My own take on a anon-a-miss au where sunset shimmer returns to equestria to spend time with twilight but when she goes back though,the portal has made her diffrent, will she be able to recover her old life or find build new one

(Warning: Anon-A-Miss may be a Major plot point of this story however at times it will be taking a backseat to other parts of it as I do not want it to be mainly Anon-A-Miss focused)

When a terrorist cult attacks Canterlot City bent on abducting them, the Rainbooms find themselves dragged into a war in the shadows of the world as they’re rescued by an elite strike force comprised of the top men and women of the US Armed Forces – all of them Real American Heroes. As they fight to secure their freedom to return home safely, two questions linger in the Rainbooms’ minds – why are they being targeted? And when all else fails… will they?

GI Joe character minis - designed in Hero Forge - are all my own design, and the exact GI Joe story canon is my idea.

By the way, long as I'm here, why is there no G.I. Joe series tag on this site? Seriously.

Rainbow Dash, on her way out from school, notices that one person didn't come out yet, despite the time since the bell rang. Perhaps against her better judgement, she goes back in to keep Sunset Shimmer from making a horrible mistake.
Tensions rise, loyalty is tested, and perhaps, a broken soul can be fixed.

Content warning--
--Several profanities("Fuck" is used in a couple of cases)
--Repeated mentions of suicide

When the girls share embarassing stories about each other, Flash cant help but chime in with his own of Sunset.

Sunset hesitantly lets a very enthusiastic Princess Twilight take her new cellphone through the mirror, so that Twilight can study it in Equestria.
It does not work. At all.

Thanks, everypony!

When Sunset confronts the Dazzlings on her own, she gets bullied by the three girls. Depressed and alone, she debates internally if the Rainbooms and Twilight truly are her friends until a certain blue haired girl comes to her rescue.

Sunset's favorite alley cat has always been distant, only sometimes letting her get close enough to actually pet her. Not wanting an old friend to suffer out in a terrible storm, she's determined to show her a little kindness and a better life.

After a chance encounter at the Starswirled Festival, Fluttershy realised that Sonata Dusk is also a Skull Crusher fan.

When the band's tour comes to their town, a night of fun is guaranteed.

Life for Sunset Shimmer took a turn for the worse when Anon-a-Miss single handedly sowed the seeds of distrust amongst her friends and the entire school, but things got worse when the identity of Anon-a-Miss is finally revealed. Unable to forget how those she thought were her friends and family were quick to assume she had relapsed to her old ways of being a bully, Sunset turns her back on them as they once did to her and is prepared to live a life of shutting out friendship entirely. That is until she happens upon a kind stranger who not only could be the friendly ear to listen to her problems, but even teach her things about friendship that even the Princess of Friendship herself could never teach.

Days after her banishment to a new world, Adagio Dazzle stands at the edge of the ocean, hungry. She seeks a morsel not merely of the sea's bounty, but of the power her siren body once wielded, of the knowledge that her days as a dominant force of nature are not yet over.

She has a lot to learn about the human body.
