Ch 1: Meaning of Life
The story usually starts out with our female protagonist waking up from her peaceful slumber only to be slapped in the face with the reality of being terribly late. This leads to her scrambling out of the door looking like a mistake, with her breakfast of a single piece of toast in her mouth, only to crash into her Prince Charming who helps her into school. She falls in love at first sight and does everything she possibly can to achieve her happily ever after. However, the protagonist of this story got up in time and had already eaten breakfast before leaving the house for school. The major difference here is that our protagonist, Princess Cadance Celestia Hoshino Namazaki, hated love and it was the last thing she needed in life.
Despite being a princess, she actually had to go to school. In fact, all the growing heirs and royalty in the continent had to go to school. The continent had been split into many kingdoms and Celestia's kingdom belonged in an alliance known as Fairy Tail. Her kingdom was located in the Fiore District which spilt her into Magnolia Academy. This Magnolia Academy was a joint school which meant it had a elementary, junior high, high school, college, and university too but Celestia had transferred in around the beginning of her first year in junior high since her parents wanted to raise her themselves. However, she was honestly grateful to be transferred in even though it was so late because she was sick of being stuck at home with her parents, locked in a room with her stuffy old tutor who couldn't teach jack shit. But even though she was looking forward to going to school with kids her own age, the motive of her parents for suddenly transferring her deflated her motivation significantly.
It was now the beginning of her second year of high school and she was more than ready to escape from the castle. Earlier that morning, she finished getting dressed in her school uniform and preparing her materials for school before heading into the dining room for her morning discussion with her parents, the current king and queen of the Kagayaku Kingdom. Closing her eyes, she let out a huge sigh as she used her index finger and thumb to pinch and massage her forehead. Just thinking about the conversation gave her a headache.
"Are you alright, Your Highness?" Celestia cracked open an eye and one of her rare smiles slipped across her face as her gaze landed on her worried lady-in-waiting.
Shaking her head, she lowered her hand as she lightly reassured the other, "It's fine. I'm just annoyed with my parents. They gave me their ridiculous talk again." Her smile then dropped as her eyes squinted into a fake glare and her voice changed into a delicate chiding tone, "Also what did I say about calling me Your Highness. Celestia is just fine as it is. We're best friends, Hatsune so there's no need to be so formal."
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! But it's hard to call you that because you're royalty and all.." Hatsune's face suddenly balled up and tears piled up at the waterline of her big bright green eyes. Celestia's smile didn't waver as she pulled a handkerchief out from her sleeve and dabbed the tears away just as smoothly as she had brandished it out.
"Hatsune, you know it's not good to cry now. You're going to make your eyes red and that's not a pretty look." She softly reprimanded her and smoothed back her hair as she let Hatsune wipe her tears away herself. Hatsune slowly nodded her head and soon switched to a big bright smile as she used the handkerchief to wipe the remaining tears away.
"Everything alright in here? I thought I heard Hatsune crying. Was it your parents again, Celest?" A head of black hair popped in from the window of the carriage and the said person blew her purple streaked bangs out of her face as she awaited an answer.
"Yeah, they were trying to get me to wear this ridiculous wig with my old hair color and telling me to find a nice boy this year." She sighed and crossed one of her long legs over the other as her eyes landed on the wretched wig her parents had handed to her which was now sitting on the seat next to her. It definitely looked authentic with its silky texture and smooth flow but she felt so artificial wearing it as if she was lying about who she was.
The reasoning was the same as always. Her parents were desperate to marry her off since she's "of the age" or some bullshit like that. Unfortunately to them, she's a sort of a disgrace to the family because of the color of her hair and her younger sister, who did have the hair color the family worshipped, was too young to marry off. Plus it was tradition for the oldest to rule and it was valid since Celestia was one of the royal blood though the cause of change of hair color is unknown.
"Honestly your parents should seriously lay off your case. It wouldn't hurt for you to rule the kingdom by yourself. From what I've seen, all the princes don't even know how to command a three man army much less run an economy and society." The girl hanging on the carriage door casually insulted the current princes and was now dangerously dangling her legs off the side of the carriage. Hatsune nodded her head in agreement before her face immediately scrunched up again and her dainty eyebrows coursed downwards in furious strokes, "HOW DARE THEY TRY TO COVER UP YOUR HAIR LIKE THAT? I DON'T FUCKING CARE IF IT'S AGAINST THEIR DAMN TRADITION! YOUR HAIR IS PRETTY JUST AS IT IS AND SCREW BOYS, THEY'RE JUST STINKY RATS ANYWAYS."
She balled her fists together and started ranting about how irresponsible her parents were and Celestia's small smile grew into a larger one as she drank in the comfort of her two best and only needed friends. "I appreciate the effort you guys put into cheering me up. It really helps and it's okay that they don't approve of my hair Hatsune. My folks are old and superstitious but honestly I don't really care because I love my hair color. Your words do save me a lot, Hatsune. I'm glad I picked you as my lady-in-waiting" She then turned her head to face the girl hanging out the carriage window and asked in a worrying tone, "Yuuta, I know you've done this a million times and all but it's still dangerous and I worry. Come sit with us inside the carriage."
Yuuta frowned at the request as she liked the sense of freedom and adrenaline she got from the action she committed. However when she saw the serious expression on the princess' face, she shrug and swung herself over the door of the carriage before plopping herself right next to Hatsune. "Happy?" She asked as she dusted off her sleeve. "Very much actually though I don't think the instructors will be when they see your uniform." She replied in a smooth manner.
Despite that all three of them are in different classes of society they all wore the same uniform for school with their own special modifications of course. The female uniform consisted of a sweater worn in the colors of a light dusty yellow or dark red which is worn over a white collared blouse tied with a ribbon of choice. A dark black blazer could be worn but is not required and the bottom portion of the uniform consists of a black skirt with a thin line of gold across the folds, socks of choice (black or white preferably), and school shoes of choice although it's recommended that you don't wear anything too fancy. The male uniform was basically the same as the females'. Same white button down shirt with a choice of a blazer or sweater in the same colors except yellow. A black or red tie is required to be worn with slacks of any color of choice (black is the desired color). The rules for shoes are the same too.
Celestia, having the pressure of being the perfect image, wore the uniform as desired (though she refused the wig) with the white collar of the shirt being tied together with a yellow-orange ombre ribbon loosely but securely. A red sweater was thrown over the blouse and she choose to wear the blazer without it buttoned up. The socks she choose to wear were black as recommended and were knee high but if you looked really closely, you would be able to see star designs carefully stitched. Ready to study, her bangs were swept to the side and clipped back with pins as the top portion of her hair was pulled back pinned in place with mere plain black clasp. Her petite feet were tucked into a pair of black wedges with little star clusters as clasps on the straps. On her face perched a pair of thick black framed fake glasses which hide her face from view.
Hatsune wore the uniform more loosely and girly as she ditched the blazer and wore a big long sleeved baggy yellow sweater over her blouse with a big red ribbon tied at the collar. Her hair was left alone after a simple brush as it hung in it's usual curly mess over her shoulders and down her back while the socks she wore matched her ribbon except they were more of a shin length. And the shoes she choose to wear were dainty black flats.
Free and sloopy is how you would describe Yuuta's way of wearing the uniform. She was image of how you shouldn't wear the uniform. She too didn't wear the blazer and her red sweater was instead wrapped around her waist. Her blouse didn't have a ribbon, instead with the top button undone, and she adapted the male version of the uniform and wore black slacks instead of the skirt. The shoes she wore were worn out sneakers and her blacks socks were unseen because of the slacks. Her long black hair was pulled back in its usual ponytail except for her purple bangs which fit her tomboyish style and there was mysteriously a white eyepatch covering up her right eye.
At that moment in the carriage, Celestia was adding one more addition to her uniform which was sliding on a pair of black shorts under the black skirt. But her parents, power hungry and love bitten as they were, encouraged Celestia to go without it to attract men with her "stunning bod" which she refused to ever do and their encouragement only lead to her promising to never go without it. Yuuta was also an overprotective mother to Celestia and was ready to force her to wear the shorts even if she didn't want to. When she caught Celestia's eye as she was putting them on, she gave her a nod of approval. Hatsune at the moment was staring at the wig and she curled one of the long straight strands around her finger as she asked thoughtfully, "Hey looking at this wig makes me wonder how Yuuki would look like crossdressed… I wonder what he would like with this on…"
The carriage was filled with complete silence for a few seconds as Cheshire Cat grins spread across the faces of the girls.
"That my friend is a brilliant plan."
