One morning, Spike was in the living room reading a comic book, until Twilight came in, "You're still reading that?"
"Of course. This new issue of Mare Do Well is so amazing." Spike said.
"What is so special about that comic?" his sister inquired.
"It's about a man who lives in a crime infested city. Because of the cities constant crime wave he lost his family at a young age and watched them murdered in the process."
"Sounds gorey." Twilight didn't like the sound of it.
"Well, it gets better. As the boy ages into a man he realizes that the crime wave only gets worse. So he decides to take matters into his own hands and becomes a vigilante to take on crime."
"Shouldn't that be polices work?" Twilight inquired.
"In this world, the police are near useless to deal with certain crime factors. And the police itself is also nearly run by the mob from behind the scenes. So Mare Do Well ignores the law and delivers his own brand of justice." Spike smirked.
"Sounds like quite a series." Twilight admitted.
"It is." Spike confirmed.
Suddenly they heard the buzzer, and Twilight answered it, "Yes?"
"It's us, Twilight." Puck's voice came.
"Come on up." she answered.
"Wonder what Puck wants?" Spike wondered, knowing he hadn't heard word from him or the rest of his boys.
Soon enough Puck, Pipsqueak, and Koda entered, "Hey, Spike." Pip greeted him.
"Hey, guys what's up?" Spike asked.
"Twistin' wanted to know if you were doing anything." Koda said.
"Well, nothing right now."
"In that case he wants us to meet him at Taco Shack." Puck said.
"All of us?" Spike inquired.
"Uh-huh." Pip confirmed.
"He said he wanted us to meet his girlfriend, and her pals there." Koda explained.
"Oh, so we're finally going to meet this girl he's told us about, huh?"
"Yeah, so you coming?" Puck asked.
"Sure thing," Spike went to his room to retrieve his wallet and cellphone, "I'll see you later, Twilight."
"Have fun." she bid them farewell.
Later on the four arrived at the take out join Taco Shack to see Featherweight, Twistin', and Dante waiting, "There you guys are. We were waiting." Twistin' said.
"Sorry we took so long," Spike began, "Pip saw Vice Principal Luna and wanted to go talk to her."
"I merely wanted to ask her how she was doing." Pipsqueak protested.
"Sure." Koda called his bluff.
"So, where's this girlfriend of yours?" Spike asked his dance mentor.
"Right inside waiting." Twistin' said, as he showed his boys inside.
Spike and the boys looked around seeing multiple people wondering where this girlfriend of his was. Suddenly a female voice spoke up, "Twistin', there you are!"
They looked over and saw a girl with orange and yellow poofy hair approach, "Hey babe, how's it going?" Twistin' greeted the girl, as they kissed.
The boys were surprised at their display, until the older boy spoke up, "Guys, meet Adagio Dazzle; my lady."
"A pleasure to meet you, boys." Adagio greeted them.
"Likewise." Spike replied, not wanting to be rude.
"So where are we sitting?" Twistin' asked.
"Over there." Adagio motioned to a table around the back occupied by two more girls.
"Come on my brothers." Twistin' said as they walked over to the table to see the two girls occupying it. One girl's hair was colored both aquamarine and purple while done up in pigtails. The second one's hair was colored both cerulean and persian blue while done up in a ponytail. A common feat of all three girls was they each wore a red gemstone around their necks.
"Hey, girls. Twistin' made it like I said he would." Adagio told the two.
"About time." the pigtailed girl said.
The pony-tailed girl saw the younger boys, and spoke in fascination, "Ooh, who're these guys?"
"These are my boys, Puck, Featherweight, Pipsqueak, Koda, Dante, and my main bud Spike." Twistin' introduced them.
"Boys, meet my friends, Aria Blaze and Sonata Dusk." Adagio introduced them.
"Hiya." Sonata smiled brightly.
"Sup?" Aria asked.
"Nice to meet you girls." Pip greeted them.
"Pretty necklaces." Featherweight said, as he looked at the three gemstones.
"Thanks, they're a symbol of our friendship." Adagio answered.
"Really?" Dante asked.
"Yeah," Sonata answered, "We started wearing these after we became a musical trio."
"Musical trio?" Spike asked.
"That's right," Aria replied, "The three of us are known as the Dazzlings when we sing together."
"Trust me, these three can sing like goddesses." Twistin' said.
"Maybe you can enlighten us with that?" Spike desired to hear how they sounded.
"Maybe later, right now it's Taco time!" Sonata cheered.
"Right, so let me get them." Twistin' offered.
"I'll come with." Adagio offered as well, as they went to make an order.
When they came back, they were all enjoying some tacos, "So good." Sonata beamed.
Adagio turned to Spike, "So, Spike, Twistin's told me about what a talented dancer you are."
"Well, I couldn't call myself talented." he answered in modesty.
"What'd I tell ya, Adagio?" Twistin' asked, "So modest. I love this guy!" he laughed.
"I can see it." Adagio chuckled.
"So how did you guys meet?" Dante asked the two.
"Well, originally we met about two weeks ago at a cafe in town." Twistin' began.
"Me and the girls were performing a gig there." Adagio added.
"After their performance, I ran into Adagio on my way to the restroom. We started talking about how I liked the way she sounded, and one thing led to another."
"Now we're dating." Adagio finished.
"I wasn't so sure it was gonna last," Aria began, "After all the last guy Adagio dated..."
"Aria!" Adagio glared at her friend, who decided to shut it.
Dante noticed how Sonata was eating away at her tacos. Sonata noticed this spoke up, "What? Is something on my face?"
"Besides your face." Aria answered, only for Sonata to scowl at her joke.
"It's nothing," Dante answered, "It's just I'm amazed you can eat that many tacos, and you still retain your figure."
Sonata blushed upon hearing that and smiled, "Oh, you've noticed? Well, I do have quite the catching figure, don't I?" she winked. Dante turned around not wanting her to see his blush.
"Please," Aria butted in, "Out of all our figures, yours is the worse."
"Yours is the worse!" Sonata retorted.
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah!"
"Girls!" Adagio broke them up, "I'm sorry for their behavior, boys. They can be quite idiots sometimes."
"Hey, we've been called idiots ourselves on more than one occasion." Featherweight explained.
"Thanks, Featherweight, they needed to hear that!" Puck said sarcastically.
Adagio, Sonata, and Aria giggled, as Adagio spoke, "Twistin' your boys are funny."
"Yeah. Very funny." Aria admitted.
"I know. These chuckleheads always know how to make me laugh." Twistin' said as he held Puck and Featherweight in a headlock.
As they continued eating, Koda would take the occasional glance at Aria, and when she'd notice he quickly look away. Koda thought to himself, 'This girl is somewhat scary, and yet I find that side of her attractive.'
Aria thought to herself, 'Why is that guy looking at me so much? Don't tell me he's into me. I mean how can he be? Every guy I tried to meet ended up ditching me or dumping me. Whatever, I should just ignore it.' she finished, but took a glance at Koda.
After lunch, they were outside, "So what now?" Sonata asked.
"Well, you could give us a little performance we asked for." Puck said.
"Agreed, but let's go someplace else." Adagio suggested.
"Yeah, like our place." Aria added.
"Come on!" Sonata said, as she dragged Dante with her, as the boy held in a blush.
They started walking, while Aria noticed Koda was trying to keep some distance between her. Aria rolled her eyes, "If you wanna walk closer to me, be my guest."
"Huh?" he asked.
"I can tell ya got a thing for me." she answered.
"What, I do not..." Aria cut him off.
"Look, I don't know why and I'm not sure I wanna know, but I know you got a thing for me."
Koda looked embarrassed, "You're right. I do."
"But why?" Aria asked.
"I don't know, I guess I like a girl who's spirited and sassy. Plus who isn't afraid to speak her mind." he admitted.
Aria was taken aback by his words, "Wait, you think I'm spirited and sassy?"
"Uh-huh."
Aria blushed, "Well, thanks."
"And to tell you the truth, I've never been able to talk to a girl the way I've been talking to you. I'm kinda a shy guy around girls."
"I could tell." she noted.
"But you I have this feeling like I don't need to be so shy around you. So thanks." Koda said.
Aria blushed a bit more, "Don't mention it." she said, before pulling Koda closer so they were walking together.
Later, the group was at the girls apartment, "So you three just live here?" Dante asked.
"Yeah, our parents live overseas on business." Sonata explained.
"But since they realized how much we loved it here they decided to allow us to live here and pay our rent." Aria added.
"Provided we also find our own way of making a living." Adagio added.
"Hence their musical talents." Twistin' said.
"Yes, we perform at local cafes and hang outs to earn a good fee." Adagio explained.
"Sounds like a good living." Puck said.
"So about that performance?" Spike asked.
"Right, let us select a number." Adagio said, as the three girls huddle to discuss.
Soon they broke, as Sonata went to a rack of CD's containing music and inserted it into a stereo. When the music began, the three began to sing.
As they sang, Twistin' smiled, while the boys were enamored by the sounds of their voices. Twistin' was in fact right about their voices sounding like the lure of a siren. As the three girls sang, Adagio flirted with Twistin', while Aria danced around Koda, and Sonata danced around Dante.
Spike, Puck, and Featherweight sighed in relief knowing if their own girls saw them getting flirted with by other girls would definitely be T.O'd. Dante couldn't' help but enjoy it along with Koda.
When the girls finished, they took a bow, and the boys applauded, "That was amazing." Koda gasped.
"You girls got skills." Dante added.
"Thanks, we try." Sonata smiled.
Eventually the boys were taking their leave, as Koda spoke to Aria, "Um, Aria, any chance I can call you sometime? You know in case you wanna hang out. Just the two of us?"
Aria gave him a look which made him nervous, until he saw her smile and write her number down on a slip of paper, "You can."
"Thanks." he smiled, before heading off.
Dante turned to Sonata, "So, Sonata, any chance you and I can get together as well?"
"Huh?"
"I... wanna get to know more about you." he explained, while looking sheepishly.
Sonata's smile brightened, "You mean it?" he nodded, and suddenly found himself embraced by the girl, "Well, I want to get to know you too."
"You do?"
"For realsies." she smiled, and Dante smiled back. Spike and Twistin's chuckled to themselves before they took their leave.
As the two walked back for their homes, Spike spoke, "You were right, Twistin'. That Adagio is a doll."
"Uh-huh. Guy's like us are lucky to find girls in our lives." Twistin' said.
"No denying that," Spike agreed, as he thought of Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack, "But I tell ya this is has been one cool summer vacation."
"And it's not over yet." Twistin' replied, as the two continued to walk on.
