Papillon

France, 1938

Two stallions were walking to a warden at a jail. They were outside, near the exit where all the prisoners were lined up.

Police ngựa con, ngựa, pony 54: All present, and accounted for sir.
Warden: Thank you.
Police ngựa con, ngựa, pony 95: *Playing drums for five seconds*
Warden: As of this moment, bạn will all be transferred to another prison, far from here. Everypony living in France no longer has to worry about you. Forget France. She has gotten rid of you.

Then the warden walked down a crowded street, while soldiers, and police ponies escorted the prisoners to the harbor where they would board a ship to another prison.

Innocent Ponies: *Watching prisoners*
Soldiers: *Pointing súng at prisoners*
Movie Pony: *Filming prisoners on a rooftop*
Prisoner 44: *Carrying a bag*
Prisoner 41: *Lighting a cigarette, and smoking it*
Papillon: *Walking tiếp theo to two other prisoners*
Mare: *Walking tiếp theo to prisoners* Papillon. Papillon!
Papillon: *Looks at mare*
Mare: You'll be back Papillon. You'll be back.
Papillon: *Looks phía trước, chuyển tiếp again as he continues walking with the other prisoners*
Prisoner 49: No bạn won't.
Papillon: *Looks at his con bướm, bướm tattoo*

The prisoners got on the ship, and they were heading for the new prison.

Prisoner 54: *Walking down the stairs*
Guard: bạn go to the left.
Prisoner 54: *Goes left*
Guard: bạn two go right.
Prisoners: *Go right*
Guard: Hurry up, let's keep this moving!
Papillon: *Walks down the stairs*
Gaurd: Go left.
Papillon: *Goes left*

After finding out where they were going to sleep, the prisoners went to the outside section of the ship, and were getting bread, and water. It was raining while they were getting their bread, and water.

Papillon: *Sits tiếp theo to a railing*
Louis: *Sits tiếp theo to Papillon* Do bạn mind?
Papillon: Not at all.
Louis: Good. It's great to make new friends.
Papillon: What did bạn get in trouble for?
Louis: Counterfeit. I was the best until they caught me in the act. And you?
Papillon: I'm a safecracker, but I got framed for killing a pimp.
Louis: How long have bạn been in prison for?
Papillon: Seven years. How about you?
Louis: Four. I almost got in jail once in 1928, but I was able to get away from the cops as they were trying to put the cuffs on me.
Papillon: Swell. I wish I could've done that.
Louis: Not to change the subject, but how many other ponies have bạn met here?
Papillon: Not many. You're the first one I talked to.
Louis: Well then bạn better follow me.

Louis took him inside the ship, and they saw two other prisoners named Frank, and Johnny.

Frank: Hey. *Looks at Papillon* Who's this guy?
Louis: A friend. I just met him, his name is Papillon.
Papillon: Pleased to meet bạn guys.
Johnny: Your name is Butterfly?
Papillon: Is it?
Frank: papillon is french for butterfly, ain't it?
Papillon: Yeah.
Johnny: Why Papillon?
Papillon: *Stands on his hind legs, and shows his con bướm, bướm tattoo* I made it myself when I was celebrating my fifth năm in prison.
Johnny: What side of the ship do bạn sleep on?
Papillon: The left.
Louis: So do we.
Frank: Will bạn sleep near us? We would like another ngựa con, ngựa, pony to tham gia us.
Papillon: Sure.

papillon made three Những người bạn on the ship. They didn't know where they were heading, but they did know that the trip would take at least three days.
