Alright... Where was I? Oh right! Falling.


As I was halfway between the sky and Rainbow Dash I realized something. First of all, that I had wings, but that thought really didn't hit me until sometime after that fatal... Encounter with Rainbow Dash's body at intense speeds. The thing that really hit me, in a way I would think to be very... How to say it... like an epiphany, was that I wasn't yet screaming my head off like one would think to do. So, without another thought, I started screaming. Not long after I started, Rainbow Dash looked up. The expression on her face would have been funny, if this weren't such a dangerous moment, and that I had enough time to think on it. What happened next, almost didn't register into my mind until it happened. Before she could move away I crashed into her with a sickening thud, and pain shot through my... well my everything, but especially my front... hooves. Yeah, hooves.

After plowing into her with so much force we crashed straight through the cloud and began falling very, very fast, due to our momentum or some other scientific term. As the ground neared closer and closer I really only had one coherent thought in my head. That thought was, 'Why Me, Why Me, Why Me?!'. And then we crashed into the ground sending one last flash of pain through my body before I blacked out.


Rainbow Dash's POV

I heard a scream and instantly woke up from my nap. I bolted upright and quickly looked around for the source of the loud, echoing scream, until I realized it was coming from above my head. So, like anypony would do, I looked up. Just as I registered that another pony was falling towards me at speeds that looked to rival my own, she was right above me. I cursed and tensed my body to get read for a colossal impact and pain. Good thing I did, too, because right as I did she crashed into me, sending a wave of extreme pain into me.

As we crashed through the cloud and hurtled towards the ground at speeds almost as fast, if not faster, than one of my Sonic Rainbooms, I had a few thoughts. They were something along the lines of...; 'That hurt so bad! Augh! (Which, by the way, I yelled aloud too.) Why was this pony not using her wings! Hell, How did she even get above me without me noticing until the last second, did she just appear there or something?'. And then just as we were about to crash into the hard ground of Ponyville Square I thought one last thing before the world went dark. 'Oh no. Not again.' and then we crashed.


Omniscient POV

Many ponies saw as the blue and green mare crashed into the rainbow one with such force then went flying though a cloud and ended up in a hole when they crashed into the Ponyville Main Square street. Many ponies heard the sickening thud as they collided and the loud crunch as they collided with the earth.

Luckily for the two ponies some friends were not far away. Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, and Fluttershy ran over to the two unconscious ponies, to clear the crowd and give them some air.

"Holy Apple-fritters! What happened?!" Applejack exclaimed as she took in the sight of the two broken and unconscious ponies embedded in the ground.

"By the looks of it, the faller started falling far above the fallee. I'm pretty sure we all know who was the one falling and who was being crashed into." Twilight observed.

"Don't just stand around." Fluttershy said quietly. "They need help. We should get them to the hospital before the damage is permanent... if... that sounds okay..."

"Of course, Fluttershy!" Applejack said. she looked up and whistled loudly. Big Macintosh and a large brown farmcolt trotted over to the scene. "Alright you two. Can you help carry these two to the hospital?"

"Eeyup." Big Mac replied lifted Rainbow Dash up with the help of the the large colt, and helped get the blue and green one onto the colt's back.

Together they carried off the two ponies towards the hospital slowly and carefully. They were followed closely by the three mares.


Mysterious Blue n' Green Pony's POV

Somehow my unconscious self felt an odd bump every few seconds. I slowly woke up and deliriously looked around. 'Why am I on the back of... Oh yeah.' I thought to myself and then looked a little more. 'Is that... yup.' and then I fell back into unconsciousness.


Rainbow Dash's POV

'I do not feel good at all.' I thought to myself as every bump sent a jolt through my body. Even though I went in and out of consciousness I never opened my eyes. I already knew that Big Macintosh was carrying me. He was usually the one who would do that when I had the occasional crash. I don't crash because I want to be carried by him, so don't even think about asking me anything about that.


Omniscient POV

Soon the small group and the two injured ponies were at the hospital and soon after that the two were put in separate beds of the same room.

The group sat and waited in the Lobby, bored as schoolponies during a test, until a doctor came out of the back part of the hospital and over to the waiting ponies.

"Well... The injuries on both mares are very... bad." He started, only to be interrupted by the collective gasp of all ponies present. "But! But, they are not fatal. The two should be out of the hospital in two to four days, and out of their casts in 6 to 9 days. But even then, they should have plenty of rest before performing any stunts like that."

"Well, that's a relief." Twilight said. Then she looked up quickly. "When will we be able to go and talk to them?"

"Oh, they should be waking up around now, so you can go visit them whenever your ready." The doctor explained before turning and going back through the door.
