Stuffed and CramedView OnlineThe Spadashy Family Season 1:Behind it AllStuffed and Cramed The sun slowly rose over the horizon, the sky's dark purple color fading to a bright red. The colors danced about, the clouds changing to a wonderful shade of white and orange. Two citizens of Equestria lay side by side watching this pure magic. The orange filly sighed, pressing her head against the alicorn's shoulder. Her fur was softer thatn any pillow, and her breathing more soothing than any music. She slowly rose up to her hooves, holding the filly's. "Ready to go home now?" The alicorn asked as the sky turned to a soft baby blue. The filly nodded then trotted alongside the lavender pony. They reached the castle, the crystal gleaming in the early sunlight brightly. The two stared towards the door, slowly pushing it open. A cyan made grumbled, her hooves crossed. She met eyes with the lavender pony trotting in her direction. "Ugh! This is never gonna work!" she growled, tossing down the items in her hoof. She sat with her hooves crossed once again, her muzzle scrunched up and her cheeks puffed out a bit. She gave the impression of a spoiled filly who couldn't get their socks on. "Need any help, Dash? I could if you want to," Twilight asked, a hoof scratching the young filly's mane. Rainbow Dash smiled, her eyes darting to her quickly, she looked up innocently. Rainbow was certainly not the type to admit weakness, but she had no other choice. She nodded. While Twilight went to assist the multi colored mane, the orange filly trotted upstairs, setting her saddle bag in front of her bedroom door. She threw herself on the bed, she sheets nearly flying off. She placed her head between her little orange hooves, then lay on the bed, drifting to sleep. "Scootaloo, please... Help!" A voice said. Scootaloo turned her head, seeing a pony silhouette form near her. She noticed the shape of wings spread out and its long mane. Another figure or a pony showed up behind it. A taller one, looking like a stallion. Scootaloo gasped, realizing who these were. Her parents. She took off, full speed, galloping towards them. They started to fade away, their shadows burning harshly and the sound of screams echoed the filly's mind. She galloped faster and faster, her pace slowing and her hooves stiffening. She tried running, but her body froze, her head froze, and everything around her. She watched the silhouettes of her parents fade, and so did their voices. Scootaloo only made out one thing. "I'm sorry. I am so, so sorry..." Scootaloo screamed her eyes out, the sound ear piercing. She winced then stared at the final remains of her parents who were sobbing. "I... I'm sorry, too." "Scootaloo, wake up!", a voice called, the filly's eyes snapping open. She grabbed onto the lavender made before her, then the other hoof around her idol. Tears leaked from the edges of her eyes then she sobbed. She lay her head on the blue one's fur, sniffing away her tears. "Squirt, what's gotten into ya? You were fine until now!" Rainbow asked, hugging the filly one last time. Scootaloo jolted upright, then memories seemed to take everything positive, then cram it in a light socket. Scootaloo sweat a bit, her wings buzzing a bit. "Oh, uh... A bad dream. Yeah, it was horrible!" Scootaloo said smiling nervously. She wasn't actually lying, though. It was bad after all... Scootaloo looked up at the cyan made hoping she'd take the 'lie', then she swallowed hard. The rainbow mare frowned at Scootaloo who was shuffling her hooves awkwardly. Twilight trotted over, the hooves making a 'cloping' sound on the solid ground. She turned to Rainbow. "Did you talk it out of her?" she asked, seeing Scootaloo tear up again. Rainbow shook her head wildly, her mane swishing back and forth. Twilight sighed. She sat on the couch next to the two, then sighed again. "Scootaloo, if you don't tell us the truth, we won't know what's wrong. Do you really want to live like this?" Twilight asked, putting the orange pegasus' hooves in her's. Scootaloo nodded. "W-well, I had a dream about..... um.. well, my p...re....ts.." Scootaloo mumbled out the best she could. Twilight tossed her head to the side. "What now?" "About my.... parennnnnnts..." Scootaloo groaned. The two mares exchanged glances then sighed. "I was in this place and it was all white. I saw like these shadows of them. I went towards them and they called my name, asking for help a-and I.... couldn't move. They just faded away..." Scootaloo sobbed again, covering her eyes with her hooves. Twilight's eyes filled up and her vision blurred. Rainbow didn't hold it in- she just started crying.... loudly. Twilight pat Rainbow's back and used her magic to levitate Scootaloo on her lap. She hummed quietly to herself, trying to clam them down a bit. Rainbow started loosing her breath, as if she had all her feelings stuffed in a container. She slowly pulled herself together hearing Twilight's humming. Rainbow let go of her tight grip on Twilight's fur, then she sniffed, giving an effort to erase tears. "Maybe... if we tried talking about it more, we'd never have this problem," Twilight stated calmly. The two pegasi looked up nodding. Rainbow was first to start. 'It all started on our vacation, Twi. We packed our things and everything we thought that was needed. Spike was a bit sad that he would have to watch the library for a few days, but he didn't show his misery much. We stopped by Sweet Apple Acres to say bye to AJ, but bumped into Apple Bloom instead," Rainbow said, her voice calm. Scootaloo jolted up. "Oh, yeah. Apple, Sweetie and I had a Cutie Mark Crusaders meeting that afternoon, and we sent her to get the door. Apple Jack was bucking down some apples from the trees and she couldn't come. Apple accidentally spilled the beans on my father's day gift for Dad back in Canterlot with Mom. So you and Twilight helped us make a card. Around an hour later, we took a taxi to Canterlot, since the Ponyville express broke down," Scootaloo watched Twilight tap her chin and swore she saw a light bulb over her head. "As I recall, the taxi went out of control, crashing before we jumped out with the driver. Rainbow carried you on her back and we flew to Canterlot the rest of the way. At your parent's house, your Mom answered the door, letting us inside. We gave your dad the card, and stayed for dinner. He said that he would be right back with mom as they trotted..... outside...." Twilight trailed off, trying to avoid the bad part. "And..... they went in the carriage, getting a seat. The driver cantered out of the neighborhood, as we watched them go by. The carriage driver then turned to see another coming down the road at full speed, and a pony crossing the road. She panicked and tuned her head towards the other end off the crossing, then the one carrying mom in it collided with the pony who happened to be a unicorn. She tried casting a shield spell, but the two carriages crashed into the magic barrier, which caused a small explosion or fire and flames flying in all directions..." Scootaloo finished, wiping her eyes. Twilight wrapped a wing around the crying filly, sobbing, then soon a full-blown cry. Rainbow just lay there, curled into a fuzzy, cyan ball. She shook her head vigorously, trying to unlock that light socket. Her head shook harder as she started crying and Twilight put two hooves on the part of her throat above her shoulders. The mare slowed her head shaking, then the whole room spun, or atleast seemed to. Scootaloo smiled a bit and the pegasus who's eyes were bouncing around her head more than Derpy's. Twilight released her throat, then nuzzled Rainbow's fur. A light knock then echoed through the crystal walls. The silence broke as Rainbow trotted to the kitchen for a snack, Scootaloo headed for her closet to get her scooter, and Twilight went to answer to door. Slowly swinging open the door, Twilight grinned as Fluttershy popped up in front of the door. She blushed a bit, Twilight not knowing why, and then the yellow pegasus smiled back. "Oh, good morning, Twilight! M-May I come in?" she asked. The door became surrounded by a purple aurora, as it opened. Fluttershy cantered towards the kitchen, seeing Rainbow with a plate of powered donuts, scrambled egg, and a glass of orange juice. She turned around, blushing to Fluttershy who looked up curiously at Rainbow Dash. Rainbow spat out the spoon carried in her jaws. 'Uh, I-It's not what you think!" Rainbow said, nervously, waving her hooves, then falling off the stool she was standing on. She got up, rubbing her head, then frowned. "Um, what's not what I think? It's just breakfast-" Fluttershy was immediately cut off. "JUST BREAKFAST? No, no, no, Shy. A professional athlete like me needs a balanced breakfast, not a plate of junk food! You know..... what that could do to my reputation?!" Rainbow asked, her eyes lighting up, large and wide as the plate on the counter. Rolling her eyes, Fluttershy trotted into the dining room, sitting on the table. She folded her hooves, waiting patiently for Rainbow and Scootaloo. Twilight was just taking a morning shower before breakfast, and she'd be out in any minute. The castle was anything but quiet; the sound of the dishwasher rumbling and Rainbow standing on the creaky stool, tossing down loads of food, which made a loud *BANG* on the kitchen counter. Scootaloo, upstairs looking for her scooter, had items tumbling down from shelves, closets, and literally everywhere. Fluttershy, who tapped her hooves in the table legs, hummed a bit loudly, around the volume of an over-sized mouse, which was still quiet. Her wings fluttered (no pun intended) and it beat the chair's back part. Twilight had the shower running, hot water rushing down heavily. Bored, Fluttershy played with her hooves, as the whole world seemed to go *BOOM* Rainbow shoved another dish inside, every crack filled with dishes, forks, spoons, knives, plates, pots and pans, and pretty much every kitchen item and all types of silver wear. Rainbow took out the box of dishwashing soap, then put a hoof to her chin, thoughtfully. "Since there is EXTRA dishes, I'll use EXTRA soap!" she announced, as Fluttershy took up a sponge and broom from the cabinet. Soap and water filled the whole washer in seconds as it turned on. A red light on it flashed, but Rainbow didn't notice. Twilight turned the hot water up higher, as the knobs reached all the way. Twilight wasn't satisfied at it yet, so she held it in her jaw , forcing it to turn more. A screw popped off the hot water knob. Twilight just kept turning it, then another popped off. Using her magic, Twilight forced it again, but the whole knob snapped off and Twilight didn't seem to notice. Scootaloo's door was blocked by bikes, boards games, stuffed animals, and other junk, she tried to find the door knob, but she could barely reach it, anyways, because the door was covered with her things. Fluttershy gracefully swept the floor, as the water from Twilight's shower head burst, then like a hose, water filled the bathroom, soaking the floor mat, nearly drowning Twilight. The dishwasher lock broke away, setting suds and bubbles free, covering the whole kitchen and dining area, where Fluttershy was covered in suds, only eyes showing. The bathroom door burst, sending Twilight and atleast twenty gallons of water into the living room. Scootaloo finally found the door, as her things rolled down the stairs with Scootaloo hanging on it. Fluttershy wiped suds, from her face, then smiled. "Oh my goodness, that was the most fun I've had had all day! So, what'd you do this morning?" Then, three ponies exchanged glances.
Reuniting FriendsView OnlineThe Spadashy Family Season 1:Behind it AllReuniting Friends Twilight lay next to the cyan mare who was reading volume three of the new Daring Do series. Twilight just relaxed, taking a few looks at the novel before her. She felt like something was missing. Dash looked over to her, marking her place in the book. "Uh, you okay, Twi?" Rainbow asked. The alicorn snapped her head around. "No, I'm not okay! I can just.... feel it!" she said, every bone in her body seemed to shake. Rainbow lay a hoof on her shoulder and snickered. "Ah, please, Twi! Only Pinkie can-" Rainbow was cut off by Twilight who broke a grin on her face. "Rainbow, you're a genius!" Twilight said, flying out of the bedroom, leaving Rainbow Dash dumbfounded. "I am?" Fluttershy, Twilight, Rainbow, and Scootaloo trotted towards Town Square, then stopped at Sugar Cube Corner; a place they haven't been in an entire year. Rainbow shoved open the door, excitedly galloping towards the pink mare resting on the counter. "PINKIE!" Rainbow yelled, charging into Pinkie Pie. She grasped her by the lower part of her wing bone, hugging her tightly, spinning around. "DASHIE! OMIGOSH OMIGOSH!!! I'm gonna throw a "RAINBOW DASH IS BACK" Party!" The from nowhere, Pinkie blasted her party canon, streamers flying through the whole bakery. Pinkie saw the other three ponies smiling at her, then Pinkie gasped, her mouth wider than possible. Rainbow rubbed her acing back, her wings sore from the hug, too. Twilight giggled a bit, and Fluttershy caught on. Scootaloo yawned, then watched as Carousel Boutique seemed to get closer by each step, which it did. She wondered if Sweetie Belle would be mad for leaving her and the rest of the Crusaders for such a long time. Twilight rang the bronze-encrusted doorbell, as a white unicorn with a lush, purple mane stepped out, surprised. Her jaw dropped awkwardly, as she rubbed her head. "I-is this what I think it is..... or is my beautiful imagination going haywire...." Rarity thought out loud, her jaw still hanging. The unicorn, threw herself to the floor, the screamed a deafening cry. Clearly, she was unconscious, so Rainbow knocked her in the head with a rock. Rarity's eyes, seemed to shuffle, then stayed steady as her jaw returned to normal. She dusted off her hooves, then stood up strait. "*Ahem* My apologize, it's just that... WHERE IN EQUESTRIA WERE YOU?!" Rarity hollered, waving her hooves frantically, tears leaving her eyes. She ran inside, slamming the door in the ponies faces. Scootaloo noticed that the door wasn't locked, so she snuck inside. The sound of Rarity crying in the bedroom resulted in a fast, heavy hoof-step sound coming from a filly. "What's........ Rarity?" "It's fine my........ just ......return..... and Scootaloo......just ......." "Wait.... SCOOTALOO?!" A high pitched voice screamed. Stomping came from the stairs as they grew louder and louder, revealing a white unicorn filly with pink and purple hair, curled over her horn. Her cutie mark was a shield of a star and a eighth note. "SCOOTALOO? You w-were gone for sooo many years..." "Um, like thirteen months, actua-" Scootaloo stopped as she was tightly hugged by the filly. Sweetie Belle. So long since her name was thought of, and much longer since Scootaloo had seen her. Another hug tightly wrapped around Scootaloo. Twilight sighed sadly, then brightened up as she remembered somepony. "Apple Jack! Thank Celestia, she'd never let us down." Twilight stated as she breathed in slowly. The farm door seemed to look at her teasingly as Twilight's hoof seemed to hesitate on it's own. It reached the door, as she knocked, then a crashing sound erupted from inside the barn. "J-just a second!" The voice called out. Twilight started sweating, then she silently prayed for AJ to have a heart. A few seconds later, a bruised, reddened farm pony opened the door. She gasped audibly, as she stared at the ponies before her. "W-Wha? Ah thought y'all were done gone! Yer back?" she asked with her accent as usual. The four nodded silently, then Scootaloo's stomach grumbled. Apple laughed a bit. "Mind if ah get ya somethin' ta eat? Granny just cooked us up some stew," Apple Jack looked over to the drooling Rainbow mare, who was wetting the grass with her saliva. Apple winced, then welcomed them in. Scootaloo and Apple Bloom sat at the table, sharing somethings that happened while they were apart. Apple Bloom finished her stew and brought Scootaloo upstairs to her bedroom. "On yer birthday, ah made this with Sweetie. We didn't find out that ya left with your family until a few moths ago. So ah saved up to buy a stamp and box to mail it to the royal guards, so they'd give it to Twilight, then you. Hehe... didn't really work out right, but I sure am mighty glad yer back!" Apple Bloom said, hugging Scootaloo, who rolled her eyes. That night, the four had touched the edge of Ponyville, and sat by the lake to rethink their day. Earlier, they had a Pep-talk with Rarity, who lightened up, and the Mane Six and the Crusaders went out for dessert at Donut Joe's, since Apple had already given them dinner. "What should we do tomorrow? Meet Humans? Maybe mine for diamonds? How about climbing White Tail Mountain?" Scootaloo suggested sarcastically, as she sat on Fluttershy's bed. She giggled and tucked Scootaloo into her bed. Fluttershy turned to Twilight who had her muzzle in a book again. "Twilight, time for bed!" Fluttershy said, as Twilight jolted up. She slammed the novel close then smiled. "Oh, uh, right. Well, good night, girls," Twilight said, flicking off the lights.
Sir Taunt-a-gainView OnlineThe Spadashy Family Season 1:Behind it AllSir Taunt-a-gain School was back in session, since it was now Monday. Twilight sent the filly off to the school bus, across the street. Scootaloo trotted, seeing Diamond Tiara, Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, Pipsqueak and Silver Spoon. Scootaloo headed over, as a pink filly took her spot. "Oh, sorry, is this your spot?" she asked. Scootaloo smiled a bit, rolling her eyes. "It's fine, Screwy." Scootaloo replied to Screwball. Her eyes were swirls and she wore a bowler hat. She parents used to be Fluttershy and Discord, but she started living on her own, since her magic was too strong. Diamond stuck her hoof in Scoot's side. She gave a look, then motioned her to come. "Don't tell anypony, but you girls are invited to a private pool party," Diamond whispered. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle smiled, then turned to the upcoming bus. Steam puffed out, and the doors slowly opened, as the fillies went inside. A few other fillies were already on there. Golden Chain, a white pegasus filly with yellow hair, and Crossed Vine, a colt with brown fur and a green mane, much like a tree. Arrow Tale had pink fur, with her hooves a faded baby blue. Her mane was black and hot pink, and her cutie mark was a bow and arrow. Ms. Cherrilee sat on the front seat, behind the bus driver, and the bus puffed off, down the road. Recess came, and fillies shoved each other just to get to the door. Screwball played tag with Golden Chain, and Arrow Tale played Four Square with other fillies. Suddenly, Ms. Cherilee blew her whistle, a huge grin on her face. "Okay, class. Our new student is here! Meet Night Shine!" Cherilee announced, a dark blue unicorn stepping out, a flashy smile on her face. Her mane was pink, and her book bag was most fashionable then any in the class, even more than Diamond Tiara's. "Play nice, fillies, okay?" she asked her class. They responded with a roar of approval. Night Shine trotted towards the basket ball court, then snickered. Apple Bloom run in front of her, then smiled. "Howdy! Mah name's Apple Bloom! Ah lover yer mane, it's mighty neat!" she said, shaking Night's hoof. Night Shine, yanked her hoof away, then stared at the farm filly, looking disgusted. "Ugh! What is that smell?" Night said, covering her muzzle. Apple Bloom giggled then shook her hoof again. "That, mah friend, is the smell of....... wet. dog. Oh, and of course fish! Ah washed mah sister's dog this morning! Smell nice?" Apple asked smiling wider. Night just snickered again. "Uh huh, cool. Now, what the hay is wrong with your voice? Eat too many pigs lately?" Night teased, seeing Apple's ears drop. "We don't eat pig! We take care of 'em and give the love! Where did you grow up, Madam Ego?" The yellow filly snapped back. Night Shine, lit her horn, grasping Apple Bloom in her aurora. She slammed her against the playground fence, growling. "How dare you talk to me like that! Hmp! So much for 'love', FARM HORSE!" Night let go of her magic, sending Apple Bloom crashing into a trash can below her. She crossed her hooves, then crawled out, the other two Crusaders running over to help. Math class started, and Night got the seat next to Sweetie Belle. She took an index card, then folded it into a paper plane, throwing it to the unicorn filly next to her. Sweetie opened it, gasping at it. Pay attention, you horned looser. It read. Sweetie got up, then threw it in the trash, then back to her seat. She listened to the part about PEMDAS, then why they are used, but she started daydreaming. The crowd cheered and whistled, begging for an encore. Flowers and roses were tossed upon the stage as Sweetie Belle herself, picked up the microphone and started her song once more. Her voice rang through the stadium and the lights flashed on her. Ponies of all kind cheered and whistled, as the end of the song neared. She didn't even have to try. The words just came naturally. This was her talent, and that's the meaning of her cutie mark. Her voice! The song died down and the crowd erupted like a heavy ocean wave. Voices once again cheered, and flowers flew, and one voice louder than the rest said: "Wake up, you space head!" Sweetie's eyes fluttered, then she looked at Night Shine, who stuck her tongue out at her. Sweetie raised her hoof. "Miss Cherilee, may I go home now?" Sweetie asked, the whole class staring at her. Cherilee tilted her head. "What ever for? I always thought you loved class!" "Yeah, but I'm having some 'student issues' right now," Sweetie was told to skip Math for the day to cool down. Sweetie had told her teacher what Night did, but Night just faked and gave an innocent look, and Cherilee understood that somepony had bothered Sweetie, but didn't know who. After class, Scootaloo, Pipsqueak, Screwball, and Sweetie Belle had a parents conference signed up for them. Sweetie Belle's mom and sister Rarity came for her. She tried explaining to her parents, Rarity, and her teacher what Night Shine did, but it was no use. At all. Scootaloo waited for her turn, and then stared at Twilight and Fluttershy near her. "Scoots, we're gonna fetch some water and get the papers we left at home, okay?" Fluttershy said, nuzzling Scootaloo's cheek. She smiled, then waved. Something wet tickled the filly's neck. Turning around, she saw Night Shine with a mouthful of water in her mouth, cheeks puffed out. She spit the water onto Scootaloo's neck again. Scootaloo screamed silently, then covered her muzzled with a hoof. Giggling came behind her then Scootaloo decided to find an excuse to hide until Twilight and Fluttershy returned. "Excuse me, Ms. Cherilee, but can I go the the restroom?" Scootaloo asked, getting a nod from her teacher. Scootaloo fist pumped, then as she got up, a voice came behind her. "Um, may I go, too? I'll make sure Scootaloo is okay." Night then got permission to follow Scootaloo, but little did the filly know this was going to be the worst afternoon in her life. In her aurora, Night picked up Scootaloo, locking all doors. She smirked and slammed Scootaloo against one of the bathroom mirrors. A crack formed in it, and a piece got stuck in her wing. She winced in pain, tears filling her eyes. Night laughed. "Aww, does the widdle filly want their momma?" Night teased. In rage Scootaloo smacked Night hard in the face, her magic died down. Her head hit a loose bathroom tile, then she levitate Scootaloo, taking the head band off her head, using it to hold Scootaloo's neck against the mirror. Night stuck her horn in Scootaloo's stomach area, then she cried out in pain, but nopony heard since all doors were locked. Night Shine punched her as if she had some kind of iron fist, then Scootaloo knocked out. Scootaloo awoke on the floor, her whole body bruised, some wing feathers out of place. Night stood before her, grinning like an evil villain. Scootaloo stayed down, leaning on her own hooves, the other hoof shielding her face. "Ha, what a chicken! A dumb, wimpy, CHICKEN! My baby cousin is braver than you." Night said, rubbing her hooves. Scootaloo tried holding back tears. Night laughed hard and loud, holding her stomach , kicking her hindlegs in the air frantically. Scootaloo crawled out, unlocking door number one, then opened the second. Before entering the classroom again, the hollered, "LOOSER!" Scootaloo then made a run for it, dashing down the short five-yard hallway to the only classroom in the Ponyville Schoolhouse. She tumbled onto the carpet, making for her checkpoint at the teacher's desk where Twilight and Fluttershy sat. They turned around, shocked. "Oh my Celestia! Scootaloo, are you alright? What happened?" Twilight asked, hugging the crying filly. Fluttershy hugged, too, then turning her glance to a dark blue filly leaving where Scootaloo came from. "Oh, are you alright? Are you hurt, too?" Fluttershy asked. Night put on a show by whimpering, her tail and head hanging like a homeless dog. Scootaloo caught a flashy smile from Night, which made rage build up in her. "Oh, dear! Did you see what happened in there? I-It was.... HORRIBLE! Luckily, I saved Scootaloo's life!" Night lied. That was it for Scootaloo. She jumped out of Twilight and Fluttershy's grasp, the pounced on Night. "HOW DARE YOU LIE! HOW DARE YOU, I'D SEND YOU TO TARTARUS IF I COULD!" Scootaloo yelled, the whole room gasping. "That's my daughter!" A stallion said from the back of the room. He slapped Scootaloo, then Scootaloo's eyes got teary again. Scootaloo's mind said "No, no... don't let it stop you..." and her heart said "Stand up for yourself! This is your chance!". "No." Scootaloo said, standing strait. Cherilee gasped and the other ponies did, too. The orange filly growled at Night who was on the floor behind her. Night Shine rolled her eyes, whispering something. Scootaloo stomped a hind-leg on her tail, making her wince. "Twilight, you have that memory spell, don't you?" Scootaloo asked, feeling Night Shine's blood go cold. She tried using her magic to lift Scootaloo's hoof off her tail, but it was down too firmly. "Oh, Scootaloo, you're a genius! Of course, I memorized it, even!" she stated, smiling. Her hoof lay on Scootaloo's head, as her eyes turned a glowing white, and a purple orb surrounded the filly. In a flash of light, everything Scootaloo saw was visible to everypony. Night's parents growled, then slapped the filly on the hoof. "See what happens once you get home, young mare."
