"This is as far as I go." "Thank you." Sensory got off the carriage. "Well it's a book with dimensions of about 6 inches by 4 inches by 3 inches. It should have a light gray cover. It's not exactly new either, so expect some mold or water damage." Sensory started trotting off in the direction of the castle. "If we keep this pace we'll be there in about an hour and a half." They arrived at a small hill overlooking the fortress. "Get down." Sensory pulls Lunar down. "We're not the only ones here. I can sense some emotion coming from the fort... It's greed. Looters probably." Her horn glows violet, as do her eyes. "Ok, I just cast a vision spell. I have an idea of where they are. But they're packing heavy magic power, so let's try to be discreet as possible."
"Hey Mystic.i. gonna look for the other half of the book okay?you stay here.i will be back in less than an hour." *Her horn glowed and then in a flash she disappeared.she ended up teleporting near sensory and Lunar and she quickly hid in the bushes and silently crept along to the looters while casting an invisibility spell while she still hid in the bushes.she was extremely close to the looters and out the corner of her eye she spotted Lunar and Sensory up the hill* "damn.guess this is a race then." *she waited for one of them to get closer so she can wear the armor they were wearing*
Sensory approached a blind spot in the formation of looters. There was a medium sized hole in the wall. She signaled Lunar to move up. "There's a guard around the corner. "I'll use my magic to take control of his emotions in order to distract him. You go around him."
Azure then approached a corner guard and then she crept up and then put the looter into a choke hold while falling back into cover after a few seconds the looter stopped breathing and Azure sighed "thiss guy put up quite a fight". She looked st 5he opening and crept in...like a ninja
"Hold. I'm sensing someone else. Their aura is horrible. Reeks of darkness and death. They may be a threat to the mission, so try and avoid them if possible." Sensory rounded the corner. A guard spotted her, and was about to tell to warn the others. She quickly used her magic to fill him with an overwhelming love for Sensory. She didn't like making random stallions fall for her, but it was the best way to persuade them. "Come closer." She said. Lovestruck, he complied. "Take off your armor for me." He did so, and once he was done, she struck him with her hoof on a pressure point, causing him to fall unconscious, and reversing the effects. "This armor is too big for me, maybe it will fit you?" She whispered to Lunar.
The armor started glowing a vibrant blue and then started levitating towards some bushes were Azure got up and looked at it "I think this might fit me." She tries on the armor but it's too big for her of curse,but her horn glows again and the armor shrinks enough that it matches Azure's size "there that's better." Azure then looked up and noticed Sensory and Lunar but she frankly didn't care.once you get spotted you might as well find a way out or just give up trying to hide.
Mystic looked around and sat down on the side of a busy street, where she started to read what was in this half of the book.
"Hold on. What is this? I'm feeling sorrow coming from the deepest depths. It's overwhelming. Suffocating, even. I have a bad feeling about this."
Azure's horn glowed briefly "i can sense something coming from below." Azure looked at sensory and shrugged as she proceeded to enter the fortress "if you don't want to come i won't stop you"
-When Sensory and Azure descended the castle to the lowest level, they found a flooded room, all except for a pillar in the center that stuck one foot out of the water with a giant jade statue of the presumably late Princess Celestia facing the entrance, and a brown alicorn, who appeared to be praying to the statue-
"who's that?" Azure then tried to sneak up on the brown pony and when she got closer she realized that it looked like an alicorn with glasses "is that?..."
(Levi) *senses Azure behind me* *gets out of prayer stance* *materializes gunblades* Who are you, and what are you doing here?
"hey.put those down.you don't want to mess with the wrong pony.first,i'm AzureBlitz.you must be Levi.and i came here to look for the remains of a book until i felt the presence of somepony's magic.i followed it and it lead me to you.but honestly put those away before i blow those up"
"like i said.me and Sensory tracked you down here.and with my skills in spells i can see what other can't"
"Not to mention the negativity coming from you was giving me red flags." Sensory looked around. "This is the deepest level, is it not?"
"It's likely." Sensory heard footsteps coming upstairs. She summoned psychic blades, and positioned them around the door, ready to hit anyone. "In the event we get into a fight, don't use destructive magic. You could damage the books, and we don't know how stable this place is."
