Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Once you were heading to the place called Comfy Hoof, the Hotel Manager looked at all of you with a snobbish expression. "And what may I do for you lowlifes?" He ask, not taking his eyes off the newspaper he was reading.

Shining slams his hand to get his attention. "HEY! What do yo-" He cuts himself off before bowing his head to Shining Armor and Princess Cadence. "I am truly sorry, your highness'. I wasn't expecting you to be at my Hotel."

"We're here for a room for all of us to stay in for one night," Shining said, gesturing at you and your friends.

The Hotel Manager looks speechless, but spoke. "May I ask, who you are?"

It was Princess Cadence's turn to step in. "We are the Heroes and we are a rock band that are gonna save the world."

He gave them a blank stare before laughing. "HA HA HA HA HA! You are very funny. You all claim to be a rock band that are gonna save the world? That's funny!"

He continues laughing until he spots Octavia who looks at him back with a stern look. "Now see here, sir, we are the Winged Hussars and we are gonna save Equestria from King Sombra and we would like to spend the night here at the Comfy Hoof now!"

The Hotel Manager broke into a joyous scream like a fangirl and got over the desk to get a better look at her who backs away a bit from him. "Oh, I can't believe that you showed up at my Hotel. I'm such a big fan."

You just stared at him while Vinyl's jaws drop. "You got a fan Octavia," She said, elbowing her.

Octavia only looks stun. "I can see that."

"Can I have your autograph, Octavia, Please?" He ask, taking his autograph book from under his stack of papers.

Octavia took out a pen and before she does, she spoke. "Only if you let us stay at the Comfy Hoof."

The Hotel Manager nods as she signs her autograph to him. He took you guys to the elevator, but since it was not meant to carry more then seven ponies, you all had to take turns by going three by three.

After that, he gave Princess Cadence the key to your Hotel room. She opens it and to our amazement, it was the most biggest Hotel room ever. It was big enough for all of you to fit in.

You went inside and look around for a bit. You look out the window and You can see the beautiful City night here...well, almost since only half of the City was being in King Sombra's spell.

"Dude, this place is awesome!" Vinyl said, still looking at this place.

"Not bad for a cheap Hotel," Adagio comment.

You all then notice that this room here has six beds and a nice indoor swimming pool on the other side of the room. This place was heaven to all of you.


You gathered around by the table to come up with the playlist on the paper for the concert tomorrow. You were the only one who had to think up of good songs to choose, but...you was in a tight pickle as Sonata wanted you to write a song about tacos.

"Sonata, that's stupid," Aria said, shaking her head.

"No, you are and you smell stupid," Sonata retort, only to make Aria's left eye twitch.

"THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY FUCKING SENSE!" Damn, Aria's a loud mouth.

Adagio groans and turns to Octavia. "It's best not to let these two go to your head for too long."

"I will keep that in mind," Octavia said.

Screwball made a airhorn appear, but instead of making loud noise it made a cartoony car horn noise.

This got Sonata and Aria to stop fighting as you look at Screwball who is dress in a light blue dress with tiny white spots and an apron which has an upside down smily face on it.

She also produced a bat with nails on it. "If you kids don't behave, am gonna knock you out of the field," Everypony gave her a strange look, but not you as you took the bat with nails away.

"Screwball, I'm pretty sure mothers don't threaten their kids with a baseball bat covered in nails. Especially the ones with nails on them," you say, trying not to sound paranoid.

Screwball sat down, only to take her left eye out and pointed at Aria and Sonata. "I'm still watching you two," She said with a hiss.

You look at the playlist on the paper you put down. "Here guys, tell me if this alright," you handed it to them and they crowded together to see your choices of songs.

They seem impressed with it and they all gave you a thumbs up. "I take it you like it, right?"

"I may not be a metal fan but I will give it a chance," Octavia said with poise.

"Dude, I love it!" Vinyl shouted with a grin.

"You sure got a great and powerful taste in music, Soundcheck," Trixie said, flipping her long mane.

"That is the best idea ever," Lyra said.

"Thanks for putting my song here," Princess Cadence said. "It really looks great."

"Yeah, I really like this too," Adagio said.

"Not bad for a pony with a weird culture of humans," Aria said. You don't know if she was joking or just being Aria.

"Adagio, he put our song here. It looks so cool," Sonata said, showing the playlist to Adagio before shoveling it away.

"Yes, yes, I saw it."

Big Macintosh nods in approval. "Ya sure know how to please 'em."

Shining just nods in acceptance.

"Thanks, now then, let's all get something to eat. Then, let's find someplace to practice okay?" you all got up from the table and left the room to go to a nice fancy Buffet they have.

Screwball taps on my arm and you look at her. "You know, I think this is gonna work," She said, confidently.

"I think so too, Screwball. I think so too."


The next day was the day. The day you and your friends get to perform in your first concert here at Baltimare and this is gonna be fucking awesome. You were in the green room, getting ready to perform when a knock was heard.

The door opens and Screwball arrives. "Where were you?" Lyra ask her.

Screwball smirks. "Oh, I just need to keep myself entertain for a bit."

"Let me guess, you turn the water fountain into a soda fountain?" you ask, putting your hands on your hips. Screwball nods and a door opens again and the Mayor's head pops up.

"Okay, Winged Hussars, you're on an three minutes," He said, before pulling his head back and closing the door.

You all place your instruments down and got into a huddle.

"Okay, guys, this is it. We are gonna perform and break King Sombra's spell. So don't be nervous when we have a large crowd," you say, in a more serious tone.

"I've been on stage before and I have no problem with the crowd," Trixie scoffs.

"My Wife and I will do our best," Shining said, looking softly at Princess Cadence.

"We are the new Rulers of the Crystal Empire you know?" She said, looking back at her Husband.

"If Bonbon was here in the audience, she would defiantly cheer for me," Lyra said, thinking about her friend back at Ponyville.

"Ma family is countin' on me and ah ain't gonna let them down," Big Macintosh said, with a look of determination.

"This is gonna be sweet!" Vinyl shouted into Octavia's ear.

Octavia sighs. "I suppose so, but I don't think I'll get use to the music, even if I must accept it."

"Quit your bitchin' besides, it's not like this gonna take a whole moon," Aria said, rolling her eyes.

"She's right. We need to go out there and give it our all," Adagio said, glancing at Octavia.

"Let's do it," Screwball said, sticking her hand out.

You all put our hands on top of hers and raise them in the air and shouted 'Winged Hussars Go!'

"Now let's go perform and eat tacos," Sonata said, causing you all to glance at her in confusion.

Adagio groans. "Sonata, just shut it."

"Okay," Sonata said, turning red.

Screwball turn into a pink cloud and got inside Screwball 2 as you picked up. "Let's just go and perform," you said as you head out the door and headed to the stage.


The crowd was silent as if they have no idea why their Mayor wanted them to come here in the first place. Some of them seem interested on what's going on while some just want to get this over with so they can have other things to do.

The Mayor arrives center stage and everypony cheers for him. ( At least half of them did ). He grabs the mic and taps it a few times before speaking.

"Hello, Citizens of Baltimare and welcome to the first ever ROCK CONCERT IN BALTIMORE'S HORSESHOE ARENA!!!" Half the crowd cheers while the other half remains silent.

"Now it is my great honor to introduce to you a rock band who will be making their debut here in this stadium. So please give a warm welcome to THE WINGED HUSSARS!!!" The Mayor motions to the crowd to look at our band's logo as it unravels itself.

The crowd looks at it an awe even the ones who were under King Sombra's spell, before the lights go out and an unexpected dark menacing tune was heard.

They turn their attention to the stage as the stage lights keeps flashing on and off at your shadows. They can tell that you all were three stallions and eights mares on the stage with the Orchestra in the background that the Mayor has hired.

The music got higher and higher by the second until it got lower again. The crowd looks a bit nervous, but they know that it was nothing to be scared about as the music fades away. The lights went black before a weird voice was heard and the lights went on one by one on each of us with purple shades as you play Screwball 2 and your friends join in.

When the song ends, half of the ponies were cheering and it seems that the ones that were being under control of King Sombra seems to be fading a bit. You turn to your friends. "Let's try out the next song."

And you did as the lights went out again, only for it to flash repeatedly into the sound of the drumming and the sound of you guitar playing. The lights went on into a orange and green shading and shines in on you all playing. Your horn glows again as you started singing.

The song ends and the cheer was getting louder due to King Sombra's spell getting weaker by the minute. You turn to Big Macintosh who gives you a 'Let's do it' look before the lights changes to orange, pink and blue shading.

You and Big Macintosh played your instruments in unison for a few minutes before you sang, making everyone cheer wildly.

The lights came back on after it died down as you all took a breather for a few seconds and the crowd was cheering even more. Then, the lights turn orange, red and yellow shading ( much to Adagio's satisfaction ) as you strum Screwball 2 while the others were waiting for you signal.

When the song was over, the crowd was cheering for more and more. So you did. You gave Screwball 2 to the stagehand and told him to make sure not to scratch it.

You went back to the stage and grab your mic. "Hey, folks, how are you all doing?" They respond with a cheer and that makes you happy. "That's good to hear, because it's time for everypony to get up and start dancing to this song."

Your horn glows and you use your transformation spell to turn yourself into a man in a baby blue tuxedo and point to Vinyl to play the music.

She pressed the play button on her wub machine and the lights change to white and sky blue shading and the music was heard for everypony to hear.

The crowd cheers after their dance and the song ( even though they can't understand it ) as King Sombra's spell was getting weaker.

You look over to Adagio, Aria and Sonata and tell them to come up center stage. You gave Adagio the mic and the other two already has theirs.

You move about eight steps away from them and grab your guitar from the stagehand and the lights went into orange, purple and blue shading as the music plays and the Dazzlings started to sing.

After Adagio's laugh, everything went silence for a good ten seconds and the crowd was cheering for them.

The Dazzlings were smiling in a not so evil way, but a smiled happily way. You notice that Adagio was trying not to cry. "They like us. They really like us."

Sonata put a comfort hand on her back as they head back to their position next to Trixie at the bass. You went center stage and nod to Vinyl to play the next music. The lights are now in a white and light purple shading before the music plays. Everypony was getting into the groove here as you sang this song.

The music fades and cheering was heard. You look and you see that a quarter of those ponies are still under King Sombra's spell. You grab your mic and spoke.

"Okay, everypony, this next one goes to Princess Cadence, so please give her a big cheer," Princess Cadence walks on stage and you gave her the mic.

You move out of the way so she can take center stage. The crowd cheers for her as she waves them a hello and clears her throat. The lights became pink, yellow and lavender like the colors of her mane and the music was playing. The music was getting louder and you use your transformation spell to turn into her ( much to Shining's annoyance ) as Princess Cadence and you started singing.

The song ends and the crowd was rooting and hollering for Princess Cadence. She blushed a bit and walks back to her spot. You did a good job changing your voice to sound like her when you shapeshift. You change back to your 'original form' and wave at them, which they cheered more. You turn to look at Shining who was giving you the 'Never do that again' look at you.

You gulped a bit and regain your composure as you went to the center of the stage again and use your transformation spell to turn into Discord. This made the crowd gasp and before they can boo at you, the music was playing and the lights go into a grey and black shading. you grab Screwball 2 to play it and let out a laugh just like Discord's as the music becomes tense and loud.

You change back to your unicorn stallion form and the crowd was cheering. You grab your mic and began to speak. "Okay, now it's time for another song from one of my bandmates. So please, give it up for THE GREAT AND POWERFUL TRIXIE!"

You backed away as a puff of smoke appears and Trixie pops out of it, wearing her magician outfit she wore when you first met her in person.

There was ooh's and aah's from the crowd and Trixie grabs your mic and begins to speak into it. "Do you wanna hear Trixie sing?" The crowd all shouted yes. "Then, lend Trixie your ears 'cause she is gonna sing right now."

The lights turn into a light blue and white shading as Trixie sings.

The fireworks shot out and the crowd loves it. Trixie took a bow and heads back to her position to get her bass.

The lights went out and the crowd was about to panic when they hear a mechanical whirling sound from the stage.

The lights went back on and the crowd was shock to see a thirty foot tall version of the Classic Megazord from The Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.

The crowd looks at it in aw as it waves hello to them. Then, the Megazord begins to shrink and transform into none other then...you.

Yep, you use your transformation spell to turn into that giant robot. you grab your mic and spoke. "Did you like that?" you ask, only to get a cheer from them. "Good, because if you think that's cool, wait until you get a load of this."

You pulled out Screwball 2 and the lights have become red, blue, yellow, pink, black and white as you strum your guitar a minute before your friends joins in.

The crowd cheers as the song ends. Then, the lights go to a brown and lavender shading and as the music plays, you use your magic to make your voice sound like a robot.

When the music ends you can see that at least twenty ponies in the crowd was still being controlled by King Sombra's spell. But it looks like the ponies are loving the music more and more.

The crowd cheers louder as the lights go into a dark green, orange and apricot shade. Octavia plays her cello in a harmonic way and the Orchestra returns to join in while Princess Cadence walks up to you and the Dazzlings are behind us.

After she finish her cello solo, you riffed Screwball 2 before you sang.

The crowd went wild as we took a bow. You look and saw a mix of red and black smoke coming out of half of the ponies head and dissipates.

Lucky for you, none of them notice this because they were to busy cheering for you, Princess Cadence, the Dazzlings and the others. The Orchestra bows and they leave once again.

Princess Cadence and the Dazzlings were doing great together. Maybe they should hang out. You grab your mic and began to speak. "Are you ready for an encore!?" you shouted with much energy in you.

The crowd started cheering wildly and chanting 'Enore' to us.

So, you all did as the lights are now red and orange shading. You use your Pick of Destiny to start playing Screwball 2 very fast.

The song has finally ended and there was a huge cheer from the crowd. You and your friends took the time to wave at them as fireworks were going on.

The fireworks took the form of our band logo and took the form of you and your friends with smiles on all of your faces.

Not only have you form a band but also made friends here in Equestria.

Everypony started chanting 'Winged Hussars' over and over. 'I love this world,' you thought to yourself with a smile.


Author's Note

Well, that sure took long to make.
