With the Fire Ruby stolen, Spike and Ember must undertake another quest across Equestria to locate it. However they soon run across the gun slinging bounty huntress Applejack, and the notorious air pirate Rainbow Dash!
I've taken Rainbow Dash under my protection, but what about the rest of them? Ember says I'll have to be more dominant and proactive to become the Dragon Lord someday, but is that really what I want? Sounds like a lot of pressure!
Every leader is under pressure from their subjects, whether they like it or not, Spike. People will judge your every word and action and hold you to them, however unreasonable it may be.
Still, if it means I can protect them and have their love, I'm willing to at least try. Maybe that's what the world needs. Instead of all the races fighting for control, maybe I can help them unite under my wings. I know that's far off, but between Discord and his cult, the coven, Gunsmoke, not to mention the Dragon Lands, well...we'd be pretty much unstoppable!

You're already on the right track by getting laid with Rainbow Dash, the Pie Sisters and possibly even the coven in terms of kick-starting their love for you, and you've formed an alliance with a god who can bend reality by snapping his fingers as well as the women of Gunsmoke. Just keep pushing forward and you'll have the alliance to end all civil wars!
For the Author: It's been quite a while since the last chapter, but it was worth the wait. Keep it up! I can't wait to see Spike's family and power grow.
10334137 Yes, but with my admitted dwindling interest in MLP and desire to focus on my OC projects I wish to wrap this series up; think of this and the sequel as a thank you/farewell to my readers who aren't interested in my personal stuff.
Now, Pinkie's sisters are joining this adventure. It's good to see Applejack and Rainbow Dash at peace with each other. Can't wait to see how this story concludes.
10340846 Thanks, writing this certainly made me like AJ and Dash more, who are admittedly my least favorite of the mane six. Always enjoy the Pie sisters, just wish I could capture Pinkie better since she's tied with Rarity as my fave!

I'm sure 'smashing the air pirate' would be a nice portfolio of a Dragon Lord candidate.
so how bad would it be if spike got mad now??

Just slightly worse for the moment, but it would keep multiplying if he keeps giving into his anger!

then maybe it would be smart of him to learn how to channel that anger into protective energy to keep his girls safe.
Great chapter!

Thanks, at least one more chapter to go, but I hope to sequel this eventually.

Keep going, Dr. This entire arc is way too good to stop just yet!

We'll see, don't want to cram too much at once but also wish to move onto the finale.

Don't worry. You can write long stories as long as they are exciting.
