Lost Gems in Weird Places...

~The Element of Honesty~

Applejack dragged the bag of chicken feed across the yard to the chicken coop, huffing as she passed her older brother who was hauling two bales of hay towards the barn. She promptly shook her head, amazed about how much stronger he was than her... for five seconds before she tripped over a rock, spilling the feed in front of the chicken coop. Oh well. Not the first time that the chickens ate outside of their coop. "Breakfast!" She used her hand to spread the chicken feed out some more, straightening the bag so that excess feed doesn't get on the ground. Straightening, she paused as she noticed something shiny in the feed bag. "What the hay?" She reached in, pulling out the apple red gemstone. "Where did this come from?"

"Applejack!? Where are you!? It's time to leave for school!" An elderly voice hollered out, jarring the teen out of her thoughts.

Straightening, she shoved the mysterious gemstone in her pocket. "Comin' Granny!" Straightening, she brushed the dirt of her jeans. "I'll just make sure to call that feed company about the gem after we sign up for school." Walking over to the porch she brushed her hand along her favorite lasso... just as a low rumbling sound reached her ears. "Oh no... please tell me El Toro didn't escape his pen again..." Whirling around, she spotted the large bull tearing across the field headed straight to her. Diving to the side, she wished desperately for the lasso to be wrapping itself around him and not hanging limply on the porch railing... An angry roar escaped El Toro suddenly, startling her. Snapping her head up, she gasped upon realizing that her lasso had somehow came to life and had tangled the bull up.

"Applejack? Let's get goin'!" A deep masculine voice hollered out, even as loud footsteps thudded towards the screen door that separated the strange scene from those inside.

Realizing that the last thing anyone needed to see was the lasso tying up the bull seemingly by itself, she lunged forward, grabbing the end of the rope that was whipping around in the air. "Hold on a sec big bro! El Toro escaped his pen again!"

"What?!" Big Mac burst out the door, panic flashing in eyes only to freeze upon seeing that she had everything under control.

"Looks like I'm not too little to handle him after all..." Applejack teased him, all the while her heart thudded loudly in her chest, threatening to break free.
~ The Element of Kindness~

Fluttershy carried the large bag of kitty liter out of the backroom and into the section of the shelter that held the kittens and cats for adoption. Dropping the heavy bag down next to the large litter box, she knelt down, already pulling rubber gloves on as she prepared to clean out the dirty litter. Humming softly to herself, she went through the process of dumping the dirty litter into the large plastic bag she had with her. Thunk, startled, she glanced down to see that for some reason there was a brilliant light pink gemstone sparkling up at her from the top of the bag of dirty litter. Carefully lifting it up, she rolled it around carefully in her hands, before turning to face one of the cute kittens that was playing nearby. "Okay sweetie pies... which one of you buried this gem in your litter box?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about Fluttershy... can you scratch me behind the ears please?! I'm cute!" The kitten widened her eyes as she tilted her head to the side, a pleading look crossing her tiny features.

In Fluttershy's defense... kittens don't usually respond back when asked a question.
~The Element of Generosity~

Rarity pressed her foot down on the pedal, making her sewing machine whir into action. The click clanking of the machine might have bothered someone else if they were in the room, but for the desperate fashionista, it sounded more like a hopeful song that she will get that internship. Twisting around, she reached for her new box of lace, just knowing that the subtle heart design in the one thing of lace would look amazing with the Humble Heart based dress that she was stitching together. Pulling it out, she was expecting for a blueish purple gemstone to fall out, pulsing slightly with light.

"Now where did you came from? You weren't there yesterday." She mused to herself as she bent down, scooping the gem up into her slender fingers.

"Rarity! Mom says that if I want to go to the mall you have to take me and I promised my friends I'll be there!" Sweetie Belle's voice hollered suddenly startling Rarity out of her thoughts.

Stifling a groan at that, her parents knew how important this internship was for her!, Rarity leaped up from her sewing table.... a bit too quickly if the fact a large, and heavy, bolt of fabric began to tip over almost immediately was anything to go by. "No no no no!" Rarity hissed frantically as she thrusted her hands out in a desperate attempt to stop it from falling over. Instantly a glowing blue diamond thing shot out of her hands and held the bolt of fabric up.

Rarity took a minute to collect herself, quickly checking in her full length mirror that not a strand of her hair was out of place. "I'm going to need a super hero name..."
~The Element of Laughter~

Pinkie Pie grinned to herself as she poured the cupcake batter into the liners, even as the oven beeped to let her know that it was ready for the cupcakes. "Okie Dokie Loki!" She cried happily as she spun around, quickly opening the oven door and slipping in the pan.

Snapping the door shut, she set a timer, before turning her attention to the batter covered kitchen. "Oops... Mom and Dad are gonna be furious when they get home if they see this big of a mess!"

"I will help you clean up." Maud materialized out of thin air, her pet rock nestled on her shoulder somehow.

"Maud! You're home!!!" Pinkie jumped onto her older sister, hugging her so tightly that if it were someone she probably had cut off her oxygen supply.

Maud made no move to hug her merely looking straight ahead, her expression perfectly blank. "It is good to see you too little sister."

Once the overly exuberant greeting on Pinkie's side of things was over with, the two busied themselves cleaning up the disaster zone. Pinkie had just came back in from taking the garbage out, when the timer beeped. "Cupcakes are done!!!" Bouncing, she opened the oven door while Maud slipped an oven mitt on.

Bending over, Maud pulled the vanilla cupcakes out of the oven, setting them out to cool. "Now to wait for them to cool before you can decorate them."

Pinkie deflated slightly upon hearing her oldest sister say that, but dutifully set a timer to let her know when the cupcakes should be cool enough to frost. The door open as Limestone walked into the room, the usually angry, uptight middle sister glanced over at the two, before groaning and making her way out of the kitchen.

After playing a few card games together, Pinkie finally was able to get out the batch of vanilla frosting she made earlier and a variety of sprinkles. Working quickly, the two finished the project, as well as started cleaning up the mess Pinkie made while decorating them. "The school will enjoy these cupcakes for the bake sale." Maud commented as she carefully packaged the dozens of cupcakes.

"Thanks! And you know the best part!? I made an extra one for us to share!" Pinkie held out the messiest of the cupcakes, a grin crossing her features.

Chuckling, Maud cut the cupcake in half. The two bumped them with a cry of cheers, before biting into them, immediately Pinkie cried out in pain, pressing a hand against her mouth for a second. "There's something wrong with this one! It's hard!" Pinkie lowered the cupcake half, glaring at it as if it had betrayed her. That is when she noticed something odd... "Wait... there's something in here..." Pinkie carefully pulled out a gemstone that had somehow ended up in the cupcake. "Odd I wonder where this came from?" Pinkie blinked rapidly, even as she absentmindedly picked up a jar of sprinkles to add more to her cupcake... only for the sprinkles to explode the second they left her hand.

"I believe that gemstone just gave you a power." Maud somehow managed to keep her voice completely devoid of all emotions.
~The Element of Loyalty~

Rainbow Dash was not panicking. Why would she panic? It wasn't like she was late for soccer practice or anything like that. Okay, scratch that. She was ten minutes late to practice, but what did you expect from her when her fan club asked if they could take a selfie with her? Banging open the school's large double doors, she sprinted to the field, hoping up and down as she did so as she shoved first one cleat on, then the other. Tying her cleats while running wasn't as easy as one would think, but she managed.

Coach glared at her, fury flashing in his eyes. "Dash! You're late! Three laps around the field right now missy!"

"On it coach!" Whirling around, Rainbow took off at a steady jog around the track. She hadn't been doing her laps for that long, when she noticed something a little odd. Something hard and almost warm, the nice kind of warm that is, was inside of her left shoe. Groaning to herself, she stopped to bend down, taking her shoe off. "Of course... of course I got some rock in my shoe..." She broke of when a gemstone fell out of her shoe and into her hand. "Uh... where did this come from?" Puzzled, she decided to tuck it into her sock, trusting that she wouldn't loose it with it there.

Leaping up, she took off at a sprint... and promptly crashed into the fence on the other side of the school grounds. Groaning, she rubbed her head as she blinked rapidly. "What just happened!?"
~The Element of Magic~

Twilight took a deep breath, the smell of new books making her smile. She had just gotten an A+ on her history essay, so her parents said that they'll buy her whichever book she picks out at the store. Walking down the many aisles, she slowly meandered her way towards the Adventure section, mentally crossing all fingers that they had the newest Daring Do book. Finally spotting it after weeks of searching, not that she was excited or anything, she picked on of the copies up, quickly flipping through it to see if it was just as exciting as she hoped it would be. Satisfied, she walked back to her parents, handing the book over to them. With simple nods, the famous author and her husband walked over to cashier to buy the book. Twilight bit back a snort upon noticing that the cashier had been reading Velvet Sparkle's latest novel... and was trying her hardest not to freak out when she realized that the author of her book was standing in front of her... buying a book.

Purchase done, and one book signed, they were back home within no time at all. Much to Twilight's relief. Disappearing into her room, she opened the book up to start reading it... only for a mysterious gemstone that most definitely wasn't there when she picked it up at the store to fall out. Bending down, she picked it up, turning it over in her hands. "Weird... any idea where this came from Spike?"

Spike looked up from the squeaky toy he was chewing on to bark once in response to her question. Twilight shook her head, before noticing that her chemistry textbook was laying on the floor next to her desk instead of on her desk. Lifting a hand up, she pointed to it. "Spike did you knock off... gah!" A yelp of surprise slipped out when not only did the hand that she was pointing with starting glowing, but her textbook started to glow...and float upwards.

Let's just say, it's a good thing that Spike is a service animal to help with her anxiety...
~The Element of Communication~

Spike whimpered as the vet gave him his shot. Twilight had a worried look on her face, which was honestly normal for her. "There we go! All done! let me just fetch a bone for you for being such a good boy, then you can head on home."

Spike yipped in excitement over that, his tail wagging with excitement. Finally! He hates going to the vets! A minute later he was the proud owner of a new bone that was probably half his size, padding over to where Twilight's bike was stashed. Twilight scooped him up, plopping him into the bike's basket, before plopping herself down on the seat and pedaling off.

Spike settled HIS bone between his front paws, gnawing at it happily as Twilight took them home. "Best... bone... ever!" He yelped excitedly, lifting his head up to howl his excitement to the winds.

Twilight promptly swerved into a tree, thankfully she was wearing a helmet. "Did you juts talk?!"

It took Spike a second to realize what just happened. Recalling the magic gemstone that gave his owner powers, no one knew about that though, he eyed his bone warily. "Uh... I think so... hold on..." It took some effort, but he managed to break the bone in half to reveal another magic gemstone, this time green, pulsing slightly. "Uh, another magic gemstone. Ooh! Can you attach it to my collar!?"

"Um... let's get home first before we see about that." Twilight looked like she was about to pass out from shock.

Spike decided that now would be a good time to do what he was trained for and calm his owner down.
~The Element of Empathy~

Thunder boomed as rain pelted down from the dark sky, relentlessly not allowing anyone to have any kind of peace tonight. In one of the alleyways, a shelter of cardboard and a ripped tarp was the only shelter from the storm that an old woven basket received. A small hand stretched out of the basket suddenly, followed by the innocent giggle of a baby girl. She was swaddled so tightly in an old worn out blanket, that one couldn't really see her hair, besides a single red strand that brushed against her forehead. Her eyes were bright as she chewed on a gemstone that was glowing ever so slightly...

Let the Adventures Begin!

Author's Note

Hi! Okay for this chapter... actually this one takes place a couple of weeks after Silent Anger makes her debut. And I am so excited to write this one!!! Eeeeh! Hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it!
Okay when I was writing this I forgot that I said it was only a couple of weeks after her first debut... so it has now changed to after all of them have debuted! So yeah.... doing the math, I believe Miss Amazing, Masked Magician, Phoenix Star, and Pup are the only ones that haven't debuted yet. So yeah. Once this is posted I will try and finish the chapter that Miss Amazing debuts in. And possibly start the one where Masked Magician and Pup show up for the first time. Yeah... definitely need to do all that. Oh well. Any guesses on who Dennis really is?

Dennis

Fluttershy hugged Angel to her chest as she hurried through the hall to her next class. Stepping lightly, she slipped into the open doorway that acted as a portal to the mathematics classroom run by the sternest teacher that Canterlot High could have possibly hired. Turning so that she was facing the back of the class, she was shocked to see that her usual seat was already taken by a boy that she had never seen before.

His eyes were different colors, the left one being blue while the right was green, and he had messy brown hair that looked like it has never seen a comb before. His clothes were horribly patched and rather baggy on him, even as he twirled a pencil between his fingers as if he didn't have a care in the world. Fluttershy could feel her throat tightening as she opened and closed her mouth to tell him that she usually sat there... only nothing came out.

His eyes suddenly snapped upward, latching unto her own. "What?" His voice was sharp, bordering onto rude.

She flinched at that, before squeaking, hurriedly slipping into an empty seat next to him instead of speaking up about how much she would rather sit where she normally would sit. Through her bangs that she was currently hiding behind, she watched as he went back to his don't care about nothing attitude as the rest of the class filed in. This was only one class... no way they'll run into each other after this hour. After all it was a rather large school for being one of the smaller schools in the area.

Fluttershy slid into a empty bench at an equally empty table. Apparently the new kid, Dennis, was literally in every single one of her morning classes. Rubbing her eye tiredly, she picked up a fork, using it to casually flick her salad around her plate, her appetite rather diminished. Maybe if she had friends she could better handle the whole rude new kid in all of her morning classes. At least, she'll have someone to talk to about this new development...

"Really? Just a salad? The meatloaf doesn't look that unappetizing." Dennis suddenly appeared at her table, plopping down across from her, his tray containing a plate with the meatloaf and mashed potatoes. A rather mushy looking apple sat next to his bottle of water.

Fluttershy paled, suddenly uncertain about well... everything. Well, at least she knew that he wasn't actually stalking her. They just had the exact same schedule so far.

"Say do you know where Ms. Salloon's classroom is? I have her next."

Fluttershy fought the urge to bang her head against the table. Did the faculty just give him her schedule or something!?
~With Dennis~

He knew that he was most likely frightening her... and yet... out of all the girls that his father approved of him to hang out with over the years... none of them was anywhere near as gorgeous as Fluttershy Shy. Enough so that he used his powers to change his schedule to match hers... as well as maybe alter the memories of those who worked out his schedule in the first place to prevent them from noticing that anything was wrong.

Just because he was a supervillain in training doesn't mean he couldn't have a crush. Besides that, it was against the superhero code to use one's powers for selfish reasons, not the supervillain code. Besides that, the way her face flushed whenever he talked to her was adorable... as was her little squeaks of terror. To think! He wasn't even there as his alter ego! Her shyness from what he could observe was all natural and had nothing to due with him, and yet he found it entirely endearing.

Humming to himself, he slipped into the art classroom to find that she had managed to beat him there this time. A smile threatened to escape him as he watched as she sketched a rather grumpy looking bunny that was sitting on a stool in front of her. Plopping down next to her, he used his powers to summon a sketchbook into his backpack to pull out, spinning a pencil in his hands. Note to self, make a new mini statue for his secret collection... this time of her.
~Later, Silent Anger~

Silent Anger stretched her wings out tentatively, hovering near the nest that a family of robins lived in. There have been a series of... oddities, going on in this particular neighborhood recently and the police had requested her help to figure out why. Part of her was glad that they trusted her to get to the bottom of things, but another part of her realized that she was definitely out of her depths the more she talked to the animals in the area. A new supervillian, he called himself Discord apparently, was the one behind the oddities.

Wringing her hands together, Silent Anger landed on the ground with a soft thump, her mind whirling. Times like this made her wish that she knew how to get ahold of her fellow superheroes. Surely Humble Heart, Lady Fashionista, Party Bomb, Miss Amazing, or even the new one that showed up yesterday...complete with a sidekick, would be better at this than her!

"My... you look...lost." A shiver went down her spine as she turned to find herself face to face with Discord. (A/N: We all know what Discord looks like, so yeah. Not gonna try to describe him since I'll probably just mess it up.)

He was as chaotic looking as all the animals claimed. Panic clawed its way up her throat as she backed away from him, pressing her back against the tree that was behind her.

He snorted at that, taking a step closer to her. "Pathetic. To think that the people call you a hero. This is almost too easy." Discord lifted a hand up, a surge of energy that was a mix of dark green, dark purple, and black swirled into existence.

Silent Anger felt her heart thudding loudly in her chest... but it wasn't anger that was making it thud. It was fear, and unfortunately, in this scenario at least, only anger made her turn into a rage monster as the news decided to describe her other self as. She opened and closed her mouth several times, trying to find the courage to talk him down so he wouldn't actually hurt her, only no words came out...

"Hey! You! Leave her alone!" A strong blast of wind tore through the small park right then, knocking Discord back a few feet. With a grunt, he turned to face the newcomer.

Silent Anger however merely sighed with relief at the sight of Miss Amazing standing behind the villain. The fierce heroine had her blue wings spread wide, ready to take off at a given moment. In her right hand was a small storm cloud, crackling with lightning. Three lightning bolts graced her cheek, just like three butterflies graced Silent Anger's. Miss Amazing's outfit screamed athlete, seeing as it consisted of a skirt with leggings underneath it.

Discord huffed, looking unimpressed at her appearance. "You're no fun." Turning to face Silent Anger, he smirked at her. "Well, I better be going now! I'll see you around mademoiselle." With that he snapped his fingers and vanished into thin air.

Miss Amazing snorted at that, before leaping into the air, taking off rather quickly. Silent Anger wished she could have the same confidence that Miss Amazing did in her abilities. Even her name indicated just how confident she was!

Sunset Makes A Mess

Sunset was working on her comic book, one about a super that was trying her hardest not to get drawn into the world of superheroes. Luna was in the small kitchen making the stew edible. Celestia was sitting on the couch playing video games since Luna told her to stay out of the kitchen.

Shifting slightly, Sunset flinched as she brushed against Celestia's arm involuntarily. I really hope that note doesn't actually mean he's back in town... Sunset blinked at that, tilting her head slightly to the side, in the guise of concentrating on another detail of her comic. It would be best for everyone if she didn't mention that she heard that thought.

Luna stepped out of the kitchen, untying the apron that she wore with a smile on her face. "Dinner is..." Before she could finish her sentence, the doorbell went off.

Startled, Sunset eyed the door curiously, even as Celestia opened it to reveal that it was Zecora, her social worker, behind it. Sunset felt a small lump in her throat form as she wondered if this meant that she was being taken to a new family again. It wasn't like she had a really good reason to avoid staying in one place... or felt fairly safe around her. Besides that... the appearance of the new wielders of the elements of Harmony made her want to stay put for a little longer. They were going to need her expertise on those pesky magical geo gems anyways.

Celestia suddenly turned to Sunset as she grabbed her keys. "Sunset? I'm locking the doors. Don't answer the phone or door to anyone. Do I make myself clear?"

Sunset mutely nodded in confirmation, even as the sisters charged out of the apartment, the door locking behind them. Experience told Sunset exactly what being left behind, all alone, meant. Groaning, she glanced at Philomena, concern edging through her rapid thoughts. "Something tells me we're about to enter a warzone and of course I'll get blamed and tossed out yet again."

The bird merely whistled at her, not understanding a single word that she said. Sunset stretched as she stood up, flicking her fingers just slightly. Flames danced into view as she did so, which of course caused her principal's pet bird to completely freak out. Sunset hurriedly extinguished the flame, not wanting to draw undo attention to the apartment just yet. Besides, she had been only double checking that she still had it.

The young pyrokinetic empath dished herself up a bowl of the stew, nearly burning her tongue as she took a rather large bit out of it. She didn't sit down though, no. Sunset knew better than that. She needed to stay on her toes... until the others get back at least. Swallowing the last bit in her bowl, she placed it in the sink, before moving the stew off of the stove to cool down. Best to wait before she put that away in the fridge.

Wandering back into the living room, she eyed every little thing with an ounce of suspicion. Nothing appeared too out of the ordinary though... maybe a lifetime running for her life has made her a smidgen paranoid. Even as she thought this, she fingered the necklace that dangled around her neck. The elderly lady that had been her first guardian had claimed that she had been found in a dark alleyway as an infant wearing that exact necklace, supposedly it was a family heirloom. A little experiment that she had conducted in her preteens revealed to her that the necklace itself was in fact the source of her powers.

Not that anyone knew she had powers. Sunset didn't like hearing the thoughts of others and went out of her way to make sure that she never touched someone, even by accident! It was her fire powers that she had to be the most careful with. She couldn't lose her temper or else she'll burn down the entire building by accident. She had learned that with her first foster family.

A screech escaped Philomena, snapping her out of her thoughts, just as a chaotic looking boy, no way was he a man yet, broke into the window. Just like the countless others before him, he eyed her almost nervously. "You have something that my Master wants."

"Tell your precious master that if he wants it... he has to fight me for it personally." Sunset slipped into a fighting stance, her heart pounding loudly in her chest. Miss Shimmer had taught her a lot about fighting before the untimely heart attack took her from this world.

The boy shifted slightly, gray eyes darting around nervously. He had two bent horns growing out of his head, reminding her of a yak with their positions. "Master says to give him the Element or suffer the consequences."

"What's your name boy." Seriously.... the kid had to be close to eight! No way was he in the double digits already!

"Kaaos." The boy didn't even hesitate to answer her question.

Sunset hummed, looking unimpressed by that. "Seriously? Are all of you guys' names have something to do with chaos?"

"What are you talking about!?" Kaaos clearly hadn't been expecting her to be so talkative.

"The fact your name is just the Finnish word for chaos." Sunset smirked to herself, suddenly glad that she was fluent in multiple languages. Miss Shimmer was the best first guardian anyone could have asked for.

With a frustrated growl, Kaaos lunged across the room in a clear attack. Too bad Sunset was ready for him. Summoning her flames once more, she easily dodged him, and flicked a flame at his horns, knowing that it wouldn't cause permanent harm to him if she hit him there. Growling, he summoned an army of miniature Kaaos to tear through the apartment. That appeared to be a thing for the Chaos minions, as she had silently dubbed them, to do. Heaving a sigh, she launched an counterattack.

Sunset sighed as she scanned the completely destroyed apartment. It truthfully looked as if a full blown battle had taken place there... then again, maybe it did. Kaaos was more adamant than the ones she had faced in the past that she hand over the geo gem to him to give to his mysterious master. She still vaguely remembered the first time it had happened... that particular minion's name was Konton, and he was the one that lead to Miss Shimmer revealing a few facts about herself that Sunset most likely was never supposed to learn in the first place.

Rolling her sleeves up, she glanced over at Philomena. "Time to make this place look less like a battlefield and more like a wild teen party took place here. Something tells me I'll get in less trouble with that."

Moving swiftly, she went about the place tidying it up carefully. Throwing out the burned pieces of various items lying around, scattering some scraps of various clothes that Celestia had been toeing the idea of turning into a quilt of sorts. video game consoles out haphazardly. Eventually, when the clock struck midnight, an exhausted Sunset opened Philomena's cage, before crashing unceremoniously onto the couch.

Author's Note

Hi there! okay this chapter takes place... basically at the end of the chapter that we met Miss Amazing in. If you're wondering it was that she had learned about her first guardian, well... I believe this is a crossover with Avengers. 😏
Konton is the Japanese pronunciation of the word Chaos. No, I am not bilingual. I am using google translate. I really hope you all enjoy this little chapter!

Teddie

Oh no... THAT just happened

"Okay class listen up, we're doing a group project for the next three weeks... and yes I'll be assigning your partners." Mr. Grumpy Hooves grumbled out as he paced the front of the art classroom. Not for the first time, Sunset vaguely wondered why such a grumpy person was even teaching art to a bunch of high schoolers. "....Pinkamena Pie and Sunset Shimmer will be the last group to present. For the project you need to find something, or someone that..."

Oh no... oh no... oh no... Sunset sucked in a breath, tensing slightly as she recalled just how, touchy, Pinkie Pie was. As if to confirm this was a bad idea a pink blur tackled her in a hug. "Whoopee! This is so exciting! I'm excited, are you excited?" I cannot believe that I unlocked a new power last night while patrolling! I wonder what else I can do? Oooh! I need to talk to Maud!

Sunset hurriedly peeled off the hyperactive teen, panic clawing at her chest. Pinkie Pie was Party Bomb... why couldn't it be a professional party entertainer!? "Don't touch me. In fact, how about you do the research and I do the art part of the project?" Having seen Pinkie's 'artwork', Sunset figured that they'll get a better grade if she didn't touch the art supplies.

"Awesome!!! What are we doing it on? Ooh!!! I know! Let's do it on the Avengers!!! Or the Fantastic Four, or the X-Men or we could do it on..."

Sunset pinched the bridge of her nose, exasperation flooding her. "Pinkie... I'm pretty sure that most of the class is looking at those subjects. I was thinking something more nature. Like a park. Or possibly a savannah."

"That works too!!! This is awesome!!! Oh! Could we do a rainforest? So pretty!" Does Pinkie never shut up? And how has she kept her secret identity secret with her love to talk a mile a minute?!

Pinkie plopped down next to her Maud, her tray thumping against the table. "Say... Maud what do you think will happen if Party Bomb randomly discovers that not only does she have explosive sprinkles, but she also has the ability to manipulate balloon animals to do her bidding?"

"I would hope she has someone that can help her practice using this new ability before she tries using it in a fight. Best to know what exactly she's capable of." Maud paused with her sandwich posed to take a bit, shooting her younger sister a really look.

"Cool. Cool. On a totally unrelated note, think you can help me make some balloon animals later." Pinkie grinned at her sister, knowing that she couldn't resist her.

"Of course...as long as it stays unrelated." Maud ignored how her friends gave her a weird look at that. It wasn't the first time a conversation between the sisters had about Party Bomb turned into a warning about not trying to copy something that the heroine did with her powers.

"I wonder why Sunset is staring at your sister Maud." Crystal Gem spoke up suddenly, nodding her head towards where the new school bully was leaning against the wall, munching on an apple, all while staring directly at them.

"What makes you think she's looking at Pinkie?" Maud tensed slightly, concern flashing through her. Did Sunset somehow figured out that her little sister was Party Bomb?

"The fact that she was staring at the lunch line... until Pinkie sat with us, then she was staring over here. My guess is she's watching Pinkie." Crystal shrugged, tacking a big bite of her salad.

"Why would she be watching Pinkie? Oh no! You don't think she's planning on doing something to her do ya!?" Opal Marble, Crystal's more energetic cousin, blurted out suddenly, grabbing her cousin by the shoulders and shaking her.

Crystal looked as annoyed as always over Opal's exaggerated actions. "Opal, chill. Before I tell Aunt Sapphire that you have lost it again."

"Hey! Leave Mom out of this!" Opal widened her eyes in horror, collapsing back down into her seat.

"Then I suggest calming down before I do call her. I believe she is in the middle of a big meeting right now?" Crystal stabbed at her sandwich, rolling her eyes skyward as she did so.

Only Maud was allowed to know outside of the Gem/Marble households that Opal was the daughter of a very busy CEO to a rather big company. Almost Stark Industries big. Maud allowed a small smile cross her features as she reminded herself that if she could keep the paparazzi from finding out about Opal attending here, far from her luxurious penthouse, then she should have no problems at all keeping her friends from connecting the dots between her sister and Party Bomb... and she most definitely could keep Sunset from figuring it out too.

Sunset slammed the locker door shut, her mind whirling. If one of the heroes was attending here... then what were the chances that the others were also here? Taking a step back, she bumped into someone else. Ah can't believe that dumb idiot got away last night! What kind of super hero am Ah if Ah can't keep a villain restrained enough for the police to chart away? I knew I should have kept my lasso around him longer than that! Paling, Sunset spun around to find the FFA club looking at her funny. Unfortunately, the two closest to her were both female. Applejack and Pear Blossom glanced over at her, identical looks of concern flashing across their features.

Sunset groaned at that. It was a known fact that both Applejack and her rival, Pear Blossom, were annoyingly honest. The geo gem of honesty could have claimed either one of them. "You alright there sugarcube?"

"That's not my name!" Sunset snapped, before storming off towards the exit. She was careful though to make sure she didn't bump into anyone else. She now had two confirmations that two of the new heroines attended her school. Do the geo gems not understand the importance of choosing adults?!

Author's Note

Hi! Um...yeah. Case of the lazies. Sorry. Um, yeah. We now know more on what was going on in the chapter called This one has a Sidekick in The Principal Trouble. Sunset really needs to stop bumping into people. Also, I really like Maud's friends.

Um... yeah. She also needs to pay more attention to who she bumps into. Just as a heads up, Pear Blossom is her cousin, but no one, not everyone Applejack and Pear Blossom knows this. Since, yeah... family feud. They'll figure it out eventually.
