Celestia took Glacier back to the castle. "Thank you so much."
"You are my best friend. Is that not what we do?" She carried her into a spare room and onto the bed. "I'll get a nurse to see you." She walked out, and Glacier looked around in the room. "Pretty nice place." She muttered. A Pegasus guard walked down the hallway, and stopped in his tracks. "What are you doing in the princess's domain?"
"I'm her friend. She let me stay here. Might I ask of your name?"
"No." He continued walking.
"Good morning, guard."
"Greetings, princess." Celestia rolled a weird device with wheels into the room. "This is a wheelchair. It should get you mobilized again." She was getting ready to help her into the device. "Very sorry to interrupt, princess, but may I help her in?"
"Hmm...you may. I'll leave so you two can get settled." She left the room and the guard walked over. He removed his helmet to reveal a dark gray coat with a white and yellow mane. "I'm...Thunder."
"My name is Glacier." He slowly stood her on the ground. She moved one hoof. "AH!" She collapsed. "I'm sorry. Didn't know it was that bad." He put her into the contraption that held her back straight and used wheels to accelerate her slow movement. "Try walking." She hesitantly moved one hoof, and then another. No pain. "Thank you! I felt so useless before!" She trotted around the room, and ended up nose-to-nose in front of him. He blushed hard and she giggled. "Could we...see each other again?"
"Sure." He put his helmet back on and left, and Celestia went back into the room. "How do you like him? Oh, I meant it." She smirked. "I don't like him. Just because he's so kind and caring and has the prettiest coat and is so handsome doesn't mean I love him!" She turned as red as an apple, and Celestia laughed. "Sure, Glacier. I have a letter to send, and then I am going to the Summer Sun Celebration. Will you be joining me there?"
"Of course." Celestia went to her reading room and sent Twilight a letter asking her to go to Ponyville and make friends. Then they left in the royal carriage.
