The next morning, Spike woke up to find himself laying with his mom in her bed, wrapped up in spider webbing.

“Morning sweetie.” Said Violet.

“Mom, y-you saved me.” He replied. “Thank you.”

“Oh, Spike. I’ll never let you go.” Replied Violet.

The two laid there for a little while longer before Spike spoke again.

“Hey, mom.”

“Yes, Spike.”

“This is very cozy, but could you unwrap me now?”

“Oh, right.”

Violet got up and carried Spike out to the living room. “So, what’s for breakfast?” Asked Spike, while being unwrapped

“I’ll be making a pancakes, haybacon, and eggs with fresh orange juice, made from oranges grown near here. You’re probably starving after yesterday.” Replied Violet.

“Yep, so hungry.”

“I’ll start making them now.” Said Violet, having finished unwrapping Spike. “So, what would you like to do today?” Asked Violet.

“I’d like to visit my old hometown, Ponyville.” Replied Spike. “If you’re okay with that.”

“I’m okay with anything, sweetie.” Replied Violet. “Plus, I’d like to see where you lived before I found you.”

Violet finished making their breakfast, and the two began to eat. Spike, as hungry as he was, chowed on the food.

“Wow, you were hungrier than I thought.” Said Violet.

“Is this too fast?” Asked Spike.

“No, not at all.” Replied Violet.

Violet and Spike continued eating until they were full, which was when all of the food was gone.

“That was so tasty, mom.” Said Spike.

“I’m glad you enjoyed it, Spike.” Replied Violet. “We’ll go to visit Ponyville in a bit.”

“Alright. I’m excited.” Replied Spike.

“I bet you are.”

Violet and Spike sat in her living room for a half hour talking about Ponyville while their stomachs settled. After the half hour, they left their home and walked towards the path that Spike had taken a week and a half before.

“Hey, mom.” Said Spike

“What’s up, Spike?”

“What do you think would’ve happened if you hadn’t found me that night?”

“I don’t even want to think about it, sweetie.” Replied Violet. “Let’s not think about what could have happened, let’s think about what did happen.”

“Okay mom.”

6 hours later, they got to the cave with the tree of harmony.

“We’re almost there.” Said Spike

“Whew. From now on, we should fly to Ponyville instead of walking.”

“I agree.”

The duo passed by Zecora’s house a few minutes later.

“Mom, you should probably change into a pony form. Like, maybe your old appearance without the spider legs.” Said Spike.

“If you think that’s wise.” Replied Violet, changing into a pony. “Is that good?”

“That’s perfect.” Replied Spike

Violet and her son left the forest and headed towards the town.

“Violet, welcome to Ponyville.” Said Spike.

“It’s very old fashioned, in a good way.” Replied Violet.

“I knew that you’d like it. Come on, let me show you around.”

(One tour of Ponyville later)

“I like this town. I’ll definitely want to come here again sometime.”

“Spike?” Said Twilight, standing there. “What are you doing back in Ponyville?”

“I wanted to show Violet my old hometown.”

“Where is Violet, by the way?”

“She’s right here.” Replied Spike, gesturing to Violet.

“I thought that she was a spider-pony.”

“Not anymore.” Said Violet. “Now I’m a Spidra-pheuniling.”

“What’s a spidra-pheuniling?” Asked Twilight.

“It's a hybrid of a spider, dragon, phoenix, unicorn, and changeling.”

“Co-could I see your new true form?” Asked Twilight.

“Only if you have somewhere more secluded. I don’t want to freak anypony out.”

“Come to my castle.” Replied Twilight.

Violet and Spike followed Twilight back to her castle into the most secure room she had. Then Violet lowered her disguise, revealing her spidra-pheuniling appearance.

“That looks interesting.” Said Twilight. “Why did you decide to change your appearance?”

“Um, because 2 days ago, overnight, Spike got kidnapped by a gang of antigoes, which are ant-windigo hybrids. I knew that I needed to change my appearance because I wouldn’t have lasted long with just my old appearance.”

“Can you change back to your old appearance?” Asked Twilight.

“No. The process is meant to turn creatures into hybrids, not the other way around. That applies to already existing hybrids too. But Spike likes my new appearance.”

“She’s right. My mom’s new appearance is awesome.”

“Well, I’m glad that you’re safe. Want to come to Sugarcube corner for some ice cream before you head back to your house?” Asked Twilight.

“Sure.” Replied Violet and Spike at the same time.

“Then let’s go. But change back into your pony form first, Violet.”

Violet nodded, changing back into the pony. She and Spike followed Twilight to Sugarcube corner, where Pinkie was at the counter.

“Hey Twilight, and. . . Oh my gosh!!! Spike came back.”

“Calm down, Pinkie. I’m only here for the day.” Replied Spike.

“Oh, well pinkie promise that you’ll visit again.”

“I don’t have to pinkie promise, I’ll be visiting again.”

“Okay. So, what do you three want?”

“We’ll take a ice cream cake for the three of us.” Replied Twilight.

“Coming right up.” Replied Pinkie. “Take a seat at one of the tables or booths.”

A half hour later, Pinkie came out with the ice cream cake.

“Hope you enjoy it. Especially Violet, since she’s never had something from here before.”

“How did you know that I was Violet?” Asked Violet.

“Because I read the script, silly.” Replied Pinkie.

“What’s she talking about?” Violet asked Twilight.

“Just go with it. It’s a lot easier than trying to figure her out, trust me.” Replied Twilight.

“If you say so.”

Twilight, Violet, and Spike ate the ice cream cake within 25 minutes. Violet really enjoyed it and told Pinkie that she would be coming for more next time she and Spike visited Ponyville.

“Well, my son and I better head back to our home.” Said Violet.

“Okay, goodbye Violet and Spike.”

“Just hold on a second mom.” Said Spike, walking up to Twilight.

“I forgive you, Twilight. Tell the girls that too.”

“Forgive?” Questioned Twilight, “For what?”

“For all those times you’ve used me, all those times you forgot about me, all those times that you made me feel like you didn’t care about me.” Replied Spike, hugging Twilight.

“It’s alright, Spike.” Said Twilight, tears in her eyes. “Promise that you’ll stay happy?”

“I promise.” Replied Spike. “I’ll visit again sometime, and I’ll invite you to our home soon.”

Spike and Violet waved to Twilight as they walked back into the forest. Violet turned into her normal appearance and levitated Spike on her back before flying to their home for the night.
