Lunchtime came around and Sonata was laying her head on the table. She was sniffling and crying against it while Fluffle rubbed her back. And rubbing her cheek on the back of the blue girls head. "I...can't believe...he...did that!"
*Pfft* Fluffle Puff replied in her goofy fashion.
"I thought...he...cared….about...me!" cried Sonata harder.
"Hey…" Aria spoke with hardly any emotion as she walked up. She took notice of her sister sobbing on the table. "Uh, what's going on here?"
Fluffle reached for her phone and quickly typed a message. [Kid dumped her for being my friend.]
"Kid dumped her?" remarked Aria surprised, only to get a louder cry from Sonata that was muffled by the table making Fluffle rub her back and frowned. "Oh, sorry Sonata."
[She's been crying for the last two classes.]
"Well I can say she's not alone." she sat down and sighed. "Sparky practically did the same before I came here."
That made both girls look at the purple girl.
"It's kinda complicated." Aria tilted back her head. "Let's just wait until Adagio gets here. She wanted to meet us for some reason."
"Hey there girls!" Adagio let out with a wide grin as she came up to the table. "I hope you've been having as great a day as I have!"
"Gee, what do you think?" asked Aria with a raised eyebrow while pointing to the crying Sonata. "Sonata and me just got dumped."
"Wait, really?" she questioned and looked back and forth between them. "Wow, I can honestly say that I'm shocked."
"Yeah, but I'm sure your oh so good day will cheer us up." remarked Aria sarcastically.
Adagio smiled. "Oh it will, you see-" she stopped talking when she noticed Fluffle. "Uh, who the heck is this?"
Fluffle typed on her phone and showed the message to Adagio. [I'm Fluffle Puff. Sonata's new friend.]
"And why are you talking like that?"
"She can't talk, so I taught her to use her phone to communicate." Sonata explained wiping her eyes.
"Well can you tell her to give us some privacy? This is a personal matter."
Fluffle Puff blew a raspberry and typed another message. [I'm not deaf.]
"Yes, and this is a private matter." frowned Adagio. "Now shoo, this is between the three of us."
She frowned at Adagio before patting Sonata on the back and typed. [I need to freshen up anyway, I should be back after you're done Sonata.] before walking away from the table.
"So what's the big surprise?" Aria questioned.
Adagio leaned down and looked at them with a grin. "I can use magic again." she said to them.
The girls were surprised before looking at each other then back to Adagio.
"For realsies?" Sonata inquired.
"Yes Sonata, for realsies. And now that my power is restored I can get back on track with my plans. "There's just one little problem. I still can't get a lot of it."
"Can you show us what you can do?" asked Aria.
"Seeing is believing after all, but I can't exactly make a scene here with all these kids around so…" she held up her hand and veiled it in the violet mist of her magic.
Both sirens gasped with wide eyes while stunned.
"Yup, but like I said I can't get a lot, but since the two of you seemed to have magic that's just going to waste I figured you wouldn't mind sharing."
"Wait, so you want the two of us to give you the magic we have?" Aria raised an eyebrow.
"Well you've made it perfectly clear you don't want it so why not just give it to me?" Adagio said leaning in. "After all you two want to be normal little girls living with 'Daddy dearest'."
"She has a point there." whispered Sonata. "I mean we don't even need it anymore. And she's clearly not going to be happy until she's at full power again.
"Yeah, but that doesn't mean we have to give it away either. Think about what she'll do with it."
"Who cares, right now I'm too upset to worry about it." She said before holding a hand out to Adagio. "Take mine, just don't kill anyone and leave me to grieve."
"See? That's using your head." Adagio spoke taking Sonata's hand and began draining her magic. "Not bad Sonata you have quite a bit stored up."
"Well if that's all you wanted to talk about then you can leave me alone, I just wanna cry." she said before Adagio drained the last. "Whoa, And now I suddenly feel tired."
"Having all your magic drained from your body will do that, dummy." Aria scolded. "Jeez, you're such a pig Adagio. You could of at least left her a little bit so she could stay on her feet."
"Hey, I'm taking what I can get. Besides you heard her, I'm making things easier on her."
"Still have a little consideration." Aria spoke before looking at Sonata and held out her hand. "Here Sonata, take a little of my magic as a pick me up."
Both looked at her like she had gone crazy.
"Why? Do I have to do your chores later?"
"Just shut up and take my hand, before you collapse."
Sonata sighed before grabbing Aria and felt some of the magic go into her which perked her up. "Ooh. Thanks, Aria."
"Don't worry about it, you're my sister. It's my job to help when you do something stupid." She said before looking up Adagio. "And you, I'll give you MOST of what I have, so long as you learn a little something called self-restraint."
"Alright fine, deal." she said before taking Aria's hand.
Aria felt Adagio start to quickly drain it. "Ugh you are such a glutton." She had to put up a bit of a fight to keep it all from leaving her too fast. "Seriously, you're like Sonata when she got into chocolate."
"What can I say, when it comes to magic I have a bit of a sweet tooth. But I'm impressed at how much you have." She said tightening her grip on Aria's hand making her groan. "You sneaky little minx, you had as much magic as Sonata and kept it hidden."
"Alright alright, that's plenty."
"Come on like you really need all of it." Adagio said trying to draw in even more.
"Ngh." Aria groaned before glaring at Adagio. "I said that's enough!" She growled then started to squeeze with her recently rediscovered strength making a few popping sounds.
"Gah!" Adagio let out in pain before letting go, pulled back, and held her hand with a wince before waving her sore hand. "You almost broke my hand!"
"Yeah well you almost drained me dry, so keep that in mind next time you get greedy."
"Jeez when did you get so strong?" Adagio said waving her hand.
"Don't you remember? She's always been strong." Sonata replied.
"Huh?" Adagio looked to sonata I disbelief.
"Yeah, so even without magic, I could take you if you try something."
"You're lying. I think I'd remember if she was that strong." Adagio stated.
"Actually that's something I wanted to talk to you two about. I can't believe I never noticed before, but I have a lot of gaps in my memory. Like how I completely forget I use to be a brawler back in Equestria." remarked Aria rubbing her fist. "I mean, I'm real strong and it's like I've forgotten a big part of my life. I want you guys to think back, remember the past thousand years we've been in this world. Can you notice any gaps to, any at all?"
Both the girls blinked before trying to think.
"Come to think of it...most of the voyage back on the Mayflower is a bit of a blur." Adagio stated. "I know for a fact it took awhile, but it feels like we were sailing away from England one day and then reached America the next."
"Yeah, and it felt like we were in Greece for a year, but then how did we wind up in Italy?" asked Sonata before trying to think. She put a great deal of effort in trying to recall the events in between. "Gah, I can't remember!"
"Yeah, neither can I. And didn't we meet a kook wearing a pot on his head with a thing for apples while we were traveling with those settlers?" Aria questioned.
"Yeah, he said something about...stuff falling down?" stated Sonata "What was his name, Donny something?"
"No I think it was Ronny, Ronny...Chapelseek?" Aria guessed with her hands on her head trying to remember. "Ugh no that's not it. But I know he was a man of god. What was it?"
"Ow! Dude quit spitting apple seeds at me!" shouted a nearby boy.
"Appleseed!" The three girls said in unison to each other as it finally clicked.
"Now I remember, Johnny Appleseed!" Aria said. "He was always walking around barefoot reading that Bible."
"How could we forget someone with a dorky nickname like that?" Adagio wondered. "And those goofy songs about the Lord and apples."
"And his animals, all his cute little animals! How could we forget his animals!" Sonata said throwing her arms up in the air.
"Yes Sonata, and his animals." Adagio rolled her eyes. "But this doesn't make sense, how could we forget stuff like that?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Aria questioned. "All our more recent memories are blocking out old ones.
"Meaning what?" asked Sonata. "We're just gonna start forgetting more?"
"Well not everything. Clearly more meaningful or scarring memories are the ones left unforgotten." remarked Aria before looking at Adagio. "Still think immortality is worth it?"
Adagio scoffed. "A few forgotten memories doesn't mean I'm going to turn away at the first chance I get. If they're forgotten it just means they weren't worth remembering." she stated before seeing Fluffle return. "We'll talk more later."
"Whatever." Aria rolled her eyes while Fluffle sat next to Sonata.
[So, what did I miss?] Fluffle typed on her phone.
"You don't wanna know." Aria replied. "Family matters you know."
[Oh! That makes sense, it happens with me and my sister lots of times.] She typed before looking past Adagio and frowned. [Heads up, trouble is coming.]
They followed her gaze and saw Rosa approaching them. Adagio was interested with Aria and Sonata curious.
"Hey bush head." She said pointing at Adagio. "Come with me."
"Oh really now?" Adagio asked before Fluffle sprung up between the two startling them. "Wha...How in the-"
[Don't do it Adagio! She's bad to the bone!] Fluffle quickly typed.
gathering her senses from the initial shock Adagio frowned. "Relax, I can handle this." she said walking up to Rosa. "Ladies, allow me to introduce MY new friend, Rosa."
"What!?" The three gawked with Rosa's jaw dropping.
"We met during our free period and got to know each other better." She said before nudging Rosa's arm. "She might not seem like it but she's actually really nice, she just puts on a bad girl act."
"Adagio!" Rosa whined. "You ruined it! I don't want anyone finding out yet."
"Relax it's just my sisters, and miss fuzzball over there."
"Her name is Fluffle Puff." Sonata huffed.
"Whatever, so you don't have to worry about them talking. They don't have much cred here and the other isn't very chatty. Now what's up?"
"Well...You remember my friend, Discord? He wants to speak with you, in person." Rosa said before Fluffle gasped deeply with a look of shock which Aria and Sonata noticed.
"I guess I can spare him a few minutes of my time. Lead the way Red." Adagio spoke.
She sighed before turning and walked while Sonata turned to Fluffle who typed away quickly. [Did she say Discord!? TELL ME SHE DIDN'T SAY DISCORD!]
"Ok, we won't." remarked Aria. "But on the chance she did, why? Who's Discord?"
[He's the school prankster, the spirit of Chaos personified. He gets his jollies by tormenting others with elaborate and over the top pranks. Plus he's a computer hacker, some say one of the best in the world.]
"Spirit of chaos? Why does that sound familiar?" muttered Sonata.
"Ugh. Another thing we can't remember." Aria muttered and rubbed her aching head.
[You really shouldn't have let your sister go off, when she meets him…]
"Adagios a big girl she can take care of herself." Sonata replied.
The orange haired girl followed Rosa outside and looked around. "Alright, so where is he?" she asked before Rosa point to someone sitting in a bench with their back turned. Adagio raised an eyebrow before walking towards them. "Discord I presume?" she asked before the figure stood up and turned. One look a him and she flinched in surprise.
His hair was a wild unkempt mess of white with white bushy eyebrows. His skin was grey, yellow eyes with red pupils, and in his mouth was a fang like tooth sprouting from the upper jaw.
"...Wow." Adagio managed to say feeling a little creeped out.
"AH! You must the Adagio I've heard so much about." he said leaning in with a smile and extended a hand to her.
She gulped when she saw how his nails were filed into claws. She reached out slowly and gripped his hand. "Nice to...meet you." she said before he yanked her closer and looked her in the eyes.
"I'm quite impressed you didn't run at the first sight of me. Most folks would be long gone by now." he chuckled with Adagio getting weirded out by how close his eyes were to her own.
"Uh... thanks, can you let me go now?"
"But of course." he smiled letting go while rubbing his chin. "So tell me, is it true you're all buddy buddy with Rosa?"
"As much as we can be seeing as how we just met." Adagio replied wiping her hand on her top.
"I see." He spoke before taking out a dollar before looking to the read head. "Hey Rosa, why don't you go by yourself a soda, my treat."
"Sure thing Discord." she replied taking it and gave Adagio a pity look before walking away.
"So, Rosa tells me you're not exactly from here."
Adagio frowned while narrowing her eyes and crossed her arms. "No, I was exiled from my world by-"
"The Pillars of Chaos, yes. Rosa explained everything to me. Gotta say, it was a good lie." He said with a knowing look.
"Lie? What are you going on about?"
"My dear Adagio, do you really think I'm as gullible as Rosa? I have a talent for knowing when people are lying to me. Especially when Rosa told me she blacked out when you started to sing." he smirked with a chuckle. "And trust me, you're really bad at trying to come off as genuine." he said before noticing her step back with a worried look. "Calm down I'm not going to rat you out, it's freaks like you that make me seem normal."
"Hey! Sirens aren't freaks!" she said before quickly covering her mouth. 'Crap!'
"Oooh! Sirens you say?" he grinned. "That explains the singing part, honestly I was wondering if you were secretly some kind of vampire." He let out a chuckle and sat back down. "And for the record I was kidding, do I look like I care about appearing normal?" He asked gesturing to his outfit. He wore a brown open vest over a yellow shirt, red pants with wide cuffs. A boot made of leather on his left foot and a boot made of reptile skin on the right foot
"...it says plenty without me piping up." she said before he gestured for her to sit. She moved over and sat down a little bit away from him.
"So what is it like? Real magic I mean."
"Let's just say for me and my band mates, it's how we survive. But if you mean how does it feel… that's a little more complicated."
"Oh come now, I want to hear as close as an example as you can think of."
"It's like...energy that flows through you and moves how you want it to. she remarked awkwardly. If you have enough of it then you're almost invincible."
"So if you have magic, does that mean you can perform spells? Is that related to your voice?"
"If I was back in my world it would be easier to explain, but this world of yours has different laws That even I'm still trying to figure out."
"Wait, if you're a siren, does that mean you're one of THE sirens? From mythology?"
"Possibly. We needed the magic and because you humans don't seem to have the slightest understanding of it, we helped ourselves." she replied crossing her arms. "It's how we've managed to live for centuries. "Well that and the magic pendants me and my band mates wore from our own world."
"Oooh, so it's not part of your biology?"
"Magic and biology are two very separate things. It goes beyond anything physical." She said enveloping her hands in magic for him to see.
"Ooooh!" discord let out astounded by the sight.
"But I can only take so much magic from a person at a time when I sing. More people, more magic."
"How much magic do you have at the moment?"
"Enough to wipe your feeble little mind of this entire conversation." She spoke holding up her hand and grinned at him.
"My my, someone's shy." he teased without flinching. "What if I told you I know how you can get alot of magic?"
"I'd say that's pretty desperate for someone who hasn't freaked out."
"I don't really care what people do, I just let like to get jiggy with the chaos." he chuckled. "Besides, if you wipe my mind, that must mean you have a sure fire way to get plenty of magic, right?"
"...alright spooky, what's your big plan?"
"The last two periods of school are going to be cancelled so the Principal can hold talent show auditions."
"Uh huh?"
"And there will be a lot of people in the auditorium. Those who don't attend are free to do as the please so long as they don't leave the grounds."
"So like another free period only longer." remarked Adagio with a raised eyebrow. "Go on."
"I can access the school PA system and send your singing throughout the entire school! Imagine all the magic you could gain from that?" he grinned with Adagio letting that sink in and blinked.
"Huh, that...actually sounds like it could work."
"All you need to do is alert me when you get on stage." he grinned. "If it goes off without a hitch, you might be swimming in magic."
"You know Discord, I think you and I are going to get along just fine." grinned Adagio darkly the stood up. "I'll have Rosa call you when we're ready."
"And I'll bring the popcorn." he said with an excited chortle.
Back with the sirens and Fluffle, Aria was patting Sonata who, after being reminded of her break up, was wiping her eyes with some napkins Fluffle got.
"Sonata you need to calm down, you're going to end up dehydrated." Aria said to her sister.
"B-B-But I cahahahan't!" Sonata sobbed. "It feels like my heart is in itty bitty pieces!"
"You'll get over it, someday." remarked Aria with her sister sniffling. "Besides, you don't see me crying over what Sparky did."
"What do you mean?"
"He….let's just say he called what we had off, ok?"
"Then why are you still wearing his ring?" Sonata questioned.
Aria looked down at her ring and frowned. "I guess I forgot about it." she said before she started playing with it.
"If he was being a big jerk like Kid, you might as well chuck it." she said angrily. "Just go to the trash can over there and drop it in."
"Hmm...maybe." she said standing up and walked away from the table. She reached the can and grabbed the ring before slowly pulling it off. She moved her hand and held the ring over the can. 'Should I….?'
Even though it hurt to think about the boy she did want it to be over between them, and if she did throw the ring away then in her mind it really would be over.
'He was a great guy, but not even a couple days here and he dumped me over something so dumb. Okay maybe it was a bit of a mind blower, but still….'
After another few moments of thinking she sighed and put the ring in her pocket.
"Hey, why didn't you throw it out?" asked Sonata as Aria walked back.
"If I did toss it he'd probably make me pay him back, with money." she replied with a shrug. "I'll keep it for now, maybe make him pay for it if he really wants it back."
"Girls!" Adagio said walking up to the table. "Do I have news for you."
"You're gonna finally kiss GD?" asked Aria sarcastically.
"Don't start." Adagio glared. "No, it turns out that they're going to make the next few hours into a big free period to hold talent show auditions."
[Oh yeah, I forgot all about that. They made the announcement yesterday.] Typed Fluffle Puff.
"So what?" asked Sonata.
"So, let's try out." Adagio said.
"You want us to go and perform, in front of the kids here, like before." Aria spoke slowly and shook her head. "I know we forgot some stuff, but don't tell me you forgot... THAT." Aria said not wanting Fluffle to learn too much.
"You don't understand, this is gonna be way different. We can sing again, all of us." She whispered to Aria putting her hand on her shoulders. "This is our chance."
"Uh yeah, count me out." she replied pushing the hands off. "And don't you mean YOUR chance?"
"I can't do this on my own, I need you two."
"You just want us for….your own personal gain." Aria replied. "We haven't forgotten what you tried to do."
"Yeah." frowned Sonata with a glare. "Besides, we just got dumped. You can do this by yourself."
Adagio groaned before an idea came to mind. "You're right, you're in pain. I get that. But...what if we performed a song that helped you express that pain?"
"What are you going on about?".
"You were all lured in by these guys and they just ripped your hearts out and stomped them into the dirt. How does that make you feel?" Adagio said walking behind Aria
"Angry of course."
"And empty inside."
"Then use those emotions, let them out through your singing. We don't have to win, it's just an audition. All we have to do is sing." she smirked. "Imagine how it would feel to them to hear you two letting them know what they did. It would ruin the boys image with other girls. They'll never get another date again." Adagio spoke praying on the girls anger and pain.
"Well...Kid WAS a big jerk!" spoke Sonata with a frown. "He said he couldn't be seen with me just because I became Fluffle's friend who is WAY cute!"
"Boys can be so cruel Sonata." Adagio said softly putting a hand under Sonata's chin. "They deserve the exact same pain you feel until they're on their hands and knees begging you for forgiveness."
"And Sparky could have been more understanding, especially after I helped his sorry butt." grumbled Aria.
"So ungrateful." Adagio spoke walking over to Aria and rubbed the purple girl's shoulders. "Men just take you for all your worth and toss you to the curb when they're done with you. Are you just going to take that lying down?"
"After what I showed off? Heck no." she growled and slammed her fists on the table.
"So girls, are you in?"asked Adagio.
"I am." spoke Sonata raising her hand.
"Atta girl, and you Aria?"
"...ditto."
"Good, very good." Adagio said with her trademark sinister smile that made Fluffle shudder.
[Uh, are you two sure about this?] The Pink haired girl typed. [An eye for an eye makes the world go blind.]
"That's silly Fluffle, the world doesn't have eyes."
"Exactly." Adagio said before giving Fluffle a 'butt out' look. This made the girl gulp and scoot a little bit away.
[Well if you're really want to do this then I suggest you keep it clean, otherwise you'll be tossed in detention.]
"Oh yeah! Fluffle has her own sister who's super nice and actually is in charge of detention." Sonata informed. "And honestly, she's pretty scary when she's wants to be. I'd rather not get on her bad side, ever."
"I doubt a sister to someone like her would be that scary." Adagio rolled her eyes before Fluffle showed them a rather spooky picture of Marksaline. She closed her mouth with Aria looking between it and Fluffle who smiled. "Uh...on second thought, I can see the resemblance."
"Okay moving on from that little episode of creepiness," Aria spoke. "So what are we going to sing?"
"We'll come up with something." Adagio said. "But what we need are some instruments."
"You mean like the ones at the shop?"
"Something like that, we'll definitely need the ones we're familiar with."
"But how? It's not like we can just leave school and go get them."
[You can borrow some instruments from storage downstairs. If you don't break them.] suggested Fluffle Puff.
"So there is a brain in there." Remarked Adagio. "Thanks for the tip Fluffy."
"Ahem, it's Fluffle." Sonata spoke up.
"Whatever." Adagio said before the bell rang. "Alright girls let's get to work." She clapped her hands.
All of them got up before heading off.
A large number of students headed for the auditorium with vice principal Ennui looking none too pleased. "I am telling you Joyfield this is a bad idea." He said to the principal.
"And I'm telling you it's a great idea. A talent show is just what the school needs to lift everyone's spirits." she said tickling his chin. "You need to lighten up."
"And you need to stop that." he growled while pushing her finger away. "Interrupting classes for something this pointless is a waste of time."
"Yet the school board approved. In order to improve the image of the schools image you so viciously tarnished back when you were principal. Or did you forget that my love?"
"Do not call me that, we are not married anymore." he growled turning away with his arms crossed.
"I know, it's just funny to see your reaction." she giggled while he grumbled to himself.
"Come on at least you're a judge."
"Against my wishes. I have to make sure you don't approve of anything that violates school code."
"I would never ever allow something like that." Principal Joyfield replied. "I don't need you to clean up my messes anymore Drake."
"You say that now Emma, but just wait." he said as he said at the judges table. "You're going to slip up and just like always I'll have to pick up the pieces."
"Just you watch, everything will go along swimmingly." the principal said walking to the doors of the auditorium and opened them. "Alright children, one at time!" she said to the crowd of students.
The students muttered to each other with excitement while forming a line.
Sometime later the Dazzlings were working on their song. All of them having trouble though.
"What about this?" Sonata said holding up a piece of paper to the others who grimaced at reading the lines.
"Uh Sonata this still might be a little dark." Aria said. "I get your angry, but l this...it's just creepy."
"Like yours are any better?" Sonata said holding up a page from Aria's side. "At least my suggestions aren't gory."
"They're not gory, they're just...informative on what's inside guys bodies." Aria said taking her page back.
"Come on girls let's just focus." Adagio said rubbing the bridge of her nose. "We need to come up with something or we won't make it on time."
*Pffft*
They turned and saw Fluffle walk up with a dolly of instruments being pushed by her sister Marksaline.
[Will these do?] typed up Marksaline.
The girls approached the dolly and inspected them while avoiding eye contact with the older girl.
"A little dusty. But yeah, these should do." Adagio spoke before the red haired girl walked up and picked up a page before recoiling at the words and held it up before clearing her throat with an accusing look. "Oh Aria and Sonata broke up with their boyfriends so they're a little emotional right now."
"Yeah, we're gonna sing out our pain and anger!...when we get the right song down." spoke Sonata who was testing her keyboard.
Marksaline rubbed her chin before reaching for a pencil and jotted down a few lines before presenting it to Adagio.
"Huh?" She blinked before taking the page and read what she wrote. "Hm, yeah that might work for a start." She said before showing Aria and Sonata.
"That's perfect!" Sonata said with a grin. "Thanks Marksaline."
[No problem.] she typed with a smile. [Just promise me you'll make the rest of the song PG, PG-13 at best.]
"No problem."
"I think I have an idea from this part." Aria said pointing a drumstick at the page before writing down another line.
"Hmm, yeah, that'll work." Adagio nodded. "Ooh and what about…." She jotted down her own lines with her bandmates nodding in approval. "Perfect!"
The song got better and better from that point. The girls weren't even slowed by practicing with the instruments. Finally, it was all done.
"Alright that should do it." Adagio spoke. "Marksaline think you can get out instruments to the auditorium?"
[No problem.] She said gathering up the instruments while her sister was looking over the lyrics with a saddened look.
The girls had poured all their pain into this song. It was enough to bring a tear to her eye.
"So, we got lyrics, instruments, anything else?" asked Aria.
"Well unless we can get our hands on some costumes we just need to get into character." Adagio said. "Which shouldn't be hard for you two."
[Maybe you should try talking to the boys.] Fluffle suggests.
"Forget that jerk!" snapped Sonata. "He needs to pay for toying with my emotions."
"Same." spoke Aria.
"Come on girls let's get going." Adagio said to her bandmates. "We'll show them real talent."
Fluffle wanted to stop them, but the look on Sonata's face told her she wouldn't listen. She then decided to do the only thing she could think of before running off.
Later on at the auditorium Principal Joyfield had dismissed the previous act and crossed their name off the list. "Well that was unsightly."
"It was absolute rubbish." vice principal Ennui remarked. "And that outfit she was wearing, don't get me started."
"Maybe the next act will be sure to be appropriate." She said before Sprite and her crew walked up. "Hello ladies."
"Inform us what you will be doing." drawled Ennui rolling his eyes.
"Dance number." Vanilla Float replied simply.
"Oh, how originally." he remarked sarcastically.
Tutti Frutti put down a radio and pressed play before the girls started to dance.
"Oh great, them." Aria sneered looking at the girls. "Should have known they'd try and be the stars at this."
"New friends of yours?" Adagio questioned.
"Nope, enemies. They were sweet on Sparky's old friend turned enemy. Nearly got me pelted by dodgeballs at first hour Gym class."
"They don't seem that bad." remarked Sonata.
"Don't let their looks fool you." Aria said while Adagio noticed Rosa and walked over.
"I got your text, what's up?" Rosa asked.
"I need you to call our mutual friend and tell him to be ready. The moment we're on stage tell him to begin. He'll know what it means." Adagio instructed.
"Uh, sure." Rosa replied before she walked of to check on Marksalines progress. 'Oh no, something tells me I should duck and cover just to be safe.'
Meanwhile Fluffle was running through the halls looking from one classroom to the next. She was getting exhausted and started to slow down. She opened one more door and found a room full of boys sitting around a table playing a board game, one of which was the boy she was looking for, Wizkid. *Pffft!* She let out getting the boys attention before most shouted in surprise and moved away.
"FLUFFLE PUFF!"
"Oh no." Kid groaned and stood up before walking up to her. "What do you want? You already took my Girlfriend, wasn't that enough?!"
She frowned at him before grabbing his wrist and tried pull him.
"Hey! What are you-let go!" He said and pulled his hand away. "What is wrong with you?" He questioned before he saw her type something on her phone and practically shove it in his face.
[You need to come with me, now!]
"What? What for?"
[Just do it!]
"Are you serious? You ruined my life when you stole my girlfriend! There is no way in Heaven or Hades that I will go with you."
Fluffle simply stared at him with a blank expression before suddenly wrapping her arms around his body and quickly carried the shocked boy out of the room.
"Oh no! The school weirdo just kidnapped Kid!" one of the boys shouted.
"Should we go after her?"
The boys looked at each other before they all proceeded to continue there game, but removed Kid's piece. "We'll go see him, after the dungeon's finished."
Back in the auditorium Sprite and her crew finished their dance with a pose. They panted while the principal clapped with the vice principal not looking impressed.
"Very good girls! No suggestive moves, appropriate attire, and you stayed perfectly in sync."
"It was repetitive and dull to me." Vice principal Ennui stated earning a glare from the principal.
"We try our best." Sprite said with a smirk.
"Well I think it was-"
"Not good enough." remarked Ennui.
"Ennui!" Joyfield scolded. "Don't mind him girls you did great an I look forward to seeing you at the talent show."
"Yes! We nailed it!" spoke Tutti as the girls made their way off stage.
"Okay next up!" The principal spoke.
Marksaline opened the curtain to show Adagio, Aria, and Sonata. With their instruments ready.
"Oh! Girls I didn't expect to see you here." Joyfield smiled at them.
"Even more music." muttered Ennui with a sigh seeing the instruments.
"Do you girls have a band name?" Joyfield asked.
"As a matter of fact we do." A smiled Adagio. "We are-"
"The Myestro Sisters." Aria cut in with a grin to the shocked Adagio who looked back at her.
"Ooh! I like it." The principal clapped her hands.
"What are you doing?" hissed Adagio in a whisper covering her mic.
"We're not calling ourselves the Dazzlings. That was in the past, this is now, just go with it." Aria hissed back
As the two argued, Fluffle carried Kid in from one of the back entrances at the opposite end of the auditorium and put him down.
"You can't just drag me away from a-"
[Shut up and listen to what's about to happen.] Was typed on her phone before she pointed to the stage where his gaze immediately locked on Sonata.
"Wait, Sonata?"
"Ugh okay fine, we'll do it your way." Adagio said fed up with the argument and went to get the show on the rode. She glanced at Rosa who nodded in response.
"Discord, now." The red head whispered in her phone.
"On it." he replied and pressed a button just before the girls started playing sending the music throughout the entire school.
This made any students and teachers turn to the intercoms while the lights dimmed.
Your unfeeling heart imprisons me
Careless eyes, too blind to see
Empty words, an iron cage
Broken heart, bleeding rage
Can't wait for you and me
It's time I break free
(Trap of love
Snared by desire
Trap of love
Burned by your fire
Trap of love
Snared by desire
Trap of love)
Beware the trap of love
All who heard the music could actually feel their hearts twisting in pain from the Girls song. Even the vice principal had a hand to his chest. Magic wafted off them and flooded the halls making its way to the auditorium where it blanketed the floor and made its way on stage. Much to Adagio's delight.
'Yes! Yes! It's working!' she thought while keeping up her hurt expression and absorbed the magic. 'but what aren't they going into a trance let me before? Oh well as long as it's working.'
Let me be, it's time we part
Set me free, uncage my heart
Can't wait for you and me
It's time for you to see
(Trap of love
Snared by desire
Trap of love
Burned by your fire
Trap of love
Snared by desire
Trap of love)
Beware the trap of love...
When the song came to an end Kid could actually feel tears in his eyes along with Fluffle who was tearing up and blew her nose I to a tissue. Many other students and teachers were in the state. "I've made a terrible mistake."
Principal Joyfield wiped her eyes of the tears that had formed during the song. "That was so emotional."
"It was….actually something." remarked Ennui.
"We had some good motivation." Sonata said wiping her eye.
"Yeah, we were really into it." remarked Aria looking away to hide her own tears.
"I hope we can see more of that musical talent at the talent show." Stated principal Joyfield.
"Consider it done." smirked Adagio before leaving the stage with Aria and Sonata tailing her.
"What are you doing?" Aria questioned grabbing her shoulder. "This was supposed to be a one time thing."
"Change of plans, consider it a last minute one, sound familiar?" she smirked pushing her hand off. "I need more research of this world's magic if I'm going to get back to full power."
"You sneaky little-" Aria stops after seeing Kid. "We'll talk later."
"Sonata!" he spoke running over with said girl turning and frowning.
"Oh, it's you, what do YOU want?"
"Uh...well, I wanted to talk to you." he said with Fluffle looking at them from a little ways back.
"Oh, you wanna talk to me? You sure you don't wanna leave me alone? After all, I AM friends with the school's so called 'weirdo'." she air quoted before crossing her arms.
"Look, I was surprised and not thinking clearly. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just…."
"Save it!" she snapped with a frown. "You care more about your stupid reputation here than you do me. I guess the time we spent isn't worth anything because you'd probably consider it all a waste of time."
"No! No Sonata I swear I don't!"
"Well if you're so quick to leave me because I made a nice and good friend, then I guess you do." she huffed before walking away from him. "Goodbye Kid."
"Sonata wait!" He said following her.
Aria was about to walk over and slug him when Adagio stopped her.
"Lets see how this plays out. I actually like watching him squirm."
"Tch, you would." scoffed Aria before Fluffle ran over and cut Kid off with a glare while shaking her head.
*Pffft* Fluffle let out and walked up to her friend to stop her.
"Sonata please, I wasn't thinking of it like that and I know now that I should have. I thought she stole you from me and…I got upset. My mouth was running off before I realized I said that. And about my reputation….I'm pretty sure it shot after Fluffle practically kidnapped me."
She blinked and turned to her friend. "Wait, you did what?"
[I did it to make sure he could see this for himself. I wanted him to see just how much pain you were in.] she typed.
"Sonata please, let me make things right for being so stupid." pleaded Kid with Sonata looking at him with an unreading gaze before looking away.
"No, you hurt me Kid, a lot." she spoke and turned her back to him "Right now I don't want to be in the same room as you."
Those words made Kid's heart practically break. He raised his hand out before Sonata and Fluffle walked away and let it drop. "Sonata."
"Ah, this is like sweet sweet chocolate, I wish I had a camera." sighed Adagio with a smirk walking by the boy making Aria roll her eyes.
When said girl was beside him she punched his shoulder.
"Ow!"
"That's for breaking my sister's heart." she said. "I see you near her again and I'll break your legs."
"But I-"
"HARD." she warned making a fist before walking away with Kid dropping his head.
When she left Kid looked up at Sonata "What have I done?"
