The True Lifesaver

Featuring:

Applejack

Twilight Sparkle

Spike

It starts a while after Applejack saves Spike, she refuses to take Spike's offer to help her with stuff. Spike pleads her to do so since it's part of the Dragon Code, but Applejack says that Spike already owes that to somepony else. She reminds him of someone who looked after him and was always there for him, and that he can call that pony not just a family, but also home. Spike figures out it's Twilight Sparkle that Applejack is talking about and decides that she's right and goes to talk with Twilight.

Spike goes to Twilight's house and asks her if she has a minute. Twilight says she does and asks what Spike has to say. But before Spike can talk, he begins to cry as he runs over to Twilight and hugs her. Twilight hugs him with one of her hooves and asks what's wrong, and Spike responds that he's so glad he has her. Twilight is tearfully touched, as she wraps both of her hooves around Spike as they embrace each other.
