//------------------------------// // Agent AppleBloom. // Story: Gummy's Secret Life // by WinterTwister //------------------------------// Eye Patch reclined in his chair just moments from giving Gummy his assignment but he still had a worried consciousness. 'Hes our best agent, he'll be fine...' Even attempting to reassure himself in his mind he couldn't shake the feeling. '.. Maybe I should call back-up even a great agent like Gummy can't handle every situation.' Eye Patch turned to his monitor and started typing in numbers, it was dead silent in his office, only the noise of the clopping of his hooves on the keyboard slightly echoed in the room. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "AppleBloom!" AppleJack was scowling at her little sister. "Ah that ah told ya' not harvest any of the western trees in the orchard!" AppleBloom was looking downward at her hooves, making a circle in the dirt with her front right hoof. "Ah'm sorry sis, ah was just caught up in work and forgot about what you told me earlier..." AppleJack sighed. "That's just fine ah appreciate hard work here but you also have to learn how to listen, ah cant have ya' working on the farm like that. Well it's no big deal i just have to organize today's harvest and start up tomorrows numbers." AppleJack trotted into the barn to get the delay dealt with. 'It's a good thing I don't plan to work here the rest of mah life.' AppleBloom thought to herself. AppleBloom's bow started shaking and she immediately tapped her hoof on the right tip of her big red bow. A mini screen popped out in front of AppleBloom from the bow and had Commander Eye Patch on the screen. "Agent AppleBloom." Eye Patch kept his calm composure. "Sir!" AppleBloom was dedicated to her real job. "There is a grave danger creeping up on Ponyville and i sent out best agent on the job." "Agent 700?" AppleBloom had only heard rumors about him. "Yes, even though hes our best im certain he could use your talents so im assigning you as his partner for this mission. Start heading towards Rendezvous point delta, we are counting on you and agent 700, Eye Patch. Out." AppleBloom thought of what agent 700 would be like. 'He's got to be tall, dark, and handsome and muscular. Ah've heard so much about him i hope the rumors are true' AppleBloom blushed at these thoughts but shook her head to rid herself of the blush. 'ah shouldn't be thinkin' like that, it's not fair to spike.' AppleBloom walked into the apple orchard. AppleBloom was searching all around slowly backing up into a tree, she kicked the tree and it opened up. AppleBloom entered the tree's secret door, she slid down a slide that opened up after she pressed a button that had ' delta' printed on it. After the ride she walked down a narrow corridor that led towards a ladder that she climbed and met the light of day. She dusted herself of any dirt that was on her mane. She appeared in a clearing just outside the orchard and was standing next to a dirt road when she saw the car coming her way. She stood up tall and adjusted her stance and closed her eyes as the car rolled up beside her and opened up. She opened her eyes expecting a stallion to be in the drivers seat but almost did a double-take as she saw it was someone she had never expected; it was Pinkie Pie's pet alligator Gummy. The car's voice roared with the engine. "Salutations agent 816." AppleBloom's surprised expression turned into a smile. "Hello Dawn Cruise its a pleasure to meet the agents most trusted member." AppleBloom hopped into the passenger seat and extended her hoof at Gummy. "Who knew such a close friend would be the agency's best!" Gummy just stared forward at the flashing buttons on Dawn Cruise completely ignoring AppleBloom. AppleBloom frowned and stared forward as well. "Don't worry agent AppleBloom, agent Gummy is used to working alone he will come around eventually." Dawn Cruised roared his engine and sped off. "We need to find the location of our target, Dr. BlastBurn, he is a scientist that worked in Ponyville and used his genius to solve problems with the pegasus clouds and earth pony crops. We have almost no information on Dr.BlastBurn because he worked in secret and despised social occasions, we only have an area in which he may be residing. Setting course for the outskirts of Ponyville. Destination underway, enjoy the ride agents." Dawn Cruise turned on the radio to a song to entertain the agents on the journey. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Doctor Blast Burn, we have been alerted about the agencies movement, we fear they have already discovered our operation." The pony that said this was hidden in the shadow. "Do not worry my dear, I planned that they would figure us out as soon as possible." A sinister smile showed through the darkness." I have already taken action towards this and im certain they sent their best agent; agent 700. He wont be able to stop us, especially since his days are numbered." Dr. Blast Burn turned towards another pony in the dark. "Prêt nos hommes."
