This is the next chapter for the Dragon Guardian. In here, Spike and Dash's past in revealed, and Spike does his first Trio spell. Oh, and Dash will have her own chapter, which will be the next one.

Chapter 9: Triple Fusion.

Dash and Spike stared at each other for a few moments until her eyes suddenly narrowed as she took a running start, and hit Spike square in the chest with drop kick with enough force to send him flying and crashing into a class window, shocking Applejack as she turned to see if Spike was alright.

"Oh, that hurt." Spike said as he remained in the window until Dash suddenly appeared in front of him, and glared at him as she grabs his arm and judo flipped him over her shoulder into the far wall.

"You have a lot of balls for coming into my gym after doing what you did." Dash yelled as she walked towards Spike, who fell out of the wall and landed on his back.

"Are you still on that?" Spike asked as he rubbed the back of his head as he got on one of his knees as he looked at the glaring teen walking towards him, and then he continued, "I told it wasn't me."

"Liar." Dash screamed as she suddenly took flight and soared at him with full speed, but just as she was about to hit Spike square in the chin, Applejack's boot slammed into Dash's fist and the impact sent them both flying. Dash suddenly stopped in mid air and looked over as Applejack did a few rolls, and landing on her feet.

"What the hell is going Dash?" Applejack asked as she wondered what her friend was doing.

"What I'm doing is punishing a pervert from the beginning of this year." Dash yelled as Applejack looked over at Spike with an angry look on her face as Spike got up to his feet.

"Wait, let me explain." Spike said as both Dash and Applejack looked at each other, and then folded their arms as Spike took a deep breath before he began, "Alright, it was my first day of high school and it was pretty okay until..."


It was a bright, beautiful summer afternoon as the new students of the high school continued to get used to their new school as the classes went on. Then the bell rang, signaling the students to go to their final class of the day. As Spike walked through the crowed heading to his own class, he heard something as he passed an empty hall way.

"Are you sure this is the right door?" a male voice asked and Spike wondered what that could have met, so he stopped and looked into the hallway, where he saw two young men the same age as him, one was slightly over weight with buck teeth, freckles, spikey orange hair and he wear a black t-shirt with a pair of scissors, blue jeans, and blue sneakers. The other one was very lanky as he was over a head tall the his friend with wild blue hair, freckles, and wear a a long sleeved green shirt, white dress pants, and red sneakers. Spike saw the duo looking through an old door and drooling over something.

"Hey, what are you guys doing?" Spike asked as he walked over to the stunned duo, who look at him and then each other as they turned back to him.

"Ummm, nothing." the tall one said as he and his friend looked nerves.

"Oh, really?" Spike asked as he pushed past the duo and peaked through the door, and was shocked to see a bunch of girls undressing in the locker room.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU LOOKING AT?" Spike quickly turned and saw a very angry Rainbow Dash glaring at him. Spike looked around and saw that the duo had ran off after he caught them.

"Wait, let me explain." Spike said as he tried to plead his case, but Dash was not hearing of it as she marched towards him while cracking her knuckles.


Spike finished explaining what had happened, but as he finished, he notice that by the looks on their faces, either of them believed Spike story.

"Oh, so your expecting us to by that bye that pile of BS?" Dash asked in a mocking tone as she took a step closer, which made Spike nerves.

"Yes, I do because..." Spike paused for a moment to figure out an answer that Dash would except. And as Spike looked around, he saw his answer and said as he pointed beside them, "Because their right there."

"Oh, like we're going to fall for that old trick, right Applejack?" Dash asked as she chuckled and as she looked right at Spike, but Applejack was to busy looking at where Spike had pointed.

"Ummm, Dash." she said without turning away from where she was looking.

"Huh, what is it?" Dash asked as she looked to see what had caught Applejack's attention and was shock to see two young men, matching Spike description to a t, were ogling a female yoga class.

"Oh, yeah. Downward dog baby." the taller of the two said as he and his friend watched the women stretching out in their tight yoga pants and sports bras. The duo were so fixated on their, 'show', they failed to notice a shadow appear behind them, reach down, and horsted off the floor.

"So, you like to watch girl you perverts?" the figure was Applejack as she walked with them up to where Dash was waiting, who was cracking her knuckles.

"I have a question." Dash asked as she walked up to the two crying young men and then she asked, "Were you the two that were watching girls changing this year?"

"No, we'll never do that." the shorter one said as he looked nervously at her.

"AJ?" Dash asked as she looked at her friend.

"No, their lying through their teeth." Applejack said with an angry tone.

"That's just great." Dash said as she pulled her fist back and then throw it forward aiming it right at them.


Meanwhile back at the woods, Twilight continued to fend off the Soul Life's vines with her staff combined with Rarity's magic and seamed to be doing fine. But after a few more swings of her staff, the diamond coating vanish from her staff.

"S-sorry d-darling." Rarity said as she panted and breathed heavily as she looked exhausted.

"Rarity, you alright?" Twilight asked as she hit a few more vines as she looked at her friend.

"Yeah, I'm just not used to using so much magic at one time." Rarity said as tried to stand up, but fell to her knees.

"Damn it." Twilight said as she stood next to the tired Rarity and placed them in a barrio sheer as she continued, "I just hope Spike will get here soon."


Back at the gym with the two young men out could in the front, after taking care of the duo, Dash lead Spike and Applejack to her secret training ground under the gym. As they entered, Dash hopped up on a pile of mats and looked at Applejack as she spoke.

"So, what's the plan to kill this, Life Soul." Dash asked as she looked at her friend.

"Soul Life." Applejack told her.

"What ever, so how do we kill it?" Dash asked in an excited tone.

"A trio spell with the three of us." Applejack said with a smile as she faced the other two.

"Wait, a trio?" Spike asked as he looked at the two of them nervously for a few moments until he continued, "Ummm, look. I've only had my powers for about two weeks."

"Wow, your a newb." Dash said with a smile on her face.

"Ummm, and I only have three attacks before I run out." Spike continued explaining why he was not ready for what they needed him for, and felt horrible as Dash began to laugh at him.

"Oh, your an uber newb." Dash laughed at him, but she was quickly silenced by Applejack yelling at her before turning to Spike with a smile as she talked to him.

"Relax, all you need to do is to cast a fire spell at the right time." Applejack reinsured him as Spike perked up, but was stopped by Dash.

"Wait, let's see what this shrimp can do before we trust him." Dash said as she pointed a target range at the far end wall of the gym. Spike looked nerves as he looked at Applejack, who smiled at him and reinsured him.

"Don't worry, I have some special apples to allow you to heal up and fill you magic energy right up." Applejack said with as Spike walked over to the target range and faced the target.

"Ha, he can't make it." Dash said with a smile as she took flight and floated over to watch him.

"Give him a chance." Applejack said as she walked up to watch him aim.

"Ha, I 'll flash him if he destroys the target." Dash said in a mocking tone and watched Spike focus on the target and aimed his palm to it.

"Student of the Lunar Princess: Dragon Blast." Spike yelled out as he fired a fire ball at the wooden target, which was hit dead on and turned to ashes with in seconds. Spike smiled and turned around with a smile on his face as he looked at a grinning Applejack and a shocked Dash.

"Damn, a newb with game." Dash said as she landed next to Spike and rubbed his head.

"Ummm, Dash." Applejack said as a nerves Dash looked back at her before she continued, "Didn't you say you'd do something if he did it?"

"Huh, what is talking ab..." Spike was cut off as he turned toward Dash, who had pulled up her sports bra and showed him her breast. Spike just stared at her for a few moments before blood blasted out of his nose and he falls over in a heap.

"Jeez, what does Twilight do with him all day?" Dash asked as she put her bra back on.

"Not, sure. But we need him up and talk over what we need to do for the spell." Applejack said as she and Dash helped Spike to his feet.


Back at the woods, Twilight's barrier was starting to give out as the Soul Life's vines continued to smash into the itm which put major stain on Twilight to keep it up.

"Darling, are you alright?" Rarity asked as she looked at her friend with concern on her face as Twilight continued to try and keep the barrier up. And with one giant vine smashed into the barrier, blood began to run out of her nose as it smashed into it again and it was enough to knock Twilight out. "Twilight!" Rarity yelled as she caught her friend as she fell and held her tightly as the giant vine pulled up and then rushed down towards them when suddenly a large tree appeared out of no where, and the roots pushed the duo out of the way.

"Oh, just made it." a voice said as Rarity turned to see Spike, Dash, and Applejack standing behind them. Applejack had he hands on the ground and then made the roots push the girls close to them.

"Oh, thank goodness your here." Rarity said as she tried to get Twilight to her feet, but could not get it and fell to the ground.

"Relax,we have this." Dash said as she Spike and Applejack stepped in front of them and faced the monster plant.

"You guys ready?" Applejack asked as she glared at the Soul Life and aimed her hands at it.

"I hope this works." Spike said as he felt a little nerves for doing this for the first time.

"Man up, we have only one shot." Dash said as she cracked her knuckles and readied herself as did Spike.

"Enough arguing, lets start. Student of the Solar Princess: Tree Over Grove." Applejack yelled as she slammed her hands down on the ground and a bunch of trees suddenly grew out of the ground, ripping the Soul Life out of the ground and wrapped it's branches around it.

"Student of the Solar Princess: Razor" Dash paused as she offered her hand to Spike.

"Student of the Lunar Princess: Dragon." Spike said as he grabbed her hand, and then the two aimed their hands out to the trapped Soul Life as they yelled together .

"Blast." they yelled as they throw their hands forwards and the fire and wind magic fused with each other before it hit the Soul Life, which was cut to ribbons by Dash's wind and Spike flames were able to incinerated. The Soul Life shrieked in pain as it was engulfed in flames and was son turned into nothing but ashes. After defeating it, Spike, Applejack, and Dash stood up straight and cheered at their victory, but Spike noticed Twilight was not moving as she laid in Rarity's arms.

"Is she alright?" Spike assed as he ran over to the two girls.

"Yes,she's just tired from using her magic to much." Rarity said with a smile on her face as Spike took Twilight and picked her up.

"Good, let's take her home." Applejack said with a smile as the group walked out of the woods, but none of them noticed the shadow figure watching for the shadows but without a smile on his face.

"Well, that wasn't as fun as I thought." he said with a smile on his face as he looked at the book he took from Twilight and then said, "Maybe, I should try something other then plants next time." And with that, he vanished into the shadows.

TBC.


Next Chapter: After having so much stress in the last few days, Rarity insists on the girls to join her on a spa weekend. But not wanting to go, Dash volunteers to teach Spike how to use his magic better and teach him a few tricks. But is there another reason for the spa trip?


Well, that was the end of this chapter. I know it seams a little anticlimactic, but I'm a little behind in the plot. My original plan had the whole Mane Six debut before chapter 10. So, I changed it up a little, but the first major arc will be soon. Please read and review.
