Author's Note

Excuse me for the late update, my laptop just recently got destroyed and while it is summer, it’s really hard to adjust to a drastic change of time and schedules today, and also using an old computer is really harder than it looks, welp. CYA!
(excuse me for being vague, i got stuff to do when in summer)

To the needles?!

You are Limestone, and right now you feel very refreshed as you slowly come back to reality after a Very good and long nap on the seat, as you slowly go back to your original sense you notice something on your cheek and in you shoulder too, you felt it as living and moving and occasionally moves around synching your movements too, then slowly, you realized that you were sleeping on someone’s shoulder and they didn’t tell you about it? You were going to give him a piece of your thoughts
You groggily stiff yourself and looked at the direction of where the noise was coming from as after you stood up you heard a Manly groan. Then suddenly it hits you, it was
“Anon!” You made a utter low exclaim, which made Anon snort in surprise as he looked at you with a Very surprised tone “Wha?!” he stammered completely caught off guard
You were about to speak but he caught you first “Limestone, Finally your awake” He Sighed in relief, which left you confused of to why, You scanned him and he doesn’t appear to be making any suddens
You were about to open you mouth when he again cuts you off “ It’s okay Limestone, no need to apologize about it” He smiled giving you a sense if reassurance, You were confused and you wanted answers
“Why do I have to apologize?” You hoarsely voiced, not knowing what the obvious that he was stating
He seemed perplexed by your sudden outburst , he seemed to be blinking out wild and as you were about to say another word, history repeated itself
“What?” Anon reacted “Why do you have to apologize, is because you’ve been sleeping on my broken shoulder” He calmly explained and grunted when your elbow unknowingly stumbled on his very bruised shoulder, “Sshhhhhh” He drifted his hiss of pain and continued “see?”
You looked down on his body and sniffed at his shoulder, you always knew your scent so it wasn’t that hard since he his near you and was currently looking at your act
He decided “uhh, what are you doing?” He questioned not knowing what your doing, of course you only heard him and did not respond, as you finished the act you can only imagine what pain he is in, so you decided to apologize again
You sighed in uncharacteristic manner and said “I’m sorry” you mumbled and in your thoughts you said ‘forgive me’ as you felt a little-no a unusually great regret and fear, this is not normal
You looked down and breathed in using your nuzzle and out, then you realized that seconds ago you were literally angry at him for no reason and the next thing is that you were in a regretted stat, you dare not to look at him and you tried to push the imploding feeling inside your chest and you were not doing a very great job at it. Until you felt something in your cheek, a hand
You face was lifted up and was forced to face him and he said “Hey I said you don’t need to apologize, it’s alright” he said, trying to restore your confidence through persuasion. It worked and you almost hugged him on the spot if it wasn’t for the awkwardness that brought with it
“Ponyville Station!” An conductor shouted in the back as if she have done this many times before, She gruffly looked at everycreature and said “Remember your things! I don’t want any complains about missing luggages!” And with that she promptly return to her station which is in the front seat of the tn
Then the next seconds was filled you and Anon putting your down bags in response of the Mare’s request, You carried the heavy looking bag but and placed it on your shoulder, elbows and hands, you sighed softly to the bag’s weight, Anon carried his too, just one which is a bit pathetic sight to you but laughable in it’s own, Looking down on the floor to avoid bumps by the chair, you rockily moved out of your seat and almost bump into the seat’s platform, your in the hallway of the train, and looking at Anon he looked like he is struggling in which shoulder he would use by carrying the bag with, the scene depicts him mirroring the same act as you did except he keeps switching the bag.
Then a light pressure was on your shoulder, you looked at the direction and listened “M’am could you please move already” An Hippogriff was politely asking you to move out of his way and you nod and said to Anon “I’ll meet you outside Anon!” You said those words as you simultaneously move outside to meet with him there
You clumsily bumped into objects and recently Somepony who didn’t see you coming with such a large amount of bags, Your struggle continued but as you looked back Anon was already on the Line of Ponies whom are looking at him curiously and possibly asking question of what he is , you already know what’s going to happen so you proceeded to go outside
You finally freed yourself from the continuing struggle that is the ‘train Lines’, Looking at the train entrance you saw Ponies and Creatures flow out of the train, You saw an Hippogriff, Pegasus’s, Unicorns, Earth Ponies and a human, You impatiently approached him and said
“What took you long?” You asked, wondering why he took so long on the train to simply get out and meet you
He scratched his head and said “Well. The ponies in there were really curious so I chat with them for a bit and tried to leave, But they were like fillies that were too curious so I ended up getting a block” He exhaled through his nose and said “nothing too serious, just some desperate questions”
You blinked, and gave him a nod of understanding, you already knew that Ponies across Equestria knew of Anon due to the State he was in, so you shrugged the thought and said “Let’s go, the hospital is this way Anon” You gestured him and he soon followed, Mostly unknown to you, you were blushing when you said his name and it compelled you to tell him the truth of why your always so irregular when around him but you decided to keep your mouth zip, as soon as you are done escorting Anon to the hospital the sooner your going to visit your sister here, or maybe she will who knows
You shrugged it off and as you walked around Ponyville, As you walked towards the Hospital with Anon, an bubble of thought came to you, Your sister. She knows Everypony in this town and she’s going to come to you in three, two, one

“Limestone!” An cheery voice was heard, in front of you, This is going to be a Very Long day

You are Anon, and right now, you were bewildered of how an Pink strip just came out of nowhere and started to talk in a fast way as possible, And then, you realized it
“Pinkie-“ Then you were flashed out
“Limestone! I’m glad that you came to Ponyville with me! Are you hear for a visit or are you here for the-“ Pinkie stopped When Limestone placed her hand on her maw, making incomprehensible sounds in the muffled tone but somehow managed to make it cheerful rather than a typical soft one
“Pinkie, I’m just here to visit the hospital and-“ Again like Limestone before me, was interrupted by her, With a gasp
“What happened to you shoulder!?” she pointed out with her index finger” Did Somepony hurt you Nonny! Was it a Meanie? Maybe a spider Wait! Maybe it’s a” Again Pinkie was once again stopped by Limestone’s fingers, you Also took the Liberty on explaining the the situation to make her shut, Because she can talk your ear off sometimes and when you talked about it about her friends they said “You’ll get used to it” Is all they said to you when you try to broach the topic
“Pinkie, can you see us visiting the hospital” Pinkie shaked her head and Limestone again exclaimed” Look, were going to discuss this After we Let him go to the hospital” Pinkie’s ear flicked and said
“We” She repeated, while simultaneously smiling and grinning, (It’s my trick!
“You heard me right Pinkie, You are going to point where the hospital is so we can get this over with” Limestone asked, while gazing for the hospital

“Okie dokie lokie! Follow me!” She hopped on the ground and keep doing it like her typical self, the two of you proceeded to follow the Pink Mare Which is Hopping and while keeping a smile on her face on the doing

Looking nervously at the field and a sign that clearly displays says ‘Ponyville Hospital’ you just hoped that the treatment would be swift or if you are lucky just a check-up, in honesty you were nervous, at the white plain walls of the hospital, the beeping sounds of the monitors, the traumatizing pain in the mine
It made a chill in your bone as you shudder at the sight, smell, and phantom hearing of the past you
Suddenly in the midst of thinking a voice snapped you out of it “You alright there Anon?” you drew your head back a little then saw Limestone staring at you behind her shoulder, She seems to be reading you and you tried to hide the fact buuut “are you thinking of something” She asked you a question, yeah you’re not going to lie to her and the reason is that she’s a living lie detector at times and your not going to take any chances when she’s trying to get you a favor or something
“Yeah” You nodded trying to get her off your trail, but she caught up
“What do you mean by that?” She interrogated, making a offensive stance
“I was just thinking of other stuff, you know daydreaming” you threw an excuse to avoid the topic, but Limestone’s determination and will was strong so
“daydreaming, of what?” she flatly said, but as you looked closely she seems to be, tinted red in her cheeks, but nonetheless it could be your imagination
“Of…” You didn’t thinked this far, it left you in a vulnerable position to be coarse
“You can tell me what’s bothering your mind Anon” She then fixated both of her eyes on you while simultaneously let her sister Pinkie to lead them
“*Sigh*” You blushed slightly “the hospital” You hesitantly said, making sure it has characters of a scared man
She giggled a bit, and you went wide eyed at how cute her giggles are, and even how feminine she is, in so you naturally blushed at how she is, making you want her
She covered her mouth to avoid another gag and said “you sound scared at the hospital aren’t you?” She then sounded a bit, sympathetic?
You lowly nodded and said “Yeah, because of something” You lowered your head a bit as the full blown memory made your day a bit more depressing…then Pinkie came along
“ Everythings okay Anon” you were startled when she said, that “your not under that meanie babonie that you call you boss” she carefully, yet cheerfully tried to dispel the gloom that is my past
Limestone was standing there, absorbing the information like some kind of sponge, she looked at me and said
“Yeah, your not in your old world Anon” that also cheered me up, making me a bit stronger on a resolve level, she smiled in acknowledgment and nodded before saying
“Let’s go, And lets hope it’s quick “ And with that, Pinkie hopped and closed her eyes while doing it, How she does it still alludes you curiosity but, meh its Pinkie Pie she defies some logic in argument of reasons sometimes.
Looking at the dreadful sight again, you opened your eyes and saw an normal looking looking hospital, clearly an sight to be not scared off, there are Ponies that are comforting their Foals, fillies and Colts that are scared of the hospital as you do, some are given candy while others where on a verge of tears but they were comforted by snuggles and nice words, It was heartwarming and an unexpected sight from a hospital that you visited from.
Walking to the reception area you looked at the receptionist whom is writing some medical something something, You do not know what it is but at least you can pretend to understand it.
Limestone cleared her throat which coincidentally caught the attention of a rather half-occupied receptionist and said “is there an reserve for Anon?” Limestone asked, The nurse nodded and said
“This room, here” She handed a note and a key was with it, Limestone then nodded and the receptionist lazily picked up an piece of paper on her side and grumbled to herself and the way she mover he r lips she must’ve said ‘I’m busy’
Looking at the walls it was grey white and it kinda looked as if it was more of a shelter than a hospital one, but at least its sanitary one.
Looking at the hallways nurses and doctors all marched busily than the receptionist at the back, they’re all saying medically stuff related, you may know the basic of first aid but this is just another level.
Sighing as if it was spiting you decided to talk to Limestone “Where’s the room Limey?” You said her nickname but as soon as you realize an sharp joint hit was pressured on your back, a clear expression of pain was in you face if you could see it, it was like comb hitting at you in full speed except the comb is living one, ‘man, earth ponies are strong’.
“I said don’t call me that” An seethed voice was emanating from your behind, you peered over your shoulder and saw Limestone clearly narrowing her eyes at you while Pinkie was just standing there mouth wide open enough for a something to happen.
“Pinkie” She fixated her baby blue eyes at you “close your mouth, you may eat a fly at that” You grinned in a instant at that random joke, You then laughed at your own corny and overused joke as too Pinkie laughed, you humorously griped you kneecap and kneeled down at the funny joke at the expense of the crutch, but you don’t care this was really a good moment and you wanted it to be a bliss
As the final laughter came out of you. You looked at Pinkie as she smiled at you proudly and then you looked at Limestone whom was also grinning at the joke that you made, She must’ve laughed too if she’s smiling.
Amazing of what you can do with laughter “so, where’s my room?” you asked, feeling a bit more confident now
“In here” Limestone then approached the door and twisted the door handle to find a typical hospital room, a bed, fresh water, a night stand with a chair and a curtain near the bed. You looked at the room with dull as you wondered if all hospital room looks like this or did it copied the ones you laid on.
Limestone then guided you to you bed, you then turned on your back and sat down on the bed, the hospital bed was comfortable unlike the one that you experienced, Pinkie bough out her color pen and started to draw some art, but Limestone stopped her before she does, Where did she got the pen from?
“Alright, were going to wait for the doctor to check on you” Limestone assured as she pulled out the chair from the nightstand and sat down, Pinkie then proceeded to scoot with Limestone and in response Limestone sighed, the way they are sitting is a bit awkward because the chair is small for the two of them to fit so they looked like they are lying on each others back, chuckling heartedly the two of them shot a look at you of why are you laughing and said
“What’s funny?” Pinkie asked, not understanding the humor
“Oh, yeah I forgot to tell you that I used to have a little brother” you announced, Limestone Nodded in understanding and Pinkie’s ear flicked, she stared at you with a widest smile and said
“You have a little brother” it was not repeat, it was a joyful geeing
You chuckled even more “Yeah. And he’s a feisty one, brave but is really, how do you say it? Take in, ask question later guy” you chortled at a particular event

“Oh! Oh! Do you have any stories about the two of you, Limestone already told you ours, but know it’s your turn” she insisted, you put a small smile and said “Alright, no need”
You cleared your throat before swallowing a lump and readied to tell a story “once me and my brother used to hang out in the river stream, we were following a stag with slings and conker so we can wrestle with it just for funs” The two of them listened with anticipated silence.

“I almost caught it but not before kicking me with his hooves but it just so happens to give my brother enough time to throw the weak tie conker onto the stag’s leg, essentially tripping him, when we realized what we’ve done we tried to high five, but he fell unto a rotten log, after the incident he was sent to the shaman’s house because he was covered in poop, spiders and caterpillar infused poop” the two sisters looked disgusted but they were trying to restrain something “ I don’t know how poop managed to get there but it was disgusting and it basically made my brother scared of logs, when he turned 9 he never went to a single forest ever since. The end!’ You huffed in expiration and happiness and looked at them for a second time.

And right now, it was just a time to continue the storytelling, but Pinkie would probably insist so yeah, you’ll just see
