"Wha... What the buck happened?!" Vinyl mumbled as she blearily opened her magenta eyes. The dark room shed no light on her whereabouts, yet the voice coming from behind her helped identify who she had bucked last night.

"Viy... Vinyl?" The pleasant deep tones of Treble Clef came from her back, and Vinyl grinned to herself.

"Heya Treble. Gotta go. Tavi'll be waiting." She managed to stand (somewhat shakily) and she crept towards the doorway with a drunken stupor, indicating the epic heights her party must have reached last night. Vinyl stood on something sharp, possibly glass, and swore in a manner un-befitting anypony's ears.

"What's wrong PON3?" Treble growled, his baritone voice causing Vinyl to shudder. She sighed, and illuminated the room with a faint blue tint from her horn. Looking down at what she had stood on, she recognized the amethyst glass from her shades lying shattered in a pile with the black metal frames bent and mangled.

"Buck. My shades..." Her magenta eyes filled with tears. She'd always kept her shades safe. They were the one thing her brother had given her before he left to train for the New Lunar Airforce.

"They looked cheap and flimsy anyway. Buy some new ones." Treble rolled over and instantly began snoring to himself. Vinyl clenched her teeth and wobbled back over to the bed. Using her magic, she flipped him onto his back and pinned him down. Opening his eyes, Treble gazed up at Vinyl with a panicked expression.

"The. Buck. Did. You. Say?" Vinyl hissed, her eyes full of anger and hatred, her hoof raised as she prepared to punch the white pegasus.

"N...nothing Viy..." He stammered, and she dropped him onto the floor before scooping up the remains of her glasses and pulling open the blinds. Blinding rays of sunshine danced through the window and hit Vinyl with such a force, she passed out instantly. The last thing she saw before the blackness overcame her was Treble lifting his hoof to punch her full in the face.
