Scootaloo's Crush

Scootaloo laid back on her hospital bed and groaned. That was that, she was stuck here for the night, and having had experience with hospital staff before, she knew she would end up being there longer. That on top of the fact that Rainbow Dash wasn't doing well, or most likely wasn't but it was the only explanation for the way the nurse reacted to hearing her name. She stared up at the ceiling and reminisced on all of her memories with the rainbow Pegasus, she remembered the time at Rainbow Falls when she and Rainbow Dash bonded for the first time, she remembered the first flying lesson years in the past and even though she still couldn't fly it brought back many fun and fond memories in her mind. Scootaloo sighed as she remembered one particular memory of Rainbow Dash defending her against a mean spirited bully from her school, tears welled up in her eyes as she realized how bad Dash had looked when she last saw her, something snapped internally in Scootaloo and she decided she had to go find out if Dash would be ok, she had to do this.

Scootaloo might have underestimated what her passing out had done to her, her vision went blurry and her head spun at a high speed just from trying to pull herself up on her hooves. "Pull yourself together!" she practically screamed in her head as she used all of her strength to heave herself onto her hooves and she was finally standing on the cold hospital floor. Her legs trembled under her and threatened to give out and her head was spinning again, but she didn't care, with a grunt of anger and determination she slowly began to make her way towards the door, she was about to burst through the door when she remembered she would have to be very sneaky about this. She slowly cracked the door open and peered her head around the corner slowly, the hallway was dark and desolate, perfect for what she had in mind.

She slipped out of her room and into the dark hallway of the hospital. The wing she was in had a reception desk around the corner from where her room was, the other end of the hallway was a double doorway into another wing of hallways. Scootaloo figured that she would be able to find where Rainbow Dash was by looking through the files of the desk. She slinked silently down the hallway and peeked around the corner, she was utterly distraught however to see bright lights ponies sitting in the chairs and two people sitting behind the reception desk. It wouldn't work, she couldn't realistically find out information when ponies were bustling around the area. She grunted in frustration and turned back towards the hall. She was going to have to take that set of double doors and work her way through the hospital. It wasn't ideal, it wasn't convenient, and considering the gigantic size of the hospital it would be nearly impossible to locate one patient in this maze of a place, but she didn't care at all. Rainbow Dash was her sister and she loved her, no matter what she had to find her, she wouldn't let anything happen without seeing her first.

Scootaloo saw a clock on the wall that read 11:18 pm, she would only have until the early morning until the nurses would check on her again, she needed to move quickly if she wanted a chance at finding her sister, she realized she had reached the double doors leading to the rest of the hospital, she had so much to look through, so she needed to go, she took a deep breath, and pushed through the doors.
