The Defeat (aftermath)

View Online

The Dazzlings ran off stage in shame as foods and other goods were thrown at them. Once they were behind the stage, they stood motionless.

Adagio looked down at the broken pieces of her pendent. She put it up to her chest as if it wasn't broken. Nobody said a word. Adagio broke the silence after about ten minutes.

"That's it. No more singing. We're finished." Adagio said as she looked down at the ground. Aria looked at her with shock while Sonata stared at her feet.

"Wait! What!? Your just going to give up?" Aria yelled at Adagio. Adagio stood silent for a moment and then looked at her.

"Aria, we don't have our pendants anymore. Heck, we technically aren't even sirens anymore!" Adagio said looking back down at her feet. Aria turned to the nearest person and started yelling. Sadly, that was Sonata.

"It's all your fault! If you weren't such a ditz, we wouldn't be in this mess!"Aria shouted at her. Sonata looked at her with shock but, didn't retaliate like she usually did.

"Sometimes, you're just so stupid that you don't even see the things that are most important! Maybe, if you just tried harder, we wouldn't be standing here with broken pendants!"Aria shouted at her. Tears formed in Sonatas eyes. Sonata looked at Adagio who just looked like she was in a trance.

Sonata ran away crying to who knows where.

Adagios head shot up. She ran after Sonata while Aria crossed her arms and looked at where Adagio and Sonata ran off.

"I don't need them. I can do whatever I want!" Aria said to herself. Then, she ran farther into Canterlot.


Adagio ran through brushes and brambles and even bumped into a car. Twice.

"Sonata! Wait!" Adagio shouted. She was too late. Sonata was nowhere to be seen.

Adagio walked slowly back to where Aria, Sonata, and herself had been standing. Once she got there, Aria was nowhere to be seen. Adagios eyes welded up with tears as she came to realize that they had left her. Adagio finally broke down crying. She layed there in the grass for, what seemed like hours. Finally, she stopped crying for she has no more tears to cry.

Adagio finally decied to get some sleep. She was scratched and was bleeding a little after tearing through mulitple things to find Sonata. She was dirty and her eyes were puffy and red from crying. She layed up against the back of the stage and closed her eyes. She felt like crying but, she couldn't.

She cryed out all her tears.


Sonata ran as far away from them as possible. She felt like a faliure and looked like a faliure. She was all dirty and her eyes were red and puffy from crying. Her dress was all torn up but, she wasn't hurt.

Finally, she ran all the way to CHS. She layed up against the statue.(Not the portal side!). After laying against the statue for a couple minutes, she heard talking. She turned her head to find the Rainbooms in front of the statue she was laying on. She was dangerously close to them so she moved to the back of the statue instead of the side. She listened to their conversation....

"Sorry this couldn't wait till morning but, I need to get back to Equestria right away! I have some royal duties I need to take care of in Equestria before morning." She heard the purple one say.

"It's ok Twilight! We understand!" The cowgirl said.

"Good. Well, I guess I'll be on my way now!" The purple one said. She saw the purple girl walked through the statue. Sonata gasped but, instantly covered her mouth.

"Did ya hear that?" The rainbow haired girl said turning her head. They all nodded.

'Uh oh! Busted!', was the only thing Sonata could think. They started walking over to where she was. She had to think, and fast!

She finally found her escape route. When they were close enough, she went around the statue and then she was in the front. Unfortunately, the Rainbooms were walking back to the front of the statue. She did the only thing she could think of.

JUMP!!!!!!!

She swiftly jumped through the front of the statue. She felt her body swirling and changing in the portal.

Eventully, she saw nothing but darkness.


Aria was running as fast as she could through town. When everybody looked at her as she passed by, she felt...exposed? Everybody she passed by, gave her mean looks. Probley for more reasons than one. She finally came to an ally that she could hide in and/or sleep in.

She looked around. It was damp and dirty but, she didn't mind. She layed down for a moment or two. She looked at the building next to her. It was a pizza shop. She looked back at her tummy. It growled with hunger.

Because she no longer had her pendent, she was forced to feed off of...ugh...real food. She went into the pizza place and looked at the pizzas around her. It made her mouth water with hunger.

Then she remembered.

'I don't have any money!'

She always would usually sing to people to get herself a shelter and....food. They never relied on money for anything!

She looked at the menu and then back at her tummy. She grew a sinister smile. She ran out of the restaurant to get something.


Soon, she returned with her hoodie and pants on. She put her hood on so no one could see her face. She went up to register and ordered using a deep voice.

"Can I have a large cheese pizza with stuffed crust? And make it an extra large! You know what? Give me two!" Aria said in her man voice. The cashier smiled and put in the order.

A little bit later, he came back with her order. He gave her the receipt and she said she'll fill out the receipt and put the money on the counter. The cashier left and Aria put a sinister smile on. She grabbed the pizzas and ran out the door. She went into a much farther ally to hide in.

Soon, she heard police cars running up and down the streets. Aria smiled and ate her pizza in the dark of the ally she was in. The police drove right past her. She looked at the pizza and sighed. Her and Sonata always used to have pizza wars, where they'd throw pizzas at each other for fun. (Of course, she never ate them but, Sonata did!) Remembering the good memories they had, she suddenly felt bad about how she's been treating Sonata all these centuries.

She sighed as a tear slid down her cheek and into her pizza. And God help her, her tears tasted delicious.


The Rainbooms walked in front of the statue. Nothing was there.

"Well, must've been our imaginations." Applejack said smiling.

"Huh, weird. I could have swore there was something out here." Sunset said taking a short walk around the statue.

"Well, it doesn't matter. We're all still alive and well so I say we head on back home! I got soccer practice tommorow!" Rainbow complained.

Then she ran off as fast as she could, leaving her friends in the dust. Literally! They all coughed and wheezed as they waved the dust away.

"Well, I should get to the hay as well! We have final exams tommorow and I need some sleep!" Applejack said. Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie had their mouths a-gap.

"FINAL EXAMS!!!!" They shouted. They all raced off to study as much as they can. Applejack stifled a chuckle.

"I love to mess with them! Final exams are at the end of the year and it's not even close to the end of the year!" Applejack said looking in the direction that they ran off. She looked back at Sunset.

"Well, have a mighty night Sunset!" Applejack said. Then she walked off to the farm. Sunset waved and was going to walk home when she heard a door open. She looked over her shoulder to find that the school doors were open.

Curious, she went to investigate. She walked in the dark school and grew worried that somebody might be in here.

"Hello?" She said as her voice echoed through the school. Just then she heard footsteps. More like heel steps. They were so loud anyone could hear them from a mile away.

She turned and followed the sound of the "heel" steps. They sounded like they were running. The sound lead her to the girls locker room. She looked to see nothing there. She wondered if it was just a teacher tiding up their classrooms or something. Finally, she shrugged and left the school.

What she didn't see was Aria Blaze hiding behind the rows of lockers, holding her hoodie and pants.

"Phew!"

Random Stuff Happens (Updated)

Adagio had an.....interesting dream. Sonata, Aria, and herself were back in Equestria and to her surprise, they weren't taking over the world like her normal dreams would be.

They were all ponys and were smiling and playing around with each other. She was a Unicorn, Sonata was a Pegasus, and Aria was an Earth Pony. Aria was hitting a ball back and forth with Sonata and she was reading a book.

Then the Rainbooms came as well, each in pony form. Aria was talking with the earth ponys while Sonata was talking with the Pegasi. She was talking with one unicorn and an alicorn.

She and her companions had pendents on just like their other ones but, instead they were blue. The scene changed to her and the Dazzlings singing in front of a group ponies in Canterlot. Each time someone enjoyed their music, light blue smoke drifted from them and into their pendents. But something was off. It looked like nobody was under a spell. They were just enjoying their music.

Then her dream shifted again. This time she was standing in front of Sonata and Aria in a starry sky.

"Um, are you ok?" Sonata asked. Adagio became confused.

"I don't want to impose." Aria said. Adagio looked at them with uncertainty.

"What?" Adagio said in pony form.

"Wake up please." They said.

"Huh?" Adagio said. They repeated it over and over again.


"Wake up please. It's morning." Fluttershy said. One of the Dazzlings she found was starting to stir.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! SONATA!!!!!! ARIA!!!!!!!!" The Dazzling screamed. Fluttershy jumped back.

"Ugh? Where-" She started. Then she caught sight of Fluttershy. Fluttershy hid behind her hair.

"I'm sorry! I was just walking and I saw you and-" Fluttershy started rambling.

"What do you want? If you came here to gloat, then go ahead! It's not like I have anything else to do!" She said. She turned around so that she faced the back of the stage.

"Actually, I saw all the scratches and bruises and I thought that....maybe I could help?" Fluttershy asked backing away from the siren.

"Why?" She said turning around to look at to look at her. Fluttershy smiled.

"Because u motto is, 'everyone deserves a little kindness.'" Fluttershy said. She reached out her hand for her to grab. The siren looked at her and back at her hand. She slowly reached out and accecepted it.

Fluttershy helped her up and lead the former siren to her car. She only had a van for driving animals in and out of the pet shelter. Once they started on the road, Fluttershy thought it might be a good time to ask why she was there in the first place.

"So, what happened?" Fluttershy asked. The siren looked out the window. After a couple of minutes, she looked at her.

"The three of us had a fight and Sonata and Aria left me. We never had a permanent house so, I had no choice but to sleep there." She said with no emotion at all. Fluttershy decied to ask another question to keep the fire alive.

"What's your name?" Fluttershy asked. She didn't want to ask pesonal questions all the time. Then it will look like she's trying to gather information on her for the Rainbooms.

"Adagio. Adagio Dazzle." She awnsered emotionless. 'That explains the band name', Fluttershy thought. She also thought it might be a good idea to start helping her out.

"Well Adagio, would you like to get cleaned up and then get something to eat? You must be hungry after not eating anything all day." Fluttershy said. It was 12:00 and the poor girl hasn't eaten anything since yesterday. Plus, it would be a great chance to get to know her. Adagio looked at her and....actually smiled.

"I can tell your the most kindest of the group. I don't think any one has been this kind to me in centuries." Adagio said with actual emotion. Fluttershy smiled back.

"Like I said earlier. 'Everyone deserves a little kindness, no matter what!'" Fluttershy said. Adagio nodded.

"And to awnser your question, yes I would love to get cleaned up and get something to eat. This old thing is as dirty as ever and I think my stomach is yelling at me! But, I hope it won't be too much trouble." Adagio said with a worried experssion. She just reminded herself that she didn't have money to pay her back.

"Not at all! I would do anything to help a friend!" Fluttershy said. Adagio looked at her, confused.

"Friend? Y-You think I'm your friend?" Adagio said with a spark of hope in her eyes.

"Of course!" Fluttershy said. Adagio smiled as wide as possible.

'My first friend! M-Maybe this won't be so bad after all!'


Sonata woke up and looked around. She was in some kind of crystal palace. She looked out one of the windows. It was definatly morning. She tried to stand up on two legs but, she couldn't.

She turned herself around to look in the mirror. She was about to scream but, she quickly covered her mouth with....a hoof. She finally stopped her freak out and tried to stand up on four legs. Sooner or later, she got the hang of it. She looked at the mirror and stuck her hoof through. She saw a light blue human hand on the other side.

"Woah." She said. She finally took her hoof out of the mirror. She started to inspect herself.

She had a light blue coat and a dark blue mane and tail with even darker blue streaks in it. Her mane was in her normal ponytail (No pun intended) and her cutiemark was a pink heart with a...perfectly stright blue eighth note through it?

'Wasn't it a jagged music note before?', Sonata thought.

As she was inspecting her cutiemark, she heard the voices of the Rainbooms. She started to panick again. She looked at the mirror she was inspecting herself with earlier. An idea popped in her head.

The Rainbooms walked in and Sonata was frozen in place for a minute. She galloped quickly behind the mirror.

"Hmmm. I thought I heard something in here." The purple alicorn said, trotting around the room suspiciously.

She trotted over to where she was hiding and looked at the mirror from the other side. She could see the purple alicorn and she hoped that the alicorn on the other side didn't see her.

The alicorn narrowed her eyes at the mirror, as if she was glaring at Sonata. Sonata started to sweat with panick. 'If she sees you, RUN.'. Minutes passed and then finally the alicorn looked at her friends.

"Hmmm. I guess it was nothing. Let's go." The alicorn said. Everybo- Everypony piled out of the room. The purple alicorn took one last glance at the mirror and then left.

Sonata breathed a sigh of relief and trotted out of her hiding spot. She saw the place was full of boo-

"Hoo."

"AHHHH!!!!" Sonata shrieked. She jumped up to the ceiling and clung to it like a cat. She looked around the room and only found a owl. Sonata sighed in relief once again but, apparently forgot that she was still on the ceiling.

"Woah!" Sonata said as she fell. Fortunately, it wasn't a long drop. 'How is it that none of the Rainbooms haven't heard me yet.', Sonata thought as she tried to recover from her fall.

She looked back up at the owl and smiled.

"Hey little guy! Do you think you can find a book about sirens for me?" Sonata asked the owl. She knew it was the most idiotic thing she has ever done but, she is desperate at this point. If the book was too high, she had no way of reaching it. If only she could learn how to use the wings that she has...

After a minute of thinking, the owl came down with a book in its claws. It said, 'Everything you Need to Know About Sirens'.

Sonata gasped and then looked back at the owl with a cheerful experssion.

"Thank you....umm..." Sonata started. She didn't know the owls name excatly so it was hard to thank him. The owl picked up a piece of chalk out of nowhere and started writing his name on a chalkboard.

"Was that always there?" Sonata asked, pointing a hoof at the chalkboard the owl was writing on.

Once the owl was done, it sat on the top of the chalkboard. Sonata looked at the board with amazement.

"Man, for an owl you have good handwriting! Or is it hoofwriting?" Sonata said getting off tasked. Again.

"Hoo!" The owl said pointing to the board. Sonata looked back at the owl again.

"Oh, sorry!" Sonata apologized. Written on the board was the word, Owl-licouis? Was that a word? Or a name for that matter?

"Owlicouis is your name?" Sonata looked at the owl curiously.

It nodded at her.

"Interesting....I love it! It suits you!" Sonata said enthusiastically.

Owlicouis facewinged.


Aria woke up with the sound of cars and other city noises. She rubbed her eyes and looked out into the road. She needs to go get her dress washed. It was damp and dirty and it was her only change in clothes besides the hoodie and pants she was wearing. Thankfully she found a couple of cents lying around in the ally she was in last night.

She walked down the street until she reached the laundry mat. She walked in and found a washer. She put her dress in, payed, and sat down on the bench.

She looked around and saw two men in black suits who were pointing to her and whispering. She looked down and realized that she was wearing her hoodie from when she stole the pizzas.

'Crap'

The two men walked over to her. She put on her best fake smile.

"Can I help you?" Aria said with an innocent smile.

"Yes ma'am. There has been report of two stolen pizzas last night." One said flipping through a notebook. He was more scrawny than the other. The other was big and bulky.

"Yes, I heard. Terrible business that is." Aria said putting her hand on her chest for dramatic effect.

"Well, at the scene of the crime, that hoodie and pants were worn by the criminal." The bigger man said. Aria started to sweat. Apparently, it showed because they didn't look too happy.

"Ma'am you're going to have to come with us." The scrawny man said. Aria was panicking and just punched him in the face.

Aria ran out the laundry mat and pushed someone out of their car. She pushed them out of the way and climbed in. She didn't know how to drive so she did the first thing that came to mind.

'STEP ON IT!!!!!!'

She pressed the gas pedal as hard as she can and she shot off. She swerved around mulitple cars and trucks. She could hear police sirens behind her. She pushed the pedal down farther to speed up. She turned into an ally to try to lose them. She lost two of the police cars but three of them followed her. There was a dead end gate up ahead but, there was a huge wooden plank ahead.

Big enough for her to drive on it like a ramp and get over the gate.

Aria grew a cocky smile and speed up even more. She started to sweat with anticipation. She reached the ramp.

She flew right over the gate. One police car made it over while the other two popped their tires on the wire or got caught on it and was hanging on the gate.

Aria looked back at the last police car.

"You wanna play?" She said as she narrowed her eyes and grew a devouis smile.

"So be it!" With those words she turned around so that she was going stright for the police car.

She could see the police inside panicking. She went faster and faster until she hit the police car head on. Her car hit it so fast that her stolen car flew right over the police car. Somehow, her car landed right side up but, still broke down. The police car was wrecked and everyone inside was unconscious.

Aria got out of the broken down car. She looked behind her to see the broken down police car. She turned around and had a cocky smile on her face. Then, out of nowhere, she pulled out a pair of sunglasses and put them on.

"I still got it!"

Adagio looked out the window as different cars and buildings past by. Nothing could ruin her good mood right now. She had just made her first friend in over centuries and she was as happy as she could ever get. She has never felt this happy before and it felt good.

'I-Is this what friendship feels like?', Adagio thought.

As the question hanged in her mind for a moment she noticed a car that was going faster than the others. She could faintly catch a glimpse of who was inside. It was a girl and she had light purple skin and dark purple hair. She was wearing a dark greenish hoodie.

Following not far behind, was five cop cars.

'Light purple skin....Dark purple hair.....Dark greenish hoodie....', Adagio thought as if it was on the tip of her tongue.

Suddenly, it hit her like a bowling ball.

"ARIA?!?!?!" Adagio screamed. Fluttershy jumped and looked back at her.

"Aria?! Who is Aria?" Fluttershy asked after recovering from her shock.

"Aria! You know! The purple one! Always grumpy and questioning my authority?" Adagio cried franticly. Fluttershy finally remebered from the battle of the bands.

"Yeah, what about her? Did something happen to her?" Fluttershy asked. Adagio seemed to be paincking so she knew it must be serious.

"I just saw her in a (probley stolen) car! She was being chased by the cops!" Adagio screamed. She was trying her best to be calm about this but, it wasn't working very well.

"Oh no! I'll follow them to see if we can find Aria ok?" Fluttershy said turning around. Adagio broke out into a huge smile.

"Oh, thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!!!!! I'll never forget this! Now, let's follow that car!" Adagio cried as Fluttershy shot off like a bullet.

They soon caught up with the cops and saw the car that (supposedly) Aria was in, turn into an alley. Two police cars went the wrong way. The Van followed closely behind but, not so close that the police noticed them. It wasn't long until they noticed a big gate ahead. Arias car went up a plank and over the gate.

They had to do the same.

Fluttershy pushed the gas down even farther than before. Adagio had beads of sweat running down her face. Two police cars didn't make it but, they didn't care. The Van approached the plank and time seemed to slow down. The Van barely made it over but, it made it. Then something happened.

Aria turned around.

"What is that idiot doing?" Adagio whispered to herself. When Fluttershy saw this, she stopped. If she followed them, they are most likely to get caught in the collision and get hit as well.

They watched as Aria's stolen car flew over the cop car, for she had hit it head on. Thankfully, Aria's car landed right side up but, it broke down because of how hard she hit it. Once she stuck the landing, Fluttershy and Adagio had their mouth wide open.

Aria got out of the car, unharmed, and put some sunglasses on. She said something but they couldn't hear what she said. When Aria saw the Van and who was inside, her sunglasses fell off her face.

"Adagio?!?!" Aria said, loud enough for them to hear. Fluttershy looked at Adagio.

"Go." Fluttershy whispered. Adagio looked at her and smiled.

"Thank you." Adagio whispered back as she got out the car. Adagio ran up to Aria and hugged her. At first, Aria was surprised but, then hugged her back. They both cried as they embraced on another.

Fluttershy smiled as she watched the touching scene before her.

A little tear slid down her cheek.


Sonata flipped through the books that Owlicouis have been giving her. Sonata has been growing more accustom to pony ways. She has been learning how to fly and Owlicouis have been bringing her food to eat. It has been a week and she was starting to wonder how her companions were doing.

She sighed a little as she came to a book about how they were banished. She looked at the picture and touched the blue siren with her hoof. A small tear slid down her cheek and onto the blue siren. Owlicouis noticed her sadness and flew over to her.

"Hoo?" Owlicouis asked as he sat on the top of the book she was reading. Sonata wiped the tear off her cheek and looked at Owlicouis.

"Sorry, it's just...nevermind it's not important." Sonata said, putting the book down. She started to walk over to the mirror and Owlicouis followed.

"Hoo."

"Well, it's just...I never would've thought that I could miss being a siren so much." Sonata said. Her image in the mirror flickered to her old siren form.

Ponys....
They would run and scream
Every time I passed
I would sing so beautifully
And it never crossed my mind....

What am I doing? Why am I here?
Is this what I want? Or Is it even real?
And then it came to me.....

All I Ever Wanted...
Was to be seen
To be on top, to shine like a star
But, now I see...
All I Really Wanted...
Was my sisters with me...

Aria

Ponys...
Are small and weak.
I could crush them under my feet!
They would scream in terror, as I sang my beautiful song...
But it never crossed my mind....

What am I doing? Why am I here?
Is this what I want? Or Is it even real?
And then it came to me....

All I Ever Wanted...
Was to be the boss!
Be the one in charge and never give up!
But now I see...
All I Really Wanted...
Was my sisters with me...

Adagio

Ponys...
They are mindless puppets
Who are made to be under my control!
And as I sang my beautiful song...
It never crossed my mind...

What am I doing? Why am I here?
Is this what I want? Or is it even real?
Then it came to me...

All I Ever Wanted...
Was to be adored, to be in control
To be the leader and to be loved...
But, now I see...
All I Really Wanted...
Was my sisters with me...

All

Ponys...
Were always afarid of us
And Would run away on sight
And as we sang our beautiful song...
It never crossed our minds...

What are we doing? Why are we here?
Is this what we want? Or is it even real?
Then it came to us...

All We Ever Wanted...
Was to be great!
To get on top the easy way!
But, now we can see...

All We Ever Wanted...

Was for you to be with me....
