"Absolutely not", Fluttershy said, cleaning the counter. "Remember, you have training with Rainbow Dash?"

Scootaloo had asked Rainbow Dash to help her train for The Wonderbolt Academy. She really had been looking forward to this, until now.

"Mom, this is Rumble!" Scootaloo whined. "He's like, the cool colt of the school!"

"And I'm the angry mom of the Scootaloo", Fluttershy said. She turned around and looked at Scootaloo. "Scootaloo, you know I don't break promises with Rainbow Dash. She's looking forward to this."

"Rainbow Dash would let me go if you were training me", Scootaloo sighed.

"Did Rainbow Dash raise you?" Fluttershy asked. She gave Scootaloo a stern look.

"Can I please?' Scootaloo asked.

"I'll work it out with Rainbow, but if she says no then your re-scheduling your little date", Fluttershy said, chuckling.

She went outside to water the flowers. Scootaloo had to do her two chores before doing her homework. She grabbed her bucket from one of the cabinets and went outside. She grabbed a brown package. Scootaloo ripped it open, and poured the Chicken Mix in the bucket. She came up to the Chicken Pen, and flew over it. She poured the mix all over the pen, and the Chickens squawked in glee. Next, Scootaloo had to practice her flying. It was considered one of her chores, because it was that important.

She kicked some clouds, and sped around the cottage. Fluttershy had expanded her property a bit more, about two acres for her new barn. When Scoot was finished, she headed inside to work on her homework. She finished up everything considering she only had two assignments. Scootaloo packed all of her work into her saddlebag, then brought it upstairs. She put on her uniform for Sugar Cube Corner, a grey vest with a small cupcake in the right corner like a polo.

Scootaloo told Fluttershy she was leaving, and she flew to Sugar Cube Corner. She grabbed her keys to get inside the 'Staff' area. Pinkie Pie greeted her. Scootaloo went up to the cashier, and waited for a first customer on her shift.

Not a lot of ponies came to Sugar Cube Corner that day. Just the typical ponies. Derpy, Rarity, and so on. But the not typical pony came in today, Rumble.

"Hey", he greeted.

"Uhm hey, Rumble", Scootaloo freaked out.

"Can I get a Cupcake Pie?" Rumble asked.

"Uh, sure", Scootaloo said. She went to the cooking room in the back and got a Cupcake Pie from the display. She brought it back to the Cashier and placed it on the counter.

"Five bits", Scoot said, opening up the cashier.

Rumble placed four bits on the table, then flew off.

Scootaloo counted only four, and she looked up. No Rumble.

Maybe he was in a hurry...

She finished up her shift. It was dusk when she finished up her job, so she went home on the path in the dark. But she was stopped my somepony, odd. The pony put their hoof out, making Scootaloo stop.

"Fly the greatest", the pony whispered.

Scootaloo narrowed her eyes, trying to figure out who was the pony underneath the grey hood.

"Feed the slowest", the pony whispered.

"Eh, thanks for the advice", Scootaloo said. She quickly flew over the pony, but the mysterious figure teleported in front of Scootaloo.

"Do you know who I am?" the pony asked.

"Don't know, don't care", Scootaloo flew up once more. But, the pony flew up with Scootaloo. The pony breathed, very loudly. Like they had a cold or something.

"I have spent countless moons trying to escape for you", the pony hissed.

"Don't care", Scootaloo rolled her eyes. "Can I go now?"

The pony stook their hoof out in a signal to go. Scootaloo flew away, but she heard a chant that had faded out in her school.

The very chant that had caused Scootaloo rage.

"Scoot, scoot, Scootaloo", the pony chuckled. Scootaloo turned around, and stared at the pony whom had ruined Fluttershy's life.

Princess Twilight Sparkle. Her horn was a flashlight for her in the night, shining over the grass below. She removed her hood, revealing cuts on her cheek.

"You remember me as the murderer, don't you?" Twilight grinned. The light from her horn cast on her face, making her seem surreal.

"Why do you want to hurt me?" Scootaloo yelled. "You already hurt my mom."

"I'm not even here to hurt you, poor Scootaloo", Twilight said, pouting.

"Go away", Scootaloo flapped away toward the cottage, as Twilight stayed flying in the same spot, watching Scootaloo's every movement. She teleported away, to an unknown place.

"Twilight escaped Canterlot Prison!?" Fluttershy yelled in the night. "How!?"

"She said she's been trying for many moons", Scootaloo repeated for the fifth time.

"What if she's trying to kill you again!? Or, what if she wants to get back at me?" Fluttershy ran around the kitchen in major thought.

"Mom it's fine", Scootaloo said, reaching out to hug Fluttershy. But, Fluttershy refused.

"Twilight killed you Scootaloo", Fluttershy said. "She's a Princess. of Magic. She can teleport, she can fly, she can do anything that her magic desires. And this worries me because she went to Jail considering Princess Celestia found out about Twilight killing you. And I'm nervous she's out to get you and the rest of us."

"Mom, I don't know how she found out where I work", Scootaloo said.

"She knows EVERYTHING", Fluttershy said, beginning to cry.

"It's okay mom", Scootaloo said, pulling Fluttershy into a hug.

"I love you Scootaloo", Fluttershy said, hugging back.

"I love you too mom", Scootaloo said.

Fluttershy released, the went to her room and closed the door. Scootaloo went upstairs, and fell asleep on top of her bed.
