Chapters "Scootaloo why are you living in the clubhouse? Why aren't you at your home?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Because my parents are horrible. They call me worthless and want nothing to do with me." Scootaloo says with a look of sadness and tears running down her face. Rainbow couldn't stand the sight of the sad little filly and said "Well I can't let a little pony like you live on your own. Come with me you can live with me for the meantime. Okay?" Scootaloo looked up to Rainbow and gave her a smile of happiness and said "Okay!" and gave Rainbow a hug. "Let me pack my things."
When they got to Rainbow's house she told Scootaloo to put her things in the bedroom at the end of the hallway. Scootaloo couldn't help but to tear up to the kindness of Rainbow Dash and said "Thank you Rainbow Dash for letting me live here." Rainbow Dash replied "No problem Scoot." Scootaloo went to the bedroom, the only thing in it was a bed and a television. She put her stuff down and made herself at home. Later Rainbow Dash asked Scootaloo to come in the living room. When she came in Rainbow Dash looked excited. "You called for me?" Scootaloo asked. "Yes." Replied Rainbow "What would you say if I adopted you?" Scootaloo was speechless she didn't know what to say but the most exciting "YES!" you ever heard.
The next day while Scootaloo was at school Rainbow Dash went to Twilight's library and told her the news. "Hey Twilight." "Hm? Oh! Hey Rainbow Dash what's up?" Twilight asked. "Well I've just agreed to adopt Scootaloo." Rainbow said happily. "That's great Rainbow! You'll make a great mother." "Yeah. Could you leaned me some parenting books?" Rainbow asked hopefully. "Oh Rainbow, parenting doesn't come from a book. It comes from your motherly instincts. Trust me when you spend more time with her you'll figure it out."
That afternoon when Rainbow was picking up Scootaloo because she can't fly yet. She asked her if she would like to spend the rest of the day with. Scootaloo said yes obviously. So that day until it was night they had the most fun they ever had. When they finally was ready to go home Rainbow told Scootaloo that, them being together was the most fun she ever had and can't wait for whatever happens next. It was the start of a new relationship of mother and daughter.
It has been two weeks since Rainbow Dash has adopted Scootaloo and she has grown to love and protect her new daughter. So, as the sun rises and the young filly wakes up to a good morning, almost. "Why do I smell smoke?" Scootaloo asked to herself, and ran to the kitchen as fast as she could. She then saw her new mother Rainbow Dash in the kitchen trying to make breakfast. Rainbow then noticed Scootaloo at the kitchen doorway. "Oh, good morning Scootaloo." she said with a smile on her face. "Good morning Rainbow." Scootaloo said happily. "What are you making?" She said curiously. "Some scrambled eggs." "Why do they smell burnt?" Said Scootaloo. "Hey this is new to me. I don't cook to often. I'm just now getting used to waking up around six a.m. to take you to school. Cut me some slack. I am your mother you know." Rainbow said jokingly. "I know." Scootaloo said smiling.
Later that day Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash went in to town to bye some groceries at the market. "Do we have everything?" Rainbow Dash asked Scootaloo with the list. "Yeah I think so Rainbow." Distracted Rainbow Dash accidentally ran in to another pony. "Oh my Celestia! I didn't mean to run in to you." She said hoping the pony she ran into would not be mad. "Its okay." Said the blue Pegasus wearing a wonderbolt outfit. "OH MY CELESTIA! Your Soarin! From the wonderbolts. What are you doing in Ponyville?" She asked haste fully. "I just bought a house near here. W-wait a minute your the pony that did the sonic rainboom. What was your name again... Rainbow Dash! That's it!" Soarin said confidently. Rainbow Dash in her head was going "Oh my Luna he knows my name!" "Y-yeah that's me." Rainbow said quickly gathering her thoughts. "So, I have to go to wonderbolts practice. See you around sometime?" Said Soarin. "Y-yeah see you around." She said hopefully.
When they got home Rainbow and Scootaloo both collapsed on the couch in exaction. Thay both started randomly laughing. "What are you laughing at?" Asked Rainbow in a laughing tone. "I don't knew what are you laughing at?" Scootaloo replied. "Guess I'm just happy to have you here with me." Rainbow said sweetly to Scootaloo. "I love you Rainbow Dash." "I love you too Scootaloo." Replied Rainbow. "Rainbow can I tell you something?" Scootaloo asked. "What is it?" Rainbow looking a bit worried. "I just want to tell you. Thank you for adopting me, I couldn't asked for a greater mom." She started to break out crying, face down on Rainbow's shoulder. "Scootaloo why are you crying?" Rainbow asked. "I'm just so glad to have you as my mother. I have never been so happy to have somepony like you to take care of me!" Said Scootaloo. "Don't worry Scootaloo I am and always will be there for you. No matter what. I love you!" Rainbow started to cry.
The next morning Rainbow Dash had just dropped off Scootaloo at the clubhouse to hang out with her friends Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle The Cutie Mark Crusaders. Meanwhile she was off to go walk around town and talk to her friends. As she was, she noticed Twilight running around the library like a mad pony. "Hey Twilight what are you doing?" Rainbow asked curiously. "Oh, hey Rainbow Dash. I'm just looking for a book." Twilight replied. "But, there's all kinds of books in here. Which book could you be looking for?" "Princess Celestia wants me to read one pacific book." She replied. "Well, good luck finding it Twilight." Said Rainbow. "Rainbow could you help me find it?" Twilight asked. "Sorry Twilight, I got to pick up a couple of apple pies for me and Scoots." "Okay, Rainbow I understand you being Scootaloo's mother in all." Said Twilight happily. "See ya later Twilight!" Rainbow said while leaving to go to Sweet Apple Acres.
When she got to Sweet Apple Acres she immediately found Apple Jack. "What can a'h do for ya Rainbow Dash?" Apple Jack asked. "Could you get me a couple pies for me and Scoots?" Rainbow requested. "Sure thing partner, they'll just be a few minutes." "Thanks Apple Jack. I'm gonna go to the CMC clubhouse while I wait. I can pick up Scootaloo." Said Rainbow Dash. "Um, Rainbow they left clubhouse a while ago." Apple Jack said. "What! Where did they go!" Rainbow yelled. "A'h think they said they were going to the park. Something about a catapult." Apple Jack said a little confused. "What!" Rainbow yelled angrily, as she dashed to the park.
"Okay, Cutie Mark Crusaders river jumpers go!" As Scootaloo cuts the rope of the preset catapult. They launched across the air fast, but not as fast as Rainbow caught them or else they would've land painfully. When Rainbow Dash sat them down she looked furious. "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?! You three could of got seriously hurt. Who's idea was this?" Both Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle pointed at Scootaloo. "Scootaloo? This was your idea?!" She said angrily. "Y-yes." Scootaloo said with a sad voice. "Why would you think this was a good idea?!" "I'm sorry, I just wanted to earn my cutie mark Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo said while looking at the ground. "Scootaloo I know you want to get your cutie mark, but you can't make a cutie mark appear. You get your cutie mark when you realize your special talent. Now come on Scootaloo we're going home." "Okay Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo said hoping Rainbow won't punish her.
When they got home Rainbow told Scootaloo to go to her room until Rainbow felt she learned a lesson. Scootaloo said "Rainbow do you hate me?" Rainbow looked at her and said "Of course I don't hate you Scootaloo. I'm just a little disappointed. I'm your mother and I just don't want to see you get hurt. Okay?" "Okay, mom." Rainbow was touched because that was the first time Scootaloo called her mom. She couldn't help but to tear up and say "I love you." Scootaloo smiled and said "I love you too mom." Then she went to her room.
Scootaloo had just came from school. Rainbow Dash was in the kitchen getting a snack, when she walked in the living room she noticed Scootaloo wearing sun glasses. "Um, Scootaloo why are you wear sun glasses?" She asked curiously. "No reason." Scootaloo said quickly. "Well do you mind taking them off? Your indoors you know." "Its okay, I like sun glasses." Scootaloo responded. Rainbow got more curious. "Okay, what's wrong?" She said as she was taking Scootaloo's sun glasses off her. "Because your ac-" she stop in mid-sentence to see the black eye of Scootaloo. "What the hell happened!" She said furiously. "Mom, its okay. It was just a bully at school." Scootaloo said calmly. "A bully! Does Ms.Cheerilee know?!" Rainbow said more furiously. "Yes. She said she would take care of it." Scootaloo said practically begging Rainbow not to interfere. "I'm am gonna have a talk with her!" Said Rainbow. "Please mom don't!" Scootaloo begged. "Scootaloo I'm just not going stand around while you get bullied. I just won't have it!"
The next day while Scootaloo's class was outside playing. Rainbow Dash was in the classroom talking to Cheerilee. "Okay! Let me get this straight your just gonna let this resolve itself?" Rainbow asked. "Yes." Cheerilee said with a smile. "That's so-so ahh! I can't even think straight I'm so mad." Rainbow complained. "Rainbow bullying is a serious thing and must be treated slowly to sto-" she was interrupted. "Slowly, slowly! This is a problem! Scootaloo shouldn't be getting bullied in the first place!" Rainbow yelled angrily. "Rainbow Dash I know your angry, and yes she shouldn't be getting bullied. But." Once again interrupted. "But what!" "But, if we interfere it will just make things worse." Cheerilee said trying to reason to Rainbow. "And, if things don't get better they are other options." "Like what?" Rainbow asked curiously. "Well, she can be home schooled." "What else?" Rainbow asked. "Or she can transfer to school in Cloudsdale." "Are those really our only options?" Rainbow questioned. "Unfortunately, yes." Cheerilee said sadly. "Okay , I'll have to talk to Scootaloo about it. It is her choice anyway."
That afternoon when Scootaloo got home, Rainbow Dash was waiting for her in the living room. "Hey mom." Scootaloo said smiling. "Hey Scootaloo. I need to talk to you." Rainbow said calmly. "About what?" Asked Scootaloo. "Its about your bully." "Its okay mom, he wasn't at school today." Scootaloo said gladly. "It's not that. I talked to your teacher while your class was outside, and she suggested that we transfer you to Cloudsdale elementary. But, its your decision to make." Scootaloo was speechless she didn't know what to say, or think. Then she said "I don't want to leave my school. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle will miss me, and I can't leave them." She started to cry in Rainbow's lap. "Scootaloo it's your choice to stay at your school or go to Cloudsdale elementary. Its your choice." Rainbow said with a soothing voice, while stroking Scootaloo's mane. Scootaloo then said while she still has tears running down her face "I want to stay at my school." She said while even more tears running down her face. "Are you sure Scoot?" Rainbow asked. "Yes, I'm sure." "Okay, whatever you want Scoots." Rainbow said with a happy look on her face.
The next day Rainbow Dash went to school with Scootaloo, to talk to Cheerilee for a moment. "Hey, Cheerilee I talked with Scootaloo about the school transfer, and she decided to stay here. So, I don't want the bully to bother her aga-" this time Cheerilee interrupted "Rainbow, it ok Scootaloo's bully moved to Manehattan. So, Scootaloo shouldn't be having anymore troubles with anymore bullies." Cheerilee said. "That's great!" Rainbow said gladly. "I told you everything would work itself out." She said with a smirk. Scootaloo overheard them, and started jumping up and down in happiness. Later when Rainbow and Scootaloo got home, Scootaloo said "Mom thanks for trying to help me with my bullying problem, even though he ended up moving anyways." She said jokingly. "Anytime squirt." Rainbow said smiling while giving Scootaloo a hug.
The Accident part 1
"Look Scootaloo you've been with me for a few months now and I think it's time for me to teach you how to fly." Said Rainbow Dash. "Finally!" Scootaloo said with great enthusiasm. "When do we start?"
"Anytime your ready squirt." Rainbow said nugging Scootaloo against her shoulder.
"I'm ready!" Scootaloo said.
"Okay lets get started." Rainbow said ready to start. "Get in flying position. Now start flapping your wings, lets see what were dealing with." As Scootaloo started to flap her wings, Rainbow noticed that one wing was slower than the other. "Hey, Scootaloo did you now your left wing is slower than the other?" Rainbow asked.
"It is!" Scootaloo said, stopping in her tracks.
"It's okay, just see if you can even them out." Rainbow instructed.
Scootaloo did what Rainbow told her, and she started flaoting. Scootaloo got so excited that she lost her balance and fell on her face.
"That was great Scoots! But, this time don't lose focus. Okay?" Rainbow urged.
"Okay." Scootaloo said smiling. She started flapping her wings and did more than float she was able to go across the air.
"Look, look! I'm doing it! I'm flying!" Scootaloo yelled.
"I knew you could to it Scootaloo." Rainbow said happily.
The next day around noon, Rainbow was teaching Scootaloo to fly on and off the cloud.
"Okay squirt lets see what you've learn." Rainbow said. Scootaloo started flapping her wings and slowly started off the cloud to the ground. Rainbow followed her to make sure she doesn't fall. Scootaloo made it to the ground successfully.
"I'm so proud of you, Scootaloo." Rainbow said giving Scootaloo a hug. "Now lets see if you can get some speed." Rainbow challenged.
"Your on!" Scootaloo said confidently. Rainbow Dash set up a small course with a few cloud rings, for Scootaloo.
"I'll stay on the cloud to watch you." Rainbow said.
"B-but what if I fall?" Scootaloo said worried.
"Don't worry I have all confidence in you." Rainbow replied. Scootaloo started flying into the rings as fast as she could to impress Rainbow. But, she went a little to fast and wasn't used to working her wings that quickly. She hit the side of the cloud ring and became disoriented she started falling. Rainbow as quick as she was. Was not able to catch Scootaloo. Scootaloo landed wings first. Panicking Rainbow took her to the hospital as quickly as she could.
At the hospital, Scootaloo was taking to the emergency room. Rainbow tried to follow but one of the nurses told her she couldn't go in. Rainbow yelled "Why not!" The nurse told her to calm and sit down. Then asked her "What happened?"
Rainbow said "I was teaching her to fly, and she over did it and hit the ground." She couldn't help but to start to crying. "I didn't want anything like this to happen to her." Rainbow was bursting in to tears hoping that nothing major happened to Scootaloo. So many scenarios were going through her head. It has been a few hours, then finally a doctor comes out to tell Rainbow of what injuries Scootaloo has.
"Doctor will she be all right?" Rainbow asked in the saddest voice she's ever had.
"Yes, her left wing is fractured, and the right only has a few ruffled feathers. But on examining her wings, we've seemed to have found that she has a rare disease a that keeps her wings from growing." The Doctor respond.
"What do you mean? She just fell from the sky, that couldn't of gave her a disease could it?" Rainbow asked.
"No, it wasn't the fall that caused it. She has seemed to have been born with it."The Doctor said.
"Exactly what is the disease cause and do?" Rainbow asked.
"The disease causes a lack of bone marrow in the wings that keeps them from growing, and what is does is disables the ability to fly. She was lucky enough that she could fly." The Doctor responded.
"Could?! What do you mean could?" Rainbow yelled.
"Miss Dash, Scootaloo will never be able to fly again. I'm sorry." The Doctor said wishing it wasn't true.
"No! No, this can't be happening I promised to protect that filly. I promised her as long as I was her guardian I wouldn't let anything bad happen to her." Rainbow said with tears running down her face.
"I promised her!" She said loudly stomping her hoof on the ground.
"Miss Rainbow Dash please calm down! You can go and visit her if you like?" The Doctor suggested.
As Rainbow Dash entered the room that Scootaloo was in she noticed that there was a cast on Scoot's left wing. Rainbow sat on the bed and said "Scootaloo, I just talked to the doctor, and he said that you have a dis- a problem that keeps your wings from growing."
"W-what!"Scootaloo shouted. "How could have a problem that keeps my wings from growing."
"I don't know Scootaloo. I just don't know." Rainbow said with a tear running down her face. "He said that it was a miracle that you could fly. But, because of the accident you won't be able to fly anymore. I'm sorry Scootaloo."
Scootaloo chocked and didn't know what to say. She tried to hold back the tears but she couldn't. She started crying in Rainbow's lap and sad "Why did this have to happen to me? Why?" She said in a saddened voice.
"I don't know Scootaloo." Rainbow said still with tears coming down her face, while she strokes Scootaloo's mane "I just don't know."
TO BE CONTINUED.
(A few weeks has past. So, Scootaloo isn't grounded anymore and Rainbow Dash has spent a lot of time with her, and Soarin. This chapter is a Rainbow Dash and Soarin dating episode. Not officially together for now. "Wink")
The other day Rainbow and Soarin bumped into each other at the park. They were talking about a few things. When Rainbow was about to take off to pick up Scootaloo from school. Soarin asked her "Would you like to go on a date this Friday?" Of course Rainbow started freaking out inside, but she collected herself and said "Yeah, sure." Now its Friday and Rainbow is so nervous for her date.
Then all of a sudden, she hears the door bell. Her heart stops for a second, then she started to walk towards the door and opened it. Behind the door was Soarin, and with him was a bouquet of flowers. "Hey Soarin, come in." Rainbow said anxiously. "Hey Rainbow Dash. Are you ready to go?" He asked. "Yeah. I dropped off Scootaloo with her friend Apple Bloom earlier. We're free for the night." Rainbow said smiling. "Okay lets go. I was thinking dinner then a movie. That sound okay?" Soarin asked hopefully. "Yeah that sounds great." So, they went off to the town.
When they arrived to the most beautiful restraunt she has ever been at, there is when they started to get to know each other. "So, Rainbow how are you liking the restraunt?" Asked Soarin. "I never been here before. It's so amazing here!" "I'm glad you like it this place." Soarin said confidently. "I don't come here often. Only when I'm on a date with beautiful ponies." Rainbow Dash couldn't help but blush brightly. "Stop your making me blush." She said flirtingly. Which was a little weird because Rainbow Dash has never acted like this before. She has always acted like a tomboy, but this is how she acts while on a date with a stallion she really likes.
When they were done eating they went straight to the movies, but the movies weren't all that good. But beside that Rainbow Dash had a pretty good time with Soarin. When they got back to Rainbow's house Soarin asked "Did you have a good time tonight?" "Yes, the movie sucked, but the rest of the night was perfect." She said happily. "I'm glad you had fun." Soarin said gladly. "Well, I guess this is good night Rainbow. We should do this again sometime." "How about next Saturday?" Rainbow asked hopefully. "It's a date. Oh, before I go I want to give you something." "What?" She asked. Then all of a sudden he kissed her passionately, then he said goodbye and left. When she went inside her house she was thinking to herself "Oh My Celestia! My first kiss, and it was with Soarin!" She wished that kiss would last forever.
