Chapter 7: Dragon and the key

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Spike was continuing to look at the sword within his hand. This feeling that is calling to him, it's unnatural, but it almost seems protective at the same time. He continues to look at the engravings on the blade and tilts his head, confused as to why there is a prediction of a dragon within the blade. Spike is confused as to why it looks like a key, is there a reason this was made for battle use.

The coach looked at Spike and spoke, "So you've taken a liking to the key-blade I see. That sword was used by the famous Dragon Kight Sir Dorrorth Rambath. He was an excellent soldier and was in the original war between the dragons and the leaders."

Spike looked at the blade with awe, seeing such a weapon used in an old war. Even used by the most famous Dragon Knight there was. Spike didn't know why this was calling to him but it was. He held the blade within his hands for a few more minutes and then he looked back at the coach.

"Sir, would it be ok if I tried this weapon out? I know it has such a history but would it be ok?" Spike asked as he continued to hold the blade. He tried swinging it a few times, and he noticed that the sword seemed almost like it was made for him. It felt balanced and light enough that he could grip it firmly. But then at the same time, it was sturdy and rigid enough to cut through almost anything.

Coach Biceps looked at Spike and then at how he was swinging the sword. "I don't see why not young Spike" The coach had a small grin on his face as he saw his student using the sword. It reminded him of the Dragon Knight.

Flashback - 20 Years Ago

A younger coach Biceps, then known as Commander Biceps was fighting alongside an 8-foot tall purple dragon. Both of them were back to back, fighting against other Dragons that were trying to destroy the duo.

"Well Durroth, this may be it for us. I want to say that it's been a nice run with you" Commander Biceps yelled out as he turned his head to look at the side of his partner,

The huge dragon looked back and down at his human partner nodding, a snarky grin on his face. "This isn't the end of us my old friend. Only the beginning of the future of the new world. Don't give up on us just yet!"

The dragon said with a ferocious roar. Durroth took his blade in hand and started to spin it at a quick pace. The Sword becoming a big chain rapping around the enemies. Once the sword was rigid, he look into the leader of the enemy team - "Go burn in Hell!" - Once he said that the sword erupted into flames and the enemy dragons burst into ashes and magma.

The young Biceps looked at his partner as he whipped the sword and it returned into its original form. After this was done, the dragon knelt onto his knee and started to pant vigorously, and looked at Biceps.

"Thank you for everything that you have done for us Biceps. It is an honor fighting at your side." The dragon prayed at the ashes of the fallen dragons then rested his claws on top of his knee. The dragon closed his eyes while having a warm smile on his face. He then took out a picture within his large jacket. It had a pale white woman and a human version of Durroth on behind her. While the woman was holding a small baby with spiky purple hair.

The current Biceps opened his eyes and looked at Spike that was standing before him. "Say, son have you used a blade before in your life?" Spike looked at Biceps and nodded.

"Yes, I have Coach! When I was around 10, for my birthday I received a small wooden sword and an old friend of the family showed me the basics of swordsmanship. I've been practicing every day ever since then." Spike responded as he continued to swing the sword around. The Coach nodded and put his hands within his pockets.

"Well, I say that you have chosen the right weapon for you. Why don't you go back to the bleachers and take care of that weapon? It has been through hell and back," Coach biceps gestured.

After Spike was done talking with Biceps, he noticed Rainbow Dash was waving over to spike. Within her hand, she had a bladed weapon in the shape of a boomerang. She looked ecstatic as he was flailing the weapon around without anyone near her.

"Hey Rainbow, What do you got there?" Spike asked as Rainbow stopped swinging her weapon around. "I honestly don't have a clue. Someone said it was a double schmitar? But I am gonna call it a bladed boomerang!" Rainbow exclaimed as he was jumping around acting as if she was a ninja.

"Hiya!" Exclaimed Rainbow Dash as she tried to do a jump kick into the air but then fell onto her bum when she was not able to land on her feet. Spike walked over to her and reached his hand out to her.

"Nice kick there Ninja Dash," Spike said as he helped her up. "Maybe you should work on your landings first before trying to become an actual ninja." Rainbow then whacked him in the head. "I am Rainbow Dash! I don't need to work on anything!" She then chuckled and looked at Spike with a grin.

Before anyone else was able to continue their conversations Coach Biceps blew his whistle. "Alright Maggots, it's the end of your training day. Tomorrow will be the new drills with your special weapon Instructors. Get ready because this will be your time to shine!" Everyone started to walk out of the stadium.

Spike and Rainbow Dash exited the stadium and arrived at the Cafeteria. It was their lunch period, as they sat down the group noticed both Spike and Dash at their table and sat down.

"Well Spike, how has your first day at your new school going so far?" Asked Twilight, as she sat down at the table. The whole group took out their lunch while Spike did not. He didn't prepare his lunch before he arrived due to not knowing the school did not have an in-house kitchen. Both Pinkie and AppleJack noticed this and looked at Spike.

"Hey there, why didn't you bring your lunch today?" Pinkie asked as she had a concerned look. She did not feel happy when people were not able to enjoy themselves and not be able to have food. "Well hold on there Pinkie, Spike here is new I reckon' that he didn't prepare one for himself. Here suga' cube you can have an apple fritter o' mine. Our family makes them around here." Apple Jack responded to Pinkie as she handed him the warm apple fritter on a plate.

Pinkie nodded and grabbed an extra sandwich that she had within her bag. "Well Spike, I was going to save this for later for a snack. But you need this more than I do!" Pinkie exclaimed as he slid the sandwich towards the man. "Thank you Pinkie and AppleJack. How can I repay you for this?" Spike asked as he opened up the sandwich and put it on the plate next to the fritter.

"Well after school you can help me out with my homework. Twilight here said that you were a great mathematician in grade school." Applejack said as she smiled. Spike's cheeks radiated warmth as they turned pink, in response he started to rub the back of his neck. "Well, I can definitely do that for you Applejack. And what else did Twilight say about me?" Spike looked over at Twilight, and when she saw this. Twilight grew a deep blush on her cheeks and glared over to Applejack. Throwing a napkin at her. "You did not need to tell him that AppleJack!"
