So, um, Spike came back, but he was beaten very badly. A dragoness carried him to my home and asked for my assistance. She explained that Twilight sent her here while Rarity was getting patched up, herself. Angel (just like my Angel *sqee*) set him down on my spare couch. He had some very bad bruises, scrapes, and cuts that looked painful. She pleaded for my help, and I got into action. I got all my medical tools and set them next to me. Ok. Mask? Check. Gloves. Check. Light? Check. Bandages? Check. Suture kit? Check. Ok, Fluttershy! You’re ready! Even if you have to… touch… his… bloody wounds…
Fluttershy shot a quick blush from the thought of touching Spike’s hard battle wounds. Angel noticed and raised her hand.
“Um, Fluttershy was it,” she asked, “You look red. Why don’t I do it while you get yourself together? You look like you’ll pass out.”
With a gentle smile as reassurance, she reached for the water-soaked towel and placed it on Spike's forehead. His breathing was slow and calm, despite his body being in such rough shape. They examined his body, but there was nothing they could do. His wounds were slowly, but surely, healing by themselves.
“I guess we’ll take turns watching over him,” Angel suggested, “You go first. I’m going back to check on my partner.”
Without any objections Fluttershy could muster, Angel got up and walked out of the cottage. She left a blushing Fluttershy and a sleeping Spike alone in the small house. All alone under the still, silent house.
Oh… my… It's just me, and Spike, alone. Under my house, nothing's going to happen Fluttershy. Nothing at all. It's just you and Spike. Here. All alone.
Thoughts quickly made their way to her face as she sat and thought of what she could do to the sleeping prince. Inhaling and exhaling, she decided to talk to him, despite the fact that he couldn't hear her.
"S-so, uh, Spike," she began, "It's a lovely day, isn't it? Rarity's safe, if you're wondering. She's being taken cared of as we, er, I speak. You were in pretty bad shape. What happened Spike? Well, it's not my business, so I'll stop asking; that is, unless you do want to tell. I don't mind, but you're sleeping, so I'll just stop now," Fluttershy took a momentary pause," ...You must have fought very hard to save Rarity, didn't you? You know, I'm jealous of her. She's lucky to have a strong, handsome dragon like you to love her. I mean, and I know this might sound weird, but before you left, I kinda liked you. It's not because you're a dragon, I swear!… Ok, maybe a little. I mean, you always helped my whenever you could. You kept me company sometimes when Rarity didn't need help, and I guess I slowly began to have feelings for my dragon friend. Every time you had to leave to go somewhere, I would smile and wave bye, but inside I felt as if I'd never see you again, and then you really did leave. None of us knew why, but I was devastated when you left. I never left this house until Twilight came and comforted me. I know she tried to help me, and I appreciate what she was trying to do. I really do, but sometimes, I would cry to sleep thinking that I'd never see you again, but I did. You came back! I was so happy I could scream. Luckily, no one heard it, not even you silly. I was so glad I could finally see the one I loved. I was happy. I really was. I get to see that dragon all grown up now, with a smile that gives me butterflies when I see it, but most of all... I can do this."
She got up and walked closer to him. Holding herself back, she hesitated. Finally, with all the courage she could muster, she hugged Spike's sleepy head. She caressed him gently, but firmly. A few seconds passed, and Fluttershy's tears began to fall along her hot cheeks. She cried in joyous relief. Her friend was safe, her dragon was alive, and her love was in her arms. Realizing the time, Fluttershy gently laid Spike's head back on the sofa's armrest. She rinsed the towel and rested it back on his forehead. Realizing that she had been crying, she rushed to the sink and washed her face. She was drying her still blushing face when somepony knocked on the door. Startled, Fluttershy walked to the door to see Rainbow Dash waiting there.
"Oh, Rainbow Dash," Fluttershy blinked, "what are you doing here?"
"I was told that we should switch?" Rainbow Dash said in a confused manner. Fluttershy looked at the time and realized that it was. Panicking, she explained what to do.
"Um, Ok." she said quickly, "I just replaced the towel on his head. Change the towel every twenty minutes. If he wakes up, make sure he eats, and make sure he's rested, ok?"
=
Rainbow Dash stood there, blinking and trying to process what she had to do. Before she could ask, Fluttershy was already gone. Standing there confused, she slowly walked into the cottage. She walked around until she found him in the living room, sleeping. His small, quiet breaths were the only sound audible next to Rainbow Dash's rapid heartbeats. The situation finally clicked and Rainbow Dash's face turned bright red. Her cyan color wasn't helping her hide it. With not much choice, she slowly walked and sat next to the dozed dragon. She sat quietly, letting only her fast heartbeat and Spike's cute little breathing break the silence.
Geez! Stupid Spike and your stupid, cute self. Why did you have to be so bucking good looking!? I mean, yeah, you were cool before, but now you're just over-the-top cool! Why, man?! You just had to go out on an adventure... without me... I wanted to be next to you Spike. I wanted to come with you and be by your side. I wanted to see you in action, kicking bad guys' rears and be all awesome and all... but you left with only a goodbye. Do you know how much tears I had to hold back when I watched you walk away? I made a rain cloud with my tears because of you! Of course, I had to wash it all out somewhere (Everfree Forest *cough cough*), but from that week on, if it wasn't for Twilight, I would have been dumping tears in that forest. But, hey, you came back, like, all mysterious-figure like. I didn't know who you were because your voice changed, you're a hay of a lot taller then before, and you're not the small little dragon I knew. Now you're tall, cool, and hot to beat... Well, not literally of course. I mean-It's just-GHAAA!!
Rainbow Dash quickly held Spike's head and made a quick kiss to the nose. Just as fast, she retracted back to her sitting position while her heart made loud thumps that echoed in the cottage. She looked around to make sure no one was there. The coast was clear, but her heart continued to beat at a high volume. To distract herself, she grabbed the towel, re-soaked it, drained it, and set it back atop his forehead. After she do so, a knock was heard from the front door. Startled, Rainbow Dash(ed) to the front door to find Pinkie Pie.
"H-hey Pinkie," Rainbow Dash greeted, "How's it going?"
"Oh, it's going," she replied, "Just here to switch with you."
"O-oh," Rainbow fumbled, "Is it that time already?"
She looked around to find a clock and realized the time had passed faster then she anticipated. Looking back at Pinkie, Rainbow Dash gave the following instructions quickly, "Alright. I've already changed the towel on his head. If it heats up, cool it again. If he gets up make sure he eats, but don't make him move. Why? I don't know. Fluttershy told me. Now got to fly. See ya!"
Rainbow Dash zoomed out of the cottage, leaving Pinkie Pie sitting with her notepad and pencil. After she finished jolting down everything, she looked up to find no cyan pegasus. After a shrug, she skipped into the cottage with a happy smile, closing the door with a gentle thud.
I see a harem coming
3880727 Pony Harem No Jutsu!!!
I totally thought Flutters was gonna' kiss him. I was more surprised when Rainbow did kiss him!
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,
These are their confessions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hahaha. great hapter
Man, Love this Chapter lol. You did a great job of describing how i would image them confessing their feeling in their tone. Now i don't know who I want him to hook up with (that is if i have to choose lol ) But still I can't wait to hear how everyone else feels for him. Keep it up dude, your work kills.
STILL THINK THIS STORY WOULD BE EVEN BETTER WITH A PREQUEL DUDE.
Ha! Looks like all the mares are gunning for Spike
3881177 Since you and a few others wanted a prequel, I'll do it after this story's done.
And here I was hoping for Spike and Angel...
God-damnit
3881293 Would you like to submit that as a vote to the SpikexAngel pool?
3881422 Yes, Please do. I rather dislike overused ships, (On a seperate note, Why are AppleDash and TwiDash ships more common, even individually, than Sparity ships? The show ships Sparity, FFS) and overused ships destroy stories.
Such as:
Human/Alicorn (especially Harem)
Any Mane 6/Rainbow Dash (Including harem)
Twilestia and Twiluna
(Whatever Shining/Twilight is called)
OCxRainbow Dash
Princest (I've personally declared war on this one)
Spike's harem isn't original, but it's not terribly overused, and can actually be done well, especially when OC's are involved.
And this story shows promise, so I'll look forward to whatever it is you have planned. Godspeed, Ventan.
hmm... u know i was wonderin what luv interest was gonna to hav but, this ? sounds lik it might be a harem... maybe ; anyways i wonder if angel or himself will let it slip that it was her (ang) who beat him up ?
3881677 I have to agree, I hate overuse match ups. I would love to see him get together with her. A natural attraction that he just can't fight. lol (Still want to see the mane 6 fall for him tho lol)
3881744 I still say if he wanted to he could have taken her but he didn't want to hurt her (maybe some hidden feelings he is trying to work out lol)
3881744 I still say if he wanted to he could have taken her but he didn't want to hurt her (maybe some hidden feelings he is trying to work out lol)
3881776
that might be true but, then again must heros don't really lik fightin girls unless they really hav to then they try to end it as quickly n' somewhat painless as possible
All these confessions... the feels... and Spike is knocked out. The goof ball. Spike needs to learn not to give his friends heart attacks, just sit down, talk to all of the Mane Six and just let things out.
Cast my vote for SpikexHarem. Spaity and Spilight is just an overused shipping. Don't get me wrong, there are good as parity and Spiligut fics out there. But there aren't man good SpikexHarem focs out there. And to be honest, making it a harem will satisfy everyone's needs. It has every possible Mane 6xSpike shipping. So no one is left out.
I vote harem. You've literally given me no choice; the way you put Fluttershy into the mix.
Damn you and you subliminal messaging.
3884573
Finally this Harem train is starting to move!
Spike, play your cards right and you might be able to get some Harem action going on. Like in My Little Pony: It's good to be a Princess.
3880820 oh god I can't breath!
3880820
I cant......Believe it.....
This sounds like a sequel to something. Is it a sequel to something?
3908184 So far, not planning to unless there's a dire demand.
3908209 HOLY SHIT YOU WATCH FAIRY TAIL!!!!!
Since Sparity and Spilight are apparently being treated as they are overused and mainstream at this point, I'm gonna bunk my shipping glasses and take a flier on Spike X Fluttershy!!
Why? It's not as used, and it's a little canon from it too, from the series premiere ("Oh!! A baby dragon!! **squees***), plus I like the idea of Fluttershy as the one that has a crush on Spike.
oh angel sounded like a beautiful name for the new dragoness but this chapter with Fluttershy..... the name angel is getting me confused a little with the dragoness and angel bunny
