Reviews (You guys are so awesome!)
wildfur123 - Thanks!
lunarprincess21 - I'm glad you're excited about the wedding.
mollycarson5678 - That's awesome!
Four Leaf is another OC, he has red hair, a green coat, and doesn't have his cutie mark yet.
Fredrick is just kinda there and not really important.
Sardines is a game where one person or a small group of people hide and then the other people or groups try to find them, when they do find them they hide with them, and the last group to hide with them has to hide in the next game.
Will be used in a later chapter possibly, just mentioned in this one.
The loud train whistle was no match for the excited screams of three little fillies. Applejack watched from the top bunk as Applebloom, Sweetie Bell, and Scoodaloo ran around the car screaming, laughing, and occasionally jumping on the beds. "Are we being too loud, Sis?" asked Applebloom stopping in front of her sister, Sweetie Bell ran into her then regained her balance, Scoodaloo slammed into them and they all tumbled into the floor.
"I'm just happy to not be wedding planning," Applejack admitted.
"Aren't you going to have to plan your wedding to Flim right after Fluttershy and Big Mac's?" asked Sweetie Bell.
"Um, I don't know," Applejack cringed awkwardly.
"Are you guys gonna get married?" asked Sweetie Bell.
"Possibly," Applejack answered.
"Why does food taste good?" asked Applebloom.
"Because it keeps you from dying," Applejack suggested.
Flam
That's actually a really good question.
"Why are some colors pretty and others not?" asked Sweetie Bell.
"I'm not qualified to answer that, ask Rarity," Applejack answered.
"If I were to throw a chicken off the roof would the eggs inside break?" asked Scoodaloo.
Applejack stared for a minute, opened her mouth, then closed it again, "I have absolutely no idea who would be able to answer that question."
Doctor Whooves
*Stares angrily at wall* Derpy, get me a chicken!
"Aww," Scoodaloo's shoulders slumped in sadness.
"I know, let's play truth or dare!" Applebloom spoke trying to cheer up her friend.
"How are we going to do dares, we only brought warm cloths," Sweetie Bell pointed out.
"True, true, wait that's it, we could just ask each other questions," Applebloom cheered jumping onto the other top bunk.
Applejack
This is going to be a fun weekend, I'm not really sure If I'm being sarcastic or not.
"I'm in!" Scoodaloo yelled as she and Sweetie Bell jumped up with Applebloom.
"Okay Applebloom, Truth or Truth?" asked Sweetie Bell.
"Um, truth," Applebloom answered. Applejack smiled at the fillys before laying down and trying to sleep.
Back at the farm Flim sat in the kitchen reading through cookbooks when Flam walked in from being outside, "Are you studying recipes?"
"It's easier to have them memorized," Flim answered.
"You're taking this house wife thing really seriously," Flam laughed.
"Weren't you growing flowers not 2 seconds ago?" asked Flim.
Flam
Gardening is like farming, there is nothing wrong with a stallion growing flowers, plus they're for the wedding so it's not like I'm doing it as a hobby.
"You're a house wife," Flam concluded before walking into the living room, Flim sighed and went back to reading.
Twilight sat intently drawing while Flash was across from her reading. "Spike! Have you seen my colored pencils?" Twilight called.
"I got them!" Spike called back running in with a rectangular plastic box and gave it to Twilight.
"Are you almost done?" asked Flash.
Spike
Twilight might make the picture look better than the sculptor can create, because not everyone is as perfect as her and by perfect, I mean crazy.
"Oh no, I need the gray one for shading," Twilight smiled.
Flash put down his book and looked at was Twilight was drawing, "Woah, that's actually really good."
"Why do you sound so surprised?" asked Twilight.
"I thought if you were good at one more thing you would explode," Flash admitted.
"Because you weren't trained for that?" asked Twilight.
Celestia
That is a cool catchphrase.
"I was not trained for that," Flash answered, "Or any major medical mishaps." Flash went back to reading as Twilight watched him smiling, Flash stopped reading and stared at the table above his book then looked at Twilight, "Please don't do that, it freaks me out."
Twilight laughed, "I know, you're just so funny."
"Thanks, I try," Flash smiled.
Rarity and Spike sat in Rarity's boutique, Rarity was working and Spike was running around gathering fabric for her, "Spike, can you bring me another spool of black thread?"
"Of course Rarity, nightfury or serious-black?" asked Spike as he opened the thread cabinet.
"Is there any mutated ninja?" asked Rarity.
"Yes, here you go," Spike walked over to Rarity and gave her the thread.
The sun was just setting as Flim, Flam, and Big Mac sat around the kitchen table with various bottles of liquor, Flim used magic to get some glasses from the cabinet, "This is a bad idea."
"Eeeyup," Big Mac agreed as Flam magically poured them each a glass.
"Don't ruin this for me, I want to see if I can take on Applejack," Flam complained.
Applejack
He has no chance.
"Anything we say doesn't leave this table," Mac announced as they all picked up a glass.
"Agreed," Flim and Flam spoke in unison.
Night had fallen on the city when Applejack, Applebloom, Sweetie Bell, and Scoodaloo made their way through the streets of Manehattan. "Sis, do you know where we're going?" asked Applebloom.
"I visited our kin out here when I came with Rarity for the big fashion show," Applejack explained as they approached a brick building. As they approached the door a blue stallion with blonde hair opened the door for them, Sweetie Bell, Applebloom, Scoodaloo, and Applejack thanked him.
Babs sat in the lobby on a worn couch reading a magazine, She looked up to see her friends, "Hey guys, I can't believe you're here!" Applebloom, Scoodaloo, and Sweetie Bell jumped onto the couch and they began talking.
"Babs has been excited about your visit all week," the door-man spoke to Applejack, "The names Fredric by the way."
Babs
I hang out with Fredric a lot, he's really nice.
"Applejack," Applejack announced as they shook hooves.
"You mares are the last ones in for the night so once you're safely upstairs I'll lock up and leave," Fredric explained.
"We'll head up now then, thanks again," Applejack called as she herded the fillies upstairs.
Flim sat looking completely fine, Flam was on the verge of tears, and Big Mac had the hiccups. "Did I ever tell you about my first marefriend?" asked Flam.
"Eeenope," Mac answered.
Flam
Don't you dare judge me.
"Flam, don't go there," Flim sighed.
Flam slammed his hoof on the table, "I need to talk about it, Flim!"
"Goodnight, girls," Applejack spoke from the door way, "I'll be in the living room if you need me."
"Night, Applejack!" the fillies called back from their sleeping bags on the floor. Applejack closed the door and sat on the couch, the fillies could be heard whispering and giggling in the other room, Applejack smiled as she fell asleep.
Spike and Flash were playing paper hoofball as Twilight was reading. Flash accidentally hit Twilight in the head with a paper hoofball, "Oh my goodness, I am so sorry!"
"Aren't you supposed to keep her safe?" asked Spike laughing hysterically.
Flash
I am honored to be the first and probably last guard to hit a princess in the head with a paper hoofball. But I still feel kinda bad, that was rude.
"Its fine," Twilight smiled, "But if you hit me with it again I'm going to take it away from you."
"Yes, ma'am," Flash nodded.
Applejack sat on a park bench watching the CMC playing on the playground. Applejack turned around as she heard her name called to see Coco Pommel and Trenderhoof. "We'll shoot, what are you two doing here?" asked Applejack as Coco sat next to her and Trenderhoof next to Coco.
"Trenderhoof and I were talking about one of my designs when I remembered that I had to watch my nephew so he came along," Coco explained as Trenderhoof casually put his arm on the back of the bench, behind Coco.
"Well it's great to see you both, I didn't know you knew each other, I guess this city isn't as big as I thought it was," Applejack shrugged.
Applejack
It's really nice that Trenderhoof and Coco are friends...come on guys I totally see what's going on. Of course I'm gonna say something.
"Oh it is, I got lost like four times today," Trenderhoof spoke making Coco laugh as she did Trenderhoof looked at her and smiled.
"Oh dear, he's starting a fight," Coco got up and briskly trotted across the playground, "Sweetie, don't do that please!" As she said, sweetie, Sweetie bell looked up in confusion then shrugged and went back to climbing up a ladder.
As soon as she was out of ear shot Applejack leaned over and punched Trenderhoof in the side, "Ow! What was that?"
"I saw that, you like her don't you?" asked Applejack.
"Being subtle isn't working is it?" asked Trenderhoof.
"Well, how long have you been being subtle?" asked Applejack.
"Two weeks," Trenderhoof answered.
Spike
*Laughs*
"Try something else in like 4 months," Applejack suggested.
"You have no experience having to get attention do you?" asked Trenderhoof.
"Nope, no experience what so ever, I do know how to get rid of callers but you knew that," Applejack laughed.
"You made this awkward," Trenderhoof replied.
"Yeah, sorry," Applejack spoke back.
Flim, Flam, and Big Mac lay on the floor in a circle. "I can't take on Applejack, I might die," Flam admitted.
"Maybe one of the band members could," Big Mac suggested.
"Or we could accept that she's good at something that will get her nowhere in life and move on," Flim shrugged.
"Then what are we going to do?" asked Flam.
They looked up to see Granny Smith standing at the bottom of the stairs, "You could spend the night in the castle of the two sisters, it's said to be haunted."
Spike
They better make sure they know if anyone else is going.
"We could invite Cheese Sandwich, Spike, and the guards," Flim suggested.
"Eeeyup," Big Mac agreed.
"Flim, don't you dare!" Flam threatened.
"We're going on an adventure!" Flim yelled happily despite his brothers warning.
Flim, Flim, Big Mac, Cheese Sandwich, Emerald Waters, Little Dot, Shadow Blade, Lucky Star, and Spike sat on sleeping bags in a giant circle in the throne room of the two sisters. "This is going to be the best sleep over ever!" Cheese Sandwich screamed making confetti fall on the stallions.
"Wait, where's Flash?" asked Flim.
"Probably with Twilight," Emerald Waters answered.
Pinkie Pie
Awwww!
"And where would she be?" asked Flam. The guards, Cheese Sandwich, Flim, Big Mac, and Spike looked at Flam like he was crazy.
"Library," Big Mac spoke looking disappointed.
"Are you sure you'll be okay?" asked Flash as he watched Twilight gather some books from around the room.
"I'll be fine, I've stayed here before and it's not even star spider season," Twilight assured settling into a cushion with her stack of books.
"Be careful there's a lot of...sharp corners," Flash spoke awkwardly looking around the relatively safe library.
Rainbow Dash
Why don't you just wrap her in bubble wrap? Oh wait, then she could get scared by the popping noise.
"Flash, you know how important you bonded with your friends is," Twilight reminded.
"Okay fine, just call if you need anything, eh?" Flash asked in a Canadian accent.
"Go away!" Twilight laughed throwing a pillow at him.
Applejack lay on the couch half asleep when Babs climbed out of the tent in the middle of the room, ran into the kitchen, then ran back into the tent with a bag of chips, "Go to sleep."
"What are we doing tomorrow?" asked Applebloom sticking her head out of the tent.
"We're going to a soccer game for Bab's school," Applejack explained.
"Oooo, now we can see Four Leaf in action" said Sweetie Bell doing the same as Applebloom.
Flam
It's kinda interesting to think about what Applejack will do when Applebloom starts taking an interest in colts.
"Four Leaf?" Applejack questioned.
"Bab's coltfriend," Scoodaloo explained as she joined her friends.
"No he's not, we're just friends," Babs spoke quickly through the tent window.
"Denial," Sweetie Bell sang making Babs blush.
"Coltfriend or not, ya'll aren't gonna make a good first impression if you're plum-tuckered out," Applejack laughed.
"Goodnight, Applejack!" the fillies called going back into their tent.
"Night girls," Applejack called back.
"Lucky Star, truth of dare?" asked Spike as Flash walked in and sat next to him.
"Truth," Lucky Star answered.
"Which one of the girls is most attractive, and why?" asked Spike.
Lucky Star looked around at the other stallions as the thought long and hard, "Rainbow Dash, because Soarin' isn't here to kill me."
Emerald Waters
That's actually a really smart answer.
Suddenly Spike burped up a letter, "Hey Flash, an excuse to go check on Twilight."
"Awesome," Flash spoke taking the letter and leaving the room.
Celestia and Luna stood at the top of the watch tower just before the sun was to be raised. "What shall you do while I am sleeping today, sister?" asked Luna.
"Discord asked me to help him pick songs for his band," Celestia explained.
"Did he tell you what he decided to name it?" asked Luna.
"No, what?" Celestia questioned.
"Liquid Pride," Luna answered trying to keep a straight face.
Shining Armor
Why does Discord hate me? Seriously, I never did anything!
Celestia stared at her sister in horror and a bit of amusement, "You must joking."
"I can assure you, I am not," Luna replied mournfully.
"Perhaps he is naming it to lower pony's expectations," Celestia suggested.
"We shall never truly know what is happening in his head," Luna responded, "Or in his dreams."
Applejack, Applebloom, Babs, Sweetie Bell, and Scoodaloo sat on metal bleachers as the soccer teams warmed up. Coco and Trenderhoof came and sat next to Applejack with their faces painted blue. "Face paint?" Trenderhoof offered holding a blue tube of gel.
"No thanks, I'm good," Applejack answered.
Rarity sat working away in her boutique when Fluttershy entered, "Hello Rarity, I was wondering if you needed any help with the dresses."
"I would love some help, Spike is spending the day with the other stallions and Sweetie Bell is coming back from Manehattan tonight, so I am in need of a helper," Rarity explained.
Rarity
I don't know how Applejack can handle all those fillies, I love them but I'd rather be wedding planning.
Applejack
Wedding planning is boring and stressful at the same time, any day I don't have to wedding plan is a good day.
"Okay, what would you like me to do?" asked Fluttershy.
"Well, right now I'm just cutting the fabric for the bridesmare's dresses so could you ple-," suddenly Pinkie Pie burst into the door.
"Rainbow Dash sent a letter!" Pinkie Pie screamed.
"Well read it, darling," Rarity insisted.
"Okay, here we go," Pinkie unfolded the letter and began reading, "Dear friends."
Rainbow Dash voice-over
Recruiting is going really well, I miss you guys so much but it's really awesome travelling around. I can't wait to see you when I get back and tell you all the funny stories. See you around!
Rainbow Dash, the great and awesome and fantastic-ness. (There was more but it had been scribbled out)
"I need to go and let Twilight read this, bye!" Pinkie Pie yelled running out the door.
"Do you ever wish you had as much energy as her?" asked Rarity.
"Oh, all the time," Fluttershy answered.
Back at the game the second half a colt with a red mane from their team got the ball and started dribbling towards the goal post, "Go, Four Leaf!" Trenderhoof, Coco, Applejack, Applebloom, Babs, Sweetie Bell, and Scoodaloo cheered.
"Wait, how do you know Four Leaf?" asked Coco.
"He's in Bab's class," Applejack explained.
"You're Babs? It's so nice to meet you!" Coco and Babs shook hooves.
Scoodaloo
Could this world get any smaller!
"Nice to meet you too, ma'am," Babs spoke politely.
"I ship it," Trenderhoof whispered quietly under his breath so no one could hear over the crowds cheer for the goal Four Leaf made.
Pinkie Pie walked into the castle of the two sisters to see the stallions (minus Flash and Cheese Sandwich) standing around, "Hey guys, where's Twilight?"
"In the library," Spike answered.
"Well, duh," Pinkie Pie chirped hopping away, "What are you guys doing?"
Flam
I get it, Twilight's always in the library, how would I have even known that?
"We're going to play sardines, we already picked teams were just waiting for Flash and Cheese" Flim answered.
"Cool, have fun!" Pinkie Pie called entering the library, "Twilight, I got a letter from Rainbow Dash."
"Awesome, let me see," Twilight spoke turning away from her conversation with Flash and took the letter.
Rainbow Dash
I know, they love me.
"Alright, I'll see you later, Twilight," Flash spoke turning away.
"Bye, Pinks," said Cheese Sandwich.
Pinkie gave Cheese a quick kiss on the lips, "Bye, Cheesie!" Flash looked wide eyed at Twilight whose jaw dropped, Flash quickly turned and followed Cheese Sandwich out of the room and Twilight got rid of her shocked expression.
The sun was starting to set as Big Mac, Flim, and Flam walked back to the farm house. "You think Applejack and Applebloom are back?" asked Flim.
"Let's find out," Flam walked through the front door, "Honey, I'm home!"
"Flam, Applebloom is sleeping!" Applejack scolded quietly from the kitchen.
"Yay, you're home!" Flam cheered quietly.
Applebloom
I think our family needs Applejack because she's the matriarch of the family for when Granny passes and she makes the big decisions.
"Y'all need to get to sleep, cider season starts at sunrise," Applejack spoke walking back into the kitchen.
Big Mac and Flam went upstairs as Flim followed Applejack into the kitchen where she sat looking over the cider season plans. Flim gently nuzzled his nose into Applejack's cheek, "I missed you."
"I missed you too," Applejack nuzzled back.
Okay, so the current timeline in the story is mid-summer so we are going to skip ahead to; after cider season, when Rainbow Dash is back, and school is starting for Applebloom and the CMC. Next chapter will be in about a month, thanks for reading!
Please Review.
