It was early in the morning in the town of ponyville. The town was quite small, it had a feeling of comfort and peace. It was quite peaceful as there were not many residents moving around on the roads today. Either the people were setting up their shops for the later market buzz, or it was the mares watering their gardens, A male with green hair was standing next to his mailbox fidgeting, he was getting excited that today should be the day that a letter that he has been expecting for quite some time should be arriving on that day. He then saw the mare that he had been so anxious to see. He saw that she was walking to his house and he tried to calm himself down.

"Hello there, Derpy How are you?" Spike asked the gray mare that was approaching him.

"Not Bad, Mr. Drago, Yourself?" She said as he was looking in her bag for the mail.

"Any Mail for me today?" He said as he watched the female look inside the bag that was full of envelopes and packages.

The mare was still looking as she saw the house number and nodded. She grabbed the envelopes that was bundled in a rubber band and handed it to the male.

"Have a nice day spike, I will see you around?" Derpy said with a smile and walked off.

The male standing there is named Spike Drago. He is a 17-year-old boy, that was born with the green hair he is mostly known for. He has been living there mostly his life. He was not living with his parents due to an accident that happened when he was still a newborn, so the house that he lives in belongs to his adopted mother Celestia, and Adopted Aunt Luna.
He started to look through the letters. Most of them were either bills or junk, but one of the letters caught his eye. The seal on the envelope was of gold color and it was known to be for the Royal Knight Academy. A glimmer in his eyes shined when he saw this and did waste any time in opening up that seal. This letter was important to him because two months ago he applied to an academy to train to be a knight or to train to become a leader. Soon after reading the contents Spike fist-bumped the air and said yes to himself. The letter was an acceptance letter to the Academy. The letter said that he should report to the academy at 7:00 PM today to have a tour around the campus. After he read the entire letter he soon started to pack some of his clothes for the trip to the academy. Included in his letter is an Airplane ticket because the academy is situated on an island. After Spike was done packing up his belongings it was 5:00 PM. He Quickly exited his home to arrive at the airport.

After the long flight to the academy, he has arrived to be on time. Spike thought to himself,
"well this is lucky the airport is just next to the academy and I can walk there easily."

Spike just started his way to the Academy thinking that it will just be a normal tour of the campus, but boy was he wrong. After his walk from the airport, he arrived at the front gate of the campus. The doors where already open so he walked in and looked around the front area where he saw many students walking and socializing with each other. When the students saw Spike walked in some of the students started to whisper to each other containing questions like, “ Is that the new guy” or “he’s cute is he single”. Spike sighed while thinking to himself,

”Did I forget that this school has a population mostly filled with females.”

Without hesitation, he started to walk a little faster so he could reach the front doors without any problems. When he entered the school the hallways were spacious with plenty of room for students to go to and from their classes.

“Woah, when the pamphlet said that it was a sight to behold they weren’t kidding,” said spike when he took a look around the main lobby.

After a few minutes of sightseeing, Spike didn’t have any directions to the principal's office, so he started to look around to find a student that could help him.

When Spike was walking around the hallway, he bumped into a female with purple hair with a streak of pink in it.
"Oops I'm Sor-" Said Spike when he saw the said girl he bumped into.

Flashback
"Come on Spike, we don't have all day," said a little girl looking at a younger Spike. This version of Spike looked like he was 10 years old and she was 11. The younger Spike started to chase the little girl.

A few hours later
**
Younger Spike and the little girl
"Hey, Twilight I have some news I have to tell you." Younger Spike sighed before saying,
"My father got a new job and we have to move."
Twilight started to cry and say to him, "I don't want you to go, please Spike, stay with me" Spike responded,
"I'm Sorry Twilight but I have to go."

The day he moved

Spike was looking out the back window of his parent's car waving bye to the young Twilight
End of Flashback

Spike just looked at an older Twilight and got up and dusted himself off.

"I'm sorry but I have to go; But do you know where the principal's office is?"

The girl looked at Spike and had a little-shocked expression but didn’t want to show it, so she said that the principal’s office was just around the corner to the left. Spike gave her thanks and started to walk to the principal’s office. One of the girls of the group wearing a stetson asked the girl,

”Twi what was that about, I saw that look do you know him”

The girl who was named Twilight Sparkle responded,

”I think so, he kinda resembled an old friend of mine from my childhood.”

The girl in the Stetson just shook her head in an understanding way and stayed quiet. The group kept walking after that.

***Back to Spike***

A few short minutes after meeting the group of women he approached the principal’s door.
“Hello is anyone there?” asked Spike as he walked into the office, a woman with purple pink and a gold-colored hair stood up from out of her chair and greeted Spike,

“Hello you must be our new student, my name is Principal Cadence and what might your name be?”
“My name is Spike and yes I am the new student,” replied Spike. Cadence smiled a bit and asked,
“what made you apply for our school anyways?” Spike replied,
“When I was younger I loved to play around with swords and such. So when I saw the opportunity to join a school where I could live up to that likeness of mine I took the opportunity.”

Cadence just shook her head with a satisfied grin and she said,
“now I know you have a map of our school but I have requested one of our students to show you around the campus. Is that ok with you?” Spike nodded his head yes.

So Cadence took her intercom and announced throughout the school,

“Can Ms.Sparkle come to the main office please I repeat can Ms.Sparkle come to the main office please, thank you.”

A few minutes after the announcement there was a knock on the principal's door. Cadence said, “Come in” and Twilight walked through the door.
“Hello Principal Cadence I was called?” said Twilight when she walked in.
Cadence replied, “Yes, can you please show Mr.Drago around the school?”
When Twilight heard that name all she could say was “S-spike?”
