Fable 2: Equestrian Cove
The Performer
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Where is Twilight! The Great and Powerful Trixie demands a rematch!" Trixie, after going and studying for quite some time, returned for a rematch to prove who was greater.
"Go away, Trixie, you aren't welcome in Ponyville anymore." Rainbow Dash replied, bored.
"Not until Trixie beats Twilight!" Trixie protested.
"Get outta here before I decide to pummel you into the ground!" Rainbow Dash, aggravated, flew up into Trixie's face trying to intimidate her.
"Just try." Trixie zapped Rainbow with a bolt of electricity that sent her sprawling onto the ground. "I have already taken out the dress maker and this one! These puny elements are no match for the might of Trixie!" Trixie stomped a hoof.
"Jus hold on a minute! You can't jus go 'round and zap who ya please!" Applejack charged at Trixie, only to be thrown back by telekinesis.
"Bring me Twilight or you will all suffer!"
PART TWO: THE PERFORMER
"What was that?" Rarity started "It sounded like screaming. I think Ponyville is in trouble." Rarity gasped.
"What kind of trouble is in Equestria?" Sparrow asked
"Manticores, Cockatri, Cerberus, mean things." Rarity picked up her pace.
"Huh, here an hour and already called into action." Sparrow shrugged before picking up Rarity. "Which way?"
"Over there!" Rarity pointed to the east. Sparrow places Rarity up on his shoulders before going full-sprint towards Ponyville.
"This is terribly unladylike!" Rarity protested 'And I love it!'
"Does it matter?" Sparrow didn't care for people like Rarity, all stuck up and hoity-toity.
"Shouldn't be far now." Rarity was nervous, not from Sparrow, but for the town. They came up on a giant cliff looking over Ponyville from a distance. "Shoot! We'll have to go the long way down."
"How durable are those emeralds?"
"A tad less than diamonds. Why?" Sparrow took the emeralds and dropped them off the cliff. "Are you crazy? Those are worth more than your life!" Rarity recoiled at what she just said.
"I doubt that seriously." Sparrow laughed before jumping off the cliff after the emeralds.
"ARE YOU INSANE! YOU'LL KILL US BOTH!" Rarity screamed.
"You really don't listen much, do you?" Sparrow laughed again before hitting the ground with a small thud. Rarity was shacking like a leaf. Sparrow picked up the emeralds before sprinting towards Ponyville again.
Ponyville
"I-I'm sorry Trixie! Twilight had a problem with poison joke and can't use magic, you'll have to wait." Spike explained.
"Bring her out! Now!" Trixie launched a nearby stool through a window, "I don't CARE if she's sick! I have to beat her!"
"What do you want, Trixie? Wh have you hurt my friends?" Twilight asked groggily from her window.
"Get down here and face me!" Trixie called back.
"How about you face me?" Sparrow had arrived and saw Trixie yelling and breaking things.
"Like anyone could defeat The Great and Powerful.....Trixie..." Trixie turned around and came face to face with the most beautiful creature she had ever seen before. The creature was wearing simply amazing armor, it's eye's were a vibrant, caring blue, it had a halo for Celestia's sake!
"You talk a big game, but can you really deliver?" Sparrow took a step back, "Blast me with everything you have."
"You...asked for it!" Trixie didn't want to kill him, but she had to keep up her reputation. She charged up her most powerful spell, a mix of lightning and fire, and launched it at Sparrow.
Sparrow caught the brunt of it with his chest and didn't budge. "Was that it?" he asked. In all honesty, it was incredibly painful. "I guess you earned this." Sparrow charged up a shock spell to tier 5 and shot it as close as he could to Trixie without hitting her. 'I can't kill her, she's too cute. I've never not been able to kill something!' Sparrow stepped up to where Trixie stood, paralyzed.
"You don't have a horn..how did you do that?" Trixie mumbled.
"Not important, tell me, why are you terrorizing this town?" Sparrow asked.
"You wouldn't understand, family matters." Trixie coughed.
"Try me." Sparrow took a seat on the ground.
"Monster! Get it!" A random townspony shouted before launching a brick at Sparrow with his magic. Sparrow caught it and sent it back many times harder with a force push. "Or.....not."
"Anyways, tell me why you are hurting these ponies?" Sparrow repeated.
"My parents always taught me to be the best you know? Failure is not an option. When I told them that a normal townspony beat me in magic, they told me I wasn't their foal anymore and that I was never welcome back home. I spent a long time bettering myself in magic so I could make my parents proud." Trixie explained.
"Huh, your parents sound like assholes, no offence." Sparrow said.
"Oh, they are, but they're my parents, I can't just not try to make them proud." Trixie pouted. 'Adorable' Sparrow thought to himself.
"Maybe we should go talk to them." Sparrow suggested.
"Why would someone like you want to help me? You don't even know me." Trixie asked.
"You need help and I help people, simple as that." Sparrow shrugged. "Yes or no?"
"I guess it wouldn't hurt, but isn't it kind of weird? We're not even the same species."
"Weirder things have happened." Sparrow stood "Believe me on that. I just fell from the sky and unintentionally helped a white pony named Rarity dig up some rare gems and now I'm helping a blue pony solve her family problems. I'm pretty sure I went insane when I touched Murgo's crazy box-thing." Sparrow put on a smile. "Now, let's go miss...?"
"Trixie. What are you exactly?"
"Human. Before we go actually, you need to apologize."
"Oh, alright."
After apologizing, though they didn't forgive her, Trixie and Sparrow set off towards Hoofington. Trixie of course had her doubts about the odd creature who claimed to have fallen from the sky, but if he wanted to help then she would let him. She suspected that her parents wouldn't care what he had to say, but she was thankful he wanted to try, besides, she felt oddly attracted to him.
"I forgot to ask, what is your name?" Trixie asks
"Sparrow. Tell me a bit more about your family, Trixie." Sparrow said.
"When I was a foal..."
