The final destiny of cowboy pony.

Midnight Starfall maneuvers her eyes balls to the West and she announces "Has come the time now for me to fulfill my destination as a cowboy pony." And then she walks until the grass becomes dusty and the hills swarms with coyotes and the towns are like old west towns with one road in the middle and saloons and stuff and she puts on her cowboy hat and her eyes spark alive like a electricity is inside of them and she shouts her final cheer of true destiny. "Yee How!"

Midnight Starfall is a unicorn and blue on her coat, like a night sky but not the stars so she kinda looks like Luna but less cool. She has her cowboy hat on while she walks. The town is there and she walks to it and walks inside it and the ponies whisper things like who is she and why is she wearing that hat? Anyway the lavender unicorn walks into the nearest salon.

"I'll will take one of every your strongest drink," she says.

"Sorry ma'am this is a salon we do not serve alcohol here," the hair stylists replies.

"Ok."

And she leaves very badass and all the ponies keep whispering more things like where did she come from and where will she go and then they get a dumb song stuck in their heads.

Midnight Starfall, aka Middy, goes into a saloon. The door swang inward suddenly as she blasts through it like a true cowgirl pony and all the patreons stare at her with their jaws wide open and disbelief that she is there. The bartender is cleaning a cup with a towel like they always do and Middy takes a badass step forward and her spurs make sound that makes everypony nervous.

"Batrender!" she shouts above the sound of silence.

"W-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-what is it?" he says clearly nervous.

"I'm here to look for... wanted outlaw!"

The crowd gasps and one jumps out a window.

"The sherirrif in town can help you there." The bartender narrows his eyes dangerously. "If you have what it takes."

"Very well," the lavender unicorn says.

Midnight Starfall thunders out the swingy doors and they creak on hinges made in a time when dust was invented before oil and blood was more common than drinking water. The bartender drops his glass.

She goes to sheriff office where the sherrif lives and does sherriff duties like jail and drinking. Outside are wanted posters with bounty prices and names and pictures and words and numbers. One stands out more.

"Libby 'Lawless' Belle, the Outlaw Lawyer. She's wanted in all county. I hear she can do any crime and defend herself in the court rooms so good that the judge can never evict her."

Suddenly a voice.

"Y'all y'got that there dern tootin' Libby is a mighty dern heckuva bounty," the sherif says. Middy glares at him with force of wind.

"I cannot be stopped."

And then the lavender unicorn walks away with the poster... the poster of the evil lawyer.

The law firm is a big mansion kind of like a drug lord maybe but it's all money made from legal crimes and other lawyer stuff not drugs. Midnight Starfall knocks to the front door and knocks on it until it falls over.

"Open up inside," she shouts into the house. But then henchpony! He has a banana to cover his face and a hat to cover the top of his face where his mane is and he has a six shooter.

"You'll never take us alive!" he says and fires all six shots at Middy's face, but her face is no longer there, it is behind cover.

"You want?" she asks and brings up her trusty dusty lusty rusty revolver. "Come on and have then!"

She fires all bullet and the outlaw falls over. "Ya got me pardner," he says drastically.

"I know."

And then Middy runs inside the house. More evil guys run around the corners and shoot her but miss. She shoots them back and gets them all with her fluent revolver skill.

"I will not lose!" she says.

But then the chair turns around and it is nobody other than Libby Belle!!! She looks mug and smiles.

"Okay boys, you can get up now," Libby says smirkfully.

"Hahaha," they all laugh. "We were pretending to be shot so we could trap you in here with our boss!" they all say at the same time. "This was our master plan all along and you fell for it like a cat in water," they all say.

Midnight boggles. She can't believe her aim is so bad?? She never practiced with her gun and this was the first time she ever fired it but she can't believe this is happening.

"I cannot believe this is happening," she says.

Libby nods. "I can."

The henchponies tie up Middy and take away her pistol but they make a fatal mistake and they let her keep her hat.

"Leave us!" Libby commands her employees and they do. "Now that we are alone tell me why you came for me."

"The bounty. 20 bits alive, 10 bits dead."

"Those fools raised the bounty again knowing i can outlawyer every judge in all of the West?!" Libby stomps a hoof and cries a little but then regains her exposure. "Okay well too late, because you lose."

Middy feels sad and has a very tender moment where she misses her family and other tragic things.

Lawless Libby finds a sheet of paper from her desk and ink on it in the shape of letters together to spell many words.

"For you see this is the contract that gives me diplomatic immunity from all laws," Libby says wordfully.

Middy nods and her hat comes loose a little bit and it gives her brain a idea. There is a thing full of ink on the desk.

"Hey outlaw, why don't you set down that there contact and we can make our final deal," the lavender unicorn says.

"Ha you think I need a deal when I can get the greatest deals any time I want?"

"I know you are very evil so I bet you would love to hear about something very interstring. I happened to be there when a royalty did something very embarrassing and I bet you can bride him for allot of moneys but first you will need to do something for me."

"I am entrigged."

"Put that corntact down and come closer because what if somepony is listening?"

Lawless Libby sets down the contrast like a careless villain and Middy smiles facefully. Lawless Libby approaches the lavender unicorn with pension in the air. "Okay, loser, tell me the secret."

"It is...................." Middy says quietly and Libby cleans closer. "Yee How!!!"

"My ear!!" Libby shreks with all her voice boxes.

Middy fails her head in circles and her hat flings across the whole entire room and knocks over the thing of ink and it spills all over the paper, completely defenestrating it.

"Noooo!" Libby says no longer Lawless because suddenly a hundred sherrffs storm the room from the windows and ceiling and floor and every orifice you can imagine.

"Freeze, lawbreaker!" all the shariffs say in unisex.

"I give up," Libby decries.

"Conglaturation, Midnight Starfall, you conquered a true evil and earned these moneys," says one sherfiff.

He gives her the 20 bits and she tips her hat.

"Y'all come back now y'hear," Middy says and everypony laughs, even Libby a little bit.

"I am just glad her reign of terror is over," says another sheirff.

"I don't think we have seen the last of her yet," says Middy ominously. "But whopony cares? Ice cream is on me!"

And then they had a ice cream party the end.
