>Day Working in Equestria
>Kick another tree with the sole of your foot
>A couple of apples tumble out of the branches and onto the grass
>Pick them up and place them in your bucket
>Turn back to the tree and sigh before kicking it again
>Applejack works you hard in order to meet her quota
>Gather up the apples and turn to place them in your bucket again
>Yawn and drop them in
>Blink slowly and look down at the half full bucket
>Was it half full? You were sure it was pretty much overflowing a second ago
>Probably just tired
>Grumble and turn back to your tree, kicking it once more
>Collect the fallen fruit and deposit them in the-
"What the fuck."
>The bucket is empty
>Look around, an annoyed look on your face
"Applejack? Is that you?"
>No answer
>Slowly place a few apples in the bucket
>Turn around and count to 5
>Spin to face it again
>Empty
"I swear to god, AJ. I'm too tired for this shit."
>Nothing
>Place a single apple in the bottom of the bucket and stare at it for 2 minutes
>It doesn't de-materialise like the rest
>Huff and turn back to your tree
>Kick it as hard as you can, grunting while you do so
>A large furry blob drops from the branches and lands in the bucket
>Stare is shock at it
>The batpony seems just as amazed as you are
>Her mouth is stuffed with apples, and her forelegs are carrying twice as many
>Hold each others gazes for a moment
"SON OF A FUCKING--"
>The pony skedaddles, frantically flapping her leathery wings as she heads deeper into the orchard, dropping most of the apples she was carrying along the way
>Fucking Batpony thieves.
