Sonata Dusk smiled as she skipped along, the bright sun shining down on the streets of Canterlot City. "So what exactly are we doing again?" Aria asked looking over at Adagio. "Whatever Sonata wants to do, today is her day afterall." Adagio chuckled looking down at the short purple siren, Aria just rolling her eyes and letting out a small somewhat sarcastic laugh of her own as she looked over at Sonata, the bubbly blue girl as happy as could be.

"So, what ya have planned for us first airhead?" Aria teased smiling at Sonata.

"Oh, I don't know, I mean there's just so much to do, we could relax in the park, shop at the mall, go to a movie, or visit the aquarium or the zoo. Oh yea that sounds fun, lets do that!" Sonata cheered happy at her idea.

"You want to go to the Zoo and stare at a bunch of stinky animals all day? Really!?" Aria asked in a somewhat disgruntled tone.

"Yea, we could see the lions, and tigers, and hippos!" Sonata sang

"Oh My!" Adagio jokingly replied.

"Yea, I guess that's cool and all, but remember none of them talk in this world like they did back in Equestria, or some of them.... man those Hippos back home could talk your ear off" Aria chuckled remembering that time she and her sisters had made a wrong turn while traveling the south seas beyond Equestria and ended up as reluctant guests to the queen of the Hippos.

"Yea, I know, but I still think it would be cool to check it out, I mean we've been in this world for so long and haven't been to the zoo once" Sonata exclaimed with a pout, looking at Aria with big puppy dog eyes. "Fine!" Aria huffed giving into her sister's plea "The Zoo it is."

"YAY!" Sonata cheered as she hugged her sister tightly, Aria letting out a small blush finding her face was much closer to Sonata's chest then she felt comfortable with.

"Hehe" Adagio chuckled. "Now that that's settled, let's get going. " The leader stated as she began to walk in-front of the two.

Later at the Zoo Sonata happily ran from one exhibit to another, here eyes wide like a small child experiencing the world for the very first time!

"Monkys, and Pandas and Koalas, OH MY GOODNESS THEY'RE ALL SO CUTE!!!" Sonata squeed as she jumped up and down here excitement growing with each new exhibit. "Oh, and there's the Hippos!" Sonata cheered as she ran towards the enclosure. "Hi Mr. Hippo, i'm sorry you guys can't talk in this world. Maybe you should talk to your queen about getting you transferred back to Equestria!" Sonata yelled at the Hippo the other men, women and children also looking at the exhibit staring at the girl like she was crazy.

"Ugg, that airhead!" Aria groaned as she went over to get Sonata. "Sorry folks she's had a bit too much sugar today" Aria nervously chuckled as she prayed Sonata away from the exhibit. "That's not true!" Sonata pouted "I've only had three cotton candies, Pinkie and I can easily eat twice that in a day and be fine!" The excited girl exclaimed.

Aria just groaned again and rubbed her temples "You're lucky you're cute or i'd have ended you a long time ago" Aria stated with a sigh staring at Soanta. "Ahh, c'mon Ari, you know you LOVE ME!" Sonata cooed as she gave Aria an innocent flirtatious stare. "i'd love for you to calm down and stop embarrassing us" Aria teasingly replied.

"OK, that's enough you two" Adagio interrupted, we better keep going or we'll never get through all the exhibits before they close. Adagio reminded her sisters.

"Oh my Neptune you're right!" Sonata nervously replied.

"So, where should we go next?" Aria asked the bubbly blue siren.

"Hmm, I dunno, i'm tempted just to make a b-line to the Aquarium, you know to see if the fishies here are as pretty as the ones from our home world, but maybe we should save that for last, how about the Elephents!" Sonata smiled "I hear they never forget anything, like ever! I'd love to know how they do it!" Sonata chuckled with glee as she continued to hop along her sisters trailing behind.

"OK, elephants it is." Adagio agreed with a chuckle.

The three girls set on the edge of the enclosure and watched the large majestic creatures slowly walk back and forth.

"Wow, they're so big, and adorable!" Sonata squeed once more.

"Yes, it's a shame some of the more garbage humans in this dimension kill these majestic creatures for sport or their tusks" Adagio sighed.

"Ugg, humans are just garbage sometimes!" Aria agreed.

"Yea, they're almost as nasty as Griffons or Storm Beasts!" Sonata concurred.

The three girls looked at one another and chuckled before looking back at the creatures that were the topic of their discussion.

"hey, you guys think maybe we should get jobs at this zoo?" Sonata asked her sisters.

"Why the hell would you wanna do that!?" Aria sourly cringed as she looked at her sister.

"I dunno, I mean it's just that, technically we're animals too, I mean we were magical creatures back in Equestria, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to help the creatures of this world just cause they aren't magical...right!?" Sonata explained looking at her sisters with sorrowful eyes.

"You know Sonata, you've always been the kind hearted one" Adagio smiled. "I think it's great you wanna help the creatures of this world, but maybe working at a zoo wouldn't be the best idea given you're um...uniquely energetic nature." Adagio attempted to let her sister down easy. "But maybe you could ask Fluttershy if she ever needs any help at that animal shelter of her's" Adagio softly smiled.

"Hmm...I guess you're right Dagi, maybe i'd be better off working with some puppy dogs just as hyper as me" Sonata smiled. "OK, I've had enough of the elephants, let's see what else this place has to offer" Sonata softly sighed as she began to walk towards the next exhibit, her sister's still on tow.

Hours later after the group had looked at every other creature in the zoo from Komodo dragons to that creepy indoor section with bugs and bats the group had finally made it to the aquarium part of the attraction, as the girls entered they looked on in awe at all the amazing recreations of this worlds seas and the various creatures that inhabited it.

"Aww, look at how cute those fishies are!" Sonata practically screamed.

"He, forget the small fry, look at this beast" Aria smiled looking at a Great White Shark that seemed to be grinning back at her as well as if it could sense her aura recognizing her as a fellow predator, one worthy of respect. Meanwhile Adagio walked towards the back where a pod of Dolphins swam in a rather large tank. Adagio watched the group of aquatic mammals swim back and forth as they chirped and sang and did tricks. The sight was calming to her but also somewhat melancholic as it made her long for her long lost home, the seas beyond Equestria, the underwater kingdom of Fantasia, now no more then a dream given their original siren bodies had long since been destroyed. The puffy haired girl felt a small tear roll down her eye.

"So, you miss it too" She heard a voice beside her ask, looking over to her left to see Sonata also watching the display begging to tear -up, Aria showing-up at her right making a small melancholic laugh. "Man, I haven't felt the sea on my scales, er skin in forever" The smallest siren sighed as she joined her sisters.

"You know guys, maybe our next sister bonding trip should be to the beach?" Sonata smiled as she wiped the tears away from her eyes.

"Yea, i'd like that" Adagio agreed as she did the same.

"Hell yea! That's a lot better then coming to a zoo full of stinky old animals that can't even talk" Aria laughed as she looked over at her sisters, Sonata just grabbing the two and bringing them in for a hug. "Thanks you two, today's been great!" She cried as she hugged them even tighter. "N-No problem" The two huffed as they tried to catch their breath while in Sonata's tight embrace.

That evening the siren trio decided to be a bit on the lazy side and take the bus back to the loft as opposed to walking all the way back, as they did Adagio couldn't help but find herself rather sleepy and quickly found herself drifting off to sleep on the public transport.

"hehe, hey Ari, look, Dagi fell asleep. We should totally draw on her face!" Sonata chuckled under her breath looking over at Aria who was on the other side of Adagio. Aria just rolling her eyes before replying "Yea, no, I'd prefer not to be killed by my big sister" Aria chuckled looking back over at Sonata.

"Hehe, yea, guess that would kinda suck" Sonata chuckled once more, before calming down a bit and getting a bit more serious "You know I really am glad we all got to spend time together today, it's been far to long, and I-I was kind of afraid you and Adagio didn't like me anymore." Sonata admitted to her siren sibling.

Aria just looked over at the usual bright eyed girl rather confused. "Why the heck would yea think that!?" Aria asked the bustiest of the trio rather sternly. Sonata just let out a deep sigh and looked at her sister longingly "Well ever since the whole thing with Sandalwood i've kind of felt like a third wheel, Pinkie Puts up with me still, but I feel like around everyone else, even you and Dagi i'm just a nuisance, I tried so hard to be grown up and it back-fired." Sonata sighed once more. "And on top of that now you have a crush on Dagi instead of me, and i'm kinda jealous" Sonata pouted looking over at Aria with her puppy dog eyes. "I mean, c'mon my bust is twice the size of hers!" Sonata huffed as she crossed her arms and puffed out her chest.

Aria just rolled her eyes and groaned. "Seriously!?" The shortest siren huffed "Listen, you're not a third wheel, you said you wanted more freedom so we gave it to you, and if it's any consultation I find you and Adagio both equally as beautiful as you are pains in my ass overall" Aria mischievously smiled over at Sonata.

"Well, that's nice to know I suppose, though really Ari you should find someone to crush on that's not related to you, seriously that's just weird!" Sonata exclaimed.

"Wh-bu-you...uggg" Aria growled looking at her sister who was still smiling realizing Sonata had been teasing her this entire time. "Your boobs are bigger then your brain....stupid airhead" Aria huffed, Sonata still chuckling as she let out a yawn, finding she too was getting rather tired, glad that they were almost at their stop as she was ready for a nice warm bath and a good nights sleep, it was nice to be spending time with her sisters again, even if Aria would probably get back at her tomorrow for teasing her like that,

Meanwhile in the back of the bus a cloaked figure with glowing red eyes just stared at the trio and let out a quite laugh "Yes, the gold one is almost ready, i'll have what I need from it soon enough" The figure reassured itself before dissapearing into a haze of black smoke, a nearby elderly passenger blinking in disbelief wondering what the heck they had eaten to cause that hallucination.

Author's Notes:

Well that was cute, wanted to do a bit of a more laid back chapter before we got back to building up of the chaos, next time Adagio goes on her date with Juniper, shenanigans ensue.
