Spike's parents were dragons, or were they ponies? He must know. Twilight said it was in Canterlot Academy, the school she took. Spike and Twilight rushed to Canterlot. Discord got in the way of them.

"Spike, I'm sorry." said Discord.

"Sorry for what?" said Spike.

"THIS!" barked Discord.

Spike was turned into an apple, and Twilight was turned into a dragon.

"Why, Discord?" said Twilight.

"Well, I just thought that if Spike found out his destiny, he would become too powerful, and destroy Equestria! said Discord.

Spike said, "Why would I do that?"

"Because your destiny is---" replied Discord, until Princess Celestia stopped him from talking.

"Don't listen to him!" said Celestia until Discord turned her into a melon.

"As I was saying, Spike, your destiny is, ..it's......greed!" yelled Discord.

Spike heard the words and then turned back into his dragon form, and started blowing green fire all over Canterlot. Twilight turned back into a pony and ran to Ponyville to warn the ponies. She wondered if Spike actually believed Discord, because greed couldn't be his destiny. Right?

Spike's green fire grew stronger the more he destroyed. He grew as well, his arms and legs were long, he had sharp teeth, and his tail became much more curly.

Spike said, "I think this really is my destiny! I like destruction and I love gems! This is the LIFE!"

"Let's be friends." said Discord.

"Ok." replied Spike.

The destructive duo raged across Canterlot destroying everything and every pony in their way. The damage caused made Spike grow so big, he was bigger than the whole Canterlot castle! Meanwhile, Twilight told Rarity to go in there and use her generosity to defeat Spike's greed. Rarity accepted the challenge. She went up to Spike who was 10x taller than her by now and said,

"Spikey-wikey, would you pwease stowp?"

"ROOOOOOOOAAAR!" said Spike and wacked Rarity miles away using his humongous tail.

Twilight had to defeat her own creation.

She went up to Spike and said, "SPIKE, I CREATED YOU! I BROUGHT YOU TO LIFE WITH MAGIC! THOSE TWO SCIENTISTS WERE THE JUDGES OF MY EXAM! YOU'RE THE CLOSEST TO A SON I EVER HAD!"

Spike stopped. He felt like there was a piece of his heart, missing.

Discord said, "Spike! Back to work!"

"I..I..did this?" said Spike. "I don't want to be greedy! I want to..be..loved."

Spike shrunk down back to his previous size, and hugged Twilight and cried.

Discord said, "YES! My plan worked! Simulation OVER! That was an awesome fanfiction."

"F--fanfiction?, this seems real to me." said Spike.

"Well, I don't exactly know what a fanfiction is.." replied Discord. "Celesta was never a melon, those were props." "I used my magic to test your friendship!" said Discord.

"Why?" said Twilight Sparkle. "Because....Friendship IS MAGIC!" said Discord with a smile.

I love the ending.
