//------------------------------// // Happiness // Story: Love Until Dusk // by MyLittleGeneration //------------------------------// Ever since that, Sonata had been ever so happy. I'd honestly never seen anyone so happy before in my life. She was all giddy. She skipped, she smiled, she was even acting really childishly, but it was the best kind of childish! It was all because of her getting her voice back. Most happiest form I've ever seen in my life, like even more happier than any fictional character from any book or movie. And all she did was sing. And we, me and my friends, enjoyed it. She sang Paramore, Journey, Victoria Justice, and all kinds of actual good singers and stuff. And keep in mind, this all happened in a matter of twenty-four hours. And she also seemingly looked like she had unlimited energy, like she was doing everything while in the charger. She was that excited, and I thought Pinkie would be THE one, I mean, she still was, but Sonata was just about acting more gleeful. I didn't blame her, though. She'd wanted her voice back for a long time, and we'd tried so hard to help her get it right back. Now, she finally had her voice back. She sung all the time, she skipped all the time, it's just way of her celebrating. I actually don't think she slept at all, that day. Always heard singing and humming when I was in my bed. But anywho, the next day, I woke up to hear Sonata singing once again. She was in the kitchen making breakfast tacos. She was in the middle of finishing it, and the scent of the tacos filled the air. I don't usually eat that stuff, so I reached out for the usual: cereal. I filled a bowl and started to eat. Sonata, on the other hand, came by and gave me a quick, sudden peck on my cheek. She giggled as she sat next to me and ate her breakfast taco. "Well, I see you're still happy," I said. Sonata nodded. "Mmhmm," she said with a mouthful of her taco. She swallowed, then said, "Always will be. Now that this is back." She then sang a harmonic tune. "Aaaa, aaaa, aaaa, aaaa." Which by the way sounded like Ariel's song from 'The Little Mermaid'. Once again, she had been doing this all the time yesterday. Though, I was still happy for her being happy again. "Well, I'm glad that makes you happy, and I like seeing you happy," I said with a smile. She giggled and blushed. "Aww." she said, then giving me another peck on the cheek. Man, she really was in a good mood. I then got a call on my cellphone. It was Sunset. "Hello," I said. "Hey, Shine," she responded. "So, how's Sonata?" I cracked a smile. "Still as giddy as she was yesterday," I answered. Sunset giggled. "Alright, so I guess it might be great to ask you guys over at the stage?" she asked. "You know, for me and Sonata doing the duet for the song?" Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that. Oh, and it appeared Sonata had been eavesdropping and heard what was said. She took the phone from my hands. "Yes!" she said happily and ecstatically. "See ya there!" Sonata quickly hung up the phone and wrapped her blue arms around me. "Yay!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, tightening her hug. It was lovely and painful at the same time. We made our way to the stage after Sonata released me, and soon we were there. The band sat there tuning their instruments, then Rainbow Dash gave us a little wave. "Hey, guys!" she said with a smile. We waved back. Sunset got off the stage to greet us. "Great to see you here," she said. She looked at Sonata. "So, you ready for that duet?" she asked the excited Dazzling. "Totally!" she responded. Sunset let us get on the stage, and pulled out a piece of paper, which I guess was the lyric sheet so Sonata knew what she was going to sing. She looked at it, and it looked like she loved it. "Doesn't look like it'll be too hard." she said. "It won't," Sunset told her. "We'll just practice a bit so you can get the gist of it, then we'll do the real thing. Don't worry, you'll be great at it." She smiled at Sonata, to which Sonata smiled back. "Let's do this," Sonata said confidently. I sat on a chair, and listened to them go over the song. They didn't even really sing the song yet, and I loved this so much. Sunset and Sonata's voice combined, it was like an ultimate voice fusion. Kinda like the Goku and Vegeta fusion, except that didn't have to do anything with singing. Still though, it was very harmonic. It then got really good when they practiced their duet together. As music started playing, Sunset and Sonata got in position, ready to sing. Then it was time. "Power... was all I desired," they both sang. "But all that grew inside me, was a darkness I acquired." Everything was perfect. The voices combined, it made me fall under a spell- a good spell. As they sang, they smiled. And as they smiled, I smiled. Everyone smiled. It was such a unique song, and such a joyful one, too. It could totally lift someone's mood up easily. Nice job, Sunset. I mean, this song fitted both of them. Both of their pasts were villainous and dark, with Sunset being the school bully and trying to take over the entire school as a she-demon, and Sonata being apart of a seductive group which had tried to used their singing to control the school. But now, it was different. Sunset and Sonata both were trying to be good, and tried to show it, yet it was gonna be a long road ahead. This was their song. As they finished, I stood up and clapped. Sonata ran towards me and wrapped her arms around me to form a hug. I lifted her up as she was laughing. "Woo!" she said in glee. I put her back down, and gave Sonata a quick peck on the lips. Sunset was right behind her, and she quickly gave Sunset a hug. "That was AWESOME!" RD said. "Agreed." I said in agreement. Sunset smiled and giggled a little. "Well, I'm just glad we had a perfect-" But suddenly, while Sunset was talking, she stopped. Like she something odd and drifted off her words. I looked to where she was looking, and then, there was a person. A familiar face. Everyone noticed the figure, and was pretty alarmed by it. "Hey..." the voice said.
