The first days of school were a little awkward for Ocellus. King Thorax was always telling her that staying in the real form is a polite thing to do. But she didn’t want to listen, she wasn’t very confident among ponies yet, she really wanted to fit in better and pretend to be like others.

Ocellus saw that some ponies were trotting towards her. “Hi” - said a cute blue pegasus with a bow on her head. Ocellus was happy that somepony actually wanted to talk to her. She was sure that nopony would do that if she was in her changeling form. Right now she just wanted to make new friends, and she was happy to have somepony’s attention.

But her shy and a little awkward personality didn’t keep that conversation going for too long. The pegasus filly saw some of her Ponyville friends she knew for some time and decided to chat with them together with her other friends, hoping that Ocellus will find someone else to talk with. But… Ocellus can’t just talk to somepony by herself. She’s to shy. Look. They’re hanging out with other ponies. They left her alone. Ocellus walked in the corner and sat on the floor. She was visibly sad and angry. For sure some ponies saw what happened. But that didn’t matter now. She wasn’t Ocellus - she was just a pony she temporarily turned into.

After school Ocellus decided to go to the Pinkie Pie’s classroom, just to eat some pastries left from today’s baking class. That whore with a bow just happened to be there too. Alone. There was no time to hesitate, that could’ve been her only chance. She grabbed a knife. She mashed it into that filly’s skull. It wasn’t enough. She began to saw the knife into her throat. Sharp edges of the knife making a painful shredding noise with the bones on the other side of the neck. Oh god, was that really so powerful? Decapitated already? I thought it was just a knife, not a circular saw or something. Help? Fuck that, just die already. FUCK YOU. You betrayed me, you deserve that. You want more of that sharp ass knife!? There’s blood, lots of blood. PANIC!? SOMEPONY SAW THAT? RUNN!!!?!?!?

Next day, the atmosphere in school dropped heavily. Ponies were investigating, looking for the smallest signs of suspicious behavior among their friends. The pony who was witnessed committing the crime… she was gone. But who was she anyway? Was that Ocellus? It wasn’t her. It was this ugly yellow pony with long mane and Ocellus was keeping that in mind. She made herself absolutely sure that she didn’t commit the murder herself, her pony alter ego did it. That way she was able to lie about that without hesitating or causing suspicion. In her mind she wasn’t telling lies, it was just her own version of the truth. She was even scared of her pony form that killed the innocent pegasus. Our little changeling was acting normally, not suspicious at all. And that was her goal.

Now, after that unfortunate incident, Ocellus decided to stay in her true, changeling form for a little longer. And maybe find true friends that will stay with her for a little longer.
