Equestria Girls: Sabbath Rocksby Acoustic PulseChaptersFrom Earth to EquestriaBack to SchoolRematch of the BandsAston, Sweet AstonFrom Earth to EquestriaAuthor's Note I've been wanting to do this for a long time. Here goes nothing. I hope you liked reading this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it. From Earth to Equestria Black Sabbath is a band first founded in 1968 by four friends from Birmingham, England. Tonight, after 44 years, the creators of Heavy Metal continued their careers. They were back in Birmingham for a gig. "Man, I'm excited. Can't wait to entertain these people tonight!" Terrence Butler, the bassist, said. "Me neither, mate," Bill Ward, the drummer replied. "Nothing beats a home crowd," Tony Iommi, the guitarist, added. Ozzy Osbourne, the singer, nodded. He half-jogged, half-walked onto the stage. "I CAN'T FUCKIN' HEAR YOU!" Ozzy shouted to the crowd. The crowd erupted with loud cheers. "SABBATH! SABBATH! SABBATH!" they chanted. "LET ME SEE YOUR FUCKIN' HANDS!" Ozzy continued egging on the crowd. "Ready, boys?" Bill asked. "Always." Terrence answered. "ALRIGHT, TO START THIS GIG OFF, WE'RE GONNA DO A NUMBER CALLED INTO THE VOID !" Ozzy informed. Tony began the opening riff, followed closely behind by Terrence's bass and Bill's drums. Ozzy began to sing. It sounded like this: "THANK YOU! Now, this second number is called Symptom of the Universe. This is just to prove that old geezers like us can still rock," Ozzy joked. Tony tuned his guitar and Terrence tuned his bass. "Before we begin, let's hear it for the man who kept this band alive, Mr. Tony Iommi!" Ozzy smiled at his old friend, and clapped along with the crowd. Terrence and Bill joined in too. "ALRIGHT, LET'S FUCKIN' DO THIS!" Ozzy shouted, and the opening riff began. Bill's drumming was right on queue. Terrence was steadily playing his background riff. Ozzy began to sing again. This time, it sounded much heavier: "THANK YOU VERY MUCH! NOW FOR OUR THIRD SONG! This is a song called Age of Reason! It's from our newest album, called 13," Ozzy explained. Bill started off with his drums, followed closely behind by Tony and Terrence. Ozzy began to sing not long after that. Their third performance sounded something like this: It had been cloudy the entire evening, but the meteorologist claimed there'd be no rain. Needless to say, he was wrong. Of course the one time it decides to rain, they're in an outdoor arena. "Oh, for fuck's sake!" Bill groaned. "What's going on with that cloud?" Terrence asked, pointing at a cloud that was swirling like a vortex. A bolt of lightning struck the stage. Everything went black. Ozzy awoke first. Something was strange about where he was. Ozzy was no longer on the stage. 'Where the fuck am I?' the Prince of Darkness thought. Tony woke up next. "What happened?" he asked. "I don't know," Ozzy shrugged. "Bill and Geezer are still unconscious," Tony pointed out. "I hope they're not dead," Ozzy was worried. Terrence stirred. "Ah, shit! What happened? Where are we?" he asked. "No clue. Bill is still unconscious," Tony replied. "Nudge him," Ozzy said. Geezer kicked him lightly,"Get up, mate," he told him. Bill's eyes shot open. "Are we still in Birmingham?" he asked when he sat up. "I don't think so," Tony answered. "Well, we may as well walk around and try to figure this shit out," Terrence said. "Beats sitting around like a bunch of fucking knobheads,"Ozzy laughed. "Let's ask for directions," Bill offered. "Alright, lead the way," Ozzy and his three friends proceeded to walk around the area. Eventually, they stumbled upon a building with several people wandering around it. Their skin was many different colors, including purple. "OH, SHIT! Its the fuckin' Purple People-Eater," Ozzy laughed when he saw a girl with purple skin and a hairstyle that was a slightly darker purple with pink highlights. Before she could say anything, a girl with pink skin and hair ran up. "Aww, man! Twilight met the new people first!" she groaned. "Well, one of them called me the Purple People-Eater," Twilight sighed. Ozzy stifled a laugh. "So, who are you guys anyway?" the pink girl asked. "My name is Ozzy, to my left is Tony, behind him is Bill, and behind me is Terrence," Ozzy answered. "Nice to meet you Ozzy, I'm Pinkie Pie!", the pink girl introduced. "Yeah... nice to meet you too, now can someone or something tell me where the fuck we are?" Ozzy pushed his circular sunglasses back up. "Well, someone's got a vulgar mouth. You're in Canterlot," Twilight replied. "Oh, Canterbury! We're still in England then," Tony breathed a sigh of relief. "No, Canter-LOT!", Twilight corrected. "What the fuck's a Canterlot?" Bill sighed "It's the name of this town," Terrence replied. "Oh. Well, shit," Bill laughed. "So, where are you guys from?" Pinkie asked. "We're from Birmingham," Tony answered. "Alabama?" she asked. "No, god damn it, Birmingham, ENGLAND!" Ozzy sighed and facepalmed. "What country are we even in?" Bill asked. "Equestria. You're in the capital city, Canterlot," Pinkie answered. "How many people live here?", Tony asked trying to count heads as people walked by. "About a thousand. Maybe two," Twilight replied. "Oh, wow. That's it?" Terrence asked. "What do you mean 'That's it?', Terrence?",Pinkie asked. "Well, our capital city, London, back in England has over eight million people," Terrence replied. "WOW! EIGHT MILLION? LET'S MOVE THERE, TWILIGHT! SO MANY FRIENDS TO MAKE!" Pinkie squealed. "But we don't even know where England is. It might not even be on this planet!" Twilight sighed. "We're not on Earth?" Ozzy asked as if it were a surprise. "Nope. Equestria the planet, Equestria the country, Canterlot the city. There's more to this place than just Equestria though. We have Gryphon Territory, and the Badlands. Nobody ever goes to the Badlands though," Twilight replied. "Badlands sounds like my kind of place," Ozzy smirked. "No. Ozzy. Badlands are bad, for lack of a better term," Twilight sighed. "I've been the Prince of Darkness since 1979! I know bad when I see it," Ozzy laughed. "Prince of Darkness?" Twilight backed up a few steps. "It's a stage name. We're a band called Black Sabbath," Bill said. "Ooh, ooh! Ozzy sings, Bill plays drums, Terrence plays bass guitar, and Tony plays electric," Pinkie said, breaking the fourth wall as usual. "H-how'd you know that?" Tony laughed. "Just a hunch," Pinkie smiled. "Ozzy, I think we might have met someone crazier than you," Bill joked. "Bollocks! I'm the craziest person in the world," Ozzy counter-joked. "Well, let's go to my house. We can introduce these new friends to our friends," Pinkie was excited by her idea. "Okay. I'm not sure if Rarity and Fluttershy will approve of their language though," Twilight laughed. "English is English," Ozzy retorted. "Well, let's go!" Pinkie shouted. Black Sabbath and Twilight Sparkle followed Pinkie to her house. "I'll call the other friends. Be right back!" Pinkie skipped up the stairs. "So, who are these friends? I remember you saying the names Rarity and Fluttershy?" Terrence asked. "Well, there's six of us. Seven if you count Sunset Shimmer. Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Sunset Shimmer. You've already met Pinkie and I," Twilight said. "Are your other friends as crazy as she is?" Bill asked. "Nope. Pinkie is one of a kind," Twilight laughed. Pinkie slid down the stair rail and ran into her living room. "They're coming!" Pinkie said. "Alright. Oh, and I forgot to mention. We're a band too. Called the Rainbooms," Twilight said. About ten minutes later, the rest of the Mane Six (and Sunset Shimmer) arrived. "Who's the guitar guy? I wanna see how good he is," the blue one with rainbow hair said. "That'd be me. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Unfortunately, when the swirling cloud vortex teleported us here, our instruments were left behind. Except Ozzy's, since he sings," Tony explained. "You were sent here by a cloud?" the redneck one asked. "Yeah. We were performing at a gig and after the third song, it began to rain. A bolt of lightning struck the stage and we woke up here," Bill answered. "Well, I go through a mirror to get here. I'm from a parallel universe where people are horses," Twilight admitted. "That sounds fucking insane!" Ozzy laughed. "Umm, if you wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate it if you didn't use that kind of language," the yellow girl with pink hair said. "Sorry, bit of a habit," Ozzy shrugged. "Tony, you can use my guitar, but don't break it!" the blue girl said. "Break a guitar? Well, I'd never!" Tony sighed. "Good. By the way, my name's Rainbow Dash," the guitar girl introduced. "Alright, Rainbow. I'll be careful with your guitar," Tony promised. "You guys have a bass guitar and drumset? I think you'll like how the four of us play," Bill asked. "Bill, you can play my drums, they're in the garage," Pinkie invited. "You girls are a garage band?" Ozzy was impressed. "We're not heavy, but we can rock," Rainbow said. "Sunset, you're so quiet. Say something, dear," the ghostly white girl said. "Huh? Oh, sorry. I'm Sunset Shimmer. That's Rarity with the purple hair, Fluttershy has the long pink hair, and Applejack has the awesome hat," she replied. "Well, I can remember your names, at least. I might get you girls mixed up," Terrence laughed. "Well, let's hear you play!" Rainbow shouted. "Alright, alright. We're going to borrow your instruments right quick," Bill said. The seven girls and four men walked into the garage. A purple and green dog was in there and he ran to Twilight. "Hey, everyone," he said. "I thought I quit drugs. Is that dog talking, or did I manage to get high without realizing it?" Ozzy asked. "I'm talking. My name's Spike," he introduced himself. "This is the weirdest place ever. It's like I'm in a cartoon," Ozzy laughed. "Well, I still haven't heard y'all play. I'm not rushin' anyone, I'm just sayin'," Applejack said. Ozzy walked up to the microphone. He tapped it to make sure it was on. Bill went and sat down at Pinkie's drumset. Tony, who had been carrying Rainbow's guitar the whole time, walked over and stood to the left of Ozzy. Terrence walked over to Applejack's bass, to the right of Ozzy, and picked it up. The four men began to play. It sounded like this: After they were done, the girls clapped. "You guys are as good as you said!" Rainbow laughed. "I'd say it puts Flash Sentry to shame," Applejack laughed. "Really, AJ?", Twilight sighed. "Sorry," she shrugged. "Now, how well can you girls play?" Tony asked. "I don't mean to brag, but we're pretty darned good," Rainbow laughed. "We'll listen. Consider it a 'Thank you' for letting us use your instruments," Bill said. "Alright, hit it, girls!", Rainbow shouted. The girls began to play their selective instruments. Rainbow began to sing. The Rainbooms sounded a little something like this: After the girls stopped, the four men of Black Sabbath seemed to be at loss for words. "What the hell was that?" Ozzy asked. "You didn't like it?" Rainbow answered with a question. "No, the song was fine, but you grew like...wings and shit," Ozzy laughed. "Oh, yeah, that. It's nothing," Rainbow lied. "So, I'm just seeing things again?" Ozzy sighed. "I reckon," Applejack replied. "Well, the song wasn't that bad. I've heard worse," Bill said. Terrence laughed and nodded. "Well, the guitar was good. In my honest opinion, that's all that was good. The instrumental," Tony admitted. "Thanks for the constructive criticism," Fluttershy replied. "You're welcome," Tony shrugged. "Well, it's getting late. We should all go home," Rarity said. "Damn, time flies in this dimension," Terrence said, looking at his watch. It said: "21:30". "Well, have a good night, y'all," Applejack waved goodbye and walked away. The rest of the Mane Six, except Pinkie Pie followed her out. Sunset Shimmer wasn't far behind. "Well, I'm going up to bed. The only place left for y'all to sleep is the living room. You guys can crash on the couch, and the floor. Good night. Try not to wake my sister, Maud," Pinkie said. "Alright," Bill replied. "No problem," Tony added. Terrence and Ozzy said nothing, and simply nodded. "Well, there's a couch and two recliners. Which one is gonna sleep on the floor?" Ozzy asked. "I'll sleep on the floor," Bill offered. "Well, that settles it. Good night, gents," Tony said. The four friends went to their respective places and fell asleep. END OF CHAPTER 1! Back to SchoolAuthor's Note I don't why my brain decided to do this. I hope you guys like this at least a little bit. Back to School The four men awoke the next morning. Pinkie was awake, eating cereal. They entered the kitchen to see a grey person who they guessed was Maud, dropping food in front of a rock. "Boulder was hungry," she said in monotone. "Right," Ozzy replied. "Morning, fellas!" Pinkie said. "So, last night wasn't a dream?" Bill sighed. "Nope. It was real," Tony replied. "Well, it could be worse. We could've been struck and killed by the lightning bolt," Terrence said. "I find your optimism soothing, Terrence," Tony smiled. "Help yourselves," Pinkie said, nodding towards the cereal box on the kitchen table. "No, thanks," Bill said. "Still kind of full from supper last night. I'm glad we ate before the gig," Tony laughed. "You're telling me!" Ozzy replied. Terrence nodded. "Alright then. So, did you guys enroll in school?" Pinkie asked. "Enrolled in school? We're all in our 60s!" Bill answered. "Really? You guys don't look like it," Pinkie shrugged. "That's kind of you to say, but Ozzy turns 66 in a couple weeks, Terrence is 65, I'm 66, and Tony will be 67 in February!" Bill said. "Look in the mirror. Trust me, you guys look like 50 years younger," Pinkie laughed, pulling a mirror out of her hair. "Holy shit, she's right. This is fucking far out. I look like I'm back in 10th year," Ozzy laughed. "Was that building a secondary school? I'm telling you, I'm done with school, and there's no way in Hell that I'm going back," Bill said. "Guys, we could take Sabbath back to its roots. It'd be funny for those damned kids to hear our jams," Terrence laughed. "Once again, I find your optimism soothing," Tony joked. "Guys, this is one of those weird movie-in-real-life moments where we get a second chance. I'm happy with my life, but there were a few things I regret, such as drug abuse, and my first wife before Sharon," Ozzy said. "Wait, you're actually considering doing this? I know you're fuckin' crazy, but come on, mate!" Terrence laughed. "Trust me, I've done crazier shit in my day," Ozzy retorted. "I suppose you're right," Terrence laughed again. "Why not? It'll be fun to show those kids what real music is," Tony said. "Let's go, guys," Pinkie said, running out the door. "Fuck it. Let's just get this over with," Bill facepalmed. The first period went by without incident. The second period wasn't as mellow. Ozzy was fed up with Ms. Cheerilee's attitude towards other students. She was usually in a great mood, but she didn't have much sleep the previous night. "QUIET!" she shouted at Ozzy, who was in a heated conversation with Tony. "WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU YELLING AT?!" Ozzy retorted. "Ozzy, calm down. She's just having a bad day," Twilight whispered. "Ozzy, go to the Principal's office. NOW!" she commanded. "Oi, eat shit and die, ya bloomin' twat!", Ozzy sneered. "Ozzy! My god, mate, what's gotten into you?" Tony asked. "I'm sorry, she just pissed me off. Wasn't really thinking," Ozzy explained. "Go to the office!" Cheerilee shouted. "Alright, okay. Don't pop a blood vessel. I didn't mean what I said, I just said it," Ozzy sighed. "That's the problem with kids these days. They don't know when to be quiet," Cherilee scoffed. "Trust me, I know. So, uh, where is the office?" Ozzy laughed. "Last door on the right," Cheerilee facepalmed. "Alright, thanks," Ozzy did one last act of defiance by slamming the door as hard as he could. "Wow, Ozzy went off on Ms. Cheerilee," Rainbow said. "You okay, Ms. Cheerilee?" Sunset asked. "Yes, I've just never heard a student with such a colorful vocabulary. The vulgarities were infinite! " she said. "You get used to it after a while," Bill shrugged. "I don't see what he was doing wrong. All he did was call you names,"Terrence said. "The profanity. It's a school rule. No use of it is allowed," Cheerilee explained. "That makes sense. Otherwise, everyone would be using it, and things would get chaotic," Terrence replied with a nod. "My thoughts exactly," Cheerilee agreed. Ozzy knocked on the door to the office. "It's unlocked, come in," a voice said. Ozzy opened the door. Something was telling him he was going to be let off the hook. "What brings you to my office?" a pale white woman with pink and green hair asked. "I called my second period teacher a twat and told her to eat shit and die," Ozzy said as if it were no biggie. "I'm sure there was a valid reason?" Celestia interrogated. "She had been yelling at other students. I was talking to my friend, Tony, about something important. She yelled at me to be quiet and it pissed me off. She could've just asked," Ozzy laughed. "Did you apologize?", Celestia asked. "I tried. She didn't wanna hear it. I honestly don't give a f---I don't care," Ozzy stopped himself. "Well, I'm going to let you off with a warning. Next time, it's a three-day suspension. Do I make myself clear?" Celestia asked. "Crystal," Ozzy replied. "Good, go to lunch," she said as the bell rang. "Ozzy, have you lost your dadgum mind?" Applejack asked. "Yes," Ozzy said. Well, at least you're honest," Applejack laughed. "Seriously, Ozzy, that was uncalled for," Rarity sneered. "I'm a grown man! I wasn't going to be treated like some trash blowing in the wind!" Ozzy replied. "That was really mean though," Fluttershy whispered. "I've heard him say worse," Terrence laughed. "Worse than that?" Twilight was flabbergasted. "Yep," Terrence confirmed. Sunset didn't say anything. She tried not to laugh at Twilight's facial expression. "What's so funny?" Pinkie asked. "Twilight's facial expression was funny to me," she shrugged. "Oh," Pinkie said. The eleven friends ate their lunches and went to their last class. "Ozzy, try to keep it clean, mate," Bill requested. "No promise," Ozzy laughed. Regardless of his joking, Ozzy managed to get through the last class without incident. The eleven friends all congregated at Pinkie's house again. "Well, today was interesting to say the least," Twilight said. "I reckon," Applejack agreed. "I think it's safe to say that Ozzy and the rest of us aren't going back," Tony said. "It's probably for the best," Bill added. "Alright then," Twilight said. END OF CHAPTER 2! Rematch of the BandsAuthor's Note Can't have a story about bands without the Sirens. Rematch of the Bands The next day, the band decided to take a walk around town. "I'm telling you one thing, man, this is a weird place," Ozzy broke the silence. "It sure as hell is," Bill replied. "Here I was thinking America was strange. This place is by far the craziest and most colorful town that I've ever had the misfortune of teleporting into," Tony joked. "You said it, mate," Terrence added. "The locals are weird too. Well, the ones we've met at least," Bill said. "I have no comment on that because I'm pretty damned weird myself," Ozzy quipped. The others laughed, and they continue walking around town. They bumped into a group of three girls while they weren't paying attention. "WATCH IT!" a yellow girl with orange and yellow hair exclaimed. "My apologies. I wasn't watching where I was going," Tony chuckled. "You laughing at The Dazzlings?" a blue girl with two-toned blue hair asked. "The whats?" Terrence asked. "You mean you've never heard of us?" a pink girl with purple and green hair asked. "Nope. Don't take it personal, we've just never heard of them," Tony shrugged. "Well, we'll tell you who we are. We're a band. My name's Adagio Dazzle, the girl with the blue hair is Sonata Dusk, and that third girl is Aria Blaze. DON'T FORGET IT!" Adagio shouted. "Well, I'm Ozzy, to my right is Tony, to my left is Terrence, and to the right of Tony is Bill. We're Black Sabbath. You're probably too young to know who we are," Ozzy laughed. "Are you calling us stupid?" Sonata asked. "No, child, nobody said anything about anyone being stupid," Terrence replied. "Maybe you four guys could help us with something?" Aria offered. "With what?" Bill wondered. "Well, we lost a competition with The Rainbooms back in September. We were planning a rematch. I thought it would make things interesting if we had a third band. It would be The Dazzlings versus the The Rainbooms versus Black Sabbath," Adagio explained. "Why the fuck would we waste our time with that?" Ozzy asked, raising an eyebrow behind his sunglasses. "Scared?" Adagio challenged. "Scared of you? I've been rocking since before you were born! Many people credit our band with the invention of Heavy Metal. We'll mop the floor with your Dazzling Rainbooms or whatever the fuck you call yourselves," Ozzy scoffed. "So it's a battle then?" Sonata asked. "You bet your pastel-colored ass it's a battle," Ozzy sneered. "Ozzy, calm down, mate, we all know who's gonna win," Tony laughed. "Oh, you guys won't win. We've got tricks up our sleeve," Sonata said. "Tricks are for kids," Ozzy retorted. "OH, I'VE HAD IT WITH YOU FOUR!" Sonata screamed, and went to catch up with Aria and Adagio. "Kids. Can't get anything through their thick skulls nowadays," Bill joked. "Amen to that," Terrence laughed. The Mane Six and Sunset Shimmer walked towards Ozzy and Black Sabbath. "What in Equestria was that all about?" Applejack asked. "Damned kids challenged us to some band battle contest thing. I warned them that they were going to lose, but kids never listen," Bill answered. "The Dazzlings?" Twilight guessed. "Yeah. They said The Rainshrooms--,"Ozzy started. "Rain-BOOMS!" Rainbow corrected. "Whatever!" Ozzy shrugged. "So they're challenging us to a rematch, and you guys are got dragged into it?" Sunset asked. "Yes, Sunset, that's right," Tony nodded. "Aren't you guys like the inventors of Heavy Metal?" Pinkie asked. "Many people say that. I woulf personally credit Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix," Terrence confirmed. "Once again, how do you even know that?" Tony asked. "Just a hunch," Pinkie said. "I think we're going to have trouble with The Dazzlings. Those girls are always up to no good," Fluttershy sighed. "Well, I reckon we'll cross that bridge when we get to it," Applejack said. "Oh, Fluttershy. You worry too much, darling. Since when have your friends ever let you down?" Rarity motivated. "Yeah, you're right," Fluttershy nodded. "Don't worry, we'll show them, even if it means losing to Black Sabbath," Rainbow said. "Good luck, girls. I'm afraid you're going to need it," Tony said. "Good luck to you too," Sunset replied. "We really need to rent a place," Bill laughed. "I wonder if they take Pounds in this dimension?" Ozzy joked. "I dunno. That would be funny," Terrence replied. "Worth a shot, I suppose," Tony shrugged. They continued walking until they found an apartment building. "Hey, you guys have a place available?", Bill asked. "Just one. It'll be 100 bits a month," a stallion at the counter answered. "What the clusterfucking hell is a Bit?" Ozzy asked. "Equestrian currency," the clerk replied. "Do you take Pounds? I have £300 with me right now," Bill asked. "What are pounds?" the clerk wondered. "English currency," Terrence answered. "Well, money's money, right?" the clerk laughed. "Yeah," Tony agreed. "Alright, top floor, first door on the left," the clerk said, taking £100 from Bill. The following day, Black Sabbath ended up meeting The Dazzlings in the streets. "Competition's tonight at 20:30. Be there or be square," Sonata said. "We'll be there. Count on it," Ozzy laughed. The three girls rolled their eyes and walked away. "That was odd," Terrence shrugged. "Odd is an understatement," Tony laughed. The time for the challenge was approaching. The Rainbooms and Black Sabbath were talking about how stupid this rematch idea was, and how there was no chance for The Dazzlings to win. "They're fucked. There is no way in hell," Ozzy laughed. "Well, they might get second, but I highly doubt that they'll beat us," Bill laughed. "Well, from the looks of things, Ozzy seems hellbent on proving his point," Applejack said. "Yeah, that sounds about right," Rainbow nodded. "Time to take the stage," Twilight said, pointing in its direction. The Dazzlings stood on stage, a few curious students had congregated in front of it. "Thanks for coming! Tonight, the Rainbooms and The Dazzlings are gonna have ourselves a little bit of a rematch," Adagio said. "But that's not the only band we'll be going up against. Tonight, it's Triple Threat. Every band for themselves. Black Sabbath will be participating as well," Sonata added. "I just came for the hell of it," Aria shrugged, causing a couple laughs in the crowd. "Seriously, Aria?" Adagio sighed. "What? It's true," Aria retorted. "Anyway, let's get started! Each band will only perform one song. No more, no less, no exceptions," Adagio explained. "We're gonna do our song, Under Our Spell. Don't worry, it shouldn't hypnotize you this time," Sonata laughed. The girls began: After their song was done, and the crowd of students,which had grown exponentially, calmed down, Adagio took the mic. "Thank you! Up next is The Rainbooms!" she said, and The Dazzlings exited. Next, the Rainbooms took the stage. "Hey, everyone. Thanks for wasting a little bit of your lives just to hear us play. It means a lot! Tonight, for our one-shot performance, we'll be doing our song called Perfect Day For Fun!" Rainbow explained. Black Sabbath, The Dazzlings, and Sunset Shimmer hung out backstage. "Still think you can beat us?" Aria asked. "Nope. I know we can," Bill laughed. "What do you think, Sunset?" Adagio asked. 'I'll tell you what Ozzy told me. You guys are toast. There's now way in Equestria that you're gonna win," Sunset laughed, censoring Ozzy's quote. "I guess we'll see," Sonata sneered. The Rainbooms began their performance: There was applause from the crowd. They were slightly louder than when they were cheering for The Dazzlings. "That puts us ahead, but only slightly," Twilight said. "Black Sabbath is gonna destroy us," Rainbow sighed. They exited the stage. "Ozzy, your band's up!" Sunset said. "Alright, thanks. Hey, Adagio, eat your heart out," he teased. "Oh, just go out there!" Adagio scoffed. Black Sabbath entered the stage area. "Good evening! I hope everyone is doing well tonight. For our performance this evening, we're gonna do a song called Hole in the Sky!" Ozzy explained. The crowd was confused, but were curious. Tony, Terrence, and Bill began their instrumental onslaught, followed by Ozzy's vocals. The guys sounded like this: The crowd exploded with applause. It was way louder than even Ozzy expected. "Bloody hell, it sounds like the FIFA World Cup out here!" he joked. "Well, I think it's safe to say who won," Bill laughed. The other two bands joined them on stage. "Alright, now we're gonna have a vote. There's about 40 of you out there, so we'll send a clipboard and you'll draw a tally next to the band that did the best by your standards alone. Don't let your friends persuade you into choosing a different band," Adagio instructed. "Results are in!" Sonata was jumpy. "In third place with 10 votes, is... The Dazzlings," Adagio sighed. "In second place with 12 votes, The Rainbooms!" Aria revealed. "And in first place with 18 votes, Black Sabbath!" Sonata said through clinched teeth. "Well, that was fun. Now what?" Sunset asked. "Let's all just go home," Rainbow shrugged. "Alright," Ozzy said. The fourteen people from three different bands each went back to their respective homesteads. END OF CHAPTER 3! Aston, Sweet AstonAuthor's Note Here's the final chapter. Hope you enjoyed. Aston, Sweet Aston The next day, the four men awoke to the sound of thunder. "Well, damn. Looks like rain," Terrence sighed. "Do you hear the thunder raging in the sky?" Ozzy sang. The others laughed. "Ozzy, you're still a trip after all these years," Bill chuckled. "It's who I am, Bill," Ozzy replied. "Ain't that the truth?" Terrence said. "What kind of shenanigans are we going to get ourselves into today?" Ozzy asked. "Not sure. Hopefully none, but in this dimension, there's no telling. We've done everything from falling out of the sky to winning a band contest," Tony shrugged. "I have an idea. It might work, and I think it could help us get back to England. We've been missing for three days, and the world probably thinks we're all dead," Bill said. "What is it?" Tony asked. "Yes, what?" Terrence added. "Well, wasn't it a lightning bolt that got us here?" Bill asked, looking out the window as a crack of thunder went off outside. "Are you fucking mad?" Ozzy asked, catching on to what Bill was thinking. "Maybe a little. It's worth a shot," Bill shrugged. "I guess you're right," Terrence said. "You know, I think Bill is onto something here, mates!" Tony was thinking of ways to improve Bill's idea. "Don't tell me you're having ideas too," Terrence laughed. "I am. Remember the swirling cloud? It was like a whirlpool in the sky," Tony asked. "Yes. It's what got us here. Are you suggesting we go in the rain just to find a spinning cloud to zap us back home?" Terrence asked. "I've done crazier shit in my day. I bit a bat's head off, I snorted fire ants, I also bit a dove's head off, I did drugs of all kinds, how in the fuck am I still alive?" Ozzy rambled. "I don't know, but we're glad to have you back," Tony retorted. "Glad to be back. 36 years. That was the timespan between Never Say Die and 13. Long motherfucking time, I might add," Ozzy chuckled. "I still can't believe Ronnie died 4 years ago," Tony added. "That was a sad loss for the Sabbath family," Terrence nodded. "Let's try the lightning thing," Bill cut in, so the reminiscences would stop. "Alright," Ozzy said, and the men followed Bill outside. It was pouring rain when they got outside. "I HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE DOING!" Ozzy shouted over the wind. "WOULD YOU BE SURPRISED IF I SAID NO?" Bill replied. "NOT REALLY!" Ozzy shrugged. "THERE'S NO SIGN OF ANY SWIRLING CLOUDS!" Terrence sighed. "IT'S LIKE HURRICANE FORCE WINDS OUT HERE!" Tony laughed. "WAIT! I THINK I SEE ONE!" Bill shouted, pointing to the sky. "I SEE IT TOO, NOW WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR LIGHTNING!" Terrence shouted. BOOM!, a bolt of lightning came down just in front of the four men. The blast knocked them down, and out. Tony wakes up first. "Oi, I remember it feeling less painful the first time," he muttered to himself. Terrence and Bill both sat up simultaneously. "Well, that was fun," Bill laughed. "You're a bloody nutcase, mate," Terrence grinned. "Someone wake up Ozzy," Tony said. "Alright," Bill replied, and he slapped the shit out of him. "I'M UP!" Ozzy shouted. "Sorry. Well, it's good to be back home," Bill shrugged. "Aston, sweet Aston," Terrence said. "I wonder how Sharon's gonna react when she sees you alive after being missing for three days?" Tony joked. "She'll probably kick his ass, and ask him where he's been," Bill said. "Wouldn't surprise me," Tony laughed. "I'll deal with it when the time comes," Ozzy replied. "Well, gentlemen, it's been a hell of a journey, but I'm ready to go home. I'll be seeing you all around," Tony said. "Where are you going?" Bill asked. "To get my guitar, if no one's stolen it," Tony answered. "Shit, that reminds me. I'll tag along. Hopefully, my bass is still there," Terrence frantically jogged to catch up to Tony. "I still have to pack up my drumset," Bill remembered, and he went back to catch up with Tony and Terrence. "GOOD LUCK, MATES! I'M GOING TO SEE IF I CAN GET A FLIGHT BACK TO LOS ANGELES!" Ozzy called, waving goodbye to his friends. "WE'LL SEE YOU AROUND, OZZY!" the others called back. The three men who went back to the stage found their instruments surprisingly untouched, and unscathed. "Well, now the world knows we're alive. There's no way what just happened was unnoticed," Bill laughed. "Glad your idea worked, Bill. Some brain cells are still alive in there after all," Terrence joked. "Oh, bollocks. You smoked about as many joints as Ozzy did back in the day. You used to be baked like cake," Bill retorted. "Wake and bake," Tony chuckled. "Glad we don't do that anymore," Bill said. "Us too," Terrence and Tony replied. Ozzy had finally gotten a flight back to Beverly Hills. He was ready to see Sharon. When he got home, unlocked the door and walked inside, Sharon was making breakfast. "SHARON! I'm home!" Ozzy called. "OZZY?! Where have you been? Everyone thought you had died," Sharon playfully slapped him and gave him a hug. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you," Ozzy laughed. "Try me," Sharon retorted. "When the lightning bolt struck the stage, it teleported me and the band into this strange world with multi-colored people. There were green people, purple people, talking fucking dogs, it was a damned mess. We got struck by another lightning bolt today, which is how we got home," Ozzy explained. "That does sound unbelievable," Sharon chuckled. "I've been sober for thirteen years, so it wasn't drugs," Ozzy promised. "I've heard crazier things," Sharon hugged Ozzy again, happy to see he was still in one crazy, 65-year-old, piece. THE END!
From Earth to EquestriaAuthor's Note I've been wanting to do this for a long time. Here goes nothing. I hope you liked reading this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it. From Earth to Equestria Black Sabbath is a band first founded in 1968 by four friends from Birmingham, England. Tonight, after 44 years, the creators of Heavy Metal continued their careers. They were back in Birmingham for a gig. "Man, I'm excited. Can't wait to entertain these people tonight!" Terrence Butler, the bassist, said. "Me neither, mate," Bill Ward, the drummer replied. "Nothing beats a home crowd," Tony Iommi, the guitarist, added. Ozzy Osbourne, the singer, nodded. He half-jogged, half-walked onto the stage. "I CAN'T FUCKIN' HEAR YOU!" Ozzy shouted to the crowd. The crowd erupted with loud cheers. "SABBATH! SABBATH! SABBATH!" they chanted. "LET ME SEE YOUR FUCKIN' HANDS!" Ozzy continued egging on the crowd. "Ready, boys?" Bill asked. "Always." Terrence answered. "ALRIGHT, TO START THIS GIG OFF, WE'RE GONNA DO A NUMBER CALLED INTO THE VOID !" Ozzy informed. Tony began the opening riff, followed closely behind by Terrence's bass and Bill's drums. Ozzy began to sing. It sounded like this: "THANK YOU! Now, this second number is called Symptom of the Universe. This is just to prove that old geezers like us can still rock," Ozzy joked. Tony tuned his guitar and Terrence tuned his bass. "Before we begin, let's hear it for the man who kept this band alive, Mr. Tony Iommi!" Ozzy smiled at his old friend, and clapped along with the crowd. Terrence and Bill joined in too. "ALRIGHT, LET'S FUCKIN' DO THIS!" Ozzy shouted, and the opening riff began. Bill's drumming was right on queue. Terrence was steadily playing his background riff. Ozzy began to sing again. This time, it sounded much heavier: "THANK YOU VERY MUCH! NOW FOR OUR THIRD SONG! This is a song called Age of Reason! It's from our newest album, called 13," Ozzy explained. Bill started off with his drums, followed closely behind by Tony and Terrence. Ozzy began to sing not long after that. Their third performance sounded something like this: It had been cloudy the entire evening, but the meteorologist claimed there'd be no rain. Needless to say, he was wrong. Of course the one time it decides to rain, they're in an outdoor arena. "Oh, for fuck's sake!" Bill groaned. "What's going on with that cloud?" Terrence asked, pointing at a cloud that was swirling like a vortex. A bolt of lightning struck the stage. Everything went black. Ozzy awoke first. Something was strange about where he was. Ozzy was no longer on the stage. 'Where the fuck am I?' the Prince of Darkness thought. Tony woke up next. "What happened?" he asked. "I don't know," Ozzy shrugged. "Bill and Geezer are still unconscious," Tony pointed out. "I hope they're not dead," Ozzy was worried. Terrence stirred. "Ah, shit! What happened? Where are we?" he asked. "No clue. Bill is still unconscious," Tony replied. "Nudge him," Ozzy said. Geezer kicked him lightly,"Get up, mate," he told him. Bill's eyes shot open. "Are we still in Birmingham?" he asked when he sat up. "I don't think so," Tony answered. "Well, we may as well walk around and try to figure this shit out," Terrence said. "Beats sitting around like a bunch of fucking knobheads,"Ozzy laughed. "Let's ask for directions," Bill offered. "Alright, lead the way," Ozzy and his three friends proceeded to walk around the area. Eventually, they stumbled upon a building with several people wandering around it. Their skin was many different colors, including purple. "OH, SHIT! Its the fuckin' Purple People-Eater," Ozzy laughed when he saw a girl with purple skin and a hairstyle that was a slightly darker purple with pink highlights. Before she could say anything, a girl with pink skin and hair ran up. "Aww, man! Twilight met the new people first!" she groaned. "Well, one of them called me the Purple People-Eater," Twilight sighed. Ozzy stifled a laugh. "So, who are you guys anyway?" the pink girl asked. "My name is Ozzy, to my left is Tony, behind him is Bill, and behind me is Terrence," Ozzy answered. "Nice to meet you Ozzy, I'm Pinkie Pie!", the pink girl introduced. "Yeah... nice to meet you too, now can someone or something tell me where the fuck we are?" Ozzy pushed his circular sunglasses back up. "Well, someone's got a vulgar mouth. You're in Canterlot," Twilight replied. "Oh, Canterbury! We're still in England then," Tony breathed a sigh of relief. "No, Canter-LOT!", Twilight corrected. "What the fuck's a Canterlot?" Bill sighed "It's the name of this town," Terrence replied. "Oh. Well, shit," Bill laughed. "So, where are you guys from?" Pinkie asked. "We're from Birmingham," Tony answered. "Alabama?" she asked. "No, god damn it, Birmingham, ENGLAND!" Ozzy sighed and facepalmed. "What country are we even in?" Bill asked. "Equestria. You're in the capital city, Canterlot," Pinkie answered. "How many people live here?", Tony asked trying to count heads as people walked by. "About a thousand. Maybe two," Twilight replied. "Oh, wow. That's it?" Terrence asked. "What do you mean 'That's it?', Terrence?",Pinkie asked. "Well, our capital city, London, back in England has over eight million people," Terrence replied. "WOW! EIGHT MILLION? LET'S MOVE THERE, TWILIGHT! SO MANY FRIENDS TO MAKE!" Pinkie squealed. "But we don't even know where England is. It might not even be on this planet!" Twilight sighed. "We're not on Earth?" Ozzy asked as if it were a surprise. "Nope. Equestria the planet, Equestria the country, Canterlot the city. There's more to this place than just Equestria though. We have Gryphon Territory, and the Badlands. Nobody ever goes to the Badlands though," Twilight replied. "Badlands sounds like my kind of place," Ozzy smirked. "No. Ozzy. Badlands are bad, for lack of a better term," Twilight sighed. "I've been the Prince of Darkness since 1979! I know bad when I see it," Ozzy laughed. "Prince of Darkness?" Twilight backed up a few steps. "It's a stage name. We're a band called Black Sabbath," Bill said. "Ooh, ooh! Ozzy sings, Bill plays drums, Terrence plays bass guitar, and Tony plays electric," Pinkie said, breaking the fourth wall as usual. "H-how'd you know that?" Tony laughed. "Just a hunch," Pinkie smiled. "Ozzy, I think we might have met someone crazier than you," Bill joked. "Bollocks! I'm the craziest person in the world," Ozzy counter-joked. "Well, let's go to my house. We can introduce these new friends to our friends," Pinkie was excited by her idea. "Okay. I'm not sure if Rarity and Fluttershy will approve of their language though," Twilight laughed. "English is English," Ozzy retorted. "Well, let's go!" Pinkie shouted. Black Sabbath and Twilight Sparkle followed Pinkie to her house. "I'll call the other friends. Be right back!" Pinkie skipped up the stairs. "So, who are these friends? I remember you saying the names Rarity and Fluttershy?" Terrence asked. "Well, there's six of us. Seven if you count Sunset Shimmer. Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Sunset Shimmer. You've already met Pinkie and I," Twilight said. "Are your other friends as crazy as she is?" Bill asked. "Nope. Pinkie is one of a kind," Twilight laughed. Pinkie slid down the stair rail and ran into her living room. "They're coming!" Pinkie said. "Alright. Oh, and I forgot to mention. We're a band too. Called the Rainbooms," Twilight said. About ten minutes later, the rest of the Mane Six (and Sunset Shimmer) arrived. "Who's the guitar guy? I wanna see how good he is," the blue one with rainbow hair said. "That'd be me. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Unfortunately, when the swirling cloud vortex teleported us here, our instruments were left behind. Except Ozzy's, since he sings," Tony explained. "You were sent here by a cloud?" the redneck one asked. "Yeah. We were performing at a gig and after the third song, it began to rain. A bolt of lightning struck the stage and we woke up here," Bill answered. "Well, I go through a mirror to get here. I'm from a parallel universe where people are horses," Twilight admitted. "That sounds fucking insane!" Ozzy laughed. "Umm, if you wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate it if you didn't use that kind of language," the yellow girl with pink hair said. "Sorry, bit of a habit," Ozzy shrugged. "Tony, you can use my guitar, but don't break it!" the blue girl said. "Break a guitar? Well, I'd never!" Tony sighed. "Good. By the way, my name's Rainbow Dash," the guitar girl introduced. "Alright, Rainbow. I'll be careful with your guitar," Tony promised. "You guys have a bass guitar and drumset? I think you'll like how the four of us play," Bill asked. "Bill, you can play my drums, they're in the garage," Pinkie invited. "You girls are a garage band?" Ozzy was impressed. "We're not heavy, but we can rock," Rainbow said. "Sunset, you're so quiet. Say something, dear," the ghostly white girl said. "Huh? Oh, sorry. I'm Sunset Shimmer. That's Rarity with the purple hair, Fluttershy has the long pink hair, and Applejack has the awesome hat," she replied. "Well, I can remember your names, at least. I might get you girls mixed up," Terrence laughed. "Well, let's hear you play!" Rainbow shouted. "Alright, alright. We're going to borrow your instruments right quick," Bill said. The seven girls and four men walked into the garage. A purple and green dog was in there and he ran to Twilight. "Hey, everyone," he said. "I thought I quit drugs. Is that dog talking, or did I manage to get high without realizing it?" Ozzy asked. "I'm talking. My name's Spike," he introduced himself. "This is the weirdest place ever. It's like I'm in a cartoon," Ozzy laughed. "Well, I still haven't heard y'all play. I'm not rushin' anyone, I'm just sayin'," Applejack said. Ozzy walked up to the microphone. He tapped it to make sure it was on. Bill went and sat down at Pinkie's drumset. Tony, who had been carrying Rainbow's guitar the whole time, walked over and stood to the left of Ozzy. Terrence walked over to Applejack's bass, to the right of Ozzy, and picked it up. The four men began to play. It sounded like this: After they were done, the girls clapped. "You guys are as good as you said!" Rainbow laughed. "I'd say it puts Flash Sentry to shame," Applejack laughed. "Really, AJ?", Twilight sighed. "Sorry," she shrugged. "Now, how well can you girls play?" Tony asked. "I don't mean to brag, but we're pretty darned good," Rainbow laughed. "We'll listen. Consider it a 'Thank you' for letting us use your instruments," Bill said. "Alright, hit it, girls!", Rainbow shouted. The girls began to play their selective instruments. Rainbow began to sing. The Rainbooms sounded a little something like this: After the girls stopped, the four men of Black Sabbath seemed to be at loss for words. "What the hell was that?" Ozzy asked. "You didn't like it?" Rainbow answered with a question. "No, the song was fine, but you grew like...wings and shit," Ozzy laughed. "Oh, yeah, that. It's nothing," Rainbow lied. "So, I'm just seeing things again?" Ozzy sighed. "I reckon," Applejack replied. "Well, the song wasn't that bad. I've heard worse," Bill said. Terrence laughed and nodded. "Well, the guitar was good. In my honest opinion, that's all that was good. The instrumental," Tony admitted. "Thanks for the constructive criticism," Fluttershy replied. "You're welcome," Tony shrugged. "Well, it's getting late. We should all go home," Rarity said. "Damn, time flies in this dimension," Terrence said, looking at his watch. It said: "21:30". "Well, have a good night, y'all," Applejack waved goodbye and walked away. The rest of the Mane Six, except Pinkie Pie followed her out. Sunset Shimmer wasn't far behind. "Well, I'm going up to bed. The only place left for y'all to sleep is the living room. You guys can crash on the couch, and the floor. Good night. Try not to wake my sister, Maud," Pinkie said. "Alright," Bill replied. "No problem," Tony added. Terrence and Ozzy said nothing, and simply nodded. "Well, there's a couch and two recliners. Which one is gonna sleep on the floor?" Ozzy asked. "I'll sleep on the floor," Bill offered. "Well, that settles it. Good night, gents," Tony said. The four friends went to their respective places and fell asleep. END OF CHAPTER 1!
Back to SchoolAuthor's Note I don't why my brain decided to do this. I hope you guys like this at least a little bit. Back to School The four men awoke the next morning. Pinkie was awake, eating cereal. They entered the kitchen to see a grey person who they guessed was Maud, dropping food in front of a rock. "Boulder was hungry," she said in monotone. "Right," Ozzy replied. "Morning, fellas!" Pinkie said. "So, last night wasn't a dream?" Bill sighed. "Nope. It was real," Tony replied. "Well, it could be worse. We could've been struck and killed by the lightning bolt," Terrence said. "I find your optimism soothing, Terrence," Tony smiled. "Help yourselves," Pinkie said, nodding towards the cereal box on the kitchen table. "No, thanks," Bill said. "Still kind of full from supper last night. I'm glad we ate before the gig," Tony laughed. "You're telling me!" Ozzy replied. Terrence nodded. "Alright then. So, did you guys enroll in school?" Pinkie asked. "Enrolled in school? We're all in our 60s!" Bill answered. "Really? You guys don't look like it," Pinkie shrugged. "That's kind of you to say, but Ozzy turns 66 in a couple weeks, Terrence is 65, I'm 66, and Tony will be 67 in February!" Bill said. "Look in the mirror. Trust me, you guys look like 50 years younger," Pinkie laughed, pulling a mirror out of her hair. "Holy shit, she's right. This is fucking far out. I look like I'm back in 10th year," Ozzy laughed. "Was that building a secondary school? I'm telling you, I'm done with school, and there's no way in Hell that I'm going back," Bill said. "Guys, we could take Sabbath back to its roots. It'd be funny for those damned kids to hear our jams," Terrence laughed. "Once again, I find your optimism soothing," Tony joked. "Guys, this is one of those weird movie-in-real-life moments where we get a second chance. I'm happy with my life, but there were a few things I regret, such as drug abuse, and my first wife before Sharon," Ozzy said. "Wait, you're actually considering doing this? I know you're fuckin' crazy, but come on, mate!" Terrence laughed. "Trust me, I've done crazier shit in my day," Ozzy retorted. "I suppose you're right," Terrence laughed again. "Why not? It'll be fun to show those kids what real music is," Tony said. "Let's go, guys," Pinkie said, running out the door. "Fuck it. Let's just get this over with," Bill facepalmed. The first period went by without incident. The second period wasn't as mellow. Ozzy was fed up with Ms. Cheerilee's attitude towards other students. She was usually in a great mood, but she didn't have much sleep the previous night. "QUIET!" she shouted at Ozzy, who was in a heated conversation with Tony. "WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU YELLING AT?!" Ozzy retorted. "Ozzy, calm down. She's just having a bad day," Twilight whispered. "Ozzy, go to the Principal's office. NOW!" she commanded. "Oi, eat shit and die, ya bloomin' twat!", Ozzy sneered. "Ozzy! My god, mate, what's gotten into you?" Tony asked. "I'm sorry, she just pissed me off. Wasn't really thinking," Ozzy explained. "Go to the office!" Cheerilee shouted. "Alright, okay. Don't pop a blood vessel. I didn't mean what I said, I just said it," Ozzy sighed. "That's the problem with kids these days. They don't know when to be quiet," Cherilee scoffed. "Trust me, I know. So, uh, where is the office?" Ozzy laughed. "Last door on the right," Cheerilee facepalmed. "Alright, thanks," Ozzy did one last act of defiance by slamming the door as hard as he could. "Wow, Ozzy went off on Ms. Cheerilee," Rainbow said. "You okay, Ms. Cheerilee?" Sunset asked. "Yes, I've just never heard a student with such a colorful vocabulary. The vulgarities were infinite! " she said. "You get used to it after a while," Bill shrugged. "I don't see what he was doing wrong. All he did was call you names,"Terrence said. "The profanity. It's a school rule. No use of it is allowed," Cheerilee explained. "That makes sense. Otherwise, everyone would be using it, and things would get chaotic," Terrence replied with a nod. "My thoughts exactly," Cheerilee agreed. Ozzy knocked on the door to the office. "It's unlocked, come in," a voice said. Ozzy opened the door. Something was telling him he was going to be let off the hook. "What brings you to my office?" a pale white woman with pink and green hair asked. "I called my second period teacher a twat and told her to eat shit and die," Ozzy said as if it were no biggie. "I'm sure there was a valid reason?" Celestia interrogated. "She had been yelling at other students. I was talking to my friend, Tony, about something important. She yelled at me to be quiet and it pissed me off. She could've just asked," Ozzy laughed. "Did you apologize?", Celestia asked. "I tried. She didn't wanna hear it. I honestly don't give a f---I don't care," Ozzy stopped himself. "Well, I'm going to let you off with a warning. Next time, it's a three-day suspension. Do I make myself clear?" Celestia asked. "Crystal," Ozzy replied. "Good, go to lunch," she said as the bell rang. "Ozzy, have you lost your dadgum mind?" Applejack asked. "Yes," Ozzy said. Well, at least you're honest," Applejack laughed. "Seriously, Ozzy, that was uncalled for," Rarity sneered. "I'm a grown man! I wasn't going to be treated like some trash blowing in the wind!" Ozzy replied. "That was really mean though," Fluttershy whispered. "I've heard him say worse," Terrence laughed. "Worse than that?" Twilight was flabbergasted. "Yep," Terrence confirmed. Sunset didn't say anything. She tried not to laugh at Twilight's facial expression. "What's so funny?" Pinkie asked. "Twilight's facial expression was funny to me," she shrugged. "Oh," Pinkie said. The eleven friends ate their lunches and went to their last class. "Ozzy, try to keep it clean, mate," Bill requested. "No promise," Ozzy laughed. Regardless of his joking, Ozzy managed to get through the last class without incident. The eleven friends all congregated at Pinkie's house again. "Well, today was interesting to say the least," Twilight said. "I reckon," Applejack agreed. "I think it's safe to say that Ozzy and the rest of us aren't going back," Tony said. "It's probably for the best," Bill added. "Alright then," Twilight said. END OF CHAPTER 2!
Rematch of the BandsAuthor's Note Can't have a story about bands without the Sirens. Rematch of the Bands The next day, the band decided to take a walk around town. "I'm telling you one thing, man, this is a weird place," Ozzy broke the silence. "It sure as hell is," Bill replied. "Here I was thinking America was strange. This place is by far the craziest and most colorful town that I've ever had the misfortune of teleporting into," Tony joked. "You said it, mate," Terrence added. "The locals are weird too. Well, the ones we've met at least," Bill said. "I have no comment on that because I'm pretty damned weird myself," Ozzy quipped. The others laughed, and they continue walking around town. They bumped into a group of three girls while they weren't paying attention. "WATCH IT!" a yellow girl with orange and yellow hair exclaimed. "My apologies. I wasn't watching where I was going," Tony chuckled. "You laughing at The Dazzlings?" a blue girl with two-toned blue hair asked. "The whats?" Terrence asked. "You mean you've never heard of us?" a pink girl with purple and green hair asked. "Nope. Don't take it personal, we've just never heard of them," Tony shrugged. "Well, we'll tell you who we are. We're a band. My name's Adagio Dazzle, the girl with the blue hair is Sonata Dusk, and that third girl is Aria Blaze. DON'T FORGET IT!" Adagio shouted. "Well, I'm Ozzy, to my right is Tony, to my left is Terrence, and to the right of Tony is Bill. We're Black Sabbath. You're probably too young to know who we are," Ozzy laughed. "Are you calling us stupid?" Sonata asked. "No, child, nobody said anything about anyone being stupid," Terrence replied. "Maybe you four guys could help us with something?" Aria offered. "With what?" Bill wondered. "Well, we lost a competition with The Rainbooms back in September. We were planning a rematch. I thought it would make things interesting if we had a third band. It would be The Dazzlings versus the The Rainbooms versus Black Sabbath," Adagio explained. "Why the fuck would we waste our time with that?" Ozzy asked, raising an eyebrow behind his sunglasses. "Scared?" Adagio challenged. "Scared of you? I've been rocking since before you were born! Many people credit our band with the invention of Heavy Metal. We'll mop the floor with your Dazzling Rainbooms or whatever the fuck you call yourselves," Ozzy scoffed. "So it's a battle then?" Sonata asked. "You bet your pastel-colored ass it's a battle," Ozzy sneered. "Ozzy, calm down, mate, we all know who's gonna win," Tony laughed. "Oh, you guys won't win. We've got tricks up our sleeve," Sonata said. "Tricks are for kids," Ozzy retorted. "OH, I'VE HAD IT WITH YOU FOUR!" Sonata screamed, and went to catch up with Aria and Adagio. "Kids. Can't get anything through their thick skulls nowadays," Bill joked. "Amen to that," Terrence laughed. The Mane Six and Sunset Shimmer walked towards Ozzy and Black Sabbath. "What in Equestria was that all about?" Applejack asked. "Damned kids challenged us to some band battle contest thing. I warned them that they were going to lose, but kids never listen," Bill answered. "The Dazzlings?" Twilight guessed. "Yeah. They said The Rainshrooms--,"Ozzy started. "Rain-BOOMS!" Rainbow corrected. "Whatever!" Ozzy shrugged. "So they're challenging us to a rematch, and you guys are got dragged into it?" Sunset asked. "Yes, Sunset, that's right," Tony nodded. "Aren't you guys like the inventors of Heavy Metal?" Pinkie asked. "Many people say that. I woulf personally credit Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix," Terrence confirmed. "Once again, how do you even know that?" Tony asked. "Just a hunch," Pinkie said. "I think we're going to have trouble with The Dazzlings. Those girls are always up to no good," Fluttershy sighed. "Well, I reckon we'll cross that bridge when we get to it," Applejack said. "Oh, Fluttershy. You worry too much, darling. Since when have your friends ever let you down?" Rarity motivated. "Yeah, you're right," Fluttershy nodded. "Don't worry, we'll show them, even if it means losing to Black Sabbath," Rainbow said. "Good luck, girls. I'm afraid you're going to need it," Tony said. "Good luck to you too," Sunset replied. "We really need to rent a place," Bill laughed. "I wonder if they take Pounds in this dimension?" Ozzy joked. "I dunno. That would be funny," Terrence replied. "Worth a shot, I suppose," Tony shrugged. They continued walking until they found an apartment building. "Hey, you guys have a place available?", Bill asked. "Just one. It'll be 100 bits a month," a stallion at the counter answered. "What the clusterfucking hell is a Bit?" Ozzy asked. "Equestrian currency," the clerk replied. "Do you take Pounds? I have £300 with me right now," Bill asked. "What are pounds?" the clerk wondered. "English currency," Terrence answered. "Well, money's money, right?" the clerk laughed. "Yeah," Tony agreed. "Alright, top floor, first door on the left," the clerk said, taking £100 from Bill. The following day, Black Sabbath ended up meeting The Dazzlings in the streets. "Competition's tonight at 20:30. Be there or be square," Sonata said. "We'll be there. Count on it," Ozzy laughed. The three girls rolled their eyes and walked away. "That was odd," Terrence shrugged. "Odd is an understatement," Tony laughed. The time for the challenge was approaching. The Rainbooms and Black Sabbath were talking about how stupid this rematch idea was, and how there was no chance for The Dazzlings to win. "They're fucked. There is no way in hell," Ozzy laughed. "Well, they might get second, but I highly doubt that they'll beat us," Bill laughed. "Well, from the looks of things, Ozzy seems hellbent on proving his point," Applejack said. "Yeah, that sounds about right," Rainbow nodded. "Time to take the stage," Twilight said, pointing in its direction. The Dazzlings stood on stage, a few curious students had congregated in front of it. "Thanks for coming! Tonight, the Rainbooms and The Dazzlings are gonna have ourselves a little bit of a rematch," Adagio said. "But that's not the only band we'll be going up against. Tonight, it's Triple Threat. Every band for themselves. Black Sabbath will be participating as well," Sonata added. "I just came for the hell of it," Aria shrugged, causing a couple laughs in the crowd. "Seriously, Aria?" Adagio sighed. "What? It's true," Aria retorted. "Anyway, let's get started! Each band will only perform one song. No more, no less, no exceptions," Adagio explained. "We're gonna do our song, Under Our Spell. Don't worry, it shouldn't hypnotize you this time," Sonata laughed. The girls began: After their song was done, and the crowd of students,which had grown exponentially, calmed down, Adagio took the mic. "Thank you! Up next is The Rainbooms!" she said, and The Dazzlings exited. Next, the Rainbooms took the stage. "Hey, everyone. Thanks for wasting a little bit of your lives just to hear us play. It means a lot! Tonight, for our one-shot performance, we'll be doing our song called Perfect Day For Fun!" Rainbow explained. Black Sabbath, The Dazzlings, and Sunset Shimmer hung out backstage. "Still think you can beat us?" Aria asked. "Nope. I know we can," Bill laughed. "What do you think, Sunset?" Adagio asked. 'I'll tell you what Ozzy told me. You guys are toast. There's now way in Equestria that you're gonna win," Sunset laughed, censoring Ozzy's quote. "I guess we'll see," Sonata sneered. The Rainbooms began their performance: There was applause from the crowd. They were slightly louder than when they were cheering for The Dazzlings. "That puts us ahead, but only slightly," Twilight said. "Black Sabbath is gonna destroy us," Rainbow sighed. They exited the stage. "Ozzy, your band's up!" Sunset said. "Alright, thanks. Hey, Adagio, eat your heart out," he teased. "Oh, just go out there!" Adagio scoffed. Black Sabbath entered the stage area. "Good evening! I hope everyone is doing well tonight. For our performance this evening, we're gonna do a song called Hole in the Sky!" Ozzy explained. The crowd was confused, but were curious. Tony, Terrence, and Bill began their instrumental onslaught, followed by Ozzy's vocals. The guys sounded like this: The crowd exploded with applause. It was way louder than even Ozzy expected. "Bloody hell, it sounds like the FIFA World Cup out here!" he joked. "Well, I think it's safe to say who won," Bill laughed. The other two bands joined them on stage. "Alright, now we're gonna have a vote. There's about 40 of you out there, so we'll send a clipboard and you'll draw a tally next to the band that did the best by your standards alone. Don't let your friends persuade you into choosing a different band," Adagio instructed. "Results are in!" Sonata was jumpy. "In third place with 10 votes, is... The Dazzlings," Adagio sighed. "In second place with 12 votes, The Rainbooms!" Aria revealed. "And in first place with 18 votes, Black Sabbath!" Sonata said through clinched teeth. "Well, that was fun. Now what?" Sunset asked. "Let's all just go home," Rainbow shrugged. "Alright," Ozzy said. The fourteen people from three different bands each went back to their respective homesteads. END OF CHAPTER 3!
Aston, Sweet AstonAuthor's Note Here's the final chapter. Hope you enjoyed. Aston, Sweet Aston The next day, the four men awoke to the sound of thunder. "Well, damn. Looks like rain," Terrence sighed. "Do you hear the thunder raging in the sky?" Ozzy sang. The others laughed. "Ozzy, you're still a trip after all these years," Bill chuckled. "It's who I am, Bill," Ozzy replied. "Ain't that the truth?" Terrence said. "What kind of shenanigans are we going to get ourselves into today?" Ozzy asked. "Not sure. Hopefully none, but in this dimension, there's no telling. We've done everything from falling out of the sky to winning a band contest," Tony shrugged. "I have an idea. It might work, and I think it could help us get back to England. We've been missing for three days, and the world probably thinks we're all dead," Bill said. "What is it?" Tony asked. "Yes, what?" Terrence added. "Well, wasn't it a lightning bolt that got us here?" Bill asked, looking out the window as a crack of thunder went off outside. "Are you fucking mad?" Ozzy asked, catching on to what Bill was thinking. "Maybe a little. It's worth a shot," Bill shrugged. "I guess you're right," Terrence said. "You know, I think Bill is onto something here, mates!" Tony was thinking of ways to improve Bill's idea. "Don't tell me you're having ideas too," Terrence laughed. "I am. Remember the swirling cloud? It was like a whirlpool in the sky," Tony asked. "Yes. It's what got us here. Are you suggesting we go in the rain just to find a spinning cloud to zap us back home?" Terrence asked. "I've done crazier shit in my day. I bit a bat's head off, I snorted fire ants, I also bit a dove's head off, I did drugs of all kinds, how in the fuck am I still alive?" Ozzy rambled. "I don't know, but we're glad to have you back," Tony retorted. "Glad to be back. 36 years. That was the timespan between Never Say Die and 13. Long motherfucking time, I might add," Ozzy chuckled. "I still can't believe Ronnie died 4 years ago," Tony added. "That was a sad loss for the Sabbath family," Terrence nodded. "Let's try the lightning thing," Bill cut in, so the reminiscences would stop. "Alright," Ozzy said, and the men followed Bill outside. It was pouring rain when they got outside. "I HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE DOING!" Ozzy shouted over the wind. "WOULD YOU BE SURPRISED IF I SAID NO?" Bill replied. "NOT REALLY!" Ozzy shrugged. "THERE'S NO SIGN OF ANY SWIRLING CLOUDS!" Terrence sighed. "IT'S LIKE HURRICANE FORCE WINDS OUT HERE!" Tony laughed. "WAIT! I THINK I SEE ONE!" Bill shouted, pointing to the sky. "I SEE IT TOO, NOW WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR LIGHTNING!" Terrence shouted. BOOM!, a bolt of lightning came down just in front of the four men. The blast knocked them down, and out. Tony wakes up first. "Oi, I remember it feeling less painful the first time," he muttered to himself. Terrence and Bill both sat up simultaneously. "Well, that was fun," Bill laughed. "You're a bloody nutcase, mate," Terrence grinned. "Someone wake up Ozzy," Tony said. "Alright," Bill replied, and he slapped the shit out of him. "I'M UP!" Ozzy shouted. "Sorry. Well, it's good to be back home," Bill shrugged. "Aston, sweet Aston," Terrence said. "I wonder how Sharon's gonna react when she sees you alive after being missing for three days?" Tony joked. "She'll probably kick his ass, and ask him where he's been," Bill said. "Wouldn't surprise me," Tony laughed. "I'll deal with it when the time comes," Ozzy replied. "Well, gentlemen, it's been a hell of a journey, but I'm ready to go home. I'll be seeing you all around," Tony said. "Where are you going?" Bill asked. "To get my guitar, if no one's stolen it," Tony answered. "Shit, that reminds me. I'll tag along. Hopefully, my bass is still there," Terrence frantically jogged to catch up to Tony. "I still have to pack up my drumset," Bill remembered, and he went back to catch up with Tony and Terrence. "GOOD LUCK, MATES! I'M GOING TO SEE IF I CAN GET A FLIGHT BACK TO LOS ANGELES!" Ozzy called, waving goodbye to his friends. "WE'LL SEE YOU AROUND, OZZY!" the others called back. The three men who went back to the stage found their instruments surprisingly untouched, and unscathed. "Well, now the world knows we're alive. There's no way what just happened was unnoticed," Bill laughed. "Glad your idea worked, Bill. Some brain cells are still alive in there after all," Terrence joked. "Oh, bollocks. You smoked about as many joints as Ozzy did back in the day. You used to be baked like cake," Bill retorted. "Wake and bake," Tony chuckled. "Glad we don't do that anymore," Bill said. "Us too," Terrence and Tony replied. Ozzy had finally gotten a flight back to Beverly Hills. He was ready to see Sharon. When he got home, unlocked the door and walked inside, Sharon was making breakfast. "SHARON! I'm home!" Ozzy called. "OZZY?! Where have you been? Everyone thought you had died," Sharon playfully slapped him and gave him a hug. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you," Ozzy laughed. "Try me," Sharon retorted. "When the lightning bolt struck the stage, it teleported me and the band into this strange world with multi-colored people. There were green people, purple people, talking fucking dogs, it was a damned mess. We got struck by another lightning bolt today, which is how we got home," Ozzy explained. "That does sound unbelievable," Sharon chuckled. "I've been sober for thirteen years, so it wasn't drugs," Ozzy promised. "I've heard crazier things," Sharon hugged Ozzy again, happy to see he was still in one crazy, 65-year-old, piece. THE END!
