//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 // Story: Mobians and Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks // by DarkMaster0224 //------------------------------// Chapter 2 Chaos Harmony Returns (Canterlot High) As Sunset was bring the three new girls around, she noticed the poster for the Musical Showcase. She smiled and ran over to it, “Oh, we’re having a musical showcase next week. I’m sure if you spoke to principal Celestia, she’d would surely let you sign up.” “A musical showcase you say?” Adagio said looking at her sisters. “We do happen to sing from time to time.” Aria said. “Duh, we sing like all the time.” Sonata blurted. Adagio whipped around and signaled for her to shut up. “What did I say?” Sonata asked confused. “What you meant to say is that this showcase is a great way for us to meet other students.” Adagio said glaring at the youngest sister. “Oooh. Right. What she said I meant to say. That’s what I meant to say.” Sonata said. “What you meant to say, if you weren't the worst!” Aria said. “No you are.” Sonata replied. “You’ll have to excuse them.” Adagio said standing in front of the arguing sisters, “They’re idiots.” There was an awkward moment of silence, then Sunset saw their matching pendants, “Oh. Those are pretty.” Adagio made a quick swipe at Sunset’s wrist, then realized what she was doing, “Ahehehe. Sorry, these pendants mean an awful lot to us. We’d just hate to see anything happen to them.” The three went on past Sunset, Aria needing to pull Sonata to follow them. Sunset looked at the three in question. (Outside the School) Seven shiny object were falling from the sky, each with a separate crash course. One crashed into the school front lawn. It was a glowing red emerald. The other six stopped in mid air above the school, and then flew off towards the city. The red chaos emerald glowed brightly, waiting for someone to pick it up. Inside the Chaos Emerald, a red lightning bolt crystal object glowed. (School Cafeteria) Sunset sighed as she sat down next to her friends, not even going to get her lunch. “So how was the tour?” Applejack asked. “I don’t know, those girls… There’s something, off, about them.” Sunset said. “Oh oh oh, you mean off like this?” Pinkie said fumbling her hair, “Or off like this?” She put her carrots in her mouth making her look like a vampire, “Or or!” “How about we just let her explain.” Rainbow said. “That’s just it, I can’t seem to understand.” Sunset said. Speaking of which. The Dazzlings came into the cafeteria, singing in a lovely tone. Everyone’s attention went to the three girls. They began singing, “Aah ah ah, aah ah ah. Aah, ah, ah.” “We heard you want to get together. We heard you want to rock the school We thought of something that is better Something that changes all the rules Why pretend we're all the same When some of us shine brighter? Shine brighter Here's a chance to find your flame Are you a loser or a fighter? “What the heck is this all about?” Rainbow asked. “I don’t know. The musical showcase isn’t starting until next week.” Applejack said. “Maybe they’re just trying to show off.” Sunset said, ‘Or maybe there is something else going on.’ She thought looking at their glowing pendants. She didn’t remember them glowing before. Me and you, you and me Why don't we see who is better? We don't have to be one and the same thing Oh, what's so wrong with a little competition? Are you afraid of failing the audition? You're a star and you should know it Yeah, you rise above the rest It doesn't matter who you hurt If you're just proving you're the best Ah, ahh-ahh Battle! You wanna win it Let's have a battle, battle of the bands Let's have a battle, we'll go all in it Let's have a battle, battle, battle Battle of the bands Battle! “I can beat you!” A student said pointing at another. Battle! “Ha! You wish!” She replied. Battle! “I so want this!” Trixie said. Battle! “Not if I get it first!” Another replied. Me and you, you and me Why don't we see who is better? We don't have to be one and the same thing Oh, what's so wrong with a little competition? I'm going up and winning the audition The girls began to notice some friction happening between the students. Sunset however, noticed the sparkling mist on the ground, coming out of the students, ‘That can’t be good.’ Battle! We wanna win it Let's have a battle, battle of the bands Let's have a battle, we'll go all in it Let's have a battle, battle, battle Battle of the bands! All the students began arguing with each other. “Oooh. They’re that kind of off.” Pinkie said. After that, the school bell rang, signalling everyone was to report to their classrooms. But then Principal Celestia’s voice spoke up, “Rainbow Dash, Sunset Shimmer, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity please report to the front of the school. Immediately.” “Huh?” The girls said looking at one another. They then dashed off towards the front of the school. Adagio, Aria, and Sonata were too busy absorbing all the negative energy from the students. But then something caught their attention. A huge amount of Chaos and Equestrian energy just surged in the area. “Did you two just feel that?” Sonata asked. “Yeah, that is a lot of Chaos Equestrian magic.” Adagio said. “But where is it coming from?” Aria asked. “Hmm… Perhaps we should, ask, around about the past events here.” Adagio said looking at the students under their spell. (Front of the school) The girls each saw Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna standing over something. “We came as quickly as we could.” Sunset said. “What is it you needed us for?” Fluttershy asked. “You said we weren’t expecting any visitors. Right?” Luna asked. “Yeah, why?” Rainbow said trying to see what the two sisters were standing over. “Then please explain this.” Celestia said moving out of the way, showing the Red Chaos Emerald glowing in the ground. The girls gasped. “A Chaos Emerald!?” Rainbow said, “But how is this possible? Sonic and his friends went back to Mobius with the Emeralds.” “I do not know. We don’t dare touch it knowing what happened to students last year.” Luna said. Applejack went to pick it up, but the moment her hand touched it, she was blasted away by a shockwave. “Whoa. What the hay was that?” Applejack asked. Sunset looked at them emerald closely, then she saw it. The red lightning bolt crystal inside it, “That’s an Element of Harmony inside the Chaos Emerald!” “What’s an element of harmony?” Rainbow asked. “It’s the same thing as the Element that was embedded in Twilight’s crown.” Sunset said, “A magical element representing a form of Friendship. But what is it doing in a Chaos Emerald, nevermind here?” “I may know a little bit about that.” A female voice asked. They all turned and gasped. Twilight Sparkle was standing behind the girls, along with Spike. “Twilight!” The girls said running over to the purple teen. They all join together in a group hug. “What are you doing here, darling?” Rarity asked. “I was about to explain that.” Twilight said. She pointed at the Chaos Emerald, “I was going to go get book, when all of a sudden, six of the Chaos Emeralds in appeared in the library.” “Wait, they just appeared?” Sunset asked, “No Mobians were there?” “Yeah. And then they flew off through the castle…” Twilight was saying, but was cut off by Rarity grabbing her tightly. “Castle! You have a castle!?” Rarity squealed. “Umm Rarity, more important stuff.” Rainbow said. “Oh. Right sorry.” Rarity said backing away from Twilight. “As I was saying, they began to fly around the castle, until they got to the vault.” Twilight said, “Except the only things I kept in there was the Elements of Harmony. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna helped me protect it with a spell that only an Alicorn should be able to open.” “Ok. That doesn’t explain much still.” Applejack said. “I wasn’t done.” Twilight said bluntly, “The Emeralds then passed through the vault door like it was nothing. I quickly opened the vault, only to see the Chaos Emeralds and Elements merge with one another. Even mine. Then they flew off again, and flew through the mirror into here.” “So you’re saying that the Chaos Emeralds appeared out of nowhere, merged with your ‘elements’, then flew through the portal, and ended up on the front lawn of the school?” Rainbow asked. “Yeah, pretty much.” Twilight said. “Then I have one question. Why can’t we pick it up?” Applejack said. “What do you mean?” Twilight said going to reach out for the emerald. “Twilight! NO!” They shouted. Too late, Twilight grabbed the emerald, and she was blasted back by the shock wave, “Ahg!” “Hehe. Let me try!” Pinkie said going to grab the emerald. She was blasted back as well, “Weeeheeee!” Sunset helped the two back up, “Yeah everytime we go to touch it, that happens.” Twilight looked at the Chaos Emerald, then saw the Element of Loyalty in it, “That’s probably why.” “What?” Sunset asked. “The emerald might now be linked to the element that is inside it.” Twilight said, “The red emerald is linked to the Element of Loyalty. In Equestria, Rainbow Dash is the representative of Loyalty. Maybe Rainbow Dash is the one who needs to take this emerald.” “Are you sure? I personally don’t want to go across the yard.” Rainbow said. “It’s only a theory.” Twilight said, “But I’m 90% sure I’m right.” “Ok then. If not, you owe me a game of one on one soccer.” Rainbow said. Twilight nodded. Rainbow turned to the emerald, “Please be right.” She reached out to grab the emerald. “Please be right.” Twilight said at the thought of one on one with Rainbow Dash. Rainbow’s hand made contact with the glassy surface of the emerald, and she was able to pull it out of the ground. The emerald glowed brightly in her hand. Then the element of harmony popped out of them emerald, and began floating around Rainbow. “Um, Twilight?” Rainbow asked looking at the girl. Twilight only stared in confusion. The element then stopped at Rainbow’s wrist, where her Chaos Element was. The two elements then switched places, “What the?” Rainbow said watching the Chaos Element be replaced by the Element of Harmony. The Chaos Element then returned into the Chaos Emerald, where it originally came from. “What just happened?” Rainbow asked. “I think your Chaos Element was just replaced with the Loyalty element.” Twilight said looking at the Chaos Emerald. “Wait does that mean?” Rainbow said trying to activate her transformation. But nothing happened, “NO!” Rainbow screamed in horror. “Well that’s not good.” Pinkie said scratching her head. “Well that’s just great, I can’t use my powers anymore and I’ve lost my awesome ninja outfit.” Rainbow pouted as she crossed her arms. “Ok so now then, if any of you find another Chaos Emerald, DO NOT touch it.” Twilight said. “What do we do then?” Fluttershy asked. “Just leave it until we find a way to remove it safely.” Twilight said. They all nodded. “God damn you stupid emerald.” Rainbow said putting the red emerald into her pocket. Little did any of the girls notice the three figures watching them from the shadows. “I sense chaos energy coming from that strange gem that girl has.” Aria said. “I sense that all them have Equestrian magic in them, particularly the purple girl and that Sunset Shimmer person.” Adagio said. “So how do we plan to take it from them?” Sonata asked. “Duh, like we always do.” Aria said, “Cause a friction between them, and feed off their magic.” “Well that’s not going to be easy. They seem to be protected by some kind of magic of their own.” Adagio said, “They would have fallen under our spell if they weren’t.” “We need to get stronger than that spell then.” Aria said. “How about we find one of those emeralds? I heard them say something about there being more than one.” Sonata said. Both Aria and Adagio just stared at the girl. “What?” Sonata asked. “You’re not as stupid as you look apparently.” Aria said. “Hey, what’s supposed to mean?” Sonata said crossing her arms. “Then its settled, we need one of those emeralds.” Adagio said, “After school, follow those girls and see if you can find one.” They nodded. Adagio smiled evilly at the girls, “You are all in for a surprise. Not just a battle of bands, but a Chaotic one.”
