Whistles of the train echo throughout the neat, polish and clean train station located in Canterlot, indicating that it was only a matter of time for it to reach the platform, the iron wheels begin to slide on the metal bar, slowing itself down. The train pulls up to the platform of the station and opening the double doors.

“Now arriving at Canterlot Station!” A conductor yells out, causing ponies to flock out and in the train.

Twilight to her effects couldn’t let go of Flurry Heart, no matter what the teenage princess do, she couldn’t break her aunt's tight hug. Tears flow down her purple cheeks like a gentle stream which fell to Flurry shoulders.

Sharing the emotions that her aunt was feeling Flurry wrap her arms around Twilight not wanting to let go as well. Tears also begin to flow down the light pinkish teen. Spike just tapped his foot hoping the sound would separate the two but was only to ignored by Twilight and Flurry’s cries. Having enough Rainbow pull on Twilight’s shoulder forcing the princess of friendship to finally let go of Flurry Heart. Once release she begin to wipe away her tears.

“No! Don’t go!” Twilight cried out, causing Candace to roll her eyes.

“I thought the parents are meant to get emotional,” Candace said, before noticing her crying husband on the ground. She sighed. “Oh Stop being a big baby Shining.”

Spike let out a chuckle, giving a fist bump to Rainbow and Applejack, seeing how he’s going to miss them, especially the Oubliettes & Ogres Sessions with Big Mac, Shining Armor, Pinkie, Discord, Fluttershy and the mention cyan pegasus.
Rarity giving the dragon a soft embrace. Spike returned the hug for a moment then broke it. He then looked at Twilight, the grown purple alicorn pulled him into a tight hug, unleashing another torrent of tears.

Spike didn’t roll his eyes or try and break away from Twilight’s tight grip. The dragon wrapped his arms around her, the two broke their hug and Twilight gave him a kiss on his cheek.

“Good luck Spike, and next time I see you, you better have a bunch of girlfriends and ready to be married,” Twilight stated firmly, making Celestia giggle.

‘Isn't that supposed to be my line?' Celestia thought.

“You’re growing up too fast, it feels just like yesterday. When you were a little baby dragon and following me around helping with all of my tasks.” Twilight said Spike blushed. “And now you’re about to tour the world befriending new faces from different species.”

“I’ll always be your little assistant Twi” The dragon smile.

“And besides I know you well enough to take care of yourself when I’m not around.” There were times where she did know how to take care of herself when Spike was called for royal business from Celestia, or summon by Ember.

Sadly every time he returns him, something was always a mess, usually, the kitchen and library which he was happy to clean up, despite the protest of Twilight and or Starlight.

“Rainbow look after her, I don’t want to come back to find Twilight turn Ponyville... Or Equestria upside down,” Spike said, causing Rainbow to laugh, and Twilight to give a pout.

“All aboard next stop The Crystal Empire!” The conductor yell.

“We’re not going back to the empire.” Cadence Spike looking at Shining who was now wiping his tears away.

”I have to help with the delegates that are visiting Equestria later on today. The prince of the Crystal Empire, as well as the captain of the royal guard, nodded.

“I need to help the guard train some of the new recruits. As well as to help Cadence with the delegations.” The stallion smile. “And you keep Flurry Heart safe, Spike.”

“Don’t worry Shining, I will,” Spike said entering the train.

“I’ll miss you Mommy, Daddy.” Flurry quickly hug her parents before rushing towards the train.

“I’ll keep both him and your daughter safe.” Fizzlepop saluted to the captain to which he saluted back. Before the mare enters the train. The doors closed at the whistle brow saying it was ready to leave.

“Don’t forget to write! If anything bad happens” Twilight cried out.

Spike sat by the window of the train cart that he, Flurry, and Fizzlepop shared, his eyes turn and watch the greenly change from the outside. Who will he meet, and who will bed when he gets to in Griffinstone? Those thoughts Spike clouded mind. The only Griffin he knew was Gilda and that was a long time ago.

Flurry Heart sat next to her secret crush happy about adventuring outside the kingdom. She had heard stories in what it’s like outside of Equestria thanks to the stories Spike told her but her favourite being when he went into the Dragon Lands to complete in the Gauntlet of Fire for the next Dragon Lord.

It was a bit disappointing that he gave up the Bloodstone Scepter to Ember. She believes Spike would make a wonderful Dragon Lord.

“Say, Spike… I was wondering if you… Umm, tell me about the Griffins, since I never been beyond Equestrian borders before.”

Spike just looked at the light pink alicorn then nodded. “Sure, the Griffins greed are equals to that of a dragon when it comes to hoarding. And from what Rainbow told me, that there had this crown thingy which fell to this gouge.”

“Wow it just like one of the comics I read when a gem that supposes to control space fell into gouge with this pony with a red skull following it, but then die when the gem transported them into space.” Flurry Heart said

“Oh, you read Captain Equestria as well?” Spike asked in excitement, never knowing that Flurry was into comics.

“I read almost all of Captain Equestria comics, even the one where he teams up with the power ponies to take down Mane-ic who got her hands on wishing box.” Flurry explain.

“Then there’s The Guardians of Equestria, they are so funny!”

Fizzlepop folded her arms sitting on the opposite side of the listing to Spike and Flurry conversation, which went from telling her about the Griffins to talking about Marevel, Dark Pony Comics, and Private Eye Comics or PEC for short.

It was because Shining Armor wanted to share his love of comic books with his daughter since he still is a huge nerd during his spare time. The hornless unicorn looked outside with the passing trees. She didn’t care much about such childish things, despite them being adults. She had her orders, to protect Spike and Flurry at all cost.

Little did the three know. A pegasus stallion with an ocean blue coat and bright yellow mane was watching them, however, eyes were fixated on Princess Flurry Heart.

“Isn’t that Princess Flurry Heart? Why is she here and not with her hot milf of a mom Cadence and that huge yet lucky nerd Shining Armor? And why is she with that dragon?” The stallion asks himself.

“Maybe she’s returning to the Empire alone? Hehe, here my chance to get into bed with a princess.” The Stallion pulls out a comb from his pocket and back his bright yellow mane with his comb, cracking his fingers and putting on his A-Game. He needs to look his best if he wants to woo the princess after all. The stallion walked up to Spike, Flurry and Fizzlepop who all just stared at him.

“Hey, there princess.” The stallion bow before the princess.” The name’s Bolt Fire, are I saw your blinding beauty since we left Canterlot. Would you like to ditch those two and hang out with a real pony?”

“Sorry, Not interested.” Flurry reply, before turning back to Spike, getting back to the conversation she was having with the drake. “And then Iron Stallion and Thunder Wing fought, clearly if it wasn’t for the suit Metal Star was in it wouldn't be a fair fight.

Bolt Fire couldn’t believe it. He the stallion of many mare dreams. Being ignored for a hornless unicorn, and a dragon of all things. He wasn’t going to give up. He was going to sleep with this mare one way or the other.

“Princess.” The stallion spoke gaining the attention of all three. “I was wondering if.”

“Look I’m sure you’re a great stallion and all, but sadly you’re not my type.” Flurry interrupted. “Now if you don’t mind, I’m talking to my friend here.” The princess finish.

“Really now? Not if I said I’m a fan of the comic book you two are talking about?”

“Look buddy.” Spike begins. “I don’t know if your brain is about the size of a bird but the princess doesn't want anything to do with you? So why don’t you take a hint and leave.”

“Listen, you little fire-breathing gecko Pon-” Bolt Fire couldn’t even finish.

Fizzlepop got up and kicked the pegasus in the stomach with enough to send the stallion on his knees, Fizzlepop then picked him up by the collar of his shirt. Her horn despite being broken came to life. Sparks of lightning flicker out of her horn, her moderate opal coloured eyes glare at the stallion who now regret staying.

“If you ever call my friend a gecko, lizard or a beast around me ever again, or harass the princess I’ll blast your wannabe play-colt ass so deep in Tartarus that you wish Celestia would have sent you to the sun instead.” The hornless mare said. He rapidly nodded his head and once the hornless unicorn lets go of him.

“Good now get lost.” Bolt Fire, ran away scared for his life.

“You’re much cooler than I thought.” Flurry Heart said Fizzlepop rolled her eyes.

“That guy just wanted to have sex with you, and then brag about it with his friends.” The mare let out a soft huff, claiming herself before sitting back to her seat. “So that why I’m here so you two don’t walk in a bear trap or something.” She said

Flurry let out a giggle while Spike rolled his eyes, then glare at Fizzlepop. The hornless unicorn mare just raised up her eyebrow. “Hmm.”

“You stole my victory Fizzle! I was totally going to be Flurry’s knight in shining scales, by knocking out that stallion with a hook, but you went and block it!” Spike cried out, Fizzlepop just stared at the dragon, then laughed at the dragon.

“Sure mister Crystal Savor, but maybe next time Spike, but not while I around. Once you start getting a harem I’ll make sure you be the hero then.” Fizzlepop snicker.

Spike muttered under his breath.

“Don’t worry Spike, you’ll always be my knight and hero.” Flurry said, wrapping her arms around Spike and pulling his head close to her breast. The dragon blushes brightly the soft mound on his arms.

‘What is wrong with me, Flurry is my cousin.’ Spike mind begin. He remembers when Flurry was only a baby and when he was in the Crystal Empire visiting his cousin to foal-sit the pink alicorn when her mom, Twilight, and Shining wet out and Sunburst isn’t around. Spike really did enjoy Flurry company when she grows, and help her when she needs it. School, politics, and magic.

Spike was happy to help the pink alicorn princess. And would either offer advice when she was having a bad day. This would be bad if he started to have some feelings for Flurry Heart, after all, he was her cousin. Spike did his best to pull away from Flurry Heart, not wanting to accept the fact that he was starting to enjoy the feeling of her breast.

Fizzlepop turns away from the pair of them, snickering. ‘Maybe She’ll be the first of Spike’s harem, maybe even the head of his herd.’

Spike finally broke free, turning his head away from the teenage princess. His blush still stayed on his face and stared out the window to get all the lewd thoughts he had about Flurry Heart. Hoping that the pasting trees would take his mind off things.

It worked... For the most part.

Flurry was slightly smiling at having the dragon she loved near her and knowing that he was somewhat the feeling of her breast. She tapped her chin in thought, trying to come up with a plan on winning over Spike’s heart. The only thing or mare standing in her way to winning Spike’s heart was the hornless mare/bodyguard Tempest Shadow.

If she leaves, no doubt she would follow and make sure that creep Bolt Fire wouldn’t show up. Flurry pouted, looking at the hornless unicorn mare bored expression.

“Is there something wrong princess?” Fizzlepop asked wondering if she had something on her face or body with the way Flurry been looking at her.

“Oh, it's nothing.” She lied. “Hey, Spike would you like to um join me in the dining car for lunch... Alone?” Flurry asked to which as on queue the thunderous roar could be heard, making all the ponies that were car turn, to look around for the source.

Spike looked down at his belly. He knew it was going to be a long ride from Canterlot to the Crystal Empire, all the way to the Griffon Kingdom and to Griffinstone. The train was halfway toward the empire. The stomach rubble once more. The dragon blush. “H-Hehe sorry.”

“I take that as a yes then.” The alicorn giggle as well as the hornless mare. She, however, wave them off, she needed time to herself anyway.

“I’ll be here if you need anything,” Fizzlepop spoke before turning her head towards the glass watching the faraway towns pass by.

This was Flurry chance to tell Spike how she feels. She knew she was his cousin and it was wrong. Flurry knew that she and Spike weren’t related by blood, heck there wasn’t even in the same species. She also wonders how would her father and mother feel about her dating Spike?

Cadence would welcome the idea and give them her blessing, but Flurry’s father Shining Armor was another story. He too would open interspecies relationships with open arms, and maybe give his own stallion advice. However when it comes to Flurry, he would rather see them pass ‘serval’ tests to see if the suitor was even worthy to even talk to his daughter, and Spike was the last pony, or in this cause dragon, he would be mad at.

Moving from her seat The pink alicorn rose follow by Spike. She then grabs Spike’s arm and walked over to the dining car with the dragon following her.

The dining car on trains was on the front of the train. The decor was as much as one would expect. White transparent sheets drape over the windows giving it a hint of elegance. The tables were also cover in white sheets with the normal salt, pepper, napkins, ketchup, mustard.

Before they were a stallion unicorn who look in his mid to late forties stood behind a wooden podium. His coat was a lightish grey with his mane slick back which shines under the light where he stood alone with the tail being a darker shade.

To the two he looks like a much younger version of the princess personal/head butlers in Canterlot. The stallion bright yellow eyes looked at the two making there way to the car, one was a Pink alicorn with a purple and green scaled dragon. He was wearing short sleeve violet shirt with a green dragon symbol in the middle with matching pants. Instantly knew who it was.

“Princess Flurry Heart!” The good dress stallion spoke. “It an honour having you dine with us. And I guessing table for two?” The stallion asked.

“Yes, a table for me and my um… friend.” The princess smile.

“Right this way.” The stallion picked up two menus and walked them through the clean dinner where he sat them next to a window. He then places the two menus down in front of the couple.

“A server will be right with you.” And with that, the stallion move back to the back of the car.

Both the alicorn and dragon open the menus to see what they want, and to their surprise found that this dinner server.

Meat.

Cooked steak, grill fish and chicken strips were one of a few items that could be sever

Normally the only other place that would even consider offering meat was the royal castle and that was only for ambassadors and delights for other lands wishing to discuss trade, or treaty among Equestria.
Spike wasn't disgusted at all since a dragon diet considers of meat in order to grow. And there was a time where he would eat meat such as rabbit, steak, chicken, ham, bacon, and beef and that was only when he visited Celestia for royal business.

Flurry Heart was another cause. She even sticks out her tongue in disgust for even reading the menu. “Who would even sever something so disgusting and horrible to a train full of ponies?” The princess asks, only to see Spike look at her with a deadpan expressing.

“Well first of all; This train is heading towards the Griffin Kingdom so most if not all the Griffins there eat meat since part of them are big cats so it would make sense for them to sever meat here. And second; I really don’t tell any pony this but I eat meat as well.” Spike explains making the light pink alicorn eyes widen. “It apart of my diet.”

Before Flurry could speak a forest green unicorn mare with a dark shade of green mane pop out of nowhere. She was wearing a white shirt with black dress pants. She wore a matching apron that held her notepad and pen.

“Hello, Princess and Mister Dragon.” Her voice was as cheery as Pinkie. “My name is Nature Green and I’ll be your server for this lovely afternoon.” She pulls out her notepad and pen. “So can I start you off with a drink?”

“I’ll have um.” Spike flip the single page of his menu. “I take the lime soda,” Spike spoke with Nature writing it down.

“And I’ll have what he’s having.” The princess spoke.

Nature nodded and walked off to get the drinks. As there sit Flurry Heart her eyes glaze lovely at the dragon she loves. Spike notice this, his cheeks turning a bit red. Before he could say anything Nature returns with two glasses of there drink. “Now if you're ready to order let me know. She took out a notepad and pen.

“I’ll take a steak well done?” Spike said taking a sip of his drink. The mare only nodded understanding since she has severed meat to predatory creatures before, mostly it was the Griffin and on some occasion a Minotaur and a Diamond Dog so she was used to this request.

“And for you princess?” Nature asks turning to the princess.

“Hay burger with hay fries. No Tomatoes.” The waitress nodded writing down Flurry’s order. Once done she took the menus.

“Your orders are coming right up.” She said walking toward the front of the train to place there order in.

“So Um Flurry.” Spike begin taking a sip of his drink.

“I’m not surprised.” The alicorn also sips her drink. “I figure that even since you help Ember become Dragon Lord that she taught you all about dragon culture.”

“Yea.” Spike twiddling his claws together. “I mean I can ask for-” Spike was interrupted by a finger to his lips.

“Spike.” Flurry reach over and place her hand on his hand. “It ok. I only wish there sever gems here for you.” The light pink alicorn smile. “And besides it going to be a while before we reach Griffin territory so might as well use this time enjoy.”

The dragon sitting across from her just nodded.

A moment later there food had arrived. “For the dragon a well down a prime steak with a side of french fries.” Nature said placing a place of a well down forty ounces prime steak with diamond grill marks on both top and bottom, and on to it side an array of golden fries season with salt to enhance the taste.

The smell alone was intoxicating to all predatory creatures but revolting to anyone else. “And for the princess; Hay burger with a side of hay fries.” Nature place the place down before the princess. “Just call if you need anything else.” The mare smile soon walking way to sever the next customer.

“Well, then I’m starving.” Grabbing the knife and fork, the dragon begins to slice down on the juice of meat before him, and eat it. Flurry did the same.

After eating and paying for there meal (which Spike thank his mother and sister that gave him enough bits) and a few hours of rest the train finally arrived at a town called Talon’s Point. And much to their surprise the city buzzing with life. Diamond Dogs, Minotaur, and ever a few dragons roam the town. After getting the directions (And paying a Griffin for a map to Griffinstone) there needed Spike, Fizzlepop and Flurry Heart follow a path on a large mountain.

Flurry wore a winter black hoodie and a red beanie covering her ears and parts of her mane. Spike wore a winter purple coat with matching jeans. Spike at a time enjoy the cold but he knew one of a few fatal weakness of a dragon and that was the cold. His scales and body heat would help him stay warm for a while. Lucky for them the sun only reaches its peak.

Fizzlepop who was wearing a black winter hoodie and violet winter jeans hold close to to the dragon, trying to sharing the heat from his dragon body, even with Fizzlepop being taller than the male dragon with Spike only reaching up to her shoulders. Flurry just pouted and did the same causing the dragon to blush.

The three of them enter the ruined kingdom of Griffinstone, houses and buildings were torn and destroy with the creatures called Griffins still living and fighting with each other. It was an utter war zone here. Flurry Heart was the first one that enters and fell to the ground in from a Griffin running pass her knocking the princess to the ground with a soft thud. Spike and Fizzlepop got ready for a fight between a mad Griffin wanting to get them off their lands.

“Oh! You’re one of Princess of Equestria, that’s cool! Nice to meet you, sorry for knocking you over, I was in a rush, oh also it’s amazing that I’m meeting one of the princesses of Equestria.” A female Griffin said, picking up Flurry and shaking her hand rapidly up and down.

Spike blinked, Fizzlepop looked at him. “Hello, Gabby,” Spike spoke.

Gabriella or Gabby for short, she was the only one smiling and beaming at the three travellers. Her eyes were moderate turquoise, wearing a coat being Arctic bluish grey and long light grey pants that hugged her fine looking ass. With her feathers is Arctic bluish and finally a grey head with light cornflower bluish grey chin and light cyanish grey markings, dark azureish grey wings and her Talons are brilliant gold, triple A-Cup breast.

Spike knew about her from The Cutie Mark Crusaders, but that’s when she was eleven, but now at the age eighteen and Gabby is smoking hot and was a bit surprised that she wasn’t apart of Scootaloo herd. Spike couldn’t tear his eyes off her, the female Griffin turn and blush at the site of the purple dragon and moved back to Fizzlepop.

“Who are you?” Gabby asked Fizzlepop rolled her eyes.

“Call me Tempest Shadow, or Tempest for short.” The homeless mare said, Gabby scratch her hair.

“Nice to see you again Gabby,” Spike said, holding out his hand, Gabby smiled at him and taking his claw into her claw.

“It’s nice to see you again Spike. You look umm… Good.” Gabby said, looking into his alluring green coloured eyes.

Flurry folded her arms, glaring at the female Griffin, her eyes flared with jealousy, knowing what she felt when Gabby grab her hand. How dare she trying to take Spike away from her. Who in the hell she think she was. Yes, she does have the body. Flurry looks down at her own…

‘Maybe Spike doesn't find me attractive? No I know he likes me.’

When that Griffin saw Spike, Flurry felt Gabby’s love become much stronger, maybe this whole trip was more than she bargained for. Fizzlepop let out a small chuckle.

“It looks like you have some competition if I remember Griffins love conflict,” Fizzlepop said, Flurry muttered something under her breath.

“Come, I must show you guy and girls everything! This is the greatest thing ever! Besides becoming a Cutie Mark Crusader or that one time where I found a bit in the couch cushions, Or when I help a Phoenix who was lost find it parents but besides that, best day ever!’” Gabby cried out, causing other Griffins to look over at them.

“The thing is Gabby, we came here because I need to um well… Find consorts.” Spike said Gabby froze in place.

“You see, Princess Celestia wants me to create a harem. One of each species to become my wife's.” Spike explains, Gabby smiled, picturing her and Spike with Princess Celestia behind them, making them husband and wife.

The female Griffin turn fast to face Spike, the smile on her face showed all of her emotions, she took Spike shoulders, bringing his face closer towards hers.

“Well, that’s easy. Most Griffins used to mate with Dragons since we Griffins always went after big strong warriors, but mostly for their treasure.” Gabby explains Flurry pulled the Griffin away from him by the collar with her magic.

“Well, I rather have I girl that I love for her personally. Not because of her body or skills.” Spike explains.

“Well since you’re here, let me show you around.” While Gabby showed them around, the Griffin was getting rather close to Spike, other female Griffins would glare in jealous, unable to do anything, with Gabby having already performed a mating ritual for the male dragon that enters Griffinstone. One such thing was puffing up her chest to draw Spike’s attention which works for the most part.

Flurry Heart decides to explain to Gabby about the broken statue she saw at the front. Gabby tapped her chin, Spike thought that she looked adorable whenever the Griffin was trying to figure something out. She snapped her fingers together coming up with an idea.

“The old castle might have something. I think I have seen it here and there, but no Griffin never stole it. If it’s not gold, then it’s not treasure.” Gabby said, pointing her index finger at the group, while she flew in the air.

The group followed Gabby towards the broken down castle, and Flurry went to Spike’s side, he wrapped his arm around the teenage princess, Gabby’s cheerful attitude never fading, not even seeing the Princess in the arms of the dragon.

Gabby landed on the ground, digging through the trash, giving her ass a shake that Spike couldn’t take his eyes off. Both Fizzlepop and Flurry elbow him in his side, seeing that she only reached up to his chest. Spike didn’t even feel Flurry’s elbow due to his scales being as hard as steel, and it didn’t help that he was wearing his winter clothing. Either that or he just didn’t care, the male dragon had already decided on who will be his second consort.

“I found it!” Gabby yelled out, pulling out two legs and right wing.

The female Griffin let out a scream, a bright magic bolt shot at her. Gabby accidentally dropped it down the abyss, the four of them turn to saw a stallion with a grey mane, wrinkles on his face, his golden locket shined in the bright sun, he gave a slight smile, his eyes locked on Flurry Heart.

“I spy with my little eye, an Alicorn that I need to kill.” He said, causing Flurry to swallow in fear.

To Be Continued….

Author's Note

Now, I got a question to ask, what would you like better, the story and Spike calling her Fizzlepop with everyone else calling her Tempest or the story and everyone calling her Tempest and Spike calling her Fizzlepop? I'll leave up to everyone in the comments.

I decided to based Gabby off these two pictures, meaning that she doesn't have an beck, because I'm sure that it's impossible that two griffins can kiss. Meaning that she has a somewhat human body, and welcome to the Harem Gabby. I been meaning on making another Spike x Gabby story.
