"126, 127, 128, 129, 130!" Spike said as he looked up the pile of books he had just been counting.
"You still have one more room to count," Twilight chuckled.
At that moment, Rarity and Rainbow Dash rushed into the room. "Trixie's back!" screamed Rarity, as she put her hoof to her forehead, as if she was about to faint.
"And she's as loud-mouthed as ever!" added Rainbow.
"Don't worry, girls," said Twilight. "I'm sure Trixie learned her lesson the last time she visited Ponyville."
"And besides," added Spike, "Twilight's still a way better magician than Trixie!"
Twilight blushed, while Rarity nodded. Spike hummed as he started counting books and ... Rainbow Dash. Well, Rainbow Dash dozed.
"ZZZZ!"
Suddenly Pinkie Pie came into the room.
"What in the name of cupcakes are all you doin' here?" Pinkie questioned. "Trixie's back! No time to snooze Rainbow!"
As soon as you could say "cupcakes", Pinkie was jumping all over poor Rainbow Dash.
"Wh-what's goin' on," said Rainbow Dash, who woke up with a start.
"Ewww, is that drool?" Rarity said as she shuffled away from Rainbow Dash.
"No," Rainbow Dash said as she wiped her cheek. "I don't drool!"
"Come on girls!" Pinkie said as she helped Rainbow up from the floor. "We're not going to do anything if we just hang here!"
Pinkie Pie strutted out of Twilight's library. Rarity shrugged her shoulders and gave Twilight a look.
"Well I guess we follow her," Twilight said uncertainly. "Spike, you coming?"
"Nah, you go ahead," replied Spike. "Just promise me that you'll bring me a box of doughnuts from Joe's when you come back!"
"Okay then," Twilight said. "See you later!"
Rarity and Rainbow Dash ran after Twilight.
When they arrived at the Town Hall, Trixie and her crew Snips and Snails were already there.
"I see she's brought the gang with her!" scoffed Rarity.
"I see Chancellor Puddinghead over there," said Rainbow Dash lazily.
Soon, Pinkie Pie was protesting at Trixie, saying Twilight was better and Trixie was a mean old show off.
Applejack pushed through the crowd, dragging Applebloom by the ear.
"Sorry I didn't come to yer trainin' session, Rainbow, but I had other thangs on m' mind," said Applejack apologetically. "What's Pinkie doin'?"
"I don't - "
But Twilight was cut off by Trixie's magic, which beamed between Twilight and Applejack.
"Oh hey there Twilight!" chuckled Trixie."Remember me?"
Twilight gritted her teeth. Oh, not again! thought the unicorn.
Trixie laughed and tossed her mane. "It appears that the Great and Powerful Trixie has once again bedazzled a pony into a speechless manner!"
Snips and Snails laughed dumbly. Trixie glared at them. "Silence, fools!"
"Get your tail back where ya came from, Trixie!" yelled Applejack. "We don' need no more of ya stuck-up antics 'r summin!"
"Sis, who's that?" hissed Applebloom.
"Nopony you take meanie-weanie orders from!" replied Pinkie.
"Leave Ponyville, Trixie!" yelled Twilight. "There's nothing here for you!"
Trixie simply laughed. "Oh, Twilight? Don't you remember that the Great and Powerful Trixie swore revenge on Ponyville? And revenge s what Trixie shall have!"
