No. What the buck was she thinking? Scootaloo threw the noose away from her and stepped down off the chair. Rainbow and Spitfire weren't going to give up on her. She was not going to give up on them. Gone was the broken and helpless filly that wrapped that cord around her neck. The lyrics from one of her favorite songs came to mind. "You can't break me." She wasn't going to let herself break over this. "Crush the fears of yesterday." She knew what she had to do. She swallowed. She was not going to enjoy this...
"Applebloom, Ah need ta talk ta ya." Applejack wasn't going to enjoy the conversation she was about to have with her little sister. It was going to tear Applebloom apart to hear that her friend wouldn't be coming back from Canterlot. The little filly was worried enough about Scootaloo without knowing that she had been sent back to a horrible family situation. Applejack decided to spare the details. Applebloom had obviously been crying over her friend's recent absence.
"Is it about Scootaloo? Is she OK?" Applejack sighed.
"It might be a while before you see Scootaloo."
"Why? Is she still at th' hospital?" Applejack hated herself for not being able to lie to her sister to put her at ease.
"No, she ain't at th' hospital. She's with her parents in Canterlot. Th' Princess decided she should stay with them instead o' Rainbow an' Spitfire." Tears came to Applebloom's eyes.
"W-what? Scootaloo told me her dad was hurting her! That he left her behind in Ponyville all alone before a snowstorm! Why's she there?!" Applebloom was bawling.
"We're doin' everythin' we can ta get her back here. Don't you fret one bit. She'll be back here before ya know she left." This was technically not a lie. While Applejack couldn't predict the future or support her claim that Scootaloo would be home soon, she did believe it to be true. And technically, the seven mares who had been forcibly ejected from Canterlot WERE doing everything they could at the moment to get her back. Unfortunately with the restraints on the pegasi and unicorns of the group, they couldn't do bucking thing. It burned at Applejack. She wondered how Rarity was breaking the news to Sweetie Belle...
"Sweetie Belle, please. There's no need to cry. Scootaloo will be back in Ponyville before you know it."
"How do you know sis?! You told me she would come home with you and that didn't happen!" Sweetie Belle was sobbing. "You told me she'd fly home right next to your chariot and everything would be fine! You promised me-"
"Sweetie Belle, I'm so sorry. We never could have expected Princess Celestia to rule that way. It...it..." Rarity didn't hide her anger very well. "It's a travesty of justice! We'll bring back Scootaloo before you know it, I promise! This time, I'll keep it or chip a hoof trying!" As pathetic as Rarity's last statement was, it meant everything to Sweetie Belle. Rarity, promising to damage part of her carefully manicured hooves if she couldn't succeed meant she had put a task as much to heart as Applejack did every year come applebuck season. She truly was more concerned about Twilight than her carefully manicured hoof. Having her trust betrayed by her lifelong mentor had to be horrible beyond imagination...
Back in the library, Spike belched and a letter appeared bearing the Royal Seal."
"Twilight, you have a letter from the Princess. Want me to re-"
"Burn it Spike. I'm not her student anymore."
"What? Twilight, are you-"
"She just condemned an innocent filly to suffering for the sake of preserving her political image. I have no more business with her. Burn the letter." Spike was torn. Although he was technically supposed to ensure that Twilight was made fully aware of the content of every letter sent to her by the Princess, his loyalties lied with Twilight not the government. He walked to the fire he had ready for Twilight's return and uncomfortably threw it in. He knew Twilight was having a hard time dealing with Scootaloo's absence, but he had no idea she was this pissed.
"Twilight, what are you reading?"
"A forbidden spells book. I'm brushing up on combat magic."
"What kind of combat spells would be in a book of forbidden spells?" Spike was very worried. Twilight had never wanted to harm anypony before. Just the concept of forbidden combat magic usually made her cringe. Now she was studying it? He didn't like where this was going. A unicorn with her power should not be studying those spells."
"The kind that can turn a pony into pulp. Preferably a pony by the name of Jade Crestfall." Spike swallowed. Twilight was studying magic as a means to kill somepony. Spike knew he had to stop her. He began to write a letter back to the Princess when a hoof knocked the parchment out of his hand.
"Spike, you know I appreciate everything you've done for me. And I know you're trying to help. But you will not get in my way on this. And neither will the Princess. Do you understand?" Spike swallowed and nodded. Spike had no idea how Twilight had gotten to him so quickly. She was supposed to have her magic restrained. There was no way she could have teleported to him. He looked over and saw Twilight's horn glow as she turned a page in her book. She had broken the restraints on her magic. The restraints the Princess herself had placed.
"Twilight, this isn't you! You would never consider hurting anypony!"
"Sometimes you have to do what you have to do. Even if you don't like it." Spike swallowed. If Twilight was in a killing mood over this, he was terrified of what Rainbow and Spitfire were planning..."
Rainbow fought against the restraints on her wings. She wasn't going to let her daughter be lost like that. Not when things were starting to get good.
"Rainbow, you're not going to break the restraints. Give it up. We can go save her when they break." Spitfire was on the couch. It had never felt so empty in their cloud home. Without the energetic filly running around the house or pumping the bass from her bedroom speakers, the place just felt wrong.
"NO! I'M NOT GIVING UP! NOT NOW!" Rainbow was screaming, mostly to herself. "I...can't...hnng...give up..." She fell to the floor. She lowered her head. "I guess I don't have much of a choice, huh?" A tear slid down her cheeks. She hadn't felt so helpless since the incident with Sky Scraper. At least back it was just her. Now she had somepony to protect and she couldn't. She was stuck in her cloud home and couldn't even flap her wings. She felt a warm presence curl up against her. She leaned in to Spitfire. The two mares let there emotions pour out as they sobbed. They wished they could do something, ANYTHING to get Scootaloo back home.
"We'll get her back Rainbow. For now we have to wait."
"The waiting is what's tearing me up inside. I can't wait, I have to act."
"I know Rainbow. That's part of the reason I married you."
"Huh?"
"When I saw your undying loyalty to your friends I knew I could always count on you. I know that Scootaloo can count on you right now. This won't be over until we say it's over. We're getting our daughter back. No matter what the cost." Rainbow loved her wife more in that moment than she had at any time since their wedding. The two mares shared a kiss. Short at first, then long and passionate. As horrible as the timing was, they had to do something to help them relax. Until an unmistakable voice was heard from behind them. One that normally warmed their hearts upon hearing. One that usually brought out the motherly instincts in both of them.
"Uh, am I interrupting something?" Rainbow and Spitfire yelped and turned to look in the direction of the voice. Scootaloo stood in the doorway. She was far more battered than either of the mares had ever seen her. Moreso than any of her "Crusading" had left her, more than the night Rainbow took her home. Their jaws dropped as the sprinted to her and gingerly wrapped their forelegs around her.
"Scoot, what are you doing here? What happened? Rainbow asked. She was horribly worried for the filly in the doorway. Until a short, cliche sentence escaped Scootaloo's lips. One that Rainbow and Spitfire had only ever heard in movies. The last sentence Rainbow and Spitfire expected to hear at the moment.
"You should see the other guy."

... Scoots, you're going to jail... You're SOOOOOO going to jail... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! (Shortened by 99.999% for the sake of length.)

yay
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the end of this chapter made me very happy 
can't wait for the next and i'm so glad you released this chapter early. The cliffhanger felt like it reached out of my computer screen and slapped me 
I just love this story it is my current #1 favorite. And, you are doing an awesome job on it
what! how!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ... I don't even know whats going on! Twilight scares the shit out of me now
!
Scoots is a secret back belt!
what is going on! is Discord around an we don't see him! Holy hell this is a fantastic story!! 
MORE! for all that is pony! I must have more! I am yelling at me screen in real life because the chapter is over!!
Twilight is apparently so strong she can break the magical restraints put in place by the princess and that's kinda scary but at the same time really awesome. Since she's free of her restraints why hasn't she gone and removed the restraints from Rainbow, Spitfire and Rarity? Unless she's leaving them in their restraints until she can learn the spells she wants before gathering everyone to pay Jade Crestfall a visit.
Oh dear...It's safe to assume that nopony else knows that Twilight is free of her restraints and in her current state of mind. Hopefully Rainbow and Spitfire will decide to make rounds visiting the rest of the group and finding Twilight before she goes off and does something rash. For all we know Scootaloo may have already taken care of that but we should probably wait until it's explained for that cause who knows what kind of actual damage Scoot can do.
(<--luna) +spitfire vs. 
+ skyscraper.... Most powerful unicorn in Equestria and an Alicorn alon with the rest of the mane 6 and likely 2 wonderbolts (if soarin joins) against an Alicorn who can't even overpower her protegé and a pegasus who got beaten up by his own daughter... can u say "easy bet"?
Lol her dad didn't know she could fly, fast for that matter.
Oh and Twilight? Fucken powerful. I half expected Rainbow Dash to go crazy amounts of power mode with her element like, spark with red lightning kind of crazy, during the court scene.
Or have Luna mind read Mr. Crapfall, sorry Crestfall. And see all the beatings that he gave Scoots. ALSO you should've mentioned his face, and reactions. 'Cause a sickly smile washed on by gain is not what you'd present after getting your kid back.
Just to get it out there, I know there is nothing natural about gay/lesbian (Coltcuddlers/Fillyfoolers) In fact I stand by that: "There is nothing natural about gay relationships..." But my idea goes on, "... but in that point, there is nothing 'natural' or biological keeping a male with a male or a female with a female, therefore making their relationships the strongest." So yeah...
Have a long comment...
...

Essan out.
twilight should go see sky scraper, and burn off his dick. Then tear off his wings. Then drop him from a sky scraper. Man I thought I couldn't rage any harder, last chapter proved me otherwise. I'm happy scoot beat up her dad one less thing to rage about... But, seriously Mr. Author in the last chapter I was so angry that I went to a shooting range and put a picture of a pony and wrote sky scraper above it on the target a shit load of times.. That is how hard I was raging....
I hope Scoot strangled her father. I hope she strangled him. I hope he suffered too. I hope he had to look into the face of his daughter and realize that his power over her was draining away along with his very breath. I hope he had time to see that by treating her the way he did, and keeping her under his hoof, that he invoked his own demise. I PRAY that's what happened to him.
Ha!
Scoot's back before they know it! That's called efficiency, talk to Twilight if you need more elaboration on the matter (Of efficiency. You know, because she's so organised? Oh forget it 
).
Speaking of Twilight, what the buck? That was scary, she's honestly going to try and kill Sky Scraper? I'm not gonna post wild theories of where that will lead, but that seemed too hasty for Twilight. I mean, I suppose that's not necessarily OOC. She can get fierce, pissed off, and generally stubborn, we've seen that. It's not her rage that bothered me. What confused me about that was how a pony of Twilight's intellect so quickly decided violence was the only way. Even going only by the comments on the last chapter there were tons of ways for them to have proved Crestfall isn't a suitable guardian and get him pwned by the law. I'm just surprised she jumped the gun there. Seemed off to me.
>>73502 <---- Sorry about that, I forgot to post something positive. 
Scoot's a bad-flank . Straight up. Overcoming a suicidal urge and then kicking your abusive father's flank before running away from home? Just wow 
. As wrong as that is, it's oddly inspiring. Gotta hand it to 'em, ponies will find a way no matter what, eh?
I'm anxious to see the next part of this. Depending on how smart Scoot is, she could have just let her dad beat her to get some damning evidence; it's not like he's hard to bait.
I understand where Twilight's at and completely support her. You may think you put out the fire, but the embers will smolder and wait, biding their time until they can engulf again.
That's what I call a kick-ass ending! Now what are the consequences for the merciless beating and killing of you father?.......
also <-----------------
double also, I. Hate. You. Now. primal. I Have sat here for 4 and a half hours getting caught up on this story and writing comments. Not that that's a bad thing I guess! I'm really enjoying the story! (Kidding about hate if you can't tell)
...... Okay normally a do NOT read sad fics but I can say with pride that I'm happy to read this.
You have taken the characters and not only capture their personalities but also showed how they would really react an said situation.
Good example would be Celestia which while I am NOT happy with her choice I do see the bigger picture and understand WHY she had to do it.
So what I'm trying to say is that I LOVE this fic
P.S. I hope you tell us what Scoots did to the other guy hehehehehehe MUAHAHAHAHAHA

Sweet Holy Luna your rendition of Twilight is frightening! She was scary enough when she was just over powering the royal guards. Now she is working on a spell that not even the princess could stop? After breaking a spell the princess had cast? Scary! I hope they remember to tell her that Scootaloo escaped!
