A whole day.

A whole day.

Aria and Sonata were worried. Adagio never left the house this long before. And they were sure it had all to do with the mysterious plan she had set up. Aria was more aggravated than anything and Sonata was more calm.

" I wasn't expecting this to happen, really. But I can see why Adagio isn't home," Sonata mumbled.

Aria stared at her crazily.

"So you think she didn't just abandon us? You think she's out fulfilling a plan so all of s could be happy?! If she was, she would have told us!!"

Sonata shook her head. "No, if she told us, we could ruin it. It's only a matter of mixing her up with someone else."

Aria's eyebrows shot up at this.

"Mixing her up with someone else??"

Instantly, the younger sister covered her mouth and gasped.

"I didn't say that."

Aria didn't even try to argue with her. This was all a huge mess. Sonata knew! And before she thought this girl was bluffing out her butt. She actually knew what Adagio was doing... She knew if she were to push it, Sonata would shut up and keep her lips clamped. Adagio must've made her promise to secrecy or something.

Sonata could see what was going through her head and gulped.

"I never was told anything, Ari! Adagio just up and left! I just happened to figure it out..."

Aria kicked the couch and snarled at the girl to shut up. She whimpered and backed away. Aria had enough of this. She was tired of being left in the shadows. What was going on where even Sonata of all people got it, except for her? Why was it that she was always left out to dry on stuff like this??

In rage, she flung the front door open and stormed off toward Canterlot. She was going to find Adagio. And when she did, she was going to let hell break loose.

Rarity met Adagio and gave her brand new clothes. The same crisp skirt, shirt, shoes, and socks that the girl she was impersonating wears. Rarity smiled at her and nodded a hello.

"Good morning, darling. How are you? How did the date go?"

She was giggling and a small 'squee' came out of her lips. Adagio grimaced and placed an odd smile on her lips.

"Gr-Great. We, uh...enjoyed the night to (gag) ourselves..."

Rarity squealed and Adagio covered her ears. The fashionista jumped up and down, clapping her hands.

"Ooh! Tell me ALL about it, darling! I want to know! I want to know!"

Shit!

Adagio looked down at the clothes in her hands. She came for what she needed and now she needed to bail. Bail before this girl tries to destroy her disguise...She looked all around her for a way to escape. She was deep inside the mall and the only places to go were the stores around her. Rarity reached out for her hand.

"Come on, lets talk in the shop."

Adagio sprang back and turned to run.

"Uhh...You can get the details from the other person! Girl! Lady! Dah!!"

The girl shot away from her with the clothes and rushed through the morning crowd of people there. Rarity called out but she continued on her way to a bathroom to change. Anywhere away from that girl was good enough for her! Adagio scrambled toward a restroom near the food court and changed into the skirt, shirt, shoes, and socks that was given to her. She glanced in the mirror and felt satisfied. Putting the clothes she just took off in a drawstring bag, she walked out and headed toward the exit.

But what she found there was sure to surprise her.

While walking she saw the wretched girls that caused this whole thing to spin out of control: The Main 5. Rarity was with them chattering loudly and excitedly. Pinkie Pie looked about ready to explode with joy and the others looked in awe of what was coming out the diva's mouth. Brian Flash Sentry and Big Mac were with them as well listening.

Flash looked a bit sour about what he was hearing while Big Mac looked plenty pleased. Pinkie Pie saw her looking that way and screamed.

"There she is!"

Adagio sighed and dashed off. That one girl told them about the fake 'date' she had with her 'beloved'. Goddammit. She heard them call out to her and she just ignored it.

"Hey! Where are you going?!" Flash cried.

Adagio heard footsteps coming after her and she panicked. This punk dude was about to chase her and pummel her down like a football player! At least her wasn't the real buff guy with the freckled face because that would cause some major damage.

"Flash! What're you doing?! What's gotten into you?!" Applejack howled after him.

She broke into a run and the others followed. None of them knew what was going on but whatever it was, they were going to find out. It was a messed up chase. Bumping into people was common in this run and shouting people was just as common. Adagio needed to get out of there and fast. She ducked into stores and swooped around corners.

Flash was on her tail and was hard to shake off. Eventually mall security was called and came zipping at the running teens on their Segways. The girls dropped off into the crowd to keep from getting spotted and Big Mac pretended to have been running to the restroom. But Flash was still on her.

An idea came to mind when the Segway guys called on their megaphones to slow down.

"Help! Get away from me!" Adagio dried in her girliest cry.

Flash was swarmed by the mall cops once they saw the boy was probably going to harm her.

Adagio got away scot-free and escaped the mall. Immediately, she headed toward the motel she was staying at in the meantime, glad that the mall chase was over.
