Flash Sentry looked at the fate deciding door, that will rather give him liberty, or literal death. Should he venture forward, and fight against his fear, or proceed back to safety, in his own domain. What would it be? Was he a wimp, or was he a stallion?

Wimp.


Flash scurried away from the girls bathroom. “I can't do it,” he told himself. “I'm crazy for considering it. Only a pervert would go in there.”

He decided to go back to the cafeteria, and bother people for food. He walked up to a mare with brilliantly shiny hair. She seemed rich, due to the expensive jewels she had in her hair, neck, and hooves. Not only that, but she was wearing a lacy dress that seemed to cost enough to rebuild a city. Who wore clothes like that in a place where ponies ran around getting dirt on their hooves?

“Don't touch my dress, please!” She said as Flash approached. 

“I don't want anything to do with the dress, I just wanted to ask if you where going to finish that food you got there.”

“Uh...you can have this apple and these gummies.” She threw them at him, and like a dog, he caught them in the air and scurried away. 

“Good, good. But not enough.” He hid his food in his locker, went to bother five more ponies, and by then had a stash of food. 

He had a slice of cheese pizza, half a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, a bitten banana, an apple juice box, and the gummies and apple. 

He opened the gummies, and took out a purple grape one. It for some reason reminded him of Twilight's eyes, as they where glossy and bright. 

“I wish Twi was a Pegasus.” He thought. “Then she can come to my school. Then we can stand up against the sisters together.” he bit the gummy. “Then maybe I won't be such a wimp.”
