The Dragon Ninja
Chapter 7
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSpike watched as Twilight entered the apartment building. As he watched, he only thought to himself more why she was at his apartment.
Well, guess I should give her a little surprise." Spike said to himself
He slowly jumped and climbed from window to window to his apartment and eventually witnessed Twilight near his door.
"Here goes." Spike said
(In the apartment building)
Twilight knocked on the door. But there was no answer.
"Hello? Spike are you there?"
The door creaked open slowly and Twilight entered the apartment. His apartment wasn't so bad. It had the basic necessities. A kitchen, bathroom, 2 bedrooms and a living room. As she looked, she said again.
"Spike? Where are you?"
As she looked, a shuriken nearly hit her and hit the wall.
SHIKT!
Twilight gasped and turned and saw Spike was behind her. She only said with dismay.
"You could've killed me!"
Spike, with a look of disgust, said "So? You did it to me a bunch of times."
Twilight only sighed and said "Look, I'm not here to fight, I'm here to apologize."
"No." Spike quickly replied.
"Spike...please!...just hear me out! For old times sake." Twilight tried to say
"And as I said, your no family of mine. I stopped being your family when I said your dead to me." Spike coldly refused.
"Spike, I just want things to be like old times sake! I just want your forgiveness!" Twilight said, with slight tears
Spike, however said "Forgiveness is earned Princess. And you never even followed your lessons you taught. Compassion, love, mercy. You did the opposite of those things to me all my life."
Twilight winced at his words, and Spike pulled out his sword from it's sheath.
"Spike, dont!" Twilight tried to reason.
"Get out! Before I show you what no mercy really means. I already showed you mercy back at your stupid offer. I'm not showing it again." Spike threatened
Twilight only looked and saw the hate in his eyes. With a silent nod, she left his apartment and closed the door on her way out.
Spike only sat on the couch and cried to himself silently.
(The next day)
As Spike was heading to Canterlot High, he noticed that the students once again began to fawn over him. He only ignored them and proceeded inside the building. As he walked, he refused to acknowledge them and went to his locker.
Inside were a bunch of fan letters, love notes and panties. Spike however, only gave a look of disgust and threw them all in a trash bin. He only continued to his locker. As he walked, he felt an someone was coming, he turned around and saw it was Flash.
"What do you want?" Spike asked
"You know exactly what I want you little FUCK!" Flash accused
"It's not my fault your dick is small in a fight." Spike commented.
"What was that?!" Flash said angrily
"I asked the principals to give you some leniency and you should be grateful. Ranks are earned, not given." Spike replied
"Wait. Why would you do that?" Flash said with a puzzled look.
"Because unlike you, I was trained to know the meaning of honor, respect and balance. It's time you learn it soon....if possible." Spike replied in disgust.
Flash only gave a look as Spike began to leave his locker and went to class.
(In class)
Spike went to his class and removed his hood and mask. He pulled out his textbook and began to work. As he did, the students gave him looks of admiration.
The teacher, Ms. Cheerilee, came in and said
"Everyone, settle down!"
The class began to quiet down and sit in their desks. As Spike looked at the teacher, she only said
"Now class, can anyone tell me what the three races of equines are and what they are known for?"
"They are Pegasi, Unicorns and Earth ponies. Pegasi have wings they use to not only fly and travel but also deal with the weather and clouds. Unicorns have horns and magic which they use to create or make spells such as levitation and telekinesis. Earth ponies have increased strength and endurance which they use to increase physical strength and mental resilience." Spike said
The class gave looks at Spike for his answer and Cherilee said with a surprised smile.
"That is correct Mr. Drake."
Spike nodded and continued to work. As he did, The Rainbooms, who happened to be behind him gave looks of surprise at his answer.
"Dude! That was fast!" Rainbow Dash said surprised, Spike didn't answer.
"How did you ever know that?" Rarity asked curiously.
Spike still did not speak, he only kept working. Twilight, who happened to be with them tried to talk to him
"Spike, I just want to-MMMMPH?!"
As she spoke, Spike used his newfound cryomancy and from his finger, shot a blast of ice at her mouth, sealing it in cold ice, leaving her and the other Rainbooms shocked.
As Spike worked, he threw a little note at her desk. It said simply
"Leave me alone. I don't like any of you. "
(At Lunch)
Spike was eating lunch in the cafeteria and as he did, the PA system said
"Spike Drake, please report to the podcast room. I repeat, Spike Drake, please report to the podcast room."
Spike heard the PA and simply left the cafeteria.
(In Podcast Room)
Spike walked through the hallways and eventually, he reached the room. Entering, he saw a recording studio and microphones.
Inside was a woman that Spike had not recognized, he gave a closer look at her and saw it was none other then Principal Celestia along with the one and only Superintendent Discord.
"Principal Celestia? What are you doing in here? and Who is that?" Spike asked
"Well, Spike, I figured since you helped our school, the Superintendent would want to interview you on us and how we should improve CHS." Celestia said
"Fine." Spike said and sat down next to them. Discord then pressed some buttons and said on the mic to the PA.
"Good morning CHS! Today we are having a very special day today! Our special guest is none other then the savior of this school! You know him, you love him. Spike the Dragon!"
Over the intercom, cheers were heard and Spike could hear it coming from the other rooms in the class halls.
"So Spike, how has life been for you?" Discord asked
"The usual." Spike said simply
"Do you have any thoughts on the fight and your accomplishment?" Discord asked
Spike simply replied "No, only the safety of the school students and teachers."
This made the CHS students smile with happiness as Discord asked
"Do you have any interest in anyone?"
"Nope." Spike answered
"Have you considered joining any groups of heroes such as The Rainbooms or forming your own?" Discord asked
"Never and I don't think I would join a group of racist, hypocritical liars of false bravado." Spike said with disappointment.
This statement shocked the students, even the Rainbooms as Spike continued.
"In fact, I idolized them, loved them and cared about one particular member. Yet they along with pretty much both student and teacher alike treated me like I was nothing. I had another chance and nobody is going to ruin it."
This left the whole CHS staff and student body silent at how they treated Spike, even the Rainbooms gave looks of regret and guilt, as they received some glares of disapproval by some students and teachers.
"Not only that, but a few teachers and students sent me death threats and assaulted me regularly." Spike added
This only made the teachers, notable Mr. Cranky Doodle and Mrs. Harshwhinny, give looks of fear and hide themselves by their desks.
"Anything else?" Spike asked
"Yes. Are you planning to stay at CHS or join another school?" Discord asked
"....I haven't decided yet, but I'll let you know." Spike said
"Ok then. Well, until next time everybody!" Discord said as the PA cut off. Spike then left the room silently and walked away as the bell rang.
(At the Lin Kuei Temple)
Spike was currently holding bowls of water on his head, arms and legs. As he did, his eyes were closed and he remained calm. A bo-staff hit him in the chest, but he remained still.
The attacker was the Grandmaster, who continued to hit Spike with his staff, but he remained unfazed. As Sub-Zero swung the staff to the bowl on Spike's head. The dragon teen dodged and managed to balance the bowl on his head. The young warrior and the Grandmaster continued to train for the next hour.
"Very good dragon warrior." Sub-Zero acknowledged.
"Thank you master." Spike said, bowing with respect, which Sub-Zero returned
(With the Rainbooms)
In the music room of Canterlot High, it was after school hours and Twilight was cleaning her face with a paper towel after she removed the ice Spike shot at her mouth. As she did, she went to another room and saw the rest of the girls but Rarity, along with Starlight Glimmer
"Wow, I guess we really screwed up huh?" Rainbow Dash said
"Yer right Dash, we treated him like a dog on a leash all these years." Applejack said
Rarity eventually came in and said to the girls with a tone of hurry and surprise.
"Um, girls, you may want to see this." Rarity said with wide eyes.
"Rarity, what's the matter?" Fluttershy said concerned
"Follow me, you must see this." Rarity said again.
The girls followed Rarity and went to the roof, where they saw none other then Spike balancing on the roof, with the same stance the Lin Kuei warrior did at the temple.
"Spike?!" The girls said surprised.
Spike, however remained silent and calm.
"What are you doing here?" Twilight asked
Spike, once again ignored them.
"Spikey! Why are you here! Ooh! Did you forgive us and want to have a party!?" Pinkie said excited
Spike did not answer again, how only balanced and remained calm.
Applejack went over to him and saw his eyes were focusing on the ground. She simply waved her hand at him and said
"Er, Spike? Ya'll ok?"
The dragon warrior still didn't acknowledge their presence.
"Dude, we're talking to you!" Rainbow Dash said annoyed.
She was about to touch his shoulder, but the moment she did, he grabbed her hand without looking back and began to put pressure.
"OWOWOWOW! LET GO!" Rainbow Dash said in pain, nearly shedding some tears.
Spike complied and threw her at the other girls.
"What's your deal dude?!" Rainbow Dash said in anger
"Bakas (idiots)" Spike insulted the girls
"What did he say?" Fluttershy asked.
Sunset, using her magic to translate what he said and gasped saying "Hey! We're not idiots!"
"That's it!" Starlight said and blasted magic at Spike.
The dragon warrior reacted quickly and turned around, using his cryomancy to freeze the blast in his hands and redirected the blast, which froze Starlight solid.
"STARLIGHT!" The girls said in shock before getting ready to fight Spike, who readied himself.
