All ponies know that Trixie is an exhibited. But what if she had a reason to do that and be like that?

After the “Boast Bustters” events, Trixie felt humiliated and depressed. But that was not the only thing that happened. Thanks to Ursa Minor, she has lost her 'home' and now has no place to live. Luna, who was taking a night walk, sees Trixie crying and spends time with her.

In this AU, Trixie has never dueled with Twilight with the Alicorn amulet. Instead, she goes to Twilight the same night she was humiliated, and apologizes for what she did.

I'm worth it?

When Trixie was well away from Ponyville, she stopped running. But it began to walk. Tears began to trickle from her eyes. She approached a river that was near from her. She lay on the grass and began to cry. It just wasn’t fair. The ponies didn’t understand why she was being displayed. No one knows what your foalhood was like. Throughout her foalhood she was bullied at the School for Gifted Unicorn. She didn’t understand why she suffered from it. She never did anything bad and yet Trixie was bullied by the other foals. Memories of her childhood arose.

Trixie had his cape and wizard’s hat on. And she was doing a magic show for foals. The foals were in awe and Trixie had her eyes closed, a toothy grin, and her front hooves raised.

“Well. Well”

Trixie opened her eyes as her smile faded. She looked at the owners of the voice. They were two foals. One was brown and the other was yellow. Both had their Cutie Marks. They smiled wickedly, “Well, well. If not the useless little Trixie ”

Trixie was offended by the comment, “no. Isn’t true. Trixie is talented”

The yellow foal approached Trixie, “That’s a lie, Trixie. Your parents think you’re useless. You should never have been born”

Trixie, with tears in her eyes, ran off and went to a corner.

Trixie kept crying at this memory. But that wasn’t the only thing that happened to her. Much worse things have happened to her.

Trixie was in the classroom and she was doing the work. The yellow colt crumpled a paper, made a paper ball and played at Trixie. Trixie felt the paper ball. But decided to ignore. The yellow foal looked annoyed that he couldn’t get Trixie’s attention. But he soon had a much better idea. He tore several sheets of paper from his notebook, made paper balls and threw it at the teacher, who was writing on the board with a white chalk. The teacher stopped what she was doing and looked at the students angrily, “Who threw paper balls at me?!”

The yellow colt replied, “It was Trixie, teacher. I saw her playing at you”

Trixie looked at the yellow colt before looking at the teacher, “Teacher, Trixie didn’t do that. He is lying”

The teacher approached Trixie, “It’s no use lying, Trixie. If Scissors Cut said it was you. I will believe him. To the principal’s office! Now!”

“B-but, teacher ...” Trixie was almost crying now.

“Now!!” exclaimed the teacher before taking Trixie with her magic, opening the door, throwing Trixie out of the room and closing the door.

Trixie looked sadly at the door. Why did she suffer so much? Why didn’t anyone believe her? Would it ever end?

Trixie cried even more. These memories only reminded her of how much she suffered. Why didn’t anyone help her? Why had Celestia never been there for her when Trixie was suffering? Suddenly she heard wings flutter. Trixie looked up at the sound and was surprised to see a light blue-haired Alicorn, light blue mane and blue perk. The alicorn looked worried about Trixie, “Are you alright, subject?”

Trixie looked surprised, but soon became sad, “no…” she cried again.

The alicorn approached Trixie, “What bothers you?”

“You wouldn’t understand what Trixie went through in foalhood…”

“Trixie, I’m the princess of the night. And it’s like having to help ponies through what they’re going through. You can trust me. I won’t laugh”, said the alicorn.

Trixie stopped crying and looked at the alicorn, “Luna…”

Luna smiled, “that’s my name. How do you know?”

Trixie sat down while wiping her tears with a hoof, “Dad told Trixie your story. Trixie felt sorry for you. Because Trixie loves your night”

Luna smiled, “I didn’t know there was a pony who liked my night. Thanks”

Trixie smiled, but soon became sad again. Luna was worried, “Trixie. Would you like to tell me about what bothers you?”

Trixie looked undecided, “Trixie doesn’t know if she should talk. Trixie is afraid that you laugh at what she went through as a filly”

Luna sat next to Trixie, “you don’t need to tell me what you went through in foalhood if you don’t want to. But if you want to tell me about what bothers you, you can”

Trixie didn’t want to tell her what she went through as a filly, but she would like to tell Luna what she went through today, “Trixie would like to say what she went through today”

“I’m listening”, said Luna, ready to listen.

“This afternoon, Trixie went to Ponyville to do magic tricks. Trixie hoped they liked the magic that she did. But Trixie think they didn’t appreciate it”, said Trixie.

Luna felt pity. She felt related to Trixie. Because your night wasn’t appreciated in the past.

“When night came, a Little Bear attacked Ponyville. Trixie tried to stop her. But she failed. But then that lavender-colored unicorn came and managed to get rid of the Little Bear. And everypony applauded her! And they still called me a displayed! They don’t even know that Trixie was bullied!!” Trixie started to cry.

Luna was shocked by the last three words, “wait. Have you been bullied?”

Trixie stopped crying.

Damn it…

“Is that why you didn’t want to tell me what you went through as a filly?” asked Luna.

“Yes, Luna. When Trixie was at Celestia School, Trixie was bullied. Two foals were bullying me”, said Trixie.

“Do you still know their looks? Because if you still know, I can talk to them”, said Luna with a smile.

Trixie shook her head, “The two foals must have grown up. They will probably no longer be living with their parents. It wouldn’t be worth it”

“I would do anything to make you feel better, Trixie”, said Luna, wanting to help Trixie in some way.

“Better not, Luna…” Trixie cried again.

Luna didn’t know what to do. She wanted to help Trixie somehow. But how? “Sorry to ask that. But where do you live?”

Trixie, still in tears, replied, “Big Bear smashed Trixie’s house with her huge paw. Trixie has no home now ”

Luna felt sorry for Trixie. She never imagined that there would be a pony that would lose a home. She would like to help Trixie with this. But how? Suddenly she had an idea, “I have an idea, Trixie”

Trixie, still crying, looked at Luna, “what’s your idea?”

“Would you like to live with me in the castle?”

Trixie was surprised, “what? Why?”

“You lost your house, Trixie. I wish you could live in the castle to have a place to live”, repilied Luna.

Trixie didn’t know if she should accept the offer, “I don’t know...”

“Come on, Trixie. I’m offering you the chance to live somewhere”, said Luna, with a small smile.

Tears streamed from Trixie’s eyes before hugging Luna, “thank you…”

Luna smiled and returned the hug, “You’re welcome, Trixie”

After a few minutes of hug. They left the hug, “Before we go to Canterlot, I’d like to apologize to a pony”

“Sure. Who is this pony?” asked Luna.

“Twilight Sparkle”, answered Trixe before walking toward Ponyville. Luna followed her.

Twilight Sparkle was reading a book in bed. She couldn’t deny that she was having fun. Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door, “I’ll answer it”, said Twilight Sparkle as she descended from the bed and the stairs. When she reached the door, Twilight opened the door with her magic and was surprised by what she saw.

“Trixie? Luna? What are you two doing here?” asked Twilight Sparkle.

Trixie approached, “Twilight, Trixie wants to apologize for the way she acted”

Twilight Sparkle was undecided, “I can even forgive you. But why did you do it? Why did you brag?”

Trixie was fighting now not to cry, “Twilight, Trixie was bullied at Princess Celestia’s school. And I suffered so much that it made me feel low on self-esteem. And I thought that if I showed off, it would make my self-esteem improve”

Twilight Sparkle didn’t know that Trixie was bullied. And she didn’t know that Trixie’s reason for showing was because of something she suffered in childhood at school, “Trixie, I’m so sorry for what you suffered. Is there anything I can do to make you better?”

“No. Thank you, Twilight. Luna has already helped me”, replied Trixie, now smiling a little.

“How did Luna help you?” asked Twilight Sparkle.

“Luna invited Trixie to live with her at the castle”, replied Trixie, now looking at Luna with a smile. “And Trixie Accepted”

Twilight Sparkle smiled. She hoped that now Trixie would have a better life now.
