After finally finishing up her stunt work Dash waited and hoped that Apple Jack didn't forget of what they were going to do today. Not long after couple of minutes of waiting Apple Jack appeared. Bout time you showed up. Rainbow said annoyingly. Apple Jack said nothing. Too tired and confused as too what was really going on. And Dash didn't bother to take notice of this when she said to come on. But she and A.J walked Rainbow notice Dusk walking towards and said. Ah egghead. Good to see ya. Huh? Dusk said confused. Hey have you been fellowin me? Apple Jack Said to him. Before Dusk could answer Dash said to him. Alright this is what I want you to do. She handed him what looked like a stopped watch. Now you get to time me when I do my stunt but don't start when I give the word. Now Apple Jack. Dash directed her to what looked like baseball pitching machine. Now. Rainbow told her. When I say Im ready I want you fire these base balls at me. Apple Jack still half asleep,but when when Rainbow told her she wanted her to do, her eyes opened wide and you gone off rock?! No. Dash explained. While you fire those balls at me,I'll be dodging them with amazing speed and coordination. Dusk too was uncomfortable with this with his face in fear and doubt. But Rainbow assured them with her Fabulous flips and spins the balls won't even touch her. Now. She said. 1 2 3 go! With that Dusk started up the stop watch and Rainbow flew but stopped Abruptly when she realized that the baseballs that was suppose to be firing at her didn't come. Hey what gives? Stopping the watch Dusk looked over and saw that A.J. had fallen asleep. Flying over Rainbow Dash yelled. Hey APPLE JACK! Which instantly woke her up. Uh .. what's going on? Focus. Rainbow told her. Oh uhhh…. What was suppose to do. Grrrrr. You suppose to fire these baseballs at me. Dash chastised. What? Fire these base balls AT ME! Dash angerly repeated to Apple Jack. Alright if you say so. As. A.J. went for the controls. No wait. I don't mean now! Rainbow tried to explain to her but it was too late. Seeing what was happening Dusk immediately dropped the watch and pointed his staff at Rainbow creating a barrier around her body just like he did when NightMare Moon came. Dusk magic manage to absorb some of the blasts coming from the on slot of baseballs from the machine. And when last ball came out Rainbow Dash was already on the ground. Rainbow!Dusk shouted with concern as he ran towards her lying body. With big yawn a jaded Apple Jack said. Well with that settled I'm going to go see Pinkie Pie. Watching his farm friend leave Dusk shouted again. No wait Apple Jack! But his words fell on deaf tired ears. Before looking back at Rainbow he thought he heard her groan. while looking at her she opened her eyes. Egg head? She managed to say. Don't worry. He said to her. I'll take you to the hospital. Then I'll deal with Apple Jack. He thought. As he Carried a barely Conscious Rainbow Dash on his back.
At Sugar Cube Conner Pinky hummed to herself as she waited patiently for Apple Jack to arrive. Once she heard the front door opened Pinkie Pie looked and saw it was her friend. Apple Jack! She said in her usual cheery voice. And just like Rainbow she was oblivious to her obvious tiredness. Now come on let's be on way to the kitchen. Pinkie told Apple Jack as she slowly fellowed behind. In the back of the bakery the two girls got themselves ready to make the delicious muffins they promised to bake. Pinkie read the ingredients while A.J. Made and served them. After pouring the nutmeg and cinnamon the two ingredients colors reminded Apple Jack of the Dirt and soil on her families farm. Dirt She thought in her sleep deprived state. Without even thinking what she was doing she went to the back window of the kitchen bakery and found a gardening box. Scooping two cups from the shelf garden A.J poured it into the mixing bowl. Pinky with her nose in the cook book took no notice of this. These recipes are so delicious to read. Pinky told her exhausted farm friend. Not long after the two friends were done. Out front a large crowd of people were waiting for the free muffins they were told. Soon Pinkie Pie and Apple Jack come out with dozens of muffins ready to Pinkie Pie shouted. Alright everyone time to dig in. As everyone grabbed themselves a muffin Pinky included she than saw that Apple Jack was leaving. Hey where you going? She asked her. Aren't you going to eat? Naw. A.J. told her. I gots to go help Flutters than I'm heading back to the ranch. Okey dokey. Pinkie said as she ate. While at the hospital Dusk and Rainbow were impatiently waiting for the doctor to come out with results of the injures Dash herself suffered. Though her bruises were bandaged the staff wanted to see if anything else was wrong or damaged. As if the walk from where Rainbow performed her stunt,and to where Ponyville hospital was wasn't long enough. Though he could've flown but he wasn't used to carrying anyone with him when he was flying and didn't want to risk injuring himself or risk injuring Rainbow even further. Though Dusk could've used his magic to teleport but the lavender haired prince had a feeling he would need to conserve as much magic as he could on the account what was going on with Apple Jack. Dash made a loud sigh. And asked what are those egghead doctors doing? As it had been 30 minutes. As she laid in the hospital bed while Dusk sat in a chair. I wonder if I should visit Big Mac again. Dusk thought. But as soon as he stood up a doctor finally came in and Rainbow asked what what's the story doc? Am I going to live or not? Well…The doctor from the severe bruising everything seems to be fine no artery damage,no organ damage. No sign of trauma. So am I free to leave? Asked Dash. Well yes butt… The doctor Told her. I suggest you take easy for a few days before you do any of those intense stunts of Yours. and continued. You should be great full your boyfriend here was there protect you with his magic. After hearing this Dusk face turned red both out of embarrassment and annoyance. I'm not her boyfri…Before Dusk could finished his sentence Nurse Red Heart unexpectedly came into the room. Doctor. She said while trying to catch her breath. We have an urgent situation in the lobby. What is it? He asked her. A crowd of people came in and said they were just at Sugar Cube Conner and suddenly they were feeling I'lll after eating the muffins that were serve to them. I think we're dealing with a food poisoning crises. Great that's just want we need. The doctor annoyingly said. Something tells me Apple Jacks involved in this. Dusk said to himself. In the lobby hundreds of people crowded the entryway some were standing some were setting down while a small portion of them were lying on the floor complaining about their stomachs. Dusk saw a blonde winged girl partially standing while holding her stomach. Saying oh muffins muffins why did you have to taste so good and make my tummy so rumbly. Looking closer he notice she was cross eyed and thought to himself. Isn't that the girl who nearly crushed me along with Spike and few other people with a piano. Thinking back Dusk and his assistant we're at the park one day, checking out the scenery with a bunch of other people. Till suddenly a piano had crashed just a few inches from where they were standing,looking up Dusk saw a blonde winged girl in delivery clothes looking down at them. After a moments staring she made a small giggle and said. Oopsie sorry about that. As she and the other wing people came and took the piano. Hey look over there. Rainbow said pointing to Dusk. Seeing who it was he said somewhat surprised voice. Pinkie? Oh I don't feel so good. She groaned. With her face in slight green color. Pinkie how did this happen? Dusk ask her. I don't know. We just baking muffins,we'll actually Apple Jack was making them I just reading the ingredients that we needed. With that Dusk slapped his hand to his head in disbelief. After the muffins were made. Pinkie Pie continued they smelled delicious but for some reason when I bit into one of it tasted a little like dirt. After saying that Pinkie's stomach growled and her face turned completely green. Ohh she groaned and ran towards a garbage can and puked in it. Dusk notice that she dropped something onto the floor. It was a partially eatin muffin,picking it up Dusk saw there was indeed dirt inside of it and something else. Using his right hand he managed to quickly pull it out. Upon discovery the lavender hair prince felt a sickening sensation in his veins. Hey egghead watcha doin? Rainbow asked him. Looking at Dusks right hand she notice something between his index and middle finger. A small earth worm. She also notice Dusk left hand was the partially eatin muffin and asked him. Was that worm inside that muffin? Ewww. Eww was right,the possibility that this small slithering creature was inside something editable nearly made Dusk nauseous. Attention everyone! Shouted Nurse Red Heart. I know all of you are sick but if all cooperate this will be quick and swift. Now come and fellow me. Out of the hospital Rainbow asked Dusk of what he was going to do.I gotta go find Apple Jack before she creates anymore chaos due to her lack of sleep and her inability to let anyone help her on the farm. Very well see ya egghead. And before Dusk could flap his wings he felt a pair of arms wrapped around his torso. Uhh Rainbow? He said to her. I just thought I give you a hug as a thanks saving my butt again. Cutie. With this Dusk's face turned red and immediately flew as fast as he could once broken of Rainbow's snickered as she watched the lavender haired haired friend flew as fast as possible. Not bad. She said to herself. Impressed with his flying. I taught him well, she thought. She also couldn't stop thinking about Dusk's reaction when the doctor said that he was her boyfriend. Well maybe will see.
Ohh Who's a good bunny? Fluttershy said as petted her rabbit Angel. You are, yes you are. while giving her rabbit attention Fluttershy Looked up at the sky,and was happy the weather was nice. It would make things so much easier for her and Apple Jack to heard the new born baby bunnies. Not too long of waiting when Fluttershy spotted a figure resembling her friend from the farm coming towards her cottage. Hmmm that's thought. As she looked at the way Apple Jack was walking it was if she were exhausted,but it wasn't till A.J. came up close when Fluttershy saw what Rainbow and Pinkie failed to see. Hi Flutters. Apple Jack greeted with her noticeable tired score baggy eyes. Apple Jack are you okay? I'm fine. She replied. Now you were sayin you needed help with ribbons. Uhh rabbits I said rabbits Fluttershy corrected. Oh thats right. So how many of them we handlin? A delirious A.J. Asked. Well.. Fluttershy answered. due to the fast reproduction of Rabbits,I'm not sure how many will heard but we will have a lot of them on our hands. Well I guess I'll go call Winona. Taking a deep breath and placing two fingers in her mouth Apple Jack exhaled with a big whistle and hollered Winona!She made two small whistles. Come girl. Without a moment too soon the Apple families female Boarder Collie rushed to her masters side and awaited for her next command. Seeing the dog a concerned Fluttershy said to her friend. Apple Jack I don't think having Winona here is a good idea. Nonsense. A.J. Told her. Winona is a pro it's very thing she's been trained but… Fluttershy explained. Rabbits are very timid animals especially if their near or around predators. Ah don't worry will make sure they won't get loose. A.J. assured. If you say so As .Fluttershy reluctantly took them both to the field where rabbits were. Alright little ones time to come out . Called The gentle voice of Fluttershy. After a few moments hundreds of the little rabbits heads pop their heads out of the holes they were in and started to scatter around the field. Now let's gather up in middle. She told the small bunnies and that's when Apple and Winona stepped in. You heard the lady got her gather in the middle. Apple Jack told the rabbits sternly as Winona barked and growled. Upon seeing the teeth of the dog or a predator in their eyes the tiny rabbits instantly became spoked. And run away in different directions. Seeing this Winona went to the left as Apple Jack went to the right,and seeing them both Fluttershy called out. Stop your scarring them! Don't worry we know what we're A.J. As she and her dog managed to corner all the bunnies in one area of the field, of course it wasn't where Futtershy wanted them. The now the terrified rabbits became even more scared when Winona and Apple Jack tried to approached them. At the last second they all ran in same direction as fast as they could towards Ponyville. Oh no. Fluttershy said as she saw this.
