This is the story of her life in Crystal High School, and how she makes her mark in life. Warning: Contains awkward facts in our life. Thank Ms. Snapple. Just as a warning, almost all catergories apply to this story, even conflicting, but not too much to conflict. Want to read the main character backstories? Click Here!
It all seems like a daze; all I remember this morning was waking up from my comfortable bed, getting on the quiet bus (which is a blessing to me from middle school,) and then arriving at my high school, Crystal High. It’s the Crystal Empire’s version of high school. I came from the middle school down the street, which you can guess was called Crystal Middle School. When I was there at the school I had made so many friends. Dream, Rainbow, Stardella, Regina, Timeless Crash, Cora, and Jewel. I went from 10 or 20 in middle school, to at least 5 here. Oh geeze, where are my manners, my name is Crystal Feather, the author of this story. My class periods are quiet normal, but the electives are like nothing you could ever have. According to my schedule I have Journalism, Chorus, and Info Tech. I heard that they were out of this world! I’m glad that I can sing, but not as good as my friend Stardella. Well, let me end this chapter, it was mainly about me, but let’s get to the real story!
Sitting in the front seat by the door of first period, with a white filly behind me writing like me! Soon my old pal Scout O’ Hare, or Scout came into the room and sat in the desk on the opposite side of the room. I was glad that we had one class together. Soon the bell rand, and it wasn’t a nice ring; no, it had to be the most annoying bell possible! The teacher in our room got up from his desk, closed the classroom door, and stood at the front of the class room. He introduced himself and told us what he taught, English One Honors, not like I already knew that.
“Let’s try and get to know each other. You go first.” He said pointing at me.
Yeah, I was nervous! My heart started to race as I finally got the guts to speak.
“My name is Crystal Feather, I came from Crystal Empire Middle School, of course. I love the write and draw.” I answered.
He simply nodded his head and went to the mare behind me.
“My name is Harmony Wing, I came from Everfree Middle School. I love to write fanfictions for anime ponies.” Harmony Wing said.
The teacher continued on as I turned around and looked at Harmony Wing
“You write fanfictions?” I asked.
“Totally! Would you like to read one?” she asked.
“Would you read one of my stories?”
“Sure.”
I opened my green binder with my first completed novel Flying Dreams. And she handed me one of her stories. It was amazing, the story had so much detail, and it made me feel like I was really there. She finished reading my story and I finished hers.
“What did you think?” she asked me.
“I loved it, just the details. It made me feel like I was in the room with the characters. What about mine?” I asked.
“I liked it, but you NEED details.”
“Well, I know that now.”
“But I do have to say, your story was good overall.”
“Thank you.”
Things grew silent. Harmony and I didn’t talk anymore during the entire class period. I wasn’t sure that I hit it off, but I knew that I would see her next class, maybe it would be better. But who am I to know the future at all. I trotted into my next class, Journalism. The teacher seemed nice, but, “You can’t judge a book by its cover,” is what I learned from watching My Little Human. Season 4 was coming, but not until November, and it’s only August. UGH! Why can’t time go faster?!
Anyways, the bell rang and I sat next to Cora, my friend from middle school! Yay! The teacher introduced herself, Ms. Reelz, telling the entire class what she did. Soon, I pulled out my composition notebook and thought for a moment
What could I write about?
Then it came to me.
Ah! I could write a letter to friends. Twilight Sparkle could be writing a letter to her friends before she dies. Yeah.
I grabbed my pencil and began to write. So into my story, I didn’t even hear my name called.
“CRYSTAL FEATHER!” Cora yelled trying to get my attention.
“What?!” I snapped.
Cora pointed up.
“Oh.” I blushed, “Oops.”
Explaining my life and what I loved to do, Ms. Reelz said good and moved on to the next pony. I looked at Cora, and then looked back down, and continued to write;
Fluttershy, element of kindness... She really is the kindness, quiet and lovable pony I've ever met. When we met was probably the weirdest moment in my life. She softly told me her name, then hid behind her mane, backing away like I was going to hurt her. But then when we went together on the journey, she saved us from the Manticorn by showing him a little kindness, caring for his paw, that somehow had a thorn in it. He acted like a little kitten as we passed by, her mane was all messed up, but she taught me about kindness that day. I remember the time when Iron Will came to Ponyville, earlier on Rarity and Pinkie Pie wanted her to be assertive. But when she took Iron Will's advice, she became the meanest pony in Ponyville. Everypony was afraid of her, hurting them. But when she made her best friends cry, she finally realized that she went way too far, she was assertive in the nice Fluttershy way we knew and loved. And the time when she came over her fear of flying when many ponies are watching. And her fear of dragons when we were in danger. She really is the element of kindness, the best at it.
Soon Ms. Reelz finished with the class and handed out some papers, which I finished within minutes, so then I could continue writing my story.
When the bell rang it was finally lunch time. I could finally eat my peanut butter and grass sandwich, yum. I started on my way to the cafeteria when out in the distance, I noticed Stardella, the only alicorn mare that wasn’t a princess that I knew and loved.
“Stardella!” I called to her.
“Hey Crystal! How have you been since I last got to see you?” Stardella asked.
“Good. My first day has been alright so far. I’ve been too busy writing today, I haven’t really done anything with any pony else.”
“Well, not like that’s normal for you.”
“Hey! What about you?!”
“Um… Let’s not worry about that right now.”
“Mhm.”
I knew that she at least had a day like mine, almost, but somewhat different. We sat down on the table near the front entrance door. Sat, had lunch, kind of don’t have to go into much detail.
The bell rang again, science. UGH! I really hope this year I didn’t get a “waste time for random crapped lectures,” kind of teacher. I felt bad that I had to leave Stardella to her own abilities now. Trotting into the classroom, apparently my teacher was sitting at her desk, interesting. But, nearby that desk was my friend Black Ninja, by herself. A free desk next to her, THAT WAS AWESOME!
“Ninja.” I whispered tapping on her shoulder.
“Hey. Do you have this class?” Ninja asked.
“Why am I standing here? Isn’t it a total duh that this is my class?”
“Oh, yeah, duh.”
Setting my things under the desk next to Ninja, I showed her the story that I was working on.
“Oh my Celestia! This story is off to a great start!” Ninja commented.
“Thanks!” I responded.
The late bell rang, as my teacher got up from her desk and stood up in front of the classroom.
“This is our class? Wow.” The teacher questioned.
Ninja and I giggled at that remark.
“Um hello, my name is Ms. Snapple, I’m your physical science teacher.” Silence, “Okay, why don’t we introduce each other by doing two truths and one lie.”
She went around the class, some of the ponies went, and others passed. When she reached Ninja and I, she pointed at me indicating my turn. I was nervous, but this was happening all day; so I tried to say, “My name is Crystal Feather, um, I love to draw; I love to write, and I play an instrument.”
“WRITING!” the class roared.
WERE THEY ALL CRAZY?! If I didn’t write, why would I have a notebook that was filled with writings?! I shook my head angrily.
“Well, what is it?” Ms. Snapple asked.
“Playing an instrument.” I answered not trying to strangle any pony.
“I thought you did?” one pony that I knew in middle school asked.
“No. If you give me an instrument, I will look at you like you have lost your mind.” I responded.
“I would’ve guessed the writing as well.” Ms. Snapple mentioned.
Why would they think that I don’t like to write! They all were crazy ponies, even Ms. Snapple. Anyways, Ms. Snapple continued on with Ninja, who being the secretive mare that she is, wanted to pass. Ms. Snapple wanted her to go, but Ninja was refusing. I rolled my eyes at Ninja just being her. When the entire class went, Ms. Snapple passed out some papers, which were easy. Ms. Snapple seemed to be a great teacher, one that I would really like. But like I have said, it’s only the first day.
And guess again, the bell rang again. At this point I was ready to throw the sound maker thingy that did the bell out of a three story building window. Soon I arrived to my next class, World Cultural Geography. But accidentally I trotted into a science classroom at first, then made it to the class on time. Same things happened like all day, introduced each other and worked on some work. No need to go into detail.
It’s now the second day of school; my elective days, all that I would absolutely enjoy. Well, with the exception of Intensive Reading. I had it back in the sixth grade, and I really hoped that I would never have to get it again.
Getting off the bus, I saw Stardella and Black Ninja get off their bus.
“NINJA! STARDELLA!” I called.
The both of them turned around and saw me.
“Hey Crystal.” Stardella answered.
“How was the last periods of your days yesterday?” I asked.
“Same old same old.” Ninja answered.
“Same.” Stardella answered.
We chatted for a bit until the stupid annoying bell rang again. I went to intensive reading; yes I had it first period, hurray. Trotting in there, I saw only one group of desks that were alone; I sat over there. But then another mare came in and sat with me, which made me a little uncomfortable, but the bell had already rang and it was too late to move. Just to be honest with every pony, all we did was talk.
Going onto my next class, Information Technology. YEAH RIGHT?! All that was there was a bunch of stones piled in front of a chair! Evidentially, what I found out later was that, the teacher in there was a sub. She told us that our teacher would come back soon. The entire class period we talked, and I wrote.
Soon the bell rang again, and it was time for lunch.
“Crystal!” Honey Petal called.
“Hey Petal. How are you?” I asked.
“Good, my first day has been okay. Did you even notice that we are in a class together?”
“Which period?”
“Fourth period, last period yesterday.”
“Oh yeah I remember.”
We sat down with an orange mare that had a red and yellow mane. She looked familiar, but I couldn’t quiet put my hoof on it.
“Is your name Crystal?” the mare asked me.
“Yes?” I questioned.
I was confused, how did this strange mare know my name?
“It’s me, Firestar.” She said.
My eyes widened, Firestar was my best friend back in the fourth grade. On the first day of school back in fourth grade, she and I sat next to each other, and we talked about some random things for the life of me, I can’t remember what they were, and that was the start of a wonderful friendship that would last forever. I got up from the seat where I was at and gave Firestar, which was the first time in many years that I got to hug her.
Turns out, we have chorus together; which was at this point right now! I sat next to Firestar and we talked for a bit. I thought that she and I would be able to sit next to each other for the whole school year; WRONG! Our teacher got us to stand in front of class and sing a song that popped into our heads first. I have never been so nervous in my entire life! I was trying to think of a song that I could sing.
When the mare next to me started, I FINALLY came up with a song to sing. “For Good,” from the movie/ play “Wicked.” Then, came my turn.
“I’ve heard it said. That people come into our lives, for a reason. Bringing something we must learn, and we are lead to those.” I sang.
“That’s enough,” The teacher responded, “A beautiful song, along with a beautiful voice.”
She was right, I did have a nice voice; and picked a great song for it. I blushed a bit.
When the class finished she split the class up; bass, tenor, alto, and soprano. When she called my name and told me that I was in soprano, I was so happy! This was great, well, all except the fact that Firestar was on the opposite side of the classroom. When we all sat down, the teacher had a sing the star spangled banner; human version.
The bell rang yet again and I had to leave Firestar; which I really didn’t want to do. I had to go to geometry, like I really wanted it. No detail needed to explain this class, cause I dislike it that much.
Upon heading home, I went to work on my fanfiction, hoping to finish. And got prepared for the next 179 days of school of my life.
What happened in process as of this day Febuary 21, 2014
Instead of explaining what has happened in so many chapters, cause my memory sucks very much. I decided to do it all in one chapter! I met 10 amazing new friends this year, yay! Pony Paint, Super Junior, Harmony Wing a little more, Princess Marinette oddly she isn’t an actual princess, Angel Von Valentine, Confetti, Black Sheep, and Icy Soundwave. Plus, I really got to know my science teacher Ms. Snapple, and my Journalism teacher Ms. Reelz. For how I got to know Ms. Reelz was that I really didn’t want to go outside to the cafeteria, so I stayed in her classroom and got to know her well. But, then there was Ms. Snapple for whom I really enjoy.
For the reason that a lunch and morning thing that started, let me explain this before you skip this chapter and get confused on why Ms. Snapple is in the story so much. One day I was upset with Stardella for some reason and I wanted to get away. I remembered that Ms. Reelz usually had some ponies come in her classroom, and the last thing I wanted to do was snap at some random pony, and then cry. So, I thought about Ms. Snapple’s room. I asked her the morning before if I could come, luckily it was an A day, which she was my next class after lunch. She said that I could stay, so then I didn’t kill any pony.
I went in there for the first time and there was no pony in there, thank you Celestia. After I figured out why I was upset with her for whatever reason. I didn’t go back up to Ms. Snapple’s room. Two days go by and I decided to go back into Ms. Snapple’s. At first it was just at lunch, I would come and keep her company. Then, out came to the point that instead of being out in the cold cruel world, I went into her class every morning and every lunch.
It was just her and I for a while, until Timeless, Cora, Stardella, Firestar, Angel, and Harmony Wing found out where I had been hiding. For a while it was just Timeless, Firestarm and I came into her class. Soon, almost all my friends found out where I was and started coming with me, like some kind of stalker.
Yes, there are days where I would like it to just be Ms. Snapple and I again, but there are also days where I’m glad that they are all there.
It’s now February and time is of the essence at this point, especially with my friends that are leaving me behind. Hopefully they won’t forget me. I also hope that I can be good at something, I hope that I can make it, and make my mark.
I guess I am going through some growing pains right now because the tops of my hooves hurt so much, to the point that it is making them numb. Coming into Ms. Snapple’s classroom, she hadn’t even arrived at the school yet and I remembered that I needed to turn some artwork to my Journalism teacher for my article. So, I got up and trotted outside, seeing Black Ninja on her way to see me.
“Come with me.” I ordered.
“Wait! Where are you going?!” she asked.
“I need to go see Ms. Reelz, so I could turn in my artwork.”
“Okay, I follow you.”
“Good, because you had no choice.”
“WHAT?!”
I snickered.
Heading down the stairs and into the pod room, Ms. Reelz wasn’t at school either. Well, there was no use and just standing there like idiots. So Black Ninja and I went back up the stairs to Ms. Snapple’s room; where inside was Timeless, Cora, Stardella, and Ms. Snapple.
“Crystal!” Timeless announced.
“Hey. Ow.” I responded.
“What’s wrong with you?!” Stardella asked.
“I guess I am going through some growing pains now, but soon I’ll be fine.” I answered.
“Did any of you all see your grades?” Ms. Snapple asked changing the subject.
“Yes, I believe that I have like a B.” I answered.
All of us talked for a bit until the first bell rang.
“Oh shit!” I suddenly remembered.
“What?” Black Ninja asked.
“I didn’t even read the chapters I needed for English. I’m in deep shit.”
Trotting out of Ms. Snapple’s class, I told her that I would see her later. Going into English, Harmony Wing was in the same desk as she had always been in every day.
“Hey Hamony!” I greeted.
“Hey.” She responded.
“Did you get to work on your fanfiction?”
She didn’t answer me for a second. To give you all some background, Harmony Wing was working on a fanfiction which I got to make a character and be a part of it. That was awesome!
“Do you wanna hear about what last night?” she asked.
“Sure. Why not?” I questioned.
“Well, my stepdad wanted to make up with my mom. So he told me, ‘Come on Harmony, we are going for a ride.’ So we went to go get my mother. Went to dinner, shopping, and all of that. By time I got home it was 10:00pm, and I had homework to do. Yeah, that was done by midnight. And I was so tired by then.” Harmony explained.
“Ah.”
“Good morning class. Here is what we are going to do today. Did any pony finish the chapters 9 – 11 discussion questions?” Mr. Sonnets asked.
Silence.
“I’ll take that as a no.” He looked disappointed, “Well, you were supposed to do that for homework. I’ll let you all work on it for the first part of class, but then we have to take the quiz.”
All we did was work on the stuff for To Kill a Mockingbird. Which was a joy and I wish that I could do it all again!
When the bell rang, Harmony and I were not hesitant to leave that classroom today. We grabbed our stuff and got the hell out of there! We walked together to our classes. Harmony went to her class and I noticed Black Ninja at her locker, so I began talking with her and Icy.
We talked for a little bit; it wasn’t until I noticed out of the corner of my eye that I saw 2 dark colored stallions fight. Ninja and I went to the doors, just to be out of the way and let the chaos break. Whistles blowing, ponies laughing, oh the chaos. When the fight ended, the bell rang. Ninja went to class and I had to wait a few seconds before I could go.
Pony Paint and Super Junior were both in the classroom. I sat my stuff down on the desk next to Junior.
“Oh.” Pony Paint said.
“Oh, I didn’t even notice that your stuff was there. I’ll move.”
“Yeah, but its fine.”
“No, if your stuff is there, I’ll just move.”
“No, it’s alright.”
He sat down in the desk behind Junior. I shrugged my shoulders and then sat in the desk.
“Hey Crystal!” Super Junior greeted.
“Hey Junior!” I responded.
She laughed and so did I. Ms. Reelz got up in front of the class and announced, “Good morning, um, here is our daily reading for today. Get working on that and then go to your fourth articles.”
Grabbing my rock, I started on the daily reading and then worked on my article for the recent movie, “The Lego Movie.”
The bell rang for lunch and I went on my upstairs route to Ms. Snapple’s room. When Firestar came running for me. Super Junior went to the cafeteria and Firestar and I headed up the stairs. When we arrived, Timeless, Cora, Ninja, Stardella, and of course Ms. Snapple; but this interaction seemed quite odd, Ms. Snapple was on her phone, and her rock read some kind of medical place that I have never heard of before.
I started to talk to my friends Stardella and Ninja.
“I’m really enjoying My Little Human, the newest season, so far” I started the conversation.
“And of course you know that Castle is boss!” Stardella said.
“I have tried to watch Castle, but I thought that it is just a waste of time.” Black Ninja responded.
Stardella stared angrily at Ninja, the look on her face was just the look, like she was about to kill some pony. Grabbing my pen, I gave it to her to click.
“You might want this.” I exclaimed handing her the pen.
She took the pen and began clicking it.
“What are you doing?” Timeless asked.
“Clicking this pen, so that way I don’t kill any pony.” Stardella answered.
Soon, Ms. Snapple got off her phone, and didn’t look happy. Oh Celestia, all hell was going to break loose.
“Don’t you just hate it when you feel like you are dying and you want to go to the doctor now. Well, they can take you two weeks from now! Um, hello! I’m dying here! I need a frickin appointment now! No, we can only still take you then!”
I could tell that she was wanting to just punch a hole in a wall or something. The “Poison Oak,” that was the arms of her front hooves were really starting to get to her. The majority of the group chuckled.
“I don’t mean to be like gossiping or anything,” Ms. Snapple asked after she calmed down just a bit, “What had happened at the fight? Who did it?”
“Well…” Stardella told Ms. Snapple the whole story.
“Oh.” She responded after the explanation.
“Two dark stallions were fighting?” Cora asked.
“Yeah!” Stardella answered.
“It doesn’t make – wait – what?” Timeless asked.
“Two dark stallions aren’t supposed to fight, they are supposed to shoot each other in the face.” Black Ninja commented.
All of us started to laugh. Ms. Snapple turned around in her chair.
“That was racist!”
Stardella fell to the floor laughing, I have to admit, so did I, but on the desk. Soon, I looked over at the time and it was two minutes before the bell rang.
“NO!” I whinned.
“What?” Firestar asked.
“The damn bell is going to ring soon.”
Soon the bell rang, I finally just got use to the annoying ass bell. Firestar grabbed her stuff and trotted out of the classroom.
“See ya later Firestar! I’ll try and write more later! Maybe this weekend!” I called out to her.
“Okay! Have a good weekend!” she called.
“You too!”
All of my classmates started coming in as I went to Ms. Snapple’s desk. She took a deep breath and rolled her eyes.
“I really wanted an appointment today. I feel like going inside their office and say, ‘I’m here. Aren’t you going to take me?’” Ms. Snapple explained.
I stifled a laugh, “I would have done the same thing, I don’t blame you at all.”
Setting my saddlebag up on my desk, I opened my notebook “Atlantic High School.” Each of my friends had characters on which they got to name. Mine was Katie, Firestar was Allison, Stardella was Katy, Timeless Crash was Nakia, Cora was Nakhol, and Black Ninja was Emily, but Ms. Snapple didn’t have a character name. She is like the major part of the story.
When my classmates went to their desks and away from Ms. Snapple, I trotted up to her.
“Hey Crystal. What’s up?” she asked.
“I’m working on a fanfiction and I need a name for your character. And I thought that it would be 20% cooler if you came up with the name.” I explained.
“Can I tell you at the end of class?”
“Yeah, take all the time you need.”
The bell rang and Ms. Snapple was in the front of the classroom.
“Hey guys, well today we aren’t going to do much, just review about Endothermic and Exothermic relationships. And then I have a documentary that we can watch.” Ms. Snapple announced.
She showed us Endo and Exothermic relationships on the dry erase board and then turned on the documentary. The bell rang on time as the others left.
“Ok Crystal. I came up with a name that fits my personality. And I came up with Ms. Bowen.” Ms. Snapple told me.
“It does fit your personality.” I responded.
“I knew it!”
“If you want to change the name of your character, let me know.”
“Certainly.”
“Okay Ms. Snapple. I’ll see ya tomorrow.”
“See you later Crystal.”
Going downstairs to geography, I remembered that we were going to watch a movie in his class today. Hurray! We were going to watch Captain Phillips; all I have to explain to you was what happened after the release bell.
I went up to Mr. Canyons.
“Hey Crystal what do you need?” he asked.
“Can I use your phone to call my mother? So then she could come and pick me up.” I asked.
“Yeah sure.”
Grabbing the phone, I dialed my mom’s phone number. She answered the phone, but she didn’t seem too happy.
“WHAT?!” she snorted.
“Can you come and get me from the school?”
“Why can’t you take the bus home?”
“The thunder and lightning?”
Just so you all know, I am petrified of the thunder and lightning, when I’m standing outside. My fear of it, is that the lightning will come and electrocute me, and the thunder because of the noise factor. I don’t really like loud noises.
“Just take the damn bus!” my mom snapped.
“Fine.” I calmly said.
She hung the phone up on me. Placing the phone down into its spot, Mr. Canyons looked at me.
“Did you hang up on your mom?” he asked.
“No, she hung up on me.” I responded.
Going onto the bus with fear in my eyes I sat down by myself until I reached home and let out the water works. Because of the fear, disappointment, and pure anger.
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!
If you are reading this chapter now, I am probably about thirty years old, and you may not know me as an author. If you want to know what happened, why I’m saying this? Read on.
-Flashback-
It’s Tuesday morning, getting off the bus I saw Ms. Snapple start coming up to the school behind me. I went over to one of the corners where the concrete started and waited for her.
“Good morning!” Ms. Snapple greeted.
“Morning.” I responded.
“How are you Crystal?”
“Well, other that waking up at 6:25 this morning, yeah it’s been and alright morning.”
Ms. Snapple went towards the trash can and threw her banana peel away.
“I don’t really like throwing away banana peels in the trash. It’s supposed to decompose! At home I throw them in the bushes for the bugs to eat. They have to eat too right?” She asked me.
“True.”
Inside at this point, I thought that she had lost her mind. But there was something in that conversation that proved a point.
“I believe that if I did it here,” Ms. Snapple continued, “They would say, ‘Hey! You shouldn’t do that!’ Then they would possibly fire me.”
Yeap, she has lost her mind. Well, today the sophomores were doing their writes test today and needed the 300 building where my first period was, and the freshmen would have to go into the 500 building.
“There’s Ms. Snapple! And there is Crystal.” Stardella greeted as Ms. Snapple and I walked in.
I went inside my backpack and pulled out one of the previews that I had finished that I was working on the night before.
“This chapter seems interesting! When will it be written?” every pony asked.
“Soon, not yet though.” I answered.
Just a few minutes before the bell rang; Ms. Snapple, Black Ninja, Stardella, Cora, Timeless, Icy, and I went outside in the cold cruel world. I snatched up Harmony Wing as Ms. Snapple went into the library. Harmony and I made it to our first period before the bell rang, thank goodness.
We were getting to talk about the book we have to read; To Kill A Mockingbird. I wish that the book was a Daring Doo story.
“Harmony?” I asked.
“What?” she responded.
“I want you to read my chapter for a few minutes.”
“As long as you read mine.”
“Why would I not?”
“True.”
I handed her my notebook and she handed me a sheet of paper. The story was very interestion. My character that I made showed up in the story rarely because she lived in Crystal Empire.
“Oh my Celestia!” I praised.
“You like it?” Harmony asked.
“YES!”
“I liked yours too so far Crystal. You have to keep on going!”
The bell rang for next class; Harmony and I had to go across the schoolyard, just to get to next class. I went into Journalism, seeing Pony Paint and Super Junior.
“PAINT! JUNIOR!” I called.
“Hey Crystal.” Paint responded.
“CRYSTAL!” Junior responded as well.
I worked on the daily reading Ms. Reelz had given us and then I worked on my article. The bell rang, ah finally lunch.
“Crystal!” Cora called.
I looked over at Cora. I could tell that she had something on her mind, but what it was, I didn’t know.
“What is it?” I asked.
“Ms. Snapple evidentially left early again. I think that she might have been sick earlier today. But I went inside and I didn’t see her.” Cora answered.
“Thanks.”
This wasn’t news to me; Ms. Snapple when she wasn’t feeling good, she would go home. But on a day like today? A Tuesday where she had peace and quiet her first period? Something was wrong. I went to the back doors and noticed the familiar brown Pegasus flying. MS. SNAPPLE CAN FLY?!
I had never seen her fly before, I stood there for a few minutes, trying to grasp on the events on what was happening in front of me. When I did figure it out, I flew just above Ms. Snapple then landed right on top of her.
“Crystal?! What the-“ Ms. Snapple tried to say before the both of us traveled all through time and space.
When we finally arrived at wherever, I landed on my face halfway across where Ms. Snapple and I were supposed to land. Then I heard a pony scream inn agony. Looking up with a headache, I saw that Ms. Snapple and I were at the school, or what was the school.
“Ow.” Ms. Snapple cringed.
Getting up from where I was and rubbing my head, I saw Ms. Snapple’s right wing dangling from her side.
“Are you alright Ms. Snapple?” I asked.
“Just a – ow – broken wing is all.” Ms. Snapple responded.
Things fell silent for a moment.
“Three – Two – One.” Ms. Snapple counted.
“YOU CAN TRAVEL THROUGH TIME?!” I yelled.
She placed her hoof to her head, like she was face hoofing me!
“WAS THIS SOMETHING YOU COULD DO WHEN YOU WERE A YOUNG FOAL?! IS THIS SOMETHING YOU DO EVERYDAY?!” I asked losing my mind.
“Don’t start asking me fifteen million questions on what had just happened!” she snapped.
“Can I at least just ask two?”
“WHAT?!”
I looked at Ms. Snapple, she didn’t look too happy, besides the fact of her broken wings and being in pain. She was right about me, I did have about fifteen million questions to ask her about what had happened. I had to only choose two of my fifteen million questions. Which two should I choose? What would happen if I said something stupid? Would we both be stuck here in this time forever because of her wing? Or would we be able to return home?
Swallowing, I looked at Ms. Snapple and asked, “One, where are we? Two, How will we get home?”
I started to hyperventilate.
“Calm down Crystal! We’ll find a way home. I just need to do something real quick. But I can’t see myse- wait.” Ms. Snapple tried to calm me down.
She looked straight at me. She had a look like she was mustering up a brilliant (evil) idea. Oh Celestia, I am dead meat.
“Do you want to see who you become when you get older? We are in the future after all?” Ms. Snapple asked.
“Well, now that I know that, yeah!” I answered starting to calm down.
“Okay, good! You can’t see yourself or you’ll disappear.”
“Well, thanks for telling me that?!”
“Anyways, it’s the same way for me. So I know what we are going to do.”
“Um. Am I going to be killed?”
“Why would I do that?!”
She was right, she would never try to hurt any pony. Unless her patience was tested.
“Yeah, you’re right Ms. Snapple. What is the plan?” I asked.
“Alright Crystal. To avoid disappearance from the universe, I need you to find me, and I’ll find you.” Ms. Snapple explained.
“But I’m right here.”
A face hoof again.
“No, no Crystal. No. I’ll find your older self, and you find my older self. I hate to say that.” Ms. Snapple responded.
“How will I find you then?” I asked.
Silence.
“Like this.” Ms. Snapple answered grabbing a hold of me. We landed close to apparently where she was at the very moment.
“Meet me back at the park, and tell me what happens and I’ll tell you yours.” Ms. Snapple ordered.
“Oki Doki Loki!” I responded.
Ms. Snapple disappeared as I looked at the brown mare. I followed her home, I entered behind her. It wasn’t until she turned around the third time when she noticed me standing there. My first thought was that she was going to freak out.
“YOU?!” older Ms. Snapple squinted her eyes.
The look she had was like she was wanting to kill me with her bare hooves.
“YOU RUINED MY LIFE?!” she screamed.
Ms. Snapple lunged at me with her hooves around my neck.
“Wait! Ms. Snapple! Calm down!” I screamed trying to get her off of me.
“NO! YOU RUINED MY LIFE CRYSTAL! YOU MUST SUFFER!” Ms. Snapple kept yelling.
Looks like we have to do this the hard way.
Using the only type of long, easy to tie object I could find; I tied Ms. Snapple’s front hooves around her back, and tied her back hooves together.
Soon she calmed down enough so then I could talk to her.
“Ms. Snapple. How did I ruin your life?” I asked.
“You know what you did!” she snapped.
“Listen.” I thought for a second on what lie I could come up with, “My memory is all fuzzy right now, can you explain to me what happened?”
Ms. Snapple took a deep breath, “When you and I returned back to our time, we had been gone for a whole three months. Because you wouldn’t fly to get us home. When my wing finally healed, my fiancé and your mom put a missing pony’s report out. By the second month, they all believed that we were dead. I couldn’t continue on with my life as a teacher, every pony that saw me would’ve thought that I was some kind of ghost! You became a drop out of school; and I never became a college professor so then I could become a vet technician like I had hoped to become. And if you had never come along with me back when you were young, I would be one! But because of you! I LOST EVERYTHING!”
She hid her face from me. It was her dream to become a college professor so then she could get enough money to be a vet tech. She didn’t want to be a high school teacher all her life. And because of me finding her and pouncing on her, that dream was destroyed!
I screwed up her entire life!
“Why do you want to kill me?” I asked trying to hold back my tears.
“To show you, to let you feel my pain! But, I hadn’t been able to find you at all. That’s why when I finally saw you, I lunged at you.” Ms. Snapple answered.
My heart froze for a second. If her life is this bad, mine could’ve been just as bad.
“Thank you Ms. Snapple.” I untied Ms. Snapple from my ransom.
I was surprised that she didn’t lung back at me. I didn’t want to face my Ms. Snapple again. Not after what I just heard. Her heart would be broken when I tell her what happened. How could I do that to her? Not like she wasn’t in enough pain already!
When I arrived at the park, Ms. Snapple was sitting on one of the benches near a bridge.
“Hey Crystal! How was my life?” Ms. Snapple asked me.
I looked over at her with a sad look on my face. She looked shocked. I knew that she was disappointed; she even gave me a disappointed look.
“Crystal, I – I hate to tell you this. But -, “She paused, “when I found you, you were not an author like you had hoped to become. And you ran away from me, so then I wouldn’t hurt you. You should know that I would never do such a thing to you.”
“I do know that. But me, n – not an author. WHAT UNIVERSE AM I IN?!”
My eyes moistened.
“Feather, it’s okay. If we go home now; we just have to come up with a way! A way to get home.” Ms. Snapple explained trying to make me feel good.
“I don’t know what we can do. I few don’t find anything; can I just make my last entry of my life. Before it is too late?” I asked.
“Yes, say your goodbyes to writing while you can Crystal.”
-Flashback ends – Closing my notebook, I look over at Ms. Snapple sound asleep. Her wing was still dangling from her body. It didn’t even seem to be bothering her at all. I was still thinking about what had happened, and it being all my fault.
I really did feel sorry for her, maybe when we return home. I could get out of her life, I need to disappear for a while. Ripping out a sheet of paper from my notebook, I wrote my last letter to her.
Soon finishing, I folded the letter, and without waking her, I placed it in between 2 of her feathers of the broken wing. Getting up from where I was, I ran off, without my notebook.
I woke up that morning, without my companion; my pal Ms. Snapple. I tried to find a place to stay away from her. Somewhere I couldn’t be seen from my older self and my companion.
Soon, I went into a hole in the wall restaurant to hide. It was the best place to go. I was only in there for five minutes and older Ms. Snapple went into the restaurant and saw me.
“Um, hey Crystal?” Ms. Snapple asked.
“Oh, hey Ms. Snapple.” I responded.
I looked at her with a face of disheartening. I really didn’t want to see any likes of anything tied to my Ms. Snapple.
“I just found out that you are the Crystal from the past. I just have one question for you. When you scared me at my home, I saw how upset you were when you had left, about the story I told you about my dream being utterly crushed by a fifteen year old. My one question is that, because you are like her. Do you think that if I were to tell her what happened to me; would she forgive me for all that I have done?” Ms. Snapple asked.
I thought for a long time. If I was her at this time, would I still forgive her? I looked at Ms. Snapple with a forced on smile.
“I think she would enjoy getting to see you again and, not being murdered. But, I have to say that she lost her life as well. She or I mean me didn’t become an author like she had hoped. She got her dreams crushed too. If you help her become who she wanted to be and get her there, she will try and return the favor for you. Give ya a hoof.” I responded.
“You really think so?” Ms. Snapple asked.
I nodded my head, “She should.”
“Thanks 15 year old Crystal. I’ll never forget you. Well, it the next ten minutes I will.”
I giggled a bit, she was right about that to herself and me.
I thought for a second, maybe, if I returned to Ms. Snapple now and we tried to get home together, maybe, I could change the future for Ms. Snapple. Maybe her dream would be fulfilled, maybe, I could become an author like I wanted to do! I didn’t hesitate to go back to the park and look for Ms. Snapple; sadly when I arrived, she wasn’t there.
“I’ll wait for her here, maybe she just went out to find me.” I said aloud to myself.
I sat down underneath the bridge so then if my older self-came to me, I wouldn’t be seen. I waited there for her.
Soon, nightfall came and Ms. Snapple didn’t come back. I started to worry, where did she go? I came out from underneath the bridge where I was when in the distance I saw a silhouette of a stallion.
“Crystal?” the stallion asked.
I looked up at the stallion; he had black fur with a bright purple mane.
“Lunario?” I asked.
“What are you doing here? I thought that you were dead?” he asked.
“No I didn’t! This isn’t me in your time. I’m the Crystal Feather that your younger self knew. Look, I am stuck here in this time, unless I can find my science teacher Ms. Snapple. Please, can you help me find her?!”
“Well, what do you want me to tell her if I find her?”
“Tell her to meet me at the park.”
“What does she look like?”
“Brown Pegasus mare, yellow mane, hourglass cutie mark, dangling right wing. You can’t miss her.”
He nodded.
“Do you need a place to stay?” Lunario asked.
“Please.” I responded.
I followed Lunario to his home. When we arrived I noticed there was a brown mare with a dangling right wing.
“MS. SNAPPLE!” I cried lunging at her into a hug.
“I’m so glad that you are okay. Wh- Where did you go?” she asked as I let her go.
“Not far. I may have tweaked the future a bit. Just your hate of me at this time period.”
“Okay?”
I soon looked straight into Ms. Snapple’s eyes, she seemed happy to know that I was okay.
“Did you get my letter?” I asked.
She went to her other wing and pulled out the note.
“Dear Ms. Snapple,
Hearing that I had screwed up your life in the future because I tagged along, I don’t think that I could face you again. Possibly by time you read this, I might be as far as Canterlot. Go on home without me; I’m better off not making your life any more miserable than it is now. But I just want to say this, thank you for all that you have done for me; Ms. Snapple. I hope that your life will get better without me around.
Your student,
Crystal Feather.” Ms. Snapple read.
I blushed, she did get me letter.
“I know one way we can get back home!” I suddenly remembered.
“How? With my wing broken there is no way.” Ms. Snapple argued.
“Yes I know that. Lunario, do you remember Angel? Angel Von Valentine?”
“Yeah, she lives just down this street here. It would be best to go there in the morning.” Lunario answered.
“What’s the plan?” Ms. Snapple asked.
“You’ll find out.” I responded.
Ms. Snapple looked scared. Ha ha, finally I freaked her out about something!
“When are we going to Angel?” Ms. Snapple asked me waking me up from bed.
“IT’S TOO EARLY!” I snapped.
“It’s three in the afternoon.”
“IT’S STILL TOO EARLY!”
Silence in the room. Ms. Snapple trotted away. I could hear her hooves click against the floor.
“And I thought that I would be the one pony saying that?” Ms. Snapple thought aloud.
When she closed the door to where I was, I jumped out of the bed and went out the window so I could find Angel. When I got there, I knocked on this creepy looking door.
The door opened and there was an odd lime green mare at the door. Wait; that was only Marinette, Princess Marinette!
“GHOST!” Marinette screamed.
“No, no wait Marinette! It’s me Crystal.” I explained trying to calm her down.
“Angel! There’s a frickin ghost here at our door! She is here to rape us!”
Now why would I do that?!
Soon in the distance, I saw what was Angel. She was kind of round around her waist and her mane wasn’t that beautiful brown color that I used to know. Her horn began to glow, that was the last thing that I remember seeing before the light disappeared.
“Is the ghost dead?” one of them asked when light began to return.
“How can a ghost be dead when it already is?!” another snapped.
The light soon became clear as I saw Angel and Marinette at my face.
“IT’S ALIVE!” Marinette screamed.
She galloped off into the hallway. What in the hell is going on?! I kept on asking myself.
“I know that you aren’t a ghost Crystal. Marinette just completely lost her mind recently after her husband’s death.” Angel responded as if she could hear my questions.
“Oh.” I responded back.
“What do you need?”
“You know any kind of spells that could fix wings? Ms. Snapple broke her wing and we need to get home.”
“Why can’t you do it? You have perfectly good wings?”
“I can’t fly as good as a normal Pegasus can. I can’t fly as well as them.”
“I hate to tell you this Crystal, but there is no spell to heal broken wings in unicorn magic. You should talk to a pony that knows dark magic. There might be one there.”
I knew Black Ninja was off the list, she knew it, but not that well. The only other pony that I knew that could do dark magic was Regina. But she must not live in the area. Ms. Snapple and I had to find her though. That was our only way home.
“Thanks for your help Angel. I hope to see you soon.” I left the home.
I went outside their home with a massive headache. Maybe it was when I fell on the floor or one of them had hit me with a frying pan. I don’t know, it just hurt.
“CRYSTAL!” a stallion came running to me with fear in his eyes.
“Lunario, calm down. What’s wrong? What happened?” I asked.
“Th – They – Ms. – UGH! Come on!”
I followed Lunario into town in an alley way where I noticed Ms. Snapple in the middle of the alley, not even moving, and losing color.
“LUNARIO?! WHAT HAPPENED?!” I yelled.
“The universe… The universe.” Ms. Snapple repeatedly chanted to herself.
“Ms. Snapple? Snap out of it! What’s wrong with the universe?” I asked kind of slapping her.
She slapped me back and continued on. I placed my hoof on my face.
“Ms. Snapple answer me!” I snapped.
She still didn’t answer me, and this was starting to get old.
“What happened?!” I asked Lunario.
“I know what happened.” A stallion like voice said in the shadow of the alley.
The stallion came out of the darkness revealing himself.
“Nightsade?” Lunario asked.
“Hello brother.” Nightshade responded.
“What’s going on?” I asked.
“When you had disappeared Crystal, Nightshade left the house to go find you.” Lunario answered.
“What happened to Ms. Snapple?” I asked trying not to cry.
“I’m going to disappear soon. I – I saw myself. I’m going to disappear off the face of the universe!” Ms. Snapple stuttered with tears in her eyes.
My eyes widened, I was losing her; oh Celestia.
“Is there any way to fix this, before it gets worse?!” I snapped.
“No!” Ms. Snapple yelled, “It’s too late!”
She lifted her hoof to my face, it started to fade from view. I jumped up in terror and looked franticly around. I was losing her before my very eyes. I had to try and think faster on how we were going to get home. I only had seconds before she would leave the universe.
“Crystal – you have to fly us home.” She stuttered, “That might be the only way back. You have to fly.”
I swallowed, I can’t fly as well as her, let alone carry her around, I can’t even lift a frikin feather off the ground.
“But-“I tried to say.
“Crystal;” Ms. Snapple interrupted, “I can help you with my good wing, and with the energy that I have left in me. It should at least get us there. Hopefully it would save my life.”
I breathed heavingly at this remark. But then I realized as I thought for a second, I am the only one who could save her. And save both of our lives. I looked at Ms. Snapple, “I’ll do it.”
“But you can’t fly good Crysta?!” Lunario informed me.
“I may not be as good as many other mares, I may not be as good as Rainbow Dash. But to save my teacher, the one that I can trust. I will do anything to make it right. No matter what the circumstances.” I speeched.
Ms. Snapple smiled at my remark. She must have felt good that I was sacrificing myself for her.
“Come on Ms. Snapple, let’s go home.” I exclaimed.
Lunario placed Ms. Snapple on my back as I opened my wings.
“Are you ready Ms. Snapple?” I asked.
She opened her functioning wing and started flapping it. I flapped mine as well as I started seeing stars, then I heard a loud boom. Soon, everything went black.
"I think that they are waking up! Crystal?" a voice asked.
It could have been Stardella, but all I had to depend on was my hearing. Soon, I started to see a dark blue Alicorn mare with a black and pink mane blur at my face. It was Stardella, thank goodness.
"SHE'S AWAKE!" Stardella cheered.
"Wait?! Where is Ms. Snapple?" I asked frantically.
Stardella moved over as I saw Ms. Snapple, on the floor, out like a light, and barely visible. Still getting over the time travel journey that I took, I weakly went over to Ms. Snapple.
"Has she faded any more?" I asked Stardella.
"I don't know, I just got here in the classroom and found the both of you on the ground, looking like you two were dead." Stardella answered.
"Ms. Snapple! Wake up! We're home."
No response, not even a move. I knew what would wake her up from her, I don't know what, I lightly touched her on her head, and she smacked me on the muzzle.
"Ow, yeah, she's okay." I agonized.
Stardella and I lifted Ms. Snapple off the ground and into her chair behind her desk.
"I missed you." Ms. Snapple told the chair.
"Ms. Snapple, just to make sure that you are okay." I knew what was coming after this question, "Tell me one of the weird facts that you know."
"Dolphins use the toxins from puffer fish to 'get high'"
"Yeah, you're okay."
I paused for a moment, then wrapped my hooves around her. We were home from our death defying journey.
"I'm so glad that you're okay!" I kind of yelled.
"Am I still fading?" Ms. Snapple asked me as I slowly let her go.
The light golden brown fur that she had started to come back to light. She wasn't leaving the universe.
"YOU DID IT CRYSTAL! YOU SAVED ME!" Ms. Snapple cried.
"OW!" I screamed in agony dropping to the floor.
"Crystal!" Stardella and Crystal gasped.
"Crystal, are you okay?" Stardella asked.
"M- m -my wings. They hurt." I responded.
I tried to open my wings but I couldn't have them leave my body, they hurt so bad. Things started to go black.
"Crystal! Crystal!" one of the ponies screamed before my hearing disappeared.
That's all that I can think about at the moment. I lost my ability to fly, all because of saving a life. If you are wondering of what had happened to me, here's the story.
- Flashback-
I could hear a beeping machine, beeping to each of my heartbeats. I can see a couple of blurs up at my face.
"Hello Miss. Crystal Feather, you gave us all a little fright." one of the stallions that was in a white coat welcomed me.
"Wh- Where am I?" I weakly asked.
"You're at the hospital Miss. Feather; you blacked out at your school yesterday."
"Is Ms. Snapple okay?!"
"Who's Ms. Snapple?"
"Here physical science teacher," my mom responded, "She came her Friday afterschool let out to check out on her. The one with the cast on her wing?"
"She came to check on me?" I asked.
"Yes, she's alright Crystal." my mom answered.
I smiled, at least I had something to look up to. I was glad that she was okay, and her wing was getting cared for.
"Did I miss anything?" I asked.
"Other than homework, schoolwork, and Ms. Snapple getting her puppy." my mom answered.
"Oh, okay good."
"I have to go Crystal, today is one of the dances at Lightning Bolt's school. Don't worry, I'll be back here for you as soon as I can."
"Okay Mom."
She left the room, as so did the doctor who was taking care of me. I grabbed my notebook that my mom brought for me and began to write.
Like A Guardian Angel, Constant and True. Prologue
It was a great day in Ponyville when I was in a beautiful home...
So into my writing, I barely even noticed that the door opened and a group of ponies trotted in. At first I thought that my mom was coming back. But how, it was so fast.
"Whatchya writing Crystal?" a mare voice asked.
Startled I looked up and saw Ms. Snapple, Stardella, Timeless Crash, Cora, Black Ninja, and Harmony Wing standing by the door of my room.
"Y- you all came? For me?" I asked.
"Yeah," Ms. Snapple answered, "I wanted to come and see you, but, they all had the same idea as well and followed me here."
I chuckled, and smiled a bit. It was nice to see that all my friends would come and see me. but what was even more touching to me was that all of them took time out of their lives. To come and see me in pain. I started to tear up at the very thought of this.
"Don't cry Crystal!" Stardella ordered.
All of them came up to me and gave me a big hug. We didn't even notice that the doctor who was there for me come inside with an image. I froze for a second.
"Miss. Feather." the doctor greeted.
"Yes."
He was silent for a second. Which was really scaring me.
"We ran some x- rays while you were stable at the time. We had to wait for the machine to process and print the image that it caught." he gave me the picture of what looked like my wings, "I hate to tell you this Crystal Feather, but your wings have been disjointed from the place where they are supposed to be, and it's dangerous to even go there. I'm very sorry Crystal but your winfs will never be the same as they used to be any longer."
"You mean, I will not be able to fly anymore?!" I asked.
- Flashback ends -
My life sucks so much now, my dream to be able to fly like my friend Rainbow Dash, my flight teacher, was taken from me. I was afraid to show my wings off, they were just two useless little things on the sides of my body. I became Scootaloo that day. I'm lucky that I can still put my wings through the holes of my shirts. I only had one thing that I could look up to today, getting to see the circle of friends that I had here at my school. I'm happy that I get to see them again, especially what they did for me. I had a family created away from my real family.
I got off the bus as my normal routine at school, I saw Ms. Reelz coming out from the "parking lot." I went up to her and said, "Hey Ms. Reelz, how have you been?"
"Good, how about you? How was your weekend?" Ms. Reelz asked.
"Other than losing the ability to fly, having to wake up at six in the morning for my little brother Lightning Bolt to do camp cards, I'm alright."
She laughed, "I had a good weekend myself."
"Cool. I came up with a name for your character in my story!"
For a little background, I was writing a story about my life in high school, but the names were changed, and I had blank spots for Ms. Reelz name for her character, and it started to bug me.
"What did you come up with?" Ms. Reelz asked.
"Ms. McCormick." I answered.
“That’s awesome! Well for the character, but why can’t you fly anymore?”
I explained to her what had happened over the weekend.
“I feel very sorry for you Crystal.” Ms. Reelz responded when I finished telling my story.
“It’s not your fault Ms. Reelz, it just happened.” I responded.
“YOU SHOULD SLOW DOWN!” Stardella snapped running into me.
“Ow.” I agonized.
“Sorry.”
“I should sign in.” Ms. Reelz walked away.
“Okay! I’ll see you second period!” I called out to her.
“I hate these shoes!” Stardella agonized.
“Why?” I asked.
“They just don’t feel comfortable!”
“Oh.”
Stardella and I made it up the stairs where Ninja, Harmony, and Ms. Snapple in the room. Ms. Snapple was at the front board of her classroom writing something that didn’t pertain to me.
“Hey Crystal! Hey Stardella!” Harmony greeted.
“Hello” I responded.
Ms. Snapple finally turned around and noticed us, but didn’t say anything, I knew that she was about to lose her mind, She was working hard this morning, harder than usual. That was kind of freaking me out.
“How are your wings doing?” Black Ninja asked me.
I forced on a smile. That was the end of our conversation. When Ms. Snapple finished what she was doing, she looked really exhausted, but still managed to smile.
“How was your weekend with your new puppy Ms. Snapple?” Timeless asked.
“I had a blast! I even got some pictures!” Ms. Snapple answered grabbing her phone.
She showed us the pictures that she had taken; her puppy was so adorable. She even got a picture of her, her fiancé, and her puppy all together. They were all amazing looking pictures.
“I didn’t know that she was getting a puppy!” Stardella questioned.
“Yeah, I got her like Friday after I got my wing in a cast.” Ms. Snapple responded.
“Well I didn’t know that!”
“You were in here when Ms. Snapple told us about her and that she was getting her.” I snapped.
“No I wasn’t!” Stardella snapped back.
I knew that she was crazy, she was there I remember. Soon the bell rang; Stardella, Timeless, Cora, Black Sheep, and Angel left to go to class. I stayed with Ms. Snapple for a little while. I looked up at the clock and noticed that it was almost time for the bell to ring. I got up and went to class, making it before the bell had rung.
"How is it that you're the last one to leave?!" Harmony asked.
"I wanted to take my time to get here." I answered.
Today in English class all we did was do a quiz. Harmony was telling me that Mr. Sonnets had been out for so many days and putting off the test three times in a row, and they were finally getting to do the test. All we did was that; when the bell rang for Journalism, Harmony and I walked to our classes together, then went on our separate ways.
"JUNIOR!" I called.
"Oh hai Crystal!" Super Junior responded.
"How was your weekend?"
"It was great! I heard about what happened to you this weekend. Are you okay?!"
"Other than accomplishing my flying ability, then losing it all. I'm doing alright."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"No, no it's not your fault."
"I know, but I feel bad for you. I mean, if I were to loose my ability to use my magic. I don't know what I would do!"
I giggled and so did she. Soon my stallion pal came into the classroom. He set his stuff down next to the desk that he chose, and came up to me.
"Pait!" I cheered.
"Oh my Celes!" Pony Paint responded wrapping his hooves around me.
"What's up?" I rubbed the side of my body.
"Oh, I forgot about your wings, I'm sorry."
Okay, this is starting to get old. I'm not that fragile, just sore from all the surgical procedures that I had that I don't even remember having; maybe because I was out cold during it. But in my respective way, I took a deep breath, "It's okay, it wasn't your fault Paint."
"I know, but I just don't want to make you hurt anymore than you are now." Pony Paint responded.
I rolled my eyes. I'M NOT FRICKEN FRAGILE! He trotted away as the late bell rang. Ms. Reelz went to the front of the class and looked at us.
"Good morning all! Our daily reading is a free for all. Do your daily reading and then finish up your articles. They are due on the fifth." Ms. Reelz announced.
She sat down at her desk and I continued working on my article "The Return of Mr. Peabody." When class ended, I went upstairs to lunch. I walked into Ms. Snapple's classroom, I didn't see her there. Awkward, she is usually here? She must have been in the teacher's lounge doing something in there, but there was no noise coming from in there, which made things even more weird. Soon, Stardella came into the class.
"Hey Crystal! Where is Ms. Snapple?" Stardella asked setting down her stuff.
I pointed at the teacher's lounge room, hoping that I was right.
"Oh." Stardella responded.
Minuted went by, every pony was in her room, but still no Ms. Snapple. Where in the hell did she go?!
"Did she fall off the face of the Earth?" Stardella asked.
I shrugged my shoulders. I was just as confused as they were.
"It seems like that she did." Timeless responded.
It was already halfway through lunch when Ms. Snapple finally came into her classroom. But when I looked at her face, she didn't look too happy. Uh oh.
"Ms. Snapple? Are you okay?" Stardella asked.
"NO! I've had to go run around the school to drop things off at the main office and the ISSP room, and get paper for my printer! The thing that is pissing me off is that I had everything planned LAST NIGHT, I had a nice video to show you, and a great lesson on top of that! Yeah, my stupid rock lost all of the information and dropped me back to square one! It seems like every ficken day there is a problem! Either my printer is out of ink or it has no paper, my rock does whatever the hell it wants! Including the fact that all of it was taken care of and ready to go last night and it's all gone!" Ms. Snapple snapped.
My eyes widened, I have seen her upset before, but this one was a pissed off kind of upset. At first I thought that she would come back into her sanity, until...
"I just want to kill some pony right now!" Ms. Snapple continued.
Yeah, she was gone from the sanity that she had at the moment left. I wanted to take a step back away from her, give her some air to breath. Ms. Snapple was having one of her own "breaking the fourth wall in anger," kind of moments. I felt bad for her, she did all that work, which I was happy that she did, then lose it all. She quickly got up from her chair and went inside the teacher's lounge. The whole group was silent for the longest time, that I have ever experience. Soon she came back with two containers of food, making me hungry. I grabbed my bag of chips that I packed for lunch and started eating them.
"I'm going to eat while I can!" Ms. Snapple snapped
Everything was really quiet after the whole ordeal. None of us talked, until Ms. Snapple loudly groaned.
"Are you okay?" I asked with pure terror in my eyes.
"This F'ing printer won't work with this F'ing rock-"
"You can just say it." Stardella interrupted.
"It's starting to piss me off, this gay rock!"
Every pony roared in laughter, even me.
"If any of you can help me, it would be really helpful!" Ms. Snapple snapped.
Stardella sat down in Ms. Snapple's chair and tried to work with Ms. Snapple's rock. When the bell rang Stardella got the rock to communicate with the printer.
"YES! I DID IT!" Stardella cheered.
I rolled my eyes at that remark. Stardella left to her class as Ms. Snapple sat down in her chair with me behind the desk near the wall, trapping me there. Well, I couldn't have stood there like a complete moron, so I stood there and waited until she let me free.
"I'm being legit serious! I want to kill some pony right now! I worked so hard, and now it all went down the drain. I just want this day to end right now!" Ms. Snapple seemed to be even more upset.
I felt like giving her a hug and saying, "There there." But instead I looked at her.
"I'm sorry Ms. Snapple. It seems like the both of us have had a rough day." I tried to look on the bright side.
"What could possibly be worse than losing everything?!"
"Um, I lost my ability to fly number one, my friends are treating me like I am fricken fragile, and I am tired on top of it all!"
"I don't know anything right now Crystal, I'm just so pissed."
"I think we all are."
I knew that my problem wasn't as bad as Ms. Snapple's was, but my entire day had been bad since first period. I guess it was the same for her, but just worse.
The bell rang, I stood by Ms. Snapple for a little while in case if she wanted any help with anything. But when I did ask, she said that she had it all covered. I turned around and sat at my desk. She started class with a documentary that she could find within a few minutes. I almost fell asleep, but not quiet. I kept looked out at her desk, she seemed to be trying to get herself back in order. At one point the both of us looked up at the same time and smiled, she continued on what she was doing and I watched the movie.
When the documentary finished she explained the worksheet that she gave us in class and told us it was for our notebooks, after that every pony started packing up their stuff. I collected my stuff and put it on my desk. Ms. Snapple was writing on her board, when she was almost finished she called my name and looked at me.
"Does this make sense to you?" she asked pointing at the board.
I stared at the board and read what was on it for a second, "Yeah, it makes sense. Even though I am not in that class."
"I know that! I just wanted to know if it was understandable."
"It is Ms. Snapple, don't worry."
"I'm sorry for snapping at you Crystal. It's just that today, this day, has sucked so much. I know that is has been that way for you as well, well now I know that, but... I'm sorry about it."
"It's okay Ms. Snapple. I knew that you were done for today."
She smiled, something that brightens up my day.
"I'll see you later Ms. Snapple." I said grabbing my things.
"See you later Crystal. Hope you have a better day than mine!" Ms. Snapple called out to me.
"Oh, I hope so."
Upon leaving the classroom, I remembered that I had tutoring to go to after school. Then I thought to myself, Before I go to tutoring, I could check on Ms. Snapple before she dashes on her way out of here. Fourth period came and I sat in my assigned seat, thinking about Ms. Snapple the whole time. That period came and went, when the bell rang I dashed out of class and up the stairs. Luckily I made it just in time before she left.
Ms. Snapple was at her board writing something when she looked at the door and saw me. I guess she was thinking at the time, that I was here to stay for her.
"I'm not staying Ms. Snapple, I just came here to make sure that you hadn't killed any pony yet." I explained.
"Oh, okay." Ms. Snapple responded.
She started packing up her stuff, she stopped and looked at me. Rolling her eyes she said, "I'm so ready to leave."
I internally chuckled, "I bet."
When she finished packing up her stuff, she looked at me and gave me a small smile, "Thank you for checking on me. Making sure that I still had some sanity left."
"No problem Ms. Snapple." I responded, "It's just what I do."
When Ms. Snapple and I split our ways, her going home, and me going to Journalism, I went there to help out with the newspaper and do my article's artwork. Soon going home to do homework.
A sick day! Yeah, sinus' were draining today making my stomach upset. Long story short, I stayed home. I slept until it was about 8am, I really needed that sleep. Then, I worked on one of my fanfictions, and slept some more. But tonight was special, tonight was the night of the Stallion Scouts! Yay!
I get to go see my stallion pals Nightshade and Lunario! It's 5:30pm; my mom, my little brother Lightning Bolt, and I made it just in time for pancakes for dinner, yum. Lunario and Nightsade had gotten their braces last week and I didn't get the chance to see them.
I sat down at the table with every pony else.
"Hey guys! Love your braces!" I commented.
"Thank you." they responded.
"Oh! I got to see the new Button Mash video!"
"WHAT?!" Nightshade quickly snapped.
"Not the second episode, but a 'deleted scene' from the My Little Human episode. The Valentines day one." I laughed, "Six hours wasted! Do you want to play again?! *sniff* Okay."
They both laughed at this. I got to spend time with my pals, but then I had to go home alone and do work. Fricken "Homelearning."
Oh shit, I have the CGA's to take in science today. The worst test from the county ever in the galaxy. They don't make any sense at all, and they are putting the reasonable questions for what we're supposed to learn. Any ways, it off the bus, I saw Ms. Snapple's car at 6:40 AM! She was early, as was I, but seeing her car out there made me feel late. So, I just got off the bus and went on my way to Ms. Snapple’s room.
“Crystal!” a voice called.
It was Pony Paint with his hooves out in the air.
“PAINT!” I responded.
He lightly hugged me and I responded back with a hug. He normally does that now for my sake still. I’m trying to get used to it now. Paint and I talked for a little while, I showed him some things that I got for myself for my early birthday.
“I have to go Paint to my science teacher’s room. I’ll see you later.” I exclaimed.
“Okay, I’ll see you in second period!” Paint responded as I started to walk away.
I went upstairs and got inside the pod room where Ms. Snapple’s room was. Her stuff was lying across her desk and she wasn’t in the room. She must have been in the teacher’s lounge doing the normal things a teacher would do in a teacher’s lounge. Setting my saddle bags down, I grabbed one of my pencils in my bag and began to write.
“Hey guys.” Ms. Snapple greeted.
Guys? I looked behind me and saw Stardella with her cup of coffee in her hoof.
“Oh man! I hate this cup!” Stardella scolded.
“Why?” I asked out loud.
Then I saw the cup drip out the side and onto the desk.
“Oh.” I responded to myself.
“CRYSTAL!” Cora called putting her hoof out.
I responded that notion with a hoof bump.
“Do you have a bit?” Black Sheep asked.
“Not for you.” I answered.
“Why do you ask every pony for money?” Black Ninja asked.
“Because every pony gives me money.” He responded.
He opened his wallet, yet he needed a bit. He had like two or three of them inside!
“It would be funny if he opened his wallet a moth flew out.” I said sarcastically.
“Yeah, thanks.” Black Sheep responded.
Soon, he left the room and Angel came in.
“Angel!” Cora said wrapping her hooves around Angel.
“I want something, but I don’t-“ Stardella informed.
“I have a bit for you.” I interrupted.
“For me?”
“Yeah here.”
I handed her my last bit those inside my wallet.
“I’m going downstairs!” Stardella informed.
“Wait! Let me come with you!” Angel called.
They both left to get something downstairs. I was happy to give it to Stardella, she’s my spiritual sister. I helped the Snapple set up her room for the CGA’s and I went to class 3 minutes after the bell rang.
“Hey Harmony!” I greeted sitting down at my desk.
“Hey Crystal, read this!” Harmony Wing ordered.
I took the notebook that she had from her and handed her my story.
“Oh my Celestia!” I said laughing.
“I just randomly started writing that story.” Harmony explained.
When my English teacher got up and began class, I was so bored, I just don’t want to bore any of you all. First period came and went and it was now second period. I thought I was going to get the chance to work on my article, but no, we worked the majority of the period and I need to finish working on a science worksheet that was due today. And the back of my head I knew that Ms. Snapple would bite my head off when she found out about it. Oh wait, shit I just wrote that, and I have no eraser at the moment, and I’m too lazy to cross it out. I’m in deep duty, I lived a good life, yeah now I’m dead. Lunch came around, I found Firestar at her locker, I started walking towards her as I almost ran into Ms. Snapple who was in a hurry for some reason?
“Hey Crystal!” Firestar greeted.
“Hey Firestar.” I said wrapping my hooves around her, “Okay I feel better.”
For little background on what happened, I heard from some pony that her dog passed away Monday. When I went on my rock to see if she had it on her social site, it was there. A dog that I got to see in the fourth grade had died.
“Okay?” Firestar responded.
When she and I arrived upstairs, I knew that Ms. Snapple wasn’t there yet. But Stardella, Timeless, and Cora were there already. Firestar grabbed my notebook and began reading, and Stardella went through my lunch. It was 20 or 15 minutes left before lunch ended and Ms. Snapple hadn’t arrived in class.
“Did she fall off the face of the earth?” Stardella asked.
I shrugged my shoulders.
“Maybe she fell down the stairs.” Timeless Crash added.
“No, she rarely takes the stairs!” I snapped.
“Well it’s possible!”
I rolled my eyes, “or she fell into a wormhole, and is stuck in time. Soon she will come here and tell us all that she saw!”
“Oh, like in big bang theory?!” Golden asked.
“Yeah!” I responded.
The other ponies face hoofed me. I laughed knowing that I was being myself. 3 minutes before the bell rang, Ms. Snapple and the new science teacher came in. I knew that because Ms. Snapple hadn’t said anything about her being fired, or quitting, or doing anything to a student that would cause these. But to be friendly to the newbie I said, “hello.”
Then Timeless Crash followed with the same. Once came and went and it was time for the CGA’s, UGH! I gave Ms. Snapple my notebook that had the story with her in it.
“CRYSTAL!” she said trying to catch me before I sat down.
“Yeah?” I responded.
“I had ISSP work to get to the person in there but I can’t now because of class. Can you take it down there?”
“Yeah sure I can.”
“Do you know where it is?”
“Uh…”
Just to say that I’m not a bad foal at all. I don’t even have a referral in my record. Because I’m awesome like that.
“No I don’t.” I answered.
“Okay.” Ms. Snapple responded.
She gave me the directions to the ISSP room. I thought that I knew where it was; yeah, it was about five minutes after the bell had rung when I finally reached the hallway of the Auditorium and followed the directions Ms. Snapple had given me, kind of.
I had to stop and ask one of the ponies in one of the house offices and they told me the same thing that Ms. Snapple told me. I still couldn't find it. Almost seven minutes after the bell, I finally found it! To make it faster I tried to fly to Ms. Snapple's room, but my wings wouldn't let me. Then I remembered that I can't fly anymore.
I got really lucky and made it to the end of Ms. Snapple reading the script for the test that the education system wants them to read so then I could just go straight to the test. Yeah, that was very enjoyable for me, taking the CGA's again.
Once I finished the test, before the ten minutes left mark was called, I grabbed my pencil and began to draw Ms. Snapple's character, in my story for my high school life, High School Humans, as in the form of Flutterbat from the most recent episode of My Little Human. When I noticed that every pony had fallen asleep I looked at Ms. Snapple every so often, then I remembered what she told us this morning.
“You think that the CGA's are boring for you! Just imagine how boring it is for me. When some pony falls asleep I start making bets. Like 'I bet that they're going to snore. Yeah.'”
Every time that I looked out at the class and then her, I would think about it, and then silently laugh. Fifty- seven minutes later, after trying not to fall asleep, Ms. Snapple got up from her desk.
"I can see that every pony is asleep so I'm going to cut this short by three minutes. I'm going to come around and pick up your tests." Ms. Snapple announced.
She started to pick up the test when my eyelids started to feel heavy, I was falling asleep. Forcing myself to stay awake, I looked at the stallion who sits next to me normally when the desks are together sound asleep.
After Ms. Snapple picked up all the tests and the materials, we worked on a worksheet and watched videos for the remainder of the period. When Ms. Snapple told every pony that class was all over I trotted over to her desk. We chatted for a little bit before the bell rang.
“Here,” Ms. Snapple handed me my notebook, “I didn’t get the chance to read any of it because I was trying to plan for next class.”
“It’s alright, I just gave it to you just in case you got bored.” I responded.
“Alright. Well, I have to use the restroom, see you tomorrow!”
I chuckled, “Alright, see ya.”
Collecting my stuff I headed down the stairs to fourth period. We worked for the entire period; when class ended Sunshine came over to my desk and looked at me with the look like she was going to hurt some pony at some point.
“Hey Sunshine! How have you been?” I asked.
“Not well. I’ve been in pain all day long.” Sunshine responded.
I didn’t sleep well last night, my mind wasn’t truly wide awake until lunch time came around. So to avoid my crazy blurriness of the morning, I’m going to skip on ahead to lunch time with Golden and Ms. Snapple. We all started talking about the Trotting Dead, Vampire Diaries, and randomly sandwiches.
“Oh dang it!” Ms. Snapple regretted, somewhat.
“What?” Golden Diadem asked.
“I’m behind on the episodes of The Trotting Dead. I need to catch up with them. I know what I’ll be doing tonight, hopefully.”
We chatted, none that I can quiet remember now. But sitting here in chorus class, we practiced our song, “The Star Spangled Banner,” for the spring pep rally that was happening at my school, and learned a new song.
Ms. Octavia played our notes on the piano for the song and then looked at us. She counted down, when she said go, we sang. I couldn’t wait for the pep rally to come, I wanted this whole thing to stop.
The bell rang and soon it was time for Geometry, and added on to that, it was raining. Yay for me… We worked on work, took notes, and sat still for a while. No need to get into too much explanation.
Woke up this morning, really late; I got off the bus, didn’t see Ms. Snapple’s vehicle. I thought that I beat her at the school at first, but then I remembered that Ms. Snapple wasn’t going to be at the school today due to that she was taking a test today at another place. And to self-explain, we were going to have a substitute in science class today.
Even though she wasn’t there at the school, I went into her classroom anyways. Harmony Wing, Angel Von Valentine, and Cora came in as well, minutes after I got in there.
“Read my fanfic please!” Harmony ordered.
“Okay.” I responded grabbing the notebook she handed to me.
“TINY!” Cora called.
Angel was in the room, having her sexy face on. Wrapping her hooves around Cora and continuing walking to us,
“Did you dye your mane?” I asked noticing that her mane was a tad darker than normal.
“Yes I did, smell it!” Angel responded.
Cora, Harmony, and Stardella went over to Angel and sniffed her mane.
“I can’t smell it right now. I have asthma.” I explained.
“That must suck?!” Angel responded.
“It does.”
Well, we all sat, talked, and hung out without the soul mare in the room that normally is. The bell rang and I looked at Angel.
“Oh crap!” I randomly remembered.
“What?” Cora nad Angel asked.
“I have to take a test in Mr. Sonnet’s class today.”
“Ha ha!” Angel laughed.
I rolled my eyes and began to go to class. We took our test and worked on discussion questions. When the bell rang, Harmony and I got the hell out of that room and didn’t look back. When I arrived into Journalism, Ms. Reelz had the roll in her hooves and was taking names. I don’t know what is going on at the moment.
“Crystal!” Pony Paint called.
“Paint!” we hugged, “What’s up?”
“Tired, hungry, normal things. You?”
“Alright I guess.”
“Is it your wings?”
“No! It’s just that I don’t know what is going on.”
“Ah, CRYSTAL!” Super Junior called.
“JUNIOR!”
“Alright class, come on!” Ms. Reelz called minutes after the bell.
I grabbed my notebook, Like a Guardian Angel Constant and True. And followed every pony to the auditorium. When we arrived, I tried to find a spot with one of my friends but couldn’t until…
“CRYSTAL!”
I looked towards the noise and saw Junior waving her hoof, urging me to come and see her. I sat down next to her and the both of us chatted before the performance started. I looked down at Junior and saw that she was writing something on a slip of paper.
“Whatchya got there Junior?” I asked.
Junior wrote my name on one of the envelopes and handed it to me. Being my redundant self, I used the tip of my hoof giving myself a paper cut.
“Ow. Well, I got myself a paper cut.” I said calmly like nothing happened.
“Oh no, Owie!” Super Junior said.
Then seconds later my hoof started to feel really bad, like bitch mainly.
“Oh sugar honey iced tea!” I whined
“Is it starting to hurt?” Junior asked.
“Oh yeah!”
Shaking my hoof to make it stop. Soon the performance started. The ponies dancing were all amazing, something I had never seen before. Soon Ms. Reelz led us to class, seconds before the bell was going to ring. I happened to be in the hallway when the bell rang.
“Ms. Reelz. Is it okay if I can stay in your room for lunch?” I asked as I passed Ms. Reelz in the hallway.
“You know that Fridays I have lunch with the other teachers in this pod room?” Ms. Reelz asked.
“Yeah, I remember you telling me that. I just need a place to go for the moment.”
“Certainly you can stay.”
I went out into the hallway to find Firestar and Stardella and steal them from the hallway. Well, per say, Firestar found me first when I went upstairs to see if Ms. Snapple had returned, that was a total lost cause.
I snatched Firestar and we both went back to Ms. Reelz classroom. We had lunch and we watched videos, which was all that we did. When the bell rang I slowly made my way to Ms. Snapple’s class, we worked on a guided reading worksheet and bookwork that went along with it. That was finished in like twenty or thirty minutes; I organized my notebook and then drew things.
Fourth period, finally the end of the frickin day! I was so over this day today. So I really didn’t pay much attention to what happened in class.
Spring break is here, spring break is coming, and so was out family trip! One week in Oatlando with the same five people, just wait until I lose my mind. I love them and all, but enough is enough. Just like this weekend, I was only home for a few hours and I was soon ready to come back to school. Thank you Celestia for making this week the week before spring break! Well, this Friday is the pep rally. Yay!
Getting off the bus, I went on my normal route to Ms. Snapple’s room, alone. I went into my lunch box and grabbed out some pistachio bread my mom had made over the weekend. I didn’t really like it, but I just wanted to see if Ms. Snapple and the other’s reaction when they tasted it.
In the mist of my thinking I hear the door open.
“Hey Crystal!” Black Ninja greeted.
“Hey Ninja!” I responded.
Well to be honest, I forgot my notebook at home and I, sometimes, have the memory bank of a dog. The notebook that I left at home, is the one that I use for notes on the day was that one. Yeah, what is written here, was all that I remember.
