The Spikes of Liberty

The Spikes of Liberty

Ch.5 Them... again

By: Applejack

It had been three days since Scootaloo had made Derpy cry, but things were starting to calm down, but then there was a knock on the door, Liberty went to see who it was, much to his surprise, it was Doctor Whooves again, asking not for Ms. Hooves, but for Liberty himself. "So, what do you want?" asked Liberty "Well, i would just like for you to walk with me!" said the Doctor "That sounds.... nice..." said Liberty "Splendid! You shant bring anything, I have even packed a picnic for us to enjoy, and bond!" said the excited Doctor.

So Liberty and Doctor Whooves walked until they found a shady location under a tree, as Ponyville was quite hot with it being summer. Mr. Whooves laid out the picnic cloth, ant then proceeded to lay out the food, than Mr. Whooves proceeded to say "Well would you like to lead in saying grace?" with a delayed response from Liberty "Erm, I’ve never said grace before, but i have said prayers..." "Well, grace may be like your prayers! What do you pray about?" asked Doctor Whooves "Erm...." "Come on son! You can say anything to me!"

"Well, I prayed for my parents to come find me..." said Liberty "Oh, well at least I know that now, besides, I’ve known what it feels like to lose somepony too, but I really don’t want to go into details though, I doubt you would understand..” said Dr. Whooves, now starting to cry, “Why can’t I understand, because I’m not a doctor?!?!?” asked Liberty furiously “First of all I’m not even a doctor, second of all I don’t even fully understand my situation!” said Dr. Whooves, now starting to get furious himself.

Then, after their fight, Liberty and Dr. Whooves each went to their home, but Liberty noticed something, there were three silhouettes in front of his home, as he approached, he could make out who the three ponies were,the three ponies from earlier… again. “What are you three doing here, especially you?!” said the already upset colt, pointing at scootaloo “Hey Liberty, I’m very sorry about what I did a co-“ Scootaloo said before she got cut off by Liberty, “You know what?!? I’m not even going to deal with you three today!” than he pushed them out of his way and went into his home.
