The Incredible Drake: His Return

Spike stared wide eyed at Twilight as what she told him suddenly hits him like a runaway carriage. Somehow Rarity, the love of his life, had been kidnapped by somepony, or thing, and taken to Neighpan while he was busy fighting Sabretooth.

“S-Somepony… took her?” He asked in a serious tone.

“Yes. To Neighpan. They said that you needed to come to get her or else…” Twilight started.

“Or else what?” Spike asked.

“They’d… remove the child from within her.” She replied making Spike start to huff smoke.

“Twilight, get me a plane ticket. I’m heading to Neighpan.” He said angrily.

“Better make that two.” A raspy voice said. Spike turned around and saw, standing in front of the library with a cigar in his mouth, Wolverine and a bike parked right outside. “Hey bub.” The Diamond Dog said as he laid his cigar down on a book.

“WHAT THE BUCK ARE YOU DOING?! YOU GET THAT THING OFF THE BOOK OR SO HELP ME I WILL BLAST YOU ALL THE WAY TO CANTERLOT!!!!” Twilight shouted at Rover who just smiled at the yelling lavender Alicorn.

“Don’t worry, I’ll get you a replacement. Anyway, about those tickets-” He started.

“Why do you need one? Why do you need to go to Neighpan?” Rainbow Dash asked. Wolverine simply sighed.

“I heard rumors. Rumors of a pony that could remove the X-Gene from my system. I want him to make me normal.” He replied making the mares give him a weird look.

“Why would you want to be normal. Everypony is different in their own way.” Fluttershy said quietly.

“Because being a mutant has made my life Tartarus! I’ve been alive for over a hundred years! I want to live like a normal Diamond Dog!” He said angrily as his claws extended. As he said that, a sad look appeared on Twilight’s face.

“I-I’m sorry. I never-”

“Don’t. Finish. That. Sentence.” Rover growled. Spike, however, was thinking on what his friend just said. If it was true then this could be his one chance to really be cured of Drake once and for all. Yes he did some good with him but that was because the real Drake was locked up and now Devil Drake was on the loose in his mind as well.

“You said this pony can remove a gene Rover?” Spike asked him.

“Yup. Maybe even that big, green friend of yours as well.” He replied making Spike smile.

“Twilight, can you schedule us a flight to Neighpan?” He asked her.

“I can try. But no promises.” She replied.

“Alright. Rover, meet me by the airport as fast as you can. We’ve got a little job to do.” He said as he headed outside and started to run towards the airport.

Meanwhile, Rarity felt a massive pain surge through her body. Her eyes felt heavy as she tried to open them.

“Now, now, dear. Don’t struggle or the pain will get worse!” A high pitched voice rang out through the darkness. Rarity finally got her eyes opened a little and nearly shrieked at the sight. She saw a mare with pure white fur but she didn’t have a mane. She had, on her hands, three fingers each tipped with a claw. Her body was covered by a black suit with a strange blue outline that made her body appear to be covered in a hive and her eyes were bloodshot red. “Looks like somepony finally woke up! That will make things much harder than necessary. YOU THERE! ZAP HER AGAIN!”

“You can manipulate energy! You do it you freak of-” The pony who back talked the mare didn’t finish as the mare grabbed him and fried him on the spot.

“Anypony else care to argue with me?” The mare asked in a pleasant voice. “No? THEN ZAP THE NAG AGAIN!” She shrieked. Then suddenly, a surge of pure electricity shot through Rarity’s body making her scream in pain.

“Shocking isn’t it?” The mare asked before laughing as Rarity squirmed.

“WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ME?!” Rarity yelled. The mare simply walked over her chained body.

“Oh deary, it’s that big green friend of yours. His power is amazing. And I want it.” The mare replied with a little grin. “Where are my manners? I am Half Life.” The mare said as she giggled.

“Drake? You’re just using me as bait!” She said angrily.

“That’s right! And if he doesn’t arrive-” Half Life started as she moved one of her claws over Rarity’s uncovered stomach making it bleed a bit “That little being comes out.” Half Life said making Rarity gasped in a combination of shock and fear.

“YOU LEAVE MY BABY ALONE MONSTER!” Rarity yelled causing the deformed creature known as Half Life to just laugh at her.

“Oh you think I’m a monster now. Just wait until Drakey Poo gets here darling” Half Life finished in a perfect imitation of Rarity’s voice. Rarity gasped as blue electricity coursed all over Half Life’s body and suddenly Rarity was staring at a perfect replica of herself.

“Amazing isn’t it darling? I might not be a Changeling dear, but I have a little ability like one.” She said as she smiled.

“NO! I WON’T LET YOU DO THIS!” Rarity roared as she shook in her shackles making the clone of her laugh.

“Oh please, when Drakey Wakey comes, I will have more power than I ever imagined.” Half Life said as she gleefully skipped and laughed out of the room leaving Rarity to cry.

After many hours of sitting on a plane, Spike and Rover finally arrived at the great country of Neighpan. As the two came into the airport, Spike stretched as Rover looked around. They arrived not in a normal plane but via private jet Twilight gave them to use. The Diamond Dog was the first to leave the plane and inhale the scents of the area.

“Ah Neighpan. It’s been awhile since I’ve been here.” Rover said. Spike shot an him a questioning look. But he then turned his attention to finding who took Rarity. Following Rover, the two walked through the heavily crowded streets. Spike was amazed at what he saw along the way. Ponies selling items on the streets, Dragons walking around, it was almost a paradise. But then he heard a growl come from Rover. “Somepony is watching us bub.” The Diamond Dog said as his claws were slowly coming out. Spike looked all over the place and then saw in the distance a black clad pony who was giving him the stink eye.

“Rover, sick him.” Spike said with a little grin.

“WAY AHEAD OF YOU BUB!” He said back as he charged towards the stallion who started to run. Badly, Spike didn’t have Rover’s speed so he tried to keep up as fast as he could. He started to run until something caught his eye. A purple, curled tail.

R-Rarity? He thought as he ran towards the tail. He turned down the alley and soon caught up with the mare. “RARITY WAIT!” Spike yelled as he grabbed her and turned her around. And to his surprise, he saw the shimmering blue eyes of his wife.

“Spike! Oh my dear!” She said as she hugged him.

“Oh Rarity! I thought you were-”

“I escaped. But they’re after me. I saw a place we could hide at. Follow me quickly!” Rarity said as she started to run. Spike followed her without saying a word of asking where this place was. Shortly after a few minutes of running, the two made it to an abandoned building. Rarity opened the door and the two quickly went in. Spike closed the door behind him and then locked it.

“Rarity what-” Spike was interrupted by Rarity kissing him on the lips. She broke it off as she grabbed his hand and pulled him into a bedroom.

“Please Spikey Wikey I’m very tired right now. Can’t we just relax for a little bit?” She asked in a seductive tone.

“Alright. I guess we can. But before I do, I need to ask you something.” He said.

“Sure darling. What is it?” She asked.

“How’s the baby? Is it alright?” He asked.

“Sure it is. Finer than ever.” She replied. Spike sighed a breath of relief as he then laid down in the bed. Rarity walked over and laid on top of him as she embraced her lover.

“Ready for a little fun Spikey Wikey?” She asked in a sexy and seductive manner as she started to unbutton her shirt.

“I’m always up for fun. Especially with you.” He said as he pulled her pants down.

Meanwhile, Rarity was ashamed and sad. Not only was she captured, but she was being used as bait for her husband.

Oh Spikey. What have I done? She asked herself as she cried heavily. One of her captors saw this and stood in front of her cell. She couldn’t see his face because of the mask he wore.

“ねえ、まっすぐに。” The captor said in Neighpanese.

“なぜ？だから、再び私に衝撃を与えることができますか？” Rarity asked angrily.

“聞いていないと私はあなたに衝撃を与えることを余儀なくされます。” The captor said in an angry voice making Rarity jump a bit.

“I’m… sorry.” She said. But before her captor could say anything, a screaming was heard from outside.

“侵入者！フロントゲートで！” A guard screamed. The scream was silenced soon after. Rarity was about to scream for help when she felt a wet rag placed over mouth and soon had a foul aroma fill her nose as she soon passed out. Her captor then picked her up and carried her over to a parked car outside and placed Rarity in the trunk of it. He then saw two guards approach him.

“彼を見つける。私は彼が彼女を主張できるようにすることができません。” He ordered the two who just bowed before running. But shortly after they left, the pony was met with a paw to his jaw, knocking him out.

“Nighty night.” Rover said in a raspy voice. Before he left the area, he noticed the car trunk was fully opened. Opening it, he noticed an unconscious Rarity laying in the trunk. “Huh. Not bad Spike.” Rover said but before he could get Rarity out of the trunk he was soon met with a kick to his chest sending him into a wall.

“Well now big boy. We can’t have you getting the mare just yet.” A mare’s voice said. Rover opened his eyes and saw a beautiful mare in a skin tight green uniform.

“Viper. Nice to see you again.” Wolverine said as he climbed out of the wall.

“It’s nice to see you again Wolvy. So how’ve you been?” She asked.

“Pretty good until you came. Now, can we just get this over with?” He asked as he extended his claws. Viper merely smirked as Wolverine leaped towards her and she jumped into the air. The two leapt at each other until Viper grabbed Wolverine and pinned him to the ground.

“Now you wanted to be normal? Your wish is my command honey.” Viper said as she grinned. The mare kissed Rover and he felt…. strange. After a few moments Rover found he couldn’t move but he could only see Viper move to the car and closed the trunk. “See you around hon.” The villainess said as she started the car and left Wolverine on the ground.

“Why can’t I… wait. My claws. They’re… gone. She did it. The bitch did it.” He said in a combination of happiness and sadness. He was a normal Diamond Dog. But now he couldn’t save his friend.
