Date: August 4, 2013
Location: Canterlot Castle

The Grand Galloping Gala is today and everypony can't wait. It's going to be The Best Night Ever. One pony can't wait to perform, Soundcheck.
He's a unicorn that's going to perform a rock 'n' roll concert at The Grand Galloping Gala. Soundcheck loves rock 'n' roll, It's his life. He also loves his electric guitar He knew he needed to be perfect for this performance since this is his first live performance. If he did good, he knew this would make him reach the top. He would be all over the news.

"This is going to be great. I can do this." Soundcheck said to himself in the mirror.

Before he knew it night came, he was scared, but he wasn't going to chicken out. This was his time. Well, he was right that it was his time. He plugged in his electric guitar and began to play, dance and sing. Soundcheck played and played and played. Everypony loved his music. However, he decided to take a break before he played his last song. He should have just played it and he would have reached the top. A few minutes later after his break, he was about to play his last song. Everything was going fine. The ponies were cheering for him. He was looking at the crowd not paying attention what was on the stage. Lost in his own fame. He was dancing until....

*Zap!!!*

"AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Soundcheck shouted in pain

Soundcheck was getting electrocuted by the wire connected to his electric guitar. A unicorn helped him out and pulled the cord with his magic. Soundcheck fell to the ground. It was too late. Soundcheck...was cooked. Still, how did this happen? It's pretty simple. There was wine at this Grand Galloping Gala, and one tipsy pony decided to leave his wine near the cord of Soundcheck's guitar during his break. Not to mention Soundcheck's cord had an exposed part. When Soundcheck was too busy dancing enjoying his fame, he knocked down the glass of wine making it fall on the exposed part of the cord. Making the electricity transporting to his guitar and shock him. The shock cooked him from the inside. Cooking his lungs, liver and finally. Stopping his heart.

Soundcheck wanted to make it to the top. He wanted to be all over the news...Well, he was all over the news alright. Breaking News, death at the Gala. It wasn't Soundcheck's Best Night Ever. It was his...Last Night Ever.
