My Little Pony: Student Six Timeskip AU

The lessons led by Mrs. Fluttershy had concluded for today, and the lecture had left the students in her class with things to think about as well as some much-needed research. As the bell rang, the students left, chatting amongst themselves, their chatter becoming non-distinguishable as they left the room.

As all of the younglings left the classroom, Yona gave a silent glare towards the red drake, who she had an occasion to meet by him embarrassing her buggy classmate. As Garble moved his way across the reflections of his presence on the shiny walls, Ocellus, rather proudly, made her trail to the exit to be greeted by a draconequus eating a bowl of popcorn.

Her “uncle” Discord in the flesh.

“Not this one dwarf, again…” Terramar said in concern, due to the nuisance Ocellus’ so-called uncle usually was.

The hippogriff siblings were aware of who Discord was, as the magical creature sometimes teleported to their castle and helped their mother in raising either the sun or moon, while she was busy doing something else in her royal routine.

“Howdy, Ocy!” the draconequus introduced himself to the cyan changeling filly, lightly amused by the red baby dragon’s behavior who walked beside him and then missed some steps in the trance of seeing Discord, while in the meantime going downstairs in slight fear. His younger sister followed behind. “Is there something I missed?”

“But of course, uncle!” the changeling declared merrily until she suddenly flew to his ear and started whispering. Discord bent his face so he could listen. With some of his nods, the magical creature gave her some thumbs up, grinning.

“I always knew you would take some qualities from rightful models.”

Garble, as a dragon hatchling full of ego, couldn’t stand the humiliation and looked at someone giggling behind the shoulder. “Hey, what are you laughing about, turkey?”

Silverstream and her little brother kept the giggles right away, the little red dragon staring daggers at their feathery silhouettes. The red lizard saw no sign of suspicion on their beaks, most likely because they quickly morphed into indifference.

“Me? Na-uh. I’m just talking with my brother about the girliest things imaginable.” she trailed off a little bit, her chuckling getting monotonous and fake. “But I digress. I’m not laughing, nope.”

“She’s telling the truth…” Terramar said as the orange baby dragon approached with her stare.

The 8-year-old red dragon sensed someone following him behind.

“Leave her alone…” the orange dragon said as she put a claw on her brother's shoulder. "You always do this, stop looking for a fight when there is none.”

Garble rolled his eyes in reply. “Yeah, you are right, sis. Why should I bother talking with two turkeys?”

“Yeah, me either.”

As the siblings were about to head to the exit, a blue young griffon came closer to the pink hippogriff.

“Are you alright?” he asked.

"Yeah, they often try and pick fights," Silverstream replied.

"Why don't you fight back, it's clear that words won't help?" Gallus said as Silverstream continued her business.

"That's just not who I am, I don't feel like I need to fight him." Silverstream admitted. in her slower tone. “He is… just a dragon-kind of fellow.”

“Absolutely, sis!” Terramar added. “They are just dragons and behave like dragons usually do.”

“If you say so.” the blue griffon youngster didn’t mean to leave, as he was interested in knowing the brighter pink hippogriff better. “Hey, ya know… Princess, isn’t it?”

Silverstream nodded.

“Well, uh…” Gallus scratched his neck, awkwardly looking on the floor.

"I was wondering if you'd like to hang out sometime, hit up sugar cube corner, or maybe catch a movie?" Gallus stuttered and blushed as Silverstream giggled.

"You mean like a date?" Silverstream asked, causing Gallus to bite his lip nervously as he nodded.

“Kind of.” the blue griffon said, just right before Terramar gave him a silly look, implying how much of thumbs up the light blue hippogriff was giving. Gallus desperately tried to ignore the gaze of the smarty bird and simply trailed off with a dazzled expression. “Anyways, your brother baffles me.”

“Oh, do not mind him. He is just a smarty,” Princess Silverstream chuckled. “Always doing historical research to know about every creature.”

“Aww, man…” Terramar groaned with puffy cheeks.

“I see.”

The blue griffon was not amused by wiggling “eyebrow-like” creamy furs above his eyes, so he can hide the blush. “But listen here… Do not treat it like something romantic. Just a friendly assembly. Got it?”

Silverstream nodded, her blush less visible due to her rosy feathery coat. “Got it.”

Deep in thought, the pink hippogriff pondered about how she didn’t notice this gentle bird earlier. Just a slow flow of memories allowed her to remember the name.

“Is your name, Gallus?”

“Yup.” the 8-year-old Gallus admitted to her question with a majestic bow, that made both the hippogriff siblings smile, imitating the Canterlot dialect as much as possible. “Can I acquire the whereabouts, where should we spend the time lazing around, eating popcorn and muffins?”

While the dialect her mother usually spoke annoyed her, Silverstream guffawed at her classmate’s try, while Terramar was freaked out by the attempt of the older griffon.

“Yes,” she glanced at her brother to ask. “Terry, do you want to come with us? Gallus will borrow some movies we can watch at the castle.”

“Sorry sis,” the younger hippogriff shook his head. “I have better things to do than watching some boring tv shows.”

“Your choice, Terry.”

The trio moved out of the school at an uneven pace. Meanwhile, the cyan changeling still talked with her mother’s best friend.

“Thanks, uncle for your attention, but I really need to go home now.”

Discord furrowed his brow and smiled. “Do not need to worry about this, my little friend”

With one simple finger snap, the changeling and her “uncle” found themselves back at her mother’s cottage. Ocellus’ dad, Pharynx just watched some boring newspapers as usual. His glance left the text.

"You already home?"
