Rainbow Dash couldn't help but run a hoof through Scootaloo's mane.

"So...I take it you read everything. I'm glad your not mad at me." Rainbow Dash said. "I don't know what I'd do if you were mad at me." She added.

"Aw come on mom; I may be younger then you, but I'm not dumb. I'm just glad your gonna do your best to be there for me from now on." Scootaloo said.

"Heh...that's my girl." Rainbow Dash said. "Pharynx will most likely be over a bit later. I'm going to show him the same journal. Are you okay with that, my little Scootaloo?" She asked.

"You bet. Oh, also..." Scootaloo said before getting out of Rainbow Dash's grip and taking to the air. She was able to stay there quite well.

"You flying." Rainbow Dash said. "You just had to go and make me 20% more proud of you, huh?" She added.

"Pharynx helped out." Scootaloo said.

"I'm glad he did. There's some real potential that he and I might become married at some point. That would make him your step-dad." Rainbow Dash said.

"Well, he would be an awesome stepdad then. I always knew I was adopted considering the ones who adopted me are lesbians. Or I guess the more accurately their filly-foolers." Scootaloo said.

"You...know what filly-foolers are?" Rainbow Dash questioned.

"I sort of picked up on it after noticing Bon Bon and Lyra act the same way towards each other that my adopted parents do towards each other: Two mares being in love like a stallion and mare couple." Scootaloo said.

"Chip off the old block." Rainbow Dash said. The doorbell rang. "Okay Scoots, you land now, and make sure to bring my journal into the kitchen. I may have already ordered Pizza." The cyan pegasus said before answering the door.

"You had me at Pizza!" Scootaloo said, taking a seat and bringing the journal.


Pharynx was a bit speechless for a while after he was forced to absorb all that information.

"SCOOTALOO'S YOUR WHAT?!" Phayrnx exclaimed before he shook his head. "Sorry, that's a reference to something. Sometimes the stuff Amiticia knows about bleeds through the hive mind." The changeling said.

"I just hope this doesn't effect anything between us." Rainbow Dash said.

"Hey if anything, you'll be an awesome mother. And that's not to stroke your ego, just so you know. Any kid who knows you like I've gotten to know you would agree that having you for a mother would be awesome." Pharynx said. "But you really don't remember who bred you that day?" He asked.

"No. And I highly doubt it's a changeling considering back then you were our enemies." Rainbow Dash said. "One would've sooner drained me of my love then bred me." Rainbow Dash said.

"Too true. This whole thing with Scootaloo does explain some things about you and your behavior that make total sense now." Pharynx said.

"So Pharynx, I have to know: When are you and my birth mother gonna tie the knot?~" Scootaloo asked teasingly. This caused both the Pegasus mare and the Changeling stallion to do a spit take.

"SCOOTALOO!" Pharynx said.

"...Like I said before, she's a chip off the old block..." Rainbow Dash said. "You've learnt well, my little Scootaloo. Your so gonna pay for that later though." She added.

"Actually, Twilight and Amiticia told me to do that the first chance I got while you two were eating something." Scootaloo said.

"...Because of course they did." Rainbow Dash said.

"I can't believe that just happened..." Pharynx said.


Indeed, those were the words that accurately summed up that day, and now, three days later, the truth was revealed to the rest of the main 6, Amiticia, and even the Cutie Mark Crusaders.


Twilight's jaw hit the ground at the news.

"...Yeah I feel the exact same way." Amiticia admitted. Twilight said something incoherent. "...Take your time Twilight dear." The changeling king said to his wife.

"Pinkie_Sense.mlp needs recalibration..." Pinkie Pie said.

"...Pinkie_Sense.mlp? Seriously Pinkie Pie, you are so random." Rainbow Dash said.

"What else is new?" Practically everyone else said.

"I am glad you found each other most of all. It's just...I think I need some time to fully process this." Twilight said.

"Thanks Twilight." Rainbow Dash said.

"I didn't expect to have to throw an emergancy party today." Pinkie Pie said before she fired up her party cannon.

"Oh boy..." Rainbow Dash said before everyone ducked as Pinkie Pie fired her cannon which sent a banner with the label 'Congradulations on finding your birth mother' on it.

"But as I always say: A party pony is always prepared." Pinkie Pie said.


Some time later...

"So, I'm guessing it was you who gave me my scooter for my birthday a couple of years back. It was sent annoymously." Scootaloo said.

"I did. I meant what I said in that journal: Momma's not gonna leave your side ever again." Rainbow Dash said, before hugging her daughter. Everyone just aw'd at the scene.

"Ah didn't think I'd ever live to see the day would do something so...wholesome." Applejack said.

"That makes two of us." Rarity said. Pharynx got in on the hug too.

Mother and daughter were reunited at long last. What more awaits them in the future?
