Author's Notes:

Bet you Shattered people didn't expect this to come out, did you?

Now I want to state that this is not the official sequel to Shattered. This is more like... a special, if that makes sense. Like those three Equestria Girls specials, like Movie Magic, Dance Magic, ya know. I've been thinkin' about this one for a while now and I think I can make this good.

So anyways, here's our start! Wanted to start out nice and calm first before entering in the real drama. So anyways, hope you enjoyed and stay tuned for more!

Adagio's head hung low. She was in defeat. What she hoped would be a success, was sadly not successful. All she wanted was to turn around Sunset Shimmer's state, change her away from her evil goals. But her end result was all but fraught and sad.

She recently visited Sunset Shimmer at the Canterlot State Penitentiary. She hoped that paying her a visit and her words of wisdom could change her, but it didn't. She didn't change. She was never going to change. And it looked as if this was how it was going to be. Defeat still ran rampant in her brain, saddened by her failure. This wasn't anything new to her, of course, but it still hurt knowing that she couldn't help someone.

"Adagio?"

She tilted her head up, looking at the cute little dork sitting across from her.

"Are you okay?"

Adagio sighed. "I am, just... I don't know. I'm feeling a little blue."

Trixie opened up her arms. "Want a hug?"

Adagio for once, smiled. "Oh, why not?"

Both girls got up from their seats and held each other in a hug. Trixie could feel her new lover finally relaxing in her arms, sighing in relief and moving ever so closer.

"There, there." Trixie said, patting her back.

Both of them split off from the hug and sat back down, but not before Trixie gave a quick peck to Adagio's cheek. Adagio's face only went red from Trixie's affection. She valued every second she got to spend with her, and it was like pure heaven.

"Never let this woman go, Trixie? You hear me?" Vinyl asked.

"I don't think it'll be a problem, Vinyl." Adagio replied. "I know so."

"Actually, Adagio, if you don't mind my asking," Octavia asked, trying to adjust the big spiked up piece of hair that was covering her eyes, "Why are you down, actually?"

"I don't know, its just... I went to visit Sunset Shimmer over in prison and, I unfortunately had no luck." Adagio pouted.

"Adagio, you know some people aren't going to change, you know?" Aria asked.

"I know, but--"

"Adagio."

Adagio looked back at her younger sibling, who looked at her with a worried face.

"You can't just let this eat you. Look, its sweet you tried, but there's no use. Sunset Shimmer's not going to loosen up any time soon, and I doubt she'll ever forgive you or any of us for what happened at the Battle Of The Bands. You need to let her go."

"But, I..." Adagio stuttered.

Aria and Sonata both glared at Adagio, looking at her with the same motherly faces that she often had given them. Now it was there turn to be the voices of reason.

"I suppose you're right," Adagio sighed, "what's the use? Its not like she would even listen to me anyways."

"Well you don't have to worry about her now. She's gone for good. Hopefully," Sonata quipped.

"Hope the security guards aren't daft," Octavia remarked, sipping down a soda can.

"I doubt she'll make it out of there. With hundreds of dangerous criminals that exist in the world, and a good handful of criminals in that prison, I don't think they'll let her survive for a second," Vinyl replied.

"Not what I've seen. It seems her physical condition was just fine," Adagio answered.

"Maybe so, but... still."

Adagio held her head. "There's still something that concerns me though."

"What?" Octavia asked.

"Well, she said that we should watch our backs and be careful with what we post on social media. And you know something? I think she might be right..."

"Adagio, you're not seriously--"

"Wait, wait. Lets hear her out," Sonata raised a hand.

"Think about this. Sunset and the Rainbooms found our secrets through online history. She linked us all together with just a few clicks of our names. We've been in several pieces of history, and someone out there could track us down. Worse, someone just might be able to find us and learn where we live!"

"Adagio, you're being paranoid. Look, the entire school put a vow to never show your faces on social media, and any photos we took of you we've only kept in our stashes and scrapbooks. No one is ever going to put your profiles up online, ever, nada, zip!" Sonata chirped.

"I hope not..." Adagio quietly murmurred.

Hoping to get the thought off her mind, she turned her head over to one of the tables. She saw some more groups of friends just hanging out, looking calm and relaxing. Nothing bad or out of the ordinary was found. Just their classmates having lunch.

At another table, she could see the Rainbooms all huddled at their own table. Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Rarity. They were still looking sad and miserable as usual. She knew that they deserved what they had coming to them. Which was everyone in the entire school hating them and never letting them forget about it.

Feeling a little sympathetic, she pulled out of her chair and started to walk towards them. Applejack caught first glance, and she tried to hide her face under her hat.

"Apples, I know you're there."

Applejack groaned. "Adagio, I'm not lookin' to talk to ya right now."

"Believe me, no one is." Rarity scowled.

"You do realize I could have just let you be taken off to prison?" Adagio raised a brow.

All four of them went from their scowls dropping straight into guilt.

"We're so sorry, please, please don't take us to jail!"

"We'll do anything, just don't take us to prison with that wretch!"

"Hey." Adagio hollered, silencing them. "I'm not taking anyone to prison, but I do expect you to be a little nicer to not just me, but each other. Okay?"

They gulped and nodded.

"Yes, ma'am." They replied in a robotic tone.

"Now, if I may... I have a few questions. Have you or any of your friends or family posted pictures of me or my sisters on any social media as of late?"

"N-No, never!" Rainbow said quickly, "Well, not that we can... we're all grounded."

"And our parents shut down our social media accounts," Rarity whimpered.

"Well that answers one question. My second question is where is Fluttershy?"

Pinkie was the one to groan this time. "Why don't you ask Skittles, Miss Dat-Azzle?"

Adagio sneered. "Never call me that name."

"Oh, uh, sorry..."

"Where did you even get that name?" Adagio held her face.

"We did manage to sneak a few peaks online and, well... some of the guys and girls had some odd names to refer to your... posterior."

Adagio rolled her eyes. "Somehow I knew that name would come up again... look, just get to the point, where is Fluttershy?"

"She and Rainbow had a bit of a fight, and well... we haven't heard from her since and I don't think she's going to be coming back as long as she's here." Applejack replied.

"Well hopefully she'll be back to school soon." Adagio nodded.

Turning around, she left them back in their small little social group and sat back down with her friends.

"So what was that all about?"

"Fluttershy's sadly not here today. I don't know why, but, hopefully she'll be back tomorrow."

No one else said a thing. They just continued to eat away at their food.

"You know, we probably should talk to them, maybe provide some comfort?" Adagio asked.

"Absolutely not!" Octavia barked. "Let them stew in the misfortune. They brought all of this on themselves, if they wanted to be alright, then they shouldn't have made deals with inter-dimensional psychopaths from a technicolor world with car pastel colored horses!"

The three Sirens raised a few brows, looking at her. Octavia blinked.

"Oh, sorry. Been a bit ragey today. Rushed out the door, barely got breakfast."

"Its fine," Aria said, patting her shoulder.

Awkward silence filled among the group.

"So... want to see our plans for the Halloween party?" Octavia asked.

"Sure."

"Why not?"

Vinyl and Octavia pulled out a big sheet of paper, and displayed the entire room that was set for the party which was all drawn in crayon. With a single pointer stick, they slapped it down on each location of the room. And as Adagio locked her eyes on the plans, she felt a little bit of relief just looking at it. Some stress was going away, finally. And hey, this was something their friends needed help with. Well if they needed help, she'd help!
