A Blooming Meadow

It was the night Sweet Song dreaded her and Meadow we’re at the Canterlot Dance University building her legs shook as her trademark cloak was draped over her body. Meadow on the other hoof was excited. She was wearing a sapphire blue ballerina uniform with matching shoes to go with. Her hooves ached but Meadow chose to ignore it she needed to do this for Sweet Song! They walked into the building and sat on the edge of the stage.

Sweet Song used her magic to shut the door. She then took her cloak off and it was reviled she was wearing a shimmering rainbow ballerina uniform.

"After this is over I'm not going to walk for a week." Meadow said, and Sweet Song laughed. She remembered that when she was younger she often would work her back hooves until they blistered. "But seriously thanks for training me."

Sweet Song smiled,

"It was nothing. By the way are your parent's okay with this?" She asked. Meadow smiled sheepishly,

"Actually I don't have any I live at the orphanage." She said and Sweet Song's eye's widened. This filly was helping her and spending time with her instead of looking for new parent's.

"Well I guess that explains it you're a homeless wore!" A familiar voice said and the two looked at the door, they saw Teddy Snare as she was wearing a silver ballerina uniform. Meadow blushed,

"A-Am not!" She stuttered. Snare snickered,

"Yeah, sure, so what happened to your regular parent's? Did they die of disappointment when they first saw you? Or did they try to put you in a sack and throw you into Canterlot Harbor?" She continued now pacing around her victim. Meadow was now starting to cry as memories of her old life flooded back.

"Leave us alone! We're here to dance not trash talk!" She retorted,

"Of course Annie then we'll go find you a rich goofball that will slowly learn to love your hideous face. And will adopt you and be your new pathetic daddy! Just before he dies of humiliation realizing he just helped a charity case!" Snare continued as Sweet Song was frozen in shock and fear. "Ya know never mind you, along with all the orphan's and foster kid's, are worthless!"

Until that moment. Before Sweet Song could even reconsider her actions. She bucked Snare into a nearby wall. Meadow gasped, she watched Snare got back up and her sister got on her right hoof. She started twirling on using her left hoof to slap her victim repeatedly. As memories flooded back into her mind.

Sweet Song was a filly again as she was crying Snare was over top of her beating her and screaming.

"You're a loser! You have not friend's! You have not family! And you don't deserve that cutiemark! You don't deserve to have anything!"

And that was the last thing she remembered before falling into darkness.

When Sweet Song woke up again she was home and she saw Meadow was surrounded by other kid's. And most shockingly of all Princess Celestia and Luna. Eventually one of them noticed she was awake. It was the Prince of Therapy.

"What was it like? Did you just feel hatred? And please tell me you remember!" Timidthy said looking towards Sweet Song like she was a missing link.

"Ummm......remember what?" She responded and she swore she saw some is the life escape the small colt,

"Awww! You don't remember!" Timidthy wailed.

"Told ya! She wouldn't remember if she wanted to!" Bumper cried out,

"Sorry brother but unless all your rage bursts from you then you'll only know what it feels like." Blood Bones said calmly.

"What's it?" Sweet Song asked,

"Oh ya know the thing where unicorns and alicorns get so mad they're mane and tail combust. And their coat, and eye's change color." Meadow said walking up to the bedside.

"Speaking of that you okay?" French Press asked,

"Yeah you went crazy like Citrus did when she chased Timidthy through campus." Crepe said and Citrus groaned.

"You guys are never going to let me live that down. Are ya?" She said and everypony nodded, minis Timidthy, who chuckled nervously.

"Anyway. Ms. Ballad, I bet you have a lot of questions." Luna said, and Sweet Song nodded.

"Well after she verbally insulted Meadow you went into a blind rage and started screaming while beating her. Meadow didn't know how else to calm you so she casted a sleeping spell on you. Snare is in the hospital with a few bruises and wounds but other than that she's fine. But to stop this from happening again we would like to recommend a restraining order." Celestia said, and Sweet Song nodded. The kid's then decided to leave the house as they talked,

"Ya know she's pretty." Pummel said dreamily. And as much as the other colts didn't want to admit it; they thought so too.

It had been a few days since the Sweet Song going nuts and beating up Snare causing a need in a restraining order thing and everypony who was anypony was talking about it. Heck it had even made it on all the news stations and on the first page on every newspaper and magazine. Right now Meadow was in her room as Cream Cake snuggled with her lovingly. Suddenly thought she heard noise in the hall. Meadow saw that colts we’re practically ready to pass out while the fillies looked green with envy.

Finally whoever or what came to the door and Meadow’s eye’s widened. It was Sweet Song Ballad, without her cloak. Mrs. Onyx was right behind her as some of the fillies and colts crowded by the door. She looked so happy that Meadow thought he was going to explode. Sweet Song was calm but she had a small excited smile on her face.

“Meadow would you like to be my daughter?” Sweet Song asked and every kid gasped while Cream Cake gawked, Meadow felt tears come to her eye’s before she ran up and hugged Sweet Song.

“Yes!” She replied and everypony cheered. Mrs. Onyx pulled out an adoption form and gave it to Sweet Song. She happily signed it and Meadow sighed it as well.

"Now I'll need time to get my house ready. But for now on you'll forever be my daughter." Sweet Song said calmly and Meadow replied,

"Thanks mum."
