Sonic, Shadow and the Equestria Girls
A date with Dazzle
Previous ChapterNext ChapterChapter 4: a date with dazzle.
As promised, sonic and shadow went into the band room, there they saw sunset, Pinkie, Rainbow dash, Applejack, and two girls neither of them recognised. One had white skin, violet-blue hair, light blue eyes, wearing a baby blue shirt, purple skirt and boots with a lot of diamonds on her outfit, the other had yellow skin, pink hair, blue eyes, and was wearing a white shirt, green skirt and boots and butterfly hair clip.
"Wow, you actually came, I assumed you'd ditch because, 'i'm nuts'" sunset said quoting shadow.
"Shut it," shadow scoffed.
"Ok, sunset, why ARE they here?" rainbow dash looked annoyed.
"For some reason, neither of them are being affected by the dazzlings, we need any friend we can get," sunset assured her.
"Great, only other two and it had to be them," rainbow scoffed.
"What's that about?" the purple haired girl asked in a british accent.
"We beat her at dodgeball," the brothers said in unison.
"That makes sense," sunset said.
"Anyway, you said you would prove that magic exists, so get to it," shadow said.
"You told them what?" Rainbow dash exclaimed.
"Well, honestly if we didn't, someone would," AppleJack admitted.
"Okay, fine," rainbow dash said as everyone except, sonic, shadow and sunset grabbed an instrument.
(begin playing a rock cover of time to be awesome.)
Rainbow, "I know the world can get you down, things don't work out quite the way that you thought, feeling like all your best days are done, your fears and doubts are all you've got! But there's a light! Shining deep inside, all of your fears and doubts so just squash em! And let it shine for all the world to see, that it is time, yeah time to be awesome!"
At that moment, rainbow dash glowed blue and grew pony ears, tail and wings.
Rainbooms: "dum, duh, ah, ah, Awesome! It's time to be, so Awesome! dum, duh, ah, ah, Awesome! It's time to be, so Awesome!"
The other for also grew the ears and tails, but only the yellow one grew wings.
When they ended the song, sonic and shadow were dumbfounded, at what they just saw.
"How the-" sonic began but got cut off by pinkie saying, "a couple of months ago, a magical pony princess, came here from a magical land called equestria, because Sunset Shimmer, who wasn't as nice as she is now, stole her magical crown, and sunset put the crown on and turned into a fiery, she-demon who wanted to take over equestria with an army of teen zombies, no offense," "none taken," "so then the princess used her own magic to power us up, which gave us pony ears and tails, and for some reason even though, she left and took her crown with her, we do it again every time we play music really awesomely!"
"Ok, from anyone, who isn't crazy?" shadow asked.
"Nope, that was purty much spot on," AppleJack said.
"Ok, so then the dazzlings have magic like this too?" sonic asked to which they all nodded.
"It's our best bet, unfortunately, twilight, the princess pinkie mentioned, has the most information on magic, yet is all the way in equestria, and the bridge between our worlds is closed for who knows how long!" the purple haired one said.
"Well…" sunset started.
"Well what?" the purple haired one started only to be cut off by pinkie, "Rarity, don't forget, sunset is from equestria, maybe she has some back-up portal!"
"Well, no, but I have a way we can at least get some answers," sunset said leaving the room, "I'll be right back."
When sunset came back she was holding a homemade journal with her symbol on it, "It may not be a portal, but this should let us get a message to SOMEONE in equestria." she took out a pen and started writing, "Dear whoever may receive this message, it is imperative that this message be given to Princess Twilight Sparkle, three girls seem to be using magic to spread disharmony and negativity in the form of music, we have no idea who they are or how they are doing this, but we need help. Sunset Shimmer."
"Really glad you said that out loud, I mean you can't even read that!" Sonic said to which she replied, "It's ponish, and in said language, it's decently legible. And now… we wait."
Sonic blinked and said, "i'ma go and get some breakfast, tell me if anything happens."
After he left, pinkie pie came up to shadow and said, "Hey shady!"
"Stop calling me shady or I'll…" shadow started he realised for some reason he couldn't think of a threat, "just don't."
Back with sonic who was almost to the cafeteria until he heard a voice that he'd pretty much had hammered into his head, "Hey, you're sonic right?"
Sonic turned and saw Adagio Dazzle herself leaning on a wall, neither of her lackies around. She continued her thought, "You really caught my eye yesterday, with your, charming looks and all, I was wondering, maybe you'd want to catch a movie later?"
"Is she asking me out?" sonic thought to himself, his first instinct was to decline the offer, until he got an Idea, "Ok, didn't have anything to do tonight anyway."
"Great, I'll swing by your place around 7," Adagio said walking away.
"Can't wait," sonic said, as soon as she was out of earshot he said to himself, "looks like the odds just tipped in our favor."
Adagio met back up with her bandmates, "Well girls, by tonight, I'll know exactly why the blue boy can reject our magic."
"Are you sure this is a good idea, what if he figures out what we're up to?" Aria said.
"Come on Aria, this is like, the first date adagio's been on since that incident with the centaur, and we all know how that went," Sonata smiled.
"This isn't a date, im just letting him think it is so I can figure out what makes him different from everyone else," Adagio said.
"Sure, you are," sonata said.
"I am," Adagio yelled smacking her.
"Well with your people skills this can only go well," Aria said sarcastically.
About two hours later, sonic met up with sunset to see if anything had happened he didn't need to figure that out since she was ecstatic.
"Sonic, good timing, by matter of luck, Twilight not only was the first one to find the book, but was able to figure out a way to get here, she said to meet her in the courtyard," she said.
"Sweet, finally we can end this weirdness," sonic said following sunset outside to the wondercolts statue. The base of the statue began to glow, then as if it were liquid, a girl with lavender skin, dark purple hair with a streak of pink, and wearing a blue shirt, and purple skirt and boots, and a purple and green puppy stepped through.
"Sunset shimmer!" the girl who sonic assumed was twilight exclaimed.
"Twilight!" sunset said getting into a hug with her.
The little dog walked up to sonic and somehow said, "How's it going?"
"WHAT THE WHAT?!" sonic said shocked.
"Oh, yeah," the dog said, "forgot i'm a dog here, names spike," spike let out his paw as if to shake hands.
"Sorry, it's been a weird couple of days," sonic said taking
"No big, I get a kick out of scaring people anyway," spike said with a grin.
"So who's this?" twilight said in response to seeing sonic.
"That's sonic dark, new transfer student, for some reason the dazzlings magic doesn't affect him or his brother," sunset explained.
"Sunset told me about the magic stuff, I noticed before hand with the dazzlings but I assumed it was musical hypnotism," sonic said.
"You weren't far off, but I do know what we're dealing with,"twilight said, "we need the girls for this to work."
Sunset took out her phone and sent a mass-text to the other five, "they're on the way."
They all met up in the hallway and exchanged hellos, they went into the cafeteria to confront the dazzlings, sonic, sunset, and shadow went to the back of the cafeteria to watch from afar in case things got messy. Adagio was in the middle of saying something about the battle of the bands when twilight interrupted, "There's not gonna be a battle!"
The girls locked hands as twilight yelled, "Friendship is Magic!" which made it all the more awkward when nothing happened.
"So, is something supposed to happen or…" sonic started.
"This is honestly the corniest thing I have ever seen in my life, and with silver around that's saying something," shadow said.
"Wait, who's silver?" sunset asked.
"Oh, he's our other brother, he's on a trip with grandma or something, he'll be back sometime," sonic said.
The girls were a little surprised by the fact this time nothing happened.
"Uh, weren't there rainbows an lasers last time?" AppleJack questioned.
Adagio decided to take advantage of this little outburst, "Well, aren't these girls confidant, saying there won't be a battle and that they already won, a little cocky don't you think?"
"But we did-" Twilight started before all the anger in the room was directed towards them.
"Run," rainbow said as they all left the room. The group went to the band room and tried to figure out what went wrong.
"I don't get it, that should have worked!" twilight said.
"All you did was hold hands and yell,'Friendship is Magic!'" shadow said.
"Well, now were back to square one, how are they even doing this anyway!?" AppleJack asked.
"They aren't regular girls, back in equestria, they're syrens, magical, aquatic creatures that could influence others into doing anything they demand, in order to keep this power, they need to feed off of negative energy, that's probably why they're making everyone fight," Twilight said.
"So they're turning the school into an all you can eat buffet," sunset said.
"Yes, but I don't know why, they only need to get a few people into and argument and they'll be satisfied for the rest of the day, this is enough disharmony to choke a wendigo," twilight said worried.
"So there going over there limit on purpose, why?" shadow asked.
"Hey, last time we used magic, we took it from the crown sunset was wearing," pinkie pointed out.
"As if we were using her own power against her!" rarity said.
"You're right, maybe we can the same to the dazzlings," Fluttershy cut in.
"Yes, I can write a musical counterspell, then we can play it and undo the syrens magic," twilight said, "but we'll need everyone in the same place for it to work."
"The next time that'll be will be the battle of the bands," sonic said.
"Then looks like the rainbooms are in," Rainbow dash exclaimed.
While they were discussing what would happen next, sunset went over to sonic and shadow.
"Hey, why aren't you helping em?" sonic asked.
"Well, after what happened last time, me staying as far away from magic as possible is probably the best choice," sunset admitted.
"Hmph, you know, you really don't seem like the person to do that kind of stuff," shadow said.
"I was a different person than, one who didn't care who she hurt," said Sunset, "Come on, class will start soon."
At the end of school sonic and shadow discussed what exactly their plan was.
"So, what if the musical counter spell doesn't work?" shadow asked.
"Well, I have a plan to find any other options," sonic smirked.
"Which is?"
"You'll see," sonic snickered.
Shadow noticed sonic being weird since they got home, he only practiced for like an hour, then took a shower, actually tried to tame his hair, and put on better than usual clothes. Mephiles also noticed this.
"Got plans tonight?" he asked.
"Yeah, a date with this girl I met at school," sonic said checking the time on his phone, "she'll be here soon."
"Okay, but for the love of chaos, please don't try anything," mephiles sighed.
"Relax, nothing that major ever happens on the first date," sonic scoffed.
He stopped in the middle of the hallway to see shadow staring at him with disappointment, "So, potentially deadly, mythical creatures in school and you're concerned about a date?"
"Lay off me, shad, this date is important," sonic said as the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it," shadow said.
He opened the door and was shocked to see, out of anyone, it was adagio.
"And what, may I ask, are you doing here?" shadow demanded.
"Hmp, he's catching on, oh well, he's not the one who concerns me," adagio thought, then said, "I'm here for my date, emo."
This caught shadow off guard, "You… and… What?"
"You know, you should be a lot nicer to your potential, future sister in law," adagio said walking past him.
"What?" shadow still wasn't making any sense of this, "Sonic knows what she's capable of, why would he…" then realisation struck, "Sonic, you sly dog," he thought with a grin.
Sonic came into the room, "hello, adagio, looking lovely as ever," he said secretly winking to shadow.
"Not to bad yourself, big blue," adagio replied.
"Shall we?" sonic said pointing toward the door.
"We shall," adagio said taking his hand.
The two left and mephiles came into the room, "I missed her didn't I?"
"Relax, Something tells me this date won't go anywhere," shadow smirked.
"And you're just jealous, your brother actually has a date," his dad said.
"Hmp, I could get a date with anyone at anytime!" shadow shot back.
"Ok, what about that, Pinkie girl?"
"Oh god, anyone but her!" shadow sighed.
Neither Sonic, nor adagio had a drivers license so they had to take the bus to the mall. Sonic didn't seem to mind but he knew adagio was annoyed.
They entered and a familiar face saw them while on his break.
"Hey, sonic!" the couple turned to see tails walking up to them.
"Whatcha doing?" he said
"Hey tails, Adagio and I are going to a movie, but the way, you know where the theatre is?" sonic replied.
"Oh, it's on your left at the end," tails said.
"Thank you," sonic said as he and adagio went on.
"You really have a way with people, you know that," adagio said trying to sound flattering.
"Well, I wouldn't say that, but it is pretty easy for me to make friends," sonic admitted, "I could say the same about you."
"It's a talent, my sisters and I have always possessed," adagio replied.
"So the other two in your band are your sisters?" sonic asked.
"Yeah, at least we think, none of us really ever met our parents," adagio said.
"Wow, really?" sonic said sympathetically.
"Yeah, we grew up in foster homes, I had to grow up quickly so the other two wouldn't have to, nowadays we live on our own in an apartment, I have a part-time job to pay the bills, as does sonata, although Aria has more money then both of us and she rarely leaves the apartment," adagio said.
The two came up to the theatre. They saw three options for movies: Daring do, Chao in space 3, or the unsilenced.
"So what do you feel like watching?" sonic asked taking out his wallet.
"Well, I have been waiting to see that new horror movie," adagio answered pointing to the unsilenced poster.
"You sure, I've heard it was voted scariest movie in the last decade," sonic warned her.
"Pa-lease, I've seen scarier things in equestria," she thought, "I think I can handle it."
"Ok," sonic said paying for tickets.
(Welp, place your bets, how bad do you think this will blow up in adagio's face?)
Remember when adagio said she could handle it, she couldn't. Several times throughout the movie, there was a jumpscare that caused her to either scream, come up to sonic for protection or both. By the end her face was as red as an apple.
"Uh-um, Anyone would be scared of that," adagio said as three girls about tails' age ran by yelling, "That Was Awesome!" "Ah can't wait to see it again!" "eh, supernatural happenings had a better ending."
"Dang it," adagio said.
"You don't need to be embarrassed, everyone gets scared sometimes," sonic said.
"Oh, really," adagio said not buying it.
"I'ma let you in on something," sonic said, "I am terrified of orcas."
"Wait, Orcas?" adagio questioned giggling.
"Well, yeah I mean they're call killer whales!" sonic said. The two bursted out laughing.
"You know, I really enjoyed this," adagio said.
"Me too," sonic replied. Before either of them realised what happened, adagio leaned in and kissed sonic on the lips. While that happened their pendants collided. What neither of them noticed was a jolt of blue energy, fly out of sonic's and into adagio's, turning it a deep purple.
When the two released adagio said, "I gotta go, I imagine Sonata's set something on fire by now, see you tomorrow."
"See ya," sonic called out.
Adagio thought to herself for a moment, "hm, maybe I should call all this off," then her pendant had a jolt of energy, she felt pain for a moment, when it passed her eyes had turned a deep blue, "what is this I feel, it feels… Great, And I know… I need more!"
