Missing Equestria

Applejack looked out of the balcony, an army of inslaved ponies worked for there lives. Many of them cried, many died by the wip, others cried. It was dark outside, nopony had seen the sun in months. After the nightmare forces took over Applejack's friends. She looked back into what once was Canterlot castle, all her 'friends' was laughing at a group of slaves being punished. To be honest, it hurt Applejack to see ponies so sad and hopeless. She took one last glare over the dark sky before going iniside. She didn't want to see those ponies in pain, she walked by.

"Hay AJ! Come look at this!" The nightmare that looked like Rainbow Dash said.

"No thank ya..." Applejack said and walked to her room, she layed down on the bed. She wanted to sleep and wait for the morning, but she as everypony else knew that the sun would never rise again. "Ah don't want this..." She whispered out to nothing. Applejack had changed, she had longer blond mane her coat had changed to black, but her eyes remained green.

The once heroines sat in the throne room talking about AJ acting strange.

"What's up with her? She never watch them get punished, she don't give them nightmares... She freaking give them dreams!!" Rainbow shouted, her voice rised as she said it. At last her anger had shown she had begun to fly. Her black lether wing went up and down like it was the last thing to do. Rainbow's mane had grown, her wings turned into lether and her eyes had changed to moon blue. Her coat had gone from sky blue to black.

"Calm down Rainbow, she didn't get used to it as easy as we did" Rarity said, Rarity's had changed, it was so much longer and it was a softer color of purple it had also withe stripes in it. Her coat had changed to black too. Everyone's coat was black now, and everyone's eyes was moon blue. They had all changed to alicorns as well. Only the hair was different. Fluttershy still had her long pink mane, Twilight was still the same, her mane was just longer. Pinke! Pinkie had not only gotten longer hair, she had grown fangs.

"But.... But!!" Rainbow said as she waved her hooves confused infront of her.

"Applejack will change sooner or later..." Twilight said with an evil grin.

"Why don't we ask about what she want, and maybe she'll change faster?!" Pinkie suggested jumping in her throne.

"Maybe thats a good idea..." Fluttershy said low, she may be a nightmare, but she was still shy.

The mane five made their way over to Applejack's room.

"Who goes first?" Rainbow asked.

"We are going in together..." Twilight said. They pushed the door open, Applejack sat by the window she looked outside to the darkness. She wasn't sleeping, it looked like she was daydreaming... Or night dreaming.

"Applejack?" Rarity asked, Applejack turned her head slightly but quickly reversed her direction.

"What do ya want?!" Applejack growled at them. Ater the change, she bearly wanted to see them.

"Is it anything you need?" Fluttershy asked, they had all walked into the room and gather around Applejack.

Applejack mumbled something under her breath.

"What was that?" Rarity asked.

"Nothing... Just leave me alone..." Applejack said.

"No, we are not leaving you until you understand you new place!" Rainbow yelled.

"Fine! Stay! I'm not!" Applejack quickly teleported herself away. She landed somewhere in the elderfree forest.

"Rainbow Dash?! Why?! We had her so close!" Twilight yelled.

"I was getting inpatient." Rainbow said as she was about to leave "she will come back anyways"

Applejack walked through the elderfree forest, she didn't know where she was going but all she wanted was to leave this... Nightmare. She walked and walked. She came to a big clearing, in the middle was five tomstones, each of them had the mane of an apple that lived in ponyville. Big Mac, Apple Bloom, Granny Smith, Appleseed and Lightheart. "Ah miss ya.... Ah miss ya'll werry much... Ah miss Equestria..." Applejack said, she layed down before the tomes and Peacefully fell asleep.

When Applejack was asleep, she went into another dimension, a dimension whee none of them became nightmares. Applejack wasn't visible in this world, she walked into town. Ponies was happy, everyone was happy, then Applejack saw it.... She saw herself. It broke her heart to see herself haveing fun with her family. She started to cry, and woke up from the dream.

Applejack rised fro her place and started to walk, she walked nad walked, until she came to as place she never could forget, her Sweet Apple Acers, but this wasn't her home. This was a bat filled apple field, evey tree was dead. Applejack made her way over to the farm house, she pushed the door open, the inside was dusty. It hadn't been cleaned in mouths. Applejack walked into the house, she looked at old photos of her and her loving family. She missed them so much, she would give anything just to see them, just a minute. "Ma? Pa? Mac? Granny? Bloom? If ya'll can heare me... Ah'm so sorry fot what ah have done... Ah am so... So sorry..." Applejack said, her eyes flooded with tears of pain and sorrow.

"Applejack?..." A small voice said, Applejack looked around.

"H-Hallo?" She asked.

"Applejack I'm sceard" the voice shot Applejack in the heart,

"Apple Bloom!" She yelled, her hope was starting to rise.

"Applejack... Help..." Apple Bloom's voice slowly faded. Applejack ran after the sound of her sister.

"Apple Bloom where are ya?" She yelled. She ran upstairs and looked in every room. Nothing. "Apple Bloom...." Applejack whispered as she sat down on her sisters bed.

"Applejack... Ah miss ya sis..." Applejack looked up, she gasped as she saw the spirit of Apple Bloom in the door.

"Apple Bloom! Yer... Ah miss ya to..." Applejack cried.

"Sis?"

"Hm?"

"Thank ya"

"For what? Ah am a nightmare!" Applejack cried. Apple Bloom placed her spiritual hoof on her sisters shoulder.

"Ah thank ya for nor changin" Apple Bloom said, a tear came from her eye.

"Ah shal revenge ya sis..." Applejack said as she rised from the bed.

"Ah'll say hi to the others for ya" Bloom finished and vanished.

"Thanks sis..." Applejack smiled. Now time to fight.

The godness is back

"Seriously, she's been gone for two nights now... Not that day is a thing..." Rainbow said, for some reason she cared about Applejack, she like the other's wanted/needed all the elements.

"Calm down Rainbow, I'm sure she is fine.... Its not like somepony could hurt her." Rarity said.

"Look!" Pinkie yelled as she looked out the window. The others came over to the windoe and looked out, Applejack was walking in the sculpture garden. She looked at one statue, it had three alicorns. The last rulers of Equestria, Princess Celestia, Luna and Cadence.

"What is she doing?" Twilight asked. From the looks of it, Applejack was studying the statue. She looked around, and looked up at the window. The five nightmares dived out of sight, they poked there heads up, but both Applejack and the statue was gone. They gasped, they now saw what Applejack was up to

"We have to stop her!" Rainbow yelled.

"Wait, she is back." They looked outside to see Applejack teleport back. She walked over to another statue the statue was out view of the window, they hurried over to another window. Applejack stood by the foot of Discord, she teleported herself and discord away.

"She is collecting power..." They whispered.

"The slaves!" They all ran over to the balcony, the slaves was asleep. As well as the guards. "Wake up!" They yelled.

"Its no use.." Applejack said, she flapped her wings gently in the air.

"Applejack? What has gotten into you?" Rainbow asked.

Applejack smriked and used her horn. Everypony at the ground started to glow, then after a blink they were gone.

"What are you doing!?" All of them said, they cornerd Applejack against the castle wall. Applejack quickly teleported herself away.

"What the?! She is trying to stop us!" Pinkie yelled.

"Dont worry, she dont have much" Rarity said.

"She have the three other princesses, she have the god of chaos, she have 10,000 slaves, that probably don't like us." Twilight said.

"But we have something we can use against her..." Rarity said, they all flew inside.

"What do we have?" Pinkie asked.

"This" Rarity said, she held up a bobble, inside was an apple.

"An apple?"

"Sweet Apple Acers, before the nightmares." Everyone looked at each other and smiled.

Applejack landed in a huge cave. 10,000 ponies was laying around, she casted a spell that would heal then. Every scar vanished, their thin body grew. And a blanket coverd their body. Applejack looked at the statues, she walked over to the one with the princesses, she cast a spell that would free them. The stone slowly vanished from their bodies. The three princesses fell to the ground one by one as Applejack finished the spell. She panted heavily as she looked up to see the princesses free from their prison.

"You!" They said in anger, Cadence tried to fire a spell but missed. When she was about to fire again, Celestia stopped her.

"Why did you stop me? She's a traitor!" Cadence yelled.

"If she is a traitor, how come we are free?" Celestia asked, Cadence looked confused at Applejack

"Aplejack?" Luna asked. "Why did you free us?"

"Ah need yer help... Can ya help me get Equestria back?" The three princesses looked shocked at Applejack, and nodded. "Thank ya.."

"How are you not corrupted?" Luna asked.

"Ah dunno... It just didn't work..."

"Thats... Good... So what's the plan?" Celestia asked.

"Umm... Discord! Ag think we need him too" they nodded. They began, the stone around Discord's body vanished and he was free once again.

"Oh, it good to be back." He said. "What can I do to get Equestria back?" He said. Applejack and the princesses smirked and started to train the once slaved ponies.

"So what do we do?" Fluttershy asked as they walked inside the elderfree forest. She and Rainbow had go e there to find Applejack, Rainbow couldn't wait to corrupt her.

"Like I said, we are her to find Aj"

"But the others sai-" fluttershy started.

"I know, but I can't wait for herto come to us, so we're getting her now." Rainbow said and took off to the sky. She and Fluttershy flew over the forest, no sign of Applejack anywhere.

"Do you have ny clue of where she might be?" Fluttershy asked after some time with searchining.

Suddenly they bumped into a invisible wall.

"What the?" Rainbow said as she rubbed her hoof on the wall.

"Its Applejack..." Fluttershy said, and looked at the wall.

"How do you know?"

"Who else would make a wall here? Come on, lets see if its a way inside." They flew down to the base of the wall. They saw two strage tree that formed an O. They placed a hoof there, it went through. Rainbow smiled, both of them looked inside.

The place was light, it was a sun?! The grass was green, it was just like normal Equestria. Rainbow and Fluttershy looked in disgust. "We need to tell the others" Rainbow said. They went back to the castle and said everything.
