Author's Note

Well this is my first story to begin with I don't speak English I speak Spanish I'm sure that when you read the story you will also notice spelling errors

chapter 1:

A pegasus mare yellow fur and purple mane and green eyes and a cutie mark of stars walked through the streets of Cloudsdale. It was already night and, returning home from an exhausting day of work. His gaze focused on an alley that brought back a sad memory. A night where she can't forgive herself for what she's done.

She could still see herself as a reflection of herself carrying a rolled up blanket, her tears fell on the blanket, in that blanket there was a pegasus baby only a few weeks old, its fur was orange with a purple mane, the baby was asleep.

When Firefly saw that in an alley there was a box, she went to the alley hugged the baby and kissed her on the forehead and slowly put the baby in the box making sure she didn't wake up, put down the toy monkey and wrote a note that says the following.

"Whoever finds this, please take care of my daughter. I could have taken care of her if it wasn't for reasons I'd rather not say. Her name is Scootaloo. When she comes of age, I want you to tell her that her mother loves her very much and if so I would have raised her myself. Tell her I'm so sorry and I hope she forgives me."

As she wrote the note, her tears falling on the paper, she placed the note next to the baby. "I'm so sorry, I hope that one day you can forgive me," she said sobbing as she walked away from that place, she shuddered when she heard her baby's cries so she quickly walked away fearing that someone would see her when the baby began to cry

When her own reflection vanished like a ghost, Firefly looked sadly at that alley, she could still perfectly remember that tragic night, it was something that could not be forgiven her, since that night she had abandoned her daughter in that place and since that night She has lived regretful and sad just by remembering the events of that night.

"Oh Scootaloo, my baby, my sweet baby. I'm so sorry I left you, I hope you can forgive me wherever you are", she said sadly her tears began to fall, she dried her tears and continued on her way away from that place.

When she arrived at her house she saw that the newspaper was in the entrance of her house. He took it as he walked into his house, sat on the sofa and opened the newspaper, he was surprised to see what it said on the first page it said.

"Finally, after two trials, Rainbow Dash and Soarin have full custody of their daughter, Scootaloo." This surprised Firefly to wonder if it was really Scootaloo, as she continued to read the newspaper.

"after her father, White Fang, had temporary custody of Scootaloo after the first trial, which in the second trial after someone made an anonymous claim against White Fang that he was unfit to be a father, during the trial it was discovered that White Fang had beaten up Scootaloo when Scootaloo was found to have a bruise on her face, White Fang immediately lost custody and was handed over to Rainbow Dash and Sorian."

When Firefly saw a picture in the newspaper of an orange Pegasus filly with purple hair and purple eyes, she immediately knew who she was.

She was glad to hear that Scootaloo was safe and sound, but was saddened when she found out that her ex-husband had found Scootaloo and hurt her too.

She guessed that Rainbow Dash had originally found Scootaloo in the alley and saw the note that had left in the box next to Scootaloo.

What made Firefly happy isn't just knowing that his ex-husband was in jail.

It's because scootaloo was safe and sound with rainbow dash and sorian when he saw the news Firefly smiled and at the same time his eyes began to water again. her daughter was safe and sound and she had a family that loved her and would take care of her. Something she couldn't do.

"I have to do it, I have to see Scootaloo, she deserves to know the truth, she deserves to know why I left her in that alley",she said as she got up from the sofa and went to her room. her as she lay on her bed she thought to herself

"My little Scootaloo, I hope you can forgive me for leaving you,",She thought to herself as she slowly closed her eyes with the feeling that she would finally be able to see her daughter again after 5 years.

Meanwhile with rainbow dash: hours before

"Finally" Rainbow Dash said looking happily at Scootaloo. Soarin at the same time was glad to know that he was going to be a father along with rainbow dash

"Finally, that stud who called himself Scootaloo's father will pay for what he did" Sorian said as they headed home together.

"You're right Soarin, that stallion will never hurt Scootaloo again" said rainbow dash.
When they got home they both had a question "who exactly is Scootaloo's biological mother?" They decided to put that question aside and start their new life as Scootaloo's parents.

As Rainbow Dash and Soarin went to the living room. Scootaloo asked "do you think my birth mother loves me?",

This question surprised Rainbow Dash deep down she knew this question would come sooner or later, looking at Scootaloo.

"I'm sure she loves you, Scootaloo," Rainbow said looking happily at Scootaloo, even though she knew Scootaloo wasn't sure about everything.

"Are you sure, mom?" Scootaloo asked looking seriously at Rainbow "why if that's the case why did my biological mother abandon me?" Scootaloo asked Rainbow Dash
"I know why she would have done it, do you know why I think so?" Rainbow Dash told Scootaloo

"why?" Scootaloo asked

"Because your birth mother left you to protect you," Rainbow said looking at Scootaloo.
"Protect me from who?" Scootaloo asked.

"From your biological father, Scootaloo," Rainbow replied, looking seriously at Scootaloo.

"Why do you say that?" Scootaloo asked.

"Because if that stud who claimed to be your father was actually telling the truth, he knew that your birth mother abandoned you to protect you and prevent your birth father from finding you," Rainbow replied looking happily at Scootaloo as she turned around. happy.

"But why did I want to prevent my biological father from finding me?" Scootaloo asked, still not sure why.

"Because I didn't want you to suffer like your birth mother was probably already suffering," Rainbow Dash replied.
"Because apparently that stud was a violent alcoholic and your birth mother wanted to keep him from hurting you" Rainbow Dash said looking at Scootaloo.

"But let's forget it, I'm sure your biological mother, wherever she is, will be very happy to know that you are safe," Rainbow said seeing that Scootaloo was happy.

"I hope so, mommy, I hope so" Scootaloo finally said hugging his mother with the happiness of a new life.

Rainbow returned her daughter's hug and Soarin, moved by the scene, also joined the hug.

chapter 2:

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

chapter 3 part 1 revelation:

As Rainbow Dash, Soarin and Firefly left the academy and flew home, as Firefly followed them, a question came to her mind "Do you really think Scootaloo will forgive me?" Firefly asked as Rainbow and Sorian turned around.

"Of course she'll forgive you, Firefly, when you explain why you left her, she'll understand," Soarin said as he looked at Firefly. "Why are you so sure, soarin?" Firefly asked with a doubtful tone.

"Because Scootaloo once asked if her birth mother really loved her, she meant you," Rainbow replied to Firefly's question. "In fact?" Firefly asked with some astonishment.

"Yes, Firefly, it was yesterday, when we got home from the trial, I told her yes, you still loved her and in the end she was right," Rainbow Dash replied. "You loved Scootaloo so much that you didn't want her to suffer in the same way that you suffered for her, that's why you left her, it was to protect her from his father.

"Firefly" Rainbow said as Firefly raised her head and looked into her eyes "Scootaloo will forgive you and accept you, she will understand that the reason you abandoned her was to protect her" Rainbow Dash said as she comforted Firefly.

"You're right Rainbow, I should get over my past actions and see what I have now, I'm going to see Scootaloo, I'm going to see my daughter again after five years," Firefly replied happily and a little worried. her calling Scootaloo her daughter.

"Calm down Firefly, you don't have to worry about calling Scootaloo your daughter even though I took care of her for 5 years, she is still your daughter and she always will be," Rainbow said calming Firefly's worries.

"Thank you Rainbow," Firefly said as the three of them continued on their way.

Meanwhile at Rainbow Dash's house

"Weird, mom was supposed to be home by now," Scootaloo said when he saw that his mom hadn't even gotten a Daring Doo comic.

Hearing the sound of the door opening Scootaloo got up to greet her mother, she was received by a hug from both Sorian and Rainbow while Firefly watched everything, who had a happy face to be able to see her daughter again after a long time.

"Hi mommy! Hi Soarin", Scootaloo said greeting her parents "hi squirt, how was your day?" Rainbow asked as she hugged her daughter "everything was fine mom", Scootaloo answered her question looking at Rainbow Dash looking at Firefly "umm mom, who is she?" Scootaloo asked seeing Firefly behind Rainbow.

"Oh, this is Firefly. I met her when she came to the academy, she told me that she had something important to tell you, Scootaloo," Rainbow said as she entered her house with Firefly, who also entered the house.

"Okay, I'll leave you guys alone so you can talk quietly," Rainbow Dash said as she left the room to give Scootaloo and Firefly some privacy. "Okay mommy," Scootaloo replied as she and Firefly sat down on the couch. "So what do you want to talk to me about?" Scootaloo asked curiously as she looked Firefly in her eyes.

"Okay Scootaloo, I know you've lived with Rainbow Dash all your life and that she's been a mother to you, even though they're not of the same blood" Firefly said as she kept looking at Scootaloo "yes that's true" she answered Scootaloo "And recently a stud tried to take you away saying he was your father," Firefly said seeing Scootaloo's surprised face.

"H-how do you know that?" Scootaloo said surprised when Firefly mentioned that stallion "Scootaloo, this is something I have lived with for years that I have never been able to forgive myself, is that I am your biological mother Scootaloo" said Firefly when saying it, a silence invaded the environment.

"W-what?" Scootaloo said totally surprised. I never imagined this would happen. I never thought "Why should I believe you? Some stud tried to take me saying he was my father and now you say you are my birth mother." Scootaloo said still not believing what Firefly told her, "I know you can doubt my Scootaloo if you don't believe me, this will make you change your mind", Firefly said while taking a photo where she was lying on a hospital bed while in her arms was an colour orange pegasus baby with purple mane.

Seeing the photo, Scootaloo could no longer deny that the baby in the photo was her, her mind could no longer deny it, that's when she realized that Firefly was telling the truth, she realized that Firefly was her biological mother.

Author's Note

well the ending is divided into separate parts if you notice spelling errors let me know in the comments

chapter 3 part 2 a sad past

"Now what do you think, Scootaloo?" Firefly asked calmly seeing how surprised and silent Scootaloo was "b-but why? Why did you leave me?" Scootaloo asked as he tried not to yell at Firefly "I did it to protect you Scootaloo" Firefly said while Scootaloo was still confused.

"Protect me? But from whom?" Scootaloo asked as her confusion still continued "from your father, Scootaloo, the stud that took you by force was actually your biological father" Firefly replied as Scootaloo slowly began to understand "are you saying that stud was really my father ?

Scootaloo asked when she saw Firefly nod her head "yes Scootaloo his name was White Fang he was alcoholic and violent he was the reason I left you five years ago Scootaloo" Firefly said while Scootaloo was still confused. "What did he do to make you leave me?" Scootaloo asked still not understanding the reason why his biological mother abandoned her.

"You see, Scootaloo, your father was an alcoholic and violent. I suffered from his violence for a long time. When I found out I was pregnant, I thought he would change and try to kick his habit, but it only got worse." Firefly said with a sad tone.

"I was afraid that he would do the same to you after you were born, I was afraid that you would suffer just like me, I didn't want that, I wanted you to be happy but I knew that even if it gave you happiness, but your father would take that happiness away from you."

"I did not dare to divorce him, because I knew that they were going to give him custody and you would have to live with him, I did not want that to happen because otherwise you were going to suffer with him all your life." Firefly said, seeing that Scootaloo was beginning to get the hang of things.

“When you were born I saw how beautiful and adorable you were, Scootaloo, you didn't deserve to suffer like me, you deserved to be happy, when I took you home the time I was with you I was happy to have you in my arms until that fateful night came when I lost him everything," Firelfy said as his ears flattened as he recalled that tragic night again.

"What happened that night, mom?" Scootaloo said looking at Firefly's happy face when Scootaloo called 'mom'.

"At first it was a normal night after dinner. I took you to your room to sleep once I tucked you in your crib and you were fast asleep, I left your room and went to the living room and as always your father was sitting on the sofa looking at the newspaper and then you started crying I knew you woke up this time your father couldn't take it and got up from the sofa and was to your room"

“I knew that what he was going to do was not good, so I followed him, I saw that he had entered your room, I could hear him screaming telling you to shut up, while you cried harder when you saw him leave. to hit you, that's when I yelled at him to let go, and if he wanted to hit someone he should do it to me"

"That's when he let you go. I really thought he was going to hit me, but he didn't. He just left the room, took his saddlebag and went to a tavern in Cloudsdale while I tried to calm you down so you could go back to sleep, it was that when a fear entered my mind, the fear of not being able to be home because of work and not being able to stop your father from hurting you, I let that one consume me completely and force me to leave you, I didn't want to do it, I didn't want to leave you, but I was blinded and consumed by the fear that wouldn't let me think.

"I had no choice Scootaloo, I couldn't let your father hurt you like he hurt me for years, someone as adorable as you deserved to be happy, you didn't deserve to suffer," said Firefly as she tried not to cry in front of her daughter, but she couldn't help but sob when her memories flashed back to that tragic night.

“Since that night there hasn't been a day that forgive myself for abandoning you all these years. I lived with that regret, with that memory that I can never forget, but I just want you to understand that Scootaloo has always loved you since the day you were born and has held you in my arms, even when I couldn't be there for you."

Firefly said as Scootaloo started to understand clearly as he hugged Firefly to comfort her.

"I, I understand, I know you didn't want me to suffer, fear was what forced you to leave me, the fear that you wouldn't be able to prevent dad from hurting me," she said as she hugged me. her mother at the same time Firefly did the same, both were calm hugging each other "I'm so sorry I left you Scootaloo I know what I did was to protect you but at the same time it was fear that forced me to leave you", said Firefly while her tears fell on the Scootaloo's mane.

"I forgive you mom, it was all to protect me, you didn't do it out of fear, you did it because you loved me", said Scootaloo as she separated from Firefly "It's true Scootaloo, I always loved you from the day I held you in my arms, even when I couldn't be there for you," Firefly said seeing the smile on her daughter's face.

"But now you have a family that loves you very much, I'm not going to force you to choose, Rainbow was the one who took care of you and I love you for 5 years and she was a mother to you," she said. Firefly seeing that Scootaloo was also looking at her without realizing that Rainbow Dash was with them.

"Scootaloo doesn't need to have to choose," Rainbow Dash said as she walked into the living room looking happily at Firefly and Scootaloo. "What do you mean by that mom?" Scootaloo asked Rainbow, "I mean you can go visit your mom and even hang out with her if you want, she deserves to be with you and you deserve to be with her too and she deserves to be with you and your Firefly can come visit her." Whenever you want your presence will always be welcome, so what do you think? Rainbow Dash said as she sat on the sofa.

"Of course Rainbow will be happy to be with Scootaloo!", Firefly replied happily, accepting Rainbow's kind proposal "Well, and Scootaloo, what do you think? They both deserve to be together and make up for lost time", she asked . Rainbow while her gaze was fixed on Scootaloo

"Sure I do, but what days could I go with mom?" Scootaloo asked Rainbow "umm weekends from Friday to Saturday and Sunday, is that okay with you, squirt" Rainbow dash asked while waiting Scootaloo's response.

"Yes, I think it's a good idea" answered Scootaloo

"And your Firefly? Sounds good to you" Rainbow Dash asked Firefly. "Sure, I think it's very good" Firefly replied accepting Rainbow's proposal "if you want, Firefly you can stay with us today", Rainbow said to Firefly "thank you, thank you very much", Firefly said thanking Rainbow's invitation "well, what? are we going to have a snack?

Rainbow Dash suggested when she saw that both Firefly and Scootaloo nodded as the three of them got up and headed for the kitchen. Firefly couldn't think of anything else to make this day even better than she already was, she was finally able to redeem her past and in return, Scootaloo forgave her and accepted her into her life.

Author's Note
