Live or Die

Bully stared at the hero's as they all stared at her in mixed shock and anger. Bully smirked, Blood Bones glared.

"Ya know your pretty cute for a feather for brain's." Bully said as she walked around Blood Bones and hit his flank with her tail. Blood Bones looked shocked and then growled. Sweet Dreams rolled her eye's in annoyance.

"Quit the chit-chat why did you kill innocent ponies?" French Press said anger filling her tone. Bully started giggling until it erupted into a crazed laugh.

"To get revenge of course!" Bully shrieked her voice jumping an octave as she stopped laughing. Blood Bones blinked,

"Revenge!? Revenge for what!?" Blood Bones screamed as he got closer to reaching the end of his tether. Bully's left eye twitched,

"I wanted revenge for what you did to me. After being talked down from twiddle dumb and twiddle dumber! I couldn't show my face at school, everypony though I was a looser! I went to Mrs.Pamper and she laughed in my face saying that "I deserve to suffer for treating Timidthy so badly!" I wrote my parents and they didn't care! After that I was a laughingstock! But one day when I was about to give up I realized something. I realized that since you all ruined my life and reputation. That I would take away something even more valuable your lives." Bully finished her rant as her pupils we're pin pricks. Timidthy very cautiously walked over to her.

"Li-Listen Bully I u-understand what it's like. But ki-killing ponies isn't the--" Timidthy said before Bully pinned him to the wall. And screamed.

"How could YOU know how I feel! You're a prince, you live in a fancy castle! Your mother and aunt are princesses! So I ask again...how could you know how I feel!?" Sweet Dreams and Celestia took a step closer ready to intervene when the time was right. Timidthy teared up as his body blushed red,

"Yo-You honestly think my life is perfect......I-I get bullied constantly. Even since you and Bumper I've never had a moment's peace. I hear ponies calling me a baby and other colts mocking me for being beat by a filly. You don't know the half of it. I wake up with nightmares every night. I worry about what I do and say constantly. Heck! I almost lost my life when I was in diapers by a mad mare who wanted me dead. Since I was made I've been the target of ridicule and pain. So don't come here telling on how you got teased once and your world is falling apart! My confidence and my life has been shattered more times than I can count! So suck your flank cause I've had in worse than anypony." said Timidthy as tears fell from his eye's. Bully's eye's softened for a moment before she growled and drop Timidthy. Bully muttered curses as she regained her evil, twisted composure. Sweet Dreams ran over and hugged Timidthy tightly. Blood Bones got up in Bully's face,

"Listen Bully I'm not nice like my brother so how about I get a saw. And cut your head off because that's the only way I'll forgive you." Blood Bones said as his voice started to sound demonic. Bully snorted,

"You'll never take me. As long as your wimpy brother says otherwise." Bully said as she glared at Timidthy. Timidthy looked away, Celestia and Luna looked at each other,

"Bully your crimes we're unforgivable so as ruler of Equestria I sentence you to death." Celestia said her voice as cold as an arctic wind. Timidthy looked over to Bully who had genuine tears in her eye's. Timidthy sighed,

"Mother ca-can't we do something different. Please?" Timidthy whispered but Luna and Celestia shook their head's. The other's had triumphant smiles on their faces. Bully tried running away but Bumper's magic encased her. And they all teleported back to the castle for the execution.

Three day's had passed.....

Timidthy was by the decapitation device as him and his friend's looked at the crowd. Timidthy felt like bursting into tears. While the other's had either serious or small smirks on their faces. Celestia stood letting her magic keep the blade from falling. While Luna brought out tomatoes for the crowd to throw. Timidthy teleported to the castle dungeons and saw a mal-nourished filly in one of the cages.

It was Bully.

Bully's eye's we're red from crying, she looked at Timidthy.

"Yo-You can't let them do this!" Bully cried. Timidthy winced,

"I can't do anything! I wish it could be something different but I've tried everything! Everypony thinks you're a monster and a traitor and that you deserve to die! I want to help, I wish I could but I can't! What am I gonna do? Tell the entire crowd of ponies that you don't deserve this.....when you did it to lot's of other ponies! I-I'm sorry Bessie but there's nothing I can do!" Timidthy said as tears fell from his eye's and he broke down. And Bully started crying as well, the two we're interrupted when a bell went off. Two guard's walked in by the name's of Shimmer Sword and Watch Dog. And opened Bully's cell, Timidthy watched as they put hoofcups on Bully and dragged her away. Timidthy wiped the tears from his eye's and walked back to his place at Bully's execution. Bully was pelted with tomatoes as the crowd shouted names at her. Watch Dog quieted the crowd down and let Luna speak.

"Bessie Rosetta Bully. You are here to be executed. For the crimes of:

Kidnapping

Mental torture

Physical torture

Imprisoning ponies

Killing ponies

And treason.

Do you have any last word's?" Luna said her voice filled with anger. Bully gulped,

"I-I'm sorry." Bully said. Timidthy bit his lip as the crowd booed some more and threw more tomatoes. Shimmer Sword shoved Bully's head into the device and locked it. Blood Bones ran over and Celestia handed him the rope. Bully closed her eye's and sobbed, while Timidthy ducked his head to hide his tears. The other's (crowd included) glared at Bully. Celestia then nodded and Blood Bones let the blade drop. And in that crucial second. A blinding flash happened and by the time it dimmed. Everypony had enough time to see Bully's head as it tumbled to the ground and Luna grabbed it with her magic. But Celestia gasped when she saw Blood Bones's flank. A cutiemark of a pony wearing one of those execution masks was on it. Blood Bones smiled,

"Cool your meant to be an executioner!" Bumper said. Timidthy managed a smile for his brother as the crowd cheered.

Later that night a party was held for Blood Bones in celebration of him getting his cutiemark. But Timidthy had to slip out for a moment and he teleported himself to the Canterlot dungeons. Once Timidthy got their he looked around and lit his horn, he knocked his hoof on the ground three times. And Bully appeared around the corner, Timidthy smiled, looked around and hugged Bully. Bully smiled,

"Thanks Tim for saving me. But did you really have to wait until the blinding flash to do the switch?" Bully asked. Timidthy giggled,

"No but even I had to admit you did deserve something." Timidthy said sheepishly. Bully blushed and smirked,

"Okay point taken. But how'd you do it? Did you know Blood Bones was gonna get his mark?" Bully asked. Timidthy blushed redder,

"No I just calculated what the right time would be to switch you and the doll by how fast the metel blade was going." Timidthy said. Bully smiled,

"Listen Timid, when I was being humiliated earlier today I felt something in my mind click. And when I got down here well......" Bully them finished her sentence by showing Timidthy her flank that was now blank. Timidthy looked stunned but relaxed,

"I knew that mark wasn't gonna stick." Timidthy said. Bully blushed and let Timidthy incase her in magic.

"Ready? This is permanent so I want you to be sure." Timidthy said uncertainty lingering in her voice. Bully smiled warmly,

"Yes I'm ready. I want to live a normal life here in Canterlot." Bully said. And Timidthy lit his horn, Bully's body began to glow as her coat turned a blinding bright purple. And her eye's changed into a graceful shape with big eyelashes. And they started changing into crystal pony eyes. Her freckles remained but they turned a light shade of pink and spread onto her muzzle. Her hair turned a pure light blue with steaks of honeydew yellow. Bully felt a huge pain in her forehead as a horn sprouted from it. Finally she felt a tingly sensation in her throat and finally the dandelion yellow aurora disappeared and her hooves softly hit the ground. Bully gave a impressed smile over to the exhausted colt. Timidthy smiled,

"I learned the spell from mother along with giving horns and wing's to ponies as well as taking them away. I also changed your voice. Sorry if you wanted to keep it but nopony can recognize you, or else they will kill you and they'll hate me." Timidthy said blushing slightly as he said the last sentence. Bully nodded,

"Apologize not needed but accepted. Thank you Timidthy I owe you my life." Bully said as her voice had jumped three octaves and had a british accent from Timidthy's spell. Timidthy shook his head,

"No you don't. But we're also going to have to change your name." Timidthy said. Bully's ears went back but knew she couldn't go by her own name. She sighed and said,

"How about Angel?" Bully said. Timidthy snickered, Bully blushed.

"I get it I was a jerk and a psychopath. Let's see if you can come up with anything better?" Bully said. Timidthy blushed slightly but spoke,

"How about...... Prado Angélico?" Timidthy said. Bully blushed red,

"Angelic Meadow? How'd you come up with that? And when did you learn spanish?" Bully questioned. Timidthy blushed and looked away,

"It just came at the top of my head and I had to read a physiology book in spanish once. So.....I picked up on it." Timidthy said shyly, Bully smiled.

"Well I like it and thanks again I can't wait to be a normal filly." Bully said with relief in her tone. Timidthy smiled and hugged Bully,

"Well I thought you would Angélico." Timidthy said sweetly as he and the now Angelic Meadow got up and took the long way back to the castle.
