Canterlot: The capital city of the sprawling, majestic land of Equestria. The cliffside city was a miracle of engineering and magic, built on the side of an impossibly tall cliff face, it had a magnificent view of a vast expanse of Equestria, a symbol of the city's status as the seat of power in the land. It radiated a strange mix of both peace and power, the ultimate symbol of Equestria's reputation for maintaining peace and harmony under the leadership of Princess Celestia.

But for a Special Alicorn, it was nothing but another kingdom to protect throughout all time and eternity... He ran his hooves through his dark grey mane, he was getting tired of his job, running throughout time to save everyone... he did nothing but save lives, every day, every minute... but no one knew at all... they just lived their daily lives without any knowledge that he was their savior, and every day... life got more light, but it started to lose its color.

he sighed and just pictured what could possibly happen next, he has fought everything in history, and being a time traveler was not an easy task, he just hoped that he could strong, and take on what happens next.

He Was on the train to Canterlot. He was just staring off into the distance, hoping that whatever happened next would be easy, and give him a break! He had recently jumped into the future, and grabbed an Equestria History Book, and it explained that an attack on Equestria happened at about the time he jumped to. He had jumped about a week early, to see if he could investigate more into what happened, as far as the book explains... danger was about to happen... that would change the way Equestria thought of living for... something that made millions destroy all of Equestria, almost making ponies go mad!

Something he had not expected, or heard much of... but as far as he was aware of... it was Princess Celestia's Last Days in Power, This event in history was Celestia's last Day of life! He knew he now had to be cautious, but he couldn't be too cautious, He did not want to attract Extra attention. He had only worked in Canterlot once, in the Future, there were many more Palaces built, and they all had problems, whether it be an attack, a war, or even a Assassin. Each time he has saved them... but something he liked about the past, was that Princess Celestia always kept Her kingdom of her age in the BEST condition He has yet seen.

The History Book he read did mention though, that Celestia did not just die... she Vanished! Which made him even more curious, if someone was to be never heard from again. it had to be for a reason. right? especially someone like Celestia, if she has kept her kingdom in the best condition from all harm. Than Kidnapping her would not be easy. Something. happened.

All the sudden, The Stallion with the Snack cart walked by, and tripped on the pony in front of him, spilling all the snacks and goodies all over his Apple Red coat, Than, on top of that "We have arrived at the Canterlot Station!" he quickly grabbed his items and ran off, using a quick spell to clean his Apple Red Coat, sure. he could have easily teleported into Canterlot. With his ability to time travel, he could also teleport long distances, in this case though.. he chose to just relax for once. something he did not usually get, something was ALWAYS on his mind! but right now, he just wanted to relax and sit back... let the train take him to his destination, plus, Time Travel usually left him tired and exhausted!

As he entered he started heading straight for the castle, the last time he worked for Celestia, in the past, she had told him "you are always welcome into Canterlot! Come and find me when you Arrive, Ill supply you with a room, Food, and Supplies if Needed" of course she said much more! but right now. he just focused on finding Celestia, he wasn't in the mood to immediately start investigating, he his last trip left him pretty tired! he had to stand in the middle of a battlefield, of bloodthirsty Ponies, and make Peace, Somehow... he pulled it off! but that was nothing but luck in his book. All he wanted was rest.

As he Entered the castle. Celestia was standing there, almost as if she was expecting him, when she saw him, her eyes widened, she was clearly happy to see him! She looked weary, as if she had not been sleeping or eating recently! "What's up with you? you look like you have a Pony Virus?" He claimed, as he walked in. "I... It is Good to see you... you came just in... in time..." she said, Very Whispery, as if staying awake was the Iron Pony Event Challenge in Equestria!

Concern automatically overtook him. "What's wrong?!" he exclaimed.

"A... A Plague has gone around... Its nothing serious... why have you come RedStar?"

"A book told me that the future starts on this date..."

Celestia looked worried, He didn't like where it was going. he immediately did what he promised not to... he read her mind and her memories with a spell. He Than understood that she was going through a serious Plague, one that apparently made Ponies want to Hate. Hate. Hate. He knew there wasnt much time, and it was killing him to see Celestia this way, but first! he needed to be an insider to know more...

The pieces soon started to fall together in place! In the book, it mentioned ponies trying to destroy Equestria from the inside, Using the ponies and turning them into Psycho Paths. He knew he did not have much time... and it was a matter of hours before something serious happened.

"I must have a room prepared, and some equipment, If i want to get to the bottom of things. Im going to have to be one of the victims to do so!" he exclaimed "Also, don't worry much about the crystal kingdom, I know its on your mind. But you must let twilight and her friends take care of the matter!"

"You... Promised you wouldn't read my Mind..." She said still whispery, but in a Teasing Voice, as if she knew he was going to break it. She slowly nodded to him giving him permission to a room. He already knew which room, due to reading her mind.

"Yes, but promises you can't keep are the best kind!" he teased back...

He instantly recalled another spell, and gave Celestia Most of his energy, Celestia seemed to start to return to her regular form, but still weary

"Thank you! Also, I ha-" She asked.

"Have a room upstairs that was just used by a pony named Rarity, I know! But along with being an insider, Ill need somepony to work with! your the ruler of the Kingdom, and I'm a Time Traveler, I do not wish to ask for too much of your time in this event, no offence, but Equestria needs you to rule them right now! and that is what youll do. Is there anyone that can help?"

There was a long pause... an awkward silence. He was about to read her mind again when she finally spoke,
"I do not know of many that can help you in this situation.. nor do I know much upon the situation myself.. But i think if anything, Luna would be the one to help you the most! She is.. Nocturnal, but I'm sure that with a bit of changes, and you being a Time Traveler, you have all the time in the world, you and her can help each other out! I do believe Luna has mentioned something to me before about this 'Plague' that will change the 'future' but you must not worry, In fact, you get some rest tonight... blend in with the croud.. do some undercover work, and Ill work with Princess Luna and get her to be here for you tonight!" her tone less weary, and now growing stronger, bolder, but yet much more kind the ever more!

"Will do Princess... is there anything else you would like me to do for you?"
"Yes..."
"What do you request of me?" the phrase almost shocking RedStar that the Princess was requesting something from him, of all the ponies in the world, he thought he would be the less likely to receive a 'special quest' from the Princess herself!
"I ask one thing. That should be obeyed no matter what the stake... from this point forward, No more reading my mind!" Still exercising the inside joke from the last time he saw her! RedStar couldn't help but laugh... even though many lives were resting upon his shoulders.. sometimes a pony like him needed a good laugh!
