Despite the challenges of being student counselor, Trixie has grown to enjoy her time working at the School of Friendship. However, all of that may be at risk when news of Princess Twilight Sparkle's sudden passing arrives at her doorstep in the form of the daily newspaper. With the students and staff too busy for the morning news, she must make a difficult decision that could put the entire school at risk, and maybe even Equestria. The question now, is she ready to tell Starlight what happened? And is Starlight ready to handle it?

Disclaimer: No, i did not, and will not, explain how Twilight died. That will remain up to the reader.

Yet another story written for one of The Nameless One's writing challenge. Since the theme for this one was much broader and I had a lot more time than last time (Shopping Pressure), I took the chance to make it a sneak peek into my bigger story: Divided We Fall (previously Friendship is Sadness). It happens within the same universe and is made to show how the story will be like, so I hope you enjoy it! Also, Trixie was surprisingly difficult to write.

A few days ago, I got into a writing challenge with someone from an mlp discord server (which i will not name). The challenge was just for fun, and it was only us two. The rules were you had to write a 1.6K word story on a random character and theme that was given to you, and we had 2 days to write it. I got "Fluttershy" and "Shopping", and this is what I came up with, enjoy!

ps: keep in mind, I only had 48 hours to come up with and write the story, so of course it's not my best one, be reasonable in the comments.
(Also, ignore the fact that the raccoons are from Manehattan, just go along with it.)

While looking for answers about the past, the mane five discover the old changeling hive, and with it they find the only changeling left, who proceeds to tell them his story.
