Chapter 31: Electro Swing

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Treble sat in his living room with a heartbroken look on his face, Sunset and Rarity at his sides looking at him apologetically.

"It's alright Treble, these things happen sometimes darling." Rarity said as she rubbed a hand up his back.

"It's ok babe, you'll recover, it's ok." Sunset comforted as she hugged him. Both of them knew who much he was hurting, they understood why.

He had lost something special, something he cherished, and it had been taken away from him.

He looked down sadly at his short jacket, which was now violently torn. He had rushed it to Rarity but it was beyond repair, even with her skills. He sat with only his black t-shirt on his torso. He was upset because of the sentimental value of the small jacket that would on,y be able to cover his chest. He didn't know what had happened to it, he had hung it up to dry outside after washing the blood stains (from a group of thugs he had beat, seriously where are the cops?) and when he came back it was on the ground in that condition.

He felt naked without it, it was something that defined him and separated himself from other guys, as none of them would ever try to wear something like it due to pop culture deeming it as a crime against fashion, to which Rarity was outraged when she learned about it.

Scary and Frightening just sat on the table looking up at the three humans. Frightening made a few click sounds to Scary who responded with his own clicks, explaining how the jacket was important to their master.

"Would you like me to make you a new one?" Rarity offered. Treble shook his head and made various hand signs that Rarity had learned to read. "You feel like you need a change?" She asked shocked until he made a few more hand signs. "Can't keep looking like a rebellious teenager after we graduate? ...I suppose that makes sense..." She replied thoughtfully. "Well, how about we go to the boutique and see if we can get you a suitable replacement?"

Treble nodded and placed the ruined jacket in a small box which he was going to keep on his mantle for memory purposes. Sighing as he set the box above the rooms fireplace he followed Rarity out the door and they began walking towards the boutique. Sunset gout up and left the house too, but in a different direction.

Scary crawled up,to the front door and turned the lock, securing the house while his masters were away.


Half an hour later

As Sunset was walking she couldn't help but think about everything that was happening in her life, she had an amazing boyfriend, was pregnant with said boys child, had great friends, was about to graduate and move onto the next stage in her life and other smaller things that for the sake of the pace of this chapter are not worth mentioning.

She was taken out of her train of thought as she bumped into someone and fell on her rear. "Oh my gosh, I'm sorry." She apologised before looking up.

"No no, it was my fault, I wasn't looking where I was going." There stood a young man with short white hair and green eyes, a white and grey jacket on with light blue jeans and white shoes, one of the three men that X had spoken to in the second last chapter of season 2. He held his hand down to Sunset and helped her up. He stared at Sunset for a few moments, admiring her beauty before clearing his throat. "Are you alright?"

"Oh, yes I'm fine thank you." The two began walking, surprised to find they were going the same way.

"So, what's your name?" He asked.

"Oh, uh, Sunset, Sunset Shimmer." She replied with a smile.

"Well, I am Electro Swing, pleasure to meet you Sunset." The two began to talk for a while as they walked down the sidewalk. "Oh, I've just moved into the neighbourhood."

"Really, where did you move from?" Sunset asked with curiosity.

"Inner Canterlot City, pretty bad place to live due to the gangs but I'm away from that now." They continued walking until the came to Sunsets destination, a talk building where Sunset was instructed to go to by her friends.

"We'll this is my stop." As she was about to walk towards the building the door opened to reveal Casino walking out slightly dazed. As he reached the middle of the pathway from the sidewalk and building Hack ran to the door with something in his arms.

"Take your chair with yooooooooouuuu!" He yelled before throwing a folding chair at Casion which hit him on the head causing him to collapse to the ground.

Electro glared at Casino and Hack, spotting two of his targets. "Those guys your friends?" He asked Sunset, putting on a happy mask.

"Yeah, they can be crazy at times but they're sweet and kind." As she was about to walk away Electro placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, I don't mean to be creepy or anything but, are you perhaps, seeing anyone at the moment?" He asked with a genuine smile.

Sunset sighed and took his hand off her shoulder. "Sorry, but I am seeing someone right now." She turned her head and smiled. "That's him now."

Electro turned his head and glared at who was walking up the sidewalk. Treble was walking with a small mile on his face. He now wore a red zip hoodie that he wore open to show his shirt. It matched him and made him even seem older and more mature, stirring something in Sunset.

Treble reached the two and hugged Sunset before looking to Electro with a raised brow before smiling and holding out his hand. "Treble Clef." He said kindly.

Electro placed his hand in Trebles and put on a false smile. "Electro Swing."

"Well it was nice meeting you Electro, but we need to go now." Sunset said as she and Treble walked away hand in hand.

Electro smiled and waved at them before frowning and clenching his fists as no one was looking. "Well, looks like I've got more of a reason to get rid of that goody two shoes, it's no longer about the money, this is personal." He smiled evilly before walking away. "One way or another, that girl will be mine." I think this guy and Adagio should meet up, I think they'd get along well with each other.

Author's Notes:

And now the paths of Love and Heartbreak are fast approaching, this new villain being a very big part of the plan.

Don't worry, I'll get a picture of Trebles new design for the Love storyline up soon, as well as Sunsets.
