>Applejack warns Applebloom to not go near her Personal Chest ever again
>Applebloom insists in her usual "Cutie Mark Crusader" motivation
>"No Applebloom, not this time, don't touch my Chest, if I ever catch you peeping at my Chest again you'll be sorry"
>"Bu--"
>"YOU'LL BE SORRY"
>The matter is forgotten until a few days later, where Applejack surprises Applebloom attempting to spy on what's in Applejack's chest
>She quickly trows herself towards Applebloom, but just like a surprised rabbit, Aplebloom scapes from her grip.
>Applebloom avoids Applejack for a while, letting things cool off, however, when Big Mac wasn't looking, Applejack smacks Applebloom in the face several times. Applebloom is about to cry but Applejack warns her threat-fully "Don't you dare to cry or I'll give you a good reason to do it"
>The matter is forgotten once again, Applejack even recovers her usual playful self
 
>One day Aplebloom and Applejack are playing on the Apple fields
>"Sis, let's play hide and seek"
>"Okay"
>Applejack starts counting and after counting to 49, she hears everything's quiet, too quiet
>"Applebloom?"
>Nothing, she usually blows her cover giggling, but this time, only the leaves could be heard
>"Come out come out wherever you are" Applejack is still with his mind on the game
>She searches every possible place she could hide on the time ratio she counted.
>Nothing. Nada. Zero. Zip
>Applejack gets a chill running down her spine
>She knows where she is
>She runs as fast as she can, furious like she's never been before
>As she approaches her home, she confirms what she thought; the door is ajar
>She sneaks into the house, motivated with rage
>Applejack's room's door is open
>she slowly walks inside without making any noise
>She finds Applebloom on her bed, watching the insides of her Chest
>Applejack simply looses it
>She bangs the door behind her, Applebloom is paralyzed with fear
 
>"Applejack, No,NO.NO--" Applejack starts smacking her sister, and I mean REALLY smacking her
>Applebloom tries to flee but the closed door works fine as an obstacle, giving Applejack the perfect time to intercept her
>Applejack trows her to the wall where she bumps her head
>Applejack starts kicking her, yes, she kicks her sister with all her might
>"I'm sorry,I'm sorry,I'm sorry" each time Applebloom apologizes Applejack gives an extra effort to kick her harder
>Applejack feels that she can't kick anymore, her legs are tired, so she goes into the ground and starts pounding her sister
>She doesn't knows why, but she feels like she's just not over punishing Applebloom
>The beating continues until Applejack notices that Applebloom isn't moaning anymore
>She isn't moving either
>Applejack opens her eyes widely in realization
>"Applebloom? APPLEBLOOM? Come on! Don't play like that! Applebloom ANSWER ME!
>There is no response
 
>Applejack's eyes start to get wet, she has a "Blue screen of death" kind of moment that lasts for what seems like hours
>"Big Mac!" She finally recovers her shit and thinks on what to do
>she runs errant to the fields where Rainbow Dash usually hangs out
>She finds Rainbow Dash on her way back home from a day of doing nothing
>"Rainbow Dash! I- n--n-need yrrr yo--r help"
>Rainbow Dash thinks on making a joke about her way to talk, but something on her grimace makes her get serious
>"What is it? Applejack, what's wrong"
>"Ah--ah--I'll explain you there"
>Rainbow Dash follows Applejack, concerning more and more as she sees Applejack weeping desperately
>They make it to Applejack's and soon they're at the horrible scene
 
>Rainbow Dash makes a full jaw drop. Applebloom's body is already covered with flies
>"Appleja--" Rainbow Dash can't even properly form her words on the shock "Wh--What have... WHAT DID YOU--?
>"I don't know! I JUST DON'T KNOW! I TOLD HER TO LEAVE MY CHEST ALONE AND SHE JUST KEPT LOOKING AND LOOKING AND I COULDN'T STOP I COULDN--"
>Rainbow Dash slaps her, finishing with her Tantrum, Applejack gasps surprised
>"Applejack, snap out of it! Calm down"
>Applejack burst into tears
>"Rainbow Dash...I don't wanna go to jail"
>"No! You will not--listen to me" She picks up Applejack by the shoulders "You will NOT go to jail, you got that? I won't let that happen"As they hug Rainbow Dash can't help to cry herself too.
>She wipes her tears and breaks the hug "I'll be right back, don't move"
>She flies as fast as she knows how into her home in Cloudsdale
>Quickly she lurks into her shelves, desperately trowing dishes and cutlery alike
>She finally finds a bunch of plastic bags, big enough to fit a filly inside
>Instantly she flies back to Applejacks, hoping she didn't took too long
>"What took you so long?"
>"Shut up and help me to get her in" Applejack takes her sister by the front hooves and Rainbow Dash by the rear
>She fits perfectly inside of the black bag
>As Rainbow Dash ties a knot on the bags lashes, she orders Applejack to go find something to clean up the blood on the ground
>Rapidly she brings a bucket full of water and detergent. She scrubs the remnants of blood off of the ground.
>When she's finished, it's like nothing have ever happened. Except for the plastic bag of course
>"Applejack, grab a pair of shovels"
 
>unseen by any pony, they make their way to a clear full of rabbit-warrens
>Without talking, they start to dig
>If there would be anyone else there, they would hear the panting of both mares as they make the hole on the ground bigger and bigger
>Once the hole is deep enough, they trow Applebloom's body inside
>They take the earth once again back into the hole and they cramp it to make it look more natural
>they even leave some flowers and sprouts so it doesn't looks like somebody dug there
>Finally, they add a good layer of snow to cover everything up
>"It looks natural"
>"Yeah, at night"
>Both ponies chuckle, but they stop soon after
>Something has been broken between the two of them, something important
 
>As they return, neither of them say anything, so Rainbow Dash decides to talk
>"Applejack, we will never, EVER talk about what happened tonight, you understand me?"
>"..."
>"YOU UNDERSTAND ME!?"
>"Yes. Yes Rainbow Dash, I understand"
>Applejack makes her way back home, so does Rainbow Dash
>The moon shines high in the sky, the Winter Wrap up is near.
