I'll Get You

Uh Oh...

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

All was quiet on Saturday. Scootaloo was enjoying some time home from school reading a comic book, while Dash was at work pulling some overtime to help pay the bills. It had been less than a week since the ice bath incident, and she was still trying to figure out a way to get back at Dash for what she did. She knew deep down somewhere that it was her fault. Still, Rainbow Dash had a price to pay.

She fiddled with the pages lamely and started to stretch them in her hooves, noticing that the paper would stretch just a little bit before tearing. Hmm...something stretchy could be fun. But what would she use that could be stretchy for a prank? Elastic bands? No, that was too kiddish. She decided to go to the kitchen and make a sandwich as brain food. Maybe then her gears would turn a little easier.

She got some fresh daisies from the fridge and some wheat bread. She carefully placed the flowers on the bread and spread some jelly on top for some extra flavor. She then got out some saran wrap from the drawer and pulled it, tearing it along the sharp blade and covering the daisies up to put them back in the fridge. Huh. The saran wrap was stretchier than the pages on her book. She looked down at the saran wrap again, suddenly bursting with an idea. This prank was either going to wind up with Scootaloo getting grounded for life, or murdered in her sleep. But that was simply a risk she'd have to take.


Rainbow Dash hated working Saturdays. The cloud shipments just seemed to keep coming in, which meant no rest for the weary Dash. Her wings were burning, she was sweating bullets, and for some reason other pegasi kept bumping into her for no apparent reason. Plus, to top it all off, the hot sun on top of it was killing her. It was one thing to be on the ground working, because then one would have the shade of an occasional tree or cloud to rest under for a moment. But when you were working in the middle of the sky, in full blast of the sun's rays, there was no rest. So, on top of straining her body to almost maximum capacity to pull and push heavy clouds about, she was feeling rather thirsty by break time.

When her break came, she flew faster than a shooting star to the lemonade stand. It was a humble little stand in the sky, made of some enchanted clouds held together to make a nice little area for the hard working pegasi to wind down and enjoy a cool beverage. Rainbow Dash was among the first there, gulping down ridiculous amounts of lemonade and demanding more. Thunderlane was watching in awe, but realized that she needed someone to stop her. "Uh, Rainbow Dash - I mean, boss? I uh, I think you need to kind of chill on the lemonade. You may regret it since there's not another break for the next four hours."

Rainbow Dash didn't say a word in reply. She merely paused from her drinking to look at him with that evil eye girls are notorious for giving the opposite sex. Fluttershy had some competition in the stare department this time.

He quickly fumbled once he saw her stare, and scampered off to find something to do far away from his extremely dehydrated boss. As he left, Rainbow finished her third pitcher of lemonade, and, feeling refreshed, went back to work.


That was the mistake of a lifetime! Why didn't anyone tell her that there wasn't anymore breaks for the next four hours of her shift?! All she knew was that she needed a toilet, and fast. It was as if her bladder was a ticking time bomb, and even the slightest motion her body so much as thought about making just made the seconds tick faster. She was crossing her hind legs in horror and flying over ponyville in record speeds toward her humble abode in the sky.

Scootaloo emerged from the bathroom, grinning as she just made sure the final touches were put in place for her ingenious, if not purely evil prank. It was then that Rainbow Dash threw the front door to her house open in a wide-eyed panic. "SCOOTS! Are you in the bathroom at all?!"

Scootaloo just cocked her head in confusion. "Uh, no, sis. I'm right here."

Rainbow Dash looked embarassed as she realized that her sister was right in front of her. "Oh. Okay. Well, make way, because I gotta go!" She flew through the house, desperate to relieve herself like she had never done before.

Scootaloo grinned.

Rainbow dash slammed the door shut on her cloud bathroom. It didn't make a loud sound, just a firm thud. She lifted up the toilet seat cover, but failed to notice what was awaiting her. She sat down, and began to let her body do its thing. However, something went horribly wrong horribly fast. She noticed that when she began to pee, there was not the satisfying sound of water hitting water, but there was more of a dull spraying sound. She looked down in shock and confusion, and saw that her urine was now forming a loose puddle underneath her, and running off the edges of the toilet onto the floor. In a panic, she tried to use her hoof to punch a hole through the see-through barrier, and wound up succeeding - only to have her hoof drenched in pee. She just sat there, peed, and stared at her hoof.

Her ear flicked.

She then began to think of all the wonderful times her and Scootaloo shared together. How many times they had laughed together, went camping together, and talked about life together.

Then, she began to think of all the different items she could use to kill Scootaloo with.


Scooatloo was flipping through another one of her comic books in her room, when she heard it -

SCOOTALOOOOOOO! YOU'RE GOING DOWN! DO YOU HEAR ME? YOUR ASS IS GRASS, AND I'M THE LAWNMOWER!

That wasn't good. Rainbow Dash never really swore, (at least not around Scootaloo). But, when she did, that usually meant that Scoots was in deep.

And, somehow, Scootaloo had a hunch on what it was about.

Rainbow Dash had washed herself down. Actually, she had taken a quick shower after cleaning up her little accident in the bathroom. She marched proudly up the stairs with an odd calm about her, knowing what kind of anguish she was about to throw down on her little beloved adopted sibling.

However, she realized that anguish was going to have to wait for a while. This kind of hell to pay required thorough planning and deep thought. This made her frown a little, knowing she wouldn't be able to exact her revenge for a week. But, she smiled, knowing it would be totally worth it. She came to Scootaloo's room and took a deep breath.

Phase one: psychological warfare.

She opened the door to find Scootaloo cowering in the corner. "Oh, hey Squirt. Whatcha doin'?"

Scootaloo was immediately confused, as she didn't expect this kind of calm from Rainbow Dash. "Uh, heh, nothing much, sis. Uh, I'm sorry about that prank. I was just trying to get you back for last week! I didn't mean to make you mad! Can you ever forgive me?" Scootaloo put on her best puppy-dog eyes. She figured that if she played the cute innocent sister card, she might bring her sentencing down to a mere 40 years of grounding instead of her whole life.

Rainbow just smiled. "Oh, is that what that was? Wow, you sure got me! I never saw that coming! Say, Scoots, hows about you and I go camping next weekend? Weather's gonna be great, and it'll be in the middle of the woods!" Where no one will hear you scream

Dash smirked at that thought.

Scootaloo was thrown off by that last statement. "Uh, isn't camping always in the woods?"

"Heh, it's obvious as to why you're one of the best in your class. So, whadda ya say? Wanna spend some time with your big sis?"

Scootaloo knew something was up. Rainbow Dash was never this nice to her without a reason behind it. Okay, she usually was, but not after a legendary prank like that one. Although, she seemed kind of genuine, could she have forgiven Scootaloo? She was the element of loyalty after all, so that meant she was loyal enough to forgive Scootaloo.

Right?

"Uh, sure. Sounds great! Uh, you want me to let Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle know? Maybe they could come with us?"

Who knows, she might need them around to watch her back.

"Oh no, I want this to just be the two of us. Ya know, sisterly bonding and such." Nice try, Scoots.

Scootaloo smiled at that thought. She sure did love spending time with Rainbow Dash..."Okay, sounds great!"

Rainbow Dash just smiled, and nodded her head. "Great! Dinner will be ready in a few hours, why don't you go ahead and wash up now, and I'll meet you down in the kitchen, and we can hang out for a few."

"Okay sis, be down in a bit! " With that, Dash closed the door, and smiled evilly.

"Oh, you may have gotten me back today, Squirt. But next weekend, I claim my ultimate prize."
