Shattered Pieces and a Shattered Dragon

A Search for our Dragon

“Oh my I look horrible.”

Rarity was staring into a mirror. She noticed her bloodshot eyes and the stained make up on her face. Her hair was a frizzed bundle of mess. She cried for two days straight and hadn’t bathed. After what happened to Spike she kicked Fancy out of her house.

“Rarity a lady should not cheat on her beloved. You have done very poorly and I am disappointed.”

Rarity told herself. Rarity felt like crying as she spoke but her tear ducts could not muster anymore moisture. She sighed and started picking up brush and make up with her magic.

“Oh boohoo if you want to get Spike back you must be presentable.”

She swabbed her face with a cloth and started applying makeup. After an hour she exited the bathroom.

“I’m so sorry Spike I never meant to hurt you.”

She kept mumbling to herself. Rarity was in an emotional hurricane as she thought up many different plans to make Spike forgive her. She had decided on one. Later this day she was going to the library to apologize to Spike and make him completely forget what she did. She never anticipated the chaos she was going to end up in.

After eating a very small breakfast she started trotting down the street towards the library. Her mind jumbled more as she tried to think of a way to apologize. The closer she was to the library the more her heart tightened into little knots. As she got two steps to the door her heart was racing like hurricane being in swirled with 50 Rainbow Dashes all doing a sonic rainboom . She finally arrived at the front door of the library and quickly gave three quick knocks.

“Please be here, please be here, please be here.”

A cheerful voice rang out “I’m coming!” The door then opened and there was our favourite librarian. The moment she laid her eyes on Rarity she then dropped her cheery smile and her face contorted into a slightly nasty frown.

“What are you doing here Rarity?”

Rarity slightly flinched at the words as she imagined a bit of anger behind them. She just threw caution out the window as she thought her ears deceived her.

“I’m looking for Spike. Where is my little Spikey Wikey?”

Twilight’s anger flared up even more.

“Your “ Spikey Wikey” is not here. He is in Cloudsdale with Pinkie.”

She once again thought she heard disdain but this time she didn’t think it was her imagination. Rarity’s eyes screwed up a bit and she mentally screamed.

“But I need him how can he be in Cloudsdale!?”

Twilight had enough. She spoke incredibly loud almost rivaling Fluttershy’s scream.

“Why so you can break his heart again?!”

Rarity reeled from the blow. She was mystified on Twilight’s attitude.

“What are you talking about?!”

“You know perfectly well what I’m talking about Raribitch!”

“I didn’t do anything wrong, why are you chewing me out?”

“You cheated on Spike!”

Rarity just flinched and started to tear up as she was reminded of that dreaded night. She then looked up at twilight with tomato red eyes.

“Why is he in Cloudsdale?”

“Pinkie is cheering him up.”

Twilight then focused her eyes on Rarity and spoke in a quiet but deadly voice. Her hair seemed to burn like the sun and her horn slowly started to glow.

“If you know what’s good for you then you won’t follow Spike and try to ruin his happiness again.”

“But I love him and I want to claim what was mine.”

Twilight sighed and suddenly slapped Rarity across the face.

“Then you shouldn’t have cheated on him, you know how much it hurt me to see him after he revealed what you did to him?”
It was Rarity’s turn to get angry.

“Why are you getting so worked up?! You don’t have to get so involved with Spike!”

“Because I am his best friend and I care for him you stuck up whore!”

“Why do you care so much?! If I remember you often just treat him like an assistant. He before used to talk about how he would do a lot of work for you and all you would do is tell him to do more. He may enjoy it but I call that slave driving.”

“Don’t you do the same thing? You would bribe Spike with fake signs of affection just so he would do your dirty work! You never truly loved him did you?”

Rarity felt like she was slammed in the gut with a freight train. She knew Twilight was truth about the first thing but she was wrong about the second. She truly did love Spike and her actions were merely caused about by her stupidity.

“I did love him Twilight why can’t you see that?! I did love him but I was stupid, I got caught up in the fashion world.”

Twilight actually sensed the truth behind Rarity’s voice.

“Fine! You want to know why I care so much?”

“Of course dear!”

Twilight suddenly tore up and tears started flowing down her face. She looked at Rarity with a face of unhinged sadness. Rarity was shocked by this turnabout of events. First was incredible rage then sadness.

“Because I fucking loved him.”

Rarity was rendered speechless.

“I had to stand in the side-lines while Spike tried to make you fall in love with him. I never made a move because I wanted Spike to be happy. Have you ever heard the saying that if you truly loved someone you would have to let them go? I did that for the last 5 years and now you wasted the one chance you had of getting someone truly perfect. Someone who could make you laugh with a funny joke, someone who actually cared for your safety emotionally and physically, someone who actually loves you for your personality and not your looks. Spike was truly the first male I have ever fallen in love with.”

Twilight then broke down into a ball of tears.

“Now he will probably fall in love with Pinkie and if she doesn’t return his feelings then he will be hurt again. I just don’t want to see Spike dejected; it just kills me on the inside. It hurts me even more that I will never be with Spike but I am his best friend and I don’t want to waste that.”

Rarity just looked on at Twilight’s sobbing form. She then sighed and offered a hoof to Twilight. The librarian just looked on with curiosity and moisture in her eyes.

“Help me get him back then. I love him too and I want him to be happy but I care for my friends too so I will try to share him with you.”

Twilight just searched Rarity’s voice for lies but couldn’t find any. She then stood up and grabbed Rarity’s hoof.

“Fine off to Cloudsdale we go! Come with me we shall teleport there.”

The pair then moved into the library and Twilight made a circle and told Rarity to move into the center. She then followed and grabbed Rarity’s hoof. Her horn started to glow and in a flash of purple light they were gone.

They were flying around and suddenly dropped in a soft cloud. Rarity was the first to groan.

“Does teleporting always do that?”

Twilight got up and started to daze about.

“Only if it has been awhile.”

“Come on then let’s find Spike!”

The duo then started to walk around Cloudsdale for hours. By the time the stars had set on the sky they had finally tired.

“Screw this let’s just use a search spell.”

Rarity’s jaw dropped.

“If you knew such a spell then why didn’t y you use that spell a while ago.”

Twilight just looked at Rarity.

“Don’t push me bitch.”

Twilight’s horn then glowed and her eyes appeared to take a lilac color.

“Eureka I found them!”

“Where are they dear?”

“They are In the northern cloud mountains for tourists. That place is close by and is known for picnics.”

Rarity then grew confident.

“Let’s go then! We are wasting time!”

The two ponies started running. Within 10 minutes they had arrived at their destination.

“Where could they be?”

“I don’t know Twi, I don’t know.”

They heard voices so they decided to investigate. As they moved closer to the source the voices had gotten louder and louder. They started to make out what the voices said.

“Only one thing could make this night perfect.”

“Yes.”

“Who could it be Twilight?”

“Let’s just see I am getting tired of searching for Spike!”

Twilight and Rarity couldn’t wait any longer so they rounded the corner and there they saw something that nearly made their eyes burst. Rarity’s breath got caught in her chest and Twilight took on a shocked but dominated stance.

There in wonderful harmony was Spike and Pinkie under a floating cherry tree. But what shocked them the most was their position. Spike’s lips were locked onto Pinkie’s.


Au= hehe first time I tried a cliff hanger.
