"AHHHHHHH!!!" >"Calm down!" Nightmare Moon yelled in vain, as the volume of Silver Spoon's screaming increased by a couple decibels. >**"SILENCE!"** The Moon Princess shouted with an intense ferocity, one that crackled lightning in the dreamscape and illuminated her eyes for a split second. >Silver Spoon silenced immediately, but with a mix of terror and firm rebelliousness in her eyes. >"You need to be quiet. You're in grave danger." "Yeah, from you!" >"What?" "Don't act surprised, you keep sending those night terrors after me!" >Nightmare Moon's brown was confused for only a second before she furrowed them. "Is that what *she* told you?" "What?" >"We don't have time for this!" The mare snarled. "Just hold still." NMM lowered her horn. "Wa-wa-wa-wait! What are you doing-" >Sil only managed to take a single step back before a flash of light emitted from NMM's horn. However, oddly enough, she didn't feel anything different. >Blinking twice, NNM flashed her horn again. "Hey! My eyes!" Silver Spoon rubbed her eyes. "Stop that!" >"Why isn't it working?" "What isn't working? Just what was it you're trying to do?!" >NMM grumbled to herself. "I was *trying* to erase your memories." "What?!" >"You weren't supposed to defeat that Nightmare Force. You were supposed to have your fears and memories of the nightmare eaten by it." "What?! What the hell are you saying?" >"Nightmare Forces feed off the insecurities and fears of ponies, then feed off their memories before they wake up." >NMM stepped forth, lowering her head to Silver Spoon's eye level. "The reason these Nightmare Forces are going after you is *because* they all see the memory of you killing one of their kind. They see you as a *threat!* And if I can't remove that memory, they will continue to go after you!"
