Whooves

Dr.Whooves woke in the morning and looked outside, noting that everyone in the wind tribe was quiet, as usual. Ever since King Sombra took Luna and Phoenix's throne, no one dared to talk. He wished he could use the TARDIS to change this, but it was no use anyways. The TARDIS was hidden far away from the territory. No one was allowed to leave.

He dressed in his guard suite carefully and trotted toward the gate. His only friend, Derpy Hooves, was always there with him. Dr.Whooves tried to stay awake beside her, but he was far too tired to try and stay awake. Derpy stared at him, thinking he wasn't doing too well. She waved her hoof in-front of him

"Doctor," she said quietly, "hey Doc, are you ok?"

"Couldn't..get..enough..sleep," Dr.Whooves replied with a yawn, "but I will be fine."

"No you won't!" Derpy stated, "by the next 2 minutes you'll be fast asle-"

"Wait!" Dr.Whooves interrupted, "You hear that!?" Some noise caught his ear.

They listened carefully. The sound of snow being crushed on the ground almost scared them. They were hoof steps. The only ones allowed outside of territories were King Sombra's top guards.

As the guard appeared, Derpy and Dr.Whooves put their attention on her.

"I'm General Sunflare" she said, "If you will excuse me, I have business to attend. Some pony in your tribe broke the rules."

Derpy nodded to one of the guards on top of the tower. Almost immediately the gate opened, allowing Sunflare to go inside.

Everything turned quiet. All attention was turned to the general.

"I would like to pull Trixie out of the tribe?" she said angrily, "due to arrogance saying she is the most powerful. No one is more powerful than the king."

Trixie slowly walked in shame. Sunflare signaled the prison chariot and Trixie was put inside. Her magic was disabled.

The shadow tribe's guards walked away. Everything was back to normal

Except for Dr.Whooves of course. The other tribe guards insisted he would go inside and sleep until he could return to work.

He wanted to go outside the territories. He wanted to do it now.
