Orange Skies Over Everfree
Chapter 7
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe pack of hungry wolves grew closer and closer to the still roaming Trixie, yet she continued to search the areas which had not been blocked because of the effects of the fire. The beasts finally encountered the aspiring enchantress at a point where she could not continue through the forest. She slowly backed from the growling predators that continuously followed her movement. She finally spoke, her shaky voice said “Ha-ha, hi I don’t plan on staying for long, so if you would kindly just wait a second I would gladly leave you alone” At that moment she sent streams of smoke upwards, clouding herself from the rabid animals for mere seconds as she ran away.
Applejack leapt towards the masked figure in the centre of the stadium “Rainbow Dash! I didn’t expect anything different from you” The Pegasus soon responded “I think you’ve got the wrong pony, I’m not Rainbow Dash, she’s next door at the Wonderbolts flight training school, I’ve always dreamed of seeing her perform live but the Wonderbolts are normally very private. Sorry about that” Applejack slowly responded awkwardly “Uh yeah sorry, I’ve been looking for her for a while, you said she’s next door?” She darted away from the stadium and into the flight school. There she saw hundreds of ponies who all seemed to be practising a routine unique to each of them. Her search began, she asked most of the ponies all wearing the trademark Wonderbolt outfit if they had seen her friend. But none of them had. “This is gunna be a lot harder than I thought” She admitted.
Trixie was now running as fast as her legs could carry her, the hungry, angered beasts followed closely. A small hut became visible and she began running towards it. It was none other than Zecora’s hut. Trixie had attracted wolves to helpless ponies in a grave situation already. And worse than that, she had previously placed them in that situation due to her petty grudge against Twilight Sparkle and the use of Zecora’s only supply of Unrequited Oasis. Unaware of the resident of the hut she burst through the door, slamming it behind her and barricading it with her body. It wasn’t until she calmed down and looked forward that she realised that she had finally found her rival and her friends. “What are you doing here Trixie? I thought you had left us alone for good” Twilight asked. Trixie replied between pants “I have encouraged some wolves to attack me somehow; I mean . . . the wolves must have been envious of my magic so they ambushed me, the cowards, they could never face my magic properly in battle. I have conquered an Ursa Major before what would a couple of wolves be to a great wizard like me?”
