The square room wasn't big, only 3 by 3 meters with two soft beds placed snuggly by the wall, facing the door. The room looked... rather tidy, its wall, floors and most distinct features filled with pristine clean whiteness, resembling a ward in a hospital, the crispy [2014-12-10 14:35:27] clean sheets enveloping beds... and two resident mares who were resting under them. Two large windows behind were casting light into room's confines, but were slightly shaded as to prevent too much daylight pouring inside as not to disturb... patients. [2014-12-10 14:37:06] All would've been well if not for a small mechanical clock on the wall that resembled a small little house. With its arrows reaching 12 o'clock, the little thing started to chime out the time, with a little artificial coo-coo bird disturbing the silence with its clicking sound, disturbing two sleeping mares.

[2014-12-10 14:57:21] As chimes passed by the mechanical bird disappeared back into its clockhouse, with the quiet ticking-and-tocking of pendulum resuming it's work... Across the bed, Tali could see Crystal, resting in the same, cozy bed... [2014-12-10 14:57:22] * CrystalShine painfully opens her eyes "Arrgh, what happened?" looks around and waits for her eyes to adjust to light. [2014-12-10 14:59:09] * Tali pushes herself up, wincing a bit as she unintentionally stretched out the healling wounds on her side.  She looks over at crystal again as she speaks up "I... Crystal?  Am... I still dreaming?" [2014-12-10 15:01:15] The feeling of awakening was heavy as if both mares have slept only for several hours, before being disturbed... Some patches of their bodies were covered in pristine clean bandage, especially all tears and scratches that covered Tali's body and Crystal's chest. [2014-12-10 15:01:41] * CrystalShine turns to her, finally able to focus her eyes to her surrounding "Uh... Tali? Where are we? I... Remember Timberwolves... Pain... Are we dead?" [2014-12-10 15:01:53] However, the bodily pain was almost not present except for a slightly numbling and stinging sensation under wraps... [2014-12-10 15:02:26] * Tali looks over at crystal with a pained expression. "Please tell me you didn't..." [2014-12-10 15:04:14] "No, we couldn't..." suddenly gasps, turns around and scans the rest of the room "Where is Green? Did you see him? GREEN!" shouts in panic. [2014-12-10 15:06:01] * Tali glaces around but the small room couldn't possibly have a place to hide him... execpt maybe under the beds but she doubted he would be there. "Green too?  Crystal what happened?  Did the wolves come after you all?" [2014-12-10 15:07:24] * Tali buries her face in her hooves "Damnit, Crystal, I'm sorry!  I tried to lead them away...  there must have been more than I saw..." [2014-12-10 15:07:39] A quiet knock on the door disturbed their conversation--- only to stop at the sudden shout and open seconds later, "O-Oh my, what is...", a pink head pokes into the room. A young looking mare with icy blue eyes looks at the shouting mare "M-Miss, is... is everything okay?", she asks and opens the door slightly more, squeezing herself inside. The pony was wearing a clean white nurse [2014-12-10 15:07:40] outfit with her purple mane neatly tightened up into a knot behind. [2014-12-10 15:08:49] The earth pony stayed at the door, looking between two with concern, especially Crystal. [2014-12-10 15:09:08] * Tali peeks up at the pony from behind her hooves, "Um... were are we?" [2014-12-10 15:09:13] * CrystalShine turns to mare "P-Please, where are we? Is Green here too? What happened?" [2014-12-10 15:09:14] *where [2014-12-10 15:15:29] The earth mare's eyes flop a bit down as she smiles at two, sympathetically, "Don't worry, you two. You are currently staying in St. June's Hospital-- um...", the pony took a hesitant step, closer to their beds, first, approaching Tali's and picks up a... chart that was attached to its front, giving the paper a quick look over... [2014-12-10 15:17:22] "But what about Green? He was with us too! Is he here? In another room? Please, I have to know..." the last words were almost whispered. [2014-12-10 15:21:09] The mare smiles brighter and proceed to trot to Crystal's bed to repeat the same procedure, though her eyes did glaned at the panicing mare with unsureness, "Green... uh...", she made a stop and rubbed one of her forelegs against the other one as her eyes glanced over the room, "... Green? D-Don't worry miss, I bet he is somewhere in here too?", he offers almost apologetic smile to [2014-12-10 15:21:09] Crystal and picks up her file, giving it a look over. [2014-12-10 15:21:50] "Ms... Tali and Crystal Shine, yes?" [2014-12-10 15:24:40] * CrystalShine nods, still confused by situation and frightened by the fact she doesn't know what's happening "Yes, but... How do you know that? How did we get here?"

As she sat down, the white outfit shuffled a bit to the side, just enough of time for Crystal to take a peek at the cutie mark that was there - a blue cross - before nurse's flank got covered [2014-12-10 15:29:40] again [2014-12-10 15:33:09] The nurse looked down into Crys' notebook and proceeded to read through it, "You were delivered into St. June's hospital...", her eyes narrowed a bit, before pronouncing "... almost two months ago!", with another apologetic smile [2014-12-10 15:35:11] *** WhiteLight_ (webchat@ppp-191-191.26-151.libero.it) joined [2014-12-10 15:35:39] * CrystalShine opens her eyes wide and tries to sit, hissing a little in pain caused by her muscles being stiff after two months of unconsciousness.

[2014-12-10 15:44:11] The nurse's worriesome expression mellowed down, immediately, as the mare rested down on the bed and carefully approached Crystal's side, resuming her smile "The pony who was filing the notebook has a peculiar writing, so, um, I don't know if you'll be able to-- but--", she stretched the notebook to Crystal and then looked at Tali with same warm features, "We wouldn't be speaking if [2014-12-10 15:44:12] you were dead.", the mare giggles and nods.

The air around two felt cold... chillier than it was before. When Crystals eyes started to search for her bags around, something small shuddered under clock's debris, bringing Crystal's keen attention to it. [2014-12-10 20:59:03] ... followed by a quiet chirp. [2014-12-10 21:00:24] * CrystalShine crawls to it, careful to not scare it "B-bird?"

[2014-12-10 21:06:46] * Tali watches still and silently from her location while Crystal tries to greet the bird, hoping not to scare it away. [2014-12-10 21:07:17] After a bit of time, the sound chips some more, before a little bird finally crawls out from under the wooden piece. The small bird looked similarly to the artifician one that two could've noticed in the ward... albeit alive. [2014-12-10 21:07:39] The bird's eyes were glowing with yellow light. [2014-12-10 21:07:48] [nnooopee] [2014-12-10 21:08:21] [>yellow light] [2014-12-10 21:08:36] * CrystalShine smiles at him "It was you who helped us out there?"

Birdie seemingly ignored Crystal at first, but by the end of her question, its gaze froze up right at her's... and then Tali's. [2014-12-10 21:12:30] "Hey... little guy.  Uh, thanks for helping us out there."

[2014-12-10 21:21:16] * CrystalShine nods to Tali, feeling they should do it together and helps her to carefully release bird's leg.

[2014-12-10 21:26:05] ... the bird chirps louder as if it was scared for the moment, recoiling back from two big figures, but the moment its leg gets released, darts up into air hovering in the middle of the room and facing both ponies, blinking at them with glowing eyes. [2014-12-10 21:26:05] "Hk'va-hal,  Chkry-sil ock'sa Tah-li'suns-re." a quiet whispering echo reached their ears, filling out the room's confine's as the sound of howling wind outside made the moonlit window creak together with walls.

[2014-12-10 21:33:44] The bird didn't seemed to vocalise the whispering noise, but elicits a chirp by the end, "Do'r n'eot has'veh lees'sh-to tim'e-f, 'suns-re.
