Bringing Anarchy
Instrumental
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAnother day began as I wake up to birds singing songs and animals coming out of their homes within the cottage "I've gotta get used to this" I thought out loud as I sit up and kick my hind legs over the edge of the couch. My head was pounding like I drank a whole bottle of vodka, not like I know how that feels but drinking alcohol is a common activity to avoid radiation poisoning.
I stretch out my forelegs, hearing several cracks from the joints, should've slept on the cot. I stand up and arch my back causing more of my joints to pop in protest, I sigh and sit back down before a set of hooves are heard walking down the stairs so I look over to see Fluttershy brushing her pink mane with a brush held in her wings as she yawns. "Good morning," she greets as she sets down the brush and sits down beside me.
I chuckle before asking "rough night eh?" she nods before letting out another yawn into her hoof.
Fluttershy sighs and says "Can you help me with renovating the shed? Unless you don't want to"
I smile and before answering "I'll help out, maybe we can retrieve some of your friends to help as well?"
Flutters -what an adorable nickname- smiles before saying "Thank you."
I nod and stand up before saying "Let's go" she gets up and we exit out the door toward Twilight's, figuring she needed to get out more. The walk to Ponyville was uneventful and also very quiet, we made it Twilights front door before knocking on it twice before entering. I see Twilight reorganizing the bookshelves with the small purple lizard helping out "Hey Twilight" I said causing her to yelp and spin around
"Oh... H-Hey Anarchy" she says before she sets a book on one of the shelves and walks towards us "What do you need?"
I look to Fluttershy who says "Would you like to come with me and the girls help renovate my shed If that's ok with you"
Twilight gives off a smirk before saying "Sure, Spike can do the rest of the books as I'm gone." I hear a loud groan behind Twilight before we turn and exit the Library. We planned on walking towards Rarity's boutique but halfway there, I was tackled by behind making my instincts kick in and unholster my handgun and press the muzzle of the gun to the forehead of... Rainbow Dash?
Her magenta eyes were pinpricks as the gun was still pressed against her noggin, I holster the weapon and sigh before saying "Maybe you can give me a little bit of a heads up before crashing into me" She nods as she seems to relax a little before I continue "You want to help out with Fluttershy's shed?"
She smiles while hovering up to her before answering "Sure, I'll tag along."
We reached the boutique so Fluttershy knocks on the door "Coming~" A feminine voice announces on the inside before the door swings open to Rarity with some measuring tape around her neck and some fancy glasses placed on her snout. "Oh, hello girls. How can I help you?" Rarity asks
Twilight blurts out "We are going to help Fluttershy with some renovating, care to join?"
Rarity releases a small frown before saying "I wish I could darling but I still need to have more dresses done by tomorrow"
We all nod before I say "Don't worry too much, it's only a shed" Everypony giggles, leaving me confused for a moment.
Rarity cuts the laughter "Alright, I'll most likely see you all tomorrow. Ta-ta~" she shuts the door so we carry on.
"The only available pony left is Applejack since Pinkie is in Canterlot with the Cakes for some contest," Rainbow Dash says so we start walking towards Applejacks house which I have yet to see. The walk was very talkative between Twilight, Rainbow and Flutters as I stayed back a bit but we soon came across an apple orchard with thousands of trees lined up in an orderly fashion but paid more attention to the girl's conversation as they talked about recent events or other things I don't know about.
I see an orange pony in a familiar hat with a bucket of apples sat on her back as she walked to a barn that was a disturbing shade of red "Hey Applejack" I announce causing her to jerk her head towards me with a frightening expression
She exclaims "Holly molly Anarchy, You frightened me"
I chuckle before Fluttershy reluctantly asks "If you're done, maybe you can help us out with renovating my shed if you want to."
Applejack set down the bucket filled to the brim with apples and said "Ah jus' finished mah quota so ah guess ah can tag along"
I nod and shout "let's get a move on." We began walking back to the quiet cottage and the walk was just like the walk here but halfway, Fluttershy stuck behind with me and we talked about my world a bit more.
We entered Fluttershys property and walked around the cottage to see a medium-sized shed that was made out of corroding wood and rusted metal causing me to ask "Guess you haven't used this in a while"
She replied "Never did, the previous owner left the shed untouched and left everything inside for some reason" I nod and walk up to the wood-rotted door, I pull the door but the hinges gave out and began to fall towards me so I quickly step to the side, nearly getting hit.
I peek inside to see six objects covered in dusty, white sheets. I carefully step inside and look around a bit, It was dark but still had some light from the doorway "Is everything alright in there?" I hear Rainbow dash shout
I quickly reply "Yep, could use some light though" I hear some hoofsteps behind me before the room was lit up by a purple light so I look behind me to see Twilight with her horn glowing. I thank her and walk over to one of the sheets before slowly pulling it off in my magical grab.
I smile as I see an acoustic guitar with an electric guitar beside it, both set onto a guitar stand, both were in quite a good shape so I pick both up with my magic and carry them outside with Twilight in tow. "Woah" Rainbow exclaims before she reaches for electric guitar.
I pull it out of her reach before saying "Ah Ah Ah. Finders, keepers" before I place the guitar back on the stand and place it to the side before heading back in with Twilight. I pull of the next sheet to find a Bass guitar also in good condition so I also place it outside and go back inside, the next object turns out to be a Microphone on a stand as well.
I place the Microphone outside and go back in to reveal the biggest item which turns out to be a basic drumkit (Snare, 2 toms, floor tom, bass drum, crash cymbal, ride cymbal, Hi-hat cymbal, 2 drumsticks) which seems to have no problems except for some of the stands having a little bit of rust but can be easily fixed with some aluminum foil and vinegar, I got Applejack and Rainbow Dash to help me move out the drums before I went back inside once more. I pulled off the sheet to the final object which happens to be an amp which also has a little rust on it but other than that, it seems in good condition.
I looked at all the instruments before turning to the shed. I had tools at the disposal but a thought sprang into my mind as if it was a message. It was a spell none the less so I figured I'd try it out "Hey girls, you might want to stand back as I try something" after they got some distance, I lower my head and start thinking of a black hole in the middle of the shed. My mind started to strain as my head ached and began to exhaust but once I heard a massive bang I look up to see the shed collapse on itself and shrink into a red orb.
Once all of the shed was gone, I let my mind ease as the red orb shrunk into nothing. I look behind me to see the girls with their jaws dropped to the floor, Literally. I sigh in exhaustion and sit down to rest, Twilight walked beside me before asking "How did you do that?"
I shrugged and answered, "Just popped into my head."
her eyes widened before shouting "SOMETHING LIKE THAT DOESN'T JUST POP INTO YOUR HEAD!" I chuckle before standing up and walking up to the planks of wood to build the shed.
After some time of building the shed, we finished it. I even built an extra room for the instruments I found so I can actually use them without disturbing the animals or Fluttershy herself, I set down the ride cymbal beside the floor tom before wiping the sweat off my forehead. I walk out of the room into the actual shed to see Fluttershy and her friends helping her with organizing the garden tools and other doo-dads. "Well that's the music room done, Maybe I can try my musician skills when we are done" Fluttershy's face curled into a small smile after she placed a rake on one of the shelves.
"I would love to hear you play!" Rainbow said before she began to hover but Applejack quickly bit down on her tail so she didn't wreck the shed we just made.
she quit flying and placed her hooves on the ground with an annoyed expression causing Fluttershy to giggle a little before saying "Well we just finished so it would be nice to hear you play" I smile and head back to the music room as I call it and pick up the acoustic guitar with my magical grip before realizing that I don't know how to play with magic.
I suddenly think of solution so I think that my hands are there and plucking the strings, Once I plucked a string with my non-existent finger, The guitar played a string which caused me to smile before strumming all of the strings to find that it's in tune so I walk back out and pull up one of the chairs in the room before sitting down and placing the guitar in my lap.
I look around to see the girls in a circle and waiting for me to play so I quickly think of a song before playing

I sang all the words and got all the strings right even though I was a bit rusty since I haven't played for a few months, their faces were priceless as I strummed the last note and placed my hoof on the strings to mute the guitar before levitating it over to the stand in the other room "That was amazing" Rainbow said in awe
I nod before saying "I think it relates to me when I was in the wasteland cause I had so many opportunities that I had to quit on because they were pretty much non-existent, the yellow and red came to be by the bombs that dropped when I was only ten" Their expressions changed from awe to sympathetic before Fluttershy walked up to me and wrapped her forelegs around me and pulled me into a hug.
My heart was nearly popping from my chest as I felt the warm embrace of her, I suddenly felt like crying as more of the girls joined in for the hug. After a few minutes of hugging, they let go and smile at me causing me to smile back and say "Thank you all, for your hospitality, for your kindness. This is a rare sight for a wasteland wanderer, and I thank *sniff* you" I felt the tears welling up in my eyes as memories of my carefree childhood flooded my mind.
I felt a hoof on my shoulder so I blink the tears out my eyes to see Twilight in front of me "Nopony should have to go through that, I'm surprised your mind is still in one piece after what you've been through" Twilight says causing I chuckle a bit before wiping the tears from my cheeks.
I say "A strong mind leads to a strong soul." Everypony giggles
Applejack says "Well ah need to get going, gotta buck some apples in the morning"
I smile one more time before saying "We all need some, It has been a long day" Everypony nodded in agreement.
The girls said goodbye and left, leaving me and Flutters alone in the shed. I close the door to the music room and walk out of the shed with Fluttershy, I look up to the sky to see the moon just rising from the horizon so I follow Fluttershy inside and sit down on the couch. I wait a few minutes before Fluttershy comes in with two plates of spaghetti only without the meat, We eat and conversate about what our lives were like back then.
When we finished eating, I did the polite thing and took both the dishes into the kitchen. I washed the plates before I put them in the correct cupboard, I head back into the living room and sat on the couch "Anyways, My mother was a metal head musician and same with my Dad. My mom worked as a Waitress at some restaurant that I can't remember the name of and my dad was a gun mechanic meaning that he built and repaired guns for a living."
Memories of my parents flowed through my head once more before I was brought out of those thoughts when I was tackled by Fluttershy, I regained my senses to see I was pulled into a cuddle as Fluttershy buried her head into my chest. I dragged my hoof through her mane as she whispered "You poor soul, I will always there if you need someone to talk to" Tears started to well up again as I placed my other hoof on her back.
We spent a few minutes cuddling till I heard the silent snore of Fluttershy, Indicating that she has fallen asleep so leaving me no choice, I drift off to sleep leaving my vision in pitch black void.
