Like, the-nevermind.Chapter Two: Mommy?!Chapter Three: I'm Callin' CPS!Prologue: Call me Cry"Class, we have a new student. Say 'hi.'" The whole group of immature seven year-olds stared at the new kid, who was grinning like an idiot. I scoffed. "Oh, how delightful. Another imbecile." The teacher started to glare, but it faded into a look that said 'Wait, what?' The new kid came over and sat by me, due to the fact that there were no other seats left. I shot him a look, but he kept up with that stupid grin. "Why are you so cheerful? I just insulted you, nimrod." He looked so confused. Priceless! "So you don't want me to be happy?" I shrugged. "Whatever. What's your name?" I grinned. "Alexandrite Elizabeth Pinkamena Diane Iridescence." He whistled. "That's a mouthful. Can I just call you by a nickname or something?" I contemplated it for a bit, then nodded. "How does Elly sound?" I smiled my first non-snarky, completely GEN-U-INE smile ever. "That's... kinda cute. I like it!" We talked through a lot of class, mostly me helping him with the work he didn't understand, me having it done WEEKS in advance. The teachers used me as an example of the student they wanted the other students to be, after all. He asked me how I was so smart, and I said I had no idea. But I did. My mom was a genius, and she always drilled me to be as smart as her. If this stupid school let us skip grades, I'd have graduated by now! She looked normal in public, but at home, she took off her disguise, looking like her Hylotyl self again. She was slimy, and had fins, three eyes, and a weird blue-ish purple skin tone. It scared me a little, but at least I just inherited her 'ears' and a few vital organs. I gained most of the looks from my Floran father. I love my grey-ish skin and my teeth like knives. I like I was born with no eyes, so I have to put in gummy eyeballs every morning. But most of all, I love my 'hair.' Basically just big, white flower petals. I have no idea who my dad even was, though. Mommy won't tell me. I realized something a while into the conversation. "You know, I never caught your name." He motioned a zipper over his lips. "Fine, just come up with something for me to call you." He giggled. "Call me Cry." Author's Note Ugh! I don't even want to explain why that happened, or why this was randomly short. I tired. Y I do dis? Chapter One: Twilight? Like, the-nevermind.High school. Famous for sucking to high heavens, where relationships usually only last a few months. I had been dreading it ever since I started hearing rumors, but I thought it was fine. The schoolwork was still easy, and the only people who acknowledged my existence were the teachers and a few friends I had gathered over the years. Cry and I were still practically attached at the hip, but we still had the occasional quarrel. For example, which pony was best pony. "It's totally Fluttershy!" He always sided with the timid pegasus. "Dude, Princess Luna is way cooler!" He'd always scoff, and we'd continue our debate until we both decided that Delsa was best pony.* One day, we heard someone crash into something and cry out in pain. "Who's that?" Cry shrugged as I walked off. "Useless imbecile." He laughed, then started following me. I found a girl about our age fallen in the hallway. " Are you alright, miss..." I held my hand out, and she pulled herself up. "Twilight Sparkle. And yes, I'm okay." Cry and I stared at her for a bit. "So trippy..." I agreed with Cry there. We had watched Equestria girls just yesterday. "Are you high?" I burst out in a fit of giggles, then hearty laughter, snorting occasionally. "Are you?" This made me laugh harder. I probably looked like I was dying, I was laughing so hard. He knocked on my head. "Yep, she's high." At this point, half of the school was watching, some of them laughing along, simply because they knew something really funny had to have happened. "Elly, are you in need of medical attention? How many fingers am I holding up?" I laughed for about five more minutes, with the occasional breathing break. Twilight just stood there, clueless as to what was going on. "Did I miss something?" Cry stared at her like she was a whackjob while I regained my composure. "What?" ~~~Le Time Skip Brought to You by Dinosaur Eating Spiders~~~ After a ridiculous amount of questioning, we discovered that this chick either really was Twily, or just a really hardcore brony. We hung out for a few hours, before running out of (legal) stuff to do. "So, what now?" Both Cry and Twily shrugged, completely out of ideas. "Does anyone know how to play 'Parcheesi?'" They gave me weird looks. " I'm guessing that's a 'no,' then?" Author's Note *Delsa is cosplaying as elsa.Don't Deny the Delsa-ness of Delsa Do not question time frame logic! Is random dimension in middle of nowhere. Dis chapter. Shortness. Blerg. Chapter Two: Mommy?!Author's Note This chapter contains abuse. If you're not okay with that, you can skip it. Kthxbai. Chapter Two: Mommy?! When I got home that day, I made sure not to tell my 'parents' about it. They would think I was goin' loony and send me to the psyche ward. So I just passed mom on the way inside, acting like I usually do. She looked like she was making candied pearlpeas. Ew."How was school today?" I thought for a second, considering if I could twist the truth. "Pretty good. There's a new girl." Mom looked semi-interested. "Her name is... what was it?" I thought up a lie, and I thought it up quick. "Tara Strong! That was her name." Mom narrowed her eyes, then slowly walked over. I braced myself. "You know I don't like it when you lie, Alexandrite." She slapped me, and it probably left a hand-print on my face. "Why are you lying to me?" I scoffed. "Because you probably wouldn't believe that her name is Twilight Sparkle." Mom glared harder. "Your step-dad will be home soon. I'll let him deal with you." I let out a tiny 'meep' and ran up to my room. "Pathetic excuse for even a half Floran. Oh, well. At least she isn't trying to eat me." I jumped on my bed and buried my face into a pillow, letting out a puny scream. ~~~Le Time Skip Brought to you by Gir's Time-Travelling Taco~~~ I moped in my room for a bit, then heard a vehicle pulling into the driveway. I eavesdropped on Mom and Jack's conversation. They seemed to be talking about me. I wanted to hide, but I knew that would just make him angry. I was about ready to call child protective services on him, but not quite yet. I knew that Mom would hurt me worse than Jack ever did. Suddenly, I heard footsteps. I huddled in a corner somewhere. My door opened, and Jack came inside. He walked over to me, then started talking with terrible grammar and vocabulary. "You need to stop lying. We are the aldults, so we are betterer than you." I cringed at both mistakes. Remember what Mr. Partlo said. Correct grammar mistakes in your head. He slapped me a few times, then started dragging me by my wrist. "Ow! Stop, please!" I knew he wouldn't. He took me to the room I had nicknamed 'Hell,' and proceeded to strap me down and beat me. "What the Heck?! I lied about a girl's name! Are you people completely wacky?!" That just made him angrier. After what felt like hours, he let me go. I ran out, incredibly shaken up. Mom walked upstairs, announcing that dinner was ready. I ate my food quickly, then ran to my room again. My dreams were plagued with nightmares. Chapter Three: I'm Callin' CPS!Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
