Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwilight woke up early now since it was her duty to raze the sun she gave met Luna as she always did gave her kiss on the cheek and trotted down stairs and made her self a cup of coffee she never had breakfast since she found it too early. when Twilight had properly woken up she made her way back up the stairs to the balcony were she razed the sun once she had razed the sun twilight took a long look over the hills in the distance Twilight's face went pale and sweaty.
Spike and Scootaloo were woken up by Trixie and Starlight glimmer bursting into the room "SPIKE!" Scootaloo pulls the blanket up more while Spike fell off the bed.
"Why is it every PONY BARDGES IN?" Scootaloo asks no pony in particular while Spike picks him self off the floor.
"You better have a good reason for bursting in here" Spike tells the mares sitting down next to Scootaloo on the bed.
"King sombra's here!" the mare's tell Spike in unison.
"WHAT!" Spike looks at Scootaloo then Scootaloo baby bump.
"Yes but the problem is twilight and Luna are too busy getting the army ready no pony knows what's happening too the children the old ponies and the mare's that cant fight you were the only one we could talk to" Starlight frowns.
Spike thought about this for while when it him the tunnels under the castle that lead far away from ponyville "get all the ponies that need to be taken out the away and meet me at the library and put your armour on, oh don't forget princess Cadence" the mares nod and leave.
"What are you going to do?" Scootaloo asks
"Im going to go get Sweetie Belle and Applebloom come on" Spike starts running towards the guest bedroom when Scootaloo stops out of breath Spike noticed this and stopped Running as well.
"Oh yeah pregnant sorry" Spike scratches the back of his head Scootaloo give Spike an annoyed glare they walk the rest of the way. when they reach the door spike was about to knock on the door until Scootaloo smacks his hand out the way.
"Buck knocking we always get ponies walk in on us so". Scootaloo opens burst opens the door to see Sweetie Belle's head in between Applebloom's legs.
"RIGHT GIRLS AAAAAAAAAAAAA" Scootaloo screams in shock and shuts the door Spike gives Scootaloo a smug look.
"Do you think we should of knocked" Scootaloo glares back they hear the door open with very angry Applebloom.
"Why didn't yah knock" Spike felt guilty and stepped in.
"Well she was getting annoyed with you keep walking in on us so she thought that she do the same" Applebloom started to feel guilty until spike spoke up again.
"It doesn't matter now king sombra army is here we need to go" Applebloom runs back in to tell Sweetie belle they both come out of the room.
"Where do we go?" Sweetie Belle asks.
"Follow me" spike tells them as they are brought to the library.
They waited for about half an hour when eventually Trixie and Starlight show up with all the ponies that need to go far away including Cadence with her baby flurry heart "spike what's going on" Cadence asks Spike pulls a book that open a secret door on the floor.
"Your going to get far away from here Trixie I need you to go first" Trixie looks puzzled at what spike asks.
"But Trixie thought she was going to be apart of your team" Spike sighs.
"They are going to need protection and some pony who is great and powerful" Trixie ponders this.
"The great and powerful Trixie agrees" Trixie starts to trot down the steps.
"Everypony follow Trixie" Cadence and the other ponies start trotting down the steps.
Spike turns to face Sweetie belle, Applebloom and Scootaloo "you three as well" Sweetie belle and Applebloom started to walk towards the secret door until Scootaloo refuses.
"No I wont leave you Spike".
"You've got to if not for you then for the baby's Scoot please for me" Spike strokes Scootaloo's face softly.
"But what if I don't see you again Spi" Scootaloo started to get all teary eyed and started sniff very heavily.
"Don't say that you will se me again, the thought of you and the baby will help me to win okay" Spike kisses Scootaloo deeply this kiss was based out of pure love not lust or hunger just love Scootaloo trots up too starlight glimmer.
"You better look after my Spike" Scootaloo orders Starlight.
"Yes miss" given spike one last glance she trots down the stairs with her best friends.
"Starlight" Spike calls her name to get her attention.
"Yes Spike" Starlight answers.
"look after my mare" Spike asks.
"But whose going to look after you" spike thinks about and laughs.
"Im going to be fine, Trixie will be the one that needs help" Starlight salutes and gallops down after the group of ponies. Spike puts the book back closing the secret door and runs off to go put his armour on.
(down in the secret tunnels) Starlight catches up to Scootaloo she turns to see Starlight "what are you doing down here, why aren't you with Spike?" Scootaloo asks "he sent me down to look after you" Scootaloo Kicks the ground.
"Of course he did stubborn drake" they continued to walk down.

Spike heads to the armoury and puts his armour and heads out to find Twilight in the top of the tower looking at the army on the outside just waiting for king sombra ponies to attack.
"Hi Spike" Twilight knew spike saw behind her.
"Hey Twi how are you?" Twilight sighed.
"To be honest with you Spike im scared, im scared of losing Luna, im scared of losing my baby and im scared of losing you, I mean as soon as we see king Sombra your off to fight him and save the day hopefully and Fluttershy and Rarity are down in medic bay Applejack is down making weapons with her brother big mac and im well all alone" Twilight confesses.
"Twilight im gonna be fine I have magic beyond that of alicorn and isn't Pinkie will be here to keep you company" Spike tries to reassures her.
"I know you've had the training but that isn't all you know, and yes pinkie is going to be here but that's not all Rainbow is down the amongst all those ponies im just not sure that she's in her right mind huff, anyway where are Starlight and Trixie?" Twilight sighs.
"Um well you see you were focused on your army that you forgot about the ones that cant fight so I use the secret passage to get them out I sent Cadence, sweetie belle, Applebloom and ugh Scoot's as well I sent Starlight and Trixie to look after them" Spike explains.
"Of course you did, you know what?" Twilight asks "what?" Twilight smiles "I think your heart is too big for you" twilight hugs spike.
Spike was about to reply when he was interrupted by Twilight "they've started their attack" Spike looks over at the battlefield to see the two groups off ponies clash.
"Any sign of sombra?" Spike asks hoping that he could end this quickly.
"no not yet, he must be saving something special for you" Spike gulps at the thought that sombra has something planned for him.

Rainbow sharpened her spear as she saw shinning armour as he trotted over to her "captain" Rainbow stands to attention.
"Stand down Rainbow how are you doing" Shinning armour asks worried.
"Yeah im fine captain just ready to kick some evil flank" Rainbow replies.
"Are you sure? I remember what you told me you joined the army because you wanted to get away from your ex"
Rainbow sighed "Im really " suddenly Luna shouts in her royal canterlot voice.
"COLTS, THE ENEMY IS AHEAD GET INFORMATION".
"You heard her come get information" Shinning orders, Rainbow puts her helmet on and gets in line they start marching from out of the castle and the shields as Rainbow waited for orders she started to think about Rarity and the times when they were happy. Tears started to stream down here face she was nocked out of day dream when the pony next her hit in the arm it was her buddy Steel gust he was cool to Rainbow even though he fancied her he seemed upset when she told him that she liked mares not colts.
"Hey are you okay?", Rainbow wiped her eyes dry.
"Yeah just something in my eye" rainbow lied.
"You can tell me anything, come on, what's up?" Steel Gust asked.
"Just thinking about my ex" Rainbow lowered her head.
"Oh, ouch, well I'm here if you wanna talk" Rainbow looked up at Steel.
"Thanks gust" Rainbow looked back down at the floor.
"Heh no problem" Rainbow head shot up when she heard Shinning Armour.
"Get ready" here it is, Rainbow thought, the moment is here no pony could prepare you for this.
"ATTACK" and before they knew it they were running at the enemy.
Multiple green beams come flying out from behind the hills and one big red beam right in the middle they hit the shields, Break into tiny pieces, like glass hitting the ground. thousands of changelings follow soon after, with the Twilight army busy with King Sombra's to deal with the changelings attacking Ponyville. Spike, Pinkie, Applejack and Rarity came together to fight of as many changeling's as they could to protect as many ponies as they could.
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Rainbow beat one pony down one after the other throwing a spear into that had made a jump on Steel Gust, snapping her spear in half in the process changelings tried to gang up on Rainbow spin around with her metal wing stretched out blinding the changelings. She jumps on each changeling stabbing them in the stomach with her wing killing them.
Rainbow turns her head to see pony she turns around bucking the pony in the face launching him in to an enemy's spear killing him. She looks across the battlefield to see four ponies she recognised but they look different they more looked more hurt she looks at her wing then at the four ponies "its them it has to be them" they've seen her Rainbow's anger goes though the roof.
Rainbow charges at the ponies she jump's turning with her metal wing spread out cutting pony on the arm Rainbow looks at the cut smiling feeling smug. the pony looks down at his cut and laughs "is that it your going to have to do better then that" Rainbow was taken back by how deep his voice was.
Rainbow starts galloping towards them throwing a leg the pony blocks her leg hitting her in the stomach throwing her backwards landing on the Rainbow forgot how strong they were "how are you guys this strong?" Rainbow asks while putting her hoof over her stomach.
"Now Rainbow Dash you will come with us king Sombra needs you" Rainbow starts getting back on her hooves.
"Im sorry but why would I do that" the pony sighed "get her" the other three ponies behind him start charging at her nocking her down until she cant get back up.
A changeling who had been waiting out grab Rainbow Dash and took her away behind a hill where king Sombra had been waiting for Rainbow Dash. "Your majesty" the changeling drops rainbow on floor and bows.
"go back to battle" the changeling nods and flies off "you will be my key to beating Spike."

Fluttershy had joined Twilight getting out the way of the fighting that was happening "Are you okay?" Fluttershy asks.
"No Fluttershy im not okay all I can do is sit here and watch" Twilight starts pacing up and down.
Twilight watch the battle though binoculars she started to worry as she couldn't find any sight of Rainbow "I cant find Rainbow Dash anywhere?"
"Shes gotta be out there some where?" Fluttershy asks, Twilight takes a double look over the hill and Twilight froze at what she saw.
"Oh my gosh Rainbow" Twilight said making Fluttershy look at Twilight.
"What's wrong is Rainbow hurt?" Fluttershy asks worried.
Twilight sends Spike note "SPIKE! your up, I see king Sombra but he's got Rainbow!" Twilight was almost in tears.
As soon as Spike gets the note he takes flying high into air looking for King Sombra, he could see King Sombra on the hill behind the battle using magic holding up a very weak beat up looking Rainbow dash. "im going to KILL HIM!" Spike growls before taking off like Rainbow's Sonic Rain boom.
Spike lands on the hill making a crater around him "hand her over" Spike demands.
"No I don't think so" king sombra gets takes a spear and stabs it right though Rainbows chest killing her dead.
"NOOOOO!.....you'll pay for that" Spike grips his claw in anger.
king sombra laughs "I doubt it" suddenly Spike breaths out fire king Sombra block it with a bubble shield.
"You'll have to do better then that" Spike starts running at Sombra his claws light up with green fire, king sombra was ready with a counter attack spike launches him self at him sombra he's claws in a in fist ready to hit him at last minute teleports behind him hitting sombra in the face catching him off guard.
Sombra falls to the floor from the unexpected punch "How was that" Spike sends an energy beam from his fore head king sombra teleports out the he spears flying at spike he block the spears with a shield. With Spike distracted sombra teleports behind and bites Spike in the shoulder luckily spikes scales a tough Spike grabs sombra from behind him and throws him into a big stone.
Sombra instantly gets back and Charges at Spike, Spike tries to doge Sombra attack instead Sombra's horn slashes Spike from the cheek up to his forehead on the left side of his face luckily Sombra missed Spikes eye. Spike pins Sombra down His claws set on fire and repeatedly beats him "(spike hits sombra) that's for Celestia, (spike hits him again) that's for discord, (the fire burns the hardest of all) and that's for Rainbow".
Sombra starts to bleed heavily "NOW!" and before Spike knew sombra had teleported away spike looked all around him to see if he could see him but he couldn't. ponies from pony vile surrounded him he saw celestia and Luna, Twilight and all her friends even Rainbow dash he saw Sweetie belle and Applebloom even his pregnant fiancé Scootaloo.
"What's going on is the battle over did we win?" Spike asks confused Rainbow steps forward.
"Why did you let him kill me Spike why didn't you save me" Rainbow asks.
"I couldn't im sorry Rainbow I tried."
everypony spoke at once "and now we died spike because of you, because you couldn't save us". It clicked in spike mind his friends would never say that to him.
"They are all changelings" spike thought then I know the exacted pony whose behind him. Spike claw out grabbing him around the neck his claw set on fire again all the changelings run in fear. Spike pulls Sombra to the ground his neck started to burn "NO, come back you cowards" king sombra calls out but he could feel the burn on his neck get stronger.
"I must full fill my master task" but Sombra voice had given up.
"Whose your master? SOMBRA TELL ME!" Spike shouts with no reply Spike fury burned knowing he had destroyed king sombra's voice. He snaps king sombra's neck king him dead "I guess we'll find out". Spike eyes go wide as Remembers Rainbow and runs over too her quickly seeing her neck had been snapped knowing he couldn't save her Spike drops to his knees "im-im sorry dash... im so, so sorry I tried" Spike began to cry cradling Rainbow dash tightly sobbing hard.
After that the spell on king sombra's troops broke and the Changelings ran away now leader less and alone leaving a wrecked and damaged ponyville behind, Spike grabbed Rainbow's dead body and carried her back to Twilights castle. when Spike entered the castle everypony was there waiting to congratulate Spike Their face fell when they saw who Spike was carrying.
Twilight and the others including Luna and Sweetie belle, Applebloom and Scootaloo gathered around Spike dropped to his knees he started to cry "I-I tried t-to save her b-but I couldn't im so sorry" Luna gave Spike a sympathetic smile and took Rainbow off of Spike. Scootaloo ran over to Spike he cried into Scootaloo Shoulder she rubbed the back of her head to calm him down.

Later that night
Spike woke up he had nightmare he saw Scootaloo sleeping peacefully Spike slipped out of bed and walked out side to the balcony "Im a screw up, I could of saved her I hope sombra's rotting in hell right now, I should of died instead of her."
"SPIKE SPARKLES!" Scootaloo made Spike jump "don't you ever say that you did everything you could to save Rainbow you even said it your self there was nothing you could do stop beating your self up" Scootaloo hugs spike.
"I know but......oh I don't know im going for a walk" with that Spike walked around Ponyvile, as he walked around what was left of Ponyville he saw families camped outside the rubble of their houses. Spike walk so far into the everfree forest and sat down on log and thought about the events that happened today and couldn't help but feel guilt.
"Good evening Spike how are you this night?" Luna lands down in front of spike.
"Im not great Princess, I-I cant help but feel guilty about Rainbow and Ponyvile" Spike admits.
"Spike I've lost ponies the way you have and let me tell you its not easy, but you going keep going and you live on and remember the ones we lost and you cant do everything you are only one dragon you did what was right" Luna tell spike.
"Thank you Princess Luna that's really helped me out" Spike hugs Luna.
"Think nothing Spike and please call me Luna" Spike nods.
"Anyway Spike I have something important to tell you, me and Twilight talked about this tonight, she told me to find you, we've decided to make you a Prince."
