A New Doctor

Doctor Whooves avoided every shot that the Daleks fired, coming from everywhere, including the ones aimed from above to the ones in front of him. As he ran the Doctor pulled out his Sonic screwdriver, opening the door leading to the TARDIS.

In his haste the Doctor dove into the TARDIS, but was instead flung towards the wall, impact coming shortly after. Dragging himself up as the door of the TARDIS shut, the Doctor flung himself at the controls. He set it to return to mere moments after he had left. As the Doctor stood there he felt a stir. It was time. A regeneration was coming. The Doctor began to glow a golden light as all went dark.

The Doctor woke to the smell of smoke. Dragging himself up off the ground, he opened the door and stepped out into Ponyville. Unbeknownst to him,he didn’t quite look the same as he had before. At least, that was the case until he got up to his hooves, which were now suddenly white.

The Doctor blinked in confusion, before remembering that he’d just regenerated. Oh, well, usual day in the life of a time lord.

Although, a nagging feeling in his stomach reminded him of the hunger he’d developed after being knocked unconscious from the regeneration. Since he was still a pony, he figured getting some apples in Ponyville square would be an obvious choice for a snack.

After making a purchase of apples, he munched on the fruit. Though, he happened to pass by Twilight’s library, and as he did, the Doctor heard whispering. "She looks so weird?" "What are those glasses she's wearing?" Confused he looked around but found nothing out of the ordinary. As the Doctor passed the bakery he saw Ditzy inside the little bakery. Running inside he grabbed her.

"Oi, Ditzy! It's me! I made it back."

Confused, the mail mare looked at him, "Umm, who are you?"

"It's me! It’s the Doctor," he said.

"Who? The Doctor? I've never heard of such a pony," she responded.

It was then that the Doctor realized. He had landed in Ponyville before he even came here the first time. Guess he had made it to the right place, but at the wrong time. Stepping back he looked up at her.

"Sorry, I was mistaken."

Leaving and heading for Twilight's library again, the Doctor heard the mail mare, "Who was that pony?"

Of course, the Doctor was sad, but someone might recognize him. It was a small world, and a small time. Making his way into the library he called out, "Twilight? Twilight Sparkle?"

A lavender pony walked out of the room. "Yes, that's me."

"Twilight, it's me. The Doctor," he said.

"The Doctor? Um, no, he's in Canterlot, talking to Princess Celestia. That set aside, you are a mare. Not a stallion, so how could you be the Doctor?" she asked, forgetting about his alien biology.

"I am not a mare," he said.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

"YES," the Doctor responded, quite annoyed. Not only had she not believed he was the Doctor but she insisted he was a mare! By Rassilon, no one had ever insinuated such a thing before! Well, not the mare part. As the Doctor stood there fuming he noticed Twilight grab a mirror with magic and levitate it towards him. Curious, the Doctor looked it to it. Before him gazed in astonishment a face, a face he had seen before, a face he knew was not his, but now realized he was this face all along. Right beside him, throughout many adventures this face, his face, had stood alongside him. The Doctor, no, Vinyl Scratch had stood alongside him. SHE had stood alongside him. The Doctor. She had been him all along.

Yet after all this time, he, no, she had failed to notice the change in her voice. Figures, as Vinyl’s voice had always seemed sort of tomboy-ish.

Stunned, the Doctor, no, Vinyl looked up at Twilight. The mare looked back with a smug look. So, Vinyl had been proved wrong, not a first nor the last. Vinyl looked up to Twilight. Walking towards the desk Vinyl picked up grabbed a quill.

Dear Celestia,

Today I learned my name is Vinyl Scratch, I have recently arrived in Ponyville and I should very much like to meet you. I may not be known to you but I would like discuss matters I think will greatly interest you,

Vinyl Scratch.

Turning to the mare he, no, she had just passed Vinyl spoke, "Would you mind sending this to Princess Celestia? I would very much appreciate it." The new pronouns would take her time to to get used to, but she could manage.

"O-of course," said the unicorn, as if this wasn’t new, but also wasn’t quite used to it.

"Also, is there any magic you could teach me, I'm afraid I never got the opportunity to learn," she asked.

The lavender unicorn's eyes shone with happiness. "Oh, yes, yes, yes! Do you want to start with Starswirl's come to life spell? Or levitation, or..." the mare rambled on.

Vinyl smiled lightly. It was going to be a long wait.

After some hours of magic filled studies, Vinyl was getting ready to try her first teleportation spell, when a scroll appeared on the nearby table. Picking it up, Vinyl opened the scroll and read the astonishingly terrible penmanship of someone with magic.

Ms. Scratch,

Of course I will meet you, I always love meeting my ponies, especially new ones. If you would care to ask my dear student, who I assume you've already met, if she will send you hear with a teleportation spell then I will meet you at once,

Princess Celestia

Once again Vinyl turned to Twilight. "Celestia said you can teleport me to Canterlot."

"What?" asked the mare inquisitively, pulling her head out of the book she had been reading.

"I would like you to teleport me to Canterlot at once," she repeated, rather bossily.

"Oh of course," magic flashed from the violet unicorn's horn and Vinyl found herself outside the Celestial hall of Canterlot castle, feeling disoriented from the teleportation.

"Come in dear," came Celestia's melodic voice. Vinyl entered the room, it was nothing she hadn't seen already, after she had been here a hundred times before and would be a hundred times after.

Walking up to Celestia, Vinyl bowed, addressing the Princess directly.

"No need dear, I can tell something troubles you, what is is it?" asked the princess.

"The Doctor," Vinyl said.

"Yes, I know him, but what about him?" prodded the princess gently.

"I have news, news of the Doctor," she said.

"What sort of news dear?"

"Celestia, I am the Doctor," she said.

Celestia was shocked by the abrupt revelation, "What? But how?" asked the diarch.

"I regenerated."

"Are-um, are you alright Doctor?" came the Celestial's voice.

"Other than a strange desire to build a bass cannon I'm fine."

A Doctor Whooves and Vinyl Scratch Story

Epilogue

Vinyl sat tweaking her prototype bass cannon when she heard a familiar noise. A noise as it is said, brings hope to the ears of those who hear it, a sound unique in all the universe, a sound of a TARDIS materializing. Leaving her bass cannon in her house Vinyl Scratch walked out of her house and just moments later bumped into a light brown pony wit an hourglass for cutie mark.

"Sorry about that Miss, it was my fault" came his voice.

Vinyl looked at the pony and smiled. "Not at all Doctor. Not at all."

As Vinyl walked away the light brown pony watched her. This world was new to him, and yet, someone knew who he was. The white mare passed the corner and disappeared from his sights. Still confused, the Doctor walked towards town. In mere moments he ran into the mailmare, who destiny says, he would encounter far more times than this. Helping the poor mare up he apologized profusely and promised to help her with her mail, and asked her name, to which she merely replied Ditzy. The white mare returned to his mind.

"Excuse me, Ditzy?"

"Yes, Doctor?"

"I met a mare just moments before you, and was wondering who she was?"

Being a small town, and the friendliness found in it, he figured Ditzy would know. "What did she look like?"

"White coat. Dark blue mane with light blue streaks, and a music note cutie mark."

"Oh. That's Vinyl. Vinyl Scratch."

Leaving her past self behind, Vinyl rushed to the TARDIS. As she did she could hear the low rumbling sounds of the engine. Smiling she opened the door. Moving to put her hoof on the panel, Vinyl heard the TARDIS engines rumble deeper.

"I wondered where you went," she said, "But now I know. You didn't go anywhere. You've been in the exact same place."

Vinyl walked out and made for the location she first arrived in. As she walked forward the air shimmered and became blue. Smiling Vinyl entered the TARDIS. Flicking the engine switches Vinyl smiled as the TARDIS let out a familiar whir, and was gone.
