The Adventures of Vinyl Scratch and Friends
In which the plot begins.
Vinyl Scratch is known for many things. Her DJ-ing skills, her attitude and sleeping through the changeling invasion.
One thing she is not known for is her sanity.
"What the hay!" screamed Vinyl. "Are you TRYING to get me killed?"
"Hey, don't blame me!"
"Oh, don't blame you, even though you attacked me!"
"Its not as if I had a choice!"
"You had plenty of choice!"
"Look, the die rolled 5, so I move 5 spaces."
"And you couldn't move backwards?"
"No, I couldn't!"
"Yeah, you could!"
"No, I couldn't!"
"Yeah, you could!"
"No, I couldn't!"
"Yeah, you could!"
"No, I couldn't!"
Octavia looked over at the two and sighed. She didn't know why she expected anything else from them. After all, Vinyl was Vinyl, and Lyra-
A yell of surprise interrupted her thought. Vinyl's horn was alight with magic, as was Lyra's. Between them was a small sphere of energy from which sparks erupted. Both had small burn marks on their faces, presumably from the aforementioned sparks. The gameboard between them was surprisingly not on fire. Octavia glanced over at Bon Bon, whose pink and blue curls hung over her blushing face, clearly embarrassed due to Lyra. She herself was greatly irritated with the two but had grown more resistant to it over the years. She adjusted her bow-tie before trotting behind Vinyl and tapping her with her hoof.
"Hey, can't you see i'm- Oh, hey Octy." Vinyl glanced round at her friend, which was enough to throw of her concentration. Before she could react the energy flew towards her and barely missed.
"Jeez Lyra!" cried Vinyl. "You didn't have to be that close!"
"Uh, Vinyl." Octavia piped up.
"I mean, I know you were trying, but THAT close!"
"Vinyl." Octavia was getting panicky now.
"Do you KNOW how much money it costs to get my mane like it is!"
"Vinyl." Bon Bon had joined in now.
"You know what, you can pay for this."
"Vinyl!" Lyra too had joined in the attempt to stop Vinyl's monologue.
"So I hope you have 200 something bits."
"Vinyl!" Octavia shouted.
"Hm, what is it Octy?"
"You're on fire!"
"I know I am, Its great isn't it!"
"No, you're LITERALLY on fire!"
"What."
Vinyl looked up. Sure enough, her multi-shaded blue mane was alight.
"AHHHH!"
The white mare began to run around in a circle screaming.
"Vinyl, what are you doing?" Bon Bon and Lyra had ran over to the screaming mare, and began consulting on ways to put it out with Octavia.
"Bon Bon," Octavia said. "Run and get Applejack." Bon Bon nodded and ran off. "Lyra, you have any ideas?"
Lyra's eyes lit up and she shouted."Yes! Vinyl, the well! The well!"
The DJ pony leapt into the well. The 25-something meters deep well.
"AHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhh...
"VINYL!"
-With Vinyl-
Luckily there was a pile of hay at the bottom. Convenient.
Vinyl pushed herself up. There was no water, but the fall had put the fire out. At least that was out. She raised her hoof and sighed when she only found a small amount of her mane left. She was hitting the spa as soon as she got out of this.
She stretched her legs and looked around. There was a small opening in the wall that she could probably fit through. Her ears perked at a familiar voice from above her.
"-nyl, are you there?" It was Octavia, the well making her voice echo.
"Yeah, I'm here!" she shouted back.
"Bon Bon brought Applejack here to help."
"Hi sugarcube. Is there anything down there?" the apple farmers accent came from above.
"Uh, there's a hole in the wall."
"Reckon that should take you through the old sewers. If yall' follow them you should make it out."
"Sewers!"
"Big Mac's won't be able to get here with the rope for bout' half-an-hour.
"Fine!" Vinyl threw her hooves up in irrate. "But I won't enjoy it."
"You're not supposed to."
"Nobody asked you Octavia!"
Vinyl sighed. She trotted over to the hole and peered inside. She couldn't see what was inside, because of how dark it was."Can you see anything?" shouted Octavia.
"No... It's too dark." Vinyl shouted back.
"Why don't you use your magic?"
"Oh, right." Vinyl rubbed the back of her head sheepishly, even though nobody could see her. Her lit up with a basic illumination spell and lit the hole.
"Is there anything I should know about the sewers?" she asked.
"Well, they were sealed up hundred of years ago by Princes Celestia. So be careful for anything dangerous down there."
"Okay, I'll be up soon." 'I hope...' she thought.
"Stay safe!" shouted Octavia.
Vinyl peered back into the hole, which was now lit by her magic. It looked like your typical sewer, except there were a few areas where the ceiling had collapsed, and there were some strange markings on the walls. She looked at the markings. They read:
'告警 - 的惡邪的老古封密心小 - 告警'
The mare didn't know what they meant, and assumed they were some sort of ancient language, so she decided to follow the path. One way was a wall, the other was darkness. She walked into the darkness, illuminating it as she went. When she came across some debris in her way she just levitated it out of the way with her horn, as she didn't want to trot into the sewer water. Who would?
She finally came across a T-way split. One way, however way a giant blockage of... Droppings, so she went the over way.
Eventually she saw what appeared to be a way out on the ceiling, along with a switch and wire that led to the exit. She assumed that she would have to pull the switch to open the exit, and so did as such. However, as soon as she activated it the ground began to shake and stones fell from the ceiling.
"Whu oh." Vinyl looked back where she came, from where a terrifying roar seemed to explode from. Her eyes widened and she scrambled for the ladder leading to the exit. Luckily, the lever had also opened the exit. She barely tumbled out of it before a pillar of flame shot out of it.
A somewhat female voice that seemed to come from everywhere at once laughed.
"HehehehehahahahahHAHAHAHAHA!"
A face formed in the fire, with an evil grin on it. Vinyl backed away.
"Thhaaaank youuu whiiiteee oooone, foooor rellleaaaasssingggg meeee. Fooooor thiiiis, I wiiillllll leeeett youuuuu liveeeee... foooorrr nnooowwww."
The flame swirled up in the air before flying out of the door. Wait, door. Taking a look around Vinyl noticed that she was indeed inside. She trotted out of the door only to come face-to-face with angry looking Octavia.
"What the hay was that!?"
