Appleloosa. A town built to withstand anything. But when mysterious visitors rob them of their very livelihood, Spitfire and Big Macintosh have to work together to save the town, as well as their developing friendship.




A/N: Story I just sort of came up with. I really like westerns, and Appleloosa seems like a great setting. Shipping is happening (wanted to see a change of pace in it), as well as violence (What'd you expect, it's a western.). Enjoy!

I'm not exactly up for shipping but the setting of the story seems interesting, reading the first chapter later.

Cool story bro, needs more John Wayne. Or maybee... Clint Eastwood.
And now, here's a realy random picture that's somewhat related:

Nope, you're not seeing things. It really is the front cover of a comic about cowboys fighting aliens. It even became a film, I think.

i like this story i hope you continue this i am deffinetly tracking

My only question is why aren't there more people reading this? I'm a big fan of buddy cop movies and westerns, so this fic appeals to both those interest. I like how you handled the friendship between Mac and Silverstar. The best thing about characters that don't have a lot of lines in the show is that you can write them anyway you want without pissing anybody off. Also Mac x Spitfire? I have never seen seen that before and considering that Mac gets shipping with everything but the kitchen sink I'm very surprised by this. I can't wait to read more of this story.

Peace Out.

ohh hoo, this is going to be good. :rainbowdetermined2:

Thanks guys! Love the support.

543539 I can respect that.

OMG Excellent, you put a really new style in characterization of mac since he like really quite, but maybe is because he is visiting some friends lol :pinkiehappy: and this ship OMG this is one of the pairings that i love cause GDBM ask blog and this is the first time i see a story with it, so great story grea characterization, great paing, cant wait for more:eeyup:

Oh god, Mac Attack, I love it! I also gotta give props for making a new SHIP; what should we call it? Big Fire? Spittintosh? MacFire?

A lot of spelling errors that need to be sorted out, but so far, I love this story! Keep it comin'!

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll get right on it. If you could actually give me a few examples, I'd love to fix them.

i like it, looking forward to the read

This is awesome, looking forward to next chapter! Please update soon! :eeyup:

Oh, I do like a good western. Aint enough of them on here.

Going good so far, if one ignores the few minor errors left ("Mac rose from his seat needed to stretch his legs.", "Sweet apple Acres"). Like someone else pointed out, I liked how Bic Mac's personality and his relation with Silverstar were developed on the story.

I think the intended Mac x Spitfire 'ship was made a bit too obvious, considering it's the first chapter. I would've started with some more subtle remarks at most on the first chapters, developing it as the story goes on, but maybe it's just me.

Thanks. I fixed those errors, and I do see your point. I was trying to make more of just a friendship, I'll work on that.

Sorry I took so long to get back to you. Okay, let's see...

He placed rope, bug ointment, his his special Stalliongrad-made survival knife -- two his's
Unfortunately, it also showed off her body a more than Spitfire’s liking. -- dont think the a should be there.
The creepy pony had switched for just eyeing her, to hitting on her. -- not for, from.
Mac opened the door slowly, seeing that the bandit occupying their corridor had turned her back-- no period.
There ain’t nowhere around her ta take ‘em.”-- here, i believe.
The bandits were tied up, locking in an unused safe-- locked.
Well, at least he know’s what he’s doing.-- italics.

Well, that's all I've got!

New chapter soon?

Damn! I can't believe I missed so many. Thank you soo much!

Chapter's coming along slowly as of now, unfortunately. I'll try to write it as soon as possible.

Been on my "Read Later" list for quite some time, and I finally had a chance to read it.
I am quite satisfied.
Seriously, I am interested. Big Mac, Spitfire, and Braeburn? Three of my favorite background/supporting ponies?
I'm in.
Cannot wait for the next chapter.

Huzzah! It's back with a zest!

Thanks! I don't really know why, but this chapter took way longer than it should have.

Well, if nothing else, the length of time eliminated all of the spelling errors. I didn't spot any.
I suspect we'll be learning more about Mac's previous exploits next chapter, that should be interesting.

Great to see this update.

An interesting choice to have the gunfighters use their tails. AJs shown us that Earth Pony tails are quite useful like that. I'm wondering if his cropped tail is an act of penance.

There's a lot of good emotion here, and I'm liking where it is going. Keep up the good work.

Thanks! Yea, working a gun is considerably more hard without fingers, and pony tails seems to be pretty flexible.

Not bad, glad I got around to reading this.

excellent chapter nice to find out why he doesn't drink

Good stuff, mate. Been waitin for this to continue.

... We've waited this much for that cliched cr-clop? I mean, don't get me wrong, anything happening in the present: Good Stuff! Anything related to the past: ... Good god, man.

Re-reading the chapter, yes, the flashback is very stereotypical and cliched. Sorry about that, and I swear I'll try to never repeat myself in that aspect. It seemed fine before I released it, but that's probably because I wrote it. Hopefully, though, you will enjoy where I go with it from there.

Awesome, this is updating.
And the thought plickens.

Yesssssssssssssss...

Love Big Mac :eeyup: Spitfire's pretty bad*** for a mare.

“I didn’t vote for ‘im!”

Bloody peasants!

HUZZAH! Spitintosh is best ship.

I do like how this ship is sailing. Turns out I like MacFire for a lot of the same reasons I like MacDash. Nice similarities and differences with the athletic & flying compared to athletic & grounded.

oodly i realy waned to see this ship

Oh god.... (starts sweating frantically) :twilightoops:


But in all seriousness, between balancing my writing, work, and trying to have some semblance of a personal life, I haven't had much inspiration to write that particular story. I want to make sure that if I put something out, it's at a quality that you deserve.

That being said, I'm not giving up on that story, or any other on-going tale I have right now. They will be released, I just haven't quite figured out what to do with it.

Thanks for reading, regardless! :pinkiehappy:
