Ch.1 School dayz

The local Schoolhouse was barely in sight as Crystal Night was racing towards it. After having to deal with waking up late and a terrible commute to school, Crystal was relieved to see the school and her best friend, Seasalt were waiting for her. Sea salt grinned as she saw her friend once again getting to school late, much to the annoyance of all their teachers. Crystal Night skidded to a stop right outside the Southwest Detrot schoolhouse.

"I...*pant*...made it!...*pant*....please tell me I made it?" Crystal Night panted and caught her breath.

"Just barely. Hey! Do you have that paper Mrs.Skies forced us to write last week?" The pegasus asked slightly giggling.

Crystal had to think and try to remember where their writing assignment was. As she remembered she quickly snatched the black saddlebags over her leathery bat wings and off her back and dug into them to search for the papers. She eventually, after a bit of digging found the papers.

"Here Sea!" Crystal said as she hoofed her the paper with her name on it.

"Thanks a bunch Crys! Now my hide's safe!" Seasalt replied gratefully as she slipped the essay into her own saddlebags.

"Yeah...because it would be so terrible if you didn't get the essay in on time...I mean seriously! Since when did you suddenly give a flying feather about turning in homework on time?" Crystal Night asked in a sarcastic tone.

Her only response was a snort and a gentle shove as Seasalt ran inside to get out of the heat of the (still hot as tartarus) early October morning. Crystal chased after her as the two of them took to flying through the halls to get to their class.

The rest of the school day went on as usual then the final bell for the week sounded as the two hundred or so students spilled out of the schoolhouse. After beating the rush of adolescent hype that is high-school (at least for the next two days) the girls went over to Mad Mac's Cafe and Bake Shop, their "unofficial, official hangout". There they met with two of their other friends, Silver blade (another batpony and Crystal's coltfriend) and Log roller (an earthpony).

"Hey Silver. Hey Log!" Seasalt yelled as she trotted up to her friends.

"Hey 'Seapony!' How was your day at 'prison'?" Log roller joked as he nearly crushed her in a hug.

Noticing her friend would literally be crushed under the earthpony's weight, Crystal gently tapped him on his shoulder.

"Log! You're gonna crush her! Ease up please.?" She asked the massive colt.

Log finally got the message and let go. As Seasalt was catching her breath and making sure nothing was broken in her, Crystal Night happily trotted over to her coltfriend and nuzzled his side. Silver blade returned the affection as the four of them entered the café.
