Timberjack and Flutterbat

by Dark Nightshade


Meet Timberjack

"And don't come back, ya varmits!" Applejack yelled as she chased some timber wolfs of off Sweat Apple Acers.

Strange, Ah don't think their usually that easy to chase off, thought Applejack. They might be planning something. Oh well. Untill then, Ah'm going to have to expect it. Ah need to ask Fluttershy a out this.


Applejack finally got to Fluttershy's cottage. She walked up to the door, and was about to nock, when Fluttershy opened the door.

"Oh, hi Applejack, I wasn't expecting to see you here," she said, sounding kind of nervous.

"Surprise! Anyway, Ah might need some help with some timber wolfs that keep trying to steal some of the apples from the orchard," said Applejack.

"Oh, really?" asked Fluttershy, suddenly sounding really interested.

"Yeah. They seem to be retreating more then they usually would," Applejack said.

"Huh. And it's just you chasing them?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yeah," replied Applejack.

"Huh. Yeah, either something is wrong with them, or their planning something," Fluttershy said.

"That's what Ah thought," said Applejack.


Later, when it was starting to get dark, Applejack said "Ok, Ah don't think we're going to find em tonight. Sorry Ah dragged you all the way out here."

"No, it's ok," Fluttershy said. "I've been meaning to find some timber wolves anyway."

"Why?" Applejack asked.

"Remember when I turned into Flutterbat?"

"How can I not? Again, Ah'm mighty sorry fer making you do that."

"I've been turning into that every full moon."

"Seriously?! Why have you not told us this?" yelled Applljack.

"Because I don't want you girls to worry. Also, my Flutterbat transformation magic has started affecting some of my animals," Fluttershy whimpered.

"Really? Has it affected any of us?" Applejack asked.

"I'm not entirely sure," Fluttershy said.

"Ok, that could be bad," Applejack said. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a timber wolf tackled Applejack.

"Ahhhhh!" yelled Applejack.

"Oh my!" Fluttershy yelped. She started punching it, and her eyes started glowing.

"Let! Her! GO!" she yelled as she was incased in a glowing white light. This white light soon disappeared, and reviled Flutterbat. The timber wolf, sensing how powerful she was, turned and ran, with its tail in between its legs.

"OhmygoshIamsosorry!" Flutterbat yelped.

"Wait, Fluttershy, are you still there?" Applejack said, quite surprised.

"Yes. Most of the time, I am in control," Flutterbat said.

"Most of the time?" Applejack asked uneasy.

"Yes. Anyway, are you ok?"

"Yes, Ah'm fine."

"Are you sure? Usually when I transform, something happens to the animals looking at me."

"Really? Well, now that you mention it, Ah do feel kind of weird. Ah suddenly want to eat a ton of meat."

"Interesting. I hope I didn't bond you with the timber wolf," Fluttershy said as Applejack started to glow. There was a flash of green light, and when it was gone, Applejack was there in body, but maybe not in spirit. Applejack was now had some vines covering her body, her eyes were glowing green, she had sharp, nasty looking claws, sharp, nasty looking teeth, her breath was starting to smell, and her cutie Mark were still apples, but they looked dark green.

"Oh my gosh. Applejack? Are you in there?" Flutterbat asked nervously. "I suppose I should actually call you something else. How about Timberjack?" Timberjack snarled, and pounced at Flutterbat.

"Ahhhhh!" she screamed. After about a minute and a half, Timberjack managed to tackle her.

"Applejack! Please, wake up! I know you're in there, and K know it's hard, but please, wake up!" Flutterbat yelled. Timberjack froze.

"What am I doing?" she asked.

"I think you were just trying to eat my face off. Applejack? Are you back?"

"Where did I go? And what do you mean, trying to eat your face off?"

"You mean you don't remember?" Flutterbat asked.

"Remember what?" Timberjack asked.

"You should pay more attention to what your legs look like," Flutterbat said. Timberjack focused on her legs and screamed.

"How did these vines get here? Is my skin color darker? Why's the apples on my cutie mark green?" Timberjack asked, starting to freak out.

"Calm down. You must have bonded with the timber wolf when I transformed. I wonder why?" Flutterbat asked herself.

"Ah don't normally care about what my hair looks like, but sheesh, it is really messed up! Also, have you already come up with a new name for this form?" Timberjack asked.

"Yes, your new form should be called Timberjack," Flutterbat said.

"Timberjack. I like it. Wait, how are we going to break this to the others?" Timberjack asked, the worry clear on her voice.

"Maybe we don't. What they don't know can't hurt them. Probably," Flutterbat said.

"Fluttershy, or Flutterbat, I guess, I hope you're right," Timberjack said nervously. Unfortunately, Pinkie was secretly watching them, and had seen the whole thing.

So, she can merge pony's with things, huh? Maybe she can merge me with my party cannons. Or a cherry-changa. And if she can only merge pony's with living creatures, maybe she can merge me with a snake, or griffin. Hmmm, I could probably use this knowledge to my advantage, but how? Eh, I'll figure that out later. Time to invite more people to a party! Pinkie thought as she snuck away.
