Canterlot High

Chapter 10

Applejack's P.O.V.

The walls of the barn trembled, before the west wall tumbled down. Two demons crept in. One was orange and the other was blue.

Applebloom shrieked and struggled as the orange one grabbed her ankle, saying, "Stay still you fool!"

"Applebloom!" I shouted. I ran past the blue demon, dodging a blow and bowled the orange demon over. Applebloom scrambled free and ran to Granny Smith.

I was lying on top of the orange demon when I felt someone pulling my hair, pulling me off the demon.

"Ah!" I cried as the orange demon landed his fist on my stomach with all the strength he had. I kicked his shin and he recoiled for a moment.

That moment was enough for Big Mac to spring up behind him and grab him by his throat. The blue demon yanked my head back and grinned evilly.

He landed fist after fist on my sides and I managed to get a few punches at him as well. But after a while, his fist landed on my face, giving me a black eye.

"Ow..." I moaned.

He held me down, sneering, "No one can save you now!"

He was about to bring his fist down when someone crashed into him. I managed to see a blur of purple, but that was all. I heaved myself up and limped over to Granny Smith.

Big Mac had pinned the orange demon down. The blue demon was locked in a fight with a girl I had never seen before. Not in these parts anyway.

The two demons soon fled with bruises and cuts all over their bodies. The girl came up to me on wobbly legs.

She had mainly dark purple hair, with strips of purple and pink. She wore a white button shirt, a mini purple skirt with the pattern of a star and purple boots with pink socks folded over it.

"You okay?" I asked,eyeing the way she walked.

"Um...yes. But I'm sure you're not okay," she answered.

"I'm fine, just a few bruises here and there. We have a lot of repairing to do."

"I can help," the girl offered.

"No thank you," I answered.

"I CAN HELP."

"I SAID NO THANK YOU."

"APPLEJACK!!! YOU'RE HURT! JUST LET ME HELP YOU."

I pondered for a moment before saying, "Suit yourself."

I turned around then stopped short and turned back. "How did you know my name was Applejack?"

The girl jumped, before saying, "Um....didn't you say?"

I shook my head.

"Anyway, my name is Twilight Sparkle."

"Well, sad that you had to come here when this was happening."

"What did happen anyway?"

As I was just about to answer, a voice shouted, "WE'RE HERE TO SAVE YOU, APPLEJACK!"
