Canterlot High

"Rarity?" Miss Harshwhinny called.

"Here miss; and I'm sure you won't find me a problem unlike SOME ponies." The white unicorn sneered, flipping her amethyst curls. She glared at Twilight, making the lavender unicorn feel uncomfortable. Rarity faced the front of the class with a smirk on her face.

What's wrong with her? Twilight asked inside her head. AppleJack tapped her hoof against the desk in frustration; she was tired of Rarity acting like she was top dog. Twilight stared at the quill and parchment lying in front of her with discontent. She thought she would make some friends and be spared of the bullying. She looked to her side to see the country mare with a blonde mane pulled back into a ponytail, tied with a scarlet red ribbon.

Huh, Twilight thought to herself.A red ribbon means she kicks, right? Twilight shrugged and smiled with a reassuring feeling. She was glad she had made at least ONE friend. AppleJack raised her ears and looked at Twilight. The feeling was mutual and the freckled earth pony smiled back. A ruler suddenly smashed down on AppleJack's desk with a CRACK. Applejack looked up slowly to find an irritated Miss Harshwhinny.

"Miss Jack, you are here to LEARN not to communicate with fellow classponies!" She screamed. The bell rang and the snooty teacher trotted over to the blackboard.

"Now foals; we shall start with arithmetic!" She announced, emphasising the r in 'arithmetic'. Everypony groaned, except Rarity of course who was just sooooo perfect. Twilight focused on the white unicorn, almost gagging in disgust. She noticed things about the pony sitting across the room that she didn't notice before, like glittery, aqua blue eye shadow and matching globe earrings. Twilight hated Rarity's perfect mane and her prissy face... god she was jealous.
