Author's Note

Hey-hey, Pony fans. I know you all asked for it for a long time, and wondered when it would happen. It took awhile, but I finally have that sequel you've been wanting. Hope you enjoy it like you did the first one.

Return to Ponyville

My name is Spike, but then again you probably already knew that. But if you're new here I'll give you a recap. My name's Spike Drake, and I've spent the better part of my younger years being an all around casanova to the ladies. But out of all girls I've ever known only six of them shared a special bond with me was the Canterlot Cuties. You remember Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Fluttershy, right? Yeah ever since I moved to Canterlot city when I was a little kid, these six girls and I did everything together. And as we grew up we started getting closer and closer leading us to having our first time together after their Prom Night. After their graduation they left for college while I stayed behind to attend Canterlot High. I'll admit it's been lonely not having them around as much aside from holidays and breaks, but I'm truly grateful they were able to come back not only to attend my Prom night, but to also see me graduate.

I was sure with Summer beginning and graduation out of the way me and my girls would be living it up like party animals. That was the plan at least...

Sadly after graduation my parents and I were forced to move back to my old hometown Ponyville to look after my grandma who could no longer take care of herself. Since she refused to go to a retirement home mom and dad decided to move us back to live with her. I was against the idea, of course, but I had no choice. Grandma had no other relatives of ours close enough to take care of her, and personally she always favored my parents best.

So here I am eighteen years old, leaving behind my pals, my girls, and everything I loved about Canterlot City. Even if we're three hours away from the city, I still feel far away from my girls. But little did I know of the surprises waiting for me back in Ponyville.

Outside a house was a moving van, with movers bringing in boxes and furniture from the truck and into the house. Helping them was Spike and his parents. Spike no longer being the junior high student years ago was now a handsome young man. His choice in attire included blue sneakers, jean shorts, and a green short sleeved shirt covered by a purple short sleeved unbuttoned shirt.

Spike had just finished decorating his new room with all the stuff from his old bedroom. Such items included his old bed sheets, TV, laptop, comics, any his many Power Princess merchandise from manga, posters, magazines, DVDs, CDs, action figures, and models. Spike looked around his new room feeling very pleased, "Yes. This'll work," he picked up a picture frame of himself and the Canterlot Cuties during Spike's Prom night and put it on his dresser, "There you go, girls." he smiled at the picture before leaving his room.

Spike walked through the house seeing all the stuff from his old house had been set up throughout his grandmothers place making him feel like he was still home. He saw his parents had just finished setting the kitchen up with some of their own stuff.

His father Geki sighed in relief before taking a seat at the kitchen table, "Finally, we're finished."

"That wasn't so hard." Spike's mom Elsa answered.

"Right," Spike said, "Listen I'm gonna go look around town, ok? Be back around dinner time."

"Be careful, Spike," Elsa warned him, "We haven't been to Ponyville in years. We don't want you to get lost."

"Relax, mom. I'll be fine. I'm not the child you used to coddle years ago."

"The boy's right, Elsa," Geki agreed, "He can take care of himself fine."

"So let me worry a little bit," Elsa began, as she and Spike said in sync, "I'm his mother after all."

Elsa stared at her son who chuckled, before walking away. As he passed the living room he saw his Grandmother Tiamat or Tia sitting in her armchair while watching game shows. As Tia saw Spike pick up his skateboard, she spoke, "Going out, Spike?"

"Yes, Grandma. I'll be back later."

"You be careful out there now. There's lots of frisky girls looking to snatch them up some unexpected hunk." Tia winked at him.

"Ok, Grandma." Spike replied wanting her to stop.

"I mean back in my day, most of them boys I was friends with were always trying to..." Spike cut her off.

"All right, I don't need to hear that." he walked out the door before she could continue.

Spike got on his skateboard and boarded off into town. When he arrived he took in the scenery while recalling certain spots from what memory he had of the town as a kid. He went past a store titled 'Vincent's', and spoke, "Vincent's drug store. Where dad and I always grabbed a soda pop," he saw across the street was a candy shop, "Candy Sweet's Candy Bar. I always wanted to try a jawbreaker from there, but was too young for it. Not anymore."

Spike continued to skate around before he looked up seeing what used to be a movie theater with a message reading 'Out of Business'. Seeing this Spike called out, "Oh, come on. Not the Movieplex, you assholes! Where the people of this town gonna get any culture? Guess I'll have to find another theater close enough to keep track of up and coming features." he sighed.

As Spike skated around a corner he ended up bumping into someone knocking them both onto the sidewalk, "Oh, wipe out," Spike groaned before speaking to who collided with him, "Look, I'm sorry about that. I wasn't paying attention."

The one he ran into was a boy about his age with moderate rose colored eyes and short black hair. His attire included black sneakers, blue violet shorts, a lime green shirt, and on his head was an orange cap turned backwards, "I'm sorry too, man. I was too caught up in thinking and didn't see where I was going."

When the two looked at each other they gasped as if both of them had seen a ghost. Spike looked at the boy while remembering someone who looked like him as a kid, and thought, 'Oh my God.'

The boy looked at Spike while picturing a younger Spike in his place, 'Oh my God.' he thought as well.

Spike spoke up in a gasp, "Thorax?"

The boy named Thorax gasped in equal shock, "Spike?"

The two boys looked at each other for an awkward moment before letting out a cheer of laughter. They got up and embraced, "Thorax, my man!" Spike cheered.

"Spike-arama!" Thorax cheered, as the fist bumped.

"Oh, man. It's good to see you, old friend." Spike said with joy.

"Good to see you too." Thorax agreed.

"You've really grown from that kid I knew back then." Spike looked him over.

"You don't look so bad yourself," Thorax replied, "What're you doing here?"

"I've moved back."

"Really?"

"Uh-huh."

"Oh, this is great. We have so much catching up to do. I don't know where to start." Thorax wondered.

"Take it easy, Thor. Why don't we go someplace and grab a bite? Please tell me Crazy Burger's still around." Spike pleaded.

"Like they'd ever close it?" Thorax asked rhetorically.

"Well, it can't be said for the Movieplex." Spike noted.

"Alas, poor Movieplex. I knew it well." Thorax said dramatically.

"I see you haven't lost your touch for impressions." Spike smirked.

"Once a prop comic always a prop comic." Thorax joked, as the two headed off.

Later on the two young men were at a fast food joint called Crazy Burger, munching on some burgers and catching up on lost times. As Thorax took a bite out of his burger, he spoke to Spike, "Sounds like you were living the ideal fantasy life back in Canterlot city."

"I guess you could say that." Spike replied.

"Guess? You had girls going after you right from left, and you got laid with six of them at the same time."

"Twice," Spike corrected him, "Their Prom night and my Prom night."

"Dammit, you are lucky." Thorax cursed.

"Don't you have somebody on the go?" Spike asked.

"I'd wish." Thorax sighed.

"Hey, it's summer. Summer time's Loving Time." Spike declared.

"I'm just hoping I can lose my virginity before Summer ends." Thorax hoped.

"There's always hope." Spike said.

"Yeah. Though what happened to your grandma again that you had to move back here to take care of her?"

"She slipped in the shower and it took her over an hour to get up. Her doctor suggested she move into a home, but you know Grandma Tia thinks all retirement homes are just a front to hide the fact the homes are actually sweat shops."

"Oh, your grandma and her conspiracy theories." Thorax laughed.

"Grandpa Vali was just the same," Spike reminded him, "So any big plans for you in life?"

"Well, I'm hoping I can take my stand up comic act on tour one day. I just need my big break."

"With the way you do voices and impressions it's bound to happen." Spike assured him.

"Thanks, man. You always had my back. Even when you were the one who was just a big a softy as I was."

Spike gave him the stink eye, "Don't push it, Thorax." Thorax shut up, as they continued to enjoy their lunch.

Afterward, the two were taking a walk in Ponyville Park with Spike looking all around, "Oh, I remember this place. Every Summer as long as I could remember we ran all over this park like we owned it."

"Good times." Thorax remembered.

"Though has that playground always been that small?" Spike asked.

"No. We just got bigger." Thorax answered.

"Oh, yes. Everything always looked bigger to us when we were children."

Thorax looked ahead and stopped, "Hold up, Spike."

"Why, what's the problem?"

"Just want you to have a heads up. Because over there's another blast from the past." Thorax motioned up ahead.

Spike looked ahead of them and saw hanging out under a gazebo were six girls about the age of 21 going onto 22. The first girl had brilliant red eyes and moderate phthalo blue hair color done up in spikes. Her attire included dark blue sneakers, black jeans, and a blue tank top. The second girl had green eyes and her hair was long and colored with a mix of red and yellow. Her clothing included black boots, teal pants, an orange transparent skirt a bluish green shirt, and a black leather jacket. The third girl wore a dark purple turtle neck sweater and a purple skirt with a crescent moon symbol on it along with purple boots. She had bushy eyebrows, and wore big black glasses with the bridge of it taped together. Her eyes were dark purple, and her hair was colored in a mix of brilliant amaranth, moderate purple, and grayish violet. Her bangs were tied upward with beads.

The fourth girl had moderate persian blue eyes and her hair was colored moderate purple with lighter purple and pale light, grayish aquamarine highlights. Her clothing included black shoes, purple pants with a few tears in them, a pale light, grayish aquamarine colored shirt, a black open vest over it, and on her head was a purple beanie with star symbols. The fifth girl had light brilliant and pale yellow hair, and her eyes were colored moderate lime green. Her attire was composed of white slip on shoes, a white skirt, and a pink top with an exploding star symbol on it. Finally the sixth girl who looked a bit pale had dark blue hair that was slightly curled at the tips, and her eyes were colored brilliant amber. Her attire was a long black and white striped arm sleeved shirt, matching knee socks, a black dress worn over her shirt, and black shoes.

Much like when he saw Thorax, Spike looked at the girls as if a cat got his tongue. He blushed while looking at them seeing all six girls were really well endowed much like the Canterlot Cuties. But their impressive busts hadn't distracted Spike from what was really important as a flood of memories came back to him. He spoke to Thorax, "Thorax, is that really?"

"Oh, yeah." Thorax nodded in confirmation.

Spike looked at each of the girls while envisioning younger versions of them in their places. He thought to himself, 'Ember? Sunset Shimmer? Moondancer? Starlight Glimmer? Sunshine Smiles? Moonlight Raven?' he continued to gaze at the six beautiful ladies, while feeling smitten.
