“I'm just saying cucumbers, bread, and mayonnaise do not seem good together!” Gallus stated to his friends while walking down to the lake.

“Don't hate it till you try it” Sandbar stated, Gallus just rolled his eyes “Ya whatever” He then looked over to the lake where his other two friends were sitting “Looks like they finished talking to Silver.”

“But where hippogriff?” Yona asked. It looked so weird to the three students, there was no Silverstream, they weren't even talking, they were just looking at the lake.

“Let's go see what's up,” Gallus said, beginning to fly over to the two creatures.

Ocellus and Smolder just sat there quietly not sure what to do or say they just both patiently waited for the others to show up.
“Hey guys” They both heard a voice from above, they looked up and saw Gallus hovering above them and watched as he proceeded to land in front of them, “Where's Stream?” he asked. Smolder looked behind her to see Yona and Sandbar approaching as well.

“She's still at her dorm room we couldn't get her to come out” Ocellus explained

“Really what happened?” Sandbar questioned putting the bag of food down.

“Here put out the food then we will explain,” Smolder stated, grabbing the bag of food looking for her own. Once they had their food Smolder and Ocellus Started to explain what had happened when entering the dorm room.

—-

“Jeez she really kicked you out of your own dorm?” Gallus said before taking another bit of his hay burger.

“Ya,” Smolder explained again, sipping her milkshake, “ then she just slammed the door in our faces!.”

“Ya that totally sounds like her” Sandbar said with lots of sarcasm. Yona not catching the sarcasm was very confused. “Really? yona never seen hippogriff act like that,”

“Yona I was-“ sandbar not sure how to explain sarcasm to his yakfriend “nevermind.”

“Well what are we going to do now?” Gallus asked, “Has this been something we learned in classes?”

‘Well kinda, ' Ocellus said thinking back to past classes “I remember a lecture we had with Princess Twilight a year ago.” Ocellus thought for a second before continuing, “She said that if a friend has something going on and won't tell you anything in the beginning you have to give them some space. But you have to be careful with the amount of space you give because whatever they are going through might get so bad and something bad could happen, And if you see it getting worse and you can't help alone you should get an adult or in our case a professor or counselor Trixie but before you do that you should try to talk to them again first but if that doesn't work then you should go get a adult.”

Ocellus finished looking at her friends with confused, shocked looks. “What?”

“How do you remember all of that?” Smolder asked, Ocellus shrugged “it's a changeling thing.”

“Or an Ocellus thing,” Gallus chimed in. Ocellus choosing to ignore Gallus' statement continued with what she was saying “Anyway I think we should give her some space tonight, maybe some of tomorrow and see how it goes.” Ocellus looked at each of her friends and they all nodded their heads in agreement.

“Hey” smolder said “who’s that for” she pointed to a to go box and cup.

“Oh it’s for silver” sandbar explained “it was just in case she decided to join us and needed something to eat."

"Ohhh ok makes sense."

Silverstream felt so tired, she ran about 12 laps around the track and didn’t stop. Her legs felt weak and shaky. She started feeling a little lightheaded and quickly went to the bench where her water was, she opened the bottle and chugged half the bottle.

“Ok” she said to nobody “ I did 12 running now. If I do 12 flying then maybe I can go do 12 laps around the lake! Ya ya that could work” she thought.

Silver still felt so tired but she didn’t care she needed to do this she had to.

Taking one last drink of water she set it down and went to the white track line, she stretched out her wing, got into her takeoff position.

She took a deep breath

1..

2..

3..

And she was off. She loved the feeling when she flew the wind in her hair, the way the wind moved through her feathers. It was a nice breeze feeling she felt so happy when fly she felt so free she loved it.

Everything around her looked so blurry and funny when she was flying fast, she could feel herself starting to slow down and tried to push herself harder. But her wings felt so sore it hurt so bad her wing gave up but she kept trying to go.

Everything after was a blur silver felt her back hoof smash her wing it hurt so back she left out a horrible ear splitting

CAW!!

She started rolling she couldn’t stop herself she felt herself hit something, something hard it felt like wood, her head hurt so bad she looked up and saw she hit a buckball bucket stand and saw it swing

back and forth
back and forth

Till it starts falling back back back til

CRASH

She saw it fall to the ground and smash into a bunch of wood pieces.

“Holy shi-“

——

Back at the lake Yona and her friend were all hanging out. They had just finished their food and Sandbar was telling a story about what happened at his 6th birthday party.

“So I had gotten really mad at this kid because this little brat had just blown out my candles so I did what any smart kind nice amazing gen-

“Ok we get it, what did you do?” Smolder interrupted. “As I was saying, I did the right thing.”

“Told your parents?” Ocellus asked.

Sandbar had a goofy smile on his face “Noooooooo” he paused for a second, “I took the whole thing of cake” he picked up his milkshake as demonstration, “and smashed it right on his face like this.” He then took the rest of his milkshake and proceeded to dump it on Galluse's head.

Yona Immediately bursted out laughing while Ocellus and Smolder tried to hold it back they honestly couldn’t tell what was Funnier, what had just happened or the look on Gallus's face, it was a mix of annoyance, shock and confusion.

Gallus raised an eyebrow at the yak “oh you think this is funny Yona. He then grabbed the rest of his milkshake and proceeded to dump it on the laughing yak which caused her to laugh more and attempt to grab her own and throw it at the griffin she missed and hit Sandbar.

Gallus and Yona were laughing along with sandbar. Then sandbar quickly looked around and saw that a Changeling and dragon were missing. “Umm where are Ocellus and Smolder?”

Gallus and Yona stopped laughing and just shrugged.

Then they heard giggling from right above them. “Oh” they heard the voice say “ we’re right here.”
The 3 looked up and saw Smolder holding a bucket that looked like Ocellus.

Smolder dumped the Ocellus bucket that had been filled with water onto the 3 creatures.

They all had screams of laughter, Smolder threw the bucket as a flash of blue went over it and Ocellus landed gracefully on the floor.

The pony, yak, and griffin clapped at the trick they did.

Right after they heard a loud

CLAW

That sounded like it belonged to a certain hippogriff.

Sandbar and Yona quickly stood up, and Smolder Ocellus and Gallus flew in the air looking in the direction the sound came from.

They four heard a loud crash coming from the track/buckball area.

“What was that?” smolder yelled

“Do you guys see anything?” Sandbar asked

“No” Gallus answered

“Was that hippogriff?” Yona questioned

“Is she ok?” Ocellus asked

“I’m not sure let’s go look” Smolder said

Smolder started to fly towards where they heard the sound.

Ocellus turned into a bugbear to pick up Yona as Gallus grabbed Sandbar.

Silverstreams heart was beating fast, her head hurt even more now than it did earlier. She looked around at the mess she caused, sure it wasn't that big but she knew that if General Seaspray saw or even heard about what she did she would be in a lot of trouble.

Shit Shit Shit

she tried walking over to the now broken bucket but as soon as she did it felt like her claw was on fire, she looked at her claw and saw that her bandage had ripped open and blood was again coming out of her claw.

crap i need to clean that before it gets infected

She flew over to where her water bottles were, she had one more unopened water left so using that she opened the bottle and poured it on her claw, then rubbing her claws together to try and get the dirt off.

that'll have to work for now

She started looking around to see how she could fix it without anybody noticing, she saw the wooden poll on the ground that was usually standing up holding the buckball bucket, it was obviously now on the grassy floor. She flew over to the fallen poll and as she got closer she saw that the poll had been snapped with a few wooden pieces scattered around it.

well that fantastic

"Silverstream!"

Silverstream eminently went into panic mode as she heard her name being yelled from behind her, as she turned around to see who it was she saw her friend Smolder, Who she guessed was Ocellus as a bugbear carring Yona and Gallus following behind them holding Sandbar.

Oh no oh no oh no

As the 5 others finally reached her they all took in the scene all excepted for Smolder who went flying right up to Silverstreams face.

"Silver holy Ember are you ok? we heard you yell then we heard a crash, what happened? what are you doing out here? I thought you were in our dorm." Smolder stopped, she could see water in her roommates eyes, she hated seeing any of her friends cry especially Silverstream. It was then she took in the scene around her, a broken buckball basket and poll, a few empty and one half empty water bottles and she saw a bruise on her face.

"Silver" She said softly "Are you ok?"

"ya I umm i-i I didnt feel good so I went out for a run on the the track and kinda lost my balance and tripped and hit the buckball poll"
Silver thought of the best thing she could come up with and technically it wasn't a lie so she was in the clear. She looked back at the mess she made. "oh crap im going to get in so much trouble for this!"

"its alright Sil we can just explain to the professors what happened, and Headmare Starlight can fix it with her magic" Gallus explained.

"there not gonna tell Seaspray will they?" Silver asked she seemed scared for her life at the thought off it which made the other very confused. "I mean maybe but he wont be to mad, he'll know it was a mistake right?" Ocellus explained.

"Ya ya probably" Silverstream said "Lets go tell her."

As they made there way to the school Silverstream was terrified. Not because of how headmare Starlight might react but that there's a chance she might tell Seaspray what she did, She will be in so much trouble if he finds out, He might even pull her out of the school for the rest of the month! She did her best to keep calm and not show her anxiety.

When they reached Headmare Starlights office they found her and Vice Headmare Sunburst sitting there. Silverstream told then what she had told her friends, That she wasn't feeling well so she decided to go for a run on the track. But she might have over done it and it caused a tiny mess. Starlight nor Sunburst said say anything Starlight simply lit up her horn and teleported her, Sunburst and the students to the track.

Starlight and Sunburst quickly checked the scene out. "there isn't that much damage" Sunburst reassured as he light up his horn, then with a poof of yellow magic everything looked back to normal. The buckball basket was fixed, so was the poll. it looked exactly like it did when Silverstream first got there.

Silverstream had a wash of relief over her they hadn't yelled at her and she doesn't have to pay for damage. "but Silverstream" Silverstreams fear came back.

Oh no what's gonna happen to me I might get detention or suspended or worse they might tell Seaspray oh please novo do let it be bad

Starlight walked up to her with a caring smile, " I need you to be more careful. I'm ok with students wanting to use the track afterschool but you cant over work yourself to the point where you almost faint"

"ok im sorry" Silverstream nodded "are you going to contact Seaspray?"

"well if you feel better and since there was no permeant damage that couldn't be fixed I don't think we need to unless you want us to."

"NO!"

The sudden outburst seemed to have surprised every creature. Silverstream began to fiddle with her injured claw which Smolder took a notice to.

"i- i- mean nah you don't have to im all good now" Silver gave a nice big 'happy' smile to everybody.

Smolder kept looking at Silvers claw and saw a few red lines it kinda looked like dried up blood.

What the tartures how did that happen?

"Ok then" Starlight said she looked and saw the sun was starting to set, "all of you go to the dormitories its almost night fall have a good weekend."

With that her and Sunburst teleported back to the school, leaving the students still at the track.

"See Stream your not in trouble, Starlight fixed it, and shes not gonna contact see spray" Gallus assured "You ok?"

Silverstream looked like she was deep in thought. “Silverstream” Gallus said waving a claw to her face which caught her attention. “What?”

“Are u ok?” He asked again.
Silverstream nodded "oh Ya Ya..Ya im good um i think im gonna head bed."

"Silverstream sure" Yona asked.

"Ya guys im really tired" Silverstream faked a yawn. "You sure your alright?" Sandbar asked, Yes im promise im fine like I said im just tired,"

Smolder crossed her arms and looked at Silverstreams paw again, it still looked the same few red marks that looked like dried blood. "Sliver can i talk to you for a second y'know alone?" Silver was very confused but also scared for what her friend wanted to talk to her about. "umm sure.."

"Lets head back to the school and give them some space" Ocellus suggested they other 3 creatures agreed.

"but can you turn into a bug bear and fly us to the school" Sandbar asked, Ocellus chuckled and rolled her eyes,
then with a flash of blue she turned into a bugbear and grabbed Yona in one claw and sandbar in the other.

"HEY" Gallus yelled, "what about me?"

"you already have wings"

"so?"

''What you afraid you cant win a race against a bugbear." Bugbear Ocellus smerked in hopes to get under the griffins skin Feathers or whatever.

"tsk your not even a real bugbear!"

"So it should be easier or maybe harder since im faster than you" Ocellus began to take off still holding the Yak and Pony.
"oh I'll show you slow" Gallus yelled With that he took off after the fake Bugbear leaving Smolder and Silverstream behind so they could talk.

Silverstream Giggled, "are friends are funny huh" She smiled, Smolder didnt say anything she just kept her arm crossed and raised her eyebrow. "Silverstream are you ok?" Silver bit her tough but still tired to keep her smile on. "ya im good why?"

Oh shit she is getting on to me

"well you've just seemed off today. You kicked me and celly out of our dorm room for no reason, Then you got hurt, you got really defense and scared when you thought they might contact Seaspray, and to top it all off you didnt wanna go to SCC today with all of us."

Silver bit her tough and clutched her still hurting paw, "well I'm sorry about kicking you guys out of the dorm I just really wasn't feeling well that's why I didnt wanna to go SCC either. I didnt get scared about you contacting Seaspray I just didnt think it was necessary because he is on his way back to MT Aris so having him come back would be such a hassle for him, and he has enough stress to deal with and we didnt need to bother him with something as silly as that."

Smolder sighed "ok well I still have to more questions, 1 what did you eat for dinner?"

"they were serving hayburgers in the cafeteria so I had one of those."

Hopefully that's convincing

I know she's lying

"Ok Sil one more''

Silver Smiled "OK whats up?" She chirped.

"can you show me your paws?"
