The Story of the Rainbow

Rainbow Dash freaked out as she zipped into Cloudsdale to tell her parents the news. "Scootaloo has wing cancer!" "WHAT?!" Lightning yelled in horror. They both began to cry with Thunder joining in. Rainbow said through sobs, "We...we h-have to save her...before it's t-t-too late. I c-can't lose her." Lightning didn't stammer as she said, still crying, "I know, sweetie, I know."

Scootaloo coughed hard as she fell into Applejack's hooves. "Sugarcube, it's goin' to be okay," she said. Rainbow zipped down to Scootaloo and said through tears, "Scootaloo, I just want you to know I'll always be here for you." "I know, Rainbow Dash. I love you." "I love you too, Scoots." Scootaloo died two minutes later.

The Mane 6, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, Lightning, and Thunder were at Scootaloo's funeral. Rainbow Dash stepped up to the casket and gave a speech.

"Scootaloo was the best little sister I could possibly have. But, now that she's died, I don't know what to do. She...she loved me as much as I loved her and I knew that by heart. But now...I'll never...never...SEE HER AGAIN!" Rainbow ran back to her seat crying hard.

Applejack was more heartbroken than ever. She cried as she hoofpatted Rainbow's back and said, "It's okay, sugarcube. She'll always be with you." "Thank you, Applejack. I really needed that." All of a sudden, Derpy came in and said, "Hey, Scootaloo wanted me to give you this." She handed a letter to Rainbow. It read:

Dearest Rainbow,

If you are reading this I am gone. I am so sorry, but Zecora cursed me and I was so scared that I tried not to sneeze, but I did. Please don't blame Zecora. She didn't mean to get me killed. She thought the potion would give everypony eternal life and she had me test it, but she used the wrong ingredients by accident. I love you so much, Rainbow. I will never forget you, and I know you will never forget me.

Your little sister forever,

Scootaloo
