And of course Pinkie for co-narrating

Pinkie paced back and forth, she hasn’t stopped moving since hearing the news that her little colt was in the hospital. Her usual puffy pink hair was straight covering her face.

“Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear” she said in a worried tone. “I knew I shouldn’t have ignored my pinkie sense, this is entirely my fault I just know it,” She said lowering her head to the ground. Just then Derpy came up and put his hoof on her shoulder.

“This is in no way your fault, don’t even let yourself think that,” He said moving her hair from covering her bright blue eyes. Just then Speedster showed up.

“How’s he doing” asked Speedster concerned in his voice.

“He will live thanks to you.” Derpy replied shaking his hoof.

“Oh nonsense, you would have done the same for Dashter if you were in my hooves,” Said Speedster.

“Ha yea, all I got to do is learn how to do a sonic rainboom is all,” Derpy said smirking a little.

Pinkie was ignoring them she was in her own thoughts. She was thinking about her day. How could it have gone from so good to so bad in a matter of hours? She had watched her two boys flying into the sky. She was so proud of her little Derpy Pie. A single tear went down her cheek as she saw the last image of her boys disappeared into the clouds. I DID NOT CRY! It was dust! Yes it was some rouge dust that had it out for me! Yea yea Pinkie whatever you say. Hurmph it was! Yea I agree Pinkie that dust came at you like a rabid bunny. And that’s how Equestria was made. Uh yea… Soooooo.

Once they were out of sight Pinkie felt her tail begin to twitch, but she was in to good of a mood to pay any attention to her Pinkie sense. She made her annual trip of hopping down Ponyville saying hi to every pony she saw. Once she was all done with that she hopped on home where she opened up the shop and got to cooking some fresh deserts. As she was cooking she heard a loud crash coming from the entrance. She slowly put down her tray of cupcakes on the counter knowing who caused the commotion. Her boys were back.

“He he I wonder who is home” she said giggling to herself skipping to the front door. Much to her surprise she saw Derpy Sr. laying out on the floor breathing heavily, tears running down his face.

“What’s wrong?” She screamed running towards derpy. It was at that moment she noticed Dp wasn’t with him. “Where is Derpy Pie” she yelled out frantically helping Derpy Sr. up.

“Accident, Hospital… Go now. I’ll catch up!” He managed to say still trying to catch his breath. Pinkies hair instantly deflated. She took off so fast you could of swore it was Rainbow Dash. As she ran through the streets of Ponyville all ponies saw was a pink blur flying by. All these thoughts were running through her head and tears began to fill her eyes. She finally reached the hospital and busted through the front doors like a charging rhino. Uhhh sorry but what’s a rhino? It’s a big animal that charges at things. Hey bud you calling me fat? No no no not at all I’m just showing the readers just how badly you busted through those doors. Oki…..doki….loki but I’m watching you…. Yes well then.

As the doors flew open the nurses at the front desk immediately looked up.

“Where is Derpy Pie Hooves located?” Pinkie yelled slamming her hooves on the desk.

“Let’s see um…” the Nurse mare said franticly looking through a stack of papers.

“Tell Me Now!” Pinkie screamed out. Almost making the nurse drop the stack of papers.

“Pinkie this way!” A voice yelled out. Pinkie turned around to see Speedster waving her over. She quickly ran over to him. “He’s in the surgery room as we speak!” he said trying to calm the freaked out mare. Though he realized that might have not been the best thing to say to the mother of a colt in surgery. “Err I mean he will be fi-”

“What happened?” She asked interrupting him with a surprisingly calm voice as they got to the surgery room.

“Have a seat,” he said. But she continued to stand. “Okay well your son was doing an amazing job on the course he past the speed portion without a hitch. He then went to the next part where he had to swerve around 10 pillars. One by one he went around each one flawlessly.” He paused to take a breath before saying the next part. “As he neared the last pillar he turned too early and his whole left side slammed into the pillar and then he just fell. The Cloud floor should have caught him but instead he just fell through, so I took off after him. He was getting closer and closer to the ground but I was gaining ground. I did a Sonic rainboom and was able to catch him just in time.” He heard pinkie let out a sigh. “So I carried him and told Derpy Sr. to get you and he took off.” “ I then instantly took Dp here and they brought him to surgery. As I brought him here he passed out.” He said in a concerned voice.

“Thank you for saving him.” she said in a voice that would have made anypony think it was Fluttershy talking. Moments later Derpy Sr. joined the two outside in the hall outside of the surgery room.

They waited for what seemed like hours to hear the news regarding their son. Speedster left and got the two some food knowing that they had to be hungry. They thanked him and ate the food silently. Hunger was the least of their worries. Just then the Unicorn doctor came out and all the ponies surrounded him.

“He is in stable condition and he will live.” The unicorn said. “He is still under the affects of the magic sleep spell, but he will be up by morning.”

“Thank you doctor,” Derpy and Pinkie said simultaneously.

“Don’t thank me yet.” The unicorn said with a sad expression. “You see the impact caused the bone in his wing to shatter to shards.” Both Pinkie and Derpy cringed. “It seemed while falling all the shards of broken bone kept cutting at the wing,” Pinkie looked over at Speedster anger filled her eyes

“Why didn’t you tell me his wing was messed up!” she roared at him.

“I didn’t want to worry you I knew the doctor could fix it with his magic.” he replied with guilt in his voice.

“Dear he did it with the right intention,” Derpy Sr. Said holding her head to his chest. “Please continue doctor.”

“This next part is going hard to say.” Derpy and Pinkie grabbed each other expecting the worse. “I did all I could to fix his wing, but I had to take out a lot of the shards of bone and well we had to replace the bits that were broken beyond magical repair with plaster that we use for casts.” He cleared his throat seeming to delay his next words. “And you see we don’t think that Derpy Jr. will ever be able to fly again.” he told the ponies with tears in his eyes. The hallway went quiet. No pony moved or said anything. It was as if time stood still. Derpy looked over to Pinkie to see a face he has never seen on her before. She looked like a she wasn’t even there. Her faced showed no emotion at all. But then she spoke

“Thank you doctor,” is all she said. “May I go in?” She asked.

“Yes certainly,” the Doctor replied. She walked into the room while the doctor talked with Derpy and Speedster. She walked over to Derpy Jr. He was asleep in the bed a bandaged covered his whole left wing. A bandaged also covered his stomach as well. Pinkie stroked his face with her hoof.

“I’m so happy you’re alive.” Tears started flowing down her checks. “I don’t care what that dumb doctor said, because he is wrong you will fly Derpy you will fly.” She laid her head on his chest. She could hear his heart beat beating softly. “I love you so much Derpy so so so much, there is nothing I wouldn’t do for you.” Just then she heard a shrill voice say

“I-I la-love you too mom” as a pair of small hooves hugged her. As Pinkie heard that little voice speak her hair and tail poofed right back up. She picked him up in her hooves and squeezed tightly forgetting about his injuries. “Ow!” he yelled out.

“Oh dear im super super super sorry dear!” she replied. She called in Derpy Sr. and Speedster so they could see how he was doing. Derpy busted into the room tripping and sliding into a tray that shot a bunch of sharp operating tools flying all over the place. Everypony started to laugh. He got up smiling walking toward Dp

“How are ya feeling champ?” asked Derpy

“Been better,” Dp replied smiling. “Don’t wa-worry dad when mu-my wing heals up I’ll g-give the test another go,” he said confidently. Everypony in the room went quite and the smiles were gone. “w-why is everpony sa-sad?” he said looking confused. Pinkie broke the silence.

“Of course you are you’re the best flyer ever!” She said patting his head.

“What happened Dp? You were doing so well.” Speedster chimed in.

“I-I don’t really Kn-know. I felt a sh-sharp pain in my side and accidently t-turned too early.”

“hmm I see,” Speedster said rubbing his chin. “Oh someone has been worried about,” he said with a smile. “Hey Dashter come in.” just then a door flew open and a blue blur came flying in. Talking almost as fast as she flew.

“Oh my Celestia you’re alive!” I knew you were alive, but wow that was an epic crash!” It was like KABBOM then you fell and my dad went after you.” “You need to be more careful!” Dp wasn’t listening to her as usual when she was around he was just staring at her beauty and the fact that she cared about his well being made him feel even better.

“ha-ha yea I know I know.” “Don’t worry I’ll be up there soon enough showing you my sweet moves,” he replied thinking how smooth he was being. The adults though once again went quite at the mention of him flying. Luckily the colt and filly were in their own little world together. Ohhhhhhh boy how will Pinke get out of this mess. I don’t know pinkie how will she explain this news to Derpy Pie? Beaaats me maybe she’ll put on a puppet show! Then I could go and watch it too yay!!! So you’re telling me you want Pinkie to put on a puppet show to explain to her son that he will never be able to fly again… just so you can watch yourself perform a puppet show? YES! Ok just making sure.

That night Pinkie and Derpy stayed in the hospital with their son. They were moved out of the surgery room and into an observation room so the doctors could make sure the magic surgery held up. They were told that if everything was in order they could go back home. While Dp slept Pinkie and Derpy were talking trying to figure out how to tell their son the bad news.

“Let’s just tell him when he wakes up, the longer we wait the more it will hurt him to hear.” Derpy said

“No! The doctors are wrong he will fly again we don’t need to tell him diddily squat!” Pinkie angrily returned

“Shh you’ll wake him,” derpy said scorning her. Pinkies optimism was one her traits he loved most about her. “Dear if a unicorn couldn’t of healed his wing fully what makes you think it will heal on its own?” he asked

“I don’t know yet maybe twilight can help him, I bet her magic is a bagillion times better then these docs with their way cool coats and Popsicle necklace things.” She snorted

“stethoscope,” Derpy replied

“Gesundheit,” Pinkie said frowning.

“Yes, thank you.” Derpy said trying to hold in his laughter at Pinkies obliviousness. “I think Twilight is busy with the new school year and besides these are doctor unicorns their magic is specially suited for the stuff. Twilight’s is more for, I don’t know science stuff.” Pinkie just sat there with a frown. “Come on lets go to bed we have a big day ahead of us tomorrow. We still have to figure out how to tell Dp the news.” He hugged Pinkie and gave her a kiss. They settled into their makeshift bed and went to sleep for the night. What they didn’t notice was the silently crying colt in the bed who heard the whole conversation.

“I can’t fly?” he thought to himself, tears running down his face. He didn’t know how to take this news. He would never be able to go to school with Dashter. His heart sank. Would he have to go to earth pony school? He would stick out more then when he was at cloud city. Then he remembered Pinkie talking about how twilight could help him. He wiped his tears out of his eyes. He knew what to do. “I-I’ll go see twilight,” he silently said to himself. His mood started to turn for the better. He thought to himself “everything will be ok I just know it.”
