Anon - Luna Punishes Flash

>Just another day on the job...
>need to make sure these kids aren't out of line
>no paperwork today?
>great, breathing room
>...oh, right
>you're Vice-principle Luna
>and this may be a slightly more relaxing day than usual
>even though you arrived at Canterlot High a little late, this day doesn't seem to be too busy
>note to self, stop trying to party at night so much
>maybe that herbal tea Shining Armor told you about will calm your nerves
>you should make a cup of tea soon...
>nevertheless, this may be the one day at work where you-
>*CRASH*
>...have to deal with a student making a big mistake
>you look out of your nearby window to see a rather expensive looking car... rammed right into a wall
>you shouldn't have thought of anything
>you jinxed it
>wait, it seems some students were in that vehicle
>...why is one of them missing a shoe?
>hold on, you recognize these students
>two of them are easily recognizable
>Snips and Snails
>two pranksters who seem to absolutely enjoy ruining everyone's day
>this is their first time actually causing damage to school property, but still
>you cannot let them walk away like this
>wait, that one student missing a shoe
>tall man, blue hair, orange-ish skin, usually carries a guitar around
>what was his name...
>no matter, these students just caused major property damage to the school
>at least the wall didn't collapse
>the repairs should not be too costly
>now, onto business
>wasting no time, you leave your office and make your way outside
>there they are, arguing up a storm
>they seem to have not noticed your presence yet
>"H-hey Flash, no need to worry. We can just get out of here before anyone shows up! Right, Snails?"
>"Yeah, just don't get caught."
>the much taller student is getting more and more furious
>"Are you two out of your minds?! You make me almost skip school, make me crash into a wall, and now you think no one will catch us?! What if Vice Principle Luna finds out?"
"I'm not sure, why don't you ask her?"

>the three of them slowly turn their heads and give a fearful stare at you
>"V-v-vice principle Luna?"
>you keep a calm face on as they start to back away
"Well, to answer your question, I'm rather furious. You know there will be consequences for your actions, right?
>they don't respond, probably too frightened to say anything
>you point towards the front doors of the school
"My office. Now."
>they look towards the ground as all three of them march in front of you towards the school
>as you follow them, you analyze the damages
>hmm... you were correct
>moderate damages, repairs should be within the school's budget
>perhaps another lucky moment today
>...you are now wondering how it can get worse
>soon enough, you enter the school and come close to your office
>after pulling out a key, you walk passed the students and unlock your door
"In you go, you three. You all have a lot of explaining to do."
>the three of them slowly walk into your office
>guilt seems to be the only things being show on their faces
>you walk inside and take a seat at your desk
>the three of them don't even try to take a seat in one of the chairs in the room
>after an awkward minute of silence, you finally take command of the situation
"Now then, anyone care to explain just what happened outside today?"
>just then, Snips and Snails get on their knees and start crying
>"We're sorry! we didn't know this would happen! It was Snails' plan!"
>"What?! Me?! This was your plan! I just followed you!
>same old lines, same old lies
"Hmm... yes, this seems to be a common occurrence between you two. Always managing to be innocent, even though you're always in the vicinity of every problem going on in school."
>they continue to grovel on the floor as he third student still has his head down
"You, without the shoe."
>that seemed to have gotten his attention
>"Me?"
"Yes, you. What might your name be?"
>he scratches the back of his head as he tries to answer you
>"F-flash Sentry, ma'am."

>ma'am
>now you feel old
>at least you know this student's name now
"Flash Sentry... I don't seem to remember your name. I'm guessing you're not usually in trouble?"
>"N-no ma'am! Not at all!"
>he seems awfully nervous
>definitely his first time in your office
"A good student, hmm? If you really were as good as you say, I would only hear the truth come out of your mouth."
>you see him starting to sweat a little
"Why don't you tell me what transpired today? What events took place that lead to that automobile smashing into Canterlot High?"
>"Uh... well... you see..."
"I'm listening."
>"*sigh* I guess I can't run away from it. you see, Vice-Principle Luna... I was going to skip school. I was tricked... but it was still my decision."
>tricked into skipping school?
>this should be interesting
"What could have possibly made you want to act upon this?"
>"Well..."
>the two troublemakers start laughing slightly
>you give them a glare, shutting them up
>"When I went to my locker, I found a note slipped in. I opened it up and found it was a letter from... a girl I like."
"A girl?"
>"Yeah... I haven't seen her in quite a while, so I jumped at the chance to meet her. It said to meet her at Sugarcube Corner in an hour, and... well."
"You decided to skip school."
>"But it was... you're right, that's what happened."
>that's one part of the story down
>you know who slipped that note in
>that fact that he believed it is quite a shock to you
>there's no way Snips and Snails made a forgery that well crafted
>...right?
>anyway, now onto the main event
"So you decided to leave the school. Any reason why you took that car?"
>"Well, its my car, so..."
>that car belongs to a teenager?!
>sweet chocolate strawberries!
>who paid for that thing?!
>it must cost...
>you're getting off track here
>back on topic
"I see... since that was your car, accessing it was no problem. My biggest question, however, is actually quite simple."

>"Look, it wasn't my fault! I didn't mean to crash into the wall! I normally park by backing into a spot, so I just decided to put it into drive and-"
>this student is talking a mile a minute
>you need to stop him
"Flash Sentry!"
>he immediately stops talking
"One thing at a time. Now, I know you're simply trying to give me reasons why it wasn't your fault, but let's start from the top."
>he gives you a nod, signaling you to continue
"You were going to leave the school by car, yes?"
>he nods
"And you drive forwards out of a parking space, correct?
>another nod
"Now then, why did you crash into the wall?"
>he looks away before answering
>"Because... my foot was stuck on the gas pedal."
"...I beg your pardon?"
>"When I put my foot on the gas... I couldn't take it off."
>wait...
>what?
>that doesn't make any sense
>then again, he's still missing a shoe
"Was there a reason why?"
>he looks towards Snips and Snails
>"Ask them. They must have done something."
>you look towards the two idiots, who seem to be trying to hold back some laughter
"Well?"
>they immediately straighten up and look right at you
"Care to give us an explanation?"
>snips seems confident in what he's about to say
>"Well, you see, ma'am, I think Flash over there doesn't know his own strength and-"
>"We used superglue!"
>"Snails!"
>you can't figure if Snails was either too stupid to lie or just didn't want to make the situation worse
>...probably both
>"Yeah, we put superglue on the entire gas pedal because we thought it would be funny. It kinda was."
"...Why? What made you want to do this?!"
>"Snips and me saw it in a movie. Heh, it was funny."
>...that explains everything
>you look at Flash Sentry with a small smile
"Well that settles it! You're all in big trouble, but at least I know who to give the right punishments to."
>they all gulp at the sound of that

"Then again, I'm... a little busy at the moment. I'm sure Principle Celestia would love to hear about this story as well. Please, allow her to give the proper punishments. you know where her office is."
>they all give a sigh of relief
>if they think Celestia will go easy on them, they will be sadly mistaken
>you just want to relax right now
>giving punishments would mean paperwork
>you want to save that for later
>however... there's still something troubling you
"Before you all go, I do have one last question. Snips?"
>"Y-yes?"
"I saw all three of you get out of Flash Sentry's vehicle. If you were going to prank him like this, why did you two stay in the car with Flash?"
>"Heh heh... well... after we put the glue on, we were going to get out of there, but Flash kinda... came onto the scene a little early, so we-"
>"We hid inside his car so he wouldn't catch us."
>"Hey! That was my line!"
>so you were correct
>they're just idiots
>alright, time to get these students out of here
"Thank you for your cooperation. Celestia may be in her office right now. Tell her secretary that I sent you three. She will make time."
>and with that, the three of them finally left your office, giving you some peace and quiet
>*sigh*
>and here you thought this day would be uneventful
>those two should be expelled from this school
>that might give you peace of mind for once
>still, it was unfortunate for their victim to be guilty of their own crime as well
>oh well
>rules are rules
>now that this was taken care of, now what?
>...
>where did you put that tea packet?
