Hey, guys! Naymecraft here, and this is my first fanfiction! I've been reading My Little Pony fanfics for a while now, and I've had the idea for this story for quite some time now, but only recently have I decided to finally write it down. If you want to stay up to date on all the chapters I'll be adding in the future, then follow this story! I hope you like it! Sorry that this first chapter is kinda short- I'll try to upload longer chapters in the future.

"Tell me a story, Applejack," Applebloom begged her sister as she tucked her in for the night. "Tell me about how ya got yer cutie mark."

Applejack smiled warmly at her little sister. "Applebloom, ya already know this story. There's no need fer ya to hear it again." Applebloom gave her older sister a pleading look. "Please? Just once?" Applejack sighed. "Alright then," she said.

Applebloom was lost in the story, envisioning her older sister as the filly who had left Sweet Apple Acres in search of her special talent. Applejack had left her home and the ones she knew and loved in search of her special talent... and she had found it.

"Applejack?" Applebloom asked when the story was over. "How did ya know that ya had to leave in order to find yer special talent?" Applejack sighed. "Ah don't know, Applebloom. Ah guess... Ah just knew."

Ah... just knew.

These words echoed throughout Applebloom's mind until she finally drifted off to sleep.

Stay tuned for Chapter 2!
