"Hey, Mr. BenSwolo?" Aria nudged my sleeping body as I reluctantly woke up from my sleep. I saw Aria more worried than usual and saw Sonata and Adagio were just as worried.
"Mind telling me what you need my help with now?" I asked as I stretched my body.
"We kind of need your help to not have a bad day at school," Aria sheepishly explained. I tilted my head in confusion.
"Why? Were the other days of school before now completely terrible, and now you want me to fix that?" I asked as the three girls looked down in disappointment.
"Actually, since the Battle of the Bands, we've been too afraid to go back. We were just too worried to get ourselves bullied for taking over the school," Adagio explained. I stared at Adagio in surprise, then got to my notebook and re-read the first and second chapters of this fanfic.
"Huh. Would you look at that? I forgot to put that in there," I said, closing the notebook and keeping it closeby.
"Alright, I guess I'm fair game." I agreed. I then played the couch like a drum and headed to the bathroom, where I found a backpack full of school supplies in the bathtub. I picked the backpack on and headed out with the Dazzlings.
"Y'know, wouldn't it be easier to just snap your fingers if you needed something?" Sonata asked, as I casually shrugged at the question.
"If you want the power to do anything, you don't wanna limit yourself to a mere snap," I responded as I found a pair of sunglasses in the backpack and put them on. As the four of us headed to Canterlot High, the girls stiffened, as if they saw a ghost. I stared back at them as if I saw a cat missing the litter box. I sighed.
"Dazzlings, come on!" I said, startling them. "I'm gonna make it so nobody immediately notices you," The three of them reluctantly followed as I performed a frenzied tap dance to get everyone's attention, but gaining none.
"See? It's safe," I said as the sirens followed suit. The girls felt as if nobody recognized them.
"How are we--?" Adagio wondered as a lot of cameo faces walked by and did not bat an eye.
"Plot armor. Mighty powerful stuff," I explained as the Dazzlings walked by a familiar face; Flash Sentry.
"Wha--the Dazzlings?" Flash exclaimed as everyone suddenly turned and faced Adagio, Aria, and Sonata. They didn't notice, nor care much for me. I just slipped to the side.
"If you need me, I'll be over here," I whispered to them as the students closed in on the Dazzlings as if they were a zombie horde.
"Just what do you think you're doing back here? Came back for round two? Well, when Twilight gets here, she's gonna--" Flash Sentry yelled, as Adagio interrupted.
"Could you leave us alone? We're just trying to get to class," Adagio explained as Flash's sight engulfed like a bull's.
"I don't think we should believe you in the slightest," Flash said as one of the background students threw a wad of paper at the Dazzlings. And slowly, everyone in the circle was throwing wads of paper at the Dazzlings. Knowing this is all they could take, I stepped in and everyone stopped firing.
"What are you doing?" Flash Sentry asked.
"Well, I'm stopping you for one thing," I answered in a nonchalant tone.
"You do realize that these three tried to hypnotize us and take over the school, right?" Flash said, trying to guilt trip me.
"Yeah, and that's why I'm with them. I always appreciated villains, to be perfectly honest," I confessed, as Adagio had no idea how to react to that statement.
"Now, if you could just--give me a high five--there..." I said, moving back to the Dazzlings, hoping one would give me a high five. They didn't know what I was gonna do, but unlike everyone else, they knew I was up to something. Reluctantly, Sonata clapped my hand, and a little jingle played off in the Dazzling's ears, but not in everyone else's.
"OK, there we go," I said, getting back to writing in my notebook. Flash looked at me confused.
"And what was that was supposed to do?" Flash remarked.
"Just open your locker and you'll find out." I implored Flash to do. Everyone else soon followed though they wondered why. Flash entered his number combination and opened the door, revealing a little can full of a glowing green goo. It didn't really do much, but it had a horrendous smell, almost making everyone sick to their stomachs. Everyone covered their noses, fanned the air, and backed away from Flash's locker. I'm pretty sure one of the background students threw up even. Distracted by the stink, I got the girls up and they took a shortcut to the lockers the school gave them.
"Thanks for the help," Adagio said as the three dazzlings got to their lockers.
"You are ever so welcome," I say, bowing to Adagio as if asking for a dance. Adagio giggled and attempted to open the locker.
"Before you do that..." I said, before banging the top of the locker like a drum.
"Now you may proceed." I then said as Adagio opened her locker. Adagio gasped as she found a little bottle of perfume that had the most delightful scent. Sonata opened her locker and found a bouquet of flowers. And Aria opened hers and found a stick of deodorant for men.
"Well, at least you didn't give me anything lovey-dovey." Aria quipped. Sonata jumped to hug me.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, sooo much..." Sonata said, squeezing me so tight I couldn't breathe.
"Again, you are ever so welcome. Consider it my gift to you, and a kind of way to block out the stink." I said as a small group of students was running off from the awful smell in Flash Sentry's locker.
"You know, you've been doing nothing but helping us out since you got here," Adagio noted as the four of us headed off to class as if nobody hated the Dazzlings anymore.
"What can I say? You girls have quite the fanbase." I confessed as we walked by Sunset Shimmer, who was quietly, but more or less shocked than any other student that the Dazzlings have returned.
