Recovery
(Authors note) Next chapter will focus on Soarin and Dash dont worry romance up next :)
Rainbow woke up on a fluffy bed she was confused she wasnt in the forest a million things went through her mind "Where is Scootaloo? how did i get here? what is going on?" Then she looked over her left shoulder Soarin was fast asleep he had fallen asleep eating one of Applejacks famous apple pies his head was dunked in it Rainbow started snickering at him he woke up.
"What what oh its you" Said Soarin sounding very very tired he got up and stretched Rainbow looked like hell she had bandages everywhere and a few stitch's one very painful looking one on her left brow.
"Soarin please tell me Scootaloo is ok i did everything i could to protect her" Rainbow was almost crying she was certain that the filly was dead.
"Listen Dash Scoots is alive but she has been unconcious since we rushed her here to hospital the doctors said that her wing took the main impact of the fall she might never fly again" Rainbow started crying not even trying to restrain herself.
"She has never flown properly though Soarin i wanted to teach her how to fly i wanted to be the one who was their when she learnt her first trick" Rainbow was in hysterics Soarin saw that she needed somepony their for her so he walked over and let her rest her head on his shoulder he wrapped his arms around her.
"Dash you are the best mum that kid could ask for she loves you more than life itself she would give up anything for you and she will never loose that you are her idol" Sair Soarin reasuringly Dash lifted her head "I want to see her i want to make sure she is ok" Dash got out of bed and limped down the hallway three of her legs were find but the back left one was torn to shreds she must of hit it on her way down the tree she saw Scootaloo across the coridor and flew quickly down to see her.
"Oh Scootaloo im so sorry that this had to happen maybe im not the right parent for you maybe you need a parent who puts life before limb" Dash shed a tear that landed on Scootaloo Dash gave her a hug fealing that she only had one option and it was to give Scootaloo over to someone more responsible.
"Rainbow Dash is that you" her eyes were starting to open very weakly "Yeah squirt its me you dont think a few broken bones could keep me down do ya" Said Dash trying to cheer up Scootaloo Scootaloo smiled back.
"Listen Scoots i have really been thinking about this and i think that you would be better off" Rainbow was cut off by Scootaloo "Rainbow Dash you are wrong and couldnt be more wrong if you tried you know sometimes you are a stupid mare i wouldnt be better off with someone else you are the best mum in the world you are the only pony that i feal safe and happy around all the time when my dad had me above the forest i was really scared until i saw your rainboom and it instantly cheered me up knowing that you were their" Rainbow didnt know how to reply too that for such a young filly she was really wise she turned around to see Soarin standing their and all her friends including Sweetybell and Applebloom Twilight was the first to speak.
"Rainbow oh my gosh are you ok you look like hell" "Yeah im fine just a few broken bones im more worried about Scootaloo the thought of her being hurt makes me cringe but to know that she actually is hurt is even worse it is like a wild manticore eating away at me" Twilight was quite shocked at Rainbows answer normally her friend would of said some arogant line like "Yeah im awesome as always" Rarity stepped foreward
"Darling you need some rest if you want when Scootaloo is better i will have her for a little bit until your better i mean" Rainbow started to snarl the thought of someone else near her daughter at that time just drove her insane she was looking very angrily at her friends as if to say try and take her she didnt even know what she was doing it was just her instincts talking Rarity looked at her friend like she had just punched her in the face and spat on her "Rainbow Dash dont treat me like that i am your friend and your behaviour is sympoly diabolical" Rainbow calmed down and put her head down in shame she fealt a warm hug from Rarity this soothed her and made her feal relaxed she took a deep breath "Im sorry Rarity i dont know what came over me im just extremely protective over Scootaloo lately she is my daughter ya know?"
"We all understand Rainbow none of us are parents but we have siblings that we would die for" Fluttershy looked like she wanted to talk but couldnt find the courage to say so and whenever she found the courage someone would interupt her the person to do it this time was Soarin "Hey Dash me and Spitfire have to take off we have to be at a show in ten minutes listen here is the wonderbolt card we are having auditions for the wonderbolts in a few days you should be their all the details are o the card" as Soarin said that he took off with Spitfire close behind him everyone still their had their jaws dropped Rainbow didnt even look at the card on the floor she was stroking Scootaloo's mane and she ignored the card "Um Rainbow dont ya know what just hapned the wonderbolts want you to audition" "Thats nice" Said Rainbow almost in a tranquil way she didnt even flinch her mind was set on keeping Scootaloo safe and nothing else.
"Oh my gosh guys can you believe this Rainbow's chance to live the dream and she cares more about her daughter she truly is the best mum i can think of" Said Twilight who looked so incredibly proud of her friend she was more than amazed.
Scootaloo hopped up out of bed and limped to the card and put it in her mouth and showed it to her mum "I know kid but your more important right now i care about you more than myself how about we get you home" Said Rainbow in a nice calm way Rainbow and Scootaloo walked through the crowd of friends standing their still trying to comprehend what had just happened.
When they got home Scootaloo spread out her wings "What do you think your doing?" Said Rainbow looked at her friend sternly "Rainbow i was flying a few hours ago i have never fealt so happy in my life if i cant fly again i dont want to live i will fly if it kills me i truly am passionate about this "i never was good at keeping to rules practice inside i dont want you going outside and dont break anything or its coming out of your pocket money" "I get pocket money?" "Hell yeah kido how does 10 gold a week sound?" Scootaloo fealt so happy this pegasus was everything she could of wanted she was flying with one hoof on the ground making very quick progress.
The next morning Rainbow woke up because she heard flapping coming from above her it was Scootaloo "Look Rainbow i dont have a hoof on the ground and im flying i can keep myself up here for ages and thats not all look at this im not a blank anymore" Scootaloo turned around she had a cutie mark it was a cloud like Rainbow Dash's but instead of the rainbow bolt their were two orange bolts crossing infront of the cloud like swords "Oh my gosh Scootaloo well done im so proud of you wait here i have an idea" Rainbow got out of bed and went to her closet rumaging through the rubish in her closet "Ah got it" She pulled out a young wonderbolt uniform "This used to fit me when i was about your size im sure it will fit you perfectly" Scootaloo put it on she looked amazing in it like a true wonderbolt she keapt that face part off because it didnt fit "Now" Said Rainbow in a smug fashion "Lets go outside im gonna teach you how to get from the ground to the mansion so you can take yourself to and from school" they both walked outside to the edge of the cloud Scootaloo remembered how to dive which is exactly what she did with Dash they got near the ground so pulled up then Dash said "Follow my lead" Rainbow leaned back with all her might so that she almost stopped she hovered for a bit then landed Scootaloo had a bit of a more rough landing but none the less she still landed.
"Now" Said Rainbow "You can get off the cloud but can you get back on it" Rainbow launched herself into the air and nodded at Scootaloo signaling her to follow Scootaloo did with all her might Rainbow changed position so that her head was pointing to the sky and the body changed position so that it was following then she flapped her wings as fast as she could to get some speed on her uplift Scootaloo was struggling to keep up but she still was Rainbow kind of pranced onto the cloud and Scootaloo kind of crashed into the cloud.
