Sweet Revenge

Spreading the News, Part 2

It was evening in Omareha and Sweetie Belle was in a sports lounge watching a buckball game. She had been relaxing and doing enjoyable things since returning from Ponyville. She began to cheer loudly as Canterlot was one score away from dethroning defending champion Ponyville. Once the ball got back into play again and it looked like Canterlot was going to be victorious, the screens on the TV went blue with the words "Breaking News" on them. Sweetie and everypony else began to boo loudly.

The TV then went to the news where the anchor began,

"We have breaking news in both Ponyville and Canterlot. This morning the bodies of three ponies were discovered in the Silver mansion in Ponyville. The bodies of the three were badly beaten, bloodied and bruised. When the authorities searched the crime scene they found silver mane in the clenched fists of Mr. Silver Dime, one of the wealthiest ponies in Equestria.

Officer Silver Shield along with Princess Twilight Sparkle then did a search in the house of the only pony in the town with silver mane and a set of bloodied brass knuckles were found. The pony, Silver Spoon along with her wife Shadow Blast were taken in for questioning. During the questioning, Silver Spoon assaulted both Ponyville police chief Silver Shield and Princess Twilight Sparkle."

The whole room gasped in shock and a smile began to creep on Sweetie Belle's face but she wasn't going to celebrate until she knew that her plan worked.

The anchor continued, "The evidence has been taken to the crime lab up in Canterlot and Silver Spoon was transported there to face a judge for her assaulting a law enforcement officer and a princess. Given that the assaults were caught on camera, Silver Spoon was convicted on one count of assaulting a police officer and on one count of assaulting a princess. In total Silver Spoon will be serving five years in prison but if the crime lab is able to tie the mane found at the crime scene and the bloodied brass knuckles do have blood of the victims on them, Silver Spoon could face a much longer sentence. As more information is released, we will be able to give you more information.....and now we return you to our regularly scheduled programming."

The game was already over when they returned to the game coverage and Canterlot had won so Sweetie cheered, "Yes, yes, yes, we won, I won!" Some of the ponies began looking at her strangely with what she said so she corrected herself, "I meant we won, Canterlot won."

Everypony then focused back on the post-game coverage but Sweetie left and headed back towards her hotel room. Once she returned she continued her celebration but much more quietly. She was jumping around her room, pumping her fist skywards and whispered, "Yes, yes, yes! That little bitch's charmed life is gone, it's done, it's over!"

Her phone then rang and when she saw it was Scootaloo calling, she immediately answered.

"Hi Scootaloo, how's it going?"

"Hey, did you hear the news? Silver Slut got five years in prison for assaulting a police officer and Princess Twilight!"

*exclaims* "I know, you have no idea how happy I am. I feel like this is a victory for me, no, make that a victory for us!"

"I know. I never imagined she'd be so stupid as to actually shove a cop and a princess, especially with her going to jail in the past for shoving you."

*snickers* "Oh I can only imagine how her family must be feeling right now, this must feel like a total kick in the balls for them, well if they had any that is!"

"And I can't help but wonder how Apple Bloom is taking this. I know she had grown very close to her and her family." *pauses before continuing* "Now about that evidence that could cause her problems, what is all that about?"

"You know, I'm not sure. I wasn't there so I don't know what was found at the crime scene but if she did wind up killing her father, she is nuts. She's supposed to get a ton of money when he dies."

"Maybe she wanted that money early. Why she would though I don't know because I've heard he was already giving her tons of money to start with."

"Well all we can do is just wait and see." *yawns* "Well it is getting late here, I think I'm going to hit the hay. Talk to you later."

"Talk to you later Sweetie Belle!"

*END OF CALL*

After hanging up the phone Sweetie collapsed back on her bed and continued to pump her fist in celebration before finally trying to go to sleep. That night it was very hard for her to go to sleep as all she could think about was Silver Spoon in a jail cell crying her eyes out. She then began to think about what would happen if Silver was to get indicted and convicted on the murder charges. She whispered to herself, "That would be the ultimate victory! She'd never see the light of day again!"


Sweetie was woken up a bit earlier than she would like but it wasn't by the sun, it was by her phone. When she picked it up she saw that it was Legal Eagle calling. She immediately picked it up,

"Hi Legal Eagle, what's going on?"

"Chief, I know you're on vacation and you're probably not wanting to think about anything involving law enforcement right now but I just thought I'd let you know that a triple murder occurred in Ponyville and somepony assaulted the police chief and Princess Twilight during her interrogation."

"Yeah, I heard that on the news last night. It is crazy that somepony would assault a cop and a princess. You'd think they'd know they'd wind up in jail for that."

"I know. Anyway, the assailant got five years in jail and now we are waiting on results from the crime lab to see if this pony may be facing murder charges as well."

"Well we'll just have to wait and see. I will say this, I'm glad this didn't happen when I was the chief down in Ponyville since I do have a past with her."

"I was going to bring that up. Well anyway, you enjoy the rest of your vacation....I simply wanted to see if you knew."

"Thanks, you have a good day."

*END OF CALL*

After her phone call, Sweetie wanted to try and put all of this out of her mind. She didn't want to simply hide out in her hotel room and she knew she couldn't be all smiles out in public. She then said to herself, "Just try and not think about this at all. Just live in the here and now, in Omareha. Don't focus on anything going on in either Ponyville or Canterlot."
