//------------------------------// // Febuary 24, 2014 // Story: High School Ponies (9th grade) // by AmethystFire //------------------------------// I hate Mondays! But the one good thing is that this week was that the twenty seventh of this month would make it one full month to my birthday. Yay! Following the same route to pick up the other ponies that are on the stop list for the bus. I started thinking about the My Little Human episode that I had missed due to family issues. Just to explain, I was in trouble for my messy bedroom and my punishment was doing laundry. Arriving at the school in Ms. Snapple’s classroom, she hadn’t arrived there yet; her classroom was empty. Kind of typical at 6:40 in the morning. My friend Harmony Wing told me that she couldn’t be with me today due to her friends. Which I completely understand; she told me later on that she would try to come and see me. It’s too quiet right now to write anything, no noise equals no inspiration. By about 6:45 Harmony, Timeless Crash, Cora, Stardella, and Black Ninja arrived into the classroom. “What is that Crystal?” Ninja asked me pointing at the notebook in my hooves. “My fan fiction and in the binder is every ponies character in this story.” I responded. Soon enough, Ms. Snapple had arrived in the classroom with her saddlebags. She set them down behind her desk and looked at all of us. I didn’t even look at her but I knew that she looked at us; at the moment I was too busy listening to Harmony and Ninja’s conversation with me. “Do you want to know about my story?” Harmony asked. “YES!” I quickly responded. Harmony explained to me what would happen in her story next as I wanted to tell Ms. Snapple my amazing new idea for her character. When Harmony finished telling me all about her story, I got up from the desk I was at and went to Ms. Snapple’s desk. Stardella, Timeless, and Cora were standing there as well. Grabbing my binder, I showed all of them their characters. “That’s amazing Crystal!” Stardella praised. “Thanks.” I responded. I handed Ms. Snapple her character. She picked up the little sheet of paper and smiled. “That’s amazing!” she praised. “I thought so! And your character likes to travel in time, but really can’t.” I explained. She just nodded her head and continued on what she was doing. She had a secret I could tell, but on what it was, only Celestia knows. The bell rang as I went on my way to Intensive Reading. We read all about genetics! Not like I don’t know what those are… No need for detail, I absolutely LOVED Intensive Reading today. *Eye roll* Outside in the hallway after the bell, I waited for Ninja to come from her class and go to her locker thing- a- majig. “Crystal? Where are you going?” Ninja asked as I took her down to the stairway away from the one that we usually when up. “This way, come on. You won’t be late to class. I promise you that.” I responded “Yeah right!” “Please~” She snickered as her and I both climbed the staircase to out next periods. My “InfoTech” class. The school finally got us a new teacher for this class months ago, but he wasn’t here today and I needed to leave at 10:15 to get pictures taken for chorus. Since he wasn’t here today, I started writing on my newest fanfiction, number 30 something this year, A Final Love Letter (Dear Derpy.) The doctor was leaving the human world to go home in the pony world. But he couldn’t leave without saying goodbye to his companion, River. Yeah, bit here comes 10:15 and I begin to leave the classroom to the courtyard. Having my chorus shirt on and ready, my hair all nice, which I hate. I left early to get a good spot in the picture. When the bell rang and the picture was taken, I headed upstairs to Ms. Snapple’s room. Yet, every pony that was there, beat me there this time. Drat! Huffing and puffing from climbing the stupid stairs with a hurt leg now, I set my stuff on my desk. “Hey guys,” I greeted, “my leg hurts, thanks for asking.” “What’s wrong with your leg?” Ms. Snapple asked. I told them what had happened; they all seemed to get it, well, almost all of them. “Ms. Snapple! When’s your birthday?” Timeless asked. Ms. Snapple told Timeless when her birthday was, “Why?” “I’m doing an all about you thing and I was just wondering.” “That’s kind of weird.” I said. “I’m going to start looking through your lunch box.” Harmony Wing said grabbing my lunchbox. “O! LET ME SEE!” Cora yelled as she went over to Harmony. “You can have all the other stuff. Except for these.” I pull out my cookies, “THESE ARE MINE!” “Okay, chill.” Timeless responded. “OH DANG IT!” Ms. Snapple randomly snapped. “What?” Timeless asked when she finished her raid. “I needed to go downstairs to give one of my students in ISSP their work.” “Oh.” “Well, Timeless and I could go.” Cora volunteered. “Could ya?” Ms. Snapple asked. “Yeah.” Cora and Timeless ran outside to do Ms. Snapple’s errand while Ms. Snapple, Golden Diadem, and I sat in there. Not talking to each other like we didn’t even know one another. “I can’t wait to time travel with your character Ms. Snapple. It’ll be awesome!” I randomly explained to Ms. Snapple. “Why?” she asked. “Well, it would be super cool to see my older self, and you too!” “Gee, thanks.” Soon the bell rang and I still didn’t get the chance to eat my little cookies. And I knew that I wouldn’t have had the chance to eat them later on. I wanted to have some, but then I remembered that I had plenty at home to eat, and I had told Ms. Snapple about them before. “Here you go Ms. Snapple.” I handed Ms. Snapple the cookies. “They’re for me?” she asked. “Yeah, I wanted to eat them, but I remembered that I had plenty of them at my home.” “Thanks.” “Inside, there is a peanut blossom cookie, a chocolate chip cookie, and one with no chocolate chips.” “Ooh.” “I’ll see ya tomorrow Ms. Snapple.” Trotting out to the cold cruel world and went to chorus. We sang songs like we always did, did all that good stuff, and I got to hang out with Firestar and Angel Von Valentine for a while. We had to go outside for our teacher’s dance or musical theater class to get their pictures. “Angel!” I called. “What?” she asked as I came up to her. “I finally drew your character for my fanfiction!” “YES! Do I look sexy?” “Duh!” “SCORE!” We went back into the classroom and sang some more and then the bell rang. Geometry, test taking day. Oh Celesia, this class period was going to be the most boring class ever! I went with the ESE teacher to test in a quiet room, which I thoroughly like. The test was easy. But when I arrived, my teacher looked at me and motioned me to come to her desk. I went up to her desk and looked at her strait in the eye. “You weren’t there for long? Did you check all your answers?” she asked. “Yes. Twice.” I responded. She nodded her head as I sat down at my assigned seat. I pulled out one of my composition books and wrote on my love letter fan fic. Slowly the ponies that came along with me started to come back to the classroom. Soon the bell rang for the end of the day, I waited for Icy Soundwave to get up from her desk so I could walk with her to the buses. “Hey Crystal! How do you think you did on the test?” she asked. “Eh… Alright. But it wasn;t that hard anyways.” I answered. “True.” We talked for a bit until we reached the bus loading doors and she went to the other side of the school. I was glad, when I arrived on my bus, and that I didn’t have to go walk the country mile to it. Thank you Celestia!
