Fern opened her eyes.
"You're awake." said a voice.
She looked over to her right. There was a blue pegasus in a hospital bed by the door
"Who are you?"
"I'm Rainbow Dash." answered the pegasus. "What happened to you?"
"A pink pony knocked me through a window."
"Pinkie Pie?" asked Rainbow Dash. "What happened?"
"She got away."
"That's too bad."
"Wait." said Fern. "Rainbow Dash? You're friends with Twilight and the others, right?"
"Yeah. How'd you know?"
"They mentioned your name. Said Pinkie hurt you. And also that you could've lost your wings."
"Yeah." said Rainbow Dash. "I'm lucky to have friends like them."
A unicorn entered the room. "Hey, Fern."
"Macy." said Fern. "Hi."
"How you feeling?" asked Macy standing next to Fern's bed.
"Better. The nurse said I could get up and walk this afternoon."
"How was the operation?" asked Macy.
"Operation?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"Yeah." said Fern. "They had to take pieces of glass out of me. The put me to sleep while they did it, of course."
"Of course." said Dash.
"And who are you" asked Macy.
"Name's Rainbow Dash. Yours?"
"Macy. Nice to meet you."
Then Twilight and the others appeared in the doorway.
"Hey, Rainbow Dash." said Twilight, standing beside her bed. "The doctors say it may take another day or two before you can leave here. Isn't that great?"
"Finally." said Dash. "I miss you guys."
"I see you met Fern and Macy." said Twilight.
"Fern saved me." said Fluttershy.
"It was nothing." said Fern.
"Nothing?" asked Rainbow Dash. "Saving a life isn't nothing. You're a hero."
"She's right, you know." said Trixie. "And don't fight it. They won't let you. Trust me."
Fern smiled. For the first time ever, she now has more than one friend.
