You are the Music in Me

School Fight!

After school, Sonata and I decided to stick around in school, trying to find the girls, who were supposed to hang around here somewhere. We roamed the school silently until we found Fluttershy. She was looking around, trying to see if someone's following her. When she thought the coast is clear, she started to walk quickly. I looked at Sonata, who puts up a mischievious smile and we followed her quietly. Oftentimes, she looked behind her, trying to see if she was being followed. Fortunately, Sonata and I were quick to hide. We were able to follow her to a music room. We got closer to the door, but it was sound-proofed for obvious reasons. By a streak of luck, we saw an open window, but we can only go there by getting out of the school.

"Hey, Sonata. Let's go outside." I whispered and went to the window. As we went there, we heard the conversation.

"-that confirms it. She has her powers back!" Exclaimed Rainbow Dash.

"How?" Asked Sunset Shimmer as she scratched her head. "She doesn't have her gem back, does she?"

"Who cares if she has her gem back or not. She's evil and we need to put here down before she does." Argued Rainbow.

I clenched my hands, but I knew why they wanted to do that. They still see her as a siren, not as a scared and confused girl finding her way home.

"But the question remains," said Rarity. "Where were the other two sirens?"

"What are you doing here, Sonata?" Asked a voice behind us.

Question answered.

We turned around and saw two girls standing above us. Wait... Those hoodies. They were the ones who ditched Sonata that night!

The girl with the huge amount of hair pointed a finger to Sonata.

"I thought we made it clear never to follow us here." She said.

Sonata glanced at me then to the ground.

"I-I wasn't f-following you, I swear." She said.

The other girl with the violet pigtails scoffed and raised an eyebrow.

"Don't lie to us." She said. "We both know you couldn't just ran into us by accident." She then glanced at me and gave me a creepy grin.

"And who's your friend? He's kinda cute." She said.

I stood up, almost towering her by a few inches and spoke.

"I'm the one who took her in when you abandoned her. And I'm the one who brought her here." I said, with a small hint of anger in my voice. "Why did you have to do that? She's nothing but a sweetheart. How can you be so heartless?" I asked.

The girl with the orange hair chuckled as she walked up to me seductively. Shivers were sent up and down my spine as she held my chin, and it was not of pleasure.

"Is that what you believe?" She asked as she looked at me eye to eye. "You probably don't even know what she really is."

I swatted away her hand and sternly looked at her. "Actually, I do. And I'm helping her regain her powers back so she could use it for good, unlike you two blokes."

The girl paused, then she smiled.

"How could you say that she'll use it for good. We're monsters, and it's in our nature to use our powers for evil. You think you could change our way of life? Well, you're wrong." She said.

Sonata stood up behind me, hands clasped over her chest.

"Adagio, Cass, please." She begged. "I don't want anyone to fight. I just want to go home."

"And what would you do, if you went to Equestria, huh? Live amongst the ponies as one of them?" Adagio asked as she turned her attention to Sonata.

Sonata puts her hands over here ears, eyes tightly shut.

"N-no! S-stop!" She said.

Adagio bent down just above her. "And what about when you sing? Will you watch on while the ponies begin to fight for your adoration?"

Sonata dropped to her knees as tears begin to flow down her cheeks.

I tried to push Adagio away when the other girl stepped in front of me. She then threw a sucker punch to my face. I fell to the floor as I held my nose. Blood started to flow down my face as I saw Sonata crying

"Just accept it, Sonata, you don't belong here, just as much as you don't belong here." Adagio said as she looked at the girl towering me.

"Get rid of him, Aria."

"With pleasure" she said as she placed her boot above my head. I breathe heavily and spun on the ground, knocking her down. I rolled to my feet and threw a punch, which she caught. She reeled her head back for a headbutt, which I did the same. When our heads collided, Aria stumbled back as I stood my ground. Seeing my chance, I lowered myself to the ground and delivered an uppercut to her face. Just as she was on air, I grabbed her collar and threw her to the ground. I then pulled her up and delivered a force palm on her gut, sending her flying. I turned my attention to Adagio, who was looking at me with fear. Suddenly she smirked and I felt a boot to my groin. Normally, I would immediately fall to the ground, but this time, I didn't. I turned around and Aria looked at me in surprise.

"Really?" Was all I said before I grabbed here neck and threw her to Adagio. The two fell like rag dolls and Aria was out cold. Adagio pushed off Aria's body and crawled backwards as I walked towards her. I took here by the collar and placed her face mere inches in front of her as I glared holes into her face.

"Save whatever dignity you have left. Return and pay the consequences." I said. She nodded quickly and ran away. I stood up and carried Aria behind my back.

"Come on, Sonata. Let's get her to the nurse's office." I said. Suddenly, I saw the girls at the entrance with wide eyes and fearful expressions.

"Good." Was all I said as a giant wave of pain covered my body and I fell to the ground unconscious.
