	"Oh good you're awake," said a soft voice.

"Um where am I."

"You're at my cottage. I found you at the edge of the forest.

Instantly I recognized the voice. It was Fluttershy.

"How long was I out?"

"A few days"

"At least I had experienced pain and fainting before," I grumbled under my breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing."

"So what were you doing in the forest?"

Now she was getting more personal.

Going to Zecora's for a remedy," I replied. I wasn't lying. Technically, I was getting a brew. To fix all my problems. To fix my life.

"Well you could have asked me. I have remedies for ponies too. So what do you want"

"Don't worry about it right now."

"Anyways you have to stay here because of that broken wing."

I was surprised at Fluttershy. She was always just sweet, shy Pony. I've never seen her so outspoken. Well then again I was never with Fluttershy and her friends. Memories of what happened a couple days ago came back. I was hurt again. Was Fluttershy going to show me to her friends? What a loser I was? Tears flooded my eyes. I was a loser.

Pathetic.

Like I did a couple days ago, I cried. Hard.

"There there," A reassuring hoof patted my back.

"It'll be all right."
