Long have the snake summons respected Dragons, whom they consider fellow reptiles...but also legendary beings of power....which is why they named their home Ryuchi cave....

Named their home after dragons.

These summons are powerful and crafty, scouting out potential allies and enemies.

However, during Winter Wrap Up, a snake scout in Equestria gets into life-threatening trouble, yet is saved by Spike.

A dragon.

Taken to Ryuchi cave, Spike is taught the art of chakra, becomes a Snake Summoner.....and....above all else....

Equestia's Serpent Sage.

This is a SpikexPinkiePiexRarityxFluttershyxApplejackxMoondancer fic.

To thank DARKPHANTOM13 (go check out his stories too! He's the founder of the SpikexPinkie group!), I'm including his favorite Naruto series ability-Shikotsumyaku, or "Dead Bone Pulse".

To connect with Fluttershy and Applejack, a nature lover and apple farmer respectively, Spike has the Mokuton-or "Wood Release", allowing him to grow and manipulate trees.
