The Fading Fire of a Dragon
"You're nothing you little piece of dragon spit, why do you think everyone hates you? You were a failure since the day you were born, no you were a failed abortion. You were a failure before you were even born Spike. Look around you, there's nothing left for you." Spike told himself as he entered his room. This was it, he'd lost faith in pretty much everything. That day was the day Spike would officially end it all. As he laid his stuff down he wondered all this time if he was a pet or a slave to Twilight Sparkle. At first he couldn't consider the possibility of such thing, but as Twilight grew more and more obsessed with books and less and less with Spike, he couldn't help but feel that his partner didn't see him as anything more than a slave. That's what happened this morning as Twilight completely ignored Spike even when he got to make breakfast for her. The next thing that happened was when he thought helping out Applejack do some applebucking would help get his self worth up. He basically worked himself out on an empty stomach as Twilight's ignorance affected him in such a way he didn't feel hungry. By noon he was a sweating mess as he went up to Applejack to tell her the job was done. All she responded back was, "whatever." Spike felt that something was amiss as this wasn't usually her behavior. AJ was honest but something was holding her back. Spike kept asking her as he was concerned about her and actually cared. But then came the outburst, "Get out of here you lil varmit or I'll send you to the hills!" Spike ran away crying as he thought maybe some food would cheer him up. He went up to Sugar Cube corner and expected Pinkie Pie to be there. He saw her sitting in the living room with her knees up to her face, she looked more psychotic than usual. She kept sputtering out words, "Let's…let's fix this little problem…hehe."
"Uh, Pinkie?" Spike asked. "Are you ok?"
"I AM FINE!" She yelled in a bombastic tone before shaking. She then pulled a knife from the drawer and started swinging at Spike. Traumatized he ran from the place not knowing that the cause of Pinkie Pie's insanity was that her entire kitchen almost burned down along with all of her cookbooks. Not knowing where else to go he decided to head to Carosel boutique before he felt a drop of water on him. He looked up and before he knew it, heavy drops of rain started to fall down onto him. He was counting on rainbow dash to stop the rain but the rain kept on pouring and it eventually turned into hail. Spike felt miserable as he thought this was some sort of sick joke while pieces of hail kept bruising his skin. But little did he know that Rainbow Dash was sleeping in as she has a rough night last night and was not watching over the weather. Spike entered Rarity's home to find her not at the door. As he walked through the house he heard somepony else talking with Rarity. He peeked around a corner to see her with another stallion. Spike hoped this wasn't what he thought it was, but his dreams shattered one by one as she kissed the unknown stallion. Even worse, he saw the beloved necklace he gave to Rarity in her trash bin. Devastated he ran out the door sobbing as he knew that Rarity had ultimately cheated on him. As he ran he saw Fluttershy taking shelter under a log and approached her. He asked her if she was ok as he saw her hair completely messed up. Feeling his last shrivel of kindness he kneeled down and reached out to her only for Fluttershy to bite him. Spike was now beyond the point where he saw friendship has gone topsy-turvy. But only if Fluttershy has the courage to say to Spike that she was almost attacked by a timber wolf before the storm came, Spike would've regained some hope. But all of Spikes hope was lost as he walked home slowly letting the hail continue to pound him. He even felt one of his fingers break but was so overcome with sadness that he didn't care about it. He didn't care about a thing in the world anymore. All it took was one bad day for everything to come crashing down, and finally his worst fear has come to pass. He kept on thinking that there was only one way to end this suffering, suicide. Yes, that was it. His friends didn't care about him anymore, his crush and love of his live betrayed him, and he now knew the truth that everypony saw him as a slave. He walked into his house that he once called home where Twilight was not reading. As a matter of fact she was nowhere to be found in the house. This very thought that Twilight left all for the purpose to leave Spike forever; it pushed the little dragon to the thought where he started to worship suicide as his savior, as his god. This was the only thought he had in his mind as he reached into a nearby chest and pulled out a handgun that he had bought a couple months ago. But something inside him told him to leave a note to remind his friends what they had done, after all, unless he'd write the note they'd never come up to his room to see if he was alright, they didn't care about them anymore. So he might as well shove the truth right in their faces. He placed the note on the library table and walked back upstairs before closing the door and holding the gun up to his head. He was ready to leave this world that had forsaken him and left him to suffer. The only sound he could hear now was the increasing beat of his heart as his finger crept closer and closer to pulling the trigger. If he wasn't so focused on that one sound, he would've heard the front door opening and Twilight sparkle reading the note before screaming and running upstairs. The last thing Twilight heard before she opened the door was a loud bang echoing throughout the room, but the only thing Spike heard was the soft, peaceful, and gentle click of a trigger.
It was the most relieving sound he ever heard.
