Chapter 1

Twilight was walking through her castle as it was morning time, she had just finished breakfast and she was going to wait around until the map called her or her friends to go solve a problem somewhere in Equestria, she hoped that it wasn't immediately as she had just woken up a few minutes ago.

While she was walking through the hallway Spike entered the hall on the other side and walked up to her, Twilight was glad to see that her assistant was awake so she could see what she needed to do.

"Twilight we got a package but the sender didn't put a address on it that says where it's from it just has the the address of this place written on it and that's why it was sent here, I asked Derpy about why it's like this and she just shrugged and she said that she had nothing to do with why the package was like this." Spike said as he ran up to her he stopped and handed her he package.

Twilight took the package and checked the outside, she saw that it had a stamp and that it had her address on it and the location of Manehattan but no particular address, it was suspicious as mail requires the specific location of where it's from so she had no idea how it was delivered by Derpy anyway.

"This is a strange package as it doesn't have the location of where it's from, it's illegal to send mail like that. What I don't understand is that derpy delivered it to me instead of taking it back to the post office to be examined since it's breaking the legal standards of mail." Twilight explained.

"Okay...so report it then. That's what your supposed to do with mail that breaks the rules." Spike exclaimed but Twilight didn't listen to him as she needed to see what it was.

Twilight opened it up and started to cough violently, Spike backed up and he started to cough as well while Twilight coughed repeatedly, she couldn't stop coughing she tried to stand up but she became weak. She started to trot away from it quickly.

"Spike it's some sort of poison, quarantine the castle and report it!" Twilight ordered, Spike ran outside while he coughed and sent out a report to Celestia. Guards stationed at Ponyville surrounded the castle. Twilight exited thought the doors and collapsed while she gasped for air.

Twilight was helped to her hooves and was carried to the local hospital, Celestia got the report from an advisor who had received the mail in her mail room, while she was in a meeting with her advisors. She looked around as they were in deep discussion about upcoming events.

"Not right now okay I have meeting that..." Celestia started to say but the advisor cut her off as he set the report down and spoke to her.

"There's been an incident at Princess's Twilight's place, last thing I heard it was some sort of harmful mail that caused a security breach but that's all I know, Twilight has already ordered a quarantine." The guard said, Celestia looked around at her advisors and spoke.

"I have to cancel the meeting, there is an emergency...um we can finish this talk tomorrow." Celestia stated, her advisors left her room and she went to get an update on what was happening. She arrived at Twilight's castle and could see Spike being loaded onto a stretcher outside while doctors were already taking her blood pressure, Celestia shoved past the other ponies.

"What happened over here? A security breach? Where's Twilight? Can somepony tell me something?" Celestia complained. One of the local guards stationed in Equestria walked up to her. Spike was soon carried to the hopital after his lungs were cleared out

"Spike said it was some sort of gas that entered by mail, we can't go in because we can be exposed to it." The guard said.

"Gas? What type? Get a breathing apparatus and test the area I'm going over to see Spike and Twilight. Also please evacuate the area after the news ponies get the reports of what's happening, the only ponies that can be here are guards and two news ponies other than that this place needs to get cleared immediately." Celestia said

"Yes your highness." The guard said, they told the citizens to clear out of the area and they tested the atmosphere, it was reported to be Sarin, the most deadliest gas in Equestria, Celestia ordered an investigation into the incident and told the doctors that were treating twilight that it was sarin gas so they administered the antidote to her. They also administered the antidote to Spike. They were lucky that the doctors had given Spike and Twilight antidotes under ten minutes or they would have been dead. Twilight and Spike were very lucky.

It was declared that Twilight was stable so Celestia went to visit her, Twilight could only speak for a little bit so Celestia told her that she hoped that she could recover, she couldn't tell Twilight who did it as she had no idea but she did tell her what type of gas it was. Celestia asked her when she first felt the affects of the gas.

"Celestia I was checking my schedule and then I just collapsed, I had no idea somepony would try to harm me or Spike, I don't care what you have to do but please find the terrible pony that did this to me." Twilight wheezed, Celestia promised that that she would.

While Twilight was in the hospital Celestia ordered an investigation into the gas attack as she was determined to find out whoever did this and arrest them, Twilight was visited by her friends at the hospital and over the coarse of a week Twilight recovered. Twilight's castle received extra security as Celestia sent over fifty guards to guard Twilight in her castle, they also checked mail that came to the castle. Twilight heard about the investigation and she said that once she got out of the hospital she was going to help find out who sent her the package

They reported everything about what was happening but then for the rest of the week there were no new updates on the incident, Celestia told Equestria that the media will update ponies when the Royal guard and investigators find out anything in the investigation into the attack. They hoped that another attack won't happen again as they prepared to find out who would do such a thing.

Chapter 2

A few days after the gas attack Celestia was at her table meeting with Equestria Defense advisors as she was trying to form a group who could investigate the gas attack, they all came to an agreement to form a group to investigate the incident. Celestia formed an investigation panel and asked ponies to join the the investigation.

The investigation panel began their investigation soon after ponies joined as they went around and asked workers at the post office from where the mail was sent from and why they didn't check it, that was when they found a huge problem which was that the post office never checked ponies mail.

Celestia found this out so she created a bill and passed it without any opposition which stated that all mail all over Equestria must be checked when ever it passes through the post office, their was some controversy but a lot of ponies knew that invasion of privacy was better than being killed.

Celestia then told the post office that it didn't have the address of the sender on it and she said that it shouldn't have been approved to go through since it didn't have the senders address on it. The post office looked at the letter and stated that they made a dire mistake in letting it go through.

A few days after this revelation the post office fired the officials who let the mail go through and hired ponies that would be better at making sure to check mail, meanwhile as Equestrian officials changed the policies of post offices all over Equestria due to Celestia's bill the investigation into who sent the mail to Twilight continued.

The only problem was that Celestia and Equestrian officials had no idea on who sent the mail, they asked the post office who received the mail but they had no idea because the address didn't have the sender's address. This baffled the public and they feared that the pony who did this would get away with the attempted assassination.

So the investigators were led to Appleloosa so they raided the post office which was a controversal move but Celestia didn't care, they arrested every pony in the post office and looked through every record that was in the post office to look for the culprit that did this to Twilight.

They soon found a lead into the ponies that dud this and they found the address if this family that sent the letter to Twilight, Celestia ordered a raid on the couples house and they arrested the couple.

They couple was put on trial in the highest court of the land in Canterlot, they were declared guilty of trying to assassinate Twilight while using biological weapons and they were declared guilty of being in possession of a weapon of mass destruction and they were hanged, the couple was hanged in front of a huge audience and Twilight was given the honor in watching the hanging from a throne.

Justice had finally been served as the ponies who had tried to kill Twilight were now dead. Twilight's book that explained the ordeal that she went through became a national bestseller as everypony in Equestria talked about it while a lot of ponies bought the book. Twilight got therapy for her mental scars that she had gotten from the attack on her life and she improved from the attack over time which her family celebrated that fact with her, ponies showered her with sympathy and love which she appreciated so much. Banquets were held in her honor and the incident was taught in schools so that future generations could know about the attack on the princess.

Equestria was happy that the incident that had happened to Twilight was over, they were happy that Twilight didn't die and they were happy that Twilight had recovered from the attack as well and ponies in Equestria hoped that what happened to Twillight would never happen again to her or her friends or her family or anypony else ever again. The incident that had happened to Twilight was remembered each year as ponies reflected on what had happened to Twilight and what had caused her to almost die.ey would never forget what happened to Twilight so that the incident could never happen again to somepony else that was a high profile official that had powerful positions in the momarchy of Equestria.

A tribute to Twilight was made which depicted her coming out of the incident as a very strong and determined pony, Twilight loved the statue and thanked the officials who dedicated it to her, Celestia passed legislation that banned chemicals, Equestria made sure to lock up all of the chemicals they had so that nopony could get to them and use them for evil crimes against ponies.

They also started to monitor ponies a lot more, a Celestia started a surveillance program that had ponies watch the citizens of Equestria every day to make sure they never committed any crimes, this was proved very effective as they arrested ponies in ten seconds after they had commited crimes, sure they had to investigate some crimes that happened under unknown circumstances but other than that the program worked micracles and instances of crime dropped as it became impossible to commit a crime due to ponies monitoring the citizens of Equestria.

Crime still happened but it only happened once in a while as it was very hard to commit a crime when ponies who wanted to commit crimes couldn't, they put criminals on watchlists as well so that if a criminal commits another crime like they have done before they can be linked to the crime in a matter of seconds.

Twilight was happy that crime had been beaten in Equestria but she was upset that it had to happen after something had happened to her but she knew that at least she came away alive and she knew that at least Equestria was a bit safer by it.
