"That was awesome!!!! I'd never felt anything like that before! It was way different than when we normally pony-up!"
"Agreed it was quite invigorating"
"And you say we still retain that magic after the transformation?"
"Yep and each of these amulets even unlocks hidden magic abilities in our DNA...so for me it'd be my magical aura as well as my special talent for pyromancy....Dash and Pinkie for example are the fastest..."
"Um you mean I'M the fastest?"
"Hehe only one way to find out right Dashie?" Pinkie giggled with a grin.
"You challengin' me to a race Pinks?"
"Are you accepting Dash?"
"Oh this is gonna be good! I've been itching for a rematch since Freshmen year!"
"Oh this ol' debate again? For pete sake Dash can't ya just let it go?"
"No way! Theres literally no one else as fast or faster than me...except Pinkie and I could never place why...but now with this new power? It's time i took my rightful title as the fastest girl alive...So bring it pinks!"
"This would be a good way to test the extent of their powers pre-transformation and the library doesn't exactly have a race track..." Twilight pointed out.
"Alright if you two wanna do it this way who am I to stop you?" Sunset said shaking her head as Rainbow and Pinkie went out back behind the stage to prep for their race. Each girl took a starting crouch stance as they got ready to take off, Pinkie seemed to be vibrating almost and Rainbow's hair flowed with electrical energy and did the rest of her body, it even crackled in her eyes of a rainbow color hue. Sunset looked to both of them she she stood between them at the starting line. "Ten laps around the city, first one back here wins clear?" Sunset asked them both
"As crystal..."
"Ditto"
"Well if you two are ready...3....2...1..." Sunset said as she got ready to reach zero Rainbow spoke to Pinkie again and grinned.
"Try n keep up Pinks..."
"Speak for yourself...Now...Run Dashie..." Pinkie kept her eyes forward and grinned began to say as Sunset brought her arm down
"GO!" Sunset shouted
"RUN!!!!" Pinkie and Rainbow said in unison as they bolted off at super sonic speed, their different color coattails left in their wake with Rainbow constantly giving off lightning as she ran and Pinkie simply leaving behind a coattail of Pink light behind her as they zoomed and crisscrossed through the streets of Canterlot City at top speed with neither of them slowing down and trying not to let the other get ahead of the other. They zipped and zoomed through traffic and through various neighborhoods and Rainbow even managed to pass and freak out an unexpecting Gilda Gryphon whom was a member of a local street gang called the Grpyhon Stones and ran her right into the middle of the cops, completely freaking her out. Having made that little detour she got back into the race and saw that Pinkie was still running and had an big amount of sweets with her and with each one she ate she got faster, especially when she guzzled down an entire foot-long pixie stick which caused her to vibrate even faster and accelerate to a speed far exceeding Rainbow's, breaking the sound barrier and leaving her coattail behind and it even looked like streamers were coming off her as she zoomed about.
"No way! Not this time...c'mon, c'mon Rainbow you can do it feel the speed...feel the wind..." Rainbow concentrated and the rainbow color lightning around her surged more and more and her eyes opened and flashed a rainbow color light and her body vibrated and moved at such a speed that she almost instantly caught up with Pinkie after doing a ground version of the sonic rainboom and blasting past her at the last second crossing the finish line having completed the tenth and final lap with Pinkie only a nano second slower than Rainbow but she wasn't prideful like the chromatic haired girl and conceded.
"Whoa! Ya beat me Rainbow! Hahah guess you could say you did it-"
"Don-" Rainbow tried to say
"In a Dash!!" Pinkie roared with laughter and got a playful punch in the arm from Rainbow Dash.
"Yeah well now its official...Fastest Alive...but damn Pinks you're fast! Seriously all that sugar can't be good for you!"
"Actually it really helped, the more I ate the faster I got! I was like a-"
"Sugar Rush?" Twilight pointed out
"Uh-huh! Say that sounds like an ubber neat hero name!!" Pinkie said with glee
"Sugar Rush huh? I like it...."Sunset smiled crossing her arms.
"Yeah! Sugar Rush the Guardian of Laughter!" She fist pumped and felt a swell of empowerment and accomplishment.
"How about you Dash? You gonna have a name?" Applejack asked.
"Hehe what else? Call me Tempest Bolt!" Rainbow punched the air and grinned.
"I've always fancied the name Radiant Diamond, elegant yet mysterious..." Rarity chimed in
"When ah was a lil girl papa would play cowboys and robbers with me and mac hehe I was always lil Brave-heart so i guess that'll be me..."
"I'd um...Like to be called Zephyr Lotus...if that's okay...it's not a bad name is it?"
"Of course not 'Shy that's a great name!" Pinkie said
"What about you Sunset? You transformed first; did you think of a name? I'm gonna stick to Midnight Sparkle...eheh it seems appropriate you know?
"Me? Yeah actually...Phoenix Sunshine...how about you Starlight?"
"Oh um...I was thinking something along the lines of Shinning Star?
"Well it looks like we've all got our names and out costumes...now just to stretch out our powers like Dash and Pinkie have started to do and test the full function of these amulets...." Sunset began to say not noticing that hers was flashing and vibrating along with everyone else's.
"Um...Sunset, are they supposed to do that?"
"Hm? That's odd..."
"What?"
"They're only suppose to respond like this where theres dark magic around but-"
"LOOK OUT!" Vinyl shouted ducking for cover and helping the others get down quickly. They all managed to duck and dodge the massive wave of magic energy that was blasted their way and it was a loud ear piecing howl projected as different color waves of energy with a black outlined aura. One was orange, one was blue and the other was purple.
"What the fuck was that?!" Rainbow Dash barked as she got back to her feet looking around
"R-Rainbow...look!" Fluttershy was still on the ground and was scared out of her mind at what she saw descending the hill toward them and the rest of the girls looked in shock and horror at what they were all seeing.
"No way..." Rainbow Dash was in complete shock...it was them
"Holy shit..." Applejack snapped with her eyes wide, she never thought she'd see them again
"Oh my lord...what happened to them?!" Rarity was in complete aghast
"Whoa theeeeeeeey look pissed..." Pinkie frowned and her pupils shrunk, she always wondered what happened to them but this was unreal almost.
"Who on earth are they?!" Twilight and Starlight asked in confusion.
"Impossible...we thought you were..." Sunset couldn't believe it...after a whole year and a half they finally showed up again in the worst way she had feared.
"Hello Rainbooms..." The being formerly known as Sonata Dusk spoke with a sinisterly gleeful smile and feral look in her eyes. "Weeeeeee're baaaaaaaaack!"
"Long time no see losers..." The being formerly known as Aria Blaze spat with a dark scowl on her face and her arms cross over her chest.
"Remember us do you? Did you miss us? Because we missed you....hmhmhm...I especially YOU...little pony..." The being formerly known as Adagio Dazzle snarled with a deviously haughty and evil sneer as she licked her now blackened lips and eyed down Sunset Shimmer.
"A-Adagio? Aria? Sonata? By Celestia...what...What happened to you!?" Sunset bellowed at them and the being formerly known as Adagio laughed.
"Adagio? Haahahahahahhahaha! That pathetic worthless little bag of flesh is gone...No my sweet little pony...my name...is Crescendo Wrath..." Cresendo hummed deviously eyeing down her target again. The whites of her eyes were now black and her once ruby red eyes were blood red and full of hate. Her amber and yellow hair was now bloody red and jet black and she wore a dominatrix like outfit but it looked like armor as well and a sword rested on her hip and upon her hand she wore spiked nail extensions that looked like gold claws with chains on them. Hr body had changed a lot too as she looked far more woman like with her chest grown out and her hips given more definition and the outfit she wore only hugged her body tighter to add to her appeal.
"And I'm not that little bitch Aria...the names Ballad Fury, remember it well bitches!" Ballad spat and narrowed her blackened eyes in contempt for the girls in front of her. Her once purple and green hair was now black and green and was no longer in pigtails but let to flow down her back. She was wearing a black cloak but underneath that she wore battle armor that looked skeletal and demonic with twin scythes attached by chains on her hips.
"And I'm not that dopey little retard Sonata...Nah; you can just call me Melody Malice...nice ta meet cha! Hope to kill ya soon too hehehehe!" Melody giggled insanely and bounced on her heels and clapped in physcotic glee.She had on armor that was cyborg like in nature but fit like a second skin and it was blue and black and revealed a quite a bit of skin and she had a long black scarf around her neck and an axe rested on her back and the blade was covered in magic symbols.
"And we're no longer those worthless and powerless 'Dazzlings' or even weak and feeble sirens...No...We are Banshee...We are The Requiems...and do you know what that means?" Crescendo asked
"We're the end of you!" Ballad hissed
"And we're gonna kill you dead for the darkness!! Doesn't that sound like fun!?!" Melody asked with a twisted smile
"Oh it does Melody dear sister...so you know what? Let's not keep them waiting ladies...master won't be happy if we take too long..." Crescendo said with a grin and lick of her lips as her grip on her sword tightened.
"I've been waitin' a long time for this...get ready bitches! Time for a rematch!" Ballad howled with a angry scowl and gripped her weapons at her hips and got ready to attack.
"Time to play a game of death! Spoiler alert! You lose!!! ehhehehehehhehe this is gonna be so much fun! For us I mean, for you this is gonna be super duper painful!" Melody said laughing evilly.
"Alright, you want a rematch? We'll give you a rematch! Ready girls?!" Rainbow said helping Fluttershy stand up and hardened her resolve and nodded and the other girls did the same and they all joined together on stage lined up in direct opposition to the Banshee's. "Heh dunno if you noticed but you seriously outnumbered..." Rainbow said with her arms crossed.
"Hm oh you're right Dashie...hmmm gee golly gosh; whatever shall we do Cree?! Melody pretended to be alarmed.
"Tch yeah sis, whatever will we do to even the odds?" Ballad rolled her eyes.
"Hm...choices...choices..." she'd tap a finger to her chin and strut down the hill toward the stage getting closer to the girls and stopped about half way and snapped her fingers. "Oh! I know...they wanna fight with friends? We just bring in friends of our own" Crescendo said grinning as she showed her teeth. "How about a little song girls?" She said as she began to hum a melody and her sisters joined in and it was a demonic and sinister sounding tune and from the ground an inky blackness would rise and take the form of deformed black crystal like monsters who were about the same height as the rainbooms and they all brandished different types of stabbing and blunt weapons.
"Raingoons; meet the wraiths, our little friends...hope you don't mind that we invited a few extra to this little party..." Crescendo said with a haughty sneer.
"Pft invite as many as you want, the more the better we look kickin' their butts!" Pinkie said pounding a fist into her palm.
"Well said Pinkie...I dunno what kinda evil took you three...but it's clear to me your far gone...so it looks like your gonna be the first magic scum we take out with these new powers...pity...we looked for you...tried to find and help you...show you a better way but somehow you eluded us despite my best efforts..." Sunset kept her voice even and she sighed and looked at the woman who'd once been Adagio Dazzle felt her heart ache a little. "Shame...we could've been friends..." Sunset said shaking her head.
"Friends? With you? AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! After what you did to us?! NEVER! I'm going to enjoy hear every last delightful scream you girls make as we beat the life out of you and then hearing the combined chorus of your deaths when we hand you over to our master...mmmmm I'm getting moist just thinking about it!" Crescendo hummed deviously as she spoke of and thought of the unspeakable things she and her sisters would do to the rainbooms, feeling herself up as she did so and the whole time her gaze was locked on Sunset. "And I'll take special pleasure in making you adore me before I end your life little pony...master promised if I was a good girl I could have you after he has your light...and I can't wait!" Crescendo hissed and snapped her jaw at Sunset.
"Hmph...don't flatter yourself Crescendo, I'm spoken for and your not my type..." Sunset affirmed by grabbing Twilight and pulling her close by the hip and Twilight nodded and pushed up her glasses to affirm her point.
"Yeah! She's my little pony, get your own!" Twilight bellowed, she'd not have anyone trying to take her Sunny away from her.
"D'awwwwwww ain't that sweet? The wittle dweeb is in wuv! How sick...blech" Ballad gagged
"Hehehe I hope Cree fucks your little face off in front of your precious little geek and kills you in front of her! I'd totally post that on My-Stable! oooh hehehhehe even better! She can fuck little sun-tits up there and you and me can take the little twerp and she her some real fun eh? eh whatdya say Balli?" Melody nudged her sister and looked at her with smoldering eyes
"Tch you know I don't like to share you Meli..." Ballad said almost sweetly to Melody and smirked at her as she came closer to her and pinched her nipple through her armor causing her to squeal. "But if it means putting the cunts who ruined our lives in their place? Sure...I get to wreck her first though..."
"Hehehe thats okie dokie lokie..."
"HEY THATS MY LINE!" Pinkie bellowed.
"Eat my fucking twat you pink sugar ball!" Melody shrieked
"My word! Such language!" Rarity yelled.
"ENOUGH!" Sunset snapped. "No one is raping anyone and you three aren't gonna hurt anyone! This ends right here! Vinyl, get someplace safe...Girls?! Pony-up!"
"Right!"
Touching their amulets they'd power them up and speak their command spell. "SHINE LIGHT SHINE, FRIENDSHIP...HARMONIZE!" Their cutie marks appeared and enveloped them in light and they underwent their transformation and when they stepped out they all posed in position together as their powers came out in full and Spike towered behind them but enough to where he wasn't overly huge since his amulet allowed him to also control his size.
"Element of Forgiveness: Phoenix Sunshine!"

"Element of Magic: Midnight Sparkle!"
"Element of Hope: Shinning Star!"
Element of Laughter Sugar Rush!"
"Element of Loyalty Tempest Bolt!"
"Element of Honesty Brave-Heart!"
"Element of Kindness Zephyr Lotus!"
"Element of Generosity Radiant Diamond!"
*Spike roared a dragons loud roar and a plume of green fire shot out*
"Get ready to taste the rainbow motherfuckers!"
"Rainbow!" Rarity chastised.
"What? I've always wanted to say that!"
"Boooo! Lame!!!" Melody bellowed
"Up yours you twisted freak!" Rainbow flipped of Melody
"While this little light show and comedy act is fun...let's get to the real dance shall we? And just to make sure no on gets in our way..." Crescendo whipped put her sword which doubled as a chain like whip blade and lashed it around the surrounding area creating a magic barrier that kept outside forces out and gave the illusion that all was normal.
"This little auditorium ought to keep out any peeping toms and peaking patty's...now the little pony....shall we dance?!" She pointed her blade at Sunset.
"Let's rock Rainbooms!" Sunset shouted as she jumped into the fray of battle with her friends in toe for round two against the Dazzlings and their new found darkness.
"Darkness shall reign!" The Requiems bellowed charging forward with their small army ready to clash with their mortal rivals.
