//------------------------------// // Introducing Eachother // Story: The DJ and The Keyboard Player // by SolidFerret //------------------------------// [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]
