“He snores really bad.”

“Shush! It’s probably because he’s in pain!”

*snicker* “it’s pretty funny!”

You were awoken with the sounds of several familiar voices. Oh lord, it’s the five of six ponies in the flesh. You let out a drowsy groan, and sat up, wincing in pain in the process. The voices suddenly came to a halt. You opened your eyes and looked at the five ponies standing before you.

“You girls really like to watch me sleep don’t you?” You ask with a smirk. “What’s this? Twice now?”

“Well, Goodmorning Anon, heh heh.” Said Rainbow, nervously scratching the back of her head. “We just thought we’d stop by and check in on ya, you know?”

The rest of the ponies remained silent. You let out a weak chuckle.

“Righhhhhht.” You said. “Isn’t the nurse supposed to let you in with my permission?”

“Well, ya see...” Applejack started. “It was kinda important to us so we may or may not have forced our way in, if ya understand what I’m sayin’”

“Well not me!” Rarity added. “I kept my ladylike posture the entire time, thank you very much.”

“Oh don’t lie, Rarity!” Said Rainbow. “You got a little rough in the lobby just like the rest of us!”

“Did not!”

“Did too!”

“Does it matter?” You asked.

“Maybe it does!” Said Rarity. “I’d like to keep a good image even around aliens, you know.”

“Since when do we call him an alien?” Asked Rainbow.

“Ah mean, technically speakin’, he is one.” Said Applejack.

“But he’s super duper nice!” Added Pinkie.

“Yeah, I don’t mind that he’s not from here.” Said Fluttershy.

“I feel like this is a little more chaotic than it needs to be.” You said.

“Yeah he’s right,” Said Rainbow. “Everypony just take a chill pill.”

“Thank you, Dash.” You said. “Now, What brings you to my room?”

“Well is it wrong to simply check in on a friend?” Asked Rarity.

“Relax, I’m joking.” You said with a small laugh. “By the way, these clothes are pretty messed up, could we get me some new ones at some point?”

“Of course darling,” Rarity Said. “Anything for a friend.”

“Word, sounds good.” You said. You stood up from your bed, wincing in pain from your injuries.

“Should you be doin’ that, Anon?” Asked Applejack. “Ya look pretty bent outta shape.”

“Yeah, Maybe you should rest.” Said Fluttershy.

“Do I really look that bad?” You asked. Rarity pulled a pocket mirror out of her bag and levitated it to you. Holy shit, you got fucked up. You had a black eye, your nose was black and blue, and you had several cuts on your face. “Damn, you’re right. I got my ass whooped, heh heh.”

“Yeah, but not as bad as you whooped the manticore!” Said Rainbow.

“That was awful brutish of you back there, Anon.” Said Rarity. “I can’t say I expected something like that from a being like you.”

“Hey, what’s wrong with being a brute?” You ask. “Lets the manticores know not to fuck with me.” You say with a smug grin on your face.

“That’s wussup!” Said Rainbow, giving you a fist/hoof bump.

“Right...” said Rarity, looking slightly disappointed.

“Ah hope ya know what yer doin’ tho,” said Applejack. “It wouldn’t be too good if ya lashed out like that on somepony for lookin’ at ya funny er somethin’.”

“Don’t worry, Anon would never do something like that, he’s very gentle and sweet once you get to know him.” Said Fluttershy.

“Way to make me look like a softie.” You said.

“Oh... I’m sorry...” said Fluttershy, getting quiet.

“Chill, don’t sweat it.” You said. “On a side note, how’s Twilight?”

“Well, she’s kind of in a coma.” Said Rainbow.

“Oh shit, really?” You ask. “That sucks, do we know when she’s gonna get out of it?”

“No, but the doc has her in good hooves.” Applejack said. “All we can do is wait.”

“Yeah, I guess you’re right.” You said. “Has Celestia heard about all of this?”

“Yeah, she actually wanted to meet you as soon as you got better.” Said Rainbow. “She wants to introduce you to the city, she felt like it was time to do so and everypony is talking about you!”

“For real?” You ask in confusion.

“Yeah, you’re like a celebrity!” Said Pinkie Pie, hopping up and down.

“For what?” You asked.

“Well, word spread quickly that you risked your life to save Twilight, who already has a high status around here.” Said Rarity. “Your heroic actions have not gone unnoticed, Anon.”

“This feels oddly cinematic, but I’ll take it.” You said with a shrug. “To be honest, I could probably just leave the hospital now and talk to the princess if I wanted to.”

“No no mister,” said Applejack. “Ya need to rest, take it easy for a while.”

“Or what?” You said, crossing your arms and giving off a cocky smirk.

“You’ll have to find out, parter.” Said Applejack. Whether that was a challenge or not, you accepted. You pulled the IV out of your arm, getting a response of disgust from the ponies in your room. “Now just what in the hay do ya think yer doin’?”

You have no response. You walked over to the window of your room and opened it up. “Hey, stop right there!” Applejack said, stepping forward. You sat on the windowsill, back facing the outside.

“Or what?” You said jokingly, just before you fell backwards out the window and took flight. Anon, you are one slick son of a bitch. Taking flight was painful, but you endured it. Your need to speak with Celestia was greater than the pain. Besides, you were far from a bitch. You could see the castle in the distance, so the flight shouldn’t take long anyway. As you neared your destination, you grew slightly excited for a town introduction. It’d be nice not to get weird looks from all the residents...

*two days earlier, Celestia’s PoV*

You were casually sitting in the throne room with your sister, Luna. You’ve had a slow week, nothing good has happened. You could fall asleep at this point, it was so slow. Well, scratch that, something is off. You felt it, sensed it. You picked your head up and looked at Luna. She seemed to notice as well.

“Did you feel that too?” You asked.

“We did. It matches Anonymous’ energy.” Luna said.

“It wasn’t very powerful, but most definitely recognizable.” You said. “What do you think it could be?”

“Good question.” Said Luna. “Shall we have Twilight bring him here?”

“That would be wise.” You said. “I’ll call her later. I am going to take a quick nap.”

“Do as you wish.” Said Luna. “See you when you awaken.”

“You as well.” You said, walking to your quarters.
