Applejack, be careful!” Fluttershy said, trotting to the bedside table and setting the tray down. ![]() “Fluttershy, there's a-Īaannngghh.” she grunted, slumping back down onto the pillow, clutching the back of her head. “The hex!” she exclaimed, then quickly sat up. “Shoot, I-I mean, the hex.” she added, then closed her eyes, trying to remember. “I.we were just leaving the library.to tell everypony about the curse.” Applejack said. “Oh? You mean you don't remember?” asked the yellow pegasus, walking around the bed and placing the tray next to Applejack. She winced and pressed a hoof to her forehead. “F-Fluttershy? What the hay happened? How'd I end up here?” she asked, blearily. She held a tray on one wing with crude, wooden bowls resting on it. Applejack looked down the bed to see Fluttershy peaking through the doorway with a smile on her face. “Sounds like somepony's awake!” she heard a soft, sweet voice say. She tried to push herself up, her forelegs trembling, but it felt like something was holding her in place. She shook her head, trying to remember how she got there.

Scattered hay littered the dark green floorboards. Wasn't she just at the library? What happened? Where was she? Numerous birdhouses swung from the rafters in the animals' wake.

Immediately bashed her head on the headboard. Little things bounced off of her bed and birds took flight from birdhouses, raining little downy feathers down on her as they flew out the open window. “Waaaaah!” she wailed, and the critters all collectively squeaked and squawked and scattered and bustled away mice and lizards, squirrels and birds, rats, foxes, bunnies, gophers, hedgehogs, ferrets all fleeing in a commotion of feet and tails and wings. She opened her eyes with a start, her head rolling upright, and saw dozens of eyes all around her, watching her intently. Applejack woke up, her eyelids twitching, and smelled flowers and animals. ![]()
