One night at Micro Corp, inside his office Grogar stood before several of his employers who acted as Ravagers in Eden.

"Listen up, my Ravagers," he began grabbing their attention, "As always it's been your duty to take down any player you can in Eden while collecting any artifact of value for me. But now I have a new focus for you."

Several of the workers were curious about what their boss' new order was, "It has come to my attention there is a group in Eden that could very well prove to be a problem for me if not taken care of immediately."

"What group is that, sir?" one of the workers asked curiously.

Grogar pulled up the Eden profiles of Shenron and the Rainbooms for all the workers to see, "These eight individuals. Although they may not look any different than the other avatars in Eden, my sources have informed me there's more to them than meets the eye."

The workers studied the profiles, as their boss continued, "Should you come across them or any one of them in Eden during your rounds you will focus your strikes on them, and only them."

One of the workers spoke up sounding nervous, "Sir, forgive my curiosity, but are you sure it's wise to go after one group?" Grogar shot him an angry look shutting the worker up.

Grogar answered, "The best course of action when taking out a potential threat is to eliminate it before it becomes too much of a threat." the workers all started agreeing with Grogar, mostly because they didn't want to be on the receiving end of his rage.

"Good. Starting tomorrow when you head into Eden patrol your usual spots, and await further for new additional locations. When and if any of them enter Eden, engage and show no mercy."

"Yes, sir!" the workers answered.

Grogar nodded, "You're dismissed for now," the workers left the room leaving Grogar to himself. He looked out the windows and to the city, "No one will take control of Eden from me. Not now. Or Ever!" he promised, while clenching his fist.

The very next day at school, in the gymnasium Spike and his classmates were busy going through basic exercises. As Spike was sitting down trying to stretch far enough to touch his feet he was struggling a bit.

"I always hated this exercise." he groaned, while trying to stretch further.

Spike feeling he was at his limits was about to pull back, only to feel something big and soft press into his back. He looked behind him and saw Applejack pressing up against him.

"Jacqueline?" Spike asked with a blushing face.

"Come on, sugarcube. I know ya can stretch further than that. And if not, let me help ya." Applejack said while smiling.

"Uh, thanks?" Spike answered, as Applejack started pressing herself deeper into his back resulting in him stretching his arms further managing to touch the tip of his toes, "I made it!"

"And that's just one. Let's see how many more ya can do." Applejack said, as she kept helping Spike stretch, while at the same time kept pressing her breasts into his back making him pant.

Several students had watched this with the girls blushing at the display, while the guys looked completely jealous.

"How come she never offered to help me with my stretches?" one of the boys asked, making the others wondering the same about themselves.

At lunch time, Spike met up with the girls at their table, "Just a few more hours of the day." Pinkie told everyone happily.

"A few hours?" Rainbow complained, "Might as well be a hundred years!"

"You know if I were to live that long, I'd consider that a personal triumph." Spike said.

"If you lived to be that age you'd probably be so old you'd be reduced to sitting in an armchair while drooling into a cup." Rainbow cracked.

Spike scowled, "Oh, ha-ha."

"Well, I'm sure even if Spike lives to be that age, I think he'll still look handsome." Rarity said, while putting an arm around Spike, making him smile.

"Just like you think you'd still be a knockout if you lived to be that age?" Rainbow countered.

Rarity frowned at Rainbow, until Fluttershy spoke up, "Come on, you two. Let's just enjoy lunch."

So they continued to eat peacefully, as Pinkie whispered, "So, where are we going today in Eden?"

"Well, it's Spike's turn to pick the place." Twilight noted.

"Got any place in mind, Spike?" Sunset wondered.

Spike pondered, before looking like he made up his mind, "I know. Let's head for the Nova Star."

"The casino planet?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yeah. Have some laughs, make some winnings. It'll be fun." Spike answered confidently.

"You know that place is infamous for drawing players in, and then they never leave." Twilight warned him.

"Because they're desperate and have nothing left to lose," Rainbow replied, "I actually like Spike's idea."

"Would be a good way to replenish some money without having to pick it off others." Sunset admitted.

"I'm all for it!" Pinkie chirped.

"Same here." Applejack agreed.

"I'm ok with it." Fluttershy answered.

"It would give me a chance to show off more outfits I just purchased for my avatar." Rarity admitted.

All eyes fell on Twilight, who sighed and smiled, "Oh, ok." the group smiled knowing they had a plan.

---

When school let out, the girls and Spike completed their homework before heading for the VR stations. After putting their goggles on, they went to Eden, before selecting the world of their choice.

They found themselves standing inside a colossal casino that was busting with the same kind of entertainment at a regular casino. From slot machines, blackjack, craps, and poker tables, roulette, and more. The exterior of it looked like two roulette wheels on top of each other, where every slot had something different going on.

'Welcome to the Nova Star,' Spike narrated, 'An entire casino the size of a planet. Players come here to earn money or even lose it, get married, get divorced, you can... Go into that place.' it zoomed up to a section with neon lights in the shape of two sexy girls.

'As Twilight said, that place is infamous because it draws so many players there for those very reasons. Some don't even wanna leave. Yeah it's just like a regular casino. Except here there's no age restriction.'

Spike and the girls looked all around as several avatars were betting their money to earn more, or just having a good time. Walking around were several sexy bunny girls setting the tables up or serving avatars health restoration refreshments.

"This is awesome!" Rainbow cheered.

"Ok, let's not go crazy, Rainbow," Twilight stopped her from going off, "If we're gonna gamble, be smart, and don't take too big risk. Otherwise we'll lose more than what we have."

The girls and Spike nodded, as the dragon spoke, "Let's meet back up in thirty."

"Ok." the girls agreed, and they headed off.

As Spike walked around taking in all the gambling going on, he stopped before a slot machine, "I think I'll start here." he took out a coin from his reserved, but was stopped by a voice before he could put it in.

"Hey, stranger." Spike looked to see a beautiful well-endowed woman standing close.

She had fair-skin with chin-length pink hair that had bangs styled to the right, dark green eyes, and large breasts. She was wearing a purple revealing dealer's outfit that accented her curves and features. The opening from the neck extended to the chest, revealing her large bust. Below, the top, having only one button, ended above her navel, exposing her midriff and lower back. On her lower body was a purple miniskirt and matching heels to complete her revealing ensemble. On her top was an I.D tag reading 'Rio Rollins Tachibana'.

"Hi." Spike greeted looking a little flustered.

"I noticed you're about to start a slot. First time?" she asked.

"First in awhile." he confessed.

"I see. Well, how about a little luck?" she offered.

"Well, I try not to believe in luck too much. But I could make an exception." he gave her the coin. He watched her kiss it before handing it back to him.

"Enjoy." she smiled and walked off.

Spike looked at the coin, before inserting it into the machine. He pulled the lever and watched the slots roll. Suddenly popping up were three sevens in a row. The machine rang as pools of coins poured out.

"Jackpot!" he cheered, as he took in all the coins he earned, "Thank you, lady luck." he said gratefully.

He then decided to try something else. He wandered before happening across a card table, where several avatars were seated. Spike approached and spoke, "Mind if I join you guys?"

One avatar that looked like a mobster squinted before answering, "Not at all."

Spike took a seat in between two others, "Game's poker, gentlemen." the dealer said, as he distributed cards. Soon they substituted cards for new ones, and started putting in chips.

Spike made sure to keep a poker face up, as they continued to wager chips, until one by one several were folding. Finally it was down to him and the mobster avatar.

"I'll raise ya this much." the mobster slid more chips in.

"Hmm, not bad. But I'll be raising this much." Spike bet a whole mess of chips.

This got the mobster nervous before speaking, "I fold!" he laid his cards down.

"Too bad," Spike said, before revealing his own cards, "Pair oh 2s." he smirked.

"What?!" the players asked in outrage.

"Sorry, boys. But them's the breaks," Spike said collecting all the chips and stored them. He got up, "Fun playing with you." he took his leave making the others drop their heads in defeat while some pounded the table in frustration.

As Spike left, he was unaware of a single Ravager hiding out while keeping a close eye on him. He looked around spotting the girls were around as well. Twilight was using her calculated mind to help her in blackjack. Rainbow and Pinkie were at the slot machines earning and losing coins, with Rainbow doing more losing and Pinkie doing more winning. Rarity and Fluttershy were just mingling around with several other avatars trying to get some juicy gossip on what's going on. Applejack and Sunset were doing some roulette.

The Ravager spoke into a comm, "They're here."

---

Soon Spike and the girls met back up at the rendezvous, as Spike spoke, "So, how was everyone's fun?"

"I sure hit the jackpot." Pinkie admitted happily.

"I learned some her juicy tidbits going around Eden." Rarity giggled.

"I broke even." Rainbow crossed her arms and grumbled.

"Well, at least ya still didn't lose anything." Sunset noted.

"Yeah. But I also didn't earn anything new." Rainbow pouted.

"There's always next time." Twilight patted her shoulder.

"What about you, Spike?" Applejack asked.

"I hit the jackpot here." Spike showed them his winnings from both the slot machine and poker playing.

Applejack whistled, "You sure got lucky today."

"If you're on such a roll, then you should keep at it." Rainbow encouraged him.

"Tempting, but I don't wanna end up overstepping it." Spike replied.

"Agreed," Twilight nodded, "So let's hurry on out of here."

Before they could leave, a laser shot almost nailed their feet causing them to jump, and put everyone around on high alert. The team saw the Ravager who was spying on them.

"Rainbooms and Shenron?" he asked.

The team stood their ground, as Spike asked suspiciously, "Who wants to know?"

"I have direct orders to take you down. Gives yourselves up peacefully. You don't wanna make this into a scene." he answered.

Rainbow laughed, "Buddy, you got not idea who you're dealing with."

"Rainbow, don't..." Twilight tried to warn her.

"What? It's just one Ravager." Rainbow reminded her

"Funny thing about us Ravagers," he began, "We never travel alone." entering from every possible entrance were more Ravagers armed and ready.

"Uh, right." Rainbow answered sheepishly.

"Take them!" the one Ravager ordered, as they started attacking or opening fire. This caused so many avatars to exit the casino or just leave Eden.

Spike and the girls split up to take cover or fight off the sentries. As Spike and Twilight ducked before a turned over table, the dragon spoke to the girl, "Why're they only targeting us?"

"I have no idea!" Twilight said in worry, before knowing they had to get out there and fight.

Twilight used her magic beams to take out three Ravagers, before one was about to attack her from behind.

"Twi, incoming!" Applejack called, as she punched the enemy away while equipped with the gloves of Garnet the Crystal Gem.

"Thanks, A.J." Twilight said, as she resumed fighting.

Rainbow dodged and ran circles around some Ravagers, before grabbing one of their blasters and started shooting down more of them, "This makes me feel so much happier!" she cheered, as she helped herself to the Ravagers loot.

Pinkie was bouncing around like a ball dodging the Ravagers, before selecting two items from her stash being jars. In one jaw was marbles, and in the second jar was jacks pieces. She then spread them both on the floor causing a few Ravagers to slip.

When one slipped, he ended up landing on his butt which landed on top of some jacks. He screamed in pain, before getting up and ran around in circles before sitting back down dragging his butt across the floor.

"Gotta be careful with jacks!" Pinkie laughed.

Sunset had selected from her stash a star item granting her a moment of invincibility allowing he to take down some Ravagers without worrying about taking damage.

Fluttershy was unleashing gusts of wind to blow her enemies away, as Rarity was launching diamond disks destroying some more.

"I say we're gaining the upper hand." Rarity told Fluttershy who smiled.

One Ravager who had been ducking behind a slot machine aimed its blaster at Rarity, before opening fire. Rarity got shot in the back making her fall to the ground.

"Rarity!" Fluttershy cried, as the others saw her.

They watched as her gauge dropped down half way, "Another blow like that and she's done." Twilight feared.

"Girls, cover me!" Spike ordered, as he hurried to Rarity. The girls kept the Ravagers at bay, as Spike reached the girl.

"Rarity?" he asked.

Rarity sighed, "I should've watched my back there."

"Don't worry. I'm gonna help you." Spike took from his stash a bottle of liquid.

"What's that?" she asked.

Spike smiled, "Phoenix Healing Tears. Courtesy of my familiar Peewee."

He poured the phoenix tears on Rarity, as her health was restored full gauge, "Oh, that feels so much better. Thank you."

"Thank me later. Let's get back in there." Rarity nodded, as the two helped their friends.

As Sunset and Twilight were put back to back, the bacon haired girl spoke, "We can't keep this up forever."

"I know, they just keep coming." Twilight agreed.

As Spike was spitting fire balls at his enemies, he thought to himself, 'Oh, man. Lady Luck, if you're still on my side. I could use a little more of it now!' he saw he was about to get blasted by a Ravager, and made a dive underneath a card table.

He looked and suddenly saw underneath the table with him was a red glowing stone.

"An infinity stone? And it's the Reality one!" he gasped to himself, and smirked with an idea forming.

As the girls were starting to get tired, Pinkie spoke, "Girls, I think this may be it for us."

"Oh, I don't wanna go out like this." Fluttershy whimpered.

As the Ravagers looked ready to finish them, voices started calling.

"Hello!"

"Oh, Ravagers!"

The Ravagers ceased their firing, and turned to see an armada of sexy bunny girls that worked in the casino looking giddy and giggling their way. They skipped and pranced to the sentries piling all around them.

"You boys work so hard." one of them said, flirting with one of the soldiers.

"It must cause you a lot of stress." another flirted, as the Ravagers were too stunned and aroused to protest.

The Rainbooms looked oddly, as Spike whispered, "Psst. Girls." they saw Spike hiding behind a turned over table.

The girls took cover, "Spike's what's going on?" Twilight asked.

"Where did all them gals come from?" Applejack wondered.

"We thought everyone cleared out when they showed up." Rainbow sad equally confused.

Spike smirked, "Reality is often disappointing. That is, it was," he showed them the Reality Stone, "Now, reality can be whatever I want."

The girls marveled, "Saved by the stone." Rainbow said trying to contain her excitement.

"Come on, let's get out of here." Twilight said, as they removed their goggles and exited Eden.

Upon exiting, the illusion vanished, and the Ravagers saw the Bunny Girls were fake, "What?!" a Ravager asked in shock.

"No!" another growled.

"They tricked us!"

"The boss is not going to like this." another said, as they exited the game.

---

At the dinner table, the girls and Spike were discussing what happened in Eden with Celestia and Luna, "They just only went for us." Spike finished.

"This is indeed troubling." Luna answered.

"But why go after us alone?" Twilight asked.

"I have my suspicions someone's been keeping an eye on all of you and reported you to Grogar," Celestia began."

"Oh, great." Sunset sighed as dropped her head back.

"And now he feels threatened by your rankings and potential," Celestia continued.

"Who could've blabbed about us to him?" Rainbow asked.

"I do not know."

"Whoever did must have eyes and ears all over Eden." Fluttershy feared.

"As long as nobody there knows about your true identities than Grogar cannot get to you in the real world." Luna reminded them.

"Which is why it's imperative you keep your identities secret in Eden, and be careful with who you interact with." Celestia added.

The girls and Spike nodded, as Rarity spoke, "Well, none of us would've gotten out of there had it not been for Spike finding the Reality stone."

"And in a casino of all places?" Applejack asked.

"You know artifacts are all over the place, even places you'd least expect." Spike reminded her.

The girls nodded, "Well, everyone eat up. It's been a long day." Pinkie said, as they all started chowing down. As they ate, Rarity kept taking glances Spike's way, while remembering how he saved her in Eden, and felt obligated to personally thank him.

---

Later that night, as everyone went to their rooms to sleep, Spike who was in his sleep attire was quietly walking to Rarity's room. When he reached her door he knocked on it lightly but loud enough for her to hear.

"Come in." came Rarity's voice.

Spike quietly slipped into Rarity's room and gently closed the door behind him. Rarity's room was posh like her with curtains hanging above her tall bedposts, a full body mirror set up in a corner, two mannequin models, and a huge walk in closet which would probably contain more clothes than anyone could buy in a whole year. He saw Rarity sitting on her bed wearing only a white bathrobe. Though the sash was tied tight, Spike could still see her bust trying to peek out, and noticed she wasn't wearing a bra.

Spike blushed, as Rarity smiled and stood up, "Spike, darling. So nice of you to join me." she began sweetly.

"Yeah, well, I just wanted to see what you wanted." Spike answered with a stammer, while trying to keep his eyes from looking down.

"What I want is you, Spike."

"Huh?"

"Spike, what you did for me in Eden. Saving me from going out and losing everything I had. That took pure courage and heart. I know you would've done the same if any of the others were in the same predicament, but for you to have done that and risk your own safety. You truly are a wonder."

"I try." he answered sheepishly.

Rarity surprised Spike by pressing herself against Spike and kissed him. Spike was surprised, before he closed his eyes and started kissing Rarity back, while wrapping his arms around her waist. As they stood passionately kissing, they eventually started using tongue.

When they parted, Rarity spoke, "Spike, in gratitude for helping me I've decided to give you the best reward a lady could give a man as handsome and loving as you."

'Why do I have a feeling I know where this is going?' Spike thought to himself.

Rarity reached down and undid the sash before slipping the robe off to reveal her naked body to Spike. Spike needless to say gazed as Rarity's curvaceous and hourglass figure as if it was the Holy Grail or something.

"Like something you see, Spikey-Wikey?" Rarity asked, while crossing her arms under her impressive bust.

"I-uh..." Spike started to drip beads of sweat off his forehead, as he gazed upon the sexy naked beauty in front of him.

"I figured the perfect way I could thank you for saving me, is by giving ally of myself to you." she explained with a wink.

"Well, I appreciate this generous thank you." Spike admitted.

"I'm glad. Now let's make sure you're comfortable." Rarity said as he pulled Spike's undershirt up and off.

Spike's arms quivered, as she gently laid her hands on Spike's bare chest while feeling him up as well. Spike pulled down his sleep shorts leaving him in hos boxers. Let's take this to the bed. Rarity turned off her main room light while a lamp on her dressed close to her bed was dimly lit giving them some light.

Rarity pulled Spike onto her bed and laid the boy down with her on top straddling him. Spike looked up, as Rarity reached down pressing her bust into his chest while kissing him all over. Spike wrapped his arms around her once again keeping her close. They made out for awhile, until they reversed positions and Spike found himself on top of Rarity.

Spike put his hands to Rarity's breasts and started fondling them, "Oh, Spike. So aggressive!" Rarity moaned, while feeling frisky.

"You brought this out of me by getting all commando." Spike said huskily, as he massaged her boobs.

"Then I succeeded." Rarity smirked, as she enjoyed getting ravished by Spike.

Sometime later, both Spike and Rarity were laying in bed under the covers while embracing each other. The two snuggled close, as Rarity spoke.

"Spike, this was the best thing we've ever done."

"I'll say it was," Spike agreed, "Though should I be aware if the others intend on getting alone with me like this?"

"Only if you do something incredibly sweet for them, then you may want to be prepared. But they may also do it no matter what."

"Good to know." Spike yawned.

"It's been a long day, Spike," Rarity said, as she pulled Spike's head close deeply into her bosom, and continued, "Just relax and sleep, darling."

"Thank you, Rarity." Spike said, as he fell asleep in the comfort of her breasts.

Rarity smiled, as she reached over and turned her lamp off. She held Spike into her bosom and kissed his forehead before whispering, "Goodnight." and with that she fell asleep with Spike.
