Chapter 5: Fall Formal.
A/N: Alright Chapter 5 woohoo! So there will be a musical number mid way and I will have bold for the group and normal italics for the solo singer so just a heads up. No don't worry you can skip that part since it's just part of the dance.
(POV Rainbow Dash)
It has been a month and a week or so since school started. Rage, Sonic and Shadow the three new kids who helped my friends and I have turned High School around for us. Besides the abduction Sunset did on the second day of school this year has been great. Sonic and I are going out, Rebecca is with Shadow and I think Applejack might be thinking about asking Rage out…but I think he has his eye on Twilight. As for Sunset Shimmer she has done one hell of a job faking this new leaf gig. She has everyone else fooled but I know she is planning something…fooling everyone. This week is the Fall Formal and I am going to ask Sonic. Shadow and Rebecca are already hooked up. Applejack is gearing up to ask Rage but I think Twilight might beat her to it. Rage, Sonic and Shadow are actually playing at the Fall Formal, the three apparently were a band who'd have thought! Well here comes Sonic time to rock and roll!
"Hay Rainbow Dash what's up?" Sonic asks the prismatic female
"Hay Sonic would you like to go to the Fall Formal with me?" I ask
"Sure!" he chuckles "I was wondering when you were going to ask!"
"R-really?" I exclaim oh my gosh he said yes!
"Heck yeah!" Sonic replies "Otherwise I was going to ask you." He gives me a kiss as Rebecca walks up.
"Hay guys." She says and we wave "Have you seen Twilight or Rage?"
"Why?" I ask
"I need help on my Chemistry homework." She sighs "I can't remember the Nobel Gasses."
"Helium, Neon, Argron, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon." Rage says walking up to us "And Element 118 Ununoctium if you want to get technical." And there you go another reason Rage is a smartass even going and naming one of those weird elements no one else has ever heard of and isn't listed in out textbooks. Then again our textbooks are old
"Really?" Rebecca asks
"Yeah all of Group 18 or Villa are the Nobel Gasses." Rage replies
"Thank you!" she smiles writing them down
"No problem." Rage smiles as Twilight walks up
"Hay guys!" she smiles "Oh Rage!" she looks at him flipping her hair out of her eyes. I knew it, here it comes! "Will you go to the Fall Formal with me?" she asks. We all stood there silently as we awaited Rage's answer to Twilight's question. I already knew it though.
"Twilight…." He begins softly, oh no I was afraid he might say no! "It would be an honor to go with you." He says with a bow. Pfft classic Rage, once you get to know him you'll learn he has a tendency to play the suspense game with people. Sunset then approached the group, oh great looks like she has Flash Sentry with her.
"Guess who's taking Flash to the Fall Formal." She smiles
"Congrats Sunset." Sonic smiles with a thumbs up
"I am lucky my parents are out of town." Rebecca says "Otherwise they would probably make me late trying to make everything perfect." Suddenly Rage grunted in pain and we looked to see him holding his head a fearful look on his face. Oh no, he was having flashbacks again.
"Is he okay?" Flash asks
"He's just having flashbacks he will be fine." Sonic says as Rage stands up panting
"S-sorry… Don't worry it's normal for me." He sighs as Shadow walks up
"There you are becca where have you been?" he asks
"Becca?" sonic asks teasingly and Shadow blushes
"I was getting help with my Chemistry homework from Rage." She says "The Nobel Gasses."
"Hmph." He smirks. We talked for a bit before we walked over to the barn so Rage, Sonic and Shadow could get ready for tonight. Their band was called Chaos Control Freaks a rather cool name if you ask me (A/N: Coos to anyone who gets the reference)
That night at the Fall Formal we put our votes in for Princess. The candidates were: Sunset, Lyra, Rose Luck, and Twilight. But everyone knew it was going to be between Sunset and Twi. It was finally time for Rage, Sonic and Shadow to take the stage. The MC for the night was Shining Armor, Twilight's older brother.
"Please welcome to the stage a student band consisting of Sonic, Shadow and Rage The Chaos Control Freaks." He announces, Rage was the lead guitar and vocals and I can't blame him, he shred the guitar and sings like a beast! Sonic was the best drum player I have ever seen and Shadow played a pretty mean bass.
"Thanks for coming out tonight." Rage says "I just got one question are you ready to rock?!" we all cheered as he steps back
[Music: Open Your Heart-Crush 40]
Rage begins with the same riff he showed me back when we first met, that guitar was so epic! But we were swept away when they began the singing…
Thunder, Rain and Lighting
Danger Water Rising
Clamor Sirens wailing
It's such a bad sign
Shadows of dark creatures
Steel Clouds floating in the air,
People run for shelter
Whats gonna happen to us?
All the steps we take all the moves we make
All the pain at steak
I see the chaos for everyone
Who are we? What can do?
You and I are the same in a way that
We have our own styles and we won't change
Yours is filled with evil
And mine is not!
There is no way I can lose!
Can't hold on much longer
But I will never let go!
I know it's a one way track
Tell me now how long this'll last!
I'm not gonna think this way
No will I count on others
Close my eyes and feel it burn
Now I see what I gotta do!
Open your heart
It's gonna be alright!
Ancient Cities blazing
Shadows keep attacking
Little children crying
Confusion hopeless anger!
I don't know what it can be
But you drive me crazy
All your cunning tricks make me sick!
You won't have it
Your own wayyyyy….
Can't hold on much longer
But I will never let go!
I know it's a one way track
Tell me now how long this'll last!
I'm not gonna think this way
Nor will I count on others
Close my eyes and feel it burn
Now I see what I gotta do!
Open your heart
And you will seeee!
Rage then takes a killer guitar solo as we all cheer for the band. They were killing it out there. While they were rocking a kid comes up to me. "Excuse me?!" he calls and I look to see him he had a red and a blue eye. Interesting… they matched his hair! He wore a black and white striped jacket that was cut in half with the colors a cyan in the middle. His shoes were probably the most bizarre thing I have ever seen! They were orange, dark green and sky blue. His pants were gray and his bracelets were black and white striped. "What's up ?" I ask him
"My name is Ace! You know Rage right?" he asks
"Yeah why?" I reply "You know him?"
"Yeah we were friends for a while." He replies "where is he?" all I did was point up on stage as they began to sing again
If it won't stop
There will be no future for us
His heart's tied down by
All the hate gotta set him free!
I know it's a one way track
Tell me now how long this'll last!
Close my eyes and feel it burn
No I see what I gotta do!
Gotta open your heart, dude!
Can't hold on much longer
But I will never let go!
I know it's a one way track
Tell me now how long this'll last!
I'm not gonna think this way
Nor will I count on others
Close my eyes and feel it burn
Now I see what I gotta do!
Open your heart, it's gonna be alright
Yeah!
Open your Heart!
Yeah!
Open your Heart!
Yeah, Yeeeahhh…
We all cheer as they finished up and walked back down Rage and Ace gave each other a friendly hug. "Ace what in blazes are you doing here?" he asks him
"I heard you left Mobius after what happned so I thought I would come over and join you. I heard CHS is way better anyways." He replies
"Awesome." Rage smiles with a thumbs up before looking over towards where shadow was and his eyes shrink, Ace Sonic and I look as well and our mouths dropped! Shadow and Rebbeca finally shared their first kiss! "I'll be damned almost two months later and look at this." Rage smirks
"Attention please." Principle Celestia broke our conversation as she takes the stage. "First off I would like to give a big round of applause to The Chaos Control Freaks you guys played great. Also it is time I announce this year's Princess of the Fall Formal!" everybody went quiet as Vice Principle Luna hands her the envelope with the name of the winner. "This year's winner is…Twilight Sparkle!" she announces and we all cheer I can't believe it Twilight won! I was so happy for her I couldn't find the words to explain it!
After everything settled down I walked over to Rage giving Twilight a hug and congratulating her on her victory. "Thank you." I heard her say but I knew cause she told me earlier in the week.
"Rainbow Dash?" Twilight asks
"Yeah?" I replied to her
"I made up my mind about Rage." She says
"What you gonna ask him out?" I ask back
"I am going to ask him to the Fall Formal" she replies
"What is that it?" I ask her
"No if I win princess I think I am going to ask him to be my boyfriend." Twilight says "I'll pull him aside and I know he will congratulate me that is when I am going to ask him." It was so perfect but I always wondered what if she didn't win?
"Rage?" She asks oh my gosh here it comes "Will you be my boyfriend?" she asks him. I don't think Rage was expecting it at all because he looked dumbfounded at a loss for words even!
"Twilight." He smiles with a big deep blush "I would love to." He replies hugging her. I actually shed a tear as Ace walks up.
"Well what do ya know." He smirks "Rage has his first girlfriend." Wait first? I looked at Ace in shock
"First?" I ask him
"Yeah, back at Mobius High he didn't talk to others much, besides Sonic, Shadow and myself he was quiet. There was a girl name Christina but stuff happened and Rage ended up not liking her." He tells me. That was enough for one night I found sonic we said our good nights and I gave him a kiss before heading home for the night.
To be continued…
Well what do you guys think?
