Chapter 2 New School,Friends, and Enemies
As Twilight and I walked through the halls of Canterlot High I saw Twilight looking around at the other students like she was studying them. I had to admit that even though she was from another world she looked pretty attractive to me. but then I began to think about all the things my mother said to me over years and how every girl I meet treated me like a total freak. Even though my aunt says to not let people like them bring you down. How can I believe that when I have been told differently all my life.
"I hope this girl doesn't find out about my disability" I though.
" Hey Kyle you okay" Twilight said.
I then snapped out of my thoughts and said " Oh yeah I'm fine Twilight".
" I really appreciate you helping me out "
"Like I said no problem I enjoy helping others out and to tell you the truth your the first girl who hasn't....." I said
"oh crap I can't say anymore or she will find out!" I thought
" Who hasn't treated you like what?" Twilight said
" Oh um it's nothing" I said nervously
" Okay but If you ever want to talk i'm here" Twilight said.
I began to think that maybe this girl wouldn't care if I had a disablilty or not. So I decided to ask her something that would assure me that she is a caring person who wouldn't judge me for who I am.
" Say Twilight there is something I want to ask you but I'm not sure it is something you would like" I said in a sad tone.
" What is it?" Twilight asked.
"Are we um..........friends."
I then stood still looking at the ground thinking that scenario would turn out the same way it has through out my whole life the people who I would ask this question would just say " no way you loser would I be friends with a anti-social freak like you". then they would beat the shit out of me,spit on me, and walk away laughing at me with me tears pouring out of my eyes with bruises and cuts and everyone either walking away or just laughing at me. So Prepared myself for the worst but nothing could have prepared me for what she said next.
" Of course we're friends why wouldn't we be" Twilight said happily .
When she said that I looked at her like in shock and began to think " She really wants to be my friend?"
" You..... really want to be you're friend"I said weakly.
"Why wouldn't we be friends after the way you helped me." Twilight said
" Well it's just that nobody has ever wanted to be my friend before." I said in a sad tone.
" Why would anypony not want to be friends with you you're a really great guy." Twilight said.
" Well because you see people like me who choose to be different are treated like they are total freaks." I said.
" Why would anypony do such cruel thing to really nice guys like yourself" Twilight said in a comforting tone.
"It's just the way I have been treated all my life and also people saying I'm a bad guy and a freak" I said in a sad tone.
" Well just so you know we are friends and if you were a bad guy then why did you offer to help me and why did you help me walk the way you did; you're a good guy to me Kyle. " Twilight said with a comforting tone.
"Really" I said.
" Of course" she replied.
I then gave Twilight a huge embrace and said " Thank you Twilight you have no idea how much that means to me". I said while fighting back the tears.
" Oh um its nothing Kyle" She said while blushing.
I then realized what I was doing and let her go. When I looked at her I saw a huge blush like before and with a confused but happy expression on her face.
" Oh sorry about that I got a little carried away" I said in a nervous tone.
" Oh um it's alright, friendship is a very powerful thing to have" she said still blushing and in a shaky tone.
Then I realized that after what she just said that I had just made my first friend. And it felt good to finally have someone who sees me as a friend instead of an anti-social freak. I some how knew that his girl from another world would definitely make going to this school not so bad after all. I noticed that she said anypony instead of anybody which was probably apart of the fact that she was from another world. I then decided to help her adapt to our language.
" I agree, oh and by the way there's something I wanted to ask you?" I said.
" Whats that?" she asked.
"Why do you keep saying anypony instead of saying anybody?" I asked.
"Oh um well you see um it's kind of a thing me and my friends say where I'm from" Twilight said nervously.
"Oh well I think it's quiet a unique thing to say in a common conversation. But since you're new you may want to start saying anybody instead of anypony until you get used to this school. " I said.
"Oh okay right I'll try to start saying things like that from now on" Twilight said.
"Good for you now what say we continue to the principals office to get our schedules" I said.
" Oh uh alright sounds good to me" she said.
I then helped her latch her arm onto mine and then helped her walk to the principals office and I had to admit it felt good escorting a girl. it felt like I was doing a good deed and it felt even better that I was escorting a new friend especially a friend from another world. I began to wonder when I should confront her about it and I was worried I would drive her away by asking her about it. Then I decided that I should ask her about it when she gets more comfortable around me. while we were walking down the hallway I heard some people arguing and decided to investigate.
" Hey twilight do you hear that?" I said
" Yeah I do and it doesn't sound good" Twilight said in serious tone.
" Lets check it out" I said
We both looked around the corner and saw two girls one of them backed into a corner while another was intimidating her. One of the girls had red and yellow hair ,with a black leather jacket over a red-violet shirt with a shimmering sun design on it, an orange skirt, and black go-go boots. the other girl who was backed into a corner had long light pink hair while. She was wearing a white tank top, a light green skirt that had white and pink butterfly symbols on it, pink knee socks, and light green go-go boots. In her pink hair, she had one side held up by a butterfly shaped hair-clip. I wasn't sure if there was going to be trouble so I decided to listen to what they were saying.
"Oh um I'm sorry I just found it and I though I Should give it to her. I didn't know that you had dropped it " The pink haired girl said.
" Well I did! and I was about to get before you swooped in and ruined everything! You shouldn't pick up things that don't belong to you" The red and yellowed hair girl said.
"It... doesn't really belong to you, either" the pink haired girl said quietly.
" Excuse Me!?!" the red and yellow haired girls said angrily as she slammed her hand into the locker next to her.
"N-n-nothing..." the pink haired girl said a she sank to the floor completely scared.
" That's what I though it's as good as mine and you know it you really are pathetic it's no wonder your best friends are all stray animals" the red and yellow haired girl said.
When I first heard the way Red and Yellow haired girl talk to that pink haired girl I was really furious at her for picking on someone who is shy and timid and I could tell that twilight was also getting furious at what she was saying to that girl and I could even hear spike growling at her. The way she was intimidating her was just like the way my mom and the bullies I used to live with treated me. That was when I decided I had heard enough!
" HEY WHY WON'T YOU JUST BACK OFF AND LEAVE HER ALONE!" I said in an angry tone.
The red and yellow haired looked behind her and saw me. I wasn't going to lie this girl scares me but I wasn't going to put up with queen she bee of a bully like her.
"oh really and who are you supposed to be" The red and yellow haired girl said.
I then got in front of the pink haired girl and said "someone who is going to make sure you leave this girl alone"
" How dare you do you even know who I am!" she said in a angry tone.
" am I supposed to know" I said in a mocking tone.
" Oh a tough guy well I know how to make tough guys like you break" She said as she was walking up to me.
" How dare you speak to them that way!" Twilight said.
I look at Twilight like it was a sight I had never seen before no one has ever stood up for they would just walk away and not even help me at all and just leave me to be beaten. I then realized that this girl really mean't what she said when she wanted to be my friend.
"Wow I guess she really is a friend" I Though.
" What Did you say?" the red and yellow haired girl said as she turned around.
" I said- how dare you speak to them that way" Twilight said walking up to sunset
I then saw the red and yellow haired girl and twilight stare angrily at each other the the red and yellow haired looked back at and then smiled wickedly at me and then smiled Twilight.
"You two must be new here." The Red and yellow haired girl said as she to her finger and messed with Twilight's chin.
"I can speak to anyone to anyway I want." She said in a bullying tone.
She then looked at other students intimidatingly as the other students shook in fear she even got a guy to lock himself in a locker to avoid her. I was glad that girl was gone I was getting fed up with her behavior. I then turned around and kneeled down and looked at the pink haired girl to make sure she was okay.
" Hey are you okay." I said in a comforting tone.
The Pink haired girl then looked at me in awe as she stood up with a blush on her face and said " Oh um I'm... um thank you i'm fine thanks helping me out back there I um really appreciate what you did for me back there".
" hey don't mention it." I said.
"Hey Kyle is she okay." Twilight said running up to me.
" Don't worry about it Twilight I think she's fine" I said
" I can't believe you two did that." the pink haired girl said.
"Well I couldn't just stand there." Twilight said
" and neither could I" I said.
" Well, it's just that nobody ever stands up to Sunset Shimmer." The pink haired girl said.
"Sunset Shimmer!?" Twilight said in shock
" So that's her name." I thought.
" You heard of her?" The pink haired girl said.
" Sort of...." Twilight said.
" I don't think I have ever seen you two around here before. Did you two just transfer to Canterlot High from another school?"
I knew that twilight was from another world and I knew that I had to act fast so that nobody would get suspicious.
"um...."
" YES we are, were both new here and were both sticking with each other to help find our way around the school since we're both new and all" I said while winking at Twilight who had both a cute and confused expression on her face.
" Yeah Kyle's right we're both new here. Anyway my name is Twilight" Twilight said.
" And my name is Kyle what's your's" I asked.
I saw the girl look down at the ground and I could tell both from experience and from what just happened with Sunset Shimmer that this girl was really shy. I then knew just how to approach her.
" I'm.... Fluttershy" The Pink haired girl said quietly.
" Fluttershy huh That's a very cute name." I said.
"Wait I didn't catch that. Kyle do you know what she said her name was." Twilight asked.
" Yeah she said her name was Fluttershy" I said.
" Wait Fluttershy but how is that even...." Twilight said.
"Oh my goodness who's this sweet guy?" Fluttershy said in a sweet tone.
Before Twilight could say more, I saw Fluttershy look at Spike then she totally lost her shyness and rushed straight towards him, almost making Twilight trip.
" I guess it's not hard to tell that this girl loves animals" I thought.
That's Spike! my uh... dog!." Twilight said.
Fluttershy then grabbed Spike by cheeks and said "Oh he's so cute!"
I then saw Fluttershy grab her backpack and picked out some dog treats and put out her hand to Spike.
" Go on, eat up, little pup!" Fluttershy said.
Spike then decided to take a bite out of treat and tasted it after a few seconds he then ate the whole treat in one bite
"Oh, wouldn't you just give anything to know what they're really thinking." Fluttershy said sweetly.
" Well judging from what I just saw when Twilight and Spike came through the statue I have a feeling that at least I'm going to more likely hear him talk than hear what he is thinking." I thought.
" He usually just tells me." Twilight said.
When she said that was when my theory started to prove even more correct; that she and Spike were definitely from another world.
"Oh what do you mean?" Fluttershy said.
I then heard Spike bark several times to get Fluttershy's attention.
"Oh,Uh nothing! never mind. Sunset Shimmer said you picked something up; something that belonged to her. It wasn't a crown was it? " Twilight said.
" How did you know?" Fluttershy asked.
" Uh lucky guess; do you still have it?" Twilight asked.
" Umm umm" Fluttershy said as she shook her head no .
" But do you know what happened to it"
"Umm hmm this morning, I was passing out flyers for the animal shelter like I do every Wednesday "
Then Fluttershy started explaining how she found this crown and how it came out of nowhere. I had no idea why Twilight was so interested in this crown but it sounded really important to her. I still had no idea why she was in this world in the first place so I began to wonder how this crown was somehow connected to being here in the first place.
" I had no idea how it got there. But I didn't want anything to happen to it, so I decided to give it to Principal Celestia." Fluttershy said while rubbing Spikes head.
"Principal Celestia? She's the ruler here?" Twilight asked.
"You could say that. Technically she and Vice Principal Luna do make the rules." Fluttershy said.
" Where is she now?" Twilight asked.
" I would like to know as well, since Twilight and I need to get our schedules for the semester." I said.
"Oh she's probably in her office" Fluttershy said.
Then Twilight and Spike both ran in different directions while I just stood there in confusion. Then twilight just walked back probably to ask her more specific directions. but the it looked like Fluttershy knew what she was going to ask.
"Third door on your left." Fluttershy said.
"Thank you" Twilight said.
"Yeah Thanks Fluttershy" I said as I walked away
"Oh Wait!" Fluttershy said
Then all three of us turned around wondering what else she wanted to say.
"You're not really supposed to bring pets onto school grounds. Might wanna tuck him into your backpack that's what I do." Fluttershy said.
I then saw Fluttershy turn around and saw three animals pop out of her backpack. One of them was a white bunny the other one was a white cat who also had a blue bow on it's head. The last one was a small red bird. I was starting to see why this girl works for an animal shelter she must really care about animals to go out of her way to help them in their time of need.
" They get so lonely when I'm at school all day" Fluttershy said.
"Oh okay! Thank you!" Twilight said.
Then I heard the bell ring which probably meant that class was about to start soon.
" Oh no I'm late for class!" she said as she scooped up her animals and ran off.
" Well then we better get going if we're gonna wanna get those schedules" I said.
"Oh right schedules sure lets go then I guess" Twilight said as she was looking away from me.
"Hey Twilight are you okay, you sound a little nervous" I said.
" Oh don't worry it's nothing I'm just a little bit rushed for time that's all" Twilight said.
" May I ask why" I asked wanting to know more.
"I'm afraid I cant say I'm sorry" Twilight said while walking away.
" Well okay if you don't want to talk about it that's fine but if you ever want somebody to talk to i'm always free to listen." I said.
"Thanks Kyle I really appreciate that well lets go get that crown.... I mean schedules. " Twilight said.
While we were walking towards the principals office I heard a quiet but familiar voice.
" Please Flash just leave me alone I'm going to be late for class." The voice said.
I then realized that voice was Fluttershy's and it sounded like she was getting bullied again. I couldn't tell if it was Sunset Shimmer or not so I decided to see If she was okay. "Hey Twilight there's something I need to check up on" I said.
"Is everything okay Kyle." Twilight said.
"Oh yeah everything's okay, I just need to check up on something, I'll see you in a bit." I said as I ran off.
"Alright I'l see you later Kyle" She said as she waved at me.
I then ran towards the place where I heard Fluttershy's voice. As I turned the corner I saw that she had her back towards a locker with a guy standing in front her. This guy had blue hair with a white shirt that had a shield and lighting bolt on it, with a black jacket, blue jeans, and black tennis shoes. And judging from his appearance he looked like a nice guy but looks can be deceiving.
" Please Flash I told you I'm not interested in you so please just leave me alone" Fluttershy said.
" Now why should I do that while you've got a nice ass and perfect tits just waiting for me to touch" The blue haired guy said.
" Please you just broke up with Sunset a week ago, why are you hitting on every girl in the school!" Fluttershy said.
" Because the only thing girls like you are good for is sex and you know it. And my goal is to fuck every pretty girl I can find. Sunset was too much of a pain in the ass and just a complete waste of my time and space and that is why I dumped her. But you and your friends are perfect for me to fuck. Oh wait I stand corrected you once had friends and I'm the only boyfriend your ever gonna get in your life so you'd better get used to it!" the blue haired guy said.
" You're wrong I do have friends and you know it." Fluttershy said.
"Oh really if they were you're friends then where are they now" The blue haired guy said.
" Well they're I... um... I don't know" Fluttershy said weakly.
"That's what I thought." The blue haired boy said.
Then the blue haired guy began to lift up Fluttershy's skirt to look at her panties. Which really began to push me over the edge. I just couldn't stand the sight of this guy trying to force this girl into having sex and taking advantage of her shy and kind nature. I wasn't going to stand for this and I was this close to beating the crap out of him.
" Wait stop what are you doing!" Fluttershy said.
" Looking at what you have to offer, now stand still!" The blue haired guy threatened.
"PLEASE SOMEONE... ANYONE... MAKE HIM STOP!" Fluttershy yelled.
" Alright this guy just crossed the line!" I thought.
So ran towards this guy and punched him right in the chest which knocked him straight on his ass. I wanted to teach him a serious lesson in what happens when you try to rape girls, but the safety of Fluttershy was my only concern.
" Hey pal why don't you just back off and get lost" I yelled as I stood in front of him while he was still on the ground. I then turned to Fluttershy to see if she was okay. "Hey Fluttershy are you okay" I asked. Then Fluttershy looked at me with tears in her eyes and said "Kyle is that really you?" Then all of a sudden with tears still in her eyes she ran up to me and gave me a huge embrace. "Thank you " she whispered. I could tell that she was really terrified after what that blue haired brut was about to do to her. And I couldn't blame her, she was almost robbed of her virginity by some guy who obviously doesn't even care about her.
"Hey you jerk, who do you think you are? And what's the big idea hitting me?" the blue haired guy said.
" Keeping you from even touching this girl again and I don't want to see you around her ever again! Now you better leave Fluttershy alone or I'm going to do some real damage!" I said forcefully.
" Oh really... You're not going to stop me from getting with that Fluttershy girl, her friends and any other girl who is like them!" The Blue haired guy said.
" Well who do you think you are? You can't just touch any girl want " I said.
" Wow you must be pretty stupid if you don't know who I am... my name is Flash Sentry and I'm the most popular and attractive guy in this whole school and I can get any girl I want" he said.
" Like I said, leave now before I do some real damage." I said.
" Why you little... .." Flash said.
Then Flash got back up on his feet and tried to hit me. But I dodged his punch which resulted in him hitting the locker behind me. He screamed in pain from the impact. Then he tried to throw another punch which I grabbed and twisted which resulted in his left hand being sprained. I then decided to stop because this fight was over.
" Augh! Just who do you think you are, getting in the way of my bedding this girl?" Flash said.
" I already told you someone who is going to make sure you never touch this girl again!" I yelled.
" I wont forget this you loser" Flash said as he ran off shrugging in defeat and nursing his hand.
Then I turned around and looked at Fluttershy, " Are you okay Fluttershy" I said once again. I saw Fluttershy with huge blush on her face which was the same thing that happened with Twilight when I first met her.
"I'm alright now, just a little shaken up. But nobody has ever protected me from Flash before" Fluttershy said.
"What's Flash's deal any way and why was he flirting and touching you like that?" I asked.
"Well you see Flash has a reputation around here of being a rocker and a pervert to any girl he finds that's suitable for him" Fluttershy said.
" I cant believe that they would allow guys like him into this school, or any school for that matter." I said with a angry tone.
Suddenly I realized the time and began to walk away "Oh crap I better get going, Twilight will have a tough time walking if I'm not there to help her like I promised... so I'd better hurry" I said as I was walking off.
" Wait!" Fluttershy yelled.
When I turned around I saw Fluttershy rushing towards me to give me another huge embrace like last time, except without tears in her eyes, but still the same rosy cheeks from blushing like before. I must admit, that made me feel really good.
"I can't thank you enough Kyle, for protecting me from that monster, Flash. That was truly the kindest thing anyone has ever done for me" Fluttershy said softly.
So I returned the hug briefly and as I was letting her go I said " Hey don't worry about it, any decent person would have done the same thing, especially considering how beautiful you are".
"You really think I'm... beautiful?" Fluttershy said still blushing.
"Of course I do. Also, you remind me of a kindness that I rarely see these days " I said
" Well um thank you.... OH goodness I'm late for class I better get going I'll see you around Kyle" Fluttershy said as she ran off.
I turned around and began to walk back to the principals office to meet up with Twilight. Wow, this day has just been one huge roller coaster for me. One minute I'm helping out a girl from another world then I'm saving a girl from being bullied twice and by two different people all in the same day. Regardless, I met some new people, and most important I made a new friend, my first real friend. I guess going to school might not be so bad after all.
