[Spark's POV]
I took off from Rainbow Dash's house and went back towards the center of town, I had no clue where Sweet Apple Acres was in relation to Dash's house. I was soon in Ponyville, walking down the main street. The streets were empty, save a few ponies setting up shops and cleaning the roads.
There was another pony walking towards me that looked way different from the rest. She was white and black, striped. I've never seen one, but I once saw a magazine with an animal that looked really similar to her. I think it's called a zebra. I'm not sure though, like I said, I only saw it in a magazine.
She caught sight of me staring at me and made her way to me.
"Hello der' young one!" She said with a deep throaty voice, she almost sounded like my friend Tammy, who I think is Jamaican, or some sort of Caribbean. "You are one strange pony!" She said while glancing me over. "A blank flank mature pony, tis' truly interesting."
I had to come up with a response. "Uh, I guess I'm just taking my time finding my special talent." Man, that was lame.
"Hmmmm.." she continued glancing me over. "A ha!" She exclaimed, I was starting to get worried. She reached back into her saddlebag and pulled out a purple flower. Taking a few petals in her hoof she crushed them up and threw them over me. She seemed shocked, but then a big smile crept across black snout.
"What this is revealed by this simple flower, is the work of some great mystical power. A creature of Equestria you are not, be careful, for the pursuit become hot." After finishing her rhyme she sauntered off down the street.
I sat down in the street and rubbed my eyes.
"What the hell just happened?" I asked aloud. A green pony who was watching just shrugged his shoulders and continued sweeping in front of his shop. Note to self, stop talking to yourself out loud.
I looked back to the green pony "Hey, which way is Sweet Apple Acres?" I asked him. He pointed down the road that was between his shop and Sugar Cube Corner. I thanked him and took off running down the road.
I arrived at Apple Acres in a few minutes. I walked through the front gate and quickly saw Apple Bloom carrying some empty baskets towards the apple trees, I ran up to her.
"Oh Hiya Spark! What are yer' doin here?" She asked with bright eyes.
I was out of breath, "I ran….here….from town…need…to talk….to …Apple…Jack…" I gasped out.
"Why didn't you jus' fly?" I facehoofed at that. "Anyway AppleJack is in the south field." She pointed behind me.
"Thanks!" I told her as I headed the way she pointed.
It was enough to find her, I just had to follow the loud thumping sound.
She was kicking trees with both her hind legs, guessing that was what the sound was. When she kicked the tree every apple fell down into some baskets that were placed around the base of the tree. For some reason it amazed me how strong she was, I figured she was a country girl through and through, but damn she was strong. I made a mental note to not piss her off.
I got an idea, I flew up into the trees quietly and when she turned her back to where I was, I hovered just over her silently. I quickly placed my hooves over her eyes. Before I could say 'Guess who?' I got thrown off of her into a tree, face first of course.
"Again with the face!" I yelled rubbing my nose. When I moved my hoof, I saw that I had ended upside down against the tree. It actually wasn't that uncomfortable.
"Spark? What the hay are you doing here?" She asked while walking over to where I landed.
"What aren't you glad to see me?" I said through a big smile
"Well of course I'm glad to see yer, but weren't ya'll supposed to go to Cloudsdale with Dash?" She said while helping me up.
I just rubbed my neck and looked off in the distance. "I told her I should probably get to know Ponyville a little better first. She was okay with it." AJ just looked at me hard for a couple seconds then calmly asked.
"She tried kissing you didn't she?"
There was no use denying it. "Ya, she kissed me." AppleJack was angry, it wasn't hard to figure that out. She let out a long sigh. "It's okay, I figured that crazy mare would do somethin like that. She's had her on you since you got here." "She wasn't the only one though, right?" I asked her. She just blushed, I picked her chin up and kissed her on the lips. She tasted just like apples. I broke the kiss and opened my eyes to see her just standing there, eyes closed, longing for more. She finally open her eyes and when she saw me laughing just pulled her straw hat over her eyes and blushed.
"Aww, Come on Apple, no need to be embarrassed." I lifted up hat and just looked into her eyes.
"I was really hoping to get all this work done before ya came round." She mumbled.
"I'll help you finish it later. Let's go see if Pinkie has anything good for breakfast." I gave her a nudge and we headed into town.
