Chapters Chapter One: Growing Pains
Applejack slowly woke up slowly the next morning yawning and stretching his giant forelegs. He then rolled around in his bed to see Nurse Redheart standing over him writing something on a notepad as she explained, “well it looks like you’re going to be discharged from the hospital today.”
The stallion turned over in the bed to face the nurse and begrudgingly asked, “so...that’s it then I just go home and try to live a normal life?”
Nurse Redheart looked Applejack squarely in the eyesas she explained, “look, I know you're not happy with what happened, but I've seen ponies lose a lot more than you and still managed to live a good life. Trust me, you’ll get through this you’re a tough one.”
She held out a hoof as Applejack gave a sigh as he was hosted out of bed for the first time since the incident two days ago. Applejack was now on all fours the stallion could feel the added weight on his body for the first time making it feel alot heavier. He stumbled about trying to keep himself from falling over for a few moments as Redheart just blushed upon seeing Applejack towering over her and whispered, “wow. You really are big.”
He slowly got steady on all fours as he looked up and shouted, “yeah, yeah I get it. I look like Big Mac. Just give me a second."
The big hulking stallion got himself adjusted and then as he slowly placed one hoof in front of the other as he began walking making loud thumps ! As he slowly trotted through the front door and out into the clean white halls of the hospital. Redheart chuckled as she watched the cumbersome Applejack stomp along the way still trying to get use to his new muscular body. The stallion eventually made it to another door leading to the lobby and when he opened it up, he was met by seeing many nurses going about doing their duties or chatting amongst eaxh other. Applejack gulped nervously as he slowly walked down through the hall shaking all over. Applejack could feel the stares of the mare nurses looking him over, and the stallion couldn’t help but blush as he quickly scampered along trying to get out of the hospital as soon as possible. The stallion eventually went downstairs to the main lobby. Nurse Redheart turned over and asked, “well just take these forms to the receptionist, and she’ll have you officially discharged.
Applejack gave a small nod. “Alright, well...I guess if there’s anything else I should know?”
Nurse Redheart blushed as she explained in a soft tone. “Well...there is one thing you should know. Your sexual drive may be different and can have issues with your reproductive organs. There are classes here that can teach you what to expect if you like?”
Applejack’s blush grew deeper as he whispered, “Um...I'll think about it thanks…” Nurse Redheart giggled,” hey no problem remember if you need anything let me know.”
The nurse then went back down the hospital while Applejack shook his head and headed over to a bored looking unicorn mare who was the receptionist with a blush growing on his face and gulped as he whispered, “Um...I need to be discharged from the hospital.”
The mare blushed as she slid a paper as she checked things off when she came to the gender it was checked stallion. Applejack stomped a hoof on the ground shaking the entire lobby as he shouted, “I’m not a stallion! I’m a mare turned into a stallion by a spell!”
The receptions turned the paper around reading the comment section and blushed as she whispered, “oh sorry they went by your gender as you arrived here. We can have them fixed if you like?”
Applejack just snatched the files and snapped, “forget it!
He then signed the papers with a messy signature then stomped towards the entrance. As Applejack opened the door and continued outside he was quite upon seeing Big Macintosh standing there. The big red coated stallion slowly walked forward with a smirk as he greeted his new little brother, “hello Applejack I’m here to escort you home.”
The younger stallion glared at Big Mac and grumbled, “you’re the last pony I wanted to see.”
Big Mac smirked, “oh come on! I’m the perfect pony to teach you how to be a stallion. I mean we really do look alike.”
Applejack punched him in the chest. “Shut up! I don’t need to be taught on how to be a bucking stallion! It’s not like I was transformed into a helpless foal!”
She then continued on her way grumbling Big Mac ran after him and shouted, “hey stop that! I’m just trying to help you here!”
Applejack was stomping along causing mini-earthquakes with every step making stands and ponies around shaking about.
Big Mac eventually came up to his brother and explained, “well my first tip would be that you should be more gently. You are causing an earthquake with every step.”
Applejack stopped then turned around and asked, “how do you do it?”
Big Mac smirked as he explained, “It’s simple.” The stallion then went around and adjusted his brother’s giant back legs as he lectured, “look the key is to relax yourself.”
Applejack grumbled a little before he gave few deep breaths as she calmed her nerves then he began to walk much more calmly, and Big Mac walking alongside Applejack and complimented him. “Good, see that’s much better.”
Applejack was blushing as her mind drifted to something else as she asked, “so did you take a look?”
Big Mac smirked and simply replied, “Ey’ yup!”
Applejack’s face grew a little red as he groaned, “ugh now I’m just going to be thinking about that all day! Honestly, I don’t understand how you stallions walk around with that thing between your legs.”
Big Mac shrugged as he casually explained, “you get used to it I suppose? Trust me it won’t be too much of an issue.”
Applejack just rolled his eyes and grumbled irritably. “That’s easy for you to say! You were born with it!”
Big Mac just chuckled as they continued to walk through the streets of Ponyville. Many mares were turning in their directions giving Applejack glances and blushing as they whispered amongst each other. The stallion began twisting his tail between his legs. “This is just too weird.”
Big mac hated to admit it, but Applejack had well tone muscles and was quite handsome. He then complimented his brother. “You are quite the eye catcher that’s for sure.”
Applejack squeaked at the comment as he quickly stumbled on his hooves and whined, “let’s just get to the house, please! I rather not stay out in public like this!”
The stallion couldn’t help but laugh as he watched Applejack scamper off down the road and then he casually followed his new brother across Ponyville’s streets.
As Applejack burst through the doors of his home and whinnied in surprise upon seeing Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith raising their hooves shouting, “Welcome home Applejack!”
The stallion just stood there and blushed as Apple Bloom flung herself into the stallion’s embrace, he held the little filly on his hooves. Apple Bloom looked up at Applejack with her big magenta colored eyes and chirped, “oh just look at you a new big brother!”
Applejack seeing how happy Apple Bloom couldn’t get angry at her and simply sighed, “yeah I guess so only for a little bit so don’t get used to it.”
Apple Bloom burst into laughter as she scampered back. “Oh don’t worry about it! I’ll be okay when you turn back to my big sis!”
The former farm mare placed his sister on the ground and ruffled her mane. “Well, I’m glad to see your happy about this whole situation.”
While Applejack wasn’t looking Granny, Smith came around her grandson’s back and bluntly looked between his legs. Applejack could somehow feel Granny Smith behind him as he quickly closed his back legs and looked around with a scowl and snapped, “Seriously Granny!”
Granny Smith looked up and grumbled, “I was just seeing if ya got the family apples, that's all jeesh! You're more finicky than when you were a mare.”
Applejack turned around and shouted, “what does that have to do with anything!”
He then heard chuckling as he turned around to see Big Mac walking through the front door. “well, don’t worry she did that to me when I hit puberty.”
Granny turned around and explained, “well the apple family has a problem with the family apples as they grow big and cause issues, I’m not a pervert or anything.”
Applejack snapped back, “I just got discharged from the hospital they would’ve told me if there were any issues!”
Apple Bloom was completely confused as she asked, “um what are family apples?”
Granny Smith came over to the filly and explained, “oh that's somthin’ I’ll teach ya when your older. Now let’s leave Applejack and Big Mac alone.”
Apple Bloom gave longing look back and whined, “but I wana play with Applejack! It’s not fair!”
Big Mac shook his head and sighed, “Well while Granny Smith and Apple Bloom are occupied, why don’t we have a proper meal?”
Applejack gave a nod and agreed, "Yeah, that hospital food wasn't really filling."
He then followed Big Mac to the kitchen table. There was a small feast of apple pie, pancakes, an assortment of apples covered in a caramel glaze. Applejack’s stomach growled as he started to dig in and began gorging on the pastries and candied covered apples. The big red-coated stallion snickered as he watched his brother eat his fill from the table. As Applejack finished up the last bits on the table, he then looked up with his muzzle covered in bits of crumb and apple pieces. With a surprised look on his face he asked, “so is that all?”
Applejack looked around and was quite stunned upon seeing how much he ate. Big Mac gave him a pat on the back and commented, “Oh come now, we all know even when you were a mare you had a bottomless stomach. Come on I think apple bucking will work out those extra calories.”
Applejack gave a small nod and was too embarrassed to say anything. He then wiped his mouth and followed his brother into the apple orchard outside.
Upon reaching the apple orchard, the two went about bucking apple trees Applejack growled as he stomped his back legs into trees one by one. He was still quite furious about the whole situation and accidentally hit one apple tree with too much force creating a loud snap! Making the bark crack causing it to snap and splinter as the tree came crashing down. Big Mac gave a long-exasperated sigh while Applejack stepped back whimpering,” I’m sorry for that I’m still not used to my full strength.”
The big red stallion gave his brother a pat on the back. “It’s alright, remember as big as you are the key is to relax, you're still stressed out.”
Applejack shouted in frustration as she stomped a hoof on the ground. “of course, I’m stressed! Ugh, it doesn’t matter how many times I buck I still can’t believe this happened to me! I just want to turn back into a mare!”
Big Mac came over and asked, “how about we go do something else?”
Applejack shrugged and gave a nod of agreement as she then followed her big brother out of the Apple orchard. The orange coated stallion grumbled as he followed Big Mac towards the pig's pen and as they fed the pigs their slop. As he poured the pig slop into their troth Applejack squeaked as he suddenly lost his balance and slipped on some mud and slid straight into the pig pen sending splinters of wood all over the yard. The pigs all looked up and squealed with delight as they jumped over the dazed Applejack oinking quite happily. But the orange coated stallion quickly got up and began to help his brother round up the pigs into the pen. Not long afterwards Big Mac was starting to repair the broken fence putting up new boards and hammering nails in. All the while Applejack stood in the mud watching the pigs eating their slop making sure they won’t escape. After Big Mac finished, he looked up and chuckled, “yeah being a big stallion can be tough. Trust me I’ve had a few incidents like this happen to me.”
Applejack just sat there grumbling, “I want to just be back to a normal mare. I can’t work or do anything like this.”
After finished mending the fence Big Mac slowly walked over. “Why don’t we just cart the apples into town and try to sell some that should be easy enough?”
Applejack stomped a hoof on the ground and scoffed, “I’m not going out in public as a stallion again!”
Big Mac looked his brother over and tapped a hoof to his chin as he explained, “well I may have a solution that can help ease you in going out in public…”
Applejack was now in Big Mac’s room wearing a set of jeans and a red plaid shirt with a brown vest, with a cow colt hat over his head, and a set of boots with spurs on the end of each boot. He stepped out walking around a bit clumsily as he asked, “where did you get this? I don’t see you wearing clothes that often.
Big Mac came over and explained, “I got these from Braeburn for my birthday last year. I never needed them, so they're still in good condition.”
Applejack blushed to see himself in the mirror thinking about how he now looked a lot like his cousin Braeburn and just sighed, “Well, at least I don’t feel naked now. Yeah, let's go sell apples maybe once I get used to this body, I won’t feel so clumsy and embarrassed.”
Big Mac gave a nod and replied. “I completely agree, now let’s get going were losing daylight.”
They both strode off out of the house and towards the barn. As Big Mac was hitching himself to the wagon laidened with barrels filled with apples. Applejack began hitching himself next to his brother. The big red-coated stallion turned around with a surprised expression and asked, “are you sure your up to this? I can carry this myself."
Applejack rolled his eyes and scoffed, “look at me Big Mac, I’m as big as you now, I’m sure I can help ya pull this heavy load.”
Big Mac shrugged as he replied, “Alright then, come on.” They then both grunted as they heaved and started to pull out a huge wagon out of the barn. The two grunted and heaved as the stallions continued to trudge through the streets of Ponyville. Applejack now sweating heavily as he turned and asked his brother. “So…I have a question how do you stallions walk around naked without having a...um...a…”
Big Mac chuckled, “have a boner? Well, most stallions know how to control themselves. But to be honest, a lot of stallions do, but they keep it under their bellies, so no pony sees. It’s easy to do.”
Applejack blushed and whispered, “uh okay? That’s it?”
Big Mac gave a nod and replied, “Ey’yup.”
Applejack blushed as he turned his head around and whispered, “gosh being a stallion is weird.”
The two eventually made it to the marketplace and they were setting up their stand. Rainbow Dash who was flying overhead seeing Applejack wanted to say hi. She then landed onto the ground and upon seeing Applejack in her new outfit. The pegasus placed a hoof to her face as she tried to hold back laughter. “Applejack what are you wearing!”
Applejack turned around and snapped at the pegasus. “It’s a cowcolt outfit! Something designed from my Cousin Braeburn from Appleloosa.”
Rainbow Dash burst into laughter as she joked. “you look like a rodeo clown Rarity fixed up!”
Big Mac also burst into laughter as Applejack stomped a hoof on the ground. “oh, just shut it!”
Rainbow Dash got up and looked her friend over and commented, “Applejack the stallion huh? Well…to be honest, you weren't exactly a mare, to begin with.”
Applejack snapped back. “Yeah well, it would’ve been funny if Twilight turned you into a stallion instead of me. Heck, I bet you probably want to be a stallion.”
Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes at the notion and scoffed, “not in a million years they're big, bulky and less agile with all that extra muscle. Not mentioning that thing between your legs makes you less aerodynamic. I'm betting yours is probably two feet long.”
Big Mac burst into more laughter as Applejack shouted, “oh that’s it!” He then tackled Rainbow Dash into the ground and as the two rolled in the dirt Rainbow Dash somehow ended up on top. They were both laughing now, and Rainbow Dash looked over Applejack’s new body with a fresh perspective seeing how well toned his muscles were, his giant square jaw, his musty sweaty smell making her shiver. But the tension broke as both ponies squeaked seeing a tent forming in Applejack’s jeans. Rainbow Dash stepped back blushing as Applejack was confused at first but upon seeing the small tent squeaked in embarrassment as he placed all four limbs over his underbelly and stammered an apology. “I’m…I…I’m sorry.”
Rainbow Dash was unsure of how to interpret what just happened and stammered, “y... yeah this was a bad time and all…” She then soared into the air as fast as she possibly could as Applejack stomped a hoof on the ground in pure frustration and looked up into the sky and shouted, “Buck this new body!”
Chapter Two: Its not Easy being Big Mac
After the embarrassing encounter with his best friend Rainbow Dash. Applejack was now nervously standing near his small apple stand along with his big brother Big Mac selling apples to ponies as they walked around the market square. As the ponies went about their business some would constantly steal glances at him making the stallion blush as the ponies whispered amongst each other. Despite being in clothes Applejack was still quite embarrassed about being in public and it showed as he swished his tail around his backside despite having his jeans on, with a big blush on his face. Big Mac just shook his head and whispered, “hey, Applejack ya don’t need to be so bashful all the time. Ya making the customers uncomfortable.”
Applejack looked around at everyone staring at him and some still whispering behind their hooves. The stallion gulped and whimpered, “this is still so embarrassin’ and all. I just want to go home.”
Big Mac out a hoof on his brother's shoulder and replied, “well you can if you want? I don’t need any help holding this place down.”
Applejack looked up with a worried expression on his face and asked, “are you sure? There looks like a lot you need help with.”
Big Mac looked his head and replied,” seriously I’m fine you had a long day you need to go and get your rest.”
Applejack gave a deep sigh and relented, “fine, I’ll go home and try to get some sleep.” He then slowly walked off with his head down trying to avoid the gaze of everypony around him. Then seemingly out of nowhere, he saw both Apple Bloom and Granny Smith walking down the road with the little filly’s eyes went wide with surprise as she scampered over and shouted, “Applejack! Applejack!”
The stallion was quite stunned at the sudden outburst from his little sister and was thrown back as he held her into his hooves. The little filly then began circling around the giant stallion and squeaked, “oh my goodness look at the size of your cutie mark! Those apples are twice as big then when you were a mare!”
Applejack squeaked in embarrassment and tried to hide his cutie mark with his tail as many ponies looked over. Apple Bloom couldn’t help but giggle and continue trotting around her new brother as she chirped, “so what else is changed about you?”
She then rubbed a hoof down his front leg and exclaimed, “wow look at how muscular you are now! I bet you could do a hoof wrestle with Big Mac now!”
Applejack rolled his eyes scoffed, “oh whatever! I bet I could have beaten Big Mac in a hoof wrestle before I turned in a stallion.”
Apple Bloom then took her front hooves and brought her brother’s face down, “wow you got one strong jaw and your eyes are bigger too! You really are Big Mac's twin!”
More snickering from ponies all around made Applejack blush even more so then before and he began stepping backwards as he whined, “Oh, stop that Apple Bloom ya making me uncomfortable!”
Apple Bloom wanted to comment more about Applejack's new body but Granny Smith snapped. “Oh, that’s enough! Your lunch break is over by now you go to school sugar cube! I’ll take care of Applejack from here.”
Apple Bloom kicked some rocks and grumbled, “oh your always spoiling the fun.” She then turned to Applejack and replied, “look we better have some time together later after school.”
Applejack gave a nod and ruffled the filly’s mane. “Sure thing sugar cube, now you run along before Cheerilee gives you a tardy slip.”
Apple Bloom just grumbled irritably as she ran off still mad that she couldn’t hang out with her new big brother. Applejack sighed as Granny Smith hobbled over and thanked the older mare, “thanks for rescuing me, I don’t know what I would do with Apple Bloom hoppin’ around me.”
Granny Smith just tugged Applejack by the ear and dragged him along she snapped. “Oh, now you owe me, now come on! I need your help with the shopping”
Applejack squeaked, ”Ow, stop that Granny! “ For some reason, he couldn’t seem to break from his grandmother’s grip and was continued to be pulled through the streets like a foal getting punished by his mother. They came to a stand selling all kinds of vegetables and as Granny Smith picked them out he mare chirped, ”hello do you need any help carrying your groceries?”
Granny Smith shook her head and proclaimed, “well no, I have my big strong grandson helpin’ me. Ya see he was my grandaughter Applejack and now she's a full grown stallion let me tell ya he can carry a full barrel of apples on his back!”
Applejack blinked as the mare looked over the stallion's body and whispered, ”oh really?”
Granny took a barrel of zucchinis and placed it on Applejack's back who grunted at the sudden weight added to his back making his legs shake. The mare seemed to be impressed watching with admiration in her eyes and looking Applejack's handsome body over. Applejack just rolled his eyes and stomped off with Granny Smith and they continued towards the market square. Applejack was still breathing heavily struggling to deal with the weight and was still embarrassed by everyone watching him as he stammered,” G...granny are we done shoppin’ yet?”
She shook her head. “were low on food and I need to make sure we have a lot of it in the house. I know how ya stallions have big appetites and all.”
Applejack was going to respond but Granny Smith then headed over to a stand and picking out a whole bunch of carrots and placed it on top of the zucchinis. The stallion grunted under the added weight but Granny didn't stop as she then she turned to a berry stand and grabbed a box filled to brim with strawberries and stacked them on top of the box of carrots. Applejack was buckling under the weight gasping but he could see many ponies watching (mostly mares) admiring his feat of being able to bold so much weight. Applejack smirked raising his head with pride but it all went away as Granny stacked two bags of flour making him buckle and making him slam on the ground sending the fruits and vegetables to spill out. Many ponies burst into laughter while a group of mares simply giggled and whispered amongst each other even more. Granny smith snapped “you all don't just stand there! Help me get my groceries and find me a wagon! Dont't worry about who's pulling it! My grandson can pull all these groceries by himself!
Applejack glared at Granny Smith but could do nothing as many ponies hitched him to a wagon and filled it the groceries Granny smith bought she then proclaimed, “There everythin’ is ready to go come on Applejack move your big rump!”
Applejack could only grumble under his breath as he began to pull the wagon filled to the brim with food and slowly walked through the streets of Ponyville. He was busy concentrating on just pulling the wagon but he could feel the eyes of all the mares in the vicinity watching him and admiring the amount of weight that he was pulling. He continued grunting and heaving as he followed Granny Smith back to their house. When they were finally reached the front porch he unhitched himself and slammed the wagon back as hs growled, “Granny I know what you're doing but I'm not just going to date some random mare for you.”
Granny Smith just three a hoof and scoffed, “I know you didn't care for stallions when you were a mare. But, Big Mac is taking things way to slow in getting a mare friend, while Apple Bloom is way too young to start dating. So your my only hope of making grandkids, I need to see at least one grandchild before I die!”
Applejack rolled her eyes. “That’s why you were checking me out earlier to see if inherited the “family apples.” Honestly Granny, Big Mac and I ain’t gonna have grandkids just to please you.”
Granny Smith grumbled,” well ya can at least try, I saw how those mares looked at ya and chances are one’s gonna be knocking on that door and ask ya out and you're going to say yes.”
Applejack stomped a hoof and shook her head. “No way, I ain't going out with another mare.”
Granny smirked, “that’s what they all say.” they started putting away the groceries into the house and as they finished storing the last of the food in their giant pantry. Both ponies then heard a knock at the door. Applejack was curious as he came over and opened it to see that Rainbow Dash was outside. She blinked in surprise and was quite stunned as the pegasus was nervous as she apologized. “Look Applejack I just came to apologize for what happened earlier...I mean...I know that you...um didn’t mean to do that and I...um…”
Applejack started to sweat nervously remembering their embarrassing encounter back in the market square. The stallion gulped gaining some courage as he asked, “yes...Rainbow Dash? Do you need anything?”
The pegasus was also quite nervous as she whispered, “well...um..I'm on lunch break right now..and um...can we talk about things over lunch or something my treat?”
Applejack was going to say no but Granny interrupted by kicking Applejack outside onto his rump as the mare blurted out. “Of course she can! Now Applejack go on and get some lunch with Rainbow Dash here. It'll be rude seein she invited ya.” Granny then quickly. slammed the door before Applejack could retaliate.
Applejack growled and wanted to stomp back into the house and give his Granny Smith a piece of his mind. But Rainbow Dash placed a hoof on his shoulder and asked, “as much as I would like to see you and Granny fight are we going to eat or what?”
Applejack who was really irritated just got up and shrugged. “Yeah sure, why not? Let's get out of here before I buck down another apple tree.”
The two friends were now sitting across from each other at a small outdoor restaurant having lunch together. They both had a plate with a dozen dandelion sandwiches and small glasses of iced tea with a pitcher full of it in the middle of the table. Rainbow Dash who was chewing on her sandwich slowly watched with amazement as was Applejack guzzling down sandwich after sandwich and was drinking the whole glass pitcher. Rainbow Dash was completely amazed at how fast Applejack was eating as she commented, “wow you sure we’re hungry.”
Applejack who swallowed the tea down as he replied, “well it’s been a long day. You have no idea the embarrassment I went through with Apple Bloom and Granny Smith today.”
The stallion started gulped down then entire pitcher. After finishing it Rainbow Dash with a sheepish grin stammered. “so ...um...I have to ask how are ya feeling now?
Applejack slammed the pitcher down and shrugged, “fine, better I guess...I need to apologize for what happened.”
Rainbow Dash blushed and waved a hoof. “I know you’re still trying to get control for your new body. Trust me I know more than enough about the sexual tensions you stallions go through.”
Applejack just shook her head in disgust and grumbled, “still that was really disgusting. I need to have more self control.”
Rainbow Dash gave a nod and “yeah I agree, that was really disgusting. But I have to admit it was kind of funny seeing you have a boner.”
Applejack gave a small blush unsure if she should comment and continued to eat making Rainbow Dash snicker. As Applejack continued gorge on his sandwiches the stallion noticed the pegasus eyeing her as he finished the meal. He then asked, “so, is that all? I mean is that all you wanted to talk about?”
Rainbow Dash smirked, “no, not at all the reason I wanted to talk to you is because I would like to race you. I mean I bet now with all that muscle its gonna slow ya down.”
The earth pony snorted, “even so I bet I could beat you in a hoof wrestling contest no problem.”
Applejack slammed his forehoof down and Rainbow Dash exclaimed, “oh yeah! Let's see what you're made of! come on big guy!”
The excited pegasus slammed her hoof down as well and they soon clashed in the middle of the table. The two grunted as they secured their hooves together but it didn't take long for Applejack to overpower Rainbow Dash and slammed her arm down in an instant having the pegasus be thrown into the ground. Applejack gasped in horror as she quickly ran over and picked her friend up and started to apologise
Rainbow dash blinked looking up into Applejack's eyes. She looked over her friend's new features with his thick jaw line, his plaid shirt soaked in sweat, the big worried green eyes looking over her and the big muscular hooves now holding her body. Rainbow Dash jumped up and squealed flying a bit aways from Applejack sensing how awkward it was just lying there and quickly stammered, “Uh..y..yeah im okay! Nothing broken so I'm good.”
Applejack gave a sigh of relief and pushed his mane back. “That's a relief, I guess I still need a lesson or two from Big Mac.”
Boht ponies then paused and stared at each other for a few moments before both started to burst into fits of laughter. Rainbow Dash then flew over and sighed, “well it looks like I need to go back to busting clouds...it was nice seeing you.”
She then flew off into the air leaving Applejack looking upwards as he gave a big exasperated sigh, “alright, i'm gonna go home and take a long nap now.”

Chapter three: One Big Apple Jam
Braeburn was walking down the road towards Ponyville humming a tune as he was dragging along a wagon filled with barrels containing "apple Beer" as many ponies waved a hoof at him he waved back as he skipped along with a smile on his face. He headed straight for Sweet Apple acres where he'll have the Apple family store and sell the beer at a local bar downtown. The stallion blinked in confusion as he noticed an odd sight seeing an orange coated stallion in a cow colt outfit walking down the street heading towards Sweet Apple Acres as well. He noticed that the stallion had the stature of Big Mac but also had the coat, eyes, and mane color of Applejack. He blinked utterly confused about what he was seeing looking quite confused at this stallion and whispered to himself, "by golly, that stallion is like if Big Mac and Applejack fused together?"
He trotted over grunting as he dragged his wagon behind him as the load was quite heavy and shouted," hey! You! Wait up a sec!"
The orange coated stallion turned around with a fearful look in his eyes upon seeing Braeburn and began to shake nervously stammered, "um hey uh...um…"
The yellow coated stallion took out a hoof and exclaimed, "the name's Braeburn just put it there!"
The giant orange coated stallion gave a nervous nod and shook Braeburn's hoof and gulped, "yeah...um..my name is…Apple Ja...I mean Apple Jam!"
Braeburn chuckled waving a hoof. "There's no need to be nervous uh...Apple Jam. I just came to ask if you can help me pull this wagon over to Sweet Apple Acres." He then waved a hoof and explained, I came to deliver some fresh brewed Apple Beer. I don't have any bits on me, but I'll give ya a barrel for free if ya can help me unload all of this."
The orange stallion stood there for a few seconds he then shrugged and sighed, "why not seems simple enough." Braeburn then hitched the stallion to the wagon and asked, "so Apple Mac, I guess ya must be some long lost cousin of ours. Where do ya live?"
The stallion was now shaking all over as he stammered, "w..we..well I c..come from a small town..called...um...Appleville."
Braeburn paused as he mumbled, "Appleville, never heard of that place before? Guess must be a new town that sprung up. Happens all the time, I guess."
After finishing hitching up "Apple Mac" to the wagon, he lead the stallion to the house as the big orange coated stallion seemed to be lost in his own world. Braeburn was a bit concerned and asked, "so...um Apple Jam...why are you acting so nervous?"
The stallion squeaked at the question, and with sweat pouring down his face, he stammered, "I...um...uh...I have just been thinking of the apple bucking coming up and uh...well I guess I seem to be knocking trees over every time I buck."
Braeburn chuckled, "oh that's all? Well, Big Mac was the same way when he got his growth spurt back when he was a teenager."
Apple Mac who also remembered when his brother was a cocky teen and chuckled, "yeah I remember that, he almost knocked down the entire apple orchard. Gran-" midway through the story he squeaked and clamped his mouth shut making Braeburn peer down at the stallion with a suspicious look and ask, "so ya know Granny Smith and Big Mac huh? Why haven't I heard of ya before?"
He gulped and replied," Well...I don't get out much."
Braeburn shrugged, "eh just wondering is all, I bet I have tons of family that I don't know about. We are the biggest and one of the oldest families in Equestria dating back to."
Apple mac nodded and stammered," right...I mean...who knows maybe were brothers?"
Braeburn burst into laughter," yeah, I wish!"
They then came upon the apple family barn, and Braeburn gave a nod. "Here, will store the barrels in the cellar."
He opened it with a key, and both Braeburn and "Apple Mac" started unloading the wagon and began carrying the barrels down the rickety wooden steps. After a while, it seemed that the entire unloading took a few hours, and that was when Big Mac came over and asked, "hey, you two need help down there!"
Apple Jam froze in place as Braeburn shouted back. "Yeah! There are a few barrels left!"
Big Mac grunted as heaved down one of the barrels and placed inside as Braeburn slammed a hoof on the shaking orange coated stallion making him squeal and replied, "hey Big Mac I want ya twin Apple Jam! He helped me bring the wagon here and unloaded half of the barrels."
Big Mac turned with a smile as he looked into Apple Jam's eyes and snickered," sure... it's nice to see you Apple Jam or was it Applejack I can't seem to remember?"
Applejack glared at his brother making Braeburn burst into a fit of laughter, stomping his hooves on the ground. Applejack! That's a good one! He does look a lot like her."
"We just have the same coat, that's all!" "Apple Jam." snapped back.
Big Ma walked around his "cousin" and added, "well you got the same eyes and mane color as well."
Braeburn looked over the stallion with a closer and noticed that everything about this mysterious stallion did seem to remind him of Applejack. He then asked," hey uh...I don't mean to be rude, but could I see your cutie mark? "
Applejack gulped and stepped backward as Big Mac snickered," yeah, it's scorching today why don't ya take off them clothes."
Braeburn blushed and turned his head back as Applejack stomped a hoof on the ground in anger. He then tore off the shirt and removed his jeans, revealing the three red apples printed on her rump. Braeburn's eyes went wide with disbelief. "N...no way! Yo...your Applejack!"
Applejack looked down and grumbled, "Eyyup."
Big Mac came over and gave Applejack a pat on the back as he explained, "yeah this crazy mare named Trixie came over and tried to take over Ponyville a few days ago. Long story short Applejack was transformed into a stallion on accident during the incident."
Braeburn looked Applejack over, and it took him a few minutes of gawking before a blush came over his face, and he asked, "does she got the family apples?"
Big Mac gave a simple nod. "Eyyup!"
They then both burst into laughter again as Applejack was quite furious as she slammed a hoof on the ground. "Alright, that's enough! Are we gonna put these barrels of apple beer down here or we just gonna gawk over me!"
Braeburn came over and scoffed, "oh yeah we're gonna store the barrels, and after that, you and I have to go celebrate I mean it's not every day you favorite cousin turns into a stallion!"
Big Mac gave a nod of approval. "Sounds good to me. It's not like we have much else going on today."
Braeburn turned around and exclaimed, "come on, then we got no time to waste!"
He scampered up the steps as Applejack gave a long exasperated sigh as Big Mac came over. "Hey look, I know you're mad at me, but he was gonna find out anyways."
Applejack just grumbled," whatever! let's just finish unloading them barrels." He stomped up the steps as Big Mac blushed and snickered as he followed behind.
It was now seven pm, and the stallions were drinking apple beer out of big beer steins at the local bar. Applejack decided to just wear her cow colt hat and a red bandana around her neck seeing he wanted to try to relax. But the stallion was still nervous constantly glancing around nervously. Braeburn, who seemed to be quite drunk, took a big swig of his beer stein looking Applejack over with a stupid smile on his face. He then turned over at his direction. Applejack tried looking away seeming to try to focus on drinking his beer. The stallion was now quite curious and asked, "So what's up? Do you need anything?
Braeburn blushed as he came forward and asked, "I have to ask, have you peed in your new body yet?"
Applejack rolled his eyes and grumbled, "yes, I have peed, and it's really not that much different from a mare."
Big Mac chuckled and explained, "well being as big as me, I would agree with that."
Braeburn chuckled and seemed to be quite drunk as he asked, "so what do you think of stallions do ya have feelings for them or do ya like mares now?"
Big Mac snorted into his beer as Applejack gulped shaking around nervously as she answered, "Um... I'm not sure…I never really had any feelings for either."
Big Mac came over and laughed, "Oh come on, don't be shy! You can tell us."
The orange coated stallion turned around and glared at his brother and snapped, "Oh shut it! At least I don't play with a doll still!"
Big Mac squeaked as his ears went down as Braeburn burst into a fit of laughter. The big red-coated stallion looked down and began to sip his beer, trying to hide his embarrassed expression.
Applejack then turned around facing Braeburn and growled, "no, I'm not the one who cares much for dating."
Braeburn looked Applejack over again, really taking in his muscular physique and asked, "Well, have you ever considered it now? I mean you're quite the eye catcher any mare would be lucky to have you."
The stallion stepped back with a blush growing on his face. "I...I haven't really! I mean…it never crossed my mind."
Applejack's cousin strode up, rubbing a hoof over his shoulder and smirked, "dang I bet you could even beat big old Macintosh here in a hoof-wrestling contest."
Applejack was now feeling really uncomfortable with all the beer was churning in his belly. But he could feel the heat between his legs seeing the way Braeburn was looking at him. The stallion raised his head and asked, "come on, let's dance."
The orange coated stallion blinked as he was a bit confused and stammered, "ya..ya sure? But I don't really dance."
Braeburn didn't hear him or didn't care as he dragged Applejack out on the dance floor. He was blushing continued to dance back and forth around the floor. They were both very drunk stumbling about more than dancing. But as they continued Applejack started sweating profusely. He was trying to understand why he was feeling so hot. Was it because of heat? Could it be Braeburn likes him more as a stallion? Applejack wasn't sure as he continued to stumble around with his cousin. Then as the music became slower, and the two continued to slowly dance on the floor as Braeburn brought himself up close to Applejack's face and lightly kissed him on the lips. The orange coated stallion instantly reared back as he stammered, "Uh...I gotta um go…"
Braeburn stopped and stepped back with his face now a beet red." I'm...I'm sorry...yeah go on…I just had too much to drink."
Applejack gave a quick nod he then stepped ran out of the bar as fast as he could.
Applejack was now walking home late at night grumbling as he kicked rocks feeling weird about what happened between him and Braeburn. "We were just drunk, It doesn't mean anything."
He then looked up and saw that Rainbow Dash was standing outside the bar and was glaring at him. Applejack stood there with a blank face as the mare grumbled, "so it looks like you and Braeburn are dating now?"
Applejack reared back and exclaimed, "Buck no he's my cousin! Besides, even if we were. How is that any of your business?"
Rainbow Dash stomped a hoof and shouted, "I don't know! I just hope you're not going crazy!"
Applejack stomped a hoof down and shouted back. "I'm not dating Braeburn! He got drunk, and did somthing stupid that was all! Stop making a mountain out of a mole hill!"
Rainbow Dash fluttered over still flustered as she exclaimed, "no! I just don't want to lose my best friend and have her think she's a stupid stallion!"
She was going to leave when Applejack seemingly drunk and flustered crossed his hooves and grumbled. "You have feelings for me don't you!"
Rainbow Dash paused with a surprised look on her face as Applejack stomped over and growled, "Don't deny it. you have feelings for me."
Rainbow Dash gulped unable to say anything she stammered. "I am...um…"
Before she could do anything, Applejack walked over with a stern look and asked, "Am I right or wrong?"
Rainbow Dash stepped back with a look of fear on her face. She then fled into the night sky as Applejack looked up and gave a long exasperated sigh as he grumbled,"I wonder who else has a crush on me?"

Chapter four: Hidden Feelings Coming to Light
Applejack was sleeping in the next morning being still quite drunk from the small party he and Braeburn had. The room was dark, and Apple Bloom slowly opened the door with a tiny sliver of light into the room. She then peeked into the room and saw that he was completely passed out as Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo peeked into the room. Apple Bloom slowly turned to Scootaloo and whispered, "hey, stay here and keep watch."
Scootaloo gave a nod and whispered back. "Yeah, I'll knock on the door three times if somepony comes over here."
Then Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom both slowly walked into the room, and they peered over the snoring stallion as Sweetie Belle asked: "so...what are we doing here?"
Apple Bloom gave her friend a mischievous grin and pulled out a small vial filled with a green liquid as she explained, "This potion will make him be more...energetic that's what Zecora told me. I just want him to play with me before we go back to school. It's not fair that Granny and Big Mac get to hog him all to themselves."
Sweetie Belle blushed as she nervously replied, "Um Apple Bloom, I don't think this is a good idea. You sure this is safe?"
Apple Bloom rolled her eyes. "Zecora said this, "sometimes I work late, which leaves me to need for a way to alleviate. This potion will keep me from falling asleep, to keep me from losing all the work I reap."
Sweetie Belle scratched her head, and with a confused look and asked, "so...what is she trying to say?"
Apple Bloom chirped, "it's just like coffee. that's all now stop your worryin'."
She then took the vial poured it into Applejack's mouth, and they stepped back as he groaned rolling over and squeaked falling off the bed. He slammed onto the floor and then looked up at the fillies giggling as he grumbled, "what are you two up to?"
Apple Bloom stomped a hoof and snapped, "Well, I just wanted to get you up, so we play together. You didn't take any time to hang out with me yesterday."
Applejack groaned as he rubbed his fine and shouted, "fine! What do you want to do at five in the morning?"
Apple Bloom tapped a hoof to her chin. "Well...can you come and help us with something at the treehouse?"
The big stallion rolled his eyes as he followed the cutie mark crusaders slowly and carefully out of the house. They continued to walk through the apple orchard and went on their way to the tree house where the cutie mark crusaders hang out. There were some trees knocked over as Apple Bloom pointed at them and asked, "hey, these trees were knocked over during a storm a few nights ago can you help break them with your bucking?"
All three fillies nodded as Applejack eyed them," did you cut these trees down just to watch me buck them?"
They all shook their heads no with sheepish grins. Applejack rolled his eyes and went about smashing the trees with his hooves and breaking the wood and smashed it into tiny pieces. The stallion was somehow so energetic he started to gather the wood into a wagon as the cutie mark crusaders watched with their mouths wide open. He then to began to dig a ditch with his hooves like a giant dog, the big stallion then poured the pieces of wood down into the pit. He then threw a match in there as well and burned the pile into cinders. After that Applejack used his back hooves and shoved all the dirt all over the cinders and looked up as he shouted, "there, is that it!"
Apple Bloom came over and giggled, "well, um I wasn't expecting you to get all that done that fast! You're amazing!"
Applejack started to stomp about with a crazed look in his eyes. "Come on, give me another job! I feel like I can run around the world and back!"
Sweetie Belle jumped up and down as she exclaimed, "oh, can you help my sister! she needs gems for some new designs she's making!"
Applejack already took off and a few moments later he was back dragging a giant wagon load full of gems. The fillies squealed, as Scootaloo asked, "hey! could you build a Halfpipe for me! that would be so cool!"
He then went about constructing a half pipe out of wood, and the fillies squealed on delight as they continued to give Applejack more jobs.
Braeburn also woke up quite groggily as he was hungover that morning. He slowly walked down the steps and saw Big Mac with his mouth wide open. The yellow coated stallion was curious as he asked, "hey, what's going…"
They both looked out and blinked to see that there was a stone tower, a cabin and there was even a pool with the cutie mark crusaders swimming about. Braeburn blinked and asked, "Um...Who did all this?"
They all pointed to Applejack patching the pool with cement he waved a hoof and shouted, "Hey! I made a pool want to jump in!"
Big Mac's eyes narrowed walked over and asked, "what's gotten into you."
Applejack who was still energetic sit up wide-eyed as he exclaimed, "I don't know! I just got up this morning, and I feel like my brain is on fire!"
Big Mac glared at Apple Bloom who blushed as she explained, "well...I may have given him a potion to give him more energy. It was so we can hang out together this morning."
The big red coated stallion roared, "ugh seriously! What did I tell yall you about giving potions to ponies like that!"
Apple Bloom whimpered as Applejack ran over to Big Mac and defended the fillies, "hey, it's ok I'm feeling great right now! Also, Braeburn I'm so sorry for last night. We were both probably drunk, and we weren't thinking straight when we kissed. I'm sure it was nothin' am I right?"
Braeburns face turned a bright red as Big Mac's eyes went even more extensive and stepped back. The cutie mark crusaders all swam over to the edge of the pool with surprised looks on their faces. Apple Bloom shouted, "Applejack, you kissed Braeburn!"
The orange coated stallion paused, releasing what he just said and turned around and stammered, "what no! That's not what happened! I mean...it was just a small kiss on the cheek."
Sweetie Belle giggled, "aww, that's so cute, It's nice to see you two actually being nice to each other for once." The fillies all burst into laughter as Braeburn slowly walked back into the house as Big Mac just grumbled, "I'm going to go buck apples and try to forget what you just said."
He stomped off as Applejack slammed a hoof to his face. "Buck! why did I say that!"
He then turned to the cutie mark crusaders "hey, aren't you three supposed to be in school or something anyways?"
Apple Bloom shook her head. "No, Its Saturday silly!"
Applejack shrugged as he walked off following Big Mac to go buck some apples as well.
As Applejack was bucking trees alongside his brother. They went about working for some time before the orange coated stallion turned to Big Mac and explained, "look, Braeburn and I were really just drunk and being stupid."
Big Mac sighed and grumbled, "I know, but you should know that Braeburn is well...gay."
Applejack paused and turned and asked, "say that again? Braeburn is gay! but wasn't he dating that buffalo Little Strongheart."
Big Mac shook his head. "He was, but they broke up a while back after she found out about it. I think he's just still in the closet about it as I'm the only one he's told."
Applejack paused, and sweat started to pour from his forehead as he stammered, "wait...so...he...actually… kissed me because he found me attractive?"
Big Mac gave a simple nod. "Ey' yup."
He groaned and slammed a hoof to his face as Big Mac gave his brother a pat on the back, "it's fine, I just think that your cousins so it might not be a good idea to date each other."
Applejack gulped as she stepped backward and stammered, "right, well... I'm going to go and think about this...also um don't punish Apple Bloom too much she just wanted to hang out with me?"
Big Mac who was still angry growled, "she did give you a potion without you knowing. I thought she would've learned her lesson after what she did to Cheerilee and me."
Applejack chuckled, "yeah, we better make sure she doesn't do that again."
Applejack was now walking through Ponyville again with many ponies still whispering behind his back or giving him odd glances. He felt so awkward about everything and now knowing about Braeburn and Rainbow Dash both having feelings for him it was a lot to process. But out of the blue, he spotted Rainbow Dash again going about her business buying some groceries. The stallion gulped he began to sweat and shake about with anxiety, not knowing if she was still mad at him. He slowly walked up to the pegasus and asked, "hey...R...Rainbow Dash?"
The pegasus blushed as she turned around and gulped seeing Applejack as she whispered, "hey...uh Applejack... didn't expect to see you up so soon considering how much you drank. I think I'm going to go now."
Applejack raised a hoof as he exclaimed, "wait, I need to talk to you about last night!"
He rushed over in front of Rainbow Dash, and Rainbow Dash slammed into him as she growled, "can you just get out of my way?"
Applejack smirked, "actually I thought we could do something like a hoof-wrestling contest or a race just you and me."
Rainbow Dash looked the stallion over and shrugged, "alright, let's go and race then! I bet I could take you on!"
Applejack gave the idea some thought before he replied, "alright, let's run to the train station and back! If I win, we talk and have lunch."
Rainbow Dash gave a nod as she smirked, "alright, first one to run to the station and back here wins!"
Applejack turned into the direction of the train station and shouted, "Alright, let's go!" They two then burst off in a cloud of dust as they both ran as fast as they could down the street. The two ponies continued to run at breakneck speed for some time, and Rainbow dash saw that Applejack was beating her as he sped to the train station and started to run back down already! As Applejack and Rainbow Dash crossed, he boasted, "you might as well start flying Rainbow! There's no way you're catching up on hoof!
He thundered onward as Rainbow Dash spat as she did fly up and sped they to the train turned around and zoomed past dozens of ponies towards the market place. Applejack who was now heaving badly as the potion wore off, leaving him exhausted and out of breath. Rainbow Dash who was flying fast couldn't break in time as she slammed into Applejack and they tumbled about and slammed into Twilight! They all groaned as they all slowly got up. Twilight adjusted herself as she turned to her two friends, both rubbing their heads and asked with a hint of worry in her tone. "Hey, are you two, ok?"
Applejack, who was rubbing his head grumbled, "no, I just got a few bruises, we were just having a race."
Rainbow Dash was fixing her wings and replied: "yeah, we're fine, Twilight; it's not like we haven't gone through worse."
Twilight smiled and explained, "Well, Applejack, I was actually on my way to see you! I have some exciting news!"
Applejack's face brightened up and asked: "what about!"
Twilight then continued, "You should be happy to know that I'm making a lot of progress in your cure! In fact, Celestia has her best students in Canterlot working on it. However, I do need some measurements from you just to see how much we need to give you."
Applejack stood up with wide eyes and asked, "really..well...I don't see why not?"
Rainbow Dash smirked as she trotted over. "yeah whatever, well you owe me now for that I might as well stay and watch Twilight poke and prod you."
Applejack just rolled his eyes and followed Twilight into her library as did Rainbow Dash who was snickering behind their backs.
Twilight was using a measuring tape and was measuring her body parts. The unicorn first took the tape measuring her giant thick legs. She commented, "my goodness they're as big as tree trunks."
Rainbow Dash crossed her hooves admiring them. "Yeah are you sure they're not actually tree trunks?"
Applejack was going to shout at Rainbow, but Twilight thrusted his large square jaw down with ger magic and felt around his face. "hmm, strong and quite sturdy...I would suggest drinking more milk seeing your bones are probably thicker."
Rainbow Dash snickered as she joked, "I can just see you going around and asking cows for milk."
Applejack stomped a hoof and snapped. "Just shut it Rainbow Dash!"
Twilight then went about and measured each apple of her new cutie mark. She then asked, "I have a theory that your increase strength may also be a result of your altered cutie marks."
Applejack scoffed, "I guess, I dun know if that has to do with anything."
Twilight then went about and measured the stallion's giant muscle-bound chest, his long muscled body, and placed a protractor under each hoof and traced each one with a quill and measure the circumference of each one. After completing her measurments Twilight whispered, "hmm, seems like overall your more muscular than when you were a mare that's for sure."
Rainbow Dash snickered, "Maybe I should consider turning into a stallion as well."
Applejack grumbled irritably, "it's not like you need muscles for flying? Didn't you say that before?"
Rainbow Dash shrugged, "well at least I would beat you in just about anything."
Applejack just scoffed, "in your dreams featherbrain. Even if you were turned into a stallion, I would best you in just about anything."
Rainbow Dash flew over and shouted "oh yeah! I bet I could beat your sorry rump in any contest even as a mare! So bring it on Apple balls!"
Applejack stomped a hoof and snorted but squeaked out in pain as Twilight then took a hair from both his head. Applejack shouted, "couldn't you have used scissors!"
Twilight shrugged as she casually replied, "oh, I could have, but I need you to calm down."
The purple coated unicorn then took a pair of scissors in her magical aurora and clipped some from Applejack's tail she then clipped some fur from her coat. She then went to her work station and started messing around with some tubes and placing them into a machine. Both Rainbow Dash and Applejack looked over with confused expressions on their faces as Twilight wrote down some notes. The worried orange coated stallion then nervously asked, "so...what did you get from my measurements?"
Twilight was tapping a hoof on her chin as she rambled, "well I have to admit...I don't know if it was the spell, or maybe you thought about him when the spell hit you...maybe you and Big Mac had contact mixing with each others DNA?"
Applejack blinked as he replied, "so what are you saying?"
Twilight turned around with a surprised look to face her friend and explained, "y...you have the same exact features, body mass, and your DNA all matches nintey nine percent with Big Macintosh's."
Applejack blinked as he turned to Rainbow Dash who stood up and shouted, "Woah seriously? is Applejack his twin or something?"
Twilight nodded and continued," yeah he's pretty much an identical twin, it's weird huh? I don't know why though I'm just letting you know."
Applejack asked, "so...um...am I the same age as Big Mac too?"
Twilight shook her head, "actually no, your twenty the same age as when you were transformed. It's just your DNA matches with Big Mac's."
Rainbow Dash burst into a fit of laughter, "oh wow! I wonder if Twilight had a crush on Big Mac when she zapped you."
Applejack glared at Rainbow Dash and shouted, "hey, that's my brother your talking about!"
Twilight came over with a blush growing on her face as she explained, "Alright, you two calm down, to be honest, I do find Bi...Big Mac attractive. Maybe I did think about him accidentally when I turned you into a stallion."
Applejack's ears went flat as he gulped as Rainbow Dash was now rolling on the floor kicking and laughing. Twilight looked over at the pegasus and asked, "um Rainbow Dash can you leave the room? I need to talk to Applejack about something...private."
The league was still snickering as she gave a nod and left the library. The mare turned around and asked, "now...Applejack, I know this may sound weird but can I see your records on your genitals."
Applejack's ears went even lower as her face turned red and instinct crossed her front hooves over the midriff and whined, "why would you need to do that!"
Twilight also with a sheepish grin explained, "mostly for scientific purposes. Redheart won't send me any of your medical records without your consent. If you allow me to look them over, I could maybe see some insight in this spell and perform research on what may help speed up the process in creating a cure."
Applejack groaned as he looked down and sighed, "fine, I guess I wouldn't mind...as long as its for research purposes only."
Twilight gave a nod as she crossed her heart with a hoof. "Of course, I would never abuse your trust."
She then pulled out the forms and gave them to Applejack as she read them over and signed them. Twilight still blushing clopped her hooves on the ground as she asked," So how is everything with you being a stallion?
Applejack shrugged, "things have been up and down, I hate how everypony treats me like I'm different. They can't seem to treat me like a mare or a stallion, and I hate that."
Twilight gave a nod as she replied, "Well if it helps, to me, your always going to be the welcoming mare I first met who tried to introduce me to every member of her family."
Applejack gave her friend a sheepish smile and replied, "thank you, I guess you would want to write a letter about friendship to Princess Celestia about this as well?"
Twilight shrugged, "we can wait until after you're cured, and you can decide to do that if you want to."
Applejack gave a small nod and slowly walked out of the library only to see Rainbow Dash looking down at the ground seeming to be a little distraught with sweat pouring down her face. The mare looked up and sighed, "hey Applejack, I need..need to tell you that.,.um..last night I...well...I was out of line, and I...ju...just want to say sorry…"
She turned away as Applejack stood there and asked, "um...well...I guess our race ended in a tie...wana still go out for lunch and talk about it? My treat?"
Rainbow Dash looked up and asked, "How about dinner...at your place...I wouldn't mind hanging out with your family, especially Braeburn I need to get into his head for our upcoming hoof ball game."
Applejack gave a big smile as he replied, "sure, why not? I'll tell Granny so we can plan the meal."
The pegasus gave a quick nod before zooming back into the air as Applejack once again looked up with a serious expression and whispered, "I wonder...if once I turn back into a mare would she still have the same feelings for me?"
Chapter five: A Zap Apple Family Dinner
Later that evening Rainbow Dash was sweating nervously as she unusually slowly flew her way towards the Apple family homestead seeming to be stressing over this dinner invitation. Despite a lot of apprehension over how awkward the diner was going to be, the mare eventually managed fluttered up to the front door but before she had a chance to make her first knock it opened up suddenly and greeted Apple Bloom giving a beaming smile on her face by her arrival. "Hey Rainbow Dash! You ready to go eat!" she said in a homely welcome
The mare looked down at filly and gulped before she responded, "uh...yeah…" She scratched her mane nervously, not sure what to say, in contrast to her usual cocky, confident attitude that she usually exude, it almost sounded shy like her friend Fluttershy. Then she was escorted into the house's dining room by the little filly. Rainbow Dash trotted up to the dining table where Big Mac, Applejack (still a stallion) and their cousin Braeburn were all sitting together peacefully around the dining table, eating a giant apple salad with pints of apple beer. Granny Smith was going about getting Apple Bloom onto the table and placed her onto a chair as she began to dig into her salad and drink her own homemade apple juice. The filly then noticed that the pegasus mare was still standing at the fringes of the meal, waved at her to come, "so, come on Rainbow Dash sit down and eat with us." She tapped her hoof on the empty seat between her, and Applejack.
Seeing no other choice but to oblige the invitation she quickly trotted over to the proffered seat then sat down blushing seeing three stallions that she had to admit looked quite sexy around her. Then suddenly, another knock at the door and Apple Bloom chirped, "I got it!"
The little filly rushed over to the entrance and opened it to reveal the unexpected visit of Twilight, who was blushing as well as Rainbow did as she peeked her head in, and asked," Um...I heard you were having a big dinner I thought it would be okay if I joined in?" She asked sheepishly.
Applejack blushed as she explained, "yeah, uh I forgot to mention that I invited Twilight over to dinner...if you don't mind."
Granny Smith gave a nod of consent as she added, "that's alright, come on in and sit down, we have plenty of food to share around." Just like Dash, she Twilight sat down in her chair and turned to Applejack and asked, "so, um...I did look over your records, and Celestia has informed me that your cure will be completed in a few days."
Applejack gulped as his eyes went wide and he asked, "really!? I'll be back in a mare before next week!" She was relieved to be looking forward to finally being back to usual mare self, and stop with all the weird staring from everypony in Ponyville, like for the past few days have been.
Twilight gave a nod as she took her own served bottle of apple beer and sipped it down looking at Big Mac with a blush growing on her face. For herself, Rainbow smirked as she usually always does with when she was about to draw Applejack into another their long-standing rivalry between them and sarcastically added, "that's interesting, I guess that's too bad because I was hoping we could do another Iron mare challenge as a stallion." She positively oozed out smugness as she chugged from her apple beer.
Applejack looked over and grumbled, knowing full well that Dash was goating her into again and yet again couldn't resist at her taunting. "Are you saying I can't beat you as a mare?" Flip the tables back at her, expecting to get a rise from her too.
Rainbow Dash crossed her hooves. "Yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying. I honestly don't think you have the guts to take me on as you're now." Her smug smile just begged to be wiped off her face.
Applejack slammed a hoof on the table. "Oh, you don't think so!"
Ruining the moment for the both of them granny came in then bite Applejack by the ear. "That's not how a proper stallion should act in front of a lady."
The old mare chastised her grandfoal for her uncouth behavior, with a stern tone. "Now say sorry to poor Rainbow Dash right this moment."
Applejack whined at the pain in his ear, which looked comical, seeing how much bigger he was then Ganny, as he cried, "Alright! Alright! I'm sorry!" Granny Smith let go and scoffed,, "just like your father, I see big headed and stubborn."
Big Mac for his part chuckled at seeing his sister get to feel one of granny's infamous ear bites. Eventually, things died down and as the ponies continued to eat Twilight chimed in, "I also have more exciting news! I know how to perform the spell that I did to Applejack!"
Everypony gasped and turned their attention towards the unicorn just as Granny Smith slammed a hoof on the table and shouted, "Don't you dare turn me into a stallion! I'm too old for your hocus pocus magic!"
Twilight seeing how everypony was taking this way too seriously she simply rolled her eyes and snapped back. "There's no need to worry, I'm not going to just start reversing ponies genders."
Applejack eyed his friend as he was unsure of Twilight's claim and asked in a suspicious tone, "so did you experiment the spell on Spike yet?"
Twilight blushed a little as she had thought about turning Spike into a female. But, the mare simply waved a hoof and casually explained, "well...it is a sensitive spell I would rather do it on a pony whose more willing."
Rainbow Dash looked down at her bottle of beer as she seemed to be thinking methodically with a blush growing on her face muttered. "Um..yeah...I wonder who would volunteer for that."
Braeburn held a hoof to his mouth and snickered, "I could see you turning into a mare Big Mac? Remember when you lost a bet, and I made you wear a dress through Appleloosa?"
Everypony around the table started to snicker and laugh all the while Big Mac's face turned a bright pink as he stammered, "y...you promised to never tell anypony about that!"
Granny Smith also chimed in. "Oh, Big Mac has always liked cross-dressing I used to find him digging through his mother's old dresses."
Many ponies burst into even more laughter while Big Mac whimpered and lowered his head under the table.
Applejack looked over at her embarrassed brother and placed a reassuring hoof onto Big Mac's shoulder and exclaimed, "Oh, come on! It would be funny to see you as my big sister! I bet you would have some big teats as well!"
Big Mac bowed his head and tried to start focusing on his meal as he grumbled irritably. "I rather not."
They then continued to eat as Applejack who was a bit concerned about Twilight's new spell turned around to face her friend and replied, "Well, I think that we shouldn't be turnin' ponies gender just yet, not until before we know this cure actually works."
Twilight gave a nod and responded, "Yeah true, that's another reason why I haven't done any experimentation with this spell."
Braeburn shrugged and commented, "Well, I wouldn't mind seeing Applejack stay as a stallion longer. "I mean he built a pool outside! I don't think he could've done that as a mare."
Applejack, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash all looked around and glared at Braeburn, and all shouted at the same time. "What you mean!"
Braeburn squeaked and stumbled backward as Rainbow Dash flew straight towards Braeburn and shoved a hoof into his face and shouted, "oh so you think because I'm a mare I couldn't kick your rump! Huh!?"
The embarrassed stallion who now had sweat pouring down from his forehead. He gulped and stammered, "I...I'm not, I was just saying she seemed to be more energetic and stronger when Applejack was a mare."
Apple Bloom blushed to know her potion had a lot to do with that as she nervously whispered, "Well, I did give Applejack a potion that made him have more energy."
Big Mac crosses his forehooves as he glared at Apple Bloom seemingly still quite angry at her and growled," that's also why I had you and your friends help me dismantle that tower and cabin ."
Apple Bloom looked back at her own salad as she grumbled, "at least we kept the pool."
Braeburn, who was chugging down a fifth bottle of apple beer as he suggested, "Well, maybe we should have Applejack compete against all the strongest and fastest stallions in Ponyville?"
Big Mac finished his second bottle of beer and snickered as a thought came through his mind as he placed it down and added," that actually would be funny to see Iron Hooves compete against you."
Rainbow Dash paused, tapping a hoof to her chin and whispered, "you know what? Twilight why don't you turn me into a stallion?"
Everypony turned towards the pegasus with their eyes widened in disbelief. Twilight was as equally surprised and concerned about what her friend said, and in an unsure tone, she asked, "Rainbow Dash seriously! But why!?"
Rainbow Dash slammed a hoof on the table with passion as she shouted, "Like Braeburn said! It seems the stallions around here think they're better than us! So why don't we mess with them a little? Applejack can handle the strong and fastest stallions I'll deal with those who think that can outfly me!"
Everypony looked towards Twilight all anticipating on her agreeing to Rainbow Dash's request. Twilight gulped and looked into Rainbow Dash's eyes seemingly concerned for her friend as she responded, "look Rainbow if your drunk I can't take that as consent. You're going to have to wait until tomorrow when you're sober."
Rainbow Dash scoffed and snapped back, "I'm not drunk! I'm serious! I also want a fake name!"
Applejack scratched his head, seemingly confused by his friend's insistence in turning into a stallion and asked, "How will that even work? I mean most ponies in Ponyville know about what happened to me."
Rainbow Dash snickered behind a hoof as she explained, "but they don't know about me! You said the cure will be here in a few days? Well, I can just write a letter to take some days off from cloud busting while I go beat some stallions."
Everypony than looked over at Twilight who gave a sheepish smile and stammered. "Well...I d...d...don't see the problem, but I'm going to need you to sign some forms."
Applejack slowly turned his gaze towards Rainbow Dash and gave his friend a cold stare and eyed the nervous looking pegasus as he asked, "why are you really doing this?"
The pegasus didn't respond to Applejack as Twilight took out some forms and started to have her sign them one by one. After finishing signing, every form Twilight looked over the documents with intense scrutiny. Everypony watched and waited with anticipation as she gave a nod of approval and sighed, "Alright, everything is ready and in order. Let's go outside I rather not have this spell hit anyone else on purpose."
Rainbow Dash threw her hooves across her chest and snapped, "alright and don't hold back! If you need to think of Big Mac, bring it on!"
Everypony started snickering, and Twilight's face started to slowly turn into a deep red while Big Mac slowly turned around towards the quivering unicorn with a surprised expression printed on his face. There was a long awkward silence as the unicorn mare slowly got up from her chair still seemingly embarrassed as she stammered, "Um..well... let's uh do this Rainbow Dash."
The unicorn then quickly went out the back door followed by Rainbow Dash who also had a slight blush on her cheeks. Braeburn, who was quite drunk, stumbled out of the house giving a drunken laugh hiccuping every once in a while. Apple Bloom was quite giddy with excitement as she skipped outside. Granny Smith pushed herself from the table and grumbled something about hocus pocus and went upstairs to get some sleep. Big Mac waited until everypony left the kitchen as he looked around towards Applejack and asked in a nervous whisper," does Twilight have a crush on me?"
Applejack gulped seeming unsure about what to say. However, seeing how the secret was already out, she whispered, "um...yeah...I think she does…"
Big Mac still blushing slowly got up and slowly walked outside as Applejack gave a long exasperated sigh pushing back his mane and followed suit grumbling, "this isn't going to end well."
Everypony all stood outside in the field as Twilight stood there looking over a spell book. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes stomping about impatiently and snapped, "come on Twilight just do it already!"
The unicorn grumbled under her breath as she closed her spell book and asked her friend, "now Rainbow Dash I'm going to need you to hold still okay? I don't want to miss."
Rainbow Dash stomped a hoof into the ground and shouted, "come on and bring on whatever you got! I can take it!"
Twilight gave a deep sigh and closed her eyes, concentrating as she shot out a beam of purple magic right at Rainbow Dash. Magic tendrils started to wrap around her body, and everypony watched with wide eyes, along with Apple Bloom skipping about in excitement. Rainbow Dash's body slowly started morphed as her body grew thicker and bulkier. The mare's rainbow-colored mane shortened as did her tail turning into a short stub of hair. Rainbow Dash's hooves grew thicker and bulkier. Her legs became massive with way more muscle forcing her to grow even taller. The mare squealed, seeing her chest come out as her rump stuck out and watched seeing how her cutie mark changed to that of a giant-sized zap apple printed on her rump. As the magic dissipated revealing the newly transformed blue coated stallion looking over himself with a smirk. Rainbow Dash was really impressed with how muscular he was and showing off his wings that grew out even more as he snickered, "Well it looks like you do have an obsession with Big Mac Twilight!"
Followed by more snickering the embarrassed purple-coated unicorn squeaked, "you didn't have to say that out loud!"
But as the unicorn walked around Rainbow Dash's new body, she couldn't help but see that her cocky friend was right! Rainbow Dash's body was thick and bulky like Big Mac's, and the odd cutie mark pretty much solidified her as a male pegasus clone of Big Macintosh. Twilight could only stammer, "I...I didn't mean...I was trying to copy Braeburn's physique."
Apple Boom bounced over with excitement and chimed in, "oh wow! You can be like a long lost cousin! Let's call you Zap Apple!"
Braeburn burst out into a drunken laugh and babbled, "yeah that could work...that sounds cool! That's way better than Apple Jam."
Applejack rolled his eyes, seeing Braeburn was referencing his fake name from earlier. All the while, Rainbow Dash gave a nod and threw his wings out and exclaimed, "yeah Zap Apple! That's an awesome name!"
Applejack turned towards his friend still admiring his new thick rump and commented, "yeah that's so original, but honestly most ponies are going to see right through this. I mean what are you going to say when ponies say that you look like Rainbow Dash?"
Rainbow Dash just shrugged and replied back. "Just say it's a coincidence!"
He gasped with a surprised look hearing his new voice, "holy Celestia! My voice is so deep!"
The newly transformed pegasus then took off into the night sky flying around and landed before both Applejack and Braeburn. "Now how about we have a rematch just run to the barn and back."
Applejack eyes narrowed, seeing that Rainbow Dash being so cocky about being a stallion was now starting to get on his nerves as he snapped, "oh yeah! You're on!"
They then both bent down as Apple Bloom bounced over and shouted, "Alright! Count on three! One...two...three!"
She slammed a hoof on the ground as Applejack and Rainbow Dash sped off down the field and as Applejack was running at a top speed sweating and having from his exertion. He was quite stunned seeing that Rainbow Dash was way ahead this time and as they turned around was already halfway towards the house. Applejack picked up speed and started to run so fast, slamming his hooves through the dirt. But he could do nothing as Rainbow Dash slammed back down ahead of Applejack sweating and heaving as he proclaimed, "oh yeah! I won this time!"
Rainbow Dash then turned around to see Applejack trying to break through the dirt with all fours with eyes widened and slammed right into him. They tumbled about in the dirt as Applejack somehow landed squarely on top of Rainbow Dash. They both looked over their sweaty muscular bodies, and before the two realize it, they squeaked feeling something pop out from their underbellies. They both blushed hard stepping back as fast as they could, while Braeburn burst into some more drunken laughter. "Oh wow, you two are excited! Do you two need a room!"
Twilight rolled her eyes and scolded the drunken stallion, "your drunk Braeburn just go get some sleep."
He gave a drunk nod as he stumbled back into the house as Apple Bloom yawned, "yeah, I'm going to bed too, but I want to play you better play with me tomorrow!"
She then skipped off back into the house as Twilight turned to Rainbow Dash with a sheepish smile and asked. "So...um...do you want to stay here or?"
Rainbow Dash turned to Applejack and commented, "I doubt you can hold another pony I'll stay with Twilight for the night if that's okay with you?"
The farm stallion eyed Twilight knowing now she has a thing for her brother and was unsure if Rainbow Dash's new body had to do with her wanting him to stay the night. But he also didn't have any room in his house as he turned to Twilight and replied, "alright, well just make sure everything is okay with him and no funny business, alright?"
Twilight squeaked as she shouted, "me no! Never! I'm a professional! Now come on Rainbow Dash I do need to look you over and make sure there weren't any complications."
The pegasus squeaked just as Twilight took him by the hoof and lead him off down the road like a foal.
Later that night Rainbow Dash was a bit frustrated standing silently while Twilight was using her horn to scan the stallion for any medical issues. The mare then placed the light into his eyes and saw them dilate and then pressed on Rainbow Dash's tongue and asked," say aww."
The stallion grumbled but did as Twilight asked giving a loud. "awww" and let Twilight peer down into her throat. The mare then gave a nod of approval and proclaimed. "Well, the good news is that there doesn't seem to be any medical issues with your new body."
Rainbow Dash was still irritated at being looked over like a foal and grumbled, "fine, well, I'm just glad there isn't."
He then looked at himself in a mirror on the wall and with a smirk Rainbow Dash asked, "But, seriously do you have a crush on Big Mac?"
Twilight sighed as she rubbed a hoof over her face and admitted it. "Yes I do, I have a crush on Big Mac happy now!"
The cocky pegasus just started laughing and rolling around on his back." I knew it!"
Twilight got a little flustered stomping towards her friend and shoved a hoof into his face and asked, "Now for my question, why did you really want to be a stallion?"
Rainbow Dash blushed this time laying there on his back and stammered, "I...well...I just want to see if I would still like Applejack as a stallion…"
Twilight blinked in surprise at the answer and whispered, "Really?"
Rainbow Dash looked up into the ceiling of Twilight's library and gave a long sigh before responding, "Yeah I mean..I..w...well...I do have feelings for her."
Twilight couldn't help but look down at Rainbow Dash with an unsure look and asked, "so you're challenging yourself to see if gender has to do with you liking her, is that it?"
Rainbow Dash rose up and shouted at Twilight, "no! ...well...I don't know, maybe!"
Twilight rolled her eyes as she replied, "Honestly Rainbow Dash if you like each other as females I don't see how it would be different as you both being male "
Rainbow Dash peered down at the floor with a defeated look and sighed, "yeah..well...I guess I didn't think about that."
Twilight pondered for a second before responding, "well, to be fair I'm probably not the best to talk about this...I could get you in touch with Princess Cadence; she knows a lot more about same-sex relationships than me."
Rainbow Dash blushed and stepped back stammering, "No...no...way! I don't want anypony knowing about this! Especially not the princesses!"
Twilight blushed seeing how nervous Rainbow Dash was and gave a nod as she whispered, "o..of course…"
Rainbow Dash pushed back his mane with a hoof and grumbled, "look I'm still uncomfortable talking about my feelings...and with his new body and all I'm feeling more awkward…I think I'm going to go and get some sleep.""
Twilight gave her friend a smile and whispered, "Alright, well....have a good night then."
Rainbow Dash went to Twilight's, and couch plopped down, making it creak loudly. Twilight snickered seeing how her couch strained against Rainbow Dash's new physique. The mare then took out a large blue blanket and drifted it over her friend and placed a pillow under his head. As she was about to drift the blanket over Rainbow Dash's body, but her eyes lowered down towards her friend's underbelly, but the stallion squealed shoving all four legs over his front and shouted, "hey what ya think you're doing!"
Twilight rolled her eyes and threw the blanket at the pegasus as she growled, "I was just trying to make you comfortable I'm not a pervert!"
Twilight then went about and stomped upstairs grumbling under her breath with a blush growing on her face as she did think about Rainbow Dash's penis and wondered if it was as big Macintosh's. But as the mare entered her room and started pacing around her room with a nervous expression on her face for what seemed like hours debating on telling Cadence about Rainbow Dash's and Applejack's relationship and how she could help but she didn't want to betray her friends trust either. But the unicorn made up her mind and walked to her desk. She lit a candle and slowly took out a scroll in a dramatic fashion. Twilight then with her magic, she slowly dipped a quill into an inkpot and slowly placed the quill onto the parchment as she began to wrote her letter... "Dear Princess Cadence….

chapter Six: The most emberassing contest ever
Applejack woke up the next morning and groaned while rubbing his head, being seeing to be a bit hungover from all the drinking. He was slowly getting up and grumbled under his breath. “Seriously, what was all that last night? Twilight turning Rainbow Dash into a stallion? She suddenly havin’ a crush on my brother? What is going on here!”
The grouchy stallion slowly got up and stomped to his door, and as he opened it, he was greeted to see Big Mac standing there looking worried as he asked, “I...I need to ask...if...um...if...Twilight wants to...um…”
Applejack rolled his eyes and snapped back. “Look, if you and Twilight go and have a date or somethin’ just go and ask her yourself.”
Big Mac was quite nervous and gulped as he responded, “seriously? You don’t think it’s weird?”
The mare looked over at him with a stare and growled, “You’re my older brother whatever you do with your life, it’s up to you. Now excuse me I’m going to get some breakfast.”
The farm stallion stomped down the stairs grumbling and found Apple Bloom, Granny Smith and Braeburn all sitting around the table having breakfast together. Braeburn was also clearly dealing with a migraine and was rubbing his head. Granny Smith walked over and poured him a cup of coffee as she grumbled, “just drink this trust me it’ll help.”
The stallion was rubbing his forehead and grumbled, “I can manage a migraine; this isn’t my first hangover.”
Applejack gave him a pat on the back and snickered, “Well, that’s just granny for ya. She’ll give ya a second migraine while you’re managing your other one.”
The old granny mare grabbed the stallion by the ear and yanked it down, making him squeal and stumble about. The stallion whimpered with tears running down his cheek as Granny Smith snapped, “Maybe if ya listen to me once in a while, maybe you wouldn’t be a stallion right now!”
Applejack cried out in pain. “Alright! You win! Just let go!”
The stallion’s granny let go sending Applejack to stumble backward while rubbing his ear. While Granny stomped off, Apple Bloom bounced over to him and chirped, “good morning Applejack! Are you going to hang out with Rainbow Dash today?”
The stallion shrugged and grumbled, “well, yeah, I guess?”
The filly bounced up and down in excitement. “Can I come, please!”
Applejack rolled his eyes and explained, “I’m not going to do anything crazy. Apple Bloom, we’re just going to go out and compete with some stallions that’s all.”
The little filly bounced up and down and shouted. “Oh come on that sounds like lots of fun! Can I come, please!”
Applejack rolled his eyes and scoffed, “whatever, fine follow me.”
He grumbled getting up and headed off into the streets of Ponyville, and they found Rainbow Dash already out flying around as he showed off his body to ponies who have gathered around him. Applejack glared at him as he stomped over and asked, “Hey! What do you think you’re doing R- I mean Zap Apple!”
The stallion flew down and landed right next to Applejack and slapped him on the back as he proclaimed, “Hey, I bet you all met my new and improved cousin Applejack! Now she’s a tough stallion like me!”
Everypony snickered as Applejack shoved Rainbow Dash off him and grumbled,” yeah whatever, it’s not like me being a stallion makes me better, now what ya doin? I thought I told ya I didn’t wana make a scene.”
Rainbow Dash stepped back and rolled her eyes and scoffed, “I’m just doing what you wanted we’re going to have a challenge with the toughest stallions around!”
Bulk Biceps flexed his muscles and growled, “oh yeah! I bet none of you could lift as much as me!”
Applejack eyed him as Rainbow Dash threw down a giant bar with two massive hundred-pound weights at each end on the ground with a loud boom and shouted, “Alright let’s see how much you can lift!”
Bulk Biceps took the massive dumbbell and heaved and grunted and lifted it up with one hoof and growled, “oh yeah! I bet you can’t do this!”
Applejack glared at the buff pegasus and took the dumbbell with both hooved and grunting and heaving heavily he went on his back legs and shoved the weight above his head. Applejack heaved heavily, but many ponies started giggling and smirking as she jeered, “looks like someone’s happy.”
The other ponies around started to laugh even more as Applejack gave his friend a cold glare before slamming the weight on the ground right in front of Rainbow Dash who squealed and stumbled backward. The Farm stallion scoffed, “now you go on and try it, cousin.”
Everypony gaped in surprise, and even Bulk Biceps had his mouth agape in complete awe. Rainbow Dash burst into laughter and flew over and gave the hunk of an earth pony a noogy dubbing his hoof over his shortened mane. “That’s Applejack! Even as a mare, she was the toughest pony I’ve ever known.”
Applejack threw Rainbow Dash off and snapped. “Oh yeah, well how about you go and try Zap Apple.”
Rainbow Dash gave Applejack a smug grin and replied back. “Oh yeah, this is gonna be a piece of cake.”
The overconfident stallion couldn’t help but pick up the massive weight up and threw it straight in the air everypony gasped as he flew up and caught the weight with a single hoof and slammed back on the ground still holding the weight. Everypony’s mouth was agape in complete awe at “Zap Apple’s” strength as he grunted as he threw the hunk of metal onto the ground with a loud crash and shouted, “There! How’s that!”
Everypony started giving thunderous applause. Applejack burst into more laughter and cane over. “Dang Zap Apple your quite stunning. I guess ya win the strong mare contest.”
Just then an old dark brown coated stallion slowly came over with a smirk on his face walking up to the ponies and commented, “well now I see that this Zap Apple is quite strong. But I want to see if he truly has the Apple family genes and can run as well.”
Rainbow Dash shouted, “seriously! I can beat you at anything, any day of the week old-timer bring it on!”
The stallion chuckled coming over. “So how about we race to the train station and back? I saw you two yesterday, and I bet I could take both of you on.”
Rainbow Dash scoffed walking over with a strut. “Oh yeah, that’s a lot coming from you old-timer.”
Applejack gulped and was sweating a little she was quite nervous knowing Burnt Oak was actually quite fast and was once the quickest pony in Ponyville. The two stallions both bent down with the old stallion as dozens of ponies began crowding around them with the crowd grew bigger all watching wanting to see what’s going to happen. They then all turned to see that Pinkie Pie bounced over with a big smile on her face as she squeaked, “Oh, can I be the one to say go!”
Applejack chuckled and gave a nod. “Yeah go ahead Pinkie.”
The pink earth pony raised a black and white checkered flag and shouted, “now, let’s have the race begin on Go! Ready!”
All three stallions bent their forelegs forward and their back legs back ready to sprint at full speed. Pinkie continued, “Set!”
The three looked forward, and Pinkie pie with a big smile on her face exclaimed suddenly. “Go!”
The three stallions then took off bursting down the road, and they continued to race down the road at top speeds huffing and panting. As they ran, Applejack was quite surprised seeing Burnt Oak was quite far ahead of them. Rainbow Dash was racing at her top speed huffing and panting just to catch up. But they were no match for Burnt Oak and as they were racing back to the statue.
Rainbow Dash groaned as Burnt Oak made it before them and turned back with a smirk on his face. “It looks like you two need practice.”
The competitive pegasus stomped a hoof on the ground and shouted. “Seriously! ’It’s not my fault if I was an M-”
Applejack slammed a hoof into Rainbow Dash’s mouth with a blush as she replied, “yeah, um...my cousin needs to practice running more than flying. That’s what he meant.”
Rainbow Dash scoffed as Burnt Oak scratched his chin. “Huh, now that ya mention it I don’t recall a pegasus being in Bright Mac’s family.”
The pegasus blushed and scratched his rainbow-colored mane. “W...well I’m from a second cousin removed ya know how crazy them family trees can be,”
Burnt Oak shrugged as he grumbled, “well in any case it seems only Bright Mac is still the only one who could beat me in a race.”
Rainbow Dash burst steam from his nostrils and pounded the ground with a hoof. “Oh yeah! I want a rematch! Right now old timer bring it on!”
Applejack rolled his eyes and grabbed Rainbow Dash by the shoulder before he did anything else and advised. “ It’s over, now how about we calm down and get something to eat.”
Rainbow Dash turned his head around and snapped back. “Oh yeah! well, I may not be as fast on my hooves, but I can beat anypony at flying!”
Thunderhooves came out of nowhere and landed next to Rainbow Dash and shouted, “Oh yeah! Well, how about it! It seems I have to race this newbie.”
Rainbow Dash shouted back. “Hey! Just because I’m the newbie doesn’t mean I’m going to lose to a stinking Stallion like you!”
He smirked and asked, “so how about we race to Cloudsdale and back.”
Rainbow Dash stuck a hoof into the stallion’s face. “Oh yeah, ’you’re on Thunderbrain!”
The two bent down and lowered their heads as they readied themselves. Pinkie Pie bounced over with a smile on her face and proclaimed, “Alrighty you know the drill! Now yall ready for the greatest flying rest in equestria!”
They both gave nods and readied themselves as Pinkie Pie raised a flag. “Ready!”
The two stallions both gave each other dirty looks before facing Cloudsdale.
Pinkie Pie then chirped out. “Set!”
They both flexed their wings and arched their backs. As Pinkie Pie watched with intensity feeling the tension building. “Go!”
As soon as she lowered the flag, the two zoomed past her at a blinding speed, and the crowd of ponies cheered as if they were at a wonderbolts show.
The two continued zooming through the skies at top speed seeming to go on for only a few seconds. But Rainbow Dash was heaving heavily as they were flying back she noticed that Thunderlane was catching up, so she dove down at top speed trying to make it to the end and squeaked as she slammed into Thunderlane. They were then bot flung to the ground below in a giant boom. They both groaned slowly shaking their heads inside the crater they created in the middle of Ponyville. As Rainbow Dash’s vision came around, she gasped seeing that Thunderlane was over her body and was blushing hard. Rainbow Dash’s eyes suddenly went wide and crossed her back legs over her underbelly knowing full well Thunderlane saw his dick. Many ponies around were laughing as the two embarrassed pegasi quickly got up from the crater. Applejack slowly walked over to his friend and gave Rainbow Dash a pat on the back. “Hey, no need to be shy. I bet Thunderlane was quite happy too.”
More ponies burst into even more fits of laughter with Rainbow Dash growing furious as her face turned a bright red and the stallion quickly sped off into the sky as quickly as possible. Applejack groaned seeing that he may have made things worse for his friend and promptly ran down the street after him.
Applejack ran down the streets of Ponyville until she found Rainbow Dash was now sitting on a bench looking quite flustered and embarrassed. Applejack slowly came over and asked in an apologetic tone. “Hey, are you doing ok? I didn’t mean to sound rude back there it was just a joke.”
Rainbow Dash got up and stomped a hoof. “Your joke isn’t the issue! I just had a boner in front of Everypony!”
Applejack chuckled, “Hey, it’s not that bad as far as everypony knows your my cousin Zap Apple so Rainbow Dash has nothing to be embarrassed about. I have to say you do have a nice member.”
Rainbow Dash blushed as she placed her tail self consciously between her legs. “Oh please, you know its really Big Mac’s dick pervert.”
Applejack chuckled as he sat down next to Rainbow Dash making the bench creak under their combined weight and whispered, “so hey at least you beat Thunderlane even with all that muscle your still the best flier in Ponyville.
The pegasus scoffed “well you’re obviously better at running than me. I’m not going to even try to deny it anymore.”
Applejack chuckled as he rubbed a hoof through his friend’s mane. “Well, you do look great in that new body and honestly watching you fly made me hard.”
Rainbow Dash whimpered as he crossed his hooves over his crotch, feeling his own member rise and cried out. “Don’t say that! you’re making things worse!”
Applejack came over slowly. “why not!? you obviously like these new forms, and I’m tired of us being so nervous about our feelings.”
Rainbow Dash turned towards Applejack and protested, “I’m not scared! I just-”
Before he could finish Applejack threw himself over Rainbow Dash And kissed him, and he blushed so hard his face turned a deep red. They held the kiss for a while as they both broke off. Rainbow Dash quickly flew off to Twilight’s library. While Applejack stood there with a smirk growing on his face.
Chapter Seven: AJ's and RD's First Date
Applejack was quite concerned that Rainbow Dash flew off without any warning and he wasn't sure on what to do or how he would try to make him finally get him to open up with his emotions. Applejack ears flicked hearing clopping nearby and spotted Twilight was skipping down the street with a smile on her face as she came to tell her friend some good news. "Applejack...I just got word from Celestia that she has found a cure for your predicament."
The stallion would have been ecstatic about hearing the news a week ago was now quite nervous as he gulped and asked, "well... that's good to hear...but Um...I think I'm gonna hold off becoming a mare again for a little longer."
Twilight was quite stunned at the response, and she asked, "But why? I would assume you would want to turn back to normal as soon as possible."
Applejack turned around and responded. "I do...But there's somethin' between Rainbow Dash, and I need to know if she likes me as a mare or a stallion."
The unicorn mare rolled her eyes and snapped, "seriously your still going on about that."
Applejack sighed as he scratched the dirt with a hoof. "It's hard to explain but Rainbow Dash maybe more interested in me as a stallion. If that's the case…"
Twilight eyed her friend and responded quite curtly. "So what you're saying is that if you think Rainbow Dash likes you more as a stallion, you'll stay like this forever!"
The earth pony mare shrugged as he looked up. "Yeah, I mean...I've had feelings for Rainbow Dash for a long time. But I never had the courage to tell her… To be honest, I'm not sure if she ever had feelings for me before I transformed."
Twilight stomped a hoof and shouted, "why don't you go and just have a date with her! Honestly, you and Rainbow Dash are so stubborn it makes my head spin!"
Applejack blushed seeing that Twilight had a point and responded, "well...I guess that sounds like..um a good idea."
The unicorn mare rolled her eyes and grumbled, "how about this, I'll get Fluttershy to go tell her to meet you at the restaurant at six tonight."
Applejack's face turned a deep red, and she whimpered, "so, to..tonight! that's only a few hours from now!"
The unicorn bit Applejack on the ear just like Granny Smith would be making him cry and kick about like a colt as she growled, "just come on and get showered and then were going to Rarity's to get a new outfit. Your going to have a date with rainbow Dash then maybe you can finally stop acting so crazy."
Applejack squealed out. "Alright! Alright! I'll stop!" As the earth pony, he kicked about and was lead along by Twilight straight to Carousel Boutique.
A few hours had passed as Applejack was in Rarity Boutique in a full tuxedo and his mane was combed back and slicked with oil and cream. He was now wearing fancy cow colt boots and a black cow colt hat with gold frills. He was standing in front of a mirror looking like a handsome stallion not unlike Prince Blueblood. The stallion looked at the mirror with a cold gaze hating his new outfit and grumbled, "ugh...I look so stupid."
Rarity slowly strode over eyeing Applejack in his dashing new outfit and blushed a little as she actually saw that he was quite handsome."Oh you look dashing Applejack. If you weren't going out with Rainbow Dash, I would ask you out myself."
Applejack blushed as he turned towards Rarity with a smile and whispered, "you really mean that?"
The white-coated mare brushed Applejack's mane and cooed, "yes I do darling."
Then as if out of nowhere Applejack burst into tears and collapsed on the ground with rivers of tears streaming down his face. Rarity was quite moved as the stallion began to sob and cry. "I...I know this is awkward. But I couldnt't help myself there's so many things running through my head."
Rarity sat down with Applejack and slowly petted her mane and whispered, "of course darling I understand that this has been a emotional time for you."
Applejack turned towards her friend with her tear strickened face and whispered nervously. "D...do you really think Rainbow Dash loves me?"
Rarity stood up on all fours and threw her mane back and scoffed, "Seriously Applejack how could you ask such a stupid question."
Applejack quivered and was goong to cry even more when Rarity wrapped her hooves around her friend's massive torso and squealed, "of course she loves you darling! Its about time you two finally confessed your feelings for each other."
The Stallion suddenly stopped crying and slowly wioed her face with a hoof as she whispered, "do you really mean that?"
Rarity produced a handkerchief and slowly wiped Applejack's face removing the rest of her friend's tears and cooed, "of course darling it's so obvious you two had it in for each other."
Applejack was blushing as he thought on who else may think or know that he and Rainbow Dash like each other but his thoughts were interrupted as Rarity began pushing Applejack's rump towards the front doors of her boutique and exclaimed, "Now stop your whining and crying! Go out there and confess your love to Rainbow Dash!"
Applejack chuckled with a blush on his face as he was pushed out the doors and turned to Rarity who was giving him a big beautiful smile and whispered, "Thank you."
The mare waved a hoof and cooed, "It's no problem darling. Now go on its rude to keep your date waiting."
The big farm stallion gave a deep exasperated sighand slowly began his way towards the restaurant in the middle of town. He walked along and eventually made it to the restaurant and gasped upon seeing Rainbow Dash also wearing a fancy tuxedo with his rainbow mane and tail combed and slicked back as well. The pegasus blushed looking upon how Applejack was also dressed up in a similar stunning tuxedo and stammered, "so..I.I guess... you're here for our date."
Applejack gulped as he slowly walked to the chair and sat across from Rainbow Dash. Both were blushing as they took their menus and buried their muzzles in them. The waiter, a silver-coated unicorn with a glossy black mane and dashing blue eyes, eventually came by and asked, "Hello, My name is Fancy Napkin what may I start you with we have a good selection of wines?"
Applejack blushed and replied, "Do you have any of that imported Apple beer that Braeburn brought in?"
The waited gave a small nod and responded, "Yeah, I believe we do."
Rainbow Dash, who was sweating profusely and shaking her menu with a nervous disposition, whispered, "Yeah, I would like an apple beer as well just keep them coming."
The waiter wrote down the orders and turned his attention to Applejack and asked, "What you like any appetizers?"
Applejack snapped the menu shut and grumbled, "Just a plate of apple salad, please."
Rainbow Dash threw it down and sighed, "just give me a veggie burger and hay fries."
The waiter took the menus and gave a nod. "Well, then I will have your orders out as soon as possible."
The stallion gave a bow and left the two stallions to turn to each other still blushing and feeling embarrassed. Applejack gulped and asked, "so...I...Um...I need to ask...do you care if I'm a stallion or a mare?"
Rainbow Dash was quite embarrassed as she quivered and responded, "I...I have to admit your new body make...makes me well you know…"
The pegasus crossed his back legs over his underbelly, and Applejack responded, "yeah, your body does make me horny too."
Rainbow Dash squeaked at the word and shouted. "Why would you say that! Honestly, this is embarrassing enough as it is!"
Applejack snickered as the waiter came back with their food and beer. As they began to eat their meal, the silence fell between the two, they continued to eat for some time, and it seemed things were going well. But Applejack noticed that Rainbow Dash was avoiding his question and asked again. "So, do you prefer me as a mare or a stallion honestly."
The pegasus chugged down his entire bottle of beer. After that, he placed it down and sighed, "Look...I...I don't really care."
Applejack eyed him and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Rainbow Dash looked up and replied, "I...I think I'm bi...I mean maybe it's just you, but I don't care if you were a stallion or a mare...I think your hot either way."
Applejack was quite surprised by what she said and a little irritable as he snapped on a forkful fruit salad and Rainbow Dash was chugging down another bottle of apple beer. Applejack who was getting irritated as Rainbow Dash continued to dodge his question and snapped, "that doesn't answer my question do you want me to stay as a stallion or not."
Rainbow Dash paused as he slowly chugged down a third beer and when he stopped. The stallion responded, "I...I think...well...I would rather we be mares again."
Applejack looked up as Rainbow Dash flexed a giant foreleg. "As much as I'm starting to like this new body, what would it change honestly? We would be the same…"
Applejack chuckled as he sipped his beer and watched Rainbow Dash chug down his fourth. He slammed the bottle down and slowly turned around and snapped, "Honestly! you think I loved you only because you were transformed into a stallion!"
Applejack was quite surprised as Rainbow Dash continued, "you think I was that shallow! I loved you ever since we went and fought Nightmare moon together! When you risked your life to rescue Twilight, and you trusted me to save her!"
Applejack was a bit confused as she placed the beer down and whispered, "w...wait, are you serious?"
Rainbow Dash started shouting, "that was the first time you ever acknowledge me! I loved her for years and for some reason we nev...we never… we only ever saw each other as rivals until that day...since then…" He looked down at the ground seething with anger.
Applejack was beyond surprised at Rainbow Dash's unchecked emotions and was unsure of anything. The stallion slowly whispered, "I...I felt that way for a while as well...I n..never thought you had those feelings for me either...I guess we both were too scared to ever show our emotions until now."
Rainbow Dash and Applejack looked at each other and then burst into even more laughter. The pegasus chugged down a fifth beer and then placed a bag of bits on the table. "There I paid for both our meals now you have to be the mare."
Applejack burst into more laughter as he chugged down another beer, and then he slammed it down and got up and shouted, "Well! I guess by tomorrow I'll be a mare! And maybe we'll be truly mare friends!"
Rainbow Dash snickered as she took another bottle of beer and drank it down and whispered under her breath. "Yeah...I guess you're right, I'll be a mare again too…" They then both got up together, and both stumbled off in a drunken gait heading straight to Twilight's library together.
It was a few hours later as both a drunken Applejack and Rainbow Dash stumbling about in now their wrinkled and beer-stained tuxedos towards Twilight's library. They were both quite drunk as Rainbow Dash hiccuped, "we.. weren't we supposed to see Twilight or somthin'?"
Applejack stumbling about laughed, "yeah, guess we accidentally hit the bar first...ugh I had like ten beers."
Rainbow Dash burst into rancorous laughter and slammed a hoof on Applejack's back and shouted, "well with this new body I was able to chug down twenty beers!"
Applejack snickered, "dang you put my brother to shame I don't think he can drink fifteen beers before getting completely wasted."
They continued onward and started pounded their hooves on the door and shouting, "Twilight open up!"
Rainbow Dash gave a loud shout, "Come on Twilight, we wana be mares again!"
The groggy and tired looking unicorn opened the door to see the two was quite tired and irritable at the fact that both Applejack and Rainbow Dash were both quite drunk and grumbled, "well, it seems you two couldn't be bothered to wait until tomorrow morning to perform the spell."
The drunken pegasus stumbled to Twilight and snickered, "well we were gonna see you earlier but...well...we hit the bar after our date."
The unicorn's eye twitched as she stomped a hoof and shouted," Seriously! Then why didn't you two just sleep it out and come tomorrow! Do you have any idea what time it is!"
Applejack laughed out as he scratched the back of his mane and mumbled, "Yeah. Sorry, I guess we did lose track of time."
The pegasus chuckled, "yeah...I guess that makes sense…"
Twilight just rubbed her forehead with a hoof and grumbled, "just come on! The sooner I get you, two morons, back into mares, the better!"
She lifted the two drunk stallions with her magic and drifted them onto her couch. Twilight then went about reading the spellbook she was given to by Celestia and was grumbling under her breath, The mare gave a nod and whispered, "alright everything's in order I'm going to reverse the spell."
Rainbow Dash kicked about and laughed and hiccuped. "Yeah, I think we're ready t...to be mares."
Applejack shrugged as he turned around and asked. "yeah, I don't really know. The question is are you ready...soon your only going to have Big Mac for eye candy."
Rainbow Dash burst out into a fit of laughter kicking about with his giant hooves kicking things about as Twilight glared at the two stallions. "Alright, well get ready to be neutered!"
She sent out purple tendrils of magic and wrapped them around the two and slowly transformed them. They morphed and their bodies slimmed down, their manes grew out their thickly shaped faces rounded and shortened the mares cried in pain as their bones snapped and shrunk but soon as the magic faded Rainbow Dash and Applejack were both still drunk laying down on her couch but now back as mares. Twilight sighed and shook her head. "Honestly you two had to just get drunk tonight, well you can both crash here for the night."
She then took out some pillows and blankets and fluttered them over with her magic making sure the two were comfortable. "There, now you get some sleep your bodies are going to need to readjust."
Rainbow Dash was already snoring, but Applejack, who was quite groggy, slowly lifted her eyes and whispered "thanks, T...Twilight also one more thing Big Mac really wants to go on a date with you."
The unicorn squeaked out at the sudden outburst and stepped back. "Uh...uh...yeah...Well, let's talk about that tomorrow, alright!"
Applejack chuckled and snuggled under the blankets and giggled, "sure thing Twilight."
The unicorn quickly ran up the stairs to get back to sleep. Applejack hugged Rainbow and held her close brushing her mane and was surprised that Rainbow Dash snuggled back into her whispering, "hold me Applejack... do...don't let go…"
Applejack smiled down at her friend and held her close into her hooves as they fell into a deep sleep.
Prolouge: A casualty of the Magic Duel
Applejack woke up one morning to a pounding headache, in fact, it wasn’t just her head her entire body felt as if she just ran for a dozen miles with no food or water. As Applejack slowly woke up, she found herself staring up at bright lights coming down and white ceiling and walls, seeing she was in a hospital. The mare looked down at the green sheets covering her body and a stand with jello, a cup of orange juice and some instant oatmeal for breakfast. The mare was confused seeing she couldn’t recall being injured in any way...but Twilight and that obnoxious unicorn Trixie recently had that magic duel between each other. Did they stop Trixie? Could she have been injured from that battle? The mare the shifted in her hospital bed feeling more massive than usual and saw Nurse Redheart hovering over her. The mare Nurse Redheart slowly came over and whispered, ”hey take it, easy dear, you just went through a lot.”
Applejack moved her head up so she could look the nurse in the eye. But it felt odd as if the weight was added to her face or something. She was going to ask the nurse why she was in the hospital. But the nurse placed a hoof on her mouth. “Don’t speak, just listen to me closely you were involved in a magical accident resulting from the battle Trixie and Twilight had yesterday.”
Applejack was still confused and now slightly irritated as she wanted to ask what happened and why she was in the hospital. But Red Heart just continued, “the thing is Twilight, has reassured me this may be just temporary considering the spell is very weak but….the spell she used has altered you in a very peculiar way, and I had to make sure that nothing medically was wrong with you.”
Applejack was now worried, and she shouted, “medically! Seriously what am I doing here?! What happened to me!”
The mare gasped upon hearing her voice which sounded much deeper than usual sounding more like her brother’s. Which made her drift a hoof to her throat as she whispered, “Ma….my voice...why does it sound like my brother?”
Applejack then took out a hoof and saw it was thicker with muscle with some hairs from her coat coming over the hoof itself. She then looked down to see that she had a broad torso which was well toned with the rest of her body covered in a light green blanket. The nurse sighed seeing the farm mare trembling and came over as she explained in a reassuring tone. “Applejack, you need to understand that this is temporary and so far everything is fine besides the gender change, that’s the important thing.”
Applejack paused for a few moments before she just whispered, “ha...hand me a mirror.”
Nurse Red Heart shook her head and replied, “Applejack, I really don’t think that’s a good idea.”
Applejack turned towards the nurse and shouted. “Just give me a bucking mirror!”
Red Heart gave an exasperated sigh as she held out a small mirror and Applejack took it and stared back at her now giant face with a colossal jawline and her shortened straightened mane, the mare was horrified at what she saw. The mare then gulped looking back down at the green hospital blanket. She slowly placed a hoof between the sheets and felt along with new organ between her legs. She whispered,” do...do I really have a..a...”
Red Heart gave a sigh and replied bluntly. ”yes you have a penis, it’s healthy, and there are no issues with it all.”
A blush grew over the stallion’s face as he glared at the nurse and shouted, “seriously! like I need to know that!”
Red Heart who was getting annoyed just replied, “look, I know you're in shock and need time to adjust. But, your also healthy and in no need of any medical attention and I have to check on my other patients. If you need anything just call out, okay?”
The stallion slumped back onto her pillow and grumbled in an angry tone.“Yeah, whatever?”
The nurse then simply left off as Applejack just stared at the ceiling as she then slowly went into a deep sleep.
Yestarday
Applejack was extremely nervous as Twilight called her and Rarity to be volunteers for her fake spells. The two mares both gave each other worried looks as they knew his whole ploy was to trick Trixie into thinking Twilight was more powerful with her fake amulet. One misstep can undo everything and have Twilight banished from for good. The two mares without talking to each other then slowly walked over to the middle of the area where Twilight and Trixie were performing their spells. Twilight shot out her magic at them creating a cloud of pink covered the two. They were then teleported inside a tent. Applejack blushed upon seeing her brother painted over looking like a stallion version of herself. She then whispered, “um...you ready for your part?"
Big Mac gave a pose and smirked as he gave a simple, “ey' yup!”
Applejack gave a small nervous nod. But the farm mare didn't have much time to think as she and Rarity were then teleported back to the middle of Ponyville. Then Twilight shot spell after spell, making it look like she turned Rarity into a filly, then Applejack into an old mare. They were soon turned back to “normal” with Rarity giving a small sigh of relief seeing Trixie was quite flustered meaning that their plan was working. Applejack giggled as well seeing Twilight continued with using her fake magic on Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash. She gulped and nervously shifted in place as Trixie and Twilight continued their duel knowing her turn would be coming up.
All the while Big Mac looked over his disguise ready to go out and make it look like that Twilight transformed Applejack into a stallion. He gave a nod, “ey' yup, this gonna be good.”
The stallion was determined to help his sister and her friends to remove Trixie from her seat of power. As the stallion was going to show off upon hearing Twilight shout. “Watch as I change a mare into a stallion!”
Applejack was nervous as she looked over to her friend Twilight readying another spell and hit Applejack with a poof of a pink cloud. The mare groaned in pain, as the magic enveloped her body feeling it shift as her it bulked up. The bones in her face morphed, and her legs grew thicker and bulkier. She cried out in pain as her lower body changed feeling a burning sensation down in her underbelly. What seemed an agonizing few minutes was really only a second or two. As she blinked looking around the crowd, with a confused look at many ponies looked upon her with their mouths agape with astonishment. Applejack turned to Twilight with blush and asked, “did it work?”
She squealed as she placed hoof to her throat. “My voice! Why do I sound like Big Mac?”
Trixie's eyes widened with disbelief, “A stallion! You actually changed the gender of a pony! That’s it! The great and powerful Trixie must have that amulet!”
She then removed the alicorn amulet and as Trixie started to revert to her old self. Twilight just burst into laughter and explained, “Applejack didn’t turn into a stallion silly! That’s just Big Mac in disguise!”
Everypony turned and burst into laughter, but it all died down as Big Mac still in his disguise slowly walked over and asked, “uh…no I’m right here? What’s going on? Did you replace me or something’?”
They all then turned their eyes to Applejack who backed up as Twilight's eyes widen, and she exclaimed, “no…no way! I actually turned Applejack into a stallion!” Applejack gave a few blinks before she fainted onto the dirt below.
Applejack woke up in a cold sweat late in the evening as she turned to see all of her friends and family were in the hospital room surrounding her bed. Everypony was blushing, and most were unsure of what to say. Big Mac was the first to speak up as he joked. “Well, it looks like we have another colt in the family. It’s about time.”
Applejack shouted, “oh shut it, Big Mac! I ain’t no stallion! Even if I am one, I’m a mare at heart!”
Granny Smith came over and took out one of the mare’s hooves and looked her over as she replied, “Yep, she has the Apple family male genes alright. I would even go as far and say you were Big Mac’s twin.”
Apple Bloom was extremely excited as she bounced around and shouted, “this is so cool! I have two brothers now!”
Pinkie Pie bounced along with Apple Bloom cheering along with her. “Yay! Now I can have a party for Applejack! We should call it happy stallion changing day!”
Applejack looked down at her little sister, and Pinkie Pie then growled, “this is only temporary you guys! Seriously can you all just leave me alone!”
They all gave each other nervous looks as Rarity was blushing a little seeing Applejack in her new hot body. As the mare whispered, “ Oh darling, we just came to support you.”
Fluttershy gave a nod as she whispered,” yes we are, we're here if you need anything at all."
Rainbow Dash couldn’t help but blush a little as well seeing her best friend was now a stallion as she stammered, “yeah...um...I mean your a hero? You pretty much convinced Trixie to remove the alicorn amulet.”
Applejack laid back in her bed as she grumbled, “I appreciate all of you coming here. But honestly, I just want to be alone right now.”
Everypony gave each other nervous glances, and They all walked out of the room except for Twilight. She then slowly came over towards Applejack who was still glaring at her as she whispered, ”hey Applejack.”
Applejack stared at twilight and growled, “so you're the one who turned me into a stallion? How in the buck did that happen!”
Twilight looked down as she explained, ”I’m not sure? But I might have tapped into a spell that I once tried to learn. I thought it was too advanced for me and it would never work. But luckily I learned it should be temporary maybe two weeks to a month at the most.”
Applejack shouted, “a month! I can’t be a bucking stallion for a month!”
Twilight looked down with a saddened expression on her face as she whispered, “I know, and I'm really sorry for what happened…”
Applejack seeing how depressed twilight looked just sighed, “fine I forgive you but seriously! This is going to be just weird! I don't know anything about being a stallion!”
Twilight looked up and asked, ”why don't you ask your big brother to help you?”
Applejack shouted “he's the last pony in Equestria I want to help me! He’s never going to let to get let his one go as far as I live! That's the last thing I need is him embarrassin’ me more!”
Twilight blushed and whispered, “right well...um...I mean there are dozens of stallions in Ponyville that can give you a few lessons on what to expect as a male.”
Applejack just slumped down and grumbled, “forget it Twilight, I'll figure it out on my own. But when this is over, and I'm back as a mare, you gonna owe me big time!”
Twilight blushed and raised a hoof “alright then. I'll find a way to make this up to you I promise.”
Applejack grumbled she fell back down on her pillow and looked up in the darkness of her room trying to fall back to sleep.
