“Doctor, what's going on?” said a worried ditzy. The doctor ran around the console pressing buttons and pulling levers.

   “Well, we’ve just stopped... but we haven't landed.... Oh I see the problem, I may have been pushing her too hard chasing after the Vashta Nerada. She's fine... after a couple of days we should be right back on track! We just need to let her settle down a bit.” he explained. After a bit of questioning and explaining what the TARDIS can do every on settled down, the girls started to run all around the TARDIS laughing and chasing each other.

  While tick tock was researching something the girls accidently bumped into him. “Huh? Oh hello, and you are?” he asked.

  “Well.. I’m princess Catseye pearl and this is my sister princess Star Spirit.” said Catseye.

   “Well it's a pleasure to meet you.” said Tick Tock looking down and  getting back to work. Catseye was amazed at his magic.

   “Whoa! Can you show me how to do that? I can never do magic” asked Catseye slowly sinking into a sad sulky voice.

  “Well... we have a few days... okay why not. First thing you need to learn is how to move things using magic.” said Tick Tock.

   “Hey sis, I’m going to explore some more. I'll see you in a bit.” Star Spirit said running out of the room.

   She kept running around and exploring until she got to Ditzy's room. She knocked once and waited to go in. the door opened and ditzy was smiling down at Star Spirit. “Oh! Hey Star ! Where are you going?” asked ditzy.

   Star Spirit smiled “I was looking for you accually... I was wondering... can you show me how to fly?” ditzy was surprised. She never taught any pony how to fly.

   “Well, I can give it a try....” said Ditzy, uncertainty scrolled all across her face. Star Spirit jumped for joy. She ran into Ditzy's room and Ditzy tried to teach her all she could.

   In the console room the doctor was pacing around the console checking the monitor every five seconds. He switched it to the view of Ponyville. On the monitor there was fire and smoke everywhere. There were ponies enslaved. Bones of the un-enslaved ponies were scattered everywhere. “This is not the Vahsta Nerada... this is something different” He quietly wondered aloud.. He began to check on every pony else, he finally stumbled into Tick Tocks room.  “Hey Tick Tock- what are you doing?” asked the doctor.

  “I am attempting to teach this filly magic. That’s better, now control yourself and try and pick up the wrench.” said tick tock.  Catseye took a deep breath and attempted to lift the wrench with her magic. Her magic was a pink color and she was doing quite well until she heard a crash coming from Ditzy’s room.

   When they opened the door they saw Star Spirit and Ditzy crashed on the floor “Uhg.... well... you almost flew....” said Ditzy, dizzy. Star

   Spirit laughed and said “Sorry about that, I’m not as good as you..” she flew once more around the room and, this time, she landed perfectly on top of Ditzy’s bed. Every pony stomped their hooves, but Catseye stomped the hardest. Catseye ran to grab a book she had been working on and asked if she could read it aloud. It was a romantic/mystery book she wrote by herself. When she was done she was surprised to see a heart and a rose shaped cutie mark of her flank. She hugged her sister happily. They suddenly heard a noise coming from the console room and the doctor ran to it.

   Days had passed, the TARDIS was fixed and everyone was prepared to go and fight. When they were all geared up, armed with magic, wings, and strange technological devices, they gathered around the door of the little blue box.

  “YES!!! let’s go save Equestria!” an excited Doctor yelled, laughing like a mad pony. They touched down in a blacken part of Ponyville.

   “What happened...” said Star Spirit, in a daze at the destruction that had happened to the town she now called home. Catseye gasped as she saw Twilight's tree burnt to a crisp.

   A unicorn in a black suit approached then. The unicorn looked at them and said “Follow me... the night division has gone too far...  we need to get you somewhere safe.” Catseye looked at this strange pony with confusion.

   “Who are you? Why are you dressed like a ninja?” she asked.

The pony stopped and turned, making no noise as she did so. “My name is Night Lock. I must take you to my friends, we can keep you safe...” the mare answered, and then walked toward a shabby little hut made out of blackened wood and whatever was left of the houses.

   Catseye looked around scared. She hugged her sister and Star hugged her back. They heard a roar and saw what was left of the ponies living here run for cover. Night lock picked both of the fillies up with her magic and ran inside the hut with every pony else following. There was a mighty roar from outside and they heard gigantic footsteps pass. They stopped, then continued northwest.

   “What was that....” said Star Spirit.

   “That was the night division's toy, they call it shadow hold... that’s what they were trying to summon with that beam...” said a voice. All the ponies turned around and they heard a hissing noise like hot water hissing from a tea kettle. A hatch lifted up and out poked the head of a Pegasus pony. “quickly in... before he comes back.” the Pegasus said.

   They all climbed down the ladder which was kind of hard judging from all the machines down there, and the fact that they had hooves. The Pegasus started to pull away some medical supplies and went to

treat one of the ponies sitting on the bed. Catseye went over to the Pegasus. She recognized one of the cutie marks right away

   “Rainbow Dash! What happened?” Catseye asked, very surprised.

   Dash's eyes slowly opened and she sat up. “Uhg... oh hey kid... I see you made it... that beast is crazy tough... tougher than me... Kale here helped me even though I don't need any help.” She said. Kale, the Pegasus from before walked over and gently pushed Dash back down.

  “Rainbow... you need to stay resting... both of your wings are broken, your right foreleg is broken and you had a really severe concussion.”

   Rainbow started resisting, but finally gave in, after having a medical shot to sedate her. Catseye stared at the top of the hatch. She tapped Star Spirit on the shoulder and told her to come on and they climbed up the hatch and out of the room. They ran all the way up to the castle where they planned to take care of the beast without the rest of the team. They needed to face this alone.

   An hour later and a whole lot of hiding they had finally arrived at the castle. Catseye put her hoof on the walls and started to feel dizzy. She fell on the ground and Star Spirit helped her up.

   “Dimensional Scream,” Star Spirit immediately responded, catching her sister.

   Catseye saw a black smear turn into a unicorn with a purple coat saying, “come with me, I can take you home...” then she woke up.

   “Catseye what did you see?” Star Spirit asked
