//------------------------------// // The Cliff // Story: Worthless Life // by mlplover17 //------------------------------// Rainbow and Twilight flew faster. They spotted Scootaloo on the cliff, where Twilight almost fell when they had to stop Nightmare Moon. They watched her stand up. They flew down to her. She was at the edge of the cliff. Rainbow's heart was beating as fast as lightning. This was one of the few times in her life, she was actually terrified. "There's no point in living anymore." Scootaloo said to herself as she stood on the edge of the cliff. This was it. She got ready to jumped. "SCOOTALOO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Dash screamed, about to cry. She had an idea of what her sister was about to do. "Rainbow Dash. I just want you to know that I'll always love you. Goodbye." Dash's heart stopped at these words. "SCOOTALOO DONT!" It was too late. Scootaloo had jumped. She hit a few rocks and you could hear screams. Rainbow was shocked, crying. She came back to reality and Rainbow quickly shot down after her, flapping her wings as fast as she could. "RAINBOW!" Twilight screamed after her. She was going to fly after her, but fought otherwise. She knew Rainbow could do it. Dash was crying. Her vision was clouded a bit. All she could think was "Save your daughter! Save your daughter!" She was close by Scootaloo, who had her eyes closed. She felt like her heart was going to explode. She reached down with her hooves, as far as they would go, and she finally grabbed hold of Scootaloo's back. She scooped up Scootaloo and shot up the cliff. She hugged her unconscious daughter tightly, and sobbed loudly. She hit a few sharp rocks, so she was bleeding on her forehead, front right hoof, and her back. Her head was bleeding badly. "Rainbow D.... Dash." a weak Scootaloo managed to get out. "Oh. Scootaloo. I'm so sorry!" she said, sobbing. Scootaloo looked up at her mother, with misty eyes. "No. I'm sorry." Scoots said softly. She then let her eyes close. Dash shot strait up and flew to the hospital. Twilight followed. When she got there, she looked around for some pony, holding Scootaloo close to her. She didn't see any pony at the front desk, so she did the only thing she could: scream for help. "SOMEPONY! HELP ME! PLEASE!" she screamed, crying. Nurse Redheart came out and put Scootaloo on a stretcher. Nurse Red Heart took Scootaloo into a room. She got hooked to wires, and had an oxygen mask put on her muzzle. "Miss Dash. I need you to leave the room." "No! No! Scootaloo!" Twilight tried to pull Rainbow back. Dash put up a bit of a fight. Twilight eventually used her magic and lifting into the waiting room. She kept her glow around Dash, because she knew she would try to go back. They sat in the waiting room. Dash was going insane. She kept saying why over and over again. Twilight tried to talk to her, but she was zoned out. She slapped her across the face and she came back to reality. "What caused Scootaloo to do that?" Twilight asked. "Its all my fault!" "How is it your fault Rainbow?" "She was acting strange, but she wouldnt tell me." "Thats not your fault. Has she been stressed or anything?" "I think I know why now." she said angrily. Twilight let Rainbow go. She remembered something Scootaloo only talked about once or twice, being bullied. She was enraged. She wasn't angry. She was furious. She felt like her insides were now on fire. She flew towards Filthy Rich's house. Twilight stayed at the hospital. She knocked on the door loudly. "Hello Rainbow Dash." "WHERS YOUR FUCKING DAUGHTER?!" Rainbow shouted angrily. She didn't regret it. "Excuse me?" "I NEED TO SEE YOUR DAUGHTER!" "What did she do?" "SHE ALMOST GOT MY DAUGHTER KILLED! THATS WHAT SHE DID! I KNOW SHE BULLIES HER! I MAY NOT'VE NOTICED IT BEFORE, BUT I DO NOW!" "Diamond Tiara. Get down here now!" "Yes Daddy?" Diamond Tiara asked innocently. "Have you been bullying Scootaloo?" "Moi? Never!" she lied. "YOU DID! WHEN WOULD I LIE LIKE THIS! IM FREAKING SCREAMING! WHEN HAVE I LIED WHILE SCREAMING! USUALLY WHEN I SCREAM IM PISSED!" "Dont scream at my daughter!" Filthy Rich said seriously. "Have you been bullying Scootaloo?" Filthy Rich asked his daughter, firmly. "Maybe." "DIAMOND TIARA! GO TO YOUR ROOM NOW!" Rich screamed. Diamond Tiara screamed, and ran upstairs, slamming her door shut. "I'm very sorry." Filthy Rich said. Dash knew he meant it. "I gotta go." Dash said, flying to the hospital. When she was there, she saw Scootaloo breathing lightly, her head wrapped in a bandage. Her front hoof and her back had bandaids on them. She stroked Scootaloo's mane, and cried. Twilight walked into the room.
