//------------------------------// // Chapter 8 -In another point-view // Story: Anidate me please // by CaioCoia //------------------------------// Sunset Pov 1-hour earlier: After finally sitting in a place over the van, I kept myself watching the screen at the side of the Dazzlings sisters, both sisters and I watched calmly at the entrance of the restaurant while both Spike and Sonata got inside... One thing I was shocked was the fact Sonata knew the names of all the employees and the way she talks with them. She seemed like someone who has been at the restaurant a long time. "Wow, how does she know about that?" I asked while I heard a giggling comming from both sisters on my side. "Oh that's easy, Sonata knows all the names and the personal lives of many restaurants over this city, especially the ones who she visits a lot, like this one. But I have to admit, it's surprising he chooses this one over many taco restaurants. How did you know this one is one of her favorite places to go?" The elder sister glanced at me with her eyebrow raised and her tone showing a deep surprise, while asking me the reason behind the choice. "I don't know, Spike said the one who recommend this place was our brother Shining Armor. And..." At the moment I was talking suddenly the door of the van was knocked. Making both of us glance at it. "Who is it?" Adagio asked aloud while Aria looked at me while I can imagine a question over her mind. "No, I didn't bring anyone else, it's just me." I whispered making Aria nod and then look at the door. " It's from Tokyo Roll, we brought the order made by Adagio Dazzle. Delivery by app FastEating." The voice comming from the outside made both stomachs of Adagio and Aria grumble. Adagio looked at her cellphone, while she smuggling showed to her sister. "See? 20 minutes." Adagio opened the door, to talk with the deliver of the food. "Okay, I will invest a good money, they indeed proved their valor..." Aria said while she took her cellphone and tapped a few things. Then she glanced at me. "Maybe I should ask them to make some security protocols to the clients." I decided to ignore her, while I looked at the screen showing Sonata hugging someone. "Who is he?" I asked while I could see Aria looking at the screen, then she waved her hand. "Oh, that's just Chavo, he is an old friend of ours," Aria said while she watched with a grin on her face. Looking at the way Chavo made Sonata blush angrily. "He has a great sharping tongue. He even made me lose face once." I looked at Aria with a raised eyebrow, why does she look so happy about telling that? "What did he said to you?" I asked while she just laughed. "He said I'm a narcissist and a huge gorilla." Aria sounded so proud about the little insult he said to her, for me it wasn't surprising. "And I said to him he was just a starving boy..." Then she looked at me holding her laughter. "Then he looked at me and said... but for me, it can be fixed just by eating." The moment she said that I felt the burn the boy released on her, wow, that was sharp. Aria laughed aloud. "After that, we started to hang over the restaurant he worked at before this one. I think the manager of this taco restaurant was the owner of the last restaurant Chavo worked." Wow, I was surprised by how well Aria was having the thoughts of being insulted. Then suddenly when I looked around I found it was with 7 boxes of japanese food inside of it. "What the..." I said while Adagio sat down at the chair, while she opened a box of sushi. "Let's focus on eating and watch the screen, later we can discuss about this." Adagio took some of her sashimis and started eating piece by piece. "Great, I was starving." Aria decided to grab a box and proceeded to eat the food inside of it. "Man, I can't believe they came from other side of the city in less than 25 minutes." "I told you they were good." Adagio smiled while she looked at the screen... She then looked at me, and inclined her head indicating I should eat as well. I couldn't help it since they were eating and enjoying their meals, and we proceed to hear the most funny conversation in our lives. "we will have the especial of 10 tacos, and for dessert a sunday with cookies." "we don't have cookies anymore." "Oh oh, Chavo is doomed." Aria started to chuckle while Adagio tried to hold her giggling, while me I was confused about what they are talking about. . . . "ALRIGHT CHAVO, I CHANGE MY MIND, GIVE ME THE CAKE... WITH COOKIES." "WE DON'T HAVE COOKIES." The sound of the speaker of the van was loud enough to make us hear his screaming, while I and the girls who were inside of the van laughed so hard that we couldn't even breathe from the scene. "Hahahahah, my God, that was evil. How is someone looking so innocent as her could do something so evil to the boy?" I was taking time to take my breath back, while Sonata's sisters were laughing hard as well. It took a few more minutes for us to get ourselves recovered. After a few minutes, we found the boy who walked with the trails of tacos and sauces. "He looked calmer than before, did he do something with the food?" I couldn't help but ask in worry, but to my surprise, both of the girls just waved their hands. "Oh, don't worry, Chavo is a guy who forgives fast, he is not someone to take a grudge," Adagio said while she opened a can of soda while she was eating fried sushi. "Say Mr. Belly I said hi when you see him okay?" "Who?" I asked trying to understand the context. "Mr. Belly & Heavy, he is the owner of the taco restaurant and he is the father of Ñoño and adoptive father of Chavo." Aria said while she was taking another piece of sushi, but her answer gave me more questions than answers. "Who would be named Mr. Belly and Heavy? It would be like to invite the others to mess with your weight, but so he adopted Chavo and has a son who is working with him at the restaurant?" I asked while both girls glanced at me. Which to my surprise I heard Adagio sighing. "Listen Sunset, Chavo's story of childhood is something you would need to be ready to understand, because his past was sad... but the thing we must focus now is... Chavo is now better, he has a good family and that's enough to know." Adagio gave me a look like pleeding to just move on. "Alright..." I don't know about Chavo's past, but it seems something that the dazzlings take that as personal to them and wanted to him be happy the way he is. "Why me? I mean... you are a great popstar singer, you are famous, while I understand you somehow became my fan. I just don't understand how did you become my fan and since when... but mostly important, why me from all the people over Metube and the world." Aria glanced at me. "Your brother has a bit of problems of confidence." Oh that gorilla, she didn't say what I think she just said. "Well, wouldn't you be the same if you were in the same position as him? Someone who was stalked during weeks and then kidnapped at the day?" I glared at her and said coldly, but it seems she didn't even look at me. "Fair enough." She just shrugged and left me in my own thoughts, while I glanced at the screen one more time. "Well if you want to know the truth... you actually changed my life Spike. You made my dream become true..." My eyes went wide open, the way she was telling, it seems she was honestly speaking the truth. Which made me surprised and curious about how that happened. "I wanted to be a voice actress. I wanted to be the voice of a princess singing at the cartoons and movies.The moment I told my sisters about this dream, they actually weren't receptive, because truth to be told, neither of us knew how to be actress or even voice act. But I knew from the news about celebrities going on movies and make voices of the shows all the time. So I thought it was possible." I was surprised about her dream, while I heard a sad mumbling by my side, which were Sonata's sisters. "Maybe we should have been more supportive." Adagio looked at her sister and then to me. "Nah, we did our best, she did that by herself, so she must receive all the compliments because of that."Aria said while me was surprised about the next sentence. . . . "Their voices never were correct and they are too stupid and inexperience to admit they want to learn. And you are just a kid, just because you have a carrier on singing, doesn't mean you have the guts to do whatever you want on my studio. GET OUT OF HERE." I felt the tension inside of the van while I looked at Aria Blaze and Adagio Dazzle in their worse look, they were with bloodshot eyes. "He said WHAT?" Both of the girls looked they wanted to kill someone, the producer who screamed with Sonata, made them really angry. I gulped while I decided to listen to the rest of the conversation. And me having 14 years old just proved the fact they were telling the truth. But for me, nobody ever judged me in that way... And when I came back home, I did my best to do a fake smile and not cry in front of my sisters. At that momment I could see both of their eyes wide open in shock, while they looked at the screen wanting to hear the rest. "And since I was giving up 3 auditions, I was thinking to let my dream die..." "No way. Sonata you are better than that." I heard Aria shouting angrily at the screen, while I touched her shoulder. "Aria, stop, Sonata is telling how my brother helped her." I pointed out the fact she had said a few minutes ago. Adagio and Aria nodded while they kept sat down while we proceeded to keep eating. "And time is my ally, a dream will never die until I give the towel, and when you have a dream, your life has a meaning. So I will not give up my dream. Just give me one chance, and I will surprise you... And if you want to criticize me, please give me points on where I should improve, because I want to achieve my dreams, and I know I can do better... but I just don't know where. Until there I expect some of you have at least faith on me, because I want to surprise everyone who believes in me. Until the next time. " "WHAT? HER VOICE, IT SOUNDS LIKE SPIKE." I shouted surprised, someone like her copied perfectly the sound of the voice of my own brother. It was so perfect it even looked creepy. "I watched that video repetitively all night long. You don't know how such words gave me strength and made me believe in myself." Hearing that made me smile, it seems she needed a miracle, and hearing my brother gave the miracle she needed. Maybe that's why she wanted to meet him so badly. "The firstly thing I did at the morning...Was to take a long sleep because I was exhausted watching the video all night long." Adagio let it out a loud laugh, while me and Aria looked at her strangely. "Ah, so that's why she slept until 6 p.m of the next day. I thought she went so in her audition which makes her without strength during a whole day." . . . "Then after I received the answer I did quit the test." This time I watched a colletive of facepalm from the sudden decision, while I could see what it was crossing on their minds. "Sonata, just you would pull something crazy like that." Adagio mumbled while Aria groaned from knowing now about why Sonata's agent was face slamming his face on the table on that day. "Maybe she has a good reason for that." I tried to defend their sister, which made them look at me. "Well, if you want to learn the right place, ask the great people who know what they are doing, who would be better to ask where to act than the director and the ones who want a specific kind of actor or actress in one specific type of character?" Both of our eyes went wide open, and Adagio's mouth the same as Aria dropped while they took a momment of silence. "Well, that's a reasonable idea." Adagio said while she tapped her chin with her finger while thinking about the idea being actually a good one. "See?" I smiled while both of sisters nodded to each and other and decided to keep watching the screen. "And I have to say, it was a harsh process to make, practice, practice, and more practice, voice skills, learn ways to remember scripts, knowing improvisation lines, training stamina to say the same line, over and over again but with different kind of voices, learn how to control all the fiber of your own voice. There was times I was even without voice... I even went on medic 3 times." My eyes went wide open, while both sisters looked at each and other in understatement. "Yeah, I actually never saw Sonata focusing in our songs more than 2 times, but when it comes about the voice acting course, she gave it all of herself on it. I think if she focused on singing the same way she did that, we could have been even more famous. Heck. I would actually would love to be a chorus background while she was the lead singer." Aria said, while I could see a glimpse of pride coming from her tone of voice. This family is actually a bit unorthodox but a good family in my book. "I watched all your videos. And noticed step by step, I wasn't the only one who was improving. I have the privilege to witness your channel getting follower after follower." "Wow, so she is one of the veterans. It's interesting to know this." I said aloud, which both girls looked at me. "What? Every follower was important to Spike, specially the ones who remained from the start. When he achieved 1 thousand followers, me and my sister passed an entire day at school wearing a T-shirt saying our brother is famous while their is not." Both girls tried to both of their laughs, but failed at the same moment. I know I supposed to be ashamed, but come on, that day was special to Spike so Twilight and I were proud of him, heck, even our brother was wearing the T-shirt at work. "Well Sunset, while I can understand your support, it would be really cringy to do that to someone to your family, me and Aria would never try something cringy like that." Adagio gave me a smug smile but it dropped from the next audio from the screen. "Yeah, from the start I went into the low papers, like a chorus singer which went to a soap dingle and after that I went to be a npc village from a game for cellphone, it wasn't great papers, but they were my start... I remember when I showed the soap commercial to my sisters. They looked really proud of me, they even went and bought 2 months of the said soap to our mansion." "Oh look, the pot calling kettle black." I said while Adagio blushed angrily. "Shut up, it's not our fault if the soap was actually great to clean our skin and even give a good smell even if you wash your hair with it." Adagio looked away while I looked at Aria. "Is that the only reason you bought the soap?" I raised my eyebrow, while Aria shook her head while Adagio blushed even more. I giggled, while we decided to keep watching the screen. While I keep eating one of the boxes of japanese food. Then Sonata started talking about her audition after knowing the Power Ponies show would be on air and they would need voices for their characters. Which I'm kinda surprised, she really wanted to be at least one of the cast, and making a bold move to try all voices. Then she said the name of the character she wanted most. And the name of a project my eyes opened wide open in shock. "Protocol." "Fylling Alone" "OH SNAP." I cried out loud, making both sisters look at me in surprise. "This is the project my brother did to raise funds to recover his bedroom, after a damaged wires created a fire at our house." "Really?" Both Adagio and Aria asked while feeling a bit sad about what happened to our house, but that just made sense... Someone like Sonata who watched Spike's video since from the beginning. And then wanting to be the cast of Power Ponies? She really did helped Spike in her own way. "I was devastated of what happened to your house, and then you showed a story board about Filly Second in finding the truth about the project Alone... Humdrum would be devastated the moment he know... Filly Second didn't think twice, she went straight to Masked Matter Horn and gave a warning to her, knowing the imminent problems the future would happen, and while Masked Ignored her, Filly screamed in rage one of the most amazing speeches I ever heard in my own life. I wanted to be her... well... actually I'm her." "Oh so she received the paper she wanted most, that's great to hear." I said while Aria smiled proudly and Adagio finished another box of food. "I have to spend a night in the house of a crazy girl who has pink hair which she strangely accepted my way to study voices while I was with her at her work, at her bathroom, at her house, at her bedroom, and at her couch..." While Aria and Adagio had their mouth opened in shock, I facepalmed myself. "Pinkie Pie, of course." I said aloud while receiving a glance from the girls by my side. "It's a friend of mine, so Sonata learned how to make the character's voice based on my friend. That's great to know." "I wanted so much to help you, that the moment I took the paper. I decided to help the kick-starter, I even donated 5000 dollars. " Hearing that made my mouth drop in shock, while on the next second, I whistled. "Wow, she really helped him..." I said smiling, but then something took my eyes, Spike looked shocked... but not kind of shocked, but a terrified and with a thought he was not believing he was seeing. "Wait... You was the one who donated 5 k? Does that mean?" "Yep? Well Spike, I'm soooooooooooo sorry about what my sisters did to you and to your sisters, I didn't know they would be trying that. I'm sorry, so sorry, with a piece of Sunday and with Chantilly over the top and with a cherry over the top as well?" "FillySecondSD?" The moment Spike said that, my eyes looked wide open. Isn't that the name of one of Spike's adms of Metube? "Hehehe, surprise..." Sonata looked so sheepishly and nervous about this revelation. "OH MY GOD." I shouted aloud, making both girls look at me. "She is one of the adm of Metube Spike has, and now everything makes sense."
