It's been a year after Twilight ruined the Great and Powerful Trixie representation she's become broke, homeless, and worst of all friendless and now she's out for her revenge and nothing is going to stop her from taking her life back. (This is my first fan-fiction so don't expect the best)

"Great, another cold night trying to find another card board box to sleep in."
Trixie was a Unicorn that had a decent job as an entertainer, she had a magical wagon that transformed into a stage and lit up the beautiful night sky with fantastic fireworks and bright colors.
One day Trixie payed a visit to the calm and peaceful town of Ponyville.
She had no idea what was awaiting her when she arrived. Trixie went into the center of the town and set up her stage and prepared her act, and just when the crowd that gathered was large enough she went to work.
Loud booms from fireworks, motors turning wheels shooting sparks and flames into the night sky filling it with light.
Trixie never felt more alive the show went great and she made a profit nothing could have gone wrong that night.
"Ah this was a wonderful night for the GREAT AND POWERFUL TRIXIE MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"
Trixie had to stop mid diabolical laugh for there was a knock on the door.
Trixie trotted over and opened the door to see who it was, "oh it's you two, lovely, what do i owe the... misfortune" snarled Trixie
"Trixie you've got to help us, the Ursa Major.... It-it's here! we need you to defeat it!" said Snips a sniveling little colt that was a fan of the show. "WHAT!? what in the world did you do?"

Trixie ran out of her parlor and Ran across the town to fend off the beast.
As the monster came into view Trixie readied her horn, she'd need all of the magic she had because it will not be an easy task to dispose of this abomination.
Trixie was ready to blast this beast into a pile of carbon matter when another unicorn shoves Trixie out of the way.
Trixie was applauded by this Unicorns actions, but she couldn't do a thing because the violet unicorn already Disposed of the monster.

After that everyone thought that Trixie was a fraud, a lair, and a bitch.
The news traveled all throughout Equestria, no one would come to her shows anymore; well that's not true some would come to throw rotten vegetables at her and call out slanderous words.
After every failed show Trixie would walk back into her room in her trailer eyes full of tears and her heart crushed.
By the sixth month Trixie had almost nothing to her name except her hat and cape, she had to sell her trailer in order to get some money to live on.
She wandered around Manehattan doing odd jobs just so she would be able to buy some oats and clean water.
One day Trixie actually had some spare money left, she thought and thought about what she could do with it, and then it came to her.
She spent the night under some random awning to get away from the bitter rain and waited until day.
She was so excited she was finally going to do it, she hopped onto a train and departed.
On the train she was lucky enough to have her own cabin, with food and water.
The seats were the softest thing she sat on for the past six months. Trixie when to bed on the seat, it was the best nap she had ever taken, and when she woke she felt almost as good as when she was preforming.
The nap lasted most of the trip and just woke as they pulled into the station,

"Now pulling into Ponyville station"

Fresh off the Train

"Finally, I'm back in the town where it all started, and where it will END!" as Trixie shouted it made some little filly next to her cry.
Trixie didn't know what to do, the parents and everypony was glaring at her making her feel like crap once again.
In shame Trixie walked out of the station and into ponyville, now that she was here she needed to find that damned purple pony, but she had no idea where to start nor did she have any idea what to do once she found the snob that ruined her life.
She figured she'd start at the local inn, after about an hour of walking around the town looking and ended up walking up to a bring pink building, "hmm the sugar cube corner? not really what i was looking for but i guess it works."Trixie thought to her self.

She walked into the the store, she could smell the cupcakes and muffins being made it only reminded her that she was hungry but no bits to buy anything. Just as she was about to leave a pink pony bounced out of no where and started to run it's mouth but nothing coherent came out of it, mainly nonsense. "Oh my Celestia shut up! don't you breath? what's wrong with you?" yelled Trixie so she could be heard over the pink pony's voice to which she replied with
"nothing silly, i just don't recognize you and i know everypony in this town, hey what are you doing later? want to go to my party?!"
"A party? why would i do that? i'm too busy right now to deal with your 'party' now i must leave."
"what are you looking for? huh huh huh?maybe i could help! i love finding things!"
Trixie sighed knowing that this would probably be a better start then just aimlessly walking around this town,
"Okay, I don't know if you'll be of any help but i need to find some pony"
"Oh! well that's easy! who are you looking for?" gasped the Pink one
"I'm looking for a purple unicorn, I don't really remember anything else about her."

The pink pony thought for a second, she thought a little more and then her eyes widened and she gasped, "I think i know who you're looking for! come follow me!" the Pink pony bounced off with the magician following behind.
After a short walk they came to a house, but it was an odd house because it was built into a tree.
The pink pony ran up to the door and knocked on the door, "TWILIGHT! ARE YOU HOME?" yelled the Pink pony.
Trixie waited a little bit and then she her someone coming to the door, Trixie's heart beat faster and faster is this the person that she was looking for? the person that sent her life into a downward spiral? the one that was so RUDE! to her? she couldn't take it any more that anticipation was killing her.
Just as Trixie was about to explode the door open and standing there was a purple dragon, Trixie was dumbfounded, her heart sank and tears started to well up, but she kept herself under control.
"Hey spike, is Twilight home?" said that Pink pony
"Uh, yeah i think she's upstairs, i'll go get her for you pinkie pie" said the baby dragon.
Pinkie turned to Trixie and started to ramble on again about nothing to Trixie's interest, she blocked her out and started to think of what she was going to do once she saw this 'Twilight' character.

Final

Final

Trixie finally got some idea thought up, and just in time for she heard hove steps coming from the house.
A purple unicorn stood in the door way, Trixie was speechless, she had this whole thing planned out but she couldn't do anything about it. "Hello? oh hey Pinkie what did you want?" said the purple unicorn
"Oh i didn't want anything but this pony said that she was looking for you." Twilight turned her gaze onto Trixie and her eyes widened as she realized who the pony was.
"Oh! it's you Trixie right? what can i do you for?"
Trixie just stood there, she had no idea what to do she just stood there like an idiot and then it just flooded her.
All of the feelings from the past year the failed shows, the insults, losing her stage, her home, the poverty, the shame.

She just couldn't help it anymore she just started to cry, uncontrolled tears rolled down her face, the shame of just standing on somepony's door step, one who she doesn't really know just crying.
Twilight had no idea what to do, so she just offered the strange pony inside.
Pinkie pie left and Trixie slowly walked into the house confused and upset, she sat down in a chair and twilight offered her some tea.
Trixie still sobbing takes the cup and Twilight sits down on the chair across from her.
"So it's been a while hasn't it?" Trixie didn't know what to say she was still crying but not as bad as the sobbing she was doing before.
"Listen I know the last time we meet wasn't the best, i'm sorry that everypony expected so much from you that was unfair of them to do that, but i had to do something i didn't even know i could do what i did but i never intended for people to treat you any differently."
Trixie was confused, she didn't remember it happening like that, she must be lying she must!
"LIAR!" Trixie screamed, "YOU DID NOTHING OF THE SORT YOU HIT ME AND TOOK ALL OF THE FAME!"
"Trixie i didn't, it was the Ursa Minor that knocked you down and i had to step in"
"But but, no, you're right i guess, to tell the truth i don't really remember what happened that day it was a while ago"
Trixie said with a sigh.
"I guess i should just go, it's not like it was your fault. I guess i'll just go find a box to sleep in" Trixie said with a frown and tears starting again. "wait, what do you mean? what happened to your wagon?" Twilight asked.
"Because of what happened a year ago, everypony said that i was a fraud, they cursed me everywhere i went i had to sell it just so i could live, but what does it matter to you?" Trixie said with a scowl.
"I just won't allow it, no pony should have to live like that epically a great and powerful one at that"
Twilight said with a wink.
Trixie was caught off guard she had no idea that this once what she thought was an evil pony turned out to be one of the nicest she had met. Twilight let Trixie live with her and spike, and after a few weeks she got a job preforming at the sugar cube corner to attract more customers. She finally felt good again, her life wasn't fully fixed but she couldn't complain she had a job, a place to live, food, and most importantly friends.
