Chapters A year passed after Raindrop's birth, and Scootaloo was now living peacefully and happily with her younger sister and her parents. But these past few months Scootaloo was starting to think about something else. Her biological father. Of course she was very happy to have Soarin as her stepfather, but she still wanted to know a little more about her real father.
Scootaloo came home after a day of school and went into the living room and sat on a couch near her parents.
"Hi Scoots how was your day at school?" Soarin asked
"It was great, I think"
"Is this serious Squirt? Are you sure there's nothing else bothering you?" Rainbow Dash said
Scootaloo sighed deeply and decided to open up with her parents.
"If I say will you be mad at me?"
Rainbow Dash and Soarin shook their heads.
"But of course not Scootaloo, you know you can tell us anything," Soarin said.
"Ok..." Scootaloo took a deep breath again and started talking
"Well I've only been thinking lately and ... What happened to my real father? I mean, not that I'm complaining about Soarin as my father but ... I just wanted to clear my doubts."
Rainbow Dash didn't know what to say at that moment. That question really took her by surprise, and it was obvious that she didn't want to talk too much about it, because she didn't know what Soarin's reaction would be. But she knew he wouldn't be mad.
"Scootaloo.... I ..."
"Please tell me, I just want to know who my father was, I promise I'll never touch this subject again if you tell me"
Rainbow Dash took a deep breath and then looked at Soarin who gave her a nod of approval.
"Scootaloo your father ... He was the first pony I had, we dated for a year and a half and well ... Soon after we had you"
"Only that?" Rainbow Dash took a deep breath again
"Right after you were born he ... He started to get violent, he drank a lot and sometimes even hit me and you when you were a baby, so I left him. Soon after I never knew him. His parents said he disappeared into the world, I really don't know what happened to him ... "
Scootaloo didn't know what to say now, the room was silent for a long time until finally she decided to say something.
"Do you think I'll ever meet him?"
"I do not know..."
"Oh ..."
"Well girls what do you guys think of us hanging out together? It's been a long time since we did that" Soarin said trying to brighten the mood a bit
"That sounds great Soar" Dash said
Soon after they heard a baby cry from one of the bedrooms. Dash was about to get up but Soarin stopped her.
"Don't worry Dashie, I'll see what happened to Raindrop. You stay here with Scootaloo in the meantime," he said as he kissed her cheek.
"Okay then"
Soarin then entered the room leaving his wife and daughter alone in the room.
After a while they heard a knock on the door.
"I open the door!" Scootaloo said as ela ran to the door and opened it.
"Hello, Rainbow Dash is home? I'd like to talk to her" a male pony said
"Ok alright I'll tell her you're here, just wait a minute" Scootaloo said approaching her mother in the room.
"Mom has a stud wanting to talk to you at the door"
"Really? I wasn't expecting anyone," Rainbow Dash said suspiciously as she approached the door and when she realized who it was, she stopped for a moment.
"Hello Rainbow, it's been a long time since the last time we met," said the stallion, his skin was dark orange, his mane was dark purple and his eyes were blue.
It was Feather Fire. Rainbow Dash's old boyfriend, and Scootaloo's biological father.
"F-Feather Fire? What are you doing here?" Rainbow Dash said nervously
"Is that any way to welcome someone very important from your past Dash?"
"After what you did to me, I think so"
"Oh come on Dash, I came to win back what I lost in the past"
"Mom who is this stud?" Scootaloo asked a little confused by everything that was going on.
"Scootaloo ... This is Feather Fire, your biological father" Rainbow Dash said
Didn't Scootaloo believe what she just heard, after so long was her biological father finally in front of her? She didn't know how to react, but one part of herself was pretty happy about it and another part was a little in shock.
Feather Fire looked at the door next to Rainbow Dash and smiled.
"Finally this moment has come, I've waited years for it. Just to review the face of this beautiful little filly, you're Scootaloo right?" Feather said
"Y-Yes I am ... Are you Feather Fire, my mother's first boyfriend and my father?" Scootaloo said
"Yes it's me little one, and I'm very glad to see you again" he then looked at Rainbow Dash
"I'm also very happy to see your mother again, now we can be the family we always dreamed of," Feather said.
"Feather I'm sorry to inform you of this but ... I'm now married and already have a new family with this stud I married," Rainbow Dash said firmly, Feather Fire then raised an eyebrow at her.
"Dashie you won't believe it, Raindrop said another word and-" Soarin was cut off when she noticed the stallion in the room with his wife and stepdaughter.
"Sorry I'm disturbing anything?" Soarin said as he held Raindrop in his hooves.
"No I don't think so ..." Dash said nervously
"Oh so you're the current Rainbow Dash's husband right?" Feather Fire said, Soarin then raised an eyebrow at the stallion.
"Yes I am Soarin the Rainbow Dash's husband, and who are you?"
"I'm Feather Fire, Rainbow Dash's old boyfriend"
Soarin was not believing that. His wife's old boyfriend and his stepdaughter's biological father was standing right there in the middle of his office.
"Well I think we should sit down and talk some more what you think?" Feather Fire suggested
Rainbow Dash and Soarin seemed a little disapproving of that, but they wouldn't deny Scootaloo's chance to finally meet her biological father.
______________________________________
To be continued...
The four ponies sat in the living room on separate sofas. Rainbow Dash was sitting with Soarin, and Raindrop was in their midst, Scootaloo was sitting with Feather Fire.
"You know Scootaloo, I always dreamed of having a daughter like you, and my dream finally came true," Feather said.
"I'm also very glad you came back. I always dreamed of meeting my true parents at the time I was an orphan," Scootaloo said, Feather raised an eyebrow at Rainbow Dash.
"Orphan? Is that serious Rainbow Dash? I can't believe you left our daughter alone for so long."
"Hey! For your information I had no choice, but you were one of the main reasons I made that decision!" Dash said a little annoyed
"Calm down Dash I didn't mean to offend you, that was just a comment"
"Well then you better not make more comments like that, especially in front of Scootaloo!"
"Okay then..."
Feather then noticed the baby in the middle of Rainbow Dash and Soarin.
"Apparently you already have a second baby right Dash?" he said
"Yes! This is my little sister Raindrop Skies, she's a year old" Scootaloo said
"She is really very beautiful just like her mother"
Suddenly the room then went silent. None of the ponies said a word until Soarin finally decided to break the silence.
"So Feather Fire, how did you find out where my family lived?"
"Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo are also my family, and I found out where you lived looking for some information in Cloudsdale and here in Ponyville, which wasn't difficult at all."
"Feather since when are we a family? You know very well that we stopped being a family when you raped me and Scootaloo a few years ago," Rainbow Dash said. Scootaloo just stared at the adult ponies not knowing what to say.
"Rainbow Dash I'm not that pony anymore, I've changed a lot of times here" Feather said
"I still doubt you!" Dash said
"Mommy, you don't have to talk to Daddy like that, he said he's changed, can't you give him a chance?" Scootaloo said
"Scootaloo this is an adult conversation, plus you don't know him like I do" Dash said
"For now. We'll get to know each other pretty well from now on and we'll have all the time in the world for it," Feather said.
"What?" Soarin said a little confused
"Just when I found out where you lived, I quickly decided to rent a house here in Ponyville just to be very close to each other," Feather said.
Rainbow Dash and Soarin's eyes widened
"W-what?" Dash said
"Yes Rainbow Dash, I'm moving here just to be as close as possible to my daughter and my daughter's mother" Feather said
"That's so cool! I can't believe you're moving to Ponyville!" Scootaloo said excitedly
"I do everything for you Scootaloo" Feather said
Rainbow Dash was still looking at him with an unreliable expression, because that was just a new problem for her to deal with.
______________________________________
To be continued...
Rainbow Dash was putting Scootaloo to sleep in her bed, as she always did, until Feather approached her.
"Hey Dash! Putting our daughter to bed right?" Feather said
"It is not obvious?" Dash said looking away
"Come on Rainbow Dash you can't be mad at me forever. Remember I'm the father of our daughter and-" Feather was cut by Dash
"Feather, the fact that we have a daughter together doesn't mean I should forgive you for everything you did to me."
"I know but ... I want to find a way to make up for you for everything I've done in the past."
"Feather I don't think there's much to do now"
"Are you sure about that?" Dash nodded.
She was about to leave the room when Feather suddenly grabbed her by the hull and pulled her close to him.
"Look no matter what you say, I'll do everything to make our daughter happy with the best parents she could have," he said.
"You mean ... Soarin and me?" Feather shook her head.
"No Dash, I mean us"
Dash's eyes widened
"Feather, I don't think it's a good idea ..."
"Just give me a chance as our daughter's father, and maybe .... As a husband?"
Rainbow Dash said nothing she just kept quiet after he said that. Soarin entered the room and his eyes widened when he saw Rainbow Dash and Feather very close to each other.
"Am I interrupting anything?" Soarin said in a half nervous tone
Rainbow Dash quickly stepped away from Feather and approached Soarin.
"No, certainly not," she said.
"Well I'm going, but tomorrow I'll be back to see Scootaloo. See you tomorrow everypony," Feather said as he left the room, and left. Soarin then stared at Rainbow Dash.
"Well ... what was that Dash?" He said
"What?"
"Yeah, Dash ... When I arrived I saw that you and Feather were very close to each other."
"Soarin you can rest easy about this, nothing happened between us"
"Are you sure about that? Because he seemed to have ulterior motives with you."
"Yes Soarin, I'm sure, and besides, Feather knows very well that now I'm married, and I'm very happy with the stud I married."
Soarin smiled and then pulled Rainbow Dash into a hug.
"I know that Dash, I just get uncomfortable around this guy ..."
"Don't worry about it, me too. I love you Soarin, and only you. I could never love anyone, how much I love you."
"I love you too Dash ..."
______________________________________
The next day Scootaloo had woken up before everyone else, she was very anxious to spend the day with her father.
"Oh I can't wait for him to get here!"
"Who Scootaloo?" Dash asked
"My father of course!" Rainbow Dash raised an eyebrow at her.
"We'd better take it easy on this Scootaloo, he just came back after years. We don't really know what his intentions are ..."
"Mom? Are you doubting my dad?"
"No but ... I have my doubts ..."
A few minutes later Feather finally showed up at Rainbow Dash's house.
"Hello my girls! So who's ready for a walk in the park?" Rainbow Dash looked away from him.
"I'm sorry to tell you this Feather but ... we won't be able to walk you today" she said
"What? Why?" Feather said
"Because I remembered that Scootaloo and I had important things to do today."
"Mom we don't-" Scootaloo was cut by his mother's hoof in her mouth
"No Scootaloo, we really have a lot to do, now go to your room"
Scootaloo left the room with a sad expression
"What are you trying with this Dash?" Feather said
"Nothing, I just remembered that I had important things to do"
"Rainbow Dash don't lie to me, I know a liar from afar"
"Maybe it's because you're a..." Dash whispered to herself.
"What?"
"Nothing, now you better leave"
"Rainbow Dash you'll still regret it," Feather said as he flew away.
Dash just sighed and closed the door
______________________________________
To be continued...
Rainbow Dash, Soarin and Scootaloo were on their way to the hearing by Scootaloo's guard, they had left Raindrop with Fluttershy while they were gone.
"Are you sure you're ready for this, Dashie?" Soarin asked his wife who seemed very concerned about all of this.
"Yes .... I just want to get this over with," Dash said
Soarin then came over and kissed Dash's cheek.
"Don't worry sweetheart, everything will be fine" he said
"Dad, what's going on? Why are we here? And why does Mommy look so worried?" Scootaloo asked a little worried
"Don't worry about it Scoots, we just need to answer a few questions for the judge. There is nothing you can worry about" Soarin said reassuring Scootaloo a little.
Soon after, the three ponies entered the courtroom, and sat down to begin the trial. Feather was sitting next to them, and Soarin was looking at him with a somber expression.
"Can we start the hearing?" The judge asked, and everyone nodded
"Very well, Mr. Feather Fire decided to open this hearing by guarding his daughter Scootaloo, who is now in the care of her mother Rainbow Dash and her stepfather Soarin. Mr. Feather, why exactly did you decide to open this hearing?" The judge said
"As you can see, Your Honor, Rainbow Dash and I are Scootaloo's biological parents, and well I decided to open this hearing because I wanted to have the chance to take care of my daughter as like mother" Feather said
"Does Miss Rainbow Dash have anything to say?" The judge asked
"I ..." Dash couldn't finish the sentence, she was very nervous.
"I'm going to say what she was going to say. She wanted to say that she is totally against this audience because she doesn't want me to have a chance to take care of our daughter. But I will say that I have the same right in relation to that, because after all I am the biological father "Feather said
Soarin finally decided to say something in defense of Dash.
"Your Honor, this gentleman just forgot to say that he raped Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo in the past when he was just a baby, he disappeared for years without breaking the news, and he never cares to know about his daughter" Soarin said
"Yes, but I've changed a lot about it. I want to start my life over. I'm not that violent pony I was anymore, and to your knowledge Soarin I always cared about my daughter, even when I was away. I just want to have the same chance as Dash to raise my daughter, but she is very selfish about it. A few days ago I wanted to take my daughter for a walk in the park but the mother’s selfishness didn’t let "Feather said, Rainbow Dash was dying of rage right now.
The judges were now making their decision on what to do with this case.
"We have already made our decision and well, Feather Fire for being Scootaloo's biological father has every right to be present in his daughter's life, which is why from today he will be temporarily guarding Scootaloo" judge said hitting his object on the table
Rainbow Dash couldn't believe what you just heard.
"Your Honor, didn't you hear the part that Feather is a violent guy? Why does he have to take care of my daughter !?" Rainbow Dash said
"Miss Dash, he is Scootaloo's father, he has the same right as you to raise the child. And as he said, he has changed for the better, and besides he is temporarily. If he proves not to be a good father in a while month, Scootaloo's guard will stay with you again "the judge said
"But..."
Feather then approached Scootaloo.
"Come on Scootaloo, starting today you're going to live with me" Feather said
"What? But what about my mother?" Scootaloo said a little confused
"Don't worry about it Scootaloo, you will continue to live with her every day. The only difference is that you will be living with me from now on" he said
Scootaloo nodded slowly. She then approached her mother who was crying a lot. Rainbow Dash then pulled Scootaloo into a tight hug while crying.
"It'll be okay mom" Scootaloo said
"No Scootaloo. I can find a way to talk to Twilight or Princess Celestia or-"
"No mom, you better not try to do anything. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine with my father"
"I hope so ... I love you Scootaloo"
"I love you too, mommy ..."
"Come on Scootaloo, I have to show you, your new home" Feather said as he approached Scootaloo and took her hull.
"Ok"
And so the two ponies went out through the courthouse door. Leaving Rainbow Dash crying a lot while Soarin hugged her and did everything to comfort her.
"Don't worry Dashie, we'll get Scootaloo's guard again" Soarin said as he kissed Dash's forehead.
"I ... I hope so ..." Dash said while crying
______________________________________
To be continued...
"Mommy! I'm really happy that you're here" Scootaloo said as she hugged her mother. Rainbow Dash hugged her back.
"I do everything to stay by your side honey" She said and then looked at Feather.
"I'm really happy that you decided to move in with me Dash" He said
"Don't mix things up Feather. I just came to be with my daughter during this process"
"Our daughter"
Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes and went into a room with Scootaloo
______________________________________
In the evening...
The three ponies were gathered at the table for dinner, Feather had ordered the pizza that Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo loved.
"Wow, this pizza is delicious, Dad. How did you know I liked this pizza?" Scootaloo said
"Well this is your mother's favorite pizza, I know that because when we were still a couple she always craved this pizza" Feather said looking at Dash who tried to do her best not to make eye contact with him.
"You know Scootaloo, I'm very happy that we are gathered here as a family, the family we always dreamed of"
"Feather we are not a family, and we never will be. My family is just Scootaloo, Soarin and my baby daughter Raindrop" Dash said
"Mom, Daddy is trying to change ... Why can't you accept that?"
"Scootaloo I'm sorry to tell you this but I don't believe your father could have changed. I lost my hunger, I'm going to the room" Rainbow Dash said as she flew to the guest room
______________________________________
"Rainbow Dash?" Feather said as he entered the room
"What you want?" She said
"I just want to talk, and try to make it up to you"
"Feather, I don't know if I can believe you"
"Of course you can, look at me I'm a changed guy now. All I want to do is stay close to my family"
"Feather for the last time-" Rainbow Dash was cut off by Feather pulling her closer to him
"Rainbow Dash all I want is to start my life over, I just want to be by your side forever"
"Feather I ..."
"I know I made a lot of mistakes with you and our daughter in the past, but now I want to be with you. Don't say that you don't want the same either, I know how much you want me back, if it weren't for you wouldn't be here with me "
"I..."
Feather then pulled her tightly closer to him for his lips to touch. Rainbow Dash's eyes widened, she tried to break free of him but failed. Feather was still kissing her with brute force.
He pulled away from her and looked her in the eye.
"I love you Rainbow Dash, I have always loved you"
"Am I interrupting something?" A stallion said standing at the door
Rainbow Dash turned to see who it was and saw Soarin with an astonished look at the door.

To be continued...
It's Not What It Looks Like...
Soarin was white like a ghost, while he was standing at the door without saying a word. Rainbow Dash approached him but he moved away from her.
"Soarin ... I ..."
"You what Dash? Do you finally want to assume that you still love your old boyfriend? So I suggest you do what your heart tells you to do and stop wasting your time with me!" Soarin said in a nervous tone. He then approached Feather and punched him in the face.
"What was that guy?!" Feather said
"I loved her! How can you do that? You knew perfectly well that she was a married mare!"
"I am not to blame if she loves me more, in fact I think she never forgot me"
"Enough you two!" Rainbow Dash said as she flew away
"What's going on here? And why was Mommy crying?" Scootaloo said as she entered the room
"It was nothing Scootaloo, your mother just needs time for her" Soarin said while looking at Feather with a dark look
A few days later...
Rainbow Dash was isolating herself from the world after the incident with Feather. She was worried about everything, but what left her the most was the fact that Soarin didn't love her anymore because of that kiss that Feather stole from her.
She was no longer able to stay away from Soarin. She really needed to talk to him.
She got up from the bed and flew home.
She landed in front of the door and knocked on her for an answer.
The door slowly opened to reveal Soarin with a somber look.
"What do you want Rainbow Dash?"
"Soarin I need to talk to you"
"Say what? There is nothing that can be said"
"Soarin my love, please nothing happened between Feather and me, he kissed me I didn't kiss him back"
"You could have got rid of him"
"I tried! He was too strong for me!" Soarin sighed
"Goodbye Rainbow Dash" He said as he closed the door
"Soarin ... Please ..." She then started to cry a lot at the door with the tears of her life that was being destroyed.
______________________________________
To be continued...
Rainbow Dash was in the castle of friendship crying, while her friends comforted her. After what happened she decided to spend the night at the Twilight's castle.
"Don't cry Rainbow Dash" Fluttershy said
"Yes, Soarin loves you he won't give up on you" Pinkie Pie said
"I don't know if he loves me anymore, Pinkie, he was really upset. I'm afraid our marriage will end because of this misunderstanding" Dash said
"Don't worry suggercube, if it was just a misunderstanding I'm sure Soarin will hear you at one time or another" Applejack said
"But it's not just that girls, I don't know if I'm going to get Scootaloo's guard back. Feather has so far shown no sign of being violent ... I'm starting to lose hope" Dash said
"Don't say that Rainbow Dash! She is your daughter and you love her more than anything, you will get her guard back" Rarity said
"Perhaps..."
The door then opened and revealed Scootaloo very frightened.
"Hi Mom..."
"Scootaloo did something happen?" Twilight said
"Well I..."
Rainbow Dash approached her and noticed that she had some scars on her body.
"Scootaloo what happened here?"
Scootaloo did not respond
"Honey, you know you can tell me everything, don't you? Let's tell me what happened here?"
"Well ... yesterday when you left my father went crazy, he drank a lot and then started to take his anger out on me"
Rainbow Dash couldn't believe what she heard
"Are you sure about that Scoots?"
Scootaloo nodded
"I knew that guy was worthless! And he pretended to be a good father all along!" Rainbow Dash said angrily
"Calm down Rainbow Dash, the next trial hearing is this weekend, so you can prove he's not a good father" Twilight said
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm going to do, I'm going to get my daughter back. This I can guarantee" Dash said while stroking Scootaloo's head
______________________________________
To be continued...
Finally the day of the final judgment had arrived. Everyone was pretty tense about it. mainly the birth Scootaloo's Parents, Rainbow Dash and Feather Fire. Feather seemed the most relaxed however, Rainbow Dash seemed the most nervous.
"We are gathered here today to decide who the Scootaloo colt should stay with. Her guard is being fought over by her two biological parents, Feather Fire and Rainbow Dash. Feather, would you like to be the first to say something?" The judge said
"Your Honor, I believe I can take care of my daughter perfectly, for a whole month I proved to be a very capable father of raising a child on my own" Feather said
"Ok, Rainbow Dash would you like to say something?"
"I ..." Dash tried to say but she was very nervous.
Suddenly she spotted Soarin sitting in one of the court chairs cheering for her. She immediately put a confident smile on her face and positioned herself to take the next step.
"Your Honor, with all due respect, but I disagree with this guy. He may even be Scootaloo's biological father and have a better condition than mine, but that doesn't mean he can really take care of a child alone" She said
"And what do you mean by that?" Feather said a little suspiciously
"Scootaloo herself told me that he is a violent father, drinks a lot and takes his anger out on her"
"Is that true, Mr. Feather?" The judge said
"Of course not!"
"Miss Scootaloo, do you confirm that your father is a violent guy?" The judge said
"Yes ..." Scootaloo said
"In this case, the guarding of this filly will definitely stay with its mother Rainbow Dash. Feather Fire you will only be able to see your daughter every three weeks, and the case is closed!" The judge said hitting his object on the table
"It can't be! This can't be happening!" Feather said angrily. Soon after, two guards took him away.
Scootaloo ran to Rainbow Dash who instantly pulled her into a strong sentimental hug.
"Mommy did you hear? I will stay with you!"
"Yes" Rainbow Dash said with happy tears in her eyes. She was very touched to have her daughter's custody back. And this time it was permanently.
"I still can't believe my father is a monster ..."
"As much as he is an idiot, he still loves you. Don't worry Scootaloo you can still see him from time to time"
Scootaloo hugged her again, while she rubbed her head on her mother's chest.
"Rainbow Dash?" Soarin said as he approached her with Raindrop on his hooves.
"Soarin"
"I'm sorry, Dashie, I should have trusted you. I know you would never betray me, I hope you can really forgive me someday"
"Soarin don't worry about it, I love you. I could never think of a life without you. Even if I wanted to I wouldn't live without you" She said as she kissed him on the cheek
"Thank you, someone has missed you both too" Soarin said pointing to Raindrop who was on his back. Rainbow Dash approached her daughter and picked her up on her hooves.
"Mommy missed you kid, really bad. Your sister missed you too, say hello to Scootaloo" Rainbow Dash said pointing to Scootaloo
"Hello little sister!" Scootaloo said
"Well now that we're all together again, how about we do something cool tonight?" Soarin suggested
"That looks great sweetheart" Dash said
"My life is complete again ..." Scootaloo thought
______________________________________
End...
The next day Rainbow Dash woke up and started doing her daily morning routine. Go to the bathroom, get ready and prepare breakfast.
Shortly after finishing preparing breakfast, she noticed a letter by the door. She walked to the door and took the letter and started reading.
Her eyes widened in shock when she finished reading the letter. Her expression looked very concerned.
"Dashie? Did something happen?" Soarin said as he approached his wife.
"S-Soarin ... Feather him ... He asked for an audience for Scootaloo's guard ... What are we going to do?" Dash said as she showed the letter to Soarin. He looked very angry now.
"I knew this guy was worthless!" He said
Scootaloo came into the room and noticed that her parents seemed very upset about something.
"Mom? Dad? Did something happen?" Scootaloo said
"Scootaloo we ... I really don't want to talk about it right now ..." Dash said
Scootaloo nodded and decided not to question further.
______________________________________
Rainbow Dash flew over to Feather's house to get this story out of the audience. She landed in front of his house and knocked on the door.
Feather opened the door and looked at the mare with a smile
"Hey Rainbow Dash, how's life going?"
"Don't pretend to be Feather! You know very well what's going on!"
"Oh yes, you are talking about the audience right?"
"Really Feather? Why is that now? You were never present in Scootaloo's life, so why do you want to take her from me now?!" Feather sighed
"Rainbow Dash, you know very well that I have the same rights as you to take care of her. After all, she is also my daughter. And I never said I wanted to take her away from you"
"So what do you want, Feather?"
"I want us to be a family again, just like old times"
"Forget Feather, it will never happen. I am very happy with Soarin and my daughters"
Feather then shook his shoulders
"So if that's the case, I don't see any other choice"
______________________________________
To be continued...
A few days passed after Scootaloo moved in with Feather Fire, and Rainbow Dash was the one who was suffering the most. She visited Scootaloo every day and always asked if she was okay, and however bad the situation, she was fine living with her father.
Rainbow Dash's biggest fear was that Scootaloo would adapt to her new life and that she wanted to be with her father permanently.
She was lying on her bed while holding Raindrop on her hooves.
"Rainbow Dash are you okay?" Soarin said as he approached his wife on the bed, which looked worse than ever.
"S-Soarin do you think she will be with him forever?" Dash said as she let some tears fall from her eyes.
"No sweetie, this is only temporary"
"But what if she wants to live with him forever? What if she doesn't want to see me anymore?"
"Dashie, this will never happen, Scootaloo loves you. And you were the best thing that ever happened in her life, she won't give up on you that easy. And I'm sure you won't give up on her either"
"Of course not Soarin, she is my daughter and I would never give up on any of my daughters"
"I know" Soarin said as he placed a wing on Dash's back.
"Soarin I can't be without her anymore, I need to be with her somehow. And I think the way I can be close to her is going to be-"
"Living with her at Feather's house?"
Dash's eyes widened at first but soon after she nodded slowly
"Soarin I don't see any other option, I just can't leave her with that pony she barely knows. But don't worry it will be for a little while, at least until the day of the next court hearing"
The room was quiet for a while afterwards, Soarin leaned over and kissed Dash's cheek and then gave her a loving and understandable smile.
"Dashie, I understand if you make that decision, but know that I will always be here if you need to"
"Thank you for understanding me Soar"
They then leaned over and placed a sweet, soft kiss on each other's lips.
"But you intend to take Raindrop with you," Soarin said pointing to his one-year-old daughter who was among them.
"I don't think so, I don't want her to be around Feather like Scootaloo"
"Ok then"
______________________________________
The next day Rainbow Dash was preparing her bags for her temporary move. Soarin approached her and placed a hoof on her shoulder.
"Are you sure Dashie will be okay?"
"Yes Soarin to be honest I don't want to go, but I need to stay with Scootaloo during this process"
"Okay, but if you need anything you know you can count on me" Dash smiled and kissed Soarin on the cheek
"Yes Soarin I know" She said, right after she approached the sofa where Raindrop who was sitting on the sofa playing with her toys. She then took the filly in her hooves and hugged her.
"You be a good girl while I'm gone. Mommy loves you very much. Your daddy will take good care of you," Dash said and then kissed her filly on the forehead. She then approached Soarin again and placed Raindrop on his hooves.
"I love you, I will be back soon" She said
"We love you too, Dashie" Soarin said
Dash smiled and soon after she was about to leave, when Soarin put a hoof on her shoulder again
"Look if Feather tries anything with you, you will let me know right away ok?"
Dash smiled and placed a soft kiss on Soarin's lips
"Don't worry Soar, I'll be fine"
