01 Apple Pie

[downtoearthpony]

[Dawn has passed on Brady Lane, but only by an hour or so when sunlight has reached the newly appeared doghouse in 337's backyard. The doghouse contains an orange colored pony with a yellow mane, quietly snoring, as if unaware what awaits her when she wakes up. Which is actually the minute the sunlight hits her face. She's use to getting up when the rooster crows, after all. Of course when she finishes yawning and rubbing her eyes with her hooves, she's a little shock to see the unfamiliar surroundings.]

What in tarnation? I don't remember falling asleep in the barn last night... Wait, this isn't mah barn. Where in Equestria is this?

[Applejack steps out of the doghouse and looks around to see a strange and unfamiliar landscape around her. She's looking over everything, which isn't actually much what with the backyard fence blocking her view.]

Well, it's definitely not Ponyville... Or any place Ah've seen before. What's with the door there? Doesn't look like it's made for a pony.

[She's referring to the back door of the house of course, and she makes her way to it when she suddenly is jerked to a stop by the rope that has her tied to the dog house.]

Erk! Now who did this? Is this some prank of Dash's and Pinkie Pie's? Hmph, Ah'll be sure to give them a piece of mah mind if it is.

[She walks over to the doghouse and uses her teeth to untie herself from it. She can't really get to the part looped around her neck at the moment, but she'll worry about that later. Now is the time to get some answers. Which is why she walks up to the door with a determined look and knocks on it loudly with her hoof.]

HELLO?! ANYPONY IN THERE?! Y'ALL NEED TO COME OUT HERE AND EXPLAIN YOURSELVES!

[She pauses and seems to glance up, as if noticing something for the first time before knocking again.]

AND YOU NEED TO GIVE ME BACK MAH HAT IF YOU HAVE IT, TOO!!

What's that suppose to mean? You shouldn't ignore helping someone out just because you don't think it would work, you help out because it's the right thing to do.

I don't owe anyone in this town anything. Same goes the other way around too. You'll see soon enough, in a town like this.

[He lights up another cigarette.] Everyone else in this house is brainwashed. A "wife" and two kids. They're going to act like you're a dog and can't understand you when you talk.

[Applejack gives him a stare, as if sizing him up...]

That's not a very neighborly attitude to take. Especially in a place like this where we're all stuck in the same boat.

But what do you mean the others are brainwashed? Is that there droning thing someone told me about? So the only one in the house who will talk to me in the house is you?

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

That's exactly it. You're stuck with me, it seems.

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

More like you're stuck with me, buster.

[She actually says that with a smile and bit more jovial then angry tone as she holds out a hoof to shake.]

The name's Applejack, what's yours?

[This will never stop being weird for a long time. But... hoove-shake, yeah okay...]

[And Applejack gives a good solid hoof-shake, still smiling.]
