The next day, Trixie woke up from her card board box and carried her little bag of money around Cantalot, buying food, water and clothes. After a while, she noticed that she barely had any bits left,

"Oh no! I'm going to have to get more!"

She cried worriedly. She looked around and saw a sturdy box and a crowed of ponies trotting around, that's when she got an Idea. She put on her brand new, shiny cloak and hat, crawled up on to the box and tried to send colourful sparks from her horn like yesterday. The sparks flew out of her horn and were lifted into the sky like fireworks, which caught the attention of several ponies. As they gasped in awe of Trixie's magical fireworks show ,they crowed round her to see more,

"Wow! What's your name?"

One of them asked. Trixie quitely gulped in fear but still spoke up,

"M-My name's Trixie, and this is my first show."

"Well it's very good! Show us more!"

Trixie smiled excitedly and tried to show everypony all the magic tricks she learnt from the library books,


"It's pure magic! And she's so young!"

"She's Great! She's Powerful! She's the Great and powerful Trixie!"


After the show, Trixie took a bow as everypony clapped the hooves. She felt more alive than ever!
She also felt a strange sensation on her flank, when she looked at it, her Cutie Mark was there!

'My Cutie Mark! I've found my Cutie mark!'

She thought excitedly. The happiness carried on when she found out how many bits were given to her, she thought had more money than her father spent in a year!



At the end of the day, Trixie slept in the same cardboard box, but with a few more things;
She bought a small, silk blanket and a torch for the night,

"This magic stuff ain't so bad," she yawned happily, "Maybe I could rent a wagon and travel the world, yeah, that's a good idea! And I could find so many friends and maybe I could *yawn* find my mama..If she's still out there...zzzz"

THE END
