Scootaloo's new life went off with a bang. Everyday her two mothers would treat her to something special. When meeting with Mrs. Cheerliee, the two mares updated Scootaloos file with their signatures indicating they are Scootaloo's mothers. They also informed her that they were taking Scootaloo to Canterlot to meet her new relatives as a family vacation, which Cheerliee allowed. During the week, Rarity and Sweetie Belle worked together to make Scootaloo a blanket with, Twilight’s,Rainbow's, and Scootaloo’s own cutie mark on it. Scootaloo fell in love with the blanket thanking both Rarity and Sweetie belle for making it.
Now the morning came by and at the library, Rainbow and Twilight were sleeping on their cloud bed, with Scootaloo in her own bed. Rainbow began to wake up and saw the eyes of her loving alicorn wife.
"Hey, how’d you sleep, Twi?" Rainbow asked as she gave Twilight a sweet kiss on the lips.
"I slept well honey. Ever since I got rid of my old bed and got this comfy cloud bed, I been getting the best sleep ever!" Twilight replied.
Twilight and Rainbow both shared a giggle and proceeded to get out of bed, Twilight hugged Rainbow. The lavender alicorn had to make sure everything was ready for today. Today, she, Rainbow, and Scootaloo were heading to Canterlot to meet Twilight's family. However, her brother was going to be arriving later due to interviews with new recruits, giving temporary charge to somepony else.
"Rainbow, I'm gonna go make us coffee, do you think you can wake up our little princess?" Twilight asked.
"Sure Twi."
Twilight then proceeded to go down stairs and Rainbow headed across the hall to Scootaloos bedroom. As she entered she saw Scootaloo stirring in her sleep, “Aw, our daughter is dreaming, that's so cute.” Rainbow thought. As she walked up to Scootaloo, she began tapping her daughter’s shoulder gently with her hoof.
"Hey, sunshine, wakey wakey." Rainbow cooed. Scootaloo then began to wake up and was greeted by her rainbow maned mother. She began to yawn.
"Morning mom." Scootaloo greeted as she was waking up.
"You know what we are doing today don't you?"
"Uh....."
"We are going on our family vacation to meet Twilight's family, which is now your family."
"Oh.... I can't wait!"
As Scootaloo hopped out of bed, she and Rainbow proceeded to go downstairs, on the way down, they met up with Spike. Since the announcement that Twilight and Rainbow became Scootaloo’s mothers, Spike became a brother-figure to the orange filly. He hugged Scoots and said good morning to her. As they proceeded to the kitchen, they saw Twilight who had coffee mugs on the table. "I see you slept well sweetie pumpkin." Twilight cooed.
"Yea. I slept fine. So how did you sleep."
"I slept fine too."
As the group sat by the table, Twilight and Rainbow began to drink their morning coffee and talk to Scootaloo. They started to explain that they all are going to leave for Canterlot soon and that Cadence is going to be there, while Shining Armor would arrive late due to interviews and will be giving temporary charge to somepony while he's away. Rainbow even said that she was willing to share her story on how she and Twilight became a couple and got married. Which Twilight knew for a fact, caused tears to be shed, particularly when she told Dash’s parents her side of the story. The group then began to chow down on some breakfast.
After breakfast the group began to pack their bags and Rainbow even decided to bring her Daring Do book, that A.K. Yearling/Daring Do had sent her as thanks for the help during her adventure. With everything packed, they began to head down to the train station. However what surprised Twilight most was that everytime she takes the train, they give her the Royalty Discount which means she and her family get to pay less. Upon paying for the tickets and boarding the Train, Twilight noticed Scootaloo was sleepy.
"Sweetie, if you want to rest, you can. You can sleep on me or Rainbow." Twilight informed her softly. Scootaloo then fell asleep on her Alicorn mothers lap. Rainbow looked at Twilight with a smile.
"We made the right decision signing that paper." Rainbow said with glee.
"We sure did."
Twilight and Rainbow both decided that to pass the time, they would look at their scrapbook of the times they spent together, as friends, to marefriends and as a married couple. The mares had found it so enjoyable to revisit the past.
Canterlot
At the Canterlot Train station, the three ponies waited. Two of them were waiting for their daughter to come with her wife and kid, while the other mare was filed with excitement, and looked like she was spending too much time partying with Pinkie
"Cadence, where is Shining?" asked Night Light.
"He's in The Crystal Empire still, he's finishing up the interviews and giving temporary charge to another captain while he's here." Cadence assured as she tried to control herself.
"Well, I’m so happy we get to meet Twilight and her wife's daughter. I'm so glad she is with somepony she loves."
As they talked the train appeared and stopped at the station. As it came to a stop, Twilight, Rainbow, and Scootaloo got off the train. Twilight velvet came to her daughter and hugged her, even her dad did the same thing. Cadence however did their usual thing from when she used to foalsit Twilight.
"How's it going Honey?" Asked Velvet
"It's going good mom." Assured Twilight
"So who's the orange filly?"
"Oh, That's our daughter. Rainbow and I are her mothers."
Cadence then recognized the filly. She remembered back to that day at the wedding. The filly was her flower filly along with her friends.
"So, your Scootaloo. You might remember me, from the wedding." Cadence informed.
"Of course I do. Man that wedding was messed up when the imposter was there. Boy that queen got exterminated." Scootaloo Recalled.
Everypony then started laughing at the joke Scootaloo made about the changeling queen. Rainbow then saw Twilight Velvet and Night Light.
"It's nice to see you again!" greeted Rainbow Dash.
"Nice to see you again Mrs. Dash, hows my daughter been treating you?" Twilight Velvet asked.
"Heh heh heh. She been treating me with lot's of love. Man I love her."
The group then decided to head to the house. As they headed there, Twilight and Rainbow both explained how Scootaloo became their daughter. Everypony was speechless to learn Scootaloo is the last remainder of her family. Cadence however was shocked that Scootaloo was the sister of Gray Cloud. As they arrived at the house Rainbow said she will share her story of how she got together with Twilight. Twilight decided to show Rainbow her old bedroom. As both mares and Scootaloo entered Twilight's bedroom, Rainbow realized that Twilight was right when she said her life was mostly involving books. She noticed Twilight's pictures when she was little.
"Aw, my wife looked so cute when she was a filly." Rainbow squeezed.
"What can I say." Twilight giggled.
Then something caught dashes eye. On Twilights bedroom wall, was a paper framed into a picture frame. Rainbow was shocked to see what it was. "Twi, Is this...?"
"My certificate when I entered Celestia's school. If it wasn't for your sonic rainboom, I wouldn't be where I am today."
Rainbow came to Twilight side, kissed her, and begun to whisper in her ear. "I love you very much Twi, you mean the world to me. Besides, I'm glad that my Rainboom helped you pass your exam."
Twilight hugged Rainbow, and gave her a kiss. Scootaloo was smiling at the sight of her two mothers love for each other. Twilight then looked at both of them
"Tell you what, when we have time, how about I take you two to my old dormitory when I was in Celestia’s school. Would you like that Rainbow?" Twilight asked.
"Of course Twi."
Just then, the door to Twilight's room opened, it was Shining Armor. Twilight ran and gave her brother a hug. "Twily! I see that you’ve been doing fine since you married Rainbow."
"I couldn't ask for more really."
"Who's the filly?"
"She's Scootaloo, She is our daughter!"
Shining Armor then listened to what happen to Scootaloo's parents. However the group then proceeded downstairs. It was time for Rainbow to tell her story. As they reached the table, Velvet, gave everyone coffee and Scootaloo some hot Chocolate.
"So, Rainbow, mind telling us your story?"
"Oh. but I must warned you, It may be touching." Rainbow boasted.
The group then turned to Rainbow and she then began.
“Let me start before I met Twilight. Basically, throughout my life, I was a fillyfooler. Everyone knew it too because I only was interested in mares. My friend, Fluttershy, knew I was. Almost every stallion in flight school made fun of me for it. However my friend, stood up for me and showed them no mercy. Few years later, I was dating another another mare, but we eventually broke up, due to my ranting of becoming a wonderbolt. It led me to depression."
The family felt touched at what Rainbow dealt with in the past. Rainbow then continued
"Years later, I started to live in Ponyville. Reason being, Shy decided to lived there. I lived with her until i had enough money to build my own place to call home. After a few more years, came the the summer sun celebration, That day, I met Twilight, well you can say I crashed into her knocking her into mud by accident. Anyway when I laid eyes on her, my heart nearly stopped. I felt nervous at first when I met her. However due to fear, I had to hide the fact of my crush on her at the time. as the time went on and Twilight was living in Ponyville, my crush on her kept intensifying. Then, that day came."
"What.... what happened?" Velvet said holding her emotion.
"I decided to tell her. So, I went up to the library, I talked to Twilight privately, and told her about my crush on her. She called me weird and turned me down. I felt my heart break. I said to her, "H....how could you Twi you.....you-." I ran out of the library and slammed the door shut. I was outside, crying, crying my head off. My heart was shattered that day."
Cadence then had a tear in her eye hearing what happened. Twilight even remembered that dreadful day, She felt guilty when it happen. Scootaloo was tearing up at the story.
"I was crying so badly that I gave up and decided to disappear, leave town. I made myself believe miracles never happen. However, As i was about to disappear I heard sobbing. I turned and saw Twilight. Twilight came to me. She saw the tears in my eyes. She really felt guilty for breaking my heart.
She led me to the library, and bought me to her bedroom. She felt so sorry she decided to hug me until I stopped crying. She kept saying to me, "Please don't cry Rainbow. Please, I...I didn't mean to break your heart." She was shedding tears for what she did and how she made me feel. She felt like she broke my hopes, my heart, and our friendship. I then, confessed to Twilight that I'm a fillyfooler. She was crying really badly I was as well, not only due to the pain she caused earlier, but how it was hurting her."
Now shining had tears in his eyes. It was really touching him.
" We were crying together for a while. Twilight felt so much pain, She never wanted to have this happen again. When we calmed down, Twilight gave me a kiss. She felt so sorry for causing this, she decided to take me on dates. She felt like she needed to do something to cheer me up after that dreadful heartbreaking day. We went on many dates, Twilight hoping it would make me feel better. Many dates later, me and her fell in love. We became marefriends. She admitted she never felt this way with a mare, but she admitted that she started to have feelings and started to love me after the incident, but she also promised to do this to make me feel better. She invited me to her place for a sleepover, She took me to see movies, heck she even helped me buy my own set of daring do books. But one day, we hit a snag."
"Wh....what happened." Velvet asked in sadness.
"I got in a bad flight accident. Luckily it wasn't that terrible. However, my wings were injured for 4 weeks. I had to remain hospitalized during that time. Twi got word from a messenger at my request and boy, was she hurt. She was crying as soon as she heard what happened. She even thought I would never be able to fly again, and that I'd never become a wonderbolt. She stayed by my side in the hospital at for as long as possible. She even brought me our scrapbook, which we had filled with the times we spent together to cheer me up.
A month after that, We were spending more time together. I took her to see sad romance movies. She cried and I had my wing over her for the whole movie cheering her up. We did many things together. But, destiny came, we were so close, that I made my decision. I remember it was days after she became a princess after finishing Starswirl’s spell. I rushed over to a jewelry store and bought something she loved. I sent her a letter stating to meet me in the meadow. When she came, I showed her the hoof ring and asked her if she would marry me. Her answer, changed my life. I knew she was the right mare.
Our friend, Pinkie said we make a good couple after deciding to get married. As a result, I felt that if I became a wonderbolt, I would be away from my love of my life a lot. So, I went up to Spitfire, I told her that I felt that I needed to resign from the academy, and be with my wife. She to felt that it was the right thing to do, or at least the loyal thing. I then talked to my boss for the weather patrol, I told her that i'm retiring to spend time with my wife and getting a new job so i can always be there for her.
Days later, I sold my house, and moved in with Twilight. The following day, I sent a letter to Celestia stating that since Twilight is a princess, I asked her if I could be her first royal guard, even though I'm married to her. She replied back and stated I could. She then had the lavender armor custom made, with Twilight's cutie mark on it. So, in the end, Twi and I decided to run the library together. She was glad I chose my path to be by her side. I knew it was the right decision."
Everypony at the table felt emotional over Rainbow’s story. Twilight was elated to see that Rainbow remembered every detail. Cadence was shedding tears on how beautiful this was, along with Shining Armor was shedding tears. Scootaloo thought it was beautiful.
"So, that is why I don't see your cloudhouse anymore?" Scootaloo asked.
"That's right! I moved into Twilights after packing everything up."
Twilight unfolded a wing and pulled Rainbow close to her side, then began to nuzzle her wife. She felt so much love for Rainbow they vowed to stay together forever. She remembered Celestia saying that if Twilight has to live enteraly, she will cast the eternal life spell on Rainbow so she could remain by Twilight's side. As they calmed down they began to talk. After a while Scootaloo perched up
"Are we gonna mention the incident at the party?” Scootaloo pondered.
The family was baffled. "What incident?"
Twilight then sighed. Scootaloo wanted them to know what happened. "At the party at sugarcube corner, where we were being congratulated on becoming Scootaloos' mothers. At the party, a filly started picking on our daughter and called us out. Luckily Scootaloo, knew the law, and said she will be counted as a juvenile delinquent if she does something in front of witnesses. She then started punching our daughter. Luckily she got busted her father and I told him I'm pressing charges. Then this happened."
"What happened? NO YOU CAN"T BE SERIOUS?!" Shining was outraged when he saw the picture of Twilight’s bruise. “Why did you bring that?”
"Well since I'm a princess,” Twi ignored her brother’s question. “she punched me very hard. Luckily Scootaloo somehow knew that if you assault royalty, you be in prison for 9 years. After she was taken away, Scootaloo got the scale of justice as a cutie mark."
Shining gasped at this. His niece is a mare with the law.
"So during the trial, we had a lot of evidence against her, and lots of testimonies against her. In the end Diamond Tiara was found guilty for juvenile delinquency and assault on royalty. she is in Canterlot Juvenile Hall."
Twilight's family and Cadence were glad the filly that did this was given a guilty verdict. However they were shocked that Scootaloo managed to get a Law Cutie Mark. Shining even found it amazing that scootaloo knew the laws really well, even though she is a school filly. The family decided to go to a place where Twilght used to enjoy going to when she was young, Donut Joe’s Shop.
Joe's shop
The family walked through the streets of Canterlot. Rainbow was wearing her lavender armor and kept by Twilights' side. Shining marveled at the fact that he had a Niece. As they approached the shop, they were greeted by the owner, whom recognized the family. They were usual customers that occasionally visited in the past.
"Long time no see." donut joe greeted.
"It nice to see you again." Twilight greeted.
"Ah it's Twilight Sparkle, how you been?"
"Terrific, I'm married to this mare right here. Her name is Rainbow Dash."
"Ah so that's what happened that day, I'm happy for you Twilight. Who's the filly with the scale of justice cutie mark?"
"That's our daughter, Scootaloo. We adopted her after finding out that she was an orphan. It's kinda a long story"
After meeting Donut Joe, The group ordered their donuts and their friend gladly gave Scootaloo a bonus treat. Scootaloo had never had this much fun. She knew her birth parents and sister were watching over her since they met terrible fates. Twilight then told her family she was taking Rainbow and Scootaloo to see her dormitory when she was in Celestia’s school.
At the Castle, Twilight told Celestia that she was going to show Rainbow and Scootaloo her dormitory. Celestia was glad to let them see where she stayed. She stated that the room was now reserved to Twilight only when she stays in Canterlot. As they entered Twilight’s dormitory, Rainbow noticed that her dormitory was very similar to the library. Twilight then shared her memories of being in Celestia's School. At the end the decided to head back to Twilight’s parents house.
As the arrived back at the house, dinner was ready. Scootaloo was excited that she had a new family and new relatives. She then realized that she might be getting called back to the Dream Void during her sleep, to talk to her biological family. After dinner, Rainbow and Twilight decided to take a shower. After their shower, Scootaloo then took hers and Twilight helped dry her off. They all decided to remain in Twilight's room. As the were in Twilight's room, they began to plan what they were going to do tomorrow. Twilight even hit the idea, to let Scootaloo bond with Cadence and Shining. When the time came, for them to hit the hay, Twilight used her magic to make her bed bigger to fit the three of them. After saying their goodnights, they then hit the the sack and drifted to sleep. The next day, will give Scootaloo the time to get to know some of her new relatives.
