Applejack sat on her bed with a depressed and betrayed mindset; she was a laughing stock at Canterlot High. Everyone was laughing about her old 'piggy wiggly' nickname which was posted online by a MyStable user by the name of 'Anon a Miss'. It included pictures that could have only come from Sunset Shimmer's phone.
She regretted giving the girl a second chance but she owed it to Twilight to give it to her; she was the one that brought her friends back together. It was too depressing to think about. All the betrayal that she caused.
Her phone ringed on her bedside table and saw she got a message from MyStable coming from Anon a Miss. She glared harshly at the phone, thinking Sunset was using the account to mock her.
She decided to see what the snake in the grass wanted to say and opened it up.
Hi Applejack, will be home later after I finish a school project with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.
She paused, why would Sunset be spending time with Sweetie Belle or Scootaloo. A possible idea came to her mind and she did not want to think about it. She quickly typed a response:
What in the hay are you doing there? Since when do you spend time with them?
She waited for the reply and when it came it pretty much confirmed her fears:
Duh, they are my best friends AJ. You should know who your sister's best friends are. You're silly sometimes AJ.
Applejack was now angrier and more upset than ever. She quickly gathered her phone and shouted to Granny Smith she needed to go and have a long talk with Applebloom. Before leaving she sent a message to Sunset:
Sunset, I am so sorry for doubting you. If there is anything I can do to make it up to you then just name it. Speak to you later once I have a long talk with my younger sibling.
She then marched to Rarity's house where Applebloom and her friends would be spending time at. Rarity answered the door and gasped asking "oh my Applejack, what has gotten you into such a state..."
Applejack wasted no time in giving Rarity her phone and told her to read the messages she was just sent. "Looks like a conversation between you and your sister but..." Rarity stated but paused when she noticed the name of the account that was responding with Applejack.
"Do you think Sweetie Belle is involved?" Rarity hesitantly asked not sure if she wanted that question answered. Applejack gave her a look which pretty much said 'only one way to find out'. They marched to Sweetie Belle's room and opened the door.
"You are really in for it now Applebloom and you have some mighty explaining to do!" Applejack shouted startling the three friends inside who looked like they were planning an event.
"What's the matter Applejack? You seemed fine if sounding weird when we just sent messages to eachother..." stammered out Applebloom but the two older teenagers just glared at all three of them.
"I was confused because of the account that sent the message to me, I was wondering why Anon a Miss would be spending time with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle!" Applejack stated quite stern making the trio pause in fright.
Applebloom went to her own phone and sure enough she was still logged in as Anon A Miss on MyStable. "You didn't sign out Applebloom? This ruins the whole plan..." Scootaloo told Applebloom looking quite incredulous.
"Yeah, we were supposed to make sure nothing jeopardised making it look like Sunset was picking on them again..." Sweetie Belle told her only for the three to pause and realise too late that they just outed themselves as co-conspirators.
All three shared a collective gloat, "We are in trouble, aren't we Applejack?" Applebloom asked even though she pretty much already knew the answer before she asked.
Applejack gave out a humourless laugh and told them "trouble doesn't begin to describe it but I think we are owed an explanation why you did this and why you framed Sunset for this?"
2 Weeks Later
Applejack and Rarity called the others and told them what had happened, including a snapshot of the message conversation. Most of them were angry at the trio but saddened when they realised they had blamed Sunset for something she had not done.
They were even angrier when the trio admitted that in their plan to separate Sunset from the rest of them that they were planning on posting secrets that the students would be sending in.
Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle had to cater the apology party for Sunset that Pinkie Pie had set up. That was pretty much the most lenient of the punishments that they were given for the stunt.
The stunt got all three of them grounded and restricted from the school computers when they revealed that they were mostly running the account from there, they had to post a video on the account admitting it was them and apologised to everyone.
Since they had not gotten to the stage of their plan where they started posting secrets sent in from the entire school, they ended up being very lucky since it could have gotten worst.
Sunset was hanging out with her friends, they were going on a day out together to the movie theatre. A movie adaptation of the stage musical 'Benny of the Hills' had been released and Rainbow Dash had been dying to see it ever since it was announced.
It took some time before she was able to admit it to the others though.
They had gotten their tickets and snacks and went to the screening room, they had sat down with Applejack and Sunset sitting next to eachother. A thought in her head and Sunset asked Applejack "what do you think would have happened with Anon a Miss, if Applebloom had remembered to log out of the account and go into her own one?"
Applejack grimaced at the thought and told her softly "Best not think about it Sugarcube, best not think about how much things could have been worst?"
Sunset shrugged and let it out of her mind as the advertisements started.
Author's Note
I had this idea and put it on the forums page. Since no one has written it I decided to try it as a short oneshot.
I wanted this to be a series of oneshots of similar mistakes but I will leave it as a oneshot for now.
