As Griffy ran with Spike in his teeth, Spike constantly complained about being carried like a Cat or Dog cub (since Griffy was holding Spike by the scruff of his neck).
The two finally stopped to relax underneath a very large Sycamore Tree.
"I wish I was out of this situation already", complained Griffy, "I, Griffalonius Von Masterton III, should not be treated like a Pony, I'm a Griffin for Celestia's sake!"
After that strange exclamaition, the two just sat under that Tree.

"I'm hungry", mummbled Spike, "In fact, I don't feel like eating gem stones for once. I, for some reason, have a craving for fresh meat"
"Sounds to me like you are starting to mature", stated Griffy.
So then, Griffy dug up some big, long Earthworms with his hooves and gave them to Spike.
"Here you go Spike", said Griffy, "Your first taste of the actual Dragon diet"
As Spike ate the Worms voraciously, he could not help but enjoy himself, for he was feeling his true Mountain Dragon instinct begining to emerge, the erge to eat something alive that is smaller than you and quite defenseless.

Griffy started reach for some Worms for himself, but he felt strangely repelled away.
"Why can't I manage to eat other Animals", he wondered to himself. That's when he relized that his old Griffin traits were starting to go away and were slowly being replaced by Pony traits. He could not believe what was coming over him as he decided to graze on the Grass in the area.
