As the car carrying Marcus and Wrench drove through Canter City, they were both surprised at the lack of CToS, and the excess of things to hack.

"Never been one for small town life. Not enough chicks." Wrench said.

"You with a girl? Get outta here!" Marcus said. "I mean, I've only seen you without that mask once."

"Well, I was being interrogated that time." Wrench shot back. "Oh, here we are, Canterlot High School! Wonder if they've heard of King Arthur."

Marcus parked the car, and headed towards the entrance. As they walked in, they were surprised to see what you would expect from a small-town high school.

Awards, Sports memorabilia, and stares.

Lots of them. Students gave them wide-eyed looks as they headed to and from their classes. Wrench was in his element. Marcus was...well, not so much.

"2301. The den of The Fox." Wrench said.

"Let's go!" Marcus said as he opened the door. There, sitting and waiting for them, was Aiden Pearce.

"The Fox in his glory!" Wrench said.

"Wrench, I presume?" Aiden said, shaking Marcus's hand.

"Yep."

"Nice to meet you both." Aiden said.

"Where's the scapegoat?" Wrench asked.

"She takes her classes with the Principal now. She got jumped last night." Aiden said.

"Shit." Marcus replied.

"Yeah, yeah. Take a look." Aiden said, sliding a laptop towards them. Marcus and Wrench spent a few minutes looking through the secrets Anon-A-Miss had spilled.

"That's not right!" Wrench said.

"Amen to that." Marcus replied. Aiden sighed and nodded.

"Whoever they are, they're good. I can't access the account, thanks to MyStable's security protocols. It's near CToS level." Aiden said. "Plus, a hack would put the culprits on alert, and they could do even more damage."

"So we need an opportunity." Marcus said.

"Which I think we have." Aiden replied. "There's a football game tonight, versus the Crystal Prep Shadows, here. I think their Jumbotron could be useful."

"Shit." Wrench said. "A few hacks, we have our most effective message-sender in DedSec history!"

"Game's at seven." Aiden said.

"We'll be there." Marcus said.

"It's GAME TIME!" Wrench cackled.

=====================

Sunset walked through the halls to her usual allotment of glares and insults. But, ever since she met Aiden Pearce, she didn't feel as bothered by them as she usually was. In fact, she was feeling a bit better. She started to smile, for the first time in quite a while.

"Excuse me." she said, slipping past a few students that tried to block her path. Slipping into the Library, she went to her hideout. When Anon-A-Miss first started, she had found a doorless closet in the Library. It had a previously contained boxes of books, but she had smuggled a few blankets, some snacks and water, a lantern, and a pillow into the alcove, and rigged up a pull-cart as a rudimentary door. It was the only real place she could vanish to on school grounds. Pulling out her phone, she browsed Anon-A-Miss's latest posts. The unfortunate victims this week were Jockey Ride, a Sophomore, and Wild Run, a Junior. It showed them both in the locker room, cavorting around while in a state of undress. Sunset turned off her phone and sighed.

"Nice hideout."

Sunset turned to see Aiden Pearce standing outside, visible through the sliver of light left by the door.

"Thanks." Sunset said. "Took me a while to find it."

"I got some help for Anon-A-Miss. Two DedSec guys from San Francisco, Marcus and Wrench. Do you by any chance, know where the Jumbotron controls are?"

"In the press box." Sunset said. "Why?"

"We're going to show Anon-A-Miss who they are fucking with, for all to see." Aiden said, before leaving. Sunset contemplated his words for a moment.

"All to see?" she thought. "What's that mean?"

=====================

Canterlot High Football Field, Seven PM.

Aiden stepped out of his car, followed by Marcus and Wrench. As expected, the grandstands were full of people from both schools.

"Halftime?" Aiden said.

"Halftime." Marcus and Wrench replied. "We got the message."

"Good. Enjoy yourselves for a bit. Meet outside the Press box." Aiden said before walking off. Marcus and Wrench headed for the Grandstands, to seats near the press box.

=======================

Halftime, 8:43 PM.

Aiden headed back from the concession stand towards the press box. As planned, Marcus and Wrench were waiting. Marcus broke the lock on the Press Box door, and to their relief, there was no one inside, as the score was kept in a separate room. Aiden hacked into the Jumbotron, while Marcus placed a USB into the Control Port.

"We're in." Aiden said, tapping away on his phone. "Send the package?"

"Send it, and let's amscray." Wrench said. Aiden tapped SEND on his phone, and they rushed out.

======================

The group of Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow, Rarity, and Pinkie were in the stands, watching the game with bated breath. Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were a few rows above them. As the clock on the Jumbotron signalled halftime, the jumbotron display suddenly flickered, and went out. Then, in bright green for all to see, the DedSec logo was displayed.

"Hello, assholes of the world." the DedSec logo spoke. "May we have your attention for a few moments? Good. We come with a warning. Anon-A-Miss, this here's for you."

The entire stadium fell silent at those three words.

"We know what you have done. You've ruined the lives and spread the secrets of countless students, and you blame it on an innocent person, one clean of her crimes. We simply can't have that happen. We've brought down those called untouchable. We brought down CToS. No one is safe from us. But..Anon-A-Miss, We...will find you. We...will stop you. We...will expose you. We...will bring the truth to light. You...will get what you deserve and more. WE...ARE...DEDSEC. Anon-A-Miss, your days...are numbered."

As the Jumbotron display faded, several images began to play...A guillotine with JUSTICE written on it decapitated a skeleton with Anon-A-Miss written on it...A roach called "Anon-A-Miss" being squashed by a boot, with DEDSEC written on it...and more. As the DedSec Logo displayed one last time before the Jumbotron returned to normal, the stadium was deathly silent. Scootaloo was the first to speak to Sweetie Belle.

"We're screwed." she said.

"We're more than screwed." Sweetie replied. "I heard about them on the news. They're hackers! They took down that CToS thing in two different cities!"

"We gotta tell 'em!" Scootaloo said.

"No!" Applebloom whispered. "We can't! We'll change the password or something!"

"Girls?" Rainbow said. "I think...we're gonna go."

"Yeah, let's go." The three of them replied. As the eight of them walked off, Aiden, Marcus, and Wrench watched from afar.

"Now, the fun begins." Aiden said, giving Marcus and Wrench fist-bumps.

"Let's get this show on the road!" Wrench replied as they drove off from the field, towards the school.
