Fluttershy made Spike sit in a small washtub as she scrubbed his scales clean, as soon as they started Spike made several complaints and yelp's
"Sit still," Fluttershy said, "I know you, Spike, this is not the first time I've scrubbed you down with a broken rib." Fluttershy muttered, "this isn't even the first time this month!"
"It's not that! I have to go back to Trixie, I missed her show!" Spike sighed "I bet it was amazing?" Fluttershy frowned and looked at him closely
"Strange, I've seen you and Pinkie become overly attached to strangers but usually after you help them you cool it." she held his head and looked into his eyes "I've never seen you in this frantic to talk to anypony."
"That's because she's special," Spike said, "Like that Mime or that Circus pony." Fluttershy sighed as she walked to her medicine cabinet, as she rummaged through it Spike looked out the window at the Bear staring at him suspiciously. Spike waved at him then turned to Fluttershy "Is he still debating on if I exist or not?" Spike asked pointing to said bear.
"Yes," Fluttershy said, "Now hold still," she added holding up a jar of green Liquid
"No!" Spike said without hesitation, jumping out of the tub before he made it Fluttershy grabbed him and pulled him back
"This will help heal your ribs," Fluttershy said in a strained voice "Just hold still for a minute"
"Noooo!" Spike screamed as she started rubbing it on his chest "IT STINGS!!" after several minutes of struggling Fluttershy finished rubbing the liquid into his scales and Fluttershy breathed a sigh of relief
"Thank goodness," she said as she tapped on his chest "That takes care of that."
"Great!" Spike said as he climbed out of the tub "Well then I'll just see myself to the door and..." Fluttershy's stare cut him off "Not the Stare! NOT THE STARE!" He yelped covering his eye's
"Spike I hate to do this, But I am putting my hoof down...metaphorically" She added as she turned to her door, "I'm going to get some paper and a pencil and..." there was loud creak and a yelp of terror, Fluttershy turned on the spot and found to her dismay Spike had jumped out the window "...oh dear, Mr.Bear are you ok?" She asked as she poked her head out the window. The Bear was curled on the ground rocking back and forth. "Oh Dear, come inside and rest on the couch, I have to go and tell Pinkie that Spike's made a run for it."
"YEEHAW!" Spike yelled as he flew at top speed with Balloon Power, he stopped halfway to Ponyville "Wait, if I go back to Trixie, I'll just get into trouble again cause they think she's a fraud." Spike scratched his head for a second while coming up with a plan "If I want to prove to them she's real...I'll just bring an Ursa Major to attack the town, then when she beats it They'll have to let me hang out with her!" Spike smiled at his brilliance "I'm a genius!" he cheered as he shook his hands, somehow he was wearing his Party Launchers and after a second switched them to flight mode, he held his hands to his side and sent himself flying towards the Everfree forest in a blast of bubbles. Spike blasted through the tree's for a minute before slamming into a tree and rolling away on the ground until he rolled to a stop, Spike wheezed "Hey Author...how about a plot-convenient cave?" Suddenly Spike saw a convenient cave. "Thank you!"
Your Welcome
Spike walked over to the cave and entered it, he looked around before looking outside
"Better wait till nightfall, Trixie said she didn't have any night show's so I won't be interrupting anything!" Fluttershy flew at a fair speed as she looked around for Spike, after a few minutes she excepted that he was nowhere nearby and flew to ponyville, just in time to see a mob of ponies forming up threw a small plume of smoke, Fluttershy B lined it for Pinkie.
"...at the moment, He's getting...oh no" Pinkie sighed as Fluttershy landed in front of her "Spike ran off didn't he?"
"Yeah" Fluttershy muttered, the entire group sighed
"I should have guessed, alright everypony split up and find him, before he does something stupid!" Pinkie was silent for a second before amending to statement"something Stupider than what he already did" she added as the group split into groups of 2 and spread out across Ponyville.
