Equestria year 1001 of Celestias rain



In the town of Ponyville, in her tree-like library house, the purple unicorn called Twilight Sparkle had just finished her breakfast and was just about to read one of the many books she had, when all of a sudden:


-Twilight! Look what I've found!-said a young purple dragon rushing up to her. The young dragon just happens to be Spike, Twilight's nr.1 assistant.


The calling was so sudden that it scared Twilight and jumped up a bit and fell on the flour. After she got up she turned her attention to Spike who surprisingly was carrying some strange looking book under his arm. With a frown on her face she then spoke after a few seconds:


-Spike! You almost gave me a heart attack!-said the unicorn, in a rather angry tone.


-Sorry Twilight. I just wanted to show you something which I found.-replied the dragon.


-Oh, all right, just don't do that again.-said Twilight in a much more calm tone.-Now let's see what you've found.


The young dragon showed Twilight an unusual dark-purple book with a very weird symbol on it's cover. The symbol looked like some sort of pot without a bottom. Only the lines were drawn down and on the top, left, inner corner of the drawing a line seem to have curved, like a chameleon's tail.


Twilight used her levitation spell to pull to book closer to her and get a closer look at it. When she opened it she could tell amedietly that the book was really old, if not ancient. After examining the book carefully for one hole minute she finally spoke:


-Spike, where did you find this?-asked the unicorn with a confusion-I never knew I had this book.


-Me neither.-replied the purple dragon-I just found it lying on the flour on the balcony, outside.


-You found this in the balcony?-asked Twilight now even more confused


-Yeah. Right this morning.-Spike answered-I know, right? It's really weird to find a book outside.


-Did you take this somehow from the Starswirled the Bearded wing the last time we where there and just hid it away for some reason.-asked Twilight, in a suspicion tone narrowing one eye.


-No! I didn't take anything from there, I swear!-Spike answered, starting to panic a bit-Besides what would I do with a book like that?


-Hmm, good point.-said Twilight believing her assistants words.


After there little chat Twilight opened the book once again, this time trying to read it.As she did she found out that it's not possible. The problem was that the text was written in an unknown language with some very odd letters. After two minutes Twilight spoke once again:


-I can't make anything out of this.-said the purple unicorn in a disapointed tone-Although it has some really weird drawings it's not enough.


-Well…don't you have some sort of spell that can transleited for you?-asked Spike, trying to help Twilight figure out something.


-I think I do.-said the unicorn holding the book in front of her for a few seconds-But it'll take time for me to find it.


-Then I'll help you find!-exclaimed Spike proudly.


-Thanks Spike.-replied Twilight.


With that she put that old book on to her desk and she along with her assistant went of to search for the translecion spell. Little did they know that this unknown spell book was to change there view of the universe forever.
