What else would you have expected? It has the tag, even says so in the description, kinda, so what were you expecting? A Minecraft Crossover? Wrong story, bro. Anyway, lets get this out of the way, shall we? You're a nerd. You have abwolutely no hope of becoming popular. At least, thats what you thought. Lemme start from the beginning. You had just moved into a new town from your old one, Manehattan. It was because your mother had gotten a new job in this town, or she just wanted to get away from your father. You didn't know which was true, most probably the latter, but it could be both. Anyway, a new town means a new school; in your case: Canterlot Highschool. The kids there most probably shortened it to CHS because of this day and age. I mean, COME. ON! We shorten stuff all the time, like 'lol', 'omg', 'ikr', 'idk', so why wouldn't they shorten it to amek it easier on their tongues? Anywho, you were stuck sitting in the front seat of your mom's car for over three hours, and you've been reading stories on the internet (not fanfiction, mind you, but actually actual stories), stories such as Chronicles of Ancient Magic and Gods and Guards, you were such a quick reader that you managed to read the first books of both series' within the time you sat in one spot. Buuut you were quickly getting that pins and needles feeling, you were sure that your legs had fallen asleep by now, and you really needed to hse the bathroom. You readjust your glasses, and you look up from your phone to see out the window. You were nearing your house, you recognized the houses and street from your mothers' description of the place. After a few minutes, your mom pulls into the driveway of one of the houses. You get out of the car, followed closely by your mom, the latter walking to the door and unlocking it. The first thing you do, as I'm sure most of us would do after a long journey, is run to the bathroom (at least, when you found it, it was like Twily Potter's room, under the stairs) and relieve yourself. If you think I'm gonna describe it, I'm not. Find another story if you're interested in that kinda stuff. After doing your 'business', you walked out of the bathroom and saw your mom carrying a couple of boxes with old ornamwnts and trophies. "Care to help clear out the car?" "Sure, mom." You walked outside to the car and took a couple of boxes out and stacked them on top of each other. Then, you walked inside and plopped the boxes next to the couch. After two more trips to the car and back, no boxes remained. You sigh in relief and flop onto the couch, and pull out your phone. But when you go into the goggle chrome app, you are met with an unpleasant surprise... UNABLE TO CONNECT TO SERVER ERR_CONNECTION_FAILED Data ran out. Now you wont be able to resume the adventures of Thylas and Purra or Tirek and Colt... at least you know a portion of their stories. But, you still wont be able to continue. "Honey, we have wifi!" Oh. Nevermind. "If you help me unpack these boxes I'll get you connected!" Great. Just. Great. You groan. You may be a major reader, and you read in a book recently that after a divorce, and you stay with your mom, the child is not supposed to help the mom do anything until they've settled in on their new lifestyle. But your mom is so sweet, maybe you can ignore the books for once... "Okay." You get up, and start unpacking various trophies and gifts out of a box and onto the table in front of the couch. You got all sorts of gifts from your gran, since she travelled all over the world. You're pretty sure that she's even been to the moon and back. After separating the gifts from the trophies, you walk over to a trophy case, open it, and start the repetative task of putting one trophy in after another. This took a while, since your mom and dad were athletes and won trophies so often. 'Ugh, why is this taking so long? I swear we had less trophies than this,' you thought. You mentally kick yourself for not staying in the bathroom and pretending that you had a runny tummy. After what felt like forever, you finally finished with the trophies. You noticed that mom was already done with a few of the boxes, and only two of them (and the gifts you didn't pack) were left. "Tell you what, quickly give me your devices and I'll get you connected. You look like you're about to die, there." Your mom let out a chuckle. "Okay." You pass her your phone, and you dig around in your backpack for your PonyPad. You pass it to her, and after a minute or two, she passes you your devices. "Your room is upstairs, second door on the left." "What's the first door?" "Another bathroom." "Ooohhhh." You walk upstairs and you follow your mom's directions. You pass the first door, and just to make sure, you peek inside. Yup, sink, toilet, shower and bath, definately a bathroom. Walking past the door, you find the door that supposedly was your room. You look behind you, and you see a door directly opposite the one in front of you. That was probably mom's room. You turning back around, open the door, and walk inside. With a flick of the light switch, your room lit up. In it, was a small bed, a TV, a bookshelf, a cupboard, and a desk with a computer on it. 'Wow,' you thought, 'I forgot how spoilt I was when I was seven.' You flop onto your bed and pull out your phone. You forgot how tired you were, despite sitting down most of the day. You let out a yawn, plug in your earphones, but them in your ears, and start playing some Discord. You fell asleep in a matter of minutes. -------------------- "Hooonnneeeeeeyyyyyyy...... Hhhhoooooonnnneeeeeyyyy....." You mumble something and turn over. "Honey, it's time for school." Your eyes snap open. 'School?, you think, 'school starts today?' "Aight, aight, I'm up. What's for breakfast?" You rub your eyes, getting rid of the last of your sleepiness. "Just eggs, bacon, and toast." "Oh, okay." You climb out of bed and stretch. Walking out of your room, you notice some paintings and photos have been put on the walls. You smile at one picture in particular, it was you on your seventh birthday, when you got your computer. You shake the memory out of your head and walk to the kitchen. Walking to the fridge, you see your more place a plate of eggs, toast and bacon on both sides of the table. You open the fridge and pull out some orange juice. You Go to the cupboard, pull out a glass, and pour your drink into it. You go to the table and start eating. This day seemed to start normal for you.... 'Maybe it'll be normal all throughout.' Oh, how wrong you were. -------------------- You say goodbye to your mom and close the door to the car. You sigh, and walk up the steps of the school through the front door, backpack bouncing slightly on your back. You walk through the hall, reading the map you received from your mom after breakfast. You kept on bumping into people, and they bumped into you, getting a bunch of people saying "Hey, watch where you're goin', man!" to you in the process. But you couldn't. You needed to find your locker. After a few more minutes, you manage to find it. On your way to school you memorized the code. You put it in, and looked inside your locker. Empty, save for a class timetable taped to the side. You pull it off and looked at your subjects for the day. First, Geography, English next, then lunch. After that, Science then you have Maths. The school day ends early today, today being a Wednesday. You fold up the paper and put it into your pocket for future use. After readjusting your glasses, you close your locker and wait for the bell to ring, signaling the school day's start. -------------------- The first two subjects went by without a problem, and now it was lunch. Since you were unable to make any friends during class (though there was a pink haired girl you remember as Pinkie Pie bothering you during English, asking you to PLEAAAASSSEEEEE be her friend), you had to sit alone. You manage to get to the cafeteria early, so the line's pretty short. You grab a tray, get what you want, and you find an empty table to sit at, far away from everyone else. The cafeteria starts filling up more, and you start eating your lunch. You're silently hope that someone feels pity for you and sits by you, but your prayers go unanswered. Alone you sit the entire time. Soon teh bell rang, signaling the end of lunch. You stand up, pick up your tray, throw all of your uneaten food away, readjust your glasses, and grump off to your next lesson. -------------------- Your school day had just ended, and you had just dropped off your stuff in your locker. After closing it and turning around, you come face to face with a girl. She had rainbow colored hair, and her skin was a cyan. She looked at you with a visible smirk. "Uhm, is there anything you need?" "Yeah. I'm Rainbow Dash. You're new here, right?" "Yeah. I'm new." "Well, if new kids want to get MY respect, they gotta stay in the janitors closet for the night." "Why would I do that?" "So I won't make fun of you." The thought of being teased and made fun of does not sound appealing to you. "Ugh, fine. Where is this fabled, 'janitors closet?" You keep a straight face, making quotation marks with your fingers when saying 'Janitors closet'. "Haha! It's over there." She pointed to a door only a few meters away from where you were standing. "Okay. I'll see how long I can stay in there." You walk over to it, and twist the knob to see if it opens. It does. You walk inside, and you close the door. "Okay, Rainbow. I'm in. What do I do now?" "Wait." "What" "Wait for tomorrow to come!" "Ah, figs." -------------------- Your eyes flutter open.you look around, and notice that it's dark. Youre also in the janitors closet, still. "Fudge." > You'll Pay For This, Rainbow Dash! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- You mentally kick yourself for listening to that cyan colored girl. "Stupid, stupid, stupid! Is this some kind of joke!?" Your question goes unanswered. "Fine! It's a prank, then soon you and all your friends will come out and shout, 'surprise!' And we can all be done with this!" We open the door to the janitors closet and step out into the hall, it was very, very, dark here. You have a little stretch, since you were had fallen asleep in an uncomfortable position. "Ah, well. Might as well make the most out of this situation." You head towards the Geography classroom, since you recall you teacher (Mr... Doodle Donkey? Was that it?) had sweets in his back room for anyone that behaved well in his class. Your eyes adjust more to the darkness, and you notice the door to the Principal's office for the first time. Getting curious, you walk to the door and tried opening it. "It... It's unlocked...." Checking to see if nobody is looking, you head inside the room. You don't bother turning on the light since it would be strange for the light to be turned on at such an hour, plus, you don't want to have to let your eyes adjust to the darkness again. You look around. Just your usual principals office; a desk, shelves paperwork in said desk and shelves, one overflowing box full of work, the norm. You weren't the type to snoop, so you left the principals office and went back on your original path. You walked up to the Geography class door. You see if it is unlocked. "Unlocked again? Geez, peeps gotta learn how to lock doors." You walk inside and look around. This room seemed darker than the other. You thought nothing of it and walked to the back room. Again, unlocked. "Okay, this is not normal..." You walk into the back room and scan th shelves. "Work... Work... More work... Aha! Fuzzers!" You grab the box and look inside it. Still a lot left. You grab a handful and stuff it into your pocket. You put the box back where it was and hope that Mr Doodle Donkey won't notice the significant amount of sweets missing. You decide to have one or two on your way to the bathroom, your sweet tooth was calling. You pop one into your mouth. After going to the bathroom, you head back to the janitors closet. After all, it was your home for the night. You open the door to the janitors closet and walk inside it. You sit down, closed your eyes, and tried to sleep. You tossed and turned, unable to get into a comfortable position. Eventually you just gave up. You found a torch sitting on one of the shelves, and you fished a book out of your backpack. You turned on the torch, and opened the book to where you left off. "And then, Daring Do stole the final piece of the Everfree Jigsaw. She fled, hoping that she wasn't being followed by Aushjjnsjjenejue. I can't pronounce your name." Just as you turned the page, a loud banging noise startled you, causing you to drop the flashlight and the book. You heard shouting. It sounded like men. You get up and open the janitors door slightly and peek through it. There, right by the front doors of the school, were two men; one of them was wearing a police vest, guns all over him. The other one had a giant sack. What were they doing, here at the school? There's nothing interesting to steal at school. Except FUZZERS. You giggle to yourself at the thought of these guys wanting Fuzzers. Your giggling is cut short by one of the men shouting. "Hey! Check the janitors closet for any flashlights!" "I told you to stop shipping that!" "Ugh, no! I meant torches! I forgot to bring some!" "You idiot! Why are we shouting!?" "I don't know! Just go see what you can find!" "Okay!" The guy with the guns started walking to the janitors closet. You visibly gulp. Your memories seem to flash before your eyes. 'I've had a good run. But of all the places to die, I wasn't expecting to die in a janitors closet of all places...' you think. Just before the man gets to the closet, you remember what sensei Spikeborn taught you. The guy opens the door, and you instantly try to kick him where the sun don't shine. The guy moves back, but your foot still hits his chin, causing him to fall back. He lands on the floor with a thud. "Krokodil! We have some company!" The guy with the sack drops it, and runs towards you. "Woah, Jenkem! A little kid just kicked your face in?!" "Just GET THAT CHILD!" Seeing taht as your cue to leave, you run as fast as you possibly can. You need to find a hiding spot. And fast. You rounded a bend, and you heard a couple of gunshots. You were terrified more than ever about what was happening. You eventually find yourself at the gym, and so you run into one of the locker rooms. You didn't care which one, as long as it provided some cover. You ran to a random locker, opened it, went inside, and slammed it shut. It stank in there. You had been running for so long, longer than you ever have before without stopping, so your lungs hurt and you needed to take deep, loud breaths. You stopped yourself from doing the loud part somehow. Anything will do, as long as you don't die tonight. Footsteps. Very close. "Cmon out, kid... I won't hurt ya...." You recognized the voice. It belonged to Krokodil. "C'mout, c'mout wherever you are! I just wanna play..." You dared not to breathe, no matter how much you needed air. Through the small holes in the locker, you were able to sneak a peek at Krokodil as he passed. He had a visible stubble, and very messy hair. He was a red head. He had a broken nose, as well as a cleft chin. His eyes were yellow, his whites were actually red. He had blue skin. You notice what he was holding in his hands; and assault rifle. A bit overkill for a child, don't you think? The room looked like it was getting brighter. Was the sun rising? You weren't sure. Krokodil passed, and you slowly, and quietly, opened the door to the locker. You stepped out into the open, and slowly closed the locker. Hoping that wouldn't- CLICK Oh, son of a- "THERE YOU ARE!" You don't need to look back to see what that was Krokodil definitely heard. You run out as fast as you can, only to be stopped by Jenkem in the middle of the gym. "An' where d'you think you're goin'?" Jenkem had red skin and blue hair, red eyes and yellow whites. Other than the color swaps, he looks almost exactly like Krokodil, except, stronger. Krokodil ran after you, and now you were caught between two robbers with nowhere to run. They pull out smaller guns; pistols. They take aim at your stomach, and just as they pull the trigger, you think fast and duck away. A two loud bangs were heard, as well as two grown men doubling over in pain. You open your eyes, having closed them as you jumped away, and you see Krokodil and Jenkem on the floor, holding their thighs. Their guns were on the floor next to them. It seems that they were in too much pain to care about you now. "You guys stink. Literally." You ignore the smell of drugs and walk away, checking outside the window for anything. The sun was indeed rising, and someone just pulled outside of the school, probably to unlock it. Well, they'll be in for a surprise... You pop another Fuzzer into your mouth, and decide to finish the job for those to druggies. You manage to punch them both unconscious, and you sit next to their bodies to make sure they don't get up. Cue scream in five, four, three, two, one... "BY THE NAME OF MY SISTER! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DOORS!?" There it is. A panicking Vice Principal Luna runs into the gym and notices you almost instantly. "Oh, oh my, dear child, are you hurt?" She runs up to you, worried. You shake your head, "Not physically or mentally." "Oh, good. Child, what were you doing in here during closing hours?" "That girl.. Uhh, Rainbow Dash, I think her name was, said that if I don't spend teh night here, she'll-" "Oh, that child is always up to some kind of mischief. At least you stopped these criminals. I'll get the police here as soon as possible. Are you sure you're not hurt?" "I'm as sure as... Um... I can't think of any similes." "Okay. I'll notify Principal Celestia of what happened here. For now, go home and rest. You probably need it." "Thanks, miss." You walk out of the school and walk back home. That was the most eventful night you ever had. Hopefully that situation doesn't happen again. > This Was Expected, But Unexpected At The Same Time! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- You open the door to your house. "Mom, I'm home." Almost instantly after that, your mom runs out from the kitchen and runs up to you and hugs you. "Oh, I was worried sick about you! Where've you been all night?" Your mom pulls away from you and looks you over. "And how did blood get on your clothes?" You didn't want to tell your mom about the night you just had, so you decided to think of a lie. "Er, uhh, my new friends said that they were having a party, and I went to it. I had an amazing time. One guy had a nosebleed, and at some points he decided to use my clothes as a tissue." You nervously smile, hoping that your mom doesn't see through your lie. Your mom gives you a suspicious look for a second, then it turns to one of happiness. "Glad to see that you've made some friends. Oh, and I would've liked it if you had told me about this earlier." "Hehe, sorry. I didn't have my phone, and the party was starting right after school, so..." "Okay. But, why aren't you at school?" I'm so screwed. "Oh, uh, when I arrived this morning, The Vice Principal said that I didn't have to go since I was so tired." "Okay. Well, buster, I've made breakfast, and afterwards you can relax in your room. Got it?" "Okay." You walk into the room and eat your french toast. You finish quickly and head upstairs. "I wish that night never happens again." You sigh and walk to your computer. "Might as well try to finish My Little Amnesia." You turn on your PC and the screen comes to life. After quickly skimming Dee-vi-ant-art (that's how you pronounced it anyway) you go into MLA. -------------------- You yawn and turn off your PC. The lack of sleep you got was really getting to you. "Honey, I'm going out! I'll be back in an hour or two!" Following your mom's words was the sound of a door opening and closing soon after. You get up from your chair, walk over to your bed, and flop onto it. You sigh happily after feeling your soft mattress instead of a hard shelf. But your happiness was short lived. Almost five seconds after flopping down, there's a knocking at the front door. You growl unhappily, scrunching up your face angrily. You get up and stomp downstairs to the door. You open the door to see a girl with poofy pink hair outside the door. "Hiya new kid! Principal Celestia wants you at the school, prontomagonto!" "Uhm, how do you know where I li-" "Cmon!" Pinkie Pie grabs your arm and drags you off to the school, you yelling in protest all the way. You quickly arrive at the front doors of the school. Wow, they fixed that fast. You sigh and walk inside. The halls were empty. You expected the children to be scattered around the halls, it was the end of the school day after all. But, Pinkie grabs your arm again, and drags you to the gym. You groan. 'Gee, I wonder what surprise I'm in for.' You enter the gym, and you get pulled by Pinkie onto the stage. She leaves soon afterward, leaving you with the Principals. "Attention students of Canterlot High, this student you see before you managed to singlehandedly get rid of some robbers, saving our safes. If this student wasn't stuck here overnight, we would've been broke." You nervously shift with the gaze of most of the children on you as Principal Celestia spoke. She turns to you. "And so, I present to you a medal of bravery." You feel really flattered about all this, but all you did was steal a few Fuzzers, kick a guy, run away, and trick guys into shooting each others' thighs. Celestia puts a medal around your neck, and the crowd goes wild. Celestia motions at everyone to silence. "Okay, kids. That's the end of the school day." Everybody in the room sighed in relief and started to leave. You walked down from the stage, only to get patted on the back on your way down. "not bad, for a new kid." You turn around to see one of the most beautiful girls you've ever met. She had curly red hair, said hair had yellow highlights in it, making it look like bacon. She was wearing the kind of clothes that scream 'bad girl' but the look on her face says otherwise. She looks.. Comforting. She holds a hand out to you. "I'm Sunset Shimmer. It's nice to meet you." You shake hands with her and introduce yourself. "Well, it's been nice, but I've gotta go before my mom gets home." "Okay, see you tomorrow!" You walk out of the gym, with Sunset Shimmer on your mind. On your way home, she's on your mind. When you get inside the house, go upstairs and flop onto your bed, she's on your mind. Yup, it's official, you have a crush. > Okay, This Was Definitely Unexpected! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- You walk through the halls of the school the next day. Everyone seems... Nicer, to say the least. They were congratulating you, patting you on the back, even clearing a path away for you to walk through the crowd. You were flattered of course, but, this was unrealistic from a stereotypical point of view. It just wasn't right. Being nice to a nerd? Congratulating a nerd for what that nerd has done? Nope, being nice only happens when an idiot wants to cheat on an exam, and congratulating a nerd for 'passing that spelling test last week' is usually for the same thing, cheating. Eventually lunch arrived. And, you are never sitting alone again, I can promise you that. You were even the first in line, since everybody waited for you to go inside before them. You were getting the royal treatment! When you say down, pretty much everybody moved away from their tables and flocked towards yours. Everybody was asking you questions, having a laugh or two, chatting about games, they were having the time of their life — including you. The one table that didn't move was full of girls, four of them you recognized; one was Pinkie Pie, who caught you looking at her and waved at you like crazy, another was Rainbow Dash, you silently thank her for making you stay in that janitors closet, a girl named Fluttershy, you met her during Science, and the last one you recognize... Is Sunset Shimmer. But, you decided to pay no attention to her since you had friends to chat with. It was a great change from your first day. You had friends, people actually cared about you, it was great! But, there was one part of your day — or should I say, night — that completely ruined it. -------------------- Sunset Shimmer couldn't get that nerdy kid out of her mind. So, during lunch she chatted about said kid with her friends. Sunset sighed, "I just don't know what to do." "Sunset, darling, isn't obvious? Just go to that, err, nerd, and confess!" Rarity threw her arms in the air as if to emphasize her point. "Yeah! Ohh! Or, you can throw that nerd a party and confess over a slice of cake!" Pinkie jumps up, but ends up falling backwards onto the floor. All the girls look over the table to check if she's okay, since she hasn't gotten up yet. "Ehh, don't worry, she's Pinkie Pie!" Rainbow shrugs it off and takes a sip of her juice. "Maybe you could... Err... Oh my gosh! I just had the best idea ever!" Everyone looks at Rainbow, curious of what she has to offer. "It can be like a prank! We can get the nerd stuck here overnight again, a couple of us can dress up as some bad guys, You can act scared, Sunset, then that kid can fight us, and BOOM! Confess your feelings shipping happened knight in shining armor blah blah blah and they lived happily ever after the end. So, what do you think?" "Rainbow! That idea is-" Rarity was cut off by Sunset. "Actually quite good... Yeah, I can work with that..." "Really?" Rarity was devastated, "You're going to work with an idea as dumb as THAT!?" "It could work, it could work. So, how do you propose we get that kid stuck here overnight?" Sunset took a bite out of her Apple. "If there's one thang Ah've learned from Geography and History, that kid suuuurrreeee loves Fuzzers." Applejack looks back to the kid that was being swarmed by everyone else. She turned back. "Soooo... What? We lead the nerd to the janitors closet using Fuzzers, ask Mr Diamond for the keys, and lock that kid inside?" Rainbow looks at everybody at her table, wanting an answer to her question. "Actually, that ain't a half bad plan." "Seriously? You're joking. Applejack, you're joking." "Actually, Rainbow, I agree with Applejack. Your plan isn't that bad. Not that bad at all." Sunset blew a strand of hair out of her face. "Okay, so we're going through with this. Lucky for us, I stole some Fuzzers during Geography yesterday. So, we're in luck!" "Yeah, let's do this!" Applejack was obviously hyped about this. "Uhh, Pinkie, who're you waving at?" Sunset looked at her with a confused face. "Oh, just your crush!" "Oh." ------------------- It was after school. The bell had just rung, and students were now filling up the halls, wanting to get home for the weekend. But you hadnt noticed the bell ringing because you had brought your phone to school, and you were wearing earphones, and currently listening to the Doctor Whooves soundtrack. So you just sat there, finishing your work. Then, just as you finish... plop A Fuzzer lands right in the middle of your workbook. "Huh? Whered this come from?" You pick up the Fuzzer and examine it. "Who would throw away a perfectly good Fuzzer? Oh well, finders keepers." You stuff it in your poket and pack up. You still had your earphones in. When you finished packing up, you put on on one of your favorite songs: Battle of the Bands. You had no idea who sang it, you just heard it on YouHoof one day, went onto PonyTunes and downloaded it. The song was just... wow. Anyway, once you were finished packing, you picked up your backpack, and started to walk out of the class. Once outside, you notice something small and green on the floor. You bend down to see what it is. "Another Fuzzer? Geez, what is wrong with these people?" Song changed to Under Our Spell. "Oh well, more for me!" You stuff the Fuzzer into your pocket and look up slightly. There was an entire line of Fuzzers leading all the way to the janitors closet. "Jackpot!" You walk along, picking up the Fuzzers as you go. You end up in the janitors closet, where the last Fuzzer of the line was on the shelf. You pocket was bulging with Fuzzers by now, and you pop one into your mouth. The song ended, and it seemed that all was silent. But when you turned around... ...the door had closed. And, click That means it's locked now. "Horsefeathers! Not this again! Oh well. Hopefully nothing bad happens tonight." And so, you sat down in the closet, using your backpack as a pillow. It helped slightly, but you were even more cramped. Oh well. It will do for the night. You put on the MinePony soundtrack in hopes of getting to sleep easier, but you swear you can hear two feminine voices and one manly, westernlike-voice screaming at you, "Help Usss! Help us!" You pay no attention to it and listen to the calming piano. You slowly fell asleep. ----------------- You woke up to the sound of someone screaming. Sure, you had your earphones in, but the slow piano was playing, leaving many holes of opportunity to wake you up. You groggily got up, and stretched. Your spine popped, and you felt the satisfaction of doing that come in. You take out your earphones and put them into your backpack. Tried opening the door, even though you knew that it was locked. It opened somehow, which really puzzled you. You walked out into the open, and then the screams started again. "Somebody! HEEEELP!!" You recognized that voice. It was Sunset Shimmer's. You ran as fast as you could to where you thought it was coming from, which just so happened to be the gym. There, what you saw, was Sunset backed up to a wall, and two people doing the backing. The two people were dressed in all black, so you couldn't make out any features. And.. The had bats. Like, baseball bats. "We got ya naw!" The voice sounded feminine. It also reminded you of someone, someone with a cowboy hat and blonde hair... As well as that voice shouting at you to help when listening to MinePony. "Yes, darling, we've got you!" That voice also sounded feminine, it, as well, also reminded you of someone. Someone with purple curly locks and a huge love for fashion. "Hey, stop that!" You didn't care if you recognized the voices. You just had to save Sunset Shimmer. You ran up to them, but much slower than you were before. Could you punch a girl? You weren't sure. But if it was to save Sunset, you're willing to do so. "Oh, my knight in shining armor or whatever has come to save me!" Sunset did a swoon. You saw that it was very obviously fake. You still didn't care. You ran up to the first girl, and kicked her straight down to the ground. You punched the other girl, and soon she was also down on the ground. You looked down to see their faces, the first girl had green eyes, light orange skin and a few freckles. You looked to the second girl. She had dark blue eyes and white skin. Just as you were about to figure out who they were, Sunset hugged you. You found yourself blushing, but you didn't mind. "Thank you for saving me." "Err, no problem..." Sunset pulled out of the hug and looked at you. "It means a lot." You saw that she was pulling closer, and you went right onto panicking mode. 'No! This isn't right!' you found yourself thinking. And then, she kissed you. Your first one ever, but you pull away instantly. You live by the stereotype, and this definitely isn't it. You've broken it enough, being popular and all, but this was crossing the line. Your face was completely red, and when you saw her face, she looked confused, but her face was as red as yours. So, once you pulled away, you said, "I'm sorry. But the nerd isn't supposed to get the girl." You walk away, leaving a confused and saddened Sunset Shimmer behind. You walk to the janitors closet, get your backpack, and go the journey home. You pulled out a Fuzzer at some point, but after staring at it for a while, you said, "I'm not in the mood for Fuzzers." So, you put it back into your pocket and sneak into your house through an open window. You sneak upstairs, and just before you open your door, you whisper to the one opposite it, "goodnight, mom. I love you." And with that, you go into your room, shut the door, and flop onto your bed. > This Is Bad, This Is Really, Really, Bad! Wait, Happy Ending? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The weekend came and went. You didn't care. Soon, it was time to go to school. You didn't care. When your mom tried to make conversation during breakfast you didn't care. You just wanted this day to be over with so you can go back to sulking. When the school day started you didn't care. Even during class you didn't raise your hand, or care. You seemed very different from the nerd you were last week. You didn't care. You felt like your life didn't matter anymore. You just didn't care. Even the massive amount of Fuzzers you had gotten on Friday didn't help. Nothing could get you out of your state of depression. The day came and went in the blink of an eye. Still, you didn't care. You just wanted to sulk while listening to some Green Doe. You slammed your locker when you put everything inside it. You didn't care. But you found yourself staring at your locker for some reason, as if just staring at it could solve all your problems. You were still there when only a few kids were hanging around, just lingering to gossip with their friends. But there was a sound that made your blood turn cold. A gunshot. You whip around to the front doors of the school, everybody else following suit. Who you saw made your blood turn to ice. "'Ello, kids. Did ya miss us?" It was Jenkem and Krokodil. They were back. Krokodil armed with an assault rifle, Jenkem with a baseball bat. Why he also didn't have a gun was completely beyond you. Everyone was too scared to move, including you. So, Jenkem and Krokodil walked through the hall, the eyes scanning every child. Soon, they fell upon you. You gulped. This cannot end well. "Well, well, well... If it ain't that nerdy kid 'ho gave us a beatin' last week..." You noted that Jenkem has what appears to be a British or Australian or something accent. "Time for us to return the favor!" Krokodil has an American accent. Again, you gulp. The two men walk toward you, so close that they were looming over you. Jenkem stuffed his gun into your stomach and got ready to fire, putting his finger on the trigger, ready to pull at a moments notice, while Krokodil hovered his bat above your head. And then,must like last week, what you've learned from Colt McGrath and his melee skills comes back to you. You smile, much to Jenkem's and Krokodil's surprise, and you kick Jenkem where the sun don't shine, succeeding this time around. After that, you kick Krokodil in the stomach, making them stagger back. A crowd had formed by now, obviously worried about something pretty darn obvious. You scanned the crowd, but Sunset wasn't there. Why would she? You broke her heart. Jenkem eventually got back up, and Krokodil came to, and the battle begun. "You'll pay for that, you little insect!" "Ya will be no more!" "Oh, really? Bring it on, chumps." You were getting cocky and you knew that. You ran up to Jenkem, punched his face, grabbed Kokodil's bat as it came down, grabbed Krokodil's head, and kneed his chin. The two men were getting frustrated. You could easily tell by the rage in their eyes. You were about to land a punch to Jenkem's shoulder when he grabbed you, stuffed his gun in your stomach again, and held down the trigger. All the kids ran away. He let go and you fell to the ground. You would fighting for air, coughing up blood as you do so. "Ya worthless piece 'o filth." "What comes around goes around!" And then, Krokodil smashed his bat into your head. You felt your vision fading, but before you passed out, you could make out a girl running up to you and hugging you, your face stuffed into bacon-looking hair... ----------------- You are awoken by the sound of a beep. The beep is constant, coming every few seconds. You really don't want to, but you open your eyes. You're in a room that appears to be very clean, and you're lying in bed. Looking down you notice that you're no longer wearing the clothes you put on this morning. You also see that your arm has an IV Drip attached. You realize that you're sitting in hospital. But who's that girl that's asleep, with her head next to your legs? You recognize the bacon hair, but you just can't remember the name... "S-Sunset Shimmer?" She opens her eyes and looks up at you. She immediately perks up and hugs you, tears coming out of her eyes. "I'm so glad youre okay." "Why would you be worried about me in the first place? I broke your heart..." She pulls away from you and looks at you with a comforting smile. "Either way, I was still worried about you." ".." After reviewing no reply, she kisses you. You were surprised, of course, but you eventually turned into mush, just clay in Sunset's hands, to be shaped to her will. At this, you threw your stereotype out the window. After too short a time, Sunset pulls away. You say jokingly, "y'know, the nerd isn't supposed to get the girl." "I know. But either way, you're still my nerd." At this, she reconnects your lips. A love story. What were you expecting? But in the end everything turned out okay. Krokodil and Jenkem get to jail, Rarity and Applejack don't sue you, and, best of all, you got Sunset Shimmer. Again, I ask you, what were you expecting? THE END
