Author's Notes:

Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Halloween special of Dazzle Dazzle, Little Stars. In this chapter, there will be some essence of fear, as well as some essence of cuteness. Because Halloween, in case you were asking.

But anyways, I'm stalling for too long, you want to read the chapter I poured my heart and soul into. I hope you enjoyed it.

I shall be uploading the next part of this story later. Since I have pushed out a lot of words this time around.

Two Months later...

It was a night no-one could ever forget. October 31st, Halloween. At this time, children of all shapes and sizes were dressing up as the scariest monsters they could think of, all just so they could scare others and get free candy for doing so. Such a wonderful occasion was had by all the boys and girls of the town and it was a satisfying feeling to scare people and get a reward for doing so.

Despite all the kids who loved Halloween, adults loved it as well. They were able to go to special Halloween parties at this time of night and dance the night away. And despite some of them getting a little wasted afterwards, they didn't mind it. It was a night to celebrate, after all.

And tonight, was going to be a very special Halloween for a trio of very special little girls...

At Sunset Shimmer's house, there were Halloween decorations inside and out. They made the house seem more scarier and more into the Halloween spirit. The outside was decorated with broken window wallpapers on the windows, cobwebs on the stairs inside and even the Jack-O-Lanterns that Sunset and The Dazzlings had carved were placed outside the front door.

Inside, the house seemed darker due to all the scary decorations and turned off lights. Instead, Sunset had placed candles and lanterns around the house to show the place some light. The only parts that weren't scary, were the bedrooms of Sunset and The Dazzlings.

The Dazzlings were all dressed up for the occasion. They had been told by Sunset that there would be things that would scare them, but the only one who was affected by this was Sonata. Adagio and Aria didn't seem bothered by this fact, but Sonata seemed a little worried. She was still unaware on whether or not things were realistic or just her imagination, especially on nights like this.

Even so, that didn't stop them from playing in their Halloween costumes. Adagio was dressed as a vampire, Sonata was a cute little ghost and Aria was dressed as a werewolf. They had spent most of their time in their room trying to scare each other and most of the time, poor little Sonata believed it. She spent most of the time they spent together hiding in fear, fear that her sisters might try and attack her in their new guises.

"Come on, Awia, I just wanna suck youw bwood!" Adagio said as she playfully chased Aria around the room, letting out little giggles here and there. She'd been quite comfortable with this whole Halloween thing and actually started to have fun with it."It won't huwt a bit."

"Hehe, if yoo wanna bite me, you'we gonna have ta catch me!" Aria giggled back as she kept prolonging the chase. She was rather fast for her current state. She even decided to run like a wolf since she was dressed like one. This enabled her to avoid Adagio's clutches for quite some time now and made her giggle every time Adagio missed her.

"Ohh... When's Mama gonna be weady wid hew costume?" Sonata asked as she looked a little worried that Adagio and Aria might try to rope her into the chase as well. The last thing she needed was any more fear, especially on a night like this. "She said she'd be a few minutes, dis doesn't seem wike a few minutes ta me..."

"Ahh, wighten up, Sonata. It's Hawwoween tonight," Aria said as she looked over at Sonata, who was ready to burst into tears. She tried to get Sonata's frown back to a smile with a good amount of logic. "Mama did say dat scawy tings wouwd happen tonight..."

"And wet's be honest hewe, Sonata. We'we AWW gonna get a wittwe scawed tonight. Just give it some time, then you'ww see..." Adagio said as she tried to comfort Sonata, while also chasing down her target. She too saw sadness in her sister and wanted to make sure that it was quelled as soon as possible.

"Weww, I stiww don't feew comfowtabwe wid dis..." Sonata said as she made a little pout, crossing her arms. "It's not faiw dat evewyone has ta be scawed wike dis..."

Suddenly, the door flew open on its' own. This got both Adagio and Aria to stop in their tracks when they saw nothing but darkness on the other side. The Dazzlings looked a little worried as they stared at the open door for a few seconds longer, before noticing that a blood-red hand was clutching onto the frame of the door.

The Dazzlings could only watch in fear as the hand suddenly became a mysterious figure with big wings coming out of the back. They were all pretty scared, most of all, Sonata. She even ran and hid under the crib, lest this figure tried to attack her.

Suddenly, the figure lunged forward at the three infant sirens and they let out some ear-piercing screams of terror. They thought it was curtains for them, to think it would end on Halloween night. The time of night where this was kind of expected.

"Surprise!" Sunset said, as it turns out she was the figure all along. She was dressed as an accurate depiction of the demon she became a couple of years ago, complete with the wings and a very well-detailed replica of Twilight's crown. She let out a little chuckle and picked the Dazzlings up to calm them down. She could see their distress and wanted to validate their safety with her affection. "Don't worry, girls. It's just me, getting into the Halloween spirit."

"Jeez, Mama, dun scawe me wike dat!" Sonata said, looking a little annoyed at that prank Sunset pulled. Her face was scrunched up in frustration after she had calmed down from that little scare. "Wat awe yoo twying ta do? Make me wet mysewf?"

"Come on, girls. I didn't mean to scare you like that," Sunset said as she decided to check if they had wet themselves in fear. She only had to move the costumes they wore slightly to find the white undergarments underneath. "I just wanted to make sure you knew what to expect tonight."

"Weww, it stiww wasn't funny..." Aria pouted too whilst Sunset found some damp patches on her diaper. She too had had a little fright from Sunset's actions and shared in Sonata's opinions. She looked over at Sonata whilst she too her diaper checked. "I agwee wid Sonata, you weawwy wewen't funny, Mama."

"Regardless, I'm sorry for scaring you like that," Sunset said as she began to change each of the Dazzlings, as she picked up some damp patches on Adagio and Sonata as well. "If it's any consolation, that's the last scare of the night that you'll get from me..."

"Umm, Mama? Wat's wid youw Hawwoween costume?" Adagio asked as she looked at Sunset's demon costume for the night. She thought that it oddly fit Sunset on a number of accounts and was quite curious as too what she was guised as for Halloween.

"Oh, this?" Sunset said as she briefly admired the costume she had spent hours making. During the time she spoke, she was also removing the soiled diapers to get new ones for The Dazzlings. "It's just a little something that fits with the Halloween tradition. And it's also what I became during the Fall Formal incident..."

"Wat was dat wast pawt?" Sonata asked as she noticed Sunset's voice getting quieter at the last part. She could tell something was up with Sunset if she could barely hear what she had just said. Her concern for Sunset sparked as she leaned closer to hear what Sunset had to say.

"Nothing." Sunset said as she tried to change the subject a little, desperately trying to shake off her rather unpleasant past. Her emotions seemed to resurface with the mere mention of the Fall Formal incident. She shrugged it off however once she powdered the new diapers and wrapped them around The Dazzlings' bottoms, getting them to smile once more.

"There we go, nice and snug for the night ahead," Sunset said as she sat The Dazzlings up on their newly diapered bottoms and saw their gracious smiles. She knew the next part and could already sense the happiness they'd feel once she'd uttered it. "Now then, I hope you remember what you have to say whenever you go to someone's house..."

"Umm, wat do we have ta say again?" Sonata asked. She'd clearly forgotten what to do after that little fright she had received and wanted Sunset to enlighten her.

"Whenever you ring the doorbell and someone answers, you have to say 'Trick-Or-Treat!' in the best way you can," Sunset explained. "If they're celebrating Halloween as well, they'll give you free candy for saying it."

"Sewiouswy?!" Adagio looked excited. Now that she, Aria and Sonata were getting older, they were adapting to solid foods now. And nothing tasted better to them then the sweet taste of candy in their current, infantile states.

"Fow weawsies?" Sonata asked, also looking quite surprised. She'd wanted to get some more candy after she had her first taste of the stuff a few weeks back when she'd gotten into Sunset's secret stash of candy when she was busy with Adagio and Aria.

"For realsies," Sunset replied back, smiling at Sonata's happiness with a smile of her own. "Now then, let's try out a little practice. When I count to three, I want you girls to say 'Trick-Or-Treat! to me."

"Otay, Mama..." They all said with a little smile starting to show on their little faces. Such a wonderful feeling of happiness surged through them when they fantasized over the candy they'd be receiving over the course of the night

"Alright. One... Two... Three!"

"Twick-Ow-Tweat!" The girls said, as excited as they could possibly get. They wanted to get some candy from this and showed a large amount of eagerness as they spoke the famous Halloween saying.

"Nice work, girls," Sunset said as she applauded her smart little Dazzlings. "I think a perfectly executed 'Trick-Or-Treat' such as that, deserves some candy." Sunset carried each of the girls up and took them downstairs to the front door.

"You know, looking at them now, they DO look cute..." Orchestral said as he peeked in through the window from a far-off location. He and Allegro were spying on The Dazzlings, but Fortissimo was nowhere to be found. "Makes me feel kind of bad for what we're going to do to them once they grow up..."

"Stay focused, Orchestral," Allegro snapped him out of his emotions and reminded him of the mission. "Keep a close eye on them as they go trick-or-treating tonight. We have to ensure that no harm comes to them before they grow up, Fortissimo wanted 'top quality Dazzlings' after all."

"Oh, right." He said as he finally returned to the mission he had been given.

Once they saw Adagio, Aria and Sonata go downstairs with Sunset, Allegro and Orchestral clutched their gems tightly and their clothes transformed in a red spiral of light. They were makeshift Halloween costumes afterwards. Allegro came out with a Dracula costume whilst Orchestral came out of the spell with a Batman costume.

"What?" He said as he noticed Allegro was looking at him with a curious glare.

"Nothing." He said as they both fired magic streams from their pendants and used them as grappling hooks to swing to another building. They did this so that they could still keep a close eye on Adagio, Aria and Sonata, whilst also keeping their identities secret. Even with Halloween, they could never be too careful.

"There it is." Sunset said as she finally found the bowl of candy. The Dazzlings looked over at the bowl of candy and licked their lips as they saw all the delectable choices on offer. There were fizzy ones, sweet ones, sticky ones and even a few bars of chocolate in there as well.

"Go on, help yourself to anything you want." Sunset said as she let Adagio, Aria and Sonata onto the floor so they could get at the delicious treats on offer. "You deserve it, after all..."

Adagio looked carefully at the bowl of candy and chose a nice looking lollipop from the bunch. She took it and tasted it. It was surprisingly sweet for her, possibly to do with all the colours of both sides.

As for Aria, she spent quite some time choosing what she wanted to eat. Sonata even helped narrow the choice down for her by choosing her candy whilst Aria was still deep in thought. Eventually though, Aria chose her choice. A nice looking purple gumdrop. Whilst she did have troubles with chewing it, that didn't bother her. If anything, she merely wanted to taste the succulent candy she had picked.

"Are you sure you didn't want something big, Aria?" Sunset asked as she noticed that Aria's choice was marginally smaller than that of Adagio and Sonata.

"No tanks." Aria said as she savoured the flavour.

Suddenly, there was a ringing at the door and Adagio, Aria and Sonata walked away from it, so that Sunset could open it and greet the kids who wanted their candy. She was met with a very surprising sight once she opened the door though...

"Trick-Or-Treat!" Said the Humane 5 as Sunset opened the door for them.

"Hi, girls! Nice to see you tonight!" Sunset smile to all five of the girls she'd spent all of her reformed time in this world with as she held up the bowl for them all to choose their picks. Seeing the Humane 5 was always a welcome sight for her and it filled her with confidence for the journeys ahead. "Those are some great costumes, by the way."

"Thank you, darling," Rarity said as she admired her vampire costume with a quick swish of her hands. "I wanted something that not only fits my class, but has a more scary side to it."

"So, what brings you here to my dominion?" Sunset said, trying to make a good impression of an evil voice. She bore a little smile as she pressed herself against the walls, petting them in a deranged fashion.

"We came to get you, silly!" Pinkie said as she bounced in front of the others with a big smile on her face, as usual. "It wouldn't be Halloween without the Demon Queen herself! No offense."

"That's alright, Pinkie. Tonight's the one night where that doesn't bother me in the slightest." Sunset said as she looked inside for Adagio, Aria and Sonata. "Come on, girls. Your aunties are here as well."

Adagio, Aria and Sonata heard Sunset's words and came over to her pretty quickly. Sonata still felt pretty uneasy about Sunset picking her up whilst she was wearing her demon get-up, but Aria and Adagio showed her that there was nothing to worry about. The two of them petted Sonata's cheeks, getting her to smile and allow Sunset to whisk her up into her arms.

"Girls, say a special Halloween hello to your aunties for me," Sunset instructed as Sonata was picked up to join Adagio and Aria. "Now be sure you're as scary as can be, alright?"

Adagio, Aria and Sonata cleared their throats for a few seconds and made quite a scary introduction, making some roars and screams of a high-pitched nature. This got Fluttershy to smile as she looked at how adorable Adagio and Sonata looked in their costumes.

"Wow, they certainly look... Scary." Rainbow Dash said as she looked at them whilst trying not to squeal at how cute they looked in their cute little Halloween outfits.

Adagio, Aria and Sonata were pelted with good compliments as they got a good look at the Humane 5's costumes. Pinkie had snakes in her hair, (Both literally and figuratively) making her Medusa. Rainbow Dash looked like someone who had been impaled in a motorcycle accident with bloodstains where she'd been impaled. Rarity looked the part of a female vampire. Applejack had rotting flesh make-up, making her stand out as a zombie. And Fluttershy looked like a werewolf, but with additional claws where her hands would be.

"Wat awe we waiting fow? Wet's go!" Adagio said as she started to get a little impatient. She wanted to get the night started as quickly as possible.

"Good idea." Sunset said as she pulled out a little map from the nearby bucket she was going to use. "I found this really great map, which shows us where the best candy deposits are in the city. Heh, saves us a lot of time, wouldn't you agree?"

"Oh, oh, oh! I heard about these houses!" Pinkie sounded ecstatic as the group began to walk down the street after she watched Sunset closed the door behind her. "They say that if you ask really, REALLY nicely, they give you bags of candy, instead of just one morsel..."

Allegro and Orchestral noticed the group was starting to move, so they used their gems to call Fortissimo. They placed both of them together, and that created a video screen in front of them. Once they got a good connection, Fortissimo's face showed up.

"Make it quick, boys. I'm eating..." Fortissimo turned the screen to show what looked like a massive argument at a Halloween party. The hatred that everyone felt for each other flew into Fortissimo's pendant as a trail of green smoke, before it disappeared and made his gem glow for a few seconds.

"We've got the house number where our sisters are being cared for; Number 46, Party Province." Allegro said as he showed Sunset, The Dazzlings and the Humane 5 walking away from it. "Our sisters are going out for a little trick-or-treating tonight. What are your orders?"

"Keep a close eye on them, make sure you don't let them out of your sight. But at the same time, don't get spotted," Fortissimo said as the crowd he was with started to calm down and start drinking again. "If the Spirits of Harmony discover you and your pendants, they might think something's up."

"So long story short, follow them, don't get spotted and make sure our little sisters are alright?" Orchestral wanted clarification.

"Exactly," Fortissimo said as he started to feel a little thirsty. "I'll see you at the party, boys. It's said to be a 'graveyard smash'."

Then the screen disappeared. Once it did, Allegro and Orchestral took back their pendants and traversed the rooftops to keep close to The Dazzlings, but also out of sight. They silently tiptoed slowly so as not to make some footstep noise and they made sure to land on their feet when they went over an alley.

Meanwhile, Sunset and the girls were walking down to one of the houses on their map. They rang the doorbell, then stood together as happy as could be. Adagio, Aria and Sonata were mainly at their feet for most of the evening, looking up at Sunset with a little smile as they waited for the door to open.

Once the door opened, the girls all responded with a quite nice "Trick-Or-Treat!" and the male held out one of the two bowls he used for trick-or-treaters. One of them was similar to Sunset's bowl back at her house, but the one he picked up had bags of sweet stuff inside.

"Those are some great costumes, girls." He said as he distributed a bag to each of the girls, then kneeled down when he gave The Dazzlings their fair share. "Alright, have a nice evening, ladies."

The girls thanked him as they all went off away from the door. Once they were all out of the house, they looked at what all the wonderful candies they'd been given for the evening.

"Wow..." Rainbow Dash said as she looked at the candies in her bag, smiling with awe as she gazed at all the beguiling colours and shapes of candy in that one plastic bag. "You were right about one thing, Pinkie. The candies in this bag look WAY better than what we already got tonight.

"Ah have ta agree with Rainbow Dash here. Ya don't usually find such delicious treats such as Fizz Storm these days." Applejack said as she looked at the tasty looking gumballs in the sea of fizzy powder they sat in.

"Or Sweethearts for that matter," Rarity looked at each of her gummy hearts with a smile. "Despite them all looking like gummy sweets, they have completely different flavours when you eat them."

"Wat did yoo get, Mama?" Aria looked at Sunset with a little curiosity as she, Adagio and Sonata couldn't see the treat that Sunset got.

"Check this out, girls," Sunset stopped and kneeled down to show the Dazzlings what she was holding. Chewable green stars of all different shapes and sizes. "You don't find many bags of this nowadays; Emerald Stars. These things are so sweet, they can raise your blood/sugar levels after one bag."

"Oh, where are we going now, Pinkie?" Fluttershy asked as Pinkie took a turn down towards a rather fancy house.

"To Mr Rich's house," Pinkie explained. "Whilst his daughter, Diamond Tiara is out with Silver Spoon, Mr Rich was generous enough to tend to any trick-or-treaters whilst his daughter's out of the house this year."

"Well, that's such a kind thing for him to do..." Fluttershy smiled as they made their way to the mansion where Filthy Rich resided. "Especially since his daughter has quite an obsession for acting like a child despite her age."

"Whewe awe we going, Mama?" Sonata asked as she tried to see where the girls were walking, only to see rather long legs, cloaked in costume

"Oh. Here, get in front of me, girls," Sunset said as she let Adagio, Aria and Sonata overtake her. "Doesn't it look impressive?"

"Im... Pwessive?" Adagio hadn't heard that word in her new state, and now her mind was shooting blanks.

"Is it nice?" Sunset dumbed it down for Adagio, Aria and Sonata to understand. She knew that such higher-class words evaded The Dazzlings now and wanted to make sure that they understood exactly what she was talking about.

"Oh, nice? Yeah, it's pwetty nice..." Aria said as she got a gaze on the mansion which was decorated in every possible area for Halloween. Even the walls had gargoyle statues which looked like they cost a fortune.

"Otay, hewe we go, giwws." Sonata said. She couldn't contain her excitement as they all waited together, wondering what Filthy Rich would bestow upon the three of them

The door opened with Filthy Rich occupying the other end of it. He was met with the same greeting the other guy got, a happy and peaceful "Trick-Or-Treat!" from the girls.

"Hello, ladies and girls. Nice to see you," he said as he reached for the candy bowl next to him. "I presume this is what you came for, right?"

"Yes indeedy!" Pinkie said as she took her pick of candy bag, along with the rest of the girls. "Thank you, Mr Rich!"

"Oh, just one more thing, girls," Filthy Rich stopped them before they made their way out the gate. "There's a big Halloween party hosted by The Blasters tonight."

"The Blasters?! The most awesome rock band to have ever existed, here?!" Rainbow Dash looked ecstatic at hearing this. Her face was positively beaming at this point onwards.

"Forgive me for sticking out like a sore thumb, Rainbow Dash. But WHO are these Blasters?" Rarity asked as she was clearly dumbfounded by this piece of information.

"They're the most awesomest, most spectacular, most successful and most metallic band I've ever heard!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "EVERY one of their songs was a Number 1 hit after they were formed. They swept nations, won tournaments and made themselves one of the richest and most popular bands I've ever seen!"

"And now they're actually here, in the flesh!!!" Rainbow Dash ran back to Filthy Rich, stopping right on the step of the house. "So, do you know where they're having this party?"

"Why yes. Here's the house where the party's happening," he said as he handed Rainbow Dash a leaflet. "Have a nice time there, ok?"

"We will." Rainbow Dash said as she and the girls finally went off to the streets to the next house on their trip. "Thanks again for the candy, Mr Rich!"

Allegro watched as the girls made their way over to the house marked on the leaflet. "Come on, Orchestral. Let's get home."

"W-Wait, Now? But what about our sisters?" Orchestral looked a little dumbfounded, wondering what could possibly be going through Allegro's mind. "Fortissimo's gonna be furious if he finds out we failed to watch over them."

"Listen, Orchestral. They know where our party is at and there's no way they're gonna want to miss out on it. Especially not with that ecstatic kid with the rainbow hair attending." Allegro explained to his assistant. "Now come on. We've got a party and I've no intention of being late."

And with that, Orchestral and Allegro ran across the rooftops once more, in a mad dash to make it to their party before Sunset, The Dazzlings and the Humane 5 could get there.

"They all look like pretty hot guys, Rainbow Dash." Sunset said as she got a glimpse of the three males on the picture. They were wearing leather jackets and were playing instruments. Fortissimo was seen with an electric guitar, Allegro had a keytar and Orchestral had a drum kit attached to his shoulders, so he could play the drums on the move.

"Yeah. I mean, they've NEVER made a bad song during their many years of playing..." Rainbow Dash went into more detail. "They've also sold over 50,000,000 CD's all around the world, and had their songs translated into ALL languages for everyone's pleasure. That's right, I've been studying their success. Pretty successful, huh?"

"So. We know who The Blasters are by their stage names now," Pinkie said. "But if you don't mind me asking, Dashie... What are their real names?"

"Oh, right," Rainbow Dash said as she pointed each of them out for the girls. "The lead singer is this guy, Fortissimo Blast. His guitar makes girls scream in joy whenever he plays it. The guy with the keytar is Allegro Maelstrom, who's known for his amazing choruses and keytar-combos. And the guy with the portable drum kit is Orchestral Chill. His very breath causes the paparazzi to come running."

"Well... That's very insightful, Rainbow Dash." Rarity said as she looked completely stunned by the fact that Rainbow Dash knew all these things. She always thought that Rainbow Dash was never the one to study someone and their success and had no idea whether or not she should have been worried or proud at all she'd learned.

"Yeah, they're the only thing I listen to whenever I need inspiration for a new song," Rainbow Dash said. "You know Awesome As I Wanna Be? I made an extended version of it after listening to their most famous songs for a couple of times. They do have some FANTASTIC songs, I'm not gonna lie."

Adagio, Aria and Sonata were quite intrigued that this band would be having a party specifically for this night only. They were quite excited to go, and a little nervous as well, since they hadn't been to an actual party for a long time.

Meanwhile, Fortissimo was in his room. He was polishing his Gold Vinyls, all 100 of them. He smiled evilly as he looked out into the night sky after putting one of them down. His plan was diabolical, and he loved every second of what had happened and what was going to happen.

"I can't believe that my little sister didn't think of this when she tried..." he gloated to himself as he opened the door to his balcony and walked out into the darkness. "Enchant your songs with Siren Magic, make them Number 1's, ship them around the world to EVERYONE and you turn this planet into an all-you-can-eat-buffet. Genius."

"Well, she failed to notice that this way was more efficient and as such, she paid the price for it..." he said as he placed his hands on the marble balcony walls. "Yet for all my success, I can't help but feel like this is too easy..."

"Meh, no matter. The Ultimate Amplifier will soon be ready for us to use. And once it is, our songs will change the world... in OUR favour..." he then heard the doorbell going, and knew someone was here. "Oh, another guest coming to party and secretly witness my victory? Well, I'd better not keep them waiting."

"I guess I can put off my Vinyl polishing for the time being." He sighed in content as he left his room and descended the stairs towards the door. "After all, soon both this world AND Equestria will become my prize."
