//-------------------------------------------------------// Scootaloo's Story -by maddiecunta- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// The Adoption Agency //-------------------------------------------------------// The Adoption Agency There were only about a couple weeks that Scootloo needed to stay in the box.She despised that box!She could barely move with all those tubes in there.But today was her freedom day!She just couldn't wait to make new friends at the adoption agency! *At the adoption agency* The ponies dropped her off at the adoption agency,and the mare at the counter had taken her to the other room with foals her age. Everypony was either chewing on something,sleeping in a crib,or just sitting and watching the tiny,old T.V.,that had one channel on it.Then,Scootaloo saw somepony in the room,who seemed rather lonely.He was just sitting in a corner,looking down at his hooves.So Scootaloo walked over to him,like any other nce pony would do,to say 'hello' "Hewwo?" "Hmm?"This pony had a navy blue,and slightly brighter blue,mane.Purple eyes,and grey fur.He was also a pegasus. "I'm Scootawoo.Who awe you?"Scootaloo gave him a caring smile. "I'm rumbwe.I have a big bwofer,Thundew Wane,he's with da oldew kids." "I don't have any brofers,or sistews.It must be fun!" "Someti-"Rumble was cut off by their 'teacher' Mrs.Caring Heart. "Nap time!"Her voice had a sweet tone,that would make anypony listen to her. There was an array of white cribs,with purple blankets.Nothing special.But when Scootaloo got in that crib,she was either tired,or the mattress worked like a charm!Mrs.Caring Heart turned on the radio,and classical music was playing. Rumble was in the crib next to her(they were all pretty close together)before she went to sleep,Scootaloo was going to try to talk to rumble,but he fell asleep quiker than her!So she decided to go to sleep herself. *After nap time* Scootaloo found out Rumble semt to be the quiet type.He'd usually be coloring,or playing on his own.He didn't mind talking to Scootaloo,though. Days turned into weeks,and weeks turned into months.It was time for all of the foals to go to the colts and fillies room.But the most important part of all,they were going to school!Scootaloo and Rumble were already good friends,and they were going to stick together,through thick and thin,all the way to the end of the school year!Right? //-------------------------------------------------------// Birth //-------------------------------------------------------// Birth April Showers lay in bed on a stormy night,waiting for her husband,Wind Storm,to come back home.She was eleven months pregnant,and was expecting her baby to come any day now. She heard a knock at the door.She got out of bed,and opened the door. There was a stallion of brown,with a black mane.He had a grimm look on his face,with a black tuxedo,and a black hat on.His emerald green eyes almost shined in the moonlight. "Ma'am.I am sorry to tell this sad news,but I'm afraid your husband Wind Storm,died of an accident,causing him to crash into another pony,whilst flying,and falling to his-well you know." April gasped,and you could see tears streaming down her face.She needed to stop,so she wouldn't stress the baby out. "Have a blessed night ma'am."Said the stallion,as he slowly walked away from their cloud house. *later that night* It was 3:00A.M.,and April was feeling contractions."You were supposed to be coming in another week!"April rushed out of the door,wishing her husband was hear to(try to)comfort her right now. "Thank Celestia there's a hospital above the clouds!"April made her way into the hospital.Nurse Snow Heart was at the counter,awaiting any ponies to come and tell her their problems. "Nurse!I'm*gasp*in labor!"Of course,as expected,two ponies came in with a bed in their hooves.It bumped into her rump,causing her to bounce onto the bed.They rushed into the wing where all of the mares gave birth to their foals.She could she many other mares crying,or holding their stomachs in pain,as they were rushed into their own rooms. They entered April's room,and the hospital smell rushed into her nose.The ponies lay her on the bed,and left the room.April sat,and waited in fear,and pain.So many emotions were going through her mind right now,she was actually giving birth to her own foal.Right now. Three nurses entered the room.Of course,the one nurse we all know and love entered the room,nurse Red Heart. (I'm not going over the birth part,so.....long story short Scootaloo is born!) April held her daughter in her hooves,gazing upon her,she could hear her breathing,and every now and then shivering,as any other newborn foal would do."I like the name....Scootaloo.I love i-"All of a sudden,something didn't feel right.There was a sharp pain in April's chest,where her heart was.She quickly pressed the nurse button,but when the nurses came in,she was lying on the bed unresponsive.She had a cardiac arrest. The nurses were about to come in anyway,the time April was holding Scootaloo was the only time she could at the time.Because Scootaloo was born about a week early,her lungs were not completley developed,they are only fully developed at birth. They placed Scootaloo in a clear,plastic box with tubes to help her breath.Once she was able to breath on her own her own,she was straight to the adoption agency. //-------------------------------------------------------// School //-------------------------------------------------------// School Scootaloo and Rumble walked to school,but as they did,there were two fillies whispering,and laughing.One was pink with a purple and white mane,and she was wearing a tiara.The other was grey,witha white mane,along with blue glasses,and a pearl necklace.They already had their cutie marks,but at the time,that wasn't a big concern.They were all around 7-8 months(in pony years I presume)cutie marks weren't that big of a deal. Scootaloo began to speed up,thinking they were talking about her,and Rumble followed close behind. "Hey!You two!Why don't you have you have your cutie marks yet?"The pink filly pointed at her cutie mark. "Do I need one?"Scootaloo's remark just made it worse. "Like,duh!Everypony whose anypony has a cutie mark!"The grey filly rolled her purple eyes. Scootaloo turned towards Rumble again."That's dumb." "Bump bump,sugar lump,rump!"The two fillies giggled after their 'hoof-shake'. Scootaloo felt like she was going throw up. They finally reached the school house.Outside, there was a group of colts and a group of fillies,all talking to eachother.Scootaloo and Rumble parted,and went to the seperate groups.There were two fillies,that stood out,talking to eachother,maybe they'd be her friends! "Hi!I'm Scootaloo!"She put a nice smile on her face. "I'm Sweetie Belle!Nice to meet you!"This filly had white fur,a pink and purple mane,and green eyes. "Howdy there!I'm Apple Bloom."This filly had yellow fur,a red mane,a pink bow,and orange-red eyes. Scootaloo noticed that they didn't have cutie marks either.She was going to ask,but Sweetie Belle asksed for her. "Do you have your cutie mark yet?" "No.Do you?" "Nope!"The two girls answered in unison. "Hey,"Scootaloo looked around."Do you know who those two mean fillies are?" "Yeah,the one with the tiara,is Diamond Tiara.The one with the necklace is Silver Spoon." "Figures." The school bell rang and all the fillies and colts ran in. The desks were in an array of 3x7.All three of the girls got in the first row of three,sadly,Diamond Tiara,and Silver were in the two chairs behind them. Their teacher had dark pink fur,a two tone pink mane,and green eyes.Her cutie mark was three smiling flowers. "Hello,class.My name is Ms.Cheerilee.I'll be your teacher for the rest of the year.Let's start out by saying our names." She pointed at Scootaloo."Scootaloo." "Apple Bloom." "Sweetie Belle." Scootaloo watched as(finally)the last colt got called. "Now that we've gotten the names out of the way,you may talk for the rest of the day,but enjoy it!We're only doing this today." Scootaloo.Sweetie Belle,and Apple Bloom talked the whole time.They were just enjoying getting to know eachother.Scootaloo even found out she was the oldest out of the three,Apple Bloom was the second oldest,and Sweetie Belle was the youngest. But It wasn't until recess,had they gotten an amazing idea.
