It was three in the afternoon, as Spike's normal Friday routine, he was going to the school to meet up with the crusaders. What awaited him was not the three nice fillies. In their place were the two meanest foals in Ponyville.
“Well well well, look what we have here Silver Spoon, an overgrown lizard.”
“Hehehe, what's lizard boy doing here anyway? Is he looking for the three little losers?”
Spike sighed, he could deal with Twilight's obsessiveness over studying and neatness. He could deal with pins and needles being stuck in his rump by his love Rarity. He could at least ignore and not question Pinkie Pie’s way of screwing with physics. He could not however, handle these two obnoxious, rude, and sadistic fillies, known as Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon.
“Its best to just ignore them and walk away. It doesn't look like the crusaders are here anyway.” Spike thought to himself as he turned and walked away.
“Hey! Don’t ignore us you overgrown spark spitting lizard!” Diamond Tiara shouted.”Ugh, whatever. Come on silver, lets go plan how we’re going to get him back for ignoring us.”She said with a sadistic grin.
Silver Spoon grinned and followed along.
Spike heard that they were planning something as he walked away, but for now it didn't matter to him. The crusaders wanted to meet with him and introduce him to the new crusader that was added a month ago. He hadn't got to meet her when she was here because she was only here for a week then had to go home. That week just had to be Twilight's Reorganization week, where everything is taken out, cleaned and put into its proper place. By everything, it means EVERYTHING. Not like reshelving day where its just the books. An entire week to clean everything, from books to dishes, to the things in that box under Twilight's bed which she told him to never ever, ever, touch. Which she of course “reorganized” in private, and on a weekly basis.
Now, apparently, the new crusader was moving to Ponyville permanently.”I wonder, if they're not here, maybe they’re at the clubhouse.” Spike thought to himself as he walked to Sweet Apple Acres. Spike continued down the dirt road and walked past Big Mac. He waved at Mac and Mac waved back. When Spike got to the house he saw that the sun was just starting to set behind a pair of mountains in the distance setting an orange like color in the sky.
Spike then got to the tree-house and could see that the door was still open. He walked up the ladder and when he got to the door he saw the new crusader.
”Spike! Finally you're here where have you been?” A high pitched squeaky voice called out.
“Hey Sweetie, sorry I’m late. I thought we were meeting at the schoolhouse like we always do.”
“Hiya Spike!’ Applebloom and Scootaloo said at the same time.
“Spike, This is mah cousin Babs Seed.” Applebloom said, pointing here hoof towards the new crusader.
“So this is the dragon you girls were talkin about?” Babs said turning around so she and Spike could look directly at each other.
“Eeyup.” AppleBloom mimicked her brother.
Spike was now looking into her eyes, and suddenly felt very nervous under her intimidating stare.”Err, Hi I’m Spike.”
“Cool, I’ve never seen a dragon before.” Babs said, her stare becoming less intimidating. Spike still felt nervous but didn't understand why.”I thought dragons had wings.” She commented.
“Twilight says I’ll grow my wings when i get older.” Spike replied.
Babs took the answer and asked nothing more, but still very interested in the dragon for reasons she couldn't put her hoof on.
Sweetie Belle, who had read her fair share of romance novels that she had “borrowed” from her sister, could see the look they were giving each other. She was about to comment on it when Scootaloo spoke up.
“Ok, now that we’re all here we can start thinking of ways to earn our cutie marks!” Scootaloo said as she began pacing. AppleBloom and Sweetie Belle just sat at the table with looks of deep thought and boredom.
Babs looked at the three fellow crusaders, then looked to spike with a look a curiosity. Spike just shrugged his shoulders and sat down to think about this, while Babs did the same.
About ten minutes passed when Scootaloo sat under the lantern that hung from the ceiling. The lantern’s light sprung to life with Scootaloo’s idea as her eyes widened with a sudden realization.” I've got an idea!” She shouted making everypony and dragon look at her.
Babs saw the lantern come to life as Scootaloo spoke. She turned to Spike with another questioning look. He only shrugged once more, thinking it was best not to question such things in Ponyville.
“Well, what is it?” Sweetie asked.
“It probably won't earn us our cutie marks, but It’ll be loads of fun” Scootaloo said as she grinned with her eyes on Babs.
“Why are you staring at me like that?” Babs asked.
“Well,”Scootaloo replied.”Pinkie Pie throws a party for everypony that moves to Ponyville, so i bet shes setting one up for you right now!”
“Then we should get over to Sugar Cube Corner, If Pinkie is throwing a party, its going to be there.” Apple Bloom said.
“Mmhmm” Two of the other crusaders replied. Three of them rushed out the door, leaving a dragon and a very confused pony behind.
“Are they always like this?” Babs asked Spike.
“Yea, but you get used to it.” Spike said standing up and walking out the door with Babs right behind him. Spike looked at the sky and noticed it was getting dark. “They probably don’t realize that Pinkie wouldn't throw a welcoming party for you at night. She’ll most likely do it tomorrow. So, where do you live?”
“Over by the library.”
“Hey, I live in the library. I guess I’ll walk you home then.” Spike chuckled nervously.
“Yea...” She said, then an awkward silence came between them as they walked.
Soon they were in front of her house. “Hey, umm, would you like to go with me to your welcoming party?” Spike asked while rubbing his arm and blushing.
“Uhh, Sure.” She said and started to blush.
“Really? I mean, cool. I’ll see you tomorrow. Bye!” Spike said as he ran back to the Library.
“Bye.” She said and walked into her house.
She could feel fangs sliding gently across her skin, planting kisses along her throat. Babs moaned as they rocked back and forth. She was about to burst when his lips moved to hers and in those final moments she felt his long reptilian tongue wrap around hers as they kissed. Then, darkness....
Babs woke and sat straight up panting and sweating, not because of a bad dream. Quite the opposite in fact and her bed sheets had the new stain to prove it, though she didn't wet the bed. She groaned at the fact she had to wash her sheets, then she remembered who she had dreamed about. "One meeting and i start thinking about him like this?" She thought to herself.
Shrugging off the thoughts she went about her morning by burying her sheets in the bottom of the washing machine to deal with later and getting cleaned up. At breakfast she noticed her parents were once again not here. "Figures, they're never home. Maybe if they stayed home more we would still be in Manehatten.
Spikes morning fared no better as he woke up pitching a tent and had walked downstairs, after dealing with it, to find a blushing Twilight. Apparently she had seen his "camp" when she woke up and was hopping to forget it so both said nothing about and went about their normal morning routine. Spike made breakfast for both, it had been part of Spikes job to do the cooking ever since Twi tried to make spaghetti with magic and ended up making it come to life trying to devour them. They had been saved by the ravenous hunger of Pinkie and Dash.
They finished just in time to have the door burst open and have Pinkie rush in, leave invitations to Babs' welcoming party and leave. Spike took that as the signal to clean up and get ready for the party. After, getting prepared Spike and Twilight left for the party and ,since they lived close to each other, Babs joined them on the walk to Sugar Cube Corner.
"Hiya Spike, Twilight." Babs greeted. She had all but forgotten the dream and she couldn't help but stare at Spike. Spike noticed this but did his best to just look forward and try not blush.
"So, how are you adjusting to Ponyville, Babs?" Twilight asked to try to break the tension.
"Just fine. It's a lot quieter here, for sure." Babs replied.
"Why did your family move here? If you don't mind me asking."
"Problems in school."
"What kind of problems?"
Babs was debating whether or not to tell them. She looked at Spike and he smiled at her hoping she would open up.
For some reason, she trusted him so she decided to tell them what happened. "I was expelled from school for putting a filly in the hospital. We both hurt each other so i didn't get arrested, but the school decided I started it so they expelled me. After that was put on my permanent record I couldn't get into any other school in Manehatten, so my parents moved us here so I could go to school."
"Oh my, what happened between you and that filly?"
"She and her friends were picking on somepony so I stepped in because they reminded me of when I was bullying the crusaders, I tried to stop it without fighting but she punched me and i went off."
"Sound like she deserved it to me." Spike said.
"Spike, violence is never the answer. But, yes it sounds like she did deserve it." Twilight said as they reached the party site. The windows were dark and nothing could be seen. So, they braced themselves as they opened the door for the inevitable shouts.
Inside Sugar Cube Corner, the only thing heard was the murmurings of the ponies within until a poofy shadow noticed the trio walking up to the door. The ponies quieted down as they noticed the trio outside. The instant the door opened the lights flared to life and everypony shouted "SURPRISE!" at once. Pinkie Pie rushed up too them and launched her usual barrage of questions asking if they were surprised, did they like it, and finished with "enjoy your party!" She then rushed back into the crowd to start the music Vinyl Scratch had been setting up with her DJ booth.
Once Babs had gotten the hellos and welcomes out of the way she went to a table and found the crusaders and Spike sitting there. She had joined the conversation late and all she got out of it was Scootaloo talking about some complicated way to get Rainbow Dash to notice her. Babs sat down across from Spike as they noticed her.
"HIYA BABS!" The crusaders greeted in unison.
"Hey girls." She replied.Together they talked about crusading plans. At some point Spike disappeared then reapeared later in the party next to Rarity. He was carrying a plate of snacks for her ans just following her like a little puppy. This made Babs slightly jealous. She dismissed that thought and went back to planning with the crusaders, but should couldn't stop from watching spike out of the corner of her eye.
Spike had really gone to get something to eat for himself but couldn't stop himself from obeying when rarity asked him to grab something for her. For the rest of the party he followed his secret love around with the plate of party food he got for her. She would occasionally take a piece from the plate while talking to other ponies. Spike noticed Babs staring at him at one point and he felt bad for just leaving her to follow Rarity around.
Soon, much to Pinkies dismay, the party ended. "The party started this morning and now it getting dark. How did the partly last all day? Don't ponies have to work? Oh, right. Its Saturday." Spike thought to himself as he walked home with Twilight. Tomorrow Rarity wants me to help her with an order. I guess the crusaders will have to go without me." Though the thought of helping his beloved Rarity make dresses made him happy, it didn't feel like all the other times he agreed to help her.
