Chapter 1
The mane six and the three fillies sit and stare at each other trying to say the right words as if it were their last.
"Rainbow Dash" Scootaloo peeped. The cyan pegasus looked back at the orange filly. "Yeah, kid" she said. "Will we ever see each other again" Scoot started to cry. "Scootaloo, don't cry" a yellow pegasus said. Everyone looked at
Fluttershy. "We may not even get picked" she tried to cheer her up. "If we do" Apple Bloom looked at her big sister.
"We'll survive, y'all can do some pretty amazin' things" Apple Jack smiled. "Like what" Sweetie Belle asked. "Well, Twilight has her magic" Rainbow motioned to Twilight. "Fluttershy is great with animals, aggressive ones too so she can
build her own army" Twilight laughed.
"Apple Jack has incredible strength" Fluttershy smiled. "Pinkie Pie has Pinkamina on her side" Rarity said. "No, I hate my sad side, I can never bring that rock farming, smile stealing, scary girl back" Pinkie cried. "Well, if you say so" Twilight said.
"What about me what can I do" Sweetie Belle asked. "Singing" Scoot blurted out. "Singing isn't going to help me survive." "It may" Rarity smiled. "How" Sweetie asked. "Well, if you need help you can signal your partner, by singing, to come
help you" Rainbow explained.
"Me" Apple bloom asked. "Your amazing at making things, like when you fixed up our whole tree house" Sweetie smiled. "Yeah I guess so" Apple Bloom blushed.
"Me?" Scoot asked eagerly. "Your scooter" Rainbow said with no doubt. "My scooter, yeah I'm good on it but""Good? You absolute no doubt amazing on your scooter, pipsqueak" Rainbow smiled
letting Scootaloo know never to doubt her on her scooter skills. "And your allowed to take 1 item for your own purposes" Rarity said.
Scootaloo felt better, she thought 'maybe I have a chance in this'."Well girls we have a reaping tomorrow lets get some shut eye, shall we" Twilight asked. The ponies all nodded.
Scootaloo snuggled up against Rainbow Dash who laid beside Pinkie Pie. Rarity lied beside her little sister, Sweetie, on the other side Applejack. Twilight put a blanket on top of Spike in his bed/basket and sat herself down beside
Applejack and Fluttershy
"Awake up girls" Fluttershy smiled, nudging Rainbow to get up. Fluttershy gets up earlier than the girls, usually because she has animals to feed. Rainbow finally gave in and woke up. "Fluttershy, I'm sleeping" Rainbow mumbled. "I have
an idea to make Scoot feel better" Fluttershy smiled.
"How" Rainbow perked up, even though Scootaloo was just a friend fan girl she still cared for her like a sister. "Take her out for flying lessons, she told me that she has been waiting since she was born" Fluttershy giggled. Rainbow looked at the sleeping filly holding a Rainbow Dash doll that she said she hand made
herself, with a little help of Rarity.
"Okay, should I wake Scoot now" Rainbow asked Fluttershy. "Give her a hour fillies need there rest" Fluttershy walked to the bathroom to get herself ready.
Fluttershy was secretly hiding her fear of possibility of being in the arena. She knew she would be just another thing to 'take care of' when the fillies are already skeptical of what may happen. She brushed her hair to its natural flow, and put a hair bow on her front left hoof just in case.
Rainbow lied down to shut her eyes for a minute since Fluttershy woke her up to early. Twilight got herself up and woke spike to wake the others. Fluttershy walked out if the bathroom to let Twilight use it. "Flutter" Twilight said. Fluttershy turned around. "I know your scared, but this time we all are so no
need to hide it okay?" Twilight smiled. Fluttershy nodded, and walked to check
on Rainbow who was back in her little sleeping bag.
"Rainbow" she whispered. "I'm up" she growled. "Scoot" Fluttershy whispered a little smaller. Rainbow woke up immediately to wake the little filly. "Hey
pipsqueak I have a surprise for you" Rainbow nudged. Scootaloo slowly came to
her senses. "What" she piped up. "Flying Lessons" Rainbow tried to say epic fashion. "Really, this isn't a joke" Scoot couldn't believe it, she has been waiting since she was born.
Scootaloo held her RD doll and hid it behind he back. "Hey, it's not bad I like the doll" Rainbow blushed. "Time to go" she flew out the door with Scootaloo following her.
"Now when Rainbow isn't such a pain the the butt, she is so sweet to Scootaloo isn't she" Applejack asked Rarity. "Rainbow is a great role model, especially being the element of 'loyalty' and all" Rarity smiled looking out the window as
Rainbow Dash files the filly on her back showing her how to fly.
"So do you get it now" smiled Rainbow, putting Scoot on the ground. "Yes" Scootaloo answered. "Now you try it" Rainbow landing herself on the ground. Scoot flapped her wings enough to get her 5 inches of the ground, and the she gave up and belly flopped the ground. "I know you have more in ya kid" she
smiled. Scootaloo got up and flapped and got almost to the top of Twilight's lower balcony.
"See there ya go" Rainbow smiled happily. "Now try to pull yourself forward" Scootaloo struggled to pull herself forward but managed by an inch. Scootaloo fell as the giant tower bell rang saying time for the reaping. Rainbow Dash caught Scoot and safely putting her of the lower balcony.
"Go inside i'll meet you in there" Scootaloo nodded as Rainbow Dash flew inside. Scootaloo opened the door and walked into Twilight's bedroom and flew down to the room where all the ponies were sleeping.
"Rarity could you hurry up in there" Applejack sneered. "Fine, I just don't know how you get your hair ready all you do is put a silly hat on" Rarity shrugged. Applejack ignored Rarity an walked in the bathroom.
Soon all the ponies got ready and said their final goodbyes. They all gathered together and sat anxiously. The three fillies hugged and dreaded together along with the other fillies and their friends. "Good day every pony let's get started shall we" the mayor continued. "As always the names will be picked randomly, so it could be all three girls or all three boys" she explained like every year.
"Alright our first tribute is...Scootaloo"
