"OH YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!!!.

Was all Castro said when he saw the little dragon at the door of the castle screaming and having a panic attack. Castro swiftly crouched down and placed his big hand over Spike's little mouth to shush him and calm him down a bit. Safe to say that did not work as Spike was now more terrified than calm and he decided to do something brave and stupid. He fired his little fire breath in Castro's hand hoping to burn him a little but that did not work as Castro moved his hand which was now on fire away from Spike's mouth and simply blew it out, which surprised the dragon greatly, and it managed to silence him for a bit. Castro moved his gaze from his hand back to Spike and proceeded to ask him a very important question.

"Hey little dragon, is there any important people in this castle i could speak to?" he asked.

Spike gulped at the question." You wont find any people around here" he spoke nervously.

Castro narrowed his eyes a little." What do you mean by that?

"I'm afraid that apart from family and you, there are no other humans in the land!" Spike spoke nervously.

Castro immediately facepalmed and sighed very heavily. This made spike feel even more nervous.

"Ok kid, Where am i and who could i speak to that is very important." He eyed the crystal castle.

"Oh um, you are in the magical land of Equestria which is ruled by two very powerful princesses, but this here castle is also home to another princess named Twilight sparkle who is the princess of friendship and leader of the elements of harmony!. Spike finished with a bright smile on his face.

Castro however looked very pale and worried. "So not only did i encounter wood wolves and Lions with scorpion tales, but now i'm speaking to a baby dragon with an odd colour scheme, but he also tells me that i'm only one of two humans in this weird land which has princesses as its rulers.. I'm begining to wonder if i teleported to some new disney movie which i now ruined."

"Umm sir, are you ok?. Spike asked very worriedly.

Castro looked at the small dragon with a straight face. "Yeah kid, i'm great!"

"Ok i-i'm glad!. Spike smiled a little.

"By the way kid-

"Its Spike by the way."

"Excuse me?" Castro said with an odd look.

"My name Mr".

"Oh..Right..Sure whatever. Castro said dryly. Anyway, Spike, you said that i was only one of two humans here!. So two questions. 1. The other human you said that is here, is he an adult with white hair by any chance?".

"No sir, the other human here is a child. Who is also family.

"Yep, of course he is!. Castro frowned.

"Ok question 2. What species inhabit this land?" Castro asked very nervously.

Well Mr. Equestria has many different species living here, ranging from dragons, to diamond dogs, and griffons. But mostly ponies inhabit towns all the land. Spike spoke with a small smile on his face.

But the same could not be said about Castro who had a thousand yard look on his face. "So not only that the other human resident here is a little child, but PONIES MOSTLY INHABIT THIS LAND!!. Plus that puts me to square zero, i have no lead on Alexei's whereabouts." Castro sighed with his face in both his hands.

Spike stared at the frustrated human for some time with a worried look on his face. "Umm Excuse me sir. Why are you upset that ponies live here?.

Castro turned his head sharply to the little dragon who recoiled back a bit and also saw a glimpse of the red dragon mark on his cheek that was mostly hidden by his long hair." Listen kid, i'm here for a very important mission i can't share with you right now, but i will say this. Castro crouched down in front of the little dragon. My mission is very dangerous and i don't want anyone to get involved in it for their own safety, even though everyone here are animals." He finished while resting his hand on Spike's head giving his thrills a little rub.

Even though Spike was scared, he actually enjoyed his head being rubbed, and that this human actually had a decent heart.

Castro got up and stood tall above the small dragon and gave him a little smile. "Well kid, i'll be heading off now. The sooner i can get my mission done, the quicker i can leave this land and be free".

Castro then turned his back towards Spike and was about to leave but the little dragon called out to him.

"Hey Mr you- he was cut off.

"The name's Castro kid, Castro Reddragon!". And with that said, he continued to walk away towards the forest once again.

Spike watched him walk away and he had all these questions in his head about the mysterious human he encountered. "Gosh what do i tell Twilight and the girls when i see them." Spike then went back into the castle and closed the doors behind him.

                                                                                                        (Meanwhile)

Twilight and the girls were running through town towards the castle of friendship.

"So any ideas on what last night's commotion was about?" Applejack asked.

"Whatever it was we will find it and i'll buck into next week!". Rainbow dash followed up while smashing her hooves together.

"Gosh Rainbow darling, must you always resolve things in violence!". Rarity added while rolling her eyes.

Pinkie was hopping along the others with a giddy grin on her face. "If it's an evil animal menie i'll send it flying with my party cannon!!" she said as she pulled her party cannon out of nowhere.

Fluttershy remained quiet the entire time as she was a nervous wreck, who could blame her, out of all the residents of ponyville she lived closest to the everfree forest so no doubt she heard last night's explosiones as well.

Twilight was leading the girls towards her castle with determination in her eyes. "C'mon girls we are almost there."

The other 5 elements gave a swift nod of their heads as they quickened their pace towards the library.

Back at the castle Spike was in the middle of preparing breakfast for himself and the girls for when they arrive back at the castle. But he was still deep in thought about the recent visitor he spoke to a few moment ago. He couldn't help but wonder who he truly was, how he got to Equestria, what kind of mission was he on, and the thing that bothered Spike the most about him was that dragon mark on his face. Back when Spike first saw it he did not want to say anything about it, but he can't get that image out of his head. While spike was lost in thought another unicorn mare entered the kitchen, she has a pink coat with a purple and teal mane and she had a purple and white star with two glimmering  blue streaks for a cutie mark. She looked over at spike and trotted up to him. "Hey there Spike good morning" she greeted him with a smile. This caused spike to snap out of his thought and made him jump a bit "ohh hey there Starlight i never heard you come in what's up?" he asked her with a nervous smile on his face. Starlight was about to answer when she noticed the nervousness in Spike's voice.

"Hey Spike dear, are you feeling ok?" Starlight asked with concern on her face.

Spike gulped slightly and twiddled with his claws slightly " hey starlight i need to te-"

"SPIKE STARLIGHT I'M HOME!" Spike was cut off as Twilight's voice echoed through the castle.

"Great" spoke spike in a very quiet voice.

"COMING IN JUST A MOMENT TWILIGHT!" Starlight yelled back.

She then turned her gaze towards the little dragon. "Listen Spike what's bo-"

Spike shushed her by placing a claw on her mouth. "Hey go to the others and i'll catch up in a sec"

Starlight gave him a look of worry for a moment, then it turned into a soft smile. " Alright Spike i will go to the others, but later on me and you are going to have a little chat!". Starlight hugged him then trotted out the kitchen towards the main room.

Spike just sighed heavily and turned around to stare out the kitchen window towards everfree. (well, here goes nothing!) he thought to himself as he started to walk towards the main room to join the others with Castro reddragon still on his mind.
