Spike has been trying to impress and date Rarity since he saw her for the first time. His efforts has usually been fruitless.

After another failure and an advice from a friend, he had decided to try something completely different but, as usual, it didn't turn out well.

In this story, Spike is going to explain how he got in really serious trouble.

This story is a sequel to Ditzy Don't

Authors notes: The first chapter is super short (its also really awesome if I do say so myself) but the rest won't be. Promise. There will be some combat later on, but at the moment, it won't be super graphic, so again, dodging a bullet. The first 2 or 3 chapters will be a little sad/tragic, but its not the tone of the story, and its nothing to bad so they won't be tagged. The entire story will not be written like the first chapter. Lastly, as the story evolves tags are subject to change.

Spike was tired of hearing the tales of Rarity's coltfriends, and how they amaze her. Going home sad and broken, he found a black notebook that granted him the power to kill anypony as long as he had their name and face. He made a steely resolve to protect Rarity... at any cost.
