Romancing a dragon

It’s been a few weeks since our favorite heroines defeated the Storm king and restored balance to the universe… again, and headed back to their small town of Ponyville for some much deserved R&R.

Things had been going great, everything was calm, and there was no sign of it changing in the near future.

Things were so great, that no one seemed to care about their responsibilities at all, even more, no one even seemed to care about that, not even the royal family themselves.

Well, almost everyone, there was still one person in the whole town that was still working himself to the bone.

“AND… ONE MORE… THERE!!!... HUFF, that took longer than expected,” thought Spike as he climbed down the ladder.

Once he reached the floor, he looked around at the sparkling library he had just finished cleaning.

“Well, this was the last place I was supposed to clean… it took me forever, but I finally cleaning the whole castle… except for Twilight’s and Starlight’s bedrooms, I don’t think it’ll be a good idea to enter without their permission,” thought Spike

Just then the library door swung open, scarring Spike half to death

“Spike! There you are, we’ve been looking all over for you,” said Twilight as she and Starlight walked into the library

“Wow, you did all this on your own, impressive,” said Starlight

“Thanks! I would’ve finished faster if you’d at least helped me by carrying the supplies from place to place… Did you need something?” asked Spike with a forced smile

“We just wanted to let you know that we’re off to Rarity’s for the evening, and won’t be back until tomorrow morning,” said Twilight

“So, don’t wait up on us… also, you should probably take a bath,” said Starlight

“Yeah, I did WORK myself to the bone today,” said Spike

“I can tell, there is, literally, a puddle of sweat forming beneath you,” said Starlight

Spike then looked down and saw the puddle in question

“Impressive… don’t worry, I’ll mop it up and then I’ll go and prepare to sleep,” said Spike

“It’s 6 in the afternoon,” said Twilight

“And I am beat,” said Spike as he began to mop the puddle of sweat into extinction

“You know, our offer is still on the table,” said Twilight

“What offer?” asked Spike

“That you come with us to Rarity’s,” said Starlight

“OH!... Nah, I wouldn’t bring much to the ambiance as it is,” said Spike

“But, Rarity said that we should ALL go,” said Twilight, Rarity’s true intentions escaping her brain

“Twilight, tell Rarity that I thank her for her invitation, but… I’m a man, despite how I look, and I don’t do well with… girl talk, plus, I wouldn’t be long before I start snoring, I wouldn’t want to embarrass any of you or make uncomfortable,” said Spike

‘But…” said Twilight

“My mind is set, Twi, but have fun, the 2 of you, don’t worry about me,” said Spike with a fake smile

“If you say so,” they both said reluctantly as they walked out of the library

“It’s for the best anyway,” thought Spike as he continued to mop the floor, but stopped when he felt a sharp pain in his chest, followed by a difficulty to breathe.

Spike held his chest as he gasped, frantically, for air, his scales at this point turning a darker shade of purple.

Just as sudden as it started, it stopped; Spike just laid on the ground taking deep breaths

“Wha-what just… happen?” said Spike as he got up from the ground.

He stumbled for the wall as he tried to stabilize himself

“Maybe I overdid myself today… I should probably go to bed… I’ll clean up tomorrow, not like Twilight is going to complain,” said Spike as he walked towards his room.

A FEW MINUTES LATER, WITH TWILIGHT AND STARLIGHT

“I don’t know what is wrong with him, every time we ask him to join us and the girls in something he refuses,” said Twilight as she and Starlight turned into the small path that led to Rarity’s boutique

“Maybe you're overthinking things,” said Starlight

“What if we did something to offend him?!” said Twilight in a panic

“Twilight, you’ve know Spike longer than I have, If we did something you should know,” said Starlight

“ARE YOU SERIOUSLY GOING TO TRY WASHING YOUR HANDS ON THIS MATTER!!!” said Twilight

“I’m not… I just don’t know him that well,” said Starlight

“We’ve lived together for almost 8 years now,” said Twilight

“I know, but… I think Spike is just at that age where you become rebellious and all,” said Starlight

“Puberty?” asked Twilight

“Yup, give it some time, he’ll go back to normal,” said Starlight

“If you say so,” said Twilight as she rung Rarity’s doorbell

“COMING!!” singed Rarity as she came to open the door

“Hey Rarity,” said Twilight and Starlight

“Hello, girls, welcome… Where is my little Spikey-Wikey?” asked Rarity with a Smile

“He’s not coming, he thanked you for the invitation though,” said Twilight

“Oh,” said Rarity, her voice full of disappointment “Well, he must have his reason, no point in arguing over it,” she said “Come on in,”

“Are we the last ones to arrive?” asked Starlight

“Yes, but not for much, Sunset just got here herself,” said Rarity as they all entered the living room

“Hey girls!” said Starlight

“Hello!!!” they all answered

“How have you been?” asked Applejack

“Normal… normal,” said Starlight

“What about you girls?” asked Twilight

“We’re doing great,” they all said

“I just got an invitation to join the Fashion Festival in Marelan next year,” said Rarity as she sat down on the couch and with a cup of wine in her hand

“Cool, my family and ah just finished a business deal that will export our products to the rest of Equestria,” said Applejack

“I created a new type of pastry that is flying off the stands, it's a total HIT!” said Pinkie jumping up and down

“I just finished my degree in culinary arts, so now I’ll be able to open my own sushi bar,” said Sunset Shimmer

“My health has been good, other than that I can’t complain,” said Fluttershy

“Well, I definitely can’t really complain, I mean, I was just selected to join the Wonderbolts official team, no longer am I part of the reserves,” said Rainbow Dash

“Congratulations,” said Twilight

“Thanks,” said Rainbow Dash

“By the way, Twilight, aren’t we missing an extra pair of Dragon hands?” said Sunset

“Oh yeah, Spike’s not coming,” said Twilight

Those words made Rarity sigh in disappointment

“AGAIN!!” they all said

“Yeah, I don’t know why, but I feel like if something’s wrong, like if we did something to insult him,” said Twilight

“That’s absurd, Twilight, what could we possibly do to make Spike hate us?” said Rarity, doing her best to hide her concern.

“I told her the same thing,” said Starlight

“Well it is weird that Spike does not want to hang with us anymore,” said Fluttershy

“Well, Spike has his own private life, maybe something is happening that he hasn’t shared, like… maybe he got a girlfriend…” said Sunset Shimmer

The moment she said that Rarity, Fluttershy, and Twilight, turned pail

“Or maybe he’s working somewhere,” said Pinkie pie

“Or, he’s just trying to have some alone time, ah ain’t gonna get mad over that,” said Applejack

“Yeah, let the little squirt tend to his personal NEEDS in peace,” Rainbow Dash teased

“If he’s that pent up he could just ask me for help,” said Rarity

“ARGH! DASH THAT IS DISGUSTING!” said Twilight

“Oh, come on Twi, it’s not like you don’t masturbate,” said Rainbow Dash

“W-Well… It’s not something you say out loud, especially behind people’s backs,” said Twilight

“It’s not like that little fact is going to make Spike angry,” said Rainbow Dash

“Well it makes me angry,” said Twilight as she got on Rainbow Dash’s face

Sensing the tension in the room, Rarity clapped her hands and said

“Now that we’re talking about this, why don’t we talk about our Exes?”

“Rarity, hate to burst your bubble, but, apart from Sunset Shimmer and Starlight, no one in this room has any dating experience,” said Applejack

“I have plenty,” Rarity protested

“You’ve never been in a relationship that lasted more than one date,” said Sunset Shimmer

“Wha! Well… I… I just haven’t found the proper man yet,” Rarity lied

“Oh, come on Rarity, you haven’t even had your first kiss yet,” said Rainbow Dash

“That’s not…” Rarity said

“And the last time you went on a date was 5 years ago… and it was a catastrophe,” said Pinkie Pie

“Well, It’s kind of hard to go on a date, when the man you want to ask doesn’t get a damn clue even if you spell it out for him, true… I decided to take a small break from dating,” said Rarity

“So you’re not going to try to break up a marriage,” said Sunset Shimmer

“I never broke up a marriage!!!” said Rarity

“Well, I thought you were going to go break Fancy Pants’ marriage to Fleur de Lis,” said Sunset Shimmer

“Oh no, I am way over Fancy Pants,” said Rarity

“Good, cause he just married Sassy Saddles as well,” said Sunset Shimmer

“WHAT?!!!” screamed Rarity

“Yeah, according to what I heard, Fleur invited Sassy saddles to a party at their house, but she thought it was a date, well after some drinks she tried to have sex with Fleur but she was in the middle of milking Fancy Pants dry when she found them, one thing led to another, and the rest is history,” said Sunset Shimmer

“I didn’t know Sassy was a lesbian,” said Rarity

“Oh, she was, now she considers herself Bi-sexual… just like almost all of the woman in Equestria,” said Sunset Shimmer

“Are you Bi-sexual?” asked Rarity

“Not really, but I can see how, when the pleasure is great you stop caring,” said Sunset Shimmer

“Oh, I have an idea for a game!!!” said Pinkie Pie as she began to jump up and down again

“Ok,” said Twilight

“Let’s play truth or dare,” said Pinkie Pie

“Pinkie, we’re grown women, we’re not going to…” began Rarity

“WE’RE IN!!!” everyone said

“Fine,” said Rarity

“But how are we going to know who’s turn it is?” asked Twilight

“Simple, we just write down our names in a piece of paper, throw them into this hat and then whoever’s name comes out is asked the question,” said Pinkie

“And who is going to ask the question?” asked Rarity

“I’ll start, and we’ll go clockwise, agreed?” said Pinkie Pie

Everyone nodded and wrote down their names

Pinkie then proceeded to write some extra papers and throw them in

“What are those?” asked Sunset

“Things to Spice things up… now, what is said in this living room stays in this living room, ok?” said Pinkie Pie as she began to mix the papers

Everyone nodded as she pulled out a paper

“EVERYONE!!! TRUTH OR DARE?!!!” she asked

The girls looked at each other and said

“Truth?

“Being truthful… raise your hand if you swing both ways or the opposite way?” said Pinkie Pie

“Pinkie, don’t you think that’s a tad personal?” asked Rarity

“That’s why we agreed that what is said here today stays here,” said Pinkie as she raised her hand

“Wait you’re a lesbian?” asked Sunset

“I’m Bi-sexual… anyone else,” Pinkie Pie answered

The girls looked around for another answer but never did they expect to see that answer

“Fluttershy… are you?” asked Rainbow Dash

“I was a lesbian before… but now there is a guy I like a lot, so,” said Fluttershy turning red

“Hey, there’s nothing to be ashamed of,” said Applejack

“Yeah, we still love you just for being who you are,” said Twilight

“Plus, love is love, no matter who you love,” said Rarity

“And I am surprised to see that neither Applejack or Rainbow Dash lifted up their hands,” said Pinkie Pie

“WE DON’T SWING THAT WAY!!!” they both said

“But, your sister said you were a lesbian,” said Pinkie

“And everyone in town thinks the same thing about you Dash,” said Starlight

“WELL THEY’RE ALL WRONG!!!” they both screamed

“Ok then, your turn now Starlight,” said Pinkie Pie as she gave her the hat

“Ok… Twilight, truth or dare?” asked Starlight

“Truth,” said Twilight

“Is it true that at some point in the recent - past future, you were interested in GL porn?” asked Starlight

“NO!!!” said Twilight

“But I found many magazines in the trash near your bedroom,” said Starlight

“They must’ve been Spike’s!” said Twilight

“If you say so,” said Starlight as she gave the hat to Fluttershy

“Sunset, truth or dare?” asked Fluttershy

“Truth,” said Sunset

“Is it true you are mortified of Spiders?” asked Fluttershy

“Yes, a million times yes, I can't even look at them without fainting,” said Sunset

Fluttershy then passed the hat to Applejack

“Dash… truth or dare?” she asked

“Dare,” said Rainbow Dash

“Ah dare you to… give the person you are the most attracted to in this room a nipple pinch, also known as a purple nurple,” said Applejack

Rainbow Dash looked around the room for a few seconds before suddenly putting her hand on Rarity’s right boob and pinching her nipple.

Everyone was expecting Rarity to scream in pain or anger, but instead, she left out a pleasure moan.

This caused her to turn red, as all the girls looked at her

Applejack just passed the hat to Sunset Shimmer

“Ask everyone… raise your hand if you’re no longer a virgin,” said Sunset but no one raised their hands… at first

“Really, everyone here is still a virgin?” asked Sunset

“I’m… I’m not a virgin,” said Starlight as she finished raising her arm

“FOR REAL?!!!!” everyone said

“Since when?” asked Twilight

“A couple of months actually,” said Starlight

“Did… did it hurt?” asked Fluttershy

“A little, but Sunburst was really gentle… although it was a very different story when he stuck it up my ass,” said Starlight

“You lost both virginities?” said Twilight

“Yeah… That was the plan, but it still hurt, even if he was being gentle,” said Starlight as Sunset handed Rainbow Dash the hat

“Rarity, truth or dare?” asked Dash

“Truth,” said Rarity

“Are you a masochist?” asked Dash

Everyone looked at Rarity

“Well, I wouldn’t say I’m a masochist, but I don’t mind the occasional roughness,” said Rarity

“How the hell do you know? You’re a virgin,” said Dash

“I’m… funny like that,” said Rarity as Dash gave her the hat

“Pinkie, truth or dare?” asked Rarity

“Dare,” said Pinkie

“I dare you to… motorboat the person you like the most in this room,” said Rarity

“Huh, that’s easy,” said Pinkie pie as she took off her shirt and bra and placed Twilight's head between her breasts, and began to jiggle them; she continued this motion for a couple of more seconds.

“That’s enough dear, and FYI the nudity part was overkill,” said Rarity

“Hey, I’m not ashamed, actually I always wanted to do that to her...and Spike,” Pinkie said as Rarity gave Starlight the hat

“Everyone… tell me the name of your crush, starting with you,” she said as she pointed to Rarity

Rarity remained silent for a few seconds before saying

“Spike,” as her face turned red

“Don’t have one,” said Dash

“Me neither,” said Sunset

“You wouldn't know him,” lied Fluttershy

“Not interested right now,” said Applejack

“I’m still not sure about it,” lied Twilight

“Twilight and…” said Pinkie Pie

“And?” everyone asked

“That’s a secret,” said Pinkie Pie

After that, the game turned somewhat boring and the girls decided to just talk or watch a movie, but it was around 11 PM that something changed in the atmosphere, everyone felt it, but only Twilight got really concerned about it.

“Does… does anyone else feel like something is wrong?” asked Twilight

“Not really, maybe it’s just you getting drunk from the wine,” said Dash

“You should drink some water,” said Rarity handing her a glass full of it

“No, there is something wrong, I can feel… I hope everything is fine,” thought Twilight

BACK AT THE CASTLE

Spike lay in bed trying to catch some sleep, but he couldn’t, he tossed and turned frantically, the heat emanating from his body, added to the pain he was feeling all over it made it a living hell for him.

His sweat-covered body, then being engulfed by a bright green light, before he passed out.

THE NEXT MORNING

Twilight awoke around 11 AM, her head was a mess and she felt horrible

“Urgh… that is the last time I drink so much,” she said as she got up and headed over to her bathroom to wash her face.

It didn’t help

“There has to be some sort of spell or remedy for hangovers… but my head hurts so much that I can’t even focus my eyes… I KNOW!! I’ll just ask Spike to cast the spell, I mean, he’s a dragon, and he can use magic properly!!” said Twilight as she headed out of her room to look for her younger, adoptive brother/No. 1 assistant.

But, even though she checked every nook and cranny in the castle, she was unable to find him.

“Did he go out or something?... Nah, it’s Saturday, he usually cleans his room… HIS ROOM!!” said Twilight as she turned the corner towards Spike’s room and barged in

“Spike, I need your help… I drank too much yesterday and I need you to cast a healing spell on me,” she said as she walked over to the curtains, opening them a little bit and feeling even worse

However, Spike didn’t budge, he didn’t even move, making Twilight a tad angry

“How can someone sleep so much?... Spike?... SPIKE, GET UP!!!!” she screamed

And with that Spike finally showed some sign of life, as he began to move under the covers

“What now Twi?” he asked

“I have a hangover and I need you to… Wait, when did his voice become deeper?” said Twilight as she turned to face Spike.

What she saw, scared her so much, her hangover was gone in an instant

“AH!!!!!!!!!!” she screamed causing Spike to follow off of his bed banging his head on the floor

“WHAT! WHAT?!!!” he said as he got up and got into a fighting stance “What was that for?” he asked when he made eye contact with Twilight.

It was at this point he noticed something

“When did you shrink… scratch that, when did the world shrink?” he said as his eyes landed on his mirror

You can assume his Jaw dropped when he saw his reflection

“AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” was all Spike said at the end

A FEW MINUTES LATER

“HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?” asked Twilight

“I have no idea,” lied Spike

“Well… we need to find out… and I know just the people that can help us!” said Twilight as she ran out of the room to find her cellphone.

Spike stared at the door and then at himself and said

“What happened?” he asked as he got off of his bed and walked up to the mirror

A FEW MINUTES LATER

“... I don’t know, he just grew overnight,” said Twilight over the phone

“Odd, well we’ll be on our way, and… Uhm… call Zecora, it’s best to have her there to explain all this,” said Celestia

“I will,” said Twilight as she hung up and called Zecora

“Hello,” said Zecora

“Zecora, I need your help, something is wrong with Spike,” said Twilight

“Ask you why I must, to reassure you it’s all fine,” said Zecora

“He just grew overnight, I mean, he went from looking like a child to a freaking adult,” Twilight said hysterically

“Oh dear, I shall be on my way, but don’t fear, these changes might not be here to stay,” said Zecora

“Thanks, Princess Celestia and Luna are on their way too,” said Twilight

“Ok,” said Zecora as she hung up. “A sudden change, I doubt it's something to fret unless his request has left…” thought Zecora as her door flew open

“Hi Zecora,” said Applebloom

“Hello dear, I fear I can’t play, I must head to the castle see this “change” Twilight explained,” said Zecora

“Oh… ok, I’ll come back tomorrow then,” said Applebloom in a disappointed voice

“No need, you can just wait right here,” said Zecora with a sly smile.

A FEW MINUTES LATER IN TWILIGHT’S CASTLE

“I’ve never seen something like this,” said Celestia as Zecora ran tests on Spike

“What happened to him, Zecora?” asked Twilight

“Nothing bad, his body just gave up,” said Zecora as she put her equipment away

“GAVE UP!!!!!” Twilight, Celestia, and Luna screamed

“Yes, gave up, of putting up a farce,” said Zecora as she gave Spike the shirt that Celestia had brought for him

“A farce?” asked Celestia

“Yes, many moons have passed, since he last asked for a change, and it seems that the request has gone, for the best,” said Zecora

“Wait, what request?” asked Twilight

“I believe it’s better for him to confess,” said Zecora

Everyone then turned to look at Spike

Spike just sighed and said

“10 years ago, on my 18th birthday, I visited Zecora after the whole growth-rampage incident, I asked her if there was a way for me to stop this sort of things to happen again… she told me that there was a potion that could seal off my dragon powers, but that I had to be careful, the seal could wore off I used too much of my Draconian Magic… After thinking about it, I came to the realization that it must’ve weakened while we were fighting the Storm king when Capper used me as a Flamethrower,” said Spike

Spike looked back up at the 3 princesses, their jaws were almost hitting the ground

“YOU DID WHAT!!!!” screamed Twilight

“YOU’RE 28!!!!” said Luna

“There was a seal on your body?” asked Celestia, calmer than the other 2

Spike nodded

“Zecora, what type of seal was it, and how exactly did it work?” asked Celestia

“It was a mystical potion, brewed to seal any sort of unhealthy devotion,” said Zecora

“Can you give him another one?” asked Luna

“Unfortunately not, his body has been blocked, It’s will not affect him anymore,” said Zecora

“So, you drink it and it controls your impulses, no matter how deeply rooted they are in your subconscious?” asked Celestia

“Yes, it is powerful, but not unbreakable,” said Zecora

“How so?” asked Luna

“In Spike’s case, it was to stop his prowess, be it mind, body, or soul, and it broke, when it overflowed,” said Zecora

“Overflowed, how?” asked Twilight

“I don’t know, there must be something else, maybe down below,” Zecora suggested, but only Celestia got the message

“So, there is nothing you can do about it?” asked Celestia

“I’m sorry, but not,” said Zecora

“Well, that’s that then… we’re just going to have to accept Spike’s new look,” said Celestia

“That’s all?” asked Twilight

“Well yes,” said Zecora

“I mean, it’s not like he is a menace to society, he is basically an overgrown teddy bear,” said Celestia

Spike was happy that they weren’t afraid of him, but Celestia's description of him made his pride hurt badly.

“Well… I’ll get back to cleaning the castle,” said Spike as he got up

“Ok then, we’ll be taking our leave… Twilight mind seeing us off,” said Celestia

“Sure… thing, Princess,” said Twilight nervously as she walked out of the room with them.

Spike watched them disappear around the corner and then turned to look at himself in the mirror

“Is that really all?... I feel like they are hiding something from… me,” said Spike as he looked at the door and quickly walked out of the room to try and stop Celestia, Luna, and Zecora and ask them what they were hiding.

He was almost at the front door of the castle when he heard Celestia’s voice, it was muffled so he hurried to try and stop them, however, he stopped when he heard the end of the conversation.

“... dangerous, he has no control over it, and I doubt anyone in this land has, he better leave,” he heard Celestia say

Spike felt his heartbreak, and a single tear fell from his face, especially when he heard twilight say

“But there must be something else we can do… I’ll see to it,” she said

Spike then headed back to his room and began packing his belongings.

He was almost halfway when he looked over to his desk and got an idea.

ONE HOUR LATER

“... So, let me get this straight… Spike had some sort of metamorphosis and the princess wants us to help him… why, exactly?” asked Rainbow Dash

“Because it’s either that, or we have to say goodbye to him forever, and I’m kind of surprised by your reaction,” said Twilight

“Yeah Dash, some friend you are,” Pinkie Pie

“I must agree with them, have you forgotten all of the things Spike has done for you?” asked Rarity, anger in her voice

“Hey, I’m not against the idea of him staying here, I just think we should come up with a better strategy,” said Rainbow Dash

“REALLY?! Well, let’s hear your brilliant idea!” said Twilight getting in her face

“I… I have nothing… yet,” said Rainbow Dash

“And you won’t, thinking isn’t your strong fort,” said Twilight

“HEY!!! That was uncalled for!” said Rainbow Dash

“But she does make a good point,” Sunset Shimmer giggled

“ENOUGH!! Right now we should be thinkin’ of ways to help Spike, not argue amongst all of us like little nibblets,” said Applejack

“I second that,” said Fluttershy

“SIGH! Your right, sorry Dash, this whole thing has got me under a lot of stress,” said Twilight as they turned the corner to Spike’s room

“Hey I don’t blame you, I’d react the same way if it were Tank,” said Rainbow Dash

“SPIKE IS NOT MY PET!!!” said Twilight

“I know, but Tank is extremely important to me,” said Rainbow Dash

“Well that makes sense,” said Twilight as she knocked on Spike’s door “Spike, it’s just us, can we come in?” asked Twilight

No answer

“Spike?” asked Twilight knocking harder, only for the door to open on its own

“He ain’t here,” said Applejack as they all entered his room

“Where could he be?” asked Twilight

“Did you sent him on an errand?” asked Sunset Shimmer

“No, he just said he was going to clean the castle, but so far we haven’t found him,” said Twilight as she turned to look around the room

“Twilight?” said Pinkie

“Yeah?” asked Twilight

“2 things, first, can you tell Rarity to stop rolling around in Spike’s bed, it’s creepy… And it’s making me tick… “ said Pinkie pie, as everyone turned to see their fashionista friend jumping out of Spike’s bed with a red face.

“And 2?” asked Twilight

“There’s a letter addressed to you,” said Pinkie giving her the letter

Twilight read through it and her skin went pale as tears began to fall from her eyes

“Twilight?” asked Rarity

“He’s… he’s gone,” said Twilight as more tears fell from her eyes

“WHAT?!!!!” everyone said as they read the letter

“Dear Twilight, thank you for everything you gave me since we first met back when you hatched me, coming to Ponyville, through all of our adventures till today. Thank you for always trusting me, and supporting me, I am blessed to have had you in my life, as a sister, and especially as a friend; but, the time has come for me to leave, I dreaded that this day will come, but we must accept, it’s for the best. Thank you again. Your Brother and friend. Spike,”

“No,” Rarity said

“COME ON, HE MUST STILL BE IN TOWN!” said Twilight as they all rushed out of the castle, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy leaping out of the window to scout from the air.

ON A HILL OUTSIDE OF PONYVILLE

Spike continued to hike his way further away from town, his mind fixated on his latest interactions with the people from town, many of which, he considered friends, as he walked towards the town border

“OH MY GOD! IT’S A DRAGON!!!” some screamed

“Be careful, he might be dangerous,” said another

“Hide your possessions, he might try to steal them,” said another

“Heh, I bet Rainbow Dash can kick his butt, easily,” said Scootaloo

“I can’t believe, a dragon can look like that, I mean, sure, Spike’s a dragon, but he looks so cute and harmless,” said Sweetie Belle

“Urgh! Disgusting, who let him come to our lovely town?” said Filthy Rich

“I know right, one dragon is enough, Spike is ok, but this one, he ruins the whole view,” said Spoiled Rich

“Luckily he seems to be just passing through,” said Diamond Tiara

“Thank God,” said Filthy Rich

“What’s the big deal, aren’t we all s'posed to be used to Dragons? ah mean, Spike’s one of’em, and from what ah’ve seen, they aren’t bad,” said Big Mac

“Not everyone agrees with you, honey, poor Dragon, he looks so sad… I wish I could do something for him, but I don’t know if he’ll accept our help, Ember said that Dragons are proud by nature,” said Sugar Belle

“Well, at least Mac and Sugar are as nice as I remember,” said Spike as he continued to hike up the hill only to stop to look back at Ponyville.

“I’ll miss this town, I lived here for a decade… I’ll miss my friends too, but I prefer to die than to harm them… I won’t let myself do that again,” said Spike with a smile as one last tear fell from his eyes.

He was about to turn around and leave until something caught his attention

“What’s that? A campfire? Nah, the smoke is too strong, and knowing the town, the smoke is coming from… THE APARTMENT COMPLEX!!!” screamed Spike as he dropped his backpack and raced back to town

“Oh, come on, I’m too far away, I won’t make it on time!!!” thought Spike as his wings opened and shot him up into the air

“WOW!!!!” he screamed as he continued to fly straight up going through various clouds before stabilizing himself

“Ah!... Ok… Ok… this isn’t so bad… just, new…” he said as he glided around the clouds for a few seconds

“I just remembered I don’t know how to fly… AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” said Spike as he plummeted towards the ground

He closed his eyes as he neared the ground, only for his instincts to kick in and his wings and tail began to guide him as he flew

“I’m ALIVE!!!!... and I think I’m getting the hang of this… what was I doing?... OH YEAH! THE FIRE!!!!” said Spike as he raced towards the building.

AT THE BUILDING

“HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE STILL INSIDE?!!!” asked Twilight

“I don’t know!” said a resident

“PINKIE, FETCH ME ANYONE WHO CAN USE WATER MAGIC, PRONTO!!!!” Twilight ordered as Pinkie dashed back into town searching for people to help.

“DASH, GET THE WEATHER CONTROL HERE, AND BRING AS MANY RAIN CLOUDS AS YOU CAN!!!” said Twilight

“ON IT!!!!” screamed Dash as she flew away towards Cloudsdale

“Rarity, you and Fluttershy look around for wounded people and administer first aid!!!” said Twilight

“Yes!!” they both said

“And what about us?” asked Sunset Shimmer looking at Applejack

“We wait… if push comes to shove, we're going to have to go in,” said Twilight

“I’m afraid I can’t permit that,” came Celestia’s voice as she and Luna walked up to them

“Princess! You’re still here?” said Twilight

“Well, of course, I couldn’t just leave seeing the fire,” said Celestia with a proud look

“We were at Sugarcube corner, Tia wanted to stuff her face with some fresh cake,” said Luna

This comment angered Celestia so much, you could actually see her veins pop in her forehead and foam coming out of her mouth

“It’s going to be like that huh, Ms. Husband-huger,” said Twilight

“Indeed,” said Luna

“THAT’S NOT IMPORTANT!” said Twilight catching the 2 princesses attention

“Your highness! We have confirmed that there are 5 people still trapped inside, 3 kids and 2 adults,” said a firefighter

“WELL, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, GET THEM OUT!!!” said Twilight

“We can't, the place has been compromised, the entrance has been blocked, the building will collapse any second now!” said the fire chief

“I can’t believe this guy is the fire chief, it seems I might need to make some arrangements,” thought Celestia

“What are we going to do?” asked Twilight

“I don’t know,” said Luna

“Can’t we use magic to get them out?” asked Twilight

“We don’t know where they are, it’ll be pointless unless someone goes in there and finds them, we won’t really do much,” said Celestia

“PLEASE, SAVE MY SON!!!” a woman screamed

Just then they all heard a loud boom and saw a massive figure flying towards them

“What is that?” everyone asked

But as soon as they did, the object flew on top of them, close enough for Twilight, Celestia, Luna, to recognize it

The object then proceeded to position himself to the side, and seconds later, he flew right through the blocked entrance, landing inside the lobby

“ANYONE STILL HERE, CALL OUT!!!!!!!!!” Spike screamed

“Help us!!!” he heard someone call

“WHERE ARE YOU?” asked Spike

“5th floor, room 513!!” came the voice

“I’M ON MY WAY!!” said Spike as he extended his wings and flew up the stairs until he reached the fifth-floor corridor.

Once he landed he saw that the whole corridor was engulfed in flames and it was spreading fast

“ALMOST THERE!!!” Spike screamed as he ran through the flames to reach the door to the apartment, running straight through it in the process, allowing the fire to enter in the process

“WHERE ARE YOU?” he asked

“WE’RE HERE!!!” screamed the man’s voice coming from the bedroom

Spike quickly made his way to the bedroom and saw that it was an adult male, an adult female, and 2 kids, a boy, and a girl

“Anyone missing?” asked Spike

“No, we’re all here and accounted for,” said the woman

“Then hang on tightly,” said Spike as he bearhugged the whole family, picked them up, and jumped out the window with them, landing safely on the ground, near an ambulance

“Thank you, you save us,” said the man

“We owe you our lives,” said the woman

“Just glad your all safe,” said Spike as the paramedics came and took them to be checked

“Good job Spike,” he thought

He was about to walk away when he heard

“MY BABY, PLEASE SAVE HIM!!!!”

Spike turned and saw a woman being held back by firefighters

“There’s another kid in there!!!” he said as he looked back at the building, now completely engulfed in flames

“Where could he be?!!!!” said Spike as he continued to look around the windows until something happened

His eye-sight suddenly darkened, and after he blinked a couple of times, he was able to see different heat sources coming from the building

“I HAVE THERMAL VISION?! THAT IS AWESOME!.. Oh yeah, THE KID!!!!!” Spike said as he began to frantically look around the building for the little kid

“Come on… come on… THERE YOU ARE!!!!” he said as he lunged into the air, flying into the inferno through the window he had just jumped out of

He then proceeded to run through as many obstacles as he could, debris, doors, walls, fire... you name it… until he finally reached the 8th floor of the building, his eyes still fixed on the form of the little kid laying on the ground motionless.

After a few more seconds he finally made it to the location the kid was in, and without thinking it twice, kicked the door down, only to jump onto the kid as the fire entered the room, creating a small explosion.
Spike could feel the fire burning off his hoodie and shirt, as he looked around for an exit, only to realize there was none;

“Fuck,” said Spike

Seconds later, Spike realized something, the temperature was rising a lot, and that’s when his eyes fell on the gas pipes inside the apartment.

“Oh no, It can blow up at any second now… I have to get him out here!’ he thought

Just then he noticed something, the wall right in front of him had been weakened by the fire

“I can make it through there… but what about the kid? The second I stand up, the fire will burn him to a crisp,” Spike said as he looked at his wings “This is going to hurt,”

BACK ON THE GROUND

“What was that?” asked Sunset Shimmer

“It seemed like a… a… monster of sorts,” said the fire chief

“Maybe a demon,” said Applejack

“Sir, 4 of the missing people have been rescued successfully,” said another firefighter

“You’re telling me that someone disobeyed my orders!” said the chief

“No, they say some sort of “Demonic-Angel” saved them,” said the firefighter

“What?” said the fire chief as the top levels of the building exploded

Seconds later, an object flew out of the wall into a free fall, only to open its wings and land safely on the ground in front of everyone.

Spike then looked up and made eye contact with everyone present

Jaws dropped everywhere, without his hoodie, everyone had a clear view of his face

“Is… is that…” said Sunset Shimmer

But Spike ignored the commotion and rushed to an ambulance

“Here’s the last one!” he said as he laid the kid down on the stretcher

“MY SON!! THANK YOU!!!!” said the woman as she hugged Spike and got into the ambulance as it sped away.

Spike then turned to face everyone.

No one said a word, nothing could think of anything to say

“I brought the weather control… and who are you?” said Rainbow Dash as she landed next to each other

“Hello to you too, Dash,” said Spike

The second he said this Rainbow Dash jaw dropped

“SPIKE!!!!” she said

“Yup, it’s me,” said Spike

“How did this happen?” asked Rainbow Dash

“If it’s an explanation you seek, allow me to repeat,” said Zecora coming out of nowhere.

A FEW MINUTES LATER

“So… you’re telling us that…” said Applejack

“Spike hid his real form…” continued Rainbow Dash

“For 10 years…” said Fluttershy

“Because he was afraid of what he would become?” finished Sunset Shimmer

“Yes, that is correct,” said Zecora

“WHY?!!!!!” they all screamed as they turned to face Spike, who had covered himself with a blanked do to his shirt and hoodie turning into ashes.

“Didn’t Zecora just explain why?” said Spike

“Why didn’t you tell us!” said Rarity getting in his face

“Because… the day that I went… psycho, was the day I realized how dangerous I actually was, and I was horrified of the thought of that happening again… that’s why when the seal broke, I decided to follow Princess Celestia’s orders and leave,” said Spike

Everyone then turned to glare at princess Celestia

“I never said you HAD to leave, it was an option though,” Celestia clarified

“But, you told Twilight to see to it that I leave,” said Spike

“OH, HEAVENS, NO!” Celestia exclaimed

“But I heard you,” said Spike

“Actually, it’s true, Princess Celestia didn’t tell me to make you leave, what actually happened was…” said Twilight

HOURS EARLIER AT THE CASTLE

“So, Zecora, about that potion?” said Celestia

“Of course, but may I ask, why do you require of me such a task?” asked Zecora

“Well, I just want Luna to stop her obsession with MY husband,” said Celestia

“WHA…! YOUR HUSBAND WHY THE HELL SHOULD I CARE ABOUT DISCORD?! I’M A LESBIAN!!!” screamed Luna

“Oh please Luna, just because you banged with 1 or 2 guardsmares and your maid doesn’t make you a lesbian,” said Celestia

“I don’t want to hear that from the person that made a “Girls-only orgy” in my bedroom… just admitted Tia, you’re a lesbian too,” said Luna

“Says the woman who sucks MY husband dry while we sleep,” said Celestia

Luna’s face went pale

“Yeah, I know that you have sex with Discord while I sleep… and when he doesn’t wake up you just suck on it,” said Celestia

Luna tried to say something, but she couldn’t find the right words

“Just admitted, you are as Bisexual as I am… and I know, I found your magazines with the hot male models too,” said Celestia

Luna just glared at her as her face turned red, and then stormed out of the front door

“So, Zecora, when can I expect the potion?” asked Celestia

“Wait, you want Luna to stop having sex with Discord? Or with men in general?” asked Twilight

“I want her to stop having sex with Discord without including me, AKA, to stop doing it while we sleep, so…” said Celestia

“It is complex, I need to refresh and obtain the ingredients, it might take up to a few days,” said Zecora

“Well, Twilight can help you,” said Celestia

“I really don’t think it’s the right thing,” Said Twilight only to be glared at by Celestia

“What about Spike?” she asked

“I really don’t know, what he did was extremely stupid and irresponsible, not only did he contained his nature for a prolonged period of time, but, the fact that he did has made his body dangerous, he has no control over it, and I doubt anyone in this land has, he better leave,” Celestia said

“But there must be something else we can do” Twilight said

“There is, but I doubt it’ll help… it’s for the best,” said Celestia as she walked down the stairs of the castle

“I’ll see to it,” Twilight said

“That still sounds like you telling Twilight to kick him out,” said Rarity

“Does it?” asked Celestia

Everyone nodded

“Oh, I didn’t think it was,” said Celestia

“Well maybe if your head wasn’t fixated on Discord’s dick all the time you could actually think properly,” mumbled Luna

“I wish I could linger, but I must head back home to finish some business,” said Zecora

“What type of business?” asked Rainbow Dash

“Private,” said Zecora

BACK AT ZECORA’S HUT

Applebloom was tied up to a table in all fours, blindfolded, as a dildo kept magically fucking her butt.

“Zecora? ah know ah’ve been a bad girl, but can you please take the dildo out of my butt, ah fear ah’m beginning to like it more than when you fuck me silly,” said Applebloom as she began to slobber

“Zecora? Are you there?... Mistress?” Appebloom said

Just then she felt the dildo stop moving, and something poking at her marehood

“Mistress? Please!” Applebloom pleaded

“Here’s your treat, my little pet,” said Zecora as he thrusted her strap on into her marehood

BACK WITH THE GROUP

“So, what do you plan on doing now?” Celestia asked Spike

“Walk to the Dragonlands and start over,” said Spike

After he said this Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie jumped on top of Spike forcing him to the ground

“WE ARE NOT LET YOU LEAVE!!!” the girls screamed

“But I must, it’s not safe for me to remain here,” said Spike

“Actually, I was thinking, back when the seal was working, you used to suppress your… needs, by doing other things right?” asked Celestia

“Yes,” said Spike

“Then why don’t you do the same,” said Celestia

“Do you think it’ll work, your majesty?” asked Spike

“Well, with all of the exercise you must do from now on, yes, it will,” said Celestia

“Exercise? Why would I do that?” asked Spike

“Because, from this day onward, I Princess Celestia, Ruler of Equestria hereby make you an official member of the Wonderbolts Search and Rescue team, congratulations,” said Celestia

“WHAT?!!!!” everyone said

“I spoke to Spitfire, and she was convinced that having Spike in the team would be a great addition, especially for situations like the one we just witnessed,” said Celesia

“Wait, the Wonderbolts aren’t only some sort of airshow attraction?” asked Spike

“No they are a legit military branch,” said Celestia

“I had no idea,” said Spike

“Princess Celestia, although we are happy and thankful for you not forcing Spike to leave, I must ask, are you ok with letting a young drake, who just turned 18 join such a dangerous job?” asked Rarity

“18? Spike is older than all of you,” said Celestia

‘WHAT!!!!!” everyone but Twilight said

“It’s true, Spike is actually 28… when I hatched him his egg was already a couple of years old,” said Twilight

The girls then turned to look at Spike

“Yup, it’s true,” said Spike

“This changes EVERYTHING!!!” the girls said with different intentions on their minds.
