POV: Spike

"I swear Wolk, you better not die on me...." I was sitting on top of Wolks back as he was asleep. Its also the next day after the fight with Discord.

After the fight we all about joined Wolk when it came to sleep. That whole commotion that happened yesterday pretty much wiped out all of us.

I heard hooves behind me and I heard voices and when I turned around I saw the girls and the princesses. The princesses sure didn't waste anytime getting down here.

I quickly got on my knee and said "Princess Celestia and Luna it is good to see-".

"It's all right Spike you don't need to kneel there isn't anything formal going on," Celestia said with a calm relaxed voice.

Twilight spoke "So Princess Celestia what we're you saying about going into his head?"

"Wait what? We're going into his head....why if I might ask?" I said slightly intrigued with the idea.

"The ponies in Canterlot are willing to accept Wolk as a guardian of the city. But of course the nobles don't want Wolk anywhere near the city so they want to know about him. However nopony knows a thing about him and personally I kinda want to know too." Celestia finished explaining and if course made a bunch of questions pop up in my head but they can wait.

I raised my eyebrow and said "Wait you don't know a thing about him, but I thought you and Luna spent time with him. He should've mentioned something about his past."

Luna only shook her head "Not a thing, the only thing he ever talked about was defeating another dragon named Alduin with something called a Dragonborn or as the dragons call it a 'Dovahkiin' whatever that means."

I didn't feel comfortable with idea of going into Wolks head. I mean it kinda feels like an invasion of privacy.

Rarity then asked "How do you suppose we get into Wolks head princess?"

Celestia replied saying "Luna can use her magic to get us through and into his mind. But when she is going to do it it will take is to one of his memories randomly, we hope that we go into a memory not to far before he came to Equestria."

"I-I-Is it dangerous?? Will it hurt him?" asked a very nervous Fluttershy who was in the back behind everyone.

Luna replied quickly saying "He won't feel a thing Fluttershy and besides he's a tough dragon even if it did hurt he probably wouldn't feel it."

Seeing Fluttershy get all nervous was starting to make me nervous. But my curiosity was getting the better of me. I was also curious about Wolks past, however from the scars he has on his wings and stomach, and from his powers I'm almost afraid to see it.

Applejack then asked "What do ya reckon will happen to us when we go in?"

Luna answered saying "We will all end up in the sleeping trance he is in right now. But do not fear, when we leave his mind we should all wake up."

Princess Celestia then said to all of us "Come we must get ready to enter his mind while the two of us can stay here before we have to go to Canterlot."

We all stood next to each other and we all waited for Princess Luna to cast her magic. Her horn started to glow and the light began to surround all of us. All of the sudden it became dark and all of the sudden we were in a field.

I looked to my right and saw all of the girls and both of the princesses. I heard Rarity say "Umm did you take us to the right place princess Luna?"

Luna replied saying "We are in his mind but I can't seem to do anything. So I think we are in a memory."

"I thought you were able to control this kinda thing princess, can't you?" I heard a confused Rainbow say.

Celestia beat Luna to the punch and said "She can only control dreams not memories, since this is in the past she can't change anything here."

I was about to say something until we heard a roar that sounded very familiar. We all turned to see two dragons, one of which was familiar while the other wasn't.

POV: Wolkiimrel (Past)

The traitor is getting away!!!! I will not let one of these rebellious dragons think they can escape me. I was gaining on the injured dragons tail and prepared to bring him down.

FO KRAH DIIN

The ice blast slammed into him and with a roar of pain began to fall towards the ground. I didn't feel bad for him, Alduin was very clear that he wanted me to show no mercy to him.

He smashed into the ground and was about to get up had I not land on him. My foot was on his neck and I began to press my foot down on it, I know dragon scales are tough but he was already injured on his neck during our previous fight.

I just kept applying pressure until he finally said "Wolk stop this madness!" Whatever ever else he was going to say was cut off when I put all of my force on his neck.

I noticed that he was struggling to breathe, I felt no remorse for him. Finally I gave him a quick death when I dug the claws on my back leg through the wound on his neck. For whatever reason I felt kinda disappointed that he didn't fight back that well.

I stepped away from his body as it started to glow orange. I just sat back and watched as his skin started to wither away. I then bowed my head a little and said "Farewell traitor.......may Akatosh have mercy on your soul."

I then looked down at my bloody claws and smirked. I flew up into the air and began to make my way back to Alduin to report the traitors death.

POV: Spike

I couldn't believe what I saw, I didn't expect such brutality from Wolk. I don't think the girls were either cause when I looked over Fluttershy was shaking violently behind the princesses. Rarity passed out all the while Applejack was trying to wake her up and Rainbow, Pinkie and Twilight looked like they were sick.

It took a couple minutes for everyone to maintain their composure before Celestia spoke. "We will go forward when he isn't so being so violent...." I noticed the saddened look on both of the princesses faces.

I heard Twilight say from behind me "That would be a good idea, I don't think my stomach can handle this...."

Luna's magic activated and we were all suddenly on top of a mountain. We all heard the flapping of wings and when we turned we saw Wolk coming in for a landing.

(Third person)

When Wolk landed he began to wait, all of the sudden a roar was heard and a dragon with dark scales landed in front of Wolk.

Wolk immediately bowed his head and said "Alduin the traitorous dragon has been eliminated....."

The dragon Alduin chuckled a little, "Good soon all the dragons will be back in Skyrim and we will take this land for our own..."

He turned his head and looked off the side of the mountain. He continued to speak "After we take Skyrim, all of Tamriel will be next...."

Wolk just said in a calm voice "Where else am I needed Alduin or am I free to roam Skyrim?"

Alduin answered saying "Yes......there is one dragon that has betrayed me and has been a thorn in my side. He's been helping the Dovahkiin learn shouts that could bring harm to us."

Alduin turned back to look at Wolkiimrel and said "Find the dragon Paarthurnax and eliminate him before he can help the Dovahkiin anymore."

Wolk just bowed his head and said "It will be done Alduin, I shall return when he us dead." With that Wolk took off from the ground and flew away.

Alduin just chuckled again and said "Fool......he will die trying to fight Paarthurnax, he has outlived his usefulness........" Alduin began to laugh like he was insane. When Alduin finished he took off from the ground and flew away.
