"Hey! Hey! Are ya alright!?" A voice of female voice with a slight tone of masculinity was heard, and he could hear weird sounds that could be recognized as galloping
'Damn, they can talk? Is that english? No one told me that.' the overlord thought
His eyelids slowly closed as the creature in front of him yelled.
"Do ya hear meh? hey! don't pass out-!
And he lost consciousness.
"Cutie Mark Crusaders!" Apple Bloom said out loud as she stood in an elevated position
"Are we ready today to find our cutie mark?!"
"Without a doubt we are!" Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle said as they raised their hooves in the air
"So, what are gonna do today!?" Apple bloom asked them
"We have done sky-dive, bungee jumping, and etc, we still haven't got our cutie mark, so let's-"
However, they got interrupted, as an unexpected sound made them turn their attention to the entrance.
The door bursted open, the three Crusaders turned their attention to whoever caused the noise.
It was AppleJack who burst through the door.
"Apple jack?" Apple Bloom said as she saw her sister panting as if she had run all the way here.
"Apple bloom, I searched you the entire town *pants* I need you to take care of somepony" AppleJack said
"What-why? What happened?" Apple Bloom asked as she stepped down to approach Apple Jack
"I got apple trees to work on, and I can't take care of another pony while working on the farm sugarcube" Apple Jack responded as she walked closer to her
"Come on!" She turned around and quickly headed to the door
"But-" Apple Bloom wanted to say
AppleJack stopped and turned around
"No but! come right now!" but Apple Jack interrupted her, and hurried her to follow
"Why?!" Apple bloom asked
"Stop asking questions, I know it's sudden, but I need you to take care of a pony"
Apple Bloom looks away
"Fine.." She said
And they started galloping to the door and where ever AppleJack went
"Wait, we're also coming!" Scootalo and Sweetie Belle said as they stood up
AppleJack n' Bloom started running together, Scootalo jumped on her scooter and Sweetie Belle started galloping behind AppleJack
"What happened to that pony?" Scootalo asked AppleJack as she raced beside her
"There is a pony that seems like he really needs help, while im working on the farm, I need you three to look over him" AppleJack answered
[A few minutes later]
They finally got where the one in need of help is
"He is in our house?" Apple bloom asked
"Yeah, he's sleeping in your bed" AppleJack said to her
"M-my bed? Why my bed?!" AppleBloom almost yelled
"Because yes SugarCube, I gotta go work on the farm now. Take care of him" Applejack said
And she turned around and started walking to a horde of apple trees
The three Crusaders watched as the cowboy pony walked away
"Are you ponies thinking what im thinking?" Scootalo said to them
"Uh, no?" AppleBloom and Sweetie belle answered her question
"We could get a cutie mark! Come on let's go!" Scootalo said
Both of them waited for a second
"That's a great idea!" Both of them cheered up
And three of them high-5 at the same time.
Scootalo raced to the door
But she suddenly stopped
"But.. Where is your bedroom?" she asked
Apple Bloom laughed
"Follow me, come on!" She said
Then a minute later they arrived at AppleBloom's bedroom, She opened the door, and as expected, there was someone sleeping on it.
They quietly crawled over to the sleeping pony, they reached the side of the bed, and only their eyes spied on the sleeping pony.
It was a foal, not an adult pony. He looked liked about their age.
AppleBloom phewed
"I thought that it was an adult, it was a foal like us" AppleBloom whispered to her friends
They nodded
He was silent, it wasn't even audible a single breathing. His coat was of a dark grey, and his mane was of a dark crimson red, seems like he was an earth pony, and his face looked extremely thin.
However, the most interesting thing, is that he seems like he had a 8-pointed star kind of gem attached to his forehead, like some kind of decoration, but it wasn't like it was simply glued, it was part of the body itself.
"Isn't.. Isn't he a bit.. huh" AppleBloom whispered
"Skinny?" Scootalo whispered back
"yeah.." AppleBlood said
One of them curiously pulled down the blanket out of curiosity
"W-what are you doing!?" Sweetie Belle low-key yelled at her friend
"Shhh" Scootalo answered
And when they pulled down until the belly, they didn't expect what they would see, they expected to see if this pony was a pegasus or an earth pony but..
The pony was completely skinny, not even an ounce of fat or belly, in fact, he was so skinny that his ribs were visible.
The fillies were quietly shocked, and they mutually thought the same thing about the skinny foal infront of them.
However, Scootalo continued to pull down the blanket after acknowledging the skinny foal.
She pulled down until they could see the flanks.
"He has a cutie mark!" AppleBloom low-key yelled
It was the symbol of infinity, it didn't have any color except It was simply black.
However, they couldn't really figure out what it could be about since it gave no hint except being 'Infinite'
However, sweetie Belle pulled up back the blanket.
"I think we should go.." She whispered
The other two turned to each other and looked in the eyes, they were so close that their nose almost touched
One of them started to crawl away, and eventually, the rest followed behind.
And they got out of the bedroom.
All three of them sat down just right behind the door
"What are we gonna do with him?" Scootalo asked
"I dont know?" Sweetie belle said
"AppleJack told us to take care of him"
"I mean, he's skinny like that, we should cook something so when he wakes up he can eat!" AppleBloom said
"That's a good idea!" The other two yelled
And they clapped hooves together
[20 minutes later]
They stirred the dough around and put it in the oven
"Phew, that was amazing crusaders!" Scootalo said
"Did we get a cutie mark for that?" she asked
They all looked at their flanks
"Nope, no cutie mark." AppleBloom responded
Then an old pony with a green coat walked into the room
She looked around the room with absolute shock
"What tarnation on Celestia happened here?!" Granny smith yelled
"Oh granny smith, we were cooking!" Applebloom said as she pointed to the oven
"Look at the apple pie we are cooking" She said
granny smith looked around the room
"This room is a mess, how in the world are ya all cooking?" Granny Smith asked them
There was dough leaking everywhere, then flour spread around the ground, then some apples were either cut badly or splat on the ground
"I hope at least the apple pie is good" Granny Smith approached the oven and bent down to look
The apple pie was a blob of dough, with some dough spilling outside and some pieces of apples sticking on top of it
"Well.. huh.. better than last time" Granny Smith said
[Later in the evening]
The sun was now setting, the three Crusaders sat beside the sleeping grey foal.
They all looked bored
"he's been sleeping since morning, when is he gonna wake up?" AppleBloom said out loud
"I don't know, is he even alright?" Sweetie belle said
"I think not, since he looks like he didn't eat anything for weeks" Scootalo said
Then the door of the bedroom slowly opened, and the three Crusaders looked at the door opening.
Then Applejack's slowly head poked out of the door
AppleJack walked three of them and whispered
"What are you three doing here? He's sleeping here"
"Im doing as you said AppleJack, im looking over him, but he hasn't moved an inch since then" AppleBloom said out loud while expressing 'what now?' with her arms
"Wha-Shh lower your voice you are gonna wake him up!" AppleJack low-key reprimanded her
"Ah, he doesn't wake up no matter what" AppleBloom said to her
(2 hours ago)
Scootalo was slamming two pans together just right above the sleeping foal's head, Sweetie Belle was death growling beside the sleeping foal and Applebloom was basically scraping the sleeping foal's nose with the apple pie.
(To the present)
"Oh.. He must be really tired, you three shouldn't disturb him that much, but if he keeps sleeping like that, where will you sleep?" Applejack said while pointing with her hooves
Applebloom looked around while scratching her head
"I don't know?" she said
"You can sleep in my house!" Scootalo said
"Or in mine!" Sweetie belle said
AppleJack and Bloom looked at the two.
Then AppleBloom looked at AppleJack.
Applejack looked at Scootalo and Sweetie Belle
"Are you sure Applebloom can stay in your houses?
"Im pretty sure my aunt will be glad to let Applebloom sleep with me!" Scootalo said with a cheer
"um, im not sure, I should ask my sister first" Sweetie Belle said
[Later]
"Oh darling, I'd love to, but. I have a lot of clothings to make today and tomorrow, im sorry, I can't."
Rarity said to Sweetie Belle
"But.. It's just for sleeping, not a sleepover!" Sweetie belle said
"And here we go, up here, what a dress! now we need here-" Rarity was talking to herself while magically organizing the clothes
Sweetie Belle gave up and walked out of her house and met Applebloom, Jack and Scootalo there
"im sorry, but I think my sister doesn't want you to sleep here" Sweetie Belle said to both of them
"Yay! You are going to sleep with me!" Scootalo cheered
"Come on!" She said as she used her scooter to race to her house
And the three of them
(At Scootalo's house)
"Oh ho ho, of course, she can sleep any day that she wants in my house!" Aunt Holiday said
"YES! YES!" Scootalo jumped as she cheered
"We're gonna sleep together!" She said as she spinned around Applebloom
"Only for one night!" Applejack said
"And thank you for letting her sleep with you" She
"Oh no, it's nothing applejack. Is it a sleepover?" Holiday asked
"Err, no. It's actually for another reason" Applejack said
"What reason?" Holiday asked
"Well, you see, there was this foal that was roaming around my farm, then when I saw him, he made a few steps and passed out. The poor foal looked like hasn't eaten or slept in weeks. So he's sleeping in Applebloom's bed for the moment" Applejack told her
"Oh, how terrible. Where are his parents?" Aunt Holiday said as she put a hoof in front of her mouth in shock
"I don't know, I don't even know who is this foal.. I just found him on my farm, as if he appeared out of thin air" Applejack said as she scratched her head
"Hmm, it's weird.. but well, it's about to be dark, you both should go back to your homes." Aunt holiday said
"Yeah, your right. Thank you again for taking in AppleBloom for me"
She said as she turned around to walk out of the door, then Sweetie Belle did the same.
Both of them waved at Holiday
"Don't worry, I will take care of Applebloom for you!" Aunt Holiday said as she waved and watches them go away
And eventually, she closed the door and looked at Applebloom.
"Well, i was preparing dinner, would you like to help me with Scootalo?" Aunt holiday asked her
"Yeah!" Applebloom said
[Several minutes later]
Scootalo, the aunt, and Applebloom cooked together.
Applebloom tended to almost make a mess of the kitchen, but luckily Holiday is there to always save the kitchen by correcting her errors before the disaster.
Scootalo just aided the cooking and stirred something here and there
Holiday did most of the work through.
And they sat on the table and ate whatever vegetable was there, and after they ate, Scootalo and Applebloom jumped up and down here and there, chatted to each other did some planning for the cutie mark crusaders, and eventually they had to sleep because auntie demanded so.
Both AppleBloom and Scootalo shared the same bed.
Scootalo slept on her side, and Applebloom lays on her back.
There was obvious silence as they were sleeping.
"Applebloom?" Scootalo quietly called her out
"Hmm?" Applebloom groggily responded
"What do you think that foal's cutie mark could mean?" Scootalo asked
"Hmm-aah, I don't know" Applebloom said as she rubbed her face into her pillow trying to continue sleeping
Scootalo looked somewhere else.
"Where do you think he came from anyways? Did you see that he has a gem on his forehead? I have never seen that in any other pony"
"And-"
However, Apple bloom's foreleg landed on Scootalo's face
"Oh quit it, I wanna sleep" Applebloom said as she was trying to sleep.
"Oh no! You need to answer my question first, I won't sleep until an answer!" Scootalo said
Then she proceeded to tickle Applebloom which started to laugh, then Bloom answered with a counterattack by tickling back.
They both laughed together, as they were making a mess of the bed.
And minutes later, they did eventually sleep
"Eheh.. Night Scootalo.." Applebloom said
"Before it wasn't time to sleep? Goodnight Applebloom" Scootalo replied
And both closed their eyes.
Finally slept until the sunrise arrived
[Chapter has been extended]
The crusaders slept through the night and when the sun ray hit their eyes, they immediately woke up.
They got out of the door by slamming into it, Scootalo was already on her scooter diving in the air, while Applebloom was inside a cart pulled by the scooter.
They picked up Sweetie Belle too on the way there too.
After a while, they finally reached Applebloom's house
There was Big Mac and AppleJack having breakfast
"What are you three doing so early in the morning?" Applejack asked the two fillies
"Check on the sleeping foal of course!" Scootalo said
AppleJack looked disappointed for a second
"I already checked, he's still sleeping"
"Big mac was also there with me"
"ee-yup" Big Macintosh said
"Oh, c'mon! Why is he sleepin' so much!" Applebloom yelled
"Yeah! What's wrong that he's sleeping so much?" Scootalo said
"I mean, I know that he seems to be really in bad shape, but that doesn't explain why he's sleeping so much!"
"don't know Sugarcube, but gotta wait" Applejack responded
"And looks like you will have to spend 'nother night with Scootalo if he keeps sleepin' like that" She said
"...Well. I don't mind!" Scootalo said
Applebloom just continued to walk to another room, she looked more annoyed than anything
"Wait for me!" Scootalo and Sweetie Belle said as they followed behind Applebloom
They were again in her bedroom, they entered and there was still the sleeping foal in her bed.
"Is he gonna still be sleeping tomorrow?" Applebloom asked
"I don't know." Sweetie belle said
Scootalo walked closer to the sleeping foal and poked him, but still no response. She tried to shake him, the same thing. And this time she decided to really shake him violently.
Again, no response.
"I guess we can't wake him up" Scootalo said
Applebloom got out of the room alongside the other two and closed the door
"What if he keeps sleeping like that forever!? Is he gonna steal my bed like Babs seed?" Applebloom said to her two friends out of nowhere
The other two Crusaders looked at each other, then they turned back to Applebloom, they walked closer, and put a hoof on her shoulder.
"I don't think he's gonna do that" Sweetie Belle said to her
However, Sweetie Belle and Scootalo looked above Applebloom
Applebloom turned around curious about what they were looking
"Applejack?" Applebloom said as she saw her
"Don't worry, he's not gonna do that, but if he sleepin' in forever then we have to do something" Applejack said
"I was coming up here to see what you three were about to do"
"And I think I got an idea if he doesn't wake up til afternoon" she said as she scratched her chin
And she closed to the fillies and said something to them, then backed up
The fillies looked at each other and looked at Applejack
"That is a good idea?" Applebloom said
"Yep" Applejack said to her
"Anyways, you three should go to school, remember? Today isn't Sunday" pointed her hoof at them
The three Crusaders widened their eyes
"We should be at school by now!" All three of them yelled at once
And they started to gallop away
Applejack just looked back at them while covering her mouth and laughing.
[In the late Afternoon]
There was a purple unicorn named Twilight Sparkle that lived inside a treehouse, she loved reading books continuously and kept in order an immense amount of books on an equally immense bookshelf, however, she did not live alone, there was also a tiny purple dragon with green plates on his back named Spike doing nothing until the purple unicorn wanted something.
Today, as usual, she quietly scrolls through her books while the dragon is just lazily laying around.
however, there were several knocks on the door.
she got up and went to the door to answer it, there were three fillies: Applebloom, Scootalo, and Sweetie Belle
There was silence for a second, Twilight looked left and right then at them. In the meanwhile spike also showed up
"Hi! Is there something that I can help you three with?"
"There is a pony that has been sleeping for like.. yesterday morning! And he still not awake!" Scootalo said to Twilight
"Wha- that's an excessively excessive amount of sleep! It's unhealthy to sleep that much!" Twilight said shocked
"Yeah! And this pony won't wake up no matter what!" Applebloom said
"Applejack said there is a pony that could help us, and it's you!" she pointed at Twilight
There was a moment of silence
"Just a moment!" Twilight said
She closed the door. Then she reopened the door, she now had a backpack.
"So, where is this pony?" Twilight asked
"Follow me!" Scootalo said as she turned around with the scooter, and the other two hopped on the cart pulled by Scootalo and started to drift her way.
Twilight galloped behind them and Spike hopped on Twilight's back.
[Applebloom's bedroom]
"There he is!" Applebloom pointed her hoof to the sleeping pony
And so Twilight walked to the side of the bed, then around the bed back and forth as examining him. Then she telekinetically lifted a book from the backpack and read it.
After a few seconds, she put down the book and she went to the sleeping foal, she opened his eyelids and shone light to the eyeballs. The pupil shrank in response, after she got that response, she let the foal's eyelids close and opened another book and read it.
She widened her stance and her horn started to be warped in a slimy layer of magic, she aimed at the sleeping foal and cast.
Meanwhile, the three Crusaders stood aside and watched
She observed at the spell did its job, but seconds have passed, and there was zero response from the foal. However, the only response she got was that the foal moved only to sleep in another position, and Twilight looked confused. She reopened the same book and reread it, she cast another spell, but the same thing happened, she started to subtly look skeptical.
"Well, there is nothing that we can't do, I will eventually find a way to wake him up" Twilight said to the three Crusaders
[30 minutes later]
Knives were on the floor, 5 books lay around as if they were thrown, the bed was messy and Twilight's hair was messy too.
"Um, I think we should leave?" Sweetie Belle asked
"umm.. I don't know?" Scootalo hummed uncertainly
Twilight was using telekinesis to slam the foal back and forth to the ground, however, it seems like it didn't affect the foal at all, he was even in the same sleeping position as before while in mid-air.
But she slowly tucked this sleeping foal into bed and fixed the mess with telekinesis
"How is this pony not waking up?" Twilight said as she was sweating and slightly dropped in stature in exhaustion
The three Crusaders shrugged
Twilight turned to the three Crusaders
"Im sorry girls, but I can't think of any other spell to wake him up, let's just hope that he's fine after all" Twilight's voice seems weary
"Is there nothing you really can do?!" Three of them said at once
"No, im sorry, that was my last effort" Twilight said
The three Crusaders looked at each other and then back at Twilight
"um, what now?" Sweetie Belle asked
"Im going home" Twilight said as she walked past them as she was sweating and her head dropped to the ground
"bye Twilight!" All three Crusaders waved at her
"Bye." Twilight as she dissappeared around the corner
...
"What now?" Sweetie belle and Appleboom asked Scootalo
Scootalo looked surprised at the two suddenly asking her suggestions
"Umm.. Let's go on a crusade!" she said
"YEAH!" all three of them yelled and clapped hoofs, and they close the door and left the scene as if nothing happened
And the sleeping foal made some groanings
"Who's the piece of shit doing all this!?" he yelled despite still sleeping.
And then the sleeping foal changed sleeping position while mumbling some stuff.
