How to train a Baby Dragon

Chapter Six: Spike and Rarity

As Twilight was running back to Fluttershy’s cottage, Spike was now waddling down a road in Ponyville without a care in the world. His overalls were slight dirty, with dust now on them and his tail wagged behind him, as it was held high and keeping his balance. The baby dragon didn't notice, but he had already soaked his diaper, and the padding squished with each step. His eyes were aglow with awe.

What Spike also didn’t realize, was that Mrs. Cake strolling down the street with a basket in her hooves, filled with baking supplies. She spotted the baby dragon waddling idly in his adorable buttoned up overalls, and his diaper bulge clearly showing. The mare blushed and whispered in awe. “Is that a baby dragon still in diapers?”

Spike didn't notice as he waddled straight into the mare, who stopped him right in his tracks. He looked up to see Mrs. Cake smiling down at him. “Hello sweetie.”

Spike gurgled, and waddled over as he squealed. “Hi, my name is Spikey.”

Mrs. Cake giggled, leaning down next to the baby dragon, and giving his diaper a pat (feeling how soggy it was). “Hello, Spike. Aren't you too young to be out by yourself if you’re in diapers?”

Spike, with drool coming down his chin, explained. “I looking’ fow a bunny, he hopped ova hewe.”

Mrs. Cake dawwed at him and cooed. “Did he now?” She bent down and helped brush some of the dirt from her overalls, and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief. “Well, let me clean you up real fast, sweetie,” Spike blushed and let Mrs. Cake clean him up. Then she pulled back and admired the little dragon, as she then cooed. “Alright, sweetie, let’s go find your bunny.”

They waddled off down the road, and soon found Angel still hopping along. Spike started waddling even faster towards Angel, and he picked up speed. The baby dragon was determined so he waddled even faster, shouting. “I'm going to get you, bunny!”

Mrs. Cake ran after the two, panting heavily! “Spike, get back here!”

But Spike just gurgled, waddling even faster down the road with a determined look on his face. “I’m going to get that fluffy bunny!” He thought to himself. It was all that occuped his mind.

Twilight was still running towards Fluttershy’s cottage, stopping only on occasion to catch her breath. Gasping, she burst through the front door and into Fluttershy’s cottage, shouting! “Fluttershy, where’s Spike?! It’s urgent!”

The pegasus woke up and gasped in horror, as she realized Spike was no longer in her lap! She started to frantically search her cottage while shouting. “Spike?! Where are you?!”

After only a few moments of frantic searching, Fluttershy came back to the living room and nervously confessed to Twilight. “Oh, Twilight, I’m so sorry! I gave him a bottle and was feeding him, but I got up early to feed the baby bunnies this morning, I must've dozed off!”

Twilight looked towards the doorway with fear on her face! If Spike was out there in his current state, there was no telling what kind of trouble he’d gotten into. “We need to find him, now!” She said frantically! “He couldn’t have gotten far in that diaper/overalls combination! I know now why Spike and I were acting weird earlier! I’ll tell you all about it while we’re looking for him.”

Fluttershy whispered. “Thanks, Twilight, but I still feel bad for sleeping on the job like that. I should’ve known better.”

Twilight put a hoof on her pegaus’ friend’s back. “It’s okay, Fluttershy, I know you didn’t do it on purpose. Now come on, we need to get going and find Spike before it’s too late!”

Fluttershy gave another nod and the two friends took off down the road together! Luckily, Spike had left a trail of clawprints for them to follow.

Spike was still waddling down the road after Angel, trying to catch that sneaky little bunny, who thought he could hide among the crowds of ponies all busy shopping at the market. However, he didn’t notice the gentle hissing sound, and the strange warm sensation now enveloping his crotch. Eventually, his diaper started to bulge, and his button crotch on his overalls snapped as the diaper burst through the fabric. The little baby dragon accidently stumbled right into a mare’s leg, and plopped right onto his padded bottom with a loud squish.

Spike groaned, rubbing his head as he thought. “What in the hay is going on? Why does my bottom feel all wet?” He then looked around and saw ponies staring at him. Some were wide eyed, unsure of what they were seeing, while others were smiling and dawwing at him. The baby dragon just gave the crowd a confused look and asked. “What are you all staring at?” But only baby babble came out, and the crowd all dawwed. This made Spike squeak and jump up, only to hear a loud plop, and watch as his soggy diaper plopped right between his legs, with the open button flaps of his overalls flapping in the wind!

Spike was stunned at what he saw, and whimpered as he tried buttoning his flaps, but his claws get fumbling as he lost his balance, and sat down back on his rump. Some of the ponies whispered, and he started tearing up. “What’s going on?! Why am I wearing a diaper?! Where’s Twilight?!” He thought to himself. Then he couldn’t hold it in anymore, and began wailing.

The ponies all gasped, unsure of what to do, when out of nowhere, Rarity came upon the scene. With a stunned gaze, she thought. “What in the hay is Spike doing here by himself? I thought Twilight said he couldn’t be left alone? I know I certainly never let Sweetie Belle out of my sight when she was a baby.” She then bent down to look at Spike’s face, covered in tears and snot. She softly cooed. “Hello, darling, are you looking for Twilight?”

Spike looked up at his crush with a big, goofy smile. “Yes, Rarity, can you please help me find Twilight?” But instead of words, he babbled loudly and spat in Rarity’s face. She immediately squeaked, and tried wiping the spit off her cheek!

Just then, Mrs. Cake ran through the parting crowd, sighing in relief upon seeing Spike plopped on the ground and giggling, as Rarity was busy wiping her face. Mrs. Cake bent down and gave Spike a big hug. “There you are. Oh, you had me very worried, little one.”

Spike just hugged Rarity, and she held him close to her chest as he clutched her fur and whimpered. “Rarity, I’m so happy to see you.” Yet again, only incoherent babble came out.

Rarity blushed, then smoothed his scales out with a hoof and cooed. “It’s alright, darling, I'm here.” She then took the soggy dragon by the claw, and helped him up.

Mrs. Cake asked. “So, Rarity, you got things from here, I assume? I wish I could stay and help, but I really need to get back to Sugarcube Corner.”

Rarity sighed, rubbing a hoof down her back. “I guess so, more or less. I better watch him until I can find Twilight,” She then peered down to see Spike’s diaper sagging and could only groan at the idea of changing a used diaper. “Even if it's uncouth, I simply can’t leave Spike in a soggy diaper. A diaper rash on top of everything else will be even worse.” She thought, then casually cooed. “Come on, my dear Spikey-Wikey, I better get that wet diapee off you.” Even as she shivered at the thought.

Spike groaned and looked down as he toddled along. But Mrs. Cake just dawwed. “Aww that’s so cute, and I would’ve loved caring for that cute baby dragon. It makes me wonder if I’ll ever have foals of my own?” She thought.

Rarity took spike down the road, and went to the local supermarket, for it was the closest building that she knew had public restrooms and changing tables. The baby dragon just toddled along blushing at all the glances he got from the ponies that passed by, then he briefly tried pulling a flap down. Rarity sighed, and stooped down and buttoned the button hatch while cooing. “There, now ponies won't see your wet diaper. “

Spike just gave a pout. “Ugh, why can’t I do anything?! I'm not a hatchling!” He thought, and grumbled as Rarity took him to the baby section of the store. She went down the aisle picking up two whole packages of diapers, then she grabbed some wipes and powder, and went up to the cashier who dawwed. “Aww, so who’s the little guy? I don’t think i've seen him around town before.”

Rarity waved a hoof and cooed. “Oh, little Spikey-Wikey here is new to Ponyville, darling. He’s a baby dragon. And I’m foalsitting him while we look for his mommy.”

As the cashier tagged the items, and punched the numbers into the typewriter, she cooed. “Oh, that’s adorable. I'm sure he’ll love Ponyville. And it will be super cute if he eventually becomes one of Cheerilee's students.”

Spike stomped his feet and whined. “I'm not a baby dragon!” But to the ponies, it just sounded like he was throwing a tantrum.

The cashier giggled. “Oh dear, he’s quite fussy. I think it’s time for his nap.”

Rarity gave Spike a worried look. “I suppose so, but he currently has a soggy diaper that I need to get changed. You do have changing tables in the mare’s room, right?”

The cashier nodded, as gave Rarity the diaper bag. “Sure, they’re right next to the checkout counter. The mare’s room is on your right.”

Spike sat on his padded rump with a humph, refusing to budge. Rarity came up to him with a scowl. “Spikey-Wikey, you get over here right this instance so I can change your soggy butt! You have until the count of three!”

Spike shook his head and Rarity started counting. “One….two…”

Spike groaned, getting up and waddling over to Rarity, who carried him to the mare’s bathroom, and laid him down gently on the changing table. She was still eyeing the yellow, soggy diaper that now lay before her, and she could only gulp and whisper. “Now hold still. This will be over in a second.” But she was screaming in her mind. “I can’t believe I'm actually doing this! So uncouth! But I can’t leave my darling Spikey-Wikey in this soggy thing any longer! I just have to hope he doesn’t try to do the other thing in them!”

Spike just groaned, thinking in his mind. “I can’t believe this is happening, it's beyond humiliating! Now Rarity is going to think I’m a baby forever!”

Fluttershy and Twilight were still running down the road, before they had the good fortune to meet up with Mrs. Cake, who was humming a little tune to herself. Twilight immediately asked. “Hello, Mrs. Cake. By any chance, have you seen a purple coated dragon with green scales, and in overalls?”

Mrs. Cake looked up at Twilight and cooed. “Oh, you mean Spike? No need to worry about that soggy baby dragon, Rarity took him to the supermarket to buy foal changing supplies.”

Fluttershy gasped and asked in a worried tone. “Oh the poor thing. Is he alright? Did he get hurt?”

Mrs. Cake shook her head and explained. “He’s just fine. Rarity has the little cutie, and I believe she took him to change his diaper.”

Twilight squeaked in delight! “Thanks so much, Mrs. Cake! Come on, Fluttershy!”

Twilight and Fluttershy then rushed down the road to the supermarket, and burst through the front doors (and into the mare’s bathroom) to see Rarity sweating while trying to change Spike’s diaper. Twilight couldn’t help but burst into laughter, and Fluttershy just dropped her mouth open in complete awe.

Rarity looked up with sweat pouring down her forehead. She gave a sigh of relief when she spotted Twilight and Fluttershy. “Thank Celestia you're here, Twilight! Can you please do this for me?!”

Fluttershy couldn't help but daww. “Oh, Rarity, how about you finish the change? You're doing so well.”

Twilight chuckled, and encouraged. ”Yeah, Rarity, I think you’re doing a great job already.”

Rarity scowled, briefly putting her hooves on her hips. “Ha ha, very funny. You owe me big time for this, Twilight! These fine hooves shouldn’t be touching used diapers, let alone changing them!”

Twilight then came over and started wiping down Spike while cooing. “Aww, did my little Spikey Wikey wet himself.”

Spike babbled angrily, making Fluttershy gasp. “Oh dear, did he lose the ability to talk somehow?”

Rarity eyed the two mares and asked. “Wait, what’s going on here? I thought Spike was just a baby dragon in diapers?”

While Twilight was finishing up the diaper change she replied. “I'll explain everything later, for now we need to get Spike back to the Golden Oaks Library.” Rarity and Fluttershy shrugged, and once both Twilight and Rarity had washed their hooves, they walked back to the library along with Fluttershy.

Spike waddled away, with his nice clean diaper making loud crinkling noises and he could only worry, as he thought. “Even if Twilight can fix this, I'll be a laughing stock! I’ll be forever known as Spike the Diapered Baby Dragon! And Rarity won’t want anything to do with me after she had to change my diaper!”

For someone who detests diaper changing and anything foal related, Rarity certainly did a good job taking care of Spike for the brief time he was in her custody.

It's always great to see new chapters in this story. Points for keeping us on the edge of our seat in how Twilight figured everything out. So many moments were like, "And she's going to start explaining..." but it never happened. Nice retention of suspense as we got to watch Rarity do all she could to be a caring friend while avoiding the icky task of changing an overly saturated diaper.

What's really interesting is how the effects of the bonnet and pacifier on Spike are still increasing. Hopefully Twilight can solve everything before matters could become non-reversible.

Great chapter and a happy read for the day. :)
