Author's Note
Hello anypony whose reading this. This is my first story on this site, not the first I've written though.
I hope you guys enjoy but before let me lay down some groundwork:
Spike will not be getting some great big town wide harem, just some repeat customers.
He will however get a Mane 6 harem, much later in the story.
There will be no rape, whatsoever ever in this story, unless it is a fake rape role play scenario. I don't like rape.
Spike will also not be partaking in big adventures or battles, he's a masseuse not a warrior.
The Mane 6 will not be customers for a good long while yet.
Spike may or may not service stallions as well, I am not sure and will appreciate feedback on that idea.
I will be going through the series, changing parts that may be affected from Spike changing.
Meeting the Twins.
This tale begins with another tale. One that so few ponies had heard of yet many people knew well. The tale of two sisters. The tale said that there was once two princesses who ruled their kingdom together, one ruling over the day, the other ruled the night. However one princess grew jealous of the praise given to her sister. This hatred and jealousy allowed her mind to succumb to a parasite, that transformed and defiled her body into the monster that called itself Nightmare Moon. Forced to battle what was once her sister, the princess of the sun used 6 powerful magical artifacts know as the Elements of Harmony, to imprison the Nightmare on the moon. For a thousand years the prison would hold, but like all prisons, it was not infallible.
The city of Canterlot was largely agreed to be the most beautiful city across the country of Equestria. With an ancient design that had been held up surprisingly well against time, and a populous that insisted that everything look prim and proper, it was not unexpected that they had garnered such an image. That Princess Celestia herself had her castle so close to the city also helped promote the feeling of prestige Canterlot emitted. It was in this town, though more specifically the castle overlooking it, that a purple unicorn came rushing through the doors to her library/living space, unintentionally knocking down a small, equally purple, dragon.
The unicorn in question went by the name Twilight Sparkle. She was of average height for mares her age, 19, with her mane and tail sharing a similar design of purple, pink and dark blue highlights. Her horn poked out from her mane, splitting the straight cut it had been styled into.
The dragon on the other hand was quite a bit different. He was a bit shorter than his companion, standing the two next to each other would see his face reaching her neck, and he walked on his hind legs rather than on all fours. While his scales were a light lavender his underbelly was an equally light shade of green, with several "dorsal fins" running down from his head to the tip of his tail. Said tail was the same color as the rest of him and ended in the shape of a small arrow head. His fingers came with small claws, though he kept them short and a little dull, so as to not run the risk of hurting anypony on accident. This dragon was called Spike.
"Spike! Spiiiiike! Spike?" Twilight called out, in search of her assistant before realizing that he had been knocked to the floor in her hurried entrance. "There you are." She continued running past him up to several shelves filled to the brim with all manner of books, ranging from basic spell books to advanced woodcarving manuals, "Quick; find me that copy of Predictions and Prophecies." She cut herself off as she cast so questioning look at Spike's tail, which had speared some kind of present. "What's that?"
"Well, It was a present for Moondancer." Spike replied looking dejected, pulling the remains of his planned gift off of his tail, the broken present falling out from the hole he had inadvertently made in it. It was a real shame as he'd spent a lot of time and money on getting the perfect gift for her, and for it to go to waste like this was kinda depressing. This should have been an indicator to how the rest of the day would have gone, telling Spike that bad things were coming. Unfortunately he didn't think anything of it, save how he was going to end up having to give her something else that he could scrounge up, so he was dreadfully unprepared for what was to come.
What was to come came about 17 hours later, when the pair was stood together in Ponyville, when Nightmare Moon broke free from the moon, apparently kidnapped Celestia, and threatened the world with eternal night before turning into smoke and flying off into the Everfree forest. Twilight immediately rushed off to the library, a number of other ponies they had met that day following suite. They could not have left at a better time, as the crowd exploded into a panic, running around screaming and crashing into one another.
Being shorter than everyone there, save the fillies and colts, Spike received some of the worst treatment, as the scared townsfolk trampled over him, battering and bruising his body. Attempting to avoid the thundering hooves, Spike crawled his way through the crowd until he reached a kind of clearing in the masses. Seeing how bad things were going and thinking how bad they could get, Spike made a decision. "HEEEEEYYYYY!" He yelled out, his voice loud enough to quiet the crowd, and cause them all to stop and stare at him in shock. 'Thank you princess for teaching me that' Spike thought, remembering all the times he had had to use it to snap Twilight out of a deep study session.
Clearing his throat, he addressed the crowd "Look, I know that a lot of you are scared, but don't worry. Twilight Sparkle is on the case, and she's Princess Celestia's personal student. If anypony can stop Nightmare Moon, she can." For a few moments the crowd seemed calmed by his impromptu speech, relief evident on people's faces.
That was until a random stallion in the crowd blurted out "But if the Princess couldn't stop her what chance does this Twilight have?!" His panicked question sent a new wave of panic through the crowd, with more and more ponies asking similar questions, until once more they were in a state of alarm, and charging into each other again. Nothing Spike did could stop it, primarily cause he could feel his throat aching from using the Canterlot Royal Voice, and he had been rather quickly rendered unconscious from a blow to the back of his head.
10 minutes or so later, the crowd had dispersed as ponies retreated to their homes to wait things out with those they held dearest. This left a few stragglers who either didn't know what to do, or had been waiting for the crowd to die down before moving. Included in this particular group was a pair of sisters. One had a pink fur with some light cerulean mane, while the other had the exact opposite of her sibling. Both shared the same mane and tail style, their hair carefully washed and conditioned so as to shine when hit by light. So similar were they that the pair even had matching eyes, a mesmerizing azure.
These sisters were the ones to stumble across the unmoving body of the young drake. "Gasp, Lotus isn't that the one that tried to calm everybody down?" Aloe asked, her high voice and thick accent gone in exchange for a low, almost sensual tone. Most hearing her speak would assume that she was 'coming on to them' when in reality that was just how she and her sister talked. This was why they purposefully changed how they spoke when they were around company, so as to avoid any misunderstandings that may arise from unintentional flirting.
"Yes, I do believe it is." Lotus responded as she let her eyes gaze at the creature before them. He was on his side, belly rising and falling as he breathed, showing he was at least alive. He had a nasty looking bump on his head though and that certainly drew her attention. "Poor thing looks hurt. Come on Aloe, let's get him inside." She said, scooping Spike up and placing him on her back, as the two made their way back to their home/place of business.
5 minutes and an unlocked door later, they were depositing their charge onto one of the readily available massage beds, and preparing a warm wet cloth to sooth his injury. When the cloth made contact, Spike let out a sigh of relief, as his body shivered in delight. "D'aaaw." The two mares chorused, charmed with his adorable actions and equally cute looks. As Lotus left to make them a cup of tea to calm down any nerves they still had from seeing Nightmare Moon, Aloe couldn't contain her curiosity, and took to closely observing Spike while he slept.
He was a little shorter than them with a slightly pudgy face and an unusually pointy tail. Any other observations were hard to make given that he was unconscious, though there was something she was very interested in. Picking up one of his arms, she pulled his hand up to her eyes where she inspected each digit like one would study a gemstone. Neither her not her sister had ever come across hands before, their customers all being ponies, let alone fingers. As she ran her hooves across his hand, his claws scratched against skin through her fur. Aloe shivered at the sensation. It was not unpleasant, far from it, just strange. Living with hooves meant that they were not accustomed to such satisfying pressure being placed on them. And that was from just an idle scratch.
Looking around in case her sister had seen, or was currently watching, her, she lowered her head and began rubbing her head into Spike's hand, his claws not quite digging into her skin, but scratching deep enough for Aloe to notice. Aloe whimpered quietly as the foreign feelings swept over her, and she pressed harder against those oh so wonderful digits. This had the effect of Spike's claws scratching right behind her ear, a place that was almost impossible to scratch normally due to the size of her hooves, so to suddenly have his talons digging into her there, made Aloe lose some of her self control as she let out a short moan of satisfaction.
However this noise brought Lotus rushing in, "Aloe are you OK?" Lotus asked, a tray with a teapot and cups balanced on her back. Her eyes widened as she took in the sight of her sister, panting and whimpering while her eyes were half lidded, as she happily used Spike's hand as little more than a scratching pole. Clearing her throats and garnering Aloe's attention, Lotus giggled as Aloe blushed a deep red at being caught. Carefully placing the tea set on a nearby table, Lotus raised a questioning eyebrow at Aloe.
She sheepishly said "It feels really good." Her rather blunt statement was met by a deadpan stare from her sister.
"Really?"
"Really!" Aloe insisted "You try it, come on you'll love it, I promise."
Choosing to humor her sister, Lotus trotted up to her, and allowed her to move Spike's hand so it was resting in her head. When Aloe started shifting and putting pressure on it, Lotus' legs started to shake as an overwhelming sensation of what could only be described as satisfaction rolled down her body. "Mmmmhhhh" she hummed as she allowed Lotus to continue to manipulate Spike's claws to scratch behind her ears.
Pulling Spike's arm away, Aloe turned and gave Lotus a smug grin, while Lotus blushed madly as her actions caught up with her. "Told you."
"Ok, I admit it was... amazing. Kinda sad he's with that Twilight though."
"I know! I could get used to those, um, what were they?"
"Fingers, I think." Lotus replied unsure, half remembering a book she had read on the physiology of other species in case they ended up serving them.
"Yes, those. Oh sweet Celestia they felt good, and I thought were we good."
"Just imagine what he could do with them with the right skills."
While Lotus had said that as a joke, Aloe was actually considering her idea. Being a masseuse was difficult, as hooves were at best a blunt instrument, not designed for precision work. This meant that in work such as theirs it took a lot of training to overcome this. However, Spike's claws were practically made just for this task, able to get all those hard to reach areas and put pressure on them with almost no effort. Add in some training on where to put said pressure to get the most enjoyment for his customers... Aloe almost started drooling at the amount of extra customers they would have rolling in.
Noticing her faraway look, Lotus asked "Aloe? What are you thinking?" Hurriedly explaining her plan of teaching and hiring the dragon as a new massager, Lotus was left with a disbelieving look. "You can't be serious?"
"Oh I am." Aloe assured, already picturing the blissful looks of their customers as they left the spa after a Dragon Massage, though she noted to herself to come up with a better name.
Any argument Lotus was about to make was put on hold as a groan from the bed interrupted them. "Oh, damn, my head. Ow, ow, ow." As Spike rose from the bed, he looked around to find himself somewhere he did not recognize in the slightest along with two of the most attractive mares he had ever laid eyes on. From their shining manes, their almost seductive half lidded eyes, and their attractive faces. Their bodies were nothing to scoff at either, both of their coats looking well tended to, along with flanks that could make any stallion drool. And given that the two had been facing away from him and had only turned their heads, he was given a very good look that left him blushing, though he didn't really know why. Sure Twilight said staring there was rude but why'd it leave him feeling funny whenever he did?
"Oh, you're awake." Gasped Aloe, now fully turning to face him to his confused disappointment.
"Yeah, I, ow, am." Spike said, pausing for a second to rub the back of his head. Feeling the bump, he assumed that was the reason why he had been knocked out. He wasn't overly worried though, he healed pretty fast, had to given how many bumps and scrapes he got working with Twilight. "Um, where am I anyway?"
"You're at the Ponyville Day Spa, we brought you here after the crowd had all ran away." Lotus explained as she began to fix everyone a cup of tea, seeing as it should have cooled enough by now.
"Oh well thanks, I guess." Spike replied "I'm Spike by the way, Spike the dragon!"
"I'm Lotus Blossom."
"And I'm Aloe, we own the spa, its why we could bring you here this early in the morning."
"Well, I'm glad we met. Ha, who knows what could've happened to me out there if you two hadn't come along?" Spike thought aloud, "I owe you. Big time!"
Sensing an opportunity, Aloe discreetly smirked at Lotus, "Well, if you say so..."
"Yeah," Spike continued "I could've been left out there all day! Everypony seemed so afraid, I don't think anyone would have helped me."
'Right where I want you.' Aloe thought to herself, while out loud she said "Well, seeing as you seem to be offering, I think I know just how you can pay us back for such kindness." As she spoke, her voice dropped to a seductive tone as she crept slowly up to the dragon until she reached a hoof out and caressed his cheek.
"W-w-w-what d-do you w-w-want me t-to do?" He stuttered horribly, mimicking the butter coloured pegasus he had met earlier that day.
Breathing gently into his ear Aloe whispered "What I want, is for you..." she paused for a moment to build the suspense "to become our new masseur!" She finished brightly, startling the poor boy, who had been pleasantly enjoying the strange feelings that came from having Aloe so close and hearing her sweet voice in his ear.
"What! Bu-bu-but I don't even know the first thing about maseuring!" Spike said, waving his arms out in front of his face in denial.
The twins giggled at his response. Seeing how Aloe was going to try and get Spike to join their workforce with or without her help, Lotus decided that she might as well not attempt to hinder her sisters scheme, hoping all the while it wouldn't come back to bite them on the flanks. "Spike, a masseur is someone who performs a massage, not the act itself." She gently chided him. It took a lot of effort to to not d'aaaw at the sight of Spike's flushed face. "And as for why we want you, well, its because of these." She continued, pointing a hoof at his claws.
As Spike gazed at his hands in confusion, Aloe elaborated "Hooves just aren't as good for this line of work as claws are. They're a bit too big to really work the delicate muscles. But your claws are perfect for them! With just a bit of training you could be the top masseur in the spa!"
"And you might even become the best in Equestria." Lotus said, picking up where her sister left off.
"Hmm." Spike hummed in thought. He had never really considered what having claws really meant in a society full of ponies. It had never seemed to be that big a deal. Sure he could grab things much easier without magic or using his mouth, though with the amount of things Twilight made him carry sometimes he did have to use his mouth occasionally, but that was as far as his thoughts on the matter had gone in terms of 'advantages'. Now here he was being told in simple terms that by virtue of having hands, he could become a master masseur! It almost seemed like an obvious decision.
But then there was Twilight to worry about. He was her assistant, he shouldn't be spending time learning to be a masseur when he should be helping her. But on the other hand , was that all he wanted to do? Help Twilight fetch books or perform experiments all day every day? 'No,' He thought 'this seems fun and Twilight would want me to branch out and get a hobby or two.'
"All right, I'll-" He cut himself off however when he realized something quite important that he had been forgetting. "Sorry you two, but I don't even live here, I live up near Canterlot. No matter how much I want to do this, there's no way I could get here every day to work!" He cried, apologizing for something he had no control over.
The sister's faces fell at the news. Just their luck. Someone who could help make their spa one of the greatest and most unique in the country and he can't work there cause he was from out of town! Just fantastic! "But, you would work here, ya know, if you lived here that is?" Lotus asked meekly.
"Yeah. You two seem nice enough, plus it'd be great to get away from Twilight once in a while. She's great but sometimes I need a little time of my own, ya know?" Spike asked rhetorically "I kinda do wish I lived here now though." He lamented, "I mean what are the chances of me and Twilight moving here permanently?"
A few hours later he and the twins would be mentally celebrating his tempting of fate, when Princess Celestia ordered Twilight to stay in Ponyville to study Friendship based magic, giving the girls the chance to drag Spike away for his first lessons on massaging. After a days rest to catch up on missed sleep, and time for Spike to explain his new side job to Twilight that is.
