A few years have passed, Scootaloo's wings are still broken, and unable to fly. But she is used to it, and she's okay if she couldn't fly.
"Leave the past, Forget the things you've done, and Move forward."
A few years have passed, Scootaloo's wings are still broken, and she is unable to fly. But she's used to it, and she's okay if she can't fly. She's now living in the same old Ponyville, except the cliff have been protected with fences, so nopony could ever have the same accident again.
"It's already been about 4 years seen's the accident. I don't really care that much anymore."
"Hey Scootaloo!" Applebloom said as she waved happily to Scootaloo in the distance. Scootaloo saw Applebloom and ran to her. "How's life?" Applebloom asked.
"Bad." Scootaloo said, acting grumpy.
Applebloom tilted her head, "But ah thought..."
"Hahaha! I gotcha!" Scootaloo rubbed Applebloom's head, and messed up her hair.
"Hah, nice one." Applebloom said as she rubbed her head, so her hair is tidy and neat once again. "So, wanna help me and Sweetie Belle out with the farm?"
Scootaloo smiled "Sure! I got nothing to do right now." She followed Applebloom into the farm and saw Sweetie Belle bucking some apple trees, she stopped once she saw Scootaloo coming in.
"Huh. That's weird. Who is this pony?" Sweetie Belle joked.
Scootaloo laughed, "I don't know, who am i?" she played along.
The three ponies laughed, and then bro-hoofed each other. "So let's get bucking!" Applebloom said cheerfully.
Scootaloo was never the type of pony who farms, but she did try to help Applebloom out as many days as she could, for she have no job, and she help Applebloom out, because Applejack pays her some bits once she's done. Scootaloo was bucking an apple tree, and once she had kicked the tree, five apples dropped on the top of her head. "EIIOUCH!"
Applebloom went to see what was wrong, but it's just apples hitting Scootaloo on the head. Applebloom helped Scootaloo up and Sweetie Belle helped picked up the apples which dropped on the ground. "Still practicing?" Sweetie Belle asked. Scootaloo nodded, feeling a little embarrassed about what had happened. "Aw, don't be sad, Scoot. You'll get the hang of it soon. I know i do!" Sweetie Belle trotted off to another apple tree, and kicked it.
Few hours later...
"Looks like we're done here. We've bucked almost half of the orchard." Applebloom said, wiping off the sweat with a cloth. "So, what do y'all feel like doing now?"
Sweetie Belle looked at the clock which is in the barn, and she said "Oppsie! I have to go! Performance at three in the afternoon, can't be late! See ya gals later!" Sweetie Belle ran off as quickly as she could.
"Sweetie Belle and her music performance." Scootaloo said, rolling her eyes. "Why does Sweetie Belle's schedule have to be so tight anyways?" Scootaloo asked. But all she got is a shrug from Applebloom.
Applebloom just noticed something, "We never ever spend any time together with Sweetie Belle as much as me and you do." Scootaloo exactly knows why, and so does Applebloom.
Scootaloo clears her throat and tries to put on a squeaky voice, like Sweetie Belle's. "My name is Sweetie Belle, and i am a fabulous pony! If only i could spend more time with my friends..." she sighed as she finished her sentence. "You're right, Applebloom. Why doesn't she spend any time with us? I know she has all those performance and all, but does she have any day off?"
Applebloom didn't think so, so she just shake her head. They both sighed. "Ain't mad about yer wings?" Applebloom said, changing the subject.
"These little things? Nah... They don't bother me a bit." Scootaloo replied, poking her broken wings.
"Why are ya still wearing that bandage anyway?" Applebloom asked.
Scootaloo thought for a moment. "I have no idea."
"Do ya wanna take it out? Maybe, let yer wings come out and feel the fresh air."
"Yeah, sure, why not?" Scootaloo said, as she untied the bandage, revealing her not-so-broken wings, which is already grown to a full grown mare's wings, just like Rainbow Dash's. But instead, it can't be used to fly.
"Woah, that's beautiful..." Applebloom was impressed with the wings that Scootaloo had.
"Too bad it can't be used to fly. The doctor still says that the muscle for the wings are still weak." Scootaloo said, not feeling sad at all. She liked staying on the ground, as far as she knows. "I have to go now. My sister is probably waiting. See ya later, AB!"
"Bye!" Applebloom waved goodbye as she sees Scootaloo running along the road and slowly disappear.
Scootaloo reached to her house on the ground, and Rainbow Dash was inside the house, preparing some food, eventually. "So, what's for lunch?"
"Oh, you know, normal diasy sandwich." Rainbow Dash replied. "Here ya go, kiddo."
"Thanks sis." Scootaloo said as she begins munching down the sandwhich Rainbow Dash had gave her. "So, how's your work today?"
"Meh."
Scootaloo kept munching down the sandwich and said "That doesn't sound good at all." She said as she accidentally spitted out some daisy flowers. She gulped down the food in her mouth. "Opps... My bad."
"Did you tell Applebloom about your wings?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"No, not yet." Scootaloo said. "I just want to keep it a secret for a little longer."
Rainbow Dash nodded. It wasn't her for decide, it was for Scootaloo. Scootaloo helped Rainbow Dash wash her plate and once she's done, she went out. "I needa go to see Sweetie Belle's performance now. Wanna come along?"
"Nah, i rather stay here and rest, i'm bushed!" Rainbow Dash said.
Scootaloo just went along with it and left. Running as fast as she can to the town hall, she made it just in time before the performance starts. She sat beside Applebloom, and they both watched Sweetie Belle's music performance. It was so graceful, yet sad, even Scootaloo shed a few tears, but Applebloom just cried everywhere, but held in her voice.
At the end of the performance, Sweetie Belle's fans got off their seats and quickly ran to Sweetie Belle as fast as they could.
"May i have your autograph?" "Do you mind singing another song?" "I really love your song!"
Sweetie Belle just teleported her way out of the crowd, and to where Applebloom and Scootaloo were standing. "So, what do ya think?"
"It was... It was..." Applebloom begins to sniffle a few times. "It was amazing! You done a great job!"
"I can't help but agree with Applebloom. You did an amazing job." Scootaloo said happily.
"Come on, ah'll treat y'all to a cupcake at Sugarcube Corner!" Applebloom said.
"Oh yeah!" Scootaloo said. "Woohoo!" Sweetie Belle said at the same time Scootaloo said.
They walked together in a group, and walked to Sugarcube Corner. Pinkie Pie was baking a few muffins, and some cupcakes when they reached there.
"Oh hey there girls, how are you doing?" Pinkie asked, giving a huge smile.
"We're doing fine, Pinkie. Do ya mind giving us yer best cupcake?" Applebloom said, looking back at Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle. "Me and Scootaloo had asked Pinkie to make a very special cupcake just fer ya."
Sweetie Belle happily bounced up and down like a child, "You both are so kind! I could just hug you both!" But, eventually, she hugged Applebloom and Scootaloo anyways.
"Ouch... I can't... breathe.... help... me...." Scootaloo said, trying to catch her breath. "Tooooooo.... tight!!!" Applebloom said as she tries to loosen up Sweetie Belle's tight hug.
"Order up!' Pinkie said as she bounced back to the kitchen.
Sweetie Belle walked up to the counter and saw a tray with one special cupcake, decorated with white sprinkles, purple and pink cream, with a picture of her cutie mark on it, a heart and a musical note. "Oh my gosh! It's so amazing!" She sniffed the cupcake, to get a good smell of it. "Mmmmm... Blueberry Vanilla, how'd you know it's my favourite?"
Scootaloo stared at Applebloom, who stared back at Scootaloo.
"Let's just say that we both know at least half of your favourite things." Scootaloo replied.
"Hah, you both make a good team actually. Not to mention, you both really plan a lot of things for me by working together." Sweetie Belle said, eating the cupcake.
"Yeah, good team. Maybe ah should make a cape that says 'TEAM!" Applebloom joked.
The three ponies laughed and giggled.
Few minutes later...
"It's kinda getting late. It's time for us to go back home." Sweetie Belle said, about to leave.
"You're right, we should really be going." Scootaloo agreed with Sweetie Belle. "Ya coming, AB?"
Applebloom snapped out of her thoughts, "Huh? Eh, no. You both go along first. I needa stay here fer something."
"Okay, see ya tomorrow then." Scootaloo said, closing the door for Sugarcube Corner.
Scootaloo walked home, and was greeted by Rainbow Dash, "So, how's your day at Sugarcube Corner with your friends?"
"It's amazing! Sweetie Belle liked her cupcake, and you should have seen her performance, it is totally spectacular!" Scootaloo said happily.
"That's awesome, kiddo!" Rainbow Dash said.
"I can't wait for tomorrow, it's gonna be a blast!" Scootaloo said, as she went to her room.
The next morning, Scootaloo woke up early, and made pancakes for herself to eat. She even left some pancake for her sister to eat, and off she went, outside the door, bright and early.
Scootaloo inhale the air and thought to herself, "Fresh air... Nothing like good old Ponyville." She likes Ponyville the way it is, and hoping it would never change. She begin trotting around Ponyville, passing the rivers, ponds, parks, houses, and even stores. She went to the train station, nopony there. "Must be me just doing my so called 'early routine' haha!" Scootaloo thought to herself as she left the train station.
She went to the area where she had fell a few years ago, looking down at the edge, holding onto the fence. She still remember the area where she fell, and the area where Applebloom once fell, but never happened after she asked Sweetie Belle to send her to the past. "Sightseeing?" a voice which is absolutely familiar called out. Scootaloo looked behind, she saw Sweetie Belle wearing her coat. It's 5 in the morning, and it's kinda chilly in Ponyville.
"What are you doing up so early?" Scootaloo asked her friend who is standing behind her.
Sweetie Belle went closer to the edge, which is being blocked by fences, and told Scootaloo "I was going to ask you the same thing."
"Well, i'm just looking at the area where i once, you know." Scootaloo said, in her normal voice, and not wanting to say what happen, because she intend to forget it as fast as she could.
Sweetie Belle putted her hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder, "Scootaloo, it is time you put all these horrible memories away. Throw them out, ditch them. Don't keep them. Forget them. They'll only bring you back all those painful memories."
Scootaloo nodded and gently pushed Sweetie Belle's hoof off her shoulder. "I was trying to, but it doesn't seem to let me forget it."
"I know one way to make bad memories go away." Sweetie Belle said, and Scootaloo's face lit up.
"How?" Scootaloo immediately stood up with four hooves on ground.
"First of, i think you need to relax."
Scootaloo was silent. "What? That's how i get my bad memories to go away." Sweetie Belle said, shrugging. Scootaloo just went with it and tried to relax as much as she could.
"Follow me." Sweetie Belle said as she walked to the direction of the park. Scootaloo tagged along. They reached the park, it was peaceful and quiet. The birds were still asleep, no pony, other than them were awake. "Remember when we were just little fillies, we wanted our cutie marks so badly, that we tried hang-gliding?"
"Yeah! I do remember! And we eventually got covered in tree sap." Scootaloo burst out laughing, and so does Sweetie Belle. "Oh! Do ya still remember that part where we brohoof, and eventually got stuck?"
Sweetie Belle giggled, "How can i forget that?" Scootaloo just gave a shrug, because she doesn't know what to say.
"Hey, you say you have a new pet cat? What's her name?" Scootaloo changed the subject.
"Her name is Puffy, because when i first adopted her, her fur was so puffy!" Sweetie Belle said. "Wanna meet her?" Scootaloo just nodded, and off they went to the boutique. "I'm home, Rarity!" Sweetie Belle said as she entered the room, but nopony replied. "Oh right, Rarity's still asleep."
A little cat suddenly ran across the room and starts purring and walking in circles rubbing it's face on Sweetie Belle's right hoof. "Oh, did my little Puffy miss me?" She nuzzled her little cat's nose, and levitated it to Scootaloo. "Meet Puffy!"
"Hey there Puffy." Scootaloo waved, but Puffy gave her a hiss, and Scootaloo backed out about twenty steps back.
Sweetie Belle turned Puffy's direction, and said "Naughty kitty! She's not a threat, she's my friend. Now, go apologize to her." she put Puffy down on the ground, and Puffy slowly walked towards Scootaloo, who is backing away each time the cat come closer, until she ran out of places to go.
Scootaloo went upstairs instead, and the cat just followed. "Eh... Sweetie Belle, do you mind levitating that kitty of yours? I think it wants my throat.." Scootaloo said, shivering.
"Don't be silly, Scoot! She doesn't want your throat!" Sweetie Belle said.
Scootaloo just glared at Sweetie Belle as she kept moving backwards and hit a wall. She looked at the cat, and the cat just kept getting closer and closer. "That cat is going to kill me!" Scootaloo thought to herself, and closed her eyes. But instead of getting cut by the neck, she felt a soft fur rubbing around her hooves.
She opened her eyes and found Puffy purring around her hooves. "I told ya so." Sweetie Belle said. "You're just being ridiculous with that 'Puffy's going to kill me' thing. Puffy's not evil." Sweetie Belle laughed.
Scootaloo looked into the cat's eyes. The cat's eyes felt so cold, yet evil looking. "You evil cat..." she whispered to that cat softly. But the cat didn't seem to notice, and went downstairs to her bed and sleep.
"I sometimes don't get your cat. So do you." Scootaloo said, glaring at the cat.
Sweetie Belle rolled her eyes, "You don't get anything, Scoot."
"Meh, you're right." Scootaloo just agreed with it.
"So, is there anything you wanna do? Cause' i'm kinda bored right now. I mean, it's like six in the morning, and nopony's awake yet." Sweetie Belle asked.
"Hm..." Scootaloo was thinking out loud. "How about we head to Sweet Apple Acres? I mean, when we get there, i bet it's already six and a half, and that is when the apple family wakes up. Right?"
Sweetie Belle thought for a moment, then agreed. "Let's go. But let's just take our time walking there, give them some more time to rest or do their stuff." Scootaloo nodded, and they walked out of the boutique, and slowly walk to the farm. Slowly walk...
Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo finally reached Sweet Apple Acres, and found Applebloom and the other apple family awake. “Why, howdy y'all crusaders. Whatcha doing up bright and early?” Applejack asked.
“We were bored, so we came here." Sweetie Belle answered.
"So, we were wondering if there is anything we could help ya out." Scootaloo continued.
Applejack thought for a second, "Well, we sure do need another helping hoof on the farm, so come on it." Applejack welcomed them into the barn, and they exited through the other door, which leads to the apple farm. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo met with Applebloom behind the barn.
"Hey there, Applebloom." Sweetie Belle said, trotting over to Applebloom.
Applebloom woke up from her sleep, "Huh? What?"
"Yer friends are here to help, cause' they had nothing else to do." Applejack said, "So, ah'm gonna leave yer to it. Feel free to come to the kitchen fer some apple juice!" she said going back into the barn.
Scootaloo begin to buck some apple trees, so does Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. They chatted as they buck the trees. "So, whatcha gals doing up so early?" Applebloom asked, putting the bucket of apples away.
"For me, i was just sightseeing," Scootaloo answered, as one apple fell onto her head. Scootaloo picked the apple back up, and put it in the bucket.
"I was with Scootaloo," Sweetie Belle said, happily waving five apples using her magic.
Applebloom laughed at the sight of the five apples waving like it was alive. Sweetie Belle levitated more apples, and make it into a form of a pony, and changes her voice into a deep voice. "Hey, my name is Apple. You know, red apple, green apple, rainbow apple?" Sweetie Belle joked.
Scootaloo looked at the apple pony, "You're not suppose to be alive!" Scootaloo just joined in the conversation, and pretended the pony was real. "Besides, you're for eating." Scootaloo went along.
Sweetie Belle giggled and fell onto the ground laughing, as Applebloom picked the fallen apples and putted them into a bigger bucket. "Okay, let's stop fooling around now. We have until tomorrow to pick all these apples!"
"Why so early?" Scootaloo asked, helping Applebloom with the apples.
"Well, there is a few more weeks til' Apple Harvest, and everypony will want to drink Apple cider, so we have to gather as much as we can." Applebloom replied, as she bucked another apple tree.
Scootaloo just kept silence and helped Applebloom out with the apples, as Sweetie Belle is still laughing hard on the ground.
After about 2 hours of apple bucking...
"That was sure a lot of apple trees!" Sweetie Belle said wiping the sweat off her forehead.
Applebloom and Scootaloo nodded in agreement. "Well, ah can't blame yer fer working so slow." Applebloom said, joking around.
"So, we're done with the apple bucking, so, wanna go hang out in the park? It's been a while when we hang out together, all three of us." Scootaloo said.
Applebloom just nodded, and Sweetie Belle jumped in joy, making a spark with her horn. All three of them walked to the park, and they sat down on the bench, with Scootaloo on the ground.
"You're sure you don't need to sit up here? I mean, we have plenty of space here." Sweetie Belle said, pushing herself a little to the side.
Scootaloo shook her head. "Nah, i'm okay down here."
“Oh. Okay, I guess. But if you want to sit up here, I'll be more than happy to share this place with you. I bet Applebloom don't mind too. I mean, we are your friends, after all.” Sweetie Belle said, looking at Applebloom who just nodded and said nothing. “So, what exactly should we do in the park?” Sweetie Belle asked, for she had forgotten why did they went to the park.
“Ah don't know. Why did we come here, Scoot?” Applebloom asked, wondering why did they went to the park early in the morning if they aren't doing anything at all.
Scootaloo sat on the ground, staring at the other end, seeing the moon and stars slowly fade away. “I just wanted to come here, because of the nature.” Scootaloo stood up, and inhale and exhale. “If you guys don't want to be here. We could go somewhere else where you could e more comfortable at. Where do you want to go, AB?”
Applebloom thought for a second, “Well, ah always wanted to visit Zecora again. It's been forever when we last see her!”
Sweetie Belle pushed Scootaloo to the ground, acting like a superhero and pointed up to the sky, “Well, what are we waiting for? To Zecora's hut!!!” Then Sweetie Belle ran off running in the direction of Fluttershy's cottage.
“Isn't that the direction of Fluttershy's cottage?” Scootaloo asked.
Applebloom nodded. “Yup.”
“But I thought the Everfree Forest was that way.” Scootaloo said in confusion, pointing to the right.
“Well, Fluttershy live near the forest, but t would take longer time to get to Zecora's hut. At the same time, it'll be nice to drop a visit by Fluttershy's cottage.
Scootaloo just went with it, with no other answers.
All of them reached at Fluttershy's cottage. “Hello? Fluttershy?” Sweetie Belle knocked the door. The door slowly opened. Standing there was Fluttershy.
“Oh, hello girls. What are you doing here?” Fluttershy asked politely.
“We just came here to visit. Mind if we come in?” Applebloom asked.
Fluttershy opened the bottom part of the door, “Oh, sure. Come in!”
“Thank you.” Sweetie Belle said. “Yeah, thanks!” Scootaloo said, a few seconds later than Sweetie Belle.
“I'll bring you some tea.” Fluttershy said as she went to a table with a few cups and a bottle of tea.
“That's mighty kind of a, Fluttershy.” Applebloom said politely, as she helped Fluttershy bring the tray of cups to the tiny table that is in the living hall.
“What brings you girls here?” Fluttershy asked as she took a sip out of her tea.
Scootaloo was the first to finish her tea, and she said “Applebloom wanted to visit Zecora, so me and Sweetie Belle just tagged along.”
“You want to go to the Everfree Forest?!” Fluttershy said, shivering. “Oh, no! That's too dangerous. Who knows what will be in the Everfree Forest?!”
“Fluttershy, it's okay. We're not kids anymore.” Sweetie Belle insure Fluttershy that everything will be fine, and they wouldn't get hurt when the come back home later.
“O-okay... I trust you. Just promise me nothing will happen to you three when you get back.” Fluttershy said gently, and politely, yet a little worried.
The three ponies finished their tea an thanked Fluttershy for having them over for a few minutes, and off they went into the Everfree Forest to meet their zebra friend, Zecora. They aren't afraid when they walked into the Everfree Forest. But since this is their first time ever taking Flutterhy's route to go to Zecora's hut, who knows what will happen...
The three ponies reached to Zecora's hut. But it was empty. “Hello? Zecora? Are ya there?” Applebloom asked, looking around the hut. Inside, outside, up, down, behind and front. But all she could find is a piece of paper laying down in the cauldron. “Whoever you are, if you're reading this. You do not have to worry about me. I have moved to a further area, it is certainly not as bad as I thought. So, don't worry about me, just keep calm.” Applebloom read the letter out loud. “That must be Zecora's first time writing normally, and not writing in rhyme. I'm impressed.”
“Impressed about what?” Sweetie Belle came into the hut, noticing Applebloom with the letter immediately. “What's that?” Sweetie Belle got closer to Applebloom, and Applebloom showed the letter to Sweetie Belle, letting her have a closer look at the letter.
“It's from Zecora. She moved to another area. And I'm impressed because I didn't know she was able to write normally. I thought she would write in rhymes and stuff.” Applebloom said, showing Sweetie Belle the letter. Sweetie Belle took the letter from Applebloom's hooves and read it in her mind.
“Wait, she moved away?” Sweetie asked, as she saw Applebloom's head shook up and down. “Aw!” Sweetie Belle sighed.
“So, what should we do now? Ah mean, we have a few more hours.” Applebloom said looking around the abandoned hut. “It doesn't seem like Zecora will be coming back anytime soon.” Applebloom touched the hut's wall, feeling the wood's smoothness. “Maybe we can make good use with this hut here.”
“Are you sure about that? What if Zecora comes back?” Sweetie Belle asked.
“Aw, come on now. She said she moved. Well, yeah, I do feel sad. But we can't just leave Zecora's hut abandoned, and unclean. If Zecora came back, either way, she'll find her hut filled with spider webs and insects!” Applebloom said, as Sweetie Belle thought it through. “Well, if we change this place into some kind of sleeping or camping area for us, we can make it for anypony. Well, of course, only certain ponies.” Applebloom said, walking around in circles.
“I don't know, Applebloom. It is a good idea and all, at the same time, I kind of feel bad.” Sweetie Belle said looking at the ground with a frown.
Applebloom lifted Sweetie Belle's head up, “Well, ah know how ya feel. But, if we don't use this hut, nopony will.”
Scootaloo wasn't there the whole time, she wandered off and went deeper into the forest. She saw a cyan pony sitting outside, roasting marshmallows. She went to have a closer look, it was Rainbow Dash! “Sis?” Scootaloo asked softly. Rainbow Dash turned her head behind to see who was calling her.
“Oh hey, kiddo.” Rainbow Dash said joyfully waving the marshmallow stick up in the air, “Care to join me for some marshmallows?”
Scootaloo walked to the side of Rainbow Dash and sat on the log. She grabbed a stick and punched in a marshmallow and begins roasting it. “So... What are ya doing?” Rainbow Dash asked, turning the stick.
“Nothing much. Just exploring Zecora's hut, I guess.” Scootaloo replied.
“Zecora moved, if you don't know.” Rainbow Dash ate a marshmallow while it is still hot and roasted. “It burns! Hot! So hot!” Rainbow Dash quickly stood up and flew up into the air to find a stream of river an quickly dashed towards the river and threw herself in it literally. Scootaloo laughed the whole time, causing her marshmallow to fall onto her hair.
Rainbow Dash jumped out of the water, and the first thing she see was Scootaloo laughing. “Hahaha! Not funny.” Rainbow Dash walked back to the log, and saw a melted marshmallow on Scootaloo's hair. She giggled a bit, trying to keep it in, so Scootaloo could not figure out what is on her head. “Pfftttt....! Hehe....” Rainbow Dash giggled as she closed her mouth with her hooves. She cleared her throat and begin talking normally once again.
“Where is Applebloom and Sweetie Belle? Aren't they suppose to be with you or something?” Rainbow dash asked, trying to sound as normal as possible, an without giggling this time.
Scootaloo stopped laughing, and sat down straight. “Well, their here alright. Except, I think they are still checking out Zecora's hut. I'm not really sure what they are doing right now.” Scootaloo stood up, walking away slowly and stopped at a nearby bush. “I'm going to check on them now. See ya later in the afternoon.” She waved goodbye to her sister and walked away, disappearing into the forest.
She manage to find her way through the forest and back to Zecora's hut. “What are you doing?” Scootaloo asked as she tilted her head.
“We will now take over this hut!” Applebloom said, giving out an out of tune evil laugh.
“Me and Applebloom agreed to make this hut into some sort of camping area for us crusaders, even though we had our cutie marks already, and our sisters and friends.” Sweetie Belle said, giving out a huge smile.
“That's awesome!”
Applebloom walked inside the hut. “We need something to patch up some of these holes, and maybe some new floorings too.”
“We can do that.” Scootaloo said. “How about the walls?”
“We're keeping the walls.” Applebloom said as she looked around the hut, in case anything else needs renovating. “Okay. I think that is all we need. Some new floorings, and maybe some kind of wall that match this one. And maybe we could make some minor adjustments too.”
“What kind of minor adjustment?” Sweetie Belle asked.
“We could add a fireplace out here, and a stump right there,” Applebloom said, pointing to certain areas outside the door. “And for the inside, we could maybe make a cabinet here and there, and a closet there, in case Rarity brought a bunch load of dresses.”
Sweetie Belle could just imagine Rarity doing that if they ever go camping here. “When are we going to renovate?”
“Maybe around next few weeks. Ah'm kinda busy bucking apples.”
“And I'm busy being lazy.” Scootaloo added.
Applebloom and Sweetie Belle stared at Scootaloo. “What?” Scootaloo said, shrugging.
“Ya and yer sister are the same.” Applebloom said with a smile. “No wonder you and Rainbow Dash is so alike.” Sweetie Belle added in.
Scootaloo did not understand a single word they said, so she just went along with it.
“Scootaloo, have you told Applebloom and Sweetie Belle about that secret you've been keeping from them?” Rainbow Dash asked, as she chow down onto her pancake.
Scootaloo shook her head, “No, not yet. I just haven't found the right time to tell them yet.”
Rainbow Dash sighed. “You got plenty of time, and sooner or later, they'll find out. I think it is best for you to tell them now. But, the choice is up to you.” Rainbow Dash patted Scootaloo on the shoulder, and gave her a comforting smile.
“I guess you're right. It's now or never, and if I keep holding it back, I think they'll get mad at me for not telling them earlier.” Rainbow Dash nodded, and Scootaloo ate her last pancake, and put the dishes in the sink, and left the house.
“Okay, Scootaloo. You're going to tell them the secret, and you are going to tell them today! Not tomorrow, not on Monday, but today!” Scootaloo thought to herself as she walked to Sweet Apple Acres.
Applebloom was walking out of the barn, when she spotted Scootaloo. “Hey Scootaloo. Whatcha doing?”
“There is something I need to tell you and Sweetie Belle, but first of all, let's go get Sweetie Belle.” Scootaloo said, more in a rushing kind of tone.
Applebloom just tagged along, and they went to the boutique to pick Sweetie Belle up. They both rang the doorbell, and Sweetie Belle opened the door. “I don't know why Rarity installed this doorbell, but what's up?”
“Follow me to the clubhouse.” Scootaloo replied quickly, and the three of them went to the clubhouse together. They reached the clubhouse, and they gathered near the pond.
“There is this one secret I have been keeping for quite some time now. But I just want to surprise you both.” Scootaloo said, giving a smile.
“Oh! A surprise?!” Pinkie Pie came out of nowhere and smacked Applebloom on the face with her hoof by accident and flinged Sweetie Belle's horn by accident too. “Ops! Sorry, are you okay?” Pinkie Pie apologized to the two ponies.
“Y-yeah...” Sweetie Belle answered as she rubbed her horn. “Boy, did that hurt!”
“Ow, ah think ya broke mah nose.” Applebloom said as she rubbed her nose.
Scootaloo looked over at Pinkie Pie, who is still helping out Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. “Nice entrance there, Pinkie.”
“Haha! Thanks! I tend to do that!” Pinkie replied with a giggle.
Scootaloo rolled her eyes. She was just being sarcastic. She walked over to Applebloom, and help her out.
Few minutes later, after that unexpected accident, the three of them, including Pinkie Pie, sat on a log, as Scootaloo gave out a speech, which is unrelated to anything that Pinkie is doing!
“Okay, so I have been keeping this little secret, and I wanted to surprise the two of you, and I don't know how to tell you this, because I think you both might be mad at me for not telling you both earlier and stuff.” Scootaloo said.
Applebloom looked at Scootaloo with a smile, “Why do ya think we'd be mad at ya?”
“Let me finish!” Scootaloo complained.
“Okay...” Applebloom kept quiet.
“So, I hope the two of you will not get mad at me for not telling you guys about this earlier.” Scootaloo took a deep breath, “I can fly!”
Applebloom and Sweetie Belle's jaw fell right open, “But I thought the doctor said...” Sweetie Belle said, as her voice faded.
“The doctor said there was a slight chance the muscle might heal, and it did.” Scootaloo said happily.
“Ah'm so happy fer ya!” Applebloom cheered.
Sweetie Belle nodded in agreement. “Have you learned how to fly yet?” Sweetie Belle questioned.
“Well, I know how to flutter, but I haven't learn those awesome stunts Rainbow Dash usually do yet.” Scootaloo said, kinda disappointed with the stunts thing.
Pinkie Pie put her hooves around the three ponies, “This calls for a celebration! Because everypony is happy, and that makes me happy, and when I'm happy, I make cakes and muffins and cupcakes and all those hyper sweetness things!”
Scootaloo doesn't understand a word Pinkie said, and just stare at Pinkie in confusion.
Pinkie knew everything that is happening, so she suddenly popped out her party cannon, and...
BOOM! Party, streamers, balloons, banners, Rainbow Dash, Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Lyra, Bon-Bon, Dr.Whooves, Derpy, Hoity Toity, Photo Finish, Sapphire Shores, Coco Pommel, Suri Polomare, an all other ponies that you can think of!
“Wait... Did Pinkie just stuff the ponies into that cannon?” Scootaloo asked in shock.
“Ah don't even know anymore.” Applebloom replied.
The three crusaders just stared in shock as Pinkie blew up the cannon, and send ponies flying around everywhere, with party streamers and candies and party stuff.
