Attention!
this fan fiction isn't going to be will-written. I hoped to do my best to keep this in mind. Hope you enjoy. I also would not make a crossover with other shows and all, but with music that I enjoyed listening. And I would put videos are music related. That's it!

Hearing Her First Music

Author's Note

This is my fan story about Princess Luna and my own made up OC(Original Character). And I'm trying to do the best I can to make this story well written fanfic. I thought of this story myself, and I want to make the story the way I want to wrote it for entertainment. And I try not to bother with musician's or artist's property or songs while I try to make a good sense and all.

And also I think of ponies meets Metalcore music and would form their own band. This is my best I could make you understand of making a story for entertainment.

Hope you enjoy!

Hearing Her First Music

At Canterlot, it was a beautiful day to go out and run some humans and ponies errands and other activities for fun and work. Humans and Ponies started to get along since the portal of both worlds opens and now both worlds makes peace for a new era of both races come together. Humans and Ponies started to share their pop culture with other things and stuff they enjoyed and doing.

At the Princess Luna's Quarters, she became bored and all, as she tries to find something fun instead that she knew she been playing a bit of video games and enjoyed listening to gaming soundtrack.

"Ugh! There's nothing to do. I can't figure out what am I suppose to do after all the work I've done with Tia!" She complained frustratedly. Her royal guard, Nocturnal Raiser, was thinking of something to make Luna to enjoy. He's big into heavier metal music called Metalcore, and had enjoyed listening to bands like Miss May I, Blessthefall, and Memphis May Fire.

As he walked in Princess Luna's quarters, Nocturnal then got Luna's attention, "Your highness." Princess then nodded, "Yes, Nocturnal?" Nocturnal asked, "If you're bored, or some sort, would you like me to share some of my music with you if you want?" Luna shook her head as an 'yes', and Nocturnal pulls out his iPod, gives Luna the ear buds as she puts them on, and selects Miss May I and plays the song, I.H.E.

Luna then listens to the song.

After the song's finished. Luna then looks at him with a smile.

"So, what do you think, Princess?" Nocturnal asked her. She then responded with excitement, "I loved it!! Now that's something that got me on my hooves with this jam of yours!"

Nocturnal then asked her, "You want to hear some more?"

Luna nods, "Yes. But I want to hear more than just a song. I want to hear a full album."

Nocturnal then nods his head, turns to his iPod, and selects Blessthefall's album, Hollow Bodies, grosses out Luna, but she wants to hear more music he heard. He then selects the song Exodus, and he lets it play the full album.

After nearly an hour listening to Blessthefall's album, Hollow Bodies, Princess Luna seems to think that she really got into this stuff.

"Nocturnal! Tis a great sounding of the music! What thou's name of the music. Not the band names but the music itself?!" Luna exclaims to Nocturnal with the curious, yet excitement she never heard the type of music in her immortality.

Nocturnal Raiser then nodded, "This music you listened with me is Heavy metal. But this genre, as sub-genre of course; is called Metalcore." Princess of the night then understood what he was talking about.

"Metalcore, huh?! Thine's a great sound of music!" Luna nodded, open her wings with joy and excitement, found a type of music that would get her into. Nocturnal asked her, "You want to hear three more songs from another band?" Luna responded, "Sure! I would be gladly to hear more!"

Nocturnal choose Memphis May Fire and choose three songs; The Sinner, Prove Me Wrong, and . And Luna listens.

As they finished listening to Memphis May Fire's songs, Luna then estatically stated, "Tis a great sound of so called Metalcore! I really like the music itself, that we didn't got into!"

Nocturnal then nods, "That's good to hear. I was hoping if I'm not bothering about this and all."

"Oh no no no! Thine's never a bother. Thank you!" The Night Princess smiles, enjoying his musical tastes. Nocturnal then realizes that she would also would like one of the songs that are his favorite; Because Of You, by Betraying The Martyrs.

"Hey, your highness!" He said to her, getting her attention. Luna asks, "What seems to be wrong, peasant?"

Nocturnal then nods, "I also wanted you to hear something else that I thought you'll like. Another band that is, with different musical atmosphere." Luna then trots up to him and acknowledges, "Well, thine's must hear!"

She then puts the head phones back on, eagerly wanting to hear another music Nocturnal wants to share with her.

Nocturnal plays the song.

As the song finishes, Luna's mind was blown away with the sound of the it. She then sighed, "Wow! Tis a good one!"

Nocturnal chuckles with small laughter. "I'm glad you liked it, your highness."

Luna then asks, "It's not like any Metalcore music, like it's called Deathcore, right?"

Nocturnal explains to her that Betraying The Martyrs are Deathcore and Metalcore with elements of Progressive Metal and Symphonic Metal.

"Metalcore subgenres can be called Melodic Metalcore. But fans called it Symphonic Metalcore, Industrial Metalcore, or Alternative Metalcore." He said to her, as Luna was wide eyed, surprised that there could be more Metalcore subgenres out there.

Luna then sighs, "Whoa! Thine's a lot of the metalcore genres out there!"

"No kidding!" Said Nocturnal.

As Nocturnal Raiser and Luna were still talking about music, Nocturnal thought, 'What if we form a Metalcore band. Hopefully Princess Luna'll enjoy making music for entertainment!'

Nocturnal then said to her, "I was thinking, your highness!" As curious Princess of the Night wanted to know, as she nods, "Go ahead, we're listening."

Nocturnal then stated, "What if WE, form a Metalcore band? Think's a good idea?"

Luna then found it interesting, thinking of rocking out with other musicians, meeting every fans, and have a sort of 'fun' with music.

Luna then stated, "We thou love to do this! Let's make some noise to our nation!" Nocturnal smiles, glad to help her to find entertainment and making music in the same time. But they first music find more ponies to join in the band, and hopefully go national or regional with Metalcore music that they'd blow everypony and creatures minds away.

Forming a Band

Author's Note

Hope you guys enjoy this story and all. But the song I'm using for Nocturnal's group is just for cover and all. And the song's not from me, but from the respectful band I liked.

Enjoy!

Also if you want, I would liked if anyone of you guys could think of music tracklist, a concert name, and of course whoever bands you want me to put in with Nocturnal's band.

Forming a Band

As Luna and Nocturnal Raiser thought of forming a band, Nocturnal meets up with recruiting band members; Vinyl Scratch, Cloudchaser and Flitter, and Octavia Melody. They had a meeting at Nocturnal's favorite restaurant, talking about forming a Metalcore band, and asks them if they want to join.

Cloudchaser then stated, "I listen to dubstep, rock music, and came across with Heavy Metal, which me and my sister, Flitters, got into it. So yeah, we'd like to be apart of your band." Flitter nods her head as an 'yes.'

Vinyl then smiles, " Heck! I do Dubstep as a DJ. As I and Neon; the other DJ and friend of mine, went to a store, we came across a Metalcore band called Asking Alexandria. And Dude, it's like my jam I'm talking about, I definitely got into that stuff with Neon! So you know what, since Princess Luna and you are forming a Metalcore band, I'm in!"

Octavia then smiled a bit but then stated, "I heard about that music, and I must say; with all do respect, when I first heard that music, it scares me. And in same time, I'd enjoyed it, because of the lyrics talk about personal issues, love, and other sort of themes."

Then she asked, "About, so called 'Metalcore,' does it have its own subgenres?"

Luna then stated, "It can be mixed in with elements of Symphonic Metal, Industrial Metal, Alternative Metal, and various other metal genres. Like the other Metalcore genre can be called 'Melodic Metalcore', which can be described with Symphonic Metalcore, Industrial Metalcore, and/or Progressive Metalcore."

Octavia then smiles, "I liked it! It's very interesting to make up with those genres with a musical tastes."

"Indeed." Luna mutters, nodding her head.

Octavia then stated, "Well, if you are doing any of these genres in a Metalcore band, I'm definitely in!"

Nocturnal then acknowledges, "Well, that's settles it, we got our members in the band. Now we need to make the line-up for our band."

"That's right!" Princess Luna said, as they made their order for lunch, and heads back to Nocturnal Raiser's house and to get started with their band.

As they left after eating lunch, Nocturnal and the mares walks down into the basement, and saw Nocturnal had collected three bass guitars, three electric guitars, two rhythm guitars, a master sized keyboards, and two different types of drumsets.

The group were amazed and cooed, "Woow!"

"That's so cool, Nocturnal!" Cloudchaser states, as Nocturnal nods, "Thank you. I've been at those concerts at Earth and collected those, from the band members that used to have them, and I became lucky that they ended up nicely let me keep them!"

The mares looks at him and asks, "Really?" As Nocturnal nods his head 'yes', Vinyl smiles, "You must've been very lucky to have those instruments! That made me a bit jealous."

Nocturnal laughes and then stated, "Okay! Anyways, we must make a line up for the band members." Nocturnal got started and looks at Vinyl and said, "Vinyl! You'll be our keyboardist and programmer!"

"Aww yeah!" Vinyl nods with her pumping her hoove in the air. And Nocturnal states to her, "Because, Vinyl. I know you're an awesome DJ. So I choose that you're a perfect fit for doing Programming and Keyboards! Can you handle it?"

"Buck yeah, Raiser! You can count on me!" She stated for approval.

And Nocturnal turns to Octavia and then states, "Miss Octavia! You'll be the Bassist, and for a little part, be our backing clean and melodic vocalist."

Octavia then smiles, "That'll work!"

Nocturnal turn to Flitter and Cloudchaser and then said, "Flitter, you'll be our drummer! While your sister's our rythem guitarist!"

The sisters looks and happily high hooves each other, saying, "Oh yeah!" Cloudchaser stated to Flitter, "You're going to make yourself a great drummer, sis!"

"Oh, thank you, Clouds! You're going to make a awesome an rythem guitarist in the band!" Flitter responded, as Cloudchaser smiles for her compliment.

Nocturnal then turns to Luna and said, "And for you, Princess. You're going to be a lead guitarist and clean vocalist of the band!" Luna nods, "Sounds good enough."

Nocturnal then said to her, "Cause your voice I heard before, like Octavia, you two mares are better off at doing melodies and clean vocals, if you like."

Luna then states with Octavia in approval, "Fine by us! We'll accept that." Nocturnal smiles, feeling that they're better off on doing clean and melodic vocalists more than other types of death growls or screaming vocals.

Nocturnal then finishes, "And as for me, I'll be the unclean and growling vocalists!"

So then, they got the line up finished, and that leads up to a near completion of the band. Which the only thing's missing, is a band name, which they're trying to come up with a good or great name of their band.

"So, what should we name our band?" Flitter asks Nocturnal, as he thinks hard and deep. He then said, "I'll think about it later. First, let's see how good we can sound, by playing some songs we can cover!"

Luna then nods, "Let's cover one of your songs from your iPod, Nocturnal!" Nocturnal then nods as he looks through his iTouch, "Good idea, Princess! Let me find a good one!"

Nocturnal then looks through his playlist of songs, and found a band on his artist list called Caliban, and select the song 'We Are The Many.' Nocturnal then turns to Luna and nods with this song. And Luna nods in approval.

"Alright, girls!" Princess Luna stated, preparing to play along with the song. "Let's rock n' roll!"

And they began to play with Nocturnal's song from his iPod

As they finished, they were covered in sweat, and breath heavily. Nocturnal turns back to his band members, as they got a smile onto their faces.

"That...Was...BRUTAL!!!" Cloudchaser stated, with an enjoyment. Nocturnal smiles to her and said, "You played awesome rhythm guitar, Clouds! And yes indeed Brutal!"

Nocturnal then turns to his whole group and stated, "We played a hay of a jam! You guys played outstandingly very well!"

"You were awesome too, Nocturnal!" Flitters stated, "I or neither of us never know you can growl or scream like that!"

Nocturnal then nods, "It's a long story."

Nocturnal then nods with a question, "What should be our band name?"

"Like what should be represented in what why?" Octavia asks Nocturnal, with a thought of the band should have a meaning.

Nocturnal then stated, "The band that could help everypony from their problems and have to deal with negativity."

Everypony thinks hard and tries to come up with a great band name. They think and think, until Flitter then stated, "What about Helping Hooves?"
Nocturnal then nods, "Nice. But not good enough of the band name. Needs to be awesome and a great band name."

As they think harder, the Night Princess then stated, "What about 'Conditional Logic'?"

Nocturnal then looks at her, thinking that's the good name for the band. He then announced, "Well, that's settles it, we got ourselves a band name: Conditional Logic!"

Everypony smiles and looks at eachother, nodding their heads.

"Sounds good to me!" Cloudchaser stated. And Vinyl nods with a smile, "Surely is a awesome name for the band!"

"Splendid name indeed!" Octavia acknowledged.

As they finished made complements for the band name, they then nods with questions, which Flitter asks, "Now what're we going to do next?"

Nocturnal acknowledged, "Well, we got to be known from everypony, and we got to make a concert for us and any other bands that should play together."

"Yeah!" Everypony shouts out, as they got fired up for concerts they'll play with other bands and make their debut as an new type of metal band that would be a first Equestrian Metalcore band.

Luna then asks, "But you think we should record an album first as well after we're known?"

Nocturnal nods his head in approval, thinking of making an album that would blow everypony away. He also knew that it was a beginning of Conditional Logic.
