Power, Was All I Desired

My Past is not Today

"Boooo!!! Boooo!" The crowd was yelling as the three Dazzlings ran off stage. Adagio was breathing heavily to compose herself, Aria was groaning and clenching her fists. Sonata was whimpering and taking tiny steps to catch up with her fellow friends.

"I can't believe this! No! NO! It was going so WELL!" Tears leaked Adagio's eyes as she pulled her hair.

Sonata held Adagio's shoulder. "Dagi, breathe. You've never acted like this. Why don't we go to Taco Bell? It's just around the corner."

"Well you should shut your big mouth! Do I have to shove a horse in it!?" Adagio screamed and shoved Sonata. "You've always spoiled my plans, you've always embarrassed us, and so you've ruined me! So LEAVE YOU TACO IDIOT!"

Sonata cried hardly. "Why are you so cruel!?" and she ran away back to their apartment, sobbing with her food stained magenta dress.

Aria had enough and pinned Adagio onto the brick wall. Adagio squirmed and kicked but Aria was too strong. "WHAT THE HECK ADAGIO!? This is not how a leader should act! Sure, Sonata is the dumb and the quirky one, but she makes us whole! Some leader."

Aria sighed and let go of Adagio, she kneeled on the ground and breathed heavily. Aria let a tear escape and chased after Sonata.

Adagio shakily stood up and gloomily and walked the opposite direction to the café. Aria's right. I'm going crazy. I shouldn't have snapped at Sonata. It's all the Rainbooms fault! It's them who I should be yelling at! But what plan should I plot? All my plans have failed. What's the point! Nobody adores me! Not even my bestest of friends! And they were the only friends I've ever had! Adagio slammed the café door open and hardly sat in her seat and buried her head in her messy hair and arms. She cried as hard as she could. "I- I- It's n- not f- fair!" She gasped between sobs.

Mrs. Cake walked over to a messed up Adagio. She was confused by her appearance. With her food stained dress and ruined hair. But she smiled and asked, "What can I get you?"

Adagio sat up and yelled. "Be quiet you old lady!"

Mrs. Cake sharply looked at her and stomped away. Adagio sighed and trudged out the door. But someone was watching. A hot pink haired girl named Pinkie Pie had her Rainboom dress on but with a raincoat and umbrella. She yelled after Adagio. "HEY! It's going to rain!! You need an umbrella!"

Adagio ran faster and faster, never stopping, until she managed to sit on the rooftop of her apartment building. "UUUGGGHHH! Why can't I get over it!?"

"Cause my past is not TODAY!" Adagio heard a beautiful voice on the next building. She peeked and found a cheerful Sunset Shimmer, with her fiery red and yellow hair, along with her blue dress and, phoenix wings!?

"Wh-What!?" Adagio said.

Sunset heard a shocked voice and turned around. Her wings faded until they disappeared. "Who's there?"

Adagio gasped and hid in the corner. Sunset grabbed her jacket and walked downstairs. Then at that very moment it rained hard. "Hmmm... How did she get so much power?"

Stupid rain! Whatever. I have to tell Aria and Sonata this! She put her hoodie on her head and ran downstairs to tell her conflicted friends.


After a nice, steamy shower, and fresh cozy pajamas, Sonata grabbed some hot cocoa and a burrito and sat down to watch Power Ponies. Aria did the same, only with some tea. They both stayed silent for approximately thirty minutes just enough to finish one episode. "Ari, please don't be mad, but why were you harsh to Dagi? I mean, even though she scarred me for life, doesn't mean you can almost smash her to death," Sonata muttered to break the silence.

Aria sighed and looked down. "Look, she wasn't acting like herself lately, and you are my sister/friend. I can't let you sit on the sidewalk feeling miserable." She looked up and smiled. "Even though I say you're the worst, doesn't mean I hate you."

She stood up to refill her mug. "And certainly doesn't mean I want you to leave me forever."

Sonata smiled, a small one, but it was enough to giggle. "Well then, I-"

DONG DONG! "Eep!"

Aria set her tea down on the coffee table and walked towards the door. "Who could be here at this hour?"

She opened the door to see a soaked Adagio who looked like she had a severe hangover. "Sigh. Umm, hi Dagi, why are you here?" Aria asked with a concerned look on her face.

"No time to explain. I need to tell you everything. Sorry about earlier. I didn't know what came over me," Adagio panted. Water was now overflowing the welcome carpet.

"Sure. Whatever." Aria gestured Adagio inside.

Adagio took a nice, warm bath and put on a nightgown. "Okay, so..."


"WHAT? REALLY!?" Sonata and Aria asked in perfect sync.

"Yes! With wings and everything! In the Battle of the Bands she didn't have those things!" Adagio said.

"Are you sure you haven't went loco in the coco?" Sonata stuck her tongue out.

Adagio giggled. Aria knew she has never giggled this much ever since. "Positive. And we have to get that power to restore out pendants."

Sonata suddenly became serious. "Well, Shimmie did transform with the Rainbooms. And that can't happen. Unless, she possesses an element of harmony!"

Aria and Adagio never knew Sonata was that smart. But she continued. "So we'll have to gather our broken pendants, go back to Equestria with that portal in front of the school, steal the seventh element of harmony that Shimmie possesses, wherever it is, gather it's energy, then we'll be powerful again!"

Adagio applauded. "I can't believe this. But Sonata, you're a pure evil genius!"

Sonata smile widely. "Really? Yippie!"

Aria smiled then ran to her room, then she ran back. She brought a pouch containing the broken pendant jewels. "Then lets go."
