Taking place a week after Sunset's memories returned, the CMC and Flash find themselves face to face with non other than Sunset whose set up a meeting with the four to discuss the event's that have occurred and the outcome of it all and how it impacted not only her but the four of em as well.
It was 2 minutes till 9am on a snowfilled Monday morning. Which also mark's the first week of winterbreak for the student's at CHS. The street's are filled with passersby who were all filled with holiday spirit at the joy of Christmas arriving another week, with some overjoying that they have a few week's off of school to spend time with their friend's and family this holiday season. Many are scene this early in the morning doing some shopping, picking out their Christmas tree's, window shopping in various stores hoping to receive what they view to appear underneath the tree on Christmas morning, etc. However four sophomore girl's are seen not in the holiday spirit as they nervously make their way to their destination Sucarcube Cafe. One of the girl's look's at her phone to reread the message she had received last Friday from a familiar fire haired girl whom have given her asking for a private meeting between her and her friends at exactly 9am Monday morning. rereading this message secretly brought chill's not only her but the other two's spines at the thought of what they were expecting to here from her.
These are the CMC aka The Canterlot High Movie Club which consisted of Apple bloom ( Now fully walking again), Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo.
As they near close to their destination the three girl's continued to act nervously even thought they were advised not to act so nervous by the one girl whom they almost destroyed emotionally.....................Sunset Shimmer. After receiving the new's from their sister's that Sunset's memory returned the three of em have been filled with nothing but fear at the thought of what she was gonna do to them, especially since they were the perpetrators of the whole Anon a Miss incident.
But after learning that Sunset forgave their sister's brought them some hope. But they knew deep down it wasn't gonna be easy for them. after Apple bloom received the text from her sister about Sunset's memory recovering and the message Sunset sent to her after reconciling with the Rainboom's surprised her immensely. She questioned herself as to why Sunset would even talk to her and sounded calm and collected throughout the whole text conversation last Saturday especially since Anon a Miss was her idea in the first place. It's as if she left behind all her anger and acted like it never happened in the first place. But also joining them was their friend Silver spoon who also brought some hope into them.
After a a long trek the four girl's reached their destination right on time. They stared into the entrance door of the cafe afraid to open it and find Sunset's face at the end of it. The three of em feared and pictured how the conversation was gonna go down. Would Sunset ask to punch each of em to make em even? Spread their deepest darkest secret's as vengeance? Or worst of all choosing to not forgive them and forbid them from going anywhere near their older sisters? Despite each of them proudly commenting many months ago from their conversation with Silver spoon about how they will stay strong for Sunset to prove how sorry they are. Deep down they knew it wasn't gonna be as easy as they pictured and they knew there was gonna be some choice word's handed to them during the whole conversation. They continued to stare at the entrance at what felt like 10 minutes until one of em spoke.
"Well, this is it guy's" Apple Bloom said nervously.
"Yeah" Scoots replied just as nervous.
"Time to face Sunset" Sweetie Bell also replied even more nervously.
"Come on guy's stop acting like someones gonna kill you" Silver spoon cut in.
"Sorry Spoon's we cant help it" Scoots replied. "Sunset's got her memory back, she remembers EVERYTHING, how can we not act nervous?"
"Didn't you say nine month's ago that you quote " Even if I have to tie her to a chair, I will let her know how sorry I am" ? Silver spoon said.
"I know Spoon's" Scoots replied. " But I wasn't expecting her to get her memories back so soon especially on the same month when the dreaded incident happened"
"Exactly" Sweetie bell cut in." Who know's what she's gonna do to us? We're pretty much the one's who nearly ruined her life, what's stopping her from doing whatever vengeful thing to us after we almost took her life away from her?"
"Yup, hell I wouldn't blame her if she hogties me to the rear bumper of her motorcycle as she drives to speed in the crowded highway" Apple Bloom said rather scared." After all Anon a Miss was my bright idea so it's pretty much what I deserve"
"Or worse" Scootaloo replied slightly scared." What if she tells the Celestia from her world about what we did and she teleports us to equestria where we'll be imprisoned for the rest of our lives, to never see our friends and families ever again as we rot in our jail cell's as we continue to count the number of days we'll never spend with our sister's with Sunset loving them and not us. And maybe she'll pop in once in a while to remind us about what filthy, disgusting, despicable, self centered, irritating, selfish, bratty, bitchy, evil.....................................
"GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Silver spoon interrupted shocking the three.
"For the love of god, please calm down!" She continued trying to calm herself. " Look I know you all are nervous, but you guy's knew this day would come someday. So instead of acting scared and nervous, you should think about what your gonna say to Sunset. I know it's not gonna be easy for you three but deep down Sunset knows you guy's are truly sorry for what you've done to her, and your sister's know as well. Look back at what they've said to you guy's, if she forgave them then it's not to late for you three. Remember what I said months ago to you guy's , even if she doesn't fully forgive you guy's right away it's never too late to try and make it up to her. you guy's gotta be strong not only for Sunset but for your sisters as well, It's never too late for second chances girl's I know you guy's can do it"
After her little speech the three girl's looked at each other wondering how the conversation is gonna go down and what hope or miracle would come their way as they talked to Sunset, letting her know how sorry each of them were for what they've done . They knew they had to be strong, but deep down they knew it wasn't gonna be easy. Especially with the thought of what to expect to come out of sunset's mouth during the upcoming conversation. But the word's of encouragement they received not only from spoon's 8 month's ago , and from their sisters yesterday began to play in their head's....................................
"Sure Sunset was pissed off at you guy's for framing her and your sisters for abandoning her and not hearing her out ,but deep down she knows you guy's are truly sorry for what you've done to her, she was just too upset and betrayed to admit it. I know you guy's regret everything you've done just like me and I know it's never too late for second chances. Now I cant guarantee that she'll forgive you guy's right away or even your sister's especially since they literally took her memories away but the least you guy's could do is try and make up for it, even if it takes a long time sunset will forgive you guy's someday and your sister's too. So if her memories do return one day no matter how angry she'll be, be prepared to give the biggest and the most sincerest apologies in the world, and that goes for your sister's and Flash Sentry too"
"Look Squirt It's ok to be a little scared. Believe me there were moment's in my life were I was actually pretty scared myself. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't give up and walk away like a coward. You gotta be strong and face your fear's, otherwise the pain and guilt with stick with you for the rest of your life. I know Sunset will probably be a little pissed at you three at first, but if she can forgive us, then it's not too late for you three as well. And whatever happens I will will always be by your side no matter what lil sis"
"Sweetie belle do you remember what mother taught us when we were little? A lady should always be polite and give him or her their undivided attention. And that's what you should do to sunset, I know it might be hard to look her straight in the eye. But you have to give her your undivided attention throughout the entire conversation cause you need to hear everything she has to say to you, she might be a little angry at you Sweetie but she doesn't hate you, but whatever she has to say to you, listen to every word she say's cause you have to show her that you do care for her and will listen to her word's. That's how you'll show that your a good person and that you trust her, and I'll be right here for you whatever happens"
"Sugarcube, I'm not gonna lie to you. You and your friend's really messed up not only us but Sunset as well. You spread everyone's secret's, nearly caused a Civil war in the school, and almost ruined our friendship with Sunset. Honestly Ma and Pa would be so disappointed in you if they were alive to see this. But that doesn't mean your a bad person, what you did was wrong but you were still forgiven by not only me, but every one in the entire school. And honestly I don't know how the conversation between you and Sunset is gonna go down, but I have hope for you lil sis. If sunset forgave us then it's not too late for you three, whether or not it end's happily ever after. I want you to promise me that you'll do whatever it takes to make it up to Sunset regardless of the outcome. Like I said when you woke up in the hospital, I will always love you sugarcube, no matter what you've done, so be brave for sunset ok ?"
They knew Spoon's and their sisters were right, they couldn't run from this. They had to face Sunset and hear what she has to say to them. Even if her word's might be hurtful or rather terrifying, they had to give her their undivided attention to show that they trust her. They had to show that they care and regret everything they did to her no matter how hard it's gonna be, after a little while the three of em reached a verdict.
"Thanks Spoon's we really needed that" Apple bloom said.
"Yeah your right, we gotta be brave for sunset even if she's pissed at us. We will show her how sorry we are" Sweetie belle replied with confidence.
"AMEN!!!!!!!!!" Scoots replied proudly." It's time to face our fears and confront sunset Shimmer, we cant run away from this like a bunch of cowards we gotta be strong. By the way, sorry we freaked out earlier Spoon's"
"It's quite alright girl's" Spoons replied with a slight chuckle." If I was in your situation I'd be pretty nervous too, and I'm sorry for yelling"
"Don't be" Scoots replied." We actually needed that to boost our confidence, we gotta be brave for Sunset and we cant act all nervous and cowardly around her"
"Wise word's Scoot's, there is hope for you guy's I just know it" Spoon's said with a proud smile. " Now come on let's not keep sunset waiting any longer"
"You know you don't have to come with us spoons" Apple bloom said.
"Yeah you weren't part of Anon a Miss" Sweetie bell replied.
"No it's fine girl's I want to come. You guy's are my friends now, and whatever happen's to you guy's and Sunset in there I got your backs all the way" Spoon's said.
After her little speech the three girls walked up and brought their friend into a loving group hug which she quickly returned with a warm smile.
"Thanks Spoons" The girl's said in unison.
"No prob girls" Spoon's said trying to hold back tear's of joy.
The group hug then ended as the four again stared into the entrance of Sugarcube cafe.
"Alright, let's do this" Bloom said with confidence as she opened the door and made her way inside with the other three following suit.
The four friends then walked inside the cafe and were surprised to find it surprisingly empty lacking a few customers, what's weird is that this place was usually packed with a few customers early in the morning craving coffee and baked good's to start their day but it practically felt like a ghost town. They surveyed the place to find that sunset was no where to be found, even though she told them to meet her here at exactly 9am. The four wondered if she was running late or just plane out cancelled the meeting altogether. As they continued to wonder where sunset was, one of the main owners of the cafe Mr Cake walked up and greeted the four girl's.
"Good morning girl's, your right on time" Mr Cake greeted.
"Good morning Mr Cake" Apple bloom greeted back." Uh are you sure about that? Cause I don't see Sunset anywhere"
"Don't worry Sunset's coming" He said." She's just running a little late, she meant to text you guy's but it seems she forgot. But she instructed me to rent out the place for an hour for you guy's conversation.
"Oh that explains the quiet atmosphere then" Bloom replied." Well thanks Mr Cake, and also you probably heard what we did last year and how it kinda messed up your business, I'm............
"Hey don't worry about it Apple bloom, all is forgiven" He said in a forgiving tone." Me and my wife are just glad you three are safe"
"Thanks" She said." So do we just sit anywhere and wait for her?"
"Actually sunset set up a special booth for you five" Mr Cake said as he pointed to the booth Sunset set up for each of em.
"Okie Dokie then, thanks Mr Cake" Apple bloom thanked as she and her friend's made their way to the booth, all while Bloom asked herself what he meant by five people cause Sunset wasn't expecting Spoon's to accompany them as well. As they reached the booth they were surprised to find a familiar blue haired boy sitting and waiting there as well.
"Flash?" Scootaloo said.
"Sweetie belle, Scootaloo, Apple bloom, Silver spoon?" Flash replied.
"What are you doing here?" Apple bloom asked.
"Sunset wanted to talk to me" He replied." Wait why are you guy's here? Sunset told me she rented the place for an hour for our conversation"
"Sunset said she wanted to have a conversation with us" Apple bloom answered. " Wait did she set this up so all of us would be part of the conversation?"
"Look's like it Bloom, but I don't see why she didn't just tell us that she wanted to talk to all of us at the same time" Flash said.
"Guess she must have forgot" Bloom replied.
She and her friends then took their seat's at the booth as the five of them sat in silence quietly reminiscing about the event's that have transpired since last year and the new's that sunset's memories have returned last weekend. No doubt they were expecting some choice words from the fire headed girl once she arrives.
"So" Flash began." She really got her memory back huh?
"Yup" Apple bloom answered." Applejack told me everything"
"So did Dash" Scoots replied.
"Rarity as well" Sweetie belle replied back.
But before they could say more, Mrs Cake walked up to the group and presented them with a large tray of baked goods along with some of their usual beverages they usually get here . Spoons was just as surprised to find her favorite salted caramel Cappuccino on there as well. She asked herself how Sunset knew she would be there as well, and figured that she must be a psychic or something.
"Uh we didn't order these Mrs Cake" Scootaloo said confused, but Mrs Cake just smiled.
"On the house kid's" Mrs Cake said with a warm smile." Sunset figured you five might not have had breakfast yet so she organized a little brunch for you guy's"
"Well, thanks Ma'am we appreciate it" Apple bloom said" And to Sunset as well"
"No prob" Came a voice"
The five friends then quickly looked back at to whom the voice came from. And to there surprise found Sunset Shimmer standing there with a calm looking expression on her face. They continued to stare nervously as she walked over to the booth she had requested for them. After a moment of hesitation between the five of em, Sunset then spoke again.
"Sorry for the wait, I had some stuff to take care of last night but fell asleep before I could finish em" She said.
"Uh no prob Sunset we're glad to see you" Sweetie bell said trying to not act nervous.
"Me as well" Sunset replied with a smile.
"Well I'll leave you six alone then, I gotta check on the twins" Mrs Cake said.
"Ok then, and thanks again Mrs cake, you two Mr Cake" Sunset said to not only Mrs Cake but to her husband as well. Mrs Cake then nodded a " no problem"and walked away to check on their twins but not before giving her husband a " Keep an eye on thing's here dear" look which he happily returned.
" Oh and Sunset" Mr Cake quietly called out." Your frappuccino's gonna be another five minutes, I gotta clean out the blender"
"No worries Mr Cake take your time" Sunset politely replied. Sunset then took a seat at the booth.
After taking her seat there was an awkward silence between the six of em. Deep down each of them felt nervous about the soon to be conversation that's about to transpire, and they all wondered what they were gonna say to each other while also fearing to say anyone out of the thought of saying something they'll regret especially Sunset who set up this meeting in the first place. The three girl's feared saying anything to upset Sunset with them being Anon a Miss and all, and Flash who's worried about what his "girlfriend" Is gonna do to him after realizing that he practically took advantage of her after her memory was erased just to get out of apologizing to her like a man. After what felt like hours Sunset finally broke the ice.
"So how are you all doing?" She said in a polite way.
"Doing good" Bloom responded.
"I'm cool" Scootaloo said while taking a bite of a cream cheese danish.
"I'm well" Sweetie belle said.
"I'm also doing ok Sunset" Spoons said before taking a sip of her cappuccino.
"I'm alright" Flash said while reaching for a blueberry muffin.
"Cool, cool, cool" Sunset said.
There was another awkward silence for a minute, but Bloom mustered up the courage and broke the ice.
"Alright let get it over with" Bloom said." I know you have some "choice" words you want to say to us. I'm doing my best not to act nervous like you said Sunset but I cant take this pressure, so just get it over with"
"Your right Bloom, i do have some words to say to you guy's" She said slightly stern." But I know you guy's have some remorse about what you've done, and I'd like to hear you guy's out before I make my decision.
As she made her statement, the five of em looked at each other with hesitation. noticing this sunset then turned her attention to her boyfriend.
"Flash we'll go ahead and start with you" Sunset said calmly.
Flash was surprised for a moment not expecting to go first, he was afraid of saying the wrong thing to his girlfriend out of fear of losing her again. But deep down he knew he owed it to sunset not only for the Anon a Miss incident but for practically using her to get out of apologizing. This was his chance to make it right, he had to be strong and admit his feeling and to give a proper apology even if it meant losing sunset again.
"Ok babe, it's like this...................................................." Flash said as he began his explanation.
When You and I first met each other during our freshman year I was mesmerized by your beauty Sunset. I don't think I've ever seen a girl as beautiful as you in my entire life, I was worried that I didn't have a chance with you that I wasn't your type of guy. But I was wrong, one day you just approached me and asked me out on a date and boy was I so happy to have been asked out by the girl of my dreams. The time we've spent together were the happiest moments of my life from the parties, movie night's, stroll's through the park, playing guitar together, and watching the star's in the sky. I tell ya I felt like the happiest man alive, But all that changed. When we got to the point in our relationship where we tell each other everything, I was both shocked and amazed that you were actually a magical creature that got sucked into our world from a magic portal residing inside the statue at the center of the school. At first I didn't believe a single word you said and thought you were talking crazy, but when you showed off your magical abilities for me I was again both shocked and amazed as I thought all that stuff only existed in the movies and comics. To think i was actually dating a magical creature that got turned into a human again shocked and amazed me. But when you told me about your plan you have organized since freshman year to take over the school I was horrified that you would use your magic for evil especially since you told me Principle Celestia resembled your former mentor and that you wanted to destroy her so badly, thought you were mad with power. I pleaded with you to not do anything to anyone, but you refused and worst of all you even tried to pursued me to go along with your plan. I flat out refused not wanting to become a villain so I made the hardest choice in my life.........................I broke up with you and cut you out of my life completely. After that you and I never spoke to each other since, and I noticed you taking out your frustrations on all the student's and faculty acting like a dictator and practically turning the whole school into your little kingdom and you even broke off the friendship of the Rainbooms. A part of me wanted to stop you but I knew I didn't stand a chance fearing what you'd do to me and everyone else with your fire magic, I was too much of a coward to do or say anything to you. But that all changed when you disappeared briefly back to your world during the start of our junior year, and I noticed you come back with a mysterious crown. But that's when Twilight came into the picture and I was briefly smitten by her, I was kinda afraid at first especially since you were another creature from sunset's world. However when I heard her backstory as to why she was here and that the crown Sunset brought back with her belonged to her especially since she's a princess I knew we couldn't let you get a hold of it out of fear of you taking over the school. But long story short, during the school dance when you finally executed your plan and nearly took over the school, I was terrified seeing my once true love bloom into a full thrown villain. Then Twilight and the reunited Rainbooms stopped you with their newfound magic and your reign of terror soon came to an end with you breaking down in a large crater. With that said and done Twilight saw good in you and gave you a second chance in our world, as long as the Rainbooms kept a watchful eye on you, with them being the humanized versions of her friends from her world. I figured you would finally go back to the girl I first met but I knew it wasn't gonna be easy to trust you again.
Your redemption
A few month's after your failed takeover me along with all the other students noticed you trying to make amends with us, but we all knew better than to trust you after three whole years of torment you put us through. Not gonna lie a part of me wanted to give you a second chance but I was afraid I would fall into a trap if I came anywhere near you. I witnessed you getting bullied back and tormented by all the vengeful student's and did nothing about it like a stupid coward, another part of me still despised you for trying to use me for your evil plan's. I knew better than to not trust you so soon cause I felt the stuff you tried to do didn't make up for three years of bullying and nearly destroying the whole school. But that's when the Dazzlings came into the picture, at first they seemed like nice guy's and I was a bit worried about you volunteering to show them around the school cause they didn't know your backstory. However I didn't notice anything suspicious at first and I breathed a sigh of relief. But that's when the Battle of the Band's happened. Usually it was a friendly competition between everyone in the school but when the Dazzlings began singing " Lets have a Battle" the whole thing changed to a war for first place. All week everyone was a victim of their brainwashing spell, me included. I was so focused that I turned away from everyone of my friends including Twilight. And during the performance with you and your friends on stage I jumped to the conclusion that you brought the Dazzlings into the school on purpose and that your attempt at redemption was just an act. That's when I called out in the audience " Now that's the demon girl we love to hate!". Spell or not those were my word's and a part of me regretted everything I said that day, but then you and the Rainbooms put a stop to all of this and defeated the Siren's. After that everyone in the school realized that you have changed your ways if you were willing to risk your life for everyone and actually started to trust you. A part of me was even willing to give you a second chance as well, but all that changed when that horrific incident occurred last Christmas.
Anon a Miss
Everything seemed to be going along well for you sunset. You became an official member of the Rainbooms, befriended their sisters and families, made piece with the faculty and the principles, and you even volunteered to help out with some of the clubs at school. You were definitely a changed girl and I was somewhat impressed despite me and you not saying a word to each other after your reformation. I was actually planning on asking you out again as I felt it wouldn't work between me and Twilight as we were from different worlds, that is until the dreaded event that occurred on the last week before winter break. Anon a Miss the name that brought a lot of heartache and drama throughout the school. Secret's were spread, breakups, suspensions, fight's, and a few suicide attempt's. I was furious at the fact someone would do something so evil to the entire school and me included. But after viewing the profile page everyone especially me pinned you as the prime suspect with the page resembling your hair color. I instantly came to the conclusion that you were only pretending to be redeemed just to get us all of guard, I was furious at the fact that is was all just an act. All week we felt betrayed and manipulated by you especially when you kept pleading that you didn't do anything which only made us more angry, and that's when I made the most stupid mistake of my life. The hate mail, I was so furious and betrayed that I had to vent out my frustrations so me and my friend's sent you hate mail letter's written with the most hurtful word's that we could never take back. I wanted to show you what it's like to hurt someone and manipulate them, but when Anon a Miss finally revealed themselves I was surprised to learn that it wasn't you and that you were actually telling the truth. Me and everyone else who have been bullying you all week were now filled with guilt and regret for accusing you, I felt the worst of them all. I felt like such an asshole for saying all those hurtful word's to you in all those letters and I could never take them back. I wanted to apologize to you so badly, to actually talk to you again but I knew it wasn't gonna be that easy. You didn't want anything to do with anyone not even Twilight for four whole months. And after witnessing you nearly send Pinkie and fluttershy to the hospital and nearly burning me, Bulk Bicep's, and the girls at your apartment I knew you would never forgive us and I didn't blame you, we were assholes. And honestly I would have taken a fireball straight through the torso if it meant making amends. I knew things would never go back to normal, that is until we came back from the camping trip"
The Memory Incident
After we came back from the Camp Everfree trip I noticed that you've been unusually happy and ongoing. It's as if you've forgotten about the Anon a Miss incident and the hate mail I've been sending you, what's more suspicious is that there was no mention of you forgiving the Rainbooms and no mention of Anon a Miss at all. After witnessing this for a few day's I decided to confront Applejack at her house knowing that she wouldn't be able to lie her way out of this literally. After a long talk Applejack revealed that a magic stone wiped half of your memory completely including the Anon a Miss incident. I was shocked and upset at first but I realized why they did it cause I knew you weren't planning on forgiving us for a long time. So after that I agreed to keep it a secret as well. After that I decided to ask you out again and was surprised to hear you say yes. I was both shocked and happy knowing that we would start over again. I figured this would be my chance to secretly make amends for what I've done and to officially start over again. But in the end I only ended up using and manipulating you as I knew I'd never get the chance to apologize to you and instead just took the easy way out like a coward.
Back to the present
"So yeah that's that Sunset" Flash continued." In the end I was only thinking of myself, knowing that I'd never get a chance to apologize to you and felt that the memory stone was my ticket to make that horrible incident go away forever and boy was I an idiot. After Dash texted me that you got your memory back, I was afraid of what you were gonna do to me especially since I was the hardest on you during the whole Anon a Miss incident and the fact that our getting back together was practically gaslit. When you called asking to meetup and discuss everything that's happened, but I was surprised that you didn't sound angry or pissed at me but rather calm and collected and you still called me babe after what I've done. I know you can never forgive me for what I've done and how I pretty much manipulated you, I'm a terrible boyfriend Sunset. I know this might not mean much but I'm really sorry if you don"t want to forgive me or want to be my girlfriend anymore I understand, you deserve someone better than me"
After finishing his story Flash hung his head down with shame. He knew that Sunset would never forgive him for what he's done and he wouldn't blame her, he's been terrible using the power of the stone just to erase that incident like a coward and pretending like it never happened. He knew things wont go back again after this and he knew he deserved it. However his posture changed as he felt a pair of hands holding his. He finally mustered up the courage to look up and found Sunset looking at him with a warm smile and tear's forming in her eye's.
"Sunset?" He asked.
"Flash listen to me" Sunset replied calmly." Don't get me wrong I am disappointed and upset that the last nine months we spent together were pretty much a lie and that you were practically using the stone as an excuse to erase this incident to make it seem like it never happened instead of apologizing like a man"
Flash was about to hang his head in shame again after hearing her statement.
"But" Sunset continued stopping Flash from hanging his head again." I wasn't the best girlfriend myself. Hell I tried to manipulate you myself by getting you to go along with my revenge plan, and honestly you had every right to break up with me cause I was literally a demon girl"
Just them Mr cake walked up to the group and presented sunset her Chocolate Coconut milk frappuccino.
"Oh , thanks Mr Cake" Sunset said showing her gratitude.
"Not a problem Sunset" He said before walking back to the counter to allow the kids to continue their conversation. After receiving her drink Flash began to speak again.
"No your not Sunset I'm the one who messed up not you" Flash jumped in. " Twilight and the girl's informed me of your backstory and why you arrived at our world. I didn't realize you went through all that with your old mentor and I completely understood why you treated us the way you did. If I had realized that sooner I wouldn't have accused you so easily an comforted you instead of manipulating you the way I did, I'm the demon not you"
"Your not a demon Flash" Sunset replied. " I know you regret what you've done as well as me. You messed up and so did I, You manipulated me as have I. But look I don't want you going the rest of your life full of regret and remorse. It's not healthy to bottle all this up so just look back at what you've done when you asked me out again so that you dont make the same mistake again"
Flash then let out a long sigh after hearing Sunset's words before continuing.
"your right Sunset, I gotta stop being a coward and face my problems like a man instead of taking the easy way out like a simp" Flash said. " So what does that make us ?"
" Come here idiot" Sunset said with a sigh before leaning in and bringing Flash in for a kiss which he quickly returned. And after a few minutes the kiss ended.
"But your paying for our dates for the rest of winter break bigboy" Sunset said with a vengeful smile.
"Hehe yes ma'am" Flash said with a chuckle.
"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWđź’•!!!!!!!!!" The CMC said in unison and chuckles.
" Oh don't act so smug you three" Sunset said with a determined look and a smile. " Cause now its your turn"
The three friends then gulped knowing that it was now their turn to tell their side. But they knew there was no running from this and had to be brave just like Flash. After a moment one of them finally spoke.
" Ok Sunset, I'll go first" Scootaloo said as she began her explanation.
" It all started a week after we confessed" Scootaloo said as she began her tale.
Last Year
After me and the girls confessed to our crimes on the intercom in the principles office, we could practically hear the student's and faculty raging and cursing outside. Me and the girls pretty much knew our lives were on the line literally I was even scared to step outside the hallway after we confessed to what we've done. Once we confessed , me and the girl's waited to hear what our punishment was gonna be, but we were shocked to find out the verdict between Principle Celestia and Vice Principle Luna..........................................We were expelled. Me and the girl's were surprised at this cause we were expecting 6 months of detention or a month suspension but they just outright expelled us, however they stated that this was for our own good since pretty much the entire school was out for blood and it would be safer to just expel us as to avoid any violent bullying from everyone in school. But that's not the worst part, instead of grounding me my adopted parents announced that I would live with my Aunt's Holiday and Lofty all the way in Philadelphia. I was shocked at this as it would mean that I would lose contact with Sweetie Belle and Apple bloom, they said that this was for my own good as I was pretty much a bounty for the student's. Even though I was expelled that wouldn't stop any of em from attacking me outside of school and they figured this was also a proper punishment to teach me about hurting others out of some petty jealousy. I apologized like a hundred times and begged them to let me stay but they wouldn't budge and what's worse Dash didn't speak to me all week and pretty much avoided me pretending that she didn't even have a little sister. It broke my heart knowing that I lost not only my friends but my sister/role model as well. On the day when I was about to head out to Philadelphia me and the girl's tried to apologize to you but you simply just brushed us off along with our sister's so we just left you be. I said my goodbye's to Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom before Dash dropped me off at the airport, again she didn't say a word to me, she didn't even say goodbye or nothing. After that I just stepped into the terminal sad and gloomy with my luggage in hand ready to start my next "adventure". after I arrived at my Aunt's place I started to settle in, I was even grounded for the first month as soon as I arrived, but honestly I didn't even care anymore as I already lost everything I cared about. After that my aunt's enrolled me into the local highschool downtown and boy was I in for it. The school was known as Philadelphia Star Academy or PSA for short and I'm not joking when I say this place was a freaking Gulag! The whole place looked like a war zone. The lockers were chipped and rusted, some of the windows were cracked, there was barely any light's, hell there was even some graffiti in some of the bathrooms, the teachers didn't look the least bit friendly, and don't even get me started on the student's. There was practically 2-3 gang's in the school who took the thrill of jumping anyone who either stepped foot in their territories or just to smack around and bully for fun. During the first three month's I ended up being one of their victim's. I was kicked, punched, slammed into lockers, and they even tried to toss me down the stairs and a window, thank god Dash taught me how to break loose from a grip. Each day I came home with bruises all over my body and my Aunt's always treated my wound's the second I walk into the house. Each time they questioned why I didn't go to the nurses office but I knew I deserved getting my ass kicked after what I did to not only Dash but to you as well Sunset, they kept asking me the names of the kids who bully me but each time I lied and said that I don't remember cause the teachers and even the principle, and vice principle just turned a blind eye on all the violence in the school and wouldn't do a damn thing about it. And worst of all one of the gang members was Diamond Tiara's estranged cousin, GOD just the thought of being in the same school with a relative of my mortal enemy just made me sick to my stomach. It got even worse when they started to "tease" me by waving their weapons in my face from knives, gun's, bat's, and knuckle dusters. I knew I had to get the hell outta here, but I figured that my parent's wouldn't let me come home after what I've done. So for the next month I just settled on ditching school and hiding out in the junkyard until the day ended, and I always came home pretending to have come back from school. Luckily the Principles and teachers didn't give a damn about attendance so my little plan went smoothly, but not for long. One day while I was hiding out in the junkyard playing on my phone I got hungry so I decided to get myself some lunch from Burger King all while avoiding any cop or truant officer I came across. But as I was about to order my food I heard a voice yell out my name in the restaurant and was shocked to find my Aunt's right in the back of me looking pissed, as it turn's out they were in the city doing some grocery shopping and decided to stop by the same Burger king I was at to get some lunch. After that they dragged me out of the joint and into their car. As soon as we got home they demanded to know what was going on and why I wasn't in school. They actually have been suspicious for the first half of this month as they noticed that I've been unusually happy and didn't have any bruises on my body since I always came home with them all over. After that I finally broke down and admitted to everything that I've been through these past 4 1/2 months from the bullying, nearly getting killed, the gang members, why I refused to let the nurse treat my wounds, and ditching school for three week's just to avoid it all. After I explained everything I was waiting for them to just lash out and ground me, but to my surprise my aunt's walked up and hugged me. They apologized for not realizing that I've been going through so much pain and not noticing it sooner, I soon returned the embrace cause cause I couldn't stay mad at my aunt's as they've always loved me and treated me like I was their actual niece. After a long talk they told me to go upstairs and get some rest while they discuss some things. That night they phoned my parent's but Dash answered instead telling them that they were out on one of their date night's and it was just her in the house. So my Aunt's explained the situation to Dash and she was quick to say that she'll let my folk's know right away in the morning. For the next 2 days my Aunt's let me stay home from school until they got a call back from my folk's back at home. A few day's later I woke up in the morning and went downstairs to get some breakfast to my surprise I found Rainbow dash and my parent's waiting for me downstairs who were quick to run up and bring me into a group hug which I tearfully returned not caring if it went against my tough nature. As it turn's out Dash actually threatened to quit all her sport's teams if our parent's didn't let me come home, knowing they are big fans of their daughter and her academic's they quickly agreed not wanting her to give up her future. I was happy that Dash was willing to put her future on the line for me even after what I've done. We all decided to spend the rest of the day together before heading back to Canterlot, and during that time I apologized for everything I've done and my parent's and Dash were quick to forgive me which made me the happiest girl in the world. Later that night I started to pack my bag's and was more than ready to head home, We all said goodbye to Aunt Holiday and Lofty and made our way to the airport. I felt so good to finally come home and get away from that terrible school and the gang's, as the plane took off Dash had a little word with me and said " I'll always love you Squirt, what you did messed me and the girl's up badly but that's not gonna stop us from being family, we may not be related but your still my little sister and I'll always love you no matter how much you mess up" I have never been so happy in my life, it felt so good to here my big sis call me squirt again and to say that she loved me. We spent the entire flight in each others arms reminiscing about finally heading home, our real home. As soon as we made it back to Canterlot when we got out of the terminal To my surprise I found Sweetie Belle waiting for me as well and we soon hugged each other happy to be reunited once more, however I learnt that Bloom had to stay in Texas for an extra few day's due to an accident and was worried at first but I was relieved to know that she was doing better and better each day.
Present
"Then a few day's later Bloom came back home crutches in hand and we all celebrated at the gang finally being reunited again" Scootaloo said as she was about to finish her story. " Then a week later we were properly welcomed back to Canterlot High but a few measures had to be made for us which we didn't mind as long as we were together again, and me and the girl's breathed a sigh of relieved when we learned that the students and faculty have long since forgiven us and personally welcomed us back home"
After finishing her story Scoots took a sip of her s'mores Frappe all while Sunset looked shocked and surprised at the fact Scoots went through all that in Philadelphia and made it back home in one piece, after a moment she then spoke.
"Scootaloo, I had know Idea you went through all that. I'm so sorry" Sunset said in a sympathetic and sad tone.
"It's cool Sunset" Scoots replied putting her drink back on the table." After what we've done to you it was a small price to pay. But In the end there was a silverlining. A week after we were welcomed back at school I learned that my Aunt's sued the entire school for how I and the many other bullied student's were treated and for turning a blind eye at everything that happened, my Aunt's won the case with flying color's and the school got shut down temporarily and all of the faculty member's were fired along with the principles and had to pay a large settlement for the many damages throughout the school. And the best part the gang's were arrested and sentenced to 15 years, I was happy to know that they wont hurt anyone anymore. And that's not all my Aunt's are actually planning on signing up for the principle and vice principle positions of the school hoping to turn it into a safe sanctuary for all the student's free of bullying and gang member's. They are also planing on having some of their friends on board for the teaching positions as well"
"That's great Scootaloo, I know your Aunt's are gonna turn the school around" Sunset said happy for her friend's outcome.
" And listen Scoots" She continued." You did not and I repeat NOT deserve all those beatings. Look what you did to not only me but everyone else was messed up, but your not a bad person. I don't want you punishing yourself over one mistake. Even though you caused a lot of rift's you were still forgive by not only Dash but the entire school as well. What you did wont go away but it's not too late to move forward, and don't think punishing yourself is what you deserve if you do something bad. Because it isn't and Dash would agree with me too, so don't ever think you deserve to be sad cause you don't and you know it"
Scootaloo then thought for a moment about Sunset's little speech, and deep down she knew Sunset was right. She thought about what a fool she was thinking getting bullied was the right way to show how sorry she was for everything. But looking at it now she knew that torturing yourself isn't the right move to prove that you were sorry. In the en every one that she's hurt knew that she was sorry and showed remorse so there was no need for any of that, they still cared about her and nothing will change that no matter what stupid thing she and her friends do.
"Your right sunset" She said. " It's not cool to punish myself over a mistake, Dash wouldn't want that from me. I need to face my problems and solve them the right way instead of taking the cowards way by punishing myself"
Sunset then gave the sophomore a proud smile before taking a bite of an everything bagel. After a moment one of the girl's then spoke.
"Well guess it's my turn next" Sweetie belle said slightly nervous.
"Indeed" Sunset replied politely ushering her to continue." Go on ahead then Sweetie belle"
Sweetie Belle (Warning contains cutting and bullying)
" You see after me and the girl's were expelled.........................................." Sweetie Belle said as she began her backstory.
Last year
After our expulsion was given my parent's and Rarity were just as furious at me, my mother berated me for acting so cruel and ruining an innocent girl's life out of some petty jealousy which went against what she taught me about proper behavior. My dad just stayed silent and gave me the most disappointing look in his eye's and I didn't really blame him or mom I was so cruel to you, and Rarity was the most furious at me for not only wrecking her friendship with Sunset, her reputation, but spreading her darkest secret that I took out of her diary about her little "accident" at OliveGarden . Not only did she destroy all the dresses she made for me she also up and slapped me when I tried to apologize to her and honestly I deserved it even if it wasn't to hard of a slap. After that I just locked myself in my room and refused to come out not wanting to face the people I hurt. The next day after Scootaloo was sent away to Philadelphia my folks announced that they were sending me out of the state too and were gonna enroll me into a boarding school in New York City and that I would live with my aunt and uncle. I was upset at this decision but I knew better than to argue. And what's worse Rarity was on board with the decision as well as she wanted nothing to do with me, It broke my heart knowing my sister doesn't want anything to do with me anymore. The next day I packed up my things getting ready to start my new life in New York, as we got to the airport my family dropped me off at the terminal. before I entered the terminal I tried one more time to apologize to Rarity but she just told me to scram which I "happily" obliged. I said nothing more and just made my way to the terminal depressed. As the plane took off I wasn't the least bit thrilled to see my aunt and uncle as they're not exactly the nicest people in the world, and honestly I don't blame my dad for not speaking to his brother for years or barely inviting them to family events. As soon as I arrived at their home instead of a warm greeting they just dragged me to their guest room (which only had a bed and a lamp) and told me not to bother them until dinner, I collapsed on the bed all gloomy wishing that this was all a bad dream. The next day my aunt dropped me off at the boarding school known as Young Masters Academy, but as I got out of the car I was shocked as it was nothing like the pamphlet mom showed me and looked more like a prison. And so I officially started my first day at my new school, when I walked inside It was a horrendous sight to behold. Most of the windows had bar's around them, security cameras all over the hallway, the lockers looked like bank vault's, and don't even get me started on the dress code. The only thing normal in this school was the dorm's, but when I met her I knew better than to live inside the school. Scarlett Blossom was her name mean, tall, popular, a queen bee, and a rich snob just like the other student's I was still shocked and terrified that she was the same age as me. She, her boyfriend, and her cronies practically ran the school with an iron fist, she was 10 times worse than your old self.
" Uh no offense" Sweetie bell said nervously thinking she offended Sunset.
"No non taken" Sunset replied with a slight chuckle before ushering Sweetie belle to continue.
Back to the story
Anyways, many of the girl's feared her as she and her friend's had many connections with the students and even the staff and were pretty good at hiding it from Principle Neighsay. During first period I was "lucky" enough to meet her face to face and she and her posse were quick to mock and judge me for my attire as my aunt and uncle were too cheap to buy the school uniform so I had to stick with my usual attire. All day I was ridiculed, bullied, given snarky remarks on my appearance, and during lunch Scarlett's boyfriend tripped me as I was looking for a table and I landed face first on the hard ground. Everyone just laughed not caring that I had a small gash on my forehead. After that I skipped lunch and just sat in the nurses office as she treated my wound which I lied about what really happened and just said that I bumped into a wall. As I got home I just stayed silent for the rest of the day even during dinner. My aunt and uncle didn't even ask about my head injury or if I was alright, after dinner I just went straight to bed. I tried texting Rarity but after 20 minutes I just gave up and went to sleep. The next day I thought it would be different, but boy was I wrong. The bullying continued as Scarlett and her peer's continued to harass me, even when she wasn't with them that didn't stop any of them from messing with me. It made me wish that Scootaloo was here cause she would beat the living crap out of Scarlett despite her height, but i knew I was on my own as I knew my aunt and uncle wouldn't be of any help. This went on for days and month's as Scarlett and her friends continued to trip, mock, ridicule, talk behind my back, vandalize my locker with jokes and threat's, and steal from my backpack. This drove me completely crazy and each day I phoned home begging for them to let me come back, but each time my parent's refused and told me to not let them get to me which wouldn't be as easy. Then after 4 1/2 months of bullying and taunting, I finally snapped at Scarlett and her peer's latest scheme. When the school day ended I was ready to just head home and put this whole day behind me, but then suddenly this cute guy walked up to me. He told me that I was the prettiest sophomore he ever laid eyes on and that he felt bad for me at how Scarlett and her peer's treated me and asked if I wanted to see a movie with him this weekend, I felt happy to know there was a person in school who felt bad for me. But before I could say yes I noticed him give a nod to someone but before I could question about it this other guy walked up behind me and pulled up my shirt in front of everyone. Then the boy laughed and told the other guy who was revealed to be his friend good job and that it was easy money, that's when I knew the whole thing was set up by Scarlett and that she payed them to do this. Then the boy and everyone in the hallway laughed, hooted, and took pictures as the other guy continued to lift up my shirt, I continued to struggle out of his grip, no one tried to help me they just continued to take pictures and laugh at me. Then Scarlett walked towards me with an evil smile and said to me "Nice bra shrimp, but blue is so not your color". After her remark I finally broke free from the other guy and ran away from the crowd as they continued to laugh. Before I knew it I ran into one of the bathrooms and locked the door and broke down in one of the stalls quietly cursing my body for making my breast's develop this year, I have never felt so humiliated in my life I wished that Rarity was here to comfort me and give me a hug but I knew I no longer had anyone thanks to our stupid Anon a Miss plan. After crying for like an eternity I looked at my phone to find that it was 8pm. I was shocked realizing that I've been crying for hours, I soon collected myself and made my way out of the bathroom all while checking to see if some of the staff went back home or if the live in student's went back to their dorm's. I signed in relief knowing the coast was clear and made my way thinking about how long my aunt and uncle were gonna ground me for coming home five hours late. But as I made my way to the entrance door the horrible images of the event's i've been through these past 4 1/2 months began to play in my head from Scarlett's bullying, the insult's, backtalking, trippings, mockings, and the hallway incident that transpired earlier. Instead of making my way out I just made my way towards the science lab with a blank expression on my face, I grabbed a scalpel from one of the tables and made my way toward's the locker room. When i got in I sat at one of the bleachers with the scalpel in my hand and began to run it across my wrist while quietly weeping " I'm sorry" over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over.................................................................................................
Back to the present
As Sweetie bell continued to say "over" tear's began to form i her eyes as she reminisced at that awful day until she just said nothing and just broke down. Sunset's heart broke into a million pieces at the fact that Sweetie belle went through so much pain during her stay in New York and how those awful student's drove her to hurt herself just like Scootaloo. Sunset then walked up from her seat and brought Sweetie belle into a comforting embrace which she was quick to return and cried on her shoulder.
"Shhhhhhhhhh, It's ok Sweetie bell, It's ok" Sunset said sadly as she gently rubbed Sweetie belles back as she continued to cry on her shoulder, seeing their friend in this state brought Flash and the others in tears as well at the thought of their friend going through so much pain while quietly cursing at Scarlett and those monsters for their harsh treatment of her. After a few minutes Sweetie bell calmed down before speaking again.
"Thank you Sunset I needed that" She sniffed.
"It's no problem, I had no Idea you went through so much pain I'm so sorry" sunset replied sympathetically.
" It's alright Sunset" Sweetie belle replied still sniffing. " I kind of des.........
"DONT" Sunset sternly said.
" DO NOT FINISH THAT SENTENCE" She continued in a stern tone. " You did not and I repeat not deserve all of that. Listen Sweetie bell It's like I said to Scoots hurting yourself is never the answer, no matter what you've done don't ever and I mean EVER think that you need to punish yourself for your crimes. What those girl's did to you wasn't your fault, you did not deserve all that. They're the ones who deserve to suffer for their crimes not you, so don't blame yourself for what happened to you last year cause it wasn't your fault"
"Well, actually Sunset" Sweetie bell said slowly wiping away her tears . " My story does have a silverlining as well" Sweetie bell then continued...................................
Back to the story
As I was about to cut my other wrist a security guard walked in and saw the whole thing. So she quickly grabbed the scalpel from me and placed a towel around my wrist to stop the bleeding, a moment later she brought me into the nurses office who treated my scratches. Luckily the scalpel wasn't as sharp so there wasn't any permanent damage, a few minutes later Principle Neighsay walked in after being informed about what had happened from the security guard and he asked me what happened and why i was still in school as I didn't live in one of the dorm's. After a moment I finally broke and told him everything about how Scarlett and her friends have been treating me these past 4 1/2 month's and what happened to me in the hallway. After I finished my story he gave me a hug apologizing for not realizing all this, after that he let me spend the night at one of the empty dorm room's and phoned two people. First he called my aunt and uncle and lied saying that I had an accident in gym and had to spend the night in one of the dorm's until I felt better and my aunt and uncle bought it as they weren't the brightest people, and then he phoned my family to let them know what had happened and how I was treated and they were quick to say that they'll come right down tomorrow. After making the calls he and some of the security guards checked the security camera's and found all the evidence they needed to bring Scarlett, her friends, and the student's in the hallway to justice. The next day he held a mandatory meeting for all the student's after 2nd period. During the assembly he berated not only Scarlett but everyone in the hallway for taking picks and laughing instead of helping me and that they should be ashamed of themselves and showed the security cam footage on the projection screen as proof of the crime, after a 20 minute lecture on bullying the student's who took pic's were suspended and their parents ( who were also in the audience) and some of the security guard's confiscated their phones. Luckily they haven't posted the pics online yet which was a relief for me. He then told Scarlett that he would announce her punishment personally after school, after their phones were taken away and punishments were given he made some strict new rules stating that all electronic devices were now banned on campus and that they now had to use the corded phones in their dorms to contact their families and to use the computers in the library from now on. Most of the student's were even sentenced to a week on dorm arrest with their assignments sent over to them. Once the assembly ended many of the student's cursed at Scarlett due to the hallway incident being her bright idea and so her friends and boyfriend abandoned her for the new unfair rules that were given and for getting them suspended and placed on dorm arrest, after that Scarlett just left without saying anything to anyone . Many of the student's walked up and apologized to me saying that they didn't know I was hurt so badly and that the felt bad for not doing anything to save me and they hoped that I would find it in my heart to forgive them someday and they walked away sad. I didn't say anything but I appreciated the apology and smiled a little, As I was about to make my way to class I was surprised to find Rarity and my parent's waiting for me at the entrance and they were quick to bring me into a group hug. Rarity then apologized for slapping me and for acting so cruel not knowing I've been through so much pain after Anon a Miss and begged me for forgiveness. But instead I asked for forgiveness for starting this Anon a Miss incident in the first place and that I didn't mean to hurt her or Sunset, with that Rarity and my parent's were quick to forgive me and we all embraced each other knowing that we were still a family and nothing would ever change that. Once the hug ended my mom announced that she had cancelled the rest of the school fee's and that they were taking me home immediately, I jumped for joy knowing that I was finally going home. Before we left the school I thanked Principle Neighsay for the help and he said that he was glad that I was ok and that he was gonna turn the school around and make it a much safer place. We then said goodbye to him as we drove off but not before Scarlett called out to me that she will get her revenge someday. We then made our way back to my aunt and uncles to collect my stuff. When we got out of the car my dad up and slugged my uncle in the jaw and my mom slapped my aunt 5 times in the row cursing them for turning a blind eye at the abuse I went through for 4 1/2 months and forbid them from contacting or going near the family. After that I packed up my thing's went back to the car and we drove off not bothering to look back at my aunt or uncle who were still on the ground groaning in pain. During the ride to the airport Rarity hugged me and wouldn't let me go and she said to me " I love you Sweetie bell, no matter what horrendous thing you've done that's not gonna stop our bond as sisters. But promise me next time you'll talk to me about your problems instead of going through my diary" After that I promised and held her as well happy to have my big sister back into my life and that I was finally welcomed back home.
Present
" So yeah that's that for me" Sweetie belle said as she wrapped up her story." After we arrived back at the terminal of Canterlot I received a text from applejack explaining that Apple bloom got into an accident back at Texas but that she was receiving treatment and would make a full recovery but had to be on crutches for a while afterwords. Then I spotted Scootaloo coming out of another Terminal and we were quick to embrace knowing the gang was all most reunited, then a few day's alter bloom came home and we were all happy to be back home safe and sound"
As she finished Sunset couldn't help but feel happy that her friend was alright and that Scarlett and her aunt and uncle got what they deserved.
"I'm glad your alright Sweetie belle" Sunset said with a smile before heading back to her seat.
"Thank's sunset" Sweetie bell replied. " And listen I know me and the girl's hurt you badly so whatever your verdict is after this I'll except it and do my best to make it all up to you"
After hearing her response Sunset smiled proudly at the young sophomore more taking responsibility for her actions. Sweetie belle then took a sip of her Chai tea and reached for a glazed donut as sunset stared at the last girl of the group.
"Guess that leaves you now Bloom" Sunset said to her. However bloom just sat there nervously while taking a sip of her iced apple spiced latte.
"Uh Sunset, Bloom doesn't really like talking about what happened down in Texas" Silver spoon said calmly defending her friend.
"No" Bloom replied." It's alright Spoons.
"Are you sure Bloom?" Spoons asked.
"Yes I am" She replied. " It's like you said to me I can't run away from my problem's anymore , It's time I faced them and spoke my mind, no more running away"
As Bloom made her little speech Both Sunset and spoons looked at her proudly, Sunset then ushered her to go on.
"Here's how I went down sunset" Bloom said as she began her story...........................................................
Apple bloom ( Warning contains Suicide attempt, suggestive themes and abuse)
" If you thought Sweetie Bell and Scoot's had it rough, it's nothing compared to what I've been through" Bloom said as she began her tale..................................
Last year
Unlike Scoot's and Belle's folks, my family was just as furious at me. I tell ya I have never seen Granny Smith so disappointed in all my life, that look she gave me after we confessed looked as if she acted like I didn't even existed. I felt absolutely terrible for all this as Anon a Miss was my idea so I was pretty much the ring leader of this whole fiasco. Applejack didn't say a word to me after our expulsion was given and I didn't really blame her especially since her little "piggly wiggly" secret was sacred and private to her and I ruined and exposed it and it's never gonna go away. I pretty much just isolated myself from my family as they wanted nothing to do with the leader of Anon a Miss and I tried my best to avoid Big Mac at all times.

"Wait you avoided your brother, why?" Sunset asked." Did you write one of his secret's too Bloom?'
"Yes" Apple Bloom answered." When he found out that I posted his secret he was ABSOLUTELY furious, I legit thought he was gonna kill me"
"Was his secret really that bad? Sunset asked." What did you write about him Bloom? You know what never mind it's not my business I'm sorry"
"No it's alright Sunset" Apple Bloom replied. "Pretty much everyone in school knows already so there's really no point in keeping it locked up, you see......................................................
My Brother's secret
It all started after I posted Applejack's secret on monday, I knew we had to go further if our plan to separate you from our sisters was gonna work so we all decided to dig deeper. So Scoots and Sweetie Belle volunteered to find out their sisters secret's along with some of our classmates. I figured that I already got Applejack so I went for my brothers next but unfortunately I couldn't find anything on him, until that one night. While I was heading to bed reminiscing about how our Sisters and classmates abandoned you and that our plan was going smoothly, I heard a strange noise coming from my brothers room. So I decided to take a quick peak as my curiosity got the better of me and that"s when I found my brother masturbating. It was a gross sight to behold as there was like five used tissues near his bed meaning he's been doing it for a while, what's more disturbing is the person he was masturbating to..............................................Miss Cheerilee. The head of the library and the one of the members of the school board, I was completely shocked at this even though my brother was 18 It weirded me out that he was fantasizing about our 26 year old teacher especially since he already had a girlfriend. after staring for ten seconds I took out my phone and made the most stupidest mistake of my life, I recorded the whole session. He went on for like 10 minutes straight, I knew he worked out but I didn't realize he had that much in him. After I finished recording I put my phone away and quietly went back to my room, then the next morning I posted the video on the Anon a Miss account and titled it " Big Mac's got a thing for Miss Cheerilee" again I didn't realize what a stupid mistake this was gonna be. When my brother got to school a lot of the student's male and female had varied reactions as he walked through the hallway. They smirked, talked behind his back, snickered, gave him dirty looks, and most of the females coughed "pervert" and when Miss Cheerilee saw him she just gave him a look of disgust and walked away. Then his girlfriend Sugar Bell walked up and straight up slapped him, when he asked what was the matter with her and why everyone was acting weird towards him she just said angrily " WHY DON'T YOU ASK ANON A MISS SICKO!!!!!!!!!!!" and she ran away sobbing, and so my bro did just that. The second he saw the video of his little " Session" he immediately screamed your name and charged towards you. After a brief chase session you were soon saved by a security guard who dragged Big Mac away all while he vowed revenge against you. After that he was given a week of after school detention for nearly attacking a female student but that's wasn't the end of it. All week the taunt's and snickering continued as all the students talked behind his back joking about his apparent "Fetish" for age difference and Sugar Belle even broke up with him and went to her friend Party Favor for comfort. I noticed all this and I secretly felt bad for not only ruining your reputation but my brothers as well, but I selfishly put it aside knowing that Big Mac would murder me if he ever found out.

"Jesus, I didn't know your brother had such wild fantasies, especially toward our school librarian" Sunset said slightly surprised as she thought back at when Big Mac angrily chased her down in the hallway which made her wonder what secret of his that Bloom posted that made him so angry, and now she knew the secret that drove him to madness. " But that was a pretty stupid move you did Bloom not to mention that it's also illegal, your lucky you didn't get charged with online sexual conduct for posting that video"
"I know sunset" Bloom replied sadly not blaming Sunset for being disappointed." But like I said I wasn't thinking clearly when I did it, i know that's a pretty BS excuse but I didn't realize that it would impact and come back to me eventually"
Aftermath and Consequences
After our confession all HELL broke loose and I not taking about the student's we hurt. As we walked out of the office found ourselves surrounded by a mob of angry students who gave us sour and pissed off look's but that wasn't what I was terrified about. Just then I heard someone scream my name, and that's when I found Big Mac in the hallway looking all kind's of pissed. Seriously his eyes were as red as his flannel shirt I have never seen him get this angry in my entire life, I immediately froze in place as he charged towards me. Scoots and Sweetie Belle stood right in front of me to protect me , but then Applejack and her boyfriend Caramel rushed in and held Big Mac back as he struggled to get out of their grip. As he was restrained Applejack sternly told me to go home with Granny Smith which I quickly obliged knowing my brother was gonna tear me limb from limb the second he escapes their grasp's and the other girl's followed suit with their parent's as well. When I got home Granny Smith ordered me to wait in my room until my sister and brother came home, so I just stayed upstairs for half of the day scared about what AJ, Granny, and ESPECIALLY Big Mac were gonna do to me. Once they arrived home the "family conversation" began. the three of em yelled at me for hour's until the sun went down. I tell ya this is the angriest I've ever seen my family get I felt like a prisoner getting interrogated but unlike the good cop bad cop scenario, it was flat out bad cop and bad cop. After hours of yelling and berating me, Granny Smith announced that I would be sent away as well to live with my Aunt, uncle, and cousin Braeburn out in Texas from now on as not only punishment but to protect me from all the angry student's who were out for blood. I was heartbroken at the fact my family was sending me away, after her announcement I just walked up to my room depressed instead of arguing back as i knew it would be pointless and Mac continued to give me a murderous glare as I walked up the stairs. As soon as I got to my room I locked and barricaded my door fearing that Big Mac might do something to me in my sleep, I silently cursed myself for starting this whole mess in the first place and dragging my friends along with me. I then cried myself to sleep wishing to reverse all this and make it all go away, but I knew it was simply impossible.
Arriving in Texas
The next day was the start of my "journey" , After packing up my thing's I headed downstairs to meet Granny Smith and the others in her pickup truck. Applejack gave me a nasty glare as I walked toward's the vehicle and she whispered the most hurtful sentence to me " Ma and Pa having you was the worst decision of their lives" I tried my best to hold back my tears, It broke my heart to know my older sister hated me for ruining her friendship with you but the fact that she wished that I was never born tore me apart.
Intermission
Sunset remained visibly shocked that Applejack would say something so heartless to her younger sister. Despite what she and the others have done that seemed way to far, especially for the element of honesty.
"I'm gonna have a long talk with Applejack later today about that" She said in her head, slightly growling a bit.
Back to the story
I decided to just sit in the trunk as I didn't want to go the whole trip surrounded by angry glares and I especially didn't want to be near Big Mac. Throughout the ride to the airport I stayed silent and collected my thought's about everything that has happened, my petty jealousy, Starting Anon a Miss, ruining my siblings reputation, You cutting ties with everyone, rejecting our apologies, losing my families trust, and worst of all I'd never see my friend's again. I wished so desperately that I could take it all back and to reverse this, but I knew this would never go away and it can never be fixed. I wanted so badly to say goodbye to Sweetie bell and Scoots but sadly I remembered that they were sent away as well and it'd be nearly impossible to contact them. After an hour we arrived at the airport and was lead to the terminal for Texas, I looked back at the three of em before walking inside I waved goodbye to them but they didn't say a word or even look at me. So I just stepped into the terminal with my head down low sad that my own family hates my gut's. after an hour flight of silence, i soon arrived in texas where I was greated by my cousin Braeburn who escorted me to their farm. After a long drive we arrived at his folks, but unlike Braeburn my uncle didn't give me a warm welcome and just glared while my Aunt just remained silent. I figured that Applejack or Granny smith informed them about what I did and honestly I knew I couldn't escape from my crimes no matter how far away I was. After that I started to settle in to my new home but that was easier said than done.
4 1/2 months of hell
So I then settled in to my new home, I was enrolled into the local High school downtown. Which wasn't so bad, the school wasn't as run down as the schools Scoots and Sweetie bell were enrolled into and non of the students gave me any trouble and some of my cousins were students there as well so I wasn't as lonely there I actually settled in well and made some new friends hell there weren't even any bullies . But it just wasn't the same without Scootaloo or Sweetie belle by my side. So far I've been doing pretty well in my new school and I even started to get good grades and was even on the honor role, but TBH I wished that the school was my new home instead of my aunt and uncles cause it was a lot safer here than at the house. You see everyday after school my uncle made me do work around the farm and I mean work, and what's worse he banned me from using any electronics around the house without his or my aunt's permission. I hated these new rules but I knew better than to argue with my Uncle. Some day's after I finished all my farm chores I just go upstairs and sleep not even bothering to eat dinner as I was too tired to eat, but Braeburn was kind enough to bring me up a midnight snack from time to time. Most night's I barely get any sleep due to my Aunt and Uncles constant arguing, as it turn's out my Uncle's Brewery has been going through some rough times and is on the brink of shutting down completely. Meaning that he'd be out of a job soon and worst of all my Aunt was actually planning on divorcing him, my Uncle was so frustrated with everything that's about to transpire that he's been taking it out on my Aunt and Braeburn ever since and now he was taking it out on me as well, looking at it now I don't blame my Aunt for wanting to divorce him. I wanted to get out of this house so badly so I attempted five runaway attempt's for these past 4 1/2 month's. On my first attempt I tried to go on the side of the road and flag down a driver but my uncle found me, On the second attempt I ended up hitchhiking in the desert which looking back was kind of stupid as it would be nearly impossible to reach Canterlot on foot being thousand's of miles away and eventually my uncle found me again, On the third attempt one of my friend's from school tried to help smuggle me to Canterlot with the help of his older brother but sadly my uncle found out and dragged me home and worst of all he told my friend's parents and he was now grounded for a month but he didn't blame me for it which was good, then on the fourth attempt I snuck onto a cargo train that was on it's way to Canterlot but before it left the facility low and behold my Uncle somehow found me again, then on my final attempt I "borrowed" My Uncles credit card and bought myself a plane ticket to just fly to Canterlot, But before I got to the terminal my Uncle found me and dragged me home after he found a statement on his credit history about a $200 plane ticket to Canterlot. Each failed attempt my Uncle beat me senseless and worst of all he even forced Braeburn to assist him, and he always hit him whenever he refused all while my aunt just turned a blind eye.
"Intermission"
"Wait a sec" Sunset interrupted. " Braeburn was forced to beat you? He didn't do it intentionally?"
"No he didn't" Apple Bloom replied sadly. " Like I said my uncle has been taking out his frustration on not only my aunt but him as well, with my uncle being the strongest he didn't stand a chance against him. During all the beat downs I could see the hurt and remorse in his eyes as I knew he didn't want to hurt me but my uncle forced him to do it. Every single time he walked into my room and cried on my lap begging for forgiveness , but each time I told him that it wasn't his fault and not to worry I'll be fine. Luckily all the bruises healed pretty quickly and during school I always lied and said that I hurt myself doing chores around the farm"
After her little explanation Sunset remained visibly shocked that Bloom went through so much abuse throughout her stay at Texas. And what's worse her poor cousin was forced to assist in the abuse, which broke not only Bloom's heart but Sunset's as well at the thought of a family member being forced to do that as well. After a moment Sunset then ushered Bloom to continue.
My breaking point
After my fifth runaway attempt failed I made no other attempt to run and simply just fell into a deep depression. I cursed myself for my many wrong doings and ruining my family as it all started with my stupid Anon a miss plan. I ended up staying quiet during the first weeks of April barely saying a word except if i was asked to answer a question during class lectures. I didn't even eat anything at home or at school and practically starved myself. What's worse my uncle tried to force feed me and once again he threatened Braeburn to do the same, but each time I just forcibly made myself throw up before bed. Braeburn even tried to bring me a midnight snack as he usually did whenever I was too tired to eat after doing my after school chores, but I was too sad to eat. I once again wished that I could take it all back and that I had my friend's and family by my side again, but I knew nothing would ever make this right i lost everything and it was all my fault. My stomach hurt from not only starving myself for week's but at the thought of my siblings and grandmother hating my gut's for the many sin's I have committed last christmas. The pain was too much to handle and I had to make it stop, So the next morning I planned to make the pain stop completely. I got up early in the morning and grabbed a pistol from the armory, I then made my way up the roof of the house. Placing the barrel at the left side of my head many images popped into my heads of all the happy memories throughout my life. Meeting Scoots and Sweetie Belle, playing with my siblings, when my uncle used to be nice to us and Braeburn, and the family reunions. But all that's now ancient history because of my Stupid Anon a Miss attempt. But before I could pull the trigger my Uncle and Braeburn found me and screamed at me to get down but I just gave them a sad smile and apologized before pulling the trigger. Unfortunately I forgot to load it so just up and jumped off the roof. As I fell my life literally flashed before my eye's before i hit the ground with a loud thump, before blacking out completely I heard my Aunt scream for an ambulance and then Moment's later the last thing I heard before blacking out completely was siren's echoing in the distance before my vision went completely black. When I finally came to I found myself inside of a hospital bed in a full body cast, I was surprised that I survived the fall especially since it was a 2 story drop head first. I looked around and was shocked to find Applejack by my side who was quick to respond happily, as it turn's out Braeburn called AJ and told her everything that happened and she Granny and Big Mac drove all the way here as fast as they could. Applejack informed me that I've been out for a whole week and had numerous surgeries to keep me alive and that she was happy that I survived. I was shocked that she was happy to see me after everything I've done to her, soon I began to weep at what she said to me and I said " I'm sorry big sis" Over and over again. I knew saying this wasn't enough but I just wanted to let my sister know that I was sorry for everything, and to my surprise Applejack gently hugged me and said "I forgive you sugarcube, I'm just happy to see you alive and well. And I'm sorry for what I said back home I didn't mean it, your not a mistake your the best sister I've ever had and nothing and I mean nothing will ever change that. No matter what stupid thing you've done I'll never hate you" I was so happy that my big sis forgave me despite the fact Sunset still held a grudge against her and the others, I wanted to hug her back so badly but due to the body cast it was impossible so i just settle on resting my head gently on her shoulder. Then a moment later Big Mac and Granny smith came in as well and were just as happy to see me alive, I was kind of scared to see my brother but to my surprise he walked up and hugged me too and apologized for being so hostile and begged for my forgiveness. As it turn's out these past 4 1/2 month's everyone moved on from Big Mac's embarrassing video and he along with Applejack no longer had to deal with anymore taunting. Also he and Miss Cheerilee were on good term's with each other despite her still feeling awkward in his presence, and Sugar Bell despite the breakup and that she's now dating her friend Party Favor eventually forgave Big mac and the three of em became friends. With that I forgave my brother and he and Granny Smith forgave me too and eventually we were brought together into a family group hug as I cried tear's of joy to have my family back on my side again.
But that's not the end of my tale, my redemption eventually started the following week.......................................................
" Then a few days layer I was officially let out of my body cast" Apple bloom said as she continued her story." However I had to stay an extra few days until I could walk slightly, but during my time in the hospital I learned that Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle were brought back home due to similar situations at their school's. I was happy to know that they were alive and well and I was even more happy after Granny Smith announced that I was gonna come back home to canterlot as well. I was so happy to know that in a few days I would officially be reunited with my best friends"
As she continued to talk Scoots and Sweetie Belle couldn't help but smile, saying to themselves how happy they were to have such a wonderful friend and Spoon's felt lucky as well to be friends with the group as well.
Back home and redemption
The next day I was given my crutches and was officially checked out of the hospital. We then went back to my Aunt and Uncles place and collected my things and after saying goodbye to Braeburn we made our way to the airport. During the plane ride I couldn't help but shed tear's of joy knowing that I would soon be reunited with my friends and that I was together with my family again. After an hour flight we soon arrived back in Canterlot, as i limped off the terminal I found Sweetie Belle and Apple bloom waiting for me who were quick to gently bring me into a group hug. It felt so good to be reunited with my best friend's and I vowed to never make a big mistake like Anon a Miss again. On our first week back our families got together to discuss how we would be educated for the remainder of our freshman year as homeschooling would be too much of a hassle and online classes would be too expensive, so our sister's decided to try and pursue Principle Celestia and Vice principle Luna to revoke our expulsion and let us come back to Canterlot high. After hearing what we've been through for these past 4 1/2 months they agreed to think it over. After a week we were officially welcome back to Canterlot high but some conditions had to be made, such as we weren't allowed to have our smartphones on campus and computer time had to be monitored but we didn't mind as long as we were together again. Also vice principle Luna had given us a security escort for the past few days but it was quickly withdrawn as non of the student's did anything to us, as it turn's out they completely moved on from the Anon a Miss incident and no longer were out for our head's after they heard what we've been through 4 /12 month's ago. We found it hard to believe at first until lunch time, when I was making my way to our usual table I ended up slipping off one of my crutches and fell on the floor as my tray of food fell right on top of me. Luckily i didn't land on my broken leg but I still felt embarrassed being covered in food, but to my surprise non of the student's pointed and laughed at me it was just silence. Then suddenly Gilda and her gang walked towards me, I was nervous at first but shocked when Gilda did something me and no one else ever expected from her.............................she helped me up, and even asked me if I was alright. And I told her that I was ok and I was really grateful that she was helping me despite what I did to her , then Lightning dust walked up and grabbed my crutches for me as Cirrus Cloud helped wipe the food off of me. After I got my crutches back I thanked Gilda and her crew for the help and she replied " no prob" and she even asked if we wanted to sit with them which we politely accepted, and Lightning even bought me another tray of food. After that me and the girl's realized that the student body really did forgive us for everything last Christmas, and it warmed my heart knowing that we got all our friend's back along with some new ones.
back to the present
"So from that point on we were genuinely forgiven by everyone in the student body, I tell ya I was so relieved that nobody had no hard feelings towards us anymore" Bloom said as she was about to wrap up her story." Principle Celestia even decided to revoke the small conditions she made for us after we proved that we could be trusted with having our phones on campus and that we took computer time seriously, and we soon befriended Spoon's here after realizing the reason why she bullied us as well and were happy to have a new friend to our little group"
As Bloom continued Spoons smiled warmly at the fact her former enemy now thinks of her as one of her best friend's unlike Diamond Tiara.
" During our first week back we decided to try apologizing to you again, but after Spoons informed us about what you did to Pinkie, fluttershy and the others when they tried apologizing so we decided to give you space" Apple bloom said. " That is until the infamous Camp Everfree trip. At first you remained hostile and distant from everyone the whole week, but on the final day of camp after you saved our lives from the corrupted Glorisia you were all happy and ongoing no longer cold and hostile. When we got back from camp we were suspicious at the fact that your attitude changed drastically and we wondered why you were so happy. Even though there was a possibility you forgiven everyone since 4 1/2 month's seemed like an appropriate time to forgive someone, but we didn't hear anything about you forgiving everyone and you and even our sister's didn't once mention Anon a Miss. So one day we decided to investigate, during study hall we overheard our sisters mentioning something about Anon a Miss and we confronted them. That's when they told us the whole thing about the memory erasing stone that wiped your memory of the infamous incident last Christmas. We were both shocked at the fact our sisters used a magic stone to erase her memory, but honestly we couldn't blame them for taking a drastic measure like that especially with how you treated theme throughout the 4 1/2 month's whenever they tried apologizing. So we willingly agreed to keep it a secret as well. But then 9 month's later your memory soon came back and here we are now"
"Yeah we are" Sunset said quietly. After hearing out Bloom's story she started to recollect the events that have transpired since last year as she took a sip of her Frappuccino. The Anon a Miss incident, her friends betraying her, nearly killing them whenever they tried apologizing, the Camp Everfree incident, the stone erasing half her memories, her memory returning, and reconciling with her friends. As these event's clouded her she questions herself what would happen if something like this happened again and she was framed for it? Would they believe her and learn from their mistakes or not?
"Well thank you guy's for telling me your side's" Sunset said trying to act calm and collected." But before I reach my verdict I got one more thing to ask you Bloom"
"Of course Sunset, what do you want to know?" Bloom asked.
"What happened to your Uncle and Braeburn?" Sunset asked. " Last I heard the two of em were arrested"
After hearing Sunset's question she hesitated to answer that after what had happened to them, but she knew there was no running away from this. If she was gonna make amends with sunset then she had to let some skeletons out of her closet even if it meant rewinding those horrible event's in her head all over again.
"Well" She began." After I was released from the hospital and brought back home to Canterlot, Granny Smith made a long phone call to a family friend in Texas who was also a deputy. She informed him about how my uncle treated me , Braeburn, and his wife. So long story short my Uncle was soon arrested but he wasn't alone, Braeburn still felt guilty about being forced to beat me that he got himself arrested as well but he didn't stay too long. After the judge found out that Braeburn was forced by his dad to do it and that he regretted everything he did to me ,he was released after only two day's, hehe even though I told him hundred's of times that I forgave him and that it wasn't his fault he still sends me and the family apology letter's. But as for my uncle he was given 15 years in prison for both child and spousal abuse, and my aunt officially filed for divorce as soon as his sentence was given. I hoped that time behind bar's would turn my uncle back to the nice guy I knew when I was five, but it was never gonna happen now"
"What do you mean Apple bloom?" Sunset replied.
".....................................................He's dead" Bloom said as tear's started to form in her eye's while Sunset looked in shocked at her answer"
"Your Uncle's dead?" Sunset said in a shocked tone. " What happened Bloom?"
" A week after his sentence was given, my uncle was sitting alone in the prison mess hall eating his lunch until some inmates walked up to him" Apple bloom continued with tears forming more and more." They started to tease and mock him about his upcoming divorce from my aunt and his brewery shutting down, at first he tried to ignore them but when one of them who was gonna be released next week teased that he'll take "good care" of my aunt once he's out of there. My uncle finally snapped and charged toward the inmate who made that remark and a prison fight soon started, at first my uncle had the upper hand and was two seconds away from strangling the inmate who made that comment, but suddenly one of his friends snuck up behind my uncle and stabbed him in the back multiple times with a makeshift shiv. The guard's soon walked over and broke up the brawl while restraining the inmate who stabbed my uncle. They soon came over to my uncle and the inmate he almost strangled to death and tended to each of em, luckily the other inmate wasn't too injured but my uncle's stab wound's were pretty severe and that he was losing large amount's of blood. By the time paramedic's arrived it was already too late and.......................my uncle passed away on the cold ground. His funeral was quiet, there was hardly anyone in the eulogy as my aunt no longer wanted anything to do with my uncle, Braeburn was scared too scared to attend as he felt looking at his dad's casket would haunt him with memories of his sin's. The only ones who were there were his former coworkers who showed the least bit of sympathy for him. Then a week after the funeral my aunt landed a job at a tech company and Braeburn decided to takes some training when he graduates high school next year so that he can one day take over his dad's brewery and not make the same mistakes as him"
As she finished her story Bloom began to weep as Sunset watched in silence. She had no idea the poor girl has been through so much throughout the Anon a Miss incident, AJ hating her gut's, her brother nearly tearing her limb from limb, getting sent away, her uncle abusing her and Braeburn, her depression through it all, and her tragic suicide attempt, and now her uncles death. As she looked at her broken form she couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor girl.
"And worst of all , his death was my fault" Apple bloom sniffed.
"Bloom.................." Sunset began but was interrupted.
"NO SUNSET!!!!!!!!!" Bloom boomed." This whole thing WAS my fault!!!! I'm the one who came up with this stupid Anon a Miss shit in the first place and look where it's almost got me. I nearly lost everything from my little plan, My sister, my family, friend's, and my reputation. And worst of all I dragged my friend's into this whole mess as well and they almost lost everything as well. Who knows what would have happened if we continued with this whole thing, the whole school would have been a literal blood bath. And look at what we almost did to you, we tricked our sister's into believing you were only pretending to be their friend and that you were only using them to spread their darkest secret's and we made it believable. We hurt you so badly Sunset and we can never make up for it, If you have committed suicide I would never forgive myself. I should have been the one to get abandoned and beaten not you, I'm a terrible excuse of a sister and a friend. If my Ma and Pa were alive right now they'd be so disappointed in me. I hurt you so much Sunset over my petty jealousy, I should have done the right thing and confronted my sister about my feelings but NO I chose the coward's route and tried to ruin your life to have my sister all to myself like a spoiled brat. I'm so sorry for everything Sunset, I know you'll never forgive me for everything but please forgive my friend's I'm the one who started this whole mess I'm the only one who deserves to suffer in your hand's. So just get on with it already strike me down like the evil little bitch I AM!!!!!!!!!!!"
With nothing more to say Apple bloom just held her head low and cried her eye's out as the other's watched their friend break down into an emotional mess. But no one felt more bad for the young Sophomore more than sunset, While she was secretly still disappointed at the three of em for nearly ruining her reputation she couldn't help but feel sorry for them as well. Even though they messed up she knew that they regretted everything they've done to her just like Flash and their sisters. After a long while Sunset got off from her seat and sat next to the crying girl and brought her into a loving embrace which she was quick to return as she cried on the fiery teen's shoulder.
"SHHHhhhhhhh It's ok Bloom, It's ok" Sunset said warmly." I forgive you all of you" After a moment Bloom calmed down a bit after hearing sunset's verdict and was visibly shocked at her answer.
"You forgive us?" Bloom sniffed." Why?"
"Because Bloom, while a part of me is disappointed at you for nearly ruining my reputation just because of some petty jealousy and worst of all dragging your friend's into the whole mess as well" sunset replied." But after hearing you guy's out, I know you three as well as Flash are truly sorry for what you've done to me and after what you've been through from your brief separation I think you three have been punished enough"
As Sunset made her statement, Bloom and her friends breathed a sigh of relief.
"BUT" Sunset continued sternly." I want you three to promise me a few things"
"Sure Sunset what is it?" Scootaloo asked as Sunset written out her orders for the three of em.
"One I want you guy's to promise me, the next time you feel left out or depressed to talk to your sisters and me don't go using any drastic measures to get their attention" Sunset began." Two I want you guy's to write what you did to me to Twilight and to apologize as well, and that goes for you too Flash. And three I need you three to look after things for us cause me, Flash, and the girls are graduating next year and we need someone to look after the school and to ensure something like this never happen's again. And don't worry me and the girl's will be sure to train you guy's to be prepared for any magic mishap that might happen in or outside of school. While you guy's think you don't have magic in ya, it's not completely true. Deep down me and the girl's know you got the magic of friendship inside of you, you just haven't fully embraced it yet and me and the girl's are gonna help you three as well as Silver spoon here to activate your magical abilities. Do you guy's understand?"
"We understand sunset and thank you" The three of em said in unisen before walking over and bringing Sunset into a group hug which she quickly returned, and Spoon's and flash joined into the group hug as well as Mr cake and Mrs Cake who just walked in from the back stared at the group proudly for reconciling with Sunset. During the hug Sunset couldn't help but shed a tear, while what they all did was wrong she know's deep down that they still care about them and regret everything they've done and while the memories of this horrendous incident might not go away for a while she know's that they'll overcome this one day and look back at Anon a Miss and laugh. After a few minute's the group hug ended and sunset spoke again.
" You know" She began." I'm meeting the girl's at the mall after this, would you guy's like to join us?"
The five friends then thought it over before reaching a conclusion.
"Sure I'm game" Scootaloo said.
"Me too'' Spoons replied
"The mall sound's nice" Sweetie bell said excepting Sunset's invitation.
"I'm in, i was actually planning on doing some shopping there today anyway's" Flash said
"Sound's good thanks Sunset" Bloom replied while showing her gratitude/
"Awesome" Sunset said happy they agreed to spend the day at the mall with her and her friend's." But first let's not let these baked good's and our drink's go to waste. Yo Mr and Mrs cake can we get some to go containers over here?"
"You got it Sunset" The couple said as they went back to grab some to go containers.
After a few seconds the group collected their leftovers and said goodbye to Mr and Mrs cake before making their way out of the cafe to head over to the mall to meet up with the others. These month's event's have been insane many mistakes were made but these can be overcome no matter how hard it might be they'll get through this together and one day hopefully they'll look back at this whole incident and have a good laugh about it like true friends.
