The sun hung motionlessly over Sweet Apple Acres.

Only a few rays of sunlight shone through the ashes, and onto the cold, hard ground.

It was apple-bucking season, and soon the apples would be ready to fall off of the trees.

That is, if there were trees still left, and seasons still came.

There was a pattering of tiny animal feet as all of the woodland creatures came out of their burrows and nests for the morning.

But there was no morning, there were no burrows, and there were no animals.

Cupcakes were baking in the oven at Sugarcube corner, ready to be served to the waiting ponies.

But there were no cupcakes.

Or ovens.

There was no Sugarcube corner.

And most importantly, no ponies.

Except one.

I can't remember
What happened in September
When everything is gone
When it's dark and I'm alone
