Catch up!

    "And we would all like to thank the towns new Protector for saving the town, and saving the fillies and colts from the factory! It would be my honor to bestow the Element of Loyalty to Celestial Sabre for the time being until we find a more permanent holder." said the mayor in the ceremony after the incident at "The Rainbow Factory" Princess Celestia said it would be a good idea to put guards in Ponyville in case something like that were to happen again. Well anyway I was appointed Protector or head guard of Ponyville, and temporary holder of the Element of Loyalty while they looked for a replacement. Because of this I was given armor with a small lightning imprint in the chest to hold the element.

But I must say it was a beautiful day today the grass was green, the sky was blue and calm, and most importantly the happy crowds that now didn't have to fear that their foals would be taken again! Well about a week later I was staying in a grey pegasus mares home her name was Ditzy Doo she said. "So how's your stay been mister Sabre?" she asked I've been here a week she let me live here while barracks were being built and I helped around the house a bit cleaned weeded the garden you know those kinds of things.

"I'm just fine Miss.Doo thanks for asking." I responded while I cleaned the kitchen. She paused and said.

"Please don't call me Miss.Doo it brings back memory's I'd rather not think about." she told me. I wasn't sure at the time what got her so upset at that I mean her little cottage was quite peaceful I've been up and peppy every moment here! I wasn't going to probe her for information I mean it's her secret she doesn't have to tell me. Besides I was going to town that day, and that's when I'd meet one strange stallion.

Wreeeooop wreeeeoooop wreeeeeoooop was the sound that came from a strange blue box that appeared right in front of me as I was leaving for town. "Gah!" I yelped as I jumped backwards away from the box. I looked up at the doorway of the house and saw Ditzy just standing there frozen up she dropped the tray of muffins she just got done baking, and dropped them on the paving stones in front of her house, and then she ran to the box. You might say nothing else could supprise me more but the doors opened, Ditzy ran in, and I couldn't belive what I was seeing. "It's bigger on the inside." I said. I couldn't belive it there was an entire worlds worth space inside the box were no pony could fit comfortably it was baffling.

"I love it when they say that!" said a brown stallion with an hourglass Cutiemark. "Oh we're are my manners my name is The Doctor I'm a time traveler blah blah blah and while you were standing there just staring at the celing Ditzy here slapped me it hurts a lot, and now Miss.Doo let's see why the TARDIS brought me here shall we!" said The Doctor.

"Whoa whoa whoa who exactly are you you mad pony?" I asked completely in shock from what I saw.

"I told you I'm The Doctor I'm a time traveler, and we don't have time for this you're the towns protector if I'm not mistaken right?" he said.

"Yeah I am and how in Celestia did you know?" I questioned him. I needed answers I mean a box that houses a whole world inside it, and a pony I've never met before knowing me and what I do! It's just plain creepy.

"I'm The Doctor I always know (gets hit in the ribs by Ditzy) ow! Okay she told me why you were dozing off." he said then under his breath he said "Didn't have to hit me."

Rubbing my eyes to get over what I'm seeing I said "Okay hey wait when I called you Miss.Doo you looked like you were going to yell at me if I said it again." I said.

"Only The Doctor can call me that, and anyway don't we have a problem to solve?" said the Mare.

The Doctor looked over and said "Yes yes we do and so we shall! AVANTE!" he shouted and we took off.

It was moments, and when we got out we were in the town square! "How?" I asked baffled.

"Time/Space travel it's how The Doctor and I used to get around before he ran off." said Ditzy with some hurt in her voice before The Doc showed up again.

"Now if you're going to be my companion you need a key!" said The Doctor before giving "me" a key to the Tardis! He had us take off into town before I could thank him. As we walked through town I saw a few weird things such as two of one pony here and there, things flying by in the corner of my eye it was rather creepy. As we continued onwards we ran into a familiar purple unicorn my good pal Twilight Sparkle!

"Fancy meeting you here now isn't it." said Twilight it's only been a few weeks since "The Rainbow Factory" incident and it looked like she only slept yesterday of them.

"Just walking with Ditzy, and her friend umm TimeTurner that's all." I said obviously not convinced Twilight said.

"Mind if I join you I've got nothing else to do anyway." she said I knew arguing would only make her want to come more so I agreed and the Doc said.

"Well the more the merrier. ADVANTE!" he shouted and we continued our journey not knowing we were being watched!

Chapter 2

    "So Doc you know what we're looking for because I don't want to be dragged out here for nothing you know." I told The Doctor I mean I don't want to be dragged out here for some petty argument, and I've delt with twelve of them since I became the towns protector.

"Nah it's big alright else the Tardis wouldn't of brought me here, and besides I get to travel with Derpy again!" he said.

"Doctor my name is Ditzy." said Ditzy "I don't like being called Derpy."

"Oh well let's just continue on our merry way. He he he." giggled The Doctor. He really is full of energy I thought.

"Yawn, well what exactly are we looking for Mr.The Doctor?" asked Twilight.

"It's just The Doctor, and I'm not very sure..... ah well let's go on anyway!" said an ever peppy Doctor. Sometimes his always happy nature reminded me of Ditzy at times, and I'm not sure I still felt like something was watching me, but it could be anything in this bright crowded market street. I saw Carrot Top at her stand selling her carrots, I saw Fluttershy walking around around in her usual manner, but no pony was looking at me or the group it was eerie.

"So Doc do you feel that it's like we're being followed?" I told him he turned looked behind me, and his face went slack.

"Run." he said.

"What!" said an annoyed Ditzy.

"If you want to survive just RUN!" said The Doctor he turned and ran and we followed "Twilight were is your library!" asked The Doctor I filled him in on Twilight earlier.

"This way follow me!" she said as we had just left the market through an alley, and we're running towards the library it was so close now I could feel it! Then disaster struck an insect pony hybrid creature thing is all I can describe them as he swooped in and grabbed the exhausted Twilight good thing I'm a good shot or else we would've lost her. I shot a jolt of magic and obliterated the creature and Twilight fell onto the road beneath her. I ran to her Doc and Ditzy in hoof when we got there we saw the damage. There was a gash in her leg, and then I saw the half built barracks armory spilled on the ground with a spear already bloodied. Her red lifeblood was flowing out of the wound I just had to help her I hefted the wounded mare onto my back and ran into the library were we were greeted by a baby dragon he ushered us in, and closed the door!

"Okay what was that!" said The Doctor "It looked like a mix between a pony and an insect of some sort fascinating!"

"It's called a Changeling I fought a few at the royal wedding in Canterlot they live off the love of ponies to put it frank. Now can we get those bandages!" I said.

"Right here!" said the dragon as he ran to us with a box of medical supplies. "Let's see bandages, peroxide, needle, stitches, and painkillers we've got exactly what we need." said the dragon I turned to Twilight and told her everything would be fine, and started dressing the wound using my magic. Careful not to use the element in my armor's power because that would cause a flux in power, and it would send the needle flying through her leg and that would hurt... a lot. A few hours later I put her in her bed and returned to the Doctor, and Ditzy.

"So Mister Sabre how is she?" asked The Doctor I breathed in and said.

"She's fine, but we should let her rest and then we'll let her test out her leg my sonic can only heal small wounds not huge gashes such as that!" exclaimed The Doctor.

"You are worthless!" Yelled the Changeling Queen at her drones "I just asked you to bring the girl to me how hard can that be!" she looked at her army and her horn flared to life, and she obliterated a small group of changelings and said "Whatever the reason I will have her now we march!" she shouted and she, and her army flew out of the cave and advanced on Ponyville.

Chapter 4 Our Own Little Army!

   "So how did The Doctor drag you into this Lyra?" asked Ditzy Doo trying to make small talk while The Doctor went to find the pony that could help us.

"Oh I wanted to come along so badly after you told me he used to be human as you know I'm obsessed with them!" said Lyra.

"Well hi there every pony my name is Ruby Spark, I own the small jewelry store over there down the street, and if you all were interested could you buy a few I've not had the best of luck here lately and could use the sales." said the red unicorn her mane was a pinkish tint though. Her Cutiemark was an ruby necklace.

"I suppose it couldn't hurt to get some souvenirs!" said Twilight.

"Thank you all!" said a smiling Ruby Spark who trotted away towards her shop.

"Nice lady hope everything works out." said Ditzy.

"As do I." I said it would be ever so sad if she lost her job wonder if she had a family to care for? My thoughts were cut short when The Doctor arrived with a smile on his face he opened his mouth and said "All right I've found our friend, and he's agreed to assist us in any way he can!" said The Doctor who was interrupted by Twilight who asked.

"Does he know why the changeling tried to kidnap me?" asked Twilight Sparkle.

"That he does now if you my purple friend want to know your self come with me!" said The Doctor, and Twilight, Lyra, Ditzy, and I got up and followed The Doctor.

"Welcome back Doctor." said a hooded pony this was our so called help she sounded like a mare but you couldn't always be sure. "Oh how rude I really should take this hood off." she said as the hood dropped revealing a blue unicorn with an hourglass cutiemark.

"Well Colgate my friend Twilight wants to know why the changelings want her so badly." said The Doctor.

"Well I should suppose so now sit down I'll get us some coffee." said Colgate walking off to the kitchen.

"Do you think we can trust her Doc?" I asked.

"Absolutely I've known her almost as long as Derpy!" said The Doctor.

"My name is Ditzy not Derpy." said Ditzy

"Oh whatever." said The Doctor.

In the kitchen

Colgate was humming to herself as the coffee machine was whirring along, but she didn't see the small creature in her closet until it was to late. The changeling attacked, but he didn't anticipate the unicorns magical ability. Colgate slowed down time stepped out of the way bucked the creature in the face, and jumped into the door behind her into her living room.

The Living Room

"Little help here!" said Colgate, I answered by lighting my horn, and created a baseball bat smacked the changeling, and then stabbed it with a magic knife.

"I think we need answers now!

Chapter 6 The Battle

    The town was in chaos if I didn't know any better I'd say Discord was behind this. Alas that was not true, but I still had a job to do no time to sit there and think on petty things. I lit my horn and charged into the fray. I killed a few before getting blindsided "Oh not again! " I said. It's just like the first time I was doing good then I get busted up. Anyway when the changeling was about to finish me off Ruby Spark sent a bolt of magic at the creature knocking it off me. "Thank you ." I said.

"No worries just be careful next time I may not be able to help you next time." she said I nodded got up, and ran back into the fight.

We all met back up at the town hall. Ditzy had green blood on her muzzle, mane, and hooves. The Doctor none at all, same for Ruby.

"Well that could've gone better." said Ditzy wiping a bit of blood out of her mane.

"Aye I got hit pretty hard back there." I said showing my bruised ribs, black eye, and the gash along my muzzle.

"Hey y'all!" said Applejack running to us from town. She herself had some obvious wounds. "So who's yer friend there?" she asked.

"AJ this is Ruby Spark I think she followed us from Canterlot.

"Now why in tarnation would she do that?" Asked Applejack.

"Because in the attack on Canterlot one of these things got my husband! I am not letting them hurt my little girl to!" she said. "She was visiting town to see a friend, and when I heard the news I had to help." explained Ruby.

"So the target is still in Canterlot yes?" asked Crysilis. A minor changeling nodded. She kept a calm demeanor and told him to return to battle. Sadly as he flew away The Queen shot him down. "Disappointment."

"Oh my Celestia what's happening!" said a purple unicorn.

"Sparkler you're so clueless the changelings are attacking the town." said a younger pegasus by the name of Lightning Smash. After hearing the word changeling she blacked out.

"Okay this is a threat to big for us alone to handle we need an army!" I said "Else we be over run." we were hiding in the TARDIS thinking our next cause of action.

"We've got two elements honesty, and loyalty that should help right?" said Ditzy.

"Fraid not I seem to be the only one able to harness its magic and power myself up without the other five elements. It might be impossible without the rest."

"Then let's get them." said Ruby Spark.

"We can't Pinkies out of town, Fluttershy is in Cloudsdale cleaning up the debri from the factory, and Rairity is in Trottingham for at least two more days." I explained.

"Well that's not good." said The Doctor "I would get them, but something is keeping the TARDIS in place I can't leave."

"Well horse feathers." said Ditzy "Well I'll be taking a shower if you need me just nock, but don't just barge in." she said glaring at The Doctor.

"What I didn't do anything." he said defensevly. She rolled her eyes and trotted off.

Meanwhile a certain unicorn was making her way to town with two friends their names Colgate, Lyra, and Twilight Sparkle!

"I feel her coming." said The Changeling Queen laughing a laugh you'd here a mad scientist uses. "Soon my plans will come to realization! I will have my revenge."

About an hour later.

"Alright I'm ready to go!" said Ditzy.

"Then let's get to it." I was bandaged up, and The Doctor helped heal some wounds. His TARDIS is a miracle worker! My ribs weren't bruised now and I was ready to kick some changeling flank!

"Alright let's do this!" I yelled lighting my horn to create a long sword. As on que a horde of the buggers swarmed down the street! I hacked up a few, Ditzy was kicking them till they stopped moving, Doc was tricking them into flying into a field he set up around the TARDIS, AJ was helping Ditzy, and Ruby went to find her daughter. Of course since we were doing so well disaster had to strike! We heard Ruby scream. Applejack said she had things covered, and so I ran to Rubys aid.

Chapter 7 The Cavalry Arives!

    I was running through the barren alleyways looking left and right for Ruby Spark. She was no were to be seen until I spotted a red puddle flowing down the street. "Blood!" I said. I sped up I had to find her. I turned a corner and saw Ruby Spark rolling away the body of....... Herself! "What how why?" I said trying to wrap my mind around it.

"Just moping up." she said with a green glint in her eyes. Wait green glint! I lit my horn and blasted her away the imposter wailed "NOOOOOOOO!"

"Oh my Celestia that hurts!" said Ruby Spark she had a hole in her side! I ran to her side and said.

"No this can't be happening! It can't be no no no!" I was freaking out I didn't want to loose another friend not like this.

"It's okay I've lived my life, made friends, and own my own store. If only I could be there for my dear Sparkler! Promise me you will find her and protect her!" she told me.

"I will!" I said she sighed, and closed her eyes for the last time. I arose and ran I was going to save that child!

Back at the TARDIS

"There are a lot of changelings don't reckon we can hold this out much longer!" Applejack yelled over the chaos of the fight. The words set in and moral dropped until a blue bolt of energy flew by and destroyed a small group of the things! The group turned to see the trio of unicorns they thought they left in Canterlot. Twilight, Lyra, and the ever so helpfull Colgate!

At Sugar Cube Corner

"Did..did..did you see that?" said a shaky Lightning Smash he turned to see Sparkler curled in a ball in the corner sobbing. Her mother was killed before her very eyes! Now a stallion she doesn't even know is supposed to protect her! She was horrified. What startled her more was when a changeling burst through the back doors and tackled Lightning! Sparkler did what any pony in this situation would do scream! Hearing the scream Sabre dashed for the store.

Sparkler stopped screaming and kicked the creature in the muzzle knocking it off! Feeling proud of herself she got distracted and the creature grabbed her "Lightning help!" she said, but instead of the thing getting knocked off a purple blade pertruded from its chest. "What the?" she said before getting slung over Sabre's back along with her friend.

The Streets

"I'm guessing you're Sparkler right?" I said Sparkler nodded "Then I'm getting you to safety."

"Whoa were are we going who are you?" she asked before looking at my armor and looking up.

"I promised your mother I would look out for you." I turned a corner and sat them down and said "Now tell me about your self Miss. Sparkler." She told me her full name Amethyst Spark, she was from Canterlot, her father was killed by changelings, she was 12 years old at the time, and a few other things.

"Okay can we get out of here now?" asked Lightning Smash I nodded and we made a brake for the TARDIS.

At The TARDIS

"Well bout time you fellers got back.... Where's that red feller?" asked Applejack Sparkler looked on the verge of tears I answered AJ while trying to comfort her.

"She was killed before I got there, but she told me to find her daughter and keep her safe." I said looking at the filly next to me.

"Oh my I'm so sorry little one let's get you inside." Applejack led the girl and her friend inside the TARDIS while I went over to the trio of unicorns and spoke my mind.

"Twilight I told you to stay in Canterlot!"

"If I hadn't of came you're friends here would be dead now." said Twilight we continued arguing before Ditzy broke us up. There was urgency in her eyes.

"Their Queen is here." I looked at her slack jawed until I turned my head seeing the alicorn like Queen Crisilis.

"Ah I see both of my little headaches are right in front of me! Now I can get my revenge!" she said before jumping from the roof landing in front of me snarling "This will be fun!"

Chapter 8 The End and a Beginning

   I charged my horn preparing an attack, but I wasn't expecting her to be able to negate the spell "What the heck!" I said confused. She rolled her eyes and approached.

"I see your horn doesn't like mind alteration spells. Oh well I'll kill you personally!" she said lunging. I side steeped still unable to create a new weapon I rammed into her with my horn! She growled in pain and walked backwards to get away from my horn. I charged for words sinking my horn into her right front leg. She blasted me away. I was defenseless I couldn't stand or use magic I was as good as dead, but as she was firing her beam Applejack tried to save me taking the blast instead.

"Noooo Applejack!" Twilight yelled in anguish over her fallen friend. She sent blast after blast of energy at the Queen hitting her directly each time, but in her rage she failed to notice a hidden changeling in the bushes. It jumped out slamming the unicorn into her friends.

"Enough!" I yelled grabbing the changeling with a quick blast. "You've hurt to many, killed to many of my friends for me to let you go! You die right here right now!" I ignited my horn drawing power from the element on my chest making a rainbow colored blade on my head. "I'm ready!"

The fight raged on for a while we locked horns, deflected each others spells, stuck each other when we were off our guard, and still no victor. I jumped to the right raised my back legs and kicked her in the side sending her sprawling into the dirt. As she rose I pressed my right hoove into her neck I raised my left hoove and slammed it into the side of her face. The attack left two teeth in the dirt. My magic ignited and I created my finisher. My battle axe! I was not going to let her live to kill another day I brought my axe onto the base of her neck severing the head.

My face spattered with blood as I raised my head I looked at the lifeless body of Applejack, and blacked out.

7 years later

"Open your present Dinky." said Ditzy Doo to her daughter Dinky. The Doctor, and Lyra were there, so was Dinkys older sister Sparkler (She was adopted shortly after the battle), Colgate wasn't able to come over, but we're was Sabre he was supposed to be here hours ago!

"Mommy where's daddy at?" asked Dinky.

"Right here." said Sabre as he walked through the doorway.

"Daddy!" Dinky squealed with delight Sabre walked over and gave her a hug, and then took his seat over by Ditzy.

"You're late." Ditzy scolded.

"I made it didn't I."

"Ok yes you did"

"Great now Dinky I got you a very special present." I said pulling out a package.

    "Yaaayy!" Dinky said again opening the box with glee finding a binder with eight papers with strange pictures on them. Puzzled she asked me what they were. I said.

"Safety."

The End

(If you want to see a Pinkie story cannon to Sabre's adventures go to Slendermares page it'll be out soon! Yay I finished another one)

Info on Sabre

     A lot of pony's have been asking so I'll answer the questions on my abilities and such.

Backstory

I was born in Canterlot into a family of earth pony's. At 17 I joined the guard, and I got my cutiemark there.

Strengths and weaknesses

I am very adept at spells that turn magic into a solid form condensed around my horn. I cannot use ranged weapons else I risk draining myself completely in one shot. If a spell that targets my mind is used I'm not effected by it, but my magic becomes in active for a while. I can't handle loosing friends/family if I do I either.

A. Go berserk or.

B. Black out.

Fears

I HATE spiders with all of my being.

Look

Dark black mane

Tanish/brown fur

Unicorn

My cutiemark is crossed purple swords

My magic, and eyes are purple.

Hope this helped.

Chapter 3 We Meet A New Friend!

    "How's your leg doing?" I asked Twilight as we walked around town with The Doctor, and Ditzy we decided it was safer to travel in a group in case another changeling swooped in.

"It's doing just fine." she said we continued talking as we walked through town. It was noon now and we were heading to Applejack's stand to get something to eat, and then I saw something on the stand it was a sign that said "all cider 20% off."

I told them what I saw and said "We can't let an opportunity like this go to waste now can we?"

"I suppose we can't" said Ditzy as she ran towards the stand. She reached into her saddle bags and brought out a few bits, and came back with a few mugs of cider we accepted them and drank for once today in peace. We discussed the events that transpired that day leading to the attempted kidnapping.

"I wonder why the changeling wanted me so badly?" said Twilight in more of a question than a statement.

"I have no idea." me and The Doctor said in unison. He looked at me and just raised an eyebrow and said "Well while I don't know there might be a pony who might. Now my companions to Canterlot ADVANTE. The Doctor called his TARDIS and we stepped inside. "I think it's do time I introduce you to a friend of mine she's been with me for two or three days now. Lyra we are going on an adventure!" yelled The Doctor as a teal unicorn walked into the room with a small notebook.

"Ooh more companions how much fun!" said the pony I was lead to belive was Lyra. She looked rather restless always running around I was supprised I didn't see her earlier. "Any way I was in the library recording some things about these humans you told me about the books you showed me absolutely fascinate me!" said Lyra explaining why we didn't see her when The a Doctor first arrived.

"Well I sure hope they did. Anyway were off to Canterlot! ADVANTE!" shouted The Doctor.

"Why does he always say ADVANTE?" I asked.

"It's his catch phrase." said Ditzy. "He's kind of obsessed with them."

"Did you travel with him before Ditzy?" asked Twilight Ditzy responded with a nod, and she walked us up to the console.

"This is the TARDIS's console I personally have no idea how it works so I'm not sure how he does it." said Ditzy. I was baffled my self. Not only the bigger on the inside part, but the fact after The Doctor hit a couple of buttons and flipped a lever he opened the door and we were in Canterlot!

Chapter 5 We Get Bad News (Warning short chapter)

Chapter 5 We Get Bad News (Warning short chapter)

    "Your meaning to tell me that I have enough power to "destroy" Equestria, and that's why the changelings want me." said Twilight after Colgate told her the news.

"I'm afraid so my dear Twilight Sparkle." said Colgate. "The Changeling army won't stop until your dead."

I stood up and said "Not if I can help it and I'll show you how.' I used a little trick I learned and sent a pulse of magic from the element into my horn creating a rainbow colored blade.

"My that is impressive but not compared to an army of hundreds of changelings not so much." said Colgate.

Frowning I stopped the flow of magic, and asked "How can you help us."

"Why you have the answer right next to you in the form of a purple pony." said Colgate I heard a nock at the door and exused myself. I opened the door to reveal Applejack. She was panting like a dog I ushered her in when she said.

"Ah need to see Twilight." I pointed to the living room and she ran in, and told Twilight "Changelings are attacking Ponyville we need ya now!" she said before seeing the bandages on Twilights flank. "Oh my."

"She's in no condition to fight and as the towns protector I can't let her get hurt further I'll accompany you." I said she nodded I told Lyra to watch Twilight, and Ditzy, and The Doctor to follow me. We ran through the town so fast we didn't notice a certain red unicorn following us. We got in the TARDIS and took off for Ponyville.

When we arrived the town was in chaos changelings left and right destroying buildings, and feeding off pony's at random. I lit my horn and killed a few before running to the battle friends at my tail. This would be a battle no pony could forget.
