Wait a second!” Starlight said in a protesting tone. “Why does everypony just automatically assume I did it?” “Uh…” Spike scratched the back of his head as he looked at Starlight from across a square table in their train booth. “‘Cause you’ve kinda proven yourself to be morally bankrupt time and time again?” Starlight shot Spike a glare. “Okay, yeah, but still!” Sitting next to Starlight, Trixie took a deep breath then let it out. “Starlight did it, I saw it all and will testify for a plea deal.” “Trixie!” Starlight snapped. “How could you?!” “Trixie hangs for nopony, Starlight Glimmer!” Trixie declared. Sitting next to Spike, Twilight let out a long, saddened sigh. “Starlight, I’m very disappointed with you.” Starlight hung her head. “I’m sorry, Twilight…” Her head suddenly sprung back up. “But, maybe if we use some dark, forbidden resurrection magic we can—” Twilight shook her head. “I’m sorry, Starlight, but you leave me no choice. Your punishment is that you have to write ‘I will not murder ponies just because I find them annoying on the chalkboard 500 times.’” Starlight groaned. “Not the chalkboard!” “Also, no seconds on desserts for an entire week!” “Awwwww!” Starlight warbled in a disappointed tone. “Trixie calls dibs on Starlight’s extra desserts for her testimony!” Trixie exclaimed excitedly. “Deal!” Twilight said. Applejack let out an annoyed huff. “Do we have to do this everytime Starlight murders somepony?”
