"Do not worry miss Hooves your and your family are perfectly fine, we only wanted him." Lazarus explained gesturing to the Doctor.

"Why?" Derpy asked with a look of absolute horror.

"Because he has caused so much trouble, so much destruction..." is jaw was splitting and his pupils were slits, "He has completely ruined so much..." He paused to gather his composure, "Forgive me, I was loosing control. After all there is a flip side to his existence, he has served so many for so long that the Silence have decided that he doesn't need to worry about it any more. After all my former employers have protected Equestria for several thousand years now..."

"He will rest" The Silent member interrupted.

"That thing can talk!?"

"Of course he can talk, how else did you expect them to take over Equestria if it couldn't talk?"

"I don't know, I guess I never gave it any thought."

There was a hiss from the Silent "His return to his pony form is a necessity for that is not the fave of the returner."

"Do not worry Ms. Hooves my former the Silence will block your memories of your time with the Doctor. It'll be as if you simply forgot a month."

"But I wasn't with him a for month." Derpy pointed out.

"Yes but that is when he decided to drop you off. And now if you don't mind..." Lazarus nodded at the Silent.

"Sleep" it said.

Derpy's eyelids grew heavy, she felt sleepy, "What?"

"Do not worry you won't be remembering any of this at..." Derpy fell asleep."


The Doctor woke up quickly an right away noticed three things; Lazarus sitting in a chair near the door to the room he was in, the fob watch Lazarus was swinging on its chain, and that he was in Time Turner's bedroom. "Where is Derpy?" He said staring daggers at Lazarus.

Lazarus turned towards him revealing his eyepatch, "I did nothing to her, my former employer's however..." He trailed off.

"If they've hurt her..."

"Relax. She and her kids are fine," Lazarus said cutting him off. "They just won't remember you..."

It was the Doctor's turn to interrupt, "Why!?!"

"It's all part of the plan." Lazarus said calmly. "Now to finish the job."

"Your gona try to kill me aren't you?"

"Oh please, we both know that I wouldn't be able to kill you if I tried. However if I were to put you in a situation where you would have to return to Time Turner..."

"So that's your plan? To turn me into Turner"

"Simple enough. Right now the Silence is hypnotising the mob that is Ponyville not to run from my less pleasant form. As you could imagine what I could do to a town of ponies that won't run or remember me. They are also making it so if I say to attack a certain stallion than they would, stopping you as I feed."

"So the only way you won't rampage is if I used the T.A.R.D.I.S.'s chameleon arch to make myself Turner again? What assurance do I have that you won't just rampage as soon as I do it?"

"Ah yes assurance, as you know the Silence have put a lot of work into this world and they don't want me destroying it. Plus I'm full, and I don't like exposing myself like that unless absolutely necessary."

"You're lying, when we met in Canterlot about a month ago you were in that horrid form of yours."

"I have good hearing Doctor, and the memory of an elephant. I appeared to you like that because you needed it."

"How..."

"Never mind it, you have work to do."

"And if I stop you?"

"Well...then the Silence will just have to kill the ponies themselves. Unfortunately I'm not that necessary to the plan."

"Oh. And should I stop every one of them; I have a time machine after all."

"Assuming you could find and take your time machine back."

"What have you done with my T.A.R.D.I.S.?"

"We hid it from you, or at least until you decide to turn back into Turner."

"But I need to be into the T.A.R.D.I.S. if i'm going to turn back to Time Turner."

"Of course you will, and I'll be there right next to you when it happens. Then you will restart you life as Time Turner. Oh and before you get to thinking you'll just subdue me and fly off; there are still lives on the line."

"You would have me live out the rest of my live as a pony. Then die of old age."

"Yes. And you don't have a choice in the matter."

"We always have a choice. In fact..."

"The only choice you can make is to turn into Turner, or see all of the ponies here die."

"I chose neither" As soon as The Doctor spoke he quickly picked up the small lamp on his nightstand and threw it into the air. Lazarus got up and started to grow into his more viscous form and put his claw onto the Doctor's neck.

"Was I supposed to be distracted by the lamp?"

"Well it was heading right for you." The Doctor retorted.

"You only have that choice Doctor, and your going to do it."

"Considering you points..."

"You agree then? I knew you'd make the right decision in the end."


The Doctor was standing in front of his T.A.R.D.I.S., Lazarus was standing by him, "How long will the self repair take?"

"About ten years, normally I'd just send it off and have it return but somebody won't let me."

"The Silence simply wishes to control as much as they could, mind you we could have killed Derpy and he youngsters when you were knocked out. This is the only way there will be no death."

"Why are you here, couldn't the Silence have just done this themselves?"

"Your staling."

"Just answer the question."

"They want you to remember this defeat." Lazarus answered and The Doctor swiftly opened the Tardis's door and slammed it shut. But before it closed a the way Lazarus put his hoof in the way, he pushed the door open and started to grow, "You won't be getting out of this!" he shouted in anger.

"Worth a shot"

"I should tell the Silence to kill a few ponies for that. Use the device now."

The Doctor hit a button and a helmet thing lowered down and the Doctor put the fob watch on the side of the helmet. "Goodbye old girl", the Doctor started to scream in extreme pain then suddenly stopped and fell to the floor.

The Doctor was slipping into unconsciousness when he saw Lazarus's face hovering over him, "Have a nice nap" Lazarus said giving a grin.


Time Turner woke up in his bed with the morning sun hitting his face. He went through his morning routine and opened his shop. Only a few minutes later Derpy walked in with a bag, "Hi Turner".

"Another broken clock, I'll get to work on it right away."


Author's Note

Well another lackluster ending from a relatively lackluster Spellcaster, and it only took a month or two.
