[A/N] Hope you all enjoyed the emo scene from last chapter.
"Sir we have a prisoner escape!" A guard called to his lead officer.
"What! Who?" He said to the guard in shock.
"Just a Griffin sir." The young guard said.
When Electronic Notes opened his eyes the next, he was as excited as a colt on Hearths Warming Eve. But before he could find and kiss his to-be wife, he instead found a note on the night stand.
Went to talk to your brother. Also to make sure you would stay asleep so you don't try to stop me a gave you a good whack in the head. Love you, Vinyl Scratch.
"Typical." He said flatly. He rubbed a hoof to his head and could feel a light, dull pain on the side.
"What kind of wife hits her husband to keep him asleep?" Notes asked aloud.
Twilight woke up from what was the best sleep of her life. She had dreamed that instead of it being Vinyls wedding, it was hers. Her mane was in the style that Rarity had planned for today since there was a sun shower for the ceremony. Rarity found out and decided to try new styles on their manes. She especially was excited for Twilights mane to make her pink stripe zig-zag around on her mane.
Hard Chords' eyes opened as he remembered last night. Looking down, he saw Twilight looking at him.
"Hey, could you not tell anypony about last night?"
Twilight smiled and said, "sure."
That's when they stared into each others eyes. Twilight never noticed the bright crimson in his iris that seemed to give him color to every aspect about him. Hard Chord looked and saw how Twilights eyes glowed as she starred at him. He decided how he felt as he leaned in to her face as Twilight leaned in as well.
Hard Chord and Twilight quickly jumped out of bed when they heard the door knocking.
"It's a public library. Why don't ponies know that you don't have to knock?" Twilight was annoyed by the knock not because it was a public library, but because of other reasons.
They both went down stairs to the front door. When Twilight opened it she was shocked to see a Griffin standing there.
"Hello miss. I was wondering if you have seen a good friend of mine?" He said.
"Uh... what does he look like?" Twilight said. This Griffin had a scar that seemed threatening.
"Like your colt friend right there." He said pointing at Hard Chord. Before Twilight could object, Hard Chord spoke up.
"He's at the hotel. Room E7." He said with a sly grin on his face.
"Thank you." he said and simply walked off.
"Why did you tell him that? He could be a murderer for all we know." Twilight lectured.
"Well if he was then I have one less speech to worry about." He said.
Twilight rolled her eyes. Spike had made breakfast but left a note saying he was going to help Rarity with some last minute preparations. However, as they were eating, the door opened and Vinyl trotted in.
"Hard Chord we need to talk. You need to hear your brothers side." She said out of breath from running here.
"Screw him. My face was tenderized like meat from his hooves." He said.
"Come on please." Vinyl pleaded.
"No." He said blandly.
"Please. For me." The voice was different this time. It was Twilights' voice. Hard Chord knew by now that he couldn't resist her voice.
"Fine." He said getting up.
"Thanks. By the way Vinyl, I didn't know Notes was friends with a Griffin?"
"He isn't." Vinyl said, confused by the statement. "Except-"
Vinyls eyes widened in horror as she realized who stopped by to see her boyfriend.
"We gotta go now!" She said as she ran out the door with the two following after her.
"Why, what's the matter?" Twilight asked as they ran up. Vinyl didn't answered but instead kept running.
Electronic Notes had stepped out of the shower after drying his mane. He shook it and was satisfied with its' look. As he sat down on bed, a sharp tap on the window caught his attention. When he moved the curtain and saw a recognizable Griffin on the other side with his claw raised, his pupils shrank and he ran for cover as the window shattered.
On the ground the three arrived to see ponies fleeing in terror as a Griffin crawled onto the hotel window.
"Oh no." Vinyl said. Hard Chord realized that his brother was in serious danger. Lifting his wings up, he took off towards the room. Twilight reached for him not to go but Vinyl assured her that he knew what he was doing.
The hotel room was trashed as the griffin slithered in and towards a defenseless Electronic Notes.
"Hello old friend. Remember me?" He said as he dragged his claws against the floor.
"Hell yeah I do! I just wish you didn't though."
"Oh well old times can be a bitch sometimes huh. I've spent the last two years in solitary confinement. But I've escaped to visit my new favorite friend." He said with an insane grin
"You've lost it pal." Notes said. The Griffin raised his claw to kill him. Just as he started to swing, a heavy force knocked his head down to the floor.
"Bro run!" Hard Chord yelled. Notes simply nodded and flew out the open window.
By now the rest of the girls along with Caramel, Nova Burst, and Soarin had joined them.
"What's going on?" Applejack asked.
"A crazed Griffin is trying to kill Notes." Twilight said.
"Yeah right." Caramel said. As soon as he said that, Electronic Notes flew out the window. Soon the rest of it burst as the Griffin flew out after him with Hard Chord on his back.
"I stand corrected." Caramel said as the rests' jaws dropped. Soon Soarin and Rainbow Dash readied their wings and flew off to help. Pinkie became scarred by the griffin and clung to Nova for protection.
The battle in the air became intense. Hard Chord was tossed off of the Griffins back and into the ground between Nova and Pinkie, separating the two. Twilight tried to tell him to relax but he got up instantly and flew back into the fight.
The Griffin saw the crowd and had a plan. He charged to the ground but was attacked by Rainbow Dash."
"Hold it Punk. You ain't going anywhere." She said as she tried to pull his wing back.
"Oh really." He said maniacally. He flung his wing forward which sent Rainbow Dash forward and caught her in his claws, pinning her hooves and wings.
"Hey let me go!" She grunted as she struggled in his grasp. Soarin had seen and became angered at Rainbow Dash in pain.
"Let her go!" He yelled as he did a flying kick to the Griffin in the back. The air was knocked out of him as he let go of the rainbow-maned Pegasus. She began to fall since her wings weren't fast enough to react. Soarin had sped up and caught her just before she hit the ground. Being in his hold comforted her as she hugged him tighter.
Soarin made the mistake of pushing the Griffin more towards the ground as he landed and began to attack the ponies. They all dodged and other used magic to avoid his attacks. However his time to strike came as Pinkie tripped in the mini ditch that Hard Chord made when he slid across the ground. He leaped on her and grabbed her with his talons in the same way he grabbed Rainbow Dash.
"HELP!!!" She shrieked as the Griffin squeezed the air out of her. Nova got up and when he saw Pinkie in his hold, he had a fire in his eyes. He used his magic to make a platform staircase and ran up and over the Griffin and dropped a magic blast that knocked him back into the air and losing his grip on the pink mare.
"MY HERO!" Pinkie said as she hugged Nova and kissed his cheek. Nova nearly fainted at the contact.
The Griffin decided that enough was enough and targeted his original kill. Electronic Notes realized that he was being chased and took off into the sky. The Griffin right behind him. Hard Chord chased the griffin up the sky as well.
They were well passed the cloud layer when a cone was forming around Hard Chord. Notes saw and closed his wings shut and fell pass the Griffin. He told his brother to keep flying up. He opened his wings and flew the same altitude as his brother as the Griffin came to his height.
"You can't escape me. I'm more stronger than you'll ever be!" He yelled.
"How about a sonic rock-boom?" Notes asked as he took seat on a cloud.
"A what?" He asked confused.
His answered came as a boom rang out followed by guitar screeches that became more clear as an orange cloud with lighting surging in it spread out. The griffin had been blown away screaming as the air sent him to the badlands.
"Hell yeah man!" Notes cheered at the sight of the boom. The crowd below cheered as well at Hard Chords accomplishment. Rainbow Dash was in tears at the sight, hugging Soarin who patted her head and watched.
Suddenly the Boom had reached a far point. So far in fact that the cloud Notes was on had blown away. Notes tried to fight the force of the wind but was blown back into the Everfree Forest. He heard screaming for his name as he landed on a tree branch that snapped and he landed on a big leaf that he slid down and fell on his right wing that hit a rock with a snap. Notes yelled in pain and hoped it was a twig but knew the truth.
The yelling must have caused a lot of noise cause no sooner that Notes stood and looked up that a Manticore had knocked down some trees and roared in his face.
"Mother bucker." Notes took off in a run with the Manticore slowly gaining on him with trees as an obstacle. Notes had ran like this before but he couldn't fly to get away this time and knew that he could only give the Manticore a chase for its life. But his luck came to him when he saw a cottage in the middle of the forest. But as soon as he yelled for help, he was knocked to a tree by the Manticores tail against a tree and was out cold.
When his eyes opened he was greeted by the most strangest room he had ever been in. The were masks and brewing pots for potions that aligned the walls.
"Good to see you are awake. Tell me why a creature gave chase?" A deep voice asked in rhymed.
"I was knocked down by the sonic boom." He answered. The Zebra only nodded.
"So what's your name?" He asked
"My name is Zecora and I live here in the Flora." She said.
"Do you always talk in ryhme?"
She only nodded and then starred at him.
"Oh yeah. My name is Electronic Notes."
Aw yes. You are to be wed." She said. "Well you better go to town and not let you mare down." She said.
"Right. Thanks for the help." He called as he ran out the door.
By the time he had reached town he could see the ceremony was all ready and waiting on him. Vinyl wasn't seen which worried him.
"Dude thanks Celestia you're here." Hard Chord said as he hurried him into the Library with the other Stallions. He quickly got in his suit. He noticed his wing was bandaged as well.
"Hey bro." Hard Chord said. Notes knew it was an apology."I'm sorry for everything I screwed up on. I shouldn't have left you guys ever."
"I'm sorry to. I knew dad was hard on you but I shouldn't have attacked you."
"Well it's good to see baby brother learned to fight."*
"Now come on." He said as the guys ran out of the library. Spike was riding on Hard Chords back again.
Soon the guys were there at the Altair waiting for the bride to be. The Bridesmaids were already there and welcomed the groom back and wished him recovery.
Soon the music began to play as rain fell from the sky with the sun shining through the clouds. Octavia smiled as she played the tune as Vinyl walked down the aisle. She looked nervous as everypony stood up for the bride. She gasped when she saw Notes wing. As she got up to the end, Princess Celestia cleared her throat and began.
"Dearly beloved, We are gathered here today to..."
Some time later,
"Do you, Vinyl Scratch take Electronic Notes be your wedded husband?"
"Yes I do."
"Do you, Electronic Notes take Vinyl Scratch to be your wedded wife."
"I do."
"I now pronounce you Stallion and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
The two locked lips as the audience cheered and clapped for them.
