Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Trixie and Discord were in Trixie's.....not so organized wagon.

"Wow this place is a mess!!"

"HEY!!! WATCH YOUR TONGUE!! YOU'RE THE ONE THAT ASKED TO STAY HERE FOR THE NIGHT, SO I WOULD LIKE SOME RESPECT!!!!"

"Yeah that's true, but let me help organize a few things here....."

Suddenly flying cats came and started organizing the pigsty that was in Trixie's "magical" place. After a few seconds the place was organized neatly and there was a big door that was in one of the walls.

"Wow Discord.....man having you around is a lifesaver, but I have to ask what is that big door over there?"

"It's.....Actually I don't want to tell you, let's open the door to find out."

"Ok..........." Trixie said as she slowly opened the door for anticipation.

In the room there was 2 king size beds in the middle and on both ends of the beds there were draws that were filled with all her magic gear. The bed that was on the right had a bed cover that was covered in stars that were the same as Trixie's cutie marks. The bed on the left had a cover that was filled with flying bananas.

"I decided to move most of your magic equipment into these draws since it would give me some space to add beds like this in the middle.

"The great Trixie commends you for your service."

"My command is all yours m'lady." Discord said as he bowed his head towards Trixie.

Trixie then yawned as she sat on her bed.

"Well it's time for the great Trixie to get her beauty sleep I suggest you do the same."

"Ok well let Discord, the lord of chaos, put you into some comfortable clothes before you sleep."

And with that it was obvious what was going to happen next as Trixie was immediately in her bright pajamas and had her sleeping mask that was on her head. Trixie smiled as she covered her eyes with her sleeping mask.

"Goodnight Discord."

"Goodnight to you too Trixie."

Trixie went under her sheets and layed in her bed while Discord curled up like a dog on his bed. The Draconequus and the blue mare both fell into a nice peaceful sleep.

The bright yellow sun glowed in the sky which caused Discord to wake up from his deep slumber.

"Morning already? Man that Celestia need to make a schedule on when to raise the sun because this is too early!!!"

Discord looked at his left to see Trixie still asleep unfazed from the intense glow from the sun.

"Hmmm....I guess I should start making her some breakfast before I wake her up."

Discord then quickly made up his bed and teleported himself out of the wagon to think what he should spawn for Trixie's breakfast.

"Let me see what is Trixie's favorite thing to eat for breakfast....? Damn!! I'm stumped!! I guess I could read her mind to see what she like....NO!!! I shouldn't read her mind while she's sleeping that would be not only rude but also an invasion of privacy. I'll just ask Starlight what she likes!!"

Discord teleported himself to the place where he knew Starlight would be. After 5 minutes of searching he finally found Starlight in the teacher's lounge.

"Oh hey Discord, didn't expect you to come here!"

"Yeah I didn't expect to come here either but here I am." Discord said with a weak grin.

"Ok..........so was there a reason you came here to see me in particular?

"Oh right I came here to ask you what Trixie liked to eat for breakfast since you're her friend and all."

Starlight then spit her hot coco at Discord from what he just said to her.

"WAIT, DID YOU JUST SAID YOU CAME HERE TO ASK WHAT IS TRIXIE'S FAVORITE THING TO EAT FOR BREAKFAST?!!"

"And did you just spat hot chocolate on my face?" Discord asked sarcastically as he then wringled himself like washcloth to get the hot chocolate off his body.

"So..Sorry I was just not expecting you to come here to ask something like that for Trixie. Usually you would come here to start chaos since you're the lord of chaos and all."

"Well yeah key word being USUALLY but I've changed since then so that shouldn't even be relevant am I correct?"

"I'm just sayi-"

"Look just tell me what's Trixie's favorite thing to eat for breakfast!"

"Ok......Well her favorite meal to eat for breakfast is pancakes, hash browns, bacon, and sausage."

"Bacon and sausage on the same plate? Very zany.....I like it!"

"Yeah Trixie goes crazy for meat on any meal."

"STAR SERVANTS, WRITE THAT DOWN FOR ME PLEASE!!"

5 star servants with chocolate mustaches appeared with a list in their grasp. Once they wrote down that Trixie likes meat they then disappeared immediately afterwards.

"Well Starlight I think I should get going, Trixie is going to wake up soon and I want to surprise her."

"Wake up soon........? WAIT DISCORD ARE YO-"

It was too late as Discord had already vanished from the teacher's lounge.

"Damn! I wanted to ask him if he was living with Trixie now......."

Trixie was in her bed dreaming about how amazing she did with her magic show and how popular she became in Canterlot. She was even more popular than Twilight Sparkle for crying out loud. It was everything Trixie wanted, recognition of how much of a great magician she really is. It's unfortunate it only came down to a dream as she heard little bells that woke her up from her magical world.

"Errr......who's ringing that bell?!"

"Me of course!!"

"Oh good morning to you too Discord. One quick question though, were the bells really necessary for me to wake up?"

"Well you know me!"

"Right."

"But the real reason I woke you up with my little jingle bells was because I have a surprise breakfast for you."

"Really? Well I doubt the breakfast you prepared for me will really surprise some pony like myse-"

Trixie was interrupted as a plate with blueberry pancakes, nice golden hash browns, grilled sausage, and red juicy bacon that was beautifully seated right next to the sausage.

"........."

"You don't like it? I'm sorry Starlight told me you liked pancakes although she didn't say exactly what kind of pancakes you liked so I decided to go with blueberry since you're.....blue and all. I added the hash browns since Starlight said you liked that too. Finally the sausage and bacon were there since Starlight told me you're really into meat. But since it seems like you don't like it I'll change it real-"

"No, it's amazing. I'm more so surprised that you would go through all the time to try and surprise me when I know you can do basically anything to impress me."

"You're not wrong. Anyways, here's your breakfast."

He didn't know why but every time she was happy he would also reflect the same emotion as well. He had never felt this feeling before but whatever it was he wanted the feeling to stay.

"Hey Discord are you going to eat something?"

"Oh...um yeah I'm going to eat some cereal."

"Ok. Well after you're finished help me get the stuff ready for practice today."

Discord nodded. When he was finished his cereal he did what Trixie told her to do. After Discord got all the stuff ready he then head over to where Trixie was so that she could check if he had the right things with him.

"Ok Trixie is that everything we need?"

"Yes now let's head outside and practice!"

Before Trixie opened the door to leave the wagon, she realized that she was still in her pajamas.

"Oh right....can't have myself looking like this in front of every pony. I'm going to get my magician hat and my cape from my closet."

"Yeah about that, I feel your style of clothing is getting kind of stale....."

"TRIXIE'S STYLE IS NEVER STALE!!! NOTHING IS BETTER THAN MY MAGICIAN HAT AND MY FAVORITE CAPE!!!"

"Wanna bet?" Discord said as a smug grin appeared on his face.

"DON'T YOU DARE!!"

Discord ignored the flustered mare and snapped his fingers to change Trixie into clothes that would impress Rarity herself.

"Wow......this is way better!"

"Told ya!!"

"Alright! I'm still keeping my hat and cape in the closet though!!"

"Ok if you say so!"

"Now let's go outside."

The duo walked out of the wagon and to the backyard and practiced their first act, pulling a rabbit out of the hat.

"So you're going to pull a rabbit out of your hat?......."

"That's what I said didn't I Discord?"

"Yeah I know, but it just seems cliché don't you think?"

"Even if something is cliché it still can work. I mean look at other magicians doing that same act and still getting praised for it. Same thing can happen to me."

"That's true but you aren't like other magicians, you should try being more unique so you don't seem like the cliché magician archetype and ponies will take you more seriously. It's the reason why I changed the clothes the way I did. Plus do you even have a bunny?

"Of course I do!"

Trixie grabbed a animal cage that revealed a bunny inside.

"Just to let you know it was a pain stealing a bunny from Fluttershy's cottage so you better not lose this bunny or I swear to Celestia I'll kill you and burn your corpses!!"

"OK! Relax Trixie, I won't lose your bunny!! WAIT....DID YOU SAID YOU STOLE A BUNNY FROM FLUTTERSHY'S COTTAGE?!!!"

"My only reply to that will be, don't ask questions you don't want answers to. Now hold my hat while I put this bunny inside!"

"Ok..." Discord said uneasy about what Trixie said but still focused at the task at hand and grabbed Trixie's hat to let her stick the bunny inside like she wanted.

Trixie then put the bunny in her hat and took a few steps back.

"Uhhhh....Trixie what are you doing?"

"I'm practicing my speech for when I perform this act."

"Is that really necessary? I mean you're already announcing yourself when you enter the stage, so I see no reason for you to make a speech about every magical act you do. That's where the saying show don't tell comes in."

"DONT QUESTION THE GREAT TRIXIE!!"

"I'M SORRY GEEZ!! I'm just trying to help!!"

"Well you can help by not critiquing every little thing that I do and just go along with it!"

"You're right, I'm sorry continue."

"Thank you!" Trixie said as she got herself ready and then made her speech.

"Hey every pony! For this act I'll do the classic pull the rabbit out of the hat! But this time it'll be different since you'll have the magnificent Trixie perform it in front of your eyes!!"

Trixie walked towards where Discord was standing and started reaching for the inside of her hat.

"Now watch as Trixie pulls out a bunny that'll make the Easter Bunny cry himself to slee-"

Trixie stopped as when she put her hoof in the middle of the hat she felt nothing but the flat surface of the bottom of the hat.

"D-Discord!! WHERE'S THE BUNNY?!

Before Discord could answer the bunny hopped up and slapped Trixie so hard it left a big bruise on her cheek. Trixie screamed from the pain the little white demon gave her. The bunny started laughing at Trixie who was laying on the ground unconscious.

"How dare you!!!"

The bunny stopped laughing and turned around to see a very bellicose draconequus behind it. In desperation the bunny tried to run away, but was paralyzed by Discord's severe magic.

"YOU'RE GOING TO DIE YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!" Discord shouted as he levitated the bunny towards him.

When the bunny was 1 inch away from Discord, Discord grabbed the bunny with his bird hand and ripped out his head with his lion paw. Discord dropped what was left of the bunny as blood spattered all over the ground. After a few seconds Trixie woke up from her unconscious nap that the bunny had given her. Trixie turned around to see what happened only to find out the fate of the bunny.

"Holy...."

"T-Trixie! I-I can explain! It was an accident, I SWEAR!!"

"Di-Discord...............THAT WAS AWESOME!!!"

"I know you're upset Trixie, but let me-WAIT WHAT?!" Discord asked baffled at the fact that Trixie was happy that he murdered a bunny in plain sight.

"You killed that dumbass bunny for me which I'm really grateful for!"

"So let me get this straight. You're not mad that I just committed murder on a little bunny?!"

"The only thing that made me mad was the fact that I wasn't the one to tear that prick limb from limb!"

Discord was very disturbed by how hostile Trixie was, but at the same time there was also a huge part of him that loved every second of it. This feeling was interrupted though as Discord remembered something that Trixie said earlier.

"WAIT!! What will we tell Fluttershy about her bunny?!"

"Nothing! We'll keep this secret between you and me. No pony else will know about it. It's important that this incident stays confidential! GOT IT?!"

"I got it but....I feel bad that were lying to Fluttershy about what happened to her bunny."

"COME ON DISCORD!! There's a lot of bunnies in the forest that Fluttershy could find and doesn't she have like a million of bunnies in her cottage?! Yeah I'm pretty sure she can just suck it up and move on. Plus isn't this stuff what you're born to do anyways?!"

"Well I'm trying to correct all the mistakes I've done in the past. I'm trying to show every pony even Twilight and her friends how good of a creature I can be!"

Trixie then started laughing spontaneously while tears of laughter started to fall out of her eyes.

"WHAT'S SO FUNNY?! I'M BEING SERIOUS!!"

"What's funny is that you actually believe that becoming less of yourself and more of what Twilight and her friends want will make ponies accept you into their civilizations! All they're doing is convincing you all these lies, so that they can manipulate you and use you for their own means. LOOK AT WHAT THEY DID TO STARLIGHT!! She used to be my best friend, but after Twilight made her the principal of her little school of lies Starlight barely has time to hang out with me and only has time using Twilight's fucked up morals to control every innocent student to worship her and her gang!! It was obvious the main reason she did that was so that Starlight wouldn't be around me since Twilight doesn't trust me at all even though I spent years trying to prove to Twilight that I've changed!!! The same is happening with your friends as well!!"

Discord was stunned that Twilight would manipulated his friends, so that they would be more apart from him. Discord did everything he could to reform himself yet Twilight and her friends still doesn't trust him enough to where they took his friends away. Even worst they were doing the same thing to Trixie.

"Trixie I'm so sorry about all the horrible things Twilight did to you!!"

"It's ok because that's the reason why I'm doing this magic show at Canterlot, so that I can show every pony how great of a pony I am and take away all of Twilight's fame and glory she has right now!!" And besides what's the point of trying to change yourself if no one cares?"

"You do make a great point Trixie!"

"I'm glad that you agree because I have one more favor that I'm going to ask you to do for the great Trixie!"

"Oh what is it?"

Trixie smiled as she whispered into Discord ear of the request she wanted. This request disabled his ability to say anything other than:

"WHAT THE HELL?!"
