  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER TWELVE:It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Murder A scream had broken out over the silent night, heighten to a great degree by magic. The three mares had all jumped simultaneously as if the enhanced scream was a loud explosion. “HELP! THERE’S A BEEN A ATTACK!” the same voice boomed again. Without so much as a word Star Catcher had took flight, “H-Hey wait up!” Sparkleworks shouted as she galloped after her. Whistle was hot on her trail, jumping and ducking over various ponies who all heard the scream but remained frozen in place. Whistle caught up

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER FIFTEEN:The Heart Breaking News Minty popped a peppermint stick into her mouth and tossed the wrapper aside as she took up a stirring spoon, as well as the morning paper. As she stirred some kind of orange liquid in a large beaker she read the paper aloud in her mind. “Victim in worse shape than the last---a week later and no new leads---yada yada yada---Celestia arrives to personally lend aid..” she laid the newspaper down, eyes dead centered on the front page’s photo. She didn’t know the pony but the sadness of lost was felt as if she had. “Lily ha

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER THREE:Talking To Minty It was early in the morning, Whistle and Sparkleworks were eating breakfast at a diner they frequent. Sparkleworks had caught Whistle sneaking back in after dawn and scolded her for sneaking out. “How was I supposed to know you were at the door?” spoke Whistle just as a waitress handed them their food. “Well do you ever get the morning mail? I’m going to have a bruise for weeks..” Sparkleworks barely looked at Whistle as she said this. Instead she was nose deep into her plate of eggs. The usual breakfast they had was quite h

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER FOUR:The Picnic Whistle thought the talk with Minty had went over pretty well, now she only needed to wait for the picnic to see whether or not Malty is really Minty’s mother. She was confident she wasn’t but the thought of possibly meeting Minty’s mother was eating away at her more than not meeting Malty herself. Tuesday came and went rather fast with little to no excitement, minus Whistle running into an old friend who was in town visiting her father. “So are you in town for the whole week?” Whistle had asked during a dinner her friend had generously

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER FIVE:Something's Odd About Minty On her way back to the shop Tropical Dream was reflecting on the fun she just had, “Oh Minty, you really should’ve been there” she spoke, closing the front door behind her. Levitating her saddlebag on a table she helped herself to a small cupcake, trotted around the front counter and opened the cash register. She shrugged and closed the empty register and took from a bottom shelf a notepad, then after a quick glance she laid it on the counter. “Well, no customers and the schedule seems empty. Hey Minty!” she called

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER TWENTY ONE:The Horror Of A Relapse Standing in her doorway was Whistle and it only took a quick glance before Sparkleworks saw something was wrong. Whistle just stood there, staring, her body shook ever so slightly. When she made a motion to move Whistle galloped and threw herself into Sparkleworks’ lap where she cried heavily. Sparkleworks was at a lost for words but her motherly instincts had kicked in as she held Whistle, she rubbed the back of her friend’s head and offered comforting words. But Whistle cried on and it was evident something must had happened other th

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER TWENTY TWO:The Confrontation Whistle couldn’t sleep, all she could do was trot back and forth in the hospital's waiting room. They had brought Minty in over two hours ago and she was taken into immediate surgery. The others thought she really had been in some sort of fight but Whistle thought maybe the whole changing back and forth is starting to take it’s toll on her, the thing that had made her think this was an black eye being in the same exact place as Minty’s last black eye. Whistle couldn’t bear this waiting, to her it was the ultimate torture and

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER THIRTEEN:Nothing Fancy, Just Dinner Four days had passed since Edward’s murder and neither Amethyst nor Malty had yet been found. Despite Star Catcher’s best efforts to stop news of the event from spreading it had been leaked out and now the whole city knew. Rumors and gossip had started up almost like a bug infestation and soon enough it had reached outside the city, Star Catcher’s efforts to solve the crime now became much more important than her duties as mayor. It was going on past four thirty and Whistle couldn’t help but hear every little word as she t

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER SIX:Roll, Stumble, Lessons “What do you mean Minty requested the investigation to stop?!” shouted Sparkleworks. She and Whistle were sitting inside Star Catcher’s office. The walls were newly painted purple, the dark red carpet was newly finished and on both sides there were bookshelves that reached the ceiling. On the walls were photos of past guard captains, one of whom had a golden head piece centered to the right of Star Catcher’s desk which was placed in front of a large window that hung slightly open. Star Catcher, whose desk was so neatly set up it wo

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER TWENTY:It Gets Worse, And Then Terrible “OK, let me ask very clearly...” started Star Catcher who trotted around a small circuital room. Her friends Minty, Whistle, Tropical Dream, and Lily sat at a table in the center of the room. Sparkleworks stood against an glass stained wall which was the only thing that stood out against the rest of the room which was dull and metallic. Star Catcher took a seat and crossed her hooves as she looked over her friends intensely. “Have any of you seen Malty in the last twenty four hours?” she asked them. At her question th

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER FOUTHTEEN:Breakfast, Take Two It was Friday morning and as usual, Whistle and Sparkleworks were having their weekly breakfast together. However, there was one difference today that was in the form of a friend that Whistle had decided to bring. Sitting at the table with her was Malty, she was in a little bit of a death stare with Sparkleworks who sat straight across from them. Whistle had thought that this would help both mares get along, and to prove Malty wasn’t Amethyst but she hadn’t brought up that little detail just yet. What she had brought up though, was probably

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER EIGHT:A Unexpected Visit It was early in the afternoon and Minty was hard at work in her shop. Most of the front room was decorated for the Holiday, candy in the shapes of beautiful trees were centered atop the tables with tiny pony dolls resembling Minty’s friends huddled underneath them. Instead of tinsel there were licorice and taffy hung about the walls, both of which had shimmering red and green colors. Placed among the windows were her personal favorite candy, peppermints that were all different shapes and sizes and one was even shaped as a star with a diamond centered

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER TWENTY THREE:Amethyst’s Wish “Dear Minty, if you’re reading this then I have no doubt that I have died. Now, I know you were never a fan of my chosen speech so for this letter I shall write normally. Minty, I miss you greatly. You just snorted didn’t you? Yeah, I can imagine this isn’t quite what you had expected. So many years of being apart, I wouldn’t be surprised if you’d just ripped this up and threw it away at the first few words. But if you’re still reading, thank you my child. I’m writing this to be somewhat of an will,

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER NINE:A Typical, Non Busy Day It was a quarter past noon, Tropical Dream and Lily were in the kitchen to clean and dust it to be shiny and make it look brand new. The two seemed to get along well and wouldn’t stop talking. Minty, who was in her candy lab, had taken to earmuffs to get some peace and quiet. She yawned and shook herself awake before pouring some green liquid into a large beaker. She didn’t slept well last night as her mind was plagued with images and thoughts that had made sleeping near impossible. What had Tropical Dream and her mother been talking about?

  The Bizarre Case Of Minty And Malty  by Speedy  CHAPTER SIXTEEN:Malty And Minty’s Secret *Knock* *knock* *knock*  “Malty, are you home?” asked Whistle who looked rather down. She waited patiently as she trotted back and forth past the door before she knocked once more. “Are you there?? Have you heard about Amethyst? H-e-l-l-o-!” Whistle pressed herself up against the door and accidentally turned the knob, she fell but luckily her wings had flapped open and she hovered above the floor. As she hopped inside she immediately felt an icy chill that felt so cold her mind instantly reverted back to Winter. Sh
