The ponies that looked over Pyxis were very nice. They said that he only had a couple of bruised ribs, a broken wing, and some minor cuts and bruises. With the right treatment he would be out within the hour. Though they did ask questions about Pyxis. Questions that he couldn't quite answer. One pony even asked about his crystals. Pyxis responded with a small smile and said "Oh these are just some stuff I found while travelling.". That wasn't a complete lie.
After a couple of minutes the door to his hospital room opened. A lavender colored mare walked inside along with Rainbow Dash. "Hi there. I'm Twilight Sparkle and this is Rainbow Dash. Pinkie Pie wanted us to stop by and see you. Your injuries aren't too bad are they?" Twilight said.
"No not really. The doctors said that my injuries weren't that bad. Two bruised ribs, a couple of cuts and bruises, and a broken wing.Though they said it would heal by the time I get home." Pyxis responded. Though he wished he hadn't said 'home' because he didn't really have a home to go to.
"Thats good to hear. I'm sorry for hitting you. I didn't look where I was going and I tried to slow down, but you know how that worked out." Rainbow Dash said.
"Eh I've had worse. I forgive you." Pyxis said. After a few minutes of talking a nurse came inside the room with a clipboard. She handed it over to Twilight who signed it using a quill. The nurse then proceed to take out a three pills from her saddle bags. "Here you go." the nurse said as she gave Twilight the pills.
"What are these for?" Twilight asked. "Their pain pills for Pyxis. Though his wing is healing later on he might experience a slight pain where his wing was broken." The nurse said. Twilight nodded as Pyxis got out of bed. "So can I go now?" he asked. Twilight nodded. The little colt ran outside to see all that he had missed while coming here. Rainbow Dash went so fast the whole world seemed like a blur to him. When he stepped outside he couldn't believe his eyes. There were ponies of multiple colors walking around doing their everyday routines. Though he saw this most of the time in Canterlot there was something different about this town. Everypony was happy and cheerful. The pure emotions that came from the town was amazing.
Pyxis was so wrapped up in everything he didn't notice that there was a trio of fillies walking passed him. A cream colored pony with bright red hair and a matching bow waved her hoof in his face. "Hello anypony at home?" she asked in a southern voice. Pyxis snapped out of his trance and looked at the filly who's face was just a few inches away from his own. "Oh. Hello." Pyxis said with a smile.
"Are ya'll okay? Ya've been starin' awfully hard." she said. Before Pyxis could reply a voice could be heard behind the filly.
"Yo Applebloom are you just gonna stand there all day. We got some crusading to do." the voice said.
Pyxis looked towards the source of the voice and found an orange colored pegasus filly with a purple mane. She was standing next to a scooter which was attached to a wagon. In the wagon was a white unicorn filly with a curly pink and purple mane. "Hey do ya think we can take this guy with us Scootaloo? He doesn't have a cutie mark either." Applebloom asked. The pegasus thought about it for a while before responding. "Is his parents okay with him coming with us?" Scootaloo asked.
Applebloom turned to Pyxis. "Are ya'lls parents okay if you come with us for a while?" she asked. Pyxis thought it over for a bit. It wouldn't be okay to lie the the fillies even if it was to have fun. Though on the other hoof he hasn't been able to interact with kids of his age in a long time. Pyxis decided. "Eh, as long as I'm back before dinner I'm good." he said. "Then what are we waitin for? Come on there is enough room in the old wagon for three ponies." Applebloom said. With that Applebloom and Pyxis got into the wagon. Scootaloo took a quick breath before flapping her wings at fast speeds. Before Pyxis knew it both him and the fillies were zooming off at brake neck pace.
"So let me introduce ya to the gang. As you probably heard, ah'm Applebloom. The pegasus driving us is the one and only Scootaloo." Applebloom said.
"You know it." Scootaloo yelled. Applebloom rolled her eyes.
"And this here is Sweetie Belle." she said as she pointed towards the unicorn. Sweetie Belle waved to greet Pyxis.
"Well I guess I should introduce myself now. I'm Pyxis." said Pyxis.
"Oh you mean like the constellation?" asked Sweetie Belle.
"Yes like the constellation." The four kid talked for a while before the made it to their destination.
"Okay what cutie mark are we going for now?" Sweetie Belle asked. Scootaloo pointed at the shop that was in front of them.
"Today we're going to get are cutie marks in.......... music!" she said with excitement.
"Wait didn't we already try that?" asked Applebloom.
"That time was with Vinyl Scratch. This time were going with Octavia. She's giving out free music lessons today only." Scootaloo replied. While the three argued about the music lessons Pyxis sat there listening to their conversation until a few minutes later.
"I have a question." Pyxis said loud enough to catch the three fillies' attention. "Whats a cutie mark?"
