He had toured and traveled*\r\n> *to many places around the Kingdom, bedazzling audiences with his spectacular*\r\n> *magic and mysterious tricks. And by his side through it all, was his assistant: A*\r\n> *mare who went by the name of Showcase Spectacle. The two had been through*\r\n> *quite a lot on their tour, from their failures to their eventual successes. But after*\r\n> *one particularly enchanting performance, the two decided to celebrate with something*\r\n> *special, a night of passion. After that night however, and as time went on, Showcase*\r\n> *somehow had changed. She wasn't as energetic as she used to be, and it really showed*\r\n> *when her performances began to suffer. Ashamed, she mysteriously disappeared,*\r\n> *leaving behind only a letter and a single rose for Jack Pot to find, informing him that her*\r\n> *time as his assistant and lover was finished. Despite his desperate efforts to find her,*\r\n> *the heartbroken,and jaded magician was left with no choice but to carry on alone.*\r\n> *But many years later, during his biggest show ever, Jackpot was suddenly joined on-stage*\r\n> *by a mysterious mare. Their show was, unexpectedly, beyond magical. Why the only other*\r\n> *mare he knew who could perform in such a way was his lost love. But it wasn't until the*\r\n> *mare removed her hat and mask, that he was left aghast. She had heard many stories*\r\n> *about him from her mother, and decided to become a magician herself as a means to*\r\n> *become closer to him. She stared at him with tears in her eyes as the spotlight gleamed*\r\n> *above them both; Her heart beating rapidly. Would he accept her? Or not?*\r\n> \r\n> I've been doing a lot of things about parents lately haven't I? ![XD](https://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/x/xd.gif) \r\n> \r\n> I got inspired by the idea behind Trixie's parents, especially the idea of her\r\n> father being unaware of her existence, so I devised this short story.\r\n> I believe the producers said her mother's name would be Spectacle\r\n> or Showcase or something of the sort, so I combined the two together:\r\n> Showcase Spectacle. It has a nice ring to it. Sorry for the lack of uploads\r\n> these past couple weeks. I've been dealing with some things in RL,\r\n> but I'm back and feeling good. ![;) (Wink)](https://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/wink.gif)"
