I Dream of Aria
Welcome to CHS
Load Full StoryNext ChapterThe day I arrived at CHS, and saw her, was the day my life changed forever. I saw into her eyes and I saw, a vision. A vision that I was meant to be with her. She became everything to me. That day that I saw Aria Blaze was magical. I'll never forget that day. My name is Arron Canvas, and I am the new student at CHS. This is my story.
It was a sunny afternoon. I had just moved in. I was the youngest child in my family, which was until my older brother died in action while serving overseas in Iraq. I am now the oldest, and the only child. It’s been a lonely 4 years since my brother had pass, but I learned to move on eventually. That's why I came here, to Canterlot High School, my parents thought it would help me make some friends. But I had no idea that this school would open up an entirely new chapter in my life.
"New must be our new student." said Principle Celestia to the student sitting in her office. "I'm glad to make your acquaintance."
"The feeling is Neutral." replied the boy. "My name is Arron, Arron Canvas."
"Well, I'm glad to meet you Arron. I'm sure the two of us can be great friends." replied Principle Celestia. "Let's take a look at your previous records here." Principle Celestia reached into her filing cabinet. She pulled out a file marked with my name on it. "Let's see here. You have a pretty clean record Arron. Straight A's. Perfect attendance. You were Vice President of the Art Club, nice, very nice."
"Thank you."
"I'm sure you had a lot of friends." said Celestia. Arron paused.
I froze. I didn't. I never talked to anyone. When I became Vice President, I was very distant with others. All I did was my artwork. "Actually, Miss, I never really have friends. I was pretty distant with the other members. All they knew about me was, I could draw and paint beautifully." The principle looked at me with a smile.
"Well, then. I guess that means today is a new start for you." she replied. "You get to start over, and make friends for the first time in forever. I was told by your parents, that you're...a bit distant." She looked at me with smile as she stood up and handed me my class schedule. "Anyway, here. I have your scheduled. You like drawing, painting, writing, and acting, right?"
"Yes." I replied.
"Excellent." replied Principle Celestia, "I gave you classes in Creative Writing, Theater Arts, and Art I. I'm sure you can make some friends with some fellow artists and writers there. Won't that be fun?"
I thought about it. My parents did say I need to make friends. And I do like theater arts and creative writing. This really was a chance for me to start a new leaf. I had always been such a distant person ever since my brother's death. But that's ancient history. I'm here in CHS, and I'm ready to start a new chapter. I wonder what kind of friends I'll meet here. I'm interested to find out. "Yeah, I guess." I replied to Principle Celestia.
"You, guess?" she answered.
"Uh, it might be fun?"
"...Um, let's just get you settled." said Principle Celestia as he paged her VP. "Luna?"
"I hear you."
"Send Sunset Shimmer to my office, will you?"
"She's on her way."
"Thank you."
2 minutes went by and then the door opened. A girl game out. She was wearing a leather jacket and a pink blouse underneath. She also had yellow hair with red streaks and wore an orange skirt and black boots. I guess that must've been Sunset Shimmer. "You wanted to see me, Ms. Celestia?" she asked.
"Sunset, glad you're here. This is Arron Canvas, he's our new student." said Principle Celestia.
Sunset smiled and walked up to me. "Nice to meet you." she said, offering to shake hands. I didn't want to appear rude, so I accepted the offering, and we shook hands.
"I want you to show him around the school. Help him get accustomed to CHS. You don't mind do you?"
"Not at all ma'am. I'm happy to help new friends."
Friends? She barely met me and she already thinks of me a friend? Wow, that was heavy. I wonder what new adventures this school will hold for me?
"Follow me, Arron." said Sunset, "I'll show you around the school, and hopefully you can make some friends along the way." So I followed Sunset as she showed me around the school. She started with the classroom areas. The Fresh-men Wing, the Soft-more Wing, The Junior Wing, The Senior Wing, and The Gifted Talents Wing, which was a program for intelligent students, not yet at a High School age. After that, she showed me the gym area. Wasn't much, looked just like a regular gym. As we walked by it, Sunset was asking me about my past.
"So, where did you live before moving here to Canterlot?" she asked.
"Oh, uh, I lived in Manhattan." I replied (not Manehattan, because were in the human world).
"Sounds exciting. I never thought of you as a kid who lived in the big city. What's it like?"
"Loud, and boring." I replied.
"Oh. Sorry to hear that. So, do you have any brothers or sister?"
When Sunset asked me that, my heart sank. I was so emotional, I was afraid to answer. "Well?" she asked me. I began to tear up. Finally I swallowed and answered.
"I'm an only child." I said.
"Oh, okay." she replied. "Parents ever thought of having another kid. Maybe give you a little baby brother or sister?" she continued.
This time, I got emotional. "I had a brother. An older brother." I said grunting my teeth.
Sunset was stunned. "Oh my, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring back a painful memory you had with your siblings."
I calmed down, and wiped the tears from my eyes. "Don't worry. Not your fault. You didn't know I had a brother who passed."
Sunset was shocked. "OH MY! I'M SO SORRY, I DIDN'T..."
"Forget about it. It's fine."
Sunset apologized, but I assured her it was all good. After this little conversation was over, she went back to showing me around. She showed me the lunchroom, the band room, and finally, the football/soccer field. I had fun touring with her. I think I made a new friend in all of this. As she was showing me around the football/soccer field, I saw something that caught my eye. A group of girls were sitting alone on the bleachers. This one girl caught my eye. She wore dark make up, purple pants, a denim jacket under a white t-shirt, and she had darkish purple hair with turquoise streaks. "Hey, Sunset." I asked, "Who are they?"
Sunset turned around. "Who are who?" she asked. I pointed to the girls sitting on the bleachers. Sunset let out a small gasp. "Oh, uh, N-Nobody. Just some school student." she replied nervously.
"Well, can I know the name of the one in purple?" I asked.
Sunset became suspicious. "Why do you want to know her name?" she asked me. I nervously began to sweat.
"Well. I uh..."
Sunset looked at me with a sly look. A look of suspicion. "Listen to me carefully." she said. "Those girls over there, are called, The Dazzlings. The one in purple is Aria Blaze. They are troubled girls. So stay away from them, Okay?" I was confused. Troubled? What did these girls do? I tried asking Sunset, but she denied that I brought up the conversation, and she told to "Stay Away!"
I wondered. Were they that bad? But I wanted to see them for myself. Especially that, Aria character. She looked interesting. I've never seen a girl look so...Rebel, and Goth, but yet...so very, very, beautiful. I had to meet her. I we were walking back inside the school, I kept thinking to myself, would Aria be my friend?
Just then the school bell rang. "Well, I guess this will be the end of our tour." said Sunset, "I can't be late for 3rd Block." She shook my hand, and asked me if I needed anything else. I said no. She said if I needed anything, to look for her. Then we parted ways. I looked at my schedule for 3rd Block. Art. My favorite subject. The room number said, 56, my teacher was someone called, Mrs. Brush. As I walked down the hallway to art class, I just couldn't get that girl out of my head. Who was she, but more or less, who were those other girls. And why are they troubled. What did they do, or better what DO they do that labeled them, troubled teens? I was suspicious of Sunset's words.
"Listen to me. Just stay away from them, okay? Stay Away!"
Well, I'm sorry Sunset, but whoever these girls are, I have to meet them for myself. Especially this Aria girl. Eventually, I found room 56. I walked inside. Everyone there was surprised to see me. I guess it was because they never saw me in school before. The teacher, Mrs. Brush, walked up to me. "Oh, hello. You must be our new student." she said. I replied, yes. "Why don't you take a seat over there." she said. I took a seat next to a student with blonde hair and crossed eyes. I didn't think much of here.
"Hi, I'm Ditzy Doo, she said, "but all my friends call me Derpy."
I smiled and told her my name. She smiled and we shook hands. I was about to ask her something else, but someone else walked into the room before I could. Someone I never thought to see. But I guess, now was my change to meet them…
Author's Note
This story will revolve around the new student at CHS, Arron Canvas, and the relationship he builds with The Dazzlings. Specifically, Aria Blaze. I'm hoping this story makes up for other stories that I've written. Also, I know Aria didn't come out much in this chapter, but she will later on. I just want to, set the theme.
