"Did you have a brother?" - Asked twilight to her teacher, really confused, because she had never heard anything like that from his teacher, which was not different from the rest that were equally puzzled.
"Yes,... his name is cosmos " - said the princess, by shining the black alicorn in armor image "he is my older brother and is also the one who teach luna and me all about of magic" - told them surprising everyponi who were with her in the secret passage, who was not only her brother but also his teacher.
"An' then ah guess he was th' one who made th' stars come out, o' is ah wrong princess?" - said the brown stallion accompanied the bearers of the Elements of Harmony.
"You assume well, my little pony" - she smiled while making shine another stained glass- "happened many years ago, when equestria was ruled by two great tyrants" she said, showing a stained glass window was divided into 2 parts showing two completely different beings - "one was the master of chaos discord, who ruled bringing unhappiness and disharmony their half of equestria " - said noting what appeared a chimera with horse face, body dragon, lion and eagle claws and another series of characteristics of other various animals.
"If I remember correctly he was defeated by you and the princess moon using the elements of harmony, as the ancient equestrian history book" - said the lavender unicorn with his hoof on his chin, remembering the subject of their studies.
"Exactly, and all thanks to discord who was so confident in his power, did not bother to try to stop, but did not know how powerful they were the elements," she said with some happiness remembering those moments that fought side to side with their sister, "and the other was law master of enforcement and purity" - said noting the image of a huge winged unicorn, with the white coat and mane, eyes of a dull white, making him look blind, but without any kind of cutie mark.
"He was a alicorn?" - asking rarity to see the white winged unicorn image that seemed more a image an friendliest old that of a tyrant.
"No, it was a creature with enormous power who took that appearance for their convenience" - said with a serious look, and anger in his voice- "I never saw the true shape in person, but my brother cosmos said it was did not want re seeing is their life "
"But why a alicorn?" twilight asking confused.
"to maintain the hierarchy, believing if they saw it as something unattainable never try to face it, and thus never had any interruption in its pure and orderly kingdom" she answered
"Excuse me eff'n ah interrupp princess, but does not soun' so bad eff'n th' master of th' o'der an' purity is not it almost th' same th' elements of harmony ?" - applejack doubting asking what kind of enemy can be if its power is of the order.
"No applejack, harmony is only achieved when chaos and order coexist with each other, complementing not confronting or dominate over each other" - twilight answered quickly correcting the misconception of the harmony of her farmer friend.
"Very true twilight sparkle" said to her faithful student, smiling "and thanks to that we could defeat discord, already there was nothing that could stop law to dominate all equestria with theur absolute order, therefore he broughtterrible consequences" said, so it was interrupted once more time.
"And what would be that?" - asking the energy pony, pinkie pie who jumped instead of staying still.
"I will show you" - told her in an instant golden glow of her horn, teleported a plant that stood in the midst of all the ponies, "now will see" - and then his eyes went white, and his horn came a pure white light, that felt like a flash, which touch the plant and at the beginning nothing happened, except that the plant had been completely cleaned of any dust or blemish, but then gradually plant is the leaves fell to they just stay dry and withered plant.
"Now I understand, when everything is too pure, life is not sustainable" - twilight inquired to see the results of the magic of the order fullness.
"That was the problem, but never cared law life itself, he just wanted everything to be perfect and orderly by making a regime that almost takes all equestria life" - told a stained glass window showing where law appeared surrounded by a dead land and ponies agonizing, "but my brother went to fight with all whose power could be compared with the element of harmony" - said going to another stained glass had two star black and one white, "the stars of balance, white star and black star "
"What are the stars of balance and as they may be as powerful as the elements of harmony?" - Rainbow dash asking puzzled for that there is as strong as the elements.
"That's something that I myself do not know, only know that they were created with the elements of harmony" said the princess of the sun, and then show an image where could see cosmos fighting with law, "but unfortunately, law not entrusted such as discord and before my brother could use the power of the stars, the black star broke a special charm to the star separated to never be repaired "- featured as he showed the black star broken into three parts.
"And how was it won? if do not mind me asking Your Majesty" fluttershy asked nervously.
"Were three little ponies that were friends of my brother, and some of his personal guard who could not leave and went to help him without him knowing" - told a stained glass window showing where there were three ponies of the three races each with a black Star piece-"they picked up the pieces of the black star and a miracle happened," she said moving to the next stained glass, cosmos together where his friends threw magic rays from 4 jewels, "the pieces of the black star took another color and guards of my brother could use it along with the white star and law locked in a group of stars, to achieve separation of their power and could never hurt a ponys again "- said the stained glass showing where could see the night sky where could only see those stars "after those constellations were called the horse, the pegasus and the Unicorn"
"That explains those constellations, but what about the rest of the stars?" finally asked rarity that was intrigued with the story.
"That was the worst thing that could have happened" - said sadly as stained glass showed that these constellations launched lightning to the ground -"in a final act of revenge with their power law built a door to the tartarus releasing an army of 10,000 demons that were to destroy all life in equestria "- said letting baffled ponys were surprised at how ear" so to save all my brother use his power with that of the stars of the balance to lock up all demons in different stars making this were visible to all ponies and to know if they are still locked up " term counting, surprising everypony, that stars were locked up demons.
"That means that the spiders found in ponyville was one of those ten thousand demons!" - exclaimed zap by connecting the dots through the story.
"Exactly and in order to keep the demons locked up, the three personal guards of my brother used their pieces of the black star becoming selfto statues, serving as a link between heaven and earth, that law and his army of demons could not escape never from heaven "- she said, showing a stained glass window where you could see the statues of the respective heroes.
"Now I remember the firsts stars to disappear last night were the constellation of horse, unicorn and pegasus that means law has escaped!" twilight concluded after realizing how serious the situation was.
"That's just the problem, and now my brother is not here to stop it" - said celestia with a great nostalgic feeling.
"I was e been wondering it How is it possible that only know this now? What he did was very important, it should be in the equestrian history books or at least to be here now," asked the unicorn lavender to their teacher who under look with great sadness.
"It was for at happened to luna, when it became nightmare moon, he tried to facing, but unfortunately he could’t hurt her, he loved her too much to do and that's when I had to use the elements to save my brother and sister "- said taking a very sad air" because that he banished self from equestria, for don’t stop luna then or prevent come to that "- said about to drop a tear, but then took a more seriousair - "before going erase all traces of history about he, for anypony to see her shame and asked me don’t to tell his story because equestria he don’t need a hero could not save even his sister ... and I decided to respect his desire "- told them already quiet, yet sad" now understand your mission? "
"Oh yes! So our mission is to find the stars of balance or is it princess?" - asking the ecstatic pegasus wiht rainbow maned color, who with his attitude completely change the tense atmosphere.
"Yo' don’t believe it'd be better t'leave thet job t'th' guards o' th' princesses same miss, af'er all is th' thin's of his brother" asked ironically applejack's cousin, but was surprised to see the look of celestia.
"Unfortunately can not be that way" - she said taking by surprise the farmer.
"Whut in tarnation does yo' mean yer majesty?"
"Luna and I are using our magic to prevent th creatures escape of the sky, each taking turns, but not last long" - and with that understood because it was not present the moon princess, "and most of the holes are trapping the demons that escaped already "- and with that also understood that there were many guards-" this is something that no one else can make you guys "
"ah unnerstan' thet yer majesty, but all ah ax is thet at least one o' two guard he'p, this hyar is too dangerous fo' 6 mares, so ah will too" finished asking zap, letting him know how difficult the situation.
"But zap yo' reckon about golden apple! Whut in tarnation does yo' reckon'd make eff'n sumpin happens?" - Applejack complained of the decision of his cousin.
"¿¡¡¡An' yo' reckon Applebloom, big macintosh o' granny smif eff'n sumpin happened t'yo'!!!?" - he cryed everypony surprising "trimenjus mac an' granny smif felt already lost yo' once, does not let it happen agin" - whisper making their hat will produce a shadow that covered his eyes.
"I can understand your request, but unfortunately did not leftover any guards, the only thing I can do now is to accompany a cadet and a student at my academy, that's all I can do to help, sorry" she apologized the princess fully understanding the concerns of earth pony -"now I passeth the map wiht instructions where the stars of balance" - passing told them a list indicating three different places Everfree forest- "and remember, equestria this is in yours hooves"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Outside the palace all were not only aware of the danger he was in equestria, but will also have to save time is very limited, but all still were downcast by the state of the princess during the whole explanation was very sad and almost defeated.
"They believe th' princess is fine?, she looked mo'e finished thet granny at th' end of th' heavy days of sales" commented applejack with worried look.
"Of course it's not right, jest imagine whut'd happen eff'n yo' had t'tell a lot of ponies a time whar yo' had t'throw home t'Applebloom an' big mac then also outside" her cousin making her imagine it and then lower the ears with some regret.
"Eff'n ah git it" - end up saying something decayed by previous thought.
"Now we must focus on is where we must go" - lavender unicorn said unrolling the map showing three different points-Everfree forest "temples of the stars? What exactly are they?" - asking after seeing the names of the places have to go.
"Are the temples built in honor of the heroes of equestria, Achilles, Hercules and Perseus who sacrificed to prevent escape demons" - said a shrill voice making the ponies turn around and saw a female baby green dragon with tiny winged-"I am surprised that the famous great student of Princess celestia does not know neither that" - said very smugly by making annoy someponys.
"either you knew you a minute ago, when we got the letter" - said a unicorn stallion accent as elegant as that of rarity, he had a scroll with a stick drawing in the sun, as cutie mark-"forgive his attitude , my name is dawn bright and a pleasure to know "- greeting the mustard colored unicorn with green hair arranged in 2, with short tail, blue glass glasses and a very serious look-" and she's jade is my assistant studies "- said presenting the female dragon, she had his arms crossed and angry face.

"I see she don’t like me very much" - said in a whisper twilight the new stallion and this just shrugged.
"has to do with an old friend of hers, is not something that I was want to get" told to understand the situation and just nodded Unicorn "by the way, said the cadet come soon" - said showing the letter he received from the princess.
"By the way my name is ..." but was quickly interrupted.
"Twilight sparkle, do not remember if I sat behind you in the advanced class of spells and we were classmates throughout the academy and work together in a project " - informed him, making him blush with shame for not remembering and seeing the rest would present spoke first- "rarity, applejack, Pinkamena diane pie, raimbow dash and flutthershy " - said wowing each said-"do not be surprised, therefore, that you are the bearers of the elements of Harmony, are quite famous" - he said with bored look adjusting his glasses.
"I think it's psychic" - pinkie whisper to applejack who just rolled her eyes at her friend occurrences.
"Then ah guess ah sh'd jest intrydooce mahse'f, mah name is zap apple a pleasure" - said waving force the intellectual making him shiver and he fell glasses-"Oops, sorry about that" he apologized and only got an annoyed look in response- "and when that soldier arrives" - said a little nervous about the uncomfortable situation.
"I am here sir!" - Said a stallion pegasus orange fur and blue hair was iron armor that covered her cutie mark-" cadet flash sentry sir!" - Was presented in a very militarized style.
"Oh, great another one of those" he said sarcastically cian pegaso after recall another encounter with real-guards "can not you relax? There are official or anything like that" he said, but is not expected to give him a happy sigh.
"Uf thanks, you know how relaxing it is to know that" – said already calmer the new stallion, "is that when you're cadet always have to be responding that way" - said more relaxed, taking off his helmet showing your hair without the crest, "now would be good to go we have to go soon to Everfree Forest, Princess celestia told me it was important to finish as soon as possible" said leading the group toward the train.
"This hyar will be an interestin' trip" - zap said after understanding the kind of group that was.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
The group was getting off the train with a moody cyan pegasus.
"And now tell me, why is it so important to go through your stuff first of all? have to save equestria now!" asking angry with the male apple.
"Believe me it is mighty impo'tant t'colleck mah thin's, eff'n we is to Evahfree yo' better be prepared fo' ev'rythin'," said leaving from the train station- "see yo' on th' edge of th' fo'ess in an hour, bess also carry baggage" - then told to go to collect his things.
And with that everyone went home to get his luggage for the trip, except for the two stallions and the she dragon of Canterlot were celestia student with his tree library.
"With this, and that oh That can be very useful," she said as he put several things in his saddlebag without noticing his companions.
"You think you may have realized that we are here" - wonder in whisper the pegasus who the unicorn shrugged simply uninterested until book fell on it.
"I think not" - said a little angry for being ignored both by the book as it now has a hat, then shook his head and pulling the book finally adjusted his glasses "equestria calling twilight" - as uselessly told she was taking her things.
"one would expect that to be the celestia student would be more attentive this" - whispered the baby dragon in a derogatory manner spike then saw he was surprised to see it.
"You're a dragon" - said surprised as he had never before seen another dragon and she blushed a little as he watched her so intently.
"Yes, my name is jade and could not watch me that way, it's uncomfortable," said embarrassed and then turned his face flushed and nervous scratching his neck as he realized what he was making.
"Sorry" - said already calm as stallions had a little laugh that none of the Dragons notice.
"Fine with this be enough!" - Exclaimed after putting everything you need in your saddlebag "you guys wath doing here? Going fast!" said rushed and the stallions just sighed-"you get caring the library spike!" and then sighed the dragon before the dragon who laugh whistle with false innocence to the annoying look of this.
"You also jade" - informed bright and he was to go to the lavender unicorn with pegasus guard in iron armor, before hearing the complaint of his studies assistant.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
After a while the ponies were all gathered in front of the Everfree forest frightening each with their own baggage except cadet guard was only a cadet armor.
"Well, it's now or never" - said twilight looking at the map, before entering, being followed by everypony- "as the map says the temple of the stars is much deeper in the forest that the ancient palace the princesses, so take a couple of hours to find them "- said making everyone understand how long would the trip.
"Let me see th' map Miss" - asking the brown stallion and when the student celestia staff handed it he scared of what he saw- "this muss be a joke!" - scaring scream everypony.
"What's the problem dude?" - Asked the guard pegasus after removing the shock produced by the scream.
"Whut in tarnation is mah problem?! Fry mah hide! This hyar temple passes through th' shadow clan territo'y" - he said showing his concern.
"And who are the shadow clan" - asking certain cyan pegasus who was puzzled.
"Is just a myth" - twilight said cryptically without worrying about what you said.
"Clear they is, mahth, ah mahse'f sar an' barely excaped them" - exclaimed the brown earth pony little angry.
"Probably just thought you saw them, it is impossible that exist" she said, keeping the discussion on the existence of the creature.
" Who will be the explaining that wath in tartation are those things" - he finally tired the farmer pony.
"The shadows clan are a legendary type of creature that can move in the shadows as if they were doors to another dimension, and as this is almost pure forest shadows they move freely around here" - said the lens unicorn finally looking to the celestiastudent- "and although it is believed that there are, there are plenty of sightings with which you can believe his existence, but no conclusive proof as it says it does not let you take pictures" - explained while walking making the pony lock of hair with different color.
"And so say that just had to be your imagination" - twilight sentenced last.
"Look miss, ah e been in this hyar fo'ess menny times an' knows ev'ry beast thet lives throughout th' fo'ess an' ah assure yo' thet whut ah sar is an animal thet was not registered in enny book 'cept of cryppozoology thar was whar ah c'd find this hyar thin' thet ah had foun' an' almost caught "- argument by thinking the unicorn wearing the discussion.
"Look, I understand what you mean, but I can not believe that a creature with the ability to move in the shadows like an alternate dimension to exist, at least not without strong evidence" - and when he finished his argument against them came a black humanoid feline creature came out of the shadows of a tree as they leave the water and made a strange growl that scared everypony.
"¡AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
"ah wonner how ah will be spendin' mah brother?" - Will ask the colt golden fur while eating dinner with his cousins.
"Do not wo'ry, he's wif mah sister an' t'other, sho'ly it's okay" - reassuring her cousin answered and smiled.
"Eff'n yer right, besides th' already spent a year in th' Evahfree befo'e, he probably knows how t'cope" -said calmer.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
"Take this!" - Zap said throwing a white nut sack to the ground that his saddlebag and it exploded in a strong flash to scare the feline humanoid did escape, "now yo' believe me" he said smugly but twilight did not come out of his stupor.
"What in the name of celestia WAS THAT?" - Would yell previously lived in fear.
"I recall those are chestnuts flash when burst produce a strong flash, but I heard they were very rare How do you get them?" - wonder dawn bright surprised to see so strange object.
"Stuff? Planted ah mahse'f, ah allus hoof it to dangerous places like th' Evahfree t'git sumpin an' among them thin's is these bootyes thet is mighty useful t'scare of almost ennythin'" he said and then stop to look at the yellow pegasus who hid behind her cousin "an' apparently someponies"
"I do not ask why, I ask about that monster that came out of the shadows!" - Twilight desperate cry.
"That monster is the shadow clan" - said flash finally put a hoof on his shoulder soothing.
"but that's ..." he said before being quiet for the unicorn hoof glasses.
"we just seen it" - he said cryptically making arguments attempts to die at that moment, "somehow I'm happy to see and yet very concerned" - so said it was difficult to know whether or not I was really excited .
"Hey, I was afraid to ask this, but how do you know so much about these things?" - ask the cyan pegasus, making everyone else is all face and simply shrugged.
"Everypony needs a hobby" - said with no hint of shame in saying that I like studying myths.
"Well, putting that aside we still need to delve into the forest and apparently within the territory of the ... ahg clan shadow" - end up saying with a little discomfort to accept that existence-"do you have more of those nuts?" - ask the farmer who nodded happily "takes each time they occur, but do not use them all soon, we may need more later" - and indicated he almost laughed but she did not realize that fact.
"Don't wo'ry about it" - said tranquilizing the laughter that he almost came.
"I wish this trip would not spend more incidents, but being the Everfree forest that would be a difficult request" - commented rarity swept more while in the woods.
"I know how we can make the trip more fun!" - Said strong pink pony and humming a rhythm until he started singing.
99 bottles of beer on the wall
99 bottles of beer!
If One of Those bottles
Should happen to fall
98 bottles of beer on the wall.
And everypony sigh at how long would the trip.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
After a few hours of listening to the song and the many repetitions and when I finish this, I take breathing for another and put a hoof in her mouth.
"Please I beg you to stop once, I do not support other 99 bottles more" - said bright dawn tired then do what everyone wanted to do-ponies "plus I think it found something" - said pointing to what appeared a lot of houses that were on the trees.
"You know, I have a very bad feeling about this place" - said the worried twilight to meet this village.
"An' it sh'd, on account o' this hyar this is th' shadow clan village" - zap and immediately said they were surrounded by members of the village who came out of the shadows and began to growl.
