Spike's Family is...

by trahzo


Friday: Fishing for Sweet Rarities!

Spike, woke-up to the smell of smoke!

"AH! FIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRREEEEE!!!" He shrieked, running out of the room he awoken in, he knew where he was and since he did know the place inside-out he ran to the bathroom, soaked a towel, then ran to where the smoke was coming from, he made it to the kitchen, then...

"Aw-man Spike, you just ruined the surprise, I was going make you breakfast in bed." said an adorable squeaky voice.

"Ah, morning Spike, I trust you've been doing wonderfully with the other families?" Said an elegant beautiful voice.

"Oh, it's just Sweetie Belle & her bad cooking." Spike unintentionally said, yeah, that was suppose to be a thought in his head.

"Hey, my cooking isn't that bad. Right mom & dad?"

"Your wonderful kiddo, your cooking might just be better than mine!"

Spike didn't notice the other 2 ponies sitting on at the kitchen table when he came in.

"Oh, hi Magnum, hi Pearl!'

"Don't call us that." Pearl said.

"Yeah, you might be our son, so for now, call us mom & dad!" Magnum added.

"O-okay let me restart. Morning...m-mom & d-d-dad." Spike was nervous saying that.

"So, I heard that you have a girlfriend, is she cute?" Magnum asked

"Of course, and she's very nice. Twilight is teaching her to become much better with magic."

"Well, we could continue this conversation once we're out on the boat!" Pearl interrupted

"What do you mean boat?" Rarity nervously asked "(Oh please don't...)" Magnum cut-off Rarity's final thought.

"We're going on a fishing trip out on the sea!" Magnum announced.

Spike & Sweetie Belle jumped with excitement, they've never gone fishing before & heard it was very fun...yeah, they heard it was fun, from a bunch of old ponies & ponies from the navy! Rarity went fishing with them plenty of times when she was a filly & didn't enjoy it not one bit! After hearing the announcement, she face hoofed. After breakfast, they left Carousel Boutique. Later, they were at the docks where Magnum rented a high quality boat!

"Alright family, ready?" Magnum asked.

"Ready dear!" Pearl answered.

"READY!" Spike & Sweetie Belle answered.

" *sigh* ready." Rarity answered.

They all got on the boat & off to sea they went. It took an exact 15 minutes for Spike to say...

"I can't believe this, those old guys & navy guys l-" he was interrupted when Magnum's line got something! "H-hey dad, you got a bite!"

"yep, & it's a whopper!" He replied

He reeled it in till he finally jerked it out of the water, what he had caught was a 7-inch long Snapper! Even if Magnum is old, he managed to jerk the fishing pole hard enough (No that isn't what she said!) to make the fish fly into the boat and then, BAM! slammed right into Rarity's face. This was one of the reasons why she hated fishing with her parents, all their catches would slam into her face but she didn't care, just as long as she's spending time with her family.

"Oops, sorry about that Rarity honey, why do fish keep on hitting in the face I wonder."

Spike & Sweetie Belle, but chuckled for a while till Sweetie's line caught something.

"Ooh, my turn!"

"If you can do this, you might get your fishing cutiemark." Spike said

"Your right, fishing cutiemark, come-on!" Sweetie Belle tried to do this. She poured her heart into this! She was passionate about this. She knew somehow by Spike's words that she would get her...

"Oh darn, the line snapped!" Sweetie belle said in defeat. "I guess fishing isn't my special talent either."

She sat their feeling sad, till Spike gave her a reassuring hug.

"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get it! Don't ever quit on your goal till the end. Keep on doing what your doing! One day, you're you'll finally make it too that goal!" Spike reassured her.

Sweetie Belle gave Spike a big hug.

"Thank you Spike, I really hope that you'll be part of our family."

"Don't worry about it."

"Oh, everypony look, I got a bite!" Rarity said.

The family cheered rarity on, she used their cheers to make her stronger, Rarity reeled & reeled, jerked & jerked, and pulled & pulled! Till finally...

"Ah! what's going on?!" Said an aquatic pony with fish scales.

"Woah! A sea pony, quick get the camera, that ought to show Twilight it wasn't the heat of the sun making me crazy when we went to the beach last summer!"

Pearl gave Spike her camera, he took the shot, but the sea pony sunk back into the water.

"Aw-man, she got away!" Spike said in defeat

"Well, Twilight might not believe you, but we certainly do!" This time, it was Sweetie Belle's turn to reassure Spike & he felt better.

"Hey, family look, I got something this time!" Pearl said

"Go, mom go!" Spike & Sweetie cheered.

She jerked her catch out of the water & it was a squid! The squid stuck to Rarity's face! She screamed, she ran around the boat. Magnum grabbed his bat which he used to beat his catch dead earlier & was now going to use it to get the squid off of his eldest daughter's face! As soon as he swung, the squid jumped off and back into the ocean in which the bat knocked Rarity out cold!

"OH-NO! Sorry kiddo!" Magnum said with concern.

"Don't worry, I checked her pulse, she's going to be okay!" Spike said

"Oh thank goodness!"

10 minutes passed and Rarity came to.

"Oh, what happened?" She asked

"It's nothing, don't worry about it." Pearl said

"Okay."

"Man, I still didn't c-" He was cut-off when his line caught something. He reeled it in, but it was powerful, obviously something big!

"Let me help you Spike!" Sweetie Belle offered.

"Thanks!"

These 2 struggled to get it out of the water, they needed the combined strength of the other 3 who soon helped! They all pulled with all their might till they finally got Spike's catch to jump out of the water!

"AH! SHARK!" Sweetie belle screamed!

It was a great white shark! It was agitated & started charging towards the boat!

"Quick, pull up the anchor, I'll get the boat ready!" Magnum commanded

Pearl cranked the anchor up, Rarity only fainted, Spike & Sweetie were frozen in terror, Magnum got the boat to start moving! He put the boat into turbo! The boat was going real fast, but guess what? So was the angry shark! It was a death race, the so shark was so close, till Sweetie Belle came-up with a brilliant Idea, she had Spike face the front of the boat! Than she stomped on his tail with all her might causing Spike to let loose a big flame which acted as a speed boost, helping them escape the great white shark and back to the docks on time for dinner! 10 minutes later again, Rarity came to.

"Wha-what happened? Are we dead?" She asked

"No, we escaped and look, Spike & Pearl got dinner ready!" Magnum answered.

Spike & Pearl made a delish Fish Filet out of the Snapper Magnum caught! I know, the ponies are all suppose to be herbivore's but remember the running of the leaves in the episode: "Fall Weather Friends"? Pinkie said that she eats hotdogs with ketchup! I'm 100% sure a vegetarian wouldn't do that, even tough Pinkie did sing about a pony's diet being strictly vegetarian in the episode: "Over a Barrel"! Oh & why would a pony even be fishing anyway? Remember the episode: "One Bad Apple". Magnum was seen fishing & he was doing it alone, if he was fishing with friends, then I'd believe it was a friendly competition to see who'd catch the biggest fish but it wasn't! Strictly vegetarian my ass G4! Anyway, Spike was about to finish his meal with one more bite, until Opal, purred & did cute things with a cute face. Spike couldn't resist Opal & decided to give her the final bite of his meal, he was full anyway! Spike had a blast, his 1s time fishing was a time he'd never forget! After they all finished eating & cleaned up the mess. Spike left carousel boutique a while after.

"Bye guys, see you next week!"

"Bye Spike!" The 4 said back

Later, he made it to the library, then went to his room, where his bed mysteriously appeared in even though it was in... well, he didn't exactly remember who's room he woke-up in this morning, but nonetheless he tucked himself to sleep, ready for the next day, a very big smile was on his face knowing that it was going to be Twilight Sparkle he was spending time with tomorrow! Gotta admit, the other girls were at a handicap knowing Spike's history with twilight started when he was born! But let's just see what Twilight Sparkle, the princess of Friendship's Magical Bond can do shall we?
