Everypony deserves a second chance—even a third chance!

Twilight straightend the rope around her neck for the twenty-fourth time, still feeling dissatisfied with the fantasy and the idea of having leave, today is Nightmare Night. Not that she didn't like these festivities, she just didn't understand.

Twilight didn't like not knowing something, but before she took all the fantasy out, a knock at the door startled her.

"I can enter?" The voice was soft and melodious.

Before Twilight could deny it, her mouth moved on her own. Responding:

"Of course".

The door opened, revealing nothing less than the housekeeper of Equestria, Queen Celestia. As soon as Twilight saw her, she noticed her clothes and began to laugh. Twilight is a child so she wasn't going to try to hold back the laughter, when she saw the Queen using a cake fantasy. Yes, exactly what you have read.

The fancy only had holes for the legs, arms and head, the rest was the round cake shape, chocolate cake. However, the Queen was not angry, she accompanied the girl in laughter. Celestia herself agreed that she was ridiculous in this outfit, but for being today, she would do anything to distract herself.

"Twilight Sparkle, I must admit that I'm impressed by your loyalty to Clover," Queen Celestia said, walking awkwardly (by fantasy) but with a smile on her face. "But can I give a tip?"

"Yes?" Twilight replied, but it ended up sounding like a question.

"Well, Clover the Clever,wore a hood much more worn than this, I never saw her hands free. She always walked to and fro, with a parchment and a feather in her hand making notes about everthing ..."Queen Celestia ended up getting lost in nostalgia, Twilight didn't notice.

Twilight went to the table, looking for a feather and a parchment, as soon as she found it returned to Queen.

"Thank you Queen Celestia!" Twilight thanked her, her eyes shining.

“The least I can do. Sunset and Cadence are waiting for us, let's go?”.

Twilight clasped his hand on the Queen, with the other hand took a basket and left the room with a bright smile. Twilight love herlife, love Spike, love the heated discussions between Sunset and Candace, love hearing history of the Queen before sleep, love waking up every day with a loving embrace of Sunset.

Twilight woke up with his body soaked, breathing heavily and covering her mouth to soften the sound of his crying. It was dawn, the cart pulled by a curious creature called an ostrich-horse, continued with its gallop. It was fortunate for the three of them to get this ride, even more fortunate for Big Macintosh to offer the ride, between boxes with apples and hay, since Rarity banned any means of transport that could leave traces, or get attention.

Twilight tried to move without making much noise, since her faithful assistant and brother (in the free time), sleeping peacefully. Unlike Twilight, who as soon as she slept, woke up with the nightmares, and so much that the wain swayed.

Twilight squeezed the book "101 ways to camp out, not end up being eaten" over her chest, looked at another witch who slept next to her. Twilight didn’t know how to feel close to the sorceress, she was a royal guard, but she still didn’t act like one. Then Twilight closed her eyes, doing the technique Candace taught her years ago, until she calmed down.

It worked, for a brief moment everything was in the deepest silence. A silence that the sorceress thanked, however didn't last long, as blue eyes stared at the purple immensity. Twilight blushed, looking away. Rarity smiled in a funny way, getting up and whispering not to wake the sleeping hybrid:

"My darling, we are going to have to say goodbye to our wain and continue our long, and suffered only by walking"

Twilight just confirmed, without being a magic problem, she could be extremely clumsy. But before Rarity could make another comment, which would make the sorceress redder, a sense of nausea filled both, not so much Twilight. Because it was not the first time she dealt with black magic.

Only they both felt, the man who drove wain didn't seem to feel, let alone the dragon. The two sorceresses looked at each other, and with a nod of their heads began to pack their supplies.

Twilight caught Spike in her lap and caught the man's attention.

"Thank you again, but we'll have to get off."

"Eeeyup." He looked, nodded and stopped the wain.

The sorceress and the dragon descended, but before Big Macintosh left, Rarity called him, and said:

"See you later, tell AJ that I sent you a hug, and also your grandmother"

Big Macintosh replied with another "eeyup", and left them.

Because they were in the middle of a road in the middle of the night, they didn't exchange many words, they continued the walk toward the source of black magic. Rarity was on full alert, ready for anything as Twilight continued to read the book "101 ways to camp out, not end up being eaten" also carried the dragon on her lap. Not that she wasn't worried about the confusion she knew she was getting into, but for the first time she decided to calm down. It was not as if this mission was to depend on the future of Equestria, they were just some idiot wizards in search of power.

Twilight frowned, storing the book in her pants pocket, which had a enchantment that allowed it to store items up to 10x larger than its original size, created by herself. She shook the dragon, calling him:

"Spike, let's eat something?"

With these words spoken, the dragon eagerly opened his eyes.

"Urgh!I'm really starving ..." Spike lost the words and swallowed hard, an action that became repetitive, looking Rarity "a lot of hunger ..."

Twilight dropped him, watching him sink into the dirt, entering the tavern. Ignoring the calls of the two, really tonight didn't seem to end. But, as soon as the sorceress come in into a welcoming feeling, filled her. She couldn’t tell if it was the rustic environment, the music being sung by a fairy while a stone troll skillfully dominated the piano, the loud talk and laughter, or Twilight's favorite, the smell of drink.

But as soon as Twilight sat at the table, a girl who didn't look like be more than a teenager, like Twilight, came up with a huge smile, a notepad and a feather.

“Oh, I've never seen you around here, you're not from here, have you?, I knew! I should tell you not to eat anything, food is rubbish. I'll bring you an apple pie,as courtesy. Miss Sorceress would like to order what?” The girl said without losing her breath and smile, as soon as she saw Twilight, she felt a huge urge to cheer her up. Twilight had beautiful eyes, but many sad in her opinion.

"Er-um, I'm really new," Twilight murmured, still in shock. But she recovered, as Rarity and Spike turned to her. "Thank you for the courtesy. I would like an apple cider, an undercooked rib of alligator-catfish ..." It was for spike, because practically all inhabitants of Equestria were vegetarians.

Twilight didn't know what Rarity would like to eat, but as she sat next to her, she asked "Would you like order for what? "

"Scrambled eggs from giant-lizard and also one cider," Rarity replied, without losing the charm as always. Twilight and the girl shuddered.

"I'll bring your requests shortly," the girl said, stepping out of their field of vision.

Spike now faced some creature now facing Rarity, who perceived and smiled in retribution. Rarity fell in love with the dragon's way, finding it absolutely adorable.

Already Twilight, had her eyes fixed on a place, more precisely a sorceress. A flashy hat with bright stars embroidered on her, the hood is of the same material. The sorceress, whom Twilight recognized by the energy she conveyed, screamed to the four winds for all to hear. Twilight ended up getting so distracted watching her, admiring her and at the same time judging that she only noticed the food in front of her, how much Spike woke her frantically, swinging the claw in front of her.

"I got distracted a bit, excuse me" Twilight finished apologizing, but realized that the waitress still faced her with expectations.

Twilight took the fork, taking a piece of the pie and swallowing .Not holding up with such a taste and moaning with pleasure. The girl smiled even more.

"I was glad you liked!"

"That's definitely the best thing I've ever eaten," Twilight said with her mouth full, returning attention to the mug and drinking the liquid in. Again moaning, ~~almost having an orgasm,~~ looking with eyes glittering at the girl.

"Me silly, I'm in charge for today. Actually, my friend Gummy helped me! You want to meet him?" She asked.

Twilight was going deny it, but she really wanted to make the girl happy. She left looking for his friend, leaving a Twilight delighting in food, if not for a laugh. Twilight with a mouth full of pie sought the sound, which came from Rarity.

"What? "Twilight asked with her mouth full and dirty, she hadn't education at the table

"Nothing. It's just that Twilight Sparkle is cute," Rarity commented as she wiped her Twilight cheek with her finger and put in her mouth, sucking the whipped cream.

Making Twilight blush and Rarity laugh even more. It was just a joke, but it affected the other sorceress a lot. Except, that before Twilight had her revenge, an alligator (a rare animal) with easily more than a meter was thrown on the table. Twilight saved the most important thing, the drink.

"This is the Gummy and this ... I do not know your name!" For she, was the most shocking news.

"Twilight Sparkle"

"By the way, I'm Pinkie Pie, but I bet you knew" Pinkie said, winking and leaving Twilight confused, "But, this is my friend Gummy! "

"Hello Gummy, it's uh it's nice to meet you" Twilight felt stupid, but something in Pinkie left not hurt her "Pinkie, this is my faithful assistant Spike and this is ... Rarity"

Pinkie greeted them both with a warm embrace, but before any other word could be uttered, the music ceased.

"Come one, come all! Come and witness the amazing magic of the Great and Powerful Trixie!" The sorceress said, displaying a great illusionist magic. Making exploded fireworks and fall as snowflakes.

Most creatures opened their mouths in admiration, even Twilight who didn't like to see the magic being used that way, but, as it was her opinion, she kept to herself and continued to admire the show, watching and who knows recording all the details of the sorceress in her memory.

"Watch with admiration of the Great and powerful Trixie, perform the most spectacular feats of magic, witnessed by the eyes of mere mortals!" As soon as these words have left the mouth of sorceress, they snorted, for the sheer size of the sorceress's ego. Huge, by the way.

Primarily Rarity, how ironic, she couldn't stand one petty, self-centered sorceress. Most of the time, but maybe she'd change her mind with a certain winged girl.

"My, my, my! What boasting!" Rarity said to Spike, who with a silly grin agreed.

But with silence, Trixie heard the comment, and with hatred looked at Rarity.

"Well, well, well, it seems we have some neighsayers in the audience. Who is so ignorant the magical to challenge the ability of the Great and Powerful Trixie? Does they know they're in the presence of the most magical sorceress in all of Equestria? "Trixie stepped off the stage, walking toward Rarity.

Everyone was quiet, everyone wanted to see blood or at least an epic confrontation. Pinkie didn't care, Trixie was really entertaining the customers.

"Just who does she think she is?" Spike asked to no one in particular, stood up and stared at the sorceress convinced "The most powerful sorceress of Equestria is Twilight Sparkle! Without Rarity offenses".

Twilight who so far focused on drinking the cider, the third glass, gasped as she felt all the attention to herself.Trixie looked with disgust for the hybrid dragon, turned her attention to another sorceress. Trixie caught her by the collar, lifting her up, Twilight really didn't want to get into more trouble, but it looked like she had a magnet.

Feeling the breath, the Great and Powerful Trixie didn't help, even though she was an arrogant idiot, Twilight blushed and looked away, avoiding the neckline at all costs.

"Heh, why, only the Great and Powerful Trixie has magic strong enough to vanquish the dreaded bear major! Did you have? No! Only the Great and Powerful Trixie can!" She said with the ego up there, leaving Twilight without words, and an astonished Rarity, with such petulance

"I doubt it, your farce!" Rarity pushed Trixie, the let Twilight fall.

" When all hope was lost, the ponies of Hoofington had no one to turn to, but the Great and Powerful Trixie stepped in, and with her awesome magic, vanquished the ursa major and sent it back to its cave deep within the Everfree Forest! " Even without anyone asking, Trixie told the story.

"I challenge you to a duel. Now" Rarity said, moving away from the sorceress.

"Trixie accepts the duel." With these words spoken, Trixie turned and marched out. Being accompanied by the creatures.

Twilight looked at the confusion, standing up and murmuring:

"We can't draw attention, the mission is secret" Twilight tried to mimic Rarity's tone of voice.

"Come on, I really want to see how this is going to end" Pinkie asked Twilight, without waiting for an answer and pulling her along, with Gummy.

In Twilight's conception, a duel is when two sorcerers use all their skills. Not this. Outside the "cauda alligator," the name of Pinkie Pie's tavern, in the middle of the icy dawn the two sorceresses fought.Even so, it seemed like a show of who was the most dramatic, no one wins Rarity in that.

But all the illusionist magic and conjuring spells, couldn't hold attention. Until Trixie turned Rarity hair into green, no one should destroy her elegancy, she'd taken hours to make it.

"Oh no my wanted, you didn't hurt the most important thing fot a lady "Rarity conjured a mirror, which was broken when she saw her reflection. Rarity's face flushed with anger, as tears pour and further erased the makeup.

"Trixie seems to be the winner." She turned to the crowd, who as in a spectacle applauded her.

Trixie lowered her guard, irritated Rarity. Horrible combinations, resulting in Trixie being lifted and hung on , cauda alligator, the tavern logo Rarity sat on the floor, exhausted, but not before putting on a cloth not to get dirty.

"Damn" Trixie cursed her, still hanging.

Spike ran to Rarity, giving her a warm hug.

"You're still beautiful to me," Spike blushed as he said it.

"Oh my dear Spike," Rarity smiled triumphantly at the creatures. "The farce deserves be to hang."

No one seemed to notice, thanks to the laughter and the whole celebration, but the feeling of nausea returned, with even more force. What Twilight and Rarity sought to, finally appeared.

A giant flaming stone was thrown toward her, actually several other stumbling stones were thrown in the direction Spike and Rarity were, and where Trixie was hanging. Twilight realizing this, started to run, sliding in the sand, spitting a shield. To protect everyone.After seeing that everyone was protected she jumped, being a prodigy it only took a few seconds to do all that,Twilight jump so loud it even looked like Pinkie. Landing on top on a translucent structure, looking like a completely different person than before. In fact, Twilight dealing with magic was someone else.

However, she only had time to dispatch a shield where the crowd gathered, and a shield to stop the debris. Twilight took a deep breath, teleporting and taking Trixie in her lap, bridal style and using her body as a shield. To protect the convinced sorceress. The tavern was different, Twilight couldn't keep three shields at the same time. If she hadn't given up what protected the tavern, she was going to faint and everyone was going to get hurt

The tavern was hit by all the giants flaming stones, Pinkie cannot do anything, just holding Gummy and pray to Queen Celestia.

Trixie wasn't hurt, only thanks to Twilight who protected her, throwing at the last minute a shield and getting in a compromising position on top of the illusionist, who was also flushed. But as soon as the attacks stopped, Twilight and Rarity exchanged glances, getting up and going after the magic trail of the wizards who did this.

Leaving Spike trying to comfort Pinkie, who had lost everything in a few seconds.

Everyone was in shock.

Author's Note

I'm trying to redeem myself, making Twi's personality as cannon as possible, with the pinch of that universe.Of course!

cauda alligator means alligator tail.

Spike here ~~loves~~ Rarity, without news.

Sorry for the trixie too, I really love this character. So maybe, Twilight seems to have some romantic interest in Trixie, but remember? ~~No romance etiquette.~~

• Twilight is 17 years old.
• Rarity 19
• Spike is at least 30 or so, but he's a hybrid, so he ages differently.

By Doki Doki Harmony, I really hate Dusk Shine, the male counterpart to Twilight.

Next chapter: waterfalls as a reward for humiliation.

I'm going to cry because I've lost this chapter.

If you find any mistake tell me so I can fix it.
