"I am so jealous of you," Scootaloo told her friend. "The first Cutie Mark Crusader to earn her cutie mark, and what a mark it is." She reached out with her hoof and lightly touched it. "Well, you know what this means, we need to get your cute-cenara organised, with baloons and loot bags and food and maybe Pinkie Pie will let us borrow her Party Cannon. And all of our friends will be there and your parents can come too and they'll be so proud of you, as proud as I am," Scootaloo said, excited now, hovering off the ground as her wings flapped frantically to keep her body aloft. "It's going to be the best cute-cenara ever." As they headed off towards Sugarcube Corner, they passed Twilight Sparkle who was going the other way. Twilight saw the new cutie mark and stared at it. Is that mark what I think it is? I need to get back home and look it up in my book of all known cutie marks to make sure it is what I think it is. She said nothing about it to Sweetie Belle; if she was innocent she didn't want to needlessly offend her, and if she was guilty, she didn't want her to teleport to somewhere where she could not be extradited from.

As soon as she got back home she reached for a book called The Heraldry of Cutie Marks-what they can tell you and looked up the mark she had clearly seen upon Sweetie Belle's flank. A cloak and dagger. Whilst many cutie marks represent not jobs but pony hopes, this one generally only forms upon the flank of a genuine and accomplished spy, a sure sign of treachery at a high level. As such the owners of this cutie mark normally hide it under clothing or disguise it when in public. Twilight sighed. She liked Sweetie Belle, but this meant that Diamond Tiara was innocent and wrongly sent to the moon. She wrote a letter to Celestia explaining what she had seen.

Dear Princess Celestia, Sweetie Belle got her cutie mark at last, and I looked it up and it is the cutie mark that represents a spy. That means there is a high chance that a mistake was made and Diamond Tiara was wrongly sent to the moon. Soon enough the reply came back.

Dear Twilight, I will send a team of Royal Guards over and take Sweetie Belle into custody. If they find clear evidence of spying, I will punish Sweetie Belle myself by royal decree, and yes, I will bring back Diamond Tiara, as even I make mistakes sometimes. If no evidence is found, then this matter is closed, Diamond Tiara stays on the moon, and you will say sorry to Sweetie Belle for trying to get her in trouble.

Sweetie Belle was loving being the center of attention at her cute-cenara, as her friends were almost queueing up to ogle at and lightly stroke her cutie mark, and the party, aided by Pinky Pie's party cannon was in full swing,with food, music and dancing-until the Royal Guards crashed it, and slapped a magic blocking ring on her horn and cuffs on her legs. A unicorn captain said "Sweetie Belle, we are arresting you for spying for the Griffins and high treason against Equestria. Search her bedroom." When her bedroom was searched they came across bits. A huge number of bits. A few bits would mean nothing, they could be explained away as pocket money, but there were many thousands of bits here,and since Sweetie Belle was jobless and no large robberies had happened recently, it could only mean she was a spy. Soon enough Princess Celestia turned up and glared at Sweetie Belle.

"Sweetie Belle, not only did your actions lead to the deaths or kiddnapping of many innocent ponies, not only did it mean that my forceshield plan was ruined and a large part of the Royal Equestriain Army has had to be stationed on the frontier instead, not only will it take many hours of diplomatic talks to get the hostages released. All that is bad enough, but you framed up an innocent pony and made my justice and by extension, my royal person, look bad in the process. You are an outlaw now, you will be banished to the heart of the Everfree Forest, anypony can do what they want with you should they see you again., and what you did will be publicised through all of Equestria. Last but not least, that horn of yours will be sawed off here and now."

"No, please...not my horn, I'll never be able tp pick anything up except in my mouth ever again..." Tears burst from Sweetie Belle's eyes as a unicorn used his magic to place a hacksaw blade against her horn and start sawing. All too soon for Sweetie Belle her horn came off and fell to the floor in front of her. The physical pain was no worse then that of getting one's nails cut, but the emotional pain was huge. She was nothing more then a weak earth pony now, unable to teleport or use telekinisis for the rest of her life. Then Celestia teleported her to the heart of the Everfree Forest, the most dangerous place in all of Equestria.

"And now, time to bring back Diamond Tiara..."

*****
Diamond Tiara was beginning to really like being with Princess Luna, whose sanity had almost fully returned now just by being with her. Luna was not only interested in everything that Diamond had to say, but she was a great kisser and sexy too. Diamond realized that she liked mares sexually as much as she liked stallions. And suddenly there was a pop and she was back on Equestria in front of the Princess and a large crowd of ponies. "I don't say this often but...I made a mistake, you were framed and now you are free and your framer, Sweetie Belle, had her horn sawn off. How can I make amends for your time on the moon, what can I do to make amends?" the Princess asked her.

"Luna, please bring Lunia back," Diamond Tiara replied.
