Spike’s Bizarre Adventure
Chapter-4 DragonHeart
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThose who knew Prince Blueblood personally would tell you he was an arrogant self entitled egomaniac with his head up his own flank, those individuals where normally right, very few could stomach hanging around the man for more then a few minutes without developing the desire to try and cave his face in out of all the nobles in Canterlot Blueblood was perhaps the most insufferable.
And yet despite his various flaws the man had a deep love of new experiences and new things in general, so when he discovered the arrow’s abilities he was elated to test out what it could do consequences be damned.
Even if said consequence was getting his face burned by an irate dragon man who was now dead set on beating him within an inch of his life.
“You…you speak with such conviction.”Blueblood groaned while still gripping his burned face in pain glaring at Spike who stood over him”That is one thing i always admired about your kind, always have such an intense passion within you that can even outshine your own greed.”he let out a chuckle despite the pain he was in as he got up”But sadly you’re outmatched compared to me you and your…DragonHeart was it?”he questioned but received now verbal answer.
“Stay down asshole!”Spike shouted before he rushed in his stand at his side as both reared their fists back to take a swing at the man, however this attack was easily telegraphed allowing Blueblood to avoid it and deliver a sucker punch to the boy knocking him back.
“I’ve had far more experience then you, I’ll admit you got me good with that fire blast and sucker punch, which seriously damaged my face.”he growled horn lighting up”It’s gonna cost a fortune in reconstructive surgery to fix my skin and hair follicles you damaged with your fire.”he added before rearing his hand back his fist lighting up with the same magical aura form his horn”Hurdy Gurdy Man.”he spoke his stand’s name and the being responded letting out a unsettling cackle before firing out a blast of the fluid like substance from its right shoulder/nozzle, however rather then fire it at spike the substance was drawn to BloodBloods now magic infused hand coating it till his entire fist was completely covered with the substance.
Spike narrowed his eyes at this and swung his tail to trip the man up, however BlueBlood jumped back to avoid the swipe allowing Spike to scramble to his feet.
“I don’t think it’s gonna feel to good if he hits us with that.”Spike’s stand spoke before turning to his user”By the way, thanks for the name DragonHeart, I like it.”the stand now identified as DragonHeart thanked its user before turning back to face their opponent.
“Thank me after we kick this guys ass.”Spike grunted before the two charged in both intending to rush BlueBlood.
In response to this the burned man shook his head”That is an ill advised move.”he stated before calmly swinging his arm slinging out a large glob of the substance that remained attached to his hand acting like a tendril barreling right at Spike.
Spike went wide eyed before he leaned back to avoid the attack only to have it brush against his snout, instantly a burning sensation spread across his face making Spike grip his face in pain being momentarily stunned before Blueblood swung his leg up kicking the dragon in the gut and knocking him back.
“You don’t even know what your ability is.”BlueBlood said the pink slime retracting back to his hand”Do you even know how much hard work and practice it took me to realize I could combine my Hurdy Gurdy Man’s power with my own magic just to do this?”Blueblood went on while DragonHeart helped Spike back to his feat”while I am amazed to see your stand is sentient that does not mean I expect it to be any real threat to me.”Blueblood scoffed before picking up the arrow and twirled it between his fingers”You know maybe you need a little more incentive.”he smirked before flicking his wrist down making the glob of pink slime trail down to the ground which he then promptly held in place with his foot”Let’s see if any of your friends are worthy shall we?”he grinned before he placed the arrow against the thin trail of slime and pulled it back like a makeshift bow taking aim at the downed form of Snails before letting the arrow fly.
Spike could feel his blood run cold at this sight and without hesitation rushed forward to intercept the projectile but it looked like he wouldn’t reach it in time as athletic as he was it was simply impossible for him to move into the flight path of an arrow at point blank range in such a short amount of time.
“No! I can’t let that thing hit him!”Spike thought in a panic things seemed to have slowed down around him in his mind”For the love of Faust if there’s any way I can stop that thing let it happen!”he thought in panic as his own stand aura flared up.
A blur rushed had suddenly rushed past Spike, he only caught sight of it out of his peripheral vision before it moved in front of him.
“ I gotcha!”DragonHeart shouted as he stood between the arrow and Snails and instantly snatched the arrow with a well timed catch.
“Yes!”Spike grinned relief overcoming him seeing he had saved his friend”Alright now get rid of that damn thing!”he told his stand.
“No! Don’t do anything rash!”Blueblood said holding up a hand”That arrow is ancient it’s a valuable artifact! you’d have to be incredibly reckless and idiotic to just willingly destroy an ancient relic!”he said however DragonHeart let out a low chuckle at this.
“Oh I’m not gonna destroy it.”The stand told him with a low chuckle before he held the arrow up high above his head.
A look of relief came over Blueblood’s face while Spike looked shocked”Oh thank god, it would seem your stand is rather disobedient thankfully-“he began before DragonHeart spoke up again.
“Im gonna eat it!”DragonHeart loudly proclaimed with a laugh before opening his mouth wide long forked tongue hanging out”ITADAKIMASU!!”he bellowed out with a laugh and before the stunned Blueblood and Spike it devoured the arrow with a few bites loudly chewing for a few seconds before swallowing.
Blueblood had an expression that could only be described as gobsmacked at this, jaw hanging open eyes wide he slowly raised a finger to point at the stand before speaking voice barely above a whisper”T-that…was an ancient artifact..that could have very well predated all of equestrian history…with powers I had not fully studied yet and for all we know was worth a fortune…”he went silent before he shouted anger exploding”WHAT THE FLYING FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!”he demanded.
Spike blinked staring at his stand before he turned glancing at Blueblood who was now seething with rage…and he laughed, Spike laughed hard gripping his stomach despite the dire situation he couldn’t stop himself from letting out a big belly laugh.
“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU LAUGHING AT THE STAND ATE THE GOD DAMNED ARROW YOU BRAT!”Blueblood shrieked glaring at the dragon, he looked like he was about to have an aneurism.
“That’s exactly why I’m laughing, seeing you freak the fuck out seeing that high and mighty look on your face get washed-not burned away~.”Spike said flashing a cocky grin before giving his stand a thumbs up”Nice work.”he laughed.
“THIS IS NOT A LAUGHING MATTER!”BlueBlood shouted in rage before he swung his arm lobbing the pink magic infused tendril at the laughing drake.
“Watch out!”DragonHeart cried jumping at its user and tackling him out of the way.
“I don’t know what I was thinking trying to convince you to join me!”Blueblood snarled as he continued to strike the two with his makeshift weapon but they kept dodging at every turn”I should have expected one of your kind to have such a crude and disguising stand!”he spat out before retracting his arm”Hurdy Gurdy Man no more holding back! fire!”he shouted.
The stand let out a low groan before lifting up its two bulbous shoulders pointing its dispensers at the two before it began to rapidly shoot out its pink liquid rapidly.
“Oh Shit!”Spike and his stand cried together before they jumped to the side but they where not so lucky this time as a good but of the projectiles hit the dragon boy’s legs and tail.
A burning sensation ran its way up Spikes lower extremities like he had just run ten smiles his leg muscles practically screamed at him to stop as he bit his lower lip to ignore the pain being simulated to him but it was so intense that it forced Spike to his knees his legs felt like jelly.
“D-dammit!”Spike hissed just as Blueblood began to approach him scowling The Whole time with his face still heavily burned yet despite it Spike couldn’t help himself and cracked a grin”So this the part where you make some quip before turning into Freddy Kruger?”he snorted which only served to anger Blueblood more”Oh what you getting mad rich boy? Come at me then my stand will kick your ass!”Spike grinned however Blueblood surprisingly let out a chuckle.
“Uh kid..”DragonHeart’s voice alerted him causing Spike to turn his head he saw his stand slumped on the ground just like him but his legs where devoid of any of the substance that had hit Spike.
“I should have mentioned brat”Blueblood said before he grabbed Spike by the collar of his jacket”Damage between a stand and its user is shared.”he grinned before rearing his fist back that was still coated with the pink substance secreted by his own stand”Here let me show you!”he shouted.
With that Blueblood began to repeatedly strike spike in the face while still maintaining his hold on the boy all the whole DragonHeart began to spasm and convulse as if the hits where also striking him as well.
“This is what happens, when you commoners get to big for your britches and don’t show respect where it’s deserved you stupid drake!”Blueblodd growled but kept his sick grin on his face between each strike to the boy who’s face now had a good few bruises and cuts while also having clumps of the pink fluid now stuck to his face.
Spike couldn’t speak the sheer pain he was feeling was indescribable, hell it wasint just pain he felt a wave of nausea wash over him in addition to the pain he tried to speak but just wound up hacking up a bit of bile mixed with blood that hit the unicorn in the chest.
Bluebloods grin vanished and he recoiled in sheer disgust”OH YOU VILE CUR!”he shouted looking at his suit now stained”THATS NEVER GONNA COME OUT THATS IT IM DONE DEALING WITH YOU!”the man seethed rearing his fist back one last time before launching it aiming to cave the boys skull in with this final strike.
DragonHeart looked up at this, his fingers digging into the dirt despite the shared pain he could feel his users rage reach a boiling point this prick Blueblood was as vile as nobles came and was an even bigger hypocrite.
“The only way to deal with a prick…is with an even BIGGER prick!”the stand shouted before Spike’s stand aura flared up just as Blueblood’s fist made contact with the boy’s skull and a loud squelching sound came out.
The whole area became dead silent as Blueblood’s enraged expression began to change, scowl becoming a whimper, eyes widening in pain and a shrill cry echoed from the unicorns mouth before he pulled his hand back gripping it in pain at the wrist and to Spikes shock the man’s hand had been cut/split down between the knuckles of his middle and ring ringers.
“FUCK YOU BASTARD WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO!?”Blueblood cried out voice shrill and lacking any of the previous intimidation it once had as he fell to his knees.
Spike was honestly just as confused, to him it seemed as if Blueblood’s hand had just been damaged from punching his forehead.
“The fuck?”Spike said before he reached up slowly and he felt it, there was a growth protruding out of his skull it felt hard and almost metallic.
“T-THE ARROW!”Blueblood suddenly cried pointing at Spike”WHAT THE FUCK IS IT DOING ON YOUR HEAD?!”he demanded
It was true, sprouting out from the base of the boy’s forehead was the arrowhead but the back portion of it appeared to be completely fused with the scales of his head.
While Spike couldn’t exactly see it he could tell it was there and he was anything but unsurprised.
“What the hell?”Spike asked in shock before a chuckle gained his and the still panicking Blueblood’s attention.
“This is my ability.”DragonHeart stated before finally managing to get back to his feet”I can consume anything with no ill effect and then apply it to me or my users body in some way, you are what you eat and you eat what you are!”the stand told them letting out yet another laugh.
Blueblood’s expression conveyed shock mixed with pain, he honestly had no idea how to respond to such a statement, so he decided to let his actions speak for him.
“HURDY GURDY MAN!”Blueblood shouted and once again his stand began to fire a volley of its slime at them.
Spike was on his feat again and dashed to the side intending to lead the line of fire away from his friends”Come and get me you burn ward bound freak!”he taunted the unicorn who in turn had his stand increase the rate of fire on him”Anything else I should know about your ability?”Spike asked DragonHeart who rematerialized besides him while he ran.
The stand simply chuckled at this”Oh there are a few things, for one what I integrate into your body you can change how it’s applied Ya just gotta focus kid!”the stand told him.
“That’s a little vague think you can elaborate a little more?”Spike asked before he made a sharp turn with Blueblood not letting up on his attempts to gun him down.
“HOLD STILL DAMMIT!”Blueblood growled before his horn lit up glowing even brighter before he slammed his hoof down hard onto the ground.
A magical shockwave erupted from the spot Blueblood stomped upturning the ground in a straight line barreling right at Spike and the upturned earth was growing in size as it neared closer.
“No time don’t think just do it!”DragonHeart shouted just as the massive mound of dirt and rock created from Blueblood’s magic got to close for Spike’s liking.
“Shit fine!”Spike shouted and swung his arm closing his eyes trying to focus to make something happen to defend himself.
For a split second a tingling sensation could be felt on Spike’s head before it vanished and moved down his neck and shoulder and shot across his arm.
The blow of rock and dirt never came much to Spike’s surprise as he opened his eyes he noticed the pillar of earth had been cut in twain and stoped in its tracks, by what Spike soon found out.
The arrowhead had migrated to his arm protruding out from the upper part of his arm/wrist and had elongated to an extent that it more resembled the blade of a sword rather than the head of an arrow.
“Are you kidding me that stopped my attack!? That’s the strongest attack spell I know!”Blueblood shouted the normally composed prince was now a sight to see face heavily burned mane singed and hand bloody and split down the middle and his expression suggested he was about two seconds away from a royal temper tantrum.
Spikes shock morphed into a confident look”Really that’s your best spell? dude my sister could do spells like that by the time she was in middle school.”he taunted mockingly swinging his now weaponized arm”if that little dirt mound of yours could be cut in half by a stretched out arrow head like this then that says a lot about you as a unicorn.”Spike continued to goad Blueblood”On top of that you’ve had your stand longer then me right?, and yet I’m kicking your ass six ways to Sunday I burned your face, wrecked your suit, fucked up your hand.”Spike listed off while Blueblood’s face continued to grow redder and redder with rage”I bet the amount it will cost to fix all that up is gonna put a major dent in your mommy and daddies credit card won’t it? or maybe you could dip into your trust fu-“Spike’s continued attempts to insult Blueblood where cut short as the man decided he had enough.
“I’LL FUCKING MURDER YOU!”Blueblood roared behind him Hurdy Gurdy Man lifted up his dispensers letting out a drawn out groan as the pink fluid inside its shoulders turned a vibrant red and began to bubble”BURN YOU WORTHLESS LIZARD LETS SEE HOW YOU LIKE BEING BATHED IN SIMULATED MAGMA!”Blueblood shouted his voice hoarse as his stand fired out a wave of its fluid at high velocity.
Spike didn’t have time to dodge all he could do was look up at the oncoming wave of the substance and closed his eyes.
“God I hope this works.”Spike thought to himself before the wave crashed down on him and DragonHeart covering them in the red fluid till no trace of either could be seen.
Blueblood didn’t say anything he just continued to allow his stand to fire out the gel not stopping for a solid minute before finally a sputtering sound was heard as that indicated his stand had fired all its fluid.
“Hah…Hah…finally…I did it I killed that fucker!”Blueblood laughed rearing his head back”I had to use up all of Hurdy Gurdy Man’s fluid so I’ll be out till it refills but it was worth it!”he laughed”I may have lost the arrow but I’m sure I can retrieve it later..first I have a few other pests to deal with.”he chuckled to himself before he turned to face the trio of still down unicorns”my now my initial attack them may have worn off but that pain will keep them down for a while…long enough for me to-“he began before he was cut off by a voice.
“Are you seriously talking to yourself dude? That’s totally creepy you know that right?”a voice said and Blueblood felt his blood run cold before he slowly turned to the bubbling mass of his stands gel and to his shock and horror Spike sat atop it cross legged with a bored look on his face while DragonHeart was kneeled down besides him stuffing its face with his gel.
“B-but how?!”Blueblood demanded in panic taking an apprehensive step back”I had my stand simulate molten rock! You should be dead!”he pointed at the dragon looking lost.
“…Man your dumb you nobles don’t know Jack shit about us dragons.”Spike stated as he calmly stood up”Dragons are immune to the effects of lava, hell we bath in the stuff so all you really did was simulate a nice bath for me.”Spike grinned”I figured if I got you mad you’d blow your top and try to do something like this.”he chuckled before his attention was brought to a slurping sound as he noticed DragonHeart had slurped up the last of the gel”Ya done?”he asked and in response DragonHeart gave a thumbs up”Alright then.”he said before cracking his neck”Now…I think it’s time I payed you back in full…”Spike said as his stand aura flared up while he adjusted his hat to cover his eyes with its visor.
ゴゴゴゴ!!!
“FOR EVERYTHING YOU’VE DONE!”Spike shouted his stand jumping forward and rearing his head back.
Blueblood only had enough time to take another step back before DragonHeart spewed out the gel it had consumed the bubbling liquid soaring across the air and returning to its point of origin.
Blueblood fully expected that the gel wouldn’t hurt him given that it was his own ability…he was proven wrong.
The high pitched scream of agony that came out of the unicorn makes mouth echoed across the park as he felt the searing pain of his flesh being burned by his own ability, while no actual damage appeared on his body or c,ot he’s he could feel it the sensation of molten rock on his body it was indescribable, the force in which DragonHeart was blasting out the slime had wound up pinning Blueblood against a tree fully unable to fight back or escape this situation.
“It…it hurts! i can’t even concentrate enough to use my magic oh god make it stop!”Blueblood thought every thought in his head was focused on the sever pain he was experiencing he couldn’t help but wonder if this was a karma retribution to his earlier actions the last few days, wether if it was or wasn’t did not matter anymore as after a few more seconds more of his torment the spray of gel had stopped and Blueblood had finally slipped unconscious his senses having been overloaded due to the onslaught of pain.
Once he witnessed Blueblood go down Spike allowed himself a sigh of relief before falling to his knees his eyes wandering over to the downed forms of his sister and two friends.
“ Whew what a rush! We came we saw we kicked ass!”DragonHeart laughed preforming a fist pump while wiping some of the excess gel from his maw before turning to his user” Gimme five kid!”he laughed holding up his hand but was left hanging.
“He said he had associates in C.U…”Spike said after a moment his eyes trailing back over to the downed form of Blueblood”…This isn’t over…not by a long shot.”he stated before standing up his expression becoming more serious”Our work ain’t done yet.”he growled.
-
“Nnnngh”Twilight murmured eyes slowly opening as she stirred awake”My head what hit-SPIKE!”instantly the memories of what had happened flooded into her head as Twilight began to frantically look around.
She was still in the park which looked like a tornado had torn through it, the ground was torn up in several areas and a few trees where broken, however in her sweep of the area she took notice that she was propped up on one of the metal picnic tables in the park with Snips and Snails by her side both still out cold.
“You’re finally awake sis? That’s good.”a voice said behind her making her whirl around to see her brother calmly sitting on the other side of the table a calm look on his face…which was also bruised and battered with a few cuts.
“Spike oh my god what happened to you!?”she said standing up”Blueblood! did he hurt you?”she asked looking around for any signs of the noble in question.
“Yeah but I handled him.”Spike told her before jerking his thumb over his shoulder”see for yourself.”he said pointing behind him.
To Twilights shock Blueblood laid tied to a nearby tree out cold and restrained with several bike locks that Spike seemed to have gotten from some where each one wrapped around the tree and around the unconscious man to ensure he wouldn’t get away.
“Spike..I…what happened?”Twilight asked in shock her voice barely above a whisper whole looking at her little brother in shock.
“I’ll tell you once Shinning gets here but…Twilight I just wanna say something.”Spike sighed before standing up and looked his sister right in the eyes.
“W-what is it bro?”Twilight asked a little taken aback by her brothers demeanor he looked like he was ready to say something that had been eating him up inside.
“Twi…I can’t wait to start attending C.U.”Spike smiled at her making Twilight’s eyes widen at the statement.
