Rejects' Love

A new day had arrived in Ponyville and like they do every morning, Starlight and Twilight sat down to breakfast but recently Trixie had began to join them. That morning they were having eggs, toast, hay sausage and cider. There was one problem though, Trixie was not thrilled with what was on her plate. She whined, "Twilight, can't we have pancakes instead?"

Twilight gave her a glare and replied, "Trixie, if you don't like what's on the menu, nopony ever said you had to join us."

Trixie got a smile on her face as she knew exactly what to do. She lit up her horn, struck the plate and transformed the toast into pancakes. She giggled, "Much better! Now Trixie just needs some syrup!" She turned to her glass of cider and quickly transformed it. Trixie laughed, "Well Trixie guesses she will need a glass of cider now."

While Starlight couldn't help but snicker Twilight wasn't so thrilled. She sighed, "Trixie, I know you enjoy doing that transfiguration spell that Starlight taught you but still, if you don't like what's on the menu, don't come over for breakfast."

Trixie said, "But Twilight, Starlight and Trixie are besties!"

Before Twilight could reply Spike came running into the throne room. He shouted, "Twilight, you got a letter from Princess Cadence."

Like she always does when she gets a letter from her, Twilight excitedly grabbed it and opened it. After reading it she said, "Starlight, Cadence wants you and I to head up to the Crystal Empire!"

Starlight asked, "Just us? What about the rest of our friends?"

Twilight replied, "I'm not sure, she just said that she wants the two of us to come up there."

Trixie asked, "The Great and Powerful Trixie wonders if she would be ok if Trixie came as well?"

Twilight had an unsure look on her face when Starlight replied, "Oh I bet she'd be fine with it! We are besties and I doubt she'd want us to have to be apart."

Twilight said, "I don't know." She saw both Starlight and Trixie sticking out their bottom lips which broke her, "Oh alright, Trixie can come."

Trixie hugged Twilight and cheered, "Thank you Twilight!"

Twilight, who was no fan of physical touch from Trixie pulled back. She sighed, "Don't mention it."

Spike asked, "So Twilight, when does she want us to come?"

Twilight replied, "You know, I'm not sure but how about we just head over to the train station and go now."

The other three nodded in agreement as they followed Twilight. Once they boarded the train, Starlight and Trixie began to talk with one another while Twilight began to talk to Spike. She asked, "You know Spike, this just seems odd. Normally Cadence tells me why she wants us up there."

Spike added, "And it is really odd that she didn't want all our friends to come up. It's strange that she just wanted you and Starlight to come."

Twilight replied, "It is and I really hope that she isn't upset that Starlight is bringing Trixie." She cast her gaze over towards Starlight and Trixie and continued, "I don't know why but I have a feeling that whatever Cadence wanted to see Starlight over, that Trixie is likely going to cause problems."
