Canterlot City National Park; Wedding Ceremonial Hall

The deed was done, dazzle and shimmer had united as one under the setting sun and were both happily in love. The two walked arm in arm smiling like lovestruck school girls to one another and everyone else who were taking pictures and giving their congratulations. Coming into the grand hall usually reserved for balls, gala's and big celebrations it was decked out from head to toe in colors befitting of the two lovers masterfully by the princess of parties Pinkie Pie and her dimensional pony counterpart who'd made the process go doubly fast since they'd both brought their party cannons, something that worried many of the local authorities but they were quickly reassured when they saw Pinkie had all the right permits and that her cannon was tested non-lethal so long as she didn't load it with fireworks. The reception area was layered with gifts from friends and family and already the music was being put out by their close friend DJ Pon-3 aka Vinyl Scratch along with special guests Countess Coloratura aka Rara whom was invited by Applejack of all people! As the DJ hit her turntables she picked up the mic and proclaimed.

"C'mon everyone!! Lemme see you s-s-s-s-shake it!!!!" Vinyl said going in tune with the wubs coming from her sound systems.

Much to the surprise of many Applejack and Rara were childhood best friends having gone to the same camp together for about three years when Applejack was a little girl before her parents died. Rara had moved away after that time to Manehatten and started off her music career following the path her parents had set out for her and had stuck her with a sleazy and abusive manager but that all quickly changed when she had a reunion with Applejack a few years back and the farmer quickly saw that Rara needed a change of pace and so with a little magic of friendship cunning and good ol' fashion intimidation and blackmail via Adagio? That sleazy Svengallop was forced to let Rara go and many music industry managers who were far less sleazy were happy to pick the girl up; as Adagio understood the situation now? Rara was far more popular now that she wasn't doing stupid publicity stunts, doing whatever her manager told her was 'right' or 'hip', wrote and composed her own music, and as a favor had all her clothes now custom designed by none other than Canterlot City's resident master seamstress Rarity.

Over the past few months since Sunset had gotten engaged to Adagio Rara had been on tour and she had made it back just in time for their wedding to guest star as a musical guest. Adagio and Rara were actually quite good friends since they had similar tastes in music, romance and the like as well as the fact that Adagio ADORED the girls singing voice finding it truly lovely and often praising the girl on her talent telling her that she truly does have a gift for music which is why she was so determined to help get her away from that sleazy of a manager because her potential and her gift was being wasted and Adagio took such things VERY personally. She hated to see potential wasted, to see talents and gifts misused; she had done so with her magic and her voice and she made a promise to herself that she would never let anyone else do the same if she could help it. However right now? All Adagio wanted to do was help herself to some of that sweet delicious mouth watering red velvet ice cream cake that was sitting on the table over there!!

Dragging Sunset along toward the table which held the big cake they were quickly stopped and ambushed with a barrage of hugs by their friends and family; mainly the rainbooms, the other sirens and Princess' Celestia and Twilight. Each one of them was incredibly happy for the two newlyweds and so proud of how far the two had come that they just couldn't wait a moment longer to just let all their emotions out before they all went to go have fun. Of course the award of most enthusiastic was a tie between Pinkie Pie and Sonata Dusk both of which had each wife wrapped in a spine cracking hug.

"I'M SOOOOO HAPPY YOU TWO FINALLY TIED THE KNOT!!" Pinkie exclaimed crying out happily as she Ursa hugged Sunset Shimmer.

"FOR REALIES! THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL DAGI!!" Sonata wept happily hugging her big sister.

"Gyah t-thanks girl a-a-and while we ugh appreciate all the extra love; we'd like to live to eat our wedding cake!" Sunset said struggling to breath knowing it was futile to escape Pinkie's hugs by this point in her life.

"S-Same here! S-So please....Nata? Let me go before I yank your ponytail!" Adagio threatened; that was the equivalent to pulling on ones fins or gills back in Equestria when they had their siren bodies which for some hurt like Hell...for Adagio? She got off on it in this world because she had so much damn hair and Sunset just LOVED pulling it and she couldn't wait for them to get to their hotel honeymoon suite in Las Pegasus and just go crazy!

It was that threat that made Sonata release her and eventually Pinkie released Sunset Shimmer whom gasped for breath and then afterwards straightened out her dress as everyone shared a little laugh.

"So how does it feel darling? To finally have it be official? Oooh that ceremony was just divine! I can only hope I have such a powerful marriage in the future." Rarity said with a wistful sigh and smile as she imagined how her own marriage would go and if it would be anywhere near as grand as this one.

"It's the greatest feeling I've ever felt and over the centuries I have felt many a feeling Rare. Trust me when I say whenever you find your prince or princess charming? No matter how grand the ceremony is; it'll be the greatest moment of your life." Adagio said with a smile as she took Sunset's hand in her own and blushed.

"You two are just adorable together! I really am just so happy for you both" Fluttershy said with her usual kind smile and a few tears as she wiped them away.

"And very romantic choice picking 'the magic hour' to get married" Sci-Twi stated with a smirk at Sunset nudging her with an elbow. "Clever pony"

"Always have been and will remain to be" Sunset said with a cheeky smirk and wink at the geek. "Speaking of romance; hows things with you Twi? I didn't see you come with a date." Sunset asked in a bit of a worrying manner seeing that Sci-Twi hadn't come with anyone around her arm. Sure she came with her friends and none of them had a date with the exception of Rainbow and Fluttershy being together but she really did wish the bookworm would find someone having not dated anyone since Timber Spruce broke up with her after High School.

Sci-Twi retreated into herself a little and pulled at her ponytail and blushed sheepishly but not in the normal 'Oh don't worry about it' kind of way. No this was more like 'Oh funny you should mention that' kind of blush and Sunset was capable of reading Twilight no matter what version of her it was like a book.

"Oooh I know that look...That's the same look you had on your face back at camp Everfree; So c'mon...spill, who is it?" Sunset asked putting Sci-Twi on the spot a little.

"Yeah Dorky, who has you blushing pink? Promise I'll get them over here and wrapped around your little finger, just point 'em out." Adagio said with equal tease as she smiled and looked around the room for whoever it may be that Twilight Sparkle was interested in. She found it quite the shame that the young genius found herself so alone even though she had so many friends and sought to correct this however the girl had seemed insistent that she wanted to find someone herself and Adagio respected that however right now? She was being a bit selfish and generous at the same time.

"W-Well um you see uh its a bit um...well I mean uh-" Sci-Twi fumbled with her words as she was unsure how to phrase what she was trying to say as it was pretty embarrassing and she didn't want anyone to judge her even though she knew that was silly considering who she was talking to but Sunset knew Twilight had that insecurity and was very patient with her about it.

"It's alright Twi, you don't gotta tell us if you don't want to. We just want you to be happy" Sunset said with a kind smile and brought an arm around her friend.

Sci-Twi continued to blush and knew Sunset was right. The truth was she did have someone she was interested in and she did want to invite them here however there was a small if not big problem with that on top of the fact that the girl was about as socially awkward as she was. Turning to Sunset she would whisper the name of who it was in the girls ear and hoped and prayed she wouldn't freak out. After she had taken a few seconds to process what she'd said Sunset blushed and then her eyes darted to Twilight as all the gears began to turn in her head.

"Oh...Oh...OOOOOOOH...Okay. That...That makes a lot of sense. Ehehe well um...All I can say is? Go for it if that's what you want Twi and you already know I'd approve" Sunset said with a chuckle having not expected THAT of all things to crop up during her wedding of all things but her life was one giant surprise so she was ready for most anything nowadays anyway. Adagio looked understandably confused and when Sunset quickly told her? Adagio instantly understood and laughed.

"Ahahahah oh goodness irony is really a bitch I swear to Celestia" Adagio chuckled and held her side for a moment after hearing what her wife just told her and it only got worse after she realized that she just swore to Celestia whom was standing right there.

"I still can't believe pony's actually do that; they DO know I'm not actually a God right?" Celestia said with mock pout.

"Oh come now Sun-Butt don't spoil the moment" Adagio said using Celestia's most common nickname and one that playfully annoyed Celestia to no end especially when used by the likes of Adagio or Discord. Seeing Celestia flustered was always a treat to see since the princess had a very good poker face and often kept her emotions in check, however since Adagio and her sister had history? She always got under the sun princess' skin.

"Oh hush you; anyway I too am very glad for you both, that was truly a wonderful ceremony." Celestia said with equal tease in her tone as she'd gotten used to the sirens teasing again by now.

"Thanks Celestia, I'm so happy you decided to come...Oh um did you bring 'them'?" Sunset asked hopefully to her mentor and was excited when the Sun princess nodded and made a gesture to the group of whom Sunset spoke of from Adagio and the other sirens past. With a smile she tugged at Adagio to get her attention. "Hey Dagi, Celestia has a few people she'd like to reintroduce you to!" Sunset was also incredibly giddy because she was about to meet them for the first time herself and the anticipation was killing her.

"Oh? and who might that b-" Adagio began to say and then saw whom they were talking about and she felt her face light up with a few different emotions most of all shock.

"Greetings Adagio Dazzle; It's well um...been quite some time since we've seen each other last yes?" Strawswirl the breaded stated in his old grizzled wise voice as he stood before Adagio dazzle clad in a blue and silver tux and top hat that matched his star motif. He also stood with a cane and he looked quite older than when she last saw him as expected. But how?! It's been over 1000 years!

How overpowered are these pony's?

However it wasn't just Starswirl; it was all of them! All six of the pillars of Equestria that had stopped her and her sisters all those centuries ago in Equestria when they were at the peak of the chaotic magical rampage across the land. Each of them had aged however their features remained mostly the same. From left to right it was Starswirl, Rock Hoof, Flash Magnus , Somnambula, Mist Mane and Mage Meadow Brook minus her iconic mask; all of them dressed in formal wear and looking both apprehensive and or excited to see the Dazzlings again. When Aria and Sonata saw them after Adagio their reactions were about as priceless as Adagio's was especially since back in the time when they had fought the pillars they were the ones who had taken the most damage fighting them especially Aria who may have held a wee grudge against the mighty Rock Hoof.

"Well I'll be boiled in hot water and served on a fucking platter! Starswirl you grizzled old bastard!" Adagio exclaimed in surprised. "And the rest of you are here as well hm? You've all aged rather gracefully especially you Mist Mane...well as gracefully as you can." Adagio said with a venomous sneer that was very close to one she'd used when she was evil; she had only ever DREAMED she'd see them again and this scenario was just too good to not throw just a little shade.

"Wowie!!! We haven't seen you all in like...FOREVER!" Sonata said just as surprised as Adagio unsure to be mad or happy they were here. She never really wanted to fight them back in Equestria but Adagio had told her any pony who stood in the way of their feeding was to be destroyed so she listened but she truly held nothing against them. This world gave her tacos!

"LEMME AT 'EM!!!!" Aria lunged but was quickly snatched by the back of her dress and sat down by Adagio who grinned at the pillars like a madwoman as she kept a grip on her sister but was very much tempted to let her go. " JUST LET ME BODY SLAM THE BIG GUY! HE HIT ME WITH A FUCKING BOULDER!" Aria roared as she attempted to claw at Rock Hoof furiously like an angry cat.

The lumbering earth pony turned hulking man had taken a few steps back even though he'd brought along his mighty shovel. He remembered the last time he encountered this creature she blasted a laser at him at Flash so he was on his...what were these things called? Toes? Yeah those, he was totally on those and kept a tight grip on his shovel.

"You hear that boulder? You ancestor was a bad ass" Maud said in monotone standing nearby Rock Hoof having come as his plus one.

"Please; we've come not to fight but to offer our congratulations and-" Starswirl began to explain but was stopped when Adagio put up a hand.

Keeping a straight face for a moment she analyzed them all. "First of all, how're you all still alive?" Adagio asked plainly.

"Trapped in Limbo with a shadow pony; long story" Mist Mane answered with a sigh and shrug.

"You played a game with a stick in the dark for 1000 years? How does that make you not dead?" Sonata said confused and scratching her head which caused everyone within earshot to face palm and or burst out laughing.

Recovering from her face palm she sighed "Right got it" Adagio said evenly and looked at each of them while she kept her sister restrained but still threatened to release her. "Now ordinarily I'd tell you to gimme a reason as to why I shouldn't let Aria here pummel you all into the dirt for trapping us here. But clearly if you just watched my wedding you'll know that if anything else? I have nothing but thanks. I am grateful that you all banished us here because it gave me the chance to meet the love of my life and learn my true purpose, so that's all water under the bridge as it were-" Adagio chuckled and yanked Aria's pigtail which made her stop snapping at them and smirked still semi-evil like. "But cross me the wrong way? And you won't escape my wrath so easily...Clear?" She shot them all a very dead serious look and had she still fed on negative energy she would have slurped all their fear and anxiety up in that moment. As siren she still had the ability to sense and detect emotions and each of the pillars were oozing with a variety of them.

The pillars all looked to one another, then to the elder siren and nodded in agreement with only Starswirl speaking up to say. "Crystal"

Adagio smiled cheerfully and released her sister after that and took her wife's hand. Her little sister grumbling as she fixed her one pigtail and Sonata giggling like a child at the display and giving her sister a hug which even though she'd never admit it? Always calmed her down after Adagio had tugged at her hair.

"Splendid! Now if you'll excuuuuuuuse us we've got a cake to slice and eat! Aria be a dear and don't kill them, use your words. Ta-ta~" Adagio said cheerfully as she went off with her wife to eat cake. Sunset was only a slight bit hesitant because she wanted to talk to Starswirl the breaded so, so, so ,so, SO badly! Celestia and Twilight had invited him and the pillars at the last minute at Sunset's request after getting each of their approval but she didn't get to personally meet Starswirl himself but she was dragged away by her wife before she could barrage him with questions.

"But-But-Starswi-" Sunset began to whine as she was dragged away from her childhood hero.

"Ah, ah, ah! Cake first, then we dance, theeeen you can geek out over old swirly beard over there." Adagio teased as she brought her wife closer to the wedding cake that she knew both of them were dying to eat.

If there was one thing Adagio, Sunset and Celestia all had in common? They all loved cake. Celestia just loved cake period, Sunset loved ice cream cake and cupcakes while Adagio was a sucker for cheesecake or red velvet cake. Luckily for them they had not one but TWO pinkie pie's to aid in creating their cake and needless to say? It was breath taking, mouthwatering and so big that they wouldn't be surprised if there was a second cake inside the cake.

It was decorated in their primary colors of red orange and yellow and had their cutie marks engraved into it along with several musical notes going across it. The aroma of the cake literally made their mouth's water the closer they got to it as a big red velvet, chocolate/vanilla ice cream cake with some of the most delicious looking whipped cream and chocolate sauce coating it that they'd ever lay eyes on.

"Pinkie I swear you never cease to amaze me!" Sunset said giving her pink friend a hug for such an amazing cake designed exactly how they wanted it. Pinkie was a master baker and the fact they had two of them?! It was practically cheating because Pinkie spoiled them and she knew it but she wouldn't have it any other way.

Pinkie giggled and blushed happily at the show of affection from Sunset Shimmer and patted the girl on the head with a happy smile. "Oh shucks it was nothing! I mean it's totally something super duper ubber special but you get what I mean! I was mine and my pony twins pinkie party pleasure to make you this yummylicious cake! Oooo I am just SO happy for you two I could sing!" Pinkie said and then her eyes shot open and she grinned that classic pinkie pie grin as soon as she said 'sing' and she dashed away after having pony'ed up and if Sunset knew Pinkie well enough? She was probably going to go find her other self to join in some kind of musical number, it WAS a party after all.

"She is such a sweetheart; so shall we love?" Adagio said as she calmed down from a gigglefit always enjoying Pinkie's company much as she did her little sister Sonata's. Coming up to the large cake she readied the special knife that had been given to them by Celestia from Equestria among many other gifts. Sunset was practically like a daughter to the Sun princess and so Celestia may have gone a little overboard in spoiling the young mare turned human since it appeared her actually birth mother would not and her father just didn't approve hence his absence.

"Of course, down the middle through the cutie marks." Sunset said as she came next to Adagio and hand over hand held the knife with her and cut the cake and everyone gathered around to take pictures, most of which where coming from Celestia, Photo Finish & Sonata. As the pierced the cake the aroma lifted again to their noses as they sliced down the middle through their cutie marks and then skillfully cut two pieces out of the cake for one another.

Adagio held Sunset's cutie mark on a golden plate and Sunset held Adagio's cutie mark on a similar plate; putting down the knife they would turn to one another and feed each other slices of cake and everyone reacted happily to their shows of affection. It was then the microphone up on the stage was taken over by Pinkie Pie who was in toe with her pony self, Rara, human Applejack and human Rarity each taking their positions each with a different instrument. Rarity wasn't sporting her usual keytar but a sax but Applejack kept her bass.

"We've got a special song for the newlyweds! Hit it girls!" Pinkie said taking point on her drums while Rara took the microphone. Meanwhile pony Pinkie Pie would stand ready on the stage with a microphone of her own. It was then as the girls began to play the opening beat and tempo to the song that Rara spoke up first.

Ms. Worldwide checkin' in
I just wanna say, Sunset Shimmer, Adagio Dazzle
It's a true honor
I appreciate the love and wanna sing ya'll a lil song
Now let's show the whole world
How to have a good time
Ha ha
Hit It!!

Adagio squealed and quickly put her cake down and Sunset did the same knowing Adagio was just itching to dance and to be honest? So was she; as they dropped their cake on the nearest table they rushed to the center floor where most everyone had already gathered and then the song began. They truly did know Adagio and Sunset very well because this was a song the both of them loved to dance too and the fact that they had Rara herself singing it here at their wedding? They truly did appreciate the young music star and hoped to repay her for her kindness someday.

Everybody's workin' hard for the weekend
And we're spendin' it all, yeah

When tomorrow comes
You know that you can sleep in
So you know that it's on, baby

Sunset and Adagio were the center of the attention, they swayed and bumped together in perfect sync having developed their own little shuffle and dance to this song that was entirely their own and many others began to follow their lead as the two of them looked to be having such a good time. On the dance floor they lead the charge and even though not everyone in the room was dancing yet? They surely would be by the end of the night, Rara had a way of bringing out the rhythm in people and Pinkie Pie could just make anyone want to sing and dance given enough time.

Do what you wanna do
Go where you wanna go
Move how you wanna move
Everybody, body
Drink what you wanna drink
Step how you wanna step
Love who you wanna love
Everybody have a good time!

As the first chorus of the song kicked in most everyone had gotten a grip on how Sunset and Adagio's dance had gone. They would shuffle back and forth on both feet a few times and then shuffle a few times to the right and then to the left; a few people like Pony Applejack and Rarity had put their own spins on it which they openly encouraged, Applejack adding a more 'country dosey do' flare to her dancing as she always did. Sunset had initially based this dance off of a taunt she'd seen in the 4th Daring Do video game where you could customize taunts online many of which were dances.

Good time
Good, good time
Good time
Everybody have a good time
Good time
Good, good time
Good time
Everybody have a good time

Sunset was delighted more so when her friends from Equestria along with the other Rainbooms would join in. She was so overjoyed to have so many of her friends here to dance and sing along with her as she celebrated what she considered the best day of her life. Princess Twilight and Princess Luna joined in dancing next to her and Adagio and were having just as much fun as they were. Sunset was surprised when she found out that the princess had fallen for Luna but then again she always had a feeling Twilight had a thing for older women and seeing as how she herself just got married to a siren who was well over a few thousand years old? She couldn't blame her.

Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, everybody have a good time!

Adagio would sing along to the song as it was being preformed by Rara and as such her magic would begin to mark people and given all the positive emotions in the room? She was going to feed very, very well today! As her magic mist began to fill the room as she started singing she spun, twirled and shuffled with the love her life like she was back in the 70's again and that was a really wild time in Adagio's life. Really from the 70's to the early 90's it was a constant party for Adagio because of all the chaos going on among humanity at the time.

Wanna make this night a night to remember
Come on get off the wall (get off the wall)

Pony Pinkie and Rara had now moved into the crowd and began to dance and sing with everyone else, getting everyone into the mood. Getting the shy wall flowers off the wall like pony Fluttershy, human coco pommel and Pinkie's little sister Marble Pie to name a few with Adagio's sister giving help singing along as well since they refused to let Adagio hog ALL the glory even though it was her wedding day but they'd let her feed the most since this was her party.

Doin' anything you want
What's your pleasure?
We can go all night long, baby

Do what you wanna do
Go where you wanna go
Move how you wanna move
Everybody, body
Drink what you wanna drink
Step how you wanna step
Love who you wanna love
Everybody have a good time!

Adagio by this point had absorbed enough magic and had gone through her siren transformation as this part of the song came up especially since she knew her favorite part of the song was coming up which was a freestyle. Out of the three sirens Adagio had the most lyrical skill when it came to rapping seconded only by Sonata who could speed rap whereas Aria was proficient in battle rap since she was very, VERY good at insulting people. Her equine ears sprouted atop her head, her translucent purple wings sprouted from her back where skin was shown on her dress and her necklace dazzled a glowing orange light.

Good time
Good, good time
Good time
Everybody have a good time
Good time
Good, good time
Good time
Everybody have a good time

As they continued to shuffle and dance from left to right Sunset and her fellow Rainboom's had pony'ed up themselves. Sunset, Sci-Twi, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash all gained their pony features in addition to their cutie marks appearing on one cheek on the side of their faces one by one and lit up the room in aurora of colors that was enhanced by the musical miasma of the three sirens.

Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, everybody have a good time

It was then that Adagio turned her attention personally on Sunset and used her siren magic to amplify her voice as she dragged her beloved across the dance floor with grace toward Rara and getting the idea Rara handed over control of the flow to Adagio who began the freestyle to the beat of the song as she shuffle danced with her wife.

You can bet that it's the right here
Turn you right and show you the time of your life
You can bet, you can bet
That I'll have you doin' things that are wrong
Makin' 'em feel right

That's right
You can bet, you can bet
You can say that you won't
But you will
And I know just what you want to feel
You can bet, you can bet
I'll take away that depression
With sweet lust, hot passion, and deep pressure

Have a good time girl
You can bet that
Little thing between your legs
I'm gonna wet that

No I won't sweat that
But I'll get that
Matter fact lay back
Let me lick that
Let me pl-pl-play with that little kitten

Momma there's no point
Don't fight the feelin'
There's absolutely nothin' wrong with a little sinnin'
You can't change up on your game in the 9th inning
Ha ha!

As she finished she and Rara shared a brief look of interest that musicians of a like skill set would often share when business was to be conducted later. Rara had decided to make Canterlot City her home for the time begin since she sought to get away from the more sleazy and controlling air of Manehatten that lead her down such a nasty path in the beginning with that sleazy manager and she was planning on getting back into her music full time and who better to aid her than a magic song weaver? It was the least Adagio could do and logically seemed like the next best step, she had graduated with a masters in the arts so really anything involving entertainment especially in singing, dancing or acting was right up her ally.

Good time
Good, good time
Good time
Everybody have a good time
Good time
Good, good time
Good time
Everybody have a good time

Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, everybody have a good time!

The song had come to an end and the three sirens had finished their magical feeding with Adagio taking in a large amount of the energy that was coming from Sunset as she looked her lover in the eyes that could only be described with two words: burning passion. They were eyes that burned with a lustful fire that she wasn't so sure she could contain much longer and since Sunset was in the apex of her own magic power and she could read minds and emotions? She was feeling the exact same things Adagio was feeling right now and they both had a very similar train of thought as they smiled at each other wantingly. Not wasting any time they embraced in a loving kiss, tongue and all; it lasted a whole two minutes and when they finally broke? The passion hadn't faded...it got stronger! That only meant one thing and both knew what that was as their smiles grew devious in a lustful sense only the two of them and their closest friends who knew them well enough understood.

'Time to go make some magic~' They thought in unison
