Farmer vs Murderer: Lumberjack's Revenge
A Monster Inside of Me
Load Full StoryNext ChapterTwo years ago, Applejack was taken control by her evil counterpart, namely Lumberjack. She defeated her in the fight of confrontation, despite a few injuries she had during the fight. Even though when Lumberjack was currently locked up in the mirror prison, there's no telling when she would strike again.
Four years later at Canterlot High, Applejack was very relieved and happy that she's free again. There weren't any mirrors in her lockers so she's safe for now. When school was over for a day, nothing suspicious or strange was going on; especially in her room.
It wasn't until the exact same day when she was transformed. Deep inside her heart, Applejack started to feel threatened and defensive. She had a feeling that Lumberjack would be coming back to her for revenge.
"What do ya want from me?" Applejack asked as she was examining her mirror to make sure it's secured enough, "Ya can't get out of a secured mirror."
"That's when yer wrong, sugarcube," said a familiar voice as Lumberjack appeared in Applejack's reflection, "I found a mirror that ain't secured enough ta keep me here."
"Wh-Wh-What?!?" Applejack felt her heart beating faster and slowly backed up in fear. She was only scared of Lumberjack controlling her body again and forcing her to murder innocent people at the shed in the middle of the forest. She didn't want that to happen to her ever again. "Y-Yer gonna make me kill people at that shed, ain't ya?" she asked.
Lumberjack chuckled wickedly. "Ya just read my mind," she said, "I'm Lumberjack after all."
"Ya can't control me ferever ya know," said Applejack.
Lumberjack gave her a sinister smile. "Oh ya think I can't?" she asked with an evil snicker, "Well think again." She then faded away in the mirror and Applejack's reflection returned to normal.
Applejack knew that she had to do something before Lumberjack could recover her body. She then felt determined enough to attempt to prevent it from happening to her ever again. "Yer maybe dangerous, but that won't stop me from anythin' bad that could happen ta me," she said to her reflection.
The next day, she, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, Sci-Twi and Sunset Shimmer were gathered together outside of Canterlot High. The girls could already tell that something was wrong with her.
"Um...are you okay?" asked Fluttershy.
Applejack gulped slowly. "Ya won't believe this, but Lumberjack's seekin' revenge!"
The girls were shockingly confused. They couldn't believe what they heard.
"WHAT?!?" Pinkie screamed.
"No no not again," said Sunset as slapped her forehead with her right palm, "I probably need to tell Twilight -the one from other portal- that we need her help again."
"Maybe the spell wasn't strong enough to permanently keep her away from you," Sci-Twi said, "We'll need a stronger spell for her to recite."
"Most likely," agreed Sunset, "But I guess she's just as busy as she was from the Friendship Games. Again." Then she sighed sadly.
"Can't you at least try to contact her again?" asked Rainbow.
"I don't know, but I'll try," said Sunset as she opened her journal and started writing:
"Dear Princess Twilight,
Applejack is in danger again!
Maybe the previous spell isn't strong enough to get rid of Lumberjack permanently.
We, especially Applejack, need your help dealing with this situation.
Please take action ASAP! Applejack and I will explain more about it when you
come back through the portal.
Your Friend,
Sunset Shimmer"
"Let's just hope that she'll be here as soon as she can," she said.
In the evening, Applejack was already home from school and noticed that Granny Smith, Applebloom and Big Mac weren't even there, and all of the lights were turned off. At first she thought it was only a fuse, but then she had a bad feeling that it might be Lumberjack again. "What's goin' on?" she asked, "Lumberjack, is that you again?" She heard an evil laugh coming from her room. "Yup. That's you alright," she said as she went upstairs and went inside. Her room seemed to be just as normal as yesterday. Nothing suspicious happened yet but she was prepared for it. "I know yer in there," she said to her reflection, "Show yerself."
"Gladly," said a familiar voice as her reflection turned into Lumberjack, "Now, I have an unfinished business ta do with you. Ya know what I'm gonna do, right?"
"I sure do and I ain't gonna letcha do it," said Applejack as she got into her fighting stance.
Lumberjack laughed wickedly. "Wanna bet? Yer ferget'n that I'm a cursed soul," she said, "And cursed souls are more powerful than a mortal like you." And then she gave her a sinister smile and disappeared. No sign of Applejack's reflection anywhere in the mirror.
Applejack was then confused. What strategy was Lumberjack coming up with? Well, she's about to find out before her very eyes, and it's not gonna be pleasant.
The mirror was suddenly shattered to pieces and Lumberjack easily came out of it. She then smiled sinisterly at Applejack and said, "Since I'm finally free, now I'll be inside ya once again!" She bursted out laughing wickedly.
This made Applejack feel extremely scared and threatened. "Leave me alone!" she pleaded, "I don't wanna experience this ever again!" She slowly backed away from Lumberjack.
"Too bad," said Lumberjack, "You'll do it again anyway. This time, I'll have my revenge on you fer breakin' free from my control and defeat'n me by yer fight'n skills! I ain't gonna letcha do that ta me again, 'cuz you'll be completely under my control ferever!!!" She bursted out laughing wickedly again as she clutched onto both of Applejack's shoulders from behind.
Applejack struggled to break free from her but clutching pressure on her shoulders were too strong. The dark magic went inside of her body from Lumberjack's fingertips to her chest. Applejack tried to fight it off her but still too strong to remove. The transformation began exactly the same way as before.
Lumberjack felt victorious afterwards. "Boy it feels great ta feel anythin' again!" she said, "Luckily fer me, it's a full moon, so I gotta get ta my shed!" After she went to the middle of the forest, there wasn't any sign of the shed anywhere; nothing but a tree stump. Then she got extremely furious when she figured out that someone tore down the shed. "MY SHED!!!" she shouted, "NOBODY TEARS DOWN MY SHED!!!" Then she had to figure out a way to rebuild her shed to store her weapons in. But the problem was that she didn't have any tools to do so. "Hmph! There's always next time," she grumbled, "Lucky you, Applejack; lucky you."
