A/N: Hello, everypony! Welcome to my new story! It's an old idea with a new twist. Hope you like it!

If you're wondering what the two main characters' appearances are, Guitar Riff is a red unicorn with a black-and-blue mane and tail, and her Cutie Mark is a black guitar pick. Singing Writer is blue with a red-and-black mane and tail and a crossed eighth note and a pencil as her Cutie Mark. They both have matching purple eyes.

Singing Writer

Guitar Riff and I are best friends, but we're also twin sisters. Our mother and father, named Serene Silence and Sandy Grass are both earth ponies, while Guitar Riff and I are unicorns. We have three younger siblings, all earth ponies, named Tall Silo, Hay Bale and Turtleneck. We both have a lot going on, and it's very complicated. Right now we are the students of the Princess of Friendship.

But enough about that now. Let's start at the beginning. This is our story.

Guitar Riff

It all started one night when Singing Writer and I were practicing in a silo for our small performance that we were planning. Our mother barged in and yelled out, "What in Equestria is making all this racket?!"

I was super annoyed at her comment, but I put down the instruments I held and went down to the level where Serene was standing, and Singing followed me.

"We were just practicing for our next performance, mom! Why do you always barge in on us like this? You promised that you'd leave us alone while we go in here!" I practically shouted at her (we were a safe distance from the house, so I had no problem with it).

Her cream-and-light pink mane seemed to tingle with anger, her green eyes squinted, and her usually calm swirl of a Cutie Mark seemed to match her mood as she shouted even louder at both of us, "You two unicorns sicken me! I have done so much for you, and you only have disappointed me!"

She then brought out something that terrified my sister and I from birth: her special whip which had tips made from dragon teeth, which she kept sharp. She began to crack it at us, and her aim easily found our weakest points, causing us to fall down on the ground in pain. Her whipping did not stop for about an hour, and we started bleeding all over. She left us, then walked back to the house.

After a few minutes, I said to Singing, "I don't know about you, but I can't take this anymore. Nopony should be treated like this every night. I'm going to run away. If you come with, that would help me and save you too. If not, it's okay. It's your decision. I'm packing my instruments."

"I'm coming with you," Singing replied, putting her hoof on my shoulder. "I'm not taking this anymore, either. Where would we go, though? We have never been outside our small village or our farm."

"We'll find a way. We'll just travel under Princess Luna's lovely nighttime moon," I reassured her, knowing that Luna would easily guide us.

We got our instruments and nothing more, and we grabbed a wagon that our father used to sell our crops all across Equestria. We easily found a small path in the back of the farm and traveled under cover of moonlight.

We both wondered whether we could ever find a way to escape the life we lived at home, but knew that we would stop at nothing to achieve that goal.
