I’m late! Sea is going to be so mad!” Pluto was late to registrate for West Ponyville University and he was sprinting as fast as he could to meet Sea at the registration office. “Where is he? He should have been here thirty minutes ago! Was he saying goodbye to his parents?” Sea Swirl impatiently waited for her coltfriend in front of the office and when he finally arrived...she hit him. “Oww! What was that for?” “Sorry but you were late and all that…” “Well sorry! My mom was getting emotional and she started crying...again.” She giggles. “Well anyways we gotta go and register before it ends in...five minutes! Celestia damnit Pluto!” She flies inside. “Wait up!” he runs in. (Anthony and Victini)         “So...room 231...let’s see” Anthony walks down the hall and looks at each of the numbers “222...224….227...229…” He runs into another pony “Oh I’m sorry here let me help you…” he picks them up. “It’s no biggie” They look up “Hi my name is Victini! what’s your name?” he looks at her and has a million things going through his mind *Oh my! she looks…* “My name is Anthony Padilla! And I will major web design and media!” she giggles and he starts to blush. “Cool I’m going to major in Sports Management also…” she takes off her hat. “I’m a princess…” he froze and couldn’t believe what he just heard she’s a princess. “Are you okay?” “Yeah I’m fine oh! Look my room!” he runs to it and opens the door to see two ponies making out. “Umm...Should I go or…”They stop and both blush. “So...who’s Miguel?” “Oh! you must be Anthony! My name is Miguel Payton Patterson nice to meet you!’ he gets up and shakes Anthony’s hoof. “Well my name is Anthony Padilla nice to meet you too Payton...I mean!” “It’s fine it doesn’t matter what you call me Miguel or Payton it doesn’t matter.” “Okay cool Payton now I gotta unpack you can watch TV if you want.” “Okay.” “Miguel I gotta go and meet my roommate.” “Okay bye Appleblossom!” Victini watch everything happen it was funny to her especially Anthony she grew to like him but she opened the door the same time Appleblossom opened the door to her dorm room. “Wait are we roommates?” “I guess so my name is Appleblossom my mom is Applejack.” “Cool my mom is Octavia and my name is Victini...Princess Victini…” “I kinda figured that seeing you’re taller than me and you have wings and a horn...so what will you be majoring in?” “Sports Management you?” “I will major in Agricultural Engineering.” “Cool...so let’s unpack.” “I don’t you do.” “Right.” she opens the room to see all of Appleblossom’s stuff. ”So what’s the story between you and Miguel?" "We met in elementary school and we were friends until high school when we started to go out.” “Wow...I wish I could find love like that…” “Why not Anthony he seems like a nice guy.” “WHAT! I’m not sure we just met and…” “And nothing! there’s a party tonight at the CMC tree houses why don’t you ask him to go there with you?” “Well...I got to get used to the campus and I need to call my dad…” “Just go ask him.” she pushes Victini out the room “Wait I don’t know what to say!” “Wing it!” she shuts the door and locks it “Great…” (Orange Mint and Pluto)         “Sugar sugar water mix like this!” he sung as he balanced the cup of water on his head. “Add a little kool aid to make it right!” Pluto pours the powder into the cup “Done! one perfect cup of Kool Aid!” He puts it in two smaller cups “Bottoms up!” he drinks it “Wow! dude good as always! man I’m glad we’re roommates!” “Yeah best friends since elementary of course we would be roommates!” “So how’s you and Applecream?” Orange sighs “Not as good as it was...we may take the same majors and like some of the same things it’s just well...she’s more distance now.” “Why? you two were voted cutest couple in high school?” “I guess it’s because we are now competing for a job now...and we don’t really see each other that much she’s on the East Wing dorms and we are on the West.” “Yeah...I guess you’re right.” “Enough about me how’s Sea Swirl still pretty as ever?” “Yeah she’s nice still the same one from high school.” “The headstrong one?” “Yep” “Well good for you!” (Sea Swirl and Rainbow Gust) “So...what’s your training regimen?” Questioned Sea Swirl. “The same since high school...Fly for fifty miles do one thousand wing push ups and lift some weights.” Rainbow Gust replied. “I’m not sure how you don’t crash.” Sea Swirl said in amazement. “Oh I do, it’s usually on the weekends you might see a ton of that.” The rainbow maned pegasus assured. “Well I just fly for a few miles and do some strength exercises nothing too heavy.” (Orange and Pluto) “Probably something about training knowing them.” Pluto guessed easily. “Exactly Pluto! we know them too well!” Orange Mint laughed. “Wanna prank them?” “Pies?” “Pies!” Orange starts making two vanilla pies “We’re going to start a prank war within the Freshman class aren’t we?” he asked he finished the pies. “Yep, here!” Pluto grabbed both pie before giving his friend one. “Let’s go!” They both rush out the room to go to Sea Swirl and Rainbow’s room. “Okay let me knock.” Orange Mint insisted before taking place in knocking on the door and waits for an answer. “Who is it?” Called a voice on the other side, the boys struggled not to laugh. “It’s us Sea we have something to show you!” Pluto called to her. “Okay come in!” she opens the door and smiled. “Hi guys what’s up?” “Expect the unexpected!” Orange throws the pies and Sea and it hits her whiles Pluto did the same to Rainbow who was confused about what was happening. Once the boys had their laugh, the girls had just realized what was going on. A glare from them was all that was needed. “RUN!” they shouted in panic, running out of the room and back into theirs. “Grr...boys” (Elijah) “Is everything set up Blade?” “Yes it’s time to get the Freshman to the Auditorium.”  Elijah nodded before he speaks into the mic. “Attention all Freshmen please report to the Auditorium for introductions.” 45 minutes later… “Welcome all to WPU or as you all know, West Ponyville University!” there was a loud cheer in the air. “Yes now let’s get the boring stuff out the way...First who ever put toilet paper all over the statue of the princess please come out or there will be dire consequences.” No one moved an inch. “Okay I guess it was the Seniors.” “NO IT WAS ME!” A yellow and purple pony walked up. “And who are you?” “My name is Sunshine Gimmer...It was me…” The pony confessed. “Okay you don’t have to worry you will not get punished, but this is a warning.” she trots back to her seat. “Now as you can see if you confess about what you did you won’t get punished but it depends on the severity of the crime...Second I don’t want to find any...items outside your rooms so keep them in or there will be serious consequences.” “LIKE WHAT? A HUG!?” No one laughed. “Oh it seems we have a smart aleck here. What’s your name Smarty?” there’s a ‘ooh’ in the room. “Umm... Drew and what might the punishment be?” “Well, I will burn each and every one of your items and then personally talk to you.” “Oooh scary!” Elijah flies off the stage and lands in the seat in front of the disrespectful pony. “Well I will break every bone in your body if you get smart with me one more time. Got it?” He nods quickly. “Good.” Elijah flies back to the stage. “Now, last but not least, do good just because your parents are gone doesn’t mean you can skip on your work if you fail two semesters you will be expelled.” there’s a small murmuring. “Now enough of that go enjoy the last week you have because soon it will be time for college to start. Now get out of here!” Elijah walks off the stage to Blade. “So how was I?” “I think you scared them pretty well.” Blade gave a nod of approval. “Good now we better head up to the orphanage and help the kids with the party.” “I think they could use it, I’m not saying that they’re irresponsible, but things often get crazy.” “True...Yeah we better go, NOW!” He runs out and flies off “Wait up” He tries to catch up to Elijah. (Applecream and Zia) “So Zia how’s Windwaker?” she said walking down the dorm hallways to the main doors. “Well we’re fine...I just wish he would stop avoiding our dates…so how’s the cutest couple doing?” “Not too well...we are more distant...I guess it’s because we want the same job...I wish there was a way we could both be happy…” “Why not choose different jobs?” A random stallion runs up to them “My name is Jeff.” “Hi...Jeff...what do you want?” “Nothing…” he hops off. “...Is he special needs?” “I have no clue...but anyways we will probably meet everyone at the party so let’s go!” Zia teleports to the Orphanage “Umm...I guess i’m walking...great…” starts walking to the Orphanage (Jermani and Sparkling Light) “Sparkling remember when we pied Pete?” “Yeah it was funny hey where is Pete anyways? “I’m here,” runs in smacking into a wall “not again!” “So how’s Tropical?” “We’ve had a few fights, but we’re doing good overall” “Great me and Sparkling are handling college life well” She nudged him “We just started we didn’t handle anything.” “That’s what she s-” she hits Pete “Oww, what was that for?” “I knew what you were going to say Pete.” “You’re no fun.” “No you’re just immature.” “I may be immature sometimes, but at least I know how to have fun, now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go prepare the food.” “Okay see ya Pete” Pete walks off to the kitchen “This place had some good memories.” “Yeah tell me about it.” “Wait do you remember when we egged Mr.Patterson?” “Yeah he was so mad but he forgave us...by throwing pies at us.” the both laugh. “Well we better be heading out there they could need our help.” “True.” (Dipzy and 8-Bit) “Dipzy wanna sit by that tree near the stage?’ “Okay.” Dipzy slowly but surely walks over to the tree 8-Bit puts down the picnic basket and helps her over. “Dipzy if you need help just call me over okay?” “But I want to do it by myself...I don’t want help every step I take like I used to...I want to be independent.” “Okay I will respect your wishes.” they both sit down. “Thank you.” she said kissing him on the cheek  “Now Applecream was nice enough to make us a picnic for the party.” “Why do they call it a party it’s just a concert.” “Not any concert a Madeon and Vinyl concert when they are together they throw the biggest of concerts and they only do it every three months!” “I can see why it’s called a party now.” “look! it’s starting!” music starts playing “Welcome everyone! especially WPU for joining us today! Now without further adieu let’s get this party started!” Madeon starts off with one of his song and everypony went crazy. “You were right it is a party.” “Dipzy wanna dance?” she blushes. “Of course!” she gets up and starts dancing the night away with 8-Bit. (Octavia and Victini) “So sweetie how's the first day of life in college?" "Good...any news from dad?" "I'm sorry Tini but he hasn't called me..." "He always does it he never calls or even stops by I hate him." "Victini! That's your father! I know he maybe gone half the time but that doesn't mean you should hate him." "Why can't I he left us when I was five! And you were put in debt Vinyl had to help you!" "And so! He's still your father and I still love him!" "Hey Octy..." She looks away from Victini to see him...her husband. "Tempo..." "D-dad!?" Octavia hugs her husband. "Octy I'm back...and I'm not leaving." "Dad why did you leave?" "Victini look at how much you've grown! Wow thirteen years." "Stop avoiding the question dad why did you leave?!" He sighs "Vic...I left because I wanted to explore the world and see what Equestria was like outside of Ponyville." "That's why you left me and mom in debt!" "You were in debt! Octy why didn't you tell me!" "I didn't want to interfere with your dream..." Tempo holds her close "Octy if you needed help you should have called me I would have gave it up for you..." "I know but..." Tempo kisses Octavia she slowly accepts her husband's kiss. "But nothing I will always be there for you dream or not." "Dad...I'm sorry..."Tempo pulls her in and hugs her. "It's okay I understand." "I got to go mom I have something to do." Victini runs off to find Anthony "Victini!" He waves to her "Anthony!" She runs over to him. "So...I was wondering if you would like to go..." "Yes!" "Okay we can go to Sugarcube Corner tomorrow." "Okay see ya there!" She runs into the crowd. "Wow..." He said his breath taken away from him.
