Quest For Equestria

Chapter 68: My First School Day

After a few quick stops in town, Skywalker had brought a backpack, with Spike safely in the blue and black pack, they were making their way towards the cafeteria. "Did you smell that?", Skywalker whispered to Spike who responded with a muffled 'why?'. "There was this strange smell in principal Celestia's office... It smelled like sex.", Skywalker explained. Now it was Spike's turn to ask for a question. "Say, Jason. Why not just tell her the EoU is yours and ask for it back?", the dog asked muffled.
It didn't took long for Spike to understand that if Skywalker would explain what was really going on, Skywalker would be sitting in a white room in a straight jacked.

"So? Just use your superpowers! That's why you have them!", Spike protested, as they arrived in the Cafeteria. "Too easy.", Skywalker responded as he spotted the girl he was looking for. "Hey, Fluttershy!", he said walking over the the shy girl. With a faint blush, she greeted him. "I know we've just met, but I was wondering if you might be able to help me with something.", Skywalker requested, gaining a nod from her. "I've decided to run for Ruler of the Fall Formal.", he said excitedly. Much to his surprise, her expression turned into a mix of shock, fear and worry. "It's a really bad idea to run for Fall Formal Ruler.", Fluttershy explained, worried for the guy who so bravely stood up for her. He raised an eyebrow at what she said, requiring a further explanation. "Sunset Shimmer wants to be Fall Formal Ruler, and when she wants something, she gets it! She'll make life awful for anyone that stands in her way. Just ask the girl that ran against her for Ruler of the Spring Fling.".

Skywalker gave shrug declaring he was going to give it a show anyway. "Oh, I don't think you understand.", the shy girl muttered, gaining a questioning look from the black haired guy. "You'd have to convince everyone here to vote for you instead of her: the athletes, the fashionistas, the dramas, the eco kids, the techies, the rockers.", she explained. "Why is everybody separated this way?", Skywalker asked with a sad tone in his voice. "Maybe it was different at your old school, but at C.H.S., everybody sticks to their own kind. One thing that they do have in common, is that they know Sunset Shimmer is going to rule the school until we graduate.".
"Not if I can help it.", Skywalker thought to himself, before speaking up again, "So, where would I find the head of the party planning committee?".

After receiving the information needed, Skywalker made his way towards the school gym as Spike munched on the muffins he picked up in town. As he entered the gym, he was almost hit in the face by a inflating balloon. "Sorry about that!", a girl with pink hair and pink skin said as she walked up to him. "Pinkie Pie!?", Skywalker exclaimed surprised, gaining an equally surprised look from the girl. "Huh, are you psychic?", she asked with a tilted head, as Skywalker shook his head. "Fluttershy said this is where I'd find the head of the Fall Formal planning committee.". Even more to his surprise, Pinkie's expression darkened at hearing that name, "Fluttershy, huh? Don't let her Moe behavior fool you, she can be a real meanie.", the pink girl warned him, before giving him a quick look over as her expression turned back to cheerful, "Oh!, Your brand new here. I thought you didn't look familiar. Though, now that I'm really looking at you, do you have a twin brother who lives in the Cloudsdale city?", this statement made him shrug his shoulders, gaining a nod from her, "Thought so. Anywho, just need to fill this out and you are officially up for the coveted Ruler of the Fall Formal crown.", she handed him a clip board and a pen.

As Skywalker writes his name on the list, another familiar voice was heard, "Somebody order a dozen cases of fizzy apple cider?". Turning around he saw a blond girl with orange skin, a tall boy with blond hair and dark red skin and a blue haired boy with a light blue skin.
As Skywalker took in their appearance, all he could think was, "Okay, I'm scared now...". He was brought out of his shock by this Worlds Applejack claiming she knew him. "No, you don't.", Skywalker quickly as her boyfriend gave her an questioning look.
"He's the new guy who gave Sunset Shimmer the what for today.", she explained as broke open a bottle of cider and proceeded to drink it down in one gulp. "Skywalker here is going to run against Sunset Shimmer for the Ruler of the Fall Formal.", Pinkie exclaimed making Applejack do a spit take. Both her and this Worlds Sutakira tried to convince him why it would be a bad idea, what he noticed most was that the two finished each other sentence's. Skywalker knew only two sort of people did that, twins and couples. "Question? Are you two dating?", Skywalker asked, he didn't need an answer as their shared blush said enough. "A-Anyway. About the only person in this school you can trust less than Sunset Shimmer is Rainbow Dash.", Applejack said, making the young knight look up in surprise, "Blue girl, has rainbow hair, small chest. She's the captain of, like, every team at Canterlot High.".

Skywalker waved it off as he gave all of them a warm smile, "Thanks for the advice AJ and Phoenix, but this is something I really need to do.", he explained. He was about to walk away, but Applejack stopped him in his tracks, "How do you know everybody calls me AJ and my boyfriends name?", she asked. Skywalker quickly muttered something along the lines of 'you told me?'. "Yeah... Well, it sure was nice meeting you all. I'm sure I'll be seeing you around.", Skywalker excused himself as he made his way out of there. Pinkie tapped her chin, "That one's trying to hide a secret, but I am totally on to him. He's psychic!".
Before the other three could respond, Sunset Shimmer and her two henchman, Snips and Snails... Seriously?... Okay, then, Entered, and the alpha bitch started to order how she wanted the gym to be during the Fall Formal. "There should be more streamers near the stage and fewer balloons. This is gonna be MY coronation. I'm running unopposed.", she said smugly to herself. Pinkie unformed her that, that was not true as the new guy had signed up. If looks could kill, everybody in that room would have dropped dead as Sunset Shimmer let out a, "What." as she took the clipboard from the pink haired girl. She didn't listen to Pinkie's remarks about his hand writing as she was focused on the name itself.
"Jason Skywalker?... Where is this Skywalker?", she said as she putted up a fake smile, "I'm look forward to meeting the competition!".

Skywalker was making his way down the hallway, intending to go to the library before heading home, to kill some time, Skywalker and Spike took up a discussion. "No, no. The red Kryptonite makes Superman go crazy, the gold Kryptonite takes away his powers.", Skywalker explained as Spike wondered what he should be using, "I'm just trying to give you options.". Spike shook his head before saying, "I would stick with the green one. Seems easiest.".

Before he could response, a voice behind him took the two out of their discussion. "Can't believe I didn't recognize you earlier, pretty boy.", turning around they saw Sunset Shimmer leaning against a wall of lockers, she pushed herself off it as she turned to face him, "Should've known princess Celestia would send her prized champion here after me... and his little dog, too.", she added with a smug smile, her demeanor felt familiar to Skywalker. "He isn't my dog.", Skywalker protested, not taking a step away from his opponent, "He's just a friend!".
Spike was taken aback by his response, "... This is the happiest day of my life...", the dragon dog muttered, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Whatever.", Sunset said as she rolled her eyes, "This is just a minor setback for me. You don’t know the first thing about this place and I already rule it.", she boasted.

Skywalker let out an inner chuckle at this, apparently Sunset didn't know he once went to a human high school. Taking his silence as ignorant, she turned around as she let out a laugh, "And you're supposed to be sun butts star champ? Then again, what were the chances she'd find somebody as good as me to take under her wing after I decided to leave Equestria. Bit embarrassing that you were the best she could do.", she turned back to him, "You want to be a king here? Please.", much to her shock, Skywalker was already walking away, Spike at his side. "Don't worry. I'll crush you like your made of... something soft...", he said not bothering to look back at the enraged girl as her two henchman walked up to their leader. "I want you to follow him. Bring me something I can use just like I did with that last girl who thought she could challenge me.", she ordered as the two tried to sneakingly follow him. "When the power of Unity is mine, Skywalker will be sorry he ever set foot into this World. Not that he would have been much safer if he stayed in Equestria.", she said to herself as she made her way towards her next class.

Skywalker arrived in the library, Spike quickly jumped into the backpack as he questioned why they were heading towards the library. "Research?", Skywalker muttered as he picked up his backpack. "Your going to read books!? Who are you, Twilight!?". Skywalker took a seat behind a school computer, one of the teacher's, which he recognized as this Worlds version of Cheerilee warned him to only use the computer for school work. "What else am I gonna do on a school computer? Watch My Little Human? Play Smite? Watch porn?", he said half jokingly, back in his old high school he had done two of those three.

"You would be surprised at what your fellow students look up.", Cheerilee replied before walking away. After starting up the internet browser Skywalker declared, "Deduction time!", and started to type away. As he searched up what had happened the past few years, Snips and Snails were watching him from behind the glass door, waiting for him to do something embarrassing. "Even without my powers I know their standing there.", Skywalker whispered to his friend. Spike gave a nod as he remarked, "Well, every villain need some dumb henchman.". Skywalker continued his research as he secretly hooked his phone on the PC, secretly adding him to the student list, giving him a history in this World. He was brought out of his research by a sudden loud music coming from the opposite side. Looking over he saw Cheerilee talking with much to his surprise this Worlds version of the CMC.
"The hell are they doing here? Aren't they like eleven years old?", Skywalker said, gaining the attention from Applebloom. "We're fourteen... handsome older year.", she added with a slight blush, making Skywalker raise his eyebrow.

A few hours later, Skywalker and Spike arrived at their new house, it had a garden, a small swimming pool, and three bad rooms upstairs. The movers had already furnished it with the basic furniture decorating the living room. "It's not much, but I think we can make it.", Skywalker said as he moved some of the boxes of the couch and sat down as he pulled out, two Bento boxes out of his backpack. "Were did you get this? Its delicious!", Spike said as he scarfed his food down. He was completely surprised by Skywalker's claim that he made this himself, "You can cook!? Man you really are good with your hands... Forget I said that...", Spike added that last part quickly, realizing how out of context that could have been taken.

During diner, Skywalker showed the results of his research, he showed him a book he took with him from the library, "This is a yearbook. Its something they use to keep a record of things that have happened at the school last year.", Skywalker explained as he flipped to a certain page, showing a picture of this Worlds version of his friends, "Look. That's Griffifth, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Phoenix, AJ, Sutakira, Fluttershy, McGrath, Rarity, Big Mac and I'm gonna bet the girl on the far right is Twily.", he said as Spike fawned over this Worlds Rarity, making the young knight chuckle. "It's interesting because they look like my friends. But it doesn't seem like they're friends now and I just can't help but get the feeling that Shimmer's had something to do with it.", Skywalker explained, making a silent promise to fix what his enemy had broken before he went back home.

The next day is Skywalker's first school day, so he was up bright and early, making his way towards the school. Luckily for him, his new house wasn't that far from the school, just close enough to walk towards. "I wonder what awaits me today.", Skywalker thought to himself as he walked towards school, noticing a trash can rolling around with two legs sticking out, a yellow bike was laying next to a wall. "Fine! Leave me in here like the trash I am!", from the voice coming out of the trash can. "Don't tell me what to do!", Skywalker declared as he grabbed him by the legs and with a single pull, freed the boy. "Thank you so much! I own you one.", the blue haired boy said, rubbing the back of his head.

"Don't mention it.", Skywalker said with a smile as he walked with the boy to his bicycle. "You don't get it, everybody else would have stood there and taken pictures with their phone's. Not you, you got straight in there and saved my ass!", the boy said cheerfully. "Oh, I'm Flash Sentry by the way and your... Wait your the new kid right? The infamous Skywalker?", Flash Sentry said as Skywalker nodded, "That's me. Don't know about the infamous part.", he admitted. Flash chuckled before speaking up, "Believe me, if you have the balls to stand up to Sunset Shimmer, you get a name around here fast... Until you turn up dead.", he said with a chuckle before adding, "Do you want a ride? It's a little damaged but I think it can handle us two.", he offered.

As the two arrived at Canterlot High, Skywalker bid his goodbye to Flash Sentry before making his way to the Faculty Office to receive his schedule. Knocking on the door, a familiar female voice called him in, walking in he saw what he only could be this Worlds version of Luna.
"Oh, are you the new student? Skywalker, correct?", Luna asked. Skywalker nodded, "Yes ma'm.", he answered with a smile. Luna took a file from a pile of papers, starting to mutters as she flipped through the pages, "Wow, you've lived in a lot of different places... Let's see... In 1999... That was what, eleven years ago? Your parents...", the vice principle took a loud gasp at what had happened to his parents. "I'm sorry... I've been so busy, I didn't have time to read this beforehand.", the vice principle apologize, showing genuine his regret. Skywalker waved it off showing her it was okay, "It's alright ma'am.", he said with another charming smile, if he didn't know better, the woman in front of him had blushed at his smile.
"I'm Vice Principle Luna, I'm filling in for your English class. Welcome to our school.", the vice principle introduced herself, as she and Skywalker shook hands, "Nice to meet you, Ma'am!". Luna felt relieved at this new student didn't felt insulted, "Such enthusiasm! We could use more go-getters like you. Have you seen the classroom assignments? You're in 2-F; that's my class. The classes will be starting soon, so follow me.", she said smiling as he opened the door for her.

Meanwhile in Class Room 2-F, the students were talking loudly as their teacher had not arrived yet, "Talk about luck... the teacher for this class is vice-principal Luna, isn't it?", Sutakira asked as Big Mac nodded. "Ayup, it's the vice-principal alright. We get to enjoy her sermons every day for a whole year.", the dark red boy remarked. "Hey you guys, I heard the transfer student from the city is going to be in this class.", the two overheard another student talking to his friend.
"A transfer student from the city...", a green skinned boy with brown hair, this Worlds version of McGrath noted to himself, the cyan girl in front of him nodding, " Just like you, huh, Flash?", this Worlds version of Rainbow said to the boy next to McGrath, who nodded. "I already met him this morning. Guess what? Its the same guy who gave Sunset a what for.", Flash Sentry whispered. Their were cut off by the class room door opening as Luna and Skywalker walked in.

"Alright, class, I'm your homeroom and English teacher Miss Luna from today forward. First things first, just cause it's summer doesn't mean you can swoon over each other like love-struck doves. I'd better introduce this transfer student, Skywalker. Go ahead and introduce yourself.", Luna said with a kind voice, as the young man took a step forward. "Very well where shall I begin?", Skywalker started as he addressed class, "My name is Skywalker, Jason Skywalker. My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute named Chloe, with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds. Pretty standard really...", Skywalker stopped, taking in the face's of his classmates and his teacher, before bursting out in laughter. Seeing as he was joking, the rest of the class soon followed.

"Excuse me! Is it okay if Skywalker sits here?", Rainbow asked as she raised her hand. Luna nodded as she gestured for him to sit down. After sitting down, Luna started the lesson. Rainbow leaned close to him as she whispered, "Luck for you to get stuck in this class. I like you, new kid. I think you and I are gonna be great friends.". Skywalker nodded at this while thinking, "And so my new Life at school begins. Will I able to fit in? Challenge accepted!"


A few classes later, Skywalker had called this Worlds version of his friends to the school roof. They were surprised when their 'former' friends were also there. "You all must be surprised why I had invited you guys and girls here?", Skywalker started, he wanted to clear this up quickly, as he knew he was nothing without his friends.

"I know you guys used to be friends during Freshmen Year, remember?". The rest nodded still not getting what he was getting at. "Yeah... AJ was pretty ugly back then.", Sutakira said, earning a glare from his girlfriend. "What did ya say?", she asked threatening, making Sutakira quickly mutter, "...Nothing ma'am.".
"But something happened. I think that something was Sunset Shimmer.", Skywalker continued, they all looked doubtful at his accusations, "Look at it this way. She's a straight up Alpha Bitch. She humiliates anyone who stands in her way to become Fall Formal Ruler? Check. Segregates the entire school into smaller social groups to ensure they don't rise against her? Check. Destroys long-lasting friendships just for kicks? Check.", he said, giving them a moment to let it sink in before continuing. "Fluttershy, your silent auction for the animal shelter was ruined by Pinkie because she brought fireworks and noisemakers? And according to Pinkie, she got a text from you saying you didn't want a silent auction, you wanted a big party. Yet she claims, she never sent you a text, Pinkie.", Skywalker explained as he showed the blogs on his phone. As Skywalker pointed out more contradictions and flaws in the stories, they started to get around the idea, coming closer to the truth.
"And finally, did any of you ever asked the other why they did what they did?", he didn't need an answer to that as they all had guilt written all over their face.

Skywalker smiled as all of them started to apologize to each other, after they all made up with each other, Rainbow was the first to speak up, "So you're looking to dethrone Shimmer's and become Ruler of the Fall Formal, huh? Gotta say, I'd really love to see that happen.", all of them agreeing with her and with that this Worlds version of the Harmonic Heroes were born.

After the end of the day, his new old friends had other things to do, but they agreed to sit with him for lunch the next day to discuss their plan. As Skywalker was placing his books in his locker, Flash Sentry walked up to him. "Hey, Skywalker.", he greeted him, "You getting used to this place?", he asked as Skywalker nodded, "Wow, that was fast.", Flash replied impressed. "There isn't much to do here compared to the big city, but there is that certain something you can't get anywhere else. The air's clean, and I like the quite.", Skywalker said as he closed his locker. "Oh, you know about the local delicacy?", Flash asked, gaining Skywalker's attention, "It's grilled steak, man! Like that's anything special, huh? I know a place where you can get it cheap. Wanna come? You helped me out this morning, so it's on me.", Flash offered.
Skywalker thought about it. He had nothing to do for the rest of the day, except maybe homework, but needing only a hour of sleep, he had enough time to do that. "Sure, why not?", he replied, accepting Flash Sentry's offer. "Alright! I see you in five minutes at the entrance.", Flash Sentry replied before walking away.

Four minutes later, Skywalker found himself waiting patiently behind this World's version of Discord, who much to his amusement was the janitor at Canterlot High. Discord was trying to fix the front door, glaring over his shoulder to Skywalker. "I'm waiting for someone.", Skywalker explained as the janitor turned back to the door. "The door is broke. Maybe the fifth time or so. It don't open.", Discord muttered.
Skywalker trying to make small talk, "Maybe there's a penny stuck in there?", he suggested. Discord turned back at him, giving him a questioning glare. "Why a penny?", he asked, looking more suspiciously as Skywalker shrug his shoulders, "Did you stick a penny in there?", Discord accused. Seeing were this was going, Skywalker quickly said, "No. I was just making small talk.", but he was cut off when Discord placed the end of one of his tools against Skywalker's chest. "If I find a penny in there, I'm taking you down.", Discord warned him. Luckily for Skywalker, Flash arrived so he could finally leave and put an end to this awkward discussion.
