Princess Trixie Sparkle - The Story behind the Musical

Twilight woke some time later with a headache. She groaned, trying to remember what had happened.

“Uuuugh, Spike where are you?” She called out. She put hoof to her head trying to ease the pain when she noticed her blue hoof. Frightened and confused Twilight rushed to a mirror hoping her hunch wasn’t right. Unfortunately, it was for the reflection staring back at her was Trixie. She screamed and backed away from the mirror in a panic.

“Trixie! What did she do?! Oh my gosh oh my gosh… Okay Twilight, think. Ohhh I should have never let her in here in the first place. What was I thinking?”

Spike came bounding downstairs at the sound of her scream.

“Twilight? What’s wrong?” He asked, then noticed it wasn’t Twilight standing before him.

“Trixie! Where’s Twilight, what have you done with her?”

“Spike it’s me, Twilight. I need you to get a note to Celestia right away…”

“Woah woah woah, wait a minute. How am I supposed to know you’re /really/ Twilight?” Spike asked, crossing his arms defiantly.

Twilight sighed.

“You have a crush on Rarity.”

“Everypony already knows that!”

“Okay um… You’re my number one assistant?”

“Is that the best you can do?”

“Spike! We don’t have time for this, I need to find a reversal spell!”

“Okay okay how about this, when we were in the Crystal empire, what was my greatest fear?”

“That I’d send you away because I didn’t need you anymore. I told you then and it’s still true now;  that’ll never happen!”

Spike smiled and threw his claws around her in a hug. It did feel a little strange hugging the unicorn he loved in the body of the only unicorn he hated.

“Do you think one of your books can help?”

“I’m not sure, Spike I’ve never heard of anything like this before. Maybe Celestia will know something, can you take a note for me Spike?”

“Of course!” Spike chimed, pulling out a fresh piece of parchment.  “But what about Rarity’s party?”

“Oh my gosh, I almost forgot! We’re running late, we’ll have to send the letter from Rarity’s. Come on, let’s get those cupcakes and head over there now.”

“Alright by me!”
