Training Arc: Part 1

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The trio while sitting within the car was talking up a storm, talking about how they have been watching over Spike for the years that he has been alone. And how that Spike has become quite the strong warrior even without proper training. Spike, while still very young was lean, he had muscles, which were barely visible giving him a smaller frame than he is strong. After a few minutes of continued talking, the group arrived at a large house, almost mansion-like. In front of the house, there were large lawns, both having a fountain respectively. There were large archways made out of what seemed like grass on top of the pathway towards the front door. The building itself was made out of dark red brick, the windows surrounded by white siding and the roof being black with a large chimney on the right side. The lawns themselves were neatly cared for, dark lines next to light lines all around the area, with the fountains emitting a rainbow-like glow in the sky as the mist entered the air.

The view itself was quite breathtaking Spike thought as he was looking around the area, He never imagined that he would ever have seen a house that was this beautiful. When he took a look at the front door of the building, he noticed a large group of people standing there, he had never seen these people before and wondered why they were there. The car slowed down and then was put to a stop when the back doors were in front of the walkway, the Driver who in conversation was named Alfred, got out of the car and opened the door next to spike.

"Welcome home young master Spike, Master Dorroth, and Mistress Celestia. I hope you do have a wonderful rest of your day." Alfred stood there speaking to the trio and once all three got out of the car.

He then closed the door and went back into the vehicle. Alfred then drove away leaving the trio looking at the house.

"Well son, this is where you will be training and living during your training sessions and during the holidays. I hope you can settle in nicely" Dorroth exclaimed as he looked over at the young boy. Spike then looked at his father with a smile and nodded - "I will dad, but who are those people?" - Spike asked as he pointed to the large group of people. Upon closer inspection, everyone was wearing either a black suit, a chef apron, or a maid dress.

The older man laughed loudly as he wrapped his arm around the boy, "Well Spike, let's go greet them. They have been dying to meet you for quite some time now!"

All three of them then walked towards the house, as Spike was looking around the area. He noticed that the area around the house was larger than appeared. Most of the walking space was covered in trees as a fence of sorts. Closing off any view from unwanted viewers trying to look inside of the property. Spike smiled as he could not wait to find out what else was around the building. He then looked at his father, he noticed that he seemed young, probably in his early 40's the grey beard made him look older than he actually was. He saw scrapes and cuts on his shoulders showing how many battles he has been in, the danger he endured. He had large muscles and it fitted him, he looked as if he could break you in half but he was kind and caring. Dorroth never wanted to leave his son, it was never considered until the day that he was surrounded by other dragons. He never meant for his family to get in danger but it happened, and every day he had grief. Spike learned all of this when talking on his way to the house he is currently at. But he still does not have some of the answers he wished he had.

Dorroth noticed that his son was looking upon him, so he looked over at Spike and gave him a large smile. The smile coming from his face was near if not godlike. It was warm, but also showed the care of the father he was towards his wife and his son. The trio was in front of the group, everyone except for Spike, Celestia, and Dorroth bowed.

"Grettings Master Spike!" They all exclaimed as they returned back to their posture looking at the young man.

Spike had a light blush upon his face at all of the attention that was towards him. Spike was never one to have so much attention on him, which made him quite shy. He looked at everyone, and he noticed that most of the female staff that was looking at him had a blush on their face. One, in particular, looked as young as him. She noticed this and her blush deepen and turned her head slightly.

"Hello there Master Spike," Said the female said to the male as she stepped forward, "My name is Starlight Glimmer," She said as she gained the courage to look at the male again. She took a deep breath and smiled, "I will be your personal Maid if there is anything that is required of me. Please let me know" She said as she bowed and then moved back into place.

Spike smiled and nodded, looking at Starlight. He then looked over at his father and chuckled, "Did you always have such a huge mass of workers here? or is this something new?" Dorroth laughed loudly and put his hand onto his son's left shoulder. he looked down at his son, "Yes son, they have always been here. They have taken care of this house since we were in the realm where your mother was living before we came here. We needed this house to be taken care of in case of either your or our arrival." Dorroth said calmly as he brought Spike closer to his frame.

The group all walked inside the house, soon after so did Spike and his parents. Spike looked around in awe as he saw the luxurious inside, it was much more defined than it was outside. The entrance room was filled with candles, a few led lights that were on the walls, a chandelier hanging from the ceiling, covered in clear crystal. Lights powered on, lighting the room quite a bit to make everything visible. On both sides of the room, there were staircases that rose up to the second floor, the stairs curving to their respective sides. On the right side, there was a doorway, with a spruce-colored door that was leading towards the main living room. And on the left it seemed as there was a mudroom, leading to the outside garden and tennis field. Spike looked up the steps to see what was there but he could only see the ceiling and two doorways, there was no hints as to what was up on the second floor. Spike looked at his parents and followed them into another wing of the building. It seemed to look like a large gym, all three of them entered and Spike was amazing as to what was inside of the gyn. There were giant dumbells, weight lifting bars that seemed to be the length of 40 feet, a regular treadmill, and then a treadmill that seemed to have been modified. There was another set of weights but seemed to be a normal set for a human, and then an area for archery and sword fighting. Spike couldn't believe how much stuff was inside of this one area and could only guess how much all of it costed, some of it seemed to be custom made for this specific type of usage.

Dorroth stood in the middle of the room with a large smile on his face, "Well Spike, this is where I'll be training you for the next 10 months. The teachers did not tell you, but School is out of session for first years until their training has been completed. Meaning you are to stay here until you are prepared for your school's prep. Until then, we are going to be training your combat abilities until you are a master of that blade. But tomorrow, we are bringing you into the familiar forest. We are going to get you a familiar, all knights and leaders have a familiar or multiple leaders." Dorroth crossed his arms and transformed into his dragon form. "This son, is my families dragon form. You by having my blood shall unlock this form with the proper training, and the strength used to turn into a dragon that you will be the greatest knight of all!! You Spike shall be The DragonBlood Knight!!!" Dorroth yelled as he raised his fist into the air as he roared with all the air in his lungs.

Spike looked at his father with a large smile and raised his own fist in the air. He could not believe his father was such a strong being, he looked at the room preparing ahead for the vigorous training that he will be enduring for the next 10 months. While this was happening, Starlight was walking through the hallways looking for Spike herself, she was asked to show him to his room so that he could be settled in by the lead butler. Starlight blushed as she saw Spike and his father in the gym hyping up for what was going to happen. She entered the room and stood next to spike - "Master Spike, would you like me to show you to your room?" - Starlight asked.

Spike looked over at Starlight and smiled warmly at her, noticing she was getting shy, "that would be great Starlight." Spike spoke as he turned around, "hey Dad? Im going to go to my room, Starlight here is going to show me the way!"

Dorroth nodded as he gained a small smirk on his face, he knew that Starlight would gain a crush on Spike. He wanted to make sure that he would have a good woman with him. What Spike did not know was, that dragons are ones to have harems. Dorroth knew this, and wanted to surprise Spike with this, he knew he had a large infatuation with Twilight but wanted him to get used to multiple girls after him. Dorroth waved at Spike, "Alright! Im going to do some regime planning to maximize how much you will grow and properly be healthy!" Dorroth then exited the gym, with Celestia following her husband. "Remember Spike, Dinner will be ready at 6 please don't be late." Celestia asked Spike softly and exited the gym chuckling to herself.

Spike smiled softly and looked at Starlight, "Well ma'am please lead the way, I was looking to look around the house myself. But I know I would get lost for sure" Spike chuckled as he joked with the housekeeper. Starlight blushed a bit more and nodded, as she walked down the hallway towards the room wing of the house. "W-well Master Spike-" Spike shook his head, "Please Starlight, Master makes me feel old, just call me Spike" Spike looked at Starlight. "Of course Ma-Spike. Like I was going to ask. How are you liking the house so far? We have been taking care of this house to the best of our abilities." Starlight asked as her hands were held close to her stomach as she kept her head forward and turned right into the hallway where Spikes room was.

"Well Starlight, to be quite honest..Its huge, I never expected to ever live in a house like this. I grew up in a tiny home, learning to love what I was gifted by the watchers above, never to indulge too much. But this will take some time to get used to. And the house looks amazing, it must have taken quite the amount of effort to take care of this house during this whole time of my parents being gone." Spike told the female as the stopped in front of him room.

Starlight shook her head and smiled brightly at the male, "Of course not Spike! It is no trouble at all, we are hired to take care of this house and we shall do it perfectly and to the T. Well I must be going." She said as she handed Spike a small device. "Here you go, if you ever need anything at all please don't hesitate. All you need to do is push the button on that buzzer and it will send a notification to my phone that you need my help." Starlight bowed in front of Spike and walked away towards to where she was needed.

Spike smiled and waved as Starlight walked away, Spike opened the door and walked inside of his room and saw how big it was. The room had a king sized bed, a 55 inch 4k TV, with a Wardrobe next to it. On the right side of the room there was a door that was open that led to a walk in closed and on the other side was the enterence to his very own bathroom. The room itself was pained blue with not many decorations around, Other than the TV, there was 2 windows near the headboard of the bed, showing the now sunsetting sky, and the large garden that was in the back of the property. Spike plopped onto the bed and sighed, getting ready for the new chapter of his life with his now reunited family. He closed his eyes taking a small nap waiting for six when his mother will call him.
