When I was just walking around the Ponyville just like every other day, I saw a group of ponies gathering up. I later noticed that they are all watching the poster. I was curious what the poster said. When I later got the chance and got a better view, I was a little surprised. It was a little too hard for me to understand what it said. In my opinion it said something like
"The Great and Powerful Trixie is coming for a spot here at Ponyville tonight! Come and see me and if you want to dare for a duel, come on tonight."
The last sentence was a little too hard for me to understand what it really was trying to say.
"A duel?" I asked myself "Why would she ask anybody for a duel? Is she just showing a duel or asking any pony if they are up for a duel?"
I still have no idea what the poster was trying to say, so I decided to ask Twilight so that I can be sure to understand what it is trying to say. After I arrived at the castle and explain everything to her, she told me who that Unicorn is.
"That's Trixie" she said.
Twilight told me the whole story about how she met her and also about her more. Later, Starlight Glimer came by and also explained to me all about Trixie. Starlight told me that she and Trixie are friends. I asked her if she knows that Trixie is coming for tonight. Starlight said that Trixie is coming but she did not know that it was tonight. I asked her if she would be going to see Trixie for tonight. She said that she will and also told me that she is helping Trixie, just like last time. I left Twilight's castle later, after I listened to her story.
My friends came by my house later and told me that I should probably participate in this event. I told them that I am still new to this magic and do not know if I should even participate in this event.
"You saved Twilight and Spike's life out in the Everfree forest" said Rarity.
"That's true" I said.
"You even made some kind of the perfect dodge" said Rainbow Dash.
"Yeah" I said.
"You helped me at my apple fields" said Applejack.
"That was just helping" I said. "Even if that is true, that is not all about magic."
"You can understand animal languages and even helped my pet Angel" said Fluttershy.
"That's true" I said.
"You enjoy parties a lot and even dance pretty well" said Pinkie Pie.
"That's just about parties Pinkie, not about magic" I said.
My friends still encourages me that I should go, even when I do not end up participating in the event. I thought to myself and also said to myself if I should really go. What if I humiliate myself, if my magic does not end up working? However, because I was also curious, I thought maybe it is a good time for me to at least go to the event.
"OK I will go" I said.
All of my friends shouted with joy.
"But don't think I am going to participate in the event" I said "unless if I changed my mind."
"Sure thing" my friends said.
Soon, the evening came. I saw a lot of ponies there to see the event of Trixie. I also saw my friends who are right in the front of the stage.
"Hey Hoobe" said Pinkie. "over here!"
"Thanks guys!" I said. "But we don't have to take this spot"
"We wanted to save for the best" said Rarity
Soon the event began. Twilight Sparkle was on the stage.
"Fillies and Gentlecolts" announced Twilight "May I present to you, The great and powerful, Trixie!"
As Twilight went to the back of the stage, Trixie showed up in the cloud of fog or a smoke that kind of looked like a dust but not dirty. Everyone was amazed and so did I. I thought I remember seeing magic performances, but the performances that I just saw seemed too great to notice. I also saw Starlight besides her during the middle of Trixie's performance. I could see that she was helping Trixie with her performance. Just as Twilight told me, I could see that they are friends in a relation. Not as in they are in love with each other, but as in the fact that they are just friends. Their performance together were even more stunning.
"For my last performance" said Trixie "I will need a volunteer for a magic duel. This is not going to be too much of a duel, but you might win the price if you defeat me. Do not worry if you get defeated by me. I am only looking for a volunteer"
I did not wanted to volunteer, not because I had a stage fright, but it was because I was worried what if my magic does not work or if I steal the show, whether I win or lose. However, before I made my decision, I heard someone shouting.
"Hoobe will do it! He is great as magic and maybe even close to your skill!!"
It was no other than Pinkie Pie!
"Excuse me for just a moment." I said to everyone.
I then rushed to one side of the stadium with Pinkie.
"Pinkie!" I said "What are you doing? You are going to make me humiliated in front of the whole pony! I am not that good with magic like Trixie"
"Oh, come on Hoobe" said Pinkie "You don't have to win. That will not make you humiliated. You are just showing what you can do. With that skills, that will be enough to show everyone what you are capable of and it is not too bad."
"Yeah Hoobe" said Spike who was also with Pinkie Pie and my friends. "Your magic may not be big as Trixie, but it will be good enough to show to every pony how great yours is, just like Trixie, even when that is not greater or not"
I was not so sure if I would do it or not, but because chances like this does not come too often I said to myself.
"Why not?"
"OK then" I said to Pinkie and Spike. "I will do it but it is not because I just wanted to."
I went back in front of the stage and said to Trixie.
"I will do it"
I was given the direction to where I need to go and what I needed to do. The duel began.
First off was Trixie, with a simple magic.
"Can you do that?" she asked me.
"Well that is if I can do this" I said.
I did the magic of what I could remember doing.
"Very good" said Trixie "But it will be tougher this time"
She then showed me the magic that was in a bigger limit than the previous one. I was able to perform the magic that Trixie showed to me and the audience. This time, Trixie was quite surprised.
"Well then, this would be my Grand Finale." said Trixie. "If you can also perform this one, you are the winner"
She showed me and the audience what it was. I knew that Trixie would have no problem handling with any kind of magic. So it would not be a surprise to me. However, when I later noticed what magic that Trixie was going to show me, I knew that she would not survive. I quickly whispered to Starlight about it she was shocked. She knew that Trixie was going to perform but did not know that was one of them. Quickly she tried to warn Trixie and must stop, but it was too late by the time she tried to stop Trixie. Starlight tried to save Trixie with the magic, but it was not enough. Trixie was stuck. Seeing this really made me hesitate and I did not know what to do. I decided to try out to see if I could help Trixie. Thankfully, she survived. Before I thought it was my turn for me to perform the magic, Trixie made an announcement.
"And the winner is!" announed Trixie "Hoobe!"
Everypony cheered with an applause. I was confused. I did not even performed so I asked myself why was I winner.
After the show, Trixie explained to me why she awarded me as a winner.
"I got caught up while I was performing" explained Trixie "but you saved my life and no pony would ever be able to perform that magic, even Starlight. I later realized that it was a big mistake I made but I did not even know. Thanks for saving me"
I could have been more clear to what she was saying. However, as I was talking with my friends, I knew that maybe it was not a bad idea for me to perform on stage, whether it is magic or something else. As I sleep for the night. I had a dream of myself when I was performing magic that was not just a simple magic but rather a magic that I was able to perform maybe even the biggest magic that any pony will have ever seen, even for Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.
