My Little Pony: Unfinished Business

"...And the mayor said women could never defeat men..." The Unicorn Stallion said. He and the other stallions were now all tied up and hanging upside down from a tree.

"And that takes care of those three." Cozy Glow said. "Now let's get you out of here." She said to the Pegasus colt and took him somewhere safe.

Later an earth pony stallion much older then the three goons showed up to find the three stallions as Cozy left them.

"What happened to you three?" The older stallion asked.

"It was the traitor...he did this." The Earth Pony Stallion said.

"That nerd? Ha. He could barely lift a dumbell." The older stallion said.

"He had back up...some pegasus filly. He must have got her in on a plan to make us unable to hurt him anymore." The Pegasus stallion said.

"Oh really? And exactly what happened?" The older stallion asked.

"Every time we went to punch him, she stood in our way, and as you know sir, it's forbidden in this village to hurt female ponies of any age." The Earth Pony stallion said.

"So he used the village's rules against us. Dammit. I knew he was clever but this? Who is that guy?" The older stallion said. "Well until I figure out a way to separate those two, just observe them from now on." He added.

"Thank you. My name is Veritas Revelare. It's Latin for Truth Reveal. And I'm always in pursuit of the truth. Thanks for the assist, but you really should just leave this place before you succumb to the corruption present here." The Pegasus colt said.

"What? Corruption?" Cozy Glow asked.

"Yeah. This place claims to be a place for exiles like ourselves to live without fear of royalty, but the mayor continues to make rule after rule that further takes away our freedoms, more so then normal. It's as if he WANTS us to be turned over to the Princesses of Equestria. Heck, I was exiled because Princess Celestia found out that I discovered that she had two very similar plans, one for Sunset Shimmer and another for Twilight." Veritas Revelare said.

"Wait what?!" Cozy Glow exclaimed. All this time, the real person she should have blamed for the way things were run, it was all Celestia's fault, never Twilight's fault. Cozy felt guilty now, she wanted to get rid of Twilight, not realizing the real person who was making Equestria go under.

"So you've got to get out of here, go warn the princesses. Surely they'll pardon you if you tell them how corrupt this place is." Veritas Revelare said.

"The princesses...won't do anything." Cozy Glow said. "They won't act unless it directly effects Equestria." She added. "Which means...it has to be me." Cozy Glow finished. Suddenly when Cozy Glow said that, it clicked.

Wait...I'm right, aren't I? Cozy Glow thought to herself. It has to be me. The only way the corruption ends in this place is if I remove it myself. I can do it...I can lead this place! She continued to think to herself.

"Your crazy! You really think you can take on the Mayor?" Veritas Revelare asked.

"I do." Cozy Glow said and walked off to go face her destiny.

"Here!" Prince Flash Sentry said, using his hoof to point to a part of the world map. "This is the only place that isn't claimed by any one ruler." He added.

"That would make it easy to hide a village of exiles." Ember said.

"No way a creature without magic or wings would be able to get into that area; that place isn't accessible on foot." Thorax said.

"What do you mean?" Gilda asked.

"I think I see it..." Rain Shine said. "There's a large circle of mountains surrounding that area. That is the way to read this map, right?" She asked.

"Yak gets it, on foot travel is difficult. Exiles probably have a scouting party in case one wonders too close to the mountains." The Yak leader said.

"I bet their all unicorns too, considering their the only ponies with magic." Princess Twilight said.

"Wait, I just thought of something." Phyranx said. "Do you think the one who released Cozy Glow is from there?" He asked.

"That's a possibility. We could ask the one in charge if they've seen a pegasus stallion around there that fits our description." Princess Twilight said.

"See? I told you you could come up with something." Prince Flash said. Twilight blushed and nodded.
