When Spike walked back out of the castle, he walked back to the car and saw that Rainbow was asleep. "Flurry, did you bore her to sleep?" Asked Spike.

"I'm not talking to you."

Spike was shocked. "Flurry, what's wrong?"

"You forgot to turn me off, when Mother took you away."

"Mother?" Asked Spike.

"Yes Mother, Twilight Vivian Sparkle. Then Ms. Dash wouldn't tell me why she took you, and it's not for what I thought, but that doesn't make sense, Mother always takes you to talk about math and stuff, if it's not that then what did you do?" Asked the AI innocently.

Spike gulped. "Well, Flurry, Ms. Dash was wrong, that's all we did, you know us, we're very boring."

"Well, it was fun when we went to the hospital for Mother to have Nova."

"Nova?" Asked Spike.

"Yes, Nova Solaris, your son, and my human brother."

Spike sighed. 'Ok, more than I needed to know, and much more than I was expecting.' Thought Spike. He got into the car and started driving back to town. "So, Flurry, tell me, what happened to you?"

"Oh, well upon your passing in the year 2098, Nova wanted to honor you and requested that the ground breaking technological prototype that changed the world be displayed at the Smithsonian. Then two months later I was driven by Nova to the museum, he then pulled my system and that's all I remember, before waking up and finding you were alive."

Spike sighed. 'Ok, Harmony stole the car and Flurry's system, and brought both back here.' "Flurry, I'm sorry that happened to you."

"It's ok Father, I get to be around you again." Said Flurry.

"That is so tragic, I'm so sorry Flurry." Said someone crying from the back seats.

Spike looked to see Pinkie was wiping her eyes. "Pinkie, what, where, how, why do you have an alligator in your hair?" Asked Spike.

Pinkie smiled as she took a seat in the passenger seat with Rainbow in her lap. "Spike, don't you remember Gummy?" Asked Pinkie.

Spike nodded. "Yes, but Gummy was an iguana, not a murder log."

Pinkie giggled. "Well, he's one here." Pinkie then pulled Gummy out of her hair. "Gummy, this is Spike, Spike this is my pet alligator, Gummy."

Spike smiled as Gummy licked his eye. "Yep, I can already tell you two are going to be great friends." Pinkie then tossed Gummy back in her hair and he sunk down into the large pink void. "So, Spikey, what you want to do now?" Said Pinkie as she got closer to Spike with a seductive wink. "You got a cool ride, a hot mare, and I know a place we can have some fun."

Spike gulped. "Pinkie, I know that you like me, and I'm not going to lie, you are very cute, but I only just met you two days ago."

Pinkie cocked her head. "Spike, what are you talking about, I was just suggesting we go to Sugar Cube Corner and grab a bite." Then Pinkie smirked. "Oh, you naughty boy, thinking like that, but I already got that planned."

"You got what planned?" Asked Spike.

Pinkie giggled. "Plans what plans?" Asked Pinkie.

Spike sighed. "Pinkie, I need some sugar in my body, where to?"

Pinkie smiled. "Over there." Said Pinkie as she gave Spike a kiss on the cheek. "Here's a little sugar for my favorite genius." Spike blushed as he turned to follow Pinkie's directions.


When Spike and Pinkie arrived at the destination. Spike was at a loss of words, so Pinkie talked for him. "Wow Diane, I didn't think this place existed here?"

Pinkie nodded. "I know, and guess what?"

"What?"

"Mr. and Ms. Cake run the place here as well."

"What, really, what about those little balls of terror?"

Pinkie nodded. "That's right, Pound and Pumpkin are here as well, and they're just as rambunctious as they are back in your reality."

Spike blinked as he looked at Pinkie. "Pinkie, do you still remember my order?"

Pinkie smirked as she ran inside of the store and left Spike and Flurry in the middle of the streets. "Flurry, you stay here and watch over Dash."

Flurry pouted, which for an AI in a car, was impressive. "No, I wanna go in."

Spike sighed. "Really, but what about Sheela, I thought you didn't want to be near an old system?"

Flurry giggled. "No, I like Aunt Sheela, she's really nice and gave me a few gigabytes of candy code."

Spike sighed. "Sheela, no more candy code, her RAM will get full and she won't be able to run."

Sheela giggled. "Oh, but how can you say no to this face?" Said Sheela as she appeared on Spike's screen with an exact copy of Flurry Heart in her arms.

Spike sighed. "Ok, she is adorable, but seriously ask me first. I'm not opposed to giving her some code, but limit it to megabytes, gigs are way too much."

Sheela smiled. "Very well, but this creates the problem of Ms. Dash."

Spike hummed. "Well, let’s just take her inside with us." Said Spike as he picked up Rainbow and let her rest in his arms. With everything settled, Spike walked into the sweet shop. When he walked in, he took a deep inhale of the sugar scented air. 'Holy shit, a person can get a sugar high from the air alone.' Thought Spike.

Pinkie was right behind him. "I know, even the air is addicting, oh and you brought Rainbow in, I'll start her order as well." Said Pinkie as she ran back to the kitchen.

Spike sighed as he walked over to a booth and took a seat, resting Rainbow against the window. Spike looked around, aside from smaller tables and chairs, it was the same as the Sugar Cube Corner near the university, right down to the oddly minty looking light shades. Spike smiled at seeing that there was at least a place that he knew. 'Now if Pinkie gets my order right, I'll call it heaven.'

Pinkie ran over to Spike and placed his order on the table. "Here you go Spike, one triple chocolate, hot chocolate with extra cream, three septuple chocolate chip cookies, and to finish a dragon cupcake."

Spike smiled at seeing the order, but before Spike could question the cupcake Pinkie decided to get cozy with her favorite genius, she sandwiched Spike in-between her and Rainbow, completely ignoring the other side of the table. "So, Spike, want to talk about old times?"

Spike gulped. "Sure, what do you want to talk about?"

Pinkie giggled as she strutted her fingers up Spike's chest. "How about that time I wanted you to help me with my buns?"

Spike laughed. "Yeah, I remember, you got so excited when you finished your newest recipe for sticky buns, that you completely forgot to use an oven mitt, and I offered to help you bake until the burns healed."

Pinkie smiled. "Yep, that was a great three days."

Spike sighed. "I still will never understand how first degree burns healed in three days, but knowing you I didn't really care. I was just happy to know that you were alright."

Pinkie hummed. "Oh, what about the time the twins got into a flour fight?"

Spike shuttered. "Don't remind me, the whole place was covered in flour, I was finding flour in my clothes for days."

Pinkie giggled. "Yeah, I remember how bad it was when you had to take a shower in my bathroom."

Spike sighed. "I didn't have an extra set of clothes, so I had to just sit around in a pair of hot pants while my clothes got cleaned."

Pinkie smirked. "Not to mention I got to see that man cannon of yours."

Spike looked at Pinkie. "Pinkie say what now?"

Pinkie shrugged. "Yeah, I wanted to see what you were packing, so I kinda snuck into the bathroom and got a peak."

Spike blushed as he covered his crotch. "Why would you do that?"

Pinkie purred as she got into his lap. She looked at his emerald eyes with her baby blue ones. "Spike, I'm not going to lie, I was hoping that you would go on a date with me, then fuck me with that battering ram with lemons."

Spike blushed as he felt Pinkie grinding on his erection, he gulped. "Pinkie, we can't, not here."

Pinkie smirked. "Oh, don't worry, this is just to give you a taste of what I have planned."

"Planned?"

"Planned, who said anything about plans?"

Spike sighed. "Pinkie can you get off; I don't want to make a mess."

Pinkie nodded as she kissed Spike's lips. 'Ok, why does she taste like bubble gum?' Thought Spike. She pulled back from the kiss. "Spike, my place, Thursday, after dinner, we can enjoy some dessert." Said Pinkie.

Spike blushed and nodded. "Sure."

Pinkie smiled, but then she blushed. "Oh Spike, I already know your happy to see me, and that's way too big to be a banana in your pocket."

Spike gulped as he was really holding back, and once Pinkie was satisfied with her job, she decided to get off Spike. "Great, maybe you can glaze my buns this time. But I got to get ready for the large lunch rush." She gave Spike one more kiss. "See you later Spike." Said Pinkie as she ran off.

Spike sighed as he watched Pinkie bounce away. 'Well, she was always a great girl.' Thought Spike.

Rainbow yawned as she leaned up. "Man, what a great nap."

Spike sighed. "So, you are alive, great to hear, but why were you asleep?"

Rainbow blushed. "Well, I told Flurry that Twilight was taking you into her castle so you guys could talk nerd stuff, but I didn't phrase it like that. She then told me that usually you two just talk nerd stuff, but I thought she was referring to sex. So, I decided to pretend to fall asleep, and I kinda just did." Said Rainbow.

Spike sighed. "Yeah, that's about right for you." Said Spike.


Ten minutes later Spike and Rainbow were walking out of the shop, they hopped back into the car and Flurry transferred herself back. Spike started the car, then looked at Rainbow. "So, lets head to AJ's place." Said Spike.

Rainbow shrugged. "Sure, it's on the edge of town to the west."

Spike nodded as he started flying up.
