"Feather?! We're gonna be late! Come on!" Mom shouted from downstairs.
"Oh, uh, coming!" I responded as I got my bags and descended the staircase. First day of school. I got to go to Ponyville Elementary, and I was so excited because the other CMC members were going with me.
"You're gonna love it! Lots of new colts and fillies will be there!" Mom said as we flew towards Ponyville. I stopped and jumped onto the nearest cloud. I couldn't go anymore. I was too shy to even try. I curled up on the soft cloud, and Mom started shouting my name.
"I'm over here!" I yelled back. A minute later, she landed next to me and wrapped me in her wing to hold me close.
"What's the matter? You seemed so excited to go!" I just sat there in silence.
"I need you to come with me and meet up with the others. We aren't going to school yet." She said. I took off after she had, and we kept going towards ponyville.
When we finally reached our destination, we were standing outside of Rarity's boutique. We waited about five minutes before Applejack showed up with Applebloom and Scootaloo. A few minutes later, Rarity and Sweetie Belle came out with huge smiles on their faces. Sweetie belle's face was red, and Rarity spoke up all of a sudden.
"I'm sorry we're late, I had to talk to Sweetie Belle about a, uh, new dress I'm designing! Right Sweetie Belle?"
Sweetie Belle just nodded. Her face had returned to its normal color, but she still had a humongous smile on her face.
Twilight came out of nowhere with a camera.
"Alright! Every pony get together! All the CMC members huddled into a small lineish circley thing and smiled as the flash from the camera went off. Twilight took a series of photos with moms/sisters and without. When it was my turn to take a picture with mom, I walked over and before I could say anything, mom lifted me onto her back and opened her wings. Is she posing? I asked myself. I shrugged and did the exact same pose as a symphony of 'awes' came from the others. It was my turn for my face to go red. You couldn't really see it though. I started to walk away when Mom called me back.
"Hang on! One more, then you have to take a picture by yourself."
I sighed as I sat next to her. She wrapped me in her wing and the flash went off. Then I took a picture by myself, and it was all over. I flew up into a tree next to us, and lied down on a thick branch. I couldn't help but think about what every pony would think of me. I'm not like them; I have wings and a horn. I set my head on my hooves and sighed. Life is never going to be easy for me. I thought to myself. Then, all of a sudden, the entire tree shook and I fell the short distance to the ground. I got up and rubbed my head. Applejack had kicked the tree, causing me to fall. I had no idea she was that strong.
"C'mon sugarcube, it's almost time to go!" I walked back over to mom and she was glaring at Applejack. I picked up my bags as Rarity whispered something to mom. Her face went from a frown to a huge smile. What weren't they telling me?! I walked over to Scootaloo, who was standing next to her scooter with Applebloom. She had a huge smile on her face too! I looked around, every pony had creepy gigantic smiles and it was silent.
"Why is every pony smiling so much?" I asked Scootaloo as she put her helmet on.
"You'll find out eventually!" She said as she clicked the strap on her helmet and sped off into the distance.
"Oh, shoot! Y'all are gonna be late! Let's go!" Applejack yelled as she ran off after Scootaloo.
When we caught up to Scootaloo, she was getting off her scooter in front of the big red schoolhouse. We all stopped, said our goodbyes, and I headed towards the door as mom began to talk. I couldn't hear what she said, but Rarity talks like she's using a bullhorn, so I could hear her clearly.
"I know! All three of them!" They started laughing as I walked inside.
I saw all three of the girls occupying the desks in the corner of the room. They waved to me and I walked over and took a seat next to Applebloom.
Note: I need every pony to go to my profile and vote on my poll. Pweeese?
NOTE: Thunderdrop, as long as you post links and stuff, I'm fine with it! Also, there has to be a better way to communicate than this. :/
