Prologue
“Uh, Twilight? You have a gift that's for you,” Spike said.
“It’s from Discord…”
“Nope, not opening it, definitely not, you remember what happened last time, right?”
“Yeah, sure thing, but if it’s anything like last time shouldn’t you open it?”
“No way, not interested, besides my friends aren’t even here to,”- suddenly her friends appeared in the room before she could even complete her sentence, “-talk,” she said finishing it up. “Twilight? Why are we here exactly? One moment I was bucking apples on the farm and then poof, I’m here in this castle.”
“I don’t know for sure Applejack, but I’m pretty sure that it has something to do with this book given to me by Discord,” she said holding it up for them to see.
“Oh no, what’s it this time?” Fluttershy said very nervously.
“101 More Interesting Facts About Draconequi,” she said, “And it’s apparently written by Yaltolt Rocsidd A.K.A. Lord Altto Disc and Mister Allan,”
“That’s weird, he changed his name this time, why?”
“I don’t know Rainbow Dash, but I’m sure that if we read we’ll find out.”
“Are you kidding me? After what happened last time you still want to read that?”
“Well yes, sort of, not really, look I don’t know what I want to do, okay?”
“Well I do!!!” Pinkie Pie said, “I want to eat marshmallows and stuff chocolate pie cake in my face and then take a nap and then eat even more marshmallows!!!”
“Pinkie Pie! There will be no marshmallows!!!”
“Ah,” she said sinking down on the ground slightly disappointed.
“Well what do you think will happen if we don’t read it?” Rarity said.
“Honestly I don’t really know what to expect…”
Spike suddenly gasped.
“What is it spike?”
“Well, I really can’t say,” he said.
“Just tell us!!!”
“Well my answer to your question was this: How about you losing all of your wings and horns? And now it looks like you don’t have them anymore.”
“WAIT, WHAT?” Rarity shouted going over to look herself in the mirror.
“Yeah, weird, right?” Spike said.
“Yeah, but what I find disturbing is that Discord or the book could somehow read your mind, but we’re still not opening this book, losing wings and horns, that’s nothing, he’s already done that before to all of us.”
“Yeah, but it’s starting to rain cats and dogs outside, literally,” Spike said opening the windows.
“Seen it.”
“There’s chocolate cotton candy clouds in the sky…”
“Seen it.”
“The day Monday has been eliminated from the calendar…”
“That’s a new one…”
“Houses are starting to turn upside down…”
“Seen it.”
“There’s ponies doing a random various musical number…”
“Seriously? That happens almost weekly here already.”
“Oh get on and read me already!!!” the book shouted.
“And apparently the book has a voice now…” Spike said.
“Don’t forget us!!!” the furniture shouted.
“Or me!!!” the windows said.
“No mail today!!!” the mailbox said.
“Okay!!! Fine!!! I’ll read it,” Twilight said sitting down and opening up to the first page where there was yet another photo of Discord as the author, yet this time instead of a fake cheesy mustache and a monocle he wore a sailor’s uniform instead.
She sighed, glanced down, and then started to read.
