spike its all bucked up

Spike had grown a lot since tirek died 7 years ago. He was 17 years old. He had grown from a small pudgy little dragon to a dragon as tall as Celestia. Which he means to say he grew to be 7 feet tall. His scales had turned to darker shade of purple and green. He started wearing disturbed apparel with black pants with a grey jacket. While he also got rid of his crush on rarity after her shooting him down. It took a while too be happy again but he got through it with help from twilight. He had grown to be incredibly muscular while he wasn't snowflake size. He was still more muscular than most.

He had taken to long walks during midnight something he grown to love. Recently during those walks he felt he was being watched. Which was crazy because no one was awake except him during midnight. A cracking came from behind him. He ignored it till he heard again and even closer.

"Who's there," he cried out looking around for whatever made that noise.

He started to shiver in fear of whatever was out there. Then hands appeared as if out of nowhere grabbing and pulling him down, with another hand covering his face with a chloroform covered towel. He tried to scream but all came out was a muffled yelp. Spots started to cover his eyes as falls into unconsciousness.

'Twilight, blue blood, anybody please help me,' he thought before closing his eyes.

________________________________________________

When he opened his eyes he found himself strapped to a bed and all his scales ripped out. He tried to scream only to notice he couldn't.

"Subject 16 is awake. Heartbeat higher than average activating small amount of the sedative. Heart beat averaging subject 16 is now docile and ready for testing," spoke the mechanical voice.

"Good let's explain why he's here," spoke another voice coming from behind the glass window.

"You and twenty other dragons have been chosen to become something more. You and the other subjects shall be injected with something we like to call the mutant factor. You and the others will most likely die from the injection alone. We also cut your voice box so no one can hear you scream," the gender less voice said with sadistic glee.

"Well let's get it over with. Start the experiment I want to see him squirm," s/he said.

He heard machines activate outside his vision. He saw needles start going towards his chest. He tried to breath fire only for nothing to happen. He started panicking trying to get away from the needles, but was failing miserably. The needles pushed into his body injecting the mutant factor into his body. He heard something snapping. He couldn't black out due to the sheer agony of injection and whatever snapped causing him even more pain.

He couldn't breathe, and he couldn't think all he could do is scream in his head. He finally felt the pain stop and the needles withdrawing after what felt like hours. He couldn't move all he could do was cry.

"Amazing! Subject 16, 17, and 18 are still alive after initial injection. We'll give them code names after the next test," s/he said in awe.

His eyes started to close only punched awake by a new pony. He was about six feet tall had neon green hair. He sneered at spike and told him to stay awake while he took him to his new cell. He started pushing him to the cell.

On the way there he heard things from the ponies in the cells like "they didn't belong here" "buck you mother buckers I'll kill for this" and "please someone save us" it hurt to hear their desperate cries for help. A feeling of hopelessness setting in.

"Welcome to hell this is your home now," he said to spike before closing the cell door. Spike felt a burning sensation in his throat. He found he had his voice back. He started screaming with the other prisoners for someone to save him.

blue bloods hatred burns like a thousand suns

Four months later

Blue blood is a mutant. His abilitys are superior reflexes, hard to pierce fur, and the ability to eat and mess with emotion and gain a power up from it. Nobody knows about his mutant abilitys and he liked it that way. He's six foot two and has a swimmers build and was 26 years old. He was friends/ brothers with spike until his disappearance. The search for spike only lasted for a week before they gave up on him. He called them on their bullshit search after spikes token funeral. He had become cold to anyone who talked to him especially the mane six and his aunts.

He had started hiring private investigators to find spike. All but one of them failed to find spike because he is still looking into it. He still paid the rest but he wasn't happy with their failure to find out what happened to spike. Today's the day of the gala yipee another day of acting like a pompous oaf. He puts on a blue bow tie for his tux.

'Stupid gala I've hated the gala since the element of generosity hanged off my arm like a gold digging whorse. Well let's get this over with,' he thought while sighing.

He walked out of his room sighing once more. How he loathes having to go but his aunt's told him to come. He can't deny the princesses orders. His family being the prince is a publicity stunt in order boost morale among males and that's it. His family had no power among the courts. They were basically the court jesters in his opinion. The one the people laughed at behind their back. He was at the doors. He opened the doors with no trouble opening it. As he walked into the gala he thought about the foreign affairs with the other species.

The Dragons are thinking about going to war with us again. I think its about missing teenage dragons. The griffins are going to war with the minotaurs and losing. Minotaurs are upping industry. The created something called guns. Which have been winning them the war. The changling empire have been apologizing for what the rogue changlings did ever since the invasion even though we said repeatedly that they didn't need too. He saw his aunts beckoning for him to come to them.

He started to come towards them only to feel a large amount of hate towards everyone here. He turned and saw a griffin screeching at everyone to back off. The griffin pulled off its vest and said no one gets too close to her. He started walking towards her raising his hands.

"Easy easy no ones going fight you," soothing her with his soothing voice. While absorbing her hatred with his powers to calm her.

"Why don't we talk this out," he said while taking even more hate from her and messing with emotions to make her feel horrible for what she had almost done.

"I...I," she stuttered before falling down bursting into tears and dropping the detonator. The guards rushing her and the detonator grabbing both while knocking the griffin out.

___________________________

He had run off after stopping the suicide bomber to regains control of himself, because he could lash out at anyone because his abilitys have down side as well as upsides. Absorbing hate made him stronger but made him want to lash out at everything. Happiness made him faster than he already was but made it harder to focus on one thing. Love and lust increases his charisma but if he absorbs to much he becomes incredibly arrogant and gains a god complex. Sadness increases his durability but made him emo enough that he allows people to try and kill him.

He roared and attacked the tree next to him. The tree nearly exploded from his punch. He calmed down after that enough to see what he just did. He looked around to see if anyone saw it. Seeing nobody there helped calm him down even more. He started walking back to his chambers. He hoped tomorrow would be better because he almost tried to kill the avatars of the elements of harmony. Which wouldn't help him at all.

death strikes

She has been tailing the prince since the failed bombing. It was supposed to be a test for the main six, to see what they would do to stop the bomber. Only for prince Blue Blood stop her. She also saw him punch that tree which is no longer there.

'How fascinating, he shouldn't be able to do half the things he did. He should be helpless little colt whose only use is as baby maker,' she thought.

She stopped following when he entered his bedroom. She turned around and walked away. She had found what she was looking for. She teleported to the dungeons where the griffin she hired was. She looked around for where she was and saw she was in a corridor. She looked around some more to see if there were any guards around. Seeing none she started walking down the corridor to her destination. She found cell holding the griffin who was still conscious.

"You failed your mission you were supposed kill the main six along with you," she stated while starring with cold green eyes.

"I I I'm s-sorry I failed you deathstroke. I don't know what went wrong," she stuttered.

"You know the price for failure," she stated while grabbing the griffins neck and snapping it. Dropping the dead griffin body. She activated the body burning spell that she had for moments like this. Teleporting once more to her hide out. She started panting with exhaustion from all the spell casting she did today.

"Note to self get better magic reserves," she gasped. She looked around her hide out seeing large amount of television screen and her chair. Started to walk towards the place to take off her armor and put it away. She took off her mask first. It was black on the right side while orange on the right side with two white eyeholes. She smirked as she put it on the mannequin face. She started taking off the rest of the armor. The armor looks like slade from teen titans.

"Prince blue blood, how interesting you are. You're supposed to a pompous oaf whose useless, but you are anything but that. I will find out what you are hiding and use it against you," she says while putting blue pants to cover her muscular legs(like runner legs). Grabbed the red shirt covering her hour glass figure and her c-cup size breasts.

She started walking towards the door after putting on her tennis shoes. As she walked into her house her butler wintergreen greeted her. He asked how her day was and she said it was 'interesting'. He asked how the mission went.

"It failed, but in that crushing failure I found something interesting. I found someone who interests me," she said.

"I see who is this mysterious person," Wintergreen asked.

"Prince blue blood. Take this recording and put the flash drive in the computer and you'll see what I mean," she said.

-----------several days later pov change to blue blood-----------

Prince Blue Blood was having bad week. It seemed that he became the universe's butt monkey when he wasn't looking, because the crap that was happening had to have come from a higher power. His toilet exploded while he was in the shower. Then the servant holding the super strength coffee dropped it all on his lap(the servant told their family later on that he danced like mc hammer while screaming like a opera house singer). Than he found out that they turned most of his clothes pink on accident. His PlayStation 4 burst into flames, and the worst thing to happen was that his father was sent to the hospital.

As he rushed to the hospital he started to pray that his father would live long enough that he could say could say goodbye. He noticed that he was close to the hospital. He ran into the hospital rushing to the nurse at the desk.

"What room is Crimson Blood in," he asked while gasping for breath, because he ran from castle to here.

"Room 14 the last door on the left," she said while pointing to the right.

"Thank you," he shouted as ran down the hall.

As he opened the door to the room he saw his father with bandages covering his body. He slowly walked to his father while grabbing a chair and sat down next to his father bed. He clasp his hands together and started to pray that his father would be ok. Crimson's eyes started to open he looks at his son.

"Hey now there's no need to pray for my sake. You know I don't care for religion," Crimson said.

"I know that you don't but that doesn't mean I don't. I want my father to go to heaven even if you don't believe in it," Blue Blood said smiling sadly.

"Listen you need to know who did this to me. I already know I'm dying." He said

"Don't talk like that you'll live through this," Blue Blood said tears going down his face.

"Don't be sad my son promise me you'll stop the person who did this," he said

"Who could have done this to you dad. I promise to stop them from ever doing this again," Blue Blood promised.

"It was fancy pants your friend," he said wheezing.

Blue Blood could only star in shock at what he just heard. His father started to cough up blood after telling Blue Blood the truth. Blue Blood pushed the help to call for help. The doctors rushed in to see what the problem was. One of the doctors told him to get out so they could focus on the patient.

________four hours later________

Four hours, four nerve wracking hours that was how long he has been sitting there. Waiting for news of his father. The door opens as one of the doctors came out. He started walking towards Blue Blood and said he was sorry for his loss. Blue Blood felt something inside him snap. He started to roar in rage all metal for four miles started to crumble in to its self. The metal starts to float towards him and form armor around him.

"Fancy Pants. I will find you," he screamed in rage.

(For those that are worried that I made Blue BBlood to strong don't worry he lost his other powers to gain this power up.)

chapter four Lunas victory, Blue Bloods loss, and deathstrokes gain

_____________ Four minutes ago luna's pov ______________

Luna was a tall mare about Six foot eight which means she's almost as tall as Celestia. Her fur was dark blue. She had an hour glass figure with dd breasts and a bubble butt. When she returned as Luna she decided to do something with her life. So she did some soul searching and decided to travel the world and learn under the greatest martial artists. Learning everything she could from them until her body was in peak physical condition. She also learned under a young man named Walter Kovac on how to find clues, and when she left him she wished him luck in finding that missing girl.

When she returned home she was welcomed home with opened arms and smiles all around. Her sister Celestia had gotten her a butler whose nickname is Alfred. He is a great boon to her work as the princess and in other things. He had been sworn to keep her secrets and anything he might see from everyone(including Celestia). She decided to fight crime to make up for all those she killed as nightmare moon. Some of the nobility acted more like mob bosses from the movies. This was mostly Cobblepot and Fancy pants who act that way the rest act like thugs. That was just another reason to fight crime.

She had Alfred find a person willing to make a armored suit and never tell anyone what they made. They also don't know who they made it for. The suit had multiple features to it. The most advanced part is the invisibility to everything except the naked eye. The second is an illusion spell woven into it that makes her look smaller, about five foot eight and made her look like black color thestral. The third is an ability to see in thermal and something she likes to call detective mode. The fourth was that magic didn't work on her but the downside was she couldn't use most of her magic except telekinesis.

Another con was that it was a bit restricting when ever she wears it to fight crime. The magazines have taken to call her batmare the urban legend that attacks criminals. She liked the name they chose for her alter ego so much that she started to call herself that when she wore the armor. As luna finished remembered the tether she had on it so she could teleport onto her at any time.

Celestia and her were with the court listening to Fancy Pants give a rousing speech on how to help the poor(cough his pockets cough). The court seemed to really like it like the sheep that they were. Until the place started to rumble. The court thinking it was an earthquake started to panic and run towards the princess except Fancy Pants who hid under a desk thinking it was a smarter idea. The right wall burst open showering them in rubble. Fancy Pants started running towards the princesses, but before he got to them a metal pole was stabbed into his knees. While he screamed in agony the the armored being floated towards him.

"Sister distract the being while I teleport the court out of here," Luna whispered to Celestia. Celestia nodded and blasted the one of the metal poles that was about pierce Fancys skull. While Celestia distracted the armored being Luna teleported the court and Fancy Pants to a safe location. She then teleported her armor onto her body. She went through her belt and found one of her newest items the grappler. She looked at the armored being and started noticing that it had an uncovered horn making it an armored unicorn. She shot the grappler at its legs and pulled it towards the ground. She then proceeded to jump on it and break its horn then grabbed it and punched hard enough to knock it out. Thankfully the armor was made of weak metals that it broke under her punch.

Otherwise she would have hurt her hand punching it no him out. The armor started to fall apart revealing who it was. It was an unconscious Blue Blood. The shock of finding out it was him trying to kill them was only topped by his ability to control metal without his horn. She teleported her armor switching back her clothes. She turned towards her sister who was staring with a look that said will talk about this later. The guards finally came rushing in the room spears at the ready to fight whatever was attacking the princesses. The guards put down the spears seeing that the princesses already did the job.

The guards grabbed Blue Blood asking the sisters what to do. Celestia told them to grab the cuffs that stop ponies from using unusual abilities, and to get a doctor to test his psyche. While they did that the sisters started walking to the new hole in the wall.

--------Pov shift deathstroke-----------

She stared at the televisions smirking at what she had seen. Her butler handing her tea to her. She grabbed the cup while rewinding televisions to Luna basically unmasking Blue Blood. She stared at his unconscious face with obsessive need to see how he looks.

"I told you installing those cameras in the courtroom would be worth the hassle. Didn't I say we might need a camera in there so we wouldn't miss anything. What we have seen is enough vindication for me to you I was right. Now then winter did you see what Luna did. She knocked him out cold with just one punch," she said.

"Yes. I saw what she did. What is it that you want me to do. Do you want me to free him," he said

"No. We will free him later after he has time to grieve. For now we continue the plan," she said with a smile towards him.

--------time skip pov shift helping heart-------------

Helping Heart was a short mare with blue fur and red hair. She was a rather outspoken mare when it came gender equality believing that males belong in the kitchen. She was also the best psychologist in canterlot. She was called in see if prince Blue Blood was sound in the mind. She clenched her hands on the papers in nervousnes. She was still a bit scared of him even when the guards say he can't do anything due to being handcuffed to the desk. With his powers being suppressed by the handcuffs.

She opened the door seeing him just sitting there. Moving the chair in front of him as she sat down she shuffled her paper.

"Hello I'm Helping heart. I'm here to evaluate you, and see if you are mentally well to go to jail. So let's start with why you did what you did," she said.

-------------two hours later---------

She walked out of the room and sighed. Walking towards the sisters she noticed they seemed very worried. As she stopped in front of them she also noted their eyes were bloodshot like they haven't been sleeping well.

"So what's your verdict is he mentally well," Celestia asked?

"He is not mentally well at all. I asked a series of questions, like what do you feel knowing that a family died during your rampage. His response was that they were in his way so he killed them. They weren't in his way they were just having a picnic in the park. I ask him what he thought when he was stopped by batmare. He said it was a minor setback, and that when he escapes he'll kill her and everyone who gets in his way of Fancy Pants. In my opinion he needs to be sent to that insane asylum just opened up. You know arkham asylum," she stated.

They nodded at her as she walked away from them.

----------Pov shift blue blood----------

They thought they had won because she took his horn off and these handcuffs cut him off from his abilities. He will escape and he will kill batmare along with Fancy Pants. He will destroy them ,no annihilate them once he escapes prison. Two female guards swaggered into the room smirking at him like they won the super bowl. The one on the left had blue eyes and hair. he decided to call her bitch 1. The other had green hair and lavender eyes. He called her bitch 2.

"Hey guess what I heard you're going to arkham asylum a place that is becoming known for being inescapable. Even for freaks like you," 1 said.

"You mean that place that holds deadshot the world's not so deadly assassin," 2 said with false shock.

"You know what else I heard there's not even going to a trial for you. Ya freak," 1 said with a sneer

"Hey does that mean this might be his last day here. Well let's make it memorable to him. Remember hit his body can't have anyone seeing the bruises," 2 sneered.

---------Two hours later---------

Those two go on the list of people he's going kill when he gets out from wherever he's going to be. That beating hurt. He was now making a mental list of people he was going to kill when he got out. He had a feeling the list would be full people by the time he escapes. Time to go to sleep he thought only for the door to open again. The person who opened the door was the private investigator he hired to find spike. His name was looking glass. He was a black haired, brown fur, six foot seven, and blue eyes.

"Why are you here," said Blue Blood.

"I'm here to tell you that I found who took spike and I want to know what you want me to do with this information," said looking glass.

"Give this information to the princesses. They will probably get the main six on it," he said

--------------two days later Luna pov---------------

It's been a day since Blue Blood was sent to the asylum. She can't help but think this is only the beginning. Celestia was still in shock at the fact Blue Blood had attacked them and that she had to send him to the asylum. So Luna took over the day court for Celestia so she could recover. So far no one has come for day court then doors opened and a person that didn't look like a whining noble came in. As he walked up to h pulled down his collar to show a golden torque. Her widened with shock at seeing it. She turned to her guards and to leave and cancel the day court.

"So a drood comes to this castle. Why have you come here your family are forbidden to come here," she said with contempt.

"My family and I have made amends to Celestia for my family's wrong doing. I am here because I have information that you need. By the way call me by the name Looking Glass I'm not here on official family business. I'm here to give you information that the former prince paid me to get," he said.

"And what information is that," she asked?

"Where spike is," he stated.

"What,"she said as she sat there in shock at the fact that Blue Blood went behind their backs.

"Why did he do that," she asked?

"He said it was because you gave up before a month was over. When he knew for a fact that you didn't do everything they could to find spike," he stated.

"Tell me everything you know," she said.

Before he could tell her anything a guard barged yelling that the main six have disappeared. With no clue as to where they were.

"Get my sister here now," she shouted.

-------------pov shift to main six-----------------

They woke up blindfolded and gagged while strapped to something metalic. They can hear a non gender voice shouting at someone.

"I said to kidnap people no one would miss, not someone people would immediately noticed was missing. You know what fine put them under and inject the x-gene in them and lets see what happens," He/she said.

They felt a prick on their neck and something being injected, and everything went dark.
