"she wasn't that hurt in the fire, her left eye was a little burned and some parts of her will have scars for a while or they will last out her life. Her eye will heal in at least three months or so." Applejack woke to the sound of Twilight's voice. She tried to open her eyes to meet Twilight and whoever she was talking to, as she opened them she was meet with a bright white light it made her close her eyes again, slowly she got used to the bright light. Her left eye was covered with bandages, she looked around with only a right eye.
"okay, just make sure she is healing well." a male voice was heard from Applejack's right. She turned her head toward the voice, there on the chairs next to her bed sat Twilight and doctor hooves.
"what happened?" Applejack asked, getting their attention.
"Oh Applejack, you're awake." Twilight said, jumping up and running toward her happily. "Applejack, dear god your unharmed." she hugged Applejack tight. "well, not that much." She let go of Applejack from her death grip and let her lay back in the bed. Applejack watched Twilight and Doctor Hooves look over some papers at the end of her bed.
"Applejack, we have some bad news and some good news about the injures you got from the fire. Do you want to hear them now or do you want to rest up before we take the heath check?" Hooves asked, placing the paperclip board back to it's place.
"ah can take them now" she said tiredly.
"well, first thing first. your left eye, if you haven't noticed. Your left eye got a little hurt, surprisingly you won't be blind forever. It will heal during at least three months. Some other parts of your body got burned, like your right arm. Sadly it already had a scar and it didn't help that your arm got burned. Since your unhealed knife scar wasn't rightly healed, you will have a life scar." He said sadly looking at Applejack's arm.
"it's better than losing it." Applejack said looking down at her arm, small stripes of blood all over the bandage.
"that's the spirit!" He said smiling.
Two months later
It was only one more month until she could take the bandages off. But today was a special day for Applejack, she had been dying to this day to come. Today, her family would visit her. She had been jumpy all week when she first found out, non stop she had told Twilight about her family and how she loved it.
"ah remember when one time Apple Bloom came into my room as a toddler and woke me up all because she had gotten an hiccup." Applejack laughed as she and Twilight ate their lunch. Two daisy sandwiches and apple juice on the side.
"that sound wonderful Applejack. I had a big brother who loved to bug me when I was studying. he would lift my books with his magic so I couldn't reach them." she joked. "that's how family is" she said as they both broke out laughing.
After lunch Twilight brought Applejack to a speaking room, the only place visitors was allowed to come. There in the waiting room, there sat Applejack's family waiting Big Mac sitting in the left chair and the longest away, he sat there with his face buried in his hands. Granny sat in the middle reading a knitting magazine. While Apple Bloom sat still with her head resting in her hands and waving her legs back and forth. Applejack's mouth dropped open and her eyes watered up.
Apple Bloom was the first to turn her head, she jumped up from her seat "Applejack!" she shouted happily, only to be hushed by one of the nurses. "sorry" she whispered, Big Mac and Granny looked up and smiled as they saw Applejack standing there.
Seconds later Applejack found herself trapped in their warm loving family hug.
they realised Applejack from their hug. Granny placed her hand on Applejack's cheek and gently looked into her granddaughters eyes. "we have missed ya hun" Granny said with her warm smile.
"ah missed ya too!" she cried as her eyes finally gave away with the tears.
"Applejack how ya been?" Big Mac asked hitting Applejack on the back with her big hands, making Applejack jump forward by the impact.
"Nice seeing ya too Mac, but ah don't think ah need to break my back today..." she said with a awkward smiled.
"sorry, ah just... just..." he couldn't even finish as he broke out in tears and hugged his sister like it was the last thing he did.
"Applejack, ah got my cutie mark, finally!" Apple Bloom said as Big Mac let go off Applejack.
"that's nice, what is it?" She asked leaning down to Apple Bloom's face.
"It turned put that ah a really good to build and fix things." Apple Bloom said happily, hugging Applejack.
"Ah knew ya could do it"
"Excuse me, but I am Twilight Sparkle, Applejack's doctor. It's nice to meet you, she tell me so much about you." Twilight said coming into the picture. Just seconds later she was captured in the warm hug from the entire family. "oomph"
"Let me come forth" They looked behind them to see who was talking. Granny had spoken. Everyone stepped back as Granny walked close to the alicorn mare. She took Twilight over the shoulder and took her some steps away. "Twilight was it?" Twilight nodded. "ya hear now, there is another reason we sent Applejack here. The other doctors don't know because we didn't tell, we or ah wanted only ya to know. Applejack is unstable, we found something out back home. The police came to us not too long ago and talked to us about Applejack."
While Granny and Twilight spoke, the rest of the family. Applejack, Big Mac and Apple Bloom spoke about what was happening outside the hospital and what was happening on the farm.
"we had to go against you and hire some work hooves on the farm, sorry sis" Mac said slightly blushing with embarrassment.
"ah don't blame ya, do whatever ya need to save and keep the farm." Applejack said with soft eyes and voice.
"we had to fight off someone named Flim Flam brothers. They wanted the farm, but we managed to scare them off." Apple Bloom said smiling to Applejack, who smiled back.
"good" Applejack said hugging her sister.
"it's the police, open the door or we have to break it down." a male police officer, he was a dark blue unicorn with short brown mane. He yelled through the wooden door to a small hut in the forest. A minute later they finally broke down the wooden door. Looking around they saw the wooden hut was a mess, furniture was laying around on the floor. The police staff walked inside and looked around, on one of the selves one of the police officer found a cabin full with medicine and drugs.
"sir, look at this" He said as he showed his boss the cabin. The officer put on a plastic glove and took one out.
"drugs" He said.
Not long after they heard a soft sob coming from one out the three rooms there. "h-help...." they heard, all of them looked up from what they were doing and listened.
"anyone here?" The officer called out. All he was answered with was a soft sob and a little hiccup. "find out who this is now!" he ordered.
The police quickly went to action and broke down the doors. The first door, closest to the exit was empty the only thing inside was a rope and a bucked. The next door held a bloody knife, a gag ball and a basket with the same drug as they found in the cabin.
As they finally got through the final door, the door had been locked with chains, they found a crying girl.
She gasped as she saw them, she tried to stand up to run. But fell as she remembered her leg was still chained to the wall. The police looked the girl over. She had a orange golden coat, with a sun gold mane. Her body was covered in blood and dirt. She looked at them with wide emerald eyes, in her eyes they saw fear. The girl panicked and backed herself up against the wall.
"we're not going to hurt you, my name is Quart" The Quart said. He was a white unicorn with brown mane. He carefully walked closer to her. "do you have name?" He asked.
The girl gulped "A-Applejack..." she said shaking violently.
"we need to get you to a hospi...."he trailed off as he looked behind her, two dead bodies. One red Pegasus with short green mane and tail and the cutie mark of a football. The other was a brown unicorn with yellow and orange mane and the cutie mark of a star. Both bodies was covered in blood and the features of them both was ruined. The unicorn's horn was ripped from his head and The pegaus wings was broken with only a little of the base again, the feathers was spread out all the dirt floor.
"what happened here?" the dark blue officers asked coming into the room.
"there dead... Daggara... err I mean sir" Quart said, before he caught himself. He turned back to Applejack "Applejack, do you know what happened?"
As she opened her mouth to speak, Quart stopped her as he saw in her eyes that it pained speaking, her mouth was bleeding.
"you don't need to tell now, we'll get you to the hospital" Quart said, he used his magic to rip off the chain on Applejack's leg.
"we'll just come back here" Daggara said as Quart lifted Applejack up in his arms.
"yeah, wait your name was Applejack! wasn't she the girl that was kidnapped a week ago or so?" Quart asked, as he looked down at Applejack he saw she was crying, this was defiantly her. They took Applejack over to the police car, Quart and Applejack was rushed to the hospital, while Daggara and his staff stayed to look at some things.
Granny finished the story Quart had told her not long ago.
"do you believe that Applejack killed them?" Twilight asked looking back at Applejack and her brother hugging.
"ah don't know, nopony but Applejack knows." Granny finished.
"all visitors sadly have to leave now, come back another day" A female voice was heard over the speakers.
"well, if ya could do me a favour and see if she want to tell." Granny asked Twilight, before Twilight could answer Granny had walked back to Applejack to say her goodbye for now.
"we'll me miss ya sis" Apple Bloom said hugging her sister tight.
"eeyup" Big Mac said smiling and patting Applejack on the head like they did as children.
"well... it isn't like ya go into her room and cry for a few hours" Granny joked poking Big Mac in the side. Big Mac who blushed and hugged his sister thight.
"we hate to see ya like this sis, please get well soon." He cried into her shoulder, Applejack smiled and patted him on the back.
"ah will Mac, ah will" She said, before hugging Granny for now. "ah will miss ya Granny"
"me too, me too" she said.
After their sad goodbye Granny, Big Mac and Apple Bloom had to leave. They waved back to her as they walked over to their car and left.
