Sweet apple acers was in dead silence. not a sound, you could't even hear the Apples breathing. the night was when it happend. The hole Family was sleeping in there beds. a Cold Wind made its way over to the barn looking for an opening. the Wind flew in an open window.
as it came inside the warm barn. it took a form, a form of a pony loved in the Family. the Apple father, his yellow body and red mane. shined in the dark, it had been a wile since he had been in this body form. but he was there for a reson, and not to visit his Family.
slowly he walked on the loud wooden floor. still he was a spirit so not much sound. he got to the stairs, but before he walked up somthing in the livingroom got his eye, on the couch a little puppy named vinona was looking at him. she only looked, not growling or wimpering. he smiled and walked over to her.
''how is the siblings taking care of you?'' he said patting her head. in answer she snuggel his hoof. ''hmm... good'' he said leaving the dog on the couch.
slowly he walked up the stairs, the green wooden wall was giving him good and bad memorys. he only wish that he could enjoy them again. he got to the top. to be see six doors. one would lead to a bathroom, another would lead to a guestroom. the rest was bedrooms. two went to his two daughter and one to his son. then the last his wifes mother, Granny smith. he never liked her, she did't like him either. but he loved his children, only to want them back.
but the only way to get his Family was to kill a part of it, taking their Place. the one he had in site was his mother-in-Law. but first he had to get his children to agree With him. hard, but not imposible. he walked in the dark hallway.
he looked at the first door to the left. Macintosh's room. he smiled.
he walked in makeing as little sound as possible, he looked over at his (now growen up) son. last time he saw him he was only a teen boy.
he got Close placing a hoof on his back slowly stroking it.
Mac was in deep sleep when something touch his back. his eyes shot open darting around in the room. nopony was there.
''Macintosh, I see you have grown...'' said a voice. he knew that voice, but it was impossible.
''P-Pa? wha...'' he said sceard.
''I am not here to harm. I am only here to help.''
''wha... b-but what are you?'' he looked around but nothing was there.
''I can come back, but all of you have to give something... and not an item'' he said showing himself.
''what... do you want'' Mac was shocked to see his father. Alive?
''can you agree With me. for whatever I say?'' he asked. Mac was sceard but he wanted his father back he did not know what he wanted but he wanted to get it. He nodded.
''Good, now og to bed, you will need Your stength tomorrow.'' Mac felt tierd as his eyes become lighter. he smiled falling asleep again.
''you may rest my son, you have done a great job protecting the Family.'' the father said walking out into the hallway.
''one Down two to again.'' he said closing Mac's door.

Applejack's door was closed. he walk inside. he took a look at the mare? in the bed. last time he saw her she was half size. he smiled, he knew how to get her.
slowly making his way to her bed he lay down behind her. petting her on the head. whispring into her ear
''Jacky, wake up. its me Pa.'' he whisperd. Applejack opend her eyes slowly. she yawned and looked around, only to see her father behind her. she yelp, so much she slide out of bed. head first.
''ow.'' was all she got out before she get back on her hoofs. she look on her bed. her father sitting there looking at her.
''P-Pa? is-is that you?'' she whisper, taking a hoof out to touch him. her hoof made contact with him. her hoof was away from his as fast as she touched him .
''yes, Jacky It is me.'' he said as he saw her tear up. ''Jacky dont cry, I am here to help you.'' he said hugging her.
''H-Help?'' she ask sobbing at the same time.
''yes. I see how much pain all of you have. And I am here to stop it.'' he said breaking the hug and looking into her eyes. ''I know you blame youself for me and Ma's death, but it was not your fault. how could it be?'' he look at her.
''I-I left you, I sould have done something.'' she cries into his chest.
''shhh... Jacky its okey, Im here now. and I wont leave you enymore.'' he whisper to her.

''rest well, My little Applejack.'' he said walking out of her room. closeing the door.
''*sigh...* well I got my children.'' now it will be the Death to take care of.
