Prologue

* BEEP * BEEP * BEEP *

A alarm clock went off waking a purple and green dragon from his sleep. The dragon got out of his bed and put on blue jeans and a purple shirt. After putting cloths on the drake picked up a card that was on his dresser.

HAPPY 20^th BIRTHDAY SPIKE!

YOUR BRO,

Garble

Spike smiled and walked to his living room in the apartment complex. He then sat down on his couch and turned on the TV. He surfed though the channels and found nothing. Their was a sudden boom at the door. Spike went and opened the door and found the newspaper. He took the paper to the kitchen and made a bowl of cereal.

NOW HIRING AT TWILIGHT SPARKLE'S PIZZA

A new job has opened at the famous restaurant,

Twilight Sparkle's Pizza. The night guard at this

restaurant has quit and so we need a guard to

fill this spot. They must have decent fighting

skills, in case of intruders and be able to work

from 12:00pm to 8:00am. If interested please,

visit the restaurant and ask for the job.

"Decent fighting skills huh, well if I can kick Garble's ass then I should be good enough." Spike said to himself. Those two have fought together and against each other as long as they can remember. if were to fight, Spike would always win.
Ether by kind words or by claw. Although if they fought together,they were untouchable. Once when they were 17, they fought their whole high school and won, All because Garble spilled his food on the school's football team.

"That school took football way too seriously. Anyways I'm broke, I need a job. I guess I could do it. How hard could it be?" Spike said getting up from finishing his cereal. He put the bowl in the sink and grabbed a gray hoodie to leave.

Spike walked down the street of ponyville towards his new job. As he approached the restaurant he got a very uneasy feeling but continued anyway. He soon entered the building to be greeted by a unicorn with a cyan main and tail.

"Hello, I'm Fancy Pants. How may I help you." The unicorn said with a smile.

"Hi, I'm Spike. I'm here about the job in the paper." Spike said returning the smile.

"Ah perfect. Here let me show you around. If you would please follow me." Fancy pants said turning around.

"Right now we are in the entrance room. though this door we arrive at the party room." The room was filled with party decorations and party hats. " Here is where the guests eat pizza and party. Even tho this is a restaurant, we still have parties for filly's." Fancy pant's pointed out. "On the stage over there, we have 5 animatronics, in the center is the very Twilight Sparkle. To the right of her is Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy. On her left is Rarity, and Applejack. They're creepy as hell but the foals love'em. " Spike couldn't agree more."Here is the restrooms, both stallion, or in your case drake, and mare. Beside the restrooms is the door to the cafeteria. Right there in the corner is Sugar Cube Corner. That's were Pinkie Pie is. The door beside that is the maintenance room. Down these halls is where you'll be working, follow me please."

As they walked to the hallway Spike couldn't help but feel watched, but every time he look to see what was looking at him he saw nothing out of the ordinary. Once they reached the room, Spike took note of how small it was. beside the door they entered was two buttons, one was white and the other was red. The red one had a label that said door and the white button said light. it was exactly the same on the other side of the room. in the front of the room was a desk with a tablet.

"Here is where you will be working. On the desk here is the tablet you will use to view though the cameras. The camera to the cafeteria is currently down. I have a replacement coming, but it will take a week to get here." Fancy Pants said finishing the tour." So, do you think you could handle the job?" He side sticking out his hand for Spike to shake.

"Of course, you can count on me. Boss." Spike said shaking the stallions hand.

"Good, Very Good. If you could come to my office to sign some papers, you can get started." Fancy Pants said leading Spike to his office. Meanwhile on the stage and sugercube corner, all of the animatronics seemed to turn and each other and smile.

"If I could have you sign these, You can start tomorrow." Fancy said handing Spike papers.

"Tomorrow, why tomorrow?" Spike asked while signing the papers without reading them.

"Oh, because I have it covered tonight, and I have to do a lot of paper work, so i thought I would stay the night. Also when your working feel free to use the cafeteria to have pizza, if you wish." Fancy explained.

"Oh, thank you!" Spike said happily." I do have two question about the job."

"Ask away."

"What time do you want me here and what days do you want for me to work?"

"Like the paper said, I need you to be here 12 to 8, but I would like you to be here a half an hour early. For the other question I need you to work 5 days a week, but I may need you to work some week ends too." Fancy explained.

"That's perfect. I can do that, all you need to do is let me know and I will be there." Spike said full of confidence and handing all the papers he signed.

"That's great to hear. Now you may head home and get some rest. tomorrow night when you arrive I will have a name tag for you. Oh, that reminds me, I never got your full name."

" It's Spike Steel Damascus. For a name tag you can just put Spike Damascus." Spike informed.

"Ah, thank you." Fancy rose to shake Spikes hand again." Well then, I shall see you tomorrow Spike Damascus." Fancy soon walked to the entrance with Spike too see him off. After he left Fancy walked to the party room.

"He seems like a nice kid. Go easy on him girls, he's still young."

Dear Garble,

I know it's been a while scene I've seen you and you probably won't even get this letter, but I wanted to let you know that I am really am grateful for what you did. It probably wont mean much, but I am. I hope I wasn't to much of a problem, your family is way more forgiving than mine. I was also writing this letter to ask you how those other projects are going, since I still have the prototype's. I love them but they feel like there wherein out. Oh, I also got a new job as a night guard.I know its not an amazing but its what I could get. Anyways hope your doing good back in the dragon lands.

Your Bro,

Spike

Spike had finished his letter and put it into its envelope. He took the envelope and set on a small table by his door. He then went back to his room to get ready for tonight.

*THUD*

Spike suddenly stopped, he had accidentally jammed his foot into his dresser. He felt no pain, but there was now a huge dent in the dresser now. "Dam." Spike sighed to himself. He opened the dresser to get out clothes and got out a purple jacket and green pants.

After putting them on he soon went to is living room. There he practiced his fighting moves. he threw one foot in the air, and retracted it, only to thrust it into different locations, over and over again. He soon put his foot back on the floor and started to practice with his other leg. After he finished he attempted to do a trick he hadn't done in a long time. Spike took a few steps forward, he then leaned down jumped high and backwards. While in the air, Spike leaned forwards, and kept his legs strait. He had almost completed his backwards front flip, but when his foot came back to the ground it had hit the floor pretty hard with a loud boom.

"HEY! Keep it down kid! I'm trying to sleep here!" Called an elderly man a floor down.

"Sorry!" Spike shouted back. Spike then heard his alarm go off. That meant it was 11:00. Spike walked to the door, grabbed his letter and left. Before Spike Left his apartment complex, he had put his letter in his mailbox. "Please make it to Garble." Spike wished as he shut the box.

"Ah, Spike your here." Fancy said watching the young drake walk in. Fancy Pants was wearing, what would be considered, royal attire with a monocle. Fancy was also holding a cane. "How are you?"

"Good, you?" Spike asked kindly.

"Great. Now, do you remember what told you yesterday?" Fancy asked the drake.

"Yes, I do. You also said you had a name tag for me." Spike pointed out.

"Indeed I did." Fancy reached into his front pocket and pulled something out. "Here you are. Oh,and take this flashlight." Fancy said handing Spike the items. Spike looked at the name tag with a huge smile. "I read a bit on dragons and I found that, at birth dragons are given their first name but must earn the rest, like titles. So, could you tell me how you got your name? The name of a metal that's been folded about a dozen times." Spike's smile faded.

"Its a painful tale. I'll tell you some other day." Spike said putting on the name tag.

"I Understand. Now, like I said you will be here from now till I arrive. I will be back here at 8:00 to unlock the building." Fancy said walking past the drake.

"Wait! Your locking me in here?"

"Yes, oh and I almost forgot. The generator is limited on power during the night. Goodbye." Fancy said swiftly shutting the door.

"Alright, this could be worse." Spike said to himself in the pitch black room. Spike turned on the flashlight and walked to where he would work. after a short walk he made it to the back room.

Sometime has passed and Spike was sitting at the desk flicking though the camera's. "This is so boring." Spike said stretching out his legs and laying them on the desk.

*TINK*

The loud sound echoed throughout the building. "Dammit Spike! For the amount of time you've had these things, you should have learned to be gentle." Spike said to himself. He then looked the clock. " It's only 4:00 a.m, it feel's so much later."

Spike began looking though the cameras again on his tablet. but this time he noticed something. In the bottom right corner was a icon that looked like a camera. "That's weird." Spike said tapping the icon. It showed a bunch of files named UNKNOWN, with numbers beside them . Out of curiosity, Spike tapped on UNKNOWN 1. It pulled up a video of a stallion with green fur and a black main siting where Spike was now. The camera was sitting on the desk facing towards the stallion and Spike couldn't seethe doors only the buttons. The stallion looked like he was panicking, he was frantically pressing the buttons on the wall and checking the tablet. This went on for about a minuet before all the lights cut out, the only light was from the tablet. The stallion just froze and looked at the camera. Spike swore he heard a faint, feminine, demonic laugh. "ha ha ha." In a few seconds Spike saw a yellow and pink face come into view before abruptly ending.

Spike was kind of freaked out about the footage but opened another video. The camera was in the same spot as before but this time it was a different stallion. This stallion had light blue fur and a yellow main. He was crying and saying the something over and over again. "I don't wanna die,I don't wanna die!" The lights cut off as soon as soon as he finished that line, again with the only light being the tablet. The stallion froze and about a second later the demonic laugh could be heard again. "ha ha ha". This caused the stallion to start crying a lot worse. Soon a face on the opposite side of the side of the screen a white and purple face appeared, the stallion jumped back from the face and let out the loudest scream Spike had ever heard before, the video ended mid scream.

Spike was now beyond scared. He had so many questions running though his head. Did they die? If so where are the bodies? Just how many ponies have been here before me? Spike couldn't control himself. His hand went to another video and tapped it. It pulled up a video of a mare with a cyan coat and a white main. She was moving just as fast as the first stallion but she was surprisingly calm. "Come on!" she said to herself. In this video there was a bunch of demonic laughs "ha ha ha". The mare seemed to be ignoring them. She looked as if she was bouncing off the walls for how fast she was going. Just like the rest of the video's the power cut out and the only light was from the tablet. she grabbed the small clock on the desk and stared shaking and talking to it. "COME ON!" She stared screaming at it, until she started to cry. On the left side of the screen appeared, followed another pair and another. They kept appearing until it encircled the mare. Spike counted 6 pair's of eyes. The mare stopped crying and looked dead at the camera. the tablet light begin to flicker and eventually fade, along with all the eyes, leaving no light to see anything on the screen to see anything. After a few seconds, Spike heard the worst, most bloodcurdling scream he had ever heard.

"ha ha ha" Spike's eye's shrank, his heart stopped. Spike turned his head to the left to see a pink pony a with similar pink main. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. In the blink of an eye the pony was gone. He shook his head, "This isn't real." Spike grabbed his flash light and left the room thought the right door. When he made it to the stage room he noticed nothing out of the ordinary. "Yea, it was nothing. how silly of me." Spike said to himself while walking into the boys restroom.

Outside the building was a rather large dragon, a griffin, and a stallion. All of them were wearing black clothing. "Alright guy's let's do this. This will be the 30^th place we've robbed this month!" the dragon said proud. The griffin nodded and put a crowbar to the door and began to pry it open.

Spike had just finished washing his face when he heard a loud bang at the front door, and multiple voices that followed the bang. He walked out of the bathroom to see what it was, But before he made it to the entrance of the restroom he stopped to listed to the voices.

"Alright guys were in. Now where's the cash register?" one of the crooks said.

"You shouldn't worry about the register. You should worry about how quickly you can get out of the building." Spike said stepping out from the restroom and facing the intruders. His eye's were now blood red, and the pupils were now complete slits. Spike counted 2 robbers, a Stallion and a dragon... and another being behind him. A birdlike claw with a dagger was about to stab Spike in the shoulder. In the blink of an eye Spike had grabbed the claw and pulled the griffin in front of him and kicked the griffin hard. The griffin went flying and landed in front of the rest of the robbers.

"Get him!" The dragon yelled while he and the stallion lit flares and ran towards Spike. The first one to reach Spike was the Stallion, with lightning speed, Spike twisted himself around and hit the stallion in the head with the side of his foot. He then retracted his leg and kicked the stallion in the gut sending him flying back into the dragon knocking him back a few feet. Still with his incredible speed spike grabbed the stallion's foot who was still in the air, and yanked him back. Spike then jumped in the air twisted himself around and kicked the stallion so hard in the chest he bounced off the ground, resulting in the stallion being unconscious.

"What the hell is with this guy!?" The griffin said in pain and struggling to get up.

"That fighting style! Wait! I know who you are! Your that kid who kicked me and my teams ass back in high school!" The dragon yelled. Spike ran towards the dragon and tried to dropkick him only to be covered in the dragons flames. Spike made it though the flames only to have his pants burned off up to his thighs. After Spike landed he ran over to the griffin did a back flip with a kick to send him back.

"What the Hell are you?" The dragon said staring at Spike. Without Spike's pants they could now see Spikes legs, or rather Spike cyborg legs. From his toes to his knees, there was nothing but complicated machinery. Above the knees was what looked like a power block with bright green lights. After seeing such a sight, if anybody was paying attention to the animatronics, they would have noticed the there cheeks went from red to pink.

Spike charged at the griffin again, only to be punched by the dragon and flung back a few feet. Within these few feet of flying backwards, Spike had done 2 front flips. The two robbers charged at Spike, only for him to Spin around and kick them both in the head at once and knock them out.

"What Happened here!?" Fancy Pants said walking into the building.

After a few hours the robbers could be found being taken outside of the restaurant by police. Spike was just about to finish telling the police what happened. He could also be found wearing a new pair of pants.

". . . And my boss, fancy Pants entered the restraint and we called you guys and you know the rest." almost as soon as Spike finished he was approached by Fancy.

"Hey, you did great for your first day!" Fancy said with a smile.

"Really? Your not mad?" Spike asked surprised.

"Nope, but I want you here early tomorrow so you can tell me in person what happened. But for now you can go home you earned it."

"Thanks a lot Fancy! Not just for this but for the pants before the cops showed up."

"No problem son, just go home." Fancy said with a smile and a wave, as the drake walked off.

Night 2 Part: 1

View Online

It was starting to get very late and Fancy Pants could be found in his office working on his computer. Suddenly the phone rang and Fancy picked it up without hesitation.

"Hello?" Fancy asked with a curious tone.

"Is this Fancy Pants?"

"Yes it is. Is this the school I called earlier?"

"Yes, I am Miss Silica, how may I help you?"

"I'm calling to ask if I can have all the files for a Spike Damascus?" There was a long pause.

"S-Sir!?" The woman said with panic in her voice.

"Oh, and I want the footage of the famous cafeteria fight please. If you could email them to me I would very much appreciate it. Goodbye." Fancy said hanging up. A few seconds later he had received a email with with a few files attached and a message that read 'Don't ever contact us again.' Fancy ignored the message and eagerly opened the only video file and began to watch.

Spike sprinted down the stairs in his apartment and rushed to the mailbox. He opened it to find nothing inside.

"Damn, what did I expect. It’s only been a day." Spike said to himself. He then zipped up his jacket and walked out the door. "Sis always loved the bright nights." Spike said, walking out the door and looking at the moon. " I wonder how she's doing?"

Flashback

It was a stormy day in the Dragon Lands and a certain school was finishing up class. "When adding negatives to negatives, they cancel out. But when adding a negative to a positive, the negative stays-” The teacher babbled on about work. Near the back of the classroom sat three dragons. One was a female drake with D cup breasts and purple scales and a green underbelly. She had a slim body figure, and her scales had a somewhat faded color to them. The drake that sat next to her had the same color scheme, but was a male. He was about four inches taller. Both dragons had no wings. The last dragon had red scale with a yellow underbelly. He had wings but they had a few holes in them. He had glasses, braces, and a small but muscular build.

“Hey, Spike do you know what’s for lunch?” The red one asked.

“I don’t know Garble. . . and Barbara doesn't know either, I asked earlier. Now at least look like you're paying attention.” Spike said in response, looking back to the chalkboard. While Barbara just put her head down.

“I thought it was tomato soup, and grilled cheese.” Spike put on a serious look and turned back to him.

“Really? I heard it was going to be tatertots.” Spike said in question. Garble shook his head and glanced at the board.

“Seriously, just tatertots!? That can’t even make a meal by itself.”

“I Don’t know man, I just heard tatertots were this week.” Spike turned back to the front of the class and saw something that frightened him a bit.

“That would make an epic meal with just tatertots-” Garble was cut of.

“MR. GARBLE!” The teacher yelled. Garble just closed his eyes and looked down.

“Crap.”

“Care to explain what is so important that it must be said over me?” the teacher growled.

“I was asking my best friend what was for lunch.” Garble said still looking down. The teacher put on a cocky smile.

“Alright solve the problem on the board and all shall be forgiven.” The teacher crossed his arms and his smile grew bigger.

“Seven.” Garble said with confidence.

“W-W-What!?” The teacher staggered. Garble finally looked up. On the board was nothing but big numbers and complicated symbols.

“At the end of all that nonsense you have 15,489 - 15,482, and that equals 7.” The teacher was shocked. Garble had just proven that he didn’t guess and he was right. Just then the school Intercom started.

“Students, this is you principal Miss. Silica speaking. Please stay inside the school until the storm ends. It’s going to get a lot worse. That is all, Thank you.” She said when the bell rang, indicating that it was time for lunch.

“I call dibs on the best grilled cheese.” Barbra said, bolting to the door, and was gone before anyone else realized it.

“That sister of your’s is freaking fast. I wonder if she gets that from the chameleon in her?” Garble asked

“You know, I wonder the same thing.” Spike said walking to the door, followed by Garble. They soon made it to the cafeteria, and Garble was proven right.

“HA, See I told you!” Garble cheered.

“I never doubted you. I'm more worried about who’s here today.” Spike said gesturing towards the school’s football team.

“Yea, they always have to eat in here, since it’s raining.”Garble pointed out, while he and Spike got their food. “So, where do you think-” Garble was cut off from tripping and spilling his food all over three of the football team’s members.

“Shit.” Spike whispered to himself. The whole team got up and walked to the fallen drake.

“I’m gonna make you hurt for spilling that on me.” The most drenched jock said, picking Garble up by the throat.

“Hey knock it off!” Spike said, setting down his plate.

“You want some as well punk.” The jock holding Garble said. Spike just winked at Garble and he threw a punch at the jock holding him up. Garble jumped back beside Spike as the rest of the football team charged them. Spike ran towards the one in the middle and dropkicked him, and he went flying. Before the jocks could turn around to see what had happened to him, Garble started to punch one of the jocks that was closest to him and lead him to Spike. Spike had just gotten up and was immediately surrounded by the rest of the team. Garble jumped over Spike as he jock following him runs into another. Spike started to do what looked like a break dancing move but started to kick everyone around him. Some of the jocks fell to the ground while others went flying.

“Where did the jock you dropkick go?” Garble asked, looking in the direction where he went flying. There he saw Barbara fighting him and she looked like she was winning. The jock threw a right hook and she did a backflip, dodging the attack. Her scales began to lose all color and suddenly she vanished. A second later she appeared behind him and punched him in the back of the head, knocking him out cold.

“Miss me boys.” She said, walking towards Spike and Garble.

“Maybe.” Spike said back. All of the sudden the cafeteria doors flew open, revealing all of the teachers. They walked over to the fallen jocks and checked if they were still alive.

“Who did this!?” The teacher from before asked.

“I did!” Spike replied. Garble and Barbara looked shocked. The teacher walked over towards Spike and wrapped up his sleeve. He raised his claw to slap Spike in the face. His hand came flying down and was suddenly stopped. Spike was now holding his wrist and then began to bend it back and down. The teacher was trying with all his might to rip Spikes claw off of him. Spike eye’s flickered and turned blood red. The teacher received a hard kick to the side and was sent flying, towards the other teachers. One of the students that was in the massive crowd around the battle cried “GET HIM!” and the students began to flood the three. Spike, Garble and Barbara then got back to back and got into fighting positions. Barbara then disappeared, leaving the two behind. The first student to get to Spike was tripped by Spike’s feet, and was twisted sideways by force. Spike the kicked him in the stomach and sent him flying into dozens of other students, knocking them down like rolling pins. Garble was deflecting strikes with his hands and threw some of his own punches into the fray. Barbara appeared behind the teachers and had to choose one to disable. She punched the principal in the back of the head, knocking her out cold. The teachers that were not in the fray were now alerted to her presence. Barbara next tries to kick another teacher, but was stopped. The huge gym teacher had grabbed her leg and then threw her into Garble, winding both of them.

“Guy’s!” Spike said in worry. At this point Spike and Garble had taken out all the students and the teachers were the only one’s left standing. Then the gym teacher walked straight towards Spike

“You need to be punished.” Spike got into his fighting stance. The gym teacher’s walk turned into a sprint as he quickly made his way to Spike. He raised his claw to slash Spike and he forced it down on the boy. Spike barely dodged it. He then tried to swing his leg around him and kick the teachers side. When Spike leg made contact with the scales of the teacher, Spike felt several sharp pains and a crack.

“AAAAH!” Spike cried as he grabbed his leg and fell backwards. The teacher just started to laugh. Spike, with his other foot, started to kick the teacher crotch repeatedly.

“OW! YOU LITTLE SHIT!” The teacher yelled grabbing Spike’s still good leg. He then brought his hand up high and brought it flying down, breaking Spike other leg completely. Spike groaned and yelled in pain.

“Help!” A different teacher said before he was knocked unconscious.The gum teacher turned around to see the rest of the teachers were on the ground and saw Barbra and Garble were responsible for it.

“SPIKE!” The two said, finally able to get a clear view of Spike. The teacher turned around and rushed the two. Barbara disappeared while Garble charged head on. Barbara came out of nowhere with a huge frying pan and hit the teacher in the face with it. His face was indented in the pan, and it knocked him unconscious.
“Spike talk to me!” Garble said making his to Spike. Barbara followed behind him with a horrified look on her face. “Come on man we’re getting you to a hospital, stat!”Garble said with Barbara and him helping Spike up and out of the building.

"Fancy~" An Amazon woman said, stepping into a office. She had a perfect pair of E cup breasts. She also had pure white fur with a pink mane and tail.

"Yes dear?" Fancy Pants answered. He was almost covered in papers, and was currently typing on his computer.

"Are you done? It's starting to get cold." The mare said rubbing her arms. Fancy got up and walked to her.

"Almost my dear." Fancy said kissing her on the lips. He then walked over to his coat rack and grabbed his coat. "Just finishing up." He handed her his coat to put on." I'm waiting on my night guard. You can stay here if you want."

"You know I can't. My mother’s visiting, remember?" The mare said, covering herself with the jacket.

"Yes I do, I was just hoping for some company." Fancy said walking back to his desk.

"Sorry honey, but I have to go." She walked over to Fancy and kissed him on the lips again. "Goodbye dear, I'll see you at home." The woman said walking to the door.

"Oh, Fleur!" Fancy said trying to get her attention. She stopped right in front of the door. "If you see my night guard tell him I'm waiting on him." Fleur just smiled and waved as she shut the door behind her. As she walked through the hallway she eventually made it to the main room, where she felt like she was being watched, but when she looked, nothing was out of the ordinary. She heard the door open and shut and looked to see a drake enter the building.

"Hello." Fleur said with a smile.

"H-Hi, who are you?" Spike said, trying to not to stare at her amazing breasts and hide his boner.

"I'm Fleur Dis Lee, happy to meet you."

"I'm Spike Damascus, happy to meet you to." Spike said with a nod.

"Ah, the robot boy! no offense."

"None taken, I've been called worse." Spike said, sneaking a peek at her breasts. This didn't go unnoticed by Fleur.

“Well, Fancy is in his office and he wants to see you. It was nice to meet you.” She said with a bow, showing her massive cleavage. Spike staried at the amazing breasts, but he eventually caught himself and looked away.

“Um, it was nice to meet you too.” Spike said swiftly moving to Fancy office.

“Boy’s. So easy to tease.” She giggled as she walked out.

“Come in.” Fancy said sitting at his desk. Just as expected, Spike walked through the door.

“Hi.” Spike said, taking a seat across from Fancy.”I’m guessing you want to know what happened?”

“Nope.”

“Then why did you want to see me?” Spike asked confused.

“I want your story. I just watched the School footage and you are an amazing fighter. But you had your legs then, yet you don’t now. So if you don’t mind me asking, how did you get those.” He said, pointing towards Spikes legs.

“It, was the night my father came home….”

Flashback

“.... I was in my room, still with my broken legs.”

“SPIKE, WHERE ARE YOU!” A male voice echoed though the home. Spike limped into the living room.

“What do you want.”Spike said with venom. There was a big grey dragon standing their chugging a bottle of moonshine. He stopped chugging and threw the bottle to the ground.

“I got a phone call from the school, you were expelled!” He said with anger rising.”You little Fuck. Do you have any idea how much money I had to give them for you to go there!?”

“Yea, nothing. They took me for free. Like all students.” Spike was then punched to the floor.

“Don’t back talk me boy!” He said, kicking Spikes legs. Spike just hissed in pain.”You’re nothing but a disgrace! You have lost all privileges to live in this house, and your legs!”Spike’s eyes widened at what was about to happen. The grey dragon grabbed Spike’s legs and…

“...He, ripped them clean off.” Spike sighed as he was about to finish.”After that, my drunk of a father, left me there and Barbara took me to Garble. The bastard is amazing at machinery, and he made me these. It was for a robot he was making so these are prototypes. I’ve been running from home since that day and I made it to ponyville. So I decided to settle down.”

“Wow, I’m sorry for asking.” Fancy said surprised by the tale.

“It’s fine, you had a right to know.” Spike said getting up. “Now, if that’s all you wanted to know, then I will ask to leave. I would like to get started.” Fancy was surprised.

“You, would like to get started... ?” Fancy said thinking Spike would be mad.

“Yes, I saw those recordings, but like last night, I’ll show that I don’t die easy. I can take them.” Spike said with confidence. Fancy smiled and got up from his chair.

“Well then, good luck young one.” Fancy sid walking past the drake and to the door.

“I don’t believe in luck.” Spike said as Fancy left. Spike followed but instead he went to where he would be working. In the back room Spike sat down to watch as all the lights in the building turned off.
