Names Please

"Thanks again for this. Not everypony does this for me!"

" "Not everypony"?"

Gulp. Crap, why am I so dumb?! Listen Rainbow, always keep these feelings to yourself, don't tell anypony, no pony will give two shits  about it! "U-uh,'n-nevermind. Thanks, but I gotta go" I speed walk to the door.

"Wait! What's your name?"

I stopped and turn to him. I blush, h-he really is handsome... "Rainbow Dash... Yours?"

He smiles and happily replies, "Swift... Swift Daze!"

"Swift Daze" huh? Pretty guy. W-wait- I mean- pretty COOL guy! Yeah! That's what I meant... "Swift, alright.. Well I have to go. Goodbye!" I turn to the door again.

"Goodbye? Aren't we gonna hang out later or something?"

I stop and blush a dark red. M-Me?! Hang out with a cute guy?! Cool guy I mean! Ugh... I'm just over reacting... I turn to him and smiled sweetly. "Sure! Of course! See you later, Daze!"

He smirks, "Heh, see ya!" Then walks away.

I watch him leave and smiled to myself. Maybe this year will be different...

"Oops!"

I bumped into a pony, well, pegasus that I never meant before and also drop her books along with that. Yay... I bend down to help her pick them up, which gave me a better look at her. She's yellow with a long light pink mane and tealish blue eye color.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see you there"

"No it's ok. It was my fault anyways.."

"Uh, what was that again? I couldn't hear you"

"um... it's o-ok...."

I scratch my head in confused. "Um, sorry I still can't hear you, can you repeat that again?" I bring my ear closer to her to hear better.

"Um, it's ok sorry I bumped into you..."

"Well, can I at least know your name?"

"Um... It's... It's... FlutterShy.."

"FlutterShy?" She nods her head and looks down. What's up with this chick? No wonder her name has "Shy" in it

"Well FlutterShy, my name is Rainbow Dash. My new here," I pull out my hoof to shake hooves. "it's nice to meet you-"

"Eep!!!" She hides behind her mane. Well, at least I didn't mispronced her name.

"... Ok then, I'll be on my way. Nice knowing you, FlutterShy, bye!" I walk away, leaving her alone.

*Flush*

I walk to the sink and start washing my hooves. When I finished, I dried my hooves and headed towards the door-

"Hey filly fooler! Over here!" I turn around to see three mares looking my way. One white coated and with a red mane, another has a yellow coat with a brown mane, and the leader, pink coat with a blond mane.

"Haha!! She actually turned around! That's awesome! Hahahah!!" The yellow coat laughed out.

I frown. I guest every day needs a bad part in it... "What do you want?"

The red mane chuckled. "Hehe, she looks funny when she's angry!"

The leader stands up to her two followers. "Now now mares, calm down. It's very rude of you to make fun of some new girl when we don't even know her name, and when she doesn't know ours!" She stares at me with a smirk. "Here, we will begin!"

The yellow one speaked in a proud and cheerful voice. "My name is Party Lie! The loud and annoying one in the group!"

The white one came up next and did the same thing but in a serious tone. "I'm Ellie Light, the smart one.."

"And that leaves me, the leader of this small but powerful group! I'm Grace Fate! Together, we are the most beautiful and popular mares in the whole school!"

I just stare at them. Really? Popular? Them?

"Btw, we are also known as the bullies in the school!" Party lie happily exclaim. She's saying that like it's a good thing..

"Alright mares, let's do what we do best!"

"Alright boss!" The two girls took both of my arms and dragged me to a corner. My eyes widen. I know where this is going. H-huh?!

"I call first!"

"No I want to do it this time!" I look at them like they're insane.

"No, my turn!"

"It's mine!"

"Mines!!!!"

"Correction, *mine"

"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I CARE?!"

"Girls! How about we all go at the same time?" The leader says in a matter-of-fact way.

"Ooooh. Ok!"

*Gulp* No no no no no no no no no NO! Please, it was sure a good day so far, PLEASE DONT RUIN THIS FOR ME!! They start to walk towards me with evil smiles on their faces. No.. No... No... No......... I feel tears start to form on the corners of my eyes.

It's happening again...

First Real Friend

"What a freaking loser, to weak to fight back. Why does the society want you anyway? Am I right girls?"

"Right!" They both say at the same time

"Come on girls! Let's go shopping! I'm getting bored of staring at this ugly ass face." The leader walks away

"Same!" The two mares followed from behind, leaving me all alone...

Well, that happened... I lied down and start to silently cry. With bruises and cuts every where. It hurts to hear ponies say I'm a mistake, loser, or waste of time.. It's basically saying to give up on life.... That's it....

"I'm giving up life..." I walk away from the hallway. I stopped in my tracks as I hear somepony.

"WHAT?!" I jumped a little and turned around. Who I saw compeletely left me in shock.

My jaw dropped. "F-FlutterShy?!" I say, clearly surprised that it was her who yelled. FlutterShy looked like the type of pony would win a contest in being the most shy person in the world. Actually, no, she's so shy, she wouldn't even go to them with passing out. "W-What are you doing here?!"

"Well, I felt kinda bad that I was so rude to you. I just stood there, barely even speaking up. I want to be there for you for now on! Well... If that's ok with you...."

I run over to her and give her the biggest hug I have ever gave to anypony... My first real friend! She looks promising, I'm keeping her! "Oh FlutterShy! You have no idea how happy I am to hear that!!!"

"O-oh, well, um.. Do you want to meet my other friend Pinkie Pie?"

"Of course! Let's go!"

"Now hold on there missy! You have some explaining to do.. Why do you want to give up on life?" Crap. I was really hoping she forgot about that...

"It doesn't matter-"

"What do you mean, "It doesn't matter"?! Of Course It Matters!!!! You're now my friend and friends always comfort one another! Now start talking or I'll use my stare on you, and I really don't want to do that to you!"

"Stare?"

"I'll explain later, just TELL ME"

"AH! O-OK OK!," she starts to cool down. "Alright well... I'm just gonna go straight to the point... In all of the schools I've went to, I always got bullied.. Don't ask me why, I don't know either.. It just happens, and I that's also the reason why I'm here. It's because of bullying.. It's like every year I switch schools, and now because of those girls, I'm probably gonna move again.. There's no point in moving schools anyway, it's always ending up with getting bullied. I guess I'm starting to get sick and tired of them calling me ugly, horrible, a mistake, and all negative things about me that I've just had enough. It's every where I go, EVERY WHERE... There's nothing I could do about it.."

FlutterShy smiles, "I see, I think I know what you're talking about. You've been going through pain your whole life haven't you?"

"Whole life? I-I wouldn't say whole life, I mean, it's mostly school life I guess-"

"There's more to it right?," I looked at her, shocked. "It's not only schools right? It's something in your home..." I didn't say anything, I let her continue. "If I could guess what the problem is, I would say it's about your parents... Right?"

"...how..." She looks up at me. "How did you-"

"Know? Well, let's just say, I went through the same thing you went through. My parents didn't care about me. They barely talk to me. Other ponies heard about this and decided that I need to be given up for adoption. So they did it, but I was still in the same school I was in. However, it changed a lot ever since that day. Kids make fun of me for being, in their words, "parent-less". So to them, I was a homeless person, and they were the rich. Most would laugh at me and call me names, while other were my true friends and decided that they should stay with me until I get parents who will take good care. Eventually, I do, and I must say, they are the most wonderful ponies in the whole world. So what I'm trying to say is that you can't give up. You just can't, it's not worth it. You need to wait for things to get better." I smiled.

"I think things are getting better now.." She smiles and hugs me.

"That's what I want to see everyday...," She looks up to see my face. "That smile, that beautiful smile. Dashie, don't ever stop smiling..."

My first real friend. My first kind friend. My first best friend... Thank you...

It's Happening Again...

It's happening again...

"HAHAHA!"

"What a loser"

"Freak!"

It's happening again.....

"Please, just leave me alone!"

"Oh~ so that's how she sounds like! Weird..."

"Omg, I know right! It's worst than I thought!"

"It's so horrible like, super horrible~"

It's happening.... Again....

"Go kill yourself!"

"You shouldn't be allowed in this world.."

"You're a mistake!"

And the thing is... It's true... Why am I even here if my life is actually telling me to just give up and die... I get pushed to the ground.

"What a freaking loser, to weak to fight back. Why does the society want you anyway? Am I right girls?"

"Right!" They both say at the same time

"Come on girls! Let's go shopping! I'm getting bored of staring at this ugly ass face." The leader walks away

"Same!" The two mares followed from behind, leaving me all alone...

Well, that happened... I lied down and start to silently cry. It hurts to hear ponies say I'm a mistake, loser, or waste of time.. It's basically saying to give up on life.... That's it....

"I'm giving up life..." I walk away from the hallway. Little did I know, someone was listening to me...

Helper

"Let's see...Whats next period..."

Hello, I'm Rainbow Dash. New student in Canterlot High, and just in the first day, like every other school, I got bullied. I never really understood why they would pick on me... What's wrong with me that bothers everyone in the world?! Anyway, I'm 15 years old, have only my mother and brother... Let's see, what else? Oh! How can I forget? My dog! The cutest thing in the world, Scooby! A poodle! I know it's kinda childish to name a dog after a kids show, but every time when I call him over, it reminds me of my greatest childhood memories!

I look around to see if anyone would help me go to ELA, they all just look away from me. I don't get it, I'm a new student that almost everyone knows, but not even one helps me out! That's complete bull-

"Hello?"

I quickly turn to my right side. A colt... A purple coated, white mane/tail, ocean blue eyes, colt....I-I've never talked to one before..

"You're new here right?"

"Y-yeah... Why do you ask?"

"Well, first off, you need someone to help you out at least... Didn't a teacher show you where you have to go?"

"W-well," gulp. "I-I know some of the places I need to go to, but they're so many, I-I can't remember all of them.."

"Well that's why I'm here," He pulls his hoof up, waiting for me to grab it. "Come on, let me show you" He smiles like an angel! I gotta admit, he's pretty cute..

I start to blush bright red. "O-ok, t-thanks!" I grab his hoof.

"Alright, so do you have?"

"ELA"

"Ok, let's go!"
