First Octavia witnesses her best marefriend killed violently and Twilight agrees to protect her. Then we learn Vinyl's true nature; in the process Octavia is injured and changed into something she doesn't really understand. Twilight falls in with the problems and when the thing that had tried to kill Vinyl takes it upon it's back to cause suffering he doesn't care that it almost kills her. Now Twilight and Octavia can't stand the other; one annoyed by desire for the hypnotizing voice the other by the hatred for the creature the other has become.
