Alicorn gunslinger

A week had gone by after I left the stallion with Mac and the family. I buried him out back behind the barn making the grave with stones which surprised the family. Applebloom hadn't given me my hat and was wearing it around as Applejack wore hers. I had saving going, and I decided to do something to take a step forward in our relationship. I had Rarity make us some clothes without Applejack knowing about what I was having made. Rarity made me a standard suit and tie, which I liked. Rarity made a black dress from silk for Applejack with a cut going up the side and would show her right leg if she was to wear it. Three red apples were on the other side of the dress, but I didn't know why. I paid her for them much to her annoyance, but silk wasn't cheap by any means. I walked downtown to the best restaurant in town. I got there and walked in, then was noticed right away. I knew I was something rare, and anytime I went somewhere, Ponies watched as I moved around the town. I walked up to a mare standing behind a counter as she looked down at a list. "Miss a moment please."

"One second, please."

I waited then she looked up at me and her eyes shrink. I smiled as I pulled out a large bag of bits then set them down on the counter top. "I need to make a reservation for tomorrow night for me and my mare." She quickly nodded, then pointed to the bag.

"A reservation for tomorrow I'll see to it and would you like to go ahead and pay as well?"

"How much does it cost?"

"Well, all the meals are twenty bits per pony, but they are five-course meals, you'll get your bits worth. Drinks are free unless you want wine or cider with your meals. Your table will be ready by six pm."

I nodded then counted out the bits and left a five bits tip for her, which she thanked me for before I left. When I got back to the farm, I walked into my loft then hid the two outfits.

(the dress)

"Ding Ding!"

I heard the dinner bell ring, and I walked down the steps then headed to the house. I walked into the house and saw Applebloom sitting in the kitchen with my hat. I slowly walked up behind her, then snatched my hat back. She gasped then looked back up at me with a smile on my face. She frowned up at me as I put it back on my head. I sat down in the chair beside Applejack as she made Applebloom's plate. Mac walked in a few minutes later, and I stood up. I nodded for him to follow me for a second before he sat down. He followed me out into the living room. I looked back to see if they were looking in. I looked at him a little worry on my face as I looked at him. "Macintosh I'm going to ask you first as I should. I want to take Applejack out on a date." He looked at me, surprise on his face as he looked at me then smiled.

"Ha, I wondered when you were going to take her out but."

He grabbed my shirt at the collar then got in my face.

"You touch her without a ring on her finger then I kick you so hard you'll never stop feeling. We clear?"

I nodded my head, and he smiled then let my shirt go. I gulped as I looked at him while I rubbed my neck as I looked at his back. I walked back into the kitchen, and we had a good dinner. Applejack rested into my side as I sat with her, Applebloom making kissing noises as she looked at us. Mac laughed then picked up a fork then stabbed it into the piece of pie on his plate. I looked away from him, and when dinner finished, I took my turn to clean the dishes as I washed them orange arms wrapped around my chest. I smiled as I felt Applejack rubbed her face into my wings.

"Where you take off to earlier Jack?"

I smiled as I dried the last plate. "Oh, not much but I need to ask you something." I finished the dish then turned in her hold and looked down at those gorgeous green eyes. She smiled as she put her chin on my chest as she looked at me. "Would you like to go out for dinner with me tomorrow night at that fancy place in town?" Applejack looked at me, and her eyes widened as she looked up at me.

"R-really?"

I smiled as I looked at her then she let out a girlish scream then jumped up and wrapped her arms around my neck. Once she let me go, she rushed off to her room to try and find something to wear. I left for my loft and laid down with a book on this country's history. As I read a knocking came from the door, and I looked up at the door. "Come in." A second later, Applejack walked in her head, hung low as she stood there.

"I-I don't have anything to wear for a restaurant like that."

She looked at me a few tears in her eyes. I smiled then pointed over behind the door. She walked in then saw the dress and suit. She smiled as she ran over and grabbed the dress as then looked at it.

"This is Rarity's work, and is this silk?!"

She looked at me a shocked look on her face as she looked at me. I smiled as I looked at her, and she gave me a broad smile then walked over a gave me a quick kiss before run off to try the dress on. I laughed a little as I watched her go like a happy school girl. I didn't bother closing the door guessing she'd come back sooner or later. Half an hour later, I heard hoofs on the steps and slightly looked over the top of the book. I dropped the book as I looked at her. Applejack had her mane pulled back and had it in a bun with a golden neckless around her neck. The dress fit her like a glove and had on red lipstick. With red something like Celestia was wearing. "Good god."

"I take it you like the dress on me?"

I nodded dumbly as she smiled then walked over to me, swaying in her hips. I blinked as I looked at her a faint blush on my face. She leaned down in front of me, and I saw her breast were almost falling out of the dress when she leaned over. She kissed my nose then walked out of the room me watching her go. Her rear was excellent, and it bounced a little with every step she took. When she was gone, I slammed my head into the wall to clear my mind. "God damn it!" I hit my head a few more time my horn tip scratching the wood as I hit my head. I whipped the lips stick off my nose then laid down for the night.

Jack dream pov

I walked down the rows of Apple trees with Applejack. I laughed as we walked, and a little earth pony filly ran out from behind us with an older Applebloom close behind her. The filly had the same fur color as me with Applejack's hair color. I saw her eyes were the same as Applejack when she ran up to me.

"Daddy pick me up!"

I smiled then grabbed her by her underarms and lifted her. I smiled as I hugged her as Apple wrapped her arms around us and kissed the filly on the cheek. I smiled then we started to walk again. We walked out to the rows of trees and headed up to the house. I was her friends waiting with Mac and the rest of the Apple family.

"Come on y'all it's time to eat!"

I smiled as I smelled Apple pie and stew cooking.

"JACK!"

I jumped the drew one of my left gun as I turned and saw both Luna and Celestia standing behind us. I gritted my teeth as I looked at them. "GET LOST!" Luna horn glowed then everything turned black, and my daughter and Applejack vanished along with everyone else. I looked around my gun was gone, and I clenched my fist. "Bring back my family!"

"They're not real this is a dream!"

I started to walk up to them, but they didn't back down. When I was right in front of them, I grabbed both of them by their dresses. "Listen to me," I growled with every word as I looked at them. "You come near her or this family, and I'll kill everything you love you understand me?" They smiled then laughed a little.

"Trust us, Jack, before it's over, you'll be with us, and we'll have a great life J..."

I slammed my fist into her mouth as hard as I could. Her head flew back blood in the air as she fell back. A flash of white light covered me.

Jack awake pov

I shot up in bed a cold sweat covering my body. I grabbed my guns then rushed down the steps while I put the belt on. I ran out into the front yard, looking around. I didn't see anyone around but I knew they were planning something and I wasn't going to have it. I took a walk around the whole farm, checking everything, and everywhere anyone could hide or set a trap. Two hours passed as looked around the farm for anything. I started to walk back when the sun began to come up. While I walked up to the house, I saw Applejack walking out of the barn. She had my hat in hand and was looking around the yard. "Applejack!" She looked up and saw me coming out of the fields.

"Jack!"

She ran up to me then jumped into my chest and hugged me. I held her in my arms a smile on my face as she rubbed her head on my lower chest. I ran a hand down the back of her head.

"I thought you left Jack. I found your room empty with us your hat in there I got scared you left."

I laughed as I ran my fingers throw her mane as she held onto me. "Why would I leave my mane behind?" She looked up at me a teary smile on her face. I pushed her hat off the top of her head then took my hat from her hat then put in on her head. She smiled up at me then got on her hoof tips getting midway my chest. I leaned down, then kissed her softly as she wrapped her arms around my neck. Someone cleared their throat, and we broke the kiss then looked over to the right quickly. Mac stood over by the front door to the farmhouse.

"Breakfast is getting cold and Jack, what did I say?"

I let Applejack go, but she didn't let go of my neck. "Please Applejack." She looked at me a frown on her face.

"Jack?"

I frowned then looked back over to Mac. I know I could take Mac in a fist fight, but those legs of his are deadly. Applejack let my neck go a few seconds later then huffed as she walked back to the house. When she was close, she kicked Mac in the leg. Mac hissed as he held his leg as he looked at her as she walked passed. She walked into the house, stomping her hoofs in annoyance. Mac and I followed a minute later then sat down for breakfast. There was scrambled eggs, hay bacon muffins, and grits. We ate in silence Applejack sending staring daggers at Mac who looked back at her. Applebloom looked at the two of them then she asked a question.

"Hey sis, I heard you groaning last night is everything ok?"

Applejacks face turned red then quickly pulled my hat down over her face. I looked away, still chewing on my food my face red. 'Ok, this is going to be a long day. I finished my bowl of grits then cleaned the bowl then walked out of the house. I walked to the barn then started to get the wagon, and buckets we'd need for the day. While I moved the wagon out of the barn, Mac and Applejack come out of the house Applejack quick to run up to me. She wrapped her arms around mine then started to pull on me.

"Come on we have to open the stall!"

I nodded then walked back into the barn Applejack, trying to pull me the other way. I grabbed a lot of wood when she let my arm go then I loaded the wood.

"Can I come?"

I looked down at Applebloom then smiled as I picked her up and put her on the wagon. I started to pull the cart with Applejack beside me Mac waving as we walked away. But, when I was at the gate, I stopped as I felt as if someone was watching me. I drew my gun then looked back at Mac. "Catch!" I threw the 44 at Mac, and he caught it then looked at me. He looked at me for a second, then nodded his head as he put the 44 in his pocket. I nodded to him, and we walked off to town. While we walked, I heard Applebloom humming a song as I pulled the cart.

"What's you humming Bloom?"

"A song I heard in school, yesterday sis."

They talked with one another and another while I pulled the wagon.

"Hey, Applebloom!"

I stopped and saw Appleblooms friends running up to us. Applebloom jumped off the cart then ran up and hugged them as they hugged her. I laughed, then punched Applejacks's arm, and she laughed.

"Go play Bloom just be home by dark."

"Ok!"

She took off running to town in front of us Applejack still laughing. We started to walk again, and as we walked, Applejack wrapped her arm around my right arm as we walked. I looked at the clock tower and saw it was ten a clock. "We'll need to leave by five to get ready and be at the restaurant by six o clock."

"Ok, so when did you set this up?"

I smiled as I pulled my arm free then hugged her with the arm. "Yesterday, already paid and set. But, I don't know if you drink, so I didn't pay for wine or anything, but I'm bringing more bits if you'd like some." She smiled as she looked up at me, but we stopped when we heard someone whistling and hotting. I stopped and looked down a side road where the sound was coming from. I let Applejack go then walked up to the side street and saw Three stallon's holding down a mare. I started to run when I saw one with his hand under her shirt with a colt out cold on the street. I ran up behind the biggest one while his back was turned. I pulled my fist back then slammed my fist into the side of his face. He dropped to the ground blood coming from his mouth. The other two looked at me, and I grabbed the second standing one then pulled his head down then slammed my knee into his nose, breaking it blood burring him his nose. The last stallion let the mare go then pulled a knife out then tried to stab me, but I grabbed his arm then started to force his arm up at the elbow. Soon the bone snapped, and his arm bent back the wrong way making him scream as he dropped to the ground. When I was done, I looked at the mare and colt. The colt was an Earth pony colt with a brown coat, two-tone orange mane, and tail. He had a pair of jeans with a blue shirt on. I looked at mares, and she had on a pair of jeans with a white shirt on with an apron on. Her mane was brown, and her tail was the same shade of brown.

"Jack!"

Applejack ran up beside me and saw the three stallions then saw the mare.

"Cream Heart!"

Applejack helped the mare up, and I picked up the colt then started to walk away Applejack, helping Cream walk away from the stallions. We walked then back to the cart, and I had Cream sit down on the wagon, and I handed over the colt to her. She held him close, and I cupped her face then made her look at me. “Did they do anything beyond touching?” with a few tears in her eyes, she nodded.

“N-no… they just touched me, but they hit Button pretty hard on the back of his head.”

I nodded then let her go then drew my 44 then started to walk down the street again.

“Jack, stop!”

I stopped and looked at Applejack as she stood in my way.

“You’ve done enough you don’t have to kill them! We were having a good day, and we have a date later tonight, so please don’t do anything stupid.”

I looked at her then again gave in and holstered my 44 then walked back over to the mare. “We’ll take you home.” She smiled then nodded and told me which way to go. I was taking Cream Heart home while Applejack took the cart to the market. Cream was having trouble carrying her son on her back, so I knelt and spread my wings. "I'll carry him rest of the way."

"I can't ask you to do that your highness."

I looked back at her a smile on my face as I looked at her. "I don't mind besides a pretty mare should have to carry all that weight around and hurt her back." Cream blushed then put the colt on my back. I stood back up the started to walk with the mate again. While we walked I looked around not having come to this part of town before — the house where we're older some in desperate need of repairs to the roofs and walls. Creamed walked up to one in slightly better shape, but it still needs work done. I looked at the roof, and a part of it was about to fall in if something wasn't done. I looked back at her, and she hung her head as she spoke.

"I know it's not to look at, but my husband left us for a younger mare, and this is all I afforded on my own."

I nodded then looked at her yard. It needs to be cut badly, but I knew for a fact she couldn't get this done alone. She opened a small gate then started to walk up to the house. I followed and walked in when she opened the door for me.i walked into the living room and placed the colt on a couch in the living room. I looked around at the house and saw a lot of old things most likely someone else gave It to her and because of her husband. "It a shame such a life all because he let his urges take over and married to such a pretty mate too."

"Well, thank you, sir."

I jumped spun on my hoofs and saw the mare a blush on her face.

"Nopony has called me pretty for a long time."

I smiled as I rubbed the back of my head. We didn't know what to say to one another, so I gave a polite waved then walked to the door.

"Excuse me, but can I ask a favor of you, sir?"

I looked back at her and looked away from me as my hand rested on the doorknob. "Yes?"

"I know this is rude, but can I ask for some help with my house. I can buy the wood and all the other stuff if you know how to work on the house. I know I have no right to ask, but everyone else in town has forgotten about us."

I blinked as I looked at her home the up to the roof of the house. "It would be a job, but it was doable. The first thing I'd be doing is fixing the roof then I would move down to the next level of the house." I looked at her, and she smiled as she looked at me.

"Thank you, your highness."

I smiled held out a hand. "It's Jack, Jackson, if you're the fancy type."

She looks at me, eyebrow raised.

"Is your name Jack or Jackson?"

I laughed the explained. "It's Jack, but some of my friends used to say Jackson would look for me better." She smiled then waved at me as I walked out the door and held back to Applejack. While I walked, I waved to the towns pony, and they waved back. 'This is nice. No more gun battles, not a bandit in the land and most of all I have a good mare. Life couldn't get better even if I tried.' I saw a flower shop then stopped and bought a bundle of blue roses. I walked up to Applejack as she set up the stall. I set the roses down then I grabbed her sides, making her jump then turned her right leg pulled back. She saw me my hands up a smiled on my face. I bent down the grabbed the roses then held them out to her. She smiled as she looked at them, then took them from my hand then took a bite of one. I blinked but didn't question it because technically we were horses or ponies as they call themselves. We took our seats, and she snacked on the roses.

"Do you want one?"

I looked over at her as I carved a large heart with Derpy x Doctor on it. "Thank you, but no. I bought them for you." She smiled then ate another, and I saw a stallion walk up to the stall then looked down at Applejack didn't see him my hat blocking the view. He was a slightly taller stallion with A brown mane and yellow fur. He was wearing a green shirt with a pair of jeans with a brown belt.

"Hey, Applejack."

Applejack looked up at him while chewing on a rosa.

He smiled then put a hand on her stall then leaned in close to her. I stopped covering then took my hoofs off the stall counter and waited to see what he was going to do.

"You want to go out sometime tonight many go for a few drinks?"

Applejack frowned up at him then nodded her head.

"Sorry but I already have a date tonight, and even if I didn't, I wouldn't go with you. I've heard about all the mares you got drunk the buck when they couldn't say no."

He looked at her, and he was not happy as he reached for something in his pocket. I stood up, and he bucked up on me.

"Oh, you going to try something? Alicorn or not I'll!"

I grabbed his then slammed his head into the stall then stabbed my knife right in front of his eyes. "I'm going to let you go in a second but first listen. Blink if you understand." He blinked then I spoke again as Applejack looked at us. "You're going to leave and leave my mare alone, or I'm going to cut you open like a manticore rips a deer apart you got me?" He blinked then I let him go, and he stood up then ran off. I watched him go then sat back down the few ponies in the market looked at us as I started the work on the heart again. Applejack leaned into my arm as I got back to work on the heart.

"So?"

I looked at her, and she looked up at me.

"Do you drink wine or cider?"

I looked down at her then started to finish the t in Doctor. "Never been much of a drinker." Applejack laughed as I started on the o. "How about you?"

"I like a nice mug of cider every once in a while. My family makes the best cider in the country."

I laughed then started on the r. After another twenty minutes, we left for the farm and meet up with Applebloom near the edge of town. She said goodbye to her friends then went with us. While we walked down, Applejack was talking to me about the dinner.

"So, you too are final dating?"

We looked at Applebloom a broad smile on her face. Applejack blushed as she looked away, but I smiled at her then wrapped an arm around Applejack's shoulder. She blushed more as she looked up at me, but a small smile was on her face. Applebloom laughed as Applejack wrapped her arms around my chest as best she could. We walked up to the farm meeting Mac at the gate my 44 in hand. When we stopped he held my gun out to me I took it from him the holstered it. Applejack ran to the house to get ready, and Mac let me use the shower on the ground floor of the house. Once clean, I had my suit on, and I have a bag of fifty bits with my 44's on my sides.

"Here, Jack."

I looked down at Applebloom as she held her hands out with my hat. I smiled, then took it from her and thanked her. I walked over to the front door and waited for Applejack. A few minutes passed, and Applejack came down the stairs. She was dressed like last night, and Applebloom looked at her with stars in her eyes. Mac smiled as Applejack walked to me.

"Ok, you two be back before it gets too late."

We waved as we headed down the road to town. I took Applejack's hand as we walked and she smiled as we walk. As we walked, I heard her humming another song as we walked into town. While we walked through the town, I watched as stallion after stallion had their jaws on the ground seeing Applejack. We made it to the restaurant then walked in. The mare who helped me before saw me with Applejack as we walked in. She smiled as she grabbed two menus and a smaller red book. We followed her in into the main room with large tables. She took us to a large table in the back, and I pulled out Applejack's seat for her. She sat then thanked me as I sat down the mare setting the book and menus down.

"Take your time."

She walked off and pushed the books to Applejack. "You pick what we have Applejack." She smiled as she took the menu, then started to look over the food.

"How about full west dinner with wine to drink?"

I nodded, and she then picked the small book up.

"How about a black rosa wine it's a good wine, and it's only ten bits."

I smiled then nodded my head, and she smiled, then held both up. A moment later the mare came back a note pad in hand.

"What will you two be having tonight?"

Applejack smiled as she looked at her. "The west dinner with a bottle of black rosa wine." The mare nodded as she wrote the order down then took the menu and wine book. She walked off, and I noticed everyone looking at us as we waited for dinner. I saw a few stallions looking at Applejack, and I pulled the coat back showing the 44 without Applejack seeing. They quickly turned their heads, and I let the jacket fall back down. A stallion came up to our table with a bottle of wine in hand with two wine glasses in an orange glow around them.

"Would you like any other wine Stallion and Mare?"

I nodded, and Applejack said no. He purred the wine then placed them on the table but left a piece of paper on the table. I took it and saw it was a bill for the wine I laughed then put it on the table then pulled out my bit bag I had then placed the bits down then put five more bits to the side for the mare. The Stallion took the ten bits then the mare came back with the first part of the meal a soup. She seemed surprised to see the bits left for her but thanked us she walked back to get our food. I looked down at the black wine with a slight red tent to it. I picked up the glass then tried the wine, and it wasn't too bad. The soup was a mix of potato and carrots with a side of bread, but Applejack said we eat the flowers she brought out with the soup. She brought us a bowl of flowers, and we ate them to my surprise they tasted good. When they were done, we ate the soup slowly drinking our wine.

"Hey, Jack I have a question?"

I looked at her as I took a bite of bread. "Hm?"

"Why didn't you go with the Princess? You could be living in the castle in the capital eating stuff like this all the time."

I smiled as I sat the spoon down in an empty bowl. "Well, I hate cities and mares like them. Thinking they know what I want or what is best for me. But, the most bothersome in the fact the blue one wants to have a foal with me." Applejack spits some of the wine she had in her mouth back into the cup. She looked at me a shocked look in her face as she picked up her napkin then whipped her lips.

"I-i see, well that aside may I ask why you stay on the farm?"

I smiled as I looked at her as the bowls were taken away and a bowl of fruit salad. We started to eat again as we keep talking about this and that.

"So, would you like to go to the beach with me and the girls this weekend?"

I smiled as I looked at her, then nodded my head.

"Ok, wait, do you have a swimming suit?"

I nodded my head, not having any. "I'll go ask Rarity for some tomorrow." She smiled as she looked at me then finished the salad. Then our main meal came, and I smiled as I looked at a plate full of mashed potatoes, corn, beans biscuits, and a large cut of fish. She set the plates down then we started to eat the meal, and I looked at her. "Say, Applejack. Would you like to be my mare?" She stopped as she looked up from the plates.

"R-really?"

I nodded, and she smiled as she looked at me. Once our meal was done, we took our dessert to go, and we walked home nither of us too intoxicated from the wine but enough to have a little trouble walking. When we got out of town, I saw someone in the sky. Whoever this was quickly flew off when they saw me look them. Applejack didn't see it, and I didn't tell her as we walked. When we got the house, Mac greeted us and Applejack kissed my cheek then went in with the dessert. I left for the night, and I laid in bed, awake worried about who I saw in the air.
