Chapter 5

"What do you think we should try this time?" Sweetie Belle asked her two fellow crusaders.

It had been about a month and a half since the accident and the crusades had started up again.

"I don't know. You got any ideas, Scoot?" replied Apple Bloom.

"I don't know, how bout we just talk." Scoot responded.

"Girls, can I tell you something?" Apple Bloom asked the other crusaders.

"Sure, Apple Bloom" Sweetie replied.

"What's on your mind?" Scoot added.

"Well..." Apple Bloom started, "I wish I could run again. I miss running around with you two."


Later that day after Apple Bloom went back home, Sweetie and Scoot talked about what Apple Bloom told them.

"I really wish there was a way to make it so she could walk again." Sweetie sighed.

"Me too." added her orange pegasus friend.

After a moment an idea popped into Scoot's head.

"I know! Maybe we could find a way!" exclaimed the excited pegasus.

"Yeah!" agreed Sweetie Belle.

They decided to go to the library that weekend while the Apple family was out of town to visit Appleoosa to do research.

"Hey Scoot, did you find anything yet?" asked Sweetie.

"No, what about you?" replied Scoot.

"No, nothing yet... wait! Here's something!" exclaimed Sweetie.

She found an article in a magazine about a very new surgery done by a team of specialists in Canterlot.

"Hey Twilight, have you heard about this?" Sweetie called the purple unicorn.


It didn't take long for all of Twilight's friends to hear about the recent discovery. They had decided it should be the CMC to tell Apple Bloom about the great news at the next CMC sleepover.

"Apple Bloom, we have some great news to tell you!" Scootaloo exclaimed.

"What?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Remember how you said you wished you could run again?" Sweetie explained.

"Yeah..." Apple Bloom replied.

"What would you say if we said we found a way?" Scoot asked.

"I'd say you're the best friends ever." replied Apple Bloom, "Why you ask?"

"Apple Bloom, we found a way." Sweetie said happily.

"You're the best friends EVER!" Apple Bloom cheered as she hugged her two friends
