Untold Evil

20 years later....

In a new founded Equestria, our new King has decreed that we are to forget our old rulers and embrace the he has given us of free charge. To be loyal in every aspect of our lives. But some just don't follow blindly in the darkness.

The sound of yelling down stairs wakes me up from my sleep. When that happens, I usually try to find a way to sneak by my parents' constant feuds with each other, so using my magic, I fly out the window into the streets of once Ponyvile. After landing on the ground safely, I search for my best friend, Butter Paste. Since I automatically know my way around Ponyvile it was not hard finding the orange coat and cream white maned earth pony stallion in waltzing around his bakery,that used to belong to Mr. and Mrs. Cakes, but they fled Ponyvile when Lord Destroyer took over. He didn't notice me until I was right up against the island in the kitchen.

I must have startled him because he yelped jumping up at least a foot into the air at my presence. The pan in his mouth clattered to the floor in the process pf his little episode. He turned around to face me. "Oh, hello there Mint Crystal. What can I make you today?" Butter asks.

"I would just like your special for today, Butters." I reply back.

He smiled before picking up the he dropped. "Okay, one order of Butter Cake come right up." Butter quickly went to work with baking.

After a while, he finishes the butter cake and I delightfully ate it. I just love anything with butter on it. It makes everything taste so much better. "Are your parents fighting again?" Butter asks cleaning the kitchen of the mess he made.

I paused slightly. "yeah, but it's fine. They fight like that all that time. Even before all this mayhem. it just only got worse....."

Butter takes a break from cleaning to trot over to my seat with a sad expression of knowing. "Yeah, I know that feeling a bit too well. Wanting to from my parent's problems. But, we live in a different world now, and there is-" A sudden strange noise and 'thud' came from outside. Both Butter and I froze at the noise, we went outside to investigate. As soon as I got through the front door I see a baby dragon on top of the front patio. He looked to be cut, some likely stabbed, through something very deeply. The very sight of the poor dragon's state made me a bit queasy Fortunately unconscious, he was still breathing but only barely.

When Butter caught eye of his condition he sped to the nearest trash can and threw up the condiments in his stomach, but I somehow kept mine from turning as well. Quickly, I bring the baby dragon in grabbing all the medical supplies in the bathroom. "Come on Butters, we need to help him!" i yell directing it to where was puking in the trash can near the couch still.

He groans in protest, but reluctantly gets away from the trash can. Running his hoof over his to wipe anything still there. Butters and I swiftly start patching up the small baby dragon to whatever skills they have . Unfortunately, it looked like he was not going to make it without immediate medical help much longer.

"Butters, get medial help!" I call out.

"But, Mint, the nearest hospital is within fifty miles from Ponyvile. Our original clinic burnt down years ago." Butters said.

Damn, this is not good. He's on the verge of death. "Please don't die." I whispered before trying my best to stop the bleeding.

Spike felt like he was falling into an endless abyss. Everything around him was white, no clear path in sight. Well, it seemed like that before the ground hit him hard. After several minutes of recovering he gets back up, but a numbing pain stretched itself across his chest. Confused and scared he looks around in the abyss.

"Hello?" he says into the abyss around him. "Anypony here?"

With a rumble of the earth below a might voice calls to him. "Yes, I am here."

It was hard for him to collect himself from the might presence that loomed over him, yet the presence itself was not all bad. It had a nice warm feeling to making him feel more comfortable than actually afraid. "Where am I?"

"You are in a dream, little one. Hanging by a thread of your life left."

Spike then suddenly remembered that evil bastard, Lord Destroyer, again wishing he wasn't so small and weak to fight back. "Twilight, my friends, they are in danger! I must help them."

"I'm afraid that Lord Destroyer Equestria in an iron hoof by now. But I must warn you, you can not defeat such a threat alone."

Spike then realized. "The Elements of Harmony, of course!"

There was a pregnant pause before the voice continues. "Unfortunately, the Elements of Harmony alone is not strong enough to break the infinite layer barrier of darkness." Spike seemed flabbergasted the voice made such a statement. Every time the Elements of Harmony have vanquished evil, so why and how could they fail to defeat a pony unicorn like Lord Destroyer? "But there is still hope. little one. You must find your friends and search for a new power called the 'Spirits of Willpower'."

"The Spirits of Willpower?" Spike paused thinking of any reference to such a thing. "Twilight's library never had any books on such spirits that I know of."

"Of course not, little one. Because the ponies of new forgot this ancient art long ago."

"What about the Canterlot Library? It has many secret ancient spells in its walls."

"No matter how powerful a spell can be, it can not be summoned forth." Spike tried to think of any other place, but came up blank on ideas.

This time the voice said in a mystified tone. In order to know and use the Spirits of Willpower they must know themselves first. Then and only then will such great forces of the universes shall decide whether to take such pony as its own."

With that, the ground rumbles around him as pieces of the ground break off into the void below him. You shall live Spike the Dragon. May the light guide you to victory." Before he could get out a coherent thought the ground floor below his feet shatters sending him plunging into an abyss of darkness this time.

i checked the baby dragon's vitals and they were rapidly dropping lower and lower. Butter looked just as grim as I did. "I don't think he will make it, Mint. He lost too much blood," It seemed like that to me too. His fate had already been sealed the moment- "Wait, his heartbeat is picking up!"

Stunned, he went to feel the dragon's heartbeat "What?! But- How? He's lost too much blood too be alive anymore." the deep wound on his chest begins to heal up before their eyes as well. "Mint? Are you doing this?"

I just look as stunned as Butter is. "No, I don't even know if there is such a spell that exists for a wound like this."

As the last of his wounds heal, the dragon stirs slowly opening his eye completely to oblivious to Butter and I. Not until Butter bumped into a shelf as it crashed down on him. The baby dragon turned his head sharply to the piled over stallion a little startled that he was in a house, yet it seemed like he was knew this place. Finally, he laid eyes on me. He seemed to have have a liking to me because his eyes came alive and filled with wonder at the sight of me. It was like he forgot initially that the rest of room was there. After snapped out his transfixed stare, he rubs his head trying to get rid of the possible headache he must have gotten.

"Um, I know this might be sudden, but who are you exactly?" I ask.

He paused for a moment before answering. "Well, I'm Spike," Looks at the room around him. "Why am I in Sugar Cube Corner? I thought the Cakes lived here?"

Butter managed to get up from underneath the rubble of the shelf he collided in earlier. "The Cakes? But the Cakes left Ponyvile 17 years ago after Lord Destroyer took over."the shocked face on Spike told me he did not know this. "Oh, I'm Butter Paste. Sorry for not introducing myself earlier."

"So, I'm about about 17 years into the future, huh? Spike rhetorically asked himself.

There was another pause before I broke the silence. "Spike, is it? I don't know where you came from exactly, but you like a good spirited kid. Get out of Equestria." I warn. Spike gets off the table he was laying on staring at me, craning his neck to do so. "You know where Twilight, Rarity, Applejack , Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, or Rainbow Dash are?"

I clear my throat. "The last have ever heard of them they were sent into the max security in Manhattan, Ponatraz." That did not settle too well with Spike given the look he had.

Spike then, with a determined expression replaced over the last one, said "Then I will just have to go there myself ." He walk out door leaving a baffled Butter and Mint behind.

Meanwhile, at the Lunar Liberation Rebellion (LLR) Headquarters..........

In the underground headquarters of of a growing organization, they fight for the freedom of Equestria like most ponies dream of having against the tyranny of Lord Destroyer. One of the soldiers in the base however seem to be scared out of her mind. She has a blue coat with stripes of sliver and red mane hair showing out of her helmet that she locked her head. she wore thick metal armor, but with a magical spell it, it was as it weighed as much as a feather would be to most.

This pegasus soldier continued speeding pass all other wondering or patrolling parties of many different types of ponies. She eventually made it to her destination: the throne quarters, where Princess Luna resigned in. Her midnight mane ever flowing and her navy blue coat ever so elegant. The only difference was that she had a scar along her back left hoof, but fortunately, it was not well noticeable "What did you find out, Scout Blurry?" Luna asks sternly without hesitation.

"Well, your highness, you see..... Lord Destroyer, we believe, is making bio weapons." The now named Blurry replied back, panting slightly.

Luna kept her composure, but knew his bio weapons could potently be sign to start war. "This complicate things. He got what he wanted. What more does he acquire?"

"We are not not sure, your highness, but he seems to be releasing them soon."

Luna thought for a moment before she said. "Inform the other nations on Equis of what has transpired in Equestria lately. With a "yes ma'am" and a solute, Blurry sped away to make Luna's orders happen.

Spike looked around outside for the first time, he realized the town itself used to be Ponyvile. Even though it was the same Ponyvile it looked completely different now. . A few buildings have been burnt down or blown to pieces. The rest was in poor shape. Statues were chipped in many different places the stone streets looked to have been torn apart unrecognizable, even Sweet Apple Acres had a few craters where apple trees used to be.

Looking at the once peaceful Ponyvile made Spike even more angry at Lord Destroyer. How dare he have done this? Killing millions of ponies and destroying their homes and for what? Where is the justice in that. Spike walks along the trail of broken stone for a while before the same mare from Sugar Cube Corner teleport in front of him Spike was surprised by the sudden appearance stumbling backwards.

She had a very black coat, but also had a blue mane with a single stripe of green in it. The style of her hair seem to cover only her right eye from view. Spike couldn't help but admire her radiating beauty somehow attracting him in. "There you are. I wasn't done with you !" She said.

Not long after, the stallion named Butter Paste from earlier had galloped over to us heaving from exhaustion. "Mint, think about this, you just met him. Why would you want to go with a baby dragon into Ponatraz, the worse of the worse ponies to ever exist in there!?"

The now named Mint replied. "I don't know exactly why I feel like I want to go with him, but I believe at least he could use some company if he's traveling that far up.

Butters paused and thought over it over. "Okay, then if you want to go then I'll come with you too." Spike looked between Mint and Butter shrugging.

"If you want to come that's fine with me. I could use the company." Spike replied. Butter, Mint, and Spike then set off out of Ponyvile.
