Scootaloo's Saga
The Beginning
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIt was a cold, stormy night on the streets of Ponyville, a peaceful, friendly town. There was no one around except a mysterious pony with a black cloak and a hood that covered her face, and with it carried a small basket in her mouth. She approached the Ponyville Orphanage and set the basket in the door. The young pony opened the basket and inside it was a small pegasus filly. Her skin was orange, her mane was purple-pink, and her wings were tiny. The filly opened her eyes revealing that they were a bright purple. The young pony smiled sadly as she took the foal carefully from the basket, and hugged her.
"I'm sorry, I really wanted to be there for you ...... But unfortunately I can not ..... But I want you to know that I love you.And no matter what I will always be there for you. " The young pony said crying as she hugged her colt tightly. She should not have been more than 16, and honestly she was not ready to raise a filly by herself. The filly smiled at his mother who returned a sad smile. She kissed her foal's forehead and put it back in the basket. She was ready to leave until she heard something that made her heart melt.
"Ma ..... Mama ..." the foal tried to say, the pony's eyes widened and he did his best not to cry.
"I'm really sorry, you're going to be put in a much better home than I could give you." The young pony said, and with that she ran off leaving the foal at the orphanage's door,
Until the doors opened revealing one of the ponies working at the orphanage. Amethyst Star. When she noticed the young filly, she took it carefully in her arms and looked around to see if anyone was around. As she did not see anyone she came back into the orphanage with the young filly .....

(Scootaloo POV)
My name is Scootaloo, I have been an orphan since I was a baby, I live in the Ponyville orphanage, almost nobody knows it, the only ponies I trust to tell this are: Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and Rainbow Dash. Only they know that I am an orphan, I do not know how I would say that to the other ponies, I do not know what they would think of me.
I woke up from a deep dream and I thought this had been the strangest dream I ever had. I dreamed of a pony leaving a baby in an orphanage. I was only asked if this was a reminder of my past or just a conciseness. I yawned and straightened my hooves before starting to get up and leave the room. I went out the door of the orphanage and walked to the Crusader club.

"Hello Scootaloo!" Said Sweetie Belle inside the club, I did not answer. I entered the club and sat in a corner, with a thoughtful face.
"An? Scootaloo?" Apple Bloom said
I immediately get out of my thoughts.
"Excuse me, I was not paying attention," I said in a half-serious tone. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom looked at each other.
"Are you sure you're all right, Scoots? You look kind of pensive today," Sweetie Belle asked, nodding.
"Yes girls I'm fine, I'm just kind of ..... Confused," I said.
"Confused? With what?" Asked Apple Bloom
"Well, tonight I had a rather strange dream ... I dreamed of a pony leaving a baby in an orphanage. I do not know if it was just my head or a memory of when I was a baby" I said
"Well, I guess you should not have dreamed about it, maybe it's a memory," Apple Bloom said.
"Do you remember what the pony of your dream was like?" Sweetie Belle asked, I shook my head.
"No, I could not see her face .... But I wanted to, I think this pony of my dream could be my mother .... I wanted to meet her in person and know what the reasons were. of her having abandoned me .... "I said
"Well, maybe if we asked Miss Amethyst who works at the orphanage where you live, give her some information," said Sweetie Belle
"Yes, and if all goes well we could help you find your mother!" Said Apple Bloom, I immediately opened a huge smile on my face
"Really? Would you do that for me?" I said with tears in my eyes.
"Of course Scoots! We're all friends, and we should help each other," Sweetie Belle said.
I ran up to them and hugged them.
"Thank you so much girls!" I thanked
After our embrace the three of us ran out of the club with our Crusaders uniforms, to the orphanage
"Maybe I'll finally meet my mother!" I thought hopefully
Now I have a new mission.
And that mission was to find my biological mother

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and I were standing in front of the Ponyville orphanage, then we approached the door and opened it.
"You're ready?" Apple Bloom asked me, I nodded.
"Yes, more than ever!" I said. With that, the three of us entered the orphanage.
We walked the halls of the orphanage looking for Amethyst Star, she worked in the orphanage since I was a baby, and I was hoping she would know something about my real mother.
We kept walking until finally we saw her, so my friends and I ran to her.
"Miss Amethyst !!!" I shouted, and turned to me and said,
"Hi Scootaloo, are these your friends?" She said, I nodded.
"Yes these are my best friends: Apple Bloom and Belle Sweetie"
"Nice to meet you Miss Amethyst!" Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle said in unison.
"Pleasure is all my girls, but what brings you here today?" Amethyst asked
"Well Miss Amethyst, we would like to know if you know anything about my biological mother? Since you've been working here at the orphanage for years, I hope you knew something," I said.
Amethyst shook her head and said,
"I'm sorry Scootaloo but ..... I do not know anything about your mother or who she was, I'm sorry," she said.
I lowered my ears sadly at the answer.
"But you have no clue that can help our friend find her mother?" Sweetie Belle said
"Well, maybe I did ... when I found you at the Scootaloo door, you were wrapped in a kind of blanket that's only made in Cloudsdale."
"Cloudsdale?" Apple Bloom asked
"Yes, if you want I can give you the address where it's made," Amethyst said.
"Yes, please Miss Amethyst!" I begged.
She nodded and went to the counter and took out a paper and a pencil and began to write.
"Here is the address, good luck in finding you guys and Scootaloo do not come back late okay?" She said and I nodded.
With that I and the Crusaders ran out of the orphanage and we went to the place where maybe we would find our next clue. Cloudsdale.
But I only had one problem
How would we get there?

(Rainbow Dash POV)
I was flying under Ponyville after a long day of practice at Worderbolt Academy, until I noticed three filly talking about something on the ground. And it seemed to be serious. I decided to go to them and ask what was going on.
"Hi, girls." I said as I landed on the floor and started to walk towards them. Scootaloo was the first to notice me and said:
"Hi Rainbow Dash, we were just trying to figure out a way to go to Cloudsdale," she said.
I was surprised
"Why do you want to go to Cloudsdale?" I asked suspiciously.
"Scootaloo really wants to know who his biological mother is, and our next clue is Cloudsdale," said Sweetie Belle
I narrowed my eyes, certainly not expecting it. Now.
"Well ... I understand your search interest but .... Are you sure you want to do this?" I asked nervously. She nodded
"Yes Rainbow Dash I'm sure! I really need to know who my mother is and what were her reasons for which she put me in an orphanage" Scootaloo said
I sighed and calmly nodded.
"Okay, this is a right you have, and if you need any help you can count on me okay?" I said quietly
"Yes I need your help, can you help us get to Cloudsdale?" Scootaloo said pointing at her and the other Crusaders. I nodded.
"Yay !!!! Thank you so much Rainbow Dash!" She said as she hugged my front paw. I was surprised but I returned the hug.
"Now Up Next Cloudsdale Stop!" Said Scootaloo
