Later that night, Scooteroll, Sweetie Belle, and Applejack began to settle in the small cabin. When Scooteroll told his friends that he wanted to leave, Sweetie Belle shook her head, and said "No. It's all settled. We leave tomorrow together." "But Discord will see my nose, and get us all." Scooteroll said as his nose flashed. "I've got to go alone." "Nonsense, sugarcube." Applejack said. "It's all for one, and one for all. Now let's get some shuteye." "But-." Scooteroll tried to say, but Sweetie Belle interrupted him, and said "It's all settled." She then turned the light off, and she and Applejack fell asleep. Poor Scooteroll couldn't get any sleep because he realized that he can't endanger his friends' lives anymore. So that night, he decided to strike out on his own. He quietly walked out the cabin, and ran off. The next morning, as he sailed on an ice boat, he said "Goodbye, Applejack. I hope you find lots of tinsel. Goodbye, Sweetie Belle. Whatever a dentist is, I hope that someday, you're the greatest." Time passed slowly, and Scooteroll existed as best he could. Discord kept him on the run, but once in a while, he would stop, and make a friend or two. But it wouldn't last long, and Scooteroll would be on his own. But during all that time, a strange and wonderful thing had happened. Scooteroll grew quite a bit, and he learned to fly well. All that growing up made him realize that you can't run away from your troubles. And pretty soon, he knew where he had to go: home."

Moments later, Scooteroll had arrived in Ponyville, and Button Mash noticed him as he said "You! I thought you were gone for good!" He turned to his friends, and said "Hey, look who's back: Old Neon Blank Flank!" He and his friends laughed as Scooteroll glared at them, and took off running to his home. He entered his home, and looked around as he said "Mom? Dad? I'm home!" He then heard a voice that said "They're gone, Scooteroll." He turned to see Princess Luna standing there as she said "They've been gone for months out looking for you." "Scootaloo?" Scooteroll asked. "She's gone too." Princess Luna said. "And I'm very worried. Hearth's Warming Eve is only two days off, and without your father, I'll never be able to get my sleigh off the ground." "Gone?" Scooteroll asked. "I'll find him, miss. I'll find them all." He was just about to leave when suddenly, the storm of storms hit, and only two days before Hearth's Warming Eve. The wind was blowing all over the place, and Scooteroll knew that he had to find his parents and Scootaloo right away, and he knew where he had to look: the cave of Discord. Moments later, he arrived at Discord's cave, and he looked up to see that the spirit of chaos was about to eat Scootaloo. Scooteroll ran up to Discord, and said "Put her down!" Discord looked down on him as he placed Scootaloo on the floor.

The spirit of chaos then tried to attack him, but Scooteroll got out of the way. Scooteroll then ran up to Discord, and kicked him many times, even though it didn't hurt him. Discord then took a rock pillar, and threw it at Scoorteroll, knocking him out cold. Discord roared out that sounded like laughter. Outside the cave Sweetie Belle and Applejack had arrived in Ponyville just as the storm hit. Ever since Scooteroll left them, they had been trying to find their friend. Sweetie Belle spotted the cave as she said "Hey, look!" As Applejack tried to get her dogs to stop mushing, she said "Whoa! Unmush, will you?!" They stopped nearby the entrance to the cave, and Sweetie Belle looked up at Applejack as she said "What do we do? We can't let Discord get ahold of them." Applejack thought for a minute, and she said "Ah got an idea. Listen." She whispered the plan into Sweetie Belle's ear, and she smiled as she said "Not Bad. It might work!" Inside the cave, Rainbow Blitz, Rainbow Dash, and Scootaloo looked at the fallen red-nosed pony as Scootaloo cried, and said "Why doesn't he get it over with?!" Scootaroll then woke up as he said "Mom? Dad? Scootaloo!" Outside the cave, Sweetie Belle looked at Applejack, and said "Are you sure we can get him out?" Applejack nodded, and said "Never knew the spirit of chaos yet who'd turn down a pork dinner for pony meat. Do your stuff!" Sweetie Belle cleared her throat, and said "Oink oink."

Applejack sighed, and said "Put some heart in it! That spirit of chaos is hungry!" Sweetie Bell kept making some oinking noise that was so loud that Discord was able to hear it from inside his cave. So he walked out of his cave, and Applejack pushed a snowbank onto his head, knocking him to the ground. "Terrible weather we've been having. Snow and ice." Applejack said as she pushed a rock onto Discord's head, knocking him out. "All right dentist, you take it from here." Sweetie Belle took out a teeth puller, and started pulling his teeth as Scooteroll said "It's Applejack!" "Ta-da!" Applejack said. "In the flesh!" "We're saved!" Scooteroll said. "Let's get out of here!" Rainbow Blitz said. "I'll light the way!" Scooteroll said as Discord recovered, and blocked the exit. Applejack glared, and said "Why, blast your chaos hide." Sweetie Belle showed up, and said "Don't let this big blowhard scare you anymore. Just walk right past him." Discord opened his mouth, and gasped in shock when he saw that his teeth was taken out. "Ah tell you, you're looking at a mighty humble bumble." Discord roared, and Applejack said "He's nothing without his chompers. Let me at him!" She ran up to Discord, and jumped on him as she said "Wahoo!" Applejack's dogs ran up to Discord, and jumped on him as they all fell over a cliff. "APPLEJACK!" Scooteroll and Sweetie Belle shouted at the same time. They looked down the cliff as Scooteroll said "She's gone! Oh, she's gone!" They were all very sad at the loss of their friend, but they realized that the best thing to get the mares back to Ponyville. After that, they went to the toyshop in Canterlot, and when everypony heard their story, they started to realize that they were a little hard on the misfists. They also realized that misfits have a place too. Even Princess Luna realized that she was wrong all along.
