Chapters My Little Pony:Destiny REMAKE
"FOR THE LAST TIME I DIDN'T DO IT!" Spike pleaded. Spike had lost the case of the murder of Ms Fleur De Lis. Spike looked up to his friend/sister Twilight who was eyeing him with disgust.
"Spike your DNA was all over the crime scene." Luna said sadly.
"I was with Shining Armor how could I have done it?" Spike pleaded.
"Leave my brother out of this." Twilight said disgusted. Spike endured the comments from his former friends. Fluttershy was crying profusely,Pinkie's hair was completely flat,Rainbow Dash looked at Spike as if asking;Why?,Applejack just glared at him,and Rarity wouldn't even look at him.
"Please you have to believe me I was with Shin-" Spike began
"I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE HIM OUT OF THIS!" Twilight shouted angrily before slapping Spike.
"TWILIGHT TWILIGHT CALM DOWN!" Fluttershy shouted which really wasn't that loud.
"Sorry. That was unprincess like. He still deserved it though." Twilight said with disgust. For Fluttershy a million thoughts were going through her head.
Why would Spike do this?
Are we making the right call here?
What if he actually is innocent. Will he forgive us?
Spike's mother Celestia walked up to him with sadness in her eyes.
"Mother please. You know I didn't do it." Spike cried.
"I'm sorry Spike but as Princess of Celestia I hereby banish you to Tartous for your crime against Equestria forever." Celestia said sadly. Then the party cannon went off
"FORR-EVVV-ERRR!" Pinkie said. Celestia shot a beam at Spike and Spike felt instant pain on his body. He screamed in pure agony when the ground opened up beneath him and he fell into an abyss.
"FAREWELL SPIKE THE DRAGON!" He heard Celestia shout in the voice of an executioner. Spike saw the ground rushing up to meet him and all went black.
It has been one year since banishment. Spike clawed another line onto his wall. He put his back against a wall and began to cry.
"Why? Why me? After all we've been through why would they throw me out like that?" Spike cried.
"Do not cry child." A voice said. Spike looked around for the voice. He could not see anyone.
"Who said that?" Spike asked. Then a light figure popped up in front of him.
"Me." The figure said.
"AHH WHAT THE FUCK!" Spike shouted in surprise.
"Calm down my child." The figure said in a warm voice. Spike got a better look at the figure. It was a female alicorn with long flowing red hair.
"Who are you?" Spike asked.
"Oh I'm sorry my name is Solar. I was once a ruler of Equestria like your mother however under false accounts I was banished here like you." The figure said.
"Why are you here?" Spike asked.
"I've come to get you out of here." Solar said before she cast a spell which melted the walls which let Spike out. Spike followed the Solar to the edge of Tartous. Two statues were on each side which can only be activated by Princesses or Princes to open a portal to Equestria. The figure uttered another spell. The statues eyes started glowing and a portal opened.
"This portal will take you to Equestria. I have left some stuff for you. Fulfil your mission and bring back the assassins." Solar said.
"You're not coming?" Spike asked.
"I died here long ago. I cannot return to the land of the living." Solar said.
"I'm sorry." Spike said.
"It's fine. Go forth Spike." Solar said. Spike nodded and leapt through the portal.
Spike was laying on sand. He opened his eyes and saw the blue sky. He looked around and he was standing in a desert with a community in the distance. Spike was wearing hooded robes and had a backpack on. Inside said backpack was some money,a key,a mask,and a dagger. He decided to head into town and buy some stuff before what he thought would be a long journey but not before he threw on a mask after all he is a escaped prisoner now. The town turned out to be Appleloosa of all places. The town looked at Spike weirdly but hey when a dragon comes into town with a mask and looking like he just went though hell tell me you wouldn't do the same. Spike saw the local library he thought he could start there as to see what's happened in the past year. Spike walked into the library and out of all the people who could be behind the desk it just had to be Braeburn.
"Good evening traveler. What brings you to this fine establishment." Braeburn asked.
"Oh just passing through." Spike replied. One book caught Spike's attention. The cover had a strange insignia on it and the title was
The Assassins:The Old Protectors of Equestria
"Hey what's that?" Spike asked gesturing towards the book.
"Oh that thing. I found it last week but it needs a key to open the only reason I still have it is because it looks cool." Braeburn explained.
"I'll take it off your hands." Spike said.
"You can have it for two bits." Braeburn said. Spike paid Braeburn the money and got the book. It was getting late so Spike decided to get a room at the inn. Spike walked into the inn and up to the desk where Little Strongheart was waiting.
"Good evening master. If you're looking for accommodation we got some nice rooms available Mr uhhhh." Little Strongheart said. Spike forgot he needed to use a fake name considering being a wanted dragon and all.
"Sting. My name's Sting." Spike lied.
"Sting. Okay for 10 bits you can have the room on the left." Little Strongheart said. Spike paid the Native Equestrian and went to his room. It was an okay room. It had a king sized bed with a chest,a wardrobe,a desk,and a bathroom. Spike sat down on the desk and looked at the book. When the door suddenly opened and someone dressed in a waitress outfit came in.
"Hello I am your room service if there is anything you need feel free to ask." The waitress said.
"I guess I'll have an ale." Spike said. The waitress bowed and walked out and came back two minutes later with a pint of ale. Spike paid the waitress seven bits and went back to the book. He thought back to his conversation with Braeburn. He said it needed a key. Spike then thought of the key he had in the backpack. He pulled out the key and put in the keyhole and the book swung open. Spike then got to reading.
In the days of old before banishment,back when Equestria was new there was an elite group of people who were assigned to protect the crown. These people called:The Assassins. They were extraordinary people who were masters of sneak. They could pop up at any given place and be gone just as quickly. This led to the rumor that they could become invisible. The Assassins protected the crown for many years until Luna's banishment. After the banishment they slowly started to fade into legend. And then after Celestia founded the Royal guard they disappeared. No one knows where they went or when they will come back and people are still looking to the skies in hope.
Spike read through the book and was intrigued. When he reached the end he saw a small piece of paper taped to the book. He took off the paper and looked at it.
If you are reading this that means you were chosen to bring back The Assassins. On the back of this paper is a map to the old HQ go there and wait until you are needed. The Assassins have returned.
Spike looked at the map and the base at the Everfree Forest of all places. Spike was in for a one hell of a journey but he did not think about it to much.Spike turned out the lights and fell into a dreamless sleep.
My Little Pony:Destiny REMAKE
It has been two days since Spike saved Ponyville. The story spread all across Equestria of how one dragon single handedly dispatched about 20 shooters without a scratch. The tale of the Assassins was pretty well known across Equestria,a bunch of extraordinary people with unique abilities saving lives and shit like that. But with the assassins fading into legend the tale became a myth,something to entertain children until now. All across Equestria people were rallying behind Spike or as he is known now Drake Blaze. Graffiti popped up in places like Los Pegasus,Manehatten,and Detrot saying stuff like Long live the Assassins HAIL TO THE ASSASSINS YOU ROCK ASSASSINS
"Any word on Spike yet?" Twilight asked.
"No. There has been no sign of him anywhere. I don't think he would come back here. He probably ran off to another country." Celestia said.
"Should we warn them that there might be a crazy,rampaging,blood thirsty dragon on the loose?" Rainbow asked.
"I'll tell nearby countries to double the watch. If they see a green and purple dragon bring him to me." Celestia said.
"Okay then. With that we take our leave." Twilight said before turning around.
"Wait Twilight." Celestia said.
"What is it?" Twilight asked.
"What's your opinion on the Assassins?" Celestia asked.
"Well one of them saved the town. They seem like good people. Why do you ask?" Twilight asked.
"Well they sort of have a bad vibe." Celestia said.
"What in tarnation do you mean?" Applejack asked.
"Before me and Luna took the throne Equestria was ruled by an evil dictator. She had the ability to change his form into anything. It's unlike a changeling where they can turn into other ponies. No she could turn into dragons,changelings,breezies,parasprites,and even humans. Her guard were the Assassins. Me and Luna led a rebellion against the tyrant and managed to defeat her but not at the cost of many lives. The Assassins defeated offered to guard us as they made an oath to protect whoever has the crown. Me and Luna didn't trust them but we kept them but then the banishment happened. The Assassins were split on whose side to take and they argued and it slowly turned into a bloodbath. The Assassins were killing each other left and right and some even made an attempt on my life. It was after that I retired them and founded the Royal guard. However before the current leader left Canterlot he prophesied that darkness will spread the land,the castle will be stained in blood,the scaled savior will come from the sky,fire will defeat you,the clashing of swords will rock the land,and the bells will ring at The Return of the King." Celestia exclaimed.
"Do you think The Assassins are the dark power?" Pinkie asked.
"No. I think that the person you saw may be the king that the leader spoke about." Celestia said.
"I think I put the pieces together. When Spike killed Fleur the castle was stained in blood,now he has escaped and I he will spread darkness,but then this other dragon appears out of the blue like he fell from the sky and saves lives,and the fire will defeat you may be that Spike will be my death and The Return of the King may refer to the return of the first ruler of Equestria:Rouge Dracul. He was a dragon and the founder of the Assassins. What I think is that your dragon savior is Rouge reincarnated. Spike escaping then this guy shows up. It can't be a coincidence." Celestia said.
"So wait Spike is going to kill you?" Rarity asked horrid.
"NOT IF I CAN HELP IT!" Twilight shouted.
"Silence. You can't stop destiny Twilight. And besides it said fire will defeat me not kill me. I may just get into a duel with Spike and lose and get thrown into Tartarus simple as that." Celestia assured Twilight.
"We can't be to sure Princess. I suggest you double the guard." Twilight said worried.
"I am not taking any risks. It shall be done. I have no more to tell you know." Celestia said.
"With that we take our leave." Twilight said before leaving the room.
Fluttershy was totally silent during the conversation while it may be normal for Fluttershy but she was to quiet. Not even a cough or sneeze or anything. Rainbow was slightly worried about her.
"Something bothering you Flutters?" Rainbow asked worried.
"Why do you ask?" Fluttershy asked.
"Well you a little to quiet in there darling. We're all friends here if there is something bothering you then tell us." Rarity assured her.
"Well I have been thinking. What if Spike really didn't kill Fleur?" Fluttershy asked bracing for the explosion. Applejack stopped in her tracks,Rarity passed out,Pinkie gasped loudly,Rainbow fell to the ground,and Twilight was silent.
"How could you say that Fluttershy? That bastard clearly did it." Pinkie said loudly.
"But there was barely any evidence. And there were no witnesses that reported Spike fleeing the scene." Fluttershy defended herself.
"His DNA was found at the scene. It had to have been him." Twilight said calmly.
"But wasn't Spike found abandoned in a cave? How do we know he doesn't have a brother or sister?" Fluttershy asked.
"I'm sorry Fluttershy darling. I know how much you want to believe Spike didn't do it. Believe me we were all shocked and thought the guards were joking when he was arrested, but it was him Fluttershy." Rarity said after regaining consciousness.
"I guess your right." Fluttershy said. As much as Fluttershy wanted Spike to be innocent the little evidence they had pointed to Spike being the culprit. But it still bothered her. Spike was carefree and perfectly happy on the day of Fleur's murder in fact when he saw Fleur they greeted like old friends. It didn't seem right to have Spike greet someone like an old friend and then wind up murdering them. Fluttershy was worried and she secretly hoped that Spike was alright.
Spike was running above the roof tops. It was about 7:00 at night and most ponies were inside their houses. The ones who weren't did not see Spike as he was completely silent. Spike arrived at the center of town and jumped onto the Carousel Boutique and went straight to the top. It provided a great vantage point for Spike to look out over the town. The door to the boutique opened and Sweetie Belle walked out the door.
"Hey Rarity I'm going to Applebloom's!" Sweetie Belle said.
"Okay be safe." Rarity said.
"Don't worry about me. That dragon from a couple days ago could be in town waiting." Sweetie Belle said. She then closed the door and walked into the direction of Sweet Apple Acres,her hair blowing in the wind.
Seeing her like this makes me realise how pretty she is. Spike thought. Spike leapt from the boutique onto a nearby building and followed Sweetie Belle. She walked into the gates of Sweet Apple Acres and was greeted by Applebloom and Scootalo.
"Got here safe I see." Scootalo said.
"Yeah. Good thing no crazy gunman tried to rape you." Applebloom joked.
"Shut up." Sweetie Belle laughed.
"On the subject did you ever see the guy's face?" Scootalo asked.
"What guy?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"The guy who saved your ass." Applebloom said.
"No. I didn't." Sweetie Belle said. The three girls continued their conversation about Spike while walking into the house. Spike couldn't help but laugh. He then got a crazy idea. He lept from the nearby building and ran towards their clubhouse. Spike climbed up the ladder and found a piece of paper and a pencil and wrote down his note. Spike laid the note on a nearby table and lept out the window.
The CMC were walking towards their treehouse with their sleeping stuff in hand. They were planning on sleeping there tonight. After they got their cutie marks they renovated the tree house into a nice den. They filled it with a fridge,a couple couches,a bed,a tv,and a couple game systems. It was basically what Granny Smith called it "The Sleepover Cabin" they climbed the leader and strolled in when they noticed the note. Applebloom picked up the note.
"What does it say?" Sweetie Belle asked. Applebloom then began to read aloud
We need to talk. Whoever is reading this bring the rest of the CMC with you. DO NOT TELL YOUR SISTERS ABOUT THIS! Meet me at the center of Ponyville Park at 1:00. Make sure your not followed.
A friend
"Do you think it's a trap?" Scootalo asked.
"I don't know. I think we should go but we should bring some weapons to defend ourselves." Applebloom said.
"Like what?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"There a couple hand guns we keep under the couch. They should do." Applebloom said as she got on all fours and pulled out three hand guns from under one of the couches. One Glock 17,another one a Beretta M9,and a Sig P226.
"These will do." Scootalo said as she was looking at her Sig.
"Well if we have to get up so early we should start sleeping now." Sweetie Belle said. The rest of the CMC agreed and they drifted off into sleep.
The CMC were at the park at 1:00 on the dot. They were standing on a bridge at the center with their hands on their guns. They were starting to think this was a prank by Diamond Tiara when a voice spoke up from above them.
"Sorry I'm late I got caught up in redecorating my new crib." The three all jumped back and pulled out their guns when they heard the voice. Of course the voice is none other then Spike.
"WOAH WOAH WOAH! Easy there. I am not going to rape you." Spike said with warmth in his voice. When they saw his face well mask really they lowered their guns.
"Oh it's you." Sweetie Belle said.
"Yes." Spike said.
"Okay guy why did you want us to come here. You here to make us a part of your guild or something." Scootalo asked.
"No. I came here because of this." Spike said as he removed his mask revealing his face.
"SPIKE?!" The CMC shouted and Spike put his finger up to his mouth.
"SHHHHH Shut the fuck up you idiots." Spike whispered sternly.
"S-Sorry. What the hell are you doing here. If they catch you then..." Sweetie Belle began before Spike put a finger up to her mouth.
"You three don't worry about me. I have a mask and people know me as the savior of Ponyville now. I highly doubt they would think that the most wanted dragon in Equestria would save the entire town." Spike said assuringly.
"Sorry. We just don't want to see you behind bars again." Applebloom said.
"Yeah me too. Well what did I miss?" Spike asked.
"Oh not much. Discord got a job,there was a monster named Wolflore whom our sisters stopped, there was a flesh eating virus for a while, and now there's-" Scootalo began.
"Okay I get it. Shit feel apart." Spike said.
"Yeah pretty much." Sweetie Belle said.
"Okay then. With that I take my leave." Spike said.
"Wait Spike!" Sweetie Belle said.
"Yeah?" Spike asked.
"I want to thank you for what you did earlier. It was very noble of you. And I kind of need to repay you so..." Sweetie Belle then kissed Spike on the lips. While Spike did not have expertise in the area because this was his first kiss he hoped all kisses felt as good as Sweetie Belle's. They kissed for about 15 seconds before they broke apart.
"Ohhhhh someone's in loooove." Scootalo teased causing both Spike and Sweetie Belle to blush.
"Sh-shut up Scoots." Sweetie Belle said.
"You have not changed a bit have you?" Spike asked.
"Not one bit." Scootalo said trying her hardest not to laugh.
"Okay whatever. I guess I'll see you tomorrow." Spike said to Sweetie Belle before kissing her on the forehead,putting on his mask,and disappearing into the shadows.
My Little Pony:Destiny REMAKE
Spike was busy cleaning up the cave. He got rid of all the leaves,the wood chips,the discarded scraps,the corpse remain,everything. Spike sat down on a chair and sighed in exhaustion.
"Should probably scout around town. " Spike threw on his robes and mask and ventured out of the cave and into Ponyville.
Ponyville was relatively quiet that day. The sky was quite cloudy,the birds were singing,and the townspeople were going about their business.
"I'm sure that the alicorn wanted more people to join. " Spike leapt from the building he was on and into an alley. He breathed his fire over the brick wall forming his message.
Assassins:Now Recruiting
He heard voices so he jumped back onto the building. The voices belonged to the mane 6.
"So Fluttershy your brother is coming to town?" Twilight asked.
"Yes. He was discharged from the Prance Army so he's here to stay." Fluttershy said.
"Hold up sugarcubes. Look." Applejack said pointing towards the alley where Spike left his message. The mane 6 got closer to the message.
"Looks like the assassins are recruiting." Rainbow Dash said. Twilight studied the dragon fire.
"I feel like I've seen this dragon fire before." Twilight said.
"Wait Twilight are you saying-" Pinkie began.
"This looks exactly like Spike's." Twilight exclaimed.
"You don't think that Spike may be the assassin do you?" Rarity asked.
"I'm not saying that at all. Fluttershy you said yourself that Spike might have had a sibling back in Canterlot right?" Twilight asked.
"Yes." Fluttershy replied.
"Maybe you were right. This may be Spike's brother." Twilight exclaimed.
"If it is how do you know he would be up to the task of killing his brother?" Rainbow asked.
"I don't. They are recruiting though, I guess we should join. See what exactly he is doing." Twilight said.
"I agree with Twilight on this one." Applejack said.
"Same here."
"Aye." Eventually the mane 6 agreed on joining the assassins.
Spike was leaping from building to building. He leapt onto the Carousel Boutique and climbed up to the top. He watched over the town seeing all the comings and goings. Spike heard the door below open and Sweetie Belle walked out onto the balcony. She looked over the town with a steady breeze blowing her hair. Spike leapt down behind her and hugged her from behind. Sweetie Belle let out a little yelp before turning around.
"Oh Spike you scared me." Sweetie Belle laughed.
"Yeah sorry." Spike said. The wind started getting stronger and clouds started forming overhead.
"Wind's getting stronger." Sweetie Belle said
"Yeah. Looks like a storm is coming." Sweetie Belle said. At that moment the wind blew the door shut and then it started to rain hard. Spike tried to open the door but it was locked from the inside.
"Shit. Locked from the inside."
"Ah fuck. Now what?" Sweetie Belle asked worried. Spike looked down at the ground. It was around a 50 foot drop. He studied the building itself. There were poles sticking out of the building. It would be easy to parkour down there.
"Is your front door locked?" Spike asked.
"No." Sweetie Belle said.
"How good is your parkour?"
"I have moderate skill. If you're thinking what I think your thinking I could probably do it." Sweetie Belle said.
"Okay then. Follow my lead." Spike said before he leapt off the balcony and onto a nearby pole. He continued leaping from pole to pole with Sweetie Belle close behind. They both hit the muddy ground at the same time and ran inside the boutique.
"Damn. We're soaked in rain. We should probably bathe." Sweetie Belle said.
"I agree." Spike said. They both walked upstairs to the bathroom.
"Who should bathe first?" Spike asked.
"I was thinking that maybe we could bathe together." Sweetie Belle said blushing.
"O-okay sure." Spike said blushing as well. Sweetie Belle and Spike stripped down until both were completely nude. Sweetie Belle turned on the bath and stepped in.
"You coming?" Sweetie Belle asked. Spike nodded before stepping in himself. The water was warm and Spike sighed in pleasure. Sweetie Belle worked his way over to him. Spike put his arm around his girlfriend as Sweetie Belle put her head on his shoulder their naked bodies molding together. Spike turned his girlfriend's head and started kissing her. Sweetie Belle happily started to return the kiss. That was what it was for the next half hour. Spike and Sweetie Belle bathing while kissing. Before long night started to fall and the storm started to clear. Spike and Sweetie Belle took their wet clothes and put them up to dry.
"So I guess you're staying here tonight." Sweetie Belle said. She was wearing a silver tank top and white lacy panties.
"Are you sure Rarity wouldn't mind?" Spike asked. He was wearing red shorts. His was not wearing a shirt so his chiseled abs were exposed
"As long as she doesn't know it's you." Sweetie Belle said handing Spike his mask.
"Thanks." Spike said throwing it on. Spike and Sweetie Belle walked up to Sweetie Belle's room and settled down. Spike wrapped his arm around his girlfriend who was resting her head on Spike's chest.
"I love you." Sweetie Belle said.
"I love you too." Spike replied before they fell into a peaceful slumber.
Rarity opened the door to her house. It was a crazy storm but Twilight was nice enough to give them shelter until it blew over. Rarity noticed the clothes of her sister drying but she also noticed the clothes of the assassin. This made her curious. She walked up to Sweetie Belle's room and opened the door. She saw Sweetie Belle and the assassin in bed together wrapped in each other's embrace. Rarity took a look at her sister's boyfriend. He looked almost exactly like Spike. He had a muscular build and chiseled abs. He was a total hunk. Rarity sighed and grinned at the young couple.
"Your a lucky woman Sweetie Belle. I sure hope he's been treating you with kindness. " Rarity walked to the door,cast another look at the couple,before walking towards her own room to turn in for the night herself.
My Little Pony:Destiny REMAKE
Spike has been traveling for weeks.
Surely they must know I escaped by now. Finally he arrived at the edge of the Everfree Forest.
"Finally." Spike exclaimed exhausted. Spike continued into the Everfree Forest. He was constantly light on his feet and staying silent because Zecora lived here and you never know where she could be. He was hiding behind a tree when he saw a strange sight. A blue pegasus was gathering herbs while muttering something.
Does this guy know that we already have a potion person out here? Spike continued into the forest. He was ducking behind trees and diving into the bushes until he came to the edge again right next to Fluttershy's cottage.
"Shit. Must have gone to far." He said out loud. At that moment the door opened and Spike's tail just disappeared behind a bush as Fluttershy came out. Spike silently watched her feed the animals. Angel blew on some flowers which flew near Fluttershy's nose.
"A-A-AH-AHH-choo." Despite how much Spike hated Fluttershy now he couldn't help but chuckle at her adorableness. No matter how much you hate Fluttershy she will still melt your heart with how adorable she is. Spike retreated back into the forest.
Fluttershy was busy feeding the animals. She heard rustling from behind a bush. She turned towards the forest and she could have sworn she saw a flash of purple,however it was gone as quick as it appeared. Fluttershy shrugged it off and went back to the animals.
Life completely changed since Spike was banished. Some of Ponyville divided over whether Spike actually did it. Some people said he did it and that he deserved his sentence actually a few of them said he deserved death. Then there were the people who thought Spike didn't do it or at least didn't deserve such a harsh sentence. It tore families apart especially her friends. The CMC believed Spike didn't do it. They fell out so to speak with their sisters. Scootaloo isn't talking to Rainbow Dash,Apple Bloom got into many arguments with her sister,and as for Sweetie Belle she considered moving out of the boutique. As for the mane 6 themselves their lives changed as well. It took Twilight a while to get used to not having Spike to give her support,Rarity to not have help for gem hunting,Applejack to not help out in apple hauling,Pinkie hauling baked goods,help with Rainbow's awesomeness,and help with Fluttershy's animals. Little did they realize that everything will change.
Spike travelled east for a few minutes and he came to a cave with a skull on it. Spike waked up to the skull and saw a small keyhole. Spike reached into his pack and pulled out the key and put it into the keyhole and turned it and the skull door opened. Spike walked into the door and was in a sort of cave house thing. It was not in good condition,there were pieces of wood,webs,torn books,it looked like a cave version of The Castle of Two Sisters. He needed to do some remodeling and then he saw a bit of white covered by leaves. He picked up the white thing and dusted it off revealing hooded robes.
He took off his shirt and pants and threw on the robes. He left his mask on because the robes did not conceal his face. He thought he would see how much Ponyville has changed before remodeling his new home. Before leaving he spotted a small round table with a dagger and tomahawk on it. He then grabbed them and walked out of the cave. He ventured through the forest until he came to the edge and strolled out of the forest toward town. The town hadn't changed much well after all Spike was gone for only about a year. Business was going as usual for his now ex friends. Pinkie was selling her goods at Sugarcube Corner,Applejack had her usual booth open,Rarity was selling her dresses,Rainbow was walking through town boasting how awesome she was,and Twilight was running towards the mayor's office in a hurry. Rainbow passed Spike but stopped and doubled back.
"You there? Who are you?" Rainbow asked.
"Spi-I mean Drake." Spike stuttered.
"You sound...familiar." She said suspiciously.
"Uh most dragon's sound alike." Spike lied hoping she would be thick enough to believe it.
"Okay." Rainbow said before continuing down the road. Spike sighed in relief and went up to Sugarcube Corner. It's been awhile since he's had some nice sweets. He opened the door was greeted by Pinkie and by that Pinkie tackled him to the ground.
"WELCOME TO SUGARCUBE CORNER! HOME OF THE TASTIEST TREATS IN EQUESTRIA I LIKE YOU!" She said before kissing him on both cheeks of his mask before Spike pushed her off.
"Do you greet all your customers like that?" Spike asked panting.
"Yes. Now what will it be?" Pinkie asked joyfully.
"Uh I guess I'll take a blueberry muffin." Spike said. Pinkie reached into her hair and pulled out a blueberry muffin. Spike was about to ask how she did that but considering it's Pinkie he refrained because Pinkie breaks the laws of physics every other day. Spike paid Pinkie 3 bits before walking out. He saw Twilight come out of the town hall with Mayor Mare. Mayor Mare called a town meeting and Spike walked to the square where everyone was gathering.
"Attention everyone we have got ourselves a big problem. The honorable Princess Twilight Sparkle will now take the stage." Mayor Mare said before Spike's ex-sister took the stage.
"About 30 minutes ago all the cells of Tartarus were checked and one prisoner has escaped. The prisoner's name is Spike." This sent a flurry of whispers along the crowd.
"How did he escape?"
"Will he come back here?"
"As long as he stays away from mah sister we're good."
"Oh Celestia what are we going to do?" Meanwhile three young adults were in a huddle and their names Apple Bloom,Sweetie Belle,and Scootaloo. Spike moved a bit closer to eavesdrop on their conversation.
"How did Spike escape?" Apple Bloom asked.
"I don't know. Should we go find him and warn him that they know?" Scootaloo asked.
"He could be anywhere. If he's smart, which he is he would get as far away from Equestria as possible." Sweetie Belle said.
"I hope you're right. I don't know why our sisters would throw him out like that. There was barely any evidence to begin with. I sure hope he's alright I don't want to find out he got chucked into bars again." Apple Bloom said.
"If not have his head on a silver platter." Scootaloo said.
"SCOOTS! Don't say that. If they did kill Spike...oh god my life might as well be over." Sweetie Belle cried.
Spike was just about to take them aside and tell them it's him when gunshots rang out and a group of ponies ran into the square and started shooting people. Everyone scattered into all directions. Spike pulled out his dagger and ran into a small group of them and started dispatching them. Whenever someone fired a shot at Spike he would avoid it really fast...a little too fast. He thought nothing of it for now. He dispatched the last of the group before moving through town. He dispatched the shooters one by one as he was running by an alley he heard a scream and saw Sweetie Belle and Rarity cornered by one of the shooters.
"Well hello young ladies you look nice how about we lose the clothing." The shooter said with a rape face before walking towards Sweetie Belle and tearing off her white blouse. Spike ran right towards the shooter and threw him against a wall. He was about to stab him through the head when he got disarmed. The man threw a punch at Spike's face and Spike kicked the man in the groin.
All while that was going on two young women were watching in shock. The man kicked Spike off him and reached for his gun and Spike reached for his knife the man was just about to shoot when Spike threw the knife right threw the man's eye. The man fell right to the ground and Spike got up and pulled out his tomahawk and brought it down on his head. He turned towards the two frightened siblings before running down the alley.
"HEY WAIT!" Sweetie Belle cried but Spike did not turn back. He came into a dark alley. No doubt people would look for him and Spike was going to leave a message for them. Spike took of his mask and breathed his dragon fire on a wall before disappearing into the darkness. At that moment Twilight followed by Applejack,Rarity,and Sweetie Belle turned into the alley.
"Applejack you're sure you saw him come this way?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah. I'm sure." Applejack said. They continued into the alley and saw A message lit up by green dragon fire which read.
