Chapter 3 This is Cherry Blossom.

The next day Apple went to school, showing all of his friends his new cutie mark. They were all talking excitedly when their teacher Poppy Seed, a golden orange mare walked in. "Good morning class." She said. "We have a new student with us today, her name is Cherry Blossom and she just moved here from Fillydelphia."

In walked a beautiful red mare with a light pink mane and tail. She didn't have her cutie mark yet." I hope you can all make her feel welcome." Said poppy seed. She turned towards Cherry Blossom, "There's an empty seat next to Apple." Cherry Blossom walked nervously towards the desk and sat dow.n. Apple turned to her "Hi Cherry Blossom, I'm Apple,it's nice to meet you." She smiled and said "Hi Apple it's nice to meet you too...

"Alright Class it's lunch time." Poppy Seed said as the bell rang. Apple trotted outside with his friends, and headed towards their usual spot for eating lunch. He opened his lunch box and was about to eat his oranges when he heard "blank flank!" "Blank flank!" "Cherry blossom is a Blank flank." He whipped his head around to see his class mates filthy rich and silver platter taunting the new student. Cherry Blossom was cowering trying to hold back tears. The ruthless colts continued to tease her. Apple Tree had taught Apple to always stand up to bullies.

Taking a deep breath he turned around. "That's enough, filthy rich and silver platter!" Filthy Rich spun around "what did you say rotten apple?" "I said thats enough, there is no reason to treat anypony that way!" Filthy Rich glared at Apple. " She's a blank flank!" "So what?" Said Apple. "We were all blank flanks at one point, she just hasn't found her special talent yet!" "Your asking for it, rotten apple!" Filthy said walking towards Apple. "Yeah" echoed silver platter. " lay one hoof on me and i will tell miss poppy seed." Said apple. " there's no need my little pony." Said a voice behind him. He turned to see poppy seed. "I just saw the whole thing!" "I am very proud of you for sticking up for our new student" "as for you two..." She turned back to filthy rich and silver platter. " i need to talk to you inside right now, I will be calling both your parents." "But, But..." The two colts tried to argue. "No buts, let's go."

As the three walked away apple turned to cherry blossom. "Are you okay Cherry blossom?" "I am now." She said wiping her eyes. "Thanks for standing up for me." "Your welcome cherry blossom, nopony should be bullied. She smiled up at apple "you can call me cherry" "alright cherry," apple smiled back. "Do you wanna be friends?"
