This story is a sequel to Shining Armor Follows His Muse

Shining Armor is a very happy stallion. Why shouldn't he be happy? He has a good job, good friends, and just a good life overall. Sure, it would be nice if Cadance saw him as more than just a friend, but that's a pipe dream. At least things are going well with his RPG group—especially now that they've been joined by a lovely fey mare named Musette.

Even better, Musette and Cadance are on the road to becoming best friends with each other. And really, why wouldn't they get along? It's not like either one of them could ever be interested in Shining, or would have any reason to not like each other.

Yup, everything is going to be just fine.

This story is a sequel to The Big Switcharoo

A/N: It is very important that you read the prequel before reading this story; otherwise, some of the tags will not make any sense. Also, while this story is rated T for now, there's a chance it could become much more than that. Depending on how I feel about things, I might make this story get into M rating content.

Since the effects of "The Big Switcharoo" spell were permanent, Dragon Spike finds himself in an altnernate reality, where Dragons were the majority race, ponies were hostile, and the nation was called "Brimstone". Join the purple dragon we all know and love, as he manovours through countless obsicles, all while dealing with a dragon princess who's smitten with him beyond all belief. Strange thing is, he's smitten with her too.

Welp, here it is: My actual long-term side project, and what the smaller side-project was leading up to. This story is going to be a huge undertaking in more ways than one. The first part of that, is that nothing in this story will have a direct tie in with some episode from the MLP:FiM universe. But the second part and the bigger reason this will be such a huge undertaking, is that after the first chapter, I plan on every chapter having a word goal of twenty-five hundred. You read that correctly: For the first time, one of my story projects is going to be pushed beyond my ordinary limits and I'll be aiming for 2500 words per chapter. This story is an experiment to see if I can actually do something like this, and if people will actually enjoy the fact that I'm finally pushing past my comfort zone. If this story becomes well liked, you may just see future story projects from me having this same twenty-five-hundred-word goal. So...if you enjoy this attempt to make stories more in-depth, make sure you hit the like button. I'm setting a like goal of twenty-five likes, meaning if this story can get twenty-five green thumbs up, then twenty-five hundred words will be a standard moving forward.

We all know about Spike, dragon assistant to Twilight Sparkle. But what we never saw got to know about was Spike, a pony conclier assigned to Twilight Sparkle. Confusing yes? Turns out, there's an alternative universe to Equestria called Brimstone, and in this world, everything we thought we knew about our favorite ponies had some strange...counterparts.

And now, these two Spikes will find out just how similar yet different their worlds really are. And maybe, there might become a reason for their switch to remain permanent.

Looks like I'm keeping the isekia'd Spike train rolling. Seriously, there's been a trend of MLP:FiM's Spike being isekia'd into all sorts of things. But I doubt anyone's thought to isekia Spike into an alternate version of Equestria known as Brimstone.

Yeah the tags are basically spelling out what the heck you can expect. I shouldn't even try to hide my plans for this side project. So I won't bother. Just look at the tags and tell me what you think I have planned. Because I've officially gone mega crazy creative mode with how I'm tackling this.

Pray for Spike the Dragon's sanity; because it might not last long. Also, the teen rating is just to be absolutely safe, even if "kissing" isn't a mature warning tag. I...consider the act of kissing to at least be something that not everyone and their dog should be allowed to read.

As a side note, I couldn't find an outright pic of a Pony version of Spike & the dragon version of Spike we all know and love in one picture. So, I opted for the current picture instead. If someone out there wants to make a picture of Pony Spike & Dragon Spike in the same picture, or if someone finds on, link me to what you made/found, and I replace the current cover.

I may end up just keeping this one around for a sequel, as this is only meant as a prequel story to a much bigger side project.

Spike had been captured by a alien group called the Kraang for some time now, he was taken away after he just wanted to have some time to reflect. He was taken away from Equestria and brought to another dimension, he was in captivity for some time, but he then meets two strange creatures called" Human's" and are thrown into his cell, he meets a girl called April who has caught they're interest as well.

After some time waiting they are rescued by a group of 4 mutant turtles, after they fail to rescue April's father, Spike is now freed but without anywhere to go, so the turtles take Spike in and is trained by Master Splinter to stop the Kraang and return home.

New Cover art is thanks to Dragonknife 5, he helped make this and all credit goes to him.

After an unfortunate turn of events, Spike is turned into an earth pony. However, it soon becomes apparent that this turn of events was staged.

Inspired by Curse of the Werepony by dlazerous, but, goes in a different direction.

Times in Equestria are changing the ideals of unicorn supremacy as well as supremacy to the ponies as well as the ideas of the matriarchy are falling. With the addition of a male prince plus one more to come with the marriage between Princess Twilight Sparkle and Blueblood. The nobles are in an uproar, but this will not stop the presence of harmony from forming.

Multiple melodies, weaving in and out of one another, sometimes overlapping, sometimes competing, sometimes complimenting one another. Voices join in then fade away, adding to the collective whole. And in the end, maybe this symphony will lift the heart and dry the tears of an old foe.

Opaline has finally been defeated, peace has been restored to Equestria, and all is well. But Sunny still has a few lingering, nagging questions that beg to be answered. And there's only one creature who can answer them: Dragon Lord Spike.
