Amber and Emeraldsby djpon5ChaptersMagical MishapsTemporary solutionsSomething moreBorderline phsycotic passionMagical MishapsNine years after Sweetie Belle and Button Mash began dating, Applebloom and Scootaloo remained close friends with Sweetie. After gaining their cutie marks Applebloom began studying potion making and eventually Zecora took her under her hoof and began to teach her to brew magical remedies and potions. After being taught most of what Zecora knew Applebloom began to experiment with potions of her own creations in the farms Apple cellar. "Just a sliver of Timberwolves tail...." Applebloom mutters cutting a small piece of wood from the tail of one of the everfree forests most feared creature. She gently used a pair of tongs to carefully drop the small sliver of wood into the small cauldron she used when making intricate potions. The potion bubbled and for a brief second a green glow came from the cauldron..... Right before the entire cauldron blew up spraying the purple contents everywhere. She looked around and slowly began wiping the mess from her face. "What in Tarnation is going on down here?!" Applejack ran down the stairs and slipped in the purple goo, sliding across the floor before planting her face firmly against the wall. "Applejack!" Applebloom races to her sister and gently peeled her off the wall." Sorry I think ah might've used too much timber wolf tail....." She scratched her chin while looking at some of the purple goo on her hoof. "What in equestria were you trying to make?" Applejack asked as she tried to wipe the goo from her face but only succeded in getting her hoof stuck on her forehead. "I was trying to make something for pinkie pie." She admits while trying to grab a rag to clean out the inside of her cauldron." She asked me for something for a party coming up." "What exactly did she ask you for?" Applejack asks with her hoof still pinned to her forehead. "A potion that makes a pony feel joy." She says giving up on the now stuck rag. Applejack sighs." Applebloom I think it's great you are helping out folks....but I can't have you blowing up or burning down the apple cellar every other day! You should just take a break." She says looking around." And you can spend that break cleaning up this mess." She turns and walks back up the stairs with her hoof still stuck to her forehead. Applebloom sighs and looks around. She thinks for a minute and then perks up." Ah could make something to get rid of this goo easy!" She grabs her cauldron and takes it outside to clean it up. Two hours later and with her cauldron now completly clean, she got work. She started by adding water and bringing it to a boil. She then carefully added a gram of poison joke and stirred counter clockwise for ten seconds. As she stirred she added a small amount of salt making the cauldron puff smoke and glow purple. She smiled and laughed as she added a drop of the sap of an infant timber wolf. The potion shimmered and changed color to amber. She threw in a small blue crystal for color and finally gathered up a small amount of the goo and carefully dropped it in. The potion sparked and glowed blue. She extinguished the flame and put some in a flask. She smiled and walked to the wall she used a small dropper to take some of the potion and use a drop in the goo. It did nothing for a minute then smoked and dissapeared. She smiled and turned to walk away. Behind her she heard a loud spark and turned to find the goo was back, and expanding towards her. She tried to run up the cellar door but she found herself caught by the goo as she got to the top step. It pinned her against the door squishing against it. Applebloom knocked on the door gently and waited. After a few second applejack opened the door and sighed at the stuck Applebloom. "Let me guess......" She looked at the goo which was now blue. Applebloom blushed." Ah may have used a tiny little bit too much poison joke......" She sunk out of the goo and fell on the floor in front of applejack. She quickly stood up and shook the goo off of herself spraying it around the hall. "Darn it Applebloom!" Applejack says turning away." Just get this mess cleaned up." She walks away and leaves Applebloom to clean. Five hours later Applebloom had finished cleaning the basement. She had saved a small amount of the goo in a flask to try in other potions. She sighed and walked back down to the now clean cellar. She stared into her cauldron and shook her head. She needed that joy potion for tomorrow. She groaned and began to try again. She added all the ingredients from before, this time though she used considerably less timber wolf tail. The potion once again glowed green and changed color from purple to a bright yellow. She smiled and used a small spoon to take a dose. A warmth spread throughout her and she had an incredible feeling of joy. She laughed and scooped some up in a flask for pinkie pie. As she turned to walk away from the potion, she accidentally knocked over the vial of purple goo which had been on a shed next to the cauldron. The goo spilled into the potion and it suddenly sparked. Applebloom braved herself for whatever was going to happen, but nothing did. She opened her eyes to see the potion glowing pink and red steam pouring out of it. She carefully walked over to the cauldron and stared into the potion. It was a bright pink color and the steam coming off gave off an attractive aroma. Applebloom smiled and inhaled to fumes deeply. She suddenly had a flashback to when she was young and she realized what she had created. She jumped back and gasped." Oh no! I need to get rid of this! I know! I'll take it to Zecora! She'll know how to destroy it." She carefully covered the top of the cauldron and lifted it onto her back. Applebloom hefted it up the stairs, careful not to spill a single drop, and walked out of the front door." Applejack! I'm going to see Zecora!" She called as she walked through the door." Applebloom hurried across town as the sun began setting. As she walked with the potion a familiar voice came to applebloom's ears. "Hey Applebloom!" Spike called and he jogged to catch up to her. Around his neck was a bag that looked weighted down with books. Spike had grown taller since Applebloom was a filly. He was now about as tall as twilight and a bit taller than some other stallions in town." What's going on?" He asks smiling. "Uhh I really can't talk right now spike, I'm trying to get rid of this and it's real important that I don't get distracted." She says not looking over at the dragon. "What's in here?" He tries to lift the lid on the potion and Applebloom almost panics and drops the whole thing. "SPIKE DONT TOUCH THAT!" She yells trying and hop away before he can get a whiff. "Huh what?! Why?!" He jumps back from the cauldron. "Spike don't mess with that! I have to get this potion to Zecora!" She says steadying herself before continuing to walk past the furniture store "Why? Is she testing you or something?" He asks continuing to walk next to her. "No I made something I shouldn't have...." She says look at the small amount of pink most leaking from the cauldron. "Why?" He asks curiously and now waking backwards in front of her. " I didn't do it on purpose! I didn't know, I was just messing around with a new ingredient I came by, and it got a little bit out of control." She sighs as they exit town and start the trek through the forest. "Oh....do need any help carrying it?" He asks failing to notice the rock on the path behind him. "No spike, and don't you need to get those books back to twilight?" She asks looking up at the bag. "She isn't expecting me until later TONIGHT!" Spike trips over the rock and kicks up dirt directly into applebloom's face. She coughs and tries to clear her vision making the cauldron tipped. The entire cauldron rolls over her back and across the ground quickly spilling the potion all over the forest floor. The cauldron bounced over the rock spike tripped on and lodged itself firmly over spikes head with about half the potion still inside. "Oh no! Spike, are you okay?!" She runs to spike and tries to pull the cauldron off of his head. After failing twice she finally wrenches it off of him." Spike?" She carefully walks over to hi taps his shoulder as he was shaking some of the potion off of his head. "Applebloom." Spike looked up at her before she could stop him and he froze as she came into sight." Applebloom?" He smiles strangely and his pupils suddenly became pink and changed shape to hearts." Hehe. Hi." He waved sheepishly at her. Applebloom backed against a tree as the severity of the situation hit her like a ton of apples." What have I done?" She whispers to herself." WHAT HAVE I DONE?!" She yells into the forest. Author's Note I'll try and update more frequently this time and not take a year. Lol. Temporary solutionsApplebloom stared at spike In horror as the potions effect became stronger." Spike how much of that did you take?!" She carefully walks forward a few feet. "Huh? I don't know." He keep smiling at her with his heart shaped pupils. "We have to get you back to twilight spike." Applebloom says as she tries to get spike to stand up. He giggles hugs her as she lifts him to his feet." Stop it." She says angrily as she starts walking back to town with spike against her side. After over an hour of walking, celestia had lowered the sun and Luna had brought out the moon. Applebloom struggled to get spike to the door of Princess Twilights castle. She threw open the door and stumbled inside. She immediately let spike fall to the ground where he stayed. The interior of the castle seemed deserted though she could hear twilight speaking from the map room. "Twilight!" She called and walked towards her voice. Twilight stuck her head out of the door and looked at the teenage mare. "Applebloom? What's wrong?" She asks opening the door wide to reveal Fluttershy and applejack standing behind her. "Ah messed up twilight." She admits and nods to spike who was now walking towards her. "What do you mean? Spike what happened?" She asked before spike threw his arms around Applebloom's neck. "I love you." Spike giggled and fell limp dragging Applebloom with him. "What in tarnation do you think your spin to my sister spike?!" Applejack rushed forward and pushe spike off of her. "It's not his fault applejack, it's mine." Applebloom said looking away as twilight restrained spike, who was trying to crawl to applebloom, with a magical bubble. "What in equestria did you do to him Applebloom?!" Applejack asks as spike began to slam his shoulder against the bubble. " I didn't mean to, it's just....the potion fell and I think he drank some by mistake!" Applebloom says trying to recall what happened as it still seemed surreal to her. "What potion?! Applebloom I told you not to mess with any more potions today." Applejack says getting ready to lecture her. "I'm sorry twilight I didn't mean to make a love potion, I was just messin with some new ingredients I got..." Twilights cuts Applebloom short and stares at her sternly. "Applebloom are you saying spike drank a love potion?" She looks at spikes pupils and shakes her head." That explains this." "I know but I was trying to take it to Zecora so she could destroy it, and then spike showed up and he tripped and the potion fell on his head." She says quickly trying to explain. "We can't deal with this tonight Applebloom." Applejack says shaking her head." Zecoras probably tuckered out and twilight doesn't know a lick about potions." "Hey! That's not completly accurate applejack." Twilight says glaring at her friend. "Okay then twilight, can you fix him?" Applejack asks smiling broadly. "Well.....no.....continue." Twilight says pouting. "It's like I said, nobody is in the mood to deal with this. We'll just have to tie down spike and wait to deal with this until at least tomorrow mornin." Applejack says. "Which will give you time to figure out how exactly you made this potion so Zecora can fabricate an antidote, right Applebloom?" Twilight raises her eyebrow at the filly. "Yeah....it's the least I can do for spike...." Applebloom walks over to the bubble where spike was desperately trying to claw his way out." I'm sorry I got you into this spike, but I swear to celestia we will find a way to fix this." Applebloom smiles and places a hoof on the bubble. As she does though the bubble shimmers and breaks. Spike falls forward and lands on top of Applebloom." Gosh darnit spike!" Applebloom groans as spike hugs her. After pulling the two apart twilight drags spike to a staircase. "As much as I'd hate to do this, I'm going to have to lock spike in the dungeon. I don't want him to get out of his room tonight and Come after you Applebloom."Twilight says surrounding spike once again with a magical bubble. The two sisters follow twilight down a long winding staircase to the lower catacombs of the castle where there were cells lining the walls. They didn't exactly look nice but they at least had beds and other commodities like running water. Twilights placed spike in the cell near the staircase and locked it." He should be fine here just for the night. I suggest you go home and start working up the recipe for that love potion applebloom." Twilight says walking back up the stairs. "And once this is done we are havin a discussion about your potion makin Applebloom." Applejack says as she begins to accend the stairs with Twilight. After failing several times to recreate the potion Applebloom groans in frustration and goes to bed. She could whip up the potion in the morning. Right now she was exhausted and she couldn't think straight. She fell into an uneasy sleep where she could hear spike calling her name and blaming her for putting him under a spell......wait she could actually hear him.....as if he were in the same room.....clearly as if he were right next to her. Applebloom awoke and quickly closed her eyes as the sun was extremely harsh as it filtered through the window. "Applebloom, applebloom." Applebloom's eyes widened at the voice and she turned to the side and opened her eyes to see spike with his face an inch from hers, smiling broadly." Good morning princess." He closed the distance and pressed his lips to hers. Applebloom jumped back and screamed as Big Mac opened the door to see spike standing in front of Applebloom with a goofy smile and most noticeably, a sizable errection. Author's Note oh no! What will happen to spike since Big Mac is not aware of the situation?! Only time will tell. Oh and one moe thing....the more views,likes, and comments I get the faster I update for your reading pleasure! So yeah.....do all that stuff if you want more really quick! Something moreBig Mac froze at the sight before him before anger and confusion began to take over her snorted and charged forward, stopping short of spike. He then turned around 180 degrees and bucked him out of the two story window of applebloom's room. He landed in a pile of hay with a sickening thud. Applebloom screamed again. "Big Mac! What the hay did you do?!" She asked as she looked through her shattered window." Did you just buck spike out the window?!" She turns to him angrily. "Eyup." He said looking quite pleased with himself. "Didn't applejack tell you? Spike accidentally drank a love potion!" She starts hopping from hoof to hoof worriedly. His eyes widened." Nope." "Well let hurry up and make sure he ain't dead!" She said sprinting out of the room and down the stairs. "Eyup." Big Mac said as he followed suit. When they arrived by the pile of hay they could hear groaning and spike popped his head out. His eyes were closed and he was clutching to bump on his head. "Wow.....I'm honestly surprised he isn't dead." She pokes him and he falls back into the hay. "Eyup." Big Mac nods as applejack sprinted out of the house and over to the two. "What the hay happened?! I hear ya scream and your window was broken!" Applejack said looking around. "Why don't ya ask Big Mac." She said angrily hitting him with her hoof. "What did you do now?!" Applejack frowned. "Ah might've bucked spike outta two story window." She said nervously rubbing the back of his head. Applejack shook her head." You what?!" She looks around for spike who was still in the hay. "Come on applejack he fine." Big Mac said lifting him out of the hay." See! Fit as a fiddle." He tried to help spike stand but spike fell forward and landed on his face and groaned into the dirt. Applebloom couldn't help but giggle a little. "Applebloom, WE are going to go take spike back to twilight and then head out for zecoras hut, I expect to see you there." Applejack said as Big Mac started complaining. "Why do I gotta?!" He groaned before applejack glared at him. "Cause your the pony who kicked him out of a two story window, and your fixin it when you come home too." She says lifting spike to his feet." Got it?!" She growls. "Eyup." He says sadly and helps her carry him. Applebloom shakes her head and walks back to the house. She spends about another hour in the apple cellar before she finally successfully recreates the potion. She decided not to bring the whole cauldron. And instead she would simply ask Zecora how to destroy it. Applebloom scooped some of the pink shimmering potion into a beaker and sealed the top. She bolted her cauldron lid shut and placed it inside an apple barrel for safe keeping. Applebloom began to make her way across town toward the everfree forest. Her mind wandered back to that morning when spike kissed her. Even though it wasn't an ideal situation to have it, he first kiss wasn't that bad. She could even describe it as being comical, the way Big Mac kicked spike out of the window. She found herself giggling at the memory of spikes face. Applebloom arrived at zecoras everfree home within half an hour. She found Big Mac standing outside waiting for her to arrive. He opened the door and allowed her in. Inside were spike, who was tied to a chair and appeared to be unconcious, twilight, applejack, and Zecora. Applebloom walked to twilight and almost on queue she answered her question. "Sorry about that Applebloom, spike melted the lock off of the cell door and burned down the castle entrance." She smiled apologetically. "It's fine twilight." Applebloom shrugged and handed the beaker over to Zecora. She stared at the potion and sniffed it and after a moment of pondering she looked over at Applebloom. "Ah didn't mean to make it I was just tryin out some new ingredients I got." Applebloom said. "New ingredients are always a must, but what you've made here is a potion of lust." Zecora said as she let a drop of the potion fall into her cauldron. It simmered and hissed as the potion hit the surface. "Can you make an antidote?" Applebloom asks anxiously. "To take out of spike this greedy fire, I first must takes some of what he desires." Zecora stepped forward and yanked a single hair out of applebloom's mane. "Ouch!" She yelled as Zecora dropped the hair into the cauldron turning the potion from pink to Amber. "Now to remove spikes desire we must replace the greedy fire." She said as she rooted around her cabinets." Something repulsive to assault his senses, ah this will do......timber wolf essence." She held up a vial of thick white liquid. She uncorked the vial and let a drop fall into the cauldron turning the potion purple. Zecora scooped the potion into a bowl and walked to spike. She immediately stomped on his tail and when he opened his mouth wide to scream she casually dumped the potion down his throat. "Is that it?" Twilight asked the zebra. Zecora nodded and Twilights made the ropes dissapeared as spike stirred." Spike? Are you okay?" Twilight stood close. "Huh? What happened?" Spike asked looking around. He saw Applebloom and quickly jumped." Applebloom! What happened?! The last thing I remember is when you dropped that potion......everything else is kinda fuzzy after that." He holds his head. "I think it's best you don't remember some of it." She laughs a bit. "If you say so." He says standing up. "Is that it?" Applebloom says as spike simply walks out the door. "I guess so.....in the future Applebloom please be more careful in the future." Twilight says following after spike. As applejack leaves Applebloom stays behind to talk to Zecora." Is there any way I can destroy this potion Zecora." "tis a very simple solution you see, leave it here in the everfree." She says. "Are ya sure? It would affect the plant life or animal in any way?" Applebloom asks. "no." She said walking back to her cauldron. "Um one more question Zecora. Does the potion have to be consumed for it to have an effect on you?" Applebloom asked. "Yes, why?" She raised her eyebrow. "Just wondering." She said backing out the front door. Why was she feeling like this all of a sudden? She didn't drink the potion she only inhaled some of the vapor and even that shouldn't affect her. She felt a strange attraction toward spike, out of nowhere. She tried to shake off the feeling and started walking back towards sweet Apple acres so she could be rid of that lust potion......or maybe she would keep some.....just in case. Borderline phsycotic passionApple bloom stared down into her cauldron where the potion of lust shimmered with that pink mist hovering over the to of it. It has been around two weeks since the whole mishap with spike and he was now back to his usual, cheerful self. From what he has explained the last thing her remembered was the cauldron bouncing towards him and after that everything was blank. Apple bloom had already apologized several times over and spike was happy to forgive her. Apple bloom inhaled some of the brightly colored fumes and sighed. From what she had researched about it, the smell the potion emits is unique to what one individual finds attractive. To Apple bloom, it smelled of the sweetest apples with a strange musk she couldn't quite place. Apple blooms mind drifted back to the kiss she had shared with spike. Even if he wasn't in his right mind, it wasn't bad. In fact, she couldn't stop thinking about it, no matter how hard she tried her mind drifted back to that event. She thought at first she had been affected by the fumes of the potion but no she was unsure of everything. "Apple bloom!" Apple jack called her name from the kitchen where she and Granny Smith had been making breakfast for the past half hour." Come eat or I'll just let Big Mac eat your food." "Comin!" She called back as she put the lid back on the cauldron and hid it back inside the barrel. She couldn't let Apple Jack or anyone else find it. She trotted quickly up the stairs and stepped onto the wooden floors of the house, closing the door behind her before heading into the kitchen where the rest of her family was waiting. She sat at the table and all was quiet as they began to eat. It was around halfway through the meal that applejack looked up at big mac and poked him then motioned towards Applebloom. He sighed loudly before looking up at a staring applebloom. It wasn't visible but it was still there." So uhhhh, Appebloom, i think we need to have a chat about spike an what happened." She almost spit her food all over the table. Her head shot up and looked at him. Had they found out what she was planning to do? "Ah think it's time we talked about...uhh....the birds and the bees...." Big Macs blush could be seen through his red coat. Her eyes widened and she almost spat. "Big Mac! I'm eating!" She said through a mouthful. He coughed loudly and nudged applejack. She stared at him then sighed. "Apple bloom we really need to talk about this." She starts but she cuts her off. "Applejack I already know all about it." Applejacks eyes widened to almost the size of her dinner plate. "How in Tarnation?!" She started to yell but Apple bloom stopped her. "Applejack what do you actually think me and the crusaders talk about anymore?" She raised an eyebrow and applejack frowned and moved her food uncomfortably. "Sorry sis sometimes I ferget you're almost a mare...almost. Meanin I don't want non of that nonsense happening under this roof. Not with anyone! Got it?" She asks sternly. Apple bloom nods in agreement. Apple bloom quickly finishes her meal then stands to leave back towards the cellar." Well I'm heading down to mix some more potions." She says trying to avoid questions as she rushes past them and slams the door to the cellar as she walks down the steps. After sliding on safety goggles She pulled the Apple barrel holding the love potion to the center of the room and pulled off the lid. She dipped a dropper inside and filling it. She walked to her potions table near the corner and sighed as she placed the dropper down." Now I need to find the correct dosage..." she mutters. She begins to test different size dosages on a small box of mice. The first four mice she tested were not promising as the first two died instantly, the third had a heart attack and the fourths reproductive organ grew three times larger than normal and it proceeded to mate with the one that died of a heart attack until it died of dehydration. She sighed and put her hands in her hooves." I'll kill him at this rate...it's a wonder that he didn't die the first time...unless" she stood and started pacing." He coulda have drank all of it...I'm going about this all wrong." A lightbulb appeared above her head...oh wait never mind that was the cellars light." I need to give these mice a dose based on thier size. Once I know the safe dosage I can give them, I'll simply scale it up to accommodate spikes size and metabolism..." With that revelation she dove back in and five hours later and late into the night she held the vial in her hooves. Perfectly diluted and currently giving off the pink, seductive smoke. She yawns loudly as she tucks away her equipment. "By this time tomorrow...spike will be mine." Apple bloom mutters under her breath as she walks upstairs to her bedroom. She settles down and falls asleep, snoring loudly. The very next morning she spring her plan into action. After tracking down spike she dumped the contents of the shimmering pink vial into a bottle of cider which she quickly brought over to him. By the looks of it, spike was once again out doing twilight errands, dragging around a bag ladened with books, and wheni say dragging I mean literally. The bag was so overflowed he had already lost two books." Hey spike." Apple Bloom yells cheerfully as she jumps up next to him, startling him into almost falling to the ground." It looks like a lotta hard work your doing there. I thought you could use a drink!" She says cheerfully as she offers the open bottle to him which he takes happily and drains in a few gulps. "Thanks apple bloom." He says before picking up the two missing books." I'd better get back to this. I'll see you later." He says waving as she trotted away. "Oh don't you worry spike...you most definently will." Apple bloom trots away and chuckles darkley. As she walks down the street back toward the farm her eye twitched and she began to mutter under her breath. I was just a matter of waiting now. She could wait. She had plenty of time. She could wait...
Magical MishapsNine years after Sweetie Belle and Button Mash began dating, Applebloom and Scootaloo remained close friends with Sweetie. After gaining their cutie marks Applebloom began studying potion making and eventually Zecora took her under her hoof and began to teach her to brew magical remedies and potions. After being taught most of what Zecora knew Applebloom began to experiment with potions of her own creations in the farms Apple cellar. "Just a sliver of Timberwolves tail...." Applebloom mutters cutting a small piece of wood from the tail of one of the everfree forests most feared creature. She gently used a pair of tongs to carefully drop the small sliver of wood into the small cauldron she used when making intricate potions. The potion bubbled and for a brief second a green glow came from the cauldron..... Right before the entire cauldron blew up spraying the purple contents everywhere. She looked around and slowly began wiping the mess from her face. "What in Tarnation is going on down here?!" Applejack ran down the stairs and slipped in the purple goo, sliding across the floor before planting her face firmly against the wall. "Applejack!" Applebloom races to her sister and gently peeled her off the wall." Sorry I think ah might've used too much timber wolf tail....." She scratched her chin while looking at some of the purple goo on her hoof. "What in equestria were you trying to make?" Applejack asked as she tried to wipe the goo from her face but only succeded in getting her hoof stuck on her forehead. "I was trying to make something for pinkie pie." She admits while trying to grab a rag to clean out the inside of her cauldron." She asked me for something for a party coming up." "What exactly did she ask you for?" Applejack asks with her hoof still pinned to her forehead. "A potion that makes a pony feel joy." She says giving up on the now stuck rag. Applejack sighs." Applebloom I think it's great you are helping out folks....but I can't have you blowing up or burning down the apple cellar every other day! You should just take a break." She says looking around." And you can spend that break cleaning up this mess." She turns and walks back up the stairs with her hoof still stuck to her forehead. Applebloom sighs and looks around. She thinks for a minute and then perks up." Ah could make something to get rid of this goo easy!" She grabs her cauldron and takes it outside to clean it up. Two hours later and with her cauldron now completly clean, she got work. She started by adding water and bringing it to a boil. She then carefully added a gram of poison joke and stirred counter clockwise for ten seconds. As she stirred she added a small amount of salt making the cauldron puff smoke and glow purple. She smiled and laughed as she added a drop of the sap of an infant timber wolf. The potion shimmered and changed color to amber. She threw in a small blue crystal for color and finally gathered up a small amount of the goo and carefully dropped it in. The potion sparked and glowed blue. She extinguished the flame and put some in a flask. She smiled and walked to the wall she used a small dropper to take some of the potion and use a drop in the goo. It did nothing for a minute then smoked and dissapeared. She smiled and turned to walk away. Behind her she heard a loud spark and turned to find the goo was back, and expanding towards her. She tried to run up the cellar door but she found herself caught by the goo as she got to the top step. It pinned her against the door squishing against it. Applebloom knocked on the door gently and waited. After a few second applejack opened the door and sighed at the stuck Applebloom. "Let me guess......" She looked at the goo which was now blue. Applebloom blushed." Ah may have used a tiny little bit too much poison joke......" She sunk out of the goo and fell on the floor in front of applejack.

She suddenly had a flashback to when she was young and she realized what she had created. She jumped back and gasped." Oh no! I need to get rid of this! I know! I'll take it to Zecora! She'll know how to destroy it." She carefully covered the top of the cauldron and lifted it onto her back. Applebloom hefted it up the stairs, careful not to spill a single drop, and walked out of the front door." Applejack! I'm going to see Zecora!" She called as she walked through the door." Applebloom hurried across town as the sun began setting. As she walked with the potion a familiar voice came to applebloom's ears. "Hey Applebloom!" Spike called and he jogged to catch up to her. Around his neck was a bag that looked weighted down with books. Spike had grown taller since Applebloom was a filly. He was now about as tall as twilight and a bit taller than some other stallions in town." What's going on?" He asks smiling. "Uhh I really can't talk right now spike, I'm trying to get rid of this and it's real important that I don't get distracted." She says not looking over at the dragon. "What's in here?" He tries to lift the lid on the potion and Applebloom almost panics and drops the whole thing. "SPIKE DONT TOUCH THAT!" She yells trying and hop away before he can get a whiff. "Huh what?! Why?!" He jumps back from the cauldron. "Spike don't mess with that! I have to get this potion to Zecora!" She says steadying herself before continuing to walk past the furniture store "Why? Is she testing you or something?" He asks continuing to walk next to her. "No I made something I shouldn't have...." She says look at the small amount of pink most leaking from the cauldron. "Why?" He asks curiously and now waking backwards in front of her. " I didn't do it on purpose! I didn't know, I was just messing around with a new ingredient I came by, and it got a little bit out of control." She sighs as they exit town and start the trek through the forest. "Oh....do need any help carrying it?" He asks failing to notice the rock on the path behind him. "No spike, and don't you need to get those books back to twilight?" She asks looking up at the bag. "She isn't expecting me until later TONIGHT!" Spike trips over the rock and kicks up dirt directly into applebloom's face. She coughs and tries to clear her vision making the cauldron tipped. The entire cauldron rolls over her back and across the ground quickly spilling the potion all over the forest floor. The cauldron bounced over the rock spike tripped on and lodged itself firmly over spikes head with about half the potion still inside. "Oh no! Spike, are you okay?!" She runs to spike and tries to pull the cauldron off of his head. After failing twice she finally wrenches it off of him." Spike?" She carefully walks over to hi taps his shoulder as he was shaking some of the potion off of his head. "Applebloom." Spike looked up at her before she could stop him and he froze as she came into sight." Applebloom?" He smiles strangely and his pupils suddenly became pink and changed shape to hearts." Hehe. Hi." He waved sheepishly at her. Applebloom backed against a tree as the severity of the situation hit her like a ton of apples." What have I done?" She whispers to herself." WHAT HAVE I DONE?!" She yells into the forest. Author's Note I'll try and update more frequently this time and not take a year. Lol.
Temporary solutionsApplebloom stared at spike In horror as the potions effect became stronger." Spike how much of that did you take?!" She carefully walks forward a few feet. "Huh? I don't know." He keep smiling at her with his heart shaped pupils. "We have to get you back to twilight spike." Applebloom says as she tries to get spike to stand up. He giggles hugs her as she lifts him to his feet." Stop it." She says angrily as she starts walking back to town with spike against her side. After over an hour of walking, celestia had lowered the sun and Luna had brought out the moon. Applebloom struggled to get spike to the door of Princess Twilights castle. She threw open the door and stumbled inside. She immediately let spike fall to the ground where he stayed. The interior of the castle seemed deserted though she could hear twilight speaking from the map room. "Twilight!" She called and walked towards her voice. Twilight stuck her head out of the door and looked at the teenage mare. "Applebloom? What's wrong?" She asks opening the door wide to reveal Fluttershy and applejack standing behind her. "Ah messed up twilight." She admits and nods to spike who was now walking towards her. "What do you mean? Spike what happened?" She asked before spike threw his arms around Applebloom's neck. "I love you." Spike giggled and fell limp dragging Applebloom with him. "What in tarnation do you think your spin to my sister spike?!" Applejack rushed forward and pushe spike off of her. "It's not his fault applejack, it's mine." Applebloom said looking away as twilight restrained spike, who was trying to crawl to applebloom, with a magical bubble. "What in equestria did you do to him Applebloom?!" Applejack asks as spike began to slam his shoulder against the bubble. " I didn't mean to, it's just....the potion fell and I think he drank some by mistake!" Applebloom says trying to recall what happened as it still seemed surreal to her. "What potion?! Applebloom I told you not to mess with any more potions today." Applejack says getting ready to lecture her. "I'm sorry twilight I didn't mean to make a love potion, I was just messin with some new ingredients I got..." Twilights cuts Applebloom short and stares at her sternly. "Applebloom are you saying spike drank a love potion?" She looks at spikes pupils and shakes her head." That explains this." "I know but I was trying to take it to Zecora so she could destroy it, and then spike showed up and he tripped and the potion fell on his head." She says quickly trying to explain. "We can't deal with this tonight Applebloom." Applejack says shaking her head." Zecoras probably tuckered out and twilight doesn't know a lick about potions." "Hey! That's not completly accurate applejack." Twilight says glaring at her friend. "Okay then twilight, can you fix him?" Applejack asks smiling broadly. "Well.....no.....continue." Twilight says pouting. "It's like I said, nobody is in the mood to deal with this. We'll just have to tie down spike and wait to deal with this until at least tomorrow mornin." Applejack says. "Which will give you time to figure out how exactly you made this potion so Zecora can fabricate an antidote, right Applebloom?" Twilight raises her eyebrow at the filly. "Yeah....it's the least I can do for spike...." Applebloom walks over to the bubble where spike was desperately trying to claw his way out." I'm sorry I got you into this spike, but I swear to celestia we will find a way to fix this." Applebloom smiles and places a hoof on the bubble. As she does though the bubble shimmers and breaks. Spike falls forward and lands on top of Applebloom." Gosh darnit spike!" Applebloom groans as spike hugs her. After pulling the two apart twilight drags spike to a staircase. "As much as I'd hate to do this, I'm going to have to lock spike in the dungeon. I don't want him to get out of his room tonight and Come after you Applebloom."Twilight says surrounding spike once again with a magical bubble. The two sisters follow twilight down a long winding staircase to the lower catacombs of the castle where there were cells lining the walls. They didn't exactly look nice but they at least had beds and other commodities like running water. Twilights placed spike in the cell near the staircase and locked it." He should be fine here just for the night. I suggest you go home and start working up the recipe for that love potion applebloom." Twilight says walking back up the stairs. "And once this is done we are havin a discussion about your potion makin Applebloom." Applejack says as she begins to accend the stairs with Twilight. After failing several times to recreate the potion Applebloom groans in frustration and goes to bed. She could whip up the potion in the morning. Right now she was exhausted and she couldn't think straight. She fell into an uneasy sleep where she could hear spike calling her name and blaming her for putting him under a spell......wait she could actually hear him.....as if he were in the same room.....clearly as if he were right next to her. Applebloom awoke and quickly closed her eyes as the sun was extremely harsh as it filtered through the window. "Applebloom, applebloom." Applebloom's eyes widened at the voice and she turned to the side and opened her eyes to see spike with his face an inch from hers, smiling broadly." Good morning princess." He closed the distance and pressed his lips to hers. Applebloom jumped back and screamed as Big Mac opened the door to see spike standing in front of Applebloom with a goofy smile and most noticeably, a sizable errection. Author's Note oh no! What will happen to spike since Big Mac is not aware of the situation?! Only time will tell. Oh and one moe thing....the more views,likes, and comments I get the faster I update for your reading pleasure! So yeah.....do all that stuff if you want more really quick!
Something moreBig Mac froze at the sight before him before anger and confusion began to take over her snorted and charged forward, stopping short of spike. He then turned around 180 degrees and bucked him out of the two story window of applebloom's room. He landed in a pile of hay with a sickening thud. Applebloom screamed again. "Big Mac! What the hay did you do?!" She asked as she looked through her shattered window." Did you just buck spike out the window?!" She turns to him angrily. "Eyup." He said looking quite pleased with himself. "Didn't applejack tell you? Spike accidentally drank a love potion!" She starts hopping from hoof to hoof worriedly. His eyes widened." Nope." "Well let hurry up and make sure he ain't dead!" She said sprinting out of the room and down the stairs. "Eyup." Big Mac said as he followed suit. When they arrived by the pile of hay they could hear groaning and spike popped his head out. His eyes were closed and he was clutching to bump on his head. "Wow.....I'm honestly surprised he isn't dead." She pokes him and he falls back into the hay. "Eyup." Big Mac nods as applejack sprinted out of the house and over to the two. "What the hay happened?! I hear ya scream and your window was broken!" Applejack said looking around. "Why don't ya ask Big Mac." She said angrily hitting him with her hoof. "What did you do now?!" Applejack frowned. "Ah might've bucked spike outta two story window." She said nervously rubbing the back of his head. Applejack shook her head." You what?!" She looks around for spike who was still in the hay. "Come on applejack he fine." Big Mac said lifting him out of the hay." See! Fit as a fiddle." He tried to help spike stand but spike fell forward and landed on his face and groaned into the dirt. Applebloom couldn't help but giggle a little. "Applebloom, WE are going to go take spike back to twilight and then head out for zecoras hut, I expect to see you there." Applejack said as Big Mac started complaining. "Why do I gotta?!" He groaned before applejack glared at him. "Cause your the pony who kicked him out of a two story window, and your fixin it when you come home too." She says lifting spike to his feet." Got it?!" She growls. "Eyup." He says sadly and helps her carry him. Applebloom shakes her head and walks back to the house. She spends about another hour in the apple cellar before she finally successfully recreates the potion. She decided not to bring the whole cauldron. And instead she would simply ask Zecora how to destroy it. Applebloom scooped some of the pink shimmering potion into a beaker and sealed the top. She bolted her cauldron lid shut and placed it inside an apple barrel for safe keeping. Applebloom began to make her way across town toward the everfree forest. Her mind wandered back to that morning when spike kissed her. Even though it wasn't an ideal situation to have it, he first kiss wasn't that bad. She could even describe it as being comical, the way Big Mac kicked spike out of the window. She found herself giggling at the memory of spikes face. Applebloom arrived at zecoras everfree home within half an hour. She found Big Mac standing outside waiting for her to arrive. He opened the door and allowed her in. Inside were spike, who was tied to a chair and appeared to be unconcious, twilight, applejack, and Zecora. Applebloom walked to twilight and almost on queue she answered her question. "Sorry about that Applebloom, spike melted the lock off of the cell door and burned down the castle entrance." She smiled apologetically. "It's fine twilight." Applebloom shrugged and handed the beaker over to Zecora. She stared at the potion and sniffed it and after a moment of pondering she looked over at Applebloom. "Ah didn't mean to make it I was just tryin out some new ingredients I got." Applebloom said. "New ingredients are always a must, but what you've made here is a potion of lust." Zecora said as she let a drop of the potion fall into her cauldron. It simmered and hissed as the potion hit the surface. "Can you make an antidote?" Applebloom asks anxiously. "To take out of spike this greedy fire, I first must takes some of what he desires." Zecora stepped forward and yanked a single hair out of applebloom's mane. "Ouch!" She yelled as Zecora dropped the hair into the cauldron turning the potion from pink to Amber. "Now to remove spikes desire we must replace the greedy fire." She said as she rooted around her cabinets." Something repulsive to assault his senses, ah this will do......timber wolf essence." She held up a vial of thick white liquid. She uncorked the vial and let a drop fall into the cauldron turning the potion purple. Zecora scooped the potion into a bowl and walked to spike. She immediately stomped on his tail and when he opened his mouth wide to scream she casually dumped the potion down his throat. "Is that it?" Twilight asked the zebra. Zecora nodded and Twilights made the ropes dissapeared as spike stirred." Spike? Are you okay?" Twilight stood close. "Huh? What happened?" Spike asked looking around. He saw Applebloom and quickly jumped." Applebloom! What happened?! The last thing I remember is when you dropped that potion......everything else is kinda fuzzy after that." He holds his head. "I think it's best you don't remember some of it." She laughs a bit. "If you say so." He says standing up. "Is that it?" Applebloom says as spike simply walks out the door. "I guess so.....in the future Applebloom please be more careful in the future." Twilight says following after spike. As applejack leaves Applebloom stays behind to talk to Zecora." Is there any way I can destroy this potion Zecora." "tis a very simple solution you see, leave it here in the everfree." She says. "Are ya sure? It would affect the plant life or animal in any way?" Applebloom asks. "no." She said walking back to her cauldron. "Um one more question Zecora. Does the potion have to be consumed for it to have an effect on you?" Applebloom asked. "Yes, why?" She raised her eyebrow. "Just wondering." She said backing out the front door. Why was she feeling like this all of a sudden? She didn't drink the potion she only inhaled some of the vapor and even that shouldn't affect her. She felt a strange attraction toward spike, out of nowhere. She tried to shake off the feeling and started walking back towards sweet Apple acres so she could be rid of that lust potion......or maybe she would keep some.....just in case.
Borderline phsycotic passionApple bloom stared down into her cauldron where the potion of lust shimmered with that pink mist hovering over the to of it. It has been around two weeks since the whole mishap with spike and he was now back to his usual, cheerful self. From what he has explained the last thing her remembered was the cauldron bouncing towards him and after that everything was blank. Apple bloom had already apologized several times over and spike was happy to forgive her. Apple bloom inhaled some of the brightly colored fumes and sighed. From what she had researched about it, the smell the potion emits is unique to what one individual finds attractive. To Apple bloom, it smelled of the sweetest apples with a strange musk she couldn't quite place. Apple blooms mind drifted back to the kiss she had shared with spike. Even if he wasn't in his right mind, it wasn't bad. In fact, she couldn't stop thinking about it, no matter how hard she tried her mind drifted back to that event. She thought at first she had been affected by the fumes of the potion but no she was unsure of everything. "Apple bloom!" Apple jack called her name from the kitchen where she and Granny Smith had been making breakfast for the past half hour." Come eat or I'll just let Big Mac eat your food." "Comin!" She called back as she put the lid back on the cauldron and hid it back inside the barrel. She couldn't let Apple Jack or anyone else find it. She trotted quickly up the stairs and stepped onto the wooden floors of the house, closing the door behind her before heading into the kitchen where the rest of her family was waiting. She sat at the table and all was quiet as they began to eat. It was around halfway through the meal that applejack looked up at big mac and poked him then motioned towards Applebloom. He sighed loudly before looking up at a staring applebloom. It wasn't visible but it was still there." So uhhhh, Appebloom, i think we need to have a chat about spike an what happened." She almost spit her food all over the table. Her head shot up and looked at him. Had they found out what she was planning to do? "Ah think it's time we talked about...uhh....the birds and the bees...." Big Macs blush could be seen through his red coat. Her eyes widened and she almost spat. "Big Mac! I'm eating!" She said through a mouthful. He coughed loudly and nudged applejack. She stared at him then sighed. "Apple bloom we really need to talk about this." She starts but she cuts her off. "Applejack I already know all about it." Applejacks eyes widened to almost the size of her dinner plate. "How in Tarnation?!" She started to yell but Apple bloom stopped her. "Applejack what do you actually think me and the crusaders talk about anymore?" She raised an eyebrow and applejack frowned and moved her food uncomfortably. "Sorry sis sometimes I ferget you're almost a mare...almost. Meanin I don't want non of that nonsense happening under this roof. Not with anyone! Got it?" She asks sternly. Apple bloom nods in agreement. Apple bloom quickly finishes her meal then stands to leave back towards the cellar." Well I'm heading down to mix some more potions." She says trying to avoid questions as she rushes past them and slams the door to the cellar as she walks down the steps. After sliding on safety goggles She pulled the Apple barrel holding the love potion to the center of the room and pulled off the lid. She dipped a dropper inside and filling it. She walked to her potions table near the corner and sighed as she placed the dropper down." Now I need to find the correct dosage..." she mutters. She begins to test different size dosages on a small box of mice. The first four mice she tested were not promising as the first two died instantly, the third had a heart attack and the fourths reproductive organ grew three times larger than normal and it proceeded to mate with the one that died of a heart attack until it died of dehydration. She sighed and put her hands in her hooves." I'll kill him at this rate...it's a wonder that he didn't die the first time...unless" she stood and started pacing." He coulda have drank all of it...I'm going about this all wrong." A lightbulb appeared above her head...oh wait never mind that was the cellars light." I need to give these mice a dose based on thier size. Once I know the safe dosage I can give them, I'll simply scale it up to accommodate spikes size and metabolism..." With that revelation she dove back in and five hours later and late into the night she held the vial in her hooves. Perfectly diluted and currently giving off the pink, seductive smoke. She yawns loudly as she tucks away her equipment. "By this time tomorrow...spike will be mine." Apple bloom mutters under her breath as she walks upstairs to her bedroom. She settles down and falls asleep, snoring loudly. The very next morning she spring her plan into action. After tracking down spike she dumped the contents of the shimmering pink vial into a bottle of cider which she quickly brought over to him. By the looks of it, spike was once again out doing twilight errands, dragging around a bag ladened with books, and wheni say dragging I mean literally. The bag was so overflowed he had already lost two books." Hey spike." Apple Bloom yells cheerfully as she jumps up next to him, startling him into almost falling to the ground." It looks like a lotta hard work your doing there. I thought you could use a drink!" She says cheerfully as she offers the open bottle to him which he takes happily and drains in a few gulps. "Thanks apple bloom." He says before picking up the two missing books." I'd better get back to this. I'll see you later." He says waving as she trotted away. "Oh don't you worry spike...you most definently will." Apple bloom trots away and chuckles darkley. As she walks down the street back toward the farm her eye twitched and she began to mutter under her breath. I was just a matter of waiting now. She could wait. She had plenty of time. She could wait...
