* This story takes place in an alternate timeline, branching off of canon some time before Twilight became an alicorn. Some future canon concepts will be included, but not all. *

Ever since the crusaders have gotten their cutie marks, things have been changing. They are growing up, after all. But Scootaloo isn't sure if she's changing in the way she should be. Something feels off. She begins to face a cloud of confusion about herself and the future. Her only hope is that she can pull herself out of it.
