"Twilight is able to go home tomorrow" the nurse told Princess Celestia and Twilight's friends. Princess Celestia walked in to check on Twilight and found her sleeping peacefully. Celestia gave her a kiss on her brow and told her sweet dreams. Twilight slept until noon and she woke up feeling a little on the sore side. Nurse Red Heart gave Twilight some pain killers to alliviate some of the discomfort. Twlight walked home to the library much to the nurses' pleas that she use a cab. Twlight arrived at the library in fifteen minutes.
When Twilight got inside the library, she discovered Spike waiting for her. Twilight told Spike that she was going to take a nap. The little walk made Twilight so tired that she slept until the next day. Spike went over to Sugarcube corner to talk with Pinky Pie. While Spike was at Sugarcube Corner, Twilight woke up and began to do research on the Shadow Hunters. What Twilight discovered made her pale considerably. Twilight wrote a letter to Celestia about what she discovered and requested an audience with Celestia. Princess Celestia wrote back and informed Twilight that she is sending a carriage for her. 
When Shining Armor heard that Twilight was coming to visit Princess Celestia he hurried to meet her. He was fifteen feet away, he saw Twilight collapse. Shining Armor let out a scream for help, but nobody was around to hear him. Shining Armor levitated her onto his back and carried her to the hospital wing in the castle and stayed with her until a nurse saw her and hurried over to help her. Then Shining Armor ran to find Celestia.
Shining Armor was looking for Princess Celestia for about an hour when he finally found her in her chambers. He told Celestia of Twilight's arrival and her collapse. Princess Celestia was a little surprised that Twilight arrived so soon. Shining Armor asked what had happened to Twilight while he was gone. He was very concerned about her and wanted to know everything. Celestia told Shining Armor about the storm and the accident on the train. When Shining Armor asked more about the train accident, Celestia told him how Twilight used her magic to levitate the entire train to get it safely to the other side of the tracks after the tracks fell apart at the middle and this worried Shining Armor very much. He told Celestia that it left out why she collapsed. Celestia agreed with Shining Armor and told him how Twilight had died at the Ponyville Public Hospital and her friends brought her back to life using the elements of friendship. Shining Armor broke down in tears when he heard how close he came to losing his sister and his sbfff. Shining Armor went to check on Twilight. He found her fast asleep. When the nurse told him she would be alright, Shining Armor went to Ponyville to talk with Twilight's friends. He thanked them all personally and gave each of them a hug and kiss. Due to the recent events, Shining Armor requested time off to spend with his sister.  Both princesses gave him their blessing and gave him time off. Their only request was that he be ready to help at any given time. Shining Armor accepted this and went on his way. He slept by Twilight the entire time she was in the hospital wing. He began to sing to Twilight a lullaby long forgotten by the unicorn race not as a whole but most forgot the lullaby. This lullaby was one that was also a healing spell. As Shining Armor was singing, his horn began to glow a deep aquamarine blue color. The spell covered Twilight from head to hoof in a aquamarine haze. He also placed a spell that alerted the princesses and Shining Armor that Twilight was in danger and needed their help. It pained Shining Armor that he couldn't help Twilight anymore than he had already.
