Author's Note

Okay, sorry, I have been working on this for a long time. Sorry for taking so long, no, its not dead. Also, I am sorry for the amount of Videos I had to put into this chapter, but with the amount of Music that is in Rainbow Rocks, well. So, with that said, have a nice read, and hopefully I will have the next chapter out sooner.

Also, for those who still wonder when Seven Riders of Equestria will update, or if it is dead, don't worry. It isn't dead. It just takes a long while to flesh out the details of how I want it to go.

Another thing, I am working on another chapter of my other two stories. They are taking a little, but getting done.

Anyway, thank you all for being patient, and waiting for me to write this chapter.

Have a Jivin Day!


Rainbow Rocks

I was out with the girls when it happened. I felt a disturbance in the force.

"I feel a disturbance in the force." I say ominously. "I must go, my music needs me." Pinkie immediately understood.

"Go, for the music is more important. Return, when the disturbance has been fixed." I nod and bow to the robed master Pinkie.

"I will, master." And then turn to run off, but Satan follows me. I go, and I see Faust peeking out from the library as I happen to pass by. I head in, and Satan follows me.

When in, Faust grabs my arm, and takes me over to a door hidden in the massive library. Opening it, she leads me inside.

Inside is the portal to the human Equestria. She turns to me.

"Cameron, there has been a disturbance in the force. The music of the human world is in jeopardy. You have been tasked with heading over, before Twilight goes, to find out what you can do, and establish yourself. Satan can come, but she will need to stay out of sight. Its up to her if she wants to go." She turns to her.

Satan thinks, then says.

"I want to help daddy. Daddy helped me. What do I need to do?" Faust shakes her head no.

"Very well. But do know, if you go over, your form might change. Do you still want to go?" Satan just nods vigorously. Faust smiles, and then turns to me.

"You will need some instruments, and something to carry them in. Here is your case." She then pulls out a coffin from the ground, pure black, save for a line of dialog on the top, and an eye.

'The bird of Hermes is my name,
Eating my wings, to make me tame.' I see all this, then grab it, look for the chains to carry it, and then open it to put Satan in. Satan climbs in the coffin, and I close it.

"Thanks for the coffin, when do I leave?" I say. Faust smiles.

"Your welcome and now. I'll open the portal, and Twilight will be there in a few days. Find any problems, and fix them. Good luck." She then starts to pour her magic into the portal, opening it. And I step through.

Lord I didnt miss the head trip. As I stumble out the portal at the base of the horse statue, I look around. I see the school in front of me, and sigh. School once again. At least I'm a senior, so I can skip some classes. I look at myself. I look to be in the clothes that Delsin Rowe wears in the game Infamous Second Son. I take the vest off and see its the Fossilized vest. I shrug and put it back on. Then, I head into the school.

I see students wandering the hall, and go over to a gray skinned blonde talking to a tall white, very muscled man with blade hair. Taping the blonde girls shoulder, I get their attention. The blonde turns around, and I see its Derpy.

"Hey, Derpy, do you know where I might find Sunset and the other girls?" I ask.

"Cameron, it's good to see you again. Their probably in the gym right now, and if not there, then the band practice room. Muffin?" I accept the offered chocolate chip muffin.

"Thank you Derpy. And thank you for the muffin." I say as I walk off for the gym.

When I reach it, is is right behind Celestia and Luna.

"Good afternoon, students. I'm so happy to know that so many will be participating in this year's high school musical showcase." I slip over to the girls, standing behind them, as I had seen them standing near the doors when I entered. Everyone In the gym was cheering when they heard Celestia.

"This is an amazing opportunity for us to raise money for the school, for activities and field trips. So, keep working on those signs. I have a feeling, this will be the most exciting event since the fall formal." She finishes.

"Oooohhhh, that has got to hurt. Practically calling you out like that has to suck." I say. All the girls look at me surprised, and Sunset thinks first.

"CAMERON!!!" She yells, and jumps at me, throwing her arms around me. The rest of the girls huddle up around me, and Rarity says.

"Cameron, how are you Darling." I snap to her. And then chuckle lightly.

"Take me somewhere more private and I can tell you all." I say. Rarity nods, and grabs my hand, starting to drag me out the gym.

The rest of the girls follow us. We head to a room, and inside was a large amount of instruments. I was guessing it was a practice room for the band. Rarity pulled me through the door, and didn't even wait for everyone to enter, before she jumped on me, and started to make out with me.

The girls came in, and saw me kissing Rarity. They all looked on stunned.

"Rarity, let me put down the coffin first, please?" I say. Rarity stops sucking my face, and I let her down, then put the coffin in the corner. The girls stare on as Rarity continues. Rainbow just says.

"The fuck?" I stop kissing Rarity, and turn to say to her.

"Hey, watch the language, kids are present." She just stares on.

"What?" I sigh.

"Rarity, it might help to explain before we continue." She nods.

"Girls, I am not Rarity. She is not in control at the moment. I am Desparity." She says. Her smile grows more wicked, her right eye gets three claw marks over it, and her hair more frazzled. The others are scared, and Sunset angry.

"Cameron, that's a demon. Why is a demon in Rarity?" I nod.

"Yes, that's a demon. One I have met, and talked to, and who fought beside me. She is usually back home, but is here for some reason." Hinting at wanting an explanation. Desparity picked up on it, and says.

"After losing her arms, Rarity grew slightly depressed. I wasnt able to come out, so I came here. This Rarity has been letting me take control on occasion, and help her out with problems. As long as I help her, she lets me out at times. As long as I don't do anything wrong, at least." I nod, its reasonable enough.

Sunset is still angry, but I hug her and say.

"Hey, if she does anything, I will stop her. And besides, she is nothing like what you became. Faust trusts her, and I trust her. If nothing else, trust the goddess and me to know what where doing." She looks at me, and then hugs me.

"Fine. But don't expect me to like it." I nod.

"Well, with all this out the way, any reason you brought me here?" Desparity nods.

"Well, with the musical showcase coming soon, we need to practice. So, I thought we could, and give you a little show. Ready girls?" They a nod, and Sunset starts to smile, and hold on top the piano. I mean against the wall by the coffin, and listen as they all get ready.

(Forgive the first part. Start with Pinkie starting on the drums please. Also, shout out to Letupita725HD.)

After the song was over, I moved from the wall and clapped.

"Good job. That was really good." Rainbow nods.

"Yeah, but Rarity is off on the second verse, and Applejack needs to work on her solo. They'll get it together in time for the showcase." She says smugly. I walk over, and lightly smack her upside the head.

"You will help the band get better. Its not their job alone to fix it, its the bands job to work together." Everyone else nods, and Rarity says.

"Well, I for one love playing, and I simply must find something to go with the adorable pony ears and longer hair." I chuckle.

"Good to have you back Rarity. How have you been?" I say.

"Ugh, I have been having to pull some all nighters recently to finish some orders. Desparity's endless needles has been useful, and she herself has been a lifesaver on school days, allowing me to sleep while still going to school." Applejack then steps in.

"That's right, I've been noticing something off. But still, what I want to know is, why do we transform when we play? Twilight took the magic with her when she went back to Equestria, so why do we pony up?" I think.

"Probably because there is still magic here. Here more so. Before Sunset brought the crown here and put it on, there was magic. Just not enough to do anything. Now, with the magic here having been charged so to say, it's still here. It can now regenerate the magic on its own again, and it wont drain as fast. Thats my theory anyway." Sunset nods at this.

"I think your on to something. When I first arrived, I could feel ambient magic, but it wasn't actively recharging at a high enough rate to use magic. Now, I can feel it everywhere." The intercom comes on.

'Sunset shimmer to the foyer.' she sighs.

"I gotta go. I volunteered to show some new students around. I want to show them the new me, before they get to hear about the old me." She looks down, and I say.

"Let me help. I have no classes, and also need to learn about the school too." She looks at me happily, and then turns away slightly, blushing. I walk to the corner, and grab the coffin. Rainbow finally asks.

"Okay, whats the coffin for?" I answer.

"It's like your guitar case, but my version. Dont worry, nothings inside that will harm you." And me and Sunset leave the room.

We gt to the foyer, and see three girls standing in some shadows near the door. Sunset calls out.

"Hey, are you the three I'm to show around?" They all step out the shadows and smile. The one in the middle with poofy orange hair speaks.

"We are." I nod.

"Cool. I'm Cameron, and this is Sunset Shimmer. We're the ones who will be giving you the tour. So, Poofy Orange, whats all your names?" One of the trio, one with twin tails, snickers.

"Here, have a Snickers for the snickers." And hand her a Snickers bar from my pocket. She just starts to bust out laughing, and Sunset and the blue ponytailed girl in the group laugh too. Poofy Orange growls, and the two stop laughing.

"My name is Adagio Dazzle. These are my sister's, Aria and Sonata." She says. I just chuckle.

"Hey, dont worry. I wasnt doing it to be mean. I'm sorry if it offended you." I say sincerely. She just grunts. Sunset says.

"Well, lets get started." And we head off.

Roughly thirty minutes later, we had shown them most of the school. We had past multiple of them, but since we were almost done, Sunset stopped by the nearest one.

"Now, coming up is a the schools musical showcase. Since your new, Principal Celestia will probably let you sign up." Adagio just smiles at this.

"Yes, that sounds wonderful." Aria snorts.

"Yeah. Knowing us, we might just win." She grins maniacally. I smirk.

"If it was a competition, then that might be the case. This is just a showing off from all the different bands." Sonata speaks up next.

"Well, that might just change." I just look at her curious. She shrugs. Sunset then notices something, and says.

"Hey, those are pretty matching necklaces you have there. Where did you get them?" She then reaches for the one on Adagios neck, but she sees it and gets scared, grabbing Sunset by the wrist. I step closer, ready to help Sunset. Adagio realizes what she did, and lets go of Sunset.

"Sorry. Its just, they are important to us, and we don't like it when people touch them." Sunset nods, and says.

"Sooty, that was rude of me anyways. Well, the tour is over, so if you want, you can head to principal Celestias office for your class schedules." They nod, and leave. Sunset waits for a sec, and then says.

"So were both suspicious of them, right? Or is that just me?" I nod.

"Lets wait till lunch, and we can tell the others." She nods, and we head to the lunch room.

By the time we get there, the lunch room is packed. We get our food, and see the girls across the room. We sit down, and Sunset and I get asked some questions.

"How did it go?" Rainbow says. Sunset replies.

"Well, the tour went well, and everything was fine, till the very end. We were showing them about the musical showcase, and then they started talking as if it was a competition. Then, Sonata, one of the new girls, said that it might just turn into one. And after that, I dont know what it was, but something felt off about the new girls." Pinkie asks Sunset.

"What do you mean?" But before she can answer, the lunchroom doors bust open.

After all of that, Pinkie says.

"Never mind, I understand." And me and Desparity look at each other.

"Desparity, you saw that right?" She nods.

"Yes. That was anger floating around. They absorbed it into the gems." I nod.

"I see now why Faust sent me here early, but she said Twilight would come through later. I dont know how, since she just brute forced the portal open for me. And also, we dont even know what where up against, and we have no way of contacting Twilight and them back in Equestria." Sunset looks at me startled, and then swallows.

"Actually, we might. You just reminded me." And she gets up, leaving the lunchroom. We all follow. She heads to her locker, and opens it, then digs around before pulling out an old book. Rainbow sees and asks.

"How is a book going to help us?" Sunset looks at her, and says.

"This journal is linked to another in Equestria. Whatnot write here, appears in the connected on in Celestias library. Hopefully, I can get a message to her, and he can give it to Twilight." Rainbow nods, and grabs a pen out her pack. Handing to Sunset, she says.

"Well what are you waiting for? Get writing." Sunset takes a deep breath, and says.

"It's been ages since I wrote this. 'Dear Princess Celestia,'"

Meanwhile, in Equestria, Twilight was helping Spike and Tophreltes with putting new books in the library. They had come down from Canterlot, and had been sent by Celestia. Spike was digging through the pile, and saw a book glowing.

"Hey Twilight, can you come here? I need you to see something." Twilight comes over, and Spike points to the glowing book. Grabbing it, she opens it, and reads the latest part of the book. She gasps.

"Its from the girls a Canterlot High. They say they have a problem. I need to go help them." The door opens, and the rest of the herd comes into the library.

"Hey Twi, whats going on?" Applejack asks.

"My friends at Canterlot High need my help. The only problem is, the portal isn't going to open for a long time yet." She starts thinking. Pinkie just bounces over.

"Yeah, but if they were able to get that message through, then there is still a connection, right?" She asks. Twilight turns to her, incredulous.

"Pinkie, your a genius! Tophreltes, I need some help." She says. Tophreltes follows Twilight to the door that holds the portal, and then starts to tell her stuff that she will need.

Roughly five minutes later, stuff is flying around the room, and Twilight is in the center, muttering to herself. After another five minutes, everything has calmed down, and Twilight is finished.

"Alright, now, this machine I have hooked to the portal should take the magic from the book, and use it to open the portal. Here's to hoping it works." She says, as she levitates the book to a stand atop the machine.

When she sets it, the book glows, before the magic is sucked from the book. it is then passed through a bunch of tubes, run through some rollers, and finally, zapped onto the surface of the mirror. Twilight jumps for joy.

"Yes!"

Meanwhile, about twenty minutes before, when Sunset wrote what was going on, I said.

"I'm going to talk to the principals. They need to know whats going on, and we can have them expel the girls before anything happens." The rest of the group nods, and I walk away to the office.

Reaching it, I knock, and am told to enter. Doing so, I see Luna talking to Celestia.

"Cameron?! We didn't know you where here. Is Twilight with you?" I shake my head.

"Not currently, but its due to change. No, that's not why i'm here. The three new girls are up to something. We were all in the lunchroom, and they came in and started to rile everyone up. They started talking about a battle of the bands." Luna nods.

"Yes, they came here earlier and presented the idea to us. They even sang us a nice song." And I look at them, and see their eyes flash with a green light. I nod.

"Yeah, I was afraid of that. Its not a bad idea, but we cant have the students hurting each other. Please tell the teachers, that way everyone can stay safe." They nod, and I leave.

I head to the foyer, and see the girls heading outside. Following them, they see me, and ask.

"How did it go with the principals?" I shake my head.

"They already got to them. They're under their spell. I think I know whats going on, but I'm not sure. Lets see if Twilight can come through before I tell my theory." They nod, and we wait.

Not long after, the statue bottom starts to glow white, and Twilight steps out. Spike is next, and he looks much the same, only now, he is no longer purple. He's brown with cream ears and paws.

"Hey, Spike, its been a little bit man. Hows it going?" He looks at me, as does Twilight.

"Cameron, do you know how worried we were? The only reason none of us panicked when we couldn't find you is because Pinkie said your fine. Sweet Celestia, please dont do that again." She comes over and gives me a kiss, and all the girls smile.

"Oh, so you dont mind Twilight, but Desparity, oh nooo, the world is going crazy." I say jokingly. Rainbow laughs.

"Yeah, because we could all see that Twilight liked you. We knew that she would probably get with you. Desparity, no one knew she was here, and no-one expected her to jump you." Twilight lights up, and she looks at me. I nod. She starts to chuckle. Then, her fur starts to change color, and becomes a dark magenta. Her eyes change to a slit, and she looks at Rarity.

She starts to sultrily walk to her.

And is stopped, by my hand on the collar of her shirt. Her skin turns back, and I just laugh.

"Down, Brutalight. Not here. We have a problem, and we need to stop it." Twilight nods.

"Yeah, okay. I think I know what they are. Sirens." I nod.

"That is what i was thinking. But my mythology is different. Sirens would lure sailors to their death. They then fed on their flesh. What's yours?"

"Sirens feed off anger and malice. Their songs could put anyone under their spell, and make them do whatever they want. Starswirl the Bearded banished them from Equestria a long time ago, and it must have been to here." I nod.

"Well, they are taking the school by storm. The students are now in competition over the new battle of the band's. We need to figure out how to stop them." Twilight thinks for a second.

"Well, the magic of friendship is still here. I can feel it. So, maybe we can use it again like last time." I think for a second.

"That's true, but the thing is, the girls magic doesn't manifest unless they are playing music. So, we might have to actually battle. And wait till we can play something that can snap everyone out of the spell. So, that means, we need to figure out who's going to be lead singer." Rainbow raises her hand.

"I'm already lead singer though?" I nod.

"Yes, but your going to need to be focused on shredding. Applejack needs to focus on her bass playing, and Pinkies on drums. Fluttershy plays the whatever it's called, I forget, and Rarity plays the keytar. That means, we need someone who can sing, and focus solely on that." Rarity raises her hand.

"I need to get started on the band ensemble. We cant just go out in our regular clothes." Applejack gets huffy.

"Rarity, it's not about the clothing. Were trying to stop some more things from ruining the school, and your worried about clothes?" I intervene.

"Rarity's right. We need something better than what we have. However, we dont have forever, and no gaudy or flashy outfits. Something simple but stylish, and matches with the others." Rarity nods, and I then say.

"Now, where can we do karaoke at?" Pinkie jumps up.

"I know where. Sugercube corner has a karaoke room for parties, so we can use that. It uses YouTube and places to get songs and lyrics." I nod.

"Well, let's go." And grab my coffin.

We make it to sugercube corner. Pinkie goes to the counter, talks to Mrs. Cake, and then leads us all to the back. We then turn a corner, and a mahogany door sits at the end. We head through it, into a fairly spacious room, about 8'×6'×8'. On one wall, a tv was mounted. Around the edges of the room, a couple of soft looking couches, and a table in the center. On it, was a stand with two microphones.

"Pretty nice Pinkie. Why did the Cakes make this?" I ask.

"Well, they knew that kids around here are in some way into music, so they made it for the ones who like to sing. And, its fun for parties." I nod.

"So hows it work?" She skips over to the tv on the wall, and pulls a remote out of a sleeve on the side, and turns it on.

It immediately comes up with a selection screen for hundreds of different songs. I nod.

"Well, we can all have fun, but only two people are going to be actually competing. Twilight and Sunset are going to be the choices for lead singer. Its not about being better though, so have fun." I say to them.

"Now, who's on first?" Pinkie responds.

"Whats on second." And I say.

"I don't know."

"Third base."
"Third base."

And me and Pinkie laugh. Rainbow raises her hand.

"I don't give a darn." I say.

"Oh, hes our short stop." And we all start laughing. I toss her the Mic, and say.

"Your up first. Pick something, and give it your best." She nods, giggling, and starts to look through the song list. Finally, she chooses something.

When she was done, we all applauded, and she sat down.

"Who's next?" Applejack grabs the Mic, and picks a song.

Again we all applauded, and Applejack picked next person. It was Fluttershy. She grabbed the mic, and chose her song.

All of us were stunned by her choice of song. It didnt fit the quite style of Fluttershy. I just shook my head, and asked who is next.

Rarity raised her hand, and she looked for a bout three minutes for a song, before finding one she liked.

We applauded the song and Rarity when she was done. I always liked that song since the first time I heard it. Rarity then has the mic taken by Pinkie. She then picks a song.

(Sorry, couldnt find one with lyrics, and this was cooler than the original. Both are good, but this one made a little more sense for Pinkie. Also, more videos coming.)

We all were laughing at the pretend but real enthusiasm we had from Pinkie's singing, and none of us knew what was being said. We all had fun though. After that, I grabbed the mic.

"Well, after that, I don't know about my chances. But, I have a song I like, and its a little bit special. See if you can guess how?" I say, winking. I then pick my song.

The whole time I was singing, I kept looking at Sunset, quick glances at her when no one was paying attention. I think she knew I sang it for her, because she was blushing since the first lines.

All of them had a blush by the end though. I smile.

"So, tensions gone. Don't pick songs that are comfortable in front of others. Keep it decent, but don't just do clean. It's boring if we don't get out of our comfort zone. Fluttershy, good job for starting it. Now, time for the competition, then we can have some more fun. Twilight, your up first." And I toss her the mic.

She goes through, and picks a song.

We applaud, and I say.

"Okay, on a scale of one to ten, how good does all of us think that was. I have a 8." Twilight glares at me. I stick my tongue out at her, and she laughs, and says.

"Don't tempt me." And I laugh. Rarity then says.

"I give it an 8 as well." Fluttershy speaks up.

"10. At least to me." We all nod, and Rainbow says.

"8 for me as well." And Applejack says.

"9 for me. It was really good." Pinkie then says.

"10. It was a good song, and she had proper emotion for the entire thing." I nod. Then Twilight hands the mic to Sunset, and she picks a song.

As it starts, she takes a deep breath, and then starts to sing.

When she is done, I am crying. I understood why she chose this song. And that made this next decision the hardest.

I look to Pinkie, and she looks to me, and nods. I then get the attention of all the others subtly, and nod to them. They all nod back with a questioning look, and I just look at them with the message of 'Follow my lead'. I look to Sunset.

"Sunset. I hate to say this, but that is worth a 5. You did good, but it could be better. More emotion, more umph. I'm sorry." And I look away. The rest of the girls look in horror, before Rarity speaks up.

"Dear, I am afraid he is right. I however give it a 6. You did very well, but the enthusiasm needs to be better." She looks away. Applejack speaks up, and I can tell it pains her.

"I'm sorry, but that was a 6 for me too. For the same reasons as Rarity." She pulls her hat over her eyes. Rainbow is next.

"Sunset, I give that a 7, because I thought you had the emotion, but the power didn't get to me. If you catch my drift." She says, and looks away as well. Fluttershy is last. And I had a bad feeling about this.

That is when I noticed her eyes had changed. One was now red. She was looking at me. I nod. Butchershy then says.

"That sucked. I thought it was bad. But it at least deserves a 5. You put into it, but it still was bad. Keep it up, and you'll do better." And Butchershy looks away.

Sunset looks devastated, but then seems to suck it up. She wipes a few tears away, and I stand and take the mic.

"So, with the competition out the way, whats the sleeping plan for tonight? Me and Twilight have nowhere to sleep, and last time we were here, I slept on Sunset's couch." Twilight's head whips to me.

"So that is were you where? I was on a pile of books in the school library. You fucking ass!" And she proceeds to punch my arm. That gets chuckles out of everyone as I rub my arm.

Everyone feels a bit better, but we no longer wanted to sing. We left Sugercube Corner, and Pinkie said that we could have a sleepover at her house. We all agree, and stop over at the nearby Papa Murphy's for that family size pizza.

This is slight out of story, but my favorite is the family size five meat. Its two layers of pizza, with different types of meat in it. A slice will fill you up. We got one of those, and a California. Another two layer, with tomatoes, olives, and other things. Both are delicious. Pinkie gave it her stamp of approval.

Making it to her house, we got the pizzas in the oven, and Twilight started to work on a possible counterspell to the sirens magic. She was writing it in song form, but seemed to be having trouble with it, though it was hard to see.

Rainbow and Applejack were playing a game on Pinkies console. I just smirked. They dont have the same consoles and games that my world does. Though, I would have to equate Pinkies console to an Atari system. It was older. I said to them.

"Hey, I play winner. But, we play on my console." And pull out my Xbox with two controllers. "Rocket League, versus. Car soccer, with supersonic acrobatic rocket powered battle cars. Thats the original name." Rainbow perks up.

"Oh, that game? I know how to play that, your going down." I chuckle, and say.

"You go ahead and believe that." And they finish up the game. I set up the Xbox, and start it and the game up. I look to Dash.

"Nicole, its two players today. Give us a moment, she needs to make a car." A face appears on the screen, and I load up Rocket League.

We then make a car for Rainbow. She chose the Masamune body, with the road rage skin, and with a dark red camo primary, and a light blue pearlescent accent. She had the regard Masamune wheels, and the accelerator boost. No hat, and the New Mombasa Cavaliers flag, with the T-Rex goal, and the Nissan Skyline engine sound. It was a nice car.

My car, was a Venom body, Tagged decal, and Sunset's colors, a golden orange brushed metal Primary, with a red carbon fiber accent. I have the Puma wheels, and the new Beat Saber rocket boost. A Monsetercat topper, and the Swords of Sanghelios flag. I also have the T-Rex goal and Nissan engine sound.

"Nicole, let's play. Girls, we'll be back in a minute." And me and Rainbow get sucked in.

When me and Rainbow get spat back out, she isn't happy. I had won ten to four.

"That was bullshit. You've had more practice than I have at being in that game. I shake my head.

"That's the first time I have been in that game. Last game I was in was a horror game, and I almost died. It wasn't fun." Nicole laughs on the screen.

"I wouldn't say that. He had plenty of fun, when I didn't have Necromorphs trying to kill him. Even when they were, he still had fun." I looked at her.

"Fuck you, I was terrified the whole time. I have played it, but I have never lived it. Those are two different things. Now, Applejack, want a turn?" She shook her head, but Pinkie raised hers.

"That looks like fun! I wanna do it." And I bring Pinkie over. And we make Pinkies car.

Pinkie chooses the Bugsy body, with the derby girl decal. She has a sea foam green glossy primary, with the regular white glossy accent. She had the mothership wheels, and no topper or flag. She had the confetti boost, and the Puft Man goal, and finally, the default engine sound. I had the same car. And we were sucked in.

"How did you do so good? You where tied the whole match till he got that final point." Rainbow asks when we come back out.

"Well, I had the ball cam on for most of the match, and it helped with being third person to know where the ball is. Then, whenever I drove away from the ball, I reversed the controls in my head, and then go the direction I need. It wasnt too hard once you figure it out." Pinkie says.

Sunset raises her hand.

"I wanna try. That looks like so much fun." She says with a grin. I bring her over, and she says.

"Hey, can I have the car you used?"

"Sure. I'll pick another." And I choose the Delorean. Back to the Future for the win.

And then we got sucked in.

"When we came back out, the girls were eating pizza, and Sunset had won. She had gotten two points more than me, making the final score 5-3, in her favor. I just laughed, and shook her hand, then we all shared some pizza. After that, we decided to do a sleepover game.

"I say truth or dare." I say. Rainbow agrees, as does Pinkie and Sunset, and so we play. I grab a bottle of cider from the kitchen, and set it down.

"So, who spins first?" And Twilight grabs the bottle.

"I'll go first. If thats okay?" She asks. We all nod. She then sins the bottle, and it lands on Rarity.

"Truth or dare?"

"Truth darling. The dares will come later." Twilight nods.

"Have you ever fantasized about someone? And yes, in that way." She says, lightly grinning. Rarity looks at her.

"Yes. I have. But I dont want to say who, so please, dont ask." We all nod. Rarity spins the bottle, and it lands on Applejack.

"Truth or dare darling?"

"I'll take a dare. Someones got to start them off." She says. Rarity thinks for a second.

"I dare you to take your shirt off." She says with a grin. Applejack looks at her with betrayed eyes.

"I cant do that. Camerons here. If it was just us girls, that would be different, but this isnt good." I just say.

"Dont worry, Applejack. You have some nice hits back home, and I have seen all of you before. Not here, but there. Actually, I have seen all of you, so dont worry." They all but Twilight look at me. Sunset looks slightly hurt though. Applejack just sighs.

"Fine." And begrudgingly takes her shirt off. Her bra is a simple sports bra over some hefty globes. I just look for a second, before looking at her face.

"Your turn." I say. She nods, and spins the bottle. It lands on Pinkie.

"Dare." She says immediately. Applejack nods.

"I dare you to sit on Camerons lap. Come here though." And Pinkie leans in. Applejack whispers, thinking I cant hear.

"Do it until he pops a bones." and Pinkie nods. She then, comes over and plops into my lap.

I immediately call one of the bones in my hammerspace to come out, in my pants, and it forms a tent. I reach in, pull it out, and say.

"Oops, popped a boner. Sorry bout that." And everyone starts laughing. And Pinkie stays on my lap, and I snuggle her. Pinkie then spins the bottle, with it landing on me.

"I choose truth." I say. Pinkie then asks.

"Do you think I'm fat?" And everyone starts laughing again. She then says.

"Actually, is it true that you have done each of us, back in Equestria?" I shake my head.

"No. I have not done Twilight here, or you Pinkie, and I haven't done Rainbow. But I have done Fluttershy, Applejack, and Rarity, and Rarity knows it, I see that blush." I say to her. She is blushing madly, and is flustered.

"I have now idea what you mean, darling." And I chuckle, and let it go. I spin the bottle, and it lands on Fluttershy.

"I'll go dare. I want to do at least one." I nod, and then think.

" I want you to choose one girl in this room, and kiss them like a lover for 30 seconds." Fluttershy just eeps adorably, then shyly nods. She then stands up, before moving to me, and grabbing Pinkies face, before starting to make out with her. We all stare for a moment, and soon enough, 30 seconds has gone by. Fluttershy stops, and Pinkie has a dreamy look on her face.

"Applejack, I can get off now." And Applejack just nods. They then move back to their spots on the floor, and Fluttershy spins the bottle. It lands on Rainbow.

"Yes, I choose dare. Always dare." Fluttershy grins. And it goes downhill for Rainbow.

"I want you to lay down with your face near Cameron's crotch. And stay there till his next turn, or your next turn." And Rainbow eyes go wide. Twilight stands up, and moves towards Rainbow, and then makes her move into position.

I just sit there.

"Butchershy, that's just mean." She chuckles, before Fluttershy comes back. Twilight takes her seat, and I spin the bottle for Rainbow, who is red in the face, blushing. It lands on Sunset.

"I choose truth." She says.

"Rainbow moves so she wont be muffled, and says.

"Os it true that you have a crush on Cameron? And dont try and deny it, because we all could see it. Right girls?" And the others but Twilight nod.

Sunset is flabbergasted, and stutters her response.

"W-well, yes. But, its not, like, that." She then tries to hide herself. I just nod, and Sunset just spins the bottle again. It lands on Twilight.

"Finally, I choose dare." She says. Sunset replies.

"I dare you to strip your outer clothing. You can leave on bra and panties, but everything else comes off." She says. Twilight just shrugs and strips. She then spins the bottle, and it lands back on Sunset. She sighs.

"I choose dare this time." And Twilight smiles.

"I dare you to kiss Cameron for a full minute." And Sunset blanched.

"I-i can't. Hes not my boyfriend, or my herd master, or anything. I can't. No. No I can't, and that is final." Twilight grins wider, and I guess where this is going. Twilight leans over to Sunset, and whispers in her ear.

"I can make you part of our herd. The other girls would probably agree, and I know Cameron would. Why else did he sing that song for you tonight?" and Sunset looks at her. Twilight nods, and jerks her head at me. Sunset moves, and comes towards me, blushing furiously.

Everybody else is leaning in, waiting for the spectacle. She gets close, and I grab her hand. Its shaking, and I can see her body is.

"Its okay, Sunset. Its just a simple dare, with the guy you like. Your nervous, and thats okay. Calm down, and then do the dare. Breath in, breath out, and relax." And she does. Her body physically relaxes, and then she closes her eyes and leans in. I lean into her, and we kiss.

For a full minute, we do. Her lips, tasted like she had put some Chap stick on after the pizza. She was tense the whole time, I could feel it. We didnt make out, but the kiss was great all the same. When she pulled back, she was blushing so hard I could feel the heat on my face.

I then heard a slight snore on my lap. And the moment was ruined. Me and Sunset looked down, and saw that Rainbow had gone to sleep. She looked up, saw my face near hers, and almost jumped back to her spot. I then said.

"So, with that done, and Rainbow asleep, I think its time to call it a night." The others smile at me and Sunset, and agree. Shortly after, the girls and I are ready for bed. And I say.

"Now, with everyone here but me being girls, and Twilight is the only one I am able to sleep with, I am going to go sleep on the couch. Goodnight, and good luck."

And I head to the couch.

At 3 in the morning, I woke to the sound of someone crying. I got up, and moved towards the sound. It was from the kitchen.

Sunset was sitting in the kitchen, crying. It wasn't very loud, by all accounts, but it was still hearable from where I was.

I was about to head in, when Twilight walked in from the other side.

"Sunset? Are you okay?" She jerks up at that, and wipes her eyes.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Why are you up?"

"I'm up because I heard my friend crying. So, I wanted to see what was wrong. So, with that, what's wrong?" Sunset looks at Twilight, and sighs.

"I dont understand why they put me down like they did at the karaoke. I put everything in that song. And I sang like I always did with that song. But they shot it down like they didn't even hear it." Twilight smiles.

"They did. Cameron must have meant something by what he did. And Fluttershy wasn't herself. Applejack was visibly pained, Rainbow lied, they all lied. They loved it. But Cameron has a plan. So, don't worry. I thought you were amazing." Sunset was looking at her.

"How is knowing they lied to me make me feel better? Now I feel they don't like me, and now I feel even worse." She says, laying her head on the table, sobbing. Twilight goes and hugs her.

"It means that they do like you. They like you enough to hurt you, and know you can still move on. Don't worry, your still going to help. I have a feeling, your going to help more than you know." Sunset just cries into her shoulder.

"But I feel that they don't trust me. How do I know I can help them if I don't feel trusted?" Twilight scoffs.

"Do you think I let you kiss him if I didn't trust you? He is the herd master, and I am herd leader. Being from Equestria, you ought to know how much that means. And I doubt Cameron wouldn't have let you kiss him if he didn't trust you. And the song he sang, it was for you. You know it, I saw your blushing. I know it, and I didn't stop it. And, that might be because I want you in the herd. Thing is, I need your consent, and your promise to not hurt yourself by thinking we don't trust you, or dislike you. We care about you. Cameron, he cares about you." Sunset nods.

"Thank you Twilight. And yes, I would love to join your herd. But for right now, I just want to finish my cry in peace. I'll be back in bed in minute." Twilight nods, and goes to bed. And I do too.

The next day we all went to the school. The girls went to practice, and Sunset followed me, while I searched for Flash Sentry and his band. I had remembered that he was the band that had played in the cafeteria when Twilight did her song to the school, so I was going to join him.

I heard him playing in a classroom, off in one of the lesser used halls of the school. Opening the door, he was just going into a song.

The whole song, me and Sunset respectfully kept quiet. When the song was over, me and Sunset clapped. It was a good job.

"Good job. Plenty of emotion. But, can I sing one. You guys might know it. Keep up."

The guys all nodded when we were done.

"Better music, different style. But hey, I actually came here to ask, can I join you for the battle of the bands? I didnt want to cramp on any of the other bands, and the Rainbooms are an all girl band. So, I was just hoping you would maybe let me join. I can play, or sing, whichever you want." Flash mulled it for a second, and then says."Can you step outside while we talk about this?" I nod.

"Yeah, it's a group decision after all. Take your time." Me and Sunset step out into the hall. We chat for a few seconds, before we are called back in.

"So, we decided, yeah. You can join. You'll be lead singer, since it is kind of taxing on me to try and play both lead guitar, and be lead singer. So, the extra vocal will help." I nod.

"Sounds good to me. But, I also have a few songs that I would like to have us sing. Nothing bad, but really cool. You guys okay with that?" They all agree, and the drummer says.

"We never had any song ideas anyway. What songs you have in mind?" I think for a moment.

"Well, we'll bust out the best song last. But for the first song, I have an idea." They all agree, and Sunset says goodbye, and she'll see us at the battle of the bands. After that, we practice.

The next day, everyone was ready, and it was the first day of the battle. Celestia and Luna were on stage, and addressing everyone.

"Thank you all for participating in the first ever Canterlot High Battle of the Bands." Celestia says, to which everyone cheers. Luna steps up with her Mic, and says.

"However, since this is a competition, there can be only one." And with that, everyone in the auditorium started to get angry, and argue how they were going to win. I was sitting with Flash's band, and I could see them arguing with the others. Then, a green mist started to come from everyone.

And it was flowing towards the three sirens. But, I decided to have a little fun, and raised my hand, before making it draw the green mist into my hand. Instead of going towards the three sirens, it all pooled into my hand, and I made it into three little orbs, about the size of a small marble.

The three saw what I did. I stood up, and walk over to them. Getting near, I toss them the three orbs.

"Sorry about that, but cant have you go and taking everything from them. Have to keep them alive after all." The sirens glare at me, before Adagio speaks up.

"What are you? And why are you here?" I smile lightly, before I take of my sunglasses I had put on that morning. My eyes glowed hot pink, and my fangs were displayed by my toothy grin.

"I am Faust's champion. And I am here to keep the peace. Whether that means stopping you, helping you, or flat out killing you. Try not to disturb the peace to much, and we won't have a problem." They meekly nod at my words, and I put my glasses back on, and walk back to my coffin and group, and wait for our band to head up.

The first group to go up, was Snips and Snails, doing a beat box and rap song.

It flopped so hard I heard Satan groan from the coffin.

"I know, it was horrible. Tone was off, they had no lyrics, and that's not even mentioning that the beat was below average. He couldn't make a proper beat box to save a life." I heard a giggle from Satan, and chuckled with her.

The next band to go up was the Rainboom's, the band put together by the girls, and got up to go over to them.

"Hey girls, how's it going?" I ask them.

"Good. Where just waiting on Rarity, and they can go out." Sunset says. Suddenly, I hear a jangling behind me, and turn to see Rarity dressed as a hippy.

"Desparity, why didn't you stop her?" Rarity scoffs, and her entire posture changes to one of annoyance.

"I did. She wouldn't listen. I even tried taking control, and she still made me keep it on, distracted me while she regained control." I nod.

"Hold yourself down, I'll get it off." And she freezes up. I quickly slip the jacket and head band off.

"I can't do much about the legs, but hey, at least you won't look like your from the 60's. Good times, bad attire." Rarity unfreezes, and says.

"Give me back my jacket, please?"

"No, you need to go on. I'll give it back when your done, and don't put it back on, it makes you look silly, not fabulous. Also, girls, you don't want to show your pony forms yet. Do good, but try to contain yourself. Now go!" And start to push them on stage.

Getting up there, I turn to Sunset.

"I'm going to walk around, make sure nobody sabotages them." She nods, and watches them get tuned. I start walking around. Looking about, I see the sirens talking to some people, three girls, and Snips and Snails. The five look to be hypnotized, and then they all nod and move off. I follow them.

They move to the back of the stage, and make their way to the cat walks over head.

As the Rainbooms where starting, the three girls pulled out some large magnets, and tossed them down. Right behind Rarity's legs. I walk over, grab the strings, jerk the magnets back up, and then knock the three out. After that, I see Snips and Snails grabbing one of the stage lights.

They turn it on Fluttershy, making her stand out. She gets scared, and moves out from under it. I go over to the boys, and say.

"That's dangerous. You could severely hurt yourselves playing with this." And push them away. "Go back and sit down." I then correct the light, and head back to the floor. Just as the girls finish.

Snips and Snails thoroughly lost that battle.

After that, it was Flash's bands turn, and we headed up.

As they got ready, I prepared to sing.

As I sang, I looked to the students. They were really liking it, but the Sirens were looking at me with anger. They knew I was competition, and they knew I would be going very far in this battle. I just winked, and finished the song.

The next up was Derpy, and she brought out a saw and bow. Her friends I didn't see what they had, and me and the rest of the band, started to high five each other.

"Hey, Cameron, good job on the song." Flash says. The 7 girls come over and congratulate me, and I say.

"Yeah, thanks. Hey, guys, we need to practice the next song before we head back on. I got a really good song." They all nodded, and we went and practiced the next song.

Coming back in about twenty minutes later, I saw that a lot of the people where angry. Seeing the girls around my coffin, I went to them.

"Hey, what I miss?" Rainbow looks at me with disinterest, and then says.

"So, Bulk Biceps did a violin solo against Snips and Snails, you can guess how that went. He then lost to Octavia, who then lost to us. You guys beat the Earth lovers. Trixie went against Lyra and Bon Bon, and won. The CMC went up and lost to some other group, I forget who, and that group lost as well. I think its Trixie, you, us, and the Dazzlings, who still are going up now. Look."

And the curtains opened.

"Ah, yes, the musical curses. It's harder to break those, as music goes deeper than regular curses, as music can reach the soul much deeper. Its why I love music so much. It has honestly saved me a few times from doing stupid shit." I say, mostly to myself, though Sunset does look over to me with concern. I just wave her off though.

"Great, now its you guys again, and its against Trixie." I nod.

"Yeah, we got this. See you in a moment, Satan, be good." I say to the coffin. Twilight has an OHHH, face after I say that, and looks at the coffin, while everyone else is confused. Me and the band head back to the stage, and take our positions.

As we played, to make the buzz sound for the song, I put my hand out, and absorbed the sound of Flash's guitar as he played, and made the crystals rub against each other as I let the music back out. For the piano, there was still one from a previous contestant, and I used it. It was quite the job I had done.

Everybody started to clap as we finished, and we all waved and moved off stage. Trixie was angry at us when we walked off the stage.

"How? How are you so good?" I look at the rest of the band, and then shrug.

"I sing from my soul. And I dont do it to bolster myself. See ya around Trix."

The next group up was the Rainbooms, and they went on stage and started their song.

I was cheering the whole time, and I was actually surprised they didn't pony up. They did an amazing job, and put themselves into it, I would have thought they would have. I was happy with the song, and had a good time.

The final band to play was Trixie's band, and she played her song. As every other time she played, it was just about her and how great she was. Needless to say, we beat her. And then there was three. Celestia and Luna go up on stage, and make an announcement.

"As there is only three bands left, we have decided to take a vote. The band that has the highest amount of votes, will go on to the finals. The remaining two bands will have one more round, and the better band will go on to the final competition." Celestia says. Luna steps forward and slips the Mic from Celestia.

"Now, students, I ask that you please choose wisely, as this is to be a fair vote. Slips of paper are by the door, take one, write your preferred band down, and place it in the box." After that, they leave the stage for a while, and the three bands go to practice.

I take my band and we go and practice the song we are going to play. Though, when we do, after we finish, I get a bro hug from the band. I understood why, and we continued to practice. It was slightly slower than what we usually were playing, but it would still go over well.

About two hours later, the student body was back in the gym, and everyone was waiting for the results of the vote. I knew that we were going to have to go against the Rainbooms, and we would have to lose. The sirens wouldnt have it any other way. So when the vote came in and the sirens had won it, I turned to the girls, and said good luck. And we where on first.

At the end, I was tearing up. The song was personal to me, as my grandfather had cut me out of his life, abruptly. He stopped talking to me and my mom right after my 12 birthday, and forgot multiple birthdays and Christmases. He just didnt care. And, I didnt want that to happen to me. I don't want to be the workaholic dad that has a child that has no time for their kids. Its what I didnt want for my future family.

As we moved off stage, Twilight and the girls gave me a hug, and I hugged them back. And then I said.

"You better top that. If you don't, I will be angry, because you girls need to finish the fight." They all nod, and move on stage. As they do, I tell the guys I'll be back in a second, grab my coffin, and exit the gym.

As soon as the door is closed, I set my coffin down, and slid down against a wall, trying not to cry as I hope I don't become like the dad in the song. The song got me like this every time. And having experienced a piece of fatherhood before, having done foster care for small baby's and young kids, I had an even deeper fear of actually becoming like that, and it scared me.

After hanging my head for a minute, I felt arms around me, and looked to see Satan hugging me.

She looked much like her adult transformation. She had pasty white skin, with pure white long hair. She had orange eyes, and a black horn with a single thin strip of orange going around it near the tip. Her hands where large, massive really, and looked to be made of bone plates, that tapered down to her elbows. She had a white dress on that had black pencil stripes going up and down, and ended well above her knees. The collar was a strange design, close in style of steampunk. She wore sleeves that covered the ends of her arms, with the same steampunk like style on the ends covering her wrists. And she had huge tits, but I wasnt going to say that.

She had her arms wrapped around me, and she was holding me gently. She then said.

"I love you dad. Don't be upset. You love me, and are there for me. You're a better father than Mologan ever was."

I hug her back. I still didnt have tears, as I dont cry much, but I was still sad. But with Satan hugging me, I started to feel better. After a few more minutes, I was feeling much better. Standing up, Satan gave me one more hug, and stepped back into the coffin. When she did, I closed it up, and picked it back up, and went back into the gym.

The girls had finished their song, I wasnt able to hear it, and mine and their band was called up to the stage. Celestia and Luna stood between us, Celestia holding the Mic.

"Students, since both the contending bands have now played their last song, it is time to choose. So, whoever gets the loudest cheers, gets to go on. So, with that in mind, the first band is the Rainbooms." The gym cheered loudly at the band, lots of hollers and whistles. Luna grabs the Mic from Celestia, and says.

"And the Sentries?" And the gym was brutalized by the roar of cheers. I and others almost went deaf from how loud it was. And once the cheer had finished, Celestia had the Mic once more.

"Well, with that done, the final battle in the Battle of the Bands will be between the Sentries and the Dazzlings. It will be tonight, at the outdoor event center downtown. I will see you all there." And the gym started to empty. I turn to the girls, and they all have shocked expressions. I say one thing.

"Well shit."

Its been a couple of hours since my band won the semi finals of the battle, and me, my band, and the girls were now at Sugercube Corner. Me and the girls were together, while my band was hanging out and celebrating getting into the finals. I was talking to the girls.

"I'm sorry girls. I didnt want us to win, we weren't meant to go to the finals." They all nod.

"Yeah, we got that. Now though, the problem is how do we play the musical counterspell to stop the Dazzlings?" Rainbow says. I nod. Twilight is thinking. Everybody is stumped. I say.

"Couldn't me and my band just play the counterspell?" Twilight looks at me and shakes her head.

"No. You don't have the power of friendship with them like me and the girls do. Its would be fine if you did, but you only are playing with them out of convenience, to help us go higher in the battle. Since your now the one doing the final battle, we cant play the musical counterspell." She hangs her head, lightly banging it on the table. I sigh.

"Then, couldnt I just say we forfeit? And that you girls should go on instead." Sunset shakes her head.

"No. They made it so that you would win. I saw that they were casting a spell the whole time that the you girls where playing. Everybody was happy with the song, but not ecstatic. But when they heard Cameron sing his song, they didnt do anything. Making the crowd like them better." I groan.

"So it was the Dazzlings making us win. That just makes it better." I say sarcastically. Flash apparently had chosen that moment to come over to talk to me, and heard what I said.

"What do you mean that we won because the Dazzlings?" Flash asks. I look at him, and the girls, before, getting a slight smile. Turning to him, I say.

"They rigged it. We didn't win fairly. The Dazzlings might have paid everyone off, or something along those lines, but we didnt win on skill alone." Flash became angry at that.

"What, they wanted to take us on because they think we are the weaker band? Well fuck that. I say we go on tonight and show them that we are better than them." I smirk.

"I agree. And I have one of the perfect songs to do it." And me and the band go and leave to practice.

The time has come for the final battle. Me and the band were ready. We had our songs ready, in case we had to do multiple rounds, and we where going in hot. We were going to win.

As we made it to the outdoor event center, I turn to the guys.

"Alright, I need to tell you guys something. Were going up against magical creatures that are going to make sure we lose. They will put everyone under a spell to make sure we lose. So, we have to play well enough to beat the spell, and get our music in. So, you guys with me?" They all nod, and I fist bump them all. We then have to wait, as the Dazzlings are on first.

(Hey, stop at 3:46. Everything goes according to this, until that moment.)

As the Rainbooms battled the Dazzlings, me and the others got ready. The guys had finally seen what I meant, and I had quickly explained that they too had been under the spell. The only ones who weren't, was me, the girls, and Vinyl Scratch apparently.

When the Rainbooms were brpught down, I stepped up to the Mic we set up. Our speakers we had were cranked up, and we were about to do battle.

"Hey Dazzlings. How about you pic on a band your own size?" And I turn to my group, nod, and we play.

Lucky to say, the Dazzlings werent to happy about us playing that song. We finished, and got ready to play another.

The thing is, I left my coffin with Sunset. The chains still covering it.

Satan came out of the coffin, and did battle with the three sirens magical avatars. We both sang our respective songs, but our band was shredding the competition, the power of Disturbed's awesome music overpowering the Dazzlings pitiful attempt at music.

It was a bloodbath with the avatars. Satan shredded them, decimated them, and ate them. Literally. She had the magical cores of the three avatars in her hand, and landed next to me. The Dazzlings were down, out of breath, and out of magic. Everyone was looking at them and at us. I turn to Satan, and nod.

And she eats the three cores.

As she does, the three Sirens shriek, and the gems on their necklaces shatter. As they do, their voices are silenced, and I cringe. They dont deserve to become mute like this.

After Satan has finished eating, she returns to the coffin, and it closes over her, the chains wrapping back around. Everyone cheered at our band, but I held up my hand.

Everyone, this is no reason to cheer. Tonight, I have shown you how easy it is to fall to hating each other. Just because someone does something to make it happen. I arrived here from Equestria, and saw that all of you got angry at each other, after the Dazzlings song about the battle. Each of you, was at each others throats. Each of you, would have done anything to win, even if it was wrong. And some of you, were coerced into doing so. I stopped you five, and you know who you are you five, from finishing your sabatoge, but it happened. And yet, you all will still act, tomorrow, like nothing is wrong, which is the proper thing to do. Move on from this. But become better for it. And also, while on the subject of hating people, stop the hate on Sunset. She doesnt deserve the hate you give her, because you now should know the hate from giving it to each other. So, now, I must do the job I came here for." I walk away from the Mic, and over to the Sirens. They had all grouped together, and when they saw me walk over, they huddled together some more, and tried to whimper.

Key word, tried.

They couldn't. I could see why. Their throats had a small scar over them, right were the voice box would be. It was from the shattering of their gems, and the taking of their magic. The price for them, was the taking of their voices entirely.

I got closer, and when I was close enough, I crouched down. Looking at them, I spoke.

"You three didnt deserve to loose your voices like that. I can gice them back to you though. However, if I do, I damn well better not hear you have gone back to brainwashing people, and feeding off of them. Do you understand me?" They all nod. I nod too.

"Now, again, I can give you back your voice. But it will hurt. Do you still wish to proceed?" They look at each other, and then nod. I sigh, and motion for them to come stand and come to me. They do.

When they get to me, I put my right pointer finger on Adagio's throat, right on the scar

"I'm sorry." And I shoot a small sliver of crystal into her throat, through the scar. She looks to cry out in pain, before falling to the floor, clutching at her neck, mouth open in a silent scream.

I cant see it, but I know what the crystal is doing. It is spreading throughout her neck, creating a new voice box, and attaching to the nerves in her spine. It was painful, because it was brute forcing its way into her body, digging itself into the meat of her neck. After a minute of her silent scream, her sisters next to her looking on in horror, she starts to actually scream in pain. Her voice is back. A moment later, she stops screaming.

She shakely releases her throat, and where the scar from her voice box being removed, is now a crystal, embedded in her neck. Its the color of ice, and about the size of a quarter. She looks at me, and slowly says.

"What did you do?" With anger, fear, and pain. I kindly, and gently answer.

"I used some of my magic, to give you a second chance. My magic gave you a new voice box. The pain came from the crystal that held the magic having to spread through you neck, digging into your nerves, and into your spine. You can talk now." She looks at me, then her sisters, before looking back at me.

"Why are you giving us a second chance?" I laugh lightly.

"Why? Well, if I didn't give you a second chance, then my daughter doesn't deserve one either. Nor does Tophreltes. Nor even me, for I have done some pretty bad shit too. I gave you a second chance, because you were just trying to survive, and you got a little greedy and tried to get more power. Sunset was the same way. Does she not deserve a second chance? Yes, she does, and so do you. Now, I need to help your sisters, so you need to hold one of them down." She looks at me, and then I move to Sonata, before putting my finger on her throat, on the same spot, and doing the same thing I did to Adagio.

She too writes on the ground, before her voice comes back and she stops screaming. I then look at Aria, and she has a look of grim determination, and lifts her head up, exposing her throat. I do the same to her as I did to the others, but she just grits her teeth, and doesn't scream. When its done, she nods to me, and I turn to the crowd again.

"As I said to them, everyone deserves a second chance, unless they have done something that is truly unforgivable. They were just trying to survive, and got a little hungry for power. Sunset did much the same thing. They deserve a second chance. If they don't. Then my daughter doesn't. She is a literal demon, who was forced to kill and eat others of her kind. Same for Tophreltes, who tried to kill me to save her little sister. And neither would you. Again, all of you hated each other, yet you will also forgive each other for doing so by tomorrow. So, I order you, to do the same for them. And if I hear about you hating on them or Sunset, then I will be having some words with all of you." After that, I walked off stage, and the sirens did too. The Rainbooms came up to us.

"Okay, Cameron, that was actually more awesome than me. So, I cant be mad at you for stealing our thunder." I jockingly scoff.

"I stole your thunder? Skittles, you stole MINE! I told you I had it handled." Rainbow nods.

"True. So, the Dazzlings have been defeated. What you going to do with them?" I glare at her.

"You assume that I am going to punish them. They already were punished. If you didnt see, or hear when they were screaning when Satan ate the three cores, their voices suddenly cut out. They lost their voices. They would have been muted for life by my hand, just because they wanted to survive. So do not assume that I am going to punish them. Now, you girls, I will punish. I told you I had a plan, and you ruinded it. Admittedly, I did too, but that was also because the Dazzlings figured out what was happening." Thats when Adagio steps forward.

"Actually, we didnt figure anything out. We just thought your band would be easier to beat, and we could get the Rainbooms out of the way. Seems we where wrong." I look to them and nod.

"Anyways, you girla are going to be their second friends. I'm first, your second." That surprises everyone, the Dazzlings especially.

"Wait, where your friends? But we tried to take over the world, why are you bwing our friend?" Aria says.

"For the same reason you deserve a second chance. Because friends will make it easier to become better. So, girls, what do you say?" The girls all look to each other, and Sunset is giving us a smirk. They finally look back to me, and say.

"Fine." All at once. I nod, and turn to Twilight.

"Well its about time to head home. Do you want to make her official or should I?" The rest of the girls look slightly confused, with Sunset, being the least, and starting to realize the quickest. Twilight smiles.

"Well, it is yours, so its your responsibility to induct new members. Its just mine and the girls job to give the okay, and I am sure they would be fine with it." She says, happily. I nod, and walk over to Sunset, who looks at me with wide eyes, trembling lightly at whatever is going to happen. I then lean down slightly to kiss her.

We slowly kiss, before I pull back, and say.

"Sunset Shimmer, you are now a part of my herd, and so you are now mine until I release you. Is this acceptable?" She looks at me, and then gets a slightly goofy grin.

"Yes, master." And kisses me again. When we break, I say.

"No master, unless alone." She nods, and holds my hand as I turn to the guys approaching. Flash comes forward.

"Hey, Cameron, thanks for helping us in the battle. You were a great singer, and your song choices were awesome." I chuckle.

"Thanks, but honestly its your guys band, and you guys are the ones that deserve the trophy for winning. I really dont care for It." They look slightly surprised, then just shake their heads.

"Fine. Hope to see you again sometime. And, you too Twilight." He says, blushing lightly. I growl, and put my arm around her, and he backs off.

"She is mine, Flash. Keep your hands off." I say politely. He nods, and he motions for the band to head on stage, which they all go on to talk to Celestia and Luna. Turning back to the group near me, I ask Aria to bring me my coffin. At my request, she heads off, while the Rainbooms ask me questions.

"Yeah, about that, who was that who came from the coffin?" Rainbow asks. I smile.

"The devil. The Fallen Angel Lucifer. Abaddon, Apollyon, and the ruler of Hell. My daughter, Satan." As Aria arrives with the coffin. I take it by the chains, and transfer it to my back. Everyone but Twilight is pale.

"Wait, you have the lord of demons, as your daughter?" Applejack asks. I turn to Twilight, and shake my head while smiling.

"Nope. She is not the king of hell. At least, not yet. She has to make her way to the top, through the remaining seven demon lords above her. And she was number twelve, the weakest." The Sirens knew what I meant, but the other girls were still pale.

"So, darling, your daughter has to kill seven demons that are more powerful than her? How?" I think for a second.

"Well, shes the lowest on the totem pole. So, that would mean eleven above her. But I killed one, Kudzulus, and befriended on, Tophreltes. Egrtoth is being held hostage by Singrang, the Demon king. So, that means she might be sympathetic to our cause. Wait, Tirek. He was another Devonport, and I killed him. She has six to beat. Mologan, Singrang, and four others. Thats a lot easier to fight. And the good thing is, Hades, the king of the Underworld and Warden of Tarturus, has agreed to let me put Satan on the throne as demon king of the Tarturus." The girls all just nod, and change the subject. Adagio speaks first.

"So, you said you had to return to Equestria. How, we never were able to find a way back?" I say to them.

"Well, follow us then. Though, I need to speak to Principal Celestia first, about keeping my grades going while I am gone. That way I don't get kicked out, and if I need to come back and help with something, I can do so as a student, and it won't be considered as anything weird." They all nod, and I go find Celestia.

After I talk with her for a bit, to which she promises to keep me in the books as a student in case I need to help here again. We all then leave, and head back to Canterlot High. Reaching it and the portal, I told the Sirens.

"The portal is the base of this statue." They look incredulous.

"This is were it went! We looked for the last forty years for this, since we couldnt find where it had gone! They made it this statue." Aria says. I look at her.

"Rude question, but how old are you? If you dont want to answer it, how long have you been here?" She looks at me.

"Well, I would say I am roughly 423 years old. The other two are older than me, Sonata by a couple years, and Adagio by about four years. We've been here in this world for about a three quarters that. About forty years ago, this was just a chunk of rock in a cave. But one day, we went back, and the cave was being mined for marble, and the portal in it was gone. Guess it was turned into this statue, and brought here." Aria says. I nod, and turn to look at it a bit. Then I sigh, ad say.

"Well, its been fun y'all, but I want to go home. My other three little ones need a father, and I cant do that from here. Also, the demons are attacking that world, not this one. So, love you all, and I will see you soon." As I smirk. Turning to Twilight, I say.

"See you on the flip side. After the head trip wears off." She groans.

"I agree, the trip here is so migraine inducing." Sunset and the Dazzlings nod.

"Well, bye for now." And I head through the portal, and have a bad drug trip. Again, I know they dont actually make you see pretty colors, but the point stands.

Reaching the other side, I fall out, on my face. After taking a second to catch my breath, I turn over, holding my head.

"God, my head hurts from that." I see someone come into my view, and Fluttershy asks.

"Um, do you mean the faceplant, or the trip?" She says it so innocently though, that I start hurting in my heart more than my head.

"Both, and now your hurting my heart with cuteness. But still, I need to get up, and then I need to go to bed. First though, I need to get Satan out the coffin." As it had also come with us.

When I got the chains off it, I opened the lid, and inside I found a teenage girl version of Satan asleep inside. She still had the mask of her younger self, and the long hair, but she kept the dress from her adult form, and the larger set of arms, now more like my claws when I transformed into my were-Howler form, plus her chest was still developed, but not the almost G cup size as her adult form. They were now about a B cup I would say. I can only guess sizes. She also had a pair of white leggings now, that covered her legs. When lifted slightly, I could see her legs were now covered in the same style of bone like plates that were on her arm. The only change is, they looked similar to a wolf's legs, and were thicker than her legs used to be, and again, made of bone. I decided to sleep on it ,and lifted her up and took her home with me. She slept on my back as I carried her.

When I got home, I saw that Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Applebloom where camping in the living room, with a pillow fort. I checked on them, and saw they were asleep. Heading upstairs, I put Satan in her room, and tucked her in. Heading out, I saw Applejack and Fluttershy had followed me, along with Twilight. Twilight gave me a hug, and says.

"I'll see you in your room. I would like some cuddles." I nod, give her a peck on the lips, and she heads off. Watching for a sec as she enters my room, I then turn to the other two.

"Hey Aj, Flutters, what's up?" I ask, slightly tired, but good enough to talk.

"Just wanted to check and see if your okay is all. And, were taking our turn watching the little ones." I nod.

"Sorry about leaving like I did. All I knew was that something was wrong, and that it was bad. Faust just grabbed me, and practically threw me into the portal. She told me what to do, but point is. I'm sorry. Please tell the other girls if you see them before me." They nod, and Fluttershy says.

"Your fine. We understand, especially since a few nights back, Faust talked to us." I look confused.

"When?" I ask. Fluttershy continues.

"She came by a few days after we got back from your world. She sat us all down, and told us of what your job is, so to say. That, and she also said that you might be called on sometimes, mostly at random, to help others in other dimensions. Like when Link was here, but the other way around." I nod. I am going to have to talk to Faust again sometime soon and thank her. For now though.

"Well, I'll talk to her sometime again. For now, I am tired. I love you two, goodnight. Tell the CMC the same, please?" They nod, and I give AJ and Fluttershy a kiss, and then head to my room. Heading in, I see Twilight in her pajamas, a lavender top with her cutie mark over her left breast, above her heart, and a pair of indigo pants. I head to my closet, grab my sleep pants, and get into them, taking off my shirt. Heading to my bed, I get in and Twilight immediately cuddles me. I dont mind, as I cuddle back.
