Oh no... THAT just happened

"Okay class listen up, we're doing a group project for the next three weeks... and yes I'll be assigning your partners." Mr. Grumpy Hooves grumbled out as he paced the front of the art classroom. Not for the first time, Sunset vaguely wondered why such a grumpy person was even teaching art to a bunch of high schoolers. "....Pinkamena Pie and Sunset Shimmer will be the last group to present. For the project you need to find something, or someone that..."

Oh no... oh no... oh no... Sunset sucked in a breath, tensing slightly as she recalled just how, touchy, Pinkie Pie was. As if to confirm this was a bad idea a pink blur tackled her in a hug. "Whoopee! This is so exciting! I'm excited, are you excited?" I cannot believe that I unlocked a new power last night while patrolling! I wonder what else I can do? Oooh! I need to talk to Maud!

Sunset hurriedly peeled off the hyperactive teen, panic clawing at her chest. Pinkie Pie was Party Bomb... why couldn't it be a professional party entertainer!? "Don't touch me. In fact, how about you do the research and I do the art part of the project?" Having seen Pinkie's 'artwork', Sunset figured that they'll get a better grade if she didn't touch the art supplies.

"Awesome!!! What are we doing it on? Ooh!!! I know! Let's do it on the Avengers!!! Or the Fantastic Four, or the X-Men or we could do it on..."

Sunset pinched the bridge of her nose, exasperation flooding her. "Pinkie... I'm pretty sure that most of the class is looking at those subjects. I was thinking something more nature. Like a park. Or possibly a savannah."

"That works too!!! This is awesome!!! Oh! Could we do a rainforest? So pretty!" Does Pinkie never shut up? And how has she kept her secret identity secret with her love to talk a mile a minute?!


Pinkie plopped down next to her Maud, her tray thumping against the table. "Say... Maud what do you think will happen if Party Bomb randomly discovers that not only does she have explosive sprinkles, but she also has the ability to manipulate balloon animals to do her bidding?"

"I would hope she has someone that can help her practice using this new ability before she tries using it in a fight. Best to know what exactly she's capable of." Maud paused with her sandwich posed to take a bit, shooting her younger sister a really look.

"Cool. Cool. On a totally unrelated note, think you can help me make some balloon animals later." Pinkie grinned at her sister, knowing that she couldn't resist her.

"Of course...as long as it stays unrelated." Maud ignored how her friends gave her a weird look at that. It wasn't the first time a conversation between the sisters had about Party Bomb turned into a warning about not trying to copy something that the heroine did with her powers.

"I wonder why Sunset is staring at your sister Maud." Crystal Gem spoke up suddenly, nodding her head towards where the new school bully was leaning against the wall, munching on an apple, all while staring directly at them.

"What makes you think she's looking at Pinkie?" Maud tensed slightly, concern flashing through her. Did Sunset somehow figured out that her little sister was Party Bomb?

"The fact that she was staring at the lunch line... until Pinkie sat with us, then she was staring over here. My guess is she's watching Pinkie." Crystal shrugged, tacking a big bite of her salad.

"Why would she be watching Pinkie? Oh no! You don't think she's planning on doing something to her do ya!?" Opal Marble, Crystal's more energetic cousin, blurted out suddenly, grabbing her cousin by the shoulders and shaking her.

Crystal looked as annoyed as always over Opal's exaggerated actions. "Opal, chill. Before I tell Aunt Sapphire that you have lost it again."

"Hey! Leave Mom out of this!" Opal widened her eyes in horror, collapsing back down into her seat.

"Then I suggest calming down before I do call her. I believe she is in the middle of a big meeting right now?" Crystal stabbed at her sandwich, rolling her eyes skyward as she did so.

Only Maud was allowed to know outside of the Gem/Marble households that Opal was the daughter of a very busy CEO to a rather big company. Almost Stark Industries big. Maud allowed a small smile cross her features as she reminded herself that if she could keep the paparazzi from finding out about Opal attending here, far from her luxurious penthouse, then she should have no problems at all keeping her friends from connecting the dots between her sister and Party Bomb... and she most definitely could keep Sunset from figuring it out too.


Sunset slammed the locker door shut, her mind whirling. If one of the heroes was attending here... then what were the chances that the others were also here? Taking a step back, she bumped into someone else. Ah can't believe that dumb idiot got away last night! What kind of super hero am Ah if Ah can't keep a villain restrained enough for the police to chart away? I knew I should have kept my lasso around him longer than that! Paling, Sunset spun around to find the FFA club looking at her funny. Unfortunately, the two closest to her were both female. Applejack and Pear Blossom glanced over at her, identical looks of concern flashing across their features.

Sunset groaned at that. It was a known fact that both Applejack and her rival, Pear Blossom, were annoyingly honest. The geo gem of honesty could have claimed either one of them. "You alright there sugarcube?"

"That's not my name!" Sunset snapped, before storming off towards the exit. She was careful though to make sure she didn't bump into anyone else. She now had two confirmations that two of the new heroines attended her school. Do the geo gems not understand the importance of choosing adults?!

Author's Note:

Hi! Um...yeah. Case of the lazies. Sorry. Um, yeah. We now know more on what was going on in the chapter called This one has a Sidekick in The Principal Trouble. Sunset really needs to stop bumping into people. Also, I really like Maud's friends.
Um... yeah. She also needs to pay more attention to who she bumps into. Just as a heads up, Pear Blossom is her cousin, but no one, not everyone Applejack and Pear Blossom knows this. Since, yeah... family feud. They'll figure it out eventually.

Really good job on the exchanges, characterizations and future chapter set-up. And, yeah, Sunset finding out Pinkie Pie's secret identity and narrowing it down to 50/50 as far as Applejack's identity makes sense (and I also appreciated Sunset trying to avoid accidentally reading the minds of any of the students and the reflection on how the chosen element wielders are teenagers). And Pinkie actually has a third super-power (super-charging sugar, super-speed and now animating balloon animals) - well, given Twilight has at least three as well (telekinesis, teleportation and ice magic), I suppose it makes sense that at least one or two of the other heroes would also have more than two. Plus, yeah, Maud also knows Pinkie's identity, but does a better job in actually keeping the secret than Pinkie does.


And, yeah, to be fair, Spider-Man ALSO had his start as a teenager, as well as seemingly half of the X-Men AND most of the Power Rangers teams. But I digress.

Anyway, really looking forward to more of this.
