Spike suddenly awoke from his well-deserved nap, and stretched his legs after he got out of bed.

"Oh yeah, I slept like a true baby dragon." His aromach suddenly growled, abd he went to the kitchen to have some leftover gems that Rarty left out for him. He had a decent meal with those gems and made a loud burp.

Aftrr he was finished, Spike noticed something odd on the sky through the window. Curious, he went downstairs and slowly opened the front door, and saw that the sky was indeed blood red instead of blue. It somehow made it look evil in Ponyville, and Spike felt like something was wrong. Very wrong.

He honestly couldn't really figure out why the sky just went from blue to blood red somehow. "Is this a Lunar eclipse?" He thought. "I hope that Twilight and the gang come back home soon. Maybe princess Celestia and Luna can help out with this." He hoped.

Spike also hoped that e was probably dreaming or having a nightmare from eating a bad pepper last night.

Slowly closing the door, he decided to just wait around some more, and suddenly grew bored overtime. Finally, he went back outside again, and saw that many of the town's ponies were having red, glowing eyes woth no pupils.

"Wow, now that is something you don't se every day." He thought.

Discord suddenly poofed up and spooked him by surprise. "It certainly isn't, Spike."

"What do you mean?" Now he was becoming a little scared the way Discord was talking to him "wait, did yoy have something to do with this?"

"No. I assure you I have nothing to do with this. Besides, if it was me, you would know."

"Fair enough." The baby dragon agreed, realizing the master of chaos was right. "What is going on here then?"

"There isn't much time to explain right now. We have to get out of here before they find us."

"Who's they?"

All of a sudden, the lights grew dark in the room and right behind the two were Twilight and the others with evil grins and their red glowing eyes. “Spike, we’re home.” Twilight sang evilly. The baby dragon gulped and didn't exactly know what to think of this.

“Guys?” Spike Said. “Are... are you okay?”

“Oh we feel awesome.” Rainbow Said wickedely.

Spike knew that deep down inside of him, something was very wrong. Discord was just as scared, but he kept his act together. “Oh no.” He Said. “They found us.”

“Spike, you look a little cold.” Said Fluttershy. All of them walked towards Spike, still smiling evilly.

“Wait, Guys, get back.” Spike warned. But they were still walking towards him. “I mean it.” He sounded more scared and anxious as they were coming closer and closer to himmand Discord.

“No!” Said The master of chaos. “Get away from him!” Then he conjured a magical ball of energy and hurled it at them, causing all the brainwashed mares to be blown away from impact like an explosion.

“Discord, whatbare you doing?!” Spike Said. “Those are our friends.”

“I’m sorry Fluttershy.” The Master of Chaos thought out loud. “But it was for your own good.” He felt like shedding a tear about having to stun her and the others like that [Mostly Fluttershy Of course). "Those are not our friends anymore, Spike." he said to the baby dragon. "They have been brainwashed by a terrible, evil mare that was defeated by Princess Celestia and Luna long ago."

"Was that Roseblood everypony was talking about?"

"Yes. She has returned." the master of chaos said gravely. Spike was now scared shitless after hearing that grave news. He was even worried that he would become brainwashed like his friends now were.

All of a sudden, Discord was suddenly blown away by some magical beam, and flew to a wall, hitting his head, causing him to go stunned and unconscious. "Discord!" Spike exclaimed. He looked at the direction where the beam came from, and he was horrified to see Princess Celestia and Princess Luna brainwashed like this. Both their eyes were glowing a blood red like the Mane Six, and Starlight glimmer were, who they were standing right back up.

"Your- your majesties?" Spike said in horror. He took a few steps back in horror, and suddenly tripped backwards, and crawled back. "Is that you?"

"Of course it's us." said Celestia. "Why be afraid?" she was trying to sound as sweet and motherly, but that was just masking her brainwashed, evil persona. "It's okay." the evil grin came back to her. "You look cold."

"You look like you have seen a ghost." Luna added

Spike stopped when he backed away to his friends, looking down on him with those dark, evil smiles on their faces.

"Join us, Spike." said Rainbow Dash. "You will love this new feeling."

"What new feeling?"

"No worries, no sad thoughts, no cares in the whole world of Equestria around ya." Rainbow said

"It's so easy, Spike." Applejack made an evil chuckle. "You will love it when you become part of us."

"You'll do it for me, will you, Spikey-Whikey?" Rarity asked him. "It feels good to be evil, you will love this feeling."

"We won't hurt you." said Fluttershy. "Everything will be okay." despite what they were all saying, those evil looks on their faces did not go away.

"And we can all throw a Roseblood, the new evil leader of Equestria party." Pinkie remarked.

"No." Spike said. "Guys, this isn't you. You've all been turned evil, please, you gotta snap out of this. Your bonds are stronger than this, the same thing with our bonds." and he looked at Princess Celestia and Luna again. "Your majesties, you're more powerful than Roseblood, please, you gotta fight it in you."

"Nonsense." said princess Celestia. "Nopony can take on our glorious and powerful leader, Roseblood." and she made an evil chuckle.

The baby dragon thought that since the princess' have also been turned to the dark side, he believed that there was no hope for him, or to save Equestria at all.

"Yes Spike, they're right." said Starlight Glimmer. "Just give up and join us." and they all began laughing evilly. Spike was on the spot, he didn't know what to do, but then, he had an idea. He took a deep breath and blew out some green fire to blind all of them and make a run for it out of the castle. Spike ran as fast as he could on those small legs of his, and then saw many other residents of Ponyville turned evil. Cheerilee, Granny Smith, Big Mac, Mayor Mare, The Cutie Mark Crusaders, pretty much many of the residents have all turned evil.

"Spike, there you are." said Cheerilee. "Why are you leaving town?" in a more sinister voice, she said "Do join us and everything will be okay, now that Equestria belongs to Queen Roseblood."

"Eeyup." said Big Mac before letting out an evil chuckle.

Spike was about to run away in a different direction, but then he bumped into somepony. He looked up and saw Roseluck, Junebug, Trixie, Bulk Biceps, and others among the small posse in front of him.

"Leaving so soon?" said Roseluck. "You're missing out on a great opportunity like this."

"It's no use resisting, Spike." said Trixie.

"Just give it up. Resistance is futile." Junebug added.

Spike ran away from them with all his stamina. Something blocked his path, and it was the cake babies, both laughing evilly with red eyes glowing, and it forced Spike to try and run in a different direction, and then Mr and Mrs Cake appeared out of nowhere, trying to stop him from escaping as well.

"I don't think so, dearie." said Mrs Cake.

"Oh come on!" Spike said. The baby dragon just ran in yet another direction and then Cadence and Shining Armor appeared looking evil with red, glowing eyes.

"Why you so serious, Spike?" asked Shining evilly. "It is a very cool feeling."

"Everything will be just fine once you surrender and join all of us." Cadence added. Flurry Heart, their baby, also turned evil, and giggled in a sinister way. He was being crowded around the family and all the other Ponyville residents that were brainwashed crowded around him.

"No! get away from me!" Spike begged, but it was no use, they were all closing in on him, and they were going to make him next. Spike closed his eyes, and curled up into a ball in complete fear. Before, they could all even touch him however, a blinding light appeared out of nowhere, causing all of the brainwashed ponies and princess' to be stunned like a flashbang just appeared out of nowhere.

The baby dragon looked up and saw Discord and Zecora coming to save him. Turns out Discord made a recovery and was up and awake again.

"Don't worry, Spike. Fear not!" said the zebra heroically. "We will save you from this evil lot! Discord, get us out of here, I don't want to severely hurt everypony we love most dear."

"Got it." and with a snap of a finger, he poofed him, and the other two out of Ponyville to safety, out in a cave. Spike was relieved to see that not everypony was turned evil, for he saw Pip, Lyra, Bon Bon, Rumble, Cloudchaser, Flitter, Thunderlane, Rumble, Sprinkle Medley, and a few others that Discord probably saved before saving Spike. Among the others were Braeburn, Derpy, Twinkleshine, Moon Dancer, Fancy Pants, Sunburst, Green Jewel, and a few others from other cities and towns in Ponyville.

"Are you alright, Spike?" asked Discord. "I was so worries about you."

"No." Spike admitted. "My best friends have been turned evil by this Roseblood, and the princess have been turned evil, too!" then he broke down into tears, curled into a ball. The others went up to him and try to comfort him as possibly as they could. This is definitely a new omen coming about Equestria.

Author's Note

Spike just survived a scary encounter. Almost all his friends have been turned evil by the sinister Roseblood. What will he and the other sparred ones do now?
