Trombone2525

Forte is a trombonist. How will this work?

[colour=#008000]"If you say so... Was it just me, or did something seem odd to you about that grey colt? That was following the blacksmith?"[/colour]

Moon Stone kept moving despite the coming night. Years of survival has taught him to be active at all parts of the day, taking hour naps along the way. He was walking along, when suddenly the entire forest fell silent. He stopped, looking around. This had never happened before. What was happening to his forest?

[colour=#008000]"That could be a problem. You know your parents asked me to keep you safe. Destroying that ring could prove to be quite dangerous."[/colour]

(Did this thread die? )

(Great, so Forte is gonna become a third wheel. Haha, nah, thats fine. Alright, lets get back to the RP, shall we?)

After Witty scowled, Forte grew even more uneasy about the mare. What was she hiding?

Moon Stone had been walking all morning, and stopped for lunch. Since he had lived in the forest his whole life, he had no aversion to hunting and eating meat. He quickly tracked and killed a squirrel, using his magic to fling one of his knives with expert aim. He cooked it in a magically conjured fire, and sat down to eat. It was then that he noticed the paper on the tree. Not feeling like getting up from his meal, he pulled it towards him. It was a crude picture of a forest, with what looked like a tall stallion in the center. Moon Stone found the picture odd. He had never seen anypony that tall when he spied on Ponyville, and there werent any creatures in the forest that looked like that. But he knew one thing from the picture. Somepony else was in his forest, and he didnt take kindly to visitors. He packed up, put out the fire, slipped the picture in his belt, and set off again for the supposed cabin in the center.

As Tipper leaves, Forte returns to his work.[colour=#008000] "And this is the price I pay for working in a brand new field.."[/colour]

[colour=#008000]"I apologize sir, but we cannot."[/colour]

In the late morning, Key #2: Moon Stone wakes up. He has lived by himself in the Everfree forest all his life, ever since he was a little foal. He has been seperated from all of pony kind, and as such, he is very different. His magic skills, honed by survival instinct and practice, are very high, allowing him to do things most other unicorns can't. He wakes up in the late morning, shaking his dark grey mane free of dirt. It seems to be a clear day on the south-eastern corner, near Ponyville. He often spies on the town from within the forest, magically enhancing his vision. He heard a few ponies talking about this cottage in the middle of what he feels to be his forest, and he has decided to help him out. He only carries 3 bone knives on a belt made from squirrel leather, but he has hundreds of other ones scattered and hidden throughout the forest. He stands up, drinks from the nearby stream, and heads out into the heart of the forest.

(Okay, I guess. Would you bring another character in, or would it be between Witty and one of us?)

No, Rainbow is defiantly trumpet. It is loud, it's used in a butt ton of music, and the stereotypical trumpet personality of thinking that they are better than everyone else suits her.

(Depends, shipping between whom?)

[colour=#008000]"Oh, I apologize. Genemods can not be added after birth, they are only to engineer specific traits in the womb."[/colour]

[colour=#008000]"Your what? Sir, this is a genemod lab. If you are not here for a genemod consultation, then I must ask you to leave."[/colour]

It took Forte a moment to notice the stallion. [colour=#008000]"Oh, hello. Are you here for a genemod consultation?"[/colour]

[colour=#008000]"Maybe... What will we do if they cant destroy it? You know how hard magic can be to rid yourself of..." [/colour]He looked down at zakrii, his sword.

That is amazing. Who is that on trombone and trumpet? I'm a trombone player myself. And when I was thinking this, I was just thinking wind instruments, since we dont have an orchestra class at my school.

The piccolo is too high, too shrill for Fluttershy, I think. I picked the oboe for Rarity because I figured the solo opportunities and being in the spotlight would appeal to her. I like the idea of Pinkie on tuba, though.

The grey colt dashed off into the night. Forte placed his wing over his sword, a unique weapon made from a magical alloy. [colour=#008000]"I could feel it too, but something about it... It was compelling."[/colour]

So, i am a huge band nerd, and I couldnt help but think about what instruments each of the mane six would play. Here is what I came up with.

Twilight Sparkle: Clarinet

Rainbow Dash: Trumpet

Fluttershy: Flute

Pinkie Pie: Alto Saxophone

Rarity: Oboe

Applejack: Trombone

Forte noticed what seemed to be an internal conflict within Witty. He was often good at reading ponies faces. He looked at Punda, then to Witty suspiciously.

Forte stepped out of the corner of the room, where he was keeping watch over Mandaline. Despite the fact that she was a full grown mare, her parents still wished for him to watch over her. He was an old family friend, and had grown rather close to her, somewhat like an older brother. [colour=#008000]"Ma'am" [/colour]Forte called her ma'am because he viewed her parents request as more of a body guard duty. He would have protected her anyway, but the request seemed to him to add a hint of formality. [colour=#008000]"Where in Equestria did you even find that ring?"[/colour]

Meanwhile, a grey colt followed the blacksmith with the ring in the shadows, eyeing the ring with greed.

Forte caught the catch in Witty's voice, and decided to question it.

[colour=#008000]"I know you probably get this question a lot, but... What's with your wings?"[/colour]

Forte then winced, realizing how insensitive he must have sounded.

[colour=#008000]"So what do you do?"[/colour]

Something about the pegasus didnt sit well with Forte, but he dismissed the feeling.
