Chapter 7: Target: Sweet Apple Acres

Jadeite put on a pair of sunglasses and a straw hat and began to think to think of a name.

"Picker Jade." He thought, donning his Picker Jade persona.

He teleported to Sweet Apple Acres. He saw a lather large stallion plowing the feuds.

"Excuse me." Said "Picker Jade", "I was working for work and I was hoping that you were hiring."

"Picker Jade" knew that he might have to use a slight suggestion spell.

"Eeyup." Said the Colt (who was Big McIntosh), "I was think about looking for help. After what happened a few months ago with my sister."

"Thank you." Said "Picker Jade."

"So what's your name?" asked Big McIntosh.

"Picker Jade." Said Jadeite.

Applejack was coming back to place some apples in the apples sellers when she saw her older brother talking to "Picker Jade"

"Who's this fella?" asked Applejack joining the conversation.

"This is Picker Jade, he's going to be helping us around the farm." Said Big McIntosh.

Applejack got suspicious. Fortunately she did have a cover to hide her suspension.

"We don't need no help around here." Said Applejack.

"What about that time…" pointed out Big McIntosh.

"If we needed help, I'd ask my friends for help." Said Applejack.

"I see you're just jealous." Said "Picker Jade", "That you're not the only that can help. After I've been working on an apple farm for years."

"No… I just find it strange that a unicorn would want a job at a farm." Said Applejack.

"My father was an earth pony and forced me to work in the fields… okay…" said "Picker Jade".

Applejack glared at him, thanks her ties to the Element of Honest she knew he was lying.

"I have some errands to run in town." Said Applejack.

Sometime later at the library.

"Are you sure it's Jadeite?" asked Twilight.

"I'm not…" said Applejack, "But I know he's lying about his father."

"Okay, I'll give you that." Said Twilight knowing about how Applejack is able to determine when some pony is lying, "You should just keep an eye on him, see if he's doing anything."

"Gottcha. And I'll call someone if he is Jadeite." Said Applejack.

"How are you going to do that?" asked Twilight.

Applejack was about to say something, but couldn't come up with one.

That was when they heard Spike yell for some reason, he then came down with a box.

"Can you please ask Princess Celestia why she sent this though me?" asked Spike, "She knows that they hurt when they are sent."

Twilight opened the box and found 6 covered wristwatches. One lavender, one purple, one pink, one red, one green and the last pale pink. As well as a very large gem.

Twilight red the letter that came with it.

"These are special communicators I developed. I made these while waiting for Pluto to gain enough strength to handle a Sailor Guardian. I also have Pluto, Neptune and Uranus' with me so that if you need help and the 6 of you can't handle it I'll come over. Signed Princess Luna. P.S. The Gem is for Spike as an apology, I know sending packages hurts him but I wanted to his to get there fast."

"That was nice." Said Spike, his mood changing upon find out about the Gem, he grabbed it and put it his… um… pocket.

"You're not going to eat it now?" asked Applejack.

"I won't be able to eat anything for a while…" mumbled Spike.

Applejack and Twilight put on the green and lavender watches.

"So looks like I don't have to go with my idea." Said Applejack.

"What idea?" asked Twilight.

"Saying a certain phrase to make Pinkie Pie appear and then have her gather you guys." Said Applejack.

Twilight blinked, "It's a good thing you didn't do that." Said Twilight.

"Why does that scare you?" asked Applejack.

"If you ever see Pinkie Pie in a mirror, you'll know why…" sighed Twilight.

Applejack returned to the farm to see "Picker Jade" use his magic to pick the apples using magic, what Applejack didn't' know was that every Apple he picked was getting the energy raining spell placed on it.

"Please don't use magic to the pick the apples." Said Applejack.

"What? Why not?" asked "Picker Jade".

"While I do allow my friend Twilight to do it, you're from a farm. You should do it the apple family way." Said Applejack.

"I'll go ask Big McIntosh then." Said "Picker Jade". He teleported away and in less than a minute he returned, which a grumpy look on his face.

"What did he say?" asked Applejack.

"That I should listen to you since you're my boss as well." Muttered "Picker Jade", "I paraphrased it… but that was the jist."

Applejack bucked some apples from the tree, "Picker Jade" copied her.

Hours later… "Picker Jade" was exhausted.

"So what hind of Farm does your family own?" asked Applejack seeing if he would come up with something else to justify his exhaustion.

"My… dad… owns… a vineyard." Muttered "Picker Jade.", "Just north of San Franciscolt"

She knew he was still lying, but to be fair she had heard that many vineyards often use unicorns to pick the grapes… and there were quite a few vineyards north of San Franciscolt.

However the fact that earlier he said he worked at an Apple Farm for years proved he was lying... granted she already knew he was lying… she just needed more proof.

"I thought earlier you said you've worked for an apple farm for years." Said Applejack.

Picker Jade's eyes widened, he began to sweat.

That was when the Cutie Mark Crusaders arrived.

"You're the new helper aren't you?" asked Apple Bloom.

"Wow! I never saw a unicorn farmer!" said Sweetie.

"Picker Jade" sighed, "What do you want?" he asked.

"Since you're new around here, can you tell us how you got your cutie mark?" asked Apple Bloom.

"Even it is a rock." Pointed our Scootaloo.

"It's not a rock, it's a jade stone." Corrected "Picker Jade".

"Really?" asked Sweetie.

"What does it stand for?" asked Apple Bloom.

"I'd rather not go into details." Said "Picker Jade".

"Please!" all three of them begged.

Maybe it was the exhaustion, maybe it was because he knew Applejack didn't' trust him and she had clearly caught him lying, maybe it was because he found these three annoying.

But he snapped.

"Shut up! Shut up!" he yelled, "I won't tell you the story because you wouldn't under stand what happened 1,000 years ago!"

As it turns out Big McIntosh was there and saw it.

"What are you talking about? Asked Big McIntosh.

That was when Jadeite ditched his disguise. He proceeded to drain Big McIntosh's energy as well as the cutie mark Crusaders.

"Aren't you going to do something?" asked Jadeite with an evil smile.

"What do you mean?" asked Applejack confused.

"I figured it out, why you're so suspicious of me." He said, "You're of the Sailor Guardians!"

"What? No!" yelled Applejack.

That was went Jadeite sent out a beam at Applejack that sent her flying.

"I know you're on of the elements of Harmony! It only seems natural the Princesses would choose you!" said Jadeite.

Applejack gritted her teeth.

"Fire Soul!"

The fireball came from above and Sailor Mars landed next to Applejack.

"You know saving her only proves my theory." Said Jadeite.

"You mean you figured out that you're Sailor Jupiter?" asked Sailor Mars.

Applejack face hoofed.

"Thank you for confirming my suspensions." He said.

Applejack glared at him.

"Jupiter Power! Make-up!" she called out.

With that Applejack transformed into Sailor Jupiter.

"Please tell you got the communicator the Princesses sent you." Mumbled Sailor Jupiter.

Sailor Mars nodded, "I already called the others" she said.

Jadeite merely laughed.

"You know with the information I have right now, I feel like I don't need to send a Youma!"

That was when the other Sailor Guardians arrived.

"Jadeite." Muttered Sailor Moon.

"I win this time Guardians, thanks to your idiot friend." Said Jadeite.

That was when he teleported away.

"What is talking about?" asked Sailor Mercury.

"Sorry, its my fault" sighed Sailor Mars.

"I don't blame you." Said Sailor Jupiter.

"What are you talking about?" asked Sailor Moon.

"He found out who I am." Said Sailor Jupiter.

That one sentence worried all of them.

"Don't worry it will be fine! I bet that he'll just keep it a secret to himself until he find out all of our identities." Said Sailor Venus.

"I hope you're right." Said Sailor Jupiter.

And as it turns out she was…

Jadeite had decided to learn the other five's identities.

"Perhaps the other's identities are also the Elements of Harmony." Said he said, "If I remember correctly Sugar Cube Corner is where the Element of Laughter works… maybe she's a Sailor Guardian as well…

Thins were now getting very serious and who knew what was going to happen. All Jadeite knew is that chances it was going to go into his favor.

Next Time: Jadeite comes to the conclusion that Pinkie can't be a Sailor Guardian. Oh the irony, what's more is that he got a job being her new assistant. Will he succeeded and gather as much energy, or will go insane from Pinkie's behavior... or is it possibly both!
