Summer was over. It's now the month of September. Flash had done his morning routine and had gotten ready for school. When the realization had hit him:He's going into school with virtually no friends.

Flash of course knew Soarin, but he probably was gonna be with the athletes and Flash was not really an athlete.

He looked out the window of his car. Though he had told himself this a million times that he wasn't gonna get nervous, he was in fact nervous. To himself, he was going into an unknown territory full of people he's never met.

The Car stopped at the parking lot, "Okay Flash, this is it." said Stormbringer, "Remember, I'm gonna right here at 3:00 alright."

Flash nodded, "Yeah."

Stormbringer smiled and patted Flash's shoulder, "Alright, have fun."

Flash nodded. He got out of the car, schedule in hand. He began walking towards the entrance of school. But it was different this time. The whole school yard was filled with students, talking amongst one and other. Flash could feel a lump in his throat, he was beyond nervous.

Flash looked back, his father was beginning to drive away. Now Flash was really alone in this new school. He looked back at the building and gulped.

Then, his eyes narrowed. "What are you doing!? Are you really gonna let some school scare you!" He closed his eyes and began prepping himself up, "Alright you can do this, you've been to school for at least....." He stopped to do the math, "14-3....Eleven or so years. You can do this, you have to do this!"

He opened his eyes again. Taking a deep breath and marching towards the school entrance.

Entering the school, al of that confidence he had just built up dropped. Somehow, the hallways seemed bigger to him, maybe it was just all the students everywhere or maybe it was just him.

Flash looked at his schedule. "Okay first class.....Homeroom, Room 218C." He made his way through the many students in the front foyer and started for the stairs. He didn't really have anywhere else to go, no one to talk to. So making the trip from the front foyer to homeroom seemed like the only thing he could do.

He walked up the stairs to the second floor. It was a bit less congested with people, but still groups of friends could be seen hanging out. Flash walked through the hallway, looking at his surroundings. At a corner of the hallway sat a group of guys and girls talking about future school events

Flash walked around the corner, heading for straight for the math hall. Briefly glancing at a locker he accidentally saw a couple kissing. He immediately looked the other way before the couple could see him. His eyes were widened and his cheeks blushing red a little. "Oh dear god I could've lived life without seeing that!"

He began walking in a hurry. Walking towards the math hall he turned again. But then, things got even worse. As he was speed walking he accidentally collided into another student who'd been walking out of the math hall. The two both fell back and landed on their bottoms. The student's binder and pencil case fell to the ground.

Flash facepalmed himself while he was on the ground. "OH COME ON!? YOU'VE ONLY BEEN HERE FOR FIVE MINUTES AND YOUR MAKING YOURSELF LOOK LIKE AN DUMBASS!" Flash looked at the person he collided into. "Oh god, I-I am so sorry!" He apologized with urgency, "I had no idea of where I was looking."

"It's fine." The voice was female. That made Flash worry even more, what if it was someone's girlfriend. Who knows what could be done to him. The girl picked up her stuff and helped Flash off the ground, "Just uh, be careful in the hallways." She chuckled and walked off.

Flash proceeded to walk away. The he stopped, glancing back at the girl. It was the girl from that picture he'd seen during his tour. The Fall Formal queen with that sinister expression in the picture. His eyebrow arched for a moment. The he glanced forward, not really knowing what to make of that confrontation. "That was....something."

He walked towards his homeroom. Class 218C. The door was wide open and only a few students were in the class. This made it less difficult to find a seat, with not that many people in the class, Flash could just take a random seat and not worry about sitting beside someone he didn't know.

So he did, taking a seat at the front of the class and setting his bag down right beside the desk. He took his phone out, "I wonder how Striker is doing?"

He began texting one of his friends from San Francisco, Striker Halemarry.

Flash: Ey

Flash sat there for a moment, then after a few seconds, the icon of his friends profile pic lit up. Signifying he was online

Striker: Ey

Flash: So is it like also the first day of school for you?

Striker: Yeah pretty much. How about u?

Flash: Yup, so far I'm kinda a loner 😂

Striker: It's probably just that new student feeling. I mean you've been through worse right? Like that time you kinda flopped on the track.

Flash: First of all I tore my hamstring and that shit hurt. but even so I'm so not into this school. I mean I'll be lucky if I can grind until Christmas!

Striker: It probably wont even be that bad Flash. I mean your the new guy the worst they'll do is just ask you questions about where your from or what was your home like. u know the cliché's

Flash: Well you're probably not wrong. But this whole thing is gonna blow not having any friends at the moment.

Striker: Ey I gotta go. Class is gonna start soon. And hey good luck in Canterlot City.

Soon Striker disconnected. Leaving Flash to drop his shoulders in disappointment, "Man, and I was beginning to feel at home to." He swiped up at the bottom of his phone and tapped the home button. Going through his app drawer, he looked at games and other apps he's either been through a million times or simply never used.

He pressed the power button, turning off the screen and putting the phone in his pocket. He let out a sigh and rested his forehead on his desk, "Man can time go any slower right now?! Man why does time perception have to be a bitc--

"Uh, excuse me?" Flash raised his head and glanced at a student talking to him. It was a guy with pale navy blue hair and yellow skin. He wore a simple t-shirt with a star on it, grey sweat pants with the bottoms cupped and some regular Nike runners. "Uh.. is anyone sitting here?"

Flash looked to the seat next to him and then looked back at the student. He simply shrugged, not really knowing himself as he'd just walk into the class.

"So uh, do you mind if I sit here?" asked the student.

Again, Flash simply shrugged but this time actually said something, "I mean....yes I guess I don't-- I don't really know."

The student placed his bag on the desk and sat beside Flash. There was a silence between the two of them. That is until the student spoke again, "So uh... I'm not sure I've seen you around here before."

Flash glanced back at the student, he thought for a moment, "Well it's better than waiting for the bell to ring."

"Oh, I just moved here recently."

The Student's eyes widened, nearly choking on his own spit, "Oh!.....that's cool." He got a bit nervous. The year before Flash's arrival, Canterlot High had five whole new students just randomly come to the school. One was a girl he had fell in love with, than it was three sisters who came by during a music competition, than....it was a girl he fell in love with but this time she wore glasses and came for the friendship games.

"OH DEAR GOD!?….Okay... please don't be some magical threat bent on destroying us!?" He thoughtfully pleaded to himself. Taking a deep breath as he thought, "So uh, I'm Comet Tail, and you are..."

Flash introduced himself to Comet Tail, "Flash, Flash Sentry."

He stammered a little, "Okay Flash.... whe-where you from?"

Flash immediately thought back to what his friend Striker had just told him. The part about 'the cliché's' he wanted to facepalm knowing his friend was right, but instead he just answered. "Man talk about the cliché's!"

"San Francisco."

Comet Tail's shoulders dropped in relief, "Oh thank god He's a normal human being!" The thought of a new student almost gave him the chills due to last years... 'events'.

"Well, welcome to Canterlot High Flash!" He sounded a bit more enthusiastic, "Home of The Wondercolts!"

Flash smiled and nodded, "Uh.. Thanks." He didn't know any other way he could respond to that.

The Bell rang. By then Class 218C had been filled up with students. For Flash it was people he'd never seen or talk to before. By that point him and Comet Tail had just have a few small conversations here and there.

"So you really witnessed somebody shove a watermelon in their nose?"

"Yup." Flash nodded, "Whether or Not it was worth it.... I still have no idea. But I only had that one chance so I took it."

Soon the teacher walked in. A woman with brunette hair put into a bun and light blue skin. She wore a dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a blazer over it. She had a black skirt and wore black dress shoes.

"Welcome back everyone!" said the Teacher, "I hope you all had an extraordinary summer break and are ready to get back into the swing of things." She walked over to the chalkboard and wrote her name, "My name is Mrs. Heartstone! and I'm your Homeroom teacher!"

Flash looked at his schedule, looking at each class he realized that he had a math class with Mrs. Heartstone at the last period.

She continued to talk, "Now, I want to start the class of by everybody introducing themselves to each other. So we can all get acquainted!"

Flash's eyes widened, talking to new people he's never met would probably be at the bottom of his list of do's, "Great, Now I actually have to talk to peo--"

"And how about we start with you." She pointed Flash.

His eyes widened, his whole thought process became completely disoriented. "OH COME ON?!" He panicked, somehow someway he'd been thrown into the most uncomfortable situation he could be in right now.

"Would you please stand at the front of the class and introduce yourself." She asked nicely.

Flash got out of his seat. He could feel the sweat go down his face, it was only a matter of time before he completely combusted up there.

He walked to the front of the class, turning around and facing everyone. He gulped nervously at the sight of so many people he'd never seen before.

"Whenever you're ready." said Mrs. Heartstone.

Flash raised his hand and waived, "Uh...Hi, I'm Flash uh...….. I'm not really from this area....or this city for that matter." He gulped again, he knew for a fact that he was gonna look back at this moment and hate his fourteen year old self.

Mrs. Heartsone's eyes sparkled in excitement, "Oh so you're a new student!" Flash nervously grinned, he nodded his head and shrugged. "Well isn't that nice, so where are you from Flash?"

That caught the attention of some of the class. The term new student would've probably gotten the to their feet. They weren't opposed to new students, but they were a bit skeptical because of what happened last year.

"Well I'm from San Francisco." Flash stammered, "Uh... Well that's it." He walked back to his seat in a hurry. "Oh man, that was the most uncomfortable thing I've ever been through!"

"Well...that was excellent Flash!" Said Mrs. Heartstone, "Comet Tail would you like to go next?"

Comet Tail shrugged as he walked to the front.

Meanwhile however, just that small action of walking away in a hurry caught the attention of seven girls who all looked suspicious of this 'new kid'. Rainbow Dash The Star Athlete, Pinkie Pie The Baking Maniac, Rarity The extravagant Fashionista, Applejack the strong and tough farm girl, Fluttershy the Animal Whisperer, Twilight the Wise and Intelligent and last but not least, Sunset the Strategical leader.

Maybe it was just a normal new student, or maybe this kid might end up being someone they'd have to keep an eye on in case he's a magical threat. And judging by they're record of new student's recently, that may be the case.

Author's Note

So here's the next chapter to Prospect. I wanted it to be uploaded on Friday but I got really lazy so I kinda forgot and let me say something, Doing weekly uploads is harder for me than I thought. But I love the challenge so.....

Anyway, Flash finally is off on his first day at Canterlot High and he is hating every moment of it. He's basically entering new territory and I guess I could kinda relate because at one point I was also a new kid and I was like, "Damn.....This shit really happening I'm nervous as hell!"

But anyway I kinda plan on making it a running joke that Flash being a new kid might be a magical threat. Just a play on how every time a new character appears and they have a significant role in EG, they end up being a magical threat.

Oh yeah also, the introduction of Comet Star. So...…. He was the guy that took Flash's place during the whole, "I'm Sunset Shimmer I stole your crown, nah sike I got beat hey I'm sorry and all that!" Story, otherwise known as MLP EG The Movie.

So why'd I choose him? Well he seemed to be shipped a lot with Twilight Sparkle and I was kinda like, "Cool, Okay." and I kinda put him in 😅

Will he have any sciginficant role? Probably I'm not about to Yamcha this man!

Other than that I just made an OC character, the Teacher Mrs. Heartstone.
