The Other Alicorn

by The Corn


The Hospital

At first, I couldn't tell what was going on. I was laid in a hospital bed with the rest of the cutie mark crusaders staring back at me.

"She's awake! She's awake!" Cried Sweetie Belle.

"Oh thank goodness!" Apple Bloom chimed. "Ya were really worrying us! Ya kept saying things like 'Princess' and 'alicorn', you were even shouting 'Babs Seed'!"

"Oh." I sighed.

Then I looked around a little more. Yep, it was defiantly a hospital, no doubts about that. The beds, the curtains, the window, the lights; there was nothing in here to suggest that this wasn't a hospital, but how did I get here? I had to know!

"How did I even manage to get into hospital anyway? I can't remember a thing!"

The three of them looked at each other. Scootaloo sighed and began to clear her throat.

"A'hem. Well... Strangely enough it was actually Diamond Tiara who brought you here. We must have been so caught up arguing that we didn't even realise that you had gone. So in the end I just gave up and told them that it was the same pony I went to the sisterhooves social with last year, because they both know I went with Rainbow Dash, and she is the most awesome pony ever!" Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle glared at her. "Yeah, right. Well, when these two finally figured out who I was going with, we turned to you to ask who you were going with."

Sweetie Belle joined in.

"But you were GONE!"

Then Apple Bloom spoke up.

"We looked everywhere for ya, we really did! But it was too late, ya see, Dimond Tiara came over. We all knew that this was NOT the right time, but she seemed to know EXACTLY what was going on, it was like she was psychic!"

Sweetie Belle stuck her nose in the air and started to do a weird voice, which I'm guessing was supposed to be Diamond Tiara.

"Looking for your little alicorn BABY friend?! Well, too bad! I asked her to prove to me that she was really an alicorn, but she couldn't even do a simple task. All I asked was for her to use her magic to transport her to the top of a building and then fly back down again, easy! But then she got all panicky like 'Oh no, I'm not a REAL alicorn, I'm just a fake, I can't do this! I'm going to fail!' And then she just fell on the floor, clearly pretending to faint, but Silver Spoon just INSISTED that we took her to hospital!"

Sweetie Belle stopped, it was clear that she had only just realised that we were all staring at her. Her face went as red as a tomato.

"Well... Um... I think she said something like that."

Then it went really quiet, you could hear a pin drop. It was awkward, somepony had to say something, luckily, somepony did, Apple Bloom.

"Yeah, well, we hope that y'all okay, we're sorry for arguing like that, we really are, maybe if we hadn't of been arguing in the first place, ya wouldn't have felt the need to go running off like that, then you wouldn't have bumped into Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, and you wouldn't have felt pressured to do their stupid task, and..."

She looked at the others for support.

"I think what Apple Bloom is trying to say is that we're sorry." Said Scootaloo, putting her head down.

"It's okay." I told them. "Really."

Then a nurse walked in.

"Visiting time is over girls. Let her get some rest, she should be able to come home in the morning."

The three smiled and walked out. I waved a hoof at them as they went.

So, the pink pony's called Diamond Tiara, huh? Well, I wonder how she'll feel without her diamond tiara. There's nothing like sweet, sweet revenge!
