Ponyville High School

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were rushing down the hallway for their first class: Magical Science. It was around 9:00 and they were running beyond late.

"Late! Late! Late, late, late!! We'll never make it in time. Might as well give up gals." Apple Bloom panicked.

"No way! Class starts in two minutes, we can do it!" Scoots shouted, and smiled.

They continued to run down the hall, unaware that running in the halls might be against the school rules.

"Where is this class supposed to be anyway?" Sweetie Belle asked Scoots.

"325 I think. We're almost there." Scootaloo answered. Only about thirty seconds until the bell would ring. 321...322...323...324...325! They rushed inside just moments before the bell rang through the hallowed halls.

"Check it out girls, who are the newbies? And nearly late to their first class on their first day, no less! Ha! Pathetic..." A voice called from across the room, and it was revealed to be a female pony, almost a mare. She had a white coat, a lime green and dark green mane and tail both in a cute little up-do, dark green eyes, and her cutie mark apparently was three colorful stones. One yellow, one blue, and the other lime green. She was a pegasus pony. Sitting beside her were two other female ponies: One had an orange coat, a fire red long and frizzy mane and tail, and yellow eyes. Her cutie mark was a single flame, bathed in several shimmering colors outside, like an aura. She was a unicorn. The other had a bright pink coat, a purple flat mane and tail, and purple eyes. Her cutie mark was a purple, pretty feather. She was also a unicorn.

"Now ladies. Shimmer Stone, Frizzy Fire, Fair Weather. That's enough!" Another voice called out, he must be the teacher. He had a yellow coat, a grey mane that was really curly yet flat, blue eyes, and his cutie mark was a small blue star or sparkle.

"Yes, Mr. Sparkle Shine." The students agreed and returned to their work. "Now class, let's return back to our assignment. *ahem* Can any pony tell me how to combine a gem-finding spell and a shape-shift spell with a rock, and turn it into a jewel using basic level concoction magic. How about you, Miss?" The teacher asked Sweetie Belle.

"Oh, um... My name is Sweetie Belle."

"Well, Sweetie, can you identify the way to use this magic?" The teacher requested.

"I, um... You cast the gem-finding spell on the rock, find a gem, and cast a shape-shift spell on it and place it on the rock still using both spells?" Sweetie Belle questioned. The teacher looked shocked.

"Sweetie Belle, that's correct!" He replied in joy.

"IT IS?!" Scoots and Apple Bloom has surprised looks on their faces.

"It is. Sweetie Belle, you have an amazing future in magic." Sparkle Shine, the teacher, smiled. After about 30 minutes, the class finally ended.

It was time for the next classes: Equestrian Literature in 307 for second period, Lunch time, Equestrian History in 205 for third period, and for the last class, Physical education on the first floor in the school's athletics room.

"I don't know why, but I'm not so sure I like this new boarding school in Ponyville anymore." Sweetie Belle whimpered.

"It's not so bad, we can leave and visit our friends back home on weekends." Apple Bloom replied.

"I guess, but still... And don't you think that those fillies in magical science were a little mean? They're almost as bad as Diamond Tiara." Sweetie asked.

"Aw, come on, lighten up! We don't have to worry about some fillies while we're here. Other then them, this is actually a sweet school!" Scoots grinned. The fillies continued on to their next class for second period, in hopes the day would go better soon on...
