The Not So Great And Powerful
It was a dark and stormy night for Ponyville; the rain fell in torrents hard, but all safety measures were taken and everypony was protected inside, all but a sole pony, who was limping alone in the middle of the storm. The mysterious pony had a lavender coat with cyan and white stars on it. The pony had the hood on and could barely see anything more than two meters.
"This is outrageous" The mysterious pony said. "I'm the great and powerful Trixie! How could some pony so important like me end up like this?!" Trixie was fighting against the wind with each step she made; the wind was too strong, she needed shelter. "Humiliated, again! Trixie can't believe it! And Trixie can't believe the reason to be here either! This is the town of that unicorn who first humiliated me, Trixie promised to herself not to be back here, but yet, Trixie is here!" The cyan unicorn sighed and kept limping, one of her hooves was injured and was still bleeding. "Trixie can't even trust herself…"
Suddenly, the wind became stronger and started to push Trixie backwards. She tried to hold her hat but it was too strong and it blew her hat. The cyan unicorn tried to catch it but a wooden plank hit her in the head and made her fall to the ground. She fell over mud with her face. She stood up and removed the mud from her face. "Trixie will get back on her hooves… They'll see… They will all see!" Her anger changed to sadness as tears started too run down her cheeks. "Now Trixie lost her favorite hat… She's dirty and homeless… This can't get worse…" She slowly walked under an awning to protect herself from the fierce rain and sat there, crying, as she remembered her humiliation:
"Fillies and gentercolts, for my next trick, Trixie will disappear this wagon full of potatoes in front of your eyes!"The spectators weren't amused; they were yawning and looking away during the whole Trixie's performance. The cyan unicorn noticed them and tried to amaze them with the big finale. "Pay attention and don't blink or you may miss it and absolute silence!" Trixie said as she turned from the spectators to the wagon. Closing her eyes, she surrounded the cart with her magic, she focused hard and started to sweat. She was about to make the wagon disappear when an spectator shouted.
"You suck!" The cyan unicorn lost her concentration and the wagon full of potatoes exploded, its rests raining on the spectators. The explosion made Trixie fall to the stage's floor so she had to stand up, only to be received by boos and jeers of the angry crowd.
"Get off the stage!"
"What was that?!"
"A foal is far better than you!"
"It wasn't my fault, somepony shouted!" But she wasn't heard, the spectators were still making fun of her and started to throw what was left of the potatoes towards her. Trixie tried to dodge them but the explosion injured one of her hooves and was bleeding so she fell, all the potatoes remains hitting her as the crowd mockingly laughed. When the cyan unicorn felt that she was no longer being attacked she stood up and looked angry to the spectators. "Fools! You will regret this!"
"Oh no, we are so scared!" One of the ponies sarcastically said and burst in laughs, the rest of the spectators following him. Trixie turned to the exit of the stage, she magically brought her hat and coat back to her and put them on as a tear ran through her cheek and limped out the stage, all the laughs stopping when she closed the door
"Insolents!" Trixie exclaimed, followed by a sob. She looked at one of her posters hanging on the wall and, in her fury, ripped it off. She went to where her wagon was, only to find it completely destroyed by vandals. Trixie couldn't salvage any of the remains. She swallowed her tears before heading to the exit of the town, ignoring the pain of her injured hoof. She didn't want anypony to see her like this, but there were barely any ponies around anyway. She moved as fast as she could to leave town before any of the spectators could appear.
Once out, she sighed and followed the road as the sun started to set. "That's it… That was the last town… The last chance… Trixie has nowhere to go and is broke… What is Trixie supposed to do now?" She kept walking, the injury bleeding more and more which each step she made while she thought what to do next. "Trixie has no bits for a train ticket and she can't stay in a hotel…" Suddenly, she thought of a place.
"No! Trixie won't go back to the place where it all started!" The cyan unicorn yelled stopping. "Too many bad memories there, Trixie refuses to return!" But, then again, the unicorn remembered that she had nowhere else to go, and didn't have many bits left, not to mention that she needed medical attention. She sighed loudly. "Seeing that there is not another option… Trixie will go back to Ponyville…"She once again started walking, limping, through the road. Ponyville wasn't far, she thought she would be there by the time the sun sets.
The cyan unicorn shook her head, trying to forget everything. She looked around, searching for something to cover her injury. Nothing.
"Just great… Trixie lost her favorite hat and there's nothing to cover her injury… And she is still without a place to stay… What else could go wrong?" As she finished saying that, the awning broke and all the water fell on her, moments later, she sneezed. "What did Trixie do to deserve this?" She only wants to make a living… It's that much to ask? The Trixie said as she started to cry again. Nopony ever saw her crying, she always did it when she was alone. She then moved from the hole of the awning and sat somewhere else, when she moved, she looked at the building she was. It was a familiar purple decorated place. "This is… the boutique of that unicorn… Trixie remember coming here once when the Alicorn Amulet took over her… What was her name…?" The cyan unicorn said before sneezing again. Not knowing why, she knocked the door as loudly as she could, she waited a couple of minutes before knocking again. Finally, after five more minutes, the door opened, showing a marshmallow pony wearing a blue night coat on the other side. At first, she was annoyed for having a late visit, but then, she calmed down a bit when she saw who was the visit.
"Trixie?" Rarity said confused, then she changed her look to a serious one and asked in a angry tone. "What are you doing here?"
The cyan unicorn slowly looked at the fancy unicorn with a weak look. "Trixie needs help…"
Yeah, I'm back… Yay! Now, this is the Rarixie fic I told you about, I hope you like this weird shipping! XD
