//------------------------------// // V~Grudge Against Sugar & Indigo // Story: Anon-A-Miss: Another Way // by King_Again //------------------------------// Grudge Against Sugar & Indigo Rainbow Dash sighed as she was finally allowed out of Luna's office. Her parents were called, had a note sent to her final teacher of the day about why she wasn't in class, and was giving a very serious warning about attacking innocent students. When she tried to convince Luna she was attacking Anon-A-Miss for the good of the others, Luna frowned and growled at her saying she had no physical proof of Sunset being Anon-A-Miss expect for accusations. They didn't truly know if Sunset had the Anon-A-Miss page open on her Mystable account at the time, as well as logged in on the Anon-A-Miss account. When she told her friends, they all thought for a moment. They didn't have physical proof but shouldn't Sunset's pass be enough to convince the principals Sunset was Anon-A-Miss? Apparently not considering how both Luna and Celestia had seen Sunset change her ways after the Battle of the Bands. "It fucking sucks," Rainbow huffed as she slide down into her spot at AJ's house. "I mean, who else could be behind it anyways? Sunset is the damn user and everyone knows this." "But Vice Principal Luna is right," Fluttershy spoke up. "We don't have physical proof expect for an account, and they could all look on Sunset's account and see if we're right or not." "Ah agree with Fluttershy," Applejack nodded. Rarity rose an eyebrow as she searched Mystable. "I do hate to break this up, but look!" She showed her friends her phone and she was opened to a Shadowbolt she followed, Fleur De Lis. There was another account Fleur followed; Indigo Zap, Lemon Zest, Sour Sweet, Sunny Flare, Sugarcoat, and... Sunset. "Why are you showing us who she follows?" Pinkie asked. "We all know the Shadowbolts follow each other!" "Yes, but, they're all following Sunset now," Rarity explained, "--and Sunset isn't a Shadowbolt at all!" Rainbow blinked, confused. "So what? They're probably following her so they dig info up on us. What about it, Rarity? It's what the Shadowbolts do when they have to beat another school to the dust." "Darling, there's this picture of Sunset with Sugarcoat, and a caption saying 'Welcome new Shadowbolt.'" Rarity finished, clicking on the new posted picture. It was indeed of Sunset and Sugarcoat. The two girls looking happily at each other, and Rainbow's jaw dropped when she saw it was Indigo Zap who posted the picture. All the following comments praising the new Shadowbolt for getting out of an abusive Canterlot High, and how Principal Cinch made a wonderful choice in allowing the girl to join them. All of them made Rainbow's blood boil and she sighed heavily before running her hand through her hair. "Great... Indigo strikes again," She mumbled. Fluttershy gazed at her best friend, "What do you hate about Indigo Zap anyways? It sounds like you have a lot of hate towards her and Sugarcoat." "Really wanna know?" "Yes!" All of them cried, sick of hearing Rainbow bitch about the two Shadowbolts. Rainbow took a moment to take a deep breath before going into her story about the three of them. How she and Indigo met in Elementary, later following into Middle School, they had met Sugarcoat, whom Indigo took a liking to right away. Somewhere in grade seven, Indigo had confessed she liked Sugarcoat and the two dated for a year or so before agreeing the worked better as friends. Nothing too serious until the last month of grade eight when they all had to choose a high school. At first, Rainbow had thought they were going to the same one; Canterlot High. Indigo had even promised they would go to the same high school, including Sugarcoat. But that wasn't the case. Both girls had lied from what Rainbow had heard from her fellow classmates. Both of them had applied to Crystal Prep Academy for a challenge and to get away from Rainbow's apparent ego. "Apparent?" Applejack asked, trying to hide her laughter. "Sugarcube, there is no 'apparent'. You do have an ego. A massive one at that, but we're all still here because we know ya don't mean those things you say when yer mad." "Yeah, well, they were fed up with it," Rainbow mumbled. "They always lied to me when they said they would come to my soccer games. Well, mine and Indigo's. The only reason why Sugarcoat even showed up was because at the time, she was coming to support Indigo as a friend. Not me." "So, your friendship with them as a lie?" Fluttershy shyly asked. "Yup." Applejack frowned and crossed her arms. "Is that why ya hate 'em so?" "Basically yeah!" Rainbow nodded. "I mean, what would you do when you found out your apparent best friend just put up with you until the moment they saw an escape route? How would you react when they finally told you the truth on the day you got to know what place you're going to?" "The same way, ah guess," Applejack shrugged. "But, sugarcube, ya were just kids. Surely ya should've forgotten all about that, right?" "Never left my mind since." Rarity sighed. "My, are you feeling now? We found out that apparently the real reason why Sunset was cleaning out her locker so early was because she was getting ready to leave Canterlot High?" "Mad, glad... fuck! I dunno!" Rainbow shouted, standing up. "I'm mad that they get someone I care-cared about! I'm happy the get the bitch! But... I'm not at the same time. Shit! How am I supposed to feel? Tell me, Rarity, how!? Pinkie!? Any idea how the fuck I'm supposed to feel about this?" "RD," Applejack stated, "Put a comment on the photo." "What? Are you mad!?" Rainbow said, jaw dropping. AJ shook her head. "Text 'em. Text Indigo and Sugarcoat. Right now, RD. Get it all out." Rainbow blinked, not moving an inch towards her phone in her pocket. "Now, ya won't feel better if ya don't get it all out." "I don't want to talk with them. We're done. Our friendship isn't anymore." replied Rainbow. "Just like my friendship with the bitch." "Who's now a Shadowbolt," reminded Pinkie Pie. "Who's now going to be up against up in the Friendship Games! Who's now going to be on the winning team! Who's going to get all glory while we mop about being the losers once more! Anyways, she's always going to win no matter what." "And, because she's moved schools, Crystal Prep will be put into better light," Fluttershy said. "Principal Cinch could use this to her advantage." Rainbow groaned loudly and rubbed her temples, mumbling about how they one upped them once more. That wasn't the case on Rarity's mind at the moment as she saw another Anon-A-Miss post, but when she checked Sunset's account, another post was made at the same time but it only showed the Shadowbolts. Indigo Zap, Lemon Zest, Sour Sweet, Sunny Flare, and of course Sugarcoat. They were out at the mall, having a good time while the Anon-A-Miss post showed two Canterlot High students. Her jaw nearly dropped but didn't. A single thought crossed her mind, and it made her stomach turn in realization. She's not Anon-A-Miss! But who would believe her? No one because they all thought she was Anon-A-Miss. Good god, what kind of a friend was she when she couldn't see how Sunset was telling the truth the whole time? "Rarity?" AJ's voice broke her thoughts. "Ya okay, sugarcube?" "Ahem, yes, I am," Rarity nodded, putting her phone away. "Just simply looking at a post about fashion." "Of course," AJ rolled her eyes with a smile. "Ah think ah know what to get ya now." Rarity whacked her arm with a nervous laugh which AJ didn't seem to notice, "Oh hush, now. I'll love whatever you get me." But she would love to apologize to Sunset for thinking it was her the most.
