>It didn't take long after you both got back to have everything set up in her new room.
-
>The delivery guys had everything hauled in and set up quite quickly.
-
>And much to the orange-little’s complaining she helped get everything else done like the cleaning.
-
>Which brought us to this moment.
-
>You and the little devil were having another argument.
-
>Right there in front of your house.
-
>”I want to learn to fly.”
-
“Scootaloo, I don’t think that a good idea.”
-
>”Come on, I’m sure Flutteshy can teach me if we ask her.”
-
“Fluttershy is at work, besides don’t you think it’s a little rude to just bother her like that.”
-
>”Fine, then just let me practice here.”
-
“Yeah, not happening, you almost broke your neck in the living room earlier.”
-
“What makes you think that I would let you do that out here?”
-
>”Stop telling me I can’t, I know I can fly if try harder.”
-
“Scoots, please stop. You’re going to hurt yourself if you keep pushing like this.”
-
>The pony stared at you defiantly.
-
>Deep down you just didn’t want to say it.
-
>Her wings were useless.
-
>They bound them long ago and impeded their growth.
-
>She was never going to fly.
-
>But as much as you knew the truth you weren’t ever going to say it directly.
-
>Not even you were that much of an asshole.
-
>Well you might be to others, but not her.
-
“Please, let’s go back inside. We can talk this over there.”
-
>You motioned back towards your abode.
-
>”No! I can fly and I’m going to prove it to you, just you watch!”
-
>With that outburst, Scootaloo took off towards the street.
-
>Without even thinking you gave chase.
-
“Scoots, come back you’re going to hurt yourself!”
-
>You yelled.
-
>But she only ignored you.
-
>And ran straight into the middle of the street.
-
>An instant was all it took.
-
>A car’s horn.
-
>The squealing of tires as the cars brakes were slammed down.
-
>And the sickening sound of a living being hit by a moving car.
-
>God no, please no.
-
>Don’t let it be what you think it is.
-
>Without any concern for yourself you leapt into the street.
-
>She’s okay, maybe it’s not as bad as you’re thinking Anon.
-
>She just got a little bump and she’s fine.
-
>There laying in the middle of the road was Scootaloo.
-
>Rushing over you looked her over.
-
>Please be okay.
-
>You were almost about to move her when common sense kicked in.
-
>If she had internal damage moving someone could do more harm than good.
-
>”I’m sorry she just came out of nowhere.”
-
>The voice behind you belonged to the driver.
-
>But he didn’t matter, nothing else at the moment mattered except her.
-
>I have to get her to some sort of help.
-
>Fucking act Anon.
-
“Just get me a ride to an veternaniray clinic.”
-
>As gingerly as you possibly could you picked up Scootaloo.
-
>It was a calculated risk, either get her to some help or wait here.
-
>You sure as hell weren’t going to wait around.
-
>Walking over to the car you got in passenger side as the guy closed the door and got behind the wheel.
-
>”Man, I’m sorry. But it was an accident.”
-
“I’m not mad bud, just get me to an vet now.”
-
>With that you were off.
-
>Scootaloo was breathing, but it was strained.
-
>Just hang in there.
-
>You knew that the closest clinic was only a few minutes away, but the drive itself felt like it took hours.
-
>The guy sped up to the front and onto the curb right in front of the door.
-
>At least he was trying to help.
-
>Moments later you were inside and yelling.
-
“I need some help, she got hit by a car.”
-
>Like a swarm several people in scrubs rushed and began the organized chaos that is emergency room procedures.
-
>A small gurney was brought out for you to lay her down on.
-
>As she was wheeled off you couldn’t help but feel despair.
-
>But she was going to be fine.
-
>She was here, these people were going to help her and tomorrow you’d both be laughing about it while eating some ice cream.
-
>Just calm down, having a panic attack isn’t going to make this situation any better.
-
>Sitting down in one of the chairs in the waiting room you let the chain of events roll through your head.
-
>Why didn’t you stop her?
-
>Maybe if you yelled at her to stop sooner.
-
>Maybe if you just plain told her she wasn’t going to fly.
-
>All these maybes.
-
>Some responsible adult you were.
-
>The scene from earlier just kept replaying in your head.
-
>How long were you sitting there re-living the events of what just happened.
-
>Cause it felt like a fucking eternity.
-
>”Mr. Mouse?”
-
“Yes that’s me. How is she?”
-
>Jumping up you rushed to the older gentleman who called your name.
-
>”Please follow me.”
-
>With that you followed, through a hallway past some empty examination rooms.
-
>Until you went inside an office.
-
>The doctor, you assumed he was a doctor anyway closed the door and took his seat across from you.
-
>”Mr. Mouse, the young filly you brought in.”
-
“Her name is Scootaloo.”
-
>”Yes, Scootaloo. She suffered blunt vehicular trauma, and it was quite severe.”
-
>You watched as he looked over the clipboard on his desk.
-
>”Massive internal bleeding and several broken bones.”
-
“But she’ll be fine right?”
-
>”Mr. Mouse, I’m sorry.”
-
>”Even with everything we’ve done her heart and lungs suffered extreme damage.”
-
>”Damage which we can’t fix.”
-
>You felt sick to your stomach.
-
>Like you were about to throw up or pass out.
-
>Both would be a welcome option at this point.
-
>And from the looks of it the guy saw that, since he handed you the bin from underneath his desk.
-
>”We have her sedated and on pain killers, but she won’t last much longer.”
-
“Please is there anything? I’ll get the money, whatever it takes just please!”
-
>The doctor just looked at you with an apologetic face.
-
>”Mr. Mouse it’s not a matter of money. It’s impossible, all we can do is make her comfortable now.”
-
>With that he stood up and slowly led you to another room.
-
>And there laying on a bed with several hoses attached to her was the little filly that meant more to you than anything ever before in your life.
-
>You were numb as you approached her bedside.
-
>Slowly you raised your hand and gently brushed her mane from her face.
-
>This wasn’t fair.
-
>God dammit this wasn’t fair.
-
>You two barely got to know each other.
-
>She had her whole life ahead of her.
-
>This wasn’t right.
-
>How long did you stand there?
-
>Did it matter?
-
>What the fuck did anything matter anymore.
-
>But the dreaded moment came regardless.
-
>The heart monitor gave that monotone noise.
-
>She was gone.
-
>And the only thing left for you to do was cry.
-
-
>Walking into your backyard you made your way to the tombstone settled underneath the tree.
-
“Hey Scoots, you won’t believe what happened at work today.”
-
>And there in the last few hours of light you spent the rest of the day recounting everything that happened.
-
>After Scootaloo passed a lot happened, and not just to you.
-
>Another portal opened, much like the one that brought the ponies to this world.
-
>The rulers that came were less than pleased when they learned what became of their subjects.
-
>And basically gave an ultimatum about freeing their subjects.
-
>The president nearly shit his pants on live television when a horse told him to let her people go or she’d supernova the place to hell.
-
>Some went back to their world.
-
>Some chose to stay, looked like you weren’t the only asshole that was kind to ponies.
-
>You however were a wreck for a long time.
-
>The weight of the fight you had with Scootaloo being the last time you ever spoke broke your heart.
-
>But your friends helped.
-
>Hell even Jerry came back and managed to be a bro about everything.
-
>Fluttershy chose to stay, without her help you’d probably wouldn’t have recovered as fast.
-
>You were better now.
-
>It still hurt that you wouldn’t see her happy smile, but you were better.
-
>And you were never going to forget that little pony.
