Trixie meets Puppeteer
It was a cold night at Ponyville as the Unicorn known as Trixie or as she calls herself 'The Great and Powerful Trixie' was trying to sleep, but though she couldn't because she had the feeling that she was being watched. She looked out her window for what might have been the seventh time in a row only to find the buildings of the town and the empty streets. "It must have been nothing," the light blue Unicorn said to herself as she quickly went back to bed. But yet she was still getting the feeling that somepony was watching her.

The next morning, Princess Celestia’s sun started to shine down on Trixie’s trailer and she felt like she was sleeping on the top of a rock in the middle of the Everfree Forest and not a flat rock. She soon opened her eyes as she got up from her bed and looked at the mirror; she looked like she was just hit by a runaway cart. “Ugh, Trixie better clean herself up,” she said in her third-person manner of speech as she levitated her hair brush with her magic up to her mane and started fixing it.
When she was done, she then was ready for her performance she was going to do for many of the citizens of Ponyville. She was even going to try and make this performance better than the last one during the last time she was in this town. As she was almost done getting dressed, Trixie looked into her mirror and saw a large figure that was wearing different hues of grey with yellow eyes and a mouth. She turned around to face the figure but when she turned around the figure she saw in the mirror was just gone in an instant. “Okay, that was strange,” Trixie said with a confused look on her face.
But she quickly ignored it and went outside to start the show. “Fillies and Gentlecolts, prepare to be amazed by the Great and Powerful Trixie!” the light blue Unicorn said to the ponies that have come to watch her as she used her magic to appear before their eyes, “Now, prepare yourselves as the Great and Powerful Trixie shall perform a magic trick that shall leave you in awe.” As she said that and summoned some small fireworks with her magic, she looked out to the crowd now in shock seeing the very same figure from before starring at her with a wicked smile. She was in instant terror and just enough to pass out on stage.
Everypony gathered around the light blue Unicorn hoping that she would wake up. Luckily enough, Twilight Sparkle was there with her assistant Spike and they took the unconscious Unicorn to her library until she could wake up. As she was taking the Unicorn to her library, the figure that was watching from afar watched the lavender Unicorn take the light blue one away from the stage. He soon went into the shadows and followed the two ponies and the little dragon to the library.
“I hope she’s alright,” Trixie heard somepony say.
“I’m sure she’s is going to be alright Spike,” another voice said to the other and this time this voice was a familiar one as the light blue Unicorn began to regain consciousness, “She’s starting to come back.”
Trixie opened her eyes to see Twilight Sparkle and her assistant Spike looking down at her. “W-what happened to me?” she asked as she put a hoof on her head because she felt a pain in her head, “Where is Trixie?”
“Well first off you passed out on stage during your performance and lastly you are in my room and on my bed,” Twilight replied to her, “What exactly happened to you while you were on stage is beyond me, so what happened to you before you passed out?”
Trixie’s pain started to die down as she felt a shiver go down her spine thinking about what she saw, but she wanted to explain to the lavender Unicorn anyways thinking that she might know what that figure was. “T-Trixie saw something in the distance that frightened her to her soul,” she explained to her.
“What did this thing look like?” Twilight asked curiously as Spike brought a canvas, a pencil and large sketch pad to draw the description of the figure.
“It had eyes and a mouth that were yellow; it walked on two legs,” the light blue Unicorn replied giving them every single detail she could remember, “It’s… It’s skin and clothes were grey; the hair was black and there were some yellow, glowing strings coming from it’s fingers.”
“Was the hair of this figure long or short?” the lavender mare asked her.
“It was long, but yet it wasn’t very long,” Trixie replied to her as she saw Spike drawing of what the figure looked like and she just jumped out of the bed in fear because the little Dragon was spot on, it looked identical to what she saw, “Yes, that what the figure looks like!”
“I was actually told of who this figure is by someone like him,” Twilight said in surprise looking at the sketch, “This creature goes by the name of the Puppeteer.”
“W-what does he want with Trixie?” the light blue Unicorn asked in just utter terror.
“I don’t know Trixie,” she replied still staring at the sketch, “All i know about creatures like him is that they take pleasure in killing.” This didn’t really help with Trixie’s fear at all.
“but I’m sure he was just watching you perform the tricks you had in your magic show,” Twilight tried reassuring the light blue mare, “But I am not sure of that though because I haven’t met him before.”
“You mean that T-Trixie has to find this Puppeteer and talk to him so that she can get the answers she is looking for?!” Trixie quivered.
“I’m afraid so,” Twilight nodded. she told the light blue Unicorn that she should go out at night to find the Puppeteer and talk to him. Trixie was just frightened out of her mind at this thought of facing this creature known as the Puppeteer.
Late that night…
Trixie walked through the cold and dark streets of Ponyville looking for the Puppeteer. She looked around her trying to find those yellow eyes and mouth. “H-hello, um… Puppeteer are you here?” she called out to him, “If you are here, can you please show yourself to Trixie?”
“Why would I do that?” the Puppeteer asked her in a ghostly voice as he is hiding in the shadows.
“Trixie just wants to talk to you maybe we can also be friends,” Trixie said to her.
“Hm… Why not?” the Puppeteer said as the light blue Unicorn suddenly felt a hand on her left shoulder. She began to slowly turn her head around and saw that she was face to face with the Puppeteer.
Trixie was shaking from her head down to her hooves. “T-Trixie would like to ask some questions if you are fine with it,” she said to him trying to gain some courage.
“I’m all ears then,” Puppeteer said to her.
“First off, Trixie would like to know what you are and what do you want with her?” she asked him.
“Well, one: you look like you can use a friend and the other: I am called by many names to the humans such as Murderer or Monster, but more commonly called a Creepypasta,” he replied to her first two questions.
“Next, why is it that you Creepypastas love kill so much?” the light blue Unicorn asked again.
“It’s not that we love killing others, it because we are destined to kill others,” the grey creature replied to the next question.
“Are all Creepypastas and Humans native to Equestria?” Trixie asked him once again.
“Well in another Equestria there Creepypasta Ponies, but no,” Puppeteer replied again.
“Oh, Trixie now understands now,” she said to the Creepypasta, “Maybe you would like to be part of Trixie’s performance tomorrow.”
Puppeteer thought for a moment seeing if he should accept the light blue mare’s offer. “Ah, what the hell,” he admitted to her, “Sure, I’ll be part of your performance and I’ll also bring my puppets as well.”
"Alright, Trixie will see you tomorrow at eleven," Trixie nodded as she walked back to her trailer.
The next morning...
Trixie was in her trailer getting ready for performance with the Puppeteer. She was also wondering what kind of puppets the Creepypasta is bringing for the show today. She then heard a knock at her door and instantly used her magic to open the door revealing the Puppeteer with some puppets on his right shoulder. "Hello there Trixie," he greeted the light blue Unicorn, "I have brought some of my puppets as I said I would."
"That is great Puppeteer," Trixie smiled turning to look at him, "Then let us begin the show."
Everypony was waiting outside waiting for the show to begin. "Mares and Gentlecolts, today the Great and Powerful Trixie shall amaze you all," Trixie said to them appearing before the audience, "With the help of her new assistant."
As she said that a pony puppet wearing clothing appeared out of the stage curtains and to the audience it looked like it was moving literally on it's own with out the help of Trixie's magic. But it was actually Puppeteer using his yellow glowing strings to make the pony puppet move while Trixie used her magic to make the strings invisible. "Now for this performance, the Great and Powerful Trixie shall make this puppet known as Flower Light vanish in this one box," the light blue Unicorn continued as she pointed at a box on her left, "As she reappears in this box," then pointing to a second box on her right.
"Now Miss Flower, this way to the box," she to the puppet and the Puppeteer made the pony puppet walk into the box. As the pony puppet was inside, Puppeteer released his strings from the puppet and Trixie then closed the box as she said to the crowd, "Now, Trixie shall make Miss Flower disappear from this box and she then will reappear in the other box." Her hat-covered horn started to glow as she used a spell to teleport the puppet to the other box. She then used her magic to open the boxes revealing that the pony puppet was no longer in the first box, but was now in the other. Puppeteer then quickly reconnected his strings to the puppet and made it walk out of the box.
"And voila, she has reappeared into the second box," Trixie said to the crowd as they cheered for them. The pony puppet soon walked on the other side of the curtains. The light blue Unicorn looked up at her assistant as he gave her a thumbs up. She nodded and they continued on with the show.
