Fifteen years after what is known as the Bloodcrest Incident...

“Hades, Star, it’s time for breakfast!” A now forty-four year old Savvy Eve called from the bottom of the steps of a staircase.

Being that it was her day off, Savvy was dressed in comfy looking clothing that consisted of an eggshell-white decaled shirt, stone-gray sweatpants, turquoise-colored slippers and was wearing her hair in a bun; her husband Express Print, on the other hand was in a teal-blue polo, coal-black pants and pure stone-gray slippers.

Soon, two fifteen year olds by the name of Star Cake, Hades Hades emerged from their bedrooms and proceeded to walk down the stairs.

Star Cake currently has long messy butter-yellow hair; she was wearing bubblegum-colored pjs with small snow-white clouds on both the top, bottom and eggshell-white bunny slippers.

Her adopted brother Hades, on the other hand has shoulder length cloud-gray hair that was covering his right eye along with a patch of berry-red hair on the left side of his head that had turned a paler hue ever since he decided to stop drinking blood/consuming magic altogether which has resulted in him becoming malnourished, he eyes are magenta colored with vertically slitted pupils, two transparent blue fangs on the right side of his mouth with two solid white fangs on the other side, he also has cider-colored skin that was starting to sag due to the lack of nourishment; he was wearing a coal-colored tank top and sapphire-blue colored plaid sweatpants.

“Morning sleepy heads, your dad is dishing up breakfast” Savvy explained.

“Morning mom” Star and Hades replied in unison.

“We’re having french toast, scrambled eggs and bacon” Savvy exclaimed while Star and Hades sat down at the mahogany kitchen table.

“Okay” Star replied while Hades merely grumbled as he struggled to stay awake.

“How’d you two sleep?” A now 42 year old Express asked as he placed two plates down in front of Hades and Star while Savvy was pouring drinks for everyone.

“Good I guess” Hades replied while Express placed the final two plates on the table.

“What he said,” Star added.

“Dig in!” Express replied once the drinks were out and everyone had sat down.

The clinking of silverware against plates and the sound of chewing was all there was for about half way through the meal when Savvy broke the silence “Now what are you two gonna do when you’re at Canterlot Prep?” Savvy questioned.

“Don't throw hands when someone tries to bully Hades,” Star replied after sighing whilst thinking. “Even though those assholes deserved it…

“Don’t break someone’s arm when they try to hit Star with a chair,” Hades added after also sighing.

“Good, now finish your breakfast,” Savvy responded. “We were barely able to escape getting sued by their parents”

“Yes mom” Both Hades, Star replied before the silence reappeared and remained for the rest of the meal.

Once everyone had finished their meal Savvy with some help from Express took the plates and placed them in the sink for their butler to wash.

“Now go get ready for school and please try to stay out of trouble” Express exclaimed with a sigh.

“Yes dad” The two siblings replied before heading to their rooms.

“I had Silver Fox place your new uniforms on your beds, also he will be the one driving you to school today.” Savvy added to her husband’s directions.

Star and Hades merely nodded in acknowledgement before heading up to their rooms.

Several minutes passed before the two siblings emerged from their bedrooms. Hades’ had kept his hair the way it was since he woke up, he was wearing a shadow-gray hoodie over an alabaster-white button up shirt, khaki-brown pants, leather-black loafers and was carrying a soot-black school bag; Star, on the other hand had combed her hair which was now a bit wavy, she was wearing a tan-colored vest that had a small dandelion-yellow colored alicorn on the top right above the a pocket, an alabaster-white button up shirt underneath the vest, oxford-blue colored skirt, eggshell-white socks, pecan-brown loafers and was carrying a pastel-pink school bag.

“You’re not gonna wear the jacket?” Savvy asked her son when they reached the bottom of the stairs.

“Nah, I’m good,” Hades replied.

“Okay, you two got your student IDs and your wallets?” Savvy questioned.

“Yes mom” the two replied.

“Okay good, you two have a great day!” Savvy exclaimed after hugging Star and Hades before leaving.

“And try not to get into any more fights!” Express added from the den.

“Okay dad” Hades and star replied in unison as they walked out the door.

Hades and Star were greeted by their family’s butler who was standing in front of a midnight-blue SUV, Silver Fox, a hundred year old elf with silver hair, emerald-green eyes and banana-yellow skin; he was wearing an ink-black vest over a snow-white button up dress shirt, an ink-black bowtie, snow-white gloves, pewter-gray dress pants and ink-black loafers.

“Good morning young master Hades and young miss Star” Silver Fox exclaimed as he bowed before opening a car door for them.

“Mornin” The two replied before lazily climbing into the car.

Once Hades and Star were in, Silver Fox closed the door, got into the driver’s seat and drove to Canterlot Prep.

It was a quite five minute drive from the Eve residence to the private school mainly because Hades and Star were struggling to stay awake.

Once they arrived and had stepped out of the car, the pair immediately became the center of attention due to rumors of Hades spreading before the two of them started their first day; most of the looks were of shock and fear, while others were of disgust due to the rumors being true.

Star gave a quick but concerned glance to her brother while Hades simply sighed, took out his student ID and showed it to one of the security guards who, after a pause allowed him entry to the fenced off campus, Star did the same but was let in faster than Hades was.

In the quartyard was a large golden alicorn standing in the middle of a fountain, some benches, outdoor lunch tables, trees of both types, there was three main buildings of the school, the one in the middle which was the largest looked like a brand new victorian styled castle, the other two buildings were smaller than the main building but were also victorian styled, but equally as brand new looking as the main building; however, the pair knew from a tour that was given to them on the day of their registry that the building on the right was the gym/indoor pool while the building on the left was for classes that dealt with magic use, potion creation, classes for non humans (some of which Hades would be attending due to his lack of knowledge on his own abilities,) and anything that may end up endangering the rest of the school.

As Hades and Star were traveling to the main building for homeroom the pair heard a girl shout “Excuse me!” to which the pair turned to look at where they heard the sound, only to see someone sprinting towards them at an incredibly high speed, leaving a trail of dust behind her.

“Oh crap!” Hades and Star shouted; however, before the two were about to duck out of the way the person who they now noticed was a human girl had stopped dead in their tracks from about a foot away from them.

“HELLOMYNAMEISPINKIEPINENICETOMEETYOUPLEASECOMEWITHME” The girl tried to explain in a single breath.

“Um, what?” Hades and Star replied after looking at each other in confusion.

“Heh sorry out of breath, you know?” The girl apologies before introducing herself. “Hello, my name is Pinkie Pie. It’s a pleasure to meet you but please, do come with me!”

“Hold on, why does he need to go with you?” Star questioned before Hades had a chance to say anything.

“Well you see I was told to escort Hades to the student council office, but why that would be my job, I don’t know!” Pinkie Pie explained while shrugging. “Oh and don’t worry about missing Homeroom or any of your classes, your teachers were explained the situation”

“Fine but I’m coming with him!” Star replied.

“Okie dokie lokie” Pinkie Pie responded. “Follow me!”

“Uh okay?” Was the only thing Hades said before quietly following Pinkie Pie who was doing a bouncy walk towards the main building and behind Hades was Star who admittedly had an annoyed face.

“Princess Celestia originally asked Flutershy, who is a friend of mine, to escort you, but she was too scared so I am doing it in her place!” Pinkie Pie shared as the trio entered the main building. “Also I like meeting new people!”

“You should have mentioned Princess Celestia asking for him sooner!” Star muttered to no one in particular.

The walk to the student council office was pretty dull, aside from the glances that Hades gathered.

Once the trio arrived then entered the student council office Hades saw that there were two High Elves, one who was noticeably taller than the other, two regular elves, another human and two Were-avians, one of which was hiding behind the other; he had also noticed that six of them were wearing student uniforms while the tallest High Elf was wearing a pastel-pink sundress with a soft-gold colored strap across the middle of the dress, a golden-tiara and soft-gold colored heels who must of been none other than Princess Celestia. Pinkie Pie then closed the office’s door and bounced towards the rest of the students.

“Hello Hades, it is so nice to meet you!” Princess Celestia exclaimed along with a warm smile.
