As Celestia went to take a look at the old Prophesy Tome in the Everfree Castle, she pondered why it has been bugging her lately. She keeps reliving that day, lately. So much potential, just like Twilight. But, she took it in a whole different direction.
She was still preoccupied when she got to the lonely structure. Actually, that's probably why she did't notice the figure following her. She had no problems getting to the old Library, though.
When she got there, she saw the book waiting for her. Strange. I didn't know the 'Invisible Servant' spell was still active. I'll have look into that later. As she opened it however, something fell out. It looked like a page from a book much larger than the one in her hoof. And nearly twice as old, judging from the preservation spell.
As unsuspecting and curious as she was, she picked it it up, and unfolded it. Inside was warning from a long forgotten enemy. As she read the faded ink, her heart rate sped up. Her breathing hitched. I need to warn Twilight!
I will not fail! I shall go and be quiet, as you have so kindly asked of me. You'll know when I return. Thy students are always my favorites, the look in their eyes when they realize who I am. Why, I remember one of them, Sunset, was it? Why, she tried to seduce me. Me! Sadly, she failed. She was fun. Back to the task, though. I don't make promises I can't keep, so I shall pay thee a visit. Perchance, thy precious Sun will bleed. As a signal that my time of leaveh is over? What do you think, my High and Mighty Princess?

P.S. I love the way your face looks when you panic. As such, I think I might actually get to know the next of your students I meet. Why do you get so few students? You've had a grand total of three in the past Century!

"Spike! Do you know where that book on 'Ponified Anomalies and the Proper Response in an Encounter,' is?"
Author's Note
If anypony can give me suggestions on what to lengthen the chapter with, go right ahead. PM's only, for those who might want to help out. I need all the help I can get. Not to say I won't be picky. If I wasn't picky, my already sucky authorism will plummet in quality. Thanks.
