Punishment

Twilight and her friends shot the rainbow at us, encompassing us both. I cried out as the splitting pain spread throughout my being. It was as if every part of me was being torn apart. But, as soon as the ache started, it stopped. I opened my eyes and found I was in a place that looked like Everfree Forest.

"How did we get here?" I asked, rubbing my head.

"Probably from the Elements…" Trixie suggested, standing up slowly. "Wait, what is this?"

We were inside a giant cage. The cage was the color of each of the Elements, so I assumed that this was the fate those blasted stones decided. It could have been worse though, I could be imprisoned in stone like that loser Discord.

"Well, this isn't too bad. We can just break out and—" I was cut off by the sound of an angry roar. I turned to see a manticore in the cage with us. It was probably unfortunate enough to get caught in with the magic.

"Quickly! Break a way out!" Trixie cried. I touched one of the rods with my shadow hoof, but immediately I was shocked.

"It's no good, we're stuck," I said.

"This is just great, now Trixie is not only stuck in a cage with a creature that can hardly be called royalty, but with a vicious monster too," she muttered.

"Well boo-hoo. I'm stuck with an egotistic mare that has nothing to be proud of in the first place," I retorted.

Our banter was soon cut short as the manticore lunged at us. We hurried around the cage and the manticore went face first into the electrifying bars surrounding the cage.

"At least he's gone now," Trixie said weakly.

"Shut up."

My plan had utterly failed and I was stuck in this cage for who knew how long. I sighed at my fate. Well, at least I knew that my kingdom was able to protect itself just fine, which is all I needed.
