1: Beginning of a Mystery
Butterfly was guided by her mother to the schoolhouse, the young filly never knew her father, and her mother never wanted to speak about him. It was the start of her second week of school. She had just what she needed, a baby crow she named Cookie, her lunch, a lunch for Cookie, a bird cage, and her books she needed or today's study. She reached she schoolhouse doors, she waved to her mother, then entered. The sudden adjustment of the light confused her eyes like always, but she managed to find her seat, sitting down, putting Cookie in his cage. Diamond Tiara cast a plane at the red-maned filly. Her black tips seeming to become nothingness in the darkness of the corner. She looked at Cheerilee. "Welcome class, get out your green books and turn to page 41." Cheerilee said, a nearby green-hided unicorn filly with purple hair and glasses quickly able to find the page. Butterfly always wanted a horn, but instead she got wings. The feathers at the tips the same red as her hair. She was called a chicken, as she didn't like flying, but the chickens were she lives are quite brave. It seemed Cookie could tell what the filly was thinking, and made a quiet 'Cawwhh' to her "I know, I know, but the air seems so.. Strange.." She whispered to the crow, then quickly found page 41. "Solve questions 1 to 3 in your Math journals." Cheerilee said, Butterfly getting out the purple journal and flipping it to an empty page, getting a pencil from deep inside her bag and started talking the questions. '40 x 0' the first question asked, Butterfly was the worst at her times tables. '1= 40' she wrote in the math journal. next was '10 x 1' that was quit easy to guess 20. She wrote '2= 20' in her journal, next question was 42 divided by 2. Easy! she wrote '3= 2 1

When she finished she wrote her name and grabbed her journal in her mouth, putting it on Cheerilee's desk. "I'm done." Butterfly then went to her seat, sitting down.
It was reccess, Cookie's cage in front of Butterfly. Soon a pink hoof then it the other way, tipped over, the pink hoof kept kicking the cage, with giggles, a gray hoof joining, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. "STOP!" Butterfly wailed at them, but her protests made them kick harder. Butterfly kept crying at them to stop. "BUTTERCRY, BUTTERCRY, BUTTERCRY!" The two fillies said their everyday tease, then, a colts voice rose up "STOP KICKING THAT CAGE." The colt said, a blue pegasus colt with a navy blue mane coming in. The two fillies kept kicking. "I. SAID. STOP." The pegasus colt said, and Silver Spoon kicked it right at the wall, Cookie hitting the bar of the cage and falling unconscious, Butterfly started crying. "BUTTERCRY, BUTTERCRY, BUTTERCRY, BUTTERCRY!" The fillies teased, closing in on Butterfly. "I AM NOT BUTTERCRY!" Butterfly screamed at them, becoming two time her size, and purple mist that seemed to poison the air came out of her eyes. Her eyes became red. Butterfly was in crazy mode. "I. AM. NOT. BUTTERCRY!" Butterfly screamed, using magic to grab Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon in the air, while the other fillies and colts ran to the corner, watching in horror. "DO YOU HEAR ME?" Butterfly screamed into their faces, some blood coming out of both of their ears. Red magic was what was holding them. Butterfly spun them around a few times, then let go, sending them flying, soon falling out of sight. The only classmates Butterfly knew was Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. Somehow she got the attention of the parents of the classmates, Butterfly's mother going to the filly, putting her hoof on the filly's arm, the purple mist fading rom Butterfly's eyes, and she shrunk bak to normal size, she was a complete mess at his state, her hair all tangled, bags under her eyes, her body weak. A stallion approached mother. "You let your DAUGHTER throw my princess away, where she may get HURT?" The stallion complained to mother, Butterfly running to the cage where the unconscious bird it, grabbing the dented age in her mouth, and approach the stallion, putting it on the ground. Teary-eyed Butterfly screamed. "YOU'RE DAUGHTER ALMOST KILLED POOR LITTLE COOKIE! HE'S ONLY 6 MONTHS OLD! YOU CRUEL BEAST! IF YOU WANT YOUR DAUGHTER, SEE'S EITHER IN LAS PEGASUS, MAYBE EVEN IN MANEHATTAN!" The stallion was too terrified to reply to the filly's words. "OH, YOUR SCARED OF A FILLY NOW? SPEAK. UP." Butterfly said. "Every pony is scared of you." The stallion replied, the blue colt with a nay blue mane coming. "I think that was actually pretty cool, those things needed a lesson." The colt replied. A rainbow-maned mare looking at the colt, when the colt caught her gaze he said "Uhh.... I mean... Thats bad yeah.. Uhmm... Yeah."
