A Close Capture

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I remember the time when I was almost jailed. It happened like this:

I was creeping along the sidewalks, my hoofsteps soft and my wings silhouetted against the moonlight. I kept my ears pricked and my eyes wide. One mistake or one miss of movement and I could be behind bars before you could say "Thief,thug,spy, and outcast". The chatter of guards disturbed me from my stalking pose. I stood upright in fear. Not a bush was around. I was about to make a swoop for my home, but it was too late.

"YOU THERE!"

I was startled out of my life as a guard knocked me onto my side and pinned me to the ground. "Get the buck off me you bucker!" I screeched as I wriggled below him.

"What makes you think you can come back into Equestria?"

"Your fault to realize your about to get trolled." I said.

He gave me a curious look. I kicked him in the member and flew away while he was stunned and crying.

A Pegasus guard was at my tail, swooping over and under me, knocking me from one side to the other. I felt I was flying faster than RD when she was alive. I felt tears welling up but fought against them. I was an outcast and proud to be one. I put in my wings and dived down. We were directly over Spikeway Pit, a canyon filled with rocky spikes that could hurt you badly. He did the same, but I put my wings out and he didn't. His eyes gained a scared look as he realized he was plummeting into Pain. I saluted him with a sneer and pelted away. I spent the rest of the night on a new phoenix feather and moonrock sword.

It was a exciting yet scary thievery, even though I didn't steal anything.
