This piece was commissioned by GJTProductions, the request was to transform Scootaloo into a giant griffon creature with a lion’s mane and a scorpion tail. The client provided the following dialogue:

1. “When the alternative selves arrived from the future to warn about the wishing flower mistake, Scootaloo quickly noticed her future self was not able to fly and never would - a major factor in the Crusaders deciding to utilizing the wishing flower in the way they did. However, Scootaloo wasn’t quite prepared for how the transformation would go…”
2. “Unlike the other Crusaders, it would take a little bit of time for her new form to knit itself together from the magic energy reserve created for that purpose. She would grow drastically in size, the intended ‘alicorn-like’ combination of griffon, manticore and phoenix only slowly manifesting…”
3. “Scootaloo would feel the new form come in pieces, her recognition of its magic power and strength growing with each one: the head augmented with a unicorn horn to imitate the petrification ability of the cockatrice, the avian front half, the feline back half with a scorpion tail, and finally the wings - large, powerful and vividly colored.”
4. “When the transformation completed, Scootaloo was still a little disoriented by what she had become - not just from being much larger but all the new sensations she was feeling - but opening the newly formed wings and taking to the skies for the first time would affirm this was indeed an incredible new body, one that could certainly fight an alicorn to save the future of Equestria…”
