So I was patrolling Canterlot as usual, then suddenly a loud roar is heard from Ponyville. The culprit of said roar was Spike, or rather Spikezilla. I felt no need to help since I knew Rarity accidentally fixes the problem anyway. I then saw the Wonderbolts flying to Ponyville.

It's at that moment that I realized, The Weathermare would surely try and stop Spikezilla. So now I had to go stop her from messing with the timeline of events, one problem though, Canterlot is too far for me to run there, the train takes two hours and if I tried to teleport there then I'd be too exhausted to move and that's if I managed to teleport there.

So basically I had to hope that Rainbow didn't mess things up too badly. I then remembered that The Well could have something to get me there faster. So I went to the clock tower, went down the elevator, then ran up to the computor. "Computor, do we have anything that could be used for quick transportation?" I asked.

"No" I gave it a blank stare. "But we have a springpad."

I raised an eyebrow. "A springpad?"

"Yes. It is on the balcony, have you not noticed it?" It asked me quizzically.

"How could you expect me to notice one of those?" I yelled.

The computor then put up a sprite of a digital pony shrugging.

"Well now I know." I mumbled as I walked to the balcony and this time, saw the springpad. "This is not gonna be fun." I said sarcastically. I stepped onto the springpad and pulled the lever... But nothing happened... Just when I was about to step off, it suddenly launched me towards Ponyville.

Hmm, we haven't had a third person scene in a while, have we? Well then let's change that.





[Third person pov.]

The Weathermare was fighting Spikezilla and the dragon was about to attack again, when suddenly The Mysterious Mare do Well rocketed right onto the beasts snout. MWD then threw two smoke bombs into his eyes, blinding him and making him drop Rarity. MWD jumped off of Spikezilla, but was whacked by his tail, sending her crashing into the roof of a house.

After shaking the dust off of herself, Mare do Well exited the building through a window. Spkezilla then noticed that he no longer had Rarity in his grasp and roared. Mare do Well ran over to Twilight Sparkle who was watching the scene unfold. "Twilight what happened?" MWD asked even though she already knew.

Twilight looked at MWD with a sad expression. "Appearantly we're witnessing dragon greed. It makes dragons grow faster, but I can't think of a way to stop it." She said, hanging her head.

Mare do Well studied the dragon, trying to think up any way to stop it. "I think I know what to do." She suddenly exclaimed. "Tell Rarity that the dragon is Spike, then have The Weathermare take Rarity into the air. Hopefully we can use Rarity to calm Spike down, maybe even reverse him to normal."

"How do you know if that would work?" Twilight asked.

"I don't!" Mare do Well said as she ran towards Spikezilla.

MDW went to the dragon's toe and bucked it. The dragon simply looked down and tried to step on MDW, but she already had moved. Spikezilla, now annoyed, continued to try stomping on the caped crusader, but she kept jumping out of the way. The dragon finally got lucky and crushed Mare do Well... Or so he thought, his foot started to be lifted. He moved it himself as to not fall over, but now he could see that Mare do Well was completely fine.

Mare do Well then pointed up, the dragon's gaze followed where she was pointing and saw The Weathermare holding Rarity level to his head. Mare do Well couldn't hear what Rarity was saying, but by the fact that Spikezilla wasn't trying to attack made her sure that it was working.





[First person pov.]

With that obligatory third person scene out of the way; Spikezilla then turned back into Spike and began falling. I easily caught him with my magic then set him on the ground, The Weathermare and Rarity landed soon afterwards. Twilight also ran over to us. Spike and Rarity started talking, with Twilight joining into the conversation soon afterwards, but I paid no attention, I simply prepared to teleport out of sight, but of course I was held back by Weathermare.

"Thanks for the help, to be honest I don't think I could've figured that out." Weathermare thanked me with a smile.

"I was mostly just a distraction, you did most of the work." I shot back at her.

"But it was your plan." She insisted.

"Yes, but that's all it was, a plan. A plan is useless if nopony follows it." I explained.

"...  I guess you're right. Still, thank you." She thanked me.

"No problem." I said as I disappeared in a puff of smoke.





To be honest nothing much is happening in Canterlot, but that just puts me on edge even more.
