My Little Diseases - Chapter 8.5 - patched up

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Pinkie led Twilight into Ponyville Hospital.
She was obviously left very banged up after her fight with Rainbow Dash.
She decided to wear an old outfit to cover the majority of her body with a nice outfit to hide the injuries, so as to not make any of the residents of Ponyville worry while they made their way through town.

Twilight decided to wear her old birthday dress that Rarity made her, the plain yellow dress with a cute pink ribbon wrapped around the neck.
She also decided to hide the bite marks on her legs with some thick stockings that she found laying around, which were pure white, and actually complimented the dress very well, she didn't look too suspicious.

When they arrived in the lobby, they were greeted by Nurse Redheart, who gave them a warm smile and approached them as they walked deeper into the lobby.
“Hello Pinkie Pie! And Princess Twilight! How are you both?”
Nurse redheart asked, giving Twilight a bow as she approached.

Twilight couldn't help but give a soft smile as Nurse Redheart bowed to her. She never got used to such formalities.

“Well”
Pinkie Pie began.
“We need you to take a look at Twilight and patch her up a bit, she got herself hurt while practising flying and had a VERY rough landing.”
Pinkie explained, praying that the story was convincing enough.

Twilight gave an awkward smile to Nurse Redheart as she pointed to the main injury, her broken nose, which had slowed in bleeding, and the dried blood had dried against her fur, crusting it.

Nurse Redheart chuckled a bit at the predicament and gave a dismissive wave.
“Oh that won't be too much trouble. I get a lot of flyers coming to me for any random injury when they’re trying to make their wings stronger or trying a new trick, I'll have you out of here before you know it.”
Nurse Redheart reassured before leading the pair into a nearby examination room to take a closer look at Twilight’s injuries.

“Do you mind taking off your outfit, your highness? I’ll need to check the rest of your body for any injuries.”
Nurse redheart asked, giving the purple alicorn a soft smile.

Twilight smiled back and quickly agreed, explaining that the outfit was mainly there to keep Ponyville residents from worrying about her during their journey here.
Twilight quickly took off her outfit, folding it up and putting it to the side before setting onto the examination bed and laying herself out for Nurse Redheart to look over.

As Nurse Redheart looked Twilight over, she was very gentle, making sure not to accidentally cause any pain while examining her.
“Can you explain these bite marks on your legs?”
Nurse Redheart inquired, tilting her head at the alicorn.

“Oh, when I fell I landed in a bunch of trees, and there were critters living in those trees, like squirrels and other animals. And they bit me in self defence… Which I guess makes sense given how I just crashed into their home.”
Twilight quickly explained, trying to look as calm as possible, while mentally praying that Nurse Redheart would buy the story.

Nurse Redheart raised an eyebrow at Twilight, before looking back at the bite mark. It didn't make much sense given the size of the bite marks. But she knew she wouldn't get any other answer from Twilight or Pinkie, and so just rolled with it for now.

Nurse Redheart quickly grabbed some medical grade wound cleaner and began cleaning off any open wounds and lesions on her body before covering them up with bandages.
Making quick work of the minor injuries before turning to Twilight’s broken nose.

“Ok… Pinkie in my top drawer there’s a thick piece of rubber, it's normally used for supporting limbs while we cast them, but i’ll need it for this. Can you grab it please?”
Nurse Redheart asked, to which Pinkie quickly obliged.

Pulling out a cylinder of rubber that was about 2 inches thick. She handed it to nurse Redheart, which made Twilight open her mouth and bite down onto the piece of rubber.
“I’ll need you to bite down onto that, because unfortunately, this will hurt.”

Nurse redheart explained as she put a hoof on Twilight’s chin and the other along the bridge of Twilight’s nose.
Giving a quick count down from 3, a loud snapping noise echoed through the room, causing Twilight to bite down hard on the rubber and groan loudly, as Nurse Redheart quickly realigned the bone in Twilight’s nose to help it heal better.

The nurse then gently bandaged up Twilight’s nose, cleaning up around it as best as she could without tugging at the surrounding fur.
“Sorry about that, but it had to be done.” Nurse Redheart quickly says before taking the rubber cylinder from Twilight’s teeth and putting it on the side to be sterilised.

“Well… That’s you all done your highness. I hope you feel better soon, and come back in a few weeks so we can check how your nose is doing.”Nurse redheart explains, as Twilight puts her outfit back on, making sure it sat comfortably on her body before smiling at the nurse.
“Thankyou for everything Nurse Redheart. Ill see you in a few weeks.”

Twilight then made her way back to the castle with Pinkie, giving the party pony the occasional, playful nuzzle, kissing her cheek and wrapping her wing around Pinkie’s back.
Once they got home, they looked at each other with an evil, unsettling smirk… There’s a certain rainbow pony waiting for them to cure her of her current illness…

Time to get to work…
