Here we go. Im on a creative roll right now! So lets see how Sharp Streak will handle opening night along with Vinyl Scratch's attraction to him. And also may find a new band member.

Chapter 4: Opening Night (Part 1)

Opening my eyes, I could see through the blurred haze at the clock. It read 12:25. I really must have slept in. Its good though, Im gonna be up all night anyways. I got out of bed and walked over to the kitchen and got myself some coffee. I took a shower and styled my hair touching up on my red streak. I moved into the club and did my best to get it cleaned. After I had gotten all the month old pizza boxes out of there I grabbed my bag and made my way to the door. I opened it and was once again blinded by the sun. I walked down the street heading towards the market to see if I could get a new set of headphones before the grand opening. Suddenly I heard some faint but distinct noise. What it sounded like to others was a massive onslaught of crashes, bangs, and booms. To me, it sounded like a musical genius.

I looked for where the music was coming from until I was standing in front of a simple house. I knocked on the door but whoever was playing had left the door open so someone could hear them. I walked in past my better judgement and made my way into a large room with a professional drum kit. The pony behind it was a red Earth Pony with a long flowing black mane. His cutie mark was simply two drumsticks crossing each other. He stopped playing and looked up, surprisingly not shocked that a complete stranger was in his home.

"So how's the music man?" He asked me.

"Wow that was amazing. How long have you been playing?" I asked stunned.

"Really not all that long. I started playing these drums about a year ago but Im just a natural at it." He replied.

"Um... Im Sharp Streak. This may sound a little forward but do you wanna be in my band?" I asked.

"No problem man. I've been wanting to share my music with he world but just setting these up on the street corner doesn't seem to do it. Im Sonic Beat by the way." He said.

"Great thats fantastic. Hey are you coming to the grand opening of the club later today?"

"Yeah man I've been looking forward to it for weeks now."

"Great. We can talk there. I need to get ready for it."

"Alright cool man. I'll see you there."

I walked out of the house and made my way to Riff's music shop. I walked in and started looking for the headphones. Riff suddenly stood at the end of the row, his sunglasses casting a reflection.

"Hey Streak, what're you looking for?" Riff asked.

"Im just here to get a new pair of headphones." I replied.

"Oh is that for the grand opening tonight?" Riff looked around the store to see if anyone else was there."Come here. I got something for you."

I followed him to the back room where he was working on his guitar. He walked over to a stack of boxes on the floor.

"I just got these yesterday. Though I'm not supposed to sell them until later this week, I think you should get an early release, manager's price too."

He opened the one of the boxes and revealed the new Beats Audio headphones. Just one of those were worth more than a phone, MP3, AND a tablet combined.

"Wow man thanks." I said.

"Don't mention it. It's my gift to you."

"Oh hey on my way over here I met this kid who could play drums in our band."

"Really? How good is he?" He asked quizzically.

"Rev good." I said.

He laughed at my little reference joke. "Well then I can't wait to see how good he is."

He took one of the boxes over to the counter and I paid the 200 bits worth for the headphones. I put them in my bag and headed back to the club. When I got there I saw Vinyl, Ace, and Rainbow Dash all helping set up. I walked over there and set my bag on the table.

"Oh hey Streak, we were wondering where you were. What did you get?" Vinyl asked.

"Ok check this out." I took the box out of the bag and the other ponies looked with shocked faces. "Bam. The new Beats Audio headphones."

"Wow Streak, what did you do to get this? These aren't even in stores." Ace asked.

"Riff actually sold them to me. He got these yesterday and saw I needed some headphones for tonight and he even sold them at an extreme fraction of the price." I said

"Nice they'll be good for tonight. Now c'mon we gotta get this place set up."

We got straight down to work. Vinyl was tinkering with some things on the DJ table. I was busy setting up some LED background lights behind the table, Ace and Rainbow Dash were flying the lights up to the ceiling and fastened and connected them. Time went by fast and soon ponies were lining up outside ready to get in. We were ready to open and we opened the doors. The dance floor was already filled with ponies and we were ready to begin. The lights dimmed and everypony started cheering. The background LEDs lit up behind us and silhouetted ourselves. A low bass tune started playing and Vinyl and I each grabbed mics. I had my headphones around my neck and Vinyl had her trademark goggles on.

"Fillies and Gentlecolts!" Vinyl began. "Tonight is the night we've all been waiting for. So without any further ado, we proudly announce that Club Vinyl Streak is now open!" Everypony went crazy with excitement and anticipation. Yo Streak, lets get this party started."

I scrolled through my playlists and found my favorite song "Scary Monsters and Nice Parasprites" and pressed play. Everypony started dancing and having a great time. A few hours passed and I got off the stage to grab some food. Then I ran into Sonic beat.

"Hey man. You know when you said you were getting ready for this I never expected that you would be getting this ready!" He said.

"Yeah well Vinyl asked me to do this. I just couldn't refuse such a great offer. So whats up?" I asked.

"Nothing much. Just hanging out." He looked away and then somepony got his attention. "Hey Streak, do you know who that is?" He asked pointing to an Earth Pony wearing a cowboy hat.

"Oh her? From what Vinyl told me she's Applejack. She actually helps run Sweet Apple Acres, she even catered for us tonight. Why do you ask?" Sonic Beat just stood oblivious to what I said. His attention was fixed on Applejack while she was dancing. I chuckled to myself, the thought of Sonic and Applejack getting together. It was cute. I grabbed a soda and some food and walked back to the table where Vinyl was DJ-ing and stood next to her. She then changed the song to "Falling Away With You" by Muse.

(Try reading this section while listening to the song) The LEDs turned to a bright pink. I turned my attention to Sonic Beat and saw him talking with Applejack and then they made their way to the dance floor. Everypony with a date was dancing together. I looked over to Vinyl to see her looking at me. She quickly turned away and blushed. I moved closer to her and put my wing around her. She looked at me and smiled, our eyes locking. She then leaned closer and so did I. We were so close, our lips about to touch.

Suddenly the entrance door broke off the hinges by some magnificent force.

"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!" The pony who knocked the door down spoke. "Hello Scratch." He spoke with a sense of pride.

The pony in question was a dark magenta Unicorn with a fireball cutie mark.

"Who the hell are you?" I asked flying to the stage.

"I AM INFERNO, and I am here to destroy you!" He said, his voice booming.

"And why the hell do you want to do that!" I said stepping forward.

"Because I am Vinyl's evil ex-boyfriend!" He boomed.

I stood with a confused look on my face, then turning to Vinyl. "Her what!"

OH DAMN! Scott Pilgrim-esque polt twist! Im sure a fight will ensue! This episode's OC Sonic Beat comes from DragonRiderandBioBolt. Maaaan that was a long one!
