Chapter 5: Twilight and Spike

Through the past years, there hasn't been much of a noise inside the castle. However, this was soon changed. The claw steps and hoof marks were of a purple and green scaled dragon of nine feet tall, and his pony prisoner, who only stood six feet tall. The dragon held a blue candle by the name of Rainbow Dash. The Dragon called Spike was leading his prisoner up to her room. This prisoner being the purple unicorn named Twilight Sparkle.

Spike had decided upon himself to place Twilight in one of his rooms as he didn't feel like keeping her in those dungeon rooms. Even he doesn't know why he did it, he just did.

Both Spike and Rainbow Dash noticed Twilight's lack of words. They both knew that she didn't get to say goodbye to her father, and thus felt Twilight's sadness for leaving him alone for she has been his prisoner.

Spike didn't want to say anything at first. Rainbow was giving Spike a stern look, which forced him to say words to his prisoner.

"I hope you like it here. I know it's not much, but you will grow to appreciate this" Spike said lowering his chances of the purple mare finding happiness in such a sad place.

They approached her room with great speed as Spike looked down at her. She had turned to look back at him. The hurt in her eyes made it seem like she was a wounded woodland creature.

This made Spike to think Stop looking at me like that.

Spike tried to say something to break down the situation, but only growled "You WILL join me for dinner"

The door slammed as Twilight felt a hint of fear upon realizing she was being forced to eat with him.

XxxX

Twilight found herself in her room as she was wondering what was going on. She knew she was in the same room that she has been in for the last few hours, but it felt much older, more to her liking. She wonders if he changed her room while she slept.

The door opened as she found a being that was very familiar to her. It was Spike. However, he didn't seem like the scary dragon at all. He was much smaller and thinner.. He had much rounder green barbs from behind his back. His eyes were more welcoming than fearful. What a smile he carried as they were smiling at her. She hid under the covers fearing that she would be eaten by him.

"Twilight honey what's wrong. I heard you screaming" Spike spoke of great concern

He wasn't yelling, or eating her or hit her for that matter, what was up with this dragon? She uncovered the blanket slightly with her hooves wondering where the dragon went.

"Are you ok Twily" Spike smiled appearing next to the mare, who just freaked out and fell to the floor "O I am so sorry, I should have realized that you don't like being surprised. I am such a clumsy dragon"

His words were comforting and interesting. Twilight saw how the dragon held her hooves making sure she was alright. This dragon was acting too differently than the dragon she has encountered. Twilight smiled giving into the dream.

"I am alright, you just surprised me. Ummm I think I sort of bumped my head when I feel down. What exactly is our relationship" Despite not knowing her dashing hero, he was a stranger to her.

"Well, at first, I wanted to contain you, but we became so much more and soon released spark between us that developed into an everlasting love" Spike smiled closer at Twilight, who was blushing after hearing his words. They sounded like silk as Twilight was lost in those words.

"Twilight, ummm Twilight" Spike smiled as he snaps his fingers in order to make the mare recover from her daydream.

"Umm what I am so sorry" Twilight felt horrible for ignoring him, he must hate that about her.

"Like I said, we have been going out for a very long time and I had a very important question to ask you" Spike kneeled down as Twilight knew this position of his body too well. She heard stories of how ponies, dragons, or any other creature did this for when they wanted to be married to them forever and ever. She saw him taking her hoof and pulls it to his hand andpulled out a sparkly golden ring from his hand. Spike couldn't help but feeling joyful upon asking his question.

"Will you marry me" Spike smiled

"Wha….What" Twilight was frozen by his question

"Will you marry me" Spike smiled more

"I..I…I…ummm. I…"Twilight kept telling him.

Returning to her body during her dream, Twilight had fallen asleep and was dreaming of something she never dreamt before. Twilight was about to answer the dragon's question in the dream, but real life complications had woke her up; something like a fall to the ground after slipping off the bed.

"Ow, that hurt" Twilight rubbed her shoulder with her hoof. She was mad that her dream was interrupted. She was about to get up from the floor when the door to her room opened up. She saw the white clock known as Rarity was greeting her.

"Dinner is served Miss Sparkle" Rarity announced

XxxX

"Where is she, she was suppose to be here for dinner right now" Spike paced himself around looking at the time and shook his head.

It had been thirty minutes since dinner was made and the unicorn wasn't at dinner. Spike began to grind his teeth while Rainbow Dash and Applejack looked at one another.

"You have to realize sugarcube, is that these things take time" Applejack exclaimed "She has lost more than one thing tonight"

"Yea, you can't expect her to be leaping for joy" Rainbow Dash added

"Well if she doesn't come soon, I will…"Spike said before something interrupted them.

The door opened to show the white clock. Spike had hoped Twilight would make an appearance.

Spike looks down at her "Well?"

"Well umm the the girl is ummmm. I mean the girl is momentarily coming…." Rarity felt very nervous upon telling everyone "Well she is getting ready too….."

After a few minutes of Rarity acting nervous, the glares from Spike made her defeated

"She's not coming"

XxxX

"WHAT" Spike roared as he burst through the doors of the dining hall. His servants try to chase after him, but he was in full pursuit of Twilight's room. He couldn't have been any anger than right now.

He slid down the hallway and started to bang on Twilight's door.

"I thought I told you to come down for dinner" Spike roar

"I told Rarity that I wasn't coming" Twilight shouted through the door

"You let me in or I will burn this door" Spike shouted back

"And destroy your precious castle, o pleases" Twilight called back making Spike very angry

Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Applejack arrived to look at their master as he was almost going to burn down that door.

"Umm Master, I am sure yelling at her is not the best way to win her heart" Rainbow Dash smiled

"Pleases try to be civil" Rarity begged

"But she is being a pain in my…" Spike glared at the door "Rear"

"Civil" Rarity begged more

"Will you join me for dinner, PLEASE" Spike said as he said the last words very painfully

"No, Thank you" Twilight told him

Spike looked at his servants for advice on this. Applejack stepped up towards him.

"Be a gentle dragon" Applejack smiled

"It would be my honor to be graced with your present, for dinner. If you would please come out and come down with me" Spike painfully said as his kindness was hurting him.

Twilight opened the door looking up at the dragon, then at the servants. She looked back to Spike.

"No thank you" She slammed the door making Spike roar in rage.

"She does not eat at all until she decides to eat with me" Spike gazed at his servants as those were his orders. He then flew to the other side of the castle.

XxxX

"Eat with him? Who does that dragon thinks he is fooling" Twilight pranced around the room. She couldn't believe that dragon wanted her to eat with him.

A knock came at the door in the form of an orange teapot. Twilight closed the door seeing the orange teapot brought some food for the mare to consume in secret.

"Thank you miss…" Twilight spoke

"I couldn't let you just starve sugarcube, and it's Applejack" Applejack smiled at Twilight.

"Thank you again Applejack" Twilight started to eat some toast as she looked out at the window.

"It was a very brave thing you did back there. Taking your father's place" Applejack remarked

"Yea" Twilight looked down in sadness.

"I know what you may think of him" Applejack said "You are wrong about him. He isn't as bad as you would think"

"Not as bad" Twilight glared at Applejack "He is a terrible, rude, snobby, and horrible dragon. He nearly killed my father, made me his prisoner, even tried to force me to eat with him; you say he isn't as bad as I would think"

Applejack couldn't help but see how much in pain Twilight was and the sadness that she was going through. "There was once a time, where the master was really happy"

This stopped Twilight's tears to hear about Applejacks's story.

"It was a long time ago, when the master's parent were still living. They ruled over the land with grace and pride. The castle has seen better days; laughter lasting all day and all night. Parties of all sorts were carried here. Ponies, stallions, and creatures of all sorts including dragons danced with one another. However, soon those days grew darker as the King and Queen grew very ill. We don't know from what, but it was hurting them from the inside. Dragons are unusual creatures and there was nothing that we could do to prevent their immediate demise. The master had cried for weeks on end. We tried to help him move on, but Spike wouldn't have any of it" Applejack looked down remembering those times.

"We had hoped the master would shine through their deaths and be the ruler than they would have wanted him to be. We were very wrong. Through their deaths he became selfish, cruel, and spoiled. Each day he grew bitter, became nastier and scary. There was nothing that remained of the old master. Those days were gone" Applejack told Twilight

XxxX

Unknown to the two, Spike was looking out through his mirror seeing Applejack talking to Twilight as he was eating his dinner. He chomped violently seeing Twilight in tears due to Spike keeping her there.

"That mare should be grateful that I took her offer instead of just eating the both of them" Spike got up "But, why did she do that?"

Spike began to sit down and think about Twilight's noble sacrifice. Why would she do such a thing? She would have lived longer and had a life to herself.

He looked up seeing the torn portrait of himself; he then looked to the right seeing the portrait of his parent. He walked towards it.

What would you two have done?

He paced around looking at the rose, which had lost another petal.

"Darn I am running out of time, if I can't find a way to reverse it soon. We will all be like this" Spike looked at his mirror.

"Show me the mare" Spike shouted as the mirror showed Twilight crying on her bed. Applejack was trying to reason with her.

"Pleases, try to understand Twilight, Spike isn't as bad as you would think"

"He is a monster; I am just a prisoner that he hasn't eaten yet"

Spike looked at himself as he saw his body grow a little more. He knew that Twilight wouldn't be the mare that would grow to love him and break this curse. That was the reality that he was facing.

"She will never see me more than what she fears me to be; a monster." Spike said looking at himself.
