my theory. spike feels left out from kowing who he is, he's about the same age as the cutie crusaders who are doing the same thing. the only thing is, a pony knows who they are based on a mark, but how does a dragon know whohe is? so he joins the herd heading (who knows where) and meets up with the trio of older dragons. he tries to prove he's like them by acting as they do. but along the way they start acting in ways he doesn't, like they're mean to ponies or stomp around breaking stuff. for the sake of those the trio is hurting, spike speaks up/defends/ helps out the victum. the trio mocks him for 'not being a real dragon' only to have spike realize he knows who he is, and it isn't who the trio think he should be.

then he may meet other dragons in the herd who think the same as he does, maybe even the leader of the herd shows his respect and even gives him a token, creating a physical cutie mark for spike. he then returns to ponyville and celebrates his return with his friends and writes his letter to the princess.
