Previous ChapterNext ChapterPonyville-Sweet Apple Acres:
Doe-Khar was walking on the path that lead to Sweet Apple Acres and she then spotted on the middle of the road a broken cart with baking supplies all around it when she came closer she saw a unicorn with pink coat and purple mane along side a cupcake with a cherry cutie mark trying to fix the cart and put the baking supplies in it at the same time,she then got closer to the cart and was standing behind the mare,"can i lend a hoof?". Doe asked her.
The mare then turn her head and when she saw doe she jumped back a little. Doe of course was used to such reactions from ponies,"do you need a hoof in fixing the cart?". Doe asked her again.
"Yes i will very much appreciate miss...". The mare said to her and doe responded to her,"doe-Khar but its doe for short and you are?". She asked the mare,"oh yes my name is Sugar Belle nice to meet you miss doe". Sugar belle said to her nervously.
Doe simply lifted the cart with her tail and then sugar belle fixed the tires of the cart and put back the baking supplies on it with the help of doe.
"Thank you for the help is their anything i can help you with?". Sugar belle asked her.
"Yes actually i need to get to Sweet Apple Acres do you know the way by any chance". Doe said to her and with a smile sugar belle told her,"well you are in luck i am all so going their to visit my husband and his family an all so give them this baking supplies for their apple pies,i now you could come with me it will save time for both of us and i really need help with this cart".
Doe had thought about it for a second and then answered her,"sure why not". And doe took the cart from sugar belle and started pulling the cart while sugar belle walked next to her.
They didn't talk much sugar belle was nervous around her she never saw a pony like her before but to her luck they did not need to walk much more for they arrived to Sweet Apple Acres,the place was full of farms and apple trees of all kind but doe did not see any workers the only one to greet them was a young filly with a pale green coat and red mane with a cutie mark of an apple with a heart inside a shield.
"Sugar belle!" the young filly call to sugar belle and hugged her.
"Its good to see you too apple bloom" sugar belle said to the filly named apple bloom, "is anypony in the farm or its just you?" sugar belle asked her.
"Its just me and Big Mac,applejack and Granny Smith went to do some business with filthy rich" apple bloom said to sugar belle.
Apple bloom then turn her head and she saw next to sugar belle a pony with dark grey coat and mane bigger then her brother with scars,horns,claws,sharp tail,sharp teeth and one eye. But she wasn't scared of her she was more...fascinated by her strange appearance.
"You apple bloom?" the mare asked her.
"Yes why do ask?" apple bloom asked in return.
"Your friend scootaloo asked me to give you this" and doe pulled out from her bag a notebook with her tail and handed it to apple bloom. Apple bloom then smiled to her and grabbed the notebook after she put it aside she then went to doe and hugged her,"thank you so much for bringing me this miss..." apple bloom said to her.
"Doe,doe-Khar and its no problem...so your applejack's sister" doe said to her.
"Yep how do you know my sis?" she asked doe.
"Well i will explain on the way to your house this cart is not that comfortable" doe said to apple bloom.
They all smiled and began to walk to the farm in the front sugar belle and apple bloom talked and giggle as they walked and in the back doe was pulling the cart,she was with her thoughts with no care in the world and a few minutes later they got to the front of the apple home the three of them unpacked the baking supplies from the cart and went inside the house. Sugar belle and apple bloom took the supplies to the kitchen and they told doe to make her self at home(which was a problem for her because her home was a forest),so she just sat in the living room doing nothing. After some time she heard a new voice from the kitchen,it sounded like a stallion. "Hi big mac" sugar belle said to the stallion.
"Did you finish apple bucking while i was away?" sugar belle asked him. And the only respond doe heard from him was a "eeyup".
"Oh big mac we have company in the living room,a pony that was kind enough to help sugar belle and me with the cart and unpacking". Apple bloom said to her brother.
"Then i'l go thank her for the help" the stallion named big mac said to them and went to the living room.
When he got to the living room he started to say,"on behalf of my wife and the apple family i would like to tha..." but Big McIntosh did not finish is words when he saw doe sitting in the living room he started to get nervous for some reason.
"Nnope nnope nnope nnope" he started to say to himself with a nervous look on his face. Doe on the other hoof was looking at him all so strangely,"well it was nothing really i was looking for applejack and since me and sugar belle which i am guessing is your wife where on the same direction i thought to help her out...say you look familiar did we met somewhere?" doe said and then asked big mac. "NO,ahh i mean no we never met since now haha" Big McIntosh said in a such awkward manner.
"Ok...anyway i just gonna sit here till your sister comes back" doe said to him and she went back to do nothing. Big mac then return to the kitchen all sweaty and he then spotted sugar belle and apple bloom looking at him. "Big mac are you ok?" sugar belle asked him.
"Apple bloom can you give me and sugar belle a moment" McIntosh said to his little sister. She then nodded and went to her room.
"Ok what's the problem mac you look like you saw a ghost" sugar belle said to him.
"That mare did she tell you why she is here?" Big McIntosh asked her.
"Well she said she want to talk to applejack,why do you ask" sugar belle asked him.
"Its nothing i just...don't trust her" McIntosh said to is wife while he was looking if doe was listening to them.
Sugar belle looked at him with shock and said to him,"now listen here big mac she helped me with the cart and the unpacking even when she didn't had to".
"Look sugar belle i know this mare and trust me she is bad news" big mac said to his wife only to see her raising an eyebrow and looking at him,"and how my i ask you know this mare" sugar belle asked him with a flat tone.
Big mac started to panic and sweat a lot,"well honey you see,it was a long time ago and we..." he started to tell her is story.
In the living room was just siting doing nothing when she suddenly heard sugar belle yell from the kitchen,"YOU DID WHAT!".
From the kitchen sugar belle stormed out angry carrying big mac with her magic she was now in front of doe and she toss mac next to the turnskin pony. And then with an angry face she turn to doe,"well when did you gonna say it".
Doe just looking at her not knowing what the hell she wants from her,"ahhh,i have no idea what are talking about".
"Just stop it ok i already know" sugar belle said to her in anger.
"Stop what i have no idea what you are talking about what the hell is wrong with your wife" doe said to sugar belle and then to big mac.
In the middle of the yelling applejack ran inside the house to see what was all noise is about,"what in tarnation is going on here!".
"I have no idea she just started to yell at me for no reason!" doe said to applejack.
"No reason,no reason!,YOU SLEPT WITH MY HUSBAND!" sugar belle yelled at doe.
"What are you talking about i did not..." doe was about to say only to stop and start thinking then her eye wide and she looked at big mac,"i knew i saw you before you were that young stallion from Appleloosa".
Big mac started get more nervous but applejack stopped him,"ok lets just calm down when did both of you meet and ahh...you know" applejack said to them uncomfortable.
"Slept together" doe said casually to applejack.
Applejack,Big McIntosh and sugar belle made uncomfortable sounds and doe was just smiling at them,"i don't see what is the problem here it was way before you to got married and it meant nothing to any of us" doe said to them trying to ease the tension in the house,"plus well i know understand why they call you big mac" doe said to Big McIntosh with a grin on her face while sugar belle just got more angry at both of them.
"Look i just wanted to say thank to applejack for the help when i first got to town i understand if you want me to go" doe said to them and started to get up ready to leave when they suddenly heard another voice at the door.
"So you just gonna leave like you all ways do" the voice said to doe.
They all turn to see Granny Smith standing and looking at doe it was quiet in the living room then doe just started to move slowly to Granny Smith,applejack stood in her way knowing about how powerful doe really is but granny smith did a no gesture with her head and applejack moved from her path. Doe and granny smith where looking at each other and something unexpected happened they hugged.
"You got old smith" doe said to her with a smile.
Smiling back at her granny smith said to her in respond,"you look the same the day i met you. Tall,strange and ugly" and both of them started to laugh while applejack,Big McIntosh and sugar belle just looked at them not knowing what is happening.
"Ah,granny you know each other?" applejack asked her grandmother.
"Know her we lived together for six years when i was young mare" granny said to applejack while she was standing next to her old friend.
"Why did you lived together...oh don't tell me" applejack said in panic only to be scold by granny,"no what kind of pony do you think i was she needed a job so she worked for us and lived here and she worked hard harder then most ponies that wanted to work here".
"But that was a long time ago so all of you start talking to each other so you can forgive one another we have work to do" Granny Smith told Big McIntosh and sugar belle,"applejack call your sister for help" she told applejack and she went upstairs to call apple bloom,"and you come with me outside we need to talk" she said to doe and they both went outside.
Outside of the house they set down they both looked at the farm and granny began talking,"so,you slept with my grandson" she said to her old friend.
"It was years ago an if i knew he was your grandson i would have never done it" doe said to her.
"I believe you...so are you gonna explain to me why you left when things started to get good in your life?" granny asked doe.
After a short silence doe answered her,"i told you a long time ago its complicated and i will not talk about this again".
"I understand,so you at least find what you looked for all this years?" granny asked her again.
"Yes and soon when i get it i will have some peace and quiet in my horrid life" doe said to her. Then granny put a hoof on her shoulder and told her,"your life was maybe with pain doe but remember you had some good in it".
They both smiled and hugged again then when they got up doe turn to granny smith,"well i'm gonna go now can you tell them sorry about all the mess and take this" doe then give her an old coin,"doe you know me and my family we don't take charity" granny told her and doe just got angry,"its not charity its a gift you old hag" doe said to her.
"You are older then me you crone" granny smith said to her all so with anger.
As they were looking at each other with anger they started to laugh,"haha,just like old times,well i best get going goodbye smith it was nice to see you" doe said to granny and she started to walk away.
"Remember doe if you want my door is open for you" granny said back to her and she return to the house.
Doe walked from Sweet Apple Acres with a smile on her face and she return to her exploration of ponyville.
