Chapter 4

We are here, said Applejack. Follow me, said Applejack. To where? asked Fluttershy. You´ll see, said Applejack, holding Fluttershy´s hoof. They walked for a while through the forest. Fluttershy and Applejack chatted and watched the leaves falling of trees as they walked by, holding hands. Close your eyes, said Applejack. Why? said Fluttershy. Just close them, Applejack said. Fluttershy covered her eyes. No peeking, Applejack said. She took Fluttershy´s hand, and guided her towards a path through the forest. You can open them now, said Applejack. Fluttershy uncovered her eyes, and stared in surprise what was in front of her. Applejack had prepared a picnic, with food. Some candles were lightning up the place. Applejack, you did this all, for me? asked Fluttershy exitedly. Sure, said Applejack. Do you like it? Oh Applejack, this is so wonderful! said Fluttershy, happily. Heh, it was nothing, said Applejack. Don´t be so modest, said Fluttershy. They both sat down, and enjoyed the food Applejack had prepared. Once they finished, Applejack asked, So what do you think? It was one of the best meals I had ever had, said Fluttershy. Thanks, said Applejack, blushing a bit. And for the final part, she said, pulling out her guitar. She started to sing a song she had composed for Fluttershy. When the song had finished, Fluttershy clapped. That was very amazing! said Fluttershy happily. Thanks, said Applejack. It´s getting late now, I should take you home, said Applejack. Sure, said Fluttershy. Did you enjoy this afternoon? asked Applejack. I sure did, said Fluttershy, kissing Applejack. Glad to hear, said Applejack. Let´s go now. Ok then, said Fluttershy. They both started making their way through the forest. Applejack,asked Fluttershy. Yes? said Applejack. Do you love me? asked Fluttershy. Sugar, I love you more than anything, said Applejack. Never doubt of my love for you. Will you protect me from danger? asked Fluttershy. I would even give my life if necessary, said Applejack. You promise? asked Fluttershy. I promise, said Applejack. Fluttershy then got closer to Applejack, and hugged her happily. Applejack returned the hug. When they were in the middle of the forest, they took the fastest path to Fluttershy's home. Just then, they heard a sound. What was that? asked Fluttershy, sounding a bit afraid. I don´t know, said Applejack. But whatever it is, I would not let it hurt you. Applejack reached out for her lasso. Several bushes rustled. Suddenly, some ponies with black suits and guns came out of the bushes. Fluttershy screamed in fear. Applejack got in front of her. Well, well, if it isn´t Fluttershy, and her girlfriend Applejack, one of them said. Who are you and what do you want?! demanded Applejack. Oh, we don´t want you. It´s HER we want, he answered, pointing to Fluttershy. YOU DARE TOUCH HER AND I SWEAR YOU WILL REGRET IT! said Applejack. We will see about that, he said. Some of the ponies jumped towards Applejack. She started to whip them with her lasso. Then she punched and kicked them. She then heard a scream behind her. Fluttershy! exclaimed Applejack, turning to her. Help me! yelled Fluttershy, in fear. LEAVE HER ALONE! said Applejack. NEVER! said the masked pony, holding her tightly. Applejack ran towards him and kicked him on his stomach. He felled to the ground. Applejack started to attack the other ponies. The pony who had felled to the ground, got up and pulled a gun towards Fluttershy. Applejack turned and ran towards her. The man pulled the trigger, and it shot Applejack right in the head. APPLEJACK! yelled Fluttershy. Applejack falled to the ground in pain. NOO!! cried Fluttershy, in tears. The rest of the ponies grabbed Fluttershy and disapeared.
