- "All right Anon. New life at a new school. Hopefully it'll be better than back home"
- >Yeah, that's me, Anon Y. Mous.
- >Most of my friends call me Anon.
- >Well, if I had any that is
- >I won't bore you with the details, but let's just say, I wasn't with the "IN" crowd
- >I wasn't even in a crowd
- >Too much of a loser to be with the popular kids
- >Not enough of a loser to hang with the nerds
- >I was just me
- >I moved to a small apartment here, in order to spend my senior year in Canterlot High School.
- >My parents thought it would be better than to go to Detrot High.
- >Hey, new beginnings right?
- >Well, that's the idea
- >Hmmph, this place seems pretty much the same to Detrot High
- >Bunch of kids hanging around the halls, noise abundant everywhere, and th-
- >What is that coming right t-
- >"Coming through!!"
- >With that little warning, I got tackled to the ground
- >What a way to start the first day at school, minor bruising with a side of slight concussion
- >"Oh my god! I-I'm so sorry! I was in a hurry an-"
- >Jeeze did she keep talking
- >Rubbing my head, I managed to regain my bearings and took a good look at my assailant
- >She was still apologizing when I did look at her
- >She wore a grey tee with a bubble design and jean shorts, looking like a typical teen
- >But that's where it stops
- >Her hair was golden blonde and her eyes of the same color
- >Speaking of which, her eyes were crossed
- >I couldn't tell if she was still talking to me or someone else
- >I slowly rose to my feet, waving my hand to dispell any of her doubts
- "It's fine. I should have been paying more attention"
- >She was one to quickly accept my apology as she gave me a big hug
- > I didn't expect this, and blushed as she did so
- >"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you! I thought I was gonna get yelled at again..."
- >Her mood switched from jolly to sullen instantly
- "Hey, it was an accident after all. I don't have any reason to yell. Just be careful when you're running somewhere."
- >I gave her a smile, hoping to brighten her mood a bit
- >She gladly returned the smile as she nodded
- >"Thank you mr..."
- "Anon. My name is Anon Y. Mous. Nice to meet you."
- >She smiled once more.
- >"My name is Derpy Hooves. Nice to meet you too Anon. Oh no, I'm gonna be late again! I hope we can talk again! See ya!"
- >As quickly as she arrived, she vanished
- "Derpy huh? Well at least I talked to someone new. That's a good start."
- >From what I can gather, things are gonna be fun at this new place.
- >No matter what school you go to, classes still tend to be just boring
- >Good thing I had a study hall right before lunch
- >A nice hour to be alone with my thoughts, and maybe homework if I wasnt feeling lazy.
- >A few of the kids were falling straight into those cliques just as I had thought
- >The jocks were in one corner of the room, and the nerds in the others
- >Neckbeards towards the back and preppy girls near the front
- >Just about everyone or everything was in it's own group
- >That is to say mostly everyone/thing
- >I didn't belong to anyone of them
- >This was beginning to become a repeat from last year
- >Only one way to deal with this
- >Keep it bottled inside and try not to flip out during school
- >"Hey, why don't you look straight at me when i'm speaking to you?"
- >I turned my head to look at the owner of the voice
- >Is that...Derpy?
- >"Didn't you hear me? Or are you as retarded as you look?"
- >Damn, did that yellow chick really bring some harsh words
- >Derpy shifted in her seat, her hands fiddling with the other
- >She obviously didn't like what was being said, and I had to admit, it was kind of a low blow
- >"Can't think of anything to say tard? I guess you really are dumber than you look"
- >I could feel that one from here
- >The yellow chick laughed proudly at what she said
- >Derpy on the other hand didn't take it so well
- >A small puddle formed on her desk that dripped from her face
- >Yup, those were the waterworks.
- >Okay, she definitely didn't deserve that
- >All right, it's time to stop this
- >As if on cue, Derpy got up from out of her seat and ran out of the room
- >A trail of tears followed her as she did
- >I really felt bad for her, considering I didn't see her for the rest of the day
- >Maybe it was just a coincidence
- >Finally, the school day was over
- >Nothing too eventful happened, just a typical day at school I guess
- >"Did you see that crossed eyed loser run out crying? One of my better works I hafta say."
- >I just shook my head and walked down the front steps
- >I wanted no part in that conversation
- >Walking down the street, I saw nothing but kids walking about, going in an out of shops
- >I should have suspected as much from a populated school
- >"I can't stop! Watch out!"
- "Huh?"
- >I turned to face the source of the voice, only to find myself with a blur of gray charging into my body at full speed
- "Did someone get the license plate number of that truck?"
- >"Oh Anon! I'm sorry!"
- >I shook my head, coming back to reality
- "Derpy? We really have to stop meeting like this"
- >I let out a soft chuckle
- >"You're not angry...?"
- >I shook my head once more
- >I can't stay mad at someone like her
- "No, of course not Derpy"
- >She leaned and hugged me once more
- >"Thank you so much! I think I'll run you over more often!"
- "I guess I wouldn't mind that. Do people really scold you for that?"
- >She sadly nodded her head
- >"And not just that...I try to do good, I really do! But something always messes up...and i'm the one to blame..."
- >I rose to my feet, dusting myself off as i did so
- >I stuck my hand out, offering it to Derpy
- >She let cracked a small smile and took the offer
- >Helping her up, I offered to buy her something to eat
- >She accepted it, on the grounds that she pays for her own meal
- >Well, I didn't mind it.
- >after all, she was a nice girl
- >After taking shop in a small diner, I began to talk to her even more
- >Over the nice snack, she told me that she's been picked on for her appearance
- >And from the stories, she's sort of a klutz
- >But she has also been trying her best
- >I felt a bit sorry for her
- >Trying your damned hardest only to be stopped by some sort of divine intervention
- >After leaving the diner she gave me one more hug
- >I kinda was taken by surprise
- >And I felt a bit of blush tint my cheeks
- >"Thanks for being so nice to me Anon. It means a lot..."
- "h-hey. Its no problem at all."
- >She let go of me before saying good bye
- >She really was a carefree girl, and shouldn't have to deal with those jerks at school
- >After walking a bit more, I reached my apartment
- >I couldn't help but think about what she said earlier
- >"Thanks for being so kind to me. It means a lot..."
- >Really?
- >No one has even talked to her?
- >She doesn't seem to do the things on purpose
- >They are exactly as they seem, accidents
- >I yawned softly before retreating to my room
- >Jeeze, time really flew by today
- >I practically jumped into bed
- >Things seemed to get a bit better, and maybe that golden haired girl was part of it
- >One thing is for sure though
- >Things are going to get real interesting in Canterlot High
- >After spending a month here in Canterlot, I've learned many things
- >One of those things is that no matter what kind of life you've had, someone has had it worse
- >Sadly this was the case with Derpy
- >I learned about this during one of the study hall periods
- >Now study hall was just horrible
- >That yellow chick, Sunset Shimmer I think her name is, just kept on harassing poor Derpy everyday
- >And everyday it ended the same way, with Derpy running out of the room in tears
- >Well I decided I should follow her, just to show her some support when others wouldn't
- >Thing was, I really didn't get why, but I just felt terrible when people outright disrespected her
- >I also felt angry, and shocked
- >Maybe because she was really my only friend.
- > Since day one, she was the only one to talk to me.
- > And it seemed to be that I was the only one who talked to her like a normal person
- >Maybe it was because we came from the same world
- >Sort of
- >Whatever the reason was, I felt the need to just help her smile whenever she got sad
- >After a bit of tailing, I lost sight of her>Let me tell you, she moves faster than most of the kids in track
- >I searched around the hall I last saw her in
- >Not so much as a knocked over trash can
- >I sighed softly in defeat, just hoping she was all right
- >Tucking my hands into my pockets, I walked back to study hall
- >Or I would have if something didn't catch my ears
- >Just the faintest sound of a rattle in the...Janitor's closet?
- >I slowly stepped up to the door, and put my ear against it
- >Sure enough there was something making noise on the other side
- >I gently tapped on the door, trying to get whoever's attention, I assumed Derpy.
- >No answer, though the sound of someone sniffling did continue
- "Derpy. It's Anon. I'm comin-"
- >"N-no! Please...d-don't come..."
- >Yup, that was her
- >"Please...just..."
- >Her voice cracked with what little she spoke
- "Okay. Then I'll just stay out here. Does that sound fine?"
- >Silence seemed to be my only answer
- >It just killed me a bit
- >"Why...?"
- >I waited to see if she would say something else
- >That was all she said, nothing more, nothing less
- >All right, I thought to address the elephant in the room
- "I..I'm sorry...I don't understand..."
