The CMC DJs
"Well that didn't go s'well as I'd hoped." Applebloom said disdainfully as she was walking out of the library with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. "Sorry I dropped that dictionary on yeh Sweetie Belle."
"No, it's alright." Sweetie Belle said in reply. "It was only 10 pounds." She said, sarcastically this time.
"Let's go find something else to do! We need to figure out what our special talents are!" Scootaloo said excitedly. "Follow me!"
Scootaloo started running through the streets of Ponyville with Sweetie Belle and Applebloom close behind her. She eventually stopped at a place that said "PON-3 Club." They walked inside and saw a white mare with dark blue hair and a light blue highlight in it. She was sorting through records in a box.
"I'm sorry, but we're closed right now" The mare said without turning around. "Come back at 10. That's when the party starts!"
"We're not here for the party, we're looking to try and find our special talents!" Scootaloo said to her. "We wanted to know if you'd help us to see if our talent is DJing!"
"Wait you're not..." She turned around and gaped at them for a few moments. Aw buck. These three. I'm probably gonna regret it, but here goes nothing. "OK why don't you come over here and help me then. I could sure use a few extra hoofs."
"What's yer name anyway?" Applebloom asked.
"Vinyl Scratch. But when I'm DJing, I'm DJ PON-3."
"Well what do you need help with? Maybe we can find our special talents helping you!" Scootaloo said.
"Well Scootaloo, why don't you go upstairs and look for a box with the word "Records" on it. Applebloom and Sweetie Belle, you come over here."
All three of them looked at her in an odd way. "How do you know our names?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"How could I forget the names of the fillies who nearly burned down Sugar Cube Corner? It was all over the news!"
"Oh. Right." Sweetie Belle said.
"Okay. I need you to help me decide what songs to play." Vinyl said. "If you find a song you like, put it with those other ones. And Sweetie Belle, please don't use magic."
"Okay!" Applebloom and Sweetie Belle said almost at the same time. They then started working through the songs.
Now I can take a nap. Vinyl you are a genius. She closed her eyes and was almost asleep when a voice interrupted her nap.
"Where do you want this box Vinyl?" Scootaloo asked with the record box on her back.
"Put it over there where Sweetie Belle and Applebloom are. Then ask them to tell you what they're doing and help them."
"Yes ma'am!"
Now if theres no more interruptions, it's naptime. She closed her eyes and drifted off into sleep.
------------
"Vinyl?" Vinyl heard a voice calling to her. "Vinyl are you OK?" She started to open her eyes and saw Sweetie Belle, Applebloom, and Scootaloo looking over her with worry in their eyes.
"Oh thank goodness! I thought she'd passed out!" Applebloom said, relieved. "We finished what you asked us to do!"
"Really? And nothing caught on fire? Nothing bad happened at all?" Vinyl was astonished and relieved at the same time. "Why don't you come back at 10? I could use your help tonight too."
"Uhm, Vinyl, It's 10 right now." Scootaloo said to her.
"WHAT?!" Vinyl ran over to her table. Thankfully, nopony was there yet. But about five seconds later, 6 mares walked in.
"Applebloom? What in tarnation are you doin' here?" Vinyl recognized the orange mare from Sweet Apple Acres.
"We were jus' helpin' Vinyl Scratch so we could get our cutie marks!"
"Hold on now. At 10 o' clock, I'm not Vinyl anymore." Vinyl Scratch paused and then said "I'm DJ PON-3! And this is my club!"
"Maybe this was a bad idea Rainbow Dash, it doesn't seem like many ponies come here" A white mare with a purple mane said to Rainbow Dash.
"Relax Rarity! DJ PON-3 is the best DJ in ponyville! 'Sup PON-3?"
"Hey Dash! I see you brought some friends this time!"
"Yeah! This is Rarity, Applejack, Twilight, Pinkie, and..." Rainbow Dash paused and looked around. "Where's Fluttershy?"
"Right here" A yellow pony said softly as she walked in the door. "Sorry I'm late Rainbow, I had to tuck Angel into bed."
"Well while we're waiting for some more ponies to come, I'd like you all to know that these little fillies chose the music for tonight!" Everypony in the room turned to the three and applauded. "So without further adieu... LET'S SPIN THIS SHIT!"
-----------------
Throughout the whole night, tons of ponies came in. The music that the CMCs chose was actually a great selection. Everypony there was dancing and having a great time. At one point, Twilight came over to DJ PON-3.
"Hay DJ PON-3, can I make a request?" Twilight said unsurely.
"I can't play classical music Twilight. It's a night club."
"Why does everypony think I love classical music?"
"You... You don't?"
"No! My favorite genre is rock!"
DJ PON-3 stared in disbelief.
"I don't want to request a rock song though, Pinkie Pie actually sent me up here to request a song called 'Pony Rock Anthem.' Do you have that song?"
"By IDGAB? I love that song! Tell Pinkie I'll play it next!"
"Thanks! I'll go tell her."
She walked back over to Pinkie.
"The name of the band is IDGAB? You know what that stands for, right Pinkie?"
"Of course I do! It stands for I don't give a-"
Right at that moment the CMC's came over and Twilight shoved a cupcake in Pinkie's mouth to stop her from saying it in front of the young fillies.
"Hi girls! Are you enjoying the night?" Twilight said, trying to clue pinkie in as to why she did that.
"We sure are! Especially since we picked out all the songs ourself!"
"Well this next song is something I picked out!" Pinkie said casually "It's a great song to dance to!"
Just at that moment, DJ PON-3 stood up and said "Here's a song that'll get everypony dancin'!"
PONY ROCK!
Pony Rock is in the house tonight!
Everypony just have a good time.
And we gonna make you lose yo' mind!
We just wanna see ya.
Shake that.
"Whoo! This is my jam!" Pinkie Pie burst onto the dance floor and started dancing with everypony else.
Every day I'm shufflin'.
As soon as the singer said that, everypony in the room started doing some crazy dance that they all seemed to know exactly how to do.

Applebloom opened her eyes. She was in her bed at sweet apple acres. She had no idea how she got there. All she remembered was that she was at Vinyl Scratch's night club. She must've passed out during the night and Applejack took her home. She got out of bed and walked into Applejack's room. She was still asleep. Applebloom walked over to the bed and pulled down the covers to get in the bed, but as soon as the covers were down, she saw another pony in bed with her. Fortunately for Applejack, she was naive. Applebloom walked to the other side of the bed and woke up Applejack.
"Applejack? Why is Twilight in your bed?"
"What do you mean sugarcube?" Applejack asked groggily.
"Twilight sparkle is in your bed. Why is she there?"
Applejack realized what had happened. "Oh uhm. She... She was helpin' me take you home an' I let her stay here for the night so she wouldn't haff to walk all the way to her place!" Applejack lied.
"Applejack. You're a terrible liar."
"Well, uhm, why don't you go play with your friends? I'm sure they'd love to talk to yeh about last night!" Applejack said, changing the subject.
"Okay." Applebloom left the room knowing Applejack had lied.
Once she had left, Applejack turned and woke up Twilight. "Hay sugarcube? I don't think we should've drunk all that cider last night."
"Oh don't tell me." Twilight said in horror.
"I'm 'fraid so." They both blushed and Twilight left for the library.
-----------------------
"You know, I just realized that none of us actually did any DJing last night. We just picked out the songs." Sweetie Belle said.
"But the songs we picked out were awesome! Maybe if we DID DJ, we would be awesome at that too!" Scootaloo said in response.
"Then let's go!" Applebloom said as they all ran to Vinyl Scratch's club. They walked inside and saw Vinyl Scratch cleaning things up from the night before.
"Hay girls. You wanna help again today? Or are you here for something else?" Vinyl asked while continuing to clean.
"Well we realized that we never really got to DJ. We can't know if it's our special talent or not unless we actually try it." Scootaloo explained.
"Well if we get this place cleaned up, maybe I can teach you guys how to DJ." Vinyl said bluntly.
"Are you not having a good morning?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"Not really. But it's nothing you would understand." Together they cleaned the whole place in ten seconds flat. Top to bottom, the whole place was spotless. "Now let's get to those DJ lessons I promised you."
-------------
"You guys are fast learners! Why don't you three take over tonight, see how well you do?" Vinyl Scratch asked. "I'll pay you if it goes over well."
"Really?!" The three said at once.
"Sure. I'd love the day off." The three went to decide what songs to play, while Vinyl Scratch went to lay down. "Wake me at 10."
-------------
"Something bad was bound to happen eventually." Vinyl Scratch didn't seem surprised that her club was on fire. "Good thing I'm insured."
"We're real sorry Vinyl." The three had said it thirty times now.
"Hay, no sweat. Accidents happen. Besides, I'm pretty sure i saw somepony trip you when you spilled your drink."
"Thanks for bein' so nice about it." Applebloom was surprised at how nice Vinyl Scratch was. Everypony else got really angry every time they messed up. "We should go now."
"Welp, I guess our special talent isn't DJing after all." Scootaloo was dissapointed.
"See you guys tomorrow!" Sweetie Belle walked off from the group when they passed by Carosel Boutique.
"Tommorow," Scootaloo started to say, "We should try to be firefighters!"
