This story is a sequel to Flash Sentry, Defender of the Peace S4
Several weeks have passed since the Fall Formal and Canterlot High is back to normal, well...almost. But as the school prepares for a music festival, three strange girls appear with dark aspirations. Can our high school heroes find out what they're planning and save the day, or will Canterlot High fall to these girls' dark melody?

Oh Sunset, if you only knew.
While I am not too keen on the whole human-verse existance of the Royal Knight, got to give props for krissimsters.files.wordpress.com/2016/04/982341__safe_solo_oc_oconly_hippogriff_artist-colon-mlp-dash-silver-dash-quill_oc-colon-silverquill_continuity.jpeg?w=1000 , but I really liked Grand's pointing out Rainbow's flaw in her playing, finally someone called her out...
Third Act, Sugarcube.
This is going to be awesome. I wonder how big of a role the Royal Knights will play here? I'm actually surprised Lightning isn't back. I was expecting him to be back by now but if he refused to come back then now I'm wondering if he has become like how Pony Lightning was at the beginning of the series before he became friends with Flash and the others.

Yeah, I was wondering that also. Maybe we'll get more answers when Friendship Games comes along.
Cool let's see how this turns out. Makes me wonder about down the line with Sunset and Lightning in the future.
(Cough) that was Stygian's plan and Star Swirl needed the other five Pillars (cough)
Nice re-introduction to Flash and Twilight, establish the treat of the Sirens, not much else to say
9555630 We know that, but they don't. Remember, history is written by the winners. Starswirl probably removed all traces of Stygian's existence after he was banished.

I doubt that you're not going to prove my assertion when you get to the Season 7 finale
Flash and Twilight have arrived. I like Flash's small rant about how ancient evil was always sealed away instead of defeated, since it always come back eventually. The show really does like to use the Sealed Evil in a Can trope.
PLEASE don't make Flash act like a jerk in this one. I'm tired of the fandom using him as a punching bag.
9555809 He won't be a jerk. He may be a bit of a heckler, but that's in character for him.
Great chapter. So we get our two hero's into the fray. I wonder if Flash will get recruited into the Royal Knights and if so, can he help break them free from the spell? Thanks for writing this.
I always thought that scene with the bands at the party was embarrassing when absolutely nothing happened. The creators said it was a way to make fun of how they previously solved their problems from out of nowhere (which includes the first EG film) but I honestly wish they did it another way.
I still think its funny how all the human friends they have immediately can tell Flash and Twilight are going to be a couple, despite having known them such a short time.
Flash is right, that is literally the whole point of being hexed or brainwashed.
Great work! And I caught a reference to “Dragons: Race to the Edge” in here! It’s one of my favorite shows!
SEVEN!
Goodness me! Flash, run!
Dang! So close!
Ya think?
There you go, haters. See, my boy is smart. So what if he isn't good at math? He's still a smart boy.
All that being said, it's not bad. It's a little short for something that took 20 minutes though.
9569613 Rhyming is not my forty. Why do you think I don't use Zecora that much in original scenes
awesome!
“Leave that to me” that line from Adagio, I have a feeling she’s gonna do something to Flash
Flash with his own band having his own clash with the sirens and Sonata wanting Flash... I'd sue for copyright infringement, but in my fic it was Adagio that... well feel to read it for yourself.
Nice to have Flash and Twilight separated in this, maybe with some distance between them they will see what everyone does.
Not sure how I feel about 'Count up your sins' as a song, the phrase itself felt massively watered down halfway through the Doomsday Arch when Everypony started using it, well to me anyway.
9569613
You weren't so panicky when Adagio hexed Flash in my work... I feel betrayed ... somehow...
9572924
I freaked out at the second or third chapter because I thought that he was going to get raped. I even kicked you out of the plot explosion bunker. Also, I helped you edit that story. The shock got watered down by the time the finished product was published.
9572966
Objectively true, but it still stings
9573048
Need some time alone in the bunker?
9573081
No, I'll get over it.
9573081 Wait, you have a bunker. Why haven't I been invited?
9573327
Do you read CartoonNerd12's stories?
9573523 I've read a few of them. Midnight Dance and a few of its sequels. And I read Brotherhood and Sister whenever it gets updated. Why?
9573597
The bunker is for whenever she writes what I like to call "plot explosions" or "big booms," hence why it's called the plot explosion bunker. You're welcome to join us next time.
9573645 Just send me the address.
9573685
It's an imaginary bunker, so I can't give you a physical address, but we normally use it while reading Brotherhood and Sisterhood. I think we're also probably going to start using it for KidatHeart5's story Prisoners of the Heart.
I just thought of something hilarious.
: Get back here with my husbando! Husbando-stealers!
I regret nothing!
yeah doesn't have the same impact as if Flash said it...
Part .... CONTINUITY!, and unless we get a scene of Twilight Velvet or Flash's actual mother saying that, technically Flash is a liar
Not Grand, anybody but Grand...
A nice talk between Flash and Sunset, I kind of expected Sunset to give Flash a 'Thank you' kiss which Twilight sees and misunderstands... I've seen too many high school set anime...
Awesome!!
Well the finals are soon, which means the ending is near. I'm glad Flash's infamous scene was given to his human bandmates, and the worse Flash's attitude got was calling them out on their own bad attitude, which is understandable since they were acting like the Pony Iron or Pony Lightning did in season 1. Hope Grand will be okay.
I think Flash may have dodged a bullet there. There's an old saying, "don't ever stick your dick in crazy."
There's another quote that I remember I think would help Sunset, "your past doesn't define who you are, it just gives you the starting point for who you're going to be."
Yeah, the differences between the two Trixie's are much easier to see here thank to Pony Trixie being made a friend much faster thanks to Flash.
Yeeeeeeaaaaaah, I have (pause) opinions about this. If you want to know what they are, it's probably best discussed over PM.
Dang! That ending!
To your credit, you changed this story up a lot more than I thought you were going to.
9583363 PM me.
That is the plan.... OH I didn't see that coming. Flash is going to be devastated. Nice twist. I can't wait, we are getting near the finalle. And I wonder if the little extra scene at the end will hint to where Flash is in this world. And I hope we see what Springer is, maybe a card, a plushie or keychain. Great job here.
awesome!
Man, it must have really hurt for Flash to fight his mentor, even if it is a different version of him. I liked the call forward with Flash using "Twilighting". I also kinda liked how Flash called out Trixie's behavior, since in canon she didn't seem to show any remorse for cheating or gratitude for being freed. Now I wonder if she'll be punished for cheating in the first round and her illegal reentry in the finals.
Oh, I know, baby, I know.
You said that this story was going to be basically the same as canon. You don't give yourself enough credit. The stuff you added worked great.
This was pretty good. It might have been mostly the same, like you said it would, but all your small changes were great. I'm really excited for the rest of the Equestria Girls movies to get done now since things will really pick up with the new human Flash. Also, human Flash and Twilight being friends with the human Lightning and I'm going to guess the human Ruby was very surprising. I can't wait to see how that plays out. On to the next story!
Okay, that last part suggests that something very aggressive is going to happen next. Should I be concerned?
9609130 If you mean the friendship games, I wouldn't be expecting an easy time.
Hmmm.... So far, so good. I wonder what's next. Two future threats; one creating a battle across time, the other bringing cracks on the space between the two worlds. This is going to be something, I can feel it.
Anyway, I'm very interested on how are you and your editor are going to handle Season 5 and the Friendship Games. So many things to look forward to. Let's see.... Rara, the Crusaders, 100th episode.... Abacus Cinch. Midnight Sparkle. And Starlight Glimmer. This is going to be a very fun ride, and I can just feel it!
I was wondering where the EqG's Flash was.
Oh hoho! Things are gettin' GOOOD!! 😊...... Sequel. SEQUEL NOW--I COMMAND THEE! 😀
9897063 There are like...three sequels out.
...... *slaps forehead* I should have known he would say something like that. Let me explain. I know and have known there were sequels out.... And I've read all of them(not trying to sound rude or disrespectful in any way), I just meant sequel as in a Friendship Games version. Unless there IS one and I missed it somehow? 'Cause if there is.... *insert inner squealing and extreme fangirling here*
Apologies. I'm looking back at my comment now and realizing how..... Absolutely ridiculous it looked from your standpoint of view.
9898876 Don't worry, there'll be one. Though I won't be able to get to it until the end of S5, since that's when it takes place.
IN THE FLASHSENTRY CHRONICLES SOMETIMES A ROYAL KNIGHT NEEDS TO ROCK HARDER WITH THEIR FRINDS IN ORDER TO STOP EVIL DOERS
Sunset looked down, now seeing that Twilight had pressed down too hard on the book, snapping her pencil. her eyes drifted back up to see Twilight with wide eyes, "What?! No! We're just friends."
"Oh, come on," Sunset took Twilight's pencil and put it in a nearby sharpener, "I've seen the way you two are together. You have got to be a couple."
"No, serious." She crossed her hands as she stressed her next word, "Friends."
Sunset rolled her eyes at this as she gave Twilight her pencil back before looking away. "You know...he's kinda cute, don't you think?" She looked back and saw Twilight was slightly blushing.
"I guess. If you like that...unassuming...heroic...knightly type."
I love this! How to train your dragon race to the edge! I love how you put both my favorite things together! Love this phrase! 💗
