Ch.12 Scootaloo and Teacher's Help

"Mom, what are you doing here?", asked Zap Bolt

"You left your lunch at home, smart one", explained Scootaloo handing him a lunch box

"Ok, great thanks", said Zap taking the lunch box "Now leave before you embarass me"

"Wait Aunt Scootaloo", said Meteor Blitz "What's a Cutie Mark Crusader?"

"The Cutie Mark Crusaders are a group Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and I use to be in when we were about your age", explained Scootaloo "We would do all sorts of fun things to earn our cutie marks"

"Can we join?", asked Pixel

"Do you have your cutie marks?", asked Scootaloo

"No", the group said in unison

"Then yes you can", replied Scootaloo

"YAY", cheered the group

"Ok kids, time to get back inside", called Dinky

"I better go", said Scootaloo

"Wait", said Cortland "How do we join?"

"Just go to the clubhouse at Sweet Apple Acres after school", explained Scootaloo

"I know that clubhouse", said John "My sisters use to go in there"

"Great", replied Scootaloo "Now you kids should probably get to class"

"Ok thanks Mom", said Zap

The group walked in the classroom. Suddenly Sugar fell over and Royal Jewel and Bling Bling started to laugh.

"Smooth move Derpy Eyes", teased Jewel

Sugar sat in her seat. Then Dinky walked in the room and began her lesson. As an hour went by, Dinky was teaching the foals math.

"Ok would anypony like to solve the math problem?", asked Dinky

Sugar raised her hoof.

"Go ahead Sugar Sweets", said Dinky

As soon as Sugar Sweets solved the problem, a couple of foals started to laugh. Sugar turned around and they stopped. She finished the problem. When she tried to walk back to her seat, but Dinky stopped her. She saw a piece of paper and took it off her back. The paper had a picture of Derpy on it.

"Who put this paper on Sugar Sweet's back?", asked Dinky

Jewel and Bling Bling started to laugh.

"Royal Jewel and Bling Bling, detention after school today", said Dinky

"But Miss Dinky-", started Jewel

"No buts, do I make myself clear?", asked Dinky

"Yes Miss Dinky", replied Jewel and Bling Bling

Sugar walked back to her seat.

"Thanks a lot Derpy Eyes", whispered Jewel

The rest of the school day went by quick. The bell rang, and all the foals ran out.

"Sugar Sweets, may I talk to you for a sec?", asked Dinky

"Sure", said Sugar "Am I in trouble?"

"No sweetie, I just wanna ask you a few questions", assured Dinky "Do you get bullied a lot?"

"Well yeah, but my big brother usually helps me out"

"Thats good. You know you can come to me if you ever get teased right?"

"Yes Miss Dinky"

"Good, ok you can go now"

Sugar Sweets started to walk, but she stopped.

"Miss Dinky?", asked Sugar

"Yes sweetie?", replied Dinky

"Why do you wanna help me?"

"Because I know what your going through. My mom has your condition and she was picked on too. I was even picked on for being her daughter"

"What's your mom's name?"

"Derpy Hooves"

"That's why they keep calling me Derpy Eyes. Thanks Miss Dinky"

"Anytime deary"

Sugar walked back to her friends.

"Why were you talking to Miss Dinky?", asked Orion

"Did you get in trouble?", asked Gem

"No, she just wanted to talk to me", explained Sugar

"About what?", asked Aria

"Nothing", replied Sugar "Lets just head over to the clubhouse"

The group of friends headed over to Sweet Apple Acres.
