I felt my eyes widen, almost comically. My breath started coming in short gasps, and tears entered my eyes. I couldn't help it, I let loose a whimper. "Please don't hurt me" I begged of her.

Starlight stopped, and laughed sightly "hurt you? Why would I hurt you? I only sent Twilight and Rainbow Dash out of the room because Rainbow would either be in a complete and utter panic, or in an un-stopable rage and Twilight would instantly turn into Sherclop Pones." She drew a quick breath and was instantly serious again. "Scootaloo, when I did that spell, did you see anything?"

I told her exactly what I saw and Starlight started nodding. "Yes,yes, I saw those too. But Scootaloo, did you see the last memory?"

I frowned, puzzled. "What last memory?" I ask her, starting to rise to m hooves. I hadn't even known I had fell.

"Scootaloo, your last memories were of you at the top of Steep Tops" Seeing my confusion, Starlight clarified "The very top of the mountain we found you at" I nod. "Anyways" Starlight continued. " I saw you turn around and say 'I got your message, what do you want?' I then saw what looked like a clod of dirt hit you in the eyes and you fell backwards off the cliff."

"So . . . . . . it wasn't an accident?" I asked, in all honesty relieved. It was kind of nice to know that I didn't try to commit suicide, not that I thought I did, but still. Nice to get that off the old mental list.

"No, but Scootaloo, there's something else . . . . the way you acted around this pony, you seemed to trust them completely, which means . . . " Starlight hesitated, afraid to finish the sentence, so I did it for her.

"It means that the pony who gave me amnesia, the pony who tried to kill me, is somepony I know well enough."

Me and Starlight stare at each other for a few moments until Starlight asked "So . . . should you break the news to Rainbow Dash, or shall I?"

I ever so slowly, reach out my hoof and tap her saying "your it" before running off,leaving her to break the news to a analytical alicorn and a temperamental Pegasus.
