Cheating the Cycle of Life- A Padded Pony Collab

“Swirly? Swirly, are you okay?” Rainbow Dash’s father asked, snapping Swirly Sweet out of her trance.

Swirly Sweet had been dreading discovering the source of the overflowing toilet, certain that it was going to end with her reputation as a foalsitter and toilet trainer in shambles, all because of one mishap she had never intended to let happen.

But she tried her best to put on a brave face. Maybe, it wouldn’t end the way she thought it would. Perhaps, she was just imaging the worst possible outcome. But deep down, she found that highly unlikely. “Why did Rainbow Dash have to tell her father about the accidental flushing? It was suppose to stay our little secret.” she thought to herself, as she reluctantly turned the knob on the bathroom door.

Swirly Sweet and Rainbow Dash’s father walked into the bathroom, trying their best to not be too grossed out at the fact that they were stepping in toilet water.

“Rainbow Dash, where are you?” Rainbow Dash’s father called nervously, hoping that he would hear a response.

Much to the surprise of Swirly Sweet (who had feared the worst) Rainbow Dash replied in a high pitched squeak “Over here.”

Swirly Sweet and Rainbow Dash’s father walked to the source of the reply, and found Rainbow Dash hiding behind the toilet, looking rather embarrassed and ashamed of something.

Swirly Sweet breathed a much needed sigh of relief, while Rainbow Dash’s father tried his best to look angry without frightening his daughter.

“What happened here?!” he asked in a furious tone of voice “Why is the toilet overflowing?! What did you do?!”

Rainbow Dash blushed, and tried to look small. She even began to curl up into a ball, afraid of what her father would do if she dared respond with any sort of answer.

Her worst fears no longer confirmed, Swirly Sweet took a deep breath and said to Rainbow Dash’s father “Let me handle it, the message comes across a bit better if you don’t shout at her. It was probably just an accident.”

“That may be, but look at the damage it’s caused!” Rainbow Dash’s father said angrily “It’ll take a long time to clean up, and I’m probably going to have to have the tiles replaced!”

“We can worry about that later, for right now, we need to find out what Rainbow Dash did to cause all of this,” Swirly Sweet explained, then she turned to Rainbow Dash, and in a gentle and coaxing tone she asked “Rainbow Dash, what did you do to cause the toilet to overflow? Your father and I were very worried that something have happened to you.”

“I-it was an accident, I swear!” Rainbow Dash insisted “I knew I had to go potty, so I told my mommy and she said I could go on my own if it was in the house! I mostly made it into the toilet, fighting off the monster! But some of it got into my pull-up. Then I figured, if toilet can take away pee pee and poo poo, it could take it away when it was inside a pull-up. But it didn’t work.”

“So, you flushed your pull-up, because it was dirty, and that’s what caused the toilet to overflow?” Swirly Sweet asked, Rainbow Dash nodded in shame.

“I see it, I’ll get it out.” Rainbow Dash’s father said, and reluctantly dipped a hoof into the bowl to pull out the pull-up. Upon doing so, the water in the toilet began to recede, and disappear down the drain. But by that point, the damage was already done.

Swirly Sweet, meanwhile, looked Rainbow Dash in the eyes and said as seriously as she could (without upsetting Rainbow Dash too much) “Rainbow Dash, that was a VERY foolish thing to do! You could’ve broken the toilet!”

“I sorry, I won’t do it again!” Rainbow Dash pleaded, she hated being scolded.

“I’m sure you’ve learned your lesson, and know now that you don’t flush anything down the toilet that doesn’t normally go into it,” Swirly Sweet replied “There’s nothing wrong with admitting you had an accident. I told you before, that it’s perfectly normal for ponies your age to have them every now and then. What you should’ve done, was tell either your mommy, your daddy, or me, and we would’ve gotten you cleaned up and changed. Instead, you tried to cover up the truth, and in the process you caused a great deal of damage to the bathroom floor. And on top of that, you gave your father and I quite the scare.”

“That’s putting it mildly.” Rainbow Dash’s said in a grumpy tone of voice.

“And for that, you must be punished,” Swirly Sweet said seriously “I’ll help clean you up, but then you are to go to your room. It will be up to your mom and dad to decide what sort of punishment you will receive. And I hope that, in the future, you will be more careful.”

Rainbow Dash sighed, as she saw the unhappy looks on her father and Swirly Sweet’s faces, those looks were enough to tell her that she had screwed up big time. “So much for being a hero.” she thought unhappily to herself.

Swirly Sweet quickly cleaned Rainbow Dash’s butt with some toilet paper, then saw to it that she was changed into a clean pull-up, before she was sent to her room to await punishment.

That left both Swirly Sweet, and Rainbow Dash’s father to clean up the mess that had resulted from the overflowing toilet.

“Well, at least she didn’t get flushed again,” Swirly Sweet thought to herself, as she retrieved some towels “Rainbow Dash is becoming quite the hoofful. At this rate, I think I’m going to have to start putting out ads for helpers, I can’t keep up with all these crazy events.”

Rainbow Dash’s father, meanwhile, was wondering just what it was that Swirly Sweet had been so worried about earlier. Surely, it wasn’t anything really crazy, such as her being assaulted and beaten up, was it?
