//------------------------------// // The apples something something // Story: Applejack and Skeleton Bloom's Wild Ride // by Protopony350 //------------------------------// CHAPTER 1 THE APPLES BURN AT MIDNIGHT! Applejack hung from the rafters upside down. "Jumpin Jackrabbits, how'd I get myself into THIS one?" She asked the skeleton of Apple Bloom. Apple Bloom did not respond. "Oh Come on Apple Bloom, you've been givin me the cold shoulder all day!" Said Applejack with anger in her voice. Apple Bloom continued to ignore her sister. "Well FINE!" She said and also a flashback started. The room got really wavy, and the evil bystanders all got dizzy. Applecronion fell flat on his face and died. And that's when the flashback took hold! --------------------------------------------------------------------- The fire ripped through the barn at the speed of fire, and Twilight Sparkle lifted the Element of Magic into the air in a desperate attempt to summon her sealed power, but it was no use! "It's no use! We need Applejack!" Said Twilight Sparkle. It was at that moment that the flashback began to ripple, and it fell into explosions. "Hey, that ain't a flashback! That's what's happening right now!" Applejack was sick of the incompetent flashtime entity. Apple Bloom had nothing to add to the conversation. "FLASHBACK!" Applejack yelled and the real flashback exploded into the room and some bad guys turned fire and after fire turned dust. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Applejack woke up in her bed that was NOT made of apples but don't tell anyone also she rubbed her eyes and got out of the bed. "Hey Apple Bloom, are you on fire again?" Asked Applejack in response to the smell of burning hopes and dreams. "Applejack! The apples! All of tha apples!" Screamed Apple Bloom who was also on fire, but just a little on fire. "Apple Bloom! Call in the troops!" Ordered Applejack. You'd think that "the troops" would be the Apple family, but naw, it's a full blown military force! "COMMANDER APPLEJACK, WE ARE IN RANGE!" Announced a bomber from above the farm. "LOCK ONTO THE SOURCE OF THE FIRE!" She ordered. The sky grew dark and the bomber exploded. A monstrous figure came into view. "WHO ARE YOU?" Demanded Applejack as she put on her Element of Harmony and charged at the villain, also she sent Apple Bloom to get her friends, also Apple Bloom is a little more on fire. Applejack stopped dead before the creature. "W.....who are you?" She asked with terror in her eyes. The Pony looked at her. Also the pony is just a burning skeleton with a red also burning robe on. "I am the end of apples. I am the end of Ponies. Applejack, you will burn." Applejack hesitated, but began galloping toward the beast. "HOW DARE YOU? THOSE APPLES ARE JUST LIKE CHILDREN TO ME!" Applejack grabbed her lasso and tossed it at the monster. The villain vanished into a burst of flames, and a creepy orange Pony with a high pitched distorted voice and a purple cloak appeared in its place and also had a mask on and stitches in its head basically this is one messed up Pony. "Bring them to ruin my dear Applecronion, and do not allow them to reach the great portal!" Said the voice of the burning Pony. "NYAAAAAAA, YOU'VE GOT IT MASTER!" Said Applecronion and it shot a beam of apples at Applejack, knocking her down. "Oh man I am SO confused!" Declared Applejack. "Hya hya hya, I am going to rip the Apples right outa ya!" Said Applecronion. Meanwhile the farm is still slowly burning and no one has seen Granny but oh well. "Please.....why are you doing this?" Asked Applejack to the evil Pony. "She wishes for it.........master wants REVENGE!" And Applecronion prepared to drop a 2 ton apple right onto Applejack, but OH YEAH the other Ponies arrived just in time! "Applejack, why don't you run?" Asked Twilight. "Oh, yeah!" And Applejack ran out of the way. The Ponies all stood together and cool music was playing and they started to glow. Apple Bloom watched in awe and also was just riddled with fire. "WITH OUR POWERS COMBINED, WE WILL COMBINE OUR POWERS!" And they shot at Applecronion with the Elements. "NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" Cried Applecronion, BUT OH NO NOTHING HAPPENED! "OH NO NOTHING HAPPENED!" Said a shocked Rainbow Dash. "What? Ohohoho, what a nice little twist! NYAAAAAAA!" And Applecronion vanished in a puff of Apples. "Applejack, what the DASH is going on?" Asked Fluttershy. "I have no idea! I woke up and the farm was on fire, and I'm SURE it was that evil Pony and had nothing to do with me leaving the 5 ovens on!" Said Applejack sincerely. Apple Bloom would have questioned her on that one, but was missing most of her flesh. "Guys, those monsters hurt my apples! We NEED to find them!" Demanded Applejack as she stood against the backdrop of her burning farm. "Who could have the power to light a TREE on fire?" Asked Rarity with fear in her voice and also her really neat hat blew off and into the fire and she fainted. "OH NO!" Yelled Applejack as she caught Rarity with much shipping. The Apple Silo exploded, and Applejack looked over the destruction and began to weep. "EVERYTHING I LOVE IS BURNING IN THAT FIELD!" She cried. Apple Bloom was not amused, and also mostly bones. Applejack turned to her friends and also looked angry. "Alright gang, lets go find us an evil monster!" Said Applejack! "I'll stay here and investigate!" Said Twilight Sparkle, the most powerful and essential Pony in a monster fight. "Good idea!" Said Applejack. "Me and Flutters'll fly ahead and look for more burning homes and families!" Said Rainbow Dash as the shipping intensified. "And that leaves me and you Rarity." Applejack said with a wink, but Rarity was gone! "Hehehehehe I will take EVERYTHING you care for!" Said the voice of the evil burning Pony. "NO! YOU MONSTER, NOW EVERYTHING I LOVE IS GONE!" Said Applejack while stepping over a near dead but still breathing Apple Bloom. "COME ON APPLE BLOOM, WE'RE GOING TO KICK THAT MONSTERS HEAD OFF!" And Applejack tossed Apple Bloom onto her new motorcycle. ------------------------------------------------------------- Applejack continued to hang from the rafters. "Oh man, that was some flashback, and I bet we're in for even MORE flashbacks. STAY TUNED!" One of Skeleton Bloom's legs fell off.
