Along the shore lines of Lake Lope, an azure mare had wondering about into the lake. She stopped to look at herself in the reflection, a frown upon her lips. She was none other then The Great and Powerful Trixie... Or at least she was.
Her hopes for fame and attention where ruined after the Ursa Minor incident in Ponyville. Trixie was trying to make a huge comeback plan so that everypony would phrase her as the most amazing unicorn in all of Equestria again. But, a sigh was forced out, what point would there be to return? Everypony now knew that she was a phony. A special thanks to that lavender pony, Twilight Sparkle.
She sighed once more as Trixie rested against the shore line, thinking of what to do now. Her wagon was destroyed and Manehattan was miles away. She had no where to go. She looked at her reflection again, glaring at it for being a total failure.
"Oh... If only" Trixie whispered to herself. "If only there was some way for Trixie to be on top again..."

Twilight was out walking around the lake. All of her friends were busy with something lately, and Twilight could handle only so much Rarity. Not that she was a bad pony to spend time with, its just that when Rarity is around drama ensues. She kicked a pebble into lake. How did she make it without being with friends back in Canterlot?
She saw another pony a ways to her right. They looked.... Dirty, to say the least. Whoever that is, they must be even worse off than Twilight is. She began to trot over to the mare. Maybe all she needed was a friend. Thats all Twi needed right about now.

Trixie's ears twitched as she could here hoof steps. Somepony was coming her way. She groaned. Now wasn't a really good time to be pitied for her failure. Trixie just wanted to be left alone. As a shadow now shrouded against her own, Trixie could tell by the horn that it was a unicorn. And when she looked behind her to see who it was, she gasps.
It was her!
She immediately got up from her position, narrowed her eyes and yelled out dramatically,
"YOU!"

Twilight took a step back, and her blood turned to ice. "YOU." She uttered in unison with Trixie. She looked at Trixie, a mess of her former self in both shock, and... What should have been anger was pity in her heart. She wasn't looking very great or powerful right about now. Quite the contrary, actually. Had she maybe learned a lesson from this yet...?
She tried to speak, but all that she uttered was "Trixie....." Her expression was stern, like she was about to tell the mare off about what she did, but her voice sounded weak and sympathetic. She could say little more than just that, and braced herself for alot of being yelled at.

"YOU are the one that made The Great and Powerful Trixie a laughing stock! YOU caused Trixie to lose many of her supporters! YOU... You... You" Suddenly, all of Trixie's anger and frustration vanished and she collapsed on the ground with a sigh.
"Oh... Even yelling at you won't help Trixie become a star again... What's the use..." Trixie said as she laid there silently before her rival.

Seeing Trixie like this was quite a shock. Twilight summoned her wits. "Trixie. You know that what you did was wrong. You nearly got Ponyville destroyed from your silly boasting!" Once more, her anger melted away. "Looks like you've already learned your lesson, though." She looked down at her.

Trixie looked up at the purple mare pitying her. A single tear fell from her eye as she tried to hold back sobs from her throat. "Yes... Trixie admits it was fun at first humiliating you little friends... But Trixie now understands that it doesn't make her anymore great and powerful when you’re hurting others... Trixie should have known better".
The azure unicorn slowly got up and brushed off a little of the dust that covered her once beautiful coat. She returned her teary glance back at Twilight.
"Trixie has a lot of catching up to do if she wants to get back to the top"

Twilight stood silent for a moment. Trixie was the last pony she wanted help, but this wasn't the old Trixie. She had a different tone about her, one that had seen humility first hoof. "You know..." She began, trying to choose her words carefully, "I could help you." She said, not sure what she was getting into. She might end up regretting this soon....
"I could show you some magic tricks, and more importantly, show to be a bit more friendly." She added. Maybe, just maybe, the magic of friendship could help Trixie be a better pony. Friendship was something Twilight had only just begun to understand, but she was confident its influence was strong enough to guide the once boastful mare to a better life.

Trixie just stared at Twilight after hearing this. SHE was offering to teach HER new magic tricks? Usually, Trixie would have said something prideful like 'The Great and Powerful Trixie doesn't need help from the likes of you' or something like that. But her pride was broken right now. Trixie could hardly believe how generous and kind Twilight was; after all she did to her.
"You... You really want to help me?" Trixie said, dropping her persona. "After I Humiliated you in front of everypony, treated your friends cruelly and near destroyed Ponyville, you’re willing to forgive me for what I've done?"
Trixie eyes were very watery and tears threatened to pour done her face.

Twilight nodded. She really hoped Trixie wouldn't cry. Its awful to see anypony like that. "Yes, but you have to promise you want to change. To be nicer. Now," She took a deep breath. "First things first. You need to clean up. You dont look too great...." She then somewhat reluctantly held out some bits.
"Go to the spa, get cleaned up, and meet me at the town library. Its carved into a large tree, cant miss it." This would be Trixie's first test. If she came back, then that would mean she really did want to change. Hopefully she would, because Twilight really did want to help her out.

Trixie nodded as she took the bits and, without hesitation, hugged Twilight. "Oh, thank you so much! No pony has ever done something this nice for me!" Trixie then went to go into the nearest spa to clean herself up. This could be the opening she needed to re-start her career. With Twilights help, and perhaps friendship, she could re-gain her supporters and re build her home. Maybe, just maybe, Trixie could finally start living a little bit more.

Twilight was about to leave, when Trixie embraced her. At first she wasn't sure what to think, but then she hugged back. It felt good to help, deep down. They parted, and she went to her home to make a few preparations. There was no doubt in her mind that Trixie had learned a valuable lesson, and would be on her way to a better future, and possibly even fame.
Hopefully she could just convince the rest of the town that.....
