Purple storm

"Ugh, I think I got pegasi feathers stuck in my teeth."

"Again?

"Yup."

"That sounds Unfortunate."

"You're telling me!"

"Says the one who keeps getting her head stuck in the cabinet."

"You don't have to be mean!"

Trixie groaned.

Opening an eye the blue unicorn sluggishly glances over towards the sound that the voices were coming from.

Only to scream as Derpy was near inches from her face.

"Hi!" The pegasus waved. An overly cheerful grin on her face. "It's about time you woke up!"

Trixie merely blinked. Her mind still trying to piece everything there. Suddenly memories of last night came flooding in.

Widening her eyes in shock Trixie shot up. Unintentionally head-butting Derpy in the process. This caused both mares to shout in surprise. Rubbing her forehead Derpy gave the unicorn a mean-spirited expression. Witch for her meant sticking her tounge out in Trixie's general direction.

"Your awake."

Looking over Trixie saw Twilight standing off to the side. She was of course accompanied by Spike. The overly large dragon was trying and failing to get pegasi feathers from between his teeth.

It took a second for Trixie to figure out what all this meant, and when she did her expression turned into one of horror.

"WHITE!"

For a brief moment, Spike and Derpy glanced at one another. however, that ended when Twilight Sparkle herself stepped forward.

"She's dead."

W-what?" Trixie questioned. The unicorn had trouble processing the mare's words. In response Twilight paused. However, it wasn't long before the mare continued speaking. "After the guards were dealt with I sent Spike and Derpy to your house". "I deemed this a logical conclusion since the guards that attacked most likely knew where you resided."

Suddenly Twilight"s horn lit up. Said action caused Trixie to immediately tense up. A second later a small brown box appeared on Trixie's bed.

"This is all they found."

Trixie stared.

It was a long moment before the unicorn reached out and took the box in her hooves. Opening said item with her magic Trixie looks inside.

The mare immediately regretted doing so.

Inside said box was something Trixie was not prepared for.

A feather.

Said feather was white. However, that wasn't what caught Trixie's attention. No, it was because of one fact and one fact only.

It was covered In blood.

Gently lifting it with her magic Trixie silently stared at it. The mare was currently going through a whole herd of emotions. Shock, sadness, regret, however, one emotion quickly rose to the top. An emotion Trixie hasn't felt in a long, long time. An emotion that can only be described in one word.

Rage.

THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!

Suddenly and without warning Trixie lunged at the purple mare. Wanting nothing more than to rip her apart until there was nothing left. Twilight for her part stayed motionless. Almost like she was expecting this type of scenario ahead of time. Screaming in rage Trixie's horn glowed.

Only for something grey to collide with her instead.

Hitting the wall hard Trixie was momentarily stunned. At least until a Christal-shaped hoof pressed itself against her throat. This was quickly followed up by a familiar voice. However, it was different. More firm, serious, and worse of all?

Insanely protective.

"Don't. Touch. Twilight"

Trixie froze.

The rage she was feeling mere moments ago instantly vanished. In its place was something Trixie was all too familiar with.

Fear.

Looking directly into her eyes was Derpy. However, said pegasus looked different. Let's just say if looks could kill Trixie would have most likely have died in the brutalist way imaginable.

Witch in Itself was pretty mild in comparison.

Igniting her horn Trixie tried shoving the mare away from her. Only to suddenly feel extremely weak. Of course, it didn't take long for her to notice Derpy's glowing hoof. A glow that was similar to that of her magic. Suffice to say it didn't take Trixie long to piece everything together.

Somehow, someway Derpy's hoof was absorbing magic.

Or to put it more bluntly her magic.

"That's enough" Twilight spoke. The mare having apparent this moment to intervene.

"Yeah, Derpy we can't just kill her." Spike shrugged. "At least not when she can be even remotely useful."

Derpy didn't even acknowledge the duo. Instead, she simply chooses to stare Trixie directly in the eyes. A tactic that was unnerving to the unicorn, to say the least. "I'm only gonna say this once and only once" Derpy stated. Sounding like a completely different mare at this point. So much so that Trixie briefly wonderd if she had any alternate personalities that she wasn't aware of. After all, she never saw the pegasi act like this before. Even when fighting her enemies.

"If you ever intentionally hurt Twilight or Spike" the mare paused. Letting the threat simply speak for itself. Not wanting to find out what the mare had in store Trixie nodded.

"Good"

The pegasi then let Trixie fall to the ground. The blue unicorn immediately began gasping for air. Smirking to herself Derpy flew over to Twilight. Putting a protective wing over the unicorn's shoulder. Twilight merely gazed at the pegasi for a few short moments. Spike meanwhile felt completely left out. At least until Derpy flew over and planted a kiss on his cheek.

"Hey! The dragon shouted. He immediately began rubbing his cheek in an attempt to hide his blush. Of course, that only caused Derpy to giggle.

"Aww your so cute!"

"I am not cute". "I am the exact opposite of cute."

"Uhuh" Derpy merely rolled her eyes.

"I am!" Spike shouted. The dragon throwing his claws up in exaggeration.

This of course started a small argument between the two.

Twilight meanwhile walked over to Trixie. Said mare was now deadly silent. Tears pouring down her face. Looking down at her Twilight spoke. "I am not going to pretend that I know what you're going through."

Trixie didn't respond.

"Nor am I going to say that I care."

The blue unicorn immediately began to glare at her. Hatred mixed with rage clearly showing in her eyes. Not phased in the slightest Twilight continued. "You have two options."

"One you can stay here and mourn for the rest of your life."

Trixie opened her mouth.

"Or two you can take revenge on the mare that killed her."

Trixie froze.

Twilight waited.

Memories of the past began to flood Trixie's mind. However, one memory, in particular, stood out among the rest.

The day they first met.

÷÷÷÷÷==÷÷÷÷========

Trixie shivered. The filly not having anything that can remotely be of use to her. Especially when dealing with a sudden rainstorm. The filly spent a majority of the day pick-pocketing unsuspecting ponies. At least until the guards found her. Fortunately, she was able to escape. Unfortunately, the colts and fillies she was accompanying weren't so lucky. Regardless the filly knew that her chances of seeing them again were slim to none. That was somewhat of a bummer to the blue unicorn. Especially since she rather liked the group. Especially the two mares that she quickly made friends with. What were their names again? One started with an L while the other started with a B.

Suddenly thunderstruck. Causing the filly to jump in surprise. Shivering Trixie began looking around for any form of shelter.

"Hey!

Blinking Trixie glanced over her shoulder. There she saw a pony sticking her head out of the dumpster. Said pony looked to be a filly around her age. Sticking a hoof out the filly gestured for Trixie to jump in. Not wanting the spend another second in the freezing rain the unicorn took her offer.

Jumping in Trixie watched as the filly closed the lid. Once she was done the area around them was covered in darkness however Trixie was able to make out her savior's shape.

"What's your name?"

Trixie blinked. Having been somewhat caught off guard by the question. "I am the Great and Powerful Trixie."

In the dark, she heard the pony giggle.

"Really? My name's White Flower."

"Interesting."

Silence fell between them.

However, it wasn't awkward. Quite the opposite. With that being said the silence was broken when the filly noticed Trixie's shivering.

"Here."

A second later The unicorn felt a wing wrap itself around her. The sensation was something entirely new to Trixie. With that being said the filly couldn't help but inch closer.

When White noticed this she let out another giggle. "You look pretty for a unicorn."

Trixie couldn't help but smile.

"I know."

÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷

Taking a deep breath the mare nodded. Her face was now filled with determination. The mare knew she couldn't fix the past, but she'll be damned if she lets White's killer walk away scot-free. Especially considering the amount of pain the pegasus must have been under. Seeing this Twilight nods.

"Very well."

With that, she turns. Gesturing for Derpy and Spike to follow the duo began making their way out of the room. Trixie watched them leave. She waited until they were out of earshot. Once they were Trixie did the only thing she could at that moment.

She began to cry.

÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷======

"You know I almost feel bad for lying to her."

When both mare's looked over at him Spike shrugged.

"Almost."

Derpy shook her head. An irate expression on her face. It was clear to both of them that the pegasus have yet to forget about the incident that transpired moments before. "Who cares? It's not like she'll live long anyway.

"Our objective is complete" Twilight spoke. In doing so she immediately gained the pair's attention.

"Now it is time to enact phase two."
