Motherscotch and Blitz (non canon)

So, dear reader, I've established pretty well here http://pastebin.com/MzS6qYct that Rainbow Blitz is cool with Butterscotch getting his first real kiss (and head, but he doesn't need to know that yet) from his own mom, even if the shy yellow stallion didn't really ask for it.
I mean, Butterscotch was pretty upfront about it, right?
and they are good friends, right?
and friends should forgive friends... right?

...but what if?

There's a whole realm of possibilities out there...
an infinitely expanding universe worth of different possibilities, choices and actions.
let's go explore for a short while...
and let's see what would have happened if a certain rainbow-maned pegasus made some different choices...
some not so friendly choices...

>A rainbow streak tore through the evening sky
>powered by unfiltered anger and a dash of hurt
>the hurt of betrayal by one of his best friends
>Rainbow Blitz grit his teeth as the high speed winds hit his body
>How could his former best friend do something like... that...
>With his own mom?
>you don't mess with a pony's mom
>and you don't tell that pony that his mom sucked your dick
>especially at another pony's birthday party
>but, that problem was taken care of now
>one hoof to the face and Butterscotch had dropped like a sack of potatoes
>Blitz smiled at that thought
>that little pink-maned pussy
>and he had thrown a few more hooves for good measure
>can never be too careful
>and that problem wouldn't be around for a while
>because Blitz had made a delivery
>to the center of the Everfree woods
>Package: One unconscious yellow pegasus.
>Very fragile.
>well, after he was done with him, he was
>but Blitz made sure it reached it's destination safely
>he dropped it off himself

>but hey, Butterscotch liked animals
>and the Everfree was full of animals!
>so many different types!
>it'd be like a vacation
>Scotch deserved it
>and Blitz was about to go on his own vacation
>No, it was more of a mission
>a mission to get with Butterscotch's mom
>
>Rainbow Blitz flew to the outskirts of Cloudsdale
>he still had a good idea where Butterscrote's family lived
>even though he hadn't visited them in a few years
>he might have still been in flight school the last time he saw Scotch's mom
>But he did remember one thing
>she was a very pretty mare
>Blitz grinned as he flew through the air
>hey, it was only fair
>a mom for a mom
>the stallion's adrenaline had worn off on the flight from the Everfree
>and that cleared his head so he could think
>how was he going to go about this?
>he was going to have to be smart.
>Scotch had said something about his dad going out of town for a while...
>which meant she was all alone in their house
>can't just bust in the house and force himself on her
>that would be very wrong
>Blitz shuddered as he remembered what happened to the last stallion that had forced himself on a mare
>it was the first time that happened in a hundred years
>apparently that stallion was punished by Princess Celestia herself publicly
>and his screams could be heard for miles...
>as the target house came into sight, Blitz decided that he was just going to knock on the door and offer the poor lonely mare some company
>and see where it went from there...
>Blitz landed on the front porch of the modest cloud home
>he un-ruffled his mane and ran a hoof over his wings
>gotta make a good impression
>he brought his hoof up and knocked on the door

>as the light clip-clop of hooves neared the door, Blitz put on a smile
>the door began to slowly open, and he sat up straight
>gotta look good
>"well, I always look good" he thought to himself
>the door had opened only a crack
>"um, Who is it?"
"Hello, miss Butterscotch's mom."
>Blitz said in his smoothest voice
>there was a light gasp from behind the door
>the door closed, the latch was fumbled with, and the door opened again
>Rainbow Blitz's eyes grew slightly wider
>before him stood an absolutely beautiful mare
>she was a tall, thin pony with a lovely yellow coat
>not like Buttscotch's faded yellow, but a nice warm yellow
>her long, light blue mane draped to one side with one streak of light gray through the middle
>and it was very well maintained. Not a hair out of place
>her petite wings rested on her sides, in a way similar to Scotch's
>he must take after his mom
>Blitz was slightly taken aback as he looked into her soft, light orange eyes
>"Rainbow Blitz, is that you?"
>she smiled at him
"Y-yes ma'am."
>"My, how you've grown!"
>she hugged the blue stallion
>"Why, you shot up from a colt to such a handsome little stallion so quick!"
>Blitz wanted to tell her that she had aged like the finest wine, but that could wait
>can't use his best lines right out the gate
"You look very nice too, ma'am"
>"Aww, and such a sweetie too."
>yeah, sweet
>"It's good to see you, but... um, what are you doing here, dearie?"

"oh. uh..."
>maybe he hadn't thought this all the way through
>come on brain, think
"uhh... Butterscotch said I could come over..."
>nice save
>"Aww, he must have told you we were having dinner tonight and invited you."
"...yeah. That."
>"Well, that's fine. I made plenty and I do not mind sharing. Especially with my sweet little colt's good friends."
>Blitz smiled at her soft voice
>"But do come in."
"Yes ma'am"
>Blitz followed behind the mare as she lead him through the house to the kitchen
>thoroughly admiring her flanks along the way
>she had the butt of a mare half her age
>noice
>"He told me he was going to be a little late tonight, so we'll be a little naughty before he gets here..."
>the stallion broke his focus on her rump and swung his head up
"w-wait- What?"
>was it going to be that easy?
>could explain how Butterscotch did it...
>"Yes." the motherly mare giggled
>"We're going to start dinner without everypony here!"
"Oh..."
>"Ooh! I hope my little colt doesn't get mad..."
>wait, Butterscotch... mad?
>well, he wasn't going to get anything anytime soon

>The mare entered the kitchen and began to head towards the pots on the stove
>"Go ahead and take a seat, sweetie."
>Blitz sat at the small kitchen table and began to look around the room
>it was a somewhat small, candlelit room
>with lots of little decorations, flowers and small pictures around
>he slightly furrowed his brow when he saw a photo of a younger Butterscotch right beside the table
>the table seemed like it can only seat two, maybe three ponies
>a very intimate setting...
>which would be a big help for Blitz
"So, uh, what's for dinner?"
>the stallion said while taking in the aroma that filled the kitchen
>"oh, I made Butterscotch's favorite. Spaghetti."
"Sounds good. And smells good."
>the mare giggled
>within a minute, the mare sat a nice, full plate in front of the stallion
>it almost looked like something Elusive would order at some fancy restaurant
>Blitz's mouth was practically watering as he stared at the plate
>he didn't realize he was this hungry
>the mare chuckled lightly
>"Go ahead, dear, You are a growing stallion."
>and she took her seat across from the stallion
>Blitz was quickly stuffing his face
>hey, it was good
>Very good.
>if his mom could cook this good, how come Scotch wasn't fat?
>he looked up to see the mare taking very small bites and slowly chewing them
>maybe he should slow down...
>the two ponies sat there and enjoyed their dinner in the quiet

>after a minute or two, Blitz had cleared his plate
>he resisted the urge to lick it clean
>good impression, and all that
>he looked up to the motherly mare, who had barely made a dent in her plate
>she smiled a warm smile at the stallion
>"Would you like some more, sweetie?"
"I, uh..."
>he didn't want to seem like a pig
>"I'll get you some more."
>the mare got up, took his plate and headed towards the stove
"You didn't... I would have got it."
>"Nonsense. You are a guest in my home."
>Blitz smiled
>she was such a nice pony
>he hoped she was nice in bed, too
>the pretty yellow mare sat another nice, full plate in front of the stallion
>it looked even better than the last
"Thank you, ma'am"
>"You're welcome."
>she took her seat again
>she lightly sighed while looking at her plate
>Blitz looked up from round 2 of stuffing his face
"You ok, ma'am?"
>he said with a mouthful of food
>"Yes."
>she looked up to the clock on the wall
>"It's just Scotchie should have been here by now. He wouldn't miss his favorite dinner."
>she turned her attention to the stallion across from her
>"You must be wonderful at flying, to get here before him."
"Yeah, looks like I beat him"

>Rainbow Blitz's eyes shot to pinpricks
>did he seriously just say that?
"I mean- uh-"
>he started coughing, nearly choking on his food and spilling his plate
>Scotch's mom ran to his side and started patting his back
>"Are you alright!?"
>she asked him with genuine concern
>Blitz was able to quell his coughing fit
"...yeah, i'm good"
>he eventually stammered out, his eyes watering
>"Oh thank Celestia."
>she hugged him and lightly pat his back
>"I couldn't live with myself if something happened to you on my watch."
>the stallion was genuinely touched by her kindness
>maybe he should rethink his plan of visiting Scotch's first apartment...
>he checked out the mare hugging him
>...or maybe he shouldn't
"um, t-thank you"
>"And you shouldn't talk with your mouth full, dear."
>Blitz swallowed and spoke up
"I know..."
>she broke the hug and took her seat again
>"Now where were we?"
>oh yeah
"Scotch probably had to, uh..."
>come on brain, don't' fail me now
"...go check on some animals or something?"
>"Oh yeah, he did say that one of his cats in his care had kittens."
>nice one, brain. You redeemed yourself
>"I wanted to go see them, I bet they are so cute!"
>Blitz smiled while looking at her
>I bet she's got a "cat" that's cute...
"Yeah, that's probably where he is."
>not unconscious, in the middle of the Everfree...
>"Oh,I just hope he makes it here alright."

"I bet he's fine."
>Blitz went back to eating
>he might be fine
>...eventually
>Blitz did give it to him pretty hard
>maybe he shouldn't have...
>wait, was he feeling bad about what he did to Scotch?
>No, he shouldn't feel bad
>that little pussy tried to hook up with mom
>Blitz was replaying the events of the party in his head
>he stared down the timid pegasus
>"She, um, seemed to enjoy herself..."
>the blue stallion grit his teeth
>"and, um, she was good at it... I think..."
>just thinking about it filled the rainbow maned pony with anger
>and that's the last thing Scotch said before Blitz hauled off and hoofed him square in the jaw
>and a couple more hoofs
>and a buck to a sensitive area
>that'd teach him
>Blitz looked up to the mare across from him
>the sight of her calmed him down considerably
>her youthful appearance and warm smile...
>her long, pretty mane...
>and her look of concern as she ate
>...maybe he was feeling bad about it
>his eyes trailed to the small pictures of her and Scotch that adorned the walls
>she did genuinely care for her son...
>and judging by the pictures, her only child
>maybe he shouldn't have hit him so hard...
>no, no.
>Blitz shook his head, trying to shake the doubt from his head
>Scotch was a horrible pony now
>the blue pegasus lifted his head from his plate and slid it away form him

>"You full, sweetie?"
"uh, Yes, miss."
>"Well, I hope you saved room for desert."
"Oh, I have."
>oh yeah Blitz was gonna have desert
>a Scotch's-mom's-legs split, with extra cream
>the stallion grinned at his own joke
>"But we may have to wait until Butterscotch gets here. The pudding should be set up by the time he gets here."
>Blitz grinned again
>he was gonna eat some of her pudding
>wait, could that be an innuendo?
>a good one or a bad one?
>...
>wait, she was going to wait on Scotch?
>Blitz stared forward blankly
>well, he'd be gone by the time Scotch even thought of heading this way
>...if he made it out of the everfree
>if he could even make it out
>Blitz sat in silence, still staring forward, as Scotch's mom finished her meal
>she got up, gathered the utensils and plates and set them in the sink
>then she walked over and hugged the blue pegasus again, breaking his train of thought
>"Thank you Rainbow Blitz."
>she had caught him off guard
"i-uh, f-for what?"
>"For coming and spending time with an old mare like myself."
"it, uh, It was a pleasure. It's not every day I get to have dinner with a beautiful mare."
>nice one, dude
>"Awww..."
>he hugged her in return
>he could smell her mane. It smelled heavenly
"And a beautiful mare, such as yourself shouldn't have to be all lonely."
>she looked him in the eyes while giggling like a schoolfilly
>"Oh, are you trying to flatter me?"
>Blitz only smiled at her
>"It may be working. You deserve something special..."
>oh shoot now is his chance
>he closed his eyes and leaned in to kiss her

>Blitz felt her soft...
>nothing
>they should have touched lips by now...
*mwah*
>he felt her lips lightly touch his forehead, then she broke their hug
>he opened his eyes to look at her
>she had backed off form him, her face was a beautiful shade of pink
>she giggled again
>"Don't tell anypony I did that. Remember, I'm a married mare!"
"...okay."
>"But for something special..."
>Blitz stared as she headed towards the fridge
>"We can go ahead and eat that pudding. It may be a little runny though."
"...that sounds good."
>the stallion continued sitting and went back to staring forward
>his grand master plan had been foiled
>gonna have to wing it now
>he can do this
>the mare sat a small spoon and an ornate little cup filled to the brim with a creamy, yellow substance in front of the stallion
>"Now, tell me if it's good. I tried a new recipe."
>Blitz raised the spoon to his mouth and took a bite
>his eyes lit up
"This is good."
>runny, but good
>he saw the mare grin at him
"This is very good!"
>"Why thank you, It's an old recipe I found-"
>she was interrupted by
*KNOCK*KNOCK*knock knock knock*
>Blitz's spoon clattered to the floor as his stomach dropped
>"Oh, well I wonder who that could be."

>Blitz started shaking slightly
>his mind was racing
>how could Scotch had followed him that quick?
>he was out cold...
>and he wasn't in any shape to fly
>it took Blitz a few minutes to fly from the Everfree to Cloudsdale, and he was in near-peak fitness
>Scotch couldn't fly that fast
>or go that far without stopping...
>Scotch liked to coast along gently
>unless...
>unless Blitz had awoken something in Butterscotch
>maybe the betrayal of a good friend pushed him over the proverbial edge
>Rainbow Blitz's eyes grew wide
>and maybe dumping him in the forest that was the center of weird, unexplained stuff was a bad idea
>what if he had created some kind of... Nightmare Butterscotch
>a terrible, pink maned, rage filled beast of a stallion powered by a thirst for vengeance
>ripping through the skies, hunting down a rainbow-maned stallion
>to crush him with his hooves...
>...or feed him to an army of the weird, vicious creatures from the Everfree forest he gained control of
>Blitz shook his head back and forth
>that couldn't happen
>...right?
>even though him and his friends has witnessed all kinds of weird things though...
>the kind mare spoke up
>"Maybe I should go see who that is."
>before she could get up, they heard the front door open
>and a loud, booming voice filled the small home
>"GUESS WHO'S HOME!"

>Rainbow Blitz was full on trembling in his chair
>that deep voice had struck to his core
>no way that was Butterscotch
>he couldn't be that loud if he wanted to
>"Ooh! Ooh! Could you please excuse me, Rainbow Blitz?"
>the motherly mare was bouncing up and down in her seat
"uh..."
>why was she asking him?
"...go ahead?"
>he could have swore she squeaked as she flew from her chair and headed for the hallway
>Wait, she was flying?
>That was the first time he had seen her fly
>then she stopped, hovering just in front of the doorway
>the source of the deep voice walked into the kitchen
>and that's when Blitz saw him
>the stallion was taller than Scotch's mom, who was already taller than him
>he was way bigger than Big Macarena, and she was the biggest pony he knew
>and he looked very strong. Not body-builder strong, but he was still built like a brick shithouse
>with a deep orange coat and short, bright pink hair that continued down into a thick, full, well-maintained beard
>Blitz sunk slightly in his chair at the sight of the pure alpha-male stallion before him
>"Hello dear, I missed you so much!!" the motherly mare said as she hugged his neck
>she seemed even more petite compared to him
>"Aw, I was only gone a few days." He said in a deep, yet soft tone
>his cheek getting peppered by light kisses
>"It was still too long" she replied as he hugged her back
>the huge stallion looked to the table and locked eyes with the shaking blue stallion
>for a moment, those eyes pierced Blitz's very soul
>he tried to swallow, but his mouth was dry
>the stallion took his arm from his wife, and pointed a hoof towards Blitz
>Scotch's dad furrowed his brow slightly and spoke up
>"Maybe I was gone too long. You've gone and moved another stallion in!"

>Rainbow Blitz's eyes started to dart around the room
>pure fear had set in
>he was hunting some way out of here
>there was a small window above the sink, but could he fit?
>he might have to
>"Dear, that's just one of Butterscotch's little friends."
>little?
>the stallion broke the hug with his wife and started walking towards Blitz
>...okay he did feel little now.
>"So, one of Scotchy's little friends, huh?"
>Blitz couldn't move
>that voice had frozen him in fear
>he had both of his front hooves between his legs and was squeezing his rear legs shut
>as the alpha stallion neared him, he sunk down further and shut his eyes
>Blitz almost felt like he was going to pee himself
>"Put 'em there, son."
>Blitz peeked out of one eye
>Scotch's dad was smiling and holding his hoof out towards him for a hoofshake
>"I'm gonna assume from the hair that you're Rainbow Blitz"
"um, y-ye... yes sir."
>the blue stallion slowly extended his hoof out
>and lightly shook his hoof
>"C'mon son, You gotta give a real hoofshake, like you mean it!"
>the huge stallion grabbed Blitz's hoof and shook his whole arm up and down a few times
>almost to the point of hurting him
>then Scotch's dad pulled Blitz close to him and patted him on the back a couple times
>that did kinda hurt
>"There, that's a real hoof shake." he said with a hearty laugh
>the mare wrapped her hooves around her husband's neck
>"Dear, don't be too rough with him."
>"I wasn't too rough. Anyway, he seems tough."
>Blitz was wincing in pain

>"Dear, dinner's already done, so I'll fix you a plate"
>the stallion smiled at his wife
>"What did my little honey pot make tonight?"
>"Butterscotch's favorite."
>the stallion clapped his hooves together
>"Alright!"
>the yellow mare sat a large plate of spaghetti in front of him
>"You are too good to me, honey. I love you"
>the mare giggled as he kissed her on the cheek
>then the stallion started chowing down
>Blitz stared in awe
>that was far more than he ate...
>and he was just putting it away
>the petite mare took a seat beside her husband
>she leaned her head against him
>"So dear, what happened on your business trip?"
>the huge stallion wiped his mouth then cleared his throat
>"So get this. We get to the job site in Manehattan, after flying all the way up there, they don't even have half of the materials I needed there."
>"Not delivered yet?"
>"No, not ordered yet."
>"They don't sound very organized."
>"They aren't. So I told them off and flew straight home. Didn't even stop"
>"Dear, you didn't..."
>"I told the foreman that if I came back up there next week and they weren't ready yet, I'd buck him halfway across the city."
>"You shouldn't have done that."
>"But I did. I think I scared him half to death."
>the mare giggled and playfully pushed against the stallion
>"And how are things at the orphanage, honey?"
>"Oh, it's alright. They loved the toys you got them, but..."
>"What is it honey?
>she had a concerned look on her face as she sighed
>"It's just, um, I think little Featherfall is going to have to have her surgery sooner rather than later..."
>the stallion lifted his hoof to her face
>"Can the orphanage cover it?"
>"They could, but it would wipe out their savings..."
>"Then we'll cover the majority of it."
>"But dear..."
>"I've got plenty in my savings, and I'm getting a bonus for this job."
>the large stallion looked over to Rainbow Blitz
>"But we'll talk about that later. We have company now"
>Blitz felt a huge knot growing in his stomach

>as the couple continued to talk to each other, with various cute pet names thrown about, the blue stallion just sat there staring forward
>he couldn't shake the feeling that he had done something terrible
>...
>maybe because he did
>"So where is Butterscotch?"
>the stallion's deep voice broke Blitz away from his thoughts
>"Oh, he told me that he was going to be a little bit late tonight. He was going to his friend's birthday party. Isn't that right, Rainbow Blitz?"
"I, uh, yes..."
>"But he should have been here by now..."
>the stallion hugged his wife
>"Honey, you know he's a grown stallion now. He can handle himself"
>"But he's still my little colt. I'll worry about him when he's away, just like how I worry about you."
>Blitz had broken into a cold sweat now
>he had to get out of here somehow
>Butterscotch's dad got up from the table and put his plate in the sink
>"C'mon. We can wait for him in the living room."
>the mare was already heading that way
>"Okay, dear. I call the comfy chair!"
>"Aw, not my chair..."
>the orange stallion turned his attention to Blitz
>"Come on, Blitz, we'll show you some of Scotchy's baby pictures. You'll get a kick out of those."
>he said with a chuckle
"o-okay."
>Blitz was following right behind the slowly walking stallion
>he was looking down at his hooves intensely
>the blue pegasus didn't dare look up
>Butterscotch's dad's tail was cropped short, and he didn't want to risk catching a glimpse of what equipment the stallion was packing
>Blitz already felt inadequate enough

>by the time the two stallions got to the living room, Butterscotch's mom had indeed taken command of the big comfy chair
>she was sprawled out in it, laying back
>that chair could easily seat two average size ponies
>"Well, Blitz, looks like me and you got to share the couch"
>the mare giggled as the two stallions got onto the small couch
>it was more like a slightly bigger loveseat
>Blitz nervously sat beside the stallion that towered over him
>the father cleared his throat
>"So Rainbow Blitz, Butterscotch has told us a lot about you."
"R-really?"
>"Yep. He's told us about all of his friends. He thinks highly of all of ya."
"oh, well, that's... good..."
>Blitz felt genuinely terrible now
>"So how's the farm?"
"huh?"
>"Dear, Applejack runs the farm."
>"Oh, okay. How's the Princesses then?"
"i, uh..."
>"Wrong one again, dear." the mare chuckled
>"Which one's that one, then."
>"Dusk. He's the Princess's student."
>"Okay then, What do you do Blitz?"
"I, uh, work for the weather team in Ponyville."
>"Okay then. So which one wanted to be a Wonderbolt?"
"that's me, sir"
>"Okay, okay. Did Scotch ever tell you that my grandpa was in the Wonderbolt Reserves?"
"um, no."
>"Honey, where's the family album at? I gotta show him that."
>the bundle of nerves that is now Rainbow Blitz sat on the couch between the huge stallion and his wife as they recounted old family stories and showed off embarrassing baby pictures of Butterscotch.
>he was too scared to move the entire time

>after a while, the motherly mare spoke up with concern in her voice
>"Dear, it's been nearly an hour since you got here, and Butterscotch still isn't here. I'm starting to really worry."
>Blitz started sweating again
>what if Scotch was lost in the Everfree?
>or still knocked out?
>with huge, hungry creatures sniffing his lifeless body...
>maybe he should just tell them and they all can go help him
>he looked up to the huge stallion
>Blitz decided instantly that telling them would be a bad idea
>he'd hate to see that gentle giant mad
>"Honey, He probably just went on home and fell asleep or something."
>"But that's not like him."
>the stallion chuckled
>"Hey, maybe that party got a little wild..."
>"Dear..."
>Blitz cleared his throat
"Well, uh, I need to be heading home soon or my mom will get worried too, I could stop by there..."
>"I can go with you, and then head back here after we find him." the stallion added
"well, I uh..."
>the worried mare piped up
>"That's a good idea, you two do that."
>well, there goes getting out of here alone
>"I'll go get my saddlebag just in case. Go on ahead, Rainbow Blitz. I'll catch up."
"y-yes sir."
>as Blitz headed for the door while trying to make a new plan, Butterscotch's mom stopped him right in front of the door
>"You be careful now, Rainbow Blitz."
"I will ma'am."
>"And do come back soon. I'll tell Butterscotch you're welcome over anytime."
"Okay."
>Blitz had his hoof on the doorknob
>maybe he could just bolt and hide out somewhere
>his pupils narrowed
>but what if they didn't find Scotch...
>no, that wouldn't happen
>he'll go get him sometime or something
>as the pegasus thought, he slowly opened the door
>something pushed against the door and it quickly flew open
>the mare screamed and the stallion quickly ran into the room
>Blitz could only stare in shock
>a yellow and pink pegasus who was beaten, bruised and bloody crumpled to the floor in the doorway

"Holy shit."
>Blitz didn't mean to say it out loud
>but he did
>he stared, unblinking, at Butterscotch's seemingly lifeless form on the floor in front of him
>the yellow pegasus's breath was quick and shallow
>his mane and coat were matted, coated in dirt, leaves and sticks
>his usually pristine hooves were caked in mud
>the corner of his mouth had a bit of dried blood on it
>one of his wings was unfolded, and barely twitching
>the sight made Rainbow Blitz feel sick to his stomach
>"B-Buttersco..." the mare said quietly, her voice shaking
>her eyes were wide in shock
>the house had grown completely silent
>the image of his friend on the floor was burning itself into Blitz's mind
>it seemed like an eternity before anypony moved
>then Blitz was shoved to the side with considerable force
>by the time he regained his balance, he could see Butterscotch's dad has flown to his son's side
>"Butterscotch!"
>the massive stallion said, almost whimpering
>he was holding his son's head in his hooves, gently petting his cheek
>"Speak to me, little buddy!"
>Scotch barely opened his mouth
>"dad... i-i'm..."
>the small yellow stallion took a shallow breath
>"i'm sorry..."

>"Sorry?" the large stallion said in a loud, shocked voice
>he sunk his head in a bit, tears in his eyes
>"Sorry for what?" he said quietly
>"i'm... late..."
>the father sniffed, his lip trembling
>he leaned down and lightly hugged his only son
>"It's fine, buddy. You're gonna be okay..."
>he barely choked out those last few words
>he looked up to see his wife on the other side of their son
>she had fetched a first aid kit and a rag
>"Butterscotch, dear, what happened?"
>"i...ow"
>he had tried to move, but he couldn't manage it
>"Dear, you need to be still."
>she began wiping his mouth
>Scotch's dad had tears streaming down his face
>"C'mon Scotch, you gotta tell us what happened to you."
>the injured stallion moaned slightly
>"Blitz..."
>"He's right here, honey."
>before Rainbow Blitz could process it, the motherly mare had pulled him beside her
>Butterscotch looked up to his rainbow maned friend
>his left eye was nearly closed, a nice black eye forming
>the pupil of his other eye was narrowed, shaking while focusing on Blitz
>"Blitz... b-blitz...di..."
>Scotch's voice trailed off as his eyes gently closed
"i'm sorry"

>the blue stallion placed his hoof on his friend's quickly rising and falling chest
>the poor yellow stallion on the ground was mumbling
>"Blitz be..."
>Rainbow Blitz's entire body was trembling
>it almost felt like something had his heart in a vice grip
"scotch..."
>every fiber of his being was telling him to run
>go
>get AWAY
>DO SOMETHING
>...
>but he couldn't
>he was frozen in place
>he just stared at his childhood friend
>in his terrible state of agony
>...that he caused
>"beat... me up..."
>Scotch said as his head seemed to roll to the side
>his father lightly shook him
>"...beat you up? Who beat you up?"
>Scotch's eye opened again, slightly
>he looked up to his father, his eyes pleading with him
"i did."

>the mother and father stared at Blitz
>"WHAT?"
>they seemed to say it in unison
>Scotch slowly leaned his head up
>"blitz... n..."
>he barely squeaked out
"He said..."
>Rainbow was sweating now
>he slowly started to lower to the floor, cowering
"he said..."
>the two ponies that seemed to tower above him stared at him
"he did... things..."
>the father frowned as his eyes narrowed
"with my mom..."
>the mother turned to him as she furrowed her brow, tears growing in the corners of her eyes
"and-d i..."
>he wanted to cover his head with his trembling hooves
>"How could you..."
>Butterscotch's dad said in a deep, serious tone
>"I invited you in and fed you..."
>the mare added before she started crying
>Blitz wasn't certain, but he thought he peed a little
>He was scared.
>VERY scared
>he whimpered like a small, frightened puppy
>the blue pegasus's eyes started to dart around
>...the door was still open
>should he try for it?
>or face Butterscotch's parents?
>he looked up to the mare crying
>the battered pegasus on the floor
>and the stallion staring him down
>his decision was made

>A rainbow streak shot out of the house into the clear night sky
>Rainbow Blitz was crying as the cool wind hit him
>internally, he was screaming and cursing at himself
>he was so stupid
>he shouldn't have beat up his best friend
>or tried some half-brained mother-fucking revenge scheme
>for now, he had no plan
>just keep flying straight
>eventually he'll think of something...
>anything...
>Blitz heard what could best be described as the sound of thunder behind him
>he snapped his eyes shut as he tried to push his wings to go faster
>but he was already at max speed
>then something violently grabbed him
>two hooves wrapping around his middle
>squeezing him tight
>too tight
>the blue pegasus screamed in fear and pain
>he felt a *pop*
>one of his wings had been folded in wrong
>he was quickly losing altitude
>and the added weight of the pony that had him wasn't helping
>he looked down at the quickly approaching ground
>all he could do is close his eyes and hope for the best

>Blitz heard the flapping of wings
>their descent had slowed somewhat, but not enough
>they hit the ground
>hard
>that pony still had a good grip on him
>the two ponies rolled for a bit before hitting a rose bush
>Blitz had flown free of his captor's grip, and bounced on the hard ground a few times
>he eventually rolled to a stop
>Rainbow Blitz laid there in a daze
>not sure of where he was
>he let out a pained moan
>all he knew now was that every limb of his hurt
>and one of his wings was in extreme pain
>then he heard a deep scream behind him
>a scream that chilled him to the bone
>he closed his eyes
>after a second, he heard hooves hit the ground beside him
>he hoped it was just his mind
>that hope was shattered as a hoof grabbed him and turned him onto his back
>Blitz hissed in pain
>then he felt a weight sit on top of him
>he opened his eyes and met the intense stare of a pair of teary, light orange eyes
>Butterscotch's mom was sitting on top of him
>her teeth gritted in unbridled rage
>she grabbed one of his shoulders and pulled him closer to her
>as she drew her other hoof back, the corners of Blitz's mouth curved ever so slightly into a small smile
>a thought had entered his mind
>he closed his eyes as her hoof shot towards his face
>...at least he did end up with Butterscotch's mom on top of him

-Epilogue-

>Blitz's eyes fluttered as he woke up
>he was cold
>and too sore to move
>he was laying on his back
>something was holding one of his wings out straight
>the light was too bright...
>the only noise he could hear was various beeps
>and it sounded like a mare was crying, far off
>his eyes eventually began to focus
>ceiling tiles...
>he looked down at himself
>a thin cover was draped over him
>wait...
>he was in a hospital bed
>this was the same one he was in last time...
>he moaned as he tried to get up
>bad idea
>that just made everything hurt
>he laid back down and rolled his head to his side
>he saw Butterscotch sitting in a hospital bed beside him

"Scotch..."
>he said the best he could
>"Oh! Um, good morning, Blitz"
>Butterscotch was sitting up in his own bed, a few feet away
>he had a tray of food in front of him, and was drinking from a juice box
>"um, How do you feel?"
>he wanted to tell his friend "Like shit." but his... everything hurt
"I... how did... get..."
>"How did you get here?"
>Blitz grunted in agreement
>"oh, My mom brought us both up here."
*grunt*
>"They, um, she had them do some tests."
>Blitz laid his head back down
>"The doctor should be back in here soon..."
>the sun was shining into Blitz's eyes
>wait, morning?
>he looked at his friend again
>he was covered in bandages and...
>an eye patch?
"Scotch... what's with... the patch?"

>"...oh."
>he hadn't hurt his friend too bad, had he?
"...im sorry, Scotch"
>he barely eked out
>Blitz felt that knot in his gut again
>along with soreness that seemed to fill his body
>"No, it's fine..."
>Blitz felt tears in his eyes
>"Mom put it on me, cause of the bad, um, black eye."
"oh"
>Blitz didn't care. tears were still starting to stream down his face
"Sorry i did that... to you Scotch..."
>Butterscotch looked over to his friend
>"It's okay. the doctor said I'm fine. No permanent damage..."
"That's... that's good..."
>Scotch smiled to him
"but why are you... in a bed?"
>"mom insisted on it."

"oh..."
>"I mean, even after she bandaged us up, she thought I should come up here anyway."
>Blitz closed his eyes as he silently cried
>"The breakfast was good, though. And that's nice..."
"my... i dont..."
>his jaw hurt too much for him to eat right now
>Scotch's mom must have had a hell of a right hoof
>"and, I'm sorry, but she ran out of Wonderbolt band-aids on me, so she had to use the flower ones on you."
>so that's what that tugging feeling was on his face...
>"also... um... I, uh, told them everything..."
>Butterscotch was tapping his hooves together
"about what..."
>"um... you know, me, at your house, and your mom..."
>Blitz sniffed
>"and the party, and Zecora finding me in the Everfree, and flying back home..."
"oh yeah..."
>Blitz barely choked out his reply
>there was a light tap of a hoof at the door to the room
>"Come in, please."
>A pretty red-maned mare in a doctor's coat walked into the room
>even though he could barely move, Blitz still tried to check her out
>...noice
>at least those parts of him still worked
>no matter how sore they were
>"Hello, Mr. Butterscotch, how was breakfast?"
>"oh, it was very good!"
>the mare smiled to him
>"Well, that's good to hear, cause I am getting hungry..."
>the doctor mare chuckled slightly
>"Oh, Miss?" Scotch spoke up "um, Blitz is awake."
>"That's great! I'll go-"
>all three ponies heard the wailing cry of a mare from the hallway

>A yellow coated mare flew into the hospital room and shot towards Blitz's bed
>she immediately wrapped her hooves around him and squeezed him in a hug
>"ohgoshohgosh I'm so sorry Rainbow Blitz can you ever forgive me i'm soooooo soorrrryy..."
>Butterscotch's mom was wailing into his chest
>she looked like she had been crying all night
"owwwww..."
>it was Blitz's only response
>"ma'am? MA'AM! please! He's hurt, you know"
>the doctor had her hooves up, pleading with the mare
>"i'm sorry..." the butter colored mom said as she let go of the blue stallion
>as Butterscotch's dad walked into the room, she shot to him and buried her face in his chest, sniffling
>"It's okay, honey..."
>he tried his best to console her
>Blitz noticed his own mom had walked in behind Scotch's dad
"Mom..."
>he moaned to her as she made her way towards him
>"It's okay Blitzie, mama's here."
>she started to pet his mane as the doctor spoke up
>"How ya doing, Rainbow Blitz?"
"i'm... doing."
>"We got you in your old room again. How about that?"
>Blitz chuckled softly at the mare
>"We might need to set up a Frequent Visitor's card for you. Three visits would equal a free ice cream. How's that sound?"
>Blitz laughed for a second before he started groaning from the soreness
>the doctor mare lifted up her clipboard
>"Ma'am, Blitz. I have some news for you...."

>Blitz held his breath in anticipation
>"Well..."
>he was crying now, no sense in trying to hide it...
>his poor wing was hurting intensely
>"You have a hairline fracture on one of your ribs..."
>that explained the soreness in his chest
>"And your wing was dislocated, but it's been reset, so it should heal right up. You're lucky, she could have broke it."
>Blitz let out a sigh of relief
>"So you're going to be out of commission for a little while, but you should be one-hundred percent soon enough."
>"OH thank goodness..." his mom sighed
>"And we got all of his tests back..."
>"Wait, tests?" his mom spoke up
>"Yes, ma'am." the doctor pointed a hoof towards Scotch's mom
>"She insisted that we test him for everything we could."
>Blitz's mom smiled as she looked over to the two ponies hugging, one consoling the other
"did i pass?"
>"Well, besides the rib, you have no other broken bones, your heart beat and blood pressure was fine, you're on no drugs, you have no deadly diseases, no sexually transmittable diseases..."
>Blitz started to blush
>"You're not concussed, his prostate is fine, not under the effect of poison joke..."
>the doctor was flipping through the sheets on the clipboard
>"You had pegasus pox as a foal, right?"
"yeah..."
>"Okay, His kidneys, liver, stomach and all other major organs are fine, no joints hurt, not carrying a clutch of changeling eggs, no other foreign objects, CT scan showed his brain is fine, blood's fine, and..."
>all ponies in the room were staring at the doctor
>"you're not pregnant."
"that's goo... wait, what?"
>"She insisted we did EVERY test we have."
"oh."
>"Yeah, besides the few abrasions, and the contusions on the face and... um, his groin, He's in near perfect health."

>the doctor mare smiled at Rainbow Blitz and his mother
>"So no flying for a bit, then just take it easy. But for now, I'll let you get some breakfast and some rest."
>then she took her leave
>Butterscotch's dad patted his hoof on his wife's back
>she was still crying into his chest
>"Well, I'm going to go and try to get her to eat something. Would you like us to bring you something, Miss?"
>"No, I'll join you two in a little bit." Blitz's mom said to him
>"Sounds good. You coming, Scotch?"
>"Yes, dad." he said while leaving his bed
"Scotch."
>the yellow stallion turned to his friend in the bed
>"um, yeah Blitz?"
"We still cool, dude?"
>Scotch seemed to just stare at his friend
>"...yeah, yeah. I forgive you."
"Thanks dude..."
>Rainbow Blitz held a hoof from beneath the covers
>Both ponies smiled to each other as Butterscotch bumped his hoof to Blitz's
"ow..."
>"I'm sorry, Blitz!"
"it's okay."
>he said through the pain
>Butterscotch quickly trotted to his parent's side as they entered the hall
>Blitz could hear Scotch's dad talking to him
>"That's my boy..."

>Blitz's mom stayed by his side after the rest of the ponies had left the room
>"Oh Blitzie..." his mom said as she pat him on his head
"Mom..."
>"Don't worry, momma's gonna take care of you."
>she gave her son a light hug
>"Even though you are gonna be in trouble..."
"Aw, but..."
>"But it can wait until after you get better..."
>they enjoyed their hug for a long time
"Mom?"
>"Hm?"
"You're not... mad at Butterscotch's mom, are you?"
>she had done a number on Blitz...
>"Nah. Me and her talked all night. She's an old friend."
"really?"
>"Yep. And I've seen her do worse to ponies that wronged her..."
>Blitz just sat in aching silence as he thought about that
>"But she did cry over what she did almost all night."
"Tell her I'm sorry."
>"I will."
>she broke the hug with her son
>"Well, honey, I'm gonna go grab a bite to eat, catch up with them, and then I'll be back."
"Take your time, mom. I'm not going too far."
>"You want something?"
"Nah."
>"I'll bring you something sweet, then."
>Blitz's mom went to leave
>but then she stopped and turned back to her son
>"Hey Blitzie?"
"Huh?"
>he noticed she had a pink tint to her face
>"ohmygosh, Did you see how BIG Butterscotch's dad is?"
