//------------------------------// // Apologies // Story: Hulklight Sparkle // by Flameboy //------------------------------// Apologies Author Note: Since I was trying to work on this chapter at school, it does the same thing: slow chapter saving that doesn't actually save. I have to be at my at my house to work on it. Back to the story. Spike was sitting on a ledge. He sat there looking all gloomy. In fact, he felt terrible. Terrible of what he said to Twilight as she was just trying to protect him. So, he looks up in shame as he sees Ponyville up in smoke. Well, some of it is still okay. He turns his face to the right side as he looked at the cave with burrowed eyebrows. Then, he took a deep breath, stood back up, and went inside the cave. he looked from left to right as he kept searching for his mutated sister. So, while he kept tip toeing inside the cave, he tried calling out to Twilight, but he couldn't hear her. Then, he heard sniffling, like, super sniffling. But, they weren't low, they were high pitched. "Twilight?" Spike said as he fidgeted with his index fingers by poking them together like he did in the 2017 movie. The sound was coming coming from Spike's front. Then, he heard the sniffling grow louder. As Spike kept tip toeing further to the noise, he heard some more loud sniffling as well as sobbing. It came from behind a big rock. You could say it looked like Patrick's rock from SpongeBob Squarepants. -Flameboy Spike climbed up the rock and kept climbing to the top. When he reached the top, he gave a little sigh of relief. Then, he looked down. He was shocked at first, then he opened his mouth in happiness as he saw his sister laying on the ground on her tummy, in her regular size and form. "I guess your crying helped turn you back to normal, huh Twilight?" Spike said as he slid down the rock and onto the ground and walked over to Twilight's left side. He stopped at Twilight's tummy. He saw her mouth being covered with her hooves. "Twilight?" He asked. Twilight responded by glancing her eyes toward him without moving her head, then she placed her mouth back in her hooves as she started to sniff and cry into her hooves once more. Spike knew why she wouldn't speak. He sighed, then he walked over to the front of Twilight's face. Then, he bent his knees into a crouching position. Next, he placed his left paw on Twilight's head, on the right side of her horn. "I'm sorry, Twilight. I should have never said those things. All you're were trying to do was protect me. But, it looks like you need someone to protect you from loneliness. Luckily, I'm here for you Twilight. After all, I'm still your number 1 assistant, and your little brother. Right?" Spike finished as he patted Twilight's head twice. Silence but sniffles and sobs were heard. Then, he burrowed his eyebrows to get answers from her. They were a little angry like, but they were calm nonetheless. "But still though, Twilight why did you make yourself into Spark?" Spike questions her by keeping his left paw on Twilight's head, but slides his right paw through Twilight's left glove and under left cheek. Twilight was still sobbing, but slower, and gentler. She stops, then she opens her eyes slowly as tears slowly fall out of them. She sees Spike's impression, but then he burrowed his eyebrows upward. "Please, Twilight, it's just one question?" Spike said as he lifted his left finger up. He lets go of Twilight's face as she faced the ground with her eyes closed. She heard him sit himself down in a sit-cross-applesauce position. Twilight circled her body to the right by squeezing her right arm and leg through her body and the ground. Then, she layed her right cheek into Spike's lap, getting ready to tell him why she became The Incredible Spark, without even knowing that it would turn her into that thing.
