> Spike and Rainbow's Friendship Mission > by Dashie1791 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter One "The Mission Begins" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my first attempt at a clopfic, bear with me people. Twilight's jaw was almost to the floor, she couldn't believe her eyes. The cutie map was summoning for a friendship mission. It had been awhile since the cutie map went off, and the mane six were wondering if the map would ever call them for a mission again, but Twilight soon discovered that the map indeed still works. But that's not what had Twilight surprised. The map was summoning just two ponies for the mission. She recognized Rainbow Dash's cutie mark, but the other mark was not a member of the Mane six, not Starlight, but Spike! Rainbow Dash raced into the map room with her cutie mark pulsing, showing her that the map was calling her. Spike came into the map room huffing and puffing as his green scales were doing the same thing. The two of them came to the table to see what was going on. "My cutie mark went off while I was training with the Wonderbolts", the Blue pegasus said, "I didn't think i'd ever see the map go off again, who am I going with?" "I am not accustomed to my scales going off like this, especially when i'm trying to take a nap", Spike scowled, "But it's exciting i guess, who am I going with?" Twilight pulled her jaw closed and then looked at her two friends. "According to the map, the both of you have been called to do a friendship mission together", Twilight replied. "I still can't believe it, this is the first time that this has happened, I never thought the map would ask for the two of you." Twilight then looked at the purple dragon and the cyan mare, who were looking at the map, and then looked at each other. Then to Twilight's surprise the two jumped in air and high fived. "Awesome" they both said. "This is going to be some much fun", Rainbow said excitingly. "Yeah", said Spike, I finally get to leave Ponyville to go on a friendship mission." "Hang on you two!", said a familiar voice. Before the two friends knew it, they were both frozen still. Twilight was using a temporary magic freeze spell on them. "I don't think going on this mission is a good idea!" "Aww c'mon Twilight", complained Spike, "Why in equestria not?" "I just don't think it's safe!" The purple alicorn explained. "You're still just a baby dragon Spike, and you've only been on one friendship mission" she continued. "Plus this mission could be very dangerous, who knows what's out there in northern equestria. There could be dangerous manticores, there could be terrifying swamp beasts, you could get sick from some terrible disease that i can't probably cure!" Twilight babbled on and on until Rainbow Dash intervened. "Don't worry Twilight, Spike will be fine. He will be traveling with the greatest flier in equestria, the bravest pony in all of equestria, and don't forget the coolest!" "Believe me he will be in good hooves" Rainbow Dash finished with her chest out. "I still don't know", said Twilight, "I'm just not comfortable with the maps decision. I think the map might actually be on the fritz this time!" "I would feel more comfortable sending Applejack, or Fluttershy or maybe even Pinkie Pie" Twilight declared. Spike rolled his eyes and let out a sigh. "They've all got their own things to do, plus i'm now on a break from the Wonderbolts. C'mon give the guy a chance", said Rainbow sweetly. "Besides it's been awhile since we got to hang out and do something, it's also gives him a break from being your slave" she said jokingly. She started to laugh and Spike thought it was pretty funny as well and joined in. As they finished laughing, they looked at the stern looking purple pony who had one eyebrow raised. "Assistant!" Twilight corrected, "Spike is my assistant, not my slave!" She then sighed and knew it would be no use arguing with the pegasus. "Alright, i'll let you guys go on the friendship mission," she then looked sternly at Rainbow Dash right in the eye. "And if anything happens to Spike during the mission, i'll cut all your important feathers on your wings off to a point that it will take a year for them to grow back!" Rainbow Dash gulped and then looked down at the worried looking dragon. "She's right Dash, she's been doing a lot of studying based on pegasi and she's not kidding," Spike winced. A few hours later................................. Spike had gathered all of things that he thought he might need for the mission. Twilight even made sure that he had what he needed. "Backpack(Check), tent(Check), sleeping bag(Check), pillow(Check)". The list was all to high strung that it was too much for the young dragon to bear. So he made sure to pack things that he wanted, like one of his comic books, Ruby gems for him to snack on, and of course his favorite picture of his favorite pony (Crush) Rarity. "Can't forget that" Spike thought to himself. "How much she will think of me now that i am now going on friendship missions out of Ponyville". Spike made his way to one of the lush grass fields out by Ponyville. High above was Rainbow Dash's house and Spike was told to wait underneath her house cause she needed some time to prepare. Well it seemed like forever cause Rainbow was taking her sweet time getting ready. Spike started to nibble on one of his rubies that he brought with him for his trip. After he finished it, he opened up his bag and started to read his comic. He was halfway finished by the time the cyan pegasus finally flew out from her house and then buzzed Spike so fast that it almost blew his comic away. "Rainbow!" Spike shouted to the rainbow mare. "What's the big idea?" "I've been waiting for you for almost an hour!" Rainbow meanwhile was up above him chuckling, she loved to get under the little dragons skin. "Sorry Spike," said Rainbow as she landed beside him trying hard to not laugh. "I was packing for the mission and then i fell asleep, must've been more tired than i thought" she finished with a yawn. She then grabbed Spike's comic with her mouth, and then gave it to him, Spike then grabbed his comic and then put it back in his bag. "Well I would've liked to start the mission without getting buzzed and almost loosing my favorite comic," Spike said looking the rainbow pegasus in the eyes. Rainbow chuckled again quietly and then put her hoof around him. "I'm sorry Spike," She replied, "I just like to have a little fun sometimes, but i'm ready when you are". Spike then smiled and nodded his head. Then the two friends began to head for northern equestria to begin their friendship mission. Beginning of the mission.... So far, the trip was going perfectly. Spike walked along with his bag over his back while Rainbow Dash flew above him. She would fly ahead of him to check out the path ahead, and then come back and tell him that everything was all good. The hours passed, and the trip seemed to be taking awhile. Spike's feet were starting to hurt him to a point where he had to stop every half hour and have a break. Rainbow thought this was taking too long, and knew that they were burning daylight. "C'mon Spike this is taking way too long, let's get a move on" Rainbow called. Spike looked over and knew that Rainbow was right. "I'm trying to go further distances Dash, but my feet are killing me!" Spike replied wincing in pain. Rainbow was about to say something cocky, but remembered Twilight's warning, "If anything happens to Spike you're getting the most important feathers on your wings cut off!" Rainbow gulped and then turned and looked at Spike. "Hop on!" Spike looked at her with surprise. "Are you sure?" He asked, "Are you sure you can carry me and my bag on your back?" Rainbow looked at the little dragon and smiled. "Of course I can, I'm the awesome Rainbow Dash, I can do anything! And i would never leave my friend hanging, I am the element of loyalty after all" she explained. Spike was moved by Rainbow's touching words, and quickly grabbed his bag and hopped onto her back. "Hang on Squirt", Rainbow Dash called, "This is really going to blow you away!" Before Spike could say anything they were soaring through the air going extremely fast, good thing Rainbow let Spike use her goggles. At first Spike was a little nervous, but seeing how fast the pegasus was going and how much land they were covering, Spike new that he would be safe riding on her back. Soon the sun was starting to disappear, meaning that Princess Celestia's day was over and that soon Princess Luna would be raising the moon. Rainbow then started to flap her wings very gradually and started to make her descent. She had chosen a quiet and flat spot in a meadow next to a small stream, the perfect place to camp for the night. Spike had a lot of fun riding on Rainbow's back, and was kinda sad that the day was now over. As he started to unpack for the night he heard Rainbow starting to complain really loudly, he could've sworn Rarity had joined them. "What's wrong Dash?" asked Spike. He noticed Rainbow digging through her bag. "I forgot to bring my tent and favorite pillow" She replied. Spike giggled. "You have a favorite pillow?" Rainbow then quickly turned her head and then glared at the young dragon. "Yes I do, and don't go telling any other pony that!" She snarled. Spike nodded and then Pinkie promised not to tell any other pony. "Oh well, it don't matter, I'll just find a small cloud and sleep on that instead" Rainbow said. Spike was surprised that she said that. "Nonsense Rainbow, you can sleep in my tent that i brought" Spike suggested, showing her the tent that he bought some time ago. The tent was definitely big enough for the two of them, and Spike had even managed to bring an extra pillow with him. Rainbow eyed the tent, she smiled and then chuckled. "Sorry Spike, but i only share tents when I'm with Scootaloo." Spike rolled his eyes and then started to make a fire. "Suit yourself but if it gets cold outside and the fire dies out, I'm not getting up to re-light it" Spike declared. Rainbow Dash laughed. "I've slept outside many times and have never gotten cold, I am totally used to this". She was flying about 2 feet off the ground when she was saying this. Spike raised his eyebrow. "Even during the end of Summer? It gets cold out here this time of year". Rainbow laughed again, this time nervously. "Yup totally!" Later that night.... As the day turned into night, the two friends were sitting around the fire roasting marshmallows. They were having a good time, talking about their adventures and all of the stuff that had happened over the last couple years. Rainbow then needed to use the little fillies room and then flew off to take care of her business. While Rainbow was gone, Spike then decided to look at his picture of Rarity that he brought. Looking at the picture of his favorite pony made him slightly sad. He was excited to be on a mission with Rainbow Dash, but deep down wanted to go on the mission with Rarity instead. He was lost in thought and so preoccupied with his picture of Rarity he didn't even hear the blue pegasus return. "Hey what do you have there?" asked Rainbow. Spike jumped and quickly put the picture back in his bag. "Holy Sweet Celestia Rainbow, don't scare me like that!" Spike shouted. The pegasus couldn't help but laugh, it was just too funny. "Sorry Spike I couldn't help it, you were just lost in dream land I just had to make sure that you were still here". Spike calmed down, and then began to blush. Rainbow smiled, and then gave him a hug. "Don't worry buddy. I know what you were looking at, it's totally fine that you have a crush on Rarity. I think it's cute the way you look at her every time you go see her". Spike was surprised at what Rainbow said, he didn't know what to say at first. "How could you possibly think that?" Rainbow chuckled. "This ain't the first time I've seen somepony with a crush on some other pony, let's say that i have been around the barn a few times". This made Spike a bit more comfortable, this was Rainbow Dash after all. "Yeah you're right, I do have a crush on her" Spike confessed while looking at his feet. Rainbow smiled and replied. "Told ya"! Before long, the blue pegasus and purple dragon were yawning hinting that it was now time for bed. "Goodnight Spike" Rainbow said, as she headed for the cloud that she found earlier. "Night Dash" Spike replied as he headed into the tent. Spike settled into his bed that he had made for himself, he knew Rainbow would probably get cold outside so he made a bed for her anyway just in case. As Spike looked up at the ceiling of the tent he thought to himself. "I'm very lucky to go on this Mission with Rainbow. I really like hanging out with her. She's great company and I'm lucky to have her as a friend". Meanwhile Rainbow was making her way up to her cloud. She made herself a small makeshift bed and then lay flat looking up at the stars. She also began to think to herself as well. "I'm very happy to go on another mission. It's been far too long but I'm very happy to go on it with Spike. He's a good friend and I'm lucky to go on this mission with him". It had been only four hours but Rainbow Dash was shivering badly. The cold was getting to her and she knew that if she didn't get somewhere warmer she'd get sick. "Brrrrrrr", Rainbow stuttered with her teeth chattering. "S-Spike was right, it really does get c-cold out here this time of n-night, m-maybe the fire he lit is still g-going." Rainbow got up from her cloud and flew down towards the camp, expecting the fire that Spike started to still be going strong. But to her disappointment the fire was completely out, just the embers from inside the little fire pit was all that was left. Rainbow tried to wrap herself around the fire pit, hoping to get some kind of heat from it but no luck. The blue pegasus was now freezing to death, She now knew what she had to do, she had to go inside the tent and admit defeat. Rainbow quickly doused the embers with water, just to not start a potential brush fire. As she finished, she began to unzip the tents zipper with her hoof and then her wing. But as she was opening the tent, she heard some strange noises coming from inside. "That's strange" she thought. She then peeked inside and noticed that there was a small lantern beside Spikes bed, and then she saw something that surprised her. From what she could see, Spike was moving his hand up and down his mid section and quietly moaning. A rush of emotion shot through Rainbow Dash. "He's playing with himself" she chuckled to herself. But to her amazement Spike was very endowed. She didn't think Spikes member would be that big, especially for his age. Rainbow soon forgot that she was cold and then began to feel horny. Then the blue pegasus put her hoof down on her sex and started to rub her pussy. The sounds of Spikes moaning was now getting louder and were making her even more horny. She continued to watch Spike stroke his massive dragon member, she could see pre cum forming at the tip of the head. Rainbow was now rubbing her clit more passionately and faster as she was so turned on by what she was watching. She quickly had to bite her wing as she rubbed her clit more violently as Spikes moans were getting louder, hinting that he was getting ready to cum. Before long as if their minds were connected they both came together. She could see Spike shooting massive loads into a handkerchief that he kept by the bed as she could feel her wetness down by her slit on her hoof from her intense orgasm. She totally felt warm now after this experience, and was totally lost in her own thoughts. "Holy Moly Spike, I didn't know you were packing that massive fun toy down there". She gave herself a few minutes before she fully entered the tent. Spike was now fast asleep, but the lantern that he had in the tent was still left on. Then Rainbow noticed the bed Spike had made for her, and noticed a little note that said. "Told you that you would get cold". She smiled and then looked over at the young dragon. She patted him on the head and gave him a small kiss on the cheek. She then laid down on the bed, put her head on the pillow and pulled the blanket over her. The bed was very comfortable to lay on, much to her surprise if felt like sleeping on a cloud. Before she drifted off to sleep she knew that what she saw was no dream, and that she would have to force herself not to say anything the next morning....... End of Chapter One.... > Chapter Two "Secrets" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sun was starting to rise as Rainbow Dash awoke from her slumber. It had not been an easy night for her, there was so many thoughts racing through her mind that she didn't get much sleep. She turned her head and looked over at Spike who was snoring quietly, his blanket wrapped around him tightly and a little drop of drool forming at the corner of his mouth. Rainbow thought it cute the way that he slept, and then she remembered what happened last night. The sight of Spike stroking his rather large dragon member was something that she definitely didn't expect to see. The way it looked, the way that he was moaning and how passionate his face looked when he came. It made her feel special inside, but now she was having these strange emotions run through her head. She started thinking that maybe she should've went in the tent even sooner, maybe ask him if she could help him out. She thought about what his dragon cock would feel like inside her, the intense feeling of his member bottoming out with every thrusting motion. She thought what his member would taste like inside of her mouth, and what the feeling would be like when he would be going down on her slit. The thoughts were coming in like a flash flood, the temptation was so unbearable that she couldn't take it. She was going to tell Spike everything that had happened, but when she woke up she realized that she had been dreaming. She had slept for a little bit longer and when she looked over to her left, noticed that Spike was not there. Rainbow gasped in horror as she wondered were Spike could've gone. She then noticed a pleasant aroma through the air. Two familiar scents to be exact. The first smell she recognized was the smell of coffee, and the other one was even sweeter. "Pancakes!" She thought. Rainbow began to open the tent, and then she noticed Spike was making Pancakes over the fire that he re-lit and the coffee pot was brewing a fresh pot of coffee. "Morning Sleepyhead" Spike called to his Rainbow maned friend, "I hope you like Blueberries and Banana mixed with your pancakes?" Rainbow was in awe in what Spike had prepared for her. The spread was rather large and it looked wonderful. "Morning Spike" Rainbow Dash replied, "Yes i love those in my pancakes, its my favorite." Spike smiled and soon handed her a plate with about six hot cakes with syrup on the top and a bit of whipped cream to boot. "These really look delicious", she called to Spike. "I hope so", he replied, "I got a new recipe from Pinkie Pie and i have been meaning to try it out". Rainbow looked at her plate of pancakes, and then she took a small bite from the top one. A burst of flavor shot through her mouth, so many delicious flavors at once. Before long she had completely devoured her plate of hot cakes and by the time she was done she looked up and noticed Spike was staring at her. He hadn't even gotten to his pancakes yet, but seeing how much Rainbow seemed to enjoy them made him chuckle. Rainbow then wiped her face and then shoved her plate over towards Spike. "More please" she said with a beaming smile. "But I'm out of Pancake mixing" he replied, "I can't make anymore". Rainbow Dash then gave Spike a devious sly smirk, and then stared at him like a lost puppy. She was trying to do her best Rarity face. Spike groaned and gave her four of his pancakes off his plate, much to Rainbow's excitement. "Thank Celestia I've got rubies", the young dragon said to himself. After breakfast, Spike then proceeded to clean up the mess that they left behind. Rainbow was having her last sip of the coffee that Spike had made. It wasn't like the coffee Rarity made but it was sure close enough. "That pancake breakfast was really good Spike" Rainbow Dash said while finishing her coffee. Spike looked over from cleaning the dishes. "Yeah I noticed" he jokingly replied, "And your welcome Dash". Rainbow smiled and then laid back and stared at the blue sky. "Hey Spike?" She asked, "Why did you not wake me up when you woke up this morning?" Spike had just finished washing the dishes when she asked him the question. "I thought you might want a bit more sleep" Spike replied, "by the way you looked this morning, you looked like you didn't have a good nights rest". Rainbow's head was then flooded with the images from what she saw the night before. She then couldn't get the image of Spike's dragon cock out of her head. She was extremely caught off guard from Spikes answer and had to try to come up with an excuse. "What? Whatever do you mean? I slept fine last night, I Rainbow Dash always have a good nights sleep" she finished while sweating profusely. Spike was surprised by her answer and then sighed. "Oh okay, just thought I'd ask." Spike then went back to finish the rest of his duties, but then Rainbow quickly flew up and landed in front of him. "Spike" she said with a sorry look on her face. "I'm sorry that i responded like that, it's just that I.." She was cut off by Spike who put his index finger to her mouth. "It's okay Dash. There's no need to apologize. I understand that you have your reputation to uphold so don't worry its totally fine" Spike said kindly. Rainbow blushed. She was surprised by Spikes answer, and thought it was very nice of him to say that to her. Rainbow then decided to go for a quick fly just as Spike went back to resume his duties. Before she flew off, Rainbow Dash called to down Spike. "Thanks for making a bed for me, I actually really enjoyed sleeping in the tent last night." Spike smiled and then called back. "No problem, that's what friends are for". Later in the day........ It was shortly past noon before Spike and Rainbow Dash entered northern equestria. The weather remained nice but the cyan pegasus could see that there were storm clouds on the way. "We better hurry and find the village with the friendship problem!" Rainbow Dash called to Spike. Spike then gasped. "Which village? We never did find out which village we are supposed to go to!" Spike replied. The day before..... "Where are we supposed to go looking for a friendship problem?" Asked Spike to his alicorn friend. "I don't know" Twilight said, "The cutie map is all over the place for some reason. It's not showing exactly where you and Rainbow Dash need to go, it's all over the place!" Rainbow Dash scoffed. "Well how are we supposed to figure out where the friendship problem is?" Twilight gulped and then turned to her two friends. "I have an idea, but you two aren't going to like it!" Present day..... "Oh celery stalks " Rainbow Dash cursed. "I completely forgot that Twilight wanted us to go from village to village". Spike groaned as Rainbow began to make her descent. By now the dark clouds were starting to form in the distance, and Spike noticed a very small village in the forest. "Let's try and see if that's where the friendship problem is", the purple dragon pointed. Rainbow agreed and then took another look at the sky. "We better hurry then, by the look of those clouds we are in for quite a nasty storm" she finished. "Can't you just kick those clouds away?" Spike asked. Rainbow glared down at him. "Are you crazy? Do you see how thick those clouds are? Even if I had a bunch of other pegasi from cloudsale show up, those clouds are far too impossible to move." The blue pegasus ranted. Spike took a step back. He understood what Rainbow meant. "Calm down Rainbow. Let's just go find this friendship problem before the storm gets here" Spike finished. Rainbow took a deep breath, and then nodded her head in agreement. "Sorry Spike, i didn't mean to snap at you like that", Rainbow apologized. "You were right, I didn't get a good night's sleep last night". Spike looked at Rainbow Dash with forgiving eyes. He then chuckled. "Good thing I'm such a forgiving dragon" he said with a smirk. Rainbow giggled and then the two headed off for the village. An hour later.... "Well that was a waste of time" Rainbow Dash snorted while removing twigs from her mane. Spike couldn't agree more as he pulled a thorn out from the bottom of his foot while marking off the village on a map that Twilight had given him. There were eight villages in total! The village that they went to didn't have very many ponies living there, and the ones that were living there, were not the nicest ponies they have met. The village was also poorly looked after and had low hanging tree branches and thorn bushes all over the place. "I didn't expect my first friendship mission out of Ponyville to be this difficult", Spike said while holding his head down. "Cheer up squirt", Rainbow Dash said confidently, "I'm sure we'll find the friendship problem in the next village". Spike's spirits brightened as he climbed back on Rainbow's back, and then they headed for the next village. Later that day.... The sky was completely darkened by the time Rainbow Dash and Spike were leaving the fourth village on the map. The other three villages were a lot friendlier than the first village, but still the two friends couldn't find the friendship problem. Rainbow's wings were aching from all the flying she did in one day, she decided to walk on the ground while carrying Spike whose feet were still sore from stepping on on a thorn at the first village. Spike checked off the other three villages from the map and let out a sad sigh. "It's hopeless, we're never going to figure out this friendship problem" the young dragon said sadly, "So much for my first friendship mission, it's just going to be a failure". Rainbow Dash couldn't help but feel sorry for Spike. She wanted to mention cancelling the mission, but deep down inside she knew that they had to keep going. "I'm not giving up Spike, I refuse to let this friendship problem beat us" the cyan mare stated, "And you shouldn't either". Spike looked at Rainbow and stared into her rose colored eyes. He was going to give her a reply but his sentence was cut off by the sound of a loud "Bang!" " Ah!" Spike screamed. He got so scared that he nearly jumped off Rainbow Dash. This made her laugh. "What's wrong Spike? Scared of a little thunder?" She asked while chuckling. "I'm not afraid of thunder!" The little dragon snarled, "I just didn't expect it that's all"! The two friends were soon running along the path. The rain had now started to completely come down in a torrential downpour. Rainbow Dash was soaked all the way through her coat and her mane was everywhere and looked terrible. Spike wished that he had brought his umbrella, so instead he tried to make do with his sleeping bag which unfortunately was not waterproof. Spike was cold and began to shiver. Rainbow knew that Twilight would have her wings if Spike got really sick from being out in the wet and cold. "Hang on Spike" Rainbow Dash called as she looked for the nearest cover away from the rain. She looked left and then right while running along the trail, with Spike shivering fiercely on her back. Spike then noticed something in the distance up on the hillside. "Look up there Dash" he called, "It looks like a cave!" Rainbow could barely see even with her goggles on, but then she caught a glimpse at what Spike was looking at. "I see it" she replied. She then started to flap her wings that were now completely soaked. "Hang on, this is going to be a bumpier flight than normal." She called to Spike. Spike gulped and held on for dear life as Rainbow shot into the air. Thunder echoed loudly and lightning lit up the sky as the two friends flew through the air. Rainbow had to quickly and masterfully avoid flying into all the trees that were ahead of them and she almost crashed twice. Spike didn't dare look as he closed his eyes with fright, and held onto Rainbow for dear life. Even though the situation was scary, he trusted her and knew that everything would be okay. Rainbow could feel Spike holding on to her tightly, and even though it was raining really hard outside she could feel the warmth coming from his body. She smiled as she continued to try and find the right location. After a couple more minutes, she spotted the cave. "Hang on tight, I'm going in!" Called Rainbow and started to make her rapid decent. Spike held on and gripped onto Rainbow as tightly as he could. Rainbow closed her eyes as well as she dashed in and then found earth once again. They then began to slide along the ground very quickly. Rainbow tried her best to stop but the ground was muddy and made it difficult to stop. She then tripped over a rock, sending both her and Spike tumbling head over hooves into the cave. Spike got up from the ground. As he wiped himself off, he quickly checked himself for damage. Rainbow got up and did the same. "Sweet Celestia! Are you okay Spike"? She asked nervously. Spike stood up and looked at Rainbow and then started to laugh. Rainbow raised an eyebrow and cocked her head. She was confused and couldn't figure out why Spike was laughing. "What's so funny"? Spike stopped laughing and then looked at the soaking wet blue pegasus. "Nice landing" he said chuckling, "You got a bulls eye". Rainbow was surprised and then noticed that they had landed inside the cave. She then started to chuckle as well. "Nailed it!" It didn't take long for Spike to get a fire started inside of the cave. Luckily for them there was a pile of dry wood inside, probably left behind from a previous camper. Rainbow's coat and mane were soon dry and looking sharp again. Spike was now beginning to feel warm again, and tried his best to dry off his sleeping bag and pillow. Much to his disappointment they were both ruined from getting soaked outside in the rain, and all the remaining food that they brought was also ruined. But Spike groaned when he noticed that his picture of Rarity had reduced to nothing but a ball of mush. Rainbow noticed Spike looking glum while looking at his ruined picture. "Sorry little buddy, I know how much that picture meant to you" she said trying to be comforting. Spike looked up and gave her a small smile. "It's okay, I've got another one at home", he replied. The only food that wasn't ruined was the big bag of marshmallows, a can of oats and some small rubies. Rainbow didn't feel like eating canned oats, so she stuck with the marshmallows. Spike ate a couple of the rubies and then proceeded to help Rainbow eat the marshmallows. They sat around the fire and began to roast them, but they barely said anything to each other. Spike was thinking, about how badly his first friendship mission was going, and began to look at the other four villages on the map that luckily wasn't destroyed. Rainbow Dash meanwhile was still thinking about what had happened the night before and deep down, it was still a lot to take in. She had to quickly come up with a way to distract herself, and break the awkward silence. "Hey Spike, want to play a game"? She asked. Spike looked over at Rainbow with a confused look. "What kinda game do you have in mind?" He asked. Rainbow gave him a devilish smirk. "A game where you have to tell your deepest and darkest secrets. Things that have happened that you don't want any pony to find out about". She finished. Spike nearly choked on a marshmallow. "No way, I'm not playing that game", he coughed. "I'm not telling you my secrets". Rainbow chuckled and then put her wing around him. "Oh come on Spike, I won't tell no pony. What's said in this cave stays in this cave" she said. Spike blushed and looked from side to side, and then shot Rainbow a death glare. "I only will tell if you tell your darkest secrets too!" He declared, "Tit for tat"! Rainbow looked at Spike and grinned. "Sure thing, that's the point of this game, this is going to be fun". Spike and Rainbow then both did a Pinkie promise to each other, and then shook hooves. This was going to be an interesting night....... Spike plucked up his courage and chose to go first as Rainbow sat and listened. "I was the one who took all of Rarity's jewels that she needed for the grand galloping gala" Spike squealed. "I felt bad and wanted to give them back to her. But before I could I ate all of them! They were so delicious I couldn't stop myself. I wanted to tell her the truth, but I was too embarrassed and ashamed to do so". Rainbow Dash fell back laughing as Spike blushed even more and looked at the ground. "I had a feeling that was you" the cyan mare chuckled loudly, "Boy was Rarity cheesed about that! You shoulda seen the look on her face!" Spike gulped again and then looked at Rainbow. "Okay Dash, it's your turn". Rainbow stopped chuckling, cleared her throat and then began to tell her secret. "I took all of Applejack's apples that were on her apple cart and switched them with fake ones that time at the carnival" she admitted. Spike giggled and then burst out laughing. "That's funny", he said trying to get his breath. Rainbow started to laugh as well. "It's not funny, it's really funny!" She laughed. The two continued to tell each other's secrets well into the night. They soon revealed to each other who painted Fluttershy's cottage purple, who hid Pinkie's party cannon and who replaced Twilight's books with quesadilla recipes. They were all pretty funny but they weren't really that bad and Rainbow knew this. "C'mon Spike, you gotta have better secrets than that?" Rainbow finished. Spike stared at Rainbow Dash and shook his head. "Uh uh, no way no how! Forget it!" Rainbow rolled her eyes. "Then what's the point of playing this game if you don't want to share you're deepest secrets?" She asked considering her dark secret from the night before. "I told you that no pony is going to find out about what happened, we each did a Pinkie promise to each other so it's totally fine". Spike gulped and stared at his feet. "I realize that" he exclaimed, but I just can't..." Just then Rainbow groaned and then cut him off. "Don't be such a chicken!" She snapped, "Just do it"! Spike knew that there was no way Rainbow Dash was going to let him off easy. He knew he had to tell her everything. Spike then took a deep breath, and then stared the pegasus right in the eyes. "You know I like Rarity right?" Rainbow rolled her eyes and nodded in agreement. "Yes Spike, so what of it?" Spike did the biggest gulp that he ever did, and finally revealed his dark secret. "Well I may of watched her take a bath a few times". Rainbow was surprised by Spike's secret and then shrugged. "Is that it?" She asked him. Spike blushed. "I have also watched our friends take a shower as well, I couldnt help myself". Now Rainbow was really intrigued and very curious. "Did you watch me in the shower?" She asked with curiosity. Spike looked up at her and then nodded. "I watched you at the spa a few days ago" he confessed. Rainbow gawked at Spike with one eyebrow up and then chuckled. "You are a little perv aren't you?" She joked. Spike was now really embarrassed. "Please you can't tell any pony. If Twilight or any of the others find out I did that, I'll be in big trouble!" Rainbow Dash gave Spike a pleasant and innocent smile and then winked. "I told you before Spike, what's said in this cave stays in this cave, but now its my turn". Rainbow stood straight up and then began to tell Spike her dark secrets. "I have made out with Applejack, I have had sex with Pinkie Pie a couple times, I have given Big Mac a blowjob once and I let Twilight go down on me three times". "As fun as it was, none of them could handle my awesomeness" She joked. Rainbow seemed to go on and on while she explained all her dark secrets. Spike was shocked at first, but then he kinda started to enjoy what she was telling him. Rainbow had slept with a lot of ponies, most of them were mares but she explained that she was also into stallions as well. Spike was so taken in by what Rainbow told him, he didn't know what to think. You think you know some pony right? "Wow Dash, you've got a lot of dark secrets", Spike said trying to contain himself. Rainbow smiled and then beamed with pride. "I am pretty awesome aren't I?" She replied. Then she turned to Spike again. "So Spike, you said you have watched all of our friends including me take a shower. Now tell me, which pony is sexier? It's Rarity isn't it?" Spike was taken off guard by this question. "Why do you ask Dash?" Rainbow shrugged. "Just curious" she replied, "just want to know who you think the sexiest pony is." Spike looked at his feet and did a slight cough. Rainbow was expecting Rarity, but then when she heard Spikes answer she nearly feel back in shock. "You are!" Spike confessed. End of Chapter 2. > Chapter Three "Night in the Cave" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow had to give her head a shake, as she couldn't believe what Spike had said. "Come again?" She asked in bewilderment. Spike stood up straight and repeated himself. "You Rainbow Dash, are the sexiest pony that I have ever seen, and I have had feelings for you since the day I met you" he finished now completely out of breath. Rainbow was speechless. Was this for real? She had to give her head a shake. Spike panted profusely while trying to catch his breath. This was by far the biggest secret he had. Rainbow's face then turned a shade of pink. "Spike, that's one of the nicest things any pony has ever said to me" She said softly. "But i thought Rarity was the pony that you had a crush on?" Spike then cleared his throat. "She will always be the one pony of my dreams, but no pony drives me crazy like you Dashie" Spike explained. "Since the day I met you, I always thought you were cool. But when I saw you in the shower at the spa the other day, you're the only pony that I think about". Rainbow's mind was once again filled so many thoughts, this was a lot of information for her to digest. She always thought Spike was pretty cool, and thought of him as a great friend. But hearing him say that he had feelings for her made her heart race. She had to tell Spike the truth about what happened from the night before. She exhaled and told Spike everything. "Spike, I have to tell you something". "What is it Dash?" Spike asked. She sat down beside the young dragon. "I saw you masturbating last night when I was coming into the tent, and I played with myself while I watched you" She revealed while trying not to sound completely foolish. Spike looked up at his friend, and then grabbed her hoof with his paw. "I knew you were there all along" he admitted, "I was masturbating to you the whole time". Rainbow Dash looked at Spike with shock. "Y-You w-were?" She stuttered. Spike nodded his head. "But why didn't you say something last night or even this morning?" She asked. "Well I was hoping that you would maybe come into the tent last night, but when you didn't I decided to just continue anyway". He admitted bashfully. "I didn't want to bring it up this morning cause the timing didn't seem right". "I wanted to wait for the right time, I just didn't expect it to happen like this!" Spike finished. Rainbow took in Spikes words. She knew that he was speaking from the heart and she admired that. "I was going to tell you everything this morning" she said. "I have had that envision of your cock in my mind all day and it's been driving me crazy. I really didn't think you were carrying such a huge package!" Spike blushed and then looked away. "Well no pony really took time to notice" he sighed. "I wanted to show Rarity badly but I was too nervous to ask her. I knew that Applejack would apple buck me to the Las Pegasus if I asked her. Fluttershy would probably faint if I asked her. Twilight would probably be offended if I asked her and then probably kick me out of the castle" Spike ranted. "And Celestia only knows what Pinkie would say. She probably would do something so crazy that it would probably scar me for life." Spike finished. Just then Rainbow Dash put her wing around the young dragon, pulling him closer to her. Spike was about to speak when Rainbow planted her lips on his and kissed him. Spike at first taken off guard but then went with it. Spike put his paws behind her ears as the two made out with passionate kisses. He liked getting kisses from Rarity, but making out with Rainbow Dash was one hundred times better. Rainbow was taken in by their tender kiss. The smoothness of his lips and the way his tongue felt on hers made her feel special inside again. She then could feel herself getting wet, and the feelings of pleasure were now through the roof. She then looked down, and was taken in by the familiar sight of his member. The familiarity of it's shape and length and how smooth it looked. Then Rainbow broke apart from their passionate locking of lips panting heavily. "Well I noticed Spike, and I think it's definitely worth looking at up close" She said with her bedroom eyes staring deep into his. She then began to move her hoof down towards his semi hard cock, and then began to rub it against his shaft. A sudden jolt of pure ecstasy shot through his whole body as Rainbow began to move her hoof up and down his length. To Spike it was one of the best feelings of pleasure he had ever felt in his whole life. Though he had never had sex before, he was not going to ruin the moment by cumming too quickly. "Uh" Spike grunted. "Please don't stop Rainbow, It feels so good!" Rainbow Dash giggled and she brought Spike down and laid him down on the ground beside the fire. "You haven't felt nothing yet!" She declared while giving him the sexiest look possible. Rainbow then using her wing took his rock hard member, and then inserted it into her mouth. Spike almost jumped with the sudden amount of pleasure that was coursing itself through his whole body. He could feel the wetness from every passionate slurp and gag from Rainbow's incredible blowjob, and the way she used her tongue to wrap itself around his shaft was very satisfying. Rainbow thought the way Spike's cock felt in her mouth was strange but very interesting. It was unlike sucking off another stallion's member that was so wide and boring, but Spike's member was so much better to her liking. The way she could fit it into her mouth and then into her throat. She then went as deep as she could right to his testis, and hardly made a sound. It just seemed so much easier to deep throat him than trying it on a stallion, his was shaped differently which made it easier for her. The way she went down on his cock impressed Spike. He wouldn't expect anything less, not from a pony like Rainbow Dash. He had always thought a blowjob would feel great, but the way Rainbow was doing it definitely worth waiting for. As Rainbow's head bobbed up and down on his length, Spike could feel himself getting close to want to orgasm. He then used his paws to force her head deeper onto his cock, which hinted Rainbow that he was enjoying it and that he was very close to want to cum. She went up and down his shaft three more times until Spike let out a massive shout, kinda almost like a roar. Rainbow Dash spluttered as Spike shot his massive load into her mouth. She was surprised by his taste, and thought it tasted sweet but had a hint of saltiness. Spike continued his massive orgasm into the cyan pegasus's muzzle and then took it out with the last two spurts landing on his stomach. Spike panted as Rainbow swallowed the load that he had given her. She then used her wing to wipe her muzzle clean, lapped up the cum on his stomach and then gave him a pleasant smile. "Well, how was that big guy?" She asked while catching her breath. Spike quickly came to his senses and then let out a huge sigh of satisfaction. "That was amazing Rainbow" he replied. "I loved it very much. Rainbow chuckled and then laid beside the young dragon with content in her eyes. Spike wondered what signals she was trying to send him now. "What are you doing?" he asked with a puzzled look. Rainbow then looked over at him and then smirked. "I'm glad i could pleasure you Spike, but now it's your turn to pleasure me!" she said while placing her hoof over her wet slit. Spike was nervous. This was something that he wasn't sure if he could do properly, but deep down inside he knew he had to try. He soon got up and moved over towards the blue mare, and then made his way towards her dripping sex. The color of light pink intrigued the young dragon, and the aroma that came wafting from it was very sweet smelling. Spike took a deep breath and then using his claws to spread her open. Rainbow moaned in extreme pleasure as Spike spread her slit apart, and then inserted his tongue inside. The feeling of it was unlike anything she had felt, and thought it was the most amazing thing ever. Spike used every length of his tongue to make sure that Rainbow received the best pleasure from him as possible. The taste from her to Spike was not the same as it smelled, it tasted even better. It tasted that of a very large aged gem, and that to Spike made him feel happy. Then he moved his tongue towards her clitoris. The feeling made Rainbow Dash moan loudly as Spike licked her clit, at first up and down and then in circles. The sensation of Spikes tongue on her sensitive spot made the pleasure all too much for Rainbow. His tongue was just perfect for this. The feeling was everything she had thought about. Her legs began to shake as he continued to go down on her. Rainbow had gotten to the point that she was going to orgasm. And this was going to be a big one. "SPIKE!" Rainbow shouted. "I'm gonna cum!" The intense feelings spread through Rainbow from her head down to her legs are she came. Spike could feel every drop from her sex against his face and tongue. It was unlike anything he had dreamed of, and to Spike thought it was an eye opening experience. Rainbow looked at the ceiling as her passionate moment had completely left her breathless. To her, the satisfaction was by far the best she had ever had. "That was amazing!" Rainbow gasped as she looked at Spike. He was completely fixated on her and was once again hard. The look in his eyes told Rainbow that he wanted her and she wanted him too. She didn't care that she was tired, she wanted to feel his length inside her. "I'm ready Spike", said Rainbow as she spread her legs. "I want to feel every inch of your cock inside me". Spike was more than happy to oblige. He then spread her legs even further, while holding his member in his right claw. Without any hesitation he entered her slowly, his tip passing through the threshold and then went deeper inside of her. Rainbow moaned with pleasure as Spike pushed into her vagina until he couldn't go any further. With that be backed up and began his slow thrusts. The pleasure shooting through their bodies like a bolt of lightning. The feeling was now breathtaking as Spike thrust his hips back and forth. The wet sounds of his cock going in and out were faint but then began to get louder. The way her insides wrapped around his shaft was intensely satisfying. She began to get tighter and tighter with every thrust and Spike thought it was way better than getting a blowjob. Spike moaned and growled as he continued his thrusts. Rainbow loved the feeling of Spikes cock inside of her. She felt every inch of him and could feel his testicles land against her slit with every thrust. To Rainbow this feeling was incredible, but she now wanted even more pleasure. "SPIKE!" Rainbow moaned loudly. " What?" Spike asked panting profusely. "Spike please go faster!" Rainbow said. "I want you to bang me as fast as you can!" Spike grinned, and then picked up Rainbow and brought her on top of him. His member still inside of her. Rainbow laughed deviously as Spike started to run his cock inside her at a faster pace. "Bad dragon" Rainbow exclaimed. "Show the greatest flyer in Equestria that she's been a bad mare!" Spike was giving Rainbow all he had while driving every inch of his cock deep inside of her. His balls slapped her vagina with every pump and every thrust. The sensation to Rainbow was so intensely satisfying that she could feel herself preparing for another orgasm. Spike started to pound Rainbow Dash even harder, and then could feel himself getting very close to cumming. Rainbow stared deep into Spikes emerald green eyes while moaning loudly and passionately. They then locked lips and began to make out again. The added satisfaction of their lips on each other's added even more pleasure, and then they began to show signs of their approaching orgasms. "Rainbow I'm going to cum", Spike grunted. Rainbow put her hooves behind Spike's head and rested her forehead on his. "Spike please cum with me" she said panting heavily. "Cum inside me! I want to feel all your spunk inside me!" Spike nodded in agreement and then proceeded to release all his pent up sexual energy. Together Spike and Rainbow grunted and then both screamed as they came together. Rainbow could feel every shot of Spike's cum enter her insides. The feeling of his cum deep inside her sex was very warm and it felt great. The amount of pleasure from her orgasm while Spike came made Rainbow very happy. She then collapsed on top of Spike with his member still remaining inside of her, a look of sheer satisfaction on her face. Spike could feel his cum oozing out from Rainbow's sex and continued to run down through his midsection towards the floor. But Spike didn't care. Both he nor Rainbow Dash had the energy to move, they just remained perfectly still and looked into each other's eyes again. No words were said as Rainbow and Spike once more locked lips. They're lust for each other that night, had shown them that this moment was in fact very real and very passionate. Spike then put his arms around Rainbow Dash and pulled her closer to him, to which made her feel loved and wanted. A small tear formed in her eye which she quickly wiped away. Then the two of them closed their eyes and went to sleep by the fire that was still burning. This night had turned out to be one of the best nights the two friends had ever experienced. But the question remained. What would they say to each other in the morning? Would this be a one time only experience? Or would this be the beginning of something else? Something that they would continue in the future? Maybe even something that would could change their lives forever! End of Chapter 3. > Chapter Four "Feelings & Urges Part 1" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sun was no where to be seen when Rainbow woke up from her nights rest. She could see that the weather was still storming outside and the rain continued to pour down. She knew that this day there would probably be no seeking a friendship problem, not until the storm cleared. She was still resting on top of Spike who was completely passed out, and snoring very quietly. Rainbow smiled as she took in the sight of the young dragon, for whom she had spent some very passionate time with the night before. Somehow to Rainbow, just from spending time with Spike these last two days had probably been the most fun she'd had in quite some time. And then she also realized that Spike had also grown in size as well. She decided to not get up yet, but cuddle with the young dragon instead. She closed her eyes and laid her head on Spikes chest, listening to the rhythmic beat of his heart. The sound was very soothing to her. It made her feel at peace with the world, like being up in the sky and going for a fly. She began to fall into a slight trance as she continued to listen to his heart, but then she noticed that it's rhythmic beats were now more out of sync and now pounding rapidly. Rainbow opened her eyes and looked up at Spike. He was now awake and staring at her with a smile as big as a house. He then began to rub her mane with his paw and stroke it back and forth. Rainbow had not felt a sensation quite like this but she rather enjoyed it. The two then once more locked lips and made out ever so passionately. Their kiss lasted for more than two minutes before their lips broke apart from each other. "Spike, you were absolutely amazing last night" said Rainbow as she used her hoof to do figure eights on his chest. "That may of been the most fun I have had in quite awhile, you sure know how to make a pegasus feel special". "And you did very well, besides it being your first time and all" She added. Spike grinned at Rainbow and hugged her tightly. " You were amazing too Dash" Spike replied. "But how did you know that was my first time? I never told you that if I have had sex before or not." Rainbow looked up at Spike. A sly smirk spread across her face and then she giggled. " It doesn't take an expert to know that you haven't been with any other pony before" she exclaimed. "I was going to mention it to you but the way that you were pleasuring me last night I took you for a pro". She finished, patting Spike on the head. " So how do you feel about spending your first time with the coolest pony and the awesomest flyer in all of Equestria? She asked. Spike stared at the cyan pegasus and looked into her rose coloured eyes. "I wouldn't of done it with any pony else" He confessed. Rainbow blushed and rested her head on his chest as Spike continued to rub her mane. Then a flash of light lit up the cave and the sound of thunder echoed outside. He looked outside groaned as he watched the rain pour down. "So much for completing the mission today" Spike said sadly. "Guess we're stuck here until the storm clears." Rainbow nodded and turned to the young dragon. "As long as you're here with me, it doesn't matter to me the slightest," She replied giving him a wink. Spike blushed and winked right back. He then looked over at the fire pit. He saw that the fire from last night now had stopped burning. All that remained was some small embers on the inside. "I better get that fire going" He said to Rainbow, "it's going to get cold in here again". But Rainbow stared Spike deeply in his eyes and refused to move. She was too comfortable to want to go anywhere. "Give me twenty minutes Spike" the blue pegasus said sweetly. "Its just that the heat from your body feels nice, and I want to cuddle a little longer". Spike was taken in by Rainbows answer. He then wrapped his arms around her even more and kissed her on her forehead. He knew that Rainbow was the one pony that he had feelings for, but spending his first full night with her made him feel happy and also made him feel that he was wanted. Something he had never felt before. The warmth from Rainbow lying on top of him gave Spike intense feelings that flowed throughout his body. The feeling was almost simular to the sensations he had rushing through himself the night before. He then began to feel tingly and then noticed that his member was once again starting to become erect. Rainbow's eyes were closed when she felt something touch her on the inside of her leg. She then opened an eye and peered down in between herself and Spike and was taken in by the sight of Spike's rock hard member poking her. She then laughed and gave Spike a seductive stare. Then using her wing she began to stroke him. The intensity of her wing stroking his cock up and down felt better than doing it himself. She then proceeded to go faster and faster as Spike began to moan very quietly. The sound of Spike's moaning was enough to please Rainbow Dash as she gripped his cock even harder. She then moved slightly downward to position her mouth directly over his length and then without hesitation inserted it into her maw. She could still taste how his cum tasted from the previous night. This put her off slightly but then continued to please the purple drake. She went up and down bobbing her head as fast as she could while listening to Spike's rapid panting. She then began to tilt her head slightly from side to side while having his shaft in her mouth and began to massage it with her tongue. Spike's eyes widened as Rainbow began to perform her style of fellatio. The sensation was pulsing through his body, and his lips went dry as she sucked him. He then grabbed her behind the ears and began to rapidly insert his cock in and out of her mouth. Rainbow was taken by surprise but was turned on tremendously by what Spike was doing to her. Spike began to moan loudly and his panting increased as he banged Rainbow's mouth. The feeling was incredible to him, and began to prepare for another mighty orgasm. With three more good hard pumps, the drake howled loudly as he then forced Rainbows mouth down on his length and began to release his essence into her throat. Every shot forced it's way down the cyan mares throat so much, that she had to swallow at least five times to take in his massive load. The taste of him this morning was different than the night before. She noticed that Spike tasted more tangy and a bit saltier. She then laid beside him and collapsed to the floor out of breath. Spike panted heavily as Rainbow laid alongside. " Where did you learn that?" Spike asked. Rainbow chuckled and then gave her reply. "Learned that from Spitfire the other day at flight camp" the blue pegasus replied. "Been meaning to try it out on somepony since" she finished. Spike giggled. "Guess I was the lucky one" he said sarcastically. Rainbow chuckled and gave Spike a small jab in his side. ............................................................................................................................ Spike had now began to get another fire started while Rainbow Dash was doing her stretches. The weather outside was not letting up and the rain was falling harder than before. The thunder and lightning had now stopped for the meantime but Rainbow knew it could come back at any time. With the fire now burning brightly, the cave then began to warm up which made the two friends feel much better. But as Spike was going through his bag it dawned on him. He remembered that they didn't have much food left. All the good food they had got ruined in the rain, so Spike couldn't make pancakes again. " We need to get food and fast!" Spike declared. "We pretty much went through all the marshmallows last night and I'm outta rubies". " What do we have left besides the can of Oats?" Rainbow asked worriedly. Spike looked in the bag and gulped. "That's it" He said. Rainbow moaned loudly and then looked outside. The weather was not suitable to go outside and look for food in. She then cringed as she looked at the can of Oats. It was not the most tasty stuff in the world, but it was better than nothing. "As much as I hate canned Oats, we need to eat something before we starve" Rainbow declared. Spike couldn't agree more. His tummy was rumbling something fierce. He then had envision. "If we get some water and mix the oats in and boil it we can have oatmeal" Spike explained. Rainbow smiled as Spike got his medium sized pot from his bag. He then went to the entrance of the cave and placed the pot outside to collect rainwater. From the way the rain was pouring outside, it didn't take very long for it to fill up. Spike then collected the pot and placed it over the fire so it could boil. "One order of oatmeal coming up" Spike said as proudly as he could. This made Rainbow laugh. While they waited for the water to boil, Rainbow and Spike sat beside each other. Spike had her hoof in his paw as she wrapped her wing around Spike. She then pulled Spikes towards her and kissed him softly on his forehead. Spike then began to rub the sensitive area in between her wings and began to give her a massage. Rainbow sighed with pleasure as Spike rubbed her wings. " Where did you learn how to give a good wing massage?" She asked. "Twilight makes me rub her wings down all the time" Spike replied applying more pressure. "Gotta keep her stress levels down, her being a princess and all". Spike then pressed inwards between her wings and then using both of his paws pushed hard until he heard a loud "Pop!" Rainbow winced in surprise and then quickly lifter her wings upwards. She then noticed that her wings felt energized and didn't ache as much as they did before. "How did you do that?" She asked in bewilderment. "One thing about growing up with a bookworm like Twilight, you get to learn a few things about pegasi in the process" Spike admitted proudly. "Guess I'm just a egghead too huh?" He asked. Rainbow looked at Spike and kissed him on the lips, and the two once again made out passionately with tongues entering each other's and the passing of each other's saliva. They continued this until the water in the pot began to boil. They soon broke off their tender moment, and then went to get as much food into their bellies as possible. It was now sometime in the afternoon as Spike and Rainbow Dash finished eating their oatmeal. It wasn't the same since they didn't have any milk or sugar to mix in with it, just the last of the marshmallows added to the mix. It helped it a bit but it was still rather boring. The portion of oatmeal that Spike had made was a decent size portion, but there was only enough left for Just one of them. As Spike walked around the cave he began to feel restless. It was unfortunate that the weather was so nasty outside, it made the time in cave too much for the young dragon to bear. Spike soon made his way to the entrance of the cave, and peered outside to get a glimpse of the outside world. It felt like it had been forever since they had been on this mission, but in reality it had been only three days. Spike could see the rain pouring down with massive rain drops hitting the ground creating pool after pool. The wind had began to pick up as the trees swayed from side to side. As Spike continued to look outside, he saw something that caught his eye. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. What he thought might have been his eyes playing tricks on him was actually real. In the distance Spike saw a small plume of smoke. He had to squint to get a better look at it, but then he could just barely see the point of a roof. It was a cabin out in the woods. "Dash come here quick!" Spike called. Rainbow came over towards Spike who was pointing towards the background. She then peered outside. "What are you looking at?" She asked staring at Spike with her head cocked. Rainbow had to look very closely but after a few seconds, she finally caught a glimpse of the small rooftop in the distance. "I never saw that cabin yesterday, good spot there Spike" Rainbow Dash said giving him a small jab in the arm. "We can go check it out tomorrow when the weather lets up". Rainbow turned to her left and noticed that Spike was not there. She then headed back into the cave and saw that Spike was packing his bag. The cyan pegasus was surprised by this. "Where do you think you're going?" She asked sternly. Spike had just finished putting his ruined sleeping bag over his body to make a makeshift parka. "What does it look like?" Spike replied, "I'm going to go to that cabin and see if they got any food". Spike had just finished packing his bag, but then the cyan mare blocked his way. "You're not going out there Spike, it's too nasty outside and you could get lost! Twilight will lose her marbles if something happened to you!" Spike looked up at Rainbow and scoffed loudly. "You sounded just like Twi just now. Don't worry about me, I have a pretty good sense of direction" Spike boasted. He then pulled his parka over his head. He then proceeded to make his way for the entrance, but just then Rainbow grabbed him by his tail and stopped him. "I'm sorry but i'm not letting you go Spike" She declared. Spike was going to snap at her, but then he looked into Rainbow's eyes. He had not seen her give him such a worried look before, and to Spike he knew that she was really cared for him. A tear came into his eye which he quickly wiped away, he then grabbed her hoof and kissed her on the lips. "I'll be fine Dashie, I'm not a little dragon anymore. I'll be okay" He said trying to be comforting. Rainbow wanted to say something, but the words couldn't come to her mouth. She just stared at the young dragon into his emerald green eyes and simply nodded. Spike then gave her a quick rub on her head and then headed outside into the pouring rain and the powerful gusts of wind. As Spike disappeared from view, she felt her heart pounding through her chest. She promised to Twilight that Spike would be okay as long as he was with her, but seeing how determined he was to go and find them food at a cabin that appeared to be quite a ways away made her feel proud that he was growing up into a brave drake. But then seeing how empty and lonesome the cave was and knowing that she was now alone, made Rainbow feel a bit different. There was an urge pulsating throughout her body. An urge to not want to be alone, but an urge to want to be with Spike for as long as necessary. Rainbow sat beside the fire, while the thoughts began flowing through her mind. The sex with him made her feel special inside and outside, but to her a new thought began to race through her head. "Am I......" "Am I falling in love with........" "With Spike?" ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Spike was fighting to just keep his homemade parka over his head as he braved the strong winds and pouring rain. He knew that the cabin he spotted was out there in the woods, and he knew that he was going in the right direction. Right? He was trying ever so desperately to stay in the direction of the cabins location. And because of the wind, rain and difficult terrain it was starting to become a problem, one that Spike didn't predict. He struggled on till he found his way to a small pond in the middle of the woods. It was covered in lily pads and surrounded by tall trees on either side. The pond itself looked rather deep and Spike had no intention of finding out himself. By now his makeshift parka was now starting to leak through from the rain, and the blowing wind made Spike shiver. He then decided to make his way along the bank and go around the pond. There was tree after tree directly in the path that Spike was trying to walk through, and if he was not careful he would end up in the pond. Spike took great care as he walked along the bank trying to get a grasp of things. The wind then seemed to increase and then rain intensified even more. Spike then went to reach for a low hanging branch, but then he lost his footing and then fell into some mud. Spike coughed as he spit the wet earth from his mouth. It was not the most pleasant taste Spike had tasted, it reminded him of when he was younger back in Canterlot when he tripped while playing tag with some younger ponies and got a mouthful of dirt. This taste Spike was getting reacquainted with just brought back bad memories. After spitting out the earth taste from his mouth, Spike brushed himself off and continued to try and find the cabin. Spike had finally managed to navigate his way past the pond, but by now he was completely exhausted. Spike was now soaked as his parka had come apart completely and was no longer holding itself together. He groaned as he took his failed invention off. Spike's body was now exposed and the wind and rain didn't help him feel any better. He began to shiver even more as he tried to continue his search. He tried blowing flames onto his paws to try and warm them but the wind made that even difficult. He began to think that he maybe should of stayed back in the cave where it was dry. He then began to think of how Rainbow Dash was trying to get him to stay with her and just wait for the storm to end. Spike began to think about how warm it was back in the cave, how much he enjoyed Rainbow's company and how she made him feel last night and that morning. Spike was now lost in his thoughts that he totally forgot his surroundings and didn't even notice the loud "BANG!" A lightning bolt had struck a tree in behind Spike, and the wind began to push the tree over towards him. Spike heard loud crunching and splitting noises in behind him and then he turned around. The large tree was now halfway over from its resting place and was now just as few feet above the young dragon. Spike was frozen in fear as the tree came crashing down towards him. He tried to move but his legs wouldn't move. Spike closed his eyes and prepared for the worst, when he was suddenly whisked from his feet and was now flying through the air. "I got you little buddy!" Called a voice. Spike peered out from one of his eyes. His eyes caught a glimpse of blue wings and a familiar rainbow colored mane. "Rainbow Dash!" Called Spike. Before long Rainbow Dash had safely landed on the ground and hid under a large branch from one of the trees. Spike panted profusely as he tried to get his bearings. The thought of the tree falling and almost landing on him was too much, and if it hadn't been for Rainbow he surely would've been crushed. Before he could say a word, Rainbow took her hoof and slapped Spike across his face. "What the hay was that for?!" Spike exclaimed. But before he got a reply Rainbow then pulled him in under her wing with her hoof and hugged him tightly. "I was so worried about you" she replied. "Its a good thing I found you otherwise you would've been squashed! If that would've happened I would never be able to face Twilight again as long as I live!" Spike knew he didn't need to say any more. He could tell from Rainbow's shaken up voice and the trembling throughout her body that she was indeed worried for his safety. He felt bad for leaving her behind in the cave and he felt even worse for making her feel worried about him. He began to cry. "I'm sorry Dash, I know I should've stayed back at the cave. I didn't mean to give you such a scare like that, i'm really really sorry". Spike whimpered. Rainbow nuzzled Spike and wiped the tears from his face. She had began to cry a little bit too but she wiped them away with her wing. Spike hugged Rainbow as tightly as he could and then gave her a kiss on the cheek. Rainbow smiled as Spike showed his affections for her. She blushed and then she looked at Spike straight in the eyes. She had to tell him her feelings. "I need to tell you something Spike" she said, but before she could say anything else he grabbed her by the hoof. "You can tell me later Dash, but let's get out of this weather and go back to the cave." Spike advised. Rainbow couldn't agree more and then nodded her head. Spike grabbed his bag and then proceeded to walk back the way he came until he felt her hoof tap him on his shoulder. He then turned around and was stunned by what he was seeing. About two thousand yards away in the distance was the cabin Spike had spotted with smoke coming out of the chimney. It didn't matter how much he had to fight his way through the wind and the rain in the forest, he still managed to keep going in the right direction, and that made Spike proud of himself. "Not bad Squirt, not bad at all" Rainbow said happily. Spike smiled brightly, but before he could say anything another flash of lightning and loud rumble of thunder split the air. Spike and Rainbow jumped with surprise, and then quickly began to make their way to the cabin. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................. The cabin was definitely old, but it appeared to be in good shape as if some pony had been doing work to it on again and off again. As they approached the door, Rainbow knocked on the door as loudly as she could. No one answered the door which was upsetting to Spike, but then a large gust of wind blew the door open. The two friends were taken by surprise that the wind had managed to blow the door open. They then quickly had a look inside. The inside of the cabin looked very well looked after, despite from a few pieces of raggedy old furniture it seemed very cozy. And despite that the cabin didn't belong to them and the owner wasn't no where to be found, Spike and Rainbow needed to get out of the wind and rain. "I'm sure who ever owns this cabin won't mind us staying out of the rain for the night" Rainbow mentioned to Spike who was hunkered by the small fire that appeared to been light quite some time ago. Spike was too cold he couldn't give her his reply, instead he gave Rainbow the thumbs up instead. The two warmed themselves by the fire until they were both dry. Spike had managed to find himself a bowl of gems hidden inside the cupboard. He felt bad for eating them, but he was so hungry that his mind told him to. Rainbow helped herself to some hay chips that were sitting in a bright silver serving dish. "Do you feel bad for eating this food that's not even ours?" Spike asked nervously. Rainbow looked over at Spike and replied with her mouth full. "A bit yeah, but whenf youv gotta eat youv gotta eatf" she replied. Spike chuckled and then proceeded to finish the gems. After he was done, he decided to look through the cabin which seemed almost entirely empty. Spike then found a single bedroom and a bathtub in the other room. Spike knew a warm bath would feel good right about now. Spike then got the water to the right temperature and began to fill the tub until it got half full. He then slunk his way into the tub until his whole body was underwater, he let out a comforting sigh and then closed his eyes to relax. Spike was soon drifting off into the land of unknown as his mind began to think about the day that had been so eventful. The thoughts of being with Rainbow, the time spent in the cave and then the moment where he almost got crushed by that massive tree. Spike began to think what would of happened if he did get crushed. How would it effect Twilight? How would it effect his friends? And how would it effect Rainbow Dash? Spike's thoughts were dawning on him. It was almost like a bad dream. He had began to relive the whole moment and this time Rainbow was no where to be found. Spike screamed loudly as the tree came crashing down towards him, but then his screams turned to mumbles as he began to feel like he was drowning. Spike then opened his eyes frantically as he then began to choke and cough up water. Did he slink under the water and fall asleep? As he looked forward a slim, soaked and giggling blue pegasus had appeared in front of him. Rainbow Dash thought it would be funny if she did a cannonball into the tub. "Rainbow!" Spike snapped while coughing. "What are you trying to do? Drown me?" Rainbow chuckled but then stopped as Spike continued to cough and catch his breath. " I'm sorry Spike, I didn't know that you had fallen asleep" She apologized with her ears flopped down. Spike then felt bad for snapping at her. "Its okay, no harm done" he replied. "But you're the one cleaning up this mess you made". Rainbow then quickly stepped out of the tub and began to mop up the water off the floor. After she cleaned up, she then went to join Spike this time without making a mess. Spike then filled the tub with a bit more water and began to once again relax. As he sat back looking at the ceiling he could hear the sound of the wind blowing against the windows and the raindrops pelting against the roof. The sounds of thunder could still be heard but now seemed to be getting further away. Spike then remembered that Rainbow Dash was going to mention something to him, so he straightened up and looked at the cyan pegasus who was also relaxing. "Hey Dash, what did you want to tell me earlier?" Rainbow quickly opened her eyes and immediately sat up. "I said I had something to tell you?" She asked looking confused. Deep down inside her mind she wanted to tell Spike that he meant everything to her and that she loved him, despite him being a dragon and all. But for some reason she couldn't tell Spike how she felt. The words she wanted to say stuck in her mouth like glue and wouldn't come out. " You said that you wanted to tell me something earlier" the young drake said again. He was puzzled by how strangely Rainbow Dash was acting. The cyan pegasus had to think hard. If she didn't say anything, then things between her and Spike could go downhill and get awkward. She had to say something and fast! "I was going to mention to you that you're a pretty good navigator Spike", Rainbow said nervously. "I wasn't sure that you could find that cabin in that storm but you sure proved me wrong." Spike was surprised by her answer. It just didn't seem right of her to say that. "It wasn't hard, I just stayed in a straight line as much as I could" He admitted. Rainbow sighed and then quickly looked away. She felt stupid for saying such utter nonsense. Spike looked at his pegasus friend and cleared his throat. "Rainbow, there is something I want to tell you!" Rainbow ears quickly pricked up with curiosity and she turned to face him. "What do you want to tell me Spike?" Spike breathed in and out and began to tell Rainbow Dash what was on his mind. "I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I'm sorry for deciding to leave you behind in the cave and I'm really sorry about making you feel worried about me." He confessed. Rainbow smiled as Spike continued. "And I wanted to thank you for saving my life. If it hadn't been for you I wouldn't be here right now." Rainbow smiled and then chuckled loudly. "It's no problem Spike, I am the element of loyalty after all. And I never leave my friends hanging!" Rainbow replied. Spike then continued. "These thoughts I have had in my head these last few days, I have had them in my head for awhile now. I didn't know if they were true feelings or not. But when you saved me, I knew that the feelings that I have been having have been true, and that's why I have to tell you this." Rainbow had been listening to what Spike had been saying, and she had began to feel that what he going to say what was she had been feeling inside her mind. "I..." Began Spike. Rainbow sat forward even more. "I like being with you, but I think we are taking things way too fast!" Spike finished. Rainbow was surprised by what Spike had said. It was totally different than what she was expecting him to say. "Yeah Spike, I agree with you." Rainbow said. "I really like you too and we did have fun together the other night. But maybe we should take things easy from here, maybe just until the mission is over." Rainbow's ears flopped downward and she stared into the water. "Are you okay Dash?" Spike asked. Rainbow slightly nodded, and then got out of the tub and quickly grabbed a towel to dry off. "Yeah I'm good, all good here. Really." She said trying not to show her sadness. She then covered herself and slowly walked out of the bathroom. Spike let out a deep sigh. He knew that those won't the words he wanted to say. Spike felt deep inside that Rainbow Dash was definitely the pony he wanted to be with, and he wanted to admit to her his true feelings. But he felt that telling her how he truly felt would make the friendship mission more difficult to complete. Spike then pulled the plug in the bathtub and grabbed himself a towel and dried off. Later that night...... By now the weather had slightly died down and the rain had let up, signs of the storm coming to an end. Spike had hung up his towel to dry and headed for the living area. He let Rainbow have the bed for the night and he decided to sleep on the small couch. But as Spike laid his head down and stared at the ceiling he began to think some more. He did want things between him and Rainbow Dash to work, and he did want them to take things slowly and not rush into things. But why was she on his mind so much? And why did he have the sudden urge to go to her room? Rainbow laid perfectly still on the medium sized bed that was in her bedroom. As she was lying down she started to think about the thoughts in her head. She wanted to tell Spike that she loved him, but he wanted to takes things slowly. Rainbow did want things to work between them and she did respect his decision, but she had a strong urge to go to Spike. An urge that she couldn't get out of her head. She had tried desperately to drown out these thoughts that were pulsing through her mind, but no matter how much she tried it was too much to bear and she couldn't sleep. The tension was now at a sky high level and Rainbow had had enough. She let out a sigh and jumped out of the bed and then began to make her way to the living room, her thoughts following her inside her mind. By now Spike had been awake for what seemed like forever, but had really been four hours. The thoughts about Rainbow, about how she saved him from his certain death, about how much he loved being with her that night in the cave were flowing through his mind like a raging river. He felt like things between him and Rainbow were going to fast, but to Spike was it really a bad thing? He knew she was the coolest, the bravest, the greatest flyer and the sexiest pony in not only Ponyville but in Equestria. He began to think about what if she was his marefriend and how would their relationship work out together? The thoughts were buzzing through his head like a swarm of angry bees, and it was beginning to really get to Spike. He then began to think. Did he really have strong feelings for Rainbow Dash? Did he really love her? Then Spike decided that enough was enough. He then quickly jumped off the couch and began to make his way toward Rainbow's bedroom, with his thoughts following him close by in his mind. The two came face to face in the hallway, with eyes wide open and their minds racing at a hundred miles an hour. But no words were said as the two embraced each other with a hug and then locked their lips together. The two made out with each others tongues rubbing against each other's, the tastes from each other passing through their mouths. Rainbow had put her hoof behind Spikes head, while he had both of his arms around her head and both paws in behind her ears. Their eyes would gaze into each others a few times as they made out with other. Then Rainbow broke apart from their kiss, a strand of saliva separating between her tongue and Spikes and looked lustfully into Spikes eyes once more. Spike had then taken his right paw and began to rub it against her marehood. The feeling of her moist wet lips brought back the lust and passion back into his body, and he began to get aroused once again. He quickly rubbed her clit in small circles as Rainbow moaned quietly but ever so passionately. He then took his middle finger and inserted it into her dripping wet sex and began to move it back and forth. By now, the pleasure was too much for Rainbow Dash as she began to grind upon his finger, and then using her wing began to stroke Spikes hard erect girth that had once again made it's appearance for her. Spike panted heavily as she went up and down massaging his cock with her wing, the sensation was once again so appealing and it brought a large smile to both their faces. Spike began to use his finger even faster as he banged Rainbow's vulva, She then began to stroke his length even harder and even faster. Spike had the urge to climax, as too did Rainbow Dash. He then quickly removed his fingers from her slit and then grabbed her behind her flank and then soon had her on her back while holding her in his arms. Rainbow was amazed by Spike's sudden strength as he began to walk slowly to the bedroom. He then looked at Rainbow once again gave her a sly smile. "My turn to carry you!" He stated sarcastically. Rainbow then chuckled and laid her head on Spikes chest as he then walked into the bedroom and shut the door. End of Chapter four........... > Chapter Five "Feelings & Urges Part 2" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: This chapter is straight sex. Also @N@L $£X included as well. ............................................................................ Spike carried Rainbow into the bedroom and then placed her on the bed. She then began to giggle as he proceeded to lick the sensitive spots on her body. With every lick and twirl of his tongue against her was enough to send chills down her spine. Rainbow moaned with pleasure as Spike began to move downwards towards her marehood. He then began to use his tongue to massage her clitoris while using his two front fingers to enter her. The pleasure made Rainbow squeal loudly as she was serviced by Spike. He then removed his fingers and entered her pussy with his tongue and began to lick her on the inside. As Spike went from side to side with his tongue inside her slit, he then began to rub Rainbow's sphincter. Rainbow's eyes went as big as saucers as she felt the most intriguing sensation, one that she had not felt before. She began to bite her hoof as Spike continued to give her this unfamiliar type of pleasure. A few minutes later Rainbow then used to her hoof to insert Spikes finger into her ass. Spike was surprised by this and looked up at her. "Come now Spike, don't be shy." Said Rainbow. Spike was more than happy to oblige. He then began to move his finger back and forth as he proceeded to pleasure the blue pegasus. To Spike the inside of her anus felt different than the inside of her vagina, it just felt more smoother and less moist. By now the urge inside of Spike was now greater than it had ever been. He then grabbed his shaft and began to penetrate her marehood with his finger still inside her ass. It didn't take long for Spike to enter into Rainbow's sex, and with every thrust he gave her the familiarity of the inside of her slit felt terrific and it gave him even more reason to go faster. He positioned himself more up on top of her and drove every inch of his cock deep inside her. The sounds of wetness could be heard from every thrust, his panting increased and the feeling of his cock being sucked inside of Rainbow was electrifying. Rainbow was now in complete satisfaction as Spike pounded her. She stared deeply into his emerald green eyes and moaned with desire. To Spike the look she was giving him was that she wanted more. He then stopped his thrusting and positioned Rainbow onto her stomach. Her wings shot straight up as he re-entered her from behind. The feeling of being pounded in this position made Rainbow squeal even louder as her vagina was pleasured, and from this position Spike could go even deeper. The feeling was immense for Rainbow as she turned and faced Spike placing her hoof on her clit and began to rub it. Her wings curled and straightened as she felt every inch of Spike's length go deeper and deeper inside of her. The sensation was now at its peak, and Rainbow could feel herself preparing for a massive orgasm. Her moans increased hinting to Spike to go even faster than before. Spike then proceeded to thrust his hips until he was bumping into Rainbow's flank. She then moaned louder than ever, and then with a mighty scream began to cum. The force from her intense orgasm sent Spike backwards as he was bucked off from the inside. It was the most powerful orgasm Rainbow had felt in her life, and looked downwards and noticed that Spike and the sheets had been completely drenched. "Wow, Dash that was amazing," Spike panted while catching his breath. The feeling in Rainbow's legs had gone completely numb, and she felt tingly on the inside. She laid down on the bed for a few minutes while Spike massaged her hips and legs. After a few minutes she then began to get the feeling back in her legs. Then she grabbed Spike and pulled him towards her, the two then once again locked lips. Afterwards, she broke from their kiss, she was now beginning to feel even hornier than before and wanted to take things up a notch. She put her lips beside Spike's ear and whispered. "Spike, I want you to put it in my ass!" Spike's member immediately became rock hard again. Spike was unsure of what Rainbow had said to him, he loved pleasuring her but to do this was totally on another level. "Are you serious?" He asked. Rainbow then looked at him and gave him a frown. "Are you that dense?" She asked. "I asked you to put your cock inside of my ass!" Spike could see that she was definitely serious and that she really wanted more. If that's what she wanted, that was what she was going to get. Spike then kissed her once more and then positioned her back on her stomach. Then using both claws grabbed her by the flank and spread her sphincter open and then using his tongue began to lick her hole. Rainbow moaned as Spike began to prepare for insertion. The feeling of his serpent like tongue licking her anus was weird at first, but then after a few licks she began to enjoy it. She had never had anal sex before, so this experience was going to be unlike anything she had ever done. Not just for her but for the both of them. She now couldn't wait anymore and began to rock her flank back and forth towards Spikes face. "Give it to me big boy", Rainbow said seductively, "This pegasus has been naughty and needs to be taught a lesson!" Spike immediately became even more aroused and then positioned himself behind her flank. He then began to prod her anus with the tip of his shaft and then slowly entered inside her. Spike was amazed by the feeling of his cock inside of Rainbow's ass, the sensation was different than going inside her slit. At first he went slowly so not to hurt Rainbow Dash, but then he began to go back and forth even more and a little bit deeper. By now his shaft was going halfway into her backside, the feeling getting better after every thrust and the sensation reaching an even greater height. Rainbow was nervous about how this style of sex would be like, but after feeling Spike's shaft in her ass, his hot breath on her back and his rapid panting she began to want even more. "Harder!" Rainbow whispered. Spike could barely make out what she had said, but he decided to be cheeky and have a bit of fun with her. "What's that? I didn't hear you!" Spike grunted with a smirk on his face. Rainbow rolled her eyes. "Harder!" She said loudly. "Come again?" Spike asked during mid thrust. He was having too much fun with this. Rainbow growled and moaned even louder and then shouted her demands. "HARDER! I WANT YOU TO BANG ME HARDER SPIKE! I WANT TO FEEL EVERY INCH OF YOUR COCK INSIDE MY ASS!" Rainbow yelled. Spike chuckled deviously. He then gripped her flank and then began to enter into Rainbow Dash even deeper. "You've got it." Spike obliged. Spike then began to push even harder, and began to drive his cock deeper inside of Rainbow Dash. The intensity of the increased pleasure was even better to the purple dragon. He then rocked his hips back and forth until he could feel his sack slapping against her flank. Rainbow grunted with delight as Spike continued to satisfy her. She then began to rub her clit again and this time rubbed it even harder. With Spike pounding her deep inside her ass, the pleasure that she was experiencing was without a doubt going to be her biggest orgasm yet. Her moans were now even greater and more intense than before, and her contractions inside began to wrap tightly around Spike's shaft. With every thrust Spike was now inching ever so closer to his orgasm. The contractions were now getting tighter until Spike couldn't take anymore. He began to pant heavily telling Rainbow that he was now just moments away. She rubbed her clit more rapidly and then began to scream loudly. Upon hearing her scream with pleasure, Spike then growled with ecstasy and released his mighty load into Rainbow's rectum. His orgasm was by far bigger than he anticipated, and his cock slid out from her ass and shot three long strands of his spunk onto Rainbow's chest. She was taken into the land of total satisfaction and was out of breath to even say anything. She just wiped off her chest with her hoof and then licked it clean, tasting every drop of his cum that had landed on her. She could feel his essence flowing out from her anus and onto the bed, which she then wiped away. Spike was now completely exhausted, and his legs felt like they were made of rubber. He let out a sigh and laid beside his tired cyan pegasus friend who was collecting her thoughts. The two looked at each other and then both made out again. No words were said between the two of them as they then attempted to get out of the bed only to both fail and go crashing onto the floor. The two laughed and then began to crawl their way into the bathroom to once again have another warm bath. While they were in the bathtub, they didn't say a word to each other. Spike would gaze over at Rainbow and smile at her which she would also do as well. After they got washed up, they then headed back to the bedroom and began to prepare for bed. The bed was in a mess from their previous activity, and had to fix it up in order to sleep in it. Still no words were said between the two of them as they worked to fix the bed, and when they were done they both climbed in. Rainbow took the left side and Spike took the right side. They were now snuggled into the bed and both laid on their backs looking at the ceiling. The rain had now dissipated and the wind had completely died down. Spike felt confident that tomorrow they would finally complete the friendship mission and both head back to Ponyville. But as he looked over at Rainbow who was still lying completely still with her eyes open, he knew that he had to say something to break the silence. There was the pony that he had feelings for, had sex with three times and told that he wanted to take things slow. But he knew how much she mean't to him and deep down in his heart, he knew that he wanted to be even closer with her. He then turned over on his side to face his special friend. Rainbow noticed that Spike had then turned to look at her. She then turned onto her side and then laid face to face with him. Spike smiled as he stared into her rose coloured eyes and then took a deep breath. "Rainbow, I wanted you to know that I.." Spike was cut off as Rainbow put her hoof to his mouth and shushed. Then she grabbed him with her wing and brought him closer to her. She had closed her eyes as she snuggled with him, and began to make out with him. Spike ran his claws through her mane as he kissed her, and then she whispered to him. "I love you too Spike." Spike smiled brightly and wrapped his arms around her tightly. No more words were needed to be said as the two then fell asleep in each other's arms. This mission had brought the two of them closer together and now had changed their relationship with each other. But in a way that will change things for the better. End of Chapter Five. > Chapter Six "After the Storm" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- .............................................................................................................................................................................................................. The Next Morning: A tall slim stallion with a silver coat and a dark blue mane was walking through the forest with two large bags hanging off either side of him. The weather was now cooperating, the birds were singing and Celestia's sun was breaking over the hills, and Luna had now lowered the moon. The silver stallion then saw a fairly large old wooden cabin in the distance, the cabin looked very familiar to him as it should. This cabin was his cabin! As he approached the cabin he noticed that a small plume of smoke still remained from the chimney, and that there was hoof prints leading into the cabin. He then began to think to himself. "That's weird, I could've sworn that fire would of burned out hours ago? And I don't remember any pony being here last night". "Unless........" The silver stallion then quickly opened the door into his cabin and noticed that there was definitely activity there the night before. There was hoofprints and claw marks all over the floor in the entrance way, and there was some food left out on the table by the small couch. He began to think if maybe he had been robbed, but there was nothing much to steal, and he began to think that maybe whoever was in the cabin, had not decided to leave yet. The stallion then headed towards the bedroom, he noticed that there were towels hanging on the towel rack and laying on the floor in the bathroom and they were still damp. He then opened the door into the bedroom, and peered inside. He noticed that the bed was indeed not empty. As he approached he could see a female blue pegasus with a rainbow mane and a male purple dragon. At first he was surprised to see this unexpected couple, a pegasus pony and a dragon sleeping together in the same bed and in each others arms. He could also tell by the pile of used bed sheets off to the side of the bed, that there was way more than sleeping going on in that bed last night. The stallion chuckled to himself and then decided that he had to give them a wake up call. "Hey you two, get out of bed!" The stallions booming voice echoed through the bedroom, but to his surprise they couple didn't move an inch. The stallion let out a sigh and then tried again. "Hey Lovebirds! Get out of bed!" In her dream Rainbow Dash was dreaming about flying over Equestria with Spike on her back and the two began to have a picnic on top of a cloud. She thought it was the most exciting and romantic dream that she was having, until the Wonderbolts flew past doing one of their stunts, and after they had finished they came over to the picnic and sat down with the two of them. Rainbow was expecting Spitfire or maybe even Soarin to say something cool but all that came from their mouths was something unexpected. "Hey Lovebirds! Get out of bed!" Spike was having a dream where he went on a mission with his new marefriend Rainbow Dash and they were on a mission to find all the rarest gems in all of Equestria. In his dream they soon found a rather large cave and the entrance had every kind of gem just pouring out of the cavern. Spike looked over at Rainbow, and then began to rush over to the pile of gems that looked way to good to be true. He was about to bite into a rather large emerald but then it started to move out of his grip, and start to form with the other gems to form a rather large, rocky looking shaped body. Before Spike could say a word, the monster said out loudly. "Hey Lovebirds! Get out of bed!" The two then opened their eyes to see a unfamiliar pony standing at the foot of the bed. They both let out a scream and jumped out of the bed in surprise. Rainbow flew straight up and hit her head on the ceiling and Spike flopped out of the bed and landed face first on the floor. Meanwhile the silver stallion quickly jumped back in surprise and began to chuckle. "Whoa are you guys okay?" He asked. Rainbows head was spinning from her sudden contact with the ceiling and Spike had a stinging pain in his face. He then looked up at the stallion. "Who are you mister?" The silver stallion looked down at Spike and showed a kind smile. "The name is Granger young fella, and I am the owner of this cabin". Spike and Rainbow quickly began to feel bad, knowing that they did waltz into another pony's cabin that wasn't theirs. "We're sorry sir" Rainbow apologized, "We just needed a place to get out from the storm." Granger smiled and then shook his head while raising his hoof. "It's perfectly fine, believe me. It is what this cabin is for anyway." Spike and Rainbow quickly had to give their heads a shake and figure out exactly what Granger had just said. "Excuse me?" asked Spike. Granger then kindly explained. He told them that he kept the cabin open for ponies that want to get away from their busy lives and basically relax. "Well that makes sense," Spike said. "Sorry about the mess that we made." "No problem, I have seen worse. Believe me." Granger said with a chuckle. "But you two are going to clean up your mess or I will be charging you a hundred bits!" That didn't take long for Spike and Rainbow Dash to quickly get to their senses. Rainbow got to work cleaning up the mess that was left behind in the bathroom, and Spike got to work cleaning up the bedroom and in the living room. Shortly thereafter the two had completed their chores, and then began to smell a sweet aroma coming from the kitchen. They noticed that Granger was making fried eggs and zap apple jam peanut butter sandwiches. Spike also noticed a bowl of turquoise gems on the table and became very hungry instantly. They soon were all sitting at the dining table and began to have breakfast. Spike munched on the bowl of turquoise while Rainbow munched on her zap apple jam sandwich. Granger had helped himself to some fried eggs with some hay stalks and finished with a cup of coffee. Soon after they were done, Spike began to do the dishes while Rainbow Dash cleaned off the table. Spike didn't mind cleaning, he was Twilight's number one assistant after all and doing these kind of chores were kind of his second nature. Rainbow on the other hoof absolutely hated cleaning, especially cleaning up after herself, but if it was to avoid paying a hundred bits she had to do it. "Thanks for the Breakfast Granger" Spike said as he finished with the dishes. "Yeah thank you so much." Rainbow thanked the sliver pony. Granger nodded kindly and then chuckled. "You're just saying that because you don't want to pay for the mess you two made!" He smirked, and then he began to laugh. Spike and Rainbow were embarrassed and then both began to blush. Granger then smiled and then put his hooves around the two of them. "It's alright, You're not the only ones to damage this place. At least you didn't try to steal any of the furniture." Spike was surprised by Granger's response, and then he remembered noticing that the cabin was very empty and that the furniture that was there was very old. He then began to chuckle along with the friendly silver stallion and then Rainbow joined in as well. Granger definitely had a peculiar form of sarcasm, the two didn't know half the time if he was joking or being serious but he was sure entertaining to be around. "My apologies, but I never got your names." Granger said kindly. Rainbow and Spike were having a cup of coffee and had to gulp down quickly when he asked them their names. "I'm Spike!" "I'm Rainbow Dash!" Granger smiled widely. "Pleasure to meet you Spike and Rainbow Dash" Granger replied. "You two look very familiar though, have I seen you two before?" Spike and Rainbow had never met this kind stallion before. They told him what they might of done for him to recognize them. Rainbow told Granger that she was a member of the wonderbolts and that she was friends with princess Twilight Sparkle and that she represented the element of loyalty. Spike told Granger that he was Twilight's assistant and that he was the hero of the Crystal Empire and the friendship ambassador to the dragons and Princess Ember. Granger seemed amazed and then he laughed. "I knew I recognized you two. I saw the statue of Spike during my visit to the crystal empire last year, and I recognized you for saving Equestria from the changelings back in Canterlot and I also saw the wonderbolts in Las Pegasus two months ago", He said while looking at Rainbow Dash. Spike and Rainbow smiled and beamed brightly. Granger then chuckled again and looked at the two of them. "Now tell me, how long have you two been together? Are you two married or something"? Spike and Rainbow Dash both winced with surprise. They then looked at Granger who had a worried look on his face. "Hey don't worry, I'm not against interspecies relationships or anything like that. I actually think you two make a very nice couple." The two friends looked at each other. They then did a slight chuckle and looked back at Granger. "We've been together for quite awhile now, but no we're not married," Rainbow Dash said sweetly putting her wing around Spike. Spike knew that Dash was lying since they have only been together for four days, but he had known her for quite a long time since he moved to Ponyville and decided to go along with it. "That's right" Spike replied, "she's my special marefriend". Rainbow slightly blushed and gave Spike a smooch on the cheek. Granger gave a slight chuckle. "So what are your two's reason for coming this far up north?" He asked. Spike and Rainbow Dash then told him that they were sent on a friendship mission, but they couldn't figure out what the friendship problem was. They told him about going from village to village and trying to figure out where the problem could be and what could be the real problem. The silver stallion listened to what they had to say, and he thought that what they were doing was very kind. "How many villages have you two been to already?" They showed him the map that they had, and showed him the villages that they already visited. But when they showed him the four remaining villages that were left he gave them a sad look and shook his head. "I hate to tell you this, but these last four remaining villages are vacation spots just like this cabin here. There are no ponies currently staying there because of the storm and that it is now the end of the summer season. I'm sorry, but you won't find any friendship problems there!" He finished. Rainbow Dash and Spike were dumbfounded when they heard this. The mission that they had to complete sounded like it turned out to be a complete bust. "Are you absolutely sure about this?" Asked Spike trying to control himself. The silver stallion looked into him right in his emerald green eyes and nodded. "I'm truly sorry but I am sure of it. I had just come down from that area and passed through the four villages myself. All the villages are completely empty, just like my cabin has been until you two found it." Spike gulped. This was his first friendship mission, and now that it was a bust it would now show Twilight that he was a failure at trying to repair friendships in other parts of Equestria. Rainbow's ears flattened as she saw the sad look on Spike's face, she reached over with her wing and pulled him closer to her. But then Spike became surprised by Granger's response for how empty his cabin had been. After hearing this, Spike cleared his throat and asked the stallion the question. "I have to ask you" Spike said to Granger, "Why has your cabin been so empty? Why aren't other ponies coming here?" Granger looked at Spike and then quickly looked down at his hooves. Rainbow wasn't sure, but she thought she could see tears forming in his eyes. "To be honest Spike my friend, you two are the first couple that have stayed in this cabin in moons." The silver stallion said sadly. "I haven't had been able to find ponies to fill this place after what happened in the other villages." Spike and Dash looked at Granger with a confused look. "What happened in the other villages?" Rainbow asked. The stallion was hesitant to say anything at first, but after some pressing from the two, He finally gave in and told them everything. "About three years ago, I started the same kind of business in each one of the other villages each with one my friends, but I kept messing everything up and it led to us not talking to each other for about a year." "Why? What happened?" Spike asked. Granger looked at his hooves and again and shook his head. "I was the brains behind everything, and I wanted all the cabins that we had to operate how I wanted them to, but it seemed my friends were more better at hospitality than I was. And because of that I became jealous and very angry and I let it get the best of me. I tried everything I could to try and make it look like my friends ways were not the right way and that my way was the right way. But no matter how hard I tried, I only made myself look foolish and it made my friends second guess their friendship with me." "Well what was your way?" Rainbow asked. Granger gulped and took a deep breath. "I wanted to charge ponies and couples a substantial amount of bits to stay at our cabins. But my friends insisted that we only charge a small amount, only more if they caused damage, made a ruckus or didn't clean after themselves. But if we lent out the cabins for a cheap and reasonable price, this would bring in more ponies and that would make our cabins full and show that we have great hospitality." "So what exactly went wrong?" The two asked. They were curious and eager to find out why things between Granger and his friends didn't work out. "It's because I got greedy!" The stallion admitted while slamming his hoof on the table. "I thought by charging more it would solve any problem that we would be faced with, but my greedy attitude got the best of me and my friends told me that they didn't want to be involved with a somepony like me anymore and they cut ties with me. It's been a whole year now since we all last saw each other. I really miss my friends and I really want to tell them how sorry I am for being such a rotten friend and greedy stallion. But I am too scared to tell them, and I am worried how they might respond. No ponies want to stay at my cabin because of what an idiot I was, and the only ones who stayed here completely trashed the place and stole all of the good furniture. I gave myself this reputation and I now must suffer because of it!" Granger sobbed. Spike and Rainbow were surprised by Granger's words. They felt bad for their new friend and wished there was something that they could do to help him out. Then a lightbulb went off in Spike's mind and he quickly looked at Rainbow Dash with a large toothy grin. "Can you excuse us for a few minutes?" Spike asked. Granger looked up and nodded. Spike then grabbed Rainbow by the hoof and brought her into the other room. "What's going on squirt? Why did you bring me in here?" "I think I know what our friendship problem is!" Spike exclaimed excitingly. Rainbow Dash was confused. "What? You mean Granger? You think that he is the friendship problem that we are supposed to solve?" "Yes, I am sure of it!" The young drake said boldly. "What makes you so sure that this is what we are supposed to do?" The cyan mare asked him. "I'm not exactly sure, but I think by helping Granger patch things up with his old friends again I'm pretty sure that is what we are supposed to do for this mission!" "Then what if it's not then?" Dash asked. Spike looked at his feet for a few seconds and then looked his marefriend in the eyes. "Then we go home and tell Twilight we failed" The young dragon said while gulping worriedly. Rainbow Dash knew that this mission meant everything to Spike and she knew that they couldn't return home failures. She was far too proud to let something as simple as a friendship problem bring them down. "Okay Spike, I'm with you! I'm with you every step of the way." She said confidently. "Let's show this friendship problem who's boss!" Spike grinned and then they did a hoof bump. The two then returned to find Granger sitting in the same place as before, tears were running down his face and his bright silver mane now completely looked dull and messy. "Granger, I think I know what our friendship mission is!" Spike said happily. Granger looked up at Spike with a surprised look and quickly wiped his tears from his face. And then he listened as Spike and Rainbow discussed their plan. End of Chapter Six....... > Chapter Seven "The Problem" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A determined Spike and Rainbow Dash were soon making their way through the air, following the path that would lead them to the other villages. Today was the day that Spike would prove to Twilight that he was more than capable of completing a friendship mission outside of Ponyville, and he knew that wouldn't fail because he had made a new friend in Granger and now had a special somepony that he could call his own in Rainbow Dash. The sun was now out completely and warming up the valley, now hinting that summer was indeed almost over. "You're confident that this mission will work?" Rainbow called to Spike. Spike rubbed her behind the ears and smiled. "Absolutely, a hundred percent!" He replied. "This probably ain't going to be easy, but with my good will and your determination there ain't a friendship problem that we can't solve!" Rainbow grinned brightly hearing Spike's bold words. As long as he was confident then she was too. She then flapped her wings even faster and then bolted through the air, with Spike holding on as tightly as he could. Earlier: "You really think that by helping me repair my friendship with my friends, is the friendship problem you two are looking for?" The silver stallion asked with a puzzled look on his face. "I'm positive that this is what we are supposed to do." Spike replied, "It just seems to me that this is the right thing to do!" "And by repairing your friendship with them, think of much better you will feel and how much your attitude will improve!" Rainbow Dash said confidently. "And who knows, maybe this will help you out with your business as well...." Granger was put off by what Rainbow had said and quickly interrupted her. "No! Absolutely not!" Spike and Rainbow Dash were surprised by what Granger had just said. "What do you mean no?" Spike asked. "I don't know if I can do repair things with my friends, I just don't think I can!" He replied. The stallion then laid his head on table and began to sob again. "Whats wrong Granger?" Asked Spike, " Why do you think that things cannot be repaired between you and your friends? You just mentioned to us how you miss your friends!" Granger then looked up at the young dragon and cyan mare and then sniffled loudly. "I do miss my friends, but I don't want to patch things up with my friends if it means trying to save my business. I don't want my old greedy self to come back. I would rather lose my business then go back to my old greedy ways!" He declared. Spike and Rainbow could see where Granger was coming from, but they knew that they had to help their new friend and get him and his friends back to speaking terms. "Let us try, and see what happens." The two said, "But trust us, everything will be alright. Just leave everything to us!" Granger let a small smile sneak onto his face, and then got up from the table. "Well I hope you two are right" He stated, "But when things start to go sour because of my old greedy ways, don't say that didn't warn you." He then walked slowly to the back door of the cabin and then went outside. It was then that Spike and Rainbow gulped and hoped that what they were doing was the right thing, and that it wouldn't make things worse. Present: Meanwhile as Rainbow with Spike on her back were flying through the valley, they soon approached a fork in the road that appeared on the map that they had. "Think it's best if we split up and try the cabins on the path that we take." Spike said to Dash. She nodded her head and then flew off following the trail that went to the left, and Spike began to walk along the trail that went to the right. But before he really went anywhere Rainbow Dash flew back and landed by him. "You wouldn't happen to know what Granger's friends names are, and what they look like do you?" Rainbow asked. Spike then groaned and then smacked the palm of his claw against his forehead. "Oh for bucks sake!" Spike sighed. Soooooooooooooo, Rainbow and Spike had to quickly fly back to Granger's and ask him what his friends names are, and whereabouts they live. To make things even more difficult Granger told them that they were living separately in three of the four villages that they had already visited, because the other four villages were shut down for the year. Spike and Rainbow groaned and then headed back to the villages they went to previously. So far this mission was starting to become more and more of a hassle. "Okay, let's try this again!" Rainbow chuckled while Spike sat on her back with his arms crossed. "Better be worth the effort" Spike muttered to himself. Later that day: It had become quiet now that Spike and Rainbow Dash had left Granger's cabin. He didn't want to admit it, but he began to feel even more alone now that the cabin which was all that he had had been so quiet for so long. Deep down he hoped that his new friends could help him and his old friends become close again, but he was still trying to figure out what he was going to say to his old friends when he saw them. Would they take him back as a friend? Would they say mean things to him? Would they even say anything to him at all? There were so many things playing throughout his mind that he began to tear up again. All these days he had spent to himself for the past year had been tough on the stallion, but he knew that Spike and Rainbow Dash were going to do everything that they could to help him, and he knew deep down in his heart that he was a good pony and that he wanted to do good by the other ponies that he cared about. Then after what felt like it had been another year, but in fact had only been a few hours the door to his cabin opened up. Granger peered at the front door, and noticed a familiar looking dragon walking through the door. "Hey there Spike" Granger said excitingly. "You're back! How did things go with you and Rainbow Dash on finding my friends?" Spike looked at the silver stallion and gave him a small smile. "Come and see for yourself." Spike instructed. Granger then walked to the front door and peered outside. When he looked he saw three familiar ponies, a earth pony with a dark brown coat and lighter brown mane, and two unicorns. One with a maroon coat and yellow mane and the other one with a dark green coat and black mane. He recognized the earth pony as Freerun, the maroon unicorn as Beaver Tail and the dark green unicorn as Maple Leaf. Granger's jaw dropped and he stood perfectly still. As much as he wanted to run up to his friends his hooves felt as they were frozen to the ground, and he couldn't speak as his mouth just seemed to not want to function. "Granger?" Maple Leaf asked with a surprised look on his face. "Is that you?" Freerun questioned. Granger still couldn't come up with the words to say anything. He just looked at the ground and then nodded. He didn't know what they would say next, and then to his surprise he felt the ground shake and then the hooves of his three friends wrap themselves around him. "We were so worried about you!" Beaver Tail sobbed. She couldn't contain her tears from running down her face, neither could the others. Granger was completely frozen in shock. The ponies who he thought had hurt with his greedy personality had all along been worried about him, and had seemed to have really missed him as much as he did them. Granger then began to tear up and then he wrapped his hooves around his three old friends. "I'm so happy to see you three!" Granger cried. His friends smiled brightly and chuckled as they continued their hug. Afterwards Granger then wiped his eyes and then looked at his friends. "Did Spike and Rainbow Dash tell you I was living here?" His friends looked at him and shook their heads. "Actually they told us about a cabin in the woods that needed some "TLC" and that we should check it out" Freerun replied. "They never told us that you were here!" "We didn't know where you disappeared to" Beaver Tail said, "We went to find you but when we went to your house you weren't there!" Granger was surprised that his friends were saying these kind words, the pain that he thought he did to them had only had been done to himself. "Why did you run away?" Maple Leaf asked him. Granger looked away and gulped. "Because I thought you three didn't want to be friends with me anymore after what a jerk I was. You guys didn't want to be involved with me no more so I decided to leave." Granger explained. His three friends were stunned to hear what he had to say, and then they looked at him and smiled. "We never did say that we were cutting ties with you." Freerun said kindly. "You did act a little selfish and we were upset with how you tried to take everything over for yourself, but we knew that you made a mistake and we were going to talk with you the day after but you had vanished!" "We did look for you and we were hoping that you would return" Beaver Tail chimed in, "We knew that you didn't mean to act that way, we actually felt bad for getting upset when we should've tried to sort things out from the start. You didn't mean to act that way right?" Granger looked at his three friends right in their eyes, and he immediately shook his head. "No. I was just a stupid stallion who thought that bits was more important than friendship, but when I left our village and went off on my own I realized that bits are not the answer to any ponies problems. I wanted to come back and talk with you three but I was just too nervous and upset with myself to face you all again because of my actions. I made a mistake and I know I can't turn back time and fix things but I have learned from my mistakes. Can you all forgive me?" Before he could say another word, his three friends then once again wrapped their hooves around him and pulled him in for a big hug. No words were said as none needed to be said as Granger knew that he was friends once again with the ponies that he cared for the most. Spike and Rainbow Dash had been watching the whole time, and had a hard time holding back tears of their own. To them it reminded of their friendship with Twilight and the others. It wasn't a sappy feeling, but it was a heartwarming feeling. They soon walked over to the group of reconnected friends, who were very happy to see them. Especially Granger. "Thanks you two for helping me get reunited with my friends. I can't thank you enough for all that you have done!" Rainbow Dash and Spike beamed proudly, and then gave each other a hoof bump. They felt great about themselves, thinking that their friendship mission that they were to complete was finished. Rainbow then looked at her flank to look at her cutie mark, and Spike looked up at his scales, hoping to see them pulsate with a green color. But as they kept looking something happened, something that shocked the both of them. Nothing!!! Neither Rainbow's cutie mark or Spike scales glowed. Rainbow had to smack herself across the face to make sure that she wasn't dreaming. Spike's could feel his heart sink to the bottom of his chest, and then he felt like crying. All the hard work that him and Rainbow had done was not their friendship mission after all. They then put on their strong faces and joined in with the group. The Next Day: Spike walked the slowest he probably ever walked in his life as he and Rainbow Dash made their way back to Ponyville. It had been a long night for the two as they spent another night at Granger's cabin, talking and spending time with him and his old friends. They were all very nice ponies, and they all thanked them for their help as well. Throughout the night, Spike was restless and it took him awhile to fall asleep. Rainbow too had some difficulty sleeping, and was very groggy when the morning sun lit up the cabin. Earlier that morning: "Are you sure you two can't stay for another day?" The kind silver stallion as his two new friends. "Sorry Granger, but we have to get back to Ponyville." Spike replied, "but we will come see you again very soon." "Yeah, and this time we'll bring our friends so they can meet your friends" Rainbow Dash said kindly. No matter how happy they were that they helped Granger repair his friendships with Freerun, Maple Leaf and Beaver Tail, they were still down from their mission failing. As they began to turn to leave the cabin, Granger spoke up in low voice that only Spike and Rainbow could hear. "This wasn't your friendship mission. Was it?" He asked, his curiosity plaguing in his mind. The young drake and cyan pegasus quickly winced, the words sounding like a dagger into their backsides. They then turned to face Granger, but they couldn't bring themselves to bring the words out, instead they only shook their heads with disappointment. Granger's ears went back, and he looked sadly at the ground. "I had a feeling it wasn't, I could tell by the looks on both your faces yesterday. I'm sorry you two, I wish there was something I could do." Spike and Rainbow felt terrible inside. But before they could manage to give a reply, Granger then looked back up with a smile. "But I am very grateful for you two in helping me, even though it wasn't your mission. I'm still very happy to have met the two of you!" Spike and Rainbow Dash's spirits then brightened. To hear these kind words from such a friendly stallion like Granger was enough to make them feel better and forget about the mission all together. They then smiled brightly and shook hooves with their new friend. "It was very nice to meet you too Granger" The both of them said happily. They soon got their things, and waved goodbye to the kind stallion and leaving behind the cabin that they had a wonderful time in. There was without a doubt, that the two of them would be back! Meanwhile: "Spike, are you doing okay?" Rainbow asked. She had noticed that the young dragon that seemed to be growing more and more by the day, had been rather quiet for the last few hours. "Oh sorry, Yeah I'm fine Dash." Spike replied, "just been thinking about some things that's all." "Are you thinking about the friendship mission?" "Yeah that's one thing I was thinking about. I just can't come to grips that we couldn't find the problem, even when we helped Granger repair his friendship with his three friends. It doesn't make any sense!" Rainbow couldn't agree more. As much as she loved solving friendship problems, she just had that feeling that they lost to a problem that they could of easily solved, and Dash really really hated losing. Especially to something like a friendship mission. "It's a head scratcher alright" The loyal pegasus chimed in, "I definitely think that the cutie map has to be on the fritz this time, or either that egghead Twilight planned this out as a joke!" Rainbow then looked at Spike who now had a look of even more disappointment and then held his down and let out a sad sigh. "There you go again Dash, making the poor guy feel sorry for himself! So much for being a loyal friend!" She thought to herself. The rooftops of Ponyville could now be seen in the distance, even though they had been gone for four days, the town that they both called home seemed different yet also bigger. Rainbow then looked over at Spike again, who now looked like he was going to break down and cry. Rainbow now felt even more upset for her friend, she wanted to say something cocky but didn't think it was right for her to say something like that, then she took a deep breath and began to break the awkward silence. "For all its worth Spike, even though you didn't complete your mission, you faced it head on and didn't give up. You braved a mighty storm just to find us supplies, and you even helped a kind pony get things right with his three friends and got them talking to each other again, even though it wasn't the mission we were sent to do. No matter what any pony says you're not a failure, you in fact my little purple scaled friend are one of the biggest winners in all of Equestria!" She declared. Spike took in her words on what she was saying, and then turned his head to look at her. "How do you mean Dash?" Rainbow let out a small laugh, and then wrapped her wings around Spike to bring him closer to her. She gave him a small kiss on the side of his head and then proceeded to give him a noogie. "Because you got the most loyal pony in Ponyville and the awesomest flier in Equestria as your marefriend buddy!" She finished with a smirk on her face. Spike laughed as Rainbow continued to rub the top of his head with her hoof. He knew that she was right on everything that she had said. The pony that he thought was the coolest, radical and by far the most fun pony to be around was now his special somepony. He knew that she deeply cared about him and he knew for sure that he cared about her a lot too. He then took another long gaze into her eyes and grabbed her around her head and brought her face close to his. "And I feel the same way Dash. I too am glad that I got to go on this mission with you". Spike replied and then he planted his lips against hers, which she was quick to oblige. Then they closed their eyes as they made out with their most passionate kiss. Then the two began to feel different and then they heard a familiar noise. Rainbow turned her head to look at her cutie mark while Spike looked at his scales. To their utter shock and disbelief, they were pulsating with their colors which then told the two of them that their mission was somehow complete. "What...Whats happening?" A confused Rainbow Dash asked. Spike didn't respond right away as he was just as confused as she was. As much as this was exciting that her cutie mark and his scales were glowing, it didn't seem right for them to just start glowing right out of the blue, especially since they couldn't figure out what the mission was or what it could of been. Then to Spike, it hit him like a ton a bricks. The truth was right there, in front of him all along. He then smiled from ear to ear, a smile that would put Pinkie's to shame and then he hugged Rainbow Dash as tightly as he could. Rainbow couldn't figure out at first why he just started smiling and then gave her a big hug. And then it came to her. She then realized what the mission was and had been from the start. She then smiled brightly and then returned the hug Spike was giving her, only to squeeze back even tighter. She didn't want Spike to one up her at giving the best hug after all. For Rainbow Dash and Spike, their mission was over and happily was a success! End of Chapter Seven. > Chapter Eight "Reveal" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sight of Twilight's castle was a welcome sight to Spike. It had felt to him like he had been away for about a year, when in fact it had only been a few days. The two new lovebirds then began to walk up the castle stairs, and then began to approach the front door. "Should we tell Twilight and our friends that we are now a couple?" Spike asked Rainbow Dash with a worried look. Rainbow looked over to her friend and smirked. "I don't see why not. I know that I love you and that you love me. And if any pony even Twilight says anything against it, well then they will all just have to accept it whether they like it or not. I don't care what they say, I know in my heart that it feels right!" Rainbow replied boldly. Spike then smiled, inhaled and then he faced forward with a look of determination on his face. "Well if your not worried, then neither am I! But let's tell Twilight first" Rainbow chuckled and agreed. And then together the two of them opened the door and entered into the castle, ready to reveal to Twilight about their mission, and what had changed when they were out together. In the throne room, Twilight was busy getting some of her important paperwork done. Without Spike to help her she had to work twice as hard as she had ever worked before, which she didn't mind of course but having a trusty assistant like Spike made things go so much more smoothly. She was just about to finish writing on her piece of paper when the doors flew open loudly. "We're home!" Spike called loudly. The echo from his voice rang though Twilight's head like a bell and she fell over from complete surprise. The alicorn princess thought she could see stars from her quick journey down to the floor, but was quick to realize that it was a purple dragon that had seemed to have grown a little bit in size and a blue pegasus who was trying hard not to laugh at her friends mishap. "Hey Twilight, how was your trip?" Rainbow asked before bursting out laughing. Spike joined in and laughed with her. He then held out his claw for Twilight to grab onto with her hoof and bring her up off the ground. She then quickly gave her head a shake and then gave her friend an cock eyed stare. "My trip? I should be asking you about your twos trip!" The Princess of Friendship growled. "How did it go? Did you two complete the mission? What was it? I'm curious! TELL ME EVERYTHING! Is Spike okay? He's not hurt is he? Did you tw-" Twilight was cut off by Rainbow Dash putting her hoof to her friends mouth. "Geez Twi you're talking a mile a minute, relax and calm down before you pass out!" Rainbow hinted with a smug grin. Twilight then calmly took a deep breath and then chuckled. She did have a tendency for freaking out at the littlest things. "Yes we completed the mission" Spike declared to his long time friend. "Are you impressed? Didn't think i could do it did ya?" Twilight looked at Spike and had to blink twice. She couldn't believe that Spike a grown a bit since she last saw him, at first she was speechless but then she quickly had Spike in a bear hug and was twirling him around in circles. "Spike! You grew! I can't believe it!" She cried loudly. "Am I impressed? Yes Spike, I am so proud of you. You're not a baby dragon anymore." Spike was having just a tad little tough time breathing from Twilight's strong hug, but even through all that he had to crack a smile. "So what was the mission? When did you two complete it?"Twilight asked curiously. Spike and Rainbow looked at each other confused and then looked back at her. "How do you not know that if we completed the mission or not? Twilight haven't you been paying attention?" Spike asked with a shrug. Twilight looked around and grinned sheepishly. "Well not really. I have been so busy doing all this paperwork that I didn't know when to stop and didn't think I should stop cause you know me, when I start something I always make sure that its finished and done right!" She replied proudly. Rainbow chuckled and then rolled her eyes. "Only to well Twilight. Only to well!" Spike and Rainbow Dash then told Twilight all about their mission as she sat in her chair in the throne room. They told her about going to the different villages, about flying through the storm which Twilight was not to happy to hear about since they both could've been hurt. Then they continued with Spike telling her about him finding the cave, and then braving the storm to go to the cabin in the woods to find food. Twilight was wide eyed and shaking and also ranting to Spike again for being so reckless. But Spike then revealed that Dash was always there to help him out and that she saved him from the falling tree. He said that he had learned from this experience and that he promised to be more careful in the future. "I should hope so that you learn from this Spike, I wouldn't want anything to happen to my number one assistant!" Spike quickly agreed. Then he and Rainbow told her about meeting Granger. They told her how he owned the cabin in the woods and was one of the kindest ponies that they have met. They mentioned how he had problems with his friends and it led to them not talking for about a year. They said how they offered to help him with everything and that they helped him reunite with them and make things right, they said that they were also very kind and reminded them of their other friendship with the others. Spike then said he thought that's what the friendship mission they thought they were sent to do was. "But it wasn't" Spike finished. Twilight was happy to hear that the two had made a new friend in Granger and helped him with his friends, but she was also sad to hear that it wasn't their mission. "But I don't understand, if helping your new friend wasn't the friendship mission then how do you two think you completed it?" She asked with a confused look. Spike and Rainbow looked at each other, nodded and then looked back at her with beaming smiles. "Because we were the friendship mission!" The two of them said together, with Rainbow wrapping her wing around Spike. "Spike is my special somepony" Rainbow Dash chirped in. "I am glad I went on this mission with him, cause it helped me see how much I really love him for who he is." She looked at Spike who was grinning from ear to ear and gave him a quick smooch on the forehead. "And Rainbow Dash is my special marefriend!" He added, "I have had feelings for RD for quite some time, but I too am glad I got to go on this mission with her because doing so helped me realize my true feelings for her and how much I really love her!" He then quickly looked over to Rainbow and nuzzled with her. They then looked at Twilight. Twilight was taken back at what the two of them had said, but to their utter surprise she wasn't freaking out like the two had hoped she would, she actually was smiling and had a small tear running down her face. Then in an instant the two then found themselves in Twilight's grasp as she had quickly teleported over to the two of them and was sobbing quite loudly. "Twilight? Are you okay?" Asked a surprised Spike. Rainbow was also surprised. She didn't think Twilight would be happy that she and Spike were now a couple, even after what she and Twilight had been through before. But Twilight was happy and hugged them even tighter. "I always believed that you two would eventually become a couple, I'm just so happy right now to hear this!" Twilight sobbed happily. "You are?" Spike asked, "How do could you be happy Twilight? I thought you would've been upset about this!" But Twilight was quick to deny what Spike had said. "Of course I'm happy Spike. I am the Princess of Friendship, so I am definitely okay with you two being a couple. I wouldn't be a good friend if I didn't approve of you two's relationship, and as I said earlier you're not a baby dragon anymore. I had always thought you two would find yourselves a special somepony, but hearing that you two are together makes me the happiest pony in all of Equestria". Twilight declared happily. Spike looked at the pony who had hatched him and raised him from the very beginning. Hearing that she supported their relationship, and that she now considered Spike to be more grown up then before told him that his mission was now an even bigger success. He then hugged Twilight as tightly as he could and began to cry, Rainbow then joined in and hugged them both tightly as well. "Thank you Twilight. Thank you." The two said happily. Twilight chuckled happily and then she turned to Rainbow Dash. "Better take care of Spike from here on out RD or I will have your wings!" She declared patting Rainbow on the head. Rainbow giggled nervously and replied with a smirk. "Of course! Don't worry Twi, Spike will be taken care of from here on out or my name isn't Rainbow Dash!" A few weeks later: One beautiful fall day, Spike and Rainbow Dash were walking alongside one of the many ponds that surrounded Ponyville. The two had spent the last few days telling all their friends the good news about their new relationship, and just like Twilight they all approved of their decision. "I'm very happy for you two, I wish you two the best in your new found relationship" Fluttershy said kindly. "Well shucks, this is great news. Ah'm more happy to hear this news than Rarity being chosen to be a judge for a fancy dress contest in Canterlot. Congrats you two!" Said the always honest Applejack. "Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh, I have to throw you two the biggest hookup party in the history of Equestria!" Pinkie Pie said very excitingly, "This is going to be so incredibly amazing!" "Well that is fantastic to hear darlings. I'm happy to hear that you two have come to see each other as the ones for each other. This is a very nice surprise to hear indeed". Rarity said happily with a tear in her eye. Even Starlight, Trixie, Discord and a lot of the others in Ponyville were all happy to hear the news. That the element of loyalty, not mention a member of the Wonderbolts and Spike the brave and glorious, savior of the Crystal Empire and friendship ambassador to the dragons were now in a relationship! The news spread like wildfire throughout the land, from Canterlot to the Crystal Empire and the reactions were all the same. At first Spike and Rainbow Dash were a little put off by how many ponies had heard the news so quickly. This definitely had to be Pinkie Pie's handy work. That pony sure don't like to keep things quiet for very long, but that's Pinkie for you. And the two of them had received a couple of letters from Granger. He told them that things were going well between him and his friends so far, and that they were all working together to get his old cabin fixed up and look respectable. He mentioned that he should have the cabin up and ready for ponies to stay there by next spring, but whenever the two of them make their way back into northern Equestria, that they can stay there as long as they want. And finally in his last letter he said that he would bring his friends to Ponyville so he could introduce them to Twilight and the others when they had spare time. That made Spike and Rainbow Dash very happy to hear, and Twilight and the others were looking forward to that day as well. Spike continued to walk with Rainbow Dash's hoof gently grasped in his claw and was completely in his comfort zone. Hanging out with Dash and spending some quiet time together was something that the young drake definitely enjoyed. He still lived in Twilight's castle and helped her as much as he could, but other than that he spent most of his time with Rainbow Dash at her house. Spike had now grown small wings and could fly somewhat pretty well, just not for far distances. Good thing he had an awesome teacher in Rainbow. She told him that with enough practice he could maybe join the Wonderbolts someday. Spike thought that would be awesome, but deep down he knew that the chances of commander Spitfire letting him join was pretty slim. "Yeah right Dash, the day the wonderbolts let me join is the day that pigs fly!" He said with a chuckle. But then he felt his marefriends hoof yank itself from his grasp and come to a stop. Spike looked back to the cyan pegasus who appeared to be somewhat annoyed. "This is boring! This isn't something that I'm used to!" She declared. Spike could feel his heart sink even further than it was supposed to, and looked down at the ground. Had he done something for his new special somepony to be completely bored? Was this relationship not mean't to be? All these questions burned themselves into his head, but then he quickly felt himself being lifted off the ground and see that Rainbow Dash had scooped him up and was now carrying him in her arms. "Now this is much better!" She chuckled cheekily to the young dragon. Spike was taken by surprise. "Oh thank Celestia, I thought I did something wrong that might've made you not want to hang around me anymore". Spike sighed happily. Rainbow quickly looked at Spike with a confused look. "Why would you think that? I was just bored with walking, I'm more happy when I'm flying" She gloated, "I could never be bored being with you my dragon friend. You are my special somepony and don't you forget that!" Spike then grinned from ear to ear and let out a happy chuckle as the two then flew off towards the sunset, the next chapter of their relationship awaiting them. THE END. THANKS FOR READING A STORY BY DASHIE1791......................... > Bonus Clop Chapter > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was flying through the air with his new wings flapping rapidly. It had been a month since his new wings came in and he was getting better at flying everyday and could now fly even longer distances than before. Rainbow Dash spent as much time with him as she could when she wasn't with the Wonderbolts and spent hours training him to be a good flier, maybe just as good as her. He soon made his descent towards the Castle of Friendship, and made sure to land carefully on the window ledge. Twilight didn't like it when Spike landed on the window sill and come in through the window, he had actually crashed through it several times while training and she found it annoying. It reminded her of a another pony that she knew that liked to come flying in through her window, and that pony was Rainbow Dash. Though she knew Spike couldn't help it, he was dating her after all and was bound to pick up a few of her bad manners. Spike now had climbed through the window and went to his bedroom to rest. He had the castle now all to himself as Twilight had taken Starlight for a visit to the Crystal Empire. She asked Spike if he wanted to come but was quick to deny her offer. "Sorry Twilight, But Rainbow Dash is coming home soon and I want to be here when she gets back." Spike didn't mind being on his own but he preferred it when there was other ponies around. Especially his marefriend. He then opened the door to his room and found that it was completely dark, which surprised him considering he didn't remember his room being this dark when he left. But then the sunlight came flashing into the room in a instant and to Spike's surprise and excitement laid the pony that he couldn't stop thinking about everyday. "About time you got here, I was starting to think that you weren't coming!" Rainbow Dash said lustfully. Spike looked at the rainbow maned pegasus and smiled broadly. "Miss this? Not in a million years!" He said happily. "I didn't expect you to be back this early." "Spitfire told me that I could go home early so I can practice for our last show! I told her that I needed to loosen up cause I was feeling a little bit stiff." She explained, "And I know exactly what will loosen me right up!" She gave Spike a seductive look and then turned her body to show him her rear. She moved her tail over to the side, giving a full view of everything. Spike grinned and chuckled loudly. "Spike want!" He said loudly, his member quickly becoming erect and his new wings flapping wildly. He proceeded to walk over to his bed and give his marefriend the release that not only she was looking for but for the release he needed. By the time he had made it to the bed, his member had now become completely rock hard and his dragon instincts were telling him to quickly overtake her and give her the rut of her life. Spike placed both of his claws on each side of Rainbow's flank and squeezed tightly, a little squeak coming from her as he began to show attention to the horny mare. He then proceeded to places two of his fingers towards to her dripping wet marehood only for her to quickly swat them away. Spike was taken by surprise by her sudden movement and then she showed him her precious flower that was further north. "Not down there, I want you inside me in here!" Rainbow explained lustfully. Spike became wide eyed and even more excited. He had not pleased Rainbow in this area since their night at Granger's cabin in northern Equestria. Then taking two of his fingers began to insert them into the rainbow maned mare's anus. The feeling of Spike's two digits opening her up and stretching her tight hole made Rainbow moan loudly. The burning desire of having him please her in this general area was getting too much for the quick flyer. "Lay down!" Rainbow demanded. Spike acknowledged and did what she had instructed him to do. It didn't take very long for the drake to have the desire he had been seeking as Rainbow began to go down on his erect penis, and lap the shaft with her tongue from the tip to the hilt. Spike winced as the feeling of Rainbow's tongue working his cock was almost too much to bear, but was then given a sudden jolt of intense pleasure as she proceeded to deepthroat him with several pumps of her head. Spike began to rock his hips up and down faster and faster as the sounds of slurping could be heard coming from Rainbow's mouth. Then after three more pumps, she quickly picked herself up and positioned herself on top of Spike to face him, and with his assistance took his rock hard cock and inserted it into her tight hole. Rainbow huffed as his long and stiff member slipped it's way into her anus and began to pump her with every delicate thrust he could give her. The pleasure shot through the both of them like a bolt of lightning and Rainbow began to get even more excited. "Spike, pump me harder. I want to feel every inch of you inside my ass!" Rainbow moaned loudly. Spike chuckled loudly and gave her a devilish smirk. "Thought you'd never ask!" The dragon replied, and then began to work his cock deeper into her ass. The pleasure was now a hundred times more intense for Rainbow as Spike began to thrust into her with every inch that he had. Spike grunted loudly as the sound of his sack could be heard smacking against Rainbow's flesh, and his insides were now burning as he began to prepare to blow his mighty dragon load deep inside of Rainbow Dash. She could feel herself getting even closer to her release and was could feel Spike getting close too. "Rainbow, I'm gonna, I'm gonna...." Spike moaned. "Me too Spike, keep going. Give me your load, I want it all inside me!" she demanded. And then after four more thrusts the two both came together. Rainbow could feel her insides burning as she came on top of Spike drenching his crotch as he completely emptied himself into her tight rectum. The feeling of his hot sticky cum inside her brought a smile to Rainbow's face as he just seemed to continue unloading himself deep inside her ass. After a couple more pumps he then removed his member from inside of her with a plop. She then could feel his spunk running down her leg. She collected as much of the semen as she could and then began to lap it up with her tongue. "Ah I missed your flavor, You always taste so good!" Rainbow whispered quietly. Spike chuckled and then rubbed her mane with his free hand. The drake had never felt more satisfied with himself, but then to his surprise he felt his burning desire for her build up again and when he looked down he made a shocking discovery which Rainbow too was shocked to see. "Spike! You have two? Where did that come from?" Spike didn't know what to say, only that his dragon desire was now getting the better of him and he then grabbed her head and pulled her in towards his own. "Ready for round two Dashie?" He said deviously. Rainbow thought quickly and then locked lips with her lover. "I'm always ready for another round, or my name isn't Rainbow Dash!" She replied with a cocky grin. Spike then grabbed his newfound member and began to insert it Rainbow's ass, at first very slowly and then he rammed it deep inside her to the hilt. Rainbow was taken back in complete and udder satisfaction as Spike rutted her with every inch of his second cock. To Rainbow his new friend seemed to be exactly the same size but just a little wider in girth. The intensity of Spike's thrusting was now getting too much once more for the both of them as they could feel themselves prepare for another intense orgasm. Within a few more minutes Spike roared loudly as he released every strand of semen that he had from his second member deep inside of Dash's hole. Rainbow's second orgasm was by far better than the first one, it must've been the feeling of a cock that she was not familiar with which must've set her off big time. The rainbow pegasus collapsed beside the purple dragon with a look of pure pleasure written all over her face. Spike panted profusely as he began to catch his breath while Rainbow rubbed her hoof on Spike's chest. She then looked down only to see that both of Spike's members that she thought would be limp and flaccid were once again both erect and raring to go. "Really Spike?" Rainbow asked. She knew that Spike and even dragons had lots of energy and stamina, but she didn't think he would have more than her. Spike just gave a toothy grin and gave her a sultry look. "Round three!" He responded with a booming voice. Rainbow didn't have time to respond as Spike then quickly rolled her onto her stomach so her flank would stick up into the air. Spike then positioned himself directly behind her and without giving her a heads up inserted both of his erect cocks into her ass. Now this was something that she definitely didn't expect. The feeling of two members inside of her at the same time in the same hole was just too much. "Spike! Stop! You're going to tear my hole apart!" She cried loudly. But Spike didn't seem to hear her as he was so focused on the intense pleasure of rutting Rainbow from behind with both of his shafts. Rainbow moaned loudly with tears forming in her eyes as Spike continued to pound her hard with both cocks inserting themselves deeper into her ass. After what it seemed to be ten minutes Rainbow began to feel herself getting surprisingly aroused with the feeling of Spike's twin members inside her. She then began to rub her clit that felt swollen to the touch and began to rub it at a quick pace and as hard as she could. Rainbow moaned loudly and shifted her head back to face her lover as the look of desire grew in his eyes, and to Spike the look in her eyes was telling him that she focused on only one thing and that was him. He began to feel his insides begin to burn slightly, his new upcoming orgasm rapidly approaching. Rainbow could feel her burning desire approaching rather quickly as well. "More Spike! Give me more! Harder! Bang me till you can't go anymore!" She shouted loudly giving him a seductive look. Spike nodded and obliged by ramming both of his cocks deeper than they have ever been before and was thrusting into her with every movement his hips could give out. Spike was giving her a hundred percent more pleasure as he could now feel himself ready to explode. "AHHHHHHHHH!" The two screamed loudly together as they both had the most intense orgasm they had ever felt. "UNGH RAINBOW I LOVE YOU!" Spike roared loudly while releasing his semen from both members deep inside her rectum. "I LOVE YOU TOO SPIKE! GIVE ME ALL YOUR JUICES! GIVE IT TO ME!" Rainbow howled loudly as she finished her intense orgasm. The two of them continued to moan loudly, but in the meantime the door to the bedroom began to open. "Spike are you in there?" A voice called as the door opened. Spike and Rainbow didn't hear the door open, but noticed a very shocked and surprised Starlight standing in the doorway. Her faced turned a bright color of pink and then quickly turned her head. "Oh my gosh I'm so sorry you two, I didn't mean to barge in like that!" Starlight apologized as she quickly closed the door. She then gasped for air as she looked at Twilight who appeared to be worried for her friend. "Starlight are you okay? What happened? What did you see?" She asked with a puzzled look on her face. Starlight quickly blushed and began to walk the other way. "Something that I shouldn't have seen!" She replied. Twilight then laughed as she followed Starlight to the kitchen. "I told you to knock first!" Twilight chuckled to herself. "It's your own fault!" Spike and Rainbow had now collapsed onto the bed and were now completely spent. Spike's members were now flaccid and had now disappeared into their sheath. Spike and Rainbow then began to laugh as they remembered seeing Starlight's embarrassed look on her face as she walked in on the two's love making session. "I should really put a lock on that door!" Spike mentioned. Rainbow chuckled and then nodded in agreement. "Oh boy, this is going to be a very awkward night" Rainbow chimed in. "By the look on her face, I think we have just given her nightmares." Spike laughed and sighed loudly. "Guess I better have a talk with her!" He declared, "But first we better get cleaned up!" He then climbed out of his bed and then looked back at the spent flyer. "You coming?" He asked. Rainbow looked at him and gave a small chuckle. "Can you carry me? I can't really feel my legs." She asked kindly. Spike responded with a roll of his eyes and then picked up his marefriend and proceeded to take her into the shower. "So do you think that I loosened you up enough?" Rainbow looked into Spike's emerald green eyes and kissed him on the lips. "Oh yeah! That was just what I needed. I am more loosened up than I was before thanks to you. The next Wonderbolts practice is going to go even smoother now!" Spike smiled and then closed the door behind him. FIN........
