Chapters This Band Could Be Your Life
“Hey, Flutters!”
Fluttershy turned around to a sprinting Rainbow Dash, catching up with her with a fistful of notebook paper. “Hi, Rainbow,” she said happily, clutching her books in her arms into her chest.
After catching her breath for a moment, Rainbow matches Fluttershy’s walking speed. “Flutters! Check it out! I’ve written a bunch of new, cool songs. We totally have to jam them out after school!” Rainbow said with much excitement.
“That’s great, Rainbow. I’m sure the others would love to try out your new songs,” Fluttershy said.
“Oh yeah! These gotta be the coolest songs I've come up with!”
Fluttershy chuckled at Rainbow’s enthusiasm.
Rainbow has been brimming with ideas on what direction The Rainbooms would be going. The Rainbooms themselves had not practiced any new songs in a while and Rainbow had been hit with inspiration. Although it has seemed to Rainbow lately that the other members in the band weren't as committed as her, she couldn’t wait to show her friends.
These other songs she’s come up with have much more energy than the past. The Rainbooms are going to have to be tighter than ever if they were going to pull them off. It might be a different direction than the rest were used to but Rainbow is certain she can win them over. At the very least, Pinkie might get a kick for the higher tempo.
She was just going to have to wait until after school.
“Wow, these school lunches couldn’t get any grosser,” said Rainbow.
“Hey! Muh family works real hard to serve ya lunch,” said Applejack.
“Maybe they should work harder,” Rainbow said with a laugh. Applejack smirked at her, even if it was at the expense of her family. Rainbow and Applejack were always joking with each other, so neither one ever got upset.
Rainbow always cherished the small moments whenever her and Applejack were alone. She loved hanging out with her other friends, of course, but something about Applejack made her feel a bit giddy.
“So. Fluttershy’s been tellin’ me you’ve been working on some new material fer the band,” Applejack said, snapping Rainbow out of her stupor.
“Oh, right! This new stuff I’ve cooked up is going to be kick ass!”
“Language, Rainbow!” Applejack chastised her with a scowl.
Rainbow sunk in her seat a smidge. “Heh. Sorry,” she apologized, rubbing the back of her neck. “I’m just super psyched to show you guys,” Rainbow said, her spirits picking back up.
Applejack smiled at her. “Well, that’s mighty excitin’. Can’t wait ta hear ‘em.”
With that statement, Rainbow grinned ecstatically.
The rest of her friends joined Rainbow and Applejack in the cafeteria, setting their trays and taking their seats.
Everyone quickly took to their own respective conversations on various topics and subjects. With a tinge of sadness, Applejack turned her own attention towards Rarity, talking about some job they have both applied for.
A soft touch on her shoulder, broke Rainbow out of her thoughts.
“You okay, Rainbow?” Fluttershy asked.
“Huh? Yeah. Of course!” Rainbow said with a fixed smile.
Fluttershy gave her a soft smile and a reassuring squeeze on Rainbow’s shoulder before returning her hand to her side.
Rainbow always cherished Fluttershy’s friendship. The two went back as far as elementary school. Even though they have wildly different personalities, Rainbow being brash and confident and Fluttershy being shy and timid, they have somehow managed to stick together.
“A new student!” Pinkie exclaimed excitedly, practically jumping out of her seat. The whole table seemed to turn their heads in the direction Pinkie was pointing.
A girl with pink hair, similar to Pinkie’s but a darker hue, with the side of her head buzzed and the rest cut short only covering her left eye, sat alone picking at her questionable food with a fork. She fashioned a nose ring on her right nostril and several earrings on each ear. The new girl also wore heavy mascara (too much if someone asked Rarity), and black lipstick. Her appearance seemed to try to repel any sort of potential social interaction.
To anyone, she might be described as a social parasite: a rotten, lousy second-class citizen. To Rainbow, she seems like she is the coolest person in the room. This girl almost personified the vibe Rainbow is aiming for with her new music.
“It’s lunch time and she hasn’t gotten the welcome wagon! You’re losing your touch Pinkie,” Pinkie said. Pinkie Pie was always a social butterfly, making friends with anybody and making anyone feel included.
“Darling, I’m not certain she’s one for, ahem, new companionship,” Rarity suggested, clearly sensing the impressions from this girl.
“Nonsense! Who doesn’t want more friends!” Pinkie said with might, standing up from her seat.
“I don’t know, Pinkie. She seems pretty scary,” Fluttershy whimpered, shrinking in her seat.
“I have to agree with the others, Pinkie. It seems this girl doesn’t want to be bothered, well, by anyone,” Twilight said.
Rainbow bit her tongue. She secretly wanted Pinkie to go up to her and introduce the girl to her. However, it seems that the rest of her friends were on the defensive.
“I think you should go for it,” Sunset said, with enthusiasm that was somewhat absent among the rest of the group. “Who knows? She might look scary,” she said with a reassuring glance at Fluttershy. “But we can’t judge a book by its cover.”
The group nodded their heads in agreement. “I should be ashamed. Of course you’re right, Sunset. For all we know she could be an upstanding person, despite what her fashion sense may suggest,” Rarity said.
“She does look a lil’ funny. But look at me, Ah’m the only one ‘round here with a stetson, heh. Ah’d hope noone thought Ah was just som’ dumb redneck jus’ cuz muh accent and Ah work on the family farm,” Applejack said.
“Yeah, Pinkie! You should totally go introduce yourself and, like... see what’s she’s all about,” Rainbow finally put in.
Pinkie Pie took a deep breath then exhaled. “Wish me luck!” she said as she zipped over to the mysterious new girl.
All the girls watched Pinkie intently. The girl looked aloof as Pinkie gleefully introduced herself. This looked to confuse Pinkie. The group then watched Pinkie through a series of random antics, only to annoy the other pink haired girl. To the girls’ dismay, the other girl looked to scorn Pinkie. Pinkie then backed away unsurely with a nervous laugh. Pinkie then slowly, with a slouched back, walked back to her group of friends.
Pinkie plopped down back on her seat in front of her not so suddenly appetizing food. “Maybe, you guys had the first impression of her right,” she said. “I don’t think she want any friends that are… um… what did she say?... lame?”
“Lame?!” Rainbow exclaimed with her fists slamming the table. “You’re not lame. If you’re lame, that makes me lame!”
“Nice diffusing of the situation Rainbow,” Twilight retorted.
“Ugh, that’s not the point! This… girl insulted my friend. And we are not a bunch of lame-os,” Rainbow said.
“No one insults our friends,” Sunset said.
Rainbow stand ups. “I’m gonna have a word with this new girl,” she said.
“A’right Rainbow, jus’ don’t get carried away, a’right,” Applejack said.
Rainbow looked at Applejack and gave her a confident smirk. “When do I not get carried away?” she said.
Applejack held back an eye-roll but instead showed a wistful grin. “Jus’ get her straight fer messin’ with our friend.”
Rainbow winked at her and proceeded to the mysterious looking new girl, who was still inspecting her lunch.
“Hey!”
The exclamation got her attention, with her heading snapping right towards Rainbow, who was right on the other side of the cafeteria table.
“You’ve got some nerve making fun of my friend!” Rainbow snapped.
“Um, you mean the other pinked hair girl?” she asked.
“Well duh! You didn’t have to be such a… well… uh.”
“A bitch.”
Rainbow gasped then quickly composed herself. “Yeah, that.”
With a smug look on her face she retorted “,then call me a bitch.”
Rainbow gulped looking around the cafeteria and then at the girl in her face. “You’re a… bitch?”
The girl laughed which confused Rainbow. “I’m sorry,” she said, wiping a tear from her face. The girl regained her composure. “Y’know you’ve got some rad hair?”
Rainbow Dash blushed, taken aback. “I… uh…”
“It’s so, I dunno, counterculture,” she said as she smirked again. “Not gonna lie, both you and your ‘friend’ have conviction. I’ll give you both that.”
Rainbow tried to retort but was speechless. She wanted to stick up for her friend but this girl’s backhanded compliment was not what she expected.
“Look, I’m sorry I upset your friend but she’s… I don’t know… came on too strong?” the girl said. “I just want to eat lunch alone then she comes up… and now you,” she observed. “So? Are you supposed to beat me up or something?” the girl concluded.
Rainbow choked up, not knowing what to say. She then regained herself. “Look, whoever you are-”
“Eve,” the girl interrupted, sticking a hand out for Rainbow to shake.
“Yeah, Eve…” Rainbow said ignoring Eve’s hand “...look no one just disses my friend like that, alright. She’s my friend. And all she wanted to do was to introduce you to the school.”
Eve, surprisingly, looked somewhat embarrassed. “I guess you’re right,” she said. “I’m sorry,” she apologized. “Sometimes I forget my ethos.”
“You’re what?” Rainbow, stupidly, asked.
“My ethos. Y’know, being punk rock n’ all?” Eve said as if it was obvious.
Rainbow was still lost. Punk rock ethos?
Eve sighed. “You know, not giving a fuck about what others think and doing what the fuck you want to do,” she elaborated.
Rainbow was astounded by her language but was still intrigued. She still wasn’t exactly sure what Eve was talking about though. “Yeah, totally. Punk. I’m… that.”
Eve held back a laugh. “Do you even know what punk is?”
Rainbow had to think for a moment. “That’s the stuff that was kind of popular in the early 2000s right? That stuff rules… right?”
Eve sighed.
Rainbow then regained her composure remembering her band and her new songs she’s written. “I’m actually in a band.”
That got Eve’s attention as she raised a brow. “Really? What do you play?”
“What don’t we play? Guitar, bass, drums, even the tambourine. And I’m the singer”
Eve, once again, sighed. “What kinda music do you play?”
“Oh,” Rainbow responded with a mild blush. “Well…” Rainbow thought for a moment. “We play kick ass music! And we are the Rainbooms!”
Eve mulled over what she heard. “The Rainbooms, huh? I guess there were the Raincoats,” Eve said to herself. “When you say ‘kick ass’ what do you mean? Like punk? Or hardcore?”
Rainbow wasn’t exactly sure what she was talking, but Rainbow knew for sure without a doubt was hardcore. “Heck- hell yeah, it’s hardcore.” Rainbow then decided at the moment she needed to double down. “You should come by the music room after school. That’s where we practice. You can see how awesome we are,” Rainbow said.
Eve mulled over the idea. “Well… why not? You seem cool, and surely you’ve got some cool things to share.”
Rainbow almost squealed. “Yeah, just be in the music room after school and we can blow your socks off!” Rainbow said with a new vigor.

This Band Could Be Your Life
You're Invited For a Time
The school day is over and now everyone, including the unassuming Eve, is in the music room. Eve sits, along with Twilight, waiting curiously, patient for the “awesomeness” that Rainbow had promised.
Rainbow was uncharastically nervous. They hadn’t practiced any of the new songs she’s written. Her new songs Rainbow is confident in. The stuff she wrote in the past… she was a bit insecure about.
In hindsight, it seemed a little cheesy. Not exactly what she would think of cool; more importantly, not what Eve would think is probably cool.
Rainbow knew the other songs she’s come up with were good enough, but the rest of the Rainboom literally have know idea what these songs are. Even if she tried to improvise, with the faster tempo and tighter rhythm, she doubts even the most proficient musicians could get it right on the first try.
However, Rainbow knows a song that’s upbeat and catchy, but most importantly one that everyone knows: Awesome As I Want to Be. One she would personally call a classic and one she knows that can win over Eve.
There they are in the music room; everyone is in position. Rainbow has given word to everybody else about the song that is about to be performed.
Strings are adjusted, snares are tightened, everything is ready to go.
Eve is looking at the band incredulously.
“1… 2… 1, 2, 3, 4!”
A quick guitar riff starts out with a series of ‘hey’ from the rest of the band, as Rainbow belts “as awesome as I wanna be!”
The riff repeats itself several times before this actual chorus.
Eve gets the idea that Rainbow is full of herself but she can’t help herself to respect the woman that puts it all out there. Someone who is singing about how awesome they are.
Rainbow unleashes into a guitar solo as she bashes about being 20 percent color: whatever that means.
The band comes to a close as Rainbow looks at Eve with deep heavy breaths, obviously giving it her all. She still keeps her gaze on Eve who looks mostly unfazed.
Eve stands from her seat and gives a slow but steady clap. “Not bad Rainbooms. A bit cheesy for my taste, is there anything else?”
Applejack took a few steps forward. “Ah’ve y’know ‘is written by our own Rainbow Dash,” Applejack said proudly.
However, Rainbow Dash shrunk secretly in her own corner.
Eve stands up and weirdly adjusts her jaded belt. “It’s not the worst thing in the world. It can be a lot more corny,” she critiques. “But , there is a lot of energy and, may I say, potential?”
Rainbow nearly squealed.
The rest of the Rainbooms didn’t seem quite convinced.
“I’ll have you know we worked really hard on perfecting our musicianship,” Rarity said, clearly offended. “And I don’t know what makes this….corny?”
Eve sighed. “I’m not saying you guys suck. I’m just saying...well, like you can play something real.”
Before Rainbow could say anything about her new material, Applejack said with a bit of annoyance, “Real? What’cha mean real?”
Rainbow quickly intervened, stepping towards Eve. “Hey, we actually have other stuff we haven’t practiced yet. Stuff I think you’d dig.”
Eve mulled this over.
The Rainbooms were indifferent but Rainbow was in suspense. All Rainbow needed was maybe a week of practice, then she could show Eve how awesome they really are.
“You seem like cool people,” Eve said. Only Rainbow and Pinkie accepted the compliment; the others detested the backhanded compliment. “I’ll tell you what,” she continued saying while standing up from her chair. “There’s this gig tonight, at the Mohawk. Really cool band. I think you guys should go. Might open your eyes a little. At least to what I’m trying to get at.”
Eve headed for the door then stopped before she could exit. She looked back at Rainbow. “Hope to see you there.” With that, she went through the door.
“Ugh, what a shrew,” Rarity said. “And who told her all those piercings had a good look.”
“I agree with Rarity. I’m not sure what to make of this Eve,” Sunset added.
“She was a bit… critical,” Fluttershy said, putting aside her tambourine. “And a little mean.”
“Mean? She’s just being honest,” Rainbow said, setting her guitar away. “We kinda do need to change. That’s why I’ve come up with this stuff. I think it can turn Eve around.”
Applejack huffed. “ And why do ya all of sudden care what this ‘Eve’ thinks anyhow? You barely know her,” she said.
“Look, I think it’d be beneficial for us to see a real band with real people. It can also be a lot of fun.”
The rest of the Rainbooms looked unconvinced.
“I think it can be fun!” Pinkie exclaimed. “Seeing a band boogying off the people. We haven’t done anything like that before. It can be a lot of fun!”
“That’s the spirit, Pinkie,” Rainbow said.
“I don’t know. I’ve never even heard of The Mohawk. Is it in a safe neighborhood?” Twilight asked.
“It’s downtown, right next to that barbeque place and across from that weird museum,” Pinkie said. The others, including Rainbow, looked at her incredulously. “My sister Limestone Pie goes there all the time! Apparently, it’s one of the coolest spots in town!” she said excitedly. “And now I get to go there! Yipee!”
“I guess I am being a little hypocritical, considering my past. Maybe there is something we are missing,” Sunset said. “I used to be a literal she-demon. This Eve girl can’t be that bad. We can't judge a book by it’s cover. And who knows, we might have a good time.”
“I guess, you’re right darling. Maybe we should give this Eve a chance. Even though I'm certain going to the Mohawk is not an ideal situation, I am willing to give this a chance.”
“I’m still scared,” Fluttershy said meekly.
Rainbow went up to Fluttershy, giving her an assuring hand on her shoulder. “Don’t worry Flutters, it’ll all be fine. If anything happens then we can always settle it ourselves, which I doubt will happen, heh,” Rainbow said.
Applejack stepped towards Rainbow. “Ah dunno. Ah’m still not sure, Rainbow.
“C’mon, when have we ever done anything ‘outside’ the rules? When have we ever rebelled against anything?” Rainbow said.
“We never really have to. Everything has been, so far, been for us,” Twilight said.
“You’re missing the point. Ugh,” Rainbow said, slightly frustrated. “Can you guys just do me a favor. A personal favor. I really wanna go to this gig. Not only do I not want to go alone but I want you guys to experience this with me. I think it can be really rad.”
Applejack blushed, rubbing the back of her neck. “Shucks, well for you Rainbow, I guess why not. Might get a kick out of it.”
“Yes! Rarity?” Rainbow said, turning her attention to the fashionista.
“I suppose I can show off my latest dress at this, ahem, ‘Mohawk’,” Rarity replied.
“Fluttershy?”
“If everyone else is going… I’d hate to let everyone else down….”
Rainbow then felt a bit guilty, knowing how sensitive Fluttershy can be. “Actually, Flutters… it’s okay if you’re not a hundred percent comfortable about going. I get it, it might be a bit rough and I’d hate to get you in trouble with your parents and all.”
Fluttershy grinned at Rainbow, understanding that her oldest friend knows her very well. “I appreciate the concern, Rainbow, but I’ll be there for friends, especially one that has been around since childhood.”
“Alright!” Rainbow exclaimed excitedly, with fist bump in the air. “So, Pinkie, where did you say this place was?”
This Band Could Be Your Life
We're Going To The Punk Rawk Show
Everyone was loaded up, uncomfortably, in Big Mac’s old, rusty pickup truck, with Applejack driving. Applejack was struggling with the city traffic as she was only accustomed to the rural streets. “What’n tarnation?!” Applejack yelped, shifting wildly through the crowded downtown Canterlot.
“You should’ve just let me drive!” Rainbow snapped at the stressed out farmer.
“Yer the one navigatin’!”
“I could’ve done both.”
“Not now, Rainbow! Ah’m tryin’ ta concentrate!”
Rainbow huffed as she settled back into the passenger’s seat. She turned her head to face the backseat with the rest of the girls stuffed in the back.
“Um, how much further is the show?” Fluttershy softly asked, sitting on Twilight’s lap.
“Yes, it is rather cramped back here,” Rarity said, sitting on Sunset’s lap.
Rainbow checked the GPS on her phone. “Just a couple blocks away. Oh! Make this right turn, Applejack!”
Applejack promptly turned the steering wheel, sending the girls to the other side of the truck.
“Wheeee! This is fun,” giggled Pinkie.
“Whoa, take it easy there,” Rainbow said.
Applejack gave Rainbow a snide glance. “Well, if ya hadn’ told me last secon’!”
“Heh, sorry,” Rainbow said. She checked her phone again. “It’s gonna be riiiiight, here,” she said pointing to a concrete building with graffiti on the front and THE MOHAWK painted on the side. Fans, noticeably wearing mostly black clothing, were already lined up by the door. A patio was visible on the top of the venue with a few tables and chairs set up.
Applejack parked the truck around the building. All the girls filed out of the crowded vehicle. Most of the girls, aside from Rarity who decided to go with a ravishing short dress, dressed casually per Eve’s suggestion.
“Um, Rarity. Don’tcha think you dressed up… a bit too much?” Rainbow asked.
“Whenever I go out, I make sure I attract the attention of everyone in the room, darling,” Rarity said, clearly offended. “Plus, are we not at a musical showcase? Honestly, I’m surprised the rest of you took that girl’s advice not to dress up. I say why not? Are we not out in the town?”
Rainbow rolled her eyes.
“I’m not sure the attention you’re gonna get is the kind of attention you want, Rares,” Sunset pointed out, sporting her usual leather jacket.
“Hmph, you have your ideals and I have mine,” Rarity said.
“Anyways , let’s get in line already. It already looks pretty long. Don’t want tickets to sell out!” Rainbow said, leading the group to the front of the building.
The doors were open, as the once long line was slowly shrinking as the girls got to the end of it.
“So, who are we seeing again?” Fluttershy asked.
“Eve said the band was called The Undying, I think,” Rainbow replied.
“Undying? Eep , that sounds… scary,” Fluttershy said, cowering behind Rainbow clinging onto her shoulders.
“Don’t worry, Flutters. Eve said they have a lot of… what was it? Theatrics?”
“Theatre?!” Rarity nearly exploded, as the group neared closer to the entrance.
“That actually sounds pretty neat,” Twilight said. “This could be an interesting experience.”
“Ah dunno. What kinda calls themselves the Undyin’,” Applejack said with much more skepticism.
“Oh, zombies! Ghosts! Vampires!” Pinkie exclaimed excitedly, making Fluttershy squeal, gripping Rainbow harder.
“Maybe, we should see for ourselves,” Sunset said, trying to calm Pinkie. “Right, Rainbow?”
“Right,” Rainbow said, peeling Fluttershy off of her. “No matter what they are, or whatever, I’m sure it’s going to be awesome! I mean we’re already here.” Suddenly, the girls were at the opening doors. To their surprise, especially Rarity, the entry fee was only five dollars.
Once the ticketer marked each girl with a black X mark on the upper side of their hands with a thick sharpie, they made their way into the venue. They were hit immediately with the smell of cigarette smoke and cheap beer.
Rarity started to observe her surroundings, instantly understanding what Rainbow and Sunset were trying to say earlier. The crowd, again, dressed in mostly black T-shirts and ripped jeans. Even a few people were decking worn out leather jackets and either literal mohawks or spiked hairstyles. She stuck out like a sore thumb. “I wasn’t expecting the scene to be so, um, uncouth,” Rarity said.
“I was trying to warn you to be casual, but I guess casual for you would still be much,” Rainbow said, leading the group through the audience in an already crowded venue.
Rarity only replied with a hmph , which was lost in the chatter of the patrons.
“Where exactly are we headin’,” Applejack asked, closely following Rainbow.
“Um, I dunno. The stage?” Rainbow guessed. “Pinkie! Do you know the layout of this place? Or if your sister happens to be here?” she asked.
“No idea!” Pinkie replied, somehow being louder than the rest of the mass of concert-goers. “I can text her!” she offered.
“Yeah, do that.”
“Wait, is that who I think it is?” Sunset said, pointing towards the patio area. Sunset suddenly started to take the lead with Rainbow following along with the rest of the girls.
“Who? Eve?” Rainbow asked.
“No, I think I see-”
“What up, Rainbooms!” Vinyl Scratch cried, waving the group over. Vinyl was accompanied by Lemon Zest and, curiously, Octavia. “Never thought I’d see you guys here.”
“I can say the same thing about you,” Sunset said towards Octavia.
“I’m only here because she dragged me here,” Octavia said, pointing accusingly to Vinyl.
“Oh, c’mon, Octy. Y’know you love these gigs.”
“Absolutely not!”
“Then why are you here?” Vinyl teased, earning a blush from Octavia.
“Why don’t you shut up.”
“Anyway, what are you doing here?” Rainbow said, directed to Lemon Zest, ignoring the obvious playful tension between Vinyl and Octavia.
Lemon Zest was caught off guard, not really paying attention jamming to the tunes that were playing through the speaker system. “Who? Me?” she asked, confused.
“Yeah, you.”
Vinyl stepped between Rainbow and Lemon. “Whoa, whoa! She’s cool, Rainbow. Trust me. She loves music just as much as me. Maybe even more than me. Especially, more than Octy.”
“Oh, shut up!”
Lemon took a step towards Rainbow. “Yeah, man. Like, anyone can enjoy a show. And this band is totally rad!”
“Yeah dude, music is, like, about togetherness. Or something like that,” Vinyl said, defending Lemon Zest.
“Right on, Scratch!” Lemon said.
Rainbow felt a bit ashamed. “Heh, yeah, sorry. Just wasn’t expecting to see anyone from school here. Even someone from Crystal Prep,” Rainbow apologized. The rest of the girls felt at ease.
“Hah! Crystal Prep doesn’t define me. As Canterlot High shouldn’t define you,” Lemon countered. “I mean, c’mon dude. I’m into this more than anyone. Even Octy.”
“Oh, you too shut up!”
“Also, no hard feelings about the Friendship Games. Our principal got a little of a hand. Also, sorry Twilight,” Lemon offered a meek apology.
“Damn, even Rarity showed up,” Vinyl pointed out. “Lemon you should’ve invited Sunny Flare so Rarity wouldn’t stick out so much,” Vinyl teased. Rarity felt her cheeks heat up. Everyone else giggled at Vinyl’s joke. “So what brings you guys here. Doesn’t seem like you’re kinda scene.”
“Eve invited us,” Rainbow answered.
“Eve? She used to go to Crystal Prep. Until she got kicked out,” Lemon replied.
“Kicked out? For what reason?” Applejack asked.
Lemon thought about it for a moment. “I’m not sure. Didn’t really know the girl, even though I’m sure she had a kick ass taste in music. I just know she regularly violated dress code and ditched class.”
“Truancy? I thought Crystal Prep had a zero tolerance for that,” Twilight said. The rest of the girls, aside from Rainbow, were starting to get an uneasy feeling from Eve.
“I dunno. She somehow got away with it for a while. I guess it caught up with her. Kinda sucks. Wanted to jam out with her. That’s life I guess.” Lemon shrugged. “Anyways, she’s usually backstage. Know some of the dudes that work here. Don’t know if she’s here tonight, but she told you guys to show up, she’s most likely hangin’ ‘round somewhere.”
The crowd then began to shift towards a certain direction, which Rainbow concluded must be the stage.
“Ah, hell yeah! It is about to go down!” Vinyl yelled as she and the rest of the girls joined the rest towards the stage. The show was about to begin.
