//------------------------------// // -Epilogue- // Story: Pony Scales // by StreakTheFox //------------------------------// -Epilogue- Twilight awoke from her slumber, disturbed by a loud commotion coming from downstairs. She leaned up and lazily wiped her eyes as she began to survey the room, realizing that it was already well into the morning. Spike's bed was empty, which was normal for the dragon as he usually gets up before Twilight to do his morning chores. However, the commotion downstairs continued, the sound of hoofsteps rapidly clopping against the hardwood floor overcoming every other noise. As Twilight got up, she also heard Spike's voice downstairs, and he sounded... worried. Though muffled through the walls, Twilight could clearly hear the dragon frantically talking aloud, his voice clearly distraught. Is there some other pony in the library? Twilight thought to herself. What could they be doing that would cause so much of a ruckus? Finally, Twilight quickly brushed her mane with her comb and headed towards the door, using her magic to open it for her. She only took a few steps out before she was able to see exactly what was going on. There was a pony in the middle of the library frantically running from bookshelf to bookshelf as if searching for something. This pony had a purple fur with a green mane and green tail. Also, there were a pair of wings on the newly discovered pegasus, but at the moment their cutie mark was out of sight from Twilight's angle. Continuing down the stairs, Twilight soon reached the bottom. However, by the time she reached the last step, she noticed that not only was Spike not in the room, but the sound of his voice was coming from the one pony in the room. Twilight stared at the strange pony for a moment, yet before she could speak up herself, the other pony saw her and rushed right over to her. “TWILIGHT!” The pony cried desperately. “Ya gotta help me! I... I dunno how it happened!” “W-who are... who are you? You sound just like-” “Spike! I know, it's me, Spike! I don't know what happened, I just woke up and then all of a sudden I was like this!” “What? But, I didn't cast anything... do you think that perhaps, wait... what's that?” Twilight looked over Spike's side, getting a view of his flank. Plastered right in the center of Spike's flank was an all too familiar blue flower. Oh no, the poison joke field from the other day! Spike must have walked straight through it! “S-spike! I think you accidentally walked through that poison joke patch from yesterday, and it did... this to you!” “Poison joke!?” Spike asked, looking back at his flank. “So that's what that flower was... oh!” An idea popped in his mind as he remembered the last time poison joke affected Twilight. “I know just what to do!” Spike turned flank and walked straight to a nearby bookshelf, quickly scanning over it and then pulling out a book with his hooves. “Super Naturals! This should have what we need!” Spike set the book on the floor and opened it, scanning through the pages diligently. “Hey Twi', do you still remember some of the ingredients we need?” Spike listened for answer, but got non. “Um, Twilight?” Behind him, Twilight's body was frozen still as she stared at her assistant, more accurately at his finely toned flank. She bit her lip as Spike turned around, the motion causing his rear to wiggle slightly. A blush appeared on her face as she watched, entranced as she let her eyes fall against the rest of Spike's ponified body before staring right back at his behind. “That... flank...” Author Extra: For those of you interested in what went down in the back room of Zecora's home with dragonified Twilight and Spike, you will now have the chance to find out.
