Nocturne

Chapter1: The Onyx Pianist

"I really wish Rainbow would stop managing to crash into other pony's houses so much." Twilight sighed as her and the others followed Rainbow Dash's trail of destruction to a quiet house on the edge of a forest.

"Honestly only she could make this much of a mess chasing down a bird." Rarity exclamied as she stepped over braches and other odds and ends strewn around from Rainbow Dash's fly by.

"But that's what makes her so much fun at parties!" Pinkie Pie blurted out in joy in her usual cheery mood.

"Well sugar cube as much fun as she is i'm not really sure any pony would want her crashin' inta their house and destroyin most of their things." Applejack said in Pinkie's direction

"i-I'm sorry guys if I hadn't brought all of you along to help with getting the birds out of that old tree none of this would have happened." said Fluttershy with downcast eyes.

"No it's fine you don't have to apologize so much." Twilight said with a smile "By the way i didn't know you had any neighbors I've been to your house and never seen this house before." she said looking in the direction of the house Rainbow Dash crashed into.

"Well um they moved in a little while ago but I've been to nervous to go visit I'm not that good with meeting new people." Fluttershy said in her usual quiet voice.

"Well I guess we'll be meetin' this neighbor of yours soon." Applejack said in a matter of fact voice.

"Oh Oh i wonder who its gonna be I haven't heard of a new pony lately so if we just met then I'll be able to throw a big welcome party!" Pinkie Pie said happily as she bounced up and down.

Twilight laughed "Pinkie you have such a one-track mind."

As the group neared the house Rarity scanned the house intently. "Not bad not the exact color scheme I would pick but at least their sense for patterns isn't completely tasteless."

Applejack rolled her eyes "Is that all you think about?"

"Why heavens no! I look at architecture too not just color." Rarity said very seriously.

"Will you two shush we're here so lets make a good impression." Twilight said in lecturing voice.

As the group neared the house they heard the sound of a piano through the window Rainbow dash most likely crashed through, they all looked at each other curiously before Twilight knocked at the door. Strangely enough it was Rainbow Dash who answered the door." Oh hey guys whats up?"

"Rainbow! what are you doing did you get the bird?" Twilight asked incredulously

"Ohhh that don't worry Dusk is taking care of that." Rainbow said in a nochalant manner.

"who?" The group asked unusion as they walked into the house.

Rainbow pointed in the direction of a colt playing a piano in the middle of the room "Him."

The room was in a state of chaos due to Rainbow's "flying troubles" there were books and sheet music everywhere but the colt simply played his piano and hummed to the tune and strangely enough the missing bird was whistling along with him. His glossy coat was jet black and he had glasses perched on his nose with a portion of his stark white mane covering one of his eyes. As his tail swung to the tune of his playing you could see the symbol of a grand piano on his flank.

"Uh hello?" said Twilight uncertainly

Suprisingly enough it was Fluttershy who stopped her "Don't, let him play." she walked up to his side and started singing along to the colt's humming, the bird's singing and the sound of the piano.

And as soon as it began it was over and the strang musical group held one last note and then there was silence.

As the group started clapping the colt named Dusk turned around a bit startled "Oh um hello I'm sorry i didn't notice you all come in before i get pretty caught up when i start playing but I guess i should have clued in when someone started singing next to me." He laughed nervously.

"It's alright it was very nice to listen to you play." Twilight said "Well I guess we should introduce ourselves I'm Twilight,the pony with cowboy hat is Applejack, the pink one is well... Pinkie Pie, my oh so fashion concious friend here is Rarity, I'm guessing you've met rainbow dash already, and the one who sang with you was none other than Fluttershy." Rarity was a little huffy at the comment and Fluttershy just looked down at the ground blushing.

Dusk turned toward Fluttershy "You really do have a nice voice" he said with a small smile, the comment only made Fluttershy more flustered, this only made Dusk smile more. He looked up at the group "Oh I forgot, my name is Dusk Desolstice nice to meet you all."

Rarity looked around the room "We're very sorry about our friend's... intrusion we can help clean up it's the least we can do." Rarity said with an apologetic smile. "By the way what was that song that you were playing before?" she asked

"Oh that it was Piano Man by Billy Foal, one of my favorites the bird seemed to like it as well." he said with a smile

Fluttershy looked up from her feet and said "Um T-thank you for your um help sorry about this."

Dusk merely smiled "I should be thanking you this was the best preformance I've had in a while it was fun too." a small smile made its way onto fluttershy.

Twilight looked around the room "Wow we should probably start sorry about Rainbow dash."

"Hey it isn't that messy." Rainbow said in a huff.

Applejack gestured to the room "Sugar cube if this ain't a mess then I don't want to know what a mess is."

Everypony had a laugh before the cleaning began
