Love Bleeding

In The Court

I get dressed up in my fanciest getup. I was wearing a beauty gown. It was black to represent my mourning for Twi-Twi. That's what I called Twilight when she was alive. She used to call me Flutter Fluff. I wore a black veil like at a funeral. I had purple shoes because Twilight was purple. It wasn't the same shade, but it got the point across. Finally, I had a pearl necklace that was dyed red to represent that blood that Twilight shed when she died. I was ready to go. Oh, yes, man. I went to the court down town. People were beginning to flood the room. It was people that I didn't know because I'm shy and I don't know that many ponies. Or griffons, or dargons, or any other sapient beings. I only had animals. I looked at the jury. There were only eleven people because Twilight was in the jury and she was dead. But now she wasn't. They just forgot to replace her yet.

I sat in my witnessing seat. It was a big chair. It was super comfy. It was made of leather. It smelled like an animal. It was really comfy, even more comfy than that bed at my cottage. I felt like stealing it. I had a urge inside me. But I shoved it away because stealing is bad. I should just ask nicely for it. If I said please and thank you, maybe they would let me do it.

There was a big desk in front of me. It was brown and made of wood. I exhaled slowly. I saw the fat judge guy sitting in his judge seat. He was judging me. I wondered if he would let me take home the chair. His chair looked comfier, though. Maybe I should ask him nicely for his chair instead of the one I was sitting in. He had one of those hammer things I saw on Judge Judy. I didn't like the sound it made when he smacked it on the desk and screamed at the guy. I hoped he wouldn't do that. I don't like it.

The judge took a bite of a hamburger he brought. Except it wasn't a ham burger. It was a veggie burger since ponies are vegetarians. He was a pony too. Except I think he was a horse since he looked really tough and meaty. He had meaty feet and a meaty neck. He ate the burger up. I stared at him. I was scared that he was judging me on the inside.

He put the burger back down and slammed his hammer on the desk. It left a dent. He said "Welcome to court." He had a accent I think.
A couple of guys brought in a casket. It was Twilight's casket. They opened it and Twilight's corpse was in it and she was posed peacefully and her face looked like this "XUX" like the X's are her eyes and the U is her mouth. She was dead. She had a blood stain on her burial dress. Her face had makeup like Rarity. She looked so beautiful. I missed my friend. I remember one time when we played hopscotch in my grassy yard. We used cardboard squares since we couldn't afford chalk in my day. We had a great time. Looking at Twilight's casket, I hoped she would stand up like a angel and be alive. It was like The Westing Game except Twilight wasn't an old man.

The guys carried the casket and set it down on a table. I stared at them. Then they left and the judge said "Okay, let's get it started." The jury people grabbed some things to write with. I sat still since I was a witness and I thought about Twilight's carcass in the casket.
