Goldenheart recovers from her shocked daze to hear the next thing her father says. "So, are you ready for your first day of school, pumpkin?"

Goldenheart stammers. "My-my what?"

Silverheart gives a hearty laugh. "Your first day at Celestia's School of Magically Gifted Unicorns of course! I was so proud when you passed the entrance exam! It seems that you inherited your old man's powers, eh."

Suddenly, the scene flickers for a moment and a loud static fills the air. For a second, the scene in front of Goldenheart disappears and the image of a dark room with an empty table stands in front of her. Before she can fully, register what has happened, she returns to the dining room. "I..."

Snowy Sky is beaming down at her daughter with great pride in her eyes. "Come on now, take a seat little one and enjoy your breakfast."

Goldenheart isn't given much of a choice as she is ushered by her mother into the seat across from her brother. Sitting in front of her is a stack of pancake, chocolate chip pancakes in fact. The tiny little sweets have been formed into a smiling face...The scene flickers again, like a television that is having trouble with connection. Something is very wrong. Goldenheart hesitantly picks up her fork with magic and takes a small bite. Her father chuckles again. "Nervous, are you?"

Goldenheart, knowing this is a dream, plays along. "Um...yeah I am...Dad."

Silverheart chuckles. "Ah, don't be, sunshine. You'll do fine! After all, you're a Heart! And Hearts are the strongest family out there when it comes to unicorns! You've also got some Sky blood in you. It will give you strength!"

Goldenheart gives a small chuckle and takes another bite of her pancakes. They are absolutely amzing. The taste so good and leave her stomach feeling warm and happy...She almost begins to fall into a stupor when she snaps back to reality. "What's going on here?"

Silverheart pauses in his eating and looks up at Goldenheart. "What ever do you mean, Goldie?"

The scene flickers again when he says this word and a low static begins to rise in the background. A chilling tone sounds softly in Goldenheart's ears...A familiar one. "This is all a lie! Why am I being shown this!?"

The static begins to grow in volume. Silverheart smiles gently. "Why? I'll tell you why."

There's a snap and both Snowy Sky and Hawkwing freeze. They stop with their forks raised and their mouths parted to accept another bite. Silverheart's grin turns cold. "I'm showing you the importance of choices, my dear. What else? You could have had this life. Me and Snowy Sky living happily together, you having a happy childhood. It would have been grand, I must say. Unfortunately, that is not what happened, is it? No...the choices your mother and I made caused this scenario to be quite impossible. It seems you inherited your poor choice-making skills from us. However, that doesn't mean you can't learn, my dear."

Goldenheart sneers. "Get out of my head, you bastard! You are merely a figment of my imagination! I can banish you from here forever!"

Silverheart smiles. "Am I, Goldenheart. Come now, you should know your dear old dad when you see him."

Goldenheart: "Impossible. You can't bridge the gap into the mortal world! You're dead!"

Silverheart: "So long as your memories of me remain, Goldenheart. I am never dead. Yes, I am your creation, but you cannot be my executioner. I am far beyond your control Goldenheart. Just watch me!"

The scene goes black and the dining table room fades away and Goldenheart is sent into a sea of blackness....

Goldenheart's eyes snap open and she once again finds herself waking up in a bed. She finds herself in a cold sweat. Her sheets are absolutely soaked, but she gives off a sigh of relief. Her body feels grown again...Maybe Strongheart mustered up the strength to teleport them back to Hollow Shades and she was resting in an inn...That must be it. Her surrondings seem very unfamiliar. She looks around the room, but she seems to have her glasses off because she can barely see a thing...Then, a voice so familiar and filled with so much caring sounds behind her.

Levi: "Goldenheart? Are you alright?"

Goldenheart's blood becomes ice in her veins.

The Wisp observes with the other two ponies. The smoke swirls together until it forms an exact copy of Goldenheart...She bows her head. "This will be rough for her. This dream will not let her go easily."
