//------------------------------// // Best Day Ever! part 2 // Story: My Little Scootaloo // by SolidFerret //------------------------------// Need to stop staying up late to finish these chapters. Next Chapter. After leaving Fluttershy's, Rainbow Dash carried Scootaloo on her back. She already knew her next stop before she even left for Fluttershy's. Going into town, everypony was going about there day. From buying food to working in their shop or vendor. Ponies began to look at Rainbow Dash with a surprised expression on their face. Usually, Rainbow would fawn over the attention she was getting, but with Scootaloo on her back she was instead feeling the a bit awkward. Most of the ponies probably had so many questions going through their minds. The usual 'How did she get that baby?' came to mind. But Dash was to busy in her thoughts to care about what they thought. After some time of walking through town, Rainbow Dash came upon the front door of Carousel Boutique. Scootaloo had crawled around her back, played with her wings and now was on top of Rainbow Dash's head. Knocking on the door with her hoof, Rainbow called out to the pony behind the door. "Oh Rarity. There is some pony I want to introduce you to." "Rainbow Dash, who could you possibly introduce me to that...could...?" Rarity's sentence came to a slow halt when she opened the door and saw an infant on Rainbow Dash's head. "Where... where did you get her?" Rarity was shocked. She never thought of Rainbow as a motherly figure. But here she was with a toddler on her head giggling and playing with her mane. "I found her last night in a box in a back alley in Cloudsdale." "Now who would do such a terrible thing?" "Her own mother was forced to abandon her." "That is terrible. That poor, poor mare." Rarity said. "She was lucky. Her baby nearly froze to death at night when I found her." "Oh I almost forgot, what is her name?" "Scootaloo." "Well Scootaloo" now addressing the baby. "Aren't you just the most adorable thing." Usually, Dash would roll her eyes at behavior like this. It was however, the fact that she was gonna have to get used to it now since it was her child. Walking in to the Boutique, Rainbow set Scootaloo on the ground. The little infant on the ground. Rarity already seemed to be planning to make her something. She made something for Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. "Oh Dash, you came at the wrong time. I have an order that I need to finish by today." "Oh sorry. I could come back." Rainbow apologized. "Oh nonsense. I was just having a short break with tea. Want some?" "No Thanks." Rarity tilted her head down towards Scootaloo and smiled. "Oh Rainbow she is soooo adorable." Rarity bent down (A/N Not over) to face Scootaloo. The toddler crawled over to the white unicorn mare. Rarity picked her up and cradled her in her hooves. "Oh she is just precious. Tell you what Dash, when I'm done with this order. I will stitch a blanket from the softest materials I can find for her." "Gee Rarity are you sure?" Rainbow was thinking that it may have been to much. "Nonsense. I did the same for Sweetie Belle and Applebloom when they were born." "Well if you insist." Dash finally agreed. "I would be glad to stitch something for this precious little thing." She snuggled her face into Scootaloo's cheek. The baby giggled on contact and her wings buzzed. "Well we better get going. Pinkie pie will surely want to meet her." "Well hopefully Pinkie won't be to... Pinkie." "I'm sure she'll be calm." Rarity could only give a look that said 'seriously?' "Maybe not." "Well see you later Rainbow." Scootaloo seemed to have hopped from Rarity's hooves and quickly scampered over to Dash. Using her teeth, she picked her up by the nape of her neck and placed her on her head again. "See ya around." Rarity stood there shocked. She couldn't believe that Scootaloo had returned to Rainbow Dash as if she had called her over. Rarity didn't believe that a baby could learn who to go to that fast. Stepping out of the boutique, Rainbow Dash quickly trotted over to Sugar Cube Corner. The walk wasn't to long since it was just around the corner. Rainbow Dash arrived there. As usual, Pinkie Pie was already bouncing around Rainbow. "HeyRainbowDashhowsitgoingwhatdoyouwant?" Pinkie stopped mid-air and slowly floated back to the ground with a look of shock on her face. By now, Dash had gotten used to shock from her friends. She really couldn't blame them. How often do friends show up with a baby that they found last night. "Can I, can I hold her?" Pinkie asked holding out her hooves. Rainbow took Scootaloo off her head and gave her to Pinkie to play with. Dash was very surprised. Pinkie isn't usually this calm and collective. Instead the bounce pink mare was making funny faces towards Scootaloo in order to get the baby to laugh. "OH MY GOSH! She is ADORABLE! What's her name?" "Scootaloo." "Where did you get her?" Rainbow Dash told her the story, On how when she found her abandoned on a cold night. By the end of the story Pinkie Pie was in tears. "Oh how could that happen to anypony?" She asked it tears. She held Scootaloo while bawling her eyes out at the story. Scootaloo only seemed to hug her. After Pinkie Pie finished crying her eyes out, She played around with Scootaloo as if she hadn't broken down to begin with. The pink mare made funny faces. All the while Scootaloo was giggling at the funny pony. "Oh my gosh Rainbow Dash." Pinkie said to her with Scootaloo on top of her head. "We need to go to Sweet Apple Acres to see Applejack. I'm sure little Scootaloo wants to meet Applebloom. I hear Sweetie Belle is over there now." "Relax Pinkie. Applejack already knows. I needed to get things from her last night. Plus, I wanna go see Twilight first." "Okee dokie loki." Pinkie bounced Steeping out of Sugar Cube Corner, the trio trotted down to the library. Scootaloo kept trying to eat Pinkies mane believing that it was cotton candy. Reaching the Library, Rainbow leaned over close so her head was next to Pinkies'. Scootaloo stopped chewing on her mane and crawled over to Dash's head. Pinkie only giggled in a 'oh you' fashion. "Hey Twilight. Get out here you need to meet Scootaloo." Rainbow Dash called to her. "Rainbow who's Scootaloo?" Twilight asked as she opened the door. She got her answer when she opened the door and saw the infant on top of Dash's head playing with her mane. Twilight was lost for words. Her mouth hung open. She invited them in and asked Rainbow to tell her how she got Scootaloo. Spike came in and saw asked the same thing. Dash sat down and began to tell the story. After the story was over, Twilight was nearly in tears about how she found Scootaloo. "That's awful. I feel so sorry for that poor mare." Twilight said as she wiped a tear away. "Cheer up Twi. She wanted somepony to raise her and I found her on my own." Rainbow Dash said. "I guess your right. Anyways, I hear Sweetie Belle is having a play date with Apple Bloom." "Yeah. We came to see if you wanted to come with us?" "Sure why not." Twilight agreed. Pinkie sprung up excited and declared, "Well hurry up you two. I wanna go see the other babies too." Without answering, the two mare and the baby got up and walked out the library. Spike followed out after them wanting to tag along as well. {A/N} Screw that authors note box. Took me a few days to write this. so hopefully you guys enjoyed it. I do not own My Little Pony.
