Having a mare flee in terror wasn't the response Spike hoped when he was trying to say hello. The reason behind her fear, however, was far more upsetting and opened up old wounds.

Thanks to FamousLastWords for pre-reading this story and for cleaning up the description.

Spike always knew he would lose her. He just never guessed it would be so soon...

(Just something short I wrote, because for me, grief always demands that I create. Cover sketch is by me as well.)

Spike's life has always been simple, with his adoptive mother under the care of ponies. But what of his father, the undisputed king of all dragons.
Now he has been pulled into the life of a royal dragon. He must constantly battle those who challenge him, like his brothers, for a title he doesn't even want.
Does he? Power, respect, gems. Does he want this more than his old life.
Only Luna understands both the inner and outer struggle he's going through.

When the ponies drink from a magic bowl they start to change or rather unleash their true selves. Ponies fall in love, transform, and tap into dark sides. How can a mere drink do this? Are these changes irreversable? Who caused this to happen? What is a pony to do?

I did some necessary changes so it flows better now

But a lot of ponies seem to think I’m constantly floating on that figurative cloud in the sky. Cloud 9, or whatever. I’m sidekick to the Princess, the Element of Magic herself! Great, right? Wrong.

Nothing happening can be worse, on rare occasion, then something happening. Spike knows how this feels, and takes his feelings to the Elements' journal.

Based off of a prompt given to me by Titanium Dragon. "Sometimes, the worst thing that can happen is nothing at all."

This story is a sequel to To Live is to Love

One day, Spike finally gets the courage together to ask Rarity out. When he finally goes to ask her, he sees something in the window that quickly shoots down that entire idea. After it happens, and he's trying to move on from the disappointment.

Rainbow Dash is there to help him out.

Spike knows that his good friend will always be there for him.

That's all she is, right?

Thanks to this guy right here for the awesome picture.

Spike's realized that it will never work between him and Rarity, so he writes a letter. A letter explaining everything to Rarity.

Who would've known that it would happen so fast? Heh... One day you're all fine, smiling and cracking jokes. But the next day... You're not there anymore. You just disappeared and took all the cheerfulness with you. I can't describe properly how much I miss you...

I miss you so much that it hurts but I must let you go.

Written in less than an hour in an attempt to get the writing groove back on.

One of the most powerful weapons in the universe ends up in the Everfree Forest and is discovered by a certain purple dragon. With it, Spike is able to turn into all sorts of different creatures! But he'll soon discover that the Omnitrix is something many aliens want. Something that warriors are willing to die, and kill for.

A Ben 10 crossover, without any of the Ben 10 characters.

Spike swallowed the Inspiration Manifestation spellbook. At the same time that he realizes he's gained its powers, Twilight learns about the fact that he literally ate a one-of-a-kind spellbook. Was it worth it?
