“Why, good morning. How are you?” Nurse Redheart said to me, a sincere smile on her face. I could tell something had happened to her - she was more rigid with me yesterday. What was up with this change in attitude? I got up off the bed and stretched my limbs, resulting in several exquisite cracks. I began to tie my shoes on, making some idle conversation with Redheart.

“Nurse, you seem to be more.. relaxed this morning.” I asked. She got a little flustered and her face turned red. “Anything happen yesterday that could elicit such change?” I cheekily said, putting on my best duck face.

“Oh.. um, well I.. I just had a good night’s sleep. Yes, that’s it,” Redheart stammered, having a sheepish smile plastered on her face. It was obvious that she was lying to me. When a cartoon lies, it is ridiculously easy to tell when. I gave her a suspicious look in which she decided to change the subject. “I am here to, uh, inform you that you are able to leave the hospital,” she said.

“Already? Is it a good idea for a new species to run around the town without informing its citizens?” I pointed this out. As much as I wanted to leave, I don’t think I would like to cause a panic. Nurse Redheart smiled at me, leaving her previous demeanor and returning to her cheery one.

“Don’t worry. On my way here, the doctors told me that they gave you one last check-up during the night. They deemed you healthy and able to move. However, they are still worried about your mental state. After your little ‘episode’ yesterday, they don’t think you should leave.” She explained to me. The doctors were right about one thing, though: My mental state is questionable. Ever since I was 5, others around me had many ‘unfortunate’ accidents due to my temper and sanity.. but that tale is for another time. Redheart continued to speak:

“However, if you can prove to them that you can control yourself, they will let you go. As for the town, they already know.” Redheart said.

“What!” I said in surprise.

“Yes. When you and your friend were found...” She giggled when she mentioned the tuxedo man, Zero. “...The whole town was buzzing with talk about the strange aliens that came from nowhere! I wouldn’t be surprised if the whole town is out there," she told me. The entire town knows. It beats introductions. I walked to the corner and got my jacket, I put it on and turned to Redheart.

“Alright, Nurse Redheart. Let’s go.” I told her. She nodded and gestured for me to follow. I took one final look back into my room and walked out the door.

So, we are meeting the doctors first, right?” I asked, rhetorically. We were walking down the hallway, passing some doors. There were nurses walking about the halls, giving me nervous looks. Some of the nurses were some that I hadn’t even seen from the show. If this is Equestria, than it is actually its own little world; not bound by a script the writers write, or behaves how the animators want the ponies to act. This Equestria could actually be detached from Earth! It is its own Universe! I’m getting ahead of myself. It sounds logical but I might need more proof.

“Are you okay?” a voice broke me out of my thoughts. It was Redheart - she looked at me with worried eyes. I told her it was nothing, that I was just day-dreaming. She decided to leave it alone and continued walking.

“Where is the other human?” I asked. She blushed again when I mentioned him. What the hell was up with that?

“He is in his room. I wanted to check on you first. To see how you were doing and to explain the situation to you. I’ll return to him after I am done with you.” Redheart told me. l returned my attention to the halls as we both turned a corner, nearing a group of three male.. pony-doctors having a conversation. My tall stature got their attention and almost immediately, they surrounded me.

“It is very intriguing when it’s not trying to escape,” said a doctor.

“How does it stand on its back legs so easily?” said another.

“... And those claws! They are beastly! Fascinating!.” added another doctor, looking at my fingers with a bewildered expression.

Cheeky bastards - treating me like a specimen instead of a living, sentient creature. If wasn’t trying to earn their trust, I would have rammed my foot up their asses.

“I can understand you, you know. Isn’t kind of rude to treat a patient like some sort of wild beast?” The three doctors recoiled in fear and amazement, mostly fear, at my ability to speak in complete sentences. “I don’t blame you, though. Considering I did behave like a wild beast in a futile attempt of escape. I can assure you, however, that I can behave as a civilized being if I wasn't tackled, syringed and buckled to a bed.” I continued. They just kept on looking at me with blank expressions. At least that shut them up.

“Doctors, here is the ‘new’ patient that was found.” Redheart broke the awkward silence. The three doctors shook their heads and focused on me again, studying me. It was unnerving being looked at like this. Hope Twilight doesn't act like this. Eventually, one of the doctors, one with a brown mane and caramel coat, stopped looking at me and addressed me.

“What is your name?” the doctor asked, his blue eyes looking in mine. I’d seen this doctor from the show before.

“My name is Hector. I am human, a being part of an innovative species capable of magnificent feats in the fields of medicine, architecture, engineering, technology and so on.” I said to them. Both the doctors and the nurse held flabbergasted expressions with their mouths agape. I thought if adding those little tidbits about humans might help convince these jack-offs to let me go - I should avoid telling them what humans are actually capable of.

“How is it possible for your species to do that?” said another doctor I did not recognize.

“We have the ability to think and reason but we owe most our success to these.” I wiggled my digits in front of them to show off my hands. “Now let’s cut to the chase. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in hospital so can I go into the town now?” I responded, exasperated. I’m going to be blunt with these guys. The faster I can convince them, the better. Finally, the same doctor with the caramel coat spoke up, his blue eyes boring into mine again.

“Well, you aren’t showing any signs of bleeding and the scars have disappeared. So I would say that you are free to go.” He told me. I grinned at the first bit of good news in a while. “However, we don’t exactly trust you after the fiasco you pulled yesterday.” the doctor said. They are still holding that against me? I’m going to set something straight.

“Look, Doctor.” I spat out that last word. “I know why you are suspicious of me. I mean, a different species randomly appearing out of thin air. It being capable of speech and escape, no less.” I told them. “However, that escape attempt was of a good reason.” I continued.

“And what reason may that be?” a doctor off to my side bluntly asked. I looked at him.

“I was scared, okay. I panicked because I had absolutely no idea where I was. I was greeted by a new species I’ve never encountered.” I looked at Redheart and she looked away in embarrassment. “I know what I did was over-the-top but what would you do if you were in that situation?” I asked him. He furrowed his brow and gave me a sympathetic smile.

“I’m sure it would be very startling if I was in that spot. Wouldn’t you two agree?” He looked at the two doctors behind and they nodded in agreement. The caramel doctor faced me again.

“Do you promise to behave yourself once you're out there?” he asked me, a serious look on his face.

“Yes, sir. I swear to you that I will not get into any problems once I am out of this establishment.” I told him, determination and honesty ever present in my expression. He adjusted his glasses and smiled at me.

“The exit is down this hall. Take a right. Good luck and please, don’t make me regret this.” Satisfaction filled me as he said those words. I was finally out of here! Granted, I could have just sneaked out but whatever. He smiled at his colleagues and turned to the nurse, ever present throughout the entire exchange.

“Nurse, tell the other ‘special’ patient that he is ready to leave. He has no brain damage nor any other grievous injury. Good luck, young colt.” He said. I could have corrected him but he left before he could say anything. The other doctors gave one more look and disappeared down the halls.

“Well, I should go get your friend. Take care.” Redheart turned to leave but I stopped her with a grunt. She turned to me, and before she could ask what was wrong, I hugged her. She felt soft and fuzzy. I felt her hoof wrap around my neck, she was returning the hug. Hugging the nurse was like hugging a pillow fresh out of the wash. She was soft and cuddly and smelled like... sweat and frustration.

“I need to get going. Have a nice time in Ponyville. See if you can reach Town Hall without making a scene.” She chuckled as she let go. Redheart waved her hoof at me and turned the corner, oblivious to my blank expression and shivering body.

“...That must have been why she was blushing.” I said aloud. The blushing at the mention of the tux guy. It made sense. She and Zero...

Dropping the subject quickly, I turned on my heels and made my way down the hallway, ignoring passing nurses and patients.

I passed the sliding doors that led out into Ponyville, looking at my jacket and dusting it off in middle of doing that. I looked up and leapt back. In front of me were hundreds of eyes looking straight at me - straight into my soul, perhaps. In front of me was a clear blue sky, a cartoony village, and ponies. Colorful, pastel, blinking, breathing ponies.

“Holy shi..”

Flash!

A bright light blinded me. I couldn’t see a thing...


(S)

I woke up feeling refreshed, yet my bones were kind of achy from the stiffness of the hospital bed. I remembered last night with a sudden rapid change in my heart beat, and my face went red. Did that all really happen? I asked myself. Yet, it felt as real as my own breathing, as if it had affected my entire body. The memory of the night prior was enough to stir several feelings up in my mind. I sat up in the bed, wiping a hand down my face in slight embarrassment.

I looked to my right side and saw her there, back towards me. Hesitantly, I placed a hand on Nurse Redheart’s flank - emblazoned with her cutie mark, of course - grabbing some of the white hair between my thumb and forefinger. She feels real enough, I thought, soft, furry and.. squeezable. At the last part, I looked away from her and took back my hand. I wondered how exactly to feel at the moment, but it was difficult to realize any of the emotions being tossed around inside me. With a soft sniffle, I heard her wake slowly from her deep sleep - I turned my head back around to watch.

The mare with a pink mane rolled over onto her back, rubbing her eyes with both hooves before reaching forward and grabbing the hair tie I had taken off her last night. Clumsily slipping her hair back into the bun it had been yesterday evening, Redheart looked a lot more tired than I was. Finally noticing my gaze on her, she turned slightly and smiled gratefully. “I don’t think I’ve slept that well in ages,” Redheart commented, before opening her mouth and yawning widely.

The nurse-pony stretched her limbs until a few joints made popping noises. Redheart looked at me for a second, then suddenly wrapped me in a warm embrace. After a few awkward seconds, I did the same with her. Quickly, she pulled off and grinned before setting the nurse’s cap back on her head. “Thanks for the kind words..” she said, then winked. “And the good time!”

After another little nap together, I discovered that Redheart had gone, probably to go to work. I scratched my head anxiously, wondering if anyone else would find out about this mishap of mine. Getting up slowly, I made sure every limb was still in proper working condition. Doing the same as the nurse-pony when I got onto both feet, I stretched widely with a loud yawn. Then I pulled my tux and pants back on, making sure to at least look decent on my exit. Walking out of the room and into a hallway, I checked around for any other doctor or nurse. It seemed to be just me.

Continuing on, though, I saw a group of doctors. Instead of trying to hide or run like a suspicious person, I tried to maintain a normal gait and kept my head up. Even though they had quieted their voice, they must not have realized just how well human ears worked; I could hear them very well.

“Is that the same thing from earlier?”

“No, no, it’s a different one.. but I think it’s one of those.. what did the other one call itself?”

“I think it said it was a ‘hooman’..”

“A hooman, yes, it’s another hooman.”

At the last remark, I grew irritated. “I can hear you, ya know?! And.. it’s ‘human’, not ‘hooman’!” I growled, to their astonishment. The group of doctors dispersed in the direction I had came from with some more frenzied whisperings that I could only hope to discern. While I was looking back at them, I stumbled against another pony in front of me. Briefly forgetting how much shorter they were, I stared straight ahead for a second before looking down.

It was Nurse Redheart, as you might have guessed, and she didn’t seem to have minded the bumping. “Oh, hello. I was just looking for you,” Redheart said, regarding me stoically - though, she was still slightly blushing. “I was told to tell you that you are free to go when you wish.” Then she turned around, waving her flank purposely at me before continuing ahead - I stared up at the ceiling instead and dug both sets of fingernails into my face to ignore the seduction. It was already awkward enough that yesterday was no dream, but to be tempted a second time..

Since I was free to go - I would’ve gone anyways - I went down the hallway after Redheart, lightly jogging even though you’re not supposed to do that in hospitals. A few surprised doctors called out as I went by them, but they probably just wanted to sample my blood or something. I kept going until there was a Y-split in the hallway, at which point I was confounded. How in the hell is this place so big and maze-like?! I thought, frustratedly. However, a certain pink-haired mare stuck her head out of the left hall, then disappeared back inside it. It took me a second to realize that her hair was down and the nurse hat was gone - I gulped.

Checking first to make sure there was no exit in sight in the right hallway, I went down the left one and carefully observed my surroundings. As you would imagine, it was tile flooring and simple paint, with the occasional reminders on what certain-colored alerts meant and what to do in case of emergencies. There were also some doors, but they seemed to be all locked, so I kept going. At the end of the hallway was another door, but upon trying the handle, it was unlocked.

I ran my palms down my face in mild surprise, but the sight lying in wait for me in the room was predictable. Other than the hospital bed in the center of the tiles, the room was bare. However, on that hospital bed was Nurse Redheart on her back, splaying her legs and heatedly dragging a hoof up and down her naughty bits. I almost exited right then and there, but my eye was caught even if I didn’t want it to be.

Redheart smiled lightly as soon as she noticed my presence, using her unoccupied hoof to wave me over. The logical side of me reminded me how weird it’d be if I had a similar experience to last night.. but as we all know, a male’s logical side hardly ever wins over in situations like this. Moving over to Nurse Redheart’s side, I give her an inquiring stare. Her deep blush made me cringe a little, but when she waved me closer again, I put my ear next to her mouth.

I could barely hear what Redheart said, yet I could still make out what it was. “Work today was hard.. I need a good rutting..” she softly whispered to me, the hot breath from her open mouth smelling like peppermint. I was grinding my teeth together, but regardless it was impossible to contain the inevitable erection. I don’t know if I was cursing or praising my luck at that point, but I removed the now-uncomfortable pants once more, leaving the tux on.

I prepared to insert for the second time, then.. I woke up. Sitting up in bed, I noted that I was alone in the hospital bed from before. Annoyed, I got up quickly and changed into my clothes again. This time I went straight for the exit, and wasn’t sidetracked by any lustful nurses or mazelike hallways.

I did, however, see Nurse Redheart off to the side speaking with a doctor about a patient. When she saw me, she stopped mid-sentence and turned around to wave a hoof. Returning the gesture with my hand, I wondered if that kind of treatment was a given around here.. I shrugged the thought off and walked through the sliding doors that marked the exit.

The other human - I think he said his name was Hector - was standing there dusting off his jacket. When he looked up from doing that, Hector jumped back a little. Wondering why, I turned to stare at whatever he was gazing at. My jaw dropped - an almost literal sea of ponies was in front of the hospital, all looking at the both of us. The sky was a perfect blue color, the town looked peaceful aside from this event, and the ponies were of so many varieties.. much more than even shown in the show!

Flash!

Suddenly, a bright light speared my vision with its intensity and I yowled, holding my eyes with my hands. I was momentarily stunned.
