A letter to the princess

Previous Chapter

"BIG MAAAAAAACCCCCC!" Applejack sobbed as she ran back to Sweet Apple Acres. "Big Mac ah need your help!" Applejack screamed, drawing the attention of the two remaining family members at the house, Big Mac and Granny Smith.

"AJ?" Big Mac asked, worried about his little sister.

"Ahm sorry Big Mac ahm so so sorry!" AJ screamed, burying her face in Big Macs mane.

"AJ what are ya sorry for?" Big Mac asked now very worried for the orange mare.

"The pony, and Applebloom, a tried ta save 'er a really did, but he just used his fancy magic stuff an' he hurt me an' the crusaders an-" Big Mac shoved a hoof in AJ's mouth to keep her from talking any more, he felt he had heard enough. His youngest sister was gone.

"Now come on you two, inta the kitchen. Ahm sure we'll find 'er." Granny Smith said as her eyes started to tear up.

"NO! NO GRANNY AH NEED TA HELP 'ER!"

"AJ NO!" Big Mac yelled. "Ya can't, ah don't want to lose another sister..." The two siblings stared at each other for what felt like an eternity.

"Big Mac..."

"Yeah AJ?"

"Ahm still gonna look for her." And with that she darted away leaving Big Mac with a hanging open jaw, staring as she ran into the distance.

"Twilight open the door! Please Twilight!" Silence. "Twilight open the door now!" Silence. "Please, ah really need yer help!" Suddenly the door burst open to reveal a beaming Twilight Sparkle.

"Let me clarify this. Your finally admitting to when you need help?"

"What the hay, is that why ya didn't open the door fer me?" Twilight nodded in response. "Twilight I ought to buck y'all to tartarus!"

"Applejack! I'm only trying to help! If you want to be like this towards me then go home! I'm sure Big Mac or Applebloom can help you because I wo-" Applejack sat on the floor crying at the mention of her sisters name and that one of her supposedly best friends wouldn't help.

"Applejack?"

"It's- it's Applebloom, Twi please I really need yer help..." Applejack said with a quiver in her voice.

"It's okay Applejack just tell me what happened to her and I'll see what I can do." Twilight said, wrapping her hooves around her crying friend.


"Guards! I want you to find him and bring him to me IMMEDIATELY!" Yelled a very enraged Princess Celestia

"Yes your majesty!" The guars said simultaneously, and left with a salute.

"Big sis!" Boomed a voice from the throne room.

"Coming LuLu!" Celestia said in a sing song voice.

"WE SHALT NOT STAND FOR THIS!" Luna boomed through the entire castle.

"I'm coming Luna!" Celestia said poking her head into the throne room.

"TIA! Tell Blueblood NOT to speak ill of Minecraft!" Luna yelled

"Auntie Celestia this is simply absurd!" Blueblood whined. Celestia face-hoofed and escorted Luna out of the room to speak to her.

"Luna this is no time to be acting foalish, we have a crisis on our hooves!" Celestia said, while motioning towards the door with a hoof.

"I know Tia but I couldn't let him say that!" Luna huffed. Suddenly in front of Celestia in a green puff of smoke, a scroll appeared.

"Is this from Twilight? No it can't be, it's far to soon for another friendship report..." She said, while opening the scroll with her magic and reading it silently.

Dear princess Celestia,

I can guess you are confused as to why I have written another letter so soon and I am just as shocked at having to write this as you are to read it. It turns out that a tragedy has befallen us as my friend Applejack, the element ot honesty, is going through grief as her sister was kidnapped. The only logical explanation for it could be that it was a unicorn as Applejack explains it as her sister being shrouded in a pale orange glow. I would very much appreciate it i-

Please princess just find ma sis! A really need yer help! Am beggin ya here!

"Luna! I'm going to ponyville! Cover for me up here!" Celestia said and took of.

"Wha- Tia? TIA!? TIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

"So Auntie Luna... Minecraft. Very silly game if you ask me." Blueblood said.

"....... TIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
