Digimon Academy

"Welcome to the beginners class everypony." Lightning said, chalking a few words on the chalkboard.

"Today, We'll be learning about ultimate level digimon. Who wants to take a guess at what that means?"

The room kept eerily silent as somepony in the back coughed.

"Ugh FINE! I'll do it.." A hybrid in the front said, raising a hoof.

She was a hybrid of dragon and pony, having the wings and back half of a dragon with green scales, while having the front half of a pony with green fur. Her tail had a tuft of cyan fur on the edge, the same color of her mane. She had reptilian orange eyes that sort of unnerved ponies when she would look at them.

"A ultimate level digimon is one higher than a champion... I think..." She said, lowering her hoof.

"Very good Emerald. I see you studied." Lightning said, nodding.

Turning to the chalkboard, he said "A ultimate level digimon is very powerful and some can even take down mega level digimon, With some difficulty. Some digimon don't make it to the Ultimate level, The reasons why is unknown."

Essence listened with amazment as lightning went on to talk more about different levels of digimon.

"COMANDRAMON!"

"Yes, lord Hades sir!" Conandramon said, saluting Hades.

"It's time we show these pitiful ponies that we mean business..." Hades said, laughing darkly.

"Shall I get Huckmon, Sir?" Comandramon asked.

"He's pathetic... I don't know why I brought him here in the first place!" Hades scoffed.

Comandramon couldn't help but feel a pang of pity for Huckmon.

"Sir... Why are you bringing... That?!"

The sound of a bell rang out, signaling that it was time to leave class.

"... And that's all for today." Lightning concluded.

The room of ponies quickly flooded out, leaving only Ditzy, Essence and Night alone in the room with lightning.

"So, You wanna get some lunch?" Lighting said, walking over to the trio.

"Sure." Night said.

Ditzy and Essence nodded eagerly.

"Well, lets go." Lightning said, walking out with the others.

"Oh hey guys!" Essence said, waving at rainy and crescent.

"Oh hey Ess!" Rainy said, ushering the foursome over.

"Oh hey... Essence..." Crescent said, sheepishly.

Using his magic he pushed a small box a tiny bit closer to him from under the table.

"Uh.. Listen.. Essence?" Crescent said, finding the courage to talk.

"Yeah?" Essence replied, blushing a bit.

Using his magic, Crescent floated a box over to Essence.

"I meant to give this to you at Hearth's warming... but I got wrapped up in the festivities.. a bit..."

Essence unwrapped the box and saw it was a small locket. She opened the small heart and saw it had Crescent's and her cutie marks in it, as well as their initials.

"Oh wow! Crescent I don't-" She started before she was interrupted by Crescent pecking her on the cheek.

Night stood there, shocked. Rainy had a expression of pure delight. Ditzy had the same expression, while Lightning was over getting some hay fries.

"We got to have a talk... Crescent..." Night said, his voice pure with rage.

"Meh... it was worth it." Crescent said, having a good idea what came next.

He followed Night into the halls, where he threw a punch at his face.

"OW!" He cried, barely dodging.

"WHY THE HELL DID YOU KISS MY SISTER!?" Night screamed at him, Ace and Nightfury trying to hold him back.

"Because I love her! I've loved her since I saw her! Are you really going to be that big of a jerk!?" Crescent yelled back.

"Well apparently so!" Night said throwing another punch.

Crescent dodged it and threw a punch back, hitting his target.

Night flinched and tried to throw a punch back, which was blocked by Ace and Nightfury.

"Colts!" Ace cried.

"Are you really going to act like idiots just because somepony kissed somepony's sister!?" Nightfury yelled.

The two colts fell silent.

"If I ever catch you ANYWHERE near my sister, you're dead."

Night glared at Crescent before walking down the hall, Ace following swiftly at his heels.

"... Why doesn't anything work out..." Crescent muttered, walking back to his dorm room until classes started again.

"Crescent..." Nightfury said, running quickly after him.

Suddenly there was a loud boom as the whole building shook.

"What the-!" Crescent said, galloping at full speed back to the Cafeteria .

"Where's Night!?" Essence cried, running up to Crescent.

"We had a little... Problem..." He said, folding his ears back.

"He punched you, didn't he." Essence deadpanned.

"Yeah..."

"Oh I forgot..." Essence said, before kissing Crescent on his cheek.

"And don't worry about Night, I'll have a little talk with him later." Essence said to a blushing Crescent.

"R-right.. Well we better see what's going on." He said, the others joining him.

The all nodded and sprinted out, joining the already growing crowd outside.

"HADES! Why do you return!?" Blue moon yelled.

"To play a little... game with two of your students...." He said, grinning.

His horn ignited, pulling Essence and Crescent from the crowd.

"Now now, my two little digidestined... I've come to make sure you don't ruin my plans..." he said, laughing.

"What!?" Essence cried out.

"What the hell are you talking about!?" Crescent hissed.

"You don't know? Well, I'd better show you..." He said, laughing as he teleported away, dragging the two along for the ride.

"ESSENCE!" Night yelled from a window.

The laughing echoed until the whole courtyard was silent.

"Essence..." Night said again, tears streaming from his eyes.
