Of Owning A Muffin Store...Two Wolds With Rediculous DangersMuffin Eaters And Big Green Bog MonstersDiscovering The Weird And Harmful DangersRaxacoricofallapatorius... Or something like thatChoiceA Fake Real WorldI Have A Dream... Of Owning A Muffin Store...It was the start of a new day and Princess Celestia had just raised the sun. Ponyville was deserted as it was really early in the morning, the streets where completely empty, except for one street who had a population of one derpy pony trotting down it with some door keys in her hoof. She approached a building in the street with a locked door. She put the key in the keyhole and opened the door, she was open for business. Her shop name was "Muffin Manes" and it was the policy that all employees had to where a muffin in their mane, hence the name. Derpy's last adventure in the T.A.R.D.I.S was about three months ago, the last adventure she had was when Princess Twilight's crown was stolen and she went into to retrieve it, and the Doctor and Derpy followed, and in that three months, Derpy had accomplished her dream job, owning a muffin shop in Ponyville, the business was quite a success, the shop was known to make the best muffins in Equestria, she got thousands of bits everyday and she met new people and new friends who started out to be nothing but customers, the friends that she already knew stopped by everyday as well. One of her friends who stopped by everyday was also her best customer, the Doctor. Even though Derpy decided to leave the T.A.R.D.I.S to get on with her life, the Doctor still stayed in touch with her. The Doctor would be her first customer everyday to buy a muffin and to just say hello, he would come to the store seven a.m every morning. The time was six fifty nine a.m and she could see the Doctor coming over to the store in the horizon. The Doctor approached Derpy. "Hello Derpy! One blue berry muffin please!" the Doctor smiled, holding a few bits in his hoof to pay Derpy with. "Sure Doctor, wait a moment." Derpy replied. She reached out to the display cabinet and reached out for a blue berry muffin and gave it to the Doctor. "Here you go, Doctor, that'll be two bits." she smiled back. The Doctor passed the two bits over to Derpy and started to take huge bites out of the blueberry muffin. "So what did you do in the T.A.R.D.I.S lat night?" Derpy asked. "I trpheled to the cotie muk nebuule." the Doctor replied, rudely with a mouth full of wet, mushed up, blueberry muffin. "Don't talk with your mouth full! Swallow first!! Derpy laughed at the Doctor's embarrassing mistake. "What did you say?" she repeated. The Doctor swallowed his chewed muffin and repeated what he said the first time. "Sorry, I said that I went to see the cutie mark..." Suddenly, the Doctor and Derpy woke up on the T.A.R.D.I.S main control room floor, wondering what the hay happened to them. "...Nebula!" the Doctor mumbled, just waking up and getting up off the floor of the T.A.R.D.I.S. "What?! Sorry, fell asleep, long night with Pinkie Pie, I took her to Manehatten and it was a long night, things happened and I was really tired." the Doctor explained. "Ugh, why did I have to wake up? I was having a brilliant dream!" Derpy said in disappointment. "I'm going to try and remember it, at least I can still remember some of the dream fantasy." "Oh yeah? What was it about? I'm interested in my friends dreams, I love hearing about them." the Doctor asked. "I was doing my dream job, owning a muffin store, the store was called Muffin Manes and it was the best muffin store in Equestria, and you would come every morning to buy a muffin and say hello, you were me best customer and we would talk. For example, this time you came over and said you went to the cutie mark nebula." Derpy explained. The Doctor looked at Derpy very suspiciously, Derpy felt a bit scared, she didn't like the way the Doctor was looking at her. "W-What? Why are you looking at me like that?" Derpy asked. "It's just strange, I had the same dream, the exact same dream." the Doctor replied. "How could we have the exact same dream?" Derpy asked in huge confusion. "I don't know, Derpy. But I don't like the..." the Doctor replied before waking up again. The Doctor and Derpy woke back up with everypony in town looking at them, snickering. Derpy looked at the clock, it was now ten o clock a.m. The Doctor and Derpy were both very confused, there was a line of ponies outside the muffin store, waiting to be served, as soon as Derpy woke up that is. "...Idea." the Doctor mumbled on the floor again, the same way as he did on the T.A.R.D.I.S. Derpy looked at the Doctor. "What the hay is going on?" She asked. The Doctor surged his shoulders, he was just as confused as Derpy. "Never mind that." Derpy said, shaking the confusion and wonder out of her head. "I've got about a thousand ponies to serve." Derpy opened the shop door and let everypony in. She started to serve everypony one by one as fast as she could, the Doctor helped to make the job quicker and get rid of the storm of customers. It was about half an hour before the Doctor and Derpy cleared the room of customers, they were on their last customer of the over flow of customers, Berry Punch. "Here you go, Berry Punch, one beer muffin, that'll be two... two... bits..." Derpy said before she dozed off and fell asleep once again. Berry Punch decided to take the muffin and leave two bits and a note. Two Wolds With Rediculous DangersThe Doctor and Derpy woke up back in the T.A.R.D.I.S, when just two seconds ago, were in a muffin store. Still veery confused and their confusion won't leave them for a while. They felt dizzy, a side effect from whiting the two worlds. The Doctor was thinking what was going on, what was cousin this. Then the thought hit him like a bullet, there was only one thing in the universe that could do this. The Doctor knew that it was the only thing because it had happened before. "Oh... Could it be?" the Doctor mumbled under his breath. "What could what be?" Derpy asked, ease dropping on the Doctor's conversation he was having with himself. "This type of thing has happened before." the Doctor replied. "What has? Will you just tell me what it is instead of delaying it!" Derpy snapped. "Someone has done this before, he's called the Dream Lord!" the Doctor replied. Suddenly an image popped up in the T.A.R.D.I.S. A pony with a bow tie, that sounded like the Dream Lord. "Well, well, well, that didn't take as long as last time." the Dream Lord laughed. "I know, it's obvious it was you, since you are the only one who can do this." the Doctor replied, he wasn't very happy at all, he hated the Dream Lord, but hated his cheesy offensive jokes even more. "Then maybe i'll need to change my style, unlike you, you only change your style of cloths once every time you regenerate, how filthy is the bow tie and jacket, you dirty flop head wuss?" the Dream Lord asked, laughing at his own joke that was wasted on the Doctor. "Right, you don't need to explain what you're doing here, we already know what because we are keep moving from world to world." the Doctor replied obnoxiously. "I don't know what's going on, can some pony tell me?" Derpy asked. "I'll tell you later, Derpy." the Doctor answered. "I think we should tell her now, since she might die in one of these worlds." the Dream Lord smiled. "Let me tell you, Derpy. I have presented you with two worlds, the one in your muffin store and this world where you don't have a muffin store and you are in Ponyville with nothing different. At the moment, you are in the world where you don't own a muffin store and this is just the normal Ponyville, your just in the T.A.R.D.I.S, and in the other world, you have a dream job of owning and running a muffin store. But here's your challenge, one world is real and the other is fake, but in both worlds, you will face a deadly danger. If you die in the dream world, you wake up in the real world with full recovery, if you die in the real world, then you die in real life. I haven't set the deadly dangers yet, but i'm thinking of making one of them funny like last time. Remember those pensioners who tried to kill you, Doctor? Remember that old man on the motorised scooter that went two miles per hour who tried to kill you? That was hilarious!" the Dream Lord laughed. "Right, anyway, never mind that, i'm going to set the dangers." The Dream Lord vanished into the air. "Doctor, where did he go?" Derpy asked. Suddenly the Dream Lorn returned, smiling. "Ok, both dangers set, get ready for a party! I've just set one of the funniest and unexpected dangers ever, but have fun with that!" the Dream Lord smiled and vanished into the air once again. "Ok, Doctor, what do we do now?" Derpy asked worryingly. "Well as he said, there are dangers in both worlds and we need to find them and agree to lose the one we think is fake, I suggest that we look for the most ridiculous danger, either way we need to examine both dangers, no matter how ridiculous it is. I suggest that we examine this danger first before the Dream Lord puts us in the other world." the Doctor suggested. The Doctor and Derpy walked out of the T.A.R.D.I.S to find a normal Ponyville. It seemed normal, but the was only one strange thing, everypony in town was looking up at the sky to see a giant smoke cloud floating up towards the sky. The smoke was originating from the everfree forest. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the sound of birds chirping hit the Doctor and Derpy's ears, but there was no birds around. "Doctor, why can I hear birds?" Derpy asked, dozing off. "This is how the Dream Lord switches people from world two world, by putting one version of yourself asleep in one world and awake in the other. Just keep strong and don't fall for his tricks." the Doctor replied. The Doctor and Derpy fell to the floor, sleeping on top of each other, looking like some of the cutest things in existence. The Doctor and Derpy woke back up in the other world, Derpy found a note and two bits and but them in the cash register. They looked outside and the town was deserted. Everypony was at the border of town, just outside the everfree forest, everypony was worried and confused as all they could hear is loud screaming coming with in, no pony dared to go in and no pony knew what it was. "It looks like we've found the dangers of this world as well, seems like both dangers are in the everfree forest." the Doctor pointed out. Muffin Eaters And Big Green Bog MonstersThe Doctor and Derpy were at the border for about half an hour, no pony still didn't want to go in, they were still to scared. Derpy felt the same as everypony else, the only pony who didn't feel scared was the Doctor, who was twitching, fidgeting, eager go into the everfree forest to find out what was making the noise. He was pushing himself to run inside until he had enough of waiting around. He turned to Derpy whose eyes were glued to the forest. "Derpy, how about you skip running the muffin shop for today and let's go into the forest to find out what that is?" the Doctor asked. "Why?" Derpy asked. "Remember, because we need to find out what this worlds threat is!" the Doctor replied. Derpy thought for a while. Thinking what danger could be lying ahead of them. Then her answer was clear. "Yeah, but only together, then we'll have less chance of dying in there." Derpy suggested. "Together!" the Doctor replied. He looked at the forest ahead of then and then looked back at Derpy. He grabbed her hoof. "Into the looking glass, Derpy." the Doctor smiled. Derpy and the Doctor ran into the Everfree forest with everypony looking at them, they ran to the entrance of the darkened path and soon , couldn't be seen from the outside. Soon, the Doctor and Derpy were about a mile into the forest, it was very dark, and very creepy. The loud noise that sounded like screaming was very close. The Doctor and Derpy kept running towards it as fast as they could. About half an hour later, the Doctor and Derpy reached the area where the screaming was coming from, but they soon learned that it wasn't screaming. Derpy ran ahead, but the Doctor stopped her by grabbing her tail and pointed out the danger that she was about to fall down. "Derpy! Will you please look where you were going?! You almost fell down that hole in the ground!" the Doctor shouted. "Sorry." Derpy replied. "Well, it seems that the noise that everypony heard is coming from the hole you almost fell down. Everypony said that they thought it was screaming, but listen, that's not screaming, that's a voice repeating itself." the Doctor explained. "What do you think it's sayi-" Derpy said before she was cut off by the Doctor. "Hush!" the Doctor demanded. "But I was just wondering if you knew what it was sayi-" Derpy tried to explain before she was cut off by the Doctor again. "Hush! I'm trying to figure out what it's saying!" the Doctor replied. "Ugh, whatever!" Derpy shouted, she was giving up asking the Doctor if he was just going to talk over her all the time, why should she even open her mouth at all? Meanwhile, the Doctor was still trying to figure out what the voice was saying and he couldn't work it out. It was always repeating the same thing over and over. It seemed to be a rhyme. The Doctor turned the Derpy to ask what was actually in the hole, she might know what's in it. "Derpy, what's in this hole anyway?" the Doctor asked. "Oh that? That's just the mirror pool, it creates clones of whoever says the special rhyme in the refection of the pool." Derpy explained. "Right, well I think someone has been doing that?" the Doctor replied. "What makes you think that?" Derpy asked. "Because I think I can hear the exact same voice saying the rhyme over and over. But I can't hear just one voice saying it, I can hear loads saying it at the same time. How many clones has that some pony down there made?" the Doctor was worrying. Suddenly the rhyme that the voice was saying had stopped, and the Doctor and Derpy could hear thousands of foot steps coming towards them from the hole. "Derpy! I Think we should get back!" the Doctor suggested. Derpy and the Doctor hid behind a hole in the cave behind them. Then to their surprise, thousands upon thousands of baby dragons, also known as Spike came bursting through the ground. All of them were chanting the word "Food" over and over. The Doctor and Derpy just looked in confusion. Suddenly, the Dream lord appeared out from the blue. "Attack of the baby dragons? That's ridiculous, this must be the dream. Lets all jump of the cliff above us and wake back up in the other world, you first!" the Dream Lord smiled. "Oh, be quite, no one want's you hear!" the Doctor shouted. "You're very aggressive today, maybe you need a little sleep." the Dream Lord replied. The Doctor and Derpy dropped to the floor like dominos. They woke back up in the other world with everypony still looking at them, laughing at them because they looked so cute lying together outside a blue box. But it still was embarrassing for the Doctor and Derpy. The Doctor approached a pony. "Excuse me, how long have we been sleeping on the floor?" the Doctor asked. "About five minutes!" the pony giggled. "Right, thank you." the Doctor replied. He trotted back over to Derpy. "We've been asleep for five minutes." the Doctor informed. "Really? But last time we fell asleep, we were gone for hours and were only awake for a five minutes in the other world, so how can we be gone for hours in one world and only be asleep for five minutes in the other?" Derpy asked. "The Dream Lord must be messing with time as well. Come on, we need to get to that smoke cloud, see what dangers are ahead of us here." the Doctor suggested. The Doctor and Derpy decided to not waste any more time they had, they ran towards the everfree forest, towards the giant smoke cloud. They reached the source of it, they found out it was a spaceship. The Doctor opened the spaceship doors to find a group of Slitheen from the planet Raxacoricofallapatorious. "Derpy, we need to get back now. I think we've found the threat in this world." the Doctor suggested. Suddenly, one of the Slitheen woke up and started to chase the Doctor and Derpy. "No, run, run!" the Doctor shouted. "We need to get away from it, we need to hide until we have a chance to fight it!" Discovering The Weird And Harmful DangersThe Doctor and Derpy luckily vanished out of the slitheen's sight.They hid back in the T.A.R.D.I.S to be safe. Suddenly, the Doctor and Derpy fell asleep and fell to the floor from the tricks of the Dream Lords bird chirping song. They woke back up in the other world on top of each other, still hiding in the cave. Something was strange, the loud voices that they heard from the millions of Spike's that came rushing out of the entrance to the mirror pool was no longer in that location. Instead, it was coming from where they started, back at Ponyville. They could still hear faint screams of the same voices simultaneously saying the word "Food." Derpy turned to the Doctor in worry. "Doctor, do you think that the Spike's have moved to Ponyville?" Derpy asked. "Must have, I'm just wondering what they would do." the Doctor replied. "Why are you worrying about that?" Derpy asked in confusion. "He's only a baby dragon." "Derpy, how scary is the word deadly danger to you?" the Doctor asked. "Very scary, of course, it's in the words them selves, deadly danger." Derpy replied. "So what makes you think that age or size makes any difference?" the Doctor asked again. "Yeah, sorry never mind." Derpy replied, looking down in shame of her stupidity. "You don't need to be so obnoxious about it." Suddenly, the Dream Lord appeared smiling at the Doctor. The Doctor knew the look, he knew that the Dream Lords only reason for appearing again is to tease him, to push his buttons. "Yes, Doctor, don't be so mean. I know you've got two deadly dangers on your hoofs, but that doesn't mean you can talk to your friends like scum. Sometimes I think that you don't treat them as friends, and you treat them as solders to go into your battles and fight in the front lines." the Dream Lord smiled. The Doctor looked at the Dream Lord with a serious look of one hundred percent hate between each other. The Doctor moved along, kept moving as he knew that the Dream Lord was only out to annoy him. "Come on, Derpy! We don't have time for him!" the Doctor shouted, not looking back. Derpy looked back to the Dream Lord and saw he had a massive cheesy smile in his face. She was going to smile back until she realised the tricks he was trying to pull on the Doctor and herself. Derpy followed the Doctor. "So, where are we going?" Derpy asked. "We're going back to Ponyville, to see how exactly the Spike's are dangerous, what chaos have they caused." the Doctor replied. "What chaos do you think they have caused?" Derpy asked. "I don't know, I don't know much on mischievous dragons who clone themselves to terrorise towns." the Doctor laughed. The Doctor and Derpy reached the edge of Ponyville and they where gobsmacked. The mass amounts of damage don't by the huge tilde waves of baby dragons were off the scale insane. Houses destroyed, ponies running around the place, screaming in fear. They will never go near something purple or green without getting a shock ever again. "Do you think they were in search of food?" Derpy asked. "Must be, that was what they were chanting twenty four seven." the Doctor replied. Suddenly, a pack of at least seven Spike's came from the shadows towards an untouched house, still screaming "Food." They went towards the untouched house, and together, they ripped the house apart, the floor, the walls and the roof, nothing was left. "O...K..." Derpy said in confusion. Derpy looked over to her muffin store, which was completely destroyed. A tear grew in Derpy's eye. She looked down in sadness. "D-Derpy, are you ok?" the Doctor asked. "No, I'm not ok, my dream job has been destroyed." Derpy snapped, rage built up inside her and she was about to blow. "I have decided. This is the dream world!" "How do you know?" the Doctor asked. "Because I don't want this, I worked hard to get that job, to live my dream, when I get hold of Twilight, I'm going to scream!" Derpy replied. "We can't do anything about it now, I'm sorry, but still, It's a weird danger but its still a danger, at least we know what the danger is. Now we need to find out what the danger is in the other..." the Doctor stated before he fell to the floor along with Derpy as the birds sang their song. The Doctor and Derpy woke back up in the T.A.R.D.I.S in the other world. "...World. Ah! The Dream Lord switched us again! Any way, it's time to find out what danger the Slitheen represent. I'm guessing it's something to do with destroying the planet and making money out of it. I mainly think this because it's what they're always after." the Doctor pointed out. "What are we going to do?" Derpy asked. "Well, the Slitheen are more hostile than baby, hungry Spike's. It'll be harder to approach them. Get ready, there may be close to death experiences!" the Doctor pointed out. The Doctor and Derpy ran towards the T.A.R.D.I.S door to go find the Slitheen. They ran back towards the everfree forest, where they found the Slitheen and where the smoke cloud was still coming from. The Doctor was worried that Derpy may be harmed, as she may not be able to pay as much attention as before as she had seen her dream job taken away from her by rabid baby dragons. Raxacoricofallapatorius... Or something like thatThe Doctor and Derpy reached the everfree forest and hid behind a tree, close to the crash sight of the slitheen spaceship. "So what do we do?" Derpy asked. "Well, Slitheen are normally very stupid, they haven't grasped sonic technology yet. They don't know every thing it's capable of, so I can fool them with it." the Doctor replied. "So because some species in the universe haven't discovered sonic technology, that means they're stupid?" Derpy asked sarcastically. "Oh, sorry. I wasn't trying to insult you, just saying it's pretty easy to make." the Doctor replied. "Not exactly, you don't see much technology in Equestria, unlike your universe, those humans use it on an everyday bases." Derpy pointed out. " Sometimes I think Vinyl Scratch is the most technologically advanced pony in Equestria." Derpy laughed. "Yeah, I met her once, her speaker system almost broke my sonic screwdriver, first time that ever happened, she's a strange pony!" the Doctor laughed."Ok, ok. We need to quite down now, the rest of the slitheen are waking up and the other one who chased us is coming back, we can't get caught when we're not ready." The slitheen woke up and had no idea that the Doctor and Derpy were behind the near by tree. The smaller, child slitheen who chased the Doctor and Derpy, spoke first and sounded pretty annoyed with his group, or his family. "Will you get up? Do you realise what you have done?" the young green slitheen snapped. "No, not really, what?" the bigger slitheen asked. He seemed to be the father. "You didn't put the stableizers on, did you? Or we wouldn't of crashed!" the smaller slitheen shouted, he seemed the be the spoiled brat of the family. "It was one little thing he forgot, you don't need to shout at him like that." the other bigger female slitheen replied, she must be the mother of the family. "What the hell do you mean, little thing? Because of him we crashed! And we were seen by two lifeforms on this planet! Intelligent lifeforms! You're just lucky I woke up before they could do anything." the child snapped once more. "What?! Did they do anything? Did they discover anything?" the father said in worry. "Luckily, no. They were just approaching when I saw them, I hunted chased them and attempted to hunt them, hut they got away, the good news is that they got scared and it is a very low chance they'll come back." the child replied in relief. "Which means they didn't find out our plans." "Well, now that were back into consciousness, we best start revising the plan, make sure we get it right." the father suggested. He got a bunch of blue prints out of the ship and lay them out on the ground. "Right, it's a simple plan really, one of our simplest. We have the nuclear bombs, we aim these at every city on the planet, we launch the nuclear bombs and detonate them. We get two benefits in one plan, we wipe out all life on this primitive planet and we turn this planet to nuclear waste to sell, piece by piece." the child explained. Meanwhile, back behind the tree, the Doctor and Derpy were debating what to do to stop the slithers plans to destroy and sell the planet. "Right, Derpy, are you ready?" the Doctor asked. "Ready for what?" Derpy answered. "Just go with it!" the Doctor smiled. He jumped out behind the tree into plain sight. Derpy resisted but the Doctor pulled her out from behind the tree. "Hello! Next time you might want to wiser your plans!" the Doctor laughed. "There! It was them two who I sacred off!" the child panicked. "What do we do?" the father asked. "Leave this to me! I think it's time we knew who is repeatedly interfering with our private, family conversations!" the mother said. She picked up a strange device that the Doctor recognised. It was an ID scanner. "He is identified! He's the Doctor!" the mother shouted. "So you're not so confused to why I'm in this universe then?" the Doctor asked. "A lot of your enemies now know about the rift you left when you came to this universe, some are scared to go though it because they know what happend to the ones who did go though, when ever they tried to invade this planet, you stopped them. The Sontarans, the Cyber men, but we're not scared of you. We are willing to give it a try!" the mother shouted. "Well, now I'm going to stop you!" the Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver. "With this!" the Doctor smiled. The Doctor pointed his sonic screwdriver at the nuclear bombs, he set the bombs countdown to show the timer for the bomb to explode in thirty minutes. But only the count down, not the bomb, so really, the Doctor was fooling the slithers by only setting off the countdown, letting the countdown go to zero and sit back and watch nothing happen. "You fool!" the father shouted. "Everyone in the ship, we're getting out of here!" The mother shouted. The slitheen hopped into their ship and flew away back in the sky. "See, told you, stupid, it was easy to resold the problem they caused, just scare them off!" the Doctor laughed. "Anyway, now to turn this fake countdown off. The Doctor activated his sonic screwdriver to stop the fake countdown, but his screwdriver was giving him different readings. "Oh dear, Derpy, it seems when I attempted to start a fake countdown, I actually started the real countdown, and it seems to be dead locked as soon as it's activated!" the Doctor explained. "W-what do we do?" Derpy asked. "All we can do, choose! Choose a world!" the Doctor replied. "I'll need to look at the other world again, to see which one seems more real." Derpy stated. "We don't have control of switching ourselves between worlds, only the Dream Lord..." the Doctor and Derpy fell to the floor by the sound of birds once again and woke back up in the other world. "...Has control." Choice"Ah! Ok, the Dream Lord switched us. Here you go, Derpy,one last look at this world and then we can choose which battle to lose." the Doctor stated. "Hang on, we've just got here, but how do I look for clues to see which is real and which is fake? How do I choose a world?" Derpy asked, about to get stressed out. "I don't know, but we need to choose quickly, otherwise we won't have a choice to choose if the nuclear bombs go off in the other world, just look around for clues, look at the dangers and your surroundings." the Doctor suggested. Derpy, stared into space, thinking about everything that happened in both worlds, every single detail. The dangers, the surroundings, and the probability of the danger happening in the real world, just like the Doctor suggested. Suddenly, the Dream Lord appeared without Derpy noticing because she was concentrating. The Dream Lord snook up into Derpy's face, smiling like a creep. "You look like you're thinking very hard, how do you feel? For a dumb dozy pony like you it must be really hard." the Dream Lord laughed. He gave Derpy a shock when he spoke, her hate for him grew. "Leave her alone!" the Doctor demanded, stepping in and stopping the abusive comments. "Oh, yeah, that thing that you do. The big old 'Leave her alone!' speech that you give all the time. Acting like you're a though guy, just because you battled Cyber men, Sontaran's and Dalek's, and win." the Dream Lord said, mocking the Doctor, trying to make him lose his temper. "If I can defeat them, then I can easily defeat you." the Doctor snapped. "But you don't always win, do you? Sometimes they win and sometimes, you die, you regenerate!" the Dream Lord turned to Derpy. "Derpy, has the Doctor told you about regeneration?" the Dream Lord asked. "Yes, of course he has, he can bring himself back to life with regeneration energy." Derpy replied. "Good, at least he's told you something that's true, the Doctor always lies, no matter how good of a friend you are, he has no concept of trust at all." the Dream Lord turned to the Doctor. "Doctor, what reincarnation of yourself are you?" the Dream Lord asked. "The eleventh reincarnation. What has this got to do with anything?" the Doctor replied. "Exactly, the eleventh reincarnation, and a Time Lord can only regenerate twelve times, you are near the end of your life." the Dream Lord turned to Derpy once more. "Better pack your bags, Derpy and move out of the T.A.R.D.I.S, he's only got a few years left until he dies, and if he dies, how will you ever get home to Ponyville?" the Dream Lord asked, doing his best to anger both, Derpy and the Doctor. The Dream Lord spoke again. "But I don't think you'll need to wait that long to move out, Derpy, since he abandons all of his companions in the end anyway." the Dream Lord smirked. "What do you mean 'Abandoned'?" Derpy asked, worried. "Well not all are abandoned. Some are abandoned, some get trapped, some the Doctor leaves behind when he gets bored of the current companion and some die." the Dream Lord explained. "What? D-Doctor, what is he talking about?" Derpy asked. "Has he ever told you about his past companions? Rose Tyler? Trapped in a parallel world. Martha Jones? She was lucky to escape the death the Doctor almost brought her, she only had half her life destroyed. Donna Noble? The Doctor wiped her memory so she wouldn't die. Amy Pond and Rory Williams? Trapped about fifty years into the past. Every companion the famous Doctor has dies, all because he let his guard down for a few seconds." the Dream Lord replied. "It's not always my fault!" the Doctor shouted, loosing his temper. "Doctor, lets just stop this, he's just doing this to slow us down and to irritate us. Just leave him, I've decided on a world." Derpy announced. "Which one? Which reality?" the Doctor asked. "This one, with the rabbit Spikes." Derpy replied. "Ok, that means we'll need to kill ourselves so we are no longer active in this world. Come on!" the Doctor shouted. The Doctor and Derpy ran away from the Dream Lord to find something to make themselves deceased. "What made you think this was the dream world?" the Doctor asked. "You said observe the danger. Killer Spikes? Give me a break! Even if Spike wanted to do that, he wouldn't be capable of doing the damage he did." Derpy laughed. "Oh yeah, that's so simple! Why didn't I think of that?!" the Doctor laughed. "So what are we going to do to deactivate ourselves in this world?" the Doctor asked. "I was thinking the edge of the cliff top in the everfree forest, should be quick and easy. Also, why do you keep saying deceased or deactivate?" Derpy asked. "Just looking for a word that is more pleasant that kill ourselves." the Doctor replied. The Doctor and Derpy ran through the everfree forest and reached the highest peek of the cliff top in the middle of the forest, about one hundred and fifty feet high above ground. They reached the cliff top and were out of breath. Ready to jump, the Doctor looked down and a shiver ran through his body. Derpy turned to the Doctor. "Doctor, I'm nervous, can we jump together?" Derpy asked. "Of course." the Doctor replied. "Ha, feel kind of weird asking you to jump with me to a possible death." Derpy smiled. "Don't worry about that, we would both need to die in the dream world to win anyway. Ok, ready? One, Two, Three!" the Doctor shouted. The Doctor and Derpy jumped together, falling to their death, hoping to die and wake up in the possible real world. Hopefully, Derpy was right. A Fake Real WorldThe Doctor and Derpy woke up slowly, with their eyes gusting to the light of the sun they were under. They had no idea what just happened, dying in a world and waking up in shock in the other world sometimes has that effect. They waited for their minds to kick in. They looked up to see the Dream Lord, standing next to the nuclear bombs with only thirty seconds left in the countdown. The Dream Lord looked at the Doctor and Derpy, smiling. "So... You chose this world." the Dream Lord said. The Doctor and Derpy awaited an answer from the Dream Lord. "Hmm... Well done, you got it right. And with only thirty seconds left, lucky you." the Dream Lord said sarcastically. The Doctor and Derpy smiled at each other. "Lets turn these nuclear bombs off, before you die." The Dream Lord reached out to the bombs that were about to destroy the entire world and deactivated them. The Dream Lord looked at the Doctor once more. "Well done, Doctor. You have defeated me once again. As before, I shall depart... Farewell." The Dream Lord disappeared for the last time, never appearing in front of the Doctor or Derpy again. "That was a hard one. But at least we won." Derpy smiled. "No. No, we haven't, not yet." the Doctor replied. "Sorry, what? But he's gone now, he said we won!" Derpy pointed out. "Yes. Thank you for pointing that out, Derpy. But remember, I've battled him and his cheap tricks before, I know how he works. Come on, Derpy, lets get back to the T.A.R.D.I.S, and don't worry, we will win, I'll explain in the T.A.R.D.I.S." the Doctor replied. The Doctor and Derpy ran back to the T.A.R.D.I.S as fast as they could, with out stopping. They entered the T.A.R.D.I.S and shut the blue doors. The Doctor trotted towards the T.A.R.D.I.S console. "So, Doctor, why did you want to get here so fast?" Derpy asked. "I thought you said you wanted to get out of the dream world as fas as you could, didn't you?" the Doctor smiled, he knew something that Derpy didn't about the Dream Lord. "But we are. He said we won. Remember?" Derpy asked in huge confusion. "Remember, Derpy. I know his tricks. Let me explain. The Dream Lord has no control over the real world, at all. He was actually giving us a choice between two dreams." the Doctor explained. "But he said we won." Derpy replied. "Yes he did, but did you notice how helpful he was? When we chose this world, he said we won and deactivated the danger, so we wouldn't die. If you die in a dream you wake up in reality, he was saving us in this dream, so we wouldn't wake up in real life. We are still in a dream world. And the more time spent in the dream world is more time spent dreaming in the real world. We end up wasting our lives living in a fake world. That's his trick. Making you live in a fake world, when you don't know it, wasting away in the real world, dreaming." the Doctor explained. "Strange way to kill you." Derpy laughed. "I know, but he's a strange life form." the Doctor replied. "So what are you going to do to wake us up in the real, real world?" Derpy asked. "I'm going to blow up the planet with the T.A.R.D.I.S." the Doctor replied. "Um... OK." Derpy smiled. "Hold on tight!" the Doctor smiled. The Doctor set the levers into place and was ready to press the button to blow up the T.A.R.D.I.S. "Three, Two, One!" the Doctor pressed the button. A huge ball of fire was exploding in the centre of the console and was quickly expanding to the whole T.A.R.D.I.S. The explosion reached the walls of the inside of the time machine and a huge bang was produced that could be heard lightyears away, blowing the planet up with it. The Doctor and Derpy woke up in the actual real world. The Doctor was standing in front of the console and Derpy had just entered the main control room. "Any questions?" the Doctor asked. "Yeah, just one. Who was the Dream Lord?" Derpy asked. "He is a dark version of me. He has done what he did to me to thousands of others before. Some life forms know he's the dark version of me. The Dalek's tried to recruit him one time. But instead, he done what he done to us. Some life forms call him 'The Dark Doctor' or 'The Valeyard.'" the Doctor explained. "But what so dark about you?" Derpy asked. "I'm nine hundred years old, there was bound to be something dark in me." the Doctor replied. Derpy smiled back. "I guess it's time to send you back home now. I've got other ponies to take around time and space, but don't worry, Derpy, you'll always be my number one mare!" the Doctor smiled. "Thank you, Doctor. I guess you're my number one time travelling pony from another universe." Derpy laughed. The T.A.R.D.I.S landed in Ponyville and the Doctor and Derpy walked out and the Doctor locked the doors. "I Feel like having a milkshake." the Doctor said randomly. "Yeah, same. Come on, i'll take you to Sugar Cube Corner, see if Pinkie Pie's got any special flavours on sale today." Derpy smiled.
I Have A Dream... Of Owning A Muffin Store...It was the start of a new day and Princess Celestia had just raised the sun. Ponyville was deserted as it was really early in the morning, the streets where completely empty, except for one street who had a population of one derpy pony trotting down it with some door keys in her hoof. She approached a building in the street with a locked door. She put the key in the keyhole and opened the door, she was open for business. Her shop name was "Muffin Manes" and it was the policy that all employees had to where a muffin in their mane, hence the name. Derpy's last adventure in the T.A.R.D.I.S was about three months ago, the last adventure she had was when Princess Twilight's crown was stolen and she went into to retrieve it, and the Doctor and Derpy followed, and in that three months, Derpy had accomplished her dream job, owning a muffin shop in Ponyville, the business was quite a success, the shop was known to make the best muffins in Equestria, she got thousands of bits everyday and she met new people and new friends who started out to be nothing but customers, the friends that she already knew stopped by everyday as well. One of her friends who stopped by everyday was also her best customer, the Doctor. Even though Derpy decided to leave the T.A.R.D.I.S to get on with her life, the Doctor still stayed in touch with her. The Doctor would be her first customer everyday to buy a muffin and to just say hello, he would come to the store seven a.m every morning. The time was six fifty nine a.m and she could see the Doctor coming over to the store in the horizon. The Doctor approached Derpy. "Hello Derpy! One blue berry muffin please!" the Doctor smiled, holding a few bits in his hoof to pay Derpy with. "Sure Doctor, wait a moment." Derpy replied. She reached out to the display cabinet and reached out for a blue berry muffin and gave it to the Doctor. "Here you go, Doctor, that'll be two bits." she smiled back. The Doctor passed the two bits over to Derpy and started to take huge bites out of the blueberry muffin. "So what did you do in the T.A.R.D.I.S lat night?" Derpy asked. "I trpheled to the cotie muk nebuule." the Doctor replied, rudely with a mouth full of wet, mushed up, blueberry muffin. "Don't talk with your mouth full! Swallow first!! Derpy laughed at the Doctor's embarrassing mistake. "What did you say?" she repeated. The Doctor swallowed his chewed muffin and repeated what he said the first time. "Sorry, I said that I went to see the cutie mark..." Suddenly, the Doctor and Derpy woke up on the T.A.R.D.I.S main control room floor, wondering what the hay happened to them. "...Nebula!" the Doctor mumbled, just waking up and getting up off the floor of the T.A.R.D.I.S. "What?! Sorry, fell asleep, long night with Pinkie Pie, I took her to Manehatten and it was a long night, things happened and I was really tired." the Doctor explained. "Ugh, why did I have to wake up? I was having a brilliant dream!" Derpy said in disappointment. "I'm going to try and remember it, at least I can still remember some of the dream fantasy." "Oh yeah? What was it about? I'm interested in my friends dreams, I love hearing about them." the Doctor asked. "I was doing my dream job, owning a muffin store, the store was called Muffin Manes and it was the best muffin store in Equestria, and you would come every morning to buy a muffin and say hello, you were me best customer and we would talk. For example, this time you came over and said you went to the cutie mark nebula." Derpy explained. The Doctor looked at Derpy very suspiciously, Derpy felt a bit scared, she didn't like the way the Doctor was looking at her. "W-What? Why are you looking at me like that?" Derpy asked. "It's just strange, I had the same dream, the exact same dream." the Doctor replied. "How could we have the exact same dream?" Derpy asked in huge confusion. "I don't know, Derpy. But I don't like the..." the Doctor replied before waking up again. The Doctor and Derpy woke back up with everypony in town looking at them, snickering. Derpy looked at the clock, it was now ten o clock a.m. The Doctor and Derpy were both very confused, there was a line of ponies outside the muffin store, waiting to be served, as soon as Derpy woke up that is. "...Idea." the Doctor mumbled on the floor again, the same way as he did on the T.A.R.D.I.S. Derpy looked at the Doctor. "What the hay is going on?" She asked. The Doctor surged his shoulders, he was just as confused as Derpy. "Never mind that." Derpy said, shaking the confusion and wonder out of her head. "I've got about a thousand ponies to serve." Derpy opened the shop door and let everypony in. She started to serve everypony one by one as fast as she could, the Doctor helped to make the job quicker and get rid of the storm of customers. It was about half an hour before the Doctor and Derpy cleared the room of customers, they were on their last customer of the over flow of customers, Berry Punch. "Here you go, Berry Punch, one beer muffin, that'll be two... two... bits..." Derpy said before she dozed off and fell asleep once again. Berry Punch decided to take the muffin and leave two bits and a note.
Two Wolds With Rediculous DangersThe Doctor and Derpy woke up back in the T.A.R.D.I.S, when just two seconds ago, were in a muffin store. Still veery confused and their confusion won't leave them for a while. They felt dizzy, a side effect from whiting the two worlds. The Doctor was thinking what was going on, what was cousin this. Then the thought hit him like a bullet, there was only one thing in the universe that could do this. The Doctor knew that it was the only thing because it had happened before. "Oh... Could it be?" the Doctor mumbled under his breath. "What could what be?" Derpy asked, ease dropping on the Doctor's conversation he was having with himself. "This type of thing has happened before." the Doctor replied. "What has? Will you just tell me what it is instead of delaying it!" Derpy snapped. "Someone has done this before, he's called the Dream Lord!" the Doctor replied. Suddenly an image popped up in the T.A.R.D.I.S. A pony with a bow tie, that sounded like the Dream Lord. "Well, well, well, that didn't take as long as last time." the Dream Lord laughed. "I know, it's obvious it was you, since you are the only one who can do this." the Doctor replied, he wasn't very happy at all, he hated the Dream Lord, but hated his cheesy offensive jokes even more. "Then maybe i'll need to change my style, unlike you, you only change your style of cloths once every time you regenerate, how filthy is the bow tie and jacket, you dirty flop head wuss?" the Dream Lord asked, laughing at his own joke that was wasted on the Doctor. "Right, you don't need to explain what you're doing here, we already know what because we are keep moving from world to world." the Doctor replied obnoxiously. "I don't know what's going on, can some pony tell me?" Derpy asked. "I'll tell you later, Derpy." the Doctor answered. "I think we should tell her now, since she might die in one of these worlds." the Dream Lord smiled. "Let me tell you, Derpy. I have presented you with two worlds, the one in your muffin store and this world where you don't have a muffin store and you are in Ponyville with nothing different. At the moment, you are in the world where you don't own a muffin store and this is just the normal Ponyville, your just in the T.A.R.D.I.S, and in the other world, you have a dream job of owning and running a muffin store. But here's your challenge, one world is real and the other is fake, but in both worlds, you will face a deadly danger. If you die in the dream world, you wake up in the real world with full recovery, if you die in the real world, then you die in real life. I haven't set the deadly dangers yet, but i'm thinking of making one of them funny like last time. Remember those pensioners who tried to kill you, Doctor? Remember that old man on the motorised scooter that went two miles per hour who tried to kill you? That was hilarious!" the Dream Lord laughed. "Right, anyway, never mind that, i'm going to set the dangers." The Dream Lord vanished into the air. "Doctor, where did he go?" Derpy asked. Suddenly the Dream Lorn returned, smiling. "Ok, both dangers set, get ready for a party! I've just set one of the funniest and unexpected dangers ever, but have fun with that!" the Dream Lord smiled and vanished into the air once again. "Ok, Doctor, what do we do now?" Derpy asked worryingly. "Well as he said, there are dangers in both worlds and we need to find them and agree to lose the one we think is fake, I suggest that we look for the most ridiculous danger, either way we need to examine both dangers, no matter how ridiculous it is. I suggest that we examine this danger first before the Dream Lord puts us in the other world." the Doctor suggested. The Doctor and Derpy walked out of the T.A.R.D.I.S to find a normal Ponyville. It seemed normal, but the was only one strange thing, everypony in town was looking up at the sky to see a giant smoke cloud floating up towards the sky. The smoke was originating from the everfree forest. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the sound of birds chirping hit the Doctor and Derpy's ears, but there was no birds around. "Doctor, why can I hear birds?" Derpy asked, dozing off. "This is how the Dream Lord switches people from world two world, by putting one version of yourself asleep in one world and awake in the other. Just keep strong and don't fall for his tricks." the Doctor replied. The Doctor and Derpy fell to the floor, sleeping on top of each other, looking like some of the cutest things in existence. The Doctor and Derpy woke back up in the other world, Derpy found a note and two bits and but them in the cash register. They looked outside and the town was deserted. Everypony was at the border of town, just outside the everfree forest, everypony was worried and confused as all they could hear is loud screaming coming with in, no pony dared to go in and no pony knew what it was. "It looks like we've found the dangers of this world as well, seems like both dangers are in the everfree forest." the Doctor pointed out.
Muffin Eaters And Big Green Bog MonstersThe Doctor and Derpy were at the border for about half an hour, no pony still didn't want to go in, they were still to scared. Derpy felt the same as everypony else, the only pony who didn't feel scared was the Doctor, who was twitching, fidgeting, eager go into the everfree forest to find out what was making the noise. He was pushing himself to run inside until he had enough of waiting around. He turned to Derpy whose eyes were glued to the forest. "Derpy, how about you skip running the muffin shop for today and let's go into the forest to find out what that is?" the Doctor asked. "Why?" Derpy asked. "Remember, because we need to find out what this worlds threat is!" the Doctor replied. Derpy thought for a while. Thinking what danger could be lying ahead of them. Then her answer was clear. "Yeah, but only together, then we'll have less chance of dying in there." Derpy suggested. "Together!" the Doctor replied. He looked at the forest ahead of then and then looked back at Derpy. He grabbed her hoof. "Into the looking glass, Derpy." the Doctor smiled. Derpy and the Doctor ran into the Everfree forest with everypony looking at them, they ran to the entrance of the darkened path and soon , couldn't be seen from the outside. Soon, the Doctor and Derpy were about a mile into the forest, it was very dark, and very creepy. The loud noise that sounded like screaming was very close. The Doctor and Derpy kept running towards it as fast as they could. About half an hour later, the Doctor and Derpy reached the area where the screaming was coming from, but they soon learned that it wasn't screaming. Derpy ran ahead, but the Doctor stopped her by grabbing her tail and pointed out the danger that she was about to fall down. "Derpy! Will you please look where you were going?! You almost fell down that hole in the ground!" the Doctor shouted. "Sorry." Derpy replied. "Well, it seems that the noise that everypony heard is coming from the hole you almost fell down. Everypony said that they thought it was screaming, but listen, that's not screaming, that's a voice repeating itself." the Doctor explained. "What do you think it's sayi-" Derpy said before she was cut off by the Doctor. "Hush!" the Doctor demanded. "But I was just wondering if you knew what it was sayi-" Derpy tried to explain before she was cut off by the Doctor again. "Hush! I'm trying to figure out what it's saying!" the Doctor replied. "Ugh, whatever!" Derpy shouted, she was giving up asking the Doctor if he was just going to talk over her all the time, why should she even open her mouth at all? Meanwhile, the Doctor was still trying to figure out what the voice was saying and he couldn't work it out. It was always repeating the same thing over and over. It seemed to be a rhyme. The Doctor turned the Derpy to ask what was actually in the hole, she might know what's in it. "Derpy, what's in this hole anyway?" the Doctor asked. "Oh that? That's just the mirror pool, it creates clones of whoever says the special rhyme in the refection of the pool." Derpy explained. "Right, well I think someone has been doing that?" the Doctor replied. "What makes you think that?" Derpy asked. "Because I think I can hear the exact same voice saying the rhyme over and over. But I can't hear just one voice saying it, I can hear loads saying it at the same time. How many clones has that some pony down there made?" the Doctor was worrying. Suddenly the rhyme that the voice was saying had stopped, and the Doctor and Derpy could hear thousands of foot steps coming towards them from the hole. "Derpy! I Think we should get back!" the Doctor suggested. Derpy and the Doctor hid behind a hole in the cave behind them. Then to their surprise, thousands upon thousands of baby dragons, also known as Spike came bursting through the ground. All of them were chanting the word "Food" over and over. The Doctor and Derpy just looked in confusion. Suddenly, the Dream lord appeared out from the blue. "Attack of the baby dragons? That's ridiculous, this must be the dream. Lets all jump of the cliff above us and wake back up in the other world, you first!" the Dream Lord smiled. "Oh, be quite, no one want's you hear!" the Doctor shouted. "You're very aggressive today, maybe you need a little sleep." the Dream Lord replied. The Doctor and Derpy dropped to the floor like dominos. They woke back up in the other world with everypony still looking at them, laughing at them because they looked so cute lying together outside a blue box. But it still was embarrassing for the Doctor and Derpy. The Doctor approached a pony. "Excuse me, how long have we been sleeping on the floor?" the Doctor asked. "About five minutes!" the pony giggled. "Right, thank you." the Doctor replied. He trotted back over to Derpy. "We've been asleep for five minutes." the Doctor informed. "Really? But last time we fell asleep, we were gone for hours and were only awake for a five minutes in the other world, so how can we be gone for hours in one world and only be asleep for five minutes in the other?" Derpy asked. "The Dream Lord must be messing with time as well. Come on, we need to get to that smoke cloud, see what dangers are ahead of us here." the Doctor suggested. The Doctor and Derpy decided to not waste any more time they had, they ran towards the everfree forest, towards the giant smoke cloud. They reached the source of it, they found out it was a spaceship. The Doctor opened the spaceship doors to find a group of Slitheen from the planet Raxacoricofallapatorious. "Derpy, we need to get back now. I think we've found the threat in this world." the Doctor suggested. Suddenly, one of the Slitheen woke up and started to chase the Doctor and Derpy. "No, run, run!" the Doctor shouted. "We need to get away from it, we need to hide until we have a chance to fight it!"
Discovering The Weird And Harmful DangersThe Doctor and Derpy luckily vanished out of the slitheen's sight.They hid back in the T.A.R.D.I.S to be safe. Suddenly, the Doctor and Derpy fell asleep and fell to the floor from the tricks of the Dream Lords bird chirping song. They woke back up in the other world on top of each other, still hiding in the cave. Something was strange, the loud voices that they heard from the millions of Spike's that came rushing out of the entrance to the mirror pool was no longer in that location. Instead, it was coming from where they started, back at Ponyville. They could still hear faint screams of the same voices simultaneously saying the word "Food." Derpy turned to the Doctor in worry. "Doctor, do you think that the Spike's have moved to Ponyville?" Derpy asked. "Must have, I'm just wondering what they would do." the Doctor replied. "Why are you worrying about that?" Derpy asked in confusion. "He's only a baby dragon." "Derpy, how scary is the word deadly danger to you?" the Doctor asked. "Very scary, of course, it's in the words them selves, deadly danger." Derpy replied. "So what makes you think that age or size makes any difference?" the Doctor asked again. "Yeah, sorry never mind." Derpy replied, looking down in shame of her stupidity. "You don't need to be so obnoxious about it." Suddenly, the Dream Lord appeared smiling at the Doctor. The Doctor knew the look, he knew that the Dream Lords only reason for appearing again is to tease him, to push his buttons. "Yes, Doctor, don't be so mean. I know you've got two deadly dangers on your hoofs, but that doesn't mean you can talk to your friends like scum. Sometimes I think that you don't treat them as friends, and you treat them as solders to go into your battles and fight in the front lines." the Dream Lord smiled. The Doctor looked at the Dream Lord with a serious look of one hundred percent hate between each other. The Doctor moved along, kept moving as he knew that the Dream Lord was only out to annoy him. "Come on, Derpy! We don't have time for him!" the Doctor shouted, not looking back. Derpy looked back to the Dream Lord and saw he had a massive cheesy smile in his face. She was going to smile back until she realised the tricks he was trying to pull on the Doctor and herself. Derpy followed the Doctor. "So, where are we going?" Derpy asked. "We're going back to Ponyville, to see how exactly the Spike's are dangerous, what chaos have they caused." the Doctor replied. "What chaos do you think they have caused?" Derpy asked. "I don't know, I don't know much on mischievous dragons who clone themselves to terrorise towns." the Doctor laughed. The Doctor and Derpy reached the edge of Ponyville and they where gobsmacked. The mass amounts of damage don't by the huge tilde waves of baby dragons were off the scale insane. Houses destroyed, ponies running around the place, screaming in fear. They will never go near something purple or green without getting a shock ever again. "Do you think they were in search of food?" Derpy asked. "Must be, that was what they were chanting twenty four seven." the Doctor replied. Suddenly, a pack of at least seven Spike's came from the shadows towards an untouched house, still screaming "Food." They went towards the untouched house, and together, they ripped the house apart, the floor, the walls and the roof, nothing was left. "O...K..." Derpy said in confusion. Derpy looked over to her muffin store, which was completely destroyed. A tear grew in Derpy's eye. She looked down in sadness. "D-Derpy, are you ok?" the Doctor asked. "No, I'm not ok, my dream job has been destroyed." Derpy snapped, rage built up inside her and she was about to blow. "I have decided. This is the dream world!" "How do you know?" the Doctor asked. "Because I don't want this, I worked hard to get that job, to live my dream, when I get hold of Twilight, I'm going to scream!" Derpy replied. "We can't do anything about it now, I'm sorry, but still, It's a weird danger but its still a danger, at least we know what the danger is. Now we need to find out what the danger is in the other..." the Doctor stated before he fell to the floor along with Derpy as the birds sang their song. The Doctor and Derpy woke back up in the T.A.R.D.I.S in the other world. "...World. Ah! The Dream Lord switched us again! Any way, it's time to find out what danger the Slitheen represent. I'm guessing it's something to do with destroying the planet and making money out of it. I mainly think this because it's what they're always after." the Doctor pointed out. "What are we going to do?" Derpy asked. "Well, the Slitheen are more hostile than baby, hungry Spike's. It'll be harder to approach them. Get ready, there may be close to death experiences!" the Doctor pointed out. The Doctor and Derpy ran towards the T.A.R.D.I.S door to go find the Slitheen. They ran back towards the everfree forest, where they found the Slitheen and where the smoke cloud was still coming from. The Doctor was worried that Derpy may be harmed, as she may not be able to pay as much attention as before as she had seen her dream job taken away from her by rabid baby dragons.
Raxacoricofallapatorius... Or something like thatThe Doctor and Derpy reached the everfree forest and hid behind a tree, close to the crash sight of the slitheen spaceship. "So what do we do?" Derpy asked. "Well, Slitheen are normally very stupid, they haven't grasped sonic technology yet. They don't know every thing it's capable of, so I can fool them with it." the Doctor replied. "So because some species in the universe haven't discovered sonic technology, that means they're stupid?" Derpy asked sarcastically. "Oh, sorry. I wasn't trying to insult you, just saying it's pretty easy to make." the Doctor replied. "Not exactly, you don't see much technology in Equestria, unlike your universe, those humans use it on an everyday bases." Derpy pointed out. " Sometimes I think Vinyl Scratch is the most technologically advanced pony in Equestria." Derpy laughed. "Yeah, I met her once, her speaker system almost broke my sonic screwdriver, first time that ever happened, she's a strange pony!" the Doctor laughed."Ok, ok. We need to quite down now, the rest of the slitheen are waking up and the other one who chased us is coming back, we can't get caught when we're not ready." The slitheen woke up and had no idea that the Doctor and Derpy were behind the near by tree. The smaller, child slitheen who chased the Doctor and Derpy, spoke first and sounded pretty annoyed with his group, or his family. "Will you get up? Do you realise what you have done?" the young green slitheen snapped. "No, not really, what?" the bigger slitheen asked. He seemed to be the father. "You didn't put the stableizers on, did you? Or we wouldn't of crashed!" the smaller slitheen shouted, he seemed the be the spoiled brat of the family. "It was one little thing he forgot, you don't need to shout at him like that." the other bigger female slitheen replied, she must be the mother of the family. "What the hell do you mean, little thing? Because of him we crashed! And we were seen by two lifeforms on this planet! Intelligent lifeforms! You're just lucky I woke up before they could do anything." the child snapped once more. "What?! Did they do anything? Did they discover anything?" the father said in worry. "Luckily, no. They were just approaching when I saw them, I hunted chased them and attempted to hunt them, hut they got away, the good news is that they got scared and it is a very low chance they'll come back." the child replied in relief. "Which means they didn't find out our plans." "Well, now that were back into consciousness, we best start revising the plan, make sure we get it right." the father suggested. He got a bunch of blue prints out of the ship and lay them out on the ground. "Right, it's a simple plan really, one of our simplest. We have the nuclear bombs, we aim these at every city on the planet, we launch the nuclear bombs and detonate them. We get two benefits in one plan, we wipe out all life on this primitive planet and we turn this planet to nuclear waste to sell, piece by piece." the child explained. Meanwhile, back behind the tree, the Doctor and Derpy were debating what to do to stop the slithers plans to destroy and sell the planet. "Right, Derpy, are you ready?" the Doctor asked. "Ready for what?" Derpy answered. "Just go with it!" the Doctor smiled. He jumped out behind the tree into plain sight. Derpy resisted but the Doctor pulled her out from behind the tree. "Hello! Next time you might want to wiser your plans!" the Doctor laughed. "There! It was them two who I sacred off!" the child panicked. "What do we do?" the father asked. "Leave this to me! I think it's time we knew who is repeatedly interfering with our private, family conversations!" the mother said. She picked up a strange device that the Doctor recognised. It was an ID scanner. "He is identified! He's the Doctor!" the mother shouted. "So you're not so confused to why I'm in this universe then?" the Doctor asked. "A lot of your enemies now know about the rift you left when you came to this universe, some are scared to go though it because they know what happend to the ones who did go though, when ever they tried to invade this planet, you stopped them. The Sontarans, the Cyber men, but we're not scared of you. We are willing to give it a try!" the mother shouted. "Well, now I'm going to stop you!" the Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver. "With this!" the Doctor smiled. The Doctor pointed his sonic screwdriver at the nuclear bombs, he set the bombs countdown to show the timer for the bomb to explode in thirty minutes. But only the count down, not the bomb, so really, the Doctor was fooling the slithers by only setting off the countdown, letting the countdown go to zero and sit back and watch nothing happen. "You fool!" the father shouted. "Everyone in the ship, we're getting out of here!" The mother shouted. The slitheen hopped into their ship and flew away back in the sky. "See, told you, stupid, it was easy to resold the problem they caused, just scare them off!" the Doctor laughed. "Anyway, now to turn this fake countdown off. The Doctor activated his sonic screwdriver to stop the fake countdown, but his screwdriver was giving him different readings. "Oh dear, Derpy, it seems when I attempted to start a fake countdown, I actually started the real countdown, and it seems to be dead locked as soon as it's activated!" the Doctor explained. "W-what do we do?" Derpy asked. "All we can do, choose! Choose a world!" the Doctor replied. "I'll need to look at the other world again, to see which one seems more real." Derpy stated. "We don't have control of switching ourselves between worlds, only the Dream Lord..." the Doctor and Derpy fell to the floor by the sound of birds once again and woke back up in the other world. "...Has control."
Choice"Ah! Ok, the Dream Lord switched us. Here you go, Derpy,one last look at this world and then we can choose which battle to lose." the Doctor stated. "Hang on, we've just got here, but how do I look for clues to see which is real and which is fake? How do I choose a world?" Derpy asked, about to get stressed out. "I don't know, but we need to choose quickly, otherwise we won't have a choice to choose if the nuclear bombs go off in the other world, just look around for clues, look at the dangers and your surroundings." the Doctor suggested. Derpy, stared into space, thinking about everything that happened in both worlds, every single detail. The dangers, the surroundings, and the probability of the danger happening in the real world, just like the Doctor suggested. Suddenly, the Dream Lord appeared without Derpy noticing because she was concentrating. The Dream Lord snook up into Derpy's face, smiling like a creep. "You look like you're thinking very hard, how do you feel? For a dumb dozy pony like you it must be really hard." the Dream Lord laughed. He gave Derpy a shock when he spoke, her hate for him grew. "Leave her alone!" the Doctor demanded, stepping in and stopping the abusive comments. "Oh, yeah, that thing that you do. The big old 'Leave her alone!' speech that you give all the time. Acting like you're a though guy, just because you battled Cyber men, Sontaran's and Dalek's, and win." the Dream Lord said, mocking the Doctor, trying to make him lose his temper. "If I can defeat them, then I can easily defeat you." the Doctor snapped. "But you don't always win, do you? Sometimes they win and sometimes, you die, you regenerate!" the Dream Lord turned to Derpy. "Derpy, has the Doctor told you about regeneration?" the Dream Lord asked. "Yes, of course he has, he can bring himself back to life with regeneration energy." Derpy replied. "Good, at least he's told you something that's true, the Doctor always lies, no matter how good of a friend you are, he has no concept of trust at all." the Dream Lord turned to the Doctor. "Doctor, what reincarnation of yourself are you?" the Dream Lord asked. "The eleventh reincarnation. What has this got to do with anything?" the Doctor replied. "Exactly, the eleventh reincarnation, and a Time Lord can only regenerate twelve times, you are near the end of your life." the Dream Lord turned to Derpy once more. "Better pack your bags, Derpy and move out of the T.A.R.D.I.S, he's only got a few years left until he dies, and if he dies, how will you ever get home to Ponyville?" the Dream Lord asked, doing his best to anger both, Derpy and the Doctor. The Dream Lord spoke again. "But I don't think you'll need to wait that long to move out, Derpy, since he abandons all of his companions in the end anyway." the Dream Lord smirked. "What do you mean 'Abandoned'?" Derpy asked, worried. "Well not all are abandoned. Some are abandoned, some get trapped, some the Doctor leaves behind when he gets bored of the current companion and some die." the Dream Lord explained. "What? D-Doctor, what is he talking about?" Derpy asked. "Has he ever told you about his past companions? Rose Tyler? Trapped in a parallel world. Martha Jones? She was lucky to escape the death the Doctor almost brought her, she only had half her life destroyed. Donna Noble? The Doctor wiped her memory so she wouldn't die. Amy Pond and Rory Williams? Trapped about fifty years into the past. Every companion the famous Doctor has dies, all because he let his guard down for a few seconds." the Dream Lord replied. "It's not always my fault!" the Doctor shouted, loosing his temper. "Doctor, lets just stop this, he's just doing this to slow us down and to irritate us. Just leave him, I've decided on a world." Derpy announced. "Which one? Which reality?" the Doctor asked. "This one, with the rabbit Spikes." Derpy replied. "Ok, that means we'll need to kill ourselves so we are no longer active in this world. Come on!" the Doctor shouted. The Doctor and Derpy ran away from the Dream Lord to find something to make themselves deceased. "What made you think this was the dream world?" the Doctor asked. "You said observe the danger. Killer Spikes? Give me a break! Even if Spike wanted to do that, he wouldn't be capable of doing the damage he did." Derpy laughed. "Oh yeah, that's so simple! Why didn't I think of that?!" the Doctor laughed. "So what are we going to do to deactivate ourselves in this world?" the Doctor asked. "I was thinking the edge of the cliff top in the everfree forest, should be quick and easy. Also, why do you keep saying deceased or deactivate?" Derpy asked. "Just looking for a word that is more pleasant that kill ourselves." the Doctor replied. The Doctor and Derpy ran through the everfree forest and reached the highest peek of the cliff top in the middle of the forest, about one hundred and fifty feet high above ground. They reached the cliff top and were out of breath. Ready to jump, the Doctor looked down and a shiver ran through his body. Derpy turned to the Doctor. "Doctor, I'm nervous, can we jump together?" Derpy asked. "Of course." the Doctor replied. "Ha, feel kind of weird asking you to jump with me to a possible death." Derpy smiled. "Don't worry about that, we would both need to die in the dream world to win anyway. Ok, ready? One, Two, Three!" the Doctor shouted. The Doctor and Derpy jumped together, falling to their death, hoping to die and wake up in the possible real world. Hopefully, Derpy was right.
A Fake Real WorldThe Doctor and Derpy woke up slowly, with their eyes gusting to the light of the sun they were under. They had no idea what just happened, dying in a world and waking up in shock in the other world sometimes has that effect. They waited for their minds to kick in. They looked up to see the Dream Lord, standing next to the nuclear bombs with only thirty seconds left in the countdown. The Dream Lord looked at the Doctor and Derpy, smiling. "So... You chose this world." the Dream Lord said. The Doctor and Derpy awaited an answer from the Dream Lord. "Hmm... Well done, you got it right. And with only thirty seconds left, lucky you." the Dream Lord said sarcastically. The Doctor and Derpy smiled at each other. "Lets turn these nuclear bombs off, before you die." The Dream Lord reached out to the bombs that were about to destroy the entire world and deactivated them. The Dream Lord looked at the Doctor once more. "Well done, Doctor. You have defeated me once again. As before, I shall depart... Farewell." The Dream Lord disappeared for the last time, never appearing in front of the Doctor or Derpy again. "That was a hard one. But at least we won." Derpy smiled. "No. No, we haven't, not yet." the Doctor replied. "Sorry, what? But he's gone now, he said we won!" Derpy pointed out. "Yes. Thank you for pointing that out, Derpy. But remember, I've battled him and his cheap tricks before, I know how he works. Come on, Derpy, lets get back to the T.A.R.D.I.S, and don't worry, we will win, I'll explain in the T.A.R.D.I.S." the Doctor replied. The Doctor and Derpy ran back to the T.A.R.D.I.S as fast as they could, with out stopping. They entered the T.A.R.D.I.S and shut the blue doors. The Doctor trotted towards the T.A.R.D.I.S console. "So, Doctor, why did you want to get here so fast?" Derpy asked. "I thought you said you wanted to get out of the dream world as fas as you could, didn't you?" the Doctor smiled, he knew something that Derpy didn't about the Dream Lord. "But we are. He said we won. Remember?" Derpy asked in huge confusion. "Remember, Derpy. I know his tricks. Let me explain. The Dream Lord has no control over the real world, at all. He was actually giving us a choice between two dreams." the Doctor explained. "But he said we won." Derpy replied. "Yes he did, but did you notice how helpful he was? When we chose this world, he said we won and deactivated the danger, so we wouldn't die. If you die in a dream you wake up in reality, he was saving us in this dream, so we wouldn't wake up in real life. We are still in a dream world. And the more time spent in the dream world is more time spent dreaming in the real world. We end up wasting our lives living in a fake world. That's his trick. Making you live in a fake world, when you don't know it, wasting away in the real world, dreaming." the Doctor explained. "Strange way to kill you." Derpy laughed. "I know, but he's a strange life form." the Doctor replied. "So what are you going to do to wake us up in the real, real world?" Derpy asked. "I'm going to blow up the planet with the T.A.R.D.I.S." the Doctor replied. "Um... OK." Derpy smiled. "Hold on tight!" the Doctor smiled. The Doctor set the levers into place and was ready to press the button to blow up the T.A.R.D.I.S. "Three, Two, One!" the Doctor pressed the button. A huge ball of fire was exploding in the centre of the console and was quickly expanding to the whole T.A.R.D.I.S. The explosion reached the walls of the inside of the time machine and a huge bang was produced that could be heard lightyears away, blowing the planet up with it. The Doctor and Derpy woke up in the actual real world. The Doctor was standing in front of the console and Derpy had just entered the main control room. "Any questions?" the Doctor asked. "Yeah, just one. Who was the Dream Lord?" Derpy asked. "He is a dark version of me. He has done what he did to me to thousands of others before. Some life forms know he's the dark version of me. The Dalek's tried to recruit him one time. But instead, he done what he done to us. Some life forms call him 'The Dark Doctor' or 'The Valeyard.'" the Doctor explained. "But what so dark about you?" Derpy asked. "I'm nine hundred years old, there was bound to be something dark in me." the Doctor replied. Derpy smiled back. "I guess it's time to send you back home now. I've got other ponies to take around time and space, but don't worry, Derpy, you'll always be my number one mare!" the Doctor smiled. "Thank you, Doctor. I guess you're my number one time travelling pony from another universe." Derpy laughed. The T.A.R.D.I.S landed in Ponyville and the Doctor and Derpy walked out and the Doctor locked the doors. "I Feel like having a milkshake." the Doctor said randomly. "Yeah, same. Come on, i'll take you to Sugar Cube Corner, see if Pinkie Pie's got any special flavours on sale today." Derpy smiled.
