My Little Pony Friendship is Magic: Secret of My Excess

I have to confess that I have been dealing with a medical problem involving one of my toes recently and I went to the doctor's yesterday. Good news is that I'm taking medication for the problem, and next week, the doctor will be able to help fix the problem.
Read, review, and enjoy!

CHAPTER FOUR: RARITY VS GODZILLA-SPIKE
Meanwhile at Carousel Boutique, Rarity was posing in front of a mirror and trying on the cape, seeing if she needed to add anything to it. Little did she know, Godzilla-Spike had appeared and was peering through one of the windows with a single green eye.
"Hm, perhaps some more ruffle," she decided and turned to get the ruffles, but she saw the giant green eye and screamed when he punched through the wall, grabbing her in his fist.
Soon an air raid siren was going off until Godzilla-Spike grabbed it and stomped through the town with ponies screaming and fleeing for their lives as he roared. Rarity was being carried by way of his tail and she was screaming and struggling to get freed. He was trying to put a cart into the chicken coop, but it wouldn't fit, and then he saw the water tower.
Godzilla-Spike yanked off the top and dump everything he'd taken into it while ponies fled from the flooding water.
"Put me down, you brute!" Rarity shrieked and Godzilla-Spike roared at her, making her mane go straight while exposing her to dragon breath.
Rarity made a face. "How rude."
"Don't worry Rarity, we'll save you!" Fluttershy called out as she and Rainbow Dash flew up to either side of Godzilla-Spike's head in order to distract him and, hopefully, talk him down after learning from Twilight Sparkle and Sunrise Blossom why the baby dragon they loved was now such a huge dragon.
"Put her down, right now!" the blue pegasus.
The yellow pegasus smiled nervously. "I-If you wouldn't mind, that is…"
"I mean it, dragon boy!" Rainbow Dash shouted angrily.
"We'll be ever so grateful if you'd be so kind as to possibly consider…" Fluttershy began, but she and Rainbow Dash ended up having to dodge when Godzilla-Spike began waving his tail to bat them away.
"Drop her, scaly!"
"Hey!" Rarity shrieked as she flew through the air. "I'm– not some– sort of common– fly swatter!" She was devastated when the two pegasus got caught in her cape, which then tore, and they both fell toward the ground, screaming, and splashed into the stream below. "Girls! My cape!" And Godzilla-Spike roared triumphantly.
Rainbow Dash freed herself and Fluttershy of the purple fabric in time to see three familiar-looking pegasus fly overhead to take on the dragon. "Look! The Wonderbolts!"
Godzilla-Spike growled when he saw the Wonderbolts heading his way. Spotting a nearby mountain, he climbed up it, swatting at the Wonderbolts as they flew around him, and Rarity was screaming again. He dumped his loot into a cave and then he caught the Wonderbolts in the water tower container, which he then slammed against the side of the mountain, trapping him. Pleased he began to roar again.
"Oh, be quiet," Rarity snapped and the dragon looked at her. "You've got nothing to be proud of. You steal everypony's things, terrorize the town, and use me as a weapon against my own friends! Which, as horrible as it is, I can almost understand because you're a dragon and all. But this!" She ripped off what was left of the cape and magically held it up so that he could see it. "This is a crime against fashion!" she shrieked and then she saw that he was eying the fire ruby that was still around her neck. "Oh no," she warned, covering it with her forelegs. "You are not getting this gemstone! This was given to me by my dear friend Spikey-wikey, the kindest, sweetest, most generous dragon ever. And it is too precious to me to give to a greedy old beast like you!"
Godzilla-Spike growled, but then he remembered something. `"Rarity, you take it. It would mean even more to see you happy than to eat it myself"`. `"I… I don't know what to say. This is just so generous."` He touched the spot on his cheek, where he'd been kissed by the grey unicorn last week, and he began to tear up.
"Oh, what now?" Rarity asked angrily, seeing the tears. "I suppose you'll be eating me or something?" She suddenly found herself in the air and Godzilla-Spike had turned back into regular baby dragon Spike! "Spike?!" she exclaimed, staring in shock. "You're the rampaging dragon?!" They then began falling back toward the ground, screaming.
Pinkie Pie saw all of this through binoculars and she panicked. "Somepony do something!" And but all Twilight Sparkle and Sunrise Blossom could do was watch in horror while Applejack hid her face with her hat.
"On it!" said Rainbow Dash, grabbing Fluttershy and they retrieved the fabric from the water. Holding it between them, they flew upward to save their friends.
Positive that they were going to die, Spike decided to confess to the grey unicorn. "Rarity? I need to tell you something!" he called out to her over the wind. "Just in case we don't make it! I've always sort of had a crush-" he stopped when she put a hoof over his mouth and smiled at him in a way that meant she already knew about his crush on her. Just then, the two pegasus managed to catch them in the fabric and return them to the ground.
"We did it!" Fluttershy cheered. "I can't believe we did it!"
Back on the mountain, the water tower fell down with a loud crash, revealing the Wonderbolts, who were huddled together. Realizing that they were freed, they quickly flew away.
Rainbow Dash was beaming, proud. "All in a day's work."
Rarity went over to Spike, who was sitting on the side of the bridge, staring at the damage he'd caused, and he was upset with himself. "Spike, I just have to tell you how absolutely proud I am of you," she announced.
The baby dragon blinked and looked at her uncertainly. "Proud of me?"
"Yes. It was you who stopped… w-well, you, from destroying Ponyville," Rarity pointed out. "You are my hero, Spikey-wikey! And she kissed him on the same cheek once again.
Later that same day, work on restoring Ponyville and returning all the stolen items was nearly completed with the ponies working together. Spike did take a time out so that he could write a letter to Princess Celestia about the lesson he'd just learned while Rarity restored her cape and presented her friends with capes of their own.
"Dear Princess Celestia," he wrote on the parchment. "Today I learned a great lesson about friendship. Well, you might think that it would feel good to get lots and lots of stuff, but it doesn't feel nearly as good as giving something special to somepony you really care about. But I learned that it truly is better to give than to receive, and that kindness and generosity are what lead to true friendship. And that's more valuable than anything in the world. Well… almost anything." He had framed the kiss from Rarity this time, hoping that Twilight Sparkle wouldn't try to wash it off again.
A/N: Spike is back to normal and life is returning to normal…again. See you all on Tuesday! R&R everyone!
