//------------------------------// // They know eachother?!? // Story: Scootaloo's Crush // by RainbowdashieCloudsdale //------------------------------// They both left Twilight’s castle to go back to Rumble’s house. The weather was beautiful. The sun was beaming down on their backs, and a slight breeze was ruffling their manes. It was the perfect weather for being outside. “Didn’t Pinkie want us to come by today?” Rumble asked as Scootaloo nodded her head, her expression harboring a look of uncertainty. “Yeah… But Pinkie can wait.. First, we need to finish our project for school,” Scootaloo replied. Rumble nodded. “Yeah, that’s true. Let’s go to my house and finish that project!” At that moment, they both saw a rainbow maned pegasus flying towards them. It was obvious to tell who it was: Rainbow Dash. Rainbow did a flip in the air before descending in front of the two, whipping her mane to the side. Scootaloo brightly smiled at the sight of her honorary sister. “Hey Rainbow!” Rainbow Dash smiled back at her before ruffling her mane. “Hey squirt! What are you two doing here?” “We need to do a boring project for school,” Scootaloo said as she rolled her eyes. “A project about what?” Rainbow asked, an eyebrow raised. “About the history of Cloudsdale.” Rainbow’s eyes widened. “Why didn’t you tell me about that?! I know everything about Cloudsdale!” “Well, Scootaloo couldn't fly because of her wing injury so we couldn't go and visit you in your home in Cloudsdale,” Rumble said. Rainbow raised an eyebrow. “Wing injury? When did you get that? It doesn't look injured to me!” Scootaloo’s pupils shrunk.“Uhmm... yeah... it... uhhmm... it really hurts when i try to fl- uhm.. when i fly!” Rainbow nodded, though her eyes exhibited a look of confusion. “Okay then.. well, what do you two want to know about Cloudsdale history?” “As much as possible!” Rumble replied. Rainbow nodded. “Okay then! But we better sit down somewhere because I'm going to tell you a lot! We can go to Sugarcube Corner, maybe Pinkie has some free seats!” “NOOOO!!!!” Scootaloo replied. Rainbow raised an eyebrow out of confusion “Why not?” Scootaloo internally winced. She hated the idea of going to Sugarcube Corner with Rumble, considering Pinkie Pie likes to tease about the two being a couple. “Uhm.. Pinkie.. uhmm.. must be… very busy right now!” Still confused, Rainbow replied. “Okay.. let's go to Twilight then.” “NOOOOOO!!!!” Scootaloo once again yelled, earning a confused look from Dash. “Ahww. Come on, what’s wrong with Twilight?” “She explains thing in the Twilight way,” Scootaloo replied, rolling her eyes. “‘Twilight way’?” Rainbow asked, confused. “Yeah, the Twilight way, that simply means: BORING!” Scootaloo replied. “That's true… Twilight can be a little boring sometimes… “ “A little boring?” Rumble replied “Okay then… She’s very boring….” Rumble snickered before responding. “Well then… Let's just go to my home to sit down there.” “Okay!” Rainbow Dash took off with a huge amount of speed, leaving a trail of dust behind, but she quickly returned. “What are you two slowpokes doing? Give me a little bit of competition!” Rainbow Dash playfully flew a couple of rounds around Rumble and Scootaloo. “Yeah… we know you're the fastest Rainbow Dash,” said Scootaloo while she rolled her eyes. “Okay… I’ll fly a bit slower…” --- After a while they all arrived at Rumble’s house --- As they entered the house Rainbow Dash noticed the pictures on the wall in the hallway. “I know that Pegasus!” she said while looking at one of the pictures. She gawked over it before walking with the younger pegasi into the living room. “Thunderlane? or should I say... Thunderlame?” Rainbow said to a certain dark pegasus, bouncing her eyebrows in a teasing manner. “Ohh... Rainbow Crash…. My rival,” Thunderlane replied, glaring at Rainbow. Scootaloo and Rumble looked at each other. “Does your brother know my sister?” “I think they do,” Rumble replied. “We don't only know each other. We were in the same class in flight school!” Rainbow said, smiling at the memories. “And we still haven't found out who is the fastest of us two!” Thunderlane added on. “I still remember it… That last race I ever did in flight school. I was sure I was going to win it!” Rainbow said. “But we finished on the exact same time.. and since then we still don’t know who's the fastest of us both!” Thunderlane exclaimed.
