Introductions

Canterlot, that’s right fillies and gentle colts home of the snob ponies. I know they consider that a stereotype but all stereotypes’ come from somewhere, right. Well okay maybe not all the snob ponies I lived in the crappy part of Canterlot. Yes, there is a bad part to Canterlot. How do you explain all the guards? No pony who ever lived in a good neighborhood said.

“You know there wasn’t a lot of crime where I lived but the royal guards sound like it would be easy.”

Okay maybe I shouldn’t judge on what their cutie mark is. But then again there isn’t a lot of crime to begin with. Only the occasional “Stop right there criminal scum” and an invasion of Celestia knows what. Oh let’s not forget Discord, but the guards never handled that one now did they”.

Oh Celestia, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Electronic Notes. I’m a Pegasus, My cutie mark is are several small musical notes, my mane and tail are dark brown and very messy, my coat is blonde, and strapped to my back is my synthesizer keyboard and somewhere in my voice box is a computer chip that after years of being in there doesn’t actually hurt. In fact, it’s how I got my cutie mark. A computer chip fell out of a delivery ponies (who was a Pegasus) bag the same day it happened to snow and just like every other little fillies and colts, I was try to catch snowflakes on my tongue. I happen to look straight up with my mouth wide open and thus, my voice became auto tuned. I thought it was cool. What kid doesn’t want to sound like robot?

By now it only comes out when I sing or I raise my voice. I still get teased over it but then again auto tune has been named one of the worse inventions ever. Ask me about my bully problem in school. Right now I’m on my way to the studio. My Manager needs to speak to me “desperately”. Some advice to aspiring musicians, if your manager needs to speak to you “desperately” he’s gonna fire your ass. I’ve seen him do it before to others and now he’s about to do it again.

As I trotted up the road I always get side comments from the snobbish ponies that always need to here themselves talk cause ponies with smaller brains do more talking! Don’t believe, go to a public school, yeah, who’s the idiot now.

When I got there my manager looked really excited so I knew I was already gone while he was already thinking about who to discover next. He motioned me to have a seat at his desk when I took a seat he looked right at me and said

“How are you this fine day Mr. Notes?”

I was afraid that when I give him a response my response would be ‘well it’s about to get worse’ but I looked at him and said “good and how are you sir”

He said “very well, I just received some excellent news.” He took of his glasses looked my straight at me and said “It appears DJ Pon-3 is looking for someone to perform keyboards and vocals for her next tour.”

Since when did DJs need keyboards and vocals? Has electronic music really gone that low to the point that even heavy metal bands use it…?* I consider that last one more of an evolution… probably shouldn’t judge DJs then.

Either than that this was great news I’ve always wanted to go back on tour and with someone famous for once. The bad side is now I’m about to enter the club scene. Those ponies are bat-sh*t crazy. There always the one dude there to sell drugs and the glow sticks and all the drunken ponies. I’m gonna get torn to pieces. I’ll be lucky if I make it out of Canterlot without a bullet in me.

“I’ve arranged for the two of you to meet tomorrow to see if you two are willing to agree on touring together.” He said

I stood up and said “Alright I’ll be there. What time do I need to be at the studio?”

“About 9:30 Tomorrow morning”

Well there goes my late night plans “Alright I’ll be there”

I was sitting alone in my house after making word that I was looking for somepony to provide keyboards and vocals. The reason behind this decision is because is so I can expand some of my music and not rely on recorded singing on records for vocals. That and I get lonely out there on tour. Hey it’s hard being from friends and love ones. What do you think the album homesick was about?** I was snapped out of my thoughts when my best friend and roommate came through the door

“Hey there Tavi. How was your day” I called

“It was dreadful. The pianist player at the grand galloping gala was jealous about the fame I had acquired. It’s not my problem that everypony preferred the cello at the gala.”

“Maybe I could perform next year. They’ll forget about you people for sure.” I wasn’t kidding. I wanted to see those ponies’ reactions. The look on their faces HA priceless

“Sorry Vinyl but if you’re going to perform you’re going to need a bit class and not perform noises that sound like building tools.”

“HEY! I’ll have you know that my next tour will have keyboards AND vocals.” To those unaware. Octavia and I argue like and old married couple about the music we play. I’m afraid it will get to the point in which she breaks my records and I cut the strings on her cello.

“Ah yes I have heard all about it. Well good for you vinyl. You may be still making those dreaded noise but at least decent people can listen to the other.” Octavia said as she went to her bedroom

Yeah my day was great Tavi thanks for asking

“Oh by the way how was your day.” She called back

Thank you universe

*To all of those wondering. Yes I'm a fan of Asking Alexandria and Attack Attack!
** However my favorite band is A day to Remember

[A/N] well, theres my first chapter ever in me writing fanfiction, hope you enjoyed it leave a comment full of harsh criticism below and a like or dislike. I don't own my little pony

Introducing Eachother

[A/N] I'm not sure, but I think most first writers while writing stories are like "This stories going to be great." But RIGHT BEFORE it gets posted they're probably thinking 'This story is going to suck'. Anyways here is the second chapter. I do not own my little pony friendship is magic

Electronic Notes P.O.V.

I woke up sometime in the morning with usual groggy, 20% more gravity towards your bed feeling because of staying awake with anxiety of the fear that this opportunity that I get tour to with one of the most popular DJ's in all of Equestria could go very wrong. I forgot about it as I rolled out of bed. I couldn't help but notice a few voices out my window. Peeking out I saw what looked to be a griffin and some tough looking ponies doing something that looked like drug dealing.

"What the hell?'' I said out loud on accident.

They heard me because as soon as I said that they looked my way. Instincts kicked in and I dropped to floor. I heard some whispering and soon i was peeking out my window to see if they were still there. Relief came over me as I didn't no pony in sight. That is until I realized that were probably coming for me! Relief turned to panic as i grabbed my key board and jumped out the window of my apartment. I sure hope the nice mare at the front desk doesn't get hurt, you know those Griffins. Fool them once and they'll tear your head off. I landed to the ground, strapped my keyboard to my back and took off in one of the fastest the fastest sprint i have ever ran ever. I cursed my keyboard as it restricted flight when on my back but my thoughts were on getting the hell out of there.

I turned my head after a few blocks to see if I was being followed and saw only ponies who were giving me a weird look like I was running from the purple dragon. However, before I could stop myself I slammed into some pony. My keyboard came loose and fell of my back. I knew trying to use my wings to break the fall was a bad idea cause if I open them, I'm gonna land on my back and break them.

Thankfully my keyboard didn't get broken. That keyboard is the child that I don't have right now(or I don't know I have). As I got up I looked over to see a grey mare on the ground, I trotted over to see if she was alright.

"Are you okay?" I asked

"Yeah I'm fine. I'm more worried about you though. Are you alright?'' She asked.

"Yeah uh.. miss...?''

"Octavia" She answered " Aren't you Electronic Notes?"

Back in school, when a stranger noticed you on the street, you knew they were a stalker, but NOW since i made and album or two I am never afraid of strangers unless the first words they say to you are 'Give me all your bits'.

"Uh yeah. Why?" I responded

"My roommate was talking about you last night. She said she was really hoping to work with you. Especially the stallion with a computer chip stuck in his throat."

I could feel my face get warm and felt a little flutter in my chest. I didn't realize that Vinyl was that eager to work with me that badly. I'm actually flattered by that statement. It's not every day a well-known pony says that they wish to work with you.

"Well sorry for bumping into you and wasting your time sir, But I best be going and I'm sure you need to be somewhere as well." She said as she left

Wait, somewhere to be. Does that means... I took the head turn of shame to the nearest clock and saw.....

9:46.

I was supposed to be at the studio at 9:30.

Defeated, I just stood there and then muttered a very utter

"Buck"

As fast as I could. I quickly scooped my keyboard with my hooves and took off in flight. Now I knew I couldn't go to fast cause I might do a rainboom. Wouldn't want a repeat of the time when i was young and flying so wast to the ground that couldn't stop so I turned to crash into he ground while repeating the lines 'Oh sh*t, oh sh*t, oh sh*t.'

I managed to make it to the studio in a few minutes where I saw two stallions waiting for me. I recognized one of them as my manager but i didn't know who the other was.

"Notes! How are you this fine morning" my manager called to me as I walked in out of breath

Okay I know have a big thing coming up but I'm scarred. He may have had his coffee but he is never this happy in the mornings. I think he got his coffee spiked or something. That, or the moment I leave he's gonna burn the studio down... probably with him in it.

The other stallion looked at me as I gave a nervous smile and asked "Where's Vinyl Scratch at?" I asked.

"Miss Scratch is running late unfortunately." The stallion, who I assume is her manager responded

That was good news for me since she's now gonna get the worst of it now if she's twenty five minutes late.

"Care to explain why you were late by the way" I heard one of them ask

I kinda winced at that knowing that no matter what I say, my manager will have less patience with me.

'Whatever you do, don't mention the drug dealing ponies and their griffin kingpin' I said to myself

"I slept in and while running here I bumped into some pony on the way here" I said

"Who did you bump into"

"She said her name was Octavia and the she was friends Vinyl. She mentioned that Vinyl was very interested in working with me" I said thinking back to my thoughts about what Octavia said and how I looked like a lovestruck I idiot. But the main word was love struck.

"Aw yes, Miss Scratch has been very excited to work with the "natural auto-tuned pony" as she called you"

"Is it because the audience is to stoned to not care?" I asked.

He began chuckling and responded "You know what, You might have to ask her"

Vinyl Scratches' p.o.v.

I just don't know where that pony went. I looked at his apartment but only saw a pissed griffin and a few ponies. I have to say though, the mare at the front desk was really nice.

I decided to go to the studio since he might already be there and I was already running late. When I got there I was bitched by my manager while Notes was being bitched out by his manager. We looked two little foal on a play date that are getting a time out or something.

After the lecture, We sat down and introduced ourselves. Besides the usual 'hello there and how are you' only a few things stuck out. I had to point out that not all club ponies are stoned when I perform, Just 1/5 or 1/4. He said that also ran into me roommate, Tavi. She better not have told him on how excited I was to tour with him. That might give away the secret.. uh...I...I mean wrong message to him.

During our conversation I noticed that he kept staring into my eyes as if they were diamonds and he was that one mare from Ponyville. I wasn't sure if he was another pony obsessed with my eye color or something else? What came across my mind made my heart flutter but I tried to ignore

After a few minutes of chit-chat we got set on show times, train times, and where the locations for stops were at. I still can't believe we got set at Appleloosa. Every time I went there I was chased out by an angry mob. It got to the point where I go and visit then shout 'I'M GOING TO DJ AT THE PARTY TONIGHT.' then I full-on sprint to the train.

"So are we all clear" my manager said after an hour or two of discussing everything I just mentioned. We both responded with 'yeses' so we could both get the hell out of there. Even the mangers looked like they were both sick of it.

"Alright then, You two can go run around or whatever, then meet us back here tonight."

[A/N] It's funny. I kept listening to love like woe by the ready set while writing this. Hope you enjoyed this chapter leave a like and a comment. And again I don't own My Little Pony]

Lunchtime in Canterlot

[A/N] Patch, If you have discovered this by now, Yes it's me. Don't tell Grunt. Anyways, I swear when this school year started, I met a nice woman who I was sure would be great at social studies. She's been practically brutalized and murdered by the woman who teaches my history class. Well enough of my problems. Here's the next chapter

E. Notes point of view

"Well what should we do now?'' I asked as Vinyl and I left the studio.

"I'm hungry. wanna go get lunch?'' She asked

How the hell could I say no. I ran like hell over here, Stopped midway then flew like hell here. I must be going to hell soon.

"Sure why not" I said as we trotted up the road. She told me about a place about where they had "The best hay fries ever" She better be right. If she isn't, I'm not paying for the meal.

When we got there, we sat at a table outside. For the first time that day I checked the weather. It was a bright and beautiful day. The birds were chirping, little to no clouds in the sky. I couldn't help but sing a part of a song that for some reason always comes to mind despite lyrical indifferences to the subject

"As I stare through these tears, I see your lips start to turn, this world is so un-perfect, this love is so un-worth it"*

It's not the lyrics, but the tune to the song. If you've heard you might know, Or you think I'm stupid. However a voice next to my quickly snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Nice tune there'' Vinyl said

"Crap, I sung that out loud, didn't I?" I said with an embarrassed blush on my cheeks. At least she agreed with the tune though. Hooray for me!

"Don't worry I think only I heard it, but it still sounded nice" she said. My cheeks turned about 20% redder at the compliment. Hey, every pony blushes at a comment from a nice mare. Again the whole 'well known DJ wants to work with you' excuse. After a few light chatting we finally got our food and SWEET Celestia! The fries were amazing. Never again will I ever doubt the words of DJ Pon-3. She speaks words of truth of these hay fries. Okay, maybe a bit overboard but still, kick-ass fries. While we were eating like bucking animals, we were approached by... pause for dramatic effect... SNOB ponies.

"I do say, it appears that Canterlot doesn't have as much class as it used to. Wouldn't you agree?" She said, turning to a stallion next to her.

"Hm, indeed" He said in a fake accent.

Thats right kids. Who needs to be a likable pony when you have CLASS. I don't want to live on this planet anymore. I then ate another fry and quickly took back my previous statement. However they just stood there like scientist observing an animal. Having enough of the stare, I turned and said "Do you ponies mind? We're trying to eat."

"Yeah. Don't you have some stupid garden party or something to go to" I heard Vinyl say to them with a tone of annoyance in her voice.

"Sorry but we simply cannot help but notice the amount of class that used to be in this city has gone down" The stallion said in fake accent with a hint of annoyance. I understand ponies who don't like to be wild and stuff, But this is ridiculous.

"Sorry but if every pony in this town were like you two, This place would suck" I responded

The mare was about to respond when a voice shouted out from across the street

"I for one can agree with the robotic voice pony"

Come on really. I know he may have not known my name but at least have some sense to not nick-name him cause he is a bit different. But then again, maybe he just needed a quick nick-name. I blame the argument. It got me angry

"Surely not every pony should be the same. It is the individuals themselves who make this city you know"

I finally got a good look at the guy. He had a coat as White as snow and a blue mane. He could've bin Vinyls' farther for all knew. But until she says it's her dad. I won't say anything.

"Hmm, perhaps Fancy pants is right." One of them said

He walked over and said "You to shouldn't judge ponies by their lifestyle. Sometimes being wild is what some ponies prefer you know"

I like him. He's a good guy **

"Thanks" I said as the two ponies walked away.

"Oh, It was no problem. Even I grow tired of the lifestyle myself sometimes." He said. ''I'll leave you two to be." And off he went in to the sunset.

"That was awesome." Vinyl said, breaking the silence

"There are some good ponies in this city." I responded.

After that, We began discussing about where we were gonna go for shows.

''Well the first one is here tonight." she said. We had to discus this topic cause I nearly fell asleep during the meeting. Luckily she listened throughout. Although maybe she knew all the stops by heart since she's taking me under her wing... metaphorically.

"What time is the show?" I asked

''Ten o'clock to three o'clock" she responded.

"Holy sh*t"

"After that we're then gonna catch the 3:35 Train to Ponyville." She said, ignoring my outburst. "Any questions?"

"Yeah, what if I get shot?"

"You get more street credit"

Boy that really sounds like it would be worth it, said no pony ever

"Don't worry no pony usually pulls a gun until after the show." she responded

"Well when the shows over. I don't know about you but I am getting the hell outta there." I said in a quarter joking, the rest I'm bucking serious tone of voice.

"Well don't worry, we need to hurry to the train any way" she responded with a giggle.

After a few minutes we decided to leave after I paid the bill. After a bit of running around we decided to go to the park. While there, we occasionally ran into a fan or two. It didn't help that most of them asked if we were on a date.

We were soon sitting on a bench. Doing some small talk. After a bit of silence, She started playing with my mane for some reason

"What are you doing?" I asked

"Playing with your mane." She answered. "Do you want me to stop."

"No. It doesn't bother me at all." I'm not going to admit it out loud, But I actually like it when some pony plays with my mane. It feels nice. it's one of those little things in life that every pony likes but it doesn't haven't often

As we sat there I looked up and saw that the sun was setting. I think Vinyl noticed because a few moments later she said "looks pretty huh.''

"Yeah... pretty." I said, but I wasn't referring to the sunset. Let's play ' how long will it take for Vinyl to take to to take the hint.' As we watched and Vinyl kept playing with my mane, I took some time to realize what I just said. Did I really feel that way. I mean, I just met her today. Then I thought back to what Octavia said, on how she said that Vinyl wanted to work with me and that she was really excited to meet me.

As time went on and the sun fully set Vinyl stopped playing with my mane and said "we should probably get going."

I nodded in agreement and scratched my mane to get the feeling of Vinyls hooves out

We trotted through the streets until we got to the studio. We both saw our managers waiting for us one them stepped out to greet us and said

"Good. You're both here, come."***

* That little 'tune that Notes sang was the chorus to 'Bro, Ashley's Here' by Attack Attack!

** A reference to the 'good guy fancy pants' meme

*** Same line spoken by the butcher at the beginning of 'Resident Evil 5"

[A/N] Hope you enjoyed it. might work a bit on the next chapter since the sound of rain may keep me awake. If the streets flood, I'm not walking to school. My mom said to call her if they do. I said i would "call her." Also, listening to music while writing is a genius idea. Just type to the beat. Anyway I don not own My little pony or any of the reference's I made while righting this. They belong to their respected owners.

Day 1: Canterlot

[A/N] There was a rainbow at after school. My day got twenty percent cooler. Next chapter.

E. Notes point of view

This. Sucks. I haven't been in the this place for ten minutes and already, (1) Two drunk mares started bugging me, claiming that they've seen me before. I tried to get them to say my name without slurring. They couldn't make it past the second syllable. (2) Some pony spilled their drink on me. It didn't bug me that much, but when I finally caught to Vinyl, She gave me the "You've been partying'' look. (3) And finally, Some pony kept offering me drugs and kept telling me that if don't give some bits his boss will "Kill him.'' I won't begin to mention the ponies asking about my auto-tuned voice.

So after a few minutes of the dreadful wait of anticipation. We were finally called on to stage.. more like DJ booth. Yeah, lets call it that. As we got up there I heard people chanting both our names of excitement. I think they were just being nice since I have never been in this club in my entire life. Soon we got to our stands. My keyboard was already there. Thank Celestia. I was afraid that that drug seller was going to steal it.

"Hello Canterlot!'' I heard Vinyl shout into her microphone.

I couldn't get in entranced by that voice on stage. All the stoner's would point it out and then yell it out.

"I would like for you all to meet my special guest for this tour"

"Guest?" I responded

"Okay, how about partner in crime" She said

"Better." I agreed and the audience laughed.

"Alright, every pony give a nice welcome to Electronic Notes" The audience hooted and cheered.

"Okay, now that our titles are cleared up. Let get this party started."

6 Hours later...

HOLY SH*T. That was awesome. It was by far the sickest show I have ever done. I never want to go to another show that isn't this ever again. Okay my brain is telling me that its over, shut up about it and get your ass to the train station. I stumbled out the back alley as Vinyl walked out.

"Hey man, You were great'' she said as she walked out. We were both out of breath

"Yeah. Thanks" I responded, to tired to blush about her compliment.

After a few minutes of recovering from that show. I should also mention that at the end we stage dived at the end. Thats why we're so damn tired. Shaking my mane out of my eyes, I stood up and began walked towards the train station. However, at the end of the alley I could see that some ponies were waiting for us. Soon they walked towards us and soon I realized who they were.

"Good evening you two" a Griffin said to us.

"Hi" Vinyl said. While I was shaking violently. "Do you need something."

"What? A griffin and some friends can't go for a walk at night" he said while two ponies at his side gave her a menacing glare. I wanted to stand up and tell them leave them her alone. But hopefully if I don't say something, they may just move along.

Suddenly the griffin turned to me and said "Haven't I seen you before?"

'Sh*t, sh*t, buck, oh buck, oh sh*t. Be cool man' I looked and nervously said "I was just performing in that club back there." Seems legit, right?

"No I meant before tonight." He responded. I was thanking Celestia that our baggage was already at our reserved train cart, cause I have a feeling that we might need to run for the train soon.

"I..I don't recall meeting you before." He began to walk away. I was about to take a sigh of relief when suddenly he turned around looking mad as hell

"NOW I REMEMBER YOU!'' He screamed/roared at us.

"You were that pony who saw us doing business and ran to tell the guards" He was furious at me, but I had a side to this story that I had to say.

"Listen buddy, I wasn't running for the guards. I was running to my work cause I was late"

" Yeah sure it was work. You know what I do to ponies who try to snitch." 'Snitch?' What is this flying kindergarten.

"Me and my boys make sure they never tell another soul about a thing" He said as he showed his claws. At least six inches, I am going to die.

"Any last words?"

I stood there and gulped, then said "My boys and I"

The griffin looked at me as if I just grew a horn out of my head and said "What?"

"It's 'my boys and I' not 'Me and my boys'

"Thats it. I'm gonna f*cking kill you." He said, using the griffin curses.

Vinyl and I took off running. I'm sure Vinyl was mad since she was yelling at me.

"What did you do to piss a griffin off so much?" She said as we kept running.

"He just explained what made him mad'' I shouted back to her

I looked back and realized that the only way to get away was to carry Vinyl fly away, Because that griffin was chasing after us reckless and relentlessly.*

I then ran up to copy my pace with Vinyl. My wings sprung from my back and I flapped them to boost up to her. She turned her head and looked me. Thats when I saw the look in her eyes. Pure terror. She wasn't looking where she was going cause she tripped. Before she could hit the ground, I scooped her up in my hooves and flew towards the train station.

Handing the conductor our tickets and ran in the train. Ignoring our private cabin, we were hiding underneath a table. I told her to be quiet as I peeked out from underneath. I snapped my head back underneath the table as I saw a griffin walk in. The sound of claw steps rang through the halls. Soon the claws were underneath the table. The moment I saw a griffins' head peak down, Vinyl and I screamed. However, the griffin screamed to as if he didn't expect us to react that way.

"Goodness, what frightened you to ponies." He said in a French accent.

"We're both sorry we thought you were some pony else." I apologized to him. He nodded and continued walking off. Getting up from underneath the table, we hurried to our cabin hoping that no pony heard us. When we got in we already saw our luggage in there.

Turning to Vinyl, I asked "Are you okay?''

She responded by pulling me into a tight hug. Using my wings, I returned the hug. It felt... warm and... comforting. She soon pulled away and looked at me and said "Thanks for saving me."

Standing there and blushing, I responded with "Your Welcome"

Taking a look around, both of us realized that there was only one bed. I think our managers are drinking cider somewhere, thinking about how funny they think this is. Vinyl already was in bed so that leaves the option of the floor or the roof of the train. **

"Well I guess I'm gonna sleep on the floor." Before I could get a pillow, Vinyl interrupted my thoughts.

''Hey, we aren't horny teenagers. We're grown-ups." She said while making room for me on the bed.

To tired to think about anything I quickly climbed into bed and closed my eyes. My eyes snapped open when I felt something against my shoulder. Looking down I saw Vinyls' head resting against it.

* Name of the second Asking Alexandria album.

** Reference to the anime Karas.

[A/N] I'm thinking about basing the next chapter around the new episode. I don't own my little pony or the references I made in this chapter.

Day 3: Appleloosa

{A/N} People, Bronies aren't a bunch of trolls. But a lot of Bronies are good at trolling. If Tara Strong can do it, so can we. Next chapter

I was in a Meadow. I don't remember where I came from or why I was there. But I felt like I've been here my whole life. The sky was dark, but the meadow was lit for some reason. The ground was covered in a blanket of snow that was getting thicker as more fell from the sky.

I turned my ahead as if I expected somepony there. There Vinyl stood, coat blending in with the snow, A scarf around her neck, no shades on, her eyes gleaming. She approached me as I finally noticed a soft melody playing in the air. She trotted up to me and pulled me into a hug.

Soon, we were staring into each others eyes. She then began to pull her face closer to mine. As I leaned and our lips were mere inches a part, She then said

"You lied to me!"

"What?" I sat up. The atmosphere of what was a winter wonderland turned into a dark train cart. Looking to my side and sitting up some more, my wings became a kick stand since they wouldn't go down.

"You said I don't cuddle things in my sleep. But kept hearing you mumble something in your sleep, and I woke to find my hooves around you. What if room service came in and saw that? Why did you lie to me?" She said with embarrassment in her voice.

If there was one thing I didn't want to do, it was have her embarrassed and mad at me at the same time. With my kickstand softening, I told her the truth

"I lied so you wouldn't be embarrassed." I said as truthfully as i could mean it.

"But now it's gonna be awkward every time we sleep" She said.

"Listen, this tour won't last forever. Soon, we won't be in the same bed and we will be off on our own again." I knew that sentence seem to make both of us feel bad. We really didn't want to go our separate ways after this. Soon Vinyl looked at me with sadness in her eyes.

"But we'll still be friends right?" She said with sadness in her voice.

I looked at her and replied, "Always."

After getting off the train, I was greeted with a gust of hot air as I stepped off the train and on to the platform of the train station in Appleloosa. We were greeted by a Stallion in a vest, wearing a cowboy.

"Well howdy there Strangers. Welcome to Aaapplelooosaa.'' He said with an over excited voice.

"We don't often get city folk like you around here in these country parts. What's the occasion?"

Before I could give an answer, Vinyl quickly interrupted. "Oh we're just visiting."

I leaned in and whispered "Oh you can lie to him but I can't lie to you."

"Yes, he's a stranger. thats who you should lie to if your gonna lie to somepony."

Point Vinyl. We kept walking through the town. The sun was still beating down on us. We saw the sights of landmarks like town hall, The saloon, The Apple orchard/stampeding grounds. Our guide, named Braeburn, left us. We were pondering on what to do. Vinyl said that there isn't much to do except see the sights. We did that in about twenty minutes flat.

We settled on lunch at a restaurant that looked promising. As we were eating we were discussing on what we were gonna do since we were likely going to get chased out of town when we tried to perform. Our discussion was interrupted when we heard a stallion talking,

"Eeyup, I heard Braeburn asked Little Strongheart to the barn dance thats tonight"

"Really? Huh, good for him. She say yes?"

"Hell, I don't know even know if its actually true?"

I looked over and Vinyl and decided to do what most classy ponies do.

"Madam, Would you like for me to escort you to this dance?" I said in a royal, classy voice.

"Real charming Notes, To bad the auto-tune bad you sound like you had the shakes."

"It got me my cutie mark and it hasn't failed me since."

"Except when Pinkie thought there was something wrong with you and tried to fix it herself."

"Okay but we're getting off topic" I said quickly, "Do you actually want to go with me to the dance?" I said, this time nervously. Hoping that she wouldn't think of it as a date, she looked to me and replied,

"Well since I'm to lazy to get our luggage from the train station, We might as well go." she said in a 'I guess so' tone of voice.

As excited as I was. I realized that I'm going to face one of the biggest challenges a young stallion has to face in his years of getting older.

I had to dance with a Mare.

Okay, I may have been acting like a foal earlier, acting all scared. Its just that I really like her. Everypony is always nervous when they dance with somepony they like.

Didn't really do much for getting ready except cleaning my coat. Didn't have a suit or anything. But it wasn't like it was a regal dance so I didn't care that much.

Soon Vinyl stepped in, there wasn't anything different about her.

"Well how do I look?"

I went with another classy voice response,

"Madam, you look lovely on this fine evening" I said. She started giggling at my impersonation.

"Come on royal doofus. Don't want to be late now do we."

We were trotting through town. It seemed as if everypony who lived here was going to this dance. When we got there We saw things like square dancing and a folk band playing. It was your run of the mill dance. Young colts building courage to to ask a young filly to dance. Married couples already on the dance floor. Then there was me and Vinyl. The couple that wasn't from here and had no idea about the dances they do around here.

Looking around, I noticed Braeburn was dancing with a young buffalo. I didn't know that ponies and Buffalo's got along. The song they played were old western songs that bore the crap out of me and Vinyl.

A slow song started to play. This could be the only chance I could ever do this since living in Canterlot came in handy for one thing. I looked over asked

"Wanna dance" I said to Vinyl. The question seemed to have taken her by surprise since we haven't danced at all. In fact, I'm pretty sure she expected me to ask if she was ready to leave.

"Sure" She said stuttering a bit

I lead her out to the dance floor. They turned down the lights so it has a more 'romance' feel. Vinyl was looking a bit nervous, and I knew what it was.

"Relax. I'll lead."

Thats when I remembered how to slow dance the way my mother taught me. With one wing around her shoulders and a hoof around back. I think Vinyl was shaking a bit from nervousness. I tried my best get her to stop, but she was a mare not a new-born foal.

The song ended faster than expected. Vinyl asked If I was ready to go. We decided to explore outside of town. We found ourselves on top of a hill. Looking down, The town looked beautiful with lights lit and crowds still cheering at the dance.

There we sat next to each other, staring in awe at the town below us. Vinyl broke the silence with a question.

"Do have a song you like to sing when you see something like this?"

Clearing my throat I began to sing,

"Blinding lights where I go. I look down from the top and it's crowded below."*

"I still can't get over that voice" She said.

I was thankful that it was dark so she wouldn't see me blush. I kept staring at her. She looked really cute, I was really hoping tonight would have been the night to tell her how I felt.

"It sure is beautiful tonight" she said.

"Yeah, beautiful." I said looking at her.**

"Um.. Notes" I realized that i have been staring at her for to long. I was about to tell her when I felt the words get caught in my throat.

"Um.. uh.." thats when I heard a train whistle, "Trains here!" I said as I sat up

"Alright we better get down there."

I'm still kicking myself for stuttering. I laid in the bed with Vinyl all ready cuddling me. I was still thinking about how close I was. Deciding to let it go, I put my hoof around her and went to sleep.

* That song was 'Infamous' by Abandon All Ships. Only a matter of time before they got in here.

Day 4: Fillydelphia

Day 4: Fillydelphia

{A/N} Guys, if a dude makes fun of you for wearing skinny jeans. Tell him that their his girlfriends. Also, I cannot wait for the next A Day to Remember album. hash tag ADTR21. Next chapter.

Waking up once more with Vinyls' horn poking my eyes. I actually thought about cutting it off but, 1, I don't want to hurt her. 2, She wouldn't be able to do magic. And 3, If I cut off her horn, what do you think she'll cut off.

Shaking that horrid vision from my head. I laid in bed looking around the cabin. The window were covered so it was a dull gray in the room. I was also listening to the rhythm of the train, Not wanting to leave Vinyl's side, I tried to go back to sleep since my eyelids were heavy, It wasn't going to be falling back a sleep, It was just about resting my eyes, And to stopped being sleepy.

Soon, I heard Vinyl stirring awake. Looking up at me, she smiled an said,

"Good morning" she said in a mockingly happy voice.

"Good morning to you too." I responded, now trying to wake up.

"Come on Sleepy head! Lets get breakfast."

While eating, we were discussing the coming events of the day.

"So where we heading?"

"Fillydelphia"

"Sounds like nothing could possibly go wrong"

"Hey we may have had a few bad runs minus last night." She said.

'Last night was bad for me' I thought

"So don't worry. This is probably going to be the safest stop next to Appleloosa"

"And if it isn't?"

"Then I'll buy you a drink"

"I don't drink."

"Then I'll give you 5 bits."

"Fair enough."

Stepping off the train. The sun was already setting it wasn't to low but in a few it would be dark. Vinyl looked at me with a hint of sadness in her eyes, Before I could ask what was wrong, She said,

"Listen Notes, There are some friends here that I really want to meet and I hate for you to be standing there awkwardly. Maybe you could find something to do on your own."

As much as I wanted to cling to her like a foal with his mother, I knew that I would be standing there hogging Vinyl's time. Perhaps she was right.

"Don't worry about me. If I could survive Canterlot on my own, I'm pretty sure I can make it here."

"Thank you so much" she said as she pulled me into a hug.

"I don't want to go"

"What?"

Sh*t, I didn't mean to say that out loud. Quick, I got to think of something.

"Uhm.. See ya." I said and quickly trotted.

I find myself in the park sitting on a bench. I was fighting back tears wondering why she couldn't take me with her. My inner thoughts were telling me to grow a pair and get over it. While my brain was telling me that she didn't care about me anymore.There was another song I thought about but I wish Vinyl was here to hear it Thats when I realized that I was going through that phase that everypony in love goes through. I realized that I shouldn't be moping anymore. Instead I'm gonna go see what's around town.

1 hour later

So I might have met this guy who said he was a doctor. Which might currently explain why he has me strapped to a table in his basement while he sharpens his tools.* I really would have preferred hanging with Vinyl even if I wasn't in love with her.

The 'doctor' finally arrived. With a big ass creepy smile on his face. Looking at me, he said

"So how are we today"

"Not great. Uh care to explain what the hell you're doing"

"Well you see, I've always wanted to make an accomplishment in medical science. Ever since I've heard of you and your naturally auto-tuned voice, I have always wanted to find out a way to fix that. I managed to get a hold of your x-rays and saw that there is a computer-chip that fused itself in your throat.

"Hey doc, before you decide to slit my throat, did you ever that maybe I don't want the chip out?"

"Oh I'm sorry, but you already had your achievements. Now it's my time for being known as the pony who helped fix your voice"

"Sorry but this will kill me if you do this."

"That's where I will help you. After your throat slit and I quickly take out the chip, I will quickly sew your neck back up."

He then quickly brought out a buzz saw. If I could, I would pee my self right here. I'm scared sh*tless. Soon the buzz saw began spinning. Also the time I began to scream. Thankfully, It appears that my screaming was loud enough for somepony to notice that a buzzsaw was running while I was screaming.

A guard burst forward through the door and began to wrestle with the doctor. I knew that the guard would win since he already had the upper hand and was buff, trained, and a unicorn. Using his magic, he pulled the saw out of the doctors hand. Before the crazed doctor could strike back, the guard hoofed him in the face and knocked him out cold.

Turning to me, he used his magic and undid the ropes that tied my hooves down.

"Sir are you alright?"

"Yes sir. Thank you so much"

"It's what I do sir. Now get out of here"

Nodding, I left that psycho shed** and found my self in a back alley.

You see, here are my problems. 1 I don't know where the hell I am? Last thing I remember was drinking something and waking up. 2 I dont know where the hell to go. And 3 I don't know where the hell the club is where I was set to perform.

Meanwhile at the club

I don't know where the hell Electronic Notes was? We go on in an hour and the crew said they have never seen him ever. I really hope nothing bad happened.

Electronic Notes point of view

I was scarred. It was night when I got out and it was cold. I still had to perform but I wanted to go to bed. I think i'd go with Vinyl rather than a blanket any night.

I was still wandering aimlessly. Some ponies around here were giving me looks that said 'If he ever wanted in on our gang, I'd like him, but I'd beat the sh*t out of him during initiation.' I had to get out of here or I would be jumped. I take it back, lower Canterlot was way better than this hell hole.

I stumbled into a small food mart. Not even caring about the show at this point. That doctor already cut me up a few times to 'prepare' me for operation.

I noticed a group ponies in the store. I could tell that they weren't like the ponies around here. They seem like they were the type of ponies that would always mess around with each other but always be there. Thats when one of them looked at me. I began to leave before one of them called out to me,

"Hey you." A mares' voice called out to me. Turning around, I responded nervously "Yeah"

"You look familiar. Aren't you Electronic Notes?"

I nodded my head.

"Dude my friend Vinyl is looking for you. You were supposed to be at the club an hour ago"

"Do you know where it is?" I asked.

"We were just on our way there. Come on follow us there."

We arrived about five minutes later. I was already close to passing out. There I saw Vinyl waiting for me back stage.

"Oh my Celestia, What happened?"

"No time, lets just do this and get it over with." I breathed out.

On stage Vinyl announced that the show may be cut short due to injuries. What a damn shame cause I barley made it through the first song without collapsing. About ten songs later, I was down for the count. Last thing I remember was a bottle being thrown at me.

I woke to the the sounds of a running train. Looking at my body, I saw that it was bandaged. I looked around and saw that I was alone in the train car. Until Vinyl walked in. The moment she saw me, she sprinted up and hugged me.

"I know what happened, Thats the real reason I didn't want you to come with me"

"So you were protecting me. Why did you lie to me."

"So you didn't go after me trying to help me."

"I just wish that the day would have been with me and you."

She looked at me and said, "I promise next stop, It'll be me and you."

"Promise."

"Promise."

As we were laying in bed, I suddenly remembered something. Leaning down, I whispered in her ear. "By the way you ow me 5 bits." She smiled after that statement.

Day 5: Manehatten

Waking up was the same routine. Get poked by horn, use bathroom, eat, be ready to get off train. When I found out that we were gonna be in Manehatten for this show, I almost flew out of the moving train in fear that the moment off the train I would wake up without out my bag of bits, a few cut and bruises, and a missing kidney.

Even Vinyl and her words of 'You'll be okay' wouldn't stop me from shaking like an earth quake in my bones. When I get on stage tonight.'If I make it to stage tonight.' I will thank Celestia and Luna for blessing me with the gift of not being shot.

It had been hours since we got there and I was till incredibly nervous. Just anypony that looks at me I nearly identify as a criminal. It wasn't until Vinyl had a suggestion,

"Come on you nervous wreck, we need a beer in you"

"But Vinyl, I don't drink."

"Dude, a beer will make a less of a wimp out of you"

"I'm flattered for the lovely compliment." I said sarcastically.

"Just hurry."

We got to the the club that we were going to perform at. Business was slow since it wasn't that late yet. Being dragged over to the bar, Vinyl looked at the bartender and ordered two shots.

"Ok buddy this will help you relax."

"Vinyl, this will kill me before it helps me."

"Just shut up and drink."

A few hours later I was already on-stage. I wasn't drunk but my lunch kept trying to join the party. During the set I couldn't sing at some parts to prevent myself from throwing up.

Somewhere towards the end however, I got a hiccup. Knowing what was coming, I stopped playing, leaned away from my keyboard and microphone. By now I was forcing it and I threw up on stage.

After the set was over, I was feeling better and walked out the back in to an alley with Vinyl.

"Dude are you alright?" she asked concerned. I couldn't blame her for asking. After all, she was the one to buy us the drinks. By now she was probably feeling guilty.

"Let this just be a reminder in why I don't drink."

"Your probably right."

As we started walking, I was trying to remember why the hell i drank in the first place. I know that I didn't order a non-alcoholic and got slipped. Maybe I got talked into peer pressure.

My answer suddenly as something was pulled over my face and my head collided with Vinyls'.

My vision cleared as I starred into the inside of a burlap sack. Shaking my head franticly in an effort to let anypony there know that as was awake, the sack was pulled off my head as I came face to face with a tough looking pony.

"Good to see your finally awake." I heard a voice call.

Looking around some more, I saw that I was in a warehouse somewhere.

"So good to see you again." I faced forward and saw a griffin standing there.

"Oh sh*t, I remember you." It was the griffin that chased us out of Canterlot.

"Yes it's me. I managed to get out of Canterlot. Turns out that the guards were looking for me like you said they weren't."

"That wasn't what I said" Before I could continued a pony slapped me across the face.

"Now sir I'm sure that you are aware of choices that are made in life." I nodded

"Well today, a choice is going to be made by you and you only."

Before I could ask he stepped aside. There a pony was tied to chair like me. Still having the sack on their head, I knew who it was as they pulled it off. Revealing Vinyl, her shades weren't on her head and she was looked like she just came to.

"You see sir a choice has to be made nearly every day. Some benefit others and some benefit you. Today your gonna have to decide the benefits"

He then reveal his claws that seemed to be sharper than last time I saw him. Walking over to Vinyl, who by now was shaking, He place a single claw on her throat and began to trace a line.

"Where my claw is, if I cut here she would die in a matter of seconds. However, instead of her it could be you who has my claw around there throat."

I was sweating bullets. Not because I was nervous about the choice, I was nervous on what death felt like.

"Kill me. Not her" I said.

"Oh how cute. You decide to have yourself killed and not the love of your life. I actually applaud that."

"Just do it"

"Alright i'll make it quick"

Looking at Vinyl, She was nearly in hysterics. I couldn't imagine what was going through her mind. Yet how was I thinking it was gonna be alright.

"Just close your eyes." I said panting with nervousness.

I felt a claw on my throat. Closing my eyes, I waited for the end. The end never came. About two seconds before I was going to get killed. The door burst open and several royal guards flooded in. Fighting began, several guards began to take on the griffin. His pony goons didn't stand a chance. Soon a few guards untied us and told us to run. Before running I noticed Vinyls' shades on a box. Grabbing them, I ran out and way as the sounds of fighting died away.

Running into the train and into our cabin. Vinyl greeted me by pounding her hooves weakly while crying her eyes out.

"Why... why would you do that."

I grabbed her hooves since she was hitting my hard and said,

"Listen to me. I would of had you live any way if those guards have shown up or not. If there is any of us I want to make it out alive." I stopped to take a deep breath and then gave Vinyl her iconic pair of shades.

"Its you."

Looking up at me with tears in her eyes she took the glasses and hugged me.

We then went to bed. Vinyl seems to be holding on to me and never letting go.

I realized that tomorrow is our last show. Knowing that I made never get a chance like this again, I put a hoof under-neath her. Praying that she was already asleep, I leaned in and kissed her head. Judging by the smile, she was probably dreaming something nice.

{A/N} Was in a bit of a rush to finish this. Should be done with this story by the weekend. I don't own My Little Pony.

Day 6: Los Pegasus

{A/N} People, please vote for Mass Effect 3 for 'game of the year' on The Video Game Awards on Spike TV. I'm still a bit pissed that Aliens: Colonial Marines isn't nominated for 'most anticipated' but hopefully Call Of Duty won't get any awards. Next chapter.

I slept in a little later than I was should have. By that I mean three in the bucking afternoon. Soon, Vinyl and I stumbled out of the train and into the cold, unforgiving city of Los Pegasus. I would think that this place would cater to pegasi such as myself. But if you add the clubs, the alcohol, the 'dirty' kind of mares, this city isn't for anypony like me. This place belongs to the bats, it's their country.*

Looking around this place, as my brother would say 'I think i'm gonna die here.'** I haven't been here for more than a half an hour and these mares are all ready giving me a seductive look. I ignored them. Vinyl and I were on our way to the club. We were gonna be interviewed there. Unfortunately it was a separate interview, meaning we won't be together. That sucks since Vinyl refuses to pry her hooves off me since last night.

Now I know why they are separating us. I'm no fool, they're here for her not me. Watch, all my questions will be about the club scene, if me and Vinyl had made out, and if I will ever do this tour again. The answers to those questions in order are: I hate it, I wish (I won't admit it out loud so I'll say no), and hell no I won't. They're ready for me now. After the this I'm off on stage to perform.

Walking in, I'm pretty sure this is a room used for a private dance for strippers. Seeing my interviewer , a pink coated unicorn mare with a crimson mane, was waiting for me when I got in there.

"Good Evening Electronic Notes" she said as I sat down on a nearby couch.

"Good Evening miss...?"

"Oh please, call Chrysal"

Where have I heard that name before.

"So should we get started?"

"Yeah." I said,already a bit nervous.

1 hour later

Don't ask me how in the hell the interview went from the back room to the bar in the front of the club. But it turns out that Chrysal is actually a fun mare. She wasn't as fun as Vinyl but still a blast to hang with. I'm still not getting a alcoholic drink, no matter how much she tried to convince me.

"Aw crap i'm gonna be on stage soon"

She turned to be and said "Well good luck tonight."

"Thanks." I said as I sat up and left. Before I could get to the stage however, she pulled her face to my ear and whispered.

"When you're done up there, I might need to award you for a good performance." She whispered in a flirting tone.

I suddenly got a small migraine that went away almost instantly. The edge of my vision went a little green and I became a bit dizzy. Shaking that off I got on stage. Ready for the best and last show of this tour.

The set ended, as I was walking out I called to Vinyl and asked why she was taking so long?

"I need to grab a few things. Wait for me out back would you. There is something I need to talk to you about."

She said that last part awfully nervously.

"Alright, Don't rush but don't take to long." I called as I rushed out back into an alley. Only lit by a dim light, I looked around and Chrysal walking over to me.

"Oh hey!" I called over to her.

"Hello there handsome." She said in a tone so flirt-filled, it was border lining seductive. Yet why the hell wasn't I as bothered as I normally would be?

"You did great tonight"

"Yeah well.. it was the last show."

"Aww... you're leaving so soon. But we just met." She pouted now seductively.

"I'm sure we might see each other again." I said in hope's that she would have her hopes raised.

"Well before you go, let me give something to remember me by."

By now I was in a trance by her, so what she did next was a dirty trick. She pulled my face to her and kissed me. I was stupid enough to kiss her back

I was snapped out of the trance eventually. But it wasn't until Vinyl walked out and saw us kissing.

"Vinyl" I said in a startled tone.

She didn't respond. Her bag dropped to the ground, spilling contents. Tears were spilling from her eyes as she stared at us. Letting go of Chrysal, i ran over to her to explain but before I could reach her she took off crying her eyes out.

"Sorry bout that, should we continue?"

"Leave."

"Wait what"

Taking a breath, I stood up. Without facing her I said,

"Leave now. I hope I never see you again."

I heard magic being used. Assuming that she was gone, I looked at what was in Vinyl's bag when I saw a picture. It was of me and her taken at Ponyville. Turning it over, I saw writing on the back that read,

To my new best friend, I hope that you can remain my friend no matter what hardships you and I face.

xoxo - Vinyl Scratch

Tears swelled in my eyes. I couldn't believe this. It was going good until I decided to be an idiot and screw everything up. Now she probably is on the train crying. She probably doesn't care if she see's me anymore. I just sat there and buried my face in my hooves and cried

I dozed off. When I looked up, it was early morning. I haven't even bothered to move from my spot. Even if Vinyl haven't left me here, what luck would I have if looked I for her in this city.

I heard somepony approaching me. While I knew it wasn't true, when I looked up I was praying that Vinyl would be there forgiving me. Like hell she would! Instead I saw Chrysal looking at me with a comforting smile. I looked away not even wanting to acknowledge her being there. That was until her eyes and horn glowed green and a ring of green circled the ground and wall around me. They sunk into me as if they were dragging me with them to Celestia know where.

{A/N} People, when you sag your pants and show your ass to the world don't be surprised when everyone kicks it for you. Next chapter.

Opening my eyes slowly, I felt a pounding in my head. I was a bit delirious too. I felt like I had the flu or a cold or something.

Taking a look around and observing my soundings, I saw that I was in a cave.

'What the hell?' I thought. Where the hell am I? I quickly got up, shooked my mane from my eyes and began to trot along to see if there was an entrance/exit out of here.

Suddenly I realized where the name Chrysal came from. She was The Changeling Queen. Why is it that when I suddenly remember things that sound familiar, I'm always to late?

I began to see a light at the end of the tunnel. Picking up my wings, I took off towards it. When I got out I saw nothing but a desert with several rocks. The cave looked like it ran deep underground. Flying above the entrance, I could just make out with what appeared to be Canterlot. I realized that the Changelings were planning an invasion. They had to be, if their queen was in Los Pegasus then Clearly their next stop was Canterlot.

I had to think of a plan to stop them but how? The only thing I could possibly do is do a rainboom (Or as the mare in Ponyville called it. A synte-boom{play on the word synthesizer}). Then the gears in the back of my head began to work. I realized that if I got the very back of the cave and did a synthe-boom, I could easily clear out the entire cave.

Thats when another thought came in my mind, I if didn't get out of there in time then I would surely be killed. But I had to do this. Sure Canterlot sucks but the princesses are there. I can't let them invade and said that I just stood by and watched.

Flying back into the cave, I wasn't ready to just take off on an attempt I had look for and end to the cave. So I flew at a fast but steady pace. It wasn't that hard to see in the cave since probably wasn't that long to begin with.

Turns out that It wasn't that long to begin with. I came to an opening in the cave, when I looked in I saw a hive of Changelings. That's when I heard a melodic voice.

"My children. The time has come. The Time for us to strike back. Ever since the Royal Wedding I have been plotting for us to strike back at Canterlot. Now is that time. I have grown even stronger since the royal wedding."

That's when I looked up towards the ceiling and I saw a cocoon. It didn't take a glance to know who was cocooned.

"Vinyl." I said softly. That might have been the reason why I never saw her again after the incident in Los Pegasus. The Changelings must have gotten her. Even if they didn't she still wouldn't have bothered looking for me.

I analyzed the cave and saw the perfect spot for the boom. A little spot towards the bottom that looked a bit caved in. I also had to time the turn right. The wind would surely blow away the cocoon. I could easily catch Vinyl and fly us out of here.

I began to fly off but before I did I turned to Vinyl and sang a small tune. If I don't make it out the last thing I wanted to do was to sing to her.

'I'll be there watching from way up high. The shadow you can't see with the sun's in the sky. Wondering eyes have no disguise. It's obvious that this love never dies. Never dies*'

I took off flying fast. It wasn't long before I reached the entrance to the cave. I knew what had to be done. I'm gonna miss this world, its snobish ponies, the crazed griffins, and soul sucking changelings.

Taking one last breath, I took off flying towards the end off the cave. Dodging the rocks, I saw the changling were already moving out. Quickening my pace I could already see a cone form around me. Soon I saw the opening. Flying in I realized that I wasn't fast enough to get a synthe-boom going. I was going to have to fly around to get some speed going. That was going to be a problem since the queen was chasing after me.

The game of cat and mouse continued until I saw the cone become sharp. She stopped chasing me and was in a hurry to get out. That's when I found the spot to set it off. Speeding towards it, I could feel like the boom would go off soon. I felt like I was holding a time bomb.

Just before I crashed straight into the wall, I quickly flipped my body around so my back faced the ground. The moment I flipped and took off the boom went off. A loud deafening sound rang throughout the cave. It wasn't even audible on how loud it was.

I could see Vinyls cocoon flying apart and soon she began to fall. I quickly caught her and began to fly out of the cave. She was out cold when I caught her.

As flew through the cave I could see changelings fleeing desperately. I was passing all of them. Suddenly A sharp pain cut my back. When I looked ahead I saw that rocks were being tossed around at high velocity. A simple pebble coulg become a bullet.

By the time I could see the entrance my body was heavily cut and I was already bleeding badly. I was to tired to even fly. Thats when realized that I wasn't going to make it out of the cave. As I slowly slumped to the ground I huddled over Vinyl to make sure she doesn't get hurt.

When I hit the ground I rolled forward, loosing my grip on Vinyl. The boom had passed over us. When it went out the cave it sent whatever changeling that was lucky enough to make it out flying back to the Badlands. A long series of Synthesizer notes rang through the air.

I laid there smiling, I had saved Canterlot and Vinyl. Looking over I saw Vinyl lying there breathing safe and sound.

"I did it" I said out loud. Soon my vision began to fade and I was pulled into blackness.

DJ PON-3 P.O.V.

I woke up laying on a cold, rocky floor.

"Ugh my head" I pressed a hoof to my head. I looked around and saw cave that looked like a giant wind gust went through it. That's when I looked over and gasped when I saw Electronic Notes lying on the ground.**

He was bleeding badly with several cuts on his body. I began to weep. I just couldn't believe after how badly I treated him, he stilled saved me from the Changelings.

"No, please... don't go....please" I could barely speak. I should have known that bitch was the Changeling queen.

"Why... why you..." I said as I buried my face into his chest.

Electronic Notes point of view.

"Where am I?" I called out. It only seemed to echo endlessly.

"Am I dead?"

"Your time is not yet come" I heard a soothing, majestic voice call out.

"Who are you?" So many questions were on my mind.

"Relax young one. You are just resting."

"So this is a dream?"

"Not a dream. An experience."

"So who are you."

"Don't worry about me. Only worry about the living."

"When do I wake up."

"You will awaken from you slumber soon. Don't worry, my daughter shall take care of you."

"Wait. What?"

Soon I felt like I was falling into oblivion.

I could hear birds chirping. I could see rays of the sun shining into the room I was in. I was in the hospital at Canterlot. I could feel numbness on my cuts. I looked and saw that they were bandaged.

I glanced over and saw Vinyl sleeping in a chair next to me. Usually I would let her to sleep but I really wanted to talk to her after a day or two of not seeing her.

"Vinyl wake up." I said quietly. "Come on I'm awake wakey-wakey." I said quietly.

She began to stir around before finally opening her eyes. It what seemed like a split-split second, she rushed over and squeezed the life out of me with the tightest hug I have ever gotten.

"Vinyl *Wheez* can you loosen up"

"Sorry" she whispered to me.

When she looked up at me I could tell that she was crying, I put my hooves around to tell her that everything was alright.

"No I should have never left you there." We both realized that I was in a trance when I was kissed so that was out of discussion

"Vinyl, you were mad. You had every right to run."

"But if I haven't ran you wouldn't be hurt."

"If you hadn't ran then I wouldn't have stopped those Changelings."

She then buried her face into my chest and began to sob more. Thats when I thought of something to comfort her.

'Baby don't cry don't scream. Baby don't cry don't scream. Just close your eyes and pretend this is a dream.'***

She looked up at smiled and said the three words I have been wanting to here from her since I fell in love her,

"I love you"

I this point I wasn't shocked to here it.

"I love you too" I stuttered out.

She then leaned in and I did too. I felt her lips against mine as we finally shared our first kiss. It was a dream come true for me. I felt any pain I had go away. It was just this moment that made me forget about anything I had to deal with later.

"Well well well, what do we have here."

My head jerked towards the doorway. Standing there was both of our managers and Vinyls friend Octavia.

"Who would have thought sharing a bed together would have left to this." He said in a tone made for embarrassing me.

"Yeah I knew it was you who did that. By the way I'm hurting like hell thanks for asking."

"Enough about that. Notes, you're being named a hero for what you did to those Changelings."

I wasn't really in the mood. I wanted to be alone with Vinyl. But alas, I knew that would be a while.

"You know, Ponyville is throwing a party to celebrate. The princesses will be there you know."

"When is it?"

"Today" a voice said. I saw Princess Celestia herself walk into the room.

"Princess it is an honor but I can't make it today."

"Allow me to help." She responded by using her magic. Soon I was glowing the same color as her horn. I could heal any cuts and bruises on my body heal and the feeling of injections gone.

"How's that?" She asked.

"Better." I answered.

"Come along you two." Referring to me and Vinyl. "I shall escort you to the party."

Getting off the bed, I felt good as new. I almost ran out of the hospital. When I did get out I saw the Princesses carriage out in the front with two guard ponies.

"Come on Notes don't want to be late." The princess said as she walked behind me. Vinyl came out after and called to her to just give us a few minutes.

"I forgot to ask but what were you going to tell me at Los Pegasus?"

She giggled and gave out something. It was the picture she left behind at the alley.

"I already told you."

That's when she leaned in and finished the kiss we began in the hospital.

"Come on lets go." I said as I ran to the carriage.

Today was the best day of my life.

The End

{A/N} Hope you all enjoyed this. Will start on my next story soon. Need to write in a 3rd point of view. Till next time, I'm Sol1dF3rr3t and I don't own My Little Pony or the references I've made

Day 2: Ponyville

{A/N} Went to a comic book store looking for the My little pony comic books. I was informed that the were all gone in THREE Days. Man, Bronies are always on top of things man. Next chapter.

I woke up early next morning with something poking my neck. Looking down, I saw that Vinyl had cuddled up to me in our sleep. Thank Celestia that her horn wasn't sharp. I would've died. As much as I enjoyed the cuddling from her, I wasn't just going to lay there. I had to use the bathroom badly. Getting up as quiet as possible, I left our cabin and walked to the bathroom.

On my way back I thought about doing something nice for Vinyl.Not much I could do in the train but at least something to show my appreciation. I thought about breakfast, but you could only get food if you eat in the food cart. Realization hit. She was still asleep. I knew of something I could do.

When I got back, the sun was shining rays through our window. Giving the room an orange glow. I looked over at the clock and that the time was about 7:12. I hardly got any sleep. Yet, I was already up and about looking over I saw my key board. Picking it up and placing it on its' stand, I began to play a soft tune.

I played the notes the way I remembered and began to sing in a soft, low voice.

Good Evening Shuttle bus, Tell me where you're gonna take us. Someplace that I have never been. It's chic transportation to new destination where I leave my reflection on the glass. I'd ask but we don't know how far these interstates go, or how far these city roots go down.*

Soon I felt a hoof on my shoulder and stopped singing to turn around to see Vinyl looking at me.

"Good morning." I said in one of those overly positive voices.

"Thats the problem. It's morning. Why the hell did you wake me up so early?" She said in an annoyed voice

"You know that we're gonna be there in less than an hour." I responded

"Okay. But whats up with the song?" She replied

"Would it have been better to shake you awake."

"Okay fine. Besides, that was a good morning song" She said. "Why the occasion?"

"Just thought I would do something nice for you."

I could see her cheeks turn a bit pink. I sung a song to wake her up. Not kiss her. She must have noticed cause she was trying not to look at me. I decided to break the awkward silence. "You wanna go get breakfast?"

"Sure."

After eating and packing our stuff, We arrived at Ponyville around eight. Looking around, I saw different kinds of ponies going about there day despite early hours. Leaving the station and walking around, I could see that this town was more peaceful than Canterlot could ever dream to be.

"Don't worry about getting mugged. This town is as quiet as it gets." Vinyl said. Most likely referring to the griffin incident last night. Thankfully, that wasn't going to happen.

As we walked around town, it looked like everypony was on there way to something that seemed bad. Looking around, I saw a lavender unicorn with an indigo mane with a pink stripe.

"Hey! where's the fire?" I yelled to her.

"I don't know" she replied. "All I know is that I'm needed down there."

Following her, we made it to town hall to see a white unicorn complaining about the colors of a dress. Women. There was also a rainbow maned Pegasus with a giant wing. Who the hell would just embarrass some ponies. Looking up I saw a blue unicorn with a cape and necklace.

I noticed that the lavender unicorn was trying to talk to her or something. I wasn't paying attention though, my thoughts were else where. I looked around and saw shock on ponies faces when the blue unicorn, apparently named Trixie, pulled the muzzle off of a pink pony and put it in a floating trash can. Not wanting the same fate to happen to me or Vinyl I turned my head and whispered "Lets get out of here"

Vinyl Scratch's p.o.v.

We both took off running. It looked as if everypony in town was at town hall since we didn't see anypony while running. Looking up, I saw Notes running slightly faster. Why couldn't he just fly away. Then I realized that he probably didn't want to leave me behind. We kept our pace up and I kept hearing magic spells behind us.

By the time we were at the edge of town. I looked up and saw that a bubble was forming around ponyville. Electronic Notes was already outside of the town and was yelling for me to hurry. I almost was about to get out before I felt something around my right-hind hoof. Notes reached his hoof out to grab mine. I kept on reaching, but by the time I could feel his hoof, I was dragged back as the bubble closed.

Looking behind me I saw Trixie with a rope being held by her magic.

"Aw, a pony who thought they could out run the magic of The Great and Powerful Trixie."

Soon I saw more ropes being held by magic and I realized what she was going to do. [A/N] Not that you perverts Soon I was completely tied up and carried to town hall where it looked like everypony there was forced into slavery. The were already making flags to hang and thrones being made. She even was forcing a baby to work for her. This bitch is evil. Being held by the ropes around my body and struggling with no success to free my hooves form the restraints, I was presented to a crowd of ponies.

"Citizens of Trixieville" She dictated to the crowd "Look at this mare here." She said holding me up higher and over the edge. "This is what happens when you try to run. You become prisoner and are never allowed out of my sight."

As soon as she finished that sentence, I was falling straight to the ground. Before I could get a chance to scream. I stopped midair and was hanging by a roped tied to the balcony. The ropes were still glowing red. It was creating a burn effect. Hanging there I heard Trixie yelling at ponies to get back to work. When I looked I saw the force field was kept turning red from the area where Notes and I tried to escape.

"Well well, It appears that your boyfriend came back to rescue you." She said in an evil tone.

"He isn't my boyfriend."I said weakly.

"Well lets go visit him, shall we."

I was soon on a carriage with Trixie being pulled by to small colts that were complaining about how mean she was. I would join in on there talk but Trixie was holding a whip above their heads.

We got there and just I expected. I saw Notes pounding the force field with his hooves. I could feel my heart flutter and the sight of him.

"Well hello there handsome." The moment I heard Trixie say that, I wanted to tear her apart. But Notes looked up and said

"Let her go" He shouted back to her.

"I'm sorry but I can't do that.This mare attempted to run. I could let you in, but you would share the same fate as your girlfriend here." I think by now she's just toying with our emotions. I kept shaking my head and mouthing to him not to do it.

"And what if I don't."

"Then your girlfriend here will be given the worse pain anypony can imagine." My heart raced at that. Who knows what she would do. But I kept telling Notes not to do it.

"I won't do it" He said in a stern voice.

"Well than you leave me no choice" she said as she teleported us away leaving the carriage and turning it gold for the foals to carry.

Electronic Notes p.o.v.

I flew up the force field to get a view of town hall. There I saw Vinyl being hung from the balcony of town hall.

"Citizens of Trixieville, look up towards the sky"

Soon all eyes were on me.

"That Stallion manged to escape my clutches. Since her refused to allow himself in. His Girlfriend shall suffer the worse pain anypony could imagine." My heart was racing as magical bonds began to glow a bright blue. Suddenly Trixie casted a spell that made the bonds electrocute Vinyl. I could only watched as Vinyl began to scream out in pain as the bonds squezed tighter and sucked the life out of her.

"No Damnit!" I shouted and pounded the force field. Oblivious to my shouts Trixie continued to zap he with electricity. I kept hitting the force field. Apparently, the force field actually can break. I learned the hard way when an opening appeared and I was shocked by lightning. I plummeted towards the ground as I heard somepony yelling my name.

I woke up to find myself in a bed with several machines hooked to me. 'Oh shi*t' I'm in a hospital. I looked around and saw Vinyl in a bed next to me.

"O good your awake" I heard a mare's voice say. I spun around and saw a nurse with a white coat and pink mane with a nurse cap on.

"How long was I out?"

"Three hours" She responded

I was about to ask about Vinyl when she interrupted me saying,

"She's just sleeping. She is hurt but nothing to serious." She said. i took a sigh of relief that might have been to loud.

"Are you to in a relationship?" she asked.

"No we're not. When is she going to wake up?"

"She should soon" She then left the room. I got off the bed and sat near Vinyl's bed.

"Please be okay" I said. I know the nurse said she was alright but I wanted to hear it from the horses mouth. No pun intended. As if Celestia herself heard me, I saw Vinyls eyes flutter open.

"Vinyl!" I nearly shouted. "Are you alright?"

She gave me an answer by pulling me into a hug as tears flowed out of her eyes.

"Whats wrong? We're both okay right?"

"I'm sorry for this."

"For what?"

"For pulling you into all this" She said as she sobbed on my shoulder.

"Vinyl it isn't your fault" I said, I pulled her face up to mine and said "Just because something happen to you and me doesn't mean its our fault."

She looked at me then buried her face in my shoulder again. "Now I feel worse"

"Why?"

"I just made myself look like an idiot in front of you" she said in between sobs.

"Hey, its okay" I said as I hugged her tighter. "Anything you want me to do?"

"Can you just stay here and hold me please."

"Sure." I said as held her, and patted her on the head, saying that everything would be okay.

We checked out about a few minutes later. As we excited we were greeted by a bouncy pink mare.

"OhmygoshanewponyandmyfriendVinylithasbeensolongweneedapartyalsoIfoundtheseforyou." She said as reached into her curly man and pulled out her shades. She took them and put them on." And you" she said directing her attention to me, "My name's Pinkie Pie and I love throwing parties. Do you like parties?"

"Yeah" I said. I was afraid that this mare would explode like a bomb if I said something different.

"Yay, I heard You to were coming to Ponyville and I decided to throw a party to welcome you, and to celebrate our town being free from Trixie." I breathed in to ask a question when

"Oh and I found your keyboard mister?"

"Electronic Notes."

"Neat name. Anyways, follow me."

We arrived back at town hall to see a magic show by the lavender unicorn with floating animals. I looked over and saw Princess Celestia and two other regal mare.

After watching the magic show. All the ponies minus the two regal ponies went into town hall for the party.

Three hours later

The performance didn't last as long as Canterlot since there was children there. But it was fun overall. Pinkie kicks ass at making parties. We were at the station waiting for our train to arrive. We already said our goodbyes. Those were some of the nicest ponies I have ever met.

We got in to our cabin as the train began to move. Getting into bed Vinyl asked "Hey I didn't cuddle you last night did I? My roommate said it's a bad habbit of mine"

Deciding not to embarrass her I lied and said, "No, I don't think so. By the way where are we going tomorrow?"

"To Appleloosa."

Crap.
