Ch5: Confrontation

(A/N):I would like to thank BlackWing for allowing me to use the awesome character known as NightShade, And i want to give credit to AmericanMc-gee for the Cheshire Cat. ENJOY!

(CanterlotCastle, Throne room)

The Cheshire Cat started to materialize after disappearing before the disaster, the scene before him made the cat go wide-eyed, a good portion of the throne room was in absolute ruins, bricks from the wall lay scattered everywhere, glass shards were spread across the floor from the now non-existent giant windows, even some of the tile floor was ripped from their respective places, the place was a total disaster but thats not what was so terrifying.  In the middle of all this mess was a portal of unknown origin as well as an unintended destination, and NightShade was standing right in-front of it.

"So, this is it, im gonna end this terror, now.  Celestia, theres something i have to tell you."

The goddess looked up from brushing the bit off dirt that was on her herself, "What is it NightShade?", pure concern in her voice.

"Before I go, I want you to give a message to everypony in Ponyville, tell them that I might not come back after this and one more thing...tell FlutterShy that I love her."  And with his final words, he turned around for possibly the final goodbye.

"Farewell, it's been nice knowing you princess".  The human spread his black wings along with his hands, shut his eye's, and fell backwards, into oblivion.  Shortly after 'Shade fell into the portal Celestia started to hear what sounded a whirring coming from in-front of the portal.  Slowly but surely, a strange blue box started to take shape.  The alicorn princess knew what this was and who would be inside of the contraption.  But she didn't have time to greet the stallion inside, she hastily threw open the doors and started making her way to the StarSwirl the Bearded wing in hopes of finding a way to get a hold of NightShade incase she needed to.

She knew that her telepathy with Shade would work in Equestria, but it was a simple telepathy spell, it couldn't reach across dimensions.

The cat took note of Celestia's leave and started narrowing his eyes on the now fully materialized phone box and made a small joke to himself,

"Whats the matter 'Doctor', looking for something mystifying?" And with a blink of his eye's, the portal started to crumble, as if caving in on it's self.  Only moments later, the gateway to another world had become nothing more than ash and air.  Cheshire vanished, and waited, waited for the time to reveal himself.

Location: TARDIS

Time: Mid-day

"Smaller on the outside, bigger on the inside thats the life of a time lord isn't that right derpy?"

"Ditzy."

"Right sorry,now any questions?"

"Were are we going again? Ba- Ba- Bar- Barce...what was it called?"

"Barcelona Ditzy, wonderful planet; huge beaches, sight-seeing, nice restaurants.."

"Do the restaurants have muffins!?"

"Yes Ditzy, they have muffins, every restaurant in the entire universe has muffins." Ditzy Doo (more formally known as DerpyHooves) excitedly opened the door of the TARDIS waiting to see the beaches of Barcelona, only to be disappointed by the sight of  the interior of Canterlot Castle a look of confusion now apparent on her face.

"Do they happen to have castles in Barcelona?" The mares sarcasm in her voice dripping from her mouth.  The Doctor however, calmly walks past her and states matter-of-factley,

"Rule one of TheDoctor Miss Doo: 'The Doctor always lies', well not always but well..my word, what happened here?"  The sight before him made his blood run cold: A great portion of the throne room was annihilated; Half of the backwall was ripped apart, floor tiles were scattered and Stained glass windows that once stood proud were now shattered into pieces barley noticeable by the pony eye. 'Only one thing could've done this much damage, and I know what'..."Ditzy I want you to stay in the TARDIS, do not come out unless I tell you it's safe to do so."

Ditzy was confused by this, he almost never told her to stay put. But even so, something didn't feel right. "Doctor, is everything alright out there?"

"Just stay inside the TARDIS Ditzy, I don't like the look of this at all."  The Doctor started scanning the area, the sonic screwdriver clenched in-between his teeth.  Broken glass crackled under his hooves as they carried the Doctor where ever he wanted to go, finally he stepped in something soft, it almost felt like...ash, but he couldn't smell the stench left by something recently burnt.  Something was most definitely not right.

"Hello..Doctor."  The Doctors head turned to the left, nothing, then to the right, still nothing, then finally he faced forward and what he saw almost made one of his two hearts stop beating entirely.

A/N: *Im sorry im so sorry for this being late as all hell...but be happy I included TheDoctor(I tried to put a bit of the 10th and 11th in his character)good bye all! *BROHOOF**
