The Mane 7 were staging an attack on King Sombra's castle.  They planted the bomb that Cassandra had made, but there was a problem.  "The detonator I made was faulty," said Twilight, "It'll still work, but somepony needs to stay behind and hold the wires together." Cassandra sighed.  She wanted to say "damn it Twilight you had one job!" but time was of the essence
"You mean-" started Rainbow Dash
"Yes" replied Cassandra, "that somepony won't be coming back.  Applejack, you like honesty don't you?"
"Yeah, but..."
"Then here's some for you, your element is the least important, you're staying."
"But Ah'm with child!" Applejack said
Rarity's jaw hit the floor, she got real emotional about girly stuff like that.  "Who's the father" she asked, barely able to contain herself."
"Braeburn" replied Applejack.
"You're staying" said the other six in unison.  They galloped off into the sunset and did that badass thing you see in the movies where they nonchalantly walk away from an explosion.
