Chapter 4: It Grows Inside

"Is she going to be okay?" the guard asked as he followed the doctor who had taken Pinkie. It had been almost an hour and there has been no word about her health. The guard was pacing back and forth through the hall when Shining Armor walked up to him.

"What are you doing?" Shining Armor asked calmly, not being in the hospital on official business.

"Well, uh, the prisoner, Miss Pie, was throwing up really bad, and I was worried, so I, uh-" the guard rambled, while nervously looking around. Shining Armor sighed as he put his hoof on the guard's shoulder.

"Frosty, calm down" Shining said as he lifted the guard's face up with his hoof, "These are the best doctor's in Equestria, she'll be alright". Frosty looking into Shining's eyes and could tell he was telling the truth. Even though he had already known these doctors were the best he felt comforted by his superior officer saying it. As Shining walked away Frosty sat against the wall, waiting for some news about Pinkie's condition.

"Mr. Frost?" a nurse called from down the hall, catching Frosty's attention. He quickly got to his hooves and raced down the hall, almost colliding with one of the doctors, and skidded to a stop in front of the nurse.

"What is it?" Frosty asked quickly, making the nurse take a step back.

"You're being called back down to the dungeon to finish your shift" the nurse said flatly, wanting to get him out of her face as fast as possible. Frosty slowly turned away, a frown growing on his face as he walked out of the hospital, slowly making his way back to the depths of the castle. As he turned the corner out of the hospital and group of five mares ran past him into the hospital.

"Is Pinkie all right?!" one of them shouted, making Frosty stop for a second. They must be her friends, Frosty thought as he started to make his way back again, this time with a small smile on his face because he knew Pinkie was with her friends.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pinkie slowly opened her eyes, finding herself staring at a clean, white, ceiling. When she tried to sit up she felt something push down on her chest, and when she looked she saw a light blue hoof.

"Rainbow?" Pinkie said quietly, suddenly feeling dizzy.

"Yeah, everypony else is here too" Rainbow said sweetly as she took her hoof off Pinkie's chest. Pinkie suddenly felt two pairs of hooves lifting her up, allowing her to move so she was sitting. When she was properly situated she saw that Rainbow was right, everypony was there, including a doctor.

"Hello Miss Pie" the doctor said as he pulled her chart out from behind him, "My name is Doctor Monitor"

"Hi Doctor Monitor" Pinkie said slowly, her face turning green. Doctor Monitor quickly levitated the trash can in front of Pinkie and she vomited into it, making everypony else turn away. When she had finished Doctor Stable moved the trash can back to where he had gotten it from.

"So, what I was going to say is..." Doctor Monitor said, pausing for dramatic effect, "You're pregnant Miss Pie"

"WHAT?!" the five mares in the room shouted, making Doctor Monitor cover his ears.

"We ran some tests while she was asleep, and they said without a doubt, she's pregnant"

"Who did it?" Twilight asked, before she, along with the rest of them, realized what had happened.

"It's all my fault" Pinkie said quietly as she began to sob. She looked into the mirror, got possessed, attacked Rainbow, and raped a guard. To top it all off she was now pregnant with a rape baby, but she's the one who caused it. Pinkie soon started to cry out right, letting her tears flow freely as she thought about all the ponies she was going to disappoint. The Cakes, her friends, the princesses, her parents, everypony in Ponyville...

"Pinkie?" Rainbow said worriedly as she put her hoof on Pinkie's back. When she looked up she saw Rainbow and all of her friends watching her worriedly. They didn't want to see her like this, and they were far from disappointed.

"Thanks guys" Pinkie said with a smile as she wiped the tears off her face.

"What for?" Rarity asked politely, not understanding why Pinkie was thanking them.

"For still being here and not leaving when you heard the news" Pinkie said, still smiling as tears came from her eyes again, but this time they were tears of joy. The six mares quickly hugged, being interrupted by a cough from the doorway. When they looked towards the source of the cough they saw a white blue Pegasus guard with bright blue hair standing by the door.

"I, uh, have to take you back to your cell now Miss Pie" the guard said sadly, not wanting to interrupt the sweet moment. After Pinkie was checked out she waved goodbye to her friends and followed the guard down to the dungeon. Because Pinkie was feeling like her old self again she decided to try and befriend the guard.

"I'm Pinkie Pie, what's your name?" Pinkie asked as she bounced up to walk beside the guard, who gave her a surprised look.

"Me?" the guard asked, to which Pinkie nodded exictedly, "I'm Blue Frost, but everypony calls me Frosty"

"Your name doesn't fit you all too well" Pinkie said absentmindedly as she bounced around, looking at  the walls and the ceiling of the dungeon.

"And why is that" Frosty asked, looking at her in suspicion.

"Because you're the nicest guard I've seen since I got here!" Pinkie said happily, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek before she bounced into her cell, shutting the door behind her. Frosty stood there, stunned, for a few minutes until another guard came by and punched him lightly.

"Hey Frosty, your shift ended an hour ago, why are you still here" the guard asked.

"I was escorting Pinkie, I mean, Miss Pie back to her cell" Frosty said nervously, feeling his cheeks turn red as he thought about what she had done before she had gone into her cell. As the other guard walked away Frosty heard a noise from Pinkie's cell and walked over, peering in through the small window to see what she was doing.

"Hi!" Pinkie whispered quickly, "Is it okay if I call you muffin?"

"Why muffin?" Frosty asked, genuinely wondering why she picked that name.

"Because you're nice, warm, and sweet as a muffin" Pinkie said before jumping back from the door, "Or is that a cupcake? I forget"

"Muffins fine" Frosty said with a smile, "I'll be back tomorrow Pinkie, see you then"

"Bye muffin!" Pinkie said happily, waving her hoof sporadically at him. As Frosty walked away he couldn't help but smile, considering a beautiful mare had just given him a pet name. Meanwhile from Pinkie's cell you could hear her happily chanting the word muffin.
