“This is, like, one of the worst ideas you’ve gone along with, Sonata.” Aria complained and lazily lounged at one of the tables at the agreed meeting cafe. Sonata happily looked around and marveled at the fact that they actually sold cow meat, her hands immediately going to her mouth in awe before she processed what Aria had said.
“I dunno, I think it’s a really good idea. After all, we haven’t tried being good people before.” Sonata said innocently. Adagio, who was leaning on the wall near the table, scoffed and gave Sonata an annoyed look.
“There’s a reason for that.” She grumbled. Before Sonata could question the reasoning Sunset Shimmer, Applejack, and Fluttershy walked through the door. Sunset waved, earning a smile from Sonata and a smirk from Adagio. The trio sat at the same table Aria was at. Applejack eyed the purple haired girl inquisitively.
“So,” Sunset chirped, “I’m happy that you’re all here. Now, let’s skip the formalities and get on with this. You guys, the Dazzlings, need to change. Principle Celestia was kind enough to let you stay at CHS but only under one condition; You have to clean up your act real quick.” Sonata and Adagio nodded eagerly, waiting for her to go on. Applejack spoke up before.
“It’s gonna be mighty difficult for all of us to help each of you at once so on the way here we decided that we’d pair up. Now, Sonata, since you and Sunset are the only ones really excited about this it might as well be a given that you two are together.” She said, an authoritative ring to her western accent, “Adagio, you seems to have calmed down a bit since we last saw you ,but I reckon you’re still touch. A gentler touch might help you out and that’s why you’re going with Fluttershy. Be careful, she may seem harmless, but I’ve seen her stand up to a giant dog before.”
“Alright, that means Aria’s with you, right?” Adagio asked in an unusually interested tone. Applejack nodded.
“Eeyup, she’ll be paying off her debt at the farm. Don’t worry, we won’t work you too hard.” Applejack tried to joke, much to Aria’s distaste.
“So, why do I have to pay off the debt? If I recall correctly it was Adagio’s idea in the first place.” The purple haired siren growled and crossed her arms.
“Actually, Adagio will help out at the shelter.” Fluttershy said quietly and played with the ends of her hair. Adagio frowned and mumbled profanities under her breath.
“Oh, what will I get to do?” Sonata asked enthusiastically.
“You’ll be helping me at the school.” Sunset informed with a wide smile. Sonata cooed happily.
“That sounds like a lot of fun!” She beamed and clapped her hands. Aria rolled her eyes and leaned back.
“Let’s just get this over with.” She grunted with an angry tone. “It’s not like I can refuse the offer of a home and food.” Everyone nodded in agreement and went with their respective partner. All six of them could tell that the walk to the houses would be a painfully uncomfortable.
