Chapter 4

'Ball time'

Celestia sat on the front table in the ball room, Luna sat to her left with Twilight Sparkle to her right. Tonight wasn't an important night but Luna was still expected to attend. All was going well the guest were mingling happily, the food was, as always, superbly cooked, and Twilight was with her, Celestia was happy, and she could tell Luna was as well, dispute her attitude towards balls.

" Umm, Princesses, may I ask a question?" Twilight asked awkwardly.

"Oh course Twilight" Celestia replied.

"It's about your son"

"Umm..." Celestia looked to her sister for approval, Luna nods.

"Go on" Celestia said almost sadly to Twilight

"What was he like?"

"He was, uh, I don't know how to describe him without sounding like a bias parent." Celestia said "Luna how would you describe him?"

"He was adventurous. He was confident. He said what he meant and meant what he said. He was curious as well, always look for things, asking why thing were as they were. If he was still around, I would hope he wouldn't have changed. He was everything we wanted and more." Luna said.

" How old should he be now?" Twilight asked

"1001 years old yesterday" Luna replied.

"Did he ever speak?"

"He was a baby, he picked up a few words, mom, mommy, Celestia, Luna, but he didn't really speak that much, he laughed a lot though. Can we end this for the moment I'm starting to feell sad again"

"Oh, sorry princess"

Outside the palace, near the skylight:

"Why am I here? The shadows haven't been seen anywhere near here Lunas return, The aliens won't arrive for a few more years. But still I feel something's wrong." The pacing australian pony thought aloud.

" Hey! What are you doing here?" A fully armoured guard called from a few feet away, pointing his spear at the cloaked figure.

"Settle down mate, I ain't here to cause trouble. I'm just on the look out for some, well umm, I don't know what to call 'em but they may be here"

"Hey! What are you doing here?" The guard repeated.

" Ahh piss, library stalker" The pony exclaimed loudly, before running to the edge of the roof. The 'library stalker' slowly followed.

When at the edge the pony stood on his hind legs and jumped off.

" Look out bellow!" He shouted as he fell. He landed with a solid thump on the ground and a pump can be heard depressurising.

"You there, stop!" A guard called getting a offensive stance.

"Yeah just a moment mate" The pony said looking up. A monent later he step to the side, just as set of armour crashed to the floor.

All the ruckus brought some curios guests to sceen, two of which were a pair of rather important Alicorns.

"Sorry mate" the intruder said looking down at his fore hoofs.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" another gaurd said.

"Well as for who I am, only two people here can answer that, and I'm not either of them. What was I doing here, the same thing as you, protecting this lot" he said as he points to the now rather big crowded to one side

" Your colleage there" points to armoured skeleton.

"Was killed by, well what I call, a library stalker, strange entity looks like shadow, lives in wood, hatches when it's disturbed, like to make books, rather short life span, luckily"

"Why should we believe you?" the gaurds said in unison, then, even though it was hard to tell through night and helmets, they blushed.

" You don't have to, I just need to convince two certain people"

"Take your hood off" a different voice said. Every one looked at Celestia, who unturned was looking at Luna, who was staring strait at the cloaked figure.

"Not unless you use manners princess"

"Please take your hood off" Luna asked again, with manners and a more commanding voice.

"Thats better" he said taking his hood off.

Celestia piped up,

" See, Unicorn, told you"

"That's not a horn princess" Twilight stated gently, confused but gently.

" Right you are Miss Sparkle, but it still does the same thing" he said as the antenna looking device comming out of his forehead started glowing.

"See watch" he said as he dissapered.

Celestia felt something change in her emotions, she could remember understanding him, but now she wasnt sure. Someone was tapering her emotions.
