Ced was always trying to find new ways of keeping his body in shape. He had to in order to avoid falling into the same routine. While that had it's perks, Ced wanted to always be doing new things. He liked a sense of familiarity, then again there's a point where it falls into a boring case of "same old, same old." None the less, he had to stay in shape for his job.

Well, for Ced it was much more of a career. He had aspired to become a costumed performer since he was in grade school after taking part in a school play. As he grew up, so did his acting talent, taking on bigger and bigger roles until he became a very well known freelance costume performer for hire. He worked at theme parks for a few years as well as touring with a musical for a while, and a new tour with them was coming up and he was the lead.

It was an exciting time for Ced, but it required him to keep his body in peak physical and mental shape to prepare for the upcoming tour next month. He attempted various techniques and routines in order to maintain peak health. He started by simply trying out a few gyms but found himself growing bored of them quite fast, there was very little to do at them. Ced canceled the membership rather quickly and went on looking for better, funner options.

He turned to aquatics, to equally disappointing results. It was funner, he gave it that. He did always love swimming. Ced's apartment complex had a pool available to its tenants. He tried that for about a week before things transpired into just swimming back and fourth. It was not something he found himself enjoying as much as he thought he would. It was a shame but he decided to cut his loses.

After a few weeks of searching Ced finally found something he enjoyed doing every time he did it. He lived in a town that was surrounded by forests. He would jog through them, taking a new route each time. He'd use the environment to help with other exercises aside from cardio. Ced found the nature around him relaxing and very beautiful. Not to mention he'd see new creatures every time he'd go out to one.

There was one day that would change Ced's routine up more than he could of ever anticipated. He got ready as he normally did and decided to go to his personal favorite nearby forest. He did see a few familiar animal faces, which was an aspect he quite enjoyed. Some would even walk around with him. When doing it for so long you'd except things to fall into yet another routine.

And yet something new would seem to happen each time. Be it some kind of rare animal sighting, other joggers, and the like. Today was the biggest oddity yet. In short it was a simple wagon. However, there was much more to it. The colors were bright and it seemed much more cartoonish than one should ever be. The wood was a shade of brown that was almost yellow, with a bright red roof and platform. There was a purple sign with a moon, wand, and stars on it as well. It wasn't too large, yet not terribly small. It even had a window with two purple hearts on it.

Ced stopped and stood still just admiring it. First and foremost was because of the pure oddity of it all. It looked like it should be in a cartoon show, not in a real life forest. Secondly it did look rather nice. It had a rather quaint look, not too extravagant and yet not exactly minimalistic. A small part of Ced told him to just keep moving, it wasn't any of his business, but a much bigger part of him was telling him to find out more. Was this abandoned or was someone in there right now? How and why did it have the look that it did? Ced was always one for doing things he probably shouldn't do.

Despite knowing he should just move past it, the curiosity was just too strong. He took a deep breath and walked over to the wagon, knocking on the door. He waited for about a minute before trying again to no avail. If anyone lived there then nobody was home. He debated just turning around and going on with his day but the mystery of it all would eat away at Ced.

He reached for the knob, holding his hand there for a moment before taking a deep breath, turning it. As luck would have it the wagon us unlocked, maybe it was abandoned after all. The interior of it seemed to confirm that theory. The wagon was an absolute mess! Papers and clothes all over the place, left out food, and disorganized cabinets that couldn't even be closed.

Ced gave the inside of the wagon a disapproving look. He was about to turn and leave, however he had a thought. Perhaps he could gain some good karma if he picked up after the owner, make it look nice and tidy. Who knows, maybe the owner would pay it forward. Then again, there was a chance no one even lived here.

None the less Ced decided that a place that's nice on the outside should look nice on the inside. He rummaged through the messy cabinets until he pulled out a trash bag and started to throw away any trash that was lying around. This would prove to be the easiest task, only taking about a half hour. He tied it up and put it next to the door so it wasn't in the way.

Ced moved on to the cabinets, taking everything out before putting them back in a way that saved room by stacking, or at the very least make it possible to close the door. It was mostly bowls for whatever reason, that and a handful of various knick knacks. It seemed like some kind of showmen owned the wagon, at least at one point. Maybe he could come back when the owner was here and talk about both of their shows.

Ced moved onto the last step of the cleanup, the clothing. He didn't really know what to do with it, so he would just fold it into a pile. The only thing was the clothing wasn't really clothes, it was mostly rags and capes and the like. Perhaps this was some kind of home away from home? Ced didn't know why someone would keep a wagon unattained in the woods but he didn't prod into it.

It had been a few hours before he was completely done. He looked around the wagon and admired his handiwork, of which he had to admit looked quite nice. However during Ced's admiration, he noticed he has forgot a few articles. It was a light purple wizard's hat with blue and yellow stars adorning it. There was also a cape of the same color and patter, with a blue diamond connecting on the collar. He walked over and picked it up, admiring it. Ced thought that the wizard look might be good on him, and with this thought came changes.

Ced felt a massive pain strike his forehead, a very sharp, stabbing one. He brought a hand up to it and his eyes widened as some kind of protrusion coming out of it. It grew out a few inches, and from what Ced gathered from his touch, he had just grown a horn! Why was he growing a horn!? That doesn't just happen. As Ced searched for an answers the changes never ceased.

An itching sensation that had formed quickly and spread would be proof of that. He looked down at his arms and noticed that they had a light blue color all over. He used his hand, of which was also colored and felt his arms, confirming that it was in fact, fur. Was he turning into some kind of animal? Ced desperately tried to look around for any way to both stop the changes and reverse what had already been done.

However in Ced's frantic search he suddenly felt his body painfully give way, forcing him down on all fours. His skeleton had altered quite fast, transforming itself into a quadrupedal structure. He felt his fingers and toes slip away into nothingness, until they had both become bare hooves. He tried moving around on all fours, managing albeit barely. Ced's walking forever replaced with the "clip clopping" of a gallop.

When it seemed like the worst was over the changes kept on going. His hair turned cerulean color lighter than his fur as it formed into bangs that fell over his left eye, reaching the end of his neck. His face pushed outward into a small snout, his nostrils becoming mere slits. Ced's ears became longer and more floppy, moving with his emotions as they found their way to the top of his head. His eyebrows thinned out while his eyelashes elongated. His eyes turned a light purple color, matching the cape and hat he touched. Lastly, he felt the last trace of his former self between his legs leave, ending out the changes.

Ced look around in a panic, unsure of what to do. He trotted around in circles trying to think of something to get him, now her out of this situation. Her attention turned to the cape and hat she grabbed earlier. There was this odd feeling inside her, telling Ced to put them on. The question was how, she didn't hand hands anymore!

It seemed as if Ced' body went on auto-pilot as her horn began to emit a purple aura as the same aura formed around the cape and hat. The hat slowly levitated up to his head and sat on it. Suddenly, a wave of sensations rushed through his mind. New thoughts and emotions flowing through his mind. Slowly everything about Ced was fading away, to be replaced by the magic pony Trixie Lulamoon.

"Who put my cape on the floor?" Trixie asked out loud before using her magic to wrap it around her neck. "Hmph, at least it's not dirty." she commented to herself. "The wagon looks clean as always, those annoying kids making a mess, took me ages to clean." she shooked her head. "Time to get to work I guess." she said as she walked out of the wagon, ready to perform for the public. Outside of the wagon there were already a plethora of other ponies waiting for her to show off her skills.

"Hello all, I am the Great and Powerful Trixie!"
