Canterlot High School: A Short Story

Improved Essays
It all started on a Saturday morning in Equisvile, just three blocks down from Canterlot High in a small house. Behind it's simple gray walls sat a high schooler named, Flash Sentry. Fairly well built with orange skin and wild blue hair, many liked to joke he was the picture of 'adult cool'. Essentially, what every adult thought the cool kids were like nowadays, a joke he took pretty well.
He was stretched out on his couch, scribbling a few notes in his songbook. Specifically, changes for a few new songs he and his band mates were in the process of testing. Moments like this were pretty rare, between school, homework, social time, practice, and gigs, hence why new songs were so rare for them. Happily, Flash was finally able to sit down and

Flash just looked up, an apologetic smile on his face. The girl in question was laying across from him, her orange skin and long fire like hair complimenting her stern temperament. If she wasn't glaring right now she'd be rather beautiful, that being the school's universal opinion of her.
"Sorry, Sunset. I don't have a lot of spare time to clean, what with everything else in my life," he explained, crossing out a few particular lyrics. He really needed to have a chat with Gavel Smash about his word choices in the near future. Flash didn't care how popular it was, they weren't going

He didn't have any delusions about his position of trophy boyfriend, a trinket meant to make her look better to the masses. Not that he minded, it kept him from getting the normal Shimmer treatment, and he got a few perks too. Not to mention, once you got to know her…
"Hey, wake up!" Sunset snapped, pulling Flash from his silent thoughts. He gave her an apologetic look, before turning back to her notebook.
"Sorry, last night's concert ran a little long babe," he explained, crossing out another of Smash's lyrical selections. Sunset just rolled her eyes, going back to her web shopping. Something of a more recent interest, Sunset would spend hours browsing for things she didn't have any use for, many of them being toxic for Flash's poor wallet.
After a few seconds of awkward silence, Flash resumed his work. The only noise in the room being the dull whirring of the fan. Looking over his book, Flash gently moved his foot to tap Sunset's leg, an action that made her twitch. A low growl escaped her lips, making Flash go

    Standing on the curb, Veronica pulled her jacket tighter against the breeze, and exhaled the slightest bit when the charger came into view. Through the car’s heavy tint, she couldn’t see the driver exactly, but the effortlessly smug look from the driver’s seat when she climbed in was instantly familiar. Hands at her sides, feeling the seat’s leather as he peeled away from the curb, Veronica had to miss the bike, a little. Sure, the threat of death rang less imminent, even in the seat termed ‘shotgun,’ but oddly enough, sharing a console felt more intimate than the physical proximity of sharing the motorcycle. “Are you gonna tell me what this is about?”…

    While Barry phased through time he erased what happened after: “I’ve kissed Iris West twice, and I have managed to erase both times from existence” (www.buddytv.com). Throughout the journey, Odysseus and the Flash mature and acquire great skill and confidence. Before Odysseus truly matured he often was self-centered, “I would not heed them in my glorying spirit, but let my anger flare” (9:414-415). Odysseus cares a lot more for his men, is more humble towards monsters, and has more respect for the Gods. Knowing how to use his power, the Flash strives to be better and uses his skills and knowledge to newer heights.…

She had been procrastinating, but tonight she’s going to try and finish it, not that she already started on it.
