A new trio of girls take the school by storm, inciting a music battle by tapping into the students darker desires. The magic, however, incites something different in Trixie and Maud; revenge and obsession.
Spending your days smashing rocks and wallowing in anger can do things to a pony, even a pony as resilient as Trixie Lulamoon. There is one pony though, one pony who can shed some light into Trixie's dismantled life.
Trixie and Maud have been in a relationship for awhile now, and with Trixie's recent advances put down by the stoic mare, Trixie is beginning to worry that there's something she doesn't know. Little does she know just how right she is.
Trixie Lulamoon has led a hard life, especially after the events of her magic duel with Twilight Sparkle. Now trying to piece herself back together, can she learn the meaning of friendship from her first real friend, Maud Pie?
All Trixie wants is a smile from the emotionless mare. Yet, no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't seem to get even a smudge of emotion from her. Looks like Trixie's down to her last straw.
