Chapter 4: Mom?

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"Your my mom?" Scootaloo asked.

"I know it's a big shocker, but yes.."

*Scootaloo's P.O.V.*

Woah, woah, woah.

Woah.

Maybe we should start, a little way back to the beginning of this story. Makes much more sense there.

Rainbow Dash was talking to Soarin and Lightning Dust, when Soarin accidently said something he wasn't supposed to.

"Hopefully Lightning Dust will get over Scootaloo."

Rainbow Dash was shocked, and started freaking out and asking questions.

"What do you mean!?"

"Lightning Dust and Scootaloo?!"

Of course, Lightning Dust was silent, but not Soarin.

"Well Lightning Dust is Scootaloo's mom and she gave her away so she has to forget about it. But since Spitfire and Fleet Foot helped murder Scootaloo she can't exactly get over it even if she is alive, considering her teammates tried ruining her life. All because she got into a little flying accident thanks to Spitfire, and permanently damaged Fire Streak's left wing. Misty Fly also broke her snout by crashing into the collision."

Rainbow Dash freaked out, just like mom and I did. Dash told mom everything, and I eavesdropped. Mom told me certain parts, but I knew everything. Lightning Dust, a pony on The Wonderbolts Reserves, was my mom. I thought Fluttershy was my mom, but she wasn't. She actually found me in a box, outside her door.

Lightning Dust found out about Fluttershy at the event with The Pony Tones. She thought Fluttershy was so caring, it had to be her who would care for me. But, one of my heroes tried killing me. Fleetfoot, I could expect. She has a shady background with her parents.

But why would all this happen? Couldn't Lightning Dust care for me?

~~

*Lightning Dust's P.O.V.*

My brother doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut.

He eats too much Pie and drinks too much Apple Cider.

Soarin was supposed to keep his trap shut till after I quit the Wonderbolts. But of course, he tells Rainbow Dash. She obviously told Fluttershy, who told my daughter. Why couldn't this be a happy story? I can't wait to see how much Scootaloo's grown, because Fluttershy is letting me see her. Soarin's taking me there later today, and I'm nervous.

Will she like me? Will she consider me her mom now that she knows me? All these questions worry my head.

But right now, I have to go cry.

~~~

I'm waiting outside the Cottage. I'm nervicited, but mostly nervous. Pinkie would mostly be excited. Don't ask. The door opens, and Fluttershy walks out. A orange pegasi with a purple mane walked out behind her. Was that Scootaloo my daughter!? Well of course it was, who else would be with Fluttershy?

Scootaloo's mane was ruffled and messed up. She had pretty purple eyes, and three ear piercings on her left ear I didn't approve of. She wore a locket around her neck, I guess symbolizing that I'll never have her again.

She looked at me, and wonder filled her eyes.

"Your my mom?" Scootaloo asked.

"I know it's a big shocker, but yes...", I trailed off.

"Uh, hi", Scootaloo said awkwardly. "I'm Scootaloo."

"I know that", I laughed. "I'm Lightning Dust, from The Wonderbolts."

Scootaloo nodded. Soarin just chuckled.

"We need pie", Soarin blurted out. "And some Hard Apple Cider..."

Fluttershy, who stood a few feet away, was teary eyed. I guess she thought I was going to steal my child from her.

"Do you want to, uhm, get some cupcakes?" I asked.

"AND PIE!" Soarin yelled, zooming off to Sugar Cube Corner.

~~~

*Fluttershy's P.O.V.*

I can't believe still that Lightning Dust is Scootaloo's mom. Well I knew I wasn't her mother, but I knew I raised her to be the best. Why did Lightning Dust just come to my Cottage, and invite my daughter for cupcakes? I'm not paying because I had no intentions of leaving my property.

Scootaloo was hesitant. She looked at me, and she saw my with tears starting to fall. Scoot looked back to Lightning Dust, and shook her head no.

Thank you Celestia.

"Oh, okay", Lightning Dust said. "I'll just, go. Nice meeting you."

Lightning Dust flew away, and I smiled.

"Is this true?" Scootaloo said, not turning around to face me. "Your not my mom?"

I cried, knowing that Scootaloo would be mad at me.

Scootaloo turned around and looked at me. She had tears forming. She quickly flew away, in the direction of the new barn. I guess she was mad at me, I would be mad at myself also.
