My Little Pony: Life in Equestria

The Last Concert

Part 2

The mane 6 ponies were very concerned about what was going on with Neo, they knew Neo was hiding something, and they wanted to find out what he was hiding from them, right now Neo was performing on stage for a crowd of ponies at the carnival, Neo was wearing a green mohawk wig, blue jeans, a choker, wristbands with metal studs, ear piercings, earrings, and a motorcycle vest, and he was performing Punk Rock music, the crowd watched him perform with amusement, they seemed to enjoy his music, after each song, the crowd cheered for him, when Neo finished his performance, he went to the lounge to cool off, he wiped sweat off his face with a Kleenex, after all, it takes a lot of hard work to be a musician, Neo sat at a table and drank a beer as he cooled off, Neo did miss his friends in Ponyville, he wanted to go back to Ponyville, but he couldn't because of his secret he was hiding from the mane 6, the ponies walked in the lounge, Neo wanted to know what they were doing in there, the lounge was only for employees, they said they got Ms. Jubilee to hire them to work as janitors while Neo was there, Neo said, "What are you girls up to," Rarity said, "Well uh... We decided that we wanna work by your side as long as you are here," Neo said, "Okay then, just don't ask me any questions about Ponyville," so the ponies swept and mopped the lounge, as they were cleaning, Rainbow Dash gave Twilight a sign with her eyes, then Twilight said to Neo, "so Neo, how was Canterlot," Neo gave Twilight a suspicious look, Twilight said, "Not talking about Ponyville, talking about Canterlot, totally different town, "Neo said, "Canterlot was fine," Twilight said, "Was the competition fun," Neo said, "Yes," Neo looked and saw Twilight standing next to him, she said, "Did you meet some nice ponies there," Neo said, "Some," Rainbow Dash flew over to Neo and asked him if she saw 2 famous pony singers there, Neo said, "Yes I saw both of them," Rainbow Dash grinned at Neo and nodded her head, Neo just looked away, he seemed upset that she brought that up, then Rarity came over to Neo and said, "And how did you meet Ms. Jubilee," Neo said, "Well she was selling cherries at the stadium, she watched me perform and she said she liked my music," so we just talked for a while, she read about me that I was the hero of Equestria and the only human of Equestria that she heard about, she was happy to meet me, I told her I was looking for temporary work in singing and she got me the job here at this carnival," Twilight said, "So you told her you were from Ponyville," Neo said yes, Rainbow Dash said, "Did you tell her why you weren't coming back to Ponyville," Neo said, "No, that's none of her business," Rainbow Dash said, "Is it because I made it rain on you that one time," Neo said no, Twilight said, "Have we done something to make not wanna come back to Ponyville," Neo said, "No, listen, it's got nothing to do with you girls, but I'm not telling you why, so just get off my damn back," they were surprised by his remark, then Neo got up and went out the door, as the ponies were still cleaning, Twilight said, "Well, girls, we seem to be striking out." Rainbow Dash said, "That's 'cause we're playing too nice," Rarity said, "Yes, desperate times do call for desperate measures," Rainbow Dash said, "It's time to call in the big guns," and they were referring to Pinkie Pie, they were gonna Pinkie Pie annoy Neo with conversation so they will get him to talk, so the ponies decided to put their plan in motion, Neo was over in an area of the carnival, practicing his next song, then Pinkie Pie appeared from behind Neo, she smiled at him and said, "Hiya Neo, whatcha doin," Neo looked at her, acknowledging her presence, Neo said, "I'm rehearsing for my next performance," Pinkie Pie said, "Can I watch," Neo said, "You promise not to ask me any questions," Pinkie Pie said, "I promise," Neo kept rehearsing, then Pinkie Pie said, "Have you ever had a cherrychanga, ooh, sorry, that was a question," Neo said, "That kind of question is fine, No, I haven't," then Pinkie Pie said, "Well, no wonder, because I made it up myself! A cherrychanga is mashed up cherries in a tortilla that's deep fried. Cherrychanga. Great name, huh? Oh, but maybe I should call it a chimicherry. Ooh, that's good too. Which do you think sounds better? Cherrychanga or chimicherry? Or what if I combine them? Chimicherrychanga! What sounds the funniest? I like funny words! One of my favorite funny words is 'kumquat'! I didn't make that one up. I would work in a kumquat orchard just so I could say 'kumquat' all day! Kumquat, kumquat, kumquat! And 'pickle barrel'! Isn't that just the funnest thing to say? Pickle barrel, pickle barrel, pickle barrel! Say it with me! Pickle barrel, kumquat, pickle barrel, kumquat, pickle barrel, kumquat, chimicherrychanga," Neo was started to get annoyed, so he turned his music up louder so he couldn't hear her, Pinkie Pie tried to talk over it, but the music was too loud, then Neo walked off, the mane 6 came over to Pinkie Pie and asked what happened, Pinkie Pie said Neo had his music up so loud so her annoying conversations didn't work, so they had to think of another way to make Neo tell them the truth, then Neo walked around the carnival, then he went to take a ride on the Ferris wheel, as he rode the Ferris wheel, Rainbow Dash hovered over his cart, Rainbow Dash rocked Neo's cart, which annoyed him, Neo told her to stop, but she said she'll keep rocking his cart until he agrees to tell them the truth, Neo got so annoyed, he threatened to hit her with a beer bottle if she didn't stop, Rainbow Dash backed off and flew away, then Neo got off the Ferris wheel, then Neo walked around the carnival grounds, but everywhere he went, one of the mane 6 showed up, he tried to ignore them, but they kept following him, Neo ran around the carnival, trying to get away, but they kept following him, but then they all cornered him at a dead end, he said, "Girls, leave me alone, stop harassing me," Twilight said, "Neo, we're not harassing you, we're trying to understand what you are hiding from us," Rarity said, "Neo, please tell us the truth," all the girls kept saying please to him with sad faces, then Neo said, "Alright, I'll tell everypony what's going on, just stop it with the sad eyes, but can it wait until tomorrow morning, all this performing and running around has really worn me out," Rainbow Dash said, "Tomorrow huh, I don't know," Pinkie Pie said, "Do you Pinkie promise," Neo sighed and said, "I will tell you the whole truth when I see you tomorrow morning, Pinkie promise," Neo stuck out his small finger, the ponies didn't know what he was doing, Pinkie Pie said, "What are you doing," Neo said, "This is how humans do a Pinkie Promise, our small fingers are called the pinkie, when we make a pinkie promise, we put out pinkie's together," the ponies learned something new about humans, Pinkie Pie showed Neo how ponies do a pinkie promise, but she accepted his pinkie promise the way he did it, so Neo made a pinkie promise that he had to tell them the truth about what's going on, he seemed depressed about it, but the ponies really wanted to know what was going on, so the ponies were expecting to see Neo first thing tomorrow morning and finally get some answers about what's going on with him, and to Pinkie Pie, nopony ever breaks a pinkie promise, end of part 2.
