The Doctor put His Sonic Screwdriver on a nearby table and turned around, he saw that Hoss was looking at him with concern "Don't worry that's so we don't have to deal with unwanted guests until we're done" he said picking up the device and putting it into his coat pocket before walking over and sitting next to Twilight. He saw Hoss look at the door again before walking over and sitting down in front of them.

"alright I can't really explain this alone" Hoss said looking at the doctor who gestured to proceed. "ok so doctor care to help me explain to them what happened last night?" Hoss said looking at the doctor, He had no idea what had happened last night so it would be impossible for him to explain it, he did have a couple ideas but none would make sense to any of the ponies sitting around him.

"if your from the dimension i think you are then you should be capable of explaining this yourself" He said motioning for Hoss to continue explaining.

"i guess i can try." he said with a shrug. "Alright so what i believe happened is a dimensional rift opened between my room and here." he said motioning at the couch.

"That still doesn't explain how you know our names or how you know the doctor, sugercube." said Applejack.

"Well in my dimension you all are in TV shows, the Doctor is from a show called Doctor Who, while you four are from a show called My Little Pony." Hoss said motioning at everypony as he mentioned them.

"what the hay is a TV?" asked Rainbow Dash as she hovered inches off the ground.

"TV stands for Television which is a system for transmitting visual images and sound that are reproduced on screens, chiefly used to broadcast programs for entertainment." the Doctor said to the group who were still confused.

Hoss rolled his eyes "always over explaining things doctor" he looked at the rest of the group "Is there a movie theater here in Ponyville?" he said as he walked over to the window and looked out.

"Yes but i don't see how that has anything to do with what your explaining." said Twilight.

"It has everything to do with it, a TV is like a mini theater that fits in your home and instead of just one movie playing there are hundreds of them." he said as he walked back over to the group.

"gah, im getting off track again, anyway I've watched these TV shows a lot and that's where I've seen the doctor and you four." he said looking around.

"why do you keep looking around as if you expect something to jump out at you?" said Twilight as she watched Hoss look around the room.

"I am" he said looking back at Twilight. "Haven't you noticed Pinkie Pie hasn't shown up yet? Meaning she is going to show up eventually and want to throw me a welcome-to-equestria-party or something and i want to be ready." he said as he began looking around again.

"uh huh" said Twilight as she rolled her eyes and looked at the doctor. "so how do we get him back to his dimension?"

"well, I could take him in the TARDIS but i need to let these dimensional rifts heal before i open another one to take him back." the doctor said as he pulled out his sonic screwdriver and scanned the air around the couch. He was getting a large energy feedback but couldn't locate the point of origin.

"why can't you take him back now? what harm will that do to the rifts?" said Rainbow Dash.

"If i open another rift it may cause both rifts to grow in size or open more and we will have even more problems."

He heard a thud and then Hoss' voice  "nice try but i could hear your wings flapping" The Doctor looked at where the thud came from and saw Rainbow Dash sitting on the floor looking at Hoss, everypony turned at the sound of someone knocking on the door, The Doctor stood up thinking it could be someone trying to break in and walked over to the door to be ready to subdue the intruder, but the knocking stopped before he reached it.

"looks like Pinkie is here" said Hoss over his shoulder as he climbed up the stairs. The Doctor looked out the window to see the crowd had left and the streets were quiet, most of the house's had their lights off and nopony was roaming the streets. He heard some commotion from upstairs before he saw Pinkie bounce down the stairs followed by Hoss.

"I see you have already met our strange visitor" said Twilight,

"Hey that's not nice, Pinkie isn't strange, she's just random" said Hoss as he looked at Twilight.

"I was talking about you" she said as she rolled her eyes again.

"I like him, he doesn't freak out like most of the new ponies i welcome." Pinkie said as she came to a stop next to her friends. The Doctor had to put a hoof over his mouth to try and hide his laughter.

"Where is Fluttershy? I would like to explain this only once." Hoss said as he sat down again.

"I'm here" said a small voice from a hallway behind the group.

"can you hear me alright back there or do you want to come out and join your friends?"

"I can hear you fine, please continue, but only if you to." said the voice again.

"Alright so now that everyone..i mean everypony is here I can answer questions since i have no clue where to start explaining." said Hoss as he looked at the group sitting before him.

"i guess ill go first" said the doctor as he stood up and walked a little closer to Hoss. "so Hoss do you have an idea of how you got here?" Hoss looked at the floor then back at the doctor.

"well i think something caused a dimensional rift to open here and where my bed is located in my dimension, I'm surprised i was the only thing to come thru since i was laying on my bed when it happened." The doctor looked surprised at his answer and couldn't help but feel impressed by his knowledge.

"I have to thank you for that bit of info since i did get it from your show" said Hoss looking at the Doctor.

He stood up and moved behind the group before sitting back down as Hoss continued to answer questions. He liked the idea of him having his own show, it was going to make things a lot easier to explain to Hoss when the time called for it. He looked out the window thinking about Ditzy again

"I wonder if she is upset that i had to leave or if she is asleep by now" He thought turning his attention back to Hoss who was explaining how AppleJack got her cutie mark. The Doctor looked at Hoss' flank to see that it was completely blank

"That makes it even easier to see that he isn't from here since he looks to be about twenty and still has no cutie mark" he thought looking back out the window.

"Alright now that you believe me what do we do next?" He heard Hoss say before he turned back to him.

"I would take you home now but my TARDIS might create more dimensional rifts, and we can't have that cause next time it may not be a harmless red pony that pops out."

"Hey that's not nice" smirked Hoss. "I guess tomorrow ill go wonder around Ponyville and have a look around" He heard Twilight say something back but wasn't paying much attention anymore.

"When i get back to the TARIDS i need to scan this whole area to make sure its just one rift that has appeared and not more" He thought standing up and walking over to the door.

He used his Sonic Screwdriver to unlock the door and walked out, following the same path he had entered town along. The night air had cooled a bit and the wind had picked up causing the leafs on the trees to shake, he walked over the bridge and looked into the dark swirling water below before he looked over at Ditzy's house which was completely dark. He felt a little sad at the sight since he wanted to have a muffin with Ditzy while he discussed the dimensional rifts before he headed back to the TARDIS to get some much needed sleep.

He let out a sigh before walking into the forest to find his TARDIS. Inside the forest was much darker than inside the town since most of the moonlight had been blocked out by the large trees overhead, he could hear animals scurrying thru the nearby bushes and every once in awhile he could hear the distant growl of a manticore as it hunted. He smiled as his TARDIS came into view, it seamed to glow with what little moonlight penetrated the canopy above.

He clapped his hooves together and the TARDIS' doors flew open and bathed him in it's warm and inviting glow. He walked inside and the doors shut behind him, he had decided to stay up all night looking for rifts but the need for sleep was to great, If he stayed up his work would become sloppy and he would likely miss something important. He decided it was better to get some rest now and wake up early the next morning to scan the entire area.

He slowly walked down the different corridors of the TARDIS letting out a few yawns every now and then, He finally reached his room which was between the pool he hardly used and the drawing room which housed all the objects he could save from his adventures to remind him of companions he had lost. He walked into his bedroom which just had a small bed inside since he hardly ever used it and had no use for decorations in here, he flopped onto his bed and let out a sigh before closing his eyes and falling asleep.
