//------------------------------// // Through different eyes // Story: Daddy // by fluttercord4ever //------------------------------// Sweetheart was standing by the table with a look of guilt in my eyes. She doesn't want Scootaloo to get hurt, but this is the best thing to do for the both of them. "I hope you like your dinner Scootaloo, Sweetheart made it just for you." As Lighten walked in with Scootaloo behind him with an no emotion face, he gave Sweetheart an angry glare that made her body shiver in fear. She really doesn't want to do what Lighten order her in Scootaloo's room. Flash back Sweetheart's POV As I walked down they hall to the door were Scootaloo is in. I felt sorry for the little filly. Having to be ponynapped by Lighten and taken away from her loved ones. I wonder what are my family and friends are doing? Its been two weeks since Lighten ponynapped me and I told them I would be back from my business trip the day I was ponynapped. Are they looking for me? Do they even care that I was taken by a crazy stallion? Do they even love me? "Sweetheart, it'll be ok. We'll get out of this. Trust me, have you ever doubt me." I heard a voice from next to me. I turned around and saw Heart Blossom . "I trust you Blossom but what about our family and my friends?" I felt my sister put her hoof on my back. "They all are worried about you and asking anypony in our town if they seen you. You know if you told our parents were was your meeting was then you wouldn't be in this mess." I gave her an sad yet angry look. "I hate it when you do this to me. Well it least they are looking for me." I made a small smile. Heart Blossom did they same. "If only they can see me like you do. I would tell them were you are. Is Lighten still hurting you?" "Yeah I wish they saw you too. As for Lighten, he hasn't hurt me today since he ponynapped his daughter." "Wait, Lighten has a daughter! Man who in the right pony mind will do that with him. I mean he is rotten to the core." "He did have a wife, Fluttershy, I believe her name was. For what Lighten said that she was the one that put him in jail on the day when he found out that he was going to be a dad." I let out a sigh and continued talking. "But sometimes I don't know when Lighten is telling the truth or not." Blossom made a sad smile. "It makes me feel back for the mare. Had to be bound by that monster. I wouldn't balm her to call the cops. Just one question, Why would he take his daughter? Why not Fluttershy?" "That is two question Heart Blossom." She stuck her tongue out as I rolled my eyes. "He is using Scootaloo as bait to get to Fluttershy. That is all I know, yet I feel bad for Scootaloo, to be taking away from her friends and mother like that. I know how she feels and I want to protect her from Lighten with all coast." "But Sweetheart, what about you? What if you get hurt or even killed?" Heart Blossom said with sadness in her eyes. I turned to look at her. "At least I'll be able to be with you. I really don't fear death Blossom. I get to be with you and we could finally be twins again." "Sweetheart, we are always sister, we are always twins. I don't want you to died. Not now at least. I want you to live a happy life and get married and have a few fillies. I am sorry that you have to take on both of our lives." I smiled at my sister and hugged her. "You are always there for me when I am down or struggling. I am so happy I have a sister like you." She patted my back with her gentle hoof. "I am happy to have you as my little sis." We stayed there for a while until she pulled away. "Well I am going to see how our parents are doing. I'll be back soon." Blossom said placing a kiss on my forehead before she left. I smile to where Heart Blossom was once standing. "Thank you, Blossom." I opened the door to Scootaloo's room with a sad look in my eyes. "It is one thing to have me tied to a chair, but a filly is just to cruel." I thought to myself. I looked and saw Scootaloo in front of me. Looking at her it doesn't look like she is hurt. I was so glad that I hugged her and ran my hoof down her mane. "I am so happy you are not hurt." Scootaloo gave me an confused look as if she didn't believe that I said that. "Why would you say that? Do you work for Lighten Flame for my ponynapped?" I shook my head no to the filly's questions. "Then why are you here?" I pondered on the question then gave her a sad smile. "I was walking home when I saw Lighten escape from jail. I was going to run and call the cops, but Lighten saw me. He then ran up to me and knocked me out. The next thing I knew I was tied to a chair just like you were-. By the way how did you untied yourself?" I just realize that she tied to the chair. How in the hay would I little filly know how to untie herself? Scootaloo smiled at the me and she replied. "You'll be surprised how much you learn by watching adventure movies." I giggled as I rolled my eyes as I heard Scootaloo asked my another question. "How long have you been here since Lighten ponynapped you?" Soon after I answered her question. "It's been almost 2 weeks." Scootaloo's eyes widen in surprised. "And nopony report you missing?" I shrugged and said. "Ponyville isn't my real home town. I am originally from Fillydelphia." Scootaloo nodded. "So what is your name? You already know mine." I smiled at her. "She really is a nice pony. She most get it from Fluttershy." "My name is-" "SWEETHEART!" I was cut off when I heard Lighten screaming my name. I jumped and turned around when the door slammed opened, reviling a very angry Lighten. "I thought I told you to bring Scootaloo to the dinning room." I was shaking with fear. I didn't want Scootaloo get in trouble with Lighten as to why she untied. "I-I was S-Sir. I-I was just untying Scootaloo from the-" Slap I felt pain on my face when Lighten hit me in the face as I fell to the floor. I got up weakly yet I felt strong. I tried my hardest to keep my tears from falling down my cheeks. His eyes still burned with anger as he said. "You stupid mare. All I said was to bring Scootaloo to the dinning room, NOT to untied her. Can't you follow a simple order." Lighten Flame sigh and looked at Scootaloo and gave her a warm smile. "Please don't hurt her." "Sorry you had to see that Scoots. She is not the smartest mares in Equestia." I saw Scootaloo's eyes burned with anger. "First of all don't call me Scoots. Second, she is not stupid. She is the most caring pony I met since, you ponynapped me." I was so touched when I heard Scootaloo said that I smile. I also saw Lighten trying to bitten back his anger but he manage to smile in the end. "Then what do you want me to call you?" Scootaloo glared up at him. "Just Scootaloo." Lighten nodded and then started to walk over to me. I was so scared on what he was going to say or do to me. He put his lips to my ear she whispers only the two of us could hear. "Go in the kitchen and grab the spice that will make ponies forget their memories. If you disobey me, you are REALLY going to get it." I felt my white coat going even whiter. It never felt so much fear, not for myself but for Scootaloo. I gave him a weak nodded and slowly walked out the door. As I gotten in the kitchen I saw Blossom standing in the kitchen with an angry look on her face. "I can't believe Lighten wants you to do that! Why would he want Scootaloo to lose memories!? " "I think because he wants Scootaloo to stay with him and love him and not Fluttershy. To make her think that Fluttershy is the bad guy." "That does make since Sweetheart, but poor Fluttershy she would be heart broken. To see her daughter with no remember who she is and think she is evil." I looked around the cabinets and saw the spice that Lighten said. Then I saw another spice next to it. That was when I got an idea. I looked over to Blossom and saw tears falling down her cheeks. She know what I was think and she doesn't like it. "Sweetheart, please don't I-I don't want you to- " I cut her off by said. "I am only take a little bit. It'll won't be that effective as to drinking the whole thing." Blossom finally gave in and nodded. "Ok. I'll follow your plan just please be careful." I nodded and grabbed the two spices and put one in my tea and the other in Scootaloo's drink. "Sweetheart just before you do this I want to say that I love you and that you are bravest pony I know." I smiled at Blossom one lasted time then took a sip of my tea. "I love you too, Blossom. I'll see you later." I said as I walked out the door and put Scootaloo's drink were she is going to be sitting. I looked around and said in a quiet tone. "Let the magic begin." Scootaloo saw Lighten looking at Sweetheart as he was about to sit down on his chair. Scootaloo thought she saw Sweetheart nodded but she put it as her mind playing tricks with her. Scootaloo looked at the food and saw orange juice in front of her. She gladly grabbed it with her hooves and drank it all down. Scootaloo looked up and saw Sweetheart next to her. Scootaloo was about to say something and she put her hoof to Scootaloo's lips. "Don't speak with your mouth Scootaloo. Talk with your mind. First off, my name is Heart Blossom. I am Sweetheart's twin sister." Scootaloo's eyes widen and looked over and saw Sweetheart where she was when Lighten and her walked in. "Ok, I guess I got knocked out harder then I thought." Scootaloo thought to herself. "I am afraid not Scootaloo. You are seeing me and hearing me." Scootaloo turn your head to the Sweetheart look alike. "Is everything ok, Scootaloo?" Lighten said in confusion. Scootaloo turned to Lighten. "Yeah I am fine. I just thought I saw a spider. I REALLY don't like spiders." She said in a nervous laugh. Lighten nodded his head and continue to eat his food. "Listen Scootaloo, Lighten order Sweetheart to put a spice in your drink so you can lose your memories." Scootaloo begin to eat her food while listen to the Sweetheart look like talking. "Sweetheart didn't want that to happened to you, so see put the spice in her tea and see put the spice to see the spirits of ponies into yours. So I can tell you what is going on. " Scootaloo nodded to the mare but to Lighten it looks like that she is enjoying the food. "So did Sweetheart lost all her memories?" Scootaloo asked in her head. The mare shook her head. "No don't all. She remembers her name and her job, also knows what happened for the passed 2 weeks, but anything before that she doesn't." "Does Sweetheart remember you, look alike?" The mare gave Scootaloo a sad, angry look. "She remembers seeing me and knows my name but not that I am her sister and don't call me look alike. I told you it's Heart Blossom or Blossom for short. That is what Sweetheart calls me." "Ok, Blossom, what is the plan?" "You need to pretend that you lose your memory. " Scootaloo nodded. "Then what do I do then?" "Lighten is probably going to say your name and that he is your father. So you have to call him 'Daddy' or 'Dad' " Scootaloo almost choked on her food when she heard that. "Scootaloo, take pony bits. I know you are hungry but I don't want you dying on me." Lighten said. Scootaloo slowly nodded and continue to eat while talking to Blossom. "I rather be King Sombra's slave then call Lighten my 'Dad'! " "I know Scootaloo, I hate him too, but it is a price you have to take. I mean look what my sister did. She sacrifice most of her memories for you. Sweetheart is the kindest and bravest pony I know. So please do it for her." Scootaloo sighed and nodded. "Ok, I'll 'lose' my memories tomorrow morning." Blossom smiled and gave Scootaloo a kiss on her forehead. "Celestia bless you, Scootaloo and my sister. I know you two will get out of here safely and Lighten is going to get it for what he had done to you and my sister."
