>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.
>You scan the area ahead, cautious of the little beasts from before.
>THUD
>Upon hearing a loud noise you spin around like a combat ballerina.
>The sound obviously came from behind you, but the dense treeline makes seeing very far an issue.
>THUD
>There is that sound again!
>Okay calm down and think. Should I investigate or do I go the other way?
>THUD
>Taking a few deep breaths, 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.
>Okay if anything starts chasing me again I am going to beat it with a stick.
>THUD
>As you slowly peek around your current tree, you see the source of the sound.
>Oh great, another one.
>You grimace as you spot the orange colored creature 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.” You hear her say.
>Hmm, familiar accent.
>Looking past the horse thing notice that several trees have baskets filled with apples underneath them. Now Including the one with the creature beneath it.
>They sure are weird looking.
>As if knowing that you were internally talking shit about it, the creature 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 large 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 ask you to leave my property.” She says in a low voice.
>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 something that can kick holes into a tree.
“Okay okay, just calm down. I really don't mean any harm! I was being chased by a few, uhh whatever you are.” Your nervousness is apparent as you leave the safety of your tree, maintaining a fair distance from her.
>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.” she says with a bit of grit in her voice.
“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.” she presses.
“I really don't want to have to explain myself. Look, I am really tired, my head hurts, and I have had a really unpleasant day in general. I mean no disrespect, but do you think we can cut this short so I can find something to drink? My throat is really dry.”
>She looks you over for a second before gently smiling.
>”I suppose so. You don't seem too dangerous after all.”
>She confidently walks up to you.
>”Hey if you're thirsty, maybe I could offer you some cider. Nopony in Equestria makes better!”
>As nice as that sounds, I don't really think that I should be accepting drinks from strange aliens.
>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 when they aren’t chasing you or screaming in your ears. Oh what the hell. I'm going to have to interact with these things eventually. This one at least seems pretty normal.
“You know what? That actually sounds pretty nice.”
