Equestria High

[This is Shade, no info this time]

< This is Shine, also no info >

________________________________________________________________________

It’s a nice Saturday morning. Celestia’s sun is shining high in the sky and the spring birds have returned to make families. As for me I’m relaxing in my new bed in Twilight and Fluttershy’s room. The room is huge, there are several bird homes hanging around for Fluttershy’s animal friends. And I’m pretty sure the walls are actually bookshelves, seeing as how they stretch from the floor to the ceiling. I try to catch up on my reading and several missed issues of Equestria Gaming, but first I have to deal with Twilight and her sudden fascination for Shade and Shine.

“So tell me Chaos.” Twilight begins levitating a clipboard and quill from a nearby shelf. “How long have you three been together?”

“We’ve been together for about 11 years.” I said skimming over a paragraph about Mare-io party 9.

[“Hey turn the page there gonna have an in-depth guide for Fallout Equestria.”]

<”Wait I’m not done reading about Mare-io!”>

“Alright, next question. What type of magic did you use to stop your friend a few days ago?”

“I wouldn’t call him a friend… more like… a pet! I have to keep an eye on him almost all day when he’s around. As for the magic, it was Arcane Magic. Black Arcane Magic to be exact.

Twilight stops writing on her clipboard and gives me a confused and intrigued look. “How is that possible? Arcane Magic of that caliber was disbanded along with StarSwirls passing.”

“I don’t know. But if you want answers why not just ask them yourself?”

“I can’t exactly see or hear them now can I?” Twilight says in a sarcastic tone.

“Of course you can’t, how could I forget?”

<”Hey maybe we could try the Linking spell!”>

[“Nah.”] Shade says pulling a cigarette from out of his mane. [“I don’t think Twilight is ready for a spell like that. She’s too young.”]

<”You may be right. Plus, we never tested the spell on anything before.”>

“I think we should give a try.” I said getting off the bed and too where Twilight was sitting. “Alright Twi, we’re gonna try a spell that might help you get all the answers you want.”

“I’m ready for anything you got!” Twilight says in a confidant tone.

I place the tip of my horn against Twilights. “Now just hold still for awhile.” I said closing my eyes to start the process of the spell. My horn began to glow with a white aura and quickly switched to black and then back to white constantly. “Hey. Fluttershy!” I called out to the yellow Pegasus who was tending to a few of her potted plants.

“Yes.” Fluttershy says as she turns around. “Oh, I… I’m sorry I didn’t know you and Twilight were… I mean, if you wanted some privacy I could…”

“No, I just need you to move the books from around us so I can start this spell.”

Fluttershy gives a slight nod and starts to move the piled up books from around Twilight and I. With enough space around us I began to evoke my magic and channel my energy into the tip of my horn. As the aura began to move from my horn onto Twilight's, Shade and Shine were busy drawing an enchantment circle with their magic.

“Alright Twilight this next part is going to fell a bit different, but try not freak out or it’ll mess everything up.”

“What do you mean by different?”

With a quick motion I placed my forehoof under Twilight’s chin bringing her head up to mine. “W... what are you-“Before Twilight could finish she felt a pair of lips against hers, I’m not sure what was going through my mind but it felt like it was the right thing to do at the time. I release the kiss and stare into Twilight’s eyes for a brief second.

<”Oh my~.”>

[*Sniff* I always knew he had it in him, but to actually see him do it! I’m so proud.”]

<”It’s something I thought would never happen in his lifetime.”>

[“You’re telling me. I’ve been giving him advice for years and for once he actually listens to me.”]

<”Don’t act like all this is all your doing! I had a part in it too.”>

[“Oh please, all you do is give him shitty advice about ‘finding the mare of your dreams’ and ‘you should only sleep with her if you love her.’ That’s horrible advice!”]

<”Well at least I didn’t tell him to go to clubs just so he could take advantage of drunken fillies and mares!”>

[“Wouldn’t matter had sex.”]

“AHEM! I’m sorry to disrupt your chat about me but I fell like you two can handle the rest of the spell from here so if you’ll all excuse me.” In with that I was door as fast as Rainbow Dash leaving a confused Twilight and now red coated Fluttershy behind.

Outside the room I find myself breathing heavy and trying to catch my breath. My heart was pounding against my chest and my vision was going blurry before my hooves. Why had I done that? Was the only thing I could ask myself. I’ve traveled around a lot but never had I got emotional with any other pony. I stood outside the door for awhile until I heard a clicking noise. The door across from Twi’s had opened and out came a pony I was happy to see.

“Gears! I haven’t seen you in awhile, what have you been up to?” I said to Gears who placing a controller in his saddlebag.

“Well, in all truth I’ve been working on a new… project~.” Gears drug the ending of the word on for awhile giving his usual creepy, wide, grin. It still doesn’t help that he wears glasses so thick you can’t see his eyes.

“Care to tell me what it is?”

“I’ve been working on a new game that I would like for you and our friends to test for me before I get it put up for sell.”

“Awesome! What type of game are we talking about?” I ask excited by the sheer mention of testing a game that could potentially be great.

“It’s every type of game in one.” Gears started to close his door but stopped half way. “Come on Louise it’s time to work.” A split seconded later a lab rat with miss-colored eyes can out of the room and crawled up Gears leg onto his head.

“Cool rat.”

“She is cool isn’t she?”

Gears led me through the school down into the basement where he said his lab was. On our way there I decided the best conversation to bring up was his cutie mark since I wanted to know my friend a bit better.

“So Gears, how did you get your cutie mark?” I said following behind Gears as he made many twist and turns through the schools hallways.

“If I tell you now then the chapter will be too long and we won’t make it to the important part.”

“Alright then, whatever that means.”

With one last turn we find ourselves staring at an elevator, Gears pushes the button to call the elevator. The elevator makes it up and we get inside before it closes and makes it’s the trip back down to the basement. Inside the elevator it was really plain, there were only two buttons one for the floor we were just on and the other for the basement. The elevator music was really catchy; it wasn’t long before I noticed that it was Winter Wrap Up. I’m sure I heard it on the Internet some time ago, maybe here?? Anyway we reached the basement and I was seriously awestruck at what I saw, machines everywhere! There was what looked like a transporter in a corner and a cannon sitting next to it. On a lab table in the center was a computer and a laser gun attached to the top. And sitting behind it was a couch with Phoenix and Dark both who were both relaxing playing Call of Cutie: Modern War Mare 3.

“Watch this Phoenix, random tomahawk throw.” Dark presses the bumper on his controller causing his character to throw a tomahawk straight into the air. The tomahawk flew in an arc before coming down and hitting Phoenix’s character right in the head.

“WHAT THE FUCK! I SEWAR YOU ARE CHEATING!”

“Don’t game rage at me just because it’s 34-0 and counting.”

“It seems you are enjoying my collection of games.” Gears said while taking a seat at his computer

“Hey Gears, hey Chaos, didn’t hear y’all come in. So where’s this game we’re supposed to be testing?” Dark said putting the controller down as he got a headshot on Phoenix and won the match without a single death.

“I’m gonna start it up now all you have to do is have a seat until its ready.” Gears was already opening files and doing things on his computer. “Why don’t you have a seat with them Chaos and I’ll call you when it’s ready.” Gears said with his creepy grin again.

“Alright, but I’d rather we play something else if that’s ok with you Dark.”

“Yeah I’m getting tired of winning at the moment anyway. How about we play Smash Bros.” Dark held up a game case for the Wii a classic controller in hoof.

“Sure, I’m the best there is when it comes to using Snake. Seeing as how I just finished Hay Eater a few days ago.”

“I’ll play.” Phoenix said still irritated and upset about his loses. “But we play tournament style, that way Dark can’t cheat at this too.”

“Not my fault you suck at games.”

We popped in the disk and took a seat on the couch completely oblivious to what Gears was doing. Gears was at his computer putting in the necessary data so he could add new characters to his game. And he had just the ponies who would make for the starter characters. With a few more clicks the laser mounted to the computer powered up as silently as possible and took aim at its targets.

“Hey Gears, how much longer until your game is ready?” I ask trying to keep my focus on the to keep from losing my last life.

“It’s almost done. I just have to add the starter characters so it can begin.”

“Alright but hurry up there’s a-“ My sentence was cut off by laser hitting the back of my head causing my body to transform into data before I was sucked into the beam and into the computer.

“HOLY CELES-“Dark was also hit and sucked in as well.

Phoenix had his eyes glued to the screen and had no idea of the events that just transpired. “YEAH I WON! IN YOUR FACE DA-“Winning the match Phoenix rejoiced for a split second before he was also hit.

“Now Louise, let’s see if my game is working right.” Gears said picking up a portable version of the laser and a laptop with a game screen on it.

Authors Note's: I have found the secret of longer and better chapters. Don't type them on this website, instead type them in Word. Another note I have given my self motivation to get theses chapters out faster. I noticed that Vine and Mr.Charge are catching up to me in chapters and I refuse to fall behind them. So I'll do what I can to keep ahead of them. My first goal is to catch up to Dark, then Ice and the KillJoy. More ponies will suffer my wrath of new found motivation!
