> Ivy's Bullies (Fan continuation) > by Blackdust > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1.5: Problem? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Ivy lay in the mud crying, a shadow moved from behind the trees and followed the two bullies intent on repaying them the indecency they caused such a beautiful mare. Or was Ivy a woman? Girl? Well whatever she was, her aura was absolutely BEAUTIFUL when she was happy and absolutely horrendous when she was sad. "Hey!" The shadow called out, stopping the colts in their tracks, confusion temporarily coloring their auras before recognition and disgust replaced it. But the pony that called them out only felt even angrier at this, and said, "That was SO not cool! Don't you know it's wrong to be a bully, not just morally, but also legally?" One of the two colts scoffed, probably the one on the right since the one on the left had a twinge of fear run through him for a second, while the other one said, "Oh look! It's the OTHER freak! The blind unicorn that can't even levitate a quill! What are you gonna do, huh? Go and cry to mommy like the little baby you and Freako 1 over there are?" This made the unicorn mad. VERY mad. So mad that the unicorns brain shut itself down and only registered one thing. MAKE THEM PAY. That's when the unicorn 'blacked out' as it were. When he regained control over his mind and body, he was holding the colt that made the comment about Ivy up to a tree, fear and pain obvious in his aura, while yelling something about how Ivy was more a pony than both those colts put together a thousand fold. That's when he felt something envelope his entire being and forcefully, but gently, pull him away from the other colt. "By Celestia's own mother, Flamehoof, what is wrong with you!? You almost killed him!" The teacher. That's when Flamehoof knew he messed up. But he had no regrets over what he did. If given the choice to do something different, he'd do it again, just to try even harder the second time. "They do not understand the beauty of life itself! Why should insignificant curs like them be allowed to live when all they do is hurt those that are harmless and appreciate the small things that come to them when they can!? Granted I myself shouldn't be allowed to live based off of that statement, but still!" He shouted, reasoning with both himself and the frightened teacher. "That does not justify-!" "Actually, in his case, it does. He sees and thinks differently. He can't use basic spells like levitation because his mind can't grasp simple concepts like how to gently move something that he can't really see too well," said the principle. "But we will need to call both his, Ivy's, and both the bullies parents in order to get this problem resolved as quickly and efficiently as possible." > Chapter 2: He did what?!? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flamehoof's mother couldn't be more furious if she tried. His father on the other hoof, couldn't be prouder. Ivy's parents were worried, but her dad was happy that somepony stood up for her while her mom was scared that in escalating the situation, he may have simply thrown her to the timberwolves. The parents of other two colts were more worried about how much they could get out of both Ivy's and his parents to keep from filing a lawsuit, and if said sue would get them more money in the long haul. "Infernal little... They are horrible if they are more concerned with the well being of their wallets, than the well being of their children..." Flamehoof thought to himself. "Flamehoof! I thought I told you before it's not nice to read others minds! No matter how much it will help in the long run..." His mother chided him. It was only then that he realized he said it out loud. His response to this was to merely shrug and continue counting the number of ways to possibly make someone insane with his aura manipulation level of magic. It wasn't until he had gotten to trick number 207 that he noticed everyone in the room staring at him. All but Ivy were filled with confusion and fear, Ivy had a mix of fear, gratitude, and confusion. But mostly gratitude from what he could see. "Flamehoof, did you really almost kill that fool?" His father asked, both surprised and scared about the answer. The colt's father looked at Flamehoof's dad and sputtered, saying, "I beg your pardon?! Your brat-" *SMACK!* The sound filled the now silent office as everyone but Flamehoof looked to both his mother and Ivy's as they were both standing on front of the stunned father as he slowly reached up and felt both of his cheeks from the blows of both furious mothers. That silence was broken by a barking laughter as Flamehoof tried and failed to contain his amusement that both mothers were angry at one target. This of course did not go down too well with the rest of the adults in the room, as everyone that wasn't preoccupied by either giving a death stare to the father, or the father himself, snapped to him with looks of fury that made even a blind colt like him squirm. It continued like that for a few more hours until it was finally decided that he and Ivy would be placed in a special class for the new ponies that are starting to show... abnormalities. Mutants is how we would know them as, but they call them the New Wave. They all have something unusual about them, but the changes are often times useful and beneficial for their survival. Only problem is how much fear they have for the New Wave. This, coupled with the fact that Flamehoof just tried to kill a regular colt for something he said, didn't really help him trying to stay in the same class, let alone same school.
