High School Ponies

Chapter 3: School Project

A couple of months later, the leaves are changing colors to start the season of fall.  Even with the start of the new season, the new school still going on.  It is now morning of a new day and a new week.  And also of more work and more fun for some ponies.

Scootaloo was racing along on her scooter as fast as she can.  She knew she was going to be late because it seemed like that Soarin and Dash were having a night out and came home late and she made the mistake of staying up late doing anything she wanted.  And now she is late and Dash had already scoled her because of it.  She is moving as fast as she can until she came to a screeching halt at the front of then school.

She then took off her helmet and ran inside but then was seen by a hall moniter.

"Hold it, where do you think you're going?"

Scootaloo turned around and sees a grey earth pony and replied "I'm off to first period."

"Well now, that started a few minutes ago and I want to see you in after school detention young lady."

Scootaloo mumbled under her breath "That is the fourth detention this month.  Huh, an new record." and walked off towards her locker to put in her scooter and her helmet.  Afterwards, she then walked along the hallway and when she arrived at her class, she could hear talking.  She then opened the door and the blue unicorn teacher says "Well Scootaloo, glad you could make it.  Please, take a seat."

Scootaloo then sat down beside Applebloom whom gave her a worried look to which Scootaloo just shrugs.  Pokey then stood up and says "Alright class, today we are going to be working on a project which is going to last a month.  This idea came to me some time ago and now I hope all of you will enjoy it."

His horn then glowed a white aura around it and a box which appears to be holding some stuff pony dolls.

Rumble then raises his hoof and says "Hey Mr. Pierce, why are there dolls there?"

Pokey just giggles and replied "Glad you ask Rumble, these are not ordinary dolls, these dolls have a few spells on them and also you and a mare in this room are going to take care of them."

All of a sudden, relization dawned on the students which he then says "That's right students, today you are going to learn how to be parents."

He then picked up the box and walked towards the rear of the class and says "Rumble, since I see you and Dinky together sometimes in Ponyville, you and her will be partners."

Rumble took the doll and looked towards Dinky whom is just smiling to which Rumble smiled back.  Pokey then walked towards Pip and says "Mr. Pip, you and Applebloom are going to be partners."

Pip then took the doll and sees Applebloom with a blank look to which he just smiled and waved to her.  Then to his surprise, she did the same thing to him.

After a while, he arrived at Spike and he says "Spike, you and Sweetie Belle are partners."

Spike shows a concerned look to which he looked at Sweetie and she had a confused look also.

"And lastly, Featherwieght you and Scootaloo are partners."

At first Feather was happy until he sees Scootaloo with a stern look which gave him chills down his spine.

"All right class, I want you to now sit next to your partners and for the remainder of the month, that will be your seats for now and you have the rest of the class to get to know them."

So then every student in there moved next to there partners and everypony started to talk to each other.

"Oh my," said Dinky excitedly "this is going to be so much fun."

"I guess it would be fun." said Rumble

Applebloom then says "Well, this could get interesting."

"Yep, I think it will." said Pip

Spike is looking at the doll when Sweetie says "Well, this might be fun and strange all at once."

Spike nodded his head and says "I agree."

As for Featherwieght and Scootaloo, all they are doing is looking at the doll until Scootaloo says "Ok, let's just get this over with."

All Feather could do was nod his head.

As soon as the bell ran, the mares then took the dolls, all except Scootaloo to which Feather had to hold onto it, and went on towards there next classes.

Later after school, Applebloom was walking home with the little baby when she hears somepony calling to her.  When she turned around she could see that it was Pipsqueak.  She then waited until when he finally catches up, he was panting, but when he catches his breath he then says "So Applebloom, how should we do this?"

"Well, we could try to take care of it and well.." she thinks for a minute but then gets a evil like smile to which Pip says "Applebloom, why are you smiling like that?"

"Well, I just remembered what my granny said one time that if I ever get married, the colt that is with me will have to work on the farm."

Pip just stands there will a worried look but then shackes his head and say "I'm up to the challenge."

"Alright then, follow me."

So then both Pip and Applebloom walked off towards Sweet Apple Acres.

Spike is walking alongside Sweetie Belle and holding the doll when he says "So then Sweetie, what would your sister say about this?"

Sweetie thinks for a minute until she replied "Well she would think it is so cute and try to help me."

Spike laughs and says "Twilight will respon the same way."

So both of thne laugh and continue walking.

Featherwieght is busy holding the doll when he sees Scootaloo coming towards her.  At first he thought she was coming to help.  But she just flew off and Featherwieght says to himself "This is going to be hard on me more then her."
