Bringing Harmony To The Chaos

Before I begin, I would like to say thanks to TheSonicWarrior for making me see how odd the last part of chapter 2 seems, but fear not, it will be explained now!

Chapter 3

Reasons

After breaking the embrace Applejack calmly says, "So you I remember you askin' what I was doin' here when you helped me out. I think it's about time I told you" As you prepare to hear the story you've seen in fanfics about a spell going wrong or something like that, she begins, "Celestia was sleepin' one day, and had a dream, and in it she saw your world, or at least she thinks she did." The uncertainty threw you off there, but you continue to pay close attention anyways, "She told us that this world was deep in chaos, worse than what we'd seen when Discord came back. So she decided that we could come here and try to use the elements to make things right." She paused, looking quite a bit worried, but still managed to continue, "I volunteered to go through first, but I heard Twilight call out to Celestia and then things went black, and I woke up to you helping me." She was obviously shaken up, possibly thinking that she might never go home again, or afraid that something terrible happened to Celestia.

You decide to comfort her with a tight hug, seeing that she was extremely worried and might break into tears at any moment. "Thanks sugarcube" she says quietly as she embraces the hug. Then you decide to break the hard truth to her...

"I'm sorry to say, but this world can't be saved or even helped"

"What? Why would you say something so sad?" She's obviously surprised as she breaks the hug and looks at you in despair.

"Where to start," you start as you stand up, knowing you're going to get animated while explaining, "War, murder, crime, greed, and vanity. The truth is that's only the surface. Wars start because of people wanted something another country has, and lately that's been oil, causing death around the world, not only that but some country's leaders are turning their soldiers against their people. The soldiers are killing the people and children that they're supposed to protect." You pause long enough to see fear on Applejack's face. "People murder others for no reason other than, 'They just didn't like him', or they kill their own family because they snapped under the pressure of society. People steal just because they wanted something someone else had, or they had some weird belief that person didn't earn it. People start companies just for the sole reason to make money, they pay people over seas next to nothing just so that they can live in a big house and drink martinis on their million dollar yacht, and so they can have the best car, the best clothes, and the best phone. A phone for the love of god!"

Realizing that you ended up yelling about half of that you turn to see how Applejack is fairing after hearing that, and with complete despair you decide to add one more thing, "Hell, you can't even trust the people you meet, everyone wants something, and to some of them, your friendship, sometimes even your love, is just a means to an end. They don't even care if they hurt you in the process." You decide to sit down, realizing the hate that's running through you is causing you to shake, and then you quietly say...

"This world should be destroyed"

"DON'T SAY THAT!"

Applejack's sudden outburst caused you to jump. With tears streaming steadily down her face she manages to say, "The world may be full a' greed and other horrible things I can't begin to describe, but what about the good in the world? How could you not think about that!"

"There is no good in this world, and if there is it sure as hell doesn't last very long!"

"What about this, what about us? ISN'T THIS GOOD?!"

"But what happens when you have to leave, huh?! I can't just up and leave with you, and I sure as hell know you can't give up your family and friends just for me!"

"I WOULD GIVE ALL THAT UP FOR YOU!"

Stunned, you stare with you mouth open, now realizing you had begun to cry thanks to the tears entering your mouth. You don't have any idea what to say now. Instead you just sit back down and cover your face with your hands, now realizing what you just did, and what she just said to you. "Why?" you ask through the tears, "Why would you give up everything for me, I'm just a simple guy, I get average grades in school, can't do physical labour for shit, and I'm obviously a goddamn pessimist who pretends to be an optimist! So why, your life is so damn good, why would you give it all up for a moron like me?" With that she hugs you.

"Because, I love you."

"What is there to love? I'm useless, I wouldn't last a day on your farm, let alone be able to make friends easily."

"I love you because you're the first person who has ever gone out of their way, going to so far as to put their life in danger, for me, let alone say they like me more than my friends."

"But I'm not the only one that likes you over them, people on the internet argue about it all the time, some people even write about you falling in love with either them, or someone from Ponyville. I'm sure they're far more..."

You couldn't finish because she gave you a deep passionate kiss, despite her tears, it felt pretty good. "Sugar, I don't care, you're a sweet guy, and even though there may be some guy out there that likes me that is the hottest guy on the planet, I would still pick you. I know it sounds stupid, but I love the fact that you aren't afraid to speak the truth, and that you would go so far for some random girl you found in the road."

"I helped because I felt it was necessary, I thought that something really bad would happen if I left you there, that's all"

"That's why I love you. Despite you lookin' down on this world, you still wanted to try to make someone else's better. I can already guess that to your friends, you're probably important seeing how kind you are underneath all the pessimism."

Hearing that you nearly break down again, but something stops you. It was love, not the love you had for her, but the love she had for you. You could feel it, almost as though it was next to you trying to lift you up, telling you all the bad stuff didn't matter, as long as you were with her things would be alright. Even though this whole relationship just started out of the blue, and you have no idea how it got so strong so fast, you start to enjoy it. You may have only just officially met her, but now you know you don't just love her for how she acts in the show, you love her for who she really is, and you know she loves you for the same reason.

"It feels like all the evil in the world is gone right now" you say while grinning.

"That's what Celestia was sending us here for, so we could help as many people as we could."

Suddenly there was a blinding light in the middle of your room. After it went away there were 5 girls, and even a blind man could guess they were the rest of the mane 6 just by how they got there. Then you noticed they were naked, probably because that's how ponies usually are. You manage to turn around before the shock wore off for Applejack.

"Hey Applejack!" the 5 of them said at the same time, how they knew it was her, you had no clue.

"Girls," said Applejack menacingly...

"PUT SOME GADDARN CLOTHES ON!"

Hopefully now people will see why the romance between Applejack and the protagonist started so early ;3
