As Ice was about to open the door, he came to a startling realization. "Oh man! I forgot my uniform! Well, it wasn't like I had the best record of keeping dress code here anyway!" Ice opened the door and found that all the other students were wearing regular clothes. ".....Okay. Did I not get the memo for casual friday?"
"Hey Ice!", Indigo Zap called out. "Nice isn't it? We finally got to ditch those stuffy uniforms thanks to our new principal!"
"Well now I don't need to worry about stinking up that old pile fabric anymore. So who's the new principal?"
"Cadence! She's a lot nicer than Cinch that's for sure. Plus she's close with Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna from CHS. So now we don't have as much pressure about 'reputation' that Cinch pushed on everyone."
'The tyrant has been dethroned!', Red Dragon said dramatically in Ice's mind.
"Gotta admit Zap. Things are looking a bit brighter here.", Ice said as he looked at the transformation Crystal Prep had undergone. "The hallways used to look so gloomy. Now things seem alive. Hey Zap? There's something important I want to talk with you about. Are you free after school today?"
"Sure Ice! I've got nothing planned."
"Great. See you then." Ice walked off to go to his class. Meanwhile Zap met up with her friends.
"Hey Indigo! Saw you talking with your boyfriend over there.", Lemon Zest said with a sly smile. "You two going over date plans?"
"Not exactly. He said there's something important he wanted to tell me after school today. No idea what he wants to tell me though."
"He probably wants to tell you it isn't going to work out.", Sugar Coat said flatly.
"Do you have no filter?", Sunny Flare asked with an annoyed expression on her face. "Maybe it's nothing."
"I'm sure it's nothing!", Sour Sweet said with a smile. "But if he breaks your heart I'm sending him to the hospital!"
"Uh...thanks for the support?", Indigo said with a mixture of shock and gratitude. "But I think I'll be able to handle this myself. See you girls around!" And with that Indigo was off to class.
"We're stalking them to find out what happens aren't we?", Sugar Coat asked.
"Isn't it obvious?", Sunny Flare said.
