Foal Star


Peace for Ukraine!

This story takes place during the events in the episode Leap of Faith

Granny Smith decides to drink the entire bottle of Flim and Flam's miracle tonic only to find out that it might have actually worked! The hands of time were turned back eighty years and she is now a much a younger mare. She then recruits Zecora to help her see if the tonic does as advertised but at the same time Granny also may have unintentionally discovered the true reason behind her youthful appearance. However, it will be up to her and Zecora to keep this secret from the Flim and Flam brothers from exploiting it.

Real interesting premise, but personally I find it annoying to write a character that constantly rhymes.

Im hooked and wondering what's next 😎

"Well, I already took a dip in some magical hotspring. What's the worst that could happen?"

Oh! She said it. That six word phrase equivalent to the five word phrase (What could possibly go wrong?).

I agree with Kit. This ought to be good. Let me get the popcorn.

"hey, mom… It's not time for bed…."

Aw...

Looking very interesting and just a guess but I am guessing a spark between Zecora and Granny Smith?

This is starting to get interesting. I like seeing Granny Smith being young and you know what they say, live longer live better. I'm looking forward to see what happens next. You earn six stars for doing a great job. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Diamond paused then looked around at the other foals; they were all now we're paying attention to her; she started to quiver, wanting to take the pie but at the same time would be forced to apologize to Granny Smith! She growled and turned her back, "like I would ever eat pie baked by crazy Granny Smith!"

Being rather stubborn. As usual, I suppose.

Granny snickered as she shrugged, "eh more for me then." She then took the pie and was going to chomp down when Diamond Tiara shouted, "fine! I'm sorry for calling you having silly ways and stuff; just give me the pie!"

There it is.:ajsmug:

Those two better keep this situation as a secret and I hope the test tube result from the hot spring will be a positive. Nice job on your new chapter this is starting to get pretty good. Another six stars for doing a good job. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

In my opinion, those two got off easy.

Imagine that, the Flim Flam brothers have been turned into school colts. :rainbowlaugh: And Granny Smith has challenge Applejack and Big Mac to a drinking contest. I hope those two will forgive her.

"Sure, I could use a dip, isn't that right, Flam?" Flam asked.

She took out a giant jug of liquor and slammed it on the table. "We're gonna get wasted!"

The thing is. The machine worked. Their split of the profits was the issue.

Applejack and Big Mac were both wholly baffled and concerned even more so. However, the orange-coated mare got angry and slammed her hooves on the ground, and snapped, "what did you do to the Flim and Flam brothers!?"

Wait a minute? Why is she upset about that?!

I mean she was just concerned about Flim and Flam's saftey was all

The creature raised its enormous wings as magic tendrils began to wrap around her; she could feel her body changing once more, she could feel her body shrinking, her muscles growing thicker once more. But unlike the first time, she turned younger and pudgier, and she could feel her face bloat out. She looked down into the pool, and her eyes went wide, seeing she was indeed a school foal! "You have got to be kidding me!" Granny cried out loud.

They did. You might have noticed. :ajsmug:

Yeah, yeah. But it's my style of humour; I'm a punny guy.

Just take a long look at the pond memories that could be made here ya never know we may just have a swimming time

this one feels forced ill admit:facehoof:

Flam slammed a hoof in the dirt and snapped, "our cutie marks has nothin' to do with scammin' ponies!"

Tsk, and I'm a Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

"Don't get all sappy on me,""

Poor choice of words. As I understand, that happens to the Crusaders a lot anyway.

Granny was somewhat suspicious of the two colts, who looked like they were scheming something. She knew deep down that there was no way to trust the two colts, but if she wanted to get them to take the cure from Zecora... She didn't have many options but to tag along.

Well, once -no, twice?- bitten...

Side note: "to go along with it" might be a better choice of words? Just offering?

Apple Bloom was confused and asked for more questions. But Granny Smith's eyes went comprehensive as everything around her sees to fade. The filly realized what they're doing using the magic water of the pool hidden in the Everfree Forest. Whether they were using the mixture Zecora crafted or the actual pool regardless, those two were risking their lives...and her's as well. Without a word, she ran towards the stage towards the crowd surrounding it. She could only hope she wasn't too late in saving those idiots.

I can imagine her also seeing red at this point.

I noticed some serious grammatical errors thanks for posting your comments.

That was the most heart touching thing Granny Smith has ever said and it's great to see her young again as a second chance. I wonder if she'll ever tell Applejack, Apple bloom, and Big Mac about this or probably she'll keep it as a secret. Good job on your new chapter, I'm really enjoying it. I'm giving your new chapter 10/10 for doing a good job.

"Until some meddling foals got in the way," Flam grumbled irritably.

If it weren't for them, they'd have gotten away with it, too! :derpytongue2:

And so the wise triumph in the end. Everypony seems to have benefitted... somewhat from the experience, too. Granny Smith gets another chance to make amends for past erring, Zecora's... personal life has... warmed up considerably, the Apple family will keep their matriarch for many years to come...

Put shortly, presuming that this is the end of the tale, I'm giving this story a perfect 10 on the :yay:itude scale. This is going in my All Time Faves folder and I'll be looking forward to what you produce in the future, as always.

But where's the dog, it's always meddling foals with a dog ...

Eh, he's probably with Snips and Snails. It's a long story.

your comments made me cry last night a little, I am so happy I'm able to write a story that has touched others and I have so many more I'm going to write in the future. Thank you so much for reading

This is the best story I've ever read. I'm happy to see Apples and Pears finally ended their feud. I hearby giving you a trophy for finishing your Guess Who's back. Congratulations.🏆

I hope you stick around I got a few more stories involving Big Mac coming up

Granny Smith twiddled her hooves with sweat coming down her brow. Despite the fact she has made peace with herself and was ready to finally end this feud. It has been many years since she last saw the stallion since that dreadful night when the two stumbled on their children's secret wedding. That fight has scared their families for two generations, the question loomed over their heads; will this meeting be enough to mend the feud?

More like scarred. Figuratively, of course.

Granny Smith's cheeks flushed pink, and waved a hoof. "Yes, but you're still looking good yourself."

Nice save. :ajsmug:

Apple Bloom started to burst into squeals of excitement as Granny's skips turned into a full-on sprint as she raced back to her home. The former old mare laid her head back, letting the wind rush through her mane and the power of her legs rushing along like a bolt of green lightning. The future was looking brighter, and she could only wonder what else it had in store?

I can also imagine a trail of flowers following behnd her.

Anyway, as this story comes to a close, I say long life to the Apples and Pears. As long as it's (ostensibly) been, Granny Smith has more to live for than she used to - and more energy to do so! Either way, this story gets a 10 on the :yay:itude metewr! I look forward to your next issue. This one has been exceptional, as always.

"Yes, but I need to know for sure? I also wanna know how long the effect lasts?" Granny explained Zecora took the bottle in her hoof and examined it before agreeing. "Well, I can run some tests or two, though it may take a few days, and in the meantime, maybe I should stay with you."

Is that an advanced rhyme?

Not bad. I like the idea, and the execution is pretty decent so far.
I did notice a few grammar errors and typos though.

It was as if something in the back of his mind was telling things were off, as the water had this glassy look to it, and on top of that, there were no trees around it, not for at least a mile or so.

his should be her, and a mile is absolutely huge for a clearing in a forest. To be fair, this is a magical forest with some hidden fountain of youth, so a mile out from a pond could be plausible if the forest has some space warping shenanigans going on.
Another thing I noticed is you didn't start a new paragraph when you switched speakers.
Other than that though, this is pretty good.
