Author's Notes:

Originally this chapter was gonna be longer but I didn't think it would work since I may have incorporated a song. Hint hint.

Twilight walked the streets of the Crystal Empire on her way to the library. By now, she knew her way around after the two previous disasters in the Empire. "Finally, I can actually go to the library just to read! I wonder how many different sections they have. Maybe they'll have books about the Empire written from over 100 years ago! That's what I'll read first! History books! I can only imagine what Rainbow Dash would say if she was here!"

"I would say you're being totally lame, egghead,"

Twilight looked up, only to see Rainbow Dash right above her.

"Rainbow Dash! How did you get here?"

"I was flying over the city and I was completing my 500th lap. I was gonna take a break before starting my 501st. Also, why did it take you this long to get here?"

"Well, Rainbow Dash, some ponies walk at a normal pace and their special talent isn't flying fast. Plus, I had to go behind buildings so I didn't have everypony in the empire crowding around me."

"I still it's lame you're reading history books. We're on vacation!"

"It’s fine. I've wasted enough time arguing with you about this. Besides, don't you have to practice for beating Lightning Dust? You can clear a sky of clouds in 10 seconds flat. I bet Lightning can clear it in 5,"

"Oh yeah? Well, watch this!"

Rainbow Dash zoomed through the sky and busted every cloud in the sky in 5 seconds.

"Told you I could clear the sky in 5 seconds flat!"

She looked at Twilight and saw how poofy her mane was as well as the annoyed look on her face.

"Oh your... your mane, I'll fix that right up!"

She pulled a cloud out of the sky and jumped on it.

"There! All better!"

"Okay, I've heard of Deja vu but this is just crazy!"

She giggled at the memory of when she first came to Ponyville.

"Anyway, gotta run, see you later egghead!"

Twilight looked up at her dripping wet mane.

"Seriously! You could have at least tried to dry it!"She groaned and summoned a hair dryer.

10 minutes later

Twilight was walking the vast halls of the Crystal Library when she heard a noise. She turned around and saw that a book had fallen off a shelf. As she picked up the book she looked at the title.

"Celestial Secrets? What does that even mean?" As she searched for the author's name, she noticed a lock on the book. She decided to ask the librarian about why it was locked and what it was about. "Excuse me, ma'am. What's with this book? I haven't heard of it and for some reason, it's locked. Do you know how to unlock it, or, at least tell me what it's about?"

The librarian looked at the cover.

"I don't believe I've seen it before either. I'll see what it's about and if you can unlock it,"

"Thank you, ma'am,"

Soon after, the librarian came back.

"Of all the books I've come across, this one is the strangest. It's nowhere in any of the library's records. But, I did ask a few ponies if they knew anything about it,"

"And?"

"Somepony does. She seemed a bit nervous when I asked her so, be careful. She's over there, by the old scrolls,"

"Thank you,"

"You're welcome,"

Twilight walked over to the mare.She had a grey goat and green hair and eyes. She tapped her on the shoulder. She rapidly turned around and hissed at her.

"What do you want?!"

Twilight repelled back her hoof. "Um, hi. The librarian told me you knew something about this book?"

The mare's expression changed. Her lips formed into a grin.

"Oh, is that all? Well then, I can only tell you if I'm sure you're the one."

"The one?"

"Only certain ponies are allowed to get this knowledge. But, that hasn't stopped some from finding out the truth. "

"The truth about what?"

"Themselves," she answered.

Just then, another mare ran over to them.

"Akari! What are you doing?! We have to go!"

"Azari you don't understand! It's her!"

"I understand completely! That's why we have to leave!"

"Azari! You're crazy! You know what she told us to do!"

Azari gasped."We have to go. Now."

Before the mares left Akari spoke up.

"Everything you know will change! Every lie you were told will be revealed! Celestia's kingdom will fall and a new order shall arise! "

"What are you saying? What lies?! Who is she?"Twilight asked but the mares had already left.
