Fluttershy waited eagerly for her students to enter her classroom. Yesterday, she had to miss a day of school. But, it was a real emergency; her bear friend had fallen asleep on top of a rabbit burrow. Although, she knew how stubborn he was. She wasn't going to let him trap her rabbit friends in their own home. At first she tried using his favorite food, Fish. But, he managed to ignore it. She tried reasoning with him; only to have him snore loudly at her. Unfortunately, that left her with only one final option. Her stare! Although she really didn't like using it; she knew being able to do something like that would come in handy. She sighed and continued to wait for her students. Thankfully, she did not have to wait to long.

Her door opened and one by one her students walked in. Each of them greeting her before sitting at their desks. She took notice of the new student Twilight had informed her about. She was happy to see a new face in her class. The bell rang and her class started. She was very excited for today. Because, she had a very special surprise for her students. She could hear them all talking to one another; she looked to her desk and nodded. On the desk stood one of her woodpecker friends; it tweeted happily. Before it rapidly tapped her desk. Not only silencing everyone; but also also causing everyone to look at her.

“Good morning class.” Fluttershy greeted happily.

“Good morning. Professor, Fluttershy.” All of them greeted back.

Fluttershy smiled as she checked to see if everyone was present. When she was done; she looked up at her new student, “I see we have a new student with us today,” She said happily while some of her students groaned a little, “I'm Professor, Fluttershy. What's your name?” She asked.

“Razor edge,” He replied, “Nice to meet you.” He finished his voice sounding as caring as Maud's.

Fluttershy nodded her head happily; before her gaze shifted to all of the class, “Now, I have some very important guests visiting our class today,” She informed causing everyone to look at each other. She smiled happily, “Everyone let me introduce you all to my bird friends.” She finished just as many birds entered her classroom from an open window.

The class were in awe at the number of birds that entered her classroom. Some of them laughed while other hid themselves in fear. Smolder looked at them all in wonder; the only birds she knew of were roc's. Predatory birds that fed on young dragons during the molt. So to see a large number of smaller ones. Including those of different colors. Well it surprised her greatly. Then, with a small whistle the birds descended upon the desks.

A bluejay had landed on Razor's desk; it looked at him and tweeted happily, “You're feathers are blue,” Razor began, “I hate blue.” He finished.

Everyone looked at him with looks of disgust. They could have sworn they saw the bird frowning. It also looked like it was about to shed a tear. Before, it flew off and landed back on Fluttershy's desk. The bird earned itself a few gentle pats on the head. It smiled and flew off to meet another student.

“Yona, no like new student,” Yona whispered to Silverstream, “Don't think he belongs in this school.” She finished.

Silverstream nodded in agreement, “He's so rude,” She commented while another in their class turned towards them, “I still can't believe he wasn't punished for what he did to Gallus on Monday.” She added while Yona nodded.

“What did he do?” Asked their classmate.

As the three whispered amongst themselves; Razor had used his magic to pull out his journal. He set it on his desk and opened to a page with a half drawn sword. As he began to draw he payed little attention to his classmates around him. Some of them were amazed at how detailed his drawings were. While others worried about his odd obsession with swords. Was it healthy for a colt that young to be interested in weapons? Yes, weapons are apart of every creatures in Equestria's history. But, now in their time. It was just odd to them to see somepony with a weapon obsession. Especially, with a single type of weapon.

Another rapid series of taps drew their attention back to Fluttershy. While the birds flew to various perches that were set up behind her desk. The students looked confused as Fluttershy stood in front of the birds. She smiled in excitement as her birds readied themselves.

“Now class,” She began making sure she had everyone's attention. She coughed a little when she saw Razor still drawing in his journal. Her cough caught his attention and stopped drawing, “I am going to show something I taught all of these birds to do,” She explained before looking at the birds, “Ready?” She asked receiving a nod from one of the birds.

When Razor saw her pick up a baton; he knew what she was about to do. Using his magic he opened his saddle bag again. This time he pulled out a pair of ear muffs; which he quickly placed over his ears. Yona could not believe what the colt had done. Not only did he insult one of Fluttershy's birds. But, now he was going to ignore them. Just before they started to sing. With a huff she got out of her desk and made her way to him. Just before Fluttershy waved her baton; Yona had grabbed his ears muffs and pulled them off. Razor gasped before the birds stared to sing.

“No.” Razor groaned as he brought his hooves up to cover his ears.

Yona shook her head in annoyance; before trying to pull his hooves back down, “Listen to their song.” She almost yelled.

“No,” He shouted, “No! No! No!” He started to scream.

Fluttershy quickly got her birds quiet; while the class looked over at the two. A few students screamed in fear. As Razor used his magic to lift Yona up and throw her. A few students scrambled out of their desks. Just before she was sent crashing into them. Yona's friends' quickly got to her side; while Razor brought his hooves back up to his ears. He then started to make a rather annoying groaning sound.

Smolder growled and quickly walked over to Razor. Pushing him down onto his back hard, “What's the matter with you!?” She growled.

“Smolder, calm.” Fluttershy began to say before another student interrupted her.

“Yeah, what's you're problem!?” One of the fillies in her class yelled.

A earth colt stood up, “You could have hurt Yona! What were you thinking?” The colt asked while Razor looked at them in horror, “What are you stupid?” The colt finished.

Fluttershy gasped, “Rough Terrain, we do not.”

“He's not stupid,” Another colt said this one a unicorn. Fluttershy sighed in relief; happy to see somepony defending him, “He's like my cousin, Half baked. He's retarded!” He finished causing Fluttershy's eyes' to go wide in shock.

“Yeah, You're right, he is retarded.” A filly pegasus responded.

Razor looked around hearing all of them yelling at him. Hearing them calling him names. Names he had though he had gotten used to. But, once again he could feel a single tear run down from his face. Smolder had little time to react when she saw Razor shoot to his hooves. Everyone watched as Razor ran out of the classroom. Some of them yelling for him to run. While others were more worried about Yona. When the class calmed down; they were met with the disappointed stare of Fluttershy. It was then all them felt and icy cold wind blow past them. They still felt it as their teacher ran after Razor.

Razor was running as fast as he could through the halls of the school. Tears ran down his face like rivers. He burst through the door and ran out of the school. He didn't know where he was going. He didn't care what he was doing. The only thing he cared about was getting away from all of it. The names, the screams, shouts, everything. He needed to get away from everything. He stopped running when he was in front of the school. He panted loudly as he turned to look back at the school.

“I'm sorry.” He apologized before he started running again. Heading in the direction of his home. A place that was quiet.
