Killer Duet

Fight Time

I could tell that it had been a good bit of time since I had fallen asleep, because I could feel the sunlight streaming in from the windows and it was what had woken me up.

“Uhhhhhg, go step on a lego sun and after your done doing that, go back to bed.” I mumbled.

“Well that is an interesting insult isn’t it?” A familiar voice asked from the chair beside my bed.

“AHH, HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THERE?!” I shouted out in surprise, at who I could now identify as Headmaster Twilight.

“Well, it has been about thirty minutes since I arrived so a good bit of time. Mr. Flynt.” She told me.

“Ohh, well why didn’t you wake me up instead of waiting?”

“Because that would be rude to do to a new student.” She said and i nearly lost it at that point from sheer happiness.

“Thank you thank you thank you headmaster. I promise that you won’t regret this.”

“Make sure that you don’t, Mr. Flynt. Also I have enlisted the team AMOR to show you around today, and too bring you to our classes and for that, here’s your schedule. Also your equipment is in the cabinet beside you.” She said before handing me my schedule and exiting the room, and a couple of minutes later team AMOR walked in after I had gotten out of the bed and redressed myself and grabbed my trumpet.

“Hey dude, you ready to go?”Amethyst asked before seeming to remember something. “Also can I see your schedule?”

“Sure, here you go.” I said handing it to here and watched as she squealed in joy for some reason.

“Yay, it seems that we have the same classes. This is going to be so fun.” She said jumping from happiness, and after hearing that so did the rest of her team.

“Well that is all good and stuff, shouldn’t we get going? The schedule says that we have combat training first, I do believe.” i said and with a gasp Amethyst somehow grabbed me and her team and dragged us all off to what I could only assume to be the combat classroom.

Five Minutes Later

“Now that everyone is here, let me start off by introducing our new student and a duel. Will Mr. Coal please come down to the arena?” The combat instructor, Ms. Rarity asked and I had to comply. “Now Mr. Coal, who would you like to fight? And I should tell you this now, that Headmaster Twilight has decided that you will be joining the team of whoever it is that you pick.”

“Hmm, I think the ones with the pink bowtie and the cool shades.” I said pointing at a gray mare with the bowtie and a white mare with the shades, while hoping that I made the right choice.

“Both at the same time? if your sure than I will allow it.” Ms. Rarity said, before calling the two down. “Ok all three of you know the rules correct? Than let this match begin.” She called out and I immediately began playing my trumpet to try and keep them in place, but only managed to capture the white one. While the other one used what I could now see as a bow for a cello to slash at me, which caused me to lose my focus and release the white mare.

“Woah, watch where your swinging that thing, it might just come back to burn you.” I said with a cheeky grin as I place a vial of fire dust into my ammunition slot and played, causing the sound waves to be replaced with a tunnel of fire that washed over the bow wielding mare, and nicking the white mare, singing her fur slightly.

“Oh, you think it’s okay to burn my fur do you? Well think again you son of a whore!” The white mare shouted at me, before dragging out what looked like an amplifier for a turntable, that’s front unfolded into the barrel of a cannon. “Let’s see how you like a similar treatment punk.” And then she fired what appeared to be a concentrated wave of wub that I was to close to dodge, which almost knocked my aura completely out.

“You know, *cough cough* that hurts like I just stepped on a lego. And not one of those big ones. Oh no, I’m talking about the one by one lego pieces. You know, the ones that you know are there, but you still step on it and can’t get it out? yeah, those legos. So in retaliation, I am going to play you a little song.” I told them and readied my trumpet after switching out the fire dust for a vial of steam dust, and was chuckling inside when i noticed their pained expressions from when I described the pain of legos. “Now, let’s get this show on the road eh?” I called out and began playing, as I watched my sound waves take the form of scalding hot steam that temporarily disabled the what I am guessing is a wub cannon, and depleting the aura of the white mare completely.

“You monster, you hurt Vinyl so now I have to hurt you.” The bowtie wearing pony shouted at me, before picking up her cello from somewhere and playing it which released the stored dust in it, causing the notes to have different effects that were sadly directed at me. With the effects ranging from simple fire to all four primal elements combining to cause me excruciating pain, as well as deplete my aura the rest of the way, and causing me to pass out again.
