Chapters In the room, a little girl named Fluttershy was carefully getting ready for her first day at her new school, Canterlot Academy. It was one of the top private schools in the nation, and she had been admitted thanks to a grant from the Equality for Minority Organization.
"Fluttershy, are you ready yet?" called her mother.
"Just a moment," she replied. Fluttershy made sure her pink hijab was on appropriately before placing a butterfly hairpin. Taking a moment to admire her new uniform, she gazed at the white collar shirt with a grey sweater vest bearing the school insignia, a sun with a crescent moon, and the grey skirt that dropped to her ankles.
Heading towards the family room, she saw her mother, Cloud Hoof, in the kitchen packing her lunch. Seeing Fluttershy, she turned to say, "I am so proud of you attending the best academy in the nation."
"Only because of what happened back in Detroit."
There was a moment of silence.
FLASHBACK
Fluttershy's father, Sky Chaser, was in his clinic reviewing the immunization records of the people under his care.
Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door followed by a loud shout. "Hey, fucking rag head"! It was another racist venting his anger at him for something that he didn't do.
Thrusting the door open, the man pushed Dr. Chaser hard and started ranting, "You! You are the fucking reason our city is falling apart!" The man was apparently drunk.
Sky Chaser tried to cool him down, "Sir, you clearly had too much to drink."
The man shoved him to the ground. "Shut up! My friends and I are going to show the world your true form!" A couple more men entered armed with improvised weapons. Realizing he was in serious trouble, he tried to make a run for it, but the attackers caught him and beat him.
After they knocked him out, the attackers left him lying in the lobby and started lighting the clinic on fire. An officer who was a friend of the family saw what was going on and went inside. He was able to get Sky Chaser out, but the attacker escaped, and the clinic burned to the ground. The officer took Sky Chaser to a local hospital and called the family. Both Fluttershy and Ocean Hoof arrived to see that Sky Chaser was alive, but was really damaged.
"The assailants beat him so extensively that your husband has some serious brain injuries, and his nervous system is also damaged," stated the nurse.
"Please tell me he will be alright," cried, Cloud Hoof.
The nurse paused for a moment. "He will live, but I would highly recommend intensive physical therapy before he attempts to perform everyday work on his own."
When Fluttershy heard this, she excused herself. Moving to an isolated corner, she began to tear up.
A man put his hand on her shoulder making her jump a bit.
"It's ok; it's me Silver Stream." He was the officer that saved Fluttershy's father.
"Oh, apologies I'm bothering you. I'll just go." As she tried to leave Silver Stream stopped her.
"It's fine. Contrary to popular belief it's healthy to cry and to talk to someone about problems." Silver Stream offered Fluttershy a seat and waited for her to speak.
"My parents came to the United States when I was an infant. Since our home nation, Syria was slowly falling apart, they wanted to raise me somewhere safer and free, but for much of my life, most people gave our family more trouble than we thought. Now after what my dad just went through it makes me believe that being a Muslim is a death sentence."
Silver Stream took a moment to contemplate the thoughts she had expressed and then responded. "While I might not be a follower of Islam, I can say without a doubt your choice of faith is not something to fear. Yes, some people are going to knock you down, but I can tell you that is the easiest part. The real challenge is getting up and holding on to your faith. Your faith is a part of you." What he said made Fluttershy smile a bit, and she gave him a hug.
Silver Stream comforted her until Cloud Hoof came. "Thank you for saving my husband."
Silver Stream stood up. "Of course what those drunken fools did was not right in any way, shape, or form."
Cloud Hoof shook her head. "The only question will be where my husband will be able to get the care he needs. Most of Detroit's hospitals have closed, and the ones that remain open have stopped providing physical therapy because of the budget cuts.”
"Don't worry. I have an old friend that works at the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and she can help. Unfortunately, you're going to have to move, but knowing the state of the city, it is the best option."
Both Cloud Hoof and Fluttershy were shocked. "I don't know what to say. Are you sure?” Cloud Hoof asked.
"Indeed, Peoria has the best medical care. Canterlot Academy is also located there so your daughter will be able to receive the best education.”
TODAY
"What happened was tragic. There is no denying that is why we moved here, but your father is getting the best care and is working as a professor at the medical school training new nurses."
Fluttershy took a deep breath and said, "I know. Sorry for bringing the matter up."
"It's alright, my child. Here is your lunch and do well in school."
"Okay, I'll try." True to her name Fluttershy was shy so she never really liked leaving the comfort of home, and she was frightened of being discriminated against. Being a Muslim, she often felt that most people treated her like she was less than nothing. She never understood why people hated her because of her faith; it was a part of her, and she considered it was what made her unique.

At an abandoned factory, members of the street crew, Shadow Bolts, were each showing off their skateboard skills. The team could be recognized by their purple and gold trimmed jackets and the skull and crossbones ring on their left index fingers.
At the makeshift half-pipe, one skater by the name Rainbowdash was bragging and gloating to the leader and founder, Decent. Decent taunted in return, "There is no way you can pull off that trick."
Rainbowdash smirked. "Sure I can, and I can do it blindfolded."
Decent thought for a moment. "If not you have to wear only pink for a year, and, yes, you have to dye your hair."
"Agreed!" Decent and Rainbow shook hands on it.
Two other crew members named Gilda and Firefly walked up. "You seriously betting against the boss again," Firefly wondered.
"Yes, and like the other 36 times, I will win! Besides, I will get the respect I deserve."
"Can you just get on with it! This talking is annoying me to death," Gilda said in a bored tone. Rainbow got into position and prepared to perform an impossible move.
FLASHBACK
Two female Shadow Bolt members, Gilda, who had a short eye hairstyle along with Blackhawk Native American accessories and Firefly, who had blue hair with pink trim, were walking to the old water filter plant. It was their own personal skate park where they could have fun and experiment with new tricks. When they got there, they saw a rainbow colored hair girl already skating. "Hey what is that rainbow haired loser doing here?" Gilda growled.
Firefly just hushed her and watched the rainbow girl.
She held a nose grip for thirty seconds then went down the ramp jumping up for a 180 only to grind, going down the ramp halfway to return doing a nosegrind, doing a 360 flip ending back to the nose grip. It was flawless!
Both Firefly and Gilda were shocked at what should have been impossible. "I know I am awesome. There is no need to sound so surprised." The rainbow girl came up to them "Name’s Rainbowdash." She shook hands with first one then the other.
"Firefly and this is Gilda."
Gilda shrugged, "Eh I've seen better."
Firefly just elbowed her and then said, "What you did was awesome! In fact, our crew could use a skater like you". Rainbow agreed.
TODAY
Performing the same trick that she did back then she caused the whole crew to go speechless. Decent cleared his throat and gathered his thoughts. "Not bad, for a dyke."
Rainbowdash just rolled her eyes.
After a few hours, the crew started to disperse. Before leaving, Rainbow caught Firefly’s attention. "I believe you owe me something, for being 100% awesome."
Firefly rolled her eyes, "Okay, okay, I'll honor the bet." Firefly kissed Rainbow Dash on the lips. It was no secret Rainbow Dash was a lesbian and would proudly say so.
After the kiss, Rainbow checked her watch and then freaked. "Oh shit, sorry I have to go."
"Wait! Where?" Wondering what the hurry was, Firefly tried to stop her, but she was gone in a flash.
Rainbow Dash arrived at a local corner store. "Hey, Matilda, can I use the restroom? I need to change quickly."
The old woman smiled. "Of course, you don't need to ask." She gave Rainbow Dash the key to the bathroom.
Rainbow went into the restroom changing into a Canterlot Academy uniform, white collared shirt sleeves rolled up to her elbow with a grey sweater vest that had the school logo on it. She tucked it into grey, khaki pants held up by a red leather belt. The belt buckle had a logo that Rainbow felt represented her, a cloud with a rainbow lightning bolt. Rainbow looked into the mirror hating the fact that she had to hide it. Thanks to a sports scholarship from the head coach Soren, she went to the top private school in the nation. The Shadow Bolts don't accept 'eggheads' from the academy.
Decent apparently had gone there but dropped out. “Bunch of eggheads that prefer to please rich elitist snobs,” he said, but Rainbow didn't have that point of view. To her, Soren was someone who saw something special in her, a gay street kid just wanting to prove herself and to show that she was the best.

A/N: no firefly x rainbow dash ship here it is just rainbows personality to act romantic even with close friends
"Hmmmm" Rarity was reviewing her newest ensemble for the winter wrap up celebration just six months from now. "No, no, no, this is not right. Lombard Can you fetch me some diamonds, they will look better for the color then pearls."
"Of course madam, I will remind as well the limo will be at the front in fifteen minutes to take you to school."
"Oh goodness it's that time already, never mind forget the diamonds I will deal with them later just make sure Sweetiebell is ready. Also is Mum and Father around."
"No madam they left for Moscow, Business reasons with the president" The butler just walked off to wake the younger madam.
"Huh, of course, they deal with company matters over the family." Rarity was upset, It has always been like this. Life as an heiress to a multi-billion dollar company and her parents are never around, and only servants were at the manor.
FLASHBACK
"Presenting the young heiress to Amethyst Co., Rarity Amethyst" announced Lombard to the crowd of wealthy elites from all corners of the globe. All where here to "celebrate Rarities coming of age" in truth its all posture to make deals with her family and outdo any possible rivals at this party. She walked down the long set of stairs, left foot first and hands clasped together up to her waist, smiling.
When she was on the gala floor some already giving her gestures of goodwill and complimented her dress. Rarity wore a black strapless dress, skirt going all the way down to her feet with the left side opened, only a little makeup to have the light reflect off of her.
"I must say Rarity; you always make the finest wares for these celebrations, I should fire my families dressmaker and hire you." Said complimented Mrs.Rich
"That is a gracious offer Susan, but I can not accept such a thing; otherwise the poor might revolt." Rarity just rubbed off the statement (I'm going to put soup in my mouth for saying such a thing) rarity didn't enjoy the silver spoon talking but had to use it for the sake of appearances.
"Oh you make a good point, the lower class should be kept the leftovers, and your price would be too much for anyone to pay for." Susan Rich joked.
(Soup for my ears as well, why can't any of these talks not be about wealth) "If you excuse me, I should tend to the other guests" Rarity just moved on to other folks, another moment with Susan Rich and she might lose her mind. Talking the rest of the guests was more or less the same, brag about wealth, work together for some business reason, and what would she be doing when she inherited her families company. (I see why adults drink alcohol now, how can anyone deal with this kind of language.)
"Is everything alright Madame" Lombard was the one to get her attention.
"To be honest Lombard, no Mum and Father had this party made for me, and yet the whole thing is just business talk, and they are in Seattle for something else not related." Rarity sulked.
Lombard looked around seeing none of the guests were paying attention he whispered into Rarity's ear "no one will notice you entering the servant's hall to see Sweety Belle, I will have the Chief prepare tea and biscuits for you two."
Rarity was shocked for a moment then quickly gathered her bearings "Thank you Lombard tea and biscuits with my younger sister will sound lovely" and she left the servant's hall.
"La, la, do, la" Sweetie Belle was singing to her self while drawing a picture.
Rarity opened the door, "Hello Sweetie what is it you have there?"
Sweetie Belle jumped up excited to see her big sis "Rarity, it is a picture of me with a robotic pony dancing on a rainbow."
Rarity just smiled, though some bit of jealousy of her little sister as she didn't have to deal with the whole heiress life. "That's interesting darling, say why don't we hang out together for the rest of the night."
"Only if tea is involved" Sweetie bell demanded
Right on cue a cart of tea and biscuits came in "for the young madame's" Lombard said.
Rarity poured her and sweetie a cup and just sat on the floor talking about sisterly things.
TODAY
Rarity walked into her personal dressing room, " a new day of school best where something impressionable."
She put on her white collar shirt with a grey sweater vest bearing the school insignia, a sun with a crescent moon, grey Kaki pants with a purple leather belt, and a diamond-studded collar around her neck. "Not the most fashionable look but hard to pull it off with the uniform code barely allows room for creativity."
Rarity went outside the mansion where Sweetie Belle was waiting for her, Sweetie wore the same uniform the only difference was she had a grey skirt.
"Wow Rarity, you look....normal" Sweetie was disappointed, as Rarity would always go out of the way to look good.
Rarity patted Sweetie's head "It is the school uniform, I might talk with the headmaster of changing such a requirement so we can wear something better."
The limo arrived, and both girls hopped in heading for school

Winter wrap up is celebrated in the end of Febuary, also fun detail a certian man whos name rymes with Rump was at the party
BEEEP, BEEP, BEEP! The alarm clock screeched in frustration as it was left to ring. Twilight moaned and hesitated to turn it off knowing that she needed to get up and that she wouldn’t if she turned it off. She turned it off anyway and feel back asleep at her desk.
Spike walked into the room jumping onto Twilight's lap. "Bark Bark” (come on Twi! You'll be late for school.) Spike tried to wake his owner. He even started whining.
"Ugh, what time is it, Spike?" Twilight looked at her alarm clock and then jumped. "Oh no!" She looked out the window and saw the bus wasn’t there yet
"Still have time, let's hope The Kings don't show up."
She quickly packed the speech she was writing for school along with a letter for her dad, "don't want my welcome to go wrong, or dad to feel like I forgotten him."
Her father was in jail for life, drugs were found on him, this caused so much depression with the Sparkle family that Twilight mom drank herself to death. Now Twilight lives with her aunt Starlight glimmer who is not around much thanks to work.
"Ok let's get my uniform on and head out!" Twilight started to change into a white collared shirt with a blue tie, and a grey sweater vest that had the school logo, a sun with a crescent moon, The skirt was the same color as the vest and went past the knees. She was also wearing her purple headband that had two pink and purple stripe on the left. This was her unique headband because it reminded her of happier days.
As she was rushing out, she saw a wedding photo of her mother and father; Oh, how happy and carefree they looked. Why couldn’t it be like that again? She turned her head away and rushed out of the door.
FLASHBACK
Twilight was sitting on her family porch, reading a book about Socrates. Suddenly she looked up to see her father. "Mom, Daddy's home!" she shouted as she ran up to him. Her eyes shone with child-filled happiness. Nightlight Sparkle bent down to hug his little Einstein, “How’s my little girl?” He picked her up. Daisy Sparkle could be seen at the doorway in an apron waiting for them. She smiled "Hello, Dear. How was work?"
Nightlight put Twilight down, looking sad for a moment he handed her a pink slip. "The company thought it best to 'restructure the factory' so...", he frustrated ruffled up his hair.
"You were fired…,” Daisy whispered hoping that Twilight wouldn’t hear, but the little girl stopped smiling. She sighed. As she was thinking about what to do. Her husband changed the subject. "Guess who has the chance to take the Honors Tests into Canterlot Academy!" Both Twilight and Daisy both couldn’t believe it. Twilight had wanted to go there! It was the best school in the nation (and said to have the most extensive collection of books).
"You mean I can go to Canterlot," it still hadn’t sunk in just yet. But as it did, Twilight had mixed feelings. How could that even matter right now when her father didn’t have a job, but she didn’t let her worry show on her face. Nightlight rubbed Twilight's hair.
"You have to pass the entrance exam first...with 100% preferably!", he chuckled, quite confident that she would. “Now, how about we celebrate this the right way, with cookies.” He winked at Twilight who jumped up and down. Suddenly, a police car drove into the driveway. Nightlight Sparkle wanted to ask what they were here for, but they already started calling for him to go with them He calmly complied, holding his hands up. Daisy grabbed Twilight close to her.
WHAM! The officer took out her nightstick and beat Nightlight to the ground. He bit his lip to keep from making a sound. He didn’t want to provoke them further or scare Twilight. He looked at Twilight, trying to pretend it didn’t hurt. Twilight screamed and wanted to run up to her father, but her mother held her back for she knew what would happen if they interfered.
Nightlight Sparkle had gone to jail without there being any evidence that he had committed the crime. He didn’t care because he knew that his family would at least believe in him. But after going home from seven months in prison, Daisy had developed a drinking problem; their finances had slipped, and she had to sell the house.
TODAY
Twilight eyes glittered with tears for a moment, but then she regained her composure. "See you spike, you be a good dog and keep intruders out of the house," Twilight said as she walked out. "Bark Bark" (Of course, I’ll guard this door with my life!).
Twilight stood at her bus stop which was just across the street from her house. She sighed in frustration as she noticed her familiar harassers approaching.
"Oh look, it’s Sparkle girl. Attending a fancy school instead of the one that’s just down the street. This know-it-all thinks she’s better than that or something. You wish!" Snips keeled over.
"Hehehehehe!" Snails came uncomfortably close to twilight. He grabbed her by the jaw, and she glared. She slapped his hand away.
"How about you two losers leave me alone!" She yelled! A girl came into view.
Twilight turned and saw it was Candace, Queen of the Kings gang.
"Oh come on! Why do you always defend ‘little miss academy’!?", one of the harassers grumbled.
"You heard what I said Taurus, or do you want Terik to remind you how things roll with the Kings," Candace said sternly ready to teach the boys lesson if need be. Her eyebrow was raised prepared to hear a response and take action quickly. The men stepped back and left, not wanting to anger the gang leader’s favorite lieutenant. Twilight gave a sigh of relief. She was safe for now.
"Thanks, Candace. I wish the bus would get here already!”
Cadence smile and patted Twilight on the back "No problem Lil’ sis. Hey, how about I stay with you till the bus arrives.” Twilight nodded modestly, "I would love that, please." Both stood at the bus stop in silence till the bus came. Twilight boarded it, and wave to Candace goodbye.

Man I think i gave twilight the darkest back story..... (No wait, ome has both parents dead) but still this is dark
"Zzzzz, Nighhh, Zzzzzz" Pinkie was snoring like a horse, quite literally and with a strange enthusiasm as if she was pretending to be asleep. Her pet alligator, Gummy, walked up, opening his mouth wide and the ear-shattering sound of an alarm clock came out of it.
"MORNIN’ GUMMY! O-M-G! GASP! IT'S-A NEW SCHOOL YEAR WHICH MEANS NEW FRIENDS AND A FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL PARTY!" She continued on, speaking her words so quickly that they could not be understood and bouncing around with a level of energy no human could contain. Gummy stared blankly until he gave up, walking off to the kitchen.
"OH! Good idea Gummy, can't have fun on an empty stomach! Also, Maud might want to see me before she goes." She just dashed like a roadrunner to the kitchen, leaving gummy behind.
"GOOD MORNING MAUD,” she emphasized the way she said the word good as if nothing could possibly make the morning a bad one.
“OH TODAY IS GOING TO BE GREAT, NEW SCHOOL YEAR, I HAVE A PARTY TO PLAN, I WILL SEE NEW FRIENDS, AND QWHUDAWHFHERHDVBJEBRG...WHICH WILL BE GREAT...OH AND..."
Maud put her hand over Pinkie's mouth and said in a dull tone "You’re not wearing any clothes and you haven’t had breakfast. Are you planning to be late?
Pinkie looked at herself and saw she was just in her pink undies "Opps! Be right back!" She sped off and maybe this is an exaggeration, but in about two seconds later, she was in the same spot and dressed in her school uniform.
Pinkie wore a white short-sleeved collared shirt which fit perfectly. Over it was a grey sweater vest which cutely complimented her body type. It had the school symbol over it which was the sun with a crescent moon behind it. The grey skirt went conservatively toward past the knees, but almost as if to negotiate the length, it had cute ruffles going around it. Pinkie wasn’t the type to go with the dull grey. She also had balloon shaped earrings with confetti in her long curly hair. There was also cute button pinned expressing her interests on her sweater vest, mostly with a theme of pink and her shoes were pink and sparkly, possibly bejeweled by her.
"Ahem! As I was saying..." Almost as if it was some kind of tv show, the reader’s focus shifted back toward Pinkie as a camera would and not her clothes, especially not those distractingly sparkling pink shoes. Pinkie breathed in, preparing to continue her monologue when Maud stopped her there "Should eat something and hurry to school if you want your plans to happen." With a quick glance at the clock, it was back to full speed for Pinkiepie.
"Right! Sorry I will do that! Time-to-eat!", Pinkie said while she had already started eating. Maud stared at the scene for a while before sighing and reading a book that appeared out of nowhere. It had a title about rocks.
FLASHBACK
In the wheat fields of Iowa, Pinkiepie was staring up at the clear blue sky. "Huhhhh" She was bored out of her mind, for her whole life she lived an Amish lifestyle as did the rest of her family. Well except her older sister, Maud who left to study rocks and that caused a whole schism with her family. Pinkie however missed Maud and wished she had gone with her, Anything would be better than life on a wheat farm and tending horses.
Marble, who was Pinkie’s twin approached Pinkie. With the rustling of the grass, Pinkie knew to turn to Marble who couldn’t speak but could still be understood by Pinkie. In this case, though, Pinkie didn’t know why Marble had come for her.
"Ma and Pa are looking for me to finish my chores no doubt." Pinkie sighed. Her words were a huge statement with no sense of question in them. Marble just nodded to her.
Pinkie dragged herself up dusting off her grey dress, "You know Marble, what I think life here is like." She took a deep breath and shouted at the top of her lungs so the whole world could hear "LIFE HERE IS JUST BORING!" after that she just fell back down staring at the sky, almost wanting to cry. "I just wish I could be with Maud. Maybe she is having a whole lot more fun, enjoying parties every day, and care for a pet gator like what I would do." Marble just sat down and gave her sister a hug. Pinke comforted her.
"Oh, I know you would miss me. After all, you are the greatest little sister in the world. Well, you’re my only little sister, but still, you are the greatest" Pinkie started to pet Marble on the head, and as she did, she stared blankly at her surrounding, too familiar and too bored of it. Marble then put a piece of paper into Pinkie's lap. Pinkie looked at it and saw it was a letter from Maud saying that she has got a room for her AND Marble to live with her. "Wait how did you get Maud to take you and me, and I thought you liked living here?" Marble shook her head and gave her a sad looking stare. Almost as if to say that she would be happy going anywhere if it made Pinkie happy too.
Pinkie looked back, she stood up and proclaimed with great vigor, "Then you and I, Marble, shall join our sister! If this makes us outcasts to our family and community then so be it! There really is more to this world, isn’t there. It’s what you hear about in the storybooks. It’s why we are leaving too!" Marble just clapped seeing her sister glad. Pinke then looked at her little sister
TODAY
"And THEN I had to kill (suspenseful pause) The Griiiiim Reaper with King Arthur’s legendary sword, returning Marble’s soul back to her body!"
"I know the whole thing. Honestly! You know you could have sent a letter so I could have picked you up" Maud sighed. It was about her thousandth times hearing that story already.
"Yes I know, but I always like talking about it since it was the first thing I ever did off the farm! Oh! Hey, Marble didn't see you there?" Marble just woke up in her school uniform, same as Pinkie’s minus accessories.
"Well, seeing as you two are up, best hurry to school." Maud spoke to her sisters.
"True, let's go Marble don't want to miss out on making new friends! Who knows, maybe you’ll find a special someone" Pinkie teased and even added a wink at the end. Marble tried to hide her blushing from the statement.
Both sisters went outside hoping into the bus which arrived at the perfect time. They took their seat next to a particular dark-skinned girl who had long dark blue hair and a hairband with a similar color to her hair, except for two stripes on it which were purple and pink. As Pinkie was walking toward her, she noticed that she was wearing purple and dark purple striped socks. Hmmm, maybe stripes was a thing with her. "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie, and this is Marble. She is younger by five minutes and twenty-three point eighty-five seconds. I see we are going to the same school so I was wondering if we can be friends. Oh AND I should invite you to this BIIIIIIG party I’m having!" she went on like that for half an hour. The dark haired girl let her go on; she wasn’t used to conversing as much and didn’t know when she could speak with Pinkie going on like that.
Finally, there was a silence. Almost in an uncertain way, she said, “Umm, my name is Twilight Sparkle.” Pinkie’s eyes lit up, and she was about to start talking when the bus creaked to a stop and let out a puff sound.

"Cock a doodle doo!" The rooster crowed as the sun rose over the hilltop.
"YAWN" Apple Jack stretched and got out of bed, another hard day working on the farm. She took a quick shower and tossed on her work clothes, an orange plaid shirt with long blue jeans. Her blonde hair was braided and held by an apple shaped pin. She also had on a pair of cowboy boots and hat. She stepped out of her room, seeing Granny Smith sleeping on the couch with the TV on. Apple Jack turned the TV off which startled Granny. "Who turned the Telly off! My favorite show was going!"
"The show ended a while Granny, I told you to stop watching those late night operas. You know how expensive electricity is." Applejack scolded as she headed outside.
Big Mac was chopping logs for the winter. Knowing how early it was predicted to come, Apple Jack thought it best to have double the usual stock.
"Hey Big Mac, you have seen Apple Bloom? She wasn't in her room."
"Yep." Big Mac pointed at the old family tree house.
"Figures she would go there. Well, I best finish my morning chores before school, Make sure Granny stays off the TV and if you can, check the barn. I think I saw a loose nail last night."
"Yep," Big Mac responded before chopping more wood.
Apple Jack went to the tree house. Climbing up the ladder, she saw her little sister inside staring out the window. "There you are, Apple Bloom! You okay? Normally you sleep like a bug at this time."
"Ya, I'm fine. Just thinking about…you know, what today is,” Apple Bloom said, looking at the barn across the field.
Apple Jack sat next to Apple Bloom, looking at the same barn "I know what you mean sugar cube; I miss them too."
FLASHBACK
A storm rolled in, causing vast flashes of thunder and lighting. Orange Meringue Pie grasped her chest, "My goodness, I hope the barn animals are okay." Sweet Apple just laughed at his wife’s worries "It’s no concern to me. Me and Big Mac made sure it was secure before the storm rolled in, isn't that right kiddo."
"Yep," Big Mac responded while boarding up the windows.
"I just always get anxious. You know how much I hate these storms.” Orange had a big fear of Storms, thankfully she had a family to comfort her.
"THE PIGS ARE LOOSE" Granny screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Easy Ma, what's wrong!? Couldn't hear you over the storm." Sweet Apple calmed her down
"It's the pigs! The storm hit their pen, now they’re runnin’ loose. We gotta do something."
Sweet Apple grabbed his coat. "I'll deal with this mess. The rest of you stay here."
His wife grabbed his arm "No, hun! It's much too dangerous! Please don't go! Wait until the storm calms down." Soon a baby's crying was heard, and Apple Jack came down with her baby sister. "I can't get Apple Bloom to calm down. The storm is too noisy for her to sleep."
Orange’s eyes cried for a moment then went to Apple Bloom. It had been an hour since Sweet Apple walked out to take care of the pigs.
"Has your Pa returned yet?" Orange asked her son, Big Mac.
"Nope" was his only response.
Feeling worried something might have happened, Orange Meringue Pie grabbed her jacket. "Both of your sisters are asleep with Granny watching over them. I should be gone only for a few minutes with your Pa." And just like that, she walked out the door into the storm, never to be seen again.
TODAY
"And in the end, what they said was a lie," Apple Bloom said sadly.
"Now you hold your tongue there little missy. They didn't lie, it was all an unexpected matter." Apple Jack scolded her younger sister. "Now look here, it's not healthy to gloom over the past. Why Pa would be all over you like a bull if he saw you acting this way. For his sake, and Ma, why don't you go get changed into school clothes" Apple Jack was going to be brutally honest on the matter at hand.
"Ok, I'll go do that." Apple Bloom was feeling a little better, but still, the whole loss of her parents left a big hole in her heart. With that taken care of Apple Jack went about doing her morning chores on the farm. As soon as that was all done, she returned to her room to change into better clothes for school.
Applejack wore a white collared shirt with a bolo tie with a golden apple and grey sweater vest with the school logo on it, a sun with a crescent moon. She wore grey school pants, held up by a red belt with an apple buckle and her cowboy hat and boots.
"Hey sis you ready yet? We should get going." Apple Bloom Shouted.
"Of course hold your horses" Apple Bloom grabbed the keys to the family truck and headed out to school.
