Luna's night had come and there was still no sign of Ditzy. I had asked countless ponies but still none had a clue of her whereabouts, all I said to them was," HAVE YOU SEEN DITZY?! IF YOU FIND HER PLEASE TELL ME!" and as soon as I had said that I rushed to another pony and another, still no answer.

I couldn't think straight but I made time to get a muffin from the cafe, and yet she wasn't there either. I searched high and low, every nook and cranny of the school. Nothing.

I didn't give up my search early but I grew tired wandering the entire school.

[ Don't worry, she is going to come around but like everything else just give it time]

I walked back to my room, placed the muffin in the small fridge and I laid in my bed restless, unable to go to sleep as I worried over Ditzy. At some point that night I dozed off.

~Knock Knock Knock~

I had awoken from the noise, cracking my back and stretching my wings I then flew towards the door and opened it.

It was Ditzy! But she had looked somewhat different as if she was at unease. In her mouth held mail, personally delivering it to me meant that it was probably important.

I grabbed the mail with my hoof and gave her the muffin from since last night,"Are you okay?"

She just stood there with that same expression. I hugged her hoping things would be better. Maybe all that she needed was some time." I will see you at class Ditzy okay? I'm just going to check this mail."

"Read it here," was all she said.

"O-okay," I opened my mail shredding the envelope because what was inside was far more important.

A simple note, hoof written and surprisingly neatly that I read aloud:

Blueberries are red,

Rasberries are blue,

That's pretty messed up

And my eyes are too.

I chuckled at it and said," You have the most beautiful and brightest eyes ever."

"Keep reading."

Blueberry is my flavor

The most which I favor

But if you were a muffin

Every bite I would savor

I gave a slight blush hearing that line.

Life is so short

We must enjoy it all the way through

I would like to be your date for the Mix-up

What about you?

"Yes, I wouldn't rather anypony else, but now I have a question for you,"

Her expression brightened with joy for what I had said yet showing a hint of curiosity. I cleared my throat and spoke at the top of my head:

Of course life is short,

And soon will come to an end,

But too make sure I enjoy every passing moment,

Will you be my mare-friend?

Tears welled in those bright eyes of hers, actually showing a twinkle from where I had been. She was overjoyed and with a squeal said," YESS!!"  She jumped on me and our lips were en-locked with one another as our  wings wrapped around each other standing still to enjoy the moment.

We shared this kiss for a few seconds which felt like an eternity, at the entrance of my room, in public. We were soon interrupted by a clearing of a throat coming from Lyra.

"Ahem! So I heard the good news," she said.  

"Eeyup, Ditzy and I are together," I responded proudly.

"Ha-ha Yea," Ditzy chuckled," Oh crap! We are gonna be late for English, I will meet you there 'kay Graze?"

"Sure, see you later Bright Eyes."

[Awwww look who has a nickname for Ditzy]

< I think it's kinda cute >

{Pshtt coming from the colts who like Surprise and Ms.Cupcakes, sure pick on me.}

Somewhere in my mind there was a *DING* and a scoreboard appeared :  Kill: 0    Joy: 0   Graze:1

I rushed into my room grabbing all my supplies for English class but yet, I couldn't help but think of a student who had needed it most.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Hello fellow class mates, it is I, Luna, How was thy mornings?" Her volume showed improvement but yet, her speech was still off by a millennium.

Before I was about to answer, I quickly found myself in the only available seat between middle of Octavia and Ditzy.

"Mine was great!,'' I looked over to Ditzy and said.

"Mine too," Ditzy she replied with a smile.

"HUZZAHH!! Thou arth had awoken this morning bright and early to view, the rising of thy sister's sun!" Luna exclaimed still with a little volume of the Canterlot voice but we were getting their slowly. Filly steps, filly steps.

"Good morning class, my name is Ms. Simi-Lee, or you can call me Ms. Simi and I am your English teacher," a green mare with mane of black and curled said as I chuckled from the name's close relation to the word "simile".

"Today we will be having a class discussion and how well you can state your point of views. Basically I will bring up a topic, one will say what they think while the another mare or colt will disagree to it stating their reason why, and if the class approves of your reason, your team wins."

"On each team we will need one of each type of pony, Earth, Pegasi and Unicorn," she then quickly appointed three mares with a pick of her hoof,"You three, Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Applejack."

With a quick raise of her hoof, Rarity had objected to such activity. "Miss, with all due respect, I shall not be partaking in such event,  I find this to be unmannerly and uncouth," Rarity said.

"All right Trixie, take Rarity's spot," Simi-Lee ordered," You three, Vinyl, Octavia and Graze." Of course, pick the three music related ponies, she couldn't pick Lyra?

"First topic, which type of pony has the better advantage, Unicorn, Pegasi or Earth?"

Oh no, I saw her game, she was seeing how well we can keep our bonds of friendship and there was reason why she had picked one of each type, too break up our teamwork. This wasn't a discussion it was a test, A SURPRISE TEST!

[ And I know how to get full marks, all you have to do, is make them turn on each other and seeing the Great and Boastful Trixie is there it would be easy but also keep a calm mind and.....]

"Music like mine can't really be hoof played,'' Vinyl announced," Unicorns have the upper advantage, simple."

{WHAT?! WHY IS SHE ACTUALLY FALLING FOR IT!?}

Clearing her throat, Octavia replied, "Vinyl, my music companion you seem to have forgotten I play the cello perfectly without the need of magic," Octavia tried to correct Vinyl.

" But your music is boring," Vinyl flatly stated.

" And your music is just random noises that goes ~wub wub wub~" Octavia argued.

" HEY MARES, WE ARE ON THE SAME TEAM! SAVE THE MUSIC BATTLE FOR LATER," I shouted.

"Alright fine, music class my cello versus your techno, deal?" Octavia bargained with Vinyl.

" Deal now let's win this thing," Vinyl said determined.

"Great, let's do this," I responded seriously.

" I won't be called Great and Powerful if it wasn't for my magic and no one is as great and powerful as me,'' the gloating blue mare stated.

" Excuse me, but I don't think you can perform a sonic rainboom!" The cyan mare obviously took this to heart her pride getting the best of her," and I don't think you're better than any of us!"

This was good, they had the same problem as we did but we thankfully got it over. Now time to win argument one.

"Excuse me," I pardoned," But I don't believe any type of pony is better than the other as we all have an equal part to play in society. You all were there during my Hearth's Warming speech but I'm guessing you still don't know how Equestria was founded."

The class' focus was now on me, AJ gave me a smile showing that she had agreed with my statement and nodded telling me to go on.

" Without each other we all suffer and when we all suffer no-one wins. We need pegasi, to control the weather as much as we need unicorns for their technical advantages and even though the earth ponies don't have fancy magic or wings, they have the ability to grow and to help for our society with hard work which we don't really recognize as they can't simply plant a tree with a whisk of magic but only with their bare hooves. So we aren't better than one or the other. Nor are we worse." I glanced at Trixie and then Vinyl, "We simply survive as one being equally playing our part."

<Sure you don't wanna become the mayor?>

{Pretty Damn sure}

The class beat the floor with their hooves admiring my speech while Applejack on her side nodded in approval, still being my opponent in this showed she knew what was right from wrong and how we should act.

"Well I think we obviously knew who won this round," Simi-Lee said.

I trotted back to my seat where Octavia was busy in her music book scribbling down musical notes as the war between Vinyl and herself waged on.

Ditzy looked at me and said," Great speech, I almost thought you were losing for a while."

"Pshht, have more faith in your colt-friend and yeah I know, we could have lost if I didn't stop their argument." I looked at Vinyl halfway across the class bored as ever who somehow had taken notice of me and waved her hoof with a friendly smile. I did the same and quickly averted my attention to the board. Why was I paying attention? It's English class, we speak it everyday and probably mastered it. But no, we had to attend this class going over spelling, comprehensions and poetry, especially Shakesmare. Fuck you Shakesmare....

[ Dude I am going to KILL MYSELF! THIS CLASS IS SO BORING!!....Hey where is Joy?]

{I think he is over there chatting with Surprise}

[ I'M OUT! GONNA TALK TO PINKAMENA! CIAO!]

{ Wait don't leave me here I'm bored too!}

I still couldn't understand how they could just leave my mind and contact other sub-consciences. Made no sense but I bet it had something to do with that 'wall' they were talking about.

~Rinnnggggg~

Thank Celestia class was over, probably even more boring than History but HUZZAH! IT WAS LUNCH TIME!

"MUFFINS!" Ditzy shouted and rushed out of the class not wanting to miss another opportunity. I laughed at her actions and flew straight passed her to the cafe.

I nudged her and exclaimed, "RACE YA! IF YOU WIN YOU GET MY MUFFIN!"

And with that Ditzy moved twice as fast, probably faster than Rainbow Dash. The students flooding the halls were in awe as two blurs of light zoomed down making direct and precise turns around corners.

I passed Ditzy and teased her with a tongue sticking out. She flew up towards me straining herself and caught my wing putting me off balanced and was sent rolling on the ground taking Ditzy with me. Bursting through the Cafeteria doors, our rolling had come to a stop with Ditzy on top of me in a slightly awkward position and yelled," YES! I WIN!"

[Bow chica Wow Wow]

"Wow, I wanna play that game," A random voice from the cafe said.

"Hehe alright Ditzy you're making a scene and yeah you win, go ahead take my muffin," I accepted my loss. Who knew she could have flown so fast?

We both sat at the table, my wing around her as she sat close to me enjoying her muffin," Want a bite?"

I nodded, opening my mouth and took a small bite out of the muffin. Damn that tasted good but it always seemed like blueberry was her favorite. We finished her muffins and walked to our next class, Music.

A black mare stood on top of a stage as she moved ponies in a specific order, looking for one certain pony.

"Good Afternoon Miss, sorry we're late." Ditzy and I both said simultaneously.

"Ah, Razor and Ditzy so glad you can make it to my class, my name is Quaver and I am your music teacher. Vinyl and Octavia had told me you had a wonderful singing voice Mr. Graze. Please come join us for a little song. I'm sure you know "The Seasons Of Love" she obviously didn't have time to waste wanting to get to practice right away, it seemed so rushed.

I stood there in the front with Rarity and Fluttershy, me being the only colt I stood in the middle. And at the back was a choir of the entire class which Ditzy had joined.

A piano which was played by the assistant started off in a nice soothing tune, very peaceful.

The choir began:

You know that love is a gift from up above

Measure, measure your life in love.

The song ended as the piano stopped playing its soothing tune.

"WONDERFUL CLASS JUST WONDERFUL! ESPECIALLY YOU THREE!" She pointed at me, Fluttershy and Rarity," That concludes our practice for today.Oh wait! while you are here, we have a special presentation from our two head musicians Octavia and Vinyl"

''Hey fillies and gentlecolts, today Octavia and I are going to have a little one on one competition and we want you to decide which is better, my rockin' beats or her 'classical' music!" Vinyl exclaimed testing Octavia's patience.

Octavia gave a slight harrumph  and began playing her cello, the notes being played were so smooth and calming, the crowd was mesmerized by her talent. The music was just beautiful until a completely different genre of beats were added in coming from Vinyl, the crowd's attention now turned to Vinyl all hyped and energetic. Octavia's slow tone wasn't working, she strummed her cello faster matching the pace of Vinyl. The music performed by both artist mixed perfectly giving the other a boost in sound and tone, daring the other to do better . The fast tone of the music was so upbeat that it wasn't classical nor was it techno but a perfect remix. The music soon died down, artist both tired awaiting the crowd's response.

A loud cheer came from the crowd literally begging for more. We couldn't decide who was better but as I stated before during English class, together we are better, helping out each other acting as one and this was a perfect example of it.

I left the music room as the class had ended, my voice was hoarse. Energy depleted from today's activities of singing, talking and shouting, I couldn't wait to get some rest in my bed.
