Rainbow Dash lives an exciting life and is swiftly becoming the most daring, awesome pegasus in all of Equestria. She would gladly give it all up, though, just to confess her love to Applejack.
"Hrmmmfff!" With a wind-up kick, Rainbow Dash cleared the last of the clouds over Ponyville.
"Just one more drill, and we'll be ready for the tree-clearing!" Thunderlane explained to Candy Mane. "I've gotta say, I'm super pumped!"
"Wow..." Candy Mane tilted her head aside while in mid-flight. "Just how many trees are you going to rip up?"
"Well, that is going to take all four cyclones," Thunderlane said. "But the idea is to coordinate them into a counter-clockwise swirl and sweep the northern edge of Everfree."
Candy Mane giggled. "You still didn't answer my question."
"Oh! Uhm..." Thunderlane tapped his chin. "None of the living trees. And the Cloudsdalian Commission already worked with the local wildlife ponies to move all fauna from the location—not that there was much living there already."
Rainbow flew over. "Basically, it's a bunch of dead things with dead roots that have no business being there anymore." She swiped the sweat from her brow. "We're just cleaning up shop so that mother nature will have a new, fresher earth to grow in."
"So, in a way, you're helping the Everfree?" Candy Mane remarked.
"Totally!" Rainbow grinned. "Ponies helping nature! It's about as pegasus as 'pegasus' gets."
"Hah! Nice..." Candy Mane grinned. "Almost makes me wish I was on one of the tornado teams."
"You can still help out," Rainbow said. "Just head on over during one of our drills and provide moral support."
"Or an extra pair of wings in case one of the ponies in Rainbow's team collapses dead." Thunderlane winked.
"Hah!" Rainbow planted her hooves on her flank with a hard smirk. "That's some talk coming from a stallion on the lowest scoring team so far!"
"H-hey..." Thunderlane brushed the back of his neck, blushing. "Cut it out! We had some no-show's, okay?"
"And I'll have you know that my team is comprised of the least squeaky wheels ever!" Rainbow cleared her throat. "Figuratively speaking."
"Heheh... I get it, Rainbow." Candy Mane smirked. "You must be so proud to be a team captain. I haven't seen you this enthusiastic in ages!"
"Heheheh... yeah, well..." Rainbow Dash shrugged. "Guess I've just got a chip on my shoulder lately."
"I'd say! You're actually talking to us! It's like you're a whole 'nother mare!"
"Don't be getting any crazy ideas now..."
"Heaven forbid." Candy Mane giggled as she and Thunderlane flew off to find another cloud. "You've got a reputation to protect, I bet."
"With a capital 'P.'" Rainbow said, smirking. She flapped her wings to join them when her eyes fell towards the rooftops of Ponyville. Her eyes blinked... then squinted.
Something was off about the marketplace. There was a single vendor conspicuously missing among the rest.
"Huh... weird..." Rainbow muttered aloud. "She must be taking a day off or something."
"Rainbow! Hey! We could use some help with this developing convection!"
"Sure thing! Coming!" Rainbow took one glance at the rooftops below, exhaled, then flew northeast with a calm smile.

taking a day off? I call bullshit
Uh-oh.
This doesn't bode well.
6911103 You and me both.
That's me! Definitely not a squeaky wheel.
Not ominous at all. Nope.
WHAT'S GOING ON APPLEJACK'S DEAD HOW COULD YOU DO THIS JE
It's nice to have a chapter without anything foreboding or concerning whatsoever.
Yep yep yep. Smooth sailing from here on out.

...the only things that could ever stop Applejack from working are sickness and family.
or Applebuck season.
Maybe she's spending some time with her new beau.
And so the foreshadowing begins
Has any one had any success somehow getting stories from fimfiction onto their kindle paper white? Thinking about getting one because I am soooo fucking sick of reading off of phone and laptop screens.
FORESHADOWING INTENSIFIES
But is it the foreshadowed event going to be good for RD or bad? I'm inclined to believe good in the long term.
Okay if Stu's actually a changeling im about to be blown away. Maybe so many people have "called" it that's it's become more ironic and unnexpected for him to be a changeling, than not to be?
I didn't even realize what was off about the chapter until I glanced at the comments.
Hope it's not anything serious.
I choked on my M&M when I read that. That's what I get for eating while reading one of JE's stories.
Wonder what that absence's about. I blame Stu, regardless.
6911200 On a very special episode of Appledashery, Stu Leaves, a changeling on his first assignment, comes to terms with his identity. He discovers that the love of mares just doesn't nourish him. Can he tell his Queen to buck it, and seek the love of a stallion (not Sharp Quill—SharpDoo) instead? Stay tuned to this station.
This is what skirts has done to us, rainbow nearly died multiple times and nobody panics, but applejack takes one day off work AND EVERY ONE LOSES THEIR MINDS!
6911312 Sharpleavery?
6911632 Somepony didn't read the fine print. SharpDoo.
6912261 Ah, of course.
It finally happened. Stu finally ate Applejack.
6914955
I don't think it's THAT kind of story.
6914764 Good luck, enjoy the journey and as always with a Skirts fic, read the comments.
6911200 I'm starting to think that he's not a changeling but... Maybe he's sick like Dash or dying IDK? That'd be one hell of a twist.
6915122
Drink applejack?
That's not ominous.

My thoughts exactly.
