Feeling discontent with his life, Spike wishes upon a star to go somewhere where he can find what his purpose is , Meanwhile in a land far far a way from Equestria in a land called Nibel, The spirit tree is desperate to find someone who can help save the forest. When he reaches out across the world he sees spike wishing to go somewhere where he can find meaning, and it sees potential in him, he uses what little power he has to summon Spike to Nibel. Spike wakes up in a dark forest confused on where he was, after exploring a bit he encounters a spirit by the name of Ori, after seeing a light from a large tree restore her and save his life from injury, Spike himself feels something awaken inside him as well. From there they team up to try to save the forest from destruction while Spike goes on an emotional journey that will change his life.

If this is before Spike saved the Crystal Empire, then Twilight should still be a unicorn, and Twilight and Spike should still live in the Library Treehouse.

just edited it so it takes place after so i hope that makes more sense in terms of story, my bad i must've mixed up the seasons, sorry! Thank you for letting me know so i could go back and fix this!
11677661
That's all right, thanks.
Good start there, looking forward to more!
Are the Main 6 going to watch Spike progress through this?
11678378
i might have a interlude part where they use a spell or something to see what's happening with him, if you guys want that I'll do it!
11678399
Yeah, that'll work, or maybe Luna and Celestia could use the spell if they know that place or what saved Spike and Oni's lives.
11678404
I'll think of something, thanks for the suggestion!
Was wondering how Spike/Ori would be able to communicate, glad that was settled. It was rough seeing Spike getting hurt like that at the beginning but I was glad he came out of it ok, looking forward to see where it goes from here!
Are you going to do Ori and the Dragon in the Will of the Wisps after this?
11678817
in a couple more stories, i plan on either doing a Spider Man story where spike becomes a Spider man or Spider dragon, or Kung fu panda stories where Spike goes through the events of the movies, let me know which one you'd rather see first!
11678920
Spiderman or Spiderdragon in this case. But, are you going to do Ori and the Will of the Wisps game featuring Spike after this one?
11678960
I'll decide what to do first, just give me time, if i do my spider man story first I'll do a second ori story right after. But i need time to decide
11678991
Ok, just asking.
nice story can't wait for the next chapter keep up the good work
I must ask, would you rather i do a spider dragon story where spike becomes a spider man , or a kung fu panda story where Spike goes through the events of the movies? i might do the spider dragon firs but i wanna know what you would like.
Oh wow, and here I thought Spike's strange light abduction was only limited to be seen only in Ponyville/Canterlot but that wasn't the case at all!
Liking your take on Torch here, can't wait to see him & Celestia brainstorming some ways to get where Spike is!
BTW will the Mane 6 & others be seeing what Spike/Ori be going though on their adventure there?
Looking forward to more!
11679478
yeah. I'll have a later interlude where they see spike's emotional journey, him almost dying, and an extra surprise i have at the end of the story, for when i eventually get to the sequel
Sweet balance between action & heartfelt moments in this chapter, great work!
More sweet action & witty banter for our heroes, love it!
11680115
Released an extra chapter today please check it out and enjoy it!
11680252
had extra time to make it so I'm glad you liked it!
nice but you might want to make the chapters longer
11680462
I'll work on what parts should be short and long, thanks for the advice! I'll be sure to use it!
11680484
no probs go at your on pace
Geez talk about cliffhangers, can't wait for more!
Knew Mama Twilight/Mane 5 would freaked out at seeing Spike getting seriously hurt (I certainly did
) but also seeing him been awesome alongside Ori during his adventure! 
Yep, I totally agree with the others here RD!
Keep up the awesome work!
11681221
on a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate my story so far as well as my last one?
11681228
I give the first one a 7 maybe 8 by the end of it. This one I give it a 9 so far!
11681230
Thanks! I'll be sure to improve upon my writing with future stories
Ginso not Gisno.
11681329
my bad ill go back and edit the chapters thank you!
11681329
just fixed it all, my bad! a simple spelling error, thank you for letting me know its a little embarrassing
Ooh exploration time, nice!
Really loving this story, course I still want a sequel to Mother where we can see Spike learning/growing up at the Dragonlands, maybe alongside a certain orange dragoness?
Keep up the great work!
I don't know if you're aware, but Ori is canonically a dude! Was that a mistake, or just a different interpretation?
11681603
different interpretation to fit the story, just an idea of mine, sorry for those thought ori was a dude
11681581
maybe a sequel in the near future, might rewrite the first at some point but keep the original story up to keep others who read it happy, then make the sequel
A bit worried about Spike absorbing the light powers for a while now with those changes on his body/spikes, hoping it all goes well in the end though!
Is it bad that I kind of want to see Spike do become a full Spirit by the end of this whole thing? lol
hay when will we see a pov change to the pony side for the next set off chapters
11682497
i think in 2 or 3 more chapters don't worry I'll change back again! I'll probably have an epilogue where they see the rest of his journeys and the end and prepare to find him
hay what will you do with ori now do you have anymore story's planed for her or?
11682948
I do plan on a sequel. but i want to get some other story's done first, hope you can understand
And then Spike and Ori end up in Niwen.
11683020
in the sequel, yeah don't worry i know where the story goes from there, sorry if it makes it seem rude, but thank you for letting me know where their next journey is supposed to be
Quite the first adventure tale for Spike here, wasn't expecting him to fully become a (ori) hybrid & Kuro's different fate at the end there. The dragon rescue team with the dragon bros (Garble/Smolder) leading the charge, nice!
Great story Dragonfan, looking forward to what you have in store next!
11683076
How would you feel if i put Spike through Star wars The Clone wars, and it ends with Spike and Ahsoka trying to survive order 66?
11683077
Sounds interesting, so long as him & Ashoka make it out ok with their limbs still attached!
11683083
If you've seen the show they will.
