The Origins of Applejack 1 Chapter 24: Emotional Rollercoaster Ride, a my little pony fanfic

-Big Mac-

I was in a tent at the base of the Castle of Two Sisters. I looked at the words on my phone. They were from Aj informing me of Granny Smith's death. It hit me hard and because I read it before the rescue mission, my depressed state almost cost me a few of my men. I just stared at the screen to try and beleive what I waa reading.

"Hey Mac!" I heard outside of my tent. The call of my name brought me out of my trance, "You okay Boss Man?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just got some upsetting news was all."

"That's a damn shame dude. Why not come and drink with us? We'll trash that old commander woman."

"That old Commander happened to be my grandmother," I stood up in my tent and because I was so tall, my back craned to compensate for the low roof. I stood fully up and tore through the roof of the tent, "She is also dead. The new Commander happens to be my sister. I do not tolerate any one talking bad about my sister. I can only imagine how intolerant she is if she were to ever find out."

Major Sargeant Note looked at me with such fear, "You would wise to heed my words. My sister isn't as forgiving as I am. You should know; you and I went to training together."

"I know," he shrank back a little, "I apologise."

"Looks like you're on Night Watch Notebook for tonight," I walked passed him.

"Yes sir," he bowed before me as I kept walking.

Down the way, I saw some movement, "Everyone! Battle Stations!" I commanded as I ran toward Camp Centre, "Battle Stations! We Got Movement! Rogue Gunnies Three And Four With Me!" I was handed a Plasma Blaster. I just charged down the street with my two men. We slowed down when we got close to the corner where I saw the shadow move behind, "Stick to my four," I whispered hoarsely to the man on my right. I whipped around the corner and pointed my weapon at two girls roughly making out. Now, I'm all for girl-on-girl action; but when it's your sister and her girlfriend. Ugh! I shuddered at the sight of Aj pinning Dashal against the wall with both of their wondering and groping hands all over each other, "You two couldn't wait until after this war was over?" I closed my eyes and placed a palm over them.

"Sorry," I heard Aj pant, "Just the sight of Dashal with a gun gets me hot so fucking much," I slowly moved my hand and cracked one eye open to see Aj now hugging Dashal from behind. Aj planted wet kissed up and down Dashal's long slender neck.

"I know that you two love each other, but c'mon! Seriously? I don't need to see my sister making out."

"What are you saying? Are you saying that I'm not supposed to show Dashal how much I love her."

"That's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying, "dude, that's just gross"," I smiled.

"Oi, just come off it, okay?" Dashal smiled.

"Well, since you two are here. Can you two scope the castle for any supplies? Like food, water, medicine."

"Yeah, I got you," Aj dipped her chin as she walked around Dashal. When she did, she smacked the rainbow haired girl's ass as she said, "C'mon beautiful. Let's go some searching," the way she said "searching", made it sound like they were going to do a lot more than just search for what I asked. I didn't really care since everything is under control now. On top of that, they're still teenagers; their hormones are so out of whack, they can't see straight. They need this.

-Dashal-

It's been almost an hour and Aj have loaded up three sleds of what we needed. We were now just looking through Princess Celestia's room at all of the cool technology and botany books. I looked across the room and looked at the side of Aj. She was reading a book on Astrophysics. I noticed also that she took her hair down. It reached all the way down to her hips and her freckled cheek just seemed to glow. She was more beautiful than Cosmia herself. Especially in her all black Blauer Uniform and her gun on her hip.

A woman like her was so rare. Sexy, yet she doesn't like to show it off. She is also brilliant but not flaunting it like some people do. She was a humble soul and I'm glad that she's mine. All mine. Aj must have sensed me staring because she looked straight at me, "What?"

"Oh nothing," I said playfully as I set the book on Botany down and slowly walked over to her, "Just thinking is all."

"Thinking about what?" she closed the book and hugged it into her chest.

"Just thinking about how beautiful you are," I made it over to her and loosely slung my arms around her shoulders.

"Oh yeah?" she kissed my collarbone lightly, "Is that all?"

I mewled at her touch for a few seconds. I also loved the fact that she is a good person, but she could be bad or in this case... really, really, naaaaaauuuutyyyy, "I also was thinking- Eep!" I yelped when she nipped at my collarbone. I gasped when I heard her quietly chuckle, "Ass?" I laughed.

"C'mon," she wrapped her hands around my breasts qnd groped them, "I want you to cum for momma?" she whispered in my ear. I brought my chest closer to her as began planting tiny wet kisses up my neck. When she got to my jawline, Aj nipped at it all the way up to my earlobe. I moaned all the way and even louder when she began licking the outside of my ear. I hated how she teased me because she knows that it drives me crazy.

Sadly, like all good things, our playtime came to an end when we heard gunfire echo throughout the lower levels of the castle. Aj grabbed our guns and shoved mine into my chest without a word. And without another word, she rushed out of ths room with me following close behind her.

We followed the sound of the gunshots all the way down to the Boiler Basement Level. There were three men pulling on a chain that was connected to the neck of a fucking zombie tiger. The chain dangled a little behind the last man because it was connected to some kind of large metal ball. Big Mac and the two others were shooting at it, but the bullets weren't enough to stop it.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Aj move. When I looked she was already at the large metal ball and hugged it. Next to it was a hole that led to the secondary basement floor that was filled with water. When Aj lifted it, "Let Go!" she grunted before tossing the ball down the hole. The chain pulled the tiger along with it and the beast disappeared.

From out of nowhere, a second smaller tiger jumped out of the hole in the wall next to Big Mac and slashed him with a paw, "BIG MAC!" Applejack screeched and unintentionally caught the attention of the second beast.

The tiger slowly walked up to her with its bloodied fangs bared, "Hey!" we all looked and saw Big Mac using a sledgehammer to help himself up. When he was up, he continued speaking, "I ain't done wit' you yet bitch!" he lifted the hammer and tossed it; catching the tiger right in the side of the head. The metal seemed to have melded with the brain of the tiger as the tiger's neck whiplashed and snapped. The tiger fell to the ground motionless and all was quiet. Well, all aside from Big Mac's hoarse chuckle, "That's what I thought," he laughed before falling to his back.

Aj ran over to him and slid to her knees next him. She sat on his hips and tried wiping all the blood from his face, "Maccie? Maccie?" she shook him a little, "I can go get help. You're gonna be okay. Just stay with me. Talk to me."

"It's okay," Big Mac spat up a little blood, "I'm not gonna make it."

"Yes you are," she cried, "Yes you are. You just gotta keep talking to me, okay? Keep talking."

"Here," Big Mac pulled a black and long, slender box from his side cargo pocket. He shoved it into Aj's hand, "Take these."

Aj opened it and I couldn't see what it was, "No, I can't take these. You're gonna be okay."

"Just learn how to let go my sister," he placed a hand on his chest and dug through the fabric of his suit and shirt. He pulled a necklace from around his neck and handed it to her. The necklace bore just a single golden coin.

"Your lucky coin," she smiled then scoffed, "Guess it wasn't so lucky after all."

"Okay," Big Mac said, "It is my time," Aj pulled out a strand of hay from the box and placed it in his mouth, "Thanks," he sighed before rolling his eyes back and closing his eyes.

"Mac?" Aj shook him again, "Mac?!" and again, "Macintosh! Don't leave me!"

"Aj!" a man tried pulling Aj from her dead brother, but she resisted and fought him off, "Aj, he is gone now. Your shouting won't bring him back," Aj allowed him to pull her away. As she got up, she turned around and hugged him, "Yes, yes. I know, I know," he hugged her back and tried calming her down.

"Aj?" I stepped forward as she turned around to pull away from the hug, "Come with me," I gave her my hand. She took it and I pulled her with me as we walked away. Aj sobbed as we slowly wandered the halls. I know she likes to wander some times to clear her head.

After a few more bends, we hooked elbows and I pulled her close to me. She leaned her head against my shoulder and it just warmed my heart. Seeing her at her most vulnerable, despite her trying to be a strong person, was just so amazing to me. There's not a lot of people that she would just be this close with. Usually she would just push people away so she wouldn't allow them the opportunity of seeing her cry.

"Two people in one day," she hiccuped, "I don't think I can take much more of this."

"Oh honey," I used my free hand to stroke her hair, "You'll be okay."

"I don't need people saying that to me," she pulled away from me, "I won't be okay. First I lose my parents, then Granny Smith, and now Big Mac. If I lose you too because of this, I am just gonna fucking lose it."

"You won't lose me Aj," I held her face to look in her eyes, "I am going to be with you no matter what."

"I hope so," she smiled weakly as I wiped the rest of her tears from her cheeks and eyes.

"There's that pretty smile," I smiled back at her as her smile grew even more.

"Uh, excuse me?" we looked to my left and saw an old man with blue hair and an eye patch. There was also a long jagged scar running down his face.

"Who are you?" Aj pulled away from me to face him.

"I sincerely apologize to you Applejack, but I must keep my identity a secret."

"Why? Who are you working for? Draganoids? Yakastantians? Griffins?"

"No," he smiled, "I am all Equestrian," he pulled out an old badge from his pocket. It showed a picture of him when he was younger. It looked like the badge Aj and I have. It read: Name: XX-XX; Occupation: Equestrian Secret Service; Badge #: 292-1A-Sec12.

"Sorry it is so old," he put it away, "I was forced into hiding to protect Equestria and you Applejack."

"Who are you?" Aj growled.

The man just simply reached out and touched her cheek. Aj gasped at the touch as her eyes went wide, "I think I know who you are."

"I am surprised," Aj hugged him and he smiled widely, "You were so young."

"I was told that you were dead," she buried her face into his chest.

"I do wish to keep it that way my love," this man hugged her oh so tightly and lovingly, "There are forces at work trying to take you from this world and the others. And I am the only one that can buy you enough time."

"Okay," Aj looked up at him, "I read the old Archives of you and I know."

"What are you two talking about?" I asked.

They just continued their conversation as though they didn't hear me, "But they say that you and her are dead."

"That's just a cover story. She is alive and well somewhere."

"Will I see her too?"

"In due time young one. I'm just glad that I can see you now."

"What aren't you telling me?"

"You will face a man that will look and sound like me; but he is not me. No matter what he says. I will die before he tries to convince you of that. No, I am not him because you felt it. You felt that I am not him. You won't feel it with him. He works with Grim which means that his mind is warped and evil."

"I don't want you to leave," Aj hugged his abdomen tighter, "But I know you must. It's the only way."

"Do you remember when you were five and I sang you that song?" Aj nodded then began singing along with whoever this guy was.

"If I had words to make a day for you, I sing you a morning golden and new
