Trixie wants to be friends with the moon

Trixie looked at the moon. She couldn't help, but notice that on the moon she had a silhouette of a mare. She looked at her father, "Daddy, why is there a silhouette of a mare on the moon?"

Jack Pot looked at Trixie, “well, there’s a story behind”

Trixie cheered up, “could you tell me?”

Jack pot laughed at Trixie’s reaction, “okay, okay”

Trixie focused on her father as he told the story, ’Once upon a time, in the enchanted kingdom of Equestria, two princess sisters who ruled together and guaranteed harmony to every kingdom’

’To do this, the older sister used her unicorn powers to raise the sun to the heavens, and the younger brought the moon to initiate the night’

Trixie smiled as she heard that the younger sister bring the night. She always loved the night.

‘Thus, the two sisters maintained the balance of the kingdom and its subjects that varied several types of ponies’

‘But as time went by, the younger sister became resentful. The ponies enjoyed and played during the day that the older sister brought, but at night, they were tired and only slept during their beautiful night’

Trixie felt pity and sorrow for the princess of the night. She wanted to have been there to show the princess that she loved the night.

’Until one day, the younger sister refused to move the moon and allow the dawn. The older sister tried to reason with her, but her resentful youthful heart had turned her into a frightening dark unicorn: Nightmare Moon! She swore she would bring darkness and that the night would be eternal’

Trixie felt sad. Why did the ponies not enjoy the night of the younger sister? If they had done that, none of this would have happened.

‘Reluctantly, the older sister resorted to the most powerful magic known in the realm of ponies: The Elements of Harmony! Using the magic of the elements of harmony, she defeated the younger sister and permanently imprisoned her on the moon. The older sister assumed responsibility for both: Sun and moon. And the harmony has been kept in Equestria for generations since then‘, finished Jack Pot.

Jack Pot looked at Trixie and noticed tears in his daughter’s eyes, “why Daddy? Why did she have to be banned? Couldn’t the older sister have talked?”

Jack Pot was surprised by this, “why do you ask that?”

Trixie almost screamed in surprise, “Don’t you feel sorry for the younger sister? She has been banned and has no friends. Trixie wants to become her friend!”

Jack Pot put a hull on Trixie, “daughter, why would you want to be friends with a monster?”

“She’s not a monster, she’s just misunderstood!” exclaimed Trixie.

“How are you going to the moon, Trixie?” His father asked. “Using teleportation spell?”

“Yes, Dad,” replied Trixie. “Trixie will be friends with the younger sister!”

“Trixie, you will not,” said Jack Pot. “It is impossible for a unicorn to teleport so far, especially to the moon”

But, Trixie denied, “but Trixie will think of a solution! Trixie will befriend the younger princess!”

It was already the next day, and Trixie would go to the library to search more about spells that could make her go to the moon. She wasn't a fan of the library. She didn’t like to read so much, but if she wanted to go to the moon to make friends with the princess, she would do anything. Trixie entered the library and went to the spell session. She found a book called, ’All about teleportation spells’

Trixie brightened and picked up the book. She went to the table to begin reading. She just hoped she could find what she expected.

It was already dusk, and Trixie didn't find what she was looking for in the book, “it’s not possible! I read the whole book and found nothing about teleporting to the moon!”

The mare from the library came up to her, “shh!”

Trixie covered her mouth with a hull. She forgot she was in a library. She put the book back on the bookshelf and went to her house.

Trixie woke up and went to take her breakfast, she would try to look for more books on teleportation.

Jack Pot was on the table and looked at Trixie, “Good morning, Trixie. What are you planning to do today?”

“Trixie goes to the library, Daddy”, replied Trixie.

Jack Pot smiled. He didn’t know why his daughter started wanting to go to the library, but he wouldn't judge her.

Trixie was in the library, looking for another book on teleportation, but she didn’t find it. She sighed. It seemed that the book she read yesterday was the only one that talked about teleportation. She left the library, sadly. She didn’t want to give up, but it seemed impossible. How she was looking at the floor she bumped into a lavender-colored unicorn filly with a backpack of books, “sorry, I didn’t see you”, said Trixie, standing up.

Twilight Sparkle got up and put the books back in the backpack, “It’s okay. I was reading while I was walking”

“What’s your name?” asked Trixie.

“Twilight Sparkle”, replied Twilight Sparkle.

Trixie was curious, “What book are you reading?”

Twilight Sparkle took the book off the ground with its magic and read the title, “astronomical events and constellations”

Twilight Sparkle put the book back in her backpack, “I’m going to return the book to the library now”

“Okay, Twilight”, said Trixie before walking again.

It was already night, and Trixie looked at the moon sadly, I’m sorry, there’s no way I can go to the moon...

Jack Pot went to Trixie, “looking again at the mare on the moon?”

Trixie took her eyes off the moon, “huh?”

“That’s the name that was given to Nightmare Moon when she was permanently banned on the moon, Trixie”, replied Jack Pot.

Trixie was about to cry, but she held it. She couldn’t imagine what it would be like to be alone in a place permanently without someone to keep company with. Trixie looked back at the moon. Suddenly she saw a shooting star pass by. She looked at Jack Pot, “Dad, is it true that if you make a wish for a shooting star, the request is made?”

“Yes, Trixie,” replied Jack Pot. “But you have to talk”

“Can you tell later that she passed?” Trixie asked. Because if she didn’t, then that meant she missed the chance to go to the moon to make friendship with the mare on the moon.

“Yes, Trixie,” replied Jack Pot. “It’s possible”

Trixie brightened. Maybe she’ll get a chance to meet the mare on the moon. Jack Pot left the room and closed the door to watch TV in the living room. When Trixie heard the sound of TV being turned on, she returned to look at the moon, “I want to go to the moon”

Suddenly Trixie felt as if something was catching her. She was worried. Suddenly, she disappeared.

Nightmare Moon was on the moon, sadly. She just wanted her subjects to love her night. Why did they love the day more than the night? She let out a sigh, knowing that perhaps now everypony would be stay awake in the night that her ‘sister’ was bringing to them all. Suddenly, a glare appeared. Nightmare Moon had to close her eyes, because the light was very strong. After the light disappeared, a noise was heard and the flash disappeared. Nightmare Moon opened her eyes and was surprised at what she saw. There was a blue unicorn filly. She wondered how the filly arrived on the moon. Nightmare Moon heard the foal’s voice, “Did I succeed?” asked Trixie.

Trixie looked around and jumped with joy as she saw that she was on the moon, “my Celestia! I did it! I did it!”

Trixie looked at the alicorn that was watching curiously and went up to Nightmare Moon, “hi, mare on the moon. I’m Trixie, and you?”

Nightmare Moon was surprised to hear the filly talking to her, “how did you get here on the moon?”

Trixie smiled, “Daddy told Trixie your story. Then, Trixie felt sad that you were trapped permanently on the moon and asked for a shooting star so Trixie could keep you company. Because after all, Trixie loves the night "

When Trixie finished telling the story. Nightmare Moon began to cry with happiness. No pony ever loved her night, and now that pony named Trixie was saying she loved her night? “D-do you love my night?”

Trixie continued to smile, “Of course. Trixie loves her night and wants to be your friend”, Trixie went to Nightmare Moon and hugged Nightmare Moon in her hooves. Nightmare Moon was confused. She glanced at Trixie’s side and noticed that Cutie Mark was a crescent moon with a wand. Nightmare Moon smiled at Trixie’s Cutie Mark. But soon, Nightmare Moon’s smile faded, “Why do you want to be my friend?”

Trixie looked up at Nightmare Moon, still smiling, “because Trixie always loved your night, and i wants to keep you company on the moon”

Nightmare Moon smiled. At least there was now a pony that liked her and her night.
