To Make a Mare of a Stallion

Chapter 3: Spending a Night Away From Hell.

Blood. That’s all Jess could see through the window before a nurse pulled her back and took her to the waiting room. By the time they reached the waiting room, Jess was screaming for the nurse to drop her.

“LET ME BE WITH MY BROTHER!” The nurse shook her head and put her in a seat. “I’ll get you when it is okay for you to visit him.”

Jess looked at the nurse, tears running down her face. “Didn’t you hear them... He has no pulse. My brother is dead!” She wrapped her hoof over the filly’s shoulder while looking down at her. “He’s not dead, his condition just caused him to lose a lot more blood than we expected. He’s in critical condition right now so no visitors, I’m sorry.”

The filly hugged the nurse, her tears running into the nurse’s fur. “W-What if he dies? I l-love him... I d-don’t know what I would do without m-my brother...” She hugged her back, gently stroking her mane while trying to comfort the crying filly. “He won’t die sweetie, we will make sure of that.”

“B-But... W-What about the bill... My p-parents won’t pay for it...” She wiped the tears from her face, her eyes red from the crying. She smiled at the filly looking over to the front desk before looking back to her. “Don’t you worry about the bill honey, I’ll take care of it.”

She ruffled the filly’s mane continuing to smile at her. “You can go see your brother in a bit, I’ll make sure you’re the first one in there.” Jess sniffled a bit before hugging the nurse tighter. “T-Thank you... S-So much... What’s y-your name?”

“I’m Nurse Redheart. It’s lovely to meet you honey, and what would your name be?” The filly smiled a bit and looked up at Nurse Redheart. “My name is Jessica, but everypony calls me Jess.” She got up from the chair she was sitting on, offering Jessica her hoof. “Come on, I’ll take you to go see your brother. It’s the least I can do, you’ve been though a lot tonight.”

Jess grabbed her hoof and let out a squeal of excitement. “Thank you!” She lead Jessica down the hallway. It took a little while to get to the end of the hall but once they did they came to door number twenty two. She opened the door, letting Jessica inside. “Just be quiet, I don’t want to get in trouble.” She closed the door quietly leaving the two alone.

She put her front hooves on the side of the bed and looked at Flammy. He had an oxygen mask on, and he had a heart rate meter hooked up to him along with a couple of IVs. She laid her head on his chest and whispered quietly. “I’m glad you aren’t dead... You are the most important pony in my life...” His eyes opened weakly looking down at his sister. he was too weak to talk but he simply rested his hoof on her mane and stroked it gently, a weak smile rising up on his face.

She looked at his face and smiled. Jess climbed on the bed beside him and hugged him with all four hooves. “I love you Flammy.” He found enough energy in himself to talk. “Love you too Sis....Guess this is the worst dad has ever beaten me down to right?” He started breathing heavily, continuing to stroke his sister’s mane.

She hugged him tighter and nuzzled his cheek. “It’s okay, I won’t let him hurt you any more...”

“T-Thanks Sis that means a lot....” He took another deep breath, looking down at her. “Now you go home...I don’t want to see mom and dad come down here and take you away by force. Mom still loves you, she’ll protect you from dad....Or just lock yourself in your room. Just don’t worry about me.....”

She sniffled and kissed his cheek. “O-Okay... If y-you need anything then as f-for Nurse Redheart, o-okay?”

“I’ll let her know as soon as I need you or anything else....” Jess let go of her brother and stood up, then made her way to the door. “B-Bye Flammy...”

“Bye Jess, be sure to visit okay?” He looked at her with a faint smile before laying his head back and closing his eyes to rest himself. Jess opened the door and shut it behind her, leaving the room in complete silence, aside from the repetitive beep from the heart rate meter.

He sat up in bed, pulling the oxygen mask from his face as he started to breathe normally again. Flammy’s face and mane were messy, though the make-up his sister had applied the same night was still in perfect condition. “Jess, what would I do without you....?” He turn his head to the right, picking up a small bowl of water left by Nurse Redheart. The colt looked at his reflection with a sigh. “So this is my life now huh? Being a mare-like stallion, that part I’ll always love. It’s all thanks to my sister, she takes such great care of me... She’s even nice enough to put make-up on me. That’s the sort of thing that’s hard to find in a loving sister...”

He smiled once again, eyeing himself in the watery reflection. “I Guess I’m gonna be here for a while. Of course my parents won’t care. What’s the point in thinking they would. They never have, never will....”

He continued to look into the water. He could see the rage building in his eyes. “J-Just forget this stupid life that I call my own!” He threw the bowl of water to the side, his rage causing him to tear up and cry. “My life is crap and will always be that way......”

A click sound came from the door as it opened, and a worried Nurse Redheart entered the room. “Is everything okay?” She looked at the tears on your face, then the water spilled on the ground. “What’s wrong Flamboyant?”

“My life is what’s wrong!” The tears running down his face caused the make-up to smudge and blur, making his once-clean face a colourful mess. The nurse sighed and picked up a wet washcloth, then wiped the makeup off of your face. “But you have such a loving sister, and I bet your parents care about you too.”

“My dad beats me on a daily basis and my mother hasn’t spoken a word to me since I started wearing make-up with my sister, so she’s the only family I have......” His head dropped in silence, tears dripping down from his face.

She rubbed his shoulder and sighed. “It’ll be okay, I won’t let your father get close to you. I’m guessing you want Jess to be allowed in here at any time, right?”

“Yes, Jessica is allowed in any time but if my parents are with her keep them out.......” Redheart nodded and walked over to the door. “Of course. I need to go check on the patient in the next room over, do you need any food or another pillow?”

“A new family for me and my sister is all I want......” He laid his head down on the pillow yawning as he felt his eyes grow heavy. “I need to rest......” Nurse Redheart nodded and opened the door. “Okay, good night Flam.” She left the room and closed the door, once again leaving the room in silence that is broken by the beep of the machines hooked up to the small colt.
