Day 1 of Anon-A-Miss! Piggly Wiggly! CMC Meeting! CMC Agreement!

Author's Note

Took some references from the comic once more. I added deeper details for the reason of Anon-A-Miss for both Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. I also add a deeper understanding of why they would go for it despite it being from jealousy. It represents a personal feeling towards Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash.

Next chapter will be about the slumber party and day two of Anon-A-Miss with Rarity's secret. I will start on chapter 3 sometime later today or nighttime. I need more pixy stix to help concentrate.

CMC here in the Equestrian Girls dimension means Career Making Crusaders.

Hope you enjoy, thanks for the favs in advance.

Have any comments please let me know.

Have any constructive criticisms please let me know.

Have a nice day/night reading.

Day 1 of Anon-A-Miss! Piggly Wiggly! CMC Meeting! CMC Agreement!

Sunset Shimmer had woken up earlier than her friends. It is 6:30 in the morning. She enjoys watching the sunrise in the morning. When the sunlight beams on her, she feels the warmth of the sun and she feels like she is glowing with Equestrian Magic. Today she needed to wake up early at this hour to send Twilight a message in her journal. Sunset told everything about last's night slumber party and she asked how Twilight is doing. Sunset expected that for a Princess like Twilight she would be able to get an answer sometime later in the morning or about now since Twilight loves to stay up at night just reading her mind away. One thought came to her mind and it's her mentor Princess Celestia. Would she be proud of her for the accomplishments she made? Defeating the Sirens, changing into a better person/pony, having friends and most of all finding her happiness or would Celestia still be ashamed for what she'd done to Cadence when they were younger, stealing Twilight's crown, turning into a raging she-demon and enslaving the school to walk back into Equestria to conquer it. All sorts of thoughts in her head for both sides and yet she can't decide which one to lean on since both sides have good reasoning to either hate or love. Only time can tell her that but what time is telling her to get ready for another day of school with her friends cause in less than 4 days, the holidays begin. Also, it would be a good time to start waking up her friends so they can go out and have breakfast together before going to school. Sunset takes a good look at her journal to see if Twilight had sent her a message and there was no buzz or light indicating her of Twilight. Sunset sighs in happiness as today gonna mark a fresh new day of friendship and happiness. Nothing can ruin this week she thought to herself.

Apple Bloom is woken up from her slumber along with Big Mac and Granny Smith. Apple Bloom grabbed her laptop to see if anyone has liked Anon-A-Miss Piggly Wiggly post.

"Holy cow that is a lot of likes!" Apple Bloom exclaimed.

Apparently, there were over 300 likes and 100 comments of Piggly Wiggly. Apple Bloom then started texting to Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo about how they gonna get their sisters back from Sunset Shimmer and to meet them at the far end of the library to have their meeting. To Apple Bloom's surprise, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were not alright with it but curious to know exactly what Apple Bloom had in mind.

15 minutes later Apple Bloom grabbed her laptop, her phone, her breakfast and went with Big Mac and Granny Smith to the school. Like always and as a family, they go to Canterlot High first before anyone else.

It is now 7:15 in the morning. Sunset Shimmer along with her friends just left Sugarcube Corner. They just had their breakfast and talked about the upcoming slumber party at Rarity's house. Everyone was excited about that but not excited for school knowing it'll be a long day but at least they'll see each other during lunch. So like any other day, all is not as bad as it seems.

20 minutes later Sunset and their friends made it to school on time. Their next classes will be starting at 7:45 so they had a little time to spare. Apple Bloom sees them coming down the hallway. To make them believe something new and serious is happening on Mystable. To make them believe that something ain't right is to make the best impression as possible. To Apple Bloom's surprise, she saw a couple of students heading towards Applejack saying "Hey Piggly Wiggly." as they laughed away. That just gave Apple Bloom the momentum she needed as other students were already mocking her. Apple Bloom turned and ran towards her sister in a state of panic.

"Applejack! Applejack!!", she shouted while faking her pants a little. Applejack turned to her dear sister.

"What is wrong Apple Bloom?" she questioned.

Faking her pants once more "Look!"

She gave her older sister the phone showing Anon-A-Miss newest account and her first post. Applejack is now shocked and furious as she reads "Did you guys know when Aj was a kid she loved playing with pigs? OMG! She sat in the mud for hours! Her whole family calls her Piggly Wiggly cause she loves them so much! What a pig!".

She questioned how the hell did something like that was even posted but Apple Bloom told her that comment was posted hours ago. Apple Bloom told the girls that she posted that comment on everyone's page. The entire school knows about Piggly Wiggly and now Applejack has to deal with the petty insults for the next few hours or even days. How embarrassed she looked when all of a sudden other students are calling Applejack by her nickname. Rainbow questioned about Anon-A-Miss for how the hell did she ever got that secret and Fluttershy thought of how terrible it is to post something on the internet for all to see. As the school bell rang, Applejack gave Apple Bloom her phone back. Apple Bloom went with her sister to physics class.

After a few periods, it is now lunch time. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo went to the far end of the library to have their meeting. Like many times in the past few months, no one was with them and they were all alone.

"Alright girls, my plan to have our sisters back from Sunset Shimmer is to continue the Anon-A-Miss account spreading everyone's secrets. To get our sisters into hating that Sunset Shimmer is back to her old ways." Apple Bloom explained.

"Yea but," Sweetie Belle responded. "Why would this be a good way of getting our sisters back? This can be our downfall if we get caught."

"Well you are pretty good at computers and you've done so well with computer science." Apple Bloom pointed out.

"Well I have been getting better grades as of late but to use my skill to hurt someone online seems rather harsh." Sweetie Belle said.

"Was it harsh when Sunset used to blackmail everyone in the school, torture everyone by being a bully, enslaving us and verbally inflicting chaos into friendships. Splitting them apart and beyond repair?...... Huh?" Apple Bloom said.

Sweetie Belle sweated a little, "Well when you put it that way, putting something online is not as bad as what she's done in the past."

"See! That is exactly my point!" Apple Bloom nearly shouted.

"Not to mentioned," Scootaloo chimed in. "Sunset's punishment was completely unfair. Just a slap on the wrist, rebuild the wall and say sorry. If I were Principal Celestia, I would have Sunset expelled and sent to jail but I'm not her and I'm still not sure about this. Apple Bloom, what you said is true for the most part but is this how we're gonna get our sisters back?"

Apple Bloom stated, "Of course I'm sure. I already have Applejack's secret shown throughout the entire school. Tell me this Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle. When was the last time you had quality time with your sister? Scootaloo I know that Rainbow Dash isn't your sister but she treated you as her very own."

"Well," Sweetie Belle said, "the last time I had fun with my sister was one day after the Battle of the Bands...." she sighed sadly.

"As for me," Scootaloo added, "it's been a month and a half since Rainbow Dash and I had fun. Normally she would walk me home after school but ever since the Battle of the Bands, she has stopped taking me back home. She spends more time with Sunset Shimmer than I. I feel so isolated. It feels like I'm in solitary confinement. As of late, the older kids would bully me to the point since I don't have much of a protector anymore...." Scootaloo tearing up a little.

"See girls. These are the reasons why we need our big sisters back. Without them, we would become lost and distant." Apple Bloom stated. "So my question for you 2 is....will you join me?"

There was a brief pause from the two of them. Sweetie Belle is the first to speak.

"I don't know Applebloom. The party is well coming to my house and I do want to try and see if Rarity can allow me to stay with them. After all, she would not shove family out the door of a party right...?"

She questioned not only them but herself in that statement.

"Yea and I'll see if Rainbow Dash can bring me along to her house for the next slumber party," Scootaloo said.

"Well if that's how you feel then alright but please don't tell anyone that I'm Anon-A-Miss."

Both girls nodded in agreement. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle sang "Cross my heart. Hope to fly. Stick a cupcake in my eye." This signified the Pinkie Promise as it will never be broken.

Apple Bloom said with a sigh of relief, "Thanks girls and hey if things don't work out for you then I encourage you to join me with Anon-A-Miss. Together, we'll have our sisters and happiness back."

At this moment of time, Sunset, Rainbow, Fluttershy, Pinkie Rarity and Applejack were having their lunch. Applejack was telling the girls that she had to go through hell thanks to Anon-A-Miss. Seeing how Applejack is feeling and how the other students were making pig noises towards Applejack, she reminded her friends about the slumber party and how much fun they gonna have. This gave Pinkie the excitement she needed to cheer up Applejack.

"APPLEJACK!" Pinkie screamed.

"What!" Applejack shouted.

"I have an awesome idea for the slumber party tonight! An apple themed slumber party with the side of makeovers, dresses, dancing, and so much more!" Pinkie said with joy.

Rarity thought about it since it was happening at her house but liked the idea of making Applejack feel better with the whole Piggly Wiggly nickname out of her mind. "Alright!" Rarity said, "I shall design the most fabulous Apple Themed slumber party after school. It'll be so amazing it'll know your shirt off!"

Applejack was surprised to hear exactly what Rarity said. It made her feel happy. All the others nodded in agreement with Rarity and Pinkie's idea for the theme for tonight's slumber party.

"Then it's settled," Sunset said. "Tonight will be a slumber party to cheer up Applejack and it'll be a great one to remember."

"And!" Rainbow shouted, "There will be nothing but awesomeness at this party! Day 2 of the Slumber Party Stretch! Woooooo!!!"

The girls shouted in joy before the bell rang. Now that everyone is pumped up for tonight's Apple Themed slumber party nothing can go wrong.

The day went by pretty quick once school was over. Rarity and Pinkie Pie headed out to the mall to gather quite a few things for the party. Rainbow Dash already ran home to gather her things for tonight's slumber party. Applejack, Granny Smith, and Apple Bloom got into Big Mac's truck and headed home. Sweetie Belle was lucky enough that her mom picked her up to head back home. Scootaloo, however, was unfortunate. She was all alone again for the 6th straight week. She had a long walk back home since the bus doesn't take her in the right direction. She didn't even have any coins for the bus. Sad and alone once more. Scootaloo walked home.

10 minutes later Scootaloo felt raindrops hitting her head. She had forgotten her umbrella in her locker so now she'll be wet heading home. Tears were coming out of her eyes. She had never felt lonelier than the time her dad left for the military. She lives with her mom while her dad is fighting a battle in the east. Scootaloo stopped by a bus station that had protection from the rain as it rained harder than before. Not knowing how long it'll be till the rain eases up a bit, she started to cry. With no one around her to comfort, she imagined that Rainbow Dash being next to her looking down at her with those rose color eyes to ensure her that she is here and nothing bad gonna happen to Scootaloo on her watch.

At this moment of time, Apple Bloom asks her sister again if she can come to the slumber party but like yesterday, Applejack said,

"No sugarcube. Maybe another time. This is a party for my friends and I. Also it's still a school night so its best for you to stay home."

Sighing in defeat once more, Apple Bloom just hugged her sister and went to her room. She was sad that her sister still told her no but enlightened that she still have Anon-A-Miss to make things go her way. She just needs an opening and she's hoping for Sweetie Belle to chime in. She is hoping that Sweetie Belle can contribute to Anon-A-Miss. To get their sisters back, one must be taken out of the equation. In her mind, she cursed at Sunset Shimmer for making her feel upset.

As for Sweetie Belle, she called her sister to see if she can help with the slumber party tonight. Rarity accepted her younger sister's request. Now she'll be able to help out and maybe get to spend some time with Rarity along with her friends at the slumber party. What a way to start a new with her big sister with her friends as well. She couldn't wait till tonight.

15 minutes later the rain had finally stopped pouring hard enough for Scootaloo to start her walk back home. Scootaloo dried up her tears and walked only to find 2 bullies from Canterlot waiting for her especially.

"Now pay up if you don't want to get hurt dweeb!" Gilda shouted.

Tearing up a little, Scootaloo said, "I have no money to give. Please don't hurt me." She flinched.

"What?! No money!" Lightning Dust shouted.

Scootaloo then got kicked in the gut by Gilda. "Well for having no money to give to us, let us show you why we mean business."

For nearly 5 minutes both Gilda and Lightning Dust beat up on Scootaloo. Punching her and kicking her at the most. They were careful not to aim in the face so things at school don't look suspicious.

After the beating Gilda said, "Next time you're paying double if you know what's good for."

Scootaloo can only feel misery and defeat. She has no one to protect her and she herself isn't a good fighter towards the bigger kids. It's been like that for her ever since Rainbow Dash hung out with Sunset more than her. The very least she could have walked her home before hanging out with Sunset but that is not enough. Scootaloo thought perhaps she should just go along with Anon-A-Miss with Apple Bloom. She is tired of getting hurt all the damn time. She took out her phone and calls Applebloom.

Apple Bloom picked up her phone as she was checking Anon-A-Miss MyStable account. She answered, "Hey Scootaloo what's up?"

Without hesitation, Scootaloo responded, "I'm in. I'm sick of this hell hole that I'm in. I'm sick of being hurt, desperate and alone. I need Rainbow Dash to protect me. Whatever dirt you need, I'll be glad to help."

A smirk on Apple Bloom's face as she heard her best friend wanting to team up with Anon-A-Miss. "Welcome aboard Scootaloo. Now, all we need is Sweetie Belle to join in."

It is nearly 8:00 at night. Sweetie Belle had just finished helping Rarity and Pinkie Pie with the Apple Theme Slumber Party. Sweetie Belle knows about Anon-A-Miss but hasn't told her big sis. She pretends that Anon-A-Miss is nothing and enjoys the fact that she is helping and spending a little time with her big sis. Soon Fluttershy, Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash and Applejack came. All were shocked especially the desserts that Pinkie made entirely. Rarity had to go out for a quick errand to ensure the slumber party to her is perfect. As she went out of her home and into a store nearby, Sweetie Belle decided to talk with the girls for the time being. Sweetie Belle can sense that she'll be included in the party for helping her big sis and Pinkie. She couldn't wait to be part of the fun. As Sweetie Belle was talking to Fluttershy about animals and computers, Rarity came back with new fashion design for the outfits she's gonna make later in the night for a big surprise for Applejack and Sunset Shimmer. As Sweetie Belle and Fluttershy having a great discussion Rarity escorted Sweetie Belle out of the room.

"Come along, little sister, its time for your big sister and her friends to spend time together," Rarity said.

"What?!" Sweetie Belle reacted. "Why can't I stay with you and your friends? I helped out with making the slumber party perfect."

"I know Sweetie Belle and you did a good job but it is a school night and I don't want you to be in trouble with schoolwork or homework that you didn't get too so good night Sweetie Belle. See you in the morning."

Rarity shuts her door leaving Sweetie Belle outside of all the fun her big sister gets to have. Being fed up and tossed out like she's not worth it anymore made her realize that teaming up with Apple Bloom with Anon-A-Miss wouldn't be so bad. She just got kicked out of her own sister's room after helping her set up for the party.

10 minutes later Apple Bloom received another phone call. She answered it but was cut off by Sweetie Belle, "I want in on Anon-A-Miss. My own sister just kicked me out of her room. Her party after I helped make it perfect for her and her friends. Whatever you need tonight, I'll give you info if any secrets were to be spilled or something very embarrassing happens. I am fed up with this bs!"

Apple Bloom responded, "Well that settles it. The CMC is now officially Anon-A-Miss. Time to get back at our sisters and time to have quality time again".

Apple Bloom decided to give the passwords to both of her friends for when they find something good and interesting on their own. To type devious posts to share with the entire school to read. For the entire school to realize that Sunset Shimmer is to blame. Make them realize how scary being neglected can be. It was time to end the misery in their hearts from here and out.

As of right now, the slumber party is on its way.

Anon-A-Miss Rising Up! Friendships Torn Apart! Sunset's Downfall! The Findings of Scootaloo! Sunset's Desperation!

Right after Scootaloo left the library and the announcement of Scootaloo's presence, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle decided to spice things up with Anon-A-Miss. Sweetie Belle took out her laptop and saw new messages from other students who had dirt on others that wanted to share. After showing this to Apple Bloom, she was overjoyed with new ideas to post on MyStable. If they were getting their sisters back, they might as well serve justice for all the times Sunset Shimmer has tortured, blackmailed and ruined everyone in the school before her heroics came.

"Alright, Sweetie Belle, which one should we post first for Operation: Justice System?"

"Well, I have one right here about Flash Sentry."

Apple Bloom remembers that Flash used to date Sunset Shimmer so this has to be good. "Read what the message say Sweetie Belle."

"It says, Flash Sentry, more like Trash Sentry. Ever since he got dumped, all he received from any other girl is trash. Sucks to be Trash Sentry. I bet not even a trashy girl would date him!". Sweetie Belle thought it was harsh but Apple Bloom could only laugh.

"Ahahahahaha! This is golden, we have to post this Sweetie Belle."

Sweetie Belle was a bit unsure about it. Having to read out loud about a mean message didn't feel right with her. Apple Bloom reminded Sweetie Belle that this is a war between them and Sunset Shimmer. In order to win the war, there have to be sacrifices made. Apple Bloom ensured that everything will be alright.

"So Sweetie Belle, who sent that message?"

"3321LightSpeed," after taking a look at the profile, it's none other than Lightning Dust.

"Lightning Dust huh? Thank you for your services. Sweetie Belle, time to post one up."

Sweetie Belle went ahead and typed the message. Then adding a trash can picture, tagging Flash Sentry's name and finally posting it for everyone to see.

"Nice work Sweetie Belle," Apple Bloom said giving the thumbs up to Sweetie Belle.

"Thank you, Apple Bloom, for reminding me that once Anon-A-Miss starts, we will have to finish once Sunset becomes the most hated student in school. Then there will be no more redemptions and no more separations caused by her."

Both girls high five each other and searched throughout Anon-A-Miss messages and pick the ones they seem fitting, adding insult to injury.

10 minutes later, the time is now 12:30 and Sunset Shimmer just left her classroom after helping Ms. Cheerilee clean up the mess in her room caused by other students mishaps. Ms. Cheerliee is aware of the Anon-A-Miss situation but she has no clue who could it be. She's giving everyone the benefit of a doubt until there's enough evidence or reasoning to suspect someone for being Anon-A-Miss. Sunset Shimmer gave time to think about the whole Piggly Wiggly situation. She questioned who would do something like that to her friend Applejack. Who would be after her for the wrong reasons? Who could have attacked Applejack like that? The only people she could have thought of is the Sirens but she questioned that theory. How would they know about Piggly Wiggly? Sure they have been around for a long time since their banishment but still. It'd make no sense to her whatsoever. It was at that moment, she saw her friends coming up to her. Sunset ran to talk to her but the expressions on her friend's faces said otherwise.

"Hey girls, are you alright?" Sunset questioned.

Applejack had a stern look, "Sunset, do you, have you lost your phone recently?"

Sunset raised an eyebrow for that question but reluctantly answered, "No," she said as she pulled out her phone, "it's right here why?"

Applejack was pissed but like Apple Bloom had told her, there can only be one person who could have known your secrets. A family doesn't do that unless they have a purpose to why they would do such a thing. Remembering the apple family story, Applejack grabbed her phone. "Then you need to see this!" She gave Sunset her phone to see Anon-A-Miss newer post. Sunset saw and her heart stopped beating for a few moments.

Seeing Anon-A-Miss post as it read, "OMG...What a bunch of dorks! Hahaha". It also features the selfies that Sunset took last night with the clothing from the Closet of Shame.

"What?! How did she get our pictures!?" Sunset questioned and turning to her friends only to see glares and disgusted faces.

"They're not our pictures, there your Sunset. All those pictures were taken by you."

Sunset began to panic. She couldn't believe what she was hearing and what she was seeing. It had to be a dream. It just has to be.

"Wait, but I've had my phone with me all this time! How did she...," being cut off by Applejack.

"Yea, how did she? How did she know about my nickname? How did she get the pictures from your phone? It was you all along. You're Anon-A-Miss!"

Sunset Shimmer was stunned. She couldn't bring herself to react to Applejack. Her friend just accused her of doing something she would never commit. Tears started to come out of her eyes.

"We trusted you Sunset! We thought you were our friend!" Rainbow said.

"How could you do this? After all, we've been through together? After I made that wonderful outfit for you, I can't believe you were using my generosity." Rarity said as she was quieted down.

In an instant, Sunset was not willing to give up on her friends despite what they told her.

"No, wait, you guys. I didn't do this! I could never hurt any of you!" Sunset said while trying to defend herself.

"But you did!" Pinkie shouted. "You've must....just been pretending to be our friend, when all along you just after our secrets...You...You Secret Stealer!"

Sunset couldn't take it. She has just been accused of Anon-A-Miss and Pinkie Pie just called her a secret stealer. Adding insult to injury. Sunset tried once more to reason but was caught off guard by the stares of her friends. It's mesmerizing, to say the least. Silence reign for a brief second.

"No....NO! I don't know how she got this stuff but, it wasn't me. I'm not this person." Sunset on the verge of tears. She couldn't control them no matter how much she wanted to. She's tearing down with a heartache that is far more worse than the time she was defeated as a raging she-demon.

Fluttershy having the courage to speak her mind, she started shouting.

"No, you're not! You're not who we thought! You're not our friend!" After hearing what Fluttershy just said, Sunset continued to defend herself slow,

"No, I....", lost for words, "I am. I promise."

It's all she can say while looking into the eyes of Fluttershy.

"This is it, Sunset. You're not going to take advantage of us anymore. I'm sorry, but you did this to us. Tell whatever secrets you want but we don't have to listen."

Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash left as Sunset Shimmer cried on her knees in the hallway. Other students that were able to see Sunset applauded for Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Rainbow Dash for shutting up the demon.

It is now 12:45. Sunset was still crying on the floor. Holding herself together as the remaining students that didn't go to the cafeteria were taking pictures to remember. There are those who still don't forgive Sunset for the years of exposure, blackmailing and bullying. Sunset couldn't move. Her friends just dumped her. Right in front of her after trying to defend herself. Sunset pulled herself up and went to the bathroom to clean herself up. As she came in, Trixie slapped Sunset in the face as hard as she could.

"Thanks a lot, Anon-A-Bitch! Now the whole school is laughing at me for a screw up I did at a child's birthday party. I hope your happy Sunshit Shimmer!" Trixie opened the door and slammed it hard. Laughter can be heard outside of the hallway.

"Hey look, it's Trixie Pixie. Hey Trixie! Had fun getting out of the doghouse with your disappearance?"

Sunset could only imagine the humiliation that Trixie is going through and who else has to suffer at the hands of Anon-A-Miss. Sunset went to the sink to wash her face. After she wiped herself, she needed to talk to her friends again after school.

As the day went on with many new posts from Anon-A-Miss, students laughing at each other, friends breaking up due to their secrets being shown. Rainbow Dash's score on a test came up, an epic fail of Fluttershy singing skyrocketed, Rarity's fashion statement. Even Pinkie Pie's clown endorsement came upon Anon-A-Miss MyStable account. Hell came to Canterlot and all eyes were pointing at Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer is the only student in Canterlot High who could have known everyone's deepest darkest secret when she was the Queen of the school before her downfall at the Fall Formal. Sunset Shimmer is the only suspect at the school and so far, she has been neglected by everyone. Teachers are now considering Sunset Shimmer to be the prime target for Anon-A-Miss. Even Ms. Cheerliee. She started to theorize and for what her students been telling her about the years of abusement that Sunset gave throughout the school. From a benefit of a doubt to a no-brainer, Ms. Cheerlie believes that Sunset is the culprit. The school bell rang and all classes are dismissed for the day. Sunset Shimmer went to her locker, packed up everything she needs including her journal. She decided to head home and report to Twilight about everything about Anon-A-Miss and the situation at hand/hoof.

Everyone was heading home all except for Rainbow Dash who couldn't find Scootaloo. She went to Principal Celestia's office to see if she can announce Scootaloo to come to the office. Rainbow Dash knocked on the door.

"Door is open, come in," Celestia said as she was getting ready to leave. She had spare time to talk to her student or fellow teacher.

Rainbow walked in, "Hey Celestia, can you call in Scootaloo? I want to walk her back home."

Celestia sighed a little. "Oh, Scootaloo is already home. Her mom came to pick her up."

"Oh, well what happened to Scootalo then?"

As calm as Celestia can be, it'll be difficult to explain the situation to Rainbow Dash especially with her quickness in her emotions.

"Scootaloo went home early because of her father Sergeant Speedy Bullet death last night." Rainbow Dash felt tears coming out of her eyes a little. She couldn't believe that Scootaloo's dad just passed away. She now understands why Scootaloo left early then questions,

"What's gonna happen to her now?".

Celestia gave Rainbow Dash some tissues to use. Rainbow Dash dried her eyes a little then allowed Celestia to speak.

"I've told Scootaloo to take the rest of the week off. There will be time for her to mourn. I don't want her to have emotional breakdowns in the school especially Anon-A-Miss rising out of control."

"Yea, about this whole Anon-A-Miss thing, I know who's behind it and I think you should know as well," Rainbow said.

"Oh, who is Anon-A-Miss then Rainbow Dash?" Celestia questioned.

"It's none other than Sunset Shimmer and I have proof it was her as well." She took out her phone and scrolled to Anon-A-Miss newer posting. It was the pictures of all but Sunset Shimmer in ridiculous outfits posing and having fun. Celestia took a hold on Rainbow's phone and scrolled to see all the other postings as well to clarify.

"You truly believe that Sunset Shimmer is behind all of this?" Celestia once again questions but now terrified than calm.

"Yes. Those pictures of my friends only came from Sunset Shimmer's phone. No one could have gotten to it especially when all of us were sleeping in the same room." Celestia had a puzzled look on Rainbow's statement.

"Look it was a slumber party ok?"

After a full examination of the Anon-A-Miss MyStable page, Celestia sighed and handed Rainbow her phone.

"Go home Rainbow. There will be a lot of discussions about this during the winter break. I want you and your friends to not interact with Sunset Shimmer on school grounds. Got it?"

"Yes ma'am" Rainbow responded. She left her office and Celestia texted Luna to talk about Anon-A-Miss at home later in the night.

After a few moments, Rainbow Dash calls Scootaloo to see if she wanted to come with her to the slumber party at her house tonight. Scootaloo picked up the phone but gave it to her mother.

"This is Ember Light, Scootaloo's mother. Who is this?"

"Oh hey Ms. Light, I was wondering if Scootaloo would like to come over to my house tonight for a slumber party that I'm having. Can she come."

Ember Light took a good look at her daughter. Seeing the pain she endured. Seeing the misery she's dealing with, she decided that Scootaloo needed some time away from the heavy burden.

"Yea, she can come tonight. I'll have everything packed for her. Are you picking her up or do I have to drop her off?"

Rainbow became happy to know that Scootaloo will be joining her slumber party tonight.

"Don't worry, I'll be there to pick her up. It's no problem."

Ember Light sighs happily a little knowing that her daughter would have a fun time and not have the heartache she's going through right now.

"What time are you coming over?"

"At 6:30 sharp! I'll be there." Rainbow Dash hangs up the phone and jumps in the air doing a fist pump to excite her.

Scootaloo felt a tear of happiness coming out of her eye knowing that Rainbow will be coming for her but for the deal, she made with Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle may be difficult to handle but hey, at least she has Rainbow Dash now so things should be easing up for her. Scootaloo hugged her mom and went to her room. She didn't even bother looking on her computer to see if Anon-A-Miss did her job or not. She is starting to feel the joy that things were getting a bit better slowly. She's hoping for a fun night and to start things new knowing that Rainbow Dash will be watching over her now that her father rests in peace.

It is now 4:15 in the afternoon, Sunset is at home writing everything she can to Twilight. Anon-A-Miss, her friends, the feeling of being abandoned. She wrote how she got slapped by Trixie, the glares from other students and her friends, the way friendships were being torn apart, the way other students were taking pictures of her crying on the floor while being laughed at. Sunset wrote everything she can and waited desperately for Twilight to respond back but there was still no answer. The feeling of being alone was too much for Sunset Shimmer. She cried and cried about what her friends said to her. She cried what seemed like hours but it was minutes.

45 minutes later, Sunset Shimmer stopped crying. She thought of the possibilities of who could it actually be. It came clear to her and who would have done it. It was the CMC who done it. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. Rage filled up inside of her as she questions,

"How dare they?.....How dare they do this to me?! I have done nothing wrong to them!" she screamed. "I've done nothing but good intentions, I saved them from the Sirens! Now it's time to expose them now that I know who else would have done it." She said as she got her things ready. She grabbed her journal as proof that Twilight Sparkle was also informed about Anon-A-Miss, the slumber parties and everything else that has happened. She grabbed her keys and locked her door. The first place to check was at Sugarcube Corner to see if her friends are there.

It is now 5:15 at Sugarcube Corner. Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack and Pinkie Pie were sitting together while having their smoothie. Silence reigned. They couldn't believe that Sunset Shimmer is behind Anon-A-Miss. What a mistake to call her a friend. All those postings from the Anon-A-Miss MyStable page, the sheer shame that they went through. Sunset gave them hell. Sunset Shimmer came in the store. Happy she was to see her friends but remembered that they dumped her back in school. With all sorts of emotions riding up inside, Sunset took a step forward inside and her friends could only stare and glare at her.

Sunset Shimmer breaks the silence, "I know that you guys don't want to see me right now but I have something to tell you. I figured out who Anon-A-Miss really is and please before you can cut me off, just hear what I have to say."

"Get out Sunset Shimmer!" Rainbow yelled.

"Yea! You're not welcome here!" Applejack stated.

This was the response that Sunset was expecting but she went forth with telling her side of the story.

"I know who is Anon-A-Miss and it came pretty clear. I know you can think of me because of my sins in the past but you should all know that I am a change pon-person. I helped other students in class when they are struggling, I've been understanding and supportive towards you guys. For crying out loud, I helped you girls and Twilight to defeat the Sirens. Why would I toss that all away? Explain that to me!"

"Easy," Rainbow said, "Manipulation of course."

Sunset was caught off guard by hearing that.

"When you cried your eyes back at the Fall Formal, it was obvious that you wanted to gain our trust. That you wanted to start a new with us. Getting closer than you could have ever done. Twilight told us to watch you for friendship. Now we know she meant to say is watch out for the demon inside of you and let's face it, the demon been unleashed. Starting with the first post by Anon-A-Miss with Piggly Wiggly. You Sunset Shimmer are by far the worst friend I ever had in my life, I wish I'd never met you."

Tears streaming from Sunset's eyes as she heard what Rainbow Dash said. Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie just looked away. Not wanting to see any more of this.

"So for you're own sakes Sunset Shimmer, leave and never come back." Applejack said as calm as she could be.

Sunset didn't want to leave. She was not going to give up that easy.

Without hesitation, she shouted, "Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo are Anon-A-Miss!".

Sunset pants after shouting like that. Applejack and Rainbow Dash were infuriated. As for Rarity, she got up from her chair and slapped Sunset Shimmer in the face. The slap was so loud everyone in the shop can hear it.

"How dare you accuse my sister of crimes she did not commit?!"

Sunset got punched in the face by Applejack. The impact of the punch knocked Sunset to the floor.

"How dare you accusing my sister of crimes she did not commit?!"

Sunset got kicked in the stomach by Rainbow Dash. Sunset could only cough after the kick.

"How dare you accuse Scootaloo of crimes she did not commit especially when she wasn't in for the rest of the day?!" Rainbow shouted.

Sunset was quite surprised when Rainbow said that but the emotional pain was too much and the physical pain was unbearable. Each of her friends just attacked her for finding out who really is Anon-A-Miss. No more words can be spoken for Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Rarity. Sunset Shimmer got up and hobbled a little. She then reaches into her bag for the journal.

After a few moments of stabilizing herself, she spoke, "I've been telling Twilight Sparkle about this. She knows that I would not do this." She knows that Twilight has not responded back to her but for her friends, they trusted Twilight so maybe they can have a better understanding of the situation hopefully but Rainbow took the journal and threw it at Sunset hitting her in the face. She fell back and it was the last straw.

"We don't care! We know that you're trying to manipulate Twilight into thinking that you're the victim in all of this when it is you who created Anon-A-Miss. Please for the love that is all holy, Get the HELL OUT OF HERE!!!!!" Rainbow shouted.

"Yea, you traitor!" Rarity said.

"Liar!," Applejack said.

"Secret Stealer," Pinkie Pie said.

"Demon," Rainbow said.

"You are not our friend!" Fluttershy said.

Sunset Shimmer has now tasted defeat. There was nothing she can do. Her friends were already on the offensive approach. She could only do one thing and it is to RUN. Run as far as she can before she can get physically hurt. She picked up her stuff, her journal and ran to the safety of her apartment and barricade the doors shut. She was not going to come out after what has happened.

Silence reigned in Sugarcube Corner. Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash finally felt a bit happy knowing that Sunset Shimmer is gone. Out of their lives and hopefully as Anon-A-Miss rises that things could get a little better between them. As for Sunset Shimmer, she's on her bed crying her eyes out once more. Waiting for Twilight to answer. Waiting for a solution to pop up and save her friendship. Anything good is what she's hoping for.

It is now 6:15 and Rainbow Dash is on her way to pick up Scootaloo.

Pick Up! Sunset's disbelief! Sisterly Talk! Slumber Party at Rainbow's House! Little CMC Meeting!

Rainbow Dash is on her way to Scootaloo's house. After a rough time at Sugarcube Corner, she needed to clear her mind by having her sports game night slumber party rolling. At least it can be a fun night before starting to go to hell tomorrow morning. With Sunset Shimmer out of her life, it should be better for everyone. The worse Sunset could do is burn the school down and turn into the demon she is deep inside. Rainbow thought about possible ways of getting Sunset Shimmer even out of the school but for now, she can only think of ways to cheer up Scootaloo at the very least since she lost her father last night. Rainbow thought of the possible fun ways to get everyone excited especially when her favorite soccer team The Blue Pegasus will be taking on The Red Sparrows in the Universal Cup Finals. What a game that will be to treasure with not only her real friends but with the sisters of Applejack and Rarity. Making the sleepover 20 times cooler.

It's 6:23 in the afternoon heading into nighttime. Sunset Shimmer is on her bed with a pillow on her face for the sheer amount of times she screamed. She couldn't handle so much pain in one day. From Anon-A-Miss messing up her friends, getting accused of being Anon-A-Miss, disowned by friends, hurt by her friends emotionally, getting slapped by Trixie in the girl's room, getting yelled at by her friends, confronting them about the real perpetrators behind Anon-A-Miss, getting slapped by, Rarity, getting punched by Applejack, getting kicked by Rainbow Dash, last-minute effort to show them that even Twilight has known about it at the very least, hit in the face by her journal courtesy of Rainbow Dash then finally being called the worse of names by each of her friends. It was all too much for Sunset Shimmer as she cried. Not knowing what else she can do for the time being. She wrote to Twilight about all that has happened and still no word to come. All is lost for Sunset for now but something deep inside is telling her that everything will be alright. She is trying to believe in that gut feeling but the pain is overwhelming. Sunset screamed once more into her pillow before falling asleep. She overwhelmingly tired of the crying, the screaming, the emotional pain, and the physical pain.

It is now 6:30 at night. Rainbow Dash is in front of Scootaloo's house. She knocked on the door and Ember Light opens the door.

"Rainbow Dash, right on time. Please come in. Scootaloo will be down here in a few minutes."

Rainbow Dash walked inside of the house. Her eyes gazing upon the medals Sergeant Speedy Bullet earned in his time in the Equestrian Armed Forces.

"I'm sorry for your loss Ms. Light," Rainbow said lowering her head a little and paying the respect for Speedy Bullet.

"Thank you, Rainbow. It is good to know that Scootaloo has friends out there that can look out for her in times of need. I really do appreciate you inviting her to your slumber party tonight. She does need a break from the depression that's been riding up inside of her." Ember Light said as she sighed with a little sadness in her heart as well.

"Don't worry, I'll be here for Scoots when she needs me most. Also, I would look after her from time to time so she won't follow a dark path that'll lead her to impending doom."

"Thank you, Rainbow," Ember said.

As Ember thanked Rainbow Dash for a promise she knows Rainbow will keep, Scootaloo came down with all of her belongings for the night.

"I hope it's alright that your parents bring me home late in the morning since Principal Celestia told me not to come to school for the rest of the week. To come back in the new year." Scootaloo said as she kept her composure.

"It's no problem Scoots. Now let's get going."

Rainbow got up and headed for the door. Ember Light gave her daughter a final kiss on the head before she saw her daughter go off with Rainbow Dash.

"You be safe Scootaloo."

"I will mom. I love you!" Scootaloo said while blowing a kiss to her mother.

"Love you too sweetie," catches her daughter's kiss and closes the door.

"Hey Rainbow, you think that The Blue Pegasus will win the Universal Cup Finals?"

"Hell yeah!" Rainbow shouted. "I've been waiting all year to see the Blue Pegasus win the Universal Cup Finals! Every year we don't make it but this year, we're gonna win it!" Both girls were excited.

So far, walking and talking with Rainbow Dash is building the love and happiness that was taken away when her father left for war but on the other hand, she didn't really feel right with Anon-A-Miss. She would have to confess to Rainbow about it or talk to her friends Sweetie Belle and Applebloom about abandoning Anon-A-Miss. She can't afford to take another loss in her life.

It is now 6:45. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna are now home. Sharing a house together since the death of their parents many years ago. Celestia went to the kitchen to brew herself a cup of tea. To wake her mind up a little after the stress she had to inhale on Scootaloo's father death and the Anon-A-Miss ordeal. It's been a rough few days for Celestia. Hearing the laughter, the mockery, the separation between friends, the pain of students and the cries for help. Anon-A-Miss made herself known and the entire school is either fed up or happy. They couldn't make up their minds. Everyone is confused but with Rainbow Dash's prime suspect and convincing evidence made it likewise for Sunset Shimmer to be the culprit. Luna, on the other hand, had second thoughts about Anon-A-Miss and want to take things into her own matter but she is unable due to the fact that her sister forbade it. It would have caused a scene knowing the Grim Reaper is watching. Celestia sighed, poured her cup of tea and sat on the couch as Luna went to the fridge and grabbed herself a can of soda to wind down a little. Silence reigned between the two sisters until one broke the silence.

"Luna, do you really think Sunset Shimmer is Anon-A-Miss?"

After full thought and consideration, Luna sighed, "No dear sister. I do not believe that Sunset Shimmer is Anon-A-Miss. For starters, it'd be hard for her to keep up on the site as classes were in session. Then to go to every place of the school to dig up dirt to post on the internet isn't really her style. Sure she used to be a lot worse but she has come far past that. She saved us from the Sirens. The Sirens manipulated us into thinking that Sunset Shimmer was the cause for a lot of things during the Battle of the Bands. Hell, it wasn't supposed to be a battle, it was supposed to be a friendly school event, not a competition. Third, Sunset Shimmer knows how to play the game well enough not to get herself caught. Whoever is doing this, is playing a serious cyber game. Identity theft and cyberbullying. Whoever is doing this, will have to pay serious crimes. Whoever is doing this, he/she or they will have to suffer in the hands of the justice system since these cause of events crossed the line."

After hearing Luna spoke, she concurred in her statement but questions it, "I understand you Luna but what kind of hacker would go after Sunset Shimmer and her friends. It can't be the Sirens cause they are not part of the school anymore and I highly doubt that they would have the resources to create such a heinous act."

Celestia and Luna can only look at the clock as time went by. Thinking about the situation at hand. Luna taking a sip of her soda as Celestia takes a sip of her tea. Both sisters thought of what each other said. Trying to come up with a plan at the very least. Finally one of the sisters came up with a plan.

"Celestia, I may have a solution to solve this cyber problem," Luna said excitedly.

"Well, spill it out, Luna," Celestia said, curious to hear her sister's plan.

"Well dear sister, we hire a cybernetic task force to trace the electromagnetic frequencies that use Anon-A-Miss MyStable account. Then allowing them to place a tracking signal so we can hunt down the perpetrators."

Celestia is quite shocked that her sister just came up with a brilliant idea. So ingenious that it could not go wrong.

"Great idea Luna. I think someone deserves a paid day off in the new year."

Luna smiled that not only Celestia is fascinated with her idea but getting a paid day off from work.

"Question is how we gonna hire a cybernetic task force to do their job for us," Celestia said, unsure of how it's going to work.

"Leave that to me, Celestia, I have a friend that owes me some favors and would come in handy."

Celestia overwhelmed with joy a little, "Then it is settled, we'll deal with the situation at hand first thing tomorrow."

"In that case, I'd better start making some phone calls," Luna said as she went ahead and grabbed her phone, heading upstairs to talk in private.

Celestia finished drinking her tea. "Sunset Shimmer, tomorrow will be judgment time. Let's see if you are innocent or not". Celestia said before going to her room.

It is now 7:45 at night. Rainbow Dash helped Scootaloo settle into her room. The others were on their way to the house. Rainbow has a few pranks up her sleeves to make some of her friends laugh. Hopefully, her dad comes in at the right time to get pranked on. Scootaloo helped Rainbow Dash with the food, candy, sports gear, video game consoles and picking out some foam fingers to root for either The Blue Pegasus or the Red Sparrows.

"This is going to be awesome Rainbow Dash!"

"Hell yeah Scootaloo! It's going to be a blast knowing our team gonna win!"

As soon as both girls were hyping each other up, Bow Hothoof opened the door welcoming in Rainbow's friends and sisters. Rarity, Sweetie Belle, Applejack, Applebloom, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy came inside the household heading up to Rainbow's room. Surprisingly to them, Rainbow's room is quite big for everyone. Red and blue colors all around showing support for the Blue Pegasus and the Red Sparrows in case someone from the group would like to cheer on opposite ends. Everyone is present except for Sunset Shimmer in which nobody really cared. They got her running and she won't be spilling any more secrets.

"So everyone here ready for the best night of your lives!" Rainbow Dash shouted trying her best to hype everyone up.

"YES WE ARE!" everyone shouted and cheered.

"Tonight we gonna have a sports game night. Playing some video games, party games that our dear friend Pinkie brought over and finally some laughs in between...Oh, wait. I forgot to mention that we will also be watching tonight's Universal Cup Finals! Two teams squaring off in the heat of the moment. We have The Blue Pegasus vs The Red Sparrows! Pick a color that represents the team and sticks by it through the good and the bad. By sticking to the color that the team represents shows that you are not only awesome, not only loyal but shows how committed you are as a true Friend in my books.

Scootaloo couldn't be more excited that she immediately chooses the color blue. She was already a fan of The Blue Pegasus but wanted to choose it anyway.

"Alright, we have 2 for blue. I as you can clearly see am blue and wearing blue so that makes me an automatic Blue Pegasus. Anyone else wants to join team blue?"

"I do, it'll match quite well with my eyes." Rarity said as she chooses the color blue.

"That's 3! Anyone else?"

"Not me Rainbow, I've seen a lot of red especially with Apples and to see the look on your face when your team fails will be perfect." Applejack said as she chooses red.

"I'm with my big sis on that since I'm an apple and a red head."

Pinkie Pie doesn't know which color to choose so she winds up choosing both. "Hah, only Pinkie would have chosen both sides cause it's hard to choose which color to choose and which team to root for."

Sweetie Belle chose red and Fluttershy chose blue to represent.

"Alright, now that everyone picked out their color/colors," looking at Pinkie Pie, "come here to grab your colored sports gear to put on later when the game starts. Till then, let's party!"

Everyone cheered and started to party. Rainbow and Applejack were playing Galaga to see who would get the most points. Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie are playing Twister. Scootaloo went up to Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. They went outside of the room and found a quiet place in Rainbow's household to have a little chat.

"First of Scootaloo, sorry for your loss. I know how that feels," Apple Bloom said.

"Yea I'm sorry too but remember that you're surrounded by great friends here," Sweetie Belle said to ensure her friend.

"Now with that out of the way, I have something in mind to tell you," Scootaloo said with her head held high.

"Sure, what is it?" Both Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom said at the same time.

Without hesitation, Scootaloo said, "I want out of this Anon-A-Miss ordeal."

Both girls were shocked that their friend wants to bail out of Anon-A-Miss.

"Why Scootaloo? Why do you want out of Anon-A-Miss? Just yesterday you wanted in now you want out?" Apple Bloom said questioning her friend.

"I only want to join Anon-A-Miss to have Rainbow Dash in my life again. So far, my depression has been taking me down for months and finally, I have something to look forward too. Also, I have no further use for Anon-A-Miss."

"So what about Sunset Shimmer?" Sweetie Belle questioned.

"What about her? I thought the idea to get our sisters back was to turn our sisters against her and it worked. What more can we do?" Scootaloo stated firmly.

"What more you ask," Apple Bloom now feeling upset by Scootaloo reasoning to leave Anon-A-Miss. "To get rid of Sunset Shimmer once and for all. Sunset Shimmer if given a second chance can take Rainbow Dash away from you a second time. Sunset Shimmer given another chance could cost us our precious time with our sisters. Sunset Shimmer could find a way to get us caught if we don't get rid of her now. " Apple Bloom stated, confident that her words could have an effect on Scootaloo.

"You do have a point there but it is my choice to make and I choose to stand aside from Anon-A-Miss before it becomes Anon-A-Mistake. Anyways what else could you've done with the account anyway?"

Stern looks on Apple Bloom's and Sweetie Belle's face can be shown. "We decided to spice things up, to get the whole school to not rebel against Sunset but to a point where the teachers believe that Sunset is Anon-A-Miss, the Principals believe Sunset's Anon-A-Miss thus allowing her to get expelled for the times she would blackmail, expose other people and being a big bully."

Scootaloo couldn't take it. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle have lost their minds. At least Scootaloo can see the difference between good and bad. She knows that being an accomplice is bad but seeing and hearing what her friends were doing is worse.

"Sorry girls but I can't go through with what you're doing but like I promised you, Apple Bloom, I will not say who is running Anon-A-Miss. Just when you think it's enough, please deactivate the account."

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle both nodded in agreement. Once everything is done, no more Anon-A-Miss. Scootaloo sighed and went upstairs to see who's winning. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom stood to have another talk before heading up.

"So after the next few days leading up to the break, that is when we'll deactivate the account but we would have to see if Sunset Shimmer comes to school first before making any new posts." Apple Bloom stated.

"Agreed." Sweetie Belle responded. "Can't get too carried away if we don't want to be caught."

"C'mon Sweetie Belle, we gotta head back up to the party before we start missing it again."

"Right!" Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom went back to Rainbow's room.

The next hour was spent playing games. Pinkie Pie beating everyone in Twister, Sweetie Belle beating everyone in Galaga which surprised Rainbow Dash. Her highest score on Galaga was beaten by Sweetie Belle who didn't lose a life at all. Sweetie Belle is not only a natural on computers but in video games as well. The Universal Cup was about to begin. Those who went for team blue sat on the left side of the tv. Those who chose red sat at the right and Pinkie sat in the middle. Knocks can be heard on the door.

Windy Whistles opened the door, "Rainbow after the game is over, everyone needs to go to bed."

"Ok, mom thanks for dropping by," Rainbow said not wanting to look at her mom. Just focusing on The Blue Pegasus preparing to take down the Red Sparrows.

"One more thing Rainbow," Bow Hothoof opened the door a bit too wide, "Wait, dad! The..." was cut off by the sound of a big wrench hitting her dad on the head. Causing him to fall and hold the wrench.

"Where's the leak ma'am?" Bow Hothoof said before falling out.

"Oh goodie," Windy Whistles said, now he'll get some sleep. Thank you, Rainbow and have a fun time watching the game!" She said as she carried her father into the room without any problems.

"Wow Rainbow, your mom is pretty strong." Applejack said.

"Thanks, Aj, well she is the one where I got my athletics from."

"Enough chit chat! The game is about to start." Pinkie shouted.

So it has. For 90 minutes straight, The Blue Pegasus and the Red Sparrows were tied up. The score is 4-4 and next goal will solidify the team with the trophy. The game went back and forth with the heart, emotion, drama and the love of the game. Everyone was on their feet when Rolling Thunder was ready to kick the ball towards the goal only to be stopped by Lightning Blaze. The announcer was on point in the action as he saw what Rolling Thunder gonna do when the Blue Pegasus stole the ball, "Rolling Thunder passing the ball to his teammates hoping to set up a pass. Red Sparrows playing tougher defense! It's anyone's game right now folks! Rolling Thunder gets the pass he needed. He shoots he scores as The Blue Pegasus win the Universal Cup Finals!".

Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash cheered and screamed the loudest as their team finally won the Universal Cup Finals. After so many years that their team couldn't even make it that far, this year was that year. They were able to celebrate...together as sisters would. They hugged each other and fell cheering and tears of joy coming out of their eyes. As the girls celebrated, the others were getting tired and ready to sleep. After a few minutes of letting out their cheers, both Scootaloo and Rainbow decided now will be the right time to get some shut-eye. As of now, everyone is getting ready to sleep. Tomorrow gonna be a rough day but at least everyone went out in a blaze of glory. All except for Sunset Shimmer who wasn't even with them and those who chose team red.

It is now 11:30 at night. Everyone is asleep but Sunset is having a difficult time at home.

Author's Note

Trying something a little different as I'm typing, comment down below if you guys/gals like it better this way. If you do then I'll be doing a lot of editing once this whole Anon-A-Miss project is completed so that way, there will be less for me to edit especially chapter 3. My longest chapter so far.

In this chapter, it'll be more about Sunset Shimmer than the others. Thank you for waiting patiently for an entire chapter of Sunset Shimmer. I know some even though they never commented but wondered when Sunset will have a chapter of her own in this story. Now is the time and will be plenty more. Next chapter will be up soon so don't worry.

Hope you enjoy the chapter.

Comment if you please.

Have a nice day/night reading.

Sunset's Nightmare! Sunset's Reality! A Message of Hope!

Sunset Shimmer is heading to Sugarcube Corner. She steps into the shop and sees her friends. Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy. Excited she was to see them, Sunset walked towards her friends. Ready to embrace the love they have as friends they are. When her friends turned to see her, they had horrid looks on their faces. Pitch black eyes and red pupils are shown. The anger and disgust were written on their faces. Sunset gulps not sure what to say but, right before she can speak, screams and shouts flooded her ears with hatred. It sent Sunset Shimmer flying out of Sugarcube Corner. She landed in the hallway of Canterlot High. Not sure why this is all happening. As she got up, her friends were walking down the hallway. Eyes closed and paid no attention to Sunset. As they make their way, towards the next class, Sunset tried to speak but couldn't. Her mouth was gone. She tried and tried to pry it open but nothing would work. She could only watch until her friends stopped walking. When they turned back, the scenery changed.

They are now outside of the school, in front of Sunset Shimmer was the statue. The portal that leads back to Equestria. Leading back home. Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy all pointed at the statue indicating her that her time here is up. It's time for her to go back to where she came from. Sunset didn't want to leave. She wanted to stay and be with her friends no matter what. Sunset Shimmer remained where she was until Rarity slapped her in the face. The impact made Sunset move forward. Applejack then punches Sunset in the face sending her flying towards the statue. Her back is now facing the statue. Sunset coughed a lot not knowing why her friends wanting her gone. Finally, Rainbow Dash kicked Sunset in the stomach. The impact of the kick made her turn towards the statue. As she looked at her reflection of the statue, Sunset Shimmer is seeing herself as a Raging She-Demon. Her eyes started to water. Seeing herself as a monster was bad enough but her friends seeing her as one was too much for her. Sunset tried to scream but her mouth still wasn't there. Her friends opened their eyes and they are the same as before. Pitch black with red pupils.

"Traitor!" Rarity said.

"Liar!" Applejack said.

"Secret Stealer!" Pinkie Pie said.

"Demon!" Rainbow Dash said.

All the terrible things that each of her friends were saying overwhelmed Sunset Shimmer. She fell to her knees crying. She tried to talk but still, her mouth wasn't there. She can't defend herself. Her friends...her family...she is losing them all so fast. She wanted to make things right. Sunset wants things to go back to normal. She needs them. She has no one else. She's not sure if Princess Celestia would take her back. Not sure how she would fit in a world she ran away from. Not sure what else is there for her. With all of her might and willpower, she tried to scream and scream. Nothing came out. She's defenseless, alone, and scared.

Her friends decided to walk away from her. Walk back to the school. When Sunset Shimmer got up from her knees, she ran towards her friends but was stopped by Fluttershy.

"You are not our friend!" Fluttershy shouted.

This brought Sunset to tears even more. She attempted to scream and shout one more time. Her adrenaline is strong enough to break the barrier on her face allowing her to finally talk.

"Guys! Wait! Please! Don't leave me! You girls are my friends! More than that! You are my family! I will never hurt any of you! You know me better than anyone! You know that I've CHANGED!" Sunset said, finally being able to defend herself.

Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy stopped and turned around. Sunset Shimmer stand firmed. Waiting for her friends to respond. Embracing herself mentally and physically for what they might say or do in return.

We don't care! We know that you're trying to manipulate Twilight into thinking that you're the victim in all of this when it is you who created Anon-A-Miss. Please for the love that is all holy, Get the HELL OUT OF HERE!!!!!" Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy shouted in an echoing booming hatred voice.

Sunset Shimmer could not believe what they said. What they told her. Her friends Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy want nothing to do with her anymore. They simply stopped talking and went to school leaving Sunset Shimmer in the dust. Once again the scenery changed.

Sunset Shimmer is now alone. Everywhere but the school is covered in darkness. The Statue and her reflection is the only thing providing light in the surrounding area. Sunset got up to her feet. Wiping her tears away until 3 different voices came into the area. Sunset turned and saw Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. Sunset could not believe that she'll be seeing them here.

"Hey look, it's the Raging She-Demon Sunset Shimmer. Hey, Sunset tired already with the many fail attempts you have trying to get your friends back?." Scootaloo said mocking Sunset while standing on her left side grabbing Sunset's arm.

"Yea. Are you tired of trying to get what you've lost?" Sweetie Belle said standing on the right of side of her grabbing Sunset's other arm.

"How does it feel being alone? How does it feel to be neglected? How does it feel to be ignored, tossed aside and forgotten?" Apple Bloom said. Standing in front of Sunset Shimmer still in her Raging She-Demon form. "Let me answer that for you, not so good. Well to be quite honest here Sunset Shimmer, that is how each of us felt after you took our sisters away. After you saved everyone from the Sirens back at the Battle of the Bands, our sisters spend way too much time with you. Our sisters stopped spending time with us and you know what, it gave us the perfect chance to see you fall. Here you are. Going back to your old self. Becoming the monster you were always meant to be Sunset Shimmer. No one knows or believes that we had anything to do with Anon-A-Miss. You did and that is why it is your downfall. You see by going after us, taking from us, it is clear that you can't stop taking and taking instead of giving. That is why Anon-A-Miss came. For you to stop taking what's not yours anymore. Quite frankly, you did a good job assuming it was us."

Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo turned into shackles pinning Sunset to her knees and on the ground. Sunset Shimmer panicked and struggled against the chains. The chains were too strong to break. Sunset feels something horrible deep inside of her as she listened to what Apple Bloom has to say to her.

"You know it is quite funny how a monster is unleashed and yet here you are, restrained from the sins you've committed when Anon-A-Miss has shown herself to everyone." Apple Bloom said taking a bite of a red apple.

"Why...? Why are you doing this to me...? I know it is you and your friends cause you 3 are the only ones who know your sister's deepest darkest secrets. Why must I suffer...?" Sunset said. Sad and defeated in the hands of her friends and now tormented by her friend's sisters.

"Ain't it obvious Sunset Shimmer, remember all the blackmailing, exposures and bullyings you inflicted on? Remember all those times you separated friendships through hatred? Remember back at the Fall Formal when you turned the entire school into a bunch of mindless slaves? Do you remember all the wrong you have done to our world?" Apple Bloom said taking another bite of her apple.

"Of course I remember, I turned into a Raging She-Demon until Twilight and my friends came. They stopped me from a horrible mistake. They saved me from committing suicide after the Fall Formal. I got what I just deserve by rebuilding the school wall, apologizing to everyone, receiving detention for 3 months. It was a long hard fought journey to get to where I am now but I'm past all that." Sunset said, standing firm once more despite being shackled to the ground.

"You see, the punishment you got was just a slap on the wrist and not much after that. You needed a real punishment and that is why Anon-A-Miss was born to do. Serve as a justice system for the times you have done wrong for the years you corrupted everyone. Anon-A-Miss is here until you leave for good. Then everything will be back to normal. No more separations. No more betrayals and no more Sunset Shimmer."

Sunset Shimmer cried. She cried her eyes out again. She wanted all of this to stop. She wanted to end everything right now. Apple Bloom just stood there taking another bite of her apple then spits it in front of Sunset's face.

"That's for taking my sister away and having her say no to me for the weeks of ignorance when she has nothing better to do than being with you!" Apple Bloom shouted as she slapped Sunset Shimmer in the face.

Sunset tried to retaliate but the shackles remained in place. She wanted to hurt Apple Bloom. Giving her a beating unlike anyone have ever gotten a beating. Apple Bloom can only smile at the Raging She-Demon's best effort to attacking her.

"What's the matter? Does the truth hurt?" Apple Bloom said in a mocking tone. "Sunset Shimmer, remember this, your sins will always find a way to bring you down. As long as Anon-A-Miss is still active, no one will believe you and no one would trust you ever again. You've lost and WE WON!" Apple Bloom said finishing her apple. "Oh, I forgot one more thing to say, nice try thinking it was us. Our sisters know it isn't us but you don't know that for sure. We do but you don't and that's the difference maker."

Sunset Shimmer rage grew. Her power grew. Her willpower and adrenaline spiking out of control. With her sheer force and echoing screams, she was strong enough to break the shackles that were binding her. In a quick instance, Sunset grabbed Apple Bloom by her throat and choked her, holding her with 1 hand. Sweat and tears came out of Sunset's eyes as she had enough of everything that is going through her.

"ANY LAST WORDS BEFORE I KILL YOU!!!" she said in her Raging She-Demon voice.

"Just one," Apple Bloom said. "NOW!" she screamed.

Sunset Shimmer seeing Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Twilight together. Ponied up and charging up to shoot a rainbow stream of friendship at Sunset Shimmer. She remembered how it went down the last time she got hit. Without hesitation, Sunset tried to run away but she couldn't. Her feet were stuck to the ground like glue. Every time she lifted her foot, the goo from the ground pulled her feet back down locking her in place. Sunset looks back at her friends that are still charging up to shoot, Sunset struggled harder and harder. Pulling her feet off the ground. She tried to take off her boots in a last-minute attempt but proved to be no good. Her boots were locked in place. Preventing her to remove it at all. Sunset Shimmer looked back for the final time.

"Goodbye, Sunset Shimmer!" Apple Bloom said waving happily at Sunset Shimmer. "I hope we never see each other again! Thank you for being around long enough to not only save us but being the bitch you were always meant to be! Also, wanted to let you know thank you for giving me, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo the reason to create Anon-A-Miss and getting away with it as nobody believes the shit you say! Anyway have a nice trip back where you belong!" Apple Bloom said.

Sunset back to being quick to anger but turned to see her ponified friends shooting the rainbow of friendship at her. Striking her in the heart as she starts to disintegrate from the rainbowed blast. Little bits of her turning into dust. She screamed in pain as it hurt so much. The physical pain and the emotional pain was too much for her. In seconds she ends up dying.

A loud scream can be heard in Sunset's apartment. Within moments Sunset Shimmer woke up and fell off of her bed. Realizing that what she been through was nothing more than a nightmare. What a horrible nightmare she encountered. Out of all the nightmares she ever had even in Equestria, this is by far the worst nightmare ever.

"What a nightmare," Sunset pants. Checking herself and to see she's alright and checking in the mirror that she is her and not the Raging She-Demon. Sunset headed towards the couch in her living room. She needed to clear her mind after a grueling nightmare she just had. In her mind, she is trying her best to change the subject of her dream to calm herself down. Then she remembered what her friends said to her.

"Traitor!"

"Liar!"

"Secret Stealer!"

"Demon!"

"You are not our friend!"

It's all the kept on replaying in her head. Echoing as every second goes by until she realizes that her friends no...her former friends really don't want her. They really don't want her to explain anymore. They believe in those lying brats. They believe that family is first. She believes that she was part of that family but not anymore. It is now gone to waste. The level of trust, love, happiness, and friendship. They weren't really her friends. Twilight asked them to look after her. To look after the demon inside once it's been released and sealed. Sunset fought in her mind, thinking if she should continue the fight or stop before it becomes out of control. The other students in school don't trust her and not even the teachers. She theorized that both Principals of Canterlot would just turn on her without hesitation as the evidence made itself clear despite she had no intentions of creating Anon-A-Miss whatsoever. Sunset sighed in defeat, grabbed her pillow and screamed into it. Giving up in any attempts to prove her innocence. She would have to deal with the situation at hand/hoof and try to endure through the hell at her school until the break comes. She knows the remaining days at school will be tough but she'll get through somehow. She survived for years while being alone so she will do so again.

Silence reigned. For 45 minutes, Sunset Shimmer has been staring at the ceiling doing nothing. It is now 12:15 in the morning. Right before Sunset got up, a message glowed in the darkness of her apartment. She realizes that it is Twilight Sparkle that's messaging her. Finally, hope and a solution have arrived in the nick of time. As Sunset ran towards her journal, she sighed happily. Wanting to see Twilight's response but feared that she might take things to a stress level. After a long period of silence in a matter of seconds, she breathes in and opened the journal to see what Twilight has written.

"WHAT?! HOW DARE THEY DO THAT TO YOU SUNSET?! HOW DARE THEY BETRAY YOU LIKE THAT!!! I'M GONNA COME TO YOU AND BRING YOU HOME RIGHT AFTER I HAVE A TALK WITH MY FRIENDS! AFTER THAT, I'M TAKING YOU HOME TO WHERE YOU BELONG! WHERE FRIENDSHIPS EXIST AND WHERE PONIES BELIEVE IN BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THEY HURT YOU!!!! IGNORED YOU!!!! DUMPED YOU WHEN YOU NEEDED THEM MOST!!!!!! THIS IS SO UNACCEPTABLE AND UNEXPECTED OF THEM!!!! SUNSET DO NOT WORRY ABOUT COMING TO EQUESTRIA!!!! DO NOT WORRY ABOUT CELESTIA!!! SHE IS AWARE OF YOUR CURRENT SITUATION AND HAS REQUESTED ME TO INVESTIGATE ON THE SITUATION YOU'RE IN. CELESTIA WANTS YOU TO COME BACK! SHE FORGIVES YOU AND IF SOMEHOW YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, I'LL TAKE YOU PERSONALLY TO HER SO YOU CAN SEE THAT I'M NOT LYING TO YOU!!!! AS YOUR FRIEND SUNSET SHIMMER, I HAVE YOUR BACK NO MATTER WHAT!!!! Sorry for not responding to you sooner, I was dealing with a long thousand hour birthday party for Discord. Apparently, the draconaquus tradition for celebrating birthdays is by the number of years you are and that'll be the number of hours to celebrate but the point is, HOW DARE THOSE SO-CALLED FRIENDS OF OURS WIND UP DOING SUCH A HEINOUS ACT ON YOU AFTER EVERYTHING WE'VE BEEN THROUGH!! YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH!!! HOW DARE THEY TOSS IT AWAY LIKE GARBAGE?!!! I will be there at the school first thing in the morning Sunset. Your REAL friend Twilight Sparkle. "

Sunset read it loud and clear. She couldn't believe that her friend Twilight Sparkle will be coming for her. To bring her home to where real friendship exists. Where ponies believe in hearing both sides of the story. She had forgotten what was like to live in Equestria where everypony have a kind-hearted spirit and slow to anger. She remembers the good times when it was her and Celestia. Speaking of the name Celestia, she knows about the situation. She wants her home. Celestia wanting to start a new. What an opportunity presented by her friend. Her mentor and soon, her new friends that await in Equestria. Sunset yawned a little and started to pack her things. It was obvious that her friends don't want her. It was obvious that the CMC are the ones behind Anon-A-Miss but her friends are too blind to see it especially when it comes to family. Scootaloo, however, gets a pass a little but not by a whole lot after what Rainbow told her. Anyways, she gathering her things and taking some personal items to at least remember the times she has here in this alternate universe. As for the outfit that Rarity gave her, she simply threw it in the trash. Not wanting to remember her former friends.

After 20 minutes of packing her belongings, she wrote back to Twilight.

"Thank you Twilight for everything you are going to do for me. Thank you for hearing me out and being a friend that you are to me. I can't wait to see you and I can't wait to return home for the first time in a long time. I'll see you in the morning before we head back to Equestria. Your's truly Sunset Shimmer."

A smile came to Sunset's face knowing that something great is going to happen to her. First, she'll be home then reunited with Celestia. If there is any good that came from Anon-A-Miss despite losing her friends, being physically hurt and emotionally hurt, she'll be having a new life and a new chance for happiness in the world she was meant to be. Then she received 1 more message from Twilight Sparkle. Sunset opens the journal and saw what was written.

"As the power vested in me, I, Twilight Sparkle, The Princess of Friendship will never leave a friend hanging. I will never leave a friend by herself to rot. I will bring happiness and joy wherever I'm needed most. As your friend Sunset Shimmer, it is my duty as a Princess to ensure the safety of my friend and to make sure that the power of Friendship co-exists between us. You do not have to worry about being alone ever again. I will get to the bottom of this situation then I'll make a judgment call based on the facts that I'll gather in my time in both worlds. Have a good night sleep, my friend. Yours truly, Twilight Sparkle."

Sunset couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes anymore. These were not tears of sadness but tears of joy. Finally, she can be happy. Finally, she has someone to trust. Reassuring herself that she had always had someone looking after her. From the other side of course. Sunset Shimmer reread the last message from Twilight again and again until she fell asleep.

Sunset Shimmer finally fell asleep with a smile on her face. Twilight Sparkle closed her journal and turned to Spike.

"Spike, let's get packing cause when morning comes, we're gonna save a friend in need."

Spike and Twilight started to pack a few things to prepare themselves heading to Canterlot High. Sunset Shimmer is vastly asleep. The CMC and Rainbooms are asleep as well. The Principals are asleep but they have bigger plans to handle Anon-A-Miss. Everything is lining up and soon consequences will arrive shortly.

It is now 6:30 in the morning. Sunset Shimmer is waking up, the CMC and Rainbooms are waking up. The principals are waking up. Getting ready for school and finally, Twilight Sparkle and Spike are now stepping into the portal heading to Canterlot High.

Everything will not only be pleasant but now unpleasant as well for everyone.

Discord's Birthday Party! Message From Sunset Shimmer! Heated Emotions!

Author's Note

This chapter will be about hours before Twilight Sparkle and Celestia hear about Sunset Shimmer's distress call. I know a lot of you were expecting for me to type about all sorts of punishments or ways that the CMC and Rainbooms gonna have to deal with Twilight Sparkle but I have to fill in the gaps back in Equestria. Also wanted to change the scenery. Instead of the having Twilight and her friends dealing with the Hearts Warming Eve Play, I decided to have them being busy with Discord. I don't know his actual birthday so it gives me a better purpose to fill in. Something new to bring with the Anon-A-Miss fanfiction. Next chapter will be worth the wait. This one will be good as well.

Hope you enjoy the chapter.

Comment if you please.

Have a nice day/night reading.

Discord's Birthday Party! Message From Sunset Shimmer! Heated Emotions!

It is now 6:30 in the afternoon in Equestria. With only 3 hours remaining for Discord's birthday to end. It's been over 126 days 21 hours of celebrating a Draqonacuus birthday. It's a good thing that celebrating a Draqonacuus birthday like this only happens every 5 years. Pinkie Pie still celebrating like there is no tomorrow. Discord still having the time of his life with Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Twilight and everypony else in all of Equestria. Discord's birthday is a top priority so he'd used his chaotic powers to put all of Equestria into impending chaos as it is tradition to do so. All laws of physics broke. All rules of regulations were disbanded. Anything goes and the ponies of Equestria had there fun. They thought and did everything that they could have ever thought of. Of course, there will be thousands of pictures taken for everypony to remember. All Princesses were opposed to Discord's Draqonacuus Birthday Tradition but remembered that Discord is a reformed creature and it's not really every day that he can do something like this ever again as the Lord of Chaos.

Still, the Princesses honored Discord's Birthday wishes no matter how much they don't want to. They like their land the way it was. Bold, beautiful, majestic and powerful. Discord had one final saying for that matter which also allowed for his birthday marathon to commence. He basically told them by allowing his chaos to roam freely during his birthday, it'll create a level of balance in all of Equestria so the nation as a whole or the entire planet doesn't succumb to being imploded from the inside out for having nothing but harmony and no disharmony.

Pinkie Pie and Discord are now having the best time of their lives devour as much chocolate milk as they can. Pinkie Pie is many things but she can take herself to a level of Discord. Pinkie Pie and Discord became very close to each other as friends. Fluttershy watched how everything unfolds. Seeing her friend having fun and getting along with everypony possible. No more sick twisting ideas. No more chaos that causes harm to anypony. Fluttershy couldn't stop looking at Discord. Seeing him being himself. A Discord clone popped behind her not only terrifying her a little but giving her a warm received hug. Rainbow Dash having a race with Discord. Rainbow Dash has gotten even stronger and faster with chaos roaming around. She is able to fly at record-breaking speeds. It was a tie. neck and neck to see who'll win in the race of course. Discord's clones occupying everypony so he can remember all the good times together. Applejack has gotten stronger and faster too. She can crack stones with her sheer force of bucking. If there any good that can come through from this marathon of Discord's birthday is that everypony is improving on themselves while having fun with Discord. It is the least he can do since birthday parties can be boring for long periods of time.

2 hours have passed and Discord, with a snap of his fingers, brought the mane 6, Princess Celestia, Luna and Cadence alongside with Shining Armor to his house in his dimension. Everyone now finally stretching as the final hour came.

"Thank you everypony for making my birthday the best ever. Especially all those times I've missed it due to my stony prison but nonetheless, I deserved it for my past actions and now look. We're all here having a good time. We're all here celebrating for the years I missed and celebrating for the times we had together during the marathon. I am deeply sorry for the trouble I caused between all of you in the past especially with Tirek. I now know that friendship is more important than one's selfish greed. For that, I am truly thankful to have such wonderful friends and friends that can forgive. Not hold grudges but accept the reality that none of us are perfect. Sure I'm the Lord of Chaos and perfect with that but I wasn't perfect for the choices I've made in my life. Fluttershy, a toast," everypony picked up their glasses filled with different kinds of juices.

"You are my first friend that I ever have. You trusted me, you forgave me and you helped me become a new creature that I am today. A toast to Twilight Sparkle. You are the first to care about me when you surrendered your alicorn magic to Tirek despite all I have done to you, your friends and everypony. I betrayed all of Equestria but you still showed your kindness towards me even though that element goes to Fluttershy. Nonetheless, you showed me that you will not leave a friend behind no matter what the causes your friend may have committed. That shows me you cared about me and that I was blind to see it until Tirek was defeated. For that, I'm truly grateful."

Everypony cheered in celebration after Discord stopped talking. Princess Celestia has a few words for Discord.

"It is my great honor to announce Discord the Lord of Chaos as Defender of Equestria."

Everypony gasped at Celestia's words. Nopony was expecting her to say such a thing towards Discord but this brought joy to Discord. Much more joy than his entire birthday marathon.

"Celestia, I don't know what to say. This is out of the ordinary." Discord said as his body was shaking in many places throughout his home.

"How about a simple thank you then?" Celestia said assuring herself.

"Thank you, Celestia, for the honor as Defender of Equestria." Discord said firmly and proudly.

"My pleasure Discord after all what are Friends for," Celestia stated while smiling.

"As Defender of Equestria," Discord is now wearing a black mask with a black cape and a chaos defender symbol on his grey vest, "I Discord will not repeat history as a backstabber but become a Guardian of the lands. Protector of those who can't defend. Fight for what is right and aide my dear friends Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rarity when the time is right. When those with greater power consumed by hatred rises, I'll be there to put an end to their reign!" He shouted while a chaotic defender light shined behind him. Embracing the new role he's been given to by Celestia while posing as a superhero.

"If you're going to be Defender of Equestria Discord, then come by at the Crystal Empire so I can train you to not only defend but show you discipline as well." Shining Armor said with his head held high.

"Normally I would refuse and brush it off but that is the old me. The new me will listen and take advice so...I'll come by to the Crystal Empire to start my training. Thank you Shining Armor and sorry for the time that I brought Tirek to Canterlot, betraying you in front of your face while feeding Tirek the magic he...needed." Discord said, looking down at his past mistake still haunts him a little.

"No need to worry my friend. What happens in the past doesn't defy you for who you are now. The actions you take, the promises you keep and those you hold dear will defy you who you are inside. Let nothing take that away from you as long as you can learn to put things behind you and move forward." Shining said.

"Thank you, Captain of the Royal Guard. I'll be who I want to be with a side of pranks, some bitter darkness to remind myself who I need to be. Also, some devious and ingenious part of me that still makes me the Lord of Chaos of course. Discord said.

"Hey Pinkie Pie, get the cake you have for Discord. It's finally time for him to blow out his candles." Twilight said.

Pinkie Pie grabbed her party cannon and shot a 12 layer ice cream sundae birthday cake with sprinkles and cotton candy all around. There are only a few minutes left before Discord's birthday came to an end and what a way to go is by wishing Discord a happy birthday.

"Now everypony!" Pinkie said gathering her friends to sing, "Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to yooou! Happy Birthday dear Discord! Happy Birthday to you!" Everpony sang as Discord was ready to make his wish.

Discord looked at his cake. Seeing the digits 3050. He truly felt happy for the first time in a long time. After his species were all of a sudden destroyed by necromancers seeking out for blood and chaotic properties, being the last of his kind, to being isolated in a world he didn't belong, to finding ponies but ended up disliking him for the way he looked and acted with his magic, to being turned to stone after ruling Equestria for 150 years in his chaotic reign of terror, to being released from his stone prison to cause more chaos only to be stopped by Twilight and her friends, to being turned back to stone, to being released from his stone prison a second time, to turning a new leaf with Fluttershy, starting to build up a small friendship with her and the rest of her friends only to backstab them when Tirek came and offer freedom over friendship, to wind up betraying all ponies of Equestria, seeing Shining Armor fall in pain, to seeing how hurtful Fluttershy and the others were when he gave them to Tirek, to being drained by Tirek after Tirek betrays him, to be rescued by Twilight and now have a stronger relationship with everypony. Friendship is Magic. He now believes that. His wish is to protect the Friendship he has and to spread it wherever he needs to be. To save those who don't fall like he did. After making his mind, he blew out the candles as everypony clapped and cheered.

"Time for cake!" Pinkie shouted. She cuts and gave everypony a slice of cake. Everypony is now eating their cake as Discord basically took the entire cake and eat it in one bite. A huge alarm went off as everypony heard it in the room.

"My Birthday Marathon is now officially over." With a snap of his fingers, Equestria is now back to being its normal self. No chaos roaming around and the laws of physics are back in order. Everything in Equestria is back in order. "I hoped everypony here had a great time and remember this only happens every 5 years."

Everypony nodded in agreement and with another snap of his fingers, everypony returned home. Applejack is back at the barn, Pinkie Pie with the Cakes, Rarity in her boutique store/house, Fluttershy at her cottage, Rainbow Dash at her Cloudominium, Princess Cadence and Shining Armor at the Crystal Empire Castle, Princess Luna at Canterlot since its nighttime and finally, Twilight Sparkle at the Friendship Castle with Princess Celestia. He figures that Twilight would like to spend a little more time with Celestia and arrange some plans with Discord as the Defender or Equestria.

"Home at last," Twilight said, sighing with happiness as things were getting back to normal. She and Celestia embraced each other as they hugged until they see Spike running down the halls with a journal that is glowing.

"Twilight! Twilight!" Spike said, running as fast as he could before tripping on his tail. Twilight used her magic to teleport Spike to her and Celestia.

"Twilight," Spike pants, "we got an urgent message from Sunset Shimmer!"

"What?!" Both Princess's said as they heard the name Sunset Shimmer.

"Here, I'll read what it says. " Spike said while opening the book.

"Twilight! There's been a massive situation here at Canterlot High! A user on MyStable was known as ANON-A-MISS has made an impact terrorizing the school. She's been using my friends' secrets to create all sorts of problems. Starting with Applejack's secret, then Rarity's. It got worse after Rarity's secret was unleashed. Everyone in school was blaming me for the cause of it. I didn't do it. I would never do such a thing now that I'm a changed person/pony. I could never do it ever since the Fall Formal where I was reformed. Nobody believes me Twilight. I tried to talk to my friends but they neglected me. Hurt my feelings. I tried to plead and defend myself but they wouldn't listen to me. Everyone in school basically hates me! The teachers my so-called friends and their sisters have all turned their backs on me. I even figured it out who is behind ANON-A-MISS. I figured it was Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. Earlier today I went to Sugarcube Corner but they didn't want me there. I tried my best to tell them it is not me but still, they didn't listen. I yelled. Screamed out the names of who's behind ANON-A-MISS and wind up being assaulted by Rarity Applejack, and Rainbow Dash! They defended their sisters and literally kicked me out!! I can't! I can't! go back into the darkness! They see me as the RAGING SHE-DEMON I was once was. Everyone sees me as a monster. I do believe that the Principals at Canterlot High will turn on me! Hopefully not but I don't know! I don't know what else I can do! I'm basically giving up here! PLEASE IN THE NAME OF CELESTIA! ANSWER THIS MESSAGE!!!! I NEED HELP!!!!! I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN COME TO EQUESTRIA KNOWING THAT CELESTIA WILL NEVER FORGIVE ME OR MIGHT DO SOMETHING DRASTIC TO ME FOR THE WAY I WAS WHEN I STOLE YOUR CROWN!!!! PLEASE TWILIGHT!!!! I NEED HEEEEEEEEEELLLP!!!!!! "

Spike then closed the journal and catches his breath after reading in character. Princess Celestia and Twilight Sparkle are now irate. After hearing what Spike just read. Discord felt a disturbance and teleported to Twilight and Celestia wondering why they are so filled with anger. Spike just gave Discord the journal and read it to himself. He was quite surprised and he too got angry at the situation Sunset Shimmer in despite not meeting her in pony.

"HOW DARE THEY?!!!!!!!!!!" Celestia said as she transformed into her Sun Flare form.

Discord quickly grabbed Twilight Sparkle and Spike. Putting them in a ring of defense as Celestia bursts the entire area in flames. The flames were so hot that gave Discord a new tan.

"Thank you, Celestia, for the new tan but I must say, you have to calm yourself before you end up frying Twilight's Castle." Discord said as he is trying to calm down the sun goddess.

"THEY HURT MY SUN!!! MY SUNSET SHIMMER!!! MY STUDENT!!! MY DAUGHTER!!!!" In another outburst, Celestia flames grew on her mane turning yellow, red and white in motion. Her eyes are pitch white with orange pupils. Celestia is now ready to kill. Ready to fight. Ready to bring Sunset Shimmer home and scorch the world that brought nothing but pain and suffering. "I'M GONNA MAKE THEM SUFFER!"

Twilight couldn't hold back the rage filling inside of her. She too transformed into a Sun Flare. She too is now out for blood. Rage controlling both Princesses, rage was on their souls, vengeance in their hearts. Discord with a snap of his fingers put both Celestia and Twilight to sleep stopping them from making a grave mistake.

Few hours have passed. Twilight Sparkle and Celestia woke up from their nap. Discord alongside with Spike was next to them ready to greet them from their slumber.

"Wha...what happened?" Twilight said as she stretched her body.

"You and Celestia went into a Sun Flare transformation after hearing what was going on with Sunset Shimmer and her situation. I had to put you and Tia to sleep or else the two of you would have done something vile for you to regret for the rest of your lives. I did what was necessary to do Twilight." Discord said.

"Thank you Discord for stopping us from getting out of control in the nick of time. Now for more important matters. " Celestia said turning to Twilight.

"I want you and Spike to make a journey and bring Sunset Shimmer home. Write to her about the message she sent. Tell Sunset that there is nothing for her to worry about. I'll be here to make sure everything is alright. Also, I want you to investigate the situation she's in. Her school does need to be liberated and to end the stream of hatred once and for all. You make the judgment call and whatever you need, our Defender of Equestria shall assist you. " She winked at Discord.

"Alright Princess Celestia, I'll get to it. Soon everything will be better for Sunset Shimmer and everything will go fine at Canterlot High. After I knock some sense into those idiots that betrayed my friend, your daughter Sunset Shimmer." Twilight said as she stands firm and saluting to her teacher before walking off to a different room with Spike.

"I'll teleport you to Canterlot Celestia, I'll stay here and occupy Twilight's Friendship Castle for the time being. Watching over and protecting everypony. "

"Thank you, Discord. " Celestia smiled as Discord teleported her back to Canterlot.

It is now 12:15 in the morning. Spike brought over a quill with ink for Twilight to use in her response to Sunset Shimmer. After she reread the message without transforming into her Sun Flare transformation she started to write to Sunset Shimmer. Delivering her response.

"WHAT?! HOW DARE THEY DO THAT TO YOU SUNSET?! HOW DARE THEY BETRAY YOU LIKE THAT!!! I'M GONNA COME TO YOU AND BRING YOU HOME RIGHT AFTER I HAVE A TALK WITH MY FRIENDS! AFTER THAT, I'M TAKING YOU HOME TO WHERE YOU BELONG! WHERE FRIENDSHIPS EXIST AND WHERE PONIES BELIEVE IN BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THEY HURT YOU!!!! IGNORED YOU!!!! DUMPED YOU WHEN YOU NEEDED THEM MOST!!!!!! THIS IS SO UNACCEPTABLE AND UNEXPECTED OF THEM!!!! SUNSET DO NOT WORRY ABOUT COMING TO EQUESTRIA!!!! DO NOT WORRY ABOUT CELESTIA!!! SHE IS AWARE OF YOUR CURRENT SITUATION AND HAS REQUESTED ME TO INVESTIGATE ON THE SITUATION YOU'RE IN. CELESTIA WANTS YOU TO COME BACK! SHE FORGIVES YOU AND IF SOMEHOW YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, I'LL TAKE YOU PERSONALLY TO HER SO YOU CAN SEE THAT I'M NOT LYING TO YOU!!!! AS YOUR FRIEND SUNSET SHIMMER, I HAVE YOUR BACK NO MATTER WHAT!!!! Sorry for not responding to you sooner, I was dealing with a long thousand hour birthday party for Discord. Apparently, the draconequus tradition for celebrating birthdays is by the number of years you are and that'll be the number of hours to celebrate but the point is, HOW DARE THOSE SO-CALLED FRIENDS OF OURS WIND UP DOING SUCH A HEINOUS ACT ON YOU AFTER EVERYTHING WE'VE BEEN THROUGH!! YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH!!! HOW DARE THEY TOSS IT AWAY LIKE GARBAGE?!!! I will be there at the school first thing in the morning Sunset. Your REAL friend Twilight Sparkle."

Twilight finished writing her response and sighed. Hoping that the wait wasn't too long for Sunset Shimmer.

"Don't worry Twilight, I know things seemed bad right now but trust me, everything will be alright. You gotta have faith in our friend Sunset Shimmer to pull through." Spike said as he grabbed a chair to sit next to Twilight. Soon after Sunset Shimmer responded back.

"I'll read what Sunset Shimmer said, Spike."

"Ok then," Spike said looking at Twilight.

"Thank you Twilight for everything you are going to do for me. Thank you for hearing me out and being a friend that you are to me. I can't wait to see you and I can't wait to return home for the first time in a long time. I'll see you in the morning before we head back to Equestria. Your's truly Sunset Shimmer."

"Sounds good Twilight and she's ready to come home. I can't wait to see her and the reaction when this whole thing is over and she comes back to Equestria making new friends. Also, I bet she'll make a great student for you to have to teach the ways of Friendship."

That statement Spike said does give Twilight a good idea. Something Sunset Shimmer could look forward to in her new life back home in Equestria. What a surprise it shall be.

"Thank you for the idea, Spike. After all of this is over, we'll do what you want for the entire day. How does that sound?"

"Good to me!" Spike said excitedly.

"Ok, I just have to write one more message to Sunset Shimmer before we can start packing."

"Sounds good to me. I'll get started with the essentials." Spike hopped out of his chair and started to pack.

"As the power vested in me, I, Twilight Sparkle, The Princess of Friendship will never leave a friend hanging. I will never leave a friend by herself to rot. I will bring happiness and joy wherever I'm needed most. As your friend Sunset Shimmer, it is my duty as a Princess to ensure the safety of my friend and to make sure that the power Friendship co-exists between us. You do not have to worry about being alone ever again. I will get to the bottom of this situation then I'll make a judgment call based on the facts that I'll gather in my time in both worlds. Have a good night sleep, my friend. Yours truly, Twilight Sparkle."

Twilight then closes her journal and turned to Spike who is already done packing what they need.

"Let's get some sleep, Spike. Tomorrow gonna be a long day." Twilight said yawning a bit.

As Twilight Sparkle and Spike got ready for bed, Sunset Shimmer is vastly asleep. The Rainbooms and CMC were sleeping. The Principals were asleep but they have bigger plans to handle Anon-A-Miss. Everything is lining up and soon consequences will arrive shortly.

It is now 6:30 in the morning. Sunset Shimmer is waking up, the CMC and Rainbooms are waking up. The principals are waking up. Getting ready for school.

Twilight Sparkle and Spike are now awake. They got their things together.

"Ready to not only save Sunset Shimmer, bring her home and stop the madness of this Anon-A-Miss from getting more out of control?" Spike said.

"More than ready Spike. I'm prepared for it!" Twilight shouted as she and Spike walked through the portal heading to Canterlot High.

Wake up! Meet Ups! Principals Cybernetic Task Force Meeting! Big Trouble! Assembly to Confess!!!

Twilight Sparkle and Spike are traveling through the portal heading to Canterlot High. Sunset Shimmer is awake. She gathered her belongings and left her apartment. Not wanting to look back or anything as she walked to Canterlot High. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal woke up earlier to head off to school for an early morning meeting with the Cybernetic Task Force. They have intentions of stopping Anon-A-Miss by the end of the week before the break comes. The Rainbooms alongside with Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom are now awake. Scootaloo, however, was still vastly asleep. Celestia told her to not come to school so later today, she'll be dropped off at her house by either Bow Hothoof or Windy Whistles.

It is 6:35 in the morning. Windy Whistles and Bow Hothoof are up making breakfast for the girls.

"Mornin everyone. " Applejack said as she stretched her arms.

"Morning Applejack." Everyone but Scootaloo said.

"Today gonna be another rough day at school but as long as we stick together like a family, we'll get through another day of hell and we'll another night of having a slumber party at Fluttershy's house!" Applejack said as the other girls quietly cheered not wanting to wake Scootaloo up.

"So let's get ready and start going to school." Applejack said.

"First!" Rainbow shouted but not too loud to wake Scootaloo up, "I gotta fix my door. I rigged it for safety. Anyone who opens it would be..." she was cut off by her dad Bow Hothoof when he opened the door.

"Hey Rainbow you want bacon on your..." Rainbow's door opened wide enough for a bowling ball to hit him in the nuts. "OH! OHOHOHOHOHOOOO!" Bow Hothoof cried out as he's holding his crotch before falling back. Then another bowling ball hits him on his belly.

"Dad! Are you alright?!" Rainbow shouted, worried about her dad.

"FINLAND!" It's all Bow Hothoof can say.

"Sorry, dad but you have to remember that there are reasons why I set up traps during the nighttime," Rainbow stated.

"I know sweetie," Bow flinching a little. "It's because of a couple of burglars who tried to kidnap you and take our valuable belongings. I understand completely."

"Wait, hold up, you were nearly kidnapped Rainbow?" Applejack questioned.

With a stern look on Rainbow's face and remember when she was small, a group of people tried to take her away. "It's something I don't feel like talking especially with Anon-A-Miss lurking behind every shadow."

"I understand Rainbow. Hopefully when Anon-A-Miss goes away, then you'll be able to tell us the whole story." Applejack said. Assuring Rainbow Dash that there is nothing to worry about.

Bow Hothoof got off the floor and headed towards his bedroom. "If you need me, I'll just be taking a cold bath for the next half hour."

The girls except Scootaloo got dressed and headed to the kitchen. Each of them ate their breakfast. Pancakes with bacon and/or sausages with apple juice and orange juice to choose from. Windy Whistles let everyone know that she'll be taking Scootaloo home in the afternoon today. After everyone finished eating, they gathered their things for school and started to walk together as a family. Things are looking bright for the Rainbooms, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom as the sun shined on them. Making them feel so alive and well.

It was at this moment of time, Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna were on their way towards Canterlot High. As they opened the doors to the school. The Cybernetic Task Force was right behind them. Celestia and Luna escorted them to their office for important matters. Also, Twilight Sparkle and Spike came out of the portal. Twilight is wearing a purple coat, purple leggings, purple knee boots and a scarf. Spike was wearing a sweater. Twilight looked around and see her friend Sunset Shimmer walking up to them carrying her duffle bag.

"Twilight!" Sunset shouted while waving her hand happily.

Twilight and Spike ran towards Sunset Shimmer and hugged each other. Twilight can feel the tears of her friend Sunset Shimmer as they hugged and embraced.

"Twilight, I am so happy to see you here," Sunset said.

"Yea, sorry I couldn't be here sooner. I'll explain on the way back to Equestria." Twilight said as calm as she can be.

"Alright then. Let's get out of here then." Sunset said. Wanting to leave as soon as possible.

"Not just yet. I need to talk things through with Principal Celestia first. After that, I'll bring you home to where you truly belong. There will be no more running away or being separated from your real friends. Also, new ones are waiting to see you. That includes Discord." Twilight stated.

"Discord as well? Why would Discord want to be friends with me?" Sunset questioned.

"Discord is no longer the Lord of Chaos. With his new sworn duty in Equestria, he is now known as the Defender of Equestria. Spreading Friendship far and wide so that way no creature could ever be alone." Twilight said smiling at Sunset Shimmer.

Sunset Shimmer is shocked, to say the least. An evil tyrant known as Discord reformed and now becoming much greater than he used to be. That being said in her mind makes her see that Discord is going through what she went through after the Fall Formal. She and Discord have some things in comparison. Perhaps they can be best of friends. What a great way to start picking up some new friends.

"Alright Twilight, I'll go to 2 of my classes. That should give you 90 minutes for you to speak with Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna." Sunset said. Happy as a bird ready to spread its wings.

"Thank you Sunset and sorry for what they did to you. In the meantime, head to your first class and pretend that I'm not here until it's time." Twilight said. "Also Spike will accompany you."

"That's right and if anyone has any bright ideas, I'll bite and claw them in their eyes for what they have done to you," Spike said defending her friend.

"Thank you, Spike," Sunset said gratefully. She took Spike and headed inside the school.

"Now it's time to get to work," Twilight said to herself. She went to the school and headed off to the Principals' office.

A few moments ago when Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna stepped in the school, the Cybernetic Task Force followed them into their office. Getting ready to have their meeting.

"I want to say thank you for coming on short notice," Luna said.

"Well when you owe a friend a favor for so many years, it'll be my pleasure to help out once more," Chrysalis said. The leader of her Cybernetic Task Force.

"So Chrysalis, how fast can your squad be able to pick up the electromagnetic frequencies in our school to determine who's Anon-A-Miss?" Celestia questioned.

"Well Celestia, it'll take up 2-3 hours to decode and find the perpetrators behind Anon-A-Miss. That is why we are called the Changelings. We're able to change the process of cyberspace quite fast and we are able to detect anyone who is hacking, using identity theft, launching codes and so forth. Also, this is why my skills as a master coder and hacker gave me the title The Queen of Cyberspace!" Chrysalis said. Standing firm and saluting to her squad. "All we need to know is who do you think the suspects are and we'll do the rest from there."

"So far we have one but might as well give you the whole list of students who are fit to qualify for such a heinous act. I even include the list who we believed to be innocent." Luna said as she gave her friend the list of names.

"Good. Then we'll be able to cross out the names who aren't Anon-A-Miss. Thank you for the list and we'll get back to you once we find our results." Chrysalis said. As she went back to her squad and left her office. Spreading out through the school finding good locations to not be seen or heard as they worked.

"See Tia, I told you this will work. All we need now is patience." Luna said.

Twilight went up to the Principal's office door. She knocked to see if anyone is there.

"Door is open. Come on in." Celestia said. Readying herself to see who's coming in.

Twilight opened the door and walked into the office. This shocked both Celestia and Luna. Their hearts skipped a beat. They are wondering why Twilight Sparkle is here. What is her reason for being here? They are hoping that there isn't a magical crisis happening once more in the school. That is the last thing they need on their minds especially Chrysalis and her Cybernetic Squad is present.

"Twilight, what brings you here to our world?" Celestia said as calm as she could despite sweating a little.

"I've come here to let you know that I'll be taking Sunset Shimmer with me back to Equestria. With Anon-A-Miss spiking out of control, her friends...no...former friends assaulted her and abandoned her when she needed them most. Other students assaulting and laughing at her. There is so much pain here that it's taking things to another level. Someone here is Anon-A-Miss. Sunset figured it out but no one believes her or understands her. Too blind and full of hatred to see the truth. I am here to solve this situation at hand/hoof. I know who Anon-A-Miss is and I pray that I am wrong because if I'm right. If Sunset is right about all of this then there will be serious consequences here. Once I issue that part out, you two are not to interfere with what I do or say for the matter. Believe me. What I say or do may be just merciful. If my teacher were here, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU, THIS WHOLE SCHOOL AND EVERYONE IN CANTERLOT WILL BE SCORCHED OFF THE FACE OF THE PLANET!" Twilight said finishing her statement.

Celestia and Luna dared not to speak. Eyes widen in horror. Hearing what Twilight just said and she's being mercy. How lucky they are and how horrified they are by the actions of their own students to do such a heinous act. How deranged their students must be for creating Anon-A-Miss. Celestia can only put her hands on her face and look away as she just couldn't believe what was being presented to her. Moments ago there was hope and now there is fear. Luna, on the other hand, remained silent. She didn't want to speak. She just took all that Twilight had said and it struck her down knowing how lucky they are to be alive.

"If you excuse me, I have to look for my friends and have a long discussion. Don't even bother giving them a late notice or anything. They'll get what's coming to them." Twilight said. She's still irate from Sunset's journal message and how she feels about her friends' counterparts are towards Sunset Shimmer.

"Wait! Before you go! There is something you have to know!" Celestia said. Trying to get Twilight's attention which it worked. Twilight turned around but didn't say a word. Just crossed her arms and hear what Celestia had to say, "My sister asked her friend a favor. Her friend is known as Chrysalis Queen of Cyberspace. She and her squad are looking for Anon-A-Miss as we speak. They'll need time to find out who she really is."

"Well, that's the first good thing I heard from this school. I'll let things be but remember, your dealing with me from here and out. Understand?"

Both sisters nodded in agreement. They were both scared to death not wanting to displease the Princess. Twilight grabbed the door handle and slammed it hard as she walked out of their office. The force of the slam broke the door entirely. Both sisters sighed but were relieved that no one is going to die today.

10 minutes later, Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom headed off to the library. There was something they needed to discuss alone. Rarity and Applejack kissed their sisters on their heads and watch them go off. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinke Pie, Applejack, and Rarity decided to go back outside but to the soccer field. They wanted to talk to each out there while everyone else still hasn't arrived from school yet. Twilight saw the group heading outside. She decided to follow them. Once she sees her friends sitting on the bleachers she walked towards them. Pinkie Pie saw her friend Twilight coming.

"Hey, girls look! Twilight is here!" She gasps "Is there a magical problem happening here in our school?" She questioned out loud.

"Probably not Pinkie but I bet she's here to liberate Sunset Shimmer as the demon she is!" Rainbow stated.

Twilight heard that which infuriated her more than ever. As she got closer. Applejack was the first to greet her.

"Howdy Twilight, are you here to help us with Sunset Shimmer?" Applejack said.

"Yes, I am." She uppercuts Applejack on the chin so hard it sent her flying back to the bleacher seats.

"Twilight?! Good heavens! What are you doing?!" Rarity said, shocked to see Twilight using violent force on her friend.

"What you think? I'm helping Sunset Shimmer for you." Twilight said.

Applejack got up and rubbed herself on the area Twilight uppercut her at. Rainbow Dash charged at Twilight but Twilight was well prepared for this attack. She grabbed Rainbow and used her speed to knock her down and back to her friends. Rainbow fell hard landing on her back.

"OW!" Rainbow shouted. Fluttershy got scared and asked.

"Why are you doing this to us?! Why are you attacking us Twilight?! We are your friends?!"

After hearing what Fluttershy said, Twilight turned to her. Her magic grew as she turned into her Sun Flare transformation. Twilight now has fiery flaming hair and an orange aura surrounding her. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity were holding each other. Scared to death by Twilight's new transformation.

"Why you ask?! Well, I'll tell you why?! I told all of you to look after Sunset Shimmer while I was away. To teach her the ways of Friendship and you just threw her under a bus when she needed you the most. Friends are supposed to stand up for each other!!!! Friends are supposed to help one another!!! Friends are to defend each other, fight together and work things out!!!! I'm here because all of you made a grave mistake!!! I'm here to fix this bullshit you put Sunset Shimmer through!!! Unlike any of you, I listened to Sunset!! Right now there is an INVESTIGATION and you better hope that ANON-A-MISS is not exactly who Sunset Shimmer said to be!! If it is them then you'll all burn in TARTARUS!!!!! I don't care what happens to you here!!! AS THE POWER VESTED IN ME, I TWILIGHT SPARKLE, STRIP THE MAGIC OF FRIENDSHIP OUT OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU HERE!!! YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO PONY UP EVER AGAIN!!! NEVER!! As for your magical problems that'll happen here in the near future, I will not come and save you. You'll be on your own. Whatever happens here is no longer my problem. You've lost an ally. You don't deserve my help after you girls threw a friend in need away. To leave behind as a friend was crying right before your very own eyes." Twilight shouted at her friends.

The girls were terrified, horrified and words cannot express for how they feel. They are hoping all of this was a nightmare but Pinkie Pie pinched herself. What they were seeing and hearing is as real as its going to get. Tears streaming on everyone's but Twilight's eyes. They were crying.

"Please Twilight! Don't hurt us. You have to listen, there is an explanation for all of this!" Rarity said. Pleading and begging Twilight to listen and show mercy.

Twilight looked at Rarity and slapped her in the face. The slapped made a temporary burn mark on her face. Rarity screamed in pain. The others dare not questioned their fiery friend. They can only look and wait to see what she'll say next.

"I'm going to say what Applejack said to Sunset when you abandoned her, you can explain your reasons all you want, I don't have to listen." Twilight said, standing her ground as it was engulfed in flames.

Silenced reigned. No one had an answer to Twilight. They all remembered how Sunset Shimmer was trying to defend herself. Explain to them about Anon-A-Miss. How they neglected her because the evidence was right there even though she had no intentions of creating such an account. It was obvious to point the finger at her for all the times she did wrong in the school. The sins that she created. It seemed too easy to assume Sunset Shimmer as the culprit but they did. They basically gave her a bad name, hurt her physically and mentally. Now the tables are turned but this time, it's not about Anon-A-Miss. It's about friendship and they're getting a hard learned lesson by the Princess of Friendship herself. What a disgusting taste in their mouths.

"Ok Twilight, we've got what we deserved. A hard learned lesson about friendship. We're sorry for makin you upset. Please let us go. We have to go to class." Applejack said while making an excuse to leave Twilight.

"You are not going anywhere!" Twilight stated. Scaring the crap out of Applejack. "I'm not finished with you yet! You and the rest of you are not going to see Sunset Shimmer!!! You are not going to make things right!!! Not after what you all have done to her, physically and mentally!!! Remember all the hateful words you said to her? TRAITOR, LIAR, DEMON, SECRET STEALER, and YOU'RE NOT OUR FRIEND!!! Let that sink into your minds as you picture yourself as Sunset Shimmer. Being all alone and scared. Not knowing what else to do. That is what you'll have to remind yourselves as the ignorant, thoughtless, cruel beings you are when someone needs help." Twilight powered down from her Sun Flare transformation. Calming herself down long enough after releasing her hatred towards the counterparts. Releasing the amount of stress that bottle up inside. Knowing that a friend of hers was set aside to rot.

"You better think about what you have done and make sure this doesn't happen again in your lives. Like I said. You are stripped of your magic. You are no longer to pony up and you know what? You girls are lucky that I'm showing you mercy. That I'm allowing all of you to live because if it was for my teacher Princess Celestia, she would have scorched your world killing all of you in the process. Let that sink into your thick skulls. Hopefully, this is the last time we'll ever see each other. Goodbye...forever." Twilight said as she headed back to the school.

Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were all crying. Crying because they are nothing. They caused a lot of trauma to Sunset Shimmer, they cause a lot of physical pain and mentally damaging her. They allowed their sisters to persuade them into thinking Anon-A-Miss is Sunset Shimmer with compelling evidence and reasoning. Now they hoped that the ones who told them about Anon-A-Miss aren't the ones behind it. Otherwise, more hatred and questions will be answered.

Around the same time when Twilight Sparkle followed her friends outside to the bleachers, Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom went to the far back of the library. Like many times before, it is only them.

"Apple Bloom, I think now it would be a good time to deactivate Anon-A-Miss." Sweetie Belle said.

"Why Sweetie Belle? Things are getting started. Look everyone is laughing at Trash Sentry. We have to keep this up. Just until the break comes." Apple Bloom said.

"I want to end it while we're still ahead. We played our cards right. If we deactivate the account now then everyone here will think Sunset Shimmer is changing tactics. Then everyone will see that Sunset Shimmer truly is Anon-A-Miss. Problems solved!" Sweetie Belle said. Holding her head up high.

"Well, you do make a pretty good argument. And I'm tired of erasing my history on both my phone and computer so sure why not. Today," as Apple Bloom grabbed her laptop, went to Anon-A-Miss profile account. "Anon-A-Miss will be retiring." After she said that, the account is now deactivated. No more Anon-A-Miss. Little did they know that Chrysalis was able to pick up a transmission from the school's library. She is outside on the roof with her laptop. Sending in messages to each of her comrades.

"This is Queen Chrysalis reporting in. I have a lock on Anon-A-Miss's signal in the school. Now taking a photograph imager sending it to Thorax. "Thorax, I want you to take the photograph imager and check off the list based on the MyStable account until we find a match."

"Yes, my Queen. I shall get to it pronto." Thorax said as he got into MyStable and searching through all the names to cross out the innocent from the guilty.

"Pharynx I want you to send an email to Celestia letting her know that the culprit has been found in the school. Once Thorax has identified the culprit, I'll go to Celestia's office so she can announce the students responsible for this madness." Chrysalis said as she headed back inside the school heading towards Celestia's office.

"Copy that my Queen. Sending the message as we speak right now." Pharynx said as he sent the message to Celestia. He packed his laptop and went back into hiding before anyone can see.

After scanning through all the names on MyStable, only 2 came up Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. After matching their profile pics with the one from the photograph imager, it's a perfect match. Thorax radios Chrysalis.

"Chrysalis, we found a perfect match. The names are Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. I repeat the names are Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. Over?" Thorax said as he packed up his laptop.

"Names are confirmed in my database. Thanks for the assistance boys. Now go into hiding. As the rest of you, I want you to hack into Anon-A-Miss and find if anyone been giving Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle any dirty to post online. Names, emails, anything to trace in the school's database and in the servers that'll lead to many expulsions. Do I make myself clear?" Chrysalis said.

"Yes, ma'am!" The rest of the Cybernetic Task Force said. Thorax went into hiding so no one can see him.

Chrysalis is now in Celestia's office. She sees the expression on her face as she read the email. She is lost in so many ways. In all her years of training, fighting against those who oppose Canterlot by using the deep webs for evil purposes, Chrysalis have never seen anyone in a state of shock. Anon-A-Miss really made her marks. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle broke so many different laws that she and her crew were called in to take down a teenager's plan to ruin everyone's lives in school. Chrysalis can't wait to see how many different excuses the culprits can make up for their crime. Crime doesn't pay and justice is served. After a brief moment of silence. Celestia waited until the right time to make her announcement.

35 minutes later the students of Canterlot High were in their classes. Sunset Shimmer was in her geometry class. The students around her were throwing stuff at her every time the teacher looks away. Sunset couldn't wait to go home to where she belongs. An announcement was finally made.

"Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle can you please come into my office. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle please come into my office." Celestia now filled with rage and disbelief. She still couldn't believe that Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle would ever do such a thing but they did. The evidence doesn't lie.

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were both nervous about being called into Celestia's office all of a sudden. They were hoping to hear news about Scootaloo or something. Anything that is not about Anon-A-Miss. Once they entered the office, there was a cold chill in the office. Chrysalis standing next to both Celestia and Luna looking down at the perpetrators.

"You want to see us, Principal Celestia?" Apple Bloom said.

"Is it about Scootaloo?" Sweetie Belle said hoping to change the subject.

"No. Absolutely not. It is about you. Now tell us the truth Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle. Did you create Anon-A-Miss?" Celestia asked.

"Uh no we didn't." Apple Bloom said. "You should be asking Sunset Shimmer. She's the one who would do such a thing." Applebloom stated.

Chrysalis slammed her hand on the table. She scared both Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle.

"The two of you are lying to us!" Chrysalis said.

"How do you know about that? You have nothing on us!" Apple Bloom shouted with her head held high.

"Well, this is why I'm here. My name is Chrysalis. Queen of Cyberspace. My job is to enforce the best Cybernetic Task Force in all of Canterlot. In all of Equestria as a Nation. We are the best of the best when it comes down to hacking and tracking for the right purposes. I found a signal within the school and took a photographic image of the culprits. I found who Anon-A-Miss is and I know its the two of you. Now tell me this," she tossed a folder with the photographic imager inside. "are you going to lie to us about that's not you and there is a glitch in the system?" Chrysalis stated. Her arms crossed ready for an answer from the two of them.

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle couldn't believe they were caught red-handed. They were going to receive the punishment of a lifetime.

"Wait! There's one more person who decided to join in with us on Anon-A-Miss! Her name is Scootaloo!" Apple Bloom pleaded.

Chrysalis laughed. "Wow ratting out your friend so you won't be the only ones receiving punishment. How cute" She applauded mockingly.

"It's true! Ask her yourself!" Apple Bloom pleaded once more.

"Your friend gets a pass," Celestia stated.

"What?!" Both Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom said.

"Scootaloo called me yesterday on the phone to confessed that she worked with the perpetrators of Anon-A-Miss. She never said who it was though but I guess she was protecting the two of you. Anyway, Scootaloo confessed she was an accomplish with Anon-A-Miss by telling Rainbow Dash the truth of reasoning into thinking that Sunset Shimmer is behind all of this but she still got her punishment. It is not as bad as the two of you are going to receive." Luna said in a stern tone. "Scootaloo is getting triple the amount of homework and she has to write about the difference between good actions and bad actions."

Apple Bloom could not believe it one bit. Her friend Scootaloo getting a pass while she'll have to suffer a lot.

"Why else is Scootaloo getting a slap on the wrist punishment?!" Apple Bloom said. Not happy at all.

"It is because she confessed her sin and the fact she is mourning a loss. You and Sweetie Belle will have to confess to the entire school about Anon-A-Miss. Then you will have to talk things through with...your family and...Twilight Sparkle." Celestia said as calm as she can be without looking at the face of Apple Bloom.

"Twilight...Sparkle...is here?" Sweetie Belle questioned.

"Yes. She's here and she's not pleased with everything that the two of you have done. You committed serious crimes that'll get you locked up in prison for the rest of your lives." Luna stated giving Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle a death glare.

Chrysalis received a message from Thorax.

"What is it Thorax?"

"My Queen, we have a situation in the classroom where Sunset Shimmer is in. There's a riot happening and we need back up!" Thorax said sitting in the shadows of the room where the riot is breaking out.

"Crap, there's a riot going on in Sunset's classroom. I'm gonna get the rest of the guys and bring all of the students into the gym. We're having an emergency assembly right now." Chrysalis said. Grabbing her baton and taser.

"Ok but please don't hurt my students," Celestia said.

"By order of the Equestria Cybernetic Task Force, I am allowed to use necessary force but I won't injure them. I'll scare them into thinking that I am. Get those two behind the stage and you Luna. Tell this Twilight Sparkle that all of her questions will be answered in the gymnasium. "

"Yes, Chrysalis. I'm on it." Luna said as she watched her friend gather her comrades and headed in the direction where Sunset Shimmer's geometry class is at. "Twilight Sparkle please come into the office," Luna said.

45 minutes later, the all of the students were sitting in the gym. Not knowing why everyone needed to be there. Chrysalis came marching in with all the troubled students that started the riot, trying to attack Sunset Shimmer came in with handcuffs behind their backs. They all hated the fact that they're handcuffed for their own good. Sunset Shimmer was brought back with Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle calmed herself down after seeing Sunset Shimmer with a black eye and some scratch marks on her face.

"Pharynx! Thorax! Make sure these idiots don't act up. If they do, you have the right to take them to juvenile hall." Chrysalis commanded her comrades.

"Yes, my Queen!" Both men said as they saluted to their Queen.

"Wow, Queen Chrysalis here is still a Queen but for the right purposes," Twilight said.

"I know, I couldn't believe it myself when she and her comrades apprehended the students who started the riot," Sunset said.

"Student's it is my honor to inform you that we've caught the perpetrators of Anon-A-Miss. The names are Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. There the ones behind Anon-A-Miss a few days ago."

The students in the gymnasium burst into laughter until Chrysalis slammed her fist down on the stand where the mic was silencing the crowd. She then takes the mic for a serious matter.

"All of you in here, SHUT THE HELL UP!" she shouted.

Silence reigned. No one dared to make a peep.

"Good. That'll teach all of you respect when someone speaks to you about something important. My name is Chrysalis. Queen of Cyberspace and commander of my Cybernetic Task Force known as the Changelings. It is up to us to find the perpetrators behind Anon-A-Miss. An hour ago we were able to pick up a signal from the school. We took a photographic image and we found out who exactly is Anon-A-Miss in disguise. Their names are Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. They are at this stage. You are going to hear from them. Then my comrades will come to each and every one of you that associated with Anon-A-Miss giving out secrets about others to expose. Don't even try to hide or lie because if you do, then I have access to lock you up in juvenile hall myself. There you'll be sent to court and finally, the judge will determine your worthless fate. Do I make myself clear?!" She shouted.

Everyone just remained silent. Not wanting to speak at all.

"Good. Now Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle will share a few words about their reasoning behind all of this. If any of you come up on this stage to attack or threatened them, you'll be dealing with me! Is that clear?!"

Once again, there was nothing but silence. Everyone was scared.

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle made their way up to the stand. There, Chrysalis gave the mic to them. Apple Bloom was first to speak.

"I created Anon-A-Miss for several reasons. One reason is that I was jealous. Jealous that my sister Applejack was spending more time with Sunset Shimmer. She barely has time for me. It's been like that ever since the Battle of the Bands. Whenever I tried to ask my big sister, she kept on saying the same thing over and over. No. Another time Apple Bloom. My friends need me right now. I promise we'll have a sisterly bond. A sisterly fun day. Well, she's been telling me no for the past 6 and a half week! I was so sick of it!!! I tried to hang out with her but FRIENDS were more important about family! Big Mac couldn't hang with me because all he did was sleep all day after working on the Apple Farm! What am I supposed to do! I was bored for weeks after school! It was so worth it making everyone turn on Sunset Shimmer!! I was worth the trouble because all I wanted was to spend time with my big sister. I don't care if I get locked up in juvenile hall or sent to prison! I really don't care!!! No one cares about me in my family so why should I care about them!!! Also, I didn't lie to my sister. I told her that an apple will never betray another apple in the family unless there's a greater purpose for that to happen. Well, guess what Applejack?! I already have a purpose!!!" Apple Bloom stopped shouting. Stopped talking after letting her anger out.

Applejack was on the verge of tears after hearing her sister do all of that. Said all of that after being neglected by her. All those times Apple Bloom wanted to be with her big sister and she told her no. Brushing it off like it was nothing. Applejack felt she was stabbed in the heart. Betrayed by blood but she thought of what if the roles were reversed. She imagined herself in her shoes. She would have done something different but the anger was there. Applejack felt sick to her stomach. Applejack doesn't know if she should apologize to her sister or choke her to death. Either way, deep down inside of her, there was nothing but a shattered heart.

Sweetie Belle grabbed the mic from Apple Bloom and started to talk.

"I joined in on Anon-A-Miss with Apple Bloom because not only I was jealous of Rarity spending a lot more of time with Sunset Shimmer but because she kicked me out of her slumber party after I helped to make it perfect for her and her friends to enjoy. I created an apple scavenger hunt game for them to play, Thought of the places to hide the apples, thought of the riddles. Hell, I even used my skills and digitally drew out apple designed posters and stickers to hang on the walls and ceilings. I was going to ask Rarity to let me stay with her but what she told me was heartbreaking. Come along, little sister. It's time for your big sister and her friends to spend time together. It is a school night and I don't want you to be in trouble with schoolwork or homework. When Rarity said that to me, escorted me out the door to have fun, it broke my heart. I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream but I couldn't I've found salvation with Anon-A-Miss and I was ready to dig up some dirt to expose and get my revenge. I'm the one who took Sunset's phone and downloaded to my computer so I can post the next trend for Anon-A-Miss. It felt good seeing you all sad and heartbroken cause now you know how I felt! Rarity! You are by far the worst sister I ever grew up with!! I hope I never see you again as long as I live!!!" Sweetie Belle said. Releasing her anger and giving the mic back to Chrysalis.

Rarity burst into tears. Her Sweetie Belle, her sister hated her for what she did. She can't get that image out of her mind. Escorting Sweetie Belle for all the hard work she's done out the door. It replayed in her mind as she screamed in pain. Emotional pain. Rarity, not wanting to see or hear anymore, she quickly got up and ran out of the gymnasium.

"There is one more student who was part of Anon-A-Miss but she gets a free pass. Her name is Scootaloo. She called yesterday to confess. She already explained the only actions she has done. She only told Rainbow Dash about Sunset Shimmer's manipulation. She stretched the truth but she never posted anything on the internet therefore, she gets a free pass. Also, she's in mourning. She lost her father Sergeant Speedy Bullet in the war on the eastern side of the world. The punishment is already given to her as we speak." Chrysalis said as calm as she is now.

"Kill her mother too so she can feel what real punishment is like!" A random student shouted.

"You've been warned! Pharynx! Take that son-of-a-bitch out of here! He now has a date with Papa Bear behind bars!" Chrysalis commanded.

"Yes, my Queen!" Pharynx said saluting to his commanding officer. He took the student out of the gym and escort him to a different room where he'll be waiting for the rest of his comrades to take him away.

"Now that idiot is gone, there is someone else who will be speaking to you," Chrysalis said handing the mic to Twilight Sparkle.

"Thank you Chrysalis, Queen of Cyberspace. Ahem. It is my deepest regret that I must inform all of you that this will be the last time you'll be seeing me and Sunset Shimmer. After today, I am shutting the portal down. Whatever magic entity lies here in your world will be your own problem. Not mine and not Sunset Shimmer. All of you are nothing but a disgrace as a species. All of you hate more than love. I hope each and every one of you remember that a world filled with hate will bring nothing but pain and suffering. If you think what I'm saying is bad the take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Also, all of you never gave Sunset Shimmer the chance to defend herself. All of you jumped the bandwagon hate train and you know what, you are far worse than the Sirens. Right now all of you would have been the perfect buffet if they had their amulets. Oh wait I forgot, Sunset Shimmer saved you from them when she helped us defeat them. I hope your happy because this is the last you can feel any sort of magic from this school. Goodbye and good riddance. "

Sunset Shimmer knew she was right. She was happy to see the miserable faces of every student in the school. She is now able to go home. To start over in a world she was meant to be.

"Twilight, can we go home now?" Sunset asked.

"Yes Sunset, it is time to go home," Twilight said smiling and hugging Sunset.

Right now Chrysalis is escorting all of the students back to their classes except for those who started the riot, Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash. Also, she's taking Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle into a different room to discuss a matter of things.

Twilight, Sunset Shimmer headed down the hallway. Sunset needed to grab a few things from her locker. As she opened her locker, she grabbed her journal and a sleeping Spike.

"I had to put him in here since my teacher is allergic to dogs," Sunset explained.

"Well, now we all get to go home and forget about this place."

Twilight Sparkle carried Spike in her arms walked next to Sunset Shimmer who was carrying her duffle bag. After one final look at the school, Sunset stuck the middle finger at the school as she and Twilight stepped into the portal.

Chrysalis is now speaking with the trouble-making students and now speaking with the victims of Anon-A-Miss.

Author's Note

Quick Disclaimer: There is a huge difference between cracking and popping your knuckles. Cracking means that you're breaking your fingers while popping means that you're getting ready for a fight. I learned that a while ago by a Youtuber known as Matthew Santoro in his 50 amazing moments to blow your mind. You'll see why I said that as you read the chapter.

This is chapter will be more about pain and suffering for everyone in Canterlot High. Rainbooms, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle even Scootaloo. Life lessons will be given out, a new chapter in life starts. To endure and survive the corrupted atmosphere caused by Anon-A-Miss and the followers that gave Anon-A-Miss some heavy dirt. Secrets that were not to be unleashed for the public eye. Also, there will be a new set of pain. Another loss for the matter but something brighter will come and make its way.

Hope you enjoy the chapter.

Have a nice day/night reading.

Words of Advice! Family Meeting! Another Loss! New Family Part 1!

Chrysalis has put all the Students of Canterlot High into 3 different sections of the school. Pharynx would be talking to the students that were guilty of aiding Anon-A-Miss with dirt to expose to the cafeteria. Thorax would take those who were innocent enough to have a long talk in the library and Chrysalis took The Rainbooms, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom to the teacher lounge. The teachers will be cleaning up the gymnasium and will remain there until Celestia and Luna give them the signal to leave.

Pharynx had to deal with are Lightning Dust, Gilda, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Trixie, Garble, Rover, Fido, and Spot along with the rest of the school's troublemaking students that are qualified. There are a lot of troublemakers in the area so Pharynx has the rest of the Cybernetic Task Force standing by in case a riot were to happen.

"Alright, listen up! You are here because of the stupid shit you caused in your school screwing everyone up with secrets. Secrets that are not meant for the public hearing. Secrets that are supposed to remain hidden. You like to cause or stir up trouble then you'll be sent someplace where it is contained. I'm talking about jail. You should all feel ashamed for the humiliation you put others through. You may not be the ones who posted on Anon-A-Miss but gave Anon-A-Miss the info to do so. That makes you an associate. Not good when freedom is on the line. You are playing a deadly game. An internet warfare. Cyberbullying is a serious crime within our nation. Anon-A-Miss is a perfect example of Cyberbullying. What you have done can get you locked up. If it was up to me, I will put you all in juvenile hall but Chrysalis figured that the youth should know what is right and what is wrong so that way you idiots don't make the same mistake twice. This is your only warning. Take it like your life is depending on it. If I see all of you again. I will not be happy. You will feel nothing but pain and shame because if I do see you, you'll be behind bars depending on what the Judge's verdict. I hope you understand that this is not a game." Pharynx said in a calm but stern tone.

The students in the room were quiet but Diamond Tiara knows that her daddy can bail her out of jail no matter how much the money gonna cost so she is thinking of revenge against Scootaloo for getting a lighter punishment. Diamond Tiara feels she doesn't deserve this kind of treatment. Sure she said tons of insults but she had anything to do with Anon-A-Miss.

"Excuse me," Diamond Tiara said, "why am I here. I had nothing to do with Anon-A-Miss or even associating with her!"

"You're here because you seem fitting as a troublemaker. According to some teachers of yours and picked up the surveillance cameras in your school. I found evidence of you teasing other students for being rich, being a bully and laughing at other people's misery. That is why you are worthy enough of being a bully. That is why your here to learn. That is why I'm telling you this life lesson. Guilty or not, everyone still needs to hear it." Pharynx said, answering Diamond Tiara's question.

"Fine then." Diamond Tiara said crossing her arms and looking the other way.

"As for the rest of you, do not make another mistake out of rage and hatred. If you do then it'll be the end of all of you. You may go to your next class but I hope to never see any of you again." As Pharynx said that, the others left the cafeteria. Not feeling any guilt at all.

"I finish my task, my Queen. I'll see you later." Pharynx said as he and the rest of the Cybernetic Task Force were last to leave the cafeteria.

"Before you can leave, that student who shouted earlier in the gymnasium, take him home to his father. I'm giving you the address to go." Chrysalis said while texting the address to the student's home.

"Yes, ma'am!" Pharynx said heading down to the detention hall to take the student home.

Thorax is now at the library. Octavia, Lyra, Vinyl, Bon Bon, Snowflake, Flash Sentry, Derpy, Snips, Snails, Micro, Sandalwood, Cloud Chaser, Flitter and Gizmo along with the rest of the students that were innocent in all the drama caused by Anon-A-Miss.

"Alright everyone, reason, why all of you are with me, is because I have a message to tell all of you about Cyberbullying and how we as a society can not only conquer it but help one another in times of trouble. Starting with the blame game situation. If you know someone who can cause a lot of pain but is a changed person, it is not wise to assume that person of the cause. Never assume because you make an ass of yourself. For you to make a judgment call, you need to hear on both sides of the story, not just one. Otherwise, the justice system would be corrupted and there will never be any fairness. If you know a person who does a lot of wrongs but trying to make a right, that person is innocent until proven guilty. If you know someone who does a lot of good but does something bad, that person is also innocent until proven guilty. Can't just make the call immediately. It takes time to find all the evidence just like it took us time to find the culprits. Mistakes can happen to everyone but it is not wise to jump the boat and call them out of the flaws of that mistake. I make mistakes but instead of laughing or judging me, its either I correct myself or others helping me to correct myself. That is how a level of trust can be made. If you know someone that can be the cause it is ok to be suspicious but not ok to be the law. Now the second thing I want to say is Cyberbullying is a serious cause of an effect. Online there is no stopping anyone from doing what they want. Anyone in this room who has access to the internet can put or say anything to hurt someone really bad. Due to actions like that, there has been an uprising of suicides. Students, friends, kids, adults, parents can all be a victim of suicide. This is why cyberbullying is bad. Cyberbullying is taking things to the next level. Anon-A-Miss has taken things beyond the level. Anon-A-Miss posted a lot of harmful stuff that is hurting a lot of students. Others who think it's funny will mock the person for having his/her secret out for fun. That can cause a lot of trauma mentally. The post could be about anything that'll hurt someone so when you see someone teasing due to a post and knowing that it is cyberbullying. Help that person who is in need. You can be the hero he/she need at the moment. Saving a life from cyberbullying is a great cause. I encourage any of you who has a kind-hearted caring spirit to lift that person up from a deep dark depression he/she may be going through. Third, I encourage all of you to make a new group. A Guild that fights against cyberbullying and help those who are affected by it. I encourage all of you to make a stand and be the heroes who can put an end to hate and corruption in your school. Start bringing in the love you have and spread it all around. To make your school into a sanctuary of peace, love, and kindness. No hate, no corruption, no lies and no spilling secrets. The last thing I want to say is, I do appreciate you all who stayed out of Anon-A-Miss and do appreciate that you didn't feed Anon-A-Miss with secrets or dirt that can cause more problems. You may go to your next class but I want to see you guys and girls creating the guild and post it on the school's network so I know for sure that you've taken my words of advice." Thorax said finishing his message.

The students in the library talked among themselves. Taking everything that Thorax said. After a few moments, they all finished speaking and turned to Thorax.

"Thank you for the words of advice and the life lesson we needed to hear. So we as a unit could spread the joy, love, peace, and trust within our school. Taking the next steps forward into rebuilding the trust level within our school. Making our school a better place to go for making friends and having a good education. Our school's reputation is now on the line after Anon-A-Miss risen up and had its downfall." Lyra said smiling as everyone else did.

"Thank you for telling me this," Thorax said, thanking Lyra to be the voice of the group.

"We even came up with our Guild's name." Bon Bon said.

"Please tell me your Guild's name," Thorax said excitedly.

"Our Guild's name is known as The Changelings!" Everyone shouted.

"Wow! I...no..wait!" He turned on his communicator to Chrysalis. "Chrysalis, the students here have something for you to hear. Something important and I think you should hear it."

"What is it Thorax?" Chrysalis said in her communicator.

"Hi Queen Chrysalis, my name is Lyra Heartstrings. Thorax told us his message and he also told us that we should start a guild to fight back against Cyberbullying. After a few moments of discussions, my friends and I agree on making a Guild. To bring the love, joy peace and trust back into our school now that Anon-A-Miss is down for good. We have the perfect name for our Guild." Lyra said. Letting everyone in the room know that they all need to say the name.

"Please, tell me what's your Guild's name," Chrysalis said, wondering what name the guild will be called.

"Our Guild's name will be known as The Changelings!" Everyone shouted.

"What a fantastic name for a Guild," Chrysalis said with a smile on her face.

"We are dedicating your team's name to our own. We feel inspired by what you and your squad can do. We feel that we can change the pace out here. We can change the scenery at our school. Eliminating the hate. Stopping Cyberbullying within our school so that way no one will be affected by the devastation now that Anon-A-Miss had fallen." Lyra said.

"You students have a bright future and I do hope that your mission as a Guild shall succeed. Anyways I have to go but good job making the first step going forward on a positive note! Thorax, I'll see you later after I deal with my group here in the teacher's lounge." Chrysalis said ending the communication call.

"Alright everyone, I wish all of you luck and if you ever need me for advice, All you have to do is send Luna a message and I'll be here to help you. She has my contact info so don't be afraid to ask her for me. I'll be happy to assist you and your quest for peace, love, joy, and happiness." Thorax said, saluting to everyone. "You can all leave."

The students in the library left and headed to their next class. Thorax packed his things and left the school. Chrysalis is now in the teacher's lounge waiting for someone to break the ice. Patience is not one of her best skills but she was willing to allow everyone in the room to have their silence after everything had been taken in from the gymnasium. Finally, Applejack broke the ice.

"Why...Why didn't you...Apple Bloom told me about how you were feeling...? Why did you do it? You know the consequences. I know what you said out there wasn't true," Applejack said as she is denying mostly everything her sister spoke in the gymnasium a while back ago. "So please tell me...tell your big sis right now why you created Anon-A-Miss now that your anger is gone."

"Applejack, what I said out there is nothing but the truth. Why would you care then and why would you care now?" Apple Bloom stated. Not facing her sister.

"I do care about you sugarcube. You are my sister and it's up to me to make sure that you were happy." Applejack said with a little of sincerity in her expression.

"Did I look happy to you when you kept on hanging with Sunset Shimmer and your friends while you were ignoring me. I've never questioned you for hanging out but I questioned why I can never hang out with you or you with them. Twilight made Sunset a priority to you while leaving family behind in the dust. When was the last time you even helped Big Mac or Granny Smith back at the farm?"

"I..uh..." trying to remember the last time she did so. "I helped Granny Smith baked her apple pies and Big Mac with the apple picking and I..." she was cut off by Apple Bloom.

"I said when?!" Apple Bloom basically yelling at her big sister.

Applejack could only sigh. She, like her friends, was spending a lot of their time with Sunset Shimmer after school hours and during the weekend. She can't remember the exact date that she helped her family. This gave Applejack a cold heart feeling deep inside. She now sees her sister's point.

"That is what I thought. Now Chrysalis, I'm more than ready for you to take me to juvenile hall." Apple Bloom said holding her hands out ready to be handcuffed and taken away.

"You are not going anywhere, Apple Bloom. Not until all of this is over. Sweetie Belle, Rarity, you have anything to say to each other?" Chrysalis asked.

"Nope." Sweetie Belle stated. "I already made my point out there. Rarity is no sister of mine anymore. I'll take on whatever punishments I take in juvenile hall. Away from Rarity and away from my family. The sooner the better." No more words are spoken from Sweetie Belle. She is ready to go as well.

"Sweetie Belle! Please! I'm sorry for what I've done to you from the other night! I'm sorry for ignoring your cries for attention! I'm sorry for everything that I put you through! I'm so sorry that I pushed you in the wrong direction..." Rarity, in the verge of tears holding to her beloved sister. Sweetie Belle could feel the guilt that she put Rarity through but it didn't matter. She did her part with Anon-A-Miss. She knows that a second chance won't come. Willingly, she accepted her fate for putting Rarity in hell. The same kind of hell that she was in for weeks without her sister.

"All I can say is sorry for the trouble I gave you. I should have just kept my emotions in and...kill myself. Saving the trouble of being alone so you can be with your friends..." Sweetie Belle said, tears streaming down her face as she turned away from Rarity.

"Don't ever say that Sweetie Belle! Don't ever think like that!" Rarity still crying while hugging her sister. "Killing yourself doesn't solve anything!"

"It would have done me a whole lot so that way there was nothing on your mind. Nothing that can stop in your way from hanging out with your friends. Making myself obsolete. Back then if I couldn't have you in my life because someone was there to take you away from me brought nothing but darkness. I listened to my dark thoughts and now look. I made things worse for you...I made it worse for me. I should have ended myself right there and then when the darkness came." Sweetie Belle said, her tone went dark and her tears came pouring out of her eyes. She then turned to Rarity. "I'm sorry for not being the sister you want me to be. It is better off that I was to go away and never come back. So I can never be a problem or a burden to you." Finishing her statement and tried to walk out of Rarity's hug but couldn't. She doesn't deserve her love anymore. She doesn't deserve a second chance. Only to be taken away and to be forgotten.

"Sweetie Belle look at me!" Rarity shouted but Sweetie Belle doesn't. Rarity made Sweetie Belle turned around so she can see her eyes. "I am so sorry for making you walk in this direction. I'm sorry for being blind and stupid. I'm sorry for making you go through with this kind of pain. There is no excuse for how I was handling things with you especially that slumber party you helped out in. I basically kicked you out and made you turn to Anon-A-Miss. I'm wrong for the things I've done and it's my fault that you did what you've done. I take all of the blame here. Please know that you are my sister. Please know that I love you. Please know that I will fight for your freedom." Rarity said assuring her beloved sister.

"Apple Bloom...I'm sorry for being a bad sister. I'm sorry for the path you ended up walking through. A dangerous once with no point of return. Please allow me to have a second chance to make things right..." Apple Bloom didn't say anything.

All eyes turned to Chrysalis as she was about to speak.

"For serious crimes that Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle have committed, I am enforced to do my duty and arrest them but with the power I have vested in me, I'm letting them go with a warning."

Everyone in the room was surprised when Chrysalis said that.

"Before you start to question why I'm letting them go with a warning is because I heard everything that was needed to be heard. Both sides of the story to see the reasoning behind the creation of Anon-A-Miss. As for you Rainbow Dash, I know that you and Scootaloo do share a sisterly bond even though you are not related to her by any means. Scootaloo told me that you basically stopped hanging out with her and escorting her home after school because her mom isn't available to pick her up and the bus doesn't take her home. It goes in the opposite direction of where she needs to go. She only joined in to get you back because she was depressed about her dad before he died. You and her will have time to talk with me in my room downtown of Canterlot."

Rainbow Dash remained silent. She couldn't believe that Scootaloo never went up to her and tell her about how she was feeling or that she did and she just ignored her. Her mind is in all places. She just couldn't think straight.

"Now, I won't be telling anyone about the magic nonsense that happens here. Unlike some of you, I can keep secrets quiet. Never to allow them to be exposed. Also, I have this to say." All eyes still looking at her.

"First of, you should never assume someone you know to be a prime suspect because of a darker history. Always be there for someone who is in need so that way he or she doesn't go through a dark path so they can get something out of it. Second always watch out for each other, never know what is going on until it's too late. Third, a family should be having fun with other families to grow together and become stronger. Last, don't EVER make this mistake again. If you do then I'll have the privilege to take you away for good. Do I make myself clear!" Chrysalis shouted making a point.

Rarity and Applejack nodded in agreement while holding on to their sisters. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash nodded as well not breaking any eye contact on Chrysalis.

"Good. You may go now but you will face punishment. All of you after your winter break so go!"

Everyone left. Rarity and Sweetie Belle went into a different room, holding and hugging each other as they embraced the second chance given to them by Chrysalis. Applejack and Apple Bloom went to another room but Apple Bloom kept her distance away. Applejack can only sigh but feel enraged by allowing everything her sister had said and done. Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy went to their next class but they were the quiet the entire time. Rainbow Dash kicked a trash can down the hallway and kept on kicking it.

"This is Chrysalis calling in, I am enforcing a stakeout at this school for the remainder of the week. To see if anything else were to happen."

"Yes, my Queen!" Her Task Force shouted.

"Good, also let's get some pizza, I'm quite hungry after a whole lot of yelling, shouting and discipline." She said as she walked out of the teacher's lounge.

Windy Whistles is now driving Scootaloo back to her home to be with her mom in mourning. They were going to see Speedy Bullets at the funeral home today. Scootaloo is happy that she got to see and have fun with her friends last night but now have to prepare herself mentally to see her father.

A few hours later, school finished early after all that has happened today. Anon-A-Miss being caught, everyone receiving life lessons, Chrysalis scaring the crap out of everyone, getting second chances and new changes that are happening to everyone. Diamond Tiara, however, was feeling vengeful. She along with other students came and have a meeting of their own.

"I think we should plan an attack to get back at Scootaloo. She's getting a lighter punishment while we have to deal with a bigger one. I say we should do something about it." Diamond Tiara said.

"Yea, that bitch owe us money," Gilda said.

"She's due for another beating for missing out for today's beating." Lightning Dust stated popping her knuckled.

"So what you have in mind Tiara?" Rover, leader of the Diamond Hunt Brothers.

"I think we should torch Scootaloo's house while she and her mom are away."

Everyone paused. Shocked to hear what Tiara just said.

"Now the reason why I say this because I know daddy will be able to bail all of us out of jail. We can get away with it and I'll have a team to burn up all the files about us being arsonists."

The group discussed among themselves. Questioning all the possibilities but seeing how Scootaloo got a light punishment, not getting paid and being the only one who didn't get scared by Chrysalis or handcuffed. They agreed on the plan.

"We're in." Everyone said.

"Good, let's get started. By the time night comes, they'll have a nice fall." Diamond Tiara laughed devilishly as the others did as well.

At that moment of time, Scootaloo and Ember Light are still at the funeral home. Ember Light told Scootaloo she can stay as long as she liked. She has to get ready for a night shift at her job. Scootaloo kissed her mom goodbye as she stays with her father. Alone in silence.

2 hours later Ember Light is home taking a nice hot shower while Diamond Tiara, Rover, Fido, Spot, Gilda, Lightning Dust came to the house. They have homemade molotovs. Each of them looked both ways to see if anyone was watching. There is nobody in sight. Not even from the windows from all the other houses around them. Little did they know that there were cameras and the Cybernetic Task Force having a stakeout at Canterlot High to watch for any suspicions that may happen with the students.

It was moment's later that Pharynx saw something on the street that Scootaloo lived on that he saw something out of the ordinary as he was checking every camera in a 50-mile radius.

"What the hell?" He questioned. Seeing what the students were doing until he saw what he couldn't believe. Each of the students throwing molotovs at what seems to be Scootaloo's house. He called in Chrysalis immediately.

"My Queen! We have a top-notch emergency!" He shouted.

"I'm all ears what is happening Pharynx?" Chrysalis said, readying herself for anything.

"On 10th Avenue and Pheonix Street, we have a couple of arsonists trying to burn down Scootaloo's house!" he shouted.

"What?!" Chrysalis shouted. "Send a message to the police! To the Fire Department! I'm going after those arsonists right now!" She shouted as she jumped out of the 2nd-floor window, landing on a tree and jumping into her car. "How long till everyone arrives?!" She questioned.

"Police and Fire Department will be there in 15 minutes over." Pharynx said.

"Send a message to Celestia and Luna pronto!" Chrysalis commanded as she drove off with her sirens going off.

"Will do my Queen." He is now sending a message to both Celestia and Luna. Then we went back to his computer and to see if he can identify the arsonist.

"Thorax I want you to drive to the funeral home where Scootaloo and Ember Light might be at. I pray that they're alright." Chrysalis commanded.

"Yes my Queen, I'm on it!" Thorax said, getting into his car and driving off. "Pharynx what's the location of the funeral home?"

"15th Avenue and Arcadios Street Thorax." Pharynx said.

"Thank you, brother. I'll let you know who I find." Thorax said as he was sweating a little. "Who would do such a thing?"

Moments before Pharynx saw the group on the camera, Diamond Tiara had a few words to say.

"Alright everyone, take your positions now and get ready to bail once the house is scorched."

Everyone nodded and went to different areas around the house. The camera that Pharynx saw through has the entire house on the screen including the group.

"Now!" Diamond Tiara shouted.

Everyone threw the molotovs at the house. As the molotov exploded, the fire spread throughout the house. Unknowingly to Ember Light, she is still taking her shower. To calm herself down and preparing herself for work, long showers seems to do the job right.

"Now everyone! Go find a hiding spot that is far from here but visible to see!" Diamond Tiara shouted.

Everyone ran in different directions. Away from the house so no one can see them and for what they committed.

The fire alarms went off in the house as Ember Light heard it go off. She got out of the shower, dried herself and opened the door. Smoke came into her lungs as she started to cough. She closed the door and soon realized that her house is on fire. She panicked. She opened the window and screamed for help. No one was in the area to hear here. She screamed one more time. Silence remained. She decided to make her way out of the bathroom and headed out the door downstairs hoping to make it. When she opened the door, smoke clogging her lungs a little but with determination, she went through. She couldn't see a thing with the smoke in her eyes and the heat of the fire is making her sweat go into her eyes. She felt something hit her leg and she tripped over. It was a chair that she tripped on. As she made it towards the stairs, Ember Light had a miss footing causing herself to fall down the stairs breaking her left ankle. She screamed in pain but was able to breathe a little better. The fire is spreading out of control. Ember Light is 2 rooms away from the door. She crawled towards the door but now the second floor started to collapse. The bathtub fell and landed on Emer Light's other foot pinning her to the floor. She screamed in pain and agony. She screamed for help. Sirens can be heard. She was going to be saved until the smoke of the fire got into her lungs once more. Coughing out of control. She didn't want to die. She didn't want Scootaloo to become an orphan. With one last attempt, she screamed loud enough. The firefighters burst through the door. Made they're way to Ember Light. Lifting the tub and took her outside. They left the house as the fire was spreading out of control. Other firefighters put out the fire as police arrived.

"Check to see if there's anyone else inside the house, " the Fire Chief commanded.

"Yes, sir!" The firefighters shouted. Going back into the fire.

As they went in, Medics arrived and checked on Ember Light.

A few moments later, Chrysalis showed up and got out of her car. She ran towards the Fire Chief.

"Sharp Shooter, was there anyone here at the house?" Chrysalis asked. Worried that she may fear for the worst.

"Yes," he stated. "A woman was caught in the fire of this home. Medics are checking on her right now."

"Thank you Sharp Shooter," Chrysalis said, she ran towards the ambulance to see Ember Light. Redheart came out of the ambulance to have a word with Chrysalis.

"I'm sorry Chrysalis...Ember Light is gone now. There is nothing more we can do for her..." Redheart said wiping a tear from her face.

"No....No...NO...NO!" Chrysalis shouted falling to her knees and slamming her fists down hard on the ground. "They'll pay.....those arsonists will burn in hell!"

"I agree with you on that." Shining Armor said.

"Hello, Shining," Chrysalis said as she got up. "How's being in command of the Canterlot National Guard going?"

"It's going well. We were on patrol when we received a transmission from Pharynx. We thought it'd be best to see what was the commotion all about. I wish we were on better grounds to discuss this than on a scene like this." Shining said.

It was at this moment of time, Pharynx called in after finding out who are the arsonists.

"My Queen, I've found out the group who is responsible for such a tragedy like this. Also, I do believe that the school needs to here another life lesson about arsonists."

"The school? Who are the students then?" She questioned.

"Gilda, Lightning Dust, Rover, Spot, Fido, and Diamond Tiara my Queen." Pharynx said. I've sent the message to Celestia and Luna but received no word from them.

Shining Armor and Chrysalis were mad. They heard Pharynx said the student's name. Shining Armor and Chrysalis both want to lock them up for what they committed. They committed murder. They burned down a house with Scootaloo's mother inside. There is now no going back. Chrysalis gave them a life lesson and now those students have entered a realm of no return.

"Shining Armor, are you up for another adventure for old time sakes?" Chrysalis asked as she reached her hand out.

"Yes I am, to teach those punks a lesson and everyone else a life lesson," Shining said as he and Chrysalis shake hands on agreement terms.

"My Queen I have some news for you," Thorax said.

"What is it Thorax?" Chrysalis said, waiting for a response.

"Scootaloo is here at the funeral home. She was waiting for a ride back to her house. What should I do?" Thorax said as he is waiting for Chrysalis to answer.

"Tell Scootaloo that she'll be heading over to the school and she'll be staying with us for the night," Chrysalis answered. "We're gonna tell her everything that has happened today."

"Yes my Queen, anything else before I go?" Thorax asked.

"Yea, buy some snacks, we're gonna need it for the night," Chrysalis said then turned to Shining Armor.

"In the meantime Chrysalis, I'll go and see if Scootaloo has any other relatives that need to know about Ember Light." Shining Stated.

"That won't do any good. Scootaloo's mom and dad had no siblings. Their parents passed away years ago. She has no family now."

"Alright then, I'll see if there is anything else I can do for that poor girl," Shining said sadly.

"Alright then and best of luck."

"Thanks," Shining said now leaving the scene.

Chrysalis went back into her car and remained there silently. She thought of the pain and suffering one child has to go through. First losing a father in war now a mother due to the arsonists of Canterlot High. Right now she wants to scorch them off of the face of the earth but right now, she needs to go back to Canterlot High and await for Thorax and Scootaloo's return.

"Ugh...This is going to be a long night." Chrysalis said. Then she got a message from Pharynx.

"Chrysalis, Celestia responded back, she'll have another assembly in the gymnasium. Right now the crew and I are setting up seats in the gym for tomorrow. We moved our campsite to the soccer fields. Tonight is going to be cleared. No rain. Hope you don't mind that." Pharynx said.

"No problem at all. Thanks for the heads up." She said now driving back to the school.

2 hours later, Scootaloo and Thorax are now at Canterlot High. Thorax parked the car in the back of the school and escorted Scootaloo to the campsite.

"Wait here and I'll bring Chrysalis, Pharynx and the rest of my friends out here," Thorax said.

"Alright then," Scootaloo said silently. She was not having a good day or night.

A Few moments later, Thorax came back with everyone. He set up a bond fire. The others sat in a circle like a family would when they were to gather around.

"Alright Scootaloo, I have some news for you to hear. They aren't great so I'll get to the point." Chrysalis said and a calm but sad tone. Scootaloo could only look at her eyes in sadness. Wanting to be with her mother. "Your mom met with a tragic accident in your home. " Scootaloo's face said it all for how she was feeling. Tears streaming down her face. Thorax offers a hug and she took it instantly. Crying uncontrollably. "As I was saying, she was killed by arsonists from this school seeking justice in the wrong way. Right now I have a friend who is working on finding you a new family and place to call home. You're in good hands as far as I can tell you." Scootaloo continued to cry uncontrollably in Thorax's arms.

"I know that things are bad but things will also get better. It'll take time but in the end, you'll find your happiness and place in this world. All of us here," Scootaloo turned and see the Cybernetic Task Force smiling and showing sympathy for her "we're also your family. Friends who look out for each other. Am I right guys?" They nodded in agreement.

"Hey, kid," Pharynx called out, "I know how bad life can be at times. It sucks and feels like we're in hell but there is a positive note here. It's a brief parting. Soon you'll be reunited with your family in the afterlife. Right now, kid, they want to see you grow, become a better you. Not for you to feel pain, not for you to suffer. What they want to see from their daughter is to be happy. In time, you'll be able to achieve that goal. Right now, it's ok to cry. It's ok to shout. It's ok to feel pain but know that the pain you have will make you stronger than before. Know that with the right people and friends in your life, you'll emerge victoriously." Pharynx said as he's cheering up Scootaloo.

"Yea, in the end, there is always a moment of truth. A moment where you'll be able to rise out of the ashes of despair. A moment in your life for you to scream, shout back at the world for all the wrong but proclaim that you can be better than this." Chrysalis said.

"Look Scootaloo," Kevin said, "we all go through tough times and there are always people out there who have cruelty in their names. There always people who would do stupid shit to make other people feel bad to make themselves look good. Then there are righteous people who do the opposite of that. What I'm and we are encouraging for you is decide on what type of person you want to be. Someone who's going to do bad after one cause or someone who'll learn and take action."

"You telling me that because of what I said to Rainbow Dash and what I've decided to do when joining Anon-A-Miss?" Scootaloo asked.

"Bingo!" Kevin answered. "We want what's best for you and we want to know which path are you going to take."

"I know that playing their game will leave me in trouble. I rather play my game. To teach and help those in need. I know I probably won't have Rainbow Dash in my life again after I convinced her of choosing Sunset Shimmer to blame for Anon-A-Miss but I now know that each of you here are now starting to become my friends, my teachers and my new family in my life. Thank you for the wise words you've spoken to me." Scootaloo said wiping her tears away. "

Everyone went in on Scootaloo for a group hug. After that, they had their very own slumber party. Looking at the stars at night, watching comets come by, seeing shooting stars, telling stories and having some good laughs to cheer up Scootaloo. Today is a hard day for her. Having to lose her family but gained a new one in return.

It is now 11:30 at night. Everyone at the school went to sleep in their tents. Scootaloo is sleeping in Chrysalis' tent. She thought last night was special but tonight, it'd became clear that something new will come out in the end after a painful loss. How lucky she is to make new friends and adding them to her family.

Tomorrow, there's going to be hell to pay and another life lesson for everyone at Canterlot High.

Another Life Lesson Assembly! Arsonists Taken Away! Confrontation of Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle! Cold Chill! New Family Part 2!

It is now the last day of the week before the winter break can begin. Everyone from yesterday didn't have a good night sleep except for the arsonists of Canterlot High and the Cybernetic Task Force. Scootaloo slept alright but now today is where a lot of questions will be answered in today's assembly. She can't wait to see who killed her mother so she has a reason to beat them up to a pulp for the reasoning behind the murder. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna were not looking forward to this day despite being the end of the week for winter break. They had to go through hell yesterday dealing with Twilight and the perpetrators of Anon-A-Miss. They had to say goodbye to Sunset Shimmer and had to think how merciful they were when Twilight told them that they along with everyone else were supposed to die. Now they have to tell the school about the law. They would have to tell everyone what can cause a psychological manipulation. Something in which they did not want to teach at a crisis like this. Also, Chrysalis and her squad would have to make themselves known. The students of Canterlot High were already scared of them and now they have to endure and survive another heated lesson about life. Things could not get any worse for the matter.

It is now 7:15 in the morning. Chrysalis received a call from Shining Armor.

"Hey Shining had a good night sleep?" Chrysalis said while trying to wake Scootaloo up.

"No, I didn't," Shining answered. "I couldn't stop thinking about what has happened to that young girl's life. Also, I went ahead and got a warrant for the Canterlot National Guard to enter the premises of the school. We need to be there to let the students know how serious the crime if for not only being an arsonist but for committing murder. I called Luna on the phone about this. Judging from her expressions on the phone, she doesn't sound too pleased but she told Celestia about my comings so things will be cleared. My men and I are taking the arsonists straight to jail. By order of Judge Royal Decree, he gave me full access to locking them up. Then from there, they'll be taken to court. Awaiting their fate. Crime doesn't pay when you play. I gotta go Chrysalis. I gotta see Speedy Bullet one more time before I can go. I'll see you in the next hour when the assembly starts." Shining said as he hung up the phone.

"Scootaloo, I let you sleep in a little, its time to wake up and please don't make me use my air horn to wake you," Chrysalis said holding one in her hands.

"Ok fine, I'm getting up. Please don't press the horn." Scootaloo said as she was waking up.

"You have 10 minutes to get ready. Kevin here will take you behind the stage so we can work things out in the assembly." Chrysalis said as she was putting on her uniform.

"Alright, and thanks for letting me bunk in with you," Scootaloo said smiling while shedding a tear.

"It's no problem. It's the least I can do for you while you were in mourning. Now I have to gather my team so we can come up with ways to impact your friend's and your classmate's life once more." Chrysalis said as she walked out of the tent.

"Hey kid, take your time getting ready and here." Kevin tossed Scootaloo an apple. "Have a little something in your belly. It's going to be a long morning."

"Thanks, Kevin," Scootaloo said taking a bite out of the apple.

It's 7:35 in the morning and Shining Armor is now at the funeral home to see Speedy Bullet. Upon entering, he saw Speedy Bullet's comrades sharing a tearful reunion. Shining went up to them. Each of Speedy Bullet's comrades told Shining of how great of a soldier he was during the war. He can only imagine the bravery and sacrifice this man-made. What a hero. Shining Armor was then surprised when he saw the Commander of the Equestrian Armed Forces.

"Commander..." Shining was cut off.

"Shining Armor, it's good to see you again. I wish you were qualified to join the Equestrian Armed Forces but fate had other plans for you."

"Yea," Shining said. "So how are you doing and what you've been up to Commander."

"Well, I'm doing terrible. I just lost my best friend in combat. He saved my life and right before he passed, Speedy told me to look after his kid...Scootaloo."

"Speedy told you to look after Scootaloo?" Shining questioned.

"Yes. That was his final words spoken to me so now I need to fulfill that promise I made to him. Where is Scootaloo?"

"At school," Shining answered, "her mom was killed by arsonists that go to Canterlot High. She now has nobody and I've been trying to look for a family to take care of her."

"I'll take her as my own. Hand me the papers and I'll sign them right here right now."

"Sure Commander." Shining gave the papers to him.

"Thank you and please don't tell anyone my name for when I arrive at the school later. I want it to be a surprise to everyone especially Scootaloo."

"Yes, Commander. I won't say a thing. Anyways when you're done, just drop them by the courthouse and you'll be good to go. I have to go to Canterlot High for the important matters sir!" Shining shouted.

"Alright then, soldier, you are dismissed."

Shining Armor left the funeral home and drove towards the school.

It is now 8:00 in the morning. All the students of Canterlot high were coming inside only to be escorted by Canterlot's National Guard. This freaked out the students. Rover, Spot, Fido, Diamond Tiara, Gilda, and Lightning Dust were petrified to see the National Guard at their school. They are hoping that they are not here for them. Only hoping that it has to do with Anon-A-Miss and they're here for Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom. When that thought came into their minds, they were at peace knowing that there is nothing to be afraid of. Once inside the gymnasium, they saw Chrysalis and her Cybernetic Task Force. Fear struck into their hearts. Fear struck into everyone's hearts not knowing what's going to happen next. The students can see the bags under Celestia's eyes as she made her way towards the stand to talk on the mic. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle was a bit skeptical but nervous. Applejack and Rarity feared that is has something to do with their sisters. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash have no idea what the hell is going on. Everyone can only watch as the doors shut behind them by 2 National Guard Soldiers.

"Students, I have a message that all of you need to hear. This message is not pretty so I'll just cut to the chase. Yesterday, our student Scootaloo, lost yet another family member." Celestia said while in tears a little.

Everyone in the audience was shocked and terrified. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle could not believe what they heard. Rainbow Dash heart sank. Now Scootaloo had no one else in her life but her. Rainbow cried her eyes out.

"As I was saying, Scootaloo's mom, Ember Light fell victim to arsonists within our school," Celestia stated. Her tone changed quickly.

Everyone among themselves was chatting. They couldn't believe that someone here would be the cause to take an innocent life away. Who would do such a thing and why?

"With that being said and done, those students have now entered the point of no return. They will face severe consequences. Our reputation as a school right now is plummeting thanks to those who have done this. Starting with the creation of Anon-A-Miss to the students that seek out justice in their own way. Now Chrysalis has a few words for you all," Celestia said as Chrysalis walked to the stage and took the mic from her.

"Thank you Celestia, now everyone here, the reason why the Canterlot National Guard is here today is since we've caught the arsonists on video red-handed. They are here to make sure no one attempts to run away. With that being said and done, I will allow Pharynx to come on stage so he can call out who did it. Then I along with my comrades will come to those Pharynx called to and bring you to the stage. Any attempt of not cooperating with us will automatically be a result of us using force and I think none of you would like to see what us Changelings can do when we have to use force."

Pharynx came to the stage and took the mic from Chrysalis. She got off the stage and headed down the alleyways of the gym.

"Well, what can I say, I warned you about the next time you'll be seeing me and you didn't listen, so this is what happens when you play the game." He took out the list of names of the arsonists that was confirmed yesterday. "Lightning Dust! Gilda! Rover! Fido! Spot! Diamond Tiara!" Pharynx shouted.

Everyone looked at the arsonists who were called out. One by one Chrysalis and her squad dragged them to the stage as they were resisting a little. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were a bit overjoyed to see their tormentor being called out. They were happy to see she would face a greater punishment unlike anyone else have ever witnessed.

"These are the arsonists that took the life of Ember Light away from Scootaloo. Thanks to them, she is now an orphan! Thanks to their justice code, they just committed murder. That is something that no one here should ever think about. Now, we have a visitor coming in to teach all of you about psychological manipulation and how it plays out." Pharynx said leaving the stage.

The doors to the back were opened by 2 National Guards allowing Shining Armor to walk in. He then makes his way towards the stage and he took the mic.

"Hello, students of Canterlot High. My name is Shining Armor. I'm the Commander of Canterlot's National Guard. I will be teaching you about Psychological Manipulation."

The students of Canterlot can only observe. They don't want to miss a thing.

"Psychological Manipulation is caused by actions or events that led to something malicious. It comes from bullying, murder, deceit, hatred, and unfair enforcement. This causes a person to do what they believe is right. When a cause is too great, that person would feel like they shouldn't be the ones to be victimized. It makes a person go insane until they are satisfied. When someone feels like there should be more involved, that is when everything changes. Anything goes and whatever happens next will be a serious crime. For instance, Anon-A-Miss was created by the influence of deceit. Then Anon-A-Miss went even further by breaking the laws of Identity Theft. Now I do understand that Chrysalis let everyone go with a warning but that creates something much worse. When the person feels that the punishment was unfair after everything that has happened then the mentality of that person changes. That person would do whatever it takes to seek justice on their own without any remorse. Now I would like each of these students here to say a few words about why they committed the act."

Diamond Tiara took the mic away from Shining Armor vigorously.

"I did what I've done because Scootaloo was part of Anon-A-Miss. She didn't have to be dealt with Chrysalis. She had an easy way out unlike the rest of us even though some of us didn't associate with Anon-A-Miss. I don't care that she never post something on the internet! She got away with it by having a light punishment. If you ask me, she should be suffering more than she already is." Diamond Tiara said with a stone-cold heart inside of her.

Gilda, Lightning Dust, Rover, Spot, and Fido remained quiet. They refused to speak.

"So we got a couple of wise guys and girls here not wanting to talk huh?" Shining stated clearly. "Another thing about Psychological Manipulation is that someone could organize a group to help out with the right cost of course. Judging by your reaction, Diamond Tiara must have bribed you to go forth with her plans."

Once again, they were silent.

"Well then, my job here is done. Soldiers, you may take these arsonists away! They are no longer needed her." Shining commanded his troops to come into the gym and apprehend the group. Diamond Tiara could only smile knowing that Daddy will come to bail her out. As for her associates though, she could care less about them. Her mission is completed now that she won.

A few moments later, the arsonists left the gym.

"Now going back to what I've said. Anon-A-Miss is a perfect example of a push towards Psychological Manipulation. Anon-A-Miss just caused a group of students to do the unthinkable. Anon-A-Miss is the source that leads to devastation. If you all don't believe in what I'm saying for a stupid reason then look at the faces of those who are affected by it. Also how about asking Scootaloo for how she's feeling about this?" Shining Armor stated pointing to Scootaloo as she made her way on stage with tears overwhelming her eyes as she continued to cry uncontrollably. "Take a good look at the pain she has to go through. Her father died a hero while her mother died as a victim. I urge all of you to never make this mistake. If you do, I'll be here to lock your asses up for good. Thank you and have a nice winter break. Merry Christmas." Shining said as he along with the Canterlot National Guards left the school's premises.

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle ran towards the stage. Their eyes were watering but instead of a hug and embrace, they were stopped by Scootaloo for what she had to say.

"Are you happy?" Tears streaming down her face more. "Are you happy that you created Anon-A-Miss?" More tears in her eyes came out. Scootaloo's eyes were red. "Are you happy that Anon-A-Miss not only drove Sunset Shimmer away but wind up killing my mom in the process!" Scootaloo yelled at the top of her lungs. "Are you happy for making them turn on me right after I lost my dad? I saw the looks on your faces when Diamond Tiara was called out...It made me sick knowing you were happy that she came up with the idea of getting justice by killing my mom! I can't believe you 2 were enjoying what does shitbags did to my life!" Scootaloo once again shouted. "I see that you made Anon-A-Miss out of jealousy. I understand that but none of you thought it'd be a bad idea to do such a thing. Have you ever wondered why I left you girls that day before getting called into the Principal's office?" Rage starting to boil up deep inside her. "It's because I can see the damage it can bring. I realize that then when I confessed my sin to Celestia. I was hoping you 2 can see that but clearly you 2 assholes were blind to see the damages. First Sunset Shimmer's life is ruined her and now mine! Is that what you want as a career?! To ruin everyone's life?! I don't want to see you 2 ever again. Our friendship is over. No more pain coming from the likes of you." Scootaloo said as calm as she is trying to be. She then walks away from them but was cut off by Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom.

"Scootaloo! We're sorry for what we have done to you! We didn't know it'll go this far! Honestly! You don't have to go! We can still be..." Apple Bloom was cut off by Scootaloo's punch in the stomach. Apple Bloom fell back and as soon as she fell back, Applejack rushed over to her sister's aid.

"Scootaloo! Why you did that for..." She too was cut off by Scootaloo. Scootaloo kicked Sweetie Belle in her stomach causing her to fall on her side holding herself. Rarity ran like there is no tomorrow and comforted her sister.

"You know why I did that?" Scootaloo said as Applejack and Rarity glared at her. "I did that to show you 2 how lucky you are to have someone in your life to be there by your side. You see anyone coming to me for comfort? You see anyone that I love coming to love me and support me?"

Silenced reigned as Rarity and Applejack felt their hearts sank. Scootaloo just lost her family. She has nothing but pain and there isn't anyone to help her through. They couldn't believe what just happened and understood the lesson Scootaloo was giving to Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. Rainbow Dash saw everything but she turned and walked away.

"I know what I've done to Rainbow Dash and that will always haunt me. I know I made a mistake and can't fix it. She is stubborn and knowing her, she doesn't want anything to do with me now that Sunset Shimmer is gone. As for the 2 of you with your sisters, you still have a family. I had mine and they're gone. Goodbye and good riddance." Scootaloo said as she walked out of the gymnasium. Both Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom cried that not only they screwed up their sister's lives with Sunset Shimmer but they destroyed Scootaloo's family. What monsters they become.

A few hours later, Chrysalis was in Celestia's office. She and the Rainbooms were present with Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom. There was nothing but silence until Chrysalis spoke.

"I know that all of you here are feeling guilty for what has happened during the week. All I can say is what a good job of making a mess as a group. You girls as a whole not only ruined friendships but the 2 of you destroyed many lives with Anon-A-Miss. You can basically have this school shut down for the mess you girls created but I won't let that happen. You girls need to fix each other as a family or else I won't be able to bail you out." Chrysalis said finishing breaking the ice.

"What's going to happen with Scootaloo?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Shining Armor told me that a new family just adopted Scootaloo. I will announce for her to come. This will be the last time any of you can see her though. Celestia stated.

"Is it because of what she told us?" Sweetie Belle questioned.

"No, she's being transferred out of this school," Celestia said.

"What?!" Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Rainbow Dash shouted.

"Yes, her new father wants her out of a place where she only feels pain and misery," Celestia said. "Scootaloo, can you please come into the office. Scootaloo please come to the office."

Chrysalis received a text message. "The father is here. That is what Shining Armor said."

A few seconds later, Scootaloo came into the office. She refuses to see her former friends.

"I'm here Celestia. Sorry for the troubles I caused you here. It is now better that you never see me again in this school" Scootaloo said with her head down.

"I'm sorry for the pain you must be going through. It must be hard being alone for weeks only to be alone without your family. If you ever need me to talk about things, please don't hesitate to call me." Celestia said as she finished stapling her paperwork.

"Alright, I will. Also, I'm sorry for making you turn on Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash. My depression was eating me alive and took me a while to think about my actions."

Rainbow Dash remained silent. Not wanting to talk to Scootaloo. This is what she was expecting at the least. To be ignored.

A few moments later, there was a knock on the door.

"It's open!" Celestia shouted a little.

As the door opened, Celestia dropped her paperwork making a huge mess. Chrysalis heart skipped a beat. Both women were amazed, jaws dropped and eyes widen as they see who just walked through the door.

"Hello, Celestia. Hello, Chrysalis." Sombra said.

"Com-Com-Commander Sombra..." Chrysalis said as she was shaking rapidly while saluting to Sombra. "Wha-what an honor to see you..." Chrysalis is lost for words.

"It's nice to see you too Chrysalis. I see you made an impact here taking care of business." Sombra said.

"No way! Commander Sombra of the Equestrian Armed Forces!" Rainbow Dash shouted excitedly. "Is there a way you can allow me to join the Equestria Air Force?"

"No," Sombra answered. "I'm here to pick up my daughter and take her home."

Another knock can be heard.

"Come in," Celestia said.

"As the door opened a second time, she was shocked to see who she is."

"Sombra, are we ready to go?" Radiant Hope asked.

"Hope, I'll be there in a moment with our daughter. Just need to tell her something in front of everyone here so they can know why I'm here taking her. Sombra explained.

"Alright then. I'll see you in the car then." Hope said as she left the room.

"Scootaloo, your dad lost his life because he saved mine. He took a bullet for me right in the heated moment while Discord's forces were moving in. If he hadn't taken that bullet, I may not be here right now and the tides of war would have been shifted in Discord's favor. Your dad made the ultimate sacrifice so we can have another chance of fighting the war." Sombra said showing sympathy for Scootaloo and hugging her. "Your dad asked me to look after you and I will fulfill that promise. I'm sorry for the loss of your mother but now look, you're surrounded by friends such as Chrysalis and her Cybernetic Task Force, Shining Armor and the Canterlot National Guard and now both principals of this school. I promise to be here for you as long as you live."

"Thank you...Dad." Scootaloo said now smiling as she cried.

"You're welcome, my dear. Now I'll take those papers, Celestia." Sombra said.

"Right of course," Celestia said handing Sombra the transfer papers.

"Thank you and have a nice holiday break," Sombra said as he and Scootaloo left the office.

"All of you are free to go home. I'm going to announce that school is ending early. I think everyone here had enough drama for one day." Celestia stated as she grabbed her mic.

The girls nodded and left the office. Celestia notifies the whole school that they can go home.

"See you around Celestia. It was nice working things out here. Tell Lulu that I said bye." Chrysalis said as she left the office, called her squad up to leave the premises and they did.

A few hours later, the time is now 7:15 at night. Diamond Tiara just made her phone call from jail to her daddy and he's on his way. Diamond Tiara along with the others that were involved in the murder case had to share the same cell together. 35 minutes later Filthy Rich came and asked the officer to let him see Diamond Tiara. The officer granted Filthy Rich's wish and he went to the cell and escorted Diamond Tiara to her father.

"Diamond Tiara," Rich said as he was not pleased by her daughter's actions.

"Hi, daddy, how much was the bail for me and my friends?" Diamond Tiara winked at her cellmates.

"I didn't pay a cent for their bail Diamond Tiara," Rich said crossing his arms.

"What?!" Rover, Spot, Fido, Gilda, and Lightning Dust shouted.

"Well ok daddy, how about me? How much was my bail?" Diamond Tiara asked.

"Zero cents Diamond Tiara. I didn't pay anything for your bail." Rich said with a stern look on his face.

"Alright, dad! I got a free pass!" Diamond Tiara shouted in joy.

"No Diamond Tiara. You didn't get a free pass. I am not bailing you out of jail for a crime you've committed." Rich said looking away from her daughter.

"What?!" Diamond Tiara shouted as the others in the cell were laughing at her. "Come on daddy you can't be serious about this?"

"Diamond Tiara, I didn't raise a daughter to become a murderer. I didn't raise a daughter to become an arsonist. I didn't raise a daughter who seeks revenge. I raised a daughter to take control for the right reasons. I raised you to become a leader and look where you've ended up. I can't help you here Diamond Tiara. Yesterday in the morning you were my little girl. Now you're a grown woman and as a grown woman, you need to take responsibility for your actions."

"Daddy?!" Diamond Tiara now complaining like a baby.

"No amount of money can save you from this dilemma. Even if I could, you won't learn anything. I'm sorry Diamond Tiara but this is goodbye. Whatever happens to you in court, that is how you are going to deal with the consequences. Goodbye Diamond Tiara. I love you." Rich started to walk away but was stopped by Diamond Tiara.

"I can't go back in there! I promised that you will bail them out! I promised them something and now they're going to kill me." Diamond Tiara said, pleading with her father to change his mind.

"So you think killing someone's mother should automatically excuse you from prison?" Rich said questioning her daughter.

"Well Duh! Scootaloo deserved it for receiving a lighter punishment than I." Diamond Tiara stated proudly.

"Then you just wasted my time as a father figure to you. Officers! take her back. I'm done with her." Rich shouted.

Instant fear came to Diamond Tiara, she was just betrayed by her father. The officers took Diamond Tiara back into the cell where the others were there. Waiting to give her a beating now that she just is not only disowned by her father but her comrades' lives are screwed.

"It may not be Scootaloo but I'm really going to enjoy beating up a rich brat like you," Lightning Dust said readying herself for a beating to serve. The others in the cell were waiting. The officers pushed her in and within moments, everyone ganged up and beat her down into a pulp.

It is now 10:30 at night. Sombra just gave a tour around his house to Scootaloo. She is quite happy with how things were going now she has a family to live with again. The tour came to an end in front of a door. Sombra opened the door to show Scootaloo her room.

"Scootaloo, your room will be here where you can see the bright stars at night," Sombra said. "There are Air Force posters of Spitfire, Thunderlane, and Fleetfoot. Otherwise, there are known as the Air Bolts. The best of the best pilots in all of the land."

"Thank you, dad. The room looks great." Scootaloo said as she walked towards her bed.

"I think you'll like the school I enrolled you in Scootaloo. It's the same one where I met your father Speedy Bullet. He was a top-notch sniper while his agility came super quick. I know you have those skills in you Scootaloo so that I why I'm putting you in the same program. You'll be able to make new friends and grow together. How does that sound?" Sombra asked.

"Sounds good. I can't wait." Scootaloo said excitedly.

"Good," Sombra said patting her head. "Get some shut-eye. Tomorrow going to be a fun day as a family and don't worry about burying your parents. I have more than enough to take care of it." Sombra said.

Scootaloo got sad and cried in his arms hugging her father.

"It's ok. I promise it'll be alright." He kissed her on the cheek and got up. "I'll see you tomorrow kid. Goodnight." Sombra said as he closed the door.

"Goodnight dad," Scootaloo said as she was getting ready to sleep.

Sombra went downstairs to where Hope was at. She was sad as she drank her cup of hot chocolate while sitting on the couch.

"Hope, I'm still sorry that your condition wouldn't allow you to bring a child of our own into this world but now we have one courtesy of my fallen friend. I know it's years past that but we gotta make the best of it. Tomorrow we're going to be celebrating the holidays as a family now that we have a child to raise."

"I know Sombra and I'm really happy about our current situation. Really I am. I just feel sorry that she had to lose both of her parents in one week. It's just heartbreaking you know?"

"Yes, Hope I do. I saw my best friend died before my very own eyes. I saw him taking a bullet in which should have killed me. I am lucky to be alive now but blessed to have Scootaloo in our family. Things are going to work out for the better. For us and her." Sombra said as he kissed his wife.

"Thank you, Sombra for your kind words." She got up from the couch. "I'm going to bed now. Wanna join?" She said as she offered her hand.

"You know I'm coming," Sombra said picking up his beloved wife. Making their way up the stairs and into their bedroom.

Today has been a long day for everyone. Students going to prison, friends splitting apart and friendships breaking down. Almost everyone is torn apart. Diamond Tiara being ripped to shreds, Scootaloo no longer friends with Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. Rainbow Dash is on her own. No friend or sister companion. Celestia having to say goodbye to a bunch of students because of Anon-A-Miss. It has been a tough week for everyone.

Christmas Day! Presents! Letters From Principal Celestia! New Day With Family!

It is now Christmas morning. Applejack and Apple Bloom didn't even sleep well last night. They were up all night struggling to have a good night sleep. Apple Bloom is the cause of everything bad that has happened to her, her friends and Applejack. Applejack felt that things were her fault for ignoring her sister. Putting Apple Bloom aside, not helping the family and spending too much time with her friends than family. It'd made both girls crazy until Granny Smith called them downstairs for presents. As the two went down, their heads were also down. Feeling sad and depressed that they couldn't even look at each other without feeling shame, disgust and embarrassed. When they were downstairs, Big Mac just finished opening his present. He got a new Xbox and game controllers. He looked at Apple Bloom and Applejack and felt sad for what they caused together. His excitement turned to serious mode as something else was going to happen.

"Applejack, Apple Bloom," Granny said while in her rocking chair.

"Yes?" Both girls said.

"Now before I can give your presents, there is a time for punishment."

"We understand Granny. Before something good comes out, we must suffer first." Applejack said sadly.

"Good now get yer butts over here to Granny's lap. Big Mac! Bring me my belt!"

Applejack and Apple Bloom feared Granny's belt. It leaves nothing but a huge bruise and pain on their asses. They don't know which belt she'll be using cause she had so many for discipline reasons. One time when Applejack screwed up so bad with a little white lie, she received the Apple Whip. Her ass was sore for 2 weeks as a reminder to never lie to her family ever again thus making Applejack a very honest person. Apple Bloom received Granny's Apple Leather Candlelit Belt. The hot wax was an added bonus for the time she gave Filthy Rich a bribe for her mistakes. The money cost the family to work double time to pay their taxes on time. She suffered a month of bruises on her ass. She couldn't sit down for a minute without ice on the chairs or on her bed. Each of the two sisters wondered which belt she'll use for Christmas. Big Mac came in with Granny's most feared belt in the family. The Apple Bamboo Belt. It's so strong that'll make anything bleed without blood being shattered. It's Granny's favorite belt to use for higher discipline. When she used it on Big Mac, he rarely speaks. He cursed out his teachers at school and Granny for a long time until the belt was introduced to him. His ass felt like it wasn't a part of his body anymore. He couldn't feel a thing and learned never to talk back aggressively.

"So who's first?" Granny said with the belt in her hand.

Applejack and Apple Bloom hugged each other in fear when Big Mac gave Granny the belt. They did not want to go through what Big Mac went.

"How long did it last Big...M-Mac?" Apple Bloom said shakingly.

"Six months to be precise. I hurt so much Apple Bloom that I dare not to sit down for the first few weeks. With all that pain on you, it felt like I was missing a body part because it went numb for a long time. All I have to say is thank you God that I don't have to go through what the two of you are going to get." Big Mac said.

"Applejack, get yer butt up here missy. It's time to sing the 12 days of Christmas." Granny said now that she has chosen Applejack to be the first victim.

Applejack could only stare until Big Mac picked her up and carried her to Granny. He made sure that the belt is in perfect contact to make the swing on Granny's lap. Applejack could only feel fear in her heart. She didn't want this at all. She wanted to be sent to detention for the rest of her school life than to take this kind of torture. When Big Mac sang the first day of Christmas, Granny made contact. Applejack screamed so loud that the birds were flying away from the barn. The Bamboo already left a mark as Apple Bloom saw and was shaking rapidly. Not wanting to go through the Bamboo belt. Big Mac continued to sing the 12 days of Christmas. For each day, Granny Smith made contact. Applejack went to a point of begging for Granny to stop when the 6th day arrived but she didn't listen. She continued to make contact. By the 8th day, Applejack was on the verge of tears wanting this new level of pain to stop. Never she felt so, bruised up in her life. When the 12th day of Christmas came, Big Mac stopped singing and Granny Smith made her final contact on Applejack. She quickly got out and ran outside to sit on the snow. When her ass sat on the snow, it didn't help her. She felt like being on fire as she screamed in pain.

"Alright, Apple Bloom. Your turn." Granny said. We will be singing the 12 days of Christmas once more! Granny said loudly.

Apple Bloom tried to run away but she was caught by Big Mac.

"Sorry Apple Bloom, you went too far with this Anon-A-Miss crap at school and to everyone. Granny told me to make sure you stay still so I have the privilege to wrap you in duct tape like that time you and your friends did to me and Ms.Cheerliee last year for Valentine's Day." Big Mac said.

Apple Bloom could only struggle. Hoping that Big Mac loses his grip but it was to no avail. Granny gave Big Mac the duct tape to wrap Apple Bloom's legs together and to make sure her hands were taped behind back so she won't get any bright ideas. Granny uses her belt to make sure she has the perfect aim of Apple Bloom's ass. Big Mac drank a cup of water and began to sing the 1st day of Christmas. Granny made contact on the first swing. Apple Bloom screamed louder than her sister did. The first swing was brutal to her that she wished she never made Anon-A-Miss. Big Mac continued to sing and Granny continued to make contact. By the 6th day of Christmas, Apple Bloom was already on the verge of tears and begging Granny to stop just like Applejack. Granny didn't listen. She continued to swing making contact on Apple Bloom. By the 10th day of Christmas, Apple Bloom was begging Applejack to come to help her but Applejack ran to the bathroom to take a cold shower. The bamboo belt already made several marks on her ass. Big Mac took his time slow so the punishment can last longer. By the 12th day when Big Mac finished singing and Granny making the final contact on Apple Bloom's ass, Apple Bloom hopped outside to sit on the snow as Applejack has done. All she can feel is the pain from the bamboo belt. When she sat down, she quickly hopped back up screaming in so much pain. Big Mac came outside with scissors and cut the tape off of Apple Bloom allowing her to walk and run again. Apple Bloom ran towards the kitchen and tried to fit her butt in the freezer but nothing she has done was working.

"Now this is what happens when the two of yer commit something far worse than idiotic," Granny said. Applejack and Apple Bloom heard all that Granny said. They did deserve this punishment. Hoping it can change them for the better but the pain is too much for them. 6 months they both have to endure the pain.

"Apple Bloom, we received a letter from Principal Celestia. You are now expelled from Canterlot High. However, with your Anon-A-Miss creation, no high school around the area will take you. Therefore, Celestia has issued several teachers from your school to come by. You are now being homeschooled until you graduate high school. From there you'll be eligible to go to college." Big Mac said.

"And for you Applejack, I disabled your smartphone. You'll be getting a flip phone until next winter comes. You are not allowed to hang out with yer friends until all of the housework and farmwork is done. There will be no more saying I'll do it another time. Thanks to you, Apple Bloom made the biggest mistake of her life. Not only getting everyone in trouble at school, having students commit a vicious crime but making Scootaloo and Sunset Shimmer the real victim. Not only did Sunset Shimmer left our world, so did Scootaloo's ma two nights ago. As for the internet goes, you are barred from it unless it's for school purposes. When it comes down to that, Big Mac will be standing by the entire time so you can concentrate. Do yer understand that?" Granny questioned.

Both sisters looked at each other and nodded. Feeling the shame, humiliation, and pain in themselves and each other.

An hour later, Sweetie Belle and Rarity got out of their beds and stretched. Sweetie Belle finally went to sleep late last night by taking her father's sleeping pills. Rarity did the same but return them so that way, no one could have seen them taking them. Anyways, Sweetie Belle and Rarity made their way downstairs to see there parents sitting on the couch. Waiting for them to give not only presents but punishment as well. Cookie gave Rarity and Sweetie their gifts first. As the opened it, they received flip phones and questioned it.

"The reason why the two of you are getting flip phones is due to this Anon-A-Miss fiasco. With that being said and done, I canceled services for your smartphone and transferred all of your contacts to your flip phone. No MyStable or internet access on those phones until next school year," Cookie said.

"What?!" Rarity shouted. "But I need that phone for my inspirations this coming spring and summer. How can I be inspired if I don't have my internet in the palm of my hands?! "

"Another thing about your inspirations Rarity," Hondo said. "It'll be on hold until the next school year starts."

Rarity wanted to faint but couldn't because her parents were on the couch for fainting.

"You'll be using that time to bond with your sister Sweetie Belle. Before you had no time for her because you brush her aside for friends and work. Now that work is out of the way, you and your sister can catch up together in life." Hondo stated while his arms are crossed.

"You can't do that! You're messing with my life's work! My career is on the line here!" Rarity shouted.

"Rarity, it was you that drove your sister away. It was you that allowed her to think differently. It was you that kicked her out of the slumber party. I thought that I didn't need to tell you that you should allow Sweetie Belle to join but now I have too. It was you that drove her to submit herself to create such a disaster at school. This would not be happening if you involved her more in your life." Cookie said.

"I already made contact with those you're working with. They know that your being punished for doing what you've done to Sweetie Belle but to your friend, Sunset Shimmer who is no longer with us as far as I know. I made sure to let them keep in contact with you until the next school year. That means you won't be able to design clothes or anything fashion to sell." Hondo said.

"Then where would I get my money from?!" Rarity said.

"Us. We do make enough to support our own kids you know." Cookie said displeasingly.

Rarity screamed in anger. Never in her life, she felt more angry at anything. She fell to her knees crying a lot.

"As for you Sweetie Belle, you are barred from using the internet for a whole year. You are barred from any school programs in school including your computer science clubs. You are to remain here until your sister comes back from school." Hondo said.

"Huh?" Sweetie Belle questioned.

"We received a letter today from Principal Celestia. Sweetie Belle, you are now expelled from Canterlot High School due to your antics and relation with Anon-A-Miss. You helped Anon-A-Miss create disorder in your school, drove your sister's best friend Sunset Shimmer away, drove students into psychological manipulation to kill Scootaloo's mother making her an orphan. Celestia felt that this was the best way of handling things when the new year arrives. You are to remain homeschooled until you can graduate from high school. Then you can go out and apply for college with a clean slate." Hondo said.

Sweetie Belle could not believe she got expelled on Christmas but then again, she deserved it after all she has done. She was shown mercy by the principals instead of by her fellow students who would have sought out for blood instead. Rarity cried that her schedule, her inspirations, and her work had to come to a halt because of Sweetie Belle. Rarity went ahead and slapped her sister in the face. The impact of the slap was so loud that it left a handprint bruise on Sweetie Belle. Both Hondo and Cookie were infuriated by the way Rarity was handling her punishment. Sweetie Belle took it, with tears in her eyes and went upstairs back to her room. Rarity turned to her parents only to see the disappointment in their eyes. Rarity realized that her anger got the best of her and she took it out on Sweetie Belle. She failed as a sister the first time when she told her that she would have been better off dead...now, that may be the case. Rarity rushed upstairs to Sweetie Belle's room but she locked the door. Sweetie Belle laid on her bed and did nothing. She didn't even bother. She grabbed her computer, went to ViewTube and listened to her music with her headphones on so she wouldn't have to hear anything coming from her door for the next few hours. Rarity tried her best to get the door open but soon gave up. She went to her room crying and jumped on to her bed so she can scream into her pillow.

Things at Rainbow's house was no fun either. Her parents barred her from the soccer team after what she has done to Sunset Shimmer. For ignoring Scootaloo's depression during the weeks when her father went to war. Rainbow Dash wasn't allowed to even join in for practices. He even took her soccer ball away and tickets to the Blue Pegasus parade that'll be coming into town next week. Pinkie Pie at her house was no longer the party planner. Her mom and dad forbade her from eating anything sugary for the next 6 months. She wasn't allowed to help the Cakes at Sugarcube Corner until the next school year. As for Fluttershy, she wasn't allowed to take care of the animals after she abandoned Sunset Shimmer. She wasn't allowed to keep her bunny, Angel. She had to take him to the zoo until the next school year came which broke her heart deep down inside. Things were rough for the girls on Christmas day.

Diamond Tiara was put into isolation after receiving an unforgettable beating from her former crewmates. She had two black eyes, broken ribs, a dislocated arm, broken legs, and her ankles were fractured. Diamond Tiara wanted to go home. She learned her lesson already but she could not. Rich didn't want anything to do with Diamond Tiara after what she committed. She killed a young girl's mother by burning down a house. Money was not going to set her straight. Diamond Tiara is now waiting for trial along with the other students.

Scootaloo has woken up late. It is now 12:30 in the afternoon. She hasn't slept well like that since her father was around. She felt a little teary thinking about it but wiped it clear. She has a new family to call her own now. Scootaloo left her room and made her way downstairs. She saw Sombra reading the newspaper while Radiant Hope was making lunch. Scootaloo felt happiness and it was all she can ever feel. Knowing that her new life was about, to begin with her new family. As she walked past Sombra, he grabbed Scootaloo and pulled her over.

"Where do you think you're going without saying hi to me," Sombra said hugging his now new daughter.

"Nowhere, I was..." Scootaloo was cut off by Somrba.

"Merry Christmas Scootaloo. Your mom and I both have presents for you." He said as he let Scootaloo go.

"Really?!" Scootaloo shouted excitedly.

"Well of course. You do deserve it after all." Sombra said. "Wait here and I'll bring your mother." Sombra got out of the couch and head towards the kitchen. Letting Hope know about Scootaloo and to bring her present.

Scootaloo couldn't believe that she'll be getting presents at all. She thought her present already came since yesterday when she was taken away from the hell whole at school and away from her so-called friends. Moments later, Sombra and Hope came into the living room with two presents for Scootaloo. She opened the first one from hope. She saw that Hope bought her a new smartphone. Scootaloo went up to Hope, hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. She then opened up Sombra's gift and began to cry a little. Scootaloo took her father's journal and a picture of him with his comrades and Sombra having fun. In the picture, Scootaloo saw her dad Speedy Bullet smiling. She also saw another picture in the box. She saw Speedy Bullet, Ember Light and her from last year's Christmas photo. Scootaloo turned to Sombra.

"Where did you got this picture from?" She said while tears coming out of her eyes.

"Your dad sent me that picture a while back. Every now and then before his passing, we'll send each other some of our favorite moments in life to let each other know that we're alright in life. That was the last one he sent me and I believe you should hold on to it." Sombra said.

Scootaloo went up to Sombra and hugged him. Hope came and joined in the hug. They were having a family moment. Scootaloo went upstairs to her room with her gifts. She set the smartphone aside and placed the two photos of her family beside her bed. She then opened Speedy Bullet's last journal entry to read. There was a message for Scootaloo.

"Hey Scootaloo, I know that time is running short but I want to say is I'm proud of you for who you are going to be. Know that I will never leave you. If my body falls, my spirit is always with you. Watching over you day and night. For 13 years, you have been my pride and joy. For 13 years, I got to see my young girl growing into the young woman she wants to be. Know that whatever path you decide to walk into, I'm already there cheering you on. I'm truly blessed to have a wonderful daughter in my life. I know you'll find something great in life. I know that you will have the right guidance as well. Before I bring the pain to my next battle, I want you to know that you have the warrior's spirit in you to keep fighting. Never forget and never give up. I never gave up on you so don't you dare give up on yourself when times are hard. Just know that I love you and if I do fall, just know that you will never be alone as long as you live. Take care Scootaloo and look out for those you love in life. Your father Speedy Bullet"

After reading her father's final message to her, she cried. Scootaloo misses her father and mother so much. Sombra and Hope came upstairs to check on Scootaloo and rushed into her room to comfort her. They both hugged Scootaloo as she cried her eyes out. Her father's last message was for her to never give up on herself and to look out for those she loves. After a while of hugging Sombra and Hope remained in Scootaloo's room and talked about stories about Speedy Bullet. They were telling stories of the good times they had to help Scootaloo feel better. After a while, she felt better. Sombra and Hope had something in mind for Scootaloo. They told her that when the new year arrives, they'll go ice skating. Scootaloo got a little pumped up for that. Hope left the room while Sombra remained. He let Scootaloo know that everything will work out in the end. It'll take time but the wait will be worth it. Scootaloo and Sombra hugged once more before he left the room. Scootaloo took her phone and saw the contacts she had on her old phone. She erased everyone's contact except for Principal Celestia, Luna, and Chrysalis. She no longer needs Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack anymore. They were part of her dark depressing past and the best way to move forward is to let them go so she did. Scootaloo decided to take a nap.

Christmas came and was horrible for most but Hearts Warming day was something very special espeically for Sunset Shimmer. Discord had something else in mind and he refuses to tell everypony about it.

Hearts Warming Day! Discord's Secret!

Author's Note

Now it's Hearts Warming Day. Everypony is having a good time. All except for Discord. He's struggling to have a fun day since meeting his tormentor in the portal however everything turned out fine in the end.

Comment if you please.

Have a nice day/night reading.

Hearts Warming Day! Discord's Secret!

It's now Hearts Warming Day in Equestria. Everypony waking up to celebrate. Ponies were already inside the Castle of Friendship setting up the tree to celebrate. Sunset Shimmer woke up bright and early. She stretched and left her room. She wanted to check on Discord. Yesterday, he had a small injury but it should be nothing for the Draqonacuus she thought to herself. Just a little magical mishap between the two dimensions. Sunset saw the other ponies setting up the tree. She smiled knowing that today marks a celebration with her friends. She couldn't wait for that. Sunset is now in front of the infirmary room. She knocked on the door twice to see if Discord is awake. No answer. She stepped in anyways to check on Discord. He was having a hard time sleeping. Shifting and turning like he's having a nightmare.

Discord in his sleep is having a horrible nightmare where he couldn't wake up from. Discord is flying through an endless stream of pain and suffering. Discord's memory is replaying itself like a movie with only the traumatic scenes happening over and over. His species being devoured. One by one the necromancer army gain power and strength enhancing their magic. Discord could only watch the tragedy unfold with tears in his eyes.

"Do you really think that they would help you?" The Necromancer said while laughing at Discord's pain and suffering throughout his dream realm. "You are going to lose more than your own life. You'll be the reason that your world will come to an end. There is no one that can help you now!". The Necromancer screamed.

Discord is shaking a lot and he screamed loud enough to wake himself up. Sunset saw and went up to him. Discord saw his friend Sunset Shimmer and calmed down.

"Just need to play it cool. Can't allow my friend to be worry because of what I saw." He said to himself.

"Discord, are you alright?"

"Yea Sunset, I'm fine. Just nothing to worry about."

"There is something going on isn't there?"

"No."

"You're lying Discord. I'm your friend. A Reformer and us Reformers shouldn't hide anything from each other." Sunset said.

"Look, I had a horrible past that I would like to leave behind...Please. It is best for me not to talk about it. Especially a day like today?"

"What do you mean Discord?"

"I really don't have a family like the rest of you ponies. I have no one to relate to. I am all that is left of my species before they moved on...without me..." A tear came out of Discord. "You ponies are lucky to have someone to relate too. I, on the other hand, don't have that luxury. It's just a difficult time of year for me which is why I don't really celebrate this holiday as a family. Even if I wanted to accept this holiday as my own..."

Sunset could feel the heavy burden on Discord. He is right. She hasn't seen or heard any other Draqonacuus' in all of Equestria. She needed to come up with an idea to cheer up Discord for the day. Then an idea popped into her head.

"Discord, how about for one day, you turn yourself into a pony of your choosing and try to relate to somepony. You can feel like your part of something again in your life. Now, what do you say?" Sunset asked while smiling. Showing Discord that she cared about him and his time of need.

"You know Sunset, I would have never thought of it. Screw it! I'll turn into one right now!" The idea excited him a lot. Getting rid of the thought about the necromancer haunting him in his dreams and avoiding the explanation of what he saw in the portal. Discord transformed himself into a unicorn. He has the chaos symbol as a cutie mark so he can really fit in. To have something worth meaning in his life either than friendship. Discord can feel a surge of happiness flow through his body. His spirit reawakening deep down inside. "Thanks for the idea Sunset Shimmer. Now I feel like celebrating." Discord used his magic and disappeared leaving Sunset behind.

"Well, I'm glad he's alright." Sunset trotted out of the room and headed towards the balcony. She wanted to see the great view of Ponyville. To breathe everything in as the Sun reflect on her body. It's one of her favorite morning traditions. When Sunset got to see the view, there was no sun in the sky, just clouds filling up as the snow came down. She should have known something like this was going to happen but can't help the feeling of seeing the Sun. "Well so much for that."

"So much for what?" Twilight asked.

"Morning Twilight. How are you this morning?" Sunset asked.

"I'm alright thank you. Have you seen Discord?"

"Yea I have. He wasn't feeling right about himself for today. Hearts Warming is not a holiday he celebrates because he is the only one of his kind so I gave him an idea to become one of us for the day so he can feel like he's part of something. "

"That's very thoughtful of you Sunset. If you excuse me, I have to make sure the ponies who are working in my castle is doing things exactly as I planned." Twilight said as she trotted the other way and away from Sunset.

"Have fun Twilight!" Sunset shouted. Then she turned to look at the view and wonder how things would have been if it weren't for Anon-A-Miss. She could have been spending another day with a slumber party with her friends. Thinking about the possibilities that would have happened at the Applejack's house but she then remembered what they have done to her which caused Sunset to cry a little. She could have been with them but fate had other plans. Spike saw and went up to Sunset Shimmer. She is still crying and still felt hurt despite the portal being closed down for good.

"Sunset, are you alright?" Spike asked.

"Yea, I'm fine. Just thinking about my past a little." Sunset said.

"I know how troubling the past can be but that should not be the reason to hold you down."

Sunset snapped back into reality just hearing that. She wiped her tears off of her face and looked down at the baby dragon.

"Sunset, there are things in the past that cannot be changed and should not be tampered with. It is best to let go of those worries and troubles and look forward. You have amazing friends who care about you and you Sunset Shimmer have an impact on each and every one of us. I love having a friend like you in my life. Your compassionate, strong, determined and courageous. You have all the qualities that make you such a great friend. Don't let your sins come back haunt you. To bring you back down to where you'll be suffering from. Endure and survive Sunset. It'll help you become stronger." Spike said as he munched on a gem.

Sunset felt a tear of happiness come out of her eye. Spike's words have a powerful meaning. She couldn't help but hugged the baby dragon tightly.

"Thank you, Spike!"

"N-No problem!" Spike said as he was being choked a little from the hug which Sunset let go of.

Sunset and Spike left the castle to gather some supplies for the bigger party later today. Pinkie Pie saw the two of them coming by and she wanted to tag along. The three of them went into different shops to gather what they need. Discord is having a blast socializing with other pony folks around the area. Pulling a couple of pranks here and there. Having a good time laughing along with the other colts. Sunset Shimmer does have Discord on her mind while doing some errands. She wanted to know why Discord wasn't like himself earlier.

As the morning went on, Sunset, Spike, and Pinkie came to the Castle and saw the huge tree all decorated nicely. She was amazed by the beauty of it. Hearts Warming Day, to celebrate the foundation of their nation and to be close together as brothers and sisters of the tribes. Pinkie Pie and Spike took Sunset Shimmer into a different room where Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Discord were at. Pinkie saw Discord as a unicorn which blew her mind away. They each have something for Sunset Shimmer.

"Sunset, since you had a difficult time with our counterparts from that dreaded world, we decided to make you feel better about us so here," Rarity is the first to give Sunset her gift.

Sunset opened her gift to find a well-designed Sunlight dress made for her.

"Wow Rarity," she smiled. "Thank you."

"You're welcome, darling." Rarity gave Sunset a hug.

"My turn!" Rainbow shouted as she gave Sunset her next gift.

Sunset opened up her second gift to find a new issue of Daring-Do Ring of Destiny.

"Wow Rainbow, how did you became a character of the Daring Do series?"

"Easy, I helped her and she allowed me in as a character for finishing her book," Rainbow stated.

"Hmm, lucky you." They hugged as well.

"Here ya go Sunset!" Applejack said.

Sunset opened her gift and saw a basket full of apples.

"It's in case you get hungry at night. Those are fresh apples picked by my barn."

"Thanks, Applejack." They hugged.

"Fluttershy and I pulled some strings to get you this." Pinkie said.

Sunset opened her next gift and saw what she couldn't believe. Right before her very own eyes was a Phoenix egg hatched already. The little baby phoenix saw Sunset and flew towards her head to rest on her. Sunset felt tears streaming out of her eyes. She now has a new friend in her life to take care of. Tears of happiness overflowed her eyes.

"Thank you, girls, for giving me a baby phoenix," Sunset said giving both Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy a big hug.

"Now you take care of him alright," Fluttershy said.

"I will. Thank you."

"Now, it's my turn." Twilight gave Sunset a journal for her to write everything that has to happen to her and to include some meaningful messages like she and her friends have. Friendship stories and everything that can come to mind. Sunset took it and gave Twilight a hug.

"Here, Sunset. I've been aging this one for a while now." Spike said, handing a fire ruby to Sunset. "I want you to have it as a token of our friendship for many years to come."

"Thank you, Spike." They hugged each other.

"Last but not least, there is me. The Defender of Equestria." Discord said.

"Well, what do you have for me?" Sunset asked.

"Since you came up with an idea for me to be a pony for the day, to help me overcome a stressful problem about the holiday, it seems only fair that I should give you something in return so..." he uses her horn to poof a present for Sunset, "here you go."

Sunset opened her gift to find a uniform. She questioned it until it had her cutie mark symbol on the back of it.

"Thanks, Discord but what's with the uniform?"

"The uniform will be something for us Reformers to wear. As we spread Friendship all around Equestria, there may be those who want to do evil because they don't have Friendship in their lives. We didn't have any until Twilight came into our lives and changed all of that. Even though it was Fluttershy who became my first friend but it was Twilight who showed what real Friendship supposed to be. I figure we can do what she did for us and spread that joy throughout Equestria. Maybe have others to join our team." Discord said happily.

"You know, that doesn't sound bad at all. Reformers, I do like the sound of that. Us being in a team working together for the better of Equestria."

"Good now let's hug." Discord said opening his arms open.

"Not yet, I want the real you and not the pony you."

"Alright then!" Discord changed back to his normal self and hugged Sunset Shimmer.

After Sunset had taken her things and pet to her room, she carved the box for her baby to sleep in. She thought of a name for her Phoenix. "I think I'll name you Fiery Flames." The baby Phoenix smiled at his new mother and flew back onto to Sunset Shimmer. "I guess you want to come with me than to be alone?" Fiery nodded his head. Not wanting to leave Sunset. "Hmm, then I found a third member of our team."

Sunset Shimmer went back to her friends and they headed towards the tree. Discord turned back into a unicorn to celebrate Hearts Warming. They sang, they partied and had a great time with everypony else.

As the day went on, Discord felt out of place. Not due to him being a unicorn celebrating but his memory about the necromancer came back. He ran out of the celebration and into another room away from everypony. He turned back to normal and cried his eyes out. The memory of his mother Eris came back. He missed her so much. All he can hear is the necromancer's laughter. Discord could hear the screams his species cried when they were being devoured. It was too much to bear. Discord heard a knock on the door as it opened. He saw Sunset Shimmer with Fiery Flames resting on her head.

"Discord, why are you crying?"

"I want to be alone if you don't mind."

"I do mind. There is something wrong with you Discord. I can tell. Seeing you cry is not something out of the ordinary for you. Is there something that you want to tell me about...Reformer?"

Discord paused for a second. After hearing Sunset calling him a Reformer, he knew that she was going to take the team very seriously. Sure she called him one earlier but he wasn't really paying much attention to her. This time he is. This could be the defining moment to set things straight. Not only as friends but as a team. He didn't really want to tell her about the necromancer heading over to the world she left behind but he's willing to tell her about his dark secret.

"Alright Sunset, I'll tell you what's going on with me. My species were attacked by an army of necromancers few thousand years ago. When I was younger, all I had either than my species was my mom. Her name was Eris. She cared about me. Calling me her baby. She loved to spread chaos wherever she goes. I would be right beside her. Not wanting to be alone. Not wanting to see my mother go on without me. She was everything to me. Then one day, I created my very own cotton candy cloud that rained chocolate milk. She loved that I made my own cloud just like hers. I was hoping one day, we can create a cotton candy creature to fight to the death in front of everyone. Just for fun and smiles. Unfortunately, the necromancers came into our realm. They came hungry. Searching for food. My species tried to help them by giving them something to eat. Unknown to us Draqonacuus' they came to eat us. They devoured one and gained chaotic magic. Enabling themselves with their cryptic powers. They became too powerful that their hunger became wider. After devouring one of my species, they started to devour more. Soon war broke out between the two but unfortunately, my species were outmatched by the necromancers. My mom Eris and a few of us were the remaining Draqonacuus' left. She hugged me and told me to run as she launched their final attack hoping to find some weakness to exploit. I ran even though I didn't want to. I ran as fast as I could during that time. When I turned around, my realm...my home was torn apart. Everything that was peaceful, filled with bright colors...washed away just like that. Then a necromancer came and told me that I was the last of my kind. He told me that my life would not be taken away. To live a life as the last of my kind. It broke me down in so many ways. I tried killing myself but I could never do it. Knowing my mom wanted me to live my life and not waste it. I thought I'd be alone for the rest of my life. Everything changed when I started to have friends but the pain I held on to for all my life can never go away. That is why I have a hard time celebrating this Hearts Warming Day. My family is no longer with me. My mom...gone forever...Now you know why I feel like this today..."

Sunset took it all in. She now knows why Discord wasn't feeling like himself. The pain he suffered is still too much for one to handle. Sunset trotted over to Discord and hugged him. Fiery flew around Discord before hugging him with his little wings. Discord returned the hug but did not want to let go. Not just yet. As moments turn into an hour, Twilight came searching for them and saw Discord hugging Sunset Shimmer and Fiery Flames. Not wanting to intrude, she left them be. She went back towards her friends and continued to celebrate.

The day went by pretty quick. Everypony is happy. Discord and Sunset spend most of their time hugging as Discord didn't want to let them go. He now has a new family. A family with friends he cherishes so much. He hopes that one day, he can seek revenge against the necromancer who took his family away. RIght now, he wants to stay still with his friends. Discord then relinquish his hug. Allowing Sunset Shimmer to return to her friends. Instead Sunset Shimmer and Fiery stayed with Discord. They wanted to cheer him up and so they did.

New Years is coming up and soon a new chapter in life will begin.

New Years Resolution Part 1!

For the past few days, the students of Canterlot high received numerous punishments by their parents. A new school policy has revealed itself to the students. No cell phones allowed during school. Thanks to Chrysalis and Changelings unit, they created a network that'll slow the internet down from all phones and computers they bring in. There are now new passwords for the school to give to the teachers so they can control the pace of their classes with the internet for research purposes or class presentations. Most websites on the internet that the students go to are now blocked. Anon-A-Miss made sure that the internet is a place to cause chaos so by limiting the control of it would prevent cyberbullying.

The Rainbooms received their punishments by their parents. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle are now going to be homeschooled for the rest of their school life. Rarity's career will be put on hold for a while. Applejack will be helping her family a lot more often. Rainbow Dash will be bored as hell with no soccer practice or anything related to her sport. Even going to see the Blue Pegasus parade. Fluttershy had to give up Angel for a while and Pinkie would have no choice but to adapt to her new diet. All is not well for everyone at Canterlot High.

Diamond Tiara and some of her crew are now awaiting trial. They burned and killed Scootaloo's mom out of vengeance. Diamond Tiara is in an isolation cell after getting brutalized by Gilda, Lightning Dust, Rover, Spot, and Fido. 2 days after Christmas, Silver Spoon came to visit Diamond Tiara only to let her know that their friendship is gone for good. She didn't want to be friends with a murderer. That broke Diamond Tiara's heart as she had to see her only friend walk away from her.

Scootaloo is enjoying her new life with her family. Sombra and Hope have been very kind to her. Helping her grow into a young woman ready to take action. Sombra has been good to Scootaloo. He took her out to the arcade, indoor amusement park. Hope even tagged along with the laser tag. Scootaloo has truly found her happiness once more. In a weird way, she thanked Anon-A-Miss for putting her on the right path but she still hated Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle for how their bright idea made her an orphan and how happy they were when seeing Diamond Tiara being the one who killed her mother. Scootaloo still thinks about Speedy Bullet and Ember Light. She missed them. She missed all the good times they had together but due to Sombra and Hope, they filled that void with open arms and smiles to go around.

Tonight marks the last day of the year. Tomorrow is the beginning of a new chapter in life for everyone. Everyone who has been punished enough was able to at least celebrate the new coming of the new year. With 2 hours left, everyone in their household was trying to spice things up despite all the trouble that has happened for the past 2 weeks.

Hondo, Cookie, and Rarity were worried about Sweetie Belle's condition as of late. Every day she'll come out for a few moments. To grab her food or use the bathroom. Its been hard for Sweetie Belle in the household ever since Christmas morning when Rarity slapped her beloved sister in the face out of anger. Rarity is more worried about her sister than ever. She made attempts to speak or try to get Sweetie Belle to talk but to no avail. Sweetie Belle couldn't even look at Rarity. She walked past her and back into her room. Hondo and Cookie tried talking to Sweetie Belle but they got no word from her either. With one last attempt before the new year comes, Rarity grabbed a ladder and headed outside. She then climbed the ladder and opened the window in Sweetie Belle's room. Sweetie Belle just stood in her bed. Unfazed by what was going on behind her.

"Sweetie Belle. I know what I've done to you is no excuse for how I was reacting. I'm sorry for slapping you in the face right after you told me the other day about how you were truly feeling. " Rarity said as she closed the window.

"Go away." Sweetie Belle said.

"Sweetie Belle, I already abandoned you once without knowing. I will not abandon you now!"

Rarity takes a step forward only to trip on something on the floor.

"Don't even bother. I'll be gone soon enough."

Rarity did not like the sound of that. Then she went to Sweetie Belle. Looked her in the eyes and hugged her sister. Sweetie Belle didn't hug back. She now wanted to be left alone. For once after fighting so hard to be together, she now wants to be isolated from her sister. So she doesn't become a disappointment to her now than what she already is. Rarity refused to leave but Sweetie Belle didn't care enough. Her time will come soon she hoped. Rarity unlocked Sweetie Belle's door to allow her parents to come in but Sweetie Belle wants nothing to do with them. She doesn't deserve anything, after all, she's done.

"Go away!" Sweetie Belle shouted.

"We're not leaving you like this Sweetie Belle. Also, you have an appointment tomorrow with our new family psychologist."

"Who would that be?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Her name is Zecora," Hondo said.

"Great...what a great way to kick off the new year."

Around this time, Applejack just finished repainting the new shed with Big Mac. It took them 3 hours to complete. Apple Bloom remained inside laying down on the couch since her ass still hurting from Granny's bamboo belt. It's been torture for her since Christmas. Apple Bloom now having all sorts of regrets rushed in her head. She can't sleep due to the fact that her idea not only ruined a lot of friendships in her school, she ruined Sunset Shimmer's life and taken the life of Scootaloo's mom away. Apple Bloom couldn't weigh down her emotions either. Every night since her beating, she has been having terrible nightmares. She kept on waking everyone at night with her horrible nightmares. Apple Bloom has bags on her eyes from the sleepless nights. She kept on saying that it's her fault over and over. Apple Bloom is now completely broken. Applejack has taken the majority of the blame cause she is the one who put Apple Bloom on this dark path by ignoring her completely. She's been nothing but a bad sister towards Apple Bloom. In result, hell came to everyone at Canterlot High. Hell came to everyone. She is hoping that the New Year will become better for everyone.

Rainbow Dash invited Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie to come over to her house for the night. They were going to celebrate the new year together and hoping that they can leave everything about last year to rest and look forward to the new year arriving.

"So, what were your punishment girls?" Rainbow asked out of curiosity.

"I had to let Angel go for a year. My parents told me if I wasn't trustworthy with someone I know who is dealing with great pain, then how can I be the same for someone else who I don't even know. If I can have the level of trust with a stranger better than the ones I hold dear then why bother taking care of someone I love when I can trust someone who can do more harm than good. I wasn't kind to Sunset like I was kind to other people and hear them out. I deserved it after telling Sunset she wasn't our friend anymore..."

"You got lucky. My parents came back home drunk and depressed after their little gambling night. They lost $5,000 and took their anger out on me. They are very strict with their punishments especially when they are drunk. I was told that I can't have anything sugary for the next 6 months. 6 freaking months! I can't even help the Cakes bake anything good! You know what life is like without sugar!" Pinkie shouted out of frustration.

"Think that's bad. Try finding something to do when you're no longer on a soccer team and can't do anything related to soccer especially going to your favorite team's celebration parade!" Rainbow shouted.

All three girls were sad by their punishments. They were sad because Sunset Shimmer is no longer with them. They deserved it after treating her wrong. Hurting her physically and mentally. Also, they were saddened by Scootaloo's situation. Rainbow Dash couldn't stop thinking about Scootaloo but at the same time, didn't want her around. Not after what she has done which made Rainbow go after Sunset even more.

Scootaloo, Sombra, and Hope were on their way towards the ice skating rink. For their new years together, they would ice skate as a new fond family. Sombra and Hope skated together as they saw Scootaloo having a time of her life skating around the rink. She loved going fast so Sombra and Hope let her be for the time being. They looked at each other, smiling and kissing each other as they began to welcome the new year as it approaches. Sombra then started to skate a bit faster to keep up with Scootaloo.

"Wanna race?" Sombra asked.

"Sure dad! I'll take you on!" Scootaloo said proudly.

"Oh please, the two of you are no match for me. " Hope said as determined as she can be.

"Then it's settled. We'll start the race right...NOW!" Sombra said already skating faster than before.

"Oh no, you don't!" Scootaloo and Hope said catching up to Sombra.

For 15 minutes, they skated around the rink. There are only a few minutes left before the new year comes. Hope was the first to finish the race. Scootaloo came in second and Sombra in the last. He left the rink to buy 3 snow cones. When he made it back, he sat down on the table where Scootaloo and Hope were sitting. He gave them their snow cones and looked at the bright night sky.

"Scootaloo, when the new year comes, what do you want?" Sombra asked

"I want my life to continue to go forward in the right direction. I already have a nice new loving family. To fill the other voids in my life, I need to make new friends. Also to follow in my father's footsteps in the military school you enrolled me in dad. Also, to spend more time with your mom, dad. I didn't have that luxury for months so I want to have as many memories as I can." Scootaloo said.

Sombra and Hope hugged their daughter. As the looked at the sky, they saw the fireworks lighting it up in the sky. Letting them know that the new year has arrived.

Before the fireworks and the new year, the Apple Family new year resolution to become stronger as a family. To never put each other aside. Also to never allow each other to take a turn heading in the wrong direction. As for Apple Bloom and Applejack, to heal faster so they can sit down properly. Rarity and Sweetie Belle new year's resolution is to find happiness within each other and themselves. To be more mindful than selfish. To be better than becoming worse. Sweetie Belle only wants her sister to truly love her and not show her any pain. All she wanted was to start things new. Rarity wanted to make things right with Sweetie Belle. Not only brushing her aside from work or hanging out with friends but to apologize for all the wrong she put Sweetie Belle through for the past few months. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie new year's resolution are to become better friends and pay more attention to their surroundings rather than jumping into conclusions. To help one another before it becomes far more difficult to handle.

The Principals new year's resolution is to help the school return back to its normal state before Anon-A-Miss came and help the school builds it's reputation right back up.

As the new year came, everything started to take a toll on everyone. The new year will not be pretty for everyone except for Scootaloo and her new family in this realm. As for Sunset Shimmer and the others in Equestria, things are a bit different over there...

New Years Resolution Part 2! Strange Encounter! Explanation!

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Slumber Party at Pinkie's House! Birth of Anon-A-Miss (Apple Bloom's creation)

Apple Bloom is at home with Granny Smith watching tv and Big Mac sleeping. Big Mac had a long hard day working on the farm and is too tired to hang with Apple Bloom for the night. It's 7:30 at night and she is alone bored. Her sister Applejack went off with her friends to Pinkie Pie's house for a slumber party. She asked her older sister Aj to come along but she told her no. As of late with Apple Bloom, her sister Applejack has been spending much of her time with Sunset Shimmer ever since the Battle of the Bands. Apple Bloom remembers Sunset Shimmer is the one who saved everyone by defeating the Sirens. Apple Bloom feels that Sunset Shimmer is taking precious time away from her sister. Apple Bloom feels lonely and for the past few weeks ever since the Battle of the Bands, she feels separated from her own sister. By now the slumber party is now beginning and she's missing out on all the fun.

It is now 7:35 at night, Pinkie just ordered 20 pizza pies and the party is getting started.

"Pinkie!" Rainbow shouted, "Why did you order 20 pies when there are only 6 of us." she exclaimed.

"You mean 7!", Pinkie cheered, "My sister Maud is here too you know and I can't juuuust leave her out of the picture too! She has to be hungry around this time as we all have fun."

"Well I still can't believe that Maud is related to you," Rarity said. "I mean she is just well....not enthusiastic as you are."

"Well, when you put it that way. Maud has her own unique style of expressing herself and she is super cool. Just because she is different that doesn't mean she's fun. You should see her with Boulder playing hide and seek or when she makes these awesome rock candy. Also, she is good at sports such as rock climbing, boxing and..." Pinkie was cut off by Applejack.

"Okay okay Pinkie, we got the message loud and clear. Just explain to us how you gonna pay for the pies." Applejack said.

"Oh don't worry about that. You see after throwing this really awesome birthday party for the pizza boss daughter free of charge of course. He allowed my family to get a free supply of pizza for a whole year. For the pizza boss, he has a kind heart when his only child is happy." Pinkie explained.

"Well that answered Applejack's question," Sunset said.

"So how long till pizza arrives Pinkie?", Fluttershy asked.

"1 hour at the least." Pinkie said. "Now let's get this party started by...oof!" she was hit by a pillow.

"PILLOW FIGHT!!!" Rainbow yelled.

All but Fluttershy who hid under the bed were having a fun time hitting each other with pillows. Rainbow and Applejack were rough on each other but not on the others. Sunset hits Pinkie in the back with her sun shaped pillow. Pinkie hits back at Sunset with her marshmallow shaped pillow on her head. Rarity got into the mix with Pinkie and Sunset with her crystal shaped pillow. Hitting both of them on the sides for good measure. All the girls were laughing along in their fight except Fluttershy who didn't like fighting in any sort of way even if it meant with pillows. She will only fight when their world is in danger from a magical demon or creature of any sort. After an hour of nonstop fun with the pillow fight, the girls were getting hungry as they were getting tired. Fluttershy crawled out after being under for so long and checked to see why the girls stopped fighting. 2 knocks can be heard at the door. Pinkie opened her door to see Maud holding 20 stacks of pizza. Pinkie took 19 of the pies leaving 1 for Maud to share with Boulder. After closing the door Pinkie gave her friends pizza to eat.

10 minutes later Apple Bloom went downstairs for a glass of apple juice. After drinking her glass Granny Smith went up to Applebloom.

"Apple Bloom please call your sister tonight to check on her. Also, have a good night sleep cause tomorrow gonna be a long day at school so get a good night rest young lady." Granny Smith said before heading up to her room to sleep.

"Alright Granny I will," she sighed. Apple Bloom drank her apple juice, cleaned the cup and went upstairs to her room to make a phone call to Applejack.

After 20 minutes of eating pizza and surprisingly Pinkie eating 4 pies without getting sick, the girls were stuffed and now starting to chat about their previous band practices.

"Thank you, girls. I haven't done anything like this in a long time. It's great to have friends.", Sunset sighed happily.

"I feel the same way. I don't know what life would be like without you gals." Rainbow said.

"Same here." Applejack included. Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Rarity nodded in agreement. They are overjoyed with having friends and spending so much time together.

Apple Bloom got into her pajamas and reached for her phone to call Applejack. As she is dialing her sister's number, Applejack's phone went off. She then asked Sunset to get her phone from her bag and put it on speaker. Sunset got Applejack's phone, answered it and put it on speaker.

"Whoever this is, you just ruined a real heartwarmin moment." Applejack answered.

"Hey, big sis" Apple Bloom responded. "Granny wanted me to call and make sure you're doin alright," Apple Bloom said.

"Course I'm all right. I'm with all my friends! Tell Granny Smith to quit her worrying." Applejack responded.

"Yeah" Sunset shouted, "Aj is fine and wearing nail polish" Sunset laughed.

"Alright alright, I'm just a messenger. Have a good night Piggly Wiggly. " Apple Bloom mocked as she hung up the phone.

Everyone gasped and laughed a little at the term Piggly Wiggly.

"Did your sister just called you Piggly wiggly?" Sunset questioned.

"Yea." Applejack admitted with a little sigh of defeat.

She explained to her friends the origin of her nickname and how Apple Bloom would use it from time to time. After Applejack's story came to an end, all but Sunset Shimmer and Applejack had fallen asleep. Sunset laughed a little as Applejack sighed but smiled.

"You know, for a kickoff to a slumber party, I'm glad that everyone here had a fun night. Some laughs, talks, playful fights. It is great to be with friends that truly cared about you." Applejack said.

"Yea. It's amazing for all we have gone through in a matter of months since the whole turnaround. I'm truly happy to have you and the rest of my friends." Sunset sighed in happiness.

Applejack looked at the time. It is 9:38 and she yawned. "Well Sunset, have a nice sleep cause the fun is only getting started with the slumber party stretch."

Sunset yawns as well. "Yea. Night Applejack." "Night Sunset". Both girls went to sleep.

It is now 9:45 at night in the Apple home. Granny Smith is now asleep. Big Mac is still knocked out from the day's work. As for Apple Bloom, she couldn't get any sleep. She felt missed out on all the fun her sister gets to have while she doesn't have any. Sunset for not having anyone for the holidays gets to take her sister away was too much for the younger sister. Sunset who all of a sudden has been Applejacks main priority since the Battle of the Bands was starting to make her feel like she isn't worth having around as of late. A dark cloud formed in her mind. She just wanted to get her sister back. She needs her to smile and have fun again. She wants things to go back to the way they were before the Battle of the Bands. An idea came to her mind. A plan so ingenious it could not go wrong. Apple Bloom grabbed her laptop and started to go to the MyStable website and create a new account called Anon-A-Miss. Knowing the possibility and reading many stories about someone who pretends to be good but in actuality, a monster would be the perfect scapegoat. Knowing that she just told everyone at the slumber party one of Applejack's secret would be perfect. To make Sunset Shimmer go back into her ruthless heartless she-demon ways. To get everyone into thinking that Sunset is nothing more than a backstabber. What an idea she thought to herself and making Applejack believe that she, her own sister would never do such a thing. What an opportunity to take advantage of her sister's love over Applejack's love for a friend with Sunset Shimmer. After making the account, Anon-A-Miss first post would be about "Piggly Wiggly". After 10 minutes of posting her own sister's secret on MyStable, there were an increasing amount of hits coming from the students of Canterlot High.

10:05 at night Apple Bloom sighed victoriously. Right before she shut her eyes for the next day of school she said, "Good night Applejack. Hope you like the surprise of a little backstabber friend known as Sunset Shimmer. Soon it'll be sisterly time once more". She yawns one more and falls asleep.

11:30 at night time, more than a 100 hits liked the Piggly Wiggly post of Anon-A-Miss. Tomorrow gonna be a rough day for everyone...

Author's Note

That is how Anon-A-Miss is born and more will be on the way with the next few coming along with this arc. For the next few chapters I have in mind, it'll be the beginning stages of Anon-A-Miss before the separation.

Note there are some things I have used from the comic. The wording but not all of it from the comic after all While creating this alternate universe, I gotta pinpoint some major factors of the comic to this work of art.

Have any suggestions let me know and I'll see what I can do from there.

Any criticisms would be nice.

Enjoy this story and have a nice day/night once you've done reading it.

Slumber Party at Rarity's! Sweetie Belle Biggest Find! Anon-A-Miss Strikes Again! Sunset the Suspect! Scootaloo's Depression!

"Alright, girls! Time to party!" Pinkie shouted cheerfully.

Everyone shouted in joy. An Apple Themed party for Applejack since the appearance of Anon-A-Miss has skyrocketed on MyStable. The students of Canterlot High had been pretty hard on Applejack throughout the day. With the help of Pinkie Pie with the food and desserts, Rarity's Apple Theme design throughout her room to make Applejack feel at home and with a little help from Sweetie Belle to match the colors digitally before printing them as huge banners and stickers to mount on the walls. Pinkie Pie also set up some games with apples including a board game called Apples to Apples.

"Wow, girls, I am mighty thankful for what you have done to cheer me up. This is going to be a good long night." Applejack said.

"You're welcome, darling." Rarity answered.

Pinkie chimed in, "Yea. It's no problem whatsoever. Also, you gotta thank Sweetie Belle with these awesome designs. Who knew she was that good with computers?"

"Well, right before Rarity escorted Sweetie Belle out of the room, she was telling me about her computer skills. Sweetie Belle told me that she has a talent for designing digitally, making posters, and making sure everything was perfect." Fluttershy said in response.

"Well, I'll thank her tomorrow when we see each other in the morning." Applejack said.

"Enough about Sweetie Belle!" Rainbow shouted. "Time to get this party started!"

So it began. Pinkie Pie gathered her friends and split them into teams of 3. She had an idea for an apple scavenger hunt with various clues. Pinkie told the girls that each color apple have a difference in points. A red apple is worth 3 points, a green apple is worth 2 points, a yellow apple is worth 1 point, a half-eaten apple is worth half a point and a rotten apple is worth 0 points regardless of how many you picked up. Pinkie made it clear once you picked up an apple, you must keep it. No trading apples and no cheating. She was also holding a hat filled with 2 sets of 3 different numbers. That is how the order was going to be set. Then after the teams are made, Pinkie will hand out the sheet of questions and clues to where everyone needs to go for the apple hunt. The game will last 1 hour at most maybe an hour and a half depending on the type of clue. The apples are spread throughout the house except for Sweetie Belle's room and Rarity's parents' room.

"Alright girls." Pinkie said holding on to a hat with the numbers inside. "Pick a number and hold on to it. Then we'll find out who's teaming up with who and we'll get the scavenger hunt started."

One by one each of the girls picked a number from the hat. Pinkie Pie looked into the hat and saw her number. "I got #2. Who else got #2?"

"I did," Sunset answered.

"Nice!" Pinkie cheered.

"I got #1." Applejack said.

"Same here!" Rainbow shouted. "That is why I'm #1 and we're the best team for the scavenger hunt!"

That means Rarity and Fluttershy are #3. All the teams are now made and Pinkie gave Applejack and Rarity the scavenger hunt list.

"Oh, by the way, so that we're all clear. Rarity and I don't have a clue where the apples were scattered. I told Sweetie Belle to place the apples and come up with the list so that way the game itself is fair for everyone."

Rarity smiled, "How nice of you using my sister for your idea Pinkie. I'm sure when all of this is done, she'll be happy to know that all went well."

"Enough chit chatter!" Pinkie shouted. "It's time for the hunt!". Pinkie sets a timer for 90 minutes.`

Sunset examined the list and picked the harder question. "Hmm...What goes up and down but stays in place while hiding?"

After some thought, Pinkie answered, "Our apple is under the stairs!"

She and Sunset checked under the stairs. There is a special room but there is no lightbulb indicating that Sweetie Belle took it out to make it harder to see which apple to pick for the higher point. Pinkie reached in and grabbed a green apple.

"Nice. Off to a good start with 2 points." Sunset said, checking off the question from the list.

"To the next one!" Pinkie shouted once more.

Fluttershy picked out an easy question from the list, "In the kitchen, there are two cabinets. What is not right?"

"Left?" Rarity answered.

After opening the left cabinet an apple fell to the floor. Fluttershy closed the cabinet and picked up a yellow apple. "Uh does this count as picking up an apple?" She questioned. In response Rarity gave the nod and reminded Fluttershy about picking an apple and sticking but it. They scored 1 point, crossed the question off the list and moved on to the next.

Applejack looked at an easier clue on the list. "There are many steps to where I go but one place where I need to go.

"Eeew!" Rainbow cringed, "Sweetie Belle left an apple for us to find in the bathroom."

"Huh, I would have never guessed that Rainbow. So there is a brain in there after all." Applejack mocked and laughed a little.

Rainbow blushed a little but was infuriated with the statement. "Not funny Applejack!"

Applejack could only laugh a little but then apologize for teasing her a little. "I'll get the apple Rainbow just sit tight for a second."

Rainbow crossed her arms but smiled as she saw Applejack going to the bathroom. In the bathroom, Applejack flipped the switch but the lights didn't turn on. She figured that Sweetie Belle must have taken out the lightbulb to make it harder to see which apple to pick up. There was a little light bouncing off the mirror from outside the door and she was able to find a basket filled with apples. She still couldn't see which apple is which but could feel the texture of it. While working at an apple farm for so many years, she can tell the color of an apple just by feeling it. After picking up a smooth apple, she can tell already that she picked up a red apple. When leaving the bathroom, she was correct. She picked up a red apple in the bathroom giving her team 3 points. She went to Rainbow Dash showing the red apple. In excitement, Rainbow jumped up and did a fist pump. Soon after, Applejack crossed out the clue and went on the next one on the sheet.

Pinkie looked at the list and found an interesting question. "What can go around while in motion, has doors to open and places to be?"

After some thought, the answer became quite clear.

"A car," Sunset answered.

Pinkie gasps but then realize, "We don't have keys to their car. Also, I do not want to wake Rarity's family over a car alarm because of our game." Pinkie exclaimed.

Sunset thought about what Pinkie said but she went to the garage anyway to see if Sweetie Belle had unlocked the car doors. As Sunset went, Pinkie followed so that way, she could spot some watchers in case they were being spied on. To Sunset and Pinkie's surprise, the car doors were open and there are apples scattered in hiding places. Sunset guessed which one would be the better pick. She reached for an apple that was under a cushion in the passenger's seat and picked up a red apple. Pinkie gasped once more and celebrated Sunset's pick.

"Now we have 5 points. We're off to a great start!"

"Yes, we are Pinkie now on to the next," Sunset said.

Rarity picked the second clue and is a bit hard to make out but she can trust her instincts as well as Fluttershy's to figure it out. "I have two legs, but they only touch the ground while I'm at rest. What am I?"

It took approximately 10 minutes before Rarity realized the answer. It came loud and clear to her. "Ah good one little sis. That is quite a tricky one."

Fluttershy examined the sheet then asks, "Well what's the answer Rarity?"

"It's a wheelbarrow Fluttershy. My little sis can be clever when it comes to designing and creating. Come along to my workroom. That is where the wheelbarrow is."

Rarity escorted Fluttershy to her workroom. There was a basket but was covered in a black fabric sheet with a note attached. It said "Do not lift the fabric off the basket. Just feel and take the apple. Thanks for playing fair. Sweetie Belle."

"Fluttershy darling, how about you pick the apple since I answered the riddle." Rarity said.

"Alright then," Fluttershy responded. As she reached under the fabric, tickling her a little on the hand, she picked up a green apple.

"3 points in total but we must continue to win this game. Come along Fluttershy, we still have much work to do."

Rainbow Dash immediately picked a clue without hesitation and reads it, "When I'm born I fly. When I'm alive I lay. When I'm dead I run. What and where am I?"

After serious thought on this one, both girls decided to skip this clue. "Man Sweetie Belle, why make this question so hard for us?" Rainbow complained a little while taking the scavenger hunt very seriously. Rainbow now takes into full consideration by scanning the list and picking a better one. "A thing with a thundering breech. It weighing a thousand welly. I have heard it roar louder than Guy's wild boar. They say it hath death in its belly."

Rainbow and Applejack thought about it and thought of an answer at the same time.

"A cannon!"

"But where are we gonna find a cannon in Rarity's house!" Rainbow snorted.

After some thought, it came crystal clear.

"Of course, it's Pinkie's Party cannon." Applejack answered.

"Wait, what?" Rainbow questioned.

"Think about it, hun. Pinkie carries her party cannon everywhere when she needs it most. This is a slumber party and I'm pretty sure Pinkie brought her party cannon to help set up the party." Applejack responded.

After some thought, it came clear to Rainbow.

"All we gotta do is find Pinkie's party cannon and we'll have our apple."

They went back to Rarity's room knowing that'll be the first place where Pinkie Pie would have left it. It was right there next to the dresser. Rainbow Dash reached in and pulled a red apple. "Yes!" she shouted.

Applejack crossed out the clue off the list. "That's 6 points in total Dash. Let's pick up the pace before the others catch up."

An hour passed and the timer went off indicating everyone that the apple scavenger hunt is over. Everyone went back to Rarity's room and the teams were sitting in opposite ends of the room while Pinkie was in the middle. She told everyone to count the number of points in total. She has a surprise for each of the team starting from 1st place to 3rd place. She smiled and hoping that she and Sunset have the most points considering how smart Sunset is for solving most of the clues and questions on the list. After 10 minutes of counting and recounting, Pinkie then asks how many points does Applejack and Rainbow Dash have.

"After our findings Pinkie, our sum total is 19 points." Applejack said.

Pinkie asks the same question for Rarity and Fluttershy.

"We have 18 points darling." Rarity answered. "

As for us Pinkie, we have 23 points in total," Sunset said.

"What!? 23 points!" Rainbow shouted.

"How were you able one of the tougher clues on the list!?"

"Yea not to be rude or anything but, Fluttershy and I had a hard time figuring out this clue," she pointed at the clue on the sheet and read "When I'm born I fly. When I'm alive I lay. When I'm dead I run. What and where am I?".

"Oh, that one was quite easy. The answer was snow and it was outside. So easy to the point that you can pick the red apple in the crystal clear snow." Sunset answered.

"What!?" Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Rainbow shouted.

"Actually, all the apples outside were red so I think Sweetie Belle did that on purpose," Pinkie responded.

"Well, what a darn shame," Applejack said in defeat.

"Well, now we know what the scores are, time for prizes!" Pinkie shouted one more in joy.

Pinkie Pie went into the closet and picked out the 3rd place prizes. "For you Rarity and Fluttershy, two $15 gift cards to Canterlot Mall Pet Store." She handed the gift cards to Rarity and Fluttershy. They scanned the cards.

"Thank you, darling, it'll be quite easier to make payments for Opal." Rarity said gratefully.

"Yea, Pinkie" Fluttershy said in response, "Angel gonna like the new toy I saw at the shop the other day."

"You're welcome, girls. Thanks for playing the game." Pinkie cheered as she went back to the closet to pick up the 2nd place prizes. "For you Applejack and Rainbow, I have two $20 gift cards to Canterlot Mall Sporting Goods Store." She handed the gift cards to Rainbow and Applejack.

"Thank you Pinkie Pie. I truly appreciate this." Applejack said as she smiled at her friend.

"Yea! Now I can get a new soccer ball to practice!" Rainbow shouted.

"You're welcome, girls. Thanks for playing the game." Pinkie cheered once more and went to the closet for the 1st place prizes. She gave Sunset not only $25 gift card to Canterlot Mall Just Salad restaurant but a big hug as well. Sunset could only smile at her friend.

"Thank you Pinkie Pie for being such a great friend," Sunset said as a tear of joy came out of her eye.

"Thank you Pinkie and Rarity for this Apple Themed Slumber Party to cheer me up. Today was just brutal but I'm glad to have friends like you supporting me and us when we need you the most." Applejack said with a tear of joy as well. Pinkie and Rarity smiled and everyone decided to have a group hug for this heartwarming moment.

After 10 minutes of getting all the other apples from the hiding places where Sweetie Belle picked from the girls were now enjoying the delicious treats that Pinkie Pie baked. Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow, Fluttershy, Sunset, and Pinkie are enjoying themselves as they were playing Apples to Apples having a good laugh. All is going well for the girls on their second day of the slumber party stretch. After their game of Apples to Apples, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy got up, grabbed their brushes and started to sing. Rainbow and Fluttershy were singing on the floor while Pinkie was singing on top of Rarity's bed. As they were singing, Sunset Shimmer decided to record everything that was happening to treasure the memory. Pinkie got overzealous with her singing that she decided to do a stage dive. Not realizing that there aren't enough people to catch her, she winds up crashing into Rarity's closet breaking the door. As Sunset and Applejack laughed, Rainbow and Fluttershy hitting the floor so they don't get hurt, Rarity was quite mad with Pinkie for breaking her closet door. As Pinkie got up to apologize to Rarity, Pinkie was wearing a lot of different clothes. She then asks Rarity about the clothes.

At the same moment of time, before Pinkie crashed into Rarity's closet, Sweetie Belle was still quite awake. She couldn't sleep knowing that her big sister basically kicked her out of her room, out of the party after making it perfect for her and her friends. She was pissed to the point of screaming and shouting but instead within her mind came a twisted thought. With her now being part of Anon-A-Miss and promising Apple Bloom that she'll find something embarrassing to post, she just needed the right time to not only get her sister back but wreck her for the times of being ignored and thrown away like trash. She was on her computer checking out Anon-A-Miss's status. So far over 500 like and over 400 comments as well as 200 shares for Piggly Wiggly. Sweetie Belle could only laugh at the misery that Applejack had to put up with. When the sound of Pinkie Pie crashing into Rarity's closet, she got up, turned her computer off and tipped toed towards her sister's door. She then opens it a little to see what all the fuss was about. Sweetie Belle notices that Pinkie had crashed into Rarity's closet of shame. An instant reminder of fashion designs gone wrong. When she saw Pinkie Pie asking Rarity about the clothes, this gave a perfect opportunity for Sweetie Belle. With her parents sleeping and her sister's friends not being close to the door, she knew that she was going to get a big scoop of embarrassment for Apple Bloom. How excited she is that a perfect opportunity came literally knocking on the door. She thought that technically it was a crash but it was good enough to see what was happening.

"This is my closet of shame. It's where I put the outfits that I make or buy that turned out to look horrible." Rarity answered. She examines the clothes once more as Pinkie puts on an outfit. "I clean it out and donate to a clothing drive occasionally. I should probably do so again."

"What are you talking about" Pinkie questioned. "This stuff is great!" Pinkie then comes up with a great idea. "Hey girls, let's dress up with Rarity's so-called shame clothing and take some selfies!"

Everyone but Rarity agreed. Each of them dressing up and posing for Sunset's phone. Pinkie wore an oversized flowery gown for the selfie. Rainbow dressed in an 80's outfit while holding a mic for the selfie. Applejack dressed up as a rock star with her bass guitar for the selfie. Sunset wore a nice style red tuxedo and a hat while Applejack dress like a hippie and Rainbow wore an orange scarf glasses for the selfie. As Fluttershy was about to take her selfie, Rainbow Dash popped in scaring her wearing Dracula's clothing ready to suck her blood out. Pinkie then switched back to the first outfit she wore telling Rarity that her clothes are perfect for outraging selfies.

As Sunset tries on another set of clothes from the closet of shame, she does make a statement about the clothes. "These are funky clothes Rarity."

"Yea!" Rainbow shouted. "Check me out!", she said as she was posing for another picture. It was right there that Rarity gave the approval for the girls to try out all the clothing she has inside the closet of shame for selfies. Basically, the stamp of approval but unknowingly to them, that stamp of approval gave Sweetie Belle the green light for Anon-A-Miss.

Sweetie Belle just needs to grab Sunset's phone. With the pics and selfies are taken on the phone, that gives more than enough evidence for Anon-A-Miss next posting. Also, another idea came to her mind. She went back to her room and started to call Apple Bloom.

Apple Bloom like last night, couldn't sleep either. Knowing that she's missing out on all the fun with her big sis and friends. All she can feel is emptiness and vengeance for being not only left out but being abandoned by her big sis. Apple Bloom heard her phone going off and she reached for it to answer the call. "Hello?" She answered waiting for a response.

"I have not one but two great ideas for us Apple Bloom."

A smile came on Apple Bloom's face. "Tell me, what are your ideas Sweetie Belle," Apple Bloom said.

"For starters, Rarity just revealed her clothing from the closet of shame to her friends. They have already taken selfies."

"Good work Sweetie Belle, this will be big for Anon-A-Miss!" Apple Bloom said excitedly.

"Wait, there's more. The selfies were taken on Sunset Shimmer's phone."

Eyes widen on Apple Bloom's face. She could not believe what she was hearing and yet just fascinated by the idea that Sweetie Belle had in mind. "Go on! Continue!" Apple Bloom shouted.

"When the selfies are on Anon-A-Miss's account, you, Scootaloo and I tell Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash that there can only be one person in this entire school who could have those pics and that is Sunset Shimmer. Who else would have gotten to her phone while she was asleep and everyone else was asleep? Giving a false sense towards Sunset and realization, our sisters will turn on Sunset and come back to us."

A smile and a tear formed on Apple Bloom. For the first time in a while, she felt happy that something was going to work out for the better. "If our sisters and Rainbow questions our theory then it is up to us to remind them of how loyal we are, remind them of Sunset's devious behavior that she went through for years and let them know deep and personally about family. That would give us the opportunity to have Sunset out of their lives and things go back to normal."

Apple Bloom could only smile. She has no words to say for the moment. All that Sweetie Belle just said was perfect enough. "Alright Sweetie, we'll go with your idea. Be careful not to get caught and I'll text Scootaloo so she'll know what to do tomorrow. Have a good night Sweetie Belle." She hangs up the phone and started to text to Scootaloo.

At this moment in time, Scootaloo couldn't even sleep. Her mom went to check on her. Within her mother's eyes, all she can see is Scootaloo being an empty shell as silence reigned. Scootaloo not only misses her father but miss being around Rainbow Dash. Scootaloo only has her mother but she too has to work. It has been very hard for Scootaloo for the past few months. At first, it was ok for her. She got to hang out with Rainbow from time to time after hearing that her father had to go to war on the eastern side of the planet. She took it hard but was glad that she had someone to look up too. It wasn't until the Battle of the Bands when everything started to change for Scootaloo. Rainbow Dash stopped hanging out with her and winds up hanging out with Sunset Shimmer more often. She even stopped taking her home after school. Scootaloo has told her mom previous times about the bullying. She asked Scootaloo about transferring out but that wasn't an option for her because of her only two friends. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom. Her mom tried talking to the authorities about the bullying but all they can do is send patrols to the streets. She even tried talking to both Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna about the bullying. Both Principals told her what happens outside of the school's boundaries is off limit to them. Scootaloo's mother went up to her daughter and hugged her. Scootaloo can only hug back before lying back down looking out the window. Her mom told her that no matter what happens, she along with her dad will always love you. She kisses on her daughter's forehead and went to her room to rest. As her mom left, Scootaloo received a text message from Apple Bloom explaining their next phase with Anon-A-Miss. After reading the entire text, she smiled a little bit but then frowns. She was too sad to feel any excitement. She knows what to do but when being left behind by Rainbow Dash that treats her like a sister and her father being across the globe, all she can feel is emptiness. After another sad sigh, she yawns and fell asleep.

After a few more poses and a group selfie on Sunset's phone, Rarity remembers that she has a present for both Sunset Shimmer and Applejack. She went into her closet of glory and pulled out two big presents. She gave each one to Applejack and Sunset. Applejack is the first to unwrap and open her gift. What she saw was a new design of apple boots, brown tights, an orange skirt customize with apples, a green apple belt, and a brown vest.

"Wow Rarity! Thanks for the new outfit!"

As soon as Sunset saw Applejack's gift she unwrapped and opened her present. What she saw was a new style of grey boots with a black belt, blue tights, yellow skirt, a blue shirt and a new leather jacket to match the boots.

"Wow Rarity, I love this new outfit you got me."

"It's no problem girls. After all, what are friends for."

Both Applejack and Sunset smiled as they got up to hug Rarity. The girls were getting tired as it is nearly 11:00 at night. The girls got into their pajamas and fell asleep. All except for Sunset Shimmer who decided to write to Twilight about the day 2 of the slumber party stretch. After she finished writing hoping for an instant message from Twilight, there was no answer. She shrugged it off immediately and went to sleep.

Sweetie Belle was getting tired as well but couldn't go to sleep just yet. She waited a while not for the girls to sleep. It is now 11:30 at night and the girls were vastly asleep. Sweetie Belle snuck into Rarity's room without making a sound. She went into Sunset's bag and took her phone. She then walks back out of Rarity's room and hurried back to her room.

She locked the door and went to her computer. To her surprise, Sunset didn't have any lock sequences on her phone making it easier for her to access. After finding a whole lot of selfies with the ugly clothes, she picked out the best ones to post on Anon-A-Miss's MyStable account. She then types the perfect setting that'll make her sister cry for days. Wishing she never shown her friends about the ugly clothes in her closet of shame. Also making her feel disgusted for having a friend like Sunset Shimmer come in, pretend to be good and merciful only to be a backstabbing bitch. Last but not least, making her regret about leaving her sister behind for a monster. All Sweetie Belle has to do at some point to tell her what she has done to her and what a horrible act you did by kicking your own sister out after helping to make the party perfect. Also, for taking the time to create and design the apple scavenger game. That'll put the nail in the coffin to ensure that something like this will never happen. That she will get her sister back and more. Sweetie Belle texted to her friends about Anon-A-Miss newest post. They were too tired to look at the screens to see so in the morning, they'll find out how many hits they have in the new post.

Morning has come. Sweetie Belle is the first to wake up. She went to her computer to check and see if anything has happened on Anon-A-Miss MyStable page. There was an increasing amount of hits already. Over 100 likes, 30 comments, and 35 shares. Sweetie Belle was quite amazed to see how many students and people were liking, laughing and mocking over the selfies. She couldn't be happier than she was right now.

After she turned off her computer, she went back to her sister's room quietly. All the girls were still asleep from last night's slumber party. Sweetie Belle puts Sunset's phone back in the bag and hurried out of the room. She took a look at the time. It is 6:30 in the morning. She then decides to knock on the door pretty loudly to wake her sister up. Rarity along with her friends groaned. Rarity got up from her bed and looked down at her younger sister.

"Sweetie darling, it's too early for jokes," she yawned. "What do you want?"

"Well, I'm just letting you know that I won't be here with you and your friends to go to school together. I have a meeting to go to. Also, It's 6:30 and I thought it'd be nice to let you know that you and your friends have another half hour to sleep before getting ready for school."

Once again Rarity yawned but smiled. "Thank you, Sweetie. Now get going. I don't want you to be late ok?" She kissed and hugged her sister. "I'll see you later then." Sweetie Belle went off to see if her mom was awake.

Rarity closed the door as she saw her sister going off.

"What the heck was all that?" Rainbow groaned as she woke up a little. "Oh, my sister just wanted me to know that she won't be joining us in the morning. Reminding me that she has a meeting and letting us know we have less than a half hour of sleep." Rarity yawned once more as she got back into her bed. Sunset, however, got up and got ready to start her day. She reached into her bag and got the clothes she's gonna wear today. She decided not to wear the new outfit that Rarity gave her. She was going to save it for another day. Anyways she wore her regular outfit and went to the kitchen to make some coffee.

Sweetie Belle and her mom went off to Canterlot High. Her mom kissed her on the head and told her to have a great day at school. Sweetie Belle smiled and waved at her mom as she was driving away. Sweetie Belle message her friends Applebloom and Scootaloo to meet up at the library for another meeting. After she texted her friends, she went off to the computer science labs for her meeting.

Around that same exact time as Sweetie Belle went to her meeting, Apple Bloom has gotten out of bed and getting ready. She saw Anon-A-Miss newest post and she was happy to see the results. After reading Sweetie Belle's text, she is trying to think of any outcomes to get her sister into thinking that Sunset truly is Anon-A-Miss. She roleplayed in her mind and thought of the best ways to express the situation at hand. After hearing Big Mac calling for her, she grabbed her laptop, her phone, her bag, and her chargers. Today gonna be a rough day for her big sister once more but it is for a good reason.

15 minutes later, Scootaloo was already ready for school. Her depression is eating her alive. Being lonely brought nothing but pain and misery. She knows what must be done. To gain some happiness back. To have Rainbow back in her life and to have her protect her from the bullies. She thought if Rainbow can see who's been bullying her for so long, she can tell Celestia about Lightning Dust and Gilda. Hoping that they'll either get suspended or expelled. All she had to do is put up a fake smile and go forth with Anon-A-Miss no matter how much pain she feels inside. Luckily for Scootaloo, her mom can actually drop her off at school. All she had to do was wait until her mom finishes getting ready. Another 10 minutes have passed and Scootaloo's mother was ready to go.

Around this exact time, everyone at Rarity's house was getting ready to go except for Sunset who was the first to get ready. She had a feeling today gonna be another long day but for tonight, the slumber party will be at Rainbow Dash's house. Considering the fact it's more likely to be a sports/game night. Either way, that party gonna be good especially when Pinkie Pie is involved in designing the party to it's every need. "Are you girls ready to go?" Sunset asked. They all nodded in agreement. Everyone went off together heading towards Canterlot High.

25 minutes later, the girls have arrived at school. Sweetie Belle's meeting ended short. Apple Bloom and Scootaloo waited by the door to greet the girls. Apple Bloom took notice of Scootaloo's expression but brushed it off for the time being. Apple Bloom went up to her sister Applejack.

"Ready for our classes sis?"

"Yes, Apple Bloom. I am ready to work together during history, social studies, and algebra." Applejack answered as she yawned a little from last night's fun.

"Well then," Apple Bloom exclaimed, "We gotta get going cause the next bell is in 5 minutes."

"Alright ya, I'll see you, girls, later."

Scootaloo went up to Rainbow Dash, "Ready for gym class Rainbow Dash!", she shouted in joy but her emotions gave off a little. Rainbow Dash noticed Scootaloo's expressions but brushes it off. "

Sure thing kiddo," patting her a little.

"Good cause we have a long 2-period training in the back. Starting off with soccer drills before the scrimmage." Scootaloo said with a lighter tone.

As for Sweetie Belle, she went up to Rarity, "Ready for art class, English class, and geometry class sis?"

Rarity kneels down "Yes, darling. I'm ready. Time to go to class now."

As soon as Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow went off with Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, and Scootaloo, Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Sunset Shimmer went their separate ways. Sunset had a variety of classes that she'd be alone except for lunch. Its gonna be a long morning for her but she'll manage every time she has during the school year.

1 minute had passed and Sweetie Belle asks Rarity something really important for her to hear. With time to spare, Rarity was more than willing to listen to her dear sister.

"What is it that you have to tell me Sweetie Belle?"

"Well, you know that yesterday Anon-A-Miss have posted something personal of Applejack right? Well, I was wondering, have you considered Sunset to be Anon-A-Miss?"

Rarity gasped. She was shocked and horrified to hear her sister for what she said. "

Sweetie Belle, get a grip, Sunset is my friend! She'll never do that!"

"Well, Sunset did go on a mean streak messing people up with secrets. Splitting friendships apart, blackmailing and finding secrets to expose. Have you consider that at the least?"

After some serious thought, it came clear to why Sweetie Belle would suggest Sunset Shimmer as a prime suspect. Throughout the years at Canterlot High, Sunset did a lot of awful things especially to her. As Rarity thought about Sunset, Sweetie Belle took the chance and said, "Let's not forget that Sunset did the most unbelievable thing back at the Fall Formal. Going into a rage state to get what she wanted."

When Rarity heard that from Sweetie Belle, she questioned that theory.

"Why would you think that when Twilight and we stopped Sunset when she went into her Raging She-Demon transformation. Also, Sunset is the one who saved us from the sirens."

"Well Rarity, ain't it obvious that she's using your generosity as an advantage. She is great at manipulations and if I know any better, I believe she's using your darkest secrets as for revenge against you. After all, she's an all-powerful pony from another world. Compare that to someone you know dearly as a friend."

This statement stunned Rairty. Sweetie Belle pretty much sealed the deal. Everything her beloved had said was true. Rarity could not think of one person who would do such a thing. Sweetie Belle then showed her sister a new post from Anon-A-Miss on her phone. Rarity heart was pounding fast. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. All of the selfies that were taken from last night's slumber party was right there in front of her. Everything in her mind for defending her friend has been washed away. A fire lit up inside of her ready to burst. Rarity has never felt hatred until today. Tears streaming from her eyes ruining her makeup. She clenches her fist readying herself to hit something or someone. Sweetie Belle can see in her sister's eyes the pain that's going deep inside of her. Sweetie Belle can only feel happiness and that her plan was working. Anon-A-Miss has made a bigger impact that she could have dreamed of. A thought came to her mind. A sinister thought that brew making her smile some more. Sweetie Belle went to her sister and hugged her.

"Rarity, just to let you know that I'm here for you in times of need."

Rarity is shocked to hear her little sister say that.

"Family sticks together and you know what Rarity?"

Rarity can only look down on her sister that is still hugging her. "What darling?", she sniffed.

"There are people in this world or not of this world that are not worth the trouble. There will always be those who pretend to be good but they're nothing but monsters in reality." Sweetie Belle said smiling and making sure her older sister gets the message.

After hearing everything Sweetie Belle said to her, she accepted the reality that Sunset Shimmer is a backstabbing monster. "You're right Sweetie Belle. Sunset is nothing more than a backstabber who's only out for herself and seeks revenge on those who oppose her. I wish I saw that coming like you can." Sighs a little while holding to her sister. "Thank you Sweetie Belle for being such a great sister to me. When I get the chance to talk to my friends especially Sunset Shimmer, I'll invite you as well. Family sticks together and you did an amazing job with the apple scavenger hunt last night." She kissed her sister on the head. Sweetie Belle felt so happy that she kissed her sister on the cheek.

Then both of them went to class smiling while Rarity awaits torment from her fellow classmates but with Sweetie Belle by her side, what can go wrong?

At the same moment of time, Apple Bloom had something to say to Applejack, with a few minutes to spare, Applejack decides to listen what Apple Bloom had to say.

"I know that Anon-A-Miss made an impact on everyone at school yesterday especially you sis but there is something that I need you to know about."

"Well shucks Apple Bloom, spit it out. What do you have to tell me?" Applejack said in a disgruntled tone.

"I think Sunset Shimmer is the one who is behind Anon-A-Miss."

Without hesitation, Applejack tugged on Apple Bloom's arm a little. "What was that missy?!"

"Now think about it Applejack, who else would have done it in this school. Who would do such a thing as spilling secrets to make everyone feel bad and everyone to laugh at? It has to be Sunset Shimmer! She's the only one in this school who has done it for years! Blackmailing other students, being a bully, knowing how to get in everyone's skin, destroying friendships for laughs. Should I keep going or you want to rethink what I said?"

Applejack released Apple Bloom's arm. The realization of what Apple Bloom just said made absolute sense to her. Sunset did a lot of things that'll more likely to get any student expelled.

"But Apple Bloom, Sunset is a changed person. Twilight and we defeated her back at the Fall Formal. For complete sakes, she saved us from the Sirens! Sunset would never do such a thing like!" Applejack pleaded. Defending Sunset's honor as a friend.

"Well big sis, if Sunset is truly your friend then whose phone took these selfies then?"

Applejack froze. Stunned by her sister's statements. Stunned by the selfies that were posted. She knew only one person who would have these photos and its none other than Sunset Shimmer.

"If I didn't know any better Applejack, I think Sunset was using you. Using you to get revenge that her plans for the Fall Formal. Using the Sirens as an advantage to gain your trust as a friend. Getting to know you better to find the flaws in your life and expose for everyone to see. Sorry Applejack but I think that what I'm saying may confirm everything that has been going on."

Applejack couldn't think straight. She tried to think of possible ways that it would not be Sunset Shimmer. Only a few people in her life know about Piggly Wiggly. Her friends and family. In a quick instance, she turned to Apple Bloom, anger in her face and ready to give a beating to someone.

"Apple Bloom....be honest here. Did you post that Anon-A-Miss Piggly Wiggly crap online?!" Applejack said while trying to calm herself. It is the last resort her mind could ever think of.

"Why would I betray family like that Applejack? We are apples and apples don't betray unless there is a greater purpose. You know that Applejack. You know I have nothing to gain from hurting you." she said in a calm loving tone. Apple Bloom sees how disgusted Applejack is. The anger on her face pretty much said it all. Then all of a sudden, Applejack hugged her sister closely and tightly as she could.

"Sorry Apple Bloom, I should have never thought that you are the one who'll do such a monstrous act like that. Can you forgive your big sister for assuming you?" Without hesitation, Apple Bloom knew that she's gonna get her big sister back. "Sure Applejack but on one condition."

Applejack was curious to know what her sister had in mind. "Sure anything." She answered.

"I want to come with you and your friends to the slumber party tonight. I'm gonna be honest here Applejack, I miss having fun with you and I want to be a part of something that we can share as a family."

Applejack nodded in agreement, "Of course you can come sugarcube. I just need to talk things through with my friends and Sunset Shimmer. After that, I'm pretty sure everything would work out for you."

"Thank you, sis!" They continued to hug. Having a heart to heart moment as sisters.

10 minutes later, Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo were in the locker room getting ready for soccer practice. With 5 minutes to spare Scootaloo had something to say to Rainbow Dash. Rainbow being all ears for Scootaloo as she looked down at her, Rainbow can still see the expressions that Scootaloo were still having.

"What's on your mind squirt?" She questioned readying herself for Scootaloo's response.

"Well Rainbow Dash, with Anon-A-Miss on the horizon, have you considered anyone from school to be a suspect of her?"

Rainbow had her eyebrow raised up in confusion.

"Not really Scoots but judging from your question, I think you know who it can be."

"I think Anon-A-Miss is really Sunset Shimmer," Scootaloo said in a low tone.

"What?!" Rainbow shouted. "You think Anon-A-Miss is Sunset Shimmer?!" Rainbow shouted disgruntledly. "Why would you of all people point out one of my best friends?! You better have a really good reason why Scoots!" Rainbow quick to anger. She's ready to give Scootaloo a spanking for what she is saying.

Scootaloo sighs "I think it's Sunset Shimmer because who in our school's history has done nothing more than blackmailing, exposing secrets, shattering friendships, getting each other to either betray or laugh at their misery? Who else has the experience of doing so Rainbow Dash?"

Rainbow was petrified for what Scootaloo just said to her. She calmed herself long enough to take a deep breathe and think about what Scootaloo just told her. She had made an excellent point of Sunset and how good she was being a monster in the school. A queen bee ruling the school under her thumb while the Principals had no saying for the matter. A thought came to Rainbow's mind.

"You make a valid point Scoots but, explain to me why you still choose her. Twilight and we stopped Sunset Shimmer at the Fall Formal and it was Sunset who saved us from the Sirens. What is it that she has to gain by exposing us?"

Another sigh came from Scootaloo as she got straight to the point.

"Manipulation stupid."

Rainbow slapped Scootaloo in the face for calling her stupid. Her rage was spiking out of control. She then realizes that Scootaloo is hurt. She fell to her knees. Sick to her stomach that not only Scootaloo made her point but she just slapped her out of anger. Knowing that Scootaloo is not looking all that great.

"Sorry, Scootaloo......I'm so sorry!! I...I don't know what got over me." In tears already Rainbow Dash realized her mistake.

Scootaloo sighs but doesn't acknowledge the pain. She's already been put too much of for months now.

"Rainbow, Sunset is good at one thing and its manipulation. She's using you and your friends as a scapegoat to get closer to you. To expose anything that can benefit her and why you may ask? I'll tell you right now. She's thinking about getting revenge on you. What a better way to strike is by using a Trojan Horse. Then she can pick up everything she needs to expose you and your friends once and for all. If you think I'm crazy or thinking that I'm making this up then think. You are in her shoes. You got the skills necessary to get away. You have the opportunity to not only get revenge but an opportunity to learn something new. I know Twilight have told you and your friends to watch out for her but I think she meant to watch out for the demon she is deep inside of her."

After hearing Scootaloo's statement, Rainbow Dash had no more words. Her anger spiked out of control, she thought of everything that Scootaloo had said. Pictured it in her mind and it became so obvious that a preteen can figure it out. Scootaloo had figured out the truth about Anon-A-Miss and in return, she got slapped by some she can trust. What a horrible feeling in her gut. Rainbow was ready to vomit but Scootaloo went up and hugged her.

"I forgive you for hurting me. I know you care but please, take care of yourself better and wait for the right time to strike."

Rainbow was just speechless. She can only think of ways to get Scootaloo to not only trust her again but ways of making things right with her. She came up with an idea.

"Hey Scootaloo, I know what I have done is no excuse but I want to personally invite you to my slumber party tonight. I have to talk to my friends and Sunset Shimmer about some things."

Scootaloo for the first time felt happiness but her depression is telling her otherwise.

"That sounds good Rainbow Dash but I need to think about it."

"Take your time kiddo and after school, I'll walk you back home. I'll also be waiting for you. How does that sound?"

Once again, too good to be true and yet again, her depression says otherwise.

"Sounds good Rainbow. Now let's go out there and be awesome!" She shouted and smiled.

Rainbow Dash smiled as well, patted Scootaloo and they both went into the soccer field together.

It is now 11:45. Classes are dismissed and students were on their way to the cafeteria. Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Rarity meet with each other. They were stunned, angry and sad.

Silenced reigned. Applejack was the first to speak "Judging by your expressions and by this whole Anon-A-Miss thing, I think we now know who's guilty in all this."

"Sunset Shimmer", both Rarity and Rainbow said.

Applejack could only sigh. "I'm guessing Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo told you since they were able to figure it out huh?" "

Yea." Rarity said in a sad mode. "It makes perfect sense. All of it. Sweetie Belle made a bold statement and it is true." "

Dash?" Applejack questioned.

"Scootaloo told me the truth and all I can feel is hatred towards that conniving little backstabbing bitch. When I get my hands on her, I'll shred her to pieces!" Rainbow shouted in anger.

Fluttershy and Pinkie went up to the girls that were outside of the hallway. Pinkie and Fluttershy throughout their classes were teased and made fun of all morning long. They saw Anon-A-Miss newest feed and were fed up. Only one person would have taken those pics and put them online. Both Pinkie and Fluttershy thought that it'd be Sweetie Belle since she is good at computers. When they approached their friends, however, they seemed to not be ok. Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow explained how Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo figured out who's behind all of this. Fluttershy did not want to believe it at all but after babysitting them for a long time now, she knows in her heart that they were innocent enough as it is, giving an explanation of how Sunset is a mastermind of manipulation, it came clear to her. As for Pinkie Pie, she listened, questioned and theorized but it all led to the point of Sunset Shimmer. It made sense. Complete sense. Sense to the point that there is no turning back. If a couple of preteens can see the picture then why not they?

"So it's settled then. When we see Sunset Shimmer, we'll have our brief talk, end our so-called friendship with her then exile her from not only the slumber parties but from our lives." Applejack stated.

Without hesitation, the girls agreed with Applejack and went off looking for her.

At the same moment of time, the CMC were having their meeting at the back end of the library. Like many times, no one else was there except for them.

"Alright girls, I believe we accomplished our goal. Our sisters gonna drop Sunset Shimmer as a friend thus we all get to hang out once more." Apple Bloom said happily.

"Yea, things are getting better. The whole school will soon find out that Sunset Shimmer is behind Anon-A-Miss. My sister Rarity doesn't think I'm Anon-A-Miss."

"My sister Applejack thought it'd be me but after I told her an apple story which was true by the way, she confirmed that I had nothing to do with it. What about you Scootaloo? What did Rainbow say?"

Scootaloo paused. She's been trying to feel any emotion for all of this but her depression wouldn't allow it. Scootaloo has been holding her cheek where Rainbow had slapped her at. She kept on thinking about her dad the most. Rainbow Dash is not even on her mind right now.

"Huh, wha...yea. Rainbow has no idea that I was part of it. I went straight to the point, called her stupid for not realizing the damn situation thus, Rainbow went into a rage stage. I think she's more than ready to talk to Sunset now." She exclaimed but sadness is all that was ridden on the young girl's face.

"Scootaloo, are you ok?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Yea I'm fine, just under the weather. Nothing to get worried about. So did any of you got invited to the slumber party at Rainbow Dash's house?"

Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom nodded in agreement.

"Good. To start a new, one must be.....taken out of the equation."

"Then it's settled. The Career Making Crusaders are going to start a new chapter in life by having the sleepover and unforgettable times!" As Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle cheered. Scootaloo got up and left her friends for the time being. She needed to find her happiness again before things go wrong for her.

The principal made an announcement for Scootaloo to come into her office. This is what her depression was telling her. Something bad was happening. Scootaloo sighs in sadness and went towards Principal Celestia's office. A few moments later she knocked on the door.

"Come in the door is open," Celestia said in a calm tone.

Scootaloo walked in looking all sad. Celestia could see her young student's expression. What she has to say would not be easy but she has a job to do.

"Please have a seat Scootaloo. There is something important that I have to tell you."

"Is it about my dad?" Scootaloo questioned.

Celestia could only sigh admitting that it does have something to do with her dad. This whole time, Scootaloo has been worried about her dad not making it back home. That gut feeling never left her ever since her dad had to go to war.

"Scootaloo, it is my deepest regard that I must inform you that your father, Sergeant Speedy Bullet has passed away last night. I am terribly sorry for your loss. Your mother has contacted me to let you know that not only your father left our world but your mother is taking you home early today."

The one thing that plagued Scootaloo had finally come true. Scootaloo froze. Celestia got up from her chair and hugged her student.

"I am so sorry this has happened to you." Scootaloo cried in Celestia's arms not wanting to believe what she said was true but her depression told her it was. Scootaloo cried for a while as Celestia was comforting her. Something in which Scootaloo hasn't felt in such a long time. Despite her mom working a lot and have little time to be with her, Celestia is the closest person to have to comfort. Her father Speedy Bullet died a hero in battle. Vice Principal came in to let Scootaloo know that her mom was here to pick her up. Scootaloo then wiped her tears.

"Scootaloo, I want you to take the rest of the week off from school. I'll see you in the new year." Scootaloo felt any sort of happiness drained. All she can feel is more misery and pain. Finding her happiness will be harder than it looks. Scootaloo then leaves her principal's office and went home with her mother.

"Any word on this Anon-A-Miss story Luna?" Celestia questioned.

"Yea," Luna answered, "there have been rumors about Sunset Shimmer being back to herself once more out of vengeance. I don't believe it but the evidence is compelling. What students been saying especially Sweetie Belle who made an ideal statement on why Sunset Shimmer would do such a thing. As anyone has ever said, looks can be deceiving. Therefore, I believe that Sunset is truly Anon-A-Miss but we have to play it by ear."

"Alright then, we'll wait and see what happens next," Celestia stated.

It is now 12:20. With 40 minutes to go in the lunch period. Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy are now searching for Sunset Shimmer to have a talk about Anon-A-Miss.
