//------------------------------// // Nyx and Lance's first day of school // Story: My Life as a Sonic OC Season 1 // by Kitsulestia //------------------------------// Lance was nervous about his first day of school since he had been homeschooled by his mother due to the war. Even Nyx was nervous about it too. Danyelle was talking to Cheerilee. Danyelle spoke “Thank you for enrolling Nyx and Prince Lance into your class. According to his parents, Lance was homeschooled since it was too dangerous for him to be in a normal school due to problems back in my world.” Cheerilee spoke “I wasn’t aware of that sort of situation but I’ll make sure he’s not bullied while he’s under my care. Yeah, I’m talking about you Diamond Tiara.” The aforementioned filly shuts up, knowing that she could not argue with a teacher. Danyelle spoke “Thank you so much.” Danyelle gives Nyx a hug before letting the disguised alicorn filly run off to play. The school bell soon rang indicating school was going to start. Danyelle thinks “Chancellor Neighsay’s not going to like this so I’m going to have to talk to him.” So with that, Danyelle heads off to Canterlot on her rebuilt Ex-Gear even though she had wings. "Alright class we have two new students joining us today Nyx and our first non-pony student Lance." Cheerilee says introducing the two new students. Lance spoke “It’s an honor to be here." Nyx nodded since she was shy. Diamond raised a hoof before asking “Miss Cheerilee, why are you letting one of those freaks attend this school?” "Diamond Tiara don't be rude, apologize right now." Cheerilee says not happy at what Diamond Tiara said. Lance glares at Diamond with a fierce look in his eyes. Lance growls “Listen here missy, I ain’t going to take that sort of crap from you. I’m a higher rank than you are so you better zip it before I roast you.” Diamond immediately shuts up since she was now scared of the royal hedgecat. Lance growls “My adopted aunt doesn’t like bullies though.” "Now Nyx, Lance, why don't you to go find a seat then we'll get class started." Says Cheerilee. Nyx chose the spot in front of Applebloom while Lance took the spot in front of Diamond. Once everyone was seated, Cheerilee started her lessons. Diamond kept quiet since she was now scared of Lance. After class was done, everyone went outside for recess to have some fun while Apple Bloom decided to introduce Twist to Nyx and Lance. "Hey guys I'd like ta' introduce y'all to my friend Twist." Lance spoke “hi there, I’m Prince Lance.” Nyx spoke “And I’m Nyx...” "It's great to meet you like Apple Bloom said, I'm Twist." Twist says with a smile. Lance spoke “My parents don’t want me to take this thing off my neck while I’m in school. I can’t control my flames that well. But I still find it funny that my adopted aunt has a cutie mark even though she’s not a pony.” "Yeah I don't get it, how that's possible?" Stated Applebloom. Nyx spoke “My mom challenged Rainbow to a race... She broke the sound barrier and pulled off a Fireboom.” "Wow that's so cool." Stated Twist. Lance spoke “Yeah plus I got the fire powers from my mom and the speed from my dad.” Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon was watching the group from a distance. "That freak will pay for talking back to me." Diamond Tiara said to Silver Spoon, even though she is scared of Lance she was also mad at him. "I'm sure we can find a way to get them back." Says Silver Spoon. Lance snaps his fingers, causing Diamond’s tail to catch fire. Lance spoke “I heard you two were talking trash about me. It’s not nice to pick on others, royal or commoner.” "Lance!" Cheerilee calls out when she sees what happened. "Silver, put that fire out." Silver nodded helping put the fire out on Diamond Tiara tail. "Lance come inside with me." Lance grumbles as he heads inside. Lance spoke “But Miss Cheerilee, I overheard those two planning to get back at me since I had scared Diamond earlier...” "Even so that doesn't give you the right to set somepony’s tail on fire if there's a problem you have to tell an adult instead of taking matters into your own hoof or hands in your case because than you wouldn't be any better than they are." Cheerilee said. Lance spoke “My adopted aunt said that doesn’t work half the time... When she was younger, she had a friend my age that was being picked on by bullies. Telling a teacher will not work though. And like she told Fluttershy... A strong man stands up for himself; a stronger man stands up for others... And it doesn’t help that Nyx is different too, she looks like a mini version of Nightmare Moon....” Nyx was at the door with Applebloom and Twist. Nyx spoke “It’s not fair... He was only protecting us from getting bullied....” "I understand your intentions were good, the action you took was a wrong one, just promise me you'll let me know next time when Diamond Tiara is doing something and I'll handle it okay." Cheerilee says. Nyx spoke “But Miss Cheerilee, bullies don’t care what adults say!” "No buts promise me you'll inform me next time." Cheerilee says. Lance grumbles as his ears twitch in annoyance. After school, the bell rang so all the colts and fillies went home. Blaze arrives to pick Lance and Nyx up since Danyelle was in Canterlot. Blaze spoke “I’m sorry about my son’s recklessness; he was homeschooled before Danyelle had enrolled him in school. Lance doesn’t understand that bullies tend to pick on others, even when there is an adult around.” "It's fine Mrs. Blaze, he is new to going to school after all there are bound to be a few mistakes here and there but as long as he tells me about the problem first it'll be okay." Cheerilee says with a smile. Blaze spoke “Please, just call me Blaze. Mrs makes me sound like an old cat.... I’m only 29...” "Alright Blaze, well hope you have a nice day." Cheerilee says before heading back inside the school. Blaze heads off with Lance and Nyx, only for the trio to bump into Diamond’s father. Blaze spoke “Sorry sir, I didn’t mean to bump into you.” End
