Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo looked at their grey friend, both of their mouths open. Before they said anything, Discord said something to the dreaming Apple Bloom.
"Look at them. Some friends they are. Couldn't even take a good prank without hurting the prankster."
Apple Bloom could now open her eyes, though she was stuck in a trance. She could not respond, only look at Discord blankly. Her entire body was tinged grey, including her eyes. She was still a blank flank, since this was her first prank to pull. Discord sighed.
"You still can't hear me, can you?" He looked at the entranced filly, sighing again with no answer. "Well, this is no fun." He snapped his fingers. Apple Bloom regained a bit of color, but not much. She could now respond.
"'Ah don't think this is fair," She said. Discord came right up to her face.
"Did I ever SAY it would be fair?" He asked, giving her an angry look. She shook her head.
"'Ah guess not, but you could at least let me have SOME say in this." Discord sighed.
"Okay, I'll make you another deal. In exchange for COMPLETE control over your entire body and relationships, you can speak to your friends one last time_"
"What about Apple Jack?" Apple Bloom interrupted, hoping she could somehow get out of this with her sister's help. Discord nodded. For her complete cooperation, he was willing to let her speak to as many ponies as she wanted to. Apple Bloom felt a beam of hope. She would explain everything to her sister, and she would help her. But wait, if 'Ah tell her, won't she get mad at me? She suddenly doubted her sister would help her, she would either think she was lying or hate her. The little filly sighed. She had no choice. She had to tell her sister.... She looked up at Discord. He snapped his fingers quickly.
Apple Bloom (Not discorded)
Apple Bloom opened her eyes, her head aching fiercely. She looked up at her two friends. They both had shocked expressions on their faces for some reason.... Her vision suddenly got really blurry, and she put a hoof on her head. Looking down at it, it was smeared with blood. Oh no.... How will 'Ah talk to Apple Jack now? That was her final thought. The last thing she heard was a ringing in her right ear, and Sweetie Belle saying,
"Apple Bloom? Are you okay?"
Sweetie Belle
Sweetie Belle maintained her shocked expression as she looked at the blood on the wall Apple Bloom had smashed her head into. She then watched her. As Apple Blooms eyes got really watery, she raised a hoof to her head, only to find it covered in blood. As her friend began to wobble, she got really worried and scared. She suddenly found herself shouting something at her.
"Apple Bloom? Are you okay?"
Scootaloo
Scootaloo watched the entire spectacle unfold, right down to Sweetie Belle's shouting. The only difference was that her heart had beat even faster than ever when she had noticed the blood on the wall, and on Apple Bloom's hoof. She began to hyperventilate, her fear taking over fully. She had to get out of there and into the fresh air. She tried to run, but her loyalty to Apple Bloom kept her there. She was frozen in fear, hyperventilating, and couldn't think straight. The moment Apple Bloom passed out and Sweetie Belle yelled, she sprinted out of the room. After she was out the door, she heard Sweetie Belle call after her.
"Scootaloo!" Scootaloo knew she would eventually have to come back, but she needed fresh air. She took several deep breaths, then came back in. Sweetie Belle sighed in relief.
"Oh, good. You're back." She was holding Apple Bloom when Scootaloo walked in, and she was now attempting to drag her out of the room. Scootaloo walked over, picking up Apple Bloom's other end when she was over there. She sighed, then finally said,
"C'mon. Vet's brhagh 'er touta 'ere." Her mouth had Apple Bloom's tail in it, and she was holding up her body with her front hooves. Sweetie Belle gave a small nod, then both ponies attempted to drag her away from the bloodstained wall.
