The Last Family Photo

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Applejack appeared in the farm, a little confused at the fact that she traveled such a long distance with just a single step.
She was immediately approached by Applebloom, who jumped to give her a hug.
Big Mac and Sugar Belle approached with a little violet colt following behind.

“Hey, aren’t you a little early in life?” she jokingly asked while ruffling his mane.

“They said that the dream has no restrictions anymore, so we pulled him here.”

“Eeyup.”

Granny Smith appeared behind Applejack.

“I’m quite glad it doesn’t have them, it’s been a long time since I felt this young,” she said while stretching her body, making everypony laugh.

AppleBloom let go of Applejack before speaking;

“I’m glad we can spend the end in family.”

Granny Smith laughed.

“Wait until we are all here to say that.”

Little by little, more and more ponies started to appear around them, until the whole Apple family was gathered outside of the barn, talking to each other and giving their goodbyes.
Applejack wiped a tear from her eye and called out to them;

“How about we have one last family picture?”

The Apples agreed and quickly started to gather in front of a camera that somepony made appear.

“Can a friend also join?” sounded a voice behind Applejack, and when the farm pony turned around, she found Coloratura nervously looking at her.

“Of course, Rara. You are like family to me.”

Both friends hugged each other and took their place for the picture, smiling along the rest of the Apple family.
A couple seconds later, the flash of the camera activated, and the photo was ejected from it, showing an empty barn.
