Ah'm Applebloom! Today is the first day of cider season, and ah can't wait to get every pony a fine glass of our cider. They're gathering outside as ah speak!

But why do they all look so pale? And why are mah sis and mah brother tellin' me to go and run away from the farm? Won't they need mah help?

My name is Sweetie Belle! Nice to meet you! Rarity's been so paranoid lately! More so than usual, and that's surprising!

She won't let me go outside, not even to go to school. She rarely goes out herself, and when she does, she comes back with a bunch of food and water.

Hey, that's featherweight outside! Why is he so pale?

I'm Scootaloo!

Work with my mom at the orphanage is busier than ever! So many new foals come every day, but why?

Two of them have been bitten by dogs, and now they're sick. They're so pale, and they've developed a biting problem too.

My mother kicked us all out, one of the foals bit her. Is she okay?
