A/N: I hate school. It takes away too many privileges.
Pinkie Pie: Me too!
RG: 0_o You don't go to school.
Pinkie: I know. I've never been to school so I just go along with whatever you say. :D
RG: Oookay...
Anyways, let's begin! P.S. Thanks, people, for following and favoriting.
"Man, is this party epic, or what?" Cylli asked as she boogied on the floor with Pinkie.
"Totally!" the party mare agreed. "I always throw the best parties in Ponyville!"
"And the best bothiversaries!" Rainbow Dash added, hovering towards them.
Pinkie smiled at her friend. "Well, I couldn't have done it without Cheese!" She gasped and stopped dancing. "I HAVE THE GREATEST IDEA EVER!"
She bounced up to Pac, who was busy licking the remains of the cake that he ate. Himself. Seriously, no one else ever got a bite.
"Hiya, Paccy!" she said to the yellow Pacworlder.
He licked his lips and wiped his mouth with his hand as he turned to Pinkie Pie. "Oh, hi Pinkie," he replied. "Please don't call me that, by the way. It's weird and embarrassing."
Putting on her most serious and threatening face she could create, she challenged, "You, me, right now," and narrowed her blue eyes, "cake-eating contest."
Pac narrowed his eyes back at her. "Really? You're on! And you're gonna lose!"
"Uh, Pinkie?" Applejack told her. "Ah don't think that's a healthy ah' dea."
Pinkie waved her off. "Nah! It's totally healthy! I do all the time with Cheese Sandwich at his house! Though, there was that time I threw up after I ate fifteen cakes and I wouldn't stop for an hour!"
The orange mare stared at her. "Ya know where he lives?"
She laughed. "Of course I know where he lives! What kind of friend would I be if I didn't?
"Anyway..." She grabbed her party cannon and fired it at the table where she blasted out two, really large cakes resembling the ones used for weddings.
"Whoa...those are the biggest cakes I've seen in my life!"Spiral exclaimed.
"Where in Pacworld did she get those?" Cylli asked.
Twilight chuckled. "Nopony ever finds out, and probably never will. The only ponies who probably know are Cheese and her," she answered.
Pac stared longingly at the two cakes, drooling. "On the count of three,"he said.
"One..."Pinkie began.
"Two..."Pac continued.
Then, chorusing together, they yelled, "THREE!" And in two seconds flat, both the pony and the Pacworlder had devoured their cakes in one bite.
"I didn't know there was someone else who had Pac-man's appetite!"the president laughed.
"Well, that fill'eh can drink half o' the cider mah fam'ly makes fer cider season," Applejack told him. "It's like she's a black hole 'r somethin'."
"Redo!" Pinkie cried, and fired two more cakes from the cannon just like the previous ones. This happened for half an hour, and they had to stop the two before someone barfed all over the place.
"Well, I guess it's time to go home now!" Twilight stated after two more hours of fun. After some hugs and good-byes, Pac, his friends, and the six ponies all walked over to where the portal last was. There was no portal.
"NO! How could this have happened!? I never saw anypony go back in!"
Spike wandered around, being careful not to fall off the edge. He had no idea where he was. It was dark, smelly, and extremely hot. Was this Tartarus? Oh Celestia, what in Equestria did I do wrong?! he thought.
"Hello? Twilight! Rarity? Anypony around here?" he called out. He was scared, nervous. He never went outside of Ponyville or Canterlot on his own.
"Aww... He's adorable!"a voice behind him cooed.
"Rainbow Dash? Is that you!?" That had to be the voice of the daredevil pegasus! "Oh, I'm so glad to see you-AHH!" As he turned around, he saw four figures hovering behind him. From their shape, they could only be one thing. "GHOSTS!" Spike turned tail and ran a few steps before tripping on a rock.
As they floated towards him, he curled up into a ball, shivering in fright. "P-p-please don't h-hurt me,"he stammered.
"Oh, relax," the pink one told him. "It's not like we attack dragons, especially cute adorable ones like you!"
"Seriously, Pinky?" the blue one said with sarcasm. "What's cute about this freak?"
"Shut up, Inky!"
"Don't worry about them. There's nothing to be afraid of here," the fat, derpy-eyed, orange one assured him.
"Except Lord Betrayous," the one named Inky mumbled.
The red ghost came closer to Spike, studying him. The terrified dragon started sweating and gulped. "You're not from the Nether, are you?" the ghost asked.
"Uh... what's the 'Nether'?" That was not in any of the books Twilight made him read. Was it as bad as Tartarus?
"Of course he's not from this stinkin' place, Blinky, you idiot!" Inky yelled. "He's scared of four silly ghosts! The guy's a scaredy-pac! I bet he wouldn't survive looking at the cyclops!"
Spike felt a bit of anger rise up in him. Standing up, he boasted, "I-I'm not scared! You guys just startled me, that's all! Yeah, and I could handle some cyclops!" He wondered what Applejack would say if she knew what lie he was telling these ghosts.
The orange one petted him like a puppy, which was very uncomfortable. "You don't have to pretend your scared. Anyone gets scared now and then!
"You must be lost, since this isn't your home, right?" Spike nodded, feeling like he could trust this one.
"That figures," the pink ghost spoke again. "You look nothing like the dragons here! By the way, who are you, since you talk and all?"
Should he say his name? Could he really trust all of them like his friends? "I'm Spike," he told them.
"I'm Pinky, and these are my brothers: Inky, Blinky, and Clyde! Nice to meet you, Spike!" She held out her arm, which had no hands or claws. He cautiously shook it. "You don't have to be afraid of us anymore, y'know."
Spike blinked. "You sound a lot like my friend Rainbow Dash," he said, pointing to Pinky. "And you sound like my friend Snips!" He pointed to Inky.
Inky went full rage mode. "Why does she get the cooler name!" he yelled. "And I get some stupid snippy name!"
"What is that noise? Can't a ghost just rest in peace here?" Another voice appeared, coming closer.
"It's Lord Betrayous!" Blinky cried.
"Hide!" Pinky whisper-screamed to Spike as they soared away.
"Guys, wait!" Spike called out to them, before tripping on the same rock as earlier. He had no time to get up and run, because the silhouette of the ghost named Lord Betrayous grew larger on the ground.
The ghost finally appeared with a companion as Spike pressed himself up against the rocky wall. He was white, tipped with black at the edge. His red eyes were filled with revenge, and his sharpened teeth gleamed from the light of the torch the other held. Unlike the ghost friends Spike made, this ghost had long, metal claws which could probably pierce through him. His partner was a shade of purple, with a bored expression that was probably permanent. He had a white mustache and wore a small hat. His forehead reminded Spike of a butt. It would have been hilarious, if he were not scared for his life!
"Well, what do we have here?" The ghost's voice really sent a chill up his spine. He eyed him top to bottom. "You look strange for a dragon."
"Sir, I don't think this one is a local dragon," the ghost with the torch said.
"A-are you Lord Betrayous?" Spike asked when he had enough courage to speak.
The ghost looked stunned. "Why, do you know me?" he questioned back. "I'm flattered!"
"Some other ghosts mentioned your name." Then, Spike asked something he had to know. "Um, the other ghosts didn't say anything about you, but are you, uh, a bad guy?"
The six ponies all babbled at once, wondering what happened to the portal and freaking out.
"Nonononononono! This can't be happening! THIS CAN"T BE HAPPENING!"
"What in tarnation's going on? How come it's not here?!"
"P-please, please b-be just a dream! A scary, life-like, horrible dream!"
"Ooh, a guessing game! Maybe it's on vacation?"
"This isn't cool! I knew I shouldn't have agreed to this!"
"NOOO! We're doomed, doomed I tell you!"
"Calm down, all of you!" Pac told them all, his voice loud and demanding, which silenced the six mares. "You guys won't be able to solve this with all this noise!"
"Preach it, Pacster!" Spiral cheered.
Twilight took deep, long breaths. "You're right," she agreed. "But nopony was on the other side, except for..." She gasped. How could she forget? "SPIKE!"
Betrayous knew he had to get this little dragon on his side. Maybe the lizard was a powerful creature, though he was small. Some things were never as they seemed, anyway. "Of course not!" he replied in the most charming voice he could. It made him want to gag at the fact he had to pretend to be a good guy, but it was the only way for him to convince the dragon to join him. The little guy seemed gullible enough to believe it. "I can be strict at times, though, but it's only because I want my minio- er, followers to become good ghosts!" Beside him, Buttler rolled his eyes.
"Oh. Okay." Good. The dragon was such a fool.
Placing his claws on his shoulder, Betrayous asked him, "How would you like to join me and my crew as we battle evil? We could always use a helping claw?"
The young dragon tilted his head. "Do I get anything for doing this? Not that I care or anything."
"Whatever you like," the evil ghost tempted.
The green eyes lit up. "Can you give me my own personal meal of gems!?"
"Of course! Just come with me..."
Higher up were four ghosts hiding, who witnessed the whole thing. "Uh oh," Blinky said worriedly. "Looks like little Spike just joined the dark side."
"Oh, we have to warn Paccums!" Pinky told the others.
"Why?" Inky wondered. "It's not like he's a threat or anything to Pacworld."
"That could probably be a disguise to fool anyone to think he's weak, ya'know! Remember the time we first ran into Paccums?"
"Come on, gang!" Blinky instructed the three other ghosts, and they flew off towards the secret portal to the world above.
Dun dun DUNNNN! Not Spike! In case some of you are wondering why Spike is in the Nether realm, the portal Twilight created was not done correctly, which sends anyone in a random area. This means that if the portal was still active, somepony else in Equestria could have ended up in a completely different area.
Also, sorry if anyone's OOC. I'm trying really hard to keep them in character!And sorry if it's too short.
And also, I'd love it if you review! No flames, though. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. Toodles!
