Twilight woke up the next morning to a very foul smell once again. She groaned, her eyes still closed, and placed her hoof over her muzzle. She reached down to poke her diaper, but it was just wet. In fact, the foul stench didn't even smell like a dirty diaper to her. It smelled like something far more worse than that.

"Ugh... what is that nasty smell...?" she mumbled to herself, "...that can't be a poopy diaper..." She sniffed again, fighting back a gag. She rolled over, her muzzle bumping against something fleshy and scaly, the smell becoming stronger as she did. It was at that moment that the smell became familiar, as she had smelled it so many times. And the scaly feeling was familiar as well. After putting two and two together, she finally realized what the smell was.

"Of course... the bad smell... the scaly feeling..." she mumbled, "...that definitely has to be..." She opened her eyes, seeing a pair of purple dragon feet in her face. She squealed and rolled away from them.

"...Spike's stinky feet!" she squealed. She sat up and sure enough, sitting on the rug, was Spike, her purple dragon assistant. He was wearing a green onesie, with a multicolored gem pattern on it, and the puffiness around his crotch and bottom, giving away his padding. And sure enough, his rancid-smelling feet were pointed at her face, which had woken her up. Twilight caught on as to why he was there, and why he was wearing what he was.

"Spike? Celestia chose you next?" she asked him. The baby dragon giggled loudly.

"I'm a baby!" he squealed, "I'm a baby dragon!"

"Yeah, I know," Twilight said, "But did Celestia choose you to play with me?" Spike's face scrunched up as he began to grunt, giving a loud fart as he began to mess himself, a bulge forming in the back of his onesie, He giggled again.

"Me make poopy!" he squealed. Twilight raised her eyebrow, a bit frustrated that Spike wouldn't answer her. Luckily, Celestia flew in through the window, having finished raising the sun. She saw Twilight awake and smiled.

"Good morning, my sweet filly," she said, hugging her. Twilight giggled a little and hugged her back. No matter how old she was, she always loved hugging Celestia, as she found her very cuddly.

"Good morning, Mommy," she said. Celestia then looked at Spike.

"I see you've met your playmate for today," she said.

"Yeah," Twilight said, "So you decided to go with Spike?"

"Yes," Celestia said, "I know how much you love playing with your favorite assistant." Twilight giggled again.

"Mm-hmm," Twilight said, "He could play with me for ages." Celestia's smile dropped a bit.

"Well... that's actually why I chose him next," she said.

"What do you mean?" Twilight asked, looking at her pretend mother.

"See, when I talked to Spike to ask him, I asked Spike over tea to hopefully improve my chances," Celestia said, "However, he was a little more willing to accept this offer than I thought. The thought of getting to play with you was enough for him, because he was a tiny bit desperate for it."

"Desperate?" Twilight asked. Celestia nodded.

"Yes," she continued, "He told me that ever since I appointed you to Royalty, you've been busier and busier, and he doesn't get to play with you as he used to when you were a filly. The only times he gets to spend time around you is whenever you ask him to take a letter or have him help you with your booksortcations. Basically, he feels that he is no longer the baby dragon you hatched from his egg, and feels more like a Princess' servant." Twilight looked down in so much guilt and sadness. She knew Spike always asked her to play with her over and over, and she always told him "Maybe later" or "Maybe next time," but she never knew he felt so bad about it.

"Oh... oh my..." she said, "He... he said all of that...?"

"I'm afraid so, honey," Celestia said, "He really misses when you used to be more available." Twilight felt a tear come to her eye. Whenever Spike was upset, she could feel it as well.

"B-but... if... if he felt so bad... why didn't he tell me...?" she asked, her voice breaking, "...I... I would've listened to him... I'm always considerate to his feelings..."

"Well, that's what I asked him," Celestia finished up, "He explained that he felt you wouldn't listen, and that your Royal duties wouldn't let you listen. He figured that it would be telling his feelings to a brick wall, not his best friend." Twilight began to weep lightly into her hooves, feeling bad for Spike. Celestia pat her back lightly.

"I know it feels terrible, but these are his words, I assure you," she said. Twilight sniffled and hugged her diapered friend, who had been sucking his claw in boredom. She hugged him tight, ignoring the strong stench coming from his full diaper.

"I'm very sorry, Spike!" she apologized, kissing his cheek, "I'm very sorry!" Spike giggled and hugged her back.

"Twily cuddly..." he said, licking her cheek. Celestia smiled.

"Isn't that precious?" she said, patting them both on their heads. Twilight looked at Spike.

"I promise that all my attention will go to you today," she said.

"Yay!" Spike squealed as Twilight let go of him.

"But I do wonder," she said, "If he accepted your offer, then why did you regress him? I thought if they accepted, then they don't have to be regressed, like Pinkie, Applejack, and Fluttershy." Celestia smiled again.

"Well, I regressed him for you, actually," she said, "I figured you would have a better experience with Spike if he were the baby dragon you hatched years ago, so I took it upon myself to regress him for you." Twilight smiled. "Of course, if you prefer me to restore his mind to normal, I can." Twilight looked at Spike again, who was poking at his messy diaper in interest.

"No, it's fine, Mommy..." she said, "...he's perfect the way he is..." She hugged him again, making him giggle.

"Spike like huggies!" he squealed. Twilight then caught the stench of his messy diaper once again.

"Uh, Mommy?" Twilight said, "Spike's got a poo-poo diaper." Celestia poked Twilight's diaper, making her squeal a little.

"And you're a wet filly, aren't you?" she asked. Twilight giggled and nodded. Celestia picked her up with her magic and laid her on the changing table, changing her wet diaper. After getting a new diaper, Twilight hopped off the changing table.

"Thank you, Mommy," she said.

"You're welcome, Twily," Celestia said, "Now, go wash up, and meet me downstairs for breakfast." Celestia began to walk off, when Twilight saw that Spike was still in a dirty diaper.

"Mommy, what about Spike?" she asked, "He still needs a change, too."

"Well, I think you should have the honor of changing him," she said, "He is your baby dragon, is he not?" Twilight smiled and picked Spike up.

"Yes... he is..." she said, laying him on the changing table. Celestia smiled and walked downstairs, while Twilight changed Spike's diaper.

"You're one stinky dragon, Spike," he cooed at him, "You're just as stinky as you were when you were little." Spike giggled as Twilight wiped him clean. "But I couldn't care less. All I care about is giving you the time you want back." Spike squealed in joy.

"Me like Twily!" Spike said. Twilight smiled again.

"I like you too, Spike," she said. She leaned down to kiss him, but before she could, a yellow stream of liquid came from Spike's crotch and met her face. She squealed and quickly covered Spike's crotch with a baby wipe.

"Spike!" she whined, "You just peed on me!" Spike laughed hard.

"Me go pee-pee on Twily!" he squealed, kicking his feet in the air. Twilight rolled her eyes and put a new diaper on Spike.

"You think that's funny, don't you?" she asked. Spike nodded fast. "Yeah, I'm sure you do. Now I'm gonna go wash my hooves, and my face, before we go get breakfast."

Twilight walked into the bathroom and washed the urine off her face and washed her hooves. After that, she walked back into the bedroom, grabbed Spike and Smarty Pants, and walked downstairs, sitting in one of the chairs and sitting Spike in the highchair next to her. The chefs brought everyone a stack of pancakes and eggs. Blueberry pancakes for Celestia, banana ones for Twilight, and pancakes with multicolored gems for Spike. Twilight's stomach growled as she licked her lips, very satisfied with her breakfast.

"This looks so delicious!" she said, complimenting one of the chefs, who smiled at her. Spike squealed in joy, reaching for his pancakes. Twilight giggled and used her magic to slide his plate over to her.

"Calm down, Spike," she said, "I have to cut them first." He giggled again and nodded. Twilight cut Spike's pancakes into little pieces and tired a napkin around his neck, simulating a bib as Spike hummed a small tune to himself, kicking his feet as they hung out of the highchair. Twilight smiled as she watched him, as he did the same thing when he was littler. Anyway, Twilight finished cutting the pancakes and drizzled a bit of syrup on them.

"Spike~!" she cooed at him, getting a piece onto his fork and flying it around, "The dragon's trying to find his cave! But, he can't find it! Do you know where his cave is?" Spike giggled and squealed, pointing at his mouth and sticking his tongue out. Twilight giggled and aimed the fork at his mouth. "Here it is!" Spike took the fork into his mouth, sucking on it a little as Twilight pulled it out. Spike squealed in joy again as the taste was wonderful to him, Twilight giggling.

"I know, it's yummy, isn't it?" she asked him.

"Yummy pancakes!" Spike squealed, "Really yummy pancakes!" He pointed at his mouth again, wanting a second bite. Twilight giggled again and fed Spike another bite of his pancakes, feeding herself as well. Celestia smiled, watching Twilight feed the baby dragon.

"Very familiar memories have been brought back, have they not?" she asked. Twilight smiled, feeding Spike his final bite.

"Yes, they have..." Twilight said, watching Spike suck his thumb, "I never thought I'd get to take care of the baby dragon I hatched again..." She nuzzled him, making him giggle.

"Twily love me!" he said, hugging her neck, "Me love Twily!" Twilight smiled again and pulled him out of the highchair, cuddling him in her hooves.

"Of course I love you, Spike..." she said.

"Aww..." Celestia said, a small blush appearing on her face, "It has been so long since I've seen this sight..." Twilight giggled at her as Celestia finished her pancakes as well.

"Anyway," Celestia said, "It would be so nice for you to enjoy a special moment with your baby dragon. So, is there something you'd love to do with him later today?" Twilight thought for a bit.

"I'm not sure..." Twilight said, "I don't have any ideas..." She then smiled at Spike. "Do you have any ideas, Spike...?" Spike smiled wide.

"Gamies!" he squealed loudly. Celestia raised her eyebrow.

"Excuse me?" she asked.

"Gamies! Gamies!" Spike squealed. Celestia looked at Twilight.

"Do you know what he means, Twily?" she asked.

"'Gamies' is what he called video games when he was a toddler," Twilight explained, "That means he wants to go to the arcade. That was one of his favorite things to do when he was little." Spike nodded fast.

"Yeah!" he said.

"Well, I think that's a wonderful idea," Celestia said, smiling again, "Everypony loves video games, including myself, so I think some time at the arcade would be wonderful." Twilight then got a better idea as she smiled.

"Actually, instead of the arcade, why don't we go to Stenchy McSkunkin's Fun Zone this afternoon?" she asked "It's been quite some time since Spike and I have gotten to play together, and I know Spike loves that place more than the arcade." Spike's smile widened, as he knew exactly what that place was.

"Yeah!" Spike squealed in joy, "Me wanna go!" Twilight giggled, patting his back as Celestia smiled

"Then we shall go later today," she said, "But it will have to wait after court, understood?" Both nodded.

"Yes, Mommy," they said simultaneously. Celestia smiled as one of her Pegasus Royal Guards entered the room.

"Your highness, I dearly apologize for interrupting you during your morning mealtime," he said, "But your first case will begin in two minutes, and I would hate for you to be tardy." Celestia nodded and stood up.

"Understood, Sir Guard," she said to him. She then looked back at Twilight and Spike. "I'll be back soon, my children." Both nodded as Celestia followed the guard to the courtroom. Twilight smiled.

"Hey Spike, why don't we go upstairs and play with our toys?" Twilight asked, "Someone would really love to see you again." Spike smiled wide.

"Yeah!" he said happily. Twilight giggled and pulled him out of the highchair, carrying him back upstairs. Once they reached Celestia's bedchamber, Spike looked down and giggled.

"Uh oh!" he said. Twilight looked back at him.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"I made pee-pees!" he squealed, poking his diaper, which was now yellow and puffy. Twilight smiled.

"Oh, well let me fix that," she said. She laid him on the changing table and changed his wet diaper, giggling as she taped it up.

"At least you kept all your tinkle in your diapee and not in my face this time," she joked. Spike laughed very hard, passing a loud toot as a result.

"Twily make funny!" he yelled. Twilight smiled.

"Thank you," she said, picking him up again. She placed him in the large playpen, climbing in after him. She then used her magic to grab Smarty Pants from the rug and held it in front of him.

"Hey look, Smarty Pants," Twilight said, "It's Spike! Our best friend!" Smarty Pants looked at Spike.

"Spike...?" Smarty Pants asked. Spike squealed and grabbed Smarty Pants, hugging her tight.

"Smarty Pants!" he squealed, "Smarty Pants back!" Smarty Pants squealed and hugging Spike back.

"Spikey-wikey!" she squealed, "I never thought I'd see you again! We've been apart ever since you grew up!" Spike giggled.

"I'm a baby now!" he said, "Smarty Pants play with me again?"

"Yeah!" Smarty Pants said. Twilight giggled.

"It's nice to see you two reunited," Twilight said, "And that you didn't forget each other."

"'Course not!" Spike said, "Me love Smarty Pants!" Twilight giggled again.

"Well, let's play, shall we?" Twilight asked, "What would you like to play?" Spike and Smarty Pants both smiled wide.

"Hide and seek!" they shouted simultaneously. Twilight smiled as well.

"Good idea!" Twilight said, "Let's play!"

For the next three hours, Twilight, Spike, and Smarty Pants played back-to-back games, like Hide and Seek and Charades. The trio was playing Guards and Changelings at that moment. Spike was the guard, and the sisters were the changelings. Twilight and Smarty Pants were hiding in the closet, underneath a big pile of Celestia's clothes and towels.

"He's never gonna find us, Queen Chrysalis!" Smarty Pants whispered cheerfully.

"Silence, my subject!" Twilight whispered back, "We cannot allow that guard to find us!" Spike wandered around the bedchamber, once or twice going into the bathroom to find them, but unsuccessful. Both Twilight and Smarty Pants smirked.

"You can't find us, you can't find us!" Smarty Pants teased.

Right when it seemed like Spike was gonna give up, he heard the sound of a wet pass of gas. He smirked a little as he looked toward the closet, walking over to it. Smarty Pants yelped and looked over at Twilight, who blushed a little as she began to mess herself. Spike grabbed the towel covering them, throwing it off as he squealed in joy.

"Found you!" Spike said happily.

"Twily!" Smarty Pants whined, "Your poo-poos gave us away!"

"I'm sorry, Smarty Pants..." Twilight said, "I really needed to go... and I didn't know it was gonna be so loud..." Smarty Pants sighed and hugged Twilight.

"It's OK..." she said, "It's only a game." Twilight smiled as she finished messing herself. Luckily, the sound of hoof-clops were heard in the hallway, and Celestia walked in.

"I'm back, my precious children," she said.

"Yay!" all three of them simultaneously cheered. Celestia giggled and then sniffed the air.

"Oh my," she said, "It smells to me that one of you needs a diaper change." Spike and Smarty Pants both giggled and pointed to Twilight, who blushed and raised her hoof.

"It's me," she said, "I made poopies." Celestia smiled and lifted Twilight onto the changing table.

"It's alright, Twily," Celestia said, "Thanks for telling the truth." Twilight smiled as Celestia changed her diaper.

"Thanks, Mommy," she said.

"You're very welcome, Twily," Celestia said. She then smiled. "Alright, let's get everyone dressed so we can go to Skunky's."

"Yay!" they all cheered again. Twilight and Spike got out of their onesies and went into Celestia's closet to find some public clothes. Twilight found the purple dress she loved to wear out in public, but Spike couldn't find anything for colts.

"Mommy..." Spike said, "C... can't... find nudding..." Celestia smiled.

"Aww, well let me help you, Spike," she said. She then reached behind a big dress and smiled again. "Here's your outfit." Spike looked at it. It was a plain white t-shirt, with a pair of blue overalls. Spike smiled and reached for them.

"Yeah! Me wanna wear those!" he squealed.

Celestia giggled and helped Spike get dressed, putting the shirt and overalls on him and clipping them on his shoulders. They were a little small for him, which caused his diaper to press against his crotch and backside a little, but there were still comfortable to the baby dragon. Anyway, after getting Spike dressed, she grabbed the stroller out of the closet. Twilight grabbed Smarty Pants and sat in the stroller, Spike joining her. Celestia strapped them in and pulled the sun-guard over them.

"Everyone comfy?" she asked.

"Yes, Mommy," everyone said.

"Wonderful," Celestia said, "Alright, everyone enjoy the ride."

Celestia pushed the stroller out of the Castle and pushed them to Stenchy McSkunkin's Fun Zone. The cool breeze and light bouncing of the stroller as it was pushed felt great, and Twilight rested her back against the padded seat as she smiled. But then, Spike turned a little bit to hug Twilight tight, nuzzling into her dress. Twilight jumped a little at the sudden touch, but instantly smiled.

"Me... me love you, Twily..." Spike said, nuzzling into her dress again. Twilight blushed in flattery as she hugged him back.

"I love you too, Spike..." she said, "And I promise... once we get back home... I'll make you a necessity in my life once again. No more putting my royal duties in front of my number one assistant." Spike smiled again.

"Yay!" he squealed. Twilight giggled.

"You silly baby dragon," she said, kissing his cheek.

After pushing the stroller for about ten minutes, Celestia and her foals finally reached Stenchy McSkunkin's Fun Zone. The very strong smell of pizza and cake hit their muzzles, almost making their mouths water. Several games were everywhere, an animatronic band was on the stage, upbeat music was playing, and several little fillies and colts were playing games and having fun. Twilight, Spike, and Smarty Pants all squealed in excitement, as there were itching to have fun. Celestia pushed them up to the red rope, where the foal-check manager was, dressed as a honey badger. He smiled at Celestia.

"Welcome to Stenchy McSkunkin's Fun Zone, Princess Celestia!" he said, "My name is Han E. Badger, and I'm Stenchy's cousin!" Celestia smiled.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Badger," she said, giving a royal bow at him. Han E. Badger looked at the foals in the stroller.

"Why, hello there, little cuties!" he said, "Are you here to have fun?" All giggled.

"Yeah!" they all said.

"Well you've come to the right place!" Han E. said. He grabbed his stamper and pressed it on the stamp ink a few times. "Please show me your paws, please!" Spike, Twilight, and Smarty Pants held out their hooves. Han E. stamped their hooves, and then Celestia's.

"Okie Dokie!" Han E. said, removing the rope, "All stamped up! Remember, I'm Han E. Badger, and if you need anything, come get me!" Celestia smiled.

"What do we say, everyone?" she asked the foals.

"Thank you, Mr. Badger!" they all said with smiles.

"You're very welcome, everyone!" Han E. said, "Now, go have fun!"

After Celestia unstrapped the foals, put the stroller in the storage closet, and ordered 150 tokens, she gave everyone fifty each and allowed them to play amongst themselves, while she sat at a table and kept watch. From playing skee-ball to crawling through plastic tunnels, Twilight, Spike, and Smarty Pants were simply having fun, collecting tickets, and winning big. But the best part about it to them is that they could spend time altogether with each other. After playing for an hour and a half, they joined the table with Celestia for some food, their won tickets hanging around their necks like snakes. The three foals shared a personal pineapple-hay pizza, while Celestia enjoyed a salad.

"I'm having so much fun here!" Smarty Pants squealed.

"Me too!" Spike said, marinara all over his face, "Me love this place!" Twilight giggled and wiped his face with a napkin.

"I'm having fun as well!" she said.

"Well, I'm glad everyone is enjoying themselves," Celestia said, feeding herself a bite of her salad, "I'm guessing my idea was a good one, correct?"

"Yeah!" Spike squealed. Celestia giggled.

"I'm glad you think so, Spike," she said. Right then, the music stopped, and the sound of microphone feedback was heard as everyone looked to the stage. Han E. was onstage with a microphone.

"Is everyone having fun?!" he asked. Fillies and colts cheered very loudly. "I'm glad you are! But now, it's 6:00! You know what that means!" Fillies and colts cheered again.

"Stenchy! Stenchy! Stenchy!" they chanted loudly. Han E. smiled.

"That's right, kids!" he said, "Put down the pizza and hurry up in the restroom, because now, it's time for the live show of the star of the place, and my good cousin..." He moved from the front of the curtains and introduced the star.

"Stenchy McSkunkin!" he yelled. The curtains opened and out came the mascot of the place, a giant striped skunk with huge whiskers, named Stenchy McSkunkin. Han E. gave the mic to Stenchy as Spike smiled wide.

"It Stenchy!" he squealed happily. Twilight smiled.

"I know!" she said, "And if you're lucky, you'll get to dance with him!" He squealed again as Stenchy spoke.

"Hello, kids!" he said, "It's your stinky pal, Stenchy McSkunkin! Is everyone having fun in my fun zone?!" Everyone cheered again, Spike louder than everyone. "It sure sounds like fun! But you know what? I really feel like I need to dance, but I don't wanna dance all by myself. Is there anyone out there who wants to dance with their favorite skunk?" A lot of "pick me" chants rang out as Stenchy looked out to choose a volunteer. Spike repeatedly jumped up and down on the chair with his hand raised, hoping Stenchy would pick him. Twilight crossed her hooves, rooting for him. Luckily, both of them got their wish, as Stenchy looked at Spike with a huge smile.

"Wow!" he said, "Hey everyone, look! I think I see a baby dragon back there!" Everyone turned to look at Spike. "Hey, little one, come up to the stage!" Everyone cheered for Spike loudly as he squealed in excitement, looking at Celestia for approval.

"Go ahead, Spike," Celestia said, patting him on the back. Spike squealed again and ran quickly onto the stage, getting face to face with Stenchy, who smiled at him.

"What's your name, baby dragon?" he asked.

"Spike!" Spike squealed loudly.

"Well, Spike," Stenchy said, "Would you like to dance with Stenchy?"

"Yeah!" Spike said.

"Well then!" Stenchy said, "Han! Hit the music!"

Han E. smiled and restarted the music. A very upbeat disco song began playing, and Stenchy began dancing. Spike hesitated for a bit, a little confused about what dances to do. But, he then began mimicking Stenchy's dance moves, getting cheers from the crowd. Twilight smiled, watching him dance with Stenchy as Celestia cuddled her from behind, pulling her into her lap.

"More memories returning?" Celestia asked.

"Yes..." Twilight said, "He used to dance with Stenchy every time he was in here, even if he wasn't chosen to go up there. This place used to make him so happy, and he always thanked me for taking him." Twilight sighed. "I just... I just wish I didn't make him feel the way he did to accept your offer... I wish... I could've thought about him more than myself... so he could see me as his hatcher and not a brick wall..." Celestia hugged Twilight a little tighter.

"I'm sure it still hurts you, Twily, but look at him," Celestia said, "He's happier than ever right now, and that's because of you. You were the one who suggested we come to this place, because you knew he would love it. If you ask me, this is a perfect way of thinking about him more than yourself." Twilight looked at Celestia.

"You really think so?" she asked.

"I know so," Celestia said, "Just because something pains you doesn't mean you can't fix it, and this is a nice way for you to fix it." Twilight smiled again, watching Spike dance again.

"Yeah... I suppose it is..." she said.

After Spike and Stenchy danced together to a five-minute song, Stenchy complimented Spike's dance moves, gave him a handful of tickets and a big hug, and sent him off the stage so another filly or colt could dance with him. Spike quickly ran over to Twilight and Celestia and jumped into Twilight's hooves.

"Me did it!" he squealed loudly, "Me gotta dance with Stenchy McSkunkin!"

"I know, Spike!" Twilight said happily, "I'm so happy for you!" Spike giggled.

"You're so lucky, Spike!" Smarty Pants said, "I've never got to dance with Stenchy before! It must be wonderful!"

"It is!" Spike said, "Stenchy good dancer, and he say me good dancer too!"

"You're a wonderful dancer, Spike," Twilight said, kissing his cheek, "I'm glad you had fun with Stenchy." Spike giggled and hugged Twilight tight.

"Me love you, Twily!" he said happily.

"I love you too, Spike," Twilight said. Celestia smiled and joined the hug, along with Smarty Pants.

"This is nice," she said, "We definitely are one big happy family." Spike giggled again.

After spending another two hours at Stenchy McSkunkin's Fun Zone, everyone was ready to go. First, everyone cashed in their tickets and bought prizes. Smarty Pants got a can of silly string and a noisemaker, Twilight got a yo-yo, a pair of fuzzy dice, and a poster, and Spike got a giant Stenchy plushie, about the same size as him. After getting their prizes, Celestia got them back into the stroller and went to the foal-check zone again. Han E. checked their stamps and made sure they came in together, and let them leave. Spike leaned back, cuddling his plushie as Twilight nuzzled him.

"Did you have fun, Spike?" she asked.

"Yeah!" Spike said, "Me love Stenchy!" Smarty Pants smiled.

"I know!" she said, "And look! Stenchy gets to go home with you!" Spike hugged his giant plush tighter.

"Yeah!" Spike squealed again, "Me love you Stenchy!" Twilight smiled and grabbed Stenchy with her magic, making it look like he was talking.

"I love you too, Spike!" she said, trying her best to mimick Stenchy's voice. Spike giggled and nuzzled him again. For a few minutes, it was a silent ride, Spike cuddling Stenchy and Twilight cuddling Smarty Pants. Halfway there, a foul smell filled the stroller, and Smarty Pants was the first to catch it as she sniffed the air.

"Eww!" she said, covering her muzzle and looking at Twilight, "Twily, did you make a stinky?!" Twilight shook her head.

"Nope," Twilight said, "I'm clean." Spike giggled.

"Me make poopy!" he said proudly.

"Aww, Spike!" Smarty Pants said, "Why didn't you wait until we got home first? That's really stinky!"

"Oh... sorry..." Spike said. Twilight smiled and used her magic on Stenchy again.

"I don't think you're very stinky, Spike," Stenchy said, "I think you smell kinda nice, and I'm a skunk." Spike giggled.

"Stenchy no mind it!" he said. Smarty Pants sighed and hugged Spike.

"I don't mind either, Spike," she said, "You're more cuddly than stinky." She kissed his cheek, making him smile again.

"Me love you, Smarty Pants," Spike said.

"I love you too, Spike," Smarty Pants said. That's when a loud fart came from Twilight as she messed her diaper as well with a sigh of relief. Spike and Smarty Pants giggled and held their noses.

"Twily go poo-poo too!" Spike squealed.

"Aww!" Smarty Pants whined, "You too?!" Twilight blushed and giggled.

"Sorry... I had a lot of pizza and really needed to go..." she said.

"Great..." Smarty Pants said, "Now I gotta share a stroller with two stinky babies..." Everyone giggled and rode the rest of the way in silence.

After getting back to the Castle, Celestia took the foals upstairs and placed the stroller back in the closet. She changed Spike and Twilight and gave them a bath, Smarty Pants and Stenchy joining them. After their bath, Celestia re-diapered the foals and dressed them in their night-clothes. At that point, Celestia was nursing Spike, Twilight watching him. He only needed to suckle for two minutes, as his reptilian stomach didn't need much milk to be full. He slowly pulled away from Celestia's teat and wiped his mouth.

"All better, Spike?" Celestia asked, patting his back. Spike's face twisted a bit as he let out a loud belch, then sighed.

"Me better now," he said. Celestia smiled.

"Wonderful," she said, "Alright, I think it's time for the babies to go night-night." Twilight nodded and grabbed Smarty Pants, while Spike grabbed Stenchy. Celestia used her magic to tuck both of them into the crib, gave them a kiss on their muzzles, and turned off the light.

"Goodnight, my little angels," she said.

"Goodnight, Mommy," Twilight and Spike said. Celestia laid down on her rug and went to sleep as Twilight snuggled Spike.

"I really enjoyed playing with you, Spike..." she said, "It was nice to play with you like I did when you were little..." Spike smiled.

"Me like playing with Twily..." he said, nuzzling into her pajamas, "...cuz Twily my sissy..." Twilight blushed very hard as she felt her heart skip a beat at his kind words.

"You really see me as a sissy...?" she asked.

"Mm-hmm," Spike said, "Twily fun to play with, and me love her..." Twilight kissed his cheek.

"I love you too, Spike..." she said, "Goodnight..." Spike smiled again.

"Ny-ny, Twily..." he said. Twilight and Spike fell asleep, deep in each other's embraces.

~~~~~~~~~~

Spike woke up in his bed the next morning with a loud yawn. Rubbing his eyes and smacking his lips, he sat up, feeling something heavy sitting in his lap. He opened his eyes and looked in his lap, seeing the Stenchy plush he had gotten the previous day. Spike smiled and giggled a little.

"Hmm, I wonder how this got here..." he sarcastically said, giggling again, "Man... that was an awesome time, yesterday..." Spike hugged Stenchy for a little, but then Spike noticed a scroll wedged in-between Stenchy's hind legs, wrapped in a purple and green ribbon. Spike grabbed the scroll and opened it, reading to himself.

"Dear Spike," he read, "Thank you so much for agreeing to play along with Twilight and pretending to be a foal. And I must say, you did a wonderful job pretending to be regressed. I didn't believe you could keep it up, but I'm glad you could, so you could hear her apologies." Spike smirked.

"Yeah, but it wasn't easy," Spike said, "I almost blew it like twenty times, because of how nice Twilight was being." He continued to read.

"And I hope you enjoyed your time with Twilight," he read, "Because Twilight sure did. Also, I know you accepted without a gift request, as you just wanted to spend time with Twilight, but I thought of something you've also wanted for a long time, and I took the liberty of arranging something special regarding this. However, though I trust you as I do Twilight, you must keep this to yourself, and speak of Twilight's fetish to nopony else, not even the ones who know about it. Your Princess and co-mentor, Celestia." Spike smiled, but was also a little confused.

"Well, that's great," he said, "But what is she talking about...? Arranged something special... regarding what...?" Right then, there was a knock at the door. Spike groaned and stood up, walking downstairs.

"I swear," he said, "If this is another pony asking for an autograph from Twilight, I'm gonna be mad." He went over to the door and opened it. "Look, I told you, Twilight is in Cant-"

He cut himself off when he saw who was standing at the door. It was Rarity, wearing her saddlebag and sunhat. She looked at Spike and smiled.

"Good morning, Spike," she said, doing a ladylike curtesy at him. Spike yelped.

"Rarity!" he said, "Is today a gem-hunting day?! I-I-I think I forgot again! If you give me a few minutes, I can-" Rarity placed her hoof over his mouth.

"You don't need to worry about anything, Spike," she said, "For once, I am not here to have you accompany me to the gem-grounds." Spike blinked in surprise.

"Oh..." he said, "Well... what do you need...?" She smiled and pulled a coupon out of her saddlebag.

"Well, I was on my way to that new French restaurant that recently opened to cash in this coupon," she said, "However, after reading this on my way there, I realized it was for two, and I have no one to share it with, soooo..." Spike instantly caught on.

"Are... are you... are you...?" Spike asked.

"Yes," Rarity said, "Would you like to share this coupon with me?" Spike gasped loudly.

"Are you asking me on a date?!" he yelped. Rarity giggled.

"I suppose I am," she said. Spike squealed excitedly.

"Holy cow! Yes!" he said, "I'll go!" Rarity smiled. "B-but, I just woke up! Sh-should I go upstairs and take a shower or put on something to wear or-?!" Rarity put her hoof over his mouth again.

"No, Spike," she said, nuzzling him, "You're perfect just the way you are." Spike smiled, blushing hard. "Now, let's go, darling."

Spike nodded fast and hopped onto Rarity's back, Rarity using her magic to lock the Castle back up. Spike excitedly hopped up and down on Rarity's back, as he was going on a date with the mare he's always had a crush on. Speaking of which, once he thought about it, he smiled and looked toward Canterlot.

"First a playdate with Twilight, and now a real date with Rarity?!" Spike said in his head, "This is awesome! Don't worry, Celestia! Twilight's secret is safe with me!" Rarity had just gotten to the restaurant and right before Spike went in, he smiled another time.

"Oh yeah, and thanks, Princess Celestia," he said, "Keep Twilight safe for me."

Author's Note

And I must say, you did a wonderful job pretending to be regressed. I didn't believe you could keep it up, but I'm glad you did, so you could hear her apologies.

Yes, Spike was pretending to be regressed for this chapter. See, this is a compromise. I really wanted to keep Spike normal for this chapter, since he's got a good reason for why he accepted. Seriously, I can't be the only one out there that thinks Spike is drifting further and further away from Twilight ever since she became an Alicorn. But I feared that people would begin to call me out for not regressing characters as often as I made it seem, so I made a compromise.

I'm am VERY sorry for such a long delay. I've got a job now, and I'm going into my final year of high school, so I've been much, much busier than I use to be. I hope I haven't been away for too long, and that I still have a good amount of readers for this story. I'm just glad I was finally able to continue this story.

ANYWAY! Votes are back, and new characters have been chosen!

Vinyl Scratch*
Octavia*
Princess Cadence*
Shining Armor*
Minuette
Big Macintosh
Princess Luna
(*Separately first, then together later, once I start combining characters)

Also, once the winner is selected, a new name will take its place, so new characters can always be voted for! (Some characters I will have to reject, on accounts that I can't make anything out of a character, or because I can't stand them in the show) [Please do not ask for Discord or Starlight Glimmer, because they will be rejected. Tear me apart in in the comments if you want, but I just absolutely hate them both.]

Cast your votes now, and in two weeks, the winner will be decided.

Thank you for being patient, and I hope you enjoyed Spike's chapter.
