Scootaloo rode her Scooter across Ponyville to the park. She wanted to get there as fast as she could. She didn't want to miss Rainbow Dash. When she reached the park, she scanned the premises for Rainbow Dash. She thought she was too late for a second, but she found a rainbow tail hanging down on a tree to her right. 

“Rainbow Dash, I need a lot of help to win the Cutie Cup!” Scootaloo instantly shouted. She didn't even give Rainbow a chance to wake up. 

There was a loud thump as Rainbow Dash hit the ground. She sat up and rubbed her head. She opened her eyes half way and saw two Scootaloos standing in front of her. Her vision gradually went back to normal, then she stood up. “Warn me next time,” Rainbow told her. 

Scootaloo apologized then said, “I know you've never competed in the Cutie Cup, but I'm sure you would have won if you did!” 

Rainbow flew slightly above the ground and puffed out her chest, “Of course I would have!” she stated proudly. She flew back down on the ground, “What do you need help with?” 

“Everything,” Scootaloo admitted. 

Rainbow cocked her head, “Really? Listen, I will definitely help you with the relay race and tug-o-war, maybe capture the flag, too, but you're on your own with rock climbing and item finding.” 

“I thought you would be great at rock climbing!” Scootaloo told her. 

“I never needed to. I can fly,” Rainbow pointed out. Scootaloo lowered her head. Rainbow didn't mean to hurt her. “You'll be a rock climbing champion in no time! You should ask Applejack for help on that, though.” She noticed Scootaloo's head rose back up to normal level. “Are you ready for your training?” 

“I should probably get Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle first,” Scootaloo said as she ran off towards Sweet Apple Acres.
