Everything was good in Equestria this day, everypony had finally gotten through the threat of Tirek and Sombra and everypony is finally settling down, Spike was in his room of the castle looking out the window and he sighs as he feels a little alone, it had been quite some time since something major happened, and while he was glad everything was peaceful again, he was still feeling useless for not being able to do anything that was able to help with they're last battle, or any previous battle for that matter.
"I should see if Twilight or the others need help" Spike thought as he went to check on his friends.
Spike had went to the library and he found twilight had been reading multiple books at once, teleporting around the library in the blink of an eye.
"Hey Twilight!" Spike said getting her attention and she looked away from the books
"Spike are you doing okay?" Twilight asked curious.
"I was actually checking to see if you needed anything actually" Spike said and she simply shook her head.
"Im sorry Spike i'm really busy with stuff right now, i have duty's i need to fulfil and can't really do anything else" She said sadly and Spike looked upset a little
"Oh... that's alright then i was just making sure you were doing well" Spike said to her.
"I really appreciate you for checking in on me Spike, i'll talk when i finally have free time" Twilight said with a smile
"Okay then i'll talk later Twilight see you" Spike said as he went to check on the others
"Twilight's always been busy with stuff now, fulfilling her roles as a princess, she rarely has time with me like she used to now..." Spike thought sadly as he went to the village to see if there was anything he could help with.
Spike had went to check on everyone else if they could spend some time but everypony else was busy, Rainbow dash was busy with multiple races, PinkiePie had multiple parties to throw today, Rarity had multiple designs of clothes to make today and was to caught up, Applejack was busy with her farm once again, and Fluttershy was in the woods with her animals apparently, it made Spike feel more upset that there was nothing he could do to help, they all were out handling things on their own, and Spike was just on the sidelines, not able to do anything, Spike kept asking around for most of the day until he truly saw there was nothing he had to help with, and it made him feel sad to know it.
"Everypony always have stuff to do, while i don't... will i ever have more to be then just a number 1 assistant?" Spike asked sadly as he made his way back to the castle, the sun had started to set as the day was almost over, not a single person needed his help at all today, and he was just feeling like they don't need his help at all.
He went into his room and went to the window once again to watch the sunset. He then heard a knock on his door and heard a familiar voice as it opened, Spike looked behind him and saw Twilight had come into the room, she looked a bit worried, she must've heard about what he tried doing today.
"Spike, are you doing okay?" Twilight asked worried as she came up to him, Spike knew he can't keep anything from her, and just went to tell her what was feeling.
"I don't know twilight i guess i've just been feeling... useless as of late" Spike said sadly as he continued to look out into the night sky while Twilight was still concerned.
"Why would you feel that way? You saved the Crystal Empire just recently" She said trying to cheer him up, while it was a bit true, it was still very lucky, it wasn't something Spike was able to do that by himself and handle like everyone else has.
"That almost wasn't my doing entirely, i was very lucky, i didn't do anything until the very end, and when Tirek attacked... i just didn't do anything either, and our tree was destroyed because of it..." Spike said sadly still not feeling much.
He continued to look out the window to try and think, there was a lot that was going through his mind, Twilight and the other's have done so much for Equestria since Nightmare Moon, and Spike never really got to do anything that can live up to their achievements, it made him wonder what he may get to do when his time comes.. if it ever comes..
"I just wonder what my destiny is one day and what i'm meant to become, you have a destiny as a princess.. and the others are the elements of harmony, while i'm just an assistant" Spike said sadly still looking out, and twilight looked sad as well.
"Don't ever feel useless Spike, no matter what you do i've been grateful, we all have no matter what" Twilight told him and he looked a little surprised
"Really" Spike asked looking at her, she smiled and put a hoof on his shoulder to comfort him
"We always will love and appreciate what you do Spike" Twilight said giving him a hug which Spike was a bit surprised by.
"Thank you Twilight..." Spike said with a smile hugging her back. The sun had finally set and the night sky was seen with hundreds of stars shining brightly.
"Good night, Spike" She said with a smile walking out the door with a smile.
Spike was alone and he sighed in sadness once again, even after that little talk, there wasn't much that was helping him with what he's going through, even if he continues being an assistant, he may never get to do something that can define his worth.
"Even though she assisted in telling me im not useless i still do" spike said sadly as he looked out the window again
"What is my destiny? what am i meant to become? will i be just an assistant forever? Or will i be something greater one day? I wish to know what it is soon.. " Spike said looking at the stars, he then decided it was time for bed and closed the window and went to sleep. Outside a single star started to shine brightly and Spike's body seemingly faded away as he wasn't there at all, completely disappearing from Equestria...
The sun had started to rise and there can be mountains shining over each other as the shadows came over them with clouds below, this land was not Equestria, and it looked like a completely different world. There were huge mountains in the distance, followed by clouds that were far below them, and looked like something out of a beautiful drawing.
"It seems the tree is close to its blossom" An old voice is heard as we cut to somewhere else entirely, an old looking turtle is seen walking down a path where the sun is rising besides a tree, he soon had a milled look of curiosity as he something besides the tree and he walked to it wondering what it could be.
"Well, what an interesting sight. and what might you be?" he asked curiously as he turned it over, his eyes widened slightly as he realized what it was.
"A dragon? how interesting..." he said with interest, he then proceeded to a use special ability of his and see who he is.
"Ah.. a friend of Celestia's haven't seen her in centuries, it seems the universe has had an interesting decision of fate for you Spike" He said already knowing his name, he knew Celestia for quite a long time, and was one of the first people she ever knew, he already knew this person was a kind soul if he's great friends with her, Spike then began to groaned as he opened his eyes, he was finally waking up after what felt like a week's worth of sleep, but he was still pretty tired.
"Morning already?" Spike asks tired as the sun rays hit him his eyes begin focus as they widen and he sees a large figure and backs up in fear as he has never saw something like him before.
"Who... who are you?!" Spike asks scarred as of where he was the turtle simply chuckled hearing it.
"Do not worry young Spike, i am only a friend, found you here besides the peach tree" he said as he used his staff and pointed at the tree directly above him which had some pink leaves on the branches, Spike's eyes widen as he realized... he was a very old turtle who somehow knew his name, and he didn't even ask yet.
"How do you know my name?" Spike asks still a little scarred still.
"I have many ability's with spiritual connection, and was able to find out why your here" He explained a bit which was a bit confusing.
"Why and how did i get here?" Spike asked curious, he looked around the place a bit and knew this wasn't like any place in Equestria.
"You were called here by the Universe, for a big purpose that will eventually come" he explained some more which felt like something from a fairy tail.. then again.. he's from a world full of that kind of stuff.
"The universe called me?" Spike asked very confused on hearing that, how could the Universe just magically summon Spike to what looked like another world?
"Yes, for you to fulfill a special purpose, something that could help you become what you were wanting to be." He explained more and Spike's eyes widened hearing that, was it really relating to the doubts and fears he's had for a while now?
"What purpose?" Spike asked confused but interested to know more.
"That will come in the future, let show you around, you should know where you are" He offered his claw and Spike hesitantly took it which helped him up, Spike looked around the hill and place some more to try and get his bearings.
"Who are you?" Spike asked once again since he wasn't told it yet.
"I am Master Oogway, the creator of Kung Fu. " Oogway answered revealing his name and Spike just looked confused even more as he's never heard of this before.
"Kung Fu?" Spike asked confused as they continued to walk down the path.
"I have much to teach you my young friend come with me" Oogway said as they made their way to a nearby building that was enormous, and looked both ancient, and grand at the same time, Spike's mind was overflowing with different thoughts, while he's in a place that's completely new, it looks like a place that can help him realize who he's meant to be, and wonder's if he's able to live up to it..
