"And what're we gonna write her?!" Rainbow screamed to everyone in the Golden Oak library.

"I don't know. She said that we need to send reports every week, but even I'm not sure what are we going to write in them," Twilight replied, while rubbing the scroll and a quill.

"Well, definitely not everything we will do in the future," Rarity put her word in their dispute.

"Hey, aren't our words would get to Celestia no matter what? Aren't there someone... I don't know, someone like spies?" Spike said.

"There is no one, believe me. The guards, that would be looking after us, will arrive this evening. S.M.I.L.E. agents... Well, Celestia said, that we are not their level so there will be none of them," Twilight answered his question.

"What?! Not their level?! I'll show them, 'not our level'." Rainbow growled in anger, while taking out her gun.

"Rainbow, keep calm. This is not going to help our occasion," Twilight calmed Rainbow and was successful in it.

Luna's words back than have its effect on Celestia. The cause of Twilight and her friends have been overlooked and instead of their punishment, they will be looked after by the royal guards.

From now on, they are not wanted criminals in the whole Equestria, but the bloodhounds of the crown, instead. That means, if Celestia wanted them in the certain flashpoint, they are going to be in that flashpoint, and also they will do whatever Celestia says them to do.

If any mistake were made, then their state will be changed to the one they had before. So, basically, they were left to not that much of a choice.

So, now our heroes were just a simple citizens, that were going on the occasional adventures, when Celestia needed it. No more drug dealing, no smuggling or robbing.

"So, guys, have you already find a job, since there is no way you would return to whatever you was doing before?" Twilight asked her friends.

"Yeah, Ah will be doin' mah chores on the farm. Big Mac was good at keepin' the farm at work, while Ah was doin'... Illegal stuff," Applejack said.

"Oh! Oh! I will work as fellow baker in the Sugar Cube Corner. They wasn't allowing me to bake but, 'coz I had some stuff I may add up into the baking, but now since I have my goods confiscated, I believe they'll allow me to be more than just a waiter," She said in her cheery attitude. After sometime, she added, "Oh, wait! Fluttershy, you were saying something about being a veterinary?"

"Veterinary? Aren't we have Fauna already?" Applejack noticed.

"Oh, I've been helping her before. I believe, that she'll find me a place where I could be working... Legally," Fluttershy replied.

"Well, darling, I'm going to run the boutique, I believe," Rarity said. "When I was making the deals and performing... Certain outlawed actions, I had no time to sew. I believe that now, I'm going to make outfits and, who knows, may be become a famous in the high classes."

"Oh, and you, Rainbow?" Twilight said.

"Me?.. Uh, I'll just stick to the weather team, I believe," she answered.

"Weather team? " Twilight asked again. After a confirming nod, she said, "Oh, fine."

She opened the scroll with her magic, and put the quill on its white surface; An inkwell not that far away from her. Yet, she growled as nothing come to her mind. "Spike, bring more scrolls. I believe, that I'll spend quite a lot of them. Also, after that, I'll give you some money to you and you'll buy some more quills and ink... Hmm, girls, where Spike may buy some quills and ink?"

"There is a shop "Quills and Sofas", down the Dale's street. I can go with Spike and show him," Rainbow replied.

"Oh, it would nice of you. Spike, have you heard that!" Twilight screamed to Spike, after thanking Rainbow.

"Yes, Twi," Spike shouted in reply. After some time, Spike came running to Twilight with a bunch of scrolls. After receiving scrolls, Twilight opened the dimensional pocket and make some bits to fall into Spike's hands. When he had fifteen of them, the pocket have been closed. "Okay, Twi, we will come as soon as possible."

When they were gone, Twilight started to write something, but the scroll becomes a lump of paper after some minutes.

Half an hour have passed. When Spike and Rainbow have entered the library, they saw Twilight with a worn out quill and inkwell, that is close to be empty. Around her, was rumpled lumps, that some time ago were clear scrolls.

"Some quills and ink for purple unicorn, named Twilight Sparkle," Rainbow shouted. Twilight take bottles with ink and quills. "Good, now sing up here and here."

"Where? On your face? Fine, let me take my indelible inks," she replied.

"What? No, my pretty face would be more useful if it wouldn't be spoiled with your signature!" She protested.

"Hmm, fine. So, guys. I believe that you can go. I'll come to something eventually," Twilight said. When everyone were ready to go, she remembered something, "hey, girls. Before you go, I have to say something to you."

She opened her pocket and a pile of golden tickets have fallen from it. "Here, it's tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala," Twilight said, but all her friends only scrutinized at them. "Yeah, I know that we're not the one to be in there, but Celestia really wants us on the event."

"And what are we supposed to do in there?" Rainbow asked.

"I'm not sure," Twilight replied. "But the fact is the fact. Here is seven tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala, and seven of us. Celestia herself wants us to be present on the event."

"Okay, Twi," Rainbow said. Then a certain idea hit her, "Hmm, guys! What do you think about the living up the whole thing."

"Living up? That boring event of stuck-up nobles? This is definitely not the best idea," Rarity replied.

"Yeah, if we try then..." Twilight tried to agree, but the realization come into her head. "Huh, you know, this is definitely not the worst idea. If we show an unfitting behavior on the Gala, then nobles would be highly against us on the event. That means, that Celestia will have troubles in inviting us on the next events."

"Wow, that's quite... Interesting thought," Rarity said. "I believe, that plan would work. I just... That trick may worsen up my reputation..."

"Don't worry, Rarity. Young nobles are not fond of the Gala, like us. Also, there isn't much of the vindictive ponies," Twilight said in reassurance.

"Well, okay Twilight. We will go then," Rainbow said, and exited the library. The others followed her and soon the library was empty, except for Twilight and Spike.

"Hey, Twi. Can I... Look, if Rarity needs my help with anything? It's just, that I don't see if I can help you in any way. This is definitely not because I adore her at work." Spike said.

"Hah... Of course you can," she chuckled before replying.

"Thank you, Twi," he said, and exited the library too. After that, Twilight heard Spike's shouting, "Rarity, wait. Do you have anything, that I can help you with..."

"Cannot we just kill them, somehow," Luna said.

"How?" Celestia replied. "If you think, that you will be able to do something about them, then you're allowed to do so. Just remember, that they are not fools, and they'll eventually find how to fight your illusions."

"Huh? If that's true, and we couldn't fight against those outlaws, than you can, sister," Luna said.

"And what are you suggesting? You wish me to burn down the whole forest with everyone in there? I can, sister. One spell, and this forest will turn into a barren wastelands," Celestia scolded. After some time, she continued, "And, don't forget that I actually have tried to cleanse this forest."

"You tried, or rather your guards tried. You know, I read the guard's reports of the last months. Every time, I found something related to 'Three Circles' and Whitetail forest, It's always says that some guards were lost in there. When I was reading those reports, I was feeling as if you send those guards on slaughtering," Luna exposed.

"It's not me. It's captain Lost Word. Shining Armor already kicked him out of his guard's position," Celestia replied, taking the blame away from her.

That moment, a scroll appeared before Celestia. "What's that?" Luna asked.

"That's..." Celestia looked at the scroll. "Oh, that's from your 'dear savior'. A report, she must be sending every week... Though, I admit, I would like to never recieve those at all. Criminals are all the same and that had never changed and never will. And, Twilight with her abilities and her possibilities... Sister, you know, I wouldn't mind if you send one of your guards to her at night."

"Read, already," Luna said, while rolling her eyes.

Luna saw, that Celestia was reading the report quite precisely. She saw, how Celestia's eyes were widening as her gaze goes up and down. Her expression turned to wrathful one. She throw away the scroll.

"What is in there?" Luna asked.

"You may read for yourself," Celestia muttered.

Luna picked up a scroll, and started to read.

Dear, princess Celestia.

Today, I found that it's a great blessing, to be able to share something with your friends. But sometimes, you have more friends, then things you could share with.

Your former student, Twilight Sparkle.

"Huh," Luna huffed. "Maybe... It's a mistake."

"No, my dear sister. This unicorn was my student, and I have some of her notes. Her magic-writing didn't change a bit. Also, the spell, she used, was given to her by me, though I said her to use an enchantment, I've done to her dragon." Celestia replied.

Celestia raised from her seat, and goes for the door. "Huh? Sister, where are you going?" Luna asked.

"Something tells me, that those guards that's going into Ponyville's department, this evening will arrive to their destination a bit faster, then they're supposed to." Celestia replied.

After some time, they were at Canterlot's train station. Fifteen guards standing before her. When, captain made sure that all of his subordinates fall into the rank, all of them disappeared in flash of teleportation spell.

Spike was dusting the shelves, when he heard knocks on the door. When he opened the door, he saw princesses and fifteen guards, behind them.

"Um, what can I do for you, princesses," he said.

"Where is Twilight?" Celestia asked.

"Twilight?.. Um, she left like an hour... Oh, here she is," He answered, while pointing in the distance. When Celestia look there, she saw Twilight walking to them. When Twilight got closer, Celesta saw that on her arm was something like a bracelet.

"Good evening, princess Celestia. You wanted something?" She said, when she got close enough. Celestia saw that Twilight's bracelet, wasn't a bracelet in any way, but instead, it was snake, that roped itself around Twilight's wrist.

"What is it?" Celestia asked, pointing at snake.

"Oh, that's? That's Venom, my new familiar," Twilight replied.

"New familiar? And, where is an old one?" Celestia continued with her questions.

"Dusk? He is... Somewhere. I can call him, if you want," Twilight replied.

"No, this is not needed. I just wanted to ask you about this!" Celestia said, showing Twilight a scroll, she had sent her.

"And, what's about it?" She said, as if not knowing an issue.

"What you can say about its content?" Celestia started to push.

"Content?.. A content, like content. Nothing extraordinary, as far as I can see," Twilight replied.

"Nothing extraordinary?.. Argh, Twilight! Don't even try to fool me around. This is not..." She started to scold Twilight, but was interrupted.

"Not what you wanted from me? Then please, can you tell me, what you desire from me more specifically. I may write a total bawdry, and say that this is a report of what happened," Twilight said.

Look on Celestia changed to one, that is able if not to kill, then to burn everything then got under this gaze. Twilight thought for a moment, that such an answer was unnecessary.

"... Just make sure, that you'll send anything every week," she grumbled, and turned away. "Luna! We are over here. Captain Solar Lance! You, and your subordinates expected to look over the village, and especially several mares and a dragon. Proceed to your tasks!"

"Yes, ma-am!" The captain saluted Celestia as she teleported herself and her sister to Canterlot, then he turned to his subordinates. "Those of you, who are not bounded to this mare, must proceed to the local garrison and find the place, where your mares are living," He shouted, and ten of them goes in the random direction. A majority of them started to ask where to go, and one, who prepared the most, showed right direction. A captain, in the same time, returned to those, who were left. "Bright Mind, Blazing Spear, Broadsword and Grim Glance, you need to create a schedule of watching. Now, milady, would you like us to look over you?"

"Huh... Y-yeah, I believe, there is no other option, Captain," Twilight replied. "You and your subordinates may enter, I believe."

"Thank you, milady," Solar said, and entered the library.

"I don't like thhhhhose guards, missssstresssss,"a voice hissed in Twilight voice.

"I don't like it either, Venom. But I don't have much of a choice," she sighed. "Now, who wants to learn some spells."

"Yesssss, missssstresssss," The voice hissed in reply.
