Hamtaro x MLP:FiM - Little Hamsters, Pony Adventures
Season 3: Episode 24 - Matters of the Heart Part 2
Previous ChapterNext ChapterPreviously, Spat played a nasty trick on Spike, which ended with Spike getting his heart broken hard. And now, there's a panning shot of Ponyville heading outside the village as a god-like voice speaks.
Outside of Ponyville there was a lake that has long been rumored to be where lovers would meet. So the legend goes.
Most of the time, special some ponies met elsewhere...
But for one purple dragon, the legend would come true...
Spike tried catching his breath as he rested by the lake. He was tired. Sad too. But what more could he do at this point? He just discovered that Rarity never did love him. And it broke his heart hard.
"I'm such a fool..." Spike said.
"Whose here?" A female voice asked. "Whoever is here, better reveal yourself."
Spike wasn't sure what to do, but he did try to look for the voice. That's when he ran right into an orange dragoness.
"Hey, watch where your go--" The Orange Dragoness started but was interupted when she looked at Spike.
"Ow...sorry. Hey, were you the one already here? I'm...sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you." Spike said.
The orange dragoness stared long and hard at Spike for a while. "...Um...I didn't hit you that hard, did I?" Spike asked.
"N-not at all. Sorry, I really should've watched where I was going too." The orange dragoness said, recovering quickly.
"It's ah...it's no big deal." Spike said. "I didn't realize you were here already. I can just leave." He then got up off the ground, but before he could go anywhere.
"Don't leave yet." The Orange Dragoness said. "I uh...I would like to think based on the way you just came here, you got something you need to get off your chest is all."
"I...I don't know if I want to talk about it." Spike said.
"Well, perhaps you'd like to just sit at the lake. Clearly, your problems are a lot worse then mine are if you just got here out of the blue." The orange dragoness said. "Unless you don't got problems."
"Well, I suppose I wouldn't mind sitting a lake for a bit. That is, if your okay with that." Smolder said.
"It's fine by me." The orange dragoness said. "Got a name?"
"I'm called Spike." Spike said.
"Spike huh?" The orange dragoness mulled it over. "How cute..." she said under her breath. "Name's Smolder."
"So, you said you had problems. Doubt it's too bad. I mean, your a dragon." Spike said.
"Meh, just something to do with my brother. Such a bonehead. Why he decided to try and raid a pheonix nest during the migration is beyond me." Smolder said.
Spike was curious about her brother's name, but decided not to ask yet. "Is there something against that?" Spike asked.
"Not so much discouraged as it would've been very bad. Phoenix eggs are poisonous to dragons. My brother and his two friends are lucky some other dragon stopped him before he did something he'd regret." Smolder said.
That's way too much of a coincidence. Spike thought to himself. "Is your brother's name Garble?" Spike asked.
"Let me guess, the dragon that stopped him was you huh? Well, I guess I owe you my thanks for stopping him from doing something so boneheaded if that's the case." Smolder said.
"Is he...always like that?" Spike asked.
"Afraid so. At least, ever since a bunch of ponies raided the egg supply a few years back around the time I was born. Celestia assured the current dragon lord that the ponies responsible were brought to justice, but my brother and several other dragons don't trust her." Smolder said. "The number grows day by day too..."
"Geez, that's pretty rough. And here I thought I had problems dealing with finding out a pony I had a crush on didn't really like me that way." Spike said.
"Tch, aren't you a bit young in terms of dragon age? I'd say your around my age." Smolder said. "If not just a couple years yonger."
Spike couldn't help but notice that too about Smolder. "Is this relevent in some way?" Spike asked.
"Well, that depends: How old would you say Rarity is as a Pony? I'm going to guess more adult then foal." Smolder said.
"That's right...your going somewhere with that aren't you?" Spike asked.
"Well aren't you the detective today? Yeah, dragons can live for upwards of a thousand years or more." Smolder said.
Spike winced. "...So...it really never would've worked out huh?" He asked.
"Not really." Smolder said. "I tend to come by this lake often; I wouldn't mind if you joined me."
"Yeah...Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing you again either." Spike said and then left.
"...Cute dragon. Has a bit of growing to do, but I can help him with that~" Smolder said before flying off.
Just then, Shade suddenly approached the lake. "Spat has no idea that instead of causing pain, he's only set Spike up on timeline's true path." Shade said. "Of course, Smolder wouldn't have met him here, if I hadn't encouraged she stay for another hour."
Shade approuched the lake's surface. "This lake's legend is very real; lovers did just meet here, and will meet here again in the future. My mother has seen it all." Shade said. "But for me, it does something other then give me romance."
As Shade soon looked right into the water's surface, at first it only showed his reflection. But then, behind him, a shadowy figure started to emerge. "...It shows me my very soul..." Shade ended.
Before the shadowy figure could solidify in the lake's reflection, the scene faded to black.
