Chapter one
"Pinkie i know you enjoy partying but you need to take a break whilst you recover or this is just going to get worse" Said the doctor as he inserted the needle into Pinkie Pie's arm.
"OWIE!" squirmed Pinkie as she squinted with pain resisting the urge to pull her hoof away and hold it.
The Doctor quickly squeezed the oozy liquid into Pinkie's arm and took the injection out, she saw the pain on Pinkie's face and didn't want to hurt the poor mare any more than she had already.
"Doctor..." Pinkie said wiping the sweat from her forehead "Doctor i feel" Pinkie started panting frantically as her vision became blurred and she felt her entire body go numb "Doctor i feel si..." before she could finish what she was saying she felt darkness take her as she collapsed to the floor.
"Help! I need an ambulance right now" Yelled the Doctor as she ran out of the room for help.
Chapter One
A four part story by PhaseJam
"AppleJack get over here ah need a hand" said Braeburn who was helping collect apples since Big Macintosh had become sick.
"Am on it" said Applejack taking one of the baskets off of Braeburn and placing it onto the wagon that was now overflowing with baskets of apples.
"Ah think we did a pretty darn good job for a mornings work" said Braeburn giving Applejack a high hoof.
"Thanks Braeburn ya really saved ma life by doing this" said Applejack as she watched Braeburn reverse into the harness attaching him to the wagon. He started trotting off back to the barn but as he got just over half way he started sweating he stopped just as an attempt to catch his breath but as he did he developed a cramp in his stomach that tightened so much that he collapsed, his heart started beating extremely quickly causing him to curl up in pain.
"Have you heard about all these ponies getting sick Twilight?" Twilight turned around after realising that the person was talking to her she was greeted by a warm smile but she sensed a hint of concern on RainbowDash's face.
"I know i shouldn't worry about stuff like this Twi but i'm really worried about ponies like Applejack, i hope they are safe because they are isolated but what if they are sick? It would take anypony at least ten minutes to get there" Said RainbowDash pacing back and forth and with every step her smile got less and less until her face just showed morbid fear.
"Rainbow don't worry about Applejack she can look after herself, we need to focus on making sure Ponyville doesn't get too bad. My place is here, protecting those that can't defend themselves and i can't abandon that duty, if you're really worried maybe you should go round and just check up quickly" Twilight said as she turned around and started trotting off towards the hospital.
"Urghhhh" Moaned Pinkie Pie as she regained conciseness" She opened her eyes slowly seeing two Doctors stood over her examining her eyes.
"You gave us quite the scare Miss Pie, you are very very sick and will need to stay in this hospital for at least two weeks as we have found traces of a strange variation of rabies in your blood stream, if you need anything here is Doctor Redburn he will try his best to answer any questions you may have" Explained the Doctor as he walked out and called a Nurse over.
"What is it Doctor?" said the Nurse with a smile as cheerful as ever on her face.
"Pinkies skin has become very pale and her eyes are getting more bloodshot with every minute that passes, my prediction is she wont last the night but i want somebody watching her every second of the day just incase she slips unconscious again" ordered the Doctor as he started trotting to his next patient.
"Sweetie Belle! Get out of bed you will be late for school and i wont be explaining myself to Cheerilee again, this is the third time this week!" yelled a very frustrated Rarity.
"Rarity.. Cheerilee won't mind she knows that i am sick" said Sweetie Belle putting on the most pathetic voice that she could.
"Nice try sweetheart but you can't fool me i saw you last night in the snack drawer feasting on that rubish!" said Rarity very proud that she had caught her little sister out.
"Awhh come on" said Sweetie Belle getting out of bed and whipping the tap water off of her forehead.
As Fluttershy was walking through town she saw this shady looking pony he caught her eye so she suspiciously approached him and said with a very quiet voice "um.. excuse me... i don't mean to bother you but uhh...... i noticed that i haven't seen you before..... and well..... are you new in town?" looking down at her hoofs that were messing up the dirt underneath her.
"You have no idea what is going on right now. Soon you will see the darkest side of everybody you know, you and all your friends will be dead by tonight so say your goodbyes" as he said that he walked off.
Fluttershy just stood there with her jaw dropped.
"Hmm looks like Twilight won't be much help, looks like i'm on my own" Rainbow shot off into the sky like a bullet and flew at a cruising speed towards Applejacks farm but as she got closer fear started to infect her mind.
After a few minutes of flying she started to smell something rancid, it was horrible, it overpowered her nostrils causing her to gag she started looking around for where the smell was coming from and quickly noticed that there was smoke coming from the barn. She threw herself into overdrive jetting towards the barn.
She saw Applejack on the balcony yelling and beaconing Rainbow over.
"Rainbow help they are everywhere!" yelled Applejack with pure fear in her voice.
Rainbow landed next to Applejack "AJ who's everywhere? why is the barn on fire? what in the name of Celestia is going on?" she said stunned by what she was hearing.
