Loud 10 Equestria Girls Part 1
In a high school that was a few states away from Royal Woods, we see a group of girls sitting around a music room. However, they weren’t doing much at the moment and some of them looking like they were waiting for something with a few of them keeping themselves busy.
The first girl was sitting on the floor and writing in a brown journal with a special sun symbol on the front. She seemed to have a giddy smile and a heavy blush on her face as she wrote in it. This girl had yellow skin, cyan eyes, and yellow and red striped hair. She wore an orange short with the same sun symbol that was on the journal on the center of the shirt along with a sleeveless leather jacket with gold spikes on the collar. She had a dark magenta skirt with a black belt with small silver spikes across it and light black boots. This was Sunset Shimmer
The second girl was sitting at a drum set and if one thing could be said about her…it was that she was very pink. Her skin was pink, and her hair was long and very cotton-candy like and also a darker pink then her skin along with crystal blue eyes. She had a blue bow in her hair and wore a white tank top that had three balloons in the center each with one of the primary colors. She had long white stockings with open toed shoes that were blue on the bottom with a pink heart and pink ribbons on the top. She currently had a smile on her face and she simply tapped the drums with drumsticks and simply making beats up. This was the endless amount of energy and happiness girl Pinkie Pie.
The third girl was sitting a few feet next to sunset was a girl with purple skin and glasses. Her hair was in a ponytail and was colored a dark sapphire blue with purple and pink streaks. Her eyes were also purple, and show wore a light blue shirt with dark blue thin stripes and slightly puffy short sleeves and a dark pink ribbon. She had a purple skirt that had two pockets as well as pink sparkling stars around it and smaller light purple stars around it. This was Twilight Sparkle, or as she’s sometimes known, Sci-Twi.
The fourth girl sitting right next to Sci-Twi had had a purple dog with green ears on her lap. The girl had a pinkish-white tank-top with a green skirt that had three butterflies on it with transparent pink frills. She had long green boots that were white on the bottom. She had long pink hair that almost covered her left eye and aqua eyes. The girl’s name was Fluttershy and the dog on her lap was Twilights dog Spike.
The last two girls in the room were sitting on the opposite side of the room with one sitting in the others lap as they were currently cuddling and kissing. The first girl was a girl with orange skin with white freckles, emerald green eyes, and blond hair tied in a red band near the end. She wore a Stetson hat at a white shirt with green sleeves that had a bright red apple on it along with a jean skirt and cowboy boots that had three apples on the front of each. This was Applejack.
The girl sitting on Applejacks lap and kissing the farmgirls cheek was a girl that screamed elegant fashionista. She had pure white skin with well done and kept purple hair that had a three-diamond clip in it with dark blue eyes. She wore a blue dress with very short sleeves that had a diamond pattern at the bottom along with a purple skirt that went to her knees. She also had blue high purple high heels with diamonds all over them. This was Rarity, Applejacks girlfriend.
And these girls were all students at a school called Canterlot High School.
Twilight was currently scrolling through her phone but looked up and couldn’t help but smirk as she looked up at to see Rarity and Applejack’s cuddle session. “You two enjoying yourselves~”
This caused Applejack and Rarity to freeze as they blush and chuckled sheepishly. “Hehe, sorry bout that ya’ll, guess ah can’t help but show a little love to ma precious sugar cube.” Applejack said as she started tickling Rarity chin causing the fashionista to giggle a bit as she moved away.
“Darling, the others are watching.” Rarity said with a small smile on her face as she pointed to the other who were now all watching them with smiles on their faces.
“Let them watch.” Applejack whispered into Rarity’s ear before kissing her cheek, making the fashionista giggle.
Just then Pinkie let out a fangirl like squeal as she said. “You two are totally my OTP!” Pinkie said in her usual hyperactive and happy tone. “You two as well as Sunset and Twilight. Er, Princess Twilight I mean.” Pinkie corrected herself as Sunset looked at her with a smirk.
Meanwhile Sci-Twi laughed sheepishly as she scratched the back of her head. “It’s still kinda weird that the girl you’re dating is the pony princess version of me.” The nerd explained as the girl, or rather mare, her best friend was dating was an alternate pony version of herself.
Sunset simply chuckled in response as she put a hand on Sci-Twi’s shoulder. “Yeah but you two are different enough to the point where you seem like completely different people. Like twins more than alternate versions.” Sunset explained to her. Her history with the pony version of Twilight Sparkle was interesting to say the least, but one thing led to another and the two were in a happy relationship similar to Rarity and Applejack.
Just the Spike stood up from Fluttershy’s lap and actually spoke. Yes, he was a talking dog. “Well I think it’s awesome that the Equestrian version of me is a Dragon! How cool is that?” The pup said as Fluttershy giggled and petted his back, making his tail wag.
“Oh yes, and he was quite the gentlemen. Just like you.” Fluttershy said in a puppy dog voice as she started scratching spikes chin, causing the dog to then start raise and lower his leg up and down as a relaxed expression came to his face.
Just then something in Sci-Twi’s pocket vibrated, causing the purple skin girls to reach in and show it was her phone vibrating. When she checked it, she let out a sigh as she looked towards the rest of her friends. “Well, Rainbow’s 5 minutes late. Again. For the third time this week.” She announced making a few of the girls in the room groan.
“Does a proper meeting time mean nothing to that girl?” Rarity complained as she got off Applejack’s lap to simply sit next to her girlfriend.
Applejack couldn’t help but chuckle as she wrapped an arm around the fashionista. “Have you met Dash?”
Before any of the girls could say anything else, the doors to the music room opened and a random blur came in at high speeds, starling a few of the girls in the room. Fluttershy in particular let out a fearful squeal as she accidently dropped Spike on his butt and hid behind her tambourine. When the blur died down it revealed another girl with light blue skin and magenta eyes with rainbow colored hair. She had rainbow colored wrist bands, a blue hoodie with yellow stripes on the sleeves, a white shirt with a single blue stripe on the bottom and the center having a symbol of a cloud with a rainbow lightning bolt. She had very dark blue pants with each leg having two rainbow lightning bolts on it and red, white, and blue colored shoes with yellow lightning bolts on them. This was Rainbow Dash.
One thing to note about all the girls is that they all had a special amulet around their necks attached to a necklace.
“Guys! You won’t believe what just happened!” She said with excitement clear in her voice.
“Their having a cookie party in the cafeteria?!” Pinkie asked as she bounced up and down in anticipation.
“There’s gonna be a fashion show in town?!” Rarity asked with diamonds in her eyes as her girlfriend couldn’t help but roll her eyes and smile at the fashionista’s enthusiasm over anything clothes related and patted her head.
“You’re late again.” Twilight deadpanned.
“No…” Rainbow said with a blank tone, her friends not even getting close to what she guessed. The athlete then shook her head and gained her excited expression back. “I just got us a gig to play at a concert happening in Royal Woods!”
Pinkie then let out a long high-pitched gasp as she said. “Royal Woods?! We’re going to Royal Woods! We’re going to Royal Woods! We’re going to Royals Woods…what’s Royal Woods?” Pinkie said as she ended up having no idea what Rainbow was talking about.
“It’s a town in the south eastern part of Michigan.” Twilight explained as she adjusted her glasses before saying. “I don’t get why that’s so exciting though.”
Rainbow Dash then let out a gasp as she stared at her friends in disbelief. “Seriously?! Come on guy’s it’s Royal Woods! You gotta know why that’s awesome!”
All the girls were silent, giving some time to think about why Royal Woods was exciting Rainbow Dash so much. Then after a minute of thinking, Rarity was the one to let out a gasp as an excited expression slowly came to her face. “That’s right! That where all those heroes have been popping up!”
Dash quickly smiled at Rarity as she pointed to her. “Yes! Exactly! And that’s where we’ll be going!” Rainbow Dash said as Rarity couldn’t help but let out a fan girl like squeal.
However, all the other girls were still confused as they scratched either theirs head or chins in confusion until Sunset finally spoke up. “Heroes? Sorry but I still don’t understand what the big deal is Rainbow Dash?”
Rainbow Dash then groaned as she pulled out her phone and started searching for something on it. “Do you girls live under a rock or something. Look!” Rainbow then showed them what was one her phone was a video. The girls that didn’t know why Royal Woods was a big deal looked at the video and it appeared to be of a strange creature made of dark purple rocks with pink crystals on his body with a single green eye fighting a spider-like robot by absorbing its energy blast and firing back ultraviolent beams back at it.
Most of the girls couldn’t help but watch the video in amazement as they watched the Crystal creature jumped on top of the spider bot and shot it heads off. “Yo nelly! That looks crazy! Even by our standards.” Applejack commented as they’ve dealt with their own fair share of issue’s and events, but nothing involving robot bugs and crystal men.
Meanwhile Fluttershy was slightly trembling at the events the video show and said in her usual timid and nervous. “Th-that l-looks p-pretty violent.”
“I’ve never seen a creature like that.” Sunset commented as she kept her eyes focused on the crystal alien. “Not even in Equestria.”
“And it doesn’t look like any known speices on earth.” Sci-Twi commented as her brain went into analysis mode as she tried to use science to figure out what exactly that crystal creature and its abilities. As well as the material the spider robot was made of as it didn’t resemble any alloy on earth either.
However, Rainbow simply scoffed as a cocky smirked grew on her face. “Well duh, you haven’t seen them on Earth, that crystal guy is an alien.”
“An alien?!” Everyone but Rainbow and Rarity gasped in unison.
“Why yes darlings.” Rarity confirmed as she took out her own phone and opened up her MyStable app and started showing various pictures of aliens as well as articles describing them and their deeds. “They’ve been appearing since last summer and have been preforming heroic acts since then. I must admit I’m a bit of a fan myself. Especially of that lovely Diamondhead alien.” But just then Rarity heard someone clearing her throat and saw her girlfriend giving her a raised brow and crossing her arms. “I’m just a big fan darling, no one could ever replace my little apple.” Rarity reassured as she placed a peck on Applejacks lips.
“Got that right.” Applejack said with a smirked as she wrapped an arm around Rarity allowing the fashionista to lay her head on Applejack’s shoulder.
Rainbow Dash in response made a gagging sound while pointing in her mouth, making the couple deadpan at her. “Keep the lovey dovey stuff to yourselves. Come on get excited! We’re going to perform at the town where all the alien heroes are showing up!”
However, Sunset Shimmer seemed a little unsure of everyone and pointed out. “I don’t know Dash. The concept of aliens existing just seems a little too farfetched to me.” The yellow skin girl pointed out as although she had expertise in the field of magic, the thought of extraterrestrial’s always seems ridiculous to her, even when she still lived in Equestria.
“Um, Sunset.” Fluttershy spoked up in a meek tone with Spike now in her arms. “Aren’t you technically an alien?”
…
There was an awkward silence. Just then cricket chirps were heard, and everyone look to Pinkie and gave her a deadpanned look as she was the only playing the chirping from her phone. Pinkie then turned her phone off and hid it behind her back. “Sorry…”
“Anyway…” Sunset began again as she rubbed her arm nervously. “Ok, that’s technically true, but it’s different.”
“I don’t know Sunset; the idea of aliens isn’t too farfetched.” Twilight pointed out with a smile. “So far humans have observed 46.508 billion light years of the universe. And it’s possibly even bigger than that with near countless stars, planets, and systems. The idea of alien life can’t be too unfeasible with all the different planets that exist in the Milky Way Galaxy alone.”
“Uuuuh, yeah! What she said!” Rainbow Dash agreed, not really understanding Twilights words but getting enough to know that it supports alien existence. “And I mean come on, there’s plenty of things in life that can’t be explained. Like how our magics works in this world exactly,”
“Where the portal came from,” Fluttershy added, referring to the portal to Equestria that is outside the school.
“Pinkie Pie.” Applejack stated with a smirk as Pinkie herself giggled and nodded.
“The face that this account has so many followers!” Rarity suddenly added rather loudly as everyone looked to Rarity and saw her looking at her phone in disbelief. “Look at this!” The fashionista said as she showed everyone what was on her phone.
Everyone looked at the page on Rarity’s phone and slowly grew confused as Spike was the one who spoke up. “It just looks like a piece of 2x4 with a face drawn on it with crayon.” The dog pointed out as everyone slowly nodded.
“It is!” Rarity yelled as she pulled her phone away and took a second look. “Yet somehow it has over one-million followers!”
“Ooooook…popular pieces of wood aside.” Applejack said slowly, trying to get the topic back on track. “You said you got us a gig their right Rainbow Dash?” The farmer asked with the girl in question nodding in response. “Well then why don’t we head on over there and see for ourselves!”
All the girls couldn’t help but smile and cheer in agreement. Aliens or not, the Rainbooms never turned down a chance to preform!
“Roadtrip! WOOHOO!” Pinkie Pie yelled in nothing but pure excitement.
ROYAL WOODS MICHIGAN
The very next day in the town of Royal Woods, a particular 16-year-old rock and roller was in the living room of the Loud House on her computer. She was tapping her fingers on the table as she stared at the computer screen in anticipation. Just then she heard a ‘ding’ sound and looked, and an excited smile came to her face as she jumped up onto the couch and pumped her fist into the air. “Alright! Yes!” Luna cheered as she heard some steps coming from the stairs.
“You seem excited.” Lincoln commented with his own smile as he came down the stairs and leaned against the arm of the couch. “Something happen?”
“Yeah dude! Check it!” Luna told him as she sat back down and turned her laptop to him. Lincoln looked and saw that Luna had purchased something involving ‘The Royal Woods Potluck Concert.’
“What’s a Potluck concert?” The 12-year-old asked as he’s never heard that term before.
“It’s a concert where a huge variety of different bands play.” Luna explained as she started listing things out on her fingers. “You could go from a rock band, to a country band, to techno, you never know what each band is gonna play. And I just scored two tickets!”
“That’s awesome Luna!” Lincoln cheered as he and his older sister high fived. “You taking Sam?”
“Nah, my GF’s outta town right now visiting her grandma.” Luna answered with a sly smile as she patted her brother on the head. “Actually, I was hoping we could go together.”
Lincoln was a bit surprised at the offer as he asked. “Really?”
“Totally bro!” Luna confirmed as got up and wrapped a hand around her brother and pulled him into a one-armed hug. “It’s been awhile since we’ve spent some quality time together, I thought this would be a good excuse to hang out with my favorite little bro.”
Lincoln blushed a bit and chuckled in response as he leaned in the hug. “Yeah guess we’ve both been pretty busy lately.” Lincoln stated as his hero work has kept him busy like usual and lately Luna’s band which included Sam and two of their friends has been slowly taking off more and more recently and them getting more gigs. “You’ve got a deal Luna.”
“Sweet!” Luna cheered with a pumped up first as she held her brother tightly. “This is gonna be awesome dude!”
“So, Luna.” Lincoln began as his big sister looked down to him. “The concert doesn’t start till 7:30, what do you want to do till then?”
Luna hummed a bit in thought as she put a hand to her chin. Just then an idea came to her head as she said. “Why don’t we just head out and see what the day has in store for us? Just wait for it to come to us.”
“So, do what we’ve been doing since I got the watch?” Lincoln said in a joking matter as Luna chuckled and nodded. “Sounds good, let’s go Luna.” And so, the two siblings left the house together, ready to take on whatever the day threw at them.
As the two were walking together, they failed to notice an extremely brightly covered tour bus driving past them. This bus belonged to none other than the Rainbooms. Currently in the bus Applejack was the one driving while Rarity had a sleep mask on trying to get some more ‘Beauty Rest’ Fluttershy was petting a sleeping Spike on her lap. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie were both sitting next to each other, each playing on a handheld console.
In the very back of the bus, Sunset was currently on her phone looking up one thing. Aliens. And it seemed every single source she looked it up on, Royal Woods was always the first to pop up. Wether it was news articles describing the alien’s various heroics, fan pages of people discussing the aliens for themselves, and even just simple pictures of the aliens. And there was plenty of variety to the aliens ranging from an ice-moth, to a bigheaded crab-like alien, an alien with sockets on its tail, antenna and fingertips, and even reports of a 1000-foot-tall titan being seen on very rare occasion.
Just the Sci-Twi, who was sitting next to Sunset, and looked over her best friends’ shoulder to see what the yellow skinned girl was looking at. “Wow, really getting into this alien stuff huh?” Twilight said with a slightly teasing grin. Even she couldn’t help but tease Sunset a little since she was at first unbelieving of aliens yesterday but now couldn’t stop looking them up today.
Sunset in turned rolled her eyes and explained herself. “Well I guess I just couldn’t help myself…plus the evidence seems undeniable at this point.” Sunset admitted in defeated as Sci-Twi pumped a fist in victory. “But still, even with all the magical events we’ve been through like with the Dazzlings, or the friendship games, or Camp Everfree, I’ve never seen anything like this. Or even abilities that these aliens have like absorbing energy, hydro-kinesis, and the speed aliens have reports of being infinity faster than anything in Equestria.”
“Which means an excellent chance to do some research!” Sci-Twi said as she let out a happy squeal as Sunset simply smirked at her. “Just think about the scientific possibilities if we run into any one of the aliens.”
“You’re not thinking of dissecting one, are you?” Sunset asked in a slightly teasing tone, though a small part of her was worried that was actually true.
“Pfft, of course not. I’d never do something as cruel as that.” Twilight confirmed as she took out a note pad that had a page opened labeled ‘Questions to ask Aliens.’ “Just stuff like, how did you arrive on our planet, what’s your technology like, how do your abilities work, why have you been making it your goal to protect this town specifically…”
Sunset simply chuckled as Sci-Twi kept listing off more question’s she would ask the aliens. Sunset then put her attention back on her phone and began scrolling through more pictures of the aliens. But as she was swiping, something caught her eye. She went back to the beginning of the list and started scrolling again but only looking for one detail. And all the aliens had them. An hour-glass symbol located somewhere on their bodies.
“Hey Twilight, look at his.” Sunset said, getting Twilight to stop listing her question and looked at the photo’s Sunset was scrolling through. “Notice anything these aliens all have in common?”
Twilight adjusted her glasses and narrowed her eyes, trying to find what Sunset was talking about. But Twilight was smart, so it didn’t take her long to catch onto what Sunset was talking about. “They all have that symbol on them.”
“Exactly.” Sunset confirmed as she pulled her phone back. “What do you think it means?”
“I don’t know. It doesn’t look like anything I’ve seen before.” Sci-Twi admitted as she’s studied almost every subject one could think of, including symbol’s ranging from ancient Greek, to Chinese and an hourglass symbol didn’t ring a bell with anything she knew.
Sunset then put a hand on her chin as she started to think of the possibilities. But before she could say anything suddenly Pinkie appeared in the seat in front of them and said. “Maybe it’s symbol for a super-secret intergalactic organization that’s meant to protect people form the dangers of the unknown and keep peace through out the galaxy!” Both Sunset and Twilight were stunned silent at Pinkie’s statement with mouths slightly gaped as Pinkie casually shrugged. “Just a guess.” The pink girl said before going back to her seat next to Rainbow Dash.
Getting their bearing back after Pinkie’s sudden intrusion into their conversation, Sunset slowly said. “Ooook, while I won’t rule that out, I still think we need to think more about this. Considering out groups magnet for the weird it might be good to brace ourselves and prepare for any sort of strange event that could happen in this town.”
“Good call.” Twilight agreed right as they felt the bus come to a stop.
“Alright everyone, we’re here!” Applejack announced from the driver’s seat as she stood up and stretched out. As Applejack went to wake up her girlfriend, everyone else did the same with getting up and stretching out.
Once Rarity was fully awake, the Rainbooms went on to collect their luggage and instruments and stepped outside to see they were parked a nice-looking hotel. Rarity in particular looked up at it with stars in her eyes before gently putting down her things to give her girlfriend a big hug. “Oh, darling it’s wonderful!”
Applejack chuckled in response and she gave Rarity a peck on the forehead. “Of course, my little sugar cube. And since we’re preforming at the Potluck Concert, it ain’t gonna cost us a cent.” The farm girl announced as the other girls cheered in response.
“But!” Spike suddenly interrupted from Sci-Twi’s arms. “Does it allow pets?”
“Don’t you worry none Spike ah made sure of that.” Applejack reassured as she patted the dogs head.
Just then Fluttershy took a deep breath through her nose and let out a relaxed sigh. “And this town’s air so nice and refreshing. I’m actually rather excited to be here.”
“And don’t forget the super cool and awesome alien heroes!” Rainbow reminded everyone. “There’s no way we can be here and not see any of them. It’s gonna be totally awesome!”
“Yes, well let’s just worry about get up to our room. Then maybe we can explore around town and see what is had to offer. We don’t go on till 8.” Sunset reminded everyone as they were scheduled to be the opening performance. While the concert officially started at 7:30, the actual music started playing at 8.
“My GPS found a mall nearby, maybe we can stop their first?” Twilight suggested as everyone cheered in agreement.
“I’ll go find someone to help us with our bags and instruments.” Sunset said as she went to go find an employee of the hotel that would take their things up for them.
?
In a dark room in a location that couldn’t be made out, a certain metal masked scientist was at work going over various monitors. However, Zeds interest was piqued a current monitor that was labeled ‘Energy Readings.’ This was a censor that scanned all of royal woods and detected energy readings around the town. And currently today, there was a current spike of energy that suddenly appearing in town. As Zed was busy trying to map out the location of the energy spike. Just then a scientist working for the Forever Knights steadily approached Zed, trying not to risk angering him. “S-sir, what might I ask are you doing?”
“Take a look at this.” Zed instructed, not directly answering the question. The scientist did as he was told without hesitation and looked at then Energy Reading monitor. Before he could ask what exactly was going on, Zed spoke up again. “A few hours ago, there was an unexcepted spike of energy detected in the town. I’ve tried to narrow down what it might be, but this type of energy seems rather unique in nature.”
“So, what do you plan on doing with it sir?” The scientist asked with curiosity in his voice.
Zane was silent for a moment, but a smirked slowly crept up on his face as he turned his head slightly so one of his eyes was looking at the scientist. “Bring me Cage.”
Just like that, all the scientist in the room let out a fearful gasp as they all stopped. The scientist that was talking to Zed started shaking. “A-a-are y-you sure sir? He’s r-rather…unstable.”
However, Zed simply narrowed his eyes impatiently as he said. “Did I stutter?”
If the scientist wasn’t panicking before, he certainly was now. “U-u-uh ye-yes sir! Right away sir!” The scientist quickly said as he quickly ran off to follow his superiors’ orders.
Later, in a different room, multiple knights with lances at the ready were in front of a metal box with a single door with a small bared window on it with an absurd amount of locks on it. The knights in the room all had their lances pointed right at the door to the box, ready to shoot just in case what was inside broke out. Just then footsteps were heard as they saw Zed with two knights next to him as guards walked into the room. Zed then snapped his fingers, signaling his guards to step away. “Release him.”
The knights in the room all flinched at the order but didn’t say anything in argument to his orders. Just then multiple knights went up to the box and started undoing the ridiculous amount of locks on it. When all the locks were unlocked the knight quickly stepped back and pointed their lances at the door again, ready to shoot.
Zed stepped forward, not fearing anything, stepped forward. Suddenly the door started creek open as footsteps were heard from inside the box. The knights got ready to shoot, but Zed raised his hand, ordering them to cease. The door finally opened up completely as the person they were keeping inside walked out and in front of Zed. He was easily a whole foot taller than the scientist and appeared to be a Russian man with long shaggy brown hair along with a short but scruffy mustache and beard combo. He was shirtless, showing off his hairy 6-pack and muscular arms. He had a black belt and orange pants you’d seen prisoners wearing and brown foots.
Zed looked up at the Russian man and started listing of facts about him. “Cage, real name unknown. Locked in Russia’s most secure insane asylum for committing over 47 acts of terrorism, over 1000 known murders, torturing victims, dealing with illegal weapon trading, as well as multiple other crimes.” Zed listed off as Cage simply stayed silent, letting Zed talk.
“You were the one to break me out.” Cage stated with a thick Russian accent. “Why is that.”
“Whatever do you mean?” Zed asked with a smirk and a tone that showed he knew exactly what Cage meant.
“I’ve dealt with your type before.” Cage stated in a semi-threatening tone. “You’re the type of man that only does things for people when it benefits him. You have something you want from me, otherwise I could have rotted in prison for all you cared.”
Zed then let out a sarcastic sigh as he rolled his head and eyes. “Oh fine, you got me.” Zane then took out a device and handed it to Cage. When the Russian criminal look, he saw it was a tracking device that seemed to be pinned a specific energy reading. “Earlier today we detected a sudden energy spike in the nearby area and after learning of your various skills we believe you have the necessary skills to retrieve it and bring it back to us…alive.”
“And what’s in it for me?” Cage asked, wanting something in return for his services.
“Other then your freedom.” Zed said in a blank tone, before gaining a smirk and explaining what Cage would truly be getting. “I’d lend you special gear I’ve recently developed in order to go about your mission. And if you do well enough, I’ll let you keep it. I’m sure it’ll cater to your specific skill set and then some. Afterall, whats the point of a job if you can’t have some…fun while doing it?”
Hearing Zed’s explanation and the tone the doctor spoke in to describe it, a sadistic smirk came to Cage’s face as he said. “Where do I start?”
ROYAL WOODS MALL
In the Royal Woods Mall, Lincoln and Luna were currently enjoying their brother sister day out together. So far the two went to the park and rented some kites to fly, went to the arcade to play some games as Luna proved to be extremely good at the rhythm games, and currently they were at their towns mall to both browse around a few of the stores and to get a 3 o’clock lunch. Currently both were laughing for some reason’s as Luna was carrying a small bag with the logo for the music store on it. “Man, that was a great joke dude!” Luna complimented, wiping away a happy tear.
“Thanks, I came up with it myself.” Lincoln stated as he couldn’t help but puff his chest out a bit in pride at his funny joke. “Ya know Luna, I’m really glad we did this.”
“Same here dude.” Luna said as she ruffled Lincoln’s hair a bit making the white head laugh a bit. “And we still got 5 hours before the concert. Meaning we still got some time to spend together before tonight. This is great.”
“Yeah, it feels good just getting to spend some nice simple time together with family.” Lincoln said with a smile as Luna nodded in agreement. “Maybe after this I should ask everyone else if they wanna spend a day together, one at a time of course.”
“That’s really cool of you dude.” Luna complimented before they both approached the food court. “Now let’s get some grub, my stomachs barking dude!”
“Yeah, same here.” Lincoln agreed as they both headed out to get some food. About 10 minutes later, the two siblings met up again at an empty table each with their own food trays. Lincoln decided he was in the mood for Chinese food while Luna had gotten a club sandwich. As the two began eating, Lincoln couldn’t help but ask. “So, what kind of bands do you think are gonna play in the concert tonight?”
As Luna swallowed a bite in her sandwich, she simply shrugged showing she didn’t know. “It’s like I said, at these kinds of concerts you never know what to expect or what kind of bands show up. I think there might be a list on the website, but I like to be surprised sometimes you know dude?”
Lincoln simply smiled in nodded in agreement as he bit into one of his eggrolls. “Yeah, that does sound fun not knowing what to expect.” However, as Lincoln swallowed, he then looked at what was behind Luna and his eyes widened as he said. “What the-who could possibly eat that much sweets?”
“What are you talking about dude?” Luna asked with confusion. Lincoln then pointed behind Luna and the rocker looked back and saw that a pink haired and skinned girl had her food tray filled with one of probably every single desert the food court. “Woah! And I though Lols had a sweet tooth!” However, Luna then narrowed her eyes at the group the pink girl was it and saw 6 other girls, each with what one would say unnatural skin tone. “You know, those gals over there look kinda familiar…although their skin color is kinda weird are they human or-”
“I thought we agreed not to talk about the plot holes Luna.” Lincoln stated with his eyes narrowed at his sister with his arms crossed.
Luna chuckled sheepishly in response before looking back at the seven girls and trying to recognize them again. Just then it came to her as she gasped and quickly turned away and hid her face incase they saw her.” Dude! Those are the Rainbooms!”
“The Rainbooms?” Lincoln asked with confusion, not recognizing that particular name.
“Yeah dude!” Luna confirmed as she took out her phone and brought of the Rainboom’s social media page. “Their a band from Canterlot High School! They make these totally wicked songs.”
As Lincoln scrolled through Luna’s phone to see more of the Rainbooms page, realization slowly dawned on him as he let out an ‘Oooooh’ sound. “Yeah, I think I remember you sending me of a few of their songs.”
“Yeah, they’re really cool!” Just then something came to Luna’s mind as she let out a long gasp as she put a hand to her cheek. “Do you think they’re gonna play at the concert tonight?”
“Why don’t you ask them?” Lincoln suggested as he finished his eggroll. “They seem pretty nice.”
“I’m nervous dude.” Luna stated as she shifted her chair closer to their table. “You remember how I get around famous people. Remember last year with Mick Swagger at the Fun Fair?”
Lincoln chuckled at the memory and shook his head. “Yeah but he was your idol Luna. I’m sure it’ll be different with these guys.” Lincoln reassured his sister as the rocker took a few deep breathes.
“Ok…maybe your right.” Luna agreed as she calmed herself down. “I’ll asked when their done eating. I don’t wanna bother them while their chowing down.” Lincoln nodded in agreement as they both went on to finishing their own food.
At the Rainbooms table, each of the girls gotten their own food. Sunset was enjoying a veggie pizza, Applejack was having brunch with a glass of apple juice and apple sauce on the side, Rarity enjoying some Greek food, Fluttershy was having a fruit salad, Sci-Twi was also having Chinese food similar to Lincoln, Spike was under the table enjoying any leftovers the girls fed him, Rainbow Dash was eating a sub sandwich and Pinkie Pie was eating just about everything the food court had that was on the desert menu.
The rest of the girls stopped eating their own food and watched as Pinkie stuffed all her sweets into her mouth in ridiculous proportions making her cheeks swell up like a chipmunk. “Um, should we remind her to chew?” Fluttershy quietly asked as the rest of the girls were unsure how to respond.
Just then Pinkie Pie gulped down all the sweets without even chewing, and her figure not even being effect. Pinkie then giggled as she said. “Silly willy, It’s alright! I do it all the time!” The pink girl responded, making everyone simply laugh in response.
“Honestly we should just stop questioning it and just let Pinkie Pie be Pinkie Pie.” Sci-Twi told everyone as they all let out an ‘amen’ in response.
“Sounds great to me!” Pinkie cheered as she took out a jumbo flippee and chugged it all down in 3 seconds flat.
As Sunset simply sighed happily, she then decided to bring up a subject they needed to start talking about. “So, what song should we sing tonight? We’re opening up at the concert so we gotta do something big!”
Everyone nodded in agreement with the yellow skinned girl as they begun brain storming idea. “Well I don’t know what song we should do but I packed for us these splendid new costumes I finished yesterday. One word. Neon!” The fashionista told everyone with excitement as she’s been having a ‘glow-in-the-dark’ theme in her head for awhile and finally was able to incorporate it.
“Oh, I have a few song idea’s I recently wrote.” Fluttershy woke up with a little more volume then she normally speaks with.
“We just gotta find some time to practice and try on Rarity’s costume.” Sci-Twi told everyone as she adjusted her glasses before feeding Spike the last of her eggroll.
“Aaaaw, but I was hoping to check this place out a little more.” Rainbow Dash complained as she rested her head on her hands with a displeased expression on her face.
“Now, now, relax Rainbow.” Applejack reassured as she put a hand to the athlete’s shoulder. “I’m sure we can find time to practice for the show and look around a bit.”
“But darliiiiing, my costumes.” Rarity let out as she gave Applejack puppy dogs eyes, wanting everyone, especially her girlfriend, to try on the outfits she made for all of them as soon as possible.
“We’ll try them on ah promise.” Applejack reassured her girlfriend with a peck on the cheek. “We can explore around town and then we’ll head back the hotel. Ok?”
“…Fine.” Rarity complied but still put on a pouty face as she leaned into Applejack.
After a while, the Rainbooms all finished eating and went to go put away their trays as they gave Spike anything they didn’t eat. This left the pup with a pleased expression and a slightly bloated belly causing Twilight to start carrying him in her bag.
“So, what should we check out first?” Sunset asked as the group started to think about what to do next.
“Um, excuse me dudes.”
They all heard a voice in front of them and looked to see Luna in front of them with Lincoln close behind her with his arms in his coat pockets and a smile on his eyes. “Yes darling, can we help you?” Rarity asked with a kind smile.
“Hi, I’m Lincoln Loud and this is my sister Luna. She has something she wanted to ask you.” Lincoln told them as he gently nudged his sister forward.
“Uh…well…I was just wondering…” Luna began nervously before finally saying. “Well, you dudes wouldn’t happen to be the Rainbooms would ya?”
“We sure are!” Applejack confirmed as she tipped her Stetsons hat to Luna in a greeting. “What can we do you for?”
While Luna couldn’t help but mentally squeal in response that she was actually meeting and talking to the Rainbooms in person, she managed to keep her composer and asked. “We-well I just happen to be a pretty big fan of you dudes and I was wondering if you were playing at the Royal Woods Potluck Concert tonight?”
Rainbow Dash then stepped up and put her hands to her hips and put a prideful smile on. “You bet we are!” Rainbow confirmed. “We’re actually the opening act!”
“Woah! That’s totally awesome!” Luna said with amazement in her voice as a few of the Rainbooms couldn’t help but giggle at her reaction. “Hey, would it be too much to ask if I could have your dudes autograph?”
“We’d be happy to.” Twilight said as she turned to her friends. “Anyone have a pen?”
“I do~” Pinkie said in a sing song voice as she reached into her cotton candy-like hair and pulled out, not a pen, but a bubblegum scented marker and presented it to everyone.
“I guess that works.” Sunset said with a smirk as she took the pen and wrote her name in the notepad Luna brought out. The rest of the Rainbooms then proceeded to write their names in the same page.
Once Fluttershy was done, Luna looked and saw all the signatures of the Rainboom one on page. “This is sweet!” Luna cheered as she looked towards the Rainbooms. “Thanks a bunch dudes!”
“Oh, um, it’s no problem, really.” Fluttershy said modestly as she blushed and hid behind her hair.
It was then that Rarity looked towards Lincoln, or more specifically his jacket and couldn’t help but admire it. “Darling I must say I absolutely love your look!” Rarity complimented as she knelt down to Lincoln’s level and inspected his jacket. “I must ask where you got this marvelous jacket from?”
Lincoln simply smiled and slipped off his jacket, leaving him in his plain black tee-shirt. “Actually, my sister Leni made it for me, here you can see it if you want to.”
Rarity gladly accepted the offer and starting look at the jacket and its craftsmen ship, admiring how well made it was and how well it fit Lincoln. However, with Lincoln’s jacket no longer on him, Sunset was able to see something particular about Lincoln. On his left wrist was a big and bulky black wristwatch with an hourglass symbol on it. The same symbol that was on every single one of the aliens.
‘Does he have some sort of connections to them?’ Sunset asked herself mentally as tons of questions started popping into her head. Just then she looked to her necklace and an idea came into her head. She then walked up behind Lincoln and say. “Hey, what’s a really cool watch you have.” Sunset complimented as she kneeled down to his level.
“Oh thanks, I, uh, got it at an arcade.” Lincoln told her, but this statement caused Applejack to raise an eyebrow at him.
“Mind if I take a look at it?” Sunset asked as she placed her right above where the watch was. Just then Sunset’s eyes glowed white as her necklace let out a dim glow when-
“OW!” Sunset whelped in pain as she was forced to stand back up and back away as when she tried to use her mind reading powers on Lincoln she was meant with a nasty electric shock.
“Sunset!” Her friends, and the two Loud siblings yelled in concern.
Lincoln in particular walked up to Sunset and gave her a concerned expression. “Are you ok? What happened?” He asked with an equally concerned tone.
“Uuuuuh, well…” Sunset struggled to find the right words as she was still trying to process what happened. She just got electrocuted from trying to read the white-haired boys mind. That’s never happened before. Seeing everyone stare at her in concern, Sunset quickly made an excuse and said. “Oh, uh, just a small static shock that took me by surprise. I’m ok, no big deal.” Sunset hated lying to her friends, but she didn’t know what to make of the situation right now and had to buy time to think about it.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief at Sunset’s reassurance as Pinkie spoke up. “You had us worried there silly. But static electricity sounds fun! Let me try!” Pinkie then started to rub her hands at extreme speeds in her hair and when she pulled them out, she proceeded to poke Rainbow Dash in the shoulder and give her a static shock.
“Ow! Hey!” Rainbow Dash whelped in response as everyone else couldn’t help but laugh.
Everyone but Sunset however as she suddenly took Sci-Twi’s arm and pulled her away from the rest of the group. “Is something wrong Sunset?” Twilight asked as usually when Sunset pulled her away it was usually to tell her something important.
“Look at Lincoln’s watch. It has the same symbol all the aliens have.” Sunset told the purple skin girl as she directed Sci-Twi’s head to look at Lincoln’s wrist right before Rarity handed Lincoln’s coat back to him.
“Hey yeah your right!” Twilight quietly yelled as she saw the hourglass symbol on the watch before Lincoln slipped his jacket back on.
“And get this, that wasn’t a static shock that got me. When I tried to read Lincoln’s mind to try and see what the deal with the watch was, I was suddenly electrocuted!” Sunset explained as Twilight held her chin in thought.
“So, what do you think it means?” Twilight asked as her head began filling with question far faster than anyone else’s head reasonably should.
“It means that Lincoln is probably hiding something.” Sunset stated as she crossed her arms. “And I think maybe we should take some time to try and find it. It might help us figure out that whole alien thing going on in this town.”
“I have an idea.” Twilight told her best friend as she was already on board.
“Hey, Lincoln, Luna.” Sci-Twi called out, making both Loud siblings face her and Sunset. “Well we don’t have to go on stage till tonight and we heard some interesting stories about this town. Maybe you two can show us around?”
Luna then let out a fan girl like squeal as she said. “We’d love to!” However, realization quickly dawned on her and she frowned while rubbing her arm. “Wait, actually Lincoln and I were planning on making this just an us day and I don’t wanna ruin that for him.”
“Luna, it’s fine.” Lincoln reassured his older sister with a soft smile and a chuckle. “We’ll still be spending time together, just with some new friends. Plus, I’ll admit it would be cool to show them around.”
Luna then gained her bright smile back and looked towards the Rainbooms again. “Well you heard from my awesome bro said! We’d love to!”
All the Rainbooms cheered in response as Pinkie Pie in particular suddenly wrapped Lincoln and Luna into a tight hug, preventing the Loud from breathing. “NEW FRIENDS! YIPPEE!!!” Pinkie cheered as Luna and Lincoln’s face started turning blue.
“Um, Pinkie. I think you’re hurting them.” Fluttershy pointed out with a raised finger.
Pinkie then released Luna and Lincoln, finally allowing them to breathe again. “Sorry bout that!” Pinkie apologized with her happy-go-lucky tone.
“Geez…I think…she gives Wendy…a run for her money for hug strength.” Lincoln said in between breathes as he and Luna helped each other up.
“Yeah…I think…you might be right dude.” Luna agreed as she got her breathe back.
“Yeah, yeah, if you two are done already when are you gonna show us around?!” Rainbow Dash yelled as she wanted to get this Royal Woods tour on the road.
“Well, what do you all wanna see first?” Lincoln asked with a chuckle at Rainbow’s tone, reminding him of his sister Lynn.
“Oh! Where’s the candy store!?” Pinkie Pie asked in excitement as her mouth started drooling at the thought of sweets.
“Pinkie I think you’ve had enough sweets.” Sunset said as she placed a hand on Pinkie’s shoulder.
Pinkie then crossed her arms as she pouted and grumbled. “You can never have too much sweets.”
“Why not just show us some of your favorite spots and we can find out more stuff do to on our way.” Twilight suggested as everyone nodded in agreement.
“Sounds great to me.” Applejack said as she put on arm around Rarity.
“Me to!” Rarity agreed as she put her hand on her girlfriends’ shoulder.
“Well then it’s settled!” Lincoln and Luna said in unison as they walked forward and gestured the group to follow them.
“Come on, we’ll show you all Royal Woods has to offer!” Lincoln told them most of the Rainbows grew excited smiles as they followed the Loud siblings.
Sunset and Twilight followed close behind as Sci-Twi asked. “So, do you really think Lincolns up to anything bad.”
“Not really bad I think it would just be better safe then sorry to know a little more information is all.” Sunset explained as they followed their friends. “He does seem like a nice kid. So, until anything comes up let’s try to enjoy ourselves.” Twilight couldn’t help but agree with a nod as the two speed up to catch up with everyone else.
