It is a lovely day in the city of Canterlot and the Shadowbolts, Lemon Zest, Sugarcoat, Sunny Flare, Sour Sweet, and Indigo Zap, are walking down the street minding their own business, carrying their backpacks on their backs coming from school. They pass by a park until they heard the sound of an electric guitar playing and they stopped and looked and saw a lanky guy with blue hair; a grayish-blue jacket that's zipped up, with a pocket on the right of the jacket (his right) that has a small, thick, red vertical stripe on it and a small picture of a white number twenty-three above the pocket and the sleeves of the jacket each have a thick, red stripe around them that are outlined with thin, white lines; and light brown pants. It is Gorillaz singer, 2D, and he's sitting at a picnic table facing outward playing an electric guitar that's connected to a portable amplifier that's mounted on the guitar case on the seat. He is playing "Starshine"; one of their hits. The Shadowbolts smiled with interest and they all began to approach 2D. Once they stopped in front of him, 2D notices the girls standing before him and he stops playing the guitar and smiled.

"Hello there," he said to the Shadowbolts.

"That was some cool music you was playing there," Lemon said to 2D.

"Well thanks, I appreciate it," he said.

"Are you, like, in a band or something?" Lemon asked.

"As a matter of fact, I am."

"Cool," Lemon said.

"I'm from a band called 'Gorillaz'."

"The Gorillaz..." Lemon said with inspiration. "I like the sound of that."

"We know some girls that are in a band; they call themselves 'The Rainbooms'," Sugarcoat said to 2D.

"Nice," he said. "Maybe I could jam with them one day."

"Yeah, maybe," said Sugarcoat.

"Would any of you girls like to hear me play one of my hit songs?" 2D asked the Shadowbolts.

"Oh, yeah!" said Lemon with stimulation.

"Absolutely," said Sugarcoat.

"Sure," said Sunny.

"Of course," said Sour.

"We love to," said Indigo.

"Great," said 2D. "I'm just gonna sing part of it, I'm not gonna sing the whole thing."

2D began playing the guitar, playing "5/4".

"This is one of our earliest hits," he told the Shadowbolts and then he began to sing.

"Magic for me / Magic make no sound / It good for me / It good for me underground."

The Shadowbolts are nodding their heads to the music.

"Magic on me / Really got me down / Invade the city / It make my heart beat no sound / Beat no sound / Beat no sound / Beat no sound / Beat no sound / Beat no sound."

"And let me tell myself / Tell on."

"She turned my dad on."

"She turned my dad on / Dad on / Dad on!"

2D stops playing the guitar and the Shadowbolts gave him an applause.

"Bravo!" said Lemon with glee.

"Outstanding," said Sugarcoat.

"Great," said Sunny.

"Wonderful!" said Sour with delight.

"Superb," said Indigo.

"Thank you. Thank you," said 2D.

"So, what's your name?" Lemon asked 2D.

"2D," he told her.

"Cool name."

"Thanks. Well, actually, my real name is Stuart...Stuart Pot."

"Oh, okay," Lemon said.

"But you can call me "2D"."

"Okay... 2D," Lemon playfully said.

"How about YOU girls? What are YOUR names?" 2D asked the Shadowbolts.

"My name's Lemon Zest," said Lemon.

"I'm Sugarcoat," said Sugarcoat.

"I'm Sunny Flare," said Sunny.

"I'm Sour Sweet," said Sour as she did a little curtsy.

"And I'm Indigo Zap," said Indigo as she pointed a thumb at herself. "We came from a school called 'Crystal Prep Academy'; home of the Shadowbolts. That's our team name."

"Interesting," said 2D. "It's a pleasure to meet you all."

"Well, thanks for the entertainment, we should be going now," Lemon told 2D.

"Okay. Take care," he said to her and the others.

"Oh wait, before we go, could we have your autograph?" Lemon asked 2D.

"Sure," he said and he took out a pen from his jacket pocket.

The Shadowbolts took out their journals from their backpacks and they opened the front cover and they held them in front of 2D. 2D signs his name on the back side of the front cover of each of the girls' journals.

"Thanks," the Shadowbolts said in unison.

"You're welcome," said 2D and he puts the pen back into his jacket pocket.

The Shadowbolts closed their journals and they put them back into their backpacks. They put their backpacks back on their backs and they all began to leave.

"See ya, 2D. Hopefully we'll meet again someday," Lemon told him as she and the others waved at him.

"Yeah, hopefully. Bye," he said as he waved back at her and the others and then he continued on playing the guitar.

The Shadowbolts left the park and they continued on walking down the street.

"Man, that guy played awesome," said Lemon, about 2D.

"Totally. He also sang good too," Sugarcoat said to Lemon, after hearing her comment.

"That song of his made my heart melt," Sour swooned, placing a hand on her chest.

"I gotta say, he's not a bad musician," said Sunny.

"Can't argue with that," Indigo said to Sunny, after hearing her comment.
