the fritter thief

Granny smith walked into the kitchen, she had been baking apple treats all day and now she had come to the fritters. Lil Mac and Cider (papa Apple) was out in the field working, Mac bearly big enough to kick the trees so the apples would fall. Apple juice (mama Apple) and Applejack was in the living room. Apple juice was teaching Applejack how to read, she thought Applejack should learn to read before she become a older sister.

The mare in the Kitchen smelled the air, the good smell of apple bake goods allways made them hungry. Especially Applejack with the hunger of a full grown stallion, lil Mac wasn't as greedy as AJ but he had hunger as well. Sometimes if the kids came first to dinner half of it would be gone before anypony else got to the room and they would always blame each other.

Granny opened the oven and took out a large applepie. She placed the pie by the open window, she smiled as she placed the tray with the undone fritters on in the oven.

''there, almost done for the day'' She smiled. but she knew that she had to make more fritters, every time she made fritters someone stole a lot of them, leaving only one each for the rest. It had been like that for a while now, and Granny knew she had to find out who it was.

''Mhmm... mother that smells good...'' Apple juice said as she came into the room. She was an red earth pony with blond and green mane, her mane was tied back to a braid tied togeter by a pink bow and her cutie mark was an apple with an green and white pattern around it, and her eyes was amber colored. Applejack walking between her legs, Juice tried not to step on her daughter, she was really big for only being six years old. If she wanted and stood on two legs she could reach on to the table and grab whatever that was close enough to the edge.

''Yeah Granny, can ah help ya next time?'' Applejack asked jumping around and smiling at Granny.

''Course ya can, but... then ya need to stop eating all the applepieces, it takes time cutting them'' Granny smiled at little Applejack.

''Ah-ah don't do that! it's Mac ah tell ya!'' Applejack said, trying to blame it on Mac. She would always try to blame it on Mac, mostly beacause she was sceard of the trouble she might get to.

''Oh Yeah? but he haven't baked with me in weeks, and ya helped me some weeks ago...'' Granny smiled, she leaned down faceing Applejack. ''And ah caugh ya one time'' she smiled.

Applejack stood in silense. She opened her mouth to speak but find nothing to say. She had been caught, and now she had to stop eating the baking appled. ''Uhh... ah... am ah in trouble?'' she asked shy, hiding behind her mane and her mothers legs.

''Nah... it's not something big and...'' She smiled ''Who's gonna help me bake next week if ah don't forgive ya?'' That made Applejack smile, she jumped out from between Juice's legs and hugged Granny.

''Thanks Granny, ah won't do it again.'' She smiled.

''Hehe... come on honey, let's head out to Mac and Cider, maybe they need our help.'' Juice smiled, without a word said, Applejack was gone. Juice and Granny looked out in the hallway, Applejack stood by the door trying to Reach for the knob.

''Come on...'' She said trying to lift herself up but bearly reaching for. Juice looked at Granny for a second before they both began to giggle. Juice walked forward to Applejack. she lowerd her head and lifted Applejack up, Applejack didn't notice her mother lifing her, she smiled when she finally reached it. ''Yes!'' she smiled as she turned it. She looked back to smile to her mother, but noticed she had been lifted up. ''Ah... almost had it ma!''

''Hehe... sorry hun.'' She giggled, Applejack jumped off her head and began to walk out. Juice shook her head with a smile, and began to follow Applejack.

Granny headed back to the kitched, she began to bake more fritters, just in case the thief would hit tonight or later.

Applejack and Apple juice walked out in the Field, to Applejack she was in a little hurry, her mother was too slow.

''Come on ma!'' she called back.

''Hold on honey, ah'm commin, it aint no reason to hurry up.'' She called back. Beeing pregnant, wasn't easy and having a daughter that was always in a hurry.

A loud *thump* was heard not far away, it seem like it send new energy into Applejack's body.

Finally Applejack and Apple juice find the way to the men of the Family.

''Papa!'' Applejack called and began to run toward him.

Cider turned to see his daughter and wife comming toward them, he smiled. ''Hey sugercube, how a doing?'' he asked. he was a tall and strong Stallion. he was a orange Stallion With brown mane, his mane was long so he had to tie it back in a little ponytale. his good old hat on top of his head, and his cutie mark was a mug of cider. Applejack ran up to him wanting to hug him, she closed her eyes With happiness. but insted of hugging, she crashed into his legs.

''Ma!'' Mac yelled with happiness, he ran up to her and hugged her. Mac had always been a momma's boy, and Applejack was a papa's boy.

''So hun? what are ya doing out here?'' Cider asked, lifing Applejack up in his hooves.

''We just wanted to see ya two, is that so bad?'' she asked, walking forward and kissed Cider.

''Eeww...'' both Applejack and Mac said, sticking their hoof to their mouth and sticking out their toung.

Both Cider and Juice began to laugh. ''yer not going to complan when ya get their own spesial somepony.'' Juice said smiling.

''Let's head back to the house'' Cider said, lifing Applejack up to his head. Applejack loved her father's hat so she lifted it and craled under it. Cider and Mac hitched themself to their cart and pulled the Apples they had been collecting. Mac had a smaller cart, so had less Apples. but to be so Young he was really strong.

Once the family was back in the house they were met with the warm smell of fritters and other apple goods.

''Oohh mother, that's smell so good...'' Juice called into the kitchen.

Granny looked out of the Kitchen and smiled. ''Dinner is ready by the way!'' she called. With that, both Applejack and Mac lit up and dashed into the dinning room. Cider and Juice looked at each other and dashed into the room as well, Mac and Applejack was sitting by the table looking like two angels.

The Family ate their dinner happily, it was good. Granny smith's famous apple pie.

Later that night. After the entire Family had gone to bed, at least they thought. Cider had gotten Applejack to bed and read a bedtime story for her. He did that every time she had much energy, it always calmed her down. Cider had to come in sometimes to find Applejack jumping on her bed. That's when either papa reading a bedtime story or her mom's lullaby came in.

Mac went to bed as normal, he and Cider had been working all day so he was tierd.

When the house was quiet. One little filly walked out of her bedroom. Applejack, Applejack walked out to the hallway. She had her nightstand right next to the door, so it was easy to open the door for her. Applejack snuck to the stairs, the smell of Apple fritters tingled in her nose, she was so close to her prize. She had been doing this somethimes when Granny made fritters, sometimes during the day. She walked carfully down the stairs. the stairs made small creaking noises as she walked down.

When she finally reached the floor, she smiled. One step closer to her goal. the smell of freash fritters began to tingle in her nose again. She waked into the Kitchen, the tray with the fritters stood on the bench calling her name.

She walked over to the tray and reached for it. Finally she manged to reach one, she quickly stuffed it into her mouth. The fritter was still warm, it tasted good too. It was so good she had to have more, she reached for one more.

Then the light turned on, Applejack's head spun toward the door, Granny stood there looking at her. Applejack stood there frozen, she hoping Granny wasn't seeing her, but she was.

''Applejacquline Apple, what do ya have to say for yourself?'' Granny asked, raising and eyebrow at her. Applejack paniced, she dashed out the door to the dinning room, but before she could Granny ran up to her and stopped her. ''Ah asked ya question missy!''

Applejack shrank down, her ears laid down on her head ''Ah... ah... *sob* ahm.... sorry... sorry Granny, there just so good, ah could't resist!.'' she cried. ''Ah, ah *sob* ahm... sorry.. ah won't do it again!'' She was crying hard now, tears streaming down her eyes.

Granny smiled down at Applejack, she placed her hoof on her sholder. ''Hun, ah ain't mad. Ahm just disepointed, ah knew it was a fritter thief, and ah had my suspisions.'' Granny smiled at her, she pulled her close and hugged her. ''Ah aint gonna punish ya hun, just ask next time.'' Applejack looked up at Granny.

''ya aint mad?'' She asked, Granny used her hoof and dryed the tears away from Applejack's eyes.

''No, let's get ya back to bed, just remember 'ask' next time.'' With that, Granny lifted Applejack up in her hooves, she began to wlk back to the hallway, she turned off the light to the kitchen and walked back up stairs. She lifted Applejack back to the bed, and tucked her in.

''Sleep well Applejack.'' She said, she kissed Applejack on the forehead, before turning off the light. she turned back to the door, ''Night''

''Night'' Applejack said before she closed her eyes and fell into dreamland.

Granny walked out the door and closed the door. She stood there for a moment, when.

''So ya caught our little theif?'' Came from one of he doors. Granny looked behind her, Cider stood in the door smiling. ''Ah knew she was the one''

''Why didn't ya tell?''

''Ah was on it''
