A loud thud came from the patient room. Cut quickly run towards the door, Violet followed him after a second. It was Cookie, who has fallen out of her bed. It looked like she was waking. He leaned over her and said: "Don't worry, everything is going to be ok." Unfortunately she passed out after a few seconds. 

After he put her back on the bed he saw the stallion at the next bed starting to move. "Hey Red Scar." All response he got was a tired grunt of dissapproval. The green pony didn't really was in the mood to talk. But after being shaken for a while he was finally awake. Not really happy, but awake. His first response wasn't one of the most original ones. "Where, the bucking hell, am I?" It was an easy question and was answered quickly. Now the other side had its move. Cut spoke first. "So Red, this here is a detective, and we need you to tell us everything you remember from yesterday." Red rubbed his forehead for a while. He was trying to progress the mass of word that has fallen on him, which wasn't easy with a mind as clear as a storage room in a long forgotten museum. At least he didn't faint. Slowly, trying to not to forget the question, he started: "Well... Wait what! How late is it?! I was asleep the whole night! That hasn't happened in a long time." Violet interrupted: *Ekhem* "Last night." "Ah yes, so it was a normal night, maybe not as normal, now that I know someone knocked me down, but that doesn't matter. The night seemed normal at that time." *Ekhem* "Ok, ok. I'll do pure facts, no getting sidetracked. It was dark. Blues and I were guarding the corridor to when suddenly the lights went out. And it was like in those scary movies. They started flickering and went out one after another. In pairs, if I remember good. When the darkness came to us there was silence for a moment. We were at an end of the corridor, there were no more lights to go out. I was blinded a bit, was never good at seeing at dark, and then I felt someone very close to me, at first I thought it was Blues. Then I saw something red, felt a sting, and the next thing I remember is you two shaking the hell out of me, while I try to sleep." Red and Violet both looked accusingly at Cut. After a while and a whispered, I'm sorry, from the red  pony Scar started tubing his eyes. Then with an expression of panic on his face, he nearly shouted: "How the hell could I forget. WHERE THE BUCK IS BLUES!?!" Cut smiled. While Red was just like a smaller brother for Blues, the other way around was a bit more complicated. "Don't worry, he's in the bed next to you." Whithout the scared look on his face, the pony almost imideatly fell asleep.
