“Well howdy, Rainbow Dash.” she said, smiling. She continued on her way, tilting her hat forward to keep the sun out of her eyes, and she heard the sudden whooshing sound that heralded the arrival of her best friend. Applejack gave a quiet sigh out of her nose and continued on her way.Īfter she had resumed her journey for a little ways, she stopped her walk long enough to pick a blade of straw from the side of the road with her hoof and put it in her mouth. She puffed her cheeks out and spread her legs out wide, moving forward in a couple of small hops before slowly making her way back in wide, waddling strides. Applebloom nodded and turned around, not moving. “Now run on back to Granny Smith, tell her I'll be sure to pick one up.” she said.

Thanks for telling me, Applebloom, that was real helpful of ya'll.” she said. But this new one won't be used for horseplay, alright? Fireplace bellows are real delicate.” she said, pointing a hoof at Applebloom, “.apparently.” she added. “Yeah, alright, alright.” she said, good-naturedly. Applejack just smiled and rolled her eyes. He blew you up like a party balloon!” she said, laughing. “I'm sorry big sis, but that just got me thinkin'a that whole thing with Spike and all. Applebloom shook her head and giggled to herself. “And what's so funny about the smithin' traders, hmm?” she asked, smiling a little herself. I suppose I can.drop by Geronimo's Smithin's and pick one up.” she said to herself before she noticed that Applebloom was noticeably trying not to smile, which was getting more and more obvious. Well.I did bring extra bits, just in case. And when you blew Spike away, it landed on the ground and somethin' else popped. And when you were.” she said, before puffing her cheeks out and putting her forelegs out around her for emphasis, “all that air pressure must'a popped somethin' in there. “I know, sis, I didn't mean it like that! I just meant that when Spike was doin' he tried to use 'em to help you breathe, he was too rough on 'em. “I did what?” said Applejack, her head recoiling back in surprise so hard her hat flew off her head, drifting slowly back down to rest at an odd angle. “A bellows? You mean for the fireplace? What's wrong with our old one?” “Granny Smith.wanted to ask you.if you remembered.to get a bellows.” she said, her panting calming down. Applebloom regained her composure, swallowed, and then kept panting. “I haven't left yet, sugar cube, go on and catch your breath.” she said. “W-Wait.wait up.” she said between breaths. Applebloom stopped just short of her side of the fence, panting. She approached the fence separating the farm from the road, where Applejack was waiting. Applebloom's tiny hooves worked at a rapid gallop, and she was panting. She turned and saw the small, yellow figure of her younger sister Applebloom running towards the road from the farm.

She walked down that road, the smell of apples still fresh in her nostrils, when she heard someone call her name in the distance. She'd even made a shopping list, like Twilight always wanted her to do. So, she had planned to buy some extras to compensate.

In addition to the perpetually unfinished/broken down barn, there was a fence in the east orchard that needed repairing, and she suspected her younger sister was taking some of the nails and turpentine for her and her friends' clubhouse. So, she was heading into town on her monthly general supply trip. But unlike the numerous apples in the orchards, supplies to run it didn't grow on trees. Walking down the country road with the urban hustle and bustle of ponyville at her back and rolling green hills to her front, smelling the orchards on the wind before cresting that first big hill and seeing sweet apple acres in the distance always gave her a nostalgic feeling. She was terribly prone to being homesick, even into her adulthood (although she hid this from nearly everypony she knew), but over the years she'd learned that going away gave her the opportunity to return home again. There was no place she'd rather be in all of equestria than her home, but part of having a home meant having to leave it sometimes. Applejack caught the scent in the breeze and smiled. The wind ran over the green hills and through the orchards before blowing gently across the hot and dusty country road, smelling like dirt and apples.
