The Wonderbolt and the Music Mares

Prologue: First Meetings

Soarin is having a rough day, at first it seems like it was going to be a fine day until he hears about the upcoming Gala.  He did not like going to theses things because everypony that is there are all the same: rich, snobbish and have nothing interesting to say.  Even if that one Gala where six random ponies came to it and actually made it interesting, he might even go as far as to say it was fun.

So he decides to go there even if those six won't be there.  He then puts on a fake smile that he puts on every time he goes there and does what he normally does, ignore the ponies all around him and concentrate on the music.  Somehow the music from that one grey earth pony cellist seems to help him get through the night and remain sane enough to not do anything crazy.

When he finally arrives and was about to go off near the stage, he finds himself in front ot Fancy Pants.  Now this pony is actually a good sort because he is not like everypony that is at the party and even his wife named Fleur is a nice mare.

"I say good sir, I noticed you like the music here?" said Fancy Pants

"Yea, it is good and dare I say wonderful." said Soarin

"You do know you could easily meet them if you want."

Soarin then develops a small blush and says "Well, I'm actually interested in just one of them."

"Well now," said Fancy "Which one is her?"

"The cellist."

Fancy then rubs his chin with his hoof and says "You mean Octavia, yes she is a fine one why don't you go meet her, her part is almost up and this may be your only chance."

Soarin then thanks Fancy Pants and heads on towards the stage while at the same time dodging anypony that are looking for him.  When he finally arrives there, he sees her putting her cellist away and says "Good evening ma'am, that was some fine music you played."

"Great, another one." said the cellist

"I beg your pardon, what do you mean?"

"I know your types, first they compliment my music, then they ask if I want to have a drink with them then all of a sudden they just want to use me for there own personal gain or to sleep with me."

Soarin then tries to think of something and says "Well I'm not one of them, I would never do anything of the sort."

The mare then turns around and says "Ok then, why are you here?"

"Just trying to find something interesting at this boring place."

The mare laughs at this and says "Well I would agree with you there, this party seems to be boring almost every year, except for that one time where this random pink pony came and actually made it funny in a way."

Both of them then laugh and Soarin says "Well now miss..."

"Octavia."

"Octavia, my name is Soarin and I hope to see you again."

"Well then you would heve to wait a month, I'm going to Ponyville to visit my sister that lives there."

Soarin then was dissapointed until he realizes that he has a months worth of vacation time saved up and he did not let Octavia know and instead says "Well now, I'm sure we will meet again soon."

"Ok then, see you soon."

After she leaves, Soarin then met up with Spitfire and says "Hey cap, mind if I take a vacation?"

Spitfire turns to him and says "For how long and is this about a mare?"

Soarin then gets another surprised look and says "Well, yes I want to see a mare thats going somewhere on a little visit and as for how long, a month."

Spitfire then looks at him with a suspicious look but changes and says "Alright fine, you do deserve it after all the hard work you put in besides, our next show is in an month."

"Tahnk Spitfire, you're the best."

"Whatever and by the way, who is this mare you want to see?"

"Well, she is going to Ponyville to visit her sister."

"Soarin, don't tell me what she is doing who is she?"

"Her name is," Soarin gulped and said "Octavia."

"The cellist!" said a surprised Spitfire "You do know about her sister right?"

"What is is about her sister that I should be worried about?"

"Well, she is a bit of an party animal and has a knack for music."

"Who is her sister Spitfire?"

Spitfire then takes a deep breath and says "Vinyl Scratch."

Soarins face now goes from surprise to shock.  At one point he had a crush on her and went out on a few dates, but it was only a minor fling and they broke it off.  But now hearing that she is the sister of Octavia his new crush, things could turn out more awkward then before.

His mind then goes on back towards the day they met,

(**)

Ten years ago

Soarin was busy doing a few tricks when he hears some sort of music coming from somewhere and when he goes to investigate, he finds an whit unicorn mare.  At first he was nervous, he was still a young colt and was just getting used to school.  So he then decides to go to her and talk to her.  After he lands he says "Hey there, what are you doing?"

"I'm makig music." said the whit unicorn

"Cool, what kind of music?"

"Well, I don't know yet but I will find out soon enough."

"Wow, anyway my name is Soarin." he said sticking out a hoof

"I'm Vinyl Scratch." she said while shaking his hoof

(**)

Present

Soarin then gets out of his thoughts and says out loud"This might gwt more awkward then before."

"How so?" said Spitfire

"Well, I once knew Vinyl before I became a Wonderbolt and well, we were more then friends at one point."

"Wow, an old crush that you once knew is in Ponyville and not only that she is the sister of your new crush.  That could be awkward."

"I know, what do I do?"

"Well, I'm sure Vinyl will accept you as a freind and welcome you back, as for the rest you have to figure it out yourself."  she said but then gets an concerned look on her face and says "By the way, why did you two break up?"

Soarin then takes a deep breath and says "Its a long story and I don't feel like talking about it."

Before Spitfire could say anything Soarin flew off and went home.

(**)

After Soarin went home, he lays in bed and thinks about what he is going to do, "What should I do, maybe I could go and Vinyl won't regonize me, but then she will and may not welcome me and would tell Octavia what happen between us.  Know what, I think I will go and take whatever happens head on"

He then falls back to sleep with a smile on his face and happy on his decision.
