Phew, I'm glad it's finally the summer holidays over here so now I don't have to worry about school for another six weeks and focus on other stuff like this and possibly more stories! ^^ Now, I was thinking of another Danny Phantom one, but I'll see if I can think of a clearer plot outline and if not, I might just use one of my old story ideas. But anyways, I've got a rough idea of how the rest of the plot of this story is gonna go, I'm obviously not gonna tell (spoilers), but probably around more than 10 chapters..? I'm not really sure yet o.O
And sorry for the writer's block, there's a lot of distractions around me right when I'm doing these things and I certainly don't want to damage my ears with loud music so the only thing I can do is actually force bad ideas out of me. And for some reason…I'm actually getting lesser time on this than I thought, I hope this doesn't become a daily thing otherwise I'll only be able to do 2 chapters a month! XC
Let's move onto the story ^^ Again, I'm sorry for the delay :(

Twilight felt as if she had picked up more bodies with her horn than she remembered, she only counted four earlier but this time she felt another body and it was extremely heavy but somehow she managed. But they didn't have a safe landing once they reached outside, since Twilight's magic had never supported that much weight on just one small alicorn horn. The light on the outside was moderately better than it was on the inside but it felt as if more light was needed to feel better.
After they had all grunted as they landed unfortunately not so easily on the ground outside the barn, a small silence broke out and then the barn started to creak much louder than before. Not long later, pieces of broken wood started to fall off the roof and the walls of the barn and the entire structure started to wobble then eventually fell to pieces. The ponies had shown no expression at first since they were still recovering from the mild fall, but Twilight was eventually the first one to react and then followed by Applejack as well as Applebloom.
"You creepy winged horn pony! I'll get you for this!" Applejack shouted as well as beginning to chase after Twilight.
Twilight let out a small scream then began to run as fast as she could out into the open fields which contained dead grass and dead branches that had fallen off a little while ago. Twilight wanted to try and teleport but unfortunately she had used most of her energy earlier on teleporting them all out of the crumbling barn.
So, as Twilight panted and ran away from the strong mare, she was trying to think up an idea to get Applejack on their side. But as she thought more clearly, she couldn't think of anything that could convince Applejack because she knew her the best out of all her friends. Twilight actually thought Rainbow Dash would be the hardest but she felt a lot of struggle with Applejack because the earth pony was nowhere near convinced in helping them stop Athanasia to make things better around Equestria and possibly many other places.
"Applejack, please stop and listen to me, I'm a friend!" She called out while still looking ahead as well as still running away from Applejack almost fearlessly.
"You think I'm that easy to convince? All you winged unicorns are all the same!" The farm mare yelled back as she picked up her pace.
Twilight didn't know what to reply with, so she continued running towards the outskirts of Ponyville, she eventually stopped because she didn't want to be locked out of Ponyville again. Around a few seconds or so later, she heard Applejack's hoof steps approaching very quickly. Twilight tried not to panic, but she knows what Applejack is like when she's not herself and it took her an awful lot of courage to get her back to normal that time when Discord had reversed their elements on each other.
The wind was still gusty from before, so as Applejack approached she couldn't see her due to her navy and pink-purple mane blocking her view. She exhaled upwards to try and blow it out of the way but the wind fought back and made her tail blow all the way to the right and it made her back legs shiver in coldness. The galloping stopped as she heard it only a few feet away from her, Twilight's eyes were glued shut since she was afraid of what Applejack would do at this point. She started to break a sweat as she felt the warm and hard exhales of Applejack.
After a few silent moments of just panting, Applejack held her breath for a short moment and then spoke with a harsh tone but surprised as well.
"I don't know what kind of alicorn you are, but you certainly nothin' like the ones I've seen. And don't think I'm still fallin' into one of yer traps, I hate liars like you." She ended with a harsh glare at Twilight.
The young alicorn heard every word she said, but was too afraid to speak, but at the same time, she had no word to reply back to her. So she stood silent unless Applejack demanded words out of her. But Twilight was soon to speak once she heard the sound of more hoof steps approaching and a delicate lady-like voice was heard.
"Rarity, I thought you stayed at the barn?"
"I was going to, Twilight but I just couldn't. It was absolutely filthy and scary there I just had to follow you." The white unicorn explained while making sure that no one was following her.
Applejack turned around quickly with an angered expression on her face. Her muzzle was squished up and her eyes were narrowed at her. Rarity backed away a few steps with a worried look upon her face.
"You keep out of this Rarity, you neat freak!"
Rarity gasped shockingly and then narrowed her eyes at Applejack; Twilight didn't know that these two ponies were enemies. But she would soon find out.
"Applejack, please don't be mean to her. She's my friend." Twilight pleaded.
"Your friend?!" Applejack spat in disgust. "You must be lookin' in the mirror 'cause she's never had any friends!"
Rarity began to tear up as her mouth trembled. "That's not true, Twilight is my friend."
Twilight smiled as she felt herself more confident than she were before. She stretched her legs so she seemed taller than everypony and looked right through Applejack until the earth pony responded. Rarity's eyes were swelling with tears and her beautiful eyelashes smudged as the mascara ran down her pale white face.
"You put her under some kind of spell, didn't ya?" Applejack exclaimed while hoof pointing at Twilight.
Twilight inhaled and then exhaled deeply, she slowly and gently lowered Applejack' hoof down. "No. Look, I know you think that because I'm an alicorn this means that I'm the enemy due to my status. But believe me when I say this Applejack, I was once a unicorn-"
"A unicorn? You mean, like Rarity? I hate unicorns! In fact, I hate any kind of pony that can whizz up magic with a horn stuck to their head!"
"I'm not finished. Before everything was like this, you and I shared a special bond that was unbreakable. We shared this with 5 other ponies, and Rarity was one of those five. I know it may seem hard to believe at first. I know that you're not easy to convince, but believe me when you hear this, you are part of the elements of harmony and you represent honesty."
Applejack was speechless with a depressed-like expression on her face but with her green eyes almost popping outwards, she didn't know what to say. She felt as if that there were a connection but it was very faint, and she knew how much being honest meant to her. It was shocking to believe, she looked in the young alicorns eyes. She could see that she was hopeful and almost desperate, but she didn't seem manipulative or dangerous. Although Applejack wasn't fully convinced yet.
"How do I know you're not playing me and actually want to do something horrible to me and my family?" She asked while raising one eyebrow.
"You may not know of the elements of harmony. I wasn't expecting you to know what they were anyway, but I know that deep down inside you is the real honest and kind Applejack I once knew who was brave and agile."
Applejack inhaled and exhaled loudly and deeply as her eyes slowly closed. She thought about this, she knew how much of a friendly fighter she used to be before all this chaos had rained down on everyone. Maybe Twilight was right, she thought. But she still didn't feel trust towards Rarity.
That's all I can squeeze out of me at this point unfortunately, I really wanted to do more but I just can't at the moment. Don't worry; I plan on having another 3 or 4 chapters up before the end of the month/year. I just hope I don't get writer's block again cuz I know how much you guys love this story.
