It's About Trixie, This Time

A powerful surge of magic woke Trixie up from pleasant dreams of fame, fortune and a certain purple unicorn in a maid's dress.

She opened her eyes and saw a sphere of bright, silvery-blue light hanging in mid-air. It filled her cramped garret with showers of sparks and a wind that made Trixie's mane flutter. She had just enough time to say "What the hay?" before it exploded.

When her eyes cleared, Trixie saw... herself, only wearing silver-rimmed spectacles, a slightly singed rune-embroidered cloak of midnight blue, and the most magnificient wizard's hat she'd ever seen, encrusted with jeweled stars, moons and suns and topped by a long silver tassel, currently on fire.

"Trixie!" she heard herself say in her best showmare's tone. "I am you from the Future!"

"That's impossible!" Trixie blurted. "Nopony can-"

"Do not doubt the Great and Powerful Trixie!" she snapped, then looked sheepish. "I learned the spell from Twilight Sparkle. But that's not important! What's important is that you must go back to Ponyville, make up with Twilight, and become her apprentice and marefriend! And don't give me that look, I remember the scrapbook I kept. And the poems."

Trixie blanched. "You really... Trixie will... but won't she... can we?"

"Yes, yes, nay, and oh yesss," the older Trixie said, grinning broadly. "Now, the fate of Equestria is in question, so listen closely! The riddling zebra is a villain, trust Zecora about him. Discord knows how to open the vault, so you have to convince him to help. Don't let Luna try the Sovereign Rune alone! And most importantly, the Cutie Mark Crusaders mustn't-"

There was another flash of magic, and Trixie was gone, leaving Trixie blinking in the sudden darkness. Suddenly, she smiled. Her life was about to get interesting!

Author's Note:

Trixie, time travel, Trixie, and a dash of Twixie. Obviously inspired by "It's About Time" with a bit of "No Time To Explain".

Trixie is so much better at time traveling than Twilight. At least, she's better at shutting herself up. That's a good skill if any. And dressing snazzy for the occasion.

Also, her first order of business is to get her past-self hooked up properly. Good priorities, girl. Very good.
