Celestia has spent a thousand years moving her ponies like pawns on the board.

Sometimes she forgets that lies can hurt more than the truth, until she is called out in one last letter.

Written after a discussion in the comments of An Age Long Since Passed. Thanks to Zealous Shift and The Great Derpsby for inspiring it!

Everypony remembers Tirek, the infamous, magic-stealing monster that walked Equestria all those years ago. However, few remember his brother, or the sacrifice he made to secure the future of ponykind.

Spike on the other hand remembers Scorpan quite well. Far more than he should, in fact. When memories from the distant past begin to emerge, memories of Scorpan and a dragon that looks uncannily similar to Spike, he has many questions, and very few answers.

Why does Spike have memories of a time eons past, and more importantly, why does the name ‘Scorpan’ sound so familiar?

Special thanks to Marshal Twilight for helping me touch up the story and plot, as well as editing.

When a shooting star listens to the soft wish of a young dragon, Spike finds himself in a bit of a 'freaky' situation with the stunning Rarity. A day in the life with each other gives them both a glimpse of what the shoe is like on the other hoof in terms of their relationship.

How will cope our favorite group of ponies, when they suddenly are trapped, not in a cage, but in their younger, smaller, and certainly cuter forms??, and what will do a certain trio af not-so-little fillies to avoid any harm while being in this form?,
Time to find out.

a HUGE thank you to TheARAuthor for editing this monster of story.
Edit: [24/09/14] Provisional Cover Art, I don't know if I must cheer for this, but still
YAY

No one's important. No one's special. Except for the princesses.

Blueblood's always known this. He's always accepted this. He'll never be special. He'll never do anything important.

But now he has to. There's too much at stake.

He knows he'll fail, but he has to try. Because...

For helping her complete a lengthy assignment, Twilight decides to treat Spike to breakfast, which will unexpectedly call forth their withdrawn thoughts and feelings and allow them to gain a deeper understanding of each other.

Set shortly after The Crystal Empire arc.

If the world thinks you are a snob and a fool, then everypony thinks it must be true. Azure Flame, the head of Canterlot's General Affairs Office, is a kind and quiet unicorn. Not at all snooty and more than willing to help others in need. But he has a secret. One that could destroy his whole life if revealed. So when the mare of his dreams starts asking questions he can't answer, he fears his truth coming out. And what's worse is a high society threat being made against both him and all he cares for. What can Azure Flame do?

I take no credit for the picture. I found it on Google.

Authors Note:
This is a Blueblood fanfic. Many people portray him as a rude snob or a downright evil pony. I understand, I totally get it, he is very easy to put into that role. But I decided to make him the good guy for once. Hope you enjoy.

Author's Note the Second: As of Chapter 13, the rating will change to Teen, and an new tag will be added, Adventure. However, since Slice of Life and Adventure can't go together, it's here in the notes, FYI. Things wont get too crazy, I just feel with all the sad stuff I've added, and the Epic Quest about to happen, some changes needed to be made.

Note the Third: Changing the Slice of Life to Adventure as of Chapter 24. I finally gave up on trying to make a Slice of Life story. I just wasn't doing so well on that regard. So, it is changed. Romance will continue, a bit slowly, as I am not the best at Romance.

For years now, Spike has been known as Twilight's baby dragon. But how much longer is he to remain a baby? When can he finally be teenager, all leading up to a big, strong adult dragon? With each passing year comes more questions and even less growth on his part, him staying the same size as ever. It is only with a final confrontation with Twilight on his thirteenth birthday does Spike learn the real truth. Dragon immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Thanks a ton to my incredibly awesome and talented collab partner Draconian Soul, who you guys should definitely check out for some really rad stories!

Another big round of thanks to my editors Xl9, SolidFire and mikemeiers for all their expert help!

When Spike asked Twilight to help him create The Noble Dragon Code, he hoped a lot of things would happen.

Getting worshipped as a god by legions of theologically-inclined dragons wasn't really one of them but, hey, whattcha gonna do? Them's the breaks, kiddo.

Equestria is not what you thought it was, and neither am I.

Through his story-like journal, Blueblood reveals a host of Equestrian secrets and offers a glimpse into the nation's precarious past and its relations with the rest of the world. The truth behind the Prince's character will shock even the most learned historian and alter the way the royal family is viewed forever.
