THE WRATH OF A DRAGON

Spike was running towards the screams hoping that Scootaloo was okay

"I have to help her" he thought as he ran to her aid when he got there what he made him feel several emotions all at once shock fear confusion but the strongest of them all was pure unadulterated rage the scene was a two toned gray colt which he guessed was this rumble he was standing over Scootaloo she was bruised and her main was a mess with her coat covered in dirt rumble looked down at her with an amused look in his eyes he "listen you chicken you are mine you will do what I say you"

"No rumble I'm not yours I will never be yours!!!" when she finished he slapped her with his hooves

"Why is it because of that pathetic dragon?"

"What? Scootaloo likes me I didn't know-" his thoughts were interrupted by all too familiar voice "of course she does but that doesn't matter are going just let that asshole beat on one of your mate's"

"What Scootaloo isn't my mate besides how I am supposed to help her, I’m not a fighter."

"Wrong we can help her I can help you fight him and help you claim your first mate" instinct said spike was about to rebuttal that is until he heard what rumble said next me him stop and look at rumble from around tree he was hiding behind "he doesn't care for you he nothing more than princess twilight's and that mare rarity's little bitch he’s such a love sick puppy he will never love a ugly flightless chicken like you-"

Rumble never got to finish he was soon sent flying from a kick to the side of his face Scootaloo looked too see who had saved her eye's displayed only shock at what she saw "s...Spike?"

There standing in between her and the fallen rumble was spike he then turned his head and spoke to her  "Don't worry Scootaloo I'll protect you and I will make sure he will pay for what he's done to you"

she could feel the hatred exuding from his voice " I never heard him speak like that what was it that made spike like this was it what rumble said or was it seeing me like this made spike like this was it what rumble said or was it seeing me like this" were thoughts of the scared filly looking at her savior

Rumble then got back up his cheek now bearing a purple bruise "what the hell?"

He said in a confused but angered tone he then looked over and saw the cause of his bruised face and ego "oh look it's the walking fax machine"

Spike turned his head back to rumble any insults the colt had where quickly washed away by the sense of fear that gripped his heart the look spike gave him was terrifying his eyes were like that of a feral beast staring at its prey he was growling lowly the slits that were his pupils had turned completely white they were practically glowing in the shadows caused by the apple trees "wait a minute"

Rumble thought to himself "this the princess's pet dragon he's a pathetic little weakling he doesn't have the gall to fight me"

Shaking his head rumble glared back at the drake "nice trick spike but it's not going to work on me I know you don’t have courage to fight me but I tell you what I'd be willing to let it go if you leave me to my business with my insolent mare"

Spikes growling only grew louder "she doesn't belong to you and I will show you I am not to be underestimated"

Spike’s voice sounded slightly distorted like two voices where speaking at once "fine then have it your way you overgrown iguana"

And with that two charged at each other spike clenched his claw into a fist and raised it. Rumble with his wings elevating him raised his fore hoof to strike the dragon when they met both their strikes struck each other's faces seemingly ending in a draw. That is until rumbles hoof chipped and he pulled away now with two bruised cheeks and a chipped hoof now holding his injured hoof he looked to see if he had injured spike, "What in Celestia’s mane? !?!"

What he saw horrified him to his core part of spikes face had changed starting from his left eye and ending at the top of snout and his first spine had turned black his eye turning into a glowing pool of white with a strip of white traveling down his cheek and to the top of his brow the spine had become more angular and sharp the top of it tinted a dark purple he was breathing heavily with small green and purple flames escaping from his mouth and growling with each exhale "what's happening to him".

Thought Scootaloo in fear but she also felt something else while looking at spike she couldn't explain it but spike's thought were anything but fear he didn't know what was happening to him why he felt stronger and he didn't care all he knew was that he was going to make rumble pay for hurting Scootaloo and that he was going to enjoy it

"Together"

"Together"

"We"

"We"

"Shall"

"Shall"

"Make"

"Make"

"Him"

"Him"

"PPPAAAYYY!!!!!!"

Spike then raised his right claw and pulled back dark wavering energy started to gather around his claw "listen here you Lizard your tricks aren't going to work on-" Rumble was interrupted by spike slashing his claw forward a larger black claw came shooting out of his hand rumble narrowly dodged it but it brushed past his left wing singing the tips of his grey feathers turning them black and sending waves of pain into his wing he then looked back to see spike was gone before he could he even react he was grabbed by his face and was raised into the air and then thrown with great force against a nearby apple tree he was then kicked in the stomach the wood splintered causing him to sink into the tree the scream of pain and the coughing of his blood caused his attacker to feel some sense of joy but that was buried deeply under all the anger and hate he felt towards the colt

Rumble with eyes the size of dinner plates look towards the dragon that mere moments ago he was mocking now stood before him with his leg keeping him pinned in the trunk of the tree that black substance now covering the entire left side of his face.

his left eye was nothing more the a pool of glowing white hatred his right eye was still had the green pupil of his but now it had a glowing white slit and glowing white streaks going through the pool of emerald all of the spines on his head were now all pure black with edges of purple the shape of razors "that was for insulting me and Scootaloo."

Spike then removed his leg and grabbed rumble by his main and pulled him from the trunk his back was covered in splinters and cuts "this is for hurting my Scootaloo."

Spike then threw him into the air only to elbow him in his back and to knee him in jaw he spun around and delivered a kick to rumbles barrel sending him flying backwards then all of spikes body was engulfed by the same wavering energy and he sinked into the ground only to then he pop out of it right behind rumble and grab him by his throat and slam him to the ground face first "and let me make this clear for you she does not belong to you and I am not that bitch twilight's or that whore rarity's pet"

He then kicked rumble over so that he was now lying on his back he and stomped his foot on rumbles ribs and raised his claw forming an arrow shape with his claws "now I am going to make sure  YOU NEVER HURT HER AGAIN!!!!!!"
