When Berry Punch goes to the bar...

Berry Punch went to the bar. Oh, and she had a fight.

Berry Punch: Drunk follows Berry telling the story of what happened. Telling it to Colgate and Nurse Redheart, of course. Guess why there's Nurse Redheart there. Anyway, just a comedic one-shot typed piece by piece during times when I'm not supposed to do that (aka in class, after I'm done and have nothing to do, or during break.)

Chapter One: The Hospital

Notes! I hate notes! Let’s skip to the point: Berry’s at a bar!

Also makes references to BlackGryph0n at BABSCon 2015 on the BroniesREACT panel (I was there). You know, that one song about Berry Punch falling down the stairs. Again.

Berry Punch: Drunk

Chapter 1: The Hospital

Machines beep everywhere. I slowly open my eyes, but my right eye is bandaged up. I try to move my right foreleg, but it’s casted, so I try my other, only to notice a pain on the joint.. An IV line. Ah, where are my manners? I'm Berry Punch. Local town drunkard and fillyfooler (it's easy to be one when the mare-colt ratio is somewhere along the lines of 5:1).

“Why am I here?” I wonder. Aloud, actually.

“Oh, Ms. Punch, you’re awake.” somepony said. It was Nurse Redheart. Suddenly, my head filled with memories of last night… at the bar. Oh, great.

“You took a pretty hard hit last night, Berry,” she starts. “You broke your right foreleg, pretty much got your tail cut off, broke some ribs on the right, and chipped half the teeth in your mouth!”

I responded, “Um, right. The bar.”

“Yeah.”

There was an awkward silence. Really, it lasted maybe a minute, but it felt like an eternity. Colgate broke it up when she rushed in, half-shouting my name.

“Berry! Berry! You’re awake!” she exclaims.

Colgate leans in and hugs me. Unfortunately for me, the door -- and Colgate -- is on my right. Also on my right are my cracked ribs and foreleg. She hugs pretty tight, too.

“OW! AACK! COLGATE- ARRGH!” I manage to squeak out.

Colgate retracts and apologizes. “Sorry!”

Nurse Redheart explains my injuries in detail. Colgate grimaces when we get to the topic of chipped teeth.

“Berry, what did you get into last night?” she inquires.

“Well, it’s kind of a long story.” I reply.

“I have time. Especially for you.” A small smile emerges from her.

“Well, it all started when I went to the bar…”
