//------------------------------// // Chapter 6: First Romance // Story: Zomquestria: Altenate world // by Cyberponychronics //------------------------------// Over the time of three months, Jay finally gets on his track of what he used to live. Although he doesn't live with Derpy, he has a white car stalled for tuning and upgrading. His live in this Equestria has taken his path. Jay wakes up from sounds in his windmill. He tries to light his lamp, but it doesn't work. ''No flippin' way.'' He grabs his shotgun from his wall and walks outside to see changelings stuck in his windmill. ''Would you kindly move you insect third body part out of my fricken electricity source. While the Changelings hiss at him, Jay loads his shotgun while counting ''One.'' He is done loading, ''Two.'' He points his shottie at the Changelings. ''Three.'' Screwball flies by Jay's house to see him drag deformed Changelings. ''What have you been doing.'' ''Hey Screwy. Shooting Changelings out of my windmill again.'' Over the past three months, Changelings kept coming in Jay's windmill. He's been shooting them out of it the whole time. ''Again?'' ''Yep. What're you doin' here?'' ''Asking if your going to the Gala.'' ''That Galloping Gala thing? Get invitations every year, but I never go. Instead I have a spin off against Vinyl. But that was on the field where you house is now.'' ''But you can go now, right? Lightning would like if you could.'' ''As the matter of fact, I'm goin' to Canterlot.'' Screwball cheers: ''You are going to the gala? I'm gonna tell...'' ''I ain't goin' for the gala. The spin off is held in Canterlot this year.'' He hears crying. ''She was listening, right?'' Screwball nods. Jay makes a sound of Annoyance. Jay and Vinyl are prepping one room with a stage with paint which resembles them. Dubstep vs Trap. Hardstyle vs Dance. Metal vs Shuffle. Tribal. Numbers. That kind of stuff. In the rest of the castle, Twilight is preparing for the Gala together with Flash Sentry. They get scared by a loud sound, which is followed by Jay's voice though a microphone: ''Whoops! Sound check gone wrong.'' ''Perfect Volume for the Spin off.'' he says to Vinyl. As the guests of the gala have arrived, Jay says to Vinyl: ''It's time.'' As Twilight is announcing the same things she does every year, the attention is broken when Jay's voice breaks through everything: ''YO EQUESTRIA, MY NAME'S JAY AND TONIGHT VINYL HERE AND I WILL SHOW YOU WHATEVER MUSIC IS BETTER, TODAY'S PROGRAM IS EXCISION ANDSPACE LASES - BOUNCE VS. DILLON SNAKE AND LIL JOHN - TURN DOWN FOR WHAT, COONE - SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST VS. DAVID GUETTA - MEMORIES AND THE ND OF TONIGHT IS MZ. HYDE FROM HALESTORM VS. CAPTAIN JACK AND EAST CLUBBERS - HAPPY DREAMS RAVE FORTRESS MASHUP! LET'S DO THIS!'' As different music follows one after another, the guests of the gala hear cheering. One of the guests says: ''How in the world could you love this music?'' and she covers her ears. At the end of the music eruption, jay's voice rumbles through the walls once more: ''AND FOR THE FINAL PART! GET READY FOR SOME RUSSIA BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO MOSCOW OUR WAY THROUGH THE CASTLE! VINYL HIT IT!'' As some Russian music rumbles through the castle, the guests of the gala see strange clothed teenagers doing some sort of Russian dance, standing up right, forelegs wrapped around each other and hind kicking forward one after another. In front of them is a pale pony with green and black striped blouse, black hat and pixelated glass. The next day Jay is about to take out the mail, when he finds Lightning standing at his door. Jay opens the door to see Lightning crying. ''What's up girl?'' ''Why did you ruin my perfect night not once, but twice?'' She cries with tear stained eyes. ''What? You mean that Spin Off? That's an annual tradition for music artists in my...'' ''STOP TALKING ABOUT YOUR STUPID WORLD! YOU ARE IN MY WORLD NOW! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND? I LOVE YOU! SINCE THE DAY WE MET!'' ''You...do? I...I didn't know.'' ''I HINTED YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING! REMEMBER THE FLOWER?'' Jay does remember the flower. About a week ago, Jay found a flower laying on his doorstep. ''That was yours? Thought Derpy had let one fall while taking a bouquet to someone who ordered one.'' ''YOU THOUGHT THAT?'' Lightning's tears now flow as rivers. ''WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME? WHY? OF ALL THE STALLIONS IN EQUESTRIA, I CHOSE YOU. BUT WHY DO YOU KEEP REJECTING ME?'' ''I don't.'' ''You...don't?'' Jay shakes his head. ''The only time I heard of you fancying me, was when Screwy was asking if I was going to the gala. After I said I was going to the spin off, I heard a crying sound fading away. That's when I knew that somepony fancied me. It turned out to be you.'' Jay strokes his hoof through her mane. ''But, I actually fancied you too. You reminded me of your mother. Well, Dashie in my world.'' ''So you want to be my coltfriend?'' Silence Jay nods, followed by Lightning kissing him. They both promised to keep it secret to the others. While Jay was more hanging out with the mane six and their husbands, Lightning chilled out with the rest of her friends. Things were the way they were supposed to go. Jay wakes up from strange sounds coming from his windmill. ''Not freaking again. This is like the 1000th time.'' As he grabs his shottie, Jay rushes outside to see that Lightning is stuck in his windmill. ''Light, what the hay are you doin' in my windmill?'' After releasing her, Jay looks if she is injured. ''Well, looks like you're okay. But what the hay were you doin' in my windmill?'' ''I wanted to warn you! Chrysalis has heard about you and what you do to her Changelings. She wants to kill you!'' ''So what? Bring that...insect here and she'll die the same way 'her' Changelings died. By the cause of my trusted shottie. I was gonna say something different.'' Lightning still does look serious, what makes Jay suspicious. ''Just go somewhere, they couldn't find you. Go.'' ''As ye say, girl.'' Jay packs his stuff, places his headphones on his head, turns on his MP3 and says: ''See ya around, honey.'' and he leaves. While he walks away, Lightning looks at him with green eyes. Lightning knocks on Jay's door, but she doesn't receive answer. She does also notices a lot of Changelings in his windmill. She fears the worst. When she opens the door, she gets really scared...
