It's time for another solo adventure of Apple Bloom. This time, she is in a town where she'll get her game face on.
June 26-Let the Fun Begin
A red truck is seen going down the road. Soon, it enters an interesting looking town. This town has various houses, a lake for admiring, and different stores. Soon, the red truck stops in front of a large house. Out steps Applejack. She walks up to the front door, then knocks on it. A blond haired woman wearing a red shirt and blue jeans answers.
"Howdy, Mrs. Felmander." Applejack greeted.
"Hello, Applejack." The woman replied. "You're here early."
"I figured to get this over with."
Applejack returns to the truck. She soon got very angry. After opening the door, she brutally grabs something from the truck. It was her sister, Apple Bloom. Soon, she drags her to the house.
"Get in there!" Applejack said angrily. "No plans for you this summer!"
As Apple Bloom recovers, the woman looks at her with concern. Soon, Applejack comes back with a blue tote, and pushes it into Apple Bloom.
"Please." Mrs. Felmander said. "Don't be so brutal."
"She deserves it!" Applejack scowled. "I'm sure you'll keep an eye on her."
She then walks over to Apple Bloom. "I'll be checking up on you once in a while." She then got angrier and angrier as her face becomes beet red. "If you cause any trouble here like you have in Canterlot," she then yelled loudly, "YOU'LL NEVER SEE YOUR ACCOMPLISES EVER AGAIN!!!!'
This got Apple Bloom so frightened. She imagined smoke coming out of Applejack as her eyes become bloodshot. The angry farm girl left the house, and slammed the door hard, showing Apple Bloom that her guardians are equally mad. Apple Bloom started to cry as the blond haired woman tries to comfort her.
"I have a feeling there's more to this than your sister's letting on." Mrs. Felmander said.
"Doesn't matter." Apple Bloom sobbed. "I'll never be trusted again."
"Please, don't cry." She gives the frightened girl a comforting hug. "Let's get you settled, then you can tell me what's going on."
After being shown to her room, Apple Bloom laid down on her bed, still upset. Mrs. Felmander was soon called by a male voice. "Amy, was that Applejack earlier?"
"It is, Kevin." Mrs. Felmander answered. "She dropped off her sister. But, roughly."
"I wondered why she was exploding with anger. Where's Apple Bloom now?"
"In the guest room I prepared."
As Apple Bloom took off her boots so's not to mess up the bed, a red haired man wearing a lavender buttoned short and blue jeans walked in.
"Hi, Apple Bloom." The man greeted calmly.
"Howdy, sir." Apple Bloom replied sadly.
"You look like somebody put you through a Fight Club event, without the physical part."
The poor girl was still upset. But, she soon calmed down enough to explain her situation to her hosts.
"But, dearie." Amy said with concern. "The Anon-a-Miss disaster was over a year ago."
"Well, somehow my sister wants to keep thinking of it."
"So, what happened?" Kevin asked.
Flashback
The school year ended for us at Canterlot High School. Everybody left for their summer plans. I have done so good in school. I got a good report card for the year. As soon as I entered Sweet Apple Acres, my sister grabbed my report card and started to get angry at me for no reason.
"I don't know what you've been REALLY up to." Applejack said cruelly. "But, I can guess. You've been listening for anything to revive Anon-a-Miss and hurt other people."
"But, that was last year." Apple Bloom explained.
"Quiet!" She slapped her sister hard. "This will be one summer you and your partners in crime will suffer through. Pack your bags, you brat. I'm having you banished for the summer to Jackbox Village!!"
Apple Bloom's heart sank. Her sister won't let her spend the summer with her friends or anybody else in Canterlot.
End of Flashback
"This has got to be one of the most relaxing villages I've ever seen." Apple Bloom said. She then started tearing up. "Too bad I won't do any relaxing."
Amy tried to calm her down. "Don't be so upset, my dear. Do you wonder why this town is called Jackbox Village?"
The farm kid shook her head to say 'No'. Kevin stepped in to answer the question. "Just like magic from Equestria seeped into the city of Canterlot, energy from another dimension is in our town. This energy kicks in once in a while to lead people to various Jackbox worlds."
This gave Apple Bloom a thought. "When you say 'Jackbox', do y'all mean that game company that put out those party packs?"
"That's right. The company that introduced the world to 'You Don't Know Jack’ and it's amazing sequels. All of those locations of Jackbox can be found here. From the Guesspionage Lab and the MSM haunted house to T Shirt Island and the Hypnotorious Stage."
"That's MSM as in Monster Seeking Monster. Right?"
"You catch on fast."
Later that night, Apple Bloom changed into a sky blue nightshirt, and looked out the window. She never guessed that a small town like this can house fifty game worlds. Back in Canterlot, the seven Rainbooms were at Sweet Apple Acres for a slumber party.
"Now that Apple Bloom is staying at Jackbox Village," Applejack said, "we can enjoy a peaceful summer."
"I don't get it." Rainbow Dash said. "That Anon-a-Miss business is old news. Why bring it up again?"
"Well, I was told by Miss Harshwhinney about what Anon-a-Miss did in the past. She then told me that it can happen again."
"I think she wanted the Cutie Mark Crusaders not to be together anymore." Rarity figured. "She knows that they do well together."
"She probably believes the old saying," Twilight said, "United we Stand, Divided we Fall."
"Miss Harshwhinny made a point however." Applejack interrupted. "Separate those three, and everybody will be safe."
This got everyone upset, especially Sunset Shimmer. She was willing to forgive the trio. And, so did the other girls.
"Harshwhinny is always convincing when it comes to thinking of only the bad past." Sunset said to herself. "Applejack will one day learn why that place she sent her sister is called Jackbox Village."
