The Criminal

"Get back here!"

The chase was on.

Shadowfire jumped a couple boxes and bolted into the alley, a unicorn officer behind him.

He loved this part of town. Nothing here but unicorns, which meant nothing that could ever catch him. Unicorns had their fancy magic, but they could never outrun him.

Granted, that didn't stop him from giving himself a slight head start at the beginning. That scaffolding was ugly anyway.

He'd faced off against everything: telekinetics, stunners, and even a couple teleporters. None of them had ever caught him.

The unicorn behind him was a runner, apparently. He chuckled a little. Unicorns thinking they could outrun an earth pony never failed to amuse him. The officer wasn't even trying to use any speed enhancement spells like the others. Even now, the other pursuing officers' speed spells had worn off, leaving just this one remaining.

He dodged trough the alleyways and streets that he knew like the back of his hoof.

Looking behind him, he saw something he didn't expect. The officer was gaining.

But that didn't make any sense. He clearly wasn't using any spells, and earth ponies ran faster than unicorns anyway. Granted, he wasn't completely an earth pony, but he still had more earth blood in him than that officer... unless...

He looked behind him again. That officer was still gaining.

And the officer was mad...

Not good...

Time for plan B. He ran into the nearest building he could find. It didn't matter what it was so long as there was something that could burn. What was this place, a restaurant?

Perfect. Panicking ponies would just make the cops take longer.

He concentrated, focusing on every angry thought that came to his mind.

Everypony screamed as he erupted into flames. He dashed around the room, brushing up against as many tablecloths and curtains as he could, then doused himself and ran back into the streets.

Just as expected, the cop had stayed behind to evacuate the building. He smiled as he made his way into the night.

He made it to his hideout and emptied his saddlebags. Inside was enough jewelry to get him at least five packets of poison joke extract.

As he was stuffing everything back into the saddlebags, there was a knock at the door.

"This is the police."

He crept over to the window and looked out. A pair of pegasus stallions stood outside.

He facehooved. The district had joined with another one that had pegasi in it. They must have been tracking him from the air the whole time.

He galloped to the back, opened the window and climbed out. Immediately, he was caught in a levitation field that held his hooves together so that he couldn't run.

Looking up, he saw the face of the stallion that had been pursuing him.

"He came out this way."

As the pegasi flew over the roof to reach him, more officers approached from the other corners of the house.

The unicorn pulled a set of cuffs out of his saddlebags and attached them firmly to his hooves.

"You, young colt, are under arrest."

Can you post each and every Bio here ?

Sure. I'll do that. The only one here that's not an OC is Pluto. She's a background character from the show that I reinterpreted as a hybrid. The rest, I can put in the bios.

She goes by three different names: Alula, Pluto, and Princess Erroria. Pluto is just the one that I like best, but Princess Erroria is the easiest one to find her under, and I'm not entirely sure that any of the names are even canon. The TVTropes page links all three names to the "Fan Nickname" page, which seems to indicate that she doesn't have a canon name at all.

Anyway here are the pictures I could find of her.
