Life can be hard some times life can chuck you all over the place these word could not be more true for a mare that i know her name is trixie

Life is hard very hard, well for humans any way, that's what I use to think that's before I met Trixie. She showed me life can be just as hard for ponies as it is for humans.

trixie's story

Trixie sits on a fallen pillar next to me preparing to tell me her story of how she ended up in this mess

"The great and powerful Trixie's story begins some time ago. She had insolently made her grand entrance in to ponyvile"

I instantly face palm at the name ponyvile but I guess I should get used to name thing cause with things going the way they are, in another six to seven years the whole dam world will be engulfed in that stupid dome of death and rainbows.

And trust me the name dome of death is a bit of a understatement if a human gets caught in that thing, it aint as simple as drop down dead. It's more like searing pain and agony wile your skin bubbles and peels off and you're eyes and brain pretty much melt with you still alive screaming all the wile. I've seen it on the news if It hadn't got like a million views on YouTube in the space of a few hours then I'm Sure the government would have liked to keep it down.

It was quite funny watching sun butts face turn green and her spewing up all over the secretary of defence on live TV,but considering I was in a cafe when it happened and I was laughing my head off lets just say I weren't lathing for long.

I had been caught up with my day dreaming that I hadn't noticed Trixie tapping my shoulder quite hard.

"How dare you ignore the great and powerful Trixie as she tells you her story!!"

"sorry I am listening I just got distracted"

"The great and powerful Trixie is not amused"

"OK just get on with the bloody story"

"very well the great and powerful Trixie had just made her way in to ponyvile"

Trixie told me how she had been made a laughing stock by this mare named Twilight sparkle and moved from town to town.and each time she had be laughed out or booed out of town. But she had seen a new hope when equestria and earth collided, she took the first chance to move to earth. But when she got here, the first town she went to was one of the ones that didn't particularly like the whole ponies coming to earth and turning humans in to more ponies thing so they were not pleased to see her at the least.

"so I'm guessing that they chased you out of the town"

She begins to tear up before lunging in to my arms and sobbing.

"yes! they chased the great and powerful trixie out and destroyed her home"

At first I did not know what to do I had two options,one push her away and say she was mad or too hug her back and try to tell her that every thing will be all right. I went with option two. I just sat there for a bit stroking her mane trying to comfort her she eventually stopped crying and sat back. We looked in to each others eye's for what felt like a bit too long.

"feel free to look away at any time trixie"

She awkwardly looks in to the distance trying to make out that never happened I had to admit I did see a lot of myself in her, the fact that she was never liked by her own kind, life had treated her like crap from day one, she was homeless, no matter what she did it always turned out badly,and even when she tried to make a fresh start that back fired too.

"look trixie I'm going to the conversion bureau in San Antonio you can tag along as well if you want, the pony's there might be able to help get you back on your fee-hoofs"

Trixie looks back at me and then away again probably thinking about what I had just said, she then gives out a sigh and says.

"The great and powerful trixie will accompany you,but its miles to San Antonio we will never be able to walk all that way"

"I know, don't worry my friend David lives just down the rode he will be able to help"

"what? but I taught that this town was deserted after the HLF and PER destroyed this place"

"yup it was,but he's nearly as crazy as me so there you go,you don't have to pay tax if your living in a deserted house in a evacuated town now do you"

trixie just roles her eyes at me and we begin walking to David's house,it was probably about five minuets away looking back at the rubble and remains of
the old hospital I start to remember my old house,or what was left.

it had been a month since the timber wolfs as they were called had attacked and my parents were taking me to the new conversion beurough in town but I did not like it one bit.

"so son what kind of pony do you want to be?"

My dad had asked me that stupid question more times than I could remember since all this talk of pony's and ponyfacation had started and each time my dad would get the same answer.

"I don't know dad"

"what's the matter kiddo?"

"I just don't know what to think of all this dad,I'm just having a hard time figuring out what I want to do"

"that's why were going you'll be able to meet lots of those new foals and get to find out what's its like"

I just sit in the back of the car completely silent for the rest of the way there thinking of what I want to do for the rest of my life. But each time I came to the same conclusion,I just don't know.

The car came to a sudden stop as my dad parked the car in the car park I open the door and get out looking up I see at what I thirst think are big birds but on closer expectation they were actually pegasi I pay no attention to them and walk on.

"look son wouldn't that be cool flying around in the sky like that I bet you would be a great flyer"

"I bet he would"

I look to my left and see the most flashy pony I had ever seen her mane was all the colours of the rainbow,she was looking at me as if she could see something in me she then circles me as if she was inspecting me and turns to face me holding out her hoof she says.

"names Rainbow dash nice to meet you"

she looks at me with a smug look on her face expecting me to get confused as what to do,I couldn't give her a hand shake for obvious reasons so I give her a bro hoof I think that's what they call it. She stands their for a few seconds realising that I had just slipped past her little game. I failed to hide the smirk that was quite clearly plastered on my face.

"hi names Jon,nice to meet you too Rainbow dash"

she then gives me a smile before saying.

"love to stay and chat but I've got to go help my friend set up for her speech or something,bye"

with that she blasts off faster than I could blink leaving a trail of rainbows behind her. I then sarcastic say.

"oh joy I'm only a couple of seconds in and I've already met a pegasus that has rainbow colour hair and shits rainbows when she fly's, I can just tell that something else absolutely marvellous is bound to happen"

With that me and my dad walk in to the conversion borough. I would not walk out those doors the same boy after.

Author's Note

finally it done chapter 2,I have been trying to get spear time to do this with school and the amount of home work I've been getting. I had to rush a lot of it so there will probably be tons of spelling mistakes,sorry so I hope y'all enjoy and have a great day.

The rainbow coloured conversion bureau

I walked through the doors my eyes darting all over the room, pony's as far as the eye could see, my dad walks in behind me.

"wow that's a lot of pony's isn't it son"

"yup sure is"

my dad points me to the counter to the left of me were a brown earth pony was sitting at a desk who looked to be typing on a computer, how I had no idea, we doth walk over to the desk I give a small cough to get her attention.

"oh hi welcome to the conversion bureau how can I help you?"

My dad steps in front of me before saying.

"were just here to have a look around if that's OK?"

"of course, just let me set up a profile if you don't have one yet?"

"no we don't have one yet"

"all right, names?"

"Jason Rogers and John Rogers"

"age?"

"58 and 16"

"OK that should do it enjoy"

"thanks"

My dad hands me a land yard which I put around my neck and my dad dose the same, with that we begin to walk around looking at every thing,nothing really caught my eye just a couple of TV's with pitchers of equestria on it and happy people and pony's. I had to admit I was curios of what equestria was like but I had this annoying voice in the back of my head saying that its all a lie.I guess I just did't trust the pony's.

"A little to the left, no the other left"

"sorry twilight I just cant see it properly"

The voice was unmistakeably familiar it was the pegasus from earlier, rainbow dash was her name I think. I look up on the stage and she her with someone else as well.

"Hi Dash"

"oh Hi John nice to see you again"

"you too I'm guessing that this is your friend yore helping"

"yes her names twilight, she's a bit of an egg head"

"DASH!! you know I don't like it when you call me that"

"well there's no hiding the truth twilight"

I start to think to myself perhaps these ponies are more human than I thought, looking on stage Twilight and Rainbow dash were having a perfectly normal argument about dash calling her a egg head, well as far as you can call normal.I hadn't really ever considered the ponies even close to human but then, I'm not sure anyone had, could it really be all that bad being a pony?

"John you OK?"

The sound of dash's voice snaps me out of my daydreaming I look up at her she had a concerned look on her face the more and more I think about it the more and more I want to do it,but when I think about how much I would be giving up, my home, my violence, my natural instincts, countless years of evolutionary success and not to mention all the history of mankind.

"yes I'm fine just zoned out for a bit sorry"

"k just you were a bit of a living zombie there"

"hum! what ever"

"well what could have you so deep in thought that you would turn in to a zombie?"

She gave me a quick smirk after that, I did't want to tell her but I still did for some reason.

"just thinking about what it would be like"

"what?"

"ponification"

"look I can't force you to do anything, but I can promise you this, if you do get ponifide then I will be their with you, and ill give you a tour of pony vile and cantalot, I might even be able to get you a audience with Celesita herself"

"you would do that for me?, why?"

"because that's what friends are for"

friends? I've never had a friend before.

"John-John!!!"

The sound of Trixie's annoying voice snapped me back to the present.

"um-wha-what, what is it Trixie?

"if you are quite done daydreaming, how far are we from this house?"

looking around I quickly spot the house in question, it looked a lot cleaner than the last time I had seen it.

"its just over there"

I say pointing towards it then in the most snobbish voice.

"dose her highness think she can mange the rest of the way, or would the great and powerful Trixie like me to carry her?"

"if that's supposed to be funny it is not, the great and powerful Trixie is not amused"

I give her a smug look and we continue walking, I start to think to myself just how many years its been since I last saw him, three years, three long years and I had't made any attempt to contact with him, some friend I am, that word ,friend, its the hart and sole of all this, the pony's worship the dam thing, it can define the relationship between two people and it has so much more meaning as well.

I walk up to the door, the past flash's before me.

"IF YOU WANT TO GO FUCKING FROLICKING WITH THOSE FUCKING FREAK'S THEN FINE!!!, BUT DON'T COME CRAWLING BACK BECAUSE I WONT BE HIRE, YOU CAN GO BACK TO CELESTIA AND BE PART OF THAT STUPID HERD!!!!!.

"John don't do this, I just don't want to die!"

"oh look at me I'm a stupid little sissy who's afraid of dying, well hires a news flash, WE ALL FUCKING DIE!!!"

with that I grab my bag and storm out of the house thinking I was never going to come back.
I stand looking at the door, contemplating whether I'm really going to do this, if I was really ready for what ever was on the other side of the door.

"look if your not going to knock then the great and powerful Trixie will"

Trixie gives three strong knocks to the door, I guess I have no choice now, just try not to beat the crap out of whatever opens the door.
the door opens and standing in the doorway was a male unicorn, it had a dark green coat, a spiked yellow and mud brown mane and tail,
everything about him was different but I could tell it was still him.

"hello Alex long time no see"
for the first few seconds he just stares at me blankly as if I had just lifted a seven tun truck above my head.

"J-John is that you?"

"yes, it's me, I'm surprised that it's you that doesn't recognise me and not the other way round"

"yep, please come in"

me and Trixie walk in, an immediate feeling of guilt and pain shoots through me, the past really does hurt as much as the present.

Author's Note

sorry this took so long I have been kept quite busy and have not really been in the mood to write, but here
it is so enjoy. probably lots of spelling mistakes and such, I'm not very good at this but I enjoy it anyway.

How thing's got started

I started the day just like any other woke up,got dressed,ate breakfast,tore down the tent,got all my things together,packet up,grabbed my E.B.R rifle,checked it,cleaned it a bit,loaded the magazine in and chambered the round in.

Hearing the sound of the bullet enter the chamber brought back fond memories. I was a young kid living on a farm in Clovis west of Dallas Texas my dad had shouted me up.

"John! JOHN! get up wolves got the chickens again!"

I quickly grabbed my clothes and got dressed picked up my rifle and ran down stairs.

"what's going on dad?"

"Darn wolves again come on!"

So we ran outside in the pitch black couldn't see very far ahead but you could clearly see two glowing green eyes in the dark
and then another pair and then another and another and another and another until there were at least 16 pairs of green glowing eyes staring right at us.

"Dad wolves eyes don't glow like that do they?"

"No they don't"

We both stud there for a while trying to make sense of it not noticing that the wolves had gotten close very close one of them stood in the light. As it slowly came closer I noticed it was a wolf made of wood it gave a cold growl and lunged at me.

I suddenly snap back to reality relaxing again just realizing how peaceful the morning was.

But something felt off I could not quite put my finger on it *clank* the sound caused me to instinctively swivel my entire body 146 degree's towards the location of the sound.

My heart started pounding as I slowly moved towards the mound of concrete and rubble with the rifle pointed ahead I scrabbled to the summit and held my breath. As I aimed with my breath still held glaring down the iron sites at what was a sky blue unicorn.

I kept my eye locked on her while steadying my breath readying myself for putting a lead bullet in her head.

She on the other hand she just stared up at me with her tongue still stuck in the what looked like a cat food can i could have screamed at the cuteness but I had to keep my composer and not show any weakness because for all I know if she saw weakness in me she could just flash her horn and boom!! dead.

So I have to keep control of the situation but those eyes,those adorable eyes

Wait what she doing?

Her horns glowing but she's not casting any spell or is she?

Yes she is! but something's wrong it's like she can't

HA she cant use magic! I shout in my head mocking her

What kind of magical unicorn cant use magic

"urrrg! Why can't the great and powerful trixie use her mind controlling spell it must be a faulty spell!"

I just turn around and walk back to my bag and grab my long leather coat and put it on,I sling my back pack over my right shoulder and my gun on my left and begin walking off.

"Hey how dear you walk away from the great and powerful Trixie as she is preparing to turn you in to her mindless slave!!!"

I just keep walking on ignoring her because she's no danger to me ha the stupid thing cant even do the thing its supposed to do and yet she still call's herself the great and powerful trixie? no wonder she cant use magic she's to far stuck up her own ass to be able to.

I continue walking for a few more steps before she runs ahead of me a stops right in front of me as she shouts.

"You will bow before the great and powerful trixie as she bends your pitiful mind"

With that her horn begins to glow then flicker and nothing I look down at hear she had beads of sweat on hear face and all over hear body.

I chuckle to myself at hear failed attempt at what was obviously a mind control spell I bend down to hear level and stare in to her eyes with my finger under her chin so she's looking right at me and I coldly say to her.

"Try that again I dear you because all it would take is for me to pull my revolver out,hold it under your chin and squeeze the trigger until I hear a very loud bang and a very VERY satisfying squelch as your great and powerful brains are blown all over the place."

She begins to tear up as she looks in to my eye and just breaks down in tears right in front of me sniffing as tears ran down her face
and on to the ground.

"Why can't the great and powerful trixie do any thing right!"

"All she wanted to do was be truly great and powerful she was booed out of ponyvile,laughed out of canterlot and chased out of trottingham."

"She thought that she would have a second chance on earth with the human's seaming to like the magic of illusion more than the ponies of equestria but no they had to treat her just the same,no worst! so much worst."

Those last words were so laced with malice and anger that I bet even the devil would have shuddered at them.

By this time I had pretty much given up on trying not to feel bad for her my hart just ached to hug her and tell her everything will be OK I sighed and turned around looking right at her I sit on a fallen over concrete pillar I look at her and pat my hand on a space next to me indicating for her to sit next to me.

"Look your not going to solve anything by just siting their and crying about your problems the best thing to do is talk about them."

*sniff* "Why should you care about the great and powerful failure?"

"Because we might be completely different species but we do have some thing in common."

"Like what!?"

"Like we have both had shit lives,we've nether been accepted by are own kind and we both need to eat."

I shake a can of tinned pineapple her way so she can clearly see it she stares intensely at both me and the tin for a second or two before she looks away and says.

"The great and powerful Trixie dose not accept charity" *gurgle*

Her stomach gives the most embarrassing gurgle ever she looks back at the tin and looks to the ground and back to the tin. She then stand's and walks over to me and takes the tin out of my hand with her magic and takes a seat next to me and opens the tin and begins to eat the contents.

"The great and powerful Trixie must know why have you given her food just after threatening to end her life."

"Well I never was actually going to kill you I have a bit of a soft spot for ponies to dam cute if you ask me but before we get to far in to my story what's yours?"

*sigh* "Very well the great and powerful trixie will share her tail of misery and desolation."
