Digimon Academy
Chapter nine: Something witty about love.
Previous ChapterNext ChapterEssence yawned as she woke up to a very rainy day, and not the kind she was living with.
"Darn..." She muttered.
Essence flew down to the floor to wake up rainy was gone. However, there was a note on the table. She picked it up and read it.
Essence,
I won't be here when you wake up because I wanted to show Ditzy around before the rainstorm that was scheduled today hit. I should be done by the time you see this so meet me in the mess hall.
Rainy.
(And draco!)
She put the note back and shook wasp.
"Mmm... Five more minutes..." He muttered and turned on his side.
"What a lazy digimon..." Essence said, picking him up.
She put him on her back and started to make her way down to the mess hall/Cafeteria.
"I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE PRISSY PRINCESSES DON'T GET INVOLVED!" Hades roared at a group of ponies.
"W-we tried b-but they caught on quick!" A white pegasus stallion with a blue mane said, cowering under the gaze of his master.
"... I'm sick of ponies who are idiots... Send them to get their memories erased and dump them in a random part of equestria. Preferably the Everfree." Hades order a couple digimon.
"NO WAIT PLEAAASEE!" The stallion yelled as he was dragged away by the digimon.
There were zaps and screams as the ponies tried to resist.
"Don't worry... It won't hurt... It'll drive you insane..." He said, laughing viciously.
Huckmon watched from around the corner as his master forced those ponies to their doom. He turned towards the hallway, then to an open door. He shook his head and sprinted down the hallway and down a secret floor tile.
Essence walked down the staircase leading to the bottom floor and looked around. It was saturday, but where was everypony? She walked down a hallway leading to a room with a sign taped over it. It read:
'Club registration'
"Huh... Wadda know..." She muttered to herself.
She peeked in the window and saw a huge room with lots of ponies, hybrids and griffons either running stands or signing papers. Lighting was standing at a booth directly straight ahead that read 'Magic lessons.'
"This must be how the we get the outside education... I guess..." She muttered to herself.
"Oh h-hey Essence..." A voice said behind her.
Essence turned around and saw her nose to nose with Crescent.
"OHMYGOSH I'M SO SORRY!" She blurted out, blushing madly.
"No It's my fault!" Crescent blurted out as well, his face equally on fire.
There was a silence between the two as they just stared at the ground.
"S-so... *Cough* What did you n-need?" Essence said, breaking the silence.
"O-oh right! Uh.. I was coming to ask if you w-were going to sign up for anything." He said.
"Uh... I really don't know... I mean... I've got alot going on.. and..." She lied, hoping to move this awkward conversation to the trash.
"It's ok, I'm really not sure if there's any clubs I like either." He said, laughing a bit.
Essence smiled and laughed as well.
"Hm... WHERE AM I?!" Wasp yelled as he suddenly woke up.
"Wasp calm down! It's ok!" Essence shouted at him, her cheeks growing beet red again.
Crescent chuckled a bit at that.
'OH MY CELESTIA HIS LAUGH!! It's so adorable!!!' Essence couldn't help but think.
*Pomf*
Essence's wings suddenly stuck straight up at that thought. Essence's eyes met Crescents.
'Oh... PONYFEATHERS!!!' She thought.
The staring intensified as both their cheeks grew a deeper red.
"MEEP!" She squeaked as she flew out of there, speeds rivaling the sonic rainboom.
"What did I miss?" Nightfury asked as he returned from somewhere.
"Uh... Much.." Crescent said, dreamily.
Essence sat up on a beam she found no one but pegasi or flying digimon could find. Must have been put in for that purpose.
"Ooh... Why were Pegasi cursed to have those..." She muttered to herself, her cheeks still full flare.
"Essence?" A voice said.
"Not now Night..." She said, hoping he would go away.
"Ok... Who's the lucky stallion?" He said, sounding a bit different.
"Night, are you... Smiling?" Essence teased, poking her head upside down.
Sure enough she could see the smallest of grins.
"Ok you got me, The royal guard inside me has broken." He said, laughing.
Essence giggled and flew down, leaving Wasp on his own. She quickly hugged her brother and dug her face in his soft fur.
"Y'know... Hearth's Warming Eve is coming up. Any idea what to get that special somepony?" He teased.
"Stop it!!!" Essence said, pushing away from him.
They shared a laugh and essence said "I have an idea what to get Rainy though."
"Oh yeah? What?"
"It's a secret! I know you'll tease her about it, and she'll do anything to get it out." Essence said.
"Wow, it hasn't been a week and you already know everything about her?" Night replied.
"No, it's how she sort of acted on the first day." Essence simply said.
"Well, I'm going out for a second. Don't get into any trouble, ya hear?" Night said, playfully pushing essence.
"I get it, I get it... I better go find Rainy and Ditzy. They should be back by now... also take a coat. It's still pouring out." Essence said.
"Ok." Night said, walking towards the stallion's dorms.
Essence flew back up to the area where she left Wasp to find him asleep. Again.
"What am I going to do with you..." She sighed.
She picked him up and flew down the hall, back to her dorm. What she didn't know was two eyes were watching from the forest, through the window.
"So... This is who's stopping Master Hades? This is too easy..." The being said, disappearing back into the shadows.
