//------------------------------// // Chapter Two: The Book // Story: The Unknown Fighters // by Unknown Light //------------------------------// I entered the castles royal library archives looking for a book that may explain the reason why I was having these dreams and why they felt so familiar but found nothing so I decided to go over to the Starswirl the Bearded wing and hopefully find something there that could explain. As I wondered the aisles going from shelf to shelf of scrolls and books for hours I had finally decided to give up and head back home and continue my studies when I got that feeling again like somepony was watching me. I turned around instantly to see a black figure duck be hind a bookshelf. "Hey you, stop right there," the figure wouldn't slow down going left and right through the shelves,"stop now!" I yelled out. Just when I thought I had them cornered, they vanished, no where to be found when all of a sudden the ground below me gave out. I landed with a loud thud, all I could hear was the echo from my landing and it was all dark. I wondered around the area where the hole in the floor gave light to reveal book shelves. It must be an entire library down hear, it doesn't look like its been walked in for years. I was still thinking of where that figure went when something gleamed from one of the bookshelves. I walked over to the shelf wary of my steps for who knows how many floors there are of this place and how much weight these floors can take. When I got to the book case I blew the dust away and it exploded into a huge dust cloud, coughing and waving the dust away. I had found the source of the light, it turned out to be a book that looked a lot like Twilights book but instead of gold it was silver and instead of a unicorn on the front it was just a normal pony. What bugged me most about this book was that it was practically new and not torn like the others. I flew up out of the hole and went to the center of the library to start reading this book. When I opened the book, faint blue lines started to glow around the pony symbol and so did the pages like it knew me or something. I started on a torn up page with sketchings of what I think is a sword with the word wolfgang under it, but I payed no mind to it. I started reading about these beings called the Unknown, it said of them being able to live hundreds of years, and being more advanced than us. "Unknown Light." a guard called out from behind me. "Yes what is it?" I replied still looking at the book. " Princess Celestia wishes to speak to you in the throne room immediately." "Ok and by the way there's a hole back in that section could you rope it off, don't want anypony falling in it." "Yes sir." With that said I put the book in my bag and headed straight to the throne room to see the princess. But still who was that back in the library and why were they be watching me.
