When The Stars Fall

First story on this site!!

Twilight Sparkle stared out the window. The meteor shower had been going on for days. The worse part was a day ago some had started crashing into Equestria. No one had been hurt yet but it was only a matter of time.

The familiar swirl of magic popped up in front of her as the letter popped up. Twilight took hold of it before it dropped to the floor and unrolled it.

Dear Twilight,

As soon as you finished reading this scroll it will teleport you and your friends to the palace. We have urgent matters to discuss.

Your Teacher,

Celestia

Twilight felt the warm glow of magic as she was teleported to the royal castle.

BREAK BROUGHT TO YOU BY DISCORD. DISCORD GET OUT!

"I'm glad you are all here." Celestia said. She and Luna along with the mane five stood in the empty throne room.

"Luna! What happened! Why don't you stop this!" Rainbow Dash yelled. Luna shook her head sadly.

"I can't. I have never had any real control over the stars. This is far out of my control I'm afraid." Luna said ashamed.

"That leads to the matter we need to discuss. Follow me please." Celestia said regally trotting toward her sister's throne.

"Celestia? What could be.." The mane five gasped as Luna's throne slid aside to reveal a hidden room. They numbly followed her in along with a saddened Luna.

The whole place was a a mix of a treasure room and a library. Rarity and Twilight were over joyed but Celestia went for a small plain chest in the center. Carefully she levitated it over to them and broke the lock.

Inside was a ancient looking book bound with red leather. "That's it? A old book!" Rainbow yelled.

"Slow down Sugarcube." Applejack snapped. Celestia levitated the book out and flipped through the pages.

"This is not any book. It's a book of prophecies by Star Swirl himself." Luna said. Twilight gasped.

"Why was it hidden?" Twilight gasped. To her such a rare book should be put in a Library.

"It was never.." Luna was cut off by Celestia. Celestia flipped around the book so they could all see the writing.

When stars fall

And the night fails

Look to the south

Where the chimera king prevails

A deadly plan hatched

A hidden weapon reached

Death or life Equestria shall reap

Destroying the weapon difficult

The one who can stop it gone

A past self awakened

Before the stars are gone

And Equestria lies in rubble

"What does it mean by past self?" Rainbow snapped. Celestia levitated the book back into the chest and snapped it closed.

"We assume a time travel spell. Now hurry ponies. The fate of Equestria lies in your hooves." Celestia said. Luna nodded.
