I'm very happy to have gotten some very nice reviews from everyone. But I'm afraid that I can't start on any of the adventures until next chapter. So I want you all to know that I am still accepting requests for what story the Cutie Mark Crusaders should start out in. Remember, it has to be from the list that I provided in the previous before I forget, here's a list of those in Ponyville who forgave Applebloom and her friends.

Twilight Sparkle

Spike

Owlolicious (Twilight's pet owl, and nocturnal assistant)

Fluttershy

Angel Bunny and the other critters Fluttershy takes care of.

Pinkie Pie

Gummy The Toothless Alligator.

Cup Cake (Mrs. Cake)

Carrot Cake (Mr. Cake. Pound and Pumpkin don't count, because they're still just foals and are easily forgiving.)

Zecora

A few members of Ponyville Hospital

So now, without further ado… ONWARD SPACE MONKEYS!

Adoption of The CMC!

---

"They...WHAT?!" Celestia asked shock and disbelief evident in her voice.

It has been a month since Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle were transferred to Canterlot Hospital, and things were starting to look up for the three sickly fillies. When Twilight and Fluttershy were asked how the CMC wound up in such a state in the first place, they were apprehensive about telling them. But both mares knew that the princess had the right to know what was going on. So after making sure that the kids were safe and sound in the hospital, Twilight explained everything that had happened. From the incident with 'Gabby Gums', to the CMC's treatment after they had apologized to everyone in Ponyville. Suffice to say, no one who was listening was pleased with the behavior of the ponies in Ponyville. The ponies that were with the princess at the time had various reactions.

Shining Armor looked like he wanted to gather a platoon of guards, and march right over to Ponyville so he could level it to the ground. Cadence on the other hoof was too busy crying her eyes out occasionally saying things like 'It's not fair', and 'They didn't deserve such treatment!'. Twilight's mother, Twilight Velvet was also crying her eyes out while her husband, Nightlight tried to comfort her even though he too was crying a little. Princess Celestia just stared in disbelief, while Luna was so mad, she looked like she's turn back into Nightmare Moon! Or at least use the Royal Canterlot Voice at maximum volume leveling every building within a five mile radius of her voice.

"I'm afraid that everything I've told you is true, Princess Celestia," said Twilight with her head down, and her ears lowered in submission. "I didn't want to believe it myself at first. but what will this do to the Elements of Harmony? And what will happen to Applebloom, and her friends?!"

Celestia just looked down in defeat. for once in her life, the ruler of the day didn't have a plan.

"THIS DOTH BE AN OUTRAGE!" Luna yelled in the Royal Canterlot Voice. it was so loud, she forced everypony within a five mile radius to cover their ears in pain.

"HAVE THEY NO SHAME IN TREATING CHILDREN IN SUCH A BARBARIC MANNER?! THY WILL SMITE THE PONIES OF PONYVILLE IN A SLOW AND PAINFUL-" Thankfully, Celestia stuffed a cookie into her sister's mouth to shut her up before everypony went deaf.

"I understand how you feel, Lulu, but we must not act recklessly. whether we like it or not, getting Applebloom and her friends back to perfect health is our top priority." Celestia said to her sister. Her expression soon turned serious though.

"But as for what will happen to the Elements of Harmony," said Celestia as she began to explain. "I'm afraid that since the elements of Loyalty, Generosity, and Honesty are no longer in harmony with their bearers, those elements will seek out new ponies to bear their power. Who those ponies are, and when this will happen I do not know at this point in time."

Everypony just stood their in silence as they absorbed the information provided by their princess. That's when Shining Armor got an idea.

(Brain: "Pinkie, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"

Pinkie: "I think so, Brain. But why would you want to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula?"

Brain: 0.0)

(Everyone who read that is now two percent dumber... My bad!)

"Wait a minute," said Shining Armor. "The three of them are orphans, right"

"Yes they are, but what does that have to do with anything, Shining?" Twilight asked her BBBFF. (Big Brother Best Friend Forever, for those of you who missed that episode.)

"Well, why don't you guys just adopt them? I mean, Twilight would be able to teach Sweetie Belle how to use her magic the right way, and even though Fluttershy hates flying, she'll be able to teach Scootaloo how to fly." Shining Armor explained. "But most importantly, all three of them will have the love and care of a family again."

Twilight was about to retort, but stopped to think about what her brother said. She always did want a foal of her own, and this would be a good way for her to help the kids.

Fluttershy however was a bit nervous about being a mother. She may have plenty of experience with baby animals, but being an actual mother was entirely new territory. Even if she did foal sit for the CMC before. But even so, she knew that these children needed the love and care of a mother to make it through these tough times. Both of them made their decision at that moment.

"Alright, I'll adopt Applebloom and Sweetie Belle. I'll give them the family they deserve." Twilight declared.

"And I will do the same for Scootaloo! I can't leave her alone for her whole life!" Fluttershy said before a scowl made its way to her face. "And if anypony tries to hurt so much as a hair on these fillies, so help me I'll give them... The Stare!"

"What's 'the stare'?" Cadence asked.

"You don't wanna know." Twilight said.

"For now though, we should go and take care of the paperwork for the adoption." Luna said having eaten the cookie that her sister so RUDELY stuffed in her mouth. She could've at least used a fried Oreo.

Everypony followed Luna to the palace where they would take care of the paperwork.

...One Hour Later...

Twilight and Fluttershy had just entered the hospital, and were on their way to the room that currently housed the crusaders. Getting the adoption forms filled out would've normally taken four hours, but it seems that this time the nobles were on their side, as the time needed to take care of the paperwork was sped up by three full hours. And now they were on their way to see the kids, and tell them the good news.

When they entered the hospital room, their hearts clenched at the sight before them. All three children were still lying in their hospital beds, but they at least looked a little better than a month ago. None of them were hooked up to breathing machines, however they still needed to be fed through I.V. drips. And all three of them had been given a small blood transfusion of Twilight and Fluttershy's blood. Although unlike all the other times Twilight and Fluttershy visited, Applebloom and her friends were awake this time.

"Hey kids," said Twilight. "Feeling any better?"

Applebloom looked at the mare with sad, borderline lifeless eyes. It was obvious that the damage done by the citizens of Ponyville was far more severe than they thought.

"I guess we're a bit better," said a depressed Applebloom. "I just wish that we still had a family to call our own..."

Tears started to form in the young earth pony's eyes. When her family disowned her, it was as if Applebloom's whole world had shattered around her. The same could be said for Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo. Even though she didn't have parents, Rainbow Dash was the closest thing to a family that Scootaloo had.

"Well, I understand that you all are probably not in the best of moods, but we need you to take a look at these." Fluttershy said giving a form to Scootaloo, while Twilight gave a form to Sweetie Belle and Applebloom.

They read over the papers, and couldn't believe their eyes. what the three fillies were holding were adoption papers. when they finished reading the documents, all three children looked up at their respective adoptive mothers. Both of whom had their forehooves open.

"Come here, and give your mothers a big hug." Twilight said.

The CMC couldn't take it any longer and just clung to their respective moms while crying in joy. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom now have a mother in Twilight Sparkle, and Scootaloo now has a mother in Fluttershy. Little did they know that this would spark the beginning of a series of great adventures in a certain book.

And done! Next chapter, we'll begin our adventures in the Disney universe! Remember, I'm still accepting requests for which story the CMC should start out in. And it must be from the list shown in the first chapter! That's the ONLY big requirement. And before anyone asks, NO! There is no FlutterTwi pairing in this story!
