It started out innocently enough. Rainbow Dash received a prank love letter, and decided to laugh about it with Applejack. Problem is, it wasn't a prank; and Applejack had been the one who sent it.

Now Applejack has disappeared, and Rainbow Dash is determined to find her and bring her back.

Because they're friends. Yeah. Friends.


Special thanks to TwilightUCrazy for the idea and invaluable suggestions for this story.

Smooth Dash. Real smooth.:facehoof:

Eewps. :derpytongue2:

Alright Rainbow... *Shotgun pump* Out back.

Smooth, Dash. Real smooth!:facehoof::facehoof::facehoof:

Anyway, excellent beginning. (Can I buck Dash clear to the Griffin Kingdoms now?:twilightangry2:) Can't wait to see what happens next!

And just an observation on my part here with this next bit. I think I've seen a comic on both DA and Tumblr about this very thing. Might this be inspired by that?:applejackconfused::applejackunsure:

Just curious, you understand.:ajsmug::twilightsmile:

That avatar... it needs a story.

No; at least, not intentionally. But AppleDash is a fun thing to write; I wouldn't be surprised if there were a couple stories that started like this (and feel free to link any you remember; I like comics!).

4407077 It will. Trust me.

4407077 Oh, okay. Like I said, I was just curious, anyway. It just started put like that comic I read, sooooo, I just assumed.:twilightsheepish:

And you know what they say about "assuming" stuff.:raritywink:

Yep, it is, and you're probably right.:raritywink:

And if you're talking about that comic, I'll see what I can do. Do you want the links to the Tumblr one or DA one? Or both?:applejackunsure:

I'm so emotional, I cried for AJ! Nice introduction, I need to see how she fixes this.

Normally I'm not a huge fan of Appledash, but I approve of this. I love the bit with Big Mac

Real nice story, cant wait to see were it goes. Oh, and that talk with big mac was funny as hell. :rainbowlaugh:

I know exactly the comic you mean. Or rather, the tumblr that never went anywhere. This does sound similar... but it also never went much further than this. Onwards to chapter 2!

(how did this escape my notice)

To the oranges! :ajbemused:

440914 Really? Cool.:ajsmug:

And it didn't? Hmmm, that's weird, it was a good Tumblr comic. I wonder what happened for it to not go anywhere. It was pretty good.:applejackconfused::applejackunsure:

Anyway, that last that I remember reading of it was where Fillies AJ and Dash had gotten into a fight after L'il Dash crashed and wound up destroying a flower (or something similar) that L'il AJ had planted and was taking care of/nurturing.:ajbemused::rainbowdetermined2:

Granted, it's been a bit snce I checked it, but it sounds like I need to find it again. Would you by any chance know the name of the Tumblr, and/or the artist/writer? I'm sure that I have that one comic of Dash mocking and then tearing up AJ's letter in my faves over at DA somewhere, but I really, really, really don't want to go trolling all through my favorites to find the thing.:ajsleepy:

(Yeah, I'm a lazy-lump. So sue me.:rainbowlaugh:)

And I think that Chapter 2 is here!:ajsmug:

4409166 :rainbowlaugh: Yup, I figure so.:ajsmug:

The tumblr itself (in the description) is NSFW. But yeah, the idea of the letter was similar enough. Ends there though. I'm eager to see where baha goes with this :D

4409269 Ah, okay. Thanks for the link, Tcherno. I appreciate it.:ajsmug:

And yeah, it is. That's why I was curious as to if it was the same one. Looks like "no", which is okay.:ajsmug:

And I am, too! I can't wait to see what happens in Chapter 3!:ajsmug::rainbowwild:


4409791 Me, neither!:ajsmug::rainbowwild:

This is going to be good.

I like this story....quite a lot.

4409145 The one where they're in the desert, isn't it?

4412347 nope, that's a different one entirely!

This is so exciting.:raritystarry: What will happen next.

:rainbowderp:
Not who I expected!

Great simplicity to this story, really loving it so far.
Keep up the good work.

Princess Luna?!:pinkiegasp:

Well, I certainly did not see that one comin'!:twilightoops:

Can't wait for the next chapter, and I hope Princess Luna stalls AJ long enough for Rainbow and the girls to catch up to her, so Dash can apologize, and make things up to her.:applejackunsure::ajbemused:

Here's hoping that works. *crosses hooves, wings and eyes for just that*:ajbemused:

I'll admit, even I'm excited for what's coming next. And I beta read the damn thing. :ajsmug:

Shit just got real son.

I keep clicking the like button, but it won't go any higher! :flutterrage:

I like this story. I can't wait to see the next chapter.:twilightsmile: I am kind of a story worm.(book worm)

Nice use of Luna. And wow, AJ was gonna run really far off this time.

It does have Luna. I will half-forgive you.

Now go write me moar!

Six people misclicked the 'dislike' button.

I just hope that AJ makes the right decision. I have a hunch that she will, but, given that she's my favorite pony, I still worry about her. Like, a bunch.:applejackunsure:

And you'd think that, by now, she'd know that you actually can't run away from your problems. When is the silly girl gonna learn that for keeps?!:facehoof:

Other chapters of other stories released today as well... So you ARE forgiven.
Also, I love this story.

I love this story!!!!!!!!!!:ajsmug::rainbowderp:

This is a very good story. So you are definitely:twilightsmile: forgiven.

At least Princess Luna is there for Applejack in this situation, she really needed somepony to clear her messy thoughts.

I love this story soo much. I can't wait to see the next chapter.:pinkiehappy:

Oh, AJ. Don't do anything that you're going to regret. Please.

wait what aj thinking of doing?
that's just fucking stupid!
and is luna trying to help or let her go through with it?

4431570 I think that she's thinking of drinking the water of the Lake of Tranquility to forget the love that she has for Dash. The only thing is, that could be a very two-edged sword, where that's concerned. She could even forget the platonic love that she has for her, and that would not bode well for their friendship.:twilightoops:

And yes, yes, it definitely is.:facehoof:

Hmmmm, I dunno. Methinks that Luna's sneaky enough to work it so that she doesn't go through with it.:rainbowdetermined2:

I hope.

Anyway, I can't with for the next chapter to find out! Hopefully, the girls...and especially one (very remorseful) Rainbow Dash...will arrive in time to stop AJ from making such a horrendous mistake.:twilightoops:

Even if Luna can't. (Won't?):applecry:

Well, as much as I like Appledash.. Hey, I wouldn't complain at a little Lunajack. Just without the magical roofies er, Lake of Tranquility. :applejackconfused:

“Yes!” Rainbow snapped. “That would definitely bother me! I lo-” She paused. “I really care about her,” she finished lamely. “And I maybe really want to see her again.”

You lo-?
You LOVE her?! :pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp:
This story just keeps getting better and better. :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

And what made the others think AJ would be in Canterlot? :applejackconfused:

I hope Luna isn't leading both parties on... :ajbemused: That kinda cheapens the story for me.


These later chapters have been improving from the earlier ones. Pacing issues seem to have straightened out a bit. Glad I stuck with it. Taking interesting turns.

Somebody needs to give AJ a hefty dose of common sense, Here you go AJ.

I have never considered LunaJack, but it intrigues me now…

4433393
They didn't; in chapter five Twilight suggested they go to talk to Luna because Manehattan was too large to search on their own. If Luna had seen Applejack, she should know something.
No, Luna is not. There is no tragedy tag. :twilightsmile:
Thank you! My prereader also said I jumped into the first chapters a little quick… I might go back and extend it. Someday. :ajsleepy:

I kinda figured she wouldn't go through with it.


It seems while you did improve on the pacing, you went a couple steps backwards with this one. I'm sure you'll get the hang of it. :ajsmug:
