The First Beat

It was late at night when she got home, still swaying her flank to the beats she had played only a few hours before. She entered her home quietly, through the back door, so the bell at the front one wouldn't wake her sleeping sister. She grinned, as she stopped by her fridge to grab a bottle of water, as she remembered how great that nights show had been.

She lost the grin and sighed, as she remembered how, for now, it was over, and she had to go back to being the one everypony else knew. She drank her water, and quietly trotted upstairs to her room, not noticing the sleepy, light green eyes widening as they saw her trot past to her room.

She quietly closed her door, and began the process of hiding the real her. She looked in the mirror on last time, smiling, before losing the smile, and opening her closet's secret panel. She took out the purple wig and fake tail, set them in front of the mirror, and begin combing down her wild dark and light blue mane. She styled it into a tight flat bun, and covered it with the wig cap, and attached the big, stylized wig. She did the same with her tail, attaching a fake tail similar to the wig.

Then, she took off her favorite tented purple glasses, revealing bright red eyes, which were soon covered by blue contacts. She decided she would put the false eyelashes on later, since everypony knew they were fake thanks to the MMMM incident. She laughed and drooled a bit, as she remembered how good it was, but quickly shook herself out of it to once again focus. She double checked everything, making sure nothing was out of place, and, before going to sleep, cast a simple 48 hour illusion spell, one of her specialties, over her cutie mark, changing it from a black music note, to 3 light blue diamonds. She, once again, briefly wondered why her element had taken the shape of the fake cutie mark, instead of her true one, before shrugging it off and crawling into bed. She sighed one last time, getting into her other self's mind frame, saying a few things to get her voice just right, before drifting off to sleep.

DJ Pon-3, also known as Vinyl Scratch, was once again gone, replaced by the fashionista mare, Rarity.

Author's Note:

So, this is just the first chapter, which gives the idea of what Rarity/Vinyl Scratch goes through to hide herself. I haven't decided yet which is her true name, leaning toward Vinyl, but, I do know for sure that the common party girl brash DJ characterization we have for Vinyl is her true personality. This chapter also sets up for the future story, I'm sure you can see where. Now, to those wondering about my other stories, well, Midnight's as basically been cancelled in favor of a visual version of it in the form of a tumblr, which has nothing on it yet, and won't for a while, not until I get more comfortable in a style of drawing. My other one, well, I don't know yet. I'll think of something for it. Until then, I hope you guys like the sound of this story, cause I have a lot of ideas for it, and I'll try to find/make some cover art for it as soon as possible. Later.
