Scroll 13: When Sriracha Isn't Enough [visual]
[Saori honestly wanted a normal day off but nope that was going to happen. Yes, she does take days off now, mostly because everyone at the shop both employees and some customers felt she needed it. Except now the scroll shows the house Saori purchased and ....ponies in hazmat suits? Saori isn't even aware the scroll is on and is talking to a unicorn with a clipboard floating next to him.]
You can't be serious! You can't just seal up my home!
Very sorry, ma'am but we have received complaints from your neighbors about their eyes feeling like they're burning and they say it's something coming from your house. It's our duty to clear out the source of the irritant. Now I must ask you one more time. What were you making?
[She glares the unicorn. In the background, a phoenix, two dogs and a cat all begin to harass the hazmat team with barking, snarling and an occasional peck or three.]....Hot sauce, okay?! I was making several batches of my own hot sauce before the winter season kicks in. Now if you excuse me, my progress is being severely hampered by this yellow tape of yours. Let me back into my house now and DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY HOT SAUCE!
[She's about to storm through to get to her house but the supervisor blocks her path. One of the supervisor's assistants looks at Saori.] Hey, wait a second, aren't you the owner of that tea house that did that ban on pumpkin spice lates?
[She looks rather indignant and snorts.] Okay so I had to give up the ban after a week, happy? Besides, the winter seasonal flavors are better anyway. Yeah that's right you heard me! [The three began to argue amongst each other and then the scroll closes.]

[Around thirty seconds later, there is a bright flash out in front of the house as Celestia teleports in, wearing her golden Princess regalia momentarily borrowed from her native self.]
[It's technically not impersonation, since it's still herself. Kind of. She starts up her Royal Canterlot Voice and calls into the house.]
By order of the Princess, this investigation is to be ceased immediately.
[Text]
[The entire hazmat team rushes out and bows to her. In the meantime, Saori manages to sneak her way back into the house. The sauce was more or less done but just needed to be bottled up to go. Honestly five bottles as gift seemed like overkill considering a little goes a long way, but hey it's worth it.]
Princess, pardon me for asking but why must the investigation be ceased? We've received multiple complaints from neighbors and it only seems fair to stop it from escalating into something worse.
[Action]
This activity is being conducted under my commission. I was not aware of the fumes it would cause, but it shall be completed shortly and I shall have Cloudsdale schedule winds in this area to address the complaints. I thank you for staying on top of your responsibilities, but no further action from you will be required.
[Action]
U-understood and thank you, your Majesty! You heard her, team move out! Our work here is done.
[Sure enough, they cleared out of there in a heartbeat. It was only then when Saori, the two dogs, a cat and a phoenix did emerge from the house. A wooden caddy filled with ten bottles of hot sauce floated after them.]
Thank you very much for that. I was afraid of my hard work going up in smoke right there. And as promised, here's some of my hot sauce. Trust me when I say a little bit goes a long way.
[Action]
It was my pleasure. It's been a long time since I've done something like that.
[Celestia helps herself to just two of the bottles. If the smell is any indication, that much will last her quite a while.]
I look forward to trying it out. First, however, I should stick to my word and do something about the smell. Wouldn't want further complaints bringing them back.
