*Groan*
I woke to the feeling of pain throughout my entire body. I was in a bed, in a room with blinding white walls and a green-ish curtain to my left.In front of me was nurse Red Heart. "How are you feeling Scootaloo?"
"Like I was knocked in the head by a bat." I responded. She nodded while looking at the chart, "Understandable, but not quite.You were actually rammed into by another filly and she punched you into unconsciousness."
At that moment, what looked to be a doctor walked into the room. "Ahhh, it looks like you're awake," he said.
"So doctor," I ask, "Is there a possibility that I have a concussion or something?" Taking the chart from Red Heart, he flipped through the pages, he sighed and gave it back to Red Heart, "We can't tell by just reading about it, we have to go through the procedures to check. We'll just have to wait until they're ready." And at that moment, a wheelchair came into my room, "Which appears to be now. Red Heart, help Scootaloo into the chair." She nodded and pushed the chair to me and helped me onto it, the pain made her stop multiple times before I was actually able to get into it. As we moved out the door, I expected nothing to happened.
"Scootaloo's in the hospital?!" I yelled a Cheerilee, who cringed a little. "Calm down Rainbow Dash," she said while rubbing an ear, "she is completely fine."
"Right right." I don't want to see her hurt by a self-entitled spoiled brat. "Do you know if she is still open to visitors?"
"I think so, but I might be....." I didn't let her finished as I launched my self to the Squirt's resting hospital.
Things were slow in the hospital. Nurses and doctors all performing test on me to check my sores. Sometimes, I would have to go to a different room to do some tests. I was visited by both Rainbow and Autumn, who was secretly looking at Rainbow. I didn't mind it.
Pinkie came in later when the other two left. She gave me a "Get-Well-Cake". While slicing it, Pinkie uncovered what looked like an 'S'. There were more letters, but that was the only one she cut out completely. She gave me a piece and the taste was delicious. Too bad the nurses came in and stopped me from taking another bite.
Tomorrow, Nurse Red Heart told Scoots that she will be able to leave the next day at noon. How amazing.
Scootaloo slept for most of the day. Her dreams were filled with images of the factory and of Autumn.
Scootaloo sighed. After doing all she could in dream factory, she was bored. “Such a draft place for thy filly.” A voice said.
“Princess Luna? Wha-what are you doing here?”
“Well little Scootaloo, w-I periodically check the dreams of thy ponies who are not having nightmares because I could. And this place....” she looks around, “does not look like a good place.”
“Now come Scootaloo, let’s get out of here.” She spotted an open door. Scootaloo gulped. “Uhh Princess Luna, I wouldn’t.....” too late. Luna open the door and was blasted with the inside of the Rainbow Factory. Though Scootaloo couldn’t see it, Luna was confused, not angry. “Hmmm.... How curious.” Luna said. “How curious that a little filly is dreaming of this.”
“Well...”
“No need to explain thineself.” Luna interrupted. “You are a little young for a dream like this but whatever. I was young too when we-I killed my first pony.” Now Scootaloo was confused, “What do you mean?”
“Well....” Luna was interrupted by the pulsing of the world around them. “No time little one, for you are about to wake. And when you do... find a pony named Tabebuia Fire”
“Wha- but wait!”
All went completely dark.
“Who?” I yelled to nopony in particular, “Luna...” What did she mean by she was young when she killed her first pony? I know she was alive during the Dark Ages and wasn’t there to witness it’s end. She saw the inside of the factory, and she didn't even flinch. "And who is this Tabebuia Fire pony?" Whatever.
I was let out today. Heh. Right now, I am heading over to Autumn's, what else am I supposed to say about it? Nothing! When I arrived, I heard the yelling of both Autumn and Rainbow. A dispute of some kind. I opened the door to find them glowering at one another. "Uhhh what are you two doing?" I inquired.
They all looked over at me and promptly looked anywhere besides at each other. I sighed. "Come on. Now that I am back and not in a hospital we need to cover lost time."
"Got it!" They both saluted. Rainbow then flew out the nearby window while Autumn got to work with the machines.
10 Minutes Later
Autumn
"Hey Autumn, can I ask you something?" Stopping whatever I was doing, "Uhh yeah. What is it?"
"Do you know a pony named...Tabebuia Fire?"
"........?.....! W-wait w-who?”
