The Princess of Song
Chapter 9
Previous ChapterNext ChapterPrincess Sharp Tune is running as fast as her hooves can carry her to Ponyville. When she arrives, she is devastated to see the damage that Queen Treble Measure, her mother, had done.
"No, no! I-it can't be! It's not just Princess Twilight! Everything is lost!" Princess Sharp Tune says, crying.
"There, there, Princess. Come with me. It'll all be OK," says Queen Chrysalis.
"Why are you helping me?" Princess Sharp Tune says, "You're evil! You're possibly working for my mother!"
"Come, child. I have seen many times like these and never wished to change," Queen Chrysalis says, "The ponies that your mother hates will be destroyed right before your very eyes!"
Queen Chrysalis snatches Princess Sharp Tune and throws her into a cell. "Now, what will you do?" she asks.
"Get me outta here!" Sharp Tune cries, "There are ponies who need my help! Please!"
"You? Help them? Well, first you've gotta help yourself, dearie," Queen Chrysalis says.
Princess Sharp Tune uses her magic to set herself free. "I don't have to listen to you either! I'm my own filly and I like that! I'm tired of dealing with useless cunts trying to interfere with my goddamn life! I'm not a motherbucking baby anymore, so leave me be! I'll find them myself if I bucking have to, you shitheaded bitch!"
"What a pottymouth for just a filly. Well, fine!" Queen Chrysalis says.
Going Our Separate Ways (Reprise)
Sharp Tune: Goodbye, I'll catch you later
If only Equestria could forget her
I wouldn't be so misunderstood
Love me or hate me
It's not gonna change
Who I'm meant to be
I'm me
I'll find a way
To bring you back
To turn things around
And get Equestria back on track
To do that
I must find you
I must warn you all I can
I will do what I have to
Anything but killing
So, I will go out of my way
Just to hear you say
"You saved me"
And I'd say "You're welcome"
If I had the courage
But first I must go my separate ways
Do what I came here to do
And leave behind those days
The past is the past
I must move forward
Though it will be hard
I'm not saying it'll be easy
I must go my separate ways
Conquer everything that's happened
Through all these uncertain days
Auntie Celestia
Auntie Luna
Princess Twilight
If you can hear me
Please tell me
I will go my separate ways
And return Equestria
To how it's meant to be
Although it may be hard
I didn't say it was easy
But when I find you
Will I find you?
I have doubts too

"What's that beautiful voice?" Spike asks.
"Yes! I'm getting closer! I can feel it!" Flat Major exclaims.
Find Your Way Home (Reprise) Lyrics
I'll find her
I'll bring her home
No more places to roam
I've found her voice
She can't be far
You're my shining star
Something tells me
That she's here somewhere
That she's getting help here
My sister of mine
I'm getting closer
I can feel it
No need to conceal it anymore
Life has just opened its door!
The ponies wondering what's going on
Makes me know she's here
I know that voice anywhere
My sister
I'm certain I'll find her
And bring her home
I'll bring her home
If it's the last thing I do!
"Flat Major?" Sharp Tune asks, "What are you doing here?"
"Hey, sis. I missed you and wanted to bring you home, so I followed you to the ends of Equestria," Flat Major says, "I can't believe you're in Ponyville!"
"Well, I'm just fine. I can take care of myself. Besides, I have business to tend to here, so get lost," Sharp Tune says.
"I-I just wanted to find you. I've been searching everywhere. Dad's worried sick!" Flat Major cries.
Sharp Tune stops. "Shit! I've gotta get home now!" she cries, "But right after I do something important. I must go to the Tree of Harmony and fix this!"
"We don't even know what the Tree of Harmony can do to reverse this!" cries Flat Major.
"Well, we've gotta try, shithead. Are you coming along or not?" she says in reply.
He sighs. "If you say so, sis. I don't know what for certain it's gonna work."
As the two are trotting to the Cave of Harmony, Princess Sharp Tune says, "Think positive, Flat Major! We'll find a way to reverse everything and get everypony back. Trust me! And if you ever lose hope, put your special talent to use."
Flat Major rolls his eyes. "It's not all I'm good for. Cut it out, Sharp!"
"I'm just saying! Sheesh!" Sharp Tune replies.
* * *
Ten hours later, Princess Sharp Tune and Prince Flat Major reach the Everfree Forest.
"How much longer to the Tree of Harmony?" Flat Major says.
She looks at the map. "The map says just a few miles. We'll be there in no time. How about we do something to pass the time?" Sharp Tune says.
"But you said all hope was lost! What can we do to pass the time if everything we can think about is...." Flat Major says.
"Shh... It's beautiful," Sharp Tune says, putting her hoof to her brother's muzzle as soon as they arrive.
They both admire the Tree of Harmony for a while until they remember just exactly what they were doing there. The siblings have a journey and couldn't be distracted.
"I can't believe it! We made it!" Sharp Tune cries, "This is amazing!" Gasping, she canters over to the side of the tree. "Holy shit!"
Flat Major runs to be beside her. "What did you find, sis?"
"It's some kind of scroll. Maybe this'll tell us how to help Twilight and the other princesses!" Sharp Tune exclaims.
But as soon as she picks it up with her magic and about to read it, Queen Treble Measure stands in front of the Tree of Harmony, blocking them from getting to it.
"Mom?" Sharp and Flat cry, "What are you doing here?"
"First you defy me and then you run away! Sneaking out and going on a journey to undo what I've done! Well, I won't let you through!" Queen Treble Measure says.
"I don't give a damn who the buck you are and why you're trying to stop us, but we're not like you!" Sharp Tune says. She uses her magic to pick up her mother and swing her around violently. She then set her down and throws her down a hole in the cave grounds.
Motivation Song Lyrics
Sharp Tune: This is our life
Flat Major: This is our chance
Both: To break the chains
And go our separate ways
Sharp Tune: This is our chance
To change the course of fate
To set things straight
Flat Major: Equestria as we know it
Sharp Tune: Will be back to normal
Book, tell me what to do
(she opens the book)
Flat Major (Sharp Tune): Go to the Tree of Harmony
(Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Go and believe that it'll work!)
The Tree of life and friendship
(Ah ah ah ah
Life and friendship
Life and friendship!
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah!)
Sing it loud for everypony to hear
(Loud and clear please
Feel the breeze as it goes through me
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah!)
Both: This will work
If we believe it will
Friendship is powerful
Sharp Tune: No more chances worth taking
Watch how destiny unfolds
Watch how it all unfolds
Ah ah, watch how it all
Watch how it all!
Both: Get ready
Get steady
For things to change for the better
Right before our eyes
All to our surprise
Waiting waiting patiently
For the tree to do its magic
Do its magic
Do its magic
Do its magic
Let our hearts combine
With the Elements all
Promise to make Equestria never fall
No more chances worth taking
No more chances worth taking
No more chances
No more!
As we watch how destiny unfolds
Watch how destiny unfolds
Watch how it all unfolds
Have hope
And watch how it all
(The magic crashes all over The Cave of Harmony.)
Ah ah ah ah! -----------------------------------------------------------------------
It worked!
