"So, what do we do with the Doctor?" Aria asked, folding her arms over her chest.

"We can't kill him." Starlight replied, rubbing her chin. The two girls were standing on the stations bridge, over looking the Earth below.

Aria narrowed her eyes. "Why not?"

Starlight frowned. "I do a lot of things, killing isn't one of them."

"Why?" Aria asked.

"I believe everyone should be equal," Starlight explained, "I don't want to kill anyone."

"What if they try to get in your way?"

"Then, they must be...disposed of." Starlight confirmed, "But, only as a last resort."

"Alright, but how do you intend to turn everyone on this planet equal?" Aria asked.

"The signal dish on this station is powerful enough to submerge any special talent to anyone on the planet, making them equal." Starlight said, leaning on a console. "I've already modified the dish emitter to send a suppressant wave, limiting, of not completely eliminating their talents. Everyone will be equal."

"Except us." Aria said, walking over to Starlight.

"Except us." Starlight confirmed. "After all, we're the only ones who can control this station, if we're equal, we can't control the station."

"Very true." Aria's appearance was similar to that of Starlight's but she didn't act much alike. Starlight knew this more than Aria. And Starlight didn't care much for Aria, and knew exactly what was going to happen.

"Sorry, am I interrupting anything?" A voice said, causing the two girls to jump back in shock. The Doctor was standing there, folding his hands.

Aria withdrew the blaster from the holster on her belt, and pointed it at the Doctor. "How did you escape?"

"Oh, please," the Doctor said, sitting down in a nearby chair, "you're threats aren't going to work, you know that don't you? Besides, I have a feeling you're a terrible shot."

"Oh, really?" Aria asked, and raised the blaster slightly, and pulled the trigger.

The fez flew off the Doctor's head, into a nearby corner. "HEY!!!" The Doctor shouted, as he quickly stood up, running to the fez. About an eighth of it had been burned off, the edges singed. "Why is it every time I get one of these it's blown up?" He asked quietly.

He stood up, and slowly walked toward the purple haired girls. "So you have the master plan to make everyone on the planet equal, but I have a feeling you don't necessarily agree on that plan."

Starlight chuckled briefly. "What gives you that thought?"

"The creepy talk, or the fact that you're in a space station with a radar dish threatening to change every human on Earth, take your pick." The Doctor replied. "Besides, Aria here doesn't likely share your ideals."

"What do you mean by that?" Starlight asked.

"Oh, the simple message we tried to convey to Canterlot High the last time we were there." A deep feminine voice shouted, as Adagio Dazzle stepped out the shadows. "What was it again? Something like 'we don't have to be one in the same thing?'"

Starlight turned to face Aria. "What?"

"Be quiet, Adagio!" Aria shouted, pointing her blaster at Adagio now, moving it away from the Doctor. She turned back to Starlight. "I've changed, I'm not the same person I was!"

"You haven't changed at all!" A new voice shouted. Aria turned her head, looking at the newly arrived Sunset Shimmer. "You think you've changed?! I know a l lot about change, Aria, and you, have not changed!"

"Don't listen to them!" Aria shouted.

"When someone typically tells you not to listen, it normally means their telling the truth." The Doctor interrupted.

"You know me, you trust me, so believe me know!" Aria said.

"QUIET!!!" Starlight shouted, clenching her fists. "I've had enough of your lies!!!" She lunged at Aria, causing them both to fall over the railing, falling on consoles, which exploded in a fury of sparks, and flame.

"Come on!" The Doctor shouted, gathering Adagio and Sunset. He dialed a number on the phone he was holding. "Applejack, is the TARDIS ready?"

"Yep!" Applejack said back, who was inside the TARDIS with Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Sonata Dusk.

"Good, pull the big lever on the right side of the console!" The Doctor ordered.

"Gotcha!" A moment later, the TARDIS dematerialized on the bridge, and the entourage of girls swarmed out of it, carrying fire extinguishers.

"What are those for?" The Doctor asked.

"The bridge is on fire!" Rainbow Dash replied, igniting the extinguisher, along with the other girls.

Meanwhile, Aria and Starlight were still fighting. The Doctor rushed over to them, shouting, "Stop!" but, they proceed to pummel each other. The Doctor grabbed the fire extinguisher from Fluttershy, and sprayed them both with the white foam.

"What was that for!?" Starlight shouted.

"You wouldn't stop." The Doctor explained. "Had I let you continue, you would've killed each other."

"That was the point." Starlight said, her fist clenched.

Aria stood over to the side, in a much worse condition the Starlight. Her nose was bloody, possibly broken, her right eye was black, and she was clutching her leg, as it seemed to be severely injured.

"Adagio, Sonata, help Aria into the TARDIS." The Doctor said, and the two girls obliged, wrapping Aria's arms around their shoulders.

"Well, that's my cue!" Starlight said, happily and reached behind a console, pulling out a vortex manipulator and strapping it to her wrist.

"What are you doing?" The Doctor asked, almost panicky.

"I'm leaving, you stuttering fool!" Starlight told him. "This was the plan no matter what."

Aria perked up slightly. "W-What?" She asked, her voice fading.

"Oh please, you think I actually liked you?" Starlight chuckled, "You're more deluded than I thought! I never cared about you! I just used you to help myself, and capture the Doctor, which might I say you did I remarkable job at. You didn't matter! As soon as I activated the beam, I would've teleported you and everyone else on this station to the planet, and watch you become talentless and equal, LIKE YOU SHOULD BE!!!

"But you!" Starlight turned to the Doctor, shoving her finger in his face, "You stopped me! You prevented me from turning the Earth into a sanctuary, you prevented me from helping everyone on the planet!" She stepped back and reached up to her vortex manipulator. "Don't think this is the last you've seen of me. I will be back."

She pressed the button. "NO!!!" The Doctor shouted angrily, pulling out his sonic screwdriver, and attempting to disable Starlight's teleport, but got to it too late, as she vanished in a flash of light, and crackle of electricity. Then the station rocked and shook.

"What was that?" Sunset asked.

"Oh, I think I activated the station self-destruct." The Doctor said. "It will explode in eighty seconds. Into the TARDIS everyone!" Everyone obliged, and rushed into the box. Once inside, the Doctor began flipping switches on the console.

"Doctor, we're missing someone!" Sunset shouted. The Doctor looked around the TARDIS. He took a head count. Nine. There should be ten.

"We're missing Pinkie Pie!" Rarity shouted.

The Doctor rushed out the door, into a plume of smoke and fire. The entire bridge was on fire, smoke everywhere, making it almost impossible to see. The Doctor heard the faintest cry for help. He rushed over to the cry.

A few meters away from him, Pinkie Pie's left leg was crushed under a metal pillar. She wasn't strong enough to move it. "Help!" She shouted, loudly. "I need an adult! I NEED AN ADULT!!!"

The Doctor emerged from the smoke, standing boldly. "I am an adult." He said calmly. He lifted the pillar off her leg, shrieking as he did so. Pinkie Pie withdrew her leg from the pillar, and the Doctor dropped it on the floor, with a loud clang!

"Come on!" He helped Pinkie Pie up, who then fell back over with a scream.

"I think my leg is broken!" She shouted, her eyes filled with tears, whether is was because she was sad, in pain, or the sting of her eyes against the smoke.

"I will not let anyone die! Not today! Everyone will live! Just this once, EVERYBODY LIVES!!!" The Doctor flipped Pinkie's left arm over his right shoulder, and half-carried her over to the TARDIS, kicking the door open. He passed Pinkie over to Sunset, and pulled the lever on the right side of the console, flying the TARDIS away from the station, five seconds before it was enveloped in flames.
