Born of Rock

by KidatHeart5

Three Months Later

It had been three months since the Mane Six and Spike took Gem back to the Pie rock farm. She still had to get used to her surroundings, so Spike and Pinkie opted to stay on the farm until Gem was comfortable there. Rarity and the others had to manage the Spring Palooza without Pinkie, but thankfully, the festival was a major success.

Three months after Pinkie and Spike came back from the rock farm, the ponies and dragon were returning there once more to check up on Gem and the Pie family. When they arrived, they saw a crowd of ponies at the rock farm.

Pinkie exclaimed, “Wow! Business is really booming!”

Limestone then came up to them and said, “And it’s all thanks to Gem. And you guys, of course, since you brought her back.”

Twilight asked, “Does Gem like it here?”

Limestone answered, “Yep. She’s bonded with Marble and now those two are best friends. Besides, it’s gotten Marble out of her shell a bit.”

The ponies looked to see Marble Pie petting Gem in a fenced-in area. Several other ponies lined up at the fence to see Gem. Marble said to Gem, “You’re such a good dragon, Gem. Yes, you are. Yes, you are.” She then told the ponies at the fence, “Don’t get too close to her. She doesn’t like that.”

Twilight said, “I’m glad for both Gem and Marble. This is great for them.”

Maud then came up to them with a bowl full of stones, chunks of rock, and bits of gems. She said in her usual deadpan tone, “It’s feeding time. This is Gem’s favorite meal. Spike, would you like to feed her?”

Spike grabbed the bowl and said, “Oh, thanks, Maud.” As he walked up to the fence, he waved and said, “Hi, Gem.” When Gem saw him, she rushed to the fence and licked him. He chuckled, “Okay, okay! I get it. You missed me.” He stroked her head and said, “I missed you, too.”

He then grabbed a handful of rocky clump decorated with gems and said, “Here you go.”

Just then, Gem clamped her toothless mouth on Spike’s arm, albeit on accident, and chewed on the clump he had held in his claw. Spike chuckled, “It’s a good thing she hasn’t teethed yet. Otherwise, this wouldn’t be so cute.”

The ponies all laughed at this.

Dawww such cute two ending chapters
Gem the stone dragon is so precious, and her relationship with Spike & Marble & Maud is soooo precious
Also love her blue eyes and her lava breath
Wow, those Film Flam brothers didn't put much of a fight did they That's probably my only complaint, I felt like Film and Flam would put up little bit more of a fight. Also felt like it could have been little longer story, but its still great as a short story too But overall, a super cute and sweet and fun story Best of luck to you in the contest!:D

Let's just say they're not the type of ponies who'd get their hooves dirty.
