Things were rather grim for the Rainbooms as they had now found themselves in quite the terrible situation. Not only were they tricked by Trixie and were now stranded underneath the amphitheater stage in the storage room, not only were the Dazzlings about to sing to the entire crowd of students which would allow them to gain their power back, but the worst of it all, was you. You were now apparently on the Dazzlings' side as you had changed in more ways than one.

Currently, it was nighttime as we see Trixie and the Illusions performing up on stage. The camera zoomed to the bottom part of the stage until eventually we see the Rainbooms. Most of them were sitting while Rarity was standing and fanning herself. There was a brief moment of silence before we cut to Rainbow Dash who was currently trying to break the exit door down but was unsuccessful as she groaned slightly from hitting the door so hard.

Applejack: Give it up Rainbow Dash. You've been tryin' at this for hours. It's not gonna open.

She said irritated while Rainbow rubbed her shoulder. Fluttershy sighed.

Fluttershy: I can't deal with the fact that Y/N turned against us. We... we made a mistake... a big mistake.

Rarity: ** She's right darlings. He's normally a sweet and chivalrous boy to be around. But now... now all that was left of him was pain... and evil.

All of them nodded in agreement.

Twilight Sparkle: It's all our fault. We never should have sent him away. The more I think about him, the more guilty I feel. I'm starting to realize something else, maybe it doesn't even matter that we're trapped down here. I don't think the counter-spell would've worked anyway.

She said while feeling sad and guilty. Applejack spoke up as she went to Twilight.

Applejack: Of course it would have worked, Twilight. Assumin' a certain band member didn't try to hog the spotlight the whole time we were tryin' to play it!

She said while glaring at Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash: Hey! If you wanna tell Twilight she's getting a little too caught up trying to be the new leader of this band, you don't have to be all cryptic about it.

She said while jumping to conclusions.

Rarity: She was talking about you, Rainbow Dash!

Rainbow Dash: Me?! I'm just trying to make sure my band rocks as hard as it needs to!

Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy & Pinkie Pie: OUR BAND!!

They yelled at Rainbow Dash.

Twilight Sparkle: But why wasn't it working? I should know what to do. How could I not know what to do? How could I have failed like this?

She said in sadness. Sunset grew more and more worried as no one else seemed to notice what Twilight was going through as they began to argue.

Applejack: It might've been your idea to start a band, but it's not just your band, Rainbow Dash!

Rainbow Dash: I'm the one who writes all the songs!

Fluttershy: I write songs! You just never let us play any of them!

Rarity: I had the most perfect outfits for us to wear!

Applejack: Again with the costumes! No one cares what we're wearin'!

Rarity: I care, Applejack! So sorry if I enjoy trying to make a creative contribution to the band!

Pinkie Pie: Hey! Anybody here remember fun?! I'll give you a hint: It's the exact opposite of being in the Rainbooms!

Rainbow Dash: I wish I never asked any of you to be in my band!

She said furiously.

Rarity: I wish I'd never agreed to be in it!!!!

She said furiously also.

Fluttershy and Applejack: Me neither!

They soon started arguing and yelling before something unfortunate happened...

The green mist appeared as it was coming from the Rainbooms! Sunset grew more nervous at seeing this as she then looked at where the mist was going... it was going above stage!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, back outside, Trixie and the Illusions had finally finished with their song as it was now the Dazzlings turn. Speaking of said Dazzlings, they were presently standing backstage while wearing new outfits.

Trixie and her bandmates passed by the Dazzlings with cocky smirks.

Trixie Lulamoon: Try to top that!

She said smugly before walking past them and leaving.

Adagio Dazzle: ** Oh, gosh! I don't know if we can!

She said sarcastically which made the other two laugh.

???: Ha! And she thinks she's so great and powerful!

They heard someone say as they looked to see you walking towards them with an evil smirk. They smirked as well upon seeing you.

Adagio Dazzle: Ah, Y/N dear. So nice of you to come by. We actually wanted to bring something up with you.

You grew curious by that.

(Y/N): Oh, really? What is it?

Adagio Dazzle: Aria, Sonata, and I got to talking and we decided... that we wish to make you an official member of our band.

Your eyes widened.

(Y/N): You... you want me to join your band?

The three of them nodded simultaneously.

Adagio Dazzle: But, before you can actually join, you're going to need... this.

She turned to the others who nodded before they all started vocalizing. The green mist started coming out of their pendants and it soon came together into a ball. The ball glowed and shined before it flashed and dissipated as another pendant appeared in its place.

The pendant floated onto Adagio's hand as they turned to you.

Adagio Dazzle: Put this on Y/N, and you shall not only join our band... but you will also be... one of us. So... what do you say?

She asked while presenting the pendant to you. The three of them smirked evilly as you stared at the shiny gem sitting comfortably in Adagio's palm. You smirked sinisterly before looking back up at her.

(Y/N): What do I say? I say it's time to put both this world and Equestria under our heels.

You said in response. Adagio smirked before walking up to you and tying the pendant around your neck.

Adagio Dazzle: Congratulations Y/N, you are now... a siren.

Once it was tied around your neck, the pendant itself flashed before it changed to a dark (F/C) color. You grinned at this lovely gift that you were given before you noticed something. Adagio as well as Aria and Sonata looked at where you were looking to see the green mist coming from the Rainbooms as it finally made its way to you all. Adagio smiled at this.

Adagio Dazzle: It would seem that the Rainbooms are finally arguing with each other. This is our chance to absorb their magic.

She then turned to Aria and Sonata.

Adagio Dazzle: Let's go, you two.

She then looked back at you.

Adagio Dazzle: And you as well, newest member.

You smirked sadistically and nodded before joining them. After that, music started playing as every other student turned their attention to the stage. They soon saw you and the Dazzlings as you walked ahead of them while they walked slowly behind you. They began to vocalize as you closed your eyes and focused on the magic around you. Sure enough, the mist was being absorbed into your new pendant as well as the Dazzlings' pendants.

Meanwhile, back in the storage room, the Rainbooms were still arguing as Sunset now had a horrified look as she realized what was happening. She then turned to the Rainbooms and tried to get their attention.

Sunset Shimmer: Stop! You have to stop! This is what they've been after all along! They're feeding off of the magic inside you!

She said which managed to end the arguing as they all looked at her confused.

Applejack: How can they be using our magic? It's the magic of friendship.

She said as Sunset and Twilight looked at each other before Sunset continued.

Sunset Shimmer: Ever since you started this band, you've been letting little things get to you. I never said anything 'cause I didn't feel like it was my place. Not when I was so new to this whole "friendship" thing. I still have a lot to learn. But I do know that if you don't work out even the smallest problems right at the start, the magic of friendship can be turned into something else. And one of the end results was... Y/N leaving us.

She said the last part with a sad voice. This made the Rainbooms look at each other before they began taking in Sunset's words.

Applejack: She's right, ya'll. We lost Y/N because of our pride and ignorance. Now... he's payin' the price for our mistakes.

She said while bringing her hat to her chest.

Rarity: You're right Applejack. ** We never should have been so cruel to him.

They all nodded in agreement.

Twilight Sparkle: I can't believe all this tension was happening right under my nose and I didn't realize it. I'm supposed to be the one with all the answers. And all I've done since I got here is let you down.

She said while feeling a little sad. Sunset came up to her.

Sunset Shimmer: I don't think anyone is supposed to have all the answers. But you can count on your friends to help you find them.

She said while smiling at her as Twilight smiled back.

Twilight Sparkle: I think I already have. C'mon, you guys! We need to get out of here!

She said before they all nodded and tried ramming the door but were unable to. Finally, the door opened which revealed Spike on the other side.

Twilight Sparkle: Spike!

She exclaimed before embracing her doggy/dragon companion.

Spike: Sorry I took so long. I had to find somebody who wasn't under the sirens' spell to help me get you out.

He said before Vinyl Scratch stepped in through the door.

Vinyl Scratch: Sup, guys?

Twilight Sparkle: Vinyl Scratch? But, why aren't you under the Dazzlings' spell?

Spike: She never takes her headphones off.

Vinyl nodded.

Vinyl Scratch: Yeah. I was initially really surprised to see a talking dog before he told me what happened to you all as well as everything else about the new girls and how they have evil magic and such. It definitely explains why Tavi's been acting like a total jerk all this time.

Twilight Sparkle: Well, you don't need to worry any more. We're gonna get everyone back including Y/N.

Vinyl and Spike both felt confused by that.

Spike: Wait, what happened to Y/N?

The girls gained guilty looks before Twilight explained what had happened after he had left. Spike couldn't help but feel concerned and fearful at the thought of you being evil.

Spike: That's... that's definitely not good. We're... we're gonna get him back though... right?

Rainbow Dash: Of course we are! What kind of friends would we be if we didn't do that?

Vinyl Scratch: I hope so. The thought of Y/N being malicious and evil is... unthinkable.

They all nodded in agreement.

Applejack: Well, we're not just gonna stand here and talk about it all night long, are we? Come on, yall! Time to get Y/N back and prove we've still got the magic of friendship inside us!

Twilight Sparkle: And there's only one way to do it!

Pinkie Pie: We're getting the band back together?

She asked in a hopeful voice.

Rainbow Dash: We're getting our band back together!

She said which made Pinkie squee with happiness.

Rarity: Ooh, which version of the counter-spell are we going to play?

Twilight Sparkle: I don't think it matters what song we play, as long as we play it together as friends.

Rainbow Dash: I know just the song. Fluttershy's written a really great one.

She said which made Fluttershy very happy.

Applejack: We're about to save the world here. Personally, I think we should do it in style. Rarity?

Rarity: I thought you'd never ask!

She said before pulling out a wardrobe dress rack with several dresses hanging from it. She looked at a certain outfit before sighing sadly.

Applejack: What is it, Rarity?

Rarity: Well, there was this outfit that I was going to have Y/N wear for the finals before he... well... you know.

Twilight walked up to Rarity and placed a hand on her shoulder which got her attention.

Twilight Sparkle: We're going to get him back Rarity. That's a promise that we don't intend to break.

She said while the others nodded. Rarity sighed again before nodding herself and smiling.

Rarity: Alright, let's do this, everyone!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back up on stage, the Dazzlings continued to vocalize while you were looking down upon your new slaves with a sinister grin. We then zoom into your head as the camera flew through the new door that formed in your mind realm where we see the hooded figure from before who was still floating in the abyss of darkness. Although we can't see it, the figure was grinning with satisfaction.

???: Yes... YES!!! Just a little bit more and I shall finally regain my full strength!

It said before maniacally laughing. We zoom back outside as the Dazzlings continued to sing and hypnotize the students while their power grew and grew.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

As the Dazzlings continued singing and while you were gaining power, across from the amphitheater stage, the Rainbooms as well as Sunset had gathered together on top of a hill while also wearing new outfits.

Sunset squinted at you and saw the small dark (F/C) rock hanging from your neck before a fearful look made its way to her face.

Sunset Shimmer: He's... he's become one of them!

The girls grew even more fearful at seeing this before Rainbow spoke up.

Rainbow Dash: We can't worry about that right now. What we should be worrying about is how we're going to be able to play over them from all the way up here. The Dazzlings are singing way too loudly.

They heard a honk behind them as they turned to see Vinyl Scratch driving up to them in her car before she came to a stop.

Vinyl Scratch: Watch this!

She said before pushing a button which caused her car to transform into a large set of amplifiers.

The girls cheered at this before they turned back to look at you and the Dazzlings.

Sunset Shimmer: ** Don't worry Y/N, we're here to save you.

Meanwhile, the Dazzlings continued to sing.

The Dazzlings sent waves of red energy into the air before they made them come back down onto the crowd which hypnotized them even further.

The three of them began to float in the air as they began to transform via their own Pony-Up forms. To make matters worse, you had also started floating as you were also transforming.

The Dazzlings had now transformed into their Pony-Up forms.

As for you, your transformation was also complete as you now had a pair of evil looking wings.
