As Twilight Sparkle enters her Home, she lets her horn glow to shut her door tight, forgetting to lock it, before beginning to walk up the stairs, to her room, before seeing Starswirl The Bearded in front of her, who was levitating the book she hid under her bed, Twilight sighs and looks away.
"Are we really doing this again...?" Starswirl asks in some sort of annoyance, Twilight turns her back to him and shakes her head.
"You don't understand... We ca-" Twilight quickly gets cut off, Starswirl walking up to her and putting her hoof on her shoulder, making her face him.
"I understand plenty... Your too focused on stopping this dumb storm thing, we can think about that when we get there!" Starswirl says, getting a bit aggressive.

As Princess Platinum opens the door, she sees Twilight Sparkle get very, very angry, her horn sparking an aggressive pink glow.
"Your not the one who has been in a Wasteland for most her life!!!" Twilight yells in an emotional fury, a mix of angry and sad, tears leaking out of her eyes, Platinum slowly walks up the stairs, sighing.
"Twilight... We get that, but you cant keep doing this, I can tell its mentally straining" Platinum chimes in, but Twilight growls lowly, swiftly turning her head back to her.
"You have no idea what its like to still live in a nightmare Wasteland!!! To relive the deaths of everypony you have ever loved, that you saw right before your eight year old eyes!!!" Twilight screams in a fury, full on sobbing at this point, as her horn crackles with some electricity, before teleporting away in a sudden pink zap, taking the book with her.

As Twilight Sparkle teleports away in heated and emotional state, Princess Platinum looks at Starswirl The Bearded, they both then look down, sighing.
"She's too obsessed with the future... And not about the present..." Platinum says, Starswirl thinks to himself for a moment, before sighing and looking up to her.
"She's right you know? We don't understand what she's been through..." Starswirl admits, Platinum then looks up and tilts her head.
"How don't we understand? She's told us before, we understand plenty!" Platinum exclaims, but Starswirl just shakes his head.
"Yes, she's told us the story, but that doesn't mean we understand, we haven't lived through it, we don't connect with her story..." Starswirl calmly explains, before going down the stairs to the lower floor, Platinum watches as Starswirl goes down stairs, thinking about it, before following.
"I guess your right.. Shall we go and look for her?" Platinum asks curiously, Starswirl nods a small bit as the two walk out the House.
"Yes... Lets go get the others..." Starswirl says, as they both walk to the direction of Sugarcube Corner, walking through the doors.
