Doctor Whooves and the Unexpected Visitor

The Doctor paused in the middle of the bridge that lead into town and looked down into the river. He remembered sitting here with Ditzy when they first met and smiled. He wanted her to be by his side but didn't want to risk her getting hurt, if he was dealing with what he thought he was then he wanted her as far away as possible. He shook his head trying to clear his thoughts before he stood up and continued on.

It only took him a couple minutes to cross town and reach the street that the library was on, the street was only a couple blocks long and the library sat at one end while Sugar Cube Corner sat on the other. He had just walked out from behind the small restaurant that homed the Pink mare who loved to throw parties for the entire town and the family named for their profession. He looked down the street to see that the library's lights were still on meaning Twilight was still up.

With a smile he began to walk in the center of the street towards the library. He quickened his pace as he saw something red and white fly out one of the windows on the second floor, and thought it was some kind of monster trying to run away. By the time he reached the library a small crowd had formed and he was forced to stand in the back struggling to see what was going on.

When he finally pushed his way thru, he could see the red and white object he saw fly out of the window was a young stallion who seamed to be very confused and scared. He noticed Twilight was standing at the door saying something but couldn't understand her because of all the ponies talking around him. He looked around angrily at the other ponies trying to get them all to be quiet so he could hear what was being said, he turned his head to the red stallion who had begun to speak.

The Doctor missed the first half of what he said, he seamed to be fighting with Twilight or atleast that's what it looked like.

"I'm sorry, I'm not really thinking straight i went to bed last night in my world and today i wake up here in equestria" said the stallion to AppleJack who was standing in the library's doorway.

"Interesting.." he thought pushing his way thru the crowd until he was standing in front of them and inside the small ring that had formed in front of the library.

He could see that the stallion had a few cuts all over his body and was standing on broken glass from the window.

"What do you mean 'your world'? Are you saying your not from Gaia?" He said walking closer, he still didn't know exactly what this planet was called, some said it was Gaia while others said it was Equus.

"No i come from a planet called earth but i don't think anyone...I'm mean anypony, knows what I'm taking about" said the stallion lifting his head up to look directly at the doctor, he turned his head and began to look around the crowd like he expected them to attack him or something. the Doctor smiled, this whole thing was turning into quite the puzzle and he liked it.

"So I’m guessing you were human then?" he said walking up to the stallion, carefully avoiding the glass.

The red stallion's ears perked up and he looked up at the Doctor. "Your the Doctor, aren't you?" the stallion now was looking at him with awe, like a fan would look at his favorite singer or actor when they shook his hand.

"Yep that would be me...but how did you know that? and what should i call you?" he said, he was beginning to grow more and more suspicious of who this pony was, thinking it was one of his enemies from the past, or even one he hadn't met yet.

"Well i know you from stories I've read and everyone I know on earth just calls me 'Hoss' so i guess that would work fine here" Hoss said,

The Doctor had begun to pace around him deep in thought. This pony who called himself 'Hoss' didn't seem dangerous but he still didn't trust him, he had met a lot of people who acted kind to him and had betrayed him putting him and his companions in harms way for their own selfish desires.

"Doctor is he from a different universe?" Twilight asked stepping out of the library to stand beside AppleJack making him stop his pacing and look at her.

"Not just a different universe but a different dimension, but yes, I do believe so since this dimension has ponies in place of humans like in the dimension he is explaining" he said looking around to see if anyone understood him, his eyes fell on a pink mare who was bouncing up and down next to Twilight.

"wibbly wobbly timey wimey" she said with a big smile on her face.

"Exactly!" he liked Pinkie Pie because she always seamed to understand what he was saying, he wouldn't dare take her with him as his companion because of how hyper she always was and might put herself or him in danger, He watched as she bounced down the street towards Sugar Cube Corner humming a song he didn't recognize.

"So how did i get here then? All i remember is going to sleep in my bed then waking up here" said Hoss as the Doctor scanned him with his Sonic Screwdriver trying to pick up anything that would point out how he got here or if he was telling the truth about where he came from.

"Don't forget running into my bookshelf and knocking all those books off, your going to have to pay for the damage done to those." The Doctor could hear some anger in her voice but knew she was only acting since she rarely got mad over something so simple.

"alright...um...Hoss was it?" he said looking at the red stallion who nodded yes. "ah yes, anyway, I think we should all go into the library and have a nice little chat" he said motioning at Twilight and her friends, he could see that Hoss wasn't going to answer any of the questions he planned to asked with a crowd staring at him.

"That's fine with me as long as Twilight doesn't throw me out anymore windows" Grunted Hoss as he looked up at the window before standing up and following Twilight's friends into the library.

The Doctor turned and followed them deep in thought trying to figure out why this pony thought he was human or how he had been transformed into a pony if he was telling the truth. Before he shut the door he noticed that the group of ponies standing around had started to gather in front of the door.

"I better lock the door so we don't have any interruptions" He thought pulling his Sonic Screwdriver out and activated the lock on the door.
