Almost entirely the sky was blue, no cloud interfered with its indefinite and finite blue, nor did any Pegasus mold it, even though it was unthinkable that there would be a Pegazo in that area, that immense Sea of Sky was what Spike's eyes saw while it stopped at the top of one of the thickest trunks of the second largest tree in the forest around Yusuf's land.

The great trees of the forest, covered the land almost making it invisible, the huge mansion that loomed inside the forest. This quiet forest was located on the Griffostone Peninsula near the River Cut hiding the huge room.

A lot that almost resembled a block with about 100 meters wide and 100 meters long, however the door that led to the entrance of the lot had a closed sign. The outside of the mansion had a rustic and old air, of a Vanilla White Color, the roof was made with black tiles, Enough wide for a single person almost the entire land was occupied by the house, with 3 floors, many sales almost in its Most with old and rustic looking balconies. Even behind the mansion there was a small garage.

However, it was not the only house for lodging, other 6 cabins, clean and of a more rustic wood color and with a village appearance, were on the land but Empty.

In front of all these houses that formed an L in front of them there was a pool 4 wide, 6.50 long and 1.60 deep. The grass of the place was really beautiful and lived (Brazilian grass) completely weed, there were trees on the ground but mostly flowers or fruits.

Suddenly a chime was heard, the Dragon's ears heard this.

What happened old man, you can't stand being alone for a few hours that you prepare food faster than usual "stands on the trunk" Well I guess I'm a little hungry.

He jumped from the trunk where he was standing, landing on one of the trees below, he ran from Tree to Tree like an agile and fast Puma, his shadow was seen across the grass, Spike ran, Jumped, Climbed, Swayed, Climbed, He displayed his incredible skills at the speed of an eagle flying from trunk to trunk improvising at the moment, clinging to wood with his fingers as if they were hooks, he reached a sector where the branches, leaves and trees had merged creating a vegetative wall, but luckily for the Dragon Yusuf he had already anticipated this before he began his Daily training.

Spike stopped short on an old and rotten looking trunk of a Tree, attached to the end of this was a coiled Liana, which held a small but heavy trunk.

Spike approached her and took the vine with one hand and with his right foot, the rotten end of the Trunk, gave way and the heavy trunk fell down, propelled up by the liana Spike reached the trunk of a new Tree one much more thickness that was by enzyme of the crown of all the previous trees.

This was the largest and oldest Tree in the forest, Spike deduced that it could be more than 3,000 years old, being by enzyme of all the trees he could see the Green Sea behind him and the terrain, just a few steps away. Passing the vegetative wall of trees covered by vines was a small stone path that led to a rear entrance to the grounds, on one side of this path near the Creeper but under the trunk on which Spike perched was a mountain of leaves.

Spike looked down and smiled at the mound.

"Going back in his footsteps" Here we go again, just a little bit of Faith.

He ran to the end of the Trunk, dropping down.

He could feel the wind hitting his body and stunning his ears, his eyes saw how he fell at great speed, ¿would that mountain of leaves really save him?.

But when he was about to reach the Mound, from his back two violet wings came out that began to stop the speed of his fall, when he reached the mountain he fell with the same speed as if he had thrown himself from a branch a few meters away Tall.

Spike came out of the mountain shaking the Leaves on his body and finally shook the leaves from his wings but there were some irregularities with them the inner green membrane of his wings were cut as if they were shattered pirate sails.

What Yusuf said worked. "looking at his wings" Still good for planning.

Once the leaves are removed from her body, she takes the path back to her home jogging.

Spike opened the back door and walked through the grass while the beautiful sun illuminated the terrain, thanks to his exercises climbing trees just a few minutes ago, Spike's body still boiled a little more, the sweat on his body ran everywhere, the dragon walked directly to the pool while some of the pets of the place came to greet him, three dogs, a cat, two foxes and an eagle.

He got to the pool and took off his clothes, first some brown sandals, then long black pants with blue stripes on the sides and a gray T-shirt with the part of the back cut off revealing Spike's worked back and his shattered wings, the neck part and the waist of the shirt were linked thanks to cords attached to holes in the fabric, leaving his clothes aside Spike had a muscular and toned body, almost identical to that of a Minotaur.

Spike took a dip and plunged deep into the pool, letting the cold water rejuvenate his body and take away his fatigue.

He stayed in the deep for up to 30 seconds, while outside someone with a cane waited for him outside.

When he returned to the surface, he found his mentor and friend Yusuf Diam, a 75-year-old Griffin with black fur and red mane, wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt with flower and petal patterns, espadrilles and trousers. old red.

I see you started your training early, looking at your student.

Haaaaaaaa "" replied Spike, removing the water from his face "", I started the training at 9:00 and for 1 hour I went out to run the 100kms.

I see that your training has improved, 3 years ago doing this training took you a full day, "" Yusuf spoke looking at the outskirts and at the building "" now only a few hours.

Thank you but I am not going to take the day off, he said floating on the surface.

First let's eat and then you can train as much as you want, reproach Yusuf turning around.

Sounds good to me, diving again.

When you finish come to eat we have to talk about your mission in Los Pegasus, the headquarters sent a message.

It didn't take long for Spike to finish cooling down and he got out of the water, put on some field clothes, black espadrilles, dark blue shorts that reached his thighs that highlighted his butt although he did not know it, plus a shirt short sleeve of an orange color and a brown cloth vest and on his head a blue beret, Spike did not know or did not know the relationship he had with a certain Cowgirl.

I enter the beautiful old-looking house and walk to the living room to which it connected where there was a circular wooden table with a tablecloth of yellow and orange squares drawings, plates, glasses and cutlery.

There was the delicious stew that Yusuf prepared for him every Wednesday, rabbit meat seasoned with spices and accompanied by vegetables and Rice plus a small portion of sugary Diamonds, if this did not fill you up you could still enjoy the noodle soup of his home companion.

When he got here Spike flatly refused to eat meat from other animals due to a certain girl that he remembered or rather that he did not want to remember but after 4 days living together starting with his hellish training he could not resist much more hunger and ended up thirsting.

The dinner passed with relative calm and silence, the only thing that was heard besides the chewing was the sound of a Radio program that Yusuf always listened to without fail, While they ate Yusuf spoke after swallowing the food in his beak.

The headquarters asked me to talk to you, about your deployment in Las Pegasus, as a cadet with the other murderers.

Hearing this news, the speech bubble heading for Spike's jaws stopped.

¿Has the guild already spoken?.

Correct, "" answered Yusuf putting his cutlery aside "" and as you may have imagined, due to his Great Performance, Skill and Knowledge, Mr. FoxTrop is more likely to be promoted from Cadet to Assassin.

I'm not really surprised Foxtrop is someone incredible, "" Spike roared nodding "I'm sure that of the Assassins of this generation he will be the most prominent.

Afirmative boy, "" Yusuf affirmed crossing his arms "He has already been accepted as an Assassin and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted as an Honorary Assassin, as for you, boy due to your Development, Ability and Undertaking with the mission, the Great Masters Assassins have assisted in granting you the Assassin mantle.

These words were like a hammer to the back of Spike's neck, he only limited himself to sighing crossing his arms as he leaned against the back of the chair.

! I suppose I still have to continue with my training! If you allow me, teacher, I think I lost my appetite, I will go to train for the Rest of the day, let me know when the Guild requires more cadets in other missions.

Spike pushed the chair away from him and walked towards a hallway of the house, however Yusuf stood up from the table next to his cane.

Boy! ... "" at the call of his teacher Spike stopped in his tracks and looked at him over his shoulder "" Maybe you have not understood my words, these things should not enter one ear and leave the other, from today you have become a member of the Assassins.

Hearing this, Spike's eyes and mouth were open, aralized volt seeing his Master in surprise.

¡¿That means?!.

Yusuf walked to the hallway where Spike was about to leave, both Dragon and Gryphon kept the same course.

Your first mission awaits Boy, you will travel this Friday, However every warrior needs an Adequate Armament, come with me I have a gift for you Boy.

They walked down the corridor until they stopped in front of one of the torches in the corridor (exactly the doseava) he took the torch and removed it from its place revealing a symbol in the shape of an inverted V, Yusuf's left hand had a ring with a similar symbol On his index finger he brought his ring and inserted it into the V and turned his hand, the wall in front of them plunged into the Interior and disappeared.

Now instead of a wall there was a corridor that led to a hidden basement which was connected through stairs, both the Dragon and the Gryphon went down to the basement.

When arriving down the basement was illuminated by torch light, there was a warm atmosphere, the interior was almost the same diameter as long and wide as the mansion, this place was divided into two zones on one side was a huge library, with dozens of books on each shelf, without just a certain person seeing that Library, their eyes would shine with a glare hungry for knowledge, after all the shelves touched from floor to ceiling with books that even by Spike's experience had to be taken with pinsas to read them of how old they were, but this library was not only limited to books but files, texts, writings or manuscripts, biographies and even maps of the whole world and cities were found in this gold mine.

And on the other hand, the next area was a place with a style identical to that of a Gym, with some weights, dumbbells and bars, the weight that all these copies carried were large hollow bricks filled with seed that clung to the Bars at each end . On the other hand, it was even a clean area that was more appropriate for aerobic exercises, but it had several battlements in the corners that contained in their entirety, wooden weapons, swords, axes, etc., etc. Any weapon capable of representing a threat to a being. I live had a replica there and of course some mannequins distributed by the area made with straw and wheat showing signs of use.

The first days of his training Yusuf made it clear to Spike that his muscles were going to be noticeable but not toned, his body had to find the balance between his muscular strength and his agility, the knowledge and physical training were carried out down there and his training aerobic and / or parkour would be carried out outside the place. Of course Spike's lazy attitude didn't help at all, so the challenge was mutual to both Spike for trying and Yusuf for making him try.

However, they did not enter either of these two places, they walked to the back of the room, between both sectors, there was a wall but in it the same pattern as Yusuf's ring and torch was presented.

I inserted the ring and the wall disappeared, revealing another mysterious sector, this was small, almost the same size as a room, there was a small chest, next to a bed and a writing table, Yusuf was the only one who entered that room crouching in front of the chest.

Now that you belong to the creed it will no longer be necessary for you to be sent on missions as a cadet, now you can take orders or missions on your own and I will take care of giving you your First Mission as a Spike Assassin.

Yusuf inserted the ring in the slot and the chest was opened, Yusuf checked its interior and extracted from it a tunic along with a white cloth rolled into an object, a belt, a weapon holster and 2 pocket compartments, along with a wristband and a black bag of unknown content, all these objects I leave posing on the bed.

Being an Assassin and belonging to the Creed, you will need an armament I accord to your body in the same way a tunic at your level, from the first moment I take you as a student I decided that you would inherit this tunic, it will not be necessary for you to use the tunic again that gave you the creed, this from now on belongs to you.

Spike looked at the tunic on the bed, this was a recognizable White Color but with some Brown and Orange details especially on the shoulders and elbows as well as the height, the part of the legs up to the knees was an acrid blue and the calves were white and brown again, the hood as expected had its characteristic peak, the shoes were pointed burgundy with brown fabric, in addition to this, on it were the shoulder pads and a small silver metal breastplate the size of the breastplate. to cover the heart area.

However, even if it is a waste, "" taking the card among the objects "" you will not be able to fully exploit your skills with the sword, so you will be given other weapons for your choice with which you will have to familiarize yourself, as the Assassins will know we live in the shadows protecting peace hidden from people's eyes and as such a bit of discretion is necessary on your arrival.

Still Yusuf leaned close to Spike's ear and whispered with a smile.

You are still in every decision to buy one or take it away. That is in your hands ... Now! These Dragon are the weapons that the Assassins Guild and every Assassin must possess and to dominate.

Yusuf took the tip of the cloth and rebelled what was inside, it was a dagger, both the edge and handle of the Dagger was of a silver color, that handle, looking at it closely, represented an Eagle, Yusuf took it in his hands.

This is the dagger that my grandfather inherited that was inherited from my father and then to me, not having a blood descent, this weapon that has lived for generations is now passed on to you.

Spike held the weapon with his hand, it was heavy but not as heavy as a sword, it was flexible and fast, then Yusuf caught his attention again by taking the black bag in his hand.

Being Assassins and training to face them, it does not mean that we cannot enter situations that threaten our lives, these have been our most important means of escape for generations.

From the inside of the bag I take out three fragile-looking balls of a gray color and a wick at the tip.

That is your best way of escape "" keeping them in the bag and giving them to Spike "" and finally the weapon that has accompanied the Assassins and has brought down millions of them, the legendary Weapon of every Assassin Spike is now yours.

In front of Spike were two brown and orange wristbands identical to his tunic, these normal and simple accessories contained hidden in the lower part that weapon that belonged to the Assassins, the Hidden Blade!.

Thank you very much Master, "" I thank Spike bowing to his master "" It is an honor for me to be accepted by the Order, I will abide by the order without question.

And I appreciate your dedication to our ideals, "" opening the letter and leaving it on the table "" to the place where you will go for a long time in their sights, they moved their chips a long time ago and caused enormous damage. that wrapped you inside, they let their machine work hidden from view of all while they hid behind false smiles, we never saw a headquarters necessary for that havoc or interfere, years later our enormous mistake was demonstrated, Spike you will be sent here to destroy those who long ago destroyed you.

Hearing this, Spike's eyes widened and he looked down into Yusuf's eyes.

¡Master!, Spike replied with a surprised face.

Yusuf's eyes did not take their gaze away from Spike as he pulled out a red match from a small box that he placed on the heat of a candle.

Those who 4 years ago poisoned Princess Celestia, murdered Luna and falsely harassed you and the Dragons have returned to Ponyville and now seek to take control of Equestria and the elements of harmony through an ancient and dangerous artifact that took the life of Luna and now she will do the same with Twilight.

!Master¡, Spike interrupted again with sweat on his face and a stupid look in his eyes.

Spike, "" sealing the Letter with red wax "" gives it to accepted my request that your first shipment is to eliminate those who call themselves Templars and maintain order in Equestria, we cannot let them have control of such powers , You and the other Assassins in Equestria will be in charge of this Task, at a time when they are crushed to our Order, only you and those hidden in the shadow of Equestria, carry the weight of this mission, you understand the weight that is on your shoulders.

Spike's face was sweating, so long ago that he had wanted this, the times when he felt prepared to return and take revenge on them or better said on them and now his body did not stop shaking, his ideals and intentions already They were not the same as 4 years ago and his revenge despite knowing who secretly pulled the strings, that resentment towards those who turned their back on him was returning.

Holding on to this resentment, along with his unwavering will, to Destroy those who unjustly dragged him down, his altered and nervous face calmed down, he took a deep breath and sighed, as his mind cleared.

!Yes Teacher¡, I accept Spike opening his eyes.
