Gamer 26

Game Life & the Game Players were in the gymnasium helping with the decorations “At least Principal C was kind enough to let us add our taste in designs.” Said Game Life as he was making a Note Block from Super Mario Bros. 3 as tunes was making a papier-mâché of Amigo from Samba de Amigo as she was listening to music from PaRappa the Rapper.

What's your name? What's your name, fool? What's my name? What's my name, fool?” IQ removed her earbuds. “Hey!”

“Sorry for that but we got the troll against Video Game watching us” He said as they all saw him staring at them. The players narrow their eyes as Vice-P Luna notify him to stop harassing the Gamers Club since their grades are acceptable, & they had evidence of him insulting them. His paycheck was in line of being dock.

“Thank you, vice.” Said sharp as she helps add color to those characters from Eternal Sonata. “Tell me something? How did we get permission to add our designs?” She asked.

“We agreed to add only characters & objects if it’s connected to music.” Said Death “It’s a good thing, we got a Gamer of Rhythm theme video games with us.” IQ is creating that stone with the 8 Melodies from Earthbound, Dark was creating a portage of Alice, Hans & Ecila from Deemo.

Deemo may have been a Rhythm video game but the tragedy is the ending to discover that Alice was in a coma & lost her sibling but learns piano to honor his memory.”

“That might be the most heart touching speech. You’ve ever said, Dark speed.” Said Fancy.

“Without Tragedy, how will we truly feel.” He answered as Fancy drew the mascot form Taiko no Tatsujin, Death & Large made a cutout of Ulala from Space Channel 5.

“So, Tunes.” Said Exo who was airbrushing Tempo from Harmo Knight. “What song you gonna sing?”

“Can’t spoil it.” Answer Tunes.

“Why?”

“Because I have a list of songs to sing & I don’t want the worst teacher to put a pause to them.

“True.” Said the Gamers as Game Life started a new craft of Parappa the Rapper.

“Let’s put a pause because Celestia have something to say.” Said Game Life as they stop & looked to see Principal C & VP Luna entering.

“Good Afternoon, students. I just want to tell you all how pleased I am that so many of you are going to participate in the first ever Canterlot High School Musical Showcase.” Said Principal Celestia.

“This is a first for us.” Said Dark Speed as everyone cheered happily.

“This is a wonderful opportunity to raise money for all our afterschool programs here at CHS. So, keep working on those signs & posters.”

“I thought we were okay with our club? Said Fancy.

“We are.” Said IQ “You pay most of it as we pay 50 bucks.”

“I this it’s going to be one of the most exciting events we’ve had at CHS since the Fall Formal.” Now, every student looked at Sunset Shimmer with hateful glares as she looked away with humiliation. The Gamers were in their clubroom, 10 minutes near noon.

“Some can forgive but all can never forget. Dark Speed or until someone shows a link that someone said that before Dark Speed.” Said Dark Speed as the Game Players looked away.

“I doubt everyone will forgive Sunset Shimmer in a few days. Or if something worse than her since the populace will turn their hate to something else. Like sheep & fools.” Said IQ.

“So, what are you gonna sing, Tunes?” Said Sharp as she was playing Sunset Overdrive. “I doubt the biggest asshole of teachers in CHS will let you sing more than one song from video games in a row.” Tunes lower the volume on her MP3 Player.

“I got a ton of songs I love & planned since last talent show. I’ll start with a non-gaming song first, then a song from an anime and at the finale, We’ll Reach Out For The Truth!” Said Tunes as the others clap for her as their advisor teacher woke up, with Prank & Sea sleeping next to her on a mat.

“*YAWN* Morning Kinds. Or Good afternoon.”

“Good Afternoon, Miss Lax.” Said everyone.

“I heard about the Musical Showcase. Have fun Sweet Tunes & be careful about your songs. Mr. Strict Poopybutt will disqualify you if you sing a swear word. “He’s such a nag.” They nodded as Tune was leaving.

“I’m going to the restroom. We’ll talk about how you guys can play and sing after lunch.” She said as they give her the thumbs up.

One Flush later Tunes came out of the bathroom refreshed. She walked bas as Sunset, Pinkie, Applejack, Rainbow, Rarity and Fluttershy ran around her that Tunes nearly fell. “HEY!”

“Sorry Tuney!” yelled Pinkie.

“What’s with the dash? Did Lord Jackass cook those crappy Soy & Tofu blocks again?” Said Tunes as she heard some high note singing. “Wait a sec… I know that singing anywhere.” She turned around and saw nothing. “Hmm… Must have imagined it.” Said Tunes as she heads towards the cafeteria as Adagio, Aria and Sonata came out from a different hallway.

“Uh… did you two hear Sweet Tunes?” asked Sonata.

“It must have been your imagination, Sonata. “Said Adagio. “We got to find the only club that wasn’t in the cafeteria.”

“Why bother?” Said Aria “We got a fill of negative energy. We don’t need the energy from video game geeks, “she said as Sonata pushed her into Adagio.

“Don’t say that!” yelled Sonata. “Gamers take their video games serious. Besides, doesn’t our new siren sister, Sweet Tunes love soundtracks from video games?” Aria snarled at her, but it was true that their new Siren member loves that kind of music.

“There’s a music contest here, perhaps this is her school?” said Adagio as they found the clubroom and hear loud music. “What is that?”

“It sounds like…?” Said Aria. Sonata gasp happily as she opened the door to see a group of students grooving to Jump Up, Super Star.”

“YAY” They all looked to see three girls, unknown to them, had entered the room as Exo pulled out her brass knuckles & Fancy stopped the music.

“Who the hell are you intruders!?” Yelled Exo as Sonata jumped into a pile of plushies of video game characters.

“Sorry for Exo’s temper but we thought it was a teacher who always harass us & calling us lost cause.” Said Fancy as she was holding back Exo who was flailing around.

“We never had people who visits our club that has a grudge against us.”

“Or who gets annoyed at us for decorating our kind of art in the school.” Said Sharp who remove the plushies to found Sonata who was holding a Princess Daisy & She Slime plushies.

“Don’t make me leave. It’s cute & soft.” Said Sonata as Sharp looked at her.

“No stealing.” She said as Sonata nodded.

“So, before we get to from a Video Game Chatroom, shall we know these fresh players?” Said Game Life."

“Fancy Looks.” She as she bows to them.

“Large Harvest.” Said Large.

“Dark Speed is Dark Speed.” As he looked away.

“High IQ.” Answer IQ as he was on his Laptop.

“Death Alchemist or DA for short.”

“Sharp Shooter, girlies.” Said Sharp.

“Tough Exoskeleton is my name, but I prefer Tough or Exo unless you want a death wish.” She said as she cracks her knuckles.

“I’m Prank Life!”

“And I’m Sea Life!”

“We’re twins!” They both said at the same time, which Sonata blushed as how cute they were. Miss Lax moved a bit & yawned.

“I am Miss Lax, I’m the teacher for this club.” She said as she was hugging a Luxury ball plush.

“Uh… I’m Adagio Dazzle, this is Aria Blaze & the one in a pile of toys is Sonata Dusk.” Aria did a wave that didn’t care as Sonata Dusk happily waved at them. “We’re… new students here. Said Adagio as IQ looked at her. “Uh… it was sudden!” Said Adagio. “You can’t expect the principal to know everything?” She said as IQ ignore it.

“So…” Said Aria “I can see you all… are dedicated to your video games.” She said as she was toys, posters, frames, plushies & home & portable console both old & new were all video game theme.

“Yes, yes we are.” Said Game Life “We think videogames are not only fun but can inspire our imaginations.” He answered.

“Wow… you must be really smart.” Said Sonata which made Game blush, but Fancy got a bit mad. “So… do you know the password of the Sunken Ship in Super Mario RPG; Legend of the Seven Starts?” Game & the other eyes widen as they looked up to see a ceiling tile painted with the 7 starts collected & the creatures & bosses who guards them of collected them.

“It’s pearls.” Said Game Life “When you enter the password, you’ll battle King Calamari & his tentacles. The 2nd boss is named Jonathan Johnny Jones, you’ll battle him with a one-on-one battle as Mario, so buy many Mid-Mushrooms & Maple Syrups. For the fight.” He said as Sonata clapped happily.

“Yeah! I’ll finally get the 5th Star piece!” She said, “Will Mallow finally meet his parents?” They nodded as she smiled. “For realsies?” Dark speed stood up as he walks to a spot near the door.

“For your friend/or sister. A painting of the stars showing the aftermath of the defeat of Smithy. Pained by our club founders; Game Life & Fancy looks.” Said Dark Speed as the Dazzlings were impressed by the artwork.

“Not bad.” Said Aria. “Tell us. Are the members of the Game Player Club will enter the Battle of the Bands?” Everyone looked at Aria.

“Battle of the Bands?” Said Large “I thought it was the Musical Showcase?” He asked as Adagio spoke out.

“Uh… we motivated them since it’s important for their after-school programs.”

“Even the Video Club?” Said Exo.

“FOR REALSIES!!” Yelled Sonata as Sharp handed her a plush of Waddle Dee.

“Don’t let the jackass of the school take it from you. He will take it from you.” She said as Sonata waved goodbye.

“Hope you don’t get upset when our friend who goes by Oceana when she sings on stage. She’ll might win?” Said Fancy.

“We’ll see.” Said Adagio as she & Aria left.

“I’m going to the gymnasium *yawn*” Said Miss Lax as she left. Everyone except the twins narrowed their eyes.

“Did everyone used to ‘Observe’ on those girls?” Said Game.

“Yes.” Said everyone

“Adagio Dazzle LV55” (Large Harvest)

“Aria Blaze LV53” (Death Alchemist)

“Sonata Duck LV49” (Fancy Looks)

“Sirens. From Equestria.” Said Dark Speed.

“Now we don’t need to gather info from Twilight Sparkle.” Said IQ “Someone stupid must have send them here. The reason… unknown to me.”

“Easy.” Said Exo “There’s no magic that’s not from the abyss, & not in the air like when we explored Equestria on the night of the Fall Formal.”

“Perhaps, the fool thought our world would be a prison with no magic & thought our world is harmless,” Said Dark Speed “The idiot.”

“I doubt the fool failed to see the history that we have from the past. “Said Sharp “They probably ignore the kidnappers, cultists & brainless brutes with the pansy mobsters. No offense Exo.”

“None taken & you would kill them all with one shot. You’re like the Dead Shot of this universe.” Said Exo as Sharp smirked.

“So… we should tell Tunes about them?” Said Death.

“Perhaps, but their Levels are higher than ours.” Said Death.

“Un… how long has it been since we’ve been in an ID?” Said Game.

“Since the Formal.” Answer Dark Speed “We’ve been too lax since Miss Beauty & Wealthy Mind’s security had been protecting the city from Hunters.” Fancy turned red.

“I’ve gained 11 lbs. after the formal.” She said “Please don’t argue Game. It’s a girl thing.” Most of the guys & Exo except for Game rolled their eyes.

At the cafeteria
Tunes entered the cafeteria to see everyone arguing. “What the hell?” She said as she was Trixie “Hey what's going on?” Trixie snarled at her.

“Don’t talk like you’re greater than Trixie!”

“No! We will! Yelled Flash Sentry.

“No! The Crusaders will!” Said Applebloom. All the students continued to argue as Tunes put on her earbuds.

“Forget this. I’m leaving.” Said Tunes as she played one of her songs in her music player, a song from her favorite singers. Tunes was enjoying it, she couldn’t resist singing to the song.

“IF you want to view paradise, simply look around & view it!” All the students stopped arguing and look at Sweet tunes. Her pendant glowed, releasing pink mist as the students started to feel a bit happy & cheer up. The mist went into tunes pendant as she left, Trixie looked around.

“Uh… what was Trixie doing?” She said as some students shrugged their shoulders or didn’t know.

“Don’t know” Said Flash Sentry “But the’ Battle of the Bands’ idea those 3 girls said is awesome!” Every cheered as Tunes was them.

“Weird…” She said as she left the cafeteria. (“Who are these three girls Flash talk about?”)

Tunes made it back to the club to see her friends looking worried looking worried, “What’s wrong guys? Did jackass have me disqualified?” She said. They shook their heads.

“Do you remember when I said we should have asked Twilight if her species dump other creatures in our universe?” Death, Tunes nodded “Well… we met them.”

“Them?”

“Sirens. You know in Greek Mythology.” Said IQ as Tunes looked surprised & worry.

“The Sirens… let me guess their names. It’s Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze & Sonata Dusk. Am I right?” They looked surprised.

“How the hell did you know their names? Did you check their stats?” Said Exo.

“No… I’ve met them on my birthday &… I’m now an honorary Siren.” Said Tunes as her friends looked at her. “Don’t tell me, I did the wrong thing by being friends with them?”

“No.” Said Dark Speed.” Dark Speed thinks that Twilight’s universe does not have the right to send their criminals to ours.”

“Agree. “Said IQ “If their crimes are serious; you should not trust them. But if their crimes are pathetic like something stupid, making the population arguing then you should not help the princess” He said.

“Everyone argues.” Answer Sharp. “If you don’t argue and have a 3rd person as the divider; than they have problems, dark problems.”

“Plus, there is a chance that princess will come to conflict them.” Answered Death. “Also, I see your pendant is 100% identical to theirs. Have you ‘observed’ it?” Question Death as Tunes at it.

“No. I got it from my dad when she found in her childhood. I thought of it as a nearly extinct.” She said as she looked at it “Fine. I’ll observe it.” Observe.”

Siren Heart Stone, Increased Musical Attacks by 50%, increased water magic & attacks, MP+300, Type: Accessory - This gem is a Siren’s heart made of magical minerals from the Equestria Dimension. The magic is activated when the Heart Stone is connected to its chosen Siren. Its magic can affect others depending how power the Siren is. 1/2

“Chosen Siren?” Her friends looked at her as they looked at her.

“What’s wrong?” Said Large.

“This pendant is an actual Heart of a Siren.”

“Eww!!” Yelled Fancy as Game calm her down.

“I know & the info on this Heart Stone is intriguing. The magic inside it says only a chosen siren can activate it.”

“Siren?” Said Game Life as he understands it “Oh!” They looked at him “Sweet Tunes is a Siren in the Equestria Dimension. I’m guessing those 3 trusts you like you’re the same as them. Maybe something like your singing must have earned their trust.” Tunes crossed her arms.

“Maybe… but let’s test that theory. I’ll sing a song and you guys shall judge it.”

Tunes sang beautifully as pink mist came out of her pendent as her friends were engulfed by it as a screen appeared in front of them.

Companion’ Sweet Tunes’ singing has developed a change with Siren Heart Stone ‘Tunes’ has become a skill.

[Tune’s Song LV1] This skill is one of a kind & unique. This skill allows Sweet Tunes to increase the stats on allies & decrease the stats on enemies.

“Whoa…” Said Fancy.

“I guess skills as players can become one of a kind.” Said IQ. The song ended as the pink mist enter her pendent as it glowed.

Tunes’ MP has been fully restored.

“I guess you’re right. This gem can affect everyone.” Said tunes as IQ used a magnifier to examine her gem.

“This gem as more information.” He said as a 2nd screen appeared.

The magic within this Heart Stone can replenish MP depending on how much others enjoy the music. Increase Water Attacks & give the skill ‘Water Manipulation’ if the user is contact to a Water Spirit. 2/2.

“*whistle* I might need to buy a summon spell book.” Said Tunes.

“Or go to the Book ID in the library.” Said speed “Now let’s go to the gym. Dark Speed predict that Sweet Tunes’ new friends are there, consuming negative emotions. Dark Speed supports their choice of hunger.

“Whatever.” Said Exo.

“Hey!” Yelled Tunes” I got my gem, and this cheered up everyone right?” They nodded “Want to see Lord Jackass Cheering for us?” She said with a dark smirk, they all smirked evilly.

At the gym
“Friendship is Magic!!!” Yelled Twilight as nothing happened as Sunset looked embarrassed.

“Well-

“WHAT IS THIS INTRUDER DOING HERE!?” Yelled Strict Authority as every student tried not to look in the eyes. “I don’t know how you got in this school again? But you are leaving immediately!” He yelled as Twilight backed away.

“No, wait! You don’t understand!” She screamed.

‘*Door Slams*’

Everyone turned to see Game Life as Strict Authority snarled at him. “What do you want, you lost cause?”

“Ladies, Gentlemen & Jackass!” Strict snarled at him. “Let me introduce Oceana! Known by her fans; Sweet Tunes!!”

“WHAT?!” Yelled the Sirens.

Tunes & the rest of the girls came in, singing as pink mist envelop Strict as everyone except Twilight’s group & the Sirens were feeling calm & happy. Strict looked happy, like ‘peace with the world ’happy. Game waved his hand in front of Strike’s face.

“He’s in a trance. If only he stayed in a blissful state until Exo graduates.” He said.

“We can only pray. If it fails; then our happiness is like a stab within the soul as we die a bit inside of us.” Said Dark Speed.

“A day with Dark Speed’s negative comment. It’s a living.” Said Death as Twilight walked up to Game as well as Adagio.

“Tunes is a Siren!?/Tunes is Oceana!?” Said Aria. Twilight saw Tune’s pendant as it was releasing pink mist instead of green.

“I’m shocked that Tunes is here & worst; she’s our composition.” Said Aria. Twilight saw Tunes finish singing as the mist returned to her pendant.

“How… how can Sweet Tune be a Siren?! There’s supposed to be 3 sent here?” Asked Twilight as Tune finish singing as the mist returned to her pendant.

Tunes’ HP has been fully restored.

“This pendant is the best present from my dad.” She said as she polished it. “Who wants an encore?”

“Encore! Encore!” Yelled the Game Players, the twins, Pinkie & Sonata.

“STOP!” Yelled Twilight as she examined Sweet Tune’s pendant.

“Twilight… you have to buy me dinner first.” She said which freaked out Twilight & some chuckles.

“Sorry!” She said with a blush expression. “How in the hay did you get that gem?” She asked Sweet Tunes.

“My dad gave it to me for my birthday and no, you’re not taking it.” She said as Adagio walked up to her “Hey Adagio.”

“Tunes… I didn’t think you go here…” She said as Tunes patted her on the shoulder.

“It’s cool. Let’s have some fun. Said Tunes as Twilight was a bit curious on what she wanted to say.

“What is it?” Asked Twilight.

“I’m gonna win this B.O.T.B. When I win; I want a Pinkie Promise that you take the Sirens back to your universe.” She as everyone except the Game Players gasped.

“Are you crazy!?” Said Rainbow. “They’re evil singing fish monsters!” She yelled.

“HEY!!” Yelled the Dazzlings.

“I don’t discriminate against others for their races. Remember our teachings from schools past?” Said Tunes as the girls paused & felt a bit guilty since they did learn they can’t discriminate others by the color of their skin, their race & their gender.

“But!” Said Twilight.

“Please! I’ll even compete without my pendant.” Sonata gasped in horror. “Hell, I’ll even force Lord Jackass to let you in. Trust me, he’ll never let you in. Even if you’re part of the band or their roadie.” She said as she remembers he was rotten to The Game Players last time.

“Oh… okay. I Pinkie Promise to take back IF… you win.” She said as Tunes gave a bow.

“Thank you &…”

“And?” Ask the girls.

Sang Tunes as The Game Players follow her, Pinkie & Sonata joined her as choir as she left the gym & the pink mist enter the Dazzlings’ pendants.

“She is *sniff* the greatest friend we met.” Said Sonata as she started to cry.

“She sure is!” Said Pinkie with tears as she & Sonata hugged each other as Twilight & Sunset wonder how Sweet Tunes 'really' got that pendant.

In the hallway

“So, what’s the plan for tomorrow?” Said Tunes.

“We’re gonna meet up in the 8-Bit Café.” Said Game Life. “Through careful imagination, we created Dungeon Doors in our MFs. We got the idea from Pokémon Sun & Moon and soon to be release Sword & Shield. We’ll not only set what kind of ID but also the difficulty.” He said.

“We’ll meet tonight.” Said Sharp. “Also tell your folks, we’re having a study group.”

See ya tonight.” Said Large.

Later that night, 6PM
The GPs made to their café, only to meet Heavy Cute, Strong Love & GQ. “What the hell are you 3 doing here?!” Said Dark Speed. Strong Love blew kisses at him as he shivered in disgust.

“Well handsome We complete our objectives, 100 Game Hours.” She said as Game, IQ & Death were shock.

“That’s impossible!” Said IQ.

“You all earned 8 hours yesterday. How the hell did you earn the other 92 hours?” Said Game Life as QB, Cute & Strong each pulled out a Nintendo Switch “Each Nintendo Switch had Super Mario Odyssey, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild & Disgaea 1 Complete.” GQ waved her hair.

“We simplify used my personal Private Space that slows down time. One minute in the real world is 10 minutes inside.” IQ & Death sucked air through their teeth.

“We have to learn that for our abilities.” Whispered Death.

“Yeah & the Reaper is not gonna enjoy it.” Said IQ. Game Life examined the games in the Switch & the games’ progresses.

“Hmm… Well, I can’t hack a Switch without getting everything erase & account deleted. Its legit, they’ve collected 100 hours of gameplay. They’re all in, they’re now… Game Players.” Said Game Life.

“Noobies.” Said Exo “New Tits from me.”

“Gave Dark Speed a noose because he has lost his will to live." He said as he slumped.

"This will be one weird night." Said Large as Sharp nodded.

Gambling Queen, Heavy Cute and Strong Love joined The Game Players
