Snowflake Obsidian and her sisters and brother sitting at the bus stop and were missing their old school. Snowflake being the eldest didn't have her license yet so it was the accursed school bus for them...until Snowflake can do her driver's test. The next eldest was Firebrand she was a fighter and had a quick temper; the youngest two were Starshadow and Knuckles, these two were twins and had similar interests.
Snowflake Obsidian was white as snow with jet black hair and red bat-like wings and pointed threstral ears and her mouth was ordained with a pair of fangs.
Firebrand was like her sister but she was grey as ash and her hair was ashan in color and highlighted with yellow.
Knuckles was also threstral and his skin tone almost made him black as a moonless night, his hair was a deep red and highlighted by black tips.
Starshadow was just like him but a lighter hue than her twin and was the smallest one of the four. The quartet waited for the bus when an old farm truck pulled up. "Yall need a ride?" Knuckles saw the girl driving the vehicle and not much else; it was the Apple family kids Applejack who was driving, beside her sat her brother Big Mac and in the backseat sat Applebloom the youngest. While Knuckles was infatuated with A.J. Firebrand was focusing on the vehicle behind the truck. The driver of the now visible four door sedan was Fluttershy and her brother Zephyr Breeze. Zephyr was what had Firebrand's eye.
"If you can take my siblings that'll be great! I'll just walk...kinda need to clear my head." Starshadow had left with her twin and Snowflake Obsidian trudged alone to the school. She missed her friends and old school, she was also angry because she had a special someone and the night of her last school dance got stood up. She was silently joined by the recognizable Vinyl Scratch bobbing away to some tune and Octavia, Lyra, and Bon Bon who hadn't noticed that Snowflake Obsidian was in front of them. She saw the look in her two siblings' eyes and knew they developed a crush already...their father had hinted on the trip Equestria about bending some rules. The people behind her had by now caught up and tried to get her attention and failing miserably.
When she arrived at school she saw her brother and that farm girl chatting away, her sister Firebrand talking to that guy who looked like a prep school trophy boy. Starshadow was with a group of five girls and seemed to get along nicely. Fliers were strewn about for a dance that was coming up. Back home her father never let them attend such things because it was dangerous for the sole reason was that the threstrals that required blood always were taking advantage of their non-blood consuming threstral species. Snowflake Obsidian had recalled that their father saying he might change the rules since the Equestrian folk were much different. Snowflake ran into two girls who seemed to be in a bad mood. She learned that these two were named Limestone Pie and Aria Blaze who took a fighting stance. Knuckles saw the situjust like Firebrand and prepped tk break up a fight.
Limestone and Aria hesitated then noticing that Knuckles and Firebrand had sharper fangs than their opponent. Snowflake Obsidian flared her blood red wings and in a blur attacked and Aira slammed into a locker and Limestone barely dodged a left hook. Kucnland Firebrand barely took half a step when a blur of color slammed into Snowflake. After that it wad blur of color and Snowflake living up to her first name as the air froze into ice because her created wind chill by her speed alone. Snowflake still won and soon stared into the eyes of the principal and vice principal. While seated in the principal's office she saw a young man there who was there for placing a tack on a teacher's chair.
"Hi I'm Shining Armor and I heard you took down Limestone Pie, Aria Blaze, and Rainbow Dash by yourself."
"Shut the fuck up! I don't want to hear it it!"
"Watch your mouth! Jeez! At any rate the school dance is coming up wanna be my plus one?"
"Never been to a school dance before and I don't plan to do so......for personal reasons and we never really did them back home except for that one damned time! However, if I'm not grounded and if our parents let us go...I'd accept your offer."
"If I may so...you're kinda cute." Snowflake Obsidian blushed slightly.
The Hallway
"I can't believe what happened " Knuckles said to his to his two siblings and their new friends. Limestone and Aria went to the principal's office to get Snowflake Obsidian out of trouble. They liked people who could stand their ground. Rainbow Dash felt her bruised ribs and moaned.
"Damn she packs a strong kick."
Starshadow replied gently, "She held back about ninety-five percent of her full strength. My sister would've shattered every rib where she had kicked you." R.D. looked dazed when that realisation hot her. Snowflake Obsidian's parents were strolling down the hall and looked unhappy. When thr situation was cleared up Snowflake Obsidian joined her siblings and sat silently for the redy of the day and in the aread she was vest in academically she was failing terribly.
Knuckles knew that everything Snowflake lost her temper a deep depression soon followed. Applejack tried to help but was ignored. Shining Armor soon made an appearance by tackling Big Mac who just held him like doll. Shining Armor went to sit with Snowflake who just looked miserable. "We all lose our tempers now and again...we just need to learn a way to help subside or channel that rage another way."
"The only way for that to happen Shining Armor is for me to run about a hundred kilometers or sixty-two miles."
"Rainbow Dash here happens to be the track team captain she might let you join." Rainbow Dash just nodded at what was said and stood to head to her next class.
"Snowflake be at the track this afternoon at three o'clock and don't be late!" Snowflake numbly nodded and stood up and walked for locker which was located on the other end of the school.
