Shallow and Twilight sat down on the ground.

Shallow: You ready?

Twilight: Yeah.

Shallow: Ok then. So it all started, right before I lost my powers. I had sensed something evil, slowly growing in strength, but being in a rush, I didn't really pay any attention to it. I only had one thing on my mind at the time, but you and I both know what that was.

Twilight: Yeah.

Shallow: So, when I got my powers back, and did what I had to do with Chrysalis, I used my power of time to look into the future. I saw something, that I didn't want to see, and had to stop it from happening. That's why I'm training so hard, so that no matter what, I can protect everyone, especially you and the kids.

Twilight: Well if you knew about this for so long, then why didn't you tell me before. You can't always do everything on your own.

Shallow: I just feel like I have to.

Twilight: And I feel like you don't need me.

Shallow: I just might, but for right now, I need to continue training.

He got up, and flew up into the air, and Twilight went back to the castle, where she found Henry and Draco.

Twilight: Hey guys, where are my kids.

Draco: There with Fluttershy and Pinkiepie.

Twilight: Ok, and where are they?

Draco: They should be at the cottage.

Twilight: Thanks.

She flew off towards the cottage. Meanwhile, Shallow was punching a mountain.

Shallow: Ah! This is pointless! What's the point of doing all this training, if I can't even destroy a mountain.

?: Hey, I know how you can get stronger.

Shallow: Who's there?

He turned around, and thought that he was seeing things, but it was all too real.

Shallow: Chrysalis?

Chrysalis: Yes, and I'm sorry.

Shallow: Huh?

Chrysalis: I finally realized my mistake.

Shallow: Go on.

Chrysalis: All I ever wanted was power, but no matter what I did, I was still weak. I couldn't even defeat you, let alone take over Canterlot.

Shallow: So did you just come back to apologize?

Chrysalis: No, there's more.

Shallow: I'm listening, but don't get the wrong idea, I won't let you trick me like you did Shining Armor.

Chrysalis: I want to be your friend again.

Shallow: So, what, you thought that if you apologized, that your actions would go away. You tried to kill me!

Chrysalis: I know, and I want to make it up to you.

Shallow: I'm done with you Chrysalis, you hear me, done!

Chrysalis: Please Shallow, I want to change, I just don't know how.

He thought about for a second, and realized something. She was doing the same thing that he did to her, three years ago.

Shallow: Fine, I'll help you, but I swear to Celestia, if you try anything, I'll kill you.

Chrysalis: I understand.
