The Revenge of Applejack

She trotted to a  cave in a forest in a secluded part of Pony Land where she gathered her self as she prepared for her first mission: to bring Firefly to the cave, which would be a refuge for escapees to heal and train for the fight to come.

She trotted cautiously out of the cave, and arrived at the castle. She snuck back over to the racing ring. However, a new lap of Pegasi were flying around the ring, and Firefly was probably in the castle. But maybe Lofty should come with her first. She was the most injured by far, so she would need the most time to heal.

Also, Princess thought she had killed Lofty, but she was alive and living alone under the castle. Applejack missed her and she was probably lonely under there.

She trotted into the castle, which was empty and desolate. Blood was also on the floor of the castle.

She trotted over to a small trap door and lifted it open with her mouth and jumped into the hole.

Blood from the castle dripped from the ceiling of the tunnel, and Applejack trotted further into the tunnel as the light faded gradually.

A small, mud door marked the end of the tunnel and Applejack trotted in.

"PleaseDontHurtMe!!" a British accented voice said. Applejack recognized it right away.

"Lofty!" Applejack called, smiling. She had never seen her friend in a worse state, bloody and hurt. A sorry sight, if ever there was one. But to Lofty, Applejack was a sight for sore eyes.

"I'm gonna help you get otta here!" Applejack said, grabbing Lofty and placing her on her back.

"Whoaaaaa!" Lofty cried as Applejack trotted out of the castle, and made a run for it.

They arrived at the cave as Applejack gently laid Lofty down on a bed of leaves that she had set of earlier.

"Thanks, AJ. You're a live saver." Lofty said, smiling.

"You're welcome. Hey, do you know why Cold Heart hates you so much?" Applejack asked.

"Who?" Lofty asked.

"That's what I call the so called Sunshine Princess. A more fitting name, don't you think?" Applejack said, trotting over to a small herb pile that she had also set up earlier.

"Yeah." Lofty laughed. Then she winced. She bent her head to lick a wound near her neck.

"Here, put this on it." Applejack said, holding an herb in her mouth and laid it on Lofty's wound.

"It stings a bit." Lofty said.

"Yeah, it should, but it'll be fine." Applejack said.

"How do you know about all these herbs?" Lofty asked.

"My mom taught me." AJ responded.

"Do you think little sis is alright?" Lofty asked. Her little sister, Baby Lofty, was probably in trouble right now.

"Honestly, no. Nopony is." Applejack said sadly.

"I have to go rescue her!" Lofty yelled, getting up wobbly. But she fell as her balance was lost.

"No, Lofty. You're weak and ya need to rest! I'll go." Applejack offered.

She trotted off as Lofty stared off longingly
