Here's the next chapter, sorry for the wait I hope you enjoy it and your comments are very much appreciated.

Cranky Doodle is busy grading exam papers when he heard a commotion outside his classroom, annoyed at the interruption Cranky got off his seat and went to investigate. When he opened the door he was meet with the sight of a large number of students stampeding down the hallways.

“What in blazes is going on here?!” Cranky shouted at the students but they are in too much of a panic to listen.

Cranky didn’t know what to make of this situation, but then one of the students ran into his classroom and immediately hid under his desk. Cranky was confused by this action and decided to ask her what she was doing.

“Now why are you hiding under my desk, there better be a good explanation for this?” Cranky asks the female student.

“Mr. Cranky sir, it’s Sunset, she’s gone she-demon again!” She told him. “Hurry and close that door before she finds me and turns me into her slave.”

“it’s Miss Shimmer is it? I knew she would be back to doing her old tricks.” Cranky said as he walked towards the phone on the wall. “I’d better let Principal Celestia know what’s going on.”

In Principal Celestia’s office, said woman is looking over an email from Mystable, telling her that they cannot disclose information on the Anon A Miss account. Celestia sighs in frustration, she was limited in what she could do about Anon A Miss since she’s just a principal. Her eyes wander to her left hand, specifically at her engagement ring. A small smile spreads on her lips as she recalled how her boyfriend Discord proposed to her last night, she had been over the moon. But then Luna informed her that Sunset had found students who actually believed she was innocent and want to help her, she was very happy for her.

“I’m hopping she’ll be happy with this as well.” Celestia whispered to herself as she reached into her bag and pulled out some documents.

She was then interrupted by her intercom and she put away the documents and pressed a button on the intercom.

“What is it?” Celestia asks.

“Principal Celestia, you have a call from Cranky Doodle.” The voice of her secretary spoke.

“Very well, put him through.” Celestia said as she picked up her phone. “Hello?”

“Principal Celestia, Sunset Shimmer is causing trouble again.” Cranky spoke.

“What kind of trouble?” Celestia asks, a tinge of worry in her voice.

“I have a student here who says that Sunset has gone She-demon again.” Cranky told her.

Principal Celestia froze upon hearing those words, but she quickly snapped out of it. “Mr. Doodle stay with the student, lead her out of the school.”

“Okay-wait….the student says that Sunset has made it so that nobody can leave the school. She’s probably tampered with the locks, so much for turning over a new leaf.” Cranky complained.

“Alright, for the meantime stay where you are I’ll alert the rest of the faculty.” Principal Celestia said as she hung up the phone and pressed the button to the microphone of the school PA system. “Attention Faculty and staff, we have an emergency situation.”

All around the school, the teachers and staff stopped what they are doing and paid close attention to the announcement by the Principal.

“A student by the name of Sunset Shimmer is currently suffering from a mental breakdown and is targeting her fellow students.” Celestia said, she used mental breakdown instead of turning into a demon as it sounded less crazy. “Please assist the students in getting to safety but be aware that the doors to exit the school have been tampered with and will not open so leaving the school is not an option.”

In the Library Miss Cheerily is gathering the students who are already in the library to study, they are all nervous about the announcement. Especially when Sunset’s name is mentioned.

“I can’t believe Sunset went mad.” A young student spoke nervously.

“Mad nothing, she probably turned into a demon again!” Another student said in a terrified tone.

“Now everyone please calm down, you heard Principal Celestia. We’ll stay put in the library until the situation is-”

Suddenly the door to the library burst open and startled the students, entering the library were five panic stricken students who immediately began searching for places to hide.

“Excuse me, you need to calm down-”

“Calm down?! Shimmer is after us and I for one don’t want to be made her slave!” A very panic stricken student cuts off Cheerily.

“Please relax, Principal Celestia has a handle on the situation.” Miss Cheerily tried to calm the student down.

“No offense but she’s just an ordinary human and Sunset got done tearing several people to pieces before coming back to school.” A panicked female student tells her. “Didn’t you see the Mystable post?!”

“You mean that was real?!” A young female student by the name of Diamond Tiara said in surprised horror.

“Then we’re all fucked!” another student shouts in fear.

“Most definitely.”

Everyone froze upon hearing that voice, a chill running up their spines as they all looked around frantically for the source of the voice.

“It doesn’t matter where you hide, I’ll always find you.” Sunset’s voice echoed around the library.

“Sunset, please listen. You don’t have to do this, you’re better than this!” Miss Cheerily pleaded with Sunset.

“You’re wrong, I was better off this way. I was weak and I let people walk all over me. But no more.” Sunset said as she appeared behind Cheerily. “I’m going to remind everyone the consequences of pissing me off.”

Cheerily’s mouth opens in shock as Sunset grabs her head with her glowing green right hand, Cheerily’s eyes start glowing green as she is now under Sunset’s control. The Students gasp in horror at their teacher’s mind being taken over by the demon, but it’s short lived as Sunset turns her attention on them.

“Next,” Sunset says with a predatory smile.

The students try to make a break for it but Sunset quickly grabs on to the heads of Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, both girls are utterly terrified as they feel their minds being cover in a fog before their eyes start glowing green. Sunset releases her two new slaves as she lunges forward to grab a student that is frozen in horror, he too becoming her mind controlled slave. Screams filled the library as Sunset turns everyone into her slaves. Sunset looks at her mind controlled slaves, a satisfied smile on her lips.

“Off to a great start so far, I do so enjoy it when they try to resist.” Sunset laughs but is interrupted by the PA announcement.

“I repeat, faculty and staff please don’t engage miss Shimmer I will bedealing with her myself.”

“Oh she will huh? As much as I would love to tell her off, I still have more slaves to recruit.” Sunset said with a smirk. “As for the rest of you, go wait in the auditorium.”

The mind controlled Students and teacher mindlessly started to walk out of the library and towards the auditorium. Sunset watched them go before she disappeared in a column of fire.

“Quick in here!” Rainbow said as she, the Rainbooms and the Crusaders entered their band practice room before locking it.

“Rainbow darling, I’m not sure it’s a good idea to hide in here of all places.” Rarity questioned Rainbow’s hiding spot.

“Hey it’s the best I can think under the situation we were in!” Rainbow defended as she flop on to a nearby chair.

“I reckon it won’t matter anyway.” Applejack said as she is leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. “There’s nowhere we can hide from Sunset and without our magic of friendship, we can’t stop her.”

There was silence in the room as everyone took in Applejack/s words, Sunset’s words from earlier echoing in their minds. Was she right? Where they in the wrong this whole time?

“So we just wait here for Sunset to come and make us her slaves?” Rainbow broke the silence as she ran her hand through her hair.

Rarity felt her sister press against her as she started trembling, Rarity brought her arm around Sweetie Belle and cupped her chin.

“Now don’t be afraid Sweetie Belle, I promise I won’t let Sunset harm you.” Rarity assured her sister as she gave her a comforting smile.

Sweetie Belle tried to give a smile back, but the guilt of all this mess being her fault caused it to falter.

“Rarity’s right, If worse come to worse we’ll at least make sure you girls get away safely.” Applejack said to the Crusaders.

Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo cast nervous glances at each other, Applebloom swallowed a lump in her throat as she looked at her big sister.

“Applejack?” Applebloom called her sister’s name.

“What is it Applebloom?”Applejack looked down at her sister expectantly.

“I…..” Appleboom hesitated, if she told her sister that she is Anon A Miss, then she would surely hate her. But Sunset was beaten up and turned into a demon because of her and like Applejack said, without their magic they’re powerless against Sunset. “Thank you.”

“Anytime Applebloom, that’s what family is for.” Applejack smiled down at her sister.

You lied to my face when you said I was family.

Applebloom’s eyes widen upon remembering Sunset’s words, tears welled up in her eyes as she started to cry. Applejack wrapped her arms around her sister and held on to her as she cried, Sweetie Belle also started to cry and was held by her sister. Scootaloo looked to Rainbow, but she had her hands covering her face, remembering what Sunset said about her part in her beating made Scootaloo realized that Rainbow wouldn’t be able to comfort her. But two hands on her shoulder caused her to look up at Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie.

“Don’t worry Scootaloo,we’ll protect you.” Fluttershy assured her as she smiled gently.

“Yeah, we won’t let that meanie Sunset get you!” Pinkie said cheerfully but inside she wasn’t so sure.

Scootaloo appreciated their words as she leaned against Fluttershy and she wrapped her arms around her, Pinkie soon joining them.

Rainbow sat with her hands against her face, her mind still on Sunset’s beating, her demon transformation and her part in it. Her friends, their sisters and her number one fan that she took to calling her little sister are all in danger because of her.

Damn it. Rainbow groaned internally.

“No!”

Everyone heard a scream outside and immediately tensed, they heard the sounds of rushing feet and are startled when the door handle starts moving but because Rainbow locked it it wouldn’t open.

“C’mon open!” a female voice can be heard outside the door.

“There’s no use hiding in there.”

The girls in the room eyes widen at hearing the voice, they covered their mouths to prevent themselves from gasping as to not give away their position.

“No please, don’t do this!” the girl begged.

“Begging won’t do you any good, I should know.”Sunset told her.

The girls heard the girl scream before she was suddenly silenced, they could hear Sunset giggle before she spoke.

“Go join the others.” Sunset ordered.

The girls heard shuffling of feet as they started to grow fainter until they could no longer hear it, everyone was silent, no one daring to make a move or risk alerting Sunset. For several agonizing minutes the girls waited, listening closely for any sign that Sunset had either left or is still outside.

Meanwhile Cranky is waiting in his classroom with several students, he is in a more cranky mood than usual due to the current situation. He glances over to the students that are huddled near the corner.

“Hey don’t you worry, Principal Celestia will have this mess all sorted out.” Cranky tried to assure his students.

But instead of feeling better the students suddenly had looks of horror, Cranky looked confused and as he opened his mouth to ask, he felt something on his head and his consciousness faded. Sunset stood behind Cranky, her hand on his head as she made him her slave. Sunset looks at the terrified students before going to make them her slaves, Sunset ordered them to the auditorium before disappearing.

Sunset’s face emerged from the wall in the girls bathroom and looks down to see a girl siting on the toilet with her arms wrapped around her legs and her head resting on her knees.

Hmph how ubvious. Sunset thought as her hand emerged from the wall and grabbed the girls head, causing her head to jerk up as her eyes glowed green.

Sunset smirked as she let go of the girl, after ordering her to the auditorium. Sunset then submerged into the wall and emerged in the hallway to grab several students and pulling them into the wall, only for them to come out in the auditorium with their eyes glowing green. Sunset was enjoying this game, the fear on her fellow students faces when they saw her, the way they begged her to spare them. It felt just like the old days before Twilight arrived.

“Twilight.” Sunset whispered her name, the girl who gave her a second chance and changed her life for the better, even during Anon A Miss Twilight was the only friend she had until..

“Sunset!”

Sunset slowly turned around to see an out of breath woman. “Principal Celestia.”
