School of Knock Hards
A Warning and The Dorms
Previous ChapterNext Chapter“Alright, first off; Miss Flutters.” Celestia pulled a sheet out the dark red folder and gave it a once-over, “So you’re interested in veterinary medicine?”
While she was doing this, Spike decided now was as good a time as any to try and make a few more friends. He turned to look at ‘Sunny’ and ‘Twily’. “So...you two applying as well?”
“Hu-wha??” ‘Sunny’ jumped slightly, her moment of confusion showing her mind had been elsewhere at the moment. “Oh! Uh, we’re already registered.” she blushed slightly in embarrassment. “We’d gotten word that a couple of our friends were and came to see them. Since you already know them I guess intros are in order. I’m Amanda Shimmer, but everyone calls me ‘Sunset’.” she gestured to her hair. “For obvious reasons.”
“Victoria Sparkle.” ‘Twily’ took over. “‘Twilight’, for the same reason.” she glanced at her bangs. “I’m guessing you’ve probably already figured we’re similar to Pinkie and Fluttershy.” she promptly took on a thoughtful expression. “Speaking of which, I’ve never seen her so affectionate to someone she’s just met. Usually it’s a fight to just get her to say ‘hello’.”
Spike looked over at the kobold girl. “Well, considering how fast she got behind Pinkie when we first met.” he nonchalantly shook his head. “You’re not that far off.”
Just then there was a knock at the door, and two more girls walked in. The first one had a shoulder-length multicolored head of hair and was dressed in a slightly baggy light blue hoodie with a picture of a dragon wrapped around a lightning bolt on the front, and a pair of almost skin-tight shorts, showing off a pair of long, lightly tanned, and visibly toned legs. The hoodie was unzipped enough to give a glimpse of the ample C-cups nestled in it. Even with the jacket, it wasn’t hard to tell she had a definite athletic build.
The other was without a doubt a country girl, if the farmer’s tan she had was any indication, making the light dusting of freckles on her cheeks stand out along with blonde, mid-back length hair done up in a braided ponytail. Not to mention that she was a good six inches taller than him. She had on a dark brown stetson, boots, denim jeans that seemed to cling to her hips and a flannel shirt noticeably straining against the D-cups she’d been gifted with.
“DAMN!” Spike thought to himself when he saw them, mentally begging his blood to stop heading south.
Celestia spoke up once both were inside. ”One moment, ladies. Just need to finish getting these three registered then we can talk.”
Once the three had finished doing the paperwork, Luna looked over at Sunset and Twilight. ”Could you two show them around and then to their dorms please?” She turned her attention back to Spike. ”And Mr. von Jager. When you get situated, please come back to the office. I believe we have something rather very interesting to discuss.” She finished somewhat coyly.
Spike gulped slightly. Partly because one of the deans looked to be flirting with him; and mainly because said dean’s older sister was still in the room. Thankfully (or not, depending on how you see it) the eye roll and barely noticeable smirk Celestia made took a bit of the edge off. ”I-I’ll see what I can do.” he said, trying-and failing-to hide the nervous tone in his voice.
Luna looked at her sister then Spike and said, ”Oh, don’t worry about Tia, she can look intimidating, but underneath, she’s just a big kitty cat.” She smirked and ignored the resulting squawk of protest, “Now, go and see what GEU can offer you other than learning.” Luna looked straight at a blushing Twilight with those last three words.
After saying their byes to Pinkie and Fluttershy, and once in the hall, Spike couldn’t help himself, “I’m guessing there’s more to what Dean Luna said than just a welcome.”
“Twilight is...well, bookworm would be putting it mildly.” Sunset replied, grinning at her friend. “More like a bibliophile.”
“Sunset!” Twilight whined, “I’m not THAT bad! I just like studying.”
“Twi, you once asked the librarian if we could have a sleepover in the fantasy section. Even other Anubises...Anubi...? Even others think you need to relax a little.”
“Anubis…?” Spike tried to draw what he’d learned about Egyptian mythology in elementary school and could only remember the name was usually put associated with mummies and embalming.
Sunset saw his blanch and quickly spoke up, “Relax. The worst she could do is bop you with a book or spend an hour or three lecturing you on your offense.”
Once Twilight regained control of her resulting blush, she responded with a raspberry, “So, now that that’s out of the way we can get on with the tour. And we better hurry, I want to get to the dorms before we run into a certain succubus.”
Considering what he’d seen so far, hearing the word ‘succubus’ didn’t faze him too much. Although, the way she said it had him glancing around once they’d gotten outside, “Uh, why? Are Succubi bad news around here?”
“Oh, no. The one we’re talking about is named Rarity. She’s one of the nicest Mamono you’ll meet, and one of our best friends.” Twilight replied. “It’s just...when she meets a guy that catches her attention, she can be a little, um...forward in her flirting.”
“And that’s when she’s not attempting to get them to try on new clothes she’s designed” Sunset added, “Usually at the same time. It can be kinda overwhelming for people that’ve just met her.”
“Oh, well, I can see how that could make someone a little uncomfortable.” Spike conceded. Although, he had a feeling in his gut he’d have to be on his toes fairly often here.
"Ok, this says I'm at Dorm Building Two, Room Thirty -Seven." He looked to where Twilight and Sunset had led him, "THESE are dorms??"
The area was occupied by what looked more like an apartment complex; seven large ten-story buildings connected with covered walkways surrounding what could best be described as more of a town square: almost a half acre of area circled with benches and a rather elegant fountain in the center.
"This had to cost a fortune!" He blurted out.
"From what I head, the deans were really-hands on with the construction, even footing the bill for a lot of it. So, that saved them some money." Sunset replied, "Not counting the dorm supervisors, there's eight dorms per floor, each one able to house up to four students. With a rec room in each building."
Spike tallied the numbers, "Over twenty-two hundred people?? It IS an apartment complex!"
The girls giggled at his reaction, "Unfortunately, Sunset and I need to get going; we have a student council meeting to get to." Twilight sais once they were outside the right building, "Catch you later Spike."
"Later." He said, watching their hips swing a little with each step as they left, before mentally adding, Hate seeing them go, but watching them leave is SO worth it.
Luckily there was an elevator in the dorm, so getting to the right floor was a snap. The floor itself was fairly basic; a hallway with stairs/emergency exit, and four doors on each side with elevators at both ends. "And here we are!" He grinned, finding his at the end.
Before he could reach the knob, the door opened, and he was unprepared for who was standing there.
"Thought I heard someone out here!"
"Spike quickly checked the number again to make sure he was at the right one, "Uh, t-this is Thirty-Seven, isn't it?" He asked, trying not to stare at the bare legs of one Vinyl Scratch. She was currently standing in front of him, wearing only a long t-shirt that stopped just past her butt, covering just enough to have him wondering if it was all she had on.
"Yep!" Vinyl spotted the paper, "Heh, small world, Dude!" She grinned and pulled off her shades, revealing a pair of crimson eyes, "Hey, Tavi! Guess who our new roomie is!"
As Vinyl's friend stepped into view, wearing a pair of hip hugging shorts and a snug tank-top, Spike could only stare at the both of them.
I'm rooming with two hot girls? YES! Wait...I'm rooming with two large, humanoid, alien girls?
Outside, Twilight stopped dead, "Sunset, shouldn't we have mentioned to Spike that the dorms are co-ed?"
"Ohhh..." Sunset snapped her fingers, "Knew we forgot something!"
