Chapter 5.3

“What should I do with my slaves dear?” 
  
Dragonfly squinted both of her eyes making that slight tone of her giggle with that weird smirk on her face of having her teeth together. 
  
Veilios looked at her while the white unicorn walked in with a tight black suit and a white hat. 
  
“Dragonfly, we are ready for departure.  Which slaves shall go?” 
  
Dragonfly looked to her right. 
  
“What say you Veilios my dear slave.  Pick one to stay, who shall it be?” 
  
Veilios wondered in her thick skull of hers. 
  
“What will happen to the rest if I may ask?” 
  
“When ponies aren’t obedient, they need to learn their lesson.  I mean why else?  We are ponies who believe in the full strength of our faith.  The celestial gods.  If they can’t obey laws, they must be punished for their crimes.  However, your friend in red coat fur did something so cruel.  She led her parents to their deaths.  Which should be a crime… Her father died from a rockslide while the wife died from a timber-wolf.” 
  
Veilios opened her eyes wide. 
  
“We know what has happened to the mother where her corpse was stained in the forest.  The father however was squashed.  Like sugar pancakes with whip cream.” 
  
“I… but what does this have to do with me.  I never killed anyone.” 
  
Dragonfly licks on Veilios left cheek. 
  
“Dispose of them besides the number five on her left ear.” 
  
“Snowball is going to be saved.” 
  
“Not quite.  Her crime is a mystery which has never come into question yet. However, you on the other left hoof were at the scene of the crime. Which must pay a slave toll since death is played.” 
  
Dragonfly gives her that smile. 
  
“Whenever you are done, stranger? You may continue to set them on the carriage and then set them for a course to the cult where they may learn a thing or two that is worse than death itself.” 
  
Veilios scrunches her teeth. 
  
“You can’t be serious; they are ponies but why worse than death?  What is even worse than death?” 
  
“In my opinion life itself. Due to the knowledge of everyone who is a unicorn knows the pain. We are all nerds and realize this from age six to eight.  What do the pegasus know or earth pony? They are not like us. That’s why we're different.” 

The white unicorn walked out of the room.  Grabbed every pony there besides the one with a five tag on someone's left ear.  While they walk out with the slaves and put them into the carriage.  The strange smirk led them out to the cult where they will find most painful in life. 
 


The sun was setting while Rane looked outside the window with a sad face on what she had in her mind for most of the time she was there.  Questioning herself if she was guilty.  The night sky turned to black while Rane took a deep breath and blew it all the air out.  The Prince Blue Dream wondered what had happened during the dance that they had.  He of course thought she was sad with that one tear of her left eye.  Over to the Prince. He looked out the window which he saw was the full moon. While he thought it was beautiful, something was a bit odd to him. Later he questioned himself a bit about what her crime was.
