> The Lost Baby Dragon > by Boop-Happy Lass > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 Lost in the Everfree Forest > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight was going to make a potion, but she still needs ingredients on the Everfree Forest. But, Spike wanted to go with her, Twilight accepted it, "But stay on my back okay?" said Twilight Sparkle "Promise!" said Spike then they went to the dark Everfree Forest, "Okay so lets go to Zecora's hut I bet she has the ingredients that I need." said Twilight, but when Twilight saw a timberwolf she ran as fast as she could. Spike shouted, "Lets get out of here Twilight!" But when Twilight jumped, Spike fell from her back. Spike was panicking, but Twilight was still running, after the timberwolf was gone Twilight noticed that Spike wasn't on her back.. Then Twilight went back in the Everfree Forest but there was nothing.. She went to Zecora's hut and told her what happened to Spike, "You lost the dragon?" Zecora asked "Yes," said Twilight "I think he fell when we were running." "I'm sorry but I am too busy to help you," said Zecora "how about tomorrow? is it okay for you?" "Okay," said Twilight "I understand." the next day, Twilight went to Fluttershy's cottage she saw Fluttershy feeding her chickens, Twilight came to her and said "Fluttershy, have you seen Spike come out of the Everfree Forest last night?" "What time?" said Fluttershy "in seven?" "Yes," said Twilight "I'm sorry but I only saw you," said Fluttershy "you were not with spike." "Okay" said Twilight, then she went to Zecora's hut without getting caught by a timberwolf, she went inside the hut and looked at Zecora sadly. "Whats wrong?" Zecora asked "I went to Fluttershy but," said Twilight "she said she did not saw Spike." "Okay," Zecora said "as i said yesterday." "Yeah, let's go find him." said Twilight Then they went outside the hut, and looked everywhere to find Spike but.. They did not find him. "Will he be okay?" Twilight asks. "I'm sure he is okay dear," said Zecora, Zecora went back to her hut, while Twilight walks back to the entrance sadly, when she was back to the library she saw Pinkie, Applejack, Rainbow, Fluttershy and Rarity. "Ohey Twilight!" Pinkie said happily, "Fluttershy told us you lost Spike," Rainbow said "Yes I lost him when we were running," Twilight was disappointed "on the Everfree Forest." "Don't worry sugarcube," said Applejack "we will help you find him!" "He wasn't on the Everfree Forest," she said "I think he is on another place.." "Well what are we waiting for?" said Pinkie and shouts "LETS GO!" They brought 4 maps incase they would lose one. "I still don't get why we need a lot of maps," Pinkie said the others were too busy on the plan so they did not heard her saying that. Rainbow was checking the wind if it was cold, hot, fast, slow. Twilight was planning on where they should go first, Applejack was bringing some apples for they're food, Fluttershy brought some owls to guide them in the dark and Rarity brought scarves when its cold and umbrellas when its raining, Pinkie was the only one who did nothing, but it was okay for her. "Okay," said Twilight normally "apples check! scarves check! umbrellas check! owls check!" "Rainbow did you check the weather?" Pinkie asks "Yep, all good!" Rainbow said "Check!" Twilight said They first traveled on Manehattan but there was no Spike, then they went to the mountains, still no Spike, then they went through the river, they were finding a raft, but they found a pony who has a raft, they went to him and said, "Hello there!" said Twilight "My name is Twi-" "Twily?" said the pony and asks "Is it really you?" "H-how do you know me?" Twilight asked, "Have I met you before?" The pony had black eyeglasses, so they don't actually see his face, then he took out his eyeglasses to reveal his face, it was. "Shining Armor?!" Twilight shouted "is it really you??" "Correct!" said Shining Armor "Celestia told me that Spike is gone so she sent me here to find him." "Wow! really?" Pinkie said happily "Phew," Rarity said "thank Celestia we have the captain of the guards." "Actually I'm not alone I have some guards with me." said Shining Armor Then Shining Armor joined them on finding Spike, Shining Armor started to ask questions to Twilight cause she has been acting strangely.. "So Twily Celestia told me you lost him on the-" Shining said "Everfree Forest," Twilight answered "I think we should not talk about that," Rainbow said "I agree," Fluttershy said They traveled on almost everywhere but still no spike, now everyone was a bit worried that he was long gone.. But everyone must have hope that he is still there alive, Pinkie was almost gonna cry after almost all the places were traveled but everyone did not give up on finding him. "Come on, he is got to be here Spike is fire proof" Rainbow said "We know," the rest replied "We've been searching for hours now Twily," said Shining Armor "I think we should take a break." "NO! we should keep on going!" Twilight yelled "I know that you miss Spike a lot sugar cube," said Applejack "your brother is right I think we should get some rest." Everyone nodded. "Okay," Twilight replied The next day Rainbow was the first one to wake up, cause she checks the weather every early morning, and everyone was still asleep. Applejack was the second to wake up cause she prepares they're food, while Rainbow helps Applejack put the plates and the fork and spoon. When Twilight woke up and went to the kitchen Applejack said, "Good Morning Twilight!" Rainbow was practicing her moves for the WonderBolts, Pinkie was fully energized, Rarity was styling her mane and Fluttershy was outside looking at the butterflies it was almost like a good day. "Soups on, everypony!" Applejack says "MMM, yummy!" Pinkie said happily as ever, "This was good!" said Rarity "Yeah really good." Rainbow said happily "How did you bake this Applejack?" Twilight asked curiously "Oh it was a special secret ingredient, Granny shared it to me." Applejack answered "So the weather today is pretty fine Twilight," said Ranbow "Okay, shall we go back to finding Spike?" Twilight asked Everyone nodded, and went back on finding Spike. Some moments they found a Dragon Island, some dragons blocked them to stop them from trespassing. "What gives?!" Rainbow said "Nopony is aloud to trespass this place, its only for dragons!" The dragons said "Hey have you seen a baby dragon with purple scales and green eyes here?" Shining Armor asks "Why should we tell you that?!" The dragons answered "Oh, come on!" Pinkie says > Chapter 2 The Requests > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow said angrily, "Oh really?!" "We dont need to fight them Rainbow!" said Applejack "Just let us in please we need to scan every place here in Equestria," said Twilight The dragons said "Hmm,we'll think of a request to give you, give us a moment please." And they were deciding on what request they should have then Rainbow tried to sneak in but Twilight dragged her back, cause she did not want to make the dragons mad cause it will just make it worse to go inside. The first dragon whispered "I think they should do anything to us," The second dragon whispered "No! how about they should bring us a lot of gems?" Everyone nodded and the dragons were done deciding about the request the dragons couldn't wait for it to begin, after they announced the request everyone gaped except for Rarity, cause she already did something like that. Twilight said, "But-" "Okay" said Rarity before Twilight could've finished. "Are you sure Rarity" Twilight whispered, Rarity asks "Did you forgot the gem spell i taught you 5 months ago?" Twilight muttered "Why didn't I think of that"-Twilight puts her hoof on her face-"I think I'm getting old" Pinkie was just looking at a tree and thought about something, she remembered that Fluttershy wanted to be a tree, she giggled cause she thought its too funny if Fluttershy will turn into a tree, then she looked back to the others and forgot about what the dragons said. "Pinkie you alright?" said Twilight "Sorry I was just looking at that tree then I remembered that Fluttershy wants to be a tree," said Pinkie "Oh she's just being Pinkie Pie." then Twilight chuckled. Then they followed Rarity on finding gems, after they found some gems they would carry them on their own, cause Spike wasn't with them. "Why do we have to carry this again?" Pinkie asks "Cause Spike is not here." Twilight looked up and back down Then they went to the island and called the dragons, the dragons were very hungry and that is why they needed those shiny gems, they let the ponies in the lair but before they could go in another dragon blocked them and throw them back at the entrance. Rainbow yelled "I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT DRAGON THROW US OUT LIKE THAT!" "Yeah," said Pinkie "that was not very very nice.." "But we still need to search there," said Twilight "I got the feeling that Spike's in there." "Let's wait for your brother and the guards," said Applejack "he said that he is gonna bring more guards in case" "Yes darling i rather go with Applejack's idea" said Rarity Twilight replied, "Then it settled we should stay here and wait." then everyone sat on boulders but Twilight was still looking on the map. At night Shining Armor came with even more guards than last time, so what he told him to them really was true, when Twilight shouted, "Shining Armor!" everyone woke up and looked at Twilight with the guards the 5 ponies gaped at the number of guards Shining Armor had sent. "Why do we need a lot of guards?" Pinkie asked "In case there is a monster like a dragon or-" "Great!" said Twilight immediately The next day they went again on the entrance and the dragon came, Shining Armor ordered the guards to protect them, when the dragon tried to grab them, one of the guards grabbed his spear and blocked it. "Think you can go inside and find that little dragon eh?" the dragon said "Ha! well too late I got control of him and put him in a coma!" "Oh no," Twilight muttered > Chapter 3 Let The Fighting BEGIN! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rarity said, "What did you do to poor Spikey wikey?!" "Guards, attack the dragon!" said Shining Armor "I agree!" said Rainbow "let's go and help the guards guys!" "Yeepee! another fighting scene with the main characters!" said Pinkie everyone I mean everypony stared at Pinkie Pie, "What? I was just being me." Pinkie hopped and everypony carried on with the fighting while Twilight tries to find a secret lair cause she thinks Spike is in their secret lair if they have one. "Come on Twilight don't let them down." Twilight pressed a secret button and something opened up Twilight thought that this was the secret lair, then she went downstairs, it almost took forever but gladly it was finally done, after the stairs there was a couple of keys that she will press to open up a door. Meanwhile at the fighting, "Hiya!" said Rainbow the guards were doing well on the dragon but the dragon still doesn't suffer one of the guards said, "He's too strong captain,but I think we can still hold it off!" "Okay," said Shining Armor Pinkie was throwing cakes at the dragon and she said, "Whoo! this is fun!" Rarity was fighting with style, Rainbow was fighting normally but Fluttershy was hiding on a tree like she is actually the tree and Applejack guarding Shining Armor cause she was told to. Back on the secret lair, "hmm, what about 4231?" said Twilight "Aha! got it I knew it was a pattern! after she saw what was inside she groaned. "Another set of, stairs"-Twilight was disappointed-"let's get to this, again.." Then she went to the stairs angrily but she did not give up on those stairs, when she is tired, she sometimes takes a break then goes back, when she was at the half way almost to the top she remembered the gravity spell and put her hoof on her face, she used the spell and it made her upside down, she slid on the stairs and made her go faster a bit, then she was getting really close to the top. Meanwhile at the fighting, "Finally I guess that's it." Shining Armor pant when the dragon was defeated, "We really did it!" Rainbow happily said. Fluttershy asked, "Uhm, is it okay now?" "Yeah I think so sugar cube" Applejack answered They went at the lair where Twilight is, and went downstairs Rarity was whining but everypony ignored her whining, when they finished going down Rarity said, "Finally." Rarity stretched her hooves and walk right next to the door, everypony went inside and when they saw it their reactions were the same as Twilight, when they went to the stairs again Rarity whined even more. Speaking of Twilight, she finally made it to the top then she turned back to normal. "Well that was really fun," said Twilight "Okay now let's see, well I think the others are coming so I'll just wait." after a few minutes Rarity finally stopped whining but then she started crying then everypony got annoyed with Rarity but Pinkie was enjoying it. "I think I'll just sleep here," Twilight said weakly "I was on those stairs for minutes, but good thing I remembered that spell." she found a chair to sit on she sat on it, and slept. "Are we there yet Applejack?" Fluttershy asked "Almost there Fluttershy don't worry," Applejack answered "Finally, just let me know if you're there." Rarity slept on the cart Applejack brought. And then they finally arrived at the top then Twilight woke up groggily, and looked at the stairs, she saw the other 6 ponies there and said, "Oh my gosh! are you guys alright?" "Yeah, I think so," said Rainbow "I'm so energized so don't worry about me," said Pinkie "they were really tired Twilight." "Okay," said Shining Armor and asks "so why didn't you carry on going Twily?" "Cause actually, there were a lot of doors I didn't want to get lost, promise!" said Twilight Then they carried on going, Rainbow went to the left door but no Spike, then she went to the middle door there was only a table but still no Spike, then they decided to go on the right door then they saw another extra door and they went through it. After that there was Spike in a coma, Shining Armor cut the red cable then the machine let go of Spike then Twilight grabbed him and ran away from the secret lair, Twilight put Spike on the hospital to guard him on his coma, Twilight dropped a single tear and said, "I'm glad that you're back Spike, that time when we were on a trip to see the stars, that was the best day we had." > Chapter 4 Preparing Spike's Welcome back to Ponyville Party > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "That Winter Wrap Up we did last time, was good now was it?" said Twilight and let out a sigh "Those were good memories." then Twilight sat on a chair right next to Spike and thought, "I just wish that all things will come to normal when he wakes up." then stands and says goodbye. She went out side the hospital and goes back to her library and said, "I've never been here in a while now." and giggles. Then she took some books on the shelves and tries to study them, she took out a Magic Spell book and also Pony Diseases book, as she started to read the first book then she thought about Spike, in the way he helped her make a checklist about her spells, the way he supports her when she couldn't see in the dark, and how he cheers her up. Twilight didn't want to forget those times he helped her.. Then she started reading through the pages, and concentrates. Meanwhile on her friends, Pinkie was so happy, Rarity was happy too, Applejack continued on doing her chores on the farm, Rainbow was on the skies busting clouds and doing her tricks and Fluttershy was glad that they finally found Spike. The weather there in Ponyville was really good, nopony was fighting and angry. Everypony was all happy. "What a happy day it is today!" said Pinkie then hops around Twilight's library to see what she was doing. Pinkie opened the door and said, "What ya doing Twilight?" Twilight was still reading the book, so Pinkie shouted, "Twilight!' then Twilight groaned and said, "What is it?" "Come on out!" Pinkie said, "I'm gonna make Spike's Welcome back to Ponyville party, wanna help?" "No thanks, I have to study my magic spells." "Come on!"-Pinkie was circling at Twilight-"you do want to be happy that he is back right?" Twilight groaned and said, "Fine.." "Woohoo! lets go then!" They first went to Sweet Apple Acres to see if Applejack wants to come along and help make the party, Applejack nodded but said, "After I'm done feeding the chickens and the pigs okay, I won't be late!" Pinkie nodded and Twilight just waved her hoof and said goodbye to Applejack. Then they went to the Carousel Boutique to see if Rarity can come, Rarity said, "Why of course darling, I would always come when it has to do with Spike's back to home party." Pinkie smiled then Rarity joined them. Twilight had a checklist of her friends, Then checked Rarity and AJ on the list. And then they planned on going for Rainbow Dash but then Twilight remembered that its on the sky, so they just went to Fluttershy's cottage and see if she can help. Fluttershy joined them so now they're gonna go to Rainbow's house.. "Okay," Twilight said, "Rainbow is the only one left." "Okie Dokie Lokie!" They went to get a hot air balloon and went to Rainbow Dash's house. "We are here!" said Pinkie "Wait! don't go yet!" Twilight said, "I still need to cast the spell that lets ponies walk on clouds." "Okie Twily!" Twilight cast the spell and they jumped down and knocked the door, Rainbow opened the door and said, "Oh hey guys!" "What are you guys doing here? come on in." and they went inside the house then Pinkie asks, "Wanna help us on making Spike's Welcome back to Ponyville party??" "I'm in if you all of you guys are," Rainbow said, "so are you guys in?" Everyone nodded and Rainbow has joined them on making the party. Now they went to Sugar Cube Corner hoping to see if Applejack was there already, they went inside and sat on the chairs. "Hey where is Applejack?" Rainbow asked, then somepony opened the door, and went inside and said, "I'm right here everypony sorry if I'm late." it was Applejack.. "Okay, I guess were all here now," said Twilight "Totally!" "Shall we do it now Pinkie? I'mma wait if no." "Oh don't worry, we are gonna do it right now" Pinkie said, "But first we'll need the following things." "What are they sugar cube?" "Okie here it goes,"-Pinkie took a deep breath-"Streamers, balloons of course, cakes, oooooh ICE CREAM!, a chocolate fountain, pies and I don't know about my checklist but it says we also need plates? we already have those." "Okay.." Twilight said, " Shall we get those things then??" "Okie, Twilight here's the checklist so that you will not miss a single thing!" "Thanks Pinkie," Twilight said "alright everypony lets get to shopping!" Everypony nodded and walked out of Sugar Cube Corner. "Okay first is streamers okay follow me everypony," said Twilight They went through a shop with streamers but they forgot something its their, bits. "We forgot our bits great."-Rainbow puts her hoof on her face-"Really GREAT!" "Uhm.. Now.. What Twilight.." said Fluttershy "Hmm, lets see." Twilight said, "Applejack do you have some bits or not?" "I do have some," Applejack replied, "but are you sure my bits are enough to buy all the things Twi?" "I don't know well let's just hope that it will be enough for all of it, if not, I don't know what to do anymore!" "Okay if you say so." When Applejack brought her bits, they went to the shop and said, "Ahem! um hello there can we buy those streamers?" said Twilight The sales pony glanced on them and said, "Why hello there Twilight Sparkle!" "Oh hi, we would like to buy some streamers please." "For what?" The sales pony asked "Uhh you see, Pinkie told us that she needed streamers to-" "For a party? if so, you can have them for free!" Then the pony squinted "are you sure you're not lying?" "Ask Pinkie." Rainbow said, "Then you will know." "Okay then you can buy the streamers." When they were done with the streamers Twilight glanced at the checklist and see what is next, "Okay next are balloons everypony." said Twilight everypony was finding a balloon shop, Rarity found it, "Ah right here darling." said Rarity. And then they went through the shop and explained why they need to buy the balloons so bad and they also answered a bit of questions, "So do you know why we need those now?" Twilight asked "Yeah I think so and by the way you can buy them now because if Pinkie is making a party it is always never late so yeah I understand why you all are in a rush." "Thanks so much!" Then it went fine after that, when they got all the things on the checklist they went back to Sugar Cube Corner to see what Pinkie is doing now. "We're back Pinkie" said Twilight "So you got it all?" "Yep, we got all of 'em sugar cube." Applejack replied "Can't wait to get this done!" said Rarity "Yeah I know right????" said Dash "Let's begin on putting the decorations!" Everyone nodded and they started to put the decorations they all worked together to make it actually perfect, Pinkie was the one saying where to put the balloons, streamers and the chairs she even arranged the tables and Fluttershy was cleaning the floor, Rainbow Dash was helping Pinkie on putting the streamers and balloons, and Rarity was placing the cakes, Twilight made a checklist and Applejack was helping Twilight double check the checklist. After they were done at putting the decorations, everypony panted because they worked so hard to get the job done. "Alright now ponies, I got to do the rest now, how about you all get home and rest?" said Pinkie "Yeah, sure thanks again Pinkie!" Everypony waved their hooves and said goodbye, and now they back to their homes Pinkie made Twilight's day shine and she was so happy in that day. Twilight said, "I think I'll visit Spike at the hospital tomorrow its been a tiring day." Twilight went to her bedroom and slept immediately. Twilight woke up on 7:00 AM the same time she lost Spike on the Everfree Forest but she didn't need to be worried anymore because Spike is now back to Ponyville. She remembered what she promised yesterday that she will visit Spike at the hospital to check if he is okay now. But first she was eating breakfast and taking a bath, and then she went to the hospital.
