  1. >You are the Great and Powerful Trixie
  2. >And you have just woken up with a great and powerful hangover
  3. >Oh Celestia your head is killing you
  4. >You try to recall the events of last night
  5. >You remember your show going off without a hitch
  6. >You were in Las Pegasus
  7. >You were performing a new trick for the p0nies to see
  8. >You turned your assistant Anonymous in to water
  9. >Then with help from your magic you basically made Anon evaporate, become a cloud, then you had him rain down on to the stage in a controlled pattern
  10. >At the end he became a living, humanoid being made of pure water
  11. >Then you brought down the water's temperature turning him in to a human made of ice
  12. >After that the two of you continued your performance as normal
  13. >When you returned Anon back in to his natural state the stomping of p0nies hooves echoed throughout the city
  14. >You were a hit!
  15. >Anon was 'meh' at best.
  16. >So what if he came up with that trick that was all you.
  17. >He should be grateful that you found him worthy enough to have your magic manipulate his body in to any state!
  18. >You groan as you rub your temples with your hooves
  19. >Trixie: Oh....oh...Trixie's head is killing her...
  20. >Then you start to recall the events that happened after your show
  21. >Anon brought you back to your wagon to celebrate
  22. >There were a few adoring fans waiting
  23. >All of you shared in his Applejack Daniels that he bought with YOUR BITS!
  24. >Even though you pay him those bits for doing his job as your assistant.
  25. >And the Applejack Daniels was a nice touch...
  26. >It didn't take long for your group to get too drunk too quick
  27. >Then things get a little hazy from there...
  28. >At least you made it to your bed.
  29.  
  30. >A:Stay in bed and try to sleep off your hangover
  31. >B:Get up now and get started
  32. >C:Call for Anon
  33. >D:Use magic to attempt to cure your hangover

  36.  
  37. >You call out
  38. >Trixie: Anonymous!
  39. >No response
  40. >You growl, you know he heard you
  41. >Trixie: ANONYMOUS!
  42. >You wait for a response
  43. >You hear Anon call from his blanket and pillow set up in your kitchen
  44. Anon: WHAT?
  45. >Trixie: Come here, Trixie needs you for a moment
  46. >You hear him sigh from the other room
  47. >You hear the wooden floor of your wagon creek as he stands and walks to your room
  48. >Such a pain this human...you've had to upgrade your wagon in order to better suit his needs
  49. >And by that you mean you've racked in so many bits you had enough to upgrade.
  50. >Anonymous' comfort is of no concern to you, hence his sleeping arrangements
  51. >He stands before your queen sized bed
  52. Anon: What is it?
  53.  
  54. >A:Ask him for a remedy for your hangover
  55. >B:Make him get you something for your hangover
  56. >C:Tell him you don't need him for anything
  57. >D:Make him make breakfast or lunch depending on the time of day
  58.  
  59. (A was chosen)
  60.  
  61. >Trixie: Get Trixie a cure for her hangover.
  62. >You see Anon narrow his eyes
  63. Anon: Come again?
  64. >Trixie: Trixie's hangover. Cure it. Now.
  65. Anon: So I guess you don't recall anything from last night?
  66. >Trixie: Trixie remembers perfectly!
  67. Anon: Oh? Good, I'm sure you remember how I got this then huh?
  68. >Anonymous points to his left bicep
  69. >Wait, you rub your eyes
  70. >First of all, Anonymous is shirtless
  71. >Second of all, his bicep is wrapped up
  72. >You see blood stains on his wrappings
  73. Anon: Since you remember what happened then you know why I'm not doing a damn thing for you today.
  74. >He does a 180 and proceeds to walk out of your room
  75.  
  76. >A:Tell Anonymous to wait; ask him what happened last night
  77. >B:Let him walk out of the room
  78. >C:Tell Anonymous to wait; tell him he'll be out of a job if he doesn't help you
  79.  
  80. (A was chosen)
  81.  
  82.  
  83. >Trixie: Wait.
  84. >Anon stops in his tracks and turns around to face you
  85. >He's gotten good at listening to you
  86. >What with his fate in your hooves in all
  87. >Trixie: What...what did Trixie do last night?
  88. Anon: May I take a seat?
  89. >He point to your bed with his right hand
  90. >Trixie: If you must.
  91. >Anonymous takes a seat on your bed
  92. >That ingrate he could at least thank you for being able to sit on your bed
  93. >There are stallions out there that would kill to sit on your bed!
  94. Anon: Trixie, I'm not hanging out with you when you're on the Daniels again
  95. >Trixie: Why not?
  96. Anon: Because you're acting weird while you're drunk.
  97. >Trixie: What do you mean, Trixie demands an explanation!
  98. Anon: Trixie you did this to me.
  99. >You furrow your brow, your hangover becomes the least of your problems
  100. >Trixie: Move your arm.
  101. Anon: I can't.
  102. >You sneer
  103.  
  104. >Trixie: What could Trixie have possibly done to cause this?
  105. >You point to the bandages
  106. >He in turn point to your horn
  107. >You know what he's referring to now
  108. >Trixie: Trixie did no such thing, you lie!
  109. >Anonymous shakes his head
  110. Anon: Maybe if I tell you, you'll remember.
  111. >Trixie: Trixie is all ears.
  112. Anon: Remember that little group we had with us?
  113. >You nod
  114. Anon: Remember that tan mare we had? The one with the silver irises?
  115. >You vaguely remember a little hussy by that description
  116. >You nod again
  117. Anon: Well, while you were partying with those stallions she and I were talkin. We were going to YOUR guest room.
  118. >Yeah that's right, your assistant isn't allowed to take the guest bed. That's for GUESTS.
  119. Anon: When you saw me and her going in you pitched a fit.
  120. Anon: You teleported in front of us and told me that the 'whorse' needed to leave. I told you to calm down and your response was to spit in that mare's face.
  121. >Your eyes widen in surprise
  122. Anon: Yeah you're really ladylike when you're drunk. Best manners I've ever seen.
  123. >You stay quiet and let him continue despite wanting to say something about his sarcasm.
  124. Anon: Anyway, she trotted out of the wagon. I asked you what your problem was and you told me to go *ahem* 'buck myself.'
  125. >You stifle a giggle at that one
  126. Anon: Yeah it's hilarious. After that you said that it's in the contract. Your assistants aren't allowed to have sexual relations with the fans.
  127. >Yes you remember writing up that rule, after all, if you were to let Anon have his way it'd look bad on you. What kind of company does that say you keep?
  128. Anon: After that you sat with the stallions that decided to stay. After another half a bottle you started letting them touch you wherever you wanted. I got to watch that part.
  129. >He looks disgusted, you can't imagine why
  130. Anon: While they were doing that you were telling them to stop and that you didn't like it. They didn't stop. So I got my happy ass up and kicked their asses. When I did that you got pissed.
  131. Anon: When I tossed them out on their flanks I turned around to find you staring at me like you were going to kill me. I closed the door and you started walking towards me.
  132. >You lean in, this is starting to get interesting.
  133. Anon: You chucked the bottle at me calling me a 'cock block' I ducked under the bottle. I took my eyes off of you for a second to watch the bottle shatter. Before turning around I asked 'What the fuck you hypocrite?'
  134. >You glare at Anon, how dare he insult you like that!
  135. >Anon scoffs
  136. Anon: Yeah you gave me that same look when I turned around. Your horn started glowing after that. This time I tried to move but hey I'm not faster than magic. You aimed for my chest and I tried to move anyway. Luckily you only managed to clip my arm.
  137. >He points to his wrapped wound.
  138. Anon: You got pissed off because I insulted you and you said that I got what I deserved
  139. >You suppress a smile, giving rude p0- people their comeuppance always put a smile on your face.
  140. Anon: So I walked over to our medicine cabinet and got some bandages while you drank some more.
  141. Anon: The entire time you started asking why you kept me around. Saying things like you'd be well off without a freak living in your wagon.
  142. >Trixie: And then what happened?
  143. >You sound a little too excited
  144. >Anon's frown deepens
  145. Anon: So I listened to your snide remarks while I disinfected my wound and patched myself up. Honestly I wanted to leave.
  146. >Trixie: Why didn't you? Let me guess, because if you did you'd have no way to get bits and you'd end up a bum again?
  147. Anon: That and, you were staring at me. When I asked what you were looking at you burst in to tears and galloped over to me.
  148. >Trixie: Come again?
  149. Anon: You heard me. When you got to me you wrapped your hooves around me and started crying in to my shirt. You kept saying you were sorry over and over again...I should have stayed mad but seeing you like that I couldn't. So I ended up holding you for a little while.
  150. >Now it's your turn to look disgusted.
  151. >Trixie: Trixie would have done no such thing!
  152. Anon: Mind letting me continue?
  153. >Trixie: Trixie will allow this.
  154. Anon: Thank you. So after holding you for a little while I noticed you were heaving...you threw up on my shirt.
  155. >You shake your head in disgust
  156. >Trixie: Bleh! Oh wow...
  157. Anon: Oh wow indeed. After that you were so damn weak you could hardly move. So I had to help you get to the bathroom, brush your teeth, rinse your mouth out, wash the vomit off of you, and then tuck you in to bed.
  158. >You quirk a brow at this and look him over, wondering if he's telling you the truth or not.
  159. >Trixie: You lie.
  160. >Anonymous laughs heartily
  161. Anon: If my cut isn't enough how about the blueberry scented soap I had to use on you?
  162. >You lift a hoof and smell it
  163. >Blueberry invades your senses
  164. >Trixie: Trixie could have bathed while drunk! Trixie is quite the talented mare after all.
  165. >You refused to believe you sobbed in to Anon's shirt like a little filly and you definitely wouldn't believe his vomit portion either.
  166. Anon: Whatever you say Trixie. Anyway I'm hungry, I'm gonna make some breakfast.
  167. >He gets up and starts to leave
  168. >How dare he be so rude to you like that!
  169. >He didn't even offer to make you anything
  170.  
  171. >A:Thank him on his way out
  172. >B:Tell him he should have used different soap
  173. >C:Tell him to make you breakfast
  174. >D:Call him rude for not offering to cook you anything
  175.  
  176. (A was chosen)
  177.  
  178.  
  179. >But still, the evidence is astounding...
  180. >He cleaned the vomit from your fur and brushed your teeth
  181. >Probably not your most dignified moment but at least he was there to help
  182. >Trixie: Trixie....
  183. >Anonymous slams the door
  184. >Trixie: ...thanks you.
  185. >And he just door slammed his way out of a thank you.
  186. >Buck him if he's going to be like that!
  187. >When you get out of bed your headache returns full force
  188. >That doesn't help your anger out at all
  189. >You growl before trotting over to the door and opening it
  190. >You yell out
  191. >Trixie: And you better make Trixie something to eat too! And do not forget Trixie's remedy!
  192. >You slam your door before trotting back over to your bed
  193. >Anonymous didn't answer but he'd do it if he knew what was good for him
  194.  
  195. >A:Get back in bed and wait for food and stuff
  196. >B:Go take a shower
  197. >C:Go in to the kitchen and sit at the table

  204. >Wait...you sniff again
  205. >This is Anon's shampoo...he washed you in his blueberry body wash.
  206. >Trixie: Eeeeewwwww! Ew ew ew ew ewwwwww!
  207. >You gallop out of your room and in to the adjacent bathroom.
  208. >You pass by your sink, your toilet, your personal hot tub, until finally reaching your shower.
  209. >Trixie: Trixie must wash off the peasant smell!
  210. >You hear Anon call from within the kitchen
  211. Anon: heard that.
  212. >Trixie: Buck you get Trixie's breakfast ready!
  213. >You hear Anon grumble something but the words are garbled by the walls of your wagon
  214. >Whatever it's not like what he says matters
  215. >You turn on the knobs, get the water at the right temperature, wait for the tub to fill, then you get in and get started on bathing yourself.
  216. >Using your magic you levitate your loofah over to you so you can scrub away the blueberry smell from your coat
  217. >Now what should you use...
  218. >You spot Anon's blueberry bodywash, your raspberry scented soaps and shampoo, and then you spot your banana and peach scented soaps.
  219.  
  220. >A:Blueberry
  221. >B:Raspberry
  222. >C:Banana

  225. (B was chosen)
  226.  
  227. >You think on it for a moment
  228. >Maybe...maybe Anon won't notice...
  229. >You squeeze out his blueberry shampoo on to your coat and lather it in
  230. >Then you work on that gorgeous mane and tail of yours
  231. >The smell is intoxicating...why does stallion shampoo smell better than mare shampoo?!
  232. >Just go with it Trixie
  233. >You end up putting more of Anon's body wash in to your coat
  234. >You end up using a lot more than you intended, but yeah Anon's stupid he won't notice.
  235. >You hope.
  236. >After lathering and rinsing off a few times you feel that you've been adequately cleaned
  237. >You step out of your draining tub to realize you've forgotten your towel
  238. >You look in your sink's mirror to find that...
  239. >Wow this wet mane look is sexy...
  240. >You give your reflection bedroom eyes and wink
  241. >Oh yeah you'd rut that mare alright.
  242. >You step out of your bathroom still wet, then you trot in to the kitchen
  243. >You find Anon's back is to you, he's currently making eggs and toast
  244. >Good, that human knows you like your eggs
  245. >BETTER MAKE THEM SUNNY SIDE UP!

  257. >You smirk before crouching down
  258. >Your target: Him.
  259. >Using your magic you propel yourself across the kitchen
  260. >You wrap your hooves around his body and cling to him
  261. >Trixie: Greetings from your favorite mare: The Great and Powerful-
  262. >Anon's body tenses up and he yells in pain
  263. >That's when you realize your left front hoof is wrapped around his left bicep
  264. >You slide off of him and that only makes him yell louder
  265. >He drops to one knee and gingerly holds his wounded bicep
  266. >Without the pressure being applied his yelling stops
  267. >You can see tears pooling around his eyes
  268. Anon: That.fucking.hurt!
  269. >He glares at you

  278. >You made a slight mistake
  279. >You forgot how much of a filly Anon is
  280. >So what if you're the cause of his pain
  281. >He deserves it for keeping you from getting any last night!
  282. >So what if you apparently didn't want it
  283. >Anonymous is probably lying about it because he jealous
  284. >You know he'd love to get a piece of you
  285. >Your charm is unmatched, second to none
  286. >But...maybe you should apologize...after all he is cooking you breakfast
  287. >And his breakfasts are always delicious
  288. >Trixie: Trixie is...
  289. >Anonymous' glare lets up somewhat
  290. >Trxie: Trixie is....sorry for hurting you.
  291. >Anonymous seems shocked
  292. Anon: W...what?
  293. >Trixie: She's also sorry that you're a little filly who can't handle a little sore!
  294. >What kind of apology was that?!
  295.  
  296. Anon: And there goes my patience.
  297. >Anon gets to his feet again
  298. >He looks over the eggs in his pan
  299. Anon: Done.
  300. >He moves his pan off of the stove top and over to a plate prepared on the kitchen table.
  301. >After sliding the two sunny side up eggs on to the plate he tosses the pan in to the sink.
  302. >You watch as he grabs his shirt and coat off of the nearby rack next to the door
  303. >He steps out in to the cold winter air of Las Pegasus
  304. >You shiver when a gust of cold wind blows in to your wagon.
  305. >Before he shuts the door he says
  306. Anon: I can't stand you right now, I'll be back before the shows starts.
  307. >He has a tough time putting on his shirt and coat but he manages
  308. >Without another word he slams the door, leaving you to your breakfast.
  309.  
  310. >A:Eat breakfast
  311. >B:Go after Anon
  312. >C:Go and take a nap you're not all that hungry
  313. >D:Ruin Anon's pillow and blanket for being so rude
  314.  
  315. (A was chosen)
  316.  
  317. >Well that was rude!
  318. >How dare he act that way towards you!
  319. >You're the soul reason why he's got a roof over his head!
  320. >He should be licking your hooves
  321. >Maybe going to Baltimare three months ago was a terrible idea
  322. >After your failed venture in P0nyville you tried to go to a city as far away from that piss poor town as possible
  323. >Baltimare was that city, you had performed there, unfortunately your audience was small and your spells were...less than spectacular.
  324. >You continue to recall the events that have led you to this day as you trot over to the table.
  325. >Using magic you levitate a fork from a nearby drawer over to you
  326. >You pick up some of your egg with said fork and take a bite, when you chew and swallow you sigh
  327. >Delicious as always...
  328. >You've been eating his meals for quite some time now, you've grown accustomed to it.
  329. >Not that you've never had anyone make food for you before, you're The Great and Powerful Trixie!
  330. >And that crowd in Baltimare wouldn't know grandeur if it came it bit them on the flank!
  331. >You would have wowed them with your lightning and your item tricks
  332. >But for some reason nothing seemed to work!
  333. >You started to tire yourself out with your finale multi colored ethereal clouds of sparkling magic
  334. >It was like a light show you'd only see if you were to head for the northern lands!
  335. >All you got was a small smattering of applause!
  336. >That's when the tallest member of your audience hit the stage
  337. >You thought it was some small minotaur
  338. >The torn rags and cloak he was wearing made it a bit hard to tell
  339. >That is until he tossed his cloak to the audience
  340. >A dirty, smelly, hairless ape creature stood before the audience
  341. >You wrapped your magic around him and tossed him off-stage
  342. >You were not in the mood for alien bull shit.
  343. >He used the force exerted from your toss to do some weird trick
  344. >When he landed on his feet and posed in the audience they 'ooohed and aaahed'
  345. >You tried to play it off and head on to your next trick.
  346. >But the monkey alien jumped back on to your stage again!
  347. >He held a finger to you and told you to wait
  348. >Then he runs back stage, you felt humiliated
  349. >He was ruining your show!
  350. >After telling your audience to wait a moment you galloped back stage
  351. >You found him holding one of your torches
  352. >That and he had your lamp fuel container in his other hand
  353. >He held the torch in front of you
  354. >'Trust me I've done this before' he told you
  355. >You answered him by telling him to get the buck off your stage
  356. >His response to that was 'Do you want them to give you a polite clop or do you want them to go bucking crazy?'
  357. >You were pressured in to making a quick decision
  358. >On one hoof this alien was right, your crowd was a bunch of inbeciles
  359. >Perhaps something tribal like Anonymous was suggesting would be more in their area of entertainment.
  360. >Anonymous then ran back out on stage with his now lit torch
  361. >You were face hoofing as you trotted back out on stage
  362. >This was going to end in disaster you just knew it
  363. >But a flaming monkey alien would make for some fine entertainment if he failed.
  364. >'Fillies and Gentlecolts!' Anonymous shouted, 'behold!'
  365. >He opened the lamp oil container, took a swig, and blew at the torch
  366. >A jet of flames snake out in to the air
  367. >Your crowd backs away in surprise
  368. >When the flames dissipate Anonymous takes a quick bow
  369. >Like before they 'oohed and aahed'
  370. >'Now for our next trick, The Great and Powerful Trixie will make my flames come to life!'
  371. >This got them to start chattering among themselves
  372. >A couple p0nies gasped, some leaned in with anticipation
  373. >You however weren't pleased
  374. >'We?! The Great and Powerful Trixie works alone!' you shouted
  375. >Anonymous shook his head before walking over and leaning in
  376. >The smell of an unwashed hobo invaded your senses and you nearly gagged
  377. >'Listen, I know this sounds crazy as all get out but if you don't what else are you going to do? More cloud tricks?'
  378. >You opened your mouth to protest...but then you started thinking...
  379. >Were you really considering doing this?
  380. >After all, with this thing coming out on stage and performing that single trick, more p0nies started to walk over to your stage
  381. >Maybe he's on to something...and hey you'll try anything once
  382. >Well....almost anything...
  383.  
  384. >'What the hay' you said before shrugging
  385. >Anonymous flashed you a smile filled with yellow teeth and smelly breath
  386. >Oh Celestia why did you agree to this?
  387. >Anonymous preps himself yet again
  388. >This time he intakes a lot more lamp oil than before
  389. >When he creates his spectacle again he looks to you and points to the flames shooting in to the air
  390. >Using your magic and what little knowledge you have as far as manipulating the elements go you managed to...
  391. >Turn Anonymous' flames in to a living snake
  392. >You pulled the flames away from the torch, putting the torch out in the process
  393. >This snake of fire slithered through the air and started to descend to the crowd in front of the stage
  394. >It slithered around rows and rows of p0nies who had become so frightened they started backing away from it
  395. >The fire snake hissed and spat sparks at the p0nies causing them to gasp and put quite a good distance in between themselves and the snake.
  396. >Eventually the p0nies formed a grouped circle around the oddity you created
  397. >You made the snake curl in to a circle in the center of their p0ny made circle before shooting off in to the sky like a bottle rocket
  398. >When it reached a good distance you made it combust in to an array of multiple colors.
  399. >When the colors and sparks faded away the crowd turned to look at the two of you
  400. >For once...they cheered, their hooves echoed throughout the adjacent city blocks
  401. >That was nothing to you and yet they loved it?
  402. >Unbelievable
  403. >Your 'assistant' took a bow and you did in turn
  404. >The two of you started playing off each other for the next hour
  405. >He'd throw unlit hoops in to the air and you'd suspend them with your magic
  406. >Then you'd put them at proper level with his height, after that you'd light them
  407. >He could leap through three of the five hoops he tossed with a single bound!
  408. >And he actually knew what he was doing, he'd tuck and roll so he wouldn't hurt himself
  409. >When he brought out the tight rope and when you turned that tight rope in to lightning he kept his balance
  410. >When he started performing acrobatic feats on the levitating bars you put on stage even you were wowed by his stunts
  411. >And these p0nies ate this stuff up!
  412. >More and more started trotting to your stage
  413. >They were throwing bits at you and stuff kept happening!
  414. >But all good things must come to an end
  415. >When the show was over the crowd was disappointed!
  416. >They wanted more, they wanted an encore
  417. >But you were exhausted, you hadn't done that many spells in rapid succession in quite a while
  418. >When you told them to leave they did, but not before grumbling about how disappointed they were at it having to end
  419. >When the last of the p0nies dispersed you looked to your 'assistant' to find that he grabbed ten bits off the stage and made a run for it.
  420. >Before you could say anything he turned down a corner and was out of sight.
  421. >You sighed to yourself before looking over your earned bits
  422. >You collected 120 bits, would have been 130 but that greedy alien had to run off with some!
  423. >You were angry at him for doing what he did but hey hobos have to eat too.
  424. >Besides you haven't seen this many bits since Prance
  425. >And that was for a reason you're too embarrassed to talk about
  426. >Hey you were desperate and that bar in Prance needed a show mare!
  427. >It's not like you took any of the clients to the ViP Room and did things
  428. >You weren't a hussy like those other mares!
  429. >You picked up your bits and turned your stage back in to your wagon
  430. >With your show over for the night it was time for you to move on to another city
  431. >But you were going to celebrate first
  432. >So much Applejack Daniels
  433. >You got absolutely shit faced in a bar that was relatively close to where your wagon was parked
  434. >When you came stumbling out of the bar and back to your wagon you passed by an alleyway
  435. >The shadow of something hunched over caught your attention
  436. >In your state you stumbled in to the alleyway to find Anonymous eating a loaf of bread and drinking a bottle of water
  437. >Unfortunately you're a very impulsive drunk
  438. >You started telling him how he managed to save your show and how he was this strange, amazing, talented alien thing
  439. >You were saying things you would never say while sober...oh Celestia you don't even remember everything you said that night
  440. >From what you could remember he was eating up your compliments like he was with that bread a few moments before
  441. >He told you about Earth and how he was a performer from a city called 'Las Vegas'
  442. >In your drunken state you offered him a spot as your assistant and the rest is history.
  443. >You sigh as you look over your now empty plate
  444. >His eggs always sit well with you
  445. >And your headache is no where near as impairing as it was earlier
  446. >You trot over to the sink and put your plate and fork in there with Anon's pan
  447. >He'll clean that up for you later when he gets back
  448. >Unless he stays gone this time...
  449. >No, there's no reason to think like that
  450. >He always comes back, after all without you he's nothing
  451. >He comes back to you no matter how you treat him
  452. >Besides why would he want to stay away from you? You're amazing, he's just a stupid flank face.
  453. >I mean sure you've come to be a bit more callous towards him lately
  454. >But that's because he lost his mystique, he's no longer an oddity to you
  455. >Now he's nothing more than your assistant
  456. >An assistant who only gets 10% of the bits earned...and doesn't get a bed to sleep in.
  457. >At least he doesn't complain about his sleeping arrangements
  458. >He does complain about YOU though
  459. >Which is silly, you're perfect company and everyp0ny loves you
  460. >Well the p0nies that matter anyway
  461. >The silly thing of it is this isn't the first time he's just walked out
  462. >You're a bit curious as to just where he'd go
  463. >But...it's fairly cold out there, you could just stay inside, chill in your hot tub, and drink some tea.
  464.  
  465. >A:Go out in to the cold Las Pegasus air and search for Anon
  466. >B:Stay and relax in her hot tub and drink tea

  475. >So with your hat, scarf, and cape at the ready you step out of your wagon and in to the cold air
  476. >You're sure to close and lock the door behind you
  477. >No need to have your wagon ransacked while away
  478. >You head out of the parking garage that you've chosen
  479. >You're now out on the main strip of Las Pegasus
  480. >Neon signs, brightly colored lights, and various p0nies crowd the busy streets and side walks
  481. >Where are you going to search?
  482. >Knowing Anonymous he's eating breakfast/lunch at a nearby restaurant
  483. >He could also be getting a drink from a bar if there's one nearby
  484. >Or he could be gambling his earnings away in one of the casinos...or he's at a casino bar
  485. >There's a chance he could be at a theater watching some entertainment

  500. >Oh well that last one isn't subtle at all
  501. >You grimace, you really hope your assistant isn't there
  502. >Besides why would he throw bits at mares to strip when p0nies are naked most of the time anyway
  503. >Wait...you're naked when you're in the wagon

  519. >"Oh my gosh you're The Great and Powerful Trixie!"
  520. >Hmm, maybe you could afford to stay for a little bit
  521. >Trixie: "Were you expecting anyp0ny else?"

  620. >You were correct

We've made sure to reserve a spot for you and your assistant, we expect you to perform within a week's time. We cannot wait to watch. Signed, Princess Celestia.

  793. >He's probably going to say something about having a wet mare on his chest
  794. Damn it Trixie why don't you think things through?!
  795. >Instead of a smart flank comment he stares at you with wide eyes and with red tinted cheeks
  796. Anon: Uh...Trixie? You just kissed me...
  797. >Now it's your turn to blush
  798. >Yeah you just did that
  799. >You couldn't get off of him any faster than you just did
  800. >Trixie: Trixie was just...overly excited is all. It's not like she wanted to kiss you or anything...imbecile.
  801. >Anonymous chuckles before shaking his head
  802. >He gets to his feet
  803. Anon: Uh huh, and I'm sure you hugged me because you're sick or something?
  804. >Trixie: Y...yes it was just that! Your presence sickens Trixie's body to such a degree it caused her to have a mild seizure.
  805. Anon: Yeah sure, anyway I just scored us the opportunity of a lifetime. Your name will be up in lights, everyp0ny who's anyp0ny is going to be there. If you pull this off your dream will have come true.
  806. >You stand in silence and analyze Anon's worrds

  842. >You feel his hand as he runs it along your head next
  843. >You sigh happily and close your eyes
  844. >A lazy smile appears upon your face
  845. Anon: I can see what you're worried about, you're going to do fine. Remember you're not doing this alone, don't forget you've got me to back you up.
  846. >Trixie: Yeeeeesssss that Trixie does...
  847. >This feels so good...what manner of sorcery is this?
  848. Anon: Then what's to worry about? You and I kick ass in a week, then you get your fame.
  849. >Anonymous has a way with words and his hands
  850. >You've never let him place his filthy hands on you before
  851. >But now you can't imagine why you'd ever NOT let him
  852. >Trixie: Okay.
  853. >When his hand runs along the back of your neck you shiver with delight
  854. >Then he stops
  855. >You open your eyes and see him start to strip
  856. >Trixie: What are you doing?
  857. >He strips down to a pair of black boxer shorts
  858. Anon: I'm gonna celebrate
  859. >You notice his bicep no longer has a wrapping on it
  860. >In fact...he just used both hands to remove his clothing
  861. >He notices you staring at his now healed limb

  876. >Trixie: Your contract specifically states that you are not allowed to use property belonging to Trixie without her consent!
  877. Anon: I don't remember asking your permission to use your pans to make you breakfast
  878. >You say nothing, how can you, he's got you beat there
  879. >Anonymous smirks before drinking more of your booze
  880. >He's insufferable!

  887. Anon: Doesn't that hurt?
  888. >You shake your head
  889. >Trixie: Not as much as one would think. Trixie is flexible.

  943. >Then bam, random alien bum outta nowhere
  944. >Well...you can't call him a bum anymore
  945. >You saw to that one, you were not going to have a smelly alien in your company
  946. >You got him clean and shaved, you got him some new clothes, got his nails clipped, and got his teeth whitened
  947. >You must admit he looks great, not that you'd ever tell him that of course
  948. >Nor would you ever make it easy for him
  949. >You don't know if it's the alcohol or what that's helping you to realize this, but you know you're treating him quite poorly
  950. >It's like, you're given this present, and all you do is step on the damn thing
  951. >Making him sleep in the floor, having him be at your every beck and call...even hurting him it seems.
  952. >All the while threatening to toss him out on his sorry flank were he to ever cross you

  996. >Anonymous spits out the Applejack Daniels that he tried to drink down
  997. >His eyes are wide with surprise, you must have sobered him up with that comment

  1013. Anon: Oh? Well go ahead and tell me what it is, I'm listening.
  1014. >You open your mouth to speak
  1015. >But nothing comes, you can't think of a single good reason why you've treated Anon like you did
  1016. >Honestly you're surprised he stuck around
  1017. >You close your mouth and look back to your empty bottle of whiskey
  1018. Anon: Thought so.
  1019. >Anonymous stumbles a bit but he manages to get out of the tub
  1020. Anon: Ya killed the mood blueberry.

  1023. >You down the bottle he left with you
  1024. >Ah there's that familiar burning in the back of your throat
  1025. >It causes you to wheeze your vision blurs yet again
  1026. >You smile to yourself before drinking down some more
  1027. >Trixie: Aaaaah there...there we go....hehehehehe
  1028. >Sweet nectar of the gods...precious booze
  1029. >You nuzzle your bottle of Vodka

  1042. >Oh Celestia what is this
  1043. >There's this feeling coming up from within your stomach and lungs
  1044. >You can't breathe...
  1045. >You feel pressure being applied to your chest in a steady rhythm
  1046. Anon: Damn it Trixie come on!
  1047. >Suddenly the pressure stops
  1048. >You feel air being pushed down your throat and in to your lungs
  1049. >Whatever's within you is being forced up
  1050. >You heave
  1051. >Your eyes shoot open to find Anonymous kneeling over you
  1052. >Here it comes...
  1053. >You sit up, tilt your head to the side, and vomit
  1054. >First water leaves your system...but it isn't over yet
  1055. >The sweet nectar you consumed starts coming up as well
  1056. >Your bathroom floor becomes coated in the liquid your body has expelled
  1057. >You start shivering like mad
  1058. >When your bowels are finally empty and when the dry heaving stops you take lungfuls of precious air
  1059. >You start coughing while forcing air back in to your lungs
  1060. >You feel Anonymous run his hand along your back in a slow, back and forth rhythm
  1061. Anon: Calm down Trixie, slow, steady breaths come on.
  1062. >You're still in shock from what happened but Anon's soothing voice and his hand help tremendously
  1063. >Finally your breathing settles into a slow and steady rhythm
  1064. >Trixie: Ugh...what...what happe-
  1065. >You're pulled in to a hug
  1066. Anon: Oh thank god you're okay.
  1067. >Trixie: Anon...
  1068. >You look up to him to see he's looking straight ahead
  1069. >He's pulled you in to his lap

  1072. >Trixie: Trixie...fell asleep in the hot tub didn't she...
  1073. >He nods
  1074. Anon: I came back to check in and I saw you under the water...you weren't breathing so I dragged you out and performed CPR.
  1075. >Trixie: You...you saved Trixie's life....
  1076. Anon: Well yeah...I don't want you to die ya know.
  1077. >Trixie: But...but Trixie has been terrible to-
  1078. Anon: Shhh, cut that shit let's get you cleaned up alright?
  1079. >You can't really do anything else other than nod weakly.
  1080. >He gets up and lets you sit there while he runs a bath for you
  1081. >You just sit there and try to collect your bearings
  1082. >After a few minutes pass he comes back over to you
  1083. >You try to get to your hooves but they feel like jello
  1084. >Anonymous notices, he wraps his arms around you and lifts you up
  1085. >He carries you over to the bathtub and sets you in it
  1086. >It's a little hot but you get used to it
  1087. >He helps wash you, while he does that you use magic to bring your toothbrush and tooth paste.
  1088. >You brush your teeth while in the tub in order to get rid of the acidic feeling on your teeth
  1089. >With the washing and tooth brushing finished he drains the water in the tub and wraps a towel around you
  1090. >He lifts you yet again and dries you on the go
  1091. >When he gets to your room and sets you on your bed you try to speak up for a second time
  1092. Anon: Trixie just be quiet, I'll be right back.
  1093. >And with that he walks out of your room.
  1094. >He comes back in with some bread on a plate and a glass of milk.
  1095. >He sits down with you and puts the bread in front of you
  1096. Anon: Now I'm not a doctor but milk always helps me when I've got an upset stomach. I'm sure yours feels like hell after vomiting.
  1097. >You nod weakly
  1098. Anon: And I assume haven't eaten anything since breakfast so here's some bread.
  1099. >Again you nod, you lean in and eat a piece of bread from off the plate.
  1100. >You virtually inhale the bread, little to no chewing occurred.
  1101. >Anon doesn't seem happy with that
  1102. Anon:Don't eat too fast now or you'll just make shit worse.
  1103. >Sweet Celestia he sounds like your mother
  1104. >You smile to yourself before levitating the milk out of his hands
  1105. >Trixie: Thank you...
  1106. Anon: You're welcome, listen. I'm gonna go clean up the mess you made in the bathroom alright. I'll be back in a few minutes.
  1107.  
  1108. >As you sit and eat the bread Anon left for you, you go over what's happened.
  1109. >You got drunk as all get out and fell asleep in the hot tub
  1110. >Obviously you drowned, Anon gave you CPR
  1111. >Then he helped clean you up AND he got you something to help calm your troubled stomach
  1112. >That on top of how he's been over the last few months...
  1113. >Your mother would be pissed for NOT introducing him to her
  1114. >She's a little...out there sometimes
  1115. >Oh Celestia you could probably picture what she'd say if she knew
  1116. >Trixie what's your deal?! Why aren't you married to that hairless ape? Have you been gettin that Hot monkey dick?
  1117. >Why aren't there little abominations running around here? Where's my grand monkey-filly...things?
  1118. >You giggle to yourself before shaking your head
  1119. >You're getting WAAAAAY too far ahead of yourself there
  1120. >Meh, a mare can dream can't she?
  1121. >The day your mother found out is the day you'd die of embarrassment
  1122. >Speaking of which you haven't written a letter to her in a while
  1123. >Your attention is drawn to your door when Anon steps back in to the room
  1124. Anon: How ya feelin?
  1125. >Trixie: Trixie feels... a little better.
  1126. Anon: Well good, and shame on you. You got me so scared you killed my buzz.
  1127. >Trixie: Trixie is sorry
  1128. Anon: Don't worry about it I'm just joking.
  1129.  
  1130. >You groan in annoyance before finishing off the rest of the bread on your plate
  1131. >The milk is next to fall to your maw's unforgiving thirst
  1132. >After you finish your 'meal' Anon takes your empty plate and glass and sets them on your night stand
  1133. >Trixie: Why are you being so nice to Trixie...? Trixie thought she killed your mood.
  1134. >Anonymous sighs before shaking his head
  1135. Anon: Trixie, you almost died, there's no way in hell I'm going to have you do anything right now. I'd feel like shit if I did.
  1136. >Trixie: Why save Trixie? She treats you like a dog.
  1137. Anon: I guess you could say so we could be even.
  1138. >You look up to him, he's currently looking out of the window of your wagon
  1139. >Trixie: When did Trixie save you?
  1140. Anon:When you took me in to your wagon and off the streets.
  1141. >You allow yourself a small smile, you just know you're going to be hearing some praise from him
  1142. Anon: I was a starving bum in the streets before you came to Baltimare, I was barely scraping by. Without any sort of help from those p0nies I wouldn't have made it through the winter here. Then I saw your little performance and I took a chance, thankfully you were doing horrible up there.
  1143. >You snort when he mentions how shoddy your previous performances were, but he's right.
  1144. >You were seriously lacking
  1145. Anon: And because you saved me from dying in the streets I signed that obviously terrible contract and i put up with you. It's the least I could do for the generosity you showed me that other p0nies wouldn't.
  1146. Anon: Though there's one thing I have to ask
  1147. >Trixie: What's that?
  1148. Anon: Why are you like this anyway? You seem like a nice mare you shouldn't have to just push others in to the dirt just to make yourself look better.
  1149. >You frown deepens
  1150. >Trixie: Yes...yes she does.
  1151. Anon: Really?
  1152. >You nod, you're about to drop your persona for this one
  1153. >Trixie: As you've seen...I'm not that...talented. When I was a filly mother always told me that I would grow up to be a star...and I believed her. I wanted to show mother that she was right about me. That I could have my name up in lights...I practiced magic but I'm wasn't that good... my mother was disappointed in me. When I went out on my own I wanted to prove to mother that I was worth something, that even though I was a failure I could make it if I tried...and all I did was fail. My magic was terrible and nop0ny wanted to see it...so I had to become a boastful...arrogant p0ny I had to ooze confidence if I wanted to have a p0ny come to one of my shows...for years I had to act like I was the best thing to ever appear in Equestria...and eventually I began to believe I was...my magic never got any better and my attitude got worse as a result...until...well....here I am.
  1154. >You offer him a nervous grin before looking anywhere but him
  1155. Anon: Did...did you just speak in the first person?
  1156. >There's going to be a dead human on the front page tomorrow
  1157. >Trixie: Anon i swear to Celestia they will not find the
  1158. >Anonymous wraps you up in a hug
  1159. Anon: Trixie come on I'm not that heartless. I was just trying to make ya laugh.
  1160. >You give him a deadpan glare
  1161. >Trixie: i just poured my heart out to you and you pull that?
  1162. Anon: Yes.
  1163. >He shoots you a grin and you lose it
  1164. >You feel your rage break
  1165. >Your right eye twitches
  1166. >You open your mouth to yell at him
  1167. >He brings his lips to yours cutting you off from your impeding list of insults
  1168. >Your eyes widen in surprise
  1169. >That rage is still there though
  1170. >You moan out your surprise, Anon takes it as something else all together
  1171. >You don't know how it happened but you end up on your back with your hooves on Anon's shoulders
  1172. >Even though Anon's pissed you off you have to say you don't hate this
  1173. >In fact, you can feel your anger start to melt away
  1174. >When he finally pulls away and allows you to get some air you think
  1175. >Thank Celestia you're thorough with your tooth brushing
  1176. >Trixie: What was that?!
  1177. Anon: That, was me saying...maybe you have a good excuse for being a bitch sometimes...and maybe you're not that bad of a mare.
  1178. >After saying that he pokes your nose with his index finger
  1179. Anon: And you, you're no failure. You're a damn good magician. You've come a long way.
  1180. >Trixie: Because you made me practice...and practice...and practice.
  1181. Anon: Yeah look where it got you? It got you some recognition, enough for me to be able to convince two Princesses to watch YOU.
  1182. >Trixie: To watch us you mean.
  1183. Anon: I'm just the assistant, my name's not gonna be up there with yours. This is your time Trixie, you've worked your little flank off for this.
  1184. >Trixie: And you helped
  1185. Anon: That I did, you needed help and I provided it.
  1186. >Trixie: What's your point?
  1187. Anon: Trixie I'm just the guy who gives you confidence, the magic, your performances, that's all you.
  1188. >Trixie: But-
  1189. >He cuts you off
  1190. Anon: And when you perform for the Princesses in a week then that'll prove to everyp0ny that you ARE great and powerful and that nop0ny out there can wow the crowds quite like you.
  1191. >Trixie: But what I get the jitters out there, what if I mess something up?
  1192. >Anon gets off of you and stands next to you bed he points to himself and says
  1193. Anon: What in Tartarus do you think I'm here for?! I'm not gonna let that happen. Think of me as you've been already, your safety net, your go to guy for ideas. Basically what I've been doing. You're going to be the one doing most of the work but that doesn't mean you have to go out there alone ya know.
  1194. >You grin, he crosses his arms and returns your grin with one of his own
  1195. Anon: When you're done with your performance there won't be any 'neighsayers' left.
  1196. >You like the sound of that.
  1197. Anon: Still have doubts?
  1198. >You shake your head
  1199. Anon: Good. Now I'm gonna have to disobey that little contract of yours.
  1200. >Trixie: Hmm?

  1226. >You nod
  1227. >Trixie: That, and I demand snuggles...
  1228. >Anonymous chuckles before smiling down at you
  1229. >Anonymous brings his arms out and wraps them around you
  1230. >He then pulls you in to a tight embrace

  1232. >You smile lazily. You could get used to this
  1233. >You nuzzle his chest and sigh with contentment

  1236. >All of it starts to take its toll on you
  1237. >Your eyelids become heavy...with a quick spell the lights are extinguished in your room
  1238. >As you start to fall asleep for the second time tonight your final thoughts are of you and Anonymous bowing together on a stage of brilliant light

  1252. >You hear his soft steady breaths as he breathes in to your mane
  1253. >So last night wasn't a drunken dream or hallucination
  1254. >This causes a small smile to creep upon your face
  1255. >You pump a hoof and whisper
  1256. >Trixie: Yes.
  1257. >Oh wait, that means if it wasn't a dream then you did something idiotic last night
  1258. >Well now you know what not to do.

  1270. >What if the two of you just shirk your duties and hang out?
  1271. >Then you'll be the laughing stock of Equestria when you fail!
  1272. >Why did you have to say anything to him?
  1273. >Maybe the two of you should wait before becoming an item
  1274. >This is nice but it isn't worth potentially ruining your career

  1319. >Trixie: I uh....um....they were bland and burned. The yokes were broken as well, terrible.
  1320. >Anon scoffs its like he can smell your bullshit
  1321. >You flash Anonymous a nervous grin before backing up out of the room
  1322. >No way in tartarus are you going to tell Anon you mindlessly woofed down his eggs like a starving mare.
  1323. >You saunter on in to your kitchen to realize you can't into cooking

  1327. >You can't make Anonymous breakfast in bed if you don't know how to cook
  1328. >...you mean you can't make YOURSELF a good breakfast if you don't know how to cook.

  1338. >Okay so you can't cook for shit, what are you going to do?
  1339. >You could try anyway, but then you'd probably set your items on fire
  1340. >So there's no way in Tartarus you're going to do that
  1341. >Instead you just magic over two bowls and two spoons from a nearby cupboard
  1342. >With the bowls and spoons now on your kitchen table you open your fridge to find a gallon of milk
  1343. >Yeah that's right you're gonna make the best cuisine known to p0ny kind.
  1344. >Cereal.
  1345. >You levitate yourself over to the cupboards above your fridge
  1346. >You open them to find a box of Lucky Charms
  1347. >Delicious marshmallows...
  1348. >As you get all the items together and as your getting Anon's bowl ready you think
  1349. >He had better love what you give him or else he'll be wearing it
  1350. >And he better not give you shit for not being able to cook
  1351. >Hmm...maybe you could just deny him of his precious snuggles
  1352. >Yeah that'll teach him
  1353. >Not being able to snuggle you would be a fate worse than death!
  1354. >At least you'd like to think so

  1365. Anon: Tixie this is delicious.

  1370. >Anonymous wipes his mouth clean of the excess milk before saying
  1371. Anon: Alright, with breakfast out of the way let's get down to business
  1372. >You nod
  1373. Anon: We need to come up with ideas for your performance, we need to have you practice so you have the magical capacity to actually perform, we need to plant a few p0nies in the audience for the 'volunteer' bit, and we need supplies. We may also need to find a p0ny to put in charge of music, lighting, artificial fog, etc. Gotta make it a show, but you've gotta be able to do more than just give those p0nies pretty lights.
  1374. >That...that's a lot to take in, and you only have seven days with which to do it.
  1375. >Trixie: Indeed...
  1376. >You look down at your bed sheets
  1377. >You really don't know if you can do this
  1378. >Suddenly Anon's hand is on your wither
  1379. Anon: Hey, don't get like that, we can do this. Just give it your all.
  1380. >You nod
  1381. Anon: So what do you want to work on today?
  1382.  
  1383. >A:Magic
  1384. >B:Getting a pony for lighting and such
  1385. >C:Getting ponies for volunteers
  1386. >D: Come up with a routine
  1387.  
  1388. (D was chosen)
  1389.  
  1390. >Trixie: Let's work on our routine
  1391. Anon: Alrighty, though just so you know, this will be nothing more than speculation. Can't have you actually practice these tricks unless you're capable of casting the spells that go with it. Let's get dressed and head out to the Royal Casino.
  1392. >You nod, the two of you get out of your bed, the two of you grab a quick shower, then with both of you dressed you head out.
  1393. >Turns out the Royal Casino isn't too far from your parking garage
  1394. >Upon entering the Casino the first thing you notice is the stainless white carpeting that lines the floors of the Casino
  1395. >From the embroidered tables, the ivory made bar, the mahogany tables, and the well dressed staff you can tell that the name of the Casino fits the theme.
  1396. >It's almost as if you're walking through a section of Canterlot Castle
  1397. >That is if Canterlot Castle had slot machines, roulette, and card tables
  1398. >As the two of you wade through the crowd you come across the stage set in the back of the Casino
  1399. >It's huge...and already the nervousness returns
  1400. >Anonymous doesn't help your nervousness; you watch as he approaches one of the employees near the stage
  1401. >You follow close behind
  1402. Anon: Hey buddy
  1403. >The stallion turns around and faces Anon
  1404. >"Yes sir how can I help you?"
  1405. Anon: Hello I'm Anon and this is Trixie, we're just coming by to get a feel for the place, see what we have to work with and such after all we'll be performing here within a week.
  1406. >The stallion mulls over some papers he's got on his clipboard before nodding.
  1407. >" Go ahead. If there's anything either of you need please feel free to ask."
  1408. Anon: First off...how many p0nies can be seated here?
  1409. >Anon motions to the rows upon rows of seats
  1410. >You only get more nervous the longer you look
  1411. >"Well, typically we can fit one thousand p0nies comfortably."
  1412. >You gulp...that's a lot of p0nies
  1413. >"But with the Princesses spreading the word about the two of you, I'd say those numbers will be doubled...at least."
  1414. >Two thousand or more?
  1415. >Well isn't that just wonderful?
  1416. >Now if you buck up it'll be in front of thousands rather than hundreds!
  1417. >Trixie: That.....that's a lot of...wow...
  1418. "That's quite the crowd eh Ms. Trixie?"
  1419. >You nod, still enraptured by the amount of seats this place has
  1420. >Then you look up and see the second and third row....then the private balconies
  1421. >Suddenly you feel light headed
  1422. >Trixie, meet floor
  1423. >Hi floor
  1424. >Blackout
  1425. >Your unconscious form hits the floor with an audible thump
  1426.  
  1427. >You wake up some time later to find Anonymous kneeling over you
  1428. Anon: Yeah she's waking up.
  1429. >"Oh, alright, thought we'd have to get the medical p0nies in here."
  1430. >You turn your head to see the stallion waving off a few worried looking p0nies.
  1431. >So what happened to you?
  1432. >Oh that's right you fainted from the sheer number of empty seats
  1433. >Can't be doing that again
  1434. >Anonymous helps you to your hooves
  1435. Anon: You alright?
  1436.  
  1437. >A: Yes I'm fine

  1443. Anon: Couldn't handle the amount of empty seats?
  1444. >You nod
  1445. Anon: Well now we have something else to work on.
  1446. >You groan before looking down at the floor
  1447. >Trixie: Trixie has never performed in front of so many p0nies before.
  1448. Anon: I know that, we've gotta get you used to that concept...so we'll be coming here everyday.
  1449. >You don't really like the sound of that, but if it'll help then you're going to have to deal with it
  1450. >You walk with Anonymous and get on stage with him.
  1451. >When you turn around and look out in to the seats you realize
  1452. >Yeah this nervousness is going to be a problem
  1453. >You start shivering
  1454. >You picture p0nies filling the empty seats
  1455. >All of them are booing or throwing trash at the stage
  1456. >Your pupils dilate as the 'scene' continues to play in your head
  1457. >That's when Anon's fingers block your field of vision
  1458. >He snaps causing your hallucination to fade
  1459. Anon: Come on Trixie snap out of it.
  1460. >Trixie: Who huh..wha?
  1461. Anon: There's no one sitting out there except...that p0ny.
  1462. >He points to a p0ny in a straight jacket in a seat
  1463. >When the two of you look at this p0ny it starts to bark
  1464. >Two Casino Employees start trotting over to her
  1465. >"Who let a mental patient in to the casino?!"
  1466. >A small scuffle breaks out and after a few minutes they manage to detain the p0ny.
  1467. >When the p0ny is escorted out of the building you and Anon begin discussions on just what you're going to do a week from now
  1468. >Hopefully this planning will distract you from what's to come.
  1469. >You believe Anonymous has the wildest imagination out of any living creature here
  1470. >He suggests you do what?!
  1471. >There is no way you could pull that off
  1472. >Nor can you do half of the suggestions he threw your way
  1473. >Sure they sound spectacular, but your magic can only do so much
  1474. >You spend hours going back and forth with suggestions
  1475. >You let him know what is and what isn't a possibility
  1476. >He insists you can go with his ideas if you just got in a little practice
  1477. >What are his ideas you ask?
  1478. >For the intro he wants you to turn yourself in to lightning
  1479. >REAL LIGHTNING!
  1480. >His idea is to bring storm clouds in to the casino for you
  1481. >And he wants to give the crowd a 'controlled' lightning storm
  1482. >When one of the bolts (you) hits the stage you're going to be you
  1483. >But before that you're going to BE lightning.
  1484. >Your assistant is a bucking nut job.
  1485. >And now he's thinking of using the torch bit that he used back when you two first met
  1486. >He wants YOU to be the flame though.
  1487. >Typical pyromaniac Anon
  1488. >You like your idea a bit more
  1489. >You want to use smoke and lighting, along with music for your intro.
  1490. >It's nothing potentially dangerous to you
  1491. >It's safe.
  1492. >But that's what you've always used.
  1493. >So what do you want to do?
  1494.  
  1495. >A: Lightning Storm
  1496. >B: Torch Idea

  1502. >But...well, it's a good idea
  1503. >Just not a safe one
  1504. >When you let Anon know that you're going with that for your intro the two of you go in to your act
  1505. >After a few hours of debate the two of you have managed to agree on a routine that works for both of you
  1506. >Anonymous is going to get his chance to shine, but you'll end up eclipsing him
  1507. >It's as it should be.
  1508. >With a routine in mind the two of you end up staying at the Casino until sundown going over positioning and placement of props and such
  1509. >It's a very successful day in your opinion
  1510. >So you're going to have your little lightning storm intro
  1511. >Then you're going to do a few simple parlor tricks in order to throw off the audience
  1512. >Things like sawing Anon in half and making him disappear
  1513. >Make them think that your nothing more than just an average magician
  1514. >Then when the p0ny audience starts to lose faith...BAM
  1515. >Anon's going to start doing his thing
  1516. >You're going to break out advanced spells

  2191. >Your tongue can feel the small bumps of his veins as you travel along.
  2192. >The salt from the sweat of his skin gives him a nice flavor without it being unbearable.
  2193. >The combination of your soft, smooth fur, and the wetness of your tongue elicits a soft gasp from your 'master'
  2194. >You quickly flick your tongue along the slit of his opening to clean it of the precum that has gathered.
  2195. >It's like being given a teasingly small portion to the meal your body has been craving for too long...
  2196. >You smirk before opening your mouth
  2197. >Anonymous did say he wanted you to clean this...well he implied it.
  2198. >And if Anonymous is going to learn anything about this
  2199. >It's that you're very VERY thorough with your cleaning...

  2212. >You lean in and wrap your lips around the tip of his member yet again
  2213. >Your tongue travels in small circles along the tip of his member before you press your lips down and give it a light suck.
  2214. >His breathing becomes erratic as you start to suck harder
  2215. >That's right, let Anonymous get used to this sensation before...
  2216. >You lean in and take the entirety of his manhood in to your maw in one go
  2217. >Your tongue runs in an upward motion from the bottom of his shaft to the head as you slowly let him out of your maw
  2218. >His taste....his breathing, his scent....you can't get enough of it
  2219. >When only the tip remains you suck upon it for a moment before leaning forward yet again
  2220. >You repeat this pattern a few times, reveling in the cries of pleasure Anonymous is letting out

  2222. >You start to bob your head upon his member, slowly at first, but soon you find a comfortable pace.
  2223. >You alternate between taking all of him in to your mouth and suckling upon the tip of his head
  2224. >You bend your neck from side to side in small motions while you bob your head so as to allow your lips to twist around him.
  2225. >This new sensation appears to be too much for Anonymous to take
  2226. >Though despite his body's reactions and despite his moans you don't taste the sweet release you're hoping to get.
  2227. >Stallions only last a few seconds...perhaps Anonymous is going to be more of a labor than you thought
  2228. >No matter, you will get your reward. The one minute marker passes...
  2229. >Then the two...then the five...
  2230. >Just how much of this can Anonymous take?
  2231. >You can feel his member start to twitch more and more as you quicken your pace

  2241. >You hunger for everything Anonymous has to offer you.
  2242. >And when Anonymous' sweet seed comes pumping out of his twitching member that analogy becomes more literal.
  2243. >You greedily gulp down every bit that comes gushing from his tiny slit.
  2244. >Anonymous continues to spasm as waves of pleasure flow through him
  2245. >You sit there and suckle every last drop you can possibly get before finally letting his member out of your mouth
  2246. >You give the tip a quick kiss before you turn your head to look up at Anonymous
  2247. >He looks down at you, you notice his face is flushed and he is breathing in a quick and shaky rhythm
  2248. >You see sweat running down his face and neck
  2249. >When you have his attention you show him what a good job you've done
  2250. >By opening your mouth to show him the seed you have yet to swallow
  2251. >You close your maw and play with his seed around your mouth for a bit.
  2252. >Despite him cumming twice this substance still has a high viscosity....almost like honey
  2253. >You swallow, when you feel the last of it roll down your throat you open your mouth yet again to show him your now empty mouth.
  2254. >Anonymous looks on breathlessly.
  2255.  
  2256. Anon: I...uh...wow...that was...something.
  2257. >He doesn't appear to be able to say much else
  2258. >He leans back and places his back upon the bed
  2259. >You watch on from your position as his chest rises and falls as he breathes
  2260. >Slowly but surely his breathing finally goes back to a steady rhythm
  2261. >He may be able to relax but for you that's an entirely different story
  2262. >You may have been able to satisfy him but you've yet to receive reciprocation
  2263. >You can feel the interior muscles of your marehood clench and expand in anticipation
  2264. >You turn to see that your sex has left its own stain upon the hardwood floor of your wagon
  2265. >Your body craves him, your nethers hunger for his seed.
  2266. >Just the thought of his sex forcing its way in to your marehood inch by agonizing inch.... causes your body to shiver with delight.
  2267. >You want nothing more than for him to get up, throw you on the bed, and rut you until neither of you can move.
  2268. >But unfortunately he seems to be spent...
  2269. >You grind your teeth in anger, maybe using your mouth wasn't the wisest idea.
  2270. >But hey, it seems as if humans have quite the recovery time
  2271. >Maybe he'll be ready to go if you give him a break!
  2272. >Then he'll take you...oh you'll need to change the sheets after he's done
  2273. >But it'll be sooo worth it!
  2274.  
  2275. >A:Give Anonymous time to recover
  2276. >B:Use magic and make him ready now
  2277. >C:Let Anonymous sleep for the night
  2278. >D:Go get a midnight snack

  2281.  
  2282. >You end up climbing on top of him and taking a place upon his torso
  2283. >When you make yourself comfortable you sit and watch him with contentment
  2284. >Though you can't seem to shake this involuntary spasm that involves your tail raising up as high as it can.
  2285. >Hurry Anonymous, your body can't stand much more of this wait
  2286. >You get the urge to lower yourself and 'consume' Anon's lower half yet again
  2287. >But you're sure that if you try that right now you'll get little to no response
  2288. >So you'll just sit here and....
  2289. >Your inner thoughts are cut off when Anonymous runs his digits along your scalp and through your mane.
  2290. >You sigh happily and lean in to his hand as he continues to pet you
  2291. >When his hands brush along your horn it feels like a bolt of lightning just ran its course through each nerve in your body
  2292. >Your eyes shoot open, your body seems to lock up from this sudden stimulation
  2293. >Anonymous is quick to notice this
  2294. Anon: Whoa...I didn't think that'd happen if I touched your horn.
  2295. >He lightly runs the tips of his fingers along the base of your horn
  2296. >Your body visibly shakes under his touch
  2297. >When his index runs along the tip of your horn your cry out in delight
  2298. Anon: I guess horns are pretty sensitive huh?
  2299. >You can only nod
  2300. Anon: Does it feel good? Something being sensitive isn't necessarily a good thing...
  2301. >He repeats his movement and he ends up receiving virtually the same response from you
  2302. >When he sees your pleased smile he smiles in return
  2303. >Then you gasp as his hand wraps around your horn
  2304. >Your human is giving you a horn job...
  2305. >You struggle to keep your breath steady as the nerves within your horn flare.
  2306. >You can't process a single thought
  2307. >Your body and mind are left to the carnal pleasures Anon's hand brings
  2308. >You've become so sensitive you can feel the varying degrees of pressure each individual finger is giving your appendage.
  2309. >Your mouth and tongue hang limply as your eyes lock on Anon's hand.
  2310. >When the tips of his fingers run along the top of your horn you let out a high pitched cry of ecstasy.
  2311. >His stimulation is having the same effect on your body as it is your horn
  2312. >When his other hand pets you from the back of your neck and down your back the movement of your fur sends a tingling sensation through your very core
  2313. >When his free hand trails along your flank your pupils shrink to the size of pinpricks
  2314. >The feeling your head is getting from him pumping his hand along your horn is unbearable as it is
  2315. >If he starts to touch your dampened nethers you have no idea if you'll be able to handle it.
  2316. >Suddenly his hand leaves your flank and you breathe a sigh of relief, then his fingers slacken around your horn
  2317. >Maybe Anonymous is done pleasing you... he had better not be...
  2318. >You look to Anonymous face to find him smiling evilly
  2319. >All at once you realize just what he's about to do
  2320. >Trixie: Don't...you...do it.....
  2321. >Anonymous gives you an innocent expression
  2322. Anon: Do what? This?
  2323. >If there's anything you will retain from tonight is this
  2324. >Anonymous can be aggressive to a fault
  2325. >But to say you didn't enjoy what came next would be a lie
  2326. >Suddenly you feel a single finger from Anonymous' left hand force its way in to your mareparts
  2327. >You instinctively tighten your inner walls around this foreign item being put inside of you.
  2328. >Then Anonymous other hand wraps around your horn yet again
  2329. >You knew he'd pull something like this...he's that kind of human...
  2330. >Anonymous pumps your horn furiously as he thrusts his finger in and out of your nethers as fast as his wrist will allow.
  2331. >The sudden sensation alone causes you to orgasm
  2332. >You feel yourself tense around the solitary finger that invades your innards
  2333. >The noise of his finger as he pumps it in to your now soaked lower half does little to deter Anonymous.
  2334. >In fact, he somehow manages to speed up his efforts, your mind goes numb as you feel your magic being forcefully gathered around your horn
  2335. >The warmth generated from your magic and the friction of Anon's hand is too much
  2336. >Your horn discharges a spell, lucky for Anon his position leaves him out of harm's way
  2337. >Your spell flies past his head and hits a nearby lamp, turning it in to a pot of flowers.
  2338. >The danger doesn't stop Anonymous from continuing
  2339. >Your sensitive walls clamp down upon his finger again as another wave of euphoria washes over you
  2340. >You know you're dampening the blankets of the guest bed but you don't care
  2341. >These sensations have you hooked, you don't want Anonymous to stop
  2342. >Anonymous is all too willing to keep going
  2343. >His pace doesn't slow and you cry out yet again when you feel a second finger enter you
  2344. >The next few minutes are a blur to your body experiences orgasms again and again
  2345. >Your horn continues to discharge spells with reckless abandon
  2346. >The fur on your hid hooves are soaked, you assume Anon's arm is in the same state
  2347. >Yet Anon doesn't stop... you feel something coming
  2348. >Your body begins to shiver uncontrollably
  2349. >Your heart is beating a mile a minute
  2350. >You struggle to compose yourself but because of the continuous horngasms you can't focus on anything
  2351. >Your body seizes when you finally release the building pressure you were feeling in your loins
  2352. >Finally it happens... you nearly scream as your body releases your built up pleasure
  2353. >Now this particular release causes Anonymous to stop...
  2354. >When you're finally able to comprehend real life the only thing you can focus upon is how blurry your vision had become, how tired your body is, and the smell of your heated sex...
  2355. >Anonymous' voice sounds so far away...
  2356. Anon: Wow...I didn't think p0nies could do... that's an odd color...
  2357. >When this....particular release ends...your exhausted mind and body can no longer keep you standing.
  2358. >You collapse in Anon's lap and let sweet sleep overtake you.
  2359. >You wake the next morning smelling of blue berries
  2360. >You open an eye and look over yourself
  2361. >You smile to yourself when you realize that after you passed out last night Anonymous was kind enough to wash you.
  2362. >You look to find him sleeping peacefully next to you.
  2363. >You lean in and plant a soft, gentle kiss upon his lips.
  2364. >You wouldn't mind simply going back to sleep
  2365. >But you know you have to meet with that stage lighting and music pony at some point today
  2366. >A sigh of annoyance escapes you
  2367. >Why can't you just take a day to enjoy yourself?
  2368. >After all, you haven't been with a p0ny like you've been with Anon here in a while
  2369. >You should be making him treat you to dinner!
  2370. >He should be buying you delicious flowers!
  2371. >Then you need to enforce more massages and belly rubs.
  2372. >Instead the two of you are forced to work.
  2373. >Trixie: Hmph!
  2374. >Oh well, you'll have time to make Anonymous do those things, after all it's not like he's going anywhere after your performance.
  2375. >Now, what to do....
  2376.  
  2377. >A:Go back to sleep
  2378. >B:Wake up Anonymous and make him make you breakfast.
  2379. >C:Get yourself dressed and ready to start the day, let Anonymous sleep
  2380.  
  2381. (C was chosen)
  2382.  
  2383. >Since Anonymous was such a good...assistant last night you're going to let him sleep
  2384. >You quietly slip out of bed and out of your bedroom
  2385. >When you enter the kitchen you turn to the front door and find your hat and cape on the coat rack by the door
  2386. >You try to concentrate on a levitation spell so you can bring your items over to you but pain spreads throughout your skull causing you to wince
  2387. >Anonymous' horn job must have drained you of your magic... it might be a while before you're able to cast a spell
  2388. >At least he wouldn't ask you to train up your magics for today
  2389. >Instead of levitating your hat and cape you instead walk over and dress yourself.
  2390. >After that you decide you're going to just make a couple of daisy sandwiches for breakfast
  2391. >When you make your meal and finish you head in to your bathroom, freshen up, and head back in to your room to find Anonymous dead asleep.
  2392. >You kind of want to keep letting him sleep but the pony you're supposed to meet may be waiting at the Royal Casino already.
  2393. >Suddenly a knock at your wagon door calls your attention.
  2394. >You wonder who could be at your door this early in the morning
  2395. >With curiosity guiding your actions you leave your bedroom and head over to your front door.
  2396. >You part the curtains covering your front door's window to find
  2397. >Filthy Rich
  2398. >He gives you a smile when he sees you
  2399. >You open the door to greet him with your stage persona of course.
  2400. >Trixie: Rich, what are you doing at Trixie's Wagon this early in the morning?
  2401. >Filthy: But Ms. Trixie, it's almost noon.
  2402. >Well didn't somep0ny oversleep?
  2403. >You assume it's because Anonymous is a huge flank face because he wanted to make you pass out.
  2404. >Damn him and his dexterous hands...
  2405. >Filthy continues
  2406. >Filthy: We have three p0nies eagerly awaiting you back at my casino.
  2407. >Trixie: Who did you find?
  2408. >Filthy: We found the number one DJ in Manehattan, Vinyl Scratch. That mare knows how to make a show.
  2409. >Trixie: Okay... who else?
  2410. >Filthy: We managed to get an orchestra from all the way in Canterlot. A mare by the name of Octavia is speaking on behalf of her fellow band mates.
  2411. >Trixie: Sounds interesting...now who's the last one?
  2412. >Filthy: Two...traveling sales p0nies. The Flim Flam Brothers. They've even gone and invented a machine that not only makes music, but can produce its own lighting for the show!
  2413. >Filthy seems eager to show you what his bits are capable of getting
  2414. >That last one doesn't sound too appealing but you might as well give them a fair shot.
  2415. >There is one problem though
  2416. >Anonymous is still asleep
  2417.  
  2418. >A:>"Trixie should tell Filthy to buck off. Trixie and Anonymous will be at the Casino when we are good and ready!"
  2419. >B:>"Trixie must make something for Anonymous before leaving. He will catch up after he eats."
  2420. >C:>"Trixie will go with Filthy Rich now, whether Anon knows your whereabouts or not is of no conern to her!"

  2423. (d was chosen)
  2424.  
  2425. >You suppose you'll get him up.
  2426. >After all he's going to want to meet these potential ponies as well.
  2427. >Trixie: Give Trixie a moment.
  2428. >Filthy nods and you trot back to your bedroom.
  2429. >You shake Anonymous and after a moment he wakes
  2430. >Trixie: Finally, it's almost noon, Filthy's here, and he has p0nies lined up for us to interview.
  2431. >That helps get rid of whatever fatigue Anonymous was feeling from just waking up
  2432. >He nearly leaps out of bed
  2433. Anon: Alright let me get dressed and we'll go.
  2434. >You nod and leave the room, leaving Anon to his own devices.
  2435. >You rejoin Filthy and wait
  2436. >Five minutes later Anonymous comes out dressed in a black suit.
  2437. >He still isn't finished dressing himself but you've wasted enough time waiting
  2438. >The three of you set out for the Casino while Anonymous buttons up his white undershirt and adjusts his red tie.
  2439. >He seems presentable when your little group finally arrives outside of the Royal Casino
  2440. >Upon entering the main floor of the casino you find a crowd of p0nies gathered at the right side of the dining area of the casino
  2441. >Your potential talent is probably there.
  2442. >A small monolith-like metal contraption looms over the p0nies
  2443. >It stands at the left of the table they're gathered around
  2444. >You assume that's the machine Filthy was telling you about.
  2445. >That...thing is a few feet taller than Anonymous
  2446. >Filthy: Well there they are, good luck you two.
  2447. >And with that Filthy trots off in some random direction to take care of...whatever it is he takes care of.
  2448. >You and Anonymous approach the crowd of p0nies and they part for you
  2449. >Their parting catches the attention of the p0nies you're here to see.
  2450. >The four of them look your way.
  2451. >When they see you approach the twin unicorns wave.
  2452. >Judging by their red and white streaked mane's and half apple cutie marks you discern the two of them to be the Flim Flam Brothers
  2453. >You can tell that from just their smiles that they'll probably try to suck up to you in order to get you to choose them.
  2454. >Then comes the white unicorn with her electric blue mane. She moves her goggles down to look upon the two of you with her blood red eyes.
  2455. >That's Vinyl Scratch if you're going off of appearances.
  2456. >To see such eyes comes as a surprise to you, but it's not as if you're afraid you're just curious.
  2457. >Is red her natural eye color or is she using magic to make them that way?
  2458. >Either way... when you see her eyeing your assistant like a piece of meat, and when she winks at him you give her a glare that would make Discord himself be filled with fear.
  2459. >The unicorn gulps nervously before pulling her goggles back up over her eyes. The fourth p0ny there sighs before shaking her head.
  2460. >This earth p0ny appeared to have a dark gray mane and tail, a light gray coat and light purple eyes,
  2461. >Unlike the Flim Flam brothers who seemed to give off the feeling of a couple of con artists, or the white whorse she seems to carry herself with an air of dignity.
  2462. >Her mannerisms reminded you of the p0nies you performed for in Canterlot... and you're not too big of a fan of Canterlot p0nies...
  2463. >They have a tendency to see themselves above everyp0ny else..
  2464. >You and Anonymous take your seats.
  2465. >You sit next to the canterlot p0ny... Octavia if you remember correctly
  2466. >Anonymous sits next to the whorse Vinyl Scratch.
  2467. >Even from behind the goggles you can tell she's looking between you and him nervously.
  2468. >Your face remains neutral but inside you're giggling like a school filly
  2469. >It's good to know you can come off as intimidating
  2470. >The whorse is the first to start off with the introductions
  2471. >Vinyl: Suuuup? If you guys can't already tell by my awesome goggles and plot mark I'm Vinyl Scratch.
  2472. >The two brothers speak simultaneously
  2473. >Flim & Flam: We're the Flim Flam brothers! Inventors of the patented Music Maker 4000!
  2474. >The two point towards the monolith next to Anonymous.
  2475. >Octavia clears her throat daintily before speaking in a dignified tone
  2476. >Octavia: Octavia of the Canterlot Orchestra, charmed I'm sure.
  2477. >She closes her eyes, her chin rises slightly, and she offers you one of her front hooves.
  2478. >You begrudgingly shake her hoof. You have no idea how you're able to do that.
  2479. >And judging by Anonymous' staring he can't either
  2480. >You chalk it up to magic like every other thing that doesn't make sense around here.
  2481. >You decide you're going to introduce Anonymous since he'd probably come off as an idiot
  2482. >Trixie: And as I'm sure you're aware this is the Wonderful and Amazing Anonymous. He's a little... special you may have to speak slowly.
  2483. >Anonymous points to you and speaks before you can introduce yourself.
  2484. Anon: And that's the Great and Powerful Pain in My Ass.
  2485. >Vinyl laughs, as do the Flim Flam Brothers.
  2486. >Octavia looks between you and Anonymous before shaking her head in disappointment
  2487. >You're not too bothered by that
  2488. >Who bucking cares what she thinks? She's here to impress you, not the other way around.
  2489. >That reminds you, should you just go ahead and make your choice now and cut out the time you'll be spending with them
  2490. >Or should you give each of them a chance? After all, if you were to make a deicision now you probably wouldn't choose any of them.
  2491. >Con Artists
  2492. >Whorse
  2493. >Or Spoiled Canterlot P0ny
  2494. >Choices...

  2504. >Perhaps you'll find one of them tolerable enough to choose.
  2505. >You and Anonymous engage in small talk with your potential musical assistants.
  2506. >Anonymous talks to Vinyl and the Flim Flam Brothers while you get stuck with Octavia.
  2507. >From what you can gather it seems like Vinyl and Octavia both have been in the music business for a good number of years
  2508. >The Flim Flam brothers on the other hand have just recently gotten into the music business... like last week recent.
  2509. >They were able to build this monolith in that time and it apparently plays music.
  2510. Anon: Why don't you give us a little taste of what this thing can do?
  2511. >Anonymous points to the contraption after requesting
  2512. >Flim and Flam back and forth nervously before grouping up and speaking with one another.
  2513. >Both seem reluctant to turn on the machine for Anonymous
  2514. >Finally Flim decides to be the big brave stallion
  2515. >His horn begins to glow and the machine begins to glow with the same color as his magical aura.
  2516. >Suddenly music begins to play out of the monolith... at least you think it's music you don't know.
  2517. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QodrSfsboFk
  2518. >That isn't music
  2519. >That isn't music at all. What is this?!
  2520. >Is someone strangling a cat?
  2521. >Flim and Flam notice not only your disapproval, but the disapproval of everyone that can hear this monstrosity.
  2522. >Flim tries to turn it off but the music only gets louder
  2523. >Electricity starts to spark from the machine and finally it stops playing
  2524. >Smoke rises from the top of the monolith
  2525. >Flim and Flam seem to shrink back from the glares of the Casino p0nies.
  2526. >Flim: Oh brother of mine... we should go...
  2527. >Flam: Yes!
  2528. >The two move faster than the naked eye can track
  2529. >Unfortunately they left their 'music' machine behind
  2530. >At least you weren't stupid enough to pick them
  2531. >To have something that plays garbage and breaks isn't something you want anyway
  2532. >That just leaves Octavia and Vinyl for you to choose between.
  2533. >Finally one of the Casino Waiters comes over to your table menus in hoof
  2534. >He passes them out to your group
  2535. >"It's on the house."
  2536. >Vinyl hoof pumps
  2537. >Vinyl: Yes!
  2538. >After the rest of you thank him the waiter departs

  2550. >And Octavia ordered a salad
  2551. >The waiter bows to the four of you before departing
  2552. >In order to help pass the time you and Anonymous spent your time speaking with your respective choices.
  2553. >Vinyl and Anonymous seemed to be cracking up at a joke he told
  2554. >You and Octavia get down to brass tact.
  2555. >Octavia has been playing the cello for a certain number of years
  2556. >She's been the top cellist in the Canterlot Orchestra ever since she became a part of it.
  2557. >She tells you about their conductor and her ability to properly set the mood on a whim without the need of music sheets
  2558. >Basically the Canterlot Orchestra can make a masterpiece out of nothing
  2559. >You have no idea what Vinyl brings to the table but it certainly seems like Octavia beats Vinyl in the skill department.
  2560. >Though, you have to say, Octavia is a bit arrogant.
  2561. >Then again most Canterlot ponies are.
  2562. >Vinyl over there seems to be a hoot.
  2563. >Though you don't like how comfortable the two seem to be getting
  2564. >Anonymous seems to be marveling at Vinyl's natural red eye color
  2565. >You feel this deep seated rage burning within you
  2566. >But you're not some hick trash pony you can keep your anger in check... sometimes...
  2567. >You ask Octavia if she knows Vinyl and Octavia looks away in disgust
  2568. >Oct: I have had the displeasure of knowing that mare yes.
  2569. >Trixie: Really? Where did the two of you meet? Trixie is curious
  2570. >Oct: We attended the same college, we were room mates.
  2571. >Vinyl's ears perk up at the mention of her name
  2572. >She and Anonymous stop conversing and instead join your conversation
  2573. >Vinyl: Yeah and I remember Ms. Prissy Pants over here being a snob.
  2574. >Oct: I was not being a snob, I am well cultured. A brute such as yourself would not understand.
  2575. >Vinyl: Brute?
  2576. >Oct: Yes, brute. Your 'parties' attest to the insult.
  2577. >Trixie: Hmm?
  2578. >Octavia turns to you then points to Vinyl
  2579. >Oct: That mare never slept! She'd keep me up all night with her wild parties and terrible music.
  2580. >Vinyl's jaw drops before her eyes twist into fury
  2581. >Vinyl: Terrible music?! How dare you insult my wubs! At least my music can get ponies moving. Your boring garbage puts everyone to sleep!
  2582. >Octavia sighs before rolling her eyes
  2583. >Oct: I shall insult your *ahem* 'wubs' in any way I see fit. As for my melodies they are not boring, they are for ponies who have a taste for quality music. Your new age filth cannot compare.
  2584. >Vinyl smirks, her anger seemingly evaporated
  2585. >Vinyl: You're calling my music filthy? I guess that means you and my music have something in common, except you get trashy after a single sip of Applejack Daniels.
  2586. >You see Octavia's eye twitch
  2587. >Vinyl's smile gets bigger
  2588. >Vinyl: Oh I remember that night just fine, this mare's a little whorse. She had all the stallions at that party.
  2589. >Oct: How dare you make up such rubbish?!
  2590. >Vinyl: How dare I? I didn't make you drink. You were stressed about a test, me being a caring friend, offered you a drink to loosen up. I didn't think you'd loosen up THAT much. Besides you're only calling it rubbish cause you can't remember a bucking thing.
  2591. "How loose we talkin?"
  2592. >Vinyl turns to Anon
  2593. >Vinyl: Ever heard of the old adage 'Throwing a hot dog down a hallway?' I swear if you shout into Octavia's plot you'll hear an echo.
  2594. >The two burst out into fits of laughter
  2595. >You don't find it amusing
  2596. >Octavia's face flushes a bright red before she stares daggers at Vinyl
  2597. >Well then... time to change topics!
  2598. >Trixie: Ahem... uh.... how about those uh... Wonderbolts?
  2599. >No one seems to be listening to you.
  2600. >Anon and Vinyl are still laughing while Octavia is gritting her teeth
  2601. >You turn to Anonymous, if he stops laughing Vinyl will in turn.
  2602. >Trixie: Anonymous shut it.
  2603. >He turns to you wiping away tears
  2604. "What why?"
  2605. >You glare before pointing to Octavia
  2606. >Anonymous sees just how angry the Orchestral mare is getting and he promptly stops
  2607. >Vinyl keeps going for a little bit, but when she sees no one else is laughing she stops as well
  2608. >There, now that that bit is over with maybe you can get to another question or something?
  2609. >Before you can open your mouth to say anything the waiter comes back with the food in tow
  2610. >He sets out your plates and water before departing yet again
  2611. >The four of you eat on in relative silence
  2612. >Though no one is saying anything you can feel this air of anger coming off of the two music ponies.
  2613. >They occasionally cast a glare at each other while eating
  2614. >If Vinyl doesn't pull her act together you're going to end up kicking her out of the running
  2615. >Same goes for Octavia. The two are easily provoked.
  2616. >And you don't want to hear all of their dirty little secrets from college life
  2617. >Anonymous seems to notice their anger as well
  2618. >When he finishes eating he gives the group a suggestion
  2619. "How about we all... uh... go back to the wagon after this? We got some drinks and a hot tub. It'd be a chance for everyp0ny to relax and enjoy themselves? Don't feel pressured or anything, but I can't help but feel that everyone is pissed."
  2620. >Octavia doesn't seem to like that idea
  2621. >Anonymous notices that
  2622. "You don't have to drink liquor we got more than that, but a hot tub doesn't sound that bad does it?"
  2623.  
  2624. >A:Go with Anon's suggestion
  2625. >B:See if there's a show going on in Las Pegasus
  2626. >C:Go to a strip club
  2627. >D:Go for a stroll around Las Pegasus
  2628. >E:Play some poker with Anon, Vinyl, and Octavia
  2629.  
  2630. (A was chosen)
  2631.  
  2632. >You've decided to go with Anonymous' suggestion.
  2633. >Maybe a little booze will loosen everyone up
  2634. >Perhaps it'll get Vinyl and Octavia to stop harassing each other
  2635. >Besides they're probably only doing this out of nervousness anyway
  2636. >You're sure both wish to perform in a show that both Princesses will be watching.
  2637. >With that in mind you, Anon, Vinyl, and Octavia leave for your wagon
  2638. >But before you go you're sure to have Anon leave a few bits for the waiter
  2639. >A few minutes pass in silence as the four of you make your way to the parking area
  2640. >When your wagon comes into view Vinyl throws a hoof into the air and let's out a joyous shout
  2641. >Octavia doesn't seem to be as open about this.
  2642. >You know this probably isn't the cellist's favorite thing to do but then again why would you care?
  2643. >She's the one who came to you after Filthy's proposition, you didn't go to her
  2644. >If Octavia doesn't like it she's free to leave you won't stop her
  2645. >It doesn't take long for Anon to open the door and lead your group inside
  2646. >Vinyl seems to enjoy your interior while Octavia turns her nose up to it
  2647. >The longer you spend time with the cellist the more you're becoming inclined to go with Vinyl
  2648. >Yes despite the way she was looking at your Anon you might just choose her over Octavia
  2649. >You can only take snobbish actions for so long
  2650. >Anonymous leads the four of you to your bathroom and to your hot tub.
  2651. >As you and the two other mares wait for the water to heat up Anonymous leaves the bathroom to prepare your bottles of booze
  2652. >Well... booze for you and Vinyl and some water for Octavia
  2653. >Mare isn't going to get drunk, sounds professional to you.
  2654. >One point for the cellist. Too bad Vinyl seems happy as can be to get some liquor into her body
  2655. >Damn rave ponies...
  2656. >As the three of you wait on the water and Anonymous you realize that this is the first time you've been alone with the two of them.
  2657. >This could be your chance to get to know Vinyl, perhaps she's not as bad as you think
  2658.  
  2659. >A:Stand in silence
  2660. >B:Strike up a conversation with vinyl
  2661. >C:strike up a conversation with octavia
  2662. >D:go help Anon gather the drinks
  2663.  
  2664. (B was chosen)
  2665.  
  2666. >Trixie: So... Vinyl?
  2667. >Vinyl turns to you, her attention finally stolen away from the slow bubbling of the hot tub waters
  2668. >Vinyl: Yeah sup?
  2669. >Trixie: Tell me, why do you want to take this job?
  2670. >Vinyl: Oh that's an easy one. I wanna show the Princesses what new age music sounds like. Let em get a taste of awesome ya know? Besides I think your show would do good with a few wubs.
  2671. >Trixie: Oh really?
  2672. >Vinyl: Yeah, get them ponies really into your shows. Wow em with your magic while I wow em with my music. Me and a few of my buddies saw one of your shows in Manehattan and let me tell ya... my music, your performance, perfect syncro...syn...synim...
  2673. >Octavia sighs before shaking her head
  2674. >Oct: She means synchronization.
  2675. >Vinyl point to Octavia
  2676. >Vinyl: Yeah that word.
  2677. >Well, Vinyl seems confident that her music will do the trick. You already know Octavia is thinking the same thing about her music.
  2678. >She told you that she wanted to make your performance elegant and breathtaking.
  2679. >Judging by what you know of the Canterlot Symphony Octavia and her band mates are more than capable of doing just that.
  2680. >But the new age music is all the rage nowadays. Even though it sounds like nothing more than random noises in repetition it might just draw a larger crowd....
  2681. >Why does this have to be so difficult?!
  2682. >Your thoughts are interrupted by Anonymous when he walks into the bathroom.
  2683. >You see he's carrying multiple bottles of Applejack Daniels, Orange Family Vodka, and of course water in his hands.
  2684. >Now remember Trixie... do NOT pass out in the hot tub again...
  2685. >One bottle of Applejack Daniels and thirty minutes later you're feeling much better than you did back at the Casino.
  2686. >You're sure Anon and Vinyl share your sentiment. Just like in the casino the two are sharing stories and laughing all the while.
  2687. >Octavia seems to be silently eyeing the two as they enjoy themselves
  2688. >Oct: Brutes...
  2689. >Despite Octavia saying that quietly Vinyl's ears perk up to Octavia's insult.
  2690. >Vinyl turns to Octavia and removes her goggles
  2691. >You can see the anger in Vinyl's blood red eyes
  2692. >Vinyl: You're just jealous cause nop0ny wants to hang out with your stuffy flank!
  2693. >Octavia: Excuse me?!
  2694. >Vinyl: Yeah you heard me! You're so dull and boring no wonder nop0ny likes being around you.
  2695. >Octavia's eye twitches
  2696. >Octavia: The only ponies I like to keep company with are those of the higher class... you know ones that don't drain bottles of liquor like water? Respectable ponies?
  2697. >Vinyl growls
  2698. >Vinyl: I think you need to lighten up!
  2699. >Vinyl's horn begins to glow and a bottle of Orange Family Vodka floats in front of Octavia's face
  2700. >Octavia: Vinyl what are yo-
  2701. >Her voice is cut off when the Vodka top is opened and aimed at Octavia's mouth
  2702. >Vodka fires out in a compressed stream and into Octavia's maw
  2703. >Octavia pulls away coughing furiously she holds up a hoof to block the stream of liquor from hitting her
  2704. >Anonymous flicks Vinyl's horn, causing her to lose the hold on the bottle.
  2705. >It hits the hot tub and sinks below the surface... such a waste...
  2706. "Vinyl what the hell is wrong with you, you don't just do things like that!"
  2707. >Vinyl: I'm sorry I couldn't help it she just pisses me off!
  2708. >Octavia's coughing fit starts to die down
  2709. "Hey Octavia you okay?"
  2710. >Seems like he's forgotten all about being insulted by that mare just a minute before.
  2711. >Octavia: *cough* Yeah I'm *wheeze* fine... oh... oh my...
  2712. >Octavia's eyes go half lidded and you see a line of blush along her cheeks
  2713. >Octavia: I feel... so... warm.
  2714. >Vinyl: Heh lightweight.
  2715. >No kidding, Octavia probably spat out more than she drank so there's no way she should...
  2716. >Octavia let's out a drunken hiccup
  2717. >Okay maybe there is a way.
  2718. >Octavia: That... that wasn't very nice Vinyl..
  2719. >Before Vinyl can respond Octavia's front hooves move in a blur
  2720. >Suddenly the bottle in Vinyl's hand disappears.
  2721. >Vinyl looks to her now empty hooves in surprise
  2722. >Vinyl: Dude what?!
  2723. >The three of you look to find Octavia now downing a bottle of Applejack Daniels.
  2724. >She sighs happily when a third of it's contents have been consumed
  2725. "Vinyl what did you do?"
  2726. >Vinyl: I think I've made a monster...
  2727. >Trixie: Good job...
  2728. >Octavia looks between the three of you
  2729. >Octavia: Why *hic* why are you all st... staring at me like that? Where's the beats?!
  2730. >It's hard to make out what she's saying from her slurred speech but you think she's asking for music
  2731. >She takes another swig of the bottle while the rest of you sit and watch her in silence
  2732. >Vinyl: Uh... Tavi?
  2733. >Octavia shoots Vinyl a drunken smile while drinking
  2734. >Some of its contents ends up running down the cellist's chin
  2735. >She wipes her mouth off before acknowledging Vinyl
  2736. >Octavia: Yeeees?
  2737. >Vinyl: Want some music?
  2738. >Octavia: Yeeeeeees. But none of yours *hic* it... it sucks...
  2739. >Vinyl floats over to Octavia
  2740. >Vinyl: What the hay even with booze you're still a cunt!
  2741. >Octavia stares at Vinyl silently
  2742. >Vinyl: Can't find anything to say now?! Huh?
  2743. >Octavia: You have beau *hic* tiful eyes.
  2744. >Vinyl's taken aback by Octavia's statement
  2745. >Vinyl opens her mouth to react but before she can Octavia leans forward and plants her lips onto the DJ's.
  2746. >Vinyl's eyes widen in shock and she ends up pulling away from Octavia
  2747. >Or at least trying to, Octavia puts her front hooves onto Vinyl's withers and keeps her in place
  2748. >You and Anon watch on in silence as Octavia deepens the kiss
  2749. >Anon's mouth hangs open in shock
  2750. >Vinyl wasn't lying when she said Octavia was a bit of a loose mare when she got the booze
  2751. >After what felt like an eternity Vinyl manages to pry herself away from Octavia
  2752. >She wipes off the saliva collected from the sloppy drunken kiss
  2753. >Vinyl: What was that?!
  2754. >Octavia winks before going back to her booze.
  2755. >She pulls away the bottle after half of the contents are gone
  2756. >Octavia: Y..you're next monkey man...
  2757. >And now somep0ny's done struck a nerve
  2758. "I don't think so miss... I'm kinda with Trixie here."
  2759. >Anonymous points to you and you shoot Octavia a cocky grin.
  2760. >Octavia waves a hoof dismissively
  2761. >Oct: Nonsense *hic* Anonymous... a common show mare d...doesn't hold up to a p.. pony of my *hic* stature.
  2762. >Vinyl seems to be trying to remedy the situation
  2763. >Vinyl: Uh... Trixie... yeah this is my fault this is the liquor talking....
  2764. >Unfortunately it's a little too late for that
  2765. >Octavia calling you a show mare was making your anger reach it's peak
  2766. >You manage to maintain a neutral expression for the sake of professionalism
  2767. >Octavia was nice and had proper manners before Vinyl forced alcohol down her throat
  2768. >And now Octavia's drunken shenanigans is getting on your nerves
  2769. >You REALLY didn't like what she just tried to pull.
  2770. >But you do have to make a choice
  2771. >It's either one of them or no music whatsoever...
  2772. >You practice deep breathing exercises in order to maintain the illusion of you not being angry
  2773. >Make your choice Trixie...
  2774.  
  2775. >A: Vinyl
  2776. >B: Octavia
  2777.  
  2778. (A was chosen)
  2779.  
  2780. >This decision is much harder than you would have thought.
  2781. >The choice itself takes you a good half an hour to make
  2782. >If only you were allowed more time
  2783. >Unfortunately with your performance only being a few days away that's a luxury you don't have
  2784. >Octavia's face seems to turn a sickly green color
  2785. >Vinyl: Oh lord here we go
  2786. >Octavia scrambles out of the hot tub and over to the toilet
  2787. >Oct; BLLLLLLLAAAAARRRGH!
  2788. >She vomits into the toilet bowl
  2789. >Despite the fact that Octavia is in the condition she's in because of Vinyl
  2790. >She isn't going to be your choice
  2791. >You've decided that new age music will be the music you'll be using.
  2792. >You'll wait until tomorrow though before saying anything.
  2793. >You spend the rest of the night sharing small talk with Vinyl while Octavia hovers over the porcelain.
  2794. >You give Vinyl and Octavia the guest room while you and Anon take your room.
  2795. >Hopefully Vinyl and Octavia will not notice the 'love stains' in the floor
  2796. >You should have cleaned that up... well Anon should have anyways.
  2797. >As Anon wraps his arms around you and pulls you close you sigh happily
  2798. >Tonight despite Vinyl and Octavia's back and forth... wasn't that bad of a night.
  2799. >Next day...
  2800. >You wake up to find Anon gone.
  2801. >Probably making breakfast or cleaning up
  2802. >You get out of bed and make your way out into the hallway to find Vinyl looking into your bathroom.
  2803. >Odd... what could be...
  2804. >You trot over to Vinyl and look inside to find Anon with a mop and bucket
  2805. >He's cleaning up the mess... oh my Octavia left quite a mess.
  2806. >You were a bit... tipsy so you have no idea just how much damage had been done
  2807. >Octavia missed the toilet completely...
  2808. >Vomit... everywhere...
  2809. >You cringe in disgust
  2810. >Trixie; That's disgusting...
  2811. "Yeah it is. Want to help?"
  2812. >You laugh in response
  2813. "Thought so... "
  2814. >Vinyl: Yeah... and guys... Octavia left. She remembered what she did... she was so embarrassed she left as soon as she woke up.
  2815. >Trixie: That's fine by Trixie. She has chosen you regardless. Octavia has only done Trixie a favor.
  2816. >Vinyl hoof pumps in victory
  2817. >Vinyl: Aww yeah! I promise you guys are totally going to love the music.
  2818. >Trixie: Trixie hopes so... after all your reputation is at stake. It'd be a shame if the Princesses didn't like your music.
  2819. >Vinyl: Yeah... no pressure!
  2820. >Vinyl looks around nervously.
  2821. >So what are you going to do today?
  2822.  
  2823. >A: Nothing
  2824. >B: Practice Magic
  2825. >C: Practice Routine
  2826.  
  2827. (A was chosen)
  2828.  
  2829. >You spend the day doing nothing more than what you did yesterday.
  2830. >You sift through a few books
  2831. >You chat with Vinyl
  2832. >Anonymous cleans up the entire bathroom
  2833. >Overall a non productive day
  2834. >Perhaps it may have been wise to get more practice in but whatever you can afford a break
  2835. >When nightfall comes Vinyl takes her leave to go work on her music
  2836. >You and Anon go to bed rather early tonight
  2837. >Next day. You have only one more day before the fated performance.
  2838. >The two of you wake up when the sun rises
  2839. >Today you need to accomplish something
  2840. >You remember Diamond Tiara being a whiny cunt insisting that she see the show before everyone else
  2841. >But you don't really care about her, she holds no importance in your eyes
  2842. >So what are you going to do today?
  2843.  
  2844. >A:Go to Filthy Rich's Casino and perform for DT
  2845. >B:Stay in your wagon and practice magic
  2846. >C:Spend the day in your wagon just you and Anon
  2847. >D:Go about the city with Anon

  2853. >You know you're going to have to practice just a little bit more.
  2854. >After all, you cannot afford mistakes for tomorrow
  2855. >Anonymous agrees wholeheartedly. So after breakfast you get started.
  2856. >Today you pour your entire being into this practice
  2857. >You just have to be ready. No screw ups, no nervousness, no hold back.
  2858. >You wow Anonymous with your abilities
  2859. >He needs to take some of the credit though. Without him none of this would have been possible.
  2860. >You smile to yourself as you watch him watch the effects of your magic in awe
  2861. >You spend a good eight hours practicing each and every spell you'll be using for tomorrow night's performance.
  2862. >Admittedly when dinner rolls around you were... quite famished
  2863. >You ravaged the salad sandwiches Anonymous made for you
  2864. >All six of them... by the time you plate was cleaned you were feeling... pretty stuffed.
  2865. >Anonymous hadn't even finished his meal yet
  2866. >He stares at you in mid bite with eyes as wide as saucers
  2867. >He sets his sandwich back on his plate
  2868. "So... you were hungry huh?"
  2869. >You can only nod in response
  2870. "Well I hope you don't get like that after your show. I'm sure the Princesses are going to want to talk after all is said and done."
  2871. >Well doesn't that just add on to what's going to be an interesting night?
  2872. >Thanks to your practice sleep comes easy for you
  2873. >You and Anonymous wake up the next afternoon... oh dear you slept in quite a bit
  2874. >It's around noon... and it's the day of your performance... there's still a lot that needs to be done
  2875. >You wake up Anon and the two of you take care of your morning... now afternoon routines.
  2876. >While en route to the casino you and Anonymous start discussing what props is going to be set where.
  2877. >You have seven hours to complete your task of setting up the stage.
  2878. >As you near the casino you see a large line leading out into the streets.
  2879. >Ponies line the block... and two of the adjacent blocks
  2880. >You can feel nervousness welling up inside of you but you manage to maintain a calm demeanor
  2881. >If you start freaking out now you might as well kiss your chance at fame goodbye
  2882. >It may have been best to go about the city while you were here so you could get used to the large crowds
  2883. >Oh well, you'll wing it and if you so happen to get nervous you have Anon to back you up
  2884. >Everything should be fine
  2885. >So why are you sweating? Stop sweating!
  2886. >You find yourself walking behind Anon rather than next to him
  2887. >Unfortunately that doesn't stop the ponies in line from spotting you
  2888. >"There she is!"
  2889. >"It's Trixie!"
  2890. >"Can I get an autograph?"
  2891. >"We love you Trixie!"
  2892. >Oh Celestia why?
  2893. >Anonymous turns around
  2894. "Come on Trixie your adoring fans await."
  2895. >Trixie: "Oh Trixie's fine thank you. She'd like to go inside the casino please."
  2896. >Anonymous gives you a disapproving look.
  2897. "That's no good Trixie. You're going to be-"
  2898. >You cut him off
  2899. >Trixie: Performing in front of everyp0ny? She knows.
  2900. >You shiver. There goes calm... right out the window.
  2901. >Anonymous sees that this is bothering you so he helps break apart the gathering crowd so you can get into the casino.
  2902. >And inside it seems to be even more packed then outside
  2903. >Ponies stand wither to wither in the waiting area
  2904. >Cameras are going off everywhere around you
  2905. >A few here and there are fine
  2906. >But with this many... it's blinding
  2907. >Without Anonymous guiding you via your cape you would be struck blind in the crowds.
  2908. >Eventually he leads you to the theater where the stage awaits. There are a dozen bouncer ponies guarding the entrance.
  2909. >Luckily they're doing a good job at keeping the other ponies away.
  2910. >As you and Anonymous near the stage you find Filthy Rich and a very angry Diamond Tiara
  2911. >The little filly calls out the to of you
  2912. >DT: You were supposed to be here yesterday for my show!
  2913. >FR: Now now pumpkin the two of them had to practice for tonight... would you rather them perform for you and mess something up, or perform tonight with perfection?
  2914. >Filthy seems to have set the bar a little high for you
  2915. >Diamond Tiara groans
  2916. >DT: I guess so... but I still don't like having to watch with everyp0ny else!
  2917. >You and Anonymous get onto the stage
  2918. >Luckily Filthy managed to diffuse the situation with the spoiled filly before things went too far.
  2919. >That helps to keep your anger in check. You're happy to find Vinyl hard at work on a turntable set to the left of the stage.
  2920. >You spot your props back stage
  2921. >Looks like Filthy got everything you needed for tonight
  2922. >That's great. You're getting music, you're getting support, and everything is going to be in order.
  2923. >So why can't you shake the growing fear of performing in front of a huge crowd?
  2924. >Probably because you've never had to do that before
  2925. >You sigh deeply, tonight is going to be a rough night.
  2926.  
  2927. >A: Skip to performance
  2928. >B: Fill in gaps before performance
  2929.  
  2930. (B was chosen)
  2931.  
  2932. >Six hours remain until the show tonight.
  2933. >You spend it going over what you're going to do for tonight.
  2934. >Luckily Thunderlane, Lyra, and Gilda show up.
  2935. >You show them the seats where they'll be sitting at and you make a mental note to remember where they sit.
  2936. >Vinyl gives you a small taste of what she's got planned
  2937. >It sounds good... at least to Anonymous it does
  2938. >You're not as big of a fan, to you it's little more than noise
  2939. >But if it's what the younger generation is into nowadays...
  2940. >Five hours remain until tonight's show
  2941. >The ponies who've paid for their tickets in advance are getting to meet you and Anonymous before the show
  2942. >You and Anon shake a few hooves, answer a few questions, and pose for a few pictures with them.
  2943. >All in all you manage to kill yet another hour with mingling with the small crowd.
  2944. >Four hours remain...
  2945. >You're starting to pace back and forth along the stage
  2946. >Anonymous is busy talking to Filthy Rich about something
  2947. >You have no idea what you're nerves are too busy eating away at you
  2948. >More ponies are starting to fill the seats though not many
  2949. >There's maybe one hundred ponies in total right now
  2950. >You see Diamond Tiara and another filly playing in one of the private balconies
  2951. >Other than that you're not doing much of anything else.
  2952. >Three hours remain...
  2953. >You're busy inspecting the equipment with Anonymous and a few tech ponies
  2954. >So far everything seems to be in order
  2955. >Nothing's warped, everything well lubricated so there'll be no echoing squeaks, nothing seems cheaply made or thrown together.
  2956. >Though the rings you were going to use might be a little risky.
  2957. >They might not hold Anonymous' weight.
  2958. >Anon insists it'll be fine but do you want to take that risk?
  2959. >Two hours remain...
  2960. >The crowds are coming in to claim their seats early and you're busy watching them sift through the various seats around the theater
  2961. >You and Anonymous are to remain backstage for the duration of the wait.
  2962. >You take this time to eat and use the restroom, as does Anon.
  2963. >There won't be time for breaks. There is no intermission planned for your act.
  2964. >Tonight you'll be going in full force without a break
  2965. >Can you handle it? You had better...
  2966. >Anonymous has the utmost confidence in you...
  2967. >He spends his time pepping you up, reassuring you that you'll be fine
  2968. >Vinyl is testing her sound equipment to make sure everything's in working order.
  2969. >They've moved her and her equipment in front of the stage so that way you and Anonymous will have the entire stage to work with.
  2970. >You peek out from behind the curtain to look over Vinyl's equipment.
  2971. >You see various nobs, dials, switches, and records set along an enormous turntable.
  2972. >That thing has to be five yards in length at least... how is she going to be operating all of that?
  2973. >Oh magic... that's right.
  2974. >Vinyl seems to be drooling over her equipment... you've seen her nuzzle it once or twice while calling it her "Baby."
  2975. >You'll never understand this DJ and her love for music.
  2976. >One hour remains....
  2977. >You can't do this you can't do this!
  2978. >You're entire body is shaking with fright
  2979. >You keep rechecking yourself in the mirror
  2980. >Everything is in place
  2981. >Your mane is beautiful there isn't a strand out of place
  2982. >Your cape is without a wrinkle, your hat is retaining it's look
  2983. >It doesn't matter how great everything seems... you're still damn nervous
  2984. >Anonymous has been spending his time massaging your withers in hopes of calming you down
  2985. >It's helping... slightly...
  2986. "Trixie you need to calm down. This'll be a cakewalk for you."
  2987. >Trixie: "NO IT WON'T!"
  2988. >Anonymous seems taken aback from your shouting
  2989. >Trixie: "Stop saying that! This is going to be my... our most challenging show yet and you expect me to be calm?!:"
  2990. >You rush over to the bathroom mirror to check over yourself yet again
  2991. >Anonymous is right behind you
  2992. >He takes a seat next to you and drapes an arm over you
  2993. >Trixie: "How...?"
  2994. "How what?"
  2995. >Trixie: "How are you so calm about all of this? You don't seem to be breaking down at all..."
  2996. >He takes a deep breath before looking at you via the mirror
  2997. >You take a look... a real good look
  2998. >There are bags under his eyes. It looks like he hasn't been getting that much sleep lately
  2999. >You've been spending so much time worrying about you that you haven't taken him into account.
  3000. >He looks awful... finally he speaks.
  3001. "Listen... I'm nervous too... but I'm not going to let it control me. I can't... if I do I'll mess up and I'll be out of a job. I just think about what I'm going to do and I do it."
  3002. >He gets to his feet and leans over the sink. He turns the knobs and starts washing his hands.
  3003. "I... I tune out the crowds and I focus upon what I'm doing... when I perform a stunt or trick I do it for myself not my audience... I don't need to prove anything to them at least that's my mindset. I have to prove to myself that I can do it. That my training has paid off. If I've accomplished something then great, the audience loving what I'm doing is an added bonus."
  3004. >You're starting to understand where Anonymous is coming from... you think.
  3005. "You have to realize that when you're out there. Whatever you do is for you, not for them... when you realize that you will be so focused upon what you're doing you won't even realize anyone is out there..."
  3006. >A tech pony comes into the bathroom.
  3007. >"Five minutes till showtime you two."
  3008. "Ready?"

  3017. >You sigh to yourself before shaking off whatever bits of doubt and nervousness still remain
  3018. >It doesn't work at all, oh well you'll just have to work through it
  3019. >You head out of the restroom and over to the left side of the stage
  3020. >You're behind the curtain... you can hear the audience chatting among themselves
  3021. >You can hear the crowd begin to cheer, you believe the Princesses have finally made their appearance
  3022. >"It's Celestia! Get a picture!'
  3023. >Yeah that pretty much confirms your suspicions.
  3024. >You can hear the sounds of shutters as ponies in the audience begin to take pictures.
  3025. >One of the officials behind stage give you your signal to begin the intro
  3026. >You sigh to yourself as your horn begins to glow, your body does so in turn.

  3035. >The music begins. Vinyl starts off with a soft repetitive beat with a few keystrokes of a piano mixed in.
  3036. >It's not as bad as you thought it was going to be. In fact... it's actually able to help you concentrate.
  3037. >You feel yourself begin to break apart from your magic
  3038. >Bit by bit, piece by piece your body dissolves into a mess of thousands of multi-colored particles.
  3039. >Vinyl speaks into the microphone, a smile plastered on her face.
  3040. >Vinyl: Are you ponies excited? Let me hear it!
  3041. >The ponies respond with a loud cheer and the stomping of hooves
  3042. >Their show of affection echoes throughout the auditorium nearly deafening everyp0ny to the music.
  3043. >Vinyl: If that's the case then boy are you ponies in for a treat tonight!
  3044. >As she speaks thousands of small orbs now float above the curtains and out into the crowd.
  3045. >Due to the only light coming from the spot lights illuminating the stage and Vinyl's stand your form is effectively lighting up the darkened area around the crowded seats.
  3046. >The crowd "ooos" and "aaahs" as you float around them a few ponies poke the orbs as they pass but that does nothing to deter the spell.
  3047. >Eventually the particles that make you culminate a few feet above the stage.
  3048. >The orbs sink into each other until only four larger ones remain
  3049. >As the music continues to play the orbs that are you change color in time with the music
  3050. >When you've effectively formed a square in the air the four orbs begin to spin in a clockwise pattern
  3051. >Slowly the orbs begin to build up speed as they begin to spin
  3052. >Soon you become a combination of streaked colors
  3053. >Then the spinning orbs unleash a torrent of multi-colored rain
  3054. >The rain is focused upon the center of the stage
  3055. >Like the orbs each individual droplet is a different glowing color
  3056. >A few ponies look on in dismay a few believe they're going to be drenched.
  3057. >But when they realize that not a single drop of "rain" is an actual liquid they calm down
  3058. >Vinyl: The Royal Casino proudly presents: A pony who hails from the city of Manehattan, a pony who's magic can wow and astound anyp0ny.... give it up for....
  3059. >As the "rain" continues to fall, it slowly starts to form you
  3060. >First your hooves, then your body, the neck comes next... when your head, cape, and hat are fully formed you breathe a sigh of relief.
  3061. >Vinyl: ...The Great and Powerful Trixie!
  3062. >You take a bow and the crowd erupts in a stomping ovation yet again
  3063. >A few whistle and cheer loudly while others simply watch in awe.
  3064. >Needless to say that one spell took a bit out of you so you take this time to pace around the stage
  3065. >You look at the crowd... and realize that there really are a lot of ponies
  3066. >The music's stopped and when the enthusiasm dies down silence reigns supreme
  3067. >The only sound made is the clopping of your hooves as you pace and look at the audience
  3068. >You can feel your nervousness beginning to swell from within, a lump in your throat begins to form
  3069. >It only gets worse when your eyes cast up to find both Luna and Celestia watching intently.
  3070. >You keep your fake smile on though for the crowd.
  3071. >You should be eating this up... but this fleeting feeling from within your chest prevents you from doing so
  3072. >Just introduce Anonymous and get to the next trick... that's all you have to do right now.
  3073. >Or you could engage the crowd for a moment
  3074. >What are you going to do?
  3075.  
  3076. >A: Engage the Crowd
  3077. >B: Introduce Anonymous
  3078.  
  3079. (B was chosen)
  3080.  
  3081. >You decide it'd be best to just go on with the show.
  3082. >If you engage the audience now you'll probably stutter like a mad mare
  3083. >You sigh before giving the crowd another smile
  3084. >Trixie: While Trixie may be great and powerful she cannot do it alone. It is HER pleasure to introduce you fine ponies to: The Wonderful and Amazing Anonymous!

  3086. >The music starts up yet again, as it starts to fade out for a quieter beat Anonymous is lowered in.
  3087. >You look up to see Anonymous hanging upside down on a single metal ring
  3088. >The ring itself is on fire, but the fire isn't a real one. It's made to look real though... and it's quite convincing
  3089. >His feet hold strong as he's lowered when the ring comes to a stop you take a few steps to your right so you're not where he's going to land.
  3090. >You see Anonymous is carrying two lit torches, one in each hand.
  3091. >While upside down he spins both flaming torches within his hands
  3092. >It's a brilliant display of moving flames and light
  3093. >His eyes are covered by a blindfold for the entire duration of his "dance"
  3094. >His movements are graceful... none can match his talents
  3095. >the torches move around his front, under his arms, around his feet
  3096. >The fire streaks around him as if flaming comets were dancing around his person
  3097. >Both controlled by the masterful hands of Anon
  3098. >Suddenly Anonymous tosses them into the air above his feet
  3099. >He dismounts, performing a single front flip before landing upon the stage
  3100. >He turns to the crowd with a smile, his hands out above him
  3101. >The lit torches come spinning down... he catches them both without burning his hands.
  3102. >His blind self turns to the left... and you're not there.
  3103. >You clear your throat and Anonymous turns to you with a smarmy grin
  3104. >He did that on purpose... the crowd laughs as does he.
  3105. >Though they aren't laughing at him... at least you hope they aren't.
  3106. >Using your magic you disperse the flames and remove his blindfold.
  3107. >Anonymous wraps the blindfold around the two torches... before tossing them to the audience.
  3108. >A souvenir so a lucky pony remembers tonight... why didn't you think of something like that?
  3109. >A few earth ponies outstretch their hooves in hopes of catching them, but then multiple auras form around the torches
  3110. >Looks like the winner will be a unicorn... suddenly a golden aura wraps around the torches
  3111. >Or a Princess... the torches float up to the private balcony that Celestia and Luna are currently sitting at.
  3112. >Celestia grabs hold of them, undoes the blindfold, then passes a torch to Luna
  3113. >Celestia has a triumphant grin upon her face which shows for maybe a second before disappearing.
  3114. >Luna doesn't seem as amused about obtaining a torch as Celestia is.
  3115. >Oh well, her loss.
  3116. >Now, you just have to figure out what to do next.
  3117. >You have your routine set up to do just about everything you want to do.
  3118. >The order is up to you.
  3119.  
  3120. >A:Cutting a person in half trick
  3121. >B:Acrobatics trick

  3126. (E was chosen)
  3127.  
  3128. >Trixie: Trixie's first trick shall be a dangerous one. For Anonymous that is.
  3129. >Anonymous turns to you, his grin has gone from a confident one, to a nervous one.
  3130. "And just what did The Great and Powerful Trixie have in mind?"
  3131. >Trixie: Oh nothing major... just a simple trick with...
  3132. "With...?"
  3133. >Trixie: Lightning!
  3134. >Your horn begins to glow, and as it does, lightning erupts from the tip.
  3135. >Anonymous jumps back as do the ponies in the first row.
  3136. >Trixie: An untamed element of nature. One that appears within a flash. Such a destructive force! Can the Wonderful and Amazing Anonymous handle such a feat? We shall see.
  3137. >Anonymous seems to catch on to what trick the two of you are about to perform.
  3138. >Anonymous goes as far to the left side of the stage as possible
  3139. >You concentrate on the element you've grown accustomed to using thanks to your practicing
  3140. >A small orb of light is shot from your horn and it travels a good fifteen feet above you before stopping
  3141. >The orb warps and expands, soon the constantly moving element known as lightning begins to form under your magic
  3142. >Like webbing you make it branch out and extend until it's as intricate as a spider's web.
  3143. >You remember Anonymous describing to you what 'monkey bars' were and you decided to expand upon that idea.
  3144. >Now Anonymous will have bars of lightning with which to perform on
  3145. >Not a single strand of lightning is like the other, it's as if you're looking upon a kaleidoscope in design.
  3146. >Anonymous seems a little unsure considering he's never done something this intricate before
  3147. >But before you know it you're lowering your creation and he's latching onto a "bar."
  3148. >When you re-suspend it back into the air Anonymous gets to work.
  3149. >Anonymous maneuvers himself through the webbed lightning with cat like grace
  3150. >You've never seen anything like this before... you're almost entranced by the way his body moves like a fluid through your obstacle.
  3151. >You're so busy with watching him you almost forget the second part of the trick
  3152. >The lightning obstacle beings to spin with Anon still upon it.
  3153. >He's movements become slower but he's still going through just fine
  3154. >After a good ten minutes of him moving through the obstacle he dismounts
  3155. >His landing is a bit of a hit and miss. He manages to land on his feet but he stumbles
  3156. >Apparently he's a bit dizzy, not surprising.
  3157. >Still he manages to shake it off and pose for the audience
  3158. >The crowd erupts with stomping hooves
  3159. >You trot over to Anon, dismiss the obstacle, and the two of you bow.
  3160. >On to the next trick.
  3161.  
  3162. >A:Rabbit in the Hat trick
  3163. >B:Fire tricks

  3167. (B was chosen)
  3168.  
  3169. >You smile to yourself before nodding and adjusting your hat to Anonymous
  3170. >That's your signal for his favorite stunt... his smile widens
  3171. >He loves fire, it's a bit of an unhealthy love, but it always kept you rolling in bits.
  3172. "May I?"
  3173. >You nod again
  3174. "Excuse me, front row... you might want to get back. It's gonna get a little hot."
  3175. >The ponies notice his evil smile and they heed his warning.
  3176. >The front row ponies get out of their seats and move back
  3177. >Vinyl looks upon the two of you nervously and you wave a hoof dismissively before turning to her turntables
  3178. >She didn't have any music for your lightning considering she didn't want to risk damaging her equipment, but fire is a different story for this mare.
  3179. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fhj30f3aJ0&feature=relmfu
  3180. >The next beat starts and Anonymous walks off stage to get his equipment.
  3181. >He comes back with the cornstarch and a new set of torches
  3182. >You can smell the fuel on his torches from here...
  3183. >When he places the cornstarch in his maw he motions for you to light his torches.
  3184. >When your horn begins to glow, and when the torches fire comes to light the ponies gasp
  3185. >Some seem content with just watching the flames as they dance over the torches
  3186. >But... Anon has a funny way of disrupting content ponies.
  3187. >He does this by breathing out the cornstarch
  3188. >The fire within both his torches flame out towards the audience
  3189. >The ones who got out of their seats were right to do so
  3190. >Anon's flames snake over to the seats
  3191. >A few feet more and a pony could have been walking out with singed fur
  3192. >When these columns of flames disperse Anon readies himself yet again
  3193. >This time when the fires emerge in two narrow streams of flame you come into play...
  3194. >The flames completely leave his torches and land in front of the front row chairs
  3195. >The flames do not disperse... instead they seem to elongate and split off into numerous snakes of flame
  3196. >The "heads" of each bit of flame turns into the head of a serpent.
  3197. >Their fiery fangs are apparent as the flames hiss towards the crowd of ponies
  3198. >A few of the peagsi take to the skies, the unicorns teleport on top of their chairs
  3199. >The earth ponies do nothing more than raise their hooves off of the ground as the flames come slithering by.
  3200. >There appears to be at least two fire snakes per each row within the audience
  3201. >The crowd is dead silent, they're too busy eyeing what they think to be monsters
  3202. >Oh you'll show them monsters, another spell is cast and each fire serpent sprouts their very own wings
  3203. >Some take to the skies while others remain slithering around chairs on the ground.
  3204. >What a lot of ponies find confusing is, instead of any of the serpents striking any of the ponies they instead slither and fly around them
  3205. >The ponies aren't taking any chances though and they move away as soon as a fire serpent gets too close for comfort
  3206. >Eventually you believe you've had your fun, as does Anonymous.
  3207. >The flame serpents fuse together into one large snake of flames
  3208. >It eyes Anonymous before unleashing a hiss
  3209. >It slithers onto the stage and wraps itself around Anonymous
  3210. >The flame serpent and Anonymous lock eyes for a few moments before the flames disperse and disappear
  3211. >When Anonymous bows the crowd of ponies realize that the trick is over
  3212. >When they return to their seats the enthusiastic reply to such a feat is a bit delayed
  3213. >But they stomp their ground with fervor all the same.
  3214. >Next trick.

  3222. >Trixie: Trixie requires a volunteer for this next one. Which pony has the courage to step up and be a part of Trixie's show?!
  3223. >Hundreds of hooves shoot into the air almost as if on cue
  3224. >That makes spotting Gilda, Lyra, and Thunderlane a near impossibility
  3225. >As you scan the crowd for one of the three your eyes glance up to find... that Princess Celestia is waving her hoof frantically.
  3226. >You swear you can see her saying "Oh oh oh oh up here pick me pick me!"
  3227. >Luna is shaking her head before looking away out of shame
  3228. >Eventually you point out into the audience
  3229. >Trixie: Lyra Heartstrings! Trixie sees you just fine!
  3230. >You hear a few ponies start to groan as Lyra trots to the stage
  3231. >She's got a huge smile on her face
  3232. >You find her looking over Anon as she gets on stage
  3233. >Yeah... this next trick will be pleasing for you
  3234. >You're going to make an Annoying unicorn disappear
  3235. >As she gets on stage she trots right up to Anonymous and sits
  3236. >Lyra: So guys what are we doing?
  3237. >You force a happy and respectful tone
  3238. >Trixie: Thank you so much for volunteering! Today you'll be the disappearing mare! Anonymous if you would please.
  3239. "Of course."
  3240. >Anonymous walks off stage and comes back later with a marble grey box big enough for a pony to step inside of.
  3241. >Lyra seems a little reluctant, but she knows what she signed up for
  3242. >With a reluctant gaze shot your way she trots into the box
  3243. >As the box closes you can't help but smile evilly
  3244. >Using your magic the box starts to levitate into the air
  3245. >Then it begins to spin in a counter clockwise motion
  3246. >It's slow at first... but the box begins to build speed
  3247. >Faster and faster it goes, when it stops nop0ny knows
  3248. >As the box spins it begins to glow in an eerie blue light
  3249. >The blue light grows brighter... and brighter.
  3250. >It's blinding to you and to those staring at it.
  3251. >Except for Vinyl of course, but that's because of the goggles.
  3252. >Suddenly the light dissipates as soon as it appeared.
  3253. >The box is gone... and where it ended up is unknown
  3254. >Seriously you have no idea where the box or Lyra went you just wanted them gone
  3255. >Oh this isn't good... you hope Lyra doesn't have any family
  3256. >Trixie: And there you have it! The disappearing mare!
  3257. >Your ovation isn't as pronounced as the others considering this trick was simple in nature
  3258. >Regardless you're still wondering just where Lyra could be...
  3259. >Your thoughts are interrupted when you see the air near Anonymous get sliced and torn open
  3260. >It's as if... it's as if somep0ny is tearing through reality itself.
  3261. >Suddenly you see Lyra step thruogh the tear in reality... but she's nothing like you saw her last
  3262. >One of her eyes is covered by an eye patch.
  3263. >A deep scar runs along the eye that's patched
  3264. >She's got patches of fur missing and there are various burns where the fur would be
  3265. >Her mane looks unkept... and her cutie mark is half gone, a serrated scar is cut along the middle of it.
  3266. >Lyra: How long was I gone for?
  3267. >Her voice is filled with malice
  3268. "Lyra... you were gone for thirty seconds."
  3269. >Lyra turns to Anonymous and yells
  3270. >Lyra: Where I was a decade passed!
  3271. "What did you even do there!?"
  3272. >Lyra: I stopped the Enclave and brought peace to the Capital Wasteland! I had the president's head on a rusty poll!
  3273. "What are you talking about?! Who did you kill? I don't understand!"
  3274. >Lyra: You don't have to understand Anon... well except for one thing...
  3275. >You watch as she trots over to Anonymous. She circles him much like a predator stalks its prey.
  3276. >Lyra: You, me, Trixie's wagon, tonight. I've waited ten years and I'm not waiting another day... those humans there... disgusting vagrants the lot of them. I wouldn't give them the time of day
  3277. >What...?
  3278. >She's ruining your performance and she now has the audacity to try to take your human!
  3279. >Lyra: Besides... none of them could move like you. That lightning stunt of yours... sent chills down my spine. It stuck with me for so long... I just gotta have a piece.
  3280. >Anonymous backs away slowly
  3281. "I uh... se...security?"
  3282. >Lyra smiles and her eyes go half lidded.
  3283. >Lyra: I'm all the security you'll need honey. I worked as a caravan guard for two years. One hundred confirmed kills.
  3284. >Her face seems to light up with joy when she mentions that.
  3285. >And you've heard enough. Lyra is enveloped in your magical aura and she's teleported out of the casino
  3286. >Your magic has taken her many miles out of Las Pegasus
  3287. >Hopefully she wont' be back until AFTER the performance
  3288. "Thank you..."
  3289. >He mouths the words "Damage Control" to you
  3290. >You gather your bearings and face the audience
  3291. >Trixie: And that was the disappearing, reappearing, and re-disappearing Lyra Heartstrings!
  3292. >You give the audience a forced smile and a pose
  3293. >You're given mixed signals of stomping and a lot of "what's" from the crowd.
  3294. >Probably your low point of the evening... but it could have been worse you guess.
  3295. >You haven't started running for the hills with tears in your eyes that's a good sign.
  3296.  
  3297. >A: Cut a Pony in Half
  3298. >B: Pony in a hat trick
  3299.  
  3300. (A was chosen)
  3301.  
  3302. >Your next trick shall have a pony being cut in half.
  3303. >Or more if your magic will allow it...
  3304. >Trixie: Trixie needs another volunteer!
  3305. >You have maybe a third of the ponies in the audience raising their hooves this time.
  3306. >That makes it easy to spot a certain pegasus
  3307. >Trixie: Thunderlane, if you would please?
  3308. >You point to where he's sitting and he's up on stage within a few seconds
  3309. >Wings help tremendously. He stands there ready for action.
  3310. >Anonymous heads back off-stage and he comes back with a rectangular box
  3311. >Thunderlane gulps when he sees the saw on top of the box
  3312. >Trixie: For Trixie's next trick, she shall saw this pegasus in half!
  3313. >A few ponies seem apprehensive at the thought
  3314. >But the majority cheer, eager to see your next trick
  3315. >When Anon positions the box in center stage Thunderlane trots around it
  3316. >It's as if he's inspecting it. Cute it's almost as if he knows what he's doing.
  3317. >After Thunderlane's "inspection" Anonymous opens the box and Thunderlane goes inside of it.
  3318. >When the box is closed Thunderlane looks to the crowd through the hole in the top of the box.
  3319. >His hind hooves stick out of the other side.
  3320. >Anonymous puts a padlock upon the latch of the box just to make sure Thunderlane can't escape.
  3321. >In reality it's nothing more than a scare factor... and it actually works on Thunderlane himself.
  3322. >What a pansy...
  3323. >You take the saw in your magical grip and flash the audience a smile.
  3324. >Trixie: And now fillies and gentlecolts we begin by cutting the pegasus from the waist
  3325. >The saw goes though the center of the box like a hot knife through butter
  3326. >Thunderlane's face contorts into pain, seems like he's milking the stunt a little.
  3327. >Trixie: But simply cutting him in half will not do. Oh no, not for The Great and Powerful Trixie.
  3328. >You force the saw to move around at break neck speeds
  3329. >It cuts through the box multiple times and at multiple angles
  3330. >When you feel there have been enough cuts made you use your magic to break apart, then lift each part of the box into the air.
  3331. >The ponies gasp when they see how many times the box has been cut
  3332. >They believe that it was only supposed to happen once
  3333. >Or that there were two individuals in the box now
  3334. >But there isn't... you really just cut Thunderlane into pieces
  3335. >Using the enchantment placed upon this box you're going "fix" Thunderlane
  3336. >Using your magic the pieces holding Thunderlane's parts start to spin in the air
  3337. >They spin together, creating a vortex of box pieces
  3338. >Suddenly Thunderlane's head disappears from view
  3339. >When you piece the box together upon center stage you have Anonymous remove the padlock
  3340. >Trixie: May Trixie present... the new and improved Thunderlane!
  3341. >You smile while pointing to the box
  3342. >Now you wait
  3343. >When Thunderlane stumbles out of the box he finds it hard to stand
  3344. >His tail is where his head should be
  3345. >His head is where his crotch should be
  3346. >A front and back leg replace his wings
  3347. >His wings are in the respective areas where he would be missing his legs
  3348. >And his... stallionhood appears to be in the center of his forehead
  3349. >So... he's a mismatched alicorn.
  3350. >Everyone in the crowd is dead silent
  3351. >The eyes of all view the monstrosity that is Thunderlane
  3352. >Suddenly you hear someone giggle
  3353. >Everyp0ny turns their attention to the private balcony that holds Luna and Celestia
  3354. >While Luna is staring with a slack jaw Celestia is having a giggling fit
  3355. >She can no longer contain her laughter
  3356. >She's laughing so hard she's having to hold on to her sides
  3357. >Her eyes are watering...
  3358. >Soon the other ponies in the crowd start to laugh in turn
  3359. >Thunderlane merely sighs before crossing a wing and front hoof.
  3360. >Thunderlane: This isn't...
  3361. >His own stallionhood slapping him in the face cuts him off
  3362. >Celestia looks like she's about to die
  3363. >Thunderlane: Funny.
  3364. >After the laughter dies down you decide it's time to put him back to normal
  3365. >Within the next few minutes you perform the trick again and this time Thunderlane is back to normal
  3366. >He grumbles while walking off stage.
  3367.  
  3368. >A: Finale
  3369. >B: Pony in a hat trick
  3370.  
  3371. (B was chosen)
  3372.  
  3373. >For your next trick you're going to pull a pony from your hat
  3374. >Well... in this case it'll be a griffin
  3375. >Gilda is the only one you haven't called forth as of yet
  3376. >Well whether she wants to or not is irrelevant
  3377. >Trixie: You've been such a wonderful audience tonight and Trixie wishes she could keep entertaining you... but all shows come to an end.
  3378. >A large amount of ponies let you know how frustrated they are at the concept of your show coming to an end.
  3379. >You and Anonymous work together to keep the crowd calm
  3380. >Eventually they settle down long enough for you to announce the next trick
  3381. >Trixie: Anonymous and Trixie will begin winding things down by pulling a pony from Trixie's hat.
  3382. >Using your magic you take off your hat, float it over to Anonymous and then Anonymous grabs hold of it.
  3383. >He flips it upside down and kneels so he can be at your level of height
  3384. >Trixie: Hmm.... let's see...
  3385. >You pull out a tuba, then a salmon, then a tandem bike, after that comes Lyra's head.
  3386. >And boy is Lyra looking pissed... she turns her head your way and shouts
  3387. >Lyra: I'll get you for trying to keep me away from that hot monkey di-
  3388. >You cut her off by shoving her head back into the hat
  3389. >Trixie: Um... don't worry folks that wasn't the trick... that was a fluke. Here.
  3390. >You reach in for the final time and yank as hard as you can
  3391. >Suddenly Gilda comes flying out of your hat
  3392. >She lands on center stage with an audible thud
  3393. >Gilda: Ow... wasn't expecting that dweeb...
  3394. >She still manages to stand up and face the crowd
  3395. >Gilda: What the buck ya'll starin at?
  3396. >Trixie: Ta da! Not a pony, but a griffin!
  3397. >It takes the crowd a moment to realize that was the trick
  3398. >Their ovation isn't as enthusiastic as it was for your prior tricks
  3399. >Perhaps you held back a bit too much
  3400. >Oh well... the finale will pick them right back up.
  3401. >Your last two stunts weren't worth having Vinyl play for them
  3402. >They were nothing more than to lull the audience into a false sense of security
  3403. >Now that the audience has relaxed it's time for you to bring forth the big guns
  3404. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-326-Uy8NE&feature=related
  3405. >Vinyl starts the next beat and the audience seems confused
  3406. >Trixie: Don't start relaxing just yet ponies! Tonight's going to end with a bang!
  3407. "She ain't lying folks! We're pullin out all the stops on this one!"
  3408. >The lights dim down, the ponies are leaning forward in their seats to take a better look.
  3409. >You start to concentrate, this next stunt will take every single ounce of magical prowess you posses
  3410. >It's a good thing you have Anonymous here with you
  3411. >You're going to need a pony... er... person to carry you home
  3412. >Two hours later...
  3413. >You sit there panting like a mad mare
  3414. >Anonymous just finished his artistic creation
  3415. >The crowd of ponies were subjugated to Anonymous using particles of white light as his instruments of creation
  3416. >And you have to say... the intricacy of the buildings, the emotions each pony gave... it was a master piece.
  3417. >You had created a blank canvas of specks of individual light
  3418. >Anonymous was able to manipulate the particles much as one would manipulate loose sand
  3419. >And somehow... this human was able to re-create the history he caught up on through various tomes he read throughout his stay in Equestria
  3420. >He managed something you could never hope to accomplish
  3421. >But... you'll never tell him that.
  3422. >Though... you can now see why Lyra has a thing for human hands
  3423. >Those delicate digits of his just told a story
  3424. >And everyp0ny... was cheering
  3425. >The noise was deafening
  3426. >The whistles, the hooting and hollering of various ponies from within the stands
  3427. >Even both Princesses joined in on the ovation
  3428. >Cameras are flashing non stop
  3429. >Roses are being tossed to the stage
  3430. >When you're able to gather your bearings both you and Anonymous take a bow
  3431. >Thankfully Anon speaks for you.
  3432. >He motions for the audience to cease their cheering for a moment.
  3433. "Thank you! You're a wonderful audience! Our next stop is Canterlot Square on the 18th! Be there or miss out on all the fun! Also a big round for the employees working here at the Royal Casino and who could forget the mare on the turntables...Vinyl Scratch!"
  3434. >Again the ponies erupt with cheer
  3435. >As the curtains close he helps you back stage.
  3436. >Anonymous seems to be filled with happiness and sunshine
  3437. "Trixie you were amazing out there!"
  3438. >He flashes you a huge grin
  3439. >You can only mutter a groan of exhaustion in reply
  3440. >Trixie: Trixie knows she was grand... you were lacking... like always.
  3441. >He ignores your comment considering the situation you're in
  3442. >You can hear your bed calling your name
  3443. >You stumble as you walk... you'll probably collapse
  3444. >You're sure Anon will be nice enough to carry you back
  3445. "So... what do you wanna do know?"
  3446. >Trixie: Sleeeeeeeeep.
  3447. "Yeah I'm sure... well... after you speak with the Princesses, and sign a few autographs, and go to the after party with Vinyl, and get us our bits for tonight's performance... then you can go to bed."
  3448. >Trixie: Is this the price for fame?
  3449. "It is."
  3450. >Your groaning knows no end
  3451. >Tonight's... gonna be a long night.
  3452.  
  3453. >End
  3454.  
  3455. >Epilogue
  3456.  
  3457. >After that fateful performance in front of those thousands of ponies things started going in a positive direction for you
  3458. >The after party and the autographs were tiring to say the least, but Anon was there to help you that night
  3459. >The Princesses told you how much they enjoyed your show and that they couldn't wait until your Canterlot debut
  3460. >Their approval, combined with the approval of the audience, set your heart ablaze with joy
  3461. >You don't remember sporting a frown at all that night...
  3462. >The next day the two of you were featured in the city's newspaper
  3463. >Those that didn't see your performance certainly heard about it
  3464. >Ponies from all around would hound you and your assistant day and night in hopes of catching glimpses of either of you
  3465. >You and Anonymous have truly reached celebrity status
  3466. >Soon ponies all around Equestria would spread word of your unique acts
  3467. >Canterlot, Fillydelphia, Manehattan, Las Pegasus, Cloudsdale, all passed by you in a blur over the coming weeks
  3468. >Every single performance brought something new and it'd always end in a flash of pictures, screaming fans, and plenty of bits.
  3469. >You and Anonymous have made enough to retire three times over, yet the two of you still perform
  3470. >What brings you to do such a thing some ask?
  3471. >Why... performing acts was how you managed to get such a wonderful assistant in the first place
  3472. >Who in their right mind would give up something that made them so happy and carefree?
  3473. >You would have to be a madpony
  3474. >Yet now here you are... three months after your performance
  3475. >You and Anonymous, along with Vinyl Scratch, recline on a large couch in your now luxurious wagon
  3476. >Due to the amount of bits you were making you could afford to have a wagon made to your tastes
  3477. >The outside retained a small appearance... but the real bits were spent on the work you had done inside
  3478. >Your wagon's interior has been enchanted.
  3479. >Fourteen bedrooms, fourteen bathrooms, three swimming pools, a hot tub, a bar the size of a stage, enough booze to keep you and Anonymous wasted for the next few decades, the works.
  3480. >You felt you needed more rooms. A mare could use another walk in closet... or a swimming pool.
  3481. >No Trixie, you've spent enough bits. This alone was nearly a six figure investment.
  3482. >Sure you made that back within three weeks, but still frivolous spending will keep you from truly retiring down the line.
  3483. >As of right now you, Vinyl, and Anonymous are drinking from various bottles
  3484. >Discarded bottles litter the ground around your couch
  3485. >You're excited to know that the griffins have become curious after hearing your rumors
  3486. >They wish for you to perform for them at their capitol city... for the Griffin King himself.
  3487. >Your now flying wagon is en route to the mountainous capitol
  3488. >Yes your wagon flies and it moves itself. You have bits so why not spend em making things easier?
  3489. >As your wagon draws closer you start going over routines in your head
  3490. >Your performance needs to be bold, gutsy... something that will really impress them
  3491. >Your muddled thoughts are unable to come up with anything good
  3492. >Perhaps making plans for a performance for a king while drunk isn't a good idea
  3493. >Maybe Anonymous can help you out? After all his ideas help make your show great, it's not all you.
  3494. >You turn to Anonymous for suggestions but as you watch him down a bottle of Apple JD you realize he's in no condition to help you right now
  3495. >Oh well, he'll have to help you tomorrow. After all you're only going to have three days or so to prepare
  3496. >As for Vinyl you don't have to discuss anything with her
  3497. >The way she works her turntables causes ponies to look on in awe
  3498. >Why would you risk fixing something that isn't broken?
  3499. >Your wagon jolts as it makes landing upon the outskirts of the Griffin Capitol
  3500. >You've arrived... now to get out and explore... after all you've got to get used to the griffins
  3501. >You move to get up but your legs feel like jello
  3502. >You collapse upon your tummy after making it a good two feet away from your couch
  3503. >Okay you can just introduce yourselves and go around the city tomorrow or something
  3504. >Sleep comes easy for you considering the gratuitous amounts of alcohol you consumed
  3505. >The next three days pass way too quickly for your liking
  3506. >Admittedly you weren't used to the piercing gazes griffins gave
  3507. >But you were able to maintain an air of calm and confidence all the same
  3508. >After all, their prideful attitude reminded you of you quite a bit...
  3509. >And now... here you are... backstage of yet another auditorium getting ready to perform for thousands of individuals
  3510. >There were times you still got nervous over this... but with Anon with you it was bearable
  3511. >As the crowd began to clap you take a deep breath
  3512. >You feel a hand be placed upon your withers
  3513. >You turn to find Anonymous staring down at you grinning
  3514. "You ready to make more fans?"
  3515. >His smile widens and he winks
  3516. >You smirk in response
  3517. >Trixie: "But of course. Trixie is always ready to astound her audience! You better keep up or you shall be out of a job!"
  3518. >He chuckles heartily before shaking his head
  3519. "Yeah you'll never change."
  3520. >You frown before glaring up at your assistant
  3521. >Trixie: "And just what do you mean by that?!"
  3522. >Before you can question him any further he silences you with a kiss
  3523. >As the curtains start to part he pulls away and backs away so not to reveal himself before his intro
  3524. "Knock em dead."
  3525. >You turn to face the crowd with a smile before trotting to the front of the stage
  3526. >The lights around you dim, fog begins to billow out from behind the curtains covering the stage floor in a blanket of white
  3527. >The griffins that have seen you perform in the past cheer
  3528. >Other simply watch on in silence, curious as to what you're going to do
  3529. >Unlike other performances today you're not going to start off with something showy
  3530. >You're going to build them up to it, hence why your intro is nothing special
  3531. >Surprising them with something none have ever witnessed before for a finale is the route your taking tonight
  3532. >Boy you can't wait to see the look on their faces after this...
  3533. >You hear Vinyl shout out to the audience
  3534. >Vinyl: "You griffins better stay seated cause if you don't this mare's gonna knock you on your flanks! It's my pleasure to present to you: The Great and Powerful Trixie!"
  3535.  
  3536. >End
