Hot Times At Canterlot High

2 Weeks Later...

Sonata awoke from the couch and stretched. She looked at her body and realized that she was still in her show outfit. She let out a yawn and got up, walking to the bedroom door and slowly opening it. She then slowly peeked inside to see Adagio asleep with Aria sleeping atop her, both naked. Sonata then eyed their wardrobe and slowly crept in, tiptoeing to avoid awaking them.

She was so close to the wardrobe when she tripped over their clothes, hitting the floor with a thud. Both girls in the bed sat up, Aria hugging Adagio, looking over her own shoulder at Sonata.

The blue girl chuckled nervously. "Oops... Sorry..."

"What are you doing?" Adagio snapped tiredly, letting out a yawn afterwards.

"Just needed to get some clothes..." Sonata said, standing up and opening the wardrobe.

"Couldn't you have waited till we were a-a-a-awake?" Aria asked with a yawn.

"Well, I wanted to head out early," Sonata explained, pulling out her school clothes and closing the doors.

Adagio raised an eyebrow. "Your school clothes?"

Aria scoffed. "Don't tell me you're going back there..."

Sonata gripped her clothes a little more tightly. "I am..." she said, sounding nervous as she headed towards the bathroom.

"They won't a-a-accept you..." Aria called with a yawn.

~~~~~~

Sonata closed the bathroom door and walked up to the shower.

"It'll be fine..." she told herself with a nervous laugh. "I'll just go in and... apologize..." she said, turning the water on and testing it. "Oh, but what if they don't talk to me? What if they give me looks when they see me?" Sonata thought aloud. holding her cheeks. She then eyed the faucet and felt the water, smiling. "Oh, well..." she said, before undressing and hoping into the shower. "I'll just try really hard," she said with determination as she swiped the shampoo. She then remembered being up on stage after their defeat, and sighed. "Who am I kidding... They probably all hate me..."

After a few more minutes, Sonata finished her shower and stepped out, wrapping herself in a towel and sitting on the toilet lid, thinking.

~~~~~~

The bus pulled up to the school in the early morning and the doors opened, letting off its passengers.

"Why does school have to start so early?" asked Dash, yawning as her and her other five friends followed her off the bus.

"What's wrong, Dash?" asked Applejack. "Didn't get enough sleep last night?"

"Actually, no. I didn't. I was up practicing a new song I wrote."

"A new song, huh?" asked Rarity as the girls stood near the statue.

"Is it about how awesome you are?" asked AJ, raising an eyebrow.

Dash turned to look at her, ready to say something as the bus drove off. Dash then saw something and closed her mouth. "Uh... girls?" she said, pointing across the street.

All the girls turned to look, gasping softly. Standing there, across the street, was Sonata, holding her arm nervously as she watched them.

"What does she want?" asked Pinkie Pie.

"Ah dunno girls..." said Applejack. "Where are the other two?"

Sunset Shimmer thought for a moment before stepping up. "I'll go talk to her..."

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Rarity asked with concern, eyeing the ex-siren across the street.

Sunset Shimmer hesitated before turning around to face them. "I made mistakes, too, remember? I tried to take over this school once... And, you still accepted me as a friend... She's just like me..." she said, looking back at Sonata. "Maybe we should giver her a chance, too..."

The other five looked at each other before nodding.

"I see your point..." Rarity said, smiling lightly.

~~~~~~

Sonata began to pace back and forth, nervously twirling the right drawstring on her hoodie. "What am I doing? This is crazy..." she muttered. "I can't do this..."

She turned to leave when a voice made her stop. "Hey, wait!"

Sonata turned to see Sunset Shimmer running across the street towards her, making her gulp nervously.

The orange girl slowed down before standing on the sidewalk near Sonata. "Hey," she said, giving a quick wave of her hand.

Sonata slowly raised a hand and smiled lightly. "Hey..."

"What are you doing here?" asked Sunset, sounding confused as she looked around. "And where are those other two?"

"They're not here... Just me," the ex-siren said with a nervous chuckle.

Shimmer eyed her before smiling. "Sunset Shimmer," she said, holding out a hand.

The blue girl eyed it before hesitantly taking it, smiling. "Sonata... Sonata Dusk..."

Sunset shook her hand briefly before letting go. "So, why are you here?"

Sonata eyed the ground. "I, uh... wanted to... apologize..." she muttered, getting softer and softer.

"Sorry, what was that?"

"I said I wanted to apolo...

"Didn't quite catch that..."

Sonata sighed. "Apologize..."

Sunset hesitated before smiling. "Come on..." she said, holding out her hand. "I'm sure the others would love to hear that."

The blue girl eyed Sunset's hand, then the girls across the street, and then Sunset. "A-Alright..." she said, finally taking the girl's hand.

Sunset smiled and began leading her across the street and towards the others, all keeping on their toes in case this ex-siren tried anything funny.

"This here's Sonata Dusk," said Sunset with a smile. "She has something she'd like to say."

Sonata nervously waved. "Hello..."

The girls waved back. "Hello," said Pinkie cheerfully.

Sonata eyed Sunset, who nodded, before looking at the others. "I just... wanted to say... that... I-I... I'm sorry for what I did..." the girl finally apologized, looking away. "It's just... I never knew friendship before seeing you girls last night..."

Rarity thought for a second. "What about those other two?"

"Adagio and Aria?" asked Sonata. "They're... fine, and all, but... It's not the same..."

Suddenly the statue portal began to hum, drawing all the girls' attention.

"Twilight?" Fluttershy thought aloud.
