Twilight stumbles upon a mare she knows all to well, but ponies can change... right?

A few friends decided it was a STELLAR idea to see who could write a ship in 30 minutes or less. So I wrote this, and now I'm sharing it with you guys and gals. Don't expect my friends stories, they'll kill me if I posted them. Any constructive criticism is appreciated.
Anyways, Twilight was off to visit her friends in Fillydelphia when she meets one pony that she thought she'd never see again.
Who say's ponies can't change? As long as this is a better love story than Twilight, I'm A-OKAY.

You Found Me

Twilight steps alongside a dirt road and up to a mystic-blue colored mare, sleeping in a brown, ragged tent.

Twilight shook the mare “Umm, excuse me miss? Sorry to wake you but… do you by any chance know the way to Fillydelphia?”

The mare lifted her head immediately, and stared into the purple unicorn’s eyes.

“You. YOU.” She said as anger filled up inside of her.

She stomped her hoof on the ground. Her eyes were tearing up, and her bloodshot was noticeable
“You RUINED my LIFE!”

Twilight’s face was engulfed with shock and awe. The once “Great and Powerful Trixie” sat there, crying, in an old worn-out tent. Her old robes were in the background, dirty and covered with mud.

“Trixie… I..”

“No one likes me anymore! As if anyone did prior to those dreadful events... None knew of Trixies story. Why I acted the way I did. But because of YOU, I lost everything! Take a look around! This is all I have.”

Twilight scanned the tent some more. One picture of Trixie in her prime was lying around in a broken frame. In the corner was an old and messy doll.

“This is… my only friend in the world.” Trixie said, lifting the doll. “I suppose you’re here to take this from me too?!”

Twilight was still shocked. This was too much to take in.

“Trixie… I had no idea it would come to this! I don’t-“

“Get out.”

“But… wait”

“Get. OUT!”

Trixie attempted to lash out at Twilight, but she side stepped and used her own magic to fling Trixie back to the tent. Unfortunately, she did it just a little too hard.

Her magic gripped Trixie’s horn, and yanked it back. Trixie was sent flying into the tent with enough force to cause it to collapse.

“Oh my… Trixie! I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean it!”

…

“Trixie…?”

*sniff*

“Trixie, are you okay?”

Trixie was lying under the covers of her wrecked tent.

*sniff*

Twilight pulled the covers off of and gasped.

Trixie sat there, holding her horn in her hooves. She was staring at it, lost in thought.

I just… broke her horn. I…

“You…monster…” said Trixie, slowly.

“This… was the last thing… I had in this…world…” Trixie’s eyes were filling with tears. She dropped her horn.

I know she’s done some bad things but… no pony deserves this…

Trixie collapsed to the ground. Crying. Crying like no pony Twilight has ever seen cry.

I can’t let this rest. My friends in Fillydelphia can wait.

Twilight steps over to the crying pony. Tears formed in her own eyes as well. Twilight bent over, and gently brushed Trixies’ unkempt mane from her face, revealing those purple eye’s of hers she knew all too well.

Trixie started to silently speak in between sobs and coughs. “Go away… I’ve had enough of this world… I want to hate you, but I can no longer muster up the energy to do anything but cry. Sit there and cry, like the pathetic little parasite I have become”

Those words stung Twilight. She finally realized something then. Maybe, if Trixie wasn’t so stuck up as she was…

They could have been friends. Friends who practice magic, practically live together… Almost like sisters...

The next thought shocked Twilight. She was worried for own sake, for even the THOUGHT of this meant she was almost insane.

More than friends...

She hugged the crying pony. Something she would never expect to do to her nemesis. But everypony needs a helping hoof in their life. And even more…

A friend.

That was why she was here in Ponyville in the first place, right? To learn about the magic of friendship?
This would make a great letter to the Princess.

“Trixie… this might seem like the last thing I would say but… I’m here for you.”

Trixie stopped crying. She was hiccupping, but tears no longer formed.

“Everypony needs a friend and… I’m here for you. I can learn to forgive and forget.”

Trixie, although she would hate to admit it, smiled at the thought.

Another chance.

“Ponies can change, Trixie. And I believe that this experience has thought you something. No matter how far down the wrong road you take, you can ALWAYS turn around.” Twilight nuzzled her former enemy’s cheek.

“Twilight… I.. You…”

Twilight looked at Trixie’s fallen horn.

“Nothing a little duct-tape can’t fix, right?” Twilight chuckled.

Trixie, through wet eyes and a smile that at last was not forced, giggled a little.

“I’ll see if Celestia can do anything about it.”

“Thank you, Twilight.” Trixie hugged her friend. “You’re the best nemesis a pony could ever ask for.”

“I have a confession however… Twilight…”

“Yes, Trixie?”

“I…well… come here.”

Twilight leaned in closer.

“Closer.”

“Alright, but if I lean in any more, we’re gonna bump heads!” Twilight laughed a little.

Trixie looked down, smiled, and looked back up.

“I…”

“Yes…?”

Trixie flipped Twilight’s head around and stared into those big, beautiful purple eyes of hers. Twilight did the same; she stared right back.

“I’ve been… having dreams about you, Twilight.”

Could she really…?

“Dreams that we were friends… Dream’s where we were comfortable around each other… Close… Dreams that…”

Trixie let out a sigh.

“Dream’s that we could do things like this, and be perfectly okay with it.”

She can...

Trixie leaned in and kissed her ex-nemesis right on the lips. She could feel the warm breeze from Twilight’s muzzle flow through her. Twilight let out an “MMMPH!” but quickly calmed down and closed her own eyes. Trixie broke the kiss, and looked down with embarrassment.

“Oh my, I’m so sorry dear! I didn’t think that… I could do it… I…”

“Trixie.”

“…yes?”

“I have to tell you something. Something that will possibly… change your life.”

“Do you like me back…?”

“Unfortunately, no. I’m sorry, Trixie… I only like stallions.”

Trixie let out a sigh, and looked down. Twilight smiled and lifted Trixie’s chin with her hoof.

“…and magical blue mares with silvery-blue manes that wear funny hats, of course.” Twilight kissed Trixie back, holding her close, they could feel each other’s heartbeats. Time stopped for both of them.

“I love you, Trixie. I took everything from you, and now I’m giving it all back.”

Trixie began to tear up. She smiled at her new best friend.

Now I can get my revenge…
