The Return of Nightmare Moon
Chapter 3
Previous ChapterNext ChapterChrysalis arrived at the library at about thirty minutes of walking. She slowly opened the door and stepped inside. She turned on the lights. Before her she saw thousands of books of every shape, size, and color. In the center of this vast library was a globe on a golden stand. She walked over to it, her hooves making a light thumping sound on the wooden floor. She carefully rotated it so as to see every detail of the circular map. She thought about which half of the planet that she wanted.
It would have to wait; she had to find a photo album or something so that she would not appear suspicious when she confronted Twilight’s friends. She looked around her and saw a purple book on a cherry coffee table. She opened it. On the inside was a collage of photos; each was labeled and dated. She looked pensively at one of them. A pink pony was popping up out of a large white cake. She was surrounded by several others; all wearing party hats. It was labeled, “Pinkie Pie’s birthday party.” Chrysalis decided that it was a good idea to search the rest of the album and memorize the names of all of Twilight’s friends.
After she had finished her eyes were strained from reading. She was starving and could not wait to feed off of the love of those five pathetic ponies. She continued to look around the library. She looked at pictures of Twilight’s family and friends that were set upon an oak shelf. She came upon a picture of Celestia laid into a solid silver frame, decorated with vines and flowers.
“That HAS got to go.” hissed Chrysalis (using Twilight’s voice of course). She threw the picture to the ground and she stomped on it; the glass made a crunching sound under her foot.
A thick roll of paper caught her eye. She walked over to the table that it was set on and gingerly unrolled it. It was MUCH longer than she had expected. The title said that it was her check list for the month. She found the date of the next day. At nine o’ clock she had to meet Pinkie Pie and Rarity at Carousel Boutique to plan a party for Fluttershy to celebrate the opening of her new pet sitting business. After that she had to help Applejack and Rainbow Dash build a new barn for Sweet Apple Acres at eleven thirty. She shuddered at the thought of manual labor, it disgusted her. Then she had to get together with all of them for dinner at six; with lots of studying in between each event.
“My, she lives a busy life.” said Chrysalis to herself.
Chrysalis looked at the clock, it was eleven. She needed to rest up for tomorrow. She walked slowly up the winding staircase to bed. She pulled the covers back and got in; it was soft and warm. She slept better than she had in months.
