My Little Kaiju: Ponies Are Weird

Garble walked down the stairs to the dungeon, fire sparking from his nostrils and charring the walls. While he called ponies "namby-pamby", he did respect their might as an empire and going to war with an empire that had several physical gods was not on his to do list. Scarring some ponies mentally, even if they had done the same to a dragon, was not going to fly well. Garble sighed in disappointment at the fact that these ponies would get off with little more than a stern warning. Well, that wasn't entirely true since their court would consist of both dragons and ponies and it was possible for them to receive their deserved punishment. He doubted it though as the dragon council consisted of toothless and senile worms masquerading as wise elders.

"Get out of your cell. We're going to court" Garble said gruffly as he led the two ponies out of the dungeon. The pegasus kept on blathering homophobic slurs every second while the unicorn seemed downcast. Good, she should feel that way for disfiguring a dragon.

"Knifehead is a queer cream puff" the pegasus growled under his breath with fury. Garble whipped around, having had enough of the vulgarity dripping from the prisoner's mouth.

"Shut the Hell up!" Garble yelled, not noticing the irony in his word choice. Otachi, or as she now had to call herself, Acid Spray snorted arrogantly at the dragon's rage. Garble's look of hatred quickly silenced the unicorn's snort. "God, why couldn't Basil or Emerald take this job" Garble muttered, flames starting to burst from his nostrils again. "Just be quiet so I can get this crap over with" Garble moaned, feeling the beginning of a head ache coming on. What he wouldn't give for some really strong sulfur deposits right now. Leatherback eventually ran out of slurs to use and simply sulked while Garble led them to the court room. He refused to use the name "Electro Wing" or act as a pony. Otachi walked up to his side and nuzzled him lightly in an attempt to reassure her furious lover. Leatherback calmed down slightly as the two prisoners were put into a massive court room. On one side, stood several wizened dragons with scars betraying their old age. On the other, a pure white mare with a flowing mane looked out solemnly. The silence was broken instantly.

"Quare iris equa? Potest hic loco adepto ullus magis homosexualis?" Leatherback yelled angrily, causing the court to gasp in shock at the breach in conduct. They didn't know what he was saying thankfully so Otachi was able to quiet Leatherback before he could continue. Cutting Edge sighed from his position in the stands as Celestia and Ladon called the meeting to order. Otachi had a decent chance of getting pardoned but Leatherback was a brute with no sense of tact who would get himself punished.

"We begin this court for the assault of Shenron, now" Ladon called out before extending his aged and torn wings and flying back to his seat.

"You may begin with the prosecution Garble as the closest relative of Shenron" Celestia said, staying in the judge's chair because when a pony was a defendant, Celestia was no longer part of the jury.

"My clutch brother may not have been related to me by blood, but we were raised together and might as well have been" Garble growled, giving Otachi a hateful look. Cutting Edge mentally put Otachi back at the top of his "to be killed" list. He had forgotten that she had assaulted a dragon. The last time that had happened ended in the pony being killed in such a way that even a kaiju would be revolted by. Then again, that was hundreds of years ago. Maybe the dragons mellowed out? "The unicorn, Acid Spray, disfigured and assaulted my brother unprovoked with a banned acid attack. Even her cutie mark reflects this talent." Garble said, hate dripping off his words in such quantity that it was probably thick enough to drink. "My brother is here today to show what she did" Garble hissed furiously before opening the door to the room. A hooded green dragon stepped into the room, keeping it's face covered.

"She did this" he rasped before tossing off the hood. The crowd gasped as they looked at his horribly scarred visage. Only the eye was alive and unwinking in the dead half of the dragon's face, the rest was scabrous scaleless flesh, with the side of the mouth twisted downward into a painful frown.  Greenish gums and yellowed teeth hung out of the frozen jaw, and the skin beneath showed a mottled black and purple, hanging in folds, loose and lifeless. He resembled a bleached fish in many respects to put it mildly. The ponies continued gawking in abject horror while the dragons began screaming with fury and attempting to break through the small barrier protecting Otachi.

"Krii! Krii! Krii!" they roared in the ancient dragon tongue for death. A blast of magic from Celestia held the dragons back and made then return to order. Celestia sighed before letting Garble continue.

"As an accomplice to her crime, the pegasus "Electro Wing" will also share her punishment." Garble stated, smirking at the two prisoners while he did. Cutting Edge knew perfectly well now that Otachi and Leatherback were going to get lynched unless he did something.

"I invoke the right of the citizen" Cutting called out to a stunned crowd. It was a once in a life time thing that was used to soften punishment in exchange for befriending the victim. The dragons snarled angrily and the ponies neighed in shock. Garble gave Cutting a vicious glare while Ladon and Celestia discussed on the subject.

"Prisoners, you have two options. Go free or befriend Garble and his brother" Ladon stated in a tone that said quite clearly what would happen if they were let "free". Garble sputtered in anger before going over to his brother and skulking out of the room. Otachi saw the angry mob outside and quickly made up her mind.

"We choose to befriend Garble and his brother" she shouted, shutting up Leatherback with her hoof.

"Very well. You'll move to a middle ground, the Mountain, and live there with Garble and his brother. Your other charges are acquitted." Ladon ruled before letting out a screech that signified the end of court. As Garble walked out he shoved Leatherback.

"What the Hell?" Leatherback snarled at the dragon. Garble turned so the two were practically kissing.

"We...Are....Not....Friends!" Garble roared at Leatherback.
