"You have a lot to think about"

Princess Celestia said this as she walked past Twilight, closing the doors behind her. Twilight saw the look that her mentor had given her, the stone cold face that showed her disappointment in her eyes. Twilight couldn't keep herself from crying, the tears threatening to burst forth from her, and drown her in them. She in her turmoil, decided to teleport herself, she didn't care about the destination, she let her body relax as her magic took control, and when she opened her tear-ridden eyes again, she found that she was in the guest room reserved for when she was visiting Canterlot. Twilight's thoughts turned towards the event that had just occurred a few minutes ago within the throne room.

She couldn't believe that her friends didn't believe her, even Princess Celestia didn't! Twilight knew that something was weird about Cadance, she didn't act like this! She was kind, caring, and certainly didn't act mean towards other ponies. Twilight made her way across the room, heading towards the bathroom. As she gazed upon the mirror she thought about what she did wrong, and how that could have changed. Maybe if she had sure-proof of Cadance being evil, they'd believe her and do something about it! Twilight organized her thoughts while cleaning her face, and while thinking on ways to go about getting the proof, she came across a thought that certainly wasn't one she would ever do, but she was desperate for the truth to be revealed and despite what Shining told her she found herself not believing in a single one.

She focused on the thought she had, taking into considerations of the consequences this plan had should it turn out she was wrong. She could very well be punished even harsher should she be wrong, but she had never been wrong before when the possible fate of Equestria hanged in the balance. This plan of hers, she would attack Princess Cadance. Normally, she'd have used the elements of harmony to do it, they seemed capable of exposing any evil that lurked in the shadows, but she knew that wouldn't have worked because not only could she not get them, but all of her friends would refuse to wear them for the sake of validating a claim. Twilight reiterated her plan, attacking a pony with the elements is one thing, they wouldn't attack anypony that was good and surely if she exposed Cadance for her true colors, then everypony would listen to her and they'd be able to stop this wedding before something bad went wrong.

There was a small thought eating away at her while Twilight thought about all of this though, what if she was wrong and it turns out she just attacked a stressed out bride for no reason? Twilight shook away the uncomfortable thought, deciding that it was nothing more than skepticism in her abilities, this would go perfectly and then everypony would see that she indeed was correct.

Twilight hadn't made her presence known in the castle at all, hoping that it served as a distraction so that she could isolate Cadance alone. She kept having that nagging thought in her head about whether this was the correct course of action or not, and each time, she closed out the thought. She considered it briefly at one point, but knew that her plan couldn't fail, at least... it shouldn't. Twilight kept a vigilante watch, finally spotting a chance as she saw Cadance split off from everypony else. Twilight slowly made her way down the hallway with her, she would attack her as soon as she reached her room. Twilight only knew that was her destination based upon prior knowledge, and as Cadance reached the door, she looked around before walking inside, closing the door behind her.

Twilight increased her speed, gunning it towards the door, and as she reached it, she screeched to a halt. She took a deep breath, calming herself so that her heart rate could go down. She could feel her heart beat slow down momentarily, so she took the chance and knocked on the door.

"Come In"

The voice from inside spoke loudly, Twilight started to push the door open, the door creaking open as to give her a warning.
As Twilight slipped inside, she noticed Cadance's gaze upon her, it a mix between surprise and... loathing?

"Hello, Twilight. Come to apologize? Or maybe claim that I'm evil again?" The pony princess remarked as she brought up the fresh memory that had occurred mere hours ago. Twilight shook her head to the latter statement, deciding to play it cool before striking. 'This certainly is something Rainbow would've done' Twilight thought as she opened her mouth to speak.

"No, I'm not here to do that again. Look, I just wanted to apologize about earlier." She lied through her teeth, taking not as to be careful with her words, lest she get caught now. Princess Cadance's look turned from it's previous shape into total surprise, it looked like she didn't expect a thing. Twilight waited with baited breath, as Cadance walked towards her. Seconds turned into Minutes, Minutes into Hours. Everything seemed to slow down as she came into range for Twilight to think she was close enough. She wanted to surprise her, and rough her up. What she would do wouldn't have harsh effects, and were only meant to give her a scare quick enough for her true colors to show, if she had that then maybe she could turn the wedding around.

Twilight lit her horn, it's hue glowing as she restrained Cadance in her magical grip, before throwing her towards the bed. She remembered her words, she didn't want to hurt her to badly, just enough for everypony to see. She watched on as Cadance's look of surprise remained as her body flew backwards, jutting toward the bed frame, and as she looked on, she could've sworn she saw her smile.

Cadance crashed into the bed, the covers flying to and fro, while the frame itself creaked under the velocity at which she had been flung. As she impacted with the bed, Twilight got up close to her, getting ready to slam her hoof into the mare, aiming to hit her just shy of her face, she wanted the fear to be believable but the damage to not be. In that instant, Twilight felt the presence of magic on her, holding her down to the ground. Confused, she looked up, her vision suddenly groggy and she felt herself fly through the air, before crashing into the wall beside the door.

Her vision rapidly fading she saw what looked like royal guards holding her down, she also saw several other ponies beside the princess of love. Twilight realized too little too late that in her rush to be right, that she had willingly decided to hurt another pony, and not only that, she could feel something be slapped onto her horn, 'an inhibitor ring' she thought before drifting out of consciousness.

Author's Note

To those that have read some of my other stories, Hi! To the new people, Hello There! This story was made not only with the vision of another banishment AU being made, but is also more or less influenced by the author Centurion Pike-Wall. As such I would like to extend my gratitude to you kind centurion if you ever find yourself reading this, for you have probably inspired many others like myself to write! To those that are familiar with a newbie type writing style, this story not only servers the aforementioned purposes, but it also is a way for me to stretch my capabilities to their max. Because of this, this story will take a more cohesive, lengthy writing style unlike my stories like The Light's Chosen. Either way, I hope you enjoyed the first chapter with hopefully many more to come.
