    Just about everypony in Ponyville knows Scootaloo. She's your normal, carefree pegasus foal who crusades for her cutie mark, zips around town on her scooter, and looks up to her idol Rainbow Dash. But what if that's not all there is to her? Scootaloo worries that her friends will find out that she's not the foal they know and love, or that she's not even a foal at all. But, when her secret does come out, their reactions might surprise her.

    Well, well, it looks like me and Moon Fire have some competition.  En garde!

    Nah, I jest.  It's a simple enough idea that shouldn't be monopolised.  We need more Scootaling stories, though the title is a little obvious.  I'm also curious how this story's going to turn out.  Friendship testing, witch hunt dodging, being accepted as a changeling, all that obvious stuff?

    I'll be expecting a good twist soon.

    This looks like something that's out of ordinary! No one has ever thought of somepony being a changeling! This is like the fact that a normal human girl wants to go to ponyville, and she does but, she's half pony and changeling. <<<<This was from a story I read. :scootangel: It's really good. So good that I read it a couple of times over and over. This.... Looks very promising! I'll put it on my 'Read Later' list and tell you what my opinion on it was! And congrats for making it onto the featured my dear brony/pegasister! :twilightsmile:

    This might actually make sense if it's done right!  She could have used her mental powers to just cause everypony to gloss over the fact that no one has ever seen or heard a thing about her family.

    I shall read.

    Now, make her evil so I can hate her and feed upon Scootabuse! (Alondro is an anti-changeling.  He feeds on hate, sorrow, and fear!)

    Also I happen to be writing my own changeling fic and came up with my own reasoning as to why changelings need love and it might be of use to you if you haven't already settled on your own explanation.

    My explanation actually makes it so changelings do need food and water but love is absolutly essential for their survival, you will find it in my er... "story" (click and you will under stand) over here under the section nearish to the top under the bold "SPECIAL NOTE"

    see what you think and let me know.

    Actually there is changeling version of every pony.

    *Challenge accepted!*

    Let's see... First is Fluttershy changeling and Twilight Sparkle vampire.

    Twilight Sparkle changeling.

    Human in Pinkie body. Hey... That wasn't supposed to be here.

    Rarity a changeling queen (check prequels).

    I don't remember what is here, but should be something along those lines.

    Everyone a changeling.

    Second line pony a changeling.

    Relatives with changeling.

    Again Twilight is changeling.

    I forgot who is changeling here... Sorry.

    *Complete!*

    Wow... I have 22 fav pages. :pinkiegasp:

    And that is just stories I found and think they are okay or good to read (pony is changeling by request).

    Scootaloo is a changeling. This explains so much!

    Oh, wait. She wasn't thrown outside of Canterlot. How did that happen?

    The idea has appeal, and it's ironic because of all the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Scootaloo is the one who's most secure in herself.

    However, the prose could use some revamping. Most of the story is dialogue, and the events going on have to stop every time we get a peek at scoot's thought process. It would feel more vivid if we got immersive description and a look inside scootaloo's head. Is the changeling truth always praying on her mind? If we could sense the internal dilemma when she's apparently doing normal cutie mark crusader things, it would add depth and purpose to the shenanigans.

    I must say that the idea of scootaloo becoming rainbow dash is a creepy, amusing, and cute extension of her fandom. I just think the secret would feel more "real" and relevant if you had richer scenes and more character internality. The characterization in The Adventures of Daring Dash and Derpy Doo springs to mind.
