Chapter 1

The purple dragon was laying on a bed at the psychiatrists. Even though it’s been about 5 years since Twilight’s death, Spike haven’t forgotten a thing about this purple unicorn. He was still affected by this incident.

“Have I told you about Twilight Sparkle... no? Of course not. She already passed away due to reasons I do not wish to talk about. She was like a sister... no. A mother to me. We grew up together, she raised me, she even treated me with care and respect. I was her number 1 assistant”

The purple dragon looked down at the depressing gray colored floor without any particular face expressions. He looked at the picture frame with him and Twilight in his hands, from the times when she was alive.

The psychiatrist's name was Fiona. Fiona was a cyan colored unicorn, wearing a white coat and red glasses, and her orange mane in a length much like Fluttershy.

She wrote down with her quill, taking quick notes of everything that was said. She glowed her horn, taking small sips from her black, hot coffee from time to time before she started to speak.

“Can you tell me a little about your life with Twilight and her friends?” Fiona asked her patient and took another sip of her coffee

Spike nodded, and smiled lightly and stared up at her, before he started to speak.

“I did enjoy myself a lot in the past like: Nightmare night, writing friendship reports to Princess Celestia, The royal wedding, and of course everponies birthday parties, which Pinkie Pie would host.“

Spike’s expression changed pretty quickly, and stared up at the cyan unicorn again.

“But as I said earlier, everything has gotten so messed up. For one. Rarity is going out with this other fucking prick!” Spike hit the table in rage as he said so, before he stared awkwardly at the unicorn again.

“I’m sorry, Mrs.Fiona.”

Fiona smiled nervously at the purple dragon “Please go on, Spike”

Spike sighed once again before continuing

“Rainbow Dash has been rather enraged because of how she failed at joining the wonderbolts, but as strong as she is, she should be fine. She spends the most of her time in Cloudsdale. Sweet Apple Acres is out of business, and Applejack moved with Fluttershy to Las Pegasis, trying to get a better life.”

Spike’s voice got more and more depressed when he talked about his friends. However, he thought about the words Pinkie Pie told him 6 years ago: Just keep on smiling and never look back.

“The only positive thing is the Cutie Mark Crusaders. They have got their talents, and as always they are sticking close together. Pinkie Pie haven’t changed much. She is always happy, and the only pony trying to do something around town. Even with all the stuff.”

Fiona took off her glasses and sighed slightly, and put them on the table, smiling gently.

“Well it seems like you are getting better after all, Spike. I understand you are going through a lot, but look at the things you already have and all the things in between. When you get out, I want you to go and talk to your friends. Distract yourself from her death, and go out and have some fun.”

Spike gently rubbed the back of his head awkwardly, not bother to give a response.

Fiona glowed her horn yet again, but this time she levitated an old watch, checking the time.

“We are done for today, Spike. You should get some rest for your big surprise tomorrow”

Spike knew that this night would feel like a big roller coaster off emptiness as every night. He was led out by a bunch of ponies, and into his room. Spike laid his head on the soft pillow exhausted.

As the next day occurred, Spike was already awake staring at the tight shut window, as the sun shined through the light blue curtains. After a while, Fiona opened Spike’s door slowly.

“Are you awake Spike” She asked through the door opening, with a fake smile across her face.

Spike nodded lightly, with his blanket on top of him.

“Yes Mrs.Fiona.” Spike said with his soft voice.

“I woke up just a short while ago actually.”

Fiona walked into his room. Without any warning, she ran up and hugged him gently.

“You have done well, Spike. I am here to say you are free to go now.” Fiona’s eyes became wet with tears, but she was somewhat happy.

“Take care Spike. Whatever you need, I will be here to talk, even if you are not my patient anymore.”

Spike was shocked by this sudden message, and held tightly around her psychiatrist, smiling once again. which seemed like an eternity since last time.

“Thank you, Mrs.Fiona. I owe so much to you. You taught me a lot about how to move on.” Spike’s voice had reached his normal tone, rubbing the psychiatrist's back in circles.

Spike glanced back at the institution he had been living in for the past 5 years.
He kept looking back at the institution as he walked down the lonely road that would lead him back home.

As soon as Spike got home to the abandoned library, he opened the door for the first time since he had left 5 years ago. Everything in the library was covered in dust and the air was thick as cotton balls.

He coughed repeatedly, opening all the windows throughout the library. He walked upstairs looking at his surroundings, thinking of all the things him and Twilight went through.

”Wow... this place haven’t changed at all. The books are untouched, the bed is just the way I left it.” He thought to himself with a smile on his face.
“Well, I got work to do” Spike shut the door behind him as he left his home one again.

“I should go and buy some flowers to put on Twilight’s grave” He spoke to no one in particular, except himself.

He slowly began to walk towards Ponyville cemetery. Soon after, Spike had arrived to the cemetery. He walked around, staring at the gravestones, searching for his dear friend.

He eventually found her tombstone near the end of the cemetery. He sat down in front of Twilight`s grave, placing the red flowers near the others from her friends.

“I know you can’t hear me Twilight, but i really miss you. We all do! I wish I could be there for you and your friends.” 3 seconds of silence, he began to speak again

“I wonder how they are holding up.” He thought to himself.

I haven’t seen them for 5 years for pete sake”

Spike got up as he stared at Twilight’s picture frame, from when she was young.
Spike began to walk away from the grave.
“Maybe Pinkie Pie has a cheerful advice to share with me?”

Spike stared blankly at the sky, as he kept walking. Several minutes had passed before he arrived at the Sugar Cube Corner in complete silence. Spike stared through the window, before he decided to walk in, or at least knock.

“Great, she seems to be home after all” Spike said cheerfully and decided to knock.

The pink party pony opened the door slowly with a smile across her face, as soon as she saw the purple dragon, which she hasn’t seen in eternity

“Is that you Spike?”.

Spike nodded slowly, tapping his feet on the ground. “Yes. It’s been a while hasn’t it?” Pinkie pie rushed to the purple dragon, grabbing her hoof around his shoulder.

“I have missed you so much! This definitely calls for a party!”

Pinkie Pie pulled Spike in the house, overjoyed seeing her friend once again. She gave him a tight hug, and started to giggle.

Spike sighed in the Pinkie pie’s grip. “No thank you. I don’t feel like partying right now”
Spike turned his head around as he suddenly belches out a letter.

“W-what? A letter from the princess?” He opened up the letter and widens his eyes from the content.

Pinkie stared at him confused and tried to peek at the letter
“ Ooo! A letter. What is it Spike?” Pinkie Pie questioned the purple dragon with her curious tone.

Spike hid the letter behind his back

“N-Nothing at all, Pinkie”

Pinkie Pie raised her eyebrows, and grabbed his shoulders. “What’s going on?”

Pinkie Pie questioned with her unusual serious tone, knowing something was going on. From experience, even Pinkie Pie knew something was up.

Spike swallowed not sure how to respond.

“I-I can’t tell you Pinkie!” Spike ran to the the closest door.

left to an empty room, shut the door behind him, locking it tight.

Spike opened up the letter, and began to read it out in his own mind. The letters were written in thick, blood red colored font.

“We know all about you Spike. We know about your past, your friends, but the question is, are you willing to risk everything to see Twilight again. Are you willing to risk your freedom and your own life? 5 days, 5 trials. If you fail, you will never see her again. The first trial is inside Twilight Sparkle’s coffin. You know what to do.”

Spikes eyes widen, at what he just read. Spike quickly ran outside out of Sugar cube corner with no word in advance.

“Hey! aren’t you even gonna say goo-” Spike had already left the building before she could finish her sentence.

“Oh brother” Pinkie sighed and didn’t bother to run after him.

He rushed into the graveyard once again, and picked up a shovel. He began to dig the grave without hesitation. 10 minutes of hard shoveling and sweating, he hit the wooden coffin.

He broke the front of the casket, till he reached the pony inside. “What the hay!” He gaped up his mouth in shock from the corpse.

“This can’t be Twilight...” Spike reached down and found the first parchment, and unwrapped it and began to read it.

“Are you willing to kill, to save Twilight? You must be done by midnight. Go to Canterlot archives, there you will find the picture of the victim” Spike got chills down his spine
“I-I have to kill someone? Can I really kill somepony in order to proceed?”
Spike thought out loud.

“I have to do it for Twilight” He exclaimed, and ran to his library to hide his parchment under his dusty bed.

He ran to the Ponyville train station in a hurry. The train had just began to leave the station. He ran as fast as he could, sweating. He could not miss that train no matter what, or else he would miss the deadline.

He ran and jumped through the window, shattering it in thousands of pieces.

The loud noise of shattered glass was heard through the entire wagon or perhaps the entire train?

Where did he end up you may ask? Luckily he fell at some soft feather bags. Why do they have those those conveniently placed in a wagon...?

He stood up on his legs again, and tried to find a narrow place to crawl in so he could hide. Perhaps the whole trip if he had to, either way he could not come out. Suddenly he heard a low whispering voice behind him

“Spike, why are we hiding!?”

The voice was very familiar. Spike widened his eyes. His iris was smaller than a raisin. He was panicking, his thick scales were shivering. was he already caught?

Spike stared back at the unknown pony. He then realized the familiar colors, and voice, the breath of sweet cotton candy already revealed her identity.

Spike jumped, but relaxed quite quickly. “Pinkie! What are you doing here? How did you find me?” His loud whispering was of course louder than his normal tone.

“Well, duh. When I saw you hiding something I was so curious and I thought Hey maybe i should follow him and see what’s up Besides I don’t want you to get hurt since we haven’t seen each other in soooooo many y-”

Spike shoved his hand up her mouth, as Pinkie mumbled the rest of the words, but, of course it was impossible to understand any of it. “Please just go home...”

Pinkie Pie began to shake her silly head.

“Nopey dopey. I want to keep up with you, I mean we have soooo much to catch up to, besides. Dashie and Applejack isn’t home. Soooo~ I am going with you” Pinkie Pie demanded

Spike shrugged and sighed as he kept eye contact with Pinkie

“Well okay, but you are not allowed to follow me around Canterlot. There is somethin I must do alone.”

Pinkie Pie nodded in agreement, even though she didn’t pay too much attention to what he was saying.

“Oki doki loki!” She gave a happy smile

Spike sat down and closed his eyes. The hour passed quite quickly

“Ugh. are we there yet Pinkie?” The Pink pony was already gone.

“Oh for sweet Celestia’s sake!” He cried out furiously.

Pinkie Pie however was rubbing her face in cakes and other sweets, whether she was allowed to or not, didn’t matter. Because she was already wearing an apron.

The bakers around her was shocked of course.

”Who is that mare? Should we stop her?” one baker questioned one of his clients.

“I think that would be a good idea”

Spike wandered around aimlessly, searching for his friend“Where is that silly pink pony now”

He said in his annoyed yet tired tone. Spike rubbed his head as he saw pinkie pie in the kitchen part of the wagon.

“Pinkie get over here” Spike whispered a little loud and motioned with his hands.

“Spike! Oh come here, come here! You should come here and taste these deeelicious cakes!” she exclaimed, staring over at Spike, as she was munching on cakes.

Spike took a deep breath, as his heart was racing since they were now spotted. He grabbed Pinkie pie’s hoof, and ran off in a hurry. Pinkie Pie dropped her caked on the ground, as she was pulled away
“Hey!” Pinkie cried out.

“I was eating that!”

“Well there is no time for eating that you silly pink pony!” He used the same tone her as in an of mocking her.

“Aww...” Pinkie gave a pout and looked back at the kitchen with all the delicious looking sweets with her huge, cutesy looking eyes

“I’ll be back someday!” She gave a whisper, as they walked

“We arrive in Canterlot station in 5 minutes. Everypony must leave the train.” Spike sighed in relief and went back to where he was sleeping.

Spike saw some crates right under the window he jump through a while ago
“Pinkie, when we get out, you will take the closest train back to Ponyville.”

Pinkie shaked her head in disagreement “Nopey dopey. Ponyville is boring now I mean, sure. Rainbow Dash is fun and all, but she is spending so much time in Cloudsdale an-”

Spike interrupted her in slight annoyance “I get it! Fine... But no... nevermind”
The train stopped after about a minutes or two.

Spike climbed up to the window and crawled through. His thick scales made it easy for him to crawl through the sharpened glass shards.

Pinkie Pie was already out of the train, jumping around happily. “Ooo! this is gonna be sooo much fun!”

Spike sighed at the pink pony’s happy attitude. Out of all the times it had to be now she was happy “Sure, let’s go.”

Chapter 2

Spike and Pinkie Pie were walking away from Canterlot train station. As Pinkie Pie skipped cheerfully along with Spike, Spike had plenty of thoughts running through his head.

Who was that mare in Twilight Sparkle’s coffin?

Where is Twilight’s body now?

Who did I have to kill?

What are the rest of the trials

Would I ever succeed?

Also, Why would the letter come from the princess? It didn’t make any sense. The Princess has always been faithful to Twilight, as Twilight had been faithful to her. Or was it from the princess?

He didn’t like this one bit. He glanced at the ground, as his mind was racing through hundreds of other thoughts.

The cheerful pink pony stared at Spike. She had taken notice that Spike was not really happy, or at least not in the correct mood.

“Is something wrong Spike? I see a frown on that face” Pinkie twitched her eye. Which of course was not one of her Pinkie senses.

Spike shook his head. Yes, there was something wrong, but Spike could not tell her. At least not yet. He took this moment before replying.

“I guess I’m just distracted by... Err...” He looked around his surroundings, trying to think of a quick excuse. “The....ground? Yes, the ground!” He gave a bright sheepish looking smile, hoping that Pinkie Pie would buy it. Of course he knew it wouldn’t work.

Pinkie stared deeply into his eyes. Never before had she seen Spike act like that. She sighed and gave Spike a light, warming hug “You know you should not hide anything from me.” She spoke in a quite unusual motherly tone. She surprisingly did take this seriously.

Spike did not know how to react at all. Should he tell her about this whole ‘trial’ mess?

No... if he want to have Twilight back, it needs to be a secret, at least till this is done

“I will Pinkie, but I promise I am fine. Let’s just find a hotel or something, I guess I just need a little rest.” He was indeed tired, but it needed to be very quick. Maximum would be 1 hour, otherwise he would not be able to finish this in time.

Pinkie Pie nodded in agreement, and released her grip “Let’s go” She said happily, as she was trotting after Spike.

It was already 7 pm. It was just 5 hours until the deadline. As they walked, Spike saw a hotel just around the corner. He took small steps, walking towards the hotel entrance. The door opened automatically. He took a look inside, and noticed that this room was quite large and fancy. Somehow it even looked bigger inside than the outside.

Spike and Pinkie Pie walked towards the counter, but as short as he is, he didn’t even

see the receptionist, so Pinkie Pie had to do it for him. ‘

“Hello?” Pinkie pie cried out, and rang the belle twice. The receptionist wasn’t there to be seen.

Soon after, a yellow earth pony walked towards the counter

“How may I help you?” The receptionist asked in a calm, gentle voice.

“A room for two please.” Pinking Pie requested

“A room for two... That will be 50 bits each for one night.” The price was outrageously expensive. “What! 50 bits?” Pinkie Pie cried out “We can’t pay 50 bi-”

Spike interrupted her, as he climbed on her back “We’ll take it!”

Pinkie Pie widened her eyes. “What? Are we paying?”

Spike gave nothing but a nod. Pinkie Pie sighed got some money out of... nowhere. Where else would a pony keep their money anyway? Pinkie muttered to herself some nonsense. “Here! 100 bits!” She said rather a tad bit annoyed

The receptionist hoofed the keys over to them. “2nd floor. Room 115, end of the corridor.”

The duo ventured forth. They stood by a not so big elevator.

Spike pushed the button, that would lead the elevator to their floor. Of course they could just taken the stairs... The elevator soon came down in a matter of 20 seconds.

The duo took a step into the elevator. Both Pinkie and Spike just stood there looking awkwardly at each other.

“So... have you been working lately?” Spike asked his pink friend. Pinkie shook her head. “Nopey dopey....i only work on sundays and mondays” Pinkie pie responded with a cheerful voice

Huh? Sundays? Why would anypony in Equestria work on sundays anyway?

The elevator opened up. It was rather slow for being such a modern elevator, but that didn’t matter. They walked toward the end of the corridor, glaring at the numbers of each door. “There, 115!” Spike gave a shout out, and brought forth his key and opened it.

Inside was a large room with 2 double beds and 2 lamps, a mini bar and a large bath room.

“Wooow. this place looks amazing!” Pinkie Pie shouted happily

As they walked inside, Spike felt rather dizzy for whatever reason. He walked toward a random bed and collapsed. Everything went dark for him. He could hear Pinkie’s voice call for him, but too late. He was already unconscious

--

“Wh...where am I?!” Spike’s voice echoed throughout the room. He was in a pitch dark place. He glanced over at the dark, empty space. It soon began to lit up. The pitch black wall showed his deepest memories.

“Twi..Twilight is that you!?” He widened his eyes, he stuttered, he smiled and was as cheerful he could ever get.

Twilight and spike were just walking away from Sugarcube Corner. Both Spike and Twilight were laughing.

“That was a great party, Pinkie! Again, thanks for hosting my Birthday party” Twilight said cheerfully with Spike on her back.

“Noooo problem. Anything for you Twilight!” Pinkie responded from the balcony overly happy.

“I remember that party like it was yesterday.” He said to himself , as it echoed across the room. Really, it had been almost 8 years.

“The happy times with me and Twilight have been the best times I have ever witnessed.” he spoke with a timid voice, yet he was overjoyed. This was a great opportunity to get distracted by Twilight’s death

Speaking of which. It skipped to the hospital. It was just 5 months later. With the 5 ponies and Spike They stood with the purple mare. Twilight was breathing heavily, panting, almost lifeless, but she was cheerful to the very end.

“This day was the day...” He stopped before talking, to dry off a tear “This was the day she had gone to peace. Every time I think of this moment, I wish for the same thing all the time. Why couldn’t it be me?” Spike questioned nopony in sight.

Her voice echoed through his head. She used her last strength to speak to her friends for the last time.

She turned over to Applejack, breathing heavily.

“Applejack... You are certainly the most amazing pony I have ever met. You are certainly the best pony I could go to for the best kind of advice. Through the bad and good times.”

“Fluttershy... you are the most kindest pony I have ever known in my entire life. You knew how to even give the most heartless pony a flutter in their heart, and you certainly fought for your friends. You sure was shy, but even you could overcome your worst fears”

“Rarity you are an amazing pony. Your generosity, your responsibility, everything, and your dresses are just as great, and your generosity made them even greater. I know you will become famous one day, and shine all over Equestria.”

“Rainbow Dash... You were one of the few ponies I really admired. Your bravery, your style, the way you helped everypony. I really did envy you. You are pretty much what I wanted to be all these years. You will definitely become the best flier in Equestria for sure.”

“Pinkie Pie...” Her voice slowly started to fade away, but she kept going. “You are the greatest pony to ever have as a friend when somepony are sad. You teached me a lot that even I didn’t know. For one thing, you teached me how to smile, laugh and have the greatest times of my life.”

She even gave a bright smile, and closed her eyes. She then turned over to Spike.

“And you, Spike... you have been like a..” She stopped for a full 10 seconds “You have been like a son to me.” Her voice had finally started to reach the limit where she could barely talk

“I know you will become a great, and an amazing dragon, Spike... You were the one who kept me going, and you certainly gave me a reason to carry on. Without you, I would still be a loner to this very day. I will always remember you as my number one assisstant.”

A tear drips down Twilight’s cheek. Her heart rate had dropped intesively, her voice was gone. Her life began to fade away, and her heart stopped pounding.

Spike teared up. “Twilight! This isn’t funny! Wake up! We’ll go home and... do some re-shelfing, right?” He got no response at all. He hugged Applejack tightly. Finally, he decided it was time to let it all out.

“This is it, y’all.” Applejack stated, with tears in her eyes. “Our Twilight is finally in peace.” He held her hoof around Spike.

“I’m going to the library... if anyone need me, you know where to find me” He brok of the grip, and walked off.

Rarity pulled a hoof stitched blanket over Twilight “You are in a better place now, I would hope.” Rarity gave Applejack a tight hug, and even began to cry

Rainbow Dash finally showed her emotions, and got plenty of tears rolling down her cheek “T-This is it girls... I am going back to cloudsdale. I do not know when I will be back.” She rapidly flew away, in an enormous speed out the opened window.

“Dashie!” Pinkie Pie tried to yell back at the mare. She sighed, and hugged Twilight’s lifeless body. “I can’t even take my own advice... My advice to smile, and being confident that everything is alright.” She shed a tear and released the grip. “What now, girls. Dashie is gone too.”

Fluttershy stared blankly at Twilight. She backed away a few steps. “I am going as well, Pinkie Pie. I am going to stay in Las Pegasis for a while.” She slowly started to walk away

“Hold just one darn minute. Ah’m comin’ with ya’ll” Applejack said with a determined voice

“W-What?! You guys are leaving too?” Pinkie Pie asked even more devestated. “What about our friendship!” She yelled “Shouldn’t we stay together at least”

Both of them went away, not listening to the pink mare “Oh brother.” She looked at Rarity “What bout you”

Rarity sighed. “I am going back to the boutique, Pinkie...” She left soon after.

Moment later, It flashed white all of a sudden. Spike stared blankly at the wall in silence.

____

“Spike... Spiiiike!!” The familiar high pitched voice finally reached him.

“Finally! I have been waiting for hours!” Pinkie pie spoke a tad bit worried, but of course she was exaggerating “Well, it was just about 54 minutes and 39 seconds...”

“Pinkie I need to go out and fix something... like, you know. Candy... or something. I’ll

be back in an hour or two” He shed a tear, but quickly wiped it away. With that, he ran off.

Spike got out of the room. He began to run towards the elevator, hoping that Pinkie Pie wouldn’t follow him .

As Spike had left the hotel, he saw the top of the castle, and stared at the clock. It was already 10 PM.

Spike took a deep breath, as he kept walking straight towards the castle entrance. A lot of pony citizens were looking at him as he passed through. Spike looked from side to side, gazing upon the eyes of the ponies

He proceeded towards the archives. Spike looked from a corner and looked into the archive room to see if there were any guards patrolling the area. Fortunately for him, was luck by his side. No guards, or anypony else he should stay away from. He proceeded towards the door, and grabbed the door

He opened wooden door, looking at a large room with papers scattered everywhere “Oh great!” He said annoyed “This will take fore-” He saw a parchment with looked way older than the usual scrolls/parchments around her. “Well... that was easy” He said.

He picked up the scroll. “Let’s see”

“I have seen you have come this far Spike. You are probably wondering who you are going to kill? You are probably aware of Rarity’s boyfriend, am I right? He is working in this castle. Find him, kill him and drag his body out to the forest outside of Canterlot. There is a revolver in this scroll. It is loaded. Go finish the job!”

An image of the stallion was put in the gun barrel. It was Prince Blueblood. Spike lowers his eyelids. “When did Rarity hook up with such a moron anyway?” he questioned himself, and looked up.

He looked at the large clock above the door. “Great. 11:20 already. I have no time to lose”

Spike found the revolver in the scroll. “I’m sorry Rarity...” He shed a tear.

He walked out the corridor, with no guards in sight. Spike could look for him. This certainly was convenient. Looks like hunting down a certain somepony would be easy today. Though, where would he be by now?

Spike took a deep breath and started to sprint towards the bedroom. Spike felt like his heart was about to stop when he reached for the door door. Just a few seconds after

catching his breath, Spike could hear someone from Blue blood’s bedroom, Spike started to panic. He turned his head from side to side and started to look for somewhere to hide. He saw a pair of blue curtain, which reached the floor. Spike had no other choice, he ran off once more to hide behind the curtains.

He tried to calm down, and avoid being spotted behind the curtains was easier said than done. He sat in a fetal position for crying out loud. He knew that if she/he saw him they, would most likely bring him to Princess Celestia, or possibly worse!

As the door got open, a young maid left the room. In a hurry, Spike thought that it would be safe to check if the coast was clear.

“Phew.” He started to walk toward the room he opened the door quite slowly, in attempt to make as little noise as possible. Most of the accessories was covered in gold, and jewelry. Even the furnitures.

There was silence through the entire room. He peeked in a bit further, until he saw a shadow.

“There he is spike said with a nervous voice” Prince blueblood was sitting on a chair, reading a novel. He had a pipe in his mouth, he was wearing a black suit that looked hoof stitched, a tie and a hat.

Spike opened checked for ammo, luckily it was ready for ‘action’. He sighed! and stared at the prince. He walked up to the prince, poked his shoulder, and aimed the revolver against his head.

“Ugh, what is it now!” He said rather annoyed. That was until he turned around, and took notice to the revolver up to his head “W-Woah... calm down mister, let’s not get violent, shall we?”

Spike held his finger against the trigger ready to shoot, but somehow he could not do it. He could not pull the trigger “Please! Don’t shoot, I have a wife and everything.” He held up a picture of Rarity in his hooves. “S-See!”

Spike sighed, and remembered that he was still in love with this mare. He could not hesitate any further “I will say hello for you” He finally pulled the trigger. The bullet squeezed out of the barrel, and hit him directly in the head.

He fell down on his knees, dropped the gun and stared at his his hands as he could feel his tears squeeze out through his eyes. He could not believe he had just shot somepony.

He pulled himself together, and grabbed the body from his hind legs. He looked throughout the room until he saw a bag big with room enough for the prince. He dropped the body and grabbed the bag.

As He stuffed the body, he could hear guards sprinting to his location. Looks like they heard the shot.

Spike was panicking, adrenaline rushed through his body, when he heard the guards were running directly to his location. He looked at the large windows, he did not know where it would lead, he did not know how far it was down, but he had no other choice.

“Here goes nothing.”

He ran and took a dolphin dive straight trough the window. The glass had shattered everywhere. He fell down to a flowing river. He fell unconcious yet again from the fall, but this time only for about 10 minutes.

Spike felt a lot of pain running trough his whole body. The landing was pretty harsh.

He woke up in a grassy area, with trees everywhere” He got up as he groaned in pain.

“Wh...where am I?” He questioned with a rather pitched voice. “The bag with the corpse where is it!?!

he panicked, and tried to look everywhere for his bag. He spotted the bag not far away from him. He sighed in relief, and ran to it’s direction

He checked the inside of the bag, which now was a body bag to find the body in it’s place. He was relieved, but also filled disgust and regret. Though he found himself in a forest just like the letter said. He had no other thoughts than to leave it as it is now.

As he wandered back into town with exhaustion, injured, tired and quite saddened by the fact he just killed someone, he wasted no time and went back to the hotel.

“What a day...” He whined, as he used his key. He turned the handle, and went inside. It was dark, breezy, and Pinkie Pie was surprisingly asleep with the blanket on the floor, he picked it up. Before he tucked her, he stared at her for a moment and smiled. He then tucked her in and smiled. “Good night, Pinkie” He wasted no time, and fell straight on his bed, planted his face first on the pillow
