Wings Of A Mareby mlplifeChaptersRealizationAdvice From An Old FriendA diamond reunionWings Of A MareALT ENDING- ShortRealizationScootaloo sat on her bed, her head was spinning as she pondered those words ''you will never fly..'' she almost couldn't believe it. Ever since she was a filly, all Scootaloo ever wanted was to fly with her idol, Rainbow Dash, but now she was a full grown mare and her wings are still as small as ever. The Pegasus got of her bed as she walked to a small wooden chest on the other side of the room, her hooves were shaking when she opened the chest, after rummaging through her stuff she found what she was looking for, a picture of her and her best friends, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, back when they were young. Tears started to come from the orange mare's eyes as she stared at the picture, thinking back to the days when the CMC tried to earn their cutie marks, when they finally achived their goals...back when she had hope she would one day soar in the clouds next to her sister. Scootaloo was walking through Ponyville, looking at the ground, not daring to look at the sky.. not even for one of Dash's airshows, she walked longer than she normally did, avoiding the busiest spots of town. Scootaloo was nearing the end of her walk when she heard somepony yell ''Look out BELOW!!'', without any time to react Scootaloo ducked, knowing full well that was not going to protect her. CRASH. The orange mare was in shock from the impact, when she opened her eyes she saw a certain rainbow maned pegasus on top of her, Scootaloo got up from under the other pony and questioned her. ''Rainbow, why did you crash into me?'', Rainbow Dash stood up with a guilty look on her face as she explained herself ''Sorry Scoot, but I totally messed up on a new trick I was working on'' she said as she brushed of her wings while she continued ''so, ya, what's up with you Scootaloo''. Scoot flinched, of all the questions Dash could have asked she chose the one she didn't want to answer, she responded as best she could. ''I'm-g-great R-Rainbow Dash'' no matter how hard she tried Scootaloo could not hide the stutter in her voice. Taking notice of the way Scootaloo was acting she gave her a sad look. ''Hey Scoot, are you ok?'', tears were pricking at the corner of Scootaloo's eyes, she was lying to the one pony who gave her the confidence to believe in herself and never give up. She started to back up as Scoot started to let the sadness flow through her, she couldn't keep it in any longer, she started to cry, the Pegasus collapsed on the ground, the weight of her legs grew too heavy for her to handle. Rainbow was startled for a few seconds before walking over and putting her hooves around her non blood sister, after a few minutes, Rainbow Dash whispered in Scootaloo's ear. ''What happened?''. Scootaloo stood up, her eyes still wet as she told her story to Rainbow. ''A few days ago I went to ponyville hospital to check out why my wings are still so small, the doctor told me that I had a rare disability in my wings that are stopping them from growing, n-now I-I am here'' Scootaloo concluded, her tears flowing freely once again. Rainbow gave Scoot a sorry glance before speaking ''I am so so sorry Scootaloo'', turning around Scootaloo replied ''its ok, its not your fault Dash'' she said before running into a full gallop for home. Rainbow Dash yelled ''Scootaloo, WAIT!!'', it was too late, Scoot was long gone. Dash stood there before adding in a whisper ''oh, Scoot, don't worry, we will get through this.. together ''.Despite being not really in the mood for flight, the rainbow maned pony stretched out her cyan-blue wings and slowly lifted of into the clouds above. Scootaloo ran, she needed to be at home so no pony could see her tears, Scoot could barely see her house through her hazy eyes, the orange pony busted through her door and closed it behind her. Scootaloo fell to her hooves, shaking from her sobs as she curled her tail around her body, also letting her small filly wings drape over the small space they took up as she lay there, crying until she finally fell asleep. ''Huh?'' Scootaloo opened her light purple eyes as she yawned, her eyes were still red from the night before, and her mane was a tangled mess, but the orange mare had other things in mind . KNOCK KNOCK Scoot slowly got up and opened the door for whoever it was at this time of day. As soon as she cracked it open she was dragged outside by a pony with a blue coat whom she knew immediately, Scoot shielded herself from the sun so she could meet the smiling face of Rainbow Dash. ''Hiya Scootaloo, so, are you ready to go on a little trip'' Dash said a little too excitedly, Scootaloo was still tired and very much still sad from the last few days, so, in the nicest voice she could muster, Scootaloo responded '' Thanks for the offer, that, while it sounds cool, I will have to say no''. Rainbow pulled the other Pegasus off the ground and replied with a smirk on her face. ''Sorry, but this time you don't have a say'' with Scoot still in hoof she flew across Ponyville until the two ponies reached the local sweet shop, Sugarcube Corner. Rainbow Dash dropped the orange pony on the ground, holding her tail down so Scootaloo cant run away. Dash apologized to her. ''Listen Scoot, I really do care about you, that is why I gotta do what I gotta do'', Rainbow kicked open the doors to the shop and dragged Scootaloo inside. It was surprisingly dark, all the lights were off, Scootaloo looked at her sister and raised her eyebrow. ''Really Rainbow, you literality drag me all the way out here, to show me a dark room?''. ''SUPRISE SCOOTALOO!!!'' the orange mare yelped at the sudden shouting in the room, the lights blasted in her eyes as she fell to the floor. Scootaloo was helped up by a white unicorn, her friend, Sweetie Belle. ''Sorry is we scared you Scoot, but Rainbow Dash told me, Apple Bloom, and Pinkie Pie what happened, then Pinkie told us it was time for a party, so here it is''. Scootaloo looked around the room, there was orange confetti everywhere, streamers that were a dark shade of pink, and in the middle of everything was a big banner that had a picture of her on it, (drawn by her friends). Scootaloo was suddenly brought back to a different time, to a different party, the party that Pinkie had thrown for the Cutie Mark Crusaders after they were chosen to carry the Ponyville flag in the Eqestria Games. Scootaloo was brought back to reality as Apple Bloom tried to get her attention. ''Scootaloo, can you hear me, Scoot''. Scootaloo sat down on the floor, her eyes starting to water as she remembers what else had happened that day, that was the day that she had lost total faith in herself just because she couldn't fly. Pinkie went over to her '' Hey Scoot, you wanna have some cake?'' but the orange pony had completely blocked her out as she stood up and galloped out of Sugarcube corner, tears streaming down her cheeks. Author's Note feel free to share your thoughts Advice From An Old FriendScootaloo hung her head low, staring at the floor of her house. After five minutes of silence, Scoot turned around to stare at something on the wall, a poster of the greatest Wonderbolt in Eqestria, Rainbow dash. She kept her eyes locked to the poster, remembering all the times she would stop on the streets to watch the cyan pegasus do flips and spins in the air, all the sonic rainbooms, and most importantly, all the times that Rainbow was there to support her no matter what. ''Oh Dash, I am so, so sorry, all I ever wanted to do was fly with you, bust clouds with you, for you to see how cool I can be, but now...'' Scotaloo paused, not wanting to finish the sentence as her eyesight began to get blurry. Ever since she ran out of Sugarcube Corner, Scootaloo hasn't left the house, feeling to ashamed to show her face in Ponyville at the moment. She sat there for hours, not talking, not moving, just sitting there, doing nothing. Voices of her friends filled her head. The next morning, Scootaloo got out of bed and slowly trotted over to a poster on her wall, it was a Wonderbolt poster Dash had given her for her fifteenth birthday, it had signatures from every single bolt. The young mare sat on the boarded rough floors, her head high, as if on alert, she closed her eyes and whispered barely audible. ''Today I will go into town and hold my hopes and keep my head held high, and I. will try, not to cry...'' Scootaloo stood up and walked out the door, she started into a gallop as she headed to the train station for Canterlot. She arrived just in time to buy a ticket, take the next train, and relax. As the orange Pegasus stepped of the train, her hooves moved her along before she had time to react to the scenery that is Canterlot palace. As always, the building itself looked big and slightly intimating, but there were streamers on the walls outside. In all the commotion, Scootaloo almost forgot about the statue of Princess Twilight and her friends, she quickly glanced up at the stone Rainbow Dash before looking away again, Scootaloo was not going to just forget the real reason why she was here. Inside the castle it was pretty much the same as it was before Twilight took the throne, same walls, same stained glass windows, only a few new ones. As the mare approached the throne room she stopped to take a breath before continuing on. She glanced in the room only for her mouth to fall agape, Scoot had seen Twilight after her growth spurt, but, wow, she was not expecting this, she was so tall. Twilight's flowing purple mane swayed behind her like a waterfall , a smile plastered on her face and her giant wings unfolded when she spotted Scootaloo walking in to her throne room. Scootaloo stopped in front of the Princess and bowed, to her suprise, Twilight laughed. '' Oh, Scootaloo, when did you become so formal towards me, I was a princess a few years before I became the new ruler of Eqestria, you didn't bow to me then'' said Twilight while regaining herself. Scootaloo stood up and, for the first time in three days, she smiled, she smiled a real genuine smile, she responded in a sarcastic tone. ''I was just showing respect for our oh so strong, wise, and brave intelligent ruler, oh great Princess Twilight Sparkle''. The alicorn clearly tried to hide her smile as she folded her wings. '' So, Scoot, what brings you to Canterlot'' The princess asked her guest. Scootaloo's smile fell as she explained it to Twilight. ''You see, three days ago, I went to the docters to see why I could not fly, I was met with some bad news, to sum it all up I have a Flight disorder..'' In a few seconds The mare was wrapped in giant purple wings, comforted by the warmth of Twilight's fur, Scootaloo hugged back, enjoying the hug while it lasted. ''I am so, so, sorry, Scootaloo, I wish there was something I could do for you, but why did you come to me?'' The Pegasus broke away from the hug with a small smile on her face before responding with a glimmer of hope. ''I was kind of hoping there was a spell you happen to have that would let me fly'' At that comment, Twilight Sparkle flattened her ears against her head, her eyes looking suddenly dim as she tried to muster up the right words, at last, the alicorn began to speak. ''Scootaloo... I really do wish I could help but, using a spell to repair body parts is.. really risky, I would need to focus really, really hard for it to work, also, I could hurt you if I loose just a fraction of focus, I'm sorry''. The orange mare was taking in Twilight's words for a minute before exploding with sadness and rage. ''BUT, IT. IS. NOT. FAIR.! I WORKED SO, SO HARD TO FLY...'' Scootaloo calmed down realizing that she was getting alarmingly close to doing something she would regret, so she added in a hoarse whisper. ''Why should somepony like Bulk Biceps be able to fly but I cant, its just not fair..'' Once again, Twilight put her wings around Scootaloo, she tried to comfort the saddend mare. '' Scoot, Bulk didn't have a disability like you, his body just grew differently than other ponies, leaving his wings vulnerable to not grow properly. I am so, deeply, truly, sorry. Scootaloo, you are one of my friends, and I hate seeing a friend upset, so please smile, for you, and me, and your friends. Trust me, even a short a smile can go a long way.'' Scootaloo let herself go, she told Twilight what was really on her mind. ''I just wanted her to be proud of me..'' Twilight brought her in close and whispered softly ''I know, I will always be here to talk if you need me, Scootaloo'' Author's Note Hope you liked this new Chapter of Wings of a mare. tell me if you have any suggestions for future chapters. (I will try my hardest to put them into the story) A diamond reunionScootaloo was running as fast as she could through Ponyville, three minutes later she finally made it home and kicked the door closed before running to her bed, collapsing from exhaustion. After about five hours, Scootaloo woke up and slowly trotted over to the mirror to brush her mane, afterwards, she walked out the door. Ponyville was weird today, not the town, but the ponies in the town. They were giving her pitying glances, and some ponies stopped her in the street just to look at her, it was really weird. She guessed that this was the work of Rainbow, Pinkie Pie, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle, telling everything to the rest of town. Sccootaloo knew their heart was in the right place, but she kind of wished the whole town didn't know that she will always be grounded. Scootaloo was sitting on the bench in the park, when she saw a familiar shadow approach her. It was Diamond Tiara, like everypony else in this town, Diamond just stared at her with this look on her face, after a few seconds, the mare in front of her spoke. '' Hey, Scootaloo, I'm sorry.'' out of nowhere, the earth pony looked hurt, sad, and.. regretful all at the same time. the Pegasus wasn't sure how to respond, except the only way she knew how. '' Hi, Diamond Tiara, so I'm guessing you heard the news, who told you, I bet it was Sweetie.'' Scootaloo gave a knowing smile, only for Diamond Tiara to tell her otherwise. ''Actually, no, Sweetie didn't tell me anything. Silver Spoon and I were at Sugarcube Corner where Pinkie told us everything.'' Diamond Tiara explained, still having a hint of hurt in her voice. Scootaloo was about to say something when the earth pony continued. '' When Pinkie Pie told us, we were shocked, I told Silver Spoon I was going to look for you to tell you something...'' Diamond went on, '' We're sorry, for everything, I know sorry wont fix it but I just wanted it to get out there''. Scootaloo was shocked to hear those words from her, after they first became friends, the CMCs heard sorry a lot, but it went away after a few months, so Scoot was surprised. By the way her friend was looking at her, Scootaloo guessed she was taking a little long to respond, so, to the purple pony's surprise, Scootaloo let out a weak laugh. ''Ha, he, he. I told you, Tiara, you don't need to apologize for your past actions anymore than you already have, you've made amends... as for my.. forever lack of flight, everypony has already said sorry, you don't have to, tell Silver Spoon that too''. Scootaloo ended with a small smile on her face, she looked up to see the dismayed look on Diamond Tiara's face, her eyes were shining with fresh tears as she put her front hooves around a very confused Scootaloo. It was quiet, but over the soft cries of Tiara, Scootaloo could make out a short question. '' Scoot, do you remember the Ponyville flag carrying competition..'' Of coarse Scootaloo remembered that day, every detail, the images were still fresh in her mind. Scootaloo tried to respond, but the memories were replaying, more like a flood of images. Scootaloo ignored her thoughts so she could stay on the task at hoof, as an effort to comfort her friend, she asked. "Ya, I remember, why?". Diamond Tiara released the orange mare, looking down at her hooves, she responded. "If you remember, then you know what Silver and I said to you, after your routine" Scootaloo thought back to that day, she thought about all the different things that Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon said to her, like how they said that the CMCs routine would never ''take off'' if she couldn't fly. Scootaloo was mad at those two for a while after that, until she realised that if they hadn't made fun of her wings, she would've learned a important lesson about who she is. The orange mare wiped away her friend's tears before putting her hoof under her jaw, lifting it up to look in Tiara's eyes. Scootaloo gave a small smirk before she let herself tell the pink earth pony how much she remembered. "I remember every detail of it, my regretful friend, how you and your lacky told me that our routine would never, how did you word it, oh right!, "take off". How horrible I felt about my stupid small wings, how much I lost my self assteam, all because of you." Scootaloo let herself shed silent tears as she kept looking into Diamond's eyes, her friend had also started to cry, she tried to open her mouth to protest, but Scootaloo moved her hoof to her lips, shushing her as she continued. "I was...so..mad, at you... for, for being so rude, for months, I wanted to confront you, but, I never could. After you became our friend, I forgot all about it, the sadness, the anger.. it was all gone, until..you know." Scootaloo lifted her hoof off of Diamond Tiara's mouth to let the other mare speak. The earth pony just stared at her sadly, after two minutes, she spoke in a soft, sad, tone. "I never knew I hurt you..or anyone else that bad, I always thought that was the only way to fill that hole my mother made. No matter what mother said, it was no excuse for how I... For how much I hurt you, for how much I teased you girls. I'm sorry". Diamond finished, wrapping her hooves around the orange mare, Scootaloo returned the favor. As Scootaloo and Diamond Tiara parted ways, Scoot made sure this conversation did something for them both. After their history with eachother, having Tiara as a friend, even after all these years, still felt a little odd. Diamond still held a special place in Scootaloo's heart as a close friend, no matter what. Scootaloo walked away from the park with pride welling in her chest, knowing that she had just helped somepony feel better, it made her feel a little better herself. Scootaloo walked home, in a good spirit, she trotted inside her house, gently closed the door, layed down in bed, and fell into a peaceful sleep, ready for the next day. Author's Note Just so you all know, I may be ending this story next chapter. Also, I already have most of it planned out, so that the FINAL chapter of Wings Of A Mare might be sooner than the other chapters. (Sorry if it doesn't, I tried). Also a little spoiler, the next chapter is going to be named after the title of the story. So byee Wings Of A MareScootaloo woke up the next morning, after yesterday, Scootaloo had decided to talk to her friends, just to apologize for what happened at the party. Scootaloo trotted to the corner of her room, picked up her scooter that was transformed from filly size to mare size by Twilight, she positioned it right in front of her door before going back for her helmet. Scoot hadn't ridden her scooter in what felt like forever, for her, riding it had felt like the closest to flying, the rush, the adrenaline, the tricks that sometimes left herself airborne, it was awesome. Scootaloo stopped in front of Sweet Apple Acers, she walked toward the barn, looking for Apple Bloom. Scootaloo heard the sound of hooves approaching her, followed by a voice behind her. " Hey Scootaloo, what're you doing 'round these parts.'' the Pegasus turned around to see Apple Bloom's older sister Applejack standing in front of her with a kind smile. Scootaloo answered the earth pony's question. '' Hi Applejack, I was just looking for Apple Bloom, have you seen her ?'' AJ raised her hoof before responding. '' No, I haven't seen my sister in a few days, the little I did see of her, the said something about Pinkie Pie and a party, but that was it'' Applejack finished. Scootaloo had only one more question for the other mare. '' Have you seen Sweetie Belle?''. The orange earth pony pointed towards town. '' Sweetie is at the Carousel boutique while Yona and Sandbar go to Yakyakinstan to visit Rarity''. Scootaloo was gone in an instant. She could not wait another second to get there so she zoomed off the farm and into Ponyville. Scootaloo knocked on the door to the dress shop, when the door opened, a certain yellow Pegasus emerged, she had light pink hair that was tied into a loop, held together by a blue flower clip. Scootaloo had a look of confusion on her face. '' Fluttershy? what the hay are you doing here?'' The yellow mare let out a small laugh before speaking just above a whisper. ''Sweetie asked me to come over to help out while Yona and Sandbar are out of town, it hasn't been very nice with Rarity living in Yakyakistan either''. Fluttershy lightly ruffled her wings, she then went back inside. After a minute, another pony came out of the shop, this time it was Sweetie Belle, the unicorn gave Scootaloo a small smile, Scootaloo returned the favor. ''Hey, Sweetie, I just wanted to apologize for what happened at Sugarcube Corner the other day, I was upset and wasn't thinking straight, sorry''. Sweetie Belle's smile still remained as she responded. ''Its ok Scoot, we're friends after all, Cutie Mark Crusaders forever'' Sweetie gasped. '' Sorry Scootaloo, I have to go''. The unicorn ran down the streets of town and out of sight, Scootaloo blinked in confusion, her friend had never acted so peculiar before. The orange Pegasus started to walk home, she was halfway there when she was tackled to the ground by a strong force, Scootaloo was blindfolded by a piece of cloth, she caught a glimpse of the pony who was now trying to pick her up. The other pony had a blue coat, and since she was lifting her, Scoot figured out that the other pony was a Pegasus, with all the clues, Scootaloo's mind immediately went to Rainbow Dash, ''what now, Dash'' Scootaloo whispered. After what felt like forever, Scootaloo hit the ground with a thud, she tried to stand up but wobbled and fell down. Even though she couldn't see, Scootaloo looked up at where she was dropped from. ''Rainbow Dash!!, I know its you, what are you up to Dash''. To Scootaloo's surprise, Rainbow stayed silent, the other Pegasus put her wing on her younger sister's back, guiding her up a wooden ramp. It was weird for Scootaloo, this place felt all to familiar, she suddenly started to remember laughs, cheers, and meetings in this place. Rainbow stopped, so did Scootaloo, the orange mare started to hear a soft hum of a song, followed by lyrics. ''we would never have left you to be sad alone, if your going down, we go down together, not alone'' After that verse came another one, this time by a different voice. ''Life can sometimes be unfair, just call out, we will be there''. The two voices sang the last part in unison. ''Because we are the Cutie Mark Crusaders, together, forever''. Rainbow Dash finally took the blindfold off of Scootaloo, the first thing she saw was the smiling faces of Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle looking at her. Scootaloo looked away, with a voice with a tone of sadness, Scootaloo replied tp her friends smiles. ''If your trying to make me forget what happened in the last few days, it wont work''. Apple Bloom grabbed Scootaoo's shoulders, looked in her purple eyes, and stated. '' No, Scootaloo, we aren't tryin' to make you forget a thing, we just want to make it better, what we want is our Scootaloo back''. Apple bloom put her hooves back on the wood floor, a look of sadness plastered on her face, in the background, Sweetie also looked sad before stepping beside Apple Bloom, continuing her friend's comment. ''We want our friend back. We want the pony who is just as adventurous as Rainbow Dash herself, the pony who never gives up on something, the pony who used to have the spark that made her our Scootaloo''. Scootaloo felt a small twinge of anger inside her, it started to rapidly grow before she could control it, she broke. ''That Scootaloo had hopeless , worthless, dreams! Dreams that meant nothing. I had accepted that I may never fly, but now I hear it out loud, it feels worse than ever, because now its real!! It sucks, ok, I admit it, it feels worse than anything because now I know what its like to have your dreams crushed! I wanted to fly with Rainbow, for her to see how totally awesome I am. I wanted to be a Pegasus who's friends were proud of her, not worthless''!! Scootaloo sat down, not able to handle how heavy she felt. She started to cry. Apple Bloom and Sweetie hugged their friend, Apple Bloom released herself from the hug so she could say something for everypony to hear. ''Scoot, listen, I may not understand what your feelin' right now, I never will, but I can tell you that I'm sorry, I always will be, but right now, I need us to work through this, together. Like always, you , me, and Sweetie Belle''. Sweetie also responded to Scootaloo. ''I love you, Scoot, Your an awesome friend, and Rainbow thinks your awesome too, right''? Sweetie looked at Dash, she nodded as she replied. ''Of course your awesome, Scootaloo, I have always thought that. Scootaloo, your special, you have a rare gift, you help ponies learn things about themselves, help them find their destiny, not many ponies can do that, but you can. I've said it before, it just does not matter if you can fly or not, your awesome either way, and I'm proud to call you my sister''. Rainbow wrapped her blue wings around Scootaloo. Scootaloo smiled, she hugged her friends back as she made out a sentence. ''Thank you, I may not be ok now, or even in a few weeks, but eventually, I- we will be ok. I may still have the wings of a filly, but as long as I have you guys, I know in my heart, that I will always have the wings of a mare''. Author's Note I know this was a little longer, but I wanted to have all my basis covered. I know this might be a little disappointing, but I wanted to end it with a moment of friendship from the cmcs with a sister moment with Dashie. ALT ENDING- ShortAuthor's Note This is not an extension to the main story nor is it a side story, just an alternant ending that I came up with. ALT ENDING- Short On her way home, Scootaloo ran into Rainbow Dash. Rainbow met her with a warm smile, Scootaloo frowned at her sister's weird staring. ''Hi, Dash, what's the smile for". Rainbow Dash spoke as if she was about to cry. '' She did it", Scootaloo was confused, she questioned Rainbow's vagueness. ''Who did what, Rainbow Dash?'', Scootaloo pressed on, Rainbow kept looking at her with the most serene smile that only Fluttershy could muster. ''Twilight sent word from Canterlot, she found a way. Scootaloo, she found a way to let you fly". Scootaloo's pupils shrank, a smile on her face as tears were forming in her eyes. Scootaloo was in disbelief. ''What?, bu-but I went to go see her, she said it was impossible, she said that no spell could ever fix my wings''. The Pegasus looked at her wings. Rainbow reassured her. '' Twi said that she cant fix your wings, nor could she grow them with magic, but she did find a way for you to fly'' A glimmer of hope shimmered in the orange mare. ''How" was all that could come out of her mouth as she looked into Rainbow Dash's eyes. '' The same way I made Rarity fly, that sure taught her a lesson in being supportive'' Twilight Sparkle came up from behind Rainbow Dash with a smirk on her face. Scootaloo thought back to how Sweetie Belle's eldest sister flew to Cloudsdale, with confusion she put the pieces into place. Finally, Scootaloo looked at Twilight with curiosity. ''You gave Rarity butterfly wings Twilight, but that's different, Rarity was a unicorn, I am still Pegasus, so that spell would be a dead end'' The alicorn had an amused look on her face as she explained. ''That is true, but, the spell works on every creature, even if they already have wings. I also know that you know that the spell was temporary, am I right?''. Scootaloo smiled with tears in her eyes. '' I don't care, Twilight, I don't care if it is only for a few minutes or hours. I don't care. If it means I get to do what I was meant to do my whole life, even just for a while, I'll do it''. Princess Twilight smiled, with her glowing horn, she enveloped Scootaloo in magic, light blinded the young mare, after a few seconds she she passed out on the ground. ''Sootaloo'' Rainbow whispered, she turned to her friend. ''What did you do to her Twi'' Twilight shot a confused glance at Dash ''Nothing'' Rainbow was starting to have a hint of anger towards Twilight. '' She passed out Twillight, Rar didn't pass out once''. Twilight pondered what her friend was saying before coming up with an answer. ''Rarity had been through a magical prosses before, with the elements of harmony. The only magical prosses Scootaloo had ever been close to being part of was getting her cutie mark''. Rainbow calmed down before walking away. '' You get Sweetie and Scoot, I'll get Apple Bloom, meet you at the castle balcony''. Twilight nodded before walking in the opposite direction. Scootaloo opened her purple eyes to four familiar ponies. Scootaloo slowly started to stir. '' Girls, Rainbow, Twilight, where am I''. Apple Bloom helped her friend up as she spoke. '' We're at Twilight's old castle, and you are here to fly'' Scootaloo remembered what had happened only a few minutes ago. Scootaloo had only one question. '' Are the wings there?". Sweetie Belle went up to her. ''Yes, they are there, and they are amazing'' Scootaloo smiled in excitement. ''Can I do it yet'' Scootaloo asked, Twilight giggled. ''Yes, go ahead Scoot'' Twilight smiled. Scootaloo stepped up to the balcony, she spread her new temporary wings, gently flapping them as she lifts off the ground, picking up wing speed, Scootaloo took off into the skies above.
RealizationScootaloo sat on her bed, her head was spinning as she pondered those words ''you will never fly..'' she almost couldn't believe it. Ever since she was a filly, all Scootaloo ever wanted was to fly with her idol, Rainbow Dash, but now she was a full grown mare and her wings are still as small as ever. The Pegasus got of her bed as she walked to a small wooden chest on the other side of the room, her hooves were shaking when she opened the chest, after rummaging through her stuff she found what she was looking for, a picture of her and her best friends, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, back when they were young. Tears started to come from the orange mare's eyes as she stared at the picture, thinking back to the days when the CMC tried to earn their cutie marks, when they finally achived their goals...back when she had hope she would one day soar in the clouds next to her sister. Scootaloo was walking through Ponyville, looking at the ground, not daring to look at the sky.. not even for one of Dash's airshows, she walked longer than she normally did, avoiding the busiest spots of town. Scootaloo was nearing the end of her walk when she heard somepony yell ''Look out BELOW!!'', without any time to react Scootaloo ducked, knowing full well that was not going to protect her. CRASH. The orange mare was in shock from the impact, when she opened her eyes she saw a certain rainbow maned pegasus on top of her, Scootaloo got up from under the other pony and questioned her. ''Rainbow, why did you crash into me?'', Rainbow Dash stood up with a guilty look on her face as she explained herself ''Sorry Scoot, but I totally messed up on a new trick I was working on'' she said as she brushed of her wings while she continued ''so, ya, what's up with you Scootaloo''. Scoot flinched, of all the questions Dash could have asked she chose the one she didn't want to answer, she responded as best she could. ''I'm-g-great R-Rainbow Dash'' no matter how hard she tried Scootaloo could not hide the stutter in her voice. Taking notice of the way Scootaloo was acting she gave her a sad look. ''Hey Scoot, are you ok?'', tears were pricking at the corner of Scootaloo's eyes, she was lying to the one pony who gave her the confidence to believe in herself and never give up. She started to back up as Scoot started to let the sadness flow through her, she couldn't keep it in any longer, she started to cry, the Pegasus collapsed on the ground, the weight of her legs grew too heavy for her to handle. Rainbow was startled for a few seconds before walking over and putting her hooves around her non blood sister, after a few minutes, Rainbow Dash whispered in Scootaloo's ear. ''What happened?''. Scootaloo stood up, her eyes still wet as she told her story to Rainbow. ''A few days ago I went to ponyville hospital to check out why my wings are still so small, the doctor told me that I had a rare disability in my wings that are stopping them from growing, n-now I-I am here'' Scootaloo concluded, her tears flowing freely once again. Rainbow gave Scoot a sorry glance before speaking ''I am so so sorry Scootaloo'', turning around Scootaloo replied ''its ok, its not your fault Dash'' she said before running into a full gallop for home. Rainbow Dash yelled ''Scootaloo, WAIT!!'', it was too late, Scoot was long gone. Dash stood there before adding in a whisper ''oh, Scoot, don't worry, we will get through this.. together ''.Despite being not really in the mood for flight, the rainbow maned pony stretched out her cyan-blue wings and slowly lifted of into the clouds above. Scootaloo ran, she needed to be at home so no pony could see her tears, Scoot could barely see her house through her hazy eyes, the orange pony busted through her door and closed it behind her. Scootaloo fell to her hooves, shaking from her sobs as she curled her tail around her body, also letting her small filly wings drape over the small space they took up as she lay there, crying until she finally fell asleep. ''Huh?'' Scootaloo opened her light purple eyes as she yawned, her eyes were still red from the night before, and her mane was a tangled mess, but the orange mare had other things in mind . KNOCK KNOCK Scoot slowly got up and opened the door for whoever it was at this time of day. As soon as she cracked it open she was dragged outside by a pony with a blue coat whom she knew immediately, Scoot shielded herself from the sun so she could meet the smiling face of Rainbow Dash. ''Hiya Scootaloo, so, are you ready to go on a little trip'' Dash said a little too excitedly, Scootaloo was still tired and very much still sad from the last few days, so, in the nicest voice she could muster, Scootaloo responded '' Thanks for the offer, that, while it sounds cool, I will have to say no''. Rainbow pulled the other Pegasus off the ground and replied with a smirk on her face. ''Sorry, but this time you don't have a say'' with Scoot still in hoof she flew across Ponyville until the two ponies reached the local sweet shop, Sugarcube Corner. Rainbow Dash dropped the orange pony on the ground, holding her tail down so Scootaloo cant run away. Dash apologized to her. ''Listen Scoot, I really do care about you, that is why I gotta do what I gotta do'', Rainbow kicked open the doors to the shop and dragged Scootaloo inside. It was surprisingly dark, all the lights were off, Scootaloo looked at her sister and raised her eyebrow. ''Really Rainbow, you literality drag me all the way out here, to show me a dark room?''. ''SUPRISE SCOOTALOO!!!'' the orange mare yelped at the sudden shouting in the room, the lights blasted in her eyes as she fell to the floor. Scootaloo was helped up by a white unicorn, her friend, Sweetie Belle. ''Sorry is we scared you Scoot, but Rainbow Dash told me, Apple Bloom, and Pinkie Pie what happened, then Pinkie told us it was time for a party, so here it is''. Scootaloo looked around the room, there was orange confetti everywhere, streamers that were a dark shade of pink, and in the middle of everything was a big banner that had a picture of her on it, (drawn by her friends). Scootaloo was suddenly brought back to a different time, to a different party, the party that Pinkie had thrown for the Cutie Mark Crusaders after they were chosen to carry the Ponyville flag in the Eqestria Games. Scootaloo was brought back to reality as Apple Bloom tried to get her attention. ''Scootaloo, can you hear me, Scoot''. Scootaloo sat down on the floor, her eyes starting to water as she remembers what else had happened that day, that was the day that she had lost total faith in herself just because she couldn't fly. Pinkie went over to her '' Hey Scoot, you wanna have some cake?'' but the orange pony had completely blocked her out as she stood up and galloped out of Sugarcube corner, tears streaming down her cheeks. Author's Note feel free to share your thoughts
Advice From An Old FriendScootaloo hung her head low, staring at the floor of her house. After five minutes of silence, Scoot turned around to stare at something on the wall, a poster of the greatest Wonderbolt in Eqestria, Rainbow dash. She kept her eyes locked to the poster, remembering all the times she would stop on the streets to watch the cyan pegasus do flips and spins in the air, all the sonic rainbooms, and most importantly, all the times that Rainbow was there to support her no matter what. ''Oh Dash, I am so, so sorry, all I ever wanted to do was fly with you, bust clouds with you, for you to see how cool I can be, but now...'' Scotaloo paused, not wanting to finish the sentence as her eyesight began to get blurry. Ever since she ran out of Sugarcube Corner, Scootaloo hasn't left the house, feeling to ashamed to show her face in Ponyville at the moment. She sat there for hours, not talking, not moving, just sitting there, doing nothing. Voices of her friends filled her head. The next morning, Scootaloo got out of bed and slowly trotted over to a poster on her wall, it was a Wonderbolt poster Dash had given her for her fifteenth birthday, it had signatures from every single bolt. The young mare sat on the boarded rough floors, her head high, as if on alert, she closed her eyes and whispered barely audible. ''Today I will go into town and hold my hopes and keep my head held high, and I. will try, not to cry...'' Scootaloo stood up and walked out the door, she started into a gallop as she headed to the train station for Canterlot. She arrived just in time to buy a ticket, take the next train, and relax. As the orange Pegasus stepped of the train, her hooves moved her along before she had time to react to the scenery that is Canterlot palace. As always, the building itself looked big and slightly intimating, but there were streamers on the walls outside. In all the commotion, Scootaloo almost forgot about the statue of Princess Twilight and her friends, she quickly glanced up at the stone Rainbow Dash before looking away again, Scootaloo was not going to just forget the real reason why she was here. Inside the castle it was pretty much the same as it was before Twilight took the throne, same walls, same stained glass windows, only a few new ones. As the mare approached the throne room she stopped to take a breath before continuing on. She glanced in the room only for her mouth to fall agape, Scoot had seen Twilight after her growth spurt, but, wow, she was not expecting this, she was so tall. Twilight's flowing purple mane swayed behind her like a waterfall , a smile plastered on her face and her giant wings unfolded when she spotted Scootaloo walking in to her throne room. Scootaloo stopped in front of the Princess and bowed, to her suprise, Twilight laughed. '' Oh, Scootaloo, when did you become so formal towards me, I was a princess a few years before I became the new ruler of Eqestria, you didn't bow to me then'' said Twilight while regaining herself. Scootaloo stood up and, for the first time in three days, she smiled, she smiled a real genuine smile, she responded in a sarcastic tone. ''I was just showing respect for our oh so strong, wise, and brave intelligent ruler, oh great Princess Twilight Sparkle''. The alicorn clearly tried to hide her smile as she folded her wings. '' So, Scoot, what brings you to Canterlot'' The princess asked her guest. Scootaloo's smile fell as she explained it to Twilight. ''You see, three days ago, I went to the docters to see why I could not fly, I was met with some bad news, to sum it all up I have a Flight disorder..'' In a few seconds The mare was wrapped in giant purple wings, comforted by the warmth of Twilight's fur, Scootaloo hugged back, enjoying the hug while it lasted. ''I am so, so, sorry, Scootaloo, I wish there was something I could do for you, but why did you come to me?'' The Pegasus broke away from the hug with a small smile on her face before responding with a glimmer of hope. ''I was kind of hoping there was a spell you happen to have that would let me fly'' At that comment, Twilight Sparkle flattened her ears against her head, her eyes looking suddenly dim as she tried to muster up the right words, at last, the alicorn began to speak. ''Scootaloo... I really do wish I could help but, using a spell to repair body parts is.. really risky, I would need to focus really, really hard for it to work, also, I could hurt you if I loose just a fraction of focus, I'm sorry''. The orange mare was taking in Twilight's words for a minute before exploding with sadness and rage. ''BUT, IT. IS. NOT. FAIR.! I WORKED SO, SO HARD TO FLY...'' Scootaloo calmed down realizing that she was getting alarmingly close to doing something she would regret, so she added in a hoarse whisper. ''Why should somepony like Bulk Biceps be able to fly but I cant, its just not fair..'' Once again, Twilight put her wings around Scootaloo, she tried to comfort the saddend mare. '' Scoot, Bulk didn't have a disability like you, his body just grew differently than other ponies, leaving his wings vulnerable to not grow properly. I am so, deeply, truly, sorry. Scootaloo, you are one of my friends, and I hate seeing a friend upset, so please smile, for you, and me, and your friends. Trust me, even a short a smile can go a long way.'' Scootaloo let herself go, she told Twilight what was really on her mind. ''I just wanted her to be proud of me..'' Twilight brought her in close and whispered softly ''I know, I will always be here to talk if you need me, Scootaloo'' Author's Note Hope you liked this new Chapter of Wings of a mare. tell me if you have any suggestions for future chapters. (I will try my hardest to put them into the story)
A diamond reunionScootaloo was running as fast as she could through Ponyville, three minutes later she finally made it home and kicked the door closed before running to her bed, collapsing from exhaustion. After about five hours, Scootaloo woke up and slowly trotted over to the mirror to brush her mane, afterwards, she walked out the door. Ponyville was weird today, not the town, but the ponies in the town. They were giving her pitying glances, and some ponies stopped her in the street just to look at her, it was really weird. She guessed that this was the work of Rainbow, Pinkie Pie, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle, telling everything to the rest of town. Sccootaloo knew their heart was in the right place, but she kind of wished the whole town didn't know that she will always be grounded. Scootaloo was sitting on the bench in the park, when she saw a familiar shadow approach her. It was Diamond Tiara, like everypony else in this town, Diamond just stared at her with this look on her face, after a few seconds, the mare in front of her spoke. '' Hey, Scootaloo, I'm sorry.'' out of nowhere, the earth pony looked hurt, sad, and.. regretful all at the same time. the Pegasus wasn't sure how to respond, except the only way she knew how. '' Hi, Diamond Tiara, so I'm guessing you heard the news, who told you, I bet it was Sweetie.'' Scootaloo gave a knowing smile, only for Diamond Tiara to tell her otherwise. ''Actually, no, Sweetie didn't tell me anything. Silver Spoon and I were at Sugarcube Corner where Pinkie told us everything.'' Diamond Tiara explained, still having a hint of hurt in her voice. Scootaloo was about to say something when the earth pony continued. '' When Pinkie Pie told us, we were shocked, I told Silver Spoon I was going to look for you to tell you something...'' Diamond went on, '' We're sorry, for everything, I know sorry wont fix it but I just wanted it to get out there''. Scootaloo was shocked to hear those words from her, after they first became friends, the CMCs heard sorry a lot, but it went away after a few months, so Scoot was surprised. By the way her friend was looking at her, Scootaloo guessed she was taking a little long to respond, so, to the purple pony's surprise, Scootaloo let out a weak laugh. ''Ha, he, he. I told you, Tiara, you don't need to apologize for your past actions anymore than you already have, you've made amends... as for my.. forever lack of flight, everypony has already said sorry, you don't have to, tell Silver Spoon that too''. Scootaloo ended with a small smile on her face, she looked up to see the dismayed look on Diamond Tiara's face, her eyes were shining with fresh tears as she put her front hooves around a very confused Scootaloo. It was quiet, but over the soft cries of Tiara, Scootaloo could make out a short question. '' Scoot, do you remember the Ponyville flag carrying competition..'' Of coarse Scootaloo remembered that day, every detail, the images were still fresh in her mind. Scootaloo tried to respond, but the memories were replaying, more like a flood of images. Scootaloo ignored her thoughts so she could stay on the task at hoof, as an effort to comfort her friend, she asked. "Ya, I remember, why?". Diamond Tiara released the orange mare, looking down at her hooves, she responded. "If you remember, then you know what Silver and I said to you, after your routine" Scootaloo thought back to that day, she thought about all the different things that Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon said to her, like how they said that the CMCs routine would never ''take off'' if she couldn't fly. Scootaloo was mad at those two for a while after that, until she realised that if they hadn't made fun of her wings, she would've learned a important lesson about who she is. The orange mare wiped away her friend's tears before putting her hoof under her jaw, lifting it up to look in Tiara's eyes. Scootaloo gave a small smirk before she let herself tell the pink earth pony how much she remembered. "I remember every detail of it, my regretful friend, how you and your lacky told me that our routine would never, how did you word it, oh right!, "take off". How horrible I felt about my stupid small wings, how much I lost my self assteam, all because of you." Scootaloo let herself shed silent tears as she kept looking into Diamond's eyes, her friend had also started to cry, she tried to open her mouth to protest, but Scootaloo moved her hoof to her lips, shushing her as she continued. "I was...so..mad, at you... for, for being so rude, for months, I wanted to confront you, but, I never could. After you became our friend, I forgot all about it, the sadness, the anger.. it was all gone, until..you know." Scootaloo lifted her hoof off of Diamond Tiara's mouth to let the other mare speak. The earth pony just stared at her sadly, after two minutes, she spoke in a soft, sad, tone. "I never knew I hurt you..or anyone else that bad, I always thought that was the only way to fill that hole my mother made. No matter what mother said, it was no excuse for how I... For how much I hurt you, for how much I teased you girls. I'm sorry". Diamond finished, wrapping her hooves around the orange mare, Scootaloo returned the favor. As Scootaloo and Diamond Tiara parted ways, Scoot made sure this conversation did something for them both. After their history with eachother, having Tiara as a friend, even after all these years, still felt a little odd. Diamond still held a special place in Scootaloo's heart as a close friend, no matter what. Scootaloo walked away from the park with pride welling in her chest, knowing that she had just helped somepony feel better, it made her feel a little better herself. Scootaloo walked home, in a good spirit, she trotted inside her house, gently closed the door, layed down in bed, and fell into a peaceful sleep, ready for the next day. Author's Note Just so you all know, I may be ending this story next chapter. Also, I already have most of it planned out, so that the FINAL chapter of Wings Of A Mare might be sooner than the other chapters. (Sorry if it doesn't, I tried). Also a little spoiler, the next chapter is going to be named after the title of the story. So byee
Wings Of A MareScootaloo woke up the next morning, after yesterday, Scootaloo had decided to talk to her friends, just to apologize for what happened at the party. Scootaloo trotted to the corner of her room, picked up her scooter that was transformed from filly size to mare size by Twilight, she positioned it right in front of her door before going back for her helmet. Scoot hadn't ridden her scooter in what felt like forever, for her, riding it had felt like the closest to flying, the rush, the adrenaline, the tricks that sometimes left herself airborne, it was awesome. Scootaloo stopped in front of Sweet Apple Acers, she walked toward the barn, looking for Apple Bloom. Scootaloo heard the sound of hooves approaching her, followed by a voice behind her. " Hey Scootaloo, what're you doing 'round these parts.'' the Pegasus turned around to see Apple Bloom's older sister Applejack standing in front of her with a kind smile. Scootaloo answered the earth pony's question. '' Hi Applejack, I was just looking for Apple Bloom, have you seen her ?'' AJ raised her hoof before responding. '' No, I haven't seen my sister in a few days, the little I did see of her, the said something about Pinkie Pie and a party, but that was it'' Applejack finished. Scootaloo had only one more question for the other mare. '' Have you seen Sweetie Belle?''. The orange earth pony pointed towards town. '' Sweetie is at the Carousel boutique while Yona and Sandbar go to Yakyakinstan to visit Rarity''. Scootaloo was gone in an instant. She could not wait another second to get there so she zoomed off the farm and into Ponyville. Scootaloo knocked on the door to the dress shop, when the door opened, a certain yellow Pegasus emerged, she had light pink hair that was tied into a loop, held together by a blue flower clip. Scootaloo had a look of confusion on her face. '' Fluttershy? what the hay are you doing here?'' The yellow mare let out a small laugh before speaking just above a whisper. ''Sweetie asked me to come over to help out while Yona and Sandbar are out of town, it hasn't been very nice with Rarity living in Yakyakistan either''. Fluttershy lightly ruffled her wings, she then went back inside. After a minute, another pony came out of the shop, this time it was Sweetie Belle, the unicorn gave Scootaloo a small smile, Scootaloo returned the favor. ''Hey, Sweetie, I just wanted to apologize for what happened at Sugarcube Corner the other day, I was upset and wasn't thinking straight, sorry''. Sweetie Belle's smile still remained as she responded. ''Its ok Scoot, we're friends after all, Cutie Mark Crusaders forever'' Sweetie gasped. '' Sorry Scootaloo, I have to go''. The unicorn ran down the streets of town and out of sight, Scootaloo blinked in confusion, her friend had never acted so peculiar before. The orange Pegasus started to walk home, she was halfway there when she was tackled to the ground by a strong force, Scootaloo was blindfolded by a piece of cloth, she caught a glimpse of the pony who was now trying to pick her up. The other pony had a blue coat, and since she was lifting her, Scoot figured out that the other pony was a Pegasus, with all the clues, Scootaloo's mind immediately went to Rainbow Dash, ''what now, Dash'' Scootaloo whispered. After what felt like forever, Scootaloo hit the ground with a thud, she tried to stand up but wobbled and fell down. Even though she couldn't see, Scootaloo looked up at where she was dropped from. ''Rainbow Dash!!, I know its you, what are you up to Dash''. To Scootaloo's surprise, Rainbow stayed silent, the other Pegasus put her wing on her younger sister's back, guiding her up a wooden ramp. It was weird for Scootaloo, this place felt all to familiar, she suddenly started to remember laughs, cheers, and meetings in this place. Rainbow stopped, so did Scootaloo, the orange mare started to hear a soft hum of a song, followed by lyrics. ''we would never have left you to be sad alone, if your going down, we go down together, not alone'' After that verse came another one, this time by a different voice. ''Life can sometimes be unfair, just call out, we will be there''. The two voices sang the last part in unison. ''Because we are the Cutie Mark Crusaders, together, forever''. Rainbow Dash finally took the blindfold off of Scootaloo, the first thing she saw was the smiling faces of Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle looking at her. Scootaloo looked away, with a voice with a tone of sadness, Scootaloo replied tp her friends smiles. ''If your trying to make me forget what happened in the last few days, it wont work''. Apple Bloom grabbed Scootaoo's shoulders, looked in her purple eyes, and stated. '' No, Scootaloo, we aren't tryin' to make you forget a thing, we just want to make it better, what we want is our Scootaloo back''. Apple bloom put her hooves back on the wood floor, a look of sadness plastered on her face, in the background, Sweetie also looked sad before stepping beside Apple Bloom, continuing her friend's comment. ''We want our friend back. We want the pony who is just as adventurous as Rainbow Dash herself, the pony who never gives up on something, the pony who used to have the spark that made her our Scootaloo''. Scootaloo felt a small twinge of anger inside her, it started to rapidly grow before she could control it, she broke. ''That Scootaloo had hopeless , worthless, dreams! Dreams that meant nothing. I had accepted that I may never fly, but now I hear it out loud, it feels worse than ever, because now its real!! It sucks, ok, I admit it, it feels worse than anything because now I know what its like to have your dreams crushed! I wanted to fly with Rainbow, for her to see how totally awesome I am. I wanted to be a Pegasus who's friends were proud of her, not worthless''!! Scootaloo sat down, not able to handle how heavy she felt. She started to cry. Apple Bloom and Sweetie hugged their friend, Apple Bloom released herself from the hug so she could say something for everypony to hear. ''Scoot, listen, I may not understand what your feelin' right now, I never will, but I can tell you that I'm sorry, I always will be, but right now, I need us to work through this, together. Like always, you , me, and Sweetie Belle''. Sweetie also responded to Scootaloo. ''I love you, Scoot, Your an awesome friend, and Rainbow thinks your awesome too, right''? Sweetie looked at Dash, she nodded as she replied. ''Of course your awesome, Scootaloo, I have always thought that. Scootaloo, your special, you have a rare gift, you help ponies learn things about themselves, help them find their destiny, not many ponies can do that, but you can. I've said it before, it just does not matter if you can fly or not, your awesome either way, and I'm proud to call you my sister''. Rainbow wrapped her blue wings around Scootaloo. Scootaloo smiled, she hugged her friends back as she made out a sentence. ''Thank you, I may not be ok now, or even in a few weeks, but eventually, I- we will be ok. I may still have the wings of a filly, but as long as I have you guys, I know in my heart, that I will always have the wings of a mare''. Author's Note I know this was a little longer, but I wanted to have all my basis covered. I know this might be a little disappointing, but I wanted to end it with a moment of friendship from the cmcs with a sister moment with Dashie.
ALT ENDING- ShortAuthor's Note This is not an extension to the main story nor is it a side story, just an alternant ending that I came up with. ALT ENDING- Short On her way home, Scootaloo ran into Rainbow Dash. Rainbow met her with a warm smile, Scootaloo frowned at her sister's weird staring. ''Hi, Dash, what's the smile for". Rainbow Dash spoke as if she was about to cry. '' She did it", Scootaloo was confused, she questioned Rainbow's vagueness. ''Who did what, Rainbow Dash?'', Scootaloo pressed on, Rainbow kept looking at her with the most serene smile that only Fluttershy could muster. ''Twilight sent word from Canterlot, she found a way. Scootaloo, she found a way to let you fly". Scootaloo's pupils shrank, a smile on her face as tears were forming in her eyes. Scootaloo was in disbelief. ''What?, bu-but I went to go see her, she said it was impossible, she said that no spell could ever fix my wings''. The Pegasus looked at her wings. Rainbow reassured her. '' Twi said that she cant fix your wings, nor could she grow them with magic, but she did find a way for you to fly'' A glimmer of hope shimmered in the orange mare. ''How" was all that could come out of her mouth as she looked into Rainbow Dash's eyes. '' The same way I made Rarity fly, that sure taught her a lesson in being supportive'' Twilight Sparkle came up from behind Rainbow Dash with a smirk on her face. Scootaloo thought back to how Sweetie Belle's eldest sister flew to Cloudsdale, with confusion she put the pieces into place. Finally, Scootaloo looked at Twilight with curiosity. ''You gave Rarity butterfly wings Twilight, but that's different, Rarity was a unicorn, I am still Pegasus, so that spell would be a dead end'' The alicorn had an amused look on her face as she explained. ''That is true, but, the spell works on every creature, even if they already have wings. I also know that you know that the spell was temporary, am I right?''. Scootaloo smiled with tears in her eyes. '' I don't care, Twilight, I don't care if it is only for a few minutes or hours. I don't care. If it means I get to do what I was meant to do my whole life, even just for a while, I'll do it''. Princess Twilight smiled, with her glowing horn, she enveloped Scootaloo in magic, light blinded the young mare, after a few seconds she she passed out on the ground. ''Sootaloo'' Rainbow whispered, she turned to her friend. ''What did you do to her Twi'' Twilight shot a confused glance at Dash ''Nothing'' Rainbow was starting to have a hint of anger towards Twilight. '' She passed out Twillight, Rar didn't pass out once''. Twilight pondered what her friend was saying before coming up with an answer. ''Rarity had been through a magical prosses before, with the elements of harmony. The only magical prosses Scootaloo had ever been close to being part of was getting her cutie mark''. Rainbow calmed down before walking away. '' You get Sweetie and Scoot, I'll get Apple Bloom, meet you at the castle balcony''. Twilight nodded before walking in the opposite direction. Scootaloo opened her purple eyes to four familiar ponies. Scootaloo slowly started to stir. '' Girls, Rainbow, Twilight, where am I''. Apple Bloom helped her friend up as she spoke. '' We're at Twilight's old castle, and you are here to fly'' Scootaloo remembered what had happened only a few minutes ago. Scootaloo had only one question. '' Are the wings there?". Sweetie Belle went up to her. ''Yes, they are there, and they are amazing'' Scootaloo smiled in excitement. ''Can I do it yet'' Scootaloo asked, Twilight giggled. ''Yes, go ahead Scoot'' Twilight smiled. Scootaloo stepped up to the balcony, she spread her new temporary wings, gently flapping them as she lifts off the ground, picking up wing speed, Scootaloo took off into the skies above.
