Zap Apple Zeke's story

It was on an rainy day, the once bustling town of Manehattan had an once inconsolable soul, his name was Zap Apple Zeke. He was an emerald coated Earth Pony with a zap apple cutie mark, and had green eyes and although he had a job once, misfortune had struck him again. he struggled to find work, but to no avail. Then after the rain stopped, he saw a beautiful rainbow, then said, "I have to find compensation!" Then, Somepony asked him, "Why ever are you out on a cold day like this?" said the kind pegasus pony, "please, come with me."

Afterwards she took the green earth stallion to her home, where he was treated with a meal, drink, and rest. The pure-hearted stallion said, "thank ya kindly for this ma'am." Then she replied, "you're Welcome," then she added, "oh, I'm so sorry! I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Value Valerie, welcome to my humble abode!" The earth pony replied, "I'm Zap Apple Zeke, nice to meet ya!"

He then looked around, what he saw was a beautiful home made of red brick with the works such as: a plush rug, a cozy fireplace, a red chair, and then he saw a clock. Which reminded him and also startled him saying, "I have to go!" but Value Valerie said, "please stay, I don't mind, especially if you are here. As long as you're here, you're welcome to stay, no charge!" said the generous pegasus. Zeke thought to himself, she's awfully nice, so I should appease her by keeping her Company.

Zap Apple Zeke said, "company?" as if he was going to cry. Value Valerie saw the tears on Zap Apple Zeke, then she gasped:oh my gosh,what's wrong?! he started explaining his childhood, when I was a little colt they teased me for being a blank flank,sometimes just said: "I hate you!" when the Teacher at my school saw what was going on,she said:"knock it off!" Zap Apple Zeke continued:"after School, my parents saw how badly beaten I was. my mother said after I fell flat on the ground,"honey, oh gosh, Zap Apple Zachary! they took Me to a Hospital,and once I woke up, my mother and my father said:"we were so worried about you!" I said:"where am I? my mother said:"you're in the hospital."my Father Said:"you took quite a buster there,son.luckily, there was a mirror installed above me, so i looked up,right there and then, I saw not just my bruises, but i saw something i had never saw before, nor did i think About it.

I was bleeding on my Forehead and had an really painful headache. "he's having a hemorrhage!" said the Nurse, it took an Antibiotic and a Bandage to treat the bleeding, and I wasn't look like I would make it, but the Doctor said:"this does not look good."The next day, the bullies who weren't bullies anymore and the ones who cared about me gathered around and made a prayer that would help me get well,they also put a "get well soon card on the table where I was resting,then they left the room.

Several days later, they said:"wake up!" in a calm and gentle manner, I slowly opened my eyes, my mother hugged me gently and said:oh honey, I am so glad you're ok! The ones who used to pick on me apologized,and they became my friends, my parents took me home and spent all day with me since it was a Saturday, I then realized how many Friends I had, until today.

Value Valerie spoke:"I had no idea how it were to turn out if it were me." Zap Apple Zeke comforted Value Valerie by saying:"you told me that you were just as troubled as I was." she replied: yes I was, but it was much worse." he then said:"how could it possibly be worse?" she then put her cup of Cider down on the Table in front of her, and then said: "because I went to The Everfree Forest." The Everfree Forest?" he asked. It's the most dangerous place in Equestria.

"Well then what happened?" he asked,she then replied: "I could've been eaten alive!" eaten by what?" he queried. "a vicious pack of Timber Wolves" she replied. "can you tell me what they looked like?" he asked. "well it shouldn't be too hard to figure out that they are made out of wood" she answered with another few descriptions,"sharp teeth,sharp claws,bad breath, evil eyes, that fits the Bill.

"I can't believe you could've been eaten alive by those Timber Wolves, how did you escape?" he asked, she answered:"uh,hello, I'm a pegasus pony I flew away, and not only that, I was quick and clever enough to use a branch as a weapon, a weapon of smarts that any other Pony could use of course." he asked then:"so you outsmarted them?" he asked she replied honestly:"yup."

Then he asked another question:"why were you in the Everfree Forest?" she answered: "I always wondered what it would look like, even if it rained, which by the way it did, "what happened next? he asked,she answered:"some sort of creature with stripes called a Zebra named Zecora threw stones in their mouths, causing them to explode!" then she said to me, "come with me,or soon food you will be." I quickly used my wing power to escape along with me,said Value Valerie.

As I left the Forest I had gained a new friend, and every now and then she comes hereto rest, for a good price that is, " how much did you charge her? said Zap Apple Zeke, I charged her only 10 bits, seeing it was a friend discount." she then said:5 bits discount,"only 10 bits?" he asked, "yup" she answered, they were speaking until dawn, when the rain stops, Zap Apple Zeke sighed and asked:"well, is your boss going to give me a job?"

"Only if you're obedient" she replied, he filled out an application, after then she said: "thank you." Zap Apple Zeke was mindful of his manners, and said:"you're welcome." two hours later, she said to him:"my boss said that you could work here not just because you applied, but because you're my friend." he then smiled as he was told "you are hired." Zap Apple Zeke was very hospitable to any pony who came in and any other creature too.

Zap Apple Zeke realized that he was given a job because he made friends in manehattan, and he was very grateful that he learned a very valuable lesson:"even when you feel the tides have shifted against you, friendship can brighten your life with the sun's very blessing, whether you feel sad or confused,hurt or in danger, remember the one's who were there for you." the stallion unicorn father and pegasus mother saw how

Grown up Zap Apple Zeke was, so they let him decide to leave his home when he was 26 years old, "and that's how i ended up in the rain, of course no pony told about the weather happening that day, so they went inside because they had the pegasi manage the weather just like they do in a place called ponyville, so Zap Apple Zeke set out for

ponyville next morning after he said: "i'm going to ponyville but i will come back, so don't fire me.

both the boss and Value Valerie awaited the return of Zap Apple Zeke,  because when he did come back, he still worked there, plus Value Valerie and her boss made a deal: "as long as he comes back and works, no problem! said her boss, a new day a fresh start, and it was very sunny that day, and everypony said:"hi!" and "hello!"when

had seen his friends welcome him back to manehattan.

The End
