Spike has hit his growth spurt making him happier than ever before... for about two weeks before he realized he was still the same, just taller and lanky. He still makes most of the chores around the castle, takes notes, reads comics, runs errands around town, and helps his friends whenever he can.

He's the same dragon he was before. The same coloration. The same appetites. The same hobbies. The same likings. The same fears.

The same weakling.

The same coward.

The same Spike.

He decides it's time for that change once and for all. And he knows exactly who to go to for that.

*Other Tag is there due to the sheer amount of other characters that are involved in the story*

Hm... interesting so far:ajsmug:
I shall be following to see where this goes from here.

Oh my gooooooooooood. That is soooooooo embarrassing. I'd rather shoot myself than ask my loved ones to help me.

Every badass has to have a lady-killer factor.

Don't take this the wrong way but I think this is a prequel :twilightsmile:

Thanks. Can't believe I flunked that.

Great chapter cant wait to see what is next

Make spikes next trial be a everfreed survival test.😆😋

I always wonder what shining armor was like as a drill Sargent

Get ready to pound his door ladies.

That’s it, I’m hooked! I like where this is going.

Please make another chapter PLEASE 😭😭😭

Can you make spike fight another dragon in the next chapter.😁😁😁

Not in the next, but he does fight a dragon in one chapter.

I want to know how Spike turned terror into his enemies.

Glad to see an update. Quick question, when do you plan on releasing the next chapter?

D-did you make a Jojo reference

OH NOOOOOO! My secret is out!

Can you make spike go though the molt effect in one of the chapters.

wonder what the nest class will be

Whatever it is i know its going to be cool like the first two.😆😆😆

Spike has a secret love interest!!!!

Great chapter can't wit for the next one

Best version of Blueblood I have ever read,:pinkiehappy: it fits his character because it makes sense and you wrote his character well. honestly, I was getting tired of the "blueblood is an ass" trope everyone was doing. this was refreshing and I thank you for this version of him. this will now be how i see him

Very Full Metal Jacket, nice. Though I gotta say, there is a reason they don’t use officers as drill sergeants, and not just because they aren’t mere sergeants. Buck it, we could just say that pony psychology works different or that Shining Armor was doing special for Spike. It would explain why he’s not in the Crystal Empire.

A great first chapter and I loved the Full Metal Jacket reference.

Gotta admit I love this version of Blueblood. Also I need more of this story.

you thought it was somebody else, but in fact it was ME! DIO!

Yes another great chapter for another great story

Ok.. um so this story that is under construction is before the one that was finished? Should I wait and until this is done to read the other?

Actually, this is a prequel. You Can Count on Me is the first one I wrote but the second in chronology.

9821704
Like how the Borderlands 2 and Prequel work? Is Spike going to be the one telling his story how he gets stronger to someone? And how he is now.

9821729
More like going through his training process in a more real-time aspect.

9822029
Now my brain hurts....:applejackconfused: ok.

So which should I hop over to first?

Spike needs to learn that Pony Style and Dragon Style are different fighting styles.

Everyone is talking about the Jojo reference, did no one else catch the Steven Universe reference?

9865269
I am so happy someone finally mentioned it!

You are going to love it when I get to Celestia's first appearance.

9907742
Reading the second chapter now. Already having fun. Did you get my message on Discord?

Shit, I know that the guard can be harsh but damn, and good on Spike for doing what comes natural to him and saving others. I like this chapter, moving on.
