The Tales Of Spike - New Beginning

Present Day

The sun rises on the horizon to a brighter day in the morning. The birds chirping and flying around in the air, but it all started at Canterlot, a place of all... every creatures. Ponies, Changlings, Yaks, Griffins, Dragons, Hippogriffs, Kirins, and every creatures lived together at peace. It has been happening for four years since the Mane Six defeated Tirek, Chrysalis, and Cozy Glow by the power of Friendship. And now, alot has changed, but most importantly... so does everyone.

Inside the castle at the throne room was Princess Twilight Sparkle, a new ruler of Equestria discuss with a counselors of planning a festival called 'The Harmony Festival' for six days. "And that would be all for it, thank you for all your acceptance." Princess Twilight Sparkle said when the other counselors have bowed their heads and take their leave the throne room.

As soon as she sat down her throne, she hears the door opened that someone is entering. The one who appears to be a fourteen year old royal advisor Spike the dragon and his friend Sparx arrived in the throne room, this dragon has grown up for the last four years, and he is tall as pony size. "Hey Twilight sorry we're late, being in charge of the festival decorations was not easy task, but except with all the taste tests is good enough." He said while he sits next to Twilight. However his voice has changed a little.

"At least I have my best royal advisor in the whole Equestria, including you Sparx." She said, trying to cheer him up and it worked.

"Anyways, I've managed to send all the invitation on every kingdom we know, especially for our friends." Spike said to remind that he did what Twilight asked him to do. "I can't wait to see them again, it feels like it was... forever ago."

"Actually Spike, it's only been half a month." Twilight said to giving him a correct answer. "But I have to agree with you there, I sure hope we'll be spending time together."

"Yeah, me too." He agreed with her. "So how are you doing with your 'secret project' going on?"

"Well to be honest, it's not going well, because it takes alot of magic than mine to ignite it, but I'm getting there for sure." Twilight answered to explain to the teenage dragon, but a little confused of what exactly is she working on.

However, the door opens and a counselor give news to the Princess of friendship. "Your majesty, the next meeting will be in short time."

"Thank you, I will be right there." She nodded while the counselor bowed and take his leave. "Spike, it looks like our conversation will have to wait."

"Ah don't worry about it. Besides, I was gonna go back to deal with the Harmony Festival decorations, see you later." Spike said while he and Sparx are leaving the throne room.

"Okay Spike, good luck." Twilight said while she waved at him. As soon as he left, Princess Twilight turned her head smiling when she sees Spike has grown up and not longer a baby dragon he once was. It happens to everyone when they'll getting older. In her heart, she feels that she misses the old day, but there's nothing to go back to the past and move forward to the future.

....

Meanwhile, Spike and Sparx have arrived back to the place where the festival is, seeing the workers are building anything for it. The design are doing some decorations on the stage and making costumes for the play. And lastly, random ponies are practicing for the play. Everything is all good as according to plan for now, until there's one problem when one unicorn mare approaches to the teenage dragon. "Oh royal advisor thank goodness you have come, I require your help!" She said in accent, but desperate.

"Whaow calm down miss, what's seems to be a problem?" He asked when he tried to calm her down.

"While ago, I've ordered more fabrics for the play, but I forgot to pick those up at the post office, would you please bring them to me?" She said.

"Sure, I'll get them back to you in no time." Spike nodded to accept the unicorn mare's needs.

"Thank you royal advisor, you're one of the good ones." Unicorn mare gratefully said. "But before you go, tell them madam Shiny Jewel has send you."

"Okay, be right back." He said while he flies away with Sparx, headed to the Canterlot Post Office in short minutes.

....

By the time he and Sparx have arrived to a post office and head inside, but in his eyes, he sees one poster pony taking a nap like he's been waiting for somepony else to come, until now. "Um... excuse me." He tried to wake him up, but it didn't work when he's still asleep. So, he decided to speak a little louder. "Hey, wake up!"

The shout really startled a poster pony up, causing him to lose balance and then collapse to the floor. As soon as he getting back up, he sees Spike right in front of him, waiting for stallion's response. "Hello there, what can I help you with?" He said while sitting back on his seat.

"Hi, I'm here to pick up the package that belongs to Shiny Jewel, she send me to get it for her." Spike answered.

"Shiny Jewel you say, hmm... ah yes, I have it right in the back, give me a moment please." Poster pony said while he's headed to the back where all the mails and packages are. He then showing the box that have a fabrics what the unicorn mare need. "Here you go sir, have a great day."

"Thanks." Spike thankfully said to him while walk out to the door and then fly away to head back to the place. Hopefully the poster pony didn't over slept if anypony is coming in.

....

Spike and Sparx finally came back here and looking for a mare, until he saw her at the stage. He landed on the ground and said. "Ms. Jewel, I brought your package here."

"Ah perfect, this is just what I want to design a costumes for the play, thank you very much royal advisor." Shiny Jewel gratefully said to the teenage dragon.

Royal advisor Spike has done his first task, but there will be more assist he and Sparx should do while they look around. "Okay Sparx, we got that help done, I wonder if what else we should do next." Spike said to his dragonfly friend. However, they spotted three pony workers trying palance the sign. Spike decided to go over there and asked if they need their help. "Hey fellas, do you guys wanna help getting that up?"

"Huh? Oh yeah, we do need one more helping hooves with a perfect level for the sign that's all, if you wouldn't mind." One pony worker said when he needed one favor from Spike. The teenage dragon accepted when he headed to the sign and hold of it. "Okay... move a little to the right, more up, no wait down."

A pony worker is starting to make Spike loses his patience when he hears him say to move the sign anywhere, until he had enough. "Um sir, would it be a good time for I don't know, make up your mind please." Spike said when he's not amused.

"Oh, uh... sorry about that, this is good enough now." Pony worker apologized. The sign is now perfect place to the entrance for everyone yo get through. "Thanks for all your help there kid, we owe you one."

"It was no big deal, I'm just your friendly neighborhood royal advisor." Spike said after each of them wave each other and walk away. "Another job well done." Spike and Sparx have there second successful task as assistant as he always is for his life. They headed to the stage to see if everything is going nice and good. Until suddenly, he hears the sound of somepony complaining. As soon as he find the source, he saw a mare writing down script for the play, but seeing her erased the paper with the pencil really hard with aggressive look on her face. The teenage dragon knew he would had to checked up on that mare. "Hey miss, are you okay?"

"Hello there, and no I'm not okay." She answered with frustration and disappointment tone. "I'm getting really frustrated to figure out the story about Twilight Sparkle and her friends. But don't know what actually is their story."

"I can help you with that. Besides, I know Twilight Sparkle and her friends better than anyone." Spike said, remembering the time of his whole life with Twilight and the others because he's been there with them on their adventure, most of it times.

"You do? Then you must be Spike the dragon, the princess of friendship royal advisor. This is excellent, I can finally know all the details of their story." She said in excitement while grabbing a blank notes and pencil. "Please, tell me everything from the beginning and the end."

"Okay, it all started long time ago." Spike said when he sits down the chair and tell the story of Twilight and her friends. Every few minutes or so, the teenage dragon explains every single storylines of their adventures, hobbies, and everything. Most of every time there are good moments and bad moment, but it happens to the rest of them. The mare has completely understand when she wrote down every last few pages of the blank notes. In the end, she's finished it. "And that's it, that is a whole story I know."

"This is incredible, now this would be a perfect opportunity for the festival, thank you so much." She gratefully said.

"All in the days work." Spike said while he and Sparx headed out. "Well Sparx, I think that's all of it, now we can finally relax for one day." His dragonfly friend agree of his choice, looking around at everypony happy smile with their day all thanks to the princess of friendship royal advisor.

....

A few hours later in the afternoon, Princess Twilight and Spike are having dinner in the room, relieving after all the schedule in one day. "Spike, I've heard you helped a lot of ponies at the festival. And I have to say, I'm very proud of you and Sparx." Princess Twilight said happily.

"Ah it was nothing, I had to do it as an assistant." Spike said when he and Sparx hear that word coming from his older sister while stuffing his mouth with gems. The teenage dragon had a thought for a few moments on his mind. "Hey Twilight, ever since you took me in and raised me for many years, I couldn't stop thinking where do I come from and... you know what, nevermind. Sometimes its hard to know the truth."

"Oh Spike, I understand what you were saying, but I promise you will have answers someday." Princess Twilight said to comfort him, making the teenage dragon smiled. "But look on the bright side, you have home and you have me and everypony, this is where you always meant to be."

"Yeah... you're right, thanks for the pep talk Twi, I need that." Spike gratefully said to feel anything better.

"It was my pleasure." She said while wiped her mouth with her handkerchief. "Rest assured, tomorrow will be a great day for the rest of us."

"Yeah. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?" Spike said in a little excitement, but never know he made a mistake to say such cursed words.

....

At the night time far away west to the unknown place of foggy mountains. There were many of thousands lights coming from the big fortress, a fortress that is full of... mandrills. These creatures were grew many of them, working on building Cannons, armors, weapons, and cages for every predatory species around Equestria, even for dragons too. Their aggressive training are more strong, but lack of combat of their skills.

*Deep Horn Sound*

The sound of gjallarhorn has brought all the mandrills to their attentions, meaning that they all come to gather. Running, swimming, and climbing all together to head to a place where they were call upon by their commander. The big mandrill began to give a speech while all the mandrills are listening. "My fellow apes, hear me!" The commander shouted. "For fourteen years, we were stranded in this pitiful world so called Equestria, hiding our existins in the shadows from those... miserable creatures. Bot now, the time has come to welcoming our generals 'The sons of the Dark master'. With them, we will cleanse the world with death and fire!" The big mandrill revealed the four simples that's from the gateway back in Avalar, causing all the mandrills shouted in excitement and pounding their chests. Two mandrills bringing the stone gateway with four simples they've made. The commander began to speak the chanting words. "GRAHU.... ZIMN... FEHRAH... MAKROM!"

And so, the stone gateway has been activated by the calls of those simple when which of them glowed one by one, and the portal has been opened. The entire mandrills, even the commander kneel to their knees and lower their heads closely to the ground, seeing four figures approaches almost out of the portal with glowing red eyes. The Sons of the Dark Master... is coming.
