The day was not a good one for little Scootaloo. She had just been turned away by all of her friends on her birthday and was most likely going to be spending her birthday alone. Slowly and sadly, the little filly propelled her way to the sweet shop of Sugarcube Corner. She arrives in front of the store and hops off the scooter before removing her helmet. She slowly trudges into the door, only to be met by total darkness.

“Hello? Is anypony here? The door was unlocked so I assumed that you were open. Hello?” She calls out.

Suddenly the lights flick on and the little Pegasus is met with a loud squeal and nine smiling faces.

“SURPRISE!!!”

Streamers fly, and Scootaloo is suddenly met by a pink mane in her face.

“SURPRISE!!! It's your birthday!! I threw you a party I hope you like it do you like it do ya huh huh huh?!!” Pinkie babbles.

“What's going on here?!”

“I just told you silly! It's a surprise party!”

“B-But I thought you guys were too busy to hang out with me!”

Rainbow Dash hovers over to the filly and chuckles, ruffling her mane.

“We had to tell you that so that each of us could go shopping for presents kid. we wouldn't have been able to do so if we were with you all day.”

Finally the realization hits the receivers in the filly's brain and she breaks out into a wide smile while trying to hold back tears. In spur of the moment, Scootaloo zooms over to her “sister” and locks her into a hug.

“Thank you! Thank you all so much!!”

“You're welcome squirt!”

Twilight walks up and grips the filly in a hug.

“Happy birthday Scootaloo.”

“Thanks Twilight.”

“Um...Happy Birthday Scootaloo.

“Thanks Fluttershy.”

“Happy Birthday Darling.”

“Thanks Rarity.”

“Happy Birthday Sugarcube.”

“Thanks Applejack.”

“Happy Birthday kid.”

“Thank you Rainbow Dash.”

“Happy Birthday Scoots!”

“Thanks Spike!”

Scootaloo is suddenly wrapped in a hug sandwich by her fellow CMC members.

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOOTALOO!!”

“Thanks guys! Pretty sure I'm dead in both ears now!!”

“CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS BIRTHDAY BASHERS!!! YAY!!!”

BEST!!! BIRTHDAY!!! EVER!!!
