He was out of his depth, he didn't know what to do. He just wanted somepony to take charge of things, to let somepony else worry about things. He was tired of ponies yelling at him, hating him for no reason. He would rather be neglected like before than deal with all this trouble. He owed Xvital, Rex, Vix-Lei, Wind Breaker and her nothing. He could easily do it, he just had to fly off in that direction and find Striking and then everything would be taken care of. He could go back home, crawl under his blankets and pretend this never happened. His parents might even recognize that he existed after all this! Despite how much he hated them, this is what he always wanted and he could get everything he lost.
