A Grunge Soul

by Jio66623


Lounge Act

I jumped out of the carriage with Thumper and Boomer, dropping my guitars into the dirt road.

"Damn it", I sighed picking them up with my mouth while a grin stretched on Boomer's face and chuckled.

"C'mon, Jio! We are going to be late for our show." , chuckled Thumper.

I trotted to keep up with them. The Beaten Colt was just ahead. The neon sign was of a colt with x's in his eyes getting hit in the head with a brick. Apparently, this was supposed to be one of the hottest clubs in Ponyville. I just couldn't see it. looked pretty beat up, with some bricks falling off...... My kinda place. A big smile stretched across my face. My oily, purple-black mane fell in my face.

I moved in front of the guys as we reached to the back ally of the decrepit club. We told the bouncer who we were and he let us pass to get ready for our performance. I was tuning my baby blue '63 Fender Mustang and my acoustic Yamaha for the local roadies to take to the stage.

I was smoking a cigarette when I looked down the hall and noticed a cyan and rainbow pegasus talking to the local DJ (her name was Vinyl Scratch from what I heard). She had a another friend with her, another pegasus that was yellow coated with pink hair that covered half of her face. She looked very cute. After awhile, I went back in our dressing room to relax. I was nervous.

This looked like a one horse town, so to speak. I could careless if they liked us. So, why was I nervous? Upstairs I could hear DJ Pon3 scratching away getting the ponies pumped up. We do alot of grunge covers from different 90's band. My absolute favorite band was Nirvana, hence the dead smiley as a cutie mark.

The roadie ponies had already taken our gear on stage while I was reminiscing my life.... I was only 24 but I felt like I was 48. Maturity came earlier to me then any of the other kids. It happens when your parents divorce each other. Adderall didn't help either.

But out of all that, came the angst and will to take up writing songs. I haven't performed anything I wrote for fear of being judged..... like I fucking care.

Then I heard it.

"Filly's and Gentlecolts, I'm proud to present, a band all way from Seaddle. GRUNGE POOL!!!!!" , screamed DJ pon3.

We trotted out, grabbing our weapons, so to speak. We were met by applause and hollers and I heard a filly wolf whistle. I looked up and saw the cyan pony with her rainbow mane. She was accompanied by 5 of her friends including her cute shy looking friend. It didn't look like her kinda place to be. I smiled and the rainbow one winked at me.

"We are Grunge Pool.", I said dryly into the mic. "This song is called Lounge Act"

Thumper played out the bass riff, then Boomer and I joined in.

I stated to sing.

Truth - covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd Like to, but it couldn't work
Trading off, taking turns
Don't regret a thing
And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel and I
Wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself, I'll wear a shield
I'll go outta my way to prove I still
Smell her on you

Don't - tell me what I wanna hear
Afraid of never knowing fear
Experience anything you need
I'll keep fighting jealousy
'til it's fucking gone

And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel and I
Wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself, I'll wear a shield
I'll go outta my way to prove I still
Smell her on you

[screaming]
Truth - covered in security
I can't let you smother me
Like to but it couldn't work
Trading off, taking turns
Don't regret a thing
And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel and I
Wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself, I'll wear a shield
I'll go outta my way to make you a deal
We've made a pact to learn from who
And ever we want without new rules
We'll share what's lost and what we grew
They'll go out of their way
To prove they still

Smell her on you
They still, Smell her on you
Smell her on you

The audience went crazy as hell! I never expected this reaction from them. This town must know how to party.

I stepped up to the mic after I got a drink of water. "Thank you. This next songs called Drain You"

One baby to another says
I'm lucky to have met you
I don't care what you think
Unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
I travel through a tube
And end up in your infection

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
I like you

With eyes so dilated
I've become your pupil
You've taught me everything
About a poison apple
The water is so yellow
I'm a healthy student
Indebted and so grateful
Vacuum out the fluids

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
I like you
You

Guitar solo (A derpy-eye pegasus jumped on stage and jumped into the crowd. After that I spit in the crowd.)

Ahh!!
One baby to another says
I'm lucky to have met you
I don't care what you think
Unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
I travel through a tube
And end up in your infection

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
Sloppy lips to lips
You're my vitamins
I like you

Again, the reaction was phenomenal. They looked like I had freed them from the norm of their lives.

"Alright, We got one more song then we're done for the night."

The announcement was met with aww's and boos. They had already taken a shine to us. I was relived..... not that I cared if they liked us or not.

"This next song is About a Filly"

I grabbed my acoustic for this one, it was one of our tamer cover songs.

I need an easy friend
I do, With an ear to lend
I do, Think you fit this shoe
I do, But DO you have a clue?

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night. Free
...I do

I'm standing in your line
I do, Hope you have the time
I do, Pick up number two
I do, Keep a date with you

I take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night. Free


I need an easy friend
I do, With an ear to lend
I do, Think you fit this shoe
I do, But DO you have a clue?

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night,
no I can't see you every night...
free

I do...

As I was finishing up, I looked up at some mares in the front and I winked at three in a group. One of them fainted in the arms of her friends. Then I looked towards the cyan mare. She was screaming up a noise for an encore. I saw her yellow friend staring at me. I gave her a nice smile. She smiled and blushed as well, at least I think she did.

I yelled in the mic, "Thank you all for coming. We will be hear all next week. That will give us time to check out your town for the weekend. Goodnight!" We trotted off stage, into our dressing rooms. There waiting for us was a bottle of apple champagne from a place called Sweet Apple Acres. I never heard of it. Must have been local. Before I popped it off, we got a knock at the door. A bubblegum pink pony kicked open the door with a bunch of filly's and the manager.

"Lets party, everypony!", she screamed.

Everypony filled in the room. The manager gave each of us three hundred bits.... very generous.

"You kids keep playing like that all next week, I'll help you get a contract with Sub Pop."

"Alright, thanks man.", I said appreciatively.

"You kids are going to make me money", he shouted in joy. He disappeared in the sea of mares that wanted our autographs.

Felt like I had forgotten to turn off my swag because we were just drowning the bitches. Thumper started talking to DJ Pon3. Boomer was smoking a cig with some colts and filly's talking about another band he had been with. I was met by the welcoming committee, obviously.

"Welcome to Ponyville, my name is Twilight Sparkle and these are my friend, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, And Fluttershy". She had gesture all the way down to the back to the shy looking pegasus i saw in the audience.

"My name is Jio.", I said as nice as I could be.Then I addressed the purple pony "Let me guess.... your the bookworm of the group. What do you do? Live in a library?"

She had blushed. "Actually, I live in the local library. If you need a book, you are more then welcome to come down a borrow a book."

"I'll keep that in mind" Why would i spend my weekend reading a book? I walked over to Rarity. "Let me guess, your the diva."

She giggled. "Fashionista." She held out her right forehoof.

I took it and kissed it gingerly. "Madame", I said suavely.

"Oh my! Such a gentlecolt.", she giggled and blushed. "Well, I own the local boutique. Please feel free to stop by with your friends and I can take your measurements."

"Oh well, I like my duds, reminds me of home." I looked to my right, looking at Applejack. I held my hove out to her. She shook the hell out of my foreleg.

"Howdy! Pleasure t' met cha! My name is Applejack but ya'll can call me AJ. My family owns Sweet Apple Acres where we have all the apple products you can think of."

"Oh, so you guys made the champagne we have. You must be the work horse of the group."

"Consider it a welcoming gift and thank ya."

"Your welcome and thanks for champagne.", I said. I walked towards Pinkie Pie. Dear Luna, she looked crazy, bouncing up in down.

"Hi! My name's Pinkie Pie, but you already knew that. Ohh, this is my pet alligator Gummy!" She shoved the alligator in my face. Small little thing.

"Oh I see why you named him Gummy.", I exclaimed, noticing no teeth. "So, you must be the party-hardee."

She chuckled. "That's righty-tighty. I'm always throwing party's. I can send you guys invitations. Where are you staying?"

"At some place called The Gilded Mare."

"O, fancy. Well hope to see you around."

"Okie dokie loki", I said.

"Hey, I always say that. We must have reiki.", she exclaimed.

I moved towards the rainbowed-mane pegasus. She was hot. "And who might you be."

"I can't believe you haven't heard of the great Rainbow Dash, future member for the Wonderbolts!", she said proudly.

"I have heard of you! Your the pegasus who pulled off the "mythical" Sonic Rainbow. They never told me how attractive you were."

She giggled and blushed away from me.

Then I had a sudden realization. I thought they looked familiar. "You guys are the are the wielders of the Elements of Harmony. Wow you guys defeated Discord and Nightmare Moon!" Then I noticed the shy pink pegasus. "That means you must be the Element of Kindness."

"Oh, uh, yes but there is nothing special about.", she said. She wasn't used to new people or talking too much.

"What?! A cutie like yourself. Don't undersell yourself. Kindness is a beautiful virtue."

With that she grew red. The rest of the gang and I pretty much hung out til like three in the morning. I waved good-bye to mane six but pulled RD behind and whispered something in her ear, then I licked her ear. She squealed out loud. I loved it. I told her I'd see her later. She knew what I meant. I made it back. Wasn't a long trot. Boomer and Thumper were already back and from the sounds coming from each of there doors, they each had company. Boomer sounded like he had two mares with him. Thumper had a familiar voice with him. It was Vinyl Scratch.

"Way to go, man!!!!!!", I screamed through the door.

Then his pace increased trying to show off his vigor.

I yelled through the door, "See you at noon."

I walked through my door and locked it. I turn around to see Rainbow Dash waiting on the balcony for me. I walk up behind her and start licking her neck. she moaned. Her voice quivering. I started to nibble, she started to moan louder. She turned around and our lips met. Wet and sloppy. I picked her up, standing on my hind legs. Stumbled her onto the bed and our eyes met. I,then, drifted off into carnal bliss.
