It's already a few days have passed, until today Principal Celestia has announce that they will go to Camp Everfree again for tomorrow after they have enough money to do another class field trip. After school day at home, Twilight packed up her stuff and Spike's stuff in the bags to get ready to camping at Camp Everfree, including her shotgun that now she smuggled through her bags and her custom sidearm. After that, she sat down at the table and starts to working on the paperwork in the laptop given by Colonel Marshall. Once she finished the last paperwork, she informed Colonel via Online Message and shut down her laptop. Today, she achieved around $300 for the temporary desk job. She then sat down and then lay down on the sofa, felt a little tired and had a little headache.

Few seconds later, her phone rang from in her pocket of her pants. To her surprise, it was the Colonel himself who called her. She answered the phone and put it on her right ear whilst sat down on the sofa.

"Hey, Twilight. How are you doing?"

"Doing fine, sir. Why did you call me?"

"Well, I just want to tell you that I thank you to you for helping me with these blasted paperworks," he said as he looked at the paperworks on the table that has been wrote by Twilight.

Twilight then smiled. "Just doing my job, sir."

"So, what you're doing now back at home, Corporal?"

"I'll be heading to Camp Everfree for a week and a day, I can't be disturbed on those days for a while."

"Don't worry, we won't."

"By the way, how's my squad doing?"

"Still as the same, Corporal. They still doing their tour of duty out there."

"Good to hear that, and Lt. Water?"

"She'll be back home here in a week."

Twilight then slightly chuckled. "She'll be back here and have a party, right."

"You know there's a rule about no party here."

"I know."

"But then when I get out of here, I'm going to have a good time in a party."

Both them laughed on his joke.

Twilight shook her head for his joke. "Right, right."

"How's the raid with the police forces a few days ago?"

Twilight quickly turned frown. "At first didn't went well, but then starting to get better when in the raid."

"So what did they say about you after the raid?"

"They say that I am truly a rare soldier to find."

Colonel chuckled and laugh, while Twilight laughed a little. "Sure you are a rare soldier to find, even you able to get away with you hairs still attached."

"Well, at least you told me that my hair doesn't need to be cut anymore after I did the favors to you," Twilight smiled sheepishly at her own comment.

Colonel paused for a moment with a hum, reminded of something. "By the way, I want to asked you something?"

"What is it?"

"I heard around this city that there's the Boogeywoman in this city, killed 5 robbers with a pencil and saved everyone in the restaurant, was it you? Well since you're the only one who got the nickname Boogeywoman back there."

Twilight can say nothing but to stay quiet.

"Oh no good, it was really you all along?"

Twilight sighed before regretly answers. "Yes, sir. I did that."

Colonel shook his head in upset and leaned his back to the chair in amazed. "Your friends knew this?"

"Only a few, they promised to keep my secret, including the principals."

Colonel only bit his own lip and licked it, not sure what to say next. "You have to tell them about it."

"I'm not so sure about it, Colonel. But I promise I'll tell them if the time is right."

Colonel did responded to her with a sigh. "I hope going to the camp can calm down your nerves."

"I don't know, I just felt like the monster back there," Twilight replied with a sorrowful tone.

"Corporal, you're not a monster," Colonel said, trying to convince her to stay calm. "What you did that time was very necessary, alright? It's not your fault to go out there alone like that."

"You do know I did that for revenge and I use magic to get him, right?" Twilight deadpanned him.

Colonel opened his mouth, but then shut it after she said that. It was about 15 seconds of silence when Colonel able to talk again. "I know, Twilight, but that doesn't mean you are a monster. You still have a heart, maybe me or anyone else can't see that. But you still have a heart somewhere inside of you, maybe very small but it's still there. You're not a monster, believe me that, don't feel guilt about it."

Twilight felt sad about it, she only let out a sigh and said. "I'll try."

"Good," Colonel said as he nodded. "Try to not to lose faith, alright?"

"Alright," Twilight responded with a nod.

"You are a soldier, Twilight," Colonel said. "It is gonna took a while for you to adjust to the civilian life again. You understand that?"

"Yes, sir. I understand," Twilight respond in consent and sincere.

Then someone entered Colonel's office. The soldier who entered the office only tell him something important.

"Sir, General Hilcom wants to talk with you," the soldier said and received a nod from the Colonel who was still on the phone before he left the office.

"Alright, I need to attend some important business. Goodbye, Corporal."

"Goodbye, Colonel," with that Twilight closed the call and leaned her back to the sofa.

She noticed that it was already rainy outside after she looked at the windows. Spike the dog then hopped on the sofa. But then Spike jumped down to the floor again after Twilight decided to lay down on the sofa, facing forward. Spike then hopped again and lay down his belly in front of Twilight's chest. She then rubbed her dog's back.

"Is that the Colonel again?" Spike asked.

"Yep," Twilight replied with a casual tone. "He just want to talk with me, nothing else than that."

"Okay then," Spike said in glad. "So we're going to Camp Everfree again?"

"Sure we are, Spike."

09:00 AM, the next day

Twilight was wearing blue jeans and dark green-brownish long sleeve T shirt that day. Twilight gathered up with the students near the bus and everyone including her putted their bags in the trunks of the bus. Principal Celestia tell everyone to line up and and announced about how greatful they are that they can go back camping in Everfree again. 10 minutes later, everyone piled up in the bus and embark their trip to Camp Everfree again. Her 6 mane friends sat on the very back of the bus with the Dazzlings, Spike the dog and Juniper, while Twilight decided to sat next to Vinyl and the Principals sat at the very front of the bus. Sunset was talking with Adagio and the others on the back.

"So, what do you think about the slumber party back at Pinkie's?" Sunset asked to them Dazzlings.

"Fun for sure!" Adagio commented in happy spirit. "It's been a while we didn't have that party."

"Daaah, that's true," Aria said in ugly way of speaking.

"It it really fun to be honest," Spike commented, Twilight did came to Pinkie''s party with Spike that time.

"Oh! And then, and then we will have marshmallow party!" Pinkie shouted in enthusiasm.

"Pinkie, ah' don't think a good idea," Applejack said. "Do you remember the last time you did that?"

A few days ago she has a small party only for her friends and the Dazzlings. That time she throws the marshmallows around the party and it magically explodes, ruining the party. Everything that was left in the ruined party was balloons and unexploded confetti, tables and room were kinda destroyed.

"Oh, I pull my words then," Pinkie said quickly after AJ reminded her.

"Good then," Juniper commented in relieve. "I just hate what happened when it went explode."

"Same here," Dash said as she folded her hands on Sonata's back seat.

"Rarity, you're not bringing a lot of bags for fashion stuff aren't you?" Fluttershy asked at Rarity.

"Darling, of course I bring a lot of bags for my fashion business, because why not?" her respond clearly upset her friends, especially when carrying her things around.

"You're really make things harder you know that?" Dash commented at her, achieve some agreements of nods from the Dazzlings, Sunset, and AJ.

"Ah, come one, it's not that heavy," Rarity said with a flirt tone.

"Like ya' ever carried a lot in one shot before," AJ commented, slightly insulted Rarity since they know who's stronger around here and everyone laughed.

"Hey!" Rarity the fist-nudged AJ's shoulder. "Don't talk to me like that!"

"Easy, Sugarcube," Applejack said with a smile.

While they were talking back there, Twilight was sat in silence next to Vinyl who is still listening to her DJ music. Twilight was drawing a picture of someone with pencil on her book on her thighs. She was drawing a picture of Dolker from her memory, but in his casual clothes. When she's still drawing, Sunset noticed her drew something on her book after she looked forward. She can't see what is Twilight drawing except literally seeing her doing that.

"Huh," Sunset said. "It's been awhile seeing her draw something."

"Probably she wants to help me with the fashion," Rarity said, but they don't think that's what she draw.

"I don't think Twilight care about that for now," Sunset said in doubt. "She looks like been sticking to herself."

"At least she's still our friend," Sonata said.

"What is she drawing anyway?" Applejack asked as she folded her arms.

"You know what? Let me take a look," Dash said as she is about to get off her seat, but then Fluttershy stopped her.

"I don't think that's a good idea." Adagio, Sunset, Applejack, and Pinkie nodded in agreement of Shy's thinking.

"Look, Shy," Dash replied back. "I'm just trying to look on what she's doing alright? Not going to disturbed her." Fluttershy then nodded at her in glad.

Rainbow then tried to walked forward, approaching Twilight from behind. As Dash about to see the drawing from behind, Twilight's instinct got kicked in and quickly closed her book. Dash stopped in track while Twilight wasn't bothering to look behind.

"Leave me alone," Twilight threatened.

"But I-" Dash then got cut-off by Twilight quickly.

"Leave me alone, last warning," She threatened again, much more in angry tone, it gained Vinyl attention.

Rainbow felt deadpanned by her threat, but then she slowly stepped back. "Ok..."

Rainbow then walked back to her seat on the back of the bus and sat down next to Fluttershy. "So how did it go?"

"She somehow know I was behind her," Dash replied in wonder. "I didn't get a good look on the drawing in time."

"And she told you leave her alone?" Spike asked.

"With a threat," Rainbow added, everyone surprised with that. "I don't understand, we're her friends, why she would do that to us?"

"It must be something that disturbed her thoughs," Applejack suggested. "I suggest we leave her alone for now."

After Dash get back to her seat, Twilight opened her book again and continue her drawing. Vinyl was still staring at her after that threat. Twilight know Vinyl was staring at her in puzzled. But when Vinyl noticed her drawings, she asked Twilight.

"Who's that?" Vinyl asked.

"None of your concern," Twilight replied in cold.

"Why?" Vinyl asked again, only receive a cold stare from Twilight in silent as she stopped drawing. "O..okay."

Vinyl quickly get back to listen her music and text something on her phone, Twilight then continued her drawing. After a little while of silence, she finished her drawing and wrote the name Dolker on the very bottom of the page on the right and closed the book. Her drawing was very perfect that time and it very matches Dolker appearance. She then decided to listen a song. But then, since she doesn't want to hear any song from her phone, she asked Vinyl for that.

"Vinyl?" she called.

"Yeah?" Vinyl responded.

"Do you have a song that-?" Twilight asked.

"I do have a lot of songs for sure, I-" but then Twilight cut her off.

"I'm not done talking yet."

"Oh..." Vinyl then clears her throat. "What did you want to say again?"

"Do you have a song?" Twilight asked. "Something, Country song?"

Though Vinyl is a DJ, but it doesn't mean she only know the songs she had for her DJ stuff. "I have some actually. Well, I have a favorite Country Song here. It's called 'God's Gonna Cut You Down'."

Twilight then smiled. "That's also my favorite, Johnny Cash?"

"Yep, he's my favorite for sure," Vinyl smiled. "May God bless him in heaven."

"Give me that," Twilight then took her another music player along with the earphone. She put the earphone on her ears and played the song.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IStlBOX9F4o

With that, she's singing on the way to Everfree Camp with her eyes closed and gained everyone's attention in the bus, including the principals and her Wondercolts friends and Dazzlings and her dog. For the first time they heard she's singing that song.

(Though, you had to imagine that Twilight is singing that whilst the song sings as well.)

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John go do My will!"

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

Later, they reached the Camp and unpacked their stuffs from the trunks of the bus. Rarity as per usual, brings a lot of bags to the camp, while the others are having a big one bag, but Twilight brings two bags. When she was questioned by Sunset and Applejack what's in it, she only replied to them with 'clothes and stuff'. Clearly that was said half-true by Applejack after Twilight went away to see Timber and Gloriossa.

"She's bringing something else with her," Applejack said to Sunset with suspicion.

"The question is, what is she bringing around?" Sunset asked themselves.

"Hey girls!" Dash shouted from a distance with Fluttershy, Rarity, and Pinkie, they then walked over to them. "Can't believe that's the first time she sang something like that."

"Yeah, for the first time I heard she songs a country song," Applejack then putted both hands on her hips. "That's mah' favorite song, though."

"The last time we ever know she never quite fond about country songs," Pinkie said quickly with the fact. "Now, looks like she's getting to like it."

"Or she's already like it many days ago," Rarity added. "But I don't think that would be the point on what is she hiding from us."

"I agree," Fluttershy said. "Shouldn't we talked to Timber and Daisy about it?"

"Later, she told me that she will be talking with both of them now," Sunset answered with a shook.

They then saw Vinyl was walking towards the octagon shelter with Octavia and Tennis, they then got called by Rainbow. "Hey, guys! Can we talk with you for a minute?"

The three responded to the call and walked over to them. "Yeah, what's the problem?" Octavia asked.

"Vinyl, you were sitting next to Twilight, right?" Sunset asked, then she received a nod from her.

"Do ya' know what was she drawing?" Applejack asked with her left eye squinted.

"She was drawing a picture of someone," Vinyl answered. "A handsome man in a casual shirt."

They began interested with this 'handsome man', Tennis and Octavia were kinda surprised for that. "Do you know what was he look like?" Dash asked.

"I can say his face is handsome than Flash and Timber," Vinyl said. "But there is a long scar on his left side of his neck."

"A scar?" Fluttershy gasped. "Is there anything else than that?"

"Nothing else but he has a medium size body and somehow looks sturdy, after that she finished drawing and closed her book," Vinyl replied with a shook. "After that she asked me if I have any country song then I gave it to her."

"You know his name?" Sunset asked again.

"Nope, I didn't asked his name after she gave me a threatening stare," Vinyl replied whilst rubbing her neck. "She did threatened you right, Dash?"

"Yeah," Dash answered with a shrug.

"Then I suggest to not bother her with that," Tennis said. "You know what happened to me the last time I did that."

"But we will try to find out what she's hiding no matter what," Rarity said with a sure tone.

"I hope so," Vinyl agreed.

"By the way, did you see where Juniper and The Dazzlings gone?" Pinkie asked at them.

"They were heading to the river, want to see what does it look like."

"Ok, we want to talk to them for awhile."

Twilight was talking with Timber and Daisy at the octagon shelter about how's the day going and what news in town. They did also heard the news about The Boogeywoman and the raid made by the law enforcements, and apparently with the help of an unknown soldier (The police didn't tell the soldier's name to the public). And last but not least, a news about a robber killed by an unknown shooter at CHS. After a little while, Flash joined up with them.

"Hey there, Flash," Timber greeted. "How's your day?"

"Very great!" Flash replied with a cheer tone. "It's good that we can go back here."

"Same as me," Twilight said with a smile. "At last I got some relieve."

"Yeah you sure is," Daisy added with a smile.

But then somehow, Twilight turned to a frown one. It worries both Timber and Daisy. "Is everything alright, Twi?" Timber asked in concern.

"I'm fine, Timber," Twilight replied with a sad tone. "I'm fine."

"You sure about it?" Daisy asked, still in concern.

"Yes..... I'm sure."

"Is there any drink around here?" Flash asked to Timber. "Because she seems to need one."

"It's in the shelter," Timber answered as he pointed his thumb to behind him.

"Thanks," Twilight then started to walked to the shelter. "I'll be back."

After she gone, Timber quickly stared at Flash with suspicion while Daisy only watching them both talking. "She's not cheating with you, didn't she?"

"No, Timber," Flash replied in honest. "We're just friends alright?" Flash then sighed and shook his head.

"Then why she's sad like that?" Daisy asked, helping Timber about the cheating problem.

"She told me it's still about her friend who died that time," Flash replied, earning some blank glare at him. "But still, she doesn't want to tell me about it."

"Oh, well....." Timber though for a moment for another question. "Did something bad happened to her?"

"To be precise," Flash corrected. "Something bad happened from her."

"W-wha-what do you mean?" Daisy asked in puzzled.

"She was gone angry and nearly beat up Tennis to faint," Flash answered, making them surprised with their jaw open.

"But, what?" Timber asked in shock. "Why did she do that?"

"I heard from Vice Principal Luna said that, she was kinda set off in rage after Tennis keep bothering her. Tennis got punched in the face many times by Twilight, a lot of bruises and wound on her face that time."

"Jeez," Timber gasped in shock. "It's okay if she can fight, but beating up a friend? That's not the Twilight I know."

"I agree," Daisy said in consent as she looked at Timber.

"Anything else wrong with her?" Timber asked at Flash.

"She, somehow much more friendly to me than the others, including her own Wondercolts team."

Timber wondered with that statement. "Why so?"

"Well, at first she asked me to house sit her house that time. When she came home after 6 weeks, she changed like that and cried. Didn't even tell me a single thing why or what's wrong, but then she asked me again to stay at her house, giving a reason that it was pretty late to go back to my house. After that, the funeral, and then, well, you know the rest. That was along time ago."

"I see," Timber replied as they both nodded in understood, though they didn't know that Flash was lying.

Flash then looked behind them. "It's Twilight."

both of them turned around and saw Twilight walked over them. "How you're doing now?"

"Much better to be honest," Twilight said in cold tone.

"Good," Timber said in glad. "Call your friends here, we want to talk to them about our activity here."

"Alright, I'll call them."

Twilight went off to call her friends, and Timber asked Flash again as they watched Twilight went off. "Do you think she'll be okay?"

"Yes, she'll be okay," Flash then looked over at Timber. "She can handle herself."

2 minutes later

Timber, Daisy, Vice Principal Luna, and Principal Celestia announce to the students about what are their activities in the camp. They did said that they will be doing a tour into the forests of Everfree. For the students they all scared if they are all lost in the forest, but for Twilight, it's really nothing for her since she has the skill for advance land navigation. They do make sure that none of them lost in the forest and they told them to stick close if they don't want to get lost. Twilight just acting very calm and not worried about it while the others were scared for knowing what's in the forest should be dangerous.

Sunset noticed that Twilight, who was next to her wasn't worry about the tour. "Why you look like not worry about the tour? You know it's dangerous out there."

Twilight only sighed and then folded her arms. "Actually, I'm really fine with that."

"Twilight, this is really not fine," Sunset replied quickly in irritating tone. "How do you even get out from the forest without get lost?"

Twilight looked at her in cold and said. "I have my own way." She then walked away from there, leaving Sunset behind.

"What?" she asked, particularly to herself in confused.

After the announcement, they all return to their activity. The Rainbooms were heading to the river to row boats with Derpy and Photo Shoot. Flash, Timber, and Daisy were having a conversation at the picnic table. The rest of the students were doing their activities at the tents, near forest, at the picnic tables, and at the Camp cafeteria. Twilight was with the Dazzlings and Juniper at the rock-climbing wall. Twilight was trying to climb the climbing wall.

"Are you sure you want to climb this wall?" Juniper asked in doubt along with the Dazzlings.

Twilight buckled the climbing rappel and looked at Juniper. "Sure I am. I'll be fine, trust me." Twilight then starts to climb the wall.

"That's a long way to go down for sure," Aria commented as they watched Twilight is climbing.

"At least there's a soft landing spot here," Adagio said as she kicks the mattresses at the bottom of the wall.

"I still scared about climbing that wall high," Sonata commented whilst looking at her Dazzlings friends and Juniper.

"Me too, Sonata," Juniper added, sharing her fear of heights.

When they decided to looked up again, they were very surprised to see that Twilight is already at the top of the climbing wall.

"How did she climbed that so fast?" Adagio asked to them while looked at Twilight in dumbfounded.

"I don't know," Sonata, Aria, and Juniper replied as they still dumbfounded and yet impressed.

"You guys got impress?" Twilight asked with a shout from above.

"Yeah, we impressed," Juniper shouted back at her with an answer.

"Alright, I'm going down now!" Twilight shouted, she then quickly descends down the wall with the rappel and brakes 3 times on the wall before landing on the mattresses.

"Do you always going that fast, Twilight?" Juniper asked in curious.

"Perhaps," Twilight replied as she unbuckle the rappel from around her waist. "Who's next?"

Then Twilight's phone suddenly rang, she then pulled it out and saw that was Lt. Water who called her. "Who's that?" Aria asked in wonder.

"Just a friend," Twilight then started to walk away from the. "Excuse me for a moment."

They don't know why she would be bother to walk away from them when she wanted to answer her phone, but then Adagio decided to catch up with Twilight. "I'll go to keep an eye on her."

They three then nodded in confirm before they continue their climbing activity whilst Adagio is catching up with Twilight. Twilight answered the phone after she was a little far from them and Adagio was already next to her. She put her phone on her right ear and Adagio did try to eavesdrop their conversation. Then Lt. Water greeted her by phone.

"Hiya, Twilight! How are you doing?"

"Doing fine, Water, you?" Twilight said back, and Adagio was a little misunderstood with her friend's name because they have a friend in CHS called Watermelody.

"Well, I got shot in the arm here after a mission," Catherine replied as she looked at her left wounded arm. "But I'm fine."

"Got shot in the arm?" Twilight asked in surprised, Adagio was also surprised with that. "What happened?"

"Well, actually it's just an accident," Katherine replied in a chuckled tone. "Remember Carl?"

"That guy that Ramirez was talking about?" Twilight asked back with an answer.

"Yep, guess what?" Lt. Water then laughed a little. "He was spinning his rifle around his arm until his rifle pulled the trigger by itself and shot my arm."

Twilight laughed in low voice, but Adagio did laughed in a moderate voice. "You know what people always say?"

"Shits happens."

They three laughed again in joy, then Twilight asked her. "So, what happened to Carl?"

"Sgt. Foley had to gave him another 2 KP at the COP," Water replied with a smile and a chuckle. "For 'unintended accident'." Clearly, she meant 'intended'.

"I see," Twilight said with a nod. "Hey, I heard from Col. Marshall said that you'll be back here in a week, that's right?"

"Yeah," Lt. Water said with a cheer tone. "It's good to be back home again soon, ain't that right, Boogeywoman?"

Twilight quickly frowned with that name, Adagio in other hand wasn't surprise with that name but it gave her little chills about it. "Can't we just stick to my name, Lieutenant?"

"Oh, sorry," Lt. Water said in apologize. "I didn't meant to-"

"It's okay," Twilight said quickly. "That's fine."

"Alright," Lt. Water then hummed. "What are you doing back there?"

"Oh well," Twilight then looked around her with Adagio. "I'm with my friends here do camping at Camp Everfree."

"Camp Everfree? That's my favorite place," Lt. Water said in surprised. "But I though Timber and Daisy had financial problems."

"Now they're not," Twilight said back with a convincing tone.

"Is there anything else you do back there?" Lt. Water asked again, wincing her eyes. "Not the bad ones I mean."

"Well, the law enforcement has asked for my help for a raid on the drug cartels," Twilight said, Adagio was very surprised to hear that until she glared at Twilight, she was the only one didn't hear that kind of news lately. "And they really appreciate my help."

"A soldier that help the police forces?" Lt. Water then chuckled. "Sounds fun for me."

"That's what you think though, not for me."

"Did they paid you?"

"Sure, they gave me $600 for the favor," Twilight's comment clearly made Katherine impressed.

"Damn, that was just for one day," Lt. Water commented, clearly want to get money just like that.

"By the way, how's my squad doing?" Twilight asked, Adagio didn't know that she has a squad of soldiers of her own.

"Doing well, but your bookworm buddy, Laner, got shot in the shoulder, twice," Lt. Water replied. "He had to rest for a couple of days before getting back to action, more than that they're still okay."

"What about Sgt. Foley?"

"Well, Still as the same as always."

"Briggs?"

"Oh, he's fine, but his goddamn Sherman tank got stuck in a pool of mud," that made the three of them laughed.

"Oh yeah, one last thing," Twilight then sighed. "How's Rendor doing?"

"Oh, well....." Lt. Water though for a few seconds to make the words. "Rendor did complained that he felt a little lonely without you to be honest."

Twilight felt sad to hear Rendor complained that. "Actually, I also felt lonely too. Not that I don't like my friends, but I felt comfortable to be with the fellow soldiers. Like we got our own brothers out there."

"I agree with that," Lt. Water said with consent nod, Adagio who's still next to Twilight does agree with that.

Twilight silent for a moment looking at the ground until she spoke. "We both having a good day aren't we?"

"Yeah, sure we are," Catherine replied, Catherine then looked behind her to see that there were some important business are going on. "Looks like they need me, I'll be heading off now."

"Ok, be careful out there sister," Twilight said hopefully.

"Don't worry. I'll be careful, goodbye, sister," Lt. Water then closed the phone call and walked back to the barrack.

Twilight then put back her phone in her pocket of her jeans and looked at Adagio, who was very satisfied to eavesdrop her conversation with Catherine.

"That wasn't Watermelody's sister, right?" Adagio asked, for confirming her misunderstood of the name.

"No, she wasn't," Twilight replied. "Her name is Lt. Water Catherine."

"Oh, that's make sense," Adagio said after confirming the name. "Who's Rendor?"

"A brother-in-arms of my mine," Twilight replied in a sad tone.

"You're okay?" Adagio asked in concern after she noticed her sad tone.

"I'm fine," Twilight replied, then looked at her eyes. "I'm just thinking about that funeral."

"Can you tell me who died?" Adagio asked, it was the same question as yesterday and a few days ago.

"No," Twilight replied with a shook. "No."

"I see, I won't ask again" Adagio understands her feelings. "Do you think you'll be fine for the whole week?"

"I don't know," Twilight then shrugged. "But I'll try."

Adagio only nodded at that statement. "So, we go back there?"

"Yeah, let's go."

As they slowly walked back to their friends at the climbing wall, Adagio kept up the conversation. "How do you feel after we are here?"

"Peaceful, but not very," Twilight replied. "Plus, I felt happy that there's no any bullets flying around."

Adagio decided to not imagine what did she say. "Right...."

"Did you already asked Flash about what's bothering me?" Twilight asked as a reminder to Dagi.

"No, we didn't," Adagio replied with a shook. "Me, Trixie, Tennis, and Cloudy decided to leave it that way, we really did not like to interfere in other people's business."

"You really meant it?" Twilight asked in unsure.

"Yes, I mean it." They both stopped for a little while as they both stare at each other, before continue to walk again. "But a piece of advise, talk to us about it instead, maybe it help you to not get troubled about it."

Twilight sighed in upset after that advice. "I'm not sure it can help me."

"I know, but it's worth a shot," Adagio said as she looked at her frown face. "By the way, who else knows your secret?"

"I prefer the word Classified Information, for that question, there are 7 of them," Twilight then looked at Dagi in cold. "You four, Flash, and both school principals."

"Wait," Adagio was surprised with the last person who knows her secret. "You mean our school principals?"

"Yes," Twilight replied in confirm. "Both Principal Celestia and Luna."

"How did you even able to convince them to keep your secrets?"

"That's a long story," Twilight replied, Adagio was a little annoyed with that words. "And the conversation was kinda rough for me, I don't know for them."

They then walked in silence as they witness the other students and friends doing their activities from distance. As they walked, something dawned on Twilight's mind, something that she was still wondering.

"You know?" Twilight said. "There is something that makes me wondering."

"What is it?" Adagio asked as she still locking her sight at Twilight.

"When I die?"

Adagio felt her heart frosted to her question and her eyes went wide and stopped walking. She opened her mouth and about to say something, but none came. Twilight walked away from her as she was shocked to her question. Soon afterwards, Adagio snapped herself out and catch up with her to their friends. When they reached the climbing wall, they both can see that Aria is already halfway climbing the wall while Sonata and Juniper watching from below.

"How are you doing up there?" Sonata asked with a shout.

"You know what?" Aria replied with a shout of worry. "After I think again this is a bad idea for me!"

"At least you didn't fall from 10.000 feet sky high!" Twilight shouted at Aria, earning a surprising glare from Dagi, Juniper and Sonata (Twilight really meant it).

"Well, you think she can reach the top?" Juniper asked to Twilight.

Twilight observed how's Aria doing, until she spot something that would be 'unpleasant' for Aria (AKA physical pain).

"You want to know what I think?" Twilight asked to them as she looked at them in calm. "Shit's gonna hit the fan."

They didn't felt insulted with her harsh words (Except for Juniper who is suddenly got upset with that), but then Adagio asked her with her arms folded. "What do you mean shit's gonna hit the fan?"

Twilight's words came true, Aria fell off from the wall when she's still halfway the climbing wall with a scream. Aria then hardly landed on the soft mattresses, saving her from getting physical pain. Aria then tried to stand up as she tries to balance herself from getting fall again. After she stands up, she earned a dumbfounded glare from them except for Twilight.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Aria asked in slight confused.

They then turned their attention at Twilight, who just said something to them. "Told you, shit's gonna hit the fan."

"How did you even see that coming?" Juniper asked.

"She grabbed the wrong rock and slipped," Twilight then leave them behind, about to go to the river, plus earning a glare from Aria.

"Well, yeah I slipped," Aria admitted, her friends then stared at her again. "But I don't know which rocks she meant a wrong one."

Twilight was walking down towards the pier at the river that was made by her friends and herself with hard work. Though Twilight was a little upset with the last time Pinkie blew the pier with explosive-magic marshmallow and confetti, so they had to rebuild it again, twice. When Twilight reached the pier, there she met with Derpy, Sandalwood, Tennis, Bulk, Mystery Mint and Microchip. They didn't eager to talk with her, but after Twilight gave a good mood expression they then decided to met up with her.

"Hey there, Twilight," Tennis greeted her with a smile, along with the five them. "How's your day?"

"Been better," Twilight replied with a smile. "How's yours?"

"Great for sure!" Microchip replied with a cheer. "And by the way, nice singing back in the bus."

"Thanks," Twilight replied sheepishly.

"You weren't really want to sing that time, right?" Mystery asked.

"Well, kind of...." Twilight replied with a shrug whilst looking into the sky for a few seconds. "I just need something to vent out my feelings."

"Twilight, we don't really know that you actually like country song," Bulk admitted. "Why did you like it?"

Twilight though for a moment why she like it, but the only answers that she can gain is only one. "Well, I like the feelings that they had in the song, that's all I can say."

"Was that the Johnny Cash verse?" Derpy asked in curious as she unloading the rope anchor from the pier, she does liked country song.

"Yeah, Johnny Cash verse." But then Twilight noticed that the boat that Derpy was about to get on was about to sailing from the pier, everyone didn't notice that because they were staring at Twilight. "Uh.... you do know that boat is about to get away right?"

For the sake of their surprise, Derpy quickly looked at the boat that was about to get away and quickly jumped on the boat, while the others watching in awe. "Don't worry! I can handle this!"

As Derpy trying to handle the boat, Twilight made out a joke. "Now that's Derpy's verse of Titanic."

They laughed to that joke except Twilight who was only smiling, they have imagine would happen if Derpy made her own Titanic movie. "That's funny, Twilight!" Sandalwood commented in cheer.

Derpy really having touble to stabilize the boat since it shaking left and right. Eventually, she can handle that and set out to row to the middle of the river. "Alright, I'll be having fun here for awhile!"

"Be careful there!" Mystery shouted at Derpy with a raised tone.

"Well, I hope she's not sinking out there," Bulk said hopefully.

"Nah, she'll be fine," Twilight said in no doubt.

"So, Twilight?" Mystery asked. "How do you feel back to this camp again?"

"Peaceful," Twilight replied, kinda slightly confused them on why did she answer that.

"Right, at least everything went smooth as expected," Microchip said in confident. "No bad stuff about magic happened here."

"Yeah," Twilight agreed with a trailed off tone. "No bad magic stuff happened here."

"Something's wrong, Twilight?" Tennis asked in concern after she heard the tone by accident.

"Can we both...." Twilight paused. "Talk for awhile?"

Tennis considered for a moment with that, but then she decides. "Alright, what about we talked with Trixie and Cloudy?" Mystery, Sandalwood, Microchip, and Bulk wondered why would they both want to talk with Trixie and Cloudy.

"That's fine," Twilight said with a nod but cold.

"Alright, follow me," Tennis said as they both left the pier, leaving their friends behind to watch them leave.

"Such an odd behavior," Microchip commented in suspicion as his hand was underneath his chin. "But at least they both are good friends for now."

"I wonder if there's a way to read her mind," Sandalwood said with a hum.

"Actually, Sunset can do that," Mystery said. "But the problem is she needs to touch her if she want to read her mind."

At the tents, Sunset was with her Rainbooms band and Spike talking to each other. After awhile, they then spotted Twilight and Tennis walked together after they passed them by, heading to Tennis's tent. Both Sunset and Applejack went outside their tent and watched them. When they watched them reached the tent from the tent they're at, there were Trixie, Cloudy, Vice Principal Luna and Principal Celestia there. Twilight seem surprised that she will talk with the principals along with her certain friends, but afterwards she talked to them.

"I wonder what is she talking about to them," Applejack commented a little loud as they both watched them talking, her friends in the tent nodded in consent whilst Sunset and Applejack returned back inside the tent.

"Nah, we better leave them alone," Dash said, leaning her head back. "Maybe they can get something out from her?"

"That's 'maybe'," Sunset said, nodding her head at Dash. "But I agree with that."

"Is she doing fine until now days ago?" Rarity asked to Spike.

"I can't tell," Spike said with a doubt, though that was a lie and AJ ironically somehow didn't notice that. "She's still the same after days."

"At least there's nothing bad from her than that," Fluttershy sighed a relieve.

"But even that, how do we will know what's up with her?" Rarity asked, raised both palms in front of her shoulders.

"What about we inspect her belongings?" Pinkie asked. "She puts those bags next to her bed, right?" Come true to her words, there were Twilight's bags next to her bed.

The last time Sunset and the 4 of them remembered that her bags weren't brought in the tent that time as they are still looking at it. "That was coincidence."

"What about we checked it out now?" Dash said, pointing her thumb to the bags.

"No, not now," Sunset answered in nervous. "I don't want Twilight knew that we're going to looked into her bags."

They were disappointed with that, Spike then spoke. "If you want to check her stuff out, then you need to wait for her to gone to somewhere else."

"We know, darling, but-" Rarity then got cut off by Spike.

"When I said wait for her to gone to somewhere else, I meant that SHE IS NOT IN CAMP EVERFREE," Spike interrupted. "From what I see she has the senses if there something is wrong, even if it's far away. Waiting for her to get out from here is the only way for us to find out."

"How the hay she got that kind of sense?" AJ asked in disgusted as she winced her left eye.

"She has a sense, well," Spike paused. "It was actually instinct."

"Instinct?" Sunset was surprised. "That's something new for us."

"Hmmm," Dash did remember something. "Trixie did told me that she was in the class days ago when the school day is over. The day we almost got robbed by a robber who got killed by an unknown shooter. The class was very empty, only Trixie who was still in the class. She did say that when she was about to touch Twilight's bag, Twilight suddenly showed up behind her without a noise and stopped her touching the bag." Rarity receive the word 'eh?' from her friends who were leaning their heads back in confused.

"How does even she could suddenly showed up from nowhere without noise?" Fluttershy asked in doubt.

"Are you saying that. she has an ability to teleport?" Sunset asked, but then receive a shook implying 'no' from Pinkie.

"She doesn't know the spell to teleport," Pinkie said with a shrug. "So nope."

"But I guess she has the same speed as me!" Dash said in reckless. "Looks like we both can suddenly showed up everywhere we want!"

Sunset looked out the tent and see that Twilight is still at tennis's tent, talking to her friends. Twilight didn't even looked towards her tent. Sunset went back in again to continue the conversation again.

"Dash, in this case she suddenly showed up silently out from nowhere," AJ said quickly. "Ya' maybe showed up real fast but ya' always made loud noise to do dat."

"Oh come on, AJ," Dash said with overconfidence. "There's no way she would showed up like that."

"What the hell you just said?" A voice said from behind them, startling them.

They turned around and got surprised that Twilight was already right behind them standing at the tent entrance, without producing a single noise from the wooden floor or grass. "Oh, h-hi, Twilight," Rarity said in awkward as she smiles while she waves her hand at her.

Twilight tilted her head in suspicion and cold. "What's wrong? Looks like you've been seeing a ghost."

"H-how did you come here like that?" Sunset asked in a little puzzled, figuring out how did she popped up like that.

"I have my own ways," Twilight replied to her in serious, the same answer after they heard the announcement.

"Your own ways?" Fluttershy asked with a gasp. "Twilight, you're scaring me..."

"There's nothing to be afraid of for now, Fluttershy," Twilight said to her. "It's not like we got shitstorm here."

"Can ya' just stop saying that?" Applejack said in annoyed, but Twilight only give a cold glare at Applejack and somehow she felt a chill on her back. "Ya' know what? Nevermind..."

Twilight nodded, then she looked at sunset in serious. "What you were talking about?"

"Nothing important," Sunset replied to her with a shaky tone as she scratched her head. "Discussing about what we're going to do here and stuff."

"Uh huh," Twilight said in flat tone as she slowly nodded still in suspicion. "Did you girls talked about me?" they were surprised with their eyes open wide at her, she heard they talked about her.

"No, no, we're not!" Pinkie lied to her, Twilight once again stare deeply into her eyes coldly, and Pinkie couldn't resist. "Alright, we did talked about you a little bit."

Twilight silent for a few seconds before she respond whilst still staring at her. "A little?"

"A little," Rarity replied, wincing her right eye and giving her a finger gesture with thumb and index finger to show the size of how little is it.

"Alright, Spike," Twilight called. "Are my stuffs okay?"

"Still okay, Twily," Spike said with his doggy nod.

"Good," Twilight said with a replied nod and smile. "Come on, Spike. What about we get something to eat?"

"Sure, why not?" Spike then hop off from the bed and then walked over to Twilight.

"If you need me, I'll be at the picnic tables," Twilight said with a frown before she left them with Spike, heading towards the picnic tables.

"Alright," Dash paused. "How did she showed up like that?"

"Without a noise?" AJ asked, adding the missing words for Dash's question.

"Yeah..." Dash said, trailing off. "Without a noise....."

"What does she means she has her own ways?" Fluttershy asked to them in fear.

"She can handle anything on her own alright," Pinkie said. "She can get out from a dense and dangerous forest on her own." She earned the glares of her friends in unsure.

"You sure about dat? Applejack asked in doubt.

"Nah, I don't know," Pinkie replied with a cheery shrug. "Just a hunch."

"Right," Dash then looked over to Rarity. "By the way, how did she know we were talking about her?"

"I don't know, darling," Rarity replied with a shrug. "Maybe she eavesdrop our conversation from outside the tent?"

"No way, Rarity," Sunset said. "She still at Tennis's tent a minute ago, so there's no way she heard our conversation."

"Then what Spike said is true!" Pinkie said quickly. "She has instinct."

"Ah' think this is more than just an instinct," Applejack commented. "Looks like she has sixth sense as well or she has a sharp instinct."

"Really?" Dash asked. "How does she even sharpen her instincts like that?"

"I don't know," but then Sunset remembered something, she missed something. "Wait, does anyone noticed Twilight isn't using any magic this lately?"

They were forgot about that, plus didn't realize about that. Everyone made their eyes rolling to that question.

"She isn't any magic for these days," Pinkie answered quickly. "It's like she barely never used her magic."

"Yeah, why is that?" Dash asked in puzzled.

"Not sure why though," Sunset replied. "I must see what's inside her memories so we can get the bottom of this."

21:34 PM

It was already night, everyone gather around the campfire to enjoy the night. The warming sensation of the campfire does give a comfort to everyone under the cold of the night. Twilight and Spike were sitting next to Timber and Gloriossa while her Rainbooms friends sitting next to her, and next to them again are The Dazzlings. Tennis, Cloudy, and Trixie sat down on the opposite side of Twilight's position. Principal Celestia, Vice Principal Luna, Vinyl, Octavia, Sandalwood, Microchip, Mystery, Derpy, and the rest sat dawn in between them, behind them, and next to them. There were chats and Flash playing on his guitar, but for Twilight, she only stay quiet and don't want to talk.

"Twilight?" Timber called her after he looked over her. "Why so silent?"

She sighed and shook her head. "Just thinking about something else. It's not important."

Gloriossa then looked over to Twilight, peeking out by Timber. "So, what do you think about a tour to the forest?"

"Very okay with that," Twilight replied with a smile. "Heck if it's dangerous."

"Oh really?" Mystery asked with a chuckle. "What about the wolfs lurking out there?"

"One, is not a problem," Twilight said in serious, giving an index finger to Mystery. "If there's a pack of it, now that's an F problem."

"Really, Twilight?" Principal Celestia asked, annoyed for her censored swearing. "An F?"

"Yeah," Twilight said, folding her arms. "An F."

"That's just great," Octavia said, also annoyed of Twilight's censored swearing.

"So, how's the golfing problem with Vice Principal Luna?" Twilight asked to Principal Celestia, obviously getting sick of that problem because for Luna's action to her golfing stick.

"Really, Twilight?" Luna asked to her. "You had to bring that up again?"

"Yeah, she had," Celestia said, answering her sister's question. "Well, I got it sort out with that problem. Now I won't be bother with that anymore."

"I didn't know you do golfing, Celestia," Timber said in surprised.

"Yep," Celestia said as she tilted her head to the right. "Until months ago, Luna hide my golfing stick by shoving it to the car engine of mine. I had to change the car engine with a new one."

Everyone laughed with that story. Luna only smile sheepishly with that. "Ah, come on, sister!"

"How did Vice Principal Luna able to shove it to the car engine?" Juniper asked to Celestia.

"From what I see that Luna forced the golfing stick to the engine," Twilight answered, helping Celestia with that. "I and AJ had to fixed it up until I can see that the engine had to change."

"Why do you even want to hide her golfing stick, Vice Principal?" Aria asked.

"I'm just getting sick to see her playing golf," Luna replied angrily. "I hate golfing!"

"And you had to do that to your sister?" Celestia asked to Luna angrily as she turns her head at her. "Jeez, Luna!"

Everyone laughed again for that, after awhile Rainbow then asked Twilight. "Hey, Twilight, how's the climbing at that climbing wall?"

"Easy for me," Dash gave a neutral expression at her, though she is actually surprise with that.

"Really, didn't even slip?" Dash asked her.

"I didn't slip," Twilight replied with a shook. "Aria did."

"How did you even slip?" Fluttershy asked to Aria.

"Well, Twilight said that I was grabbing the wrong rock and I fell," Aria explained. "Good thing there are mattresses down there, if not, it really hurts."

"Hey Aria," Twilight called her, Aria then looked over to Twilight. "No pain, no gain."

The Dazzlings, the Rainbooms, and the principals chuckled at that proverbs word. Twilight laughed a little to her joke alongside Timber and Daisy. When they about to talked again, suddenly Twilight's phone rang. They silent for awhile waiting for Twilight to pickup the phone, while some of them talked to each others about other topics. Twilight looked over to her phone to see who's calling, not giving Timber and Daisy a look on whose in the phone. Twilight's eyes gone wide and gave a surprising expression in silent after found out that Spc. Rendor is the one who's calling her.

"Who is it?" Timber asked curiously.

Twilight didn't gave an answer as the phone keep ringing. "I'll be back." She then left her friends and the campfire to answer the phone from a distant under the dark cover of night.

After a few seconds, Timber and Daisy then looked away from Twilight and looked over to them as he points his finger towards the walking away Twilight. "Who's that?" Timber asked to them, want to know who's the guy on the phone.

"We don't know," Juniper answered with both palms raised next to her shoulders.

"She's been answering like that if she got a phone call from someone," Flash said, stopped playing his guitar. "Though, excluding the friends we know about."

"What?" Daisy asked, unrealized that she just rolled her own eyes. "Why even the fuss like that?"

"She's been like this for days, Daisy," Sunset replied as she rubbed her arm. "She always being cold when talking with us, sometimes in good mood. She kept a secret from us and we don't know what."

"Do you guys even tried to find out about it?" Daisy asked to them, but receive a lot of shook of no.

"She's like already one step ahead of us," AJ added, raising her shoulders. "Not really sure how the hay did she do that."

"Like Twilight said," Dash added, crossing her legs on the other leg. "She has her own way."

"What if she has a secret boyfriend that I don't know of?" Timber asked, their eyes open wide upon hearing that. What they can expect is he has jealousy.

"That's a maybe," Sonata said with a little doubt. "Maybe she's talking with him now?"

A few moments later, Twilight has returned back to the campfire from the dark and sat down next to Timber. She was still holding her phone, but then she store it back to her pocket. Twilight could sense something wrong because everyone went silence. Timber then looked at her in angry and jealous expression.

"Who were you talking to?" Timber asked to her quickly.

"A friend of mine," then Twilight's senses are kicking in and replied to them in cold. "You're asking me that because you thought that I have a 'secret boyfriend', right? Then you're wrong."

Timber opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but then nothing came. They were surprised that she knows that even if she was far away from them. Then it's Daisy's turn to ask her.

"Who is this......" Daisy paused. "Friend of yours?"

Twilight shook her head and looked straight to Daisy in cold and neutral anger. "None of your concern."

"What about what you draw on your notebook?" Vinyl asked, surprising Timber and Daisy. "You were drawing a handsome man."

"That's because I wanted to draw something," Twilight replied in flat tone. "These days I was wondering if my drawing skills are getting better or worse."

"What about the-?" Timber then quickly got cut off by Twilight.

"Shut the fuck up! Alright?!" Twilight shouted at him in outburst, but then realized she shouted at him in front of everyone. Twilight looked over to them whilst shook her head and sighed in upset.

For not wanting to continue this annoying conversation, Twilight got off from her seat and walked back toward her tent alone. Timber's expression turns to a frown one along with Daisy, for the others were felt sad, seeing that Twilight left them at the campfire in obnoxious feelings. Sunset and her friends do nothing but looked down to the ground, they need another way to find out what's up with her. Or it might destroy their friendship like the previous events sooner or later.

"I can't believe we just made her mad," Timber complained in guilt.

"It's not your fault if she's mad like that though," Tennis said to Timber. "She's just like what she is now."

"You sure about it?" Sunset asked in doubt. "She looked like upset about it."

"She's actually not upset, Sunset," Cloudy said in understand of Twilight's feelings, putting her both hands on her knees. "She felt obnoxious about it."

They spend the rest of the night in silent and none of them nearly talking something. They all went back to their resting places one by one in sleepy. Sunset returned back to her tent where her tent roommate, Twilight is resting. When she reached the tent and went in, she saw Twilight is not yet sleeping but still lay down on her bed and kept staring at the ceiling with her left arm crossing her stomach, while Spike in other hand already sleeping in his dog size bed. Twilight didn't respond to Sunset's arrival to the tent except only keep staring at the ceiling in silence. Sunset changed clothes to pijamas then Sunset sat down on her bed and looked over to Twilight in worry.

"You're okay, Twilight?" Sunset asked. "You don't look healthy like that."

"I'm fine, I'm just..." Twilight paused with a sigh, still not bothering to look at Sunset. "I can't sleep for awhile."

"Oh," Sunset paused. "You need a friend to talk for the whole night?"

"No, thanks," Twilight replied with a denial. "You should sleep now, you're very tired."

"Sounds ironic from someone who can't sleep," Twilight only chuckled at that comment, then her expression quickly turned neutral.

For a moment she caught a glimpse of Twilight's left arm while still on top of her stomach, Sunset was a little surprised to learn that there was a scar but had been healed for so long that the only thing left in her arm was a glimpse of dark skin in the form of a small circle and a bit of dark skin around it, but though its dark color were already halfway lighter to turn normal like her original skin.

Sunset then lay down on her bed and covers herself with blanket, before she went to sleep she was called by Twilight. "Sunset, do me a favor."

"What is it?"

"Don't try to look on my memories while I'm sleeping, alright?" Twilight said. "Because I will be fucking angry if you do that, understand?"

Sunset's back felt the chills after Twilight said that, but then Sunset does what Twilight want. "Alright, I won't do that."

"Good," Twilight then turned her body to the left, facing the wall of the tent. "Goodnight, Sunset."

Sunset paused for a moment, before she responded in little worry. "Goodnight, Twilight."
