"EEP!" Babs Seed screams. "You can't let them see you! you haven't paid taxes!"
Trixie groans "Don't worry Little Filly! The Great and Powerful Trixie isn't a fraud anymore! I assure you!"
"Tollite eGO de autem hic maledicta, ante autem in maledictum invenient eGO!"
The words bring about some sort of power, and Trixie disappears.
She appears right outside of the city, by her caravan.
"Ah here she is! Come on Babs! we have to hurry back home!"
Babs Seed raises an eyebrow "...Home? where's home?"
Trixie picks her up, raising her into her caravan.
"COME ON! I'LL SHOW YOU!"
As they ride home, Babs Seed begins to ask Trixie.
"I've never been in a Caravan besides this one! Do you live here orrr?"
Trixie laughs "I spend long periods of time here, but my family, before the umm.. incident, lived in Ponyville, after I suggested they move there,
before that they lived in Canterlot, but they left when I dropped out of Celestia's magic school."
Babs Seed replies "YOU WERE IN PRINCESS CELESTIA'S MAGIC SCHOOL?! COOL!"
Trixie laughs "Yes well.. I was a dropout, couldn't quite do what Twilight does,
but the magic Twilight does isn't for me, curses are mine."
Babs raises an eyebrow "What are curses? I thought that was just hocus pocus!"
Trixie laughs "So did Twilight Sparkle, no one believes in them anymore...
Curses are different, they're not naturally born talent, it's more like something you learn.
I happen to know three ponies who are experts in them though, and since Ponyville migrated, they've been teaching me."
Babs laughs "HAHA! WOW! I wish I could perform curses!"
Trixie replies "Why you can! You don't have to be a Unicorn to perform curses my dear!
Tell you what, when we can get to Dream Castle, i'll teach you all about them!"
Babs scratches her head.
"What's Dream Castle?!"
Trixie laughs "You'll see."
a few hours pass, it was no easy journey, as Dream Castle is far away from Ponyville,
they arrive at the now abandoned Dream Castle, as the Grundles of G1 have long since been extinct.
not far down lies 'the Volcano of Gloom' where Trixie's 'friends' who are experts in curses happen to live.
it was them that insisted they move into 'Dream Castle'
Trixie walks through the gates, Babs Seed on her back, as they shut behind her.
"Well little filly.. Welcome to Dream Castle!"
Babs Seed's eyes grow big, "WHOOOOAAAAAA! This is more amazing than I could have ever imagined!"
She then coughs. "But... a little dusty."
She jumps off of Trixie's back, and Trixie replies. "Yes well... we're still working on that,
the flooring and walls might be a little.. rugged to say the least, so don't go jumping around unless you want to fall through the floor,
according to Hydia this Castle is over 1000 years old."
Babs Seed stuffs her face with nearby cake, and mumbles. "Who's Hydia?"
Trixie sighs "The umm.. Curse experts, now come on, your friends are in the next room."
Babs Seed's eyes grow big.
"! MY FRIENDS RIGHT!"
She then quickly rushes in.
She glomps Applebloom, responding "COUS!" And jumps on her.
"YOUR CUTIE MARK IS... ART? What? so you're an artist now?"
Applebloom laughs.
"Yup."
Sweetie and Scootaloo walk in, and the four begin chatting.
Trixie sighs and thinks to herself. "Must be nice of Babs... to have family who cares about her."
Trixie begins walking out the gates again,
her mother creeps up behind her. "Hey Trix, where do you think you're going?"
Trixie scoffs "To go learn more about curses."
Her mother sighs. "Trixie I thought I taught you better than that,
you think those Witches actually care about us or Equestria? cause they don't, they're using you hon,
are you that dumb, or did you forget how you met them?"
Trixie sighs
"I've heard enough Mom, i'm out of here."
Babs Seed rushes out with her, glomping her as well.
"You're not going to see them without me! you promised me you'd teach me about curses!"
Babs Seed's pounce, knocks her down.
She get's up. "ALRIGHT ALRIGHT! JUST GET OFF OF ME ALL RIGHT!"
Babs Seed yells out "ALRIGHT! COME ON GIRLS LET'S GO LEARN ABOUT CURSES!"
The former CMC charge up behind her. "YEAH!"
Trixie groans. "GAH! Now I didn't say you could all-
*Sigh* Nevermind, come on girls."
The gate to Dream Castle closes behind them, and Trixie's mother walks away mumbling to herself.
"She'd better not come back without Grandchildren."
