Chapter 4 - Guilt

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"Howdy Rarity, It seems ah'm the second one to arrive."

"Good morning darling. I couldn't quite sleep well last night, woke up at five in the morning, so i figured i should be the first to arrive." Rarity said with bags under her eyes. While she tried her best to hide them with makeup, she beraly slept a wink. She couldn't, not after her interaction with Sunset yesterday. For some reason it kept bothering her.

"What's bothering you?" Applejack said as she put her backpack down and leaning against the statue in front of the school.

"Oh, nothing much really, Sunset dropped by yesterday.

"What? It isn't enough that she called us so many times, now she is harassing us home? I can't believe that gal!" Applejack face began to turn a little red. It was one thing to call, it was another thing to come to their houses. "Ah swear when i get ma hands on her, ah'll will make sure to slap her six feet under!"

"Calm down darling, i appreciate you wanting to defend me, but i can take care of myself."

"What did she want?" AJ practically spat the words from hee mouth.

Rarity grabbed her backpack and reached inside, pulling out a very familiar book.

"Is that Sunset's Journal?" The farm girl said with wide open eyes and confusion in her voice.

"It is. Sunset gave it to me yesterday before she left." Rarity said while putting the journal back into her backpack. Staying silent for a few seconds, the fashionista pondered if she should share what Sunset said to her yesterday or not.
After a few seconds of consideration, she decided against it. She didn't like keeping secrets from her friends, but she also didn't want to say anything that may make the girls give Sunset another chance, only for Sunset to reveal that this was a ploy to devide them again. "For what purpose did she leave this with me i don't know."

Before Applejack could ask more questions, Fluttershy, Rainbow and Pinkie came into view.

"Hey aj, hey Rares, what's up!?" Pinkie pie screamed jumping up and down.

"Calm down Pinkie, you're breaking my eardrums." Rainbow winced as she placed one hand over her right ear, checking if she started bleeding yet.

Fluttershy chuckled for a bit before offering a polite nod to Applejack and Rarity.

"Same old same old, just waiting for you snails" Aj said with a grin looking straight at Rainbow. "Say, did Sunset come by your houses yesterday?"

Rainbow, deciding to not let that insult bother her that much, crossed her arms. "She did. I ignored her. I don't want to have anything to do with her anymore. And to think we were foolish enough to actually believe she changed." She said with a scowl.

"She came by my house as well, but i was at the animal shelter. A neighbor told me she stood in front of my door for 10 minutes." Fluttershy said with a bit of sadness in her voice.

"Me too! She came by my house as well. I wanted to answer, but as soon as Lime and Maud heard her voice, they wanted to to show Sunset how hard are the rocks they collect. So, i had to stop them from going to prison." Pinkie said in a serious tone.

Silence fell after Pinkie spoke, and once again, the girls were reminded why no one messes with Pinkie. Even Sunset before the fall formal had to be careful what she did and how far could she push when it came to the pink girl.

"Anyway." Rarity decided to change the mood of the conversation. "Sunset came to my house as well. Sweetie Belle opened the door, and when i went to check who it was, she was there."

"What did she want?" Rainbow asked in the same way Applejack did.

"Well, she gave me this." Rarity once again took the journal from her backpack and held it in her hands.

"Is this another one of Sunset's skeems? I can't believe the balls on that girl" The athlete said with a frown.

Pinkie poping out of nowhere behind Fluttershy back, causing her to scream in fright, (granted her scream was still of a lower volume),she started laughing. "You silly, Sunset doesn't have balls."

Before anyone could respond, the bell rang and Fluttershy reminded everyone that they should probably go to class. With everyone in agreement, they decided to talk more about this at launch.


"Girls, you won't believe who came over yesterday! It was Sunset!" Sweetie Belle said in a whisper.

"How has she not given up yet? We tarnished her reputation, we destroyed her friendships, how is she still finding the drive to continue?" Scootalo asked with pure annoyance and a bit of awe at Sunset's level of persistence.

"That's just the thing, when i saw her yesterday, she looked defeated. Rarity told me to go back to my room, so i couldn't hear what they were saying. Fortunately, i could still see them. Sunset gave my sister something, talked a little, turned back and left."

"He He, nice, just a little more and maybe she will leave the school." Scootalo said with an evil grin. "That's what she gets for stealing our sisters."

"But is it necessary for us to go any further? I mean we won right?" Asked Sweetie Belle.

"Of course it is necessary! Did you forget how little time you spent with Rarity after Sunset's reformation?" Scootalo got closer to Sweetie, placing her right hand to Sweetie's shoulder. "Your parents and mine are gone most of the time on their business trip, the only one you got is Rarity, and i got Rainbow, and both of them didn't get to spend any time with us over the last months. I say we give it one more push to ensure that Sunset leaves for good."

Sweetie belle stayed silent, she was contemplating if she should go trough with this or just pull out of this plan. While she did enjoy the time she spent with her sister, she didn't enjoy seing Rarity cry over and over. She told herself that this is what must happen, she told herself that Sunset had it coming for how bad she was in the past. Sure, Sunset never touched or messed with the CMC's, but she did mess with her sisters, however, another thought came into her mind at the same time. She thought of Sunset, when she came by yesterday. She looked done, and while Sweetie thought she would enjoy seing the former bitch queen on her knees, the exact opposite happened. She felt quilt. In the past months Sunset genuinely changed, she became a better person. Sweetie didn't feel like a good person after seing the sorry state Sunset was in, far from it, she felt exactly like Sunset was before the Fall formal, and she didn't like it one bit.

Before Sweetie said anything, the bell rang. Finally, Apple Bloom said something since this whole conversation started. "We'll talk more at launch." and without another word Apple Bloom left for her class.

The two girls stood there in confusion. They couldn't believe that Apple Bloom just left like that. Deciding to head to class before Principal Luna saw them, they decided to postpone the conversation for now.


The first three hours of school went by pretty fast, mainly because Apple Bloom didn't pay much attention in class, her mind was focused on something else. She was divided by guilt and jealousy. On one hand she knew that what she has done was wrong, very wrong. She destroyed Sunset's relationships, fractured her friendship with her sister and the others, and made her the most hated person in the school once again. Apple Bloom knew that she was not batter then the old Sunset. On the other hand, her jealousy for Sunset taking her sister away from her was immense, so much so that she brought a girl who just wanted to right her wrong to her knees. Applejack was Apple Bloom's big sister, and in a way, a mother figure. She was too young to remember when her parents died, but in those grave times, Aj and Big Mac took the roles of parents. They tried their best to teach Apple Bloom the values of honesty, the values of hard work and how to be a good person. They showered Apple Bloom with lots of love even when they were grieving, and how did she return the favor? By ripping apart friendships and relationships.

It wasn't just with Sunset and her friends, Over the course of the the life span of the account, the cmc's got messages in private from other people sharing and asking for those secrets of their friends to be posted. Apple Bloom was against it from the beginning, but Scootalo and Sweetie belle were on board, saying it is necessary for them to post the secrets to seem like Sunset was really the one who managed the account, to make it more believable. Only now she realized just how far on the wrong path she has gone. She wanted to tell her sister everything, but she was afraid of what might happen. Seing as she was at a stalemate, she decided to ask another person on what she should do. Of course, asking someone else for advice meant that she had to confess everything, but she knew the truth will come out eventually, it always did. With the decision made, the only thing left was to figure out who to ask.

She couldn't ask her sister, for obvious reasons, Granny smith was a no go as well. While Apple Bloom loved her Granny, she knew Granny Smith wouldn't be much of help. Granny would immediately tell Applejack, Big Mac and principal Celestia and vice-principal Luna. And so, the only option that remained, and the best one, was asking Big Mac for advice. While her big brother didn't say much, he was very wise. With her next goal set, the only thing she had to do is wait for this class to end. Luckily for her, because of her deep thoughts, the hour passed very quickly, and with no time to spare, she went looking for Big Mac.

She got out of the class, and started to look for her brother. The hallway was filled with people, but very little of them actually spoke with eachother, as many of them just glared at other people with hate . Apple Bloom knew that it was because of her that so many people felt betrayed, they cried, and had cut ties with people they once called family. She felt even more guilt, and as she walked, she finally realized that this is not what she wanted. Hurrying over the chemistry class, she found her brother there, chatting with Flash and Swift Wind. Taking in a breath and letting it out slowly, she decided to go for it.

As she approached the group, Big Mac noticed her, and nodded. Apple Bloom summoned every last bit of courage from her body and asked. "Big Mac, can i talk to you for a sec? In private?

Big Mac raised an eyebrow at her little sister's request. It was very rarely that she came to Big Mac for something, and every time she did so, it was because she messed up. But, Big Mac knew that this was his duty as a big brother. "Yeup" Is all he said, getting up from his chair and gesturing Apple Bloom to follow.

After walking outside of the school to a place devoided of people, Apple Bloom began explaining everything, The creation of the account with her friends, the plan to break the friendship between Sunset and her sister, how the account got out of control, her guilt, everything.

Big Mac stood there in silence, listening closely to what Apple Bloom was saying, and even after she finished, he didn’t say a word, just looking at his little sister with disappointment. After some time of carefully thinking how to approach this situation, he let out a sigh, looking straight into Her little sister's eyes. "Ma and Pa would be very disappointed in you. I am as well." he said with no emotion in his voice. Somehow, this was harder for Apple Bloom to hear then if he raised his voice or even hit her. Apple Bloom put his head down, not daring to look into his brother eyes for a second because of her shame. She knew that was will be hard, she knew that there will be consequences for her actions, but it still stung deep to hear his big brother say that. Big Mac, seing Apple Bloom beginning to cry, stood his ground. It was hard for him to be hard on his little sister, but he also knew he had to do it, and so, he continued. "Look lil'sis, what you did was downright idiotic and very stupid." He let out a sigh. "But, ah appreciate coming to me to talk about this. I know why you did it, ah can understand it, but there surely had to be a better way of doing thing. You could have talked with Applejack bout spending more time together, you didn't need to ruin friendships and turn everyone against eachother. We ain't Ma and Pa, but we did try to raise you to the best of our abilities. Seems we fail you."

"What!? No! If someone failed here is me!" Apple Bloom began to cry. Trying her best to sound as coherent as possible she continued. "Ah'm the one who made that account, ah'm the one who let jealousy get to me. It's my fault!

Big Mac inhaled and exhaled slowly. "Ah know Sunset did a lot of bad things, she probably did so many bad thing for her entire lifetime, but she was trying to correct her mistakes, she was trying to atone. Ah can't begin to express just how disappointed ah am in you for not only destroying Sunset relationship with our sister and the others, but also sharing the secrets of others, making this school a ground for distrust, hate and pain. Ah can understand why you did it, with me in my last year of high-school, my job and work around the farm, Applejack's work around the farm, her school projects, homework and on top of that hanging out with Sunset more then you. Ah can understand why you did it, but it won't exempt you from the consequences. After school ends, ah'll take you straight home and have a talk with Applejack as well, after that, we'll go from there. Go tell the other girls that you are backing out of this. After we talk with Applejack, we'll contact their families and tell them what they've been doing, as well as Principal Celestia." Without another word Big Mac started leaving, but turned his head to look at her sister. "What you did was stupid and evil, but we'll get trough this together lil'sis."

Apple Bloom just stood there with tears in her eyes, but she now knew what she had to do. Staying still for a minute to wipe her tears, he left for the cafeteria in search of the other two CMC's.


The class was boring. That was clear to Rarity and Applejack. While history was an interesting class for some people, it was not the case for those two. Rarity herself enjoyed history to some degree, but only when it came to the parts where fashion was involved, unfortunately for her, history is mainly composed of wars, the rise and falls of nations and some political figures she cared nothing about. Applejack on the other hand appreciated history, but only the history of her family. The two girls were lucky enough to stand next to each other, so at least they talked here and there about stuff to pass the time. Their usual talks were mainly about fashion, as Rarity was the one who mainly did the talking and Applejack listened. While the farm girl didn't understand the practicality of dressing fancy with clothes that served no purpose for the day to day life, she did enjoy hearing Rarity talk. She liked how invested and passionate Rarity was about this.

Just as Rarity was about to begin talking about how the fashion in 1900 -1909 revolutionized the fashion industry, and how that period is her favorite one in history, the bell rang. Hearing the bell ring was enough to stop the fashionista's train of thinking about fashion. "Oh, already? I swear it feels like I've been only talking for twenty minutes." Turning her attention back to Applejack. "I'm so very sorry darling, it seems like i have been talking all hour, hope i didn't bother you with my ramblings."

"Nah, don't worry about it" Applejack said as she started getting ready to head to the cafeteria. Rarity in turn did the same, placing the books back and heading out. The trip to the cafeteria was a short one, but in that short amount of time they saw most of the student body not talking, arguing and they also saw Vice-principal Luna stopping a fight between two girls.

"Crazy how that girl knows so many secrets to share." The farm girl said. "Ah can't believe she fooled us all."

Applejack opened the door to the cafeteria, letting Rarity in first, then headed to the food section.

"That Account certainly stirred a lot of trouble, but we will recover, we did so before and we'll do it again." Rarity said as she finished picking out her food. She waited for her friend to do so as well, and after they both had the food, they started looking around.

"Ah see them, seems like we're the last one to arrive." Applejack poited in a direction, and there they were, Fluttershy, Rainbow and Pinkie Pie just sitting and chatting at a table while Pinkie Pie waved excitedly at them. Rarity answer with a wave of her own and started heading to the table.

"Finally, what took you so long?" Rainbow asked in an annoyed tone. "we got here like five minutes ago."

"Just because you're fast don't mean we're fast Rainbow." The farm girl said in a calm voice. She and Rarity sat down.

"Yeah yeah. What you mean to say is that I'm so awesome, i get it." The athlete puffed out her mostly flat chest, in turn, causing Pinkie to chuckle a bit. "Now that you are here." She looked at the fashionista. "We can continue out last conversation. Why did Sunset gave you that journal?"

"I do not know Rainbow, she Just gave me this, and left. I took it with me just in case, but for what purpose it was that she gave it to me, well, you better ask her yourself."

"Say, where is Sunset? Ah haven't seen her today." Applejack looked all around her to see if Sunset was in the cafeteria. She didn't see her anywhere. Not in class, not outside, not in the library. It was certainly weird.

"Why, you miss her already?" Pinkie pie asked while putting her hand in her hair, pulling out a big box of sugar, sprinkled some of that sugar onto her food, then put the box back into her hair, leaving the animal lover who happened to look at her in the moment, flabbergasted.

"Nah, nothing of the sort, it's just that, this is not like her. She has a perfect attendance record, she wouldn't miss school." She said.

"Who cares, I'm just glad she's not here to ruin our day." Before she could say anything else, the girls all heard a "WHAT?" Coming from somewhere. Looking around, they discovered that it was Scootalo who made that noise. After drawing everyone's attention, Scootalo quickly sat down and started talking in a hushed voice, while she was glancing over in the direction of the Rainbooms.

"Oh my, that scared me. I wonder what they are talking about." The animal lover asked. "Hope they are ok."

"You don't worry non, they're probably talking about a movie or sumthing. Y'all know how Sweetie and Scootalo get when they argue about these types of things." Applejack said while taking a bite from her hamburger.

"Anyway, Rares, let's continue out conversation. Did she seem off?" Rainbow asked.

"Off? Whatever do you mean?" Rarity answer, raising an eyebrow.

"You know, manipuliti.... manutilati.... manupu-litav. Agh, you know what I'm trying to say." Rainbow said, trying her best to hide her blush. She hated using big words.

"Manipulative darling, and no, she did not seem so. I must say, that was the most sincere i have seen her." Rarity said.

"She was playing you. Anyways, let's change the subject. I'm sick of talking about her. So, next year is the friendship games. It's going to be so awesome!"


Apple Bloom opened the door to the cafeteria, she knew what she had to do. And she also knew of the consequences that would come, however, in a twisted way, she felt reinvigorated. Apple Bloom, like her big sister, hated lying, and while she knew that her decision to come clean was the most painful one she has ever done, she also knew it was the right one. The talk with his big bro made her realize that. She looked around for her two best friends and her partners in crime, spotting them in the far left side of the cafeteria. Taking a deep breath, she started moving towards what would probably be one of the hardest things she did.

"Hey Apple Bloom, took you long enough. Where have you been?" Scootalo asked crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, we waited fifteen minutes for you to arrive. Did you get lost on the way or something?" Sweetie belle said while she was busy looking in a small pocket mirror.

Apple Bloom took a seat. She knew she had to say it, but she thought it will be easier. She was wrong. "Ah been talking to my brother about things." She said not daring to look her friends in the eyes, instead keeping her head low and looking everywhere else.

"About what?" Said Sweetie as she took a bite of her salad, while still looking at the mirror. "The only time you go talk to your brother about stuff is when you are in...." Sweetie belle stopped, dropped her fork and looked at her friend with wide eyes. "You didn't."

"Ah had to. Sweetie believe me when i say i had to do it." Apple Bloom let out a sigh, then looked Sweetie in the eyes. "I told Big Mac everything."

"WHAT!? Scootalo let out a scream as she got up from her chair, slamming her hands on the table while glaring at Apple Bloom. Quickly realizing that she was drawing attention she sat down. "You did what!?" She said in a whisper, while glancing at the Rainbooms, mainly Rainbow.

Apple Bloom looked at her big sister across the room, biting her lower lip, she tore her gaze away and looked at her friends. "Ah told him everything. ah'm sick and tired of lying, ah'm sick and tired of walking around the school seing all the pain and suffering our blog has caused, and ah am sick of seing my sister cry her eyes out. Ah told My brother everything, and when i get home ah'll tell big sis everything as well."

"You can't do this without consulting us first. Also, you were the one who started the blog. Did you forget why we started this in the first place? To get rid of Sunset, and we almost succeeded! Why did you have to ruin it now!?" Scootalo asked. She looked at Apple Bloom with anger in her eyes. "Sweetie, help me out here."

Sweetie was looking down at her plate, not moving a muscle. After what Apple Bloom has said, she knew that it was only a matter of time before Rarity found out. But in a way, she also felt relieved. Relieved that someone else made the decision for her. At the beginning, Sweetie enjoyed running the blog, she enjoyed seing Sunset cry, trying to win a lost battle, trying to prove that she was not guilty, only to fail. She also enjoyed knowing the secrets of others. But it didn't take long for Sweetie to realize that what she was doing was wrong. At one point she wanted to do exactly what Apple Bloom did. She wanted to tell her sister everything. Sweetie was also sick of seing her sister cry herself to sleep, but she was afraid. Afraid of what her sister might do and say, afraid of what would happen to the friendship with her friends. She knew she was wrong, she wanted to right her wrongs, but she feared the consequences even more. Hearing Apple Bloom say she told Big Mac everything, while it infuriated her, she was also extremely relieved, and thankful that Apple Bloom had the courage to face the consequences head on.

"I... I agree with Apple Bloom. I think this is the right decision." Sweetie looked at Apple Bloom with a reassuring smile, as to let Apple Bloom know that she was beside her till the end, no matter the hardships.

"This can't be happening! We worked so damn hard for this! And now you just suddenly grew a consciousness? We were this close." Scootalo looked at her friends, at the Rainbooms, then back at her friends. "Sweetie, think of how Sunset took your sister away. Think of how lonely you were in those times. How you were home alone for days." She looked at Apple Bloom. "Bloom, think of how many chores you had to do alone before Applejack wasn't there to help you. Ever since your parents died, Applejack look the role of your mother figure, think on how little time you spent with Applejack." she stood up, looking at both her friends. "Are you sure you want to do this?" Scootalo said, nervously anticipating the answer of those two.

After what felt like an eternity to Scootalo, the two girls finally answered. "Yes, yes we do." they said at the same time.

"I see." Is all that Scootalo said. Turning her back on them, she started leaving. Looking back one last time as to see if her friends would come to their senses, she turned back and left for good.


School finished, Applejack was glad that it did. She had work to do on the farm. While she got out of class she meet her brother, Apple Bloom and Sweetie belle waiting just outside the classroom. "Hey Mac, hey girls, what are you doing here?" She asked, and as she took a closer look, everyone looked on edge.

Big Mac looked at the girls, then back at Applejack. "We need to talk, but we'll do it home. Let's go look for Miss Rarity." Without another work he turned and started walking. Applejack looked at the girls as to ask what was happening, but none of them looked at her, instead following Big Mac. Deciding that she will find out later anyway, she decided to not ask any questions untill they got home.

Walking to the Math classroom, they met Rarity. Big Mac told her to come to the Apple farm as they have something to discuss. Rarity looked at Applejack and the girls for some answers, but the girls were keeping their head down and Applejack herself didn't know what was going on as well.

The drive home was an awkward one. Rarity and Applejack tried to get more information from the girls and Big Mac, but none of them said anything. Now, the high-school girls were visibility concerned that something big happened, something bad.

After arriving at the farm, everyone got out of the car, and headed inside the house. The house was empty, as Granny Smith still had some more work to do at the cafeteria. Seing as no one talked, Applejack was the first to say something. "Ok Mac, girls, what in tarnation is going on? None of you spoke on the way home. Did someone die or something?"

Big Mac stayed silent for a few seconds looking at Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. After some more seconds, he finally answered. "They'll tell you." He said before taking a seat down in the kitchen, on a chair next to them.

Now more confused then ever, Applejack and Rarity looked at the two girls who seem to want to be anywhere else but here.

After some more silence, Apple Bloom finally started. "We did it!" She said so fast that the two girls didn't caught it. Realizing that, Apple Bloom said it again in a less hurried tone. "The Blog, Anon-A-Miss, we did it. We were the ones to create the account and post all those secrets and pictures." Apple Bloom said, not daring to look her sister, or anyone for that matter, in the face. She was too ashamed to do it.

The two High-school girls looked at each other, unsure if they have heard correctly. Slowly the gears inside their head turned, and they finally realized what has happened. Confusion turned to Anger as Rarity and Applejack looked at each other. Anger turned into guilt and sadness, and back into Anger. Slowly they felt every emotion at the same time. Applejack being the most level headed of the Rainbooms had grasped the situation faster then her friend.

"So, let me get this straight. You made that blog?" She said, perplexed because she didn't know what to feel. The girls just nodded. "You were the ones who posted my, and my friends secrets for everyone to see, right?" The girls one again noded. "You were also the ones who posted all those secrets of everyone in school?" The girls at this point didn't answer, they just put their heads down and started to cry.

Applejack didn't need their confirmation to know that they did. She looked at Rarity, the girl was mess. She was hyperventilating, crying and stood there like a statue. A statue who looked like she has been trough several wars by the look of her face. She knew why Rarity was like this. It was because of how they treated Sunset, how they abandoned her. Honestly, Applejack wanted to do the same, she wanted nothing more then to break down crying, but she knew she had to stay cool just a little bit more to hear the answers. So, she turned her attention to her sister and her friend once again.

"Why? Why would you do something like this? And how did you get so many secrets and the pictures of my friends?" Applejack asked, trying her best to stay calm. She was failing miserably on that front, but she was trying nonetheless.

Apple Bloom didn't answer, she was too scared and guilty to do so. Sweetie Belle seing how her friend was having trouble even staying up straight, decided to take the mantle. Wiping the tears as best she could and calming herself down as much she could to somehow sound coherent she started. "W-We were jealous of Sunset because she got to spend so much time with you, and we got angry at you for not spending more time with us, so we started this blog to break the friendship you guys and Sunset had in hopes of getting you back."

"But that does not explain how you got your hands on so many secrets and pictures. My nickname and Rainbow's grades i get, you got that from Apple Bloom and Scootalo." Now Applejack was furious again, she couldn't suppress it anymore. "And how did you get the pictures and the secrets of the whole school!?" At this point, Applejack was downright screaming, making the two girls tremble in fright.

Seing how Applejack was losing her temper, and how scared the two girls were, Big Mac decided to step in the conversation. "Easy Applejack. Don't lose your cool. I know how angry you are, but calm down."

"How can i calm down when.. when.. These two and Scootalo are the reason the whole school is a mess?" Applejack was screaming at Big Mac as well.

Big Mac wasn't the eldest in the family for nothing. Seing as he had no success with the first attempt, he decided to try again in a different way, a way he didn't like, but very effective. With a sigh he looked at Applejack with the most cold and disciplinary look he ever made. "I said calm yourself Applejack. Look at the girls, they are frightened because of you." The eldest said.

That was enough for Applejack to stop her aggressive behavior. She looked at the girls, and her big brother was right. Apple Bloom and Sweetie belle were crying their eyes out, holding themselves for comfort while shivering in fright as if they were standing in front of a bear. Managing to get her emotions somewhat in check, she looked at her big brother. "Thanks Big Mac, I was too riled up."

Big mac seing as he managed to calm her sister down, answer with an satisfied nod.

Applejack looked back at the two girls. "Answers, now." She said in a calmer voice.

W-Well, the pictures, we got them from Sunset's phone while you guys were sleeping when she was at the sleepover. As for the secrets of everyone in school, After we made some posts, we started getting messages from people sharing the secrets of their friends. Some of them even asked us to post them. Apple Bloom was against it from the beginning, but me and Scootalo thought that if we share the secrets, it would make the account more believable, as Sunset knows a lot of secrets." Sweetie belle answer.

Rarity finally managed to get her own emotions somewhat in check, enough to start asking questions of her own. "So you have made that account just because you were jealous? Why didn't you say anything?"

"We thought that you were too busy with Sunset to even care about us." Sweetie belle said. "Rarity, you are the only one I've got. Mom and Dad are barely home because of their job. You had to take care of me all by yourself most of the time. You are more then a big sister to me, and when i thought i was going to lose you, i didn't think straight. I didn't want to be alone. The same goes for Apple Bloom and Scootalo." She looked at Applejack and Big Mac now. You two are Basically her parents figure. Big Mac is busy with farm work and his last year of school most of the time, so she got closer to Applejack, but when Applejack started to hang out with Sunset more, Apple Bloom felt left behind."

Hearing Sweetie Belle say that made Applejack and Rarity to think about how little time they spent with their sisters. They were right, Applejack and Rarity didn't do a very good job at being sisters, in fact, they were atrocious at it. They forgot that the two girls are just that. Kids, who need their families to guide them. They felt guilt, guilt for abandoning their sisters for Sunset and guilt for abandoning Sunset when she needed them most.

Both Rarity and Applejack knelt and hugged their sisters. "I'm sorry that we've made you feel that way. From now on we'll make sure to be better." Rarity said. Pulling herself from the hug. "But what you did was still evil and stupid, so there will be consequences for your actions, starting with deleting the blog for good."

Apple Bloom nodded and took out her phone. She went on My Stable to delete the account but then made a confused face. "Um, ah can't get in."

"What do y'mean?" Big Mac asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Hol'up, let me try to log in again." She started trying but failed. Next she tried to change the password, but the E-mail was wrong. Just as she was about to question what was going on, Applejack's and Rarity's phones buzzed. they took out their phone to see that it was a notification from Anon-A-Miss. Quickly opening her phone, Applejack made a mortified face.

Wondering what was going on, the girls and Big Mac got around Applejack to see what made her face like that.

Hey everyone! It's me, Anon-A-Miss, coming to you with the most controversial scoop i have been able to get my hand on. You all know our team leader of all the sports groups in the school, right? Well, i happen to come onto some arcane information about her. That information being that she is gay. Sorry boys, seems like our girl is a Cat person not a Hot Dog's person.


Author's Note

First thing first, i want to address something. I fucked up. In chapter three, remember when i wrote something along the lines of "the fresh air, the green grass." Yeah, i forgot it was supposed to be winter.

Second of all, god damn this chapter was hard to write. The fact that i decided to combine the two chapters into one was hard, making it this long was harder. I had to juggle between characters, i had to write more characters and give some description on how are thing at school. Speaking of Characters, The reason i didn't give Fluttershy and Pinkie more lines is because i didn't know how to write them.

I had to take inspiration from other fics when writing this chapter, as i was stuck most of the time. And to top it all off, My inspiration came at the worst of time, when i was at work or like two in the morning. Meaning each time i had a moment of inspiration, i had to try my best to remember it for when i had time to write.

Now to answer some questions none of you had.
-Someone asked me if i use a writing program. Nope i write on this site, on my phone.
-Some of you are probably wondering how will the rainbooms contact or get a hold of Sunset. The answer is, only Rarity and Applejack will try and do so. I will not answer how, but the main characters of this fic are Rarity, Applejack and Sunset.
-Some of you may be wondering what Scootalo's deal is. Why she posted that about Rainbow. Well, that is because i need the girls to be devided, so i choose Scootalo to be the one to do so, as i didn't know anyone better suited for it.

A few more thing and I'm done. Next chapter is about Sunset. Chapter 6 will be about Rarity and Applejack.

About this chapter, I have to say. I am quite pleased with it, and myself for writing it. It honestly turned out way better then expected. I am also quite pleased to announce that i have spent a considerable amout of time to make sure no grammatical mistakes were made. (There probably still are some, but way fewer then last chapters.) I also think i have done quite a good job at not rushing the chapter. I took my time to undo that mistake.

Oh, and next chapter i have a surprise for all of you. It's not a big one, more like a "Huh, neat". I'll talk more in the Author's note in the next chapter.

Anyway, i am finally done with this chapter, ama reward myself now. Apparently season 4 of Wakfu came out a couple of months ago and i just found out yesterday. Ferb, i know what we're doing today.

Also if you have complaints and criticism, write them in the comments, i may not respond to everyone, but i will take them into account next chapter.
