Chapter 10
Weaklings POV:
I stood beside Sprinklejinx's bed and watched her lay motionless on the mattress. The doctors said she should be waking up soon. Diamond Tiara was so worried that all she could do is sit in the corner and softly wimper. The debris from the explosion tickled my throat. I coughed. Sprinklejinx mumbled a hhhmmm noise.
"Aunt Jinx, you're alive!" Diamond Tiara shrieked. Sprinklejinx fell off the edge of the bed and yelped.
"Where am I?" She asked. I was so relieved that she didn't find out yet. Sprinklejinx gets back up to her hooves like nothing happened. Diamond Tiara gasped. Sprinklejinx turned around and discovered her back leg had been amputated. She collapsed and then buried her face into the carpet. Diamond Tiara saw enough. She walked back to the waiting room with Pipsqueak. Sprinklejinx ears droop down. I swallow a lump in my throat. I was the lucky one. I was cowering in the corner so the explosion only burned off half my tail. My tail could grow back, but her leg never will.
"Hey, Jinx. Somepony sent you these," I said taking a bouquet of tulips in front of her. She lifted her head up and forced a tiny smile. She sniffed the tulips and then stuffed one in her mouth. After she got done eating the tulips she stood back up.
"Those tulips were so good. Did Honey Flower give them to me?" she asked.
"No. Honey Flower is still unconscious. The doctors still don't know if she's going to make it," I said biting my lip.
"I'm going to go check on her," Sprinklejinx said awkwardly trotting towards the door. I gallop ahead of her to block her path.
"You can't leave in this condition. You should be resting," I said.
"I'm fine," she lied as she tried to get around me.
"The only way you're going to leave this room is if I carry you there," I said trying to sound dominant. She smirked and levitated me up in the air. She staggered underneath me and dropped me to the ground. I grabbed her by the tail.
"Would you go be annoying someplace else?" she snapped. I let go of her tail and took three steps back. I frown and tears started drizzling down my face. Jinx stopped in her tracks and smacked her forehead.
"What is wrong with you?" she asked.
"You yelled at me," I sniffled. She rolled her eyes and climbed on my shoulder. I almost lose my footing because of the pressure on my back.
"There, are you happy now?" She asked with less attitude than I expected.
"Yes," I said.
"Can't you go any faster than that?" She asks resting her cheek against her hoof.
"You're crushing me," I said. I cringed. I probably shouldn't have said that.
"What's that thing in your mane?" she asked.
"What?" I asked.
"Tulip petals? IT WAS YOU! Thank you. Why?" Sprinkles said through mixed emotion.
"You're my favorite detective," I said.
"Okay, enough with the charity," she said.
She slides off my back and goes inside Honey Flower's room. Dream Chaser, Gentle Dream, Star Chaser, and Thunderwing are standing around the bed.
"Hi everypony," Sprinklejinx said. Everypony turns around. I saw Dream Chaser's face all charred up. I put my hooves over my eyes and screamed. Every pony glared at me and Dream Chaser lowers her little head in shame.
"You might as well home school me. That's how everyone is going to react when they see me," she says. A wave of guilt swept over me. What have I done?
"It's not that bad. It makes you look unique," Thunderwing said.
"Maybe we can let Princess Celestia fix it," Star Chaser said.
"Maybe she could fix Sprinkles's leg," I said. They all turned around.
"It's gone? I should have been there. I was so worried about Honey Flower. I forgot about you," Thunderwing said.
"Thanks," Sprinklejinx said dryly.
"Hey look, she's moving!" Gentle Dream said.
"Do I smell tulips?" Honey Flower asked. Thunderwing did a summersault in the air.
"I'm so glad you're okay," Thunderwing said.
"I'm glad I'm okay too," Honey Flower mumbled.
"My wish came true," Dream Chaser whispered in a perplexed tone.
"What did you wish for?" Star Chaser asked.
"I wished that we would all survive," the filly said.
"That was a great wish," I said.
"I guess you kept your powers after all," Gentle Dream said.
"That doesn't make any sense. Spoiled Brat wished that she was the only one who could get wishes. I guess I have more investigating to do," Sprinklejinx said pacing the floor.
"Who cares? We're all alive. That's all that matters," Thunderwing said. I nodded in agreement and turned out Honey Flower's light to let her get some more rest. I watched as Dream Chaser walked out with her parents. Poor kid. She never really had much of a chance to make friends. I thought to myself. Then I realized that Diamond Tiara and Pipsqueak could keep her company.
