Three Heroes: Part 1 Hero of Harmony

by Omega C

A Hero but not a HERO faction one

“This is it,” Spike said to himself with excitement. After rushing through Ponyville. He made it to his destination. One of the Elemental HERO’s Bases across Equestria. A man left looking dejected earlier. Meaning he didn’t qualify. “After wait for two hours…it’s finally my turn.” He dashed right up to meet the proctor of the examination Elemental Hero Avian. “Hi. I’m Spike and I’m here to join the Elemental Heroes” Avian looked at Spike and paused for a moment

‘He’s here. Just as he said he would be…’ Avian looked Spike with a solemn “Sorry kid but I can’t let you in our faction.” Spike looked at him with a devastated look “You see I would LOVE to let you but…Someone with higher authority than me told me to direct you to the Magician Faction for your ‘training’…” Spike looked terrified. “But I am not going to do that. One, It goes against my code and two, you are obviously not interested.” Spike nodded at this “So just go home…but before you go, I think you might need this in the future” Avian gave Spike what looked like a scroll.

“What-” Spike was about to accuse Avian of trying to change his mind about not being a spell caster

“It contains a move called ‘Dragonic Attack’. Sparkman found it one day during patrol and it has a symbol that looks similar to that symbol on your necklace.” Avian explained “I think it’s meant to be yours” Spike looked extremely joyful about this “BUT use it carefully from what I researched this technique can do…it’s breathtaking” Avian warned. Spike nodded and made way home.

“Dragonic Attack…Why does that sound familiar?” He shrugged “Oh well…At least I won’t return home empty handed.” However, when he was near Sugar Cube Corner. He saw an all too familiar face. Elymas the Dark Magician so happened to be near the entrance waiting for him along with several members of his faction. Spike really did not want to deal with them right now, he just wants to go home and ask Twilight about the scroll. So he tried to dash past them before they could even notice him…but as fate would have it that was not gonna happen. As he ran one of the magicians, a girl that looked like one of the Magician Girls but wearing armor; used a levitation spell to prevent him from going any farther. “Aww man.” He groaned. As Elymas walked towards him, he nodded towards the Magician Girl and he was back on the ground albeit on his butt.

“Why are you in such a hurry?” Elymas asked then he notices spike cradling a scroll. “What’s this?” Before could protest the magician took the scroll from his grasp.

“HEY!”

“Hmm…Why do you have this? This is an ability for warriors not spell casters.”

“Seriously the sooner you accept that you’re a spell user the better!” a child version of the Dark Magician, called Card Flipper, yelled. Spike paid no attention to him as he picked himself up jumped up and snatched the scroll back.

“If I said once I’ll say it again NOT INTERESTED!” Spike yelled. “Look I am flattered really but here’s the thing. I have no desire to learn magic nor do I have any magic. I am not a magic user...you want Starlight Glimmer or Shining Armor not me" Spike said with finality “Now if you’ll excuse me I need Twilight to look at this.” he left, moving a bit fast than before.

“I don’t understand him.” A younger Dark Magician Girl, Called Card Ejector, Complained. “Why is he so stubborn?”

“I don’t know but he’ll change his mind don’t worry.” Dark Magician said to the little girl. “Now I Believed I promised you Ice Cream kids.” The two children rushed into the store “Ahh to be young again.”

Back at the Friendship Castle, Spike enter his home to see Twilight reading. “I’m Home!” Twilight smiled

“So how’d it go….What’s that?”

“A scroll that Avian gave me. I don’t what it is but I decided to bring it here maybe you and I could decipher it somehow?” He laughed after he said because Twilight teleported for a few second and came back with encyclopedia of different languages, a note bad, a quill pen, a pencil, a ballpoint pen, and a scroll of her own

“When do we start?” Twilight was absolutely giddy about this and could wait to decipher and record what the scroll said

“Right now.” Spike said with determination.

“Very well let’s begin!” Twilight carefully unraveled the scroll then frowned “On no…it’s written in Draconic…I don’t have an encyclopedia of that language yet…Spike, maybe you can read it.” Spike Shrugged and took the scroll in his hands. His face shifted to a confused one. “Well?”

“Okay I am not kidding when I say this but it says ‘Oh Hero of Harmony. Fueled by the power of the dragon, rejoice as your days as a mere warrior are over….Embrace the power deep inside and awaken to the dragon…Say these words to unleash it and fulfill your part as the chosen one Hermos, ‘I am the Hero of Harmony. Hear my voice for I have accepted the task of protecting my home, my friends, my family, my love. I vow to wield the of crimsoned eyed ones and slay all evil’?” Before anything else could be said something happened, something Incredible. While Twilight kept recording and orb of light appeared before them. The Sound of roars and battle cries could be heard and a voice echoed from the orb.

“At long last. The first Hero has been found.” It spoke. Spike backed up a little bit, while Twilight stood before him ready to fight. “Fret not, hatchling. I am Hermos, the dragon of weapons.” Twilight had concerns about angering this being, but she wanted answers

“Why are you here…and why do have the title of dragon of weapons” Hermos sighed

"The warrior who fought alongside me to imprison the True King Dragons, had very little weapons but had the power smite a whole army with one swing of his sword. So I forged him weapons from creatures that had died infusing it with their power. However, there is one that I pride on creating. A sword that grew in power with every dragon it killed…but after the battle the warrior was critically injured…however, something miraculous happened. The sword I forged apparent still had the spirit of the creature that used to forge it…a red eyes black dragon. Before the dragon passed on, it used what remained of its power to transform the warrior into a dragonman from then on he was known as Lord of the Red.” Hermos explained “as For why I am here well Twilight…only warriors can become Dragonmen and the hatchling” Refering to Spike “Was deemed worthy of being my chosen one….now I can’t just give him all the weapons I have forged yet…but I can do something just as good…Spike, I can sense that in your memories you felt useless in the past yes?” Spike nodded “Not for just the girls but also Shining and Flash, correct?” again Spike nodded this time albeit much more slowly “Well no more! I will grant a technique that has been by dragon to human for many years…because of this it has when from a mere attack to a martial art…I Grant you DRAGONIC ATTACK, now Known as, DRAGON’S FURY!!” an Aura emerges from the orb and flew into Spike which manifests itself as an oriental dragon. “That’s not all. I will also give you my pride and joy. The weapon that I created that created Lord of the Red. I named after the dragon that did this, behold! THE RED EYES DRAGON SWORD!!!” the sword flew out of the orb and was jammed into the ground. “My time here almost up…now listen. This all I can give you, for now …if you want all the power as the Hero of Harmony then you need to the find item that represents me. A clawed gauntlet…The Claw of Hermos…” He paused “I sense that you already know where it is. But its true power can only be obtained when you mastered the faction that aligned itself to me. Good luck…Spike the Hero of Harmony” The orb flew through the window into the horizon. Spike glanced at the sword and picked it up...hearing a snarl coming from it. he gave it a few practice swings before slinging on his back with a smile. He got into a Taekwondo fighting stance. His hand began glowing. He began throwing a few punch and kicks. before he focused the energy within him and began manifest itself on his fist. Eventually, it became a Dragon made of aura. Spike opened his hand and thrust his palm out
"DRAGONIC ATTACK!!!" The aura dragon flew from his hands and rammed into a wall. "Cool..." He murmured.
