Spikes big Rumble

Spikes big Rumble

     "Man big brother, school sucked today" Said Rumble wearily, dropping his books on the kitchen table and unburdening himself of his saddle bag. He let it drop to the floor with a thud.

"How come?" ThunderLane asked, turning his head towards his little brother.

"Well... I" He shifted nervously "got detention".

     ThunderLane was more than surprise to hear his usually peaceful little brother getting detention.

"Why?".

"Because some pricks we're bullying Spike for being  different!" Rumble exclaimed.

    ThunderLane's face grew a small smile. He already knew what was coming next. But asked anyway.

"And how does this affect you?".

Rumble puffed out his chest and replied.

"Well one thing led to another and Spike and me kicked their flank!" Rumble was practically drowning in self pride.

"Little brother, fighting never solves anything" Said ThunderLane with a raised eyebrow, but was hiding a smile underneath his parenting expression.

Rumble's pride vanished and he hung his head in shame.

"I know" he muttered.

    ThunderLane couldn't hold himself back anymore and he chuckled, bringing his brother into a hug.

"So how badly did they get whooped. Also I never thought of Spike being a fighter".

    Rumble was very confused, as he pulled away from the hug. He looked up to his brother, and asked.

"Your not mad?" He asked in almost disbelief.

ThunderLane shook his head "Not at all. You stood up for your friend even if it meant that you would get detention. Thats really loyal".

    Rumble was overjoyed by his brothers kind words. His happiness was instantly restored.

"Well first off me and Spike grabbed the nearest chair and...."

***

"A FIGHT!  how.. why.. I.. thats so unlike you Spike?!".

Spike was sitting in a chair inside Ponyvilles library being interrogated by his mother/sister figurehead, Twilight Sparkle.

     When Spike got home today from school (Of which he recently enrolled in), he had decided to tell Twilight about the fight and get it over with.  Twilight much like ThunderLane's reaction was surprise but quickly turned into curiosity.

"I mean... why?" She asked, calming down a bit.

     "Well..." Spike went on to tell her about the whole situation. From when Rumble came to his side, to when the teacher showed up and saw two knocked out colts on the ground, unconscious. And a dragon and colt standing over them.

Twilight listened carefully. Once Spike had finished the story she pulled him into a hug.

"I'm sorry those Colts called you names Spike, I knew enrolling you was a bad idea" A few tears fell.

Spike pulled away and looked her in the eyes.

     "Twilight its okay, most of the fillies and Colts are nice to me like AppleBloom and the other CMC's.  And now thanks to this I made a new friend. Rumble.  By the way he asked if I could come over tomorrow. Can I please!" Spike pleated on his knees.

Twilight giggled and kissed his forehead.

"Sure, anything for you spike".

He wraped his small arms around her neck as best he could and ran upstairs.

"Thanks Twilight!" he yelled.

She shook her head and smiled.

"He's going to be ok..." She said, going back to her books.

"Perfectly... ok."

***

"Hay Spike, thanks for coming over!" Exclaimed Rumble, opening the fence to the yard.

Spike walked through and brohoofed the colt.

"No problem, I had to come by and see my hero" said Spike with a smile.

Rumble blushed, which went unnoticed by the dragon.

"So.. what do you want to do first?".

"You invited me over, remember?" Said Spike, with a raised eyebrow. Still smiling.

Rumble's blush returned and he rubed the back of his head with a hoof.

"Oh.. yea. Well how about we play tag" Rumble suggested.

"Sounds good!, oh and one more thing" said Spike.

"Yea?".

"YOUR IT!" Spike poked him on the shoulder and ran off.

     Rumbles awkward blush vanished, and he quickly took off after the Dragon. The two of them laughed and played for hours, until the Sun started to come down and Spike had to go home.

They both agreed to hang out again soon...

Today was a good day....

***

"Twilight I'm home" Spike called out, closing the front door to the library behind him.

Twilight came rushing down the stairs almost tripping over books along the way. She picked up spike in her magic and sat him down on the couch.

"How did it go?  did you have fun?  are you two best friends now?  when do I get to meet him?  what games did you play?..."

Spike put a claw to her muzzle.

"Twilight you're acting like Pinkie Pie" He exclaimed with a chuckle.

Twilight sheepishly smiled and pinched his chubby cheeks.

"I just want to know how my little Spikys social life is doing".

Spike swatted her hooves away, laughing.

     "Everything went fine Twilight. We played tag for hours and talked. Hes a really cool colt, did you know that when he grows up he wants to be a Wonderbolt?!" Spike asked happly, with a yawn.

Twilight gave a smile that only a mother could give and put spike on her back.

"Thats great Spike, but I think it's about time for bed don't you agree".

He only nodded and in a matter of seconds he was asleep on Twilight's back.

She giggled and trotted upstairs to their bedroom, and put  spike to bed.

As long as Spikes happy, I'm happy, she thought....

ThunderLane pulled the bed sheet over rumbles body and turned off the lights.

"I hope you had fun today little bro" He said sincerely.

Rumble smiled up at his brother.

"I sure did!. Can Spike and me hang out again soon?"

ThunderLane chuckled at his brothers enthusiasm.

"Sure. Any thing for you little bro" He said, going over towards the door, and griped the handle.

"Goodnight brother" Said Rumble tiredly closing his eyes.

"Goodnight little brother" He said, closing the door.

I'm happy as long as you're happy, he thought....
