Day 1...
It was early in the morning when Scootaloo called a Cutie Mark Meeting. She ran to the boutique to get Sweetiebelle, who was still sleeping at the time,. Scootaloo then ran back to Sweet Apple Acres with a tired white filly behind her to get Apple Bloom, who was doing her chores. The three little fillies ran to the clubhouse to see why Scootaloo called a meeting.
"This better be important cause Ah'm not done with all my chores," Apple Bloom said.
"Yeah and I'm really tired. I was helping Rarity all night, Yawn" Sweetiebelle yawned stretching her hooves in the air.
"It is really important! RainbowDash is... is... is...!" Scootaloo said.
"Yes, yes, yes?" Apple Bloom and Sweetiebelle said in union.
"SICK!" Scootaloo yelled.
There was a long silence between the fillies until Apple Bloom broke it.
"Ah'm out," Apple Bloom stood up and was about to leave but Scootaloo spoke.
"Why are you going!? This is an emergency! She has the flu!".
"Ah got the flu last week and ah just got some medicine, RainbowDash can do that too. Problem solved, now let me do my chores before Applejack gets mad with me,".
"But there is no more medicine! We have to go to Zecora's house and get some medicine. Hay, we might even get our cutie marks in helping sick ponies!".
Apple Bloom stopped and thought for a second. She really wanted her cutie mark and she would do anything to get it. But should she really skip her chores to get some medicine? After thinking of a solution, she finally had one.
"Ok fine, but after Ah do all my chores and Sweetiebelle gets her sleep so she won't be tired on the trip," Apple Bloom planned.
"Ok, but hurry!" Scootaloo said impatiently.
"There is no such thing as "hurry" when sleeping," Sweetiebelle said.

1 Hour Later...
"We're here! Scootaloo? Hello?" Sweetiebelle said.
Apple Bloom and Sweetiebelle walked inside the clubhouse only to see three packed bags, a book on how to be safe is the Everfree Forest, a first aid kit, and a purple tail behind the podium. They walked up to the tail and saw that Scootaloo was sleeping, muttering something about RainbowDash.
"Doesn't she have a home?" Apple Bloom asked.
"She must've packed everything for us and got tired," Sweetiebelle whispered.
"Welp, let's wake her up!" Apple Bloom said.
Apple Bloom was about to shake her awake when Sweetiebelle stopped her.
"What are you doing?!" Sweetiebelle said in a volume just above whispering.
"Ah'm waking her up! She wanted to go on the trip so ah'm goin' to wake her up so we can go," Apple Bloom said.
Sweetiebelle and Apple Bloom were arguing so much that they forgot to whisper. Scootaloo yawned and sat straight up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"Oh you guys are done? Then what are we waiting for, let's go!" Scootaloo picked up her book and bags and waited for her friends to get there bags too. The CMC headed towards the Everfree Forest. It was about late afternoon when they started their trip to Zecora's and it was getting dark, fast.
"Hurry it's getting dark! You never know what can attack you without you knowing," Scootaloo shuttered in fear.
"Oh stop bein' a chicken. Ah go in the Everfree Forest all the time and barely get attack by a creature," Apple Bloom said.
"Hey! I-I'm not a chicken, I'm just worried," Scootaloo said.
Apple Bloom rolled her eyes and continued on the trail. After a minute of random stuff, they all heard rustling in the bushes. Scootaloo jumped and hid behind Apple Bloom and Sweetiebelle. Sweetiebelle walked towards the bushes causing Scootaloo to freak out.
"What are you doing?! It says in my book not to go by mysterious noises!" Scootaloo whispered as loud as she can.
"If it was something bad, it would have already attacked us by now. I'm just going to do a quick peek," Sweetiebelle said.
Sweetiebelle split the bushes apart and saw a family of bunnies. She awed as the smallest nibbled on some cabbage. Scootaloo and Apple Bloom walked up to the bushes and awed as well.
"See? They're just a cute bunny family, not a mean ol' monster," Sweetiebelle said pointing to the bunnies.
Scootaloo sheepishly smile at herself for thinking it could have been something harmful. She took a step but felt something bite her on her back leg. She looked back but was soon being quickly pulled away from her friends.
"HELP!" Scootaloo yelled.
Her friends turned around and saw Scootaloo being dragged into the darkness as she yelled for help. They followed her cries for help but soon lost her. The creature was to fast for two little fillies.
"Scootaloo! Scootaloo, where are ya!" Apple Bloom yelled.
"What are we going to do!?" Sweetiebelle said holding back her tears.
"We're goin' to find her! If we get some help now, she might as well be eaten by then. Come on!".
After Apple Bloom spoke, she ran in a random direction hoping for her friend to be in the same direction. Sweetiebelle ran right behind, even more scared then Scootaloo listening to horror stories.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Meanwhile...
"Help!" Scootaloo was still crying for help, but soon gave up.
"Hey, what are you? And where are you taking me?" Scootaloo asked still scared out of her mind.
The creature looked back and growled for her to be quiet. While the creature was looking at Scootaloo, she could see two yellow glowing eyes looking at her. But only one was looking at her, the other one was in the opposite direction. This confused Scootaloo.
They finally arrived at their destination. The creature threw into a cage and locked her inside. Scootaloo groaned at the impact. She looked down at her right back leg and saw that the blood stopped. While Scootaloo was trying to get up, the creature was setting a campfire. Scootaloo was now lost in confusion. As the light shined on the beast, it showed a grey wolf-like pony with a yellow mane and tail. It also had some bubbles on it's flank, wings, and yellow cross-eyes. Scootaloo immediately knew who this was.
"Derpy?" Scootaloo asked.
"Yes, I am Derpy," the grey wolf said.
"B-But why did you d-drag me over here and throw me i-in a cage? And why are you a w-wolf?" Scootaloo stuttered with fear.
"I got bitten by a pony wolf and the reason I bit you and dragged you was because I had no control. Plus, you were the closest thing to bite," Derpy explained.
"But that still doesn't explain why I'm in a cage!" Scootaloo rattled the cage bars.
"Well since I bit you, you are cursed. I have to put you in a cage because once you transform, you will have no control until you relize what you have become. I also have to tell you something very important," Derpy got serious and stared into the filly's eyes.
"I've never seen her so serious before, she is usually goofy and clumsy. And how did she not trip while dragging me here? Scootaloo questioned herself.
"On the first day, you won't have control over your body until you do something so big, you relize you are a monster and after that you will have control again. On the second day, during the day you will keep some of your wolf characteristics, like craving for meat. On the third day, only during your transformed state, you will only be able to use wolf dialect, so that means you won't be able to speak ponish. On the fourth day, you will be alike a on and off switch. You can lose control any second. On the last day, you will go full wolf during the day and night. I am very sorry for biting you, I just don't know what went wrong," Derpy explained.
"I have three of questions. Is there a cure, what day are you on, and does it only happen on a full moon?" Scootaloo asked.
"I don't actually know if there is a cure, I'm on my third day, and no it doesn't only happen on a full moon, it happens when you first get bitten. Tomorrow I'm running away so I won't harm anypony,"
"Wait, if you're on your third day, how can I understand you?".
"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. You can know understand animals. Just like Fluttershy, except you got it from a curse,".
Scootaloo nodded and lied down. She poked her back leg and didn't feel any pain. Maybe you can heal faster when you're a pony wolf. Scootaloo smiled at the idea of healing super fast like a super hero. She was thinking about what her super hero name would be when she suddenly heard a growl coming from her stomach. Derpy's ears shot up from the sudden growl.
"Are you hungry? I brought some muffins!" Derpy smiled and handed Scootaloo a muffin.
"Thanks, I usually eat dinner right now," Scootaloo said stuffing a piece of a muffin in her mouth.
"No problem. Sorry I have to keep you here and make you miss your dinner. Its for your own and other ponies safety," Derpy said.
Scootaloo smiled at Derpy who was almost dome with her muffin. She was about to take another bite but she felt pain, pain all around her body. She dropped her muffin and groaned. She could feel her heart thumping in her head, over and over again. Derpy peered over and saw that Scootaloo was kicking and yelling for the pain to stop. She rushed over to the filly in pain, pulled her closer to the bars, and comforted her.
"W-What... is... happening!" Scootaloo yelled.
She looked down at her hooves and saw paws starting to form. After that the pain rushed to her muzzle, which was now getting longer with a tiny black nose at the end. Scootaloo banged on the metal floor with her paws and begged Derpy to make it stop.
"I'm sorry Scootaloo, but there's nothing I can do. Your transforming and it won't stop until it is done," Derpy said.
Scootaloo's tail merged together to make a purple wolf tail. Her fur grew longer and fluffier as her eyes narrowed and started to glow a purple tint. After the transformation, she let out a loud howl and began to growl. She started to gnaw on the metal bars. Derpy tried calming her down, but Scootaloo would just growl insanely. Since her wolf side was taking over, she did not know how to speak ponish. All she did was growl, bark, and howl. One thing that Derpy forgot was that pony wolves were really strong, and metal is just like thin plastic to them. Scootaloo placed her sharp canines on the metal bar and pulled. One it broke, she ran through the space and ran and fast as she could. Derpy tried following her, but the little wolf filly was too quick. After a while, Derpy gave up and sat back down, munching on another muffin.

Meanwhile by Apple Bloom and Sweetiebelle...
AWOOOOOOO
"Stop, did ya hear that?" Apple Bloom whispered.
"Yeah it sounded like a howl. Wait, what if it is the same creature that took Scootaloo!" Sweetiebelle said.
"Might be, come on lets go towards it," Apple Bloom suggested.
The two fillies walked towards the source of the howling, slowly, making sure that they didn't make a sound. They walked and walked, until they heard a growl a few feet behind them. They nervously turned around to see two pairs of purple glowing eyes looking straight at them. After a few seconds, it pounced on Sweetiebelle. She screamed and cried as the strange small creature lowered it's head to bite Sweetiebelle's neck. The creature was just Scootaloo losing control of her mind, but it was too dark for her friends to see that. Scootaloo glanced at her friends horrified face and stopped. Her eyes stopped glowing as she raised her head to see a white unicorn thinking that she was about to die.
"Sweeti-" Scootaloo whispered when she was interrupted by a buck to the face.
Scootaloo slid across the floor, rocks scrapping her side. She groaned and held her head, shortly after finding out that her nose was bleeding. She sniffed but soon after coughed out blood coming from her nose. She wiped the blood of her nose but it was still dripping out. Scootaloo's vision blurred as tears started to form. She looked up to see an angry yellow filly helping her friend up. The filly then started to walked towards Scootaloo.
"Ya don't ever, ever mess with my friends, and speaking of my friends, Where is Scootaloo!" Apple Bloom demanded.
"I-I am Scootaloo," Scootaloo said.
"No yer not! Where is she! Or Ah'll punch ya square in the eye, ya dumb tangerine!" Apple Bloom yelled.
"Please listen, I am her. I'm Scootaloo!" Scootaloo cried.
Apple Bloom couldn't take it anymore. They could be lost, Scootaloo is nowhere to be seen, and there was a wolf creature trying to hurt her friend.
She pulled her hoof back, and punched Scootaloo right in the eye, knocking her out. Apple Bloom told Sweetiebelle to follow her as they started to run out the forest for help. After about 5 minutes, Scootaloo woke up. She remembered everything vividly, replaying in her mind, ever single thing that Apple Bloom did to her. Tears started to flow down her cheeks, mixing with the blood form her nose.
She limped all the way to her house hoping that she would forget about it and have a nice slumber. But she was wrong. Scootaloo had dreams of her friends kicking her our of the CMC and RainbowDash locking her up in a cage for other ponies to stare and act like she was something that didn't belong in this world. After every nightmare, she would wake up, sweating. She finally decided to just stay awake and read some books to get her mind off of what happened.
