"Let it those to be known only for their misfortunes. Although -"

"Yes there is one,-"

"That poor soul, forever entangled in a series of misfortunet events, only to make them turn good."

"She does what she can, but hardly enough to help herself..."

As the sound of a phone rings it's alarm, waking a mare from her slumber. She yawned, then groned, today was the start of her college life in Manehatten. She was studying the mechanics of flight. Trying to find out if it would be possible to break the very barrier between the earth bound ponies, and pegasi. It was rough enough finding a dorm that allowed mares to stay, but the stallions were too into workouts, pulling stupid stunts, and other over the top activities they could find themselves into. But that wasn't how she would let herself to get her dream smashed.

Slowly she picked up her phone, nearly dropping, and then unlocked it.

"0-9-8-8." She said aloud unlocking her phone. "Hey Ponydroid!" She called to her phone.

"Good morning, Moonbeam, and today is February 24, 1008." The phone said back. "Make sure you: Go to the club meeting today at, four'o clock." IT reminded her.

"Thanks Ponydroid!" Moonbeam said.

She stood up knowing today was going to be a quite new experience for her. Out of the four ponies in her family generation, she was the only one to make it this far, and to get her "high speed" licence. The High Speed licence is a special licence that allows pegasi to fly at greater speeds, and allows them to fly to place to place without taking a train to get there. It was only allowed to those whom passed several tests with one hundreds in flight school to earn such a licance. Her idle, Rainbow Dash, has also a high speed licence.

Rainbow Dash to Moonbeam was like how one could look at a god. She was fast, clever, brave, and loyal, which made the perfect princess. Like Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash alone with the rest of the elements of harmony all ascended to alicorn states after they unlocked a special box they have in the Manehatten museum up on display for all to look at the special box.

Moonbeam wanted to become a princess, but she knew it wouldn't be a princess in her life time. Although for now she was happy the way everything was going in her life, despite her constant misfortune. It was something her entire family had, but she didn't let them slow her down...too much.

A few years back she was taking an exam, and somepony taked to her, so she had to retake the test after paying a few hundred bits. Something she had planed not to let happen again.

After she was done stretching her limbs, all six of them, she cracked her neck, sighing at the relief of the pain that was no longer there.  Damn that felt good... She thought walking to her bathroom. Turning on the sink she grabbed her tooth brush, and stuck it into the flowing sink water. Then when she was done with that she took a shower, cleaning her mane as with the rest of her body.

"As much as she tries."

"But today will be different."

Later, after her shower, Moonbeam started to pack her things.

"Hey Ponydroid!" She called. "What do I need to bring to class today?"

"Items listed in memory are: three pencils, two high lighters, one pencil sharpener, class text book, and wrench."

"Thank you,"

Looking around for her class text book, after she had already packed her other things she couldn't find it. She stopped for a second, looking back at her phone, thinking if it may of known where she placed it. As far as she has gotten, she wasn't really good at keeping everything organized. Even to save her life, she would end up missing something important.

She groaned looking up to the sky, though it wasn't in view, due to the fact she was still in her dorm room. I hope today isn't going to be like how everyday is... She thought. As she walked out of her room, she tripped over a book. Looking at it she saw her class text book. There it is! I need to stop tripping over my shit.

She bent down to pick it up, then placed it her back pack. Now she was done, and it only took her a trip. Nothing now could stop her. That's how she felt right now. As if she was watched over.

"Yes, your right, today will be different."

"Today is HER lucky day."

Just then she heard another alarm from her phone. She unlocked it, and turned the alarm again. Then she picked up her saddle bags, and went out the window flying like she normally did. Slow, not in a rush, because for once she wouldn't s-

"HELP!" A ponies cried.

Damn... She thought, Might as well, I still got time, if I hurry.

She flew down to where she heard the cry, when she saw a pony looking up in a tree. When she got to see what she was crying for help about was a cat, stuck in the tree. That's when the filly saw her.

"Can y-you help me get my kitty?" The filly asked, tears running down her face.

Moonbeam only nodded with a smile as she went to grab the small cat. Although she she held it in her hooves, it started to claw Moon. Screaming in pain, Moon nearly dropped the cat twice before she hoofed it back over to the filly.

"H-here you go!" Moonbeam smiled, putting her left hoof over her right foreleg, covering a rather large cut from the small cat she had just saved.

The filly put down the cat quickly to hug Moon. "Thank you so much!" The filly thanked, then picked up the cat, and trotted off.

"Ow..." Moon whimpered as she took back off towards her collage.

"Just another example of her kindness."

"In a land that has much of it, she shows no matter what, she'll help anypony."

"No just anypony though, she loves nature as well."

"Just another reason."

After taking into account of her slight, painful delay, Moonbeam sped up. The sky was her limit, and she knew this all to well. After six years of flight school, and two weeks of pony-on-pony training with Rainbow Dash, the sky was the only thing she could reach. After that, space, and that was something for another life. On the other hand training with the princess of the sky herself, was something she would treasure.

Soon the collage was in sight, and saw was the rest of her club. Their club was called, "The Flight Club". Even though she was the only mare, and the fact she was the only pegasus, it made the rest of the group look like something bad was always going to happen. Even while they were looking for members to help with their project that would last well after collage, she knew that the ponies in her club would be her best friends yet.

As she landed her friends said hello, one by one. Then a rich pony walked bast her. She was wearing a tiara, and she was walking with a pony who had a spoon on her flank. They were Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon, two ponies who constantly harassed Moonbeam, as if she was a worthless twig. Sad fact is they actually called her that. Just a worthless twig, and deep down, Moonbeam felt like she did. Her entire life she felt like she had nothing to help her guide the way to fame, as well as fortune, but alas, she knew it was going to be a while before the bullies of her entire life would bow in her presence, asking for forgiveness for their actions.

"Hey Silver! Looky here!" Diamond Tiara laughed. "It's the dweebs for high school!"

"Knock it off!" Solarflare shouted. "You just think that the fact that you're so bucking rich that you can just trot all over us?!"

"Yes, I do!" Silver Spoon laughed. "You all are just a buch of dweebs, and you're always going to fail! We're rich, we'll never lose."

Moonbeam only shot a glace to her right, then to her left before trotting up to her bullies. "You are mean, I hope you know that." She said defending her friends. "But as mean as you are, you only do it, because you are a spoiled bitch, and nothing more then a spoiled... BITCH.."

She turned back to her half of her friends in shock, jaws to the ground, and the other half trying their hardest not to laugh at the shocked rich ponies in front of them. She flicked her tail, and smiled as she turned back facing the rich ponies.

"Next time you even speak to my friends," She warned. "I'm going to buck you up. Now, why don't you run off, and harass some other ponies."

"FINE!" Diamond Tiara shouted. "We were done talking to you anyways! Come on Silver..."

Solarflare pulled Moonbeam off to the side with a smile on his face.

"Thanks for taking up for us like that." He said. "Even though you have a slight chance to get a suspension."

Moon could only wave her hoof with a smile. "No, no it's okay, I like helping out my friends."

"Do we need anymore proof?"

"No, she's the right one."

Getting back to the rest of her group, Moon could only laugh with them. She felt at peace, just sitting by laughing, not caring for anypony, other then her friends. She could even remember the day, they swore to break the natural barrier between the pegasi, and earth bound ponies.

As she was walking home, she stopped to talk to her friends.

"Hey Moonbeam! We need to ask you a question, because you know, you are so smart and stuff!" Chestnutt asked.

She nodded trotting over to her friends. "Yeah? Watcha need?"

"Do you think it's possible to allow earth bound ponies to fly?"

Moon could only think of how impossible it would be, but didn't want to disappoint her friends. So she thought up of a good guess answer.

She nodded, with a bit of confusion on her face. "I don't see why not." She answered. "With a bit of work, some good designs, I think we could enginere something to allow flight to an earth bound pony."

Chestnutt smiled, then laughed holding out his hoof. "How about we work together? We could make a club for collage?"

"I would like that! Thanks!"

After locking that memory into her happy memory vault, Moonbeam made her way to her class.

The day was boring to her. All they did was talk about rules, and why she SHOULDN'T break the rules. She wasn't planning on to anyways, but the day was still boring. She was hoping that they would talk about cool things, but cool things never came. Her Latin, and Engineering classes lasted forever, so she had to redo her to-do list.

Sighing while she was still in class with her friend, Dusk Blade, she knew something was bound to happen. No matter when or where they were. Dusk always found a way to piss off a teacher. It was funny sometimes to watch her friend as he tries to have a good time. But nothing was happening, Dusk only sat there, smiling, as he wrote down some notes.

"Aren't you going to act a fool?" Moon whispered to Dusk.

He chuckled looking at Moon with a kind smile. "Not today, want him to think I'm a good student."

Moon could only laugh, catching the attention of their professor.

"Is there something funny about rule number eight, um Miss...Beam?" The professor asked.

Monogram shook her head.

"Good so as I was saying..."

"Nice one Moon," Dusk chuckled. "We playing it backwards this year?"

"No, I didn't mean to laugh as loud as I did." Moon admitted. "Anyways what are we doing after class?"

Dusk put his hoof to his chin thinking of their future activities they had planned. Although he could only shut in response.

"Y'may need to ask Solarflare, 'cus I don't have a clue." He said. "Wait why did you ask me anyways?"

Moon shook her head. "Never mind..."

After her engineering class ended, Moon got up holding her phone in her hoof. She looked at the small device as it buzzed. Unlocking it Moon checked her mail. The first, and only message  caught her eye. It was from Summerland Healing INC. She rolled her eyes thinking was spam, so she deleted the message.

As she was packing her things, her phone buzzed again. The same sender, but this time it was marked important. She decided to check it, seeing how the sender mannaged to mark the e-mail as important.

Dear Mr. Monogram

Please call this number 1-999-999-9999

The e-mail baffled Moonbeam as she tried to comprehend the e-mail she had just received, and read. Call 1-999-999-9999? What does that even mean?

Shrugging Moon  walked out of her class, and flew home Next Chapter: Oh! My God pt:2 Estimated time remaining: 19 Minutes
