There he was, sitting in a chair staring at the neatly polished table. He was exhausted and honestly wished he was in bed right now, but with recent events he wasn't able to go home, nor did he want to.

"Well, what happened?" The guard asked in a stern yet understanding tone.

He looked at the guard for a moment, everything for last few days come back to memory and attack his mind again. "You want a short or long answer?" Was his reply, in a groggily tone.

"Which ever helps with the current situation."

"Longer explains more but isn't directly connected to this case."

"Let's go with the longer; if anything we can use it for motives."

"The longer makes the motive clear just it happened two days ago." He takes a breath as the guard prepares to take notes. "So two days ago, I was taking a casual stroll around town. Nothing new, shops shouting about the new local deals and to get customers. What I did see out of the ordinary was a grown stallion who looked like he was drunk or high and hasn't slept on a comfortable surface for a few days was talking kind of harshly, as it appeared to Scootaloo who was with her friends, Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. All three looked frightened, and as I got closer I heard him say, 'You are coming with me right now!' Knowing that he was a stranger and picking on three fillies something was clearly up. I walked over calmly and asked what was going on, the fillies too scared to comment with the stallion present. The stallion told me that it wasn't my business. I told him I was making it my business since the three fillies were friends of mine and I wasn't going to let a stallion pick on them. He told me that he was the biological father of Scootaloo and that he was taking her home. I told him that he needed evidence to have such a claim and that he needed a place of residence that would pass a inspection along with the proper income to be able to care for her. He said he did, I didn't buy his words so I asked him to show me the papers that prove he is biologically her father. That's when he turned and attacked me. At that point I smelled the alcohol in his breath since I was more level with him. After a short while he stopped and told me to watch my back for he was coming. Last night was when he saw his opportunity to make his move against me."

Author's Note

Well I'm new here to this wonderful site though story writing hasn't been new. This is just the first I'm allowing all you boys and girls read. The reason I chose Lyra over all the other characters was because the fact she isn't involved in many stories as a main character. I also may have other characters that weren't tagged in this because of the limit which should be a little higher than 5. Art will be coming soon, once I have free time this weekend to generate one.
