Spike groaned as he picked himself up from the hard ground. "What the? Why did I time travel? Alls I did was pick up a piece of pa..." Spike was tackled!

"A spy!"

"Ah!"

Then Spike was taken to Princess Celestia.

"Who is this?"

"We found this baby dragon in the snow after falling out of some vortex!" Pinkie Explained.

"He's obviously a spy!" Said Maud.

"No I'm not! I'm just an innocent dragon who ended up time traveling to a dark version of the Equestria I know and love!"

"Liar!" growled Rainbow Dash.

"Now now soldier, we can't be certain." Then Celestia looked at Spike. "What is your name little one?"

"Spike."

"Spike is it? Huh...what a coincidence."

"Coincidence you majesty?"

"A few years ago,I had a dragon's egg, I even had a name for the egg if the dragon were to ever hatch, and as it turns out, I was gonna name the baby dragon, Spike."

Spike gulped a little nervous. "Had?"

"Yes, there was this one filly that I had hoped had the magical potential to hatch the little thing, but sadly...that fail was the last straw, so I gave the egg away to a dragon couple with a barren female."

'So that's what happened to me.'

"So...Sombra knew something personal about you and created a dragon spy!" Shouted Rainbow Dash.'

"Rainbow Dash, Sombra knows nothing about me!"

"And I'm not even from here!" he cried out before shutting his mouth.

Celestia then cradled Spike in her hooves.

"C...Celestia, what are you doing?"

"I think we now have what we need to finally beat Sombra."

"What? The dragon?" scoffed Rainbow.

"Rainbow Dash, since you doubt Spike so much, I'm gonna have him as your partner!"

The pegasus frowned.

Then the next day...the fight had reconvened as 2 armies clashed!

"I can't believe she made you my partner." Rainbow growled.

Spike then shot a ball of fire hitting a faraway enemy!

"Meh, seen better." she scoffed.

Then a row of crystal ponies popped out of the snow and Spike shot flame all over them! "What about now?"

"This is how to fight." she flew at a running group and knocked them over in one strike.

"Hah! Check this!" Spike then wrapped himself in flames and began spinning, knocking away a lot of Crystal Ponies! That's when Sombra put up a crystal wall!

"I got this!" Spike then ate a hole through the wall!

"Insolent little worm!" Sombra then shot a huge stone at Spike which was then jack hammered to pieces by Pinkie & Maud! But then his army ran at them.

"My turn!" Said Princess Celestia as she unleashed a bright pulse of energy!

"Ah! That light burns my eyes!"

"Rainbow Dash! You gotta do the Sonic Rainboom while he's dazed!"

"What? I can't do that!"

"Yes you can! In my time you've done it...I think 4 times!"

"But I can't!"

"King Sombra is about to recover from his daze!"

"Rainbow Dash!" He then stared her straight into the eyes! "You can do it! It was what got you, your cutiemark! It was the reason I was hatched! It was the reason Pinkie got her cutiemark!"

"But-"

Spike did something she did not expect! He slapped her cheek with a serious expression.

"Okay...I'll try!"

Then Spike started shooting at Crystal Ponies as Rainbow Dash took to the sky!

Rainbow Dash then flew faster and faster at King Sombra! 'Come on, come one!' That's when she caused an exploding boost of speed!

Everyone looked up and saw the colors spread out as Rainbow headed straight for Sombra.

Sombra had gotten out of his daze but was then hit hard & fast by something! And that something...was Rainbow Dash! "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!"

The impact actually made most of the bones in his body shatter. Sombra fell to the ground!

"Now's our chance men!"

"For the freedom of Equestria!" A general cried out as every last soldier jumped at Sombra and finished him off!

Rainbow landed as Spike hugged her leg.

Everyone cheered now that they were sure Sombra was dead.

"I can't believe it."

That's when Sombra's minions took off their helmets.

"We're freed?!"

"Why yes, now we have no reason to kill each other." Said a guard.

"You bet we don't! Because we're gonna hug you guys!"

Both armies hugged with Rainbow hugging Spike.

"We did it!"

"Yeah!" Then Spike saw Pinkie. "Hey Pinkie!"

"Uh...yeah?"

"Feel like throwing a victory party?"

"Me?"

"Yeah you! Come with me!" Spike then took Pinkie away!

Rainbow and Maud looked at them in confusion.

Later...

"WOOOOO!!!"

"Wow Spike, I think parties really are my special talent!" And then with that realization, her cutie mark appeared! "My cutie mark!"

Pinkie then kissed Spike before running off to show Maud.

Spike then met up with Rainbow Dash at the bar. "So MVP, how are you enjoying the party?" Then the bartender gave Spike a huge mug! "Uh, I don't drink."

"it's fruit punch!"

"Spiked?"

"(Yes) No."

"Sure, why not."

Spike then took a big swig, but then started feeling funny.

"What the? Hey...you ssssaid thisss wasssn't sssssspiked!"

"I decided to make an exception since you were the wild card that aided in our victory." He tried glaring at her, but it just Rainbow chuckle. Rainbow Dash then took a swig as well. "Alright little guy, I think it's time you went to bed...my bed...."

"SSSSSSay what?"

"Yeah, and when we get back to my place, I'll let you spank the cutie mark you helped me earn!" He wobbled as she finished up and picked him up. Then they flew all the way back to Cloudsdale where Spike and Rainbow Dash did it!
