SYNOPSIS

The Cuite Mark Crusaders, with Applejack as their caretaker, head out on a train bound for Appleloosa, ending up in an eerie ghost town. Although things seem nice enough at first, it doesn't take long for the fillies to realize something is amiss. Applejack does her best to protect Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo, but the young fillies' curious nature gets the best of them. The Cutie Mark Crusaders become reluctant heroes as they slowly uncover the mystery shrouding the darkest corners of an ancient town called Happy Hollow.

Author's Note:

This is the first story I'm submitting to fimfiction and I personally thank you if you plan on taking the time to read it. I've been working on this story for some time now, and I plan on releasing new chapters as soon as possible. This particular story will consist of five chapters. This is the first work of prose that I've created involving ponies, although I do write a web comic called "Ask Crapplejack", which you may or may not have heard of. If you have seen it, you may know what to expect from my work. I can guarantee you this is going to be a fun ride if you wish to take it with me. Thanks again for taking the time to read this. I hope you like grimdark. - Devnul
