Spike is an unusual dragon, and a hard working creature. Dragon infants his age have never been known to speak or walk. Dragons of any age have never been known to show loyalty to ponies. And yet Spike is devoted to a fault to his motherly and caring pony employer. Head over heels for a fashonista pony who's very being goes against dragon nature. What is so different about the only dragon to walk among the ponies? What does his future hold? And why does Princess Celestia seem to have a vested interest in him? These questions have itched the back of Twilight's mind for sometime now. And she may not like the answers.
