It had been a month since the Fall Formal, Sunset and Cozy were entering the school ignoring the glares from everyone. Cozy frowned “Why haven't contacted Princess Celestia yet.”

Sunset sighed “Trying to talk to her had always been difficult for me. I’ll get around to it soon enough but it’s not easy for me to do this. We always had a rocky relationship, trying to deal with the pony who is essentially is the positive side of you isn’t easy.”

Cozy frowned “The showcase is starting today, are sure your up for performing in front of so many.”

Sunset smiled “It will be fine don’t worry.” After they separated the rest of the day was pretty simple until the period were everyone was setting up for the showcase. Sunset approached Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle as they were painting one of the banners “Do you mind if I help?”

Apple Bloom scowled “Go away, we’ve got a handle on this. Go and cause misery to someone else!” Scootaloo saw Sunset’s forlorn look and turned to Apple Bloom fire burning in her eyes, Apple Bloom frowned at Scootaloo “Did something happen?!”

Scootaloo snarled “Are you kidding me?! You know what you bloody did, don’t deny it! That is the worst way to react to someone trying to help, you just politely tell the no!”

Meanwhile Sunset was sitting next to Cozy who had an arm wrapped around the slightly older girl “I don’t understand. why did she act like that towards me. Did I do something wrong?”

Applejack growled her arms shaking with fury “Ah’m going to have some serious words with her when we get home!”

Rainbow walked over to Applejack and placed a hand on her shoulder “Yes you should but not when your angry like this. It is too easy to say the wrong things when your angry.”

Wallflower smiled “I’m sure she’ll come around with time, it did take more time for some us as well but we’re all friends now. We will stick together no matter what.”

Gilda grinned “If anyone tries to mess with you, we’ve got your back isn’t that right Fluttershy.” Fluttershy nodded with a smile.

Sunset smiled sadly “Well after this I will have introduce some new girls around, they enrolled a few weeks ago but needed some time before they could come. Maybe they can learn a bit about how who I am now before they learn about what I did.”

Pinkie grinned “Maybe I can throw a party for them afterwards, they might just fun to hang around with.”

Sunset nodded with a smile only for Principal Celestia to call out “I’m glad you’re all working for this occasion, in fact this may be the most exciting event we’ve had at this school since the Fall Formal.” To Sunset’s surprise only a few eyes turned her way before looking away just as quickly.

After the assembly Sunset was waiting at the front of the school only to see three girls walk in. One a pale yellowy colour with outrageous orange hair, another a light purple colour with two dark purple pigtails that had a streak of teal and the final girl was a light blue with dark blue and light blue hair in a ponytail. Sunset smiled “I’m Sunset Shimmer, it’s pleasure to meet you. May inquire about what brought you here to the school?”

The pale yellow girl smiled “I’m Adagio Dazzle, the purple one is Aria and other one is Sonata. We found that there was something magical about this place and we decided to come here.”

Sunset laughed “Well this is quite a magical place, follow me and I can show you around. You may also want to join our musical showcase, it is something that has been set up recently.”

Sonata whined “I’m hungry Adagio, can’t we get some Tacos from somewhere.”

Aria rolled her eyes “You are such a child Sonata, we came here for a reason and it was not so you could stuff your face with Tacos! Your seriously the worst.”

Adagio was not having this today and shouted “You two be quiet, I’m trying to talk to Miss Shimmer here!” She then smiled at Sunset “sorry about but you know how sisters can be.”

Sunset shook her head “I can’t” she then noticed the necklace with a red gem around Adagio’s neck “That is a really pretty gem that you have around your neck, do you mind if I have a look at it?”

Adagio frowned “It’s quite precious to us you see, we all have one and it is something we don’t want to lose. So I’m sorry but no.” Sunset nodded with a smile as she continued to escort them around the school.

Pinkie smiled “So what were they like?”

Sunset shrugged “They were a little strange but nothing too out there. The two younger ones seemed like the argued a lot while their older sister kept them in line.”

Before any more questions could be asked the three girls walked in and began singing. The group of nine girls were quick to notice as students began fighting only for Wallflower to shout “Okay I’m not having any of that!” With a single pulse from her gem everyone in the room who fighting stopped, the group of nine magical girl summoned their magical forms approached and frowned “Explain why you were doing that?”

Adagio looked at them and sighed “Well we’re Sirens from Equestria and we feed off negative energy using our gems. We have barely been able to sustain ourselves for last one thousand years on what little magic is here.”

Sunset tapped the gems and they changed turning to a purple colour. Sunset smiled as the three girls gasped “What did you do? The hunger is gone!”

Wallflower blinked as she looked at the gems “They now run on the same type of harmonic magic that we do.” The group of nine began bringing the new students to their table with a smiles on their faces.


Author's Note

My reasoning is that the Memory stone is more powerful than the Dazzlings' magic, it was able to overpower the mental protection of the Geodes while the Dazzlings even at full power couldn't mind control the Rainbooms.
