2: Before the Concert

Futurehoof quickly grabbed a small number of fabrics and stuffed them in her bag. After she grabbed what she thought was a good enough amount, she quickly tied off the bag and ran out of her store with the bag. She looked around till she found an old run-down hotel. She smirked and walked inside, she searched each floor till she found a hallway with a door that looked normal. She knocked on the door then walked in with a grin.

"You couldn't have picked an actual hotel that had an already clean room?" she said as she trotted into the room and sat on the mauve chaise lounge that sat opposite of the magenta meridienne sofa where Breakup sat.

"If I did that I would not get some of the things of my past when I want them. They are the only things about my past that I want around me. So what did you bring the bag for?" Breakup cocked his head, he had no idea what was going on.

"Well, I may or may not have entered your name into a list of people who will be performing tonight at the Canterlot Stadium. And you can not chicken out this time." She made a small side glare at him and it made him smirk.

Breakup was usually forced into concerts, but most of those concerts ended in Breakup leaving with a smile. But for the past few weeks, he has been trying to stay away from the stage. Future noticed it after a few days of him not showing up to one of them.

"Well if a Princess is going why not. I mean she probably won't even remember who I am in about a month." Both he and Future snickered and laughed at the same time at the joke.

While Breakup loved to perform, he started to realize that most of his music was forgotten as soon as it was heard. This was the kind of dilemma Breakup saw coming if he was not to make records on his songs. He felt that someday he will give away his songs to others that sound just like him singing them. He loves meeting his fans, even if one or two of them want to hop in bed with him.

"I decided on what kind of songs you can play tonight. So the first one will be M.I.N.E and Anywhere But Here." Breakup nodded as this combination of music was new to him, and if new to him it was new to the public.

"Hm, let me get a few of my excess scales off and we can start getting ready for rehearsal." Futurehoof nodded and Breakup headed for the bathroom. After he knew the coast was clear and she could not spy on him, he brought out a razor-sharp shell he kept in his mane. He quickly cut himself at the wrist of his front legs using his magic, once he felt satisfied, he washed his legs and shell. After he was cleaned up, he rehid his shell and used a spell to quickly fix his wounds. He plucked out a few loose scales and threw them into the garbage.

"Alright Breakup, you know how to sing the songs but let's get you to practice here so we can perfect that voice so we don't have any hiccups during your choreography." Breakup laughed lightly and shook his head and thought back to when he had messed up one of his concerts by using the wrong choreography while wrecking the stage.

"Okay, but please don't make my outfit look like I'm from space this time." Last time they performed they dressed up as they had been through a cosmic storm.

"Deal!"


Twilight and her friends quickly got out their belongings so that they could enjoy the night. Spike was grabbing a few magazines to read to while waiting for the bands to prep. Twilight was getting a few books to read to pass the time like Spike was doing. Rainbow Dash gathered a few of her keepsakes from her Country Storm Fan Club so he could sign them. Fluttershy was getting her animals settled at home till Twilight came and got her for the concert. Rarity was making small little bracelets as a small gift for the famed and talented singer. Pinkie Pie was surprisingly acting like a normal mare, this concerned her friends but they soon found out why as she was sucking on a lollipop. Applejack was in the process of making a basket of food for her friends in the kitchen.

While everyone was getting ready, however, Starlight and Sunburst were planning on teaching a few evening classes at the castle while Twilight and the others were away. She had heard of Country Storm before, she even saw who he was once. She liked him a lot but loved Sunburst more.

After snapping out of a dazing trance, Starlight teleported over to Twilight and asked the major question.

"Um, Twilight, Could I and Sunburst teach an evening class here in the castle while you guys are gone?"

Twilight gave Starlight a bright smile. "Of course you can! Just remember to clean up any messes ok?"

Starlight agreed and both her and Sunburst walked over to the library and began finding books suitable for the class.

After the doors to the library were shut Twilight and the others gathered around and Twilight teleported them all to the Canterlot Coliseum and let everyone gather themselves as Twilight went back to get Fluttershy. After she returned with Fluttershy, they all got into their seats and waited for the concert to start.


A few hours after they had finished practicing in the room, Futurehoof took both of them to the Coliseum and got themselves backstage without anyone seeing them. Futurehoof struggled backstage trying to get Breakup's outfit look like he had been apart of a horrific accident to fit the song themes. But kept messing up when it came to the face.

"Let me do it. I have done this all the time, I got this." Breakup laughed as Future struggled at trying to make a messed up demon looking face. She handed him the brush while smiling and watched as the master proves his make up worth yet again and makes his face exactly the way she wanted it to.

"You know you are gonna have to teach me how to do that someday." He smirked as he took a deep breath and fixed his outfit.

"Ready when you are." and as he finished, the curtain rose and the audience erupted with applause and screams of cheers, even from the princesses.

Welp thought Breakup I wasn't expecting all of them but I guess if the princesses like my performing identity, maybe they will like my identity.

With that boost of confidence, Breakup ran out to the front of the stage and greeted everyone in the arena, marking the start of the concert.
