Fire Quicker is still taking responsibility for breaking the rules of Pear Butter’s field trip. While she did made a friend at Appleloosa who’s willing to be part of the School Of Friendship in the distant future, it wasn’t enough to avoid the rule she broke.
Ever since Pear Butter’s class began, Fire stayed in Starlight’s office during the whole period. Not only that, the counselor of the week is sitting in front of Fire. She didn’t made a single mistake whatsoever ever since Starlight went on vacation. She always puts her full attention on students who did something bad in the School Of Friendship and for what Fire Quicker did, there’s no excuse.
“Umm…” Fire sitting awkwardly. “How long are you going to keep staring at me?”
“Until Pear Butter’s class is over.” Stellar replied.
Fire Quicker signed in depression. Of course she did something wrong, but the punishment wasn’t helping her. Ten minutes ago, she’d been waiting and waiting until the next class begins.
“Do you think we can work something out?” She asked but this made the counselor annoyed.
“What do you mean?”
“Like...ummm…” Before Fire can get the chance to think of a better option, Stellar interrupts her.
“Let me make something clear student.” Stellar getting into Fire’s face. “I make the decisions around here. And to make this school stable when Twilight Sparkle is gone, you need to learn your lesson by missing one class.” She then pointed her hoof at Fire. “You’re lucky this punishment isn’t as hard as you think.”
Fire Quicker was taken aback from Stellar’s sassy attitude. The fact this is the first time she ever met her in person, she wonders if Stellar does the same thing to others. Again, she is the counselor for this week and she makes up most of Twilight Velvet’s ideas.
“Don’t you think you should at least...understand that I’m trying to help this school?” Fire replied.
“If your talking about your new friend Bonnie Rose in Appleloosa, then no.” The counselor retorted.
“But you don’t understand.”
“What don’t I understand?”
Fire Quicker signed as she tries to make things right for herself. “I told Pear Butter that I have Bonnie Rose to volunteer to this school?”
“What’s the difference?”
“If more than just ponies know about the School Of Friendship, then they can have their friends to be volunteers. Imagine from where you live, your workers who are under your age, be part of this school?”
Stellar Flare thought about Fire’s words. From where she lives, Sire’s Hollow, is a place where all of her workers have been doing her schedules. And they have sons and daughters who didn’t like her society most of the time. She wanted to make things right for everypony in her society by any means necessary since her son along with his friend did a friendship problem.
She then made a smirked which caught Fire’s attention. “Well...let me tell you something.”
“Something of what?” Fire blinked.
“Maybe when I get the time to be counselor again, I might bring my employees to show our students some pure friendship talent, while also bring their families to check the whole school.”
Fire Quicker is speechless from Stellar’s idea. Just when she was about to show her responsibilities respectfully to the counselor, but it was nothing like this. “Am I still in punishment?”
The Stellar went back into seriousness. “Oh yes, I’m still watching you until Pear’s class is over, but I will remind Twilight Velvet about it.”
This made Fire Quicker sigh. While she did gave Stellar something to think for her future in this school, the rule she broke will never be forgotten until she deserves her punishment. Stellar Flare is too smart to fall in any of the student’s sneaky way of getting out of her office. Even if her job isn’t like the others, she doesn’t mind at all.
