Trixie was panting hard as she continued to walk through the forest, finally finding the end of the trail, turning into a cobblestone walkway, one she'd seen before. As she finally walked out of the forest, she saw a little cottage with multiple animals frolicking about, a small garden at the front with a little bridge and river, leading to the doorstep of the little home.

"Trixie believes she's seen this place before..." she said quietly to herself. She shook the thought away and began running, making her way to the hospital with Daniel. On the way there, she gained angry glares from everyone, but she ignored them and ran into the building.

The waiting patients, the doctors and nurses all saw Trixie and Daniel, accusing and angered glares shot towards Trixie, but she once again ignored them and dashed to the woman at the desk. "He... He needs help..." she said between gasps of air and gesturing to Daniel, who was still unconscious and bleeding, now pale as the white tile floor. The woman looked at her angrily and sighed, nodding her head and calling for doctors and nurses to bring a stretcher to the lobby.

Trixie smiled gratefully to the nurse and the nurse's eyes nearly popped out of her skull at the sight. The smile was actually genuine... No sarcasm or smug look behind it... But gratitude that nobody had ever seen from Trixie before. "Thank you so much... I appreciate it..." she said to the nurse as she followed the doctors that were carrying Daniel to the elevator in a stretcher. The nurse smiled back to Trixie and told her, "You're welcome... Trixie..." as Trixie got to the elevator and it closed.

~In the ER~

Trixie was sitting in a chair in the hallway as she heard rushed footsteps from down the hall. It turned out to be Zecora and Abigail, worried looks on their faces as they got to Trixie. "Tell me Trixie, where did you go to? And please tell me Daniel is with you..." Trixie's eyes pooled with tears hearing Daniel's name as she nodded slowly.

"Yes... Daniel's with Trixie... But... He..." Her voice was small and frail as the threatening tears fell from her glistening purple eyes, trying to reform her sentence. "But... He's injured... His arm..." she couldn't continue as she brought her hands up to her face and began to cry loudly. Abigail then remembered when Daniel first came to the garage.

~Flashback~

She was hiding in that same barrack but heard growling and bodies dropping. She opened the door quietly and crawled out, making her way to the railing of the top floor, looking down to see Daniel, his arm bleeding intensely and a weary look on his face. She also spotted the 3 dogs she'd been hiding from for almost a week. When she saw him walking in, she tensed up and ran to the barrack again, hiding.

~Back to the present~

"Danny's arm..." she said in a frightened tone of voice as she ran up to Trixie. "What'd the doctor say?!" Trixie didn't respond. She was to upset to even face Zecora and Abigail. Just then, a doctor with brown hair, a lab coat and whatever else a normal doctor would wear, walked out of the room, his latex gloves coated in blood. Trixie's eyes widen in horror as she ran up to the doctor, her eyes glistening with new tears, "Daniel... Is he..." the doctor looked down to her with confusion as he spoke.

"Oh, are you his girlfriend miss?" The doctor said in a British accent.

Trixie's face flared up at the very thought and she shook her head vigorously. "Nononononono, not in the slightest, we're his friends!" She said gesturing to Zecora and Abigail. The doctor nodded in understanding as he saw the tears drip from Trixie's eyes, "So... How is he?" she said, her voice unsteady and breaking. The doctor put a hand on her shoulder and smiled down to her reassuringly.

"He'll be fine. It's a good thing you got him here when you did, he was running on 2 pints of blood, easy. How did he get like that anyway?"

Trixie sighed, "He was... Protecting Trixie... From a group if timber wolves..."

The doctor looked surprised and amazed as he smiled and rested a hand on her shoulder, "Well, he must be a very brave man then..." he said with a reassuring tone.

Trixie nodded as Abigail and Zecora looked at Trixie amazed. She'd never cared about anyone this much before. Trixie's heart lifted from the depths of her despair as she thanked the doctor multiple times, "May I go see him?" the doctor nodded and stepped to the side as Trixie, Zecora and Abigail ran into the room.

Daniel was hooked up to a heart monitor and an IV stuck in his wrist, a blood pack connected. His arm was stitched up and bandaged professionally. His shimmering Dark purple eyes opened as he smiled at them all weakly, the color back in his face. "Hey girls..." he said in a weak but cheerful tone of voice. Trixie didn't even falter in her running as she jumped from the foot of the bed to on top of Daniel, pain surging through Daniel's body. "Ow..."

She hugged Daniel tight and nuzzled him, smiling and crying at the same time. "Thank Celestia you're alright! Trixie thought you might've died!" Daniel was still in pain, but smiled back, hugging her back. She blushed and looked him in the eyes, "Oh... By the way..." She said as Daniel looked up at her blushing.

"What is it Trix--" he didn't get to finish as she hugged him tighter, holding him tight as his eyes widened in surprise. She looked up at him with a dark blush as she spoke, "You saved Trixie's life... And Trixie is so grateful..."

Daniel's blush darkened as he shook his head. "N-No, that's alright... I wasn't going to let some makeshift wolf hurt my friend... And besides, I should be thanking you. You carried me here... I owe you my life too..." Trixie blushed from his words. Daniel then smiled nervously, "So..." Daniel hugged Trixie back, "Thank you Trixie."

"So... Um... Trixie?" Daniel said quietly to her.

"Y-yes Daniel?" Trixie's mind raced thinking of all the things he was about to say until...

"Could you please get off of me? It kinda hurts..."

Trixie looked at him puzzled and looked down, seeing she had jabbed Daniel in his arm with her knee. She jumped off of him and looked down to him. "Um... Sorry..."

Daniel smiled and said, "It's alright, not like my arm can get any worse, right?" Trixie giggled as Daniel chuckled.

While this went on, Zecora and Abigail stood at the door, blushing a dark maroon. Zecora walked up to Daniel and Trixie, clearing her throat. "I'm glad to see you are alright, you gave Abigail and I quite a fright."

Daniel frowned sadly at the fact. "I'm sorry."

Zecora smiled and hugged Daniel. "It's alright Daniel, I need no apology. There is one due, but not to me."

Zecora stepped aside next to Trixie as Abigail walked up to Daniel's bedside, tears streaming down her face from her autumn orange eyes. "Abby... I'm so sorry... I didn't mean to scare you. But im fine, see?"he said raising up his covered up arm.

Abigail looked down to the floor, and her tears continued to fall. Daniel reached over and hugged Abigail, trying to calm her down as much as he possibly could as she hugged him back, her sobs muffled into the crook of his neck. "I was so scared... When I heard about yer' arm... And all the blood on Trixie's cape... I thought I'd lost ya..." she whimpered between tears.

"Don't worry Abby, I'm not going anywhere..." Daniel said as he tried his best to reassure the little farm girl.

She sniffled and wiped away her tears, smiling at him sweetly, "Ya promise?"

Daniel nodded and hugged her tight, "I promise..." Abby smiled as they separated and soon, the doctor walked in.

"Well, he should be free to go tomorrow afternoon. Until then, he should get some sleep. He was hurt pretty badly. You should all go and get some re--"

"Trixie isn't going." Trixie said sternly to the doctor, surprising them all. Especially the patient himself. "Trixie will stay by Daniel's side, and nobody will stop her, no matter what any of you say." The doctor was about to protest but Zecora stopped him and shook head, telling him not to fight Trixie on it. The doctor understood and nodded in defeat.

"Fine, you can stay. I think it may do Daniel some good to have company while he's here. You two however, should go get some rest." the doctor told them as he left the room. Abby nodded and told Daniel she'd see him tomorrow, and Zecora said she'd walk her home. That being said, Zecora and Abigail left as Trixie stayed by Daniel's side.

"Why did you do that?" Daniel said to Trixie confusedly as she furrowed her brow in confusion.

"I wanted to keep you company, is that so wrong?" Daniel looked at her surprised and she noticed quickly. "What? What is it?" Daniel pointed at her.

"You said 'I' instead of 'Trixie'." Daniel said awestruck.

She giggled. "I am able to say 'I', I just talk in 3rd person to people I don't trust. You and Zecora are the only ones that know, so don't tell."

Daniel chuckled and nodded, "Promise. So... Why did you kiss me?"

Trixie's cheeks flared up as she looked into Daniel's eyes. "Well... That's how I thank people I care for... When Zecora let me stay with her I did the same." Daniel blushed at the thought of such a scene, but shook his head furiously, trying to forget the image.

"Oh, I se--" Daniel began until he was interrupted.

"But... The kiss for you... Was special." Trixie said blushing darkly and twiddling her thumbs in embarrassment, looking away from Daniel all together.

Daniel blushed darker as she spoke, be then noticed that something was missing. "My rings! My necklace! Where are they?!" he said looking at his arms and feeling around his neck, hair and legs.

"Um, those?" Trixie pointed to the necklace and 5 rings on the nightstand at his side. Daniel looked where she was pointing and sighed in relief, lying back down. Trixie giggled at the little show he put on looking for the jewelry.

"Well, the doctor said you should get some rest, so I'll let you go to sleep now." She smiled at Daniel and he smiled back, lying down cautiously so the machines and their wires didn't bother him.
He rolled onto his side, facing Trixie as she leaned against the chair. "Trixie."

She looked up at him, one of her light purple eyes looking up at him. "Yes Daniel?"

Daniel looked down with a blush on his face as he looked back up to her. "Could you... Could you sing to me?"

Trixie blushed as a response and thought for a moment. As she finished, she smiled and nodded, "Sure. I'll sing you a song I heard when i was small." Trixie cleared her throat and began to sing.

"Stars and moons and air balloons, Fluffy clouds to the horizon, I'll wrap you in rainbows and rock you to sleep again."

As she sang, Daniel's eyes slowly closed, his eyes becoming half-lidded. Trixie saw this and continued to sing to him.

"Teddy bears of Pink~ Ducks and lambs of white~ Don't you cry dear I'm here now, I will be your nightlight."

Daniel smiled as he continued to doze off more and more as he curled up on the bed, his body glowing a soft lavender as Trixie continued her singing.

"Stars and moons and air balloons. Fluffy clouds to the horizon. I'll wrap you in rainbows and rock you to sleep again..."

The glowing traveled to his injured arm, the stitches falling out as it began to close up.

"Smiles to cure the frowns. Twirling and tumbling in laughter. Someday life will always be, happily ever after. Nevermore will the storms come to destroy your little world... Nevermore will the waters rise, till the mountains no longer touch the sky..."

Daniel's arm glowed brighter as she hit the high note, healing as if the bite had never happened.

"Stars and moons and air balloons, fluffy clouds to the horizon, I'll wrap you in rainbows and rock you to sleep again.... I'll wrap you in rainbows... And rock you to sleep again~"

When she finished, Daniel was asleep, a small smile on his face and his eyes fully closed. The glow from before vanished, his skin color back to normal as Trixie stood and kissed his cheek and whispered into his ear, "Good night Daniel... I love you..." she smiled and sat back in her chair, dozing off herself.
