Chapter 14: An unwanted read.
"What Scootaloo before you go to bed I think you should read this." DJ handed her a book. "Derpy won't want you to read this but I thought you should know about it."
"What are you talking about?"
"Just read it before she comes in and sees you with it."
Scootaloo blinked through her tired eyes and flipped through the pages. She passed out without reading a single word.
Next morning she picked up the book and read it. "Chapter one WAR."
"For a long time the worlds were pieced together everyone could be with whom they chose to be with, but some thought this wrong and tried to stop it. *The book showed a picture of Hitler* yet some believed that everyone should have rights to do as they please. Then a war broke out and the worlds split apart, loved ones were never seen again. Years past and the faint memories of the other worlds became forgotten and worlds lost sight of one-another, but then two worlds collided and they started fighting again. Guardians were made to protect the creatures living in each of the two worlds. The guardians made an agreement to split up the worlds and to make portals so they could visit one-another. Some guardians mated with non-guardians and created mutant offspring. They were known as demons but looked like normal creatures of that world. Many of the demons committed suicide at young ages because they were teased; others killed the ones that made fun of them and made everyone fear them. So they changed the names of the offspring to half-guardians and a world was created for them to live in."
Scootaloo stopped reading went downstairs to talk to DJ.
"Hey, I still don't know why she wouldn't want me to read that book. So far it's just about worlds and stuff."
"Yeah well when you get farther into it you'll see why."
"Hey guys!" Derpy said walking into the room.
"Hey!" They both replied.
"Scootaloo do you want to go ice fishing with me?"
"Mmm what's that, sounds boring."
"Well it's not the way I do it."
"Ok well do we need poles?"
"No, but spears."
"Boring!" Scootaloo sighed.
"No, it'll be fun." Derpy said grabbing a frozen water bottle from the freezer.
"Alright."
"So what size wet suit are you?"
"Wet what?"
"Great." Derpy said sarcastically.
The two walked outside and went to the swimming school.
"We have to get you fitted first."
"Ok."
Derpy got a size 8 around the usual filly size. She then handed it to Scootaloo who went to put it on.
"It's too tight!"
"Ok, I'll need a size 9.5 and an 11 thank you."
Derpy grabbed Scootaloo's wet suit and handed it to her. She tried putting it on and it fit comfortable. They went to the frozen lake and blew a hole in the ice. They dived in with spears and swam through the water with other scuba gear on until Derpy reached a dark cave. She swam in leaving Scootaloo behind.
"Come on kid what are you waiting for?" Derpy said.
"Nothing."
"Well come on there are sharks in these waters."
Scootaloo freaked out and swam inside. They met a rock on the water they could stand on and they climbed up on it.
"Wow!" Scootaloo shouted.
"Yeah it's beautiful. I used to come here as a filly just for this."
"Didn't we come here to "ice fish"?"
"Yeah we did."
"So come on!" Scootaloo slipped her mask on and jumped in the water. Derpy followed.
DJ was lying on Derpy's couch trying to sleep. There was a knock on the door. DJ went and answered it.
"Octavia what are . . .?" Octavia had kissed DJ.
"I'm sorry for kicking you out, do you want to come back home?" She asked.
"Well it depends are we a couple now?"
"I guess so." Octavia went in for another kiss but DJ pulled away.
"Hey what's wrong?"
"I can't. . . I just can't, Octavia I love you but I have to stay here, not for Derpy but for Scootaloo she's feeling alone and I want to be a better well mom before I get a filly myself."
"DJ, I'm proud of you. You're really taking control of your life."
"Thanks, I love Octavia but can you wait for me?"
"Sure how long?" Octavia asked.
"Two weeks at the least."
"Ok." Octavia kissed DJ one more time and was successful, she tried to hold the kiss for as long as she could but she had to breathe at some point. Octavia let go to breathe and left fir home.
Derpy and Scootaloo returned home for some rest and relax time. Scootaloo wanted to continue reading the book but Derpy took it away from her.
"I'll let you read it in the morning but for now get some sleep!" Derpy sent Scootaloo of to bed and Derpy did the same.
