Sonata Dusk tries to capture a feeling from not too long ago, when everything was going her way...

Edited by Bad_Seed_72!

Celery Stork, is your average high school student in CHS. With the arrival of the new semester, he made it his goal to find a school club to join.

School clubs are very important for a student of CHS. It helps the students to make new friends, to unearth hidden potentials within them, to discover new hobbies and entertainment and much, much more.

But it isn't as easy as our protagonist expected. He soon finds himself joining an unlikely and unusual school club. How will this club affect his school life? How will this club affect him?

This is set in the Equestria Girls universe. So, yeah. Humans instead of ponies. Enjoy.

Sonata Dusk plays in the park under the watchful eyes of Aria and Adagio.

This story is a sequel to An Open Door

After receiving a request from a rather unexpected source, Twilight helps deliver a long-overdue message from Celestia to her former student.

This story is set one month after An Open Door, which itself occurs about six months after Rainbow Rocks.

It's not required to read Open Door first. Just go into this story with the understanding that the Dazzlings have started to befriend the others, and have come to realize there is some joy to be found in their new life-after-magic. If you're interested in how that went down on this timeline from Adagio's perspective, then Open Door is the place to check that out.

Cover art is my own. You may have seen it here already, as another author had created a story based on it some time ago. Drawing this piece is what got me interested in fanfiction. So now that I've had a taste of writing with Open Door, I've decided to come full-circle and write something for it myself.

Pre-reading and brief creative input from Jondor (thanks, man)
Editing, proof-reading and additional input from Csquared08 (I made some small tweaks after the final edit pass, just recently. So any typos are my fault and not something overlooked by C. ;)

Sonata Dusk has had enough. She joined the Dazzlings for power, and sought after the weak and lonely. But now it's her turn to be lonely and weak as she recalls scenes from her past she thought she forgot. But these thoughts were a part of her. But the best way to exert these feelings is with a poem. (This is unrelated to Pony Tatakai- Adagio Death.)

Marked Teen for scenes of gore and a word frequented by potty-mouths.

When Sonata Dusk is found murdered in a backalley, the other sirens find themselves alone and friendless, except for perhaps one person. Sunset Shimmer, attempting to befriend them at school, feels for their loss, and tries to console them. Meanwhile, a murderer with an apparent grudge against the Dazzlings is still on the loose.

After losing their magic, the Dazzlings are hit hard by shame and sadness. None are more hopeless than Adagio Dazzle, who loses all light in her life and begins to sing a swan song. For sirens, this is suicide.

Sonata Dusk begs for the help of Sunset Shimmer and her friends to stop the song and keep Adagio alive, but they discover that saving a life is more difficult than saving a school, and they may not be able to keep their former enemy from fading away forever.

This story was inspired by the song "Never Too Late" by Three Days Grace.

"Main 6" is tagged but Twilight is not in this story.
Rated Teen for language and mature subject matter.

Are there times you've ever wondered, "Jee, why did the girls at Canterlot High forgive Sunset Shimmer for her evil succubus meddling so easily?"

The answer's simple: "Because, deep down, she's a pretty pretty pony, you stupid melon fudges!"

Spoilers for those who haven't scene Rainbow Rocks! Don't read past this point!

The Dazzling's are now defeated, in shambles and now they have to live their life as normal teenage girls. So what can happen, well when your have a trio of people who everyone hates, what normally happens. Wacky shenanigans, over the top situations and various schemes to try and get back on top. These are The Dazzling adventures of The Dazzlings

Sonata has a bad nightmare and asks Aria if she can bunk with her since Adagio is no where to be found. Aria of course refuses, but gives in, leaving them in a very interesting position when Adagio comes back.
