"Ugh, what hit me?"
Wait! Where am I? The last thing I remember was...
Was...
What do I remember? Who the hell even am I?
I look at my arms. They kinda resemble wings, just more human-like. Wait! This is not normal! Am I a bird?!
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!?
I slap myself in the face. I need to calm down, panicking isn't going to solve anything! Okay, I'm near a trash can in the back of a restaurant. Maybe I should stand up.
I get a closer look at myself. First, I'm pretty short - fully noted - my feet are also replaced by talons. Who needs shoes? They're overrated anyway. Second, I'm completely naked. Although, no private parts are visible. At least I have a good breast size. Thank god!
I mean - I'm a freak of nature - but maybe I should go into this restaurant for food. I go onto a sidewalk, hopefully finding an entrance.
Good, there is one. I step inside, noting the strange green gas surrounding loud arguments. Is that singing? I don't understand anything. Suddenly, everyone stops and stares at me. Shit! I really didn't think this through. Running as fast as my talons could go, I made it to the end of the restaurant. Going behind cover, I'm free from the awkward stares.
I let out an almost comfortable sigh. Every conversation seemingly going back to normal, but one caught my eye. These three girls - I suspect of singing - are talking about how much they hate this place? I have no opinion...
What? I did just wake up five minutes ago.
Suddenly, I hear a strange shock wave. I peak around the corner to see a massive rainbow twirl in the sky? Okay, this place is already pretty neat. One of the girls makes a run for outside, the other two following suit. They seem off...
I should stalk them and figure out what the hell is going on. Jumping in a bush, I observe from a few inches away. They start talking about 'Equestrian Magic' and how it doesn't exist here. That does not answer anything. "And we're going to use it to make everyone - in the pathetic little world - adore us!"
Great, magical supervillains. Just what I wanted to deal with...
Fuck me...
Throwing their hoodies in the wind, they sent off to somewhere else. I grab the hoodies off of the pavement, the green one I chose to put on. Now I can hide my features - well - half of them. It's good enough for me.
I should keep chasing after them. Wait! Are they heading for a school? If this is my one chance of stopping those assholes, then I'll just have to tend this school.
I wonder how the principal is going to react to a Eurasian eagle owl girl.
"So, why do you desire to attend my school?" The rainbowed hair principal asked me. Her name is principal Celestia, which is an odd name, but at least she has one. I can't remember anything.
"Well, I guess I should take this hood off. Promise not to be scared."
"There is nothing to fear."
I muttered a quick okay, revealing my owl features to my - possible - principal. "Oh, I see. That's interesting, but I can't say this entirely strange."
"Wow, you're taking this a lot better than I thought you would. Can't say I'm mad about it."
Principal shifted nervously in her desk chair. How am I supposed to tell her I have amnesia? I rub my temples for a bit, but I quickly stop. I can't say having feather fingers is not strange, but what can you do?
"Do you think you can answer my first question? Miss...?"
"I don't have a name. Well, I don't remember it. I think I have amnesia, but I'm not quite sure."
"You have amnesia?" Celestia probably thinks there are more surprises from me. 'Sides the whole - waking up a few hours ago - thing. I'm good with surprises. I've already had my fair share.
"Yeah, I've only been awake for a few hours. From what I recall, that is." I sheepishly rub my back for that one. Jeez, I'm a walking shitshow.
"Do you wish to have a new name?" She asked. I need a name to get registered into the school, so this isn't a shocker. A new name? Hmmm... Oh! How about Scarlett!
"I can go by Scarlett."
"Well, Miss Scarlett. I may have a great proposal for you."
"Hi, are you the girls I'm supposed to show around?"
I look up from the - painfully obvious - evil bitches to find a cute girl with strange red & yellow hair. I don't know if it's noticeable for an owl girl to have a blush, but I'm covering my face anyway. I stop halfway through to hit myself - mentally - to at least greet the cutie. Goddamit! I've been attending this school for five seconds and I already have a crush!
GAH!
Whatever. I walk with the group, listening to the formally greeted - Sunset Shimmer - showing us all of the locations. I should make quick mental notes of the places. Apparently, there's a huge musical competition going on. Maybe I could join a band (preferably Sunset's if she's in one). Each of the girls - excluding Sunset - says something stupid, so I make my move. I reached out my hand.
"I think you're forgetting about someone, Sunset. You sorta missed me."
"Oh! Sorry! I didn't notice you." Sunset apologetically hand shook me, which I tried my damned hardest to cover my blush. I'm doing a shit job of doing that, though.
"No, prob. I'm Scarlett, nice to meet you."
The attention was shifted over to - what I'm calling them - the Sirens. The blue haired on started babbling on about mind controlling the student body with singing, but was quickly cut off by their leader. They all started arguing, but it all ended with their leader calling them idiots.
Sunset just blankly stared at them.
"I already don't like you three," I said, managing to get the last word.
This is going to be a shitshow. I already know it.
Well, I can't say the Dazzlings aren't weird - that's for sure. But the whole time I felt a strange itch - not the physical kind - but one that felt unnerving. Like something bad was going to happen. Eh, I'm sure I'm just overreacting...
First things first; I've caught wind of everyone staring at me in the halls. I can't blame them, I can't protect my lower half. Not that my genitals are out, they're quite hidden. But my fellow certainly noticed my 'owl-like' appearance. No matter how much I cover my face with my hoodie, I still stick out like a sore thumb. Also, wearing pants sounds uncomfortable in this body. I'll pass...
It doesn't matter how much they stare, I'm just really damn hungry. I'll eat anything re-- Oh, shit! A chicken burrito? Sign me the fuck up! The lunch lady - also known as Granny Smith - plopped that sucker right on my plate, my stomach turning in anticipation. I thanked Granny and spotted Sunset's table from afar, so I'll go talk to her. So far, she's the only friendly face I have right now.
I walked through the crowds, almost dropping my burrito in the process. "That's just it. I can't put my finger on it. They just acted sort of... strange around me. Maybe someone already talked to them. Told them about what I did. So much for making a good first impression." That's Sunset. Why is she so down in the dumps?
"I don't think so. I thought you did a pretty darn good job..." I said while approaching the table. Sunset turned around, somehow meeting my gaze perfectly. I internally panicked, causing me to flush.
"Is that you, Scarlett?" Sunset asked.
"Who else could I be?" I said, pulling on my hoodie strings more. Jeez, have some more confidence. It's not that hard... You'd say that, wouldn't you? I shut up the voice in my head, heading near an empty seat. "Can I sit with you galls?" I asked - my hoodie strings at their limits. I got a varied set of 'yes' and sat down.
Aw, Jeez. How the hell am I supposed to this with my hood being so tight? You know what? Fuck it!
I started wolfing down my burrito, as Sunset's friends started introducing themselves to me. Turns out, they haven't been friends with Sunset for very long. I wonder why...
Rarity started to give me a glance of worry. "Um, Scarlett darling. Why are you eating so fast?"
"I have-"
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
What the?! Is someone singing? Oh, no! It's those Dazzlings again!
They started to dance, entrancing everyone in the cafeteria. Well, except me and the girls - which is fairly strange... Whatever, this is priceless and horrifying to watch. The Sirens started climbing on tables, even touching a few students under the chin. They would be perfect for strippers.
As their song reached their closing, I realized I should stop them. Hell, maybe even 1-Up them...
I practically inhaled the rest of my burrito, telling the girls I'll be right back. As I walked towards the Dazzlings, I could hear background music that wasn't from them. I could use this! I CAN SING!
I could feel my body becoming butter, my throat releasing my thought process. My dance movements becoming silky smooth, never-ending their beauty. My talons tapped on my ground, forming the beat around me. My hood is slipping, eventually falling on my back. I didn't care - I couldn't care! This strange sensation I'm feeling is too good to pass up. I can finally be free! I can spread my wings!
I can finally be free on a beach.
An umbrella beach.
The beat stopped, my throat being free of the throbbing pain. The students were broken free from the magical spell, cheering me on. Some even looked in awe at my owl-like features. I saw the Sirens stomp off somewhere, to which I have no idea. I got the last laugh! Again! In your dumb faces!
Ugh, I need some water. Or milk... Whichever works.
"Woah! That was awesome!" Rainbow came running over to me. The girls quickly swarmed me showering me with praise...
I don't know how I feel about this.
