Kiss The Chef
Chapter 4
Previous Chapter Next Chapter"So, like Principal Celestia said, welcome to canterlot high. I’m Sunset Shimmer by the way” Sunset said as she said she extended her hand to Mise.
“Nice to meet you, I’m Mise en Place, or Mise, but I’m sure you already know that.” Mise said shaking her hand.
“Yeah, that was quite the entrance. So your uncle just gave that to, just like that?” Sunset asked.
“Well I like add a little excitement to my life, and to answer your question yes he did.” Mise replied.
“Ok, well how about we get this tour started.” Sunset said as she led mise through the front door
“Sounds good to me, let's go.” Mise said as he followed behind sunset.
As Sunset was showing Mise the various classrooms and features of the school, she couldn’t help but notice his mood had dropped a bit from when he first pulled up at the school.
‘I wonder what’s up with him, he seemed fine a few minutes ago. Maybe I’ll ask him at lunch.’ Sunset thought in the back of her mind as she lead Mise through the school.
“And this is the music room, my friends and I use it a lot for practice and to work on new songs." Sunset said. She opened the door to the room.
Inside was the same group Mise met only short time ago, except this time he wasn’t scaring the crap out of them and they weren’t pissed off about it.
“Mise, I’d like you to meet Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie pie, Fluttershy, Twilight, Adagio, Aria, Sonata." Sunset as Mise nodded at the girls "and obviously you aslready know Vinyl, and Octavia. but i'd also like you to meet Soul, Clyde, Swift, Rivet, Night, Warhawk, Treble, Punk, Daemon, Arrow, and Zero.” Sunset said as she went around the room and pointing out all of her friends.
“It’s nice to meet you all, and sorry about earlier, I meant to leave early so something like that wouldn’t happen, that and because my tank only goes like 20 mph.” Mise said as he addressed the group.
“So Mise, now that you’re out classmate do me and Octavia still have to call you chef Mise?” Vinyl asked
“You only need to call me that when I’m working, but if we’re just hanging out at school or elsewhere, you can just call me Mise.” Mise answered
“Well what about the rest of us, what should we call you?” Soul asked as he spoke for everyone else
“You can all do the same, unless you want to call me chef Mise, that’s up to you.” Mise replied.
Just then the ball rang signaling the next period to start
“Well there’s the bell, we’ll see you at lunch?” Sunset asked
“Definitely, I’ll see you then.” Mise said as he made his way to the door the head to class
After several class periods had passed, most consisting of boring segments where everyone is taking notes but not before the teacher has Mise introduce himself to the class, the gang finds themselves at lunch.
As Mise made his way into the cafeteria he got in line, got his food, and tried to find Sunset and the gang
“Hey Mise, if you’re looking for our friends, they’re sitting outside since such a nice day out.” Artemis said as he walked up next to Mise with a tray of food in his hand.
“Oh, well that explains a lot, alright lead the way.” Mise replied as he followed Artemis outside to where the gang was eating lunch.
“There you two are, we were wondering when you’d show up.” Twilight said
“Yeah, we’ve been waiting FOREVER.” Rainbow dash said in an over dramatic tone.
“Dash, we’ve only been out here for five minutes.” Rivet said as he rolled his eyes
“Anyway, have a seat and stay a while, darling” Rarity said she invited mise to sit down with them.
“Thanks, oh hold on, I have to grab something from my tank, I’ll be right back.” Mise said as he ran off
Once Mise got to his tank, he got in and opened a wooden chest in the back storage compartment. Inside was an old looking bottle with
some kind of amber liquid in it.
He took it out and poured a little into a small metal container and put the rest back and ran back to the group.
“Alright, I’m back” Mise said as he sat back down with the group.
“Did you find what it was you wanted.” Swift said in between bites
“I did, but you can’t tell anyone I have it. It’s not really supposed to be on school grounds.” Mise said looking at the group
“Oh really? and what might that be?” Warhawk asked suspiciously
“oh nothing, just my little aramilite...." mise said sarcastically with a smile as he pulled out the bottle "but seriously, I just brought some of my whiskey I keep on me.” Mise said as he tried to keep the situation under control
“Whiskey, why do you have whiskey? I know chefs use alcohol to cook but you’re not cooking and I’m pretty sure they don’t use whiskey either.” Octavia said.
“Well it stems from the reason as to why I’m here in canterlot in the first place.” Mise said with a hint of hesitation
“Which would be what exactly?” Punk said suspicious of the situation. mise was silent for a second as he spoke in his head 'I knew this would happen eventually, just not yet, damn it, and I can't tell anyone about....them....' mise finally broke his silence as he made an audiable sigh a looked to the group
“back before I came here to Canterlot, I lived in the city of manehatten. I used to work in my parent’s restaurant and one day I was just getting ready to clean up after a long day of cleaning and organizing the basement storage. As I was heading back down to turn off lights I felt someone grab my shoulder.
I turned around and saw that it was a long time family friend, Crystal Waters, a person who also had a crush on at the time, something that, unbeknownst to me, she was well aware of.
She lured me into the kitchen and asked me to help her with something, to which I more than obliged. When we were both in the kitchen, crystal closed the door behind us. She then proceeded to try and seduce me.It proved not difficult at all. But just as we were about to go all in, the door suddenly swung open to reveal our parents. Crystal quickly threw me to the ground and under the bus, falsely accusing me of trying to rob her as well as have my way with her.
I was so shocked at was happening I didn’t notice that the cops were already called, I was swiftly taken down to the police station for questioning and held on suspicion. I was later released and the charges dropped as well as erased from my record, but by then the damage had been done and my parents made arrangements to pull me out of school and send me to live with my uncle here in canterlot. And after that I took up drinking to try and cope with the pain of what she did to me.” Mise explained before taking a swig of whiskey from his flask
Everybody in the group was silent after what mise had just told them. They had looks of anger, sadness, sympathy, and just genuine shock
Mise was now visibly depressed and angered as he thought about how the person he had known for so many years turned on him and in turn ruined his life back home.
“Mise, we didn’t know. I’m sorry that happened to you.” Octavia said as she went over to mise to try and calm him down.
“It’s not your fault, it’s not any of yours faults. It my fault for being so naïve and the fault of that..that..bitch.” Mise said as he took another sip of whiskey, this smaller than the last.
“Mise calm down, please, there’s no need to beat yourself over this.” Twilight said
Everyone else gave their two cents in, which seemed to calm Mise down.
“Thanks guys, I needed to get this out of my system. And don’t worry about me going ape shit on anyone with my tank now that you know I have booze in there.” Mise said, now much calmer than before.
“Well that’s good to know, I know some of us were worried you might get mad and blow us all to hell.” Treble said
“Yes, well, a wise man once told me this: ‘only when mosquito lands on your testicles, do you truly learn to solve problems without violence’.” Mise said in a fake Chinese accent as he stroked his goatee.
Everybody started laughing and having a good time. The rest of the day followed suit, without much incident. That is until Mise got back home, to find he had a not-so-welcome guest, someone who he never wanted to see again.
