Comet Brew? The heck she on? Did she forget my name that quickly?

"it's actually Blue Comet," I replied back as kindly as possible. Half of my body turned to face her, knowing this was just the beginning. Her camp issued shirt and shorts revealed more of her figure than her street clothes. She was cute and fuckable, even for being a complete bitch.

"That's nice," She said dismissively. She bent over to get the pamphlet I tossed and placed it back on the table. "Look, you have to do it by how the pamphlet goes, or else you will make something that won't be good enough for Princess Celestia's birds. Our princess needs all the help she can get!" Twilight commanded. Her eyes had insecurity in them, an indication that she had no idea how to deal with me and that was just too perfect because insecurities were always fun to blow up and expose. This girl obviously had a superiority complex over all of us, so I had to bite on her low hanging fruit, which in retrospect did not sound right.

Nope, not at all.

"Why?" I asked while keeping my sharp poker face. Had I smiled, she would have pass me off as a troll and that would kill any chance to challenge her authority.

The greatest challenge you can give to authority is to ask them the why of their actions.

By the time I asked that question, our conversation started to gain an audience. Everyone stopped their tedious mass housing development and looked at the drama that was unfolding, mostly because they wanted to see Little Miss Perfect crack under the pressure for once.

"B-because I said so, how about that?!" Twilight said in a defiant tone normally reserved for children.

This is all too easy.

"Is there a law saying I have to do this?"

Twilight looked a bit taken aback at the questioning of her authority. She looked to the camp counselor, hoping that the old woman would come to her rescue. Instead, the old woman was drowning in the esoteric instructions like everyone else in the activity.

She basically created her own downfall.

"Well, no. But-"

"Thank you!" I screamed as I turned my upper body back to continue the fine art of birdhouse building. I wanted to end it there, because I knew it would not end well if I egged her on. Any further action by me, if everything went to plan, was to be dismissive and answer with "okay, mhm, and meh." I lifted my head up to see that everyone looked on with jaws on the floor, I couldn't believe that that would be the first time anyone ever stood up to her like that. She simply moved on with a frown, and everyone either began to gossip or giggle.

I had the biggest "Eat shit" grin I could muster as I continued to build the house.

I walked into that activity as the new kid.

I walked out with some actual respect from my classmates. Whispered words of encouragement and hi fives were thrown my way, and Twilight stayed out of my way as if I was radioactive, and so did Mistral Serenity to some extent. With Mistral however she was more nervous to approach me out of either shyness or embarrassment, couldn't really tell with that one. Not to mention she still kept staring at my crotch, as if my schlong was about to pop out.

The birdhouses were taken by the elder camp counselor at the end of the activity to store away, We would eventually take the birdhouses and hang them on the trees around the camp for the birds to share the space with us, but that was for another date and time.

Our next activity was to observe the tidal pools, just as the tides began their retreat into the ocean and exposed the tide pools near the jetty.

"Cant wait to see my man meat!" Bubbly said in excitement.

"You don't have to wait much farther, here he comes!" Crimson said. Slate looked annoyed and had me dead square in his sights.

"You in trouble now," Bubbly teased as Slate came up to us. I knew something was up when he gave me a without giving his traditional "good morning."

"Hey, Blue: A word, please."

We walked off the dirt path and near the small cliffs, out of the traffic of my class. The wind was still blowing in from the land and the sun was still making its advance to the center of the sky. everyone else was walking past us to see that Twilight turned to smile at me with a smug grin on her face, believing she had won.

"I heard you and Twilight got into it earlier?" He asked. His straw hat and sun lotion that made him distinguishable were gone, substituted with his tan skin and brown, wavy hair.

"Yes, sir. I wanted nothing to do with her 'master community' and built my own house. She kept pressing the issue so I had to question her power over me."

He wanted to smile, but he knew better. "Look, I'm all for challenging authority and hell, it would be nice to see the 'future leader of our nation' have her right to rule challenged to toughen her up a bit. But, there's a time and a place for that, and right now I would love it If I can endure a summer without a miniature revolution in this class, you dig?"

Wait, what?

"Why-"

"Because I really don't want a headache, boy. Look, I know she can be downright pushy. But I'm here to tell you that it's not that bad. Sure, you don't get as much academic freedom as the rest of the classes because she prefers what the Princess has taught her, and maybe they are probably spinned for a pro-princess viewpoint. But, for the most part we are here to HAVE FUN and learn, not engage in philosophical debate, that's our winter break mini-camp."

I had nothing else to say. I was…. Perplexed by the whole thing. They would rather let her boss people around other than to deal with it directly. Anyone else would of agreed and allowed themselves to be their bitch for the year. This was me after all, and if that was made for the summer, I would at least make it interesting.
