Same Day (Taking Off)
Hi diary,

Well, we're taking off. Fireflier is yelling something, so I gotta go. K bye now!!!

June 5
Hey diary,

Well, we arrived here today. In Fillidelphia. I hope this trip doesn't suck. I mean, it could rain. Or it could be evacuated because of some other Flame Pony or something. Anyway, Constellia specifically said I still need to go to school so no class time will be missed. So I decided to go to the Fillidelphia school: The P.F.P.

Fillidelphia's P.F.P is not like ours. There's no Frost Ponies or anything at all. Just regular ponies, like pegasi, unicorns, and earth ponies. The reason why that is is because it doesn't stand for Perfect Frost Ponies, but it stands for Proud Fillidelphian Ponies.

Dang it. I hoped that Crystal Ponies and stuff would be there. When I walked into there, I felt like I had 50 wings and 7 horns. I mean, I'm a Frost Pony, but I'm no regular pony. I'm an Alicorn. And these were all regular Fillidelphian ponies, just staring at me as if I were a zombie or something. I was glad that Fireflier was there too, so I wouldn't be the only weird pony in the class.

And then I figured out why they were staring at me. It was my Cutie Mark. It was very unusual, in fact, because it ran all the way down my leg... And it was glowing. I was really worried that it could harm me and the class if it did something.

But one of my talents is friendship, if you didn't know. Every time I go someplace where I don't know at least three ponies, my Cutie Mark glows and asks me to make some friends. The whole class was staring at me. I started sweating.

''D-Don't worry, everyone, it's just... Normal,'' I said. ''It's normal.''

''Well, class, this is Fireflight,'' Flashwhirl, the teacher, told the class. ''And this is Fireflier.'' My sister and I waved to the class.

''Hey, I know you!'' said a familiar voice. Uh oh.

''Surprise?'' I asked. Surprise was a pure white pegasus with yellow puffy hair, as puffy as Pinkie Pie's. She made enough trouble, but she's IN THE CLASS I'M GOING TO?

''Yes!'' Surprise exclaimed.

''What a... SURPRISE that you're in my class for a couple weeks,'' I replied. ''I don't remember you living here in Fillidelphia.''

''We'll get back to that later,'' Flashwhirl said. ''Today we'll be studying Frost Ponies. Any pony know anything about them? Fireflight?''

''Well... I, uh, know that I am one,'' I answered. ''And so's Fireflier.''

''And what do you know about yourselves?''

''We were Flame... Ponies before,'' I said. ''And Constellia used to be a Flame Pony, too, named Shredder Boom. But now she's ruler of the Frost Ponies.''

''And I heard you, your sister here, Fireflier, and your friends are called the Elements of Frost,'' Flashwhirl said. ''Is this true?''

''Yup,'' I replied. ''It's where we got our Cutie Marks from.''

''I see,'' said Flashwhirl. ''When did you last weild them?''

''A couple days ago,'' I said. ''It was our first time.''

''What is this, an interview?'' somepony asked. ''Get on with the lesson already!''

''Now, Tweakleaf,'' Flashwhirl warned. ''These are our new students, and they go perfectly with the subject we're discussing today. Now, I'll be passing out textbooks by Roserobin, a pony from long ago, so we can learn about Frost Ponies.''

''Roserobin?'' I broke in. ''She was... Um... Nice.''

''She was from, what, 500 years ago right?'' Flashwhirl asked me.

''Yeah,'' I answered. ''But I didn't know she wrote textbooks.''

''She didn't write it until a few days before she spoke her last words until her death,'' the teacher said.

''What death?'' I asked. ''I thought she still lives today. I think.''

''Well, that's what some ponies believe,'' she replied. ''But you're the Frost Pony.''

Lovin' school so far!!

Hey there, diary,

I don't think I feel too happy in this new school. The ponies never look at me, touch me (Why would they?) or even talk to me. I feel worried that there's something wrong with me.

Well, I gotta go to class now. I don't want to.

Sincerely,
Worrying Fireflight.
(P.S., I found out from Fireflier how to spell ''Sincerely''!)

Um, diary,

I'm gonna find out what's wrong with me. I actually went to the doctor, and she said that my Cutie Mark has been glowing nonstop for days. I told her it was normal, but she said that it wasn't from what she's seen. I said that I'm not a normal pony, so when I need to make new friends, my Cutie Mark starts glowing.

The doctor wasn't any help. Now I have to go see Princess Celestia to see what's wrong with me. She's coming here to Fillidelphia for fun, like a vacation. But I seriously need help.

You know what? I shouldn't spoil her vacation. I should find out what's wrong with me myself. I think it's because my Cutie Mark keeps glowing, like the doctor said.

Let's try making new friends...

Sincerely,
Worrying Fireflight

Hi diary,

I made some friends today! I made friends with three ponies. Their names were Lily Lightly, Sun Love, and Moonshadow Mist. My Cutie Mark calmed down a little, but I'm guessing it still says that I need to make more. I don't want to make more. Because it's hard finding friends that will actually befriend you.

Okay, that's it. We're having PE today...

Sincerely,
Proud Fireflight

Uh oh, diary,

Today I just lost those friends. I don't know why. They must have heard something bad about me. I hope they don't hate me... I don't like being hated.

I just don't know what went wrong.

Sincerely,
Upset Fireflight
