As soon as Twilight and the wolf stepped into the guest room, the wolf transformed into the Heroes Shade. "Here to yell at me?" he asked, sitting back and not looking at his undead skeleton of a grandfather. "Hardly" said the familiar, chilling voice. "Though I would say that I am a bit... surprised that you brought them here Grandson" That was a first. Though, they both knew now, so there was no point in pretending, was there? "I didn't want to bring them here. A portal opened, and we went through...." he tried to explain. 

"Have you ever stopped to think.... that you don't need to go through those portals?" asked the Hero's Shade. Twilight shook his head. "And then what, get stuck in one dimension? No thank you" he responded. "You can be foolish at times... just like your father" Twilight spun around, and finally stepped up to the Hero's Shade. "Majora wasn't foolish... he was pure evil, grandfather" he stopped for a moment, as if checking the undead creatures eyes for something, anything. "Majora was not your father" said the Hero's Shade. "This is the second time you've said that in the past 24 hours" he complained. "Majora has no power here.... if you were to stay" Twilight let out a laugh. 

"Stay? Are you insane? Has your brain started to rot as well? Midna would never let me stay, and besides, I have friends in Hyrule. There's no way that I'd leave them" he yelled. The undead hero didn't move. "It would be the safest thing for you... and I only wish you not to meet an end like I did" he said, his voice getting softer. Twilight scowled. "Get. Out" he said under his breath. The shade shook his head, and turned back into a wolf, which then disappeared into nothing. Twilight scoffed, and turned towards his window. Like always, it was twilight out. And beautiful it was. The pinks and purples and blues lit up the afternoon sky like fireworks. He smiled. Maybe the Hero's Shade had a point, staying here wouldn't be so bad. Midna would be a annoyed but... he could take her temper, couldn't he? 

He sighed and sat back in the chair he was sitting in. Perhaps staying here, and leaving the others, wasn't such a bad idea.... The others would be safe, wouldn't they? He thought about this as he slowly nodded off to sleep.
