The Tail of the Bread Stealer

View Online

In the bright shine of day, somepony screamed.

"Sweet Celestia, where is my panini?!"

The bright shine of day continued.

"I know someone took it! Show yourselves!"

The bright shine of day contained shadows in its' creeks. Out of one of those creeks, emerged somepony. Twilight Sparkle stared at the figure, the shine of day illuminating the somepony greatly, the shine bouncing off in other directions. The pony had a navy suit, but Twilight just knew in her clever mind that the pony was one of her five friends. Twilight's house—tree trunk library—was not and never will be a place for bread stealers, or any criminals at all.

"This library cannot hold the two of us. You must go—you bread stealer," ordered Twilight.

"This is a big library, Twilight. And I am not stealing your petty and stuck up bread," replied somepony. "It is not just me and you here in this library, you lavender hot dog," explained somepony. Somepony was very calm. They decided to go the relaxed way to not anger the Princess. They knew what they have and have not done, they were aware, but they decide to stay blunt.

"If there is more of us, where are they all? And how much of us is there? I need answers! Spike, take a note." The Princess was in deep thought about the horrifying situation. "Dear Princess Celestia, I am in my house with many Bread Stealers. They stole my panini, and Bread Stealers scare me. Your faithful new Princess, Twilight Sparkle," said Twilight.

"There is five of us in total dear, not counting you. If I counted you, there would be six," informed somepony.

Soon, 4 more shadowing figures appeared behind the somepony. they all had navy ninja suits, but because of the vivid features that didn't hide under the suit, Twilight figured out the identities pretty quickly with her incredible knowledge and fancy brain.

"I know all your identities and I am not afraid to let everypony know who you are! Pinkie Pie is definitely the one eating a strange looking cupcake, with strange looking frosting. Fluttershy is beside her, hiding her face and showing her animals instead," said Twilight. "I wonder why!"

"U-um... may-maybe y-you finished i-it, T-T-Twilight? Or... o-or m-maybe you j-just f-f-forgot it from the sh-shop..?" Fluttershy was petrified. After her sentence, she curled up in a ball behind Pinkie Pie and wailed quietly. Every animal did their best to comfort her, but Twilight's worst crime you could do is be a bread stealer.

"Applejack is beside Rainbow Dash, in the real back of the group. I see your hat Applejack, stop covering your snout with it, I see you are eating something. I hear it. It is crunchy... yes yes..." Even when she was a filly, Twilight was always a proud bread hoarder and collector. The most common types like white toast bread with grains would be eaten, because Twilight could always go to the shop to pickup more. However the more exotic and rare bread was special. If it was stolen, it would be on the front page of newspapers if Twilight made some. On the rare scale of 1—10, 1 being the most common and 10 being the ultimate rare, panini bread was a number 7, because it was only found in the 'Sweet Filly Bakers' bakery which is all the way in Fillydelphia. That was why, panini bread was rare for Twilight, and she could not live with the fact that a bread stealer took the rare good away from her.

"I'm eating an apple Twilight... It's not your probably-toasted panini sugarcube..." Applejack gulped. She knew if she denied the fact that Twilight thinks it's her, the purple alicorn will get mad and take her as a prime suspect of the crime.

"Rainbow, your mane is clear to see—"

"Because I'm awesome!" Rainbow Dash beamed. Twilight sighed, keeping a careful eye on the blue mare.

"And you—somepony—you are Rarity! Away from the herd aren't you?" Twilight started circling Rarity. A pony that is away from her herd usually has some explaining to do. Or is not involved in anything. But Twilight much preferred to hear the first option.

Silence roared the tree.

"Which one of you stole my bread? You all look suspicious to me!" yelled Twilight. Everypony glared at her. Rarity gulped and Pinkie Pie stayed quiet, with Fluttershy behind her, still crying softly. Applejack tried to get away but Rainbow Dash stopped her. Nopony dared to say a word, however speaking no words angered Twilight Sparkle.

"That is it. Own up now. I have enough magic to make your lives miserable forever! So if you own up now, I will banish your internet connection! If you don't, then I will make Equestria a nightmare. How? I am a Princess, and I can ban EVERYONE'S internet connection! You can't get away with anything under my watch." Twilight demanded answers from the five ponies in front of her.

"Darling, isn't there another option? Somepony could maybe fly over to Fillydelphia? Or we could all take you on a wonderful tour trip over there! You might get some lovely dresses there, and berets are really high in the fashion scale right now. Oh... and you will probably get some more bread! hehe..." Rarity smiled a bright smile at Twilight, but Twilight wasn't having it.

"No," she declared. "Now unleash yourself, you theif! Whoever you are, say you did it!" yelled Twilight.

Silence reigned, until one pony announced themselves guilty.

"I did it,"

"Rainbow Dash?!"

"What? You're bread looks awesome! And it tastes even more awesome..."

Twilight gasped in utter horror.

"How coULD YOU!" she belowed.

"Dude I'm sorry!"

"That's not enough for me! You KNEW that was special to me, Rainbow DASH!" Twilight's head began to turn more crimson at every word she spoke aloud.

"Take a chill pill, Twilight. Stop getting so worked up! I can fly over to Fillydelphia to get you some more. It's not a problem, egghead," reassured Rainbow Dash, but Twilight denied. She lectured Dash on the importance of not taking something that doesn't belong to you, while Rainbow Dash groaned and moaned, barely listening.

"I see you don't want to learn about friendship! Well in that case..." Twilight recited a spell from a brown, old book she garbbed from the near shelf. The magic became bigger as she spoke more words of the spell. Rainbow Dash sulked. One spell and her internet connection would be gone for a week. That's what she needed.

"Remember sugarcube. I love you. And I will be able to send you funny youtube videos again in a week. I'll be here, waiting until I can send them to you, I will have many ready when you have internet back." Applejack smiled at Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash got up and smiled back.

"I promise I will never take any bread from you again Twilight... Sorry," Dash's smile turned to a frown, and she sulked some more. Every pony knew she was keeping her word. Normally, she doesn't, but everypony knew that this time, she wasn't lying.

A few seconds passed and a magic spell was activated, and it banned her internet connection, and the ability for her to use anyone else's.

That night, Rainbow Dash was not online. And she wasn't online for a week. Twilight nearly cried that night because she banished her best friend's internet connection, but she knew it was for the bread's own good. She went back to sleep, after reading her pet dragon Spike a bed time story called 'Morals of Friendship". Twilight felt guilty, but she was now happy knowing the bread will not be stolen.

In the bright shine of day, somepony screamed.
