Sonata Time

by The Forgotten Siren


Bully

BEEP BEEP

It was Tuesday and Sonata jumped out of bed ready to start the day. Yesterday she went to school to learn and make new friends. At first she didn’t do so well. In fact she did terrible and felt bad. But when she was about to just give up and throw in the towel. Sunset was there for her like nobody else was. Sunset made everything better and even made her feel like she could be somebody. As Sonata got ready she walked out of her room only to see Aria coming out of the bathroom with what looked like a silver cucumber.

‘’HI Aria why do you have a silver cucumber in the bathroom?’‘ Sonata asked confused.

‘’WHAT!?..umm this isn’t a cucumber stupid. It’s umm..a...Hey isn’t today Taco Tuesday?’‘ Aria said as she jumped and hid the toy behind her back.

‘’Oh no I almost forgot TACOS!! YAY! Ok bye Aria. Oh and can I have some of that cucumber when I get back?’‘ Sonata said as she remembered what today was and began walking out the door.

‘’*sighs* that was close. Well come on Shining Armor time to put you up.’‘ Aria said going into her room.

As Sonata was walking to school she passed three teenagers who also where walking to school.

‘’Hey isn’t that the girl who tried to take over our school?’‘ Hoop asked.

‘’Huh why yes it is. But they lost their powers though. Besides she is way to stupid anyway. She couldn’t even take over a rock farm.’‘ Dumb-Bell Replied laughing.

‘’Yeah she is in my math class. She thought an acute angle was a angle with a pink bow.’‘ Score said.

‘’HAHA that is stupid. Everyone knows a cute angel is..umm..an angel hahaha’‘ Hoop said.

Dumb-Bell just face palmed and had a brilliant idea. They walked up to her with smiles on their faces.

‘’Hey new girl!’‘ Dumb-Bell yelled out.

Sonata looked behind her and saw the three boys coming her way. She smiled and waved as they got to her.

‘’Hey you’re the new girl right? Listen we wanted to welcome you. And tell you that as new girl you have to wear this on your back. It’s school rules.’‘ Dumb-Bell said as he handed her a paper reading ‘’throw dirt at me’‘

‘’Oh really? Well I don’t want to make Principle Celestia mad and break the rules. But why do I want dirt thrown at me?’‘ Sonata asked with a concerned look.

‘’No not real dirt it’s..a metaphor meaning to cheer you on to have a great day.’‘ Dumb-Bell replied with a smirk.

‘’HAHA yeah a meta..um what he said.’‘ Hoop added.

‘’Oh ok good. I need a lot of dirt today then. Math class is really tricky.’‘ Sonata said putting the paper on her back with a smile.

The boys then walked with her to school before heading their own way. Sonata said bye to her new friends as she walk up the stairs. She then felt a smack on the back of her head. As soon as she turned around she got smacked again by on coming dirt.

‘’Ow why did you do that for?’‘ Sonata asked whipping the dirt off her face.

‘’Hehehe because you have a sign on your back miss.’‘ Rover said with a snark.

‘’Your not suppose to throw dirt at me. Your suppose to cheer for me.’‘ Sonata explained.

‘’well hip hip HOORAY!!’‘ Spot said throwing a chunk of dirt at Sonata.

‘’hahah yes hooray hahaha. This is your cheer girly.’‘ Fido said throwing more dirt.

‘’STOP!!’‘ Sonata begged.

Suddenly Sunset Shimmer came through the door. She looked at Sonata being hit with dirt and then glared at the Three Diamond Ds. As soon as Rover looked up and saw Sunset glaring him. He dropped the dirt in his hands and told the other two to stop.

‘’Mind telling me whats going on boys?’‘ Sunset demanded.

‘’Oh umm..nothing we..umm..where just leaving. Lets go boys.’‘ Rover said knowing not to mess with Sunset or any of the main six due to believing she and the others can summon a rainbow and whip them out.

Sunset then went down and help clean her friend off. As she did she saw the paper on her back and then took it off.

‘’Sonata are you ok? Also who put this on your back?’‘ Sunset asked.

‘’I’m ok, thanks Shimmie. Some boys gave it to me to wear. Saying dirt was a mega four for cheers. I guess those three didn’t understand.’‘ Sonata said as she smiled at Sunset.

‘’Firstly Sonata it’s metaphor. Second dirt doesn’t mean cheering. Sonata what you came across where bullies.’‘ Sunset said whipping dirt off Sonata’s face.

‘’Bullies? But they didn’t look like a bull to me. Not even a Minotaur.’‘ Sonata said confused.

‘’No Sonata a ‘’bully’‘ is someone who picks on you for their own amusement. Kind of what you and I where before we became good. We wanted something and didn’t care who got hurt.’‘ Sunset said as they went to first period.

Sonata had a shocked looked on her face as she heard what a bully was. She never in her existence thought of her or the other two as bullies. She didn’t even think what she did was hurting anyone. Sonata always just thought that what she did didn’t harm anyone involved. Adagio even told her that no one ever gets hurt. Sonata snapped out of her trance as soon as the teacher put a homework paper on her desk. Sonata looked at the sheet not knowing a single thing. She didn’t pay attention to what was going on. Sonata then broke out into a sweat as she had no idea what to do.

‘’It’s ok Sonata. Pinkie Pie can help you with this. You know longer have to be panic’‘ Sunset said putting her hand on Sonata’s shoulder to comfort her.

‘’O right I forgot. Thanks Shimmie teehee.’‘ Sonata said as she looked at her friend.

Sonata looked back at her paper and remember something. What she said to Sunset back in Battle of the Bands to Sunset. She felt really bad about it and all those she hurt when she was evil. She was once again snapped back to reality by the bell. She and Sunset went to their lockers to get their instruments.

‘’Shimmie? Was I really a bully?’‘ Sonata asked.

‘’Yes you and the other two where. So was I until I discovered friendship. Please don’t worry about it to much ok? You are a new you and today is Taco Tuesday. Your favorite remember?’‘ Sunset said with a smile.

‘’Yes I can’t wait hehe.’‘ Sonata said with a big smile. Sunset as soon as Sunset turned her back she frowned.

It was soon lunch time and Sonata and her new friends where gathered around their table enjoying tacos. All but Sonata who haven’t touched hers.

‘’Sonata you ok?’‘ Sunset asked s she swallowed.

‘’yes..I mean no.’‘ Sonata said.

‘’Oh no is everything ok? Are you sick?’‘ Fluttershy said eating her salad.

‘’You been acting funny all day Sonata. And not the good funny, but the bad funny. You even drew a frownie face in art class.’‘ Pinkie Pie said.

‘’Well the thing is..I thought about this all day. And I want to say I am sorry. I really truely am sorry.’‘ Sonata said with sad teary eyes.

‘’Hey know it’s ok Sugarcube. It’s all behind us.’‘ Applejack said patting her left shoulder.

‘’Yes darling. You don’t need to worry about that no more. You a new beautiful you.’‘ Rarity said patting her right shoulder.

‘’Yeah Sonata we are all frie..’‘ Sunset was cut off

‘’I don’t forgive you. Sorry but I still don’t trust her’‘ Rainbow Dash said.

‘’Rainbow she ain’t evil no more. Stop makin a mountain outta mole hill.’‘ Applejack snapped.

‘’Listen you guys can for give her if you want. I’m not’‘ Rainbow said getting up from the table.

‘’Don’t worry Sonata it took a couple of days for her to forgive me.’‘ Sunset said comforting her friend.

‘’Yeah Rainbow is just stuburn as a mule in heat’‘ Applejack said.

‘’CHEER UP HUGS!!’‘ Pinkie Pie said giving Sonata a get well hug.

‘’Sonata enjoyed Pinkie and everyone’s comforting her. She felt a warm tingle in her heart. The then smiled and thanked everyone before eating her beloved tacos.
The days past as Sonata and friends went to the library to help her with her homework.

Ok lets work on your math first. Pinkie.’‘ Sunset said as she looked at Pinkie.

‘’Ok Sonata math is fun becuase thee are sooo many numbers and they make more number so it’s like a party where EVERYONE is invited even one and zero are invited some times. But they are kinda emo and like to be by them..’‘ Pinkie was cut off

‘’Pinkie I think she got how numbers work’‘ Applejack said drinking an apple soda.

After about fifteen minutes of studying how to do fractions. Sonata still didn’t get it.

‘’Maybe I’m not cut out for math’‘ Sonata said frowning.

‘’Darling you just need to find a way that suits you. I for one enjoy learning through fashion. Rarity said with grace.

‘’Rarity how is that gonna teach er anythin?’‘ Applejack said.

‘’Oh then please by all means Applejack tel us how do you learn? ‘Rarity replied.

‘’I GOT IT!!!’‘ Pinkie Screamed and ran out the door.

‘’Oh please tell me she isn’t.’‘ Applejack said concern.

Sunset and Sonata looked confused as Pinkie came back wearing what looked like something Eminem would wear.
‘’Yo Son you like music?’‘ Pinkie asked with a grill.

‘’Yes I love music why?’‘ sonata asked smiling at how cool her friend looked.

Suddenly Pinkie Pie busted some mad rhythms. Sonata looked and enjoyed every minute of it. As her other friends looked on in awe at how silly she was.

‘’ok Did you get it?’‘ Pinkie asked?

‘’ OH MY GOSH yes. I understand now. I have to change the denominator.’‘ Sonata said with a smile

‘’Seriously sugarcube? You got all that through a rap son?’‘ Applejack asked.

‘’I barely heard a word she said. Rap is so uncouth. I prefer classical. Rarity said.

‘’Yeah it al make sense now. Yeah I’m ot stupid’‘ Sonata said with a smile.

‘’You where never stupid to begin with Sonata’‘ Sunset said.

‘’Thanks Shimmie.’‘ Sonata said.

‘’Hey I’ll be right back ok. I am gonna talk to Rainbow Dash.’‘Sunset said.

‘’ok Sugarcube We’ll stay here n help Sonata with her homework.’‘ Applejack Said as she crushed her can.

Sunset then walked out of the library and went to the football field to see Rainbow Dash. As she got there she saw her practicing with some of the other players. She then walked up to her.

‘’Hey Rainbow’‘ Sunset said.

‘’High Sunset. Listen if it’s about her I don’t want to talk about it.’‘ Rainbow Said while throwing a football to a teammate.

‘’Ok then just listen. She was evil but not anymore. Beside she wasn’t even that evil like the other two. She was a follower. If you remember I to was evil. But look at us now.’‘ Sunset said sitting down on the bench.

‘’Yeah but that was different though. You made us stop being friends. They made us and the entire school fight. We even wanted to kill each other.’‘ Rainbow Dash remarked as she caught the oncoming football.

As Rainbow and Sunset where talking Sonata and the others came to the field. Sonata went to get some water.

‘’Hey Dumb-Bell there that girl.’‘ Scored told Dumb-Bell.

‘’Hehe yeah it’s sonata DUMB haha. I got an idea. Hoop go that way.’‘ Dumb-Bell said.

‘’Ok hahaha’‘ said.

As Hoop was far enough Dunb-Bell threw the football. Fluttershy then yelled to Sonata to watch out. As soon as Sonata turn her head, the football hit her right across the eye. Dumb-Bell and the others where laughing at this while the others rushed to Sonata’s aid. Sonata was crying as her friends gathered around trying to comfor her.

‘’HAHA NICE EYE SONATA DUMB HAHAHA’‘ Dumb-Bell mock.

‘’Yeah haha maybe you should...umm...maybe catch it next time haha’‘ Hoop remarked.

As soon as Sunset clenched her fist and stood up to punch them. A football came out of no where and slammed right into Hoop’s face. Hoop fell to the ground covering his nose. As everyone looked to see where the ball came from.

‘’Dumb-Bell you did that on purpose. Hoop is stupid but that idiot can can a ball with his mouth.’‘ Rainbow Said enraged.

‘’Hey this doesn’t concern you Rainbow Crash.’‘ Dumb-Bell said.

‘’When it’s my friends you bet your ass it does got me.’‘ Rainbow said throwing the ball so fast Dumb-Bell couldn’t react in time and got hit in the got.

Rainbow Dash the walked over to Sonata. Sonata looked up and saw Rainbow standing above her.

‘’*sniff* thank..you’‘ Sonata said.

‘’Don’t mention it. Nobody hurts my friends and gets away with it.’‘ Rainbow said as she smiled helping Sonata to her feet.

Sonata then smiled and hugged Rainbow in which she returned it.

‘’So Adagio came up with any plains yet? I’m tired and we are getting close to the end of the month. Also why did you let Sonata go to school anyway?’‘ Aria asked.

‘’First NO I haven’t came up with a stupid plain. Mostly because we are frikin human. We have no powers and stuck in the God forsaken waste of a planet. And soon our lights will go out and we only have enpugh food to last this week. Which means only one meal a day. Second I let that pea brain in school so she wouldn’t distract me.’‘ Adagio stated.

‘’Mmm..listen Adagio. We known each other for a long time. I can tell when your lying. Yeah Sonata is an idiot. But..she is our special idiot. God that sounded better in my head.’‘ Aria said.

‘’....Ok I just don’t want her to be here to be miserable. If you tel her I will kill you got it?’‘ Adagio said.

Before Aria answered Sonata walked in. She placed her book bag on the rack as she smiled.

‘’Sonata...What happened to your eye?’‘ Adagio asked.

‘’Oh well a bully hit me in the eye with a football. But don’t worry my friends help me.’‘ Sonata said going to her room.

‘’You thinking what I’m thinking?’‘ Adagio asked looking at Aria with a cold look.

‘’yeah.’‘ Aria said with the same cold look.
