This story is a sequel to Everymare Loves Chrysalis

One week ago, a spell from Twilight Sparkle to land dates on Hearts and Hooves Day ended in a disaster. It also ended in the "filly code" being accidentally broken, a grave sin that is even worse than bringing about the end of Equestria.

Now, Twilight finds herself begging for her embarrassing punishment to be ended early. Turns out, it was merely the beginning.

Enough will be explained in the story to understand what's going on (and laugh) without having to read the predecessor story first.

After King Sombra had returned and attacked the Crystal Empire, he captures Princess Cadance, Shining Armor, and Flurry Heart. Too weak to do anything themselves, Cadance and Shining had no choice but to wait for Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends to save them.

However, Sombra took a low blow by taking Flurry Heart and attacking the parental prides of Cadance and Shining. Princess Cadance took it especially hard.

King Sombra might want to start running...

Takes place in the season 9 premiere.

Last but not least, special thanks to flutterJackdash for helping me edit this story.

EDIT: made the feature list on 11/28/19!!

Alternate take on Season 5 premiere:

What if the Mane Six followed Starlight into the cave? What if they caught her instead of letting her get away? What if there was also a human living back in Ponyville who had trouble making friends?

This story is an "adopted" story of my friend TheHardie-Boy's story of "Caught and Punished", and that story was inspired by Slave Starlight written by titanictime2

The prologue and chapters 1-4 are from TheHardie-Boy's version, but with some minor edits. Chapter 5 and the chapters afterward are completely written by me. Despite the "Sad" tag, this isn't going to be a downer story and it will have a number of light-hearted moments. There will still be some sad moments, of course.

Special thanks to TheHardie-Boy for giving suggestions to the story and proofreading the prologue, chapters 1, 2, 8, 11, 12, and 32, and flutterJackdash for editing chapters 3 and 5.
