Chapter 12: Task 2: Honesty

Location: Downtown Equestria, 3:45 PM

I was a wanderer. I've always have been. I was used to running around town, feeling free. (Author's Note: It's true.) Back then, I was disowned by my family, just because I wanted to be on my own. So I left and this journey began. (AN: Also true, except for this story.) I didn't know that feud would turn into an epic adventure.

I found the Sweet Apple Acres shop on the corner of Discord St. and Chalysis Ave. and I saw Big McIntosh carrying crates of fizzy apple cider into the truck. I walked up to him and greeted myself.

"Hi, is this the Apple Store? The fruit, I mean?"

"Eeyup." Big Mac said his catch phrase.

"Thanks." I walked into the store and saw Aura, stacking cans of applesauce, into the shape of an apple. I was about to say "hi" but he cut me off.

"If you say "Hi" to me, this apple will topple." he said in a low voice.

"Oh, uhh, ok?" I stood back and bumped into someone. It was Applejack. When she stood up and saw me, I can tell that she didn't trust me.

"What are y'all doin' here?" she crossed. "I thought y'all were tryin' all ya can to make sure Twilight doesn't get the crown."

"Well," I stammered. "I- -I..." Her face was so hard to look at at the moment. "I... *sighs*... I need to find some way to be honest. And you're the only one that can help me."

"Why would y'all need to be honest?"

"Because I need to perform five tasks before I can become a candidate for the Fall Formal Prince." I handed her the form that Celestia gave me. Applejack was reading it carefully. Finally, after almost passing out of waiting, she handed the papers back.

"Honesty, eh?" She was still mad, but not as mad as it's going to get if I become more honest about my past. "Well, I'll help y'all, on one condition."

"What's that?"

"Y'all have to give half yer votes to Twilight."

THAT'S GOING CALL OF DUTY! I thought, but then, an evil thought came in my mind: What if I fail on becoming the Prince? So, even if I did succeeded in my tasks, I know Twilight would win. So...

"Deal." I shook Applejack's hand and we walked into the back room. She turned on a lamp and stared at me.

"Alright, but in order to be honest with me, y'all gonna have to tell me a secret." She gave me a smile, but it didn't last long. "I can tell if ya lie, so may as well tell me." My heart pumped. The only thing I have to offer was our departure from Mobius. She wouldn't believe me if I said I'm from the world of Sonic the Hedgehog. So, I told her.

"I'm not from this world...I'm from Mobius."

I can tell Applejack was confused, so I filled her in on my history, how we got to Canterlot High and why I'm in the ballot for the Fall Formal Princess. It was a long explanation. Finally, Applejack was shocked.

"So you and the Freedom Fighters are here, because y'all need to find the Chaos Emeralds and get back home?"

"Yeah."

"Wow. And y'all were tellin' the truth, too. This is heavy. So that's why you're going for the Princess, so you can get the Emeralds. Twilight isn't..."

I know it's rude to cut somebody else, but I can't let AJ tell anyone else. Not yet, anyway. "Don't tell anyone this, okay?"

"Well, ok. Thank ya fer being honest with me." She kissed my cheek and I blushed a little. It was 7:43 and I was surprised. We were in there for 4 hours and Aura gave me a glare of disappointment and left. I left after him, but Apple Bloom stopped me.

"Mr. Swift, can I have your autograph?" She held up her notepad and gave me a pencil. I hesitated and also drew a picture of me in my Mobian form. (See my profile picture for more) She looked at it and was amazed.

"WOW! You made your own Sonic character? Cool!" She gave me a big hug. And I left to Pt. Mobius. The first thing I'm going to do tomorrow is either Generosity or Laughter.
