It was a crisp daybreak that I woke up to along with a few noises off in the distance.
I got up and took a look at my surroundings. Classic hospital setting but it was quite old fashioned.
I tried to recall the events of last night but all of it seemed surreal.
Before I could continue this train of thought the door handle turned and I braced for what I was going to see.
It was a pony and a shocked one at that. Looking at me like I had just did a backflip and nailed it.
The pony said no words and just left in a brisk pace probably to see the doctor.
I remember what happened and go to the bathroom that was at the side. It's door handle was strange
As I opened it up I heard the other door open and a bit of surprise too.
I looked in the mirror to confirm the events of last night. It was true I was missing an eye.
What I assumed was the nurse started talking in that gibberish again but I understood some of the words.
something along the line of "should be dead"
"Well that's just great" I muttered under my breath
The doctor looked at me like I was the strangest thing alive and I guess to them I was.
The doctor left the room to get someone and I was stuck with the nurse.
The nurse had no clue what to do or say. Not that it mattered.
The doctor brought in the purple pony that looked relived that I was standing
I had just realized it was the same pony that I saw when I collapsed
The purple pony approached me and said gibberish.
I looked at it confused and then it's horn lit up.
"Can you understand me" it asked reminding me of the night I came here
"Yes" I said not exactly comfortable
"Are you ok? You uh. Feel ok?" It asked with concern
"Somewhat but I feel strange"
"You should be dead" the doctor said hesitantly
"What happened. Why should I be dead?"
The doctor responded with "we did some scanning and it shows that you have severe internal bleeding. That and you have only half of one of your lungs"
I was speechless and if I was anywhere else I would be dead ten times over but... I'm not
My arm was not as broken as it was yesterday so I assumed they did a risky procedure.
They did not and I had then realized that I had that strange feeling again.
The purple one introduced herself " I am twilight sparkle"
What is with these names? WAIT WHAT?!
I couldn't say where I recognized the name from as I was sure that would absolutely destroy any hope of help
I responded with "I'm Noah" trying hard to hide that I just realized something massive
" how did you end up like this" the nurse said cutting in on the conversation
"I was at my home and suddenly a hole appeared and a pony too" I said reluctantly
"Uh do you need a description?" I asked
Twilight nodded and I began to start
" she had a dark orange coat and purple-ish hair, also wings and a horn, she also gave me a name: sugar"
This was clearly not a good thing as once I got to the wings and horn part they all looked at me in shock
"Y-you don't mean..." Twilight stuttered
I sigh and blurt out "yes I do mean an al-" I say before shutting my mouth
This had drawn a few looks but I got saved by my stomach growling and by wincing in pain
"How long have I been out?" I asked
"About half a week" the nurse said still recovering from the shock
"Uh serious things aside can I get some food?" I asked with the Pain growing.
The nurse said nothing and left the room not even asking what I eat.
The doctor left with her probably to get an X-ray or something.
Leaving only me and twilight who was for some reason eager to study me.
I sighed and picked up the pillow that was on the bed and then threw it at the wall as a short demonstration.
She nodded and took some mental notes as I walked around. It was the best way for me to think anyway.
After a bit of this the nurse returned with a floating plate of salad.
Had to remind myself that this would be the norm for a while so I rolled with it.
I sat down on the bed and my hunger would strike again. I didn't care anymore I was hungry.
I ate the salad and it was decent (for hospital food) and I realized that they had been watching me
"What?" I said with a soon full of salt
They realized they had been staring and both looked away with twilight blushing
I cleaned up myself and then asked the most relevant question of the time
"What now?"
The nurse shrugged and said "I really don't know"
"I'm uh kinda feeling cooped up in this room could I go outside and get some fresh air?" I suggested
The nurse said "I don't see why not and left the room motioning me to follow
Me and twilight left the room and I was finally feeling brave and ready for anything they could throw at me.
I WAS WRONG NOPE IN NO WAY READY.
As soon as we left the hospital I drew almost everyone's attention and then the social anxiety kicked in.
I was sweating heavily just by them looking at me and twilight knew I was in a panic
"Are you ok Noah?" She asked with concern
I nodded trying to focus on my breathing
ITS IN THEN OUT ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE.
Well it might as well be as I was just struggling to breathe air
I finally managed to find a balence by the time we made it to the corrner of a street
Funny name it was sugar cube corrner
Took me a moment to realize this was probably where sugar got her name from
I had at this point realized that we were near pinkie pies house
Nothing not even going back in time to fight the nazis in world war 2 could prepare me for the bouncing ball of energy that was pinkie
