Twilight Stickmin

Misfire

Use the Teleporter (50%)

It wasn’t easy for her to admit, but Twilight actually couldn’t perform a teleportation spell. She tried, and she got the closest out of anypony else, but she never was able to perform it successfully. Thus, she would have to use the teleporter spell slab.

She pulled the green square of stone out of the cake. Concentrating, she envisioned herself outside of her prison, standing on the sands of the desert a free mare. She put her magic into the stone and let the inscribed spell move her body.

“Ready?” she heard a voice say. Looking around she saw she was standing in front of a pony shaped silhouette. Behind her was two police officers pointing a crossbow at her.

“FIRE!” Captain Fancy Pants had been proctoring Officer Trailblazer’s marksmareship test, when a Pony teleported right onto the firing range, that wasn’t going to look good on any of the records.

FAIL
I guess some things just weren’t meant to be.

Twilight sparked back into existence hyperventilating. She thanked her lucky stars she was able to reverse the spell before she got shot. But, she was now back in her cell. With the phony cake still on the floor.

Use the Cellphone (50%)

Cellular telephones. Telephones themselves actually weren’t that recent an invention. Equestria had had working phone lines for nearly 70 years. These lines connected the major cities together and were primarily used by governmental offices and police stations. Cellphones were a recent upgrade, and were very expensive.

Fortunately, Twilight knew how to operate one and knew exactly who to call…

September 9th 12:53 PM
District Court House
Courtroom No. 4

The gavel crashed down drawing all eyes to the judge. He was an old horse with a long grey beard. The epidemy of a court judge.

“Witness, please continue your testimony.”

“Okay.”

Witness Testimony

The witness in question was one Lyra Heartstrings, one of the Unicorns who had unknowingly smuggled Twilight into the Bank.

“I was riding alongside my partner in the armored van, when suddenly… We spotted a bag on the side of the road. We got out and eventually decided to throw the bag in with the others. We didn’t know there was somepony hiding in there!”

“Objection!” Twilight’s attorney was a Unicorn mare about the same age as her, named Minuette. Her light blue fur contrasted with her cobalt and blue grey mane. Said mane had been pulled back into an elaborate and rather impossible hairdo. “So, the defendant crawled into that bag in order to break into the bank. Is that correct?”

“Is it not obvious?” jest the prosecutor, another old stallion, though one more unkempt and wild looking.

“Is it really that obvious?” Minuette retorted. “I have proof that the defendant didn’t hide herself inside that bag.”

“Well then,” said the judge. “What are you waiting for? Present this evidence at once!”

Present which piece of evidence?

Attorney’s Badge: It is my all-important badge. It shows that I am a defense attorney.

Disguising Bag: The bag the defendant used to sneak into the bank. The knot is tied on the outside of the bag.

Floor Plans of Bank: A diagram of the bank and its surroundings.

Mysterious Device (teleporter): A device whose use is unknown.

Security Footage: Security footage of the night of the intrusion. Shows the defendant leaving her disguise and setting off the alarm.

Doctor’s Analysis: Doctor’s examination of the defendant done after arrest. Defendant suffered many bruises.
