//-------------------------------------------------------// Time, Bubbles, and Magic. -by PegasiBubbles- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Flight Practice //-------------------------------------------------------// Flight Practice    Soarin spread his wings as far as they could reach and yawned. "Ughhh, Ditzy...don't you think that it's a bit early to be flying??" Soarin asked, clearly annoyed.       "Nope!!" Ditzy replied, with a smug look on her face. "Besides that, you need to practice or Spitfire will be riding your plot all day".       Soarin's expression changed suddenly.Rudely, he snorted back "She's not all that bad.She's just been....weird about our Gala appearance a while from now..."     Ditzy fluttered up a bit and onto a lower cloud and yelled "If your so good then race me." Even though she knew that she was going to lose against her Wonderbolt best-friend she challenged him, her face more serious than ever.     Soarin said nothing, but instead decided to fly past her and into the "race".     Soon the two pegasi were face to face racing, Ditzy going a bit faster than expected, and Soarin stepped up his game flapping his wings and breaking his own boundaries faster than Pinkie Pie with chocolate.    The tension, however, broke up fast as Ditzy soon saw a blue figure appear faintly in the distance, accompanied by a faint elephant like noise.     Soarin, convinced of victory immediately looked back and said "Too amazed by my speed? I was goin' easy on you, you should have seen the look on your face-"     Soarin's voice was cut off by a smack into a tree.     Coming to a screeching halt, a bewildered Ditzy whispered "....What in Celestia.....?" It became clear that Ditzy however did not seem concerned about his crash.She was more worried about the strange object that now blocked her path.   Inside, she could hear a faint screaming, obviously signs of distress,  and instantly knew what to do. ''I'm coming in!!" She yelled.Before anything else could happen, the door slowly creaked open to reveal a golden glow. Soarin woke up as he began to moan and ache as a consequence for his foolishness.     Once again ignoring Soarin, Ditzy cautiously stepped inside, to something she never expected. //-------------------------------------------------------// Curiouser and Curiouser //-------------------------------------------------------// Curiouser and Curiouser         As the blue wooden door slowly creaked open light washed out of it and the screaming ceased.Ditzy opened the door for the rest of the way, to find herself in aw as the room revealed itself.Inside was an alien like interior, with a control center that shimmered green and blues of all colors.Ditzy watched in awe as a brown earth pony stallion stumbled around it and locked eyes with hers.That gaze lasted no longer then a couple of seconds as he jumped and mumbled "What...am I..?" Jumping around and soon finding himself a mirror he yelled "I'm a equine!No, I'm a pony!" Returning his gaze to the wall eyed mare he said "And your a pegasus! Heheheh! This is so cool!" Turning to Ditzy once again he realized she had a terrified look on her face.\     "L-Listen, buddy....I don't want any trouble.I j-just came to see if you were o-kkay, because of all the s-screaming....."Ditzy barely managed to mumble, still with a petrified look on her face.   "Nonononono! I didn't mean to frighten you! I'm okay, really!Trust me!" The earth pony yelled as he tripped and ran in front of her.    "Oh! Y-your okay? That's great, no, that's reeally great, I'm just gonna go now...." Ditzy said as she backed up, stumbling a couple of times, determined to go find Soarin and get out of there.    "No really you can trust me, just let me explain, but first who are you...?"The stallion pleaded.     "That's what I should be asking!! Who are you?" Ditzy questioned      "Well, If you must know I'm the Doctor.Just the Doctor."He stated.      "So, I call you Doctor...?Just Doctor?" Ditzy replied with one hoof out the door, ready to dash.      "Precisely"A smug look wiped across his face "Now, what would I call you?"     "You would call me Ditzy Doo"That's what.Now, what is this place?    As if on cue, the Doctor trotted over to the console and loudly declared "This is my TARDIS, it stands for Time And Relative Dimensions In Space, and it can travel anywhere in time and space"    "Well I suppose that explains your cutiemark.An Hour-glass.How fitting."Ditzy sarcastically mumbled."You've got quite an ego don't cha?"   "I most certainly do not!! Wait, what is a cutiemark?Do you mean this tattoo on my flank?" The Doctor retorted, slightly annoyed. "A cutiemark is.....wait....shouldn't you know this...?"Ditzy said, but only got a confused look back from The Doctor so she continued."A cutiemark is a symbol that represents someponys talent in sort of a metaphorical way, I guess...."   "I suppose that makes sense.An hourglass for time.What do your.....1..2..3..4...6......7 bubbles stand for...?"The Doctor questioned.    "Fragility and.....clumsiness..." She answered back, feeling a bit embarrassed.     "Oh, that's adorable!!" The Doctor rudely replied back.   Completely forgetting about Soarin, The Doctor showed her around the TARDIS, and even naming her his companion and taking her on a few adventures throughout time and space.This however,was only the beginning. //-------------------------------------------------------// Lunar and Solar //-------------------------------------------------------// Lunar and Solar       Dinky stepped into the TARDIS with her yellow eyes as wide as they could get she ran around the console and managed to stammer "It's a......a......what is is?" The Doctor, who had followed her during her observation sat down next to her.     "It's the TARDIS."The Doctor smugly stated, staring at Dinky."It stands for Time And Relative Dimensions in Space."     "Wow." Dinky replied."Is this some sort of pocket dimension?Like, you know, since its smaller on the outside it can hold another dimension inside of it....like a pocket!"Dinky smiled, obviously pleased with her observation, and continued."My tutor Twilight taught me all about it.She really likes astronomy."   The Doctor just blinked back, not knowing what to say.Finally, he said "That's one way to take out all the fun.You're pretty smart for your age."Even though he was obviously pouting, he still seemed impressed.   Ditzy cut in."It can travel anywhere in Time and Space.Universes, dimensions, alternate realities, you name it!So, where do you want to go muffin?" The Doctor trotted over to the controls."It's your first time, so better make it a good one.   "I want to go....in the past...back so far the Windedos hadn't even attacked to ponies!"Dinky exclaimed   "Alright, hold on!"The Doctor then continued to push various buttons before the TARDIS shook and made its signature sound.    Looking around, Ditzy noticed these weren't regular ponies.These were nothing short of Alicorns.Wings, horns and all.Alicorns soon surrounded the trio as they came in all shapes and sizes.Banners with suns and moons hung in the trees and on houses.     "We must have went all the was back to the Alicorn Utopia"Ditzy said in aw.    "You mean before the Element-Changeling wars?"Dinky asked.    "Must be.Before the alicorns knew of earth ponies, and before Celestia and Luna were born."Ditzy answered.    "Well, then we are going to have to blend in."The Doctor stated.    "And how exactly are we supposed to do that?"Dinky turned to The Doctor.    The Doctor grabbed some leaves and some string and tied them to Dinky's back, making it look like she had wings.Then, he did the same for himself.Moments later he pulled out two flashlights and reshaped them to look like horns, then he continued to tape them to his and Derpy's head. "There.Now, we will blend in."The Doctor proudly said, with a smug look on his face.   "We.Look.So.Ghetto."Ditzy muttered under her breath.   Dinky giggled at her mothers comment, and then proceeded to trot over to a random alicorn civilian.   "Excuse me ma'am?"Dinky asked   The purple and blue alicorn turned to Dinky and said: "Why aren't you just adorable?What do you need?"   "Could you tell who that is?"Dinky pointed to a tall alicorn mare, with a beautiful flowing starry mane and a night sky coat.   "That would be queen Eclipse.She's pregnant with two foals now, along with King Solaris.Its quite beautiful considering the Sun and Moon Tribes have been enemies for quite a while.But you wouldn't know about that.Your just a child."The mare explained. "Lovely story, really is but we have to go."The Doctor pulled Dinky by the tail over to Ditzy around the corner. "What are you doing???What if she found out you were only a unicorn?The Doctor whispered   "Then I would have told her it was a birth defect, and that I'd prefer it if she didn't mention it."Dinky snorted back."Im not just some dumb kid, ya know!I actually think about stuff more then other kids do, so don't underestimate me and trust that I know what I'm doing."Dinky whisper-yelled. "Both of you shut up!Somepony is bound to notice us when we are all talking this loud!"Ditzy broke up the fight."Doctor, just trust Dinky, she wanted to come here as her first adventure, so there is no need to take charge like an ego maniac.Dinky,try not to cause any paradoxes."Ditzy yelled.   "Fine, let's just go look around."The Doctor pouted.   "I wanted to go meet Queen Eclipse! She seems like a nice mare."Dinky added.   "We should go meet King Solaris while we're at it."Ditzy said. "What are we waiting for? Allonzy!"The Doctor yelled. //-------------------------------------------------------// Schoolhouse Secret //-------------------------------------------------------// Schoolhouse Secret       After about six and a half months of traveling with The Doctor, Ditzy had finally warmed up to the strange stallion and his interesting ways....So, as The Doctor ran up to the console and mumbled to himself, Ditzy thought:     I wonder why he has never said a word about himself yet..."The Doctor"...What a strange name anyway.I know that he's an alien and all, but that's still a strange name........    Ditzy awoke out of her daydreaming to find a confused Doctor staring at her from the other side of the TARDIS.    "Ditzy are you okay?You seem....confused....Oh!Is it about the TARDIS?I can tell you all about the TARDIS if you would like!"The Doctor got more exited as he thought of it, he even had a devilish grin on his face.   "Oh no, you don't half to, that was just me uhm...thinking to myself..."Ditzy reassured The Doctor, attempting to avoid a long rant and history of the TARDIS. "Well then, where do you want to go?" The Doctor said, trying to change the subject.   "Ponyville, how bout by Sugarcube corner, and please TRY to get in the right place"Ditzy sarcastically snorted. "Well if you must be THAT picky...."The Doctor grinned, obviously proud of his lame retort. The Doctor started the TARDIS up and traveled to Ponyville, and the two ponies stepped out of the TARDIS. "Hey, where do you go when I drop you off here everyday?"The Doctor questioned.   There he goes again.Asking questions but never answering mine.Ditzy thought to herself, calling back all the moments The Doctor has dodged her questions     Although, as if trying to stay polite she simply said "The Schoolhouse."      "Wait-why do you, "The Doctor was cut off as the mare nervously said    "Hold your horses, what time is is?!"Ditzy frantically asked.    "Um 12:45..."The Doctor answered.   "What! You dropped me off 45 minutes late!!!" Ditzy yelled, not angerly but nervously. "I must have miscalculated"The Doctor shrugged, looking surprised. "That's one hell of a miscalculation!!"Ditzy yelled, this time angry.    The Doctor said nothing but instead watched as his companion flew off without him in obvious search of something.But as he caught up to her she was speaking with a small filly. "Who's this?"The Doctor said "I'm Dinky.Nice to meet you mister!"Said the small purple unicorn filly. "Hi Dinky!"The Doctor said, obviously exited by meeting his first filly unicorn since coming to this world. "I'm going to assume you know my mom?"Dinky told him, looking confused."Otherwise, your just a creep because I certainly don't know you" "What!? This is your daughter?"The Doctor's jaw dropped open."You never told me you had a..-"    Being once again cut off by Ditzy she said "It never crossed the time whenever you wanted to go on an adventure because she was always in school!Calm down, butterbut."Ditzy giggled.   "So...your...married...?"The Doctor questioned, looking around.   "There was an uhm...."Ditzy trailed off.    Dinky knew what she was talking about."My dad disappeared when I was little."Dinky said this, knewing that her mom didn't like talking about it.   "So, whats your name?"Dinky questioned.   "I'm....Time Turner, yep, Time Turner.But you can always call me Doctor."   "I like that one better.Doctor.Sounds cool."Dinky lost herself.    "Sooo.....do you wanna see something cool...?"The Doctor nudged Ditzy, who had the same exited look on her face.Dinky looked at Ditzy for approval, and she nodded.   The Doctor opened the doors to the TARDIS, to show Dinky what was inside.
