Prism and Glimmer
The accident
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIt was a good day until close to the end of the day when brown colt started mouthing off, Rainbow Dash being the main target. She swore that he was related to the little filly who insulted her family. She even have someone check and did indeed have a sister named Raincloud. Spitfire was fed up with his outbursts and insults.
"Cloud Kicker, I advise you to keep your mouth shut. One more slip up and you will be expelled." said Spitfire, glaring at a brown Pegasus through her sunglasses. The colt in question snorted.
"Fine, I don't want to be taught by an earth pony anyways." Rainbow Dash glared at him.
"I told you, I'm not an earth pony." snarled Rainbow. Cloud Kicker laughed.
"Oh yeah, I forgot. I don't want to be taught be a Pegasus who lost her wings to some STD." Before Rainbow dash could react, Scootaloo was in the colts face.
"You shut your damn mouth! You don't know shit!" It could have gone without the swearing but Rainbow smiled at her. The kid could get protective when needed. She was proud she restrained herself for as long as she did.
"Oh, and some little filly will stop me. Go home, kid." Scootaloo stood up so she was right in his face.
"Make. Me." she spat out. Spirfire chuckled.
"She may not be your biological daughter, but she's your daughter alright." Rainbow laughed.
"Yeah, but let's hope this doesn't go too far." Spitfire nodded.
"Alright." said the Cloud, nodding his head. He started to turn around but bucked her in the face instead. Scootaloo was sent backwards. She grabbed her muzzle to see if it was broken. After seeing it wasn't, she launched herself at Cloud, tackling him.
In an effort to get her off, he placed his back legs on her body. He kicked her and sent her flying into a cart that was there for equipment. That cart broke in half, sharp objects jutting out from the wreckage. Rainbow eyed the wreckage and saw how close the two were. She wanted to try and move the danger away, but that was impossible, so they just had to break it up.
Before they could step in, she jumped onto him again, but went straight to beating him senseless. After getting his footing, Cloud stood up and started to shake his body around. Finally, with a great swing, he sent her flying.
The sound of a screaming filly filled the air, making Dash's heart sink as she watched Scootaloo fall onto the wreckage, impaling herself on a pole.
Without thinking, Ranbow tackled the colt and held him on his back. She repeatedly bashed in his face, tears rolling down her cheeks. Spitfire and a few others tried to pull her off him, but she held.
"I'll kill you! Motherbucker, I'll kill you! Let me go, he hurt my daughter! Let me go!" They dragged the hysterical Pegasus far enough away that she couldn't do much damage. Spitfire stood up and started yelling orders.
"Some get an ambulance, she won't last long if she doesn't get help! Get that colt held down and get the guard. Hurry up." Spitfire knelt down next to Rainbow Dash. Rainbow was crying. She tried to turn her head to Scootaloo but Spitfire stopped her. "You sure?" She simply nodded. Spitfire nodded to Scootaloo and Rainbow turned to face her foster daughter.
Six ponies surrounded her, trying to get her removed from the wreckage. When every they bumped the three foot pole jutting out of her chest, she could her hear scream. Blood pooled from around the pole that was jutting out of her right chest cavity. Rainbow knew enough about the body to know that it wasn't close enough to the heart to cause too many problems but was right over top her lungs.
Scootaloo's breaths were short and labored, added on by her natural breathing problem, and coughed up blood on occasion. Rainbow couldn't stand looking at her and turned to Spitfire.
"Go get Twilight. Fly as fast as you can. Please." Spitfire nodded.
"We will be at Cloudsdale hospital in no time. Hang in there, I'll be back." With that, Spitfire was off.

Twilight sat in one of the chairs in her living room, the twins playing on the floor. Twilight had been working all day and was glad for the moment to sit down and relax. Now she was waiting for Rainbow and Scootaloo to come home.
There was a frantic knock on the door, causing the twins to stop and Twilight to put down her book. She wondered who could be needing her at the moment and it had to be important due to how hard and how fast they were knocking.
"Come in." she said with a sigh, not liking the fact that her Cree time was cut short. The doors opened and revealed a exhausted and worried Spitfire. The mare was sweating in her uniform.
"Twilight, you need to come with me, it's important." Twilight stood up.
"Why? What's wrong?" she asked. Spitfire gulped, not wanting to say in front of the children but they would find out anyways.
"Its Scootaloo, she's dying." The world stopped around Twilight, she didn't even notice the twins were wrapped around her legs. Glimmer was lifted up and placed up on Spitfire's back, who raised an eyebrow at Twilight as Prisim sat down on her back.
"Come one, we have to get there." she said walking to the window. Spitfire followed as she jumped out the window and flew torwards Cloudsdale, making Rainbow proud with her speed.

Rainbow Dash sat crying in the waiting room, waiting for the results. Her hooves bounced off the floor while she waited. Scootaloo may be her foster daughter but she was still her daughter. The colt from earlier was on the other side of the room with two gaurds next two him and cuffs chaining him to the chair. His face swollen from his beating. Rainbow looked over at one of the gaurds.
"Be careful, my wife will do a lot more than I did and you might not be able to stop her." The guard raised an eyebrow.
"Why is that ma'am?" Just as she opened her mouth opened, the doors burst open and Twilight burst through the door. Her face was emotionless. She looked over at the colt and walked up to him.
"Don't stop me unless he is about to die." With that, she started beating him sensless. Her hooves came down in constant strokes. The colt was bleeding and looked as if he was about to black out. Twilight was about to bring the golden clad hoof down again when someone stopped her. She prepared to turn around and yell at the pony when she saw Celestia. She ran into the alicorns embrace, crying. Rainbow joined the two.
"Ssh. Quiet now, my children. Everything will be alright." she said wrapping the two in her embrace. Spitfire held the twins I her grasp.
They all turned their attention to the hallway when they heard someone clear their throat. The doctor stood there with a sad look on his face.
"We were able to cut off enough of the pole so we could get her in an MRI. We deducted that pole went through her right lung." Rainbow inhaled sharply. Twilight looked at her.
"Whats wrong? Ponies can live with one lung." Rainbow shook her head.
"Scootaloo has a birth defect of the lung. Her left is smaller than her right and she has troubled breathing when she does hard labour." The doctor nodded.
"She will either need a donor or live on a special breathing device for the rest of her life. If we find a donor, we have two options." They looked up at him, showing he had their attention. "We could go with the traditional operation which can lead to possible death or we could remove the pole, sew up the wound, and magically transplant the organ after we found a unicorn professional." Rainbow thought for a moment.
"Side effects?"
"Only one, some biological DNA is transfered over. This sometimes affects the patients traits but mostly affects their reproductive system. It also makes you the biological parent, so to speak." Rainbow Dash sat down and thought about it.
"I would like to apply for possible donor." The doctor nodded.
"If you would follow me." Rainbow gave Twilight a quick kiss.
"This will all be over soon." With that, she followed the doctor.
