//------------------------------// // Chapter 10 // Story: The Beauty of a Form // by hcnation123 //------------------------------// Spike ran frantically in search of Photo Finish through the crowds of creatures,'Oh please Celestia don't scare this one.' he thought as he saw where he last put her down. 'Great she's gone where could she be!?' Meanwhile, sitting in Sugar Cube Corner Photo Finish was a nervous wreck, cause you normally don't have the ruler of a nation sitting in front of you asking very personal questions about your newest love life. She had just got regained control of her legs, a little after Pixel Pizzazz had left to keep her own agenda, and came here to get a treat cause she was feeling a bit hungry. You could say she got way more than she bargained for. "Have you two, done it yet?" Princes Celestia asked a madly blushing Photo Finish. 'Oh please someone save me from this torture!' she thought as she shook with embarrassment at the asked question, "Uhhh, Princess, I do believe that is a bit too personal of a question." she said hurriedly. 'I just love to see them squirm sometime.' she thought, "Oh, I'm sorry for intruding to much, I just want to keep my Spike safe. He may be as tall as Luna on 2 legs but he will always be my little dragon." she said taking a piece of the cake she had before her. "Now, answer the question." she said losing her peaceful tone for a mor forcful one "Yes, multiple times in just the last 24 hours." she said in a quick tone to hear a light laughing in front of her. 'Wait, what is..' she was interrupted by another question. "Ok, now, how was he?" Celestia said stifling a laugh. "The best that any mare has ever expierienced, in fact, it couldn't all fit in, I just began getting feeling my legs again." Photo said her whole body red to a now loud laughing Celestia "DISCORD!!!!" yelled Spike with a voice of authority at the God of Chaos who turned to normal still laughing. "Oh, Spike I am terribly sorry but, this is just information that I just had to know!" he said still smiling "How did you know it was me?" "Your tail was flickering." Spike told him as he walked to a Photo Finish who was shaking in rage. \ "YOU...nicht gut Hurensohn , ich werde dich töten!!!!!" Photo screamed and jumped over the table to be caught by Spike and pulled out of the restaurant by Spike still screaming obscenities at a stunned Discord. Translation: no good son of a bitch i will kill you. "Photo." she was still screaming "Photo." same result,"Anja." that got her quiet. "Ha, knew that would work." "Don't call me by my middle name." "Why don't you sto..." his mouth was covered by hers in a passionate kiss. "That did the trick." she said with small triumph in her voice. "Spike, I have to tell you something." she said a little saddened. "What would that be?" "I have to leave tomorrow. she gave in a slight whisper, a bit down trotted. "I don't want to, I met my soulmate here, I don't want to leave." she said as a few tears escaped her eyes. "Oh, I knew that you would have to at sometime." he said sadly "Why?" he asked wiping the tears from her eyes. "It will be fashion week in Manehattan in a few days." she said looking up to him. "Photo." "Yes?" "Will you come back?" he said looking at her. " I most likely will, but, it will be 2 weeks at the least, a month at the most." "Come back to me, ok?" "I will, you can bet on that." she said going up to him and planting a searing hot kiss on his lips, "I love you." "I love you too." "Good,cause you still owe me a bear mister." "Oh hush it was an accident that i lost it anyway." he said walking back to the festival games with her walking beside him. "But I like that bear, his name was Bearson." "Bearson?" "I just sort of gave it to him." "Oh, ok." "Welcome to Pinkie Pies Pie Chunks!!!" he heard a high voice scream next to him with a familiar curly mane in his face. "Spike, would you like to step to the challenge?" "Uhhh, sure, what would I win?" "You would win, the humungo bear!!" she said pulling a curtain to let him see a stuffed bear his size. "and all you have to do is eat 5 pies faster than me." she said with a smile. "Sounds easy enough." "Take a seat, cause you just sealed your fate." she said sitting at a table covered with pies. Spike took a seat next to her, "Photo will you do the honors? "Sure, ready, set, go" They started eating the pies at breakneck speeds with ferocity in each bite and bits of crumbs flying, Spike slightly behind by one pie til Spike got an idea. He picked up the table and tilted it so every pie slid in his mouth and he chewed then swallowed them whole. "I win!" he said with a huge grin on his face. "Wow! I thought I had you there for a second! Now, claim your prize!" she said happily tone. He picked up the bear and went to Photo, "How about this, this good enough?" "Oh, it is beyond good enough." "Good, cause my stomach is killing me." They started walking and there was a loud rumble from Spikes stomach and he groaned. "Yup, over did it." "Are you ok?" "Yea i .. " he was interrupted by a gurgle from his stomach, "No, heading back to the castle, stomach hurts." "Okay, lets go." they started walking to the castle when Spike said. "You don't have to leave if you don't want to." "No I am coming, still a bit mad, that and I love sleeping on you, you are very warm." she said blushhing as they reached the castle doors. "Lady first." Spike said holding the door open. "Why thank you." she said going through. "Coming?" "Yea, but first lets find the Pepto." his stomach gurgled again, "Fast." Spike walked through the door, and that was the last anyone saw them over the next few hours.
