(Not) The Last Of His Kind

Previous Chapter

I instructed Allen to hide, (along with the butter maker, mind you!) fearing it might be the Master. As I inched closer to the door. I looked at the door, cautiously opening it, only to be greeted by a purple unicorn with messy black hair. She gasped with a huge smile, "Well well well, it's the Doctor!" She said with a british accent alike mine, "Thank Celestia!" She said, making me heavily confused, "Uh, yes, it quite is... and may I ask who are you? And why do you know who I am?" I said, still wary of this pony. "My name is Calypso. And I know of you because..." She looked to both sides, and then whispered, "We're kind of from the same planet." My eyes widened, shaking his head, "If you are implying we are both of the Ponyville origin..." She giggled, "Of course not, silly! We're from Gallifrey!" My eyes widened even more, "But... but..." Were the only words I could utter as I saw her cutie mark with a comet and- sure enough, an hourglass. I thought the master was the only survivor of... well, you know. Calypso leaned over to the side a bit, raising an eyebrow, "Hey, who's your little friend?" I turned around, noticing the wide-eyed colt peaking from his hiding spot behind the dashboard, his jaw dropped.

"Y-You're aliens?"

I tried to catch up to the panicking colt, to no avail as he could fly. His wings were shaped like an adult's, but not the same size. He flew around, standing on the ceiling, the hairs on his mane and tail becoming messy and out of place as a few popped up. "You are all ALIENS! Aliens!" He said, breathing heavily and in a panic. "Yes, we are but not mean ones! Quite the opposite, actually!" I said in an attempt to calm Allen, to no avail as he continued freaking out. As I romped around the TARDIS, trying to catch Allen from the ceiling, suddenly Calypso stopped me. "I got this." She said, as I nodded and just backed up, wondering what she might do. She closed her eyes, an orange magic surrounding her horn and Allen, bringing him down gently. He looked up at her, still panicking, but she starting rocking him back and forth in the forcefield, "Look kid, it's ok. We aren't gonna hurt you..." He looked up, still whimpering a bit but calmer. I raised an eyebrow, "Wow. Impressi-" Before being shushed by Calypso. "It's ok kid..." She said calmly as she brought him closer to her chest, hugging him and releasing him from the magic, the colt had been calmed down a lot. After a few moments, he looked up sheepishly, "I... I'm sorry I flipped so much..." Calypso released him from the hug, calmly responding, "It's ok, dear. Now, what's your name?" Allen looked at me, and I nodded, silently telling him he could tell her his name. "I'm... Allen." He said, rubbing his arm. Suddenly his eyes widened, "I'll be right back." He said hurriedly, "Where's the kitchen?" He said, looking around nervously. I raised an eyebrow, "It's down that hall... are you o-" Were all I could utter before he took off. Me and Calypso exchanged looks, before shrugging and running off after him.

One we arrived, we found that he had a glass of water and a prescription pill bottle in front of him, taking two from the bottle and taking what seemed to be medication. Calypso ran up to him, picking up the bottle and reading it. "Xanax?..." She said, muttering to herself. "Well, that explains a lot!" She said as she turned to me, showing me the pill bottle. I read it, nodding. "I see." I turned to Allen, he was finishing off his water. "You've got an anxiety disorder, huh?" He responded with an ashamed nod, as he placed the water on the table and looked down, rubbing his arm. "Hey kid, it's nothing to be ashamed of." Calypso said kindly, Allen continuing to look away. I smiled, getting an idea, as I knew of a substitute for the primitive side effect ridden medication this poor colt had to endure (depression, lack of energy, confusion, etc). "Come with me. I have an idea." I said with a smirk as I trotted off to the dashboard, about to attempt to travel.

I just hope the TARDIS had repaired enough from it's damages...

I flipped a few levers and pushed a few buttons, "Hold on! This will be a bumpy ride!" Calypso nodded and held on to a rail, Allen looking around in awe. "This travels, too?" He said excitedly. I nodded, "Indeed!" As I grabbed onto the dashboard, Allen holding onto a rail as the TARDIS began to warp off. "Doctor... where exactly are we going?" Calypso said nervously. "I'm going to try and travel to the Llamanachian galaxy." I said, masking uncertainty. "Llama what-uh?" Allen responded, confused. "Doctor! You know the risks of inter-dimensional travel!"

"Don't worry, it'll be the version of it in this dimension."

"Are you so sure that it even exists here?"

I paused, before sighing, "No. But there's a chance..." I said, as hope was the only thing I had to grip onto in this.

Suddenly, the TARDIS stopped. I smiled, rushing to the door and opening it.

"Told ya' it exists!" I said with a smirk as Calypso nodded. "Well, I'll be a monkeys uncle..." She said as she pulled a banana and began eating it, staring out at the galaxy. Allen peeked out at it as well, "Why is it shaped like a llama?" He said with a raised eyebrow, yawning slightly. I looked over, frowning as I noticed the side effects of his medication. "It's actually just the clouds of dust and particles around the galaxy that's shaped like a llama. The real galaxy is in the center." I said, the colt's ears perking a bit. "Wow..." I smiled a bit, glad he could muster some happiness. I smirked and pulled out some harnesses and bunjee cords.

"Now, who's ready for some extreme bunjee jumping!"
