I almost burst out laughing right then and there, she was looking at me with the most hilarious expression ever!
"Propane? What even is that?" She said, her anger momentarily disappearing and being replaced with utter confusion.
Alright, my best chance right now to get the hell out of here is to confuse her enough so she stops paying attention to me, easier said than done.
"What? You don't know what propane is?!" I put on a shocked expression, trying to stop myself from laughing, which was becoming more and more difficult.
"How am I-" I didn't let her finish as I shushed her by putting the tip of my hoof to her mouth.
"Boy I'll tell you hwat, propane is the best gosh darn fuel you'll ever find anywhere!" I said triumphantly with the best Hank hill voice I could manage.
She took a few steps back and looked at me as if I've grown a second head, good. This is all going according to plan.
"Wha- what are y-" I interrupted her yet again by suddenly looking behind her with a gasp.
"Look! they're selling propane there!" Holy shit she actually fell for it! as I pointed my hoof towards a location behind her, she turned her head around to look at said spot, big mistake, those few seconds were all I needed to get the hell outta dodge.
I considered my options for a quick second, I could either use my wings to fly the hell out of here, and risk her being able to track were I went more easily by just simply looking at me, or I could start running and hopefully be able to loose her. not very much in the way of options, but It'll have to do, I didn't have time to think of anything else.
I extended my wings and gave them a few good flaps, enough to get me airborne by a couple of meters, what I didn't account for was the fact that there was a big, fat tree branch right on top of where I took off, so I ended up slamming my head into it.
"Gah! fuck!" Immense pain washed over me as my head collided with the branch, which was odd, since it shouldn't have been that painful.
As the pain eased, the first thing I noticed was that I was still up in the air, I slowly opened my eyes and looked up, or at least, I tried to look up, since it appeared that my horn had been impaled within the branch itself.
"What the fu... oh great, now I'm stuck up here." I sighed and looked down, knowing that Purple had probably found out that no one was actually selling propane, and sure enough, she did. As I looked down, I saw her staring up at me, covering her mouth with her right hoof, probably to try to stop herself from laughing.
"Hey! stop laughing and help me out here!" I yelled out to her as I started struggling to set my self free.
"Why should I? in fact, I think you'll make a perfect decoration until the Princesses get here." She replied with a shit eating grin, that little... "Alright, look, I'll cooperate, just get me down from here, this isn't exactly pain free you know!" I said in an irritated manner as I continued my struggle with the branch.
"And who's to say you won't just go running off once I free you?"
"I promise I won't run! I promise! Just... get me down from here!" She rubbed her chin with one of her hooves for a few seconds, no doubt just trying to raise my hopes. "Alright, I'll let you down, but first.." I was suddenly blinded by another flash of light as I felt something wrap around me and something round, like a ring at the base of my horn, it took me a seconds to realize that she had tied me up.
"There, that should prevent you from escaping" She said with a hint of smugness in her voice.
I opened my mouth to voice my complaints about me still being suspended in the air, but I has interrupted as a purple glow surrounded me and I felt an invisible force pull me down, and since I was tied up, I ended up hitting the ground face first.
"GAH! FUCK!" I screamed in pain as my face make first contact with the ground, unfortunately for me, I couldn't really move, so I just sat there and took it like a man.
"Oh! sorry!" I felt myself be levitated into the air by the same invisible force that pulled me down and moved into the library, It felt strange, almost like if I was covered in a thin layer of water.
"Er.... Purple?" I called out as I was dropped on the couch, I shook my head a bit and looked in the direction of Purple. "What was that?" I asked, now, if I was still in my human body, I would have freaked out by the fact that I had just been levitated through the air, but after witnessing all the shit I've seen, you tend to run out of shocked faces to make.
"What do you mean? I just used a simple levitation spell" She replied with confusion, honestly, after seeing her teleport, I shouldn't be surprised.
Wait, now I remember! I levitated a... lamp right? I really need to brush up on my memory skills...
"Eh... right.." I repositioned myself so that I could be more comfortable on the couch, after a bit of struggling due to the bonds, I managed to get myself into a better position, just in time for Purple to start asking her questions.
"First off, I want to know, and I want you to answer truthfully, who are you?"
