The Doctor and Derpy made it back to the Tardis, they were greeted by Sparkler and Dinky. The Doctor just ignored them and Derpy was frantic. The Doctor started up the Tardis and was hitting random buttons franticly. "Are you going after that thing?" Derpy asked her brow furrowing.

"Yes! I have to stop it from destroying your past." The Doctor said as the Tardis started to shake.

"Will you be ok?" Derpy said looking extremely worried.

"I have dealt with this thing before, I'll be fine, don't worry." The Doctor said turning toward her. She looked past him and saw the screen on the console flashing a number one.

"Everypony out, we're in your home, just go. I'll be back, just let me deal with the Dalek" The Doctor said guiding the kids out of the Tardis.

He ran back to the console, "Right, the maid said that I beat the Dalek nine hundred years ago, so Canterlot I'd assume." The Doctor said to himself as he set the Tardis for those coordinate. The Tardis moved there and The Doctor stepped outside.

"Doctor where are we now?"

"Derpy!! What are you Still doing on the Tardis!!" The Doctor yelped and was about to enter it when he heard a sound. It was faint but it was clear.

"EXTERMINATE!! EXTERMINATE!!" along with this battle cry there was also the sound of screaming ponies.

"We don't have any time to take you back we need to deal with that Dalek now before it reaches killing capacity." The Doctor said running in the general direction that the Dalek's screams were coming from.

"Why are you running towards the thing!?" Derpy said flying in front of him, "We have to get to safety." she said with concern in her now focused eyes.

"Miss Hooves I may have been your friend back when I was Time Turner but now I am The Doctor, last son of Gallifrey, and the only thing in this dimension that can defeat the Dalek."

"We were more than friends." Derpy said getting out of his way.

This jarred a lot of memories and emotions of his time as Time Turner. He was remembering how he and Derpy had met, he had been moving into town and had hired a moving company to move his furniture from Trottingham to Ponyville, and she had been one of them. He had flirted with her and she returned the gesture, he was baffled when he had found out that he was moving in right next to her. Then he saw Sparkler and Dinky, this had initially turned him away from the idea of asking Derpy out, but after some passive observation he had discovered she was a signal mom and he asked her out in secret. And that's how it was those first six months, keeping it from her kids until Sparkler put two and two together and found out about the two of them.

The Doctor's head was spinning, why did I just blatantly accept them as companions? he asked himself. I spent too much time as a run of the mill pony, it changed me, I'm not The Doctor nor am I Turner, I'm both? He shook his head trying to get the thoughts away, but it didn't work they only came in force and were causing him more and more distress. The Master said something about a trap, what if this is it, I'm trapped in a different dimension and he messed with my chameleon arch so that it wEasn't a total transformation back.

"EXTERMINATE!! EXTERMINATE!!" this brought The Doctor back and he began to run towards the sound again.

"All I have to do is get some unicorns to shoot at it and it will go down" The Doctor said out loud as they ran.

"DOCTOR!! I KNOW YOU ARE OUT THERE!! PROXIMITY ALERTS HAVE DETECTED YOUr TARDIS!! YOU WILL BE EXTERMINATED!! I AM NEARLY AT KILLING CAPACITY!! IF YOU SURRENDER I WILL ABANDON THIS PLANET!!"

"Why!!" The Doctor shouted not revealing himself to the Dalek.

"VOCAL RECOGNITION!! REVEAL YOURSELF!!"

"Tell me Dalek! Why can you do an emergency temporal shift? Your shell is that of a soldier!"

"BATTLE CAMOUFLAGE!! NOW REVEAL YOURSELF!!"

"What's the point of that, you look like a normal Dalek." The Doctor said then imminently hitting himself realizing the point.

"REVEAL YOURSELF OR I WILL EXTERMINATE THE ENTIRE PLANET!!"

"The Doctor walked into the open then said the Dalek "Negotiation? That's not vary Dalek like."

"THIS UNIT WAS CONSTRUCTED DURING THE END OF THE TIME WAR TO NEGOTIATE A TRUCE WITH THE TIME LORDS!!"

"Who created you?"

"A FACTION OF THE CULT OF SKARO!!"

"Ah but the other Daleks wouldn't have liked that, so they discarded you like trash. But the cult was smart and equipped you with the necessary tools to survive destruction. And The Master ended up with you?"

"I WAS SENT TO CHASE AFTER A TIME LORD!! I WAS DAMAGED DURING MY CHASE AND WAS SENT THROUGH TIME WITH THE TIME LORD!!"

"So The Master has had you for a little over fifty years in hibernation?"

"CORRECT!!"

"So if you’re designed to negotiate a truce with Time Lords, but why? That isn't very Dalek like."

"I AM NOT A NORMAL DALEK!!"

“No you're not, if you were I would be dead. But here’s one thing I don’t get, wasn't the Cult of Skaro meant to create newer and deadlier weapons.”

“DIPLOMACY IS A WEAPON!!”

“So what was the plan then, stop the war and bide your time?”

“EXACTLY!! THE TIME LORDS WOULD HAVE ACCEPTED THE TRUCE!! WE WOULD HAVE HAD COUNTLESS YEARS TO CREATE A WEAPON THAT COULD DESTROY YOU!!”

“It would have also gotten you out of the time lock and allowed you to exterminate countless other species!”

“IT WAS A BETTER OPTION THAN THE ALTERNATIVE!!”

“If you want to negotiate, then let’s negotiate.”

“MY TERMS ARE ALREADY DEFINED!!”

The Dalek lowered itself to the ground and focused on The Doctor. Then it turned its eye stalk to look at some ponies it had stunned. It looked back to The Doctor. “WHY DID YOU TAKE THE APPEARANCE OF A MORE INFERIOR RACE!?!”

“I didn't, it’s just the natural laws of this universe at play.”

“UNDERSTANDABLE!! WHAT ARE YOUR TERMS!?!”

“Leave the planet and never come back.”

“I WILL LEAVE UPON YOUR DEATH!!”

“Then we are at a stalemate. I don't want to die and you don't want me alive.”

“THERE IS NO STALEMATE!! I WILL SIMPLY EXTERMINATE!! EXTERMINATE!!” the Dalek shrieked and began to shoot, luckily for The Doctor he had prepared for this and used the sonic on the Dalek’s eye stalk. The Dalek started to move its shell around and randomly firing. The Doctor ran back to the cover where Derpy had been hiding.

“MY VISION IS IMPAIRED!! EXTERMINATE!!”

“That Dalek will repair himself soon enough.”

“But it said it was designed to come to a truce with you, why did it fire?” Derpy asked following him.

“It was designed to negotiate a truce with the Time Lords, I am a personal enemy of the Daleks’, and my death must be one of the nonnegotiable points.”

“What’s a Time Lord?”

"Me! Now come on we need to get to the Princess, she is the only one who has a chance to destroy it."

"VISION REPAIRED!! BEGINNING PURSUIT!!"

The Doctor and Derpy ducked into the maze of back alleys that was in this newly built Canterlot. "As long as we stay out of its line of sight we should be safish."

"Safish!! What do you mean safish!?! Why are we even here? The Princess can just use the Elements of Harmony on him." Derpy burst out.

The Doctor turned towards her, the he gave a look of surprise. There had been a followed by an elderly grey blue pegasus, "Hello sir, may we help you?" The Doctor asked.

"Well Doctor you can't but I can help myself." the stallion said as he began to grow.

The Doctor's eyes went wide "Rrruuunnn!!" he yelled grabbing Derpy's hoof and running fast. Lazarus chooses this of all times to try to kill me. he thought as he ran. Lazarus was having difficulties in the narrow alleys but he was keeping up with them. The Doctor was leading them to the end of the alleys and into the open.

"Now I have you Doctor"

"And now We have you Destruction Follower!!" boomed a voice at Lazarus.

Lazarus turned to see that it was Princess Celestia's voice. "Why dear Celestia, you haven't caught me yet what..." he stopped as he saw that he had ran right into Celestia's and her guards. "Well, I'll be off" Lazarus said opening his wings and causing a strong enough wind to blow everypony down as he took off."

"UNKNOWN ENTITY DETECTED!! EXTERMINATE!! EXTERMINATE!!"

"Looks like Lazarus bought us some time. Celestia remember how we beat it however long ago it was?"

"Yes we do, you used your wand in conjunction with my magic to harm that monster."

"Exactly, if and when Lazarus leads it this way, be ready to shoot it..." he looked at the unicorn guards, "You lot as well."

"Who is this Lazarus you speak of?" Celestia asked.

"That's the monster that was chasing me."

"The Destruction Follower, one of my most ancient and deadly foes."

The Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver and got ready. "Yes him, his name is Lazarus and believe me he's just acting out of instinct. Nothing to worry about with him at all."

Suddenly Lazarus flew over then and one of the unicorn guards reacted and shot his wing. He was losing altitude all the while screaming vile human curses at The Doctor. Not that long after the Dalek shot overhead and Celestia shot it, the entire unicorn guards shot as well. The Doctor used his sonic to manipulate the wave lengths and the Dalek started to scream. It dropped out of the sky like a rock, its descent angle made it nock into the unfinished part of Canterlot.

The Doctor followed it with his eyes and listened for its crash. The moment he heard it he took off running and if it wasn't for Celestia and Derpy being able to fly they would have lost him. The Doctor found the Dalek, it was lying on its side with its primary stuck under some rubble.

"YOU HAVE COME TO KILL ME!?!"

"That depends will you leave this planet and never come back Dalek"

"WILL YOU DIE!?!"

"I'm sorry..." he stopped talking because the Dalek's eye went red.

"MASS EXTERMINATION!!!!" the Dalek boomed in an uncharacteristically deep voice.

"Oh please." The Doctor said sonicing the Dalek and his eye turned back to blue, "If your going to use a bomb don't have it be second rate."

"SELF DESTRUCT!!" the Dalek yelled activating his personal self destruct, which wouldn't be contained by his force field.

The Doctor took off running away and nearly hit Derpy because she was flying low. "We have to go! Now!" The Doctor shouted Derpy turned around and The Doctor was behind her. They didn't make it away in time, the explosion happened and The Doctor jumped onto Derpy to protect her and closed his eyes. He was feeling heat, pressure, and the energy, he supposed he was in the middle of regenerating now because he could still feel it. As the heat faded he opened his eyes to see he was in a golden bubble. He turned around and saw Princess Celestia had shielded him and Derpy with her magic.

The Doctor breathed heavily "Thank you Princess If you hadn't been here I would have had to regenerate, and that would have been annoying."

"You are welcome Doctor, now tell me about this Lazarus"

"Oh he's nothing don't worry. However I want to give you something. Would you come with us Princess?"

"Fine you can explain Lazarus on the way."

The Doctor made up a convoluted story about how Lazarus was an ancient unicorn that had dabbled in dark magic. The three of them were accompanied by some of Celestia's guards. When they finally made it to the Tardis The Doctor opened the door and walked in it, Derpy followed. "Well are you coming in?" The Doctor asked playfully.

Celestia stepped inside and said "It's bigger on the inside"

"Ooo I do love that bit. Now wait here I have something for you." He said as he went into the back of the Tardis. After a few moments he came out with a blue clock. Here this is a gift for you, as appreciation for keeping me from regenerating."

"Thank you."

"Now pardon me Princess but we must be off."

"Of course." Celestia said leaving the Tardis.

She stood back as the Tardis vanished. I don't recognize this type of magic she thought as she made her way back to her palace.

Celestia entered her throne room and was greeted by her adviser Rolling Thunder. "Princess! Oh thank goodness you're alright!" the grey blue pegasus exclaimed.

"I am not alright, I saw the Destruction Follower again."

This made Rolling Thunder frown, "He's been showing up more and more lately, you don't think something bad is going to happen?"

"No! He follows destruction, he does not herald it."

"Then we are simply having bad luck aren't we" he said turning from her to look out a window. He was really hiding his smile If she only knew.
