The Tragedy

On the way home, the orange filly met her best friend, a white pony with a curvy mane. She approached the orange filly with her parent who also just had a baby of their own.

‘Well I’d be darned, you have a new sister too!’ said the orange filly.

‘Why yes, but we still don’t know what to call her’ said the white filly.

‘Same here’ the orange filly replied.

They both chatted for a bit before leaving for their house, they said goodbye to each other and were off on their merry way. But before that, the white pony gave a present to the orange filly. Once they arrived back at their house, they laid the newborn down so that their granny could take care of her.

After that, they all went on a picnic on a nice field. But sadly, they didn’t notice what was right behind their flanks…

Behind a small hill, two wild beasts were eyeing them all, drooling in the process. They were ready to pounce on them as they were none the wiser of the tragedy and gore that was going to happen. Once everypony, started digging in, the two beasts attacked them all. It was a ferocious battle; luckily, the two fillies escaped unharmed. Sadly, their parents weren’t as lucky. They were both rushed into the hospital with severe scars and scratches all over their bodies. The two fillies weeping in the waiting room, they were soon called in by the doctor to be questioned about the happening during the attack.

‘Two Timberwolves jumped out at us while we were eating’ said the orange filly still weeping.

The red filly then continued ‘ Mommy and daddy told us to run, we didn’t see much of what happened but we saw them being mauled.’

The more they thought about it, the more they cried. They both requested to see their parents but to no avale. After several hours of waiting, the doctor came out of the medical office with a sad expression. The two fillies looked into his eyes and knew…… what happened.

The doctor finally had the courage to break the bad news.

‘Your parents…. have passed on.’ he said. ‘I’m sorry, we did everything we could.’

The siblings, heart broken, went back home crying, they didn’t know just how to tell Granny and their new sister.

Well' here's the second chapter. Cool cool. Not much to say.... um, bye!

Life Afterwards

As they arrived back at their home, their grandmother was on the couch worried, she jumped at the two siblings.

‘Are ya’ll alright? What in tarnation happened?’ The two told her what happened.

‘Oh no, you poor fillies, I’m so sorry.’ she herself began tearing up.

They all attended the funeral the next day to mourn the loss of the two loving parents. Now that their parents were gone, their granny took the liberty of being their guardian.

Weeks had passed since that day but the baby still hadn’t a name, but they realised what to name her when she was watching a seedling grow. Henceforth, she was known as Apple Bloom.

Many years had passed, with ups and downs throughout her life. But one thing was unchanging throughout the seasons, she and her remaining family would visit their parents’ grave every moment they could.

Even though she’d never talked to them before, she knew that their connection was forever, she truly loved her parents but she was unlucky enough to never have the chance to greet them. Even in their absence she still had a family to turn to during her sorrows, and that was enough for her.

The End.

Family

‘Wow, thanks Goldie Delicious, for the story.’ said Applejack. ‘Say, can we come back tomorrow for another one?’

’Why of course you can.’ said Goldie Delicious.

The three siblings went back home, clutching a photo of their parents that Goldie had kept in her pile of books.

‘Applejack, I miss mommy and daddy.’ said Apple Bloom.

‘Us too, Apple Bloom’ replied Applejack ‘Right Big Mac?’

’Eeyup.’ said the red stallion.

‘Don’t worry sugarcube, they’re always with us, in here’ Applejack pointed to her heart.

‘Now come on, let’s go home, Granny’s making Apple Pies!’ said Applejack.

’Okay! Let’s go!’ replied Apple Bloom.

They arrived back at the barn to see Granny Smith and Grand Pear at the dinner table with their dinner.

‘Here ya’ll go, we made these macintosh apple pies.’ said Granny Smith.

‘There’s even a side of Pear Butter for you all’ said Grand Pear.

‘Aw shucks, thanks ya’ll.’ said Applejack. They all sat together while eating their dinner and chit-chatting.

‘I wish mommy and daddy were hear to eat with us all’ said Apple Bloom.

‘Oh sonny, they’re always with us, somewhere. We just can’t see them.’ said Granny Smith tearing up a little.

‘We all wish they were still here, but we can’t turn back time. But they’re here, in our hearts and in our love for them.’ said Applejack.

‘So what do you say?’ said Pear Butter holding a cup of cider, ‘ To Bright Mac and Pear Butter?’

’TO BRIGHT MAC AND PEAR BUTTER, CHEERS!’ said everypony.

A New Sibling

Time was ticking; there wasn’t a moment to lose, two fillies were rushing to the hospital, one holding what seemed to be holding a giant bowtie, the other holding a paper card. Both of them rushed into the hospital and where escorted into a small room at the end of a corridor that read ‘Delivery Room’. Inside, there was a mare sleeping in a bed while a stallion was holding a baby in his hooves.

‘Hi Daddy!’ said the two fillies quietly as to not disturb the mare sleeping.

The yellow stallion greeted both of them, and said ‘ Say hello to your little sister kids’ the fillies greeted the newest addition to their family. ‘ All we have to do is to give her a name, but we don’t know what to name her’ said the yellow stallion ’Do you two have any idea?’.

The two fillies both shook their heads but they suggested to just wait for a turning point in her life as an idea. They all nodded in agreement as most baby names had been named this way, including the two fillies themselves who were named after the first thing she drank and the only food he would eat as a baby.
