Date Posted: 01/04/13

Personal Comments: I've been thinking about all the "Pony in the human world" stories for MLP. I was wondering, do the Ponies have to deal with animal control? I bet some said stories involve animal control. And then I thought about the most notorious cartoon animal control officer ever: Captain Chantel DuBois from Madagascar! And then this idea was born.

I haven't really done much writing for a few days. Haven't really had much inspiration I guess. Boredom been getting to me, and then I got indulged in gaming. But I'll see what I can do here. I have a few ideas for chapters here I'd like to do; four to be exact.

I know in the canon, DuBois has four men in her squad, but in this version, she has five so she has the same number as the mane six.

I wasn't sure at first about spelling the spoken words so that they matched the French accents, but I decided on it anyway.


In her office, DuBois looked over all the heads on her wall, being filled with great pride as she did so. Each head reminded her of all of her triumphs, how no animal, no matter how big or small or clever, had ever escaped her. All she needed to complete her collection, she thought, was a lion's head.

And that was when the phone rang. She snatched it with lightning reflexes, and held it to her ear. She recited the intro she knew by heart for every time her phone rang.

"Monte Carlo Animal Control. Captain DuBois Speaking."

"Captain DuBois!" Cried the man at the other end. "We need your help! Another animal breakout!"

"Mm-hm, yes?" She nodded. "What am I dealing with?"

"It's-it's incredible!" The man stammered. "Nothing ve've ever seen before! We-we got- um, two ponies-"

"Yes?"

"Two pegasi-"

"What?" DuBois's eyes suddenly widened in shock.

"Yes- um- and two unicorns."

After a pause, DuBois burst out laughing. "Do not play games with me," She hissed back into the phone, her tone suddenly serious and angry. "I do not have time to be joking of such fantasies. Pegasi and unicorns are not real."

"No, this is no joke, Captain," the man pleaded. "They are real and right here! Here, I'll fax you a photo right now!"

And after a minute of waiting, DuBois impatiently rapping her fingers on her desk, her printer suddenly spat out a photo of six colored ponies, two of which had wings, two more having horns. They all seemed to have strange tatoos on their rears as well. Looking about the background, it was clear that the photo was taken by a security camera at the museum.

DuBois's eyes widened in shock. This was incredible! Pegasi and unicors! Two mythical beasts of legend! It was...

Wonderful! DuBois looked up at her wall where there were a few empty spaces; where she could mount a few more heads. She would be the first animal control officer ever to hunt such legendary beasts. She would become known all around the world! Plus, such mythical beasts were sure to be excellent game, perhaps even more challenging than the lion!

A wicked grin spread around her face as she imagined how the hunt would go. She held the phone back up to her head.

"Don't worry," She said slyly, "I vill take care of zem." And then she hung up.

She pushed a button on her intercom. "Boys, arm yourselves prepare the bikes. We got a mission!" She then slid up to her closet and grabbed her tools; her dart gun, many darts, her saw, her dog-catching pole, some bear-traps, gas grenades, pocket knife, lipstick, anything else she thought she might need.

Five minutes later, she met up with her five men in the dimly-lit garage, all were suited up and on their bikes, ready to roll. She mounted hers likewise. She would explain the situation on the way. She hit the door button on her bike, and the door opened annoying slow. Finally when it was open, the squad all zoomed out into the light down the streets of Monte Carlo, sirens blaring, DuBois in the lead.

As she rode, another wicked smirk spread across her face.

"I'm coming for you, unicorns," She whispered.
