Dear Sister

Scootaloo stood on the hot air balloon, wind rushing through her main. Her heart pounded faster as she prepared to jump. "Scootaloo! Are you sure about this?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"I'm sure this time. We are going to get our cutie marks in skydiving!" Scootaloo said.

"I'm not sure this is safe. This is too high," Applebloom said.

Scootaloo jumped off the hot air balloon. "Wait!" Applebloom and Sweetie Belle yelled.

Scootaloo felt a rush of wind as she was falling in the sky. She fell faster and faster until she crashed on a cloud and landed on Rainbow Dash. "Ahh!" Rainbow Dash yelped.

Rainbow Dash quickly opened her eyes and saw Scootaloo on top of her. "What are you doing up here?" She asked.

"Sorry, we were skydiving," Scootaloo pouted.

Applebloom and Sweetie Belle lowered the hot air balloon to the cloud Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo were on. "Are you ok?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"You are lucky you are a Pegasus or you would have fallen right through that cloud," Applebloom said.

Scootaloo inspected her flank for a cutie mark but didn't find one. "Aw darn!"

Rainbow Dash lifted Scootaloo off of her and sat up. "You know squirt, you shouldn't rush your cutie mark through dangerous stuff like that," Rainbow Dash said.

"That's what I was trying to say before she jumped!" Applebloom said. "Come on, maybe we should rest a bit then try again tomorrow."

Scootaloo sat up and got into the hot air balloon. "Maybe you are right."

The three lowered the balloon to the ground and hopped out. "My wing!" Scootaloo yelled in pain.

Sweetie Bell ran to Scootaloo. "Are you ok?"

"I think I sprained it!" Scootaloo replied.

As Scootaloo cried in pain Fluttershy came through a path. "Oh Scootaloo! Are you alright?" Fluttershy asked.

"She sprained her wing," Applebloom said.

Fluttershy examined Scootaloo's wing and gestured for her to follow. "Why don't you follow me back to my cottage?"
**************************************************

As Fluttershy and the Cutie Mark Crusaders walked into her cottage, the sounds of animals got louder. Pinkie, Rainbow, and Twilight were relaxing by the sofa. "Hi girls!" Pinkie Pie said warmly.

Scootaloo sat on the sofa while Fluttershy went to get some bandages. The room fell silent. "So what happened?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"Raining Scootaloos. That's what happened," Rainbow Dash said.

Twilight and Pinkie Pie looked confused. "That doesn't make any sense," Twilight said.

"Scootaloo fell out of the sky."

"How in Equestria did that happen?" Twilight asked.

"We were sky diving," Applebloom and Sweetie Belle said.

Fluttershy came in the room and wrapped Scootaloo's wing in bandages. "You should be more careful, you could have been extremely hurt. You should stay of your wing for a while,"

Scootaloo let out a heavy sigh. "Great, now I have to wait longer to fly,"

"Don't worry Scoots, you will be better in now time! Just rest up a bit and it will be over in no time!" Rainbow Dash said reassuringly.

Applebloom and Sweetie Belle walked Scootaloo back the clubhouse. Scootaloo sat in silence and stared at her poster of Rainbow Dash on the wall.

"It's ok Scootaloo. Everything will be back to normal soon," Sweetie Belle said.

"I know, I can be cool," Scootaloo said confidently.

"It's ok to cry sometimes," Applebloom said.

"I won't cry, I'm to cool to do that."

"Well if you need anything, you know where to find us," Sweetie Belle said.

Applebloom and Sweetie Belle left the clubhouse to go home and reunite with their family. "Just like Rainbow Dash," Scootaloo whispered as she slowly began to cry.

Nopony Understands

"She's still asleep?" Rainbow Dash whispered.

"Aw! She's so cute!" Pinkie Pie whispered excitedly.

"I hope she is still ok," Fluttershy said.

Scootaloo slowly opened her eyes to see Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy, then closed them again. "Five more minutes, Luna," she muttered.

"What do you think she is dreaming of?" Fluttershy asked.

"I don't know but I am getting impatient," Rainbow Dash said, "Maybe we should wake her up."

"No, we should let her sleep," Pinkie said.

Scootaloo slowly opened her eyes again and stared until her vision was clear. "Ah!" Scootaloo yelled as she jumped up.

"Rise and shine!" Pinkie Pie said excitedly, "We have a busy day."

"Doing what?" Scootaloo asked.

"We're going to take you to Ponyville Hospital so they can check your wing," Fluttershy said.

Rainbow Dash noticed the poster of herself on the wall. "Hey what is this?"

Scootaloo rushed to the poster to take it down. "Oh! Nothing important!"

"If you say so, lets just get you to the hospital."
*********************************************

At the hospital, Scootaloo sat in the bed waiting for the results of her test. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie stared at the wall impatiently as if trying not to explode. Seconds later Nurse Redheart came through the door. "I have the test results! It appears that Scootaloo does have a sprained wing. She should stay home and get plenty of rest."

"You heard it first from the doc! Go home and get plenty of rest! I will be over to bring cupcakes later!" Pinkie Pie said excitedly before bouncing out of the room.

"I also need to go too. I should go check on Angel," Fluttershy said before leaving the room.

"Do you need me to stay with you while you recover?" Rainbow Dash asked.

Scootaloo's eyes widened. "Oh! My! Gosh! You will do that for me?" Scootaloo said excitedly.

"Of course, anything for my little sister."

Rainbow Dash walked with Scootaloo back to the clubhouse. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom were already inside.

"There you are!" Applebloom said excitedly as Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash walked inside.

"Scoots, you should stay here while I go get some food," Rainbow Dash said.

"Wait! Can't you stay here?" Scootaloo begged.

"Sorry squirt, but I have to go unless you want to stay hungry."

"I guess you are right," Scootaloo said as Rainbow Dash flew out the door.

"What happened to being cool?" Applebloom asked.

"It just isn't fair," Scootaloo admitted. "She's the most awesome pony and I can never get a chance to hang out with her for more than 5 minutes."

"I'm sure you will have time to hang out with her one day," Sweetie Belle said reassuringly.

"But when? She's always flying and my wings can't even get me three feet in the air."

"You will be able to fly soon," Applebloom said. "Don't you think you are trying too hard?"

"What happened to doing whatever it takes to get our cutie marks?"

"We will get them soon, but we can't hurt ourselves trying to get them either," Sweetie Belle said.

"Lately it seems like you guys don't care anymore." Scootaloo said as she turned away from the two. "If you aren't going to help me get my cutie mark, or fly, then I am just going to have to work harder."

"Don't push yourself too much," Sweetie Belle said worried.

"Without you!" Scootaloo said as she pushed Applebloom and Sweetie Belle out the door. Scootaloo slowly began to cry again at the feeling of being alone.

Author's Note

This isn't my strongest dialogue. But I did my best. Just thought it would be nice to focus a little in Scootaloo's struggles.

I made a few edits to the chapters to fix some of the dialogue. I also needed to change some of the dialogue altogether.
