Starlight Glimmer takes Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo to her home. They look so exhausted from the travel they embarked, so Starlight allows the three to sleep in her bed. Starlight Glimmer hugs the trio and decides to kiss them on their foreheads. To give them an insight into what type of mother she'll be. Well, more like Guardian. Scootaloo has her parents but travels around the globe. Sweetie Belle's parents are on vacation. Apple Bloom's family is all around but chose to be with her friends. Either way, Starlight will raise them, love them, and make sure her mission is a success. A town of equality in friendship.
"Alright, girls. Time for you to get some shut-eye. You all had a long day traveling."
"We will, Starlight," Apple Bloom said. She yawns while putting her bag aside.
"Hey, Starlight? Mind if we call you, Starly?" Scootaloo asks.
"Sure," Starlight replied. "I won't mind one bit."
"Thanks, Starly," Sweetie Belle said.
"You're welcome, Sweetie Belle."
The trio climbs into bed. Starlight leaves the room as the girls fall asleep. She trots down the stairs into her office to start plotting for the future. She walks in a circle, openly expressing her thoughts.
"I have three young fillies with me, something in which I never expected. With Scootaloo's parents traveling around the globe, I'll expect them to pick up their child in the next few years or so. With Sweetie Belle's parents on vacation, they would probably be mad with what has happened then go on a search party to recover their daughter. As for Apple Bloom, with her family all around, I'll expect a massive search party. Since my town isn't on the map, they won't be coming here."
Starlight stops walking in a circular motion then sits down on her lounge chair.
"I would say in a few years I'll be having two apprentices. To continue my work of bringing equality in friendship. Right now, it's too soon. I need to know more about the trio. Then I can conduct my plan of action. Until then, I'll be their mother. With the trio not having cutie marks though, it'll be tougher. I can already imagine the trio attempting everything to acquire their cutie marks. I must prevent them from finding their true talents until the time is right."
Starlight gazes at the ceiling in the office, dozing off in many possibilities that can happen and how to approach the matter.
"Only weary travelers and loners come here in search of a new life and friendship. You have to be extremely lucky to find this part of Equestria if I were searching. One in a million chance of finding this location. I need to ask the names of their friends and family in Ponyville; that way, when they show, I'll hide them and take care of business."
Starlight takes a deep breath in satisfaction.
"I can use a nap myself. That way, when the girls and I do wake up, we can discuss more on the matter."
Starlight leaves her office and goes to her couch in the living room. She gets comfy and drifts to sleep.
Hah, good luck trying to teach the CMC of all ponies your equality message, Glimmer. You'll definitely need it, hehe.
That said though, they took an ego beating from the paper incident, they're more receptive now than they'd ever otherwise be.

Big Mac's words linger in their minds and it was all of Ponyville plus Diamond Tiara to write more Gabby Gums. Taking advice and/or learning from Starlight may have a bigger influence on them. So far, she has shown love not hate.

All true, but even with all those points, what Starlight is planning to try to teach them runs counter to what makes the CMC who they are. Still, Starlight is a clever one, so while it might not be easy, she might just have a chance at it under these very specific circumstances.
well, very good, but I would like you to put Applejack and Bigmac to have bruises on his body as punishment, that the princess celestia is deprecated to twilight sparkle and 5 mane, including the town, the people of Ponyville find out who forced the girls to publish the shameful secrets and that the cmc will hate ponyville and his sisters forever

We'll see what happens with them and the town
Starlight's not really planning to use the CMC's in her plans is she?
So does Starlight actually care for them or is she just planning on using them.

That's up to you to decide

What do you think?

That sounds like a MAYBE. But for the time being it's not for a while anyway yes?
Starlight: And why did you do all that?
CMC: We only did it because we were hoping to get our cutie marks.
Starlight: What, in muckraking? Oh, dears no. Cutie marks are nothing but trouble. Just look at the mess you got yourselves into. Are you so desperate to get a cutie mark that you are willing to try anything regardless of whether or not it's something you want to do for the rest of your life? Even to the point of disregarding the feelings of others?
CMC: Well, no, not when you put it that way.
Starlight: Well then, stop trying so hard. In fact, I wouldn't worry about getting your cutie marks at all. You'll be a lot happier in the long run.
