Notes and Tails

I can't believe it..... I'm staying in Canterlot for a whole month with Vinyl and Octavia. thought Rusty as she entered the town. As a professional supermodel, she was required to travel to cities to compete against other supermodels for "Best Supermodel". She remembered bitterly how she had taken third place because she had forgotten a single red bow with her dress. A single red bow. Those damn judges...... She came to the apartment, and knocked on the wooden door.

"I'll get it." said a voice from within, then the sound of the door unlocking. As the door opened, Rusty came face to face with a white unicorn with turquoise highlights in a dark blue mane, and red eyes.

"Uh... can I help you?" the unicorn asked.

"Are you Vinyl Scratch?" Rusty asked uncertiantly.

"Hell yeah. You must be Rusty. I'm Vinyl Scratch, but you can call me anything you like." Chuckled Vinyl. "Come on in."

A grey earth pony with a well-kept black mane sat on the couch reading a book. She had a type of note for her cutie mark that Rusty did not know what the name of it was.

"Hey Octi! Rusty's here."

The earth pony looked from her book, and shut it delicately. "Are you sure?" She asked uncertainty.

"Uh.... hi." replied Rusty awkwardly as she adjusted her glasses. "You must be Octavia."

"Yes, that's me. Aren't you that model from Ponyville?"

"Yeah... that's me." replied Rusty sheepishly. "I take my glasses off and hide my scar when I go to these things."

"Why would you want to hide a scar?" asked Vinyl curiously. "I don't see a...... scar." she finished with awe as Rusty wiped off the concealer, revealing the red scar across her blue eye. "Dude... that's a wicked scar."

"Yeah... I got it when I was little. Don't ask me how." She flattened her ears.

"How can you be a model with a middle like that?" said Octavia as she pointed to Rusty's distended middle.
