My Little Friendship Confusion Is Magic

"That looks painful.", said a muffled voice.

"Quiet, we need him to sleep.", said another voice.

"Hey, Charlie, wake up.", said a familiar voice.

Jared opened his eyes and saw colorful smudges surrounding him. "Go fuck yourself.", said Jared weakly.

"Nah.", said the black smudge.

Jared focused and saw his new friends around him. He was back in the hospital, again. Only this time he had several tubes and machines attached to him and he was strapped into a chair. His head was clamped back, preventing much movement. He looked at the machines and examined them.

"Long story.", Rainbow dash said.

Tristen walked beside him. "I found something out.", he said smiling. He punched Jared in his injured leg. "We was in the cell for thirty minutes, not three days."

Jared winced and reached for his leg ,but couldn't. His arms where stuck on something. He looked up as best he could and saw his hands bandaged and held to a metal bar.

Jared looked at Tristen confused. "Why am I strapped down to a chair?", he asked.

"Let's just say that some of y'all didn't come back.", Applejack spoke.

The doctor came in before Jared could speak. "Ah, he's awake.", the doctor said aloud. He walked up and examined Jared's bandaged body. "Looks like the augmentation work.", the doctor said joyfully.

"You did what?", Jared asked.

The doctor looked at his friends. "You did tell him, right?", he asked nervously.

They all gave him a sheepish grin. "We...didn't quite get to that.", Twilight spoke up.

The doctor sighed and looked back at Jared. "Your body was in disrepair. You lost too much blood and flesh, your entire body was charred, most of your bones were broken, your hearing was shot. Not to mention your spine was snapped. We had no alternative."

The doctor spun Jared into a mirror. Jared gasped. His limbs where gone and machines had taken there place. Jared still felt them like they were real. His ears had metal aids behind them hidden in his hair. The doctor released his limbs and head and he climbed out of the chair. His spine had a brace on the outside of his body going from tail to neck."Now technically, this is a trial run, the first to be exact, so there's a chance you'll experience some problems later on, but don't worry. We will cover any problems that might occur." The doctor said to Jared.

He just stared at himself in the mirror. "Mind if I have a copy of the designs?" He asked the doctor.

The doctor looked at him puzzled. "Not the reaction I expected, but sure, why?", the doctor asked.

"If this is going to be my new body then I'd liked to know how it was built and what's all inside it.", Jared replied to the doctor.

He walked over to the door to let them out. "I'll get to it as soon as I can.", the doctor said as Jared left, "Do you have a place I can mail it to?"

Twilight spoke before he could, "He'll being staying at the library."

The doctor nodded and walked down the hall. Jared looked back at her. "Thanks.", he said to her.

"Its the least I could do since you saved Rarity." , she said back, "That and the whole "broken leg" indecent."

Jared smiled at his friends. Pinkie appeared behind him.

"At least you got your cutie mark.", she said happily.

Jared looked back at his flank. On it, there was a ball of fire.

"What does that mean?", he asked aloud.

"Your cutie mark defines what your best at.", Twilight informed him.

"So my special power is suicide?", he asked.

"Apparently.", Janson said.

Jared jumped and turned around. He jumped again when he saw Janson. He had a small, metal box under both wings. A tube led from the boxes to a pair of goggles he was warring.

"My god, what the hell happened to you?", Jared asked.

"About t'ask you the same question.", Janson responded.

"Mauled by wolves.", Jared said.

"Struck by lightning.", Janson said.

He looked over at Rainbow Dash. She chuckled nervously,"Sorry bout that."

Tristen came from between the two of them. "Now that your both back and better. What'd you want t'do?", he asked.

"Giving the fact that we've all been through hell.", Jared said calmly, "Relax."

"Agreed.", Janson agreed.

"I agree completely.", said a new voice.

Jared turned to see Rarity. She was all cleaned up and looked a lot healthier.

"Hey, you can speak now.", Jared said to her. "Who managed to take the clothe off?"

She nodded at Rainbow and stuck out her hoof. "She snuck up when Iwas sleeping. But enough of that. We were never properly introduced.", she said to Jared.

"I am the fabulous designer Rarity.", she said boasting. Her friends rolled there eyes.

"I'm Jared.", he said shaking her hoof,"The Burninator."

Rarity gave a slight smile. "Charmed.", she said plainly.

The nine of them made there way out of the hospital. Applejack had to hurry home and get ready for applebuck season. Pinkie literally dragged Tristen back to the bakery. Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Janson made there way back to Fluttershy's home. That left Jared and Twilight to make their way to the library. On the way back, Twilight decided to bring up a conversation.

"How does it fell with you new limbs?", she asked Jared.

Jared shrugged. "Not much different really. I can still fell everything like it was the originals.", he said amazed.

"Well, you got in the 2%.", she said plainly.

They reached the library. "What'd you mean?", he asked partially worried.

Twilight led them into the library. "The doctor said that there was a 2% chance the your nerves wouldn't fry when they put them in.", she said calmly.

"Oh, if that doesn't cheer-.", Jared started.

"Hey Twilight.", said a new voice,"I got a message from princess Celestia."

A small purple dragon came running down the stairs with a scroll in hand. He saw Jared and slowed down. Jared watched as the dragon slowly came closer.

"Ah, Spike, this is Jared. Jared, Spike.", Twilight said introducing them.

"Sup.", Jared said as he stepped forward and held out his hoof.

Spike immediately spat a fire ball at him.

"God damn it.", Jared said before blacking out.
