Chapter 8
Fighting Back (Part 1)
The name's Spike. Maybe a few of you may know about my secret by now, but hey, I'm cool with it. I got good friends in school, a few of them is weird, but friends will be friends, right. Anyway, this is a special chapter. You see, I'll be talking through out the chapter and the next. Hope you don't mind. In this chapter there'll be new characters, new enemies, and a week when I save the day. How you may ask? It all started at my orphanage...
Spike was sleeping in a bunk bed snoring and drooling. Spike snorting waking up and slowly raises his head. He opens his eyes half way and looks at the clock. It was 7:50 a.m.
"I'm going to be late for school!" Spike cried out.
He jumps out of bed taking off his pajamas. He scrambles around the room looking for clothes that didn't smelled.
Yep, that's me. Just an average kid being late for school.
As Spike was making noises, he woke up his roommate. Comet Strike. He's sleeping in the top bunk bed. He rolled to we what was going on and fell out of bed hitting the floor with a loud THUD! His hair is black and long he has a ponytail behind his neck. He wore a CM Punk best in the worldT-shirt. At the back of his shirt was a fist holding up a lighting bolt. Also wears red sweat pants.
"OW!" he cried out on the floor feeling the pain. "You late again, Spike?"
That's Comet Strike, my roommate. He's a huge fan of CM Punk - AKA, his hero. Comet gets into wrestling and watches people getting hurt in wrestling. Problem was, he's at the bottom of the food chain. Meaning he can't wrestle. He's just a beginner.
"If I'm late again, Mr. discord would have a little talk with me after class," Spike said putting on clean clothes. "Come on, let's go."
"Spike, you know I don't go to school," Comet said as he puts on a red hoodie with the same logo picture but white.
"I'm know you do to go to school, but you know who's always there when I walk down the sidewalk," Spike shook in fear.
"And you know that I just started learning to wrestle, right?"
"You're a towel boy, Comet."
"That's where every WWE wrestler begins."
"Come on," Spike grabs his arm and pulls him out of the house.
They walk down the sidewalk in the neighborhood looking around making sure nothing had happens.
"Do you see her?" Spike said looking intensely.
"No, maybe we're lucky," Comet said. "Maybe we missed her."
They heard a loud roar coming from the distance. Spike and Comet was in fear. They knew what roar that is. They high tailed out of there running down the sidewalk.
"Think she'll catch us?" Spike said running.
"Not a chance," Comet said with confidants.
A motorcycle came out of nowhere stoping them from running. The motorcycle roared loudly making the two scoot back. The owner of the motorcycle got off of it and removes her helmet.
Her white hair flew forward. She wore a brown leather jacket with a griffin spreading its wings on the back and tight blue jeans, also wears black leather books.
"Evening, ladies," she said, grinning.
"Hi, Gilda," Spike and Comet both said in a sad tone.
That's Gilda. She another bully I have to deal with, but not the type of bully who makes fun of people or hurts them, so I guess she's a bully in a way but a good friend. She's a tough woman, her motorcycle was like a pet to her. She calls it Griffon. I guess she calls it that because it sounds like a roar every time she starts it. And also, has a way of paying the fee every once a week.
"You know the routine," Gilda said sticking her hand out in front of them.
"Okay, okay," Spike said as he reaches into his pocket taking out a five. "Here, take it and go."
"Ten dollars, little buddy," Gilda said.
"Ten dollars? What happen to five dollars?" Spike asked having a temper.
"See, I need money immediately to buy a new paint job on Griffon," Gilda explained. "Ten dollars."
Spike sighed heavily.
Like I said: she's a bully.
"I'll give you a ride to school," Gilda said kindly.
Comet gave Spike another five, he knew this was important to him. Spike took the five thanking him and hopped onto Gilda's motorcycle.
But also a good friend.
"Grab anywhere you want, Spike," Gilda said starting her motorcycle. "And I mean anywhere~."
Gilda teased Spike loving seeing him blush.
"And you still owe me ten dollars, Comet," Gilda glared at him.
"What!" Comet moans. "But that was the only five I had!"
"Bring a ten tomorrow or the next day," Gilda said putting on her helmet.
Spike wraps his arms around Gilda's waist holding on as she drives the motorcycle to school. They arrived at school just the moment the bell rings.
"Thanks, Gilda," Spike said getting off the motorcycle.
"Hey, wait," Gilda said handing him his five back.
"What's this for?" Spike asked curiously.
"Three reasons why," Gilda said. "One: I'm not a bad girl. Two: Comet will be giving me ten dollars which will make fifteen since I have his five. And three: ...You felt comfortable when you held me tightly."
She winks at him. Spike blushes as he looks away from her.
"We should do this again," Gilda said flirting with him as she drove off.
Spike ignores her and rushes to class. He ran through the hallway hearing the final bell. As he reaches to his classroom, he went over to his seat right next to Twilight.
"Late again are we?" Twilight said.
"My alarm clock didn't go off," Spike said.
You know Twilight and her friends. Twilight knows about my past, but not all of it. That's right, there's more to hear, and a lot harsher. Right now she's the only one who knows about my past.
"So," Twilight said.
"'So' what?" Spike asked wondering.
"How's your folks doing?" Twilight asked making Spike nerves.
"Oh, uh... Their- Their doing fine," Spike said nervously.
"Oh, good," Twilight said.
She face palms while Spike was looking away. She said in her head what a stupid question that was for her to say.
"Good morning, class," Mr. Discord walks in the room.
"Good morning, Mr. Discord!" the students said to him.
Mr. Discord. The meanest teacher I ever had AND met. Sometimes we think he's an evil or a crazy scientist because the way he acts. Last time he gave us a test we never studied on and gave us all F's just because someone corrected him big time, so he took his anger out towards us instead. Man, what a jerk.
"Turn your science book to page 173," Discord continued. "And, Spike, I like to see you after class."
"Crap," Spike mumbled.
At first I thought it was about my absents, but after class he caught my surprise.
After class every student left except for Spike. He was sitting in the room alone with Discord making it awkward for him.
"Spike, I need to talk to you about something," Discord spoke while sitting down in his desk.
"I'm sorry I'm late for class, Mr. Discord, I promise it won't happen again," Spike looking down at his desk.
"That's not what I want to talk about," Discord said.
"Then what did you want to talk about?" Spike asked, thanking The Lord it wasn't about his absents.
"Principal Celestia is making a few small changing a in school," Discord explained. "She wants a Vice Principal in school and the teachers here are competing who will work for her."
"... And that's where you come in?" Spike guesses.
"That's why I need your honesty," Discord took a small model of a football field under his desk. It shows high benches, football players, and small bits of confetti around the field.
Spike went over to the model and looks at it questioning it.
"What's it for?" Spike asked.
"This is the future, Spike," Discord said with excitement. "If I can show this to the principal, she would make me Vice Principal in a split second."
"Where will this be built though?"
"Somewhere in town, where there's a bigger field."
I'm surprise this school still doesn't have a Vice Principal. But Mr. Discord as Vice Principal? I had a feeling this wasn't going to end up well.
Spike walks out of class as he roams around the school. Students would go by heading to their next class. But something was wrong. Students were walking down the hallway heading to the same direction. Spike followed and saw what they were Gathered up for. a group of older students were visiting the school. They were known as college students.
College students. I heard they sometime come and visit their friends last years, but this was a first for me. I can tell they were popular back then and still are apparently.
"Who are they?" Spike asked.
"Those are the college students," Pipsqueak said stepping through the crowd. "They come here every once a year just to come and visit us."
The first college student I spotted was a girl name Fleur De Lis. She wore a light pink shirt with black pants. She also wore white high heels. She's pretty, I'll give her that. She a model for clothes. Fashion is her style, she wasn't like one of the mean girls, instead she was kind and generous and... and she's walking up to me. Why is she walking up to me? Have I met her before?
Fleur De Lis walks up to Spike and Pipsqueak. She was taller than Twilight and her friends. She kneels down and looks at Spike. The more she looks at him the more, the more it grew awkward.
"Are you Spike?" she asked.
"Yes, yes I am," Spike said as he was jerked from her.
She picks him up and swings him around holding tightly to him. She was adored by Spike and was cuddling him.
"Aren't you the precious thing I ever seen!" Fleur said hugging him tightly.
I don't why all the girls would adore me. Just because I'm a ten year old who skipped three grades doesn't mean that... Well I haven't really found that meaning yet, but you get what I'm saying.
As Fleur was hugging Spike, someone took him away. A women in a dark blue suit took him out of her arms as Pipsqueak watches jealous at Spike.
"Fleur De Lis, don't take people that doesn't belong to you," she said to her.
That's Luna, Principal Celestia's sister. She has ways of acting like she's the boss, she wanted to be like her sister one day. So we try to help her along the way.
"Luna, I wanted to hug him some more," Fleur said whining. "You don't get to meet a ten year old who's in freshmen year!"
"Sorry, rules are rules," Luna said acting like she's responsible to Spike.
Fleur went over to Spike and gave him a look that her eyes sparkles.
"Guess I'll catch you later then," Fleur went over to Spike's ear whispering. "I will catch you, when you're not looking."
Spike turn red hard. He threw his hood over his head hiding his blush.
"The rumors were true!" Fleur said making a victory pose. "We have to become friends once we get to know each other."
Fleur ran off meeting her other friends. Spike and Luna look at each other smiling and laughed.
"How did I do?" Luna asked smiling.
"Great, you did fantastic," Spike applaud for her. "You'll become like your sister in no time."
"I'll never become like my sister," Luna said.
"Sure you will, you should try becoming a Vice Principal," Spike inspired her to be.
"I'll think about it, right now you should go to lunch," Luna ordered.
"Sure thing," Spike said.
"I mean! Go to lunch right this second young man!" Luna ordered in a loud tone.
"Yes, ma'am!" Spike saluted and headed to lunch.
Before he did, he saw Pipsqueak smiling at Luna. Spike grabs his arm and drags him to the cafeteria still looking at Luna.
(At Lunch)
Spike and Pipsqueak sat in a table and talked till their friends arrived.
"How do you do it?" Pipsqueak asked Spike, not sure what he was talking about.
"'How I do' what?" Spike asked.
"Get the girls," Pipsqueak answered.
"I don't get girls."
"Dude, they surround you and flirt with you. Fleur Dis Lee back there hugged you like she was you teddy bear."
"They don't flirt with me, they... they just adored of me because I'm ten in freshmen year. And I'm not the only one."
"What do you mean?"
"The way you look at Luna."
"Hey! That's just one girl, you have the whole school flirting with you."
Pipsqueak has a major crush on Luna; which is weird. The moment he laid eyes on her was the day The Diamond Dogs picked on him the other day. Luna came to the rescue and stops them. Ever since that happened, Pipsqueak fell in love.
"Speaking of flirting," Pipsqueak points over to Blueblood flirting with Merry May.
"Hey guys," Rainbow Dash sat with Spike and Pipsqueak.
"Is he at it again?" Spike asked.
"You notice two?" Rainbow Dash saw him flirting with Merry.
"What's up with that pansy?" Pipsqueak asked.
"Ever since he lost Rarity, he's trying to win her heart back to her," Rainbow Dash answered.
"Why is he flirting with Merry then?" Spike said wondering.
"Just to make Rarity jealous I guess," she said.
Blueblood, or what he likes to be called by his nickname: Prince Blueblood. He owns a mansion with a rich family. A snotty rich kid we like to call him, except for women. They are in love with him because of three things: Wealth, fame, and good looks.
"Everybody run!" a student cried out running across the cafeteria. "Garble is coming!"
"Garble!" Rainbow Dash gasp.
"GARBLE?!" Pipsqueak panics.
"Garble?" Spike didn't knew who he was.
Garble. The meanest, gruesome college student I ever seen. Last time he put a sophomore in a boiler room and locked him in their. Then he took the girls panties and hung them on the flag pole. Then he tied a middle schooler onto a tree throwing balloons filled with paint at him. He is a living nightmare walking on earth.
"Who's Grable?" Spike asked again.
"He's worser than The Diamond Dogs," Pipsqueak hid under the table.
"Yeah, Spike, even I'm scared of this dude," Rainbow Dash said.
"Gather round, Equestria High!" Garble announces.
His hair was red and spiked up like Spike's hair style. He wore a Red zipped up jacket and an Orange T-shirt underneath it. He also wore light brown pants and red sneakers.
"What's he doing?" Spike asked.
"He's about to unzip his jacket," Pipsqueak took a small peek under the table. "Waiting who's next."
"He picks out names of every student in school," Rainbow Dash said. "Who ever name is on his shirt, may God have mercy on his or her soul."
Garble grabs the zipper and unzips his jacket. When he did the students around him gasps. The name was written in a sharpie with big letters. The shirt said SPIKE THE NEW KID on it.
"Spike The New Kid!" the students cried out saying Spike's name.
They all look at one table where Spike was sitting seeing Spike surprise with eyes wide open.
"Oh, shit," Spike quietly whimpered.
"Spike!" Garble cried out smiling as he walks up to him.
"You guys got my back, right?" Spike said waiting for an answer. "...Guys?"
He look at his table and his friends were gone.
"...Guys?"
"So you're the new kid, aren't ya?" Garble came behind him making Spike jump.
"Yeah, been here two months now," Spike calmly said. "I heard you were bad news."
"And I heard that you have girls surround you," Garble leans over on the table. "Since this is the first time we met. I'll go easy on you."
"This is deja vu all over again," Spike said remembering the first day he was here.
"What do you mean?" Garble asked.
"The first time I was here, The Diamond Dogs took me on a small detour and-"
Garbel pushes his head against the table making a loud THUD! Spike felt pain on his head.
"First of all, I'm nothing compare to those stooges," Garble said still holding Spike down. "And secondly, we're gonna have fun together."
Garble grabs mash potatoes out of his tray. He lifts Spike's head and smother the mash potatoes on his face.
"Hope you're hungry for more," Garbel said taking Spike. He drags him across the floor and then outside.
He drags Spike and picks him up.
"Time to play dirty," Garble threw Spike into the mud face first.
Spike slowly got up wiping the mud off his face but Garble grabs his collar and carries him towards a dumpster. He threw Spike in the dumpster and closes the lid. Garble took a padlock out of his jacket and locks it leaving Spike locked in.
"We should do this again sometime, Spite," Garble said walking away.
"It's Spike you Bastard!" Spike cried out. He tried getting out but the lid was locked. "Hello?... Anybody?"
Minutes went by and the lid was lifted up by Rainbow Dash with her pick-locking skills along with Pipsqueak by her side. Spike crawls out of the dumpster covered in trash, mud, and food. Rainbow Dash and Pipsqueak helps him out of it.
"Oh, NOW you guys come to help me!" Spike was in rage.
"Sorry, dude," Rainbow Dash said. "But he's scary enough as it is."
"Yeah, I mean it could've been worser for you," Pipsqueak said. "He could've smash you against the locker multiple times, or hung you on the flag pole giving you an atomic wedgie, and dude you smell bad."
Spike sniffs himself and shook his whole body in disgust of the smell. His friends took a step back covering their nose.
"I think it's time for a shower," Spike said.
Later, Spike walks up to Cranky Doodle at the front of the school cleaning. He wore a Janitor outfit with his name patch on his shirt. He was was blowing leafs with a leaf blower blowing away the leafs. He smelled something funny and turned to see Spike all dirty.
Cranky Doodle is awesome. Yeah, sure, sometimes he's cranky but he's actually a good guy. His job is to clean the school. He also help the students get away with trouble in time. Like last time, me and Pipsqueak was going to be late for class, but Cranky Doodle came to the rescue and distracted our teacher while we came in her class without her noticing. Best Janitor ever.
"You mind?" Spike asked.
"I'll get the hose," Cranky said setting down the leaf blower.
When he came back, Spike stood out on the open field spreading his arms out. Cranky turns on the water hose and sprays Spike with water. Spike was rinsing himself getting the dirt and smell off of him. Rainbow Dash and Pipsqueak stood their watching as they laugh thinking this wouldn't work. But it did. Next, Cranky Doodle picked up the leaf blower and blows it on Spike drying him. Spike turns in circles getting every bit of wet spots dry. When Spike was dry, he was nice and clean.
"Thank, Cranky Doodle," Spike said.
"Anytime, Spike," Cranky said getting back to work.
"That was awsome," Pipsqueak said giving him a high five.
"Thanks, but how long are college students staying here?" spike asked.
"About a week, they head home on Saturday," Rainbow Dash answered.
"Great!" Spike cried out disapointed. "I have to deal with a college girl who's already obsess with me and a person who I just met is bullying me like trash already is going to be here in a week!"
"Well, think of it this way," Pipsqueak points out. "Fleur De Lis will be all over you. I'm telling ya, Spike, you have swag written all over ya."
"Shut up! This is serious!"
School was over with. Spike walks out of school seeing two familiar college students. Spike looked over to the left as he kept walking and saw Fleur De Lis looking at him while twirling her hair as she bites her bottom lips. He then looks to his right seeing Garble with his friends giving him a death look on his face. Spike groaned and kept walking soon to be attacked by Pinkie.
"Hiya, Spike," Pinkie hugs him from behind.
"Hey, Pinkie," Spike accepted the hug. "How are ya?"
"Not so good," Pinkie said frowning.
"What happen?"
"You didn't hear? Fluttershy's animal shelter is tearing down."
"What!"
(At The Animal Shelter)
"Why is the animal shelter tearing down?" Spike asked Fluttershy.
Twilight and friends was visiting Fluttershy helping around the place. That and wanted to hear the news. Fluttershy was holding Angle in her arms feeding him a carrot.
"I don't know," Fluttershy paces around the place checking every animal. "Two men walks up to me saying that someone will own this land. Good thing is that it' sang option."
"An option?" Spike asked.
"Meaning that he or she will decide if they're taking the land or not," Twilight answered as she fed the birds.
"So it's a fifty fifty chance then," Spike continued. "Shouldn't you do something about this?"
"I would, but I don't know who's responsible of this," Fluttershy checked on the turtles.
"What are they going to do with this land anyway?" Rarity asked combing the cats.
"Yeah," Applejack said rounding up the horses. "What are they planning to do with this place?"
"They say that's football field is going to be built on top of the animal shelter," Fluttershy answered.
That's when it hit me. A football field. I could only think of someone who wanted to build a football field.
"Mr. Discord," Spike spoke.
"Why would Discord build a football field?" Rainbow Dash asked. She was resting on the grass with sunglasses on.
"It's this competition of those who get to be Vice Principal of Equestria High," Spike answered.
"Are you saying that Discord would be working with Celestia side by side together?" pinkie asked. She puts down the food supply and came over to Spike wanting to hear this.
"Only if he wins," Spike continued. "A did he does win then this place will be gone for good."
"But that' snot a problem, right?" Twilight said.
"Of course it's a problem," Applejack spoke. "He'll find a way to win just to become second boss of the school."
"What do we do?" Rarity said.
"The only thing we can do," Rainbow Dash said. "We pray to God that he doesn't win."
I saw Fluttershy teared up. That's never a good sign. The day was almost over thankfully. This day turned out to be terrible, but it was about to get worse for me.
At the orphanage when the night sky was clear, Spike was laying in bed in his room. He was thinking what tomorrow was going to be like. He didn't want to find out, but wanting to get prepared. Comet Strike came in running breathing heavily running out of air.
"Comet, what's wrong" Spike asked.
"Dude, you're not going to believe this," Comet said as he was catching his breath. "You're getting adopted."
"What!" Spike cried out getting out of bed.
"Our guardian said that you are getting adopted by Friday morning!"
"Are you sure she said that?" Spike panics.
"Sorry, man," Comet said patting his shoulder. "It was clear as day. They live in another state. You're moving to a new house in a new state with a new family.
"But what about my friends, the school, the animal shelter?" Spike said.
"Sorry, I wish we could do something. Just try to get some sleep tonight," Comet said getting into bed. "I'm gonna miss you, Spike. Let's make it last."
Spike sat in his bed gazing at the wall with a shocking expression. Either Spike was mad, or disappointed his day gotten worser.
Could this day get any worse for more? Yes. Discord is getting rid of Fluttershy's animal shelter, Garble might beat me up through out the week till I leave, and now I'm moving away. Away from town. The town where I have the only friends, the only great time I ever had, and now it's all going to be gone till Friday. This sucks.
(Tuesday)
Spike was sitting in class with his face still in shocked. He couldn't help but what's going to happen when he gets adopted and move away. Ms. Cheerilee notices Spike looking at the floor instead of her teaching. She walks up to Spike seeing him dozed off. She knocks on his desk making a Spike snap out of it.
"Spike, are you listening?" Ms. Cheerilee asked.
"I'm sorry, what was the question?" Spike rubs his eyes.
"Oh, sleeping during class are we?" Ms. Cheerilee crosses her arms. "Well in that case, I need you to do a 1,000 word essay from you."
"What!" Spike said.
"And for back talking me, you'll have to do it on paper."
Spike was about to say something else but Cheerliee stops him.
"Do you want to make it 2,000 words?" Spike sighed and gave up. "I want it done by Friday, Spike."
Spike lift his head back up and realizes he was leaving on that day.
Friday? This Friday? But that's the day I get adopted and move. So I had the wildest idea yet.
"Actually, Ms. Cheerilee," Spike spoke. "I would like a 2,000 word essay."
"Oh, do you?" Ms. Cheerilee said. "Alright, 2,000 words it is."
Spike was thinking of something else. Something he was going a little too far.
"Oh, so you can count," Spike taunted the teacher, making the class chuckled.
"Did I say 2,000? I mean 3,000 words, Spike!" Ms. Cheerliee said in a scary tone.
"3,000? Please," Spike shook his head like it was nothing. "You give your ex husbands a 3,000 word speech why you stay single."
The class couldn't helped but laughed.
"Better make that 5,000 word essay, Mr. Spike!" Ms. Cheerilee shouted.
"5,000! I think we can higher than that ladies and gentlemen!" Spike stood on top of his desk and created an auction in the classroom. "Do I hear 6,000? 6,000 from the crowd!"
"6,000!" one of the students cried out.
"6,000!" Spike points to the student. "Do I hear 7,000?"
"7,000!"
"8,000?"
"8,000!"
Spike! What has gotten in into you?" Ms. Cheerilee asked worried about Spike.
"You're annoying words. That what in me," Spike said back talking to her.
"That's it! I want 50,000 word essay!" Ms. Cheerilee finally said.
"50,000 is nothing, Teach," Spike said. "Because I won't be seeing you or this school ever again."
Spike jumps off his desk and onto another one. He jump desk to desk heading to the door.
"I'm out!" Spike said leaving the classroom. And walk down the hallway smiling.
Friday. So my day was turning into a good one. I have three full days here in school making things last. I could get away with anything. And that is when I have plans on what to do with my final week during lunch.
Lunchtime has arrived. Spike was sitting with his friends eating. They all notice Spike grinning as he ate.
"You seem happy today," Twilight said.
"What happen?" Fluttershy asked.
"I have to write an 50,000 word essay due on Friday," Spike said leaving the table quiet.
"No... Seriously," Applejack said.
Spike sighed. He wanted to tell them he was getting adopted. But the way he thinks of them reacting to that scares him.
"Guys, I have something to say," Spike said making everyone curious. "I'm... I'm... I'm moving out of town."
The whole table become loud asking questions everywhere. Except for Twilight, she knew Spike meant he was getting adopted. Rarity was bursting out tears, Pinkie was sad, Fluttershy was upset, the group was sad that Spike was moving. He didn't say he was getting adopted, but lie in a way where he told the truth.
"When are you leaving?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"This Friday," Spike said.
"What are we going to do in for three days?" Pinkie asked.
"Well..." Spike than notices someone yelling from the hallway.
The group rushes to see who it was. There was a huge crowd surrounding a glass case laughing. Spike pushes the crowd aside and saw Pipsqueak banging on the glass yelling to get out. He was locked in the glass case with the trophies and documents.
"Hold on buddy!" Spike said getting the glass door unlocked and let Pipsqueak out. "Deep breathes! Deep breathes!"
"What wrong with him?" Twilight asked helping him out.
"He's claustrophobic, give him room," Spike said.
"Didn't he got shoved in a locker once?"
"Only for a few second, if he stays in a small space too long he gets sick," Spike answered. "You okay, Pipsqueak?"
"Yeah... Just... Stand back," Pipsqueak said and they did. He threw his head down throwing up all over the floor.
Spike and Rainbow Dash quickly steps back away from"the vomit spreading. So did the students.
"Ah, that's better," Pipsqueak said smiling relief.
Spike saw Garble across the hallway laughing. His shirt had Pipsqueak's name on it. Garble shrugs as if he's saying Accidents happens.
"You know," Spike spoke still looking at Garble. "I think it's time for a meeting."
(Later that day after school)
Twilight and friends, Pipsqueak, and The Crusaders gathered at Twilight's house. They were in the living room talking as they wait for Spike.
"What do you think Spike send us here for a meeting?" Rarity asked.
"Maybe it's a top secret mission!" Applebloom guesses.
"I'm pretty sure it's something more important than that, Applebloom," Rainbow Dash said.
Applejack leans over to Twilight whispering to her.
"Did ya find out about Spike?" she whispered.
"I haven't gotten a call from him yet," Twilight answered.
"No, I mean about what he's hiding."
"Oh, uh," Twilight didn't wanted to say, she knew she had to wait. So she lied to her. "I haven't heard yet."
"Let me know okay," Applejack pat her shoulder.
"Sure," Twilight said as she hid her sad face away.
Spike arrives at the house. He walks to the center of the living room and began the meeting.
"Okay, you guys," Spike began talking. "Some of you are thinking what you're doing here."
"Yes," Scootaloo spike.
"Well I'm here to tell you of what I'm about to say, so I'll cut to the chase," Spike let the room silent for a moment. "We're gonna fight back."
"Fight back?" Rainbow Dash stood up surprised.
"Why?" Fluttershy asked.
"Fight back from who?" Pinkie cried out.
"I don't wanna fight anyone!" Pipsqueak panics.
"Please tell me we're not killing anyone," Sweetie Belle said.
"Calm down! Clam down, everyone!" Spike pleaded.
"Calm down?" Applejack said. "Spike, you're crazy."
"Am I, Applejack? Am I?!" Spike said.
"Wait, just who are we fighting with?" Twilight asked.
"We're fighting Garble," Spike answered.
"Garble? Spike, just because he messes with you and your friend doesn't mean you have to fight him for vengeance!" Rainbow Dash said.
"It's not just Garble, but Mr. Discord as well," Spike continued. "We have three days till I move, and I'm not leaving here with Discord building another football stadium over Fluttershy's animal shelter!"
"What do you have in mind exactly?" Rarity asked.
"As soon as everyone gets here we-"
"There still more coming?" Pipsqueak said.
"Two more," Spike said. "They should be here any moment."
There was a knock on the door. Spike hustles to the front door and opens it. There was Gilda and Comet Strike with a black eye standing in front of him.
"Comet Strike! What happen?" Spike cried out seeing his friend.
"I don't know?" Comet Strike enters the house, along with Gilda helping him sit down on a chair. "One moment I was walking through the neighborhood smelling the air, feeling the breeze, on a beautiful day. Next thing I knew 'BAM!', three seniors came up to me and telling me to stay off their turf. And that's when I saw stars, thinking it was nighttime all ready."
"Some gang called The Diamond Dogs did this to him," Gilda said as she notices Rainbow Dash. "Rainbow Dash! What's up!"
"Gilda!" Rainbow Dash gave her a knuckle bump. "Good to see you."
"You know Spike?"
"Sure do, he's my first friend he made."
Pipsqueak walks up to Comet Strike looking at him.
"Who are you?" Pipsqueak asked.
"Comet Strike. Spike's friend," Comet answered. "You?"
"Pipsqueak. Also Spike's friend," Pipsqueak answered.
"Nice to meet you."
"Same here."
They both shook hands.
"You know Spike?" Sweetie Belle asks Comet.
"Yeah, we're like neighbors," Comet said.
"LIKE neighbors?" Applejack asked thinking that's a weird answer.
Comet saw Spike behind her mouthing words saying She doesn't know yet! to him.
"I-I mean, we ARE neighbors," Comet answered. "I guess The Diamond Dogs hit me pretty good."
"See what I mean you guys!" Spike cried out getting everyone's attention. "This is what I'm talking about! These jerks think they're better than us! They think they can do whatever they want with us! Well I say no more!"
Spike stood up on the couch. Without noticing a big portrait of an American flag on it was hanging on a wall behind him.
"We need to show these assholes who they're messing with!" Spike continued. "You think Discord will take Fluttershy's land? You think that Garble will bully students whenever he wants? Do you think that The Diamond Dogs can get away with anything? No. They are people like us. They HAVE to have weaknesses. And they're going to pay for what they done to us."
"Geez, the mouth on this kid," Scootaloo whispered and was shushed by Rarity.
"We've been bullied, teased, pushed around, cheated on, and for what? Absolutely nothing. But now they have their reasons why they should punish us, because WE... We will punish them."
"Okay, so, how are we going to do that?" Gilda asked.
"Yeah, you finally got my attention little dude!" Rainbow Dash shouted.
"I'm in," Fluttershy said. "If you're planning to stop Mr. Discord then I'll help."
All of Spike's friends agrees on helping him fight back.
"Thanks, guys," Spike got down from the couch. "Here's the plan: Twilight I need you to search for Garble in his high school years for information."
"Right!" Twilight said heading upstairs getting her laptop.
"Rainbow Dash and Pipsqueak: you guys are going to help me take on Garble."
"Awesome!" Rainbow Dash said.
"Garble is going down," Pipsqueak said.
"Gilda and Comet Strike: we're going to find a way to on how we'll deal with The Diamond Dogs. And as for the rest of you guys: we'll figure out a plan on how to stop Discord from becoming a Vice Principal. We have till Thursday."
"Okay, I'll help you fight back and all, on one conduction though," Gilda spoke.
"If its money you want, I'm broke,"'Spike said thinking she was going to ask for money.
"I want you to kiss from you," Gilda said pointing at her lips.
Spike blushes and the girls was dropping jaws.
"You can't be serious!" Applejack yelled at her. "He's only ten!"
"Relax, cowgirl," Gilda taps her hat down. "It's just on the cheek, nowhere else."
"Spike would not do such a thing!" Rarity said crossing her arms.
"I'll do it," Spike said.
"YOU WILL?!" The girls and his two guy friends yelled.
"Sure, if this is the only way she'll help us, then I'll do it," Spike offers the kiss.
"That lucky bastard," Comet whispered.
"You should've seen him on his first day here," Pipsqueak whispered to Comet.
"Plant one right here, lover boy," Gilda said tapping on her cheek.
Spike gave himself a second. He then slowly leans forward with his lips puckered. The girls watches him angrily. As Spike got to an inch closer to her cheek, she quickly turns her head and kissed Spike on the lips. Spikes turn pure red with his eyes wide open. The girls jaws dropped down all the way to the floor. Their heart sunk as they watch the two kissing. Twilight came back holding the laptop in her hand with Garble's info.
"Okay, Spike, I-" she drops the laptop with her jaws dropped seeing Spike and Gilda kissed.
Gilda stops kissing Spike and left him there dizzy seeing his eyes spin like crazy. His face was still red and froze like a statue.
"What the hell was that!" Rainbow Dash yelled at Gilda.
"What? Are you jealous that I kissed him first and you didn't," Gilda teased her.
"Who wants to kiss a ten year old!" Rainbow Dash cried out.
"Fine, but just to let you know... He's a good kisser."
She winks at her and watches Rainbow Dash burst into flames.
After a while after that kissing scene, Spike and Twilight looks through Garble's info. There was a photo of him flipping the camera off but it was blurred out.
"Is there any weak points he have?" Spike asked. "Like bone fractures, ex girlfriend, fears?"
"Well, there is this, one fear," Twilight said chilling a bit. "Uh, heh, but uh, you'll get a kick out of this."
"What's his deepest fear, Twilight?" Spike demanded.
Twilight pull up Garble's other info talking about himself. Spike scans through his info and stops. Spike wanted to say something, but instead he tilted his head. He kept choking the words trying to say something but couldn't help but stare at the screen.
"Seriously?" Spike said as he kept looking at Twilight and the screen back and forth. "Se-Seriously?"
"Yeah," Twilight smiled.
"Okay, now my next question is, who will he bully tomorrow?"
"I'll get onto to that," Twilight continued searching through Garble's files.
"Okay guys," Spike stood up getting everyone's attention. "Here's the plan..."
(Wednesday)
Spike and the gang all gathered at the front of the school. School hadn't started yet. In one minute the school bell would ring.
"Okay, does everyone know what to do," Spike said to them. "If we have to make changes we can call each other."
"So this is it huh?" Pipsqueak said. "No turning back."
"If we screw this up, we're dead," Rarity said.
"Don't worry, guys, I know Spike so long he never failed anyone," Comet Strike said.
"This is going on my permanent record," Twilight said.
"Hands in," Spike said.
The trouble makers put they;re hands in and began their plan.
This was the week I would never forget. Because on that day was my favorite school day. This time... it's personal.
