Bleeding Heart sighed as Umbra sat on the floor while reading a book with a nonchalant expression. "Are we seriously not going to talk about this?"

"Talk about what, dear?"

"The fact you can't suck up your anger and just forgive him."

"Forgive who? That sack of shit liar?"

"Umbra! Spike, is our husband!"

"Not a very good one if he kept a big secret like that from us!"

"Oh? So now you care? You were ready to send him deep underground the minute I hugged him."

"That's because I love you Bleedy, I want to protect you, and who said I cared? I just stated he's doing bad at our relationship that he was forced into!"

"I use the term care because I didn't hear you deny him being our husband, which is surprising for you. After all, the very idea of being near a male like this is something you use to always hate, remember?"

"Of course I do, I hate guys, especially when they're near you, touching you...just like the day we fell in love!" she frowned slamming the book shut.

"Oh right, now that was a day." giggled Bleeding Heart.

"Don't laugh! That stallion had you..."

"In a hug? You mean this?" she walked over and wrapped her hooves around Umbra's neck.

Umbra didn't fight back. She just calmly hugged Bleeding back with a sigh. "Still nonchalant like before."

(Flashback)

We then flashback to a time when they were younger...when Bleeding Heart wasn't what she looks like...looking more like Cadence actually.

On the other hand Queen Umbra...

She was a little on the shy side with her mane covering her face. And it showed her with a regular black gown instead of her crown and cape.

"So Umbra honey, how're you enjoying the Crystal Fair?"

"It's wonderful Cadence...though I do wish stallions wouldn't stare at me..." She looked back at stallions staring at them and then buried her face in Cadence's chest.

"Oh don't be like that." smiled Cadence patting her back. "It just shows how cute you look."

"I-if you say so." She said, trying to perk-up.

Both young fillies walked around while trying to enjoy some of the games. As they enjoyed their date, that's when the most popular colt from their class tried to make his moves on Cadence.

"Hey cutie, why don't you and I go off and play?"

"Excuse me, but I'm here with my..."

"Ugh, fine, your friend can join us on 'our' date as well."

That's when Umbra's eyes burned with rage.

"I'm sorry, but this is really uncomfortable." frowned Cadence.

"Don't worry, that's the kind of effect I have on fillies, now how about a ki..." Then he was socked by Umbra. "Ow! What's wrong with you?"

"WE, are the ones on a date that you decided to interrupt!"

"Wha?" Then Umbra took Cadence and they kissed right in front of him. The colt was stunned and disgusted before walking off.

The fillies broke the kiss and hugged.

"Thanks for making that creep get lost."

"Of course, I'll always protect you because I love you!"

Cadence's eyes widened before Umbra covered her mouth with a blush.

Cadence and Umbra spent their days as lovers, Umbra was the guy of the relationship since she was tougher. Cadence allowed Umbra to fend off guys who try anything. Both of them were currently walking through the empire side by side.

"*Giggle* I had a really good time last night."

"*Giggle* Thank you Cadence, so how's babysitting that unicorn kid?"

"Twilight? 9 bits an hour is so worth it." smiled Cadence while nuzzling Umbra's cheek.

"Stop it Cadence..."

"I'll stop after..."

"Hey ladies." Called twin teenage colts.

"Oh, hello." greeted Cadence with a polite tone.

Umbra remained silent.

"So, you feel like going to our place tonight? For a really good time?"

"No." growled Umbra before Cadence could respond.

"Eh, okay. But that's your answer."

"Yeah, so pink cutie? Wanna get spitroasted?"

Then as quick as a flash, Umbra slammed both their heads together!

"Ow!"

"Since you 2 have such rock hard heads, why don't I try making a fire out of them?" she growled with her horn glowing. She then began forcefully rubbing their heads together, trying to make sparks.

"Ow! Ooh! Stop it!"

"NO CHANCE YOU CREEPS!"

Then after a good shaving, the colts broke loose and ran.

Umbra huffed while Cadence rubbed her back.

"My heroine." she smiled before kissing Umbra on the cheek.

"A cheek kiss? Nice try." Umbra then went in and pressed her lips against her's.

Cadence moaned and held Umbra close while some of the citizens looked away in disgust.

"What animals."

"They should've accepted the colts's offers."

"And they're suppose to be future rulers?"

"Unacceptable."

'Why are they so angry?' Thought Umbra.

'What's wrong with them? I thought love powered the Crystal Empire?"

Both frowned and just walked past them.

"Is what we're doing wrong?"

"I don't know, but in the meantime, no more kissing in public."

"I'll miss it, but in private is acceptable."

"That's what I like to hear."

It wouldn't be until a week later that things changed.

"Ooh, I'm so excited, today's the day we become the co-rulers of the Crystal Empire!" smiled Cadence bouncing on her spot.

"Me too Cadence!" beamed Umbra with a rare sincere smile reserved for the mare.

The 2 co-rulers thought about their next big plan.

"After our coronation, we gotta get married, there's no way they'll hate us for it, right?" Umbra said to Cadence.

"Yeah, and Twilight would make an absolutely perfect flower girl!"

Both smiled and hugged before going out of the castle.

They then saw Solar Flare making the grand announcement. "Citizens of the Crystal Empire, I am pleased to announce today is the day where your new princesses shall finally be crowned!"

"Here it comes..." They whispered.

"May I present to you, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, and Princess Umbra!"

They then made their appearance and bowed. Some ponies applauded while some just stayed silent.

"Why aren't you all excited?" Asked the twin rulers.

"I'm not gonna respect someone who goes around kissing mares!" called a stallion.

"Me neither, boooooo!"

"You're no ruler of mine!"

Soon more and more ponies were joining in.

"You don't deserve our loyalty!"

"You should've dated me when you had the chance!"

"You 2 are not welcome here!"

"ENOUGH!!!" Roared Solar Flare. "Nightmare Moon, assist me with this scolding."

"Yes sister."

After a full hour of yelling from the twin sisters...

Umbra growled before turning and running back inside.

"Umbra...wait..."

"Sorry about your subjects Cadence."

"It's fine auntie...I'm just worried about 'her'..."

"I'll figure something out." Solar Flare assured her. "I just hope she doesn't do anything brash."

"I'll be right back." Cadence turn and ran after Umbra.

Solar Flare then looked to the saddlebag that held something. "I'll figure something out..."

"Umbra! Where are you!" called Cadence inside the castle. She then heard her angry grunts and followed them to a room where dark magic was being generated.

"Those fools refuse to listen to us? Then I'll make them!" declared Umbra with her horn glowing.

"Umbra, what are you doing?"

"They'll never accept us!" she declared with a dark wind picking up in the building.

"Umbra! Stooooo..." Then a stray blast of the dark energy hit her. She curled up as she felt the effects quickly start seeping into her very being.

"Hahahah...good timing Cadence, look! We're gonna look like your aunt's!" boasted Umbra with a darker coat and mane with flaming mascara.

"Cadence? Who's this Cadence you speak of? I...am Bleeding Heart." spoke the alicorn standing up as she was revealed to be the dark alicorn.

"Hmmmm....now, why don't we reintroduce ourselves to them?"

'Hopefully, playing along this time...she'll finally calm down...' Bleeding Heart thought.

Umbra walked back out with Bleeding Heart following.

"So what now after we make them see our way?"

"We hold off on the wedding..." frowned Umbra as they walked out onto the balcony.

"Why hold off on it?"

"Because Bleedy...it's in bad taste right now."

'Bleedy?'

"I know, it's sad to wait but what can a pony do?" Soon she looked down at the loud crowd. "SILENCE!"

The citizens all looked at them.

"You all said you didn't want any nightmares ruling you, you say you don't want lesbians ruling you..." Said Umbra. "But guess what? YOU GOT BOTH!"

The citizens quake in fear of the monster they have created.

"And there's going to be a few changes." she smirked with sharp canines. "For example, anything & anyone anti-same sex shall endure harsh punishment and probably a sexuality change."

"You can't do that!" called out one of the stallions.

"We're the rulers and anything we says goes! Which reminds me, aren't you going against the new law?"

"That he is." grinned Bleeding Heart.

They then levitated him.

"What do you think? Change sexuality or not?"

"Why not do a sexuality change and a sex change?"

"Ooh, I like the way you think." Then they used their magic to transform the straight stallion into a lesbian mare.

"Anyone else want to fight back?"

The crowd shuddered in fear and were silent.

"Good, and remember...love is the only thing keeping us safe from the constant blizzards!"

"So if we stop loving each other, everyone freezes, got it?"

The citizens agreed.

"Good. Now off with you!"

(End flashback)

"Come-on Umbra, we're finally married! Wasn't he worth it?"

Umbra just turned away.

"Grrr..." That's when she blew a hole in the castle, exposing them to the citizens who took notice.

"Bleedy? What are you..."

"Citizens of Ponyville! Look at us closely!"

The citizens ere confused, but listened.

"1st of all, we're Spike's wives!"

"What? How did Spike bag such hotties?"

The citizens chattered for a bit.

"But with him being 'our' husband, that also makes us, each other's wife! Now watch as I, a mare, express my true love for this other mare." she grabbed Umbra's cheeks before pressing their lips together.

"Damn, that's getting me hard." Whispered a citizen.

"Wow, that's hot." whispered a Diamond Dog.

"This isn't wrong."

"Really puts me in the mood." whispered a mare to another one with a wink.

"Ooh."

All of the citizens had no complaints.

Bleeding pull away with a smirk. "So, what do you all think? Anything wrong with same sex couples?"

"No." They all replied flatly.

"What was with that answer?"

"We thought it'd be funny."

"..."

"Don't worry, we're okay with whatever sexuality anyone chooses." Said Mayor Mare.

"Now then Umbra, they are agreeing with us without the use of fear."

"Well..."

"Now Umbra, now that we've been accepted without force, what else must I do to have you follow me back to apologize to Spike?"

Umbra blushed and sighed. "I'll do it."

Bleeding Heart smiled. "Good, now let's go."

Umbra stood up and followed Bleeding Heart as they exited the castle.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the sky, we can hear angry grunts as a certain pegasus smashes cloud sculptures of Spike.

"That cocky little punk!" she growled while stamping on a few. She punched, kicked, karate chopped! "You son of a goddess!" She was about to make contact, but then...

"Hey there."

Lightning Dust quickly halted her attack! She turned and frowned at seeing Rainbow Dash flying there. "What do you want bitch?"

"Whoa! Language." spoke Rainbow with a frown. "Seriously, somepony comes here to help you out, and that's the first thing you call them?"

"My loyalty has been betrayed, I've lost the point!" she growled before she resumed breaking the clouds.

"I admit, it was not cool of Spike to do that, but he did what he had to."

"But....But he should have trusted us! If he saw our Spike's memories, he would have known we could have taken it!" She cried out.

Rainbow sighed before flying over and stood in front of Lightning. "Look, we can do this the easy way, or hard way."

Lightning Dust stared at Rainbow and as she stared back with such intensity. Then thunder cracked across the sky during their standoff. "Rainbow Dash, I don't want to discuss this anymore, he betrayed our loyalty and so did Solar Flare for not telling us either."

"So the hard way eh?"

"Leave me alone Rainbow Dash!"

"No, you're coming with me so Spike can say sorry!"

"Fuck his shitty ass apology!" Then she made the 1st move! She flew at Rainbow and tackled her through the cloud wall. Ash she pushed her through the clouds, Rainbow punched her back, trying to make her let go from unbearable pain.

"Get off!" She then clapped her hooves to Lightning's ears! She finally let go due to the painful ringing in her head. Rainbow took the moment to crack her neck before getting behind Lightning Dust and pulled her into a headlock.

"Let go!"

"Nah, I'm feeling like taking you for a ride!"

"What?"

Then Rainbow started flying really fast.

"What's going on?"

"Point blank Sonic Rainboom, that's what!" She started flapping her wings faster.

"Stop!"

"Give up first!"

"Never!"

"Fine, then I hope you said goodbye to your hearing."

"Ah! Okay, fine!" cried out Lightning with panic.

Rainbow stopped on a dime. "Now, we gonna talk this over now?"

"Fine..." relented Lightning as Rainbow lowered them down back on the cloud.

"Now, what would you do if you were in Spike's dilemma?"

"Well....I would have tried getting someone to listen and believe me."

"Right from the get go?"

"Well I'd take my time cause I don't know how they're suppose to react."

"I bet Spike was waiting for the right time." remarked Rainbow. "I mean, if he just came out and said the truth, what would you have done?"

"..."

"Tell me."

"I'd question if he hit his head, alright!"

"Do you see it from his perspective?"

Lightning looked down and rolled her hooves against the cloud while letting realization hit her. "I've been hard on the little guy haven't I?"

"Well yeah. I mean, I don't know what your Spike is like, but ours is still a kid, so he was just doing what he thought was right."

"You're right...and now just imagining him crying, makes me want to hug him..." she admitted with a light blush.

"Then let's go." spoke Rainbow with a smirk. "Sounds like you need to give your boyfriend a hug."

"B-b-b...." Stammered Lightning Dust. She saw Rainbow fly off and shook her head. "He's not my boyfriend!"

"Riiiiiiight..."

"Damn you Rainbow Dash!"

Meanwhile...

"Alright, think. If I was Sunset in this town, what would my house look like?" muttered Twilight to herself. She eventually found the library. "Duh, of course it would be mine." she smacked herself in her head before walking towards it.

She then saw that there was a closed sign on the door. She took it off with her magic and knocked on it. "Sunset, open up! I know you're there."

Silence...

"Come-on Sunset, lemme in, I just wanna talk."

More silence.

"Okay, guess I'm blasting down this door."

"What are you doing?" Asked a voice from behind.

Twilight turned around to see Sunset with a bag of groceries. "Oh, I was just....nevermind."

"So you wanna come in?"

"Yes, we need to talk."

Sunset used her key to unlock the door as they both walked inside. "Go sit on the couch, I'm not putting the groceries away, just getting a spoon."

Twilight sat on the couch as Sunset pulled out some ice cream. "Uh...broken heart much?"

"No kidding!" Then Sunset opened a tub, scooped up some ice cream and began chowing down. "I was lied to by my mentor and little brother!"

"Aww don't be sad Sunset, Spike's just as hurt for hurting the friends he made here."

"Oh sure." she rolled her eyes while eating more ice cream.

"I mean it Sunset." frowned Twilight. "Spike was just doing what he thought was the best way to handle this situation."

"I knew something was wrong when I saw him trying to open my diary." she admitted with a frown. "The real Spike I know would never do that."

"Hey, my Spike ended up somewhere new, he needed some info before exploring." retorted Twilight.

"But Twilight, Spike could have told us what was going on, Solar Flare could've told me the secret, I'm here NUMBER ONE STUDENT!!!" Then she pointed to all the academic trophies.

"Well you need to think of it like this. If you had to hide a secret that could affect everyone in a way, but you didn't know whether it was good or not, would you really feel like you could just come out without any hesitation?"

Sunset then stopped eating her ice cream.

"Besides, you should know that sometimes things need to be kept secret until the people are ready. If he suddenly disappeared and everyone knew about it, don't you think that might cause them to feel a little nervous and scared?"

She then turned her head to Twilight. She looked ready to say something before dropping the ice cream and spoon and started tearing up.

Twilight saw and quickly hugged her.

"Twilight...have you ever been betrayed by both your brother and mentor?"

"Yes, it felt like the worst pain in the world, even my friends abandoned me when I tried to prove something was wrong with my old foal sitter." she replied while rubbing her back. "But I found myself forgiving them because they didn't see what I saw and were caught up in the moment."

"Twilight, before I apologize to Spike..." She then levitated a trophy in Twilight's face. "...here..."

"Huh? What's this for?"

"For best psychiatrist."

"Oh! I'm not really an expert in that." smiled Twilight bashfully.

"Keep it...as a sign of our friendship." smiled Sunset.

They then hugged.

"Now let's go, Spike needs us....how are you gathering the others?"

"My friends are out trying to talk to them and we might meet back up at the castle."

"Ah, so..."

"Fine, we'll finish the ice cream then go."

"Yes!"

Meanwhile...

Rarity was trying to spot Fleur around the citizens, but didn't see the model anywhere. "Fleur? Darling? Where are you?"

Then as she exited the crowd, she saw that Fleur walked by a girl scout cookie stand for charity. 'Oh, there she is.'

'Why my love? How could you?' She thought. She sniffled while walking towards a rather elegant building.

"Ooh, that definitely looks like this world's Carousel Boutique." remarked Rarity walking over to it.

As Fleur unlocked the door, she heard hoofsteps. "If you're going to ask me to come back with you...sorry, the answer is no." she spoke without turning towards Rarity.

"May I come in and at least make the attempt?"

"No."

"Some Element of Generosity you turned out to be." frowned Rarity. "Would you rather stay mad for the rest of your life?"

"..."

"You'll get stress warts on that perfect face of yours."

Fleur frowned before opening the door. "Fine, I'll hear you out."

"Wonderful, I'll make us some tea." smiled Rarity walking inside and took a moment to look at how much bigger the building was compared to her own shop.

"The kitchen is on the 2nd floor to the right."

"Thank you."

Later, they sat across from each other as they sipped tea.

"Now, what are you going to say?"

"Fleur darling, you just left Spikey-Wikey, since you're supposed to be me in this world, I hoped you would at least stay."

Fleur took a sip of the tea and sighed. "It's not that easy."

"What is?"

"Rarity, do you know how me and Spike met?"

"Sounds like it'll be an intriguing story."

(Flashback)

We see Fleur incognito, avoiding the fans to find a new home. She was browsing through the small town looking for the right house/studio.

"Excuse me, what are you doing?"

'Oh no, another fan!'

Spike walked up to her, he wore a nonchalant face. "Are you looking for a new place?"

"Why yes...though I can't seem to find one that suits me, do you know any other vacancies for me to try?" She asked.

"Yeah, it's a block down that way." He pointed down the road.

"Thank you." Then she began walking.

"Oh by the way, are you Fleur? That famous model from Canterlot?" he spoke up.

She froze up. "Um....no."

"You sure? You're as pretty as her, and I'm actually worried what would happen if you crossed the wrong guy in this town."

"I assure you, I'm just a simple mare." she replied while keeping her face hidden behind her coat.

"Okay Fleur de Lis, I'll leave you alone." he turned and walked off. 'And now I am worried he'll blab to everyone.'

She eventually found the vacant building that Spike told her about. It seemed relatively new and in her price range. 'Hmm...he definitely wasn't lying, I need to thank him the next time I see him.'

After some time for filling out the papers, she got the movers to come down and get her stuff inside. She finally got everything settled in and was now relaxing in her couch with some iced tea. That's when a knocking came to her front door.

'Better get my good look on if it's a fan.' she thought walking over to it.

Upon opening it, Solar Flare and Spike had a cake.

"Princess Solar Flare?" spoke Fleur with wide eyes before bowing.

"Good day Fleur, me and my son here just want to welcome you to Ponyville...I really need to change that name considering the diverse number of non-pony groups living here."

"Your son?" She then looked down.

"Hey." waved Spike with a calm expression.

"Hope you don't mind."

"Oh! Not at all. Please, come right in." she stepped aside.

"Thank you."

Spike followed.

"Would you two care for some tea?"

"Tea sounds lovely, where shall we put the cake?"

"Oh, just anywhere is fine."

"Ooh, this table in the balcony seems just swell." Solar Flare used her magic to set the treat down.

All three chatted while sipping tea and eating cake.

"So, care to tell me how you find the town?" asked Solar Flare.

"This town is delightful, no fans are trying to ambush me and fans who recognize me are very sweet."

"That's good considering Spike didn't seem antsy or jumpy when he told me a model was moving here."

She then looked at Spike. "He did seem not to fanboy over me when he saw me."

"I just treat anyone here the same, plus you didn't flaunt around like some of them." he shrugged.

"Well, aren't you a sweetheart."

"He certainly is." smiled Solar while Spike looked away with a blush.

"Oh stop it mom." he spoke while trying to get his blush to calm down.

"What's wrong? Can't take a compliment you adorable little thing?" teased Solar while rubbing his head.

It was a very fun day. But it would be a week later that Fleur and Spike really hit it off.

Fleur found a letter in her mailbox. It didn't have an address on it, but it did have a simple seal. She read the letter, thankfully for her, Spike wanted to have a picnic in private.

"Sounds nice."

So she grabbed a sunhat, scarf, and sunglasses then was off to meet Spike at the castle. All the while making sure she didn't stand out to get any attention.

Later at the castle, she was about to go in but then...

"Hello." A voice greeted.

She turned to see the other 5 element bearers. "Oh, hello." she greeted cautiously.

"Are you the 6th chosen one?"

"Um, what?"

"Oh, you weren't called to gain an element of harmony?" Asked Sunset.

"Maybe she's one of the concubines Spike will refuse inevitably." Gilda said.

"C-Concubines!?" she spoke with a blush.

"Don't worry, Spike just turns 'em all down." Cherry reassured.

"Obviously looking for a real mare." Lightning Dust said.

"Careful, Cherry might get jealous." spoke Gilda with said mare sending her a glare.

"In any case, what brings you here?" Trixie asked.

"I was told me and him were having a picnic in private."

"In private you say?" Sunset questioned.

"He sent me an invite."

"Let's see it first." spoke up Lightning.

She presented the letter.

"Seems legit." Lightning concluded.

The six females entered the castle with Fleur confused. "So why are you 5 here?"

"We were invited."

"What?" 'Is Spike a player?'

"Hey girls." greeted the dragon walking into the room. All but Fleur began smiling.

"Spike, I thought you said this was a private picnic?"

"......"

"Are you some kind of player?" she asked with a frown.

"I never said it was just the 2 of us...I wanted to introduce you to all my friends...because you're my friend."

The other 5 didn't show it, but did have the eyes of those who'd rather have the title girlfriend instead of friend.

"Then why didn't you just say there would be more people?" She didn't know it, but she felt pretty jealous.

"They were the surprise, if only you girls have shown up sooner."

"We were running late." spoke Gilda like it was obvious.

Spike sighed. "Anyways, I know a nice quiet spot so that no-one will bother us." he turned and started walking with the girls following.

All seven of them reached a dark room.

"Alright girls, this is the place where our picnic will happen."

"But it's pitch black." spoke Trixie.

"Also I thought when you said picnic, it'd be outside." Gilda added.

Spike clapped his claws as the lights turned on. Then the girls stared in awe of the room they were in. Fleur was the first to speak.

"What is this place? It doesn't look like we're in the castle anymore." The room looked like a dark cavern with torches with a chest in the middle of a pedestal.

"Since I'm a dragon, Solar Flare gave me this place to store my treasure. Since I don't really need that much now, I decided to call all of my friends and have a picnic here. Doesn't it look beautiful?"

"Yeah, but isn't it rude to call your mom by her real name?" asked Cherry.

"She lets me...I dunno why though." he shrugged.

"Enough with the chatter, where's the grub?" Gilda asked. "I wanna sit riiiight next to you Spike."

"And why are you so eager to do that?" asked Cherry with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah, maybe I wanna sit next to Spike." Said Trixie.

"Easy there." smiled the dragon before he pulled out a picnic blanket and basket from behind a door. "Right now we're here to just eat and relax."

"Spike's right, let's not fight and enjoy ourselves, we deserve it after such a tiring week." Said Sunset.

The girls nodded and helped set up the blanket before Spike started setting the food out. As a shock to them all, Spike prepared all of their favorite food.

"A triple hay burger and fries." grinned Lightning.

"A Sunflower Seed Sandwich." Sunset Smiled.

"With jalapenos." Spike added.

"A whipped cream tart." drooled Trixie.

"Whoa, cream puffs with neapolitan filling." Beamed Gilda.

"Mmm, french toast glazed in syrup and topped off with watermelon juices." smiled Cherry.

"And for Fleur..." he set the plate down in front of her.

"Baked Oats with dried grass bits and lightly salted?" she turned to him. "How did you know?

"I know, we've only known each other for a week, but I wanted to make this special. So...I did a little research."

"Just how much?"

"I ran into one of your creepy fans, he told me what you liked and I had him arrested for stalking you."

Fleur frowned hearing about the stalking part, but happy he put the creep away. "Thank you Spike, it looks perfect."

"Dig right in girls."

They all chowed down, smiling big.

"Mmmm...I love your cooking Spike." Said Cherry.

"I love it more." Said Trixie.

"I'm so lucky to eat the food you make everyday." Said Sunset, one upping everyone.

"Thanks girls." he smiled while turning to Fleur. "What do you think?"

"I'm speechless, it's perfect in every way." she replied while eating her food without worrying about looking fancy.

Spike smiled as she ate her food. Spike then took out some food for himself and ate it.

Fleur then took notice. "Spaghetti Green Emeralds and sprinkled with crushed Topaz?"

"Yeah, I may have expensive tastes, but my mom's the ruler of Equestria, so whatever." he shrugged before he resumed eating.

"I can see why all these girls like your cooking." Said Fleur.

"Well it's more than just cooking that he's a great friend." spoke up Sunset.

"Someone to rely on." Vouched Cherry.

"Someone who understands." spoke Gilda.

"A very cool guy." Added Lightning Dust.

"All around best person." Trixie finished.

"Aw shucks." smiled Spike looking away with a blush.

"Is that true?" They all nodded. 'Wow, and he's still so young.'

Spike then finished his food. "Alright girls, I also have a big gift for each of you."

"There's more to this picnic?" Fleur said, surprised.

He nodded before walking over to the chest and opened it. Inside were 6 wrapped presents. He grabbed them and started handing one to each girl. "Enjoy."

Each one started opening them.

"A necklace with my cutie mark?" Trixie asked.

"I got one with a feather." spoke up Gilda.

"A crown? Ooh, does this mean I'm your favorite?" Asked Sunset.

"That there is the main one out of them all. These are the elements of harmony."

They all dropped thier jaws.

"I knew Fleur was the 6th one." Gilda boasted.

"B-But why?" she looked at Spike.

"Because Fleur, I've seen how you were able to generously give your time to true fans, how you gave away a portion of riches to charity, why yesterday, you helped guide that homeless mare and her children to the soup kitchen and served them yourself. You belong in this group."

She blushed and looked at the necklace while the other girls nodded.

They all then put on their elements.

"So how do we use these?" asked Cherry.

"Whenever a powerful threat comes to Equestria, these shall be the ultimate solution to dealing with it." he replied. "Just feel the emotions come forth and you'll know."

"Spike, making all of us food and then telling us we're the chosen ones, what's next?" A smiling Fleur asked.

"Easy there. Don't wanna spoil you too much." he joked.

Fleur giggled. 'I admit, I'm having fun." She told him.

(End flashback)

"Now you know I developed feelings for him."

Rarity blinked. "Um, I never really said you had feelings for him."

Then Fleur face hoofed. "Damn, I revealed my secret by accident!" she looked at Rarity and tried to remain cool. "I mean, that was a test. I was merely joking about that."

Rarity looked at Fleur unamused. That's when she noticed a small picture of Spike with other things on the other side of the room. "It was a test was it?"

"Yes."

"Then what is that?" She then pointed to the room in question.

Fleur looked and her eyes widened before she ran over and covered it. "It's nothing!"

Rarity then got out of her seat and started walking to the room.

"It's nothing! Really!" Fleur blocked her way but not for long as Rarity wrapped her in the curtains.

She walked over closer and saw it was a small shrine. "A picture of his cute smile? A diary about your interactions? You even keep a bag of his scales?"

Fleur blushed while looking away in the curtains.

"Well...this is a bit...what's the word I'm looking for...unsettling. Fleur, why is all of this here?"

"Because I'm in love with Spike, he became my new hobby!"

"Why do you feel the need to hide your feelings? You are the most beautiful mare out of all of your friends."

She sighed and untied herself. "With Spike, it wasn't a matter on looks, but personality. And to be honest, I was tempted to ask him out before your Spike came, but now? Now our Spike might end up lost forever."

"It breaks my heart as well, but we need to be there for him."

"And how will that work? We both want our Spikes to win and stay, meaning one of them will...."

"One of them shall perish, I...I can't see a happy outlook for either of us, whomever wins, one if us loses someone important." she admitted with a sad expression.

Then Rarity held her. "If you don't apologize to our Spike, it'll be as if you never apologized to your Spike."

"What has our Spike done?"

"Our Spike's are currently one Spike. If our's dies, you'll never have closer...do you really truly wish that?"

Fleur looked away and shook her head.

"Now come, he needs us."

Rarity turned and walked out of the room. Fleur followed alongside her.

We now see Spike, who's finally calmed down after some love from Solar Flare and Nightmare Moon. "T-Thanks mom, aunty." he sniffled rubbing his eyes.

"Your welcome son, now...'anything' else you want?"

"I'm fine for now, thanks."

Then the doors opened.

"We're back." spoke Twilight.

"Hey gang, we're back." Said Bleeding Heart.

The throne room flooded with mares all there for Spike.

"Um, Spike?" spoke up Sunset.

"Y-yeah?"

Sunset walked over and hugged the dragon. "I'm sorry."

"Me too." spoke up Lightning.

"I think I speak for the rest when we say...we're sorry." Said Cherry, with the rest nodding.

"I'm also sorry." spoke up Umbra.

"What for?" Spike asked.

"I...got rather upset hearing you were an imposter. Granted I don't who the other Spike was because we met you first, but I've had a quick temper for years. So I'll try to control myself, especially if me and Bleeding are going to be your wives."

"What?!" Everyone gasped.

"Wives?!" spoke Cherry with wide eyes.

"Yes, earlier today, Spike signed a marriage registration." spoke up Solar Flare.

"Damn, you just lost your boyfriend to 2 powerful rulers." Rainbow Dash whispered.

The six girls blushed without noticing the others while frowning at the news.

(With Discord)

"Okay my uglies, let's kill every last one of them!"

"But Discord, we are only 7, and there are so many in that village." Twilight pointed out.

He frowned and grabbed her with his tail. "Are you questioning my decision?"

"N-no...it's just that..."

"What I say goes, such as if I had a sudden urge to mate with one of you, you'll do it, or if I want one of you to entertain me, you do it, or if I ask for a meat shield, you'll do it! Do I make myself clear?" he growled while looking at the others.

"Yes master."

"Alrighty then...let's go cause some chaos." He declared.
