A girl with huge pink hair pushed back by a blue headband, a black skirt, a blue sweater with a green recycling sign on it, a white collar on her left sleeve that said Cap., yellow skin, and blue eyes; stood nervously in front of students her age wearing the same sweater as her.
"I think that almost everybody is hear so, let's get started." She looked at the clock and sighed, he was late again. "Um...I officially call the Green Team meeting in order."
Hi, I'm Fluttershy and I'm the captain of the green team here at Lunar Academy. Lunar Academy is a boarding school that most people think is for snobby rich kids. The truth is we're all pretty normal here. Sure you have your "I'm too good for public school" kids but, that's not everyone. All you really need to get in is a 3.0 scholarship which pays for half of your tuition.The only reason I'm hear is because my adoptive mother, Lunar, is the headmistress.
The door to the classroom opened and in walked a boy with blue eyes, black leather boots, black pants, a red T-shirt that matched his hair, and a black jacket with a white collar on the left sleeve that said CO.
"Castle you're late, please take a seat." Fluttershy pointed to an empty chair.
"Actually," he leaned agents the wall. "I think I'll stand."
"O-okay." Fluttershy whispered looking down frowning. Everyone gave Castle dirty looks.
I've always been like this, shy, fearful, unable to defend myself, it might have been a side affect of always being sick when I was younger. Everyone tells me that I shouldn't hang around Castle because he's a bad guy. The thing is he's only bad because everyone expects him to be. I remember when I first met Castle.

Ms. Cherilee walked in and hushed the noise in the classroom. By her side was a little boy with red hair and blue eyes that matched his shirt. His skin was white as snow and he looked angry.
"Class I want to introduce you to Castle Cross-"
"I don't want an introduction." The boy cut her off, his voice was stern and hurtful.
Ms. Cherilee looked at him in confusion. "I'm sorry, what?"
"I if I wanted people to know about me I would tell them my self."
"Oh, we'll okay Castle." It was silent for a moment then she cleared her throat. "Um, why don't you have a seat next to Fluttershy. Fluttershy raise your hand."
The girl in the back of the class with the soft yellow skin, pink hair that covered one of her blue eyes, braces, in the blue tank top and black skirt raised her hand shakily. On one side of her was a girl dressed in the same uniform with rainbow hair. So Castle sat in the empty chair on the other side of her. At the end of class students came up to him and asked a lot of questions.
"Where are you from?"
"What do your parents do?"
"Where do you live?"
"Wanna be my lab partner?"
Castle stood up and yelled, "Enough!" The room grew quite and he started to head for the door. "I'm eating lunch elsewhere."
He walked out the classroom when Fluttershy was coming in. They bumped each other and she was going to fall of the floor but Castle caught her. They locked eyes and people started to stare and whisper.
He let her go, "watch where you're going next time."
He left and the rainbow haired girl who was standing next to Fluttershy yelled at him. "There isn't gonna be a next time pal! You should at least apologize because you were the one who bumped into her in the first place." She turned to her friend. "Don't worry Fluttershy when I get my hands on him."
Fluttershy put a hand on her shoulder. "Let it go Rainbow, I'm fine really." She gave her a smile then looked at the place where Castle once stood.
From that day on Castle was labeled as a bad boy, but no one knows why he acted that way. What really happened the day before. No one knows except him, the people who where there, and me. I wouldn't have known if it weren't for that bump. That's when I saw something in his eyes that made me go after him.
*****
"Castle wait!" Fluttershy ran after him on the way home.
"Stop following me." Castle took off around the corner.
Fluttershy followed him until she saw where he was going. They stopped at a burnt down house.
Fluttershy's eyes grew with fear. "I-is this where you live?"
"Yesturday...I lit a match and it went up in flams. They're dead, they're all dead and it's because of me."
"Castle don't say that! It's not your fault it was an accident."
"They're gone and all I got is a burnt house and some damned asthma!"
What was I to do? He had no place to go so I asked Luna to take him in.

"See you tomorrow and don't be out passed curfew." Fluttershy dismissed the Green Team students and closed the door. She turned around and the only one in the room with her was Castle who was packing his stuff. "Are you ready to go?"
"Does it look like I'm ready to go?" He said angrily.
"Um...n-no."
"Then I'm not ready to go!"
Fluttershy winced and moved back. "Just checking."
Castle looked at her and sighed. "I-I'm sorry, Fluttershy. Today's not a good day."
She looked at him with more concern and less fear in her eyes. "I know." Today was the anniversary of most of his families death.
"Don't worry about it. It doesn't concern you." He tossed his bag over his shoulder and proceeded to walk out.
"I can't help if you don't let me in."
He put a hand on her head and rustled her hair. "You worry too much."
Fluttershy frowned at him. "It's my job to worry. You're my friend and I care about you."
To her surprise Castle pulled her into a hug from behind. "Then you care too much. It's not your job to worry. I'll be fine."
He gave her a squeeze and looked down. He noticed that her neck was completely exposed. His eyes glowed red and fangs came down from his teeth. He leaned in closer, but Fluttershy spoke.
"You're hugging too tight." She said barley breathing.
He broke free from his trance and let her go. "Let's get to the gates before the fan-girls do."
As captain and co-captain of the Green Team they not only keep the school clean and the animals healthy, they also enforce the school discipline rules and keep the fan-girls away from the night class. I don't know why we have to act as there bodyguards. Castle says it's because the fan-girls will miss curfew if we don't watch them. I tried to believe him, but something's telling me that isn't the whole truth.
When they reached the Lunar dorms it was too late. The day class students were crowding the front gate.
"Um excuse me, can everyone please move to the side." Fluttershy said, but no one listened.
"Move!" Castle shouted and everyone looked back at him. His face was scary which caused everyone to part down the middle.
He took one side and Fluttershy took the other, holding the students back. The gates opened at the night class walked out. The girls wore white top and black skirt while the guys wore all white. Fluttershy glanced at all the students who walked by. A girl with dark blue hair and a pink streak in it, Twilight Sparkle. A girl with skins white as Castle's with curly purple hair, Rarity. A girl with bubble gum hair, Pinkie Pie. Everyone went crazy when she walked by.
"Hello Sun dorm students! Candy Pie has to get to class right now, but she's glad that you all came to see her!"
Candy Pie was Pinkie Pie's user name online. She was a very popular blogger and everyone including Fluttershy waits for her next post. Then a guy with grey skin and dark grey hair with a blue streak in it came out.
He flashed his gold eyes at Fluttershy and smiled. "Hey."
She blushed, "h-hi, Thunderlane."
The crowed behind her gave her dirty looks. On the other side Thunderlane looked at Castle. "Cross."
"Towers." They glanced at each other then Thunderlane continued to walk.
Like Castle, I've known Thunderlane since forever.

Fluttershy awoke from slumber, vision blurry. When it cleared there was a women with blue hair and matching eyes and skin. There was a boy with Gary hair and gold eyes.
"Fluttershy, are you okay Fluttershy?" The women asked.
"I'm fine, thank you, but who are you?"
"I'm Luna and this is Thunderlane. He found you lost in the woods."
"The woods? But it's the middle of winter. Why was I there..." A pain shot throw her head as she tried to remember what had happened.
"It's best not to think about it," Thunderlane said. "Just try and get some rest."
Everyday after that night Thunderlane came to see me. Since I was in the cold for so long I became sick and my body became weaker. I had to be home schooled for the rest of the winter. Headmistress Luna adopted me since I had no memory of my parents. I never got a chance to say thank you to him, so instead I gave him all my love and affection. At first I was doing it to say thank you for being there, but now I'm doing it because I love him. Not only for what he did, but for how much he cares for me even when I don't care much for myself.

Fluttershy smiled to her self and fell over. She was knocked out of her day dream by Castle.
"Hey, Fluttershy! Dreamy boy's gone already so you can stop staring."
"I-I wasn't starting, that much."
"Well it sure seemed like it to me and everyone else. You would have had a mod of angry girls on your hands if I hadn't stopped them and sent everyone back to the dorms." Fluttershy blushed and tucked a loose hair behind her ear. "Come on it's getting late. Rainbow Dash and the headmistress would kill me if I don't get you back to your dorm."
Castle, has also been there for me. This time I'll get to say thank you. She nodded and smiled at him.
"What?"
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"F-for, uh, sending that mob away. I would have been toast if you didn't save me." She walked ahead of him with her head down. She whispered, "and for being there."
She thought it was to herself but Castle heard everything. After he sent her back to her dorm he whispered, "no, thank you., Fluttershy."
Walking away he saw Thunderlane standing in front of him. He looked up with now red eyes. "It's anniversary time again, Castle Cross."
