It has been over three weeks since the accident and Rainbow had been checked out from the hospital. Mainly cause neither Twilight or Rainbow could've afforded the hospital bill if she had stayed any longer. 


The outer door at the tree house opens and a orange pegasi filly walks in. She looks around the main room and notice it's empty. "Twilight, are you home?"
A voice is heard from the kitchen. "I'm in the kitchen Scootaloo."
Scootaloo walks out in the kitchen and see's the lavender unicorn standing there preparing some food.
Twilight smiles when she see's the little filly. She hugs her and asks. "So, how was school today?"
The filly returns the hug. "Well, could have been better if Diamond Tiara hadn't been bugging me all the time." She frowns a little.
Twilight looks at her. "Just ignore what she says Scootaloo. That she's bullying other ponies will come back and bite her in the flank on day." She smiles at the filly.
The filly smiles back at her.
She then turns towards the oven. "What's for dinner today?"
The mare shakes her head. "Foals, always thinking of food." She chuckles a little.
Scootaloo frowns a little. "Hey, i don't always think of food! I think of how to get my cutie mark too!"
Twilight chuckles and nuzzles her mane. "I know. And it's apple pie with cream for dinner today. Just waiting for Spike to come back home from the shop with the final ingredients."
The filly smiles and jumps up. "Awesome! I love that! I will just go up to my room and drop of my bag."
Twilight gives her a stern look. "And do your homework to i suppose?" 
Scootaloo sighs. "Do i have to?"
The mare nods. "That, or no dinner."
The filly sighs. "Fine." She then walks up to her room.

On her way she see's that the door into Twilight's and Rainbow's bedroom is slightly opened. She decides to take an peek since she hasn't been in there that many times. 
She see's Rainbow Dash sitting at the window staring out on the sky.
She carefully walks up to her and sits down besides her. She looks up at her. "Hi there sis."
Rainbow doesn't even seem to notice her. She just keeps staring out on the sky.
The little filly sighs. "You aren't the only one who wishes to be able to fly sis."
She then stands up and walk over to the door. She turns her head and looks a Rainbow. "Just so you know."
She walks out of the room and to her own bedroom.

When she enters the room she throws her bag bag in a corner and throw herself onto her bed. She buries her head in the pillow and starts to cry.

After a minute or so the door slowly opens. The filly doesn't hear it over her own crying. "Squirt?"
Scotaloo's ears points straight up when she recognize the voice. She slowly tuns her head around and looks at the pony standing in the doorway. "R-rainbow?"

The cyan pegasus walks up to the bed and lays down beside the crying filly. She drapes one of her wings around her and nuzzled her head. "It's okay scoots. Everything will be alright"
