Chapter 1
It was a chilly April evening, Vinyl Scratch was in his apartment. Cheese Sandwich just texted him about how awesome Pinkie Pie was. Pinkie pie was an awesome mare, but she was overecxited all day every day. The mail mare knocked on his door"It's open Cloudchaser," he called. Cloudchaser and Vinyl were like super glue and ductape. They always stuck together. Cloudchaser hopped on Scratch's couch and handed him aletter. Cloudchaser started babbling about her foal's first day in his new school. Scratch turned on the tv and flipped onto Disney channel. Cloud-chaser went silent. "Phew" Scratch thought, CloudChaser was his best friend, but she was a total motor-mouth.
While Cloud-chaser was debating on whether Cameron Boyce or Parker was cuter for a humanoid male, Scratch ripped open the envelope with his barbecue-sauce covered hooves. The envelope made Scratch's glasses fall off his cleanly shaven face. Cloud-chaser still couldn't realize what was going on, but he realized she wouldn't know what the hay singing was. The letter alone surprised the living shit out of Scratch ( not literally). There were 3 papers inside the gray envelope with a pink treble clef on it. He know it had to be bad news anyway, he read the first paper:
Dear Vinyl Scratch,
I've written this to ask a huge favour of you. I know we are not friends whatsoever, but I need a partner for the duet I'm singing on the Voice. I know that there are tons of classical music accompanists in Canterlot and Manehattan, but I need you to assist me in my duet. All of the other pop-stars backed out or already entered. My classical acquaintances don't believe in such " bog-wash". I do. And I hope you do as well.
With Hope, Octavia
"Wow, Looks like Miss Priss needs my help." He thought about it, pulled out his Pony-Pod and texted her back "Yep." He didn't want to overwhelm himself. So, he picked up a book from Twilight's library. It was titled the Greedy Hippo. The book began, " There was a greedy hippo. He ate everything in sight. From bees to peas, chips to cake he always had a bite. Now hippo, he was selfish. He ate everybody's food. He ate the cat's, the dog's, the cow's, he was very very rude. one morning after breakfast, he jumped into the lake. One big splash and he was stuck, that was a big mistake. Hippo, he sank deeper. Then he began to pout 'help i'm sinking, wont some body pull me out' The animals pulled and pulled as hard as they were able. Out he popped, ran past them all and ate everything on the table. The animals were angry and thought they'd play a trick. They made a pie from gunk and goo and fish and poo to make old Hippo sick. ' here you are, we've made a pie especially for you' 'Thanks ' he said ' I'll eat it now , i've got nothing else to do' first a nibble, then a bite, then a great big swallow. He then went back to the lake, the place he loved to wallow. But something wasn't right , he thought, he felt quite odd inside. he had a tummy-ache, the cooks looked on with pride. Hippo learned his lesson, it was the end of all their troubles. He was last seen leaving town, blowing poopy bubbles" Scratch loved the ending and decided to read his all-time favourite, Ratty Robs a bank. He read " This is Ratty, he is the worst rat in all the world . He is with his friends , Miss Whiskers and Cheddar Jack. They plan to rob the Bank of Britain. They climbed into the icky sticky sewers and crawled all the way to the secret bank entrance. ' okay rats, we're at the bank. Let's move out.' Tis the end of the day, and the cashier is counting money. Ratty yells' Gimme all the gold rat-face' Ratty shoots her with a bazooka and she dies. Cheddar Jack pries open the safe and stashes coins in his polka-dot undies. Miss Whiskers stashes the bank notes in her bra. They hop back into the secret entrance and run to their apartment. The next day, the police chief comes in to drop off a doughnut for his girlfriend, the cashier. Instead, he finds her all bloodied up and on the floor. He shrugs and shoves she doughnut in her blood-stained mouth. He finds the safe unlocked and knows only one rookie can help, Spy-Cat. Spy cat comes in and takes out a blue-gray liquid from his white tuxedo. He spritzes it on the cashier's dead body and says 'my signature scent, Formaldehyde.' Spy cat enters the vault and finds cheese crumbs. Hmm.. he thinks. Spy cat also finds a female rat-sized paw-print. 'I know who stole the stuff' Spy cat explained. He pivoted around, only to find the cop making-out with the cashier's dead body. Spy cat ignored the cop and found the secret entrance and crawled all the way to Ratty's apartment. Spy cat shot Ratty and his accomplices and then took the money back to the bank.
Scratch opened his eyes a bit more and realized that Cloud-Chaser left and he was alone reading The book began,
Scratch opened his eyes a bit more and realized that Cloud-Chaser left and he was alone reading. Scratch got up from his couch and found Octavia had texted him back. " Vinyl, wanna come to my production studios to practice?" He texted her "yup." Scratch walked downstairs and unlocked the front door to his condo. He hopped onto a taxi to 67th Street. It began to rain. He hopped out the cab and threw a ruby at the driver. Scratch stormed through the production studio and ran up the stairs to the recording room on the 15th floor. Octavia looked dazzling as ever, in her pink pinstripe booty-shorts and her pink chiffon blouse. Vinyl was embarrassed , for all he wore was a t-shirt and jeans. Octavia's silk-like voice was soothing when she welcomed him to the studio and explained a bit of the new recording tech that her company used. It became stone cold when she hissed " Let's get down to business" .Octavia began by starting her scales, and eventually Vinyl joined in. Then, they discussed the beat the song would have. "Maybe a 4/4 time" Scratch hinted at. Octavia agreed that this was the best because most songs had four beats per measure. Maybe this partnership would work out for the best.....
Chapter3: maybe I was wrong
After Scratch left, Octavia locked the recording studio, and (for the first time in a long time) she walked home to her mansion 4 blocks away.When she got to her mansion, she unlocked the french oak double doors and rushed to her window room. The window room was her special place. It made her feel warm and happy. Octavia rang her special golden bell, and her hired servant, Coco Pommel, brought her a robe and a change of clothes. Coco led her to the red tiled bathroom and began a pomegranate scented bubble bath. Coco closed the door and ran to assist Octavia's manager with scheduling tour dates.Octavia pulled her long black ponytail into a shower cap and slid into the warm water. The bathroom began to steam. As the steam wavered in the air, Octavia thought of her new boyfriend, Dr. Cabelleron. He was handsome, with his square chin, perfectly tanned complexion, stubble, and lovely tousled long hair. He understood the importance of cleanliness, reliability, and dependability. Plus, he understood she wanted to take things slowly. Then, she thought about Scratch. His hair was messy, he always had stains on his face, he never cared about his clothes, and lived in an apartment uptown. But, he was cute, and he spoke up for himself. The doctor was primarily in charge of their relationship. Then, she started to feel lightheaded. She got out the tub, dried off, and put on a dress for her date with the Doctor. Only this time, she wasn't sure if she was right or wrong about Scratch and the Dr.

At ten o' clock, Octavia wrote on a sticky note and stuck it in an envelope and mailed it to the Recording studio. At ten fifteen, the doctor picked her up from her mansion in his signature black limousine. When Octavia entered the vehicle, the doctor pulled her by the waist onto the seat . "good evening" the doctor said. "hi" Octavia. The doctor's driver sped across town in front of an apartment. The driver opened the door and let them out. The doctor led Octavia into the apartment. He unlocked the door and pushed her into a chair. "wha-" he threw the chair onto his bed and pulled out a needle
