“What do you mean I can’t buy a new one and you’re going to confiscate my current crossbow?” Daring do yelled at the sales pony.
“I’m sorry Ms. Do buy your permit has expired by.” The shop owner looked at it again. “ Just a few days sadly. Get it fixed and I can give yours back but legally I have to hold it, you have a year before I can sell it off.”
Daring Do did not have time for this. After finally working up the courage to leave her house again it now felt like the entire town was watching her every move. The only pony she could trust was Rainbow Dash but she hadn’t found anything unusual.
“Hi Daring Do, I’m…” Twilight was cut off by a hoof to the face. “Oww!”
Daring had immediate attacked the unknown purple pony poised precariously on her porch. “Who are you? Who do you work for? How do you know my real name?”
“Um A.K. You’re attacking Twilight.” Rainbow dash cringed at what she had just witnessed.
“Oh my gosh princess I am so sorry.” Darring helped her up and brushed her off. “I’ve just been so on edge lately. It feels like somepony has been following me.”
“Really we’ve been keeping an eye on you for weeks but haven’t seen anything suspicious.” Pinkie popped in out of nowhere.
Daring sighed. “It’s worse than I thought then. Maybe I should just move back to the woods…” it took a moment for her brain to catch up. “Wait what did you just say?”
“Oh Pinkie was just talking about how we have been following you around. See I’m working on your autobiography.” Twilight rubbed her swelling cheek and tried to smile.
“You’re the pony that’s been following me around?!” She flapped her wings.
“Well yeah how else will I learn about you in a natural environment?” Twilight completely missed how this wasn’t normal. “I’m one of your biggest fans you know.”
Daring Do’s brain shut down. Without a word she opened her door, walked inside, and slammed it shut.
“What’s up with her?” Pinkie asked while Twilight and Rainbow shrugged.
End?
