Aria had only gone along with Sonata's plan because it was hilarious even if it was so stupid it couldn't possibly work, but fucking hot damn, it was actually working. The students were so distracted by Adagio that they barely gave the two of them a second glance. Sure they were so dead for this, but that was future Sonata and Aria's problem. Even better was watching the Principle and Vice Principle trying not to laugh while giving them and two other girls the 'make one mistake and they will never find the bodies' speech they had been expecting.

After they got their new schedules she had expected the hilariousness to end there. Only the fashion club had heard about how Adagio was dressed and, lead by that whinny white girl with purple hair from the battle of the bands, they descended on Adagio like locusts. The last she saw of her through tears of laughter was her being dragged away to whatever fate awaited her.

"That will teach you to throw away my taco mushroom farm!" Sonata yelled as the fashion club dragged Adagio away.

"Wait, did you do this because she threw away that box in the basement you left tacos in for 4 months?" Aria asked.

"My taco flavored mushrooms would have made millions!" Sonata declared loudly.

"They were covered in poisonous mushrooms, mold, and maggots." Aria explained.

"They couldn't have been that bad." Sonata said.

"I looked several of them up to see if you could get high off of them and one of them is so poisonous that one bite can kill an elephant." She said to try and get through to her baby sister.

"But... but taco mushrooms." Sonata said weakly as her eyes began to tear up.

"Fine, we'll look up if anyone has invented them yet and if not we'll hire a lab to create them, patent them, and you can be the first to eat them as a human test subject. OK." Aria said, hoping it would make her happy.

"Like when I helped test that drug in England and had an orgasm every time I yawned?" Sonata asked before hugging her. "Yes! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Adagio said I couldn't test stuff like that anymore unless one of you said I could."

"Good, now we need to get to class before the bell rings." Aria reminded her before watching Sonata take off at a dead run for home economics class while she headed for history class.


Two figures in grey silently moved through the school, studying many of the students frozen in mid motion as they talked, laughed, and went to class. As they glided down the hall they looked at the various mortals and in a few cases made slight changes. A blond girl with grey skin had been reaching for a muffin in mid air as it dropped, but now it was in her hand as dropping it had never happened. A blue skinned girl turning a wand into a bunch of fake flowers now held a bouquet of real roses and was now turned towards the former student council president. A light grey girl dropping her books and scattering her papers in the hall while being hugged by her over excited pink skinned and haired sister now hadn't dropped her books and not a single page was out of place.

Finally there was a gangly boy with a snail on his shirt was holding a few sickly flowers out to an unimpressed young girl wearing a tiara. Only now he was holding bouquet of roses out to her with his shirt tucked in and his hair combed properly. The Man in Grey, as some called the being, whispered into the boy's ear. "Show her a confident and sure side of yourself. Let her see the hidden depths within you and catch a glimpse of the man you will someday become."

The Lady in Grey then whispered into the girl's ear. "He might need a little work, but there is something about him. Maybe it is the sudden confidence or perhaps you are seeing in this scrawny boy the tall, handsome, and intelligent man he will someday be. Besides, you know what they say, behind every great man is an even better woman. With you at the helm this boy could become a leader of men and the envy of women everywhere, only he would be your's and your's alone, but only if you take this one and only chance and let him in past that diamond hard exterior you try to project."

With that the two eternal lovers walked away to continue searching the school some more as time began to move again. Derpy happily took a bite out of her muffin while heading to home economics, Starlight Glimmer was surprised by Trixie giving her roses, and Marble smiled as Pinkie's hug didn't cause her to drop her books like usual. The biggest shock though was when Silver Spoon and Snips watching Diamond Tiara say yes to going out with Snails and the two of them walking away with a smiles on their faces.


The woman sat in her dimly lit office with the beings that seemed to be made from the darkness. As always when speaking to them she felt an unnatural and bitterly painful coldness. "I assure you that we are in the process of obtaining what you desire, but has hit a few snags with assets under performing and events outside of our control." She said with a forced smile as she braced for the pain.

"WE UNDERSTAND." The over loud multi voice said to her. "UNFORTUNATELY WE NEED FOR YOU TO ACCELERATE YOUR TIME LINE AND ARE ASSIGNING ASSETS UNAVAILABLE WITHIN THIS UNIVERSE." Blood began trickling from the corner of her eyes and from her nose. Around them appeared white transparent men and women as the coldness in the room dropped further. "THE WINDIGOS WILL INCITE THE ONES AT THIS 'SCHOOL' TO GREATER AND GREATER ACTS OF ANGER, HATRED, AND FURY." The woman couldn't help but groan in pain as several more people wearing black leather armor appeared. No they weren't wearing armor, it was part of their skin. "AND THE CHANGELINGS WILL SPREAD CONFUSION, JEALOUSY, ENVY, AND SUSPICION AMONGST THEM. YOU NEED NOT WORRY ABOUT CONTROLLING THEM, WE WILL DO THAT OURSELVES." With that all of them disappeared and the woman broke down sobbing in pain.

Reaching over to her cell phone she dialed and spoke. "We need to talk... They were here and things have changed... Meet me after school at my house... Good bye."


Author's Note

God, I missed having fun with the Sirens, also there really is a drug with that side effect.

I debated whether to use the Man in Grey and the Lady in Grey. These two are not human in the slightest and what they really are is unknown, but their look is different to everyone and all anyone can ever remember is someone in grey. Why they are in CHS could be any number of reasons.

Hmm... Anon-a-miss might be more than it originally appeared and who ever is behind it is playing with things they cannot hope to control. Also Windigos and Changelings, someone is pulling out the big guns to get whatever they want.
