Here's the sequel that you all asked for! I hope you enjoy!
Heart Note was giggling at her sister Sonata as she made funny faces at her as they played a board game. After the Battle of the Bands, the three eldest Dazzlings had taken upon themselves to learn how to control their powers to make sure they didn't feed on any negative energy. They also focus their attention more on being good role models for Heart Note, Adagio taking more of the role of the mother and Sonata and Aria took on the older sisters role, which was fine with Heart Note, since they were starting to act more like a family. Heart Note's phone vibrated, getting her attention.
"I have to go." Heart Note said. "Rainbow Dash just texted."
"Okay." Adagio said. "Be careful."
"I will." Heart Note smiled as she hugged Adagio and ran out the door. "See you guys later."
Heart Note panted as she made it to the front of the school, conveniently at the same time as Sunset Shimmer.
"I got your text, Rainbow Dash." Sunset said.
"Me...too." Heart Note said between breaths.
"Did something come through the portal? Is Equestrian magic on the loose? Did Twilight come back with a problem that only we can solve?!" Sunset asked.
"Has a giant cake monster covered all the cakes in the world in cake?!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed.
"Um, not exactly." Rainbow Dash said as she took out her guitar. One of her guitar strings was broken.
"Well, Sunset, I was just tellin' Rainbow Dash here that a broken guitar string doesn't really qualify as an emergency." Applejack said as she gestured to the broken string.
"It totally does!" Rainbow exclaimed.
"Really, Rainbow Dash!" Rarity said. "I was in the middle of sewing a very complex appliqué on my latest frock."
"And I was just about to tuck everyone in for the night at the shelter. Now we'll have to start stories all over again." Fluttershy said as she petted her bunny.
"Why would you send all of us an emergency text for a guitar string?" Sunset asked.
"Well, I was going to pony up and show our fans some awesome guitar licks, but I kinda need all six strings to do it." Rainbow explained as she gestured to the CMC. "Got any extra?"
Everyone, sans Rainbow Dash, groaned in annoyance. Sunset rolled her eyes and reached into her backpack. She pulled out a guitar string and handed it to Rainbow Dash.
"Here." Sunset said. "But everyone finished practicing for the day. I'm pretty sure all the music rooms are locked."
"No problem. The acoustics in the hallway are perfect for power chords." Rainbow then played a cord. "C'mon! Let's go!" The CMC and the mane five started to go into the building.
"You comin', guys?" Applejack asked.
"We'll catch up in a bit." Sunset said. Heart Note nodded in agreement. Applejack smiled and went into the building. Sunset took out her book.
"Are you going to send a message to Princess Twilight?" Heart Note asked.
"Yep." Sunset nodded. "If you want I could ask her to come over and we could tell you about Equestria?"
"That would be great!" Heart Note smiled.
"Alright." Sunset started writing.
Dear Princess Twilight,
How's life treating you in Equestria? Any cool new magic spells? It's been pretty quiet here at CHS since the Battle of the Bands. We still pony up when we play music, which Rainbow Dash just loves to show off. But I still can't quite grasp what it's all about. I would love to hear what you think about it when you get a sec. Heart Note says 'hi' and we would both love it if you could come over for a visit. I'm sure it would be helpful to her to know about where her powers come from. Plus, I have something I need to talk to you about too.
Your friend, Sunset Shimmer.
"There. Done." Sunset smiled at Heart Note. Heart Note smiled back.
A bus pulled up to the school, dropping off someone in a hoodie before leaving. The person in the hoodie was holding some strange device as they walked around the Wondercolt statue. When they touched the part of the statue that had the portal, it caught both Heart Note and Sunset's attention.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Sunset yelled at them. The person stopped and looked at Sunset and Heart Note before running away. "Wait! Stop!"
Heart Note and Sunset ran after them. The bus had just stopped long enough for the person to get on the bus and left just before Sunset and Heart Note could stop the person.
"Who was that?" Sunset asked in a hushed voice.
The next day, at the library in the school, Sunset, Heart Note, and the mane 5 were looking through different books to find out who it was that was sneaking around the Wondercolts statue.
"She was definitely doing something to the statue – or was going to." Sunset said as she paced back and forth in thought.
"Do you think she came through the portal from Equestria?" Fluttershy asked.
"I think we would've noticed that." Heart Note said. "She's probably from over here."
"Well, that's a relief." Applejack said as she was holding a book. "The last thing we need is another magical so-and-so bent on world domination comin' over from Equestria." She then winked at Sunset, who promptly gave her a knowing look. Heart Note, on the hand, looked down to the side in guilt. Sunset then put her arm around Heart Note in support.
"Don't worry." She whispered to her. "You'll get used to it." Heart Note smiled at her.
"Agreed, Applejack." Rarity said. "I have no interest in another fight against the powers of evil magic. The wear and tear on my wardrobe is just too much to keep up with." Rarity held out her arm to emphasis her clothes.
"Still, a mysterious figure snooping around the portal?" Sunset questioned as she started to pace again. "Don't you wanna know what she was up to?"
"I don't even want to guess." Fluttershy shuttered.
"Well, you don't have to." Rainbow Dash exclaimed as she ran up to the group with a book in her hand. "Because I've totally figured out who it was!"
"Ooh, ooh!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she went up to Rainbow Dash with a book in each hand. "A nighttime statue cleaner? A magical portal maintenance maintainer? A gardener?!" Heart Note giggled at Pinkie.
Rainbow Dash pushed Pinkie away as she continued to speak. "Seeing as how they got off a bus from the city and got back on a bus headed to the city, I'll bet they go to..."
"Crystal Prep." Everyone, sans Sunset and Heart Note, said together. Sunset and Heart Note gave each other a look of confusion.
"Yep." Rainbow Dash said. "With the Friendship Games starting tomorrow, they'd totally try to prank us by defacing the Wondercolts statue."
"Why would anyone take a bus all the way from the city for that?" Sunset asked.
"Because the Crystal Prep Shadowbolts are our biggest rivals?" Applejack said.
"Because that's just what the students at Crystal Prep would do?" Rarity said.
"Because even though they beat us in everything –" Rainbow Dash held out the yearbook and flipped through the pages. "soccer, tennis, golf – they still have to gloat!" Rainbow then pulled up to a page that had a picture of the Wondercolt statue dressed in a clown outfit.
"Seems kinda silly to me." Sunset said.
"Silly!?" Everyone, sans Sunset and Heart Note, exclaimed.
"So I guess you think the Friendship Games are silly, too." Rainbow said.
"Well, it's not like we'll be fighting the powers of evil magic." Sunset argued.
"No." Fluttershy said. "We'll be fighting against a school full of meanies. Not everything has to be magical to be important."
"You're right." Sunset sighed. "I'm sorry. I know it's a big deal."
"That's putting it mildly, darling." Rarity scoffed. "They're still revamping the playing field in preparation."
"I just don't understand why there's this big rivalry." Sunset said.
"Yeah." Heart Note nodded. "I know I haven't been here that long, but aren't the "Friendship Games" supposed to be about our two schools getting along?"
"Well, it's kinda hard to get along with someone who beats you at everything." Applejack answered.
"Not anymore!" Rainbow declared. "This time, things are gonna be different."
"What do you mean?" Sunset asked.
"You'll see." Rainbow said, smiling with pride. Everyone, excluding Rainbow, looked at each other, confused.
Heart Note walked into the gym and looked around for the others. She found Sunset and waved to her, said girl waved back. Heart Note hen went to sit down next to Sunset Shimmer. Principle Celestia walked on the stage with Vice-Principle Luna behind her.
"As I am sure you all know, tomorrow, Canterlot High School will be hosting our fellow students from Crystal Prep Academy as we join together in the spirit of excellence, sportsmanship, and fidelity to compete in the Friendship Games." Principle Celestia said. Everyone clapped unenthusiastically. "Since the games only happen every four years, I'm sure you're all curious what goes on."
"You mean other than us losing?!" Flash Sentry yelled from the crowed.
"And that is exactly why I've asked Rainbow Dash to come up and give you all a little, um... context." Principle Celestia said. She then gave the microphone to Rainbow Dash.
"Thank you, Principal Celestia." Rainbow Dash said before she cleared her throat to talk into the microphone. "I know a lot of you might think there's no way we can beat a fancy school like Crystal Prep at anything."
"Unless it's a "losing to Crystal Prep" competition! 'Cause we're really good at that!" Pinkie Pie yelled from the audience.
"And I know that CHS has never won the Friendship Games even once." Rainbow Dash continued.
"Oh, dear. I hope this speech isn't meant to be motivational." Rarity whispered to the others.
"Crystal Prep students are super athletic, super smart, and super motivated. But there's one thing they aren't. They aren't Wondercolts!" As Rainbow spoke, the band started playing in the background. Then Rainbow started to sing.
[Rainbow Dash]
We've fought magic more than once
And come out on top
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
[Rainbow Dash]
There's other schools, but none can make those claims
[Chorus]
Na, na-na-na-na, oh
[Rainbow Dash]
Together we are Canterlot
Come and cheer our name
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
[Rainbow Dash]
This will be our year to win these games
Rainbow Dash came down from the stage and started to march around the gym.
[Rainbow Dash and chorus]
We'll always be Wondercolts forever
And now our time has finally arrived
'Cause we believe in the magic of friendship And you know, at the end of the day, it is we who survive
At that moment, Vinyl Scratch connected the system to her portable DJ turn table and began to remix the music.
[Students]
Hey!
[Rainbow Dash]
We're not the school we were before
[Students]
Before!
[Rainbow Dash]
Yeah, we're different now
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
[Students]
Hey, hey!
[Rainbow Dash]
We overcame the obstacles we faced
[Chorus]
Overcame the obstacles we faced
[Students]
Hey!
[Rainbow Dash]
We're Canterlot united
[Students]
Unite!
[Rainbow Dash]
And we'll never bow
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
[Students]
Hey, hey!
[Rainbow Dash]
So get ready to see us in first place
[All]
We'll always be Wondercolts forever
(Three! Two! One! Go!)
And now our time has finally arrived
(Our time is now!)
'Cause we believe in the magic of friendship And you know, at the end of the day, it is we who survive
At the end of the day, it is we who survive
Na, na, na-na-na-na Wondercolts united together
Na, na, na-na-na-na Wondercolts united forever
Na, na, na-na-na-na Wondercolts united together
Na, na, na-na-na-na Wondercolts united forever
Na, na, na-na-na-na Wondercolts united together
[Rainbow Dash]
We'll always be Wondercolts forever
And now our time has finally arrived
'Cause we believe in the magic of friendship And you know...
At the end of the day, it is we who survive
At the end of the day, it is we who survive!
Wow, this was an adventure. Thank you to all of you guys who wanted this sequel to happen. Sorry for making you guys wait for this. I hope you all enjoy this chapter. Keep being awesome, guys!
Oh! Also, I'm currently writing another story. It's a Treasure Planet fanfic. BUT, don't worry. I promise it'll be good. Well, as good as a "going into the movie" fic can be. If you've haven't seen Treasure Planet, I highly suggest you watch it. It's a really good(and highly underrated) Disney movie.
Since this worked so well last time: I would like to have you're suggestions for songs that The Rainbooms, Sunset Shimmer, The Dazzlings(Yes, they are going to be appearing a little more frequently in this story), and/or Heart Note could sing. I shall be awaiting all of you're fabulous reviews. So!
Until next time! Keep being Awesome! and,
Avante!
