Family History sounds boring... until you learn one of your ancestors was a legendary outlaw. That’s what Scootaloo learned, and it was awesome.

Then Scootaloo learned she gave up being an outlaw for no good reason. What gives?

“But…” Twilight protested weakly. Her voice trailed off as she realized the door had slammed. She pouted. “Fine. I know someone else who likes true love. Spike!”

Nice finish to the chapter there.

“I’m Golden Brace, one of the first unicorns in football,” Sweetie answered proudly.
“How did Rarity take that?” Apple Bloom asked.
“Fairly well,” Sweetie Belle said wryly. “We did the family history, she realized she was the only fashionista or fashionisto in our history, realized she was a pioneer in our family and somehow got inspired for a new line.”

That's Rarity for you. XD

Snails was next, probably because Miss Cheerilee thought he wasn’t paying attention. He stood in front and glanced around. “I’m myself, but dead. If I lived when my ancestors did, I’d be dead, because when I was two, I stepped on a poisonous snail and the antivenin hadn’t been invented yet, so if I were born then, I’d be dead.” He nodded proudly, done with his presentation.

And that was just hilarious.

Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon walked across the stage, their eyes comically wide. “Oh, I hope nothing bad happens to our ill-gotten goods,” Diamond started. “What if Little Red Riding Hood haunts these woods?”
“Fear not, milady,” Silver Spoon answered. “For the rogue Little Red Riding Hood is naught but a myth.”
“Then today is the day myths come to life!” Scootaloo leapt from the shadows, her cape billowing, with Apple Bloom the timberwolf bounding along behind her. She straightened up proudly. “Stand and deliver!”

Great way to end the chapter.

“Scootaloo!” Her father ran over and pulled her into a hug. “That was wonderful, sweetie. You did great.” He knelt down to meet her eyes. “And... I think it’s time you learned what your mother and I actually do all day.”

Oh boy. XD

Well, this was a fun little story. I really got a kick out of it!
