Scootaloo smiled to herself as she walked home from her time at the Clubhouse. She and the other Crusaders had spent a full afternoon and late evening crusading for their cutie marks. It was now quite late, and she was buzzing her wings happily as she sped home on her Scooter. She had, of course, promised Applejack to use her flashlight to guide her and Sweetie home from the farm, and had dutifully shone the flashlight as she pulled Sweetie behind her to the Boutique, where she was staying with her sister. However, as soon as Scootaloo was out of sight of the Boutique, she switched the flashlight off. She saw better at night without it, not that she wanted anyone to know that.
She recklessly maneuvered her way through town, easily evading each obstacle presented, deliberately coming as close to them as possible without touching. In the dark, this was so much more exciting. It was a pity she couldn't share this with her friends yet, but there were some things she kept to herself for a very good reason. Someday she could share it...but that day hadn't come yet.
Eventually, she arrived at her house, putting her scooter into a skid up a ramp as she flipped through the half closed window without touching either glass or frame. She then came to a landing on all four hooves as she slung her scooter over her shoulder. She started to turn towards her room, but she paused. The air in the house felt subtly different than normal. A huge grin - the sort that would put Pinkie Pie to shame - split her face as her wings buzzed happily. Her father was awake.
Dropping her scooter, she raced into the kitchen happily, nearly flying from the sheer force of her joy. "Dad!" she cried happily, charging forward and wrapping her forelegs around the long, thin leg concealed beneath the black cloth. She nuzzled eagerly at the knee just above her head.
The figure leaned down to scoop her up over the kitchen counters into a tight hug. "There's my little dark angel," the figure said happily, swinging her around a bit.
She nuzzled happily into his chest, sighing happily as his hand came up to pet her between her ears. "How long are you going to be awake for this time?" she asked curiously. "I miss you when you're in the deep sleep."
"Yeah, I'd miss me too," he said with a chuckle. "But don't worry, I'm sick of the sleep anyway. Starting tonight, I'm back bitches!"
Scootaloo squealed happily as she nuzzled into him again, ignoring his vocabulary. She didn't know why he always called out to Winona like that, or what his thing about Diamond Dogs was all about, but she didn't question. She loved him too much.
"I made you dinner!" he said happily, presenting her a plate. "Hayballs and pasta in red sauce...or at least that's what we'll tell your mother it is, right?"
Giggling, Scootaloo dove into the plate, devouring the food with eagerness, easily recognizing the 'red sauce' by taste. "Does this mean I'm going to be able to do cool things like you do soon?" she asked, her head rising as her eyes sparkled happily with a red shine.
Her father leaned down, licking a bit of blood from her muzzle that didn't make its way into her mouth. "Don't worry, little hellion. Soon you'll be raising Cain just like your old man, and teaching those prissy prats to suck dingleberries. Now, how was your day?"
Scootaloo smiled. "Well, school was okay. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon were teasing me and my friends about being Blank Flanks again, and my still being ground bound."
"Someone was picking on my dark angel?" her father demanded in outrage. There was the click of a cocked pistol. "Want me to take care of them?"
Scootaloo thought for a time. "Nah, too much trouble. Besides, I know what you'd do with what was left, and Mom says we're not supposed to eat spoiled food."
Her father cracked up laughing. "That's my girl! Go ahead and eat up!"
Smiling, Scootaloo finishes her meal. "After school, me and my friends were crusa- I mean, trying to find our cutie marks."
"Oh, go ahead and call it crusading. It's not like those papist pricks ever caught me! Spent to much time looking in little Timmy's pants!"
Scootaloo shook her head. She never knew what her dad was talking about half the time, but that didn't matter. She knew he loved her, and she him. That was enough. Still, she stuck by her mom's rule to not repeat anything her dad said that she didn't know what it meant. She smiled up at her dad. "So what do we have planned for tonight?"
He chuckled. "We? You, little lady, have a bedtime last I checked."
Scootaloo pouted. "Aww..."
He shook his head. "Doesn't matter how adorable you are, I'm not crossing your Mom. If I do that, I won't get any."
Scootaloo blinked. "Any...what?"
Her father grinned widely and started to open his mouth. However, a sparkling dark blue wisp of magic smacked him in the back of the head. "Aww, you're no fun anymore!" he shouted at the air. "I'm going for a walk!"
Scootaloo smiled. "What kind of walk?"
Her father grinned widely, showing his pointed teeth. "The enthusiastic kind in...the Everfree." He turned and opened the closet. "Where the fuck's my trench coat?"
Scootaloo ran up to her room, followed by her father. She pulled a large, red trench coat out from between her blanket and sheets. "It helped me feel close to you," she said, floating it over to him on black and red wisps that dissipated almost as soon she managed to conjure them, "since you were asleep for such long stretches of time." She then grabbed a red wide brimmed fedora off a hat rack, hoofing it to him as well.
Smiling widely, he donned the coat and hat before tucking her into bed. "Sleep well my little dark angel." He kissed her on her right cheek. "Be good for your mother." He kissed her on her left cheek. "And be bad for me." Leaving the happily dozing filly in bed, he headed out into the night when he felt a buzzing at his hip. "Huh, I didn't know I still got reception way out here." He pulled his cell phone out and flipped it open. "Yello!" He pulled back from the earpiece as rather loud bitching could just barely be made out through the receiver. "Damn it, Integra, I thought I'd blocked your number! What's it take to have you get the message I quit? Get the police girl to do it!" He promptly hung up before storming off into the Everfree Forest. "This walk is going to need to be very enthusiastic." He grinned as he patted the holsters at his hips. "Should be quite fun."
Fucking yes, All of my yesses to you, sir! I don't think I can say how much I truly love this.
Also, for that guy (Whoever you may be) that doesn't know who her father is...It's Alucard. TFS version to be exact.
3633632
Glad you enjoy it so much. As soon as I get confirmation that this has been approved, I'll work on more chapters.
Once that happens, any chance you could link this on your story? I'd love the extra publicity.
3633644 Totally, and maybe if it wasn't too much trouble, you could do the same for mine.
3633656
Done.
3633668 Whoa that was quick. As soon as this story goes live I'll put on TFS goes to Equestria.
3633695
It's approved! It's visible now!
3633698 Who the buck? I LOVE HER DAD BUT WHO IS HE?
3633713
Start with this video. That'll explain it all.
3633713 TFS version Alucard.
3633698 It's up there, right above Super Kami Guru allows this. It's glorious.
3633721>>3633722 BEST! DAD! EVER!!!!
3633746
Now just think about who the Mom is.
3633756 The girl Van Helsing or that random chick he made into a vampire?
3633764
And how would that create a filly? Think again.
3633772 3633764 Great, now I'm gonna be watching the comments till he gets it.
The title is misleading, I thought Scootaloo's parents in this fic were Bat Ponies. Though it would explain a few things...
Damn you wrote this fast, and it was pretty friggin good
Is he gonna see Pinkie Pie's Party Canon? Because Bitches love canons
3633800
Don't know yet, maybe.
Awesome! Faving!
You damn crazy bastard you did it. I figured it out at the blue wisp smacking him. Of course I know who mommy is, but I'll never tell.
I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't realize who it was until Integra called him.
3633721 Didn't realize it was the Abridged version though.
Okay, so, clearly her father is some sort of blood sucking biped, most likely a vampire. I'm gonna go ahead and guess the two that everyone else is thinking of and say it's either Dracula or Alucard.
3634026
Take a look at the comments. It's not meant to be a secret reveal.
3634130
As long as you enjoyed the story, I don't mind in the slightest.
3634037 ... Well, I feel dumb now
3634159
No need to. Rather, feel silly.
3634166 That seems like an excellent plan!
My best guess is Dante from DMC.
3634204
Check the linked story.
3634216 I'm going to, I just wanted to take a guess before I did so.
3634229
Ah. Okay.
Oh fuck the hell YES!
Needed here.
3633772 Wait... NIGHTMARE MOON?! WHAT THE BU-*brain explodes due to too much awesome*
I get it! Very clever! But if HE is Scoots dad... Then that must mean... EWWWWW! Dude that is just disturbing.
Great start. Can't wait to find out who her mother is.
I second stop laughing this is so f****** funny
Okay, this is just too funny to pass up.
I figured out who her father was the moment he said 'papist pricks'. Congrats, sir, this story has another watcher!
Also, I know it's inappropriate, but... can we have an update to your Apple Bloom Changeling story? Please?
3636683
You will at some point.
I can only guess that Alucard is Scootaloos father. That has to be some interesting times for sure. But im curious to her mother could be. I got a couple of possible ideas. I will say this...if someone hurts Scootaloo i would not want to be them at ALL!!!!
I figured it out when I read the comments.
On Colonel J's Team Four Star goes to Equestria.
3637349
Now imagine being Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara when this comes out.
I wondered when this crossover would happen. Admittedly, I hoped I'd be first. Oh well. Still, I like the idea of Alucard interacting with Scoots. If you don't mind terribly, I think I'd like to use that kind of relationship in my own. Rest assured, in mine, they aren't related.
Posturing aside, well done. This is funny as hell.
OH YES. THIS WILL DO NICELY. LETS TAKE A WALK ALLY. IT WILL BE GREAT
I feel slow, it took me till the mention of walks to figure it out... although do I get credit for figuring out the vampirism at the meat paste or whatever it was comment?
a very enthusiastic walk in the woods.
there's only one character I know who does that!
Yes yes yes omg yes thank you!!!!
I figured scoots dad was a vampire really early, but when you mentioned the red trench coat and fedora i got thinking that he dresses an awful lot like Alucard. Integra and police girl confirmed it.
I approve of Scootapire
TFS Alucard this should be good.
As for Author's Note question I Was thinking Alucard after "red sauce" and was sure its TFS after " "Oh, go ahead and call it crusading. It's not like those papist pricks ever caught me! Spent to much time looking in little Timmy's pants!"
Once it clicked with the coat, hat, and phone call I was all Then I was, HOW THE HECK DID SCOOT'S PARENTS MEET AND SETTLE DOWN TO HAVE A KID????
I didn't notice the question until recently.. I think it was the blood.
