Chapter 1. The Trouble Maker
Somewhere in the shadows of the Everfree Forest, Discord the draconequus was up to no good as always. He was standing over a stone box. As he neared it, the box hopped, making a hissing sound.
"Shhh shhh my little nasty trouble maker, you'll be free soon." he said in quiet playful voice. He chuckled. Licking his lips, he quickly grabbed the stone box but jumped at the sound of a twig snapping. He dropped the box and turned to see Zecora the zebra standing with a shocked expression.
"What are doing with that box?! Answer me or I’ll knock off your socks!" she demanded.
"Oh… uh… nothing…" Discord picked the box up and smiled, showing that he was nervous.
"Discord, please don't open that box. I know what’s in there should be behind locks." the draconequus pouted and looked away from the zebra, holding his nose in the air.
"Oh you think just because I'm always up to no good, you think I'm up to no good. Oh my dear Zecora, you hurt my feelings." Discord complains. He walks around in a circle. "Oh madam, what has Celestia and Luna made you think of me..... Whoa!" Discord tripped on a loose root, falling face first into the ground. The box flew out of his arms. Zecora tried to grab it, but it was too late, the box shattered into the ground. From the cracked remains of the box, a small creature crawled out from half of the shattered box. The creature was only four inches tall, it shaped like pony but it looked like changeling of some kind. The creature was a shade of dark green. It had long legs with claws at the end. It had a sharp horn on its head that sparked with green static. It had two long, snake-like tails; there was a set of four tentacles on its back. The creature rubbed is bright green eyes and gave a yawn, showing off its tiny fangs and forked tongue.
Zecora tried to hurry and grab the creature before it was too late, but once it spotted her, the creature jumped into the air, making a hissing sound. The zebra looked up to see the creature glowing a bright blue with green sparks. The creature looked at her and laughed in a high pitched voice, then sticking it’s tongue out at her and zapping away. Zecora had an annoyed look, she turned to Discord who was smiling nervously.
"Hehe oops..."
At the Apple, Farm a red stallion was fast asleep in his comfy bed. The sun began to shine rays of light into his room. Big Macintosh turned over, now laying on his belly and his face buried in his pillow. The sound of a rooster got him to lazily open his eyes. He raised his head with a tired look on his face. His mane was messy but he could care less. He gave a big yawn, and then turned to the windows, giving a small smile. After breakfast, Big Macintosh had already started his morning chores. In a few hours, he had finished feeding the animals and chopping wood for the fireplace. Big Mac gathered a few baskets and started apple bucking.
Ponyville didn't take long to start booming with its shops and their customers. The Cakes were baking cupcakes and muffins for hungry ponies; Pinkie Pie was at the ordering desk taking orders while the Cakes baked.
"Oooorder Uuuuuuuup!" Pinkie Pie called with a big smile on her face as always. Pinkie reached down from behind the desk and pulled out a paper page full of chocolate chip muffins. A grey pegasus with crossed eyes and a golden yellow mane with bubbles as her cutie mark approached the desk.
“Thanks Pinkie."
"You’re welcome Derpy." she said with a smile. Derpy paid Pinkie and grabbed the bag of muffins. She walked from the desk to a table were a light brown stallion with a hour glass as his cutie mark, Derpy sat down in her seat.
"Got the muffins, Doctor."
"Oh, thank you Derpy," he replied, grabbing one from the bag. Derpy grabbed one and took a bite. Before the Doctor could take even a bite, his ears perked up to the sound of something that sounded like a bug zapper. Derpy noticed the sound as well but it died down before she could take interest. She was about to take her second bite, but stopped. Her crossed eyes widen and her mouth hung open in shock. A creature stood on her muffin and hissed at her.
"Ahhh!" Derpy tossed the muffin on the floor.
"Derpy, what's..." a green zapping light floated up in the air, getting everyponies’ attention. The green light zapped out the door, leaving all the ponies with shocked looks. Pinkie's bottom jaw stretched down and hit the floor, but quickly turned to normal.
"Wow… must be a new kind of muffin." Pinkie Pie said with a wide eyed expression.
The creature zapped across parts of Ponyville, jumping into other ponies muzzles and hissing at them or leaping on their food or drinks before being swat at. The zapping mini-terror bolted into windows, shattering them, breaking flower pots, taking candy from fillies and colts and devouring them at a fast speed that makes Pinkie Pie's sugar rush look like the speed of a tortoise.
In the library, the purple alicorn Twilight Sparkle floated in the air with the help of her wings, grabbing a book on the highest shelf. Spike, her dragon assistant was relaxing on a chair that he rocked back and forth with the help of his tail. Suddenly, a sound of shattering glass made them jump causing, Spike to fall out of his tail and Twilight to yelp. The zapping green light buzzed up to Twilight, floating in front of her for a moment before buzzing around her book, causing sheds of paper fly out everywhere. The green light left nothing but a piece of the book cover in her hoof.
"Hey, you can't do that!" Spike growled at the light. The light buzzed down to the little dragon. Spike leapt at it like predator catching its prey, but missed. The green light dodged him. The green light dimmed down, showing the small flying creature. It started to make a zapping sound before a spark shot out of its horn, zapping Spike in the rear.
"EEEEOOWWW!" Spike screamed. He faced the laughing creature, then huffed in his chest and shot out a fire ball that exploded like a fire cracker, leaving the creature coughing up smoke puffs and covered in black soot. Spike gave a little growl, making the creature hiss at him. It then zapped behind the dragon, grabbing his tail then spinning him in a circle. Twilight rushed over to help but was caught by the creature as well and joined Spike in mini-twister. The creature let both Twilight and Spike fly into the bookshelves, making books fall on them. The creature spat its tongue out at them, then it zapped out the broken window, leaving Twilight and Spike in a silent library with dumb founded looks. It was quiet for three minutes, but Spike broke the silence "What the heck just happened?!"
The creature zapped into Rarity's home, ripping up new dresses she had just made. She screamed and tried chasing the little beast throughout her home with a broom and Sweetie Belle with a fly swatter.
"I will destroy you! You horrible little brute!" the white unicorn roared. The creature left the unicorn sisters home. It zapped around the town, knocking over a stallion painting a house on a tall ladder, leaving him covered in paint. The creature flew up to where Rainbow Dash was sleeping on a cloud. It sent out a bolt, shocking her.
"UAAAAAH!" Dash screamed. She was left with a charred and smoking rump. The creature let a tiny laugh. "Why you little!" Rainbow Dash growled. She tried to grab, it but it zapped under her, making her go upside down and land on the cloud. The little creature zapped down to the Apple Stand. It giggled, licking it’s lips and fangs. It devoured most of the apples and leaving the cores in a matter of seconds. Applejack and her sister tried to catch the creature, but missed as it zapped off towards Sweet Apple Acres.
The red stoic stallion bucked the trees, causing all of the apples to fall from the branches and into the buckets. He was at it for about five hours; it was time for a break. Big Macintosh cracked his neck and stretched his legs. He looked down at the fresh apples in the bucket.
'Might as well make it a lunch break' he thought. Hooking at the juicy apples, he spotted a big shiny red apple. He picked it from the bucket and rubbed it on his fur to make it shine. Big Mac sat down on the roots of a tree he had bucked. He sat up, putting his arms behind his head and relaxed.
Somewhere in Sweet Apple Acres, the little creature zapped from tree to tree, just looking for something to mess around with. It spotted the red stallion sitting by the tree. It brought it’s claws together, twinkling them and giving a devilish smile. Big Macintosh gave a big yawn, he brought the apple up to his muzzle and took a bite, chewing and then swallowed. The little creature revved up like it was in a race and bolted right for Big Mac.
Big Mac, not even knowing what was coming, took a bite, chewing the bits of apple. Then he opened his maw to take another bite, the creature couldn't stop, it buzzed right towards the stallion's mouth. The little creature flew passed his teeth and splattered into the apple mush. Big Mac took another bite, chewing the piece up into bits. He could have sworn something was crawling in his mouth; it was probably just a big piece of apple he didn't get. He gave a loud swallow that almost made him hiccup and burp. Big Mac just finished off the apple and returned to work.
Back in Ponyville, everypony had cleaned the messes left from the creature. Carrot Top, a yellow earth pony was cleaning up what was left of her garden. It was turned upside down by the little beast and most of her prized carrots were eaten. A green unicorn, Lyra and her best friend Bon Bon, a tan yellow earth pony with a purple and pink mixed mane, were helping pick up the flipped over tables and shattered glasses with Vinyl Scratch, the DJ unicorn of Ponyville. Twilight and Spike had stopped by the Cakes to talk with Pinkie Pie who was in a frantic mood.
"So how did this all happen?" Twilight asked.
"Well Idon'tknowIwasmakingmuffinsfor acustomerandand!" Pinkie Pie yelled, her mouth had to have gone in three different speeds but was quickly stopped by Twilight's hoof going in her mouth.
"Pinkie, please just try to calm down a little, or just too your normal Pinkie self." Twilight took her hoof out and let the pink mare breath.
"Okay. Well, I was handing out an order and then this thing pops up out of no we're and ran amuck." Pinkie was able to say calmly. Twilight put a hoof to her bottom jaw "I wonder what that thing could have been?"
"I think we have the answer you seek. It happens to involve this multi-part freak." Zecora walked along up the street with a guilty Discord being held by his ear as Zecora pulled him along with her.
"Mmm… Discord, why am I not surprised." Spike rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. Zecora dragged Discord in front of her.
"Alright, start explaining your nasty deed, or else medical attention, you’ll desperately need." Discord rubbed his ear and saw the angry faces of the ponies and dragon. He gave a nervous gulp.
"So, everypony having a good day?"
"NO!" the crowd shouted.
"What did you do this time Discord?" Twilight sighed.
"Uh alright, alright. I was getting a box that I left in the Everfree Forest a hundred years ago and I thought the little fella could use some fresh air."
"Get to the point, what did you unleash?" Twilight demanded.
"Uh, it's a called a Trouble Maker. It just likes to have a little fun, that's all." he said, giving a little chuckle after seeing all damage the Trouble Maker caused. The ponies grumbled.
"Well, since you know all about this thing, where is it now?" Twilight asked. Discord blinked and shrugged his shoulders and giving a smile.
"Well I don't know." Twilight face hoofed and sighed loudly.
Applejack and Applebloom had returned to Sweet Apple Acres after a long day. Applejack was able to sell at least few of what was left of her apples. They had been given a good pay but it was a small amount. Applejack was pacing back and forth in the main room, complaining about the terrible creature that Twilight called the Trouble Maker.
"How dare that little varmint eat my profits?! If ah see that thing again, I'll teach em a lesson he won't forg,.." Applejack felt a hoof pat her on the back. Big Macintosh was standing beside her with a worried look on his face. Applejack sighed.
"Don't worry AJ, it's okay. You and Applebloom did alright fer today." Big Mac said in asoft booming voice, trying to cheer his sister up.
"Huh, yeah… you’re right." Big Mac smiled.
"Eeyup." he hugged his sister and patted her head.
"Come and get it!" Granny Smith called from the kitchen. The Apple siblings sniffed the air; she had made her delicious apple pies and fritters. AJ's mouth watered.
"Alright, now we’re talking." Applejack raced to the kitchen with Big Macintosh slowly behind.
The Apple Family had eaten a great dinner. With full bellies, they all sat in the living room, Granny Smith sitting in her big chair and the three Apple siblings sharing the couch. Big Macintosh sat in the middle, propping his hooves up on a stool. The whole house was quiet till his stomach made a loud growling sound that alerted his sisters and grandmother. Suddenly, Big Mac stood up. He looked like he was in a daze. He quickly reached over to the side of the couch, snatching a small pillow, then shoving it in his mouth and swallowing it whole. Once the pillow vanished into his gut he shook his head and saw his family staring at him.
"Di,.. Did I just eat a pillow?” he asked, sounding terrified.
"Eeyup…" AJ replied.
Granny felt Big Mac's head for a fever. "You feeling okay, dear?" Big Mac rubbed his head.
"Yeah I’m okay. I must be tired… Uhh… goodnight." Big Mac said sounding eager to leave and not face embarrassment. He ran upstairs into his room and closed the door.
"Hey Big Mac, want ketchup and mustard on your bed sheet?" Applebloom called up and then was slapped on the head by Applejack.
Later that night, while everypony was turned in for the night, Big Macintosh was tossing around in his bed. The poor work horse held his stomach as it made a rumbling sound. He moaned painfully. Big Mac kicked off his blanket, his belly rumbled louder. A bright green light could be seen inside. Big Mac's body started making a cracking sound.
Celestia raised the sun on a new day. Applejack woke to the sound of a rooster crowing. Applejack uncovered herself and gave a big yawn. She had tired eyes and messy mane. A loud bang echoed across the barn. Applejack sprinted out of room; the sound came from Big Mac's room. She bucked the door open and stopped. She froze to see a large hole in the room. Big Mac's bed was flattened the pillows had be smashed in so much that the feathers were floating everywhere.
"Oh no, Big Mac!" she yelled out, putting her hooves up to her mouth "Big Mac! Big Mac!" she yelled even louder in the hope her brother wasn't hurt or worse?!?
"EEYUP!" Big Mac's voice echoed through the room. Applejack almost lost her balance, the barn shook. Through the large hole came a shade of shadowed red and then a pair of giant eyes. AJ yelped, her eyes widened and her jaw dropped.
"Wha... the... hay?" she brushed a hoof through her messy mane, keeping it away from her eyes to make sure she wasn't seeing things. "Bi… Big Mac?" she asked recognizing the worried light green eyes.
"Eeyup."

Author's Note
An old story I'm bringing back to here and remaking. Hope everypony likes it. =3
The Apple family had gone outside to see the brand new gigantic member of their family. Applebloom was staring with her mouth open and Granny Smith was shaking and her eyes were twitching. Big Macintosh had a nervous look on his face; he didn't want to scare his family with his new size. He was sitting down but tried to lower himself so he didn't look too scary.
"Big Mac, how did this happen?" AJ asked, Big Mac shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't know."
"Did you drink a potion?"
"Nope."
"Cast some kinda spell on ya?"
"Nope."
"Walk in Poison Joke?"
"Nope." Applejack put her hoof up to jaw she gave an irritated look.
"Alright, I'm gonna get Twilight. Maybe she can help us." Applejack ran as fast as she could to Ponyville. Applejack arrived with Twilight, Spike and rest of her friends to the Apples farm to see the giant Big Mac.
To his surprise, he didn't know his sister was bringing them too. He didn't like this, not one bit. It was like when he was caught with the Smartly Pants doll in the paper. Applejack walked over to the barn to see her brother trying to hide behind the barn.
"What’s wrong?" Big Mac peeked out from behind the barn.
"Y'all said you were just gonna bring Twilight here." he said in mad tone.
"Sorry Big Mac, I tried to get just Twilight here, but they wanted to come too. I tried to make them understand, but they wouldn't listen." Big Mac frowned. He didn't want everybody in Ponyville to see him as some kind of giant monster.
Big Macintosh sheepishly stepped out from behind the barn; this made all of Applejack's friends gasp and stare. Applejack hid her face under her hat, feeling embarrassed for her brother. Big Mac looked down at them, they all had the same surprised expression, but Fluttershy was looking at him with a look of pity.
"Oh you poor, poor thing how did this happen? " She spoke quietly.
“That’s what I’d like to know.” Applejack replied fixing her hat.
“Ooo~ Ooo~ Maybe he wanted to be a new monster in all those kaiju movies.” Pinkie Pie giggled and leaped happily. “I can see it now. Gigant-Macasurus vs. Legendary Ursa Major!”
“Pikine not help’en!” Applejack roared with her and Big Mac scowling at the pink mare.
“Sorry just trying to light the mood. Hehe~” She giggled. Big Mac only hoof palmed himself in the face and gave out a loud snort that blew Rainbow Dash a few feet away.
Big Mac sat down in front of Twilight, who had a book with her; she read a few of the pages.
"Maybe this will work." Twilight's horn glowed, a bright white and light purple a beam shot from her horn, hitting Big Macintosh surrounding his gigantic form in bright spear.
It did nothing; Big Macintosh was still the size of a house. "Uhh… hold on." Twilight flipped a few pages, she hit Big Mac with another spell but it did nothing but cover him in black ash.
“Eeyup.” He shook off the ash looking irritated. Applejack put a hoof to her face.
"Are any of these spells supposed to work?" Applejack asked sounding very irritated.
"I'm trying to use spells that will reverse other spells and curses, but those first didn't work. I could try all these spells, but maybe this isn't a curse or spell."
"Well what else could it be?" Big Mac asked.
"I don't know; it could be anything." she said. Big Mac sighed, dropping his head in a feeling of defeat. Twilight had tried a few more spells, some sticking Big Mac’s mane and tail up in shocking static, others made him turn a different coat of colors like green, yellow, bright brown with a dark brown mane and tail but none had no luck in finding out how to change Big Mac back to normal.
Twilight showed disappointment "I'm really sorry Big Mac."
"It's alright Miss Twilight." The giant walked to the side of the barn and sat down . Twilight promising she would try to find new spells to help Big Mac.
Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie left as well, wishing Big Mac luck getting back normal and Pinkie promising she would throw him a back to normal party. Applejack waved goodbye to her friends, she turned to see her brother looking depressed .She walked over to the front of his muzzle.
"Ya feel'n okay Big Mac?"
"Nope." he said in the lowest tone he had. Applejack sighed, she rubbed her head. Her mane fluttered from the small gusts of wind coming out from Big Mac's nostrils. AJ perked up and gave a smile, she hit Mac on the nose, surprising him and making him snort.
"Well Big Mac, just because you’re a little bigger, that doesn't mean you can't help me with apple bucking." Big Mac gave a small smile. He stood up, showing his new full height.
"Eeyup," Applejack and Applebloom got some buckets around a few trees.
"This should be easy fer ya now," Applebloom said with smile on her face. Big Mac walked into the acres, being careful not step on his sisters or the trees.
Both Applejack and Applebloom waited to see what Big Mac would do; he reached down and just gently tapped the tree with his hoof. All the apples fell off the branches and landed in the bucket. Big Mac smiled, feeling accomplished. Applejack joined him with the apple bucking. Big Macintosh had collected more apples from the trees than he ever had when he was a normal size stallion. AJ and Mac decided to take a break. Big Mac gently walked over the trees and watched his sister below him, making sure he didn't step on her by mistake.
He carefully stepped out from the acres; he turned his head to see his sister behind him, he smiled warmly reaching over picking Applejack up in his hoof and setting her down beside the barn house. Winona came out of the barn barking at Big Mac with Applebloom chasing after her.
“WINONA COM’ER!” Applebloom shouted.
The angered filly chased the dog, trying to catch her the dog ran around Big Mac's legs biting at his hooves with Applebloom behind.
Big Macintosh tried to walk away but Winona leapt up at his hooves, barking at him, and then Applebloom went under the other hoof. Big Mac avoided from stepping on his sister and Winona; he stepped left to avoid Applebloom. Winona went to Mac's back legs, then to his front again, and then she tried biting his left hoof.
“Applebloom stop fool’n around and grab her!” Applejack roared as Big Mac paused from spinning and was now behind her gigantic brother.
The red thundering giant stepped around avoiding the leaping dog and filly turning around in full circle making him dizzy as the dog leaped at his hoof again. He moved his leg back but didn't see the wagon under his hoof.
“Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!” The wagon was like a loose skate. Big Mac's back leg went back and forth; he tried to keep standing but lost his balance and fell backwards.
Applejack jumped in shock as Big Macintosh’s suddenly started falling backwards, and his enormous red rear was now casting a doubled lumped shadow around her, her eyes widen and her jaw dropped in shock she tried to run a different direction but it was closing in very fast. To her unfortunate luck,.. The only safe place was in Big Macintosh’s crack. She didn’t want to take the risk of being flatten.
"Please don't let this come back to haunt me." Applejack cringed as Big Macintosh’s flank lowered down. She was smothered in between the the cheeks, the red hill sized hindquarters turned her new view red. The pudgy cheeks pressed down on her then squished together by her brother's enormous, squishy but bulky butt.
~BOOM!~
The trees around barn shook, causing the apples to fall off all the branches. The vibration shook some parts of Ponyville, causing a few ponies to feel tremors. Granny Apple Smith went running out of the barn screaming, "Earthquake!" repeatedly as she ran out of barn. Big Macintosh eyes widen in shock.
"Oh no!" he carefully lifted his rump up and looked into the spot he landed in, his sister was gone. "OH NO! No no! AJ, where are you?" The worried stallion stood up, swinging his head back and forth, looking for his missing sister.
“Uhhh,... Just when I thought today couldn’t get worse.” Applejack managed to say with her face being squished between the gigantic red cheeks. Applejack tried to climb out only to be squished further between the two titanus cheeks holding her in place, she fought and pushed finally getting free,... only half way free only her left foreleg and head was now sticking out of the double cheeked prison.
The red titanic cheeks squeezed her tight, she pushed on the two pudgy cheeks trying to get free, but then stopped when everything started spinning around making Applejack stop and accept her prison.
"Uh oh." Was all she could think. Applejack was expecting the worst. She heard Big Mac calling her, while the whole world twisted in circles. She was beginning to turn green, now she was holding on to Big Mac's rear for dear life, hoping not to get flung all the way to Manehatten.
"Big Mac, STOOOOP!" She yelled, then the whole world paused.
"AJ?" The giant stallion asked, still looking.
"I'm right here big brother." Big Macintosh brought his rear up and lurked his head over to his rump to see his sister sticking between his cheeks. The stallion sighed, then chuckled a bit and turned redder than his normal red.
"Sorry sis." he said, trying not to laugh. Big Mac lowered his rear and had Granny Smith and Applebloom pull her from his rump.
Once Applejack was off Big Macintosh's rump, he looked over to see her rubbing her head. Big Mac scooped up his sister and brought her to his face. "AJ, I'm really really really really sorry about that." He said sounding guilty.
"It's okay Mac, was just an accident." Big Mac sighed, rubbing his head, still feeling pretty guilty.
The two siblings went back to do some apple bucking with Big Mac apologizing every ten minutes and Applejack telling him it was alright. They decided to take another break, but this time with Winona tied up by her dog house and Applejack riding on top of Mac's head. Applejack snuggled into Big Mac's mane, she watched the whole barn from above, she even saw a cloud go by.
"Like it up there sis? Big Mac asked.
"Eeyup," AJ replied. Big Macintosh carefully sat down by the barn; he looked over at his rump to make sure he didn't sit on anypony again. AJ slid down Big Mac's neck onto his back. Applejack was ready to call it a day; she wanted to go see Twilight to see if she found a cure for her brother.
~GROOOOWL!~
Applejack jumped from the sound of Big Mac's stomach growling. Big Mac had a dumbfounded look on his face, then he brought a hoof to his head.
"I feel sick." Big Mac's eyes suddenly widen and turned a bright lime green. Big Mac stomped up, almost knocking AJ off, but she grabbed on to the stallion's mane.
Big Macintosh ran into the apple acres leaving behind a gigantic hoof prints behind him as he scattered threw the stick sized trees. Big Mac grabbed an apple tree with his mouth then scarfed it down
"Big Mac! !What are doing?!" Despite her yelling and pounding on his head Big Mac ignored her. He grabbed two more trees, chewing them up and swallowing them down with a fearsome loud gulp! Applejack held on as Big Mac stomped over to the barn and took a large chomp out of it, leaving a huge bite mark in Family farm gulping it down and licking the wooden chips stuck to his lips and teeth and then turned his head towards Ponyville and stomped his way towards the town.
Granny Smith didn't notice the large bite mark in the living room; she was too busy rocking back and forth in her chair. She opened her squinted eyes and looked around "Did somepony open a window?"
