Chapter 4: Realising Potential

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

At my age, getting out of bed was a huge struggle. I managed to do it, most of the time. I was only a couple of years from being an adult changeling, so being in my teen years technically. We were living in a different house! My father got a promotion to work in Canterlot and he hindered the offer, until he found out that it included a house for us to stay in. Copper changed his mind shortly after and we moved to Canterlot. Who could have thought that changelings could live in Canterlot, without anypony noticing? Not us, that's who!

Shadow officially made it into the royal guard. The Headmare told them about Shadow's actions in the office. She explained how not only did Shadow saved my life, but the Headmare's life as well. She was now working at the rank of a captain in the guard. She was respected by many ponies, including ponies of the higher ranks in the guard. She was a respectable mare.

I changed my form instantly, as I got out of bed, and casually walked over to the bathroom. As I approached the bathroom, I looked at the closed door beside me. My parents bedroom was shut. I opened it and wasn't surprised at what I saw. Nothing! My parents were never here when I was awake in the mornings. They would get off to work early to make a better example of themselves. I closed the door back up with my magic and made sure that the door 'clicked', before heading into the bathroom.

I turned on the tap in the bathroom and sighed. I was a little lonely most of the time. I didn't want to focus on making friends, cause nobody liked me. I didn't want to disappoint them or even lie to them, so I never focused on it. I used some magic to splash some water over my face, before drying my face with a towel. I sighed again, just wishing that I was able to see my parents as often as I used to. I turned off the tap and completely dried myself fully, before moving down the steps to the ground floor.

I walked into the kitchen and sat down. I didn't really need to do anything. I didn't really eat in the morning, even though I should have and I didn't really have anything to hand in at highschool. Most of my time involved looking after myself and the house, while Copper and Shadow worked. I looked at the clock on the wall and sighed, rubbing my hoof through my mane. I had about half an hour to myself before I needed to head off to school, but what to do, I thought. I had an idea to do something… lewd! That idea instantly left my mind as I thought about what I had to do today. No masterbation for me today, I thought, but the idea was still there.

"Maybe later?" I questioned myself. I wasn't quite sure on where, or how I would, but maybe. Once I got back? Maybe. I got up and walked into the living room. There was some money on the shelf, left for me to have my lunch later. I picked it up with my magic and carried it to my saddlebag. I placed it inside one of the pockets and picked up the saddlebag itself.

When the Headmare was helped by us, she kept to her word. She didn't tell a single soul about what we were or how we actually were. In fact, she was a close friend of Shadow's now, occasionally talking to Shadow about some gossip happening in the little town we used to live in. My mother occasionally met up with her and had a fun time with her. The Headmare's name was Mist. She didn't tell us until a couple of days after the event had happened. She had even left as being Headmare of that school and was now working closer to where she lived. Ponyville! So Shadow would sometimes catch the train to Ponyville to meet with Mist. It was a kind of a nice thing for Shadow, being able to speak openly to someone outside the family. She had friends and work colleagues. Copper had friends and work colleagues too, but I didn't.

I struggled to find ponies to talk to. Nopony was into the stuff that I was into and I was scared that if I bonded with someone as a friend, they might find out about what I really was. I pondered that as I sat there. I looked at the clock again and then grabbed the saddlebag and plopped it on my back, before grabbing my keys and making my way to school. I locked the door behind me and sighed, before making my way to Canterlot highschool.

Ponies past me, as I trotted to school. I kept my eyes on the ground as I prepared for another day of learning. I loved it, but found it difficult with all of the ponies around me talking and laughing all the time. It was kind of a big distraction to me. Laughter and just voices in general, messed me up all the time. As I walked into the grounds of Canterlot highschool, I took a look around at all of the ponies around me. It hurt me a little, but that was just something I had to deal with. A couple of ponies looked at me and I immediately looked at the ground, as I trotted across the grounds.

I sat up against a familiar wall, the wall that was next to the library of the school. It was probably the only place that was empty most of the time. I loved that about this place. The fact that it was empty most of the time, meant that it was quiet most of the time. I rested my back against the wall and looked up at the sky. I sighed and closed my eyes.

I could hear the sound of hoofsteps traveling towards me, not away funnily enough. I opened my eyes to look around me and saw a load of mares surrounding me. I thought to myself that this could only be bad. Either these mares had come to make fun of me, or they were in heat and wanted a stallion to rut them silly. I wasn't interested, but wanted them to get away from me, so I talked to them for once.

"Can I help you?" I asked, not expecting about 5 of them around me. They were some of the more popular mares, making my thought of them all being in heat even stronger. They all look at me with a little bit of sadness and worry. One of them spoke, while all of the others moved back.

"Umm… hey! We noticed that you haven't really talked to anypony here so, we wanted to come over and see whether you wanted to have ponies to talk to." She admitted, making me a little surprised. I pondered that and then spoke the truth.

"I haven't really spoken to anypony because I have had a terrible past with making friends, so I just stopped trying, due to getting bullied and mistreated by anypony else that I tried to make friends with." I told them blatantly, trying to make them feel little to no sympathy for me. They looked at each other and all wore different expressions.

"Do we look like we could fucking bully you? That's your past! Some ponies can be complete assholes, but… we try not to be!" The same mare joked, before a couple of them sat next to me, then followed by a couple more. The only mare left standing, was the one talking to me. She shortly sat down, right in front of me. Right before I was able to say or do anything, the mare in front of me began to introduce me to all of the others.

"Going from left to right from your perspective, you got Jade, Clover, Scarlett and Cyan." She explained. I looked at all of them respectively, from Jade, to Cyan. I then looked back at the mare in front of me. I raised an eyebrow towards the mare.

"So what's your name then?" I asked in a curious manner. She began to blush and then looked down at the floor.

Oh fuck! I am an idiot! I'm Lavender!" She blurted out, purely out of embarrassment and stupidity that she didn't introduce herself first. I was contemplating all of this, but then let it settle on the fact that I wasn't gonna get away from all of these mares. They weren't gonna leave me alone at all, unless this was a sick and twisted joke to make me feel worse, but I had a feeling that it wasn't.

The mares to the left and right began to chat as I slanted back against the wall. A couple of ponies came over, consisting of a couple of stallions and mares. The looked at me and then looked at all of the other mares here. They all looked up at the group, with a look of confused scowl. Lavender got up and stood her ground.

"What do you want?" Lavender spoke aloud, standing her ground. I didn't get a good look at some of them. The group of mares who approached me consisted of two pegusi, two earth ponies and a unicorn. The stallions looked angrily at the mares and then looked at Lavender. One of the stallions punched Lavender across the face and then laughed as she winced in pain. There was no mercy coming from the stallion. The mares beside me went over to Lavender and helped her up. She had stumbled from the punch and was recovering from the quick and lethal blow.

This was when I got up and walked towards the stallion. He eyed me like a hawk as I approached the group. I stopped in front of them and shook my head. They looked at one another and laughed. I smiled!

"Keep laughing! That is what always makes ponies like you too cocky. Put your bits in your mouth and hit somepony who is equipped to handle the situation!" I stated, wearing my smile like a medal. They stopped laughing. "That shut ya up! I like peace and quiet here, so if you don't bring that with ya, fuck off somewhere that you're wanted!" I ordered.

The stallion turned around and prepared to buck me. I was ready for him, grabbing his hindlegs with my magic and forcing him down as he tried to buck me. Funnily enough, he was very unsuccessful. I wasn't gonna get to cocky, but I had a feeling that my mother had taught me well since the first attack. One of the other stallions went to tackle me, but I dodged him, making him fall past me. The mares just looked at me as I looked back at them. I used my magic on one of the mares that were approaching me, a bolt of magic that didn't hurt her, pushed her back slowly. I span around and pinned the main stallion against the wall, pinning him up against the wall by his neck. He began to find it hard to breathe, as I held him off the floor.

"Leave those mares alone!" I commanded him, with a raspy vicious growl. He nodded as much as he could and gasped for air. I released my hold on him and pushed him away with my magic. I turned back to the mares on my side and saw that the stallion that charged for me had started going after the mares. I whistled to him and for his attention. "Fuck off back to your area, or I'll shame you just like I did your mate!" I roared to him. He smiled. Wrong answer!

I teleported behind him and forced him to the floor, spreading his forehooves and hindlegs out as he laid on the floor. I jumped over him and turned to face him. I quickly looked over to the Lavender and then saw that she had a massive bruise on the left side of her face. The must have hurt! I looked back down at the stallion and then back at Lavender. I teleported the stallion to his mate, still splayed out on the floor and proceeded to walk towards the mares.

Scarlett and Jade were watching out for anypony else. Scarlett being an earth pony and Jade being a pegasus. Behind them, Cyan and Clover were helping Lavender. Again, Cyan being the Pegasus and Clover being the earth pony. That left Lavender as the unicorn. I looked back at the group of stallions and mares, walking away from my new group of friends. I walked up to Lavender and sat down beside her. I looked at her and sighed.

"So what was that about?" I asked, confused on who that stallion was. She turned to me and blushed slightly.

"That was my ex! He was an asshole and didn't respect me at all, as you could see. He was a little abusive as well and I didn't like that." Lavender said, shivering a little. I felt a little awkward, but I placed a hoof on her shoulder. She looked at me and smiled. "We all didn't get your name!" She stated, perking her ears on end. I smiled a little.

"It's Blitz!" I chuckled, feeling better about myself. As soon as I did tell them all my name, the bell for the highschool classes rang. I got up and turned and lowered a hoof to Lavender, to help her up. She smiled and blushed a little, before accepting the kind gesture and wincing as she got up. I had no idea why she winced as she got up, but I had my doubts about if she was ok or not. We all separated to your lecturers and began our day. Scarlett was in my lecturer, so she came with me.

During the morning time, Scarlett talked to me about many things that she likes to do, in her spare time. She was quite nice actually and her drawing skills we unmatched by any artists that I had ever seen. I spent a lot of time on the internet. It was the only thing I could do, since I didn't want to spend time making friends over doing the required workload. Now that I had ponies to talk to, I felt a little more relaxed.

The day rushed forward towards lunch without me contemplating anything. I walked over to the canteen, brought myself some food, then sat down in my spot next to the library. I used my magic to hover my food in front of my face, taking bites out of it every now and then, while looking around at everything that was happening around me. Clover and Scarlett walked up to me, followed shortly by Jade and Cyan, as well as Lavender. Lavender smiled at me, as I smiled at her. She sat the closest to me, whereas the others sat with a moderately big gap between us. Lavender was practically against me.

"I hope you don't mind me being this close, I'm a little on the edge now!" She spoke softly, placing her head on the floor as she lied down. I looked down at her with a caring smile. She looked at me and sighed. She placed her hoof on the next to mine and positioned it inside my two forehooves. I wore a soft smile, looking into her eyes. "Thank you Blitz." She added before closing her eyes. Before she did though, I lifted her head up lightly and placed her head on my saddlebag, so that she didn't have to keep her head on the floor. She looked up at me and blushed a tiny amount. She closed her eyes and relaxed, rubbing the inner part of my forehoof.

"That's the most relaxed she has been in years!" Clover called out to me. I looked down at Lavender and smiled. I didn't want to ruin her bliss right there, so I just rested my head against the wall. I looked up at the approaching rain clouds. Clouds that the pegusi should have cleared. Looking at the clouds, they were way too big to be moved by pegusi alone. I saw some cover close to us, that was also empty, as the rain began to appear. I could feel some water droplets falling onto my head and then called out for all of us to go to the cover. They all nodded and rushed over there. Lavender got up slowly and walked to the cover, escorted by me. I could tell that she was out of it, but this hour of lunch break was the perfect time to get some rest.

I got under the cover, that was barely able to cover us all, and laid down. Lavender joined me and sighed, watching the rain. She looked at all of the others as they were chatting away. She looked really tired, so I guessed that she didn't want to talk. I placed my saddlebag in front of me and Lavender and placed my head on it. Lavender poked me with her hoof and I turned to look at her.

"You mind if I place my head against yours on the saddlebag?" She asked, a cute little blush still prominent on her face. I nodded and placed my head back on the saddlebag. This was shortly followed by Lavender placing her head on the saddlebag too, then moving her head next to me, rubbing it up next to mine. It was nice, having somepony here to relax with. She moved her body next to mine and again, placed her hoof in-between my hooves. I was technically holding her hoof. "I owe you!" She whispered into my ear, so that only I could hear. I smiled and closed my eyes and relaxed with her.

I left it a few minutes before I opened my eyes again. I looked at group and smiled. "What's the time?" I asked in their general direction. Cyan looked at her watch and smiled.

"Time you woke Lavender up! The bells gonna go any minute." She said with a smile. I nudged Lavender a little, before going a little closer to her.

"Lavender? It's time to wake up!" I whispered in her ear. She opened her eyes slightly and sighed. I smiled and helped her up. We both yawned as we got up, making each other laugh a little. Lavender didn't talk at all. She just smiled. Again, like this morning, we all headed off into our own individual classes, only this time, everypony but Jade and Clover were in the same class.

I sat at the front in my magic class, like always. Lavender, Cyan and Scarlett were all sat next to each other. I looked around before the lecturer came in, to see Lavender talking to Cyan and Scarlett. She looked at me and then eyed the empty seat next to me. She teleported her stuff next to me and then walked over, while everypony in the class was chatting. Nobody noticed her move, apart from Scarlett and Cyan. Lavender sat down and looked at me.

"We are going to be good friends!" She promoted, earning a little smile from me. I was going to be having a very happy couple of years.
