Celestia pressed the edge of the mug full of warm apple cider against her lips, ready to take a much appreciated sip.... the door to her office banged open, Luna stepping into the room, with a distressed look upon her. "We've got a problem." She placed a sheet of paper down on the desk, looking a little on the tense side. "Apparently we have a new student starting today. Ms. Sound did the registering last week, signed him up for classes and everything."
Celestia frowned as she walked over to pick the paper up, sitting the warm mug down on her desk. "Really Luna, I don't see the big deal. Ms. Sound typically does all of the paperwork for new students."
"She really should have turned it over to us the second she noticed the last name." Luna crossed her arms, worry creasing her features.
Confused, Celestia looked down at the piece of paper to find a name that she thought she would never associate with a student. "Since when did he have a kid?!"
Celestia really didn't need Ms. Sound to point out the new kid at lunch. The lad, Dennis if she remembered correctly, looked uncannily like his father. She wondered if he knew that his father really ought to be in jail for some of the things he's done over the years. Not that anyone knew he did them. After all, there was no real reason for Celestia to know who Master Chaos was behind the mask. A frown crossed her features as she watched as Fluttershy tensed slightly when the boy joined her at her table, talking rather animatedly to her.
What does that boy think he's doing? Is he trying to corrupt poor Fluttershy? Celestia fretted slightly, uncertainty warring within her. Especially when she remembered that night was the school faculty bowling night. And with this very obvious clue that he was in town... she wasn't too sure that she wanted to leave Sunset home alone for that long.
"If you don't show up for the bowling night, the rest of the faculty will have questions." Luna materialized next to her, exasperation flooding her voice.
Celestia rubbed her arms nervously, not really paying attention to what was going on around her. "I know that... I just... what if he decides to take Sunset hostage because I'm fostering her?"
"You didn't say for now." Luna tilted her head, eyes narrowing slightly at her sister. "You have always said for now when fostering someone for Zecora."
Celestia paused, a frown crossing her features as she realized that her sister was right. No matter how much she adored the foster kid, in the past she always presumed that they would eventually move on to another home. "I guess she rubbed off of me a little." Celestia glanced over at where Sunset munching on an apple, leaning against the wall away from the trouble makers she normally hung out with. She appeared to be slightly distressed about something, her gaze frequently darting over to where Pinkie sat with Maud.
I wonder what has her so stressed out about the Rock Club. Celestia rubbed her forehead, deciding now really wasn't a good time to get too anxious over what was going through Sunset's mind. Especially since she had responsibilities to her students and faculty. After all, it wasn't just the students the school board was urging her to try and improve the performances off. The faculty had given up hope long ago, and it showed. And then she had to deal with the fact that apparently Mr. Blahard's son was now attending her school. Which could only mean one thing... Master Chaos was indeed back in town which means the Friendly Trio most definitely have to come out of retirement soon.
Celestia drummed her fingers on her bowling bowl, watching in pure agony silence as Ms. Sound's team, the Soundwaves, went up to bowl. Luna shot her a withering look from where she stood with her own team, the Nightmare Strikers, her arms crossed across her chest.
"What? I'm fine." Celestia shifted just slightly, turning her gaze to her team, the Daybreakers. Zecora and Luna had both cackled upon hearing there name the first time she came up with it.
Luna walked over to grab her bowl, a midnight blue with white specks, her eyes hardening just slightly. "Puh-lease. You are so uptight that Nightmare Moon would be distracted trying to soothe whatever is bothering you via her power to enter one's mind when asleep."
"Kinda glad that the Friendly Trio retired. Nightmare Moon always gave me more villainous vibes than good guy vibes." Miss Cherilee spoke up, her eyes widening just slightly.
Celestia shot a glance over at her sister, suddenly concerned over how she would react to hear someone refer to her counterpart as villainous. "Nightmare Moon appeared to be very close to Daybreaker. I am sure we have nothing to fear from her." Silently she added on the fact that she knew how to push her sister out of her head if she tried to go through with her threat.
Granny Smith opened her mouth, possibly to ask what they all were yapping on about, when there was a loud explosion and another supervillain crashed the bowling alley. Celestia figured this must be a new villain or something. After all, surely the news would have mentioned if there was someone running around with six arms... covered in orange fur that had black stripes. Not to mention the spider webbing it was shooting at an.... anthropomorphic dog?! The mostly purple furred canine, his ears were green in color, curled his fingers, claws?, around the webbing, stopping it from going much farther.
"Masked Magician! Now!" He yelled as he tossed his head back.
A new super hero swooped into the room, her eyes narrowed behind her purple mask that she wore. Actually, scratch that. It was a pair of thick goggles, not a mask that covered her eyes. She had a pair of large purple wings spread out behind her, as well as a purple horn sticking out of her forehead. Her hair appeared to be a dark purple, with a lighter purple and pink streak in it, it was also long enough to be considered a mane and tail combination like the other new heroes. Her outfit was made up of a layered skirt with dark blue, light blue, and purple layers, a sparkly light blue top, dark blue leggings, light blue heeled boots with pink stars on it, and purple gloves with light blue arm guards and pink stars on her arms. On her cheek were three stars. "Right... uh what am I supposed to do again Pup?"
"Use your freeze ray!" Pup, apparently that was his name, yelled out as the villain gave a sharp tug on her webbing, sending the poor guy flying across the room.
"Pup!" Panic seized the new hero as she thrusted her hands out, which started to glow a bright purple. Oddly enough the same purple glow surrounded Pup, stopping his crash to the wall. Turning back to the villain at hand, she wrinkled her nose in concentration... her horn lighting up with the energy that was suddenly fed into it...
With a rather powerful blast the entire room was suddenly coated in ice. A nervous laugh escaped the new hero as she scanned the mess that she had just made. "Oops..."
