Life's great mystery
Chapter 3: the Apples
Previous ChapterNext ChapterCaramel, still in awe about his encounter with a princess continued on the road with Big Mac. I wonder how much farther he thought
Big Mac looked at the dog carrier in Caramels hand and asked " What's your dog's name.'
Caramel also looked down at the carrier, he had forgotten it was in his had when he met twilight "Mallow, her names mallow."
Big mac looked at the carrier again and said " I have a dog too, her name Winona. I guess now Winona wont be so lonely." Big Mac told Caramel about how Winona and his sister once saved Ponyville from a stampede.
"Really." said Caramel in a unconvinced tone
"I can prove it when we get to the farm." said the older of the two.
after about 15 minutes the made it to the gates to the farm. it was an average farm with a stereotypical red barn, a few animal pens, and a chicken coop. in front of the barn was an elderly looking mare in a rocking chair. I guess the old lady sleeping in the chair is Granny Smith he thought taking a closer look wait is she breathing? he ran as fast as he could to get to where she was. when he go t closer he could hear her snoring. he sighed in relief as Big Mac was running after him
"What's wrong caramel. Why were you running." said the older boy
"I thought that elderly lady was dead." said caramel
"Oh, a lot of folks make that mistake when they first get her and see Granny over here in her chair," Big Macintosh said to calm down the other boy "heck even gave me a scare once"
"Really" caramel said surprised
Big Mac looked at him and gave him a hardy "eeyup"
They walked toward the the barn house. when they got to the screen door caramel heard a voice of a little girl saying "When are they gonna be here"
"Hold you're horses" That's when he heard a voice he had heard last winter thats why the name was so familiar he thought apple jack was the name of the girl who was in the exchange last year. they became very close over the two months she was there and became one of his best friends even told her the secret he didn't want people to know. She didn't think any less of him.
"I recon any minute now" said the familiar voice
Caramel rushed though the screen door and was greeted by a familiar face. His face lite up with joy. "Applejack!" He said with excitement at the sight of the orange skinned girl
"Caramel!" She said "it's so good to see you again." She ran up to him and gave him a hug. After the hug she stepped out of the way so he could see a girl with yellow skin and and Apple red hair applebloom, no doubt he though
"Caramel this is my sister apple bloom, and I see you've already met Big Mac" applejack said
"Yeah and Granny Smith" caramel said
"Who's that" said an elderly voice
Caramel turned around to see an elderly women with green skin and white hair in a bun
"Granny this is Caramel, the exchange student from Vanhoover" said applejack in a calm voice
"No" said the old lady "the exchange student is a girl, he is obviously a boy"
"Granny" said little apple bloom "did you use your reading glasses when you read the paper"
Caramel couldn't help but laugh at how adorable applebloom was
"No" said Granny Smith she picked up the paper that was on the counter put on her reading glasses and looked at the paper. "Well it looks like I was wrong, but the only spare bed is in applejack's room. So you can stay in there for the time being but no funny business"
Caramel nodded and said "yes ma'am"
