Spike and Twilight are preparing many gifts on the ground. Twilight checks the gifts to make sure that no one is missing. When the purple unicorn is checking, she finds that Spike has eight gifts instead of six, which makes her feel weird. Twilight asks, "Hey, why are you making a lot of gifts?"
"Well, I have to give two more for my friend in Dragonland." Spike points at the magic circle that is drawn in the corner. "I have put the teleport gate there so I can visit it anytime I want."
"But you know dragons are very different from ponies, right?" Twilight throws her forehooves in the air. Spike puts the gift on her chest as the purple takes it and looks at him sternly, "Don't give the gift like this."
"You're just too worried." Spike boops her nose, "Open the gift. You will be surprised."
The purple unicorn rolls her eyes and opens the gift. She sees a book and a feather pen inside. The purple unicorn looks carefully at the book and finds that the book is the newest book in Equestria. Twilight looks at the purple dragon, "You know that you don't have to give me a book every year."
"Don't lie," Spike wraps his claw around her, "I know you like it. Don't like it."
Twilight sighs as she accepts the gift. Then she gives the purple dragon a present as Spike is curious what it is. When he opens it, he sees a book and a neckache. The purple dragon feels something wrong as Twilight glees. She explains, "This is my first enchanted neckache. Can you wear it for me?"
"All right," The purple dragon wraps his neckache around Twilight as the purple unicorn is surprised. After a while, Twilight is covered in a red aura. Spike touches the aura and feels it is very hard. The purple dragon smiles, "Hey, you got a defensive artifact."
"Nice going, Spike." Twilight takes off the neckache, "You really know how to destroy a heart," then she turns away.
Spike is trying to cool her down as the purple unicorn keeps turning away from him. The door opens and Sunset walks inside the door and sees that scene. "I swear that I see a couple in front of my eyes."
"Nice going," Spike keeps hugging Twilight, "But we are not a couple."
"Okay, if you insist," The orange dragon gives them two presents, "Here you are."
The purple duo opens the presents and finds that it is the doll of their bodies. Twilight feels weird when she shakes the doll and asks, "Why did you give me the doll?"
"Well, I learned about magic from zebras and I made this doll." Sunset takes a doll of her own, "With the help of Amelia, I can actually create this thing. It's called effigy." Spike is playing with his doll as Sunset continues to explain, "Don't worry, it will take the fatal death for you, once."
"Wow, you can create this thing?" Spike turns to the orange dragon, "Sorry for not preparing the gift,"
"That's okay, you can give it to me tomorrow." The orange dragon points at the magic circle, "I'm seeing that you can create this teleporter. Let's go to Dragon Land, shall we?"
"Fine," Spike and Twilight stand up as Spike looks at the presents, "We can give it later," then the librarians go to the magic circle to teleport to Dragonland. Amelia just flies to the room and sees the trio do that. She decides to follow them to explore the new land.
The Dragons are enjoying the nice day of sunshine as they are working in the mine. Ember and Smolder are chatting with each other as Smolder is cooking something. When she is going to finish, she sees something rolling on the mountain as the dragon duo looks at each other. They decide to fly there to see what happens.
"I can't believe that you draw the magic circle in the mountainside," Twilight stands up on Sunset's body and glares at the purple dragon, "Why don't you draw in somewhere less dangerous?"
"Sorry," Spike smiles nervously, "I forgot that circle was drawn somewhere like this."
"Then erase it and draw another one," Sunset stands up and rubs her body. "I never was a rolling boulder in my life, until now."
Spike looks around to see something change the subject. When they see Smolder and Ember, he waves his hand, "Hey, Smolder, Ember, can you help me here?"
The dragon duo looks at each other and flies near the librarian, "What are you doing here? I thought you were in pony town."
"Just visit Dragonland and give you some gifts," explains Spike as he looks at Sunset and Twilight. "Eh... shall we go to Dragonland?"
“I think I don't have a choice," Sunset sighs. When she looks around, she sees Amelia is flying to them. Ember and Smolder look at the cat curiously as the orange dragon asks, "Are you here to travel?"
"Yes," answers Amelia as the dragon duo is surprised. The white cat turns to them, "You don't mind, do you?"
"Sure," Ember nods, " The others will see you as a pet."
"That's fine," Amelia flies to Spike's head and lies. The purple dragon carries Twilight and follows the dragons to come to Dragonland.
When the librarian comes to Dragonland, they see that Dragonland has another big cave and many dragons are going inside, which makes them curious. Ember leads them to the big cave. Going inside, they see that many dragons are cooking and some of them are lying on the ground. "Interesting?" asks Ember as Sunset rubs her chin.
"Since when you have this place," asks Spike, "I thought that dragons don't cook,"
"Well..." Smolder rubs her head, "When they found that my cooking was so good for them, they started learning because of their ... pride."
"Now that is not good though, anyway..." Spike takes out the gifts and gives them to Smolder and Ember, "Here is my gift to you."
"Dragons don't give anything," Ember tilts her head in confusion, "Are you sure about this?"
Smolder smiles and takes the gifts. "Don't say that, Ember." Then she opens the gift and sees that it is a neckache. Smolder watches the necklace, "Wow, it's beautiful, I like it. Thanks, Spike,"
"Your welcome," Spike points at the blue dragon, "I know that dragons like jewels. Well... " he looks at Sunset, who is watching the cave as he sighs, "Except someone I know. Anyway, you should open it too, Ember."
Ember looks at the present and opens it. It is a sapphire ring. Ember smiles, "Thanks, Spike. I like it," then she hugs him as the purple dragon smiles. The blue dragon releases him and asks, "You have one more dragon. Have you given her yet?"
"Well..." Spike rubs his head and blushes, "I don't know, because she is completely different from other dragons."
When Ember is going to ask more, a sudden gray dragon is coming inside and interrupting the blue dragon. Torch looks around and sees the dragon is cooking so many. He sighs in relief because he knows the deliciousness of the cooking food. He turns around and sees the librarians, his daughter, and Smolder. "Oh hey, when did you come here?"
"Just a while after rolling from the mountain," Sunset glares at Spike as the purple dragon turns away. "Anyway, we just came here to give Ember and Smolder some gifts."
"Oh, do you have a gift for me?" Torch points at himself as the orange dragon shakes her head. Ember pulls the dragon lord out of the cave as he is surprised. When they are outside, he asks, "Why are you dragging me out?"
"I need some help," Ember sits down as the dragonlord tilts his head, "But first, can you summon Spike to talk to us?"
Torch teases, "Oh... you like him, right?" Ember slaps him as the dragonlord rubs his cheek, "Just like your mother."
Ember sighs, "Well, the thing is... Spike is falling in love with Sunset," Torch grins as the blue dragon continues, "The thing is... she is too dumb to realize it."
"I see," Torch looks at the ring, "Since he gives you this good ring, I will summon him to help him." Ember nods as she heads somewhere else as the dragonlord walks inside the cave to call the purple dragon.
Spike is walking into the cave as he is just called by the dragonlord. When he comes inside, he sees no one but Ember and Torch. The dragonlord asks him to take a seat as the purple dragon nods. He asks, "So, why are you calling me here?"
"Well..." Torch wraps his claw around the purple dragon, "I know you like that orange dragon."
"You mean Smolder?" The purple dragon shakes his head, "No, we are just friends."
"Don't lie," Ember folds her claw, "You know who we are talking to." Spike blushes and looks away. The blue dragon gives him a smirk, "That's why we call you here. We will help you."
"Really?" Spike is surprised, "I thought you would tease me,"
"Nah, why should we?" Torch snaps his fingers and the guards come inside and put down some food. "I just need you to judge this food and need some honest truth to make the food better," Spike nods as he starts talking with Torch and Ember.
Twilight is bathing in some hot water that the dragons lead her to here to relax. She also bathes with some dragons inside. Taking a chance, she asks many things about dragons and writes them into the paper. Amelia sighs and just says, "I know studying is good, but even Sunset doesn't study this crazy."
"I am done researching dragons," Twilight smiles as Amelia stands on Twilight's horn, "I can ask you too."
"Then no," Amelia shakes her head, "I refuse to spill the beans."
"OH, just ask how crazy Sunset is when she is studying magic," The purple unicorn takes the white cat by hooves, "I am sure that you should change your appearance because this form has a blue aura that makes us can't sleep at night."
"I take that. My husband finds it hard to sleep when he sleeps with the two of us because of these aurae. He says the same as you" Amelia huffs, "Anyway, I don't know though. All I received from Eldaro is that Sunset is very focused on magic, that old man has to drag Sunset out of her house sometime and forces her to learn something else."
"Wow," Twilight smiles, "I am curious about that world. Can you take me sometime?"
"Not now," Amelia shakes her head, "While creating a portal to connect two worlds, my sister and I have to make sure that the portal doesn't affect two worlds." Amelia flies in the water to relax. Twilight is going to ask more but Amelia raises her paws to stop, "If you ask what happens if we are not careful? The answers are simple: Destruction." Twilight gulps as Amelia looks around, "Hey, where's Spike and Sunset?"
"Spike is summoned by the dragonlord while Sunset is flying around to enjoy the moment of flying," answers Twilight, "I just came here to research more about dragons. Now, I can make a book about them."
"That's cool." Amelia looks at the sky, "I hope Spike is not in trouble."
Spike is finished with the food judging as he has no mercy on Torch's food, which makes the blue dragon have a comedy to watch. The gray dragon points at the purple dragon, "I will help you get Sunset in the dragon way."
"Dragon way?" Spike tilts his head, "What is it?"
"Well... give me a moment," Torch calls the guard and whispers something to the guards. The guard nods and quickly flies outside the cave. The dragonlord turns to Spike, "The dragon way is... if you love some dragon, you have to get it."
"Eh... I'm trying, you know," Spike rubs his chin, "I don't know how though."
Torch stands up, "Follow me,"
The purple dragon follows the gray dragon to a cave. Inside the cave, there is only a door inside. Spike is confused as he looks at the gray dragon while the gray dragon opens the door and explains, "Dragon way means if you love someone, you have to defeat her,"
Spike steps back and tries to get away but Torch catches his tail and pushes him into the door. The purple dragon keeps knocking on the door, "You are killing me, dragonlord. Please get me out." The door is not opened as Spike sighs. He stands up, turns around, and sees a familiar orange dragon walking inside with a wooden pole. Spike gulps, "Eh... hi, nice day isn't it?"
"Oh, I thought you were here to challenge me," Sunset points to the wooden pole at Spike, "That was what I heard about the guard. Anyway, I like your spirit."
"... Is the guard spilling anything?" Spike steps back as Sunset shakes her head. The purple dragon sighs in relief and points at the door, "I am not prepared. Can you... eh ... release me?"
"Sorry but no," Sunset grins, "Prepare yourself." Spike gulps as he knows that this is a long day for him.
