Maybe // Book 3

Lightning Dust sat at a table in the cafeteria of the Wonderbolt Academy. Her only secret had been revealed, and all the ponies at the Academy knew about it. It was an 'Academy Record' for a rumor to spread around so fast. But the rumor was true.

Many of the ponies ignored Lightning Dust. There was no reason, she gave away her child to keep her place on the team.

Maybe considering she let Scootaloo die, that they hate Lightning.

Death is powerful.

"Scootaloo?" Fluttershy knocked of Scoot's door.

"What?" Scootaloo said through the door.

"Are you okay?" Fluttershy asked.

"Well to find out one day your not my real mom, and the next day Twilight is trying to aggravate me, life is just great for me mom. I mean, Fluttershy."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"There's already enough said."

"Do you want a Grass Sandwich?"

"Why, trying to make me feel better?"

Scootaloo laid on her bed, staring at the ceiling.

"Scootaloo please, you can't just come out your room for school and the bathroom."

"I'll make it work", Scootaloo said. She pulled the covers over her body, and she zoned out until this was said.

"If I told you, you wouldn't love me", Fluttershy sniffled. "And, I loved you with my heart."

"You could've told me who was my mom", Scootaloo snapped.

"I didn't know who your mom was!" Fluttershy yelled.

"So, Scootaloo and Lightning Dust know?" Spitfire snapped.

"Afraid so", Fleet Foot said. "Misty Fly has been spying on them."

"This plan hasn't been working", Spitfire groaned.

"I don't know what to do", Fleet Foot muttered.

"Your going to go and invite Scootaloo and her little boyfriend", Spitfire barked.

"Why him?" Fleet Foot asked.

"Let's just say, he'll do what we say for Scootaloo", Spitfire smirked. She grabbed her uniform and slipped it on.

"He's just a School Colt", Fleet Foot said, slipping on her purple sunglasses.

"Scootaloo!" Dinky waved outside. It was Friday finally, and Scootaloo was done with school already.

Next to Dinky, was Babs.

"Hiya", Babs said, kind of aggressive.

Scootaloo didn't greet back, she directed her attention to Dinky.

"I heard Rumble has some special news for you", Dinky winked.

"What news?" Scootaloo asked.

"You'll see", Dinky smirked. Babs looked at the ground.

You could hear girls talking from outside the school. Walking out, was Rumble. About four mares surrounded him, and Scootaloo just watched in disgust. Rumble walked over, but the mares still followed him like he was Princess Celestia.

"Hey Scootaloo", Rumble said. "Can I talk to you?"

Scootaloo got worried. "Uh, yeah sure", she said.

Rumble signaled with his wing for her to follow. He flew away, and Scootaloo followed after him.

Babs just watched.

He will notice me one day, but not when that dumb excuse for a mare Scootaloo.

And so, Babs walked home in silence with no one, just herself and her evil thoughts.

Death is powerful.
