I sat down in my late afternoon class, reading a book on magic that Twilight gave me. It was quite interesting how the concept of magic and cutie marks worked. Though the field of science were not one of my vast points, I had a good understanding with my sisters help. Placing my hand on my cheek, I looked out the window, not paying attention to my teacher.
"Blitz." Miss Memoir called out to me.
I need to figure out the best way to boost Sonata will. I thought to myself, something to give her more confident.
"Blitz!" Miss Memoir called out, louder as she glared my way.
It not like I can change her attitude while she is still being treated rough. I contemplated, staring at the clouds. Maybe if I was to-
Smack!
The sound of a textbook smashing onto my desk woke me from my stupor as I looked up to a very upset Miss Memoir. She looked down at me, her arms crossed as her foot tap the floor impatiently. I almost jumped out of my seat from the erupt sound, earning chuckles and laughter's from my classmates.
"Blitz, would you be kind as to tell the class what you have been thinking about that wouldn't allow you to focus in my class?" She asked politely, her voice masking the anger that seeped from her eyes.
"Oh umm..." I didn't know what to say. I couldn't tell her or the class that my thought had been on a magical corruption. I looked around the room, trying to find something to use as a excuse.
Miss Memoir was not amused at my hesitant response, her eyes looking into mines. Slamming her hand on my table, the book on magic that Twilight gave to me fell over, which caught my teacher eye.
"What this?" Miss Memoir asked, picking up the book to read it cover. "The magic concept and theories?" She asked with a raise eyebrow, flipping through the pages.
"Wait, I can explain! You see, I-" I started but was cut off as Miss Memoir cleared her throat as she began to read out loud.
"Most magic stems from the mind of the user, allowing any... pony?" She stopped mid sentence to look at me then the book. "To manifest a certain level of magic. While unicorns posses the largest amount of magic to use, this also takes a toll on their minds and stamina. Pegasi magic is close second do to their ability to manipulate the weather..." Miss Memoir closed the book, placing it back down on the table. "Blitz, I will not judge you on your taste in literature, even something like... this." She says, looking at the book, "but that does not mean you can slack off in my class. Put your book away and focus. I also want to see you after class as well." She stated, turning around to continue her lecture.
I couldn't help but to peek around me, knowing that everyone in class would be laughing at me. Not to my surprise, there were snickers all around me. "Just my luck." I groan, sliding my head down on my desk. "Ok, let try this again." I whispered.
Reaching my hand into my pocket, I pulled out a small piece of Sonata gemstone. Holding the piece between my fingers, I lifted it up. Inhaling, I focus my mind on the gem and watch it glowed. I felt the energy being drain from me as a light pink wave spread out from my hand. Soon the class became quiet as everyone stopped what they was doing.
"Well, thanks to this book, I've gotten better at this." I said out loud, knowing no one could hear me. They was under my control more or less, thanks to the energy I had been feeding off Sonata. It was bad, I know, but this type of power, it something special. "If only I had the full gem, I wonder how much I could do."
I stood up from my seat, walking over to one of the girls in class and flicked her nose. She didn't even budged. Smiling, I place the gem in my pocket as I walked towards the door. It ashamed I cant make them do what I want, but as long as I have Sonata, then I have my powered. I chuckled to myself, thinking on the past. It only fair to use her like everyone from their world used us. Just like Sunset did.
