Silent didn't even acknowledge her as he stared into the water, he saw a reflection of his younger self, before the horrible things he did. ((Flashback)) Silent walked into the throne room, followed by several other Nightwatch, after another successful mission dismantling an elite clan of warriors who were terrorizing small villages. He approached the throne and bowed respectfully to Celestia. "We are in your debt once again, Silent Night. Your service to Equestria will not go unnoticed." Silent stood back up. "I live to serve Equestria, your highness." Suddenly Twilight appeared in the room and hugged him. "Oh Silent, I'm so relieved you made it home!" She said nuzzling him. "Of course, mother. I always do." Soul looked on proudly at his son. "You did well, son. I'm proud of you." Silent smiled at his father's praise. "Thank you, father. Excuse me, there is someone else I must meet." He said nodding as he left the room. Waiting for him in the hallway was a beautiful earth pony mare, who immediately hugged him tightly. "Every day you were gone was miserable." She said softly. Silent lifted her head and kissed her passionately. "I'm here now, Amaranthe. It's ok." They kissed again and Silent nuzzled her neck. Suddenly Amaranthe coughed a few times. "Are you alright hun?" He asked concerned. Amaranthe smiled and brushed it off. "Don't worry, Silent. I'll be ok." ((End Flashback)) Silent's reflection returned to his current state as he looked up at Rose. "I thought you'd be too busy bothering my father and the other two's spirits to come chat." He said blankly.
