" Hurry Spike hide under that table " Scootaloo whisper-shouted.

 Just as he did Sweetie Belle draped a big blanket over it and Apple Bloom answer the door

 " Howdy Twilight ! What brings you here . " Apple bloom said .

 " I was wondering if Spike was here . " Twilight said . 

" Nope ," said Scootaloo.

 "Sweetie belle you better be telling the truth, " Rarity said. 

" He's not here ," Sweetie Belle said. 

Twilight and Rarity left and the girls signal for Spike to come out.

 " Phew close one there girls , " he smiled.

 " So what do we do now ? " Scootaloo asked. 

" I don't know yet but , I'm sure that they would be back for me ," Spike said. 

The trio led Spike down to Sweet Apple Acres to find somewhere to hide him . They found a place in the barn. " Ya can fit in this box can't ya Spahk ?" Apple Bloom asked him.

 " I think I can but, wouldn't I get lonely in this .. Dark ... Scary ... Barn ?" He gulped. 

" We can take turns checking on you ,"Sweetie Belle said. 

" Yeah ! I'll go first ," Scootaloo said shoving him in the box , " see you in a little while Spike !

 ------couple of hours later-------

 " Where are they ? " he thought .  The box lid was suddenly opened.

 " Sorry Spike ,Rarity and Twilight came back to see if you were around," Scootaloo said," Well I got to go, Bye! "

Scootaloo waved at him while closing the lid back. 

------ that night----

 Spike was scared . He heard hoof steps toward the box and a familiar voice. " Now where did I put mah apple sauce ? " said Granny Smith. 

Spike gulped " Please Don't look in this box , "he prayed. 

" Hey Granny Smith ! Ah found it in the bathtub!" Apple Bloom shouted . 

He heard Granny Smith leave with Apple Bloom and the apple sauce. " No... AB, please don't leave me here ... Alone."He said quietly. 

He sighed and fell asleep.

 ---- at the castle -----

  " Where can he be , he ran away I-I-I want him back NOW !"Twilight cried to Rarity.

 " Tw-Twilight I-I-I'm sorry," Rarity said . 

" My assistant hates me and now he will never come back .... " Twilight sighed as tears fell from her eyes.
