Wake Up, Pilot. Wake up.
The Pilot's P.O.V
I felt myself being pulled. Once more, my device has malfunctioned. It seems to be doing that quite a lot, actually.
Well, I would suppose that should happen a lot, you know. Being a traveler has it's downsides, and it's privileges.
I walked among beings of known and unknown origins, my arms crossed and my head nodding at almost everything
that I had passed in approval. I tend to walk around places, well, like I own them. It's a habit. Trust me.
Around the next corner, I spotted a couple of, well what you might say it would be called might be said as: 'Horrid, Revolting, creatures.', but I would say they are most likely the most decent and well-organized beings in the room.
Besides me, of course. I score about a tick above them.
I leaned in to catch a snippet of a conversation between them and some.....purple unicorn mare.
"Have you seen her?"
"Who?"
"The Queen of Years!"
"Who?"
I saw the two....lets call them stallions, judging from their face-shape...Run off in some indistinct direction.
I chuckled, watching the two dash off. It was amusing to see them running off in a hurry. But one thought broke out in my mind.
Why are they in such a hurry?
Regardless, when that purple mare had ran off, I decided to follow her. No use sitting about, now am I.
No, the answer is no.
So, I chased the mare down the halls, making sure I was out of sight.
And looks like luck is on my side, considering the mare was in too much of a rush to notice me.
Lucky day, I suppose.
I listened in, keeping myself hidden under the shadows of various boxes. I listened as the mare reasoned with a blonde-brown maned filly, watching as she moved a cream-colored hoof as she spoke. She looked like the stallions did, but female. And she had green eyes. Cute kid. Or, alien pony, I suppose.
After their short little conversation, which I have to admit, was quite touching to the heart, I walked into the other room.
I pulled out something from my coat pocket. A little pocket watch. I used to use this to hide myself. It came in handy.
Quite often, if you ask me.
I walked up to one of the stands. Might as well try some food here.
"Exotic fruit, ehy?" I muttering. Like...Uhm...Something sugar-y..
Ah, well. All in all it was delicious.ed to myself. "Might as well give it a try..." I placed the watch onto the counter, but my eyes lingered upon the watch for a few moments before I gratefully took the cart of fruit. They were blue, a glowing-like shade about them.
I sank my teeth into the fruit, smiling after my first bite. Sweet, but sour-tasting. Like something sugar-y...
Well, it was good, to sum it up. Very good. Delicious, even.
It'd been a very long hour, and I had found some items worth trading in my pockets.
An old necklace, a silver coin, the lot of treasures from my adventures. Most of the items I usually buy,
but on occasions I go and find something interesting. I traded most of them on...well....
Those blue fruits from earlier. Oi, they were good! Like, really good! Well, despite the fact that most ponies,
other-worldly beings, and animals wouldn't normally like these fruits, they were quite delightful to eat!
Alright, fine. Maybe I have a problem.
Anyways...
I arose from my seat, no, my comfortable seat, and walked out of the room. I had my leftover fruit packed into my saddlebags, mind you. I'm not that irresponsible! As I was saying, I began to walk out of the room,and saw many beings entering a large entrance.
But what really caught my eye, oh what I really noticed the most, was that the unicorn from before, accompanied by a grayish stallion, were entering the gateway with quick steps. I followed, gaining myself a seat.
A break in the filly's song was what hocked the audience the most. Nearing the end, the child had broken into a state of speechlessness. Most seemed sad, the others, shocked, and the rest, in pure awe. The filly had been grasped in a field of energy,
and the mare and the stallion dashed forward, shouting. Before I had the chance to get up and assist them, they had run off.
What a help they'll be.
In a flash, the mare and the filly were back. Nopony acted as if this was abnormal. They all just sat back like it was a show.
I had the urge to yell at them, knock some sense into their inconsiderate minds, ect. But I just sat quietly, watching as the ball of blazing fire in the sky grew ever wider, looking as if it was sucking the energy out of something.
I heard singing. A great, beautiful song. One of hope and power, one of wisdom and cheer. And It was beautiful.
I decided to join in. It felt natural.
I let myself flow with the words, my head swaying to the wonderful song.
My eyes closed, and I embraced the melodic tune.
The song ended. I was unreasonably happy.
I stopped singing, and I felt my usually dormant frown, curl into a small, peaceful smile.
I should do things like this more often. It feels.....
"Brilliant..." I said softly, feeling my gaze soften. My soft, orange wings shifted in a sort of....breeze.
It felt good. Oh so very, very good.
I felt a hoof rest on my shoulder, and I turned my head, the peaceful smile still upon my face.
It was the gray stallion.
"Oh, hello." I whispered. I hadn't gained my voice back yet. The stallion looked at me, smiling.
"Hello, Pilot." I didn't ask how he knew my name. I just blew a strand of my red-brown hair out of my eyes,
smiling.
"Did you enjoy the song?" I heard him say.
"It was brilliant, sir. Inspiring, even." I said, my dark blue eyes sparkling.
"Hold onto that inspiration, Pilot. You need it." He said.
"I will, sir." I said, sighing. "I will."
He turned to go, but I had one more thing to say.
"Sir!"
He turned.
"Who are you?" I said, tilting my head.
"I'm the Doctor." I heard him say. And I smiled.
"Good day to you," I said, smiling softly. "Doctor."
"And to you, Pilot."

Oh, and this was technically my P.O.V, considering The Pilot would be me, other then the fact I am not a time-lord, I have never met the Doctor, I rarely travel for anything. and I don't own any of her items. Well, I do have headphones and a coat, but yeah. That's besides the point.

Doctor Who Belongs to BBC.
And yeah, that would be my reaction to seeing the Doctor after that song.
I don't freak out much. -_-
