It was time, the day of the dual had come, as Spike was training, he greatly improved his skill and abilities to be more physically fit and strong. As he was training with the Grandmasters, Sub-Zero and Scorpion stopped attacking and bowed, with Spike doing the same.

"You have done well, young Spike." Sub-Zero said

"Your skill has been improving." Scorpion said

"Thank you, Grandmasters. I must head back to CHS and save it." Spike said with a bow.

"That is for the best, we have matters of our own to handle." Sub-Zero said

"I shall take you back to your school. Be careful." Scorpion said.

Scorpion held Spike's hand and teleported them in a fiery wave of hellfire.

(Back at Canterlot City)

Spike was transported to the outside of his apartment and Scorpion said

"Remember, your power is not about hatred and rage, it follows your determination and inner fire."

Spike nodded with a look of determination. He jumped on the roof of the apartment and parkoured from the roofs to reach the school.

Spike was able to reach Canterlot High and reached the rooftop. He witnessed the Crystal Prep school readying up to face Canterlot.

Watching the scene, Spike only glared at the fight that would come. Principal Cinch had came and said to the now approaching CHS students and Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna.

"Well Celestia, it's been awhile."

"Indeed Abacus." Celestia said

"Your Champion hasn't arrived yet, I feel that you must forfeit your reputation." Cinch taunted.

As the students whispered in confusion and worry, Spike only gave a look and said in his thoughts.

"Where is the Champion?"

He then felt wind chill his skin and turned his eyes to the right. He saw Flash Sentry leaving his car and going to arena.

"Let's see how this goes." Spike said at the approaching Pegasus.

"You wanted me?" Flash asked in a cocky tone.

"Well, it's about time you show up Flash." Vice-Principal Luna said

"So, who's my opponent?" Flash asked

"Why don't you see for yourself." Cinch said and moved aside.

The opponent Flash was to face were 3 muscular boys with ripped shirts and jeans.

"Rover, Fido, Spot. You know what to do." Cinch said

"Yes ma'me" Rover said

"Ready?" Celestia said.

The opponents nodded and Rover came first to make it fair for Flash. The two readied themselves to fight.

"FIGHT!" Cinch said

The two charged and began to fight with blows to one another which were either countered or blocked. Flash flew in the sky and charged with a kick, hitting Rover in the jaw.

"OW!" Rover said, but he managed to get back up.

As he did, he uppercutted Flash in the chin and started to throttle him. Flash however, broke free with a elbow to Rover's face.

The fight had progressed, yet Flash was slowly getting more tired. As he fought back, Twilight shouted

"Come on Flash!"

Flash desperately tried to fight more, but Rover had too much persistence. As they fought, Rover kneed Flash and punched him to the ground

Spike only looked and saw the desperation of the students of CHS at Flash's beaten state. With an silent nod, he jumped and parkoured his way to the ground and landed near the arena.

"Well Celestia, looks like you're champion isn't getting up. Your 10 seconds are going down."

"10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2...." The students counted, until an familiar voice said

"STOP!"

The students of both schools turned and saw the masked Spike approach.

"I will fight for my school's honor." Spike said

The students were confused upon seeing the masked newcomer.

"Who is that?" An female student asked

"Is that an student from our classes?" One teacher asked

"What is he wearing?" A male student asked.

"So stranger, you want to defend this low rate school?" Cinch asked

"Says an old second rate woman that cheats her school to victory with illegal or unlawful methods?" Spike asked.

This comeback made the students of both schools laugh or snicker in amusement while Cinch only gave a look of dismay and said.

"Smart one huh? You won't laugh once you meet my Champions."

She moved back and the moment she did, The 3 muscular teenage boys came in and said loudly

"WE"RE THE DIAMOND DOGS, THE CHAMPIONS OF CRYSTAL PREP!!!! LET'S SEE WHAT YOU GOT LIZARD!!!!!" Rover said

Spike did not speak and only readied himself, his hands emitted fiery and icy auras.

"If we win, your male students will be our warriors and the females will be used as breeding stock." Cinch said

This statement shocked the students, while Vice Principal Luna asked

"And if we win?"

"That's your decision to make." Cinch replied

As the fighters got ready, Principal Celestia said

"Ready?"

Cinch then shouted "FIGHT!"

The Diamond Dogs charged at Spike, who quickly jump kicked Fido and Spot, while Rover tried to punch Spike, but he dodged constantly. As he attacked, the other two began to recover, Spike noticed and grabbed Rover's arm and threw him into the other two Diamond Dogs.

"OOF!" Rover said knocking the other two down.

Spike then made a few hand gestures and froze the three solid with his cryomancy.

"Who is that guy?" Sunset asked.

He then flared his hands and then removed his mask and his face shocked the audience.

He breathed a heavy blow of fire at their frozen forms. The blast melted the ice, but left them both alive, yet cold and wet. The audience was surprised at his newfound abilities.

"Spike?!?!" Principal Celestia said.

The words of Celestia shocked the CHS students.

"That's the no-magic runt?!" A male student said

"What happened to him?!" A teacher asked

"How did he get so ripped?!?!" An female student said

Even the Rainbooms were shocked upon seeing the now powerful dragon's face and body.

"WE WILL NOT LOSE TO A LIZARD LIKE YOU!!!" Rover shouted

Spike, however dashed in lightning speed thar rivaled even Rainbow Dash and used his sword to cut his body in all around the chest and back and seriously slashed the smaller teen's throat while using his rope spear to strangle the other teen to near-death. The slashes were so strong, their clothes were ripped and nearly exposed their groins.

"Wait! Please! You win!" Rover said on his knees, but Spike grabbed him by the hair

"Live or Die man?" Spike asked

"LIVE!! LIVE!!!! PLEASE!!!!" Rover begged.

Spike only gave a frown and readied a blow. The CHS students backed away at what Spike would do. Some even said

"I can't look dude!"

"He's had enough!"

"Do it!"

"Finish him!"

Spike threw a punch but stopped near his nose, instead his fingers gave a cold aura and he let him go by dropping his head on the ground.

Spike then said to the other two "You two want more?"

They fearfully shook their heads no and backed away.

Rover was however angry at his pride being broken and charged, saying.

"I WILL NOT LOSE TO YOU, YOU LITTLE-"

Spike, sensing his movement, countered with a kick and punches to his face and stomach.

FINISH HIM!

Spike readied his rope spear at the stunned Diamond dog and threw it. It landed and impaled him directly in his face.

"ROVER!" The other two said in horror.

Spike, with a heavy push, pulled his head off and grabbed it in his hand, saying

"Flawless Victory!"

FATALITY!

The students of CHS were surprised and cheered while the Crystal Prep students were shocked to see their champion defeated.

Spike began to walk away silently, until the two Principals stopped him.

"Spike, wait!" Celestia interrupted him.

"What is it?" Spike replied.

"We have to update your rank and power level." Luna said.

"You don't have to-" Spike said, but he was cut off.

"Yes we do! Come with us." Celestia said as she and Luna escorted Spike to the CHS office.

As they left, the Rainbooms were especially as shocked and surprised at the victory Spike had done, he easily not only defeated the Champions of Crystal Prep, but killed one effortlessly and easily. Rarity was even more focused on how his appearance had changed.

In the office, Spike was with the principal's, they both looked at him as he put his mask back on.

"Spike, may I ask why you chose to fight for Canterlot High's honor?" Principal Celestia said.

Spike did not answer, he simply asked "How is Flash?"

"He is recovering, we managed to get him to the infirmary. However, he is still being punished."

"Why?" Spike asked

"He refused to accept the responsibility that it was a Champion vs Champion match. Therefore, we stripped him of his rank." Luna said

"Alright. But please, give him a chance." Spike said

"...Very well, he will remain in the school and be on reserves UNDER OBSERVATION. But we are stripping him of his rank and privileges and still removing him from the other teams. Many have demanded he be punished for his reckless actions. Even Superintendent Discord was furious and demanded either expulsion or rank removal. I'm sorry Spike, but that's the best we can give to him." Celestia said in reply.

"Ok, at least it's a bit lenient." Spike said

"Now, place your hand on the mirror." Celestia said, motioning to a mirror in front of her.

Spike did so and placed his hand on the mirror. The moment he did, the school shook, and it surprised both.

"Spike, that's enough!" Celestia said

Spike backed away from the mirror and the shaking stopped, Celestia and Luna both looked at the mirror and were shocked by the number.

"Your number is 500,000. That's enough to get an S+ rank!" Celestia said

"You also have an new ability that works as a enhancement to it. It's called Elemental Dragon." Luna added.

"Cool. Is there anything else?"

"No, but we want to tell you we are very proud of you." Luna said

Spike nodded and left the office. As he did, he went outside and sat near the statue near the school. He began to meditate and calm his mind.

"Hey!" A familiar voice said

Spike opened his eyes and turned his back. He looked and saw Soarin and Cheese Sandwich coming over to him

"You two?" Spike asked.

"We realize what dicks we've been, we're here to apologize." Soarin said

"Yeah, Caramel was right, Flash was a complete asshole. We should have walked away like he did." Cheese further added, disappointed in himself.

"I forgive you, but I can't forget what you did." Spike said

"I guess that's fair. Flash doesn't deserve it though." Soarin agreed

"I asked them to go easy on him." Spike said

"WHAT?!" Cheese and Soarin both said

"Dude, he treated you like shit for years, how can you do that?!" Cheese asked

"Because, He may be an idiot, but at least he has some honor and balls to fight back." Spike said

The two nodded as Soarin said "We should go inside now."

"Why? The fights over and we have no class at this time." Spike said confused

"Yeah, but they look like their getting hot from you." Soarin said pointing behind Spike

Spike turned and saw the Dazzlings give flirtatious looks at him. Adagio blew a kiss at him, Aria turned around and smacked her round butt, making it jiggle while Sonata pushed her arms under her cleavage, making appear as if her rack ahad grown.

Spike however, rememebered them all too well. and gave a look of mixed disgust and annoyance and said to the two stallions.

"Lead the way."

They did so and went inside the school, unaware Spike's life would change not just in CHS, but in Canterlot City itself.
