Load Full Story

AppleJack went through the check-list of Supplies that she would need for the journey. But she was still afraid of the fact that her own family wouldn't come with her. She spent the entire morning packing a wagon with all the supplies she would need for the journey. But it wouldn't last her forever. She even packed the book with information about Earth. Just incase

"Well, i guess that's the last of it. I've got plenty of apples, pies, other food. Plenty of tools, Water. This should last me 2 months out there. Provided i don't scavenge things at all." She said to herself. AppleJack turned to the barn and gave off a sigh. She would be giving this all away. The apple family worked so hard on this farm. But now she would be leaving it all behind.

"Well, i guess this is it than. No use saying goodbye to the others, they'd just drag me back. But i know Earth is where my fate is at." She told herself attaching herself to the wagon. "Well, i guess this is goodbye" She said to her surroundings. She may never see this place again. She would be leaving this place forever.

She begun walking out of the farm off into the distance. The book did give some information on the location of The portal. It said the adventurers traveled South. So south is where she would be travelling. But there was one thing she was nervous about. She didn't know what lays outside Equestria. But it didn't last too long when she heard a voice calling back for her.

"WAAAIIIIT!" the voice cried. "APPLEJACK WAIT!"

"What is it now" AppleJack said to herself turning to look behind her. "AppleBloom?"

AppleBloom came running towards AppleJack at high speed. When she made it to AppleJack, she gave her a big hug.

"I know i didn't say goodbye, but you didn't have to come running out here" AppleJack said to AppleBloom.

"No, We're coming with you!" AppleBloom said confusing AppleJack.

"Say again?" asked AppleJack.

"We. Are. Coming. With. You!"

"You're coming with me? But why? I thought you liked it here?" asked AppleJack. Does AppleBloom really want to come?

"I do. But Earth sounds way better, and i don't want to leave you to yourself."

"But what about your friends? Don't you love them?"

"I do. But like Granny Smith says Friends come and go, but family is forever"

"I'm So glad you're coming, i don't think i would've made it out here by myself." AppleJack said giving AppleBloom another hug. "Say, you said We. Are Granny Smith and Big mac coming?"

"We're right here!" A voice called out behind AppleJack. She turned to see Granny Smith and Big Mac coming with another packed cart. When they reached AppleJack. She Gave them both a hug.

"You are coming too?" she asked not breaking the hug.

"EEyup" replied Big mac detaching his cart from himself.

"We didn't want to leave you out here alone, so we decided to come with you. Lucky we made it in time" Granny Smith told AppleJack.

"Aww, thankyou everypony." AppleJack said grabbing Them all into a hug.

"I t-think, that's e-enough h-hugs for now!" AppleBloom said struggling to breathe.

"Oops, sorry Y'all. Wait, is anyone else coming or is it just us?"

"I'm sure it's just us. I didn't hear any other pony say they're coming." answered AppleBloom.

Wait, so Pinkie Pie's not coming? AppleJack thought to herself. I really thought she would come.

Suddenly, movement came from Big mac's cart. They stepped away from the cart in fear as Pinkie Pie came shooting out.

"I'M HERE!" She shouted landing on the ground.

"Pinkie Pie, you're coming? I Thought you weren't!"

"Oh c'mon, of course i'm coming. Wait where are we going? Doesn't matter." said Pinkie Pie cartwheeling around.

"AppleBloom, i thought you said no one was coming." said AppleJack pointing to the cart.

"We didn't know she was in there!" Answered AppleBloom confused.

Pinkie Pie gave off a giggle at them.

"YOU SHALL NEVER KNOW HOW I GOT THERE!"

"I don't really care how you got there, i just care that you got here." said AppleJack as she attached her cart to herself.

"Which way are we going? OOH, OOH, OOH. I know what this is! We're going to have to pick one right now!" asked Pinkie Pie to AppleJack as they all prepared to continue.

"South." answered AppleJack as Pinkie Pie got disappointed.

"AWW, i wanted to go East!"

"I guess no other Earth ponies are coming then." said AppleJack as they started walking South.

"You know That AppleLoosa Is down south right?" questioned Granny Smith Half-answering AppleJack's question.

"AppleLoosa is south? Does that mean we could convince them of coming with us?" asked AppleJack with a smirk.

"I'm sure we could convince some of them to come. But i can't guarantee it." answered Granny Smith.

"Enough questions, Let's go already!" Said AppleBloom Annoyed with all the delay, walking ahead of them.

"Alright, Alright. We're going! I always thought i was the one who wanted to go, but it seems like you're more eager." said AppleJack to AppleBloom getting on with the adventure.

"No, but i don't like waiting around long."

The Apple Family didn't know it, but this was the beginning of their journey to Earth.
