"Here he is girls, Shining Cobalt."

I'm not that good with introductions, or more so, good with ordinary introductions. I was taught to be respectful to everyone whenever I would do an introduction. However, it may be too formal for a normal outsider in this world...

"Hey Cobalt, Rarity told us a lot about you," A rainbow-haired girl said as she patted his back fiercely.

Wait, what did Rarity tell her friends about me that... she knew about me. I didn't tell her much about myself... I think.

"I would guess she did. However, I didn't tell her much about myself."

"Well, I told them about the schools you attend, how smart you, how much of a charmer you are, and that think out loud. A lot, like just now..."

"Wait, that thought I had before... I said out loud?" Everyone nodded as Cobalt turned around embarrassed, "I really need to find some way to control that..."

"Anyway, allow my friends to introduce yourself to them."

Ok, so I'm assuming the first one would be the girl that slapped my back as hard as she could..., or not even as hard as she could.

"Hey, I'm Rainbow Dash, the most athletic, and coolest gal in the whole school."

That could be a serious overstatement. Although, I wouldn't hold it against her. My sister does the same sometimes... actually, my whole family does that. Even I do that sometimes...

"H-Hi, I'm Fluttershy..."

So we have a shy one here. Hm, judging by her look and what she eats, she must be an animal. That's nice. Perhaps I should show her the animals back home.

"Pinkie Pie's the name, and partying is my game. Wait, did that rhyme? I hope it didbecauseIwanttobesurethat-."

Okokokok, this must be the extremely outgoing girl out of the group. If the school isn't lively, she'll sure as hell make it lively...

"Ok, Pinkie, why don't you let someone else introduce themselves."

"Okie dokie lokie!"

Are those even words?

"My name is Sunset Shimmer, it's nice to meet you Cobalt."

She seems... normal, but I can tell she has something else on her mind. It doesn't look like she's thinking about someone, more like... a recent occurrence has caught her attention. Wait, did she see me use... nah, that can't be the case...

"My name is Shining Cobalt. I just arrived here at CHS, and I hope that I can have great time here. From the look of things, I think that won't be a problem."

"Of course, I've told you many times that this school is different from all those other schools you've attended. However, I would like to know what you meant by you saying that you lived in a secluded live."

"Please don't have me-."

"We would like to know too Cobalt," Sunset stated, causing the others to nod. Cobalt sighed as he took a seat beside Rarity.

"Very well then, I'll explain as long as you keep between us," They all nodded as he began.

-5 years ago-

At this time, I never left my home. You see, I reside far deep in the mountains. The reason was so that we could heighten the strength of our minds. The reason I'm so smart is because I spent my entire life studying.

You see, my family has lived secluded from society for generations. That all changed when my older sister made the choice to view the world outside our home. She left for one day and came back with a smile on her face.

She said that the outside world is so large, and that it is certainly better than our home in the mountains. My mom looked at my sister with disdain. My mom told us rumors about the outside world, and that we were in the mountains because of the rotten people in this outside world. However, my sister didn't listen to what she said, and decided to leave the mountain to live out here.

Soon realizing that is was finally my time to leave the mountains, I tried my best to impose this choice to my mother, and she finally gave in. For 5 years, I was sent from multiple schools for that one reason I told Rarity.

"Mom, what am I suppose to do. I'm just... to smart for all these schools...," I was back home after the most recent school I attended sent me back home. I was back home, just laying down on our training ground.

"Don't worry son, I think I have the perfect place for you."

"You said that about the previous school. How can this one be any different from the others?"

"This school is called Canterlot High. This would be the perfect school that you would want to attend. My friend is the principal of the school, and from what she's told me, she has said that the school is lively. Isn't that what you want in a school?"

"It's pointless if they kick me out in just 1 month..."

"She guaranteed me that would never happen while you're at school? That's if you don't that again..."

"Huh?"

"Oh nothing..."

To this day, I still don't know what she said under her breath. But I can assume. However, I did give in to my mother's request to attend CHS.

-Present day-

"I may have only been here for a few hours, but I already love it here at CHS. However, my main reason for attending schools wasn't to experience the outside world, or attend a lively school... those are just extra. My main reason... is to make friends. Not in any of my schools have I made any friends."

"Really?" They all stared at Cobalt as he leaned back and looked towards the ceiling. He closed his eyes as his hands started to glow white.

I wish I had friends... I just never attended a school long enough to make any. You may think that with how I act, I would make many friends because of my politeness, but that's not the deal here. In fact, I barely remember my time at those schools. Wait, why do I feel my power... oh shit!

Cobalt instantly opened his eyes, causing his hands to stop glowing. He looked at the girls to see their reaction, and they stared at him with shock, "Uh, I gotta go!" Before Cobalt could get up, Sunset stopped him.

"Wait, you were that power I felt earlier. Can you use magic?"

"Well, it's part of the reason I spent nearly my whole life in the mountains for this type of training. You see, my family are full of mystics. You see a mystic is a person who seeks by contemplation and self-surrender to obtain unity with or absorption into the Deity or the absolute, or who believes in the spiritual apprehension of truths that are beyond the intellectual power of us human beings. My mother trained me so that I may gain the mystical powers of a mystic. I was suppose to keep my powers a secret, but I'm just too stubborn to just not use them. It may be a reason as to why I haven't been able to stay at a school."

"Wait, aren't mystics suppose to be good?"

Cobalt thought back on what he learned, "Well, yes and no. Normally, a mystic are naturally good. However, if the power goes to that individuals head, they will be consumed by that power, and lose all self-control. It happened to my father."

"What happened to your father?"

Cobalt held his head down, and sighed, "He was sent to be imprisoned in the underworld 8 years ago. He held more power than any mystic could dream of, and he attempted to imprison the mystic realm."

"There's a realm of mystics?"

"Look, I don't want to explain all of this mystic info. For now, I just want to make friends, and I don't want this information going out. I don't want to be seen as an outcast just because I have mystical powers..."

"Yo, chill Cobalt. Like dude, we have magical powers dude," Rainbow Dash said to reassure him, punching him in the shoulder as she did so.

"Wait, what?"

"Yeah, we all kind of have magical powers. Everyone at this schools knows, and I doubt they would turn heads after seeing you use your magical powers," Sunset said as she looked at everyone as she did so.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course we sure silly!" Pinkie said as she mysteriously appeared behind Cobalt.

"Alright then, well, can all of you help me get friends?"

"That's easy, you already made friends."

"Really? Who?" All the girls started to laugh as Cobalt looked on in confusion, "Wait, where are my friends?"

"Why it's us Cobalt darling," Cobalt looked at Rarity who was looking at him just as his sister would after seeing him act like an idiot. Caring, yet slightly displeased.

I guess that was an idiotic question to ask. These girls... I may have barely known them, however, I feel some sort of attachment to them. I actually made some friends... maybe this won't be as hard as I thought...

A/N: I know I didn't introduce Twilight or Applejack, but I have a reason. My reason for Twilight is because of the timeline. This is taking 3 months after the EG movie, and 3 months before Rainbow Rocks. As for Applejack, I'm introducing her in the next chapter. I hope this clears up any confusion about them not being introduced.
