//------------------------------// // Never Play With Fire. // Story: Adagio, Aria and Sonata's Stupidly Amazing Adventure at the Everfree Amusement Park! // by Lesbian Adagio Dazzle //------------------------------// Canterlot was a small, quiet little town. It wasn’t very well known. Its inhabitants were honest, hardworking people but were ruthless when it came to the mornings. In the mornings anyone with a job would often push, shove and claw their way to work, not even caring about who they knock down, however when evening arrived, it was like an entirely different world, almost everything was dead quiet and abandoned. It was one of those dark, cold, desolate winter evenings. Almost everything lay tranquil. While most of the townsfolk usually retired to their homes at this time, there were few places still open. Everfree: the town’s most popular amusement park being one of them. It was a haven to young rebellious teenagers looking to have some fun. The establishment thrived on this. Outside the gates of Everfree, two hooded figures waited. One of the strangers removed their hood to reveal a girl looking around the age of seventeen. Her outfit was simple; it consisted of a dark green hooded sweatshirt, navy blue jeans and white sneakers with strips of purple. As soon as she removed her hood, her great anime styled ponytails were unleashed upon the world, the color was blinding: Purple with green streaks. She may have wanted to be unnoticed but that hair was not going to allow it. “What are we doing here, Adagio? This place smells like trash, Sonata is missing, And How the hell did my hair even fit into this hood?” The aggressive girl glared daggers at the other. The other girl was wearing similar attire albeit a different color, a dark purple hooded sweatshirt instead. She too removed her hood only to reveal an insane volume of orange, fluffy, puffy hair with Sun golden streaks; any bystanders still around couldn’t help but stare at this exotic beauty. “I thought that idiot was with you! Hopefully she’s not assaulting some taco merchant like last time…that was embarrassing." Adagio grimaced at the memory, but still continued “and as for the plan, Aria, I’ve heard that the Rainbooms; our rivals, well two of them at least are here, if we can use our siren powers to absorb as much negative energy as possible…” Adagio touched her blood red ruby heptagon amulet, it was attached to a leather choker, it fit as though it was tailored to her skin; the other Sirens possessed identical artifacts. “We can rule this pathetic little world and make everyone adore us!” Adagio released a sinister, low, but slightly sultry chuckle. “But Adagio our powers conveniently won’t work against The Rainbooms they’ll just shrug it off and blast us with a magical giant unicorn or something. I. Hate. Unicorns.” Aria growled. Adagio spoke with an unknown gleam in her eyes “Then if those Rainbooms won’t adore us we can always "persuade" them to…” If looks could kill, that devilishly sly smirk Adagio was giving Aria would likely melt the ill-tempered Siren’s face off. Sometimes Adagio could be very creepy, especially when it came to the Rainbooms or pretty much girls in general. “We are irresistible after all” Adagio flicked her luscious, marvelous, divine hair and sends another creepy smile towards the Aggressive girl’s way. Aria was about to respond with a snarky retort when a confused, crazed and chaotic blurred mass that was Sonata Dusk, suddenly collided into her sending them both tumbling onto the cold, hard, dirt covered ground like dominoes. “Oh! Hey Aria! What’s going on? That was some fall huh?” The lunatic of a Siren asked. When describing Sonata, “Hyper” was an understatement. The girl couldn’t pay attention for five seconds and when she wasn’t tripping over her own two feet, she would mention the delicate topic of tacos, once she started, she would never stop. It really annoyed the other Sirens, well “Annoyed” wasn’t even close to describe the utter irritation that would consume the other two Sirens whenever Sonata wouldn’t stop mentioning the word “Taco”. The last time she ended up being hogtied, gagged and locked in Canterlot High’s janitor’s closet for seven hours, Aria’s doing of course. “It’s really cold today can you believe it!? Oh! Is that a new sweat shirt? I love it! It’s so cu-“ “SONATA!” Sonata would’ve gone on for hours if not for Aria’s interruption. Strangely Aria seemed very… flustered. “You called? Well… Yelled” Sonata beamed. “Get off me you freak! You’re causing a scene and people are staring!” Aria seemed to have a very deep crimson blush and for good reason. Sonata was too busy talking the night away to notice that she was practically straddling Aria’s waist. When realization kicked in, Sonata’s mind blanked, it felt like an eternity to Sonata. She stared at Aria through lifeless eyes. There was an imaginary snap and just like that, Sonata’s lips were pulled into a twisted, deranged smirk filled with untold secrets, oozed dark desires. Sonata’s tone drastically changed from her innocent, childlike, normal tone (As normal as Sonata could be anyway) to one that was serious, deep, and was dripping with venomous malice. “I like you in this position, Aria…” The freak of a Siren gently stroked Aria’s cheek. “It shows just how vulnerable you really are, no matter how hard you try to hide it”. Sonata’s insidious grin seemed to reach ear to ear. It was so eerie it could put The Cheshire Cat to shame. Aria had never heard the taco loving Siren talk to her that way before, let alone be brave enough to touch her! She was seriously starting to think that Sonata was possessed or had a secret life full of cold blooded murders, planned heists and Sonata herself being the head of a large underground organization. The weirdest thing about the whole ordeal was that it didn’t bother Aria one bit; in fact the only thing that she could focus on right now, was Sonata. How close the blue haired Siren was to her, how soft her touches were. There were certain features about the pale blue skinned Siren that were previously invisible, but this close up, Aria noticed it all: her small, cute, little breaths, her sweet rose like fragrance, how surprisingly light she was on top of her and most of all; her beautiful magenta eyes that were slightly lighter from the inner iris. Aria would deny it of Course, but she knew with every fiber of her being that she felt some sort of strong feeling about Sonata, but couldn’t quite put her finger on it, so for now decided to beat the hyperactive Siren at her own game. “Don’t get me wrong, I like your new attitude, Sonata, but there’s something you better learn fast…” Sonata’s uncanny smirk immediately vanquished the second she felt their weights unexpectedly shift, Sonata found herself on her back and staring up at Aria. Their positions were reversed. “If you play with fire, you’re going to get burned…” Aria flashed a predatory grin down at Sonata. “That’s enough, girls. We have work to do.” Aria’s train of thought was lost when the Siren leader intervened before things got serious. The once twisted Siren’s attention was diverted from Aria to Adagio; her savior. With this small distraction Sonata used it to escape the clutches of the not so vulnerable Siren. Aria knew her fun was over; she stood up and dusted herself off. “Sonata, where have you been? Didn’t I tell you to meet us by the entrance gates” Adagio took one second to analyze the insane Siren and her mood instantly changed from slight worry to royally pissed “I said to dress anonymously! Do you even know what “Anonymous” means? Are you really that much of an idiot to not know basic vocabulary?!” The Siren leader exploded with the furies of Tartarus, Sonata had a small pout on her face. She didn’t like being yelled at. Sonata was wearing a dark maroon leather jacket, fully buttoned up with lighter shaded collar and sleeves. A short pink skirt and laced dark pink and white boots. How Sonata wasn’t freezing to death is a mystery no species will ever solve. Like the other two girls her hair had an insane volume and color: sky blue hair with intense sapphire streaks. Sonata’s pout was replaced by a sunny, radiant grin. “You won’t believe it! So I was on my way here when I suddenly saw a taco stand! But the guy selling them kept saying “Not enough cash, stranger!” whenever I tried to purchase a taco plus he had a really poorly done Australian accent, anyway this went on for some time so I just killed the guy, disposed of his body by melting it with sulfuric acid in a tub, stole the tacos and ran all the way here! Sonata smiled and a cute giggle escaped her lips. The two sane Sirens felt their jaw drop and hit the floor, sure what they were planning to do wasn’t exactly moral but what Sonata just committed was a murder with a complete lack of empathy. Adagio made a mental note not to get in between Sonata and tacos. “But that doesn’t explain the outfit, Sonata. What’s with it anyway? I thought the Battle of the Bands auditions were next week.” The amethyst eyed Siren voiced her thoughts. “Oh, you mean this this?” Sonata tugged at the fabric of her leather jacket “I found it” Sonata answered “You found it?” Aria questioned “Yep!” Sonata proudly confirmed. “Sonata, you idiot!” a certain Siren leader shouted “That outfit makes you as suspicious as a creepy, towering, slender guy in a forest, wearing a suit!” To Sonata’s warped mind that wasn’t creepy at all but then again a lot of things to Sonata weren’t creepy. Sonata just shrugged. Adagio face palmed. The sound of police sirens echoed in the distance and was gradually getting closer. “Oh crap it’s them! I thought I lost them! Don’t just stand there! Run you fools, run!” Before anyone could react, Sonata jumped through a window of a nearby restaurant that was conveniently connected to the Amusement park. The shattered glass fluttered around like snowflakes caught in the mercy of a harsh, relentless, unforgiving blizzard. It was truly a beautiful sight, almost makes you want to stick your tongue out and try to catch the shards, though that’s not very advisable. “She did know she could’ve used the door right?” Adagio pointed out. “That’s our idiot” Aria murmured, her lips unconsciously twitched into a small smile, which was a rare sight indeed.
