Strange Things Go On At Canterlot High (Cancelled)
1) Madness
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIn the school of Canterlot High, a girl named Sunset Shimmer sat by a statue in the front courtyard deep in thought.
"Hey Sunset!" Pinkie Pie appeared beside her and caused Sunset to jump.
"Pinkie! What have I told you about popping out of nowhere like that?"
"To not do it?" Pinkie received a nod in response. "Okie dokie lokie. So, whatcha thinkin about?" Pinkie asked as she sat down beside her friend.
"Oh just some stuff, like all the relationships that have been starting in school." Sunset replied as she looked up to the sky.
"There is a lot of them isn't there?"'
Sunset smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I'm glad that people are finding their perfect someone, but something about it feels too...perfect. Like, there isn't any major conflict other than the occasional magic incident or whatever." Sunset sighed and scratched her head. "It gets a bit boring, even with Treble Mix doing his random antics and spending time with our friends, it just seems that things are too peaceful."
Pinkie looked at Sunset confused before realising what she was trying to say. "Well, would you rather things be absolutely chaotic all the time instead of it being peaceful?"
Sunset chuckled. "I guess not. Just me letting my thoughts go places." Well, Unkown to Sunset, things were about to get a little more...is interesting the right term to use here? Because it's just gonna get insane from here on in.

Meanwhile
On a train headed for Canterlot City a boy with long green hair sat in a booth with a woman. He wore a green scarf that covered his mouth, his eyes were also green and his skin was peach. He wore a green hoodie with green jeans and sneakers. He was currently looking at the woman in front of him with a slightly angry expression.
"Are you mad?" The woman asked. She had long green hair with holes along the ends, her dark grey skin making her hair and green emerald eyes seem like neon colours. For some reason she was wearing what appeared to be a cross between day to day attire and a French maid costume. "You're mad aren't you?"
The boy remained silent.
"Is this because I stopped and changed?"
Again she was met with silence.
"Look I wanna look my best and I've been wearing the same outfit for a year now."
More silence.
"Are you mad?"
"I'm not mad! I just don't understand your outfit! I just don't!" He finally replied.
"I get the feeling you're upset."
"No! No! I'm not upset! I'm not!" He yelled. "This country is upset! With absurd prices! Five dollars for a meal at McDonald's?! I need more neat in my diet!" The woman just stared at him. "I look around and I see just stupid! People are complaining about religion! No one cares! Umpa-lumpas are murdering themselves!" As he said that an short orange skinned person had jumped from a bridge and hit the window by their booth, only slightly damaging the glass. "Ok...was not expecting that today..."
"Look son, I know you're angry for having to leave our home, but trust me, we will be getting a lot more out of this city than in that backwater town. Just remember what I told you to do if you meet a girl."
"Cap it before you tap it?"
"No the other thing." She said with a wave of her hand.
"Use their love as a tool?"
"Bingo. Just remember that Roden and you'll do fine in the world." She grinned at her son.
"Yeah I've been meaning to talk to you about that, how in the flying fuck did you ever come to the conclusion that you needed to use people as tools just to get far in life? And don't give me bullshit about my dad I know it was a one night stand gone wrong." He asked her in a hostile tone.
"Just something my mother taught me, and it's gotten me far in life, including being able to have you." She said with a smirk as she pulled his scarf up a bit as it was dropping down slightly. "It wasn't a one night stand gone wrong, I wanted a child, I just had no time for a relationship."
"Yeah yeah, keep trying to butter me up Chrysalis, but you might wanna save that butter for some popcorn." Roden said as he reclined back in his seat.
"You still insist on calling me by my name on this train ride?" She asked with a smile and raised brow.
"I don't want people knowing I'm the spawn of someone dressed as a prostitute, fuck you very much." He finished and closed his eyes, his arms behind his head and his feet on the table in front of him.
...
Principal Celestia sat in her office looking over the papers for new students that wished to join the school. She smiled as she read some of the names, but froze in horror at two separate files. One read 'Roden Godswell' while the other read 'Sapphire Phoenix.'
Celestia took in a deep breath as she kept her cool. "So it begins." She knew of these two and their families. She was not looking forward to having BOTH of them around the school causing havoc, but hopefully the students that she could trust would be able to keep them on the right path.
There was no telling what would happen if those two crossed paths, she could only hope that they didn't cause too much damage, both mentally and physically. One of their parents was a manipulative man eater while the other was a man who crafted crazy weapons for a research company that somehow always got away with whatever they did.
The next few weeks there was going to be a lot of cursing, violence, immaturity...and whiskey, that was the only way that Celestia could handle the situation, with a bottle of whiskey.
