Equestria has undergone a new age of machinery and travel among the stars. Robotic helpers have vastly improved the lives of those living on the planet. Thanks to the genius of Dr. Oliver Starswirl, traveling among the far off worlds is now a reality. But there are dangers in that. Hostile beings began to destroy recon ships, killing innocent lives, and outraging the rulers of this utopian society. A new testing Initiative begins, codenamed "The D.R.A.G.O.N. Operatives". These beings are infused with the power to control machinery on a much stronger level than that of any normal person. The tests were successful, but it held...terrible side affects. After realizing that these hand made demons were a threat, the empire cast them out, sent to destroy any threats to Equestria. It works, and no more threats are seen. But years later, much after the testing of D.R.A.G.O.N operatives stopped, movement has occurred on a lone Spaceship.

As this happens, two new students join the Operative Initiative Academy, or O.I.A. U.N.I.C.O.R.N Operative Twilight Sparkle and young Operative in training Spike have finally made it. But what people will they meet, and what challenges will they face?

I'm a ordinary guy at school, nothing special. As I moved into town, I had to go to Canterlot High school, where I met the most wonderful girl, Sunset Shimmer. There is a jerk named Flash Sentry, and some other five awesome gals. But what I want to do the most, is protect this girl.

At a ordinary day in class, Cheerilee signs up a task that involves two people to pretend to be a married couple and experience the feeling of how tough it is to be in a relationship with another person. I got to team up with my new crush, Sunset Shimmer. As I continued to hang out with Sunset more often, something more sparks between us.

After seemingly small lapse of judgment on Rarity's part, Spike is left in an emotionally vulnerable state. An attempt to cheer the saddened dragon by Applejack quickly leads to the development of affection between the pair. But Applejack is not the only one with feelings for the reptilian assistant. Twilight also realizes her romantic love for the dragon as he spends more and more time outside the library and away from her. But her white counterpart soon admits her own feelings for her long-time, scaly suitor as well.
Three mares vying for the affections of one dragon. There can be only one winner. What will happen? Who will win? Read and find out! (An updated summary for new readers) (An update to the cover art may or may not follow. It all depends on whether I can find a better image for the story.)

Spike has been Twilight's assistant for years and has also helped her friends in Ponyville. He has done every thing for them, he even saved the Crystal Empire. He is a loyal dragon willing to do any thing for his friends, but what does he gets for it? Little to no respect. And that is what pushes him to run away.

Why would they?

Colts like fillies, boys like girls.

Maybe they're just curious.

Spike has been rejected by Rarity after helping her for a very important client and a fashion show. He disappears shortly afterwards, leaving Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, and the rest of the gang saddened by his absence.

It has been three years since that incident, and the girls have gotten past the sadness, but still get together to remember the purple dragon every year. On this day, a new pony comes to Ponyville, and although he knows nothing of what his life was like, helps the group have more fun and fills part of the hole left in their hearts from Spike.

Idea for the fashion show goes to LordPlagus777's story Heart of Scales.

Spike Drake has started attending Canterlot Academy as part of a Co-Ed experiment. With him being the only guy in an entire academy filled with hot and sexy girls, will his teenage hormones drive him crazy, or will the boy-starved student body eat him alive?

Twilight has the power to change the biological structure of anypony, or anydragon into something else. And, after seeing Rarity fall over other stallions, Spike the dragon wants Twilight to change him into a pony so that he could finally have a chance to be with the mare of his dreams. She gives in and casts a spell on Spike, turning him into a pony. However, this spell is temporary, unless Spike gets his cutie mark within three days.

But becoming a pony for the sake of Rarity comes at a price; Twilight Sparkle will lose her one and only number one assistant, something that is dear to both her and Spike.
