Sup guys. Sorry about the long wait. I had a bit of writer's block and other things that I needed to attend to.
"Hey kid what do you think you're doing here?" I heard a muffled voice say.
I got up out of bed. It was a little late in the day but regardless I did not like to be woken up. The talking sounded like it came from downstairs. I went down there to see who was talking so loud. I saw Riff, Sonic and, Vinyl talking to some colt Pegasus who looked as if he just got out of Cloudsdale. He had a brown coat and a green and blue streaked mane and tail with a saxophone as his cutie mark. They... well he was talking a mile a minute about last night.
"Whats going on?" I asked half asleep.
They all looked at me and the colt's face beamed with excitement.
"This kid came in here. Said he wanted to see you." Vinyl said slightly annoyed.
The colt ran up to me and was really excited.
"Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh! Its you! Sharp Streak!" The colt said.
"Yeah." I said, still tired. "But who are you?"
"Im Jazz Rhodes but I don't play jazz you see. Im actually a metal head like you. The only reason that Im named that is because my parents were both in a jazz band when they met and they expected me to play jazz but in the class I learned to play guitar." He spoke like it was the most important thing ever. "So what does that have to do with anything you ask? Its simple, I saw you last night at the grand opening and I saw you beat down that Inferno dude and you guys were good and all but you missed a key part in any band, a rhythm guitarist!"
"Woah woah woah hold up kid." Riff said. "So you think you're hardcore enough to be in a metal band, not to mention my backup?"
The colt got a determined face on. "I was born ready."
"Prove it."
Riff somehow got his guitar out of nowhere again, already plugged in and waited for Jazz to set up. Once the two guitarists were ready Riff began playing an epic solo. Jazz surprisingly was able to keep up with Riff's well...riffs. Soon things got crazy. Riff started to go so fast you could see sparks coming from the neck of the guitar. I saw Jazz was starting to get sloppy and missing a few notes. The sound from the amps were so powerful it was making it hard to stand. Eventually Riff finished his solo and they both stood there panting.
"Well boss? Should we let him in?" Riff asked.
I looked at the kid who was now panting from just playing that fast. My answer was the same from the very beginning when I heard his story.
"Kid you remind me of myself when I was just a little colt." I started. "You see when I was in elementary school we put on a little show for our graduation. Now of course everypony had to sing but I sang with a passion. Both my parents and I knew that singing was my talent and I got my cutie mark that day, but it wasn't like this when I first got it. No it wasn't until I had enrolled in a music academy after cloudsdale. While searching for what classes to take I heard some music I had never heard before. It was sharp and aggressive but demanding. I soon found my way to the source of the music and met the three people I will never forget. They had asked me what I was doing there and I simply told them that I heard them playing and was only listening. They said that they were looking for a bassist and needed a new singer. It was fate that I had met them. I soon showed off my prowess and they immediately accepted me into the band. It was then my cutie mark had altered to my current form. You remind me of that story kid. You're in!"
The pegasus jumped and started swooping around the large room cheering in excitement. Vinyl looked at me with a smile and Riff was looking with acceptance. Jaz finally landed and started shaking my hoof thanking me.
"This is so awesome that you let me join, when is our first show? I can't wait for it oh man this is gonna be so cool!" Jazz said.
"We need to practice first before we can do a show. Hey I know what song to try!"
We set up and were ready to perform. Sonic began playing a muted beat and Riff played the opening notes. Jazz was standing ready with his guitar. Vinyl was watching from the floor.
A warning to the people,
The good and the evil
This is war.
To the solder, the civilian
The martyr the victim
This is war
We were all playing the quiet song and got ready to get loud.
Its the moment of truth and the moment to lie
The moment to live and the moment to die
The moment to fight
The moment to fight
To fight to fight
TO FIGHT!
I was screaming the lyrics out straining my voice.
To the right, to the left,
We will fight to the death,
To the edge of the earth,
Its a brave new world from the last to the first.
To the right, to the left,
We will fight to the death,
To the edge of the earth,
Its a brave new world
Its a brave new world
Its a brave new world!
We finished off and ended our little practice session for the day. Riff and Sonic left and Jazz walked up to me.
"Thank you so much for letting me into this." He said.
"Its my pleasure. And besides, you said yourself that we were missing a member." I said with a smile.
"Well still tank you so much Mr. Streak!"
"Please, just call me Sharp."
Jazz left and me and Vinyl were left walking home. We walked up to a hill and rested on a tree we found there. We sat watching the beautiful sunset that Celestia was creating.
"You know." Vinyl started. "After I left Inferno I was worried that I would never find another love. Then you proved me wrong."
"Well you aren't the only one. Before I left The Music Academy I actually fell in love too. It was kinda short lived well because I had to move to Manehatten but in the short time we still did a lot of things together. Sad thing is she dumped me as I was leaving for Manehatten."
"Well we all have baggage, we just have to live with it."
"Yeah well mine doesn't try to kill me."
We both chuckled at my little joke. When the sun had finally set we made our way back home. The stars were twinkling above and the moon shone bright. We soon arrived to Vinyl's house and stopped in front of the door.
"Hey tomorrow we have a dj night so get some rest. Ace said he would help out so we can rest a little easier tomorrow." Vinyl said.
"Great that sounds awesome. I'll see you tomorrow then." I said.
She leaned in and kissed me. "See you later." Then shut the door.
I was walking home when I was feeling like I was being watched. I turned to see only a mare wearing a hoodie leaning against the wall.
"Hello?" I said to the mare.
"Hello Sharp Streak." She said. Her voice eerily familiar.
"Sophie?" I said.
"Yes you remember my name. So I see you found yourself a new marefriend. Forgot all about me now did you."
"Hey you dumped me remember!"
"Oh yes I remember. You were heartbroken. But reminiscing about your sorrow isn't the reason Im here. I just came to tell you about my new coltfriend, I dunno If you know him or not. He's a popular dj, Inferno."
My heart sank. 'Great' I thought to myself. 'My ex-marefriend is in town and she's dating my worst enemy.'
"Well I really must be going. I can't stay out in this cold all night." She said walking into the darkness.
I continued walking home thinking about what I had unknowingly gotten myself into. I finally stood in front of the club and walked in moving towards my room. I got into my bed and was too busy thinking about what I was going to do to fall asleep. Soon after though I eventually fell asleep.
So there is some more plot devopment. OCs are open ONLY for members if the EVIL band. Send away.
