He had been running along since he came out of the mayors office, leaving the nearby ponies in a daze when he ran by. Giving the occasional wave and nod of his head as he pushed his way through the streets, "Come on twilight, maybe you can give me some more answers." He had seen the rather large magical castle coming into view, and when he got to the door it flung open in his face, his snout pushed back in agony before he tumbled down the stairs from the impact. Upon hitting the bottom, he had landed on his but, seeing as this happened a lot he had grown more of an immunity to it, but... "Ow... That hurt.." He said as he looked up only to have his eyes turn to pinpricks for a moment and looking away with a soft blush on his features.

Twilight had come out of the castle holding a few boxes of books in her hands when she heard the thud at the bottom of the stares, with each thud she knew who it was and grit her teeth with each impact. "Are you alright Spike?" What he had seen was up her skirt, from this angle he could see up her lavender skirt to show the blue panties beneath with a cute little bow. However, Twilights words snapped him out of it as he had looked away catching up to the moment. "Need some help Twilight? You know you don't have to do everything by yourself right?" He stood up dusting himself off as he headed up the stairs to aid the princess of friendship. "Of course Spike, but I need to get these books to the school, I promised to donate books I know through to the end so that way I can expand the youngs knowledge. I especially love the history texts and scrolls in here, but its time I let them go to those who could better use them don't you think spike?" She stated before relenting and letting him take the boxes, their walk beginning as he moved alongside her.

"So, Twilight do you know what I can do to start my journey?" These words caused Twilight to tense up and thoughts pushed to the front of her head as she knew what she had to say. "Spike, I cannot tell you where to go, you will know when the time comes, there will be moments when rifts appear throughout equestrian, hay maybe not even here perhaps in the griffin empire and such. You are in charge of making these decisions by yourself, and I know for a fact that since you are 18 now, you will have a lot on your mind. As an adult, you need to make your own decisions, but also know when to rely on those around you for help. So no I do not know sadly, however I will say that for now I believe you have a week here. Use it to the fullest, and then see if a rift will appear for you." She smiled towards him, as he set the boxes down, they had gotten to the school house but it was vacant since it was Sunday.

Spike was left in a stunned silence, the one pony he wanted to get help from couldn't help him? "What am I going to do? Don't I need to be better prepared for this? Shouldn't I train up on physical skills, maybe mag-" The sound of a pony in the distance snapped him from his thoughts, as Sweetie belle ran up to both Twilight and Spike, "Hey there Twilight, Spike! What are you doing here today? I thought you had some more important business like the pa-" Twilight had swiftly used magic to cover her lips, as Spike scratched his head then looked over to her. "Heh heh, yes sweetie belle, we do have more important business right now, like Planning out how his next week will go staying here in ponyville!" She said the last portion with gritted teeth causing sweetie belle to catch on, and the magic being release. "Alright, well Spike I have a surprise for you tonight, please come by Sugarcube corner at 7 okay?"

She twirled around in a happy giggle, as spike had been looking her up and down. Sweetie belle had grown rather well, her mane similar to that of Rarity's and her figure having expanded out, to a rather large bust perhaps a Double D? While her waist had slimmed and when she turned to run off he got a good view of her full rear. Looking back to Twilight she gave him a coy smile. "Already looking at Mares huh Spike? Just barely 18 and My wonderful assistant is finally showing interest in mares!" this caused spike to instantly blush and shake his clawed digits in front of his face, "N-No Twilight you got it wrong I just can't help it. I mean, she grew up so well! I just...." His words dying down to a mumble Twilight simply lead the way, "Well Spike lets go get some lunch its noon and I am sure you haven't eaten in all your excitement yet huh?"

Spike had taken a moment to think about it and Twilight was right, he hadn't really eaten anything and as if on cue his stomache made a rather large noise expressing his interest. Twilight smirked, "Alright lets head back home and get something to eat huh?" With a jump to his step and a salivating maw he nodded, "Yea! Lets have some pancakes, I will make them and if possible I should have some Ruby and Sapphire flakes since its my birthday?" He looked eagerly to Twilight, causing her to sigh and giggle a bit, "Alright Spike, but don't get used to it, its only because it is your birthday." With a fist pump they had arrived home, but once there everything was dark. He looked around inside the castle, "Hey uh twilight, did you forget to open the curtains or something?"

He felt around for the light switch but instead he grabbed onto something causing a feminine moan to sound in front of him. A blush spreading across his face and his heart beginning to race, he began to clutch a bit and move this weird feeling around in his hand eliciting more moans in response. He quickly moved back then squeaked out, "S-sorry I don't know what came over me I was just looking for the light switch!" He moved along and with a few more feet he laughed, "Got it!" The light switched turned on and when he turned around there was all of ponyville gathered into one spot. "Surprise!" Confetti blowing everywhere with party confections, and poppers even food all along the tables. He had happily, laughed before he thought for a second then looked over towards where he had felt that feeling, his eyes jolted open in another form of surprise. The mare standing there, was none other then Fluttershy! She was hiding behind her mane and he could see some small bit of blush crossing her face. Putting two and two together, he blushed hard and moved to the refreshment table. Everypony beginning to enjoy the party, with all sorts of ponies dancing on the dance floor, some off to the side, even some just eating and playing adult games.

He headed to the refreshment table and then looking around carefully, grabbed a cup of punch for himself and Fluttershy. Wanting to nip this in the bud as soon as he could, he turned around to see a few stallions surrounding her. He looked around to see that Twilight and Pinkie Pie were too busy dancing to notice, Rainbow Dash and Applejack were having an arm wrestling competition, with which there seemed to be no clear victor and Rarity who was talking with Sweetie belle about something in the back that was causing her to blush. With a sigh, he headed over to fluttershy and the large stallions.

"Hey there, beautiful why don't we all ditch this party and go out to have a little fun of our own?~ Perhaps we could even swing by your place and spend the night together?" The other 2 stallions were laughing as the large one in front was pressuring Fluttershy, " N-no thank you, I am here for Spike and I don't think I- um, like the way that you all are moving so close?" She squeaked a bit, as the stallions moved their heads a bit closer, "We all heard you moan, we don't know what caused it but we aim to find out.~" As they moved in, Spike moved up and using his tail flung it around the large front stallions legs, and leg swept him as he did so he kicked him in the throat causing him to have troubles breathing. Spikes pupils were dilated and red, he seemed angry and Fluttershy could tell he had heard what they were wanting. Moving back a bit scared, she saw how spike moved. The two stallions that were beside him simply blinked at how quickly their boss was taken out and freaked running out the front door.

The music had stopped abruptly, and everyone was staring at Fluttershy and Spike, Twilight rushing over with the others of the mane 6 spoke out. "What happened here?"

"These Stallions were not taking no for an answer when Fluttershy wanted to enjoy the party. They wanted to pressure her and bring her out to leave the party with them..." This caused Twilight and the others to gasp slightly before she got slightly angry and with spikes help brought the large thug into guard custody. It had been a few hours now and the sun had just finished setting as everypony now was Standing outside, the others finally went in leaving Twilight, Fluttershy and Spike, "Will you be alright? This is your party after all..." Spike simply nodded to Twilight as she gave a smile and headed in. Fluttershy however did not and moved forward tapping his shoulder. "U-um.... Spike?"

"Yes Fluttershy?" He didn't seem to turn around obviously affected by what happened a bit. "T-thank you Spike... For helping me out in there..." She stated before moving forward as Spike looked up into the night sky. "Its alright Fluttershy, I am sure you would have done the same for me, if I was getting unwanted advances. Did you see the sky out tonight? The stars are even more vibrant then usual and I can tell Princess Luna put a lot of thought into the sky tonight. Perhaps, one day I can see myself up there.... Its always been a dream of mine, to be one with the night sky and its beauty... Ever since I got to really enjoy it that night when you and everypony left me alone during the Grand Galloping Gala and I had been left at Donut Joes." Tears began to stream down his face, as Fluttershy put a hand to her mouth and slowly moved to wrap her arms around him pulling his head down to hold in her loving embrace. However, Spike felt something as the tears fell, his face was on something soft like a pillow. Opening his eyes, he went beat red, as Fluttershy was holding his head to her breasts. Jumping back in surprise and a yelp he chuckled a bit to Fluttershy who simply tilted her head in confusion. "Sorry about that Fluttershy, j-just....." He sighed softly as he looked her in the eyes, "As you know coming of age Twilight has noticed I have started expressing interest in ponies..." He had an embarrassed look as he scratch the spines on the back of his head in a nervous habit.

A soft whisper spoke out, "I don't mind..." Spike looked around thinking somepony else was watching them but all he saw was Owlicious, and then his head looked over to Fluttershy, "D-did you say something Fluttershy?" With a nervous twitch of her arms against each other, she had a blush on her cheeks once more, speaking loud enough for him to hear. "I said that I won't mind!" Spikes jaw had dropped but before he could register anything that just happened, Fluttershy had lunged forward in a leap as her lips now placed upon his own. Causing Spike to fall backwards from it all, Spike was taken aback by the sudden approach of Fluttershy, as he tongue had pressed against his scaly lips, he didn't want to deny her he felt that he couldn't... Something inside of him was boiling up inside and he began to kiss back parting his lips to coil his tongue around her own as he closed his eyes enjoying the moment of their tender moment. The night sky illuminated above, there was a set of eyes staring down at them before jumping off along the trees.
