Sonata sighed happily to herself, as she made her way into the cafeteria. It was her favorite day of the week, Taco Tuesday. And what was even better she and the other sirens were still allowed to attend school! Just as long as they didn't try and take over the world again. As she grabbed her tray and began to go down the line, she was surprised as a certain red and yellow girl came up to her smiling.
"Hey Sonata, what's up?" Sunset Shimmer greeted, grabbing a tray.
She was surprised by the warm hello, but returned the smile given, "Oh, hi Sunset Shimmy!"
"It's Shimmer," She smirked a bit.
Sonata shrugged, "Eh, tamato potahto,"
The former equestrian giggled, making her face turn red.
"So, no hard feelings right?" Sonata asked, clearing out her throat.
"Of course! I think more or less everyone's forgotten about the whole incident," She said, "And besides, you and the other Dazzlings aren't really that bad."
"Yeah, though Aria can be a bit of a meanie," She pouted, though that escaped her face as she saw all the tacos before her. Grinning like a mad man, she began piling her tray with at least half of the tacos they had, with a few sauce packets as well.
Sunset's eyes went wide, "You sure you'll be able to eat all that?" She pointed to the leaning tower of tacos.
"You bet I'm sure!" She stopped a moment to open a packet for a taste, before it all got on the chest of a certain guitar player. And he looked pissed.
Sonata cowered under his glare, smiling nervously, "Ehehe...oopsies?"
Flash growled, "Watch it siren shit," He scowled at her, storming away,
Sunset frowned, "Don't listen to that asshat, he's just bitter cause he doesn't have his princess Twilight anymore," She rolled her eyes.
"Are you sure? He could still be mad at me and the other Dazzlings..." She suggested, "Not everybody can just forget so easily,"
She chuckled, playfully punching her in the shoulder, "You bet I'm sure,"
Sonata cheered up, giggling with Sunset as they walked to their lunch table.
"So, who do you think is a better wonderbolt? Soarin, Fleet-foot or Spitfire?"
Aria rolled her eyes, "Fleet-foot obviously, she's got a flashy way of racing but isn't as overly proud like Spitfire but more cocky than Soarin,"
Rainbow Dash was stunned, "No way! Spitfire is totally the better of the three! She's awesome, fast and cool, just like me," She winked almost seductively at the siren. Her purple face turn pink and she quickly looked away.
"Yeah right Rainbow Crash," She growled, scowling as she looked away.
The guitarist's fast turned red at the nickname, failing at words as she just huffed and crossed her arms. She looked up from the table, seeing Sunset Shimmer and Sonata were still standing with their trays, chatting and giggling like two love sick puppies yipping. She rolled her eyes at this, "Gosh, won't they ask eachother out already?" She groaned out loud.
The others looked in the direction of the oblivious girls.
"They'd make an adorable couple!" Rarity exclaimed.
Fluttershy nodded, "Sonata is a very good pick for Sunset Shimmer..."
"I'm surprised that dolt hasn't asked her yet," The violet siren muttered, pushing her hair out of her vision a bit.
"She's not a dolt, just a bit of a ditzy doo," AJ said.
Adagio rose a brow, "You kidding? Even Ditzy is a smarter girl than her!"
The pink haired girl beside her placed a hand on her shoulder, "Now now Adaigio, you shouldn't pick on Sonata for not being the smartest girl..." Fluttershy said softly.
"But-!" Her face went from pink to red, both embarrassed and frustrated but even a little something else that made her spine tingle.
She received a harsh look, "No buts," She spoke sternly though still was not very threatening.
Adagio stumbled over her words, she eventually just crossed her arms and looked away with a big puppy dog pout on her face.
Pinkie Pie wasn't paying much attention, too busy eating what seemed like a literal ton of the school's pudding. Looking around the chocolaty mound, she grinned, "We should totally try getting them together!" She suggested.
They all looked at her, "You serious Pinkie? You know it never works when people do this match making stuff, do you not remember the catastrophe caused by the cutie mark crusaders after the whole Cheerimac fiasco?" Rarity asked nervously.
"I do I do!" She nodded her head, "But what if instead of setting it up ourselves we 'suggest' they do something romantic for eachother?" She smirked, her eyebrows jumping up and down.
"Pfft, as if that's gonna work," Aria rolled her eyes.
RD nodded, "I gotta agree with grumpy grape here, you're not the best persuader Pink,"
All the others nodded in agreement.
"Ugh, you guys just don't believe in the amazingness of Match Maker Pinkamina Diane Pie!"
"So then I asked the diamond dogs what they got on their test, and guess what they said?"
"What?"
"'We got all D's!'" Sonata giggled at her own joke, which wasn't very good in all honesty but still the joke couldn't have been told any better by anyone else.
Both of them giggled as they made their way to the table, when a leg stuck out from beneath Sonata and Sunset Shimmer, tripping them both. They're food went flying into the air, and they crashed onto the tile very hard with an audible smack. The cyan siren looked up, seeing Flash Sentry and his pals standing over them, smiling mockingly at them.
"Oopsies," He mimicked, getting some giggles from the others.
She growled at their laughter, standing up and kicking them hard in the nuts.
Sonata expected Sunset to already be up on her feet, but she was still on the floor groaning. A gasp escaped her lips and she turned red with rage.
"NO ONE HURTS MY SUNSET SHIMMY LIKE THAT!" She roared, beginning to beat them senselessly. She was blind with pure rage, and it took the Rainbooms and Dazzlings all together to hold her down even just a bit.
"Calm down Sonata!" Aria exclaimed, trying to pull her away from Flash who's blue hair was beginning to turn red with blood and his tan skin purple as he surprisingly bruised easily.
"Come on Sonny girl! Pull yourself together!" AJ bit her lip as she threw her back, making her stumble and fall onto Sunset.
A loud scream filled their ears followed by soft sobs.
Sonata quickly got to her feet and picked her up by the shoulders, not struggling at all with her weight, "Yo Pinkie Pie! Help me would ya?" She frowned.
The eccentric rainboom saluted and bounced over, grabbing Sunset's legs as she began leading the way to the nurse's office. "GIRL DOWN EVERYONE! OUT OF THE WAY OUT OF THE WAY!" She exclaimed as they pushed passed taller boys and girls.
Fluttershy looked ready to cry, "Oh god, I hope Sunset'll be okay..."
Adagio lightly placed a hand on her shoulder, "Hey, relax Flutters, everything will be fine..." A blue grew on her face as she found the girl had began hugging her rather tightly. She returned it gently.
The three toughest of them all however decided to finish was Sonata started; with Rainbow Dash mushing their disks under her cleats, Aria ripping their scalps off of their heads and Applejack breaking every joint they had in their bones. Of course this didn't last long as quickly the three of them, Flash Sentry and his pals were set to the office, glaring at eachother on their way to see Vice Principle Luna.
Soon, Sunset was safe and sound at the nurse's office, with an ice packet on her head and a bunch of pillows under her back. Sonata and Pinkie stayed closed to her bed, almost like two security guards as they pulled back the curtains to give her some privacy. As Pinkie Pie kept watch with a pair of silly shades to make her appear intimidating, the cyan siren knelt beside her bed.
"Hey Shimmy, how're ya feeling?" She said softly, smiling at the bacon head girl.
She frowned, getting no response except for weak groans and wines.
Nurse Redheart walked over, "Sunset Shimmer will need an hour or two to heal, she's got a bit of a concussion and it seems that something might have weighed down on her cause her spine was almost shattered!" She exclaimed.
Sonata had a wave of blush cover her blue face, feeling awfully that her stupid ass almost shattered her backbone.
The older woman was about to speak till she heard a conversation from the other side of the curtains.
"Maud! What're you doing here? Did you break your arm or burn yourself in science class?!"
They both decided to take a peak at the two Pie sisters.
She shook her head, holding out her rock, "Boulder got a cut," There was barely a dent on the surface, though you could faintly see a mark.
Redheart rose a brow, continuing to watch the strangeness before her while Sonata returned to her special Sunny's side.
"Can I stay here till she's better?" Sonata Dusk begged, giving her big puppy dog eyes.
She groaned, "Fine, just don't try moving her or anything-" She was cut off her beginning set of rules, as the magenta eyed girl rested her head upon Sunset Shimmer's chest, taking a little nap on her. Redheart face palmed, growling as when she moved away from the hospital curtains seeing her office was a mess, with everything covered in stray bandages and gauze from head to toe. Even the two girls had gotten covered in the mess caused by Pinkie, though most of the band aids just got caught in her hair.
Her blue eyes twitched, seeing this mess was all for a stupid kiddie bandage with ice cream on it. And it was on that stupid rock.
"Thank you Pinkie Pie," Maud said in a perfect monotone.
She was given a bright grin in response, and just stared as the nurse proceeding to chase Pinkie out of her room like an angry bull.
"Do you six realize the punishment you would be getting if I weren't as...generous as I can be," Luna scowled at them, as they sat before her desk. Flash and the two other boys in his band were nothing but blood, bruises and broken bones at this point, having taken quite a beating from AJ, the Skittle hair girl and reformed Siren. They had a few faint bruises, but nothing in comparison to theirs.
"We're truly very sorry Luna ma'am, it's just that these jackasses hurt two of our dear friends we just couldn't control ourselves..." Applejack frowned, fiddling with her hat in her lap.
Flash stood quickly, pointing a finger towards the girls, "Their freakish friend Sonata Dick or whatever that damn freak's name had almost made me trip earlier that day!"
RD rolled her eyes, "Dusky only spilled her sauce on your shirt, it never even reached the floor to make you trip at all,"
"Yeah, that ditz may have tried taking over the world with us but she'd never do normal evil things on purpose," Aria said.
Luna sighed, "Students, please, quiet down for a mo-" The door was slammed open, Pinkie Pie running in panting heavily.
"GIRLS! Take these, I have got the best idea in the UNIVERSE."
They all were silent, blinking dumbly.
The blue eyed party girl rolled her eyes, groaning loudly as she forced herself to put little party hats on their heads, even on Luna who was still too stunned to react. She grabbed their thin hands and dragged them out of the office, sprinting back to where she came from. They passed by a closet, to which the still frustrated nurse was locked up inside, pounding on the door. Once they were at the nurse's, she had them wait in front of the hospital curtains, where a loud muffled snoring could be heard coming from the other side.
"Wait here, I gotta get the others," Pinkie winked at them, before bouncing up and dashing off like a road runner.
They looked at eachother and shrugged.
"Now now you little rascal, let go of Adagio's arm,"
Fluttershy tried coaxing the puppy retriever, as he gnawed on the helpless Siren's arm. She bit her lip hard, trying her best not to cry in front of her or Rarity, who was on the other side of the room tending to the cute little kittens with specially made hats and gloves that they continued to try and shake off.
She sighed in defeat, as most but luckily not all of the kittens tried getting their accessories off, "You got me beat..." She looked over seeing the butter skinned girls struggling with a certain sharped tooth puppy.
"Oh Goldie~" She whistled, wagging a bone over his head before tossing it across the room. He gladly chased after it, yipping happily.
Adagio sighed in relief, as Fluttershy went to get her some bandages for the bite marks, "Thanks Rare,"
"No problem dear, though maybe you outta try not playing with Goldie for a while," She chuckled as the retriever quickly began fighting over the bone with another mutt.
Both girls giggled lightly, though stopped as Pinkie suddenly ran in, strapping very stylish party hats on their heads and throwing one to Fluttershy. Not saying a word, she just ran to the nurse's office, to which all three girls responded by chasing after and asking many, many questions.
"So, why're we here again Pinkie Pie?" Rainbow Dash rose a brow as now the whole group was there.
She put a finger to her lips and shushed loudly, mimicking Nurse Redheart as she pulled back the hospital curtains
They all collectively whispered their awes at what they saw.
Sunset Shimmer had her arms wrapped weakly around the cyan siren, who was cuddling on top of her like a teddybear. While Sonata was snoring loudly, the wounded girl's breathing was shallow and it was almost barely audible.
They began to wake a little, looking up with bright red cheeks. "W-What?" Shimmy rose a brow, her voice weak and soft.
"Nothing darling," Rarity snickered, clearing her throat out.
Pinkie Pie suddenly jumped up, blasting confetti from almost thin air and handing her a child like draying of them all together with crayon and some gooey stuff.
"Get better Sunset Shimmer!" She squealed, as she stuffed the drawing into the bacon haired girl's face.
A little of the gooey stuff got on her nose.
Sonata sniffed it a little, getting a taste.
The others looked at her as though she was crazy.
"What? It's just frosting!"
