One by one, people's heads started to turn from all around the room. Even though Sunset couldn't see behind her, whispers began to spread, the sound chilling her rigid spine. Even though her friends were there to cheer her up, it still didn't silence the voices around her. She sighed. Hopefully this'll be over soon.
Inhaling, Sunset managed to look up from the floor. Watching her, with a concerned frown, was Fluttershy. Meeting her eyes, they widened.
"I'm sure they'll stop soon..." the timid girl said.
Sunset smacked her lips, "Yeah well, I'm used to it."
"Gosh. It's been a long time since you've said that." Fluttershy realized.
"Guess so." Sunset was aggravated.
"Look." Twilight interrupted, pointing to the stage.
Emerging from backstage was...Snails. Though he was quite far away, Sunset could still make out his green, ragged hair which covered his face as he carried a side of a large poster. As he walked backwards onto the stage, Principle Celestia motioned closer to them. In the shadows of the back portion of the stage, holding the other side of the poster was Snips, a much less scrawny, yet much shorter boy. Of course.
"Whaddya reckon that is?" Applejack questioned.
"Well we'd know if those two could keep the poster up long enough." Rainbow Dash snickered.
Dash had a point, the two boys began to wobble as they got closer to the principal, letting the large paper fall over their heads. Sunset could barely make out what was on the poster besides the colors blue and gold, the colors that represent Wondercolts. Sunset sighed in relief. This was a school spirit thing. Nothing to worry about. She rested her shoulders as she began to see students turn their heads toward the stage, rather than look at her.
Snips and Snails struggled, laughing awkwardly in unison as they tried to keep the poster up. Principle Celestia cringed at the scene before her. She grabbed an end of the obnoxious paper that drooped over the head of Snails, and lifted it, revealing the confused face of the scrawny boy underneath. Vice Principle Luna did the same on the other side, revealing the rather pleased face of Snips beneath the flimsy poster's end.
Sunset couldn't help but laugh at this. If only the school could use magic like she and her friends could, this would have gone by a lot faster. Then again, maybe it is a good thing that only Sunset and her friends have the usage of magic. In a human world, magic can go haywire if put into the wrong hands. At least these seven could handle it.
Now that the poster was finally revealed, Sunset could make out what was on it. In bold letters, over a blue and gold background, it read: "The Fall Formal" in smaller letters below it, it said: "But better!"
Was this really happening? Why was this happening?
Not only was the whole school just reminded of what Sunset Shimmer had done just two years ago, being remembered as a monster rather than someone who has changed overtime, but now this. The Fall Formal was what caused the mess in the first place.
"No...it can't-they can't be-" Sunset was at a loss of words.
"...Fall...Formal?" Twilight sounded confused.
"That there was when...uh..." Applejack trailed off.
"When I turned into that raging she-demon. Yeah." Sunset finished Applejack's sentence.
