Enter the Dragon
The snows were falling ever so lightly upon the city of Canterlot, as all the people were rushing to and fro to be done with their Christmas shoppings, as well as exchanging some heartfelt, "Merry Christmas!" and "Happy New Year!"
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, a little dog finds himself lost in the crowd, as he searched for the person he was presenting his gift to.
"Where did Twilight say Sunset's building was?" Spike asked himself, looking at all the buildings in confusion, while avoiding the steps from all the people around him. "Whoa! Watch it there mister! Hey, I'm walking here!" He protested in muffles, stilling carrying the present in his mouth.
But it was no use. Nobody paid any attention to the little dragon turned dog, "Oh, why did I have to be a dog?" He asked himself in frustration. "If only I had my wings, I can just get a bird's eye view and find Sunset much quicker!" Spike turned his attention to the right, just to spot Sugarcube Corner. To further his luck, he finds the Rainbooms, with Twilight and Wallflower Blush. "Now we're getting somewhere!" He smiled and was on his way.
At Sugarcube Corner, the Rainbooms were all drinking themselves cups of hot chocolate. Unfortunately, the hot, yet sweet delicacy of a drink was still not enough to take away the sorrow they all felt earlier, following their confrontation with Sunset Shimmer.
"Man, I'm such an idiot!" Rainbow grumbled.
"Oh come on, Rainbow. It's not just you, we're all to blame here," Applejack muttered, as she sighed, "But to be fair, it's all on me. I'm the one who started the idea of having Sunset Shimmer over for some slumber parties at our places. I'm the one who was supposed to be there for her, when she needed us most!" The strong girl ranted, raising her voice slightly. "I told her she was family, and yet I failed to act like one for her during that time of need when she was-"
"We get it, AJ," Rainbow interrupted. "But I should've known better. I should've known that Sunset wasn't behind all that from the start. I can't call myself a loyal friend to her then. And now, I'll never call myself a loyal friend for how stupid I was."
"Yep, you're stupid alright," Pinkie Pie agreed. "Just like how stupid you were on your 2nd Period Science essay on 'How Buoyancy Works!'"
"PINKIE PIE!!" The Rainbooms, except Rainbow, berated the pink girl.
Realizing what she just said, Pinkie blushed a shameful shade of red as she stammered, "Oops! I-I-I-That came out wrong! I mean-"
"No, it's alright, Pinkie," Rainbow shook her head. "You're right," The girl puts a hand over her tearful eyes as she hissed, "I'm such an idiot."
Pinkie Pie wrapped an arm around the rainbow haired girl, with her hair deflating slightly, "If you're an idiot, Dashie. Then I'm idiot to for not taking the situation so seriously back then."
"But I didn't want to believe Sunset Shimmer was Anon-a-miss back then, and yet I did!" Rainbow teared up. "Some loyalty I showed."
"Some loyalty we showed Rainbow Dash," Applejack frowned. "You were right back then. She was our friend. More than that-she was family."
"I even said that family can even make mistakes," Fluttershy whimpered tearfully.
"And then I asked if we can even forgive them though," Rainbow added.
"What a pity." A new voice sounded, to which the Rainbooms looked up to see Twilight standing by their table, with Wallflower Blush.
"You failed to find it in your heart to forgive Sunset Shimmer," Twilight began bitterly. "Even though the clues all pointed to her from the start, and even though you didn't want to believe she was Anon-a-miss then. And yet, once the truth revealed itself, you were so quick to forgive your sisters in a heartbeat. If it was so easy for you to forgive you family then, why couldn't you do the same for Sunset?"
"Darling, you have to understand," Rarity tried to reason. "It was hard for us back then. I don't know-"
"Just answer the question already!" Twilight exclaimed with tears in her eyes. "Just why?! Were you lying when you said Sunset was family?"
"Of course not!" Applejack replied. "We weren't lying! You would know well I'd never tell a lie."
"Then why don't you answer, Applejack! Why couldn't you do the same for Sunset, like you did with Apple Bloom?!"
"I honestly don't know! Believe me, I don't even have the answer!"
Twilight was silent for a moment, before she began, "You know, like Sunset Shimmer before, I never knew the first thing about friendship either. Sure, I may be held in high regards by Abacus Cinch when she was principal, and I may have once been part of the Shadowbolts for Crystal Prep, but even then I was all alone."
"We get it, Sugarcube," Applejack replied softly. "You were alone back then."
"....And yet, when I transferred to your school, I was welcomed by open arms as if I were family. Your family, correct?" The Rainbooms nodded. "And yet, when Wallflower Blush used the Memory Stone to make you forget about Sunset Shimmer, or how I became Midnight Sparkle, I take it then you don't remember how we even met in the first place," The Rainbooms looked at Wallflower Blush to see her nodding her head lightly, while looking shamefully away. "That's ironic, isn't it? How without Sunset Shimmer, then we'd never known each other to begin with. And yet, back then, all you remembered was that I was your friend. Well now that I think about it, it's kind of strange that you would quickly welcome a stranger like that, isn't it?"
"Why are you pinning that on us?" Rainbow inquired. "You're a victim, just like we were!"
"Don't try and change the subject, Rainbow Dash!" Twilight berated the athlete.
"Me?! I thought you were changing the subject when you started talking about the Memory Stone incident from Anon-a-miss!"
"Well to me, I think see a connection between these two events! For so long I believed you all when you said we're all family, and yet, we weren't there for Sunset or Wallflower when they needed us! Tell me, why?"
"Again, we don't know!" Applejack answered. "Look, can we just forget about this and-"
"There you go again!" Wallflower Blush shouted angrily.
"What?" The country girl and her fellow Rainbooms looked at the angry girl in shock.
"Forgetting so many important details, like always!" Wallflower Blush clarified. "You know, be ignored and left on the sidelines is one thing. But forgetting the reasons, the answers, or even the feelings, that's another! And I think I get it now. Your forgot Sunset was family, because you want to forget Sunset was family, just like how you want to forget any of this now! Is that right?"
The girls were taken aback, "Well, when you put it that way," Rainbow quickly elbowed Pinkie in the rib, who stammered, "Uh-uh-I-I-I mean, no! Of course not!"
"It's not like that!" Rainbow tried to reason, along with the rest of the Rainbooms. But Wallflower refuses to listen.
"Well. At least I remember one thing from you," She began with the pipes breaking. "You can say what you want, or you can forget what you want to forget. But I don't need to hear it. And I don't even need to remember it as well!" With that, Wallflower Blush took her leave, with Twilight and the Rainbooms following her with shocked gaze.
Fluttershy's lips quivered, "D-Do you think she's right?" She whimpered. "Did we really forget, because we wanted to?"
"The way she said," Twilight began. "I think maybe she's right."
"Now hold on! We-" Applejack was quickly silenced when Twilight raised her hand up to stop her.
"I can't believe you could just forget like that," Twilight frowned, before she looked sadly and shamefully away. "Which reminds me. I should probably go now."
"Where are you going?" Pinkie asked.
"With luck....Sunset," Twilight replied. "She needs me."
"Well, if you find her, can you tell us where she is? Or if she's doing alright?" Rainbow asked.
"Why don't you try and find her yourself?" With that, Twilight turned her back on the Rainbooms and disappeared behind the door, and out into the snow.
Little did the girls know, their whole talk had been overheard by a common best friend they all share.
Meanwhile, Sunset Shimmer was out walking through the park, which was decorated with flashing lights, giant balloons of iconic Christmas characters, from Santa Clause to the Grinch, and other symbols of her least favorite holiday in the human world. The girl eventually found an empty bench to set herself down and huddled to herself close for warmth and comfort, "Why? Why does this have to happen to me?" She asked herself. "What more must I do? How many more mistakes must I have to atone for? Why is it whenever I try to do the right thing, something always comes up and ruins everything? I just wanted to be loved. Is that too much to ask?”
Tears started to flow as the pipe breaks, “Maybe I’m just cursed to be this way,” Sunset sobbed. “No matter how hard I try, no matter where I go, my past will always come back,” The girl covered her watery eyes as she wept, “It will never be forgotten. I’ll never live it down. I have no one. No family...no friends...I can’t count on anybody.”
As the girl wept in the snow, in the background, the song of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" can be heard playing. While many people would find the song catchy, joyful, and uplifting, to Sunset, it sounded too much of a taunt to her very existence. Unable to bear the joyful Christmas caroling that made her ears and heart ache with every lyrics any longer, Sunset took out a pair of headphones and plugged them into her ears, got out her phone to select a song for her to listen.
"Oh dear Sunset," A sad, quiet voice whispered in her head. "I told you not to give into friendship so quickly. It was too good to be true. Things were so much simpler back then, before Anon-a-miss happened. Before Wallflower Blush reminded us of our past. Before we dared to hope."
Sunset shook her head and sighed again, "I thought AJ really meant it all, when she said I was....her friend," Sunset puts a hand over her eyes as she took a few sharp breathings, "And yet, when Anon-a-miss happened the second time, she and the Rainbooms....." Sunset didn't have to finish her rant, as she breathed a long deep sigh and felt the ice in her heart melting away.
SYML - Where's my love? (Piano and viola)
"The song helps?"
"This song is all I have to help me forget," Sunset mentally answered.
"Don't worry Sunset," The voice replied. "Just let it go. You don't need those girls anymore. They won't trouble you no more, just as you never caused anymore trouble since. Forget the past. Forget the friendship. Forget the so-called family, when you have yourself. Just as you have been, just as you always will be on this sad holiday."
Sunset sighed as she felt a tear flowing from her eyes, "It's just so hard to believe it was last Christmas when we....when I thought we're finally past it all. When I thought the nightmares would finally come to an end."
Sunset continued to listen to the song, feeling her sadness poured out. The song has yet to come to the end, when she felt something, or someone, tapping one of her legs.
“Sunset?” A familiar voice called out. "Sunset!"
Snapping back to reality, Sunset opened her eyes and was initially puzzled to see no one standing before her, "Who-who's there?" She asked.
"Down here," Sunset looked down and was greeted by Spike, with his gift in his mouth.
"Oh, hey Spike," Sunset sighed.
Spike was aghast, "Hey Spike?" He asked, setting the box down. "I came all the way out here from Equestria, and all I get was a 'hey, Spike?' Not even a 'hey, Spike. Merry Christmas,' as you would say in this world?"
Sunset's eyes widened upon realization, "Wait, SPIKE?!!" She exclaimed, "As in Twilight's dragon assistant, Spike?"
"Well, yeah," The dragon-turned-dog titled his head in confusion. "Who else?"
"Oh, sorry Spike," Sunset blushed, chuckling in embarrassment. "I guess mistook you for someone else. But, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be back in Equestria, spending Hearth's Warming Eve, with Twilight? Princess Twilight, I mean?"
"Well, normally I would be," The dragon turned dog answered, before he nudged the present towards her, "But I came to bring this present to you."
"Oh, thanks Spike," Sunset smiled as she took the gift wrapped present from the dog. The fiery girl held the mysterious package up for closer observations. Feeling a pair of eyes looking at her, she looked down to see Spike was still there, sitting and gazing her like the puppy he was, "Uh, Spike? You can go now."
"Go where?" Spike asked.
Sunset was confused, "Um, the Friendship Castle? With Twilight?" She answered slowly.
"Oh, there. Nah!" Spike shook his head.
Now Sunset was really confused, "What? Why not?"
"Well, truth to be told, I was left out again," Spike frowned.
"Left out? Of what?"
"Eh, Twilight and the girls were having a party at Sweet Apple Acres," The dog shrugged. "They even included Starlight Glimmer, again. But they left me out."
"Oh...sorry I asked," Sunset frowned, as she got down to comfort the dog, with a scratch behind his ears.
"It's okay. I kinda got used to that by now," Spike frowned, before he lightens up the mood, "Enough about me. You looked as if you could use some company. So I guess I'll just hang with you for awhile, Sunset."
Though touched by the dog's offer, Sunset shook her head, "That's sweet of you, Spike. But I'd like to be alone right now. Thanks for the present though."
"That's okay," With a kick of his hind legs, Spike leapt up into the seat of the bench as he sat down besides Sunset. "I can be alone with you!" The dog did a double take, upon realizing what he just said. "Wait, that sounded better in my head."
The fiery girl couldn't help but chuckle to herself in amusement at the little dog's antic, "You're funny, Spike. But answer's still no."
"Oh come on. As Pinkie and Twilight would say, nobody should be alone on Hearth's Warming Eve...or in this case, Christmas." Sunset was about to say something, but was interrupted by Spike, "And I'm alone like you are right now. So, technically speaking, you can keep me company then," The dog said with a happy wag of his tail.
Sunset tried to protest, but finds herself unable to reject the little dragon dog's logic, "Well, since you put it that way. What's the worst thing that could happen? I mean, it's just you right?"
"Great!" Spike smiled as he happily wags his tail and leapt up to Sunset's face to lick her with his dog tongue. Spike quickly took a step back, "Oh, sorry Sunset. Don't know what came over me."
But rather than scowling in anger, or disgust, Sunset couldn't help but giggle at the little puppy's antic, "It's okay, Spike. I actually liked that to be honest."
Spike chuckled nervously, before he looked at all the Christmas decorations around them, "Wow. All these decorations are very beautiful, huh?" He asked.
"Yeah, I guess they are," The fiery girl frowned, still finding the decorations in questions too unbearable to look.
"They kinda remind me of the ones we have back in Equestria," The little dog turned his attention to something that made his mouths water, "Ooh! A candy cane!" With that, the little dog ran towards what he thought was a giant version of the sugar sweet.
"Uh, Spike, wait! That's not a real-Oh!" Sunset cringed, when Spike licked his tongue on the frozen metal pole and instantly got stuck.
"Hey!" Spike exclaimed, with his tongue stuck out of his mouth. "I'm stuck! I'm stuck!"
Sunset Shimmer couldn't help but laugh as she walked over, "Hang on, Spike. I'll help you out."
"Oh, my tongue," Spike moaned, as he was being carried away by Sunset Shimmer, through the city. "I'm never gonna eat candy canes in this world....ever."
"I should've warned you, that wasn't a real candy cane, Spike," Sunset chuckled lightly. "That and I probably should've warned about sticking your tongue on a frozen piece of metal."
"Now you tell me." He grumbled.
"Oh, come on, Spike. Just be glad that I knew what to do in that kind of situation. Otherwise, you would've been stuck out in the snow, for up until springtime. And we don't have Winter Wrap-Up here."
"Yeah, yeah. But enough about the whole metals and tongue thing. Let's go to Sugarcube Corner! I'm hungry!"
At the mention of the said cafe, Sunset immediately froze, "Actually, it's Sugarcube Cafe in this world, Spike," Sunset corrected the dog, before she turned. "And how about we try someplace else for lunch?"
"What else is there?" Spike asked. "Sugarcube Corner-I mean, cafe is all I can think about! I still remember the bagels they served there, the last time I was here with Twilight. They're pretty good!"
"Yeah, well I know of another place that serves even better foods than bagels," Sunset excused.
Later, the two friends were at the Canterlot Mall, where they both enjoyed themselves a plate of pizza. Cheese pizza to be precise.
"Hmmm!" Spike smiled, as he enjoyed his slice. "Wow, where've you been all my life?!" He asked the pizza, wolfing it down.
Sunset chuckled while enjoying to herself her own slice of the pizza pie, "I told you, you would like it," She smiled, before her eyes widened to see the Rainbooms walking down the hall. "Oh no!" She moaned, dashing to hide behind a large trash bin in the area.
"What? Is this 'mall security' coming?" Spike asked, about to turn his head around, but was suddenly snatched away by Sunset.
"Shhhhhh!" She hushed the dog. Sunset huddled to herself behind the bin, with Spike in her arms. The two stayed quiet as the Rainbooms walked past them and disappeared out of sight.
"Sunset?" Spike began. "What's going on? Why are you hiding from them? Aren't you girls supposed to be friends?"
"You can drop the act, Spike," Sunset sighed. "I know, you know about Anon-a-miss."
"What?! How did-Uh," Spike tried to compose himself as he struggles to feign his obliviousness, "What are you talking about? What's an Anon-a-miss?" Of course, Sunset was clearly not buying it, as she raised an eyebrow at him and scowled. "Okay, you got me," He sighed in defeat. "But how did you know?"
"With this," Sunset pointed to her necklace, containing her geode and its power. "Whenever I touch someone, I'm able to read their thoughts and memories. Including yours, when I was petting you back in the park."
"Oh! So you mean....I'm busted," Spike whimpered, as Sunset nodded her head. Knowing there's no point in talking his way out now, Spike began truthfully, "Alright, I admit it. I was out looking for you to deliver your present when I overheard the Rainbooms talking about this Anon-a-miss thing, and you know the rest by now. But I wasn't lying when I wanted to spend some times with you for a good time."
"I know, Spike," Sunset replied. "I know. But still...."
"Twilight would've wanted it." He justified. "That, and I would want to keep you company."
"Even if you're a victim to Anon-a-miss, and everyone are all pointing their fingers towards me? Spike, you weren't even there. You don't know what it's like!"
"Then tell me more about this 'Anon-a-miss' thing. What happened? How did it started? And why?"
"I....I don't know. I'd rather not relive through that horrible nightmare again."
"Come on, Sunset. I want to help you. But I can't help you as a friend, or an assistant, if you won't tell me." Again, Sunset was reluctant, "I'm here for you," Spike reassured, as he looked into her eyes. Though doubtful at first, Sunset complied as she relates the whole story to the dog.
"And that's how it happened," Sunset frowned. "I should've known they would be so quick to forget I was their friend like that, when it all happened. Though I don't blame 'em. Who could ever forget the demon I was? Even right now, I can tell, there will always be someone who finds it easier to remember me as the villain, than it is to forget I've changed and moved on from that," The fiery girl frowned, recalling the drama she went through, courtesy of Wallflower Blush.
Spike was, of course, saddened by her story, "Sunset, I...."
"Just go, Spike," Sunset stood up, taking her leave. "You've done enough for me, for today."
"But Sunset..."
"Tell Twilight I said, 'Happy Hearth's Warming Eve,'" Spike watched walking away. He happened to catch a small tear drop falling from her eyes, glistening in the light, which she tried to hide.
Spike ran forward to catch up to Sunset. "Sunset, hold on!"
"Spike. Please, don't make this harder for me than it has to be," The girl muttered.
"And I don't want you to be any lonelier than I was," Spike countered.
"How can you say you're alone? You've got your own family. You've got Twilight and her friends. Don't you?"
"Yeah, sometimes I do, and sometimes I don't." The dog shrugged. "But still, I was left out, just like you were. I don't want that to happen to you again. So please, just let me help you. Isn't that what family was all about?"
"Help?" Sunset cringed at the mention of family, as she sighed, "Applejack and Rainbow Dash once considered me family as well. But then when Anon-a-miss happened, they were so quick to turn a blind eye on me and left me out in the cold, as if I was never their friend! Like they just instantly forgot how I've changed, and how I helped in their fight to defeat the Dazzlings! Some help they were!" She hissed angrily.
"I know." The little dragon turned dog agreed. "That was wrong of them, just as much as-"
Looking at the purple dog, Sunset began, "Spike, I need you to be honest. Would you do the same thing to me, if your most embarrassing secret was revealed for the world to see? And would you, like everyone, be so quick to accuse me of being the suspect?"
Spike was silent, unsure of how to answer that question. Scratching his head a few times, he lets out a deep breath and answered, "I'll admit. I'd be very angry if that happened. If not, greatly humiliated. And if you were classed as the prime suspect, then....maybe?"
"Spike, I asked you to be honest. I won't accept a 'maybe.'"
"I know. Believe me, I'm really being honest with you," Spike scratched his ear, searching his thoughts before he spoke, "But again, I don't know what would happen or how it could be handled. And I guess it's kinda obvious, but it's much easier to just assume the accused as the prime suspect," Sunset, of course, was not too pleased with the young dragon's answer.
"That's what I'm afraid of," She frowned.
"But Twilight obviously trusts you," Spike said, to which Sunset looked at him with peaked interest. "And she did helped you to clear your name, when no one else would. She's really smart after all," Sunset nodded in agreement as Spike continued, "So if she can trust you, then I can too. I would've even helped you more than Twilight would!"
"So it's only if Twilight puts her faith in me that you would trust me then?" Sunset asked in an even displeased tone.
The young dragon turned dog was confused, "Isn't it a good thing?" Sunset shook her head as she took her leave. "Sunset, wait!" Spike barked, quickly running after the fiery girl. "How can having faith in Twilight not be a good thing?"
"The way I see it, it's only possible to clear my name from a crime I didn't commit, if Twilight was around to help," Sunset sighed. "But what happens when Twilight's not around and I'm in trouble again? Would you still have faith in me?" Stumped, Spike remained silent, unsure of what to answer, "That's what I thought."
"No, it's not what you think, Sunset!" Spike quickly spoke. "It's complicated, okay?"
"Life is always complicated, just as family is nothing but trouble!" Sunset frowned, "Admit it, Spike. You understand how it is, better than anyone! You're right about how lonely you're really are! Twilight and her friends have left you out on so many momentous friendship activities, and this one isn't any different!"
"Hey, leave them out of this!" Spike barked.
"No, actually, I'd like to ask you another important question, Spike," Sunset began. "This Starlight Glimmer, she seems to be getting along really well with Twilight and her friends. In fact, it seems to me she's replacing you."
Spike could hardly believe his ears, "What?! No, that's not true!" Spike whimpered in fright. "She can't! She wouldn't. I'm Twilight's number one assistant. Her best friend!"
"Number one assistant?" The fiery girl began in an angry tone. "Or what if you've become her number two assistant, what would you do then? Would you go out of your way to conduct a sabotage on the friendships between Twilight and Starlight Glimmer?"
"What?! No, of course not! Starlight's my friend too!"
"Oh really? What about the time when Owlowiscious came into Twilight's life and you felt threatened by him, because you were afraid he would replace you? Why is Starlight Glimmer so much different from Owlowiscious?"
"That happened a long time ago. We've moved on from that. I've moved on from that. I know better than that!"
"And yet, here you are, still left out. Just like the CMCs, before they decided to frame me for a crime I didn't do, and I was left out in the cold. And why did they do it? Because they were threatened I was replacing them in their families." Sunset said bitterly, not noticing the sadness taking over Spike, "It's only a matter of time before you decide to do the same to Starlight."
"You're one to talk," Spike frowned, "You're so big on how we wouldn't judge others, based on their pasts. And here you are doing the same thing to me."
"I was just making a point, Spike."
"Oh yeah? Well, what about your family, Sunset?" Spike countered. "Where are they now? Did you get replaced by them?"
Finally driven to her point, Sunset's eyes snapped wide as a tear threatened to drip down her cheek. Frustrated for a comeback, Sunset snarled at Spike, "You know what, Spike? Why don't you just go away!" She spatted. "I don't need this. I don't need you, just like your friends don't need you! In fact, I don't need anybody's sympathy for this holiday! I don't owe Equestria or this world anything!"
Letting her anger take full control, Sunset ranted, "Every time I trusted somebody and thought things were finally going right, I get burned! You, Twilight, my parents, Anon-a-miss, Wallflower Blush, the Rainbooms, EVERYBODY!! So you know what? I say FORGET about friendship, or family! What good are they if they'll never forget my past, and give me peace! There's just no point in me trying to be good anymore!"
Spike, if not, everyone else were all taken aback at the outburst from the fiery girl. Not to mention the force of the pent up rage she kept inside of her.
Slowly replaying Sunset's words in his head, Spike finally whimpered some tears, "At least I'm willing to keep my family," Sunset was taken aback by the shock from Spike's haunting whimper. "Do you have any idea what it's like for me? To be alone, without knowing what became of my family, or why I was alone to begin with? To be raised in a society where everyone treated me differently, because to them, I'm considered an outcast, or a foreigner? It was awful. Back then, the only ones who even considered me a family were Twilight, her family, and Princess Celestia!"
"Spike..."
"Maybe I was threatened to being replaced, maybe because they're my family. My only family! I have nowhere else to go! Not the Dragon Lands, not Canterlot, and probably not the Crystal Empire, because I'll never find Twilight in any of them! While you...you're just so easy to give up on your family, because you're too afraid to face your past again. I've made mistakes too, you know. And forever after, they'll always haunt me, but I never quit on Twilight or our friends because of them! You've seen my past. I'm sure you also got a glimpse of me as a rampaging out of control greedy dragon! But did I thought about running away from my friends because of that?"
"Spike...I-"
"Even now, with Starlight as our friend, and with Twilight and the girls including her more than they did with me, I still care because we're still family."
"I know. I'm-"
"And I thought I made the right choice when I decided to stay with you for awhile, because you needed some company. Maybe because when I looked at you, I thought I saw myself," Sunset gasped in further shock as she looked at the saddened dog, "But maybe you're right. You're better alone!" With a tear flowing from his eyes, Spike looked away, "Because I may be wrong. I'm nothing like you!" With that, Spike took his leave, dashing towards the nearest exit and into the snow.
"Spike, wait I-" Sunset frantically called out, as she chased after the little dog, forcing her way through the crowds. "Spike! Wait, I'm sorry! I-!" But it was no use. The dog was gone, leaving the girl to scream in frustration as she collapsed in the snow, "Why am I so bad at being good?" She wailed.
"Sunset?" A voice called, to which Sunset turned to see Applejack looking at her with concern, with the rest of the Rainbooms. In response, Sunset took off running, "Sunset! Sugarcube, wait!"
"LEAVE ME ALONE!!" Sunset screamed, picking up a fresh snowball and chunked it at the Rainbooms, before she too disappeared, leaving the girls with shock expression.

...Applejack being a human lie detector is a fanon thing. And strong emotions often cause people to not think or react rationally.
Man i hope Sunset rips into Twilight for Leaving Spike alone like she des. Because one day Spike going to have enough and not even the loyal to family going to keep him around.
I’m am working on a Christmas story. As soon as I can get another keyboard and thanksgiving arrives I will try to post it. It is called Equestria Girls Christmas Disaster. I’ll try to post a new chapter every day until the day after Christmas. And it basically one year since anon-a-miss struck.

True, but Wallflower didn't exactly make much effort to make herself heard, either.
I can’t wait for the next chapter. I’m very curious on how you plan to resolve this story
favourite quote of this chapter
Zuko: You're not the only one to ask that question.
You're not an idiot Rainbow, far from it.
Hey don't blame Starlight for that.

Say it louder for the people in the back!
But seriously. Not only was Wallflower not making an active effort to be heard, she was making to be forgotten. And then was incredibly surprised when no one remembered her.
Like I said before, it’s not the school’s job to befriend Wally; it’s Wally’s job to befriend the school. (Not everyone, but at least a few students.)
