Time: ??? Year: 2013 Days In Equestria: ~Brrrringgg Brrrringgg Brrrringgg~ I heard the phone ring. My face in the pillow. I wake up and see nothing. I lift up my head and look at the ringing phone on my left. I pick it up. "Hello?" I said with a grunt. "Is this Mr.LittleHill?" asked the female voice. "Hell yes. What is the need of calling me at..." I look at the clock... 3:30... "3:30 in the morning?!" "Celestia told me to! This is your wake up call." The voice said. I immediately thought of the firey figure called Celestia... Oh God!! "Thank you for getting me up." I said, not really meaning it. I hung the phone up and twisted my body so my back was on the bed. I stretch and yawn, hearing some snaps and cracks in doing so. "Where the hell am I again? Damn..." I said a loud. I put my glasses on, then I heard knocking coming from the door. "Come in!" I shouted, allowing the person to come in. But it wasn't a person, it was a pony. "Morgan?" The hot pink pony said. Her black mane covering her right eye. She was wearing a maid's outfit... Making me look at her even longer. She carried a covered pan on her back. I looked at her flank, it was covered with her cutiemark, a duster and a guitar. She turned on the lights. I closed my eyes immediately feeling the burn. Wait... I can see colors!! I see a regular pony!! Nothing is in Binary!! I thought in triumphant. I opened my eyes to see the Pink pony nest to my bed. "Hello, Ms...?" "Twix," the pink pony said. "Call me Twix, I'll be your maid for the rest of your stay." I look at her one eye that's visible. It's a striking blue. "Whoa, Twix!! Enough with the act! The last thing I need is a maid, Friends are all I need." I said in response. I'm not a bucking celebrity, yet. I thought, I would never have a maid!! Even if I turn filthy, stinking rich!! "Well... Okay then." She said. Looking at me. "Will you be a friend of mine?" "Sure!! It's my first time here too." I said. What did I just say?! "Well, Welcome to Canterlot!!" "I see you play guitar, judging by your cutiemark." "I do play guitar, and my cuitemark does not lie." Twix giggled. "Well, I play drums, do you have a band?" I ask, looking at my cutiemark... just insuring that the snare drum is there. "I am looking for a band!!" She said excitedly. "I found two singers and one bassist!! We can form a band!!" She started screaming in excitement. "Cool!! Do you have their numbers? I would like to contact them and tell them that we should meet at 13 hundred." I said... getting excited as well. Twix hands me a little sheet of paper and stares at me. She gave me a glare that said I love you. She walks out of the room, leaving me and my breakfast alone with each other. I open the lid and see a stack of Pancakes with syrup in a different cup, with orange juice and coffee in the other. I start stuffing my face and just ate like there was no tomorrow. God does this taste good!! I thought to myself. I ate that breakfast like it will be my last, my stomach stuffed. I pat my bulging belly and look at the little slip of paper. It had three names and three numbers Waves - 1-515-555-9966 Engli - 1-800-555-2596 Fluttershy - 1-333-555-1856 Well, time to star- I thought, then I looked at the clock... 4:30... I'll let them sleep a little bit longer. For now, I need to take a shower!!! I look at myself... Well, I guess, I don't need to wear clothes. I trotted to the bathroom and turn the shower on. I put my glasses on the counter next to the shower and I watched the water drops flow into the drain. I watch the spot where the water and hit and watched the steam rise to the ceiling. I step in and let the warm water run down my back. That feels... SOOOooo Good. I thought. My mohawk fell straight down when the water touched it. Now my right eye is covered like Twix. I look around and see a bottle of Shampoo, Conditioner, and Body Soap. How the hell am I going to use this?! I thought. Do I use the shampoo and the conditioner through my coat or do I just use soap?! I shrugged and took the shampoo and I used my magic to help me cleanse myself. How in the world does everypony do this?! This must have gotten annoying after a while. I thought. I made the conditioner levitate to me and I used that to make my coat soft as hell! I turn off the shower and step out. I slip and fall, hitting my head on the side of the tub. I get back up and feel the intense pain in the back of my head. Ow!! I thought, keeping my mouth shut. I look at the tub and see 0 and 1 numbers printed in blood red on the tub. I find a mirror and tilt it behind my head. I see a area with 0 and 1 numbers oozing down my head. "Well... Talk about extraordinary." I said, "How am I not fainting? Why am I standing when I should be on the ground, crying in pain?" I started to ask myself. I look around for some medical equipment. I found some bandaging and some towels to get this "binary blood" off me. I wipe off the numbers and wrap my head with the bandaging. "Let's call Waves, Engli, and Fluttershy." I walk back into the room to find that my gear was neatly organized and that my breakfast tray is gone. Thank you, Twix I thought. Thinking it was Twix. I put on my mismatching shoes and my fingerless gloves. I put my black hoodie and levitated the hair product to me. I walk back into the bathroom and look at the bandage, nothing had bleed through the bandage. I remove it to see a gash in my head. I look at it and my mane stands up immediately. God, I wish I could do that every morning!! I thought. I left my hair product on the bathroom counter, knowing that I'm never gonna use it this week, I walk out of the bathroom and hop on my bed. I levitate the receiver to my ear and called the first name I saw. Waves. ~Rrrring...Rrrring...Rrrring~ "Hey, Smooth ridin' and still glidin'." Said the loud and proud voice. "Hello, am I speaking to Waves?" I ask. "I'm listening. "I'm Morgan LittleHill, I'm lookin' for a bassist and I heard your the best in town." "Are you askin' me to join your band? Sure, I'm in!" He said proudly. "Awesome, meet me by the Canterlot castles at 13 hundred." "That's a date, see ya then." He hung up. Nice guy. I bet Engli will be like him. UNfortunately, I was wrong. I called him once. Voicemail. Called him a second time. Voicemail. I called him a third time. "Kid, what the hay you want?" He shouted at me. "I'm looking for a-" "Stallion singer? I'm in." "Meet me at the-" "Canterlot castles at thirteen hundred? Got it." He hung up. Well... Onto Fluttershy. I call once, Voicemail. I call a second time. "H-Hello?" said a shy voice. "Hello, is this Fluttershy?" I ask. "Y-Yes... Who is this?" "I'm Morgan LittleHill, do you sing? I heard you like to." "I do sing... Just... I'm incredibly..." "I'm looking for a mare who can sing, I heard you're the best in the business!! Do you want to be a part of my band?" "Not really... But I'll do it for fun..." "You're hired!! Meet me at the Canterlot Castles at thirteen hundred, okay?" "Okay, see you then..." I hanged up. Cool, everypony is in!! I step outside of my room... I look left and right to see nothing but hallways. You have got to be kidding me!! I walk back in my room and checked the time... 6:30... This might take a while... ~Hours Later~ This castle I thought Is for Two Princesses? I probably went through the whole castle!! I finally reached the entrance and stepped outside to get that nice smell out of my nose. I look to see ponies going to place, the castle, to town, to work, To where they needed to be. I try to find the clock... Nothing. I bet I took forever trying to find the entrance. I must have gotten lost at least 10 times! But I'm finally out. Thank god I'm out. Can't wait to see Twix... I think my heart flipped once I saw her. "Hey, Morgan!!" shouted Twix, grabbing my attention. I look to my left to see the pink beauty looking at me. She wore boots with the Red Cross on them (Probably from a Nurse!!). She wore spiked collars and spiked hooflets. Looking like my type of punk girl. "Hey, Twix," I said, "You off work?" "Yeah, Celestia gave me the week off since you came." "Hitting the town? I was planning too, but I don't know my way." "You want me to show you the place? I'll be glad too!" "Pleas-" A mushroom cloud formed in the middle of Canterlot. "Looks like we gotta wait..." "You want me to grab my guitar?" She asks. "Umm... What will it do?" I respond. You can't destroy something physical with sound... or can you? "I don't know... I thought you might know." "Go grab your guitar and amp, I'm gonna go find a drum set and some tools." We both go our separate ways. I headed into town and started looking in buildings to find a drum set. Who... In god's name would destroy Equestria? I thought to myself. I bet it would be Chrysalis, or Discord, but definitely not Sombra... I look into houses, ware houses, abandoned buildings, and still nothing. Then a bass vibrates my insides, a snare could be heard. I stopped sprinting and tried to hear where the noise is coming from. I hear a simple beat coming from the house on my left. I busted myself into the house and charged upstairs to see a light green colt playing the drums. He stops. "Sorry, kid, I need to borrow your set." I said. "Why?" asked the messy haired earth pony. "Your home town is being attacked and I would like to save it!!" I shouted, standing on two hooves, over expressing with the other two. "Okay." He got off the drums and trotted out of his room. Now... How will I get this set outside? I thought. I think I saw a flatbed back at the castle... GOD DA- "Hey, Kid?!" I scream. "Yeah?!" "Can you get the set out? I'll be getting a truck here!!" "I can, I'm the one who brought it here." said the white maned colt. I sprint out of the house and hear... Wubs? The song was Rock and Roll by Skrillex. How did Skrillz get down here? I ran back to the castle, seeing that half the city is destroyed. I made my to the castle and guess what's in the front? The unattended flatbed. "Hell, yes!!" I said, using magic to break off the door. "Whoops... I'll fix that." I climbed in to find that the keys were not in the truck. I started looking in glove compartments, under seats, on the floor, everywhere. I opened the flap that held papers and discs. Buck my stupidity. Papers and discs fell. The discs making a rainbow in the truck, the sun bouncing off them. The paper, falling like leaves. Then I felt metal hit my lap. I pick up the metal object to see keys. "Bingo." I inserted the key and turned to ignition. The engine started and I was ready to go. I put my hoof on the pedal and floored it.
