I walk into the main foyer, and notice three girls standing there.

"Hi!" I say in a friendly tone. "are you the new girls I'm supposed to show around?"

"Yes." the girl with light orange hair and magenta eyes says, stepping out of the shadows with the other 2 girls. "we are."

"Canterlot High is a great school, you're really gonna love it." I say, heading towards the stairs, the three girls now following behind me.

"Yes, we really sense there's something magical about this place." the one withe the orange hair says in a devious tone.

Oh, no! How were they already told about the old me, and they haven't even been here for a whole day yet! I pretend to shrug it off, and begin to show them around the school.

"That's the science lab, the computer lab is in there.." I say, pointing to the classrooms. I then notice the musical show case poster. "We're having a musical showcase this weekend. The whole school is pretty much rallying around it."

The orange-haired girl gasps, and outs her hand up to her chin, with a devious smile on her face. "A musical showcase?"

"I'm sure since you're new, Principal Celestia would let you sign up if you're interested." I suggest.

The one with purple hair speaks up. "We have been known to sing from time to time-"

The blue-haired one interrupts her. "Hellooo, we sing like, all the time! It's how we get people to do what we want."

I look at her questioningly, and the other girls look at her.

"Wha-what did I say?" she says, shrugging.

"What you meant to say was that being in a musical showcase sounds like a great way to meet other students." the orange-haired one said, pointing the girl.

"Oh..yeah. What she said I meant to say. That's what I meant..to say." she says, a nervous smile on her face.

The purple-haired girl scoffs, giving the blue-haired one a dirty look. "And what you would have said if you weren't the worst."

"Oh, yeah? You are!" the blue-haired one says, crossing her arms.

Then the orange-haired one interrupts the two. "You'll have to excuse them...they're idiots."

I then notice the girls' necklaces, and reach out to have a closer look at them. But the orange-haired girl grabs my wrist, and I look up at her, confused. Why is she so defensive over this necklace?

She notices what she did, and lets go of my wrist. "Sorry, these pendants mean an awful lot to us. We'd just hate for anything to happen to them."

They all walk away, except for the blue-haired girl. The purple-haired one grabs her wrist, and pulls her away, and the bell rings for lunch.


I walk up to my lunch table, and sit next to Applejack.

"So, how was the tour?" she asks.

I sigh. "I don't know. I mean, these girls, they were.. there was something off about them."

"Off like this?" Pinkie asks, forming her curly, pink hair into a mustache and beard. "Or off like this?" sake asks again, putting carrots on her teeth to make her look like a walrus.

"Or maybe we should just let her tell us?" Rainbow suggests.

"That's just it. I just can't put my finger on it. They just acted sort of..strange around me." I rest my head on the table "Maybe someone already talked to them, told them about what I did." I sigh. "So much for making a good first impression."

"Uh-huh." Fluttershy adds, getting judgmental looks from the other girls. "Oh..that's probably not it." she looks at the other girls, and sinks into her chair nervously.

Then, the three girls that I toured earlier walk in, and begin to sing.

After they finish singing, everyone is arguing, except for Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie, and myself.

"Oh, they're that kind of off!" Pinkie yelled, the others looking at her.
