October Friday 27th 4:27 pm
“Sis! w-wait up!” Applbloom’s voice cried as she sprinted towards her sister Applejack. As She caught up to her she stopped to catchher breath, “There you are!” She cried as she found her sister setting up camp. “Howdy partner!” Applejack giggled. “Wanna help with the tent ‘lil sis?” Applejack suggested. “Sure!” Applebloom grabbed the tent and followed the steps as best as she can.
“You sure Big mac is ok with all the chores at home?” Applebloom asked hammering down a nail.
“Of course! afetr all he kindof owed me, I bucked half the fields without him.” AppleJack replied.
“I dunno, he seamed pretty upset, we should’ve invited him!” Applebloom said with a look of regret in her golden eyes.
“Now don’t get your mane in a tangle, this is a girl campin’ trip! notice the GIRL part in that sentence?” applejack giggled sarcasticly.
“Well ok, but I still feel guilty.” Applebloom objected stomping her hoof on the ground.
“Well, it’s all right to be guilty ‘bout somethin’.” Said the country pony.
“I guess.” Applebloom sighed taking out the sleeping bags and placing them in the tent.
The two ponies had set camp on the edge of a short cliff below was a river and it was moving fast too. The sun began to set as AppleJack had gone out to get fire wood. “Applejack, Which side of the tent do you want?” Applebloom asked while the moon started to appear more clear. The silence was thick. Applebloom turned around to find nopony there. As she turned around back to the tent she found herself face to face with Applejack. “BOO!” She shouted. “AHHH!” Applebloom shrieked in surprise falling backwards. The two ponies giggled as they prepared dinner.
After dinner Applejack had gone out to get more firewood, when she came back Applebloom lie on her sleeping bag as she read Daring Do, Applejack walked into the tent and zipped the door closed shut. “Hi Sis.” Applebloom welcomed looking up from her book. “Uh huh can’t take right now.” Applejack sprinted through her words as she unzipped a hole in the door. The sight of dark figures ripping through thier cooler of food and thier bunches of firewood. “Whatcha doin’?” Applebloom asked starting to worry. Applejack motioned her sister to be quiet. “Shhhh! They might hear you!” Applejack snapped back in a whisper. As Applejack looked through the hole again the dark figures had disappeard. She turned back to her sister. “Don’t go outside untill mornin’ ‘kay?” Applejack ordered. The Filly nodded and got under her blankets in her sleeping bag. “I’m tuckered out, g’night sis.” Applebloom whispered as she set down her book and turned her flashlight off. “G’night sis.” Applejack kissed her sister on the forehead. “I may as well hit the hay myself.” Applejack said getting in her Sleeping bag as well.

October Saturday 28th 7:52 am
“Sis you ‘wake?” Applebloom hovered infront of here sisters face urging her to wake up. “Ug! will that pony ever wake up!” Applebloom stomped as she paced back and forth in the tent. “I may as well just hit ‘er then.” She suggested pushing her unconcious sister. “WAKE UP FOR THE LOVE OF CELESTIA!” Applebloom cried. “HUH WHA!?” Applejack awoke immediatly. “Thank heavens your awake now.” Applebloom sighed with relief. Applejack rubbed the sleep from her eyes as she slowly rose to a sitting position.
The wind was heavy that morning, too dangerous for Applebloom. “Now you stay here ‘kay? I need to see what dem creatures stole.” Applejack said heading outside. She held her hat on as she stood in the winds observing what they had done. As Applejack rushed back to the tent Applebloom’s stomache started growling. “Woo! man is it cold!” Applejack sat down on her bed, as she took off her hat. “What did those things do last night?” Applebloom asked, curiousity running the words she just said. “They took most of our meat and a couple apples. Applebloom winced at the thought of apples, “Apples?” Applebloom asked as her eye started twitching. “Yeah why?” Apple replied. “Man! I’m SICK of Apples! Apples this and Apples that! I’M SICK OF IT! Give me worms I’ll eat those rather then those APPLES! and my name, UGGG! MY NAME! it’s named after those horrid.... those terrible.... those annoying APPLES!” Applebloom ran out of the tent and through the thicket into the forest. “Applebloom!” cried Applejack running after her.
it soon started pouring down rain as the thunder boomed and the lightning lit up the sky. Applebloom ignored her sister’s cries as took turns tripping in the mud with her sister. Applebloom looked behind her to find her sister catching up to her. “If I stop now she’ll punish me for my opinion!” Applebloom shreaked as she tried to speed up more. “Come on AJ! Catch her first save the talking ideas fer later!” Applejack told herself. The rain poured down even harder as the sky darkend Howls of wolves lingered nearby. The two sisters ran deeper and deeper into the thick trees. Applejack closed her eyes for a second and opened them to find her sister no longer ahead of her. “Applebloom!!!” Applejack cried as she skidded to a stop in the mud. “APPLEBLOOM!!!”
Applebloom stopped and sat on a rock under an oak tree, she took out the bow Applejack had given her and stared at it. Then something caught her eye, her sister’s bright orange fur was coming towards. “Oh Pony feathers.” Applebloom snapped as she got up and ran. Applejack heard the bushes rusle. “Applebloom?” she cried as she dove towards the sound of breaking branches and crumbling leaves. “Applebloom!? Where are you!?” Applejack cried as she continued racing through the forest.
“That darn pony doesn’t know when to stop does she!?” Applebloom said to herself. Unknowingly she passed by the tent and ran right off the slipper and muddy cliff. “AAAAAAAAHHHH!!!” Screamed Applebloom as she caught herself biting a loose branch sticking out of the side of the cliff. She looked down to find sharp rocks, mud, and a super deep river, all 1,500ft below her hooves. Applebloom squinted her eyes as the branch became looser and looser. “Applebloom!?” Applejack cried seeing her beloved sister hanging from a branch by a cliff. Applebloom looked up to find her sister crying above her. Down at the bank of the river where the timber wolves they licked thier chops at the thougth of the meaty flesh of the filly. “Applejack! help me please!!!” Applebloom cried biting on for dear life. The branch slipped about to break at any second. “I-I...” the silence broke as.... the branch broke.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!” The petrified screamed of the young filly came out of her mouth as her sister cried and squinted her eyes as she heard her sister’s bones break at the bottom of the cliff. “...Applebloom...” Applejack cried. She looked back down to find the Timberwolves taking the motionless, lifeless body. “It’s all mah fault.” Applejack said crying to the clouds. “IT’S MY FAULT!” Applejack screamed out the words and let the tears sream down her cheeks, “APPLEBLOOM I’M SORRY! I CAN’T DO THIS! I J-JUST, I JUST CAN’T GO ON WITHOUT YOU!” Applejack howled at the heavy winds. then, she saw, the ribbon lieing in a nearby bush. Applejack trotted to it and picked it up. “....my little blossom never got to bloom, and it’s all my fault.... It’s all my fault....”

November Friday 16th 6:19 pm
Applejack walked up to her bedroom after a hard day of applebucking she needed to rest before supper. Sadly that couldn’t happen, Applejack had been so depressed after her sister’s death she didn’t know what to do. everyday she would go to her sister’s room and stare at the ribbon and cry a long and meaningful cry. She couldn’t sleep either the only way she could sleep, was when she passed out from drinking to much. She started doing drugs and drinking alchohal on a daily basis. She became a wreck without Applebloom, her words were quit correct the night Applebloom died. ‘I can’t go on without you’ sadly that’s true.
“Hey, AJ?” big mac asked knocking on the door. Applejack had just given herself a shot in the arm. “yes big mac? *hic*” she asked taking a drink from her vodka bottle. “I just wanted to let you know, dinner is ready.” big mac answered. “mmkay, tell granny asshole I’ll be down when I want.” Applejack boasted getting up and almost falling over. “Go on and tell her!” she said pushing her brother out the door and slamming it in his face. “God damn you bucking strangers.” Applejack sighed sitting on her bed. She looked in the mirror on her desk. “Look at me, I’m a mess, I ruined everypony’s life especially my own.” She looked away from the mirror and to her nighttand where she found cigarettes, alchohal, drugs and an apple. “...apple.......APPLE!!” Applejack smacked the apple off her nightstand sending it through her window breaking it into tiny pieces of sharp bits. “I HATE APPLES!” Applejack cries as she went to walk to the window. She was so drunk she passed out landing face firste onto the shards of glass pentrating her skin.

December Sunday 19th 4:52 pm
Applejack opened her eyes to find herself in a caracase of bandages. “Where the buck am I get me out right now!” Applejack screamed wriggling her head inside the tiny room. “Applejack for this procedure you NEED to stay clam we will remove the mask don’t worry.” the assurence of the docter’s voice was shaky but somewhat firm. A nurse poked Applejack with a needle making her loopey, even though she already was.
The porcedur on Applejack was tough and scary she would suddenly jerk or move with make cutting the bandages pretty hard. but otherwise afterwards they could reveal the face of Applejack. When they removed the bandages her face was more pale and had tiny bumps all over her eyes were bloodshot red but that’s from the drugs not the glass, and she had blood stains all over her face. Applejack noticed her family and friends sitting there. “What do you filly foolers want!?” Applejack hissed at her friends. The group of people all gasped in shock of what the pony had said. “You heard me! now why the buck am I here!?” Applejack barked towards the group of ponies. “you facepalmed into a pile of glass.” Rainbow Dash explained. “Excuse me? miss Rainbow Princess of fairy world!?” Applejack teased. Rainbow raged at the feedback. “Excuse me!?” Sh esaid flying towards her face. “At least I don’t have permanent zits!” Rainbow cried in Applejack’s face. “At least I ain’t a pony that keeps her head in the clouds!.” Applejack boasted. “But I didn’t do drugs or alchohal when my little sister died!” Applejack froze that that comeback. tears flooded to her eyes as the flash backs of her sister’s death emerged. “....no....NO!” Applejack jumped out of bed, pulling all the needles and cables attached to her out. She raced through the halls bumping into any pony she needed to get out of the nightmare she was living. “Get her!” cried Twilight.
Applejack ran out of the hospital, mane in a mess, still in the hospital gown. “What in equestria?” Applejack cried when she thought she saw Applebloom, sadly it wasn’t it was the cutie mark crusaders with Twist. Applejack tore off the gown and raced to the fillies. “Oh, hey Applejack!” Sweetie belle squeeked. “girls come to my house ok? OK! great see ya fillies there!” She said as she raced to sweet Apple Acres. “that was wierd.” Scootaloo said. “Well, Leth, go girlth!” twist urged as she ran after Applejack. the girls rolled thier eyes, giggled and followed.
Applejack simontaniously waited for the girls they showed up eventually and invited them in and into her room. She locked the door and sat on her bed. “Why are we in here?” Sweetie asked. “are you guys hurt by Applebloom too?” Applejack asked the fillies. they rolled thier eyes. “Your still going on about that?” Scootaloo piped up. “The’th gone The won’t be coming bwack!” Twist said with tears forming. “Yes I am still hurt, you know why? It’s my damn fault she is gone, I have turned to the bad side after she left and I can’t turn myself to the right way, my life is near it’s end.” Applejack cried. “Applejack it’s ok.” Sweetie belle comforted in a sweet and soft voice rubbing Applejack’s back. “It ain’t alright I swear I ruined everypony.” Applejack cried.”Thop being tho down AppleThack!” Twist argued glaring at the mare. “Thath the pasth now look to the futher.” Twist continued. “I can’t, how in Equestria can I do that when I’m practilly blind and not even seein’ where I put my hoof next?” Applejack disagreed. “We can try to help you if you want.” Scootaloo suggested. “I do need help, you wouldn’t mind would you?” Applejack replied. “of course not!” the fillies said. “Ok then meet at your clubhouse at 8 am tomarrow ‘kay?” Applejack planned. “Got it!” they said unlocking the door and walking out of the house.
