Later that afternoon after their visit, Flittersoft and Screwball fly off into Screwy’s little corner of the Everfree Forest. There, Screwball makes their fun with her magic. She also magics them snacks such as chocolate milkshakes and super buttery popcorn. Flittersoft giggles as she listens to Screwball share her stories. After awhile, Screwball magics them a paper sailboat and they sail on the chocolate milk lake.
After awhile of that, the two sisters go on a fly to a separate part of the forest where they are greeted by castle ruins overgrown with vines. “What is this place?” Flittersoft inquires. “I’ve never been here before.”
“It’s the ruins of the Palace of the Two Sisters. It’s faded with time but it’s still here.”
“That’s really cool, mom’s told me stories about this place but I haven’t seen it in person until now,” says Flittersoft still in awe. The two head into the ruins now on hoof as they don’t want to disrupt anything.
Meanwhile back at the house, Fluttershy is greeted by Thunderlane, RD, and Soaren who are on their day off of practice. Fluttershy greets her husband with a kiss. “It’s good to see you,” she says with a smile.
“Yeah, and it’s nice to have the day off of practice,” chuckles Thunderlane. “Now where’s my daughter?”
“She’s out in the town with her sister,” responds Fluttershy bluntly. “I didn’t think you’d mind.”
“And I don’t, I was just curious,” responds Thunderlane. He grabs food and canned cider out of the fridge for himself and his teammates with his wings. They then go and lounge on the couch in the other room. A few minutes later, Fluttershy hears crying as Dinky dashes through her door.
“Dinky, Dinky, what’s wrong?” Asks Fluttershy concerned. “Did something happen to your mom?”
“Yes,” sniffles the young unicorn mare. “She’s fallen, dislocated her hip and wing.”
“Can you take me to her?” Inquires Fluttershy. “And have you called the doctor?”
“Yes, and the medical doctor, yeah, he’s on his way,” responds Dinky. Dinky and Fluttershy head towards Dinky’s house. As they’re running, a portal opens in front of them and Doctor Whooves hops out. “Dad!” Exclaims Dinky. “You’re back!”
“Well, it finally reached me about Derpy in the time stream. What happened? Is something wrong?”
“Yeah, mom is blind and she just fell and dislocated and possibly broke her hip and wing,” responds Dinky, “you’ve missed a lot.”
A few minutes later, the three arrive at the house where they’re joined fifteen minutes later by the doctor and pony ambulance. They load up Derpy with Doc at her side and take them to the hospital. There, Derpy is examined and x-rayed and the bones are indeed confirmed to be broken. They’re immediately bandaged and Derpy is strung up in casts. The entire time, Doc never leaves her side and a few minutes later, they’re joined by Fluttershy. Dinky transports into the Everfree forest first and grabs Screwy and Flittersoft before transporting them to the hospital. Once there, the three enter Derpy’s room. Dinky runs over to her mom while Flittersoft and Screwy look on in shock. “What happened?” Inquire the confused young mares.
“Mom fell,” says Dinky, “broke her hip and wing.”
A few minutes later, the young mares are ushered out so the adults can talk alone with the doctor. None of them ever imagined this is how the day would go and they absolutely hate it, especially where poor Derpy is concerned.
