Chapters Luna raised the moon as Apple Bloom showed up in the horizon.
"There she is." Twilight said, "But let's wait. She might want to be alone for a few minutes."
Apple Jewel stayed back behind the trees beside Twilight. Apple Bloom slowly trotted up to Applejack's grave. grabbing the "old" apple, putting the newly picked apple. She sat down and started to cry.
"Ah'm sorry Applejack; Ah just can't stand it that you'r gone. Ah' just wish you could'v seen Apple Jewel. She is with Twilight. She is doing well from what ah've been told. I really miss my baby girl. Ah just wish that ah could see her again." Apple Bloom cried.
"Go on now, she needs you." Twilight whispered into Apple Jewels ear.
She got up and ran towards Apple Bloom.
"MAMA!" Apple Jewel called.
"APPLE JEWEL! OH!" Apple Bloom yelled.
They both ran into a hug.
"Oh my Celestia! Ah was just talkin' 'bout ya." Apple Bloom said.
"I heard! Twilight brought me here." Apple Jewel said.
"Ah' don't care right now! All that matters is that I can hold you again!"
Apple Bloom squeezed her so tight, Apple Jewel could barely breathe.
"Hey Apple Bloom." Twilight said.
"Hey Twilight! What are ya doin' here?" Apple Bloom asked.
"I'm here because Apple Jewel wanted to know what had happened to Applejack, and I showed her the past. When we came here she wanted to see you, so yeah."
"Thank you for letting her come. Ah have to take her home and show her somethin. Can Ah' Twilight?"
"Sure, can I come too?"
"Yeah mom, can she?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Okay." Apple Bloom answered.
Apple Bloom, Apple Jewel and Twilight headed towards the Apple Farm. Breaburn, Babs, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were inside the barn. The three of them trotted into the room. Scootaloo looked over her shoulder and saw the three of them.
"Twilight!" Scootaloo called.
"Hey girls, My Little Ponies." Twilight said.
Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo ran up to Twilight and gave her a big hug.
"What are you doing?" Sweetie Belle asked, her voice still sweet.
"I'm here with Apple Jewel. Apple Bloom said she wanted to show Apple Jewel something." Twilight answered.
Apple Bloom came down from the hallway with a small blue blanket in her hooves. She came up to Apple Jewel and sat down.
"You remember when you were young and you wanted a little sibling?" Apple Bloom asked.
"Yeah I remember." Apple Jewel answered.
Twilight already knew what it was.
"Go ahead." Twilight nudged Apple Jewel.
She got up and went to the end of the couch where Apple Bloom was. Seeing the small green colt in her hooves.
"Meet your little brother. Green Apple." Apple Bloom said smiling.
She handed Apple Jewel the little colt; she held him and gently hugged him. The little colt took his tiny green hooves and hugged Apple Jewel back. She smiled, tears started to fill in her eyes. Twilight stepped outside, she kind of started remembering her older brother, Shinning Armor.
Love ya Twily
Love you too BBBFF
Apple Bloom came outside and sat down next to Twilight.
"You must be thinking about your brother." Apple Bloom said.
"How do you know?" Twilight asked.
" Ah' just thought that you were. Right now I'm thinking about Applejack, how she must of felt when Ah' was born. But, Ah' know that is she continues working with ya. He won't even know who she is. But I want her to dream."
In Canterlot, the other 5 ponies have already left the Equestrian world. Twilight was all alone; except for the day she found Apple Jewel. She was now her personal protege for the school for gifted unicorns. Celestia was still the main pony for the school; Twilight was there to teach and be of help to all the young fillies and colts.
"Are you ready Apple Jewel?" Twilight asked.
"What is it Princess Twilight?" Apple Jewel asked.
" I want to teach you about the basics of magic."
"Why? I already know all that."
"Okay, let me teach you the first lesson in magic."
"But I know that too."
" Really; show me a simple levitation spell."
Apple Jewel tried to levitate the book in front of her, but nothing happened.
"So you know these?" Twilight sarcastically asked.
" Yeah I do. I might just need a little help." Apple Jewel said.
" You were just like me when I was young."
" But, you must of done better, you're a princess."
"I wasn't a princess all my life."
"What do you mean?"
"Come with me; there is something that you need to see."
Twilight's horn glew as they traveled through time. Apple Jewel and Twilight landed in the same place they met. They sat in the far corner of the room. They both saw a small lavender filly, working on her exam.
"Who is that?" Apple Jewel asked.
"That young filly over there, is me. I was nervous. That little egg was my dragon assistant Spike." Twilight answered.
Then, there was a loud boom. Apple Jewel jumped up and grabbed Princess Twilight. But she looked back and saw the sonic rainboom.
Rainbow Dash Princess Twilight thought to herself.
" Who did that?" Apple Jewel asked.
Princess Twilight didn't answer. Apple Jewel looked back.
"Twilight Sparkle." Princess Celestia said.
"Oh I'm so sorry." Twilight said.
"You have a very special gift! I don't think I've ever come across a unicorn with your raw abilities. But you need to learn to tame these abilities through a focused study. Twilight Sparkle, how would you like to become my own personal protege at the school? Well?"
"YES!"
"Oh one other thing Twilight."
"MORE? AH! My cutie mark! YES, YES, YES, YES, YES!"
Apple Jewel looked at Princess Twilight, she was in tears.
"Princess are you okay?" Apple Jewel asked.
But she didn't hear Apple Jewel.
Can you do that?! Can you explode Twice?!
Yee Haw! Now that's more like it!
Come on ponies I wanna see you smile!
Oh I am so frustrated I could just kick something!
See what'd I tell ya? 10 secons flat!
But I thought you wanted whining!
" Princess? Are you okay?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Yeah I'm alright." Twilight answered.
What?! Ya wanna go to the zoo?! Well who's stoppin ya?!
"There is another place you need to see." Twilight said.
They traveled to the Everfree forest. Close to the castle where the elder Princess's were. Inside there were 6 ponies and Nightmare Moon.
" NIGHTMARE MOON!" Apple Jewel yelled.
"It's okay, that inside of that monster, is Princess Luna." Twilight said.
"Really?"
"Just watch."
Apple Jewel looked over at Nightmare Moon.
"You may have destroyed the stones! But the elements are withheld inside of us!" Twilight said.
"You are still a unicorn. And you have friends? How come I've never met them?" Apple Jewel asked Princess Twilight.
"Don't you remember the orange mare?" Princess Twilight asked.
Apple Jewel looked at the orange mare.
"Is that my aunt Applejack?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Why yes. That's Applejack." Princess Twilight responded.
"Where is she now? My mom never told me."
Twilight casted a spell, it lead her to the grave-site where all her friends were. Twilight took Apple Jewel to Applejack's grave.
"What happened?" Apple Jewel asked.
"I can't really answer that. When I found out that she had died, I only got a letter d=sating it. That's all I can say." Twilight answered.
Tears started rolling down the young filly's face. Then Twilight started to cry as well.
"What was she like? My Aunt?" Apple Jewel asked.
"She was amazing, better than any other pony I ever knew. She was the element of honesty. She tended to the Apple farm like your mom. She was younger at the time I met Applejack. Mhm; they were my best friends. Both your mom and Applejack had a lot of issues. Your mom was all about getting her cutie mark, and Applejack was very stubborn. But overtime, they both learned so much. But I couldn't share my joy with her when I met you. I thought Applejack would be so proud of you." Twilight answered.
"Really?"
" Ah yes. But I don't think you were even born when she died."
"She died days before I was born. I'm looking at this stone and the day she died was 3 days before my birthday."
That's why Apple Bloom left early. She was carrying Apple Jewel.
"Interesting. I never thought that you were born days after her death." Twilight said.
"I didn't know either. Thank you for taking me here. I just wish that I could have seen her before she died." Apple Jewel said sadly.
"You and me both Apple Jewel. You and me both."
Apple Jewel looked down at the grave. She found a freshly picked apple on the grass.
"How does this apple stay fresh?" Apple Jewel asked.
"Your mom comes here often now with a new apple every night." Twilight answered.
"When will she be coming?"
"Soon."
"Can we stay here. I would love to see her again."
"Sure, why not."
"Can I see Apple Jewel? Don't worry; I'm not going to leave with her right now." Twilight asked.
"Ah'll go get her." Apple Bloom said.
Apple Bloom trotted inside.
Let her choose her destiny. In her heart, she'll know what to do. So will you.
"Princess? You wanted to see me?" Apple Jewel asked.
"I had a little talk with Apple Bloom, your mom. She really wants you to stay, but she also wants you to follow your dreams. I was told that you should decide where you want to go. After all it's your destiny." Twilight answered.
"What will happen if I stay here?"
"It's up to you. You can still be my student and stay here. Or not, it's your choice."
Apple Jewel thought for a moment. She loved being Twilight's student, but she wanted to be home, with her little brother.
"Princess, I want to stay here and still be your student. I love being your student, but; I want to be with Green Apple." Apple Jewel decided.
"That's okay. I can come here and teach you, don't you worry Apple Jewel. I'll be coming to you tomorrow, while you still are my student. Can I tell you something that I have been waiting to tell you later, but I think I should now?" Twilight asked.
"What is it?"
"When you first became my student, I saw myself in you. When we went back, it took me back to that day we met. Well, what I am trying to say is-"
Apple Jewel put her hoof up in front of Twilight's mouth.
"I know. When we met you felt a connection. I did too, like we had known each other." Apple Jewel said.
"Yeah. Do you feel the same way?" Twilight asked.
"Yes. Your the best Princess that has lived. My mom told me all about you when I was small."
"Your mom knows a lot about me. And I have something else to tell you, but it's best that it wait."
"Okay. Bye Princess, I mean, Twilight."
"Bye Apple Jewel."
Twilight went to her friends gravesite and cried. She looked at everyone of them.
"Did you hear Applejack? Your niece is one of my students. But she made her decision to stay with Apple Bloom. I'm glad she decided to stay with her and her new little brother Green Apple. I only wish you were here still. You could see how much they have grown." Twilight cried.
"Ah' have watched them grow Twilight." a southern voice said.
Twilight turned around and saw 5 ponies and a dragon. Twilight was shocked, her friends.
"Hey Twilight! OOOOO, we've missed you so much!" Pinkie Pie said.
"You guys are alive?!" Twilight asked in tears.
"Not really, you see; when the elements are all together with the element of magic, we are all together. But when your not here, we go back. Even when the elements are activated, we won't be seen, but our power will be inside you. Until the elements are found by another pony." Rainbow Dash said.
"How did you find that out?" Twilight asked.
"I read."
"Well, I don't care right now. The one thing that I'm thinking about is you guys. I've missed you so much!"
They all hugged. Many tears fell from all the memories of their times together. Soon, Twilight had to return to the castle ; she said her goodbyes and trotted away. She looked back at the graves, she was only a few feet away, and they were gone. Her tears fell, she already missed them again.
We were friends before we even met!
A friend for life is what you are to me!
We all owe our cutie marks to you!
From a True, True Friend!
