A young colt named Cold Knight, or Chill, as he prefers, is going to a school in Ponyville; much to his dismay.

He always kept to himself, even from his mom. Not matter what anypony did they never could get to him.

Why do you think he wore a dark blue and black cloak?

What ponies didn't know, however, is that he isn't an ordinary pony...No...Far from it...

Chapter 1: A New Student

I looked at myself in the mirror, unsure if I should be excited or not. On one hoof I can possibly make some friends. On the other hoof my face might scare everypony away.

I had green insect eyes and a mouth that almost always frowned, and with my teeth always out, able to see. I always had my dark blue cloak with black spots on, but it wasn't really a cloak. They were my wings. But my face was really the only thing weird about me. My mother always said that it could be a defect from birth, but we never knew.

"Honey! It's time to go to school!" I grab my bags and put on my shades.

"Coming!" I yelled, in my cold, gravely voice. I flew down the stairs. I grab an apple, and put it in my bag.

It was going to be a long day...
--{X}--
I had my shades on so that ponies wouldn't freak out whenever I looked at them in the eye. I also covered my mouth, so they couldn't see my teeth when I frowned.

My mother said that the teacher already knows about my 'specialness' so I don't have to be secretive around her, but that didn't comfort me at all.

We finally made to the school, where there was a small playground, with swings and everything. This would excite most fillies my age, but I prefer to read books on my spare time, rather than be active alongside other fillies.

"Okay, I want to behave yourself when you're in class sweetie." My mom said, as she kiss me forehead.

"Mom, you know me, I always behave myself!"

"Sure, lets go with that." We both chuckled at her sarcasm.

"Bye, mom." And with that, I went of.
--{X}--
Once I reached the classroom everypony was already there, talking to each other, before they looked at me. "Ah! You're finally here!" A pony that had a bright pink mane, and a magenta coat; which I assumed was the teacher.

"Class, this is our new student. He is new to Ponyville, so lets make him feel right at home!"

I look at everypony, who all whisper to each other. My left ear perked, trying to listen in on what they're saying.

"What's with the cloak?"

"Why is he covering his face?"

I of course, enlighten them on there question. "Well, if you must know, this is why i'm covering my face." Everpony stopped once I took of my glasses and black bandanna. Everypony gasped once I showed my face, not to mention accompanied by my voice.

Once again, whispers could be heard all across the room.

"How did he hear me?"

"What in Equestria is that thing?"

"Is he okay?"

"My name is Cold Knight, with a k."

They each share uncertain glaces.

"But you may call me Chill."

"Right class...Are there any questions for the new student?"

Everypony simultaneously raised there hoof, much to Cold's amusement. "Hm...You." He pointed at a yellow earth pony.

"What's wrong with your eyes and mouth."

"Ah. Well, you see, I don't know. The best explanation I could find that it is a possible new birth defect. But I don't know for sure." Cold was use to questions like this, and was even amused by it. It never really bothered him, really. "Anypony else?"

Unsurprisingly, only a couple hoofs were raised. "Hmm..."

"You." He pointed at white pony with a pink and purple mane.

"What's with the cloak?"

"My mother gave it to me on Hearth's Warming Eve. Anypony else?"

Only one hoof was raised that time. A pony with a black coat, bat wings, sharp fangs, and dark blue eyes raised her hoof. Most of the ponies here had a frown on there face, but she was smiling. "Yes?" Cold asked.

"Do you have a cutiemark?" She asked.

"Um...Yes." He turned to his side and pulled his cloak a bit upward, so everyone could see his cutiemark.

It was ice cubes, surrounded by snowflakes. Then he hid it, once again. "Are there anymore questions, class?" The teacher asked.

Everypony shook there heads no. "All right class, take out your text books, we are going to learn about math. Cold Knight, you may sit next to Night Shade, the bat-pony."

Cold laid his stuff next onto the floor, next to his desk, and pulled out his textbook and pencil case with his hooves.

"Now, for those who are new, I am Miss Cheerlie. I'll be your teacher for the school year. As long as you behave yourself, then you'll have a great school year!" Cold rolled his eyes, yet smiled.
--{X}--
"Hey. Hey, wake up."

Night Shade slowly open her eyes. It didn't take her long to figure out what happen.

"Huh? Oh! Oh my gosh! I didn't miss class, did I?"

Cold frowned at her.

"You were asleep through the entire lesson." He said, in his gravely voice.

"Oh no..." They both looked at Miss Cheerile, who was frowning at Night Shade.

"Now, I know that you're nocturnal, but that is no excuse to sleep during class."

"Sorry Miss Cheerlie...I just wanted to rest my eyes..."

Cherrlie giggled. "That's what they all say. Now go along now, we don't want to miss recess."

Cold and Night grabbed there lunch and went out the door.
--{X}--
Apple Bloom was thrown on to the floor.

"Stop! Please!" She begged for mercy.

"Fork over the bits! Or you're in for a world of a beating!"

"I told you I don't have any bits!"

The bully grinned. "Alright boys, show this little mare what we do to ponies who don't pay up!"

"I beg to differ."

They all turned to find Cold Knight, with a certain bat-pony hiding behind him in fear and worry.

"Oh! Looks like we got our selves a hero. Tell me something. What are you going to do about it freak?"

Cold narrowed his bug eyes. "You need to chill."

He took a deep breath. And he blew some sort of wind. But to everyponys surprise, it froze him! Cold extended his hoof and punched him, breaking the ice encasing him into shards as he slammed on the ground.

"Now leave. Before I decide to freeze you permanently."

"L-lets get out of here!" They all began to fly away in panic.

Cold Knight walked over to Apple Bloom, and extended his hooves. "You okay?" He asked.

"Y-yeah...Thanks..." Cold nodded. "Say...How'd ya' do that?"

"Where do you think I got my cutiemark?" And with that...Cold sat down, and began to read his book.

Night Shade sat next to him, to 'eat' her food. She took out a box of juice and bit through it, sucking on the insides of the box. "Watch'a reading?" She asked Cold.

"Its a book called 'A Journey Beyond Sanity'. Its about a pony getting sent to an other world."

She tilted her head. Cold ignored it. But then he realized that he need to go back inside. He got up. "Where are you going?"

He looked at her and frowned. "I'm going inside to eat."

"Why?"

He looked around. "Come with me."
--{X}--
It didn't take long for Night to realize why he had to go inside to eat. Apparently, he is an omnivore.

He was eating cooked fish, some salad, and a soda.

Luckily, Miss Cheerlie had no problem with them eating there or him being an omnivore.

He continued to read his book, not really paying attention to his surroundings.

"I'm an omnivore to..." Night Shade said.

That got his attention. "Really?" He asked.

"Yeah, but I only eat stuff like caterpillars, moths, butterfly, stuff like that."

"Ah."

He continued to read. Until the school bell rang.

RING, RING, RING!
--{x}--
Cold yawned. Finally, school was over and they could all go home.

"H-hey! Wait up!" Cold turned around to see the same pony he had help earlier. "I-I wanted to thank you for helping me like that."

"It was no trouble. I don't stand for bullying."

He turned back around, and walked of.
--{X}--
I laded on my bed and looked out the window. It was a new life. Now that I have to go to school...

It'll only go downhill from here...
