The Sirens

Chapter Seven: The Sirens

“Deep beneath the ocean of all pride and ambition lie the fears that I have never known…” Adagio said trying to sing, but she was very quickly interrupted by the other two named Sonata and Aria.

“That’s not how you do it,” Aria said.

“No, she’s doing it right,” Sonata said.

“Is not,” Aria countered.

“Is too.”

This went on for awhile until Adagio finally decided to break it up. "QUIET!!" She shouted. "I am doing it right and I will not have you two interrupting me while I practice, is that clear?"

"Yeah, it's clear," Aria answered.

“Yep, clear enough for me,” Sonata said.

“Good. Now I expect you two to remain quiet unless something very important comes up that you absolutely need to say.”

“Well, there is one thing that comes to mind,” Aria.

"And what is that?" Asked Adagio, clearly annoyed.

"Just look," Aria answered.

"Hm, a unicorn in love with a seapony. How foolish of him. But, this will give us the chance for more power so we can finally achieve what we want!"

“Oh, is it tacos? Please tell me that its’ tacos,” Sonata said almost squeeing with pure delight.

“No! It’s not tacos! It’s control of the Sea Kingdom, you idiot!” Adagio shouted in her anger.

“And once we have the princess, we can control the king, whoever controls the king rules the kingdom, and they that rule the kingdom rules the entire ocean. Once we have that, all ponies daring to sail across the water must first answer to us or instead face our wrath and the charms of our songs.”

“Oh, that makes a whole lot more sense than tacos.”

(Due to the violent and extreme nature of language by Adagio in the next scene, the author has decided to remove it and keep on moving foward with the story).
