"Aww man! I can't believe school is here already!"
"Tristan, you need to chillax about this school thing."
"No I don't! We're in the FBI for crying out loud!" Tristan yells quietly to his friend. Ever since school started back up, Tristan has been in a mood because he felt he wasn't required to go anymore. The FBI was pretty much a career, and school was just getting in the way. He didn't want to be stuck in a hot and humid high school, learning about topics he could care less about. Yet here he is, walking down the main hallway of Somewhere High School.
"Can you not yell that in the middle of a high school hallway?!" Christian whispers back.
"I said it quietly!" Tristan retaliates. Christian rolls his eyes back at him.
"Whatever. Anyways, I'm glad to be back in school. It just make my new job so much more exciting!" Christian said with a smile. The FBI told him that he and Tristan would be given permission to leave the school in case of an emergency. He flashes back to what his uncle said.
"If you are needed in Equestria, we'll make sure to contact you." John said to his nephew
"How are you going to contact me?" Christian asks concerned. John raised his phone in the air. "You're going to call me in the middle of class?!" He shouts. Phones weren't allowed to be answered in class unless you were allowed to take them out, which was very rare. John laughs and shakes his head.
"No Christian, your principal will be notified of the emergency and will call your teacher to allow you and Tristan to be pulled out of class." Christian nodded at the system. He was a little annoyed at the fact that now his principal now knows that TWO of his students are part of the FBI.
"What about homework? Last I checked, I need to go to Equestria right after school correct?" John gains a huge smile a kneels down to meet his nephew eye to eye.
"You going to love this: Your principal has made sure to excuse you and Tristan of any and all homework for the rest of the school semester.. Of course, you'll get whatever the homework is anyway, just to make sure it's not suspicious or anything. But you don't have to do a thing!" Christian couldn't believe what he was hearing! His new job was not only one-of-a-kind, but now he could skip the worst part about school: homework! Christian was more then happy to agree to those terms. Why wouldn't he?
"Alright cool. But umm...quick question: When are you going to announce all of this to the public. I mean, don't you think they should be notified? He asks curiously. Suddenly, a whirl is heard behind him. Christian turns to see Celestia hop out of the portal gate. Christian smiles. "Hey PC!" John nods as well.
"Hello Celestia, how are you?"
"Just fine thank you!" She trots over to Christian. "I see Christian that you're a bit curious on where we stand on releasing this information to the public." Christian nods.
"Yea. Your people know what happened. Why can't my people know about it?" Celestia sighs with a smile.
"Because there are many more humans then ponies Christian. I don't think it would be smart to release that kind of information...yet."
"What do you mean 'yet'?"
"Your government will be releasing other classified information to buffer the fact out for now. Maybe in the future, we will tell your planet all about Equestria and what you have done and will do." Christian nods in understanding. It would make sense. If you told your people that aliens existed, I would probably be too much for those people to handle.
"Gotcha. By the way, how did you know I was talking about this?" Celestia points to her horn.
"Magic can do more things than you think Christian. Now, I must go. I have much work ahead of me. I'll see you this afternoon Christian! Good luck with school!" She nods to John and starts back off toward the portal gate. After a moment of light flashes, Canterlot Castle appears on the other side. John and Christian wave goodbye to the white alicorn as she jumps into the portal.
"Thanks Celestia!" Christian stops his daydreaming about this morning and goes back to talking to Tristan. "Besides, we go to you-know-where right after school. You'll see your girlfriend soon enough." Christian said pulling on his sling backpack to lift it up a little higher on his back. As Christian and Tristan were chatting about why they needed an education, Nick comes racing through the crowd of students in front of them. Christian stops to see his friend bound toward them, completely out of breath.
"Christian! I have...something...important to...tell you!"
"Whoa, Nick! Have long have you been running?" Christian asks.
"Since I left my house. Anyway, I..." He looks toward Tristan with an eyebrow up. "Who the heck is this guy?" Tristan frowns at Nick's attitude.
"The name is Tristan Nautilus. I'm Christian's friend."
"Oh!" Nick was caught off guard at the response. "Sorry 'bout that! I've just never seen you hang around with Christian. I'm Nick Fields. Nice to meet you!" Nick and Tristan exchange a quick friendly handshake before Nick gets back to Christian. "Anyway, didn't you hear? Mike moved!"
"What?" Christian asks confused. "Why would he move?"
"Something about how he didn't want to be hanging around a bunch of stupid bronies. Blah, blah, blah...And before you know it, he's gone!" Christian takes a minute to think about this. He couldn't believe his friend would move away because of some children's show! Christian shakes his head in disbelief.
"Where did he move to?"
"Elsewhere."
"Figures."
"Wait, elsewhere? Where elsewhere?" Tristan asks confused. Nick starts laughing while Christian facepalms. Tristan still didn't understand his little town.
"Tristan, Elsewhere is the other town over. In fact, their high school football team: The Elsewhere Reapers, are a direct rival to our team: The Somewhere Stallions."
"Seriously?!" Tristan shouts surprised. "Those are your town names?!"
"Hey, at least it's not Springfield or something." Nick jokes around. Christian and Tristan laugh.
"Yea." They both same in unison. The hallway suddenly fills with a harmonious ring, and in a matter of seconds, the hallway full of students dissipates. Christian quickly looks down at his watch.
"Oh shoot! Time for first period!" The three teens look at each other and then quickly rush down the hallway and down the stairs to their first class of the day.
---
"Hello class! I hope you enjoyed your summer! I am Ms. Flora. I shall be your Geometry teacher for the rest of the year!" Ms. Flora finished her opening speech by writing her name in red marker across the whiteboard in the front of the class. Christian was sitting high and mighty in the front. He loved Geometry, it was his favorite subject. Nick patted Christian on the back to signal that he was sitting behind him, and Tristan was to his left. Nothing could be more perfect! "Now, before we begin our first lesson, i'll take roll call." She walks back to her wooden podium and looks down at the clipboard in front of her. "Christian Average?"
"Yup." Christian raises his hand nonchalantly.
"Alright." She checks of his name on the clipboard. "Tristan Nautilus?"
"Present, Ms. Flora." He says like a good mannered angel. Christian and Nick roll their eyes at each other. Tristan was such a suck-up. Ms.Flora checks off Tristan's name without saying a word.
"Nick Fields?" She asks. Nick raises his hand without saying a world. "Alright good." She looks down at her seating chart and notices the seat to the left of Christian is empty. She looks back at the chart and then back to the empty seat. "Strange, we seem to have a student who is abse..."
"I'm here! I'm here! Sorry I'm late! I'm still getting used to the school's layout!" Christian's ears suddenly pick up the most beautiful sound they had ever heard. It was like a choir of angels and doves coming down from heaven during Christmas. He quickly swivels his head into a quick one eighty degrees to the center of the classroom's doorway. The girl leaning up against the wooden frame was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Christian couldn't take his eyes off her. His mind starts breaking her down very descriptively. She had glowing blonde hair that curled a bit right at her ears. Her gray eyes glowed in a mysterious and enigmatic way like before a storm, like her silver pendant hanging from her neck. Her legs were tightly bound of black skinny jeans, making Christian cringe as they looked as if they were constricting her legs. Her red drawstring bag was hanging off of her right shoulder as she pivoted her hip against the door frame. But definitely, her most prominent feature was her...
"Dude, look at her chest!" Nick whispers into Christian's ear. Christian snaps out of his daydreaming to process what his friend just said.
"What?!" He whispers back. Nick looks at him like he was speaking Spanish or something.
"Christian, c'mon! Tell me she wouldn't be a ten. I mean she has to be a double E at least!" Christian couldn't believe what he was hearing! His friend only cared about this new girl's breast size!
"You're kidding me right?" He said astonished. Tristan nudged him.
"Christian, I have a girlfriend. But even I have to say, those are really impressive." Christian's jaw was now dropping at the fact that his two best friends were going all googly-eyed at this girl's chest. Even Tristan! Who was dating a pony for crying out loud! Dash didn't even have a bust!
"Guys, you don't just judge a girl on her bust. You need to know her personality. You know, get to know her better." Christian said in a calm and collective manner. But in his mind, even Christian knew she had a set on her, but this girl looked cute even without a big bust. But if he wanted to get her, he needed to play it cool. REAL cool.
"Ah yes," Ms. Flora continued from the front of the room. "You are our other new student. Dee-Dee is it?" The girl nods.
"That's me! Dee-Dee Evermore! A pleasure to meet you!"
"Evermore?! You're the Secretary of State's daughter?!" Dee-Dee nods embarrassed.
"Yea. I hate it when people bring up my mother. That's actually one of the reasons why I wanted to be in public school. I can be normal for once." Dee-Dee walks up the podium and hands Ms. Flora a small pink slip of paper
"Alright then, have a seat next to Christian there Ms. Evermore. But don't think you can come in late all the time just because you're in the government." She says strictly. Dee-Dee groans as she saunters over to her seat.
"Don't remind me." She says sourly. She slumps down into her metal seat next to Christian with a frown as Ms. Flora starts writing down some practice problems on the whiteboard. Christian's eyes dart around the room nervously. This was his chance to make a good first impression! He coughed to disguise clearing his throat and turned to say something. In his mind, he was screaming at himself not to say something stupid or weird. He took a deep breath, and opened his mouth.
"Hi! I'm Christian..."
"Hey babe." Before he could say anything else, he was cut off. Nick decided to take matters into his own hands, and try to swoon Dee-Dee using his body and muscles. Christian rolled his eyes as Nick started to sound like some sort of love doctor to the obviously annoyed Dee-Dee. "The name's Nick. Sorry if my muscles are getting in the way of your work. I'm only the quarterback of our football team, and well, as you can see, I work out a lot." He gets real close to her right ear. "You know, my muscles aren't the only thing that is big..." In one move, she turned and pushed him back down to his seat. Nick was surprised at the strength she had! Dee-Dee gave him an evil eye.
"Get away from me perv!" She said quietly to the football player. Nick quickly raised his hands in surrender.
"Alright! Alright! I'm cool! I get it!" Nick quickly goes back to solving the problems on the board. Dee-Dee quickly glares at Christian who had a very nervous smile on his face. Christian quietly and slowly turns and slumps down to his desk. The one chance he had to make a good impression, and he blew it. He sighed in agony. This was going to be tougher than he thought...
