Harmony and Heavy Metal

It had been two days since the meeting between Eddie and six, and so far it had been an enjoyable experience for... some of them.

The loud music played as it could be heard over the horizon. The music was followed by the roaring of Deuces engine and Twilight's screaming. Rainbow followed directly above the roaring car. Both speeds matched at the moment, and both were frustrated to see who could win this battle of speed.

"SLOW DOWN EDDIE! YOU'RE GOING TO HIT SOMETHING!" Twilight yelled over the reeving engine.

"HELL NO! RAINBOW NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT THE SPEED OF METAL LOOKS LIKE!" Eddie yelled as his car flew into the air for the third time in a row.

"YEAH TWILIGHT! LET'S HAVE A LITTLE FUN FOR ONCE!" Rainbow yelled as she flew close to the car.

"TREE!" Twilight yelled as she pointed forward. Eddie could care less, he just slammed into it like the last ten trees and quickly brought it down with force.

"FUCK YEAH! LETS SEE YOU DO THAT RAINBOW!" Eddie yelled as he waved his axe in the air.

"NO! BUT CAN YOU FLY?!"

"NO! BUT CAN YOU DO THIS?!" Eddie said as he launched lighting at the nearby tree, exploding it into several pieces in a beautiful blue flash.

"HOW DOES THAT WORK?!" Twilight yelled in awe of what just happened.

"HECK YEAH I CAN!" Rainbow yelled as she kicked a nearby cloud, launching her own lightning, but not hitting anything.

"YOUR AIM SUCKS SHIT!"

"OH YEAH! I CAN STILL FLY!" Rainbow snapped back as she started to get ahead of Deuce.

"OH FUCK NO!" Eddie then flipped a small plastic cover that covered a large red button. Suddenly, with a lurch forward, Eddie and Twilight stuck to their seats as a trail of fire followed them stride for stride.

They easily surpassed Rainbow, she could not help but look in awe as the flames of Eddies tires illuminated the already bright day. Eddie wove his arm in the air as he head banged to the increasing speed and music volume. Rainbow began to slow as she could not help but feel defeated by the near ear shattering speed Eddie was going at. To her dismay, Celestia had told her to resist from using her signature sonic rainboom, so all hope was lost.

"FUCK YEAH! I WIN AGAIN MOTHER FUCKERS!" Eddie yelled as he stood atop Deuce.

Twilight could not help but rub her temples, how anypony could handle such loud noises was beyond her "You don't have to scream anymore Eddie. The car and music are already off."

"Oh right, sorry about that."

Rainbow closed in on the pair slowly with a look of defeat on her face "You're lucky I can't use the sonic rainboom, I would have beat you easy."

"Yeah, yeah, complaining at its finest. Hey, at least you tried Rainbow, don't be so down." Eddie said loudly as he placed an arm around Rainbow in an attempt to comfort her.

"Yeah Rainbow, cheer up, don't feel so down about it." Twilight said as she also placed her arm around Rainbow.

"Alright, alright, don't get all mushy on me you two." Rainbow said as she tried to wiggle away from both their grasps.

"Yeah, this is getting weird." Eddie said as he removed his arm from her back. Twilight also removed her arm as she saw the moment being ruined.

"Yeah *Yawn* I could really go for a nap right now." Rainbow said as she stretched her wings.

"I don't think that is an option Rainbow. Remember when Celestia said she wanted to see us all in the throne room at around this time, so I think that it would be best if we get going." Twilight said as she motioned for the two to follow.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot that. What does she want anyway?" Rainbow asked with her brow raised.

"I think it has to do with our little trip to Eddies world." Twilight said as she started for the castle gate.

"Do we finally get to go?!" Rainbow said with joy in her voice. Rainbow had waited long for a moment where she could completely doing whatever she wanted. She knew that Eddies planet had absolutely no laws, so she could do everything that her little heart desires.

"Don't think that just because we go to Eddies world means that you could do whatever you want. We need to listen to Eddie at all times when we go." Twilight said as she gave Rainbow a stern look.

Rainbow then gave Eddie a convincing puppy dog face in an attempt to convince him to her way of thinking. Eddie then gave a slight chuckle "Not even Fluttershy could do that to me Rainbow, and she almost gave me diabetes." Eddie then gave Rainbow a soft punch to her shoulder "But that doesn't mean I will be some sort of controlling dick." Rainbow then popped up with glee as she repeated 'oh my gosh' several times as they walked down the large hallway to Celestia's throne room.

As they approached the room, they could already hear several familiar voices chattering away in the very large room. Celestia sat in her usual graceful position with Luna at her side. The other four sat in front of the sisters with suitcases in their mouths, awaiting the arrival of the man of the hour. They had grown a steady relationship with Eddie over those two days. Not only did he challenge Rainbow to several races, he also talked with Fluttershy about the animals that lived on his planet, with Rarity about their fashion, with Applejack about their farming (which they had none), and with Pinkie about their awesome metal bashes (or in Pinkie speak 'a party').

But the one he had grown on the most was Twilight. Eddie never knew what it was like being the center of attention being a roadie and all, but Twilight would constantly bombard him with questions about his world, spending most of her time either writing down his words or copying what he had written in his journal that he kept tucked in the back of his pants. Eddie of course never let the attention get to his head, he thought that he was not as amazing as they had thought him to be. But deep inside, after this meeting with these ponies, some part of him knew that he deserved some sort of thank you for his last war. But he knew to keep true to the ways of the roadie and keep those thoughts at bay.

"Hey princess, you needed something?" Eddie asked as he and his companions walked into the room.

"Yes Eddie, we have been waiting for you." Celestia said as the rest in the room turned to see Eddie.

"It is about time darling, it has taken you forever to get here." Rarity said in a fake dramatic tone.

"Yeah, yeah, don't get your pantie... I mean tail in a twist." Eddie said as he walked out into the room. Rarity gave a heavy huff in response.

"Sorry to keep you waiting everypony, but Rainbow insisted in one more race before we head off to Eddie's world." Twilight said as she levitated her suitcase from the corner of the room.

"Hey! This one was the closest one you know!" Rainbow snapped at Twilight.

"Alright you two, the race already happened, can we forget it already. I wanna get to see Eddie's world." Applejack said impatiently.

"Thats enough my little ponies. No need to bicker about this, you will be sent momentarily." Celestia said in a soothing voice in an attempt to calm the ponies before her.

"Do I need Deuce for this? I mean, how long would it take to walk?" Eddie asked as he gripped his guitar.

"Yes, it would make things easier for your feet, and my ponies hoofs." Celestia said as she prepared her magic for some strain.

"Alright then, here goes nothing. MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!" Eddie said as he pulled it Clementine from his back and began to shred it in the usual way to summon Deuce. And with the usual flash and loud noise that followed the guitar solo, Deuce appeared in the middle of the room with Eddie already inside and waiting "Alright, three of you on one side and the rest in the middle." Eddie said as he pointed at the chairs.

The six quickly jumped into the seats as they threw their suitcases in front of them in anticipation for the portal to open. "Quickly, I do not know how long I could hold it open. QUICKLY! GO!" Celestia said as a blue flash ran throughout the room. Eddie at that moment hit the gas, quickly speeding into the portal before them.

...

Quickly, Eddie could see some buildings over the horizon "Were the hell are we?"

Suddenly, they could see a man with a large sword that wore a long red coat quickly slashing at another man that wore a long blue coat that used a japanese style blade. Both men turned to look at the speeding car that quickly went into another portal that appeared from nowhere.

"What the hell was that?" The man in the red coat said as he drew two guns from his back.

"We do not have time to worry about this brother, why don't you just accept the power of our father!" The man in the blue coat said as he sheathed his blade.

"Would you shut up about that already?" The man in the red coat said as he started to fire in the other mans direction.

...

"How long is this thing?" Eddie said as he kept driving down the blue tube.

"Celestia said it would take a little bit, but I still have no idea where we were before." Twilight said as she scratched her forehead with her hoof.

"That guy with the big sword looked so cool though! You have to admit." Rainbow said recalling the short moment she saw him fly through the air.

"I must say that the one in blue looked a trifle more regal, more my taste either way." Rarity said as she recalled the swift and regal movements of the random man.

"Not like it matters anyway. We are close anyway." Eddie said as he pointed toward the light that came toward the end of the tunnel.

"Oh goodness, what is that smell!" Rarity said rather loudly as she held her snout with her hoof.

"Ah, swamp shit smell. Never gets old." Eddie said as he took a big whiff of the horrible odor that now permeated the tunnel.

"How can you enjoy this?!" Rarity asked in a loud tone.

"Its the smell of home woman!" Eddie said as Deuce once again flew into the air. The portal quickly closed behind them as they lasted in the air for a few more moments landing in the middle of a group of trees that he remembered from before. The dead jaguar still lay splattered where Eddie had smashed into it a few days before.

"Ah, home sweet home, don't you already love it?" Eddie asked as he bounced from the drivers seat. The rest looked on as they took in their surroundings. Several trees, the rancid smell of blood and swamp shit in one, and a bloody body close by. 'Hope that they got what they asked for.' Eddie thought as he looked around to see if he was in the right place.

"Um... Eddie... what is that?" Fluttershy meekly said as she pointed her hoof in the direction of an oncoming beast. The animal ran at full speed toward the group, they all sat frozen. All except Eddie who got into an unusual stance.

"What are you doing?! Get your axe or something! This thing could kill us!" Rarity yelled as she grabbed onto Rainbow for safety.

"Don't worry, I got this." Eddie said as the animal got closer and closer. Now that it was close, the six in the car could see it had very dark fur and a pale white face, and oddly enough, a chain around its neck. "Come here boy, come here boy." Eddie said as he slightly bent his knees even more.

"Eddie, don't do it!" Twilight yelled from the passenger seat, but it was to late. Eddie was already in the air, ready to do whatever to the beast. The rest looked away from the scene, hoping for the best.

Oh, and one internet for the person who can guess the reference in the story.
