//------------------------------// // 6.Danger // Story: Derpy's Beautiful Love // by EverlyTheBlackRabbit //------------------------------// In Canterlot High, Derpy went to see the nurse during lunch. "Nurse Glow Hearts?" She asked when she went in the infirmary. Glow Hearts was sitting behind her desk looking through a file folder while on the phone. Derpy waited a while till the nurse hanged up. After hanging up her phone, "Derpy, please the close door." Derpy did so. "Since yesterday, you told anyone that I was Cupid?" she asked. Derpy shook her head, "No." "Good! Well I guess for starters I can explain a few things about myself. First, I'm not exactly from around here." "Where are you from?" Derpy asked curious. "A different world. Similar like here with people, stores and schools but with my kind having to be incognito all the time so our enemy won't know our location or weakness. Well that aside, I'm here to save this world from our enemies. They always find an entrance to get into these other worlds. So when they do, I have to be the one to defeat them and bring them back to my own world." "What do they want exactly?" Derpy asks. "Power. Negative power. If my enemy can gather enough energy for himself from this world, he'll take it back home to my world to use to fight against the other cupids and since the energy is from a different world then it will be hard for my comrades to defeat. Which is why I have to stop him here from getting close to that goal!" Derpy was left baffled. "Sorry. Was this too much information, Derpy?" Glow Hearts asks. "Not it's just this all just so new to me," Derpy says with a smile. "So, Is there anyway I can be more of any help?" "You can! You can help like the way you did the other day when you helped stand up for your friends. Real brave of you! I told my Master about you so he can consider you as part of an ally!" "Me? An ally to cupids?" Said Derpy gazed. "Yeah. He should give me an answer by today, so hold on for now okay?" Derpy nodded her head but then stopped to think. "Glow Hearts, why do you trust me so much?" "Because your heart says I can!" "It does?" "Yes!" Derpy smiles, happy to hear that. No one's ever said to her anything like that about herself. "I also know you got a huge a crush for Time Turner and you have liked him for years!" Derpy blushes madly, "Well that is...please don't tell him!" "Don't worry I won't but you know as a cupid, I can help you with this crush of yours!" "Y-You can?" "Yes! Love is my name and helping those in love is my game! Ask me whatever you like and I'll help you get close to him." "If you can read hearts then can you tell if he feels the same way for me?" "That I can not do. It's kind of a law. The reason why is because many would lose hope if they were to learn the person they love doesn't feel the same way or has those feelings for someone else. And that's just not how it works. What we can do is help you bring you close enough to your love interest and see if you're both are compatible no matter the obstacles." "And if Time Turner and I are not?" Derpy asks. "Is that a chance you'd be willing to take?" Derpy thought about it. She would like to know. If she learned what the results were in the end for the two then she would know whether to give up on Time Turner or not but, no matter what the answer is in the end, she would still like to be close by his side even if the two were not compatible at all. Glow Hearts felt red liquid appear in her glass. This girl really has a big heart! "Glow Hearts, will you please help me bring me close to Time Turner?" Derpy asks confident in what she wanted from the cupid. "Of course, my friend!" During lunchtime, Derpy sat with her friends at their table. She noticed that not one of them was mentioning yesterdays incident. Probably because no one wanted to talk about the fact that it was Sunset Shimmer they helped out. "How long will it take to get your music equipment fixed, Vinyl?" Lyra asks. Vinyl wasn't listening, instead she was twisting her spaghetti on her for fork over and over as she had something in mind. "Vinyl!" Lyra called out. This woke up the young dj. "Yeah?" She answers. "I was asking how long will your music equipment will it take to get fixed?" "Probably in two weeks." "That long? Bummer. I had planned for all of us to play together and have a small concert so we can collect money to buy Octavia a new cello!" This shocked Octavia. " A fundraiser for me? There's no need to go so far!" "But a cello must cost a lot to fix! And buying a new one must cost even more!" Says Bon Bon. "Yeah. Is why we thought of a fundraiser so we can help pay for your cello!" says Lyra happily. "You girls don't need to do that! I still have my old cello from back when I just started. It's a bit a worn out but as long it still plays it'll work!" Says Octavia. "Are you sure? We don't mind helping!" "Yes. It's fine. Thank you all though!" Says Octavia. "Don't mean to change the subject but yesterdays karaoke was thrilling!" "It was so much fun! I wouldn't mind going again!" Lyra says excitdly "Right! Vinyl, you should bring you brother more often to karaoke," Bon Bon says. "He's such a great singer!" "He's was incredible!" Octavia squeals. All the girls at the table began all talking about it but Vinyl wasn't so happy about it. She suddenly stood up grabbing her tray, "I don't feel hungry anymore. I'm leaving." The girls at the table looked worriedly at their friend. "Did we say something wrong?" asks Bon Bon. In the girls restroom, Vinyl looked at herself in the mirror. "Why do I got to be this way every time girls like my brother?!" Outside of the school roof, a young man sat there smiling as he looked at the clouds in the sky. "What luck! She was one of the girls yesterday scared of Sunset Shimmer and what more is she's also friends with Derpy. This time I'll try a new charm that will guarantee me more power over these students of this school and I'll start with this girl Vinyl." "Derpy, your here! Almost thought you were absent when you didn't show up this morning," Says Time Turner. He was behind one of the lab tables packing his things in a messenger bag. "You're leaving home already?" Derpy says feeling disappointed. "Actually I'm going to go around the school in search of whatever new epidemic is out in our school!" "New epidemic?" "Yes. You've not noticed how many been acting real strange this time?" Derpy shook her head no. Time Turner tells, "Well I began noticing when my Chemistry teacher came into class after lunch. She went nonstop about her friend who became a brilliant scientist but she didn't sound so proud of him. Second, my science group for some reason didn't sound so happy that I successfully figured out the answers to our lesson project. They usually ask me for help so they could figure out on their own. Lastly, that one guitar player named Flash gave me a note saying why don't I spend my time getting a social life other than using Derpy all the time for research projects." "That all really happened?!" Derpy was in disbelief. "It surprised me too. So like to join me this after school?" "I would love too!" "Let's move!" Time Turner says eagerly. Walking through the halls, now and then they stop every time students pass them so Time Turner could ask if they've seen anyone acting out of the ordinary. When they passed by the nurse's office, Derpy thought if this is something she should tell the nurse. "Time Turner, can you give me a minute? I got to check over the nurse for something quick." "Okay. I'll wait for you then," He smiled. "Thanks," Derpy blushed over his smile that always made her heart skip. She ran over to the nurse office, "Nurse Glow Hearts!" Inside she found the place empty. Did she already figure it out first, she thought. She walked back to Time Turner, "She seems to be out at the moment." "Would you like to continue our task?" Time Turner asks her. Derpy nodded her head. Continuing their task, they walked upstairs in the second floor. They jumped when their heard screams. Before they can get to the top of the stairs, students in fear ran coming down from there. One of them yelled, "Runaway!" "What in the world?!" Time Turner questioned.
