Discipline centers by Anon (10/11/2016) https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/28791909/#q28847592 --- >Princess Celestia issued a new decree >from no one Ponies of Equestira must be held responsible for their actions. >There have been a lot of destruction of property, and criminals activities that went unpunished. >From this day forward any pony breaks the rules would be reported to their local discipline center. >there the Judging community would pick the proper form of disciplinary action and execute them. >Everypony that did break the law would get a free pass for now. but any future incident would be dealt with severe consequences. >the constructions of these centers would be effective immediately. >few weeks from this royal decree . each town and city in all over equestria got a discipline center. ... AB running a dangerous route alone, only I think that should take place outside of a discipline center. A good switch held in Applejack's mouth should do the trick. >after appleJack caught up with applebloom and escorted her to safety. >she was relived that her sister was ok. and kinda amazed that she managed to deliver the cart in one piece. >they made the delivery there. >as the hillbilly ponies were enjoying the pies. >AJ said" Just remember you wont be enjoying these pies if it weren't for my little sister." >And my sister. >But this don't change the fact that trying to make this delivery on your own was a plum crazy thing to do. >applebloom lowered her head in shame "i know" >disobeying your big sister, sneaking out while being grounded. >but.. I did deliver the pies.. >You did and it was mighty impressive. but that doesn't mean you wont get punished for what you did. >I said I'm sorry. >sorry wont cut it... I cannot ground you , cause you are already grounded. >so no broccoli for a week ? >applejack narrowed her eyes at her sister's sassy remark. >you know what, I'll let the judges in the discipline center decide the proper punishment for you. >no .. not them it will be embarrassing.. >you should have thought of that before getting yourself in danger. After they head back to ponyville applejack dragged AB to the discipline center. >there was a long line there, each pony got their number to be seen by the judging comity. >after long wait their number was up and they went to talk to him. >Aj explained what applebloom did , then listened to what AB part of the story. >the judge took a short moment of thinking then decided the proper punishment. >he went and opened a cupboard, and pulled out a cane. >appleboom trembled in fear when she saw that cane. the judge went ahead and gave it to AJ. >give her twelve strokes on hind . >applejack was unsure about this and hesitant to take the cane. >she lowered her voice and said "don't you think that's a little bit much?" >miss this is the law and you have to obey it like everyone else. >he pulled a documented paper of her case and stamped it. >now it is official. >applejack felt that the matter was getting out of her hooves. >she took the cane and looked at applebloom. >her little sister was kinda afraid of what's gonna happen to her. >she was breathing fast and starting to sweat. >Applejack couldn't bare the look at her sister and dropped the cane. >she went there and hugged her little sister. >I aint gonna do this. >miss applejack mind I remind you that you are directly disobeying the law. >I don't care. I'm going to take my sister and go home. >as she was leaving the guards stood in front of applejack. >miss for directly disobeying the disciplinary comity you will be punished instead of your sister. and you will be placed on the stocks. >one of the gaurds escorted applebloom out. >the other one escorted AJ to the disciplinary room. >there she was instructed to lay on a bench and wait. >minutes later. a pony came wearing the official discipline center uniform holding a cane in his mouth. >he carried out her punishment. >He cut her 12 times as instructed. >the strokes left a mark on her butt. >she was then escorted out of the center and got placed on the wooden stocks midtown. sorry for rushing in like that >applebloom's guilt was eating her alive. >seeing her sister suffer all caused of her. >she visited and stayed with her stocked sister. >she cried and said that she was sorry. >applejack reassured her little sister that its ok, and its not a big of a deal. >but applebloom was still feeling guilty. >applejack stayed in her stocks from noon till dawn. >then she was released. ... >you are anon >you have been hired to be the judge in the in the newly opened Disciplinary center. >it was an official establishment issued by the princess herself. >the reason behind it is to raise awareness of consequences and to lower the "incidents" rates. >many ponies in the past got away with criminal and destructive behaviors due to lack of proper punishment system. >so there you are inside one of the new established building. >at the first 2 weeks there wasn't many incident reports and it was the good life. >on your 3rd week the amount of reported incidents rose up. >one of these reports was about a clumsy Pegasus that caused the construction of a new bridge to collapse. >it was her fault and there was no excuse for it. >you decided that A1 - send her to the stocks. A2 - 30 smacks on her behind. A3 - get her fired from her job. >another case of stealing. a unicorn used his magic to teleport stuff to his bag. he already sold all the goods. B1 - make him pay for all the stolen good, and work for the missing ones. B2 - public stocks for him. B3 - make him wear the magic muffler for a 2 months. >these were the good old times. >when you get actual cases. >but few months later. >these incidents reports have been lowered drastically >now most of your cases are minor stuff. >and mostly fillies problems. >one of your frequent customer is the school teacher. >she's there almost 3 times a week. >reporting children to you. >you ended up being foal sitter... than a judge. >one of these reports was about 2 little foals a filly named Red june and the other one was a colt carrot Crunch. these two foals were fighting with each other. Red June did swear at Carrot. and carrot did tease her earlier for failing the running race. >remembering this case made you sigh.. this is what my job turned into. instead of doing important and powerful disciplinary actions now you ended up with the verdicts like C1 : issue mouth soaping for Red June. C2 : Take Red june over your knee and spank her yourself. C3 : let her write I'm sorry for swearing and fighting to Carrot crunch. and issued D1 : 5 hits with a ruler on the top of his hooves. D2 : take him over your knee and spank him. D3 : make him sit on the naughty stool in class. >compared to what you used to deal with these verdicts were nothing. >and here you are sitting on your disk. waiting for the next report... the end? -- forgot to mention that you pick one of these punishment as you read. like A2 then B2 ...etc that's is how imagined how the scenarios go with that set up.
