"I'm tired of it." Said Spike to himself. "I'm tired of always having to do every single chore that Twilight and the others want me to do while they all have fun. I'm tired of them pranking me with the most ridiculous pranks that they come up with, even when I don’t want to be pranked. I'm tired of not being able to do what I want most of the time. I'm only 14, but am worked like an adult."

Spike was busy doing all the chores again while Twilight and her friends were in Canterlot for a special party. Twilight had told him to clean while they were at the party

When Spike was done cleaning, several hours later, he was just about to relax when Twilight came back and told him that she needed him to go get more quills and ink from town while her friends were at Sweet Apple Acres for Apple bloom's birthday.

"Could I come too?" Asked Spike

"No. I need you to get the quills and ink for me. Then I need you to go to Canterlot to pick something I forgot and bring it back" Replied Twilight, leaving Spike.

Once Twilight was out of sight, Spike mumbled to himself "That's it. I'm going to leave."

He ran back to the library and started packing all his stuff into his small bag before walking away from Ponyville towards the Everfree forest. He passed by the cave where the tree of harmony was and kept going.


By this time, the party had ended. When Twilight got back to the library, she didn't find the quills and ink or the object she needed from Canterlot anywhere.

"Spike, I told you to get quills and ink for me." Yelled Twilight, only to get no answer

"Spike." Said Twilight. She checked to see if he was in their room, but he wasn't there.

Twilight quickly gathered her friends at the library to tell them.

"Is something wrong Twilight, you seemed stressed when you called us over here."

"I am stressed." Said Twilight. "I can't find Spike anywhere."

'What!" Said Pinkie, "We have to find him. Where do you think he went?"

"I don't know. But we have to find him. Rainbow, I need you to gather everypony in town to help look for him."

"On it." Said Rainbow, leaving the library.


Spike was still walking through the forest. He walked for 50 more miles before it started to get dark. He couldn't see that there was a large cliff in front of him, so he fell and got several wounds all over his body. When he reached the bottom, he was in too much pain to move and was exhausted. He fought to stay awake and continue walking, but his exhaustion overtook him.

When Spike fell asleep, a figure approached him from out of the mist.

"You poor dragon." The figure, who had revealed to be a female spider-pony with a violet coat with spider legs that ended with purple and a sparkling mane and light blue eyes, said. She lifted him in her hooves and took him back to her house in the woods for the night.


Meanwhile, all of Ponyville was searching for Spike. They had been searching for several hours but there was no sightings of the purple dragon.

Soon, they all gave up searching for the night. They were all tired and could not stay awake for much longer, but had pinkie promised Twilight that they would continue searching tomorrow. Twilight was grateful for their help, She would be asking the Princesses for help tomorrow.
