Today was the day. Myasnik was going to start his new life in this world. He was an adaptable guy, so this may not be so bad...right? Little did he know that he would befriend three of his soon to be classmates. And that their destinies would become conjoined from there on out..

    “Myasnik, you need to wake up and get ready! You are going to be late for school!”

    Shouted Twilight as she knocked on his door. However, the only thing she got back was more snoring from him. She lets out a groan of frustration and opens the door to find him...completely naked on his bed. That’s right, Myasnik slept in the nude, it was really the only comfortable way he could get to sleep. Having clothing on as he slept always made his body heat up uncomfortably. Twilight’s face turned crimson when she saw him. Considering he was only fifteen, his body wasn’t muscular and developed. Though for someone his age, he was rather well endowed between the legs. Then again, most german males are.

    “Oh...my…”

    Myasnik lets out a light groan as he slowly opens his eyes. He sits up in the bed and lets out a long slow yawn as he sits there. He turns his gaze to twilight and blinks a few times.

    “Ah, Twilight. Good morning.”

    He said sleepily. He gets out of bed and stretches as much as he could. Twilight however, was stunned in place and wanted so badly to run and bury her face into hiding. Myasnik looked down at himself and chuckles lightly. Grabbing the blanket and covers himself up a bit.

    “Sorry...I tend to sleep better without my clothes on...should have taken that into account since this isn’t exactly my home…”

    Twilight didn’t say a word. Instead, she covered her face without obscuring her view and rushed out the door screaming.

    “I am so so sorry!”

    After those words, Myasnik heard what he thought to be her bedroom door slamming. He facepalms himself and shakes his head.

    “Way to go, dumbass. Things just got a whole lot more awkward than they already were. Oh well, can’t get any worse...right?”

    He asked himself before making his way to the bathroom and slipping into the shower. Oddly enough, the way the shower worked wasn’t much different than his own world. It was like a mixture of modern and old times with this world. Though he really didn’t mind it all that much. After getting cleaned up, he got dressed and made his way out the door, not bothering to tell Twilight he was leaving. She’d figure it out soon enough. He followed the directions that were given to him last night by the unicorn to where the school is. On his way, he felt eyes upon him and heard whispers. Though he didn’t pay any mind to them all. He was good at not letting other bring him down with negative words. This was also where is adaptability came into play.  Myasnik has been around different kinds of people. He has been all over the world when his father was moved from base to base. Sure, these weren’t humans, but it didn’t matter. His skills worked just as well. All he had to do was keep walking with his eyes to the ground. And he did just that with his hands in his pockets.

    He finally made it to the school. Outside waiting for him was the teacher that taught all the student. She was a tall curvy mare with a violet coat and even brighter mane and tail. She saw him approach and gave him a warm smile.

    “Ah, you must be Myasnik. Welcome!”

    When she called his name, he lifted his head to gaze up at her, when that natural glare of his met her gaze, a shiver ran up and down her spine. She clutched her clipboard tightly to her chest.

    “W-we were just about to get started…”

    She said as she quickly made her way to the door and opened it. This was it. It was time for him to make it known that he wasn’t looking for any trouble for these ponies that were his age. And the only way he made that message clear to most was being as distant as possible. Should any of them mess with him, all he had to do was just intensify his glare and that usually had them back off.

    Knowing what it’s like to be the odd man out, his usual strategy worked. He walked into the classroom with his eyes on the student who gazed at him curiously. That deep blue cold gaze making the room feel fifty degrees colder for all but a few students.

    “Everyone, I’d like you to meet a new student of ours, his name is Myasnik. He is from a land far away from here and is now living in Ponyville. I am sure you will all join me in welcoming him to our class. As for who I am, I am Ms. Cheerilee. Please sit anywhere you’d like, Myasnik.”

    He knew it would be rather cliche, but there was a desk in the far corner of the room where there was most space away from the group. On his way to the seat, two of the student stared up at him with intimidating smiles and glares. However, Myasnik’s glare was more powerful than theirs, he stopped and glared right back at them, letting out a ‘tch’ sound from his lips before passing by them, leaving the two fillies a bit shaken up after that. The two in question were Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.However, three other fillies weren’t affected by that glare. In fact, it interested them more.

    “Alright class, let us begin our lessons for the day then shall we?”

    The class was just like his old one, full of the same boring lectures, just a few different things. By the time noon came around, it was time for the bell to ring. Definitely shorter days than back in his world. Myasnik made his way to the door after all the others left, not wanting to deal with the pushing and shoving out the door. Once they had all gone, he stood up and began to make his way to the exit.

    “Myasnik, may I have a word with you before you go..? You aren’t in any trouble. I just...have a few concerns.”

    Myasnik sighed, he knew this was coming. May as well get it over with now. He turns and walks over to the desk she sat at, placing his hands behind him and standing there like he was about to get a dishonorable discharge.

    “So, what is this about then?”

    He asked plainly. To Cheerilee, this definitely wasn’t a student she has dealt with before. She could tell how he carried himself, that he was smart, strong-willed and defiant. Good things to have for sure, but also not so good in a learning place.

    “I noticed throughout the day, you seemed to be rather..withdrawn from everypony else. And I saw the way Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon looked at you. I want you to know that not all the colts and fillies here are like them.”

    Myasnik sighs and leans forward, placing his hands on the desk and looking her square in the eyes. The mare leaned back slightly and lowered her ears. Nearly curling up into herself, but stood her ground.

    “I am going to let you in on a little secret Ms. Cheerilee. Back in my world, things aren’t as colorful and happy as they are here. I have been the outsider looking in before. And I will tell you now, I will not tolerate it from the others. Especially those two. The better they understand that now, the better the whole class will be. I mean you no disrespect. But I am putting my foot down while I still can.”

    She could tell that he was already mentally mature enough to think logically about situations that normal children his age would have issues getting out of. To an adult, it threatened their control over children like him. He wasn’t a bad student. It’s just when an adult feels outsmarted and out-talked by a child, it’s a matter of pride.

    “Now, if we are done here. May I leave now?”

    He asked in the most polite way possible. The mare simply stared at him with wide eyes, but then comes back to reality and slowly nods.

    “Y-yes, you may, Myasnik. I will see you tomorrow.”

    He nods and bows his head in departure.

    “Take care, Ms. Cheerilee.”

    He said before walking out the door and began making his way back to twilgiht’s. However, he was stopped in the middle over the schoolyard by both the fillies he has stared down earlier. They began circling around him with all the others watching.

    “Well well, look what we have here. Congrats, you are the new freak in town. And you aren’t even a pony!”

    Taunted Diamond, her friend snickering along with her.

    “That’s right, you may think you are tough, but you are nopony here. Just a freak without any friends. Nopony would ever want to be near you!”

    Myasnik lowered his head, hiding his face in his hair for a moment, then a smile formed slowly across his face. With a quick movement, he slid behind Diamond and grabbed her arm, bringing it behind her back and lifting it up so that she was in slight pain, but at his mercy. He then places the tip of his index finger to her jugular vein and stares at her Silver, who stared back in horror.

    “Now, you both listen to me. You cause me any trouble, and I will make your life a living hell. Do you understand me? I know by the way you talk and carry yourselves, that you are both spoiled, arrogant little rich girls who ask daddy for everything you want. So I suggest you grow up. Because the new kid doesn’t take anyone’s shit.”

    He then pushed Diamond away and glared at both of them now.

    “”Get out of my sight.”

    Of course, he was only scaring them. He wouldn’t really hurt them or anything drastic like that. Simple scare tactics. Though maybe he went a little too far with that threat. He saw the pink filly shaking violently as he friend offered her support. He walks passed the both of them quickly, not even giving them a second glance. As he makes his way back to Twilight’s however, he couldn’t help but feel like he was being watched.

    On the way back, he decided he stop by the park that was on the way there. Give himself some peace of mind before going back to remember that awkward wake-up.

    “Go say hello to him!”

    Whispered a female raspy voice in the bushes.

    “Nah, you go!”

    Whispered another with a southern drawl.

    “I don’t know about this you guys…”

    Said a slightly higher pitch voice. The ones in the bushes were actually three of his classmates who had seen what happened between him and the other two fillies. Myasnik sighed lightly and called out to them without even turning his gaze.

    “You can come out. I am not going to eat you, you know.”

    The fillies that were hiding in the bush slowly rose into view with sheepish grins on their faces. One was a rather well-developing filly with white fur and a mixture of light purple and pink colors with her mane and tail and beautiful green eyes. Another had a yellow fur coat with a red mane and tail who looked quite fit. Judging my her drawl, she must have been a farm pony. And last but not least was a tomboy looking filly. She was developing quite nicely behind her tough front, her orange fur with her wild purple mane and tail and raspy voice definitely gave a tomboyish attitude.

    “Eheheh….sorry about that Myasnik. We...are just curious is all. The way you handled yourself around Diamond and Silver had us wondering.”

    “Like I told them, I don’t take shit from no one. I will not be trampled on by two spoiled brats.”

    The white furred filly covered her mouth as she heard him curse and use profanity. Though it didn’t upset her. It was rather exciting actually. He seemed like he just didn’t care what people thought of him. And that drew all three of them into him.

    “Well, if it makes ya feel any better. They make fun of us all the time. It’s something we have gotten used to for a while now.”

    Said the yellow furred one. Myasnik looked over at the trio and tilted his head.

    “Why? You are all three ponies. Why would they give you any trouble?”

    “Well, it’s because we don’t have our cutie marks, We have been doing so many things to try and earn them it just feels like we are going’ around in circles.”

    “As yes, those marks your kind gets on their rear. Twilight told me that it is what represents your special talent. Don’t worry, I am sure you will get yours soon. But if you ask me, you shouldn’t be limited to one talent. That would be boring.”

    He said before standing up.

    “Well, it was nice to meet you three. But I must be off. See you tomorrow-.”

    Before he could leave however, The white furred filly grabbed his wrist. Had he been so inclined, he would have tossed her to the ground instantly.

    “Wait! Um...you wanna hang out with us tomorrow? We wanna get to know you. You just seem like you need a few friends is all.”

    Myasnik looked down at her and then to her friends. He lightly pulls away from her and turns away.

    “I don’t care one way or the other. If you really want me to hang out with you. I can. Just don’t expect me to be an open book.”

    The fillies smiled to him and nodded he starts to walk off and waves his hand to them.

    “See you tomorrow Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo. You three be safe heading back home.”

    “Byyyyee!”

    They all said in unison. But after a while it finally it them.

    “Wait...how did he know our names…?”
