Chapter 7: The Other Half of the Diary

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Meanwhile, inside Twilight's Library...

"There should be something that explains this sequence of events" said Twilight, as she's going through her different books "I mean, it's something very unusual."

"Now, Twilight," said Discord "That's exactly what I felt when I saw you with Flamina. In fact, I was worried. I thought you'll be gone just as what she's done to the 7th element."

Then, the whole group stared at him with confusion and familiarity.

"There's a seventh element?" shouted Pinkie.

"Well, of course there is!" said Discord. Then, he teleported to Twilight's side and said "Twilight, before you lived here, I own this place, see?" he said, lifting one of the bookshelves and showing a carved figure of himself. "And I read much of the seventh element." Then, he shuffled through her books, and found a secret button behind one of the books. He pushed it, and suddenly the whole bookshelf turned around to show them another bookshelf filled with only one big book.

"Now," said Discord while reading a book (just imagine that he made the book float while he's reading it) "page 630 says that there's a riddle written by an unknown sorcerer in his diary about the 7th element. It says here:

'…Of course, there's a way

To end her reign

The seventh stone

To give back the pain

The seventh stone

Brings back my loyalty

Gives light to the sun

And heals the moon

Revives the stars of crystal

And to bring her back to prison

Oh, may this live once more:

'Till I show it to my son'

"Nope, I don't get it" said Fluttershy.

"I have an idea" exclaimed Discord. "Turn to page 631" and he read the following words aloud:

"Now, you read my sentiment

Warn this to your children

Rip this page; put it in your journal

To give you guide to your brethren"

"Let's see…" said Twilight "Rip this page, put it in your journal. Rip this page; put it in your journal."

"Umm, excuse me Twilight" said Fluttershy "But I think you should rip it and then."

"Rip this page; put it in your journal. Rip this page; PUT IT IN YOUR JOURNAL! Haha! I know what to do" bellowed Twilight. "We should rip this page, and put it in the diary Princess Celestia gave us!"

"Umm, that's what I was supposed to say" said Fluttershy.

So, she ripped the page, merged it inside the journal, and read the following words out loud:

"...And after all these years

She wasn't trapped secured

And with a supervillain

Will Equestria endure?

No! Why? She already took one

She took Harmony away from me!

Why did she steal it? What have I done?

Now, lost is my loyalty.

And as it is unlocked, chaos starts

The sun turned to black, the moon covered with blood

Stars of crystal falling out of the sky

Yet, one of them endured and escaped to the mud.

And with kindness and laughter a war starts

Generosity and Honesty joined together

Loyalty is gone, but there's still one more

I seek Magic to end the reign of her.

Of course, there's a way

To end her reign

The seventh stone

To give her pain

The seventh stone

Brings back my loyalty

Gives light to the sun

And heals the moon

Revives the stars of crystal

And to bring her back to prison

Oh, may this live once more:

'Till I show it to my son"

"We did it! We know what will happen next" shouted Rarity.

"You know" said Applejack "The last part doesn't even rhyme."

"Doesn't matter" said Twilight. "What's important is that we can finally understand what the diary means."
