Fluttershy rushes outside to find the noise she heard. She can't seem to find anything wrong besides a black mark on the ground. She gets closer to the mark and looks it over. Yelling catches her attention.

"What were you doing?" Fluttershy can hear Applejack yelling from the barn. She starts to head over to the barn, "You could've died," Fluttershy makes her way into the barn.

"Is everything alright?" Fluttershy asks interrupting Applejack's yelling. She turns around and looks at Fluttershy.

"Yeah," Applejack says, "Just Apple Bloom almost blowing herself up," she turns back to Apple Bloom and gives her a stare.

"How?"

"Apple Bloom thought it was a good idea to look through Big Mac's weapon cache and take a grenade."

"But Applejack-"

"No buts Apple Bloom. You could've died, and then what?" Applejack walks away from Apple Bloom and towards Fluttershy.

"Applejack," Apple Bloom says silently. She leaves the barn crying.

"She needs to grow up in times like these," Applejack says to Fluttershy about Apple Bloom, "Where hell walks the ground."

"Yeah, but I'm sure she was just trying to help," Fluttershy tries to protect Apple Bloom.

"Her heart was in the right place," Applejack sighs and looks at Fluttershy, "I gotta talk to ya."

"Yeah sure AJ, what's up?"

"I don't think you can be helpful in protecting the farm."
"W-what?" Fluttershy asks.

"You don't know how to protect yourself," Applejack puts her hand on Fluttershy's shoulder, "But there are other ways for you to help."

"I want to help."

"You will Shy. You can help cook."

"I'm that useless?" Fluttershy starts to get upset.

"Shy, no," Applejack looks like she is thinking of something, "You helped Rarity, right?"

"Yeah, I bandaged Bon Bon," Fluttershy grabs Applejacks hand that's on her shoulder, "Are you gonna say, be the doctor?"

"No. I was thinking, you take care of Bon Bon, until she is 100%," Applejack suggests, "That can benefit you both."

"I guess," Fluttershy pulls off Applejack's hand.

"Shy, please don't get mad."

"I'm not mad, just upset," Fluttershy starts to head to the door, but turns around asks, "Do you know where Dashie is?"

"I sent her, Big Mac, and Rarity into Ponyville," Applejack replies.

"You did what?" Fluttershy snaps at Applejack, "You sent her to Ponyville?"

"Yeah, we need supplies."

"Why send them into that hell hole?" Fluttershy gets closer to Applejack in a threatening way, "What's wrong with you?"

"Hey don't get all mad at me, it was Rainbow dashes' idea," Applejack backs off.

"What?" Fluttershy lowers her face.

"I suggested that they go into the forest, but she thought it would be better to go to Ponyville for supplies," Applejack looks at the ground, "I don't really know why I allowed them to go."

"AJ, I'm sorry," Fluttershy starts to tear up.

"Shy," Applejack hugs her, "I know you're only worried about Dash."

"I hate this. If only we told each other about our feelings before."

"Yeah, I feel the same way," Applejack looks down at Fluttershy.

"You like someone?"

"Yeah, this guy I met one day in Canterlot. He was perfect," Applejack stops hugging Fluttershy, "We've been seeing each other for a while, but ever since this happened; I know he's dead."

"How do you know?" Fluttershy asks the upset Applejack.

"I've killed many of those things while finding survivors. He was one of them."

"I'm sorry," Fluttershy says almost in a whisper.

"Can you go and see to Bon Bon?" Applejack asks Fluttershy.

"Yeah," Fluttershy hugs Applejack really quick and leaves her in the barn by herself. She heads to the house looking back at the barn every so step. She enters the house to go and see Bon Bon.
