How it all began

You frown to look up from your text book, yep. It's her again, that weird mare with a grey coat and electric looking mane, she seemed to be sitting there writing about something. Celestia knows what it actually is, the mare was as predictable as a fortune cookie missing it's fortune, you frown at her with more of a snarling look on your face as if expecting her to turn and look at you to see how you felt with her stupidity, but instead of that happening you hear your math teacher call her name.

"Midnight Cloudettè. Stand up and bring your book over right now!" As usual Mister Thunder's voice seemed to give off that terrifying superior tone. Midnight had stood up and trotted over to him nervously, you squint your eyes to attempt to see what she had written, but this attempted failed mainly because you were at the back of the class. You begin to notice the entire class now watching the teacher and Midnight, he asks for Midnight to give her book to him, which she does. He flicks through the pages and you watch the look of shock and repulse on his face which makes you slightly intrigued on what he was looking at.

"Miss Midnight." He states her name in a cold manner that sends shivers down your own back, making your feathers quiver along with your wings. "How old exactly are you?" He continues with what he was saying. The once smiley and excited looking mare had now gone dead quiet, her yellow strip in her mane and tail glowing and fading slowly as she gulps and you hear her shakily respond with. "S-S-Si-.." She had taken a slight breath before quickly saying. "S-Sixteen turning s-seventeen next m-m-month!!"

You smirk hearing this, of course you're older and more mature than her, there was no doubt in your mind. Now the entire class was dead silent, listening in to what was happening, Mister Thunder asked in a calm and seemingly normal tone. "And what class is this?" Where Midnight shakily responds with. "M-Maths.." Mister Thunders eyebrows lower as he begins to frown some. "Then why am I reading a pornographic story with pictures to match and see no math work?!" Midnight seemed to freeze up as this was said, the entire class hearing it and Midnight freezes up and gulps a bit as her entire body begins shaking as she hung her head and said in an almost whispering tone. "I-I'm sorry...sir..it won't happen again..."

You watch her as she slowly trots back to the back of the classroom, buzzing like sounds coming from all of the students as they begin gossiping about what had just happened. All the while you just hold back quiet laughs, snickering occasionally as you feel so grateful that it wasn't you in that position, but she got what was coming to her anyways. You look at her to see her glowy mane being exceptionally dull, from what you know it changes tone depending on her mood, but why would you care? She is just a simpleton that had what was coming to her anyways, if she was as smart and cautious as you, then you don't think she'd ever be in trouble.

You watch her sulking quietly as she looks at the ponies looking at the short mare and continuing their gossiping. You put a hoof on your temples and rub them a little as you look at the wall behind the teacher, looking up at the clock to see class was almost over, it had about five more minutes. You sigh loudly and tap your hoof on the table, unlike Midnight you had done no work or anything the entire class, but you are way too stubborn to admit that to yourself. You check the time again, four minutes and thirty seconds left until lunch began, you groan loudly and think aloud. "Why does it always seem to take so long for class to end in the last five minutes?" It had seemed that Midnight had heard and giggled quietly, saying to you. "Well that's because you're impatient for the ending of the lesson! You just wanna get out of class."

You grit your teeth together and scowl at her as she continues smiling, you quickly respond with. "No. It's because time is slower." 'She isn't right, she is never right.' You think to yourself and she just shrugs with a bright smile, that smile. Oh how it pissed you off, she smiles over everything! Why can't she ever just be upset for once? Everything seems to go perfectly for her, although you had just contradicted yourself because she'd just been told off in front of class. Well...she had gotten off scot-free and seemed to be fine with what had happened.

"Stop looking at me!" You demand, she responds with a squeak and blushes a slight purple as she looks away quickly. You scowl at her and wonder what the hell she's doing again, why does she constantly piss you off more than everyone else? A loud ringing sound was heard and Midnight zips out of the room quickly with a loud squeak, you just groan as you slowly stand up. You tower above generally everyone in the school because of your freakish height, the closest to your height was a full head and a half shorter than you, the average sized ponies were about two thirds of your height whereas Midnight was around half your height.

You trot out into the cafeteria and look around, you see an empty table at the back of the room. You head over there and sit down on it, luckily it was in the corner of the room so it was very secluded and quiet in this area, just how you liked it. Your ears twitched as you hear somepony approaching, your eyes dart towards where the noise was coming from only to find out it was her again. Midnight. She was looking at you with big and curious purple eyes which seemed to sparkle the longer she looks, she had been acting like this for as long as you could remember which was since the day you arrived to this school, The Fillydelphia High School. It was a standard school for the public, not like those prissy private schools you used to be from. Not to be said you got kicked out of because you were too lazy and started arguments with teachers who put you down.

"WHAT?!" You yell out in a pissy tone, Midnight's mind seems to snap to what she was doing and quickly looks away, down to her food. She looks at you a bit and asks quietly. "U-Um..do..do you ha-have any f-food Miss Hazel?" You grit your teeth and stare her in the eyes. "What does it matter?" You say quietly, to which she responds with. "Well, you look really r-really hungry and such.." She confidently moves over to your table, how dare she, and pushes her lunch bag to you. "Have whatever you want!" You hear her tone becoming more and more confident with the more she spoke, you take a quick look inside to see a bunch of mixed food such as a slice of cake, a banana and some biscuits with cheese. You make a disgusted noise and push it away, having an upturned snout as if looking down upon her. "Unlike you, I care for my body and am trying to keep a healthy complexion, I do not eat disgusting fatty foods...unlike YOU!" You said in a disgusted tone.

"O-Oh it's alright..I-I don't mind! I just was...a little worried since you've been looking exceptionally skinny today and I just..w-wanted to make sure you were all okay!" She stuttered out, you hear her confidence slipping again. You put on a sick smile as you take pleasure in her loosing confidence, it was about time she felt emotional pain. Just as you think this in your head you notice a goofy smile on her face and she continued. "B-Because..I'd hate t-to see you sick...such a pr-pretty mare..shouldn't starve or such Hazel.." She said with a soft purple blush, she suddenly stands up and trots away making shy noises leaving you confused and unsure on what had just happened. 'Why? Why is she not upset? Almost instantly she was smiling and didn't care what I had said...she just smiled and pushed it aside...why?' You think to yourself and groan a bit, your stomach rumbling. Damn it, Midnight bringing up how hungry you are made you feel how hungry you truly were.

You look around quickly and quickly move out of the cafeteria holding the lunch bag Midnight seemed to have forgotten. As you exit you don't see Midnight smiling softly as she watches you leave with the bag, once you're hidden well under the stairs of the first level you begin digging into the food she had. Oh god her cake had tasted amazing, did she cook this? Did she but it? You didn't know and you didn't care, you were feeling starving and couldn't help but dig in. "Stupid Pegasus/Pony/Cat hybrid electrical science potion screw up thing..." You mumble as Midnight pops into your mind again, after you finished all of the food you slump back with a satisfied sigh, hearing the bell ring you smack your head softly against the back of the wall. You couldn't be bothered going to your last class, so you decided you might as well skip it, you see no reason to go to it since it was...you shudder a little, physical education. God how you hated that subject, you shudder again at the thought of it and then roll over onto your side, relaxing on the cold concrete which was somehow possible for you and drift off into a restless sleep.

You grunt a little while later to feel a soft poking at your side, your eyes slowly open, everything comes off blurry and you struggle to remember where you were. You then remember just where you were and look around a bit, seeing a soft yellow glow right in front of you. "You hadn't showed up to class, so I figured I'd find you here. I mean it's where you went last." You look at the short mare who was offering help up, you were feeling slightly sick in the stomach. You now regret eating the cake and were thinking of giving a smart remark but blush in shame as you hold your hoof out and she helps lift you to your hooves. "There ya go. Are you feeling alright Hazel?" She asks politely as you scoff at her and grumble a bit. "No. Not after you let me have that crappy cake, my stomach is rejecting it!" She just responds with her usual giggle and moves your hoof around her shoulders, you have to lower yourself a bit to shamefully lean on her. She looks up at you and says in a curious voice. "What happened to your pretty scarf Hazel? You wear it everywhere, why not today?" You sigh quietly and respond to what she says. "It got dirty, so I had to leave it at home today.." She nodded a little at this and said in a caring tone. "Well you still look pretty without one, I woulda lent you mine if I'd known!"

You can't help but smile a little at this, although all you had done to her was be an absolute jerk to her she was always hanging around you and trying to help in almost every situation where something bad had happened to you. "Midnight..." You say quietly, she looks up at you and asks. "Yes Hazel?" You look down slowly and sigh a little. "Could...could you help me home please..?" She nodded happily and responds in her optimistic tone. "Sure thing Hazel!"

After around twenty minutes the two of you arrive at your home, she was still helping you around. As you arrive at the door you lean forward and unlock it slowly opening it, as you do this Midnight helps you inside and lies you down on a couch. She pulls up a leg rest and sits on it, she looks at you brightly and gently rubs small circles on your belly, in your head all you could do was wonder why she acted so kindly and calmly with all you put her through. As the rubbing continues you let out a contempt sigh and relax slowly, your stomach feeling at ease. You look down at the small Pegasus Kitty hybrid thing and ask quietly in a guilty tone. "Why do you treat me with so much kindness..? After all the crap I put you through you should hate me..." Midnight goes quiet a bit before looking you in the eye and saying seriously. "Before my mummy and daddy disappeared I had made a promise to them I'd be nice to everypony..it was after I had an argument with a bully.." You were slightly annoyed that she hadn't directly answered your question but softly ask again. "Yes..but why don't you hate me..? I mean...that's enough to make you want to break that..why didn't you ever retaliate?"

Midnight just gives a toothy smile and said proudly to her. "Because Hazel, then you wouldn't want to be friends." That did it, you tear up almost instantly and become a sniveling mess in seconds, Midnight screams in shock and begins blubbering out nonsense, it sounded like she was blaming herself and apologizing. What a strange and silly mare she was, you take a deep breath as you shake your head and sniffle hard and say in a shaky voice. "Midnight...how..why..why would you want..to be friends with a jerk like me...?" Midnight calms down almost instantly and then softly hugs your hoof and says into her ear quietly as if telling a secret. "Because...you really aren't a jerk, you hide all of your emotions behind that." Your hooves shake a bit and you pull her closely against you, just tightly hugging her. Emotions flood into your body, making you feel many things at once 'She knew..she somehow knew...all those times she brushed my insults off because she knew..they weren't genuine..' You think quietly as you let out a happy sigh. A few quiet purrs coming from her as she looks up at you and then snuggles up to your chest. "Is it okie if I fall asleep here?" You couldn't help but nod a little and you ruffle her messy mane gently. "Midnight, I'm fine with that..a-as long as you're fine with me falling asleep beneath you...I'm feeling all worn out, emotions do that to me.." You lie as you pull her closer and she just softly nuzzles your chest once more before falling asleep. You smile softly and soon follow suite falling asleep beneath her, falling into a land filled of happiness and an overwhelming amount of positive feelings for once. Your dream world wasn't filled with sadness, regret and pessimism in any way. You finally feel at peace with yourself.

More of an Insight

As you wake up you look down to see the slightly chubby mare who was snoozing quietly on your chest. You slide your hoof down her small figure and smile weakly as she twitches a little and lets out a quiet meow in her sleep, you sneakily slip out from beneath her and she lies there on the couch, cuddling a pillow tightly.

You trot off to another area of the house and stretch each hoof out, putting a headset on as you listened to the soothing voice telling you to be at one with your soul, you let out a deep and slow breath. Yoga was good for you since you seemed to constantly be on edge, stressed or annoyed. You listen to each thing that the voice says, stretching out and relaxing and letting your body stretch.

You didn't know how long you'd been going for but the second you turn around you see the sleepy kitty mare staring at you, a dark purple blush on her face as she begins fumbling around and falls over with a loud squeak. You roll your eyes slowly and sigh a little as you trot over and hold a hoof out, she hugs it and helps herself up with it. "What's with the blush? Never seen a mare do yoga?"

She was stuttering loudly as she shyly said to her. "I-It's not that..I-I have..but.." Her voice trails off and she whispers loudly. "But e-every mare I..I've seen do it have a-a nice buuuuuuutt!!" As the small pony says this your blush appears on your face and you let out a gentle laugh, scruffling her mane very slowly as she squeaks. "Well, thank you for the compliment you little pervert." Midnight blushes deeper as she sits on her hind hooves and shyly bats at your hoof.

You smile softly as she does this, the small mare seemed to be acting all shy now that you'd pointed out her perverted innocence. She on the other hoof rolled onto her back innocently and you just calmly smile, rubbing her fuzzy belly nice and slowly as she lets out a few cute meowing noises from it. You giggle gently and nudge her nose and she squeaks loudly, coming off as very shy and adorable also maybe unintentionally perverted.

A few hours later the two of you had gone to school and were now in a chemistry class right before lunch, the small mare was snuggled up to you while you mix two potions together. The teacher who was called Miss Mareson was examining your potion, she was one of the sweet and nice teachers and definitely one of the younger ones in the school. You mix the potion together with a spoon and the blue and red colours mix to a greenish kind of colour, Miss Mareson smiles brightly and seems to be very proud of you. "Very good job Hazel and Midnight! The two of you have made an instant-growth potion, those are usually very difficult to make if not done right! It's not perfect, but it is definitely sellable!"

Inside you feel all excited and happy, although you would never show that in a public area. Instead you just smile proudly and look all prideful, Midnight makes an excited squeal and hugs your arm tightly. "Hazel!! Now we can use that on some pretty flowers!!" She looks up at you with her innocent look and you softly stroke her mane down which instantly puffs back up. "Maybe later Midnight."

She responds to this by nodding quickly, you take a look around the class to see other ponies with failing potions or black charcoal faces. Chemistry was quite difficult if you didn't know what you were doing, luckily these potions weren't dangerous mixing or else the entire school might have been blown up by now.

Your ears perk up as you hear the bell ring loudly and Midnight flaps her wings excitedly and nuzzles up to you. "I'll go get us some food, uhm...salad, right?" She asks you. You respond with a gentle nod and she zips out of the room quickly making excited noises. As the rest of the class leaves you then pick yourself up and go to trot out as you hear someone say. "Hold up Hazel." It was your chemistry teacher. Miss Mareson trots up to you and smiles softly. "Hazel, it's good to see that you and Midnight pay attention in my chemistry class. It seems you two are the only ones who aren't sitting there and trying to muck around." You smile a little more at hearing the praise and you say to her. "Thank you Miss, it's mainly because I enjoy this kind of work, and it's not too hard to get Midnight working as long as I ask her to." She nods softly and moves out of your way.

You walk out of the class to hear a commotion going on in the cafeteria, you get a little suspicious and trot in. As you trot in you see a large crowd surrounding something happening, you hear a voice of a stallion saying loudly. "SEE?! A freak! Not a she not a he?! What is it??" You grit your teeth together and move closer to the crowd to see what was happening, thankfully for your hight you could easily see. In the center of the circle was a teary Midnight being humiliated by one of the school bullies, she was on her back and had was trying to hide herself. "Well?! What are you? Guy or girl? Neither! You're a monster! Your mane glows, you're part cat and you have a DICK as well as a CUNT!" You shove a few ponies out of your way and trot up behind the stallion, towering over him. Your voice was shaking in anger as you quietly say to him. "You leave...her alone..you pathetic pile of scum..." Your hooves shook as you held yourself back from just beating the crap out of him, he turns around with a smug look until he notices who it was. You had one of the most pissed off snarly like faces glaring down at him, he backs up a bit and stutters. "O-Oh l-l-look who it is..i-it's Hazel th-the lesbian..HA!" You raise your hoof threateningly and his face shows complete fear and within seconds he sprints off. You let out a sigh as your anger leaves you quickly, you crouch down a bit and pick up your shaking friend, tears were rolling down her cheeks as you slowly stroke her mane. The crowd slowly backs off and goes back to what they were doing before as if nothing happened and you quickly take her out of the room. Getting her out of the situation as quickly as you could, you take her beneath the stairs and sit her down with you looking at her. "Midnight, what happened?"

She looks up at you all teary eyes as she sniffles a little and rubs her eyes. "H-He made..made fun of me.." You frown a little and say in a stern but concerned tone. "Midnight. Tell me what happened. What he was bullying you about and why he's picking on you." She nodded a little and sniffles again, rubbing her nose. "O-Okay..it started a little bit before I met you..it all began when the year started.."

Midnight was still the exact same in every way. She was trotting through the halls and hummed calmly, trying to find her class. A stallion that she hadn't met before was looking at a map, she darts up to him and nervously say. "U-Uhm hello there mister..can you show me where...C3 is?" He just nods and replies with a 'sure' and points down a hallway to Midnight's right. "Go down there, take the first right, second left and then fourth right and there it is." Midnight nodded quickly as she bows her head politely. "Thank you mister!!" She then darts off in that direction, as she runs off he watches her flank and licks his lips, thinking what a fine rump she had.

Upon arriving to her class she apologized for being late and her teacher told her to forget it but make sure it never happened again. She was sitting there and humming, doing her work like she always did, but not really paying attention. After an hour or so the bell rung for home time and Midnight brought her work up to the front and slides it to her teacher, he nods and motions for her to leave. After she left she was on her way home, skipping down the street happily before the stallion from earlier came up beside her. "Hey there, hold up a sec?" She tilts her head a little and then stops, looking at him. "Yesh?" She asks with her ears flicking. "Hey, uh yeah. You look really nice and such, and erm...you wanna date?" Midnight looks at him confused for a second before cracking up laughing, she laughed for about a full minute before wiping the tears from her eyes. "Hahaha..heh...hehhe..I'm sorry but, I just..Hehehehe.....met you earlier today and I'm sorry but, I'm not really into stallions, but we can be friends if you want!"

While she had been laughing the stallion had frowned slowly and was glaring at the young mare. "It's not funny. Don't laugh at me." She just giggles a little more as she wipes a tear from her eye. "I'm sorry but that was pretty funny, I haven't been asked that before." He had a sudden burst of anger and shoves her, she yelps and falls face forward into a deepish puddle and coughs loudly. He had gotten a look at her rear and was staring at it with a shocked look. "What...the hell..are you?!" She was quiet as a few sparking noises was heard as her mane seemed to have sparks coming off of it occasionally and she looked at him a little afraid. "Wh-What was that f-for..? I just th-thought it was funny.." He moves closer and she backs up a bit before turning around and sprinting away in fear. "You are a MONSTER!!" He yelled after her.

"-..and that's basically how it happened.." Midnight said with a quiet and soft sigh. "He saw I had a dick, learnt I was only into mares..and knows the truth behind my body..." She began softly crying again as she tries to wipe the tears from her eyes. "Hun...just because you're a rare species, a herm. That has a mane that is all glowy and sparky doesn't count for crap. And just because you're part cat and into mares means nothing! It means you're different Midnight. You're a beautiful and kind LOVING mare that cares a whole damn lot about others." You move closely to her and wrap your hooves around her, pulling her face into your chest. "There there..let it all out sweetie...let it aaaaaall out." She lies there against you crying softly as you hear hoofsteps approaching.

You tense up and move closer into the corner, being sort of protective of the small and upset mare. A red unicorn with a rose for a cutie mark pops her head around the corner and looks at Hazel. She clears her throat and asks you directly. "Is..is she okay? I saw what happened.." You stare at her and look down a bit at Midnight who was shaking. "She's a little upset, but, who are you?" She holds her hoof out and says. "The name is Scarlette Rose, Midnights first friend here!" You gently shake her hoof and open your other hoof to reveal the small kitty mare. Scarlette was around the same size as Midnight and she hugs her from behind. "Heeeey Midnight, it's okay sweetie. Scarly is here. No need to cry." She sniffles a bit and suddenly stops crying, she turns around and nuzzles her face into the crimson red mares chest, going quiet. "Wow, she sure likes you." You say calmly and she looks up at you and replies. "Well...I have had to help calm her down a lot, since she can be very emotional. The trick is the make her feel safe, just tell her it's okay, you're here for her and just kiss her forehead, she has no parents. Soooo it sorta makes you seem like one to her, parent her and she becomes quite submissive to you. It's sorta cute." She said smiling brightly.

You nod your head in awe, amazed at how easily she'd been calmed down. "So, do you two have any past relations?" Scarlette blushes weakly and softly says. "Well...yeah, the two of us used to date, she was my first and I was hers...though I got harassed a lot because of it..she didn't like seeing me upset and called it off...I understand why, but I could see the hurt in her eyes, she tried to hide it by setting me up with another, whom I'm with to this day...but, I've caught her all zoned out quite a bit since it happened..she holds too much burdens.." You nod a little and sigh a bit as you stroke down the fluffy mares coat slowly.

"She does seem to take things too roughly at times..and for what? To just get hurt more." Scarlette shakes her head a little and says. "Well no, it's more so you don't take any or much of the hurt, she learnt from her parents. Take care of your friends and family, they're the most important people in your life." You nod in agreement at this as you hear the bell for the end of school, that's the second day in a row you've skipped some of the day. "So, should we take her home?" You ask. "Yeah, she's a little heavy, would it be alright if you carried her?" You nod a little and allow Scarlette to put Midnight on your back, you slowly stand up and begin trotting out as the sleeping mare lies on top of you, all snuggled up tightly. "She lives with me since she has nowhere else to go." Scarlette says as she leads you to her house, it was a nice baby blue colour and had roses and flowers in most areas of the house.

You take in the wonderful and relaxing scent as you walk in behind her, she leads you to the only bedroom in the house and you slowly lay Midnight down on the queen sized bed. Scarlette just smiles softly as the two of you exit the room. "Would you like some tea before you go?" She asks politely and you smile thankfully and respond with. "I am very grateful for the offer but I have to head home quickly before my parents start freaking out." You say with a sigh and slowly roll your eyes. Scarlette nods and gently shakes your hoof before you leave.

"It was a pleasure meeting you Miss Hazel." You shake hers back and respond. "As it was meeting you." After you leave you jog the rest of the way home, sneaking in and avoiding your parents to go into your room. You sit down on your bed before lying down and snuggling up to the pillows. "Hm..weekend tomorrow...that'll be fun.." You whisper sarcastically as what Scarlette had told you about Midnight was on your mind, you yawn a little before shutting your eyes and falling into a soft sleep.
