Changelings Task Force

● DISCORD ●

“Discord, can you help me,” Luna asked

“What can I do for you,” Discord asked

“I need you to contact Queen to create some paperwork. I don't care the legality of it; just do it. Can you please retrieve a book from Sunset’s house,” she asked “And find this ‘Anon-a-Miss’ user.”

“Will do,” he said with a salute “We're getting the Changelings back together, huh?”

“Temporary reunion,” she replied

“Fine with me.”

Discord headed into Luna’s office and changed into a Kevlar bodysuit and grabbed his earpiece and black motorcycle helmet before getting his boots on and running out the school.

“Queen; it's Chaos. I need your help,” Discord said

“Long time since I heard that name before. What can I do for you commander,” Chrysalis asked

“I need you to create some documents for me being Sunset Shimmer’s guardian. Just say that I permitted her to live in the apartment near me. Look into finding who Anon-a-Miss is also,” he said

“Will do,” she said

Discord headed to his apartment block and to Sunset’s residence to retrieve the requested item. Having lived there for years, he knew the activities of everyone to not get caught; of course none of them would report him for breaking & entering.

“Ah, apartment 13. Sunset, I'm sorry,” Discord said to himself

Once he picked the lock on the door, he crept in and lifted his visor to see clearly. The book in question was sitting open on the living room table.

‘Answer me now, dammit! Don't commit suicide! We love you!
Twilight Sparkle & Celestia’

“I guess that's the book Luna wanted,” he said

He closed the book and stuck it in his pocket before heading back to the school.

“Reaper, the package is retrieved. Any word from Queen yet,” he asked

“Nothing. Get back ASAP. Something bad is going to happen soon,” Luna replied through his earpiece looking at the school's CCTV cameras

“Queen; how's it coming?”

“Paperwork is done. Congrats on being the guardian. As to the second, I've found some information about the culprit. They're a student at CHS. I can't pin down an exact suspect without assistance,” Chrysalis replied

Discord headed back to school a few minutes before noon. He ducked into Luna’s office and changed into his regular patchwork suit before throwing the other in a drawer and heading out.

“Ah, Discord. You accomplished what I asked,” Luna asked as he returned

“Of course, Captain. Here's the book you want. Although I wouldn't tell anything to your friend, the Princess, just yet,” Discord answered “I also have a friend working on some paperwork as well. Chrysalis is completing that as we speak.”

“Very well. You made sure no one saw you,” Luna asked

“I wouldn't be who I am if someone did,” he replied

“Let's get out of here and head to my office. Police are on their way,” Celestia said

The group followed behind their principals and managed to fit everyone in the office. Discord sat on the desk while Luna and Celestia sat down in their chairs.

“Who the hell are you,” Dash asked pointing at Discord

“I was a former commander of Special Forces with my friend Chrysalis. I'm not getting into detail, but we've taken care of events like this before,” Discord answered

“Discord was under my leadership with the Changelings. He was simply known as ‘Chaos’ while I was known as ‘Reaper’,” Luna replied while Discord received a message on his phone

‘C- I've done with what I can. Hope you're safe, Q’

● CHRYSALIS ●

“Long time since I heard that name before. What can I do for you commander,” Chrysalis asked

“I need you to create some documents for me being Sunset Shimmer’s guardian. Just say that I permitted her to live in the apartment near me. Look into finding who Anon-a-Miss is,” Discord said

“Will do.”

Sitting in her house, Chrysalis began working on her assignments. Creating falsified documents was child's play, but finding this Anon-a-Miss wasn't to easy.

“Let's see, ‘Discord Drago is the legal guardian of Sunset Shimmer. He gave permission to her to take resistance in the apartment as long as he could keep track of her’,” she said to herself

“That's the easy part. Let's see; Anon-a-Miss is a user on MyStable. Logins originate from Canterlot High Stop, but there's a wall. I can't access specific users without having police involvement.”

“Queen; how's it coming,” he asked through the earpiece

“Paperwork is done. Congrats on being the guardian. As to the second, I've found some information about the culprit. They're a student at CHS. I can't pin down an exact suspect without assistance.”

‘C- I've done with what I can. Hope you're safe, Q’

“That's all I can do on my end. Guess I have to call him up,” she thought

“Sombra? It's Chrysalis. I found an online user that's been terrorizing Canterlot High School. That’s the one. I can't get any further in my search. Let him know for me. You're kidding right? Fuck, that's not supposed to happen. It's been posted to that page. The user is ‘DmondSpoon517’. I recommend their arrest. Farewell, old friend. I wish this would have been under more pleasant circumstances.”

● CURRENT TIME ●

“So, Chaos has a soft side, after all,” a voice said “Captain, Commander.”

“Sergeant. It's nice to see the Queen has a sense of humor,” Discord countered

“Thank you Chrysalis for your help,” Luna replied hugging her

“You're welcome. It's the least I could do. I saw the photo that was uploaded earlier today. Such a shame to see a beautiful young woman do that. I would gladly have became her mother if it meant having a proper family,” Chrysalis said

“While I don't mind a gathering of the Changelings, I wish this was under better circumstances,” Luna said

“Still wearing long sleeves, Captain? Why,” Chrysalis asked

“The two of you wear your brands well. I don't need anyone asking about it,” she replied

Luna removed her jacket and examined the tattoo on her right forearm. A full-body grim reaper sat on a throne with a rifle at it's side and two headstones with a clown head and a crown on them. Discord’s right forearm had a similar design of a harlequin with a rifle and tombstones with a scythe and crown. Chrysalis had herself stylized with a crown on and her friend's marks.

“The Changelings watch their own. I contacted Sombra to inform him of my discovery earlier. He informed me of miss Shimmer’s unfortunate passing,” Chrysalis said

“Speaking of him; how's he doing,” Discord asked

“If you remembered, he became Captain of the anti-terror task force for the police's cyber division,” Chrysalis replied

“Apparently with that book you asked me to retrieve, Sunset did receive a final message. I am sorry to have to do that. I wouldn't have minded being her adopted father,” Discord said sadly

“And I would gladly been her mother. I hope those bastards who created that ‘Anon-a-Miss’ shit get punished. I'd gladly kill them myself,” Chrysalis said

“As would I, but we may not find out anything. I just heard from my sister that the school will be closed the rest of the week and Sunset’s funeral will be held on Friday at school,” Luna added

“Who do you think did it,” Discord asked
“Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and
Scootaloo are probably the culprits. From what I deduce, the girls were at a slumber party when those secrets were revealed. After Sunset spent months rebuilding the entire entrance by hand, why would she return to her old self,” Luna answered

“I hope those spoiled bitches get punished for that post about Sunset’s body,” Discord said

“I wonder when we will face Twilight Sparkle’s wrath,” Luna said

“We're just a phone call away if you need help,” Discord said before they departed
