Shadow Rave

"Well, This Day just got a whole load more interesting." Shadow Rave said sitting on his bed

"Whaddya mean?" Billy asked

"Brolly told me to fight him tonight."

"Sweet, you're gonna go, right?"

"I guess so, I doubt I'm gonna win though."

Shadow Rave was in a circle made up of students. They were circling Shadow Rave and Brolly, "You embarrassed me in front of the whole school, Now I'm going to get you back!"

"Let's just get this over with."

Shadow Rave threw a punch, Brolly side stepped and hit Shadow Rave in the face. Blood spurted from Shadow's mouth, he grunted and wiped it away. Shadow Rave threw another punch, this one impacted Brolly. Brolly stepped back, then returned with a punch to Shadow Rave's gut. Shadow gasped and kept away from Brolly to catch his breath. The white pegasus rushed Shadow Rave, grabbed his head and bucked it. Shadow Rave was on the ground within seconds.

Billy, Hoops and Dumb-Bell all watched from the sideline "Aw, fuck!" Billy yelled "Come on Shadow, get up!"

Shadow Rave grunted as Brolly kicked him in the side "Quit being a pushover, fuckhead." Pushover, Shadow Rave didn't know what it was about that word. But it started a fire, a fire that filled him to the brim with energy. It pushed out the pain, he got back up. Shadow Rave walked over to Brolly, grabbed him on the shoulder "Don't call me a push over." He smashed his hoof into Brolly's face. Brolly flipped over as a tooth and blood sprayed from his mouth. His muzzle was broken.

"WHY DID YOU DO THIS? AND IN YOUR FIRST MONTH, TOO!"

The principle was furious.

"Didn't you see what he did?! He embarrassed me in front of the whole school!

"I DON'T CARE!"

When he left, Shadow Rave found that Billy was waiting for him "Dude that fight was so RAD!"

"Yeah, I heard you the first three-hundred times."

"I know... but I can't get over it!"

Shadow Rave was starting to get a headache again, "Please just shut up? I'm going back to the dorm."

"Uh... Okay?"

Its appears Shadow Rave was beginning to get moody.

--- 1 Year Later ---

Shadow Rave watched as the new students flourished into the halls, looking for their lockers, dorms and friends. But there was one student who caught his eye, a gryphon. Not many gryphons went to the flight schools in Equestria, the usually got an education in their homeland to the north. The gryphon seemed to be talking to a mare, Shadow Rave slipped to a corner to eaves drop "So Gilda, what do you think of school?"

"Eh... Its looks like a bunch of lameos."

"Come on! There's probably tons of cool people here!"

"Maybe."

It was hard to tell if Gilda, as the mare called her, was male or female, but Depicting from her voice Gilda was female. Shadow Rave walked in front of them, although they didn't notice him (which was was good seeing as he didn't want to start a conversation). Though Shadow Rave didn't see Gilda giving him a glance and smirking.

--- 1 week later ---

Shadow Rave was walking to his locker after a sleep filled day of math, history and Equestrian language. As he approached his locker he saw a yellow slip of paper sticking out of his locker.

"Huh?" Shadow Rave questioned what it could be in his mind, then he picked it up.

Shadow Rave

Ever since I joined this year I could help but notice you.
You really stood out of the crowd, I knew that in many ways you were a keeper.
I love the way you mane flows when you trot or fly. 
And I have also been told that you are a famous musician. 
I love music! 
I hope that we can be together soon.

Love, Your secret admirer.

"What? So, someone has a crush on me? Holy Shit!"

And at the end of the hallway Gilda was snickering completely unaware how much this prank would affect Shadow Rave.

"Someone has a crush on you?"

Shadow Rave had just shown the note to Billy.

"Yeah, It looks like it might be more than a crush."

The two continued to converse until snickering could be heard outside "What was that?" Shadow Rave asked to the air.

"I don't know, I'll check."

Billy opened their door to reveal a certain gryphon outside close to a laughing fit "Why are you laughing?"

"Hehe, Y-you guys r-really didn't figure it o-out?"

"Figure out what?"

"That note! Its fake!"

Shadow Rave, unfortunately, heard this. "Bollocks! So no one has a crush on me?"

Billy and Gilda were completely oblivious to what Shadow Rave was saying because Billy was trying to deal with the laughing gryphon. The note to Gilda was a simple prank, where as to Shadow Rave it was a sign telling him that, there was still only one who cared for him; Princess Celestia. Depression would soon hit Shadow Rave again.

Shadow Rave pushed Billy and Gilda out of the way "What the hay nerd!"

Billy glared at Gilda, "You really have no clue, do you?"

"About what?"

No more of the conversation could be heard by Shadow Rave. The colt ran out of the the building at sat outside against the wall, letting all of his emotions out of his eyes, Small glistening tears. This continued for ten minutes until somepony tapped him on the shoulder.

"Hey, you alright?

Shadow Rave looked up to see a mare

"Who are you?"

"My names Cloud Chaser, what about you?"

"I'm... I'm *sniff* Shadow Rave."

"Do you want help or something? Because you don't look to good out here."

"No, not really."

"Aww come on!" Cloud Chaser pulled up Shadow Rave "Follow me."

Cloud Chaser led Shadow Rave back into the Dorm building and onto the fifth floor, and stopped behind a door labeled "51"

"This is my dorm, come in."

Cloud Chaser held the door for Shadow Rave, "Thanks."

"Sit on my bed." Cloud Chaser pointed towards a bed on the left side of the dorm. Cloud Chaser opened a fridge

"Do you want something?"

"What do you have?"

"I don't have much, But my roomy, Flitter, has some tea I could heat up...?"

"Sure, that sounds fine."

Shadow did not mention how much he fucking loved tea.

Cloud Chaser Jumped on the bed next to Shadow Rave "So, why were you sad."

"Just a prank somepony pulled on me."

"What was the prank?"

"A fake love letter."

"What's so bad about that?"

Shadow Rave thought, Should I tell her? I mean I just met her, but she does seem trusting.

"Well, I was abused for the first six years of my life, so my parents didn't love me. Eventually I ran away and ended up in Canterlot, where my step mother found me. Then I got signed to DJ for the Blue Wings, I mean, they're good friends, but not people who genuinely care for me. To them, i'm just a DJ.

And then I got sent here."

"Who was your stepmother?"

"... Princess Celestia."

"Really?"

"yeah."

"And you DJ'd for the Blue Wings?"

"Yep, I might do the contract for the Wonderbolts now that they beat the Blue Wings."

"You should do it!"

"Maybe, I don't really know, the tension might be a little... high."

"I guess."

There was a loud screech; the tea kettle was steaming. "Guess the tea is done."

Cloud Chaser got up and poured Shadow Rave a cup of the hot liquid and passed it to Shadow Rave "Thanks *slurp* this is pretty good."

"Thanks."

Shadow Rave sat back and attempted to relax, it worked. Shadow Rave put a small smile on his muzzle. Eventually Shadow Rave sat up. "I should probably go."

"Okay." Cloud Chaser had a hint of disappointment in her voice.

Shadow Rave looked at Cloud Chaser's eyes "thanks again though."

Shadow Rave didn't end up leaving, Cloud Chaser got up and walked to him. She leaned in eyes half open and was met by Shadow Rave's lips.


The moment lasted longer than either of them had intended. When they parted Shadow Rave looked confused, as it was his first kiss "Woah."

Cloud Chaser nuzzled his nose and smiled,

"Seeya tomorrow."
