			Twilight, Starlight, and Rainbow Dash barged into the castle. "So, how's Spike, is he okay, did he get some type of disease?", Twilight asked.

"I know about a lot of diseases.", Starlight said. "What if it's a really bad one and he dies from it."

"I'm not sure if it's a really bad one or not.", Rainbow Dash said. "But, no matter what kind of sickness that's affecting Spike, I'm sure he doesn't have cancer nor he's got a disease. Right now, he's in his room, lets go check on him."

The three friends raced through the hallway, straight into Spike's room where he was coughing with a tissue against his mouth. "Starlight, Twilight, thanks for coming to help me.", he said.

"I am glad we're here for you, Spike.", Twilight said. "And take the tissue out of your mouth."

Spike removed the tissue from his mouth, there was blood dripping from his bottom lip and it was smudged onto the tissue.

"Oh dear, there's blood on your mouth.", Twilight panicked. She grabbed another tissue with her magic and tried to clean the blood off.

"You said it wasn't a cancer problem.", Starlight said.

"I did.", Rainbow Dash said. "When I left to get you guys, he was coughing, I wasn't expecting blood to come out."

"Oh, I just hope it's not a cancer problem.", Twilight said.

"If he does, I could be wrong.", Rainbow Dash said.

Twilight was about to set the tissue aside, when she paused as she saw three tissues that were already used and had blood on them. She put the tissue down any way. "Well, that's just over dramatic.", she said. "You're coughing up blood. You need chest x-ray."

"Can you please leave me be, Twilight?", Spike asked nicely.

"I'm not leaving you if you're coughing up blood like this.", Twilight said.

"We should get a doctor.", Starlight said.

"I messaged Princess Celestia, saying that I need a doctor.", Spike said. "She said, she'll send one right away."

"Yeah, but you're coughing up so much blood, she might send a doctor from Canterlot, it'll never get here in time.", Twilight said.

"I just need to be patient, alright?!", Spike snapped. He took a deep breath, he didn't want to snap at Twilight again. "Just get out, let me rest."

"You're coughing up blood, Spike.", Twilight said. "I'm not leaving, nor taking Starlight with me."

"Just leave.", Spike begged. "Please, Twilight."

"We're not going anywhere.", Starlight said.

"Please, girls.", Spike begged. "Rainbow Dash, can you get them out of here, please? I need some rest."

Rainbow Dash didn't answer. She wanted to say something, but Twilight said something before she could.

"We're staying here.", Twilight said.

"Twilight, do I have to get on my hands and knees and beg you?", Spike asked. "I'm doing what the doctor says."
