Doctor Whooves: Family Feud
Secrets
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe dark night was over, a long night of those creatures screaming, a long light of destruction and a long night of nothing but death outside.
"So did anyone actually get to sleep?" the Doctor asked.
"No, to much screaming, it was horrifying." Applejack replied.
"So now we need to go to that mine with no energy in us, hungry and tired? Well that's just great!" Golden Delicious shouted.
"Will you quiet down, we don't want those creatures hearing us!" Applejack whispered.
"I don't think they are out there anymore, I haven't heard them screaming for a while." the Doctor pointed out.
The Doctor, Applejack and Golden Delicious made their way down stairs into the living room and looked out the window to see something strange. The monstrous creatures that had been so eager to capture and kill them had suddenly disapperared.
"W-Where did they go, Doctor?" Golden Delicious worried.
"I- I don't know, but look at the bright side, at least the path to the mine from Ponyville is clear from those things." the Doctor replied with a positive note.
"How can ya think of this as a posotive thing?" Applejack asked.
"Well think of it this way, since they are not around, there will be a less chance of them coming to get us!" the Doctor explained.
"That does make sense, well if anything does go wrong, Ponyville guards will protect us, I'm sure they must of noticed those things by now, they must already be prepared, I mean those things spawned all over Equestria, most places are probably ready for attack already." Golden Delicious explained.
"I think you're right, we should go to the mine immediately, the sooner we get there, the better." the Doctor replied.
"Ah agree, lets go!" Applejack shouted.
The Doctor, Applejack and Golden Delicious burst out of the barn doors and ran towards the exit of Sweet Apple Acres and to the dirt road leading to Ponyville.
About half an hour later, the reached only the outscurts of Ponyville, but with something very suspicious... There was nothing, no sound, no life, no guards to protect Ponyville from those creatures... Only buildings. The Doctor, Applejack and Golden Delicious walked to the centre of the town. Still, nothing but dust and leaves.
"Doctor, where is everypony?" Applejack worried.
"I did stay those things were out to kill..." the Doctor replied with a dark emotion growing on his face.
"They killed every living thing inside and around Ponyville in just one night!?" Golden Delicious said with her old body shaking.
"Remember, I said they spawned all around the planet, not just Ponyville." the Doctor replied.
"So this happened everywhere? They... Did they kill every living thing?" Applejack asked about to collapse.
"Yep, they killed every living thing, every race of lifeforms, even pony kind in one night." the Doctor said about to explode with rage of a entire planet turning cold and dead in only twelve hours.
"Wait, does that mean me and Applejack are the only two ponies in existence?" Golden Delicious wondered in worry.
"Yep, you and Applejack are the only two survivors of pony kind." the Doctor replied.
"What about Princess Celestia?" Golden Delicious asked.
"Oh, only worry about Princess Celestia, what about Princess Luna?" the Doctor asked.
"Doctor, in this time, five hundred years back, Princess Luna is still only half way through her banishment..." Applejack explained.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot. But I don't think even Princess Celestia can battle a creature that feeds of time disruptions. I'm sorry, but you two are the only two ponies left. Unicorns extinct, Pegusi extinct and pretty much all Earth ponies, not including you two." the Doctor explained.
"What about you, are you forgetting yourself? Three remain." Golden Delicious stated.
"Yeah, three. If you say so." the Doctor said as he turned to Applejack. "Don't tell her that I'm not a pony and I'm actually a Time Lord, she knows to much already..." the Doctor whispered. "Right you two! The only reason those creatures have disappeared is because they think they have sterilized the wound in time by wiping out all life inside. But as soon as they discover that there are three life forms left, they'll come back. So we need to keep moving! Lets get to the mine as fast as we can without wasting any time!" the Doctor demanded.
The Doctor, Applejack and Golden Delicious reached the other side of Ponyville and went on to the road leading to the mine. Later on in the day, the sun was roasting them, they were struggling to breath in the desert sun and there was still two miles left to go until they reached the mine.
"Why is it so hot? It's not even summer!" Golden Delicious asked.
"Probably since Princess Celestia is dead, there is nopony to control the sun anymore, it's only going to get hotter and hotter." the Doctor explained.
"How long left to go?" Applejack asked, dizzy and tired and about to faint.
"About two more miles to go." Golden Delicious replied.
"Aww! This is to hard." Applejack shouted as she lay down on the burning ground.
"No! Come on! Don't give up, we're over half way there, if we can get there and do what we need to do, I can end this!" the Doctor explained.
"What do ya want to do anyway? Ya keep tryin' to avoid tellin' us!"
"I just can't tell you, not now anyway, I will tell you, but not now!"
"No! Tell us no-" Applejack said before she noticed something that she didn't want to at the moment in time.
"Applejack, what is it?" Golden Delicious asked.
"L-Look behind you!" Applejack said as her teeth chattered in fright.
Golden Delicious and the Doctor looked up into the sky to see one of the creatures spawn once again.
"They know they've missed some life forms out, they're after us now!" the Doctor explained.
"What do we do?!" Applejack asked.
"There's nothing we can do, we can only get to the mine as fast as we can, we should be safe in there! Run!" the Doctor screamed.
"Aww, ah just lay down!" Applejack moaned.
"It's either be lazy and die or run and be safe!" the Doctor shouted.
"Doctor, look up ahead, it's the entrance to the mine!" Golden Delicious pointed out.
"Great! Come on you two, we're almost there! Don't let those things catch up with you!" the Doctor said in a sigh of relive to see the mine.
The Doctor, Applejack and Golden Delicious reached one of the caves of the mine, but the creatures were still coming to get them, there was a huge rock at the edge of the cave.
"Quick, Doctor, Applejack, help me move this boulder in front of the entrance of the cave. Block the entrance for those things!" Golden Delicious demanded.
The boulder fit into the entrance of the cave, perfectly blocking it so the creatures cannot enter and cause them any harm.
"Thank Celestia, we're finally safe." Golden Delicious sighed.
"Doctor, why did we even need to come to the mine?" Applejack asked.
"Because I needed to get some ores and I need help getting them out of the rocks!" the Doctor explained. He picked up three pic-axes and gave one to Applejack and Golden Delicious. "So, lets get mining."
"Ugh, so much for an adventure, Doctor! We've been working more and more!" Applejack moaned.
"Oi! What do you mean, this is an adventure! It's not a normal one, but that makes it exiting! Anyway keep getting those ores out!" the Doctor replied.
Hours and hours later after mining strange ore that wasn't identified as a metal, the Doctor finally had enough to make what he wanted.
"Hey, Doctor, is this enough?" Golden Delicious wondered.
"Perfect!" the Doctor replied as he put the ore in his bag.
"Doctor, what is that ore? It looks like iron." Applejack asked.
"It is iron! the Time Lords needed a metal that was telepathic, so they created a new element called iron, they send the element to the beginning of time so it would form everywhere, making sure it would come to my home planet!" the Doctor explained.
"If iron was telepathic, we would know already!" Applejack said, doubting the Doctor and thinking he was lying.
"No, they only made iron telepathic for the Time Lords and no one else." the Doctor explained.
"So Time Lords created iron?" Applejack asked.
"Yep!" the Doctor replied.
"And why do you need it?" Applejack asked once again.
"The sonic screwdriver can do a lot of things, but it cant do everything by itself. The casing on the sonic screwdriver is iron, it makes the screwdriver telepathic. But because it can't do everything it needs components made from iron!" the Doctor explained.
"Ok I sort of get it now." Applejack replied.
"Ok you two! We need to get to a smeltery to melt and mould this iron. Which means we need to go out there, those creatures still will be out there, but I've looked at the map and there is a smeltery just next door to this cave! So, Golden Delicious, when I give you the signal, I want you to open the exit to the cave so we can get to the smeltery. Got it?" the Doctor asked.
"Got it!" Golden Delicious replied.
