Spike was living a normal teenager life, but when Celestia has a vision of an old evil force returning to take over Equestria he must embark on a long journey of hard training to fight across Equestria to protect the ones he loves more than anything else.

All seems straight forward but all is not what it seems, Who is this shadow pony? How is spike being a dragon relate to all of this? And why is he blushing when he looks at Twilight?!

Okay....maybe things are more complicated than it seems.
