The Hunt for the Crystal Staff
Chapter 17: Timberland
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwilight was awoken along side Dr. Torture, snuggling him while asleep. Twilight was still sleepy so it took a couple seconds to realize what this scene was looking like. Twilight quickly got up and slowly walked backwards.
"Sorry Twilight, but I saw you snuggling me. Besides, we're in a cage." announced Dr. Torture. He was right, they WERE in a cage. Twilight tried to use magic until ...
"Ah, you're finally awake. You are a heavy sleeper." said a mysterious figure.
Twilight couldn't believe it. "Time Turner, what are you doing here?"
"Please, call me the Dr. and also i'm here to get Derpy. We were following you until these timber ponies got us. Unfortunately I was left in a cage a mile or two away from this one." answered the Dr.
Twilight was a little curious and a little mad, "Why were you following us, we did ... well I did nothing wrong. This, Dr., is Dr. Torture a-"
The Dr. cut her off saying, "I know who he is, do you? Besides I wasn't following you, I was following Weird Weather, or should I say Clyde."
Twilight wanted to know how the Doctor knew about Weird Weather and better yet, Clyde. "How do you know Weird Weather? How do you know Torture here? How do you even know Clyde?"
The Dr. was about to answer, but Dr. Torture interrupted with, "He knows who Clyde is because before Weird Weather was in control of the mind Clyde was. The Dr. here is a time lord and he has this device or something that he uses to time travel. He met Clyde and knows how nasty he really is just like me and I should know, Clyde had challenged me and almost killed me, it was embarrassing. Unfortunately for Clyde, he was knocked out before the deed was done and according to what happened he was teleported away."
Twilight and the Dr. both looked at Torture with surprised faces.
The Dr. was the first to say, "How do you know all this? How did Clyde almost kill you? And what do you mean 'according to', you were there right?"
Dr. Torture answered, "I am an awesome and hard core draconiquus, I know about you through the Daleks, funny creatures, 'Exterminate, exterminate', ha ha ha ha. As for how Clyde almost killing me, he was pretty fast, knew what to do, studied my fighting moves, and used a powerful dark magic move that only the deadliest of creatures can use ... Dark Mist. Dark Mist is a spell that uses a mist made out of shadows that, when used, can take the enemy target's molecules and destroy them one by one, kinda like when acid is spilt on a creature. So when he used it I almost died, but something came to my rescue and knocked him out, but I also knocked out because I lost too much energy."
Now Twilight was scared yet intrigued, a pegasus using magic wasn't usual.The Dr. on the other hand was a little skeptical about the Daleks, knowing how evil they are.
Twilight looked around and noticed that Weird Weather and Di-Al were nowhere to be seen, "Hey, where is Di-Al and Weird Weather?"
On the other side of the island, Weird Weather had just awoken and quickly noticed that he was tied up ... with Di-Al.
Weird Weather had tried to get out, but he was punched by a ... wooden hoof?
"So, Popett is finally awake eh, no surprise that you would return to Timberland. Kraven wasn't too happy the last time she saw you with the killing our old leader and leaving Timberland, but did you really leave? I mean you're here aren't you so I guess, well, you never did. Remember me Weird Weather, I help find you your name? I was your best friend, you were one of us and yet you betrayed us, your family. I never forgave you after you left." said a pony made out of wood.
Weird Weather knew him too well, "So Mitchell Wither, Kraven is the new leader. I am so sorry that I left without you, but you said no the last couple of times before the escape. So yeah, I DO remember. Oh and also happy birthday."
Mitchell was still angry, but also glad that his best friend remembered his birthday and also respected his decision on not leaving, those facts made it hard to really have a good reason to hate him. Then Di-Al woke up, "hey, where am I?"
Weird Weather was about to speak until, "You three are about to be fed to the king timber beast on the island."
Mitchell was about to ask about who the third one was until he was shot at on the back with a bow-and-arrow. Weird Weather tried harder to escape his wooden rope prison until the figure quickly ran up to him and pointed a spear with some liquid on it.
"Kraven, and I bet that is Dreamshade that spear head is coated in." said Weird Weather casually.
Kraven was putting on a poker face, hiding her true feeling inside ... hatred, "Yes, yes it is and if you make one move then, not you, but these two, the mutt and your friend, will get it."
Weird Weather was surprised by this threat, "You are willing to sacrifice your own just to get me, why?"
Kraven gave a creepy and evil smile, complete with a shady outline, "Oh, i'm not. because of you, he and I are the only ones that are alive, the others are my own magic-made mindless beasts that will do anything I say. As for him, well I couldn't do EVERYTHING on my own, I had to get help and he was the only other one besides me that survived the king's attack, and it was gruesome. NOW HE GOES TO YOUR SIDE, NOT ON MY WATCH!!! WHO IS THE DEADLIEST NOW, HUH? Hmph, also I made a deal with Sombra. If I help him then I can get away from his destruction."
Weird Weather was thinking about this until he switched with ... "So where can I sign up?" asked Clyde.
Kraven was surprised, Weird Weather never acted like this, all evil-like ... and she loved it, "Well, looks like goody-two shoes has a dark side."
Clyde only laughed, a little too dark, "Oh, you have no idea, but here's a kicker, I need to lay low so whenever you see the others when i'm with you then ... oh wait," Clyde then back head-butted Di-Al out cold, "Now where were we? Oh yeah, and if you see the others while i'm around then pretend that i'm still your enemy and in some times I will play the part too well so ... deal?"
Kraven made no hesitation and untied him, only to be greeted with a total knock-out punch from Clyde. He then tied all three of the poor suckers together and left with his own plans for the Crystal staff.
Back with Twilight, Dr. Torture, and the Doctor, they broke the cage with another stick, which was easy seeing that the cage was MADE out of sticks.
"So where are we?" asked Twilight, seeing only unidentified land in front of her.
The Doctor looked at her and answered, "We, my dear, are in the West side of Timberland, an ancient island that is filled with not only timber wolves, but timber bears, timber bird, timber ponies, even timber fish. Every creature here is made out of timber, even bugs. This island is the deadliest island in Equestrian history from the past to the future, especially since its king is an ancient monster from Tartarus that is about as old as your old friend Di-Al, but with Clyde on the loose then not evem=n an ancient monster such as Godzilla can't face him. Clydeis the deadliest pony stallion I ever met. Now it's only a matter of time before this island is destroyed and us with it ... if we don't get killed by his traps first."
