The Siren Song: Razzle Dazzle

by Shadowmane PX-41


A Duel On Lyrican Soil (Part 2)

The Mane 6 all charged for The Blasters' Chimera with looks of confidence on their face. They believed that by taking down this beast, The Blasters would lose their powers once and for all. However, they saw how large the beast was as they got closer and closer to it. It was twice as large than anything they'd ever fought in the past and had a black aura. As they got closer, the girls could see Fortissimo, Allegro and Orchestral merely reclining on the heads of the Chimera.

The Chimera roared loudly, then tried to use its' almighty claws to take the Mane 6 out of the sky. Every time it slashed at the sky, it shot a number of razor sharp waves of red energy at Twilight and her friends. It could see that Twilight and her friends were much smaller than the slashes so it thought that it would secure a devastating hit.

"This is unbelievable..." Twilight said as she marvelled at how powerful the beast was. She was looking at a combination of the pure power of Fortissimo, Allegro and Orchestral. If this was how powerful a Siren could truly get, she was quite intrigued to see where they'd go and what they'd do with this new power. "And here I thought The Dazzlings were powerful... But this, this is something else..."

"Focus, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash said, taking control of the whole orb. It seemed that now they were in their own forcefield, having one pony move would cause all the other ponies to move with them. Rainbow Dash took control so that they could narrowly evade the Chimera's claw, rapidly descending on top of the three of them. "You almost caused us to get splattered!"

"Well, excuse me, Rainbow Dash!" Twilight said back, a little aggravated that Rainbow Dash had made her lose her train of thought. "I'm simply admiring how powerful this beast is, nothing more, nothing less."

"Well, by doin' so, ya could have let us get hurt!" Applejack said, lurching forwards so that they just flew over the heads of Fortissimo and Allegro, who were lounging on sunbeds made of the Chimera's black aura.

"So?! You've got Fluttershy to back you up, Applejack!" Twilight said, stating the one fact that Applejack was finally starting to ignore. She didn't know it, but she was starting to show some tension. "Why do you suddenly care about everyone's health when you have a pony who does nothing but heal us?!"

"I've hurt Allegro, you just haven't seen it yet!" Fluttershy said, using her rage to stomp the bottom of the forcefield, causing it to smash into the Chimera's back, causing it to feel some pain. "I'm not just a sappy pony used to hep others! I'm one of six ponies who can strike down evil when the time's called for! Or do you not care about me anymore?"

"Fluttershy! Now's not the time to confuse our tasks here!" Rarity said, using a part of her hatred to slap Fluttershy with a spectral aura. "Now, if you'd kindly listen to us, we have a Chimera to defeat here!"

"So, that's how you see me, is it?!" Fluttershy said, using her pent up fury to go straight for Rarity's face. The sheer impact, caused the sphere to stop in midair. "Well, if that's true, then maybe you should do this yourself!"

"That's not why we're called the Spirits of Harmony, Fluttershy! You know this better than anyone!" Applejack said, still consumed by her fury. "Our goal is to uphold the safety of Equestria, utilizing the magic handed down to us by the Elements of Harmony!"

"And what harmony does that beckon if you're yelling at some harmless weakling?!" Rarity said, knocking Applejack out of Fluttershy's way with a simple swish of her hoof. "I suppose that if that's the way our friendship is heading, now would be a most exemplary time to END that friendship!"

The six ponies had completely stopped their travel and were now shouting obscenities back and forth. Their many different insults and physical attacks had made them completely furious. Even Twilight had been consumed by hatred, seeing as no-one was listening to her.

Fortissimo, Allegro and Orchestral all got up from their spectral sunbeds and watched as the rainbow-coloured sphere now glowed black instead of the seven colours of the rainbow. The Blasters could all hear the Mane 6's fury and found the perfect moment to benefit from it.

They held their Furen Pendants up towards the now black orb of magic and smiled sadistically when they saw the events happen. The black orb shot out a violent spiral of rainbow energy, which instantly flew towards The Blasters with great velocity and crashed onto their pendants just as quickly.

"Yes, Spirits of Harmony..." Fortissimo said as the three Sirens were beginning to be pushed backwards by the massive deluge of Rainbow Power, flying into their red pendants and amplifying their power to a phenomenal extent. "Fight... Hate each other... And feed us all of your unfathomable power!"

"I can already feel myself reaching new levels of power..." Allegro said as his hair now had rainbow streaks in it. He was now utilizing Rainbow Power himself, as were his fellow Blasters. "These Spirits of Harmony are far more beneficial then we could have ever imagined..."

"Which almost makes me wonder why my little sister couldn't have used the power of THESE Spirits of Harmony, instead of the ones from the Human World..." Orchestral said, wondering why Sonata couldn't have taken power from the Equestria Mane 6 instead of the Humane 5. "Oh well, it's her loss."

Once The Blasters had finished feeding, they put their hands on the heads of the Chimera. Once they did this, rainbow streaks ran down its' skin and it took a more physical form. It had claws made out of pure Furen crystal and was garbed in spectral war armour with more red Furen crystals woven into it. The rest of the Chimera grew flesh as well, revealing a savage beast with a lion's head, a gazelle's head and a ferocious snake's head. The last little detail was the fact that it now had all seven colours of the rainbow running down the center of each head.

"Now then, boys. The Spirits of Harmony are too busy bickering to even notice we're still fighting them," Fortissimo said, revealing the plans for a final attack. "So, I think a final blast should be enough to finish them off once and for all..."

"We're ready, Fortissimo..." Allegro smiled as he traded in his two swords for his keytar.

"To rock their world!" Orchestral added on, bringing up his portable drum kit as well.

"If they think that The Dazzlings were good singers, then they haven't seen anything yet..." Fortissimo said as the three of them began their next attack. Before he started playing, Fortissimo raised his hand and made a claw gesture, preparing a concussive blast of Siren Magic.

He launched the Siren Magic at the black orb, which caused it to shoot out a purple ball of light. When it was done, he teleported over to it and saw that it was Twilight, free from the hatred of the others. He created a portal at where Twilight was going to land and gloated his victory to her as she fell.

"Farewell, Twilight Sparkle," he smiled, watching Twilight vanish into the red and blue portal. "If its' any consolation, your friends are going to become superstars!"

Once Twilight and the portal were gone, Fortissimo returned to Allegro and Orchestral. Once he returned to them, the three of them looked back at the black orb, which was still spouting a number of angry voices. They readied their instruments and activated their pendants, ready to put Twilight's friends under their spell.

"One! Two! Three! Four!" Orchestral tapped his drumsticks together in time to the beat and The Blasters began their deadly performance.

The Blasters began playing their instruments, grabbing the attention of Twilight's friends straight away. They could see now that the ponies had stopped arguing to listen to the symphony of dubstep and rock The Blasters were cranking out. They could see now that they had been played for fools when The Blasters started to sing.

Memories broken, the truth goes unspoken
I've even forgotten my name
I don't know the season, or what is the reason
I'm standing here holding my blade

The Blasters were all dancing rather erratically as they played, performing well co-ordinated jumps as they beguiled Twilight's friends with their spell. Their voices were also rather powerful, instantly getting the ponies to stop moving.

A desolate place (Place!)
Without any trace (Trace!)
It's only the cold wind I feel

The Blasters unfurled their wings once more and took to the sky, still playing their instruments and singing rather amazingly. They could feel their powers getting through to Twilight's friends relatively quickly.

It's me that I spite as I stand up and fight
The Only Thing I Know For Real

The Blasters enveloped themselves in a sphere of Furen Energy, similar to what happened back at CHS a few years back with The Dazzlings. Their mere transformation caused the land to rumble and shake violently.

There will be BLOOD! SHED!
The man in the mirror nods his head
The only ONE! LEFT!
Will ride upon the Dragon's back

During this part of the song, The Blasters' wings glowed a rainbow colour. They could feel the power coursing through their veins as their song continued. Their hair also grew larger and was now accompanied with Pegasus wings sprouting out of their sides, and Unicorn horns coming out of their foreheads.

Because the mountains don't give back what they take

They finally revealed their new selves, with extended hair, bigger dragon wings with rainbow entrails running across the sides of each wing. And to top it all off, they now had Pegasus wings and Unicorn horns.

Oh no
There will be BLOOD! (BLOOD!) SHED! (SHED!)
It's the only thing I've ever known!

They sang, making Twilight's Equestria friends outstretch their hooves in pure agony. They could see that the Spirits of Harmony were now falling under their spell. This was confirmed when each of the ponies had a red right eye and a blue left eye, replacing their normal eye colours.

It didn't stop there. During the instrumental part of the song, The Blasters' singing caused black, dark purple and dark blue streams to pour out of their pendants, hitting each of the remaining Spirits of Harmony in their hearts. As they were impaled by the Siren Magic, they underwent a monstrous transformation.

Each of the ponies' hooves became less bulkier and had five thin pieces of flesh sticking out of each and every one of them. The ones on their front arms were thin and curly, but the ones on their backs were short and stubby. They also lost their Cutie Marks and had their muzzles replaced for regular mouths and human noses.

Each of the transforming ponies grew translucent Hippocampi wings as their transformation neared its' end. With the loss of their pony tails, their manes had an extension and had red strips running through them. They were becoming humans and not just any humans, Sirens...

Losing my identity
Wondering have I gone insane
To find the truth in front of me
I must climb this mountain range

They sang, coming to the climax of their song. They watched as their monstrous creations came to life. Whilst they sang and played, they absorbed spectral screens, showing all of the memories of Twilight's friends. They absorbed all their good times, and all their bad times.

Whilst they consumed the memories, they created spectral screens of their own. Fabricating memories of them being born as Sirens, passing their rite of passage ceremonies and becoming Furen Sirens. They smiled as they watched their puppets' creation finish once and for all.

Looking downward from this deadly height
And never realizing why I FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!

They played a devastating ending to their song, causing the Chimera to disappear and leave The Blasters hovering hundreds of feet off of the ground below. As their song closed up with Fortissimo's menacing evil laugh, they saw their new Furen Sirens open their eyes, revealing pure red eyes where their original eyes were...


Twilight hurtled through the vortex of red and blue, feeling a concussion of sorts as she finally realized that she wasn't with her friends anymore. She looked worried and tried to fly back the other way to find them, but suddenly realized that she couldn't muster up the wingpower to fly the other way.

She finally knew the journey had stopped when she saw Ponyville below her. Again she tried using her wings, but to no avail. She was falling too fast to recover from this brutal speed. She merely braced herself and crashed through the roof of her castle, landing back in the room with the portal to the Human World with a loud CRASH!

When Twilight finally got back up onto her hooves, she winced in pain as she looked at all the damage that had been done to her physical form. She was bruised in certain areas and had entrails of blood trickling down where she'd been cut. She then looked and saw that there were a few crystals wedged into her skin in certain areas. With this all dealing her pain, she quickly used the remnants of her Rainbow Power to undo the damage and seal up all of her cuts. Once this had been done, she reverted back to her normal Alicorn state.

"Girls? Where are you?" Twilight called out, knowing that Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack. Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were long gone. They hadn't made the journey back with her, so she was all alone in this predicament. "Oh no..."

"What's the matter, Twilight?" A voice said, out of nowhere.

"Discord?" Twilight asked, wondering if her assumptions were correct. Now that Discord had been reformed, maybe she could ask him what had happened to her friends.

"That's my name, don't wear it out!" he said, popping up out of nowhere underneath an neon sign that read DISCORD! and pointed an arrow at him. He then clicked his fingers, making his entrance disappear. He could then see that there was something wrong with Twilight. "Oh, my... What's wrong with you?"

"Discord..." Twilight said, bringing up painful memories of her last moments arguing with her friends before blacking out. "I-I... I think something terrible happened to my friends!"

"No... You don't mean that..." Discord said, dreading what Twilight was going to say next.

"That The Blasters may have put them under their spell while they were arguing?" Twilight guessed, seeing as she had no memories of anything after her little argument.

"I was going to say whether or not were stuck up a tree made out of Plunderseed Vines, but I suppose that makes perfect sense as well," Discord said, throwing away a flamethrower that he had just materialized out of nowhere. "You know, you really shouldn't bore me with suspense, Twilight Sparkle."

"Help me, Discord..." Twilight said, getting into a foetal position and crying tears of worry. She knew that if The Blasters had taken control of her Equestria friends, then she'd have to fight against the very ponies that she'd forged friendships with, just to save the worlds she'd been tasked with. "I'm so scared... I don't want to have to fight my friends!"

"What do you mean, fight your friends?" Discord asked, showing up right next to Twilight. "You've already fought your friends on multiple occasions. There was my reign in Ponyville, The Changeling assault on Canterlot, Flutterbat... If anything, I'd say you should be quite used to pounding your friends senseless by now."

"But this time is different, Discord," Twilight sighed, getting up from her foetal position and explaining what exactly she meant by her previous remark. "This time, my friends are being controlled by three malicious Sirens who happen to be the brothers of three Sirens who we already defeated back in the Human World."

"Hmm... Let's see here, brothers of Sirens... Defeated in the Human World..." Discord was seen wearing a special detective hat. He was using a special noteboard, laced with pictures of Twilight's friends, The Dazzlings and Canterlot High School. Once he added a bunch of strings connecting to a single picture, he showed the menacing visages of Fortissimo, Allegro and Orchestral. "From my extraordinary methods of deducing things, The Dazzlings' brothers; The Blasters, have taken control of your friends and will be using them to prevent you from trying to fight back. Then, whilst you're begging for mercy, The Blasters will be using The Dazzlings to sing the Song of Resurrection to bring the entire Siren species back, correct?"

"Discord... How did you know all that?" Twilight asked, surprised that Discord could even have heard of such a thing at this given moment in time.

"As a Draconequus, I spend most of my time travelling. By doing so, I've learned a vast majority of things so bizarre that they'd make your head explode!" he said as he held a briefcase. As he spoke his head inflated like a balloon before bursting, causing its' remnants to fall all over Twilight. "But that's beside the point here."

"Now's the time to think, Twilight Sparkle. The time's come for you to put that big head of yours to the test..." he said, inflating Twilight's own head before he was stopped with a rather bemused face of hers. "Sorry, force of habit."

"It's alright, Discord," Twilight said, putting a hoof on his shoulder. "I've actually gotten quite used to it by now."

"So then, what do you plan on doing next, Twilight Sparkle?" he said, holding up a microphone to Twilight's muzzle. He was dressed as a reporter for a newspaper he was holding called "The Discord Daily".

"I need to inform Sunset Shimmer," Twilight said, making a suitable course of action. "I need to tell her that time is running out and that we need to start training The Dazzlings to fight. If we can make them tap into their deeper Furen powers, then we can use them as a counterattack to not only defeat The Blasters, but also break my friends free of their control!"

"Well then, you'd better get going, Twilight! You don't have much time, after all..." Discord said, showing an hourglass. As he showed Twilight the falling sands, he encouraged her to get going. "If you really value your friends, then you should be willing to fight for them..."

"Thank you, Discord." Twilight said, walking through the portal once more. With that, she vanished through the vortex. She was on her way to the Human World once again. Now that The Blasters had control of her friends, she knew that there could be no margin for error in returning and amplifying The Dazzlings' powers...
