My name Spectral Ace and it's my job as a paranormal investigator to separate fact from fiction. My life's work has taken me all across Equestria and beyond on my journey to find the truth. Today I'm here at Sweet Apple Acres to investigate sightings of a giant pony walking through the trees at night. Who might this pony be and why are there only ever blurry pictures of things like these. I mean come on how hard is it to invest in a good camera.
I start by interviewing one of the farm hoofs to get an idea of what I might be dealing with.
"So would you like to share what you do on the farm," I ask.
"Yup..." He says.
"Well go on," I urge.
"Yup."
"Oh don't mind Big Macintosh here isn't much of a talker. Probably not the best pony to interview, if you ask me," a mare says while walking up.
"Nope," he agrees.
"You must be Applejack, I presume."
"That's me alright," she says. "Big Mac why don't you run along while I finish up here. That alright?"
"Yup," he says as he trots off.
"Is he always that way?" I ask after he's out of earshot.
"Like you wouldn't believe."
I had been talking with Applejack for a little while when she drops a paranormal bombshell on me.
"You know at this point I think that it might even be Bighoof," shes tells me.
"Bighoof?" I couldn't believe it. I mean it's Bighoof, and I had the chance to finally be the one to find him, or her.
"Yes you heard me right Bighoof," she says. "Normally I don't believe in the paranormal, but for some reason I always believed in Bighoof. Probably because Big Mac is so big that another pony being a little bit bigger didn't ever seem to far fetched. You know what I mean?"
"Oh yes I understand you completely," I say trying hard not to fan over another Bighoof believer.
It was then that I knew that a stakeout was in order.
The moon was out and I was ready to begin our search.
"Alright I have everything ready to go. The traps are set-" I say just as one of the traps go off. "Well that was fast."
We begin to gallop to where the trap was, but a pain in my shoulder reminds me that I have to be careful not to re-open the stitches I had to get after my last case. I tell Applejack this and we slow to a quick trot.
We get there and we look up to see what we got. "Hold on, what is Big Mac doing in the trap?" I ask a little bit annoyed, "And why is he wearing stilts?"
"Big Mac!" Applejack proclaims.
"Wait shh, is he snoring?" I ask.
"Well I'll be," she starts. "I knew that he tended to sleepwalk, but never to this extent."
"I wonder what he's dreaming about?" I ponder, "Guess only Luna know the answer to that question."
"Yeah, only Luna," Applejack says almost sarcastically.
"Why'd you say it like that?" I ask her.
"It's a long story."
Well there you have it. Another case debunked by I Spectral Ace, paranormal investigator. Where will my journey take me, and what will I find? Will it be the truth, I don't know. I'll just have to wait and see.
