Description: Twilight Sparkle has to take on new duties as the new princess of Equestria. What happens when she is asked to decipher an old book given to her by princess Luna?
Twilight was looking though some scrolls, reading about the importance of a princess, when a castle guard knocked on the large door. "Come in," she said, opening the door with the magic of her horn. Her power seemed a lot stronger, now that she was a princess. It was also a bit hard for her to get used to. Often, she would find herself levitating things without realizing, and her new wings sometimes got in her way.
"This book was sent to you," said the guard, who bowed. "A book? From who?" Twilight questioned. "Princess Luna, your majesty," he said placing the book on the table. "This note came with it as well." "Oh?" Twilight took the note form the guard. "Thank you. Is that all?" "Yes, your majesty," said the guard. "Very well," said Twilight, heading back to her favorite chair. The guard remained by the door, motionless. "Umm... You can go now," said Twilight. The guard bowed again, then took his leave. Twilight sighed. "This princess thing is sure going to take some getting used to," she thought, unrolling the note. It read:
Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,
This book is about a world similar to the one you recently visited. We hope with your knowledge that you will be able to unlock its secrets and learn more about its content. Most importantly, however, we hope you can locate its entrance. We do not want another incident to happen like the takeover with Sunset Shimmer. Do not tell anyone else about what you find and keep the book under wraps.
Sincerely, Princess Luna
"That's it?" said Twilight, rereading the letter. "No warnings? What am I supposed to do when I'm done reading it?" She flipped it over. "It doesn't even explain why I have to keep everything a secret," Twilight frowned. "So, I can't tell my friends about this? Not even Spike?" She looked at the book and glanced it over. It was old and dusty, with a big "O" and "Z" on the front. "Princess Luna must have her reasons," Twilight thought. She opened the crinkled book to the first page and began to read.
"The land of Oz has never been civilized, for it is cut off from all the rest of the world. Therefore, Oz still has witches and wizards amongst them-" Tiny black dots began to sprinkle on the page. "What in Equestria?" Twilight tried to wipe the oozing ink off, but she only managed to smudge the page and get her hoof stuck. "Get off me!" She then began to wave her leg in a desperate attempt to remove the book. The black goo began to cover her and pull her into the book. "Help!" Twilight screamed, but it was too late. By the time the guards ran in Twilight was gone, and the book remained closed on the castle floor.
