The Doctors eyes slowly opened the following morning and he took in the solid white walls that were caging him. his hearts began pounding faster and the monitor did too.
As if on cue, Pen Weaver entered. Her flowing pink mane and shiny coat were wet with rain. "How is our patient doing today" she asked kindly, pulling open the white curtains to let in the light in the room. The doctor was breathing as fast as the oxygen machine would allow because it continued to shove air down his throat at a steady rate.
"Whats wrong?" Pen weaver asked coming over to stand by his bed and checking the monitors. he struggled to speak around the tube coming from his mouth but couldnt so he fell silent and closed his eyes.
"oh goodness!" she yelped 'i havnt had you hooked up to any protein ivs!' quickly she plunged a needle into his front hoof and he winced even though he could not feel it because of the pain medicine he had in him. She hooked an iv to the needle and began pumping the nutrients into him. 'its okay." she said softly to him as she shone a light in his eyes to check for shock. 'your doing very well."
Even though he was not. No one knew what was happening to him. She gently pulled his blankets back to examine the stitches she pulled away multiple layers of bloody gauz and looked at them. there didnt seem to be any new blood falling from them which was good. "Tell me if this hurts" Pen weaver said, placing one hoov at the nape of his neck for support and using the other to push at his chest. he merely ignored her. he was terrifyed. He wanted to go home to his tardis and he wanted to see salsa and lily.
Seeing how scared he was Pen weaver removed her hoofs and pulled the blanket back up. "I'm going to let your friends in now it'll be okay" she said quietly. 'Be careful with your stitches and don't move around too much because you could rip them" she said warningly as she opened the door for lily and salsa who came sprinting in.
"Doctor!" Lily cried 'are you okay? are you feeling any better?" she shoved her nose into his neck and sobbed while salsa closed the door behind pen weaver who left to get breakfast. the Doctor forced a smile and moved his hoof to stroke Lilly's head
'please get better! she cried into his neck 'please' her voice cracked and salsa pulled her away "be careful we dont want to upset him lilly" he said holding her back wile she cryed.
"I'm FINE!" The Doctor screamed his throat hurt terribly and blood began to bubble around his mouth as he yanked the ivs out of his hoof then carefully pulled the tubes out as well. "NO DOCTOR!" Salsa screamed as lily fell back and ran for the door to get pen weaver.
the doctor stood gingerly and hopped of the bed miraculously not braking any stitches. "Doctor" Salsa said stepping in front of the door. "you can not leave like this let them help you'
the doctor weakly tryed to shoulder salsa out of the way. he could barely breath without the oxygen and he fell to the floor weezing.
"i want to go home' he whispered before he sliped into darkness.
