After Twilight passed away, news spread around Equestria about this tragedy.

Trixie was shocked that some pony who could match her abilities passed away, she was there for Starlight as this news upset her best friend a lot and she noticed a change in Starlight and it bothered her a bit.

Discord was enraged and saddened at hearing one of his friends was gone because of the Storm King and was there for Fluttershy in this rough time.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were crushed at hearing Twilight was gone, and their sisters were there to comfort them.

Capper, Skystar, and the pirates were also upset by the news, they didn’t know Twilight that well but from what they saw she was a good pony, a bit strict but she was a great princess.

Shining Armor perhaps took it the worst out of all of them, he was very angry at hearing what happened to his sister, so he made it so Tempest was thrown in prison for what happened.

Currently at the Crystal Empire, Shining Armor and Cadence were busy talking about Tempest’s sentencing.

“Shining, I know what she did was bad, but prison for life is too harsh, especially since from what Spike told us, Tempest didn’t cause Twilight to die.” Cadence lectured.

“She is still guilty of many crimes, attempted murder according to Capper and the pirates, enslavement, petrification, harassing royalty, and imprisoning other ponies I am practically going easy on her.” Shining Armor argued.

“Shining, Twilight asked that we give Tempest another chance. Remember how well that went with Starlight?” Cadence argued back.

“That is completely different.” Shining Armor argued.

“No it isn’t.” Cadence argued.

“Yes it is.” Shining Armor said.

“Shiny you think Twilight would want this?” Cadence asked.

“Fine, we shall give her a fair trial in court, it is a waste of time obviously but we shall give her a fair chance.” Shining Armor relented.

“Thank you Shiny.” Cadence said softly.

“You’re welcome but I will be giving her a Prosecutor that will be strict, honest, and fair.” Shining Armor said.

“Of course I understand.” Cadence said.

Back at Twilight’s castle, Starlight was still crying, she lost her best friend but the funny thing is that she thought of Twilight as more than a friend and now she would never get to tell her.

“It’s all Tempest’s fault, if she hadn’t been such a greedy, power hungry twit, none of this would be happening.” Starlight ranted.

“Sigh I may be mad but I don’t wanna cause too much harm to Tempest, though I do want her to rot in a cell, does that make sense.” Starlight asked the creature standing next to her which was revealed to be Trixie.

“In my opinion yes it does make sense, she took what you loved but you still have a heart and don’t want her to become a torture dummy.” Trixie explained.

“Hey Starlight, this letter was sent to you, you might wanna read it.” Spike said walking inside.

Starlight took a look at the letter and had a smile.

“Interesting, I guess I’m about to become a prosecutor, have fun in prison Tempest.” Starlight monologues with a smirk.

“Starlight, we’re still in the room, monologue on your own time.” Trixie sarcastically comments.

“Oh, sorry.” Starlight sheepishly says.

Author's Note

I’m sorta giving Starlight an anti-hero role, I say that because Starlight isn’t a villain in this story she is going through a lot of grief and she has an extreme hatred for the pony who took her friend away from her. Now she isn’t exactly in the right but her actions and behavior in this story is understandable.
