Ending 2: That Glowing Feeling
Scootaloo is lifted off the ground. “It’s working!” She flies over to her friends. “This is great!”
“Glad to see ya up here with us Scoots.” Apple Bloom says.
“What’s all the noise down here?” Rainbow Dash asks as she flies down and sees the three fillies in the air. “All are all three of you flying?”
“The Flim Flam Brothers finally made something that works.” Apple Bloom says.
“Isn’t this great?” Scootaloo asks. “I can finally fly!”
“Doesn’t feel right. You’re not moving your wings.”
Scootaloo looks back and realizes that she indeed isn’t moving her wings and starts flapping them only to start going down. “Hey, what’s up?”
“Scootaloo stop flapping your wings.” Sweetie Belle says. “Maybe the tonic will work again.”
Scootaloo stops flapping her wings and starts falling faster. She quickly flaps her wings as hard as she can slowing her fall enough that she isn’t hurt when she hits the ground. “I guess it wore off already.”
“Weird,” Sweetie says. “We both took the tonic before you, and we’re still in the air,”
“Guess it wears off quicker on some ponies.” Scootaloo says. “It’s sad to be back on the ground already, but at least I flew for a little.”
“Uh, Scootaloo, something’s wrong with your wings.” Apple Bloom says.
Scootaloo looks back to see that her normal orange plumage has turned an awful green color. “What?!”
“Come on Squirt.” Rainbow Dash says as she grabs her. “Let’s get you to Twilight, she’ll know what to do.” Rainbow flies with Scootaloo in her front legs to the castle. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom follow behind.
They enter the castle to see Twilight reading in her personal library. She looks up from her book. "Rainbow Dash what's going on?"
Just then Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle fly in. "Is Scootaloo going to be okay?"
Twilight looks at them. "How are you flying?"
"It's an interesting story." Apple Bloom says before filling Twilight in the events of the day.
"All right." Twilight says. "Let's go down to my lab." She gets up and leads them down some stairs. As she descends she lights up her horn. When they get to the bottom it's dark other than her horn and two glowing objects.
"What's glowing? Sweetie Belle asks.
"It's me." Scootaloo says and everypony looks back at her.
"Twilight, put your horn out." Rainbow Dash says.
Twilight extinguishes her horn and they all look in shock at Scootaloo's wings that are lighting the area up bright as day.
Rainbow Dash starts laughing. "Hey, this isn't funny!"
Twilight hides a smirks with her hoof. "I see it as mildly amusing."
"Come on, let's see if you can reverse this." Scootaloo says and they all go into the lab.
A couple hours later they all exit the lab. Scootaloo hangs her head as she walks, her bright green wings tucked against her sides. "I'm sorry." Sweetie Belle as she comes out behind her.
"I should have guessed that it would be permanent." Scootaloo says. "At least I got to fly for a little."
"You could drink more of the tonic." Sweetie Belle offers. "It might reverse the effects."
"Twilight said it might also make my wings fall off." Scootaloo says. "Besides she said that they were impounding all the remaining tonic."
Sweetie nods. "Oh well. Maybe you can get your cutie mark as a crossing guard in Manehatten?"
"What are you talking about?"
"When Rarity took me there I saw ponies whose job it was to stop traffic and let ponies through. They all wore jackets about the color of your wings."
Scootaloo sighs. "Worth a try."
A month later Scootaloo returns to Ponyville with a cutie mark in the shape of a five sided yellow sign a image of a pony crossing in a crosswalk is on the sign.
