Episode 1

Yun Ikari's eyes simply stared at the grey ceiling. Having completed his (attempted) rest, he sat up and looked around his bedroom. It was small, yet the grey walls were very comforting. After one or two blinks, he slowly got out and opened the curtains of his window. The first thing he saw was the sun. It directed the light into his eyes. However, he did not flinch or cover them. He just looked up, as if he's directly challenging it to a staring contest. This went on for about 10 minutes before he directed his attention somewhere else.

7:30 AM.

He sighed. He was either very early or he could not sleep at all since the alarm did not go off. No point in trying to go back to sleep now. After he disabled the alarm, he went ahead to prepare his day. And what an unexpected day was it going to be.

He was all dressed up and ready to go. Although one could say that he was slightly overdressed.

He wore a green hoodie sweater, black gloves and shoes, blue jeans and a checkered scarf of red and black. If one could see his face properly, they might see the goggles on him.

When he walked downstairs, he saw a man around his 30's cooking breakfast.

"Morning, Yun."

The man turned around and sighed.

"Are you actually wearing that to your first day?"

Yun simply nodded as he sat down at his table to eat his breakfast.

"I know you're a bit paranoid about yourself, but can you at least try to blend in?"

"No can do." Yun replied. "If anyone knows, then they might call me a freak."

"Well, as your guardian, I can only give you advice."

"Thanks, but I think I can try this on my own." was the reply.

His guardian sighed, as he placed a plate of bacon and eggs on the table for Yun.

Yun sat in the car as the wheels kept rolling on the road. He kept looking outside the window as he was about to be on his way to his new school. He had mixed feelings about it since he was enrolled.

On one hand, this could be a chance to start anew. He had never been to a real school before, having been home schooled by his guardian his entire life. He wanted to make friends there and learn a lot of stuff there. Knowledge that allows him to cram in his brain and people to talk to. It felt very exciting to do so.

On the other hand, despite having the desire to make friends, he was afraid of new people. The only person he had spoken to in his entire life was his guardian. He had only gone to the outside world for only once or twice. And those were only on vacation days. Of course he had to wear heavy baggy clothing.

All that and he wasn't sure that he was able to control 'it'.

He had to hide 'it' very carefully since it wasn't very normal to unleash 'it'. No one was able to do something like that and people would consider that abnormal. Having people fear him for that wasn't the top of his list.

He had only hoped that he kept 'them' in check since the last time he used 'them'. It was only a matter of time before someone had found out.

"Yun, are you alright?"

The boy broke out from his thoughts as the voice of his guardian interrupted them.

"Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm fine." he answered in a tired voice.

"You sound very tired. I told you to get some beauty sleep. It's not good for your complexion and health." his guardian said.

"Sorry. It's just that it's all happening fast. Me going to an actual school. Having more than one teacher and learning with new people. It feels...different." Yun explained. "Just thinking about it makes me stay awake."

His guardian sighed. "I understand that. I knew that it would affect you this much." He realized something. "Yun, remember to make sure to keep 'them' under control."

The boy nodded. "I'll be fine."

The car had stopped as they arrived outside the front of the school. There, they saw the name of the school.

'Canterlot High'

"Here you are. Make sure you don't forget anything and pay attention in class." His guardian reminded him.

"I will. Bye, Heiko." He said as he got out of the car, rather hesitantly.

"Oh, and Yun?" The boy looked back as his guardian Heiko.

"Try and make at least a friend. Okay?" Heiko reminded before he drove off. He seemed to noticed Yun's social problems.

Yun sighed as he turned back to the front of the school. Putting his hood on and taking a deep breath underneath his scarf, he began to walk in.

Yun had followed the directory on the school bulletin board. He was lucky to memorize it since he was quite early, allowing him to walk normally. As he walked through the halls, he could see that there were a variety of people with colorful personalities.

Jocks, preps, nerds, artists, slackers, musicians, rebels and many more cliques.

He probably didn't fit the bill for any of them since he's always alone. Meeting new people was quite difficult for him as he never tried to talk to anyone. Even on vacation days, he only stood by his guardian at all times. And when he would be out, Yun would stay in the hotel room and watch TV.

Suddenly, he had bumped into something hard. Or someone. Looking up, he saw a dark brown skinned muscular guy with messy white hair. Looking at him, he didn't look friendly.

"Watch where you're going, loser!" He yelled before shoving Yun out of the way.

Because of his thin body, Yun fell down with his bag dropped. Following him were two other buff guys. One had brown hair that went down is eyes with yellow ochre skin and the other looked the same but with black hair and dark grey skin instead.

"Nice going, Billy." One of them remarked as they laughed at Yun's misfortune. The brunette jock stepped on his bag as they left.

The hooded teen merely frowned and shook his head. He wasn't really quite fond of these kind of people, so he didn't really bother. At least he knew that there weren't many people like Heiko. Still, was there someone nice around here? He sighed softly, as he thought that it wasn't probably. Maybe going to school was a pretty bad idea.

"Are you alright? Do you need a hand?"

Yun looked up to see a hand in front of him. He looked up to see a girl with greyish mulberry skin, violet long hair with straight bangs that mixed with sapphire blue just above her eyes. She had a brilliant rose streak on a part of her bangs. Speaking of her eyes, they were violet.

At this point, Yun did not know how to respond. One part of him was telling him to take up her offer. However after receiving such treatment just now from another person, he was tempted to tell her that he was fine. From there, he was willing to take an internal gamble.

He took her hand as he was helped up. He dusted himself off before looking at her.

"Thank you." Yun said.

"Don't worry. Seriously, those guys really can't back off." She muttered, most likely about the jocks.

The boy simply stood there, scratching his head.

"Oh, how rude of me. I'm Twilight Sparkle." She introduced herself. "You don't look like you're from around here."

"Well, I am new here since I just recently moved." Yun replied. A rather awkward reply, he would say so himself.

"Oh, then welcome to Canterlot High!" Twilight said, finally knowing that he was new here.

Yun smiled behind his scarf. He could definitely trust her. "Thank you. Hey, I was wondering where you could tell me where the admission office? I need to get my class schedule."

"Oh, sure!" she complied. "Just turn left, then go straight and you could see a wooden door."

"Alright. Thanks again." he said.

"No problem. Well, I better get to class. I'll see you again soon." Twilight said before going off.

Yun smiled underneath his scarf as he walked off on his own direction. Now if only there were people like that, then the world would be a better place.

'Admission Office'

The big words were on the front of the door. For 2 minutes, Yun stared at it. Having to face someone you don't know is one level, but to face someone you don't know in charge of something is a huge level on anxiety.

Taking a deep breath, he entered and walked in. It was quite small, but bigger than his bedroom. He saw the secretary focusing on the computer, typing probably important faculty stuff. Just as he was about to say something, she immediately cut him off.

"Principal Celestia will be expecting you in a few minutes. Just take a seat."

She pointed at a row of red cushy seats. Walking towards them, he sat on one of them. They felt really uncomfortable and he was already not fond of them.

While he waited, he swore like it felt like half an hour. His thoughts went to Twilight Sparkle. She seemed like a really nice girl to talk to, yet he felt an aura around her that says 'knowledge is power' or somewhere around the lines like that. And if that's true, then he would classify her as a 'nerd'.

Now to Yun, being a nerd wasn't a bad thing. He thought that a nerd had some sort of interest in knowledge of the world. Whether it was science or history or any other subject, their were willing to learn from something.

Now for flaws, it didn't matter. It always varies on personalities. And that's what made people different. Yet he only had a conversation with Twilight for a minute or so to figure out what kind of person she is. That really did not convey much so that meant he did not know a lot. All he knew was that she was nice.

He would be lucky to see her again.

"Mr. Ikari, Principal Celestia would like to see you now."

The voice of the secretary broke him out of his thoughts as he got up. Proceeding to walk to the door that says 'Principal Celestia' on the front, he gave a few small knocks on it for etiquette.

"Come in." a voice calls from inside.

Yun opened the door and walked inside as he kept it shut behind him.

"Please have a seat." Principal Celestia offered.

He sat down in front of her and got a good look of what she looks like. She had some sort or mixed hair color that contained cerulean, turquoise, cobalt blue and pale heliotrope. Strange to him was that it moved like a long wave. How was that possible? She also had light fuchsiaish gray skin along with her magneta eyes, which made her look quite divine.

"Mr. Ikari, you seemed overdressed for school." She commented with a small grin on her face.

The boy's face was full of embarrassment underneath that scarf.

"I...uh...well..." All the poor kid could ever do was splutter incoherent words. Celestia slowly raised her hand for him to stop.

"Don't worry. Your guardian has already told me about it."

He tensed. Does she know about 'it'?

"For someone who has a quite a lot of allergies, you look a bit healthy."

Yun mentally sighed in relief, as Heiko got his back once more. Then again, who would ever believe about 'that'? Using this cover story, he was able to talk normally.

"Well, I try to be careful not to succumb too much."

"I see." Celestia slid a piece of paper to him on her desk. "This is your class schedule. If you ever lose it, just ask my secretary." Yun nods and takes it.

"Thank you." he said.

"You may go now." she concludes.

Yun nods as he gets out of his seat and leaves the room. Now, he had a cover story to protect the truth about himself.

Finding his classroom was easy since he had the schedule with him around. It only took thirty seconds to find it.

'2-A'

This must be the place, he thought. With a deep breath, he knocked on the door.

Nothing.

Was this the wrong classroom? He checked the schedule. It was. And it sounded as if it was empty. With no way to respond, he stood outside.

Suddenly, the door opened and a female teacher with dark purple hair and light pink skin. He had a closer look to see that she had grayish harlequin eyes.

"Miss Cherilee?" he asked.

"Oh! You must be Yun. Well, come on in!" Cherilee said, smiling at him.

Yun nodded and walked into the classroom, rather hesitantly.

"Class, we have a new student joining us today. His name is Yun Ikari!" She introduced him.

Many students whispered among each other. Some were talking about his name, his clothes and his goggles (he perked up instantly after hearing that). He looked around with a worried expression and saw a familiar mulberry face. Twilight gave a small wave.

"So, Yun! Why don't you tell us about yourself?" Cherilee inquired.

Thanks to his recently acquired cover story, he was ready.

"Hi..." He started. Apparently, speaking with new people almost made him lost for words. "I'm Yun and I'm allergic to everything."

There were several snickers around the room, as the idea of being allergic to everything was farfetched and preposterous to almost everyone. He sighed softly, as he would've expected.

"What a dork."

"He's got weird taste in clothing!"

"He better not get germs on us."

"What's with the goggles?"

The last comment made him tense briefly before Cherilee continued.

"Yun, why don't you take that empty seat next to Sunset Shimmer?"

She pointed a seat next to a girl with light amber skin and vivid crimson hair with yellow stripes. She seemed to give off a cold aura that terrified Yun a bit. Ironic, huh?

With reluctance he slowly made his way to his seat. Before he could make it, he tripped over and landed on the ground. Chin first.

The class started laughing in an instant at the hooded boy's misfortune. He turned to see a leg retract to it's owner. Looking up, he knew who it belonged to.

"Better watch your step, Icky Ikari!" Billy bellowed as he gave a high five to his other jock friends.

Twilight looked very concerned while Cherilee was irritated.

"Billy!" She said loudly. "That's no way to welcome your new classmate!"

Yun quickly raised his hand up as he got up rather clumsily. "It is not his fault, Ms. Cherilee. My shoelaces were untied and I did not see where I was going." Of course it was Billy's doing. But he might as well not start something.

"Are you sure you're alright, Yun?" the teacher asked, genuinely concerned about the new guy.

"As fine as a feather." Yun gave a peace sign to give his indication before going to his seat. Billy had a smug grin on his face. Unbeknownst to everyone else in the class, Twilight and Cherilee gave looks of worry while a certain cerulean-skinned girl shot a glare at Billy.

"Sunset, could you tell Yun what page are we on?" Cherilee asked. The girl merely rolled her eyes.

Just as Yun was about to ask, he saw Sunset Shimmer's intimidating cyan eyes. The poor boy felt a shiver down his spine and turned away, turning to a random page of the textbook and putting his face in front of the book. What he did not notice was Sunset's sigh of disappointment.

The class was already over and the students were leaving for their next class. Just as Yun was about to leave, Cherilee called him to speak to her, to which he complied.

"Yun, if you have any problems, then come and speak to me. I'm you're teacher and I'll be here if you need me."

He nodded and left, thinking that it had to do with the homework he was given.

When he walked out, he saw someone waiting for him.

"Yun!"

Twilight called out as he walked towards her. He also noticed someone with her. Probably her friend. Her friend had light cerulean skin and cerise eyes. What is noticeable is that her hair was a rainbow mix of red, vermilion, gold, green, blue and violet.

"Hello, Twilight." Yun greeted. He looked at her friend. "Who is your friend here?"

"The name's Rainbow Dash!" the friend exclaimed. "The one, the only--"

"Rainbow Crash!"

The trio turned to see Billy and his clique walking in. Rainbow had a glare towards them.

"What do you want, Billy?" She demanded, teeth gritting.

"Just reminding you that I'm gonna beat you to the dust in today's P.E. class."

"Oh, so you're asking me if you want another loss to me?" Rainbow shot back.

Billy snorts. "As if! And you know what's even better?" He got into her face. "It's dodgeball day."

Twilight and Yun gulps while Rainbow deepens her glare. "So what? You're still going down."

"Don't bet on it, 'Crashie'!" the jock merely chortles along with his friends. His eyes suddenly turn to Yun, then back at Rainbow Dash with the same grin plastered on his face. "Still making friends with losers, huh? I'm not surprised."

"Well, we're not really friends since I barely know--" before he could finish, one of Billy's cronies grabs him and slams in on the lockers.

"No one's talkin' to you, loser!" the crony yelled. Yun had immediately shut up.

"Put him down, Hoops!" Twilight demanded. She tried to intervene, but the grey skinned bully grabbed her in a full nelson, but not with full strength. "H-hey! Put me down!"

"You better let them go, Billy." Rainbow growled.

Billy merely shrugged and snapped his fingers for them to stop. Yun and Twilight dropped down.

"Don't wanna be late for dodgeball. Smell you losers later!" Billy cackled as he and his crew left the scene. Rainbow turned to his friends.

"You both alright?" She asked.

"I'm fine. A bit sore, but fine." Twilight answered.

"How do you put up with that guy?" Yun asked in a rather exasperated tone. Rainbow simply grinned.

"By beating him as usual."

Yun tilted his head, confused. He turned to Twilight.

"Rainbow Dash and Billy Dumbbell were both rivals (or arch-enemies) since their kindergarten days." Twilight explained.

"I wouldn't put it like that, Twilight." Rainbow interjected as they began walking to P.E. class together. "The moron couldn't get a single victory from me."

"Well, that sounds like an accomplishment. Having such a streak." The hooded teen complimented.

"Not really. My real goal is to beat any of The Wondercolts."

"Who?"

"What?!" Rainbow gasped, as if something shocking had happened. "Dude, they're the best sports team in this school! How could you not know them?"

Again, Yun looked at Twilight.

"The Wondercolts won many state championships, sports meets and tournament for many semesters."

"Ohhhh..." Yun finally said.

They had continued the entire trip as Rainbow Dash began to talk about how awesome The Wondercolts were until they both arrived in front of the changing rooms.

"Well, we better get changed. We'll see you at the hall, Yun." Twilight said as she and Rainbow went in the girls' side.

Yun did not go into the boys' changing room since he did not have a P.E. kit. Going to the sports hall, he saw a teacher wearing a track suit. The teacher had noticed him and marched towards Yun.

"You! Why aren't you in your sports kit now?"

The boy winced at his loud voice. "Well I forgot to bring it, sir."

The teacher seemed to be in thought before as he looked at his clipboard before looking back at the boy. "Ikari, right?"

The boy merely nodded.

"Since this is your first day, I'll let you off. Just sit by the sidelines."

Yun sighed in relief once more as he went and sat by the side of the court.

Rainbow Dash was right. In several rounds, her team beat Billy's team with the score of 5-2 in dodgeball, scoring another personal victory for herself. Yun was glad that he did not have a sports kit for the time being. Dodgeball just looked so brutal!

It was lunch time and Yun had walked into the cafeteria. While most of the students got food from the cafeteria, Yun brought a packed lunch from home (courtesy of Heiko). The real problem for him was where to find a table.

He looked around and tried to search for one. They were either taken or reserved by other students. A few even told him to "buzz off".

Finally, he found himself a table. It was by one of the windows, which he enjoyed the view of. No one did not ask to sit next to him. Although he was disappointed, he did not mind as he could eat in peace.

Yun opened his lunchbox to see what was in there.

Grilled salmon with rice and teriyaki sauce.

He was salivating albeit quietly due to his scarf. Just as he was about to eat, someone called him out.

"Yun!"

The boy looked up to see Twlight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash walking towards him.

"We were looking for you!" Rainbow said. "And you picked a really good spot."

"Sorry." Yun said.

"What're you apologizing for? It's not like you did anything bad."

"Rainbow's right." Twilight interjected. "You've done nothing wrong so far."

Yun didn't say anything as he was about to eat.

"Hi there!" A pink blur jumped out of nowhere, almost making Yun jump off his seat. "I'm Pinkie Pie! What's you're name?"

"Pinkie, what did I tell you about jumping out of nowhere?" a girl with an elegant tone groaned.

"Now Rarity, Pinkie's just bein' Pinkie." another girl with a southern accent said.

"Er...well, I don't mind." he could've sworn he had heard a soft voice.

Yun looked up to see the newcomers.

The girl called Pinkie Pie had light raspberry skin and cerulean eyes. Her poofy raspberry hair was what matched her energetic personality.

Rarity had light gray skin which rivaled the winter snow and azure eyes with cornflower bluish gray eye shadow. Her indigo hair was styled very nicely, full of curls.

The southern girl had gamboge skin with sap green eyes and light olive hair that was braided. What is noticeable was that she was wearing a stetson.

The last one had light gold skin, giving her a butter complexion. Her hair was light rose that was really long. However, it only showed one half of her cyan eyes as the other was merely covered. She also had a magnetaish gray eyeshadow.

"Girls, this is Yun Ikari." Twilight introduced.

"Hello." Yun waved.

"Hi, Yun! I'm Pinkie Pie!" The hyperactive girl introduced herself again. "Oops! I already told you! Silly me!"

"Name's Applejack. But AJ's fine as well." the cowgirl greeted casually.

"I-I'm Fluttershy..." the soft spoken girl said, although softly. Luckily, Yun had gotten that so he did not have to ask again.

"And I am Rarity. It is a pleasure to meet you." the posh girl introduced herself.

Yun nodded in acknowledgement as they sat down.

"Yun, I must ask. Where did you get that outfit?" Rarity asked.

"Well, it's old clothing." He answered.

"I do say, it's quite tacky for a teenager." the fashionista remarked. The boy sighed. It may look bad, but it's all he could ever find.

"I'm still looking." Yun said.

"Well, why don't you visit the fashion club sometime? I would be glad to take on a new challenge." Rarity offered.

"Just be careful, Yun. She tends to get carried away." Rainbow whispered, although she didn't make an effort on volume.

"Rainbow Dash, I so do not!" Rarity defended herself.

"You had to get me to wear your goofy tight clothing! Especially with the wig!" Rainbow shot back. Pinkie and Applejack snickered at her.

"Well, excuse me if I needed to make my French Revolution outfit collection look stylish enough." Rarity remarked.

"Rarity, I couldn't accept your offer." Yun interrupted. "You must be awfully busy with your club activities."

"Oh, but darling. I insist! I intent on showing the world the true meaning of beauty, elegance and grace!" she declared.

"Rainbow does have a point." Twilight whispered in Yun's ear, this time softly.

Just as Yun was about to eat, a sudden force slammed his face into his food. Billy and his cronies laughed at his misfortune as they passed by.

"Why I oughta--" Applejack had to hold back Rainbow Dash.

"Simmer down, RD." the cowgirl said.

"But you're letting that jerk get away with it!" Rainbow growled.

"Do you really want to get detention, Rainbow?" Twilight reminded her friend.

While Applejack, Pinkie and Twilight were trying to calm Rainbow down, Rarity and Fluttershy had their attention focused on Yun as he raised his head up, teriyaki sauce and rice all over him.

"Goodness, dear! Are you alright?" Rarity asked.

"I'll live." Yun answered, then glared at Billy and his goons. "But they're not getting off that easily."

Suddenly, he felt a light tap on his shoulder. Yun turned to see Fluttershy with a napkin.

"H-here..." she offered, shyly turning away from him.

The boy smiled and took it to wipe the mess off. "Thanks."

Fluttershy could only blush in embarrassment.

"I say, that boy really needs to be taught a lesson." Rarity remarked.

Yun looked around the cafeteria and saw an unsuspecting boy talking to his friends, leaving his food out in the open.

Suddenly, a tray of food had flew into Billy's back. The angry jock got up and looked around.

"Okay, who threw that?!" He demanded out loud. No one had bothered to answer.

Some unfortunate kid was giggling like a madman, having caught the attention of the bully. With that, Billy took his plate and threw it at the guy. Luckily, the target dodged and accidentally hit someone behind him

The food fight had begun.

Flying food was thrown all over, drinks were splash and gelatin wrapped all over faces like mystery meat. It was a complete war zone out there!

Twilight Sparkle and her friends were hiding under their table, trying to prevent themselves from getting caught in the crossfire.

"Ew! I can't afford to get my outfit dirty!" Rarity wailed.

Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Pinkie Pie were simply reloading ammunition as they got up and tossed it at a random target before going back down for more ammo.

"I'm going commando!" Pinkie announced.

"No, Pinkie! Don't do it! That's suicide!" Rainbow protested.

But it was too late, as she jumped out from the table to deliver blasts from her milk carton pistols.

Twilight looked around, something or someone missing.

"Girls, where is Yun?"

In the meantime, the hooded teen had snuck by the walls with his bag and lunchbox in his hand. With everyone else targeting each other, he knew it was safe as he managed to slip through the door. Unbeknownst to him, a certain amber girl had noticed his escape.

Yun had ran away from the cafeteria door, finding himself by the men's bathroom. He sat by the locker room and looked at his lunchbox.

"And it looked so good..." he said before giving a sad sigh. Well, at least he could eat the grilled salmon.

"That was quite a spectacle you caused."

Yun turned to see a familiar classmate.

"Sunset Shimmer?"

"Of course, you dolt. Who else would it be?" she replied.

"Can I help you with something?" Yun asked.

"Cut the crap, Yun. I know what you did." Sunset said with an accusatory tone.

"I-I don't know what you're talking about!" Yun replied, feeling tense.

"Don't give me that! It was you who started the food fight, wanting to get back at Billy for that." Sunset continued the offense.

"Well, anyone could've done it!" Yun shot back.

"But they didn't since they were afraid of him. He bullied you so much that you couldn't take it anymore, am I right? You just had to do something to him, didn't you?" Sunset continued.

Yun was silent for a few seconds. After that, he sped off.

"Hey! I'm not finished with you!" Sunset yelled as she chased after him.

Yun had went through every corner, trying to evade her with every turn. However, it seemed that Sunset Shimmer was one step ahead of him.

This did not last long as Sunset had slipped on a wet floor in one of the corridors and slammed into a locker. A paint bucket was about to tumble off the lockers. Sunset looked up and shut her eyes, knowing that it was about to fall.

...

...

...

Nothing.

She opened her eyes and to her shock, the paint bucket was floating. She looked around and saw Yun, his hand out in front. That's when it clicked.

Yun had moved his arm and around, the paint bucket going back on the lockers. His arm became less tense as he walked towards a shocked Sunset Shimmer to offer a hand to her.

Not knowing how to react, she took it and stood up.

The silence was awkward as Sunset stared at Yun, who rubbed his arm. Finally, it was broken.

"That was you who threw that tray, wasn't it?" She asked. She knew that her suspicions were right, but he needed to know from him.

Yun merely nodded.

"Yun..." Sunset began. The boy looked at her.

"Are you...psionic?"
