"What does the title mean by another ninja?" Asked Brak.
"Well, in volume 4, Chapter 18, Spike was shipped with Mulia Mild, and as you all know, in Mmmystery on the Friendship Express, in Pinkie imagination, she was a ninja." Explained Trixie.
"Oh, cool, so who's he getting with now?"
"Another villainess from the Power Ponies comic, named Shadowmane, she definitely has that mysterious and silent feel...........like the Mysterious Mare Do Well, who will be in fact featured in this volume." Added Luna. "Also, the Wikia says she's Ninja-themed, so I guess that's okay, now begin the story."
It was a dark night in Maretropolis, the perfect night, for a heist! As the guards flash their lights around, and helicopters and robot turrets where watching the perimeter as well, all to make sure the HDG (Huge Damn Gem) from being stolen. What the? Why is there a lasagna next to the exhibit of the HDG? Grr...Ride Along better not be eating on the job! Anywyas, somewhere on a rooftop, over looking the museum, a hooded mare watches from them, She had a black cloak, her top part of her face was covered by the shadows of the hood, her eyes glowed yellow, her coat was purple, and she had metal bracelets on all 4 hooves, at least what I think they are, no wonder she temporarily stole the powers of Mistress Marevelous, with those kind of bracelets she can go WONDER WOMAN!!! Sorry, I just love that song.
"Hmm..."
After a quick analysis, she disappeared! A light ran past a wall, then Shadowmane dropped the camo blanket! Then she snapped the neck of an unsuspecting guard! Then she threw a grappling hook onto a helicopter, and just like that, she was on the roof. Then she went for the power box on the roof, and shut down all of the power! Then after that, she entered the floor holding the HDG. She was about to steal it, but then the back-up power went on and Spike as Humdrum appeared!
"Shadowmane! My hunch was correct!"
"Humdrum?"
"Yeah, with the Power Ponies busy helping the Justice Circle of Friends, I'm the best this city's got! Now take her men!"
Then the guards and turrets began shooting and running at Shadowmane! Shadowmane then threw down a smoke bomb and escaped, or so she thought!
"Heh, pushover! Now that the Power Ponies are gone, time for us bad guys to..." That's when Spike stood before Shadowmane. "What the?"
"Thought you'd escape me huh?" Then she was surrounded by cops, turrets, and helicopters!
"Drat! Beaten by the sidekick."
After that Spike became her parole officer! Shadowmane was happy not to be arrested but now she has to be good or else she will go to jail.
"Uh, I'm gonna be the laughingstock of the Maretropolis Underworld! No one will let me live this down!"
"It's your own fault for being a criminal."
"Also, where are we going?"
"You'll see..." That's when they exited the comic book!
"What?"
"Welcome to another world, I'm Spike the dragon."
"..."
"Oh, yeah, sorry but I forgot to mention, you're a comic book villain."
"..."
"You must be pretty shocked, I kn..."
"I was not shocked, a Ninja is never alarmed, well except those teenage mutants & the 7th Hokage of Konohagakure, but most Ninjas are never alarmed."
"Oh...well anyways you'll be serving your parole in this dimension, don't worry the mayor allowed it."
"If you say so Spike."
"Now, let's get these cuffs off." Spike un-cuffed Shadowmane, then gave Shadowmane her metal hoof bands.
"So...what do need to do to serve my time?" She asked looking suspiciously at him.
"I'll show you..."
Later at the castle.
"Your job is to service me by day, and guard the castle by night."
"That's it?"
"Yeah, come-on, I'll show you to your room."
Spike then led Shadowmane to her room marked 'guest room 012'.
"This is where you'll be sleeping."
"Is this okay with your princess?"
"She's spending time with the parents...without me..." Spike then looked down, but perked right back-up. "B-but that's okay, besides..." Then he began hugging her & nuzzling her side. "My ninja waifu is here."
"WHAT?!" Now Spike had managed to shock her.
"You can't runaway because I'm you parole officer and will go to jail for trying to escape me."
later...
"(Crap, now I belong to a freaky fan!)" She thought angrily while resting her head on a hoof, and sitting at a table.
It was lunch time & Spike was preparing lunch for him and his 'waifu'. Spike entered the dining hall with a freshly cooked meal.
"Here you go sweetheart."
"You can eat my..."
"Uh, uh, uh, no bad mouthing, only mouth filling."
"Do you realize what you've just said?"
"Yes, now shut-up and eat."
Shadowmane took a bite of the food in front of her, and felt extravagant bliss from the taste. She made a cute face, but realized what she was doing and returned to a straight face, she looked-up and hoped Spike didn't see.
"That was cute."
"(DAMNIT!)"
"I knew you were gonna enjoy it here." Spike said with a big goofy smile.
"Shut-up!"
They then continued eating and she couldn't hide her joy from eating the food. After the meal was over they were sitting at the couch watching Persona 4 the Animation.
"WELL YOU SURE AS HELL DON'T SOUND ALL THAT MOTIVATED!!!" Kanji shouted.
"Hahaha, that scene cracks me up all the time, what do you think of this show."
"Well, since it's based off of a video game, *Blah* *Blah* *Blah*." Then outta nowhere, Spike scratched Shadowmane behind the ear, and Shadowmane began thumping her hoof rapidly. "Wha...what the?" Then she snapped at Spike. "How dare you treat a kunoichi shuch as myself like some dog?"
"I like making my waifu happy."
"(If only I could hit this jerk!)"
Later after the show was over, Spike and Shadowmane went out to the balcony, and looked on to see every pony going on their lives.
"Wow, so these are the citizens that rely on your master?"
"Yeah."
"It looks so peaceful."
"Yeah, Twilight and our friends are always saving the day, and it soon led to this castle."
"Amazing."
"This is what you can witness if you were on the good side."
The 2 watched on until sunset. Shadowmane liked spending doing this, she got to see many sights, but never paid attention to the beauty since she was always stealing something. Now, she has a better appreciation for the scenery. Shadowmane then, smiled being here with Spike, who cares if she's on parole, she's having some fun in the castle.
" *Yawn!* I'm getting tired, I'm gonna go get some sleep, you go get ready to protect the castle from any intruders."
"Alright."
Shadowmane hid in the ceiling, waiting for an intruder. 1 hour later, and someone in a black ninja suit entered, and Shadowmane sensed the presence!
"(And the hunt is on!)"
The enemy ninja walked cautiously sensing the presence of Shadowmane as well, until the silence was broken! Shadowmane jumped down and nearly crushed the enemy ninja with her punch! when her fist hit the floor, the floor the cracked
"Hello intruder, ready to get your head mounted on my wall?"
Then the ninja pulled out her sword! "Let's go young lady, I'm on a schedule."
It was Mulia Mild! She jumped at trying to cut Shadowmane, but she blocked with her metal wrist band! Then grabbed onto the sword with both hooves, and as Mulia was busy with the struggle, she kicked Mulia on the side, hard!
"You degenerate! Why are you preventing me from fulfilling my mission of kidnapping the little dragon who lives here?"
"You mean Spike?"
"Yes, my master told me specifically to kidnap him in order to end the Pimp Spike's Swag saga, so no-one can see anymore brand new Spike couples."
"What?"
"Yes, now get outta my way! You're only here because you're the next Spike shipping of this chapter!"
"I don't know what in the Tartarus you're saying, but I intend on making sure Spike is safe! Despite being on parole, I actually did enjoy the time I had here, even if it was a short while!"
"No, we can't let war of the 200 ships happen!"
Then Shadowmane punched a wall, giving her a razor sharp shard! Then she and Mulia Mild ran at each other then jumped and swung their weapons! There was a silence until Mulia Mild fell!
"(There's someone out to get Spike, and I gotta stop that person from getting to Spike!)" Then she looked and Mulia Mild. "I'll be taking this, I'm sorry."
The next morning, Spike woke-up to find that Shadowmane was gone.
"That cheat! Oh, I'm gonna burn her to a crisp!" That's when he found the dead Mulia Mild, and found a note attached to her body. "What?"
"Dear Spike,
Sorry I left, but there's someone trying to end you, please wait for me until I get back, when watching the sunset, think of me.
With love
Shadowmane."
Spike understood what she had to do, he smiled knowing that he had reformed her. So, he waited, and as the saying goes: "Good things come to those who wait."
"Now that's one way to reform a bad guy." Said Luna.
"Yeah, though let's not forget, he's gotta ship the villainesses somehow." Said Trixie.
"Bring the next letter as I set off fire works in Celestia's room."
