Twilight and the other's were stunned speechless with shock and surprise, Twilight's mother just revealed someone had called and she said it was someone they thought was dead for 8 years.

"Mom are you sure it wasn't someone pulling a prank?" Twilight asked.

"i'm certain that voice was Spike's" Velvet told her.

"are you saying our pal Spike is still alive" Discord spoke.

"I was skeptic to but then Spike told his story he was left on our door stop and up to the time the boat went down in the ocean" Velvet told him.

"did he say where he was" Thorax asked.

"shockingly he said he was flying in from Japony" Night Light told Thorax.

"How in gods earth did he end up all the way there?" Tempest Shadow asked.

"Even Spike does not know" Velvet told her "and I called the school so we could all meet him, I already told Shining Armor" she said, seconds later after she said that the all left in a hurry in their cars and left to the Airport.

"It was actually funny about that, I heard Shining faint when he was on the phone" Night Light chuckled.


The groups had arrived at the airport, they were waiting for the Japony flight, minutes later four more had arrived, Applebloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Shining Armor, Button Mash, Rumble and Pipsqueak who was no longer short but he came up to their chins thanks to his growth spurt.

Then the intercom went off "Flight 29 Japony One Niner has landed" a males voice said, the group looked up at the elevators where the flights to Japony gate is. Then the doors opened revealing a blinding sunlight since the walk way had glass and both sides and many people walked out but no Spike.

"I swear if some prank'ed called I'm getting a baseball bat" Pharynx glowered, then everyone talked to the other if it was possible someone could have done that, from all the way from Japony.

"and if it is Spike, it has been 8 years he may not look the same" Rumble spoke.

"Just look for someone with Purple skin like Twilight's and green spiky hair" Night Light said. Then Button Mash saw something walking through the doors and his eyes widened with shock.

"uh guys?" Button spoke.

"What is it Button?" they all asked, then lifted a shaky hand.

"Are you okay you look like you saw a ghost?" Sweetie Belle asked her boy friend actually they all had boy friends and girlfriends, except Applejack.

"He lives" he pointed with a finger at the doors, they all turned and gasped.

"Holy Balls" Discord gasped getting kicked in the shin by Fluttershy from the crass word "That can't be him" he gaped

through the doors was a 16 year old boy, with green neat hair some of it in spikes and purple skin like Twilight's, that teen was Spike.

Their breaths were stolen with shock not and not because he was alive but they way he looked, he was tall as Applejack who was 3 inches taller than the other teens and almost reached Shining Armor's chin and he was very well built, sure all the teens all had athletic builds except Button was still lanky but toned Spike looked like a Triathlete. his legs were toned and chiseled could be seen through his black jeans with a purple belt on his waist with a dark purple shirtsleeve shirt with a green fire ball on the front, the shirt was tucked in so they could see the edges of his abs and his chest was pressed against the fabric, his arms and shoulders traps were pressed against the black leather jacket, he was wearing a silver necklace shaped like a dragon's head attached to a woven strand around his neck stopped in the middle of his chest. on his feet he was wearing black wolverine boots he was carrying a duffel bag and had a snow board case in his hand, he swung his duffel over gracefully put the strap of his duffel bag on the opposite shoulder so it was diagonally across his body.

The group was stunned, Applejack looked up as the last and suddenly had Thunderstruck thoughts as the glow of the sun light basked him in her perspective she heard imagining clunking of spurs as he walked to the escalator, as Thunderstruck music played.

His face was just as round as theirs, he had a faint scar like Tempest but Spike's was on his right when he turned to look at a couple of girls one his age and one older gave him dreamy looks passing by, the scar started on the lower part of his temple down to the edge of his chin but had green eyes that matched his hair.

Spike looked and smiled as he saw His family and friends, then stepped on to the elevator as it took him down and he ran up and hugged his mom and dad tightly as they did with tears of happiness, then his big sister and brother joined in.

"Spike your alive!" they cried.

"The world can't keep me down forever" Spike smiled, then they broke apart and Spike turned to his friends.

"Spike?" Rumble said still gaping.

"In The Flesh" Spike smirked, then one by one the guys gave him the bro hug and the girls each hugged him warmly.

"What happened where were you how are you so big and tall?" Cheese Sandwich babbled.

"Easy easy" Spike chuckled.

"But seriously Spike how are you still alive not that were not thrilled and relieved" Twilight Sparkle asked.

"I was just as surprised to after the ship went down" Spike smirked.

"Is Scorpan-" Velvet started Spike just shook his head sadly.

"No I was only one who made it" Spike sighed.

"I'm sorry Spike he was the last on your side of the family" Velvet hugged him gently.

"no your family, I'm just glad to be back in it" Spike said.

"we are to" Spike's family said.

"I will say this you are one tough guy to make it back after 8 years" Rainbow punched his shoulder playfully.

"So what was Japony like?" Twilight asked.

"very beautiful and colorful, food there is good and people there are fairly pleasant" Spike smirked.

"Thats a cool necklace" Rarity said.

"Thanks a little souvenir" Spike smirked "So how about we get some lunch and talk?" he said.

"I'm game for alittle grub" Applejack spoke.

"Some eats and a story" Cheese Sandwich said.

"Then it's settled" Spike smirked "Lets go" he said, then he took out his old wallet which was wrinkled from the ocean and ruined.

"But lets go to the mall for some new clothes and phone and a wallet" Velvet said looking at his ruined wallet.

"Yeah I barely had enough money to pay for a ticket from Japony" Spike chuckled "they could barely see my picture but luckily I paid in cash so they didn't care not that I would cause trouble" he said.

"Well lets move out" Pinkie Pie skipping out, Then Spike noticed some of his friends holding hands with his other friends making him smirk.

"So you guys are seeing someone" Spike smirked.

"What are you talking about" they said all at once.

"Come on when we were growing up you had quite the attraction for the other" Spike said "I was just wondering when you guys and girls were going to step forward" he said.

"Yes we are dating and we have girlfriends" Flash Sentry smirked.

"all except Applejack over here" Rainbow Dash smirked.

"Thanks for saying that" the farm girl gritted.

"Can't see why she is a nice and wonderful girl" Spike said before covering his mouth at his slip, making them stop and look at him.

"Aww thats so sweet" Cheese Sandwich giggled.

"Maybe your should date her" Rainbow Dash snickered.

"Uh, I just got here so I don't want to go that fast, at least not yet" Spike said.

"Don't take too long, before she is snatched" Capper said.

Then Rarity whispered in his ear "I don't think she will date after what happened with Trenderhoof darling" she said, but Spike was close to them so he could hear but left it alone.
