Neighsay woke up, chained in a chair, and with a device on his horn to keep him from using his magic. He was in the Royal Courtroom. Trials only took place in there if it was a serious trial. He shuddered as he came to realize that he was standing a serious trial. He was startled cold, when Celestia slammed her gavel down. He looked up, and saw her, Luna, Cadence, Twilight, and the Christians. He did not know that his wounds were still fresh from when he was whipped.

"WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO SAY FOR YOURSELF?", Celestia demanded.

Neighsay refused to speak. Link nodded to Stephen, who activated a device to splash Neighsay with saltwater. Neighsay screamed in agony, as the salt burned him.

"I WANTED REVENGE FOR WHEN YOU FIRED ME!", he finally spat, after the pain ended.

"YOU ENDED INNOCENT LIVES, YOU LUNATIC!!", Twilight yelled.

"YOU ALMOST DESTROYED TWO SCHOOLS THAT WERE FORMERLY UNDER YOUR COMMAND!!", Luna shouted.

"YOU COULD HAVE KILLED MY BABY!!", Cadence screamed as she pounded the railing while looking down at him.

Neighsay choked in disgust as Cadence showed him a mental image of how badly injured Flurry Heart was. The poor dear was  crying in pain, and was still wrapped head to hoof in bandages, as if they were a baby blanket.

"YOU ARE CHARGED WITH MULTIPLE COUNTS OF PREMEDITATED MURDER!!", Brandon shouted in rage.

"IF YOU HAD NOT FIRED ME, I WOULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS!! I WOULD HAVE STILL BEEN MAD AT TWILIGHT, AND TRIED TO PUT HER ON TRIAL THOUGH!!", Neighsay yelled back.
