"Spike you know I don't like how you lie to me! Why didn't you tell me about this?"

Thorax was waking up. He could hear two ponies talking in the background.

"I'm sorry Twilight. I wanted you to relax, I mean this is a vacation"

"Spike! Something like this is serious! You don't keep this from me!

"Spike?" Thorax called weakly.

"Thorax!" Twilight said releived. "Are you okay?"

"Oh no" Thorax tried to smile since he was busted for keeping this under wraps. "Huh, hey Twilight. How...how is your vacation going?" Twilight looked at him disapointed, she knew his game. She been doing this Spike since he first hatched. "I'm in trouble aren't I?" Twilight nodded. "Oh boy"

"What were you thinking Thorax?" Twilight yelled. "You clould have been killed!"

"How do you know"

"Thorax I saw you! I was the one saved you!"

"Proove it." Twilight reached into her saddle bag and pulled out the mask she was wearing the night before.

"Aw come on!" Thorax complained. The two started to argue and Spike was feeling being in the crossfire.

"I'll just let my self out" Spike informed them, but they didn't really hear him. Spike slowly walked out the door. As soon as he closed it he quickly put his ear against it, trying to listen in to the conversation. He couldn't make out what was going on.

"Why did I even do this if I knew you were going to be like this?" Thorax stated.

"What do you mean?" Twilight asked softly, offended of the turn of events.

"I risked my life to keep you alive! Those changelings were going to kill you Twilight! I heard them in their hideout! I was trying to keep that from happening!" He stopped in the middle of his senence and turned to the window. "I just, didn't want to loose the first freinds I ever had. Because when you loose one freind, you loose them all, then you loose your self." Twilight was suprized at what he said.

"Thorax, I didn't know you felt this way"

"No,..." Thorax stood up. "You didn't" He then walked out of the room. Spike was standing there, listening to the hole thing.

"Are you okay Twilight?" He asked. She did not anwser him. Spike walked up to her and gave her a hug. "It's fine Twilight, you'll get over it." But Twilight knew he wasn't going to get over it. Like he said, loose one freind, loose all freinds, loose yourself.

Later she and her freinds had breackfest in the dining car and was heading to the lounge car. Twilight wasn't very happy after her fight with Thorax, and the others where noticing. "Well, at least she's not worried something is going to happen on this trip" Pinkie Pie commented.

"Pinkie, this is serious" Rainbow Dash explaned. "Twilight is not in the best of moods. It's like she got in a fight with somepony."

"You all go on ahead" Applejack sugested. "Ah'll to talk to Twilight" The others just took her advice and continued on to the lounge. "Twilight" Applejack began. "Is somethan wrong?"

"No, Applejack" Twilight anwsered.

"Twilight, Ah know yur' lien' to me."

"How do you do it?"

"Do what?"

"How do you know when somepony is lying? Nothing can get pass you."

"That's because, Ah was a lier once."

Twilight laughed and Applejack was annoyed. "Oh, you were serious? Sorry. Continue."

"Okay back to you."

"I forgot what we were talking about. What was it again."

"Why you were feeling down and out."

Twilight knew their was no ecsape from talking about what happened with her and Thorax. "You got me Applejack. I can't get out of this can I?" Applejack nodded.

Thorax was just in his room just thinking about what happened last night and the fight he had earlier.

'I don't know what I shoul do. Twilight is my freind, I should apologize to her. I just can't figure out what to do. It's like I'm falling.

All sorts of thoughts flew through his mind. He looked out the window of the passing scenery which changing from deserts to lush pinetree forests.

I just wanna stay in the sun where I find

I know it's hard sometimes

Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind

I know it's hard sometimes

Yeah, I think about the end just way too much

But it's fun to fantasize

On my enemies who wouldn't wish who I was

But it's fun to fantasize

Oh, oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride

Oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride

Taking my time on my ride

"I'd die for you," that's easy to say

We have a list of people that we would take

A bullet for them, a bullet for you

A bullet for everybody in this room

But I don't seem to see many bullets coming through

See many bullets coming through

Metaphorically, I'm the man

But literally, I don't know what I'd do

"I'd live for you," and that's hard to do

Even harder to say when you know it's not true

Even harder to write when you know that tonight

There were people back home who tried talking to you

But then you ignored them still

All these questions they're for real

Like "Who would you live for?",

"Who would you die for?"

And "Would you ever kill?"

Oh, oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride

Oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride

Taking my time on my ride

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

Oh, oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride

Oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time

Taking my time on my ride

Oh, oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride

Oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my

I've been thinking too much

Help me

I've been thinking too much

Help me

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

I've been thinking too much

Help me

Thorax heard knocking at his door so he walked over. As he opened the door to his suprize it none other than...

"Twilight. What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to talk to you. May I come in?"

"Of course you can." He opened the door to alowing her to come inside.

"So what wrong? Other than what happened earlier"

"That's what I wanted to talked to you about. Look I'm sorry for happened. I was worried about you. Plus with Crystalis alive and still out their. I don't know why you didn't come to me about this."

"Twilight, I didn't want you to worry. This was your day off. I really do feel bad for lying to you about this. I was going to warn you guys but you already left the castle. So I dicided to do this my self, guess I was way over my self. Freinds?" Thorax was expecting a  hoof shake but Twilght gave him a hug.

"Freinds"

Thorax was suprized but he retured the hug. After 5 seconds, the broke up the hug. Twilight then walked out of the room. As the closed shut. Thorax returned to his thoughts. 'I don't know if we're just freinds. Or something more...'

As Twilight walked down the hallway of the Pullmare car she was thinking of the dream from last night.

'What does my dream mean? Maby I get more anwsers tonight. If nothing else goes wrong.'
