“Looks like we're gonna need a back brace, and a hoof cast. I’ll be back in a few with the supplies.” A new nurse said to the six.
“Okay, thank you.” Replied Fluttershy. The shy pony looked to Twi and almost cried at the state of her. She was covered in gauze and tape, surrounded by dark purple-black bruises. “Oh, Twilight! I’m so, so sorry-y! I was too late! I’m very sorry!”
Twilight gave a very confused look, and once again levitated the cards. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? She rearranged the cards before Fluttershy had a chance to respond. WHAT HAPPENED? NOPONY TOLD ME.
“Well..” Fluttershy hesitated. “Do you remember the snair?”
YES. DID IT DO THIS?
“Yes-oh but it’s okay!” Fluttershy added quickly. “ After you, well, you know. After that, I used the stare on him and led it away. With the princess's help, I put her in Tartarus!” Fluttershy said, with growing confidence. She puffed out her chest in pride.
Just then, the nurse walked back in. “ Ok, I know it hurts, but I'm going to need you to sit up so I can properly apply the brace. I’ll help you, okay?”
YES. The nurse helped Twilight up slowly, and carefully. "Ahh!" Shouted Twilight, wincing from the pain.
"It's okay, that's to be expected." Said the nurse. She adjusted the brace and velcroed it tight. If you want to lay back down, it will hurt less now. Twilight nodded and layed back down. The nurse then slipped a sort of bottomless sock over her forehoof and then dipped a roll of plaster in a bowl of water. She then proceeded to wrap it around her hoof over the sock. It was warm, and Twilight found it comforting. She yawned, suddenly realizing how tired she was.
"If your tired, you should sleep. Right now you need as much rest as possible. Your friends will have to leave of course."
I AM VERY TIRED. CAN YOU GIRLS COME BACK TOMAROW.
"Sure Twi, we understand. We just want ya to get better. Right girls?" Said Applejack, talking for Twilight.
"Yep"
"Yeah"
"Of course"
"Uh-huh"
They all said in unison. "Ok then, good night Miss Sparkle." Said the nurse.
