My Big Human Brother

Chapter 5: Scootaloo

I wiped my sweat off my forehead, and smiled at today's work. Will was really, really helpful today! He was almost better than Applejack! Again, almost. I hugged him as he sighs in relief. "You know brother, I bet you're cutie mark's apple-pickin'!" I said. He tilts his head in thought.

"Hmm, maybe, speaking of cutie mark's, what does your cutie mark mean anyway?" He asks.

"Well, I'm good at helping others find their talent! Do you have a cutie mark?" I ask.

"No, humans usually don't. I think we just usually do what we think we're good at," he answers.

"Hmm, what do you think your talent is?" I ask. He shrugs.

"I don't know really, maybe it's just picking apples?" He says. I look up in thought. When you really think about it, to be good at apple-picking, you just have to get into it.

"No, maybe it's something else," I say.

"Like what?" He asks. I sat down a minute.

This is going to be really hard, thus why I called the elite! The masters! The champions upon champions of finding talent! That's what I call ourselves anyway. Scootaloo looks in awe at my brother, smiling excitedly. Sweetiebelle kept looking at his hands quizzically. "You look so cool!" Scootaloo says.

"I thought you guys knew what I look like?" Will says.

"Brother, you never really come out that much, you usually just pick all the apples, get some lunch or dinner, and go back out to the field," I said.

"Oh, well, Scootaloo was it? I'm not exactly the coolest, but yeah I guess I'm cool," he says, rubbing the back of his head. I take a good look at my brother. He has on some slightly ripped jeans, a short sleeve, red and black plaid collared shirt, sandals, and a straw hat was strapped to his back. His skin had tanned a little more, and his eyes were still ocean blue. In my eyes, he's cool! Scootaloo was problably more in awe, because she was looking at him as if he was Rainbow Dash.

"Are you kidding me? You're almost cooler than Rainbow Dash!" She said. I chuckled. I've told Will about my sister's best friends: Pinkie Pie (Who is her cousin), Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, and Fluttershy. He smirks, kneeling.

"Well, I've been told by some sources that you're pretty cool yourself, can you perform some of those impossible tricks Applebloom's talked about. She doesn't really go into detail, she just says you do a trick, and that it's completely ridiculous," Will said. I chuckled nervously while Scootaloo gives me a glare. "I want to see what kind of nonsense you do," he finished. I nodded quickly. Scootaloo huffs and nods as she heads out to get her scooter. As we all wait for Scootaloo to come back, Sweetiebelle started a conversation.

"So, do you like singing?" She asks. I groaned, because Will is the worst singer ever.

"Why, yes I do!" He says.

"No you don't! You sound like vuiltures digging into a chalkboard with their claws!" I said.

"So? Sometimes you sound like a heart broken goat!" He said back.

"Nuh-uh!"

"Yeah-huh!"

"Do not!"

"Do too!" Sweetiebelle groans as she realizes she started a brother sister war.

"Scootaloo, please get back quick!" She mumbled as Will and I start throwing insults at each other. Sweetiebelle groans furiously as we don't stop bickering. She levitated me and Will away as the argument started to escalate. "Can you two calm down!" She squeals. We both stop at Sweetie's sudden outburst. "Thank you, now let's have some peace and quie-"

"Alright I'm back!" Scootaloo says as she flies through the door into the room. Will looks at the scooter in awe.

"Woah, that is so cool! I bet you can do awesome tricks!" He says. I smirk at his enthusiasm. Scootaloo nods, and smiles in pride.

We all watch as Scootaloo jumps off the ramp with a burst of speed and started to do tricks and flips galore on the wooden trail she had built. I stare with no amazement, but Will was the exact opposite. He was staring in awe, watching Scootaloo do her stunts. I just shake my head. It all looks so dangerous. I bet that Will and Scootaloo will be great great friends, seeing how well they are together.
