Two days later as they're walking home from the market, Pear Butter and Bright Mac walk under a tree, which soon snaps and falls right on top of them and crushes them. Alas, no help comes, and within a few hours time, the two pass away. Finally, five hours later, a pony walks by and notices the two dead ponies under the tree and realizes they are Bright Mac and Pear Butter. The pony then goes to the Apple Farm and tells the sad news to Granny Smith and the older two foals. As soon as Applejack and Big Mac hear the news, they burst into tears as does Granny Smith. She then goes to the site of the incident and recovers their bodies then goes and buries them under the Apple Pear tree. 

A few days after the accident at the funeral, the town pays their regards for the loss of the Apple Parents. As they share their regards, Applejack can't help but cry. Her parents are gone and now it's up to her and Big Mac to raise an infant Apple Bloom. Explaining this to her when she's older, that's what really scares Applejack. How does she explain something like this to a child??? She has no idea whatsoever.
