As the got off the train the group was talking quietly as Sarah looked at the ground.  The ponies could tell something might be wrong with her since she was quiet the whole way here.  

AppleJack looked at Twilight. "I think something is mighty wrong with Sarah, she was mighty quiet all the way here." 

Twilight nods. "I noticed, she seemed quiet for a while now.  Maybe she knows something we don't." 

Spike shook his head not believing it. "No I doubt that. If she knew anything she would have told us or at least me, I am her brother after all." 

Rainbow dash flies close by them. "I say we just keep an eye on her still, just to make sure."

Fluttershy spoke softly. "I'm sure she is ok." 

Twilight shrugs. "Lets just get to the Library." 

The group nods and soon head to the library. It was blue and had griffon statues on the outside.  When they get inside they see it was three stories tall with lot of book. Twilight smiles as she sees all of them. "I wonder where the spell could be." 

Rarity looks around. "There are so many, it could be any one dear." 

Pinkie pie smiled. "We can do it everypony lets start looking." 

They all split up and start searching. Sarah took a deep breath and went over to a bookshelf far from the others. "I'm sorry everypony but I must do as my master tells me." A tear fell from her eye as she started to search that bookshelf for the right spell. She started taking the books one by one and looking at the covers trying to see if they were the one her master had told her on one of her.

Twilight had already gone through a big pile of books and yelled out to her friends to see if they found anything. "Did you guys find anything." 

Fluttershy shook her head as she had a book on tiny ewes in her hooves. "No."

Rarity shook her head. "Sorry darling, I found nothing of the sort." She flipped though a book on crystal empires past fashion trends. 

Pinkie pie gasped and bounced up a down. "I found a book."  

Twilight looked stunned surprised that Pinkie pie found the book that might help. "Really let me see." 

She handed Twilight the brown covered book with gold trim. Twilight frowned as she read the cover. "101 ways to throw a crystal themed party. Pinkie this isn't the book I need." 

Pinkie snatched the book back from her. "No but think of the possibilities Twilight. Think of all the crystal parties we can have back at Ponyville and all the fun. " She flipped to a page with a colorful picture of a goody bag full of things like crystal berries and Crystal Empire berry pie. "Look at the goody bags Twilight. The goody bags!" 

Twilight sighed. "It seems nice Pinkie, now lets get back to searching." 

Spike was searching hard for the book as he soon got over to Sarah as she was searching. "Hey Sarah, find anything yet." 

Sarah shook her head. "Not yet Spike..." 

He looked at her. "Sarah is there anything wrong. You seem kind of quiet, is there anything you need." 

Sarah shook her head again holding back her tears. She so desperately wanted to tell him. "No Spike, I'm fine don't worry. " When she finished speaking she saw that Spike was giving her a hug. 

He smiled. "I'm here if you need me."  

She nods. "I..know.." After they spoke Spike went back to searching. Sarah spoke softly to herself. "I...I'm sorry Spike..." She quickly wiped a tear from her eye as she found a small black book.  She opened it to the place it was bookmarked. The title said Return to greatness. She knew what this spell would do when Twilight would preform it. She looked around on the bookshelf and saw the magical quill Sombra had hidden for her, it had the power to change any word. She moved it over the title and changed it to The get rid of crystals spell.   She shut the book, putting back the quill where she got it. "I found it." 

Twilight came running over, she scan the page quickly. To her it looked like it was right.  "This seems like it could work. Lets go to the castle and try it out." 

Fluttershy smiled at Sarah. "Good job. "

The group congratulated Sarah on her find.  They all seemed so proud of her. It was something that no pony had ever felt towards her. She just smiled back at them, telling them it was just luck and with that they went off to the gigantic beautiful crystal castle. After several minutes they arrived and waiting for them was a white unicorn with a  sapphire blue mane with
cerulean and dark  blue stripes. He was standing by a pink alicorn with a dark violet with  rose and pale gold streaks mane. The unicorn smiled. "Twilly."

Twilight smiled back. "Shining Armor! Cadance!" Twilight ran up to them and her and Cadence started to a sing song dance thing.  "Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake! Clap your hooves and do a little shake!"  

Sarah smiled thinking that it was cute. 

Shining Armor gave Twilight a hug. "Its good to see you. Did you find the spell?" 

She nods and smiles, holding up the book. "Yeah Sarah found it." 

Shining Armor  and Cadance looked at Sarah. "I don't beleive we have met. I'm Cadance and this is my husband Shining Armor." Cadance said with a smile. 

Sarah smiles. "Its nice to meet you both. I'm Spike's sister." 

They nod and smile. "Well lets get to the spell." Shining armor said.

Twilight nods as she opens the book and reads the spell aloud. "In times of hardship and when its the end of rule. All this time its been so cruel.  I cast this spell to correct a wrongful fall, its time to become whole once and for all. " As soon the spell started the sky grew dark. 

Rainbow dash looked at Twilight. "Is this suppose to happen..." 

Twilight frowned. "I don't know. Sarah are you sure this is the right spell..." 

As sky grew more dark and shadows soon started to come closer to them and the sound of evil cackling could be heard. 
Sarah looked at the group. "It is the right spell."  The shadows started to form into something pony shaped. 

Spike looked at Sarah. "Sarah whats going on. You said this is the right spell." 

There was more cackling as King Sombra's full shape was complete.  He smiled. "Its time to take back my empire." 

Everypony but Sarah gasped. "Sombra." They all said in shock.

Sarah whispered quietly so nopony could hear. "Master..."
