"J-Jackie is..M-Moving.." Pinkie said sadly with tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry girls, It is what it is." Bright mac said as he smirked 'kindly'. Applejack's 5 friends had no idea what the true meaning was behind that smirk. Twilight smiled.
"We know. We can't stop you from making your decisions. But we will miss Applejack dearly. Hopefully you guys could visit sometime," Twilight said. "But..Is there a specific reason why you guys are moving too soon?" Twilight asked curiously as she raised an eyebrow.
"Well..Let's just say that...You're Rainbow haired 'friend' has something to do with this." Bright mac smirked. The 5 girls were confused.
"What? What do you mean? Rainbow Dash loved Applejack!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"Yeah. Rainbow would never do...Well..I'm actually unaware of what she did to cause this." Sunset said. Basically trying to ask what Rainbow did to cause them to move.
"Um..It's kinda personal." He lied. Everyone nodded. All except Sunset and Twilight. Sunset and Twilight just looked at each other with a concerned look. Then turned to Bright Mac and raised an eyebrow.
"You sure?" Sunset asked, "You don't seem sure." Sunset said. Bright Mac forced a smile.
"I'm sure." He replied simply.
"Alright well, Can we at least say bye?" Sunset asked. Bright mac nodded. They both went to Applejack's house. Applejack was helping her grandma pack.
"Applejack, Your friends are here." Applejack's grandmother said. Applejack nodded and went up to her friends. She smiled slightly but immediately frowned afterwords when all of them weren't here.
"Hey Applejack. Your dad told us you were moving. So we came to say goodbye." Twilight spoke softly. Applejack let out a shaky breath. She looked down at the floor, Refusing to face her friends. Because if she did, She would have a break down.
"Speaking of saying goodbye, Where's Rainbow Dash?" Pinkie asked. Everyone looked at each other.
"Anybody know?" Sunset asked. Everyone shrugged.
"I thought she'd be here to say bye to Applejack. That is her best friend." Fluttershy spoke.
"Right. We haven't heard from her since last week." Rarity said, Then something suddenly popped up on her mind. "Does she even know about this?" Rarity asked. Applejack didn't wanna look at her friends, But she knew she had to. She slowly looked up at all 5 of her friends that were concerned. She let out a sigh.
"No," She started. "No she doesn't.." Applejack mumbled, But her friends heard her.
"How come? Isn't she your best friend?" Pinkie asked. Applejack couldn't help it but crack a smile.
"Of course she is." Applejack said. Thinking about Rainbow Dash made her feel better, "She's literally my life.." Applejack mumbled. But of course her friends heard her.
"Oh really?" Rarity smirked. Applejack blushed whilst her eyes were wide.
"I-I..W-What did I say..?" Applejack asked. Pinkie giggled.
"We all heard you Jackie. Don't lie." Pinkie said. Applejack chuckled.
"Ya'll got me. But please forget that I said that!" Applejack said. Everyone giggled.
"Applejack! Time to go!" She heard her dad say, Applejack frowned.
"I gotta go guys.." Applejack said sadly.
"We're gonna miss you so much Jackie!" Pinkie cried and hugged Applejack tightly. Then everyone else joined the group hug. Applejack started crying. Yes, Because she was gonna miss all of her friends. Especially Rainbow Dash. And on top of that, She won't be able to say one last goodbye to Rainbow Dash. So that just made this day 5 times as worst.
"It's gonna be okay Applejack, You'll see us again eventually." Sunset reassured.
"And I'm sure you'll see Rainbow again also. And on top of that, You can still contact her." Fluttershy said. That's just it. She can't. They couldn't talk to each other anymore.
"I..I can't." Applejack said brokenly. However, Her friends were confused.
"Why not?" Pinkie asked.
"It's...I-...I can't tell you." Applejack said.
"Darling you know you could tell us anything right?" Rarity asked.
"I-I don't have time. I have to go." Applejack said. "One last hug before I go?" Applejack asked. Everyone nodded and gave Applejack one last hug. Pinkie was now crying uncontrollably.This was gonna be tough day today.

Meanwhile with Rainbow Dash, Rainbow was playing on her video game with her two friends. But Pinkie surprisingly wasn't playing. She got a bit worried, Pinkie is on this game 24/7.
"Guys, Have you heard from Pinkie today?" Rainbow asked. It took a little while for them to respond.
"No. I haven't heard from her today." One of her friends said.
"Me either. It's actually unlike her to not play this game." Her other friend said. Rainbow got worried. She decided to get off the game and call her to see what was up.
"Guys. I'ma log off for the day. See you guys later."
"Alright see ya."
Rainbow went off the game. She grabbed her phone from her nightstand and called Pinkie. But she didn't answer. Second time, No answer either. She decided to call Sunset to see if she knew what was up.
"Hey Dash."
"Hey Sunset. Have you heard from Pinkie today?"
"Yeah, I did. Why?"
"Oh..She wasn't on the game today like she always is. Is something wrong?"
She noticed that Sunset took a while to reply. Which meant something was wrong.
"Sunset..Is everything okay?"
"Well...You're the only person who didn't know about this. I don't know why though. But...Applejack moved today."
Rainbow's eyes widened in shock. Why didn't she tell her? Why did they move so soon? Rainbow kinda had a feeling she knew why for some reason. She was holding back the tears.
"R-Really?"
"Yeah..For some reason she said she couldn't talk to you. And your dad said the reason why they moved was because it had something to do with you. Is that true Dash?"
She was right. They moved because of her. She didn't know why she was so excited to get to know Applejack in the first place.
"W-Well..I....I don't know."
"It's okay Dash. But there has to be a reason why they're moving so soon. But I'ma leave you alone now. So I'll see ya later Rainbow Dash."
"See ya."
The call ended. Rainbow couldn't hold her tears anymore. So she put her face in her pillow and cried until she fell asleep.
▁▂▃▄▆✧▆▄▃▂▁
The 5 friends were sitting at the school statue on a Beautiful but gloomy Monday morning. Things really weren't the same anymore. Applejack moved too soon, Rainbow and Applejack won't talk to each other, It just confused them. What was the real reason why Applejack moved?
"I miss Applejack." Pinkie said emotionless.
"We do too Pinkie," Twilight spoke. "But I still wanna know the real reason why Applejack moved. I don't know about you guys but Applejack's Dad straight up lied to my face." Twilight said.
"You're not the only one," Sunset said. "I think he's lying also. This gotta be a misunderstanding or something. Rainbow would never do anything to Applejack or her family." Sunset said.
"Well, How are we gonna figure out the truth then? You know Applejack isn't gonna spill the beans. And neither is Rainbow Dash." Rarity said. Sunset thought about it for a moment, Including everyone else. Then Sunset suddenly smirked.
"I got an idea.." Sunset said.
"What is it Sunset?" Fluttershy asked.
"We're gonna call her. Then we'll act like we have to leave the phone for a second. Then we'll see if anything suspicious happens. Well I can't say it will, But we're just giving it a try." Sunset explained.
"And if That doesn't work?" Twilight asked.
"Then we'll just do it the hard way..."
