Cutiemark Coltfriends
Stirring Things Up
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMiss Cheerilee was already starting to have a stressful day and the sight before her eyes did not help very much; athough the site before was very cute, she had to maintain a professional manner and take appropriate action.
"Scootaloo, let go of rumble right now or I'll have to put you in trouble as well for violating school rules." Miss Cheerillee commanded.
Scootaloo's eyes shot open at the realization of what she was doing. She saw all her class mates staring at her, some were laughing and making kissing noises while others were completely shocked at what they saw. Scootaloo jumped off of Rumble as fast as her on her scooter, her face was turning a deep shade of crimson visible to everyone. As Rumble began to get back up on his hooves, Scootaloo heard a loud snicker from someone behind her. She turned around to see it was Spike on the ground laughing. Scootaloo became defensive and ran up to spike face.
"Stop laughing, it's not funny." Scootaloo yelled.
"Yeah It is." Spike said back still with a hint of laughter in his voice. "It's funny because I never thought somepony like you would ever get all mushy over colts!"
"I'm not mushy over colts and even if I was I wouldn't hide it even though everypony in all of Equestia knows about it!" Scootaloo shot back.
"And just what is that supposed to mean!"
"It means-"
"Everypony Sit Down!" Miss Cheerilee interrupted.
Everypony in the class room sat at their desks except for Spike and Scootaloo who just stared at Miss Cheerilee with a surprised yet worried expression on their faces.
Miss Cherilee let out a light, calming shigh.
"First off when I said everypony sit down that includes you Scootaloo."
Scootaloo gave Spike a quick glare before going back to her seat.
"Now Spike, would you like to explain to me why you are here."
"I...uh...well.." Spike had to come with a reason for showing up because he knew if he didn't have a good reason, Miss Cheerilee would tell Twilight about what had happened. "Well..I wanted... to join the class today since Twilight gave me the day off and what better way to spend the day than...learn." Spike internally gave himself a pat on the back for coming with such a good excuse so quickly.
"Really, Twilight told me the only reason you aren't enrolled in the school is beacuse she's already taught you things at a much higher level than for your age group." Miss Cheerilee replied.
"Oh well then how about I helo you teach class I'm sure your tired and all."
well I do have some work to catch up on.Miss Cheerilee thought to herself. "Fine, you can help teach the class today. Since all of this commotion has cut into our history time you can help teach the language lesson for the last hour of the day."
Miss Cheerilee walked to her desk and gave Spike the lesson plan for day.
"That's it, this is easy." The class gave a collected sigh. "It's just parallel sentence structure." The class groaned at the sound of the lesson today.
Spike wasn't too nervous about teaching the class because Twilight would always have him explain his lessons to her on random occasions to make sure he actually knows his lessons.
For rest of the school Spike would teach the class in a very impressive manner and was able to explain it very clearly to anyone that asked a question. Through out the whole time though, Scootaloo kept firing spitballs at Spike when he or Miss Cheerilee wasn't watching the class. During the last twenty minutes of school the class was working on worksheets. Sweetie Belle raised her hoof for help from Spike.
Spike came over to Sweetie Belle's desk. "What's the problem Sweetie Belle?" Spike asked.
"I don't understand how to make this one correct." Sweetie Belle answered.
Spike examined the question and began to explain the way to answer the question. Sweetie Belle tried to pay attention but her thoughts kept running through her mind. Wow. spike is really smart if he thinks this is easy and it was really kind of him to help out Miss Cheerilee. The light caused Spike scales to glimmer and shine different colors of the reflected light.Now that I'm actually paying attention to him, Spike looks kind of cute. Sweetie Belle began to blush.
"So do you understand it now."
Sweetie Belle immediately snapped out of her thoughts." Uh..yeah thanks for the help Spike." Sweetie Belle answered nervously.
Spike gave her a smile and headed to front of the classroom where he chatted with Miss Cheerilee fot the last 17 minutes of class.
What am I thinking I don't like Spike like that, he's just a friend. Sweetie Belle thought. Besides I like somepony else and he's smart and cute and funny and... No stop you're too young to like colts anyway. Sweetie Belle broke away from her thoughts as Miss Cheerilee began to speak.
"Okay class there's no homework tonight thanks tonight so you can all leave as soon as the bell rings."
The bell rang and all the fillies and colts rushed out the door as fast as lightning. Spike stayed behind as Miss Cheerilee thanked him for his help teaching today. He exited out the school building and saw Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle getting in a wagon attached to Scootaloo's scooter. He was about to call to them until he overheard the raspy voice of a young colt.
"Yeah. I just got the new Asteroid Destruction 2 game wanna come play it with me?"
Spike stopped in his tracks. "Really!" Spike yelled towards the young colt. "I've seen that game advertised all over ponyville and always wanted to play it but Twilight doesn't let me play video games, she says their too unhealthy. Do you mind if I come play it with you." Spike asked with excitement in his voice.
"Hmm I never played against a dragon before...Sure!"
"Yes!" Spike exclaimed. "Thank You! What's your name anyways."
"Button Mash and these are my friends Pipsqueak and Featherweight. Usually rumble comes with us as well but he had to stay for detention." Button Mash answered.
Spike gave each of them a proper greeting and began talking with them on the way to Button's house.
"So Spike. What made you want to help Miss Cheerilee teach today?" Pipsqueak asked Spike.
"Well actually I just happened to be on a hill overlooking the playground when all the commotion happened. I couldn't see much and i just had to now what happened so i decided to wait outside the school until the end of the school day until i heard crash inside the classroom so i ran in only to see.." Spike let out a few giggles before continuing. "Scootaloo of all ponies squeezing Rumble in a huge hug! Haha! So when Miss Cheerilee asked why I was here I needed to come up with an excuse so I wouldn't get in trouble with Twilight so i said I came to join the class only to end up teaching instead."
"Speaking of Twilight. What is it like to be an assistant and practically son of not only the new princess but also the element of magic?" Featherweight asked with gleaming eyes.
" It's not all it's cracked up to be. Sure there are some perks but not many. For example..."
"Scootaloo, are ya sure ya can take us all the way to our club house with only one wing?"
"Of course I can. I mean it'll be a little bit harder than usual but I'm always up for a challenge."
"I don't know Scootaloo, what if you get hurt or crash."
" What do you now Sweetie Belle. You're no doctor."
"She don't have ta be a doctor to have common sense Scootaloo."
"Ha! like you can talk about common sense, Apple Bloom."
"None of us can talk 'bout common sense, we all did stuff that nearly got us killed or hurt other ponies, Scootaloo!"
"Will you two be QUIET!" Screamed Sweetie Belle with her voice cracking. "If you two can't get along then I don't want to crusade today. I'll just go play with Button instead."
"Aw." Apple Bloom said mockingly. "Is l'il Sweetie Belle goin' ta see her coltfreind." Apple Bloom made kissing noises.
"He's not my coltfriend Apple Bloom but at least me Scootaloo try to be around our crushes instead of avoiding them like you."
"Well maybe it's because I don't want a coltfriend."
"Ha! now who's a chicken!"
"Shut up Scootaloo!"
"That's I'm going to see Button. Bye!"
"Well I'm gonna go home to! Bye!"
"Well so am I. Bye!"
Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo all went there separate ways. Apple Bloom went to help Applejack and Big Macintosh on the farm, Sweetie Belle went to Button's house, and Scootaloo went home.
Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick... This was the only sound in the classroom. The only ponies there were Miss Cheerilee doing work on her desk and Rumble sitting at his desk quietly, idly, alone. There was no work to do or any books to read, just his thoughts. He laid his head in his hooves, closed his eyes and let his thoughts race.
Thunderlane is going to be so mad at me, how do I explain it to him. Well I could tell him the truth but he'll get mad; well that's better than telling a lie. But I don't want to lie to Thunderlane besides I only did to protect Scootaloo. If i tell him the truth though he'll now I have a crush on her and he'll just tease me about it. Why shouldn't I tell him? He told me has a crush on Rarity and Rainbow Dash. He said he liked Rarity because they had "A moment." while he was at the Wonderbolt Academy but he lies Rainbow Dash because of how layback, cool, exciting, hot and all other ind of things. So why not tell him about Scootaloo and how she's fun to be around, how brave she is, how good she looks, how awesome she is on her scooter, how good she smells, how pretty her eyes are, the sound of her voice, the feeling of her fur... FWOOSH!
Rumble snapped immediately out of his thought as his wing spread up and open their own and began to throb. He blushed redder than than the reddest apple. Miss Cheerilee glanced up at him but she just ignored his wings and continued her work. Rumble tried to push his wings back down to his sides only to fail two or three times. This coused miss Cheerilee to stifle a laugh. She glanced at the clock and let out a small breath.
"Okay Rumble, you can leave now."
Rumble had just finished getting his wings under control.
"Oh. Okay." Have a nice day Miss Cheerilee.
She giggled. "You to Rumble."
As soon as Rumble got out the door, he put on his saddlebag, spread his wings and took off into the sky.
"...and that's when Twilight tried to steel Mr. Smartypants back from Big Mac." Spike finished as the group of colts reached Button's house."
"Alright guys come in. Spike let me introduce you to my mom."
Spike looked up to see a cream colored mare with a light brown mane and tail. His jaw dropped.
"hey aren't you Twilight Sparkles assistant Spike." Button's mom asked.
"Y Yes I am.I It's nice to meet you..."
"Mom. just call me mom."
"S Sure m mom." He answered.
'Well let me tell you that we'revery happy to have the assistant of the newly crowned princess at our house." She said patting the spikes on his head.
Spike practically melted as he felt her touch.
"Come on Spike. Let me show you my room."
"Wow am I glad I decided to came with you guys." Spike said.
"Well it's about to get better."
Button opened the door to his room bringing the sight of every young colts dream. The room was full of games and gaming systems that were old and new ranging from hay boxes to joy boys. Spike felt a tear come to his eyes.
"So what do you think?" Button asked as they entered his room.
"It's amazing! I've never seen so many games in my entire life!"
"Luckily for you, Asteroid Destruction 2 is for the Hay Box which I just so happen to have a controller customly designed for claws or hands I think is what Lyra called them."
"Yes! common guys grab a controller and let's play!"
"They all picked up a controller and as Button put his new game in the hay box for them all to enjoy.
Wow. Spike thought. So this is what it's like to have friends.
Twilight was sitting at her desk studying her books as usual. She was currently study Ancient Unicorn Spell Forgotten by Ponykind. As she read she came across a section of the book. It read.
This spell allows a unicorn to summon an ancient creature that will allow the summoner an all mighty power beyond that of Celestia but can only be summoned with dark magic.
"Dark magic. I think I had better skip this one and move on, it seems kind of dangerous."
Twilight moved on but her curiosity got the best of her.
"I'm sure if I cast just once nothing too bad will happen, I mean power beyond Celestia...What's he worse that could happen.
Twilight read the spell and closed her eyes, when she opened them her eyes were green and dark purple smoke poured out of her eyes, her horn glowed dark puprple and green then she blacked out.
"Hello Twilight..."
