Death of a Maestro
***********
Next day
***********
The market in Ponyville was well alive with hundred of busy ponies buying tonight's diner,along with other accessory for the day of hard work ahead of them.
"Excuse me,sorry dear,a hundred apologies sir." A white coat mare apologized as she ran through the busy market at full gallop.
"Rarity what the rush?"one of the stall owners called out. Hopping to get an answer from the white coat mare.
"Can't talk now have to get to Twilight's." Rarity shouted back to the stall owner as she ran past her.
The ponies at the market watch in confusion to why Rarity of all ponies was running trough the market as tho discord was chasing after her. After awhile the ponies of the market shrugged it off,and continue doing what they where doing before.
Except one unicorn filly with mint green coat,yellow mane,a blue horn and red eye's continue to watch the white coat mare run to the library of town. Thinking that the mare was just insane the young filly continue to look through the market place,forgetting about the crazed white coat mare.
Twilight was not having the best day of her life. Her head felt like a rock fell on her,and there was a band of drummers playing inside her skull.
Twilight moan in pain.
"Are you sure you are feeling all right Twilight,"Spike asked worried. "You been like this seance yesterday,and it seems to be getting worse by the minuet." Spike pored a cup of hot tea,and handed it to Twilight.
Twilight flinch as she used her magic to levitate the warm tea to her lip's.
"Thank you Spike,but this should help out." taking a sip from the tea she felt a tiny bit better.
"Your welcome Twilight." Spike place the tea pot on a silver plate next to a cup of sugar cubes.
"Note to self only use Zecoras sleeping pills in case of emergency's." Spike thought to him self.
The door to the library swing open with enough force to shatter the glass on the door.
Twilight clench her teeth in pain as the pounding in her head just got a lot worse.
"Twilight!" Rarity nearly screamed with excitement in her voice.
"What!"Asked with clench teeth.Her anger beginning to build up inside her.
"Well you don't have to be rude darling."
Twilight grunted in pain.
"Now darling bear with me here. But what if I told you i won seven! free tickets to Fair Strings the master Maestro to his show tomorrow night at thee Musique de l'âme!" Rarity jump in the air with delight squeal of delight.
Twilight flinch as more pain shot through her head,"Rarity please for the love of Celestia please calm down. my head hurts.".
"Sorry dear I'll try to keep my self calm,but it so existing!" Rarity squealed like a school filly.
"I can tell." Twilight side in an annoyed tone.
Rarity used her magic to levitate two tickets out of her saddle bag. "Here you go Twilight here's your ticket," Rarity place the ticket in front of Twilight. "And here is your ticket Spike." Rarity levitated the ticket into Spike claw.
"Thank you Rarity." Spike spoke in his love struck tone.
"Your welcome,now Twilight I have prepared your dress for the show tomorrow. Come to my place to pick it up at no later then five o'clock."Rarity instructed to her friend before making her way out the front door of library.
"My dress?" Twilight said confusingly.
Rarity stop at the door a confused look on the white mares face could be seen clear as day,"Yes your dress dear. The one i made you for the fashion show last summer,and the galloping gala?"
"Oh...Well then I'll see you at five then," Twilight smiled sheepishly,"Wait! what about the rest of the girls?"
"They will be there at the same time getting there dresses ready for the show. Now if you excuse me Twilight I have too get back to home to fill in a large shipment of fine clothing to Canterlot." Opening the door Rarirty said her goodbyes,and left. Closing the door behind her.
Twilight sighed with frustration, "Spike if you need me I'll be in bed." Twilight spoke in a low tone as she made her way up the stares to her room.
"Ok,Twilight hope you feel better tomorrow."
"Me too." Twilight mumbled to her self.
*******************
The next day
******************
Ponyville was well more then alive the next day. Hundreds of Ponies,Griffins,Zebras,and other beings not native to Equestira gathered around the famous Musique de l'âme. To the residents of Ponyville this is where many famous musicians got there first start at. Weather it be classical music,opera,and even where some DJ's have started there long successful careers at. It is place well respected by the town,and the music community all over the world.
Twilight,Applejack,Pinkie,Spike,and Rainbow Dash waited in line to enter the Musique de l'âme. Being the barrier of the Elements of harmony they gain a lot of attestation from the crowd,and the media. Dozens of Ponies simultaneously talk,and shouted asking questions to why the elements are here.
Twilight cover her eye's from the Blinding light from the photographers cameras,"Miss.Sparkle,Miss.Sparkle!" A pony in the crowed shouted trying to get her attestation,"Why are thee element barriers coming to see the master Maestro? Do you know him personally out side of his work?"
Twilight looked from where the voice was coming from but in every direction she looked she saw nothing but blinding light of flashes from the cameras. "No I don't know him I've only heard of him yesterday from Rarity."
"Where is the element of kindness,and generosity?" the same voice shouted amongst the crowed.
"Rarity went to go get her from her cottage."
The reporters continue there assault on Twilight,and her friends,"Look here come the element of generosity!" Some one from the crowed shouted.
Like a swarm of hungry sharks the reporters started bombing rarity with question mush similar too the ones they where asking Twilight.
Pushing her way through the crowed Rarity was able to get close enough to her friends. She started pushing Twilight,and the others to the front door where one of the bouncer gladly open it up for them.
When Rarity got her friends inside safely she turned to the bouncer with unapproved look. "Next time you see the elements being harassed by the media don't just stand there like a dope,instead do your job,and keep these vaulters away."
The bouncer looked down at his hoof in shame. 'Yes mam I'm sorry."
"Don't let it happen again!" Rarity said sternly before heading back in to regroup with her friends.
"Thanks for the help Rarity." Twilight thanked.
"Don't mention it dear leave the media too me for I know how to deal with them."
"Hey Rarity where is Fluttershy? I thought you said you where going to go get her." Rainbow Dash chimed in.
"Oh,she said some of her animal friends where giving her some trouble so she might be late for the first few song's on the beginning." Rarity sheepishly smiled.
Twilight was going to ask more when a crow of ponies,and non-ponies alike came pouring into the building rushing to find there seats for the show of there lives.
"We better get to our seat before some pony takes them." Spike chimed in.
Nodding in agreement Rarity started heading towards the theater with Spike,and the rest of the girls following right behind her.
upon entering the theater the elements including Spike gasp in awe at the sight before them.
The theater room was huge about two story's tall while the seemingly endless ocean of chairs expended for forty-feet just on the lower floor alone. The well polished wood shined off the wall reflecting thee entire room,and the pony's there.
Twilight looked to the stage with interest. She notice the well designed red curtness with golden trim. She then looked to the stage itself;the wood on the stage was the same polished wood used on the wall of the theater. Twilight started doing measurements on the stage itself trying to figure out just how big it truly is. To her knowledge from many book's she has read on theaters in her library on bored night's she made a rough guess that the stage was about 43 feet in width, 27 feet in depth and was raised about 5 feet off the ground for the seat in the front part of the theater.
Twilight felt some one pulling her her dress she turned to see Spike pulling her towards a row of chairs in the center of the theater where all her friends are waiting for her.
"Come on Twilight we found our seat's over there." Spike pointed to the row of chairs.Twilight followed Spike to there seats witch where marked with signs saying Reserved for ticket winners.
Using her magic to remove the sign from the seat Twilight sat down waiting for the show to start.
A few minutes went by and more ponies started to show up. The theater was filled to the brim in just a matter of few moments all the seats in the house where taken leaving some ponies to seat them self's on the ground.
"I'm so existed!" Pinkie spoke with a mouth full of popcorn she randomly pulled out of nowhere.
"Me too Pinkie,"Twilight added in,"The show should be starting soon."
Just as Twilight finished her sentence the lights in the theater began to dime,Spotlight turned on above the catwalks. The large circle's of light emolument the stage with bright light.
A stallions voice echoed through out the theater. "Now introducing the one Stallion you all have been waiting for so give a round of applause to Fair Strings the master Maestro!"
Slowly the curtains open up. When the curtains where fully pulled back a spot light turned on in the center of the stage reviling a snow white unicorn with ocean blue eye's,a golden colored mane. The stallion was wearing a black suit with a white business shirt underneath the suit with a black bow-tie.
The stallion smiled as he surveyed the crowed before him. Lifting a large black wooden case in the shape of a Large Cello next to him he started unlocking the lock's with his magic.
When all the lock's where unlock the stallion open the wooden case. He pulled out a well polished wooden Cello with two golden initial carved into the music interment saying F.S.M.M.
The crowed was quit as a grave. They waited patiently for the grand Master Maestro to start playing.
Giving one last glance at the crowed the Maestro picked up his bow with his magic and began playing.
The crowed was in awe at the sound the Cello was making,it sounded like the heavens sent this skilled Stallion to bring joy and Happiness to the world. By making music only what god's should here in there halls at feasts in there name's.
This went on for five minuets before the final note was played ending the song. The crowed applauded with enough force that it shook the curtness like a breeze had entered the large room from an open window.
The Maestro stood up,and bowed to the crowed of pony's.
"He is so amazing." Rarity sighed dreamily.
"He's pretty amazing I admit." Twilight whispered back.
after the crowed was done applauding the Maestro ready him self for another one of his songs.
The bow pulled back on the first note. The crowed went silent.
"I'm glade we could do this girls. This is really fun and.."Twilight was cut off by a mare screaming.
Turning around Twilight looked in horror as the Maestro had an arrow sticking out of his chest.
The Maestro looked down in horror. He tried calling for help but another arrow pierced his throat,a gurgle and a spat of blood seep out of his mouth on to the stage.
The crowed looked in horror as the Maestro fell to his knees before falling to his side dead with a pool of his own blood beginning to form onto the well polished stage floor.
The crowed began panicking making mad dashes to the exits. The theater was in chaos. Pony's,griffins,zebra alike trampled each other to get out.
"SPIKE,SPIKE! WHERE ARE YOU." Twilight shouted among the madness looking for her number one assistant.
Twilight continue to look for her assistant amounts the crowed. Panic started setting in,she feared the worse when she could not find him or hear his calls for help amongst the screaming crowed.
Twilight felt a large force knock her down onto the floor. She tried getting up but pushed back down by some pony.
"Twilight,stay down!' A town-boyish voice ordered.
recognizing the voice at Rainbow Dash,Twilight shouted in her friends ear,"Rainbow Dash where is Spike! I lost him when the crowed started stampeding this way!"
"I don't know I'll look for him,"Rainbow lifted her head up for a quick peek trying to find her friends dragon. Rainbow noticed something purple dart behind a row of chairs on the opposite side of where there where.
"I think I see him on the other side of us over there!" Rainbow pointed her hoof in the directions where she believed Spike would be at.
Twilight looked to where Rainbow Dash was pointing at. Her hopes of finding Spike skyrocketed.
"HOLD ON SPIKE I'M COMING!" Twilight shouted pushed Rainbow Dash off her. With a burst of adrenaline Twilight pushed her way trough the stampeding horde of Ponies,using her magic to shove a few away from her she continue to push trough the crowed. Pushing the last pony out of the way Twilight ran down the rows of seats looking for Spike. She continue to look in every direction till she came to the end of the row too see Spike crouch behind one of the seats.
"Spike!" Twilight shouted with joy at seeing her number one assistant unharmed.
"Twilight?" Spike looked up with a surprised look on his face.
"Thank,Celestia you are ok." Twilight warp her hooves around Spike in a motherly hug happy to see her number one assistant is not hurt,she felt like a tone of wight was lifted off of her chest.
Twilight open her mouth to say more when she heard Applejack shouting from the distance. Twilight looked where Applejack's voice was coming from and notice her pointing to the catwalks where she was yelling at some pony.
Twilight looked up to the catwalks,and noticed a Pegasuses dressed in a all black outfit with a mask covering its face.
"Spike go and get the guards!" Twilight ordered.
"But Twilight.."Spike tried protesting but was cut off.
Twilight knelt down to Spikes level,looking him dead in the eye's, she spoke in her most serious tone she had,"Do not argue with me just go now!" Twilight shouted slightly pushing Spike in the distraction of the exit.
Spike knew better then to argue with Twilight at this point he made his way to the exit with the last remaining ponies that where stampeding out of the theater.
"HEY GET BACK HERE!" Rainbow Dash boomed throwout the theater.
Twilight watch as the armored figure ran on catwalks at a full gallop with Rainbow Dash right be hind the assassin.
The armored figure leap from the catwalk,using it's wings the figure glided down before pushing it self up with it wings back into the air flying towards the stage.
Twilight dash to the stage with Applejack,Rarity,and Pinkie Pie right behind her while dash flew over head trying to catch up with the assassin.
The assassin landed on the stage,stopping only for a second to look in both directions the assassin made a sprint out of one of the back stage door's leaving the elements only a few inches behind.
Rainbow dash tried braking in mid flight but to only fly through the wooden door dazing her for a few seconds. Shaking her head to get her seance's back Rainbow Dash continue to chase after the assassin. Twilight and the rest of the elements followed shortly behind there Pegasuses friend.
The chase went out the back of the theater and into the back ally's of Ponyville where Rainbow Dash continue to fly the tight corners of the ally sometimes hitting the wall's of buildings to only recover shortly to continue her chase on the assassin. To any Pony seeing Rainbow Dash repeatedly bounce off buildings it would look like she was playing a game of pinball but only using her self as the ball to hit every thing.
The elements continue there chase down the alleyways gaining distance with the assassin with each step they took. It seem that they where going to catch the killer soon.
___________________________________
******************************************
Mean while at the golden oak library.
*******************************************
Spike ravage through a secret compartment under his bed looking for something that could help him out with the problem at hand.
"Where is it! I know I place it here after aaah! here it is." Spike snatch a small glass bottle with a few rag's tied to it. Making a mad dash down the stairs Spike looked to the sky to see if he could see the armored figure or Rainbow Dash. To his luck he spotted Rainbow Dash above one of the building giving chase to the armored figure behind one of the town's houses.
Spike quicken his pace to a full dash to the ally where he would more then likely would find Twilight and the others chasing the figure through the darken ally ways of ponyville.
He could only hope he could get there in time if they do manage to catch up with the armored figure.
_________________________________________________________
The chase Continue trough the ally's with Rainbow Dash,and the elements never giving up the chase on the black armored figure who they have caught up too after it tried losing them through the tight corners of the ally's by making sharp ninety-degree turns in very tight corners. By doing this it only slowed the armored figure down by a hair but enough to get Rainbow Dash just enough time to catch up with it by mere inches.
Rainbow Dash pushed her self harder,and faster she increased her speed by a few seconds but that's all she needed if this thing had a tail she could snatch it,and pull the assassin down to ground but too her surprise it did not have a tail at all.
"It must be in the armor," Rainbow ponder to her self. "No matter I can still catch it." Pushing her self foreword with an out reach hoof Rainbow could just barley touch one of the legs of the assassin.
"Just a little more,"Rainbow whispered,"Come on,come on," she got even closer. with one final push Rainbow snagged the leg of the assassin pulling it towards collided with the assassin in mid air.
the Two Pegasuses tumbled in the air each one fighting to gain dominance over one another. The assassin manage to kick Rainbow Dash off with a well place kick to the head,sending the rainbow Pegasuses to fall to the ground.
The armored figure looked back,a small smile formed under the mask at the victory of fighting off its pursuer. How ever the victory was short lived as the the assassin smashed into a brick wall when it was not paying attestation.
The assassin fell back into a pile of trash cans knocking the wind out it for good.
Rainbow Dash wasted no time getting up,and seeing the assassin on the ground gave her the opportunity to pin it to the ground.
Rainbow Dash stood over the assassin with both front hooves on the wings,"You move I'll brake your bucking wings!" Rainbow spoke in an ice cold tone.
The assassin manage to make what sounded like a laugh but only more sounded like a huff then a laugh.
Twilight along with the renaming elements stop in there tracks at the down assassin before them. Taking in a few deep breaths Twilight had so many question to ask it to why it did what it did or who hired the hit,but what she really wanted to know was who was this assassin.
Using her horn Twilight focused on the hood of the assassin,"Let's see who you are under that hood and mask." Twilight focuses all her magic into removing the hood,and the mask.
The elements gasp in sheer shock,horror,and disbelief.
"Hello,girls sorry I could not make it to the show." a kind gentle voice of Fluttershy spoke.
"Flu~Flutershy?" Rainbow step back in disbelief.
none of the elements notice Spike slowly creeping up with a rag in one claw and a small glass vile in another. Tapping Rarity on the back he waited for her to turn around.
"Spi..." Rarity was about say his name when the baby dragon place a finger to his lips signaling her to be quit.
"Take this rag,and go to Twilight then place it around her nose so she can breath it in. It will knock her out I'll get AJ,and Pinkie will get Rainbow Dash." Spike whispered handing Rarity one of the small rag's.
Rarity nodded.
Spike slowly made his way to Pinkie giving her instructions on what to do with the rag. Pinkie took the rag and nodded her mane some how unsparing it self before Spikes eye's giving her a perfect straight mane.
Pinkie made her way to Rainbow Dash who was still in shock to what she was looking at.
"You girls seem quit surprised by this?" Fluttershy stalled as she noticed Spike creeping up on AJ with a rag in one of his claws.
"Fluttershy...Why?"Twilight asked still in shock.
Fluttershy smiled darkly at Twilight,"Because Twilight it's my real special talent,"The dark smile grew more,"Right my Sisters,and brother?"
Twilight,AJ,and Rainbow Dash had no time to react as Rarity,Pinkie,and Spike place the clothes around there friends muzzles making them gasp in surprise in haling the chemicals on the rags.For a few seconds the elements stood still before falling to the ground fast asleep.
"Great work brother,and Sisters now help me get them out of this ally way,and back into the sanctuary." Fluttershy ordered.
Spike and the members of the Brotherhood wasted no time getting the knock out elements onto each others back's. Skillfully and quietly the Dark BorhterHood members used the cover of the shadows of the ally to get near the Everfree where one of the secret entrances to the sanctuary could be used to get the knock out elements to the sanctuary unnoticed by any guards or ponies alike.
The entrance was a hollowed out tree with the BrotherHoods symbol carved into it. Spike pulled on one of the branches of the tree pulling the bass of the tree open. Spike waited for Pinkie,Fluttershy,and Rarity to enter the tree before closing it shut behind him letting the chaos that took place in Ponyville to solve it self out.

So it's not dead shoot now I don't get paid........
Any way it's good to have you back
I can see that you have put a lot of work into this, and it fills my heart with joy.
Keep on the good work brother, and never stop writing.
Fluttershy... unless being seen was planned (and knowing the author planned on getting all the elements in on this, it probably was), there were so many ways to off the guy without ponies even knowing he's dead. In a world of magic, there is probably a poison that makes you go and kill yourself.

4446505 cool OC.
let me ask you something, "Have he recieved any reastraining order?" Wink wink };-)
4774386 mine is the normal one. Not advanced. But how and is it possible to get a wrath as a companion/pet?
4774440 yes. I belive so. If not than a deamon(not demon, diffrent type of monster).
4774470 ive always spelled it wrath but yes that is what im talking of.
4774526 k than. And any particular reason why the 3 dragons ive killed havent unlocked eather my fire breth shout or my death shout? It is starting to become annoying.
4778248 Fire shout has some errors it did with me. But the way I did it was I went back to where I did the companion quest to get the shout and it unlock the shout for me. See if that works. as for the death Shout I never bothered using it so i never unlock it.
Hope this helps.
4778289 unlocked all 3 words for fire shout and am on the questline to kill rhe emperor. Where you plant the note upon the son of the captan.
And the way is see the induction of twi dash and aj is like this: twi, dash, and aj are tied up in each a diffrent room, with a diffrent sibling there to talk to them, along with there cmc counterpart (Rarity-sweetie, pinkie-scoots, spike-bloom) conversing on wich option to do, have them kill a contract, leave with a death threat above their head, or 'threten' their 'siblings' (apple blome is thretened for jack to join, scoots for dash, and spike for twi.) Then they answer and their eathere in or out.
the other way i see this playing out is twi and her group stand in a center of the family. The family surounding them like this, pinkie, bloom, shy, scoots, rarity, spike, sweetie. Shy with out her mask tells of her past and asks if they would join her family and help rid equestria of the threts to small or well hidden for the guard, or leave and know that they may never find the truth and lies of equestrias past. Should they join they are family and find their frends alredy there, should they not they be hipnotized to never speak of it again under the thret of a blood bound pinkie promies.
there is alsow a 3rd way but thatone i just cant type it out, sayit and it makes sence(insert trool discord gag here) but i cant type it in the same mannor.
anyway pleas hurry with the chapter for i cannot wait for the mystery of who is in and who is out to come to a close.
Oh and as for one last piece of skyrim info for today, how do i know if ive contracted vampirisim?
4787569
The next chapter will be out I just don't know when.
But any ways i did like your first idea on how they join I wished I had that idea awhile back.
4787627 it happens. Heck, a oneshot i tried to make about shining armor turned in to a flippity floppity story on my 4 mane oc, RC DC shade and ice.(rain chaser, dragon chaser, shadow chaser, and ice chaser.)
Pleas DONT go cheak it out.
so y3ah, pleas hurry on the chapter but no rush. And again, thanks for allowing 'he demon inside' to come out for pinkies mission... i can only imagin how she would of killed the docter.
