57 minutes later

After almost an hour of walking. We stop at a cave with a faint light coming from inside it.

"There it is." Twilight says.

"Let's go then." I say.

We walk inside the cave, to discover that the Elements of Harmony are missing.

"What?! They were right here!" Twilight says

"Well they aren’t here, now. Are they?" Scarlet says.

"Is that anger in your voice?

Aren’t you supposed to be the tenth great-granddaughter of The Spirit of Harmony?" Twilight says

"Are you calling me a liar?" Scarlet says.

"Yeah! Maybe I am!" Twilight says.

Scarlet says "You are so lucky you are a princess.".

"Hey! Calm down! Fighting about this isn't going to bring the Elements back, is it?! Besides, Princess Celestia probably has them!" I say.

"You're right Arthur. I don't know what came over me. I'm sorry Scarlet." Twilight says.

"No, princess. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have disrespected you." Scarlet says.

"We should start heading back." I say.

The cave starts rumbling.

"Did you feel that?" Abdulia says.

The rumbling starts again.

"The cave is collapsing! Everypony get out!" I say.

Twilight teleports half of the group out, leaving behind me, Derpy and Scarlet.

A rock falls from the ceiling hitting Scarlet's head, knocking her out, Scarlet falls to the ground.

"Scarlet!" I yell.

I pick up Scarlet, then run her out of the cave.

I run back, then I yell, "Come on Derpy! Follow my voice!"

I see Derpy run out of a cloud of dust.

A boulder comes loose from the ceiling, then starts to fall.

I push Derpy away from the boulder, saving her from being crushed.

I pick her up then start running out of the cave.

We make it outside, before the cave entrance collapses.

A voice coming from behind us says "Oh, bravo. Good job."

We look behind us, seeing Discord.

"Discord? What are you doing here?" Twilight says.

"Well, Twilight, I came here to stop you." Discord says.

Discord snaps his claws.

A cage starts forming around us.

"No! Discord, stop!" Twilight says.

The cage completes itself. Twilight tries to teleport, but fails.

"Oh, Twilight, you are so predictable." Discord says.

Twilight hits the cage in anger, then says "What about Fluttershy?"

"What about Fluttershy?

I don't care about her anymore.

Nexus told me, you ponies are not my friends, and never were.

You only wanted to save your own necks!

He told me you hate me." Discord says.

"Discord, that’s not true!" Twilight says.

"Nexus told me that everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie." Discord says.

"We have the Elements!" Twilight says.

Discord laughs, then asks "Do you?"

He laughs again, then snaps his claws and disappears.

Twilight hits the cage again, then snaps at me "This is your fault, Arthur!"

I say "My fault?"

"If you didn't make the suggestion to get the Elements, this whole thing would not have happened." Twilight says

"Twilight? What's gotten into you? You are acting like an asshole." I say.

"In fact, this whole thing is your fault. Teleporting yourself? What in Celestia's name were you thinking!? I should've sent you back through the portal!" Twilight says.

"I guess I wasn't thinking. I'm sorry, Twilight." I say.

"You guess? When this whole thing is over, I'm sending you back. Someone like you, doesn’t belong here." Twilight says.

“He almost got us killed!” Scarlet says.

“That’s another reason I should send you back! We could’ve died!” Twilight yells.

“Who knows? He could even be working with Nexus!” Scarlet says.

“Are you?! Are you?!” Twilight yells.

Twilight bucks me in the stomach, causing me to fall backwards, and almost throwing up.

“Answer me!” Twilight yells.

“No! Of course not! I would never work with someone like him! You know that!” I yell.

“Do I? Have you really changed for the better? Or are you just a criminal?” Twilight asks.

“Yes! Believe me! I changed!” I say.

A beeping noise starts coming from my bag.
