Consider // Book 4

The Wonderbolt Academy.

Home of the Pegasi whom will soon become Stars. The place where dreams are either crushed or come true. But, one Pegasi did not know how to fit in this competitive world, called the Academy.

Scootaloo.

She had not asked to join this giant team, she had been invited by Rumble, without her knowing. It was a grateful thing to invite Scootaloo, but not tell her was a different story.

All the ponies back in Ponyville (well, some of the ponies) cried over Scootaloo's death. They also cried harder when they saw her and Rumble fly off to Rainbow Falls. Fluttershy, cried the most, considering she's loosing her daughter for a second time. Well, not daughter. Permanent Resident. Scootaloo was happy. She was going with her new best friend on an adventure to improve her skills.

They flew to the Academy with their belongings in the saddlebag Rumble was carrying. Scootaloo wanted more time with Fluttershy before she left. She wouldn't admit it but she was going to miss her most of all. Next to Dinky of course. When they reached Rainbow Falls, the two quickly said goodbye before they separated to sign themselves in the Dorms.

The Academy had added the Dorms a year before Scootaloo came. They were used so that way the Pegasi didn't have to fly home every night when their wings were soar.

Scootaloo was assigned to the Kernell Hall. It was a three floor building made out of bricks. Scootaloo signed herself in at the Main Desk before she got her key and went to her room. She was assigned Room #127 which was on the first floor. After going through two hallways, she found her room and opened the door.

A mess.

A grey pony lay in the corner of the room on a pile of clothes.

"Okay...", Scootaloo said to herself.

The mare looked up and blushed.

"Hi, I'm Red Feathers", the mare said. "Sorry, this is what I call a bed."

Scootaloo looked at the other side of the room for a clean side and a bed. There was two drawers also, and a desk.

"I'm Scootaloo", She said, closing the door with her back hooves and going to the clean side. Scootaloo realized:

RUMBLE HAD ALL HER STUFF.

He was in the General Hall, which was two buildings away. Scootaloo groaned to find nothing in the drawers except a uniform and goggles. Her bed sheets were white with blue spots, and her pillow just white.

"Welcome to Room #127", Red Feathers said.

"Thanks...", Scootaloo said. She laid on the bed in frustration considering she forgot her belongings with Rumble.

"So where ya from?" Red Feathers asked, sitting on her pile-of-clothes-bed.

"Ponyville", Scootaloo answered.

"That's cool", Red Feathers said. "I'm from Manehattan. Don't worry, I'm not a snob."

"I noticed", Scootaloo said.

"Hey uhm, where's your stuff?"

"My friend has it, I forgot to take it from him", Scootaloo groaned.

"I can get it for you if you want", Red Feathers smiled.

"You don't have too", Scootaloo said.

"Please, as your new roommate, I will", Red Feathers said.

"Fine, he's in the General Hall. His name is Rumble", Scootaloo mumbled.

"I'll be back in a bit!" Red Feathers opened the door and flew out.

"Some peace", Scootaloo said to herself. She went under the covers, and she fell asleep quickly.

~~

"Hey, I'm Rumble", Rumble greeted to his roommate walking in.

"Hi, I-I'm Butterscotch", the yellow colt said, walking in.

Rumble put down his bag, which was extremely heavy. He opened it, and took out stuff. But he noticed some - mare stuff.

There was a knock on the door, and Rumble opened it. A grey pegasi with red feathers and mane stood in the doorway.

"Are you Rumble?" the mare asked.

"Uh, yea", Rumble awkwardly answered. "Why are you in the colt's dorm?"

"I'm Scootaloo's roommate, I need her stuff", the mare said.

"Uhm, okay", Rumble said. He took out all his stuff from the bag and gave it to the mare.

"All her stuff is in there", Rumble said.

"Thanks", the mare quickly flew away.

Rumble closed the door and put his stuff away. On his desk he put a picture of him and his dad from when he was a filly. He put his old teddy bear on his bed, and he looked at the other side of the room. Butterscotch was placing his stuff in drawers very carefully.

"You want some help unpacking?" Rumble asked.

"Oh, if you don't mind", Butterscotch said, turning around.

"Not at all", Rumble smiled. He began folding clothes and putting them in the piles. Sweet Celestia, this colt had more clothes then Scootaloo did.

By the end of the day, the whole room was set up. The two colts energy was sucked out of them. The two went to sleep almost immediately that night.

"So, Scootaloo's in the Academy?" Spitfire said.

"Yeah", Fleet Foot said. "I saw her in the Kernell Hall."

"Let's give her a few days to settle in", Spitfire smiled. "Because were gonna torture her so much, she'll quit."

"But don't we want to get 1,000 Members in the Academy?" Fleet Foot asked.

"Trust me, ponies are still begging to get in", Spitfire smirked.

"What did Scootaloo do though?" Fleet Foot said, worry in her tone.

"She's Lightning Dust's daughter", Spitfire said. "If she finds out that were torturing her, we'll get Lightning's attention and we can get back at her."

"You make no sense Spitfire", Fleet Foot said.

"Cause I'm in a good mood", Spitfire said.
