This story isn't a sequel to One Date at a Time. This is just a one-shot fic where Feather Bangs attempts to hit on some mares.

For the sake of Dancing and Mares!

Above the recently opened boutique, Rarity For You, was the Club Pony Party Palace where anypony can come to dance the night away. DJ PON3 was on her mixer table so everybody could hear her sick beats. Feather Bangs was sitting at the bar while he took a sip from his drink. He thought coming to Manehattan could help him get away from the solitude from Starlight's village. The city felt different for Feather as most of the ponies were so busy with their lives that none of them said hello when trotting down the streets. Feather was lucky to get into this dance club despite the long line he had to wait in. After all, DJ PON3 was head DJ here so almost everypony would come and listen to her legendary music. Feather continued to pony watch the dance floor where a majority of the guests were dancing to the music. The poet stallion couldn't help but notice all of the cute mares who were attending the dance club. Feather knows he has some admirers back at Starlight's village, but there was nothing wrong with getting to know some new mares. The next song was starting to play when most of the crowd started to moved out of the way for three particular mares. One mare was pink and had reddish manes that were tied into pigtails. All four of her hooves had yellow, fuzzy leggings and she wore some beads with a purple pacifier on one of them. Another mare was purple with blue manes that was tied into a ponytail. Her attire was a dark blue cap, a dark blue vest, and a pair of light blue pants. The third mare was turquoise and had fuzzy pink manes that was held by a white sweat band. She wore loose green shirt with black straps and white bands on her hooves. The mares caught the attention of DJ PON3 as she grabbed a microphone.

"Looks like our raving trio is back for another night on the dance floor!" DJ PON3 hollered into the microphone. "Everypony give it up for Pacific Glow, Azure Velour, and Flashdancer!" The crowd cheered as some of them watched the three mares dance to the music. Feather couldn't keep his eyes off of the three mares as their bodies followed the rhythm to the DJ's beats.

'I have got to talk to them.' Feather thought as he got up and made his way through the crowd towards dancing mares. Pacific Glow was the first mare who spotted Feather as he went up towards the trio.

"Hey girl!" Feather yelled due to the loud music. "It's so nice to have a talented mare such as yourself on the dance floor!" Pacific Glow just rolled her eyes and turned the opposite direction to continue dancing with her friends. Feather felt a little offended from the way Pacific just brushed him off like that. But he decided to walk up to Azure Velour and see if she would like to talk to him.

"I love your outfit!" Feather hollered. "You really know how to dress in style!" Azure used one of her hooves to shoo away Feather as if he was a fly buzzing around her. Feather sighed as he made his last attempt by walking to Flashdancer.

"Did you do your mane all by yourself?" Feather yelled. "I prefer my mane style self-made as well!" Feather then did his iconic mane flip which didn't catch Flashdancer's attention at all as she was too busy dancing to the music. Feather grumbled as his attempts to talk to the mares failed. He slowly returned to his seat by the bar and ordered himself another drink. Feather took one sip from his drink before his head hit the table.

"I can't blame you, son." The bartender said while he was cleaning a glass.

"What do you mean?" Feather asked with his head up.

"Those three mares have always turned down every stallion who approached them." The bartender replied. Feather sighed from his hopelessness. The bartender gave a sympathetic look from seeing Feather acting so depressed.

"Look kid, I don't want to see you so sad. There is one way you could get those three mares' attention."

"What is it?" Feather asked. The bartender leaned closer to whisper in Feather's ear. Feather's face showed a mix of nervousness and excitement from hearing the bartender's answer.

"Will that work?" Feather asked again.

"It will work," The bartender replied. "they won't say no to you if you succeed." Feather developed a new sense of confidence as he made his way to DJ PON3. He slowly got closer and whispered something into the DJ's ear. She simply nodded as she picked up her microphone.

"Mares and gentlecolts!" DJ PON3 said through the microphone. "It has seems that one pony has challenged our raving trio to a dance-off!" The crowd was shocked to hear the announcement. Pacific, Azure, and Flashdancer felt ticked off for a pony wanting to challenge them.

"The challenger is...Feather Bangs!" A spotlight landed on Feather who looked confident for the dance off.

"I'm ready to show you mares my stuff!" Feather said as he flipped his manes which caught the attention of a few of the mares. The trio glared at Feather as they all went up to the center of the dance floor.

"You think you can out-dance us?" Pacific placed a hoof on her hip. "We're gonna out-class you so hard that we'll receive PhDs in winning!" Most of the crowd hollered from how well that insult was.

"You three better find yourselves a bunker." Feather said as he did a small spin with a mane flip. "Because I might blow you away." The music began playing and the competitors began to dance.

It was already ten minutes since the dance-off started and Feather wasn't looking so good. He was already sweating bullets while the trio looked fine. Each time Feather did a dance move, he was able to impress most of the crowd. When one of the trio performed a dance move, the crowd cheered louder than they did when Feather was on the dance floor. The trio could tell Feather was losing this dance off.

"You know, you got one last chance to quit before you get humiliated by us." Azure smirked. Feather growled from hearing the mare's suggestion.

"I still got some moves left in me." Feather panted as he was ready to do one last dance move. Little did he knew, he stepped on a puddle of his own sweat and it caused him to slip up. Feather was able to keep himself balanced enough to not fall. It still didn't stop Feather's hooves from slipping around. As Feather sees his slipping as a way to keep his hooves on the ground, the crowd saw it like some kind of dance move that caught their attention. Even the dance trio were impressed as their jaws were dropped from how awesome Feather's moves looked. Feather was finally able to stop his hooves from moving. He panted for a few seconds before he noticed that everypony was staring at him. Feather felt confused about why aren't they laughing at him for slipping. Instead, the crowd cheered with enthusiasm from Feather's 'awesome dance'.

"It looks like we got ourselves a winner!" DJ PON3 announced. "Give it up for Feather Bangs!" As the crowd yelled and clapped their hooves, Feather just smiled and laughed nervously. The crowd slowly returned to dancing as another song was played. Some ponies congratulated Feather before the trio approached him.

"Hey uh...Feather?" Pacific said to Feather.

"Oh, hey." Feather responded.

"I just wanted to say sorry for what I said earlier." Pacific hung her head. "We thought you were some poser who just wanted to flirt with random mares."

"But after we saw how awesome you danced, we now know you're one of a kind!" Azure cheered.

"How about we start over and get to know each other?" Flashdancer asked as she offered a hoof. Feather smiled as he shook Flashdancer's hoof.

"Hi, I'm Feather Bangs." Feather said which made the mares giggle.

"Nice to meet you, Feather." Flashdancer replied. "I'm Flashdancer and I love that mane of yours."

"Oh! T-thank you!" Feather said as he couldn't help but blush. The mares and Feather heard the crowd screaming as most of the ponies were running or being pushed out of the way. The source of the chaos was none other than Feather's three admirers as they came up to where Feather was. The admirers had angry looks on their faces when they saw the dancing trio near Feather.

"GET AWAY FROM FEATHER!" All three of the admirers yelled as they charged towards the dancing trio.

"Uh oh," Feather whispered as if those were his very last words.
