Renko opened his eyes and sighed when he realized that it was dark out, he turned his head and noticed a rather large window to look out of and view the night sky, he gazed at each star as he tried to think about what the voice had meant when it spoke to him.

"What did it mean... Does the singularity still exist... but just out of phase with this time?" The more he thought about it the more he didn't want to, it only left him with more questions as he tried to figure out the answers, he groaned a bit as he turned his head back to look at the ceiling. A noise to his left caught his attention but he couldn't turn his head enough to see, a sweet and familiar voice spoke to him.

"I see you are enjoying my beautiful night... It is one of the few things I still enjoy anymore." Renko gave a small sigh before he gave his response.

"I used to enjoy the night... It helped me to relax before my waking nightmare happened... It was good to see a night that wasn't plagued by the orange glow of E99 energy again." Luna smiled a bit as she listened to him, they spoke for several minutes before Luna finally ended their conversation.

"I think you should sleep now so that you can wake up during visiting hours, there are several ponies who are worried about you, but I'm glad that I was able to speak with you in private... I don't get a chance to speak with anyone like that. Pinkie pie, the Element of Laughter, will certainly be smothering you in apologies tomorrow if she finds out you're awake... She had no intention of hurting you and was the first one to get you off the floor, she carried you all the way here without a word... I even think she cried a little bit when she was sitting by your side."

"I understand that she didn't do it on purpose... I... Under... Stand..." Renko mumbled as he drifted back to sleep. Luna gave him a small kiss on the cheek before turning into a mist of space and flew out of the room.

Renko's sleep was hardly restful, his nightmares were still filled with the monsters he spent an eternity slaying, but the monsters of his nightmares had begun to show less and less of themselves. Each night after he had met Princess Luna his nightmares had been plagued less and less by the reverts and the horrible things they were capable of. The next morning... Renko would be greeted by an event that he never thought would happen in his entire life... but for now, he was safe in a bed, he fell asleep gazing out at the night sky.

Renko blinked his eyes as the sun beamed through the gaps in the shades, he lifted a hand to shield his eyes from the light, he had to take a second to register the sea of colors in front of him... mostly because that's all he had before a pink blur quickly wrapped her front hooves around him and quickly apologized faster than he thought was possible, her apology was a blur of words since she didn't even stop to breathe.

"OhRenkoI'msosorryIneverthoughtthatyouwouldgethurtIwouldn'thavedoneitifIthoughtyouwouldgethurtIonlywantedtosurpriseyou!!!!!" Any possible meaning of what she had said was lost to most in attendance but that didn't stop Renko from trying to reassure the sobbing pink pony.

"Pinkie... It's ok... I've been through enough that it's gonna take a lot more than that to do any serious damage..." He tried to sound as convincing as possible, he felt a stab of pity as pinkie brought her face up to look him in the eye, her deep-blue eyes were bloodshot... most likely because how she was crying so much. Rainbow Dash was sitting on his other side and she explained why her friend was so different now.

"...Well... She did think that her surprise might've accidently killed you, with all the blood that we saw we certainly thought so, she was so worried about you that she was actually waiting in the waiting room the entire time you've been in here crying her eyes out." Once again Pinkie buried her face in Renko's chest and began another string of words that he assumed was another breathless apology, Renko let his hand fall to her shoulder and he tried to let her know that he was alright.

"Pinkie... I'm serious, I've been attacked by creatures that would sooner kill anything that moved than anything else, I've survived much worse." Her sobs began to slow down a little as everypony in the room were surprised at how calm Renko was... Except for Luna, she knew what he meant because she had seen the monsters he had fought, she had been trying for the past several weeks to stop Renko's nightmares. Luna gave a small smile when she noticed that Renko wasn't as worried over his nightmares anymore. Luna clasped her forehooves together, getting everyone's attention, she wanted to make sure that none of them missed what she was about to say.

"The doctors had informed me that the Sergeant here would be making a full recovery in two days time, I've given Captain Armor a request to test your skill to see if you can become a member of the Royal Guards, all-in-all you should have most needs set up for you by the time you are able to leave." Twilight was impressed by how quickly Luna was beginning to speak like the modern ponies instead of how she had spoken a thousand years ago. Luna smiled at Renko and he had given a silent nod of understanding. Everypony gave a final goodbye to him, Twilight gave him the present she brought with her, the lavender unicorn placed a book on his lap to at least keep him entertained while he waited in the infirmary. She explained that her friends needed to get back to Ponyville but that she would stop in tomorrow to see how he was doing.
