She is gone. Her own mother, not by blood, but by sheer love, is gone. The one who brought the joy of music into her life, the one who gave her everything she never thought she could have... is gone.
But she will carry on the beat.
Every song, every beat, every drop. Every memory, every trial, every tear. This is Scootaloo's melody.
Author's Note:
If you haven’t already, I suggest you read the first story. I would love it if you would point out all of the mistakes you find... well, as far as grammar and all that goes, at least. If you would like to help out as an editor, that would be great.
Chapters (5)
Huzzah!

Oh, and when I finished and went over the story, I found a couple of big flaws in my writing. So, after a little while, I intend to make a few edits to the story, and then I'll release the 'refined' version.
Also, and I was thinking about it while writing, do you think that it would be a good idea to have Vinyl use words like 'honey', 'hun', or 'sweetie' when she's speaking to Scootaloo. I know a few moms who use phrasing like that, but I just didn't know if it suited Vinyl or not, so I'm going to let you decide.
FIRST!
Ha! I beat Regidar!!!
Good story!
OMG i love thiiiis
I really liked "My Little DJ" and this is just so sad
I miss Vinyl Scratch 
This. This made so sad.
but it was so good. I haven't quite finished it but... I can't wait to read more.
Additionally, I didn't notice grammar mistakes do I think you're good. Keep creating this masterpiece.
1997806 Beating Regidar isn't everything.
I look forward to reading this!
HELL YES
1998014 It was just a joke
But seriously, this is an awesome story
so far, I'm really enjoying this fic. you might have killed off my favorite pony, but i think it was tastefully done. everyone has to deal with death at some point in their lives, and as far as i can tell, you are portraying the emotions behind it rather well.
:O a sequel?!? was there another chapter saying something or a blog, or what?
edit: looking at my favorites right after seeing this, FTW.
Damn, I'm a bit sad now. But happy this story got a sequel, that will explore a bit more of the time Scoots and Vinyl shared together.
How did vinyl die? An accident I'm guessing?
I really love your work. Keep writing.
I don't know why I hadn't given you a watch until I saw this was up, it confuses me greatly for you are a great writer.
I don't mind I am a little depressed but I have read sadder stories.
"Promise me let your dream die. Promise me that you won’t let our song fade away.”
I'm pretty sure there should me a "you won't" before "let your dream die"
Did you write how sweetie belle and applebloom got their cutie marks? If so can you drop me the link?
wait.... a story with 14 likes and 169 total views made t to the featured page?
How the hell is that possible?
1998085 Vinyl is my favorite, too. It broke my heart to write this
1998280 This may be a little bit of a spoiler, but you'll see how she died in the last chapter. And I plan to write a couple fics explaining their cutie marks.
1998381 Fixed it, thanks!
1998458 I don't really know how, either. They re-featured my first story as well
1998022 And I knew you'd like this
Can't you write a happy story with Scoots and Vinyl please
1998014
lol no, but it is kinda satisfying
1998640 Well Regidar doesn't comment on every story, so I find it rather pointless. (All of my stories.)
Still, it would be satisfying if you did it on a story he DID comment on.
HOW IN HIGH HEAVEN DOES THIS GET FEATURED WITH 19 UPVOTES?
The feels...they hurt.
But seriously, this was a very good, touching story. Scratch got killed off in a good way, saving her daughter instead of...oh I don't know...liver failure from too much alcohol?
Will this be the last in the My Little DJ series, or will we be seeing more of their past, or possibly even Scootaloo's death/afterlife?
1998753 I might make a few other stories with the Vinyl and Scootaloo mother/daughter pair as canon
"We haven’t heard you knew song yet"
your new
In your fic summary you wrote "the joy music in her life" there should be an "of" in there i believe. I havn't read your sequel yet due to what time it is, but I sure will later.
"That was all that was needed to break the damn that held back Rainbow’s tears."
Uhh, do you curse enough on the interwebs for autocorrect to change dam to damn?
Edit: Suggestions? Stop ending every chapter with something that makes me want to cry...hopefully the next chapter will be happy...
[quote“Because as long as you love it, then it can never die. Everything you believe in, it’ll always carry on as long as you hold it close to you.”] Damn, that's good. Did you come up with that yourself?
...
Oh fuck yes
MY FEELS!!!
WHY YOU HURT MY FEELS
If you ever do more stories with the Vinyl/Scootaloo mother/daughter setting. Please don't make more sad stories, i can't take them.
Ignore CptAfroMan always Matthew stories like this you do great sad stories.
Opps heheh always do stories like this.
That's a new one.
Combination of stoic and solid.
I like it.

First fic that's made me full on cry
Oh my goodness... I cried at the end of this story. It was so amazing
2000400 2000746 2000763 Hahah just what I was going for
Don't worry I cried a bit too
I cried. Multiple times.
I am a man, and I have never been more secure in my masculinity.
Amazing story man, you manipulated the feels like a pro, and it was an honor to read these stories.
2001014 Thanks
I'm glad you liked it
Dear god. That was depressing.
At the very least, I'll never have to experience such a thing. Sometimes, it's good to be distant from family.
Not too well written, I did find a few mistakes and some things were so out of place it ruined the mood, but it was still a nice, short, sad read.
So... incoming "happy" alternate reality sequel? Surely you can whip up one where Vinyl lives?
I have never cried because of a fic before, but this one hit me right in the feels. RIGHT IN THE FEELZ!
i'll forgive you for killing vinyl because this was awesome. and so are you. when you wrote this i hope you felt awesome. because you are.
you write sadness soooo well, i think id very much like to see happy idash writing
Oh dear God... the feels. Each new wave of feels plunging daggers into my heart.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME YOU BASTARD!?!?!?
Seriously though, this is good. Gonna read more later. Also, quick mistake I picked up on.
Should be diarch. Anywho, awesome stuff. I'm gonna go try to wear the feels down by playing Super Smash Bros.
As much as it hurts to read this, I love it, and I loved My Little DJ, I almost cired reading this in Study Hall. I can't wait to read more. feels!
