From Darkness to Lightness

by AmbientWaves


The Start of the story.

It was a cold, rainy, dark and stormy night one of the worst in Ponyville for a long, long time, even the trees were having a hard time staying straight up, when all was heard outside was gushing of wind and the sound of trees and leaves swaying side to side from the wind pushing them and very rarely the sound of trees crashing in the distance that would echoed though ponyville

"I-i-i-its f-f-freezing.." Trixie said with a stuttering voice from the coldness over Equestria near Ponyville, while slowly making her way though whitetail forest heading where she last saw light and civilization over at Ponyville. Trixie jumped up in the air after hearing a tree fall down right behind her making her stumble over when she landed on the ground in sock.

"t-t-thank C-celestia I-I-I moved from t-there" Trixie let out a happy sigh before feeling herself get stopped. she looked back noticing her cape got stuck under the falling tree. She put her hooves on her torn cape while her magic focused on keeping her signature hat on her head, a rip noise was heard, while her most favorite cape was turn in half. meanwhile she continued shuffling to the lights slowly getting brighter and more illuminating with more buildings in site. Then she froze up remembering all the grief and panic she did throughout Ponyville with the enslaving and the Ursa Minor while she thought to herself "I can't go back there..they..they hate me for what I'v done..the punishment might be worse then the bloody cold...." her body continued walking on its own the only thing on her mind really was survive. "At least...you will be able to be warm for a bit throughout the punishment given..." she slowly reached the bridge over Ponyville, while she looked at her coat dripping with water not helping as the cold wind brushed past her cold body feeling the unrelenting weather.

"W-w-where do I-I-I G-Go" Trixie continued the stuttering in the coldness slowly waking into the town, her steps somewhat slowly getting smaller and smaller while she walked her body wanting to now give up and let the weather claim her body her eyes somewhat narrowing in field of view..everything becoming a slight blur slowly, as her body shuts down..the only thing she could hear was her name being called by a familiar voice..no voices..before blackness and darkness.

"Trixie, Trixie" Twilight called out running over to the mare in a small raincoat with a large umbrella followed Twilight.

"Oh my celestia..its Trixie!" Twilight's magic dropped the magical umbrella to pick up Trixie Lulamoon placing her on her back, instantly feeling the cold and wetness of Trixie, she knew there wasn't much time left. She sprinted full on towards where her house with the nearly frozen to death Trixie on her back, almost falling while she reached the library door knocking on it frantically hoping spike will open the door and fast.

"Library closed for.." Spike was cut off talking when he opened the door, as twilight fly's in towards a fire with Trixie on her back using her magic to place her down in front of the fire.

"SPIKE, Get a blanket!" Twilight called out to spike who just nodded running up the stairs from knowing that it was twilight's urgent voice. Spike came back down the stairs with a nice warm blanket from twilight's be, as spike felt it pulled from hes hand in almost a second from twilight resting it over Trixie.

"Spike, run a warm bath please and hurry!" twilight called out to spike again in the same semi aggressive and serious tone. Spike instantly walked into the bathroom turning on the shower, while twilight wrapped the blanket over the cold and wet mare making a small heat blocker to lock some of the heat around the mare hoping it will help. She keeps it there with her magic walking away looking on the shelf for a book on how to treat these types of problems that Trixie has.

"No, No, NO, NO!" Twilight said over and over flinging books all over the place off the shelves in her panic trying to find the right book on whats happening at the moment of time. a few mins later twilight heard the sound of the pouring water from the bathroom stop walking back over to Trixie and placed a hoof on her feeling Trixie's breathing was slowly returning back to normal.

"Spike baths done" Spike walked out before noticing a massive pile of different books of the shelf on the ground.

"Don't tell me I have to clean that up" Spike said in a slightly exhausted voice,

"not now, but after...yes. right now I need you to find a book about coldness and how to cure...i'm not sure what but find things about hypothermia and things relating to that" Twilight said levitating the mare on her back walking towards the bathroom feeling very faint breathing against her neck while she walked. Upon reaching the bath she levitated the mare of her back slowly placing her in the hot tub to return some of the body heat. "I better stay and make sure she doesn't drown herself by sinking in the bath..." twilight teleported a small wooden chair while spike walked into the room a few seconds later holding about 5-6 books.

"Twilight I got a few books for you" Spike called before stepping on a wet spot tripping over hitting the ground, while the oblivious twilight levitated the books before hearing spike groan from the fall looking over.

"Are you alright spike?" Twilight said in a somewhat worried voice.

"I'm fine" Spike was instantly cut of after speaking by twilight.

"Good!" Twilight cut spike of levitating book by book quickly scanning the contents of it.

"Shouldn't we take her the the Ponyville hospital?" Spike said before he walked out of the room keeping the door open for a reply from twilight.

"Ponyville's hospital is closed today due to the storm and they have enough trouble as it is already with all the sick ponys" Twilight yelled out to spike who heard a knock at the door walking and opening it before feeling cold rush inside.

"yes?" Spike looked at who it was seeing applejack at the door.

"Oh hi Appleack how can I help you?" Spike said in a somewhat cheerful voice.

"Ah', hello there spike. is twi around?" Applejack said sticking her head in for a quick look.

"She's in the bathroom with Trixie, why you ask?" Spike replied in hes normal voice now somewhat feeling the heat in the room disappearing the longer he kept the door open.

"wait ya mean to tell me that braggarts back?" Applejack said walking inside while spike closed the door behind her.

"First of all...what are you doing here?" Spike asked Applejack who replied straight after.

"Ya see, a quite large tree collapsed on mah' house." Applejack replied.

"well shes in the bathroom. i'll go get her for you" Spike said walking into the bathroom.

"wait a min did ya say Trixie's here a while ago Spike?" Applejack questioned Spike.

"What can I do for you Applejack?" Twilight walked out closing the door while Spike watched after Trixie.

"Ah, well Twi..you could explain why that not for good show mare is doing back in ponyville..." Applejack said back somewhat confused why Trixie was back in Ponyville after all that followed what happened.

"Well..I'm not sure myself I haven't asked her yet cause shes not awake at the moment" Twilight said hoping spike would be nice to Trixie after all that happened.

"what you mean shes not awake an' yet shes in the bath isn't she?" Applejack said still somewhat confused.

"Look...its a long story apparently and I don't know, so now what can I help you with" Twilight stopped the other conversation to bring up something else, knowing Trixie has a bad reputation around ponyville.

"Well ya see, this big tree fell onto and though the barn room and is in need of repair and we need you to move the tree would you?" Applejack asked Twilight Politely.

"Can't this wait till after the storm..and maybe after Trixie wakes up?, because that's my main focus right now. who knows how long shes been out in that storm." Twilight said worryingly looking back into the direction of the bathroom.

"Ah guess it can wait. look I can't go back to the farm till the wind calms down it was hard getting here as it were" Applejack replied hoping she had a spare room to borrow.

"I guess since I should keep close eye on Trixie she'll stay in my bed" Twilight said before walking back into the bathroom to check up on spike and Trixie.

"Spike please go and help Applejack around and so on" Twilight bossed spike who just responded with a groan of annoyance walking out.

"Time to dry you up" Twilight said while levitated Trixie out of the bath and stretched her out levitating a rather big towel over to the mare slowly drying her off while noticing she was breathing normal but still sleeping, as Twilight smiled and let out a sigh of relief that the mare was still alive and kicking almost, though she still wonders what she will think after everything that's happened. She places the azure mare into the bed, as Applejack walked in.

"Hey twi, the where will I Sleep?" AJ said with a odd look.

"you can sleep on the couch or with Trixie" Twilight replied before Applejack decided walking out of the room not really liking Trixie and what she would be like when she wakes up, knowing shes well safe from what ever will happen.
