Chapters BLOODBORNE The Young Dragon Blood
Chapter Zero: Alone
If there was one word Spike Solaris Dragon use above all others to describe his current surroundings, it will be cold and the smell of heavy blood in the air. He slowly looks around and find himself on a table and wearing old 18th century-old England clothing, that he only saw in old pony books. After a few minutes Spike decided to get off the table and have a look around, he finds strange books, an IV bag, a surgical tool, some old like a bottle of liquid in them.
“If I didn’t know any better it looks like I’m in a small clinic,” said Spike in an exhausted and dazed state.
Spike finds a handwritten scrawl on an old nobility chair, next to a small table with a more strange looking bottles. The Scrawl readied: Seek Paleblood to transcend the hunt. His body tense of the word blood and hunt. Spike drops the handwritten scrawl and now looking for a way out of this place, he found a single double door that was not locked and open them. He proceeds to walk through it and down some moldy old wood steps, at the end of the step he found more old books, a lot more surgical table, and something rotten coming from the middle of the area.
“Gross, it smells like rotten egg mix with rotting cabbage and mustier,” Spike a cough and wheeze.
His coughing caught the attention of a wolf-like beast. Spike looked at the beast and frozen, without any hesitation the beast lunge at Spike ready to sink his to teeth into him. At the last second Spike jump out the way, he rolled on the floor as the beast crash through two surgical tables. Spike felt the blood trickling down his left cheek and arm, he has little time to react as the beast was on him again. Spike jump and roll out the way as best as he can, after a few more rolling and jumping he decided to use his dragon fire.
“Sorry about this, but you leave no choice!’’ Spike roar. Using is dragon fire to burn the beast to ashes. “Man I’m glad Fluttershy and the girls did not have to see that.”
As Spike limp away he here a low growl, he turns around to see the beast in pain but still look ready to kill. The beast jump at Spike with his mouth wide open, he did not have to time roll out the way. Spike felt searing pain through his left shoulder, he let out a painful scream/roar, as he felt the beast teeth tears into his scales. That surprise Spike because his scale can stand up against mostly all types of metal and magma. Spike uses his claw to slash at the beast's chest, the beast rears up in pain and throw him on the ground. Spike fell to his knee and grab his torn shoulder, blood was now everywhere his vision was blurring. He saw the beast crawling toward him, with his mouth open and teeth cover in blood, the last thing Spike thought was his friends and family, before feeling the beast teeth on the back of his neck.
If there was one word Spike Solaris use above all other is the coldness of night and emptiness. Spike wakes up from the cold hard ground and stumbles to his feet. His vision starts to come back to him, and what he sees wish he stayed dead. A rundown house on a hill that looks like it comes from a nightmare. Spike slowly walk toward the bottom of a hill to spot an odd looking Doll. He inspects the Doll to see if it in good condition. It took Spike a few second to examine it, to see the clothing look new.
“Why would somepony dress a Doll to look like a servant?” Spike asks feeling a little awkward.
Spike continue up the hill seeing bubbling coming from the brick steps, as he got closer three-misshaping things came out. “Accept Gift from Messengers”. Spike seems hesitant to look at the three weapons. “The messengers offer you a trick weapon. Choose one. Trick weapons are wielded with the right hand and employed in beast hunting”. Spike look at the three weapons a Saw Cleaver, a Hunter Axe, and a Threaded Cane. He looked over the weapons to see which one he prefers after a few minutes feel out the Cleaver, Axe, and the Cane, Spike pick the Cleaver. It is perfect for Spike; the hunter axe was powerful but slow, the threaded cane was fast but do no damage.
“That strange why do I feel so comfortable using this weapon? Maybe it’s a dragon thing, Ember did tell me that dragons are more warrior base than any other creature,” sigh Spike as he wishes to go back home.
Spike put the Saw Cleaver on his back and proceeds to continue up the hill. He reaches a second bubbling thing and other three-misshaping things pop out. “The messengers offer you a firearm. Choose one. Fire are wielded with the left hand, and employed in beast hunting.” Spike saw the two weapons and looked at them, a Hunter Pistol and Hunter Blunder buss, he never saw firearm like these in Equestria.
“Not even Twilight, Celestia, and Luna heard of this. Ah,scale I miss my sister Twi, Momlestia, and auntie Lulu.” Feeling tears roll down his cheek.
After a few minutes Spike dries his tears and pick the Hunter pistol, he realizes that his dragon fire can hit multiple targets and this pistol base on the designed, will hit one target. Spike reach the top of the hill to see one more bubbling thing, and this time it was a note book. “A note book received from the messengers. Leave messages with theses loyal servants they share them with hunters in other worlds.”
“This may be useful to keep around,” Spike said putting the note book in his pocket.
As Spike reach the top of the hill the door to the house is open, he slowly walks in and sees an old man in a wheel chair. Spike approach the old guy, with his saw cleaver in his right, ready to strike down if he moves from that wheel chair.
“Boo,” whispered the old man.
Spike drops his saw cleaver on the wood floor and jump back pulling out his pistol.
“Ah-hah, you must be the new hunter. Welcome to the Hunter’s Dream. This will be your home, for now. I am… Gehrman, friend to you hunters. You’re sure to be in a fine haze about now, but don’t think too hard about all of this,” Gehrman said in a rough whisper.
“But I don’t want to be a hunter. I want to go home to my friend and family!” Spike yelled. At Gehrman.
“Just go out and kill a few beasts. It’s for your own good,” Gehrman said ignore the young dragon plead.
“I don’t want to kill. I want to go home!” Spike roar.
“You Know, it’s just what hunters do! You’ll get used to it…,” Gehrman ignores Spike again.
Spike storms out the house and down the brick step. He came across tombstones, on top of the tombstones; it’s read Yharnam Headstone. Spike kneels and feels the engraves on the tombstones are letter “1 st Floor Sickroom” . He felt his body goes heavy and past out.

BLOODBORNE The Young Dragon Blood
Chapter 1 Beginning
Spike finds himself back in the small clinic, but down the stairs of the room, he was first in.
“Ah great back in this place,” Spike said in a deep growl.
He starts to make his way back to the room he started in, at the top of the stair but the doors are lock.
“Why is this door lock?” as Spike tries to force the door up.
“Are you… out on the hunt?” a mystery woman said in a soft hopeful voice.
“Then I’m very sorry, but… I cannot open this door. I’m Losefka. The patients here in my clinic must not be exposed to infection. I know that you hunt for us our town, but I’m sorry.” said Losefka in a desperate plead to get Spike to leave the clinic.
“But I need your help! Please!” Spike yells in hope to get the doctor to help.
“Please. This all that I can do.” Plead.
She gives Spike a strange Vial. “Losefka’s Blood Vial.” “This refined blood, highly invigorating, restores a larger amount of HP. The product of a slow and careful refinement process, this rare blood vial appears to be a clinic original.”
“Now, please go. And good hunting.”
Losefka starts to walk backward deep into the clinic having a small pistol pointing at the double door. Spike looked at the blood vial, that Losefke gave him.
“At least she helps? Remind him of Fluttershy, man I miss my friends,” as Spike walk back down the steps.
Spike made his way back to the room where he died, and the Wolf-Beast is still there. He slowly enters the room and sees the Beast walking around, Spike stares the beast down waiting for it's back to be open for an attack. As the Wolf back was turned, He grabs his Saw Cleaver from his back and ran toward the Wolf. The Wolf hears Spike coming and jump out the way, Spike curse under his breath. The beast land on one of the Surgical table, it lunges at him ready to bite the young dragon head off. Spike roll under the wolf barely dodging the wolf teeth, Spike dash toward the Beast with Saw Cleaver raise above his head.
He brought the Cleaver down on the Wolf chest, the beast howl in pain as the Cleaver tear its way through the chest ripping flesh from bone. The Wolf kick Spike through one of the table, the beast lunge at him again with claw rises to slash at Spike's chest. he rolls out the way and took a giant breath blowing his dragon fire at the Wolf-face, the beast recoiled from the flame of the dragon. Spike slowly got up and walk toward the beast, he pulls out his Pistol with anger in his eye he shot the Wolf in the shoulder and in the knee. The wolf look at him terrifying, as Spike got closer and closer he put his foot on the beast's chest. He lifts his Saw Cleave above his head, blood drip from the Cleave. In a last-ditch, the beast tries to slash him, but Spike brought the Cleaver down on the beast head.
Spike pulls his Cleave out of the Wolf's head, he slowly starts to walk away dragging his Saw Cleave on the floor. After he exits that room he finds a waiting room, Spike collapse to his knees, and puke up what content he had in his stomach. After a moment and collecting himself, he sees a body to his left. Spike walks toward the body to see it dead on the floor, he closes his mouth so he won’t puke again. Spike saw something in the man clothes, he reaches in a pull out a vail. “Blood vial:” “Special blood used in ministration, Restores HP. Once a patient has had their blood ministered, a unique but common treatment in Yharnam successive infusion recall the first, and are all the more invigorating for it. No surprise that most Yhrnam are heavy users of blood.
“Why is Blood so important?” Spike look at the vail.
After he left the dead body behind Spike proceed out of the waiting room, and up some stairs to find another set of double doors. He pushes the doors open and steps out of the clinic, for the first time he wakeup in the Nightmare have a sense of relief, but that relief lasts about of second. Spike made his way through a courtyard, on his right and left he sees some gates that look Old 18th-century London. Spike tries to push and pulls the right gate up it would not budge, he went to the left, and this one opens with a loud piercing squeak.
Spike walk forward out of the courtyard and on to the stone road, he sees two pathways one leads down some stone stair and the other one lead toward the main road. He went down the stone step but did not see anything there but the dead body. Spike walk back up the step and head toward the main road that leads to a huge gate. A few feet in front of him, spike saw a very tall man wearing a top hat and a long coat. Spike approach the man, he was dragging an ax in his left hand and a torch in his right. Spike walked up to him and about to ask the man what happened here, but before he can get a word in the man swing his torch at him. Spike jump back and land on his feet looking at the tall lanky man.
“Wait I just want to talk!” Spike slowly back away pulling out his Saw Cleaver ready to defend himself.
The man roars and stumps towards Spike with his rusty blood ax. The ax came down on Spike, but he dodge left to use his Saw Cleaver to slash at the man left leg. The man was now on his knee, he tries to swing his torch, but Spike grabs the torch with the left hand and crushing it. Raising his Saw Cleave above the kneeling body and bring it down on him, splitting his head. Spike slowly back away from the now dead body, he leans on a huge gate that leads to an upper pathway.
He tries to pull and push but it did not budget. Spike looks to his left to see the dead body and what looks like a lever. He walks towards the lever, and pull it towards him. As Spike got the lever halfway he screams in pain, he turns around and two more men. One of the men lifts us ax to swing at Spike. Spike rolls out of the way and pulls out his hunter pistol and shot the men with the ax. Spike dash forward to use his Saw Cleaver and slash upper across the man's chest tearing his skin from his muscle. He collapses on his knee, at the same time Spike slash down on the man chest ripping muscle from bone.
The second men try to rush Spike, he raises his sword to slash at him. Spike sees this coming, and inhale and breathes fire covering the man in dragon flame. The screaming in pain as he feels his skin burns away. Spike took out his Hunter Pistol and shot the now burning man in the head. He fell to his knees in pain.
“I need to heal myself!” Spike wheeze.
He remembers he has some Blood Vial, Spike shivers of the thought of using the vial.
“Well, it a perfect time to test the Blood Vial. man, I'm sound like Twilight,” Spike chuckle to himself.
Spike took the Blood Vial and open it, he opens his mouth and drinks it. Spike nearly threw up but he holds it down.
“Note to self never get injured, that Vial taste horrible like Twi cooking.” Spike cough a little blood from his mouth.
Spike again walk to the lever and pull it toward him a latter came crashing down on the stone ground. Spike proceeds to climb up it, halfway through the climb hears and beastly shriek echo across the city. Spike felt a shiver run up is body and fear what made that sound. He continues up the latter until he reaches the top and sees a lamp post. Spike got near it and feel his body getting heavy again.
Author's Note
What made the sound? Let hope that are young dragon don't have to face whatever that thing is.
BLOODBORNE The Young Dragon Blood
Chapter 2 Yharnam
If there was one word Spike Solaris use above all other is the coldness of night and emptiness. Spike found himself back at the house at the bottom of the hill next to some headstones. He walks around the place and finds a thin area and a creepy house on a hill. After looking at the place Spike can confirm that this area is isolated, from the world of that human and big wolf. He also noticed that to his right past the tombstones were a small area that maybe use to testing out a weapon, and to his left, he sees more headstones but those were different. Spike also noticed that the doll was not in her place the first time he was waking in this strange place.
“Where did that doll go?” Spike looked around for any hint that somepony move it.
As Spike looks around, even more, he hears some giggling coming from the house. He made his way up to the house and try to open the doors but it will not budge.
“Maybe I should just get out of here?” Spike quickly walk down the hill.
He kneels in front of the headstone; Yharam Headstone. He examines the headstone and fond more writing on it. 1 st Floor Sickroom, Central Yharnam.
“So, the 1st Floor sickroom was where the Wolf was at, I should avoid that area for now,” Spike read the headstone
Hm, so Central Yharnam is where that lamp at the top of the latter? Well better go there.” Spike confirmed his decision.
Spike touches the Central Yharnam engraving and feeling his body get heavier.
“You think that that young dragon will ends this hunt for good,” the Doll in a soft monotone voice.
“Maybe but we just have to wait and see” Gehrman whisper
“of course,” said the Doll looking at the door.
Spike got up off the ground not sure what to do next. He hears coughing from a nearby window and went to go investigate.
“Hello, are you alright?” Spike asks a little worry in his voice.
“Oh, you must be a hunter.” A sickly man ask.
“No, not really” Spike in a low growl
“Will that too bad, and you are not from around here, either.” A man cough
“How can you tell” Spike look surprise
“Because like you, I’m an outsider. The name Gilbert.” Said in joy tone but still coughing.
“Well Gilbert, I’m Spike Solaris Dragon, but my friends call me Spike,” he said in an almost happy tone.
“You consider me a friend?” Gilbert look surprised
“yes, I do, besides you have not attacked me,”. Spike confirmed
“I have to ask, are you a nobleman or a prince?” Gilbert ask.
“Why would you said that?”
“Because your name sounds like royalty.”
“Well yes and no, I have a choice to become royalty or not, If I do choose that path of royalty it may lead the country I love to go into chaos. My family will be hurt because I’m an outsider in my country.” Spike growl.
“How so, if your royalty how do the people consider you an outside,” Gilbert ask
“Well I’m adopted, so I have no royal blood. So, if the people find out I could be killed or my friend and family could be hurt.” Spike felt a little mad.
“Why?” asked Gilbert.
“Well, my pon/ People yes people and the other races that live in Equestria, just now start to get along so yeah.” Spike a little hopeful that thing goes well at the Summit of Leader.
“Well my beware that my friend, Yhanam has a special way of treating guests. Well, I don’t think I stand if I wanted to… But I’m willing to help a friend and someone of royalty.” Gilbert laughs a little.
“If there’s anything that can be done”. Gilbert a cough
But this town is cursed. Whatever your reason might be, you should plan a swift exit. Whatever can be gained from this place, it will do more harm than good… Gilbert cough more.
“Can I ask you a question? What are Paleblood?” Spike looking for some answer.
“Paleblood, you say? Hmm… Never heard of it.” Gilbert said.
Spike looked down not finding the answer.
“But if its blood you’re interested in, you should try the Healing Church. The church controls all knowledge on blood ministration and varieties of blood. Across the valley to the East of Yhanam lies the town of the Healing Church, known as the Cathedral Ward.” He whispered.
“And deep within the Cathedral Ward is the old Grand Cathedral… the birthplace of the Healing Church’s special blood. So, they say.” Gilbert cough more.
“Yhrnamites don’t share much outsides. So be careful my friend”. Gilbert said
“Normally, they wouldn’t let you near the place, But… The hunt is on tonight. This might be your chance…” He coughs
“I haven’t heard of Paleblood, but… that is your best bet if it’s anything to do with unique of blood…” cough even more.
Spike look to the direction of Gilbert was talking about and sees his destination.
“Thank you, Gilbert.”
Spike went back to the latter and see a bridge to his right.
Maybe that the way the Cathedral Ward.
Spike went back to Gilbert and to his left to he see a gate, he tries to open it but it will not budge. He sees another path leading down a stone hill. Spike went down the path, and lead to a stone bridge to see more Yhrnamites down on the main road. He walk across the bridge to his left, see and gaping hole, and to his right leading down some more stone steps. Spike looks around the hole in the iron fence. He hears foots steps and on instincts jump back to the left, barely avoiding a medium-size ax that the Yhrnamite are wielding. The Yhrnamite start to roar and swing his ax wildly try to hit him. He jumps back again and waiting for the Yhrnamite to get tired, Spike sees his opportunity and dash forward use his Saw Cleaver and slash across the man's chest ripping a piece of flesh off. The man recoiled from the pain while Spike continually cutting into the Yhrnamite falling dead.
“That was a close one, need to pay more attention to my surroundings.”
He walks down the stone step and to his right he sees two Yhrnamites, the one that is close to him is sitting on the ground holding a small sickle, and another one looks off in the distance holding a wood shield in his left hand, and a torch in his right hand. Spike slowly walk up to the man that was sitting on the ground, raising his Saw Cleaver, before he can react Spike brought his Cleaver down cutting through the Yhrnamite head. The second one hears his buddies blood pour out of his skull, he rushes towards Spike with anger in his eyes. Spike dodge to the left and pull out his Hunt Pistol and shoot the Yhrnamite, but he raises his shield to block the bullet and cackles. Spike smiles and inhale and breathes fire on the wood shield turning it into ash. The man was surprised that the young hunter can breathe fire, Spike dashes toward him and slices his chest, blood pouring from the wound and falling dead.
Spike look to his right sees more Yhrnamites down on the made roads. He waits from to past, as they walk up the main road, Spike went down the road where the main gate was at. He sees a lever that is connected to the gate, reaching for the lever and pulls it toward him. The gate slowly opens with a loud squeak, looking around and finding the path he started on.
Spike turns around to see a giant fat man wield a giant fuck-off ax.
He jumped back ready for a fight, the fat man charge at him with his ax and with a mighty swing brought the ax down cracking the stone ground between Spike's legs. He dashes forward slashing at the man's stomach and succeed. Spike jumps back waiting for his next opportunity, but the fat man grabs him tightly and throwing him into an alleyway. Spike crashes through a bunch of wooden caskets and boxes full of rotten fruit, he lunges at him with his ax in the air. Spike quickly dodge to the right and pull out his Hunter Pistol and shot it, the man did not even flinch from pain. Spike quickly dashes forward to try and cut off Man's hand hold the giant ax.
The fat man jumps back dodging Spike Saw Cleaver, he lands and running forward grabbing Spike and putting him into a bear hug. Spike scream from the death grip, then he rolls his ax so its blade is facing him. He nows holding Spike with his left arm, and using is right-hand drags the ax across the back of Spike's head. Spike Scream even louder feeling the giant ax slice into his head, blood running down his neck and off the ax. Though his pain and scream Spike inhale and breathes his fire into his attacker's face, he let go of the young dragon. He slowly got back up to his feet, feeling more blood running down his head and on to his back. Spike slowly tries to run away but he can only limp away. Spike made it to the main gate until he feels pain coursing through his back. Spike turned around and sees the Fat man behind him, the man swings his ax and hit him with the flat end. Send the young dragon across the stone ground near the latter. Spike looked at the Fat man daze, walking at him ax in both hands. He turned and see the latter from before.
He slowly starts to climb the latter as the Fat man jump with his ax raises in the air, he barely misses Spike's spine but slices his tail off. He screams continues to climb the latter until he reaches the top. Spike slowly drags himself to the lamp bleeding from his stump of a tail and slowly close his eyes, the last thing hears was Gilbert's voice pleading
Author's Note
Never understatement the fat man with the giant fuck-off ax.
