Cheating the Cycle of Life- A Padded Pony Collab

The last thing Sunset Shimmer could remember upon arriving home, was drinking some hot soup offered to her by Pinkie Pie, and then passing out in her bed shortly afterward.

She was awoken from her comatose state by a loud clap of thunder from outside. Still feeling very sick, Sunset Shimmer slowly opened her eyes. Another clap of thunder, and the sound of raindrops hitting her bedroom window, was all the evidence she needed to realize that it was storming.

Sunset Shimmer tried to get up, but every part of her body ached. Her head felt like it had been smashed with a hammer, her nose was red and stuffy, her legs wobbled like wet noodles, making it impossible for her to stand up.

“I must’ve caught that flu bug that’s going around.” she thought to herself, as she sneezed once again.

It was upon laying back down in her bed, that Sunset Shimmer finally became aware of a faint crinkling sound. She looked all around, but the noise was not emanating from anything in her room.

Then, as another clap of thunder split the air, Sunset Shimmer looked down at her crotch area, and saw that her red skirt and panties had been removed. In their place, was a thick, white, diaper.

Before Sunset Shimmer had much of a chance to ponder why she was diapered, her bedroom door was opened, and in strolled Pinkie Pie. “Oh, good. You’re awake. I was starting to get worried, thought you might be really sick or something,” Pinkie Pie said to Sunset Shimmer “How are you feeling?”

Sunset Shimmer groaned, and put a hand to her head “I feel like trash, it doesn’t feel like a single part of me isn’t in pain.” she complained, her stuffy nose made her voice sound nasally and somewhat rasp.

“Well, that’s why I diapered you. You’re in no condition to be moving,” Pinkie Pie explained “I know you’re not gonna like it, but it’s better than trying to overtax your body by walking to the bathroom. Lucky for you, I’m an expert diaper changer.”

Sunset Shimmer would’ve complained, but her body was so sore that she knew Pinkie Pie was right. There was no way her legs would co-operate for even a quick trip to the bathroom. Like it or not, she wasn’t going to be getting out of bed anytime soon.

“Did you at least call my parents and tell them what happened?” Sunset Shimmer asked. When she’d first come to the human world, she’d been an orphan, but since the Fall Formal, she’d been taken in by Magnum and Pearl. With Sweetie Belle living with her sister Rarity, they had been willing to let Sunset Shimmer to stay with them for as long as she liked.

Pinkie Pie nodded “They’re out of the town for the weekend, but they said if you’re not better by the time they come home on Monday, they’re taking you to the doctor.”

“Thank you, Pinkie. It’s nice to be able to count on a friend at a time like this,” Sunset Shimmer said sweetly, coughing slightly “Do you think you could get me some soup to eat?”

“Well, before I do that, I think I’d better change you. Your diaper is really wet.” Pinkie Pie replied.

Sunset Shimmer looked down at her crotch again, and saw that her diaper’s white coloring was disturbed by a noticeable yellow tint. Whatever this illness was, it had apparently made her unaware that she had needed to pee. She could only hope the effects weren’t permanent.

“Just relax, I’ll be back in a flash with a clean diaper and some wipes!” Pinkie Pie instructed, and raced away.

Sunset Shimmer just sighed “It’s not like I can do anything else.” she thought unhappily to herself, as there was yet another clap of thunder. By this point, the claps were becoming less and less frequent, but the rain was not dying down. This was going to be a long weekend.
