Pack's Loyalty
Chapter 1: A friendship that was frozen. A heart that is shattered
"Rumours are started by haters, spread by fools and accepted by idiots"
It was a dark and cold night. Snow was falling and landing on any surface the flakes could get a chance to land, making it look like a white blanket. The night sky was a perfect blend of black and white. The temperature was a solid -3°C, so it was perfect for freezing. Today was 23rd December. Only two more days until the happiest day of the year: Christmas. Unfortunately, there was one teenage girl that wasn't feeling any holiday cheer. Her name was Sunset Shimmer: former unicorn, ex-bully, redeeming anti-hero, Canterlot High defender...and now a backstabbed young lass.
Sunset was trudging through the snow, with a look on her face that resembled someone who just realized that her loved one just died and she came back from the funeral.
Reason being that after a few good sleepovers with her "friends" she thought that she finally knew the meaning of being with family. Too bad for her it was all taken away from her. All because of that cyber-demon Anon-a-Miss. For the past few weeks, there were secrets popping up left and right. First her friends, then everyone else. Worse part was everyone believed it was her, including her friends and for what? She had nothing to gain from it.
"Why...after all I had done for them?" she whimpered. She still remembered what they said:
"Why Should we listen to your lies?!"
"We thought you were our friend!"
"You Don't belong here, Sunset!"
A fresh stream of tears fell from her cheeks. Guess whoever said that Friendship is the greatest treasure must've been drinking or something. However, as she was walking she remembered that six students had backed her up. Sure, it made them outcasts but the fact they were there for her slightly warmed her up.
'Flash, Vinyl, Derpy…' she thought as she remembered those three who helped her when she was assaulted. 'Snips, Snails' those thoughts continued as she remembered her old henchmen taking her to the infirmary 'Scootaloo' she never really thought that Rainbow's "number one fan" would help her...although the post which showed the Rainbow Dash picture on a dartboard and a dart between the eyes still shocked her. Heck she still remembered the day that video of her was on the account
Flashback
"Aw great, another new post?" said one burly student
"Another Anon-a-Miss Post? Sunset is on a roll" Said a jock
"Just goes to show you: the more people change, the more they stay the same" lamented Octavia.
"Hah, Trixie always knew she was still a sleaze!" said Trixie in a smug voice
The Rainbooms noticed and immediately groaned. After their secrets were posted, they thought that Sunset had reverted back into her old ways. They thought that they were in the right. However, their thought trains had broken when they heard what was said.
"No way! Is this for real?"
"What the hell?! Isn't she her number one fan?!"
"Those two are like sisters! Aren't they?!"
"Looks like Rainbow Trash lost some of her fanbase!"
"I think Scootaloo may be a better liar than I thought"
Confused, The Rainbooms looked at their phones and they got shown a video. Rainbow pressed play and immediately regretted it.
It showed Scootaloo with a dart in her hand and was going to launch it at a dartboard...with a picture of Rainbow Dash in the centre! The Dart hit between the eyes and Scootaloo began smirking. "Aw, yeah, still got it!" she cackled. "Alright Rainbow Ass, you say you're fast? Try and dodge this!" the dart left her hand and landed right next to the previously thrown one. What she said next really chilled everyone's bones:
"Oh, I've been waiting to do this...This will be so much fun..." The video stopped.
The whole cafeteria was in silence taking in this new information. Rainbow's "biggest fan" hated her guts? As soon as Scootaloo came into the Cafeteria, everyone looked with scared looks: her face, rather than being bright and full of innocence, was dark and had a cold glare on her face as she scanned the cafeteria. Silently, she got her lunch and found a place of solitude.
When Rainbow saw her surrogate sister, her face was in denial, evident by the quick shaking of her head and her muttering "it can't be true"
Sunset had also saw the whole thing, eyes wide, and began to walk out the other way. Gut instinct told her that it was probably best to not get involved.
Flashback end
That was one surprising day. Rainbow tried to talk to her but what came next instead was Scootaloo giving her one powerful punch into her stomach. As she was crouching, holding it, Scootaloo simply said:
"I've been waiting to do that for over 3 years…" Then she walked off muttering "Pathetic". Poor Rainbow. The pain in her stomach was nothing compared to her pain in her heart. Naturally, she blamed Sunset for turning Scoots against her, going so far as punching her cheek.
And to make matters worse, more secrets were spilled and she was ganged up by three boys who were pissed about their secrets being spilled. Luckily the six mentioned above had helped her get away to safety.
Flashback start
"You're dead Sunset!" Said an athletic student as he gave a swift punch to her stomach. "How'd you find out about my stuffed bear?!"
"You told everyone about my family hell?! You are going to die for this!" growled one of the artistic student as he back-handed Sunset. "I'll bury you alive in front of the fucking statue!"
"Oh, I'm gonna enjoy ripping your lips off, you fucking prick!" snarled Score. He was especially pissed over the fact that everyone found out he was juicing. Now he was banned from football until further notice. So he began kicking Sunset right in the stomach. She then began to crouch down, holding her stomach, coughing up blood.
"It's not me…" She wheezed out. They were about to continue until three voices rung out.
"HEY!"
They turned around to see three pissed students. They recognised the face as Flash Sentry, Vinyl Scratch and Derpy Hooves
"Hitting a woman, now that's just low!", Said Flash in an outraged manner.
"Stay outta this, Brad! This bitch needs to pay!" Yelled out Score.
"For some pieces of trash on the web?! Are you deluded or something?! IT. AIN'T. HER!" yelled out Vinyl
"She's messing with you! This she-demon went back to her old ways! Now we'll bury her right now!"
"Seriously?! Do you bastards still believe that gossip rag?!" Snarled Derpy. Flash and Vinyl could've sworn that they saw Derpy's lazy eye align with her good one.
Not wanting to leave any witnesses, the three boys ran up to the three students with their fists raised. Whilst the fight was happening, three smaller kids walked up to Sunset and helped her move to the Nurse's office.
"This...is...going crazy!" Wheezed a young, pudgy boy named Snips. Sunset sure weighed a lot.
"You're... telling me! Can't believe they still think it's her!" grunted a lanky boy named Snails, as he held Sunset other arm over his shoulder
"Hurry up! Those three will smell a rat if we don't get out of here!" said Scootaloo, checking to make sure any more vengeful students were coming. She was more concerned about Sunset than the fact that she had many people whispering about that video.
Flash, Vinyl and Derpy: With a few bruises but the attackers under their boots looked on with hopeful smiles… too bad they didn't notice a group of students noticing the whole thing
Sunset looked to see the three young juniors helping her up before she blacked out.
Flashback end
As grateful as she was, she couldn't help but feel a slight bit of remorse. By helping her they ended up being the School Outcasts but they didn't mind. They cared for her wellbeing more than their reputations.
Sunset let out an empty sigh. "What's the use of even living?" she lamented as she continued to trudge through the snow. She put her back to the wall and crouched down, allowing the frozen temperature to seep into her skin.
If she dies from frostbite, at least her ex-friends would get their Christmas wish… however she heard a gentle voice before it was lights out for her.
A/N That Right. I'm doing an Anon-a-Miss Story. I fucking love that story line!
But My one is going to be different:
1: Absolutely NO FORGIVENESS! The phrase is "Fuck a fake friend. Where your real friends at?" not "The magic of friendship will save the day"
2: Scootaloo isn't a part of the Anon-a-Miss account. First, She and rainbow dash are not related, so it just sounds like a fangirl syndrome. And second, I've always had this idea that Scootaloo was pretending to be a fan of Rainbow, when really she would rather bang her head on a wall than listen to her yack.
3: Gave Sunset some students to believe her. Flash, Vinyl and Derpy because the comic didn't show them being hostile. Snips and Snails because of Dainn's story: Anon-a-miss. And Scootaloo as well: I'll show later as the story progresses
