Since before she came to Ponyville, Rarity has been living a lie. She's never truly cared about fashion, clothes, nobility, or anything to do with that. Her true passion? Wubs.
I don't quite know what genre this story will fit into yet, don't know if I'm gonna have comedy, drama, things like that, so, I'm just gonna have it tagged as random and AU for now, until I have more written and know for sure whats in it.
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.
Sweetie Belle awoke that morning, feeling a little groggy, before the memory of what she saw last night snapped her to full consciousness.
~flashback~
She had just been about to fall back asleep after getting a drink, when she heard somepony walking up the steps. She sleepily walked over to her door, and cracked it open, to be surprised seeing a pony she remembered from her sister's failed fashion show a long while back, and from the recent wedding reception to the wedding she and the other crusaders got to be flower girls for.
The mare in question was heading towards her sisters room, so she quietly followed her, inching her sisters door open a crack after it had been closed. She watch, silently shocked, as the mare went from being the DJ go from, well, the DJ to her older sister, Rarity. After her sister, at least, she assumed so, was done and went sleep she snuck back to her own room, where she sat for a bit thinking about what she had saw, before she soon feel asleep herself.
~end flashback~
She still wasn't fully sure what it was she saw, but she knew for one thing, she was gonna get to the bottom of it. She got out of bed and got ready for the day, and headed down stairs, where she found her sister acting and looking like she normally did. Rarity didn't notice the slightly suspicious looks Sweetie gave her, as she got her food, and then off to school.
When she got there, she quickly found her friends, Applebloom and Scootaloo, and told them she saw something interesting last night. Before she could tell them, the bell for school rang, so they hurried inside, and she told them she'd tell them later at the clubhouse.
After school, they met up, and Sweetie Belle told them what she saw. She both had surprised looks on their faces, Scootaloo especially.
"No way, their is no way your sister is DJ Pon-3. She's almost as awesome as Rainbow Dash, and your sister is no where near as awesome as those two." She said to Sweetie.
"But, it's true. I saw her open a secret compartment and everything where she pulled out wigs for he mane and tail. I can even show you it." Sweetie replied.
"Fine, if it's really there, I'll be willing to try to help you prove it." Scoots told her.
They left the treehouse, and rode to The Carousel Boutique. Luckly, for them, Rarity wasn't there, so they were able to search her room. After some searching, they found the panel, shocking Scootaloo a bit more. They decided the would figure out the truth, and decided to start with one of Rarity's closest friends, Fluttershy.
"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS SECRET FINDERS, YAY!!!"
They left the boutique, and right before they got to Fluttershy's cottage, Sweetie realized something.
"Hey, if Rarity's been keeping it a secret, how would any of her friends know?"
Scootaloo stopped, and they thought for a few seconds.
"...They, wouldn't?" Applebloom replied, and they all faced hooved.
"Well, then, if we can't figure out what's going on that way, maybe we should try spying on her, or, finding a way to get the wigs off and stuff." Scootaloo suggested.
"Or we could just ask her." Applebloom replied. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo thought about it for a few seconds, before they both replied, "Nah."
Applebloom rolled her eyes and muttered, "Whatever." and soon they were off to find Rarity to spy on her.
