And to my editor, sorry this chapter is long, and fuck commas.Hope you all enjoy!
[Two days ago]
Trixie had spent a few days in the forest with her new companion Link the timberwolf. Over the last few days, the two had bonded and became inseparable. link would always stay close to Trixie and protect her. She in turn loved him, cared for him, and protect him. The two were quite the odd sight indeed.
Over the last few days many ponies passing through the forest heading to either Ponyville of Manehatten, would stop to see the odd duo playing in the woods. Trixie didn't want to take Link into the city for fear he'd be taken from her, she didn't want to lose her only friend in the world. So, she stayed in the forest, on the path of course, and tried to see how Link reacted to other ponies. It looked promising, he loved meeting other ponies, and after two days it became clear that nopony knew what he was, and thought of him as an exotic pet. Maybe it was his green leafy/grass like appearance, but Trixie was glad he didn't look like a timberwolf nor acted like one.
Trixie often played with Link, teaching him tricks and how to be part of her act should she ever get back into it. And the two of them were quite happy during these bonding time. It was during one of these times, that Trixie learned of the colt and his father she'd saved earlier that week.
It was during her playtime with Link when she encountered the ponies heading back to Manehatten, and they re tuned her wagon to her. Well, it wasn't her wagon, but she was glad she could return it to its proper owners since she knew their names. The stallions name was Scribble and his son Sketchy, along with a friend named Lyra, and they were traveling to Ponyville from Manehatten together after concluding business in Manehatten.
Scribble was happy to see her in good condition, though, it took some convincing that link wasn't going to hurt them. In fact, Link and Sketchy got along swimmingly after the awkward meeting. Scribble and Lyra had told Trixie that the wagon was damaged beyond doable repair, but they'd managed to fix it temporarily. Grateful for this, Trixie offered to travel with them back to Manehatten since it was only a day's travel from the Inn. The three had decided travel by train was safer rather than the three day trek back through the forest to Ponyville.
Now, at the border of the forest Trixie, Link, and their three companions took a moment to rest before entering the city.
"Trixie, it was nice of you to save us. " said Lyra. "You know, I heard what happened Ponyville, and that you TRIED to stand up to that Ursa Minor. It was brave of you, despite not being able to vanquish it you still tried, and that means a lot." she then looked to Scribble and Sketchy. "Especially since you saved us from those timberwolves."
Trixie looked to the three of them smiling. "It was what any decent pony would do." She then thought about the grey filly and her mother along with the Pie's, and how she nearly left them to their fate. If I hadn't been there... she didn't want to think of the outcome had she not been there to help. Instead, she vowed never to turn away a cry for help not matter how small, unless she was doing something so important it couldn't wait.
"Don't worry, Miss Trixie." said the colt walking up to her. "You're the best! You saved us after all!" he said prancing around her, a big smile on his face.
"Now son, don't crowd her that's rude." said his father scolding him.
"Yes, father sorry,Miss Trixie," he said sadly.
Trixie placed a hoof under his chin and raised it so they were face to face. "Now young one, it' s OK, Trixie understands, so don't worry about it." she turned and latched herself to the wagon. "And don't call Trixie 'Miss' it makes her feel old."
The colt smiled at her comment. "Well, you are older than me, and mom says it's proper to do so." he laughed.
Trixie puffed her cheeks glaring at the colt, then Scribble and Lyra joined. Trixie found their laughter contagious and soon joined them. After a minute the four ponies and timberwolf, continued to the city. After a brief lunch, paid for by Scribble, they went to the train station. Trixie was happy that she was able to help these three ponies, they were kind to her, friendly even. As Scribble bought the tickets Lyra took the opportunity to speak to Trixie.
"You know Trixie, I could smooth things over in Ponyville for you if you want." she patted Trixie on the back.
Trixie looked at Lyra with a warm smile on her face. It would be nice if Ponyville didn't old anything against her, but pride can make one do stupid things. Just then, forgetting what Lyra said, a thought crossed her mind. Trixie looked at Lyra confused, which caused Lyra to tilt her head. "Wait, if you were in Manehatten all this time, how did you hear about what happened in Ponyville?"
Lyra thought for a moment before a look of realization hit her. "I got a scroll from my friend Sweet Drops, or Bon Bon as I call her. She sent word of what you "DID" with the Ursa, but after hearing it from you, I feel that you deserve better than you got."
"Thanks Lyra, that means a lot to Trixie." she approached Lyra giving her a strong hug.
"Hey Trixie!" called Sketchy. Both unicorns looked to see the young colt running up to them. "Look I got my ticket!" he said excited circling around the two mares. Lyra smiled while Trixie looked at him confused.
"That's great Sketchy..." she said cautiously eyeing the colt. There was an awkward silence, and just as Trixie was about to say something Lyra spoke up.
"It's his first time on a train." she said lifting up the colt with her magic placing him on her back. Trixie nodded finally understanding why Sketchy was so excited. She then walked over to Sketchy.
"So, you've never been on a train before?" she asked him. He responded by shaking his head. "Well, you're in for a treat trains are lots of fun, fast, and the scenery is amazing!" she said all this while conjuring an image of a train, made it fly around the colt turning it into a halo of fiery blue as it dissolved into blue dust. The colt watched in awe at the spectacle conjured by this wondrous mare.
"Wow that was amazing! The colt said hopping off Lyra he looked up at Trixie. "Can you show me more?" he asked. Before she could answer him, the sound of a train whistle blew off in the distance signaling the arrival of the Friendship Express.
"Sorry young one, I'll have to take a raincheck on that." she said to him as the train pulled up to the station. Ponies began to pour in and out as the conductor traded places with a new one. Link was running around on his leash trying to reach the colt. Sketchy walked up an hugged the young timberwolf.
"Friendship Express non-stop to Ponyville!" he called out.
"Aww. That stinks." he said kicking the ground as his father pulled him close with a one arm. The colt looked up to Trixie with a sad look in his eyes. "You will come visit won't you?" he asked. Trixie looked to Scribble who nodded in confirmation, and Lyra nodded too.
"Oh course little one, Trixie will stop by sometime soon to amaze you with her great magical talents!" she yelled creating a vast series of firework explosions from her horn. The colt was happy to see her in such good spirits, it made him happy seeing her perform. "Trixie will come to visit someday, but first she needs to get herself back on the road of life." she said patting the colt on the head.
"Last call! All aboard!" called the conductor.
"Well this is it, thanks again Trixie, for everything." Scribble said patting her over the shoulder. "Please come visit sometime. It would mean the world to him and me." He looked at his son who was saying goodbye to Link along with Lyra. Both had big warm smiles on their faces.
"Don't worry, I'll come visit once I get back on my hooves."
"You know, we could help you if you want." he looked around as if expecting somepony to hear him, he closed in on her ear whispering. "It's almost harvest season, and I have a freind who always comes to me when he needs extra hooves for work. It'll be hard work, but it'll be great pay, I guarantee it." he said winking.
She thought about it for a moment, tapping a hoof on the ground, she looked back to Scribble. "I'll think about it. Thanks though, I'll come to ponyville if I could use the help." she said. Scribble shook his head.
"No, here, let me just give you our mail address." he said writing down the address on a piece of paper. His hoof writing is flawless. Trixie thought. "There you go, and I expect to hear from you often OK?" he asked giving her the paper, she levitated it into her suitcase and placed it back in her wagon.
"Thanks Scribble."
"No problem Trixie." he then turned heading for the train, as Lyra came back running in place.
"I'll smooth things over in Ponyville for you OK?" Trixie nodded at the mint green unicorn. "Alright! See you then, Trix!" she yelled as she ran to the doors of the train.
Trixie watched as the three ponies boarded the train holding Link in her arms, as they settled in, Sketchy ran to a window opening it near her. "Bye, Miss Trixie, I'll see you soon hopefully! Don't forget me!" he said waving to her as the train departed the station. She waved along with Link to the train until it was out of sight.
Once the train was out of sight, Trixie place Link into the wagon latched herself up, and began wandering the streets of Manehatten. It was amazing how ponies attitude changed once she ventured deeper into the city. She had been walking for over an hour and for some reason most ponies tended to stay away from her. At first she thought nothing of it, thinking it to be mere coincidence that ponies were moving as she walked the streets. However, when she stopped for a drink of water at a fountain, she'd left the wagon behind taking Link with her. When she returned she found the wagon damaged with graffiti. Threats and insults all over it, and some writing saying 'remember Ponyville, the Ursa has come to Manehatten!' and next to it was a picture of Trixie from a flier she made sometime ago announcing her shows. It too was 'modified' in a very uncouth manner.
Link whined sensing his friend's dismay, rubbing against her leg. She looked down at him trying to hold back tears as she stared at the death threats. "Don't worry Link. Trix-I'll be fine you'll see." She raised him up cuddling him with her arms like a mother her child. He barked happily wagging his little green leaf tail nuzzling her affectionately. She then looked at a local and approach her.
The mare was a pegasus tall, bulky, kind of chubby, and easily stood two heads taller than Trixie. She was tan with a dark short spiky red mane. "Excuse me Ma'am?" Trixie asked approaching the mare. The tall mare looked down at her then saw her 'dog', and gave her a curious glance. Trixie noticed and shook a hoof at him making him sit right next to her. "He's an exotic breed from Stalliongrad." The mare nodded to this accepting her story.
"So young miss, what can Astellaluna do for you?" the tall mare asked.
"Trixie was wondering if you knew the time?" she asked looking at the mare. Trixie noticed she had three freckles on one side of her face and nowhere else. Then she noticed the mares cutie mark was a silhouette of a pony head with a 3 on it. The mare noticed this but politely answered Trixie's question.
"Astellaluna's sorry but she to hasn't any idea what time it is." she say Trixie jump at her sudden booming voice, she grinned at her response. "Don't worry, Astellaluna forgives you. It's not the first nor the last ponies gawk at her." she said taking a mock pose that'd put Rarity to shame. She brushed her mane to one side and looked at Trixie with a shocked expression. "What? Does Astellaluna have something on her face?" she asked Trixie.
She shook her head. "No, it's nothing like that. Trixie thought she was the only one who spoke in third pony." she said excitedly.
"Well that's OK. Astellaluna takes no offense, miss..."
"Trixie, of The Great and Powerful Trixie which is her stage name." Trixie boasted.
Suddenly the mare looked worried, she looked around to see other ponies were looking at them with angry looks. The mare started to fidget a bit from this.
"Oh, sorry but Astellaluna has to be somewhere and isn't sure if she's running late as is. Please excuse Astellaluna." she then bowed to Trixie and flew off into the sky. Trixie was wondering what that was all about, had she done something to upset her? No, she was sure it wasn't that. Maybe the third pony thing was a sensitive subject for her, yeah that had to be it.
"Well, it looks like Trixie has much to learn about etiquette." she walked back to her wagon and latched herself up and proceeded to find a suitable hotel to stay in.
As darkness began to set over the city, Trixie still hadn't found a place to stay. Many were booked at the time following a fashion pageant being held that night, others were too expensive for her since all her money was from two young colts allowances. Still, if she could haggle the price down she'd be able to get a solid day before leaving. Money was an issue and it had to be dealt with soon.
As she walked she came upon a unusual bar called Pette's Pie Bar. It was packed and by the looks of it, it was in fact a pie themed bar. Trixie's stomach grumbled. She then counted her bits. Not enough for the both of us. she thought looking at Link. He saw her look and sat up from his nap and barked wagging his tail. She contemplated on what to do next. She could save her bits for herself and give Link only what he needs to survive, but she wasn't up to the idea of feeding herself and sleeping in a warm bed if Link couldn't. On the other hoof, she didn't have enough money to accommodate them both. So she was met with a tough choice, it was either her or the dog scenario.
It didn't take her long to reach a decision. Placing the wagon near the bar, she dug into her belongings looking for her makeshift cloak placing it on herself. She then walked over to Link rubbing his head waking him up. "OK link, it's time to put your training to work." she said.
[Meanwhile, in Pette's Pie Bar]
In a corner far from the others, two cloaked ponies were having a drink, or to be more accurate one was drinking while the other was yelling at the former.
"You LOST her!? How do you lose somepony you've been following!?" A mare yelled at her companion slapping the mug out of the others hooves.
"But sis, I had too!" he said. "The cops showed up later looking for her something about a mare pegasus or someth-I don't know! I'm sorry OK?"
Smacking herself in the forehead, the mare looked at her brother as he cowered in fear. "If I hadn't promised mother on her death bed so help me I'd have rung your little neck ages ago! And where is Solarflare?! She should be here by now!" she hissed at him. He reached for his neck running a hoof along it as if to make sure it was still there. The mare then plowed her head into the table.
"Please, sis, I'm sorry I'll find her I promise! " he said desperately rubbing her head. She looked up at him with a fiery hate that made him withdraw his hoof. "As for Solarflare, she should be arriving tonight. Please, sis, I'm sorry don't hate me. Please?" he gave her the saddest puppy dog eyed look he could muster. She tried to look away but the damage was done, that sad look, so desperate and sorry for goofing up again.
She finally gave in placing a hoof on his head rubbing it. "Fine. You are forgiven little, bro." she then scooted over to him carefully leaning in and kissed him on the cheek. "There. All is forgiven. Find her and there will be more waiting for you when you do." she said in a sly tone reaching under the table. She gently rubbed his balls enticing a moan from him. The young stallion immediately stiffened as his sister worked her hooves under the table on his hardening shaft. He was trying hard not to moan, as his sister became more vigorous in her movements forcing him to bit down to prevent himself from making an noise. He leaned forward onto the table reaching down taking hold of her hoof stopping her, and leaving him unsatisfied.
"Please,not here." he spoke softly. Under her cowl the she grinned at him, and he simply rolled his eyes under his. To his relief no pony had noticed his sisters uncouth display. Then again, so many of the ponies here were intoxicated they'd probably never notice.
"OK, little, bro. I'll behave if you promise not to screw up again." she said placing an arm around his hips pulling him closer. She placed her head on top of his rubbing his chest as he did the same to her.
"Define screw up." he asked with a huge cocky grin.
"I swear if the next words you say aren't, 'sis, I love you sooo, much' you'll be sleeping outside tonight." suddenly she heard fireworks close by followed by cheers. "Huh, the pageant must have started early." she said closing her eyes resting on her brothers head. She felt a tapping on her shoulder as the young stallion pointed into a group of ponies at the center of the bar cheering at a azure unicorn mare and a small green companion.
"Better hold that thought, sis, I found who we're looking for." as he pointed to the azure mare. She looked up to see their quarry, a sinister smile donned her lips as she thought up a plan to deal with the azure mare.
"Trixie."
[Later that night]
Trixie was happily counting her bits from her performance at Pette's Pie Bar, while walking along the road with her wagon. One hearty meal and a new sleeping bag later, and both were as happy as can be as they walked the dark empty streets of Manehatten.
Trixie decided that they'd be sleeping together under the night sky. In her mind Link was the best protection in the world and he'd never let anything happen to her, being a unicorn helped too. The fact was nopony would let her keep him with her, and where he went she went. They were passing by a dark alley way when Link was grappled by a chain, with a surprised yelp he was flung into the dark alley.
Trixie immediately unlatched herself from the wagon and followed the disappearing Link into the darkness. It was so dark she couldn't see down it maybe a few feet. Casting several candlelight spells she fired them across the walls lighting the entire alley with bright white light. Once illuminated, two figures were there, one holding Link who was struggling to get free from his chains, and the other turned to face Trixie with a conjured two bladed sword.
The first pony Trixie noticed was the tallest of the two, holding the young timber wolf in chains. The pony was the timberwolf mare, as Trixie called her, she was wearing flame styled armor. The sabatons were flames attached to the bottom of greaves that were ebony black. Her breast plate was heavy styled in a single flame that covered her chest with her cutie mark of a timberwolf head in engulfed in flame. The spine had a dozen or so flame shaped plates connecting orange rib plates which supported her multi-layer pauldrons which were rising flames. She wore a helmet that was also styled in flames curved upward slightly making her look like a horned demon with her mane flung out the back.
The other was smaller wearing identical armor, except the helm was enclosed with a almost glass like dome and the ponies mane was in a pony tail. This pony was standing on his hind legs with a two bladed sword conjured around his right hoof, which ran parallel to his arm, easily extending it three lethal feet.
Trixie stood her ground, trying to think of a way to save Link and escape with minimal harm to him and herself. With the way her two adversaries were armed it wasn't looking to good. The mare holding Link tightened her grip on the cub causing him to squirm more, as she slowly chocked him. "So, you did come to save him after all." she said smugly walking next to the wall. "How sweet." She then smacked the defenseless cub's head against the wall knocking him out.
"Release him at once or face the wrath of The Great and Powerful Trixie!" she yelled at the mare angrily.
The mare stepped forward levitating Link keeping the chains tightly on him, as she raised him above her just over her horn. "YOU DARE ADDRESS ME AS IN SUCH A MANNER YOU PLEBEIAN! I AM BLAZE STARFALL, OF THE STARFALL CLAN, AND YOU ARE BENEATH US YOU FILTH!" her voice echoed through the alley and into the night. Luna would have been jealous of the volume this mare held in her voice.
Trixie stomped the ground firing a stun spell at the mare only to be intercepted the the stallions blade. Trixie didn't flinch. "Trixie won't ask you again, release Link now, or face the consequences!"
The mare made a face of pure disgust. "Ugh, you actually NAMED the filthy little beast?" she hissed at Trixie. "I can't believe you would associate with a unclean, obscene, disaster of nature. I thought you had some sense, but it's clear now that you're no better than this filthy... mongrel. SomeTHING unclean that must be cleansed by our fire. RUBY!" the stallion stepped to the side, dispelling his sword, and stood at attention. "Cleanse the disgusting little beast." she sneered.
"You will do no such thing!" Trixie lunge at the stallion trying to fire a stun spell on him, but his armor reflected it off. Trixie was nearly struck by the rebound spell, and barely had time to duck to the side as it skimmed past her cheek.As she did, the mare lunged forward delivering a swift jab to her stomach knocking her off her hooves.
The young stallion looked at the unconscious cub. "Do I have to, sis?" he asked, his voice muffled slightly by his helmet.
What happened next shocked Trixie, the mare spun around and blasted him in the chest, in one fluid motion, and sent him flying back into the wall knocking the wind out of him dropping Link in the process. He pressed a hoof to his chest as he fell over gasping for breath. The mare walked in a threatening manner. He cowered from her laying his body flat on the ground, he looked up to her with absolute fear.
"You dare ask me such a thing?" she stomped the ground next to his head cracking the cobblestone under her hoof causing him to flinch. 'Have you forgotten what they've done to us? What these unclean monsters, no ABOMINATIONS did to our family?!" with each word she began to show signs of losing her temper further to madness.
The stallion dared to look up at his sister. Trixie recognized him, it was the 'mare' she saw back at the Inn deep in the forest with the older mare. Apparently he was actually a stallion with a curvy figure, and could easily be mistaken for a mare. Unlike his sister he was a blank flank.
"No sister I haven't, but what you're talking about happened over a millennium ago." he said standing up slowly as to no aggravate her more he then slunk over to the cub. "It's over. We won, you've proven your point. Can't we just leave it be?"
As soon as the words left his mouth her dropped to the ground, as if by instinct as the mare shot a trail of flames from her horn down the alley missing him by an inch at best. He looked back to see a charred remains of a royal guard helmet which was a molten piece of slag now. She then lifted him to his hooves dusting him off and levitated his helmet over. "If you can't do it I'll do it for you. And I'll tell Solarflare that YOU screwed up again." the stallion was now shaking, his armor clanking with each shiver his body made echoing in the alley like a metallic humming. "I see that got your attention, now finish the job." the mare shoved his helmet back on his head.
All the while Trixie had recovered and tried to slip past them, but before she could the mare grabbed her with her magic. Gripping Trixie by the throat she levitated her up about a meter dangling her there. "Finish the job Ruby!" she barked at him.
He stood up walked over to Link's unconscious form. The little timberwolf's green fur was dirty from being rolled on the ground, bruised, and his hind left leg was twisted in an awkward unnatural way. He looked down at the cub, it was defenseless unlike his kin who would have fought to the death for survival, but this was wrong in his mind. To kill with no remorse or mercy when one can't defend themselves, no one deserved to die like that. Like mom did. he thought.
He lit up his horn, it glowed with a dark red glow. He then prepared another spell more powerful than the first, as a second layer of magic engulfed his horn, followed by a third. The mare looked at him with great anticipation. "Yes brother, cleanse the unclean filth from our world. Bring forth the healing through fire and ash, let the world know your strength of faith in the flame!" she preached. Trixie tried to break free but the magic holding her was to strong for her. As she prepared a spell the mare tightened her hold around Trixie's throat forcing a squeak noise from her. "I wouldn't do that if I were you." she looked back at Ruby. "DO IT."
The stallion never broke his concentration nor did he look away from the timberwolf cub. Just as he was going to fire his barrage of spells he hesitated. Taking a deep breath he solidified his resolve shooting the magic built up in his horn down on Link.
Perspective Link
Link heard a strange humming noise. Voices were speaking around him, but he didn't recognize them. He heard Trixie a few times followed by a squeak noise. Curious he opened his eyes only to have his vision blocked by a wall of flame. In the span of a single second he remembered what happened. Startled he howled calling out to Trixie before everything in his world went bright blinding him, and suddenly black and absolute silence.
Trixie watched as the stallion fired his spells at Link, turning him into a dome of fire. The dome shined brightly as link howled out in fright. Trixie realized he was calling for her, she tried to use her magic, but the mare pounded her head against the wall again making her lose focus so she couldn't. Then there was a bright flash, and when it died down Link was gone and only a vague outline of him remained where he was as his howl died out.
The mare walked over to her brother and gently rubbed his shoulders before embracing him. "Well done Ruby, well done." she cooed in his ear. He scowled at her terrible pun.
"That was distressful Blaze." he was clearly not happy with this result but decided it was the best. At least she didn't realize what I did.
Leaving her brothers side the mare walked up to the hanging Trixie and levitated her closer. As she did, she drew a knife from under her shoulder plates and placed it across Trixie's throat. "Don't cry little pony. You'll be joining him in a moment." she said in the most sadistic manner possible. Trixie's eyes were teared up, not from fear, but sadness and hate. So much hate filled her heart at that moment. To the mares surprise the half chocking mare smiled. "What's so funny? Have you finally realized how futile it is to struggle? Have you resided to our fate to be cleansed by fi-" before she could finish Trixie headbutted, her driving her horn into the mares right eye.
She let out a bloodcurdling scream as she dropped the knife and Trixie, gripping her eye. "YOU BITCH I"LL KILL YOU!" Trixie rolled onto her back using her hind legs, she kicked with all her might at the mares gut knocking her to the floor where she rolled gripping her eye spouting colorful metaphors at Trixie.
Instantly the stallion conjured his sword and charged Trixie. "Get away from her!" he yelled as he charged Trixie. Standing on his hind legs he took large steps side to side as he pressed forward leaving him legs wide open. Seeing this Trixie gripped the knife with her magic and charged at the stallion. He sent his arm across his chest and put all his force into a mighty swing cutting through the stone walls like a knife through warm butter. He never made contact with his quarry. Trixie slid right under him between his legs as he swung his blade. When she slid under him, she used the knife and with three swift thrusts stabbed the poor stallion in his shaft twice and completely split his right testicle. As sh finished she dispelled her candlelight's and darkness fell over the three ponies. Knowing this Trixie cast a night vision spell to help her see.
He cried out in pain trying to drive his blade into Trixie missing her completely. Sliding past his she spun around kicking him onto the floor next to his sister. She looked at Ruby with shock as he fell gripping his crotch with both hooves as a pool of blood covered the area around him. Damn bitch! He'll bleed out if I don't help him! she thought standing between Trixie and Ruby. She tried to stand listening she could hear her brother sobbing behind her, but she couldn't hear Trixie.
Trixie threw the knife at the mares head with lethal intent but was deflected by a magic blast. Seriously! Why does it always happen to Trixie!? she thought looking up at the source of the magic blast. It was a third unicorn mare, similar to the two she was fighting, but stood a full pony taller than Trixie. She easily rivaled Princess Celestia in size.
"Who are you ? You dare challenge Trixie!?" she yelled pointing at the mare.
The mare looked down to the two other unicorns glaring at them. "You two get off your butts now!" she screamed.
The stallion was the first to respond. He limped to his blind sister, taking her by the arm guiding her down the alley. Once there the third mare opened a portal and the two injured siblings walked through. Trixie ran up to the third mare. "No you don't! Get back here and fight you cowards!" she shook an angry hoof at them. The large unicorn mare halted just by the portal, but never went through. Instead she dispelled the portal and turned to face Trixie.
"You have made a powerful enemy this night Trixie Lulamoon." she tapped her hooves on the ground twice, causing her body to erupt in flames. The flames slowly crawled up her body until she was completely covered in it. When the flames subsided she was gone, no scorched stone or anything, she was simply gone. Trixie ran to where she was and began looking around trying to find the elusive mare. "You did well Trixie. My brother and sister are not to be taken lightly, yet you made easy work of them. Impressive." her voice cackled through the streets.
Trixie was now in the streets frantically looking for her on the roofs, in the alleys, behind cover, anywhere she could possibly be. "Come out and face Trixie! You cant hide forever!" she stomped the ground.
"You will do well to remember us little Lulamoon. You've made a powerful enemy of the Kindle Trinity! Everywhere you go, we will follow and burn it to the ground. The friends you make, will burn to ash. The one you come to love will burn down with their passion! Everywhere you go we will follow, and a trail of ash, smoke, and fire will trail behind you until the madness of isolation takes hold... Then... only then will we come to you, and you will die." with each word the mare started to yell louder eventually laughing maniacally as she call out to Trixie. "We will cleanse your filth from this world! You soul will burn in Tarturus for eternity and when you're gone your family will suffer the same fate as you do!"
As her voice echoed through the streets Trixie looked down dejectedly."You wait, Trixie is the most powerful equine in all of Equestria Kindled Trinity! You may have the vantage now but you will rue the day you challenged, The Great and Powerful TRIXIE!"
"SHUT UP I HAVE WORK IN THE MORNING!" a stallion yelled from his window.
"Sorry sir!" Trixie called back slinking into the alley. She took the wagon and placed it at the end of the alley, tired from the fight she took her sleeping bag and placed it over where Link was burned to nothing. It was dark in the alley, but even without the candlelight spells her eyes now adjusted to see in it. The moon shined brightly over Manehatten and all the ponies were fast asleep under the watchful eye of The Moon. All but one. Trixie was restless. She began sobbing shorty after settling in and after a minute she had no tears left and drifted off to sleep.
Good bye Link.
