	Long ago Equestria was ruled by two Alicorn sisters: one of the sun, the other for the moon.  Then one became jealous of the other's popularity and tried to become the only ruler and bring internal night.  But the one sister wasn't successful and was banished to the moon.  A century later another Alicorn is born, but things are not all well for this Alicorn.  A shadow demon begins to speak with the young Alicorn and slowly begins to corrupt her with its evil.  Seventeen years after the new alicorn's birth, the demon engulf her with its evil. With her new nightmarish form the young Alicorn lays waste to Canterlot. Before the demon and its new puppet could spread their destruction across the rest of Equestria, the princess of the sun fought back.  The demon was too strong for the princess and almost one the day.  Then the Captain of the royal guard, wielding the lost element, stopped the demon and its Alicorn puppet by freezing them in mystic crystal.  To this day the Alicorn and the demon are frozen in the crystal in an unknown location, no one remembers this day, for there are no records of this happening.

Twilight sat there, in the Canterlot library, pondering on what she read, and how this scroll came to be.  All she has as a clue to who wrote the scroll was an emblem on the bottom right hand corner.  It was flaming wooden round shield, Twilight checked a book full of the family crest of Equestria and couldn't find it within the book.  The scroll was a complete mystery, with no other option Twilight decided to do some research on the contents of the scroll.  After an hour of reading history book after history book, she finally found what she was looking for.  A lone history book, dating back to the time the scroll said the Alicorn lived.

"It seems like the book goes into more detail about what happens then the scroll does." Twilight said to no one in particular.

"Really, what does it say?" Spike asked.

"Well the book says many things that the scroll doesn't, like the names of each pony mentioned in the scroll.  The book also mentions what the demon called it self, as well as what happened to the crystal!" Twilight said with excitement.  "It say's here that the crystal was hidden somewhere in the castle to keep it safe from any evil doing ponies." Twilight said continuing reading the book.

"We should show the others this." Spike suggested.

"Spike, your right we should get the girls and find this secret room." Twilight said running out the library door in search of her friends.
