Resting in her castle, Twilight Sparkle was minding her own business, reading in her library, when a furious Starlight Glimmer burst in, wanting answers.

Starlight was away when the Yovidaphone mess with Pinkie Pie happened, so she didn't know some of the things that happened. Such as Twilight wanting to use a spell to buy time, before Applejack talked her out of it.

But Starlight Glimmer has finally learned that her ex-teacher wanted to bring out spells. And she's not happy about it!

But you might be surprised at the reasons why she's so mad...

NOTE: This story is completely separate from my stories with the human OC Eric Reed that takes place, from a "canon" timepoint, during Season 7.

This story is soon after the events of Season 8.
