Under the Purple Hood

Discord walked slowly through the streets in the moonlight, wearing a huge duster coat, scarf, black glasses and a big long brimmed hat.

"Fuck" he said to himself "This is ridiculous even for me, I look like Karl Heisenberg from Euestrien Evil Village. I hope it's worth it at least."

Discord made his way to the apartment block where Spike was. The building, old and crumbling, had very few neighbors anymore. Many of the surrounding buildings were abandoned and almost decrepit.

The Draconequus rang Spike's apartment, but there was no answer. He decided to ring a second time, however, after a while of waiting, there was no answer either.

"I don't like this..." said Discord.

He took off his glasses and took a few steps back to look at the windows, all turned off, without a single light. Then, he decided to teleport to the 15th floor corridor by snapping his fingers. As soon as he finished snapping, a flash of light made Discord disappear and with another flash, he ended up inside the hallway.

He walked to the door of the nomag's apartment trying not to make noise with the wood of the apartment floor and knocked lightly on the door.

"Spike... Spike it's me," Discord whispered.

Again there was no response at all. He decided to walk through the door with his powers, placing both his hands on the wood and closing his eyes, he slowly made his way inside the apartment.

Once inside, Discord took off his coat and hat and raffled the beer cans and pizza boxes across the floor.

"Spike?" asked Discord "Spike are you in there?"

He moved forward slowly, peering into each room until he saw the bathroom light on and a warm flush of water.
"Spike?" he asked again as he advanced toward the bathroom.

Slowly opening the door, he knew in advance the horrifying sight he was about to encounter that likewise left him petrified.

Spike completely naked, cut at the wrists and with an empty pill bottle lying on the floor lay in the bathtub, submerged in the water tinged red with blood oozing from his wounds.

"Oh fuck," Discrod said petrified before lunging to grab the boy out of the tub, "Spike! Can you hear me?"

Discord led him into the living room pushing the garbage there off the floor. He put his ear to his chest but heard no heartbeat.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, not right now," he said nervously, "It's okay, it's okay."

Discord stood up and pointed his open palm at Spike's head.

"VULNERA SANENTUM!" shouted the Draconequus as in his palm, a blue beam formed and scanned Spike from head to toe. As it passed, the wounds on his body healed instantly until it left new marks on his wrists.

Discord lunged at his chest again, but the boy was still pulseless.

"Fuck!" he cried out in despair.

He saw then that the boy's mouth was between open and knew at that moment the one thing that would bring the nomag back to life. He dropped to his knees beside Spike's face, opened his mouth with some disgust and closed his eyes.

"If anyone ever asks me," Discord said, "I intend to deny everything."

Discord then proceeded to give Spike the kiss of life, bringing their two mouths together to give him air and three times practiced CPR on him. After twice doing this, Spike breathed again and puked up all the pills he had ingested.

"Holy shit Spike, you scared the crap out of me" Discord yelled at him as the boy caught his breath while crying and leaning against the wall still sitting up. "What the hell were you thinking?"

Spike cried disconsolately while still coughing.

"They...*cough* *sniff* they know Discord...they know *sniff*" Spike said with huge tears falling from his eyes. "The *cough* *sniff* T-Wings... they're going to kill me *sniff*. I didn't want to give them the pleasure."

"Explain yourself Spike, I don't understand you," Discord said confused.

"They know, they know about the changeling belt, the six years... everything, they know everything, they'll tell the T-Wings and I'll be dead..." he said as he stood back up.

Discord, rising slowly as well, was speechless and white.

"They... you... you mean the Harmony's?" said Discord in fear.

"No, my aunt Paca and my aunt Raimunda" he said sarcastically " Of course I mean them!"

"And do they also know about... our agreement?" he said worriedly

"I don't think so... but I don't know for sure." Spike said

"That doesn't relieve me," said Discord.

"You think it does to me!" shouted Spike to Discord "Sorry...I'm a little upset..."

Spike walked over to the couch where there was an open can of beer and began to drink it and looked at his coffee table, which had the Kulahaihuea book open, along with his computer, maps and blueprints.

"No need to swear..." said Discord who walked over to him and sat down next to him on the couch. "Spike... I promise nothing will happen."

"And how do you know it won't huh?" said Spike looking at him, still crying "I'm sure they' have told them by now and they'll be coming for me by now."

"Believe me they're not." Said Discord trying to comfort him "I know those girls very well and I know that before they do anything, they have to check with each other...have faith Spike..."

Spike put his hands to his face wiping away his tears.

"I know it's a lot to ask Discord but... I need a favor..." the boy said.

"Depends on what you need," said Discord in surprise.

"Talk to them...get them not to tell anyone..." asked Spike

"You ask a lot of me Spike... I don't know if I can do it..." said Discord

"Please... if they tell them, the whole investigation, all would have been for nothing." Spike said

Discord, alarmed, then looked at the coffee table, looking at all the research.

"Fuck, he's right, fuck the dream if he gets found out" thought Discord "It's okay Spike... I'll talk to them."

Spike finally took a calming breath and threw his head back resting it on the couch.

"Thank you really" he said at last with a smile on his face.

"No need to give ' em" said Discord proudly "Well... What did you find out?"

Spike sat back up and showed him a map of the ocean with a circle in red drawn in the middle of the blue.

"I've found it Discord" said Spike "The Fire Ruby is on a remote island that doesn't even show up on the maps... but I have the coordinates, I noticed that the book, it always says that the island where it's hidden is the hottest place in the archipelago, where Pele lies as the sun rises."

Discord, speechless blinked twice as a sign that he didn't understand anything.

Spike turned on a map on the computer and guided Discord around.

"The hottest place," Spike said, "the south, where the sun lies at sunrise. The sun rises in the east, next to two mighty giants, the Mareiana Islands and the Dragonshall Islands a few miles from the big island... New Griffnea... with some calculating, pulling encrypted messages from the book leads us here."

Typing in some coordinates and codes, the computer map quickly led them to a tiny island in the middle of nowhere with a huge volcano as a landmark.

"There's the jewel," said Spike, "In the heart of that volcano."

"And how are you going to get it?" asked Discord.

"Leave that to me" replied Spike "The question is how I'm going to get there..."

They both stood there thinking for a few seconds until Discord looked out the window of the old apartment and noticed a cruise ship passing in the background over the sea.

"I think I have an idea... and besides I'll kill two birds with one stone." Discord said smiling, leaving Spike puzzled.

The next morning, awoke with a tense air in Applejack's car, which, together with her sister, made the most absolute silence reign. They hardly even looked at each other, AJ had a worried expression while Applebloom's was one of enormous anger.

"Applebloom... I didn't think he would..." tried to calm Applejack down.

"What!" jumped up upset Applebloom "What exactly did you think he was going to do?"

"Well... fuck me" she said.

"Sure" said AB upset "After all he's been through, after he's always tried to keep it a secret and has been threatened by all the T-Wings... anyway, that's real smooth, Applejack... I WANT YOU SPIKE! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGG!"

"Okay okay, I guess I didn't do it the right way but I don't think it was like that..." said Applejack embarrassed "Was it like that?"

In response Applebloom looked at her firmly, giving her to understand that it was.

"I think I got a little carried away with the alcohol." She said red with embarrassment

"You think so?" she said sarcastically AB

Both sisters pulled into the high school parking lot and parked the car.

"So how are you gonna tell the girls?" asked Applebloom before getting out of the car.

"I don't know...but they have to know." Said Applejack

Applebloom, got out of the car now with a sad expression.

"Pray we see him at the high school today... if not, you know what happened... and who was to blame." She said before closing the door, leaving Applejack inside the vehicle who gently banged her head on the driving wheel.

After a few minutes, people began to arrive at the high school as they did every day. The hallways were slowly filling up, but Applejack was in her hallway, waiting for the nomag to show up, which he never did, a fact that worried the earthling very much.

"Damn" she thought " I went too far last night anyway... I'm really sorry Spike... please... show up."

Back down the hallway, the girls appeared chatting about the night before.

"I'm just saying" Sunset was saying "I'm not going to that joint again, bad joint."

"Yeah... look I'm used to alcohol" said Dash "But that was rat poison."

"Cheese's friend had to be the owner... gross." Said Twilight about to puke from the hangover.

"Well, I'm just fine," said Pinkie, smiling like the best, "Maybe it's something special."

"Your liver is something special Pinkie" joked Sunset "You should donate it to science."

Applejack wouldn't even look at them out of embarrassment.

"Applejack" said Fluttershy "Where were you? We thought you were going to wait for us outside in the parking lot."

"Girls..." said the cowgirl catching her breath "I have to tell you something that happened last night..."

She didn't have time to continue the sentence when over the loudspeakers of the school grounds, secretary Luna began to speak.

"Attention students, attention, have the following students report to the principal's office immediately: Jackelyn Apple, Amelia Apple, Iris Dash, Freya Dash, Rarity Jones, Franchesca Jones, Fluttershy Breeze, Pinkamina Diane Pie, Shamara Shimmer and Tamara Sparkle. Thank you."

The girls were confused and puzzled that they and the Crusaders had been called, as were the rest of the students who whispered.

" Why did they call them?" a pegasus asked his friends.

"No idea... hopefully nothing will happen to them." answered a unicorn.

"You don't think they'll be expelled, do you?" asked an earthling.

"That can't be possible, it's the Harmonys and the little Harmonys... I'm protesting in front of the school," said a unicorn.

"You and all sister" said a pegasus.

Everyone had a worried look on their faces as they watched the girls as they made their way to the office.
The T-Wings were at their lockers also worried.

"Twilight" Flash asked as they passed them "What have you done?"

Twilight completely ignored Flash, which caused him to get angry and bang against his locker so hard that he scared Sunbrust, who hung Scooby Doo style on top of Caramel.

When they reached the office hallway, the Crusaders were waiting for the Harmonys.

"What do you think they'll want?" asked Sweetie Belle.

"I have no idea Sweetie... but if we've all been summoned it must be something serious," replied her sister.
The door to the office didn't wait to open, and the secretary Luna appeared behind it with a serious expression.
"Come in girls" she said with a worried tone.

As they passed, Luna, before closing the door, looked to one side and the other to check if anyone was there, but she didn't see that in the surrounding corridors, all the students and some teachers were hiding, worried about the famous girls.
Inside the office, Discord was turned around in his chair without a word, looking out the window. All the girls were lined up, interspersed sister to sister.

"Celestia sweetheart" said the Draconequus "Can you soundproof the room please?"

Celestia nodded and with her horn, created a yellow colored aura that covered every wall, window and door of the office, preventing the thousands of ears that were glued to the door from hearing anything.

Discord got up to prepare a cup of coffee in the machine he had without saying a word.

"Would either of you like coffee or tea?" he asked the girls, who shook their heads.

With the mug full, he went back to sit behind his table and took a big sip.

"Excuse me Principal" said Twilight "Why did you call us in?"

"I don't know" said Discord setting the mug down on the desk "You tell me... Applejack, particularly, what happened?"
They were all silent, especially Applejack who didn't know what he meant.

"What happened last night Applejack?" asked Discord leaving AJ petrified who looked at AB who was also surprised.
"Last night?" asked the cowgirl somewhat nervously.

"Yeah, last night" returned Discord affirming "I don't know if you know this...I guess you do, but Spike is my protégé...I regularly go to see him at his apartment. What's my surprise to see him dead in the bathtub, wrists slit and overdosed on pills."

They all froze as they heard that, Dash, Fluttershy and Rarity coming to tears in their eyes as well as the Crusaders.

"He's... *sniff* he's..." stammered Rarity.

"Don't worry, he's fine, I got there in time to revive him" said Discord taking another sip of his coffee.

The answer relieved all of them, even so, they were still in tears and Applejack, the face of shock and guilt could not be removed, to the point that she took off her hat and let it fall to the ground.

"However" said Discord "I'd like to know, exactly what happened Applejack for the boy to get to that point..."

Applejack sighed deeply and snorted softly.

"This is what I wanted to tell you girls" said Applejack who began to recount what happened with Spike last night.

Outside the office, all the students and teachers were huddled together like zombies trying to hear what was going on.

"I can't hear anything" said Coach Iron Will.

"He must have soundproofed the office" said Ms.Harrswhinny.

"I hope everything is going well" commented an earthling.

"Me too" said a pegasus

They all started muttering among themselves as they kept trying to hear what was going on inside. The T-Wings, unlike the others were somewhat secluded, Flash was enraged and the others somewhat worried.

"I can't believe she ignored me like that" Flash said to his friends "Who the hell does she think she is to ignore me? Her boyfriend."

"Maybe she didn't hear you Flash" said Sunbrust "She'd be worried about what the principal would tell her."

"Like I don't have worries on my mind" said Flash with his arms crossed.

"Exactly" said Blueblood "We may be the T-Wings but we have our own problems, look at me, having to cut my pay two hundred bits to get my dumb brother out of prison."

"You and me comrade" said Soarin nodding.

"For example, yesterday I fucked Rarity beyond belief, and she didn't even thank me, she went with a sour face to sleep, she didn't care that I had done it to her three times, nor that she was in a luxury hotel with the most handsome unicorn of them all." Said Albert offended.

"What a shameless" Cheese said shaking his head as did the others.

A voice then made the T-Wings turn around.

"Don't be pussies" said the voice coming from the hallway "She'll thank you when she realizes who she's dating."
Thunderlane walked down the hallway smiling and wearing an eye patch.

"Thunder!" shouted the T-Wings who came to greet them with hugs, fist bumping and high fives.

"You didn't think you'd be left without me did you?" said the muscular pegasus "I don't know what's going on in that office but right now I have something more important to do...do you know where that magic-less rat has hidden his tail?"

"Didn't you have enough with him yesterday?" asked Soarin.

"Let's just say he came out crying before I could say anything." He said smiling wickedly, which made his friends laugh.

"I think I saw him in robotics class, playing with that little robot he's building." Cheese said

"Alright, tell me when the girls get out of the office." He told them as he made his way to robotics.

In robotics class, Spike was alone, adjusting his android's body and with the computer open, putting programs into it although every now and then, he looked outside, where he could see the window in the back of Discord's office which was surrounded by Celestia's yellow aura. He looked both ways and opened the classroom window, lit a cigarette and began to smoke as he continued with the robot.

"I hope you know what you're doing Discord..." said Spike to himself with a sad expression.

Then he heard the door open and quickly threw the cigarette out the window, thinking it was a teacher, however, who was entering the classroom, it was Thunderlane.

"Hi Louis" he said with a Machiavellian smile.

Thunder closed the door and walked slowly towards the nomag, who was not saying a word and had stood up altered. The pegasus looked at the robot he is building and laughed vilely.

"In your line Louis... creating animatronic roboticists." He said as he gently touched the robot's armor. "You already made a bear, a rabbit, a fox and a... chicken? Yes I think it was a chicken... What will it be this time? A talking hippo or a giant baby that makes ice cream? At least this new one, don't put sharp teeth on it... although I think you've learned your lesson."
The pegasus snickered as he cornered the nomag against the wall.

"But I didn't come here to talk about the past... last time you came out crying like a little girl and we left a conversation halfway through Afton." Said Thunderlane

"What do you want?" said Spike angrily and nervously.

"Chat midget..." he said as he sat down one of the lab stools in front of Spike "Because... you know when you're getting beaten to death and your light bulb goes on? Of course you do...well, while you were giving me a rhinoplasty without anesthesia...I saw something very clear...and even though you made it clear that Friday...I want to make something clear to you nomag...there's a chance...that Harmony likes you too."

"You don't say..." thought Spike wryly.

"There's also a chance, you could end up with any or all of them, and even their adorable little sisters, all at once, fulfilling the erotic dream of any student in this school and possibly the planet... but, you and I both know what's going to happen at the end..." grinned Thunder

"And what do you know what will happen" said the nomag "You don't even know what they are like."

"Maybe... but I know what they are not Louis... and they are not, nomags..." said Thunder "They are the ultimate exponents of magic and you, you are a skinny dwarf with the sole power to always screw up and hurt those you care about... I don't want to poke at the wound but... Peewee... Owlowicious... Winnona... your siblings... Ember..."

"Shut the fuck up" he said gritting his teeth in anger.

"Okay okay... don't start crying" he said laughing as he stood up.

"What I mean is... no matter how hard you try... how much you love them or how much they tell you they love you, when there is danger... they will leave you like a mangy mutt... and come back to us... because they are a princess... and you a mere commoner... don't forget my words... you will end up alone, sad and angry, remembering my voice, warning you of what was... inevitable." Thunder commented ominously to him as he headed for the door.

"I'll see you around nomag..." he said touching the doorknob. "Although..."

Thunder let go of the doorknob and headed towards Spike again. As he arrived, he charged his arm back and punched him in the face knocking him down on the workbench.

"No need to lose good old habits," he said as he grabbed him by the hair to slam his head against the table, causing him to collapse to the floor with blood in his mouth.

Thunder headed for the door again grinning as an almost unconscious Spike watched him from the floor.

"Keep watching your back Louis...there can only be one of us left..." he said as he walked out the door laughing like a maniac.

Just like in the hospital, Thunder's laughter echoed in Spike's head until it slowed down and started to get low, as a heart wrenching scream from a little girl, brought a tear to Spike's eye just before he closed his eyes and fainted from the blow.

Inside the office, Applejack was finishing her tale of what happened with Spike.

"He dropped a hundred bits and left... that happened," Applejack said crestfallen.

The Harmony girls were perplexed as were Luna, Discord and Celestia. They were all absolutely silent. Until Fluttershy took two steps forward and took a breath through her nose.

"Since I see that no one here is going to say what we all think, I'm going to say it" Fluttershy said calmly until she faced Applejack "Are you an idiot?!"

"I'm sorry! I really didn't think he would react like that!" She said defending herself

"Applejack" said Rarity "Spike isn't a gorilla like the other students at this school. If we wanted someone to go rape him we would have sent Dash or Pinkie."

"Hey!" they both said at the same time as the others looked at them with bread faces.

"What's the point of lying to you girls?" said Dash admitting.

"We most certainly would have" Pinkie also said admitting as well.

"The thing is, we sent you because we thought you could do it without any trouble" said Rarity "You're the Element of Honesty for God's sake..."

"Yeah... well, I guess I went a little overboard with the honesty" she said embarrassed scratching her head.

Discord got up from his seat and stood in front of the desk.

"So...are you all for him?" asked Discord leaving everyone silent.

"Kara Sevda" said Twilight without looking up from the floor.

Discord looked at Luna and Celestia perplexed.

"Are you sure it's Kara Sevda?" he said somewhat nervously.

All eleven girls nodded at once.

"We have seen and felt it," said Sunset.

"The Kara Sevda is a guarantee of eternal love...but you can also decide if you want to be with that person...are you sure?" asked Celestia

Ten of the girls nodded, but Twilight didn't move her head.

"What do you say Twilight?" asked the cosmic haired alicorn approaching her.

Twilight didn't answer, she kept looking at the ground.

"I know... for these six years... who I've been dating is with the no... with Spike... but I don't know if I can handle all this change... I thought my boyfriend was a smart, funny, caring pegasus and it turns out it was just a trick to take advantage of me..." said Twilight as tears formed in her eyes.

"Twi...Spike never took advantage of us...if anyone took advantage of both us and the poor boy...it was the T-Wings. They threatened him, they beat him to force him and we were tricked into having sex with them..." said Sunset trying to calm her down

"And what makes you think he wants to be with us?" said Twilight "That's what I've been trying to tell you all these days... what if he doesn't love us and is just acting to survive?"

The entire office fell silent again, sowing doubt among the girls.

"That's something... you'll have to find out for yourselves" Luna said "But you must be careful, Spike has never been closer to dying... if you really want to know if he loves you... you must first of all... approach him... but not in a rough way, not acting, knowing that he's the one you're talking to. Think of Spike as... like a bonsai. What happens if you crowd a bonsai? It dies. But if you let it grow at its own pace, gently trim the branches and leaves, it will grow into a beautiful mini tree."

"However," said Discord going to the window where he saw Spike joining the robotics class and stared into his eyes, before returning to his robot "You must find the right time to do it... the T-Wings are dicks and very dangerous, almost untouchable by their parents, if you want to break up with them, you must do it without binding Spike."

"What do you propose Discord?" asked Sunset.

Discord turned to them.

"Keep hanging out with the T-Wings for now...that way you won't raise any suspicions...if possible, have a good snog with them when Spike is watching, so he can breathe easy, since he thinks you've told them...as for you Crusaders, you can try to get close sooner since you're not as tied up as they are...but be subtle and let him set the pace if he wants to." Discord said sitting back down

"And we when do we get to take action?" said Dash somewhat annoyed with envy.

The Draconequus smiled and pulled out a brochure of a huge cruise ship and showed it in to the girls.

"In the right environment" he said smiling as he showed it to them.

The girls smiled and Pinkie was especially happy, however Twilight was still worried and lost.

The Dazzlings meanwhile, were in the huge high school library, Aria, was looking outside the door, to see if anyone was coming, however, they were all anchored to the door of Discord's office.

"No one, they're all trying to hear what's going on with the Harmony's" said Aria walking inside and approaching her sisters who were at one of the computers.

"Good, keep them busy with those stupid ones" said Adagio as she searched the internet.

"What are we looking for specifically?" said Sonata as she looked at the screen.

"Useful information" said Adagio "That last name... Afton... it rings a bell and not a good one."

"Why are we investigating this?" said Aria "Who cares about the nomag's life?"

"Don't you get it Aria?" said Adagio to her "If we find evidence against the nomag, not only will we be able to rat him out and put him behind bars, the Harmonys will be broken and we'll be the heroines of the school, all these hillbillies under our control."

"You should have started there sister" she said smiling wickedly like her other two sisters.

After a while without finding anything, an article from an old newspaper caught the attention of the sirens.

"Three local friends open a new franchise" said Adagio reading the title before clicking on the news link. "Three young friends open a new entertainment and food franchise. The young men, F. F. P , H. B. E. and W.A. born in Canterlot City revolutionize the way food is served."

"W.A.? William Afton...the father of nomag" said Aria "How long ago is the news?"

"Twelve years ago" said Adagio "The question is...who were the other two?"

"Doesn't it say anything else?" asked Sonata

"No... the file is incomplete, there is only the header and the title, nothing about the news, no names, just the acronym of them." Said Adagio

"This way we are not going to achieve anything..." said Aria thinking.

The three sisters hesitantly kept silent trying to elucidate what to do.

"Girls... maybe we have to get closer to him..." said Sonata.

"To the nomag?" asked Aria "Don't be silly Sonata, there's no way we're going to waste our valuable time with that scum."

"You'll be silly Aria!" replied Sonata angrily.

"You!" retorted Aria

"No, you!" said Sonata

"No, you" said Aria

"Shut up both of you!" shouted Adagio leaving both of them silent "Sonata is right, if we want to know something, we have to go to the closest source we have... and that source has green hair and always wears a purple hood..."

Aria rolled her eyes in disapproval as Sonata stuck her tongue out at her, mocking her. Adagio drew a vile smile on his face, thinking how to carry out her plan.

Some time later, after the first classes, it was lunch time as usual in the huge cafeteria.

Everyone was in their seats enjoying their plate of food. At the Harmony table there was a great silence and a tense atmosphere. Even Pinkie wasn't eating, they were all stirring the food with their forks.

"So...do we have to?" asked Dash "Not that I'm really looking forward to getting back in bed with that bastard."

" Neither you, nor me Dash" said Applejack.

"I don't think either of us would be amused...what a bore." Pinkie commented

"I know it's...a lot to ask...especially you Dash...but it won't be for long...and it's not for fun..." said Rarity as she subtly turned back and looked at Spike with his hood up, eating his plate.

"It's to protect him..." said Dash "Okay, I'll do it, but I plan on getting back at Spike, I'm going to smash him."

The girls turned around quizzically at that last, but Rainbow Dash's complicit face, with a half-smile, made them understand what she meant.

Through the cafeteria doors, the T-Wings entered triumphantly, Thunderlane being the last to enter, which aroused a flurry of shouts and compliments towards the pegasus.

"Cheer up those faces!" said Thunder grinning "Daddy's here!"

"Thunder I love you!" shouted many of the girls at him.

"Champion!" said others.

"The king is back!" shouted many.

The Harmony girls looked at each other and nodded, caught their breath and at the same time stood up and walked towards them slowly.

The students made a hallway for the Harmony girls to approach the T-Wings. Each of the girls approached their boyfriends, grabbed all of their faces and kissed them passionately in front of everyone. The most passionate of all was Fluttershy and Thunder, who were even cheered on. The Crusaders, who watched the whole thing from their table, subtly turned to look at Spike, who had seen it all and although he relaxed after a second, his face was clearly sad, overcome with envy. The three friends, turned again with great concern for how it would have affected him.

"Baby..." said Thunder as she broke the kiss with Fluttershy "I've missed you so much..."

"And me plushie..." he said with a big fake smile.

"Wow" said Soarin as he broke the kiss with Dash "Does this mean we're back?"

"You approve" she told him smiling falsely as the others did

Flash and Twilight finished kissing and the alicorn didn't pull away much, just a few inches. Flash noticed she was sad.

"Is everything okay baby?" asked the pegasus.

"Please... don't disappoint me..." whispered Twilight almost in tears.

Flash didn't understand anything but ignored it and kissed her again with a huge smile.

"So yesterday's apology was worth it?" he asked.

"Brave liar" thought Applejack "Of course my life, everything is great."

As the girls and the T-Wings put on a good show of kissing and ass grabbing, the Dazzlings watched as the nomag got up and walked out of the cafeteria. The three sirens nodded and went after him. The Crusaders saw the intentions and got upset.

"I don't like this," said Applebloom.

"Let's go!" said Scootaloo getting up with the others from the table and following the Dazzlings.

Outside the institution, Spike smoked a cigarette, savoring every particle of smoke that went in and out of his lungs. He looked up at the sky, trying not to think, although it was impossible, since the image of the Harmony kissing the T-Wings couldn't leave his mind.

At the top of the access stairs were the Dazzlings, whom Adagio commanded to follow her lead.

"Hey handsome" said Adagio "Got fire?"

Spike turned and watched as Adagio held a cigarette and looked at him with seductive eyes. Spike ignored them and tossed her a lighter. The older sister caught the lighter in bewilderment, lit the cigarette and walked down the stairs to stand beside the boy.

"I don't know if you know me but, I go to your class, I'm Adagio Dazzling" she said with a sexy tone.

"I know exactly who you and your sisters are and I know you're up to no good." Spike said dryly

"Aw...you hurt our feelings" said Adagio smiling "It's just...we couldn't help but notice how you came out of the cafeteria when the Harmony's kissed the T-Wings"

Knowing where the topic was going to go, Spike faced Adagio after taking a last puff.

"So what do you want, a medal?" said Spike to Adagio's face "Go make fun of another, mermaid."

Spike started up the stairs to go inside, leaving Adagio grim-faced, but Sonata stopped him.

"Wait, wait, we didn't come to make fun of you at all" she said stopping him "You've suffered and suffer enough every day... we just came to tell you that... for us that you don't have magic is nothing... we really think that... you're quite interesting."
"Interesting," Spike said still dryly.

"Yep." Sonata said smiling

"Me?" replied Spike

Sonata nodded as did her sisters. Spike raised one eyebrow and then the other, still not believing them.

"Listen kid" said Aria "We don't think they would besides, surely knowing how you feel, treat you like this...if you need to talk...just say the word and we'll come."

Spike looked at them again and a slight smile came to his face.

"Thanks girls...I'm fine for now...really." He said as he walked back into the school and lost himself in the halls.

The Dazzlings entered shortly after smiling.

"That's it...take the bait" said Adagio malevolently "Well played Sonata."

"You're welcome" she said also grinning malevolently as they went down the hallway opposite Spike's.

Behind some lockers were the crusaders who had heard everything and there were Sweetie Belle and Applebloom holding Scootaloo so she wouldn't go kill them right there. When they disappeared, they let her go.

"Fucking freeloading bitches!" yelled Scootaloo.

"Calm down Scoots" said Sweetie putting a hand on her shoulder.

"How do you want me to calm down?" she asked her unicorn friend "I don't know what those witches want from him but you've seen and heard them, nothing good."

"I don't like it either. We have to inform our sisters," said Applebloom "And quickly."

After lunch was over, the Harmonys walked back to their lockers to grab books for their upcoming classes.

"I don't know how I managed not to throw up in his face" said Dash as she grabbed her books.

"It hasn't been easy truth be told" said Applejack.

"We have to keep calm girls... I know it's hard but these weeks before the trip we have to keep Spikey-Wikey out of trouble" said Fluttershy closing her locker.

"Spikey-Wikey?" said all of them quizzical.

Fluttershy a little red covered herself with her wings a little.

"It's... a... loving nickname..." she said almost whispering.

The Crusaders came running to their sisters.

"Girls... girls... girls... phew... we... have... to tell you something" said Applebloom trying to catch her breath.

"Dazzlings... phew... danger..." stammered Sweetie Belle.

"We don't understand" said Twilight "What about the Dazzlings?"

The three sirens then appeared down the hallway and cornered Spike, who was coming with his hood up.

"Spike" Sonata said to him "We forgot."

The three of them grabbed a piece of paper and wrote their phone numbers on them.

"Call us" Adagio told her biting her lip.

"For whatever you need" Aria said winking at her.

Spike somewhat perplexed took the three papers and waved goodbye to them as he watched them merge with the other students down the halls.

The Harmony's, seeing what happened, looked blank as Dash and Shy got a huge angry look on their faces.

"Those sirens..." said Dash gritting his teeth in anger.

"I hope they don't think of going near Spikey" said Shy rabidly.

"Discretion girls" Rarity reminded them "I'm not amused either, but you have to keep calm, Spike knows how to protect himself and what those three are all about."

"If they do anything bad to him I will break every one of their fish bones" said Pinkie whose hair had gone flat and her face showed hatred.

Spike walked past the Harmony and Crusaders quickening his pace to avoid an awkward situation until he reached his locker, his back to them the whole time.

"Maybe we should talk to him," Scoots said as she walked towards him.

She alone slowly approached Spike and gave him two taps on the back to which he turned around.

"Hey Spike, I..." said Scoots before a punch to Spike's face cut off the conversation, throwing the nomag to the ground.

"Whew you' re welcome future sister-in-law" said Zephre Breeze who revealed himself as the perpetrator of the punch "Good thing I was here to protect you from that nasty nomag."

"Zephry!" shouted the Crusaders and the Harmonies.

"I know, I know, I know," said the vain pegasus as he gently pushed Scoots over to her friends as Snips and Snails came out of the corner as he snapped his fingers and headed towards Spike on the ground. "I'm a hero."

Snips and Snails started kicking Spike in the stomach.

"Take that nomag!" yelled Snips as he kicked him.

"This will teach you not to try to assault Rainbow Dash's little sister," said Snails.

The girls, helplessly watched as they kicked Spike in great anger.

"I hope you take this into consideration Dashie" said Zephry with a smile "When you see that I, am the love of your life, you will thank me for everything I do for you and your sister. You broke my heart when you kissed Soarin, but I'll keep waiting for you to open your eyes."

"Zephry..." said in a demonic tone Dash as she came towards him with a clenched fist full of sparks.

Just before she hit him, the high school speakers blared again.

"Attention seniors, attention, assemble in the auditorium immediately."

Zephry snapped his fingers again and Snips and Snails returned to his side, leaving Spike badly hurt on the floor.

"I see we've been sent to gather" said Zephry "See you my love".

The three friends headed towards the auditorium under the hateful glares of the girls.

Immediately when they disappeared, they turned to Spike with the intention of going to heal him, however, the Dazzlings were with him, they had lifted him up and Sonata was closing his wounds.

"Don't worry, you'll be healed in no time." She told him in a very pleasant tone.

Adagio looked up and saw the perplexed eleven girls, she smiled wickedly and turned her gaze back to the nomag.
"Do you want to go with us to the meeting Spike?" said Adagio to the still stunned boy.

"No...I don't want to cause you any more trouble." Spike said catching his breath.

Aria and Sonata then grabbed his arms and lifted him up. They then each took him by one hand and began to walk him over.

"No bother at all," said the three smilingly.

The four passed in front of the Harmony's who had to grab Dash and Pinkie.

"I'LL KILL THEM!" yelled Dash "I SWEAR I'LL KILL THEM!"

"Calm down Dash!" said Shy as he held her down.

Pinkie would just bark like a rabid Rottweiler.

"Come on girl calm down! Soooo!" yelled Applejack at Pinkie as she held her down with her lasso.

"Let's not lose the papers" Twilight said "I don't know what the Dazzlings will want, but we have to keep calm girls."

The Crusaders looked at each other and nodded.

"Let's go after them, we'll find out their intentions" said Applebloom.

"They're going to the meeting, it's just for our course, I don't think they'll let you in" Sunset told them.

"We're not going to ask permission, relax." Scoots replied

"Let's go" said Sweetie Belle as they started walking after the Dazzlings and Spike leaving the Harmony's worried.

The huge auditorium had many rows of cushioned seats, very similar to those of the cinemas, red velvet, all pointing to the big stage where, not only meetings were held. Plays, contests, even international, independent film premieres abitually ran across the pinewood floor that made up the huge stage which, was enclosed by large purple curtains, the principal Discord being at the front of them waiting for all the seniors to be seated.

The T-Wings, along with their group of fans occupied the front seats, the Harmony Girls, being as always gazed at with lewdness, envy and adoration by boys and girls of all kinds. The Dazzlings, however, sat in the back along with Spike in the middle of the three. The Crusaders, had snuck in unseen, putting themselves in the seats behind the Dazzlings, crouching low to the floor to hear what they were saying to Spike.

"Welcome seniors." Discord began, speaking into a microphone. "Summer is almost around the corner and not only that, but your graduation. Some of you have been at this school even before me. Here you have grown up, made friends, found love and little by little you have become a family."

Everyone had a big smile looking at each other except Spike, who kept his cool gaze. Then Aria grabbed his shoulder.

"Are you okay boy?" asked Aria with a worried gesture.

"What?" said Spike confused "Ah, don't worry really..."

"Is it because of something Discord said?" asked Sonata "You made a face when he said family..."

"It's just not a word I like to define this course." Said Spike curling his arms and closing his eyes.

"I would imagine" said Adagio "to define them better is the word bastards isn't it?"

Adagio's comment made Spike smile.

"Wouldn't have said it better" said Spike with a half smile.

"Speaking of family... you know what the word is about your parents around the high school right?" said Sonata carefully "We just wanted to know if..."

"If I really killed them no?" asked the nomag.

Silence in the back seats fell, only interrupted by Discord's background speech.

"I didn't kill them... but I wish I had..." commented Spike being somewhat unsure whether to tell him or not.

"Don't you get along with them?" asked Sonata.

Spike didn't answer, just looked straight ahead.

"Bad living together... I hear you kid" Aria told him "Our parents aren't exactly people you're comfortable living with either."
"At least... you have them at home" Spike said dryly, leaving the Dazzlings surprised.

"... and coming up to this time, having passed the last exams and awaiting graduation, the management team and I have decided to give you a long awaited and well deserved end of course trip." Concluded Discord in his speech, causing a wave of enthusiasm to sweep through the room, thrilling every student.

"Did they abandon you?" asked Adagio "Did something happen to them with justice and they had to run away?"

Spike looked at Adagio, who was watching him with a look of mock concern.

"Something like that...I don't know anything about them...and I'd rather have it that way." Spike said getting up with the intention of changing seats "I've been fending for myself for years...and that's the way I'd rather it stay. I know you girls are trying to cheer me up...but do yourselves a favor and get away from me, thanks for helping me before but, don't ever talk to me again."

Spike left leaving the Dazzlings in the seats and walked to the back of the whole auditorium and leaned against the wall, putting on his purple hoodie.

"Shit, we've been too direct" Adagio cursed.

"With that information we don't do shit" Aria told him "We have to get him to trust us."

"If we want to get information out of him about his family... we have to become his friends..." said Sonata.

"Don't fuck with me... gross," said Aria.

"We are all repulsed Aria but Sonata is right, if we want that nomag to go to jail and become queens of this place, we have to be... his... friends." Said Adagio

"Goodbye to our reputation." Said Aria "I hope it's worth it for us to get close to that scum."

"It will sister, it will" concluded Adagio with a wicked grin.

Behind them, the Crusaders, having heard everything, had a perplexed expression and with only one sentence in mind.

"Fucking witches" the three of them thought at the same time.

"And now you may be wondering... What will our trip be?" said Discord "That better be told to us by our dearest Pinkie Pie let's hear it for her!"

"Here we go" she thought as she rose from her seat as applause from all the students, except the Dazzlings, ran through every echo in the room."

"Sexy girl!" a pegasus shouted at her.

"You're the best Pinkie!" a unicorn shouted back.

"That Pinkie, you machine!" shouted a group of earthlings.

"Pinkie! Pinkie! Pinkie!" they began to cheer her on as she climbed the stairs to the stage.

"That's my girlfriend!" shouted Cheese getting up with a big smile.

Discord handed the microphone to the pink-haired earthling and winked.

"Good morning future graduates!" shouted Pinkie cheerfully as she looked around at everyone, including Spike in the background, who wouldn't take his eyes off her, causing her to blush a little. "I know being one of the heroines of the city, with apologies to the principal, seems like a rather tedious position, also having to take exams and all that boring stuff... but you're forgetting something, my element is laughter, and it's not for nothing that my parties are always spectacular." She said making everyone clap again cheering her on.

"Long live Pinkie's parties!" shouted a pegasus.

" Long live!" they shouted at the same time.

"Thank you, thank you all" said Pinkie excited "As the best party coordinator in this town, I wasn't going to let our end of course trip be any less, and as you know the goat pulls for the hill and my main element is water, I have the honor to present to you, the biggest macro disco above sea level, on one of the most luxurious cruise ships on the entire planet, I present to you our trip, the CELEBRITY EDGE!"

The curtains parted and on the fold-out screen in the back, the promotional video of the cruise began to play.

"As you have seen" Pinkie began again "This amazing cruise will be our home for seven long days of fun on the sea and I am happy to inform you that it is exclusively for the seniors of Canterlot City high schools and our Crystal City neighbors, it will be non-stop partying for seven days straight until we reach our final destination where we will spend another week, I present to you the seaside destination resort of Bora Bora, FOUR SEASONS RESORT!"
On the screen, a promotional video of the resort was played again.

"Oh yeah" Pinkie said with a seductive face "I reckon some of us are going to have a good time in there."
Pinkie looked at Cheese first causing a perverted face to form, however she looked at Spike and without anyone noticing, winked at him, which made the nomag blush, who hid behind his hood.

"I have to say, the impressive suites you have in the videos, unfortunately, are not for everyone." She said discouraging her companions a bit," Both on the cruise and at the resort, the best suites, will be contested by all of you, so to make it a great competition for luxury the last band contest of this year is open! Where the judges, namely me and the Harmony's, will decide who will be the winners of the suites and our luxurious suite neighbors."

Everyone got excited and it began in the atmosphere of the auditorium, a tense aroma of competition.

"Best of luck to everyone and cheer up those faces... WE'RE GOING ON A CRUISE!"

Again, the students, began to clap and cheer for Pinkie as she returned to her seat.

Again, the students, began to applaud and praise Pinkie as she returned to her seat.

"Well," she commented to her friends, "I think it went well."

"You did great Pinkie darling" Rarity told her.

Discord went back to the stage to address the students.

"Thank you Pinkie for the presentation." Said the director "The contest will be on Friday next week, the originality of the song, the vocals and the instruments chosen to play it will be judged. Best of luck to everyone and let's practice."

The students got up and left the place, excited to start practicing. Before leaving the auditorium, the T-Wings stopped the Harmonys.

"Hey babes" began Thunder grabbing Shy by the waist "I hope we get your vote to be neighbors."

"We have to be impartial honey, but if you behave yourselves, maybe we'll raise you a few points" said Fluttershy touching his nose with her finger.

"Let's see what kind of dough you guys are made of" Dash challenged the T-Wings.

"Just like I am in bed, I'm a beast at singing Dashie" said Soarin with seductive eyes.

"I see you guys are really high" joked Pinkie.

"You'll see, cupcake" Cheese told her "I'll make you fall even more in love".

Pinkie laughed awkwardly

"That's kind of impossible" said the earthling party girl falsely.

"Let's not waste time guys" said Flash "Let's go practice".

The T-Wings left the room, blowing a kiss to their respective girlfriends, leaving only them and the Crusaders inside, who were still hiding.

"They're all gone now" said Sunset "You can come out Crusaders."

The three friends got up from their hiding place and walked over to them.

"You guys aren't going to have a good time or anything" said Scootaloo with some envy.

"We'll do what we can," her sister replied with a smile.

"Have you found out anything?" asked Twilight.

"Those mermaid bitches want to get information out of Spike about his family...they want to imprison him and become the heroines of the high school and the city." Sweetie Belle said worriedly.

"Bastards!" shouted Applejack " We have to tell Spike...he's in danger.

"Of that I have no doubt, but how are we going to warn him without arousing suspicion?" asked Rarity.

Spike, who was still in the same position as before stepped out of the shadows surprising the girls.

"That won't be necessary..." said Spike "Thanks for the info... and here I thought someone really wanted to be my friend... I'm such a jerk."

Spike was about to walk out the door but Dash flew at him to stop him.

"Wait Spike..." she said grabbing his shoulder. "We wanted to..."

"If you want to kill me for the belt, that's your right," he said without looking at them, "I know I was stupid to believe that lie would last forever. But before that happens, I ask you to let me live until after the trip... I've never been on a cruise... it's a good last wish don't you think?"

The girls were speechless, Dash could tell how the boy was trembling from fear which made her blurt out perplexed.
"What we wanted to tell you is that... we'd be happy to have you participate in the contest..." said Pinkie...
This surprised Spike who turned around fearfully.

"Yes!" said Applejack "We'd give you a nice room... to make up for what I did... last night."

Spike kept silent and looking at the floor.

"We've never heard you sing... or hardly speak... you sure have a lovely voice," said Fluttershy with a smile.
The nomag turned back to the door, silently again.

"I'll think about it... sorry... for everything." He said just before running off down the hallway, leaving a sad silence among the girls.

"He was shaking..." said Dash to the Harmonys.

"Only one word comes to mind right?" asked Sunset.

"Helplessness..." said Dash as a tear fell from her eye.

The classes passed slowly for the Harmony's, especially for Dash who could only have the image of Spike trembling when she touched him.

"I've never seen so much fear in anyone's eyes..." thought Rainbow Dash in Spanish class "I am going to make up for all these years of pain... I swear."

"Miss Iris Dash!" shouted Ms.Harsswhinne "I know your worlds will be much more entertaining than the exciting world of Spanish culture, but when you are in my class... I would beg you to pay attention!"

"Excuse me Ms. Harsswhinne" said Dash.

"In Spanish, Ms. Dash" the teacher replied again dryly.

"Perdóneme Ms. Harsswhinne" she pronounced in her best Spanish.

At the end of the school day, the Harmony and Crusaders gathered in the high school parking lot to go home.

All of them could see Spike leaving the place, without even looking at them. The Dazzlings tried to say goodbye to him, but he walked past them, which puzzled them.

"What's wrong with him?" asked Aria.

"I don't know," said Sonata

Adagio looked over at the Harmony and Crusaders, who were glaring at them with hatred.

"I have a feeling those suckers had something to do with it" said Adagio to her sisters "Let's go".

The three sirens headed towards the parking lot, to which Applejack, Dash and Shy went on alert, getting in front of the others.

"Well, well, well sisters, look who's gracing us with their presence." Said Adagio hesitantly "The happyflower friends and the three little dwarves."

"Watch your words Adagio" Dash threatened her "Or you'll understand electromechanics in a single spark, witch."

"What fumes skittles" said Aria smiling malevolently "You haven't even been back with Soarin for three hours and he's already cheated on you or what?"

"Why don't you stick that red gem hanging around your neck deep up your ass Aria?" said Applejack defending her friend "Or is it that you've got it so wide open you wouldn't even notice?"

"Don't push it cowgirl" she replied getting face to face with her "Or do I remind you of what happened in the boxing ring? Do you want a rematch?"

"I wouldn't hesitate for a second to give you the beating you deserve," said Applejack, gritting her teeth and causing a huge windstorm to blow up and even move the cars.

They were about to hit each other, both with a clenched fist, Applejack's fist could be seen as a ball of wind covered her entire palm and her necklace shone with great intensity while Aria's gem also dazzled and her fist formed golden colored scales, hard as iron.

Adagio calmly pulled them apart.

"A little bit of serenity ladies" said Adagio with a sinister tone "You're not going to fight over guys who don't have half a brain cell are you?"

Aria's anger dissipated, putting a smile on her mouth.

"You're right sis" said Aria "After all...what's the fun in going with guys with girlfriends?"

"Exactly Aria" said Adagio "It's time to grow up, to get us a nice boyfriend for ourselves."

"But one for the three of us, we have to share" said Sonata smiling as she paced.

"I couldn't have said it better Sonata" said Adagio.

The Harmony and Crusaders, knowing how the mermaids' palaver was going to end, began to get even angrier.

"It's about time" said Twilight angrily "Maybe this way, you'll stop being such a bunch of fuck-boy whores."

"For once you're right Twilight" said Adagio "We've already got a good looking guy here."

"Yeah... short, so we can dominate him well" said Aria as the three of them circled around the friends, waiting for them to lose their temper. "He doesn't attract much attention, so too, he'd be a faithful boy."

"Very smart" said Sonata "I even heard he's building a robot butler in robotics class."

"And super sensitive" said Adagio "I love sensitive...I can already imagine his little face when I kiss him...how he'll write me romantic poems that he'll leave anonymous in my locker."

"Dazzlings..." mumbled Fluttershy whose face turned red with anger, which worried the Harmonys.

"Shy get a hold of yourself!" they all told her telepathically.

"It's obvious that's what they're after," Twilight told her.

"Don't fall into their game Fluttershy!" warned Sunset.

Fluttershy was turning a deaf ear, she felt a whole rage inside her, which caused the parking lot to suddenly fill up with roots from the woods trees and her necklace started to glow.

"He's so cute this guy we told you about..." said Adagio with an evil grin "And the best thing about him?"

"Is that he hates you deeply" answered Aria laughing "Because you always bulling him..."

"You drive him mad..." said Sonata laughing also

"And you judge him and hate him all over again because the poor thing... doesn't... have... powers..." said Adagio laughing loudly

Shy began to fill it all up with grass coming out of the parking lot, forming cracks all over the asphalt as more roots came out.

"Tell me Shy" said Adagio moving towards the pegasus, who he stood just inches from her face, delivering the coup de grace "Spike, what's it more of?"

Aria walked over to Applejack who was also terribly annoyed and finished her sister's question.

"Of boobs or butts?" she said smirking as the three mermaids giggled.

Shy couldn't contain herself any longer, she threw some roots at their necks and began to strangle them as she lifted into the air.

"DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT PUTTING A DIRTY, MARINE HAND OF YOURS ON MY SPIKE AQUATIC BITCHWASHING WITCHES!" shouted Fluttershy at them, her eyes completely white.

The mermaids didn't even notice the strangling, as the pegasus' rage fed their jewels, making them stronger, and they just laughed and laughed again, feeding Fluttershy's rage.

The mermaids' eyes began to turn red as their bodies began to change. Their arms turned golden with scales covering their entire body except for their neck and head, their legs began to turn into a golden fish tail with sharp spikes at the end of it and two wings, like glass, were coming out of their backs as well as four fangs in their mouths.
"Wow girls" said Adagio smiling as they let go of the roots and flew to Fluttershy's height "I guess I don't see much hatred for him... What's wrong Fluttershy? Jealous?"

Shy screamed like a wild beast and raised her hands as branches grew from her arms, turning into two whips. She tried to strike Adagio from above, but she dodged it and at great speed, swam through the air until she was behind her and with a sonic screech threw the pegasus to the ground.

The three mermaids were about to hit her, but a burst of fire, emanating from Sunset Shimmer's hand, like a flamethrower, drove them away.

"Don't even think about it sirens!" said Sunset as all the others were in position to attack them. "You mess with one, you mess with all!"

Dash had her body covered in lightning bolts, Rarity had two fists of rock and two large sharp diamonds on her flanks aimed at the mermaids, Applejack, had on both arms covered in two small whirlwinds, Pinkie was riding a wave and with several sharp pieces of ice floating above her right palm and Twilight was flying at the mermaids' height with two purple energy bolts in her hands, which were clashing together, forming a ball of energy between the two palms. The crusaders, for their part, were hidden behind a car.

Adagio, surrounded with her sisters, looked at them and smiled. They slowly descended to the ground and detransformed.

"I guess there' s no playing with losers girls..." she said to her sisters. "We have a jackpot to win..."

"A boy's heart..." replied Aria.

"Let's go" said Adagio smiling as she walked away along with Aria and Sonata moving like models.

The Harmony's, stopped being on guard and went straight to Shy, who was somewhat badly hurt in the hole she had made in the ground when she fell.

"Shy are you okay!" said Twilight climbing down into the gap and helping Fluttershy back up.

"Yeah... sorry girls... I lost control..." said Shy as she had all the vegetation removed from the parking lot and Rarity was repairing the cracks and the gap in the asphalt.

"Don't worry dear" said Rarity finishing the asphalt and going over to the pegasus, putting a hand on her shoulder. "It was those sirens who provoked us."

"We don't judge you, I've been left wanting to fish the spark" said Dash "The important thing is that you're okay."
Shy nodded as she touched her head from exhaustion.

"Girls..." said Sweetie Belle coming out from behind the car "We should go."

The unicorn pointed toward the entrance of the high school where several students, smiling and cheering them on, had recorded them fighting.

"You're awesome girls!" a pegasus shouted at them.

"You're hot Sunset Shimmer!" an earthling shouted back.

"Please do it again!" a group of unicorns shouted at them.

"Yes! Again! Again!" shouted the group, all with cell phones recording.

The Harmony's ran to the cars and sped out of the parking lot with faces red with embarrassment.

Spike was back in his apartment, looking out the window, smoking a cigarette, watching the traffic come and go. With every puff he took, he thought about what the Harmonys had told him in the auditorium. He turned away from the traffic and passed through the small living room, which still had all the drawings of the Fire Ruby and the still unfinished blueprint of what looked like a somewhat extravagant communications tower, with a dome in the middle of the structure.He went into the disorganized room and opened his built-in closet full of empty hangers. Leaning against the wall of it was an electric guitar and a small drum set he bought one day online, so long ago that they were both full of dust. A half smile formed on the nomag's face.

"Could be fun..." he said to himself as he picked up the guitar and blew the dust off.

Night fell over Canterlot City. In Twilight, Sunset and Pinkie Pie's house in the Ponyville neighborhood, right in front of Rainbow Dash's, on both sides, having Rarity's and on the other side Fluttershy's, the girls were having a dinner all together to welcome the weekend.

The huge kitchen, which connected to the lunchroom where some of them were already seated, was in a pink color, according to the rightful owner of that room. Pinkie was cooking different dishes for dinner while next to her, Rainbow Dash was serving drinks to her friends behind the long bar table.

Fluttershy, was sitting on a velvet stool swirling the caipirinha that Rainbow had served her.

"You're going to make the glass dizzy Shy" Dash said jokingly as she washed a glass and began pouring herself a rum and coke. "I promise the peppermint has been cut with no malice."

"Don't worry Dashie" Shy told her gulping down the whole caipirinha "Pour me another..."

"Going strong today huh?" he said as he made her another cocktail. "Don't blame yourself for what happened earlier."
"I don't know what happened to me Dash... it was the first time I lost control... it wasn't the first time those witches messed with me... Why did it affect me so much?" said Shy in a sad tone

"The same reason it's affected us all silly" said Pinkie as she took a four cheese pizza out of the oven "They messed with Spikey-Wikey and no one messes with Spikey-Wikey"

"That's where Pinkie's right" said Dash "Don't blame yourself, if it hadn't been you, any of us would have jumped."

"I've never had a jealous fit like that before... not even when I caught Thunder cheating on me... the first time..." said Shy as he grabbed the refilled caipirinha

"It's something even absurd isn't it?" said Applejack walking inside the kitchen with a beer in her hand "Two weeks ago we didn't care... it comes as a quirk of fate, that you Shy stayed that Friday in the library and the cake was discovered... it's strange don't you think?"

"Don't think that so much AJ" Pinkie said as she continued cooking, this time, some heart stopping burgers, except a vegan one for Fluttershy. "Just think, when we were clueless and thought T-Wings were the best, we weren't full at all."
What Pinkie said threw them a little off balance.

"What do you mean?" asked Shy.

"What I mean is... I don't know if you all felt it... but with the T-Wings when we were with the real ones... yeah, we were fine... but just plain, like deep down, deep down, we knew they weren't the same T-Wings we saw each other alone with... so now that the cake has been unveiled and we've recognized who our true love was... I feel full." Pinkie explained finishing the last burger.

"You're absolutely right about that one, I have feelings all over the place... it's thinking about that little guy and..." said Fluttershy turning red.

"And having pepsicola panties right?" said Dash smiling teasingly.

"Rainbow Dash!" shouted the shy pegasus in embarrassment.

"Hey, no need to be embarrassed, I admit it, I remember that erotic dream every night and gosh...let's just say we could name a new ocean with my sheets." Dash said smiling as he took a big sip of his drink.

"Don't talk about wetting the bed thinking about Spike because I'll beat you to it," said Applejack "That you just imagined it, I've had him between these two legs and I assure you, that image doesn't go away."

"Can we stop talking about this!" said Shy red as a tomato.

"Oh come on Shy" said Pinkie " We' re living beings and friends, come on, I'm sure you've had some impure thoughts too."

"I..." said the pegasus "Pff... okay... yeah, I don't know what's wrong with me, I just think about him and bam, I'm already turned on, I see him walking down the hallways and I just feel like drowning him... but not with my hands no. To put that little face of his between my two buttocks and my two breasts until he couldn't breathe, to immediately grab him by the shoulders, take tape and stick his cock in my mouth and suck and suck and suck and suck and suck and suck until he's completely dry, malnourished, and when he couldn't get any more, keep sucking more and more and when he couldn't get any more, I would ride on top of him and bounce and bounce and bounce and bounce and bounce until I sucked him with my vagina and he would be inside me forever and we would be one...

The three friends listening to Fluttershy, as with every word her face became even hungrier and her look became completely perverted, contrary to how she completely is, made them all gape at her, not knowing what to say, even the others who were in the lunchroom, stared at her perplexed.

Shy, as she came to, her whole body went hell red and she flew into a corner hiding behind her wings from the incredible embarrassment of having been released from her lewd thoughts.

Dash went for her and slowly lifted her up, she had her wings taut hiding her a bit and having her gaze to the ground.

"That... that's pretty intense Shy" said Applejack putting on her hat.

"Man let's see... maybe you can kill the kid if you do that to him... but who are we kidding, I'd do the same thing" said Pinkie.

"Nothing to be ashamed of Shy dear" said Rarity from the other room "Those thoughts we all have...maybe wanting other things not so extreme but...yeah we're with you."

Shy just nodded, sat back down on the stool and took another sip of the caipirinha.

"Pour me another... please..." she said almost whispering.

" C' mon, I like this game" said Dash kinging the cup to Shy "Why don't we talk, not only about what we would do to the boy alone, but what we would like to do with him?"

"Works for me" said Applejack

"I'm in" said Sunset sipping her Sex On The Beach.

"Oki doki loki" said Pinkie smiling.

"It'll be fun" said Rarity sipping on a glass of wine

"Yaaay" said Shy whispering.

They all then looked at Twi, who stood there for a few seconds thinking, looked at a picture of her and Flash in the cell phone and downing her vodka lime in one gulp, turned off the phone.

"Come on... why not" the alicorn finished saying.

The hours passed between food, alcohol and tobacco among the seven friends, confessing the truths about what they think of Spike over the huge lunchroom table, full of dirty dishes, drinks, ashtrays, under a warm orange light.

"I remember *hic* when we were little *hic*" commented Sunset Shimmer "That when he *hic* laughed *hic* he looked just like a little piggy."

"Nooooo" said Shy with a tender face "How cute *hic*."

"Piggy *hic* is how he's going to stay *hic* with me *hic*" laughed Rainbow Dash smoking a cigarette "I plan to suck him dry."

"Uhhh how much ghost *hic* do I see around here" said Applejack drinking her fifth beer "Just looking at him *hic* you cum *hic* three seconds I give you in real life."

They all started laughing.

"Well, well *hic*, well" said Dash with a drunken grin "At least I don't plan on tying him up like a ham like a damsel here."
Dash pointed towards Rarity, which made everyone laugh.

"Hey *hic* to each *hic* their fantasies *hic*" Rarity said "For fantasies, *hic* Twilight's *hic*" Rarity said laughing.

"Hey... *hic* since *hic* Flash never let me *hic* do her *hic* so, here's to trying him *hic*" said with a big blush for alcohol Twilight

"Wait... wait... wait... wait *hic*" said Pinkie Pie "Are you... *hic* assuming... *hic* you're going to try it with Spikey?"

"Noooo, nooo, *hic*" said Twilight giggling and putting a finger to her lips "That *hic* hasn't *hic* come out *hic* of my mouth."

"Yes, yes" they all said at the same time.

"Admit it *hic* for once Twilight *hic* you *hic* like the green-haired guy *hic*" said Dash "Like all *hic* of us."

"Well" replied the alicorn "Maybe a little bit *hic*."

" She said it!" said Pinkie getting up from the table which made everyone give her a standing ovation.

"But just a little bit *hic*" said Twi laughing.

"We'll see *hic* how much *hic* that little bit is *hic*" said Shy with mocking eyes.

" Killing him to blow jobs *hic* like you, I'm not going to do" said Twilight picking on her friend a little bit.

"Eh *hic*" said Shy with a drunken smirk "There's no sweeter death".

"Snu-snu" commented Pinkie in an amazon voice, imitating a gorilla which made them all laugh loudly

"It's amazing girls *hic* don't you think?" commented Sunset "The whole school *hic* losing their asses *hic* over us *hic* being all but *hic* exceptions hot and us *hic* over the one guy *hic* who won't accept anyone."

"Love *hic* is fickle *hic*" Shy replied.

"No doubt about it *hic*" said Applejack finishing her can of beer "I wonder *hic* what he's doing now *hic*"

"Hopefully *hic* he's practicing for the contest *hic*" said Sunset "I'd love *hic* to hear him sing again *hic*"

"Did he *hic* sing *hic* well?" asked Fluttershy to which Sunset nodded as she lit a cigarette.

"He had an incredibly powerful voice... *hic* thanks to him *hic* I started liking Coltalica *hic*"

"Really?" asked Dash to which the unicorn nodded again.

"Eyup" she said imitating Applejack's sibling, which made them laugh.

"You mimic *hic* Big Mac well" said Applejack "Although it's deeper *hic* his voice *hic* more inward... Eyuuuup"

They all laughed again until Twilight looked worriedly at the floor.

"What's wrong *hic* dear *hic*?" asked Rarity to her.

"Oh *hic* it's nothing *hic* it's just... What will our families say?" said Twilight worried "Shinning... I don't *hic* even know *hic* how many *hic* nomags he's imprisoned *hic* anymore *hic* what if *hic* he doesn't accept Spike?"

"If *hic* we *hic* end up *hic* cementing *hic* a *hic* haremnous relationship with him *hic* they'll have to accept him *hic*" Pinkie said with a half smile, trying to calm Twilight down

"If he were *hic* a magical being *hic* there would be no problem *hic*" said Twilight "But *hic* he's... a nomag."

"I'm *hic* sick *hic* of that word" said Shy sadly and angrily.

"You and all Shy *hic*" said Rarity "Nomag, *hic*, dragon *hic*, unicorn *hic* what difference does it make?"

"Wow Rares *hic* who has seen you and who sees you *hic*" said Rainbow Dash putting out her cigarette butt in an ashtray that had been left for her. "Well *hic* actually *hic* us all *hic*. We used to hate nomags *hic* and in about a week and a half *hic* fighting for their rights *hic*"

"I think *hic* we all needed *hic* a reality hit *hic*" said Applejack.

Little by little, the night went by. Only the same people who lived in the house were left in it. Pinkie had fallen asleep on the couch in the living room and Twilight and Sunset were in the garden, with a coffee to watch the sunrise.

"Quite a night huh..." said Sunset taking a sip from her cup, sitting on one of the plastic chairs they had around an iron table.

"No doubt... Pinkie singing " Mi estrella blanca" along with Rarity was amazing" said Twilight laughing.

"I don't think they will sing as bad as Zephry will do next Friday at the contest" laughed Sunset

"That's true" said Twilight

"Twi... about the monotheme almost... what are you going to do with Flash?" said Sunset "I know you're still not quite sure..."

The alicorn sipped from the cup looking at the floor sadly.

"Tonight... it has made me think... you are right in many ways..." said Twilight "Flash is not who I thought he was... Who was there helping me study for finals? Spike... Who brought me class notes and chicken soup when I was sick? Spike... Who... held my hand when I was scared, overwhelmed or sad...? Spike... that's who I fell in love with, who I thought was Flash... but it was him all along....

"What's the problem then Twi?" asked Sunset "I notice love in those words... What's got your back? And don't tell me about him being a nomag, because I don't believe it. I've been your best friend for years, and I know you and I know that when you love someone, there's no barrier you can't overcome..."

A tear escaped from the alicorn's eyes.

"I'm the one to blame..." said Twilight "Spike... reminds me... because of me... thousands of people out there in the world... are judged and punished as criminals... just for not being magical... if I hadn't awakened magic... everything would have been different... maybe I could give him powers... everything would be simpler... but..."

"But he wouldn't be the person you fell in love with" Sunset completed the sentence for her.

Twilight looked at her crying and Sunset grabbed her hand.

"It's my fault Sunset... that they do those horrible things to him... I'm the bearer of magic... and I don't know how to manage it... I don't deserve to be the bearer of anything..." she told her trying not to cry loudly

"We are still learning... a lifetime of learning..." said Sunset "Besides, Zecora already told us... if the elements chose us... it is because they saw in us worthy bearers... with much to learn... but worthy."

Twilight remained silent, watching as the sky slowly tinged orange with dawn.

"Don't let your conscience keep you from seeing what's right in front of you... which in this case... is a kind, funny, honest, loyal, generous, forgiving, magical hooded knight..." said Sunset comforting her with a smile which caused one to appear on her face as well.

"Thank you Samantha..." said Twilight "Really."

"We're all in this Tamara" said Sunset "You're not alone... and if we go over the cliff, it will be all of us holding hands, doing whatever our hearts dictate."

The two friends smiled and watched as the sun was appearing over the sea and the mountains.

The weekend flew by for everyone in the city. On the week of the contest, the senior classrooms were completely empty, all the students concentrating on the songs they had composed. The rehearsal rooms were full and occupied by the various students who wanted not only the best rooms, but to be neighbors with the Harmonys. Many commented on how amazing they were during rehearsals, showing the video of their fight against the Dazzlings, fantasizing that someday they would figure in them.

The three mermaid sisters, meanwhile, were in the library again, trying to get something straight from the Afton family.

"This is going to be impossible" commented Adagio "It's like they never existed, there's nothing about them on the internet."

"What about the news?" asked Aria "Have you found out what restaurant William Afton opened with the other two?"

"Nothing...as if the past has volatilized." Said Adagio

"And no one in this town remembers a franchise opened by him?" asked Aria

"Over the weekend I went to hypnotize some city hall officials" said Sonata "And they didn't have they knew of no franchise, I even gave them to see the picture of the headline and they don't remember anything..."

Adagio frowned and massaged his head, trying to unmask their missing piece.

"Afton may not have been known... but what about the other two? F.F.P and H.B.E.?" said Sonata.

"Those two are the key..." said Adagio "Who are they?"

Aria paced around the library trying to think. She stared at the screen of one of the computers and a spark awoke in her mind, as she got closer, she saw the manufacturer's inscription on the computer monitor.

"Fancy&W Coorporation" muttered Aria.

"Are you saying something Aria?" asked Adagio.

"F.F.P." said realizing it Aria "Francis... Fancy... Pants... F.F.P."

Sonata and Adagio got up from the chairs where they were in front of the computer and went to her.

"Fancy Pants?" said Adagio "The cybersecurity magnate?"

"Makes sense... if he was one of the three that created the restaurant and something bad happened there..." said Aria excitedly

"He would have erased the existence of any evidence on the internet... Aria you are a genius!" said Adagio hugging his sister.

"Not only that..." said Sonata looking at the inscription on the monitor. "The double w... William..."

The three of them looked at each other with mischievous smiles.

"It seems to me that soon..." said Adagio mischievously "We will have to pay a visit to Mr. Fancy Pants... but first... we have to win the heart of that boy... victory will be much sweeter that way..."

The three stood laughing in the library.

Friday arrived and the auditorium was filled with excited students. They had set up a table for the Harmony girls, who were already seated, with the list of all the students who were going to participate in the contest. The girls were looking everywhere in search of the same goal.

"I don't see him anywhere" said worried Fluttershy telepathically.

"Me neither" said Applejack "maybe he didn't want to participate..."

"His name doesn't appear on the list..." said Twilight

"Don't lose hope girls" said Pinkie "I'm sure he'll show up... I expect..."

Discord peeked through the stage curtains and gave them the signal to start already to which they nodded and out came Pinkie onto the stage.

"That's my girlfriend!" shouted Cheese getting up and causing the other students to cheer and shout compliments at her.

"Good afternoon Canterlot High!" said the earthling with a smile. "The day has finally arrived. The long-awaited trip is coming up, classmates, to celebrate our last year here. I can already see some of you looking forward to putting on sunscreen on the beaches of Bora Bora or going to the cruise ship SPA after a good meal in their restaurants."
The crowd began to cheer for Pinkie, excited to get started already.

"Let's not stall this wait any longer" Pinkie said "I hope you are ready to compete for the best rooms, so... Good luck everyone!"

Pinkie returned to her seat along with the Harmonys, ready to listen to the students.

Almost an hour had passed and three of the groups had already performed earning applause from the various students there.

"Thank you Vinyl and Octavia for that techno-classical performance, you are very good girls." Pinkie said into a microphone.

"Thank you Pinkie" said both friends at the same time as they walked off the stage.

"Next" she said reading the list "Zephry Breeze...and the...lovers?"

"Oh my..." said Fluttershy holding her hand to her head.

"No way..." said Rainbow Dash covering her face.

Zephry appeared from behind the curtains with a superb smile. Behind him, Snips and Snails appeared wearing sunglasses and grinning goofily.

"Uh... Zephry..." said Pinkie "Only seniors could perform."

"Oh Pinkie, don't worry about them, they're just coming to help me, I'm the only prize winner." She said smiling

"Okay...well...." Pinkie said looking at the girls. " Whenever you want."

Zephry stepped up to the microphone and began clearing his throat to clear his voice.

"I DEDICATE IT TO YOU RAINBOW DASH!" the pegasus said yelling into the microphone, making Dash turn red with embarrassment.

At the end of the song, the three friends leaned on their backs as if they were rappers, waiting for an ovation from the audience. However, the whole room was silent, with faces of disgust, embarrassment or laughing very loud like the T-Wings. The Harmony's, perplexed, didn't know at that moment what to do.

"We've left them speechless" said Snips smiling.

"We're the best" said Snails proudly.

"I know, we've dazzled you" said Zephry approaching the microphone again "I can already see myself creaming your little back on the beach... and where is it not the back my dear Dash."

After that, the three of them walked off the stage with their heads held high.

"You guys have outdone yourselves this time" Soarin said sarcastically "If you don't get my girlfriend like that, it's already impossible".

"I know" he said without realizing the sarcasm "Don't cry when I get her."

The retort only made the T-Wings laugh even more.

"Okay..." said Twilight "Let's pretend... we haven't seen this show... so..."

"Embarrassing and delefnable?" said Applejack still trying to recover.

"Please!" said Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash at the same time covering their faces with their wings and with their heads glued to the table.

Pinkie cleared her voice and approached the microphone.

"Um... excuse me... next group... the T-Wings" said Pinkie.

Thunderlane, leading the band, walked down one of the two aisles with his group to the stage. They took their places at their instruments while receiving praise and applause from the students and a fake smile from their girlfriends.

Cheese stood on drums, Sunbrust behind a mixing board, Caramel and Soarin with two basses, Blueblood along with Thunder at the lead mics and Flash on electric guitar.

"I know being the Harmony boys you guys think we'll be at an advantage" Thunder said into the microphone "But even if we weren't... we were before..."

The boys winked at the Harmony girls who smiled nervously.

"Ready guys?" shouted Thunder to his friends.

"ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!" shouted Cheese from the drum set crashing the sticks.

As the song played, and the T-Wings sang, sometimes just Blueblood, sometimes just Thunder, like a concert, all the students shouted and danced from their seats, feeding the boys' egos. Even some of the Harmony girls couldn't resist bobbing their heads to the rhythm of the song and the boys' voices.

Just as they finished, a standing ovation and applause swept through the room from every corner.

"Thank you Canterlot!" shouted Thunder through the microphone like a rock star.

The Harmony's sighed and wrote on their sheets what they thought of their performance.

"Thank you so much cuties" said Pinkie falsely through the microphone "You guys are the best!"

Again, another standing ovation and applause went around the room as they returned to their seats.

"We've outdone ourselves this time" commented Sunbrust among them.

"Tonight, I have no doubt gentlemen, that my Rarity will reward me for my beautiful voice" said Blueblood with mange and pride.

"I don't know..." said Flash worried "They don't seem to be themselves..."

"You worry too much buddy" said Cheese giving him a friendly slap on the back. "Just because Twi told you, don't let me down, like she hasn't told you a million times and it always ends up coming back, like some flies to your peanut butter sandwich."

The T-Wings sat back in their seats as the next contestants came up to play and began singing.

"Yeah... but it was different this time," Flash told him "Something's happened between them... and I don't know what it is..."
Thunder, who was listening to the conversation, gave a half smile and noticed, that the door to the auditorium opened, letting in a hooded, darkened figure who was walking behind the stage unnoticed.

"I do know what our dear little whores are thinking" thought Thunder Machiavellianly "This trip is going to be very interesting."

Three songs later, almost every band on the bill was on, with the exception of the last one.

"Who's playing now?" asked Applejack drinking from a water bottle.

"Oh my..." said Fluttershy worriedly "The Dazzlings."

"Wonderful" said Rainbow Dash sarcastically.

"Next and last group" said Pinkie sighing, trying to keep her composure "The Dazzlings."

Many of the boys, upon hearing that name, began to clap and whistle at the three mermaids rhythmically taking the stage, lewd comments and compliments went around the room, further boosting the mermaids' egos.

"Make it a contest with no recortions guys" Adagio said seductively over the microphone before starting to sing. "I hope you're ready..."

At the end of the song, cheers, applause, whistles and compliments ran through the auditorium for the performance of the Dazzlings, whose gems began to shine due to the strong emotions they had awakened towards them, filling it with life.
"This is the glory," Adagio said softly, with a tone like a junkie doing cocaine.

The Harmonys, though annoyed with the presence of the sirens, had to admit that they sang well and not make a fuss.

"Thank you Dazzlings" said Pinkie somewhat annoyed "You can come downstairs."

"Please..." said Adagio mockingly and smiling into the microphone "No hard feelings..."

The three sirens descended towards their seats as rage began to bubble up among the Harmonys.

"How I would break their heads..." said Dash telepathically.

"Keep your composure Dashie... they just want to tickle us" Twilight replied.

" Don't let them look too hard" said Dash "Because they'll find them for me."

Pinkie, sheets in hand, turned her back to the stage and addressed her companions.

"Well guys, the soiree is over and we just need to deliver who will be the winners of..." said Pinkie with a smile before being interrupted.

"Oh come on!" shouted a unicorn with a hateful face "Who let that monster participate?"

"Yes!" said a pegasus "Off the stage you murderer!"

The Harmony's, turned their gaze to the stage to the stage, where, standing with his hood up, was Spike in front of the microphone, motionless and with a look of indifference to his companions.

"Get out you filthy nomag!" shouted a pegasus from behind him.

"Yes!" shouted an earthling "Get out! Boo!"

Everyone began to boo him except for Thunder who looked at him smiling evilly, the Dazzlings who looked at him interestedly and the Harmony's who couldn't help but smile at the sight of him. Spike, however, still wore the same cold expression.

"Guys!" shouted Pinkie while still looking at Spike with an unnoticed smile "Whether we like it or not, and I'm telling you we don't, we have to let him participate..."

The students, annoyed sat back down, muttering and glaring at him with hatred.

Spike turned his head and looked at Discord, who was behind the curtains along with Celestia and Luna. The nomag nodded to them and Discord plugged a USB into the instrument speakers. On the back screen, four collage videos began to play of Spike playing various instruments such as his drums and guitar, but also a bass guitar and a mixer and without warning or speech, he began to sing.

During the whole song, everyone was perplexed and speechless, with their mouths open like tunnels, the Harmonies were amazed by the powerful voice of the nomag and Sunset, even, began to remember the afternoons in the park when they were little and sang while eating ice cream, not being able to prevent tears from escaping from her eyes. Discord, Celestia and Luna, behind the stage, began to jump and move their heads to the sound of the song as if they were at a metal concert.

As the song ended, with the last scream, everyone was still silent. Spike was catching his breath as he looked around at everyone in front of him. He watched as the Dazzlings, surprised, applauded without making a sound, the T-Wings, watched him with envy except for Thunder who remained motionless and smiling. The Harmonies, on the other hand, had a mixture of awe and wonder, all without a word.

Spike quietly exited the stage, but not before mockingly bowing to those present. He walked slowly down the corridor, while people watched him with envy. He opened the door to the auditorium and stepped out.

"Just like old times Spikey" thought Sunset with a smile "Quite the cynic."

Pinkie stood up and addressed her classmates.

"Well, boys that's all, you can go. On Monday you'll have the award winners on the corkboard in the hall with their respective rooms. You have all been amazing performances, thank you so much!" said Pinkie Pie excitedly through the microphone.

All the students soon began to leave the school. When the Harmony's came out, in their cars, still parked in the parking lot, the T-Wings were waiting for them. Seeing them, the girls swallowed saliva and with their best smile, went to them.
"Those gorgeous judges!" said Cheese going for Pinkie who lifted her up to the heavens and kissed her passionately "And you the best my cupcake."

"Aw Cheese" she said with fake charm.

"What did you think of my performance Rarity?" said Blueblood with great haughtiness "You loved it didn't you?"

"Of... course Blueblood darling..." she said trying not to make too much eye contact with the unicorn.

Flash grabbed Twilight's waist and kissed her hard.

"You were a little distracted Twi. What was wrong with you?" said Flash a little worried.

"Who, me?" she said worriedly as everyone looked at her worriedly "I...I just...well...you know...test scores and all...robotics final didn't go so well..."

Flash with a sigh, breathing a sigh of relief.

"Really Twilight" said Flash laughing "How stupid you are, always worrying about your studies, it's normal that some people say you're a prudish girl, always devouring books. Stop being so dumb to worry about some exams and let loose a little, you always look like you're so bitter."

The T-Wings laughed making Twilight feel very bad, on the verge of crying. She looked at her friends who with their gaze told her to calm down, so the alicorn took a deep breath and tried to think of something else. In the background, near the door of the institute was Spike, as usual, smoking and with his hood up. The nomag turned his head and looked at the Harmony's as the T-Wings continued to laugh at Twilight. She stared into his eyes even though she was far away. The alicorn's eyes turned emerald green, she took a deep breath and all the negative feelings dissipated. The Harmony's noticed and smiled.

"Calmer, Twilight?" asked Sunset telepathically.

"No doubt" said Twi tenderly.

"Works wonders the Kara Sevda huh?" said Dash.

Twilight stood watching the nomag, who also didn't look away from her and almost knowing what she was about to do, he nodded, to give her confidence.

"I don't plan to hold back anymore, girls." He told them confidently to which they all smiled.

Twilight turned to Flash who was almost crying with laughter, then, surprising the T-Wings, Twilight slapped him across the face.

"Look Flash... I'm going to tell you very clear" she said with incredible courage "I may be a prudish or a bitter, but at least when I cum I don't start crying, I at least pass my exams cleanly and above all and first and foremost, I'm more faithful than a penguin. I can't say the same for the scum that you are Flash Sentry, that if it wasn't because you grew some ridiculous wings you would be nothing but slag. And you T-Wings, you're nothing more than him... the most popular, the most false and arrogant of all. You're worse than a bean stew at night, and at least the bean stew tastes good, not like your dirty cocks that you haven't washed in three years. So now, if you'll excuse me, the prudish girl is going to have a drink with her friends. Oh, in case you couldn't get it through your head Flash, I'm breaking up with you, fucking bastard!"
The Harmony girls proudly plucked up their courage and went along with the alicorn who was walking with dignity to her car.

"Where do you think you're going?!" yelled Caramel angrily and helplessly at them.

"Did you hear about Twilight, Caramel?" said Applejack smiling "Well the same for all of you.

"Fuck you all T-Wings!" said Dash giving them the finger "We're free, suckers!"

They all got into their cars, and started speeding, towards the center of town.

When they passed in front of Spike, who was watching them go, it was like time stopped and they all looked at him from their respective cars, smiling in love, Twilight still with her emerald green eyes, released from the pressure, to which the nomag, responded with a half smile of pride.

The cars, disappeared under the setting sun that was hidden by the buildings of the city, while gleefully, Spike gazed unnoticed at the T-Wings, who perplexed, some open-mouthed, some angry and Flash processing what had just happened, watched as their now ex-girlfriends drove off into the city. He laughed, hit his skates and got on the road, heading to his apartment to rest and start organizing the plan to get the Fire Ruby with a big smile on his lips.
