Octavia was solemnly playing her Cello as tears dripped from her eyes “Stupid Anon-A-Miss! The fact you blamed Sunset only makes it worse.”Octavia remembered back to the start of Sunset’s darkest days.

A year before the Fall Formal in which Twilight bested Sunset several students had her cornered in a dark hallway. The largest of the six, Dumbbell grinned “Hey little brat, how’s your useless drunken whore of a mother doing?”

Octavia growled as she held her Cello her mother made for her “My mother is not like that. She made this cello for me.”

Rover came from behind Dumbbell grinning as he approached the girl “You think you are brave huh. Well guess what, we’re going to show you what happens when you stand up to us.”

Before he could do anything however the voice of a young woman spoke “What do you think your doing?”

They turned around to see Sunset’s cold glare, Hoops grinned as walked towards Sunset “We were just beating up this bitch. She’s the daughter of Illusia Melody, a filthy woman who sleeps around for money and you know what they say the apple never falls far from the tree.” He then put an arm around “Why don’t you join us, this seems right…”

Octavia at the same time as was speaking to Sunset froze (I can’t mach wits with Sunset, she rules this…)

Sunset shrugged as she punched Hoops in the gut dropping him to the ground “I am not one for petty bullying, there is nothing in it for me. In fact you you are demonising her for who her mother was is too much. If I here a word of this again, I will break you.”

The group of five ran away from Sunset, after Sunset made sure Hoops ran away as well she approached Octavia with a calm look “No-one should be demonised for who their parents are, I know I’ve had my own fair share of parent issues. Still I can’t take care of you all the time, you need to stand up for yourself.”

Octavia’s memories flashed forward to over a year later after the Fall Formal, she had taken Sunset’s advice and begun studying martial arts. She walking through the corridors carrying her Cello when she heard someone being slammed into a locker. She walked around the corner to see Sunset pinned to a locker by Dumbbell who was grinning as he lifted a small knife “I’m going to hurt you real bad.”

Before he could say anything Octavia pulled a locker out of the wall and smacked him on the back of his head knocking him out cold. Sunset and Octavia kept close in contact after that. Sunset’s death hurt her deeply but she refused to let it show. Octavia’s thoughts returned to the modern day, she had long come to terms with who her mother was, however the fact that it was now online would ruin any chance of career in the music business. She looked in silence at the rope in the corner, she cried as she tied it into a noose and then hung it from the rafters, she climbed onto a stool and wrapped the makeshift noose around her neck.

With one final sob she kicked the chair from under her legs, ten minutes later Vinyl walked in with her headphones in to practice with her sibling. Her eyes widened as she saw her sister dangling from the ceiling motionless, she then began to cried out in anguish.

Vinyl’s tears began to dissipate as she looked at her sister “I will see you soon.”

She sat in the centre of her turntable set-up. She then turned every setting up until far beyond the safe levels and the machine began to crackle with electricity before exploding sending Vinyl’s body scattering across the room.

It wasn’t long before Sunset and Trixie felt the shaking, the three teleported into the music room to see the room was a blackened mess. Sunset felt tears in her eyes as she saw the hanging body “Octavia…”

Trixie slapped her “Sunset, you and Trixie can fix this. Don’t let your emotions get the better of you.”

Sunset rubbed her cheek “Thanks, I needed that. Now I’ll need your help, bringing someone back when they’re body is not whole will be difficult.”

Trixie smiled “I understand.” Their hands glowed with magic as the Octavia’s body began to grow as her skin and bones changed to metal. Vinyl’s body flew back together and began growing as she begun undergoing similar changes to Octavia.

Octavia groaned as she looked only to see Sunset and Trixie panting, Octavia cast a wary look at Sunset. Vinyl turned and saw Octavia, she wrapped Octavia in a hug “Tavi, don’t ever do that again. We’re family damn it, don’t leave me alone.”

Octavia gave her a hug “I’m so sorry, sis. I should have been more concerned about your feelings.”

Trixie stood up “Sunset and Trixie have brought you two back to life. Now we must leave before we draw any more attention.”

The four of them returned to the bathroom in which Sunset stayed, it empty due to the fact that no-one wanted to use the bathroom with Sunset present. Octavia and Vinyl stumbled as they exited the teleport, Sunset frowned “Trixie, you don’t teleport people without permission.”

Octavia looked at Sunset “Is that you, Sunset?’

Sunset smiled “It is Octavia, I’m glad to see you.”

The two friends embraced as Octavia began to cry “I thought you were dead.”

Sunset sighed “I’m sorry I kept this from you, I was hoping to keep Anon-A-Miss unaware of my survival. It seems that Celestia has not been able to out Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo as Anon-A-Miss, they have been rather quiet lately.”

Trixie blinked “Wait are you telling me that those kids are responsible for this?”

Sunset raised an eyebrow “Think about it, all of you. Who would have a motive to frame me? Not to mention the fact that the first secrets posted where very specific things, Piggly Wiggly was a secret on Applejack’s friends and family knew. Also Sweetie Belle was the only other person at the sleepover where those photos were taken.”

Octavia growled “So those three are the ones who ruined my future!”

Vinyl raised an eyebrow “What do you mean Tavi, how could they have possible ruined you future?”

Sunset’s eyes widened for second before her face turned dark “Those brats! They did that, they are so going to pay when we catch them!”

Octavia took a deep breath, she explained everything to Vinyl and Trixie. Vinyl growled “What, she did that! Why didn’t you tell me?!”

Octavia looked down “I was ashamed of our mum, I didn’t want you to face it as well.”

Vinyl’s face softened “I understand but don’t hide anything like this from me again. We’re family after all.”

Sunset smiled “After this Anon-A-Miss business is over we’ll start a band, Trixie and I play Guitar. You play a Cello and I’m sure Vinyl can make some beats once we replace her turntable.”

Trixie grinned “Yeah, we’ll rock these halls.”

Vinyl grinned “I’m so hyped!” Sunset and Trixie watched in shock as her turntable reappeared in perfect condition right in front of her glowing with light blue magic.

Octavia smiled as her Cello appeared in hands with a flash “I’d say we’re ready.” The two magicians in the room recovered as they summoned their guitars with their magic. Sunset cast a simple soundproofing spell as they began to play their music.
