Twilight has gone off on her own journey, and Spike has been left in Ponyville for just over two years. To the surprise of Spike - as well as all those around him - he has grown at a considerably quick pace. Many consider him to no longer be the "baby dragon of Ponyville", but instead a helpful gentledragon with a kind heart.

Spike would soon come to find that while he is viewed as a dear friend by most, a certain shy pegasus sees him as increasingly intimidating. Can he overcome her phobias, and become close to one of his best friends once again? Or will he fall victim to his new looks, and have to cut ties with her?
