Midnight nodded. "Alright, but I'm just waning you. You may be my stallionfriend,but she's basically been my mother my entire life. She means the world to me..." Midnight looked down at Astrid, smiling softly. Lunar blinked, sleepily looking up at Steel. Celestia continued reading, sighing.

Celestia began reading her books, sighing. "I know, Hemoe." Midnight frowned. "I'm stepping in if you start going too far." Midnight smiled softly in her sleep at Astrid's movement. Luna mumbled something in her sleep. Lunar yawned, opening her eyes a little.

Celestia sighed. "I suppose you're right... I just hate that I have to duel him..." She looked at Hemoe. "Thank you for the book and I will begin reading it now." She smiled, opening the book. Truthfully, she was scared. She hadn't dueled in ages, and Grell was extremely powerful. She hoped things wouldn't turn ugly.

Midnight sighed. "She may be powerful, but she is not used to fighting. Please, reconsider this..." She looked at him. Celestia frowned. "Do you think I am some kind of foal? I know how strong he is. I am also strong. He's the one that decided to challange me. I tried talking him out of it, but he insisted. True, I am no fighter, but I will try my hardest." She looked at Hemoe. "Please do not treat me as though I am inferior to you two."

Midnight sighed. "I don't understand why you want to duel her so bad... She's not a fighter, Grell... You know that... And if you use THAT magic, she'll get crushed... Even she doesn't know forbidden magic..." Celestia blinked, taking the book. "Thank you..." She smiled. -Although I highly doubt I'll need it...- she thought to herself.

Celestia tilted her head a little, but shrugged it off. She looked at Hemoe. "Hello, dear. Can I help you with something?" Midnight frowned. "You know you aren't suppose to be in here without Celestia or Luna with you. Come on." She headed to the door, sighing.b

Midnight used her magic and scanned the castle, looking for Grell. She flew into the library, landing beside him. "What are you doing in the restricted area??" She frowned. Celestia looked up from her book, smiling. "Hello, Chronos. Where's Midnight run off to?" She closed the book she was reading, titled "History of Forbidden and Dark Magic".

Midnight nodded. "Please take care of her..." She opened her wings. "One false move and it could be the end of her life..." She flew off, going down the hall. She had to try and talk Grell out of this... Celestia grabbed a book and began reading. Luna shifted, curling up next to Steel. Luna yawned in her sleep, clinging to him. She looked so peaceful and defenseless laying there.

Midnight blinked, looking away. "I-I cannot say... A-all I know is that he is much stronger than he appears..." She looked at Chronos. "MUCH stronger... You wouldn't stand a chance against him... And Celestia is no fighter... Be very cautious..." Celestia began looking through her books.

"B-but he..." She bit her tongue to keep from saying anything. She knew what he was capable of. The age magic, dark magic... And the forbidden magic. She looked at Celestia. "I-If you are going to do this, please be careful. He won't go easy on you..." Celestia smiled, patting her head. "Have faith in me, my student. It's not like he uses the forbidden spells or anything," she laughed, walking inside her study.

Celestia sighed. "Well, I guess I'm dueling him later..." she said, frowning. "He wouldn't take no for an answer." She shrugged, sighing. Midnight blinked. "Y-you can't! That's suicide, Princess!" she gasped, eyes wide. She knew what he was capable of. Celestia didn't stand a chance.
