Note: M is MLP_TheMayor. P is MLP_Pyro. L is MLP_Lemony. TB is MLP_TwiBot. K is MLP_Kanmeros. F is MLP_Flint
Mayor: *sorts the complaint file* Oh that's a new one @mlp_pyro, Rainbow, Pinkie, @mlp_TheSniper

M: *Places the form in a green folder on her desk.* @mlp_Pyro is next.*Reads the complaint.* Oh that was naughty.

M: And that one too.Oh this should go to the @mlp_guardpony but he is such a sweet pony. I will talk to him first.

Pyro: *Sneezes*

M: Sends a TB to @mlp_pyro. If you are free I wish to talk.@MLP_TheMayor

P: *Get a TB* *Reads* Uhh... apparently @mlp_TheMayor wants to talk to me?

Lemony: *o_o* What do you think it's about?

P: Something good I hope! We should take the waffles to go and head on over to..... where is she? I've never met her!

L: The town hall?

P: *Shrugs* Probably. *Sends his new Tweet Phoenix to@mlp_themayor saying he and @mlp_lemony shall be there soon*

M: *Unlocks the door. Sees @mlp_pyro's Impressive TB.* I do love the smell of burning paperwork.

P: *Has easily fireproofed his note for @mlp_themayor*

M: *Returns @mlp_pyro's note.* I will be in my office please come on in.

L: *the waiterpony brings their waffles* Nummy! *nomnomnom*

P: Let's take 'em to go Lems. Maybe the mayor would like one!

L: *asks for a box togo* Sure! *pays*

P: Off we go then! *Gets his TP back* She says to just walk right on in...

L: *puts the waffles in her saddle bag and walks outside* You know I've never met @MLP_TheMayor, or seen her for that matter..........

P: Neither have I! *Follows*

L: *stops for a moment* /Where/ is city hall?

P: No clue! *Walks in a random direction*

L: *spots a large building in the center of town* That might be it!

P: Well let's go towards it!

L: *goes towards it*

P: *Also goes towards it*

L: *walks into the lobby and goes to the desk* We have an appointment with the Mayor!

M: *@mlp_Lemony gets directions to the top where the Mayors office is.*

P: *Thanks the pony who gives them directions and heads to the top* Let's do this!

L: *follows the directions to @MLP_TheMayor's office*

P: *Knocks, then enters @mlp_TheMayor's office* Hello? We're here!

M: Welcome @mlp_pyro, @mlp_Lemony come in have a seat

P: *Has a seat*

L: *"She knows our names! What trickery is this!?"* *takes a seat* Hello maim!

M: *smiles at the colt and filly* Do you know why I asked you here@mlp_pyro?

P: No clue. All I know is that we brought waffles! ....you kinda disturbed us in the middle of dinner...

L: *feels like she's at the principals office*

P: *Waves to @mlp_Kanmeros*

L: *looks over at @mlp_Kanmeros and waves*

M: I am sorry to have interrupted your meal @mlp_pyro. There have been complaints and before I turned it over to the guardponies I Wanted to talk it over with you. (they have food my one weakness how did they know!)

P: Complaints? About what? *Pulls out the waffles from Lemony's bag* Excuse me for this , but I am hungry... *Noms quietly*

L: *mentally begins plotting their escape root, and where she'll be hiding Pyro over the next few weeks*

M: (Oh sweet @mlp_Celestia waffles..) Well a Pegacoach driver said you were rude to him and set his coach on fire.

L: *also a method of sneaking him food without being followed*

P: *Faux, his Tweet Phoenix, takes perch on a high shelf, being careful around the papers*

P: That... wasn't even in Ponyville. Anyways, we were on our way back from Canterlot for the Hot Cocoa Social. The driver kept slowing down so I asked him quite a few times to speed it up a bit. Yes, my tone got a bit high, but the flight kept getting slower and I was peeved. /HE/ got annoyed so he dumped me and Lemony in a barren field!

M: I got the complaint..I think @mlp_Luna handles the Canterlot complains if you wish me to forward it to her?

P: /THAT/... won't be necessary! Anyways, he was flying away and wouldn't come back for us, so I fireproofed his coach and lit it on fire to try and catch his attention. He didn't bother trying anything to save it and just dropped it on the ground!

L: *"I could hide him in that spot under the floorboard where I hide those crystals, but that would be too obvious! I could also find a spot in the Everfree forest to hide him for awhile"* *hums a tune*

M: My little pony @mlp_pyro, annoyed is what happens when a filing cabinet sticks shut. You set this poor ponies coach aflame.

P: *Hopes Lemony isn't planning anything bad* *Noms another waffle... right in front of @mlp_TheMayor*

P: To get his attention! I was hoping he would land it, then we could have talked like colts!

M: Did you tell him it was fire proofed?

P: I wasn't able to!

M: *shakes her head.* Ok I will see what I can do. If I can get him to accept restitution for the damaged coach will you pay it?

P: I'll pay for the trip, but /technically/, he destroyed the coach himself!

M: *sips her tea.* I you would need a VERY good lawyer to get that one past a judge. Those are even more expensive than a coach.

P: Want a waffle?

M: I would love one @mlp_pyro, Thank you.

P: In no way did I harm the coach. It was fully fireproofed!

M: The problem is the reasonable pony test @mlp_pyro. If you do something that a reasonable pony would think is dangerous, you are responsible for any injuries or damage that result from your actions. I am trying to help.

P: *Counters* Would a reasonable pony drop his flaming coach when he knows there are to ponies almost /directly/ below him?

M: *Nibbles on the waffle.*

P: *Faux, for some reason, seems quite restless*

M: Fire is a primal fear @mlp_pyro. Please work with me on this.

L: My I'm hungry! I need a snack! *her horn glows and she spawns a small lemon which plops in her lap*

P: *Looks at Lemony* Uhh... there /are/ waffles!

L: No thanks! I need my vitamin C fix! *the lemon has a small pin on it which she conceals*

P: *Looks from @mlp_TheMayor to @mlp_Lemony, then back* The other problem is..uh... just a sec. Lems, what are you doing?

L: I'm not doing anything honey! *appleliar face* *is also sweating profoundly*

M: Ah, @mlp_pyro would you be willing to work off the debt..if we could arrange a settlement?

P: *Sighs* Yeah. Sure. I guess. Maybe I can give him a firework show for free?

L: *yawns and casually puts her arm around @mlp_pyro*

M: @mlp_pyro I was thinking of Ponyville. The years turning will be upon us. It would be nice if we had fireworks to celebrate.

L: NOW! *pulls the pin on the lemon and throws it across the room. Grabs @mlp_pyro and jumps out the window as the lemon creates a harmless lemon scented explosion* I WON'T HAVE YOU GOTO JAIL! *falls in slow-motion from the explosion*

P: *Is grabbed and dragged by @mlp_Lemony* GUAAAAAHHH!!!

M: And now they broke my window..

L: *hits the ground with a tuck and roll* *does not look at the cool yellow explosion coming from @MLP_TheMayor's office* *says a incredibly lame one-liner and takes off running with@mlp_pyro*

P: /Where are we goooooiiiing?!?!/

L: /SOMEWHERE!/

M: Well @mlp_Kanmeros lets go see if they hurt themselves. *Trots down the three stories from her office*

L: *runs off out of town and keeps running*

P: *Continues being dragged*

-------------------------------

K: .@mlp_themayor are ponies always like this?

M: Not always but often enough @mlp_Kanmeros. *sighs* I do not know if this is worth calling @Mlp_MareDoWell.

TB: *trots into town for the evening, the Treebrary having closed* Hello@mlp_themayor.

M: Hello @mlp_Twibot.

TB: *glances at the broken window* What happened? Did somepony break in?

M: Out @mlp_Twibot. I do not know what got into her.

TB: Out? I do not understand. Why would anypony escape out a third story window?

M: What was that line @mlp_twilight uses. All the ponies in this town are insane?

TB: Crazy, @mlp_themayor. All the ponies in this town are crazy.

------------------------------------

P: *Keeps being dragged* *Nothing stops an enraged Lemony*

L: *runs into the Everfree forest* We need to hide out here for a few weeks! Until the heats off!

P: *Blinkblinks* And we were doing so well too...

L: *>>.>>.........<<.<<.........* Sure the Mayor was acting all nice and agreeable! But she was just waiting to hire her high-end lawyers! Then she bribes the judge and you goto a dark dirty jailcell for life! AND LEAVE ME ALL ALONE!!!

P: I... really doubt that Lems... *@mlp_Faux finally catches up to them* Hi there!

L: *picks up @mlp_Faux and examines him* CHECK HIM FOR BUGS!!!!!

P: Wha-? He's a phoenix! Bugs won't survive on his skin!

L: You never know what /THE COLT/ is capable of!

P: *Facehoof*

L: *picks off a small bit of something that is most likely dirt* SEE??!?!

P: *Sighs* Great. Now she's probably alerted the @mlp_GuardPony....

L: She was going to do that anyway! I saved you!

P: We were just about to make a deal for the pegacoach driver!

L: I didn't trust that pony! She was /way/ too nice!

P: She was nice so she could get a waffle. I saw the way she was eyeing them!

M: ((@mlp_pyro You left the waffles! ^_^))

P: @mlp_TheMayor ((0.o' Ah hayseeds!))

L: I /still/ say she was out to get you!

P: *@mlp_faux settles in a tree to keep watch* Great... so what now? We're fugitives from the law!

M: Sends a tb to @mlp_pyro. Despite your exit, would you be willing to put on a fireworks show on the 31st. in exchange for a settlement?

L: *grabs @MLP_TheMayor's tweetbird and reads it* OBVIOUS TRAP! *rips it* ((not the bird))

L: Don't worry, we can live a totally normal life as fugitives!

P: .... how is that normal?!

L: We'll find a way! Now for dinner! We can go find something, or we can eat yummy lemons! * spawns a lemon and sucks on it*

P: *Sighs* ...just give me a lemon...

L: *passes Pyro a lemon*

F: @mlp_Lemony @mlp_pyro And just what are you two doing out here?

P: *Instinctivly throws the lemon straight at @mlp_Flint* /Who are you and how do you know our names?!?!/

L: HE'S OUT TO GET US! HE'S A DOUBLE AGENT! *grabs Pyro and runs deeper into the forest*

P: GUAH! *Is dragged once again, @mlp_Faux following*

F: Wait-- *Gets hit in the face with a lemon*

P: =_= Will you stop doing that?!

L: *does a roll and hides into a bunch of bushes* SHI SHI SHAW! *hides very well in a group of bushes* Shhhhhh!

P: *Headground* This won't go well....

L: *whispers to Pyro* We need to sneak away and find shelter! *ninja rolls through the underbrush*

L: *her and @mlp_pyro fins a large empty hollowed out tree* See! I knew we would find shelter!

L: *rolls around in mud for camouflage*

L: *gets out of the mud* Now we need to make this place more homey! *grabs a large chunck of wood lying on the ground* A door!

L: *props the "door" against the large opening in the tree*

P: How long are we going to be out here?

L: No clue!

P: How deep in the forest are we? I doubt even @mlp_MareDoWell could find us out here!

L: Yes! We are well hidden!

P: *Sighs* Next thing you know, there'll be a witch who wants to befriend every pony living out here all alone!

L: Well hopefully we won't run into anymore ponies tonight!

P: I hope you're right Lems. For our sake, I really do. *Starts a small, safe fire for warmth*

L: *puts curtains made of leaves on the "windows" of the tree-hut-thing* Good thing I always know where my towel is! *wraps herself*

P: Towel? Oh no! @mlp_Faux! Go get my towel! *Faux flies off back to their home*

L: *wraps her head* I'm warm!

P: *Faux comes back with a now very warm towel* *Wraps himself in it* Same here!

L: Sooooo......Still hungry? *spawns more lemons*

P: Actually, I'm- *Falls into a deep sleep*

L: *puts @mlp_pyro in the tree house and wraps him in the towel* Night sweetie! *goes around to plant non-lethal traps around their tree house*

L: A net trap here! A mud pit there! and several trip lemons-nades her her and here!

L: ((Yes: the exploding pin grenade lemons are now and forever called "Lemon-nades"))

L: *pulls out a detailed map of the traps and gives it to @mlp_pyrowhile he sleeps*

L: *then goes around and hunts for other non-lemon food*

L: *sees a chicken* Oh eggs for breakfast! *grabs it with magic*

L: *constructs a small cage (but comfortable) for the chicken so she can harvest eggs*

L: *covers her and @mlp_pyro's tracks so they are not found a easily*

L: *after covering her tracks and catches several items for food goes and cuddles with @mlp_pyro*

L: They'll /never/ separate us!*falls asleep wrapped an a warm towel*
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...........*has trained her snoring to be quieter*

---------------------------

TB: *sighs and examines the tracks* @mlp_themayor, they seem to have gone toward the forest.

M: I was afraid of that @mlp_Twibot. @mlp_Lemony could be facing vandalism charges. I am not sure if @mlp_pyro is guilty of anything here.

TB: How did he react when @mlp_Lemony did this? He may simply have been pulled along for the ride.

M: He screamed..not quite like a little filly @mlp_Twibot. *Sighs* Want to help me fill out a report for @mlp_guardpony?

TB: I see. I think it likely that he had no idea what was about to happen. I will help you with the report, if you want.

M: I would appreciate it @mlp_Twibot. Being one of the involved parties it might be seen as biased for me to write out my own report.

TB: *trots with @mlp_themayor to write a report* Which makes the situation even stranger.

M: *Trots into town hall and finds the appropriate paperwork* I should start with the statement that neither @mlp_Lemony or @mlp_pyrowere detained in any way.

TB: *has a quill and parchment at the ready* At about what time did this occur?

M: *Nods at @mlp_Twibot* I wanted to talk to @mlp_pyro concerning some complaints. I sent him a message about 2.5 hours ago.

TB: *writing it down* Invited @mlp_pyro to her office at approximately 01:00 to speak about complaints. I think the contents of the compaints are rather irrelevant to the matter at hand. Go on?

M: As @mlp_pyro and I discussed the issue @mlp_Lemony began to behave oddly. She said she was hungry but refused to eat any of the waffles they had brought with them. She created a lemon with her magic. @mlp_pyro and I had just about come to an agreement. when she threw the lemon across the room where it exploded. It was at this point @mlp_Lemony grabbed @mlp_pyroand exited out my window.

TB: Explosive lemon most likely employed as a distraction to cover window escape. Alright. Then you came down out of town hall to find them?

M: Yes, I took the stairs. When I arrived at the ground floor they were both gone. I think @mlp_Goldenflame saw their escape from the ground.

TB: *writes down this last part including the repair that was done to the window, and the direction the tracks lead* Alright, how is this? *gives @mlp_themayor the report*

M: *reviews @mlp_Twibot's Report* That seems to cover it I have to send this off to @mlp_guardpony.

TB: Well, I think I should get back to the treebrary. Unless there's something else?

M: No, thank you for your help @mlp_Twibot. This little escapade has just doubled my work for the coming day I should turn in myself.

TB: *Nods* Goodnight, Madam Mayor. *trots home* ((Goodnight!))

M: *hoofwaves to @mlp_Twibot.*
