Wow. I can't believe it's come to this. Here we are, sitting in homeroom, waiting for the bell to ring so we can attend an assembly about the dangers of gossip again. Only, this time, everyone is... excited? Just yesterday, Trixie was complaining about this being "absolute torture she'll never recover from", yet now everyone is happy?
According to Octavia, "the truth" is going to be revealed at the assembly. According to Bulk Biceps, Vice Principal Luna is going to reveal "the truth" after school. According to myself, "the truth" is that I really don't care! This craziness has done nothing but send our school spiraling into madness! People are skipping classes, resorting to spying, and extorting each other for free stuff! Whatever happened to the idea that Wondercolts are supposed to support another and promote friendship? This is NOT the CHS spirit Rainbow Dash wants!
Back at the Friendship Games, she was our unifier. Now, she's our divider.
I just wish we could talk to her again.

Yo, Flash, bro, I'm really worried about Micro Chips. His aura was totally messed up yesterday, especially after watching that footage of the police putting his camera into an evidence bag. And now, he's not even in school today! Do you think he got arrested? What if he's in juvenile detention?! Oh gosh! Stupid Bow Hothoof and his stupid behind!
Wait a second. This is all MY fault! Bow Hothoof came to the school and sat on the camera because I emailed him and told him Rainbow Dash wasn't going to class! Oh no. Oh no! What was I thinking?! I was so obsessed with getting the truth, I didn't even CONSIDER the consequences! And now, my best friend is in jail, and it's all because of ME!
Oh man. I think I need to take a minute to clear my head. Tell Miss Cheerilee I've gone to the bathroom, okay? I'll be back before the assembly.

Grrrrrr. I still can't believe what happened last night. We studied for ten hours straight, sacrificing both sleep and food, and we got NOTHING from Zephyr! No truth. No hints. Not even a mention of Rainbow Dash! Let's face it, he used us, Sweetie! He used us like toilet paper! We served his needs and he threw us away! (Although, thinking it over, he's probably still going to fail his History test, so maybe we can find some solace in that.) Ugh, I'm so mad! I guess we're not gonna be the Canterlot High School's new heroes...
WHOA. Bon Bon, have you seen the hallway?! Come outside now!
To: Sunset Shimmer
From: Twilight Sparkle
Sunset, are you seeing this?! This wasn't here when we went to homeroom, was it? Every single locker has one! What's going on?!
To: Sandalwood
From: Flash Sentry
Is this a part of the assembly?! If so, NOT COOL, Principal Celestia! Now the whole school is going to know that my hair is actually PINK!
To: Applejack
From: Rarity
Okay, Applejack, haha, soooo funny! I get you were upset that I wanted to know the truth about Rainbow Dash, but did you really have to hang up that picture of me with a MULLET from 7th grade? And don't lie, I know it was you! You're the only one I've EVER shown that picture to! I trusted you!
To: Fluttershy
From: Pinkie Pie
Oh, hey, look. It's that picture of my tongue stuck to a pole. What's that doing on my locker?
To: Silver Spoon
From: Diamond Tiara
Turns out, being the Queen Bee has its perks.
Pulling this off was so easy. Rainbow Dash has the right idea, not telling anyone what's happening, because when you share your deeply personal secrets with other people, they tend to get... revealed at some point or another. Really, an anonymous source said one bad thing about Zephyr, and suddenly, I had the tools to set off a whole chain of blackmails. Zephyr says something bad about Bulk, Bulk complains about Flash, Flash complains about Sandalwood, etc. Then, all I had to do was wait until homeroom started, print out the pictures/secrets, and tape them onto their respective lockers. Yes, I did all of that and still had time to post a selfie on SnapGab, because I'm a boss and everyone needs to know it.
Really, though. How ironic is this? Our peers will spend days trying to expose "the truth" about someone else, but when their own truth is at stake, they'll throw anyone under the bus to protect it. Now, they can watch as the weight of their actions crumbles before them. Ha. Honestly, I think I did a better job teaching them a lesson than ANY assembly could. You do NOT mess with the happiness of Diamond Tiara.
Oh, by the way, we're having a redo-birthday party at my house next Saturday. Be there or be square!
To: Sunset Shimmer
From: Fluttershy
Um, can you tell me when the commotion is over? When everyone started yelling at each other, I hid in the first floor girl's bathroom with Roseluck and Violet Blurr, and now we're just shivering on the floor. The hostility out there is way too much to handle! I think a fight broke out!

From: Bon Bon
Oh, dear. Did you hear Principal Celestia's voice on the loudspeaker? We're all screwed. It's time to head to the assembly in the auditorium, also known as our place of death. It was really nice knowing you, Lyra. I will always cherish the moments we had together.
Except the Zephyr Breeze ones. I would happily forget those.
Oh my God... Diamond Tiara, you really done it this time...
Sometimes you need to lance the boil. Unfortunately, Diamond Tiara chose to nuke it from orbit. At least no one's accusing Sunset. We'll see what happens when the smoke clears.
Also, I am convinced that Silver Spoon has spent the better part of the last week sick in bed.
9899391 Yeah, really!
On another, more positive note, at least Zephyr is getting his just desserts for his stupidity.
Rarity had a mullet?
also diamond are you related to chrysalis? because this was changeling levels of deception/screwing people over.
9899407
Yeah, I can't wait for this whole thing to be set straight, and DT to get what she's got coming to her.
9899485 Yeah, you and me both on that one!
Well now! Are we going to transition into traditional prose? Or are we gonna pick up after the assembly? I can't wait to find out!
9899404
My theory is that she's been without her phone/computer the whole time. XP
They better do something well worth long-lasting before the end of everything.
Err... Pinkie, I think you're having one of your crazy moments. Let's face it, you're 100% crazy.
Zephyr, can you type in English next time.
CHS's student body should be thankful Celestia is only a principal in this dimension, because the Princess of the Sun might've vaporized the school in her anger over DT's little stunt.
Bon Bon, I think you're over-exaggerating!
This reminds me of Mean Girls.
Do you think Celestia is talking to RD about some Rainbooms related topics.
I would tell Aria this, but I don't want to give her flashbacks to 2014.
This Story is Super epic. I love a really good well done mystery story 😁 when can we expect the next chapter.
9908901
Within the next 24 hours!

Cool thanks, and forgive my impatience, I just have a huge weakness for mystery genre stories like this.
RARITY HAD A MULLET? Are her ancestors from the Down Under?
