This chapter doesn't contain any clop in it, more story. Sorry. I try to spread out between clop and story. As I keep writing the story I keep realizing that this story will become longer and longer as I spread it out with details and more characterization. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter!
CSI: Pony mysterys
Pinkie Pie hated hospitals most of the time. No smiles. The only thing to celebrate was when foals were born. And you couldn't even party! Pinkie's mane had deflated the moment she was told the reason of why she had to go to the hospital. Now she dragged her hooves, walking behind Rarity as they walked towards their friend's room. Pinkie played back the scene in her head.
"I'm comiiing!" Pinkie whailed in response to the loud knocks on the door.
Pinkie opens the door to the oven and starts for the cookies in her oven. "Pinkie!" a voice yells.
Pinkie jumps, facing Rarity who had let herself in. "Oh hi Rarity! I was about to get to the door but I just had to finish these cookies. I mean I couldn't just let them burn. Who likes burnt cookies. Well I did try Applebloom's burnt cookies that one time and they actually weren't that ba-"
"Pinkie this is an emergency and I am in no mood to deal with your nonsense! Now put your cookies somewhere else and listen for a second!" Rarity takes a deep breathe "Calm down Rairty, Worry wrinkles won't get you the stallions!"
"Okay okay silly billy!" Pinkie giggles. She puts the cookies in her mane and bounces over "Oooh ohh are we going to a surprise party? Or or or maybe..." Rarity covers the pink pony's mouth, shushing her.
"Look Pinkie, we need to head over to the hospital." Rarity gets out a tissue, prepared to wipe away messed up make up off her cheeks.
"Oh um, are we delivering cupcakes again? Because, if you don't mind I like to stay back this time." Pinkie's bouncy mane droops on her face.
"No Pinkie it's Fluttershy, shes very injured." Rarity takes a deep breathe.
"I-Injured? F-Fluttershy?" Pinkie's mane pops like a balloon "Oh..."
"Pinkie? Pinkie please!" Rarity snaps. Pinkie shakes her head.
"Y-Yeah?" Pinkie sniffs, she looks up and sees her friends gathered in the room in front of her. She plasters on a fake smile and holds up her bright balloons "I-I'm ready." Rarity nods and walks into the room with her.
Fluttershy has bandages wrapped over her right eye, old blood stains the white bandages. Pinkie Pie feels her chest sink. She notices that Fluttershy is propped off her back with bandages wrapped around her back and wings. She wraps the balloons on the bed. She then steps back to a back corner of the room. She sits down, waiting until she can leave with the others.
Twilight is standing by Fluttershy. "Now Fluttershy, I know you're hurt right now, but we really need to ask you some questions so we can find out who's done this to you.
Fluttershy looks at Twilight "Please Twilight, I already told you... I went after one of my animals into the Everfree Forest and I got hurt."
Twilight raises an eyebrow "Rainbow Dash said she found you screaming on your bedroom floor...."
A brown stallion in a white coat walks into the hospital room, levitating his clipboard. "It's possible that she doesn't remember right now, she did suffer some minor head damage." he glances back at her x-ray.
Applejack puts a hoof on Twilight's shoulder "We're just gonna have to settle with relying on the evidence for now, one way or another we will find out who did this to Fluttershy..."
"What do you mean you want me to 'tone her dreams down?'" Luna stares blankly at Twilight "I'm sorry but I can't control how a pony's dream plays out, that is on your friend's part."
Twilight nods "Sorry Luna, I just hate to see my friend scared to sleep...If this keeps going on she might sleep during the day and stay awake during the night!" A smile sneaks across Luna's face.
"Would that really be so bad Twilight? I mean, really. A change...Where ponies stay awake during night and sleep during the day... I for one think it would be...Wonderful. Don't you agree?" She strokes her hoof on Twilight's back.
"Gah! Luna, I'm kind of stressed out right now. But I'd love to talk to you about whatever you were just saying when I solve it all. Thanks for the talk anyway." Twilight shoves Luna's hoof off her shoulder and turns, flying off.
"She'll come around...And soon the day will be when everpony sleeps." Luna grins.
"Luna." A regal voice creeps behind from Luna, causing her to jump. She turns to see Cadance and Celestia standing in front of her. Frowning.
Luna regains her posture and clears her throat "Y-Yes sister?" she bites her lip.
"There have been more reports of crimes at night lately. I need you to investigate more often than doing dream magic."
"But sister...Is it wise to send a princess out?" Luna feels her lungs tighten. Just what she needed.
"I wouldn't want to send any of my other subjects out...And you are regularly up at night unlike Me, Princess Cadance, and Princess Twilight. I wouldn't send you out if I didn't trust you sister."
Luna sighs with defeat "Right..."
Princess Cadance's face grows with worry "That won't be a problem, will it? We can find another way if we have to Luna..."
Luna shakes her head "I'll deal with it, it's fine. I just have a lot on my mind at the moment."
Celestia walks over to her sister "Are you sure you're alright...You know I'm here for you if you need anything." She reaches in for a hug.
Luna pushes her away "No!" The princesses stare at her. "Look, I'm fine you really don't need to worry about me. I'll be off now. I've got a long night ahead..." Luna spreads her wings and flies off.
Luna stares at her moon. "Just thinking about ponies playing in my moonlight fills me with joy." She smiles softly. She stands on the cloud, looking down below to see Fluttershy's cottage under her. "Now..."
She jumps off the cloud and slowly flies down to the window. The room is still the same as when Fluttershy woke up."Good. The royal guards haven't been here yet." She grins, levitating a knife with blood. On the handle is the name "Fluttershy". She gently places the knife on the wooden cottage floor. On Fluttershy's mirror she takes out some papers, on it are the name of the victim's of crimes that Celestia had given Luna to investigate. She tapes it onto the mirror. She crosses the names off with red marker. "There, it isn't perfect but it will at least buy me some time." Luna backs up. She jumps out of the window and flies back to the castle.
