Hello and welcome back every pony to A Brony Life! And to start off, I would like to say that I am really sorry for taking forever. You see, my parents have this wedding photography business that is, to my surprise, actually really successful. And because of how successful it is, they convinced me to work for them. Which is really just once every weekend. An with it being 40-60 dollars a gig to stand around and just be a pack-mule, (Yeah, I'm living the dream huh?) I couldn't really say no.

Still, I'm glad that I'm finally getting some money in! It'll take me just two-thousand dollars and I can get my own truck!

Trixie: Pretty sure that they don't care about that.

Ruin my excitement why don't you! Anyway, this chapter's also going to have something new to it that no other chapter has had before! How?! Silly readers, I can't tell you that! It'd ruin the whole surprise!

Trixie: Then why bring it up?...*mumbles* Anyway! Let's go ahead and have the dares, then start the chapter! And speaking of start, let's go ahead and bring in the one character of the story that started it all! Blitz!

Blitz: *Walks into view with a smile* Hey there every pony!

Wait a second, you're actually glad to be in the intro?!

Blitz: Yeah man! I mean since Rainbow Dash is missing, that means there aren't any dares about us! *And almost on command, Rainbow Dash walks into view*

Dash: *frowns* Hey Zeke, so what dare do I have to-

Blitz and Dash: *sees one another and they immediately go wide-eyed* Oh no...

Yep! It's that kind of dare once again! Aren't they just fun?!

Blitz: Fun?! You call making me and Rainbow Dash make-out against our wills, fun?!

Trixie: Well Trixie thinks it's fun making you all a little miserable for the audience's entertainment.

Theo: *he jumps on Trixie's back* FUN! FUN! FUN!

Well with all six of us in agreement, Dino included as well, *Dino nods in approval before he and Theo run off to the side* let's see the dare!

Rainbow Dash: Wait a second, me and Blitz never agreed to-

I said! LETS SEE THE DARE!

Sent in from VintageThunder98: I dare Blitz to Grab Rainbow Dash and cradle her like in the movies and kiss her.

Dash: What?! Putting me in that superhero costume and love poisoning with Blitz wasn't enough?! And now we're being put in skits like this?!

Yeah, the reviewers are awesome like that! And we can't make it a clichéd movie scene without making it look like a clichéd movie scene! *looks off to the side* Wardrobe!

*Dino and Theo run back into view towards Blitz and Dash with a costume rack and a curtain*

Blitz and Dash: Woahwoahwoahwoah! *They try to run away, but the curtain appears around them as Theo and Dino catch them, putting them in costumes*

*After the curtain disappears, Dino and Theo go back to Zeke and Trixie. Leaving Dash and Blitz to look at their costumes*

Blitz: Uh... All that trouble and they only put me in a grey fedora? *he looks up at the hat on his head in confusion*

Dash: Hey, why am I in a girly dress?! *She looks at the clichéd romance movie dress she's in, angry since it looked like a dress only Rarity would wear*

Trixie: What part of 'clichéd movie scene' did you not get? *looks to Zeke* Trixie thought that would be obvious.

Yeah, me too. Oh well! Ready and... *pulls out movie clapper board and gets it ready* ACTION! *uses clapper board*

Dash: Hold on, hold on! Do you honestly think that we're gonna just go along with-WOAH! *caught off-guard when Blitz sweeps her off her hooves and holds her just like in the movies* What are you-

Blitz: We're not getting out of this since we both signed the stupid contracts. Let's just get it over with.

Dash: Wait a second, you're actually going to-mmf! *Blitz cuts her off as he kisses her just like in the movie, making her go wide-eyed in surprise*

Blitz: *after about a seven second kiss, he ends it and set Rainbow Dash down. Who simply faints from what just happened* Okay. Now are we done here?

Trixie: Just about, we only need to do the top three comments than one more dare. So you go ahead and start waking her up while we list them.

3: Gakuseiakira. Really? To be honest, your avatar pony looks pretty cool! And if that does ever happen to you, please tell Discord to come to my house next! I really want to go to Equestria too!

Trixie: But if you actually came to Equestria, you wouldn't be able to make anymore stories. Not to mention, your family probably wouldn't come.

... DANG IT, NOW IT'S A HARD CHOICE TO MAKE!

Blitz: You know what's even harder? Waking Rainbow Dash up! *at this point, he's lightly slapping her face with his right hoof (not robotic one) repeatedly*

Oh, I'm sure she'll wake up in a few seconds. Especially after I announce the next top comment!

2: Sledzax1235. (Levi)

Dash: *Immediately wakes up* WHO?! *Tries to fly up quickly, but slams into Blitz. Sending them into the air, and back onto the ground. Blitz on the ground with Rainbow Dash on top of them. Their lips connecting for a few moments before they both pull away, red as the apples that grow at Sweet Apple Acres! BUY NOW! (Yes, this is an advertisement)*

Dash: That was a total accident, I swear!

Trixie: Sure it was Rainbow Dash... Sure it was... *unconvinced*

Dash: No, seriously! It's like whenever some pony says his name, we end up kissing somehow!

Oh come on, that's just stupid. Watch, I'll prove you're wrong. Sledzax1235. *Suddenly, a small piece of rock falls onto Rainbow Dash's head, making her bump into Blitz who is still under her. Making them kiss again*

Oh, well I guess that is true! Levi, keep sending in dares and awesome QotC's!

Blitz and RD: NO! *go wide-eyed as they get off of each other, going to opposite sides of me and Trixie*

1: VintageThunder98. HA, I see what you did there! And I'm so glad that some pony has seen my profile! Great use of it too! It makes me so grateful to see that you used it, you have no idea!

Trixie: None of you also know how it gives him a bigger ego...

Says the mare that tried to up-stage all of Ponyville! Anyway, with all that said and done, let's do one more dare before we go!

Blitz and Dash: ANOTHER ONE?!

Don't worry! This one's only for Blitz! And here it is!

Sent in from NoPonyYouKnow: I dare Blitz to fight an army of the undead using only his tail as a weapon.

Blitz: Wait, an army of the undead? *thinks for a second* How many is that exactly?

For the purpose of making it exact, we're going to say one-hundred. And for added effect... *Snaps fingers and the one-hundred zombies spawn a good distance away. As well as me, Trixie, and RD appearing in an announcer booth floating in the air.* We're going to use a personal creation of mine! Shadow Zombies!

Note: Shadow Zombies are just as vicious, scary, and look just like normal zombies! Not to mention, they can still scratch, claw, rip apart, and of course, bite you and turn you into a zombie too! Except they're kind of darker like a shadow. Only real difference is, once they're defeated, their bodies don't splatter onto the ground and leave a mess! Instead, they just disappear like a puff of smoke!

Dash: Wait a second, you mean Blitz can actually die down there?! *Looks over the booth counter*

Aw! You don't want your coltfriend to get killed huh? *Rainbow Dash then bucks me right where the sun don't shine, making me fall down in pain*

Trixie: Calm down Rainbow Dash, we still need him alive to make these stories. But yes, we wouldn't let it happen. We have Zombrex. (Another Advertisement! BUY NOW) And if Blitz losses then we'll just announce it to the audience and take Blitz out before he turns into a real zombie. But Trixie doesn't think we'll have to do that.

*Camera pans below to show Blitz just slicing off all the heads of shadow zombies around him. Already have taken down forty-four walkers. He then smashed one into the ground by flying on top of it. Making forty-five kills*

Blitz: What? The dare says only use the tail as a weapon, remember?! Nothing says I can't just uppercut their heads off or something. *Which is exactly what he does to the closest zombie before spinning like a top. Slashing any zombies that come near him and his sword-like tail into shadowy salsa*

Dash: Woohoo! GO BLITZ!

This is...Too easy for him... *I mumble in pain*

Trixie: Trixie agrees... Bring in the Left 4 Dead special zombies!

*At that moment, two of the remaining ten shadow zombies turn into Shadow Chargers. Three into Shadow Hunters. One into a Shadow Jockey. Another into a Shadow Spitter. Two into Shadow Witches. And the final one into, you guessed it Left 4 Dead fans! A SHADOW TANK!*

Blitz: WOAH! *Starts running around, avoiding Chargers, a Jockey, and Hunters as he got shot at by acid and giant pieces of the ground*

Dash: BLITZ! *She yelled out, terrified for what may happen unless Coach and Ellis come in to help*

*smiles as I stand up. Now feeling goo enough to commentate. Although I keep my distance from Dash* Oh I love our job! Don't you Trixie?!

Trixie: Almost enough to bare sharing the camera with the likes of you! Oh well! The Great and Powerful Trixie, and zeke, will see you all next intro every pony! Goodbye!

Blitz: *takes out a Hunter before narrowly avoiding some more acid* Wait a second, help me out here!

Dash: *Flies down and smashes the Jockey before it got to Blitz* Don't worry, I'm helping! *A Shadow Charger then rams her from behind, getting her away from Blitz*

Blitz: RAINBOW DASH! *Gets hit by a shot of acid, leaving him at next to no health. Luckily, he takes out the Tank after throwing his metal tail right into his head*

Well, this battle will be a close one... Too bad we won't get to see the ending of it! See you next time every pony! And don't worry! Results of the battle will be brought up next intro!

Intro Area Decorations to Date: A very realistic sky with a sun in the middle, A baby pony-sized T-Rex with a top hat named Dino, the TARDIS, a giant golden statue of Stepony (Pony Stephano) who is wearing a Trixie shirt, a silver Lucario statue standing right next to Stepony, and a baby ninja bear with a ninja mask and wooden katana named 'The Intelligent and Creative Theodore' (Theo).

Applejack's POV

"Alright Big Mac, I'm a goin' ta Ponyville fer a while. Ya sure you can handle the rest a the west field?" I asked him, looking off from the entrance. I had to go off to Ponyville to tell the others something important.

"Eeyup." He answered, sounding pretty sure of himself. And since it was only like a quarter of the west field, there wasn't much to worry about.

But heading off to Ponyville, I wondered how the others would take the news. I mean, it was out of nowhere. Plus, Appleloosa was about a day's travel from Ponyville. Of course, it was only supposed to be a week. So I'm sure it won't be that much to worry about. Besides, it's not like anything's gonna happen this week right? I mean, what's the chanced of that happening?

So as I got to the outskirts of Ponyville, I saw Rarity's Boutique in view. It being the one place out of all my friend's houses that were closest to Sweet Apple Acres.

Getting to the door, I knocked on it. Expecting Rarity to be coming right away. Of course, I wouldn't throw out the idea of her still being in bed. It was at least three hours until her Boutique's 'Opening Hours'. Even though she never really enforced them since she comes and goes from her boutique whenever she wants. Still, she might've been getting in her beauty sleep or something.

After about a minute going by, me knocking on the door every ten seconds or so, I gave up and looked up to her bedroom window. "Hey Rarity! Ya in there?!" I yelled out, the window being opened. But, there was still no answer.

"Now what's goin' on? Rarity usually ain't out a her home this early." I said to myself, taking one more look threw the window. That's when I saw the sign in the window. "Back in ten minutes." I read out loud.

Shrugging, I moved onto getting back to the town. I still had to find one of the others, and if anything Rarity was probably with one of them.

So continuing on, I headed off to Sugarcube Corner. That being the next place that was nearby. And getting to the giant gingerbread house, I got to the door and face-planted into it. I had tried to open it, but since I didn't expect it to be locked, I ran right into it.

But this time I saw the sign on the door. It giving me a hint as to where every pony was. "At Town Hall for Assembly." I read out-loud.

"Assembly? How come no pony came and told us?" I questioned out-loud. Not to mention, what assembly? I never heard anything about it yesterday.

Still though, if an assembly was going on right now, that meant that I had to high-tail it on over there. But just what could it be about?

---

Twilight's POV

So as we all grouped around the stage that was set up around Town Hall for the emergency assembly, we saw the mayor at the podium. Obviously. Along with her was a few of the mayoral staff, the Quill and Sofa shopkeeper, who was looking very upset right now, and some pony I didn't recognize before. It was a unicorn with a grey coat and a brown mane/tail. She also had glasses, a Cutie Mark of what looked like two judgmental eyes behind a pair of glasses resembling her own, and grey magenta eyes. Which were focusing on a clipboard that was levitating in front of her face.

"Now every pony, please remain calm!" Mayor Mare told us all while at the podium. "I know that these sudden events are a little shocking, but there is nothing to worry about!"

"Nothing to worry about?! The Quills and Sofas store was robbed!" Rainbow Dash reminded her, not happy that the mayor was trying to pass this off as not a big deal.

"This is not good at all!" Rarity added, angry as well. "What if those ill-mannered thieves go after my boutique next?! All my hard work will have been for nothing!" She yelled out, being just a little too dramatic about it.

"Or our bakery?!" Mr. Cake included, worried about his bakery. And more importantly, his family that lived in the bakery.

"What about the library?" I also brought in. Sure it might not be a prime location for thieves, but it still was a possibility.

"I know that you are all worried, but I assure you that everything will be just fine!" Mayor Mare told us with a confident smile.

"You mean that you have some pony looking for them... R-right?" Fluttershy asked, very scared as to what might happen.

"Well... No." Mayor Mare said sadly. Which made us all start to get angry at her. But it wasn't that unreasonable of us to do! She had no pony looking for them?! Sure crime was extremely rare in Ponyville, but that didn't mean that it was unheard of!

"LOOK!" The unicorn yelled out, taking Mayor Mare's place at the podium and speaking up. Not to mention, just by the forcefulness of that one word alone, she made us all quiet down. And even go as far as to make Fluttershy flinch in fear.

As soon as we all quieted down, she spoke up again. Still a great amount of forcefulness in her voice, but not as much as before. "We realize just how upset all of you are about this, but I'm afraid that what the mayor said is true! We can't reinforce any security at the moment due to budget cuts! Some of the construction projects are behind due to unforeseen circumstances, new residents have recently moved into Ponyville thus making us have to spend more money to help get them situated! And finally, the delivery system has been at an all time low! So, we are very low on funds and can not spend any on any law enforcement!" She told us all, being very straight about it all. It almost sounding as if she was very angry at all of us.

This made us very quiet afterwards. We had no response for all this news, and no way to answer to what she said.

"As of right now, we only have one solution for now! We are hear by issuing a curfew for every pony within Ponyville! Every pony is to be inside their homes by sun-down to sun-rise!" She concluded. This making most of us start to yell again.

The unicorn, instead of simply respond to us, just turned and left the stage. Ignoring our anger completely.

The mayor, along with the rest of the mayoral staff, had no other choice but to leave as well. They didn't have much of a choice though, considering how angry the crowd had gotten. They didn't look very pleased about doing so either. Especially the mayor, who I could have almost sworn was glaring slightly towards the unicorn.

After they all left, the crowd started to go on with the rest of their, now shortened, day. This just leaving me, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy to try and figure out what we do now.

"Well this is just great!" Rainbow Dash yelled out sarcastically. "Now not only are there thieves in Ponyville, but we have a curfew!" She complained.

"I know!" Pinkie Pie agreed with a nod. "Every pony knows that the best kinds of parties end AFTER sun-down! Now we can't have any funerific parties anymore! And I already bought all that apple flavored punch for my next party! Who's gonna help me drink all of it now?!" Pinkie asked, not seeing the big issue.

"Well right now, I think we should focus on the bigger problems. We still need to tell Applejack, Spike, and Blitz the bad news. No doubt that they're gonna want to know what's going on." I told them, trying to make them all focus.

"Don't worry y'all. I heard the whole thing." A voice called out from behind us. And turning around, we saw Applejack coming our way. "I can't believe it myself either." She added.

"I know, it's dreadful is it not?" Rarity asked, very upset about it all. "How long will this have to go on for?"

"Don't know. I just hope none a them trouble-makin' thieves set a hoof in Sweet Apple Acres." She said, now concerned about her family's farm.

"Well, guess now we should warn Spike and Blitz." I said, noting how Applejack was now here.

"About that, I got somethin' I need ta tell y'all." Applejack told us.

"Whatever do you mean?" Rarity asked for us all.

"Ya see, Blitz left town yesterday." She told us, being straight forward about it.

"What?!" I asked, shocked as the rest of them. "What do you mean he left town?!"

"He was askin' me if I new a smaller town that he could go ta practice his bitonics at for a little while. Someplace dry and not too far from here. So, I told him 'bout Appleloosa and how it was pretty dry. He thanked me then high-tailed it to the train station, tellin' me ta tell all of you." She told us, explaining it.

"Why didn't he tell us?! We could've all gone there and had a party at Appleloosa! We could've even invited all out buffalo and Appleloosan friends!" Pinkie Pie said, sad that she was goin to miss out on a trip outside of Ponyville.

"He said that he didn't wanna tell any a y'all cause you'd probably wanna come with 'em. Only reason he told me is cause he knew I had family all across Equestria, and he wanted me ta watch RJ while he was gone fer around a week." She explained further.

"Well, can't say he's wrong about that." I admitted, looking towards the others. "If he told any of us he was leaving for the week, then we'd probably want to go anyway." I said my theory, making a few of them understand. "Plus, if he wanted to go somewhere other than Ponyville, then his bionics might be a little dangerous." I added.

"Maybe we should go and meet him in Appleloosa..." Fluttershy spoke up. "I don't want to be in Ponyville with those mean thieves."

"I'm afraid that won't be permitted." We all jumped a little in shock as the unicorn from earlier came back. Sneaking up behind us.

"Where'd you even come from?!" Rainbow Dash asked, annoyed at this mare already. The curfew law she just put in not helping. Speaking of...

"How come you can permit a curfew?" I asked. "Shouldn't the mayor be the only one allowed to do that?" I asked her.

"Yeah!" Rainbow Dash agreed, getting in her face. Which wasn't helping at all. "We didn't exactly see the mayor liking your little curfew! Who gave you permission to do something like that anyway?!" She asked, making a good point despite her presentation.

"The laws created by a previous mayor before Mayor Mare. One by the name of Chitter Chatter, after coming up with a plan for fending off bandits." She explained to us. And even though Pony Valley was destroyed long before Ponyville became a place, the book of their laws were still maintained.

"And the law states that: 'If any bandits or outlaws', keep in mind that this was written quite some time ago, 'are up to wrong doings such as attacking citizens, theft, or owning a Timberwolf within the borders of the town, either the mayor or secretary may issue a curfew to help keep the citizens of the town safe'." She finished, the law being said word for word.

"And what does that have to do with us taking the train?" Rarity asked, raising an eyebrow towards her.

"Curfew also states that there no pony may leave Ponyville by train or cab unless they go through a background check. And even then, it can only be permitted by the mayor or secretary." I answered for her with a frown, me and the unicorn knowing that she had us beat.

"Correct. And as of right now, all of you are suspects." She answered, looking at us. "The sales pony of the targeted store said he saw multiple ponies. Four to be exact. And I've seen all of your records. You six alone have caused many problems before." She said, glancing over all of us rather quickly.

"Are you implying that four of us are the thieves?!" Rarity asked, astonished at the accusation.

"Oh no... I would never steal some pony else's things... Never." Fluttershy added, scared that she was going to be in trouble for something she didn't do.

"I only admit to stealing the three delicious C's! Cupcakes, candy, and churros!" Pinkie Pie yelled out, me not able to find out if she was kidding or not.

"I live outside a Ponyville! And I can say without a doubt that my friends here wouldn't steal from another pony's business!" Applejack defended us.

"I know you all have your excuses, but I'm not ruling any of you out. So until then, none of you are leaving the town limits of Ponyville. That including the forest, lake, farm, and pastures. Not to mention, if you are all seen doing anything suspicious, then I'll personally take you all in for questioning for the greater good of Ponyville." She told us.

"How did you even become the secretary for Mayor Mare anyway?! And who are you?! And why are you doing this?!" I asked in anger that she was treating my friends like this.

"I don't need to tell any of you my backstory. Nor do I need to state my reasons. As for my name, I am addressed as Misty Glance. Now then, I have many other duties to attend to. So have a nice day." She said, walking away.

But before she was gone, she turned back around. "Oh yes. Here are a list of other events that will be changing." She said, tossing a sealed list, which I caught with my magic.

I then opened it, the others grouping up around me to see for themselves.

"What's it say, what's it say?!" Pinkie asked, not able to get a good look at the list of restrictions. So, this led her to balancing herself on Applejack's hat. Who didn't mind because she was trying to see just what the note said too.

"Due to the curfew being enforced, the following will not be permitted:" I started, reading the list allowed.

"One. No large gatherings or celebrations unless approved by mayoral staff." I started.

"What?!" Pinkie Pie yelled out, falling off of Applejack's hat in shock. Though somehow, she got up from the ground in between me and the restrictions, looking at the paper herself. "That's not right! What about tomorrow?! It's supposed to be Derpy's Birthday! I promised to bake her a giant muffin and everything!" She yelled out, heart-broken that one of her friends will be forced to miss their own birthday.

But knowing that there were more, I got the paper back and read on for the others. Getting my own space so I wasn't surrounded. "Two. No contact to any pony outside of Ponyville. This including family." I read.

"Now wait a apple pickin' minute! Is that Glance mare sayin' that I can't even so much as talk ta my family back at Sweet Apple Acres?! But they're gonna start worryin' about what happened ta me sooner er later!" Applejack asked, now very mad and upset about that rule.

"Three. No dangerous stunts that might cause harm to yourself or others. This including Pegasi with using wings. Though they are permitted for weather purposes only. Free time or travel must be down on the ground with a safe activity." I read off.

"I'm not even allowed to fly?!" Rainbow Dash asked in furiousness. "What the hay does flying have to do with anything?! I mean, that means I can't even fly into my own house, let alone take a nap on a cloud!" She complained, angry that she pretty much had nothing left to do.

"Four. No caring for, or assisting any wild life. Only pets that are kept on leashes, or indoors, are permitted." I continued, knowing just who this was going to affect.

"Oh no! Angel!" Fluttershy yelled out in fear, flying home as fast as she could to try and get Angel and some of her other critters safe before she got caught.

"Five. Selling of unrequired objects are strictly prohibited. This including flowers, candy, toys, books, dresses, etc." I read off, using my magic to create earmuffs to block the incredibly loud shriek that was about to come from Rarity.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!" Rarity shrieked in utter astonishment, not sure how else to respond. "Out of every restriction, that Misty Glance had to issue, this it THE! WORST! POSSIBLE! ONE!" Rarity yelled out so loudly, the others had to cover their ears. Rarity then levitated a pillow over to where she was, not able to get her couch in time, and passed out onto it.

"Six." I started, reading the final restriction about the curfew. "Any letter must be sent through mailing services, and approved by mayoral staff." And knowing the routine, this meant that this rule had to have effected me. And I knew just how it would.

"I can't send any letters to the princess..." I said in shock, aimed more towards myself. If I sent the message through the mail and not through Spike, then it would immediately be considered one of the thousands of letters from the rest of the subjects of Equestria. Meaning that she would never get it.

All of us, every single one of us, hated each and every one of these rules. They were common enough to affect every pony else if you thought about them, but you could also tell that they were aimed more towards us than the rest of Ponyville. But why?

Why would she sign up these rules to torture us? We've never even met her before today, and we're not destructive towards the town... At least, most of the time. But we still clean up any mistakes, and have even saved Ponyville on multiple occasions!

"Hey! Let go of my scooter!" When we heard that angry yell, all four of us, not including Rarity of Fluttershy since they were pre-occupied, turned towards the sound. And when we did, we saw Misty Glance trying to use her magic to take Scootaloo's scooter away.

"I'm sorry miss, but the rules clearly state that you are not allowed to ride your scooter since it's dangerous. You need to give it up." Misty said, trying to shake the scooter away from Scootaloo's grasp.

"Hold on!" Rainbow Dash commanded, flying over and helping to take Scootaloo's scooter back. "You can't just take her scooter away!" She argued.

"I'm afraid I can. The rules state that there are no dangerous stunts allowed. Not to mention, she's disturbing the peace with it, and is using her wings for a purpose other than weather patrol. I warned her not to use this, but she ignored me and just road right past me. Coming within two feet of me I might add. So, all these reasons allow me to confiscate her scooter until either the curfew is lifted, or whenever I deem fit. And right now, resisting confiscation is only making it... Worse!" She said, now able to levitate the scooter out of the two pegasi's grasp.

"This isn't fair!" Rainbow Dash said, flying in front of Misty to stop her before she could get away. "Are you seriously going to take a scooter from a little filly?!"

"I'm afraid that it's my job to enforce the law. Now if you'll excuse me, I must make sure that every pony else is made aware of the restrictions." She said, walking off. But not before stopping and turning around. "Oh yes, and miss? There is no flying allowed unless you're working on the weather. Land now, or else you will have to be turned in for questioning." She said, walking off once again for the final time today.

"Err..." Rainbow Dash growled in anger as she landed hesitantly, not happy about it. She then sighed in defeat and turned to Scootaloo. "I'm sorry about your scooter Scoots." She apologized, feeling as if it was her fault that she couldn't keep Scootaloo's prized scooter.

"Don't worry about it Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo said, not mad at her at all. "Besides, you weren't the one who stole it." She said, glaring down the path Misty Glance was walking. But that didn't last long as she just sighed in sadness herself. "I'm just gonna go somewhere to try and relax for the rest of the day." She said, trying to act strong in front of Rainbow Dash as she walked off somewhere. Though, I could see just out of the corner of my eye a tear fall from Scootaloo's face. Showing me that she wasn't going to take it well for much longer.

After she was gone, Rainbow Dash was tensing up. Trying to hold in all her anger. She wasn't one for following anything too strict, and these rules were already getting out-of-hoof as it is.

"I'm sorry Angel, but you're not allowed to go anywhere without a leash." Fluttershy said as she came back with Angel on her back. Who was not the least bit content with the leash around his neck. Fluttershy wasn't holding the end though as it just lay off to the side of her back.

Rainbow Dash didn't even need to turn around to know what was going on. Just that much information mad her angrier.

That's when Rarity started to wake up. "Wow, I just had the most horrendous dream! I was told that a curfew was to be put in motion, and that I wouldn't be allowed to open my boutique!"

"Oh, that sounds just like what actually happened!" Pinkie Pie told her with a smile. This making Rarity go wide-eyed and fall back into her pillow unconscious yet again. "Was I in your dream?! Was I?! Was I?!" She asked, jumping up and down in hopes that she was.

"That's it!" Rainbow Dash finally burst out. "We can't just let this go on! We need to fix this! Now!" She yelled out in anger, hovering in the air with her wings once again.

Applejack brought her back down to the ground, frowning at her. "And how do ya suppose we do that? We ain't able ta even talk ta each other with that Misty Glance given us the stink eye!" Applejack reminded her.

That's when I got an idea! "That may be true, but it wouldn't be considered suspicious behavior if we all headed back to the library to try and find a solution! I have plenty on books on the laws for Ponyville there, and I'm sure that we can find something!" I said hopefully, sure that we'd find the answer.

"Good thinkin' Twi! Let's go every pony. We gotta loop-hole ta find." Applejack said, heading off to the library with the rest of us following. Pinkie Pie bringing the still passed out Rarity along with a wheelbarrow.

"And all day to do it..." Rainbow Dash mumbled, still upset that she couldn't fly. But she had a point. With all the free time on our hooves, not to mention all six of us plus Spike to help, I bet we'll find it in no time!

"Ugh... Twilight give up..." Spike said as he laid on a small pile of books, extremely tired by this point. As was every pony else. We had been working none stop, looking through every book with extreme focus ever since we got back to the library. Of course, when we told Spike he was on board with helping us as well. At least, when he heard just what happened with Scootaloo and the rest of us. And of course... Rarity acting so emotional about it. Oh well, at least he was happy to help us out now.

"No way Spike, there has to be some way for us to be able to fight this curfew off. Or at least, try to help stop it." I said, looking at every possible book I could read. Of course, it was pretty hard with just the candle light. And me being really tired too. The sun had gone down three or four hours ago. Plus without any break in between then and now, I had even managed to work myself down.

But honestly, could you blame me? By the time we had heard the news and now, we had carefully read all the books on the first floor. This leading us to now be on the second floor where my bed, along with my favorite and more important books were. So the book we needed had to be up here. And if not, then it was either in the basement or we didn't have it at all.

"Come on Spike," Pinkie Pie started, interrupting herself with a yawn. Showing that even she was getting tired by this point. "if we don't find a way to throw Derpy a birthday party, then who will?" She asked, still focusing on that.

In fact, she and Rainbow Dash were the only ones still awake. The others had fallen asleep already. But Rainbow Dash wasn't to far behind as she face-planted with the current book she had in her hooves. This making her jolt up awake, but only for a second before she yawned herself.

"Well we can always look tomorrow." Spike argued. "There's nothing stopping us from going to bed right now anyway." He said, laying in his bed to fall asleep. Which he was forced to share with Angel since he was too tired to move him out of his bed.

"Well I guess you have a point Spike. We don't have to figure an answer out right this moment." I agreed, my own drowsiness not able to let me disagree all that easily.

So getting one of the sleeping bags ready to sleep on, Rarity having fallen asleep on my own bed, I started to fall asleep. As did Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie as they got into their sleeping bags as well.

And right as we started to fall asleep, I could feel it freezing in the room. "Rainbow Dash... Shut the window..." I heard Spike mumble, not able to fall asleep with it being so cold in here.

"Ugh, fine..." Rainbow Dash said, getting up to close the window. Only... "Hey, wait a minute. The window's already shut!" She said, looking up at the window.

"What do you mean the window's closed?" Spike asked, looking up.

"It just is, see?" She asked, gesturing to the only window in the room. Which was in fact, closed.

"That's odd..." I said, now getting up. "The only other way there could be a breeze was if there's a hole in the roof, or the front door and the window next to the door was wide open." I said in confusion. Yes that was very detailed, but it was the truth. I had tested it for any cross-breeze in case I wanted to open a window while I worked on a report, and that was the only way the breeze could be this strong.

"So who left the front door open?" Rarity asked, waking up from all our talking.

"No pony." Pinkie Pie answered, confused. "I remember that Spike closed the door after Twilight opened it on him." She said, answering the question.

"Oh yeah, hehehe... Sorry Spike." I apologized, not meaning to do that earlier.

"Wait." Applejack asked, waking up from our talking too. "So if Spike closed the door, but it and the window's open, then who do you think..."

We all gasped at once, realizing just what happened. "The Thieves!" We all yelled out, jumping out of beds and getting to the stairway. And as we did, we heard four sets of hooves scrambling around downstairs.

Sadly, since all seven of us got to the stairway at the same time, we got stuck. But still hearing the hoof-steps downstairs, we all tried to force our way through. And after a few more seconds, we finally got through the door frame. And tumbled down the stairs all at once. Landing at the bottom in one big pile. Me on the top.

That's when I spotted the thieves all heading out my front door, along with most of my books missing from the bookshelves. Along with tons of books spread all over the floor from their ransacking. And just after I had put all the books back from our search too.

As they all started running out the door, the final one slipped on a misplaced book. The other three just leaving him behind. And as he got up to catch up with the others, I jumped off the pile of my friends.

"Hold it right there!" I yelled out, chasing after him as he ran out the door. But the second I got to the doorway, I saw that he, along with his friends an a wheelbarrow full of the stolen books all halted as they looked up towards a roof ahead of my house. And looking up, I could see just why they stood still.

On the roof, stood a shadow looking down upon all of us. Not even reacting in any way, or moving. Just staring at them with an eerie glance. Almost as if it was saying, 'I dare you' to the thieves.

But they didn't stand down. One picked up a stick and held it in his mouth as a way of defending himself. While the other two got their horns ready. Aimed towards the figure. The one that had tripped earlier though, just stood in fear.

When the two unicorn thieves fired at the figure though, it just stepped forward once. Letting itself fall off the edge of the roof and land on the ground. And looking up, he saw the pony with a stick start to run towards him, ready to fight.

But before he could get close, the mysterious pony just through what looked like a small bottle at the thief. And on contact, the bottle broke an the thief got covered in some kind of goo. But when it made contact, he ignored it and just kept running forward towards the figure. Who in retaliation, simply side-stepped out of the way casually. But instead of changing his course, the thief just kept running forward. Ramming face-first into the wall of the building, sliding to the ground in pain. With the stick still in his mouth too.

But that wasn't the end of it as the two unicorn thieves stood side by side, charging up their magic and firing both blast at him at once. And since the blasts were so close to one another, it mixed into one magical beam coming towards the figure.

But about half way towards the target, lightning suddenly flashed behind the figure. Showing a silhouette of the pony to reveal that it had a horn of its own. Showing that it was a unicorn as well. Not only that, but I was able to tell that the unicorn was charging up some magic of it's own.

Right before the thieves' combined attack could hit the figure, it fired its own magical blast. But instead of being an aura blast, it was blue lightning. And since lightning was easily faster and stronger than normal aura, it canceled out the mixed aura blast with ease.

The two thieves had looks of great fear plastered on their faces. And without so much as a second thought, they made a run for it. This leaving behind not only the stolen books, but the other two thieves as well.

The thief I chased out of my library noticed this right away, and seeing that he was now alone with the figure in front of him, and me and my now recovered friends behind me, he tried to run as well.

"Stop him!" I yelled out, turning to chase the third thief. As were the others.

But before we could, the mysterious unicorn simply held out a hoof towards us, motioning us to stop. And although he didn't say anything, it was command enough.

"And just who are you anyway?" Rainbow Dash asked, starting to fly over. But before she could, the unicorn fired a small electrical blast from its horn. Purposefully missing Rainbow Dash just to keep her from getting close enough. But it kept its magic charged in case she tried to come near it again.

Getting the message, Rainbow Dash slowly flew back over towards us. Keeping her distance from him.

"Who are you anyway?" I asked him. "And why did you tell us not to follow the thieves?" I questioned further.

But instead of answering me, he simply raised his hoof and spit onto the top of it before turning towards the thief that was trying to get up off the ground. That stupid stick still in his mouth.

That's when the weird part happened. The unicorn pointed his hoof towards the only thief left with great force, this making his whole leg and hoof stretch out towards the thief, grabbing him from twenty feet away and sending him over towards the unicorn. Almost as if he was stretching his leg out like rubber to grab the thief.

And as the unicorn held out the thief in front of itself, the figure used a free hoof to pull out a small piece of paper and pencil. Putting the pencil in its mouth, he wrote a quick small note on it before sticking the paper to the thieves face.

Once that was done, he stretched out his arm towards with the thief in the stretching leg's hoof. Sending the thief into the side of the wheelbarrow. The force of the stretching arm knocking him out against the wheelbarrow with a hit to the head.

We all gathered around the thief, not able to see his face with the paper on his face. The writing on the paper only saying this:

Dear ponies (plus baby dragon),

Turn this thief into Mayor Mare at the next assembly tomorrow, THEN pour water down his face.

If you are asked anything about me, simply say that my name is...

-Mr. S.

Before we could even question just who this mysterious stallion was, or how he was able to use such advanced spells like conjure lightning or enchant himself with physical manipulation, or even ask just how the paper was almost glued to the thief's face without any tape, glue, or tack, we all looked up to see that 'Mr. S', was gone.
