I consider black to be the absence of color, and white to be a blending of all the colors in the light spectrum. To bring it to simpler terms, if it's not a part of Roy G. Biv, (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet respectively) Or a shade/combination it isn't a color. So where does that leave gray? Gray can describe a lot of things, emotions, environment, etc; Yet, how can we describe gray? It's just there.. Soulless, without color, half black and half white in some kind of limbo.. Are you curious yet as to why I'm talking about colors? How about why I'm discussing the color gray? Well I'll tell you.. I'm surrounded by gray, a deep space like environment, nothing but gray for miles.. I like to live by a motto, "When the world around you is gray.. All you need is a little rainbow." I'm in desperate need of a rainbow right now.. More specifically I would really love to see a certain rainbow-maned pegasus right now. "Did she catch me? Am I dead? Is all this a sham?" For all I know it could've been a dream.. No! It couldn't have been! Right? "Oh man.. What if it WAS a dream except it was really a trick played on me by Discord?" No.. He's made of stone now.. "Hello?" My voice echoed throughout the.. Place, that proved I wasn't floating through a gray vacuum of space at least, "Yes I'm a bitch that likes bananas, please don't send me to the moon." "I'll guess this is either me in a coma.. Or I'm really dead." "I suppose if this is a coma it could be loosely tied to a lucid dream, let me gain a bit of a reality check." Alright.. If I'm in a coma and or dreaming, my Ipod will appear in my hooves." ... I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, sure enough, my Ipod was in hooves. "Damn touch screen.." I had to use my nose, but it worked out in the end, before I chose a song, I visualized a saddle bag on my back, and yes, when I turned my head, it was there. "Alright.. A, Alex s... Ultimate Sweetie Belle, I popped the earbuds into my ears, locked the Ipod's screen, and slid it into my saddle bag. I took a good look around, the gray reminded me of a blank canvas, ready to be turned into a master piece, usually shaped by emotions, and a good way to do that is with the help of music. The techno blasted in my head as I envisioned my surroundings warping and twisting into surges of color and wild shapes, as it went on, the world around me became beautiful, there was every color of the rainbow. "You did good Rustyloo, you did good." I took a look about the now rainbow splattered area, and noticed one gray spot left.. "What the..?" I reached out to touch it, just as my song ended, I lost my envisions, and my emotion, as my hoof met the surface, I received a pulse in my head, and a slight pounding began. I tried to touch it again, and with success I did, it felt cold, that gray spot.. "Scootaloo?" I could faintly hear someone.. Or somepony for that matter. "Hello? Who's there?!" "Scootaloo! Come on Squirt It's been three days, I just know you can wake up now!" "Rainbow Dash?!" I am in a coma.. Rather, I HAVE been, for three days now it seems. "Rainbow Dash! She has to wake up on her own!" That voice sounded a bit familiar. "Sorry Nurse Redheart.." So I'm in the hospital..? "O-oh.. I hope she walks up soon.." I know that shy voice anywhere! Fluttershys there too? "It'll be okay Flutters, but hey.. I'm sorry about that.. I shouldn't have taken her on that flight.." "Oh Rainbow.. It's not your fault, she just slipped, it was an accident, it's not like you wanted to intentionally harm her.. Right?" "Of course I wouldn't want to hurt her! She's my number one fan!" Excuse me while I go fan-girl.. "Oh.. I wish we could get a sign, a sign that she's okay." Here's my que! "Fluttershy! Rainbow! I'm fine! Can you hear me?!" Wait.. How in the hay do I expect them to hear me? "Oww!" The pounding in my head was back, but more intense and painful this time- *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* -Wha..? "That must be my heart moniter." *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* "That'll get annoying quick.. Hey, what's going on with my colors?" The color on the walls of my world were melting, and on top of it my vision was fading. "What's going on?!" My body began to ache, my vision turned to black, then grey, then my eyes shot open into a bright white.. *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* I was blinded by a sudden burst of light in my eyes, but then it gradually faded and I could get a look at my surroundings. "Ughgh.. R-rainbow? Fluttershy?" They were the first thing I saw, they were right next to my hospital bed, which was my first clue as to that I was in the hospital. "OH THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE AWAKE!" I was then tackled and lifted out of the bed into a bear like hug from Fluttershy. "N-nice to see you too.. A-air.. O-oxygen.." She instantly shot her eyes at me and set me back down. "I'm so sorry Scootaloo! I was just so happy to see that you're awake and-" "It's okay Fluttershy." Had to cut her off, who knows how long she could of gone one for.. "Hey Scoot! Glad you're awake! Are you okay?" Rainbow Dash gave me a very, very concerned look, as if she was purely guilty to think this was all her fault in the first place. "I'm fine.. I have a headache, and my body kinda hurts, but other then that I'm okay I guess." She brightened up at the sound of that. "That's great! I wouldn't of wanted to injure my number one fan!" Keep talking like that and I'll be your only fan.. At that moment Nurse Redheart walked in, looking a little content. "Miss Dash, I see you've stopped yelling- OH! You're awake Scootaloo, that's great, I have some questions for you.." "What kind of questions?" If my assumption if correct, these questions will be the end of me.. "Well, for one, how do you feel?" Okay that's an alright question I suppose. "I'm fine, I have a headache and a little body pain but I'm mostly okay." I feared the next question. "Alright, my next question.. It's about your parents, um.. We couldn't get in contact them, we need you to inform us on who they are." Oh no.. *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP*
