WARNING: There are major spoilers in the comment section. You have been warned!
We all know a story of Equestria Girls: Holiday Special, aka the Anon-a-Miss comic. Sunset was framed, her friends accused and left her, the school was against her and after Princess Twilight gave Sunset advice about finding your family, she managed to convince her friends that she's innocent, the true culprits were revealed, lessons were learned and everyone is happy at the end.
But was that the whole story?
After weeks of chaos at Canterlot High, which was caused from an infamous online user, "Anon-a-Miss," Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna summoned the true culprits, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo to Principal Celestia's office and demand an explanation on how "Anon-a-Miss" came to be and why they went through with it despite knowing that they will harm everyone in the process, including Sunset Shimmer. Knowing that their Principals deserved an explaination, the CMC began to tell their tale.
This is based off of Equestria Girls: Holiday Special comic, but this story will be told from the CMC's perspective.
This story now have a Tv Tropes page!
you have my attention
Really went through the almonds brainstorming this, huh?
i can't get enough of these stories.
I'm sorry all i hear is "BLAH BLAH BLAH I'M A ROTTEN ANGRY APPLE." From bloom here. Makes me even angier at her!
Geeze really hope you have her and the rest punished with a real punishment not the three months detention crap!
Also furious at what a hypocrite AppleJack turned out to be in the end.
Great. Now we're dealing with these 3 dumbfucks trying to justify why this should have happened. This is why I'm glad Hasbro retconned the load of shit comic out of existance.

...You realize the purpose of this story isn't to show the punishment, but to show the CMC's side? I admit, Apple Bloom is being stubborn to an inane degree, but I have to commend the author for actually attempting to do something like this.
9152508
Not justify, explain their side. Justify would mean they still think they were right, which they know and acknowledge they aren't/never were. There is a difference.
9152571
Hey can always dream, besides so far as i know Apple Bloom being a stubborn hateful fool!
After what she revealed and tried to justified humiliating her sister and the rest of the damage she caused PFFttt, not feeling bit sorry for her.
9152616
You have to admit her reasoning is a bit better this story. Instead of "Applejack is hanging out with Sunset instead of me" it's "Applejack is hanging out with Sunset over me and forgoing a family tradition she started in the process." AJ is forgoing a family tradition.
9152642
no it isn't. It doesn't excuse apple Bloom being a bitch. nor does it make it better reason to totally humiliate her sister at the beginning like that.
This wasn't a accident, she purposely hurt her sister as a START to her plans.
but that how i feel again she could talked to someone somebody, but no she use dit as a excuse to hurt Sunset as well.
Again this is my thoughts alone.
Anyways i still look forward to seeing how Bloom talked the others into this mess.
I like this. Literally every Anon-a-miss story I have seen so far has done nothing, but reimagine the event making it darker and more realistic. This however is a sequel/prequel that expands further on the original event. I find it very refreshing and new.
You have me hooked!
Let the mayhem begin....
9152789
Awesome! I hope you stick around!
9152837
Oh don't worry I will!
My Little Dragon? I thought it was My Little Gerbil, a show exactly like MLP, but with hamsters instead of ponies.
I can totally understand how Apple Bloom feels.
So Luna's missing her special, with her pet possum she kept secretly from her sister, for this debauchery?
Why isn't the guest of honor not here to hear why the CMC did what they did?

Nite Owl II: NNNNNOOOOO!!!!!
9155593
Are you referring to that gerbil reference from my other story? That story and this one does not have the same continuity.
9158672
Wait and see.
This is a brilliant idea. I've got an Anon-Miss story in the works presently.
I'm following this.
Is this a sequel to Was it worth it?, by any chance?
9194144
No. I already explained in the author's note from the Prologue chapter that this story stands on its own.
9194404
Ahh, I see. Sorry.
9194674
It's okay. No harm done.
9194779
If it interests you, the next chapter of my story will be going up shortly.
Why is chapter two so long compared to the rest of the chapters?
Took the words right out of my mouth Luna.
Excuse me?
So...even Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo didn't believe it was Sunset and gave her the benefit of the doubt. Well, at least they used their heads the right way...until they both joined in with Apple Bloom on this whole mess.
Something that will come to bit them all in the ass later.
Ok so, what's the big secret?
9201768
All will be revealed in due time.
This is a refreshingly original take on Anon-A-Miss. Keep it up.
Oh, and Shade? Nice to see you again.

It's sometimes rendered as My Little Human.
It's interesting you raise this as a plot idea, given that in the original film the CMC are nowhere to be seen in the mind control scene.
They briefly appear at about 46-51 seconds in, then they are completely absent throughout this next clip:
But only reappear about 33 to 36 seconds into the last clip here:
And at about 41 seconds here:
That whole sequence adds up to 11 minutes and 56 seconds. Of that, the CMC are onscreen for approximately 9 seconds. What were they doing in the remaining 11 minutes and 47 seconds?
9201501
The tale that this is based on is basically the biggest muck-up in MLP history.
9203277
Totally.
9203279
On the part of the characters and the writers. Having said that, it's an amazing treasure trove for stories.
9203296
It most certainly is!
9203244
Well... they were probably waiting in line to get their photos taken from Photo Finish...
And then danced with their sisters...
As for the rest... no idea, but I figured I can use my own imagination for this fic.
9203333
I'll run the math on that later. I attempt to explain this glaring plot hole away as well in my story 'Railway Adventure' (shameless plugging).
Something seems to be up with my notifications; I was unaware of this comment until I clicked onto the story just now.
9203333
OK then, let's run the math on that scene. Personally I believe those shorts take place before the film's version of the scene, but for the sake of the discussion, I will assume that they take place within the 11 minutes and 56 seconds.
In this above clip, the CMC are on screen for a grand total of 10 seconds.
In the second clip, including background shots, the CMC are visible for 1 minute and 23 seconds. (Incidentally, that short marks Madeleine Peters' first voice role in EqG).
If we add this to the previously established time, the CMC are on screen for 1 minute and 42 seconds. This still leaves 10 minutes and 14 seconds unnacounted for.
Song lyrics, maybe?
Also, first comment!
Wrong on so many levels is what it is!
Apple Bloom!!!
Two wrongs never make a right .
After what she was just told, I don’t blame her .
She was just talking to your friends l, sheesh!
Oh Sweetie Belle l...you were doing so well!
!!!
Ok this is getting good, thou very angry at Bloom, I'm also angry at Rarity, Bloom to how she manipulated Sweetie Bell, and Rarity for how she treated Sweetie Belle.
But it still not right, Sweetie Bell blamed it all on Sunset and used it as a excuse to do this crap.
Can't wait for the next chapter.
I have to admit...part of me does feel for Sweetie.
Rarity didn't have to act the say she did and I am disappointed in Pinkie's obliviousness (granted I'm not a big fan of EG PP anyways...). I dont know if "irony" or "ironic" is the correct word, but it's sad that Sunset's concern for Sweetie is ultimately rewarded with the framing.
