Scootaloo manages to catch Rose Blossom before she hits the ground, but still being a newbie flier she isn’t able to make the sharp turn upwards. As her wings cramp up and she realizes she’s going to crash she flips onto her back to save the baby from harm.
Skidding along the ground, her back hurting and her wings on fire she still can’t help but smile as she sees the happy foal, giggling and unhurt, feeling a sense of joy from knowing she just saved a life.
