Green Eyes eyes the pony maliciously, thinking about all the money he'll get if this pays off. He steps out in the open to the surprised pony. "Hello there child," he says in the nicest tone he could muster. "Want to see a magic trick?" The small pony shook off her confusion and laughed."Happy hooves, how exciting! I love spell." Green Eyes smiled "Give me your basket then. And you must promise to do exactly what I tell you." The pony gave the broken old wooden basket to Green Eye's and promised: "Cross my heart, Hope to fly, Stick a cupcake in my eye!" The goblin laughed and whispered magic words into her ear. "Now, I'm closing the lid of the basket. Remember to say the magic words then tap four times, then immediately open and close the basket then say the magic words and tap four times again. He said before jumping inside the basket. "Oh I wish you could come to the party tonight, Princess Coral would love to see this!" the pony sighed. He popped his head out of the basket. " I can teach you how to make her appear here." All going to plan. The shifty goblin thought."If you want to tap the basket seven times instead of four!"Thank you, sir!"The naive pony said.
That night Baby Lucky tested out her magic tricks during the coronation. She made a cloak appear from the basket and showed the princess. As the princess looked her tiara almost fell into the large basket. "Now for my next act, I'll make this big enough for one of you to fit in!" The crowd started murmuring to themselves when princess volunteered. "Can I do it Lucky?" Before Lucky could say yes, a red light flashed next to her. The mistress stood tall among the human almost twice her size. "I'll do it, " She said in her royal voice. "Y-Yes ma'am" Lucky said scared. She sized up the basket and The Mistress stepped in. She is royalty so seven times. Lucky thought. She followed the instructions the goblin had told her and tapped seven times. After the magic was done a blackish aura surrounded the box and it disappeared. "Well done!" said Spike the third. "Now bring our queen back." Lucky's heart raced. Oh no, Oh no, Oh no! "the basket wasn't meant to disappear!" Lucky said nervously.She tapped the stick on the ground and said the magic words. Nothing.
Far away the goblin chuckled maniacally." Hell, Princess!" He turned around to see a towering figure. "Y-You're not the princess.." stone-faced said. "Indeed, stone-faced. "This is the last trick your playing Green Eyes." A red aura wrapped around Green Eyes as he lost sensation at his feet. Stone tendrils crept us his neck strangling him. "Goodbye goblin," The mistress said before the light drained from his eyes. As the Goblin fell limp his body hardened into stone, trapping his soul in his body. As she carried his statue back to the party she sang softly to herself. "Green Eyes and basket turn into stone. Statues you'll be-be, all alone. No more tricks will you play. Statues forever you'll stay."She laughed softly before returning to the party.
