Hello Ridley! Glad you could make it! The plot centers around the canterlot high music showcase and how our characters meet and become friends during the events surrounding it. My main character is Blues Jam who's a talented guitarist in a band signing up for the musical showcase, he's originally from the UK and he moved to the US with his parents and older brother and now attends Canterlot high.
I'm gonna be using Nightshade, a rebellious and borderline crazy girl with no musical talent whatsoever. She's a hell of a dancer, though.
(I guess I'll get started.) Nightshade walked into class thirty minutes late and sat down at her desk. The teacher arched an eyebrow at her and let out a disappointed sigh, but said nothing. At least she'd showed up today. Nightshade looked out the window longingly. It was a beautiful Friday morning, and she couldn't figure out why she had felt compelled to come to school today. She usually skipped Fridays, after all.
Another student came into class not long after, looking like something the cat dragged in with his huge black back-combed hair and loose fitting sleeveless tee. As he sat down on the desk to the right of Nightshade the teacher looked at him annoyed by something. Cranky: Where have you been Blues Jam? Blues: Uhh... to the toilet, like I said when I asked you earlier. Cranky: You've been gone for 15 minuets! What the hell were you doing? Blues: Well, I... Cranky: Actually, forget it! I don't have time to deal with you today. Blues: Suit yourself Cranky Doodle. Cranky: That's Mr Doodle to you! Blues chose not to respond as Mr Doodle was making it a little too easy for Blues to take the mickey out of him. Cranky: I've gotta go get some papers, I won't be too long. Cranky left the classroom. "Don't rush back!" a student said from the left near the front of the class.
Nightshade grinned at the guy next to her, whom old Crankypants had call Blues Jam. "Nice job. I thought he'd never shut up. Don't think I've seen you before. Are you new?"
Blues: Hm? Oh no, I've been here a year and a bit now. I've never seen you in this lesson before, have you moved lessons or something?
Nightshade shrugged. "Sort of. I've been at Canterlot High for about a month now, ever since they kicked me out of Crystal Prep."
She laughed. "It was a misunderstanding. They thought I was making a bomb in the chem lab. It was really just a fuel additive I was working on, but most of them didn't believe me."
She shook her head. "I don't have a fully-stocked chemistry lab at home. Besides, what's the point of a secret weapon if other people know about it? ... My dad races, too. I wanted to beat him for a change."
Blues: alright then. What's your name? Cranky comes back with the papers. Cranky: All right I'm back, settle down class. Nightshade tells Blues her name however they had to put their conversation on hold till after class.
After class was lunch, and Nightshade found herself sitting with Blues in the lunchroom. "So, did you hear about this musical showcase they're having? You kinda strike me as the musical type."
Blues: >laughs< Who hasn't heard of it? I mean, it seems like everyone's signing up for it. Blues then spots one of his friends over by the canteen and calls her over. Blues: Hey Cher! Over here! Blues' friend sees him and starts making her way over to him and Nightshade. Blues: So yeah like I was saying. Everyone seems to be signing up but what I don't get is why no-one's shown any musical interest prior except maybe for Rainbow's and Flash's bands.
"The Rainbooms? I've heard them practicing a few times. They're not bad." She yawned, and took another bite of her pie. Granny Smith's cooking was definitely a major perk of coming to school. "So... have you signed up for it?"
Blues: Yup, me and the band signed up not long after it was announced. Cherry arrives and sits next to Blues. Cherry had her hair done similarly to Blues, all teased, back combed giving it massive volume. However her hair was blonde with brunette highlights. Cherry: Heya Blues. Wassup? c: Blues: Oh not much but I'm great. You? Cherry: Eh, the same. (notices Nightshade) Hey there! Blues: Ah Cherry, this' Nightshade. I met her last lesson. Cherry: Hi Nightshade, I'm Cherry. Cherry Pie.
Nightshade looked at Cherry and nodded. "Hey, how ya doin? Blues was just telling me about his band. Are you in it?"
Cherry: Yeah! I play the drums and do backing vocals too. Blues: It's not really just MY band, but it did kinda start with me and Cherry.
