Blue Meteorite
“What is your wish young child?” the voice boomed in my head, sat in the middle of a huge room filled with just a light glow from the floor. “My wish? What wish?” I answered lightly
“Child do not cheat yourself of your birth right, tell us what you need.” I Shrank back the voice got only louder and worse.
“YOUNG CHILD, time is running out! MAKE YOUR CHOICE!” The voice yelled out of the dark.
“I’m lonely, so lonely...” I whispered my answer into the darkness.
I woke up startled and kicked the tree I was resting in. The tree shivered at the impact and spit me onto the hard ground. I hit the ground, rolled into the deeper grass. “Ouch…” I quietly whispered to myself. I kept on rolling in till I could see the sky. It’s weird, people respect Lunas glorious night sky but never really admire it. Ponies don't understand the idea of night sky and how it’s a work of art.
The shades of black and blue mixing perfectly, the bright balls called stars gleaming quietly in the background. And the moon, the glorious moon. What would it be like to be on the moon? What does it look like?
Questions milled around my head for minutes till I rolled onto my stomach to look at my ‘home’.
I lived up on a hill just outside of ponyville. Not much but it gives me the best shelter for getting no shelter.
I pushed up onto my hooves and slowly stored my scooter and helmet into the base of the tree and started to pull out a small package of apples I got from applebloom. I held the apples firmly in my mouth and trotted into a small patch of blue grass just outside of the trees canopy so I could gaze at the sky and eat. I slowly ate each apple in till every bit was gone. I moved aside the bag they came in and laid back to watch to see if luna would gift me with the presence of a shooting star.
“Ah, would you look at that one! Thank you luna!” I shouted into the sky as I followed one with my orange hoof. “Hey… why isn’t it disappearing yet?” I kept following it with my hoof. It got closer and closer, “It’s going to land in the lake!” I watched it as it got closer.
I jumped up and ran to my scooter, I tried to pull it out but it got stuck on a root. I kept pulling till It popped out sending me flying backwards. I landed on my tail but quickly looked at my scooter, I watched as a wheel went rolling down the hill. “Ah! No! come back!” I dropped my scooter and ran down the hill following the wheel.
I bumbled down the hill tripping over rocks and dirt on my way down. “Come on legs move faster!” I made my small legs go as fast as I could. I saw the rock but wasn’t able to stop fast enough and ended up tumbling head first down the green hill after my wheel. I hit dirt clumps and spiky bushes trying futilely to stop myself as I knew where this hill ended at.
I rolled and rolled getting motion sickness, I could almost feel myself turning green. I hit one big rock and it hurt a lot but at least it righted me so now I was sliding on my stomach towards the bottom. I looked up at the sky and could still see the meteorite heading towards the same destination as myself now.
It made weird groaning and wheezing noises I could hear from the ground and also the sound of myself screaming. I kept heading towards the lake showing no signs of stopping but neither did it. I watched as my wheel made a small splash in the water but then was covered with water myself.
I poked my head out of the water and let out a stream of water from my mouth and started coughing after. I turned my head to the sky only to see the Huge meteorite hit the calm waters surface with a splash.
A giant wave took over me and threw me around like I was in a washing machine, The waters swirled and I just kept paddling futilely. Finally when my orange head surfaced over the water my eyes followed my ears to the sound of high and low pings and dings.
A blue box floated on the surface of the water.
The groans of the box scared me but still I found myself swimming towards it. It was starting to sink…
“Ahh! Wha…OH NO OH NO OH NO” I heard shouting coming from inside and bangs and smashes. “Umm…Hello!?” I shouted towards the box but the box didn’t answer it just kept crashing about, I swam towards it and nudged it with my nose.
A huge smash greeted me immediately afterwards scaring me so I hit it even harder as I kicked off it with my hooves. Slowly I watched as the water dragged the blue box under the waves, A splash of brown then nothing.
The water started calming when suddenly another splash of brown disrupted the water again followed by a shout. I quickly swam towards the area but the water was again very calm.
I felt something touch my leg, and then something pulled me under the water. When I surfaced I saw a brown head pop out, He looked at me startled and somewhat scared but immediately disappeared again.
It took me a moment to register what I just saw, “Oh! Oh no! A pony!” I looked around the lake for something to help me, nothing not even a branch. I dived under the water to look for the pony but the water was the only thing I could see.
After a couple minutes of searching I gave up, what could a small filly do… I can’t even find the pony.
Tears started to scratch at the side of my eyes. I just let a pony drown…I started to sob uncontrollably.
“I’m so useless! I can’t find my super special talent and I just let a pony DIE!” I sobbed and screamed at the night. The wind started to pick up slightly and pushed at the cover of the water creating waves. As the tears fell off my face and my purple mane became matted.
I cried myself to sleep at the edge of the lake when I woke I was greeted with the scene of nothing. The lake was calm and the trees just lightly sang to the wind. The moon was just setting and the sun was rising.
I stood up still looking at the ground on the verge of crying again, I walked around the lake slowly dragging my hooves. I reached my hole in the sand which I created the night before and just flopped down in the hole and started to silently cry.
“I can’t tell anybody…it’s not like anybody would believe me or would anybody care. Of course there’s applebloom and sweetiebell but they just try to get a cutie mark out of it…”
The wind gusted back my mane allowing me to see the moon just sink over the hill but my eyes looked towards the smudge on the bank. The wind died down and my mane drifted down back to my face. I looked up and moved it away.
There it was a brown shape of a pony on the side of the lake. I let out one sniffle and wiped away tears from my puffy purple eyes. I slowly stood up and brushed away the sand and trotted down to the body bracing myself for the worst.
The body a calm brown with darker brown spikier mane and a short tail. He was obviously a stallion but one I’d never seen before, he had an hourglass cutie mark… what an odd cutie mark. Wonder what it means.
I stood in front of the stallion looking at the still body. I lifted up my hoof to poke at him
“Well or you going to help me or not? Miss, I Believe you owe me after you practically let me drown.” His mouth suddenly started talking and his eyes opened. Very fierce blue eyes.
“Uh, uh?” I just stuttered and stood there as the stallion lay on the beach.
“Well come on now, I can’t stand. New body you know, very awkward especially when you see to be a four legged animal opposed to a two. “ He attempted to move his legs but somehow kicked himself.
I pushed my small head underneath his chest and pushed him up as high as I could, why am I helping a stranger who should be dead? I felt him kicking his legs trying to get a good stand. When he finally got a shaky stand I removed my head from under his chest
When I got a good look at him he seemed awkward and odd with everything but still somehow had this air of calm and knowledge, sort of like no matter what happens he’ll save you.
“Well thank you, Ah! Introductions I forgot! My name is the doctor, yours?” He shakily offered his hoof.
“Scootaloo and Doctor who?” I asked, I took his hoof put only to help not fall over.
“Ahh now that was the question I was waiting for, just the doctor. Now if I may, I do not believe your name is scootaloo… something much better.” He just stood there looking at me.
“Ahaha, No my name really is just scootaloo.” I nodded my head but I felt just a bit of my resolve dissolve.
“No, No it’s not. It really isn’t. I would appreciate greatly if you could tell me.” He glared me down.
“ You're not telling your name why should I?” I glared him back equally. How did I get from sobbing mess to fighting with a guy from the sky?
“Good point… anyways this planet what’s it called I have never heard of a planet with sentient hosts which are horses. I feel that I would have heard of… A level three planet with talking horses. Yep this is definitely a level three, no pollution of any sorts in the air.” He started rambling about planets and the air.
A loud bong filled the air and the doctor seemed rather startled by it.
“Uh, what was that?” He looked at me and grinned, he let out a shrill whistle then suddenly a loud noise started up, wind started to throw up sand into the air and in the middle of it was the blue box slowly forming in the center. When the wind and the noise stopped a loud bong sounded again.
The doctor looked at me and grinned a silly full grin and just clicked his teeth and suddenly the doors to the box flew open with a gust of air. I sat in the sand with my mane swept back and my mouth wide open.
“Well would you care to help me into her, as it seems I still can't walk.” He continued grinning like a madman.
I walked up to him still my eyes were wide with shock but I walked him towards the blue box with him almost completely on top of me. I walked him to a old chair in the big cylinder room. I sat down beside him and just stared at the room. The glass floor lead to a bottom and a huge cylinder was in the middle. The sides had lights or something in them and wires hang from the ceiling sporadically. Stairs lead to places unknown just waiting for adventures like me to explore them. It was a paradise for me.
“Well any comments, questions?” The doctor with a grin that could only be described with satisfaction, joy and smugness.
“Whys it blue?” I just let the first question fly off my head. But the doctor just looked surprised.
‘Well that’s new.” The doctor stated

Hello!
Feel free to harp on me about those weird details or those odd moments that probably shouldn't even exist.
I love both MLP and DW so I want this to be good.
Tell me what you think I NEED feedback, don't deprive me of it! xD
“The reason it’s blue is because it’s a police box and the colour of the police is blue.” The doctor didn’t hesitate to answer. “Now would you like to answer a question for me then you can ask a question?” He asked In an extremely stuck up way but I nodded anyways.
“Where is this, whats it called?” He asked with a very curious look, I guess he wouldn’t know as he is from the sky. “Well we’re outside of ponyville as that’s the closest town but really were on Equestria.”
“Equestria…equestria….Nope, never heard of it…” He quickly mumbled to himself about something about being too old but he cant be that old, he looks like a young mature stallion.
“Can I ask two questions? Whats a Police? And What is this box?” I sat down in front of him, this was like story time.
“Well technically that was just three questions but I’ll let that slide but you’re going to have to pay me back two questions. The police are there to keep certain planets safe, and this my dear is a blue box.”
He chuckled as if he just said some sort of inside joke.
“No, I mean whys it bigger on the inside, how’d it get here! What does it do?” It was all really weird and new and… Interesting. More interesting than anything to have ever happened before in my life.
He cracked a bigger grin, I mean his previous grin never left but It got bigger! “I’ll tell you but you would never believe me.” He whispered in my ear. I was almost bouncing off my seat “Tell me!” I went into a winy voice.
He leaned even closer and whispered even lower ,“It’s a time machine that can travel anywhere in space.”
My eyes widened to the size of saucers “Oh! PLEASE SHOW ME! “I begged at his hooves “I’ve always dreamed of seeing the moon!”
He snorted and flicked his hoof at my idea, completely dropping it. My spirit went down about 10,000 notches and I dropped my head. “Aw, who wants to see the boring moon? All of time and space, everywhere and anywhere, every star that ever was. Where would you like to start?” He jumped up off his chair almost knocking me over and ran over to the middle.
“Now just to figure out how to walk… and how to actually use the console…” He was pacing and muttering. I walked over to him to stop him, He stopped for a second to shuffle around me but I just kept getting in his way.
“Scootaloo was your name? yes? Would you mind not getting in my way… I need to think about how to do this.” I tried really hard not to laugh, my face bunching up into wrinkles, I couldn’t hold it I fell onto my back laughing.
“BWAHA! Doctor, I think your having a lot of problems walking If I do say so myself!” he stopped pacing a turned towards me.
“Whats so funny? I pointed towards his hooves still crying from laughing to much. He looked down and just sighed almost in a defeat shame. He walked over to me and just started tickling. I cried out in more laughter, it was getting to the point it was starting to hurt.
He stopped and looked up in deep thought; Even his thinking face was hilarious. His serious face was just didn’t fit him, It looked old for him. He turned back to still with his serious face on which made me start rolling on the blue boxes glass floor in laughter.
“How do ponies hold things?” he tipped his head back and forth trying to legitimately think about it.
Once my laughter had subsided to a manageable amount I stood up off the floor which was surprisingly clean and walked over to this stick with a green end and just picked it up with my hoof.
“Ah! Please don’t touch that! And how’s that possible? How do I do it?” He fumbled it out of my hooves with his mouth
“Ew! Why would you hold a stick in your mouth that’s just dirty.” I backed up a bit, who in there right mind would hold a green and white stick in their mouth it’s probably radioactive.
“It’sss mot a ssstick it’sss ah sonick screw driver!” He mumbled words around it, I quickly went to him and pulled it out of his mouth. I placed it lightly behind his ear.
“Better?” he nodded but it fell off his ear from the motion. I snorkeled a laugh
He prodded the stick and placed his hoof over it then raised his hoof and rolled it around and kept on fiddling with it.
After about 2 minutes of him grunting and rolling around the stick I found a nice comfy corner to snicker at him. “Ah, doctor watch out for the edge.” I called over to him, he was beside it precariously. He was rolling the stick when it fell over the side.
“AH!” The doctor dived over the side and crashed to the ground.
I jumped up and ran over to him, “Hellooooo!” I called in a way only a girl could. He was lying in a crumpled heap with his hoof up. Holding the stick.
It rolled out of his hand and broke on the ground. As the shattering noise echoed through the chamber the doctor quickly unraveled himself. He looked around wildly and then he looked up.
“Did you see!? I held it! With no fingers or thumbs! It was ridiculous! “He was laughing and smiling. One of the best smiles I’ve seen in a long time.
“Do you know where it rolled off to?” He was giggling and laughing. I pointed to the ground where he looked and just stared. I chortled and cried, his face was the best.
“No!” He stomped his hooves around a bit and snorted like a filly having a tantrum. It was even funnier, I would say I was turning purple but I have no way of knowing. “Here let me help you.” I fluttered down with my small orange wings and picked the scraps up.
“You can fly?! Well I probably should have expected that but still it should be impossible a pony of that size it should be physically impossible but maybe your bones are hollow causing your weight to diminish…” He had started to mumble to himself again.
“wait hold your horses… did you say I was too heavy to fly? Did you just call me fat?” I said in my best sassy girl voice. He jumped back and stuttered a bit then shook his head. I snorted then stalked up the stairs in the most mocking fashion possible.
I got to the top and watched as he followed me slowly up the stairs leading to the main chamber.
“Well where can we go, now that your walking and holding issue is done.” I snickered a bit as he grimaced when I dropped the stick.
“Well scootaloo first let me fix my screwdriver.” He trotted up to it and picked it back up with his mouth.
“Why are you still picking it up with your mouth?” I tipped my head back and forth in confusion. He walked over to a hole in the big round thing in the middle and dropped the remaining pieces into it.
“Feels more proper, It shouldn’t be possible to pick things up without hands or thumbs so I choose the next more proper way to hold something, my mouth.” He scrambled around to in front of me. “Do you really want to go to the moon?”
I quickly nodded throwing my brain for a loop. He glanced at my reaction and nodded himself.
“Well then scootaloo…” He galloped to the other side of the center piece “Welcome to the SS. TARDIS please hold on to something at all time!” He hollered and quickly slammed down a lever.
I quickly found a bar to grab onto as the ground shaked and groaned, the center Colom moved up and down and a loud noise filled the air. As suddenly as it started it had stopped. A loud bong followed after the shaking had stopped.
The doctor ran to me and grinned, “Shall we go?” I didn’t even question how we moved or how it’s possible I just want to see the moon.
The doctor ran to the doors and threw them open. “The moon!” He turned to grin at me but I was already out the doors.
The moon was white and cold but black surrounded with small little stars twinkling in the distance, The big blue planet with patches of colours all over was our big world. I gasped in the beauty and importance of everything.
The doctor pranced over to me. “Amazing, it’s always amazing being able to see your own planet. You think you’re the greatest thing in the universe and nothing could ever stomp you out but in reality the universe is huge ever growing, always changing. There are so many things out there that even I will never be able to see.”
He looked much older and much more tired his face suddenly went sad, he looked so…alone. “Things that are so rare that there is only one left in the universe, all alone, left by everything, nobody to love. Those things are so rare that nobody can save them, so alone that they don’t want anybody to find them anymore, just doomed to die silently without leaving a mark in the world for anybody to remember.”
“Doctor, every mare stallion and foal are unique and every action is watched by somebody. Maybe it’s your family or friends or even a random stranger. Maybe even celestia. That one pony will always remember that action you took that day. Nobody ever goes unnoticed. Everybody has a reason just maybe its not clear to you or anybody.” I looked at him as he turned to me. His face still so lonely.
“Scootaloo where is your family?” the doctor quietly asked.
