The Mane Six and Spike are this time transported to a small town in Maine where they meet a emotionally and physically abused girl named Carrie White. However, this is no ordinary girl because Carrie possesses incredible telekinetic powers
Despite the stress and horror that came from their meeting with Eden's Gate face-to-face, let it not be said that this would be enough to scare the Mane Six (Or Spike) away from their mission. They swore that they would be there for Carrie to protect her from this group's wrath, and that is a promise they are sticking with. And sure enough, just as Carrie starts to feel she has nothing but her new power to be with her, the group are there to show her that somewhere in the world are folk who'd want to be her friends and don't care how different she is. But they're not the only ones drawing attention toward Carrie, as that Collins guy has been making a few moves on the girl himself. Even inviting her to come to the compound to hang with his friends.
As for the matter of Sue, by this point the person we assume to be just another 'mean girl' actually starts to develop a more sympathetic side. She suddenly feels horrible for the way Carrie was treated by her hands as well as her friends (Chris being the worst). Though she can't convey a reason as to 'why' she was so rash in the first place, least she's not like Chris. For refusing to face the consequences of her own actions, she cost herself her additional learning at school as well as a chance of going to prom. But something tells me that this is 'far' from settled.
11115681 Until they are able to harness their abilities again, they'll have to keep to their wits. Sometimes to get things done it takes more than having magical abilities. Course that's the funny thing about powers, you never really appreciate having them until you find yourself unable to use them. But just because they neither have their magic or super strength or ability to fly, does not mean they don't have the means of being able to solve this dilemma. So long as they got each other, they'll do just fine.
This will turn south fast. Lets hope Twilight and company can help her. And try to get the cuffs off. But then again it might be a specific kind of cuffs that cannot be removed that easily and requires a special kind of key. If I remember my old folklore stories of mythological and magical studies.
And the thing with the situation Twilight & company is that it's not so much the 'cuffs' that are the problem. As stated, it's the stones that they put 'in' the cuffs that are going to be the big problem. There're the ones of which are somehow causing a disruption to the connection to the magic that surrounds the group. As long as the stones themselves are active, they're limited to what they can do. If they want their powers back, it's going to take quite a force to disrupt the energy that power's the stones in order to be truly free.
Yeah moving out of the motel is the best bet given that Eden's Gate has already kidnapped and dumped them back in twice now. Gets into that whole "we've got people everywhere" paranoia. So cool they now got Sue as an ally.
Completely forgot that Chris' group called themselves Ultras in the remake. Can imagine some tokusatsu fans who would argue "the heck you are" to that. I do also seem to remember Margaret having a day job but completely forgot about it. Laundromat worker apparently. Would also think any school committee would raise an eye at a regular gym exercise being called a "suicide" probably preferring the term that's less dodgy, but it has been shown the school in Carrie does have its share of flaws. Though Miss Dejardin does have some positive traits otherwise.
11115702 No sense staying at a joint that Eden's Gate know that the girls and Spike had been staying in for quite some time. Still and all, Eden's Gate do have spies 'everywhere' and so naturally the group will have to be very careful moving forward. But at least it's a good thing they've managed to find a friend from the most unlikely of places.
Though I'll say this much about the 'Ultras'. Apparently they don't truly have this 'stick together' policy as when one of their members (Essentially the meanest of them all) ends up taking the fall, there's no way they'd willing to stay on that same sinking ship. That prank truly blew up in Chris's face if her own friends would abandon her for prom.
Those must be some special kind of built cuffs if the girls can still drive a car with them. and run. and be able to place hands on people's shoulders and do fist-bumps and handshakes. And normally, people would have noticed that sorta thing. But then i remembered that this is Carrie. So.......
or the cuffs are just invisible to everyone else but them.
11115802 11115815 ....oooooh,.....now that makes alot more sense. Thank you both for the clarification
11115723 That is the difference between bullies like Sue and Chris.
Deep down, Sue truly does show remorse and wants to make amends. But only acts like a bully on those weaker than herself because she's mostly following what the group does, specifically one led by Chris. If Sue even 'thinks' about not taking part in their activities, she removes herself from the popular group. So much pressure is weighing in on her that she feels...trapped as much as Carrie feels around her mother.
As for Chris, indeed karma really stinks for her. Why she chooses to act so rashly against Carrie well even then it's barely explained. She just seems like those kids who get off on bullying for no reason other than the enjoyment of watching others suffer. Sadly, there are people like this in the world and no matter how often they get called off for the pain they put upon their community, they see no reason to change their ways. Like no matter how much trouble they get in, they still feel they'll get away and everything done against them is all for naught. Some humans are just incapable of changing their ways, even if that's the 'one' change we wouldn't mind happening.
11115782 We are most pleased to hear that you are. Still got a long ways to go with this project. But we've got tons of surprises lined up for later chapters.
The very next day, the Mane Six and Spike awake with a series of splitting headaches. Groaning as they sat up from their beds, they massaged their aching, throbbing temples. Last night felt like a blue for all of them, they weren’t sure if what they experienced was real or simply a figment of their imaginations due to the stress of the situation. However, one look upon their wrists and they realized what happened the night before was absolutely true. For the very same cuffs remained, placed for the purpose of counteracting any and ‘all’ of their magic.
I'm surprised that the cult just let them go. I honestly thought they were going to be locked up for brainwashing or something.
Also, I'm probably dumb for asking, but the anti-magic cuffs the Mane 6 have on aren't like sets of handcuffs that are connected with a chain, right? Cause I thought they were when I read the last chapter, but that can't be or they'd be walking around with their wrists stuck together. So, they're more like the cuffs on Genie's wrists in Aladdin, right? c-cl.cdn.smule.com/rs-s34/arr/d6/ed/92ad3e6e-e7bd-44ae-87f2-fa0c0704e9c7_256.jpg
“I don’t care! I’m sick and tired of people who think they can run around kidnapping and torturing people all in the name of this ‘higher purpose’ they keep blabbing about. I’ll show ‘em a higher purpose after I send them flying to the moon!”
Rainbow Dash's anger keeps coming up, and after looking up some history of our guest villains, I have a bad feeling that Rainbow's gonna get a lecture on her sin is Wrath.
“This isn’t over…” Chris shook her head. “This isn’t over by a long shot.”
Sucks to suck, Chris!
“Well, why don’t you guys come stay at my place for the time being,” Sue offered. “Mom won’t mind at all. We’ve got a few guest rooms that we’re not doing anything with at the moment. I’ll meet up with you guys after school and we’ll all go over together.”
OK, good news is they don't have to go back to the date rape motel. Bad news, staying with one of the girls Carrie views as her bullies might cause a conflict with her.
“We’d only be going to the church at the Eden’s Gate compound with a few of my friends, so I’m sure she wouldn’t mind,” Derick assured her.
Oh... this is so God damn insidious! Either this kid's a pawn who really has no idea what's going on, or he's helping manipulate her. Though, if he becomes Carrie's love interest, will her mom still object or will the cult bring her in line? Is this Derick guy from the game too?
All in all, awesome chapter and really intrigued on where it could go next.
11115802 The cult definitely have their motivations. Course, they only let them go because it was under Joseph's orders. Joseph wouldn't just let them roam free if he didn't think they could still be of use outside of being locked in a cage. As for the wrists, in a way they're like those wrist chains that are wrapped around that region only they are difficult to pry off. That's a pretty close depiction of what we're attempting to explain.
Perhaps Rainbow's sin may sooner be revealed than we think. And here we were just assuming her sin is sloth.
There could very well be a conflict if Carrie finds out that the group she called 'friends' are staying with one of the bullies who tormented her. If word of that got out, she won't think to trust them (Not even Fluttershy). And that'll make things especially difficult if they don't get the chance to explain why or if Carrie refuses to believe the cult are as worse as her mother.
As for Collins, it remains a mystery where his loyalties tie at this point. On the surface, he seems like a friendly young man trying to offer Carrie a warm hand of friendship. But there's still not a lot we know about him other than he's a member of the cult. Let's just say there's more to him than we as an audience can hardly suspect.
It warms my heart knowing Carrie has close friends like the Mane 6, Collins and Sue looking out for her, Fluttershy being the closest and relates to Carrie more
11115838 Fluttershy and Carrie will definitely get along just swimmingly. This could give the pink-haired lassie a chance to prove herself if Carrie is in grave danger.
At least Sue's truly wised up, but Chris is still acting like a victim. But at least the girls and Spike have gotten through to Carrie. Just hope they can keep it up
11115848 Chris at this point is just making up excuses to justify her own issues against her. It's not like Carrie is any more popular than Chris is supposed to be. Why should she need to feel threatened?
It's normal for Twilight and her friends to distrust Sue after she participated in humiliating Carrie; but with their magic "locked", the need to have as many allies as possible, and with Sue wanting to demonstrate that she really feels bad about what she did, they give her the benefit of the doubt. I'm surprised that I was right in my prediction in the previous chapter and The Mane 6 would stay at Sue's house from now on. The motel is no longer a safe place, and this could be an opportunity to get to know her better. Speaking of Carrie, the young woman is already more aware of her psychic powers and she is interested in learning to control it. A bad moment, since she is being affected by the teasing of her classmates for the video uploaded about her and by Joseph's words. Luckily, Carrie finds in the Mane 6, Fluttershy especially, what she has always wanted: support, love, faithful friends and someone who understands her pain. Speaking of support from friends, Chis clearly doesn't have that. After how she spoke to Desjardin, it doesn't surprise me, but what makes my blood boil is that Chris believes that he has done nothing wrong; and not because she isn't aware of the damage and severity of her actions, but because she believes that she can do whatever he wants. But she has made a mistake: Desjardin isn't a classmate that she can intimidate, but a teacher who doesn't tolerate bullying and who isn't willing to back down from threats. Sue takes the first step to her redemption by refusing to support Chris in her protest against Desjardin. Unfortunately, Chris has learned nothing. Her friends already abandoned her when Fluttershy and the rest defended Carrie, and they have done it again now, and that has only increased her desire for revenge against Carrie.
The very next day, the Mane Six and Spike awake with a series of splitting headaches. Groaning as they sat up from their beds, they massaged their aching, throbbing temples. Last night felt like a blue for all of them, they weren’t sure if what they experienced was real or simply a figment of their imaginations due to the stress of the situation.
Me: "Oh trust me. If I were stressed THAT much, I'd lose my hair and have a heart attack and die!"
However, one look upon their wrists and they realized what happened the night before was absolutely true. For the very same cuffs remained, placed for the purpose of counteracting any and ‘all’ of their magic.

“Well it ain’t,” Applejack responded. “We was about tah be killed last night!”
“I’ve never felt so weak and helpless in all my life,” Rarity shuddered, frightened. “When I was shoved under that water, my entire life flashed before my eyes. I was worried I’d never see my family or husband ever again.”
Back in the theater, Sweetie Belle cried a waterfall of tears as she hugged Erik for comfort. Even though he's wearing a mask, the Phantom of the Opera could not hide the worried looks, or tears, on his face.
Sugarbelle and Big Mac both hugged each other close for comfort, at Applejack's near death experience. Though, Sugarbelle seemed to be strangling Big Mac, throttling him like a ragdoll.
“I was worried I’d never see my Cheesy or my sweet Lil’ Cheese again,” Pinkie added tearfully.
Lil'Cheese: (Bawling his eyes out) "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
“I was worried I’d never see the greatest friends I’ve ever had in my life!” Spike cried out, hugging himself.
Thorax: (Hugs Ember) "EMBEEEEEEEEERRRRR!!!!"
Ember: (Tries to hold back her tears) "THORAAAAAAAAAXXXX!!!"
Close by, Gabby was hugging Gilda, who tries her best to console the griffon, at the nightmare of nearly losing Spike.
“That was the most terrifying, awful moment I’ve ever experienced!” Fluttershy sobbed.
Growling under her breath, Rainbow stood up on shaky legs, stumbling her way through the door to their room. Everyone noticed her leave, quickly gained their bearings, and made their way after her.
“Rainbow, what are you doing?!” Spike yelled after her.
“What’s it look like I’m doing?!” Rainbow yelled back. “When I find those stupid brainwashing creeps, I’ll tear them smack dab in half!”
“Have you gone completely mad?!” Rarity asked, shocked. “So long as we have these cuffs on, we’re powerless! You’d be walking right into a slaughter if you do this darling.”
“I don’t care! I’m sick and tired of people who think they can run around kidnapping and torturing people all in the name of this ‘higher purpose’ they keep blabbing about. I’ll show ‘em a higher purpose after I send them flying to the moon!”
Anakin Skywalker: "Do it then. You'll be dead in a heartbeat...stupid girl..."
Applejack quickly ran up and tackled her girlfriend to the ground, all while Rainbow struggled in her grip.
“Let me go!” She yelled. “You can’t stop me! Let me go!”
“Yah ain’t thinkin’ straight sugar cube!” Applejack grunted. “Believe me, ah wanna take the fight tah them varmints mahself! But we gotta be patient. We walk in there without our abilities, we’d be dead in seconds. Ah ain’t losin’ ya, now or never.”
Rainbow struggled for a few moments more before eventually she started calming down, allowing her girlfriend’s words to sink. It was clear Applejack was right: They walk into Eden’s Gate territory with nothing but the clothes on their backs, no question they wouldn’t be walking out again. As she took a few deep breaths, Applejack got off her and helped her up.
“Ah girls… Spike… what’ll we do now?” Rainbow asked. “We can’t just let these wackos get away with all of this!”
“Not to worry Rainbow, I’ve got a plan,” Twilight told her.

“What you got Twi?” Spike asked.
“First things first, we need to get to the school and warn Carrie of all this,” Twilight explained. “No doubt Eden’s Gate will be coming for us, so there’s no doubt they’re gunning for her too.”
“I hope she’s alright,” Fluttershy said worriedly. “I know we just met, but still I can’t help but worry for the poor dear. She’s so young…”
“Don’t worry Fluttershy,” Pinkie assured, placing a hand on her shoulder. “We won’t let those big meanies do anything to her or my name isn’t Pinkamena Diane Pie. Or if Gummy’s full name isn’t Gummy Julio Ricardo Montoya Delarosa Ramirez!”
Maud Pie: "Pinkie, your name is Pinkamena Diane Pie."

EQG Pinkie Pie: "That's my name! Don't wear it out!"
Everyone in the room, who knows Pinkie Pie well enough, obliged. Though, the Looney Tunes, Tom and Jerry, were still in awe at the pink girl.
Everyone turned toward Pinkie Pie, each with a quirked eyebrow.
“Is that really his full name?” Spike asked.
“No, but could you imagine?” Pinkie giggled.
Everyone once more rolled their eyes and groaned over Pinkie’s randomness before they piled into Twilight’s car. They soon made their way toward Ewan High, and they knew the time had come to put some holes in the plans of Eden’s Gate. If they had ‘any’ hope of doing so, they needed to warn their new friends immediately.
Extra Cut
No sooner had the Equestrian Heroes leave, the demonic creature from last night stepped out from behind a tree, with its gleaming eyes dead set on the heroes. Though under the cover of darkness, its rotten teeth gleamed in what little light could shine on its frightening smile, drooling with a mixture of slobber and blood.
It smells of death. It waved its massive hands up, almost as haunting and gauntingly as a tree branch, swaying in the breeze, sending a crow on its way.
11116422 It's perfectly understandable. Like we said there was no need to feel rushed. Just work at your own pace. We merely finished up a chapter. Should be ready either tonight or tomorrow.
Outside the school football field, Chris Hargensen and all her Ultras friends stood outside waiting for gym class. Miss Desjardin blew her whistle drawing the girls’ attention. The boys races off the field as the girls lined up. Miss Desjardin seemed pleasantly cheerful today.
“All right stand up, line up please,” Miss Desjardin ordered. “You have a big week coming up. A big month, actually! Probably the biggest month of your lives! Prom and then graduation. Are you excited?”
All the girls smiled and laughed in agreement, as Miss Desjardin smiled toward them.
Equestria Girls
The Rainbooms and Shadowbolts all smiled in equal nostalgia, as they both remembered their prom nights and graduation. The CMCs and their classmates couldn't help but smile in excitement for their big night(s) coming up.
Galaxy
Sunset Shimmer: "Ah...memories..." (Smiles in nostalgia, which Ben Solo and Galen Marek find amusing)
“Probably all have your dresses, have your dates by now.”
Miss Desjardin walked over toward Chris till they were able to see each other eye to eye.
“What about you, Chris?” She asked. “Who’s the lucky guy?”
“Billy Nolan,” Chris responded. “You don’t know him; he doesn’t go to this school.”
But all at once, Miss Desjardin’s expression shifted from cheerful to accusatory in a matter of seconds.
“Are you gonna get him a boutonniere?” She asked. “Or are you just gonna pin a bloody tampon to his lapel?”
“I so don’t need to hear this!” Chris sighed with an eye roll.
Chris turned to walk away, clearly in no mood for a lecture. But she hadn’t gone far when Miss Desjardin blocked her path.
“You’re not going anywhere.”
Miss Desjardin walked Chris back in loon, then walked toward Sue.
“What about you, Sue?” She asked. “Are you and Tommy busy campaigning to be prom king and queen? I would have voted for you… not now.”

“This is bullshit!” Chris yelled out.

In response, Sunset Shimmer stuck her own tongue out at her young apprentice.
“That’s it!” Ms. Desjardin declared. “Thanks to Miss Hargensen, you can run suicides!”
The groaned over the idea of doing suicide drills for a punishment.

Audience: "Suicide?!"
Daffy Duck: "She wants her sthudents-th to kill each other?! Sthounds-th a bit dark for a teacher..."
EQG Rainbow Dash: "Uh...not exactly that kind of suicide, Daffy..."
Suddenly, Discord makes another of his random appearance on the Equestria Girls' movie theater screen.
Discord: (To EQG Rainbow Dash) "Sweetheart. Don't take this personal. But I think you could use some of Hogwart's Hufflepuff, NOT self-appointed, Professor Discord's patented lecture."
And with that, Discord pulls down a blackboard, as he explains:
Basically, for those not familiar with the ‘suicide drills’: It began with a sprint from one cone to the next. Once there, the object was to kneel down and touch the cone. Then it was a matter of running back to the first, then running to the next farthest away till all the cones are touched. And as if that wasn’t enough… they’d have to do the ‘whole’ obstacle course all over again!
Discord: "...until the runner DIES!" (Points to a cartoon drawing of Wallflower Blush, with x for eyes, and holding a flower to her chest)
Wallflower Blush: (Visibly disturbed) "Hey! Is that me...dying?"
Discord: "Why of course! Makes it look more dramatic."
All the audience in the Equestria Girls' theater gasped at Discord's morbid explanation, while turning to Wallflower turning white as a sheet.
“I’m not doing it!” Chris argued back.
“That’s up to you,” Miss Desjardin smirked. “That’s up to all of you, but anyone who stops running is ‘suspended’, and if you’re suspended… you don’t go to prom.”
The other girls faced each other in horror over what was just heard. Either they partake in the suicides, or they can refuse and miss their one chance to make high school memories ‘forever’. And all because of ‘one’ prank.
Me: "Oh wow! Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place."
Spitfire: "I'm liking this Desjardin character."
Miss Desjardin soon turned and looked straight into Sue’s eyes.
“While you’re running, I’d like you all to think long and hard… about what it would be like to be Carrie White.”
Bulk Biceps: "YEAAAH!!!"
Crazy Steve: "YEAAAAAH!!! JUSTICE FOR CARRIE WHITE!!!"
All the girls began to run the suicides, as Miss Desjardin drilled them along the way. While they were in the midst of doing so, Twilight’s car pulled up along the parking lot with a skid. The Mane Six and Spike soon jumped out with Twilight taking the lead. They ran as fast as they could onto the football field, passing the girls along the way, and raced straight toward the gym teacher.
“Miss Desjardin!” Twilight called out.
The teacher in question quickly turned when she heard her name called out. She smiled upon seeing the six familiar girls and one teenage boy.
“Well hello kids,” She greeted. “What are you doing out here today?”
“We came looking for Carrie,” Twilight continued. “Have you seen her? It’s important we talk to her.”
Crazy Steve: "AND MAKE SURE YOU DON'T SLAP HER AGAIN, BIG FAT MEANIE!!!"
“I don’t think she’s arrived yet,” Miss Desjardin shrugged. “But when she does, my best guess is she’ll be in study hall at the library.”
The girls and Spike start to turn heel for a run toward the school. But they quickly stopped in their tracks the moment Sue Snell ran in front of them.
Apple Bloom: "Uh oh. Here comes trouble..."
“Wait a minute!” She said.
“Oh, what do you want?” Rainbow spat at her.
“Look, I feel really bad about what happened with Carrie. But I just want to say…”
“Oh… ya mean when you and all yer little ‘friends’ were makin’ fun ah Carrie?” Applejack retorted. “Or when ya were y’all throwin’ stuff at her face? Hasn’t she had enough!”
“I know that was wrong. And I feel really bad about it, but…”
“Look darling, if you’re looking to apologize you’re talking to the wrong girls,” Rarity told her. “Apologize to Carrie… then we can talk. Now if you’ll excuse us, the rest of us have work to do… and apparently you do too.”
Crazy Steve: "Yeah! So make like a tree and leave! Or better yet, be like a piñata ANDBEAT IT!!!!"
Smolder: (To Discord) "Nothing would thrill me more than to sic Norberta on those girls..." (Strokes Norberta's chin)
The girls and Spike quickly walked around Sue to continue their way towards the school.
“I saw what happened last night!”
This made everyone freeze in place, like a pack of deer in front of headlights. Slowly, they all turned back toward Sue with wide eyes.
“So you saw…”
Sue didn’t let them finish and just nodded her head. Everyone faced each other, then back toward Sue.
“How much did you see?” Twilight asked.
“Not very much I’m afraid,” Sue responded. “My boyfriend Tommy and I were out there last night when we saw those cultist guys drive up and pull you guys from the vans. We left shortly after to tell the police. They just brushed it off as us seeing things, and all they cared about was why ‘we’ were out in the middle of the night.”
“Did you tell ‘anyone’ else?” Spike asked.
“I’ve tried, but no one in this town believes me. Not even my own mom. That’s the problem: These people don’t want to admit groups like this exist.”
Extra Cut
That and both Sue and Tommy were scared out of their wits on the bigger scariest thing they ever saw at night.
“Well we do believe,” Twilight responded. “More importantly, we’ve seen what they can do. That’s why we must help Carrie because we know for a fact they want her.”
“Then let me help,” Sue suggested. “This is my ‘one’ to chance to make it up to Carrie after all the horrible things I’ve done to her. I’ve got to do this.”
The girls and Spike looked at each other for a moment, considering the possibility. On one hand, they were extremely skeptical of Sue after what she and her friends did to Carrie the other day. Naturally, they weren’t sure if Sue could be trusted. On the other hand, they could clearly see she was feeling remorse for her part in it all.
General Supernova: (To Princess Luna, Anakin Skywalker, and Storm Shield) "Can she be trusted?"
Anakin Skywalker: "I sense regret. Very deep regret from Sue..."
Princess Luna: "It mirrors the same amount of regret I've once had. And you, Ani. Honestly, I believe she should be given a chance."
Storm Shield: "I concur, auntie. May the Force be with them..."
EQG Rainbow Dash: "Oh shut up, Daffy!" (Clamps a mousetrap on his beak, before giving a fist bump to Jerry and Speedy Gonzales)
EQG Applejack: "I may not be in the adventure, but I can tell, she's really sorry, and she...she... It's like looking at Sunset Shimmer all over again..."
Galaxy
Sunset Shimmeer: "She's really sorry."
Ben Solo: (To Sunset Shimmer) "Why should we trust her, Master? Why can't they just beat her to a pulp? It's probably another trick. Once a bully, always a bully!"
Sunset Shimmer: (To Ben Solo) "That's not true, Ben! Not everything can be solved, simply by...killing, or beating, or in your case, cutting things down to size!" (Points to what was once a large boulder, now reduced to pebble) "And not everyone are evil permanently. Some have just...been misguided and needed to see the light to the error of their ways! I should know, because...I...was a Sith."
Ben Solo: "Huh?"
Jedi Younglings (and the Padawan alumnis from the Clone War series: "WHAT?!"
Even though Applejack lost her strength, she could still sense the honesty in others and Sue was being one hundred percent honest. And so, a decision was made.
“Alright, you can help us,” Twilight concluded. “But please be careful. Eden’s Gate are already after us, we don’t need them coming after you too.”
“Thank you!” Sue thanked them. “I promise you won’t regret this.”
“Sue!” Miss Desjardin yelled from the sidelines. “You got time to talk, you got time to run!”
Sue looked over her shoulder toward her teacher then back toward the others.
“Okay guys, I have to get back before Desjardin puts my head on a stick,” Sue said quickly. “Before I go, you guys have anywhere to stay?”
“We were staying at a motel outside town,” Applejack answered. “Don’t reckon we’ll be stayin’ though. Eden’s Gate came and snatched us in the middle of the night.”
“Well, why don’t you guys come stay at my place for the time being,” Sue offered. “Mom won’t mind at all. We’ve got a few guest rooms that we’re not doing anything with at the moment. I’ll meet up with you guys after school and we’ll all go over together.”
Suddenly Pinkie popped right next to her, and the poor girl nearly jumped out of her shoes. But Pinkie soon had Sue in her grasp, wrapping her arms around her with a bone-crushing hug.
“Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!” Pinkie exclaimed. “That’s the kindest thing anyone’s done for us since we got here. When we get back to Equestria, I’m throwing the biggest ‘Thank You Sue’ party. It’ll be so much fun with games and cake and…”
Sue struggled for life in Pinkie’s tight grasp till eventually her friends pulled the party girl off her. Sue finally took some much needed breaths before running back to the field. Everyone turned with a glare toward Pinkie, who just smiled sheepishly.
“Too much?”

After Sunset Shimmer revealed the heart wrenching truth to her young apprentice, and some of the newly arrived Jedi's present, she explains:
Sunset Shimmer: "When I first arrived to this galaxy, I arrived at a bad time, in a bad place. And...everyday, it was a nightmare. And all I could think about was wishing and praying that my friends would come and find me. The only friend I had was Galen Marek...back when he was called 'Starkiller.' He was there for me, every time I was beaten, humiliated, and stomped to the ground, by Palpatine and the Inquisitors. Still, I held onto my hope that...that my friends would find me, and rescue me."
Ben Solo: "And...did they find you, master?"
Sunset Shimmer: (Shakes her head) "No... I waited too long. And...it was all Palpatine needed to trick me into..." (Covers her eyes to hide her tears) "I was tricked into embracing the Dark Side of the Force and...it made me into a...an angry, mindless person, who was obsessed with killing...my friends."
Jedi Younglings: GASPS
C3PO: "Oh goodness gracious! How terrible!"
Ben Solo: "You killed your own friends?!"
Sunset Shimmer: "NO! Thank goodness, no... I was just lucky that Twilight could...snap me back to my senses. And I was fortunate that I had Grand Master Satele Shan, Darth Marr, Valora Synn, and Revan, to help me..." (Clearing her head) "Look, I'm only telling you this because I want you all to understand...not everyone is entirely evil. Most of us were just taught the wrong way, or see the world from a different perspective. And not every Siths are bad either. Even me, Darth Marr, or your grandfather, Ben."
Young Ben Solo tried to comprehend everything is mentor had revealed to him. There were still some unanswered questions, and his head is brimming with questions on more knowledge that Sunset didn't reveal to him fully, from the start. He looked up to his mentor, just as much as he idolizes his late grandfather – Anakin Skywalker a.k.a. Darth Vader.
Sunset Shimmer never once steered him wrong. But all the same, the young Jedi-in-training is still full of questions that would have to be asked later. Right now, they have a movie to watch.
Outside the school, the bell rings as Margaret White’s car pulled toward the curb. Margaret kissed Carrie upon the cheek, the latter dressed in a multitude of layers. A jacket, a flannel shirt, a skirt, her hair tied in a braid, and wearing a cross necklace. Clearly, Margaret wanted her to dress as conservatively as possible. And on that note… she succeeded.
Equestria Girls
Yeah. She succeeded...in traumatizing Rarity...the said fashionista has fainted.
“I’m going to leave work early today and pick you up after school,” Margaret replied.
Margaret kept close watch on Carrie, who slowly walked inside the school feeling as though her mother was watching her every step of the way.
Me: "Eesh. She's like a vulture..."
Soon as Margaret finally pulled away, Carrie turned back and breathed a sigh of relief. Due to her experience the night before and Jacob implanting the idea in her head that she wouldn’t remember anything, she was completely clueless as to what actually happened. Thankfully, she turned around just in time to stop herself from running into a certain boy she’d already run into before. Derick Collins looked toward her with the same hypnotizing sterling eyes, and she was immediately hooked.
“We really must stop meeting like this,” Derick chuckled.
Carrie gave an awkward chuckle before going around Derick, continuing on her way.
Princess Cadence: (Giggling) "Deja vu?"
Shining Armor: (Chuckling) "I guess so."
Flurry Heart: "Is it about the story of auntie Twilight and her schoolgirl crush with that Flash Sentry stallion?"
Storm Shield: (Startled) "Who?"
Before she could get too far, she felt the hand of the teenage boy on her shoulder. Immediately, she stopped in place.
“Whoa, whoa! Where are you going in such a hurry?” Derick chuckled again.
Carrie just stood there without another world, and neither was she moving a muscle.
“Everything okay?” Derick asked.
“Please just leave me alone,” Carrie whispered.
“Huh?”
“I said, please leave me alone!” Carrie said a bit louder.
Derick immediately retracted his hand to his side.
“What’d I say?” He asked confused. “Did I do something wrong?”
“P-Please…” Carrie plead.
Derick was beyond confused right now, yet he could hear the trepidation in her voice. He backed away with his hands raised in defense.
“Alright, I can take a hint,” He spoke. “Sorry for bugging you.”
He turned to walk away, when suddenly he felt a much smaller hand on ‘his’ shoulder.
“Wait, I didn’t mean that!” Carrie said quickly. “I’m sorry, I’m just not very good at being social. I haven’t exactly had very much experience.”
Derick chuckled a bit before turning back around, looking toward the nervous girl.
“Don’t worry about it,” He assured her. “I understand more people around here would sooner throw tampons at you than talk to you.”

Audience:
Shining Armor: "D'OH!"
Sugarcoat: (To Derick) "Poor choice of words!"
Carrie flushed red with embarrassment and tried to turn around before Derick stopped her.
“Sorry, bad choice of words,” He apologized. “I mean you don’t have to worry about being so shy and closed up around me. I’m not here to hurt or make fun of you. Actually, I always thought you were… cute.”

Audience: "Oooh!"
Bugs Bunny: (Nudging EQG Fluttershy) "Well, well, well. Now we're gettin' somewhere." (Nudges Wallflower Blush) "Ain't I right, or ain't I right?"
Wallflower Blush: "Right, Bugs." (Fluttershy giggles in agreement)
Upon hearing this, Carrie blushed harder and tried to hide her face away. Of this which only made Derick laugh.
“Anyway, I’m really glad I ran into you,” Derick confessed. “I was wondering if you wanted to hang out after school later.”
“I can’t!” Carrie shook her head. “Momma would never let me go anywhere with a boy. She’d never let me go anywhere at all.”
“We’d only be going to the church at the Eden’s Gate compound with a few of my friends, so I’m sure she wouldn’t mind,” Derick assured her. “The Father says that trust amongst our brothers and sisters is one of the most important things we can have. So what do you say?”
Discord: "Now there's a guy who knows his loopholes. Ten points to Discord!"
Ocellus: "Uh, Discord? We're not in Hogwarts. You can't just give points to yourself."
Discord: "Oh yes I can. Because I'M a Hogwarts Professor. Ten points from Gryffindor for mocking my authority."
Random Dudes: "...Thanks Ocellus..."
Carrie thought for a moment, considering his words. If she and him were going with a group of teenagers from Eden’s Gate at their church compound, what was the harm? After all, Margaret started taking Carrie to the church to get her in touch with God for the longest time.
“Okay,” She smiled. “I’ll go, but so long as I can meet you there. Momma is picking me up after school and she’d rather take me than have me go with anyone else.”
“We can work with that,” Derick nodded. “I look forward to hanging with you later.”
Derick gingerly reached forward and brushed a single strand of hair from Carrie’s face and behind her ear. He then smiled at her before turning around and making his way to class. And the whole time, Carrie watched him feeling the butterflies in her stomach fluttering inside her like hummingbirds. And for some unexplainable reason, she felt a slight… attraction to this mysterious man.
Princess Cadence: "How romantic!"
Silver Shill: (With a plate of spaghetti) "Ahem! Princess Luna and General Supernova. Your dinner." (Gently sets the spaghetti for Princess Luna and her date) "Bon appetite!"

Meanwhile…
Miss Desjardin blew her whistle, pressing the girls to keep going. The whole time the girls sprinted across the field. They were sore, tired, and panting for breath, clearing having been at this for a while. The girls eventually broke into pairs while they continued their suicide drills.
“She can’t do this to us,” Chris grunted.
“Just let it go, Chris,” Sue insisted. “We’re almost done.”
“Then every day this week? All because of Carrie White?! Like hell I will!”
Discord: "Hmmmm. That can be arranged..."
“Keep moving, Hargensen!” Miss Desjardin ordered. “Keep moving or you’re not going to prom.”
“Fuck you!” Chris snapped. “This is child abuse!”
Me: "Child abuse?" (Gasps) "Are you saying you're...11 years old and you're still wearing diapers?"
Equestria Girls
Sugarcoat: (To Chris) "You're at least 17 years old and you're still whining like a bratty six year old..."
Miss Desjardin stopped in her tracks, she glared toward the girl. Even Sue, Chris’s closest friend, was shocked by her choice of words. Sternly, Miss Desjardin approached Chris, who merely got right up in her face.
“What did you just say to me?!” Miss Desjardin asked.
“I’m not gonna move another goddamn inch because Carrie White had her period and was too stupid to know what it was!”
“What?” Sue asked, in disbelief.
Me: (To Sue) "You heard her. She's chosen death. Better start digging her burial right now..."
“You’re suspended, you’re outta prom and you’re out of my class, now!” Miss Desjardin shouted, turning to leave.
“No!” Chris snapped.
“No?!” Miss Desjardin whipped around.
“You can’t decide that!” Chris declared, facing the girls for support. “She can’t do this to us!”
Equestria Girls
EQG Sweetie Belle: "Well, technically speaking, she can, because she's the teacher. And you're just her student."
EQG Rainbow Dash: "Who does this girl think she is? Queen of England?"
Bugs Bunny: "Maybe she just can't accept the fact that if she's gonna throw a tantrum, like child. She might as well be treated like one."
“Goodbye, Chris. The rest of you, keep at it.”
Spitfire: "YOU HEARD THE LADY, LADIES! KEEP AT IT!!!"
“Someone could die of dehydration. Tina, you have a heart condition, right? If we all stick together, they’re not going to suspend all of us, they’re not going to keep us all from prom, there would be no prom! Nick? Lizzie?”
But sadly, the other girls didn’t appear convinced at all.
“Let’s go, ladies!” Miss Desjardin called out.
“Heather, this is bullshit!” Chris insisted. “We didn’t do anything wrong!”
Me: "Ugh...That's like Chloé Bourgeois and Princess Morbucks merged into one..."
It was then Chris started to realize she’s truly alone in all this. Not another girl among the group was budging an inch.
“Alright, let’s go!” Miss Desjardin shouted again.
“Right, Sue?” Chris begged, taking her arm. “You’re with me on this, right? Come on.”
“Sue…”
And almost immediately, Sue pulled her arm from Chris’ grip. Her facial expression was more than enough to tell Chris, ‘No!’.
“Come on,” Sue told the girls.
Soon Sue and the other girls kept with their sprints, while Miss Desjardin encouraged the group to keep going. It didn’t take long for Chris to realize what she had gotten herself into. It wasn’t enough that she got suspended from school, but now she won’t be going to the prom. And all because of one practical joke against Carrie White.
“This isn’t over…” Chris shook her head. “This isn’t over by a long shot.”
Chris soon stormed off the field, shedding Veruca Salt tears while the other girls kept exercising. But brewing deep within that sadistic mind of hers, a plot of revenge was slowly developing.

Sunset Shimmer: (Pinching her temples) "Argh. Ben..."
Ben Solo: "Yes, Master?"
Sunset Shimmer: "Remember what I said about how not everyone is truly evil and some are just...misguided and deserves a second chance?"

Sunset Shimmer: "Well...when all else fails...then they should be killed."
Ben Solo: (Nods in agreement) "Okay." (Was about to try the Force Choke on Chris, only for Sunset to stop him)
Sunset Shimmer: "BUT only if it's their choice to face their destiny..."
Carrie shuffled through the halls quietly and calmly. Everyone looked toward her, and she could hear them laughing. She soon passed a row of lockers where the janitor scrubbed off the graffiti which read, ‘CARRIE WHITE EATS SHIT’. Humiliated beyond measure, she hurried away as every student looked after her, laughing their heads off.
Silverstream: "Poor girl."

Sunny Starscout: "And I thought our world has had some...social issues..."
Carrie ducked straight into the girls’ restroom. She put down her book bag and looked herself in the mirror. Disgusted by how she looked, she quickly unbraid her hair still upset over everything. The whole time she stared at herself in the mirror, she could hear Joseph Seed’s words ringing in her ears.
“Cull the herd… weed out the weak… purge the sinners…”
Her anger caused her telekinesis to crack the mirror.

Juniper Montage: "Oh no! SEVEN YEARS OF BAD LUCK!!!"
She channeled her anger toward the mirror, causing more cracks till the whole mirror shattered, sending shards of glass into the sink in front of her.
Galaxy
Back in the galaxy, Sunset, Galen Marek, young Ben Solo, and their Jedi colleagues felt the raw power from Carrie.
Sunset Shimmer: "Of course. So much raw emotion. Pain, anger, hatred, and...suffering. It's...It's higher than mine, and Darth Vader's...I mean, Anakin's!"
Wide eyed, it dawned on Carrie she was truly causing things to move on their own… and she could control it! She looked around to make certain she’s alone, then tried again. She stared toward the shards of glass in the sink, and they started to vibrate. Carrie focused with visible effort and several shards floated a few inches in the air. Carrie, in disbelief, smiled at her new power.
Anakin Skywalker: "I don't need a midichlorian count to know the Force is strong with her..."
Galaxy
Ben Solo: "She needs a teacher! We could show her the way of the Force! We have to go get her!"
The sound of a door opening drew Carrie’s attention, and the glass dropped. Carrie stood over the sink, hiding her actions as someone came in. Carrie quickly grabbed her book bag, set to avoid any trouble.
“Carrie!”
Carrie jumped upon hearing her name called and when she turned around the Mane Six and Spike walked towards her. Recognizing some familiar, friendly faces, she calmed down immediately.
Galaxy
Sunset Shimmer: (To Ben Solo) "Hold on, Ben! Let's wait and see what's first..."
“Hello everyone,” She greeted casually. “What can I do for you all?”
“We need to speak to you,” Twilight told her.
“It’s really important darling,” Rarity added.
“Well, I was just on my way to the library for study hall,” Carried told them. “You can come if you want.”
Pipsqueak: (To Princess Luna) "Princess Luna? Will Carrie be alright?"
Princess Luna: (To Pipsqueak) "I hope so, Pip. But...I can't be sure..."
At a table in the school library, the Mane Six and Spike sat on one side of the table with Carrie White sitting by herself reading a book. Among the group, Fluttershy felt bad for the girl. A child bullied her entire life just for being socially awkward, so different compared to everyone else. Something Fluttershy could relate with personally, like watching a mirror of her past playing out before her eyes. Eventually, she approached Carrie’s side at the desk and casually sat next to her.
“What are you reading?” Fluttershy spoke.
“Nothing!” Carrie replied awkwardly, hiding the book. “I mean… you guys wouldn’t be interested anyway. Just some research for homework—”
“Oh, I’m into research myself,” Twilight Sparkle replied. “Can we at least have a look?”
At fistfirst Carrie didn’t know how to answer the question. It felt so unreal: These girls and a boy, a group she only met a few days ago, were speaking with CarrisCarrie as if they’ve known each other for years. Slowly Carrie turned her head toward Fluttershy.
“I don’t normally get these conversations,” Carrie spoke quietly. “I mean… who’d hang out with a girl who can’t even have a normal life… or even be good at ‘anything’.”
The majority of the group stared toward Carrie sympathetically. Fluttershy gently placed her hand upon Carrie’s, the latter releasing a heavy sigh of sadness.
“I know what you are going through,” Fluttershy said sympathetically. “Growing up, I didn’t have many friends. Even when I had one, I still felt like I had no pon—no one to rely on… I felt alone most of my life.”
Zephyr Breeze: "Gosh...I...I didn't know." (To Mr. and Mrs. Shy) "Fluttershy's just...exaggerating. Right?"
Mr. Shy: "Uh, actually son...no."
Equestria Girls
Bugs Bunny: (To EQG Fluttershy) "Was that the same with you, Fluttershy?"
EQG Fluttershy: (Sadly nods her head) "Yes. It's true...I was so shy that...I was bullied 24/7, for being so weak and so...shy..." (Bugs Bunny tenderly squeezes her hand, which she squeezed, before hugging the cartoon rabbit, for showing some rare signs of sympathy and fragility now and then)
Galaxy
Sunset Shimmer looked down in shame, as she recalled how she too once belittled EQG Fluttershy, all the same.
“She’s not exaggerating kiddo,” Rainbow replied. “I was there through it all when Fluttershy and I were at school together. All those kids, picking on her just because she wasn’t… strong as they were. I couldn’t stand that behavior… so we know how you must feel.”
Gilda: "Fun fact: I was once a bullied griffon, until I met Dash. And we kicked the competitions out of the sky."
Carrie was rather surprised for several reasons. The first was clearly Fluttershy’s own confession, and the next was how they all seemed to understand Carrie’s upbringing. The young girl in general couldn’t even imagine what the pink-haired teen had gone through, or if her condition were any worse than hers. Yet somehow, it felt exactly the same as the path Carrie had gone through.
“Why are you helping me?” Carrie asked. “I know I asked the first time, but…”
“My dad told me helping someone in need is like caring a flower,” Fluttershy explained. “You can either ignore it and let it suffer… or you can take care of it to ensure it has a better future...."
Mr. Shy: "That's my girl!"
Equestria Girls
EQG Fluttershy smiled in agreement, with all of her friends putting their hands on her shoulders. Even Tom and Jerry joined in, not wanting to be left out.

Izzy Moonbow: "OH! I KNOW! I KNOW! It's Sunny Starscout's Friends Forever!"
Sunny Starscout: "Uh...Izzy. I wasn't even born then..."
“Super Shy Friends Forever,” Fluttershy translated. “And I’d like to be your friend… forever.”
Oh! So close for most of us...
“We’d all be willing to, darling,” Rarity added. “You look just like the type of dear who can sure use some friends right now.”
For whatever reason, the way they were speaking to him, Carrie felt this warmth she hadn’t felt her whole life. It was like a pack of angels had come to her aid, seeking nothing more than mere companionship.
“Sure!” Carrie smiled happily.
“That’s the spirit!” Spike smiled.
Then she saw Fluttershy clench her hand into a fist, raising it slightly into the air. Carrie also clenched her fist and slowly raised it toward her level.
“Super…” Fluttershy spoke.
“Shy…” Carrie added.
The group smiled as two fists collided with each other, and in the midst of their ‘fist bump’ the girls in question declared:
“Friends forever…”

Carrie stared toward the window in class, not paying much attention to the course. Yet she couldn’t remove the smile that was growing on her face. On one hand, she was getting the knack of her newfound gift performing some as simple as making a flag flap. On the other hand, a group of kids and one mysterious teenage boy all wanted to extend a hand of friendship toward her without reason to judge her. As if for the first in a while, she suddenly felt the way almost every other student felt when they’re surrounded by friends. Seemed perhaps things were slowly starting to look up.
“Alright, who’s next?” Mr. Ulmann the teacher spoke. “Uh… Carrie?”
Soon as her name was called, Carrie turned to face the teacher.
“Favorite poem. Did you bring one?”
All the kids turned toward her, several of them laughed. The only ones not laughing were Twilight and her friends, who had taken seats along the back of the class to keep tabs over Carrie. To even suggest that Carrie was nervous was without question an understatement.
“Yeah…” Carrie murmured.
“Why don’t you come to the front of the class and share it with us all?” Mr. Ulmann beckoned.
Carrie slowly got up from her seat and cautiously made her way down toward the front of the class. Sue and Tommy, whose desks are next to Carrie’s, could see how uncomfortable she appeared to be. The other students quietly snickered as she approached the front.
Gilda: "You guys won't be laughing soon enough. You're just lucky I'm here. Otherwise I'd TWIST YOU ALL LIKE PRETZELS, inside AND OUT!"
Soon as she stood at the front of the room, facing the entire class, she kept her eyes on her book and read her poem of choice.
“This un…
“’This unfrequented place to find some ease, ease to the body some, none to the mind. Times past, and what once I was and what am now o wherefore was my birth from Heaven foretold. Twice by an Angel, who at last in sight of both my parents all in flames… ascended.’”
Soon as Carrie was finished, the whole class just stared in surprise and confusion.
All Theaters

Princess Celestia: "Oh my..."
Sunny Starscout: "I...I..."
Even Twilight and her friends seemed surprised, though whether they understood the meaning remained to be determined.
“Uh… did you get that?” Spike whispered to Rainbow.
“Do I look like a poet to you?” Rainbow whispered harshly.
“Okay, uh, that was, uh…” Mr. Ulmann stammered. “Disturbing.”
The other kids laughed, especially Tina, who clearly had Mr. Ulmann’s ear. Derick, sitting between the students, merely glared toward Mr. Ulmann angrily.
“This is the most you’ve said all year,” Mr. Ulmann continued. “Anything else you wanna add or are you done scaring us for the day?”
Me: (To Mr. Ulmann) "Hey, at least she did her assignment. So cut her some slack, will ya?"
“Asshole…” Derick muttered, under his breath.
The other students turned and gasped toward him. There was no doubt everyone heard him, especially the teacher.
“Excuse me, Mr. Collins,” Mr. Ulmann spoke up. “Did you say something?”
“I said ‘awesome’!” Derick lied. “Thought what Carrie read was awesome. Didn’t you, Mr. Ulmann?”
Carrie hurried back to her desk, trying to avoid further trouble.
“All right, who’s next?” Mr. Ulmann asked, looking around. “Uh… Nikki. Uh, I mean, Lizzy~”
Carris sat back down, keeping her head as low as possible. She pushed some hair in front of her face hoping to stay hidden. She peeked over toward Derick, who just smiled at her with an assuring wink. Spike and the other girls spotted this right away, immediately realizing what was going on.
“Girls,” Spike spoke up. “I think Carrie has a crush on that boy.”
“I reckon so,” Applejack nodded. “He’s got a name?”
“I did hear someone speak his name in passing,” Twilight confirmed. “Derick… Collins…”
Me: "Hmmmm...I know I've seen this movie when I was a kid...and traumatized, as a result...but I don't remember him...well, here's hoping he can...help..."
11116871 If we can dispense with the political talk, that would be very much appreciated.
But yes... it's nice to see Carrie having a new circle of friends. It's just a matter of how Twilight & her friends will be able to help when the whole thing suddenly erupts like a raging volcano. You can only push someone weak and helpless for so long until it completely backfires.
Despite the stress and horror that came from their meeting with Eden's Gate face-to-face, let it not be said that this would be enough to scare the Mane Six (Or Spike) away from their mission. They swore that they would be there for Carrie to protect her from this group's wrath, and that is a promise they are sticking with. And sure enough, just as Carrie starts to feel she has nothing but her new power to be with her, the group are there to show her that somewhere in the world are folk who'd want to be her friends and don't care how different she is. But they're not the only ones drawing attention toward Carrie, as that Collins guy has been making a few moves on the girl himself. Even inviting her to come to the compound to hang with his friends.
As for the matter of Sue, by this point the person we assume to be just another 'mean girl' actually starts to develop a more sympathetic side. She suddenly feels horrible for the way Carrie was treated by her hands as well as her friends (Chris being the worst). Though she can't convey a reason as to 'why' she was so rash in the first place, least she's not like Chris. For refusing to face the consequences of her own actions, she cost herself her additional learning at school as well as a chance of going to prom. But something tells me that this is 'far' from settled.
It sucks that the girls still have no magic at the time, but at least they are still trying to help Carrie.
11115681
Until they are able to harness their abilities again, they'll have to keep to their wits. Sometimes to get things done it takes more than having magical abilities. Course that's the funny thing about powers, you never really appreciate having them until you find yourself unable to use them. But just because they neither have their magic or super strength or ability to fly, does not mean they don't have the means of being able to solve this dilemma. So long as they got each other, they'll do just fine.
11115683
That is true.
This will turn south fast.
Lets hope Twilight and company can help her.
And try to get the cuffs off. But then again it might be a specific kind of cuffs that cannot be removed that easily and requires a special kind of key. If I remember my old folklore stories of mythological and magical studies.
11115688
Most likely things will go bad.
And the thing with the situation Twilight & company is that it's not so much the 'cuffs' that are the problem. As stated, it's the stones that they put 'in' the cuffs that are going to be the big problem. There're the ones of which are somehow causing a disruption to the connection to the magic that surrounds the group. As long as the stones themselves are active, they're limited to what they can do. If they want their powers back, it's going to take quite a force to disrupt the energy that power's the stones in order to be truly free.
11115696
If what you say is true, King Sombra is in the area.
He is the only one who uses those stones
11115698
We can neither confirm nor deny 'any' theories you make. In the end, it's up to Mr. Enigma to determine the source.
11115699
You're right, we'll see what Mr. E will tell us
Yeah moving out of the motel is the best bet given that Eden's Gate has already kidnapped and dumped them back in twice now. Gets into that whole "we've got people everywhere" paranoia. So cool they now got Sue as an ally.
Completely forgot that Chris' group called themselves Ultras in the remake. Can imagine some tokusatsu fans who would argue "the heck you are" to that. I do also seem to remember Margaret having a day job but completely forgot about it. Laundromat worker apparently. Would also think any school committee would raise an eye at a regular gym exercise being called a "suicide" probably preferring the term that's less dodgy, but it has been shown the school in Carrie does have its share of flaws. Though Miss Dejardin does have some positive traits otherwise.
11115696
Fair enough, and oh so very true.
11115702
No sense staying at a joint that Eden's Gate know that the girls and Spike had been staying in for quite some time. Still and all, Eden's Gate do have spies 'everywhere' and so naturally the group will have to be very careful moving forward. But at least it's a good thing they've managed to find a friend from the most unlikely of places.
Though I'll say this much about the 'Ultras'. Apparently they don't truly have this 'stick together' policy as when one of their members (Essentially the meanest of them all) ends up taking the fall, there's no way they'd willing to stay on that same sinking ship. That prank truly blew up in Chris's face if her own friends would abandon her for prom.
sue's kindness and remorse really shows that she truly wants to make amends to carrie
all i can say for chris though is that karma really stinks
Those must be some special kind of built cuffs if the girls can still drive a car with them.
and run.
and be able to place hands on people's shoulders and do fist-bumps and handshakes.
And normally, people would have noticed that sorta thing. But then i remembered that this is Carrie. So.......
or the cuffs are just invisible to everyone else but them.
11115802
11115815
....oooooh,.....now that makes alot more sense.
Thank you both for the clarification
11115723
That is the difference between bullies like Sue and Chris.
Deep down, Sue truly does show remorse and wants to make amends. But only acts like a bully on those weaker than herself because she's mostly following what the group does, specifically one led by Chris. If Sue even 'thinks' about not taking part in their activities, she removes herself from the popular group. So much pressure is weighing in on her that she feels...trapped as much as Carrie feels around her mother.
As for Chris, indeed karma really stinks for her. Why she chooses to act so rashly against Carrie well even then it's barely explained. She just seems like those kids who get off on bullying for no reason other than the enjoyment of watching others suffer. Sadly, there are people like this in the world and no matter how often they get called off for the pain they put upon their community, they see no reason to change their ways. Like no matter how much trouble they get in, they still feel they'll get away and everything done against them is all for naught. Some humans are just incapable of changing their ways, even if that's the 'one' change we wouldn't mind happening.

i agree. some bullies and villains never change and it only gets worse for them until eventually they receive their eternal punishment
I'm loving this

We are most pleased to hear that you are. Still got a long ways to go with this project. But we've got tons of surprises lined up for later chapters.
I'm surprised that the cult just let them go. I honestly thought they were going to be locked up for brainwashing or something.
Also, I'm probably dumb for asking, but the anti-magic cuffs the Mane 6 have on aren't like sets of handcuffs that are connected with a chain, right? Cause I thought they were when I read the last chapter, but that can't be or they'd be walking around with their wrists stuck together. So, they're more like the cuffs on Genie's wrists in Aladdin, right?

Rainbow Dash's anger keeps coming up, and after looking up some history of our guest villains, I have a bad feeling that Rainbow's gonna get a lecture on her sin is Wrath.
Sucks to suck, Chris!![:scootangel:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/scootangel.png)
OK, good news is they don't have to go back to the date rape motel. Bad news, staying with one of the girls Carrie views as her bullies might cause a conflict with her.
Oh... this is so God damn insidious! Either this kid's a pawn who really has no idea what's going on, or he's helping manipulate her. Though, if he becomes Carrie's love interest, will her mom still object or will the cult bring her in line? Is this Derick guy from the game too?
All in all, awesome chapter and really intrigued on where it could go next.
11115802
The cult definitely have their motivations. Course, they only let them go because it was under Joseph's orders. Joseph wouldn't just let them roam free if he didn't think they could still be of use outside of being locked in a cage. As for the wrists, in a way they're like those wrist chains that are wrapped around that region only they are difficult to pry off. That's a pretty close depiction of what we're attempting to explain.
Perhaps Rainbow's sin may sooner be revealed than we think. And here we were just assuming her sin is sloth.
There could very well be a conflict if Carrie finds out that the group she called 'friends' are staying with one of the bullies who tormented her. If word of that got out, she won't think to trust them (Not even Fluttershy). And that'll make things especially difficult if they don't get the chance to explain why or if Carrie refuses to believe the cult are as worse as her mother.
As for Collins, it remains a mystery where his loyalties tie at this point. On the surface, he seems like a friendly young man trying to offer Carrie a warm hand of friendship. But there's still not a lot we know about him other than he's a member of the cult. Let's just say there's more to him than we as an audience can hardly suspect.
It warms my heart knowing Carrie has close friends like the Mane 6, Collins and Sue looking out for her, Fluttershy being the closest and relates to Carrie more![:yay:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/yay.png)
![:twilightsmile:](https://static.fimfiction.net/images/emoticons/twilightsmile.png)
11115838
Fluttershy and Carrie will definitely get along just swimmingly. This could give the pink-haired lassie a chance to prove herself if Carrie is in grave danger.
11115815
Oh, that's ominous... I LOVE this story!
At least Sue's truly wised up, but Chris is still acting like a victim. But at least the girls and Spike have gotten through to Carrie. Just hope they can keep it up
11115848
Chris at this point is just making up excuses to justify her own issues against her. It's not like Carrie is any more popular than Chris is supposed to be. Why should she need to feel threatened?
My lunch break is over. I gotta get back to my shift.
Be back in a bit!
11115861
No hurry Phantom-Dragon. Take your time!
Take that, Chris, you bitch! Pardon my swearing.
Keep going! This story is really getting good!
BTW, who's Derick Collins?
11116001
An OC portrayed by Cody Christian
11116028
Who played cloud strife in the FF7 remake
11116073
Oh, that guy...
It's normal for Twilight and her friends to distrust Sue after she participated in humiliating Carrie; but with their magic "locked", the need to have as many allies as possible, and with Sue wanting to demonstrate that she really feels bad about what she did, they give her the benefit of the doubt. I'm surprised that I was right in my prediction in the previous chapter and The Mane 6 would stay at Sue's house from now on. The motel is no longer a safe place, and this could be an opportunity to get to know her better.
Speaking of Carrie, the young woman is already more aware of her psychic powers and she is interested in learning to control it. A bad moment, since she is being affected by the teasing of her classmates for the video uploaded about her and by Joseph's words. Luckily, Carrie finds in the Mane 6, Fluttershy especially, what she has always wanted: support, love, faithful friends and someone who understands her pain.
Speaking of support from friends, Chis clearly doesn't have that. After how she spoke to Desjardin, it doesn't surprise me, but what makes my blood boil is that Chris believes that he has done nothing wrong; and not because she isn't aware of the damage and severity of her actions, but because she believes that she can do whatever he wants. But she has made a mistake: Desjardin isn't a classmate that she can intimidate, but a teacher who doesn't tolerate bullying and who isn't willing to back down from threats. Sue takes the first step to her redemption by refusing to support Chris in her protest against Desjardin. Unfortunately, Chris has learned nothing. Her friends already abandoned her when Fluttershy and the rest defended Carrie, and they have done it again now, and that has only increased her desire for revenge against Carrie.

In Grade 7 we did suicide lines in our gymnasium as a warm up session and let me tell you, they were definitely my least favourite excercise!
I didn't chicken out, or anything. I've been balancing out some life issues.
Meanwhile, back at Discord's Theater(s)

Sugarbelle and Big Mac both hugged each other close for comfort, at Applejack's near death experience. Though, Sugarbelle seemed to be strangling Big Mac, throttling him like a ragdoll.

EQG Pinkie Pie: "That's my name! Don't wear it out!"
Everyone in the room, who knows Pinkie Pie well enough, obliged. Though, the Looney Tunes, Tom and Jerry, were still in awe at the pink girl.
Extra Cut
No sooner had the Equestrian Heroes leave, the demonic creature from last night stepped out from behind a tree, with its gleaming eyes dead set on the heroes. Though under the cover of darkness, its rotten teeth gleamed in what little light could shine on its frightening smile, drooling with a mixture of slobber and blood.
It smells of death. It waved its massive hands up, almost as haunting and gauntingly as a tree branch, swaying in the breeze, sending a crow on its way.

Discord: (To EQG Rainbow Dash) "Sweetheart. Don't take this personal. But I think you could use some of Hogwart's Hufflepuff, NOT self-appointed, Professor Discord's patented lecture."
And with that, Discord pulls down a blackboard, as he explains:

After Sunset Shimmer revealed the heart wrenching truth to her young apprentice, and some of the newly arrived Jedi's present, she explains:
Sunset Shimmer: "When I first arrived to this galaxy, I arrived at a bad time, in a bad place. And...everyday, it was a nightmare. And all I could think about was wishing and praying that my friends would come and find me. The only friend I had was Galen Marek...back when he was called 'Starkiller.' He was there for me, every time I was beaten, humiliated, and stomped to the ground, by Palpatine and the Inquisitors. Still, I held onto my hope that...that my friends would find me, and rescue me."
Ben Solo: "And...did they find you, master?"
Sunset Shimmer: (Shakes her head) "No... I waited too long. And...it was all Palpatine needed to trick me into..." (Covers her eyes to hide her tears) "I was tricked into embracing the Dark Side of the Force and...it made me into a...an angry, mindless person, who was obsessed with killing...my friends."
Jedi Younglings: GASPS
C3PO: "Oh goodness gracious! How terrible!"
Ben Solo: "You killed your own friends?!"
Sunset Shimmer: "NO! Thank goodness, no... I was just lucky that Twilight could...snap me back to my senses. And I was fortunate that I had Grand Master Satele Shan, Darth Marr, Valora Synn, and Revan, to help me..." (Clearing her head) "Look, I'm only telling you this because I want you all to understand...not everyone is entirely evil. Most of us were just taught the wrong way, or see the world from a different perspective. And not every Siths are bad either. Even me, Darth Marr, or your grandfather, Ben."
Young Ben Solo tried to comprehend everything is mentor had revealed to him. There were still some unanswered questions, and his head is brimming with questions on more knowledge that Sunset didn't reveal to him fully, from the start. He looked up to his mentor, just as much as he idolizes his late grandfather – Anakin Skywalker a.k.a. Darth Vader.
Sunset Shimmer never once steered him wrong. But all the same, the young Jedi-in-training is still full of questions that would have to be asked later. Right now, they have a movie to watch.
