Paybacks Are Hell

The Aftermath

After the divorce had been finalized and Swift Justice dismissed court, he motioned for Princess Celestia and Princess Luna to come to the front of the court room. He said, "Your Majesties, I need to speak to you in my chambers."

The two nodded and followed him. When they arrived in his chambers he asked, "Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, what you do in your own palace is your own business but don't you know how illegal incest is?"

Princess Celestia replied, "Yes, we do. After all, we are the ones who made the incest laws so long ago."

Swift Justice asked, "You are the ones who make this law yet you actively break it? From the way things sound, it sounds like you break this law on a regular basis."

Luna commented, "Well yes, we engage in sisterly bonding on a daily basis."

Swift Justice held his low and replied, "You know your Majesties, I have always held you in the highest regards but after today, I don't think I can anymore. Not only do you get it on with each other, you get it on with a private citizen and it sounds like you get it on with Princess Cadence as well."

Celestia said, "We do your Honor." Celestia became very nervous and stuttered, "Y-you aren't going to expose us are you? W-we aren't going to have to face incest charges are we?"

Swift Justice replied, "Because the incest charges were discovered in a civil court proceeding with nopony else around, unless Night Light, Legal Eagle or Twilight Velvet decide to expose you, nopony will know about this."

Luna asked, "Speaking of Twilight Velvet, she currently lives at the castle with us...."

Swift Justice interrupted, "About that. I know it is not my place to give you suggestions on what to do or order you around, but I think it would be in both of your best interests to evict her."

Celestia replied, "Actually, I am considering that. After all, she did expose us and has potentially put the entire monarchy at risk."

Luna added, "And she has done other things besides that."

Swift Justice sighed, "I'm assuming it is things I would rather not know." He began to head towards the door and continued, "Just take what I suggested into consideration. You don't have to do it but like I said, it would be in your best interests to rid yourselves of her."

The two nodded and headed back out into the courtroom to find and angry Velvet. She gave the princesses a glare and asked, "So girls, what did you talk about back there?" She smacked their butts and continued, "Did the judge suggest you get rid of me? Did he suggest you throw me out like yesterday's newspaper?"

Both replied in unison, "Uh, maybe?"

Velvet smacked them, yanked on their tails and yelled, "Well if you know what is good for you, you won't. Remember this girls, I OWN you. You do anything to piss me off, I'll expose you."

Unfortunately for Velvet, a sheriff's deputy noticed her spanking the princesses and yanking on their tails. He walked up to the three and grabbed Velvet. He knew this was likely a very hasty arrest but given that he saw her assault the princesses he figured it was warranted. "Ma'am, you are under arrest. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You are entitled to a lawyer and if you can't afford one, one will be provided for you. Do you understand?"

Velvet snapped, "What, you're arresting me? What for?" She again spanked the princesses and yelled, "What, because I spanked these two, because I spanked my FILLIES?"

As the deputy went to put the cuffs on her, she threw a punch, striking the deputy right in the face. When the princesses saw this, they knew something had to be done. Luna grabbed Velvet with her aura and said, "Well deputy, this should make securing her easier."

Once the deputy got Velvet cuffed, he bowed to the princesses and said, "Thank you your Majesty." Just as he began to haul Velvet to the jail, he continued, "Your Majesties, I just want to let you know that since Velvet abused you and you saw her assault me, you will likely need to be in court as witnesses once we get charges filed against her and hold her hearing."

Celestia replied, "Alright, thank you for notifying us."

As the deputy began to escort Velvet towards the jail, everypony could hear her yelling, "The princesses, they buck each other every bucking day! They buck their niece! They're guilty of incest! Fry them!"

Celestia and Luna heard this. Luna asked, "Big sister, do you think we need to worry about this? She is exposing us!"

Celestia gave her a smile and laughed, "We don't have anything to worry about little sister. Nopony is going to believe the rants of an adulteress who assaulted us and assaulted a sheriff's deputy."

As they exited the castle the two began to think about their lives more in depth and focus heavily on what eventually led to all this. They also realized that with several ponies knowing about their activities, that perhaps they need to change their lifestyles.

Once they arrived back to the palace Luna suggested, "Big sister, I am thinking that perhaps we need to end these incestuous activities that we have been partaking in for so long. This whole experience and the fact that several ponies know worries me."

Celestia replied, "Little sister, while it is going to be very hard, I agree." She began to giggle, "Well I have the perfect remedy for that. Yeah it may cause us to gain some weight but I'll just have to eat more cake!"

Luna laughed, "And I'll have to eat more fritters!" She gave Celestia a more direct look and continued, "We need to make a promise."

Celestia replied, "Twilight has a friend named Pinkie Pie who does this special promise that is not to be broken."

Luna knew all about the Pinkie promise so the two did a fist bump and said,

"Cross our hearts, hope to fly,
stick a cupcake in my eye."

The two laughed and vowed to never engage in any kind of activities that sisters should not be taking part in and wound up sticking to it.


While Swift Justice was talking to the princesses, Night Light and Legal Eagle headed out of the courthouse in triumph. Night Light could not remember a day when he was happier. For him this was the ultimate victory, he felt like his ex-wife finally received her just desserts for everything she had put him through.

Legal Eagle said, "Well Night Light, there is one more thing that has to be taken care of."

Night Light replied, "Getting everything transferred over to me?"

Legal Eagle confirmed, "Yep." He gave Night Light a curious look and asked, "So where do you go from here? Are you going to expose Velvet and the princesses?"

While he initially wanted to, Night Light realized that all that would do is create more drama in his life that he didn't want. He replied, "No, I'm not. Here lately I have had enough drama in my life to last me a hundred lifetimes." He gave Legal Eagle a curious look and said, "Please don't tell me you're going to."

Despite Legal Eagle not caring one bit for Equestira's monarchy, he decided against it but for different reasons. He replied, "While I would truly love to, I have decided against it. After all, Prince Blueblood has done nothing wrong and the very thoughts of him ruling Equestria makes me want to throw up."

The two reached their cars and Night Light said, "Well, thank you for representing me and helping me win this."

Legal Eagle replied, "Well I'm glad I could help you." He gave Night Light a smile and continued, "And you know what? Since you're Princess Twilight's father, I'm not going to charge you anything. This is on me!"

Night Light said, "Thanks!" He got into his car and pulled something out of his glove box, a buckball game ticket. He handed it to Legal Eagle and asked, "Hey, I have an extra ticket for the buckball game against Manehattan this weekend, want to come?"

Legal Eagle had never been to a buckball game before but thought it sounded fun. He said, "You bet I'll come! I'll see you there!"

The two gave one another a fist bump before parting ways. As Night Light drove home, he began to sing, well tried to sing, "We are the Champions." When he arrived home he was cheering in triumph as he headed into what was now his house.

When he got in, he noticed that he had a message on the answering machine. He played it,

"Night Light, this is Judge Swift Justice. One thing I forgot to mention is that you and Velvet need to meet at the County Clerk's office so you can have her name taken off of the property as soon as possible. If you could come as soon as you get this message, that would be for the best. Don't worry about having to put up with her alone. She has been arrested for assaulting Princess Celestia, Princess Luna and a sheriff's deputy so a guard will be escorting her. Regarding the bank accounts, the sheriff's office will take her to your bank so you two can take care of that. You have a good day."

When Night Light heard that Velvet had been arrested for assault, especially assaulting those who she did, he realized that she would likely be locked up for quite some time, especially for assaulting the princesses.

He began to cheer,

"BOOYAH BABY! FINALLY, THAT BITCH GETS WHAT SHE DESERVES! WOO-HOO!"
