> ADAGIO > by Pathious > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Decrescendo > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The light was blinding, painful and colorful. The elements released upon the Dazzling's was incredibly powerful. There was no escape and no way of turning back. Fates sealed and amulets shattered. The dazzling's were left on their knees. Adagio slowly brought a shaky hand to her forehead. She could feel all that gathered negative energy slipping away. Adagio slowly opened her eyes, the lights casted on the stage were reflecting in her vibrant raspberry eyes. She looked around as she and her companions Aria and Sonata shakily got to their feet. She placed a hand on her chest as she and the other sirens tried singing, only to let out a wrecked and terrible note of failure. Their voices of beauty gone and shattered like the amulets before them. Adagios eyes filled with tears as the whole school began to place hate on her shoulders. They shouted and hollered hateful words. They couldn't take this change, the sirens could have had it all. Instead the were left in the ashes of shame. They turned and ran off the stage. They didn't want to hear this anymore. Adagio felt as something smacked her in the back of the head. The audience was throwing things at them. One moment adored, another nothing but an American idol wannabe. "Adagio, we sounded terrible~!" Sonata said as she tried to wipe the tears that were rushing down her face. They blinded her to the point f tripping. Sonata fell scrapping her knees on the pavement. "H-how could this have happened?" Sonata was choked by tears. "We followed my foolish plan..."Adagio felt as a sharp pain shoot up from the ground and into her chest. She immediately brought a hand to her chest in pain. A warm sensation began to cover her hand. It started to run down her arm. Adagio's raspberry eyes shifted to look at the problem. she held her hand out in front of her to see the bright red of blood coating her palm and fingers. Her irises shrank as she saw this mortal sight. Adagio almost immediately collapsed to her knees as her fellow sirens began to experience the same problem. Blood was coming from their chests where the amulets once resided. Adagio coughed as blood began to seep up and out of her mouth. The elements of Harmony are not made to kill or bring harm, Though in this case the contributed to what they are normally incapable of. The sudden disappearance of the Amulets which are attached to the sirens chests when they are in full form was causing them to die. Almost as if their hearts were torn from their chests. "Adagio~ I w-want t-taco" Sonata whimpered as she began to really feel the pain. Adagio's sight began to fade as she looked to her right to see Aria vomiting blood. She collapsed to the ground now unconscious. All three sirens now lay motionless on the ground. Around two and a half hours later Adagios eyes shot open to see the bright moon right up in the sky above her. She slowly looked to her right and was met with the pale and lifeless face of Sonata. Adagio shrieked as she jolted up only to trip over Aria who also lay lifeless on the ground. Both sonata and aria had dead and cloudy eyes. Adagio could feel no life coming from them. Even without her magic she was still bound to them by a bound that packs of sirens shared. She felt no life no feelings no magic. Her friends were gone. Adagio felt tears begin to well in her eyes. She couldn't shake away the crying sensation that now consumed her. She had always played it tough with her allies only to never show the love she felt for them deep down. Now they were gone and there was no way of showing them. Adagio shakily got back up onto her feet. She turned and began to wobble her way out of the alleyway. She couldn't stare there not with the thought that her time would soon be coming. Not far down the road walked a troubled young boy named Ron. He unlike everyone else at Canterlot high did not go to the battle of the bands. In fact he wasn't in school for the past year. He found no use for what society dubbed as education. Allot of that nonsense he felt he would never use. Though little did he know he was on a collision course with something that would change his life forever. Down this long road there was a wobbling and stumbling Adagio Dazzle. Ron was in a collision of absolute fate, nothing was going to be able to stop it. He was almost to his friends house when Adagio intercepted him. She ran right into him. She was obviously hurt from first glance. "Holy shit lady what the hell happened to you!?" Ron asked as he lightly shoved her back not wanting to have her blood on him. He noticed the large 3 inch wide hole in her chest. "Wait did someone shoot you!?" He then quickly rushed over to help her. "Y-you have t-to help m-me~!" Adagio said as blood was now only slowly leaking from her mouth. Her pupils were so dilated that she appeared to have some brain damage. Ron initially had no idea how to react. This lady had randomly came at him. "We need to get you to a hos..." Ron's words were cut off when adagio's eyes rolled back and she began to fall to the ground. Ron quickly caught her to prevent her from hurting herself. Ron held her in his arms as she was completely limp. He looked around to see if anyone was nearby. He didn't know why but the sudden urge to bring her to his place rather than the hospital swept over him. She seemed to be alive still, after all for some reason despite the hole in her chest Ron could hear the loudest thump of a heartbeat coming from her. The sound was loud like the sound of a heartbeat you would hear from a really big animal. Ron should have brought her to the hospital that night rather than bring her home. Maybe he saw something in her he had never seen before. Maybe he was scared her death would be put on him. After all his family wasn't exactly smiled upon. His mother dead and his father an addict. He didn't exactly look like mister goody two shoes. Never the less he found himself bringing her to his home. If his father found her he would kick her out despite her condition. So Ron was taking quite the risk. When he eventually got her to his place he laid her in his bed. Hoping maybe she would be done bleeding. Ron looked at her as she remained motionless. Why was she dressed the way she was. What kind of event was she at, Nobody wears clothes like that on a regular basis. Ron eventually left her alone in his room as he made his way to the couch in the living room. For a small apartment it had a decently good sized variety of rooms. Ron slowly laid back on the couch. his entire body had a slight shake to it. He was scared. Eventually somehow he closed his eyes and drifted into a sleep. Ron awoke that morning to the sound of rustling in the kitchen. His father was never in the kitchen, plus it was only seven in the morning. His father wouldn't be home for another three hours. Ron listened carefully but when he heard the sound of something smashing on the ground, he shot out of his chair and ran for the source of the noise. He turned the corner and ran into the kitchen as he clumsily slipped on the floor and slid the rest of the way into the kitchen. His eyes closed in pain as he now laid there. The sound of footstep came his way. Ron slowly opened his see the vibrant raspberry eyes staring back at him. Adagio was walking? Ron's eyes widen as he saw the hole in her chest was gone. How the hell does a three inch hole just disappear. Ron clumsily got to his feet. His legs slipping on the floor several time before he stood. "Morning." Adagio quickly said. Ron stumbled back as she spoke. He was freaked out. This lady should be dead. "Back up lady, you....you zombie." Ron said as he quickly reached for a weapon to defend himself closing his eyes as he whipped it out and pointed whatever her had grabbed at the assailant. Adagio slowly walked to him pulling whatever he had out of his hand. Ron slowly opened his eyes to see Adagio holding a banana while keeping another one of her hands on her hip. "Your going to kill me with a banana?" Adagio raised a brow as her gaze shifted to look at the banana. She began to peel it as she took a slow bite out of it. She then turned and walked into another room not uttering anther word. Ron stood there as he was rather dumbfounded by this dubious begging to his day. What the hell just happened. This women was waltzing around like she owned the place. She never gave any form of a thanks to Ron. Then again did she even have a recollection of last night. Adagio eventually made it to the living room and sat on the couch Ron had slept on that night before. She indeed had a complete recollection of the events that took place last night. Se was just trying her best to stay strong and show no emotion towards it. She wasn't going to break down and let this stranger feel pity for her. She simply finished the banana that she had been threatened with and then tossed the peeling in the wastebasket by the right arm of the couch. Adagio then looked at Ron who was now on the phone, he appeared to be talking on it. That's when she swore she heard him say something about her. Though he didn't know her name the women he was describing sounded an awful lot like herself. "Coda you have to come quickly man, This women is in my house and she is acting like she owns the damn place." Ron said to his friend that he was talking to. "Again there is a women in your house and you haven't tapped her yet." Coda said on the other line. "Coda again that is beside the point here. She should be..." Ron took notice that Adagio was coming towards the kitchen. "Dude just quickly come ok....bye.." Ron quickly brought his shitty flip phone to a close as Adagio entered the kitchen all the way. He hoped to god that Tom would quit being a smart ass and get his ass to his place soon. If not who knows what was going to happen. > Sweet Serenade > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adagio looked around as she entered the kitchen. Her vibrant eyes flaring with gleam as the light reflected off of them. Ron was bedazzled by the color and beauty contained in even just her eyes. Ron was going to try and say something but word were failing to slide off his tongue. "Who were you talking to?" Adagio questioned as she glanced at the cell phone that Ron was grasping tightly. "Hey lady I think it's none of your business... I was talking tooooo a friend." Ron raised a brow at Adagio as he was both entranced in her beauty and dumbfounded by how uncomfortable he felt around her. "Sorry, sorry, You are right I shouldn't snoop into your business." Adagio said in a rather soft voice as she began to grow slightly tired. "Maybe you should lay down, you look tired." Ron said as he noticed the tiresome look deep within Adagios eyes. "Your right, I could use a little bit of rest." Adagio said as she yawned. "Then how about you head to the spot you slept last night. I have no problem with you sleeping in my bed....as...of...right now." Ron smiled as he began to feel even more awkward about this whole situation. He didn't know why but there was a growing attraction to this lady he didn't even know. Hell he didn't even know her name. None the less he walked her to his room so she could sleep. He sat in a chair next to his bed waiting till she passed out. His eyes getting heavy themselves as he waited. Since when was this old chair ever comfortable? Ron eventually fell into a deep sleep. There was a slamming knock on the front door of the apartment. Ron shot out of his chair and hit the deck like a soldier under fire. Ron quickly realized how ridiculous he was being and slowly stood to his feet. Ron was rather startled by the sudden pounding on his door. So in response he slowly crept to the sound of the thundering pounds. Ron slowly opened the door to be met with the face of Coda the friend he had called on the phone earlier. "Dude I have been sitting out here knocking for six minutes mind letting me come in before my balls fall off?!" Coda gave Ron a look that showed he was angry. After all it wasn't exactly warm out anymore. "The cold out here is enough to make mount Everest shit it's pants." Coda jokes as he walked in without permission. He slowly slipped off his coat as he came in. "Yeah lets just walk in without me answering~!" Ron rolled his eyes as he closed the door which gave slight resistance as the breeze outside blew on it. "Now about this girl you were talking about on the phone, where is she exactly?" Coda said as he rubbed the little bit of scruff he had on his chin. He was trying to grow a beard but it was miserably failing. Coda then slowly looked back at Ron. Codas bright green eyes had quite the sinister look in this dimly lit room. Though Coda was very harmless. "She is sleeping in my bed at the moment Coda, She needed the sleep so I let her use my bed." Ron gave a slight blush as he rubbed the back of his head. He coughed allowing the blush to fade as he then looked back at Coda. "Anyways we should probably keep our voices down so we don't wake her, she seems very irritable." Ron said as he kept his voice at a now low whisper. "I'm still confused at the fact that there is a women here and you haven't attempted to you know... bone her." Coda said rather bluntly. "Dude unlike you I don't have the urge to screw everything that wears a dress." Ron said as he crossed his arms. Coda let out a fake gasp "Ron I feel as if you take me for some kind of man whore, That hurts bro~." Coda gave a smirk as he made his remarks. "That's not what I meant, I just want my first time to be true. you know what I mean?" Ron said as he got uncomfortable. "That..... has to be the dumbest thing I have ever heard you say." Coda said as he gave a quick facepalm. "Dude you have been single since I met you. Don't you think it's time to stop being such a virgin." "Dude stop talking your gonna wake her.........." Ron froze in the midst of his own words. Ron started making the shut up motion with his hand across his neck. "She's behind me isn't she?" Coda said with a similar tone of voice he had this whole time. Coda slowly turned around to see a face he recognized. Unlike Ron Coda had been at the battle of the bands. He had seen Adagio and her friends fail in their plan for world domination. Codas irises and pupils shrank as a fear washed over him. He did not say a word as of right now, though there were several things he wanted to say. "Would either of you like to explain why your talking so loud?" Adagio smacked her lips together in a tired manor. Her large mass of hair was all messy. Even now Ron couldn't help but stare at her. She was very beautiful, despite her whole suppose to be dead thing. "You two are very loud I must say." Adagio put one of her hands on her cheats where the hole used to be. She kept her hand there as if the wound was still existent. "Sorry we were being so loud. I told Coda he needed to be quite. This shows how well he listens." Ron rubbed the back of his own head again as a red blush throbbed under his eyes and on his cheeks. "Sooooooo Adagio Dazzle, where are your companions? you know the ditzy one and the emo." Coda said flatly "They usually are right by your ass." Coda had become very mean now that he saw who tis women was. Adagio after all had mind controlled the entire school. Adagio immediately clenched her fists as the images of her dead friends flashed though her head. Tears were immediately welling in her eyes. "What are you talking about Coda? you know her?" Ron said as he now became rather confused. "Don't you ever mention my friends by such bias terms." Adagio clenched her fists tighter as tear began to run down her cheeks. Ron noticed this immediately. Ron quickly without even thinking pulled Adagio into a hug. Coda said nothing all he did was watch as his friend hugged this women. Adagio was caught off guard by the hug so she let out a gasp at first. Then the sense of security overwhelmed her as Ron had his arms wrapped around her. She slowly wrapped her arms around him as well. Her tears soaking into the T-shirt Ron was wearing. Coda's eyes suddenly looked like they were feeling sorrow for what he had said. He had never gotten an answer to his question but he didn't want to ask it again. "It's ok your here and your safe." Ron said trying to make Adagio feel safe. "Soooo your name Is Adagio huh?" Ron said as he remember that Coda had called her by name. "Y-yes my name is Adagio." She sniffled in response. Then one of those time when you honestly think things can't get any worse happened. In this case it got worse because a drunken father who had lost a poker game had finally arrived home. Everyone could her his mumbling rage the moment he entered the door. Ron's eyes widened as he heard his father enter the room. "Oh shit~!" Ron said in a kind of whining voice. Ron's father entered the room to see Ron holding some girl and to see Coda. Whom he strongly disliked. "RON GOD DAMMIT~!" His father shouted "I TOLD YOU I DON'T WANT CODA IN MY DAMN HOUSE!" Greg, Ron's father said as he thundered his way into the room all the way. "Dad calm down, There is no reason for this." Ron said trying to get in the way of his father. Greg knocked Ron back with a swift backhand slap to the eyes. Ron fell o the ground holding his eyes. Adagio stood there watching. Her raspberry eyes flashed to a golden snake like eye. This happened quickly they were only gold for a couple seconds. Sort enough that nobody noticed. She had seen violence amongst groups before. Though she had never seen parents be so violent before. "Coda you get the hell out of here, Same goes for you womennnnn." Greg said as he turned towards Adagio "I want her out before you go to that stupid karaoke part Ron." Greg said as he thundered his way to the living room. The drunken gorilla sat down in his recliner and he watched TV. Almost as if this whole confrontation had never happened. Adagio slowly got down on her knees, she placed a hand over Ron's eye. She had never felt such compassion for a human before. This human on the other hand looked like he could use a friend. "Great I have a karaoke to go to and I look like shit." Ron said as he looked up at adagio who was covering his black eye. "What am I gong to do?" Ron let out a long and soft sigh. Adagio sat there with him as she was lost in thought. "If it would help I c-c-could go with you to the k-karaoke." Adagio said as the thought of being around singing gave her a sense of meaning. Then again how would she handle being around something so native to her. > Sweet serenade > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ron did let Adagio come with him to the karaoke, Though Adagio couldn't exactly go there wearing the clothes she was wearing. Society tended to be cruel, so if she was wearing this stuff society may call her a wore. So Ron gave her a dress his mother used to wear and showed her to the bathroom. "Now when your done just come get me alright, I'll be on the couch. I may be napping." Ron said as her placed a hand on Adagios shoulder. Adagio's eyes shifted down to look at Ron's hand. A light blush forming upon her face. "I'll be sure to wake you if you are sleeping." Adagio said in a soft voice. She was beginning to feel love towards this human. Which was odd since Adagio had never felt any form of this feeling towards any animal since a bad experience of betrayal from her own kind. Ron slowly removed his hand from upon her shoulder. "Alright so I'll b-be on the c-couch." Ron said stuttering slightly. "You get dressed." He smiled. Adagio gave a soft smile back as she entered the bathroom closing the door behind her. She was met with her reflection of herself in a mirror. Her hair was all frizzy and messy from lack of care. Her irises showed deep sorrow that the rest of her body wasn't willing to show. On her right arm she had a couple scraps from when she fell to the concrete ground. She remembered how she had seen the once life filled eyes of Sonata turn to nothing but lifeless cloudy orbs. Adagio hated to see herself in such a fragile state. She wasn't suppose to be the one who was to break down, she was suppose to ne the one to stay strong. Adagio rubbed her right arm as some tears welled in her eyes. "Girls I miss you." she nearly collapse to her knees. "It's not fair~!" she punched the wall next to the mirror putting a small dent in the wall. Adagio looked up into her own eyes as she peered into the mirror. "Ron needs someone right now, just get dressed and go with him." she smiled slight as she slowly slipped off her clothes. She crossed her arms to cover her breasts as she looked in the mirror. Adagio was looking at herself in the mirror much like a teenage human girl. She was curious as to what her looks would be classified. She noticed her curves were something that caught her eye. She ran her fingers down her own side as she looked in the mirror. Adagio still held the dress in one of her hands. She started to put it on. The dress was red, the dress part or skirt draped over only one leg to allow the other one to be visible. The dress was shoulder strapless so her arms and shoulders were completely naked. Ron didn't mention this but the building they were going to was also rather fancy so at least Adagio wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb. Adagio admired herself in the mirror. She was cheering up but deep down her eyes still showed sadness. She took a deep breath as she slowly exited the bathroom to go see Ron. He wasn't lying when he said he would be napping on the couch. While she was getting dressed he must have been doing the same. Instead of the red sweatshirt he was wearing earlier he was wearing a simple dress shirt and pants with a tie. Ron immediately woke up when Adagio entered the room. "I w-was going to sneak and get one of my dads old outfits but, since he is drunk and sleeping in his room. Probably best I don't go in there." Ron said as he yawned. "If anyone is going to stick out at this party, it will be me due to my simple outfit." Ron finally noticed how Adagio looked in his mothers old dress. Ron suddenly became speechless. "So Ron, Who will be giving us a ride?" Adagio questioned. "Oh well umm Coda will be giving us the ride we need. After all he was the one who told me about this place... I have no idea where it is." Ron said as he slowly stood up. It seemed as if Coda had heard his name because right when his name was mentioned there was a knock at the door. The source of the Knock was Coda. "Lets get a move on you two, we have to be there soon." Coda said. So Ron and Adagio exited the house and entered the car. Coda smiled as he then drove to this place. Coda took fifteen minutes to get there but they did make it. When the pulled into the parking lot Adagio's siren like sense kicked in. She could feel the music, it was lovely. Being devoid of magic didn't prevent or hinder Adagios ability to sense music. After all the only magic she had was her voice. She was still a siren, just one without her voice. Much like a song bird who can't sing. The singing brought a smile to Adagios face. The smile grew once they entered the building. The more she heard singing the more she wanted a go at it again. "Ron, Ron~!" Adagio hollered "Can I sing, I want to sing." Adagio smiled. "I don't see why you can't, Go ahead go sing." Ron said as he sipped on his glass of water. Coda spit out his water as he heard this. He was at the battle of the bands so he knew that Adagio's voice was wrecked. Never the less Adagio made her way onto the stage after she had selected the song she wanted to sing. She was incredibly nervous. She wanted so badly for her voice to be the sironic beauty it once was. The beat slowly started and she tried the first line of the song. The words coming out raspy and terrible. She felt terrible, One crowed member even shouted boo. Adagio felt tears starting to form. Then those tears turned to anger as she requested for the beat to start over. Ron started to head for the stage to get her off to prevent her from upsetting herself. Adagio breathed out slowly as she closed her eyes. she then started singing again. "How can you see into my eyes like open doors?" Her voice sounded beautiful and a complete opposite of before. "Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb" Adagio opened her eyes slowly. "Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold. Until you find it there and lead it back home.." Adagio smiled at her own voice. "Wake me up inside. Wake me up inside. Call my name and save me from the dark." Adagio started to walk around the small stage. "Bid my blood to run. Before I come undone. Save me from the nothing I've become." "Yeah go Adagio~!" Ron shouted as he was being overwhelmed with excitement. None was falling under a spell because Adagio was devoid of magic. Adagio's voice was just coming back to her. "Now that I know what I'm without...You can't just leave me... Breathe.. into me and make me real, Bring... me... to... life" Adagio clenched one of her fists. "Wake me up inside. Wake me up inside. Call my name and save me from the dark" Adagio removed the spikey band from her hair which allowed her hair to hang loosely. "Bid my blood to run. Before I come undone. Save me from the nothing I've become." Adagio sang as she began to feel more and more alive. "Bring me to life....Bring me to life." Adagio began to sway her hips slowly to the song. "Frozen inside without your touch. Without your love, darling. Only you are the life among the dead." Adagio breathed slowly. She started to sing the part of the song normally song by a male. She did this rather well, Though she obviously sounded nothing like a male. "All this time I can't believe I couldn't see. Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me. I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems! Got to open my eyes to everything~! Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul~! Don't let me die here...There must be something more~! Bring... me... to..... life~!" Adagio held the note when she sang the word life. She was by far one of the best singers here. Ron was ecstatic he was jumping up and down. "Yeah~!" He yelled out in a cheerful way. " Wake me up inside. Wake me up inside. Call my name and save me from the dark! Bid my blood to run! Before I come undone! Save me from the nothing I've become~!" Adagio lowered her head as she finished up the song with this last part. "Bring me to life.....Bring me to life~!" Adagio finished the song and cheers broke out everywhere in the crowed. Some asking and begging for an encore. Ron ran up onto the stage in excitement. "Adagio you sounded absolutely amazing." He went to hug her only to have her grab him and lock lips with him in a kiss. Adagio so badly wanted to just tear Ron's clothes off. That was exactly what was going to happen. > Sleeping with Adagio > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ron entered his room holding Adagio by her hips. They were in a heated make out as they entered his room. Ron was holding her really close as they fell onto his bed. Adagio was letting out moaning sounds as Ron now kissed her multiple times on her neck. Ron quickly got Adagio's dress off. Adagio only clothed in a bra and panties now. Her soft pale apple green skin luscious to the touch. Ron stroked her soft and curved sides as they continued to make out. The pants adagio was wearing earlier before the party were on the floor by the bed. there was a distinct red glow coming from the pocket. Adagio and Ron did not notice this. Deep inside this pocket was a shard of Adagio's Amulet that appeared to be reacting to Adagios sounds of pleasure. Ron slowly slid his hands under Adagio's bra, his hands now upon her. He was really beginning to enjoy himself. Without question Adagio started to take Ron's shirt off. Ron pressed is bare upper half against adagio this accidentally yet conveniently undid the strap of Adagio's bra. The crystal in the pocket on the floor began to glow even more rapidly. Adagios eyes changed to become more serpent. Somehow Ron nor Adagio noticed this. The room was to dark to see her eyes turn from her raspberry eyes to golden serpent eyes. Ron slowly started to slip off the rest of this dazzling ladies clothes. They were both incredibly entranced in each other. "Ron, I-I h-have never felt like this before." Adagio panted as her teeth were only slightly sharper than before. but this to was not noticeable in the dark. "I've never felt like this either, well except for that one time in middleschool but she never liked me back..." Ron's word were cut off by Adagio putting a hand over his mouth "Shut up and kiss me." adagio said as she pressed her lips to Ron's Adagio and Ron still did not notice the glowing pocket of the pants on the floor. Adagio began to release a scent that Ron's nose could not pic up on. Only animals were able to detect the smell. It was a natural mating sent. It was meant to keep other sirens aware what was going on. That also they should stay away. Ron and Adagio quickly found themselves in a quarrel of intercourse. Adagio letting out both human and inhuman voices The human ones were much easier to detect Ron could not hear the inhuman noises and moans. His human ears to weak to detect the siren and reptilian noises. They were on a level of sound humans normally can't here. Ron's Father whom had hearing aid could slightly hear the reptilian noises in his sleep. This made him stir in his sleep slightly. Ron was on his climax when there was knock on his door. Ron pulled out and cam all over Adagio's stomach. He looked down at her stomach and smiled. "Sorry about that...I should check that." Ron said as he quickly got his pants on. Adagio got comfortable under the covers. She was full of energy, despite just finishing an exhausting sexual experience. That's when she noticed the glowing pocket of the pant on the floor. Her eyes lit up with excitement when she saw it. she reached out and immediately she knew it was a shard of her amulet. That's when the Tv in Ron's room was ending a movie. The movie was monsters inc. She looked at the screen as mike the green monster was explaining to sully that the door only worked if you had every piece. Adagio heard those words and they were repeating in her mind. Adagios eyes shifted over and looked at the glowing shard. The words still repeating in her head. Could that rule apply to her amulet? could it work if she got all the pieces of her amulet? Adagio's heart began to race as the thought ran through her head. She couldn't hold her burst of excitement she had to find out. Adagio jumped out of bed slipping on her clothes as fast as she could. She had to see if she could fix her lost magic. Then the thought of her friends her companions came across her thought process. Adagio's eyes widened as pain shot through her body her heart felt like it would explode. "A-aria, S-s-sonata~!" Adagio said in a voice that had a load of pain. She nearly collapsed to her knees when her nose began to bleed. The memories of her friends disappeared the pain leaving with them. This memory and feeling only made Adagio want to try the idea she had more. She wanted to do something for the sake of her memories. She never wanted to let go of them, she never wanted to let her companions fall because of her failure of plans. Adagio quickly exited the room walking by Ron who was about to enter the room. He had a look of shock on his face for he wasn't ready for her to just walk out of the room. "Adagio, where are you going?" Ron said as he scratched the back of his head in confusion. "I-I need to go for a walk, I need to clear my head on a few things." Adagio said as she reached the door to exit the apartment room. She was scared to leave because she as magic less so she was pretty much defenseless. "I'll be back don't worry Ron." Adagio said as she opened the door and left the apartment. he couldn't believe she would be going back the place where her rise and fall had happened. She was putting faith on the hope for the stage and the shards to still be where they were. She needed those shards and without them how could she ever forgive herself for letting them fall into a useless trash bin somewhere. So in the end she had her hopes on the failure to clean up, she had hoped the faculty hadn't decided to clean it all up yet. What if this whole idea would end up to be pointless what if she got there and the shards were gone. So many questions were running through her head. Her heart dropped though when she saw the stage looming in the distance. A unforgettable group standing on the stage talking. The Rainbooms. > Shine like Rainbows > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adagio could feel rage bottling up inside of her. Those cretins were the reason her friends could not be here today. The murdered her companions her pack members. Adagio started to sneak her way closer to see what these girls were talking about. Unfortunately she couldn't get close enough before the pink one was able to spot her. "OMG that's her that's one of the sirens." Pinkie said in a loud and rather obnoxious voice. "What is she doing here~!" She yelled out. Rainbow Dash looked over at Adagio. Rainbows violet eyes gazed upon the serpent. "That's an excellent question Pinkie, What is she doing here?" Rainbow said as she crossed her own arms in dismay and confusion. There was a hint of anger within those violet eyes. Rainbow was definitely the more aggressive of the group. "Oh lets start pointing fingers." Adagio aid as she made it to the stage. "I should be annoyance to you, after all you took away the only source of power I had." Adagio was trying her best to not get to angry around them. After all if these girls wanted to fist fight Adagio may be slightly if not majorly out numbered. "What brings you back here? Was the large crowd yelling boo not enough for you?" Rainbow said her arms still crossed. "I'm only here to see where I failed. I can't possibly be up to anything." Adagio gave a grin that made the whole group uncomfortable. Rainbow started to walk away as she got uncomfortable the rest of the group following after her. They didn't speak much of anymore words towards the golden serpent nor did they exchange looks. Adagio looked down and her heart immediately skipped a beat as she saw the broken shards of the amulets. Adagio felt tears begin to well in her eyes as the thought of Sonata and Aria began to fill her head. They were close so long ago. They were a pack, a family. All those meanings gone like a flash of light. All of that mattered when she looked at these broken shards. Adagio picked up the shards with shaky hands. She finally let herself actually cry. Tears streaming down her cheeks. Adagio was on her knees and soon laying on the ground holding the shards close to her heart. Adagios heart was aching so badly. She believed nothing could ever hurt more........boy the irony of being wrong. > Wrath of a Siren > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- several months had past since Adagio found her and her friends amulet shards. Adagio however had not tried to put them together yet. They were more of a closer thing at the moment. Safely hidden in Ron's room. Adagio found no need to use them for anything but closer. After all her friends were gone and she had no one else left except for Ron. Though Ron had been acting a little different as of late. He had been leaving the house a whole lot more often, and would come back home so tired he could hardly have a full conversation with Adagio. Today was going to be a big day. "Adagio, I know I have asked this a thousand times but could you please come to school with me today?" Ron asked her for she never went there with him. "Ron you know how I feel about that place. However I'm in a very good mood today......so.... yes I shall come with you." Adagio gave a smile towards Ron. She had a blush growing under her eyes . Adagio walked close to Ron wrapping her around the base of his neck. She tilted her head and smiled more. "Do you have any idea how happy you just made me." Ron says placing his hands on her hips. "If not I can tell you." he smiles back at her. "I think I have an idea on how happy I've made you." she slowly unwraps her arms and goes to the wardrobe to find some clothes to wear today. Adagio eventually decided on a simple shirt and blue jeans. Ron was spinning keys on his index finger as he was heading for the door. Right when he opened his front door he was met with the face of Coda, who was wearing a shirt of black along with some torn jeans. He had a necklace on that Ron had never seen before. The necklace had a crystal skull on the band. "Well if it isn't my loser friend Ron." he jokes as he had his arm out blocking Ron from exiting. "So is she coming this time?" "Actually yes she is." Ron said as he slowly made Coda lower his hand a little bit. "I would like you to kindly let me and her out of the apartment." Ron gave a chuckle as Adagio made her way to the door. "Well then for once I guess I will see you both at school." Coda starts to make his way to the exit of the apartment building. Ron and Adagio decided they would follow him. Adagio had a weird feeling coursing through her body. she couldn't understand why she was having it. Adagio didn't feel good at all, she kind of wanted to run and hide. She was having second thoughts about going with Ron to school. There wasn't time to go back... It was beginning to appear as if this golden sea devil was going to find herself stuck in a place of decay and friendship. Adagio got into Ron's vehicle as he was now able to drive. Soon Adagio found herself in a car that was now pulling into the parking lot of the school. Ron parked as close as he could, allowing Adagio to see a rainbow haired familiarity. Rainbow Dash was not far from the vehicle. Adagio felt a sharp pain in her chest when she saw this Lady. One of the Rainbooms. One of the murderers of her friends. Ron exited the vehicle and walked to the passenger side of the vehicle to let Adagio out. He opened the door and Adagio quickly got up and kissed Ron so she could feel some form of comfort. Rainbow dash saw this as it happened. "Oh my good, Pinkie look." Rainbow said as she nudged Pinkie pie on the shoulder. They were some distance from Adagio so Adagio could not hear them. "Adagio is kissing Ron." Rainbow had a sort of angry look growing on her face. "Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww that's adorable." Pinkie said in her usual hyperactive one of voice. "No it's not adorable, it means trouble. She will hurt him an I know it." Rainbow dash was showing feeling for Ron and that was becoming quite apparent to the loudmouth Pinkie pie. "holy bonkers you love Ron don't you?" Pinkie pie said loudly. The sound was just loud enough that only Adagio could hear it due to her siren senses. Rainbow quickly put a hand over Pinkies mouth. "quite Pinkie your gonna let everyone know while your at it." Rainbow had a rather annoyed facial expression. Adagio and Ron at that moment walked right by Rainbow. They paid no attention to her. Rainbow felt anger welling inside of her. Rainbow went to go run after them when a rather big hand stopped her. A man now stood in front of her. he was wearing a camo hoodie. "Listen lady going after a beast like that would be a bad call." The man said as he moved his hands back into his pocket. another figure stepped out into the light. This figure had a women stature. Her face not visible. she was wearing red rings on her fingers these rings had small spikes on them. The male figure obviously knew her because he wasn't startled by her sudden appearance. "If you go out after her now, she will tear you to bits." The lady like figure spoke as she removed her hoodie revealing tattoos on her cheeks that appeared to look like stitching. her contacted eyes made her eyes look like Mitch matched swirls. "Who are you two? What makes you think you can tell me what to do?" Rainbow dash said in a even more Aggravated voice. "My name is Castok. I'm a monster hunter and a deer hunter. Me and Spiderwick here know all about your little siren problem." Castok gave a chuckle as he brought his arms out of his sweatshirt. Only to cross them across his own chest. "Rainbow dash it is I presume that your name since I watch everyone like a hawk." Spiderwick giggled as she gave a rather terrifying gaze towards Rainbow dash. "please don't prove to be as stupid as you seem." "I'm not sure I appreciate being insulted by your friend Castok." Rainbow flinched slightly at the gaze she was receiving from Spiderwick. "If your so smart what would you do to prevent the one you love from falling victim to a serpents cruel joke?" "That's simple actually, you see Adagio as she is called can be easily distracted." Spiderwick exclaims. "Adagio responds the best according to my studies to sounds in slow tempo. Hints at her name Adagio. If you were to play a slow tempo on a frequency that People can't here. Such as a recording like the one from the incident at your school." Castok holds out a I pod and plays the audio, the sound being Aria singing. "Se would come straight to the voice of an old pack member but only if it was played on a level un hearable by people. Also played backwards will be best." "doing that would draw her away long enough for you to convince Ron what she is and how dangerous she can be." Spiderwick said placing a hand on the big shoulder of Castok. "Soooooooooo will you help me with such a topic or subject?" Rainbow said as she had become quite interested in these two. "I would be willing to help, but you'd have to pay me for it." Castok smiles "I two would help but I would rather do it quickly as to not become to close to you relationship and friend wise." Spiderwick said rather bluntly. "So yes we will help you." "With a price of about thirty bucks." Castok reminded everyone that he wanted to get paid. Rainbow was quickly holding the desired pay out to them. "I'm willing to pay for it." Rainbow smiled. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Adagio and Ronw ere walking to class when it happened. The beginging of the end. Adagio was walking holding hands with Ron when she heard the call. The noise sounded like Aria. Her heart skipped a beat as she wanted to respond. She didn't Instead she let go of Ron. "R-ron, i have to go use the restroom real quick....i'll be right back." Adagio lied. "Infact i'll see you in class." Adagio quickly ran away and toward the noise she was hearing. Ron on the other hand stood there as he was incredibly confused. He kind of wondered what had his girlfriend on the fritz so suddenly. that's when rainbow dash an a couple of shadowy figures became visible. "Lets do this, we only have so much time." Castok said "We don't want the wrath of a siren" > Don't count your chickens till they have hatched > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Once Adagio had run off. Castoke and Rainbow decided now was the time to act. There was no time to waste. Castoke had made it entirely clear that Adagio was a dangerous and unpredictable creature. More so than even Rainbow Dash had known, He made it rather clear that if they did not act now. There could very well never be another chance. “Ron~!” Rainbow said as she stepped out infront of him to stop him in his tracks. “Well, well, well if it isn’t the girl who always mocks me.” Ron said in a tone that showed that for some reason he didn’t exactly like Rainbow Dash “Ron I suggest you use your brain here and listen.” Castoke said in a rather soft tone of voice. “We have to talk about your new girlfriend. Adagio is here name right~?” Castoke questioned. His stern eye watching Ron very closely, Castoke badly wanted to get paid for this. More importantly though he wanted to make sure that Ron would be out of harm’s way from Adagio. What Castoke and Rainbow didn’t know was that Adagio was watching. She had quickly found out that the noise she had heard was false. She was also slowly beginning to realize that this must have been planned against her. Adagio could feel a pain start to throb in her chest. This pain felt so much like the pain she had felt when she had lost her amulet. Adagio felt as if her heart was breaking. She could hear Castoke and Rainbow starting to tell Ron what she was. Adagio felt something start to form in her eyes. Something she had not felt in many years possibly decades. A deep reptilian growl resonated from Adagios throat as she started to make her way toward them. Castoke saw her coming and he gave a nod to a couple people across the room. Castoke had just given them the command to make sure Adagio couldn’t stop them. Castoke’s friends were specially trained to make sure that a selected person was to not make it past them. “Sorry Adagio, you’re not permitted to pass.” One of the young men stated in a deep tone of voice. Adagio closed her eyes and another deep chested reptilian growl was heard. This one caused the shards of her amulet to glow. Adagio had decided to take every piece with her today. Adagio slowly opened her eyes. Her beautiful Raspberry eyes had turned to a raspberry colored snake like eye. Deep within her irises were speckles of gold coloring. The men grew rather uneasy as they saw Adagio becoming rather upset. These men knew they were messing with something dangerous. After all they were working for Castoke the man who spends most of his life searching for things that may not even exist. “Awwwwwww darlings,” Adagio said as she extended her arms allowing one finger to rub under the two men’s chins. She scratched under their chins. “I think we can come to a few terms here.” Her expression of false enthusiasm faded instantly to a face of anger. Adagio had entered into a small fit of rage. She picked the men up by their throats. “Step aside or perish.” Adagio felt like she was stepping back to the days she had no choice but to act primitive to the equally primitive men whom piloted ships across an ocean that they did not control. Castoke saw this just as they had finished up explaining to Ron What Adagio was. Ron had the most shocked look on his face. Adagio at that moment could feel what he was feeling. His emotions were connected to hers. A soft whimper came from Adagio as she let go of the henchmen whom had done their jobs perfectly. The kept Adagio from the one being she loved. The one being she had emotions for. The one being whose emotions she was now forced to feel. Adagio knew he was unhappy. The tears in her eyes were starting to blind her vision. Adagio had never felt such emotions in a long time. Castoke saw the emotion that was pouring out of the Siren. Rainbow had not seen it for she was preoccupied with trying to comfort Ron who had just found out his girlfriend Adagio was a giant sea serpent. “Rainbow we have to go now.” Castoke said as he slowly stood up. He was keeping his eyes on Adagio knowing he and Rainbow had just made a really big mistake. They had done wrong. Castoke believed that Adagio’s intentions on Ron were nothing but negative. He was wrong he could see the Sirens heart was broken. He never knew Sirens could love. “Why exactly do we have to go? I’m trying to comfort Ron right now.” Rainbow said with a voice full of confusion. Trust me Ron will be fine. It will be us who will be hurt if we stay.” Castoke grabbed Rainbow by the hand and pulled her close. “Let’s get out of her right now. You can have all the time you want with Ron….Just not right now.” Castoke started to pull Rainbow away and out of sight. Ron watched as they disappeared down the hall. Ron started to turn around when he was met with the crying face of Adagio. Ron jumped back as he was not expecting to see her. Her makeup was streaking down her cheek as she was still silently crying. Adagio slowly wiped her eyes to try and keep her cool. “H-hi Ron y-you ready for c-class?” Adagio held on of her hands on her chest as she held out another hand to Ron. Adagio forced a smile on her own face. Though she had stopped crying she still had streaks down her cheeks this depicted her in a distressed mood. Ron looked at her and his heart kept skipping beats seeing her in such peril. He may have just learned she was some reptile but that didn’t stop him from feeling bad for her. Ron slowly caressed Adagios cheek. He took out a handkerchief and he slowly started to clean her upset face. Adagio closed her eye as the handkerchief rubbed her face. Her cheek were now visibly red and irritated from both her crying and Ron’s not entirely professional cleaning skills “Yes Dagi I’m ready for class. May I ask why you were so upset?” Ron said as he was obviously unaware that she knew about what he now knew. “N-no reason dear. I was crying t-tears of joy because I love you.” Adagio said in a semi truthful manor. She was crying because she loved him. But they were not joyful tears. They were the unjoyful tears people feel when they feel they are about to lose the one last thing that matters to them. > Decrescendo cordetta > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- So Adagio decided she was going to walk home. She was to confused to be with Ron right now. she emptied her pockets into the cold air. She held the shards of the Amulet that belonged to her. "Please work." Adagio said in a sadden voiced as she held it out. There was no one around at the moment. The streets of this small suburban area were silent and empty. The amulet in her hand started to glows and float up. The pieces aligning to fit together once again. The amulet hovered on place as Adagio started to sing. "Lost forever can't be found. Lost forever yet your still profound. How I miss you how I want you...Your nothing but a dream." Adagio started to sing about the friends she had lost. "I want to hold hear your voices but your gone.. yes your gooooone~!" The amulet started to slowly piece together as threads of black string started to weave into the silky band that held the amulet around her neck. "Please come back watch my back keep me strong for all I can. I can't do this on my own I can't find my way home. all I want is to see your face again...." she pauses. "So you can lead me home again." the amulet flew onto her neck as it was now rebuilt. "Don't give in you need them, yet you can't seem to find your way home... you can fight you stay strong.. don't give up.........don't let them win." Adagios words were starting to suck the energy from homeless people nearby whom could hear the beauty of a voice she now possessed. "Soooooooo I'll fight stay alive... not give in. don't let them win. Hold on tight... Because I bite." she giggles. "Your mine." Adagio looked to the sky as she felt energy surging through her veins once again. The feeling was so invigorating. She had to make sure Ron would not be stolen from her. He gave her that feeling of security. He was the only living thing she felt love for. She was not going to sit back and let people interfere with what she felt only belonged to her. Adagio started to walks her way back home. She had such excitement running through her. Though this happiness was about to be cut so short. In such a descending manor it was going to unleash the wrath of a sea beast in love. Adagio immediately felt something was wrong when she walked up to the door of Ron's apartment. Adagio could smell a feminine smell that she recognized one that belonged to a rainboom. Adagio shakily placed her hand on the handle. When she opened the door she was met to Ron being pinned to the couch by Rainbow dash. Rainbows lips pressed against Rons lips. Ron saw as Adagio entered the room. "Oh shit....A-adagio this is not what it looks like this is not what it looks like I swear." Ron said as he struggled to get Rainbow Dash off of him. "Wha-whaaaat I-is happening?" Adagios right upper eyelid twitched as she saw rainbow dash was topless. "No Adagio s-she came onto me~!" Ron said defensively. "AND YOU LET IT HAPPEN~!" adagio stomped her right foot in rage as her eyes turned more snake like. "HOW DARE YOU BREAK MY HEART LIKE THIS~!" Adagio said as she started to look at Rainbow. She wanted to unleash this anger upon the human girl but at the moment was refraining from doing so. The amulet that was now upon Adagios neck started to glow. Adagio's Teeth were visibly changing to a more fang like state. Rainbow Dash started to stand up as she wanted to get out of the room. "Adagio I didn't let it happen I didn't mean for it to happen. I didn't want it to happen. I'm sorry." Ron said as he put his shirt back on. Ron went over to give Adagio a hug. Once he had his arms around her Adagio simply got more infuriated. "Don't you touch me Ron...My love only meant something to you when you thought I was human." Adagio snarled slightly at Ron "How can you turn your back on me. When you know my pain? I wanted you to save me the part of me That's begging to die. Every turn leads me to a new dead end. now I'm just lost again." Adagio said as she placed her hand on the wall. She slowly scratched the wall, leaving deep cuts in the wall. "I wanted to know you, I didn't know there's so much at stake. I didn't know you were some reptilian animal forced into a human form." Ron said as he was now getting frustrated. Ron had never felt anger towards Adagio before. Before today all he had felt was love for her. This obviously no longer existed. "And you know what Adagio...... We are breaking up we are done." Ron said as he pointed at the door for her to leave. "Your dumping me. you insolent pubescent child." Adagio said as she reached and grabbed Ron by the neck. She slowly lifted him off the ground. Ron you are going to live to forever regretting those words." she felt her eyes begin to fill with tears Adagio felt as if her whole world had just fallen apart. Adagio et go of Ron and quickly headed out the door. When Adagio left the apartment she felt she needed to express herself so she did in the most native way she could. "The clock is ticking. The seconds pass you by as you lie frozen. You are petrified of one more failure. A swing and a miss might break your heart in half. Yeah I know you feel alone. Don't let it break your back." Adagio began to sing. Her amulet started to glow a tears now consumed every inch of her eyes. "Don't lay down~! Don't let it destroy you~! Pain is real but it's not gonna own you! Not this time around!!!" Adagio looked back at the apartment behind her. Get back up, got to keep on trying. Raise your fist, got to keep on fighting. This is your time now. This is your time now~!" Adagio felt her heart and gut start to ache as she continued to sing. She was tempted to turn around and destroy the very lives that had just broken her heart. > Siren Song > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adagio had never felt such heartache. She felt power and anger surging through her veins as she was walking away from the monstrosities that had broken her heart. She knew she should have never let love into her heart. Last time she did that it had the same outcome. She was holding her new reformed amulet close to her chest as she was walking outside in the cold. Was Ron lying when he said it wasn’t what it looked like? Was Rainbow the one who had caused such a terrible outcome? Was she the one that Adagio should be blaming? Was she the one whom needed to be destroyed? Adagio had question after question just flowing in and out of the depths of her now secluded and angered mind. Adagio was a very tempered creature. Her history of being violent was incredibly relevant. She had been angered many times in the past. Even by her pack of three. Aria had caused her similar anger several times before this. Adagio had traveled quite the distance in this short time. Snow had decided to drop its depressive cold upon her on this walk. The flakes easily collecting to the girth of her mass of hair upon her head, she had found herself wandering into a homeless shelter. The men and girls around her looked at her when they saw her. Some of them appeared to be feeling an unknown sorrow for her. While some were looking at the pendant she was holding close to her chest. Adagio knew what was happening here. These people were able to strongly feel her feeling because she was a siren. The species she is always projects feelings through its magic. She was quickly intercepted by a man with a straggly beard. He held out a steamy bowl of soup to her. “Here you go stranger, it’s awfully cold out here tonight. Please come take a seat by the fire.” The man offered her kindness in the form of soup and a fire. The man had the kindest smile upon his face. This man didn’t even know Adagio yet he was giving her food and warmth. Adagio was at a loss for word. She felt no feelings towards this man yet she was beginning to realize that human beings are not all bad. There are just a few, who are really bad eggs Adagio did take a seat by the fire as she quickly slurped down the soup. Adagio watched the man closely as he now sat across from her. “why are you being so kind to a stranger?” Adagio said as she whipped her lips of left over soup. “Are you always this nice to complete strangers?” “I sit on the street every day and not a soul stops to help me. It feels only right to lend the hand to others, even if I do not receive the same kindness from others.” The man stated quickly and truthfully. “Though I recommend you keep that amulet hidden. Many could use that to buy food and alcohol.” Adagio looked around as she noticed some of the men had gotten much closer as they remained staring at her amulet. She knew that if they pulled something on her she would be able to defend herself. She just didn’t want it to come down to that. No reason anyone should have to die tonight. She was in bad enough of a mood at this point. A few lives being taken wouldn’t take an ounce of her sanity away at this point. For what are a few lives to her. “I wouldn’t worry about them too much. They are simply going to find themselves in a world of hurt if they try anything.” Adagio’s Raspberry eyes glanced around as she spoke. She kept her hands cupped on the bottom of the bowl. As she began to feel slightly uneasy, the negative energy resonating from the possible assailants was about to drive her insane. The feeling of all that possible energy was making her hungry to take it. She tried to focus her attention elsewhere. The man whom had handed her the soup could tell she was growing uneasy. Seeing her uneasy was making him uneasy. The man had his hand on a knife as he was growing very uneasy. Adagio looked around as a nictating membrane now covered her eyes. She was seeing in a thermal vision. Being of a predator nature she could hear all the uneasy heartbeats of the scared. There little thudding hearts was beginning to put a smile upon her face. The flames like reflected in her eyes which were now golden in color. The man who had helped her stumbled backwards as he saw this. Some individuals were now sneaking up behind her. Or so they thought, Adagio stood up incredibly fast as she placed a hand upon the throat of one of the individuals. Adagio let out a terrifying sound of a reptile as her mouth morphed slightly out of proportion. Her mouth returned to normal as she stopped making the noise. At first there was a lot of screaming, after the noise on the other hand. Everyone was frozen as if they were stunned by the noise. “What are….you.” Said the individual who she had grabbed. “Only your worst fucking nightmare,” Adagio made the noise again as her teeth turned into sharp razors. She bit into the neck and ripped off a piece of flesh. She then tossed the man aside. Blood covered her lips. It was running down her neck slightly as she then turned toward everyone who was running away. She spit out the piece of flesh as she started to let out a singing note. All then runners froze again as the felt they had to turn and go to her. Adagio kept making visualizations and hand notions to lure them to her. Fins started to form upon her cheeks as she continued to make noises that had such and essence and purity to them. Adagio was not allowing the man who helped her to be lured on the other hand. After enough of the individuals were close to her she started to draw from their energy. She had her arms wide open in a welcoming manor. The kindness was soon to fade. Adagio looked around and listened to the new enlightened heartbeats of her mind controlled people. “What are you doing to them?” The man who had helped her screamed out as he tried to stand up. The shocked coursing through him was overwhelming. So overwhelming that he was too weak to fight back, Adagio looked at her slaves as she held out her hands. Once one of the slaves grabbed her hand a sound was unleashed. The hearts of her followers stopped pumping from the high frequency. Adagio watched as the bodies fell. She started to walk off into the night. She was sure to make headlines the next morning. Her next plan, Get back at the ones who had broken her heart, Rainbow dash was about to find out what happens when you steal from a greedy sea devil. > The high life > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adagio felt nothing but anger. She felt her whole word slipping away. The only goal she had now, was to bring Rainbow dash to her demise. Rainbow dash had made the worst mistake she could have possibly made. Adagio had found herself n the apartment next door to Ron. She knew exactly what she was going to do tonight. She was going to unleash all of her power upon them at once. Screw making magical versions of her Siren form. She was going to turn into the flesh and blood. She looked at herself in the mirror of her new bedroom. Red eyeliner made her appear aggressive. She wanted nothing more then to crush them beneath her. Coda Ron's friend who had been acting strange lately was on his way to Ron's apartment. He had been edgy after Ron dumped Adagio. Almost as if he knew something about her that the rest of them. He opened the front door of Ron's apartment. He saw Rainbow Dash had her arms wrapped tightly around Ron in a passionate hug. Coda could feel the energy in the room. "your both so foolish." Coda said right to their faces. "Thinking you can just be happy after breaking a sirens heart." "Wow Coda since when did you get sympathetic?" Ron stated as both Spiderwick and Castoke entered the room. "I think there is more to this Coda friend of yours then you seem to think." Spiderwick said as she removed her hood from her head. "In fact he seems to share traits with Adagio." Castoke the man of few word responded with a nod. "Guys come on I've known Coda since we were born. He is just like you and I." Ron said with a smile on his face. Spiderwick kept her eye on Coda in a way that meant she was tired of being in the shadows. She was willing to put an effort fourth to keep an eye on this guy. Coda seemed to have the same look on his face. "Perhaps we should all get ready for the party. We wouldn't want to be late would we?" Coda said as he now twirled keys around his finger. Coda looked at the love birds and then the unprofessional monster hunter like people. He looked closer at Spiderwick as he walked by t get to the car. "One shouldn't try and call people out when she herself isn't normal." Coda said as he exited the room and to the car. Ron shook his head in a way that meant he was getting kind of tired of the attitudes in the room. "Alright lets just go then shall we." Ron said as he started walking with rainbow dash. "Like coda said....we wouldn't want to be late." He smiled as Spiderwick now stared at him. "Right... Ok I'll meet you all in the car. After about half an hour everybody had managed to get in the car. Spiderwick and castoke were only coming incase Adagio decided to show up. They didn't know it yet but they didn't even have the experience to take such a thing on. When Coda pulled up to the pool party, what they saw was outstanding. There had to be hundred of people here. Three pools and one hell of a music stage. "This is going to be kick assssssss~!" Ron said as he quickly got out of the car. "There is now Time to waste." Rona dnt eh others all went to the party. One being on the other hand stayed by the car. Spiderwick, nobody knew it yet but she wasn't really into having friends and the thought of these people becoming her friends made her uncomfortable. "What they making you uncomfortable?" Adagio said as she had walked up to Spiderwick. Spider jumped at the tone of her voice. She quickly became stunned when she saw how she was dressed. Adagio was wearing a strapless red dress with deep red leather gloves. "You know your being watched..right?" Spiderwick said as she now tried to keep her cool. "Be that as it may... I have a stage to attend to." Adagio chuckled as she walked pass Spider. Adagio wasn't kidding she was making her way right for the stage where a band was currently singing. As Adagio made her way to the stage all the AMP and speakers started to malfunction. The band at first checking their instruments to see if there was something wrong. The men on the stage soon heard the sound of someone grabbing the microphone. Coda saw her walking onto the stage. Codas eyes suddenly flashed a deep green color as he nudged Ron. Adagio was holding the mic close to her chest as the amulet that was there was starting to glow bright. "Ron we may have a problem here." Coda said as he nearly fell over at the sight of the siren on the stage. "I hate to disrespect music but this band is absolutely terrible." Adagio said in an insulting tone of voice. "Doesn't a part deserve something more!" Adagio yelled out only to get an immediate hyped response from the crowed. "You want to fell the rush you want to feel the true power of MUSIC~!" Adagio raised her fist op as she yelled out to the crowed. "This song is just what you need. DJ hit that shit will you please baby." Adagio looked right into the eyes of Ron who was now much closer to the stage now. Ron looked at Castoke. "What happens if she sings you never told me" He grabbed Castoke by the shirt in anger. "I don't want to alarm you but tonight might be the end of our lives." Castoke said bluntly. "Come on stand up move around. Come to the sound of my voice come to the sound that allures you. The sound it vibrates the sound will take the roof down." Adagio stated to sing. "let it rain let is consume, your the ones you have the power to do what you want to do. because I don't want your sugar and spice I want to be living the high life." Adagio said as the crowed was quickly getting overtaken by her voice. She slowly started to float up in the air as she sang. "you need to get me a mic~!" Coda yelled out to castoke. "I know a lullaby I know how to calm her down." Unfortunately it appeared that the human Castoke had been thrown under her spell already. "This is the end this is the start." a back fins stared to appear on the spine of Adagio dazzle as she appeared to be turning into her true form. "Prepare yourself for your about to find out what it's like when sound fights back." Adagio suddenly busted into a bright light. as a she began to turn into her full siren form. Adagio was a rather large amphibious reptile who was now floating slightly above the stage. her golden eyes immediately locked onto the one who had broken her heart. She appeared like she was going to lunge at Ron but before she could Coda had grabbed hold of the mic. "ADAGIO DAZZLE ALPHA OF THE PACK" Coda yelled over the mic. "I told you this three hundred years ago that humans are not the enemy. I see your just as stubborn as you were then. Codas eyes turned into a green color. Adagio's large reptilian head turned towards Coda. "If it isn't the traitor of my pack dark note." > The Final Dance > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "It had come down to this. Coda aka Darknote was there to protect his human friends from the being who had but one goal. To kill the ones who had done nothing but bring her heartbreak. "Adagio, I did not betray you. You lost your own way. You got surrounded by your own self empowerment. Leave these humans alone. They don't deserve this." Coda said as he kept his serpent eyes locked onto Adagio. "Self empowerment. Sonata and Aria both knew I was the Alpha they followed my every order....That's why they are dead." Adagio charged after coda who had now turned into his full siren form. The two massive reptiles collided with Adagios maw immediately grasping around the neck of the other. Her being of alpha status made her much bigger then even a male Beta. Ron saw as his friend was under attack. "Rainbow get me the gun that's hung above the bar." Ron said as he rushed in towards Adagio. "Sweetheart let go of him." He said trying to calm the massive serpent he had once loved. Adagios massive eyes looked in Ron's direction. Her massive mouth let go of the other siren who was playing dead/ Coda hit the ground with a large thud. The lights around them were reacting to the power coming off Adagio. Her fins were making notions of anger as she looked at Ron. they were flexed to points much like a fish out of water. Her snout was now down at his level as she appeared like she could strike at any moment. Ron reached out a hand and touched her snout which made her fins flex more. Then oddly enough a whine seemed to come from Adagio as her raspberry eyes were now filled with tears as she was distracted by her now love slash sadness. "I'm sorry Adagio, I never wanted to hurt you." He said as he rubbed her massive snout. Adagios lower lip trembled as her fins were dropping down in sadness. the antennas on her head also dropping down as her saddened eyes stared at him. She was unable to see what Rainbow was getting. "T-then w-why?" Adagio uttered as she stared more intently. Her fins started to glow in a bioluminescence of red as she was slowly growing agitated again. Ron stayed calm as her got closer and hugged her snout. Adagio's Bioluminescence changed to a blue color to show she was sad. That's when Ron saw out of the corner of his eye that Castoke was fighting Rainbow for the gun. He seemed to be in a blind anger as he pulled it away pointing it right at the large serpent. Adagio's eyes looked right at Castoke, who appeared to be under some kind of mind control. Adagio let out a roar as Catoke shot off the gun. The bullet ricocheted off her large skull as she bite down on the gun and tossed the smaller person aside and into the pool. As she was about to attack him Coda came in from the side and bit her. Adagio let out a cry that made the lightbulbs around the pool overload and explode. Ron shook his head in a saddened way as he went to go see if Rainbowdash was alright. Her truly never wanted any of this to happen. Coda appeared to be having the upper hand now as he was biting increasingly hard on Adagios neck. whos eyes were filled with tears. There was a crunching sound that came from Adagio. Another cry came from her, As her whole body lit up. She let out a loud noise that plowed into coda as if it were a solid force. This knocked the serpent off of her as she slowly got up. blood was draining from her neck as she saw Ron by Rainbow. Adagio's eyes immediately shifted to red as her amulet started to turn her back to a human form. She now stood in her red dress not far from them. One hand was placed on her neck as she was still bleeding. She held out her other hand as a loud noise came from her mouth. The sound waves knocked Ron away from Rainbow. "Adagio don't~!" said a voice to her right. Adagio turned her head slowly to see the Spiderwick person. "you don't have to do this...your hurt." "They are the reason I am hurt~!" Adagio said as she was getting dizzy from the blood that was coming from her neck. "I know your pain...I too have felt betrayed. Seeking out revenge got me nowhere but more pain." Spiderwick said as she slowly tried to walk over to Adagio. "that plan may have failed for you...It isn't going to fail for me." Adagio let out a singing note as she flickered and teleported to Ron and Rainbow whom were running for the closed Canterlot high. Spiderwick started to run after them as well as Adagio was simply walking after them. Ron and Rainbow had managed to break into the School with a relentless Adagio after them. They ran till they made it to the Gym were Adagio also was. Ron saw her and he stopped running. "Adagio don't hurt her. hurt me, I'm the one who hurt you." Ron said as he moved Rainbow to be behind him. His eyes were now also filled with anger. Adagio smiled softly as she nearly fell to her knees as she was losing blood still. "I have to kill you both or one will be a reminder of the other." adagio held out her hand as she was ready to release another sound barrage. "Adagio I loved you. Why do you have to resort to this. We weren't meant for each other?" Ron said as he slowly began to walk towards her. "stay away from me. s-stay back" Adagio fell to her knees as her vision was now doubled an blurry. Adagio had no strength to hold her hand on her neck anymore. The visible bite mark was still slightly bleeding as she was running low on blood for it to spew out. "Adagio. Remember when you were in my house for the first time. Remember the time I couldn't stop looking at you?" Ron mentioned as Adagio slowly began to think back to the time. Adagio looked around as she entered the kitchen. Her vibrant eyes flaring with gleam as the light reflected off of them. Ron was bedazzled by the color and beauty contained in even just her eyes. Ron was going to try and say something but word were failing to slide off his tongue. "Who were you talking to?" Adagio questioned as she glanced at the cell phone that Ron was grasping tightly. "Hey lady I think it's none of your business... I was talking tooooo a friend." Ron raised a brow at Adagio as he was both entranced in her beauty and dumbfounded by how uncomfortable he felt around her. "Sorry, sorry, You are right I shouldn't snoop into your business." Adagio said in a rather soft voice as she began to grow slightly tired. "Maybe you should lay down, you look tired." Ron said as he noticed the tiresome look deep within Adagios eyes. "Your right, I could use a little bit of rest." Adagio said as she yawned. "Then how about you head to the spot you slept last night. I have no problem with you sleeping in my bed....as...of...right now." Ron smiled as he began to feel even more awkward about this whole situation. He didn't know why but there was a growing attraction to this lady he didn't even know. Hell he didn't even know her name. Adagio opened her eyes after remembering the time. She looked back up as her vision was still blurry. Ron was slowly getting closer to her. "I said Stay BACK~!" Adagio said as she let out a random sound in a direction she could hardly see. The sound missed Ron and Rainbow by a mile but was enough to rupture a pipeline below the gym floor which was a gas line. The gas quickly turned into a flame thrower which launched flame right up into the ceiling. The metal beams were aluminum and steel. The steel wouldn't melt anytime soon. As for the aluminum it had started to melt on the impact of the flame. Ron and Rainbow flinched as the pipeline exploded. Adagio, Ron, and rainbow would all start to run as the ceiling started to cave in. As they rushed for the outside Ron noticed Adagio was not following anymore. "Rainbow get outside I have to go back for her~!" He turned and started to run. Rainbow wanted to tell him to stay but he was already gone. Ron rushed through Flame that was now on the floor and walls around him. He made it back to the Gym as he saw Adagio had been pinned down by a beam that was half melted. Ron made it to her side and immediately tried to move the beam off her. His first attempt had little to no affect. Adagio looked at him as ash was in her hair. "Ron leave this place is going to fall apart." She reached and placed a hand on his cheek. "what about you~!" Ron yelled out. "I don't want to leave you~!" Ron started to push on the beam again. He yelled out as his muscles gave in from making no difference. Adagio slid her hand on his cheek. "I spent this whole time fighting for what I loved. W-which w-was you." her eyes were filled with tears again as she was still bleeding from her neck. "I just wanted you back......Go... Rainbow needs you more then I will." Adagio started to cry slightly as she felt se was close to her end. "I'll b-be able to h-hold my Friends again." her lower lip quivered as she closed her eyes to let tears fall. She opened them slowly once again as another explosion went off down the hall. "Adagio, don't you fucking talk like that." Ron started to push the beam again as he started to progress on getting it off of her. "Your not my girlfriend but still love you enough to not let you...Die" He managed to get the beam off of Adagio who now appeared to be losing consciousness. Ron picked her up and started to make his way out of the burning and collapsing building. He stumbled the whole way there as his own guilt and sadness started to overtake him. Ron stumbled out of the Exit and onto the grassy ground outside. He slowly and softly lowered Adagio to the ground. It was as he had feared, Adagios eyes were glazed over and cloudy. She had passed away. Ron slowly placed a kiss on her forehead as he used two fingers to close her eyes. He was the reason this had happened. He had opened her heart and crushed it. Rainbow slowly made her way over to them as Paramedics started to pick her up. Ron fought as hard as he could not wanting them to take her away. After they had got her on the stretcher The paramedics and police started to pull Ron away. The left the body on the stretcher and by itself. Two hooded girls walked up to the stretcher. One placed her purple hand on Adagios head. "such a same she had to die. Maybe that three lives thing will turn out to be real." the voice was that of Aria blaze. "Or maybe we all end up having only two." sonata said as she tried to hold back tears. "shut up you idiot and help me put her necklace back on." Aria said as she picked it up off the ground. "we have to do this, I have to know." Aria slipped the necklace around Adagio's neck In the depths of Adagios mind flashed all the hatred her amulet had gathered from the previous fight with Ron. the love she felt all her memories coming back to her as Adagio's eyes shot open.
