The door to the room clicked open, a rainbow maned pegasus stepping through it slowly. Closing it , her eyes ran over the small room that was barely adorned with anything. A single window was on the far wall, and the bed in the center left only enough room for the equipment that Twilight needed to be on life support,the Doctor, and her with a little bit of room so they weren’t all up against each other.
Haywick looked up from the clipboard, studying her for a few minutes over his glasses before hooking the clipboard back on the bed.
“Miss Dash. I assume you're here to say goodbye?” He asked softly, his eyes kind.
Rainbow tensed for a moment, before shaking her head. “No... Not to say goodbye, Doc. She’ll pull through.” She said, determination in her voice.
Haywick nodded, casting a glance at the prone body of the undisguised Twilight. She was breathing shallowly through a breathing mask, IV’s going into her arms. The gentle beeping of the equipment was one of the only indicators that she still lived.
He nodded again, shortly this time. “Maybe that’s what she needs.” He said, quietly to himself, before looking back at Dash. “Okay, Miss Dash. I need to lay down some ground rules for you and your friends. First off, only one visitor at a time.”
Dash nodded. “Okay.”
He continued. “Second off, if anything changes, anything at all, you get the guard, and he’ll come find me.”
Dash nodded again.
The doctor looked at the monitors again, before nodding to himself. “Okay, Mrs. Dash. Be careful.” He said, before hanging the clipboard on the end of the bed, and walking out slowly.
Dash watched him go, the door swinging shut behind him and clicking shut.
She sighed softly, before she turned to Twilight, her eyes sad.
“Oh, Twilight... what are we going to do with you?” She asked, walking over towards the bed, closing the short distance in a few steps.
“First... you’re gone in the middle of the night.” She said, her eyes closing and remembering the night.
“Then, we find out the changelings were involved... And then, we had to wait for a whole month!” She said, her eyes snapping open, a slight wetness apparent.”
Dash lay her forearm next to Twilight’s, leaning on the bed as she continued. “And then.. we find you, like this.” She whispered, her voice dropped to a nearly inaudible whisper. “If... if we hadn’t waited this long, you would’ve been okay!”
“This is my fault...” She said, her head hitting the mattress without any real force behind it.
She stayed like that for a few moments, before she lifted her head up again, a determined look in her eyes.
“But, we’ll fix this! You’re going to wake up, and we’ll fix this, just like we always do!” She said, her voice filled with hope and a slight edge of desperation.
“You’re Twilight Sparkle, the best damn unicorn around at figuring stuff out. I’m sure that in that overly huge library a bookworm like you could find an answer to this!” She said, grinning softly.
“But... We’ll fix this.” She said, her head drooping down again.
“Just like we always do.”
She stayed like that, her head resting on the mattress again, just remembering.
She stayed like that for about five minutes, before a knock came at the door and she jerked her head up, startled for a few seconds.
It opened up to reveal a very familiar group of ponies standing outside of it. Dash’s face lit up and she run out of the small room and into the larger one, giving the closest one of her friends a hug.
“Guys! Oh my gosh, I haven’t seen you guys in forever!” She said, smiling widely, her sadness temporarily forgotten.
AJ chuckled slightly before she straightened her hat. Dash let go of her orange friend, smiling sheepishly. “Well, we’re happy to see ya too, sugarcube.” She said, smiling softly. “It was quite boring around Ponyville without ya there, pranking.”
Pinkie Pie looked over, letting out a soft yell of indignation. “Hey! I tried!”
Rarity rolled her eyes. “Pinkie, most of the pranks revolved around pies to the face. You must vary it up a bit, as it were.” She said, sighing. “Now... I know that we’re all happy to see our friend safe and alive, but I can’t help but feel we have another one that needs our attention even more.” She said, bringing the mood down once most of the ponies were brought back to reality.
Fluttershy nodded. “Y-Yes...” She said, frowning. “We... We need to be strong, for Twilight.” She said, mostly to herself.
Dash looked around at her friends, happy to finally be back where she could actually talk to them, and be with them, but the reunion was bittersweet.
“The Doc said that only one visitor at a time is allowed, so most of us are going to have to wait out here.” She said. “And, we need to be careful. Doc said that if anything changes, we need to alert the guard, so they can tell him.”
The four nodded to Dash’s instructions. “Of course, Dash.” Pinkie said, her normally vibrant color slightly dulled.
“I was thinking, that...” Dash started off, hesitating before finishing her thought. “If Rarity goes first, we can go to the library and try to look up anything that could help. The doctors may have given up, but I’m not!”
Rarity nods. “I would be willing to do that, for Twilight.” She said, looking towards the others with a questioning look.
AJ nodded, as did the other two. “It’s a good a plan as any, Ah suppose.” She admitted. “And once one of us others have finished, we can go grab Spike. He needs to be here as well.”
Dash nods. “Okay then, it’s settled. I’ll meet you in the library, Rarity.” Dash said, taking off out the door towards the library.
The others looked after her, some still nodding as they watched her go.
“Well, dears, I’ll take my turn to...” Rarity started before trailing off, going into the small room, the handle glowing a light blue as it closed softly.
It's okay, we don't hate you

Plez. i ned hep.
4740474 That's what I'm here for 'strikes superman pose'
Send it my direction, I'll help anyway I can
I don't hate you, I just want you to write more. :P I'm wondering where you'll go from here though and please don't drag this out too long unless you plan on ending it soon after she's awake, although that would leave some plot threads too loose.
OMC I had finally caught up and see an update... I was so excited... was being the key word. NOW I"M ECSTATIC. I know I have to wait again for the next chapter but some stories are worth the wait. I wonder if the rest of the girl are going to find out what to do to help Twi. I really wonder what that meanie Queenie is up to. Cant wait... love it

Congrats LBBFF ^^
it LIIIIIIIVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEESSSSSSSS
Let me guess. This is a situation where all five of them have to be in the room at the same time for Twilight to "wake up", but the doc's orders is preventing that from happening. I guess I'll get my answer (aprox.) four chapters and (aprox.) nine months from now.
I agree with the starry cat
Twilight needs her friends.
Swirling in darkness,
forever in turmoil.
Such a bond shan't break
yet so will you.
Awaiting further releases.
oh yeah, this story...
i''m still angry at you because you promised this chapter to be out new years.
and apparently you forgot what pinkie says about breaking a promise.
Very good. Continue!!
Are those last two lines from editors or part of the story?

Yeah... Gdoc does that occasionally...
I not changed my mind. This was a very stupid plot added only to force the tension.
No, it was Celestia's fault who not only did nothing to solve the problem, who just sit on her throne while others went to rescue misison, and who in the end instead of helping, blasted her student to death. Once again, I think it is forced and stupid.
Usually when character screw up, at least he should do something to fix the problem to not make them unlikeable. Celestia not only did nothing to help, but ruined everything for a very poor forced reasons. Unless she don't do something to help her student, she is very unlikeable in this story for me.
( The same was with Pinkie Pie in Season 4 episode 14, Filly Vanilly, Pinkie Pie was very unlikeable, her every apperance was only to make problem bigger and to make Fluttershy cry, and what she do to help, nothing, and it kind of ruined the episode for many. SImilar situation is with Celestia in here.)
If not for the premise of the story, I would most likely have given up reading by this point from the sheer lack of proper sentence structure and grammatical mistakes.
