A Downward Spiral

By Somerandombadfanfic

Chapter One

The beginning of the end

The night was dark, moonlight the only thing lighting the outskirts of Canterlot. Moving deeper it to the city street lanterns lit the streets and occasional guard patrols. The base of the castle was brightly light and there were guards at the main doors and the occasional Pegasus patrol.

“Lunadamit I thought this would be way easier” Melody said to herself

Having to think of a plan on the fly was not the easiest thing for her to do. From the number of attacks the she had read about she thought that just strolling right in was going to be a piece of cake. But the hole plane gut through itself out the window and because of the Pegasus patrols using a window would no longer going to work.

“I guess I don't need this grappling hook no more.” she said with a small little pout forming on her midnight blue face.

Levitating the hook out of her bag she dropped it next to her and it made a rather loud clang. At that she realized her mistake as the guards at the door started making their way to the noise. Looking around for a place to hide she spotted a rather large dumpster and decided that it would be that bad and getting caught would be worse. As the guards neared the area she dropped the hook the guards stopped and then one of them was rushing back to the castle. Realizing that she forgot one thing the hook she realized that there was going to be a lot of trouble in the next couple of minutes.

The guards started searching the area it wasn't long before one of the guards found her. The guard yelled for the others the with his spear aimed right at her. As fear gripped her body she could move speak or think. As the others arrived a unicorn gard quickly slipped a suppression ring on her horn.

“Get out of the trash can slowly don't try anything.” The guard that had found her said in a stone cold tone of voice the sent another shiver of fear down her spine.

But knowing that she could do anything now she complied and didn't say a word. Only taking quick glances at her captors the brown earth pony that found her. A wight unicorn that put the suppressor ring on and another earth pony that seem a lot younger than the other two. He was holding his spear like if he stopped holding it he would die. He was promptly ordered to remove her saddlebags and hold them whiles they take her to the dungeon. The cells where just like prison cells a bed and a toilet. But the door was not like a prison at all instead of bars the door was solid metal bought an inch thick and a massive locking bar on the outside.

Several hours later a guard came to retrieve melody and escort her to an interrogation room. After another couple hours of not saying anything to the interrogator and some yelling she was escorted back to her cell. Melody was hoping that maybe if she said nothing than they might think she is mute of couldn't speak equish. To her delight the next interrogation was done by two different ponies the first one tried several languages. Before leaving and the last one tryd hove sign and a quill and ink witch she just gave a confused look. The escort back to her cell was a little more ruf this time around. She decided that she could take a nap not and not be disturbed for a while.

To Melody's surprise the small nap she was hoping for was a long sleep it felt like she had slept the whole day. Sitting up she realized that some-pony had left a tray of food in her room without waking her. Melody found this odd the noise of the door opening should have woken her up. The tray of food consisted of some bread and a glass of water. The bread was slightly stale but really good for dungeon food. But this makes sense in the castle there was only the best cooks for all the ponies staying there. But she found it strange that prisoners got something this good.

Several hours later boredom quickly started to consume melody. To the point she was counting the seconds. It was ten thousand, five hundred sixty seconds after she started counting when a group of guards came to get her. Instead of taking her to the interrogation they took her to the throne room thru the windows melody could tell it was night time agen. A twinge of anxiety started to grip her as they entered the throne room. There was two great thrones and sitting in the second throne. Was the dark blue princess of the night. She released the guards and rose to stand and look at melody.

“Tho will explain to me why you were trying to get into the castle.” luna side with a stern and steady commanding look.

“I um was.” after several minutes of silence princes luna looked like she was getting angry.
“ fine don't tell me we can get it out of you some other way. Guards remove her and make sure there is a guard at her door for when she is ready to talk.” luna said with a bit of anger in her voice.

Melody could not get any sleep for the rest of the night. She was feeling stressed and a thick senses of fear was griping at her hart. Six hours later there was a knock at the cell door.

“It's b-breakfast time if you are up move to your bed and do not move.” said a young sounding stallion from the other side of the door.

“Um ok i am there and i am not moving.”melody said with a parched and sleep deprived voice.

The metal door opened without a sound and the young earth pony guard entered the cell. He set the tray of food down where it was last-time. He had made little to no sound to where if melody wasn't watching she wouldn't have know he entered at all.

“Thankyou.” said melody

“Um no problem” the guard said warily whilst looking at the suppression ring.

The smell of the food was lovely there where a few muffins and a mug of tea. Melody began to think if this is really dungeon food than she really hoped she got to stay. After the delicious breakfast the need to sleep was to much to fight and she quickly passed out.

Melody started to feel a serious case of deja vu she was slowly making her way to the castle. But she ignored this because everything was going as planned. There was a perfectly placed window to enter the castle. There were no guards anywhere in cite and the walk to the royal archives was a little to easy. Like there was no one at all…

“Well you are smarter than you look most ponies don't realize that things are going to right.” said luna with a hint of amusement in here voice.

“Um hi princess luna.” melody said with a o krap i am in deep now.

“I will give you a chance to explain why you were trying to sneak into the archives and maybe you won't rot in the dungeon.” luna said in a more get to the point now voice.
