>You are Anon of the Apple trees.
>Seriously, there are so many Apple trees that you’re worried about getting lost.
>Having lost the little ones, you decide to rest for a while.
>And by rest, you really mean that you collapsed onto the ground wheezing like an asthmatic.
>Oh God I need to start doing cardio.
>You eventually catch your breath.
>After your brief cardiac arrest, you stand up and dust yourself off before beginning to move forward.
“I wonder where they went.”
>THUD
>You spin around like a combat ballerina.
“Bigfoot is that you?”
>The sound obviously came from behind you, but the dense treeline makes seeing very far an issue.
>THUD
>There is that sound again!
>Should you investigate or do you go the other way?
>THUD
>Being the brave human that you are, you decide to approach the sound.
>Moving from tree to tree you stealthily begin your approach.
>THUD
>The sound startles you this time. It is definitely louder than last time. You must be getting closer.
>As you slowly peek around your current tree, you see the source of the sound.
>You spot an orange colored pony standing in front of a tree looking up at the apples.
>She then suddenly turns and kicks the tree hard.
>The whole tree shakes and apples rain down.
>”Hoo wee! I suppose that'll be enough for today.”
>Hmm, familiar accent.
>Looking past the pony notice that several trees have baskets filled with apples underneath them. Now Including the one with the pony beneath it.
>They sure are weird looking.
>As if knowing that you were internally talking shit about it, she turns your way and is now staring at you with wide eyes.
>You freeze, staring back with wide eyes of your own.
>A few moments pass with no movement from either of you.
>Maybe their vision is based on movement.
>”Hey now don't you be sneakin’ up on me ya hear! Unless you want a kick to your teeth!”
>Fuck!
“Hey easy there, I don't want any trouble.”
>Upon hearing your voice she stiffens up and takes a defensive position.
>”Well ya got trouble! What are you doing back there?”
>Looking to the tree behind her with a pair of dents in it’s trunk, you decide that agitating her further is really not a good idea.
“Hey relax, I just got lost is all.”
>She squints her eyes and scrapes her hoof like an angry bull. [spoiler]Olé[/spoiler]
>”I don't like liars. You best get out from behind there and start being honest with me or I'll have to kick you off my property.”
>You are still pretty wiped out, so running wouldn't get you very far and you definitely don't want to pick a fight with a local.
>Just not good manners!
“Okay okay, just calm down. I really don't mean any harm! I was being chased by a few, uhh ponies.”
>Awkward silence intensifies.
>She flicks an ear while looking at you expectantly.
>You just sit there looking at her, until she exaggerates a sigh.
>”Don’t just sit there, keep talking.”
“Oh sorry. Well after running around trying to get away from my pursuers, I ran into your orchard.”
>”That doesn't exactly tell me what you were doing sneakin’ up on me like you were. In fact why were you being chased?”
“Well it was more of a game with some little ones, but it did involve running and avoidance maneuvers.
>”And the sneaking?”
“Well I was resting and then heard a loud noise. Like someone hitting a stump with sledgehammer. I decided to see what could be causing such a noise.”
>”So you were just curious?”
“I suppose so.”
>She looks you over for a second before gently smiling.
>”I suppose I owe you an apology then. I may have overreacted a little.”
“A little? I don't generally threaten to kick someone in the teeth if they startle me.”
>You see her grimace a little.
>”Yeah I'm sorry about that, but a big thing like you sneaking up behind somepony can really get your heart racing.”
>You are quite a bit bigger than her. . .
>”Hey if you're thirsty, maybe I could offer you some cider as an apology. Nopony in Equestria makes better!”
>Now that you are out in the open where she can see you, she has calmed down quite a bit.
>She is just sitting right in front of you looking up with those big green eyes of hers.
>Hmm, they are actually kind of cute.
“You know what? That actually sounds pretty nice.”
