The Legend of Derpy Hoovesby DerbyHooves123ChaptersBubblesThe Derpy Decision: Hasbro's Biggest BubblebrainTrying to Save DerpyThe Master CanterlotEquestria's FutureChangeling EmpireDoctor WhoovesBubblesDerpy Hooves woke up warm in her bed, Miss Sweetie, her doll, clutched closely to her chest. Snow was falling gently to the ground. Derpy smiled a little. She loved snow. She got up and with Miss Sweetie sitting on her lap, Derpy pressed her hooves to the window, and put her face up close to it, her breath making steamy mist on her window. Other fillies and colts were already galloping outside, and making snowponies and tossing snowballs at each other. Suddenly, a snowball slapped into Derpy’s window, and Derpy leapt back in terror, Miss Sweetie falling from her lap onto the floor. She opened her window. “WHAT WAS THAT FOR?” She bellowed. “Want another one freak? Straight to the face?” Called a pony named Kettle Drum. His horn was alight with green magic and another snowball levitated next to him. Derpy shrank back a little. “Why are you so mean to me?” Derpy asked, “What have I ever done to you?” Kettle Drum snarled and his snowball whipped through the air and hit Derpy in the face. “‘Cause freak,” He called, “you’re different! Besides, we’d rather hang with Dash now then with you.” Derpy wiped the snow from her face, tears in her eyes. “What’s wrong with being different?” She asked as she slid her window shut again. Derpy jumped from her bed, Miss Sweetie held tightly in her jaws. “Hey kid, what’s wrong?” Mom asked when Derpy sat down. “Nothing,” Mumbled Derpy. Mom smiled and put a muffin on a plate. “Eat it, kid,” Mom said, “Your gonna need it.” Derpy ate her muffin and took her sack lunch and hid Miss Sweetie inside her saddlebag. She opened the door of her house, and got a faceful of snow. Derpy wiped her face again. “Better go inside again, freak!” Kettle Drum shouted, another snowball levitating beside him. Derpy took a deep breath , and walked outside into the snow. Kettle Drum’s snowball whipped through the air, and without any conscious thought, Derpy smacked the snowball with her hind legs, sending it whizzing through the air, and straight at Kettle Drum. It smacked him, and Derpy gasped. “I’m sorry Kettle Drum! I didn’t mean to!” She said. “Yeah right you weirdo!” Kettle Drum spat and ran off after his friends. Derpy bit back tears. She struggled to school where Mrs. Blossomforth was taking roll call. “Derpy Hooves?” She called. Derpy jumped into her seat. “Here!” Derpy replied. Mrs. Blossomforth continued calling names and Derpy got bored. She looked at her neighbor, Cheerilee, and she just smirked and turned away. “And, Cheerilee!” Mrs. Blossomforth finished. “I’m he-re!” Cheerilee sang. “Right, today everypony we will be learning about bubbles and what they can do for you. I will hand out a bubble carton to each pony, and you must each blow ONE BUBBLE ONLY. If you blow more than one bubble, then you will be failed!” “Mrs. Blossomforth!” Called Rainbow Dash, “What do you mean ‘we will be failed?’” “Well you will just fail the educational system,” Mrs. Blossomforth said simply, “Now....Kettle Drum? Do you mind passing the bubble cartons out to everypony?” “No Mrs. Blossomforth!” Kettle Drum said. He got up and his horn glowed green again. The bubble cartons zoomed from Mrs. Blossomforth’s desk and each landed on everpony’s desk lightly, except for Derpy. The carton tipped over, and splashed Derpy with bubble sauce! She tumbled from her chair and lay on the floor. Then ponies began to laugh at Derpy and Derpy began to cry. “What is going on here?” Demanded Mrs. Blossomforth. “I just don’t know what went wrong!” Derpy sobbed. “Kettle Drum....” Mrs. Blossomforth said, her voice dangerously calm. All of the students shrank back a little. “Derpy knocked it over Mrs. Blossomforth!” Kettle Drum lied, “I placed it on her desk, and Derpy just knocked it all over herself!” “That ain’t what Ah saw!” A little filly named Applejack frowned. “Na, I saw it!” Rainbow Dash leaned back in her seat, “I saw Derpy hit the carton with her hooves.” “See! Thank you Dash!” Kettle Drum sighed in relief. “Ah’m tellin’ ya’ll Kettle Drum abused his magic, and tipped the bubble carton onto Derpy’s lap!” Applejack insisted. “We do not have all day!” Mrs. Blossomforth snarled, and grabbed Derpy’s empty bubble carton and refilled it with a bit of bubble sauce from her desk. Then, Mrs. Blossomforth replaced the bubble carton on Derpy’s desk. “Now, before I was rudely interrupted,” Mrs. Blossomforth said and Derpy got back in her seat, “Each of you must blow one bubble and see what happens. If nothing happens, we will try again and again until the bubbles are gone.” Derpy took the bubble stick and dipped it into her bubble sauce. She blew on it, and a bubble sailed out of the stick. She was the first to accomplish. Cheerilee’s sauce kept dripping off her stick, and Rainbow Dash repeatedly kept slashing her stick into her bubble sauce. “How does this work?” Rainbow Dash moaned. At last, the room was full of bubbles (Except for Rainbow Dash, who was still slashing repeatedly. Racing was obviously her thing) “Right, do it again!” Mrs. Blossomforth, who sounded as though she wouldn’t have expected anything less of her class. They repeated and repeated until the bubble cartons were empty. Beside Derpy, Cheerilee gasped. “Mrs. Blossomforth! Mrs. Blossomforth! Look, Derpy...her flank.....!” Derpy looked at her, confused. “What about it?” Derpy asked. People around Derpy began to gasp. “Well, what do you know!” Applejack said, “Somethin’ interestin’ DID happen Mrs. Blossomforth!” Derpy looked around confused. “What?” She asked. “Derpy, you, you just got your, your...” Rainbow Dash stuttered. “Wow, just wow!” Kettle Drum said. Derpy was starting to get irritated. “WHAT IS IT?” She shouted. “Derpy,” Cheerilee said, “You just got your cutie mark!” Derpy whipped her head around to look at her flank. Sure enough, six bubbles were on her side. Derpy gasped. The Derpy Decision: Hasbro's Biggest BubblebrainDerpy was trotting along Las Pegasus, looking around at the bright and flashing lights. Every pegasus pony there seemed to be avoiding her as they noticed her. “D....Derpy?” Said a pegasus Derpy had never seen before trotted up to her. “Hi!” Derpy said, “What do you want?” “You might want to go and see the Movie Theater,” The pegasus said, “There’s uh, something you might want to see.” Perplexed, Derpy galloped towards Mare Street. She turned and saw a tremendously long line of ponies all standing in line at the Movie Theater. When Derpy approached, they all scattered muttering to themselves.Derpy looked up at the shimmering display of the new movie, The Derpy Desicion: Hasbro’s biggest bubblehead. “Am I really a bubblebrain?” Derpy wondered, but she went into the movie anyways. She sat down and watched as the movie screen unfolded before her. “Derpy Hooves,” Said a voice, “Hasbro’s biggest argument, Equestria’s biggest troublemaker. Without meaning to, Derpy destroys things, but recent events must be taken into account. “Soccer moms have found Derpy ‘offensive’ ever since she first spoke in season two, the last roundup, episode fourteen. They found Derpy attention-loving and a pony with a mental disorder because of her eyes. “‘The show must go on without Derpy,’ Says Rainbow Dash, ‘Wait, are you guys doing an article, or show?’” Derpy cocked her head. It seemed like a newspaper to her too. “Odd,” She murmured. “Derpy Hooves has been a good pony and we will all miss her,” Said the voice in the background, “But Hasbro has decided. We will miss you Derpy Hooves.” The screen lit up and a slideshow of Derpy’s best moments slid by... Derpy emerged from the movie three hours later her head buzzing and hot tears blazing at her eyes. “I just don’t know what went wrong!” She said miserably. “Derpy Hooves?” Said a pony cautiously walking up to Derpy, “I was asked to give you this. I...it’s from Twilight Sparkle.” Derpy took the letter with a note of thanks and unrolled it on the clouds underneath her. Dearest Derpy Hooves, I have heard of the new movie, ‘The Derpy Decision: Hasbro’s biggest bubblehead’ and you have my sincerest apologies for you. It must be terrifying of the idea that you will never walk the paths and clouds of Equestria again. Derpy shuddered at this point; it wasn’t soothing her nerves. But we just (ALL of my friends, including Rainbow Dash) wanted you to know that it won’t be so bad and you will be in muffin land when you vanish forever. We will all miss you. The show will go on, but it will be empty. Our sincerest apologies Derpy. Celestia’s faithful student and her friends, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack. AND SPIKE! Derpy choked a little as she crumpled the paper into a ball and dumped it into the nearest trash can. “Curse you Twilight Sparkle!” She muttered, “You just made it worse.” “DERPYYYYY!” A loud screech made Derpy look up. A butter-colored pegasus with a pink mane was bouncing towards Derpy. Derpy’s immediate thought was Fluttershy, but Fluttershy wasn’t that loud, but another pegasus with a rainbow colored mane and tail appeared behind the butter-colored pegasus, flying towards Derpy, she realized Rainbow Dash had spoken, and the butter-colored pegasus wasn’t bouncing. It was trotting, her head low. Rainbow Dash landed next to Derpy, her wings brick stiff, and glaring at Derpy with great dislike. “Derpy, your comin’ with me,” Dash said firmly. “I mean, you don’t HAVE to, but it would be nice to come,” The butter-colored pegasus had caught up with them, and Derpy realized that it was indeed Fluttershy. “I’m not coming,” Derpy told Rainbow Dash angrily, “I’m going home.” Then, without another word, Derpy spread her wings and took off, faster than she had ever gone before in her life. Behind Derpy however, Dash let out a string of colorful words, (Fluttershy looked scandalized) and took off after Derpy, creating a Sonic Rainboom as she went. Dash soared around looking for Derpy, and after searching for about five minutes, Dash spotted her lurking on a cloud, looking around cautiously. Dash dove and Derpy saw her, and took off again. Dash landed on the cloud, swore and jumped from the cloud after Derpy. (And creating yet another Sonic Rainboom as she went) Meanwhile, Derpy was diving around clouds as a fantastic rainbow color exploded to life above her. “A Sonic Rainboom!” Derpy breathed, and dove again, accidentally destroying a cloud. “DERPY HOOVES YOU PATHETIC BAKA! GET OVER HERE NOW!” Came Dash’s voice. Derpy gulped and dove underneath the cloud layer, and into the silver sheets of rain. Lightning flashed and Derpy whimpered. There was a little poof from behind Derpy and she twisted around. Dash was racing towards her. “I’M NOT COMING!” Derpy screamed, and swerved to the left. Dash tried to brake as she hurtled towards a cloud, but her head slammed into it anyways. Rainbow Dash pulled her head out of the cloud, and swore again. “I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!” Dash cursed, “Why does Pinkie Pie even WANT to throw a ‘farewell Derpy Hooves party?’” Anger and other emotions built inside Dash, and she screamed, and dove after the distant shape of Derpy, heading for the outskirts of Ponyville, where her home USED to be. Dash caught up with Derpy easily, and grabbed Derpy’s wings binding them tightly together. “OUCH!” Derpy howled. “Put a sock in it,” Dash grumbled, “I’m not happy about this either.” Dash lowered Derpy onto the streets of Ponyville, and grabbed her tail in her teeth. Dash tugged on Derpy’s tail, and with just plain brute force, dragged Derpy to Sugarcube Corner. “I don’t wanna go in!” Whined Derpy as Dash dragged Derpy towards the shop, drenched with sweat and rainwater. Ignoring Derpy, Dash spat out Derpy’s tail, and tapped on the door with her hoof three times. The door swung anonymously from the inside. Derpy got up, massaging her wings. “Get in, Derpy,” Dash growled and Derpy obeyed without hesitation. She bounded in followed by Dash. Rainbow Dash closed the door, and the lights popped on. “SURPRISE!” Half a dozen ponies in party hats bounded from random hiding places around the lobby of Sugarcube Corner. Derpy cast a wary eye and around, and reluctantly walked forward, her hoofsteps making a clopping noise which pressed on everypony’s ears in the silence that had descended upon the quiet party. The door creaked open and Fluttershy crawled in, drenched and shivering. “Surprise?” Her tone made it a question as she lay on the ground shivering. “Ah really thought that Derpy would’ve smiled by now. Didn’t ya’ll think the same thing Big Mac?” Applejack asked her brother quietly. “Eeeyup,” Big Macintosh replied in his deep voice. Derpy stopped suddenly her wing strapped to her sides. She noticed Pinkie Pie, whose hair was starting to get flatter and flatter, and her playful smile was vanishing. “Ah advise either runnin’ or smilin’. Ah reckon ya'll should smile,” Applejack hissed. Derpy thought for a second. She eventually decided, and plastered a huge fake smile over her face. Pinkie’s hair popped back up. “LET’S GET JAMMIN’!” She squealed, and started to play music. Author's Note Just so you guys know, I made this years ago, so don't flame me for it being bad, or Dashie's mean behavior to Derpy! Trying to Save DerpyUnnoticed by the party crowd (Except for Big Macintosh) Derpy had disappeared from the party for quite a while. In fact, Derpy had slipped into the kitchen, opened the window in the kitchen, and jumped outside into the the freezing rain. She was currently shivering as she walked towards her home. “Somepony, ANYPONY, please help me!” Derpy cried, “I’m sorry!” She hoped Hasbro could hear her, but nothing happened, except the sky darkened, and more rain tumbled down. Derpy broke down entirely and fear built inside her. Derpy started to run towards her house, her hooves getting muddy and splashing in random puddles, drenching random ponies. When Derpy arrived at her home, it had vanished. Miss Sweetie was on the ground, her head ripped off. “Miss Sweetie!” Derpy gasped staring at her favorite childhood doll. “No, no, NO!” She said galloping towards Miss Sweetie. She picked it up and cradled it in her hooves. Barely a second had passed since Derpy had picked up her doll when it vanished with a puff of smoke. Derp looked at her hoofs and saw nothing. She curled up on the muddy ground and began to cry, fear washing over her like a large blanket of doom. Ahem... WARNING: I AM ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE. *Insert sad music here* Eventually Derpy got up and passed around through Ponyville, her head hung low. She looked up occasionally to stare at other ponies, without a care in the world, not about to be deleted. She muttered under her breath, and stared at her reflection in a dark window. She moved on to Sugarcube Corner and pressed a hoof on the glass to the party going on inside, wishing she could be there too, actually enjoying herself. She sobbed a little as she noticed the cake. In Mrs. Cake’s elegant handwriting was: Farewell Derpy Hooves Derpy galloped off, once or twice catching her wall-eyed reflection in puddles. Derpy eventually slowed to a trot as she entered the Ponyville Box Emporium. All it consisted of was boxes. Derpy searched in the Ponyville Box Emporium trying to find a suitable home for her. Eventually, Derpy found a large box, and wrote: Muffin Home In large, bolded letters. Then she found a copy of the old Ponyville Express, and placed it on the top of her box. Derpy dragged it too the place where her house had been and slid inside the box. Within seconds, water was dripping onto the floor of the box because the newspaper was so wet. Derpy curled up, wishing Miss Sweetie was here with her. Miss Sweetie just has a way of making her feel safe, but her doll was gone, where Derpy could not call it back. Tears came to Derpy’s eyes before she could stop them, but why wipe them away? Derpy let them fall, her lips pressed tightly together. Eventually, Derpy fell into a miserable sleep. *Stop sad music* In the human world, all Bronies and Pegasisters of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, became enraged about Hasbro’s decision. Many of them set to work, hoping to save Derpy Hooves of the horrors awaiting her when she was deleted from existence..................... When Derpy awoke the next morning, she expected to be in bed with Miss Sweetie, but she was in her Muffin Home. Realization of what happened yesterday washed over Derpy and she began to cry again, fear blanketing her. “Derpy!” The sharp cry made Derpy sit up, her messy and unkempt mane brushing the top of the wet newspaper. Suddenly the soaking newspaper was ripped off and cast aside by some force. Twilight Sparkle’s head appeared above Derpy, grinning ear-to-ear. It was then that Derpy realized that Twilight Sparkle had used her telekinesis to lift the newspaper and cast it aside. “Oh, hi. What do YOU want?” Derpy asked glumly, turning away from Twilight’s happy eager face. “There is something you’ve got to see!” Was Twilight’s reply. “What is it about?”Derpy asked, still not looking at Twilight. “I can’t explain it,” Twilight said impatiently. She used her telekinesis to lift Derpy out of her Muffin Home and pulled her over to the library. Soon they arrived, and the first thing Derpy saw was all of Twilight Sparkle’s friends. “You brought Derpy to the library,” Rainbow Dash said incredibly, “Really?” “Yes,” Twilight said, stopping Derpy from throwing open the door of the library and running off with the simple act of using her telekinesis to grab hold of the end of Derpy’s tail. Then she magicked a key over to the door of the library, and turned it in the lock. “You’re locking her into the library with us?” Rarity gaped, “Darling, you surely can’t be serious!” Twilight looked at her and raised an eyebrow. “Wee hoo!” Pinkie Pie said happily. “No, not ‘wee hoo!’” Dash said, “Twilight just sealed our own demise!” “Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said warningly. “She’ll knock over all the shelfs, sending us into a river of books!” Dash said, flying to a shelf full of books, and knocking it over, in an impersonation of Derpy. Derpy looked severely hurt. “Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said angrily, as her horn glowed pink and the shelf soared back to it’s original position, and the books whizzed back on the shelf. “Or, or,” Dash seemed to be casting around for another random thing Derpy might do, “Derpy might bonk into Spike,” At this, Spike looked alarmed that he was being brought into the conversation as well, “And set the whole library on fire! Then we'll burn to death!” Dash bonked into Spike, trying to act like Derpy again, and green flames erupted from Spike’s mouth and torched the nearest book. “Hey!” Twilight said indignantly, “I was using that!” “Twilight, UNLOCK THE DOOR!” Rarity breathed. “Actually, I don’t think you guys are being fair to Derpy,” Fluttershy murmured. “Ah’m startin’ ter see Rainbow Dash’s point ya’ll,” Applejack pointed out, “Derpy’s a bull in a china shop! She’s gonna break every single thing in here.” “Now, let’s not jump to any conclusions,” Fluttershy whispered. “I for one think Derpy should be kicked out of the library,” Rarity proclaimed. “See Twilight,” Dash said, “They get my point.” “Well, what about Fluttershy!” Twilight argued, “You haven’t seen her perspective!” “I for one think Derpy...” Fluttershy began quietly. “And you haven’t seen Spike’s perspective yet!” Twilight interrupted, glaring at Rainbow Dash, “I think YOU should be the one kicked out! You torched the Reference Guide to the Elements of Harmony! You also knocked over a shelf I had organized in a very specific pattern! I have to start all over!” Dash looked sheepish. “Stop right there!” Applejack cried, as she, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie rushed over in front of Rainbow Dash, “There ain’t no good reason for ya’ll ter kick Rainbow Dash out of the library!” “This may be your home Twilight!” Rarity said indignantly, “But it does not mean you can so RUDELY kick somepony out of it!” Twilight’s horn glowed brightly in anger. “Just give her a chance!” Twilight roared. “Oh dear!” Fluttershy said in a small voice, and along with Derpy, both of them seemed to melt into the shadows. “What has Derpy EVER done to you?” Twilight snarled, “Why can’t you give her a chance. She’ll be out of your manes in a few months! So WHY DON’T YOU LIVE WITH HER FOR A WHILE AND STOP BEING IGNORANT PONY HEADS!” Breathing heavily Twilight turned to the shadows in which Fluttershy was lurking, “What do you think Fluttershy?” Twilight demanded angrily. Fluttershy looked alarmed, but calmed soon enough. “Well, I think that since Derpy will be deleted soon, that Rainbow Dash and the others should stop being so mean to her, and actually give her a chance!” Fluttershy said. “Right, Spike? What do you think about this?” Twilight said, turning to the purple dragon who looked positively alarmed. “I um...” Spike spluttered. “Spit it out already!” Dash said. “I think Derpy should stay ‘cause she doesn’t realize that she might have a chance,” Spike squeaked. “A chance? A chance at what?” Derpy, hearing Spikes stutters, emerged from her shadowy corner. “Twilight!” Spike looked pleadingly at her, and Twilight sighed. She used her telekinesis to open the shutters, illuminating the room in light. She magicked a large computer onto a table cluttered with books. Perching it precariously onto the table, Twilight turned the device on by pressing some sort of button with her nose. “What is that?” Derpy asked approaching the computer. “It’s called a computer,” Twilight explained, as her friends behind her looked amazed, “It’s a device that you can do so many things on, just hard to explain the basics. Well...” “Hey Twi, can I use that sometime?” Dash interrupted. Twilight gave her a furious look, and continued. “Starswirl the Bearded came up with this idea. Princess Celestia was very fortunate to come across this one if the Starswirl the Bearded wing when I started freaking out about the ‘disaster that never came.’ She sent it to me during one of the breaks we had in between the shows. I’ve kept it hidden ever since.” “Does Hasbro know you have it?” Derpy asked stupidly. Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Twilight rolled their eyes, knowing the obvious answer. “No,” Pinkie Pie said dryly. “OK!” Derpy gurgled brightly. The computer turned on and Twilight moved the mouse to the internet icon, and clicked it. “What is that?” Derpy said, frowning at the mouse. “Its called a mouse,” Twilight explained. “A mouse?” Derpy said thinking, “Like, the thing that cats like to chase?” “Thank GOODNESS Opal Essence doesn’t chase those horrid things,” Rarity shuddered. “Or DOES she?” Pinkie Pie said mysteriously. “Does she?” Rarity asked. “I dunno,” Pinkie shrugged, which was an odd sight on a pony. Twilight glared at them, and continued explaining what a mouse was. “In the book Celestia recovered from the Starswirl the Bearded Wing a mouse is what controls the little pointer thingy on the screen,” She said. “Oh,” Derpy said, nodding. The internet had now booted up, and Twilight clicked on some online thing called Youtube. There she typed in ‘Save Derpy Hooves’ and hit enter on the keyboard. Only one video popped up. “This is it!” Twilight said. After loading for a bit, it started to play, talking about how Derpy wasn’t bad, and how unfair Hasbro was being to Derpy. At the end of the video, Derpy just sat there with her mouth half open, staring at the screen. “Alright video’s over!” Dash said, picking Derpy up by her wings again, and plopping Derpy outside after unlocking the door. “Ah’d better head back ter the barn ya’ll,” Applejack’s voice came, “Rainbow, just leave the door unlocked fer me.” A second later, Applejack emerged from the library, trotting towards Sweet Apple Acres. Over the course of time, more ‘save Derpy Hooves’ videos popped out on Youtube, including a ‘Save Derpy Hooves!’ website which you could sign, but nothing lifted Derpy’s spirits, and a dull hopelessness started to wind it’s way out of her heart and around her body. Nothing was seeming to happen to her, thought Derpy as she looked around at her beloved Ponville. No, actually, nothing WAS happening. Miss Sweetie hadn’t returned, whole and undamaged, and Derpy’s house still remained the Muffin Home, on the grounds of her old home which had mysteriously vanished. There were entire nights where Derpy would curl up in a small little ball inside her Muffin Home, and just cry as fear and pain flew inside her, like a small winged creature, trying to force itself out of her stomach. One day, Derpy finally decided to ask for help from her fellow Ponyvillians. She searched the Ponyville Box Emporium again, and found a suitable box for her cause. There she cut until a large sign could be made.Derpy placed it (P.S, This is the kind of sign with a back you can adjust to whatever angle you want it) on the sidewalk by Sugarcube Corner, and a little tin next to it for money. Then Derpy borrowed a marker from Pinkie Pie, and wrote: Save me! -Derpy Hooves Derpy drew her face next to the writing, but by the end of the day, Derpy had no money. Everypony in Ponyville just thought Derpy WANTED money. “No, wait!” Derpy would try and explain, “Really, I’m going to be deleted from the show by Hasbro! Haven’t you guys seen the movie?” The Ponyvillians would just look at Derpy skeptically, and trot away. “Aww, come on sugarcube!” Applejack said as she and her friends (Rainbow Dash had mysteriously vanished) spotted Derpy by her sign, drawing frowny faces in the ground with her hoof, “You’re not gonna be deleted!” “Tell that to Hasbro,” Derpy muttered, turning to her wall-eyed reflection in the Sugarcube Corner window. “Well, actually, Hasbro is really considering bringing you back onto the show!” Twilight told Derpy who just gave Twilight a skeptical look, and turned away. “Honest!” Fluttershy murmured, “We’ve been at Twilight’s house every day, and she’s been looking up Youtube, and there are so many videos now! Then we looked up Hasbro.com and it actually said that some of the workers at Hasbro wanted you back on to keep the fans of My Little Pony, but other workers aren’t so keen on the idea.” “YAY!” Pinkie Pie screamed happily, “DERPY’S BACK ON!” “Not really,” Twilight pointed out, “Lauren Faust, the producer and leader of our show is against Derpy. She’s going to delete her.” “Great!” Derpy groaned, and plopped on the ground, sobbing. “Come on now sugarcube!” Applejack said, “You ain’t got a thin’ ya’ll need ter worry about. They’ll get Faust ter see right. Yer not a bad pony ya’ll, and ya’ll jest need ter calm down. Ah’m serious.” “Is there a problem Derpy Hooves?” Said a mild voice. The ponies turned around, and gasped. “Doctor Whooves?” Derpy wondered. The doctor laughed. “Yup!” The caramel colored pony said. “Well, do you think you might solve Derpy’s horrible problem?” Twilight asked. “Depends on what it is,” The Doctor said. “Well...” Pinkie sucked in all the breath she could take, “Derpy’sgoingtobedeletedbyHasbroandsoTwilightheredecidedtotakeDerpyunderherwingsosheshowedDerpyhercomputer,andwentoawebsitecalledYoutube.ThenTwilighttypedin’SaveDerpyHooves!” Pinkie said quickly, “Thena ‘SaveDerpyHoovesthingpoppedoutonYoutube,onthecomputerPrincessCelestiagaveTwilightandwewatchedthevideo,butDerpy’sstillreallyupsetsomaybeyoucouldhelpherwithitandmakeherbehappyandsmileabunchagain,andjoinpartiesandnotdisappearfromthemfortheentiretimethatthepartyisgoingon,” Pinkie collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily from her rant. “Pardon?” The doctor said, and Pinkie repeated what she just said, slower this time. “Ohhhh!” The ponies said (Except for Pinkie) when Pinkie Pie was finished. “Um, YEAH!” Pinkie huffed, her eyes narrowed angrily. The Master The Master Doctor Whooves opened the door of his small blue telephone box and slid inside it. He typed in the coordinates and clicked the ‘go’ button. There was a whirl of colors, and the Doctor appeared in the middle of the night, the party in Sugarcube Corner loud and rowdy. He opened the door, and slipped outside of the TARDIS, and ducked behind a bush as Derpy approached him. “Psst, Derpy!” The Doctor hissed. Derpy looked into the party inside Sugarcube Corner, and sighed, tears in her eyes. “Derpy!” The Doctor repeated urgently. Derpy looked up, and trotted towards the Doctor. “Doctor Whooves!” Derpy said in surprise, “What are you doing here?” “I’m here to save you,” The Doctor said, “Hurry, into the TARDIS, we haven’t got much time.” “The TARDIS?” Derpy asked quizzically. “It’s the phone booth,” The Doctor groaned. Derpy trotted inside the TARDIS, and was quickly followed by the Doctor who closed the door of the blue phone booth. He typed a few things into the keypad, and the TARDIS shuddered, but did nothing. The Doctor groaned again. “Great,” He muttered, “Time is not my favorite mistress.” “Can you save me?” Derpy asked curiously. “No!” The Doctor fumed, “I can’t! Lauren Faust knows about me and made sure I couldn’t do anything about this situation! They must have some sort of device that protects the Human World from crossing over to this word. The quadrature angle of the moon is not quite right! For this to accomplish the moon, Earth, and the sun must be completely lined up! I must have to go forwards a hundred years to get this to work!” The doctor’s face lit up, “That’s it!” He said excitedly, while the past Derpy looked utterly confused, “The TARDIS can take me, anytime, anywhere in the world, just as long as the circumstances are perfect! Unfortunately, I can’t take you with me Derpy.” The Doctor added, looking a Derpy. “Why?” Derpy asked, her lower lip wobbling, and the Doctor felt his heart lurch in pity. “Well, because it could be too dangerous,” The Doctor said, pressing a button on the control panel. It opened with a small puff of white smoke and the Doctor admired his Sonic Screwdriver. The Doctor picked the device up in his mouth, mumbling about how he didn’t want to repeat the experience (Beating the Heat, chapter something) and took aim at Derpy. “Wait, what’s goin’ on?” Derpy demanded suddenly, but the Doctor pressed a button on his screwdriver and a green light soared out of the Sonic Screwdriver, and hit Derpy. She crumpled. “She’ll wake up in about 15 minutes,” The Doctor muttered to no one, “Gotta get her out of the TARDIS so she won’t remember me, or anything I’ve showed her. The Doctor dragged Derpy outside of this telephone box, and cantered back inside. “Now, let’s see,” He murmured, “100 years into the future, before the quadrature angles are exact!” He pressed the ‘go’ button on the TARDIS’s control panel, and the world dissolved in a blur of colors. The world appeared again in the middle of a dry, deserted landscape. When Doctor Whooves exited the TARDIS, he saw that Sugarcube Corner was just a black stretch of building with an electronic billboard flashing the same words, over and over again. Obey, obey, obey Above these words was a pony the Doctor knew very well, and his blood boiled when he heard that same annoying, lazy drawl. “Why hello, Doctor Whooves.” “Master,” The Doctor replied calmly turning to face his old friend, although his stomach was twisting itself into knots out of anger and resentment. “Pleased to see me,” The Master snarled. The Doctor smirked a little. “No, I cannot say that I am,” He responded with the air of one commenting on the weather, “What has happened here Master? Have you achieved what you wanted to in the last 100 years I’ve been traveling in the TARDIS? Seems you haven’t aged at all.” The Master spat at the Doctor. “I took over this world after Lauren Faust shut us down for good,” the black pony gestured to the electronic billboard where his face was shaking a hoof down at them, “Now the ponies of Equestria fear me! I cannot be stopped! Muahahaha! “Princess Celestia and Princess Luna could get you,” The Doctor reminded his old college. “Yes well,” A little smile twisted at the end of the Master’s mouth at this, “When we were being shut down, Celestia and Luna betrayed us, and escaped to the human world. They are currently doing whatever humans do.” “Bwah?” The Doctor cocked his head, extremely confused. “Celestia. Luna. Go to Human World. They turn into humans when escape. Celestia.Luna. Left ponies in hands of me,” The Master groaned. “Thank you for clearing that up,” The Doctor said, “But I simply must get back inside the TARDIS, so I may go into the human world with Derpy, by the way where's Derpy?” “Gone,” Rasped the Master, “Hasbro deleted her.” “They wouldn’t! They couldn’t!” The Doctor gasped, “There were so many videos...” “The video’s did save her,” The Master agreed, “But the Hasbro turned her into Ditzy Doo, and changed her voice and eyes. Soon after, Hasbro decided to not put her in any shows, so Derpy served no purpose at all. And if you serve no purpose, then you get deleted.” The Doctor raised a hoof to his mouth in horror. “Well Doctor,” The Master said, “May I offer you anything? Coffee, tea? A one way trip to your own demise?” “Bwah?” “Nevermind,” The Master waved his hoof dismissively, “The point is, you’ve fallen right into my trap!” The Master tugged on a random string, and the Doctor fell, down a seemingly bottomless pit. The Doctor fell hard on concrete, and he felt himself black out. Doctor Whooves awoke in a chamber, his head aching, and his hooves chained to the sides of an old concrete wall. “Stupid!” He scolded himself, “You should know better than to fall for Master’s tricks!” The sound of a cruel laugh filled the room, and the Master entered, guffawing gloatingly. “I can’t believe you are so gullible!” He giggled insanely, “A millennia of fighting evil has not been wasted on you!” The Doctor took a deep breath, and took aim with his Sonic Screwdriver, except it wasn’t there! The Doctor looked wildly around and spotted it on a stone table, just beyond his already limited reach. “So, the great Doctor Whooves finally meets his match,” The Master said, with a twisted smile upon his lips. He put a hoof on the Doctor’s chest, a manic gleam in his eyes, “Destroyed utterly by the great MASTER!” He bellowed the last word. The door opened behind the pair, and a very familiar (Perhaps not to Doctor Whooves, but to Twilight Sparkle perhaps) voice rang out towards them. “Hey boss, I finished cleaning the fridge, I made you breakfast, and here’s your clean laundry... ohh. The Great and Powerful Trixie LIKE.” “No, Trixie, it’s not what it looks like!” The Master said moving his hoof away from the Doctor’s chest and waving his front two repeatedly. “I get it!” Trixie sneered, “And it’s gross!” “Trixie, just go,” The Master facehoofed, and pointed towards the open door. “I want to witness this!” Trixie insisted, and seated herself in a plush winged armchair. The Master glowered at Trixie and turned away, and began pacing in front of the Doctor. “Did you really think that Equestria would change?” The Master jeered at the Doctor, “ Celestia and Luna would never leave their subjects, and they have thwarted me multiple times in my plans to take over Equestria! Soon I will get rid of them, but first, I will get rid of YOU! Trixie, fetch the Transfer device!” Trixie groaned. “But this just starting to get interesting!” Trixie protested. “Trixie!” The Master barked, and Trixie left the winged armchair and grumbling, she left the room. “She needed a job,” The Master said, “So I made her my slave!” The Master let out an evil cackle, which didn’t drown out Trixie’s words from the other room. “Employee boss.” The Master groaned. “Fine, I hired her as my employee. Mu. ha. ha. ha,” The Master muttered, his laugh not having the evil passion it just had a moment ago. “Well, your employee doesn’t seem too happy about this appointment,” The Doctor noted, “Does she not get paid? I can fix that you know!” “What do you have in mind?” The Master asked, eyeing the Doctor with suspicion. “Well, a simple blast from my Sonic Screwdriver will...” The Doctor began. “Ha!” The Master cut the caramel colored pony off, “I’m not falling for that trick again!” “I was simply suggesting to zap Trixie with the green button!” The Doctor said indignantly, “Honestly!” The Master glared at the Doctor. “Boss, here’s the transfer thingy mabob!” Trixie had returned, and was using her telekinesis to lift a large and bulky device into the room. She dropped it with a large crash. “Careful dimwit!” The Master snarled, “You don’t want to do more damage!” The Doctor peered as closely as he could, and saw the device had other serious marks of damage on it. If he could just get his Sonic Screwdriver... “We’ll have none of that Doctor!” The Master snapped, grabbing the Sonic Screwdriver swiftly away from the Doctor as the caramel colored pony tried to reach it, “Trixie, take this screwdriver thing!” The Doctor turned his attention to Trixie and she yawned as she used her telekinesis to take his Sonic Screwdriver and levitate it over to her. “So, what does this particular device do?” The Doctor asked casually, a plan formulating in his head. “This wonderful device, this beautiful amazing device, is the one way trip for me taking over Equestria!” The Master cackled, “I shall zap you with it, a simple push of this button will get us to trade bodies! Are you scared yet Doctor?” “Eh,” The Doctor replied, distracted by the fact that Trixie was bobbing his Sonic Screwdriver tantalizingly in front of him. “Nevermind,” The Master said, waving a hoof dismissively, “Once our bodies are switched, I will go to Celestia and Luna! They will consider me to be the good guy, and hand Equestria to me! Muhahahahah!” Then the Master started to rant about the things he would do in the Doctor’s form, while the REAL Doctor Whooves started to put his plan into action. “Trixie,” The Doctor said softly, “Can you give me my Sonic Screwdriver back?” Trixie got out of the armchair, and approached the Doctor. “Your Sonic Screwdriver? Is that what this thing is?” She asked quietly, waggling the Doctor’s screwdriver in his face. “Yes, that’s it,” The Doctor said, “Please, can you give it back, or at least release me by pressing the blue button!” The Doctor looked at Trixie with pleading eyes, “I need to get home!” Trixie felt her heart lurch, and with one trembling hoof, pressed the blue button. CanterlotDerpy scrambled onto the Friendship Express, her heart beating rapidly. She found the compartment with Twilight Sparkle in it, and she flopped down on the seat next to her. “You won’t believe what I’m remembering!” Derpy said. “Ah don’ think I ever will,” Applejack muttered. “What?” “Nothin’ sugarcube.” “Okay....Well anyway,” Derpy continued, “I remember that Doctor Whooves came to be, and took me to this blue telephone box called the TARDIS. Then he started rambling on about....oh. I don’t remember anything now.” Derpy scratched her head. “What do you MEAN you can’t remember?” Twilight demanded, “You were just talking about it!” “Yeah, I know,” Pinkie agreed, “Seems really weird to me.” “Derpy,” Fluttershy said kindly, “Can you remember anything that happened? Anything at all. It might be very important.” “Why?” Derpy asked. “That memory could’ve told us who the Doctor’s secret identity!” Twilight snapped, “I want to know who he is, and why does he disappear for days at a time, and how he somehow knows what will happen in the future! ARGHHHH!” “Calm yerself down Twi,” Applejack said, “Jest cause Derpy can’t remember nothin’ bout that memory don’t mean that ya’ll can’t figure out what Doctor Whooves’s identity is! Jest take a deep breath and calm yerself down.” Twilight took a deep breath, and held her hoof to her chest. She let out the air at the same time she removed her hoof away from her chest and pointed it outward. “Your right Applejack,” She said,”My mind has been so clouded with these thoughts that I’m too worked up and irritated to see the truth! If I can open my mind, then I’m positive that the real truth will shine out.” What does that have to do with the Doctor’s identity? Derpy thought curiously. “Hey, where’s Spike?” Pinkie asked. The ponies looked around. “He has been really quiet the last few weeks,” Rarity said thoughtfully, “He was with us on the Friendship Express when we got on.” “He must’ve gotten off,” Twilight said as the train lurched; they were leaving the Ponyville Train Station. “Hey guys!” Rainbow Dash flew into the open window. “Rainbow Dash, where did you go?” Twilight demanded angrily. “Just needed to take one of my afternoon naps,” Dash shrugged. “Dashie!” Pinkie pouted, “When we went to visit Derpy you mysteriously melted out of sight! I think you don’t like Derpy!” The other ponies gasped. “No!” Dash insisted, “I like Derpy just fine!” “You’ve never forgiven me, have you?” Derpy whimpered, her lower lip wobbling, and her eyes filling with tears. “No, honestly!” Dash said quickly, “I have forgiven you for torching my tail!” “No, if you had forgive me, you would’ve came comforted me with the others!” Derpy responded. “Dashie!” Pinkie Pie said, “Tell her the truth!” “Rainbow Dash, do you honestly like Derpy?” Twilight asked calmly. “Yes, no, yes!” Dash said. “Ya’ll need ter get ahold of yerself Rainbow Dash,” Applejack said, “Ah need a straight answer from ya’ll! Derpy needs a straight answer from ya’ll! We all need ter get a straight answer from ya’ll! Ain’t that right gals?” Cheers were her reply. “I like Derpy!” Dash insisted angrily. “Dashie, you’ve never been a good liar,” Pinkie giggled. Dash sighed in surrender. “Alright, I don’t like her!” She said, “I’ve had a grudge against ever since she burned my tail. Okay, happy?” “I knew you never forgave me!” Derpy said triumphantly, but her smile quickly faded, and tears filled her eyes, “I’m sorry though Rainbow Dash! I just was so selfish then, and I shouldn’t’ve bounced on the cloud, and destroyed town hall!” Derpy tossed herself forwards and the ground, and broke down completely. Dash bit her wing. She looked up to find her friends looking up at her expectantly. “Go comfort her!” Fluttershy said. “Who, me?” Dash said, looking uncomfortable. “You’re the one who made her cry in the first place!” Pinkie said. “It won’ be so bad,”Applejack assured her, “Just tell her tha’ ya’ll are sorry an’ tha’ ya’ll are gonna be nicer in the future!” “Go on Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said. “Good gravy girl! Just get over there and get the job done already!” Applejack snapped, “If ya’ll were an Apple, ya’ll would do a very good job! It’s an Apple’s duty too...” “Here we go again!” Twilight muttered, barely audible over Derpy’s wailing. “It’s an Apple’s duty, ter be a good pony To try and save them who need to be helped! Here in Sweet Apple Acres, Our duty is to pluck them apples!!!!!” Applejack began singing the Sweet Apple Acres national anthem, and she held the last word very long, and very high. Rarity thought it was fantastic (“Bravo, Applejack! Bravo!”) “Oohhhh, Sweet Apple Acres, is someplace ya’ll posses! Sweet Apple Acres, is a fantastic place! Sweet Apple Acres, is founded on honesty, truth, and loveeeee! And our duty means a lot! The duty is ter pick all them apples! We must be chipper, and never complain, We must treat them apples with respect and love, Because without them, we wouldn’t be the best of them all!” Applejack finished the song on a very high note. “Bravo!” Rarity said, “That was simply wonderful Applejack! Did Granny Smith teach you that one?” “Yup,” Applejack said proudly, “That anthem Granny made up herself when she was a littl’ filly. She taught that song ter Big Mac, and then ter me. I’ll remember it ter my dyin’ day,and when I have children then I’m gonna teach it ter them. So, Rainbow Dash, ya’ll ready?” Rainbow Dash looked up and bit her lip. “Fine,” She muttered, and trotted over to Derpy, who was still sobbing. “L...leave me a.....alone!” Derpy sniffled, “I..I don’t wanna t....talk to y...you.” Dash sat down next to Derpy, her hooves folded underneath her. “Look Derpy,” She said kindly, “I’m sorry OK? I should’ve forgiven you for that. That did happen a long time ago, although the end of my tail is not quite as rainbowy as I would like it” -Derpy sobbed harder than ever at this- “But I forgive you. Tell you what. When we’re back in Ponyville, I’ll get you a muffin from Sugarcube Corner! Sound good?” Derpy looked up at Dash when she had finished, her eyes still swimming with tears. “You mean it?” She asked, wiping her face noisily on her hoof, “You really do?” “No,” Dash said and stood up. “Yay!” Derpy bounded to her hooves, grinning. The first thing the ponies saw upon leaving the train was a bunch of guards. “Princess Celestia would like to see you, Derpy Hooves,” Said one. “Feel free!” Rainbow Dash smirked, and pushed Derpy towards the guards. “What do you want?” Derpy asked curiously. “Just a few experiments,” The second guard said, grinning evilly. “Wait, WHAT?” Derpy yelped. “Derpy, what’s going on?” Twilight screamed, as the six ponies galloped towards the pony. “HEELLLPPPPPPP!” Derpy’s scream hung in the air as the guards tied up Derpy’s wings and flew away into the distance with her. “Oh dear,” Fluttershy said. “Great, how could I have been so STUPID!” Twilight stomped her hoof angrily, “Those must’ve been Changelings!” “But, what are they gonna do ter Derpy?” Applejack said nervously. “I. Don’t. Know!” Twilight replied, her purple eyes growing bigger and bigger with each word. Equestria's FutureAs soon as Trixie’s hoof pressed the button, a beam of light sailed from the screwdriver, and hit the bonds chaining Doctor Whooves to the concrete. The chains released him, and the Doctor knocked Trixie aside and grabbed his Sonic Screwdriver, as the blue unicorn collided with a concrete wall with a sickening crunch. Not pausing to check on her, the Doctor aimed his Sonic Screwdriver at the Master. “Oh no you don’t!” The Master roared, and leapt at the Doctor. The caramel colored pony skillfully jumped out of the way, his hooves hitting the marble hard, and making a large banging noise. “So, I’ve met my match huh Master?” The Doctor said smugly. “Oh yes!” The Master sneered, “BEHOLD!” The Master raised up a device the looked strangely like... “A Sonic Screwdriver!” The Doctor gasped. “No, a LASER SCREWDRIVER!” The Master grabbed the Laser Screwdriver in his teeth, and a instead of the blue light that came from the Sonic Screwdriver, a red light came from this. The Doctor smirked, and dove out of the way as the beam of light sailed towards him. “NO!” The Master shrieked as he realized what was going to happen. The laser connected with the Transfer Device, and it exploded into a thousand tiny fragments. “TRIXIE YOU PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A SHOW PONY, FIX IT!” Wailed the Master. Trixie didn’t reply. She had been knocked unconscious. “A thousand curses Doctor!” The Master shook his hoof angrily at the Doctor, “I will devise another plan, just you wait!” The Doctor stared at him, and then laughed. “Yes, well, good day to you Master,” The Doctor said, “Now exuse me, I need to go back to the TARDIS!” “It’s too late.” “Pardon?” “It’s too late,” The Master repeated, a terrible smile twisting on his face, “I know what you want Doctor, but you have failed!” “What do you mean!” The Doctor asked casually, although fear was nipping at his heart. “The Quadrature Angles!” The Master rasped, “They have passed! The sun, moon, and earth were lined up five minutes ago! Now they have passed!” “Great, just great,” The Doctor grumbled, “That was your plan after all wasn’t it? That machine didn’t serve any purpose! You just wanted my plan to save Derpy fail, didn’t you?” He guessed. “Oh no, it served purpose, I just hoped you’d brought your Unicorn friend with you....” “Errrghh!” “You must swear not to tell anyone Doctor! Swear to time you will not!” “But of course Master!” And with that, the Doctor turned his back on the Master and trotted out the door. It took the Doctor nearly an hour to find his way out of the Master’s lair. When he finally found the exit (A long flight of stairs that led to a set of double doors) he was panting, and extremely irritated. The doctor threw open the double doors, and landed back on all four hooves, and walked outside into the fresh air. First thing the Doctor noticed. The air was not fresh. It smelled like gunpowder and pain. “YOU!” Second thing he noticed: Nightmare Moon was back.She cracked the pavement as she hit the ground next to the Doctor who merely smiled. “Good evening Princess Luna!” “I AM NOT PRINCESS LUNA ANYMORE!” Luna screamed, “YOUR PRINCESS REQUESTS THAT YOU MUST CALL HER NIGHTMARE MOON ONCE AGAIN!” “Ah, so what made you into Nightmare Moon once again?” The Doctor frowned. “‘Twas Hasbro!” Luna snapped, “The wretched humans stopped putting us on a show ever since Derpy Hooves’s demise! Derpy was a faithful subject of mine. The Mail Mare! Brought me many requests from stallions for me to marry them.” Luna let out a dreamy sigh, and the Doctor recoiled, looking disgusted, “Then Derpy stopped giving me those letters, and some low class stallion started doing the job. IT WAS THEN WHEN I REALIZED HOW FOOLISH I WAS TO SETTLE INTO THIS LIFE, WHEN IT DID NOT NEED A PRINCESS! WE DID NOT NEED ONE BECAUSE THERE WERE ALREADY RULES TO START WITH! SO I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO TRY AND GET RID OF MY SISTER, FOREVER! MUHAHAHA!” “And have you succeeded?” The Doctor asked, and Luna smirked. “Yes I have!” She announced, “No Princess was needed after I sealed Celestia into the moon!” “Just as you had been sealed!” The Doctor murmured. “You are a bright one! What is your name?” Luna asked suddenly. “Er, Doctor Whooves,” He answered uncertainty. (It is a well known fact the Doctor doesn’t like revealing his identity) “Ah, the one they call ‘the Doctor is it?” Luna said, “Yes I remember you, but you disappeared a hundred years ago! And such, STEP FORWARD TWILIGHT SPARKLE!” The purple unicorn trotted up beside Luna, except for she wasn’t a Unicorn anymore. “Celestia’s faithful student, now Nightmare Moon’s favorite slave,” Luna said, running a hoof under Twilight’s chin. Twilight glared at Luna, and slapped her hoof away, “She needs to grow into it. Anyways, Twilight Sparkle has been overcome with grief, ever since her friend’s deaths. Now Doctor Whooves, I have made Twilight Sparkle into the unthinkable!” “Please help!” Twilight whispered to the Doctor, “Please!” “I can’t,” The Doctor muttered back, “This is much too complicated for me to handle, but I am almost certain that Nightmare Moon will go back to Princess Luna, and free Princess Celestia from the moon.” “OK.” “NOW BEHOLD, A REAL SLAVE OF IMMORTALITY!” Luna screamed. And her horn began to glow. “Please don’t make her do that without her own free will!” The Doctor said shielding his eyes from whatever may happen. “What do you mean?” Luna asked suddenly. “Well, I'm not quite sure she wants to show that off.” The Doctor said. “‘Tis no problem to me!” Luna announced, “Ahem, NOW BEHOLD, A REAL SLAVE OF IMMORTALITY!” The Doctor put his hoof back on the ground, and opened his eyes as Luna ripped two wings from Twilight’s side open with her telekinesis. “Your, your an Alicorn!” The Doctor gasped. And slowly, Twilight Sparkle nodded. Changeling Empire“Derpy Hooves,” A sweet evil voice wafted out from someplace Derpy didn’t know and she woke with a start, “My sweet little pawn. So far you have come, so far.” Derpy sat up and looked around. “Who are you?” She asked uncertainty. “Why, you should remember me.” A strange creature emerged from the shadows. “Queen Chrysalis!” Derpy said. “Yes,” The Changeling Queen said, “Me.” “Why did you take me here?” Derpy demanded. “Why, my sweet little pawn, you were going to be deleted! I needed some experiments done on you!” Chrysalis said with an evil cackle. “Wait, what kind of experiments?” “The kind that make you laugh,” Chrysalis said with a shrug. “NO!” Derpy screamed, “I don’t trust you! You’re going to hurt me!” She started to run towards the window, when a Changeling stopped her. “Oh no yer don’t!” It growled. “Yes I DO!” Derpy screamed, and broke the rope tying her wings together, and she jumped up above the Changeling and stopped at the windowsill. “Stop!” Chrysalis said angrily. “No thank you!” Derpy replied, and jumped out the window, and soared outwards toward freedom. Author's Note Should I make a sequel? I dunno. What do you guys think? Doctor Whooves“I don’t know if I can help you Derpy,” Doctor Whooves said thoughtfully. “You gotta try!” Derpy insisted, “I’m scared....what will they do to me?” “I don’t know Derpy,” The Doctor said, “Nothing like this has ever happened on the show before.” Derpy gave him a pleading look. “I’ll try,” The Doctor said and raced off. He appeared five minutes later, shaking his head, on the other side of Sugarcube Corner. “So?” Fluttershy said earnestly. “I can’t,” He said, looking stricken, “It’s too complex for the TARDIS to handle.” “The TARDIS?” Twilight asked. “Nevermind,” The Doctor said quickly, “The point is we can’t do anything to change Derpy’s future. It’s already sealed into time. If only I could’ve come earlier...”The Doctor’s eyes lit up in surprise. “Doctor?” Twilight asked uncertainty. “Are ya’ll alright?” Applejack said, concerned. “Can your idea save me?” Derpy asked, as the Doctor thought. “Maybe!” The doctor said, and raced off. “WAIT!” Pinkie screeched, “YOU NEVER TOLD US WHAT YOUR PLAN WAS!” “Pinkie Pie,” Twilight laughed, “He doesn't have to tell you his plan. If I know the Doctor well enough, Derpy will be saved within the hour.” “But what if he doesn’t?” Fluttershy asked, “What if he fails! Derpy will be erased forever in Demon Land with crazed monkeys and dinosaurs!” “Yeah!” Derpy agreed. “She won’t,” Twilight assured her, “Come on everypony, lets go to Canterlot.” “Why in the world would ya’ll want ter go THERE?” Applejack demanded. “Just a feeling I’ve got,” Twilight smiled mysteriously. Her friends and Derpy looked at her. “A feeling you’ve got?” Derpy said, rolling her mismatched eyes, (Which looked very strange) “Yeah right.” “Yeah Twilight,” Fluttershy agreed, “I mean, what proof do you have that it’s a feeling?” “I don’t think I need proof,” Twilight said, “Come on!” The ponies got up, and raced towards the path that would take them to the train station. Author's Note Yes short, I know, don't kill me! :)
BubblesDerpy Hooves woke up warm in her bed, Miss Sweetie, her doll, clutched closely to her chest. Snow was falling gently to the ground. Derpy smiled a little. She loved snow. She got up and with Miss Sweetie sitting on her lap, Derpy pressed her hooves to the window, and put her face up close to it, her breath making steamy mist on her window. Other fillies and colts were already galloping outside, and making snowponies and tossing snowballs at each other. Suddenly, a snowball slapped into Derpy’s window, and Derpy leapt back in terror, Miss Sweetie falling from her lap onto the floor. She opened her window. “WHAT WAS THAT FOR?” She bellowed. “Want another one freak? Straight to the face?” Called a pony named Kettle Drum. His horn was alight with green magic and another snowball levitated next to him. Derpy shrank back a little. “Why are you so mean to me?” Derpy asked, “What have I ever done to you?” Kettle Drum snarled and his snowball whipped through the air and hit Derpy in the face. “‘Cause freak,” He called, “you’re different! Besides, we’d rather hang with Dash now then with you.” Derpy wiped the snow from her face, tears in her eyes. “What’s wrong with being different?” She asked as she slid her window shut again. Derpy jumped from her bed, Miss Sweetie held tightly in her jaws. “Hey kid, what’s wrong?” Mom asked when Derpy sat down. “Nothing,” Mumbled Derpy. Mom smiled and put a muffin on a plate. “Eat it, kid,” Mom said, “Your gonna need it.” Derpy ate her muffin and took her sack lunch and hid Miss Sweetie inside her saddlebag. She opened the door of her house, and got a faceful of snow. Derpy wiped her face again. “Better go inside again, freak!” Kettle Drum shouted, another snowball levitating beside him. Derpy took a deep breath , and walked outside into the snow. Kettle Drum’s snowball whipped through the air, and without any conscious thought, Derpy smacked the snowball with her hind legs, sending it whizzing through the air, and straight at Kettle Drum. It smacked him, and Derpy gasped. “I’m sorry Kettle Drum! I didn’t mean to!” She said. “Yeah right you weirdo!” Kettle Drum spat and ran off after his friends. Derpy bit back tears. She struggled to school where Mrs. Blossomforth was taking roll call. “Derpy Hooves?” She called. Derpy jumped into her seat. “Here!” Derpy replied. Mrs. Blossomforth continued calling names and Derpy got bored. She looked at her neighbor, Cheerilee, and she just smirked and turned away. “And, Cheerilee!” Mrs. Blossomforth finished. “I’m he-re!” Cheerilee sang. “Right, today everypony we will be learning about bubbles and what they can do for you. I will hand out a bubble carton to each pony, and you must each blow ONE BUBBLE ONLY. If you blow more than one bubble, then you will be failed!” “Mrs. Blossomforth!” Called Rainbow Dash, “What do you mean ‘we will be failed?’” “Well you will just fail the educational system,” Mrs. Blossomforth said simply, “Now....Kettle Drum? Do you mind passing the bubble cartons out to everypony?” “No Mrs. Blossomforth!” Kettle Drum said. He got up and his horn glowed green again. The bubble cartons zoomed from Mrs. Blossomforth’s desk and each landed on everpony’s desk lightly, except for Derpy. The carton tipped over, and splashed Derpy with bubble sauce! She tumbled from her chair and lay on the floor. Then ponies began to laugh at Derpy and Derpy began to cry. “What is going on here?” Demanded Mrs. Blossomforth. “I just don’t know what went wrong!” Derpy sobbed. “Kettle Drum....” Mrs. Blossomforth said, her voice dangerously calm. All of the students shrank back a little. “Derpy knocked it over Mrs. Blossomforth!” Kettle Drum lied, “I placed it on her desk, and Derpy just knocked it all over herself!” “That ain’t what Ah saw!” A little filly named Applejack frowned. “Na, I saw it!” Rainbow Dash leaned back in her seat, “I saw Derpy hit the carton with her hooves.” “See! Thank you Dash!” Kettle Drum sighed in relief. “Ah’m tellin’ ya’ll Kettle Drum abused his magic, and tipped the bubble carton onto Derpy’s lap!” Applejack insisted. “We do not have all day!” Mrs. Blossomforth snarled, and grabbed Derpy’s empty bubble carton and refilled it with a bit of bubble sauce from her desk. Then, Mrs. Blossomforth replaced the bubble carton on Derpy’s desk. “Now, before I was rudely interrupted,” Mrs. Blossomforth said and Derpy got back in her seat, “Each of you must blow one bubble and see what happens. If nothing happens, we will try again and again until the bubbles are gone.” Derpy took the bubble stick and dipped it into her bubble sauce. She blew on it, and a bubble sailed out of the stick. She was the first to accomplish. Cheerilee’s sauce kept dripping off her stick, and Rainbow Dash repeatedly kept slashing her stick into her bubble sauce. “How does this work?” Rainbow Dash moaned. At last, the room was full of bubbles (Except for Rainbow Dash, who was still slashing repeatedly. Racing was obviously her thing) “Right, do it again!” Mrs. Blossomforth, who sounded as though she wouldn’t have expected anything less of her class. They repeated and repeated until the bubble cartons were empty. Beside Derpy, Cheerilee gasped. “Mrs. Blossomforth! Mrs. Blossomforth! Look, Derpy...her flank.....!” Derpy looked at her, confused. “What about it?” Derpy asked. People around Derpy began to gasp. “Well, what do you know!” Applejack said, “Somethin’ interestin’ DID happen Mrs. Blossomforth!” Derpy looked around confused. “What?” She asked. “Derpy, you, you just got your, your...” Rainbow Dash stuttered. “Wow, just wow!” Kettle Drum said. Derpy was starting to get irritated. “WHAT IS IT?” She shouted. “Derpy,” Cheerilee said, “You just got your cutie mark!” Derpy whipped her head around to look at her flank. Sure enough, six bubbles were on her side. Derpy gasped.
The Derpy Decision: Hasbro's Biggest BubblebrainDerpy was trotting along Las Pegasus, looking around at the bright and flashing lights. Every pegasus pony there seemed to be avoiding her as they noticed her. “D....Derpy?” Said a pegasus Derpy had never seen before trotted up to her. “Hi!” Derpy said, “What do you want?” “You might want to go and see the Movie Theater,” The pegasus said, “There’s uh, something you might want to see.” Perplexed, Derpy galloped towards Mare Street. She turned and saw a tremendously long line of ponies all standing in line at the Movie Theater. When Derpy approached, they all scattered muttering to themselves.Derpy looked up at the shimmering display of the new movie, The Derpy Desicion: Hasbro’s biggest bubblehead. “Am I really a bubblebrain?” Derpy wondered, but she went into the movie anyways. She sat down and watched as the movie screen unfolded before her. “Derpy Hooves,” Said a voice, “Hasbro’s biggest argument, Equestria’s biggest troublemaker. Without meaning to, Derpy destroys things, but recent events must be taken into account. “Soccer moms have found Derpy ‘offensive’ ever since she first spoke in season two, the last roundup, episode fourteen. They found Derpy attention-loving and a pony with a mental disorder because of her eyes. “‘The show must go on without Derpy,’ Says Rainbow Dash, ‘Wait, are you guys doing an article, or show?’” Derpy cocked her head. It seemed like a newspaper to her too. “Odd,” She murmured. “Derpy Hooves has been a good pony and we will all miss her,” Said the voice in the background, “But Hasbro has decided. We will miss you Derpy Hooves.” The screen lit up and a slideshow of Derpy’s best moments slid by... Derpy emerged from the movie three hours later her head buzzing and hot tears blazing at her eyes. “I just don’t know what went wrong!” She said miserably. “Derpy Hooves?” Said a pony cautiously walking up to Derpy, “I was asked to give you this. I...it’s from Twilight Sparkle.” Derpy took the letter with a note of thanks and unrolled it on the clouds underneath her. Dearest Derpy Hooves, I have heard of the new movie, ‘The Derpy Decision: Hasbro’s biggest bubblehead’ and you have my sincerest apologies for you. It must be terrifying of the idea that you will never walk the paths and clouds of Equestria again. Derpy shuddered at this point; it wasn’t soothing her nerves. But we just (ALL of my friends, including Rainbow Dash) wanted you to know that it won’t be so bad and you will be in muffin land when you vanish forever. We will all miss you. The show will go on, but it will be empty. Our sincerest apologies Derpy. Celestia’s faithful student and her friends, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack. AND SPIKE! Derpy choked a little as she crumpled the paper into a ball and dumped it into the nearest trash can. “Curse you Twilight Sparkle!” She muttered, “You just made it worse.” “DERPYYYYY!” A loud screech made Derpy look up. A butter-colored pegasus with a pink mane was bouncing towards Derpy. Derpy’s immediate thought was Fluttershy, but Fluttershy wasn’t that loud, but another pegasus with a rainbow colored mane and tail appeared behind the butter-colored pegasus, flying towards Derpy, she realized Rainbow Dash had spoken, and the butter-colored pegasus wasn’t bouncing. It was trotting, her head low. Rainbow Dash landed next to Derpy, her wings brick stiff, and glaring at Derpy with great dislike. “Derpy, your comin’ with me,” Dash said firmly. “I mean, you don’t HAVE to, but it would be nice to come,” The butter-colored pegasus had caught up with them, and Derpy realized that it was indeed Fluttershy. “I’m not coming,” Derpy told Rainbow Dash angrily, “I’m going home.” Then, without another word, Derpy spread her wings and took off, faster than she had ever gone before in her life. Behind Derpy however, Dash let out a string of colorful words, (Fluttershy looked scandalized) and took off after Derpy, creating a Sonic Rainboom as she went. Dash soared around looking for Derpy, and after searching for about five minutes, Dash spotted her lurking on a cloud, looking around cautiously. Dash dove and Derpy saw her, and took off again. Dash landed on the cloud, swore and jumped from the cloud after Derpy. (And creating yet another Sonic Rainboom as she went) Meanwhile, Derpy was diving around clouds as a fantastic rainbow color exploded to life above her. “A Sonic Rainboom!” Derpy breathed, and dove again, accidentally destroying a cloud. “DERPY HOOVES YOU PATHETIC BAKA! GET OVER HERE NOW!” Came Dash’s voice. Derpy gulped and dove underneath the cloud layer, and into the silver sheets of rain. Lightning flashed and Derpy whimpered. There was a little poof from behind Derpy and she twisted around. Dash was racing towards her. “I’M NOT COMING!” Derpy screamed, and swerved to the left. Dash tried to brake as she hurtled towards a cloud, but her head slammed into it anyways. Rainbow Dash pulled her head out of the cloud, and swore again. “I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!” Dash cursed, “Why does Pinkie Pie even WANT to throw a ‘farewell Derpy Hooves party?’” Anger and other emotions built inside Dash, and she screamed, and dove after the distant shape of Derpy, heading for the outskirts of Ponyville, where her home USED to be. Dash caught up with Derpy easily, and grabbed Derpy’s wings binding them tightly together. “OUCH!” Derpy howled. “Put a sock in it,” Dash grumbled, “I’m not happy about this either.” Dash lowered Derpy onto the streets of Ponyville, and grabbed her tail in her teeth. Dash tugged on Derpy’s tail, and with just plain brute force, dragged Derpy to Sugarcube Corner. “I don’t wanna go in!” Whined Derpy as Dash dragged Derpy towards the shop, drenched with sweat and rainwater. Ignoring Derpy, Dash spat out Derpy’s tail, and tapped on the door with her hoof three times. The door swung anonymously from the inside. Derpy got up, massaging her wings. “Get in, Derpy,” Dash growled and Derpy obeyed without hesitation. She bounded in followed by Dash. Rainbow Dash closed the door, and the lights popped on. “SURPRISE!” Half a dozen ponies in party hats bounded from random hiding places around the lobby of Sugarcube Corner. Derpy cast a wary eye and around, and reluctantly walked forward, her hoofsteps making a clopping noise which pressed on everypony’s ears in the silence that had descended upon the quiet party. The door creaked open and Fluttershy crawled in, drenched and shivering. “Surprise?” Her tone made it a question as she lay on the ground shivering. “Ah really thought that Derpy would’ve smiled by now. Didn’t ya’ll think the same thing Big Mac?” Applejack asked her brother quietly. “Eeeyup,” Big Macintosh replied in his deep voice. Derpy stopped suddenly her wing strapped to her sides. She noticed Pinkie Pie, whose hair was starting to get flatter and flatter, and her playful smile was vanishing. “Ah advise either runnin’ or smilin’. Ah reckon ya'll should smile,” Applejack hissed. Derpy thought for a second. She eventually decided, and plastered a huge fake smile over her face. Pinkie’s hair popped back up. “LET’S GET JAMMIN’!” She squealed, and started to play music. Author's Note Just so you guys know, I made this years ago, so don't flame me for it being bad, or Dashie's mean behavior to Derpy!
Trying to Save DerpyUnnoticed by the party crowd (Except for Big Macintosh) Derpy had disappeared from the party for quite a while. In fact, Derpy had slipped into the kitchen, opened the window in the kitchen, and jumped outside into the the freezing rain. She was currently shivering as she walked towards her home. “Somepony, ANYPONY, please help me!” Derpy cried, “I’m sorry!” She hoped Hasbro could hear her, but nothing happened, except the sky darkened, and more rain tumbled down. Derpy broke down entirely and fear built inside her. Derpy started to run towards her house, her hooves getting muddy and splashing in random puddles, drenching random ponies. When Derpy arrived at her home, it had vanished. Miss Sweetie was on the ground, her head ripped off. “Miss Sweetie!” Derpy gasped staring at her favorite childhood doll. “No, no, NO!” She said galloping towards Miss Sweetie. She picked it up and cradled it in her hooves. Barely a second had passed since Derpy had picked up her doll when it vanished with a puff of smoke. Derp looked at her hoofs and saw nothing. She curled up on the muddy ground and began to cry, fear washing over her like a large blanket of doom. Ahem... WARNING: I AM ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE. *Insert sad music here* Eventually Derpy got up and passed around through Ponyville, her head hung low. She looked up occasionally to stare at other ponies, without a care in the world, not about to be deleted. She muttered under her breath, and stared at her reflection in a dark window. She moved on to Sugarcube Corner and pressed a hoof on the glass to the party going on inside, wishing she could be there too, actually enjoying herself. She sobbed a little as she noticed the cake. In Mrs. Cake’s elegant handwriting was: Farewell Derpy Hooves Derpy galloped off, once or twice catching her wall-eyed reflection in puddles. Derpy eventually slowed to a trot as she entered the Ponyville Box Emporium. All it consisted of was boxes. Derpy searched in the Ponyville Box Emporium trying to find a suitable home for her. Eventually, Derpy found a large box, and wrote: Muffin Home In large, bolded letters. Then she found a copy of the old Ponyville Express, and placed it on the top of her box. Derpy dragged it too the place where her house had been and slid inside the box. Within seconds, water was dripping onto the floor of the box because the newspaper was so wet. Derpy curled up, wishing Miss Sweetie was here with her. Miss Sweetie just has a way of making her feel safe, but her doll was gone, where Derpy could not call it back. Tears came to Derpy’s eyes before she could stop them, but why wipe them away? Derpy let them fall, her lips pressed tightly together. Eventually, Derpy fell into a miserable sleep. *Stop sad music* In the human world, all Bronies and Pegasisters of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, became enraged about Hasbro’s decision. Many of them set to work, hoping to save Derpy Hooves of the horrors awaiting her when she was deleted from existence..................... When Derpy awoke the next morning, she expected to be in bed with Miss Sweetie, but she was in her Muffin Home. Realization of what happened yesterday washed over Derpy and she began to cry again, fear blanketing her. “Derpy!” The sharp cry made Derpy sit up, her messy and unkempt mane brushing the top of the wet newspaper. Suddenly the soaking newspaper was ripped off and cast aside by some force. Twilight Sparkle’s head appeared above Derpy, grinning ear-to-ear. It was then that Derpy realized that Twilight Sparkle had used her telekinesis to lift the newspaper and cast it aside. “Oh, hi. What do YOU want?” Derpy asked glumly, turning away from Twilight’s happy eager face. “There is something you’ve got to see!” Was Twilight’s reply. “What is it about?”Derpy asked, still not looking at Twilight. “I can’t explain it,” Twilight said impatiently. She used her telekinesis to lift Derpy out of her Muffin Home and pulled her over to the library. Soon they arrived, and the first thing Derpy saw was all of Twilight Sparkle’s friends. “You brought Derpy to the library,” Rainbow Dash said incredibly, “Really?” “Yes,” Twilight said, stopping Derpy from throwing open the door of the library and running off with the simple act of using her telekinesis to grab hold of the end of Derpy’s tail. Then she magicked a key over to the door of the library, and turned it in the lock. “You’re locking her into the library with us?” Rarity gaped, “Darling, you surely can’t be serious!” Twilight looked at her and raised an eyebrow. “Wee hoo!” Pinkie Pie said happily. “No, not ‘wee hoo!’” Dash said, “Twilight just sealed our own demise!” “Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said warningly. “She’ll knock over all the shelfs, sending us into a river of books!” Dash said, flying to a shelf full of books, and knocking it over, in an impersonation of Derpy. Derpy looked severely hurt. “Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said angrily, as her horn glowed pink and the shelf soared back to it’s original position, and the books whizzed back on the shelf. “Or, or,” Dash seemed to be casting around for another random thing Derpy might do, “Derpy might bonk into Spike,” At this, Spike looked alarmed that he was being brought into the conversation as well, “And set the whole library on fire! Then we'll burn to death!” Dash bonked into Spike, trying to act like Derpy again, and green flames erupted from Spike’s mouth and torched the nearest book. “Hey!” Twilight said indignantly, “I was using that!” “Twilight, UNLOCK THE DOOR!” Rarity breathed. “Actually, I don’t think you guys are being fair to Derpy,” Fluttershy murmured. “Ah’m startin’ ter see Rainbow Dash’s point ya’ll,” Applejack pointed out, “Derpy’s a bull in a china shop! She’s gonna break every single thing in here.” “Now, let’s not jump to any conclusions,” Fluttershy whispered. “I for one think Derpy should be kicked out of the library,” Rarity proclaimed. “See Twilight,” Dash said, “They get my point.” “Well, what about Fluttershy!” Twilight argued, “You haven’t seen her perspective!” “I for one think Derpy...” Fluttershy began quietly. “And you haven’t seen Spike’s perspective yet!” Twilight interrupted, glaring at Rainbow Dash, “I think YOU should be the one kicked out! You torched the Reference Guide to the Elements of Harmony! You also knocked over a shelf I had organized in a very specific pattern! I have to start all over!” Dash looked sheepish. “Stop right there!” Applejack cried, as she, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie rushed over in front of Rainbow Dash, “There ain’t no good reason for ya’ll ter kick Rainbow Dash out of the library!” “This may be your home Twilight!” Rarity said indignantly, “But it does not mean you can so RUDELY kick somepony out of it!” Twilight’s horn glowed brightly in anger. “Just give her a chance!” Twilight roared. “Oh dear!” Fluttershy said in a small voice, and along with Derpy, both of them seemed to melt into the shadows. “What has Derpy EVER done to you?” Twilight snarled, “Why can’t you give her a chance. She’ll be out of your manes in a few months! So WHY DON’T YOU LIVE WITH HER FOR A WHILE AND STOP BEING IGNORANT PONY HEADS!” Breathing heavily Twilight turned to the shadows in which Fluttershy was lurking, “What do you think Fluttershy?” Twilight demanded angrily. Fluttershy looked alarmed, but calmed soon enough. “Well, I think that since Derpy will be deleted soon, that Rainbow Dash and the others should stop being so mean to her, and actually give her a chance!” Fluttershy said. “Right, Spike? What do you think about this?” Twilight said, turning to the purple dragon who looked positively alarmed. “I um...” Spike spluttered. “Spit it out already!” Dash said. “I think Derpy should stay ‘cause she doesn’t realize that she might have a chance,” Spike squeaked. “A chance? A chance at what?” Derpy, hearing Spikes stutters, emerged from her shadowy corner. “Twilight!” Spike looked pleadingly at her, and Twilight sighed. She used her telekinesis to open the shutters, illuminating the room in light. She magicked a large computer onto a table cluttered with books. Perching it precariously onto the table, Twilight turned the device on by pressing some sort of button with her nose. “What is that?” Derpy asked approaching the computer. “It’s called a computer,” Twilight explained, as her friends behind her looked amazed, “It’s a device that you can do so many things on, just hard to explain the basics. Well...” “Hey Twi, can I use that sometime?” Dash interrupted. Twilight gave her a furious look, and continued. “Starswirl the Bearded came up with this idea. Princess Celestia was very fortunate to come across this one if the Starswirl the Bearded wing when I started freaking out about the ‘disaster that never came.’ She sent it to me during one of the breaks we had in between the shows. I’ve kept it hidden ever since.” “Does Hasbro know you have it?” Derpy asked stupidly. Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Twilight rolled their eyes, knowing the obvious answer. “No,” Pinkie Pie said dryly. “OK!” Derpy gurgled brightly. The computer turned on and Twilight moved the mouse to the internet icon, and clicked it. “What is that?” Derpy said, frowning at the mouse. “Its called a mouse,” Twilight explained. “A mouse?” Derpy said thinking, “Like, the thing that cats like to chase?” “Thank GOODNESS Opal Essence doesn’t chase those horrid things,” Rarity shuddered. “Or DOES she?” Pinkie Pie said mysteriously. “Does she?” Rarity asked. “I dunno,” Pinkie shrugged, which was an odd sight on a pony. Twilight glared at them, and continued explaining what a mouse was. “In the book Celestia recovered from the Starswirl the Bearded Wing a mouse is what controls the little pointer thingy on the screen,” She said. “Oh,” Derpy said, nodding. The internet had now booted up, and Twilight clicked on some online thing called Youtube. There she typed in ‘Save Derpy Hooves’ and hit enter on the keyboard. Only one video popped up. “This is it!” Twilight said. After loading for a bit, it started to play, talking about how Derpy wasn’t bad, and how unfair Hasbro was being to Derpy. At the end of the video, Derpy just sat there with her mouth half open, staring at the screen. “Alright video’s over!” Dash said, picking Derpy up by her wings again, and plopping Derpy outside after unlocking the door. “Ah’d better head back ter the barn ya’ll,” Applejack’s voice came, “Rainbow, just leave the door unlocked fer me.” A second later, Applejack emerged from the library, trotting towards Sweet Apple Acres. Over the course of time, more ‘save Derpy Hooves’ videos popped out on Youtube, including a ‘Save Derpy Hooves!’ website which you could sign, but nothing lifted Derpy’s spirits, and a dull hopelessness started to wind it’s way out of her heart and around her body. Nothing was seeming to happen to her, thought Derpy as she looked around at her beloved Ponville. No, actually, nothing WAS happening. Miss Sweetie hadn’t returned, whole and undamaged, and Derpy’s house still remained the Muffin Home, on the grounds of her old home which had mysteriously vanished. There were entire nights where Derpy would curl up in a small little ball inside her Muffin Home, and just cry as fear and pain flew inside her, like a small winged creature, trying to force itself out of her stomach. One day, Derpy finally decided to ask for help from her fellow Ponyvillians. She searched the Ponyville Box Emporium again, and found a suitable box for her cause. There she cut until a large sign could be made.Derpy placed it (P.S, This is the kind of sign with a back you can adjust to whatever angle you want it) on the sidewalk by Sugarcube Corner, and a little tin next to it for money. Then Derpy borrowed a marker from Pinkie Pie, and wrote: Save me! -Derpy Hooves Derpy drew her face next to the writing, but by the end of the day, Derpy had no money. Everypony in Ponyville just thought Derpy WANTED money. “No, wait!” Derpy would try and explain, “Really, I’m going to be deleted from the show by Hasbro! Haven’t you guys seen the movie?” The Ponyvillians would just look at Derpy skeptically, and trot away. “Aww, come on sugarcube!” Applejack said as she and her friends (Rainbow Dash had mysteriously vanished) spotted Derpy by her sign, drawing frowny faces in the ground with her hoof, “You’re not gonna be deleted!” “Tell that to Hasbro,” Derpy muttered, turning to her wall-eyed reflection in the Sugarcube Corner window. “Well, actually, Hasbro is really considering bringing you back onto the show!” Twilight told Derpy who just gave Twilight a skeptical look, and turned away. “Honest!” Fluttershy murmured, “We’ve been at Twilight’s house every day, and she’s been looking up Youtube, and there are so many videos now! Then we looked up Hasbro.com and it actually said that some of the workers at Hasbro wanted you back on to keep the fans of My Little Pony, but other workers aren’t so keen on the idea.” “YAY!” Pinkie Pie screamed happily, “DERPY’S BACK ON!” “Not really,” Twilight pointed out, “Lauren Faust, the producer and leader of our show is against Derpy. She’s going to delete her.” “Great!” Derpy groaned, and plopped on the ground, sobbing. “Come on now sugarcube!” Applejack said, “You ain’t got a thin’ ya’ll need ter worry about. They’ll get Faust ter see right. Yer not a bad pony ya’ll, and ya’ll jest need ter calm down. Ah’m serious.” “Is there a problem Derpy Hooves?” Said a mild voice. The ponies turned around, and gasped. “Doctor Whooves?” Derpy wondered. The doctor laughed. “Yup!” The caramel colored pony said. “Well, do you think you might solve Derpy’s horrible problem?” Twilight asked. “Depends on what it is,” The Doctor said. “Well...” Pinkie sucked in all the breath she could take, “Derpy’sgoingtobedeletedbyHasbroandsoTwilightheredecidedtotakeDerpyunderherwingsosheshowedDerpyhercomputer,andwentoawebsitecalledYoutube.ThenTwilighttypedin’SaveDerpyHooves!” Pinkie said quickly, “Thena ‘SaveDerpyHoovesthingpoppedoutonYoutube,onthecomputerPrincessCelestiagaveTwilightandwewatchedthevideo,butDerpy’sstillreallyupsetsomaybeyoucouldhelpherwithitandmakeherbehappyandsmileabunchagain,andjoinpartiesandnotdisappearfromthemfortheentiretimethatthepartyisgoingon,” Pinkie collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily from her rant. “Pardon?” The doctor said, and Pinkie repeated what she just said, slower this time. “Ohhhh!” The ponies said (Except for Pinkie) when Pinkie Pie was finished. “Um, YEAH!” Pinkie huffed, her eyes narrowed angrily.
The Master The Master Doctor Whooves opened the door of his small blue telephone box and slid inside it. He typed in the coordinates and clicked the ‘go’ button. There was a whirl of colors, and the Doctor appeared in the middle of the night, the party in Sugarcube Corner loud and rowdy. He opened the door, and slipped outside of the TARDIS, and ducked behind a bush as Derpy approached him. “Psst, Derpy!” The Doctor hissed. Derpy looked into the party inside Sugarcube Corner, and sighed, tears in her eyes. “Derpy!” The Doctor repeated urgently. Derpy looked up, and trotted towards the Doctor. “Doctor Whooves!” Derpy said in surprise, “What are you doing here?” “I’m here to save you,” The Doctor said, “Hurry, into the TARDIS, we haven’t got much time.” “The TARDIS?” Derpy asked quizzically. “It’s the phone booth,” The Doctor groaned. Derpy trotted inside the TARDIS, and was quickly followed by the Doctor who closed the door of the blue phone booth. He typed a few things into the keypad, and the TARDIS shuddered, but did nothing. The Doctor groaned again. “Great,” He muttered, “Time is not my favorite mistress.” “Can you save me?” Derpy asked curiously. “No!” The Doctor fumed, “I can’t! Lauren Faust knows about me and made sure I couldn’t do anything about this situation! They must have some sort of device that protects the Human World from crossing over to this word. The quadrature angle of the moon is not quite right! For this to accomplish the moon, Earth, and the sun must be completely lined up! I must have to go forwards a hundred years to get this to work!” The doctor’s face lit up, “That’s it!” He said excitedly, while the past Derpy looked utterly confused, “The TARDIS can take me, anytime, anywhere in the world, just as long as the circumstances are perfect! Unfortunately, I can’t take you with me Derpy.” The Doctor added, looking a Derpy. “Why?” Derpy asked, her lower lip wobbling, and the Doctor felt his heart lurch in pity. “Well, because it could be too dangerous,” The Doctor said, pressing a button on the control panel. It opened with a small puff of white smoke and the Doctor admired his Sonic Screwdriver. The Doctor picked the device up in his mouth, mumbling about how he didn’t want to repeat the experience (Beating the Heat, chapter something) and took aim at Derpy. “Wait, what’s goin’ on?” Derpy demanded suddenly, but the Doctor pressed a button on his screwdriver and a green light soared out of the Sonic Screwdriver, and hit Derpy. She crumpled. “She’ll wake up in about 15 minutes,” The Doctor muttered to no one, “Gotta get her out of the TARDIS so she won’t remember me, or anything I’ve showed her. The Doctor dragged Derpy outside of this telephone box, and cantered back inside. “Now, let’s see,” He murmured, “100 years into the future, before the quadrature angles are exact!” He pressed the ‘go’ button on the TARDIS’s control panel, and the world dissolved in a blur of colors. The world appeared again in the middle of a dry, deserted landscape. When Doctor Whooves exited the TARDIS, he saw that Sugarcube Corner was just a black stretch of building with an electronic billboard flashing the same words, over and over again. Obey, obey, obey Above these words was a pony the Doctor knew very well, and his blood boiled when he heard that same annoying, lazy drawl. “Why hello, Doctor Whooves.” “Master,” The Doctor replied calmly turning to face his old friend, although his stomach was twisting itself into knots out of anger and resentment. “Pleased to see me,” The Master snarled. The Doctor smirked a little. “No, I cannot say that I am,” He responded with the air of one commenting on the weather, “What has happened here Master? Have you achieved what you wanted to in the last 100 years I’ve been traveling in the TARDIS? Seems you haven’t aged at all.” The Master spat at the Doctor. “I took over this world after Lauren Faust shut us down for good,” the black pony gestured to the electronic billboard where his face was shaking a hoof down at them, “Now the ponies of Equestria fear me! I cannot be stopped! Muahahaha! “Princess Celestia and Princess Luna could get you,” The Doctor reminded his old college. “Yes well,” A little smile twisted at the end of the Master’s mouth at this, “When we were being shut down, Celestia and Luna betrayed us, and escaped to the human world. They are currently doing whatever humans do.” “Bwah?” The Doctor cocked his head, extremely confused. “Celestia. Luna. Go to Human World. They turn into humans when escape. Celestia.Luna. Left ponies in hands of me,” The Master groaned. “Thank you for clearing that up,” The Doctor said, “But I simply must get back inside the TARDIS, so I may go into the human world with Derpy, by the way where's Derpy?” “Gone,” Rasped the Master, “Hasbro deleted her.” “They wouldn’t! They couldn’t!” The Doctor gasped, “There were so many videos...” “The video’s did save her,” The Master agreed, “But the Hasbro turned her into Ditzy Doo, and changed her voice and eyes. Soon after, Hasbro decided to not put her in any shows, so Derpy served no purpose at all. And if you serve no purpose, then you get deleted.” The Doctor raised a hoof to his mouth in horror. “Well Doctor,” The Master said, “May I offer you anything? Coffee, tea? A one way trip to your own demise?” “Bwah?” “Nevermind,” The Master waved his hoof dismissively, “The point is, you’ve fallen right into my trap!” The Master tugged on a random string, and the Doctor fell, down a seemingly bottomless pit. The Doctor fell hard on concrete, and he felt himself black out. Doctor Whooves awoke in a chamber, his head aching, and his hooves chained to the sides of an old concrete wall. “Stupid!” He scolded himself, “You should know better than to fall for Master’s tricks!” The sound of a cruel laugh filled the room, and the Master entered, guffawing gloatingly. “I can’t believe you are so gullible!” He giggled insanely, “A millennia of fighting evil has not been wasted on you!” The Doctor took a deep breath, and took aim with his Sonic Screwdriver, except it wasn’t there! The Doctor looked wildly around and spotted it on a stone table, just beyond his already limited reach. “So, the great Doctor Whooves finally meets his match,” The Master said, with a twisted smile upon his lips. He put a hoof on the Doctor’s chest, a manic gleam in his eyes, “Destroyed utterly by the great MASTER!” He bellowed the last word. The door opened behind the pair, and a very familiar (Perhaps not to Doctor Whooves, but to Twilight Sparkle perhaps) voice rang out towards them. “Hey boss, I finished cleaning the fridge, I made you breakfast, and here’s your clean laundry... ohh. The Great and Powerful Trixie LIKE.” “No, Trixie, it’s not what it looks like!” The Master said moving his hoof away from the Doctor’s chest and waving his front two repeatedly. “I get it!” Trixie sneered, “And it’s gross!” “Trixie, just go,” The Master facehoofed, and pointed towards the open door. “I want to witness this!” Trixie insisted, and seated herself in a plush winged armchair. The Master glowered at Trixie and turned away, and began pacing in front of the Doctor. “Did you really think that Equestria would change?” The Master jeered at the Doctor, “ Celestia and Luna would never leave their subjects, and they have thwarted me multiple times in my plans to take over Equestria! Soon I will get rid of them, but first, I will get rid of YOU! Trixie, fetch the Transfer device!” Trixie groaned. “But this just starting to get interesting!” Trixie protested. “Trixie!” The Master barked, and Trixie left the winged armchair and grumbling, she left the room. “She needed a job,” The Master said, “So I made her my slave!” The Master let out an evil cackle, which didn’t drown out Trixie’s words from the other room. “Employee boss.” The Master groaned. “Fine, I hired her as my employee. Mu. ha. ha. ha,” The Master muttered, his laugh not having the evil passion it just had a moment ago. “Well, your employee doesn’t seem too happy about this appointment,” The Doctor noted, “Does she not get paid? I can fix that you know!” “What do you have in mind?” The Master asked, eyeing the Doctor with suspicion. “Well, a simple blast from my Sonic Screwdriver will...” The Doctor began. “Ha!” The Master cut the caramel colored pony off, “I’m not falling for that trick again!” “I was simply suggesting to zap Trixie with the green button!” The Doctor said indignantly, “Honestly!” The Master glared at the Doctor. “Boss, here’s the transfer thingy mabob!” Trixie had returned, and was using her telekinesis to lift a large and bulky device into the room. She dropped it with a large crash. “Careful dimwit!” The Master snarled, “You don’t want to do more damage!” The Doctor peered as closely as he could, and saw the device had other serious marks of damage on it. If he could just get his Sonic Screwdriver... “We’ll have none of that Doctor!” The Master snapped, grabbing the Sonic Screwdriver swiftly away from the Doctor as the caramel colored pony tried to reach it, “Trixie, take this screwdriver thing!” The Doctor turned his attention to Trixie and she yawned as she used her telekinesis to take his Sonic Screwdriver and levitate it over to her. “So, what does this particular device do?” The Doctor asked casually, a plan formulating in his head. “This wonderful device, this beautiful amazing device, is the one way trip for me taking over Equestria!” The Master cackled, “I shall zap you with it, a simple push of this button will get us to trade bodies! Are you scared yet Doctor?” “Eh,” The Doctor replied, distracted by the fact that Trixie was bobbing his Sonic Screwdriver tantalizingly in front of him. “Nevermind,” The Master said, waving a hoof dismissively, “Once our bodies are switched, I will go to Celestia and Luna! They will consider me to be the good guy, and hand Equestria to me! Muhahahahah!” Then the Master started to rant about the things he would do in the Doctor’s form, while the REAL Doctor Whooves started to put his plan into action. “Trixie,” The Doctor said softly, “Can you give me my Sonic Screwdriver back?” Trixie got out of the armchair, and approached the Doctor. “Your Sonic Screwdriver? Is that what this thing is?” She asked quietly, waggling the Doctor’s screwdriver in his face. “Yes, that’s it,” The Doctor said, “Please, can you give it back, or at least release me by pressing the blue button!” The Doctor looked at Trixie with pleading eyes, “I need to get home!” Trixie felt her heart lurch, and with one trembling hoof, pressed the blue button.
CanterlotDerpy scrambled onto the Friendship Express, her heart beating rapidly. She found the compartment with Twilight Sparkle in it, and she flopped down on the seat next to her. “You won’t believe what I’m remembering!” Derpy said. “Ah don’ think I ever will,” Applejack muttered. “What?” “Nothin’ sugarcube.” “Okay....Well anyway,” Derpy continued, “I remember that Doctor Whooves came to be, and took me to this blue telephone box called the TARDIS. Then he started rambling on about....oh. I don’t remember anything now.” Derpy scratched her head. “What do you MEAN you can’t remember?” Twilight demanded, “You were just talking about it!” “Yeah, I know,” Pinkie agreed, “Seems really weird to me.” “Derpy,” Fluttershy said kindly, “Can you remember anything that happened? Anything at all. It might be very important.” “Why?” Derpy asked. “That memory could’ve told us who the Doctor’s secret identity!” Twilight snapped, “I want to know who he is, and why does he disappear for days at a time, and how he somehow knows what will happen in the future! ARGHHHH!” “Calm yerself down Twi,” Applejack said, “Jest cause Derpy can’t remember nothin’ bout that memory don’t mean that ya’ll can’t figure out what Doctor Whooves’s identity is! Jest take a deep breath and calm yerself down.” Twilight took a deep breath, and held her hoof to her chest. She let out the air at the same time she removed her hoof away from her chest and pointed it outward. “Your right Applejack,” She said,”My mind has been so clouded with these thoughts that I’m too worked up and irritated to see the truth! If I can open my mind, then I’m positive that the real truth will shine out.” What does that have to do with the Doctor’s identity? Derpy thought curiously. “Hey, where’s Spike?” Pinkie asked. The ponies looked around. “He has been really quiet the last few weeks,” Rarity said thoughtfully, “He was with us on the Friendship Express when we got on.” “He must’ve gotten off,” Twilight said as the train lurched; they were leaving the Ponyville Train Station. “Hey guys!” Rainbow Dash flew into the open window. “Rainbow Dash, where did you go?” Twilight demanded angrily. “Just needed to take one of my afternoon naps,” Dash shrugged. “Dashie!” Pinkie pouted, “When we went to visit Derpy you mysteriously melted out of sight! I think you don’t like Derpy!” The other ponies gasped. “No!” Dash insisted, “I like Derpy just fine!” “You’ve never forgiven me, have you?” Derpy whimpered, her lower lip wobbling, and her eyes filling with tears. “No, honestly!” Dash said quickly, “I have forgiven you for torching my tail!” “No, if you had forgive me, you would’ve came comforted me with the others!” Derpy responded. “Dashie!” Pinkie Pie said, “Tell her the truth!” “Rainbow Dash, do you honestly like Derpy?” Twilight asked calmly. “Yes, no, yes!” Dash said. “Ya’ll need ter get ahold of yerself Rainbow Dash,” Applejack said, “Ah need a straight answer from ya’ll! Derpy needs a straight answer from ya’ll! We all need ter get a straight answer from ya’ll! Ain’t that right gals?” Cheers were her reply. “I like Derpy!” Dash insisted angrily. “Dashie, you’ve never been a good liar,” Pinkie giggled. Dash sighed in surrender. “Alright, I don’t like her!” She said, “I’ve had a grudge against ever since she burned my tail. Okay, happy?” “I knew you never forgave me!” Derpy said triumphantly, but her smile quickly faded, and tears filled her eyes, “I’m sorry though Rainbow Dash! I just was so selfish then, and I shouldn’t’ve bounced on the cloud, and destroyed town hall!” Derpy tossed herself forwards and the ground, and broke down completely. Dash bit her wing. She looked up to find her friends looking up at her expectantly. “Go comfort her!” Fluttershy said. “Who, me?” Dash said, looking uncomfortable. “You’re the one who made her cry in the first place!” Pinkie said. “It won’ be so bad,”Applejack assured her, “Just tell her tha’ ya’ll are sorry an’ tha’ ya’ll are gonna be nicer in the future!” “Go on Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said. “Good gravy girl! Just get over there and get the job done already!” Applejack snapped, “If ya’ll were an Apple, ya’ll would do a very good job! It’s an Apple’s duty too...” “Here we go again!” Twilight muttered, barely audible over Derpy’s wailing. “It’s an Apple’s duty, ter be a good pony To try and save them who need to be helped! Here in Sweet Apple Acres, Our duty is to pluck them apples!!!!!” Applejack began singing the Sweet Apple Acres national anthem, and she held the last word very long, and very high. Rarity thought it was fantastic (“Bravo, Applejack! Bravo!”) “Oohhhh, Sweet Apple Acres, is someplace ya’ll posses! Sweet Apple Acres, is a fantastic place! Sweet Apple Acres, is founded on honesty, truth, and loveeeee! And our duty means a lot! The duty is ter pick all them apples! We must be chipper, and never complain, We must treat them apples with respect and love, Because without them, we wouldn’t be the best of them all!” Applejack finished the song on a very high note. “Bravo!” Rarity said, “That was simply wonderful Applejack! Did Granny Smith teach you that one?” “Yup,” Applejack said proudly, “That anthem Granny made up herself when she was a littl’ filly. She taught that song ter Big Mac, and then ter me. I’ll remember it ter my dyin’ day,and when I have children then I’m gonna teach it ter them. So, Rainbow Dash, ya’ll ready?” Rainbow Dash looked up and bit her lip. “Fine,” She muttered, and trotted over to Derpy, who was still sobbing. “L...leave me a.....alone!” Derpy sniffled, “I..I don’t wanna t....talk to y...you.” Dash sat down next to Derpy, her hooves folded underneath her. “Look Derpy,” She said kindly, “I’m sorry OK? I should’ve forgiven you for that. That did happen a long time ago, although the end of my tail is not quite as rainbowy as I would like it” -Derpy sobbed harder than ever at this- “But I forgive you. Tell you what. When we’re back in Ponyville, I’ll get you a muffin from Sugarcube Corner! Sound good?” Derpy looked up at Dash when she had finished, her eyes still swimming with tears. “You mean it?” She asked, wiping her face noisily on her hoof, “You really do?” “No,” Dash said and stood up. “Yay!” Derpy bounded to her hooves, grinning. The first thing the ponies saw upon leaving the train was a bunch of guards. “Princess Celestia would like to see you, Derpy Hooves,” Said one. “Feel free!” Rainbow Dash smirked, and pushed Derpy towards the guards. “What do you want?” Derpy asked curiously. “Just a few experiments,” The second guard said, grinning evilly. “Wait, WHAT?” Derpy yelped. “Derpy, what’s going on?” Twilight screamed, as the six ponies galloped towards the pony. “HEELLLPPPPPPP!” Derpy’s scream hung in the air as the guards tied up Derpy’s wings and flew away into the distance with her. “Oh dear,” Fluttershy said. “Great, how could I have been so STUPID!” Twilight stomped her hoof angrily, “Those must’ve been Changelings!” “But, what are they gonna do ter Derpy?” Applejack said nervously. “I. Don’t. Know!” Twilight replied, her purple eyes growing bigger and bigger with each word.
Equestria's FutureAs soon as Trixie’s hoof pressed the button, a beam of light sailed from the screwdriver, and hit the bonds chaining Doctor Whooves to the concrete. The chains released him, and the Doctor knocked Trixie aside and grabbed his Sonic Screwdriver, as the blue unicorn collided with a concrete wall with a sickening crunch. Not pausing to check on her, the Doctor aimed his Sonic Screwdriver at the Master. “Oh no you don’t!” The Master roared, and leapt at the Doctor. The caramel colored pony skillfully jumped out of the way, his hooves hitting the marble hard, and making a large banging noise. “So, I’ve met my match huh Master?” The Doctor said smugly. “Oh yes!” The Master sneered, “BEHOLD!” The Master raised up a device the looked strangely like... “A Sonic Screwdriver!” The Doctor gasped. “No, a LASER SCREWDRIVER!” The Master grabbed the Laser Screwdriver in his teeth, and a instead of the blue light that came from the Sonic Screwdriver, a red light came from this. The Doctor smirked, and dove out of the way as the beam of light sailed towards him. “NO!” The Master shrieked as he realized what was going to happen. The laser connected with the Transfer Device, and it exploded into a thousand tiny fragments. “TRIXIE YOU PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A SHOW PONY, FIX IT!” Wailed the Master. Trixie didn’t reply. She had been knocked unconscious. “A thousand curses Doctor!” The Master shook his hoof angrily at the Doctor, “I will devise another plan, just you wait!” The Doctor stared at him, and then laughed. “Yes, well, good day to you Master,” The Doctor said, “Now exuse me, I need to go back to the TARDIS!” “It’s too late.” “Pardon?” “It’s too late,” The Master repeated, a terrible smile twisting on his face, “I know what you want Doctor, but you have failed!” “What do you mean!” The Doctor asked casually, although fear was nipping at his heart. “The Quadrature Angles!” The Master rasped, “They have passed! The sun, moon, and earth were lined up five minutes ago! Now they have passed!” “Great, just great,” The Doctor grumbled, “That was your plan after all wasn’t it? That machine didn’t serve any purpose! You just wanted my plan to save Derpy fail, didn’t you?” He guessed. “Oh no, it served purpose, I just hoped you’d brought your Unicorn friend with you....” “Errrghh!” “You must swear not to tell anyone Doctor! Swear to time you will not!” “But of course Master!” And with that, the Doctor turned his back on the Master and trotted out the door. It took the Doctor nearly an hour to find his way out of the Master’s lair. When he finally found the exit (A long flight of stairs that led to a set of double doors) he was panting, and extremely irritated. The doctor threw open the double doors, and landed back on all four hooves, and walked outside into the fresh air. First thing the Doctor noticed. The air was not fresh. It smelled like gunpowder and pain. “YOU!” Second thing he noticed: Nightmare Moon was back.She cracked the pavement as she hit the ground next to the Doctor who merely smiled. “Good evening Princess Luna!” “I AM NOT PRINCESS LUNA ANYMORE!” Luna screamed, “YOUR PRINCESS REQUESTS THAT YOU MUST CALL HER NIGHTMARE MOON ONCE AGAIN!” “Ah, so what made you into Nightmare Moon once again?” The Doctor frowned. “‘Twas Hasbro!” Luna snapped, “The wretched humans stopped putting us on a show ever since Derpy Hooves’s demise! Derpy was a faithful subject of mine. The Mail Mare! Brought me many requests from stallions for me to marry them.” Luna let out a dreamy sigh, and the Doctor recoiled, looking disgusted, “Then Derpy stopped giving me those letters, and some low class stallion started doing the job. IT WAS THEN WHEN I REALIZED HOW FOOLISH I WAS TO SETTLE INTO THIS LIFE, WHEN IT DID NOT NEED A PRINCESS! WE DID NOT NEED ONE BECAUSE THERE WERE ALREADY RULES TO START WITH! SO I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO TRY AND GET RID OF MY SISTER, FOREVER! MUHAHAHA!” “And have you succeeded?” The Doctor asked, and Luna smirked. “Yes I have!” She announced, “No Princess was needed after I sealed Celestia into the moon!” “Just as you had been sealed!” The Doctor murmured. “You are a bright one! What is your name?” Luna asked suddenly. “Er, Doctor Whooves,” He answered uncertainty. (It is a well known fact the Doctor doesn’t like revealing his identity) “Ah, the one they call ‘the Doctor is it?” Luna said, “Yes I remember you, but you disappeared a hundred years ago! And such, STEP FORWARD TWILIGHT SPARKLE!” The purple unicorn trotted up beside Luna, except for she wasn’t a Unicorn anymore. “Celestia’s faithful student, now Nightmare Moon’s favorite slave,” Luna said, running a hoof under Twilight’s chin. Twilight glared at Luna, and slapped her hoof away, “She needs to grow into it. Anyways, Twilight Sparkle has been overcome with grief, ever since her friend’s deaths. Now Doctor Whooves, I have made Twilight Sparkle into the unthinkable!” “Please help!” Twilight whispered to the Doctor, “Please!” “I can’t,” The Doctor muttered back, “This is much too complicated for me to handle, but I am almost certain that Nightmare Moon will go back to Princess Luna, and free Princess Celestia from the moon.” “OK.” “NOW BEHOLD, A REAL SLAVE OF IMMORTALITY!” Luna screamed. And her horn began to glow. “Please don’t make her do that without her own free will!” The Doctor said shielding his eyes from whatever may happen. “What do you mean?” Luna asked suddenly. “Well, I'm not quite sure she wants to show that off.” The Doctor said. “‘Tis no problem to me!” Luna announced, “Ahem, NOW BEHOLD, A REAL SLAVE OF IMMORTALITY!” The Doctor put his hoof back on the ground, and opened his eyes as Luna ripped two wings from Twilight’s side open with her telekinesis. “Your, your an Alicorn!” The Doctor gasped. And slowly, Twilight Sparkle nodded.
Changeling Empire“Derpy Hooves,” A sweet evil voice wafted out from someplace Derpy didn’t know and she woke with a start, “My sweet little pawn. So far you have come, so far.” Derpy sat up and looked around. “Who are you?” She asked uncertainty. “Why, you should remember me.” A strange creature emerged from the shadows. “Queen Chrysalis!” Derpy said. “Yes,” The Changeling Queen said, “Me.” “Why did you take me here?” Derpy demanded. “Why, my sweet little pawn, you were going to be deleted! I needed some experiments done on you!” Chrysalis said with an evil cackle. “Wait, what kind of experiments?” “The kind that make you laugh,” Chrysalis said with a shrug. “NO!” Derpy screamed, “I don’t trust you! You’re going to hurt me!” She started to run towards the window, when a Changeling stopped her. “Oh no yer don’t!” It growled. “Yes I DO!” Derpy screamed, and broke the rope tying her wings together, and she jumped up above the Changeling and stopped at the windowsill. “Stop!” Chrysalis said angrily. “No thank you!” Derpy replied, and jumped out the window, and soared outwards toward freedom. Author's Note Should I make a sequel? I dunno. What do you guys think?
Doctor Whooves“I don’t know if I can help you Derpy,” Doctor Whooves said thoughtfully. “You gotta try!” Derpy insisted, “I’m scared....what will they do to me?” “I don’t know Derpy,” The Doctor said, “Nothing like this has ever happened on the show before.” Derpy gave him a pleading look. “I’ll try,” The Doctor said and raced off. He appeared five minutes later, shaking his head, on the other side of Sugarcube Corner. “So?” Fluttershy said earnestly. “I can’t,” He said, looking stricken, “It’s too complex for the TARDIS to handle.” “The TARDIS?” Twilight asked. “Nevermind,” The Doctor said quickly, “The point is we can’t do anything to change Derpy’s future. It’s already sealed into time. If only I could’ve come earlier...”The Doctor’s eyes lit up in surprise. “Doctor?” Twilight asked uncertainty. “Are ya’ll alright?” Applejack said, concerned. “Can your idea save me?” Derpy asked, as the Doctor thought. “Maybe!” The doctor said, and raced off. “WAIT!” Pinkie screeched, “YOU NEVER TOLD US WHAT YOUR PLAN WAS!” “Pinkie Pie,” Twilight laughed, “He doesn't have to tell you his plan. If I know the Doctor well enough, Derpy will be saved within the hour.” “But what if he doesn’t?” Fluttershy asked, “What if he fails! Derpy will be erased forever in Demon Land with crazed monkeys and dinosaurs!” “Yeah!” Derpy agreed. “She won’t,” Twilight assured her, “Come on everypony, lets go to Canterlot.” “Why in the world would ya’ll want ter go THERE?” Applejack demanded. “Just a feeling I’ve got,” Twilight smiled mysteriously. Her friends and Derpy looked at her. “A feeling you’ve got?” Derpy said, rolling her mismatched eyes, (Which looked very strange) “Yeah right.” “Yeah Twilight,” Fluttershy agreed, “I mean, what proof do you have that it’s a feeling?” “I don’t think I need proof,” Twilight said, “Come on!” The ponies got up, and raced towards the path that would take them to the train station. Author's Note Yes short, I know, don't kill me! :)
