Adventure 3: Kindness and Healing

Fluttershy was very excited that there was a new human here, and on top of it one who was experienced in medical care from another dimension!
Fluttershy: So, what kind of a doctor are you?
Medic: Well, I'm a field medic, mostly. I heal my teammates in combat when they get injured.
Fluttershy: Oh my. Well, like I said, some of my birds are sick. Do you think you can help them?
Medic: I could take a look, diagnose the problem and tell you how to make them better, or if necessary take care of it myself.
Fluttershy: Oh why thank you so very much. Oh, and, um, I couldn't help but, um, notice that you talk differently then Ellis. And I was wondering what that was about, if you don't mind me asking.
Medic: Well, what did he sound like?
Fluttershy: He talked in a very strange way, shortening words with a voice somewhat like Apple Jack's.
Medic: I suppose that your friend Ellis was from the southern United States, whereas I am from a place called Germany.
Fluttershy: What's the difference?
Medic: Well, America is divided up into fifty states with multiple cities, whereas Germany is just one country with 13 sections. Unfortunately, Germany's history is not a pretty one, but we've cleaned up quite a bit, including advancements in medical technology.
Fluttershy: I see. What happened in Germany that was so horrible?
Medic: Well, back in the 1930's and 40's, there was a very bad man who hated a large group of people so much, he planned to kill each and every one of them.
Fluttershy was completely unprepared for this, and fainted.
Medic: Whoops. Well, it seems like that cottage of her's is just up the road...
Medic lifted Fluttershy off the ground and carried her like a baby when he noticed something he hadn't noticed yet. Her wings.
Medic: Wings? I didn't notice those. Oh, the possibilities of experiments that can be made in this world!
Slowly, Fluttershy's eyes opened, and Medic put her down.
Fluttershy: Oh, I'm sorry, I just wasn't expecting something that awful. But who could be so horrible as to want to destroy an entire group of people? And was he successful?
Medic: Er...
Fluttershy: Fluttershy.
Medic: Fluttershy. This man was downright insane. He did manage to become the leader of Germany and was one-third of the way through with his plan before his enemies were closing in on him and he killed himself.
Unable to take anything from this sentence caused Fluttershy to faint again.
Medic: Uh. A sensitive one she is.
So, passed out again, Medic carried Fluttershy.
Medic: I should probably be careful as to what I say next.
Fluttershy: Not again. I'm really sorry.
Medic: That's alright, some people from where I'm from can't handle this either.
Fluttershy: So how did this bad man come to power?
Medic: Some crazy things can happen when a country suffers a loss of a major world war. This man helped his people find someone to blame the loss and various depressions on.
Fluttershy: I'm so scared right now. Oh, there's my cottage.
Medic: Well, I hope you enjoyed this little history lesson, because you're about to get a lesson in the field of medicine. Let me see your birds.
Fluttershy: Follow me.
Medic followed Fluttershy to a room towards the back, full of birds asleep in beds.
Fluttershy: I've never seen anything like it. Nothing I try works.
Medic: Do you know what could have caused it? Rule one of medicine: the cause is the first step to the cure.
Fluttershy: Well, my chicken's best friend, the rooster, came down with it shortly after some fillies known as the Cutie Mark Crusaders rescued it from the Everfree forest.
Medic: Show me this forest.
Fluttershy: Well, all things considered, the Everfree forest is a walk into town now.
Medic followed Fluttershy into the entrance of the Everfree forest.
Medic: Amazing. This forest seems very strange.
Fluttershy: A lot of ponies say it's different then the rest of Equestria.
Medic: I see. Did these... what were they again?
Fluttershy: I'll explain it later. Anyway, we found him frozen by a cockatrice in the forest. Nothing seemed out of place, at least not until a month ago.
Medic: I see. Well, we've seen enough. Let's return to the cottage.
After returning to the cottage...
Medic: You may want to wait outside. I've got some important tests to perform.
Fluttershy: But, I'm very good at tests. What kind of test?
Medic: Not the kind of test you're thinking. These tests should not be viewed by the faint of heart, and from what I've seen, you're in no condition to see them.
Fluttershy: Oh, okay. I'll wait.
Medic shut the door and began to work, with several strange tools. Fluttershy only caught flashes and glimpses of what was going on inside that room. And almost everything she saw she got sick at the sight of, or momentarily passed out, only to get up momentarily, and faint at the sight of something else. After about two hours of fainting, Medic finally emerged from the room to she Fluttershy half passed out on the floor, drooling and twitching.
Medic: Oh my. I warned you, little one.
Fluttershy: Uhhh.... Huh? Wha, what happened?
Medic: Well, I've determined the problem. Something in the cockatrice triggered a virus stored in the wings to escape to the rest of the body and slowly kill them over the course of about five years.
At the sound of this, Fluttershy fainted again.
Medic: Hopefully my comrades don't have to deal with this much passing out.
After Fluttershy woke up...
Fluttershy: Oh... So how do we get a cure?
Medic: According to my computer, I need something called... Alicorn nectar. Any idea where I could get some?
Fluttershy: I'll get Twilight to write a letter.







Author's Note: So yeah. Really long chapter. Really long chapter. Longer then I was hoping but good nonetheless. I got a complaint for short chapters so there. Hope you like it, working on the next few chapters over the next few days will hopefully finish by this time next week. This chapter is to all my great fans who waited ever so "paitient"ly for me to begin work on this.
