7th Sapphire Cupcake: [Video | Goldenrod]

[The feed clicks on to Spike looking really worried, and he's surrounded by Rarity's pokemon.]

Has anypony seen Rarity? She's really pretty, with purple hair, and talks about fashion a lot.

We're staying at Goldenrod Inn together, but I haven't seen her in a couple days, and I've checked all her favourite stores. If you see her...uh...well...I guess that's okay then...tell her Spike's been looking after her pokemon...

[Screened to Pony Cast only]

Twilight? Rainbow Dash? Anypony? I can't find Rarity anywhere. You guys haven't seen her, have you? I haven't seen her since she last went shopping.

[Spike looks like he's about to start crying. He's all alone in a big city in a weird world, and he doesn't know why Rarity's pokemon are crowding around him and looking so sad. He feels really alone right now.]

You..don't think she went home, do you?

Um...

[Spike looks around his room. Even though he'd been here for a while, he hadn't really bought a lot of stuff. Everything he had still fit into the backpack.]

Well, it won't take long for me to get my stuff.

Hang on a second.

[Spike opens up the connecting door to Rarity's room, and turns the gear so that Rainbow Dash can see. There is stuff EVERYWHERE. Rainbow Dash would be hard pressed to find a surface that wasn't covered in clothes, material, sewing equipment, work notes, drawings etc..]

...this could take a while.

[Spike sighs sadly. He really doesn't want to be packing Rarity's things away, still trying to accept that she's gone.]

I could maybe do it all in an hour? How long will it take you to fly here?

(Rainbow stares at the screen in disbelief at what Rarity had bought...and facepalmed. Again and again for quite a while.)

...You think?!

Ahh, probably less than that if I take Spitfire; she's my Dragonite. Might be an hour or so if I take one of my other Flyers here, but...I'll give you one day. Think that'll be enough time to get Rarity's stuff together?

[Spike shrugs helplessly, looking around Rarity's room. She certainly had done a lot of shopping in the past couple months. He sighed sadly. This wasn't how it was supposed to go! He'd had a great time here with Rarity while Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie had gone to get badges. What was he going to do now?]

Yeah...I guess that's okay. What time do you think you'll get here, and where do you want me to meet you?

[Spike wonders if he needs to make a list as he pets Rarity's Petilil, who was taking the loss pretty hard.]

(Rainbow's expression at Spike's question is mixed with disbelief and...nope, just disbelief. She's not sure what time she'll get there; she usually tries to sleep in!)

Eh, probably before lunch. How about in front of the Pokemon Center? Should be big enough for Pokemon to pick up her stuff.

...Wait, isn't her stuff mobile?

[Spike's not sure why Rainbow Dash is giving him that expression. Maybe she was still shocked by the sheer amount of stuff Rarity had.]

Yeah that should be okay. There's a courtyard area there. I can put all her stuff out there so that it's easier to get it all.

[Spike raises an eyebrow at Rainbow Dash.]

...well...yes...but this is Rarity we're talking about. Her version of mobile is...yeah.

Remember the camping trip you guys went on with the crusaders?

[Yeah. He'd heard all about that. Poor Sweetiebelle.]

Sweet! I'll look for the courtyard when I fly in on Spitfire.

(She would, but she hasn't experienced it yet; only bits and pieces from what Twilight told her, but...she can fathom a guess. Just because it's Rarity they're talking about.)

Ha, good thing I have really strong Pokemon. Twilight too.

Okay, it should be pretty easy to spot from the sky. I'll be waiting with all the stuff.

[A beat]

Twilight's coming too?

Sweet! Try not to forget any awesome stuff she might've bought me.

(A beat.)

Eheh, no; I might see about borrowing some of her Pokemon, though.

[That made Spike smile a little.]

There's probably a rainbow coloured travel outfit in here somewhere, knowing her.

[Spike looks a little wary.]

It's not the other not as great Spike is it?

[Spike knew that Twilight hadn't replaced him, and that Spike the Dragonite was actually really nice...but still. He didn't really want to be rescued by his equivalent. That was kind of rubbing salt in the wound.]

(That brightens Rainbow's spirits a lot; something cool Rarity bought for her! She's gonna check it out first chance she gets.)

Really? Awesome~!

(She laughs lightly and shakes her head. No way would she consider another Dragonite to rescue Spike that wasn't named Spitfire!)

Hehehe, nope! Promise it won't be the other Dragonite.

[Spike laughs at Rainbow Dash's enthusiasm.]

Probably. I know she said she was going to work on travel outfits, but I have no idea if she finished them, or even had a chance to start them...

[Spike breathes a sigh of relief.]

Awesome. I mean, uh, you know. It's not that I don't like him or anything...

[Spike sighs as he looks around.]

I guess I should start sorting through everything. I guess I'll see you tomorrow Rainbow Dash.

[He pauses for a second and then says in a rush]

Be careful, okay? [Read: Please don't disappear too...]

Yeah, I checked in on her now and then; she seemed real busy with making outfits and stuff.

(She laughs and nods, understanding what he's going through.)

It's cool, Spike. Take your time and get to know him when you're ready. Besides, he's Spike 2 not Spike 1!

(She nods briefly while giving him a thumbs up.)

Gotcha! You too, little guy. (She gets it; she's not going anywhere...)
