After chasing after Rarity for so long without his affection being returned, Spike gives up. But when new feelings surface for a certain librarian, it's up to Spike to discover just what those feelings are and how to deal with them. But to do so, he may have to have some help from his friends. That's what friends are for...right? If the heart of this dragon is to be spared, then he'll certainly require their assistance! (This version is a rewritten version of the first story I wrote. You could say that it's...new and improved! Using the writing experience I've gained over the years, I added many extra scenes to it compared to the original. It might not be the sequel that readers of the original were hoping for, but I hope that all readers new and old, will enjoy it!)
