Goodbye Twilight

by Starlight Fan

Guilt and Intervention

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Tempest sat in her cell ashamed of herself, she felt like she deserved this, she treated her kind so horribly, she only had two visitors, Cadence and Spike, everyone else was either afraid, or angered by her presence. She did have Grubber as her cellmate, he was getting a lighter sentence since he didn't cause much damage or commit enough crimes in fact he pleaded guilty which gave him a one year sentence. All the Storm Guards refused reformation so they were imprisoned for life.

Grubber noticed his friend feeling down and decided to talk to Tempest about this.

"Tempest, we both know that what happened to the purple alicorn princess wasn't your fault, please don't beat yourself up about this." Grubber pleaded.

"Grubber this isn't just because of Twilight, I shot down an airship, I enslaved ponies, and I physically harmed a lot of creatures, this is where I belong." Tempest said mournfully.

"Well that's up to the court to decide, and if you ask me that purple haired unicorn who attacked you sounds a lot more unhinged than you are." Grubber said.

"Grubber she has every right to be mad at me, don't say stuff like that." Tempest commanded softly.

"Okay, but still things will get better." Grubber said with some hope.

"I hope your right Grubber." Tempest said while looking out her cell window.

Back at the friendship castle, Spike, Sunburst, and Trixie were discussing about Starlight's mental health.

"Sunburst we don't know what to do, she's becoming more vengeful than ever, she told me she wants justice to be thrown at Tempest and by justice she means she wants Tempest to be imprisoned." Spike said.

"While that is justified, Starlight seems to be taking this a bit too far, we might have to talk to her about this and hope she listens." Sunburst responded.

"And what happens if she doesn't, what will we do then?" Trixie asks annoyed.

"I don't know, I haven't planned that far." Sunburst responded.

"Guys, look she's coming." Spike interrupts.

Starlight then walks in the room where the three were talking, and spoke "Hey Sunburst, I got your letter to meet here, so what do you wanna talk about?"

"Starlight, we're a bit concerned about how you've been acting recently." Sunburst spoke softly.

"And by a bit concerned he means very concerned." Trixie said.

"We know you're upset about Twilight, but this isn't the way to handle this. Can't you be fair and go easy on Tempest when your the prosecutor against her?" Spike asked in concern.

"I will be fair when I am the prosecutor against Tempest, but I will not go easy on her." Starlight says softly.

"But Starlight if you act on anger and vengeance won't you be going down the wrong path like you used to?" Trixie commented.

That comment made something in Starlight snap and she then looked directly at Trixie with anger in her eyes.

"No I won't be going down the wrong path, and do you know why? Because whatever I say in that court case will be true and honest. So don't even think for a moment I'm turning evil again." Starlight yelled.

"Understood." Trixie said frightened.

"Good, sorry I yelled but you need to stop assuming I'll turn evil because I'm suffering grief, I'm gonna go prepare for my court case against Tempest." Starlight stated before leaving the room.

After Starlight left, Sunburst seemed calm and sighed in relief.

"That went well." Sunburst said honestly.

"Yeah at least she listened." Spike said in agreement.

"Note to Self don't talk about Starlight's evil past." Trixie muttered to herself.


Author's Note

Yeah I may be focusing on Starlight a lot, but she's not the only focus of the story, the Mane 5 will have a role in this, and Tempest will get her own chapters, I like Grubber so I gave him a positive role in this story. I hope I wrote him well, and no I am not writing his lisp that is a bit too hard to write or read in my opinion. Hopefully I'm doing well so far.
