Catrina and Rep stood before the broken doorway, leaving the delegates, Spike, and his friends in shock, "Who or what are we dealing with here?" Sunset asked in confusion.

"Catrina!" Haakim called.

"You dare to barge in on such an important meeting?" Amira called her out.

"Well, I wouldn't have to barge if I was invited, which I wasn't!" Catrina growled.

"Catrina?" Spike asked Twilight, who answered.

"Never heard of her."

Amira spoke, "Catrina was a former member of our Saddle Arabian council. She represented her people the Sphinxes. But one day she discovered a formula known as witchweed potion. Whoever drinks it will be given powerful magic, but it also drains away one's mentality making them become dependent on the stuff."

"Driven mad by constant witchweed consuming, her people finally rose up and cast her out." Haakim explained.

Pinkie turned to the front, "Just remember, kids, don't do drugs." she grinned.

"Why are you here, Catrina?" Celestia demanded.

"And it better not be for the hors d'oeuvre," Discord began, "I tried them, and not too delicious."

"I've come here on behalf of Tirek to rectify the failure of both Grogar and Garble." Garble winced at her words.

"Well, hate to disappoint you, but you'll be failing just like those two lugnuts." Rainbow mocked.

"Hey!" Garble called.

"You shouldn't bite off more than you can chew." Catrina smirked, before pulling Rep close, and sipped from a vial hanging around his neck.

To everyone's surprise, Catrina grew twenty feet tall. The group looked up in shock, as Spike spoke, "How's that for a growth spurt?"

"Now I shall destroy you all for Tirek!" she started firing lightning bolts from her eyes. Everyone left the table before one of the bolts destroyed it.

"Defend the royal ones!" Flash called, as everyone got ready.

"Rep, take them!" Catrina ordered. Rep transformed into a gorilla and roared. He went into to fight the present guards, while some were leading the delegates to a safe spot.

"Time to get my game face on." Spike said as he took on his armored form, while the powered up as well.

Rep suddenly looked nervous seeing he was outmatched, "Uh, Catrina, I could use a hand here."

"And so you shall receive." Catrina said, as she reached into a satchel hung by her waist and held sand in her hand. She blew it from her hand and the particles started coming together taking the form of anthro cat creatures dressed like Egyptian warriors.

"Now this is more like it." Rep said in relief.

"Get them!" Catrina ordered.

So the sand cat warriors went into battle against the group, as Shining Armor went to help, "Shining Armor, wait!" Cadence called.

"What?" he asked.

"Take this." Cadence created a pink shield made from her magic. She levitated to Shining Armor who caught it.

"Thanks, babe." he went to join the others.

Ember turned to Garble, "You get in there and help. That's an order!"

"Yes, Dragon Lord, Ember." Garble went to help.

"Don't leave me out in all this." Discord morphed into gladiator attire, "Charge!" he went into battle.

As the group fight Rep and the Sand Cats, they were also dodging Catrina's lightning bolts and her stomping feet. Stone was using his sword to slice at one of the sand creatures, and when he cut a limb it dissolved into sand, "Yes!" he cheered, only to see a new limb was regenerated, "Oh, shit!" he cursed, as it was about to attack again, only to get blocked by Shining Armor's shield.

"Need a hand?"

"Much appreciated." Stone replied, as both guards stood together with both their shield and sword ready.

Pinkie was launching water shots at one of the sand creatures, and upon coming into contact with the water started crumbling down, "I found their weakness!" she cheered, and was about to launch more water attacks, only for Rep to jump in and fight her, "Bad monkey!" she called, before getting knocked aside by Rep.

"Pinkie!" the girls cried.

Rep was ready to attack again, until Trixie and Fleur jumped in and used their unicorn magic to blast Rep into a wall making him change back, "That'll hurt." he groaned.

"One down on the ground." Rainbow said, only to fly away from an incoming bolt shot by Catrina.

"You pathetic elements of harmony have been causing enough problems for my master and his former partners." Catrina told the girls while attacking them.

"Wouldn't have to cause him problems if he'd just give himself up." Applejack replied, as she punched a hole through one of the sand creatures only to regenerate.

"Just like you should." Twilight send a blast of magic at Catrina who almost lost balance.

"I will never surrender!" Catrina took a deep breath and blew at the girls. The force of her blow was so powerful they flew off their feet and landed on the floor.

"Come on, everyone. Don't hold back!" Spike ordered, as they resumed fighting Catrina and the sand creatures.

They continued fighting the sand creatures, despite them regenerating faster as they lose a part of their bodies. Spike himself was fighting a few, until he looked over and saw Fleur going at it with some more sand creatures. She fought without hesitation or worry, while using her magic to blast holes in her enemies bodies. Spike felt flustered seeing how skilled she really was. He suddenly spotted a sand creature coming at her from behind, and called, "Fleur, look out!"

Fleur spun and saw the sand creature was right on top of her. Before she could attack, Spike tackled the creature to the wall making it s whole body crumble to sand. Fleur was shocked at how close that was, while looking at Spike with a blush on her face, "Oh." she gasped.

Spike flipped over to her side, "You ok?"

"Oui, I'm fine." she confirmed.

"Good. Now let's tag team these sand castle rejects."

"Count me in too," Bonbon joined the fight. She looked at Fleur, "Like old times, huh?"

"Indeed." she agreed.

"Come on, girls," Spike took each girls hand and spun around. As he spun the girls, their feet kicked any sand creature that was attacking. Spike stopped spinning and shot a blast of fire at one of the creatures and it turned into a glass statue. Spike gasped, "That's it! Garble, Stone, Sunset, Ember, come on!" he flew upward.

Ember, Garble, Sunset, and Stone flew up to Spike's side, as Stone asked, "You got a plan?"

"Yes. We combine our flames so it's hot enough to turn Catrina's sand minions into glass."

"Excellent idea." Ember smirked.

"It's brilliant." Sunset agreed.

"I could've thought of it, if I had the time to think." Garble said, as the group rolled their eyes.

"Everyone, move!" Spike called, as the five concentrated their fire elements and blasted a huge stream of fire at the floor. All the sand minions caught in the fire ended up turning into glass statues in odd poses.

Catrina was in shock seeing her minions defeated, "No, it can't be!"

"But it is!" Twilight flew in and threw a punch at Catrina's face.

Spike and the rest of the fighters flew or jumped in striking at Catrina's face or body making her stumble backwards. Trixie created a magical rope which she tossed one end to Flash, and the two stretched it out. Catrina backed away into the rope which made her fall back and crash onto the floor leaving a huge body print.

"Bigger they are the harder they fall." Pinkie joked.

Catrina started shrinking back to her normal size, as Rep looked over, "Catrina!" he ran down into the crater and helped her up, "You haven't seen the last of us!" Rep opened a portal, as they escaped.

The group sighed in relief, as Spike powered down his armor form. The delegates came out from their cover, as Celestia spoke, "Congratulations all of you for stopping Catrina and saving us all."

"Yes, we have seen true heroism today." Duchess Ice Mirror said.

"It's all in teamwork, ma'am." Applejack answered.

"As it's always been." Rarity put in.

"You truly have such brave devoted followers, your excellencies." Duke Kyrippos II told the royal sisters.

"And you, Ember, have shown true courage as well in helping them." Luna told the dragon girl.

"I know your father would be proud." Celestia added.

"Thanks, your majesties." she replied.

Garble shot up, "What about me?! I helped too! Why doesn't anybody here recognize my hard work?!"

Spike went over to him, and Garble was expecting him to say something more belittling, until Spike answered, "You are better suited on our side."

Garble was surprised, before asking, "I am?"

Spike nodded, "You're too good a fighter to be wasted on scum like Tirek."

Garble was taken aback by what Spike said before answering while feeling embarrassed to speak, "Well, thanks."

Luna spoke to the delegates, "As you can see a threat like this is all the more reason why we must keep our alliances strong."

The Saddle Arabians approached, as Haakim answered, "Indeed so. Catrina, Grogar, and Tirek are powerful opponents. Their magics combined will prove most devastating."

"Agreed," Ice Mirror approached with Duke Kyrippos II, "Which is why we are also for the idea of keeping our alliances up."

"You guys have the dragons support by my command." Ember assured them.

"Thank you all for your cooperation." Celestia thanked them.

"Yeah. Better to be friends than enemies, huh?" Spike asked.

"Correct. And you Spike have truly wielded the power of the dragon kind well. You may be one of our best trump cards." Amira answered.

"You and your friends." Haakim looked at the girls.

"Thank you." Spike bowed his head.

"Yes, thank you all." Twilight thanked them.

Meanwhile at Tirek's lair, Rep was helping Catrina along, until she knocked him aside, "Get off me, you fool! I'm fine!"

"What happened?" Tirek demanded, as he saw the state of the two.

Grogar who was also present spoke up, "Looks like Ms. Kitty couldn't handle the job like she said she could." he sneered.

"Shut up!" Catrina ordered, "Next time I will not fail."

"Enough!" Tirek broke them up, "Catrina, next time I expect better results. But for now you are on standby. And, Grogar, I am un-benching you."

Grogar hearing that felt overjoyed, and answered, "Thank you, Master Tirek. I will not fail you."

Tirek got into his face, "For your sake, you better not." Grogar nodded, as both he and Catrina took their leave.

Back in Canterlot that night, Spike was in his guest room lying in bed wide awake. He was deep in thought with his partner, 'That Catrina was one dangerous cat lady. The witchweed potion she takes seems very potent.'

'Yes. Dangerous stuff.' Bahamut agreed.

'Regardless she has to be stopped just like all the others.'

'Are you aiming to make her part of your harem as well?"

"Tempting, but not this time. Besides I think someone else is into her already. You saw how her right hand man Rep looked seeing her defeated. I think he has a thing for her.'

'True.'

'But seriously, we have to take her and Grogar down to get to Tirek. It's the only way to end this threat,' Spike was brought out of his thoughts when he heard a knock at the door, "Come in."

The door opened, and standing in the doorway was Bonbon dressed in a nightgown, "Bonbon?" he asked, as he saw behind her was Fleur who was also wearing a nightgown, "Fleur? What's she doing here?"

Bonbon answered, "She heard I was coming by your room, and requested to join me."

"That's right." Fleur giggled with her former pupil.

"I see." Spike replied, as he saw Fleur approach his bed.

"And I also wanted to thank you for coming to my aid in the battle. If not for your warning I could've received a casualty."

"No problem, Fleur. I mean I know you'd do the same for me."

"Of course. And I'm also here to say you've proven yourself to me." Fleur added.

Spike did a double take, "Say what?"

"The way you defended your friends and fought Catrina. Coming to my aid. You truly are a noble warrior who cares deeply about his comrades."

Bonbon smiled, "That's Spike for you."

"Yeah me." Spike chuckled sheepishly, while rubbing the back of his head. He saw Fleur and Bonbon both climb onto his bed and up to him, much to his surprise.

"Watching you today has opened my eyes to the real you. The you that you claimed to be for your girls. A person I feel deeply for." she batted her eyes, making him blush.

"Does that mean you want to be part of my harem?" he asked with hope.

Fleur smirked, "Let me make you a deal."

"A deal?"

The guard mare nodded, "I'll agree to become part of your harem if you will become a member of mine. Do it, and I will make sure you are not regarded as a mere object of affection as long as you promise to treat me with respect and love. And to top it off I'll even let you do whatever you want with my harem."

"Just the girls in your harem, right?" Spike asked, while feeling uneasy.

"Of course." she giggled.

"Oh, thank God." he sighed in relief.

"So do we have a deal?" Fleur asked seductively.

Spike was pondering on the offer, and was intrigued that not only would he get her but any of the females she'd have in her group. As long as both he and Fleur didn't treat each other like a minority in their individual harems there wouldn't be a problem between the two. He turned to Bonbon, who was smiling as if signaling it was ok. Reaching his decision, he answered Fleur, "Deal."

Fleur smiled, "Merci, Spike Drake," she placed her hands on his cheeks, "Now come here. Let's seal the deal." she claimed Spike's lips,a s the two kissed passionately, with Fleur also rubbing her rack against his chest.

As Spike kissed Fleur, he thought, 'Kissed by another hot older mare with a killer rack rubbing up against me. This has been an all around great day.'

When they parted, Fleur continued, "And also, I would like to spar again with you sometime. And if you do and you probably will end up in a leg lock between my thighs again feel free to look upward like before." she smiled.

Spike's eyes widened, "You don't mind it?"

"As long as it's just us."

"I'll keep that in mind." Spike said with joy.

"Good. Now then. Bonbon and I would like to have some fun with you." Spike watched as both of them pulled their nightgowns up and over to reveal their undergarments. Spike had seen Bonbon in hers before, but looked and Fleur wearing seductive pink French lingerie which left him enticed.

'Oh, wow!' Spike thought in arousal.

"You likes?" Fleur asked, while hefting her breasts up.

"I likes." Spike answered.

"Good. Bonbon mon cher, let us make the Dragon King feel comfy."

"Way ahead of you, Fleur." Bonbon replied, as both took Spike claws and planted them one a breast each.

Spike's arms quivered as he was groping not only Bonbon's impressive rack, but also one of Fleur's as well, 'Snap, this is sweet!' he thought.

Fleur moaned, "Mm, you've got such a good grip. None of my boys ever felt me up this good before, not even any of my girls."

"Seriosuly?" Spike asked.

"Oui."

"Yeah. Lyra may feel me up good before, but Spike is a different case in this matter." Bonbon moaned, as Spike began to squeeze them on impulse.

'Two special service mares in my harem. I can really trust these two to watch my back.' Spike thought, until the three heard someone's throat clear.

They looked over and saw standing before the bed was Twilight in her robe, "Someone care to explain to me, what this is all about?" she asked firmly while eying Spike and Fleur the most.

"Twilight, how long have you been there?" Spike asked nervously.

"Long enough. Now is someone going to explain things to me?" she asked, while tapping her foot.

Spike stammered nervously, until Fleur spoke, "Well, Princess. As it so happens I have agreed to become part of Spike's harem, and he has agreed to be part of mine."

Spike looked over at Twilight wondering how she'd take both parts of the news. Twilight looked over at Spike, "You agreed to become part of her harem?"

"In return to becoming part of mine, of course," he replied, "As long as we agree to treat each other equally."

"I see," Twilight crossed her arms, as the three were worried on how'd she take it, "Well, as long as you two treat each other equally and not make my man feel inadequate with being part of yours, Fleur."

"I would do no such thing to this handsome dragon." she stroked his cheek, as Spike sweat from her gentle touch.

Twilight smiled, "Well, in that case allow me to join you in this night of fun," she removed her robe leaving her in her undergarments, "You don't mind do you?"

"Not at all, Princess Twilight." Fleur answered.

"No problems from me either." Bonbon answered.

"Good." Twilight climbed onto the bed and got in between the two girls and pressed herself down on Spike's torso, "We both deserve fun tonight after what we went through, don't we, Spike?"

"You betcha," he then thought, 'Things just got better!'
