Adagio felt weightless as if she were flying through the clouds. She was surrounded by a dark void, trapped in silence. She felt like she was floating forever until a chipper voice broke through the silence.
"Dagi! Dagi, wake up! Wake up!" the voice cried.
Adagio opened her eyes with a groan. She found herself still on the kitchen floor and looked up, meeting the amethyst colored eyes of Sonata.
"Sonata, can you please get out of my face?" Adagio groaned.
"Dagi, I'm so glad you woke up!" Sonata said excitedly. "Look what I can do!"
"Maybe later Sonata," Adagio said, rubbing her sore head. "My head is killing me."
"Look Dagi, look!" Sonata persisted.
"Sonata, what could be sooooo..." Adagio trailed off as she looked up at her hyper little sister.
She froze.
"Important...?"
Her eyes went as wide as dinnerplates; maybe wider. Sonata was sitting upside down on the ceiling, smiling down at Adagio who could only stare in horror. Sonata floated down and hovered above Adagio smiling excitedly.
"What did that girl put in our tacos?" Adagio thought to herself.
Sonata flew circles around the kitchen, leaving a light blue streak in her wake, and giggling all the way.
"Look at me go Dagi! Wheeeeeee!~"
A few moments later, Aria awoke. She groaned and slowly sat up, looking toward Adagio, who was still staring into space.
"Hey Dagi, " she said. "What's the matter with you?"
Adagio could only point a shaking finger at the giggling girl flying above. Aria followed Adagio's gaze and her eyes went wider than her sister's, her jaw dropping to the floor. Sonata stopped flying in circles and hovered above her sisters, grinning down at them.
"Isn't it amazing girls?" she asked excitedly. "I can fly!"
Adagio and Aria only stared until Adagio broke the silence.
"Sonata...h-how are you doing that?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
"I dunno, but it's super fun!" Sonata replied.
Sonata flew into the living room as Adagio and Aria followed her. Sonata was zipping all around the house like a little kid hopped up on sugar, but she wasn't paying attention to where she was going, and was heading straight for a wall containing a photo of the three sisters.
"Sonata, watch out!" Adagio cried.
Sonata opened her eyes just in time to see the wall, and she tried to skid to a stop in midair, but to no avail. A few seconds later, face collided with wall. The picture rocked back and forth before it finally came off of the nail, and fell to the ground along with Sonata. Aria reacted quickly, running quickly to catch the photo before it hit the ground. She caught it just before it could fall even two inches.
"Phew, that was close." Aria said with a sigh of relief.
She looked back at Adagio and saw that her hair was all over her head, as if a tornado had blown through it. Aria bit back a laugh.
"Gee, Dagi, what happened to your hair?" she snickered. "Did Sonata leave the window open again?"
"I left it open for St. Giver and the Taco Fairy." Sonata said woozily. "The chimney's too dirty..."
Adagio pulled her hair out of her face and placed it into a simple ponytail, with her purple, spiked barrette.
"You happened, Aria." Adagio replied tersely.
"Me?!" Aria shouted back. "What did I do?!"
"You ran." Adagio said.
"Really Adagio, that's your excuse?" Aria snorted. "So tell me, how does running past you ruin your oh, so, beautiful hair?"
"Here, I'll show you." Adagio said, walking into the kitchen.
She returned with a timer in her hand.
"Run down to the Taco Hut and back; I'll time you." Adagio said with a smirk.
"Are you crazy?!" Aria shouted back. "That'll take forever!"
"Just you wait, you'll prove yourself wrong." Adagio sneered.
Aria groaned and walked out the front door, Adagio following behind. Aria stood impatiently on the sidewalk and waited for Adagio's signal.
"Alright, on your mark," Adagio began.
"It's not a race Adagio. Just let me go already!" Aria shouted.
Adagio said: "Go" and started the timer. Aria took off like a rocket and returned in a matter of seconds.
"So, how'd I do?" Aria asked in an annoyed tone.
"Pretty good," Adagio said. "Eight seconds, not bad."
"See, I told y-" Aria began, then suddenly paused. "Wait-did you say eight seconds?!"
"Convinced?" Adagio asked with a sneer.
"B-but how?!" Aria asked.
"Super speed." Adagio tersely replied. "Apparently the same thing that happened to Sonata happened to you."
"Well what about you Miss I know everything, did you get any special powers?" Aria asked with a snort.
"We'll just have to wait and see, won't we?" Adagio replied, walking into the house.
Adagio and Aria walked into the house to see Sonata seemingly talking to someone through the window. The two approached her out of sheer curiosity and saw that Sonata was "talking" to a squirrel. Or rather, cheeping at it. Adagio and Aria were absolutely at a loss for words. Their little sister was talking to a squirrel as if it were another person.
"You think she finally snapped?" Aria asked quietly.
"Either that, or there was something really wrong with that stuff she put in our tacos." Adagio replied.
Sonata turned and smiled at her sisters.
"Oh, hi girls, I was just talking to my new friend Peanut." Sonata said, letting the squirrel perch onto her shoulder. "It's so cool, I can understand him and he can understand me, watch!"
Sonata turned to Peanut and started cheeping at him as he nodded in response. Aria and Adagio watched with both fear and amazement as Sonata communicated with an actual squirrel.
"What did you say to him?" Adagio asked.
"I said that I'd like him to meet my two big sisters Aria Blaze and Adagio Dazzle." Sonata replied.
Peanut cheeped at the two and held out his tiny paw to them.
"What did he say?" Aria asked.
"He said it's nice to meet you both." Sonata said. "Isn't he cute?"
Aria and Adagio hesitantly shook Peanut's paw, while they both put on fake smiles. Sonata's ears perked up as she turned to Peanut.
"That's your mama calling Peanut," she said sweetly. "It's time for you to go. Talk to you later, 'kay?"
Sonata scratched the little squirrel's head and let it out of the window; waving after him. Aria was the first to speak after a prolonged silence.
"Ok, since when could you speak squirrel?" she asked. "Or was that "taco sauce" hallucinogenic?"
"Oh, I just found out a few minutes ago while you were outside with Dagi. I was just as freaked out as you are!" Sonata replied, and suddenly stood excitedly on her tip toes. "Speaking of which, did you bring back any tacos?!"
"No." Aria said.
"Awwww." Sonata said with a pout, but perked up when she remembered something.
"Ooh, I can do something else too, watch this!"
Sonata focused her eyes on the flower that sat on the coffee table as Aria and Adagio watched. They started snickering when Sonata began to strain her gaze.
"If you're not careful, you're going to give yourself an aneurism." Adagio laughed.
"Hold...on...almost...got it." Sonata said, straining her voice.
The two elder sirens laughed as their sister attempted to perform whatever it was she was trying to do. Suddenly, Sonata's eyes began to glow red. However, Aria and Adagio were too busy laughing to notice.
"Here it comes!" Sonata said, as a warning to her laughing sisters.
Adagio and Aria looked just in time to see two bright red lasers shoot from Sonata's eyes. The two leapt out of the way, hovering in midair and barely escaping the red hot lasers. The flower on the coffee table caught fire and the vase that held it shattered to bits. Adagio and Aria raced over to the coffee table and Aria started blowing on the small flame hoping to extinguish it.
"I could use a little help here!" Aria exclaimed. "Instead of standing there like Sonata, you could at least get some water to put this fire out before the whole house burns down!"
"Hey, I'm standing right here, y'know!" Sonata called.
Adagio growled angrily before taking a deep breath and blowing on the fire with all her might. After a few seconds, Sonata called out:
"Okay Dagi, it's out!"
Adagio stopped and looked down at the table, confirming that the fire was positively out. What she saw, made her double over in hysterical laughter. Aria was literally frozen in the process of blowing out the fire. She could still move her eyes, and she glared at Adagio through her icy prison.
"I must say Aria," Adagio said, as she looked over Aria's statue. "You make quite the lovely centerpiece."
She turned to Sonata with a smirk.
"Sonata, would you care to do the honors?"
Sonata smiled and her eyes lit up.
"Sure thing Dagi, I got it!"
Two red, hot lasers shot from Sonata's eyes and began melting the ice. In a matter of seconds, the ice was melted and Aria was freed from her frozen prison. She lay on the floor, shivering and soaking wet.
"Feel better Ari?" Sonata asked cheerily.
"I would thank you, but you almost burned me Sonata!" Aria shouted through chattering teeth.
"Hey, at least I helped!" Sonata retorted.
"Well surprise, surprise, the idiot actually helps without ruining everything in the process!" Aria shot back.
"Yeah, well you're...DUMB!" Sonata shouted.
"Oh, what a genius comeback where'd you get it, the back of a cereal box?" Aria asked with sarcasm.
"Actually I did, and I'm quite proud of it, thank you very much." Sonata angrily replied.
"That was sarcasm, you idiot!" Aria shouted.
"You are!" Sonata spat.
"Am not!" Aria returned.
"Are too!"
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Am NOT!"
"Are TOO!"
"AM NOT!"
"ARE...TOOOOOOOO!"
Sonata's scream resonated against the walls at a super high pitch; shattering almost every piece of glass in the house.
"ENOUGH!" Adagio shouted stopping her sisters' arguing completely.
They both turned to the eldest siren.
"Don't you see, girls? With these powers, we could take our revenge on the Rainbooms, and take over this pathetic world. And once we've successfully conquered this world...Equestria will be ours.~"
Aria and Sonata looked at each other and shared an evil grin. They turned back to Adagio who stood at the shattered window.
"We can't just go all willy-nilly though," she said, turning back to her sisters. "We need to train and master our new abilities before we can conquer this world or Equestria. We'll start training tomorrow."
Adagio looked at the broken windows and then at Sonata, who grinned sheepishly.
"Just as soon as we can get all of these windows fixed..."
