A/N: Greetings Fillys and Gentlecolts! Sir Scribe reporting in with another installment. Over the past few days, I was debating with myself over if I should continue this. Well, I think I will. Might as well continue what I started. I planned for this to be a bit long with a major plot twist, but I think I will hold off on it. I will say this: The Summer Sun Celebration is no longer a peaceful event. This will be fun.

Pinkie: PARRRRTTTYYYY!

Me: Ow, why?

Pinkie: It's been 16 days since you first started!

Me: And you're celebrating?

Pinkie: Well duh!

Me: Fair enough. Anyway, I don't own MLP. All rights go to Lauren Faust and HASBRO.

Pinkie: Ooh, what's this?

Me: DON'T TOUCH THAT! THAT'S A PRICELESS ARTIFACT!

*glass smashes*

Me: I'm gonna go cry over there


Day 3:

I was getting tired of searching. I looked through every single book in Twilight's library and found nothing that would help me. I searched through everything from classic literature to Pony Folklore with no luck. There was some luck with the Alicorn Amulet a few book towers ago, but that was the only break. I sipped more tea as I searched through another history book. "Spike, are you sure you don't have it?"

Spike poked his head from downstairs. "Nope. Nothing on somepony named Silverstar. Are you sure he is a real pony?"

I sighed. "I don't need to know if he is real or not. I need to know if his name appears. I've heard that somepony named Silverstar was in the Equestrian civil war waayy back in the days of Celestia. I think it's a real legend," I said.

Spike groaned. "If you want the information, why not talk to Princess Celestia? Maybe she could help."

I hung my head in defeat. I peered over the ledge to see Spike."Don't you understand? Princess Celestia and Princess Luna have faint memories of their past. Celestia's biography stated that she has little memory of her own parents. She isn't sure if she ever had any parents in the first place." I went back to my book.

"That makes two of us," Spike said.

I looked back over the ledge. "What do you mean? You do have parents, right?"

Spike shrugged. "I wanna know, but I can't find them. Twilight was the one who hatched me for her entrance exam. To me, Twilight is my mother. Other than her, I don't know if I even have a family."

My heart broke. "Oh Spike. I-I'm sorry."

Spike chuckled. "It's OK. Besides, I like having Twilight as a mother. She is nice and kind, except for the times when I screwed up and she got mad at me. One time, I thought she was going to replace me with her owl."

I raised an eyebrow. "Anyway, Silverstar was the name, right?"

I nodded. "Silverstar. The alicorn hero of the Civil War between the ponies and draconicus clans. I've heard that Silverstar was a master in the art of magic. Legend says that he could perfect a Time Stop spell without difficulty. Star Swirl the Bearded was even rumored to be a fan of the alicorn. I wonder if the legend is true."

Spike's voice rang out. "Well, the Equestrian Civil War is real, but I've never heard of Silverstar."

"Well, I'm hoping there is something we can use. I really think I can do this!"

I summoned three more books to me. Still nothing with the name Silverstar. I was beginning to lose all hope when I was blinded with a bright light. "Spike, where are you?"

"Here! What's going on?!"

I wish I knew. I felt myself slip. All of a sudden, the light died down. I looked around, and I was in the throne room of Princess Celestia and Luna. They both looked a bit upset at me. I crumbled to the floor in a sorry effort to bow. "Scribe! Explain to us why you are trying to learn about Equestria's darkest legend!" Celestia boomed.

My eyes widened. 'Darkest?' I stood up. "Your Highnesses, I had no idea Silverstar was a dark legend."

"Only the darkest," Luna stated. "Silverstar was known as Silverstar the Wicked. He pledged to only fight in the Civil War to wipe out the draconicus race."

The hairs on the back of my neck rose. "But wasn't that what the alicorns of the past wanted?"

Celestia shook her head. "Silverstar the Wicked wanted to commit genocide on the battlefield. To destroy every last draconicus on the face of the planet. Silverstar the Wicked is the reason why revenge can turn a golden heart to ash. The Alicorn Empire only wanted to keep the draconicus armies at bay until a reasonable negotiation was drafted. That included wiping out their armies," Celestia said.

"Discord was the last to be spared from Silverstar. He was defeated by the combined forces of both alicorns and draconicus's. Silverstar's defeat was what ended the Equestrian Civil War. He was a disgrace to the name of peace," Luna said.

I bowed my head. 'Silverstar was evil? It can't be. I've been chasing a wicked alicorn since day 1!' I looked up. "Your Highnesses, I speak the truth. I had no idea what dark past Silverstar had. I only saw him as a hero. He protected Equestria, right?"

"Before the war," Luna said. "I've read that Silverstar was once a real hero. When the world was still in the process of creation, dark magic took physical forms and attempted to destroy Equestria. Silverstar was one of the heroes responsible for destroying that magic."

I perked up a little. "The war changed him, but I think I can change that. For so many years, I've been searching for the right information to make Silverstar come alive in my books. His legend was what inspired me to continue. I've read his name in every battle of the war, including the casualty list in the final battle. The battle that followed peace. I assumed he won the war."

Celestia stepped down from her throne. "You had the right idea. He was a hero. But when the war hit close to home, his heart became black and cold. He swore revenge, and he almost got it. He had to be stopped. Revenge has no room in a pure heart."

I nodded. "I can change the legend. His dark past can create a better future. Allow me to rewrite the legend. Allow me to teach that a cold heart can be warmed up."

Celestia looked back at Luna. Luna nodded and turned to me. "You have our blessing. Rewrite the dark legend of Silverstar the Wicked. Make him Silverstar the Great."

"The least you can do for us."

I nodded. "Silverstar. He was a friend of mine when I was young. I believe our parents used to bring him over so he could foalsit us. Although, I think it was Silverstar."

"Maybe for you, dear sister, but I remember a two earth ponies foalsitting me. Besides, you had a heard for Silverstar," Luna said.

"Don't be silly Luna, he was older than me."

"Didn't stop you from writing about him in your diary."

Celestia chuckled nervously. She looked at me and Luna. Luna was smiling at her sister. "Dear sister, we may need to talk about keeping personal information from the public," she said.

"Strange, you didn't deny writing about him."

"LUNA!"

I held back a chuckle. "You are free to go Scribe," Celestia said.

I nodded. I turned to walk out the throne room, but somepony stopped me. I turned and there was Luna with several books stacked behind her. "Pardon me, sir Scribe, but could you sign these?"

I looked over at the books. Yup, they were mine. She levitated a quill and an ink case at me. I smiled as I signed the books.

Who knew a princess liked my books?


A/N: Well, another chapter. I completely forgot that I updated Dark Vengeance earlier today. I was about to start another chapter before I remembered. Anyway, if you haven't read Dark Vengeance, go check it out. I'm gonna try to update every so often. I just have to be writing something to occupy myself. Hehe, weird. Anyway, have a great day/afternoon/night. Flutter On!
