Chapter 1: The meeting

The peacefulness and stillness of the planet of the Eye of Orion was just beautiful. It was a still, quiet place, covered in ruins, grass and mist and there was hardly a sound except a wheezing, groaning noise that grew in volume. This was accompanied by a soft blue glow, which gave way to a familiar blue box with the words “Police Public Call Box” marked on the top. The doors opened inwards and a brown coated stallion wearing a red tie stepped out.

He was the Doctor.

“Well, ladies” he said with a flourish “welcome to the Eye of Orion!”

The brown stallion stepped aside, allowing more ponies to step out.

The first was a light purple unicorn with a dark sapphire blue mane and tail, streaked with violet and pink, her name was Twilight Sparkle. She was followed by two Pegasus ponies: the first one was butter yellow with a pink drooping mane and tail, her name was Fluttershy, the other was bright blue with a rainbow coloured mane and tail and wearing dark-tinted sun shades and her name was Rainbow Dash. They were followed by another unicorn, this one coloured white with a well-curled violet mane and tail and she was wearing an elegant sun hat and her name was Rarity.

They were followed by two Earth Ponies. The first one was coloured orange with a blonde mane and tail tied back and a cowboy hat on her head, her name was Applejack.

The other earth pony was coloured bright bubblegum pink with a frizzy magenta mane and tail and her name was Pinkie Pie.

The first to speak was Twilight Sparkle, the dark sapphire blue pony.

“It’s so peaceful and beautiful here” she said, turning to the Doctor and taking in her surroundings.

“For some the Eye of Orion is the most tranquil place in the universe” the Doctor replied with a faraway look in his eyes.

“I came here when I was 813 years old, I was a different pony back then”

“It’s marvellous here, I feel so calm and relaxed darling” Rarity said, settling down under a nearby tree, admiring the beautiful scene before her.                                                                                                          “It’s the high bombardment of positive ions” the Doctor replied.

“It’s like Equestria after a thunder storm” Fluttershy whispered.

“Same cause and reason” the Doctor said, smiling at Fluttershy.

“Can’t we stay here?” Rainbow Dash asked innocently.

The Doctor turned to Rainbow Dash, his smile widened “why not? We could all do with a rest for a while”.                                                                                                                                                                                 “That sounds like party!” Pinkie Pie said eagerly in her high-pitched and bubbly voice.

“Here, here partner” Applejack said in her heavy southern twang, pulling her hat down over her eyes, “I need a holiday from all the hard work I’ve been doing in ponyville”.                                                                                                                   Just as Applejack finished her sentence she, the Doctor and the rest, heard the same wheezing, groaning noise that the TARDIS had made when they had landed and another blue police box, almost identical to the Doctor’s, appeared.

“Doctor you’re not fooling around with the TARDIS are you?” asked Twilight,

“No, I didn’t do anything” the Doctor said, hurt at Twilight’s comment.

Then the Doctor looked like he had just remembered something:

“Oh of course, this is where I come in” he said.

Twilight looked confused “what do you mean ‘where you come in’?”

As Twilight finished what she was saying the doors of the other police box opened and a beige coloured stallion stepped out. He was wearing a 1980s cricket jacket and hat. The only thing that looked out of place on his clothes was the stick of celery stuck to his jacket collar.                                                                                                  He was followed by a female earth pony and a male unicorn. The earth pony had a light brown coat and scarlet mane and tail, she was wearing a purple top with a fur coat over it.                                         The male unicorn had a sky blue coat with a ginger mane and tail, he was wearing a dark blue suit with a dark purple tie.                                                                                                                                            It was then that the newcomers noticed the Doctor, Twilight and her friends.                                              “Hey Doc” the earth pony said “you said that there was no life on the Eye of Orion”.                                  “There isn’t” the pony in the cricket jacket and hat said, a look of confusion on his face.                                                                                     Twilight’s Doctor stepped up to the newcomer and embraced him.                                                                “You know, I’ve often wished I was you again” he said, like the newcomer was his relative.                                                                                    “Steady on old boy” the newcomer said when the Doctor let go of him, “and do you mind....” he continued “telling me who you are?”.                                                                                                                “Well I’m, well you” the Doctor explained.                                                                                                                           The newcomer looked sceptical, “like Alice I try to believe three important things before breakfast” he said                                                                                                                                                                                    “I’m really you” Twilight’s Doctor said, trying to convince the newcomer.                                                        The newcomer looked the Doctor over, “do I really turn out like that?” he said,                                                                                                  “Yep” the Doctor said.                                                                                                                                              From behind him Twilight cleared her throat “are you going to introduce me and my friends to these ponies?” she asked.                                                                                                                                                      “Oh of course. Twilight let me introduce you and your friends to me” the Doctor said.                                                                                                                                                                           Twilight looked confused “what do you mean ‘you’?” she asked                                                                      “well you see miss….” the other Doctor stopped short,                                                                                                                                           “Twilight sparkle” Twilight said.                                                                                                                              “Well you see Twilight, I am his past self” the other Doctor said pointing at Twilight’s Doctor.                        “You’re his past?” Twilight said trying to get her head round what the other Doctor had said.                                       “So he is you, before you met me and my friends?” she said finally.                                                           “That’s right” both Doctors said at the same time.                                                                                                                                                          “Who are these ponies you’re with?” Twilight asked the other Doctor.                                                               “Oh I’m Tegan Jovanka and that’s Vislor Turlough” the scarlet earth pony said, gesturing to the male unicorn. She spoke with an Australian accent.                                                                                                       They both held out their hooves, Twilight shook them.                                                                                   “It’s nice to meet you both. I’m Twilight Sparkle, and that’s Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rarity” she said, introducing Tegan and Turlough to her friends.                                 “Nice to meet you and your friends Twilight” Tegan said.                                                                                       “I love that dashing suit of yours, Mr. Vislor” Rarity said, admiring Turlough’s suit.                                                                                                                     “Just call me Turlough. Miss Rarity was it?” Turlough said,                                                                                “That’s right, you can call me Rarity if you want darling” Rarity said flattered by Turlough calling her Miss.

Chapter 2: The quest begins

From faraway evil eyes watched all the Doctors on a monitor screen.                                                                                                   The eyes belonged to a sinister looking earth pony who sat on a throne.                                                                                                 The pony’s face was hidden behind a black hood that almost blended in with the darkness of his surroundings.                             Somewhere behind the hooded pony a door clanked open and another pony entered the room.                                                            This pony was different: his body was entirely made of metal. His face was completely expressionless.                                                                                                           “All the Doctors incarnations are together my lord…” the metal pony said, he spoke with a grinding mechanical voice,                               “and the cybermite has retrieved the information from the TARDIS”.                                                                                                           An evil grin spread across the hooded pony’s face. “Excellent”, he turned to another monitor screen.                                                           “Only two of the Doctors incarnations remain unaccounted for” the metal pony added,                                                                                 “no matter” the hooded pony said,                                                                                                                                                “Scan the current Doctor’s memories and send the message” he said.                                                                                                        A reply came through the monitor “thy will be done Supreme One”.                                                                                                                     The voice spoke with almost the same cold mechanicalness as the metal pony the screen went blank.                                                               The hooded pony turned back to the screen with all the Doctors on it.

Back on the Eye of Orion Martha’s Doctor called all the Doctors and their friends together.                                                                         “So why are we all together? Why are we all here?” he asked hoping that some pony had an answer.                                                        Ace’s Doctor stepped forward, “some force has to be altering all our paths in the time stream and breaking the first law of time”.

He was interrupted by Twilight’s Doctor who suddenly gave a wince of pain and collapsed on the ground.                                             Twilight ran over to him, “Is he OK?” she asked one of the other Doctors.                                                                                                “He’s ok, otherwise the rest of us wouldn’t be here, just a psychic trauma” Martha’s Doctor said helping Twilight’s Doctor to his hooves. Every pony calmed down not knowing Martha’s Doctor had no idea what had happen.                                                              Then from nowhere a voice came. “Ah, there you are Doctors, at last. My search has finally paid off.”                                                    Every pony turned to where the voice had come from, to see a stallion dressed all in white.                                                                                                                                                 Twilight could tell he wasn’t really there because he flickered. When the white stallion saw that he had every pony’s attention he continued: “Will you hear me? It is a matter of some urgency.”                                                                                                                   All the Doctors nodded seeing that they didn’t have much choice.

The white stallion continued: “the universe is in dire peril, the Master is back and he is after the segments of the key of time. He is rallying all your enemies to help him scour the universe to find the segments”.                                                                                                                                                              Twilight had no idea what the key of time was. She reminded herself to ask her Doctor about it.                                                             The white stallion continued: “The Master is also looking for the Hoof of Omega; if he finds both the key and the Hoof then everything is lost, the Time War is lost”. Twilight looked over at her Doctor when the white stallion mentioned the Time War.                                Twilight’s Doctors face showed a mixture of regret and grief.                                                                                                                   Then she noticed Rose’s, Martha’s and Clara’s Doctors shared her Doctor’s facial expression.                                                                                                                                                                     The white stallion continued: “Only you Doctors, only you can hold back the darkness that The Master will inflict upon the universe”.                                                                                                                       The white stallion turned to Jo’s and Grace’s Doctors: “Your 3rd and 8th selves will set their Tardises for the planet Vortis”.                                                                                                                                                  He turned to the other Doctors: “your 2nd and 5th selves will set their Tardises for the planet Spirdon”, and to the other Doctors: “your 4th and 10th selves will set their Tardises for the planet Telos”, and to Susan’s and Twilight’s Doctors “your 1st and 12th selves will set their Tardises for the planet Kemble” and to Peri’s and Clara’s Doctors “your 6th and 11th selves will set their Tardises for the planet Aridius”.                                                                                                                                                                             The white stallion then turned to Ace’s Doctor and Rose’s Doctor, “you will head for the burial place of Omega, the Time Lord stellar engineer, to retrieve the Hoof of Omega”. The white stallion turned back to all the remaining Doctors,                                                       “good luck Doctors, for the entire universes’ sake” the white stallion said before his image faded.                                                        There was a long silence. Then Twilight’s Doctor broke the silence, “so now we know why we are all here” he said,                               looking at Martha’s Doctor with an ‘I’m smarter then you’ look on his face.                                                                               Twilight interrupted her Doctors gloating, “Who was that stallion and how did he know you?” she asked.                                             “That…” Twilight’s Doctor said “was the White Guardian, he represents all the order and good in the universe”.                                     Twilight continued, “And what is the Key of Time and what is the Hoof of Omega?” Twilight’s Doctor smiled at Twilight curiosity.                                                                                                       “The Key of Time is a very powerful object. It levels the pitch between order and chaos. But it is split into six equal segments which are scattered throughout the universe; each segment is hidden and camouflaged…” Twilight’s Doctor paused to catch his breath then he went on. “And the Hoof of Omega is a very powerful stellar manipulator device created by a Time Lord called Omega”.                 This was a lot of information for Twilight to take in. But given what she and her friends had seen with her Doctor it was easy to understand.                                                                                                                                                                                    “Do you mind if me and my friends go with your other selves to find the segments?” Twilight asked her Doctor.                                                                                                                                                                          “Yes, but be careful” Twilight’s Doctor said, with a smile on his face.                                                                                                      “Don’t worry old chap, I’ll look after Miss Sparkle” Jo’s Doctor said, giving Twilight’s a reassuring smile.                                             Rainbow Dash and Rarity trotted off to put their items back in Twilight’s Doctor Tardis when they got back.                                                                                                                                                                  All the Doctors and their companions all piled back into their respectful Tardises.                                                                                Twilight followed Grace’s Doctor into his Tardis, Rainbow Dash followed Tegan’s and Turlough’s Doctor into his Tardis and Rarity followed Martha’s Doctor into his Tardis.                                                                                                                                         Fluttershy followed Clara’s Doctor into his Tardis, Pinkie pie followed Sarah’s Doctor into his Tardis and Applejack followed Jo’s Doctor into his tardis.

Back in the dark chamber the hooded pony watched all the Doctors get back into their Tardises.                                                                   The voice from earlier came through one of the monitor screens,                                                                                                                                                “The Doctors have done as you predicted Supreme One”.                                                                                                                                                            The hooded pony smiled, “Oh course, they have, the Doctor is so predictable”.                                                                                         The hooded pony turned to another monitor screen,                                                                                                                  “Commander Kaagh are your troops ready?”                                                                                                                                         A voice came back through the monitor, “They are ready and hungry for battle”.                                                                                                             “Remember Commander…” the hooded pony continued, “Your troops are not to kill the Doctors, just to slow them down”.                                                                                                                                       Commander Kaagh’s voice came back through the monitor, “By the might of Sontar we will do what we can”. The screen went blank. The hooded pony turned to another monitor, “Supreme Dalek, are your units ready?”                                                                         A grinding machine voice came back through the monitor, “the army is ready”.                                                                                        “As I told Kaagh…” the hooded pony continued, “your army is to only slow the Doctors down”.                                                                        “I obey”, the Supreme Daleks voice replied and the screen went blank.                                                                                                       The hooded pony turned to another monitor screen, “Cyber-leader, are your cyber-units ready?”                                                                A voice came back through the monitor, “correct the cyber-units are ready”                                                                                “Remember, your units are not to convert the Doctors and their friend’s so just make finding the key segments harder for them”.                                                                                                                                          The Cyber-leader’s voice came back through the monitor, “I obey”.                                                                                                            The hooded pony turned to one last monitor screen, “Activate the time scoop now!”                                                                               The mechanical voice from earlier replied, “At once Supreme One” the screen went blank.                                                                         The hooded pony turned back to the screen which showed the planet Vortis.                                                                                    Back inside Grace’s Doctor’s tardis Twilight gazed around the vastness of Grace’s Doctor’s Tardis control room.                                                                                                                                                                  “This is so beautiful” Twilight said gazing around the vast room.                                                                                                           “I’m glad you like it Twilight” Grace’s Doctor said, who was busy with Grace at the much larger wooden panelled control console.                                                                                                                                                           “The library is off to the left” he continued, waving his hoof at an alcove containing a massive book case off to the left of the console.                                                                                                                   Twilight’s eyes nearly popped out of her head at the size of the book shelves lining one whole side of the control room. In a second Twilight had pulled a copy of ‘The Time traveller’s guide to planets’ off one of the shelves, settling herself on a comfortable looking armchair and starting to read the book while she was doing so.                                                                                                                                        Grace’s Doctor was putting in the co-ordinates for planet Vortis. After the course had been plotted, he pulled a couple of levers and switches causing the central column to begin to rise and fall and the familiar wheezing and groaning sound could be heard that told Twilight that they had taken off.

The planet Vortis, once barren and lifeless, was now a lush and beautiful paradise filled with green trees and bathed in golden sunlight. Both Jo’s and Grace’s Doctor’s tardises materialised almost at the same time and after the Doctors had checked their Tardis scanners they both exited their machines.                                                                                                                                      “I see Vortis has returned to what is once was” Jo’s Doctor said, taking in the beauty of his surroundings.                                               “Why haven’t you ever taken me here Doctor?” Grace asked her Doctor “you know, the thought never occurred Grace” Grace’s Doctor said, “From what I’ve read about this planet…” Twilight said, looking at the beauty of Vortis,                                                              “It was created by the two gods of light as their student science experiment”.                                                                                                                                 Applejack looked around. “All this was created by some space gods as their science experiment?” she was hardly able to believe what Twilight had said. “Stay on track…” Jo’s Doctor interrupted, “we’re not on holiday we’re here to find the key segment”.                       Then they heard the sound of thundering feet and a herd of black creatures resembling giant ants thundered by.                                                                                                                                                            “What were those things?” Applejack asked looking after the creatures.                                                                                                 “Those were Zarbis, they’re no smarter than cattle,” Jo’s Doctor explained.                                                                                          Then there was a fluttering of wings and a creature resembling a giant butterfly landed in front of the ponies.                                       Twilight gazed in wonder at the creature. It was covered in black and yellow fur and its huge wings flowed behind it like a cape.                                                                                                             “We, the Menoptera, welcome you to Vortis” the creature spoke with a kind soft voice.                                                                                   “It’s nice to see Vortis has recovered from the last time I was here” Jo’s Doctor said, smiling at the Menoptera.                                                                                                                                                                  The Menoptera looked confused, “My people don’t recall you ever being on Vortis”.                                                                                        Jo’s Doctor smiled over at his other self, “that’s because I’ve changed my appearance since I was last here. I’m the Doctor”.                                                                                                                                               The Menoptera smiled, “It is nice to see you again Doctor.”                                                                                                                            He turned to the other Doctor “and you are?” he asked.                                                                                                                   Grace’s Doctor smiled “I’m the Doctor”.                                                                                                                                                The Menoptera looked taken aback, “how are there two you?” Grace’s Doctor explained.                                                                                                                                            The Menoptera turned to the rest of the ponies, “these must be your companions?”                                                                           Twilight stepped towards the Menoptera, holding out her hoof.                                                                                                            “That’s right I’m Twilight sparkle, that’s Jo and that’s Grace.”                                                                                                                      The Menoptera shook Twilight’s hoof, “it is good to meet you Twilight, I’m Techa of the Menoptera”.                                                                          Twilight smiled at Techa “and this is my friend Applejack” she said, introducing Techa to her friend.                                                            “Nice to meet you, partner” Applejack said, raising her hat to the Menoptera.                                                                                           Jo’s Doctor turned to the Menoptera “Me and my friends are looking for a Key of Time segment,                                                                        Have you or your people seen anything out of the ordinary on Vortis?”                                                                                                    Techa thought for a moment, “The only thing that I and my people have seen that is strange was the great jewel.” Both the Doctors looked interested. “Tell us more about this great jewel, Techa” Grace’s Doctor said.                                                                      Techa looked honoured to tell the Doctors, “It was two years after you helped my people to defeat the Animus.                                            The jewel fell from the sky and it brought happiness and order to Vortis and freed the Zarbi from the Animus’s control.”                                                                                                                                       Jo’s Doctor looked deep in thought, “Techa can you show us where this great jewel is?” he asked finally.                                                                                                                                                                               “My people took the jewel and stored it in the great temple”                                                                                                                   “Can you take us to this temple?” Jo’s Doctor asked.                                                                                                                                  “It would be my honour Doctors” Techa said, and with a flourish of his wings Techa took to skies.                                                               The Doctors, Jo, Grace, Twilight and Applejack could just make him out hovering just above trees, pointing in westerly direction.

Elsewhere on the icy planet of Telos, both Sarah’s and Martha’s Doctor’s Tardises materialised almost at the same time. In the 4th Tardis, Sarah’s Doctor pulled a lever on the control console.     “Let’s see what’s outside” Sarah’s Doctor said, as a section of one panel on the wall slid away to reveal a monitor screen. The screen flickered on to reveal the image of the planet Telos outside the Tardis.                                                                                                                                                                           “Look’s cold out there” Sarah’s Doctor said looking at the snow blowing outside.                                                                                     He turned to Sarah- Jane and Pinkie pie, “you two better wrap up” he said.                                                                                                Sarah turned to Pinkie, “I’ll show you where the wardrobe is, Pinkie” she said in a friendly tone.                                                                                                Sarah turned to K-9, “stay with the Doctor, K-9” she said,                                                                                                          “understood mistress” he said.                                                                                                                                                        With that Pinkie and Sarah trotted off through one of the many door branching off the control room.                                                      Sarah trotted along a long corridor with Pinkie Pie bouncing along next to her.                                                                                      At the end of the corridor was a white door which lead into a room lined with rows of clothes racks.                                                       Pinkie choose a long scarf much like the one that Sarah’s Doctor had on, but this one was coloured scarlet and purple.                                                                        Along with the scarf Pinkie also choose a pink snow coat. While she was doing this Sarah had chosen a dark brown snow coat much like the one Pinkie had on. Once they were done they rejoined Sarah’s Doctor and K-9 in the main control room,                                                                                                            “right here we came” Sarah’s Doctor.                                                                                                                                           Meanwhile in Martha’s Doctor’s Tardis Rarity had finished gazing around the coral incrusted six pillared control room,                               “this place is absolutely beautiful” she said.                                                                                                                                     “I’m glad you like it Rarity” Martha’s Doctor said, pleased that no one was making fun of his Tardis control room “also…” he continued “out of all my future selves friends I’ve met you seem the most mature”,                                                                                   “You don’t say, darling” Rarity replied “well, I must admit there’s no surprise there. My friends do tend to act a bit barbaric and a bit immature I, on the other hoof, conduct myself like a proper lady” Rarity finished.                                                                           Martha’s Doctor turned to computer screen attached to the console it showed the same image that Sarah’s Doctor had shown,                                                                                      “You should put something warm on” he said,                                                                                                                                            “I will escort you to the wardrobe Miss Rarity” Jack said,                                                                                                                        “Oh captain” Rarity said, flattered at Jack’s offer,                                                                                                                                  “You two mind flirting outside?” Martha’s Doctor said, a bit annoyed at Jack’s behaviour,                                                                              “I was just offering to take her to the wardrobe” Jack said, a bit bewildered,                                                                                               “I call that flirting” Martha’s Doctor retorted,                                                                                                                                      “Anyway I would like it very much if you would show me where the wardrobe is captain” Rarity said, trying to lift Jack’s feelings.                                                                                                                                                “Alright then and please call me Jack” Jack said feeling better.                                                                                                             With that he, Martha and Rarity trotted off out of the control room. In a little while they returned, Rarity had put on a purple snow coat, almost the same colour as her mane, with a hood to protect it from the wind.                                                                            Martha had put on a woolly snow coat and Jack had on leather gloves.                                                                                      When they were already Rarity saw Jack pick up a weapon-like device from an old pilot’s chair that stood by the console.                                                                                                                                              “What’s that for?” Rarity asked, a bit unsure about what the device was,                                                                                                “In case we run into trouble” Jack said, giving her a reassuring wink,                                                                                                    “right then, where all ready” Martha’s Doctor said he turned to face the Tardis doors, “right allons-y” he said in an adventurous tune, Rarity looked confused,                                                                                                                                                              “Pardon me, darling” she said,                                                                                                                                                           “Its french for ‘let’s go” Martha’s Doctor said.

Once they were all ready, both the Doctors and their friends all exited their machines into the howling wind and the swirling snow of the planet Telos.                                                                                                                                                                                 “So what are we looking for?” Rarity shouted over the howl of the wind.                                                                                                                                                “Well we should start looking for a temple or underground cave or cavern” Sarah’s Doctor shouted back, “well what about that temple over there” Pinkie said, pointing at the outline of an old temple off in the distance, “that’s a start” Martha’s Doctor said, sounding chuffed at Pinkie’s guess and all the ponies trotted off towards the outline of the temple.

Chapter 3: Some unexpected company

Back on Vortis the two Doctors, Twilight, Jo and Grace were still following Techa to the temple. Suddenly, something falling from the sky resembling a meteor caught Jo’s Doctor’s attention. The object crashed some distance from the group,                                       “great balls of fire!” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                                  “What was that?” Twilight asked, looking to where the object had crashed.                                                                                                                   Techa landed alongside the group, “it is not like anything me or my people have ever seen” he said.                                                                                                                                                               “Well let’s investigate”, Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                              “I agree” Grace’s Doctor said.                                                                                                                                                        When the group reached the place where the object had crashed, they found that the object was some kind of spaceship.                                 It had made a smoking crater in the ground where it had crashed. Now that it wasn’t on fire Twilight noticed that the ship was a metal sliver coloured and was sphere shaped. Then a door almost camouflaged in the metal sphere opened and a powerful helmeted humanoid figure stepped out. He was covered in steel blue battle armour; he was followed by an identical group of figures.                           Jo’s Doctor recognized the figures instantly, “Sontarans” he said, in a flat voice.                                                                                     What followed the helmeted figures surprised both the Doctors as a figure, no, a machine this time, with a cuboid shaped body and a sphere shaped head marched out of the ship. Protruding from the sides and top of its head were red spikes.                                        Two rectangular compartments were marked on the machine’s chest and the machine’s legs were block shaped.                                    Apart from the red spikes on the head the rest of the machine was coloured black and grey.                                                                    The first machine was followed by a group of identical machines.                                                                                                       Grace’s Doctor recognized the Sontaran’s allies, “the Quarks?!” he said, surprised.                                                                                       All the ponies and Techa looked confused, the Doctors both explained about the Quarks and Sontarans.                                                    How the Sontarans were a war clone race from the planet Sontar and how the Quarks are rebel robotic servants from the Dominators Empire. After they had finished explaining both the ponies and Techa looked horrified,                                                                                                                   “My people are a peaceful race. With the Sontarans and Quarks weaponry…” his voice begin to shake,                                                     “my people will be massacred” Jo’s Doctor gave Techa a look of reassuring, “we’ll save your people Techa” he said.                                     He turned back to where the group Sontarans and Quarks had formed, to listen to what they were talking about.                                      “Both ours and the Quark troops are ready, Commander Strom” one of the battle armour clad figures was saying,                                            “very good field major Kaarsh” the figure Kaarsh had called Storm said.                                                                                                  He turn to one of the Quarks, “your troops are to fan out and find either Doctor or his friends” he said.                                                      The Quark spoke in a high pitched voice, “We will seek out the one known the Doctor” the Quark said.                                                  Once both Quarks and Sontarans had their orders they all moved off. The Doctors, Techa and the others got out sight,                                                 “So the Master must have sent the Sontarans and the Quarks here to slow us down” Grace’s Doctor said, after some thought.            “We must continue to the temple before they know where we are” Jo’s Doctor said, the group continued on their way.

Then a bright flash of light caught the group’s attention, “more Sontarans?” Jo asked her Doctor,                                                                         “I don’t think so Jo” Jo’s Doctor said, looking thoughtful, all the ponies and Techa rushed to the place where the flash of light had come from. When they all reached the place they were all surprised to see two female Unicorn ponies: the first one was coloured mint green with a pale light greyish cyan mane with white highlights, the second Unicorn was coloured light cornflower blue with a moderate blue mane with light Persian bluish grey stripes in it.                                                                                                                                                                    “Are they ok?” Twilight asked, not sure if the two Unicorns were conscious,                                                                                                “I’ll check” Grace said, stepping forward and placing her hoof lightly on both the Unicorns necks to check their pulses.                                                                                                                                                “They’re both breathing but they both seem unconscious” she told Twilight.                                                                                         “When will they come around?” Twilight asked. Before Grace could answer the mint green Unicorn groaned, shook her head and opened her eyes. The first thing she saw were the two Doctors, Twilight, Jo and Grace,                                                                                                                                                  “Hello there, my dear” Jo’s Doctor said, trying not to frighten the Unicorn.                                                                                              The Unicorn struggled to her hooves confused and unsure of whether the group of ponies were hostile or not.                                                                                                                                 “Who are you ponies?” she asked, her voice shaking with fear.                                                                                                             Grace’s Doctor stepped towards the Unicorn, “we don’t want to hurt you, Miss” he said, trying to create a calm atmosphere.                                                                                                                                       “How can I trust you?” the Unicorn asked, still a bit scared.                                                                                                                “Trust me, I’m the Doctor” Grace’s Doctor said, with a reassuring look.                                                                                                      The Unicorn seemed to recognise the Doctors name,                                                                                                                                   “You’re the Doctor? You don’t look anything like the Doctor I know…” the Unicorn said, looking at Grace’s Doctor with a look of puzzlement and surprise, “my Doctor looks a lot different to you” she went on.                                                                                                                                                                         Both the Doctors exchanged looks, “well me and my good friend here…” Grace’s Doctor said, looking over at Jo’s Doctor,                                                                                                                                                      “….are your Doctor before he met you and your friend” Jo’s Doctor finished, trying to make the explanation as simple as possible.                                                                                                                          “And by the way what is your name, Miss?” he added,                                                                                                                      “Oh…” the Unicorn said, nearly forgetting herself “my name’s Lyra, Lyra heartstrings”,                                                                         “That’s a very beautiful name for a unicorn like yourself” Grace’s Doctor said, and he went on to introduce Lyra to Twilight, Jo, Grace and his other self. Lyra was still a bit confused about their being two Doctors and why they both looked different to the Doctor she and her friend knew. But Twilight filled Lyra in on some of the details, like how the Doctors were on a mission for the White Guardian to stop an old evil. It wasn’t long before the other Unicorn coughed and opened her eyes. Lyra helped her friend to her hooves,                    “who are these ponies Lyra?” she asked, when she caught sight of the Doctors and their friends.                                                                                                                                                                          “Those two stallions are the Doctor, Colgate” Lyra said, introducing her friend to the two Doctors.                                                            The Unicorn Lyra had called Colgate, looked at both the Doctors with the same look that Lyra had given both of them and said exactly the same thing Lyra had said. “Let’s just say he is one of him” Lyra said pointing at both the Doctors.                                       Colgate seemed to understand. “But more to the point…” Jo’s Doctor said “how did you and Colgate get here, Lyra?”

“Well me and Colgate were in Ponyville getting something to eat,” Lyra explained, “When we saw a strange shape in the sky.                    We thought it might be a cloud. But it swooped down and scooped us up and I don’t remember anything until we got here” she finished.

“This all sounds strangely familiar to me” Grace’s Doctor muttered to Jo’s Doctor.                                                                                          “It seems as though the Master is using some form of time scoop to transport both Miss Lyra and Miss Colgate from Ponyville to Vortis” Jo’s Doctor replied. Then both Lyra and Colgate caught sight of Techa who had been hanging back,                                                                                                           “And what in Celestia’s name are you?” Lyra asked. Both she and Colgate were a bit shocked at Techa’s insect-like appearance. Techa stepped forward, “I’m a Menoptera, one of the species which inhabits this planet called Vortis” he said, trying his best not to scare Lyra or Colgate. But while Techa was telling Lyra and Colgate about where they were, Jo’s Doctor noticed a cuboid shaped outline moving nearby. Without any warning a Quark soldier drone burst forth from the bushes. The Quark seemed to be interested in both the Doctors. It took no notice of Twilight, Jo, Grace, Lyra, Colgate or Techa.                                                                                      “You two are the ones known as the Doctor” the drone spoke in its high pitched voice. Both the Doctors didn’t seem surprised by the Quark knowing who they were, “It’s been a long time since me or my other selves have dealt with you lot or your Dominator masters for that matter”, Grace’s Doctor said. The two rectangular compartments on the Quark’s chest unfolded. Twilight guessed that the rectangular compartments were the Quarks weapons. Twilight looked around for something to distract it and she saw a small rock laying a little distance from her. Twilight’s horn glowed light, brilliant, raspberry as she used her magic to pick up the small rock. Trying not to make any noise, Twilight threw the rock at the Quark. The drone had taken aim and was about to fire when the rock hit it, knocking the Quark onto its side and its shot went wide. “That was some very good magic, Miss Sparkle” Jo’s Doctor said. He started to examine the downed Quark drone,                                                                                                                                                                   “Let’s see what we can get out of this one,” he continued.                                                                                                                    Twilight saw him take a small tube shaped device out of one of his pockets in his jacket.                                                                    Twilight assumed that it was his sonic screwdriver. She also noticed that Jo’s Doctor’s Screwdriver looked nothing like her Doctor’s screwdriver. This screwdriver had black and yellow stripes and a red trim on top, but it made the same noise and that was good enough for her. Grace’s Doctor joined Jo’s Doctor taking a similar device out of his coat pocket.                                                                This screwdriver was silver with a brass trim ring on the lower grip. On the top was a silver ring with a red bullet shape in the centre. Both the Doctors worked with both screwdrivers to deactivate the Quark and remove its head.                                                            “Shouldn’t we just leave it here?” Applejack asked one of the Doctors.                                                                                               “Normally yes, but we have to stop it sending a distress signal to the other Quarks and the Sontarans  and we have to find where it was sent form, Miss Applejack” Grace’s Doctor explained.                                                                                                                          “I think we should continue on our way to the temple before we attract any more attention” Jo’s Doctor said,                                       “agreed” Grace’s Doctor nodded, he turned to the rest of the group, “we need to keep on moving to the temple” he said, all the ponies and Techa nodded, “Techa I think it might be a good idea for you to stay on the ground” Jo’s Doctor, chipped in and without another word all the ponies and the Menoptera ran off towards where the temple was located.

Back on the planet Telos, the Doctors and their friends were nearing the temple Pinkie had pointed out.                                                         The outline was still blurry but as they got nearer it slowly became clearer.                                                                                          Suddenly a ding noise caught the group’s attention, “where’s that coming from?” Rarity asked,                                                              Martha’s Doctor revealed the source of the ding noise.                                                                                                                               It was a box shaped device about the size of a portable radio, which it was, with a phone receiver on top.                                                   He pulled it out of one of the pockets in his coat, putting the phone receiver to his ear,                                                                                                                                     “what is that weird device and how did that fit in your coat pocket?” Rarity asked,                                                                                                                                                                 “They’re bigger on the inside” Martha’s Doctor replied “and this is my Timey-Wimey detector, it starts making that noise in the presents of temporal anomalies” he went on,                                                                                                                                          “that’s such funny a name ‘Timey-Wimey’” Pinkie pie said, finding the detectors riming name funny.                                                      Martha’s Doctor pointed the detector in a westerly direction.                                                                                                                         The ding noise grew stronger, the other members of the group followed him.                                                                                             After they had been walking for ages the detector stopped making a ding noise,                                                                                            “It never did this before” Martha’s Doctor’s said, giving the detector a good shake to make sure it was working properly.                                                                                                              He was just about to put the detector back into his coat when a sudden ball of light appeared in front of them.                                        When it ceased, two female ponies, one Earth pony the other a Unicorn both lay unconscious in the blowing snow.                                The Earth pony was coloured goldish grey with a dark grey mane and tail with a lighter tint in it she was wearing a pink bow-tie with a white collar. The Unicorn was coloured yellowish white with a moderate, cobalt blue mane and tail with brilliant, cyan stripes in it she was wearing, wearing dark purple shades.                                                                                                                         “By Celestia are OK?” Martha asked, a bit concerned in the two ponies were alright Martha’s Doctor took a stethoscope out of his coat and passed it to Martha. Martha put the stethoscope on and put on the both the ponies chest to check their heart bets,                         “it’s alright their both alive” she said, breathing a sigh a relief Martha handed the stethoscope back to her Doctor,                                       “they should be waking any time soon” she told the others, just as Martha finished what she was saying the goldish grey Earth Pony chocked, spluttered and opened her eyes. At she didn’t notices the cold or the snow but then she noticed that she was on another planet in the middle of a snow then she noticed Doctors and their friends,                                                                                                                                                         “who are ponies? And why are me and Vinyl here?” she said referring to the yellowish white Unicorn.                                                  Martha’s Doctor stepped towards the Earth Pony, “look we don’t know how you got here maybe you tell us”, the grey Earth Pony thought from a bit, “well me and Vinyl were on our way to pick up a package from the post office in Ponyville were nearing it when we saw a strange thing hanging in the sky…” Martha’s Doctor stopped the grey Earth pony,                                                                “what’s was this ‘strange thing’ you saw? Miss…, actually what is your name?” he asked,                                                                      “Oh my names Octavia” the grey Earth Pony said, “and to answer your other question about this ‘strange thing’ me and Vinyl both saw it was like swirling pyramid but see-through it scoop us up and dropped us here” Octavia finished, both Sarah’s and Martha’s Doctors thought over what Octavia had said, “right then” Martha’s Doctor after some thought and discussion with his other self,                                       “Sine’s you answered my question I’ll answer yours Octavia, I am the Doctor and I love your bow tie by the way” he continued handing Octavia his coat and taking flask of hot chocolate out of it when he saw how cold she was getting,                                                                                                                               “you look nothing like the Doctor me and Vinyl know our Doctor wears a green tie not a blue suit” Octavia replied,                                       “that’s because I’m your Doctor before he met you and your friend” Martha’s Doctor explained, trying to keep the explanation short and he also explained how there were two of him and introduced Octavia to his and his other selves’ companions.                                     Captain Jack did his whole ‘hello and who are you’ thing much to Martha’s Doctor annoyance.                                                                               After they had all met properly the yellowish white Unicorn croft and open her eyes. At first she didn’t notice the Doctors or their companions, “What happened Octy” she blubbed through a disorientated haze,                                                                                                                                               “We’re not in Ponyville anymore Vinyl” Octavia answered.                                                                                                                       The yellowish white Unicorn shook her head and looked around. Then she noticed the Doctors and their companions,                               “ok, who are you ponies” she said reacting the same way Octavia did.                                                                                                   Octavia quickly explained to Vinyl who the two stallions were and who the female Earth ponies were,                                                        “so you the Doc before me and Octy met him” Vinyl said trying to get her head around what had been said,                                                                                                                                                                         “spot on Miss…” Martha’s Doctor said he stopped short,                                                                                                                                                                                 “DJ Pon-3 or Vinyl Scratch is the name don't wear in them out” Vinyl said,                                                                                               just then K-9 approached the two ponies, “High traces of Kronon energy detected” he said,                                                                                                  “Cool robot dog, Doc” Vinyl said gazing at K-9 in amazement,                                                                                                             “but…” she added turning to the Doctors “why does he look so beaten up?”,                                                                                                                “hey…” Martha’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                              “…in the year 5000 he was cutting edge” Sarah’s Doctor finished, he saw that Vinyl was getting cold he passed her his scarf,                                                                                                                                                 “so you and Vinyl should stick with us” Martha’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                “we don’t have a choice just like our Doctor” Octavia said,                                                                                                                    “you may not look like our Doctor but you’re ok in my books” Vinyl said and with that the Doctors and their Friends continued on their way to the temple.

Back in the dark chamber the hooded pony gazed at his monitor screens which told him all the progress of the Doctors,                      “Supreme one, is there news?” the grinding metal voice from earlier said, the hooded pony looked at his monitor quickly,                                                                                                    “no, no news of any of the segments being recovered, the Doctors are taking their time” he replied. From another dark room a pony like figure in a Dalek style wheelchair slowly moved out of the darkness of his surroundings,                                                                                                                                         “I mean, have the Doctors found out that they have been tricked?” the pony in the wheelchair said,                                                              “no the Doctors have no idea I’m playing a game with them” the hooded pony replied,                                                                    “Fascinating, If I had not helped resurrect you, I could almost mistake that tone for one of victory.                                                             Beware your pride Supreme one” the pony in the wheelchair said amused at the hooded pony’s obliviousness.                                               He started to drum his three metal clawed fingers on his wheelchair,                                                                                                           “the Doctor is helping me conquer the universe” the hooded pony said with a bit of frustration,                                                                        “And yet, Morbius is uneasy” the pony in the wheelchair flicked a switch on the control panel set into the base of his Dalek wheelchair and on the far side of the chamber a light came on illuminating a truly hideous creature. It had the body and left front leg and back legs of a pony where its right hoof had been a giant crab-like pincer was now attached. But its head was truly horrifying it looked a bit like a gold fish bowl the top of which had shattered.                                                                                                          The bowl was attached to the neck, the brain which throbbed was placed in the centre of the bowl with various coloured wires attached to it two eye storks were attached to the gold fish bowl like head of the creature.                                                         The creature was chained to a metal seat.                                                                                                                                                 The hooded pony gazed at the creature though his monitor, “that abomination is insane” he said,                                                             “show respect” the wheelchair pony said,                                                                                                                                       “Without Morbius neither you or your plan would be possible, and he speaks only the truth” he finished.                                               The creature spoke, its voice sounding a bit like the pony in the wheelchair but a bit higher,                                                                     “The Doctor, the destroyer, the killer of our race, he will bring about the everlasting darkness, master of us all” the creature laughed maniacally.

Chapter 4: The butterfly and the statute

Back on Vortis the Doctors and ponies and Techa were about to enter the temple. Then they noticed that the temple was under guard one Quark and Sontaran trooper blocked the entrance to it. The ponies were just close enough to hear, “Commander Storm my sensors report that one of our troops have been deactivated” the Quark guard said, Commander Storm gave a short laugh, “I admire these ponies, the bravery of idiots is bravery nonetheless” he said. The Doctors and the ponies got back out sight, “we’ll never get past both of them” Twilight said, “What we need is a distraction” Jo’s Doctor said, after some thought.

Then Jo’s Doctor noticed herd of Zarbi nearby, “Miss Applejack care to cause a little noise to distract those two?” he asked,                                                                          “I can do that lickety spilt Doctor” Applejack replied, “Be careful AJ” Twilight said,                                                                                                               “I will Twi” Applejack replied and with that she jumped onto the back of one of the Zarbis which reared up in surprise,

“if you have trouble with the Sontarans just hit the back of their neck” Grace’s Doctor said,

“Gotha Doctor” Applejack replied, she dug her back leg into the Zarbis side causing it and most of the herb to scuttle off with Applejack riding the lead Zarbi off away from the temple. The Quark and Sontaran looked towards where the sound of the Zarbi had come from, “my sensors are picking up some disturbance to the south west of us” the Quark said,                                                         “We must investigate” Commander Storm replied.                                                                                                                                When both the Quark and Sontaran had left their posts both the Doctors, Jo, Grace and Twilight sneaked into the temple.                       When they got inside Applejack caught up with them she said she had let the Zarbi lead both the guards away from the temple. Inside the temple a long passage stretched away from the ponies stone statues stood on stands along the walls of the passage.                                                                                                                        “The segment must be at the end of the passage” Jo’s Doctor said, and he, Grace’s Doctor and their friends started off down the passage, “how strange…” Twilight thought looking closely at the statues, “These don’t look like Menoptera”,                                                                                                              “you alright Twilight?” Grace’s Doctor asked,                                                                                                                                        “Yes I’m fine” Twilight replied, brushing away her concern about the statues.                                                                                        She followed the rest of the ponies when she had turned away from the statue it turned its head to look after the ponies.                   Oblivious to the danger around them the Doctors and their friends reached the end of the passage.                                                                The great jewel stood on a pedestal the jewel like its name suggested was a heat shaped diamond shining with some kind of green energy, “is this the segment then?” asked Applejack,                                                                                                                               “the sonic screwdriver seems to think so” Grace’s Doctor said, checking his screwdriver,                                                                                “I think I should just check to make sure” Jo’s Doctor interjected,                                                                                                         “Be my guest” Grace’s Doctor said.                                                                                                                                                   Jo’s Doctor touched his screwdriver to the great heat jewel and in a flash white the jewel turn into the first key of time segment,                  “so the jewel was just an illusion” Techa said a bit surprised,                                                                                                                  “so it would seem” Twilight said.                                                                                                                                                           Then there was a sound of scraping stone on the floor behind them.                                                                                                       The ponies and Techa turned to the source of the noise and what Twilight saw made her fell like her blood had turned to ice.                             The statues that had stood at the sides of the passage had somehow got off their stands and now stood inches away from them their faces were twisted in a horrifying snarl.                                                                                                                                      Twilight recognized them immediately, “Weeping Pegasi” she said,                                                                                                      “weeping what?” Jo’s Doctor asked,                                                                                                                                                 “Look at them, don’t blink” Twilight replied, “they can’t move if you’re looking at them” she explained quickly                                                                                                                                                      “who blinks…” said Lyra “…I’m too scared to blink”                                                                                                                                      “you heard Miss Sparkle” Jo’s Doctor said “keep looking at them” he continued.                                                                                 Grace’s Doctor, Twilight, Applejack, Lyra, Colgate, Jo, Grace and Techa all locked their eyes on the Pegasi,                                                      “if these statue things have been here all this time” Grace said, without turning to her Doctor,                                                                    “why haven’t they attacked until now?” she finished,                                                                                                                                 “I was just thinking that to” Jo chipped in                                                                                                                                          “because the great jewel must have been projecting same sort force keeping them back” Grace’s Doctor replied,                                                                                                                                                              “and now we’ve uncovered the segment there is no field preventing them from attacking us” Jo’s Doctor finished grabbing the segment and putting it in one of his pockets, “I think we should leave now” he said,                                                                          “agreed” Grace’s Doctor nodded, “all we to do is keep looking at them” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                         “easier said than done Doctor” Twilight said, remembering the first time she had encountered the Weeping Pegasi.                                    Still keeping their eyes on the Pegasi the ponies and Techa moved slowly but quickly around them.                                                     When they had got around them they made for the temple entrance still keeping their eyes on the statues but just as they reached the entrance the ponies heard a shout they turned to see Techa a Weeping Pegasi had its hoof around Techa’s neck,                                          “you’ve got to leave me Doctor” he said, “this creature can’t let me go, not while your all looking at it” he continued,                                                                                                                                                         “Can’t you squeeze out?” Grace’s Doctor asked,                                                                                                                                    “No it’s too tight” Techa replied,                                                                                                                                                             “We can’t just leave him” Colgate said, franticly,                                                                                                                                      “You have to leave me” Techa repeated,                                                                                                                                              “but you’ll die” Grace’s Doctor said, using his sonic screwdriver to try and somehow loosen the Pegasi’s grip,                                                “I’ll die in the knowledge that my courage did not desert at the end” Techa replied, tears forming in his eyes,                                                                                                                                                 “I wish I’d known you better Techa” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                   “I think Doctor you know at my best” Techa said smiling sadly,                                                                                                        “ready?” Grace’s Doctor asked,                                                                                                                                                      “Contented” Techa said, closing his eyes.                                                                                                                                                     The ponies turned away and ran from the temple entrance as they got to it                                                                                           Twilight heard the sound of bone breaking and she know what had happen to Techa,                                                                              “we need to stop the Pegasi from getting out of the temple” Twilight said,                                                                                             “don’t worry about that Miss Sparkle” Jo’s Doctor said.                                                                                                                             Both he and Grace’s Doctor pointed their sonic screwdrivers at the top of the temple’s entrance and with a single zap of both sonics the temple’s entrance collapsed,                                                                                                                                                        “halt!” a voice shouted, the ponies turned to see a platoon of both Sontaran and Quark troopers, they all had their weapons pointing at the ponies, “Commander Storm I presume” Grace’s Doctor said,                                                                                          “we will take the key segment” Field Major Kaarsh said stepping in front of the Commander,                                                                 “you’re a long way from the war aren’t you Kaarsh” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                     “what war?” Lyra asked,                                                                                                                                                                        “A war between the Sontarans and the Rutans” Grace’s Doctor explained,                                                                                                      “It’s been raging far out in the stars”, Jo’s Doctor finished                                                                                                                                                                                    “The master will help us crush the Rutans” Commander Storm said triumphantly.                                                                                      Then from behind the ponies there was a that sounded like stone hitting rock,                                                                                         “the Pegasi are trying to break out” Twilight said,                                                                                                                                “hand over the segment and we will let you live” Field Major Kaarsh order,                                                                                             “absolutely not” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                                         “take aim” Commander Storm barked                                                                                                                                          Twilight’s horn glowed raspberry coloured as she prepared a teleportation spell and before both Sontarans or Quarks could fire their weapons all the ponies disappeared in a flash of light. The ponies reappeared in the clearing where the two Tardises had landed,                                                            “That was amazing Miss Sparkle!” Grace’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                          “I hope you do that again” Twilight said rubbing her horn,                                                                                                                    “We’d better get going before the Sontarans and Quarks know where we went” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                              “Just one thing to do first” Grace’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                 “Right” said Jo’s Doctor and both Grace’s and Jo’s Doctors closed their eyes.                                                                                  “Contact” they both said. After some time the Doctors opened their eyes,                                                                                                    “Alright let’s go” Grace’s Doctor said and with that the Doctors and their friends dashed into their respected Tardises.                                 Lyra and Colgate followed Jo’s Doctor, Jo and Applejack into Jo’s Doctors Tardis.                                                                                      “This Tardis is a lot different than our Doctor’s” Lyra said, gazing around Jo’s Doctor’s Tardis control room.                                                                                                                                                                             “It could look a bit more colourful” Colgate said,                                                                                                                                       “I have tried to redesign the control room” Jo’s Doctor said who was busy at the console with the Quark robot’s head,                                “but that’s the thing about computers, no imagination” he sighed.

Chapter 5: A miner detour

When the Doctor had wired the head into the console he threw switch, the Tardis rocked violently and the words                          ‘transmission analysed signal anomaly’ flashed up on a wall mounted monitor screen.                                                                      “What’s happening?” Jo asked,                                                                                                                                                       “There appears to be something wrong with this signal” Doctor replied, “It looks like it’s being bounced around the galaxy to obscure authority” he continued. The monitor screen changed to show what looked like a giant plug hole in space,                                                  “and that would be?” Applejack asked,                                                                                                                                            “That looks like a space portal” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                            “Maybe we should just leave it” Lyra suggested,                                                                                                                                   “I wonder what’s on the other side” Jo’s Doctor wondered aloud                                                                                                                      “I don’t know if that’s a good idea” Colgate said trying to persuade Jo’s Doctor,                                                                                           “even if we go through this portal what are we going to do when we get to the other side?” Colgate asked                                                                                                                                                                                    “I’ll do what I’ve always done Miss Colgate” Jo’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                “And that is?” Colgate asked,                                                                                                                                                          “Improvise” he replied and with that Jo’s Doctor pressed a button on the console and the Tardis rocked violently again.                           Alarms went off, Jo’s Doctor dashed around the console pressing buttons and pulling levers.                                                                                                                                                             “Hold tight everypony” he shouted, “the coordinates are constantly changing”.                                                                                         Jo’s Doctor pulled one last lever and the Tardis stopped rocking about.                                                                                              “We’ve arrived” Jo’s Doctor said.                                                                                                                                                    “Where are we?” Applejack asked a little shaken from the trip.                                                                                                                       “Let’s find out” Jo’s Doctor replied he flicked a switch and the monitor screen from earlier flickered on to show nothing but empty whiteness.                                                                                                                                                                                        “And when are we?” Lyra asked.                                                                                                                                                              Jo’s Doctor flicked another switch and some text flashed up on the screen,                                                                                          “Well according to the scanner,” Jo’s Doctor said, “we’re nowhere and no time”.                                                                                           Jo, Lyra, Colgate and Applejack all looked taken aback, “what do you mean No Time?” Lyra asked.                                                                            “According to the Tardis where ever we are doesn’t exist” Jo’s Doctor explained.                                                                                           “Is it safe to go outside?” Colgate asked.                                                                                                                                            “The scanner says that the air is breathable” Jo’s Doctor said he pressed the door control and he, Jo, Applejack, Lyra and Colgate followed him.

Back in Grace’s Tardis Twilight, Grace and Grace’s Doctor had watched on their Tardis scanner as Jo’s Doctor’s Tardis go into the space portal, “we’ve got to go after them” Twilight said franticly dashing around the Tardis console trying to operate the controls                                                                                                                              “You know I don’t know we came” Grace’s Doctor said he pointed to the scanner which showed the space portal disappearing,                                                                                                                                     “What are we going to do Doctor” Grace asked,                                                                                                                                 “There is only one thing to do Grace” Grace’s Doctor said                                                                                                                 “what’s that?” Grace asked                                                                                                                                                                “we need to head to the planet Telos and regroup with my other selves” Grace’s Doctor said                                                                            “I hope Applejack is alright” Twilight said,                                                                                                                                       “She’ll be alright if she’s with my third self” Grace’s Doctor said reassuringly he was about to input the course for Telos when some ghostly ponies appeared one of them looked just like Twilight’s Doctor except he was wearing a green tie he was companied by an orange coloured unicorn pony with a ginger mane and tail he had some technician goggles around his neck.

Next to him was a grey coloured stallion next to him was a light blue unicorn with an even lighter blue mane and tail.                                Next to her stood a pony that also looked like Twilight’s Doctor except he was wearing a red bow tie and some what looked like gold and brown coloured technician goggles on his head.                                                                                                                    Next to him stood a darker grey Pegasus he also looked a lot like Twilight’s Doctor except for his wings and his was an even darker grey. Next to him stood a pony who also looked like Twilight’s Doctor except the pony was a mare.                                                              She was wearing a pink bowtie alongside her were some ponies that looked just like Twilight and her friends except they were stallions                                                                                                                                                                           “Who are these ghost’s Doctor?” Grace asked her Doctor                                                                                                                       “I’ve no idea Grace” Grace’s Doctor replied he turned to Twilight “do you know these ghost Twilight?” he asked                                                                                                                                                             “only three of them” Twilight replied pointing at the pony wearing the green tie and the light blue unicorn, the female pony in the pink bowtie and stallion version of her                                                                                                                                                                              “Hello can you hear us?” the grey stallion asked Grace’s Doctor, Grace and Twilight all nodded,                                                                                                                                                                                  “Right” the stallion with the goggles began but before he could continue he was interrupted by the stallion in the green tie,                                                                                                                                                 “Hello Twilight remember me?” he said in a childish voice                                                                                                                 “Please stop bothering me” the stallion in with the goggles said giving the stallion in the green tie a look,                                                                                                                                                                                       “You know I don’t care about being destroyed” the darker grey Pegasus stallion said depressingly                                                      “What do you mean being destroyed?” Grace’s Doctor asked                                                                                                            “Well as my other was trying to say” the lighter grey stallion said                                                                                                          “you and the others must break off your search for the key to time segments” he said,                                                                                                      “Why?” Grace’s Doctor asked                                                                                                                                              “Because it’s a…” was all the stallion in the green tie could say before he and the other stallions and their companions faded                                                                                                                                               “Could you explain who those ponies were Twilight?” Grace’s Doctor asked Twilight                                                                                     “Ok, but you might find it hard to believe” Twilight replied                                                                                                                      “after all that’s happen today I believe anything” Grace’ Doctor said raising an eyebrow                                                                           “Me too” Grace said                                                                                                                                                                        “Alright” Twilight said and she explained to Grace and Grace’s Doctor who the ghost ponies were after she’d finished Grace’s Doctor looked a bit confused as did Grace                                                                                                                                                        “I told you it would hard to believe” Twilight said                                                                                                                                   “So those ghost were other version of your Doctor or me from parallel and other universes” Grace’s Doctor said trying to get his head what Twilight had told him                                                                                                                                                                         “And those other ponies with them were there companions” Grace concluded also finding it hard to take on what she had just been told                                                                                                                                                                                          “Whatever the Master is going to do with the Key to Time and The Hoof of Omega it is effecting other universe and parallel universe” Grace’s Doctor said                                                                                                                                                                            “What are we going to do?” Grace asked                                                                                                                                             “We need to help those parallel Doctors first” Grace’s Doctor said                                                                                                             “How?” Twilight asked                                                                                                                                                                  “Well I could use the Tardis to lock onto their Tardises and transport them and companions here” Grace’s Doctor explained                                                                                                                                                  “Right let’s get to it” Grace said she and Twilight took up positions around the control console,                                                     “Activating the Eye of Harmony” Grace’s Doctor said pulling a lever                                                                                                   “Activating the Space Time telegraph system” Grace said pressing a switch                                                                                                   “and with a little magic boost” Twilight said touching her horn to the console.                                                                                           The Tardis groaned and the console sparked and fizzed,                                                                                                                              “I think we got a lock” Grace’s Doctor cried over the din “come on old girl” he said giving the console a small whack and again the ghost of the parallel Doctors and their companion slowly began to appear again,                                                                                                                                                               “Almost there!” Grace cried                                                                                                                                                               “Just a little more you can do it old girl” Grace’s Doctor said                                                                                                                    the parallel Doctors had begun to become clearer                                                                                                                              “Come on old girl!” Grace’s Doctor said,                                                                                                                                             the parallel Doctors and their companions had by now fully materialized inside Grace’s Doctors Tardis                                                                                                                                                                                       “Ok that’s it” Grace’s Doctor said Grace and Twilight both let go of the console and turned towards the parallel Doctors and their friends, “I thought we were dead” the light grey Doctor said                                                                                                                     “you know I really don’t care about dying” the darker grey stallion said in his depressing voice                                                                  “Oh brighten up will you?” the stallion in the green tie said                                                                                                                    “Will you all stop arguing!” the female version of the Doctor, ginger and light blue Unicorns and the stallion versions of Twilight and her friends shouted at the parallel Doctors they all fell silent even Grace, Twilight and Grace’s Doctor                                                                                                                                    “I wasn’t even arguing” the stallion in with the goggles said                                                                                                                           “I don’t care” the female Doctor said “the entire universe is on the brink of destruction and you two are arguing like little children” she finished                                                                                                                                                                                         “wait, brink of destruction?!” Grace’s Doctor chipped in                                                                                                                     “yes, brink of destruction” the female Doctor said “but before we go any further we should introduce ourselves” she continued.                                                                                                                                                   The stallion in the green tie stepped forward “you already know we are the Doctor” he said                                                                              “but to avoid confusion you can call me Time Turner and this is my companion Tick Tock” he continued                                             introducing the ginger coloured unicorn to Grace, Twilight and Grace’s Doctor                                                                                                                                                                                         “salutations and greetings” Tick Tock said                                                                                                                                                 The light grey stallion stepped forward “you can called me Hourglass and this is Trixie” he said introducing himself and his companions to the others.                                                                                                                                                                      The mare version of Twilight’s Doctor was the next to introduce herself, “I’m the professor” she said introducing herself and her companions the stallion versions of Twilight and her friends Dusk Shine, Rainbow Blitz, Applejack, Elusive, Flutterscotch, Bubble Berry,                                                                                                                                                                                               “Dusk, that’s your name?” Grace asked,                                                                                                                               “Yeah Dusk Shine” Dusk said “I’m guessing you’re Grace”                                                                                                                 “Yes Grace Holloway” Grace replied                                                                                                                                                    “This control room look’s a little ostentatious if you ask me” Elusive said gazing around                                                                               “I inherited it” Grace’s Doctor retorted                                                                                                                                                    “Oh really, who from?, Hoity Toity” Elusive asked indignantly                                                                                                            “Anyway” the Doctor in the red bow tie and gold and brown coloured technician goggles interrupted                                                               “getting back to what me and my good selves were trying to tell you earlier” he continued                                                                      “You must stop the hunt of the segments” Hourglass said                                                                                                                  “”Why?, the White Guardian told us…” Grace’s Doctor began                                                                                                                  “That wasn’t the White Guardian you idiot” the darker grey Pegasi stallion, said                                                                                                  “Well there is no need to be rude” Grace’s Doctor said                                                                                                                            “Ok, you can call me Clockwise” the Doctor in the red bow tie and gold and brown coloured technician goggles said                                                                                                                                                “Just call me Discord” the darker grey Pegasi stallion said
