Worth It
It had begun to snow. Everything around Sunset was quiet, with only the sounds of her sobs catching her ear as she leaned against the railing of that bridge. She felt so cold, and so alone, like nothing would ever make her happy again.
“Hey, miss!”
Sunset didn’t answer or even look up. It was a man in the background calling to a woman near him. She heard footsteps getting closer. Pretty soon, he would pass through her like she wasn’t even there. The footsteps stopped right beside her.
“Hey, miss. Are you ok?”
“No,” Sunset answered automatically as she cried. “Nothing is ok. I don’t know what to do!”
“Do you need help?” asked the voice.
“There’s nothing that can help me now!” Sunset said, shaking her head. “How can I ever-”
At once, Sunset’s tear-stained eyes shot open, and she slowly lifted her head to face the man beside her. He was clearly looking at her! Could it be?
“Wait. C-c-can you see me?” she asked with a shaking voice.
“Well, yeah I can see you,” he answered concernedly.
“A-and,” Sunset continued, daring to hope, “you can hear me?”
“Yeah,” he replied. “I was walking by and heard someone crying, so I came up to- hey! You got some blood on your head! Do you need a doctor?”
It was at that moment that Sunset realized that the throbbing had returned to the side of her head! The snow was landing on her body, and it was making her cold! She reached a hand up to her head where Gilda had thrown the rock, and it hurt upon contact! And when she pulled her hand back, her fingers had spots of blood on them! All Sunset could do was start to laugh.
“My head’s bleeding!” she exclaimed to the man as if she had just won the lottery. “I’m cold, and my feet hurt from walking!” The man looked at her like she had three heads, but Sunset didn’t mind! “I’m back!” she joyously cried out. “I’m alive! Oh thank you, God! Thank you, thank you, tha-” She suddenly stopped as a fresh thought entered her mind.
“Sir!” she addressed the man, who jumped like she was going to rob him. “What day is it?”
“Um…uh…” the man stuttered, still not sure how to take the situation before him, “it’s…December 19th.”
“The 19th!” Sunset snapped, making the guy jump again. “There’s still time! I have to go!” And with that, she was off like a rocket, only stopping to say to the man, “Thank you, sir! And Merry Christmas!”
Sunset faintly heard the man say, “Merry Christmas, I guess,” before hurrying down the street, a new life within her that she hadn’t felt in a bit. She only had one destination in mind, and she didn’t want to waste any more time. If she remembered correctly, she heard them talking about going to Rarity’s house to hang. Feeling newly determined, Sunset dashed down the sidewalk, reminding herself that she had to weave between people now. How funny, she thought. It took her so long to get used to being able to phase, and now, she had to get used to being solid again. All she could do was laugh again as she ran. She was back, and she wasn’t going to throw in the towel this time!
Finally, huffing and puffing, she stopped in front of Rarity’s house. While before she was feeling elated, now she was nervous. She knew what she had to do, but would they let her do it, given their emotional state? Their true feelings are in there somewhere, she thought. Taking a deep breath, she walked up the stone path to the door, her heart now racing. She then reached a shaking hand up and knocked on the door. It was now or never.
From inside the house, she heard Rarity saying, “I’ll get it.” Sunset felt herself trembling even more, and tried to take a few more calming breaths as she heard Rarity’s footsteps drawing closer. She heard the turning of the knob, the door creaked open, and Rarity stood before her.
“Can I-” she started to say before seeing it was Sunset. Immediately, her expression changed. “What do you want?” she asked harshly.
“I just want to talk with everyone,” Sunset responded hastily.
“Well we don’t want to talk to you,” said Rarity as she started to close the door. “Now if you’ll excuse us-”
“Please, Rarity!” Sunset said desperately right before the door shut. “Just five minutes with all of you. That’s all I ask. Please!” Rarity looked at Sunset for a minute as if expecting foul play, but finally sighed and opened the door again.
“Come in.”
When Sunset stepped into the warm foyer, Rarity said nothing but closed the door behind her and beckoned her forward. Sunset followed her down the hall, her heart racing again. If that was how Rarity reacted to seeing her, it was a safe bet Sunset knew how the others would react. As they got closer to the living room, Sunset heard the upbeat voice of Pinkie, and quietly sighed with relief that she could hear her laughing again. When Rarity stepped back into the living room, Sunset then heard Rainbow say, “Hey, Rarity. Who was at the-” but her words died from her throat when she saw Sunset enter after her. All eyes turned and widened at the sight of her, and just as Sunset predicted, the others’ faces, especially Rainbow’s and Applejack’s, had gone sour.
“What’s she doing here?!” Rainbow asked, staring daggers at Sunset.
“She wants to talk to us,” Rarity answered bluntly.
“Well we don’ wanna talk with her!” snapped Applejack.
“That’s what I told her.”
“Please,” Sunset hastily interrupted. If she didn’t speak now, they would surely try and throw her out. “I know that I’m the last person you want to see right now-”
“Oh my!” Fluttershy suddenly squeaked, and all eyes turned to her. She actually looked concerned as she pointed at Sunset. “What happened to your head?” The others looked back at Sunset, and seemed to just notice the trail of red on the side of her face. Applejack’s expression even seemed to soften a bit as she too looked mildly concerned.
“It’s nothing,” Sunset said.
“What do you mean nothing?” Pinkie gasped. “It’s bleeding!”
“Someone threw a rock at me,” Sunset explained nonchalantly, “but that’s not important right now.” Pinkie gasped again, while Fluttershy and Rarity placed a hand over their mouth. Even Rainbow’s eyes had gone wide for a second, but just as quickly, she and Applejack regained their stony, untrusting demeanor. Still nervous, Sunset continued. “Just give me five minutes to talk. Then, if you want, I’ll never bother you guys again. Please!”
Sunset watched as the Rainbooms looked around at each other, checking for their reaction. Rainbow and Applejack still looked like they didn’t want to hear her, and Rarity seemed stony-faced, Pinkie was looking more sad than angry, as if she didn’t want to stay suspicious of Sunset. The look gave Sunset hope. As for Fluttershy, her expression had softened much after seeing Sunset’s wound and, while she wasn’t looking at Sunset, she wasn’t wearing a scowl. Sunset looked back at Applejack, who Sunset knew would be the hardest to convince, with her fingers crossed behind her back.
After another glance at each of friends, and no one raised any objections, Applejack sighed and nodded to Sunset.
“Five minutes,” she grumbled. “Go.”
Relieved, Sunset took another calming breath, and began.
“When I first came to Canterlot High from Equestria,” she said, “I was a horrible person. I was in a dark place, bullying others, driving apart friendships, and, yeah, turning into a raging she-demon.” Rainbow gave a small scoff at this, but Sunset ignored her. “After Twilight gave me a second chance, I felt as though I didn’t deserve friendship after what I had done. But then you guys took me in. Whether against your better wishes, I don’t know, but you still took me in, and I started feeling more happy than I had in a long time.” As she spoke, Fluttershy had finally turned to look at Sunset, and it looked like she was actually interested in listening.
“Then, after the Battle of the Bands, and you guys fully accepted me into your lives, it was like a missing piece of my heart was filled in, and I became whole. For the first time in years, I felt like I finally found my home.” Now it was Rarity whose expression softened when Sunset said this. Out of the corner of Sunset’s eye, she thought she had seen Rarity give a small smile out of the corner of her mouth.
“Three minutes,” Rainbow piped in, looking at her watch.
“Look,” Sunset continued, “I could try and plead my case with you guys and tell you that I’m not Anon-a-Miss, but I don’t think that’ll work anymore. This whole thing with Anon-a-Miss has hurt all of us in different ways. But I’m not giving up on us!” At this, Fluttershy and Pinkie straightened up a bit and looked at Sunset even more intently. “I know that somewhere inside you guys, you remember all of the wonderful times we’ve had. Well those times are treasured in my heart forever as well! That’s why I’m not going to stop trying to win you guys back! And if that means I have to start at the bottom again and earn you guys’ trust back little by little, then so be it! I’ve learned that this friendship is more than worth fighting for. You guys are more than my friends; you're my family.”
When she had finally finished, Sunset ended with a great sigh as she looked at the Rainbooms. It was clear that Sunset’s words did make a difference with some of them, looking at Pinkie and Fluttershy. Rarity seemed to be on the fence, and looked unsure now. The issue, it seemed, was with Rainbow and Applejack. Sunset knew there would probably be more problems with them, from what she had seen in the school cafeteria. While their faces didn’t look angry anymore, they still looked at Sunset like she was going to backstab them at any moment. Though Sunset could’ve thought she had seen the slightest trace of remorse in Applejack’s eyes when she, Sunset, had mentioned remembering the good times they had shared.
After another few seconds of silence, Applejack gave a frustrated sigh and said, “You done?”
“Yeah,” Sunset mumbled.
“Well thank you for telling us that,” Applejack said in an unsympathetic tone before adding, “Now get out.”
Fluttershy glanced towards Applejack, and Sunset could see sudden harshness in her eyes. Pinkie and Rarity gasped slightly, and Rainbow didn’t react at all, but continued to look at Sunset, who nodded understandingly.
“Ok,” she said miserably, for she had a notion that this was how it was going to go. And yet, it still made her sad to leave. Taking one last look at the Rainbooms, she smiled weakly and said, “Goodbye, guys. Merry Christmas.” She then turned around and started out of the living room.
“Wait!”
Sunset stopped. Her heart started racing again, for she knew that soft voice. Turning back around at the edge of the room, she saw Fluttershy had gotten up. The others were looking at her surprised as well. Fluttershy stepped slowly towards Sunset, and Sunset could see that her eyes were glistening. When she had gotten right in front of her, Fluttershy stopped, looked at Sunset from top to bottom as if x-raying her, and then smiled.
“Sunset,” she said warmly, “I believe you.” At that moment, Sunset’s insides warmed up like a mug of hot cocoa. Applejack, on the other hand, had a different reaction.
“Fluttershy! What’re you-”
At once, Fluttershy whipped back around, pointed at Applejack, and snapped, “No, listen to me!” Applejack immediately closed her mouth, eyes wide with shock. Everyone else looked surprised too at Fluttershy’s sudden burst of emotion. “I’ve had my doubts since the beginning about Sunset being Anon-a-Miss,” she said boldly to the others. “But I went along with you guys because I was afraid that if I sided with her, you guys would abandon me too!”
“Fluttershy, darling!” Rarity gasped, placing a hand over her heart. “We would never abandon you!”
“We abandoned Sunset!” Fluttershy retorted. Rarity opened her mouth again, but no comeback came to her. Fluttershy looked at the others again, who still looked unsure. “Come on, you guys!” she continued. “Sunset came here to tell us that she’s not giving up, and she’s willing to start at the bottom again if that means being our friend! Why would she say all of this if she was Anon-a-Miss?”
“She’s a good-” Rainbow started, but Fluttershy cut her off almost immediately.
“Stop saying she’s a good actress!” she said angrily. “I hate that excuse! It’s the only excuse we’ve had, and it doesn’t hold up! Well, if Sunset’s brave enough to come here and say that to us, then I should be brave enough too!” She then marched over to Sunset’s side, and planted her feet firmly on the ground. “I’m standing with Sunset!”
The four other Rainbooms stared wide-eyed at Fluttershy, almost like they couldn’t believe what had just happened. Fluttershy, meanwhile, didn’t show any remorse for what she had said. On the contrary, she looked at Sunset again and smiled. It was there that Sunset knew it was definitely genuine.
“Fine!” Rainbow snapped after a second of stunned silence. “If you wanna get hurt again, that’s up to you!” She then pointed to the door. “You can both go!”
“Wait a minute!”
Now it was Pinkie who stood up, looking at Rainbow like she couldn’t believe what she had just heard. “You just confirmed Fluttershy’s fear, Rainbow! You’re abandoning her with Sunset!”
“No I’m-”
“What’s next?” Pinkie angrily interrupted. “Are we going to ignore her at school too? Not sit with her at lunch? Treat her like she doesn’t exist?” When neither Rainbow nor Applejack answered, Pinkie huffed loudly and said, “Well then, you’ll just have to abandon me too,” she then walked over to Sunset’s other side as the others looked on with open mouths, “cause I’m also sticking with Sunset!” Despite the tense situation, Sunset couldn’t help but smile slightly at Pinkie’s words.
“Pinkie!” Rainbow and Applejack said in shocked unison.
“I didn’t want to think Sunset was guilty this whole time,” Pinkie boldly added before turning to the remaining three. “Don’t you think she deserves the benefit of the doubt, even after everything we had been through?”
“No, she doesn’t!” Applejack said stubbornly. Rainbow just shook her head. Meanwhile, as all this was going on, Fluttershy had suddenly taken out her phone, and when she looked at the screen, went wide-eyed.
“Guys,” she said with a cracked voice, still looking at her phone. No one had heard her.
“Rarity?” Pinkie asked, looking at the fashionista with pleading eyes. “What do you think?” AJ and Rainbow looked at her too, and saw Rarity once again looking unsure.
“Well…” she muttered.
“Rarity!” Rainbow snapped.
“Well,” Rarity said again, “maybe there is room for doubt. We were rathy hasty with our accusation.”
“After everything we’ve seen?” Applejack spat at Rarity. “Yer crazy!”
Rarity, clearly affronted, gasped in response. “That was uncalled for, Applejack!”
“Guys.”
“I don’t get it, Applejack!” Pinkie groaned loudly. “Do you want Sunset to be Anon-a-Miss?”
“Of course Ah don’t,” AJ replied, sounding almost offended, “but-”
“Then why don’t you just believe her?” Pinkie asked.
“Ah thinkin’ practical!” AJ snapped frustratedly. “There’s not enough evidence to say she’s not Anon-a-Miss!”
“There’s not enough evidence to say she is Anon-a-Miss!” Rarity chimed in, sounding hurt.
“GUYS!!”
“What, Fluttershy?” all four Rainbooms shouted, finally turning to Fluttershy, who still had her phone out.
“Anon-a-Miss just made a new post!” Fluttershy said at last. At once, all of the Rainbooms’ eyes widened and their mouths dropped.
“What?!” they all gasped.
Slowly, Fluttershy raised the phone up with the screen facing out, showing everyone a photo posted by Anon-a-Miss of a younger Trixie in a bunny suit captioned, More like the Fluffy and Pathetic Trixie, am I right? The upload time showed over 1 minute ago. Rarity, Rainbow, and Applejack stood there, completely at a loss for words. Sunset, however, was filled with inner elation. The CMC must’ve not known that she was here, or else they wouldn’t have made such a rookie mistake. In turn, each one of the girls looked up to face Sunset, their faces still stunned.
“B-but…” Rainbow stuttered, “Sunset’s been right here the whole time.”
“And not on her phone at all,” Rarity gasped
“That can only mean…” Pinkie said slowly, a large, Pinkie-like grin spreading across her face. No one had to finish that sentence, for Fluttershy’s delighted squeal finished everyone’s conjoined realization.
“Sunset isn’t Anon-a-Miss!”
Sunset was suddenly forced backward a bit as Fluttershy flung her arms around her in a tight hug as she cried joyously, “I knew it! I just knew it!” Looking through the onslaught of Fluttershy’s hair, Sunset saw that Rarity, Rainbow, and Applejack seemed to be still trying to process the revelation. Pinkie was smiling from ear to ear and looking so relieved. The sight couldn’t help but make Sunset smile.
“Oh, Sunset, I’m so, so sorry!” Fluttershy said after finally letting go of Sunset, tears flowing down her face. “I should’ve stood by you from the start, but I-”
“I know,” Sunset cut in as she wiped away Fluttershy’s tears. “It’s ok, Fluttershy. I forgive you.” Fluttershy beamed just as Sunset was pulled into another hug. This time, bone-breaking, from her bubbly, pink friend.
“Got room for another one to forgive, Sunny?” Pinkie asked tearfully. “I’m really sorry for taking away your laughter. I promise I’ll never do it again!”
“I forgive you too, Pinkie!” Sunset gasped, finding it hard to breathe in Pinkie’s embrace. Once she let go though, Sunset gave Pinkie a friendly pat on the back, making her friend squee.
“Sunset, darling,” Rarity said nervously as she walked forward a bit. “I-I feel like a complete fool! It was unfair of me to accuse you. I should’ve known better.” Tears started to drip down Rarity’s cheeks this time, causing little, black streaks to appear. Hastily, Rarity pulled out an embroidered handkerchief from her pocket and wiped her eyes clean. “I’m terribly sorry. Can you ever forgive me?”
“Of course I can, Rarity!” Sunset answered instantly, making Rarity smile as well. Then, it was Rainbow’s turn. At first, she didn’t say anything, but walked up to Sunset and looked her straight in the eye. Sunset looked back, not blinking, and hoping that she finally believed, for her face was unreadable. Finally, she gave a loud sigh, and hugged Sunset.
“Some element of loyalty I turned out to be; abandoning you at the first sign of trouble,” she said regretfully. “Man, I’m sorry, Sunset.” A loud sniff told Sunset that Rainbow was trying to hold back tears. When she spoke next, her voice was shaky. “I w-was so s-s-stupid.” Sunset broke the hug to look into Rainbow’s tear-stained eyes. She had never seen Rainbow cry in front of her before. Somehow, this was all the proof that Sunset needed that she wasn’t sincere.
Smiling again, Sunset reformed the hug between the two of them and said, “It’s ok, Rainbow.” That, apparently, was enough for Rainbow to let go of all barriers, and she started sobbing into Sunset’s shoulder. As Sunset rocked her back and forth, Pinkie, Rarity, and Fluttershy were all shedding happy tears as well. When Sunset looked up at them though, she realized that there was one left. Breaking the hug again, Sunset turned to Applejack, who was still standing as stiff as a board, a shocked look on her face.
“Applejack?” Rarity said, snapping Applejack out of her trance. “Still not convinced?”
“Well…uh…” Applejack muttered, looking around in every direction her eyes could go. “Y’know she…she might…Ah don’...” Every attempt to disprove the evidence before her AJ had couldn’t even be dignified. And then, after another minute of stuttering around, Applejack gave a great sigh, ripped the hat off of her head, and sat down on the chair, not looking at the others.
“What am I doin’?” she asked more of herself than her friends. “Am Ah really that stubborn that even now Ah don’ wanna admit when Ah’m wrong? My parents would be so ashamed of me. Heck, I’m ashamed of me!” She then stood up, wringing her hat in her hands, and finally looked at Sunset, and in her eyes, there too were tears. “Sunset, Ah’m so, so sorry,” she said as she walked forward. “Ah guess a part of me deep down wanted to believe you wouldn’t do this, but Ah was jus’ so angry, and embarrassed, and hurt that Ah jus’-”
“Let your emotions control your actions?” Sunset finished for her. “Trust me, AJ; I get it.” And, for the first time since before Anon-a-Miss happened, Applejack smiled at her. Wiping the tears from her eyes, AJ walked in front of Sunset as well and held out an arm.
“So…are we good?” she said hopefully.
In another life, Sunset would’ve done nothing but remember all of the harsh words that Applejack had said about her, and reject the apology of her and the others. But Clark didn’t give Sunset a second chance to be bitter. No more harsh thoughts came to her head as she looked at Applejack, smiling and hoping for her own second chance. More than happy to give it, Sunset took her hand and shook it. “Of course we are.”
Then, in a swift motion, Applejack pulled Sunset towards her, and turned the handshake into a loving hug. With no more hesitancy between them, Sunset returned the hug, and said to the others, ”It’s like I said; you guys are more than my friends. You’re my family, and I love you guys.”
“Oh, Sunset,” Fluttershy said happily, wiping her eyes. “We love you too!”
“And we promise,” Rarity sniffled, “if something like this ever happens again, we will always give you the benefit of the doubt!”
“That’s right!” Rainbow nodded. “No more doubts, no more suspicions.”
“Innocent until proven guilty,” said Applejack, breaking the hug to look at Sunset. “As it should’ve been from the start.”
Now it was Sunset who felt her eyes start to swell up, and with no way to stop them, happy tears streamed down her cheeks as she said, “Thanks, guys.”
“GROUP HUG!” Pinkie cried. And within a second, all five girls were huddled around Sunset, laughing, crying, and saying things Sunset couldn’t even hear. But it didn’t matter to her. The miserable, lonely feeling she had at the beginning of this whole thing was washed away with the loving words and hugs from her friends. Gosh, it felt good to say that, thought Sunset. Her friends. These girls were her best friends, and now, once again, Sunset was home!
After what seemed like an hour, the girls slowly broke the hug, still smiling from ear to ear. That is, until Rainbow’s grin faltered a bit as she said, “Well that’s one problem down, but there’s still another one.”
“Rainbow’s right!” Rarity gasped, clapping her hands with realization. “Anon-a-Miss is still out there somewhere! We have to find them! We have to put a stop to this!”
“Actually, guys,” Sunset interjected, feeling the nervousness grow inside her again. She was afraid this part would come up sooner than later, but it had to be done before any more damage was done. “I may have an idea of who it is.” The Rainbooms’ ears perked up at this statement, and all eyes fell on Sunset.
“You do?” Fluttershy asked. “Who is it?”
Sunset hesitated at first. How would they react to her accusing their own sisters? “Well, you guys probably won’t like what I have to say. You might even yell at me for suggesting such a-”
“Now waitaminute, sugarcube!” AJ interrupted, placing a hand on Sunset’s shoulder, and looking at her with serious eyes. “We’re not the same idiots as before!”
“Yeah!” Rainbow agreed. “We’re not gonna break our promise seconds after we made it! We’re different now!”
When Sunset still looked unsure, Rarity stepped forward. “Sunset, whatever you have to say, we’ll hear you out, and no matter how far-fetched it may sound, we’ll trust you. Right, girls?” The others nodded vigorously in unison. Maybe it was the sincerity of what her friends said, but Sunset felt more confident of telling them without repercussions.
“Ok,” she said, and taking a deep breath, she turned to Rarity. “Is Sweetie Belle here?”
Looking rather taken aback, Rarity answered, “Well, yes. She’s up in her room having a slumber party with Apple Bloom and Scootaloo. Why?” So they were all here, Sunset thought. That makes sense. Sorry, CMC, but it’s for your own good.
“You might want to check on her,” she said before adding, “quietly.” Rarity looked confusedly at the others, but shrugged and started towards the stairs. “The rest of you come too,” Sunset added to the others, who followed Rarity. As per Sunset’s instructions, the five made their way up the stairs, making as little noise as possible. When Rarity had made it to the top, Sunset whispered, “And Rarity?” The fashionista turned around. “Don’t knock before you open the door.” When Rarity and the others looked at Sunset with raised eyebrows, Sunset could only think of one thing to say.
“Trust me.”
Don't touch that dial! There's one more chapter to see! Coming to fimfic before New Years! And Merry Christmas!

See, my problem with this kind of stories lies with the so called "angel". Whatever their name is in all the adaptations I've seen. Clark, in this case, never acted out of pure altruism. If getting his wings wasn't on the line, he wouldn't have given Sunset's suicide attempt a second thought. He even said something like "if you keep thinking like that, I won't get my wings!". That's called manipulation, and it's not exactly something healthy to do to a person in Sunset's mindstate.
This has nothing to do with the story itself, but the reason I hated the Anon-A-Miss comic (and why I don't normally like stories based on it) is because the Rainbooms are absolute assholes, especially in that one scene where they leave Sunset bawling her eyes out in the middle of the hallway, and YET it's on Sunset to fix their relationship. She shouldn't have been the one to try one last time there, and she shouldn't be the one to try one last time in here either. (And boy, Twilight's advice in the comic is absolute hogwash isn't it? Like, she could've offered Sunset to spend the holidays with her or something).
That said, your story, while carrying the issues I've listed above, is pretty well done. Some grammar mistakes here and there, but nothing too big. You captured their personalities pretty well (which I still can't decide whether it's a good or a bad thing). Speaking of the whole travel to the future thing, I've always liked to think it wasn't a real time travel, but an illusion. Especially with how dark things got in chapter three! Talk about escalating quickly!
Overall, I liked it, and I'll read the last chapter as soon as I see it. Although it's pretty easy to guess how it'll end, I always like me some wholesome snuggling.
Merry Christmas to you as well, Teyeson

I know what you mean about the comic. Beautiful art aside, I thought it was a very mean-spirited comic. Especially the CMC cause all of that disvord and, like you said, the girls just abandoning Sunset.
And of course there was the fact that the girls, oh I don't know, NEVER APOLOGIZED TO SUNSET IN THE END! They showed the sisters making up, why not include the girls apologizing to Sunset?
Well, seems that second chances are happening all around.
Phew, that went better than I thought it would. Cannot say the same for the cmc.

Plus the future he showed the girls never forgave sunset until they found out she was dead. They were still ready to believe right up until her death that she was guilty and even though they were going to talk with her they still believed she was guilty so the fact that the girls got the opposite of they wanted for their little stunt doesn't move me. They knew they were doing something wrong they just wanted revenge more and didn't want to care about those they hurt. The rainbooms having to realize trust and and giving someone a fair trial is important and not just because you killed your friend by throwing her away.
I can't wait to see how thie ends. I am on pins and needles waiting.
This chapter managed to captivate me, The way how Sunset and The Rainbooms apologize was very profound (despite the stubbornness of AJ and RD), So I tell you that was amazing
I can't understand how could I've missed this fic. I'm such a moron!
It's brilliant and you catched the message of the movie within your story. My congratulations to you, and I can't wait to read what happens next.
I feel like the climax should have been on Christmas Day but I get it. You need time to come up with an ending.
Yeah, no. I stand by what I said in the previous chapter. These people are not her friends, or at least not AJ and RD. Really only Shy has anything like a believable excuse, but it just makes her words all the crueler for it. The Rainbooms, especially AJ and RD, learned nothing from when they split the first time. There’s no reason to assume they will now.
“Sunset has an accomplice!”
Obviously the audience knows she didn't do it but that's pretty shaky evidence of her innocence when she worked with Snips and Snails in the first movie.
Good story, but moves too fast. Not a fan when forgiveness comes too fast.
