June 2016 Apple / Everfree Headcanon · 3:28am Jun 22nd, 2016
Sasquatch killed Apple Jack's parents and the mom got the worst of the mess. Granny Smith with her search party found their corpses near their broken wagon with a partially eaten AJ Dad in a tree. AJ Mom was found with a broken neck with knots in her mane too neat to be Witch's Braid.
Granny couldn't make heads or tails around the mess... that is until they were shipping pies. Tree trunks had fallen, broken by a big foot. Apple Jack can protect herself so she wasn't going to be Booger bait.
Big Mac doesn't believe AJ when they return. There are many monsters in the Everfree but Bigfoot? Nope!
If Mac wasn't going to be serious then Apple Jack would. Season 5 when Applebloom delivered pies alone, the chimera was the least of her worries. For what lies in the woods is a greater danger than what anypony would believe. Not just the forest yettis but the other night monsters that make the Everfree quake in their existence. Monsters dangerous to everything. Intelligent, strong, and elusive. Apple Jack knows it's not what you can see that kills you... it is what nopony sees.
Sasquatch, Dogmen, Hell Hounds, etc. They haunt Earth but live in Equus. These things are worse than what bumps in the night.
