Ponyville 2:11 AM 6/14/2012

The Friendship Express train had boarded and the passengers exited. "So this is Ponyville huh?" asked one of the passengers, "Kinda country, What do you think Toola Roola?"

"I think it has a certain rustic feel Starsong." Toola Roola said. Her blue eyes then looked toward her violet friend.

"Well we should probably see Cheerilee now. This place feels too crowded." Starsong said as she looked hat her friend's pink coat, red orange and yellow mane, and blue and purple tail.

"Agreed." The pink passenger said. She then levitated some paint and a brush into her bag with her horn, while her friend then stretched her violet wings.

The two mares had left the station and went to see their friend.

Ponyville 3:00 AM

Lyra Heartstrings was busy speaking with her friend, Bonbon outside their house. She said "But I saw it Bonbon, a real life human!"

"Not again. Lyra, dear for the last time Humans are a figment of your imagination!" Bonbon said. Ditzy Doo then just entered the household and dropped off a package.

"Thanks Ditzy," Lyra said as she signed for the package. She then put up the box and continued her argument. "But they do exist I saw one wearing a clock going to Canterlot yesterday morning." she said.

"What happened after that?" Bonbon said, her blue eyes looking to her friend's mint green fur.

"Well uhh, she vanished."

"Uh-Huh"

Just then the two ponies from the train station had then came to them.

"Hi we are looking for Cheerilee, have you two seen her?" Toola Roola said.

"She was heading to the schoolhouse to prepare for class," Bonbon said. She then pointed her cream-colored hoof to the east.

"Thanks" Starsong said.

The two mares left Lyra and Bonbon to their conversation. then Lyra noticed a silhouette in the distance.

"That's it Bonbon. that the human I told you about." Lyra exclaimed as she chased the figure.

"Oh Lyra." The Cream-colored mare sighed before she chased after Lyra.

Ponyville 6:00 AM

Rarity was taking her sister, Sweetie Belle to school. The filly said "I don't understand why you have to go with me today Rarity?" Meanwhile Apple Bloom was being escorted by her sister, Applejack. The four ponies had noticed two unfamiliar ponies enter the building. they saw that the 2 mares were talking with Cheerilee.

"Oh, You're here early." Cheerilee said.

"Yeah," Applejack said. Her green eyes were looking around the room and she said "So these are you're friends Pinkie told us about, right? Name's Applejack, and my sister's here is Apple Bloom." She tilted her hat.

"I'm Rarity and this is Sweetie Belle." The white unicorn introduced. She then levitated a mirror out to check her purple coiled mane. There wasn't a hair out of place and the makeup on her white fur is also perfect.

The three mares nodded and Cheerilee introduced Toola Roola and Starsong to the two pairs of sisters.

"So these are your friends huh," Rarity said. "But I thought they weren't supposed to be here for a couple days."

Just then Pinkie Pie pranced here in the room. The party pony brought out the trunk and said "Wow I can't believe you're here. isn't it great that you get to visit your friend after so long. I mean it must get so lonely without your friends around, am I right? Hey I almost forgot."

"You might want to cover your ears" Applejack said.

"And maybe step out of the way" Rarity said as her blue eyes looked towards the wall. Toola Roola and Starsong did just that as Pinkie started hopping around with some instruments singing a song.

"Welcome welcome welcome. I give my thought to you," Sang the pink pony. "Welcome, welcome welcome. I say [How do you do?]" She than blew a trumpet and brought a giant drum out. "Welcome welcome welcome. I just wanted to say. Welcome welcome welcome. To Ponyville today."

When the song ended cake batter shot out of the pipes and confetti shot out of the oven. Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie cleaned up the classroom before leaving the schoolhouse.

"Right well class is about to start, Would you like to help me today?" the schoolteacher said.

"Of course." the pony with multiple mane colors said.

"Sure." the purple pegasus said.

Ponyville 10:00 PM

The Doctor was busy with the Sonic Screwdriver inside his mouth fixing the TARDIS. When River Song entered the box and said "You're not thinking of going to that party are you?"

"Why not? I've went to dozens of parties, your parents' wedding reception for example." said the stallion.

"OK but..." she looked at the top of his head which had a hard hat for some reason "What in the name of sanity are you wearing?"

"It's a hardhat, hardhats are cool."

"You have got to be kidding me."

The Doctor and River decided to leave the blue box and saw Rainbow Dash flying by and crashing into some nearby trees, she fell and knocked over a tree. She tried to get her cyan head out of the tree. When she got out she said "Aw almost had it."

"Well it helps that you stay away from the trees." The green pony deadpanned.

"Why don't you zip it lady!" The blue pegasus demanded. then Applejack came into the area.

"Rainbow Dash, what are you doing?" the farm pony said.

"I was practicing my stunts." The rainbow-maned pony answered. Applejack then noticed the other two ponies.

"And who are you supposed to be?" the farm pony said.

The stallion replied "Well My name is John Smith and this is my companion River Song. you may call me the Doctor if you wish."

"Well My name's Rainbow Dash and i will become Equestria's number one stunt-mare." Said the cyan pegasus as she removed the twigs from her rainbow-colored mane.

"At crashing," River snarked. Applejack snickered a bit. Rainbow Dash said "Oh yeah, mark my words: I will join the Wonderbolts and become the best stunt-pony you ever seen." She then flew away.

"Well it's been a pleasure meeting you professor." Applejack said. "Ah have to go back to the farm for some rest. Maybe we'll see each other soon." she then left.

'Yeah sooner than you think.' thought the Doctor.

Canterlot 1:00 PM

Princess Celestia was looking through the Star Swirl the Bearded wing with shining Armor and several other royal guardsponies. Shining Armor said "But you said that Time-Stopping spell is deeply hidden in a secret room that only you know. How would somepony even steal the spell?"

The princess said "I don't know but we'll find out." She raised her horn and an wall opened up. She entered the passage. When she reached the end of the hall she saw a table with nothing on it.

"Oh No."

Ponyville 4:25 PM

Twilight was aiming her telescope at the stars when a certain stallion entered the tree. "Hello is this the Library?" said the Doctor. Twilight looked away from her telescope and greeted the stallion. She said "Yes this is the library. I'm the librarian, Twilight Sparkle." said the lavender unicorn.

The brown stallion said "John Smith, but everypony calls me the Doctor."

"Doctor wh--" the librarian was interrupted by the stallion. "Just [The Doctor.]"

"I see." Twilight said. "So what brings you here Doctor?"

"I heard you're doing some astronomy tonight. I came to see if you need some help?"

"No I'm good but thanks. Are you going to Pinkie's party tomorrow?"

"Yes I plan on it. Why, are you going?"

"Maybe but first i came to check out the stars. Since Spike is busy helping Rarity with her business I figured i check out something peculiar in space."

"What's so peculiar?" the stallion said as he looked through the telescope. "Hmm some stars in the constellation Orion are missing. That is abnormal." The stallion mused on this and said "Well i hope you will come to the party tomorrow." He then took a book from the shelves "Mind if i check this out?"

"[Elements of Harmony: A reference Guide]? sure." Twilight then proceeded to check out the book. The Doctor opened the door when a small purple dragon entered the room, surprising both Twilight and The Doctor.

"Twilight, you have to read this!" the baby dragon exclaimed.

The purple unicorn said "What is it Spike?"

"An urgent letter from the princess." Spike then took out the letter which the unicorn read

My Most Faithful Student; Someone has broken into the castle and took a spell from stopping time. I don't know who took it but be on your guard.

The purple mare put away the scroll and said "Well see you tomorrow, bye." She then pushed the stallion out. The Doctor managed to catch a glimpse of the letter before leaving and said "Well a time-stopping spell? Well wonders never cease. Better tell River about this" as he walked toward the TARDIS.

Ponyville 7:06 PM

Cherrilee was busy grading papers when Toola Roola opened the door. "Well this place is nothing like Manehatten that's for sure." said the multicolored-mane pony. she then used her horn to levitate a paintbrush and started painting on a nearby easel.

The plum earth pony said "Yeah it sure is something. The students here are for the most part wonderful. Hey why did you decide to stay in Manehatten way back when?"

"I didn't think i was ready then, and I'm not sure I am ready now. Hey that kid what was her name, Apple Blossom..."

"Apple Bloom." Cherrilee corrected.

"Right, She seems to have great potential as an artist. Maybe I can give her a few pointers"

"I wish. She and her friends are more worried about getting their cutie marks."

"Yeah i heard but maybe Starsong and I can change that for her and Sweetie Belle but Scootaloo may be more of a challenge."

"Tell me about it."

"Well most of the time friends do lots of stuff together. That's pretty much the whole point." Toola Roola finished her painting. "I just hope they find their talents before it's too late."

The teacher pony said. "You're not the only one." Both left the schoolhouse leaving behind a painting of the two and Starsong.

Scheat ⚜ The Beginning of the End

Ponyville 5:00 AM 6/14/2012

The cloaked figure was hiding nearby the woods, unaware that Lyra and Bonbon were stalking from behind a nearby house. The ponies were joined by Flitter and Cloudchaser. Flitter said "What are you doing?" while tapping Lyra with her lavender hoof.

The two mares were startled by the question. "Flitter, Cloudchaser, You're gonna give us away!" the green unicorn whispered. "Who are you stalking? I thought you two had each other." Cloudchaser teased. Bonbon replied "We saw this creature over there." as she pointed to an empty space. Flitter said "What creature?" "It's gone, must've went into the forest." Lyra exclaimed. The four mares had entered the Everfree Forest.

Everfree Forest 5:02 AM

The figure had seen 10 strange beings nearby a pale blue unicorn. She had a purple robe and appeared to had been strapped to a table. The others however looked like they were dressed in formal tuxedos and they have no mouths. "You think that Trixie will go and ahead and preform THAT spell?" the blue unicorn said. The strange figures replied "Yes; You have no choice, little pony. You will perform the spell and stop time."

"And what if Trixie doesn't have the power to do that then?" Trixie responded. "She may be Great and Powerful, but that spell looks like it would take the magic of 6 unicorns and she is only one. You [Silents] haven't thought of that huh?"

"This device should fix that." One silent then flipped a nearby switch and some sparking liquid started to inject into their captive. She moaned in pain as the more needles were injecting. The cloaked figure took out a Ray-gun and shot one of the tubes.

"Leave her alone." The cloaked woman then emerged from the bush.

"What are you gonna do? You cant even save your dimension from us 3 years ago." One of the Silents taunted. "You survived only by pure chance. You had no chance of stopping us [Sirius.]"

"Maybe, but I know someone who will."

"He will die soon. Silence will fall."

The four mares caught up the the cloaked alien and hid behind another bush. Bonbon whispered "OK so you proved your point Lyra, Humans do exist, Happy?"

Lyra said "I'm happy but she isn't." as she pointed to the show-mare. still screaming in pain. The fluids were still pouring in and her Horn had glowed a deep violet. One of the silents had noticed the ponies hiding in the bush. and vanished. Sirius pointed her blaster at one of the aliens and said "Let her go."

The silent held at gunpoint said "Fine, but know that silence will fall with the sun." The aliens undid the restraints and the blue pony ran in fear. The aliens had vanished in thin air and the four ponies were stunned.

"What just happened?" Flitter said as she scratched her green mane and pink bow.

"Weren't we chasing something of Lyra's imagination?" Cloudchaser said as she straitened her white and blue mane.

"Over there!" Lyra said. the cloaked woman had directed her attention to the 4 ponies.

"Oh horse apples." said Bonbon.

Ponyville 12:00 Noon

The Doctor re-parked the TARDIS close to the bakery. The Time Lord said "Well that should do it; now we should be able to head to the party." The time stallion was wearing a tuxedo and some saddlebags when River said "Doctor this is a casual event, not The Grand Galloping Gala. What do you think you will hope to impress at the party?". "What Pinkie said [dress casual.]" said the brown stallion. "I clearly seen more of Equestria then you then." deadpanned the pale green pony who then left. Meanwhile inside the bakery, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy were busy talking about the letter from yesterday.

Rainbow Dash said "Let me get this straight. You mean that something broke into Canterlot..."

"...Entered the Star Swirl the Bearded wing..." Applejack repsonded.

"...Took some spell that you claimed could stopped time and left..." Rarity said.

"...Then another creature came in..." Fluttershy said.

"...To warn Princess Celestia?" Pinkie Pie said.

"Yes," Twilight said as she took out the parchment. "I still have the letter."

Just then the Doctor entered the building and the girls halted their conversation. "Hello everypony" he said "I was wondering when the party was gonna start?"

The rainbow-maned pegasus had said skeptically "Why? That party is invitation only!". "Rainbow!" the farmer pony said.

"Ah yes the invitation let me see." He rummaged through his saddlebag. "Let's see," he whispered, "Psychic Paper, no. Sonic Screwdriver, no. Ah." he took out a pink and yellow slip that Said "Invitation." You gave me and my mate this two days ago. The party pony examined the small ship and said "Sure did. It's ok everypony."

Rainbow Dash put her hoof on her face and said "Pinkie, didn't Cheeilee said not to invite strangers?"

"The party is in 3 hours Doctor." Twilight said.

"Ah thanks." said the stallion.

"You know this pony Twilight?" Applejack said.

"He checked out some books from the Library last night." Twilight replied.

"Oh, i see by the way," The cyan mare said. "Where's your [wife] huh?"

Rarity cut in front of the cyan pony and said "Sorry about that Doctor, Rainbow Dash can get a little unruly."

"I see well time to go I have to prepare for tonight." The Doctor then left.

"Wait," Twilight said. "Can you help us with a problem?"

The other ponies save Pinkie and the Doctor were stunned, The rainbow-maned pegasus said "Can we talk to you Twilight?" The 6 mares had huddled in the back.

Rainbow Dash whispered "You don't really think we can trust this pony do you?"

"Uhh he seems nice." Fluttershy responded.

"Yeah but there is something...off about him?" Rarity whispered.

"Are you sure he didn't take the spell sugar-cube?" Applejack responded.

"I trust him, he seems super-duper fun." Pinkie Pie said.

"I don't know guys but i think he might be able to help. Besides the princess said that whoever warned her of the theft turned invisible and that the guards couldn't remember there was a breach." Twilight said.

"Ok then, but he still seems to be hiding something." the blue pegasus whispered.

The group broke their huddle and the Doctor said "So what do you need help with?". The 7 had then discussed the Theft from two days ago.

Ponyville 12:30 PM

River Song had left the Doctor to look around the town for something wrong. She bumped into Ditzy. "Sorry." said the gray pegasus. "It's fine." said River who left the pegasus to her business. She decided to go eat.

After receiving her menu she thought "Rubbish! Nothing here but hay and grass. The bakery had better food then this." She saw another green pony. She had a Pink and white mane and some peppermints as her cutie mark and for some odd reason was wearing a pair of sock on her back hooves. The pink-maned pony said "Hello would you like some Peppermints?" The other green earth pony then said "Sure why not?" River than took a mint from the strange pony.

The pink-maned pony asked "You're not from around here are you?"

The curly-maned pony said "No i just came two days ago, You?"

"I just moved here a month ago. Name's Minty." said the mint-green pony.

"River Song."

"So what brings you here to this quiet place?"

"I'm here on a [vacation] of sorts with my husband. You?"

"I'm here to spread the joy of Hearth's Warming Eve, Peppermint, and Socks." said Minty

"You know that holiday's not for another six mouths right."

"I know."

"And I thought that Pink pony was mad," River thought.

The fish-eyed mail-mare from earlier had appeared from with a package of socks and River said her goodbyes left some bits and left.

Ponyville 2:00 PM

Toola Roola and Starsong were busy preparing for the party tonight. The two ponies bought some paints, brushes, crayons, and pencils. She said "Why did you leave your career behind Starsong?"

"It's complicated Tolla Roola." The violet pegasus said. "I mean there was the signing, the dancing, the records."

The pink unicorn pointed to the purple and pink star on her flank and said "But you were an amazing performer. Singing is your talent."

"It was but there was too many things to keep up with."

The two mares had noticed the Cutie Mark Crusaders playing with a beach ball. And The pink artist had lamented her loss. She said "You're lucky, at least you and Cheerilee had more time to develop your talents."

Starsong pointed to the paintbrush on her multicolored-maned friends flank and said "But you are an amazing artist."

"Yeah" sighed the artist as they were headed to the marketplace. There they encountered a zebra buying some fruit.

The zebra said "Oh some new ponies had entered town. / Child why do you look so down?"

Toola Roola said "It's nothing. So you're that zebra the fillies mentioned Zecora, Right?".

The zebra had noticed something and conversed with the two mares and then left. Toola Roola and Starsong went to the bakery.

Ponyville 2:11 PM

The mailmare was busy helping Minty open all her packages.

"I don't remember ordering so many socks," Minty said, amazed at the huge mountain of socks.

Ditzy said "Oops. It appears I put a couple extra zeros there, sorry." Suddenly they heard a small scream from the forest.

"What the hay was that?" the mint-green earth pony said. The two mares decided to investigate. They entered the forest and saw Bonbon lying down, she was covered in tally marks for some reason.

Minty said "What happened?" Ditzy shrugged, they then noticed Lyra was nearby, unconscious and also covered in tally marks. The two mares then woke up. Lyra then noticed the marks on her cream-colored friend.

"Not again," Lyra then noticed the sock-loving earth pony and the ditzy pegasus "You need to get out of here."

"Why?" the pegasus said.

"I can't remember, but something's here, and it's dangerous." The unicorn answered.

"Is it that [human] thing you were ranting about?" Minty said.

"No!" The other green pony said, "Those things aren't pony OR human."

Meanwhile a little deeper in the forest Sirius, Flitter, and Cloudchaser, was busy evading the aliens, the two pegasi were also covered in marks.

"I don't get it." Cloudchaser said. "What are they?"

Sirius said "They're called the Silence. They are aliens that hypnotize you and erase any memory you have of their meeting you. The last thing you ever heard before, you'll do when the monster leaves your sight".

"Okay," Flitter responded "But what do they want?"

Sirius then said "Us dead, and the world stilled in time. We have to get out of here" The three had met up with the Lyra and Bonbon and noticed two other ponies are with them. Sirius had unveiled some panel hidden in the bushes and whispered "Teleportaion Code: β-α-Δ-ω-Ω-λ-φ." Multiple silents had emerged from the shadows. But several gyroscopic rings had emerged from the ground, spinning around Sirius and the ponies. until one by one they vanished.

meanwhile one of the silents had returned. He said "They escaped."

A transmission screen had appeared in front of the aliens. A woman with an eye-patch had said "Forget them. They are not the objective. The spell will be cast in a couple hours. find the Doctor and trap him in this world". The holographic screen had vanished and the aliens began moving toward Ponyville.

Algenib ⚜ Requiem of the Stars

Ponyville 2:30 PM 6/15/2012

"Come on Fluttershy, The party won't start 'til the party supplies get there." Pinkie Pie was being lifted by balloons tied at her waist.

"Happy to help." Fluttershy said as she was being levitated by a larger mass of balloons. "But why do you need so much balloons?"

"Because," the party pony responded "We are celebrating the first time Cheerilee had talked to her friends in 7 years."

"Okay," Fluttershy said. They two mares had entered the bakery. There they saw the Doctor as well as their four friends helping decorating the place.

"How did you the permission to host the party here in the first place" said the time stallion.

Pinkie responded "Well the Cakes had to deliver this cake to Canterlot, so I have the place all to myself."

"I see," the Doctor then thought about how the bakers might respond to this mess. Pinkie honked his nose and said "Don't worry, I throw parties all the time and the Cakes don't seem to mind."

The Doctor then looked outside. There the sun was just a couple hours from touching the horizon.

Ponyville 3:00 PM

The guests are arriving at the bakery, starting with Cheelilee, Toola Roola, and Starsong. The 3 fillies also came in the gingerbread building, and last but not least River Song had entered. The pale green earth pony met up with the brown stallion. River said "So what did you find out?"

"Well i found out that Pinkie brought new meaning to the term [Party Animal.]" The Doctor answered as the party pony was blindfolding herself.

"Well I see. Tell me Doctor, is the first time you met actual unicorns and pegasi?"

"Pegasi, yes. Unicorn uh yes and no." said the stallion. "I remember meeting a thief called the unicorn with a giant wasp and Agatha Christie."

"I see." River said. Meanwhile Twilight Sparkle and Spike are busy talking with Toola Roola. She said "So you are an artist?"

"Yes I am." Toola Roola said. "I usually paint in my spare time."

"Wow that's amazing."

"Ehh" Spike shrugged. Then the purple dragon burped up green flames and a scroll. Twilight levitated it and read it silently.

My most faithful student; I have just discovered that the thief stole other spells from the castle. Watch out for anything suspicious.

The purple unicorn put the scroll away and continued her conversation. Meanwhile Rarity and Starsong were having their own conversation. "So you were a former singer?" said Rarity.

"Yeah" Starsong said. "You probably haven't heard of me I have been on the stage for only 2 years before retiring."

"But I don't understand, You could had been a star." The white unicorn replied.

"But I was getting too busy. I mean I've always make the time to talk to Cheerilee and Toola Roola. But there was just too little time to just hang out."

"I see, you though your career was tearing apart your friendship huh? I know somepony who knows how you feel." Rarity then looks at Fluttershy who was busy keeping an eye on the Crusaders. Rainbow Dash then butted in and said "Hey do you know the Wonderbolts?"

"No i haven't met them." Starsong said. The rainbow-maned pegasus sighed.

"Hey I got a cuite mark!" Scootaloo exclamed. Everypony had gathered around the filly, strangely they were in different positions than earlier.

The pegasus filly's flank had some red lines on it.

"That's the strangest cutie mark Ah've ever seen." Apple Bloom said. "What is it?" Sweetie Belle said.

The Doctor had taken a closer look and noticed that the cutie mark was dripping, and saw similar marks on the other ponies.

"Those are not cutie marks!" the stallion realized. "Those are tally marks!"

Canterlot 3:30 PM

Celestia was battling several Silents in the grand hall. She was joined her sister, Luna. "Art thou feeling Ok sister?" Luna said.

Ceestia said "I'm fine Luna, help The Royal Guard fight off the intruders." She then headed to her throne room. She inserted her horn into a recess on the wall. The door opened to reveal a jewel-encrusted box. She levitated the box and flew out side the castle. Luna meanwhile was off to battle the slender intruders with Shining Armor and a pink alicorn. Passing some statues on pedestals. One of the pedestal has no statue on it.

Celestia was flying to Ponyville where more Silents were wreaking havoc across town. She saw Twilight attempting to blast the aliens, her body was cover in red paint lines. She noticed the white alicorn.

"Princess, What are you doing here?" the purple unicorn said. An alien was about to attack the unicorn. Celestia blasted the alien away and all nearby aliens fled.

"You don't remember?" Celestia said.

"No," the magical mare responded. "Last thing I remember, I was at a party with my friends and some other ponies," More silents had entered the area and suddenly the unicorn's memories returned. The two ponies were blasting them unconscious and then the librarian said "And then they appeared but you... Oh no.. does that mean.."

The Princess nodded "Take this box and find your friends, I'll distract them." She then levitated the box and Twilight took control of the aura surrounding it. The purple unicorn nodded and ran off. Meanwhile The Doctor and River were nearby the TARDIS avoiding the Silents attacks when Rainbow Dash rammed one of the aliens. She said "How the hay did these monster get here?"

River said "I don't know. they could had been here the whole time and we wouldn't even notice."

The brown stallion then said "The Silents can erase your memory of ever encountering them. These marks are the only proof the you had even met them. We need to get inside the box!"

"Why?" Rainbow Dash said. "That booth's too small, it can't fit everypony!"

Meanwhile Applejack and Rarity were escorting Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong and the Cutie Mark Crusaders to the blue box while Pinkie was firing her Party cannon. The rest of the townsponies had left in panic. Twilight was entering into view with the box the princess gave her and entered the blue box first. And the others followed.

The cloister bells in the TARDIS started ringing. The Doctor was busy pressing buttons and pulling levers. "Can't you press faster?" yelled Rainbow Dash. The Doctor said "This ship was meant for 5 pilots, and fingers". Toola Roola was painting marks on everypony while Twilight and Rarity was setting up barricades from inside.

Everfree Forest 4:55 PM

Trixie was far away from the metal restraints. And she triumphantly said "Ha! I don't remember who you are, but you can force The Great and Powerful Trrrixie to perform any spells. Not while she is still Great and Powerful." She looked to the horizon and saw the sun set. Her horn started glowing a radiant purple and she said "What, no I didn't cast any spells." The glow of her magic had been intensifying. She said "What's happening? I don't remember having so much power." She sent a beam and The clear and starry sky had changed to infernal orange and blue clouds covering the entire atmosphere. "NO, NOOOOO!" said the show-mare as she emitted another beam straight up. The beam's diameter was increasing, growing with each passing second and the spell-caster couldn't stop it.

TARDIS 5:00 PM

The aliens were vanishing one by one. "Ow, My head," said some of the ponies. Applejack said "Professor where are we?" having forgotten most of what happened in the last hour. The TARDIS' cloister bells are still ringing.

The Doctor replied "You're in the TARDIS, it's my home."

Pinkie said "Wow it's bigger on the inside."

"Even ponies say it, isn't it wonderful." The Doctor then noticed that he was in the middle of starting the machine and realized that they weren't in the time machine a couple seconds ago. Twilight peeked outside and saw burning orange clouds where constellations and a giant bean of light growing in their way. She said "We need to go now."

The brown earth pony then looked outside, closed the door and said "Right. Escape first, explanations later." He then finished the process and the TARDIS slowly but surely disappeared.

Canterlot 6:07 PM

The aliens had disappeared and the ponies successful in driving the aliens away. "What happened?" said Luna, the royal guard and alicorns had forgot the battle. The pink one had noticed a giant beam of light and directed Luna's attention.

Luna said "What hath happened here?"

"I don't know, Cadence?" said the white unicorn.

"We have to stop it." said the pink alicorn. "Where's Celestia?"

Luna had noticed she left for Ponyville and decided to head there. The other two had followed her. but the giant beam had been growing closer and engulfed the three ponies. leaving nothing but silence.

Enif ⚜ Into the Void

TARDIS ??:00 ??/??/????

The TARDIS was flying through the red vortex, cloister bells ringing. The ponies inside were trying to help the Time lord and his companion fly the blue box. The Doctor and River had started to take on human-like features. "The perception filter's wearing off, great. You may want to cover the fillies eyes." The Doctor said as he was running around the control panel

River was also trying to fly the ship. Applejack and Pinkie were leading the 12+ ponies on board to another room. Twilight and Rarity were trying to find out what had just happened. and Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy was asking the brown stallion about the circumstances, of course he was too busy to answer. Suddenly the ship had felt a impact. "Oh what now?" said the Time Lord.

The green now half pony had put on some clothes and examined the screens. She said "Doctor, it looks like we in the middle of a meter shower."

"What? But we are flying through time and space, there should be nothing of the sort here." The stallion said. He went up to the computer screen now on his hind legs. And said "Well there is."

River went to the main controls and turned off the brakes. The distinctive "vroop vroop" sound halted, but the Cloister bells rang. They rang at a more alarming pace than previously.

"We had a hard enough time just getting here as it is," said the green half pony to the half stallion "The TARDIS can't stutter in this this mess." By the time she finished she was back to her original form. She looked like a human woman with her blond hair in even more curls. The Doctor, now looked like a human man wearing a tweed jacket instead of his tuxedo. He had some sort of raggedy clothes on.

Twilight was using her magic to try and set up a force field around the ship. The other ponies were trying to stay alive in the ship.

The Doctor said "We can't evade this storm, These meteors are coming at all sides."

"But we have to do something." Applejack said.

"Should we panic now?" Fluttershy said.

"That's you answer to everything!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

The purple unicorn was still trying to keep the barrier up. The human-looking woman had noticed some signs of life surrounding them. The screen showed several dots with a big one representing the TARDIS in the center and several small ones surrounding the ship. Suddenly another big dot identical to the one in the center had emerged.

"To get though this mess would be easy," thought the man in the tweed jacket, "But to get back to our space under these circumstances would need... That's it!" the madman had dashed to a nearby terminal "A Quantum Feedback Loop." He began pushing buttons and flipping switches as fast as he can. The TARDIS began emitting some sort of loop. 'Damn,' he thought 'We need more power.'

One of the meteors had finally hit the shield and broke it on impact. The recoil had knocked Twilight off her hooves. Outside the TARDIS, another time machine had emerged in front and began putting the ship in a tractor beam. The other ship looked like some sort of sphere. The screen at the terminal had turned on showing a cloaked woman. The figure's eyes were obscured by the hood. She had vanished from the screen. The screen then showed the sound-wave's frequency. A blue wavy line wad appeared. It was joined by another orange line behind it. The bumps on the orange line are bigger, but they were shrinking with each second, matching the TARDIS blue wave. Both ships had accelerated at an alarming rate. knocking out everyone on board the TARDIS.

The blue box had exited the Void and emerged in space. but the spherical ship was nowhere to be seen.

??? ??:00

The Doctor had woken up inside a white void of sorts. There he saw another figure, a woman. She looked like someone from the Victorian era of earth. She walked up to the Time lord and said "Hello again, My thief."

"It can't be. I must be dreaming." thought the Doctor. "Sexy?"

"Yes."

"What are you doing here? You should be inside the TARDIS. You should be the the TARDIS"

"You're dreaming. The way back to your space was more bumpy then you though no?"

"The way ba-" the Time Lord remembered what happened before he blacked out and said "Is everyone OK?"

"Yes, for now." said the Old Girl. She took out one of her eyes and it took the form of a small obelisk. "A dark force is returning Doctor."

"Why are you showing me the Eye of Harmony?" the befuddled madman said. "You know as well as I do that this power source was destroyed in the Time War."

"Another Harmony had taken it's place in your life. And yet you haven't realized it?" she said in a teasing voice. He remembered checking out a book. A book then materialized in the doctor's hand, brown with gold adornments and a unicorn head in the center of the cover.

"Take care of them my thief, you know they are important to their universe as you are in yours."

The woman had vanished as did the Time Lord.

Leadworth 6:00 PM 6/16/2012

A spherical ship had appeared in an empty forest in the town of Leadworth. The sphere's rings had turned until the ship vanished and 7 cloaked figures on a metal circle appeared in its place and the rings disappeared into the ground. One of the cloaked figures was humanoid, while the other 6 appeared to be small equines.

One of the hooded figures had removed her hood to reveal Lyra's face. She said in amazement "Wow so this is the human world?"

Another cloaked pony removed her hood and reveal Bonbon's face. The twin-color-maned pony said "OK Sirius we helped that box escape the void. Now would you like to explain what we are doing here?"

The other cloaked ponies had removed their hoods revealing the heads of Minty, Ditzy, Flitter, and Cloudchaser. Sirius didn't remove her hood. The fully cloaked woman then said "You can't go home, it's been trapped in silence."

The ponies had been baffled. One of the pegasi said "What do you mean [trapped in silence?]"

Sirius responded "The aliens that you saw earlier, do you remember them?"

Bonbon deadpanned "Besides the one that kidnapped us? No."

Sirius said "The Silence had entered Equestria and stopped time there. 3 years from now in a universe parallel to this one they had done the same thing there. And they will try the same thing here and across all universes and dimensions, but there is a man who had stopped them before. But i don't think he can stop them again, not alone. Will you help me help this man."

"What do you mean?" Flitter said. Her sister said "We may be able to try at least." the other four ponies nodded. The cloaked woman said thanks. and looked to the sky.

Leadworth 10:00 PM

Amy Williams had just turned on the telly. There was a BBC news story about some sudden meteor shower. Her husband Rory had just walked in. He said "Amy? What are you watching."

"The news Rory." Amy answered. "There's apparently some meteor shower tonight."

Rory replied "Do you think it's the Doctor?"

"Maybe. He has made weirder stuff happen." Amelia sighed.

"Well I don't think the Doctor would come crashing in without letting us know" Rory said. The married couple then heard a crash outside. They took a look, they saw an all too familial blue box on their yard. It left some sort of trench for miles leading to their house.

Amy then let her red hair flow in the gentle night breeze and deadpanned "Well kind of hard not to crash a time machine without letting us know."

The phone box opened and the nurse and his wife had looked. They saw a man wearing a tweed jacket just waking up and saw Amy and Rory. he said "Oh hello Pond," He then looked around the place and saw River Song waking up. The Pond-Williams also noticed some pastel colored ponies unconscious inside the much bigger-on-the-inside box. The Doctor also noticed and said "Oh don't worry. They're not the queen this time." Amy fainted from how sudden this visit.

When River came too she noticed Amy and said "Father dearest, I think mummy needs a drink."

Alpheratz ⚜ Beyond the Void

Leadworth 12:11 AM 6/17/2012

The Doctor, Rory, and River had just woken up the unconscious Amy and the ponies on the TARDIS. The last Time Lord then led the passengers inside Amy's house. Some were confused, others were amazed, and others was ticked off from the turn of events. One of these angry ponies, Rainbow Dash had flew up to the madman's face and shouted "All right [Doctor,] Where are we!?" Applejack had bitten the rainbow-maned pegasus' tail to hold her back.

"Yeah, what in the world of Equestria is going on?" Toola Roola said.

"Uh, Equestria?" Rory said.

"It's a long story." The doctor answered. "You may want to sit down."

The ponies as well as the other companions then proceeded to find a place to sit. The six bearers of the Elements sat down on the floor closest to the kitchen, Cheerilee and her 3 students sat down nearby the doors outside, Toola Roola, and Starsong sat down in-between, The Pond-Williams found some chairs for most of the guests and then sat down. The Doctor then proceeded to introduce everyone and then explain what happened at that party, and what happened to the ponies home world.

Leadworth 1:45 AM

"What?" Rainbow dash said. "You mean we're stuck here?"

"Well that's one way of putting it." The Doctor answered. "Getting through the Void is a bit tricky."

"A bit?" Applejack said. "We had been stuck in some sort of meteor storm!"

"Uhh," Fluttershy said. "is it possible to bring us back?"

The Doctor put on a fez said "Yes and no. You see. While both worlds run perpendicular to each other, time was somehow stopping in yours. We barely made it by the skin of our teeth. Any more questions?"

"Yes i have a question," Rarity said. "Why are you wearing that awful fez?"

"Fezzes are cool." The Doctor responded.

River placed her palm on her face, then proceeded to knock the fez off her husband's head. Pinkie Pie then said "What about those aliens you told us about? You know the memory-proof ones?"

The nurse and his wife then looked at the man in the tweed jacket. "I was getting to that." The madman said.

He then explained to the ponies about the silence. How they erased any memory about meeting them, and how they force suggestions into your mind after they left. Everyone went to get some sleep after the explanation. The 12 ponies went to sleep in the TARDIS.

TARDIS 8:02 AM

The Doctor had not went to sleep. He was busy examining the TARDIS. Everyone was just waking up while the Doctor was busy looking in every nook and cranny for the source of the mysterious message he saw inside the vortex.

He saw something on the news. The person on the telly said "A mysterious meteor storm has been witnessed last night." The Time Lord was still looking for the source until something on the news report caught his eye. "Now that can't be right." He said.

He used his sonic screwdriver to rewind back to the start of the story. The anchorman said "A mysterious meteor storm has been witnessed last night." The telly then cut to a video depicting the night sky there were some colours streaking the night sky. of the streaks The Doctor had focused on a blue streak, after a few seconds that blue streak changed to a purplish colour.

He used the screwdriver again to zoom the image and enhance it. The image was blurry but he saw it, his own TARDIS surrounded by Twilight's spell. The image was then zoomed back and the video replayed. One of the "meteors" then collided with the now pink streak witch changed blue afterwards

"But if that was the TARDIS..." The Doctor realized. He watched the rest of the news hoping to find some answers.

Leadworth 9:05 AM

Toola Roola had just woken up. She was wandering around the halls of the ship until she saw Rarity who was getting herself ready.

"Oh hello darling," she said to the multicolored-maned unicorn. "Can I help you?"

"Hello," the pink unicorn said. "How are you feeling Rarity?"

"Fine. I heard that your friend used to be a singer yes?"

"Yeah Starsong used to be a wonderful singer." She said. "But she quit for some reason."

"Well i was wondering if you can get her to give my sister lessons."

"Singing lessons?"

"More like getting around her stage fright."

"I see, I'll ask her."

"Thanks." The white unicorn said.

"No problem." the pink one responded.

The two unicorns had parted ways for now. Meanwhile Cheerilee and Starsong were talking in another room.

"So what exactly were you doing while on stage?" the plum earth pony said.

"Well..." the violet pegasus said. "I do a little singing, a little dancing, and some other tricks."

"I see."

"You sure have changed Cheerilee. No longer just wanting to tell stories huh?"

"Well you seemed to gotten over your shyness since we last met face to face."

The pegasus blushed "Well. I don't know, maybe."

"Well, see you later." The schoolteacher giggled. "My class may have less students attending but that doesn't mean i don't a job to do."

"I see. Well see you soon." The ex-singer said.

The mares went their separate ways.

TRADIS 12:00 Noon

Fluttershy was busy chatting with Pinkie Pie and watching Rainbow Dash fly over the place

"I don't know Pinkie," the shy pegasus said. "This place seems...scary."

The rainbow-maned pegasus had just landed on the spot and said "Well it IS bigger on the inside, and the guy who uses it looks off."

"Really," Pinkie said. "He seems like a nice guy."

"He also seems crazy." She rebutted. "And really, we just met him for a few days and the next thing we know we wind up with no memory of the past few hours and inside another dimension?"

"He said that these silents were responsible for what happened to Equestria." Fluttershy said. The three then heard a voice telling them to got o the control room. It was the Doctor transmitting over the intercom.

TARDIS 12:25 PM

Everyone was inside the control room of the TARDIS where the Doctor was busy tinkering with the TARIS controls. All of the adult ponies plus River, Rory, and Amy were inside the room. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were playing in another room. The Time Lord said "OK so i bet you want to know why i called you here?"

"Yeah, enlighten us." The untrusting Rainbow Dash deadpanned.

"Doctor what's going on?" Amy said.

The Time Lord then turned on a hologram above the control panel in front of the giant system of tubes and pumps. "Ok so last night there was a meteor storm, the sky above you was dancing with lights: Purple, Green, Brilliant yellow..."

"Yes!" Rarity interuppted.

"What?" Amy said.

"Your shoes," the white unicorn then points her hoof at the shoes of the girl who waited "They look darling."

"Uh, Thanks?" Amy siad.

The fashionable unicorn then realized she had interrupted the conversation and said "Oh go ahead."

"Thank you." He then continued. "Now as i was saying these so-called [meteors] are actually something else." He then zoomed the image with his screwdriver and the hologram now looks like sever glowing hot metal spheres.

"Now see this," the Doctor said. "This is chronosteel."

"OK," Twilight said. "What is chronosteel?"

"Imagine metal forged inside the time vortex."

"I see." The purple unicorn replied.

"Then don't," said the Time Lord. "Cause this type is nothing at all like that."

"Doctor what are you getting at?" Cheerilee said.

"Yeah," Toola Roola said. "You mean this isn't metal?"

"No, the key word here is [forged.]" The man in the tweed jacket said. "Regular chronosteel is forged in the vortex, but this alloy seems to be transmutated."

"Ok why are you telling us this?" Applejack said.

"Because. Regular or not this is still chronosteel," said River Song. "And that means this alloy can change the course of time itself."

"Got some good news though:" The Doctor said. "The good news is that with this alloy's effects aren't as immediate as the regular kind. It won't rip the fabric of reality apart yet."

"And the bad news?" Rory said.

"Well, we still need to collect all 88 pieces of this ore if we are to have any chance of bringing back our extradimensional guests. And that the ore may also have other effects to compensate for the [universe not being ripped apart] thing."

"And?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Well I have this theory that they contain the minds and souls of the ponies and such that haven't escaped the silents and time stopping on Equestria."

"What?" The purple unicorn said.

"It's a theory" the Doctor responded. "But I need to examine a sample to be sure."

"So how are we gonna find this crono-whatus?" The pink earth pony said while bouncing.

The Doctor said "I think I have an idea. But i will need some time Ok?"

The Doctor ended the conversation. Amy and Rory asked to talk with him and River.

TARDIS 5:02 PM

Twilight Sparkle was busy looking inside the TARDIS's library. She saw so many books. From Dictionaries, to Thesauruses, to other books. The Doctor had walked in. "So you really like to read huh?" said the Time Lord.

"Yeah." The purple unicorn sighed.

"Miss your mentor huh?"

"I just don't understand. Why did this have to happen?" She started started to cry.

"Listen Miss Sparkle. I will bring you and the others back to Equestria. Oh yes I will. And until then there must be no regrets, no tears, no enzymes." The Doctor said as he was comforting the unicorn. "You must go on with your beliefs and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine."

"Do you really think that Celestia, Luna, and the others are ok."

"My dear, I've seen planets rise and empires fall, I've seen things that provoke fear and wonder, and if there's one thing i know in my travels, its that time can be rewritten, and that there is always a chance. Besides I know what you and your friends can do to protect others. And I know that they will be with you even in the face of the end of time itself."

The purple unicorn wiped her tear "Thanks Doctor." She was about to leave the Library

"Oh by the way." He took out the book he borrowed a few days back. "I finished reading the book, charming piece of lore you got there. Also River apparently bought some [Daring Do] books for you and your friend before that party."

Twilight levitated the book and left the room with a small smile on her face.

Mirach ⚜ Shadows of Doubt

TARDIS 5:02 AM 6/18/2012

The Doctor was inside his ship tracking the "blood chronosteel" as he called the alloy when Amy and Rory came in to talk to the Time Lord.

"I know what you are gonna say Pond," He said. "And the answer is still no. It's too dangerous."

"I understand Doctor," She said. "But I want to know why."

"You know why Amelia," He said. "The Girl who Waited, The Last Centurion, You know you were not my first companions. But you also known I have done over the years I've traveled with them."

"Yeah I've read your files." She said.

"Uh, what files?" Rory said.

"Show me all visual records of previous TARDIS inhabitants from Rose Tyler onwards." The Doctor commanded

A holographic screen then appeared. The first image was a blond teenager with average length hair hair.

"I'm gonna tell you something that i had hoped not to tell anyone about," He said. "My companions and how I had changed them."

River Song then appeared from one of the halls and said "Ooh looking up the archives huh." She then joined the other 3 people in the control room.

"Access video file [Bad Wolf.]" The screen then showed the blond teen glowing and then disintegrating some nearby Daleks.

"What happened?" Amy said.

"Rose, she looked into the heart of the TARDIS," The Doctor said with regret. the image then showed a man with black hair in leather clothing walk up to the girl and kissed her.

"That's you isn't it?" Rory said.

"Yeah," He said. "The force of the time stream had started the regeneration process. Access video file [Alternate Universe 1.]"

The screen then depicts a spiky-haired man with a brown suit and tie, and the same teenager with her two parents on a beach.

"That was taken from a parallel universe, I've named it after her farther who was alive here," Rory and Amy then stared at the man in the tweed jacket. "It's complicated." Responded the Doctor.

"Access the next profile, and video file [Saxon's demise.]" The Doctor said.

The holographic screen then depicts an short, bald man with a taller man with a black suit and tie. another screen also depict a black teenager.

"That man in the suit is the Doctor right?" Rory said.

"No," River said "The man in the cage is the Doctor, The other one his arch-rival the Master."

A black woman had entered the ship a small conversation was had and then the small figure in the cage was transformed back to the Doctor as last seen in the last video.

"Martha Jones is a good woman, She and I went on many adventures, That clip you saw came from a year that never came to pass. A year where the Master had complete and total control of Earth."

"So what happens after that?" Amy said.

"Well, She then joined UNIT afterwards and then became an alien bounty hunter after that. You know in retrospect she got off lightly."

River then said "You call this lightly?"

"Compared to what happens next, yes." Said the Doctor. "Access The next profile and video files [DoctorDonna,] [Metacrisis,] and [Reunion.]"

The first screen then changed to depict another redheaded woman with mismatched eyes. The second screen depicted her with the tenth Doctor and the woman in the video stopping a detonation.

"How did that happen?" Rory said.

"River's not the only Time Lord/Human hybrid nor was she the first." The Doctor said.

Two other screens then appeared. The first of which depicted Donna with a jar containing a severed hand. The other screen depicted not one but two of the tenth Doctor, as well as the ginger genius and Rose Tyler.

"The first time me and Rose went to that universe," said the saddened Time Lord. "It was an accident caused by a cosmic flare, The second time i had to leave her behind; The Daleks and that world's version of the Cybermen were invading this dimension, This is the third and final time; That detonation you saw Donna Noble prevent was for a Reality Bomb. A machine capable of erasing all of creation from all universes."

"But What happened to Donna?" Amy said.

The Doctor said "Ah yes what happened indeed Pond. Unlike little Melody here, Donna was not conceived in the vortex, She had gained the essence of a Time Lord by being here when the Metacrisis started. that's also where my double came from by the way. Because of the circumstances Donna Noble was unable to stay who she was, I had to erase all memory she had of me and out time together, or else the information will kill her. Now do you understand why I dropped you off after our encounter with the Minotaur? You had already lost your parents, your husband, and your daughter over several timelines"

"But Doctor," Amy said "It's because of you that we managed to get them back."

"Only by the skin of my teeth Amy. Know that there is a chance, there is always a chance that any of you could die."

The four in the control room had fell silent for a minute.

"I know that you three will be there for me even in the darkest hour. But I can't let you come without knowing the risks involved."

"Doctor!" Rory said. "Me and my wife will go to the ends of the universe with you if it means we can help save both."

"Agreed, You don't have to be alone Doctor." Amy said.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" he said.

River, Rory, and Amy nodded their heads in agreement.

"Alright." Said the Doctor "Pack your things everyone."

The Pond-Willams had left the time machine to gather their stuff.

TARDIS 6:07 AM

Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Rarity was talking about what had happened that Friday. The rainbow-maned pegasus was reading one of the books River had picked up before they left Equestria

"OK, So he thinks this [cronosteel] can tear apart the time stream if not collected in time right?" She said. "We are in a Time Machine right, what's stopping him from going back and picking up the metal?"

"We don't know where that ore is." Applejack said. Pinkie Pie and Flutteshy had just entered the Library.

"And besides even if we did know where and when it is," Rarity said. "He said that he can't just go out and get."

"I don't know, He claims to be a doctor but what kind vet, psychiatrist, nurse?"

"Whatever." Rainbow Dash said.

"Listen sugarcube," Applejack said. "That man is the only one we that knows what is going on and how to get Equestria back to normal."

"I know that," Rainbow Dash was pawing at the floor. "But that doesn't mean I have to like it."

"Well i know how to turn that frown upside-down Dashie," Pinkie then brought out her cannon and proceeded to shoot a nearby table. Twilight Sparkle was walking in when the cake batter shot from the cannon hit her face. The cyan pegasus snickered a bit.

"Oops sorry Twilight." She then licked the batter off the purple unicorn's unamused face. Pinkie was cleaning off Twilight's face.

"So what are your though on this so-called [Doctor?]" Rainbow Dash said.

"Oh well I..." Twilight said when they heard some a nearby crash. The six friends then went to investigate.

Meanwhile River Song was helping Rory move some of their things onto the TARDIS when Rory accidentally dropped the trunk. The Doctor was busy programming the blue box to add extra rooms to accommodate the guests. Twilight and her friends went to the control room to check out what had happened.

"What the hay happened?" Rainbow Dash said as she witnessed some clothes coming out of the trunk.

"Oh nothing," Rory said who was picking up the clothes. "We just had dropped a few things."

"I'm gonna need to catch up with Pond, Rory can you keep an eye on things?" The Doctor requested.

"What?" Rory said. But the Doctor left the nurse alone with his daughter and the 12 ponies on board the TARDIS.

"Oh My Gosh. I can't believe you're coming with us." Pinkie Pie then bounced over the control room. "Isn't this great, I know it's great, this is gonna be the best road trip ever."

'Yeah, great.' thought the nurse as he just stood there surprised.

Leadworth 7:06 AM

The Doctor was catching up with Amy who was just about to enter the store.

"Doctor what are you doing here?" Amy said.

"Well, I just came to buy a couple things before we go."

"Or course you are. Where's Rory?"

"I asked him to keep an eye on the TARDIS while I'm gone."

"OK i see."

The Time Lord and ginger girl had entered the building. It was an intricate building with shelves spanning a hundred yards. They pick up some items and made their way to the cashier. He was a gruff and strange looking man. He checked out the items.

"Ok then so you are paying for: 6 packs of apple seeds, 7 boxes of sugar cubes, 11 lbs of oats, a fez, some more tree seeds, Salt, and some batter mix." said the clerk.

"Yeah, that's right why do you ask?" Amy said.

"Because I haven't met a customer with enough horses to justify this much. How many are you two taking care of." said the clerk.

"About 12 I think." The Doctor said.

"12!" the cashier was baffled. "Are you sure? because I don't think that is enough." He reached for the microphone "Maggie! get some boxes of sugar-cubes, and salt over to line 11 pronto." A young black woman had then appeared with the stuff described here. Any and the Doctor are confused by the clerk's requests "Trust me 12 horses are gonna be a challenge for you 2."

"You don't know the half of it." He then flashed a wallet with a blank card on it and said "Just make it all out to John Smith and Amy Williams please."

"OK. That will be 67 pounds for the oats and seeds, 11 pounds for the sugar, and 20 pounds for the fez."

Amy then paid for the items and the two left for the store.

Leadworth 12:00 Noon

Flitter and Cloudchaser was peeking through the forest nearby the stone circle. Lyra and Bonbon was talking about the turn of events. Ditzy and Minty was talking about their jobs. Sirius had returned to the circle. The cloaked woman then activated the ship. The ponies then entered the circle and the rings emerged from the ground. Soon the ship and its passengers vanished.

"Aww," Lyra said. "I wanted to see the humans more."

"We can't stay here, We need to find the chronosteel."

"Chronosteel?" Bonbon said. Sirius than explained about the meteor shower from yesterday and the "meteors" that composed it.

"So chronosteel is some time altering metal?" Minty said.

"Correct," She then handed out pony shaped cloaks to the 6 ponies on the ship.

Lyra's cloak had the word "Vega" written on a small tag on the left side. the green unicorn said "Woah, awesome." and put on the cloak.

Bonbon's cloak had the word "Altair" in the same place as Lyra's . She put hers on and said "Ok a bit weird but thanks."

Cloudchaser's and Flitter's cloaks read "Alioth" and "Polaris" are on the right side of the cloak. both pegasi complimented the cloak's style and put them on.

Ditzy's cloak read on the right "Ankaa" and Minty's said "Eltanin" the last of the ponies on the ship put on these cloaks.

"These cloaks have built in perception filters," said Sirius. "They will allow some extent of inconspicuousness." she then turned around an went to the ship's controls. On the back was a tag that read "Sirius."

Lyra said "Why the tags?"

"Those tags are your code-names. we must keep our identities a secret from everyone for now." said The still cloaked woman.

"Dare I ask why?" Bonbon said.

"There are enemies: Aliens that take all memory of every encounter with them, monsters that try to kill off all life but themselves, robots that try to erase individuality and emotion." Sirius said. "We must try to help the Doctor and his companions from the shadows."

"I see," Minty said. "How 'bout a team name?"

"I love the sound of Pleiades." Ditzy said.

"Perfect." The green earth pony said.

"I'm pretty sure the goal here is to remain inconspicuous." Bonbon deadpanned. "Besides those sound like names for stars that don't fit in these constellations."

"So?" Minty said.

"OK fine name the secret group why don't ya?" Bonbon said.

While the 6 ponies were discussing the "name" Sirius started the ship and flew the ship out of the town.

TARDIS 3:00 PM

The Doctor and Amy had just returned from getting the groceries. They saw The Cutie mark Crusaders chasing a very tired Rory. A blip was registering on the TARDIS controls.

"Hah-ha," he said. "Looks like we found our first deposit." He then examined the coordinates. "Lets see now."

"What's going on?" Twilight said as the other 9 ponies and River had emerged form various hallways.

"We found some chronosteel." Said the madman with a box. He then took the controls and flew the TARDIS. The blue box then started to blink out for a few moments until it vanished.

Almach ⚜ Age of Gods

Antikythera 4:00 PM 100 B.C.

The TARDIS had materialized in front of a building overlooking The Aegean Sea. The stone building had some pillars holding a triangular shaped roof.

"Ah yes Ancient Greece," The Doctor said. "A marvelous time to start, no?"

The other passengers had exited the blue box. "I really think I should had brought my armor." Rory said.

"That's for Rome Rory." said the Time Lord.

Rainbow Dash flew out of the box and said "OK why are we in this place?"

"We are looking for chronosteel, remember?" He responded.

The other ponies were awestruck by the architecture. The cyan pegasus though it looked like her home in the clouds. Applejack wasn't that impressed however.

"So where is this chronosteel?" Twilight said.

"Good question, guess we start looking." The Doctor said

The 16 time-travelers then went to a nearby city to explore.

Antikythera 5:00 PM

The time-travelers went to a nearby city. Most of the Greeks were astonished by the pegasi's presence and the odd clothes, but most kept quiet. The Doctor and his group walked up to a nearby temple. The Doctor said "Try to keep a low profile, they're not used to small, talking, winged, horned, or small ponies."

"Greetings travelers," said one of the men. He was wearing a white tunic and a metal headband. "I am Andros king of Antikythera. And you are?"

"Oh um I'm John Smith." The Doctor who then introduces his companions afterwards.

"Travelers," King Andros said. "You're not from around here are you."

"Ah no. We came to this island looking for something."

"I see. And what in Zeus' name are you looking for."

"See, It's a rare mineral. Probably fell from the sky."

"I see. Guards," the King commanded. "Prepare the guest chambers for the Doctor and his fellow travelers."

"What about the steeds, My lord?" a guard said.

"What did you say?" Rainbow Dash caught the guard off-guard. Applejack grabbed her by the tail again. Twilight said "Rainbow!"

"They're not steeds," The Doctor said. "They're special."

The king noticed their unlike other horses and said "Agreed! These are clearly special indeed. I believe that as guests of ours they should have the same treatment as John Smith."

The guards, still a little stunned from Rainbow Dash's outburst, escorted them to some guest chambers.

"You are not like the rest of the Greek kings, are you?" The Doctor said.

"I shall take you to our treasures John Smith."

"Oh please, Call me the Doctor."

The king and the Doctor then exited the throne room.

Antikythera 6:00 PM

The Doctor and King Andros had entered a small chamber. It had a marble bull statue, a statue of Hercules, a bronze lyre, three bronze spheres, and several others. In the center of the room was three chrome-like spheres and a small box. the box was adorned by the signs of the Zodiac and had two cranks and appeared to have 72 gears inside. Andros said "I'm going to leave my island soon, Greece depends on it."

"I've heard," The Doctor said. "The Roman Empire had taken most of Greece by now."

"Indeed." Said the king. "A ship staffed by 300 spartan warriors is coming to pick me up. To take me to Rome to attempt peace negotiations."

"I see, but why are you telling me this?" said the Time Lord.

"My ancestor, Diomedes. Had found the metal you see before you. Before he went to siege Troy a woman in a black cloak appeared to him. She said that one day a wiseman will come for the steel of Chronos." the king said whilst looking to the metal spheres. Upon closer inspection The Doctor had noticed that the metal spheres had the stars of the constellations Pegasus, Andromeda, and Equuleus on each sphere. The king continued "She said that until he arrives that he must keep it safe. He hid it in this chamber before heading for Troy. When it fell he moved elsewhere and passed the location of the sacred metal to his wife and King Daunus's daughter. After a few generations some of his descendants had came back to Greece. To this island and to Argos."

"I get it, You were descended from two kings, no wonder they let you and you family take the throne. But how did you know about this?"

The king continued "When Diomedes passed on the location, he passed on the story of the encounter with the Cloaked Woman in secret with his wife. Lest he be ridiculed like the prophet Cassandra. She in turn passed the secret to their children and they passed it on to their children and so on and so forth."

"So when's the ship coming?"

"Tomorrow, On that day will I give you the steel of Chronos. But for now I have another gift for you Doctor."

The king then lifted the small box with the gears. He then said "Doctor. He who travel through time. He who had seen the cascades of Medusa. Do you know what this is?"

"Yes i know what that is, It's like a compass, but without the magnets, needle or anything compass-like at all."

"This was invented by my grandfather and was kept as much a secret as the steel until the design was perfected by me and my farther. This device lets you tell time by showing you where the sun, the moon, and the planets are. There are only a handful in existence crafted by my farther and myself. I want you to have this one."

"But why?" He said.

Andros said "I had started on this the day of my correlation, and finished the day I found this chamber. I think this will help you find the rest of sacred metal."

The Doctor was baffled. "You think that this will help me track the chronosteel? But this metal is scattered throughout all space and time."

"I put this invention with the metal because I think that the two are connected." The king of Antikythera said. "Ever since I found the metal I've been having dreams. Dreams of souls tormented, these souls were lost in the stars never ascending to Olympus or falling to Tartarus. And I think you know what had happened to them."

"I understand, I will try my best to take care of them."

"Good," the wise king said. "Now you need some rest. You have a big day ahead." Andros then handed the Doctor the machine.

They then left the chamber and the Time Lord went to his guest room.

??? ??:00

The woman with the eye-patch and some Silents had just entered a spaceship.There they found the Daleks.

"Well gentlemen it looks like we found some Daleks huh?" said the eye-patched lady.

"What Is Your Business Here." said one of the Daleks. It pointed it plunger arm to the woman. "You Will Be EX-TER-MIN-ATED."

"Well," said the woman. "How rude, and here I thought you want to know of the chronosteel."

"What Chronosteel?" said the Dalek. It's eye-stalk was glaring at her.

"Blood Chronosteel. Chronosteel with the power to defeat your enemies." She then handed them a thumb-drive "Just look up the contents of this." She and the Silents vanished.

The Daleks having no memory of them inserted the storage unit and started reading the contents.

"Set Up A Temporal Shift." Said one of the Daleks. "We Are Going To Find ULTIMATE POWER!"

The spaceship then entered the time vortex.

Adhil ⚜ Siege of the Daleks

Antikythera 3:00 AM 100 B.C.

The Doctor and River Song were walking down a corridor when they saw Amy and Rory.

"Did you get a good night's sleep?" The Doctor said.

Rory said "Yes"

"By the way Doctor, did you visit Pompeii?" Amy said,

"Yes, I did visit Pompeii. No, it is not Greek." He answered.

"By the way," River said. "What in the name of sanity is that contraption?"

"Oh this?" said the Doctor holding the mechanism he received yesterday. "This is what's known as an [Antikythera mechanism.] I'll tell you about it later."

"OK," Amelia said "We should probably get the ponies first."

"Agreed." The Doctor and his human companions went to pick up his pony companions.

Antikythera 3:10 AM

"Isn't this cool?" Pinkie Pie was bouncing on her bed. She and Toola Roola had to share a room.

"Uh, I guess?" the multicolored-maned pink unicorn said.

Rarity, Sweetie Belle, and Cheerilee had entered the chamber.

"Oh hello darlings," she said. Cheerilee took Toola Roola outside while the other 3 were talking inside.

"So," the schoolteacher said. "How are things?"

"Things are fine," the artist answered. "I mean you know, aside from being trapped in another universe."

"I see." Cheerilee sighed "Remember how we met each other and Starsong?"

"Yes," Toola Roola. "I remember. We were visiting Ponyville when me met you."

"And how we used to play together all the time when we were fillies?"

"Yeah we used to play all sorts of games." Toola Roola giggled "I still remember kicking that ball almost all the way across the street. Those were the days."

"Yeah." Cheerilee said. "And then when you went back to Manehatten, how I begged my parents to let me come with you?"

"Yeah. You had just graduated from elementary school. That was before you found your cutie mark right?"

"Yes,"

"I gotta say you looked ridiculous with that mane back then." The pink unicorn chuckled. "Not that I could've looked any better."

"Yeah," Cheerilee then smiled. Rarity had just ran out of the room with a mustache painted on her face. She washed off the paint nearby.

The Doctor had just walked and said "Well we have to see the king off." Pinkie Pie and Sweetie Belle had heard his voice and exited the chamber. The group went to pick up the other ponies.

Antikythera 7:00 AM

The Doctor had just gathered his companions and they were headed to the harbor of Potamos. There they saw King Andros. They also saw the statues the Doctor had seen yesterday. A ship had came in. The ship was black with golden trimmings. On the hull it said "ΟΔΥΣΣΕΙΑ"

"Are you ready Doctor?" The king said.

The madman with a box nodded. The king handed him the chronosteel. The Doctor had touched the spheres. he had heard screams and and moans from within. He put the spheres in his jacket pocket.

The Doctor said "Good Luck on your travels your highness."

"You too." Andros was getting ready to board the ship when suddenly a messenger had appeared and said "My liege. The island is under attack."

"What do you mean?" Andros said. The group went back to the town. there they saw aliens in armor shaped like pepper-pots.

'Oh No.' The Doctor thought.

"What do you mean uh oh?" Andros said as he looks at the aliens slay his kingdom. "What are these things. Demons from Tartarus?"

"Demons from Skaro." He whispered. "They're called Daleks."

"OK Professor," Applejack said. "Why are they here?"

"Doctor," Amy said. "Do you think...?"

"Oh I'm sure of it Pond." He answered. "They must want the chronosteel."

"But how did they even know?" Twilight said.

"I don't know." The Doctor siad.

"Well we can't let them just have it!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

The Doctor said "You can't even hope to stop them. Their armor is meant to be indestructible we must get back to the TARDIS."

"But why must you flee Doctor?" Andros said. "Surely we can reason with them."

"Believe me Andros, I've tried to reason with them. But they won't listen. The Daleks are here for one purpose one one purpose only; The extermination and extinction of all non-Dalek life in the universe."

Fluttershy then noticed one of the aliens coming near their location. She said "Uhh guys?"

"Not now Fluttershy." Rainbow Dash said.

"But...umm." She was speaking quietly. The Doctor had noticed and saw the monster as he moves closer.

"Time to go." The Doctor whispered.

King Andros said "You will go, I'll fight. I've rather my people be enslaved by Romans then executed by these monsters." He headed beck to the ship.

"Andros wait!" The Dalek heard the doctor's voice. A few Daleks then circled the group.

The Doctor "Well, This is awkward."

"Doctor?" one Dalek said. "You Should Be Dead!"

"EX-TER-MIN-ATE! EX-TER-MIN-ATE!" the others chanted.

The Doctor and his friends then ran as far as they could go. They took a path to the left but There were Daleks on the other end. they then ran right, but there were Daleks there too. Eventually after try to stay alive and evade them the Doctor and his 15 companions hid in an empty cellar.

Antikythera 7:35 AM

The cellar they are in was dank and musty, there were shelves with bronze spheres everywhere. The Doctor had peeked outside. There was a Dalek outside. The Time Lord told the others to be quiet. The Dalek looked around. Another Dalek came and said "Signal Lost, The Chronosteel Is Not Here." Both Daleks left afterwards.

The Doctor then focused on the chrome almost liquid spheres. He then took his sonic screwdriver and 3 of the bronze spheres.

"Um what are you doing?" Toola Roola whispered.

The Doctor said "The chronosteel's emitting a sort of frequency, I'm trying to transfer it to these spheres."

"That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard." Rainbow Dash said.

"He has done things more ludicrous then this." River Song said.

"The Doctor had finished tinkering with the bronze spheres and said "All right then. Twilight? Rarity? Toola Roola?"

The three unicorns replied "Yes?"

"I need you to take one piece of chronosteel each." Said the Doctor. The unicorns then levitated their piece of the chronosteel. The madman then said "Alright, now then we will need to split into 3 teams: Twilight, Rory, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Starsong will be team A, Rarity, River, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy will be team B, Toola Roola, Amy, Cheerilee, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo will be team C. Your goal is to get to the TARDIS. River will pilot it when everyone's there." He then gave River his sonic screwdriver and the mechanism he got yesterday.

"Doctor what are you doing?" River said.

"I need an EMP River," He whispered. "I know you got one from before we went to Equestria. When everyone else is on board, take the TARDIS out of sync for until I give the signal."

The Doctor's wife then handed him a small sphere from her pocket. He took the small sphere and the bronze spheres and put them in his pockets and said "The signal the Daleks are tracking are unique in that they can only be emitted by the chronosteel in the presence of another. You are to keep them apart until you get to the TARDIS."

"And what are you going to do while we risk our lives?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Risk my life of course." Said the Doctor. "Now team A will go north, Team B will go southwest, and Team C will go southeast."

"Doctor you can't be serious?" Rory said.

"Indeed I am Rory. Geronimo!" The Doctor opened the door and ran out. The rest of the group then went their separate paths as they try to avoid the Daleks.

Ross ⚜ Ballad of Screams

Antikythera 8:00 AM 100 B.C.

The Daleks were wreaking havoc around the island, slaughtering everyone in sight. "The Chronosteel Has Been Detected!" one of them said. "Track The Metal And EX-TER-MIN-ATE Who Has It." 90% of the aliens had left. Twilight Sparkle and Rory were peeking from behind a corner. They saw the aliens separating and the survivors being evacuated by Greek solderers.

"Ok," Twilight said. "We can go now."

The group consisting of Twilight, Rory, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Starsong moved into the streets and ran as fast as they could.

Pinkie's tail started to twitch. And the pink earth pony said "Wait!" The group stopped. and then debris fell onto the path in front of them, blocking the path.

"What happened?" Both Rory and Starsong were in shock at the precognition and twitchy tail. Pinkie Pie explained her Pinkie Sense to the human nurse and violet pegasus. The group then looked for another pathway. They found a path to the left and ran as fast as they could. When they reached the end they saw a Dalek, and the Dalek saw them.

The Dalek said "EX-TER-MIN-ATE." The group then ran up a path to the left with the alien chasing them. They were at a dead end when Applejack noticed some rope. The orange earth pony then picked up the rope and asked the others to pick up a rope while she made a lasso of hers.

When the Dalek came to the end of the pathway. he saw no one there and then. Applejack threw her lasso at the alien and tied the other end of the rope to a column. The others did the same and The alien was trapped for now. The group escaped the Dalek and exited the town soon after.

Antikythera 8:10 AM

Rarity, River, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy made it out of the town unscathed. The group of four had stopped.

"Ok," the rainbow-maned mare said. "Where do we have to go next?"

The half Time-Lady then examined her surroundings and said "We have to go through this field."

The foursome then went ahead north by northeast on a barren field. Corpses were every where.

Rarity was concentrating on levitating the chronosteel.

"Great," She said. "And I just had my hooves done."

"Will you forget about your hooves until we get to the TARDIS?" Rainbow Dash said.

While the two ponies were bickering Fluttershy had noticed a flock of birds nearby. The birds were medium-sized and had black wings. The pegasus went to pet the birds.

Rainbow Dash and Rarity heard something and stopped arguing. A tall shape was seen on a horizon. It looked like a Pepper shaker. River had noticed and took a closer look.

"Run!" River yelled. The shape noticed and began moving closer. The falcons were scared off. And the group ran as far as they could, until they saw a familiar blue box perched on the cliff. Nearby they saw some other figures approaching the TARDIS. It was Twilight's group.

The Dalek was moving closer. Both Twilight's and River's group went in the TARDIS but Fluttershy tripped and was left behind. The alien had appeared in front of the yellow pegasus. She looked at the death and destruction around her.

"How could you?" Fluttershy said.

"How Could I What!?" the Dalek responded.

"How could you even think that the slaughter of innocent being was ever a good idea?" She said as she stared into the eye stalk of the alien. The Dalek was backing up while Fluttershy was stepped forward.

She then said "And what crimes were they guilty of? What was so bad that you would want to destroy them huh?"

"Their Existence Itself Is A Crime To Us." The Dalek was sounding a little nervous but was gaing confidence with each word. "We Are The Superior Beings. They Are The Mongrels. We Will EX-TER-MIN-ATE Them." His gun-stick began to glow. "And I Will EX-TER-MIN-ATE You!"

Now Fluttershy was the one feeling scared. She began to escape and closed her eyes. A pinkish aura began to envelope the pegasus as the Dalek fired. The laser bounced off the aura and hit the alien. When she opened her eyes the Dalek was gone and all that's was left of him was smoke. Twilight went up to her friend.

"Fluttershy, are you ok?" She said.

"I'm fine Twilight, Thanks." The two ponies then entered the TARDIS with the rest of the group following. When everyone was inside the blue box vanished.

Antikythera 8:20 AM

Amy, Toola Roola, Cheerilee and the Cutie Mark Crusaders were running as fast as they can. It started to rain. The Daleks were chasing them. They were cornered by the aliens.

The aliens were about to fire. until...

"Daleks! Get off my kingdom!" A large group of warriors armed with spears and shields had stopped in front of the aliens. Among them was King Andros wielding a trident.

"And Who Are You?" one of the Daleks said.

"I am King Andros. Desendant of King Daunus, King of the Daunians and Diomedes, one of the warriors who fought with Achilles for the destruction of the city of Troy. And I ask you one more time; Leave this island at one or your lives are forfeit to Hades." Lightning struck as he finished his sentence.

Meanwhile Cheerilee had said "How are we gonna get out of this?" Amy had looked and say that the others were frightened.

"Be patient." Amy said.

"You Think You Can Stop Us?" One of the aliens boasted. "Many Have Tried To Wipe Us Out Of Time And Space! None Had Succeeded, And All But one Have Been EX-TER-MIN-ATED." The Daleks were laughing at Andros' threat.

"Aye, You power is great, But you still have a weakness more glaring then the heel of my ancestor's ally Achilles."

"And What Is That?" a Dalek said.

"Even with all you power, You will still need to see. Our spears should be able to pierce your eyes and you shall be as blind as Polyphemus. I'll ask you one more time What is your answer?"

"We Will Not Surrender to The Likes Of You!" another Dalek shoulted.

"Then you leave me no choice," Andros then slammed his trident on the ground. The Lightning then struck again. He then shouted "DALEKS! PREPARE YOUR WILL AND SAY YOUR PRAYERS, FOR TONIGHT. YOU ROT. IN HELL!" Andros and his army of 300 Spartans then charged at the alien hoard. The Daleks having paid no attention to Amy or the ponies since King Andros had entered the fray, had charged ahead.

Meanwhile Any's group had used the opportunity to escape. The group had entered the port where the ship "Odyssey" was. There they saw a blue box appear. The door opened to reveal that the other groups had made it back alive.

Amy's group had entered the box, and again it vanished.

Antikythera 8:30 AM

The Doctor was bust running around the island. Trying to attract as many Daleks as possible. The Time Lord was being chased by a battalion of 67 Daleks as a result.

The Daleks chanted "EX-TER-MIN-ATE! EX-TER-MIN-ATE!" The Doctor had entered a battle field. there he saw King Andros and an army of Spartans battle what's left the the Daleks. The warriors had managed to kill the Daleks by stabbing the eye.stalk with their spears. The Doctor caught with king Andros who was impaling eye stalk after eye stalk. But the Spartans were suffering casualties from the Daleks as well. The small army went down to 75.

"What are you doing here?" He said. "You shouldn't be here Doctor."

"Nether should you you highness," The Doctor answered. "What happened to your people?"

"I evacuated them to the Odyssey. And I told you, i will fight to my last breath Doctor."

Soon the king and the Doctor were all that's left of those that defied the Daleks. They were surrounded and vastly outnumbered by the hoard of aliens.

One of them said "Surrender The Chronosteel Now."

"Ok," The Doctor then took out the bronze spheres and placed them down. A Dalek examined the spheres, and them destroyed them, shouting "These Are Not The Chronosteel. What Have You Done To The Chronosteel?"

"I'm glad you asked. I've hid it of course."

The Daleks then pointed their guns at their archenemy.

"Ah but before you go and kill me, I thought you should know what you are going to hit."

"Is That An..." said a Dalek.

"...Portable Electromagnetic Pulse generator. River picked it up from when we went to stop the Cybermen for our 11th date. This machine is capable of frying anything electronic within a radius of 6 miles. Normally that would be a problem, but since we are in Ancient Greece where there's no technology to affect around here except in your armor. If you even shoot anywhere near it, it will go off and fry your systems. You'll be reduced to screaming little monsters inside metal suits that won't even budge."

The Daleks were began to show signs of fear. One of them had said "What Are You? You Should Have Been Dead!"

"Oh little old me?" The Doctor went to toward the Daek who asked him that question. "Not much except the one who survived the Time War, a war in which you waged with the Time Lords, I was the the one who kicked your sorry cans a every time you wished to kill off entire species. Satellite 5, London, Manhattan, and even inside the Medusa Cascade. All your plans there met a wonderful failure at genocide because of me. What am I you asked? I guess you could say a ghost. One who will haunt you no matter where you go, no matter WHEN you go. I'll be there to foil your plans. And doesn't that scare you?"

After a moment of silence the aliens had retreated.

"Leave this place at once. And know that you will never destroy life in the universe because I. Will. Stop. You!" He shouted. The aliens did as they were told and left the island.

Antkythera 10:00 AM

The Doctor and King Andros then went to the Odyssey. On the port they had a small conversation.

The Ioctor said "So what are you gonna do about the island?"

"I will first head on over to Athens." Andros said. "I will tell them of the fate of my island. They will send help. And then, i will continue as planned to negotiate peace talks with Rome."

"I see, Well take care and watch out for Scylla, Charybdis, and icebergs would you?"

"Very well.But if I may ask, where is your ship, the blue box?"

"Oh well the ship is still here," The Doctor snapped his fingers. The TARDIS then materialized in front of him. "See?"

"I see," Andros said. "By the way, the cloaked woman left another message for you,"

"Really, What is it?" The Doctor said.

"She told my ancestor that if we saw you to give you the following message: Caveo Diabolus ex Vinco."

The king and the Doctor bid each other farewell and went aboard their respective ships. Meanwhile Sirius was watching from a distance as the TARDIS disappeared and the Odyssey sailed away.

She said "Mum, dad, Tony, Doctor, I'll make things right again, I promise." and vanished.

Odyssey 10:11 AM

King Andros was looking at his treasures as the ship's treasure room. There he saw Several silents. With then came an eye-patched woman. One of the aliens was carrying a bomb of sorts.

"Hello there [your highness,]" she said. "You really should had just left the Daleks take the chronosteel."

"W-Who are you?"

"The last thing you and this ship will ever see." she said. "And just because I know you won't survive this or even remember it I would like to tell you that You kingdom will fall, Greece will fall, Silence will fall." She and the aliens vanished leaving behind a bomb. Andros had forgotten about this encounter and took a look at the device. The bomb explodes and the Odyssey sank to the bottom of the sea.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had just placed the chronosteel inside a special room. The room was pitch black, with the only light being from the entrance and the chronosteel itself. The companions had walked in on the Time Lord.

"What are you doing?" Twilight said.

The Doctor was a little shocked to see them here. He said "I'm placing the chronosteel in a dwarf star alloy chamber."

"Dare I ask why?" Rainbow Dash said.

The Doctor responded "Well first off, the dwarf star alloy will prevent anything from exiting or entering. Sound, ultrasound, radiation, and any signal will not be able to enter or escape here with entering this door."

"But why?" Rory said. "Doctor what's going on?"

"Remember what i said about the chronosteel?" He said. "That my theory was that the ponies might be transmutated to this form?"

"Yeah," Pinkie Pie said. "You said their minds and souls were trapped here right?"

"Well, It appears that the chronosteel or rather the pieces thereof are the populace of Equestria. Body, mind, and soul. The latter two are trapped in a coalescence of time and space made from the former."

"Do you know anything else professor?" Applejack said.

The Time Lord said "I know one thing for sure, That frequency the chronosteel emits? That's the screams of the ponies and other beings trapped inside. Screams so loud they transcend time itself. An wails so powerful they threaten to destroy both universes."

The ponies were understandably horrified at these revelations. River was also scared but to a lesser extent. Amy and Rory on the other hand may be the most shocked of the bunch.

"Is there anything we can do?" Rarity said.

"Right now our best bet is to find the other 85 pieces of chronosteel. That should stop the whole [destroy all reality] part at least, from there I'll see what i can do to restore them back to their original forms." The Doctor throws the 3 pieces up into the air and they embed themselves to the ceiling of the dwarf star alloy. The ceiling's now bears an image of the Andromeda, Pegasus, and Equuleus constellations in the same place the actual stars would be in the night sky.

The Time Lord and his companions had exited the room. The Doctor stayed behind. He looked at the mechanism and noticed that the cranks started to turn on their own. The gears were turning and the wheel with the zodiac signs also turned. A needle on one of the wheel now points to the sign of Aries (♈). The cranks then stopped in place. The Doctor then leaves the room. hoping to study the mechanism.

Sheratan ♈ Mutant's Birth

Beltsville 3:10 PM 5/07/1999

Micheal had entered a laboratory inside the building. The lab had some grass patches and various goats and rams. He said "Hello Gabriel, Raphael."

"Hello professor Micheal." Gabriel took off a mirror and looked at her blond hair. "So what brings you here at this time?" She then took out a drink.

Micheal went to the back of the room and said "Well Gabriel, We have a guest, calls himself the Doctor."

Gabriel spit out her drink. She said "Wait, THE Doctor?"

"You sure that guy's isn't pulling your leg?" Gabriel said.

"I'm pretty sure that's him," Micheal said. "And he's not alone, he brought some guests with him."

Gabriel said "Did you tell him that we are from UNIT's agricultural division?"

"Why is he here?" Raphael said. He noticed something on his brown skin.

"No I haven't," Micheal said "And he wants the metal we found in the meteor from last week. By the way where are Uriel and the others?"

"Uriel's in the fields, studying the effects of the metal. Sariel, Raguel, and Jerahmeel are in the radiation labs." Raphael said.

"Right then," Micheal took the other two scientists to the room where he left the Doctor and companions.

Beltsville 3:30 PM

Micheal, Raphael, and Gabriel knocked on the door before entering. They saw the Doctor along with a red-headed woman, her husband, blond curly-haired woman, and 6 unusual little ponies.

"Ah hello," The Doctor said. "And who are they?"

"Gabriel, and Raphael." Micheal introduced his two fellow scientists.

"Ah. Well I'm John Smith, And this is Amy Pond, Rory Williams, and River Song."

"What about the ponies?" Raphael was looking at Pinkie Pie bouncing around

"Oh," the madman looked to his equine companions and back to the scientists. "Well... um... you see..."

"Doctor I feel we should inform you that we are with UNIT's Agricultural division." Gabriel said. "We already know about your time with UNIT."

"Ok The well..." before the Doctor could finish, Pinkie bounced in front of Raphael.

"Hi I'm Pinkie Pie," she said. "And this Twilight, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Fluttershy. Oh we are gonna have a good time. With cake, and ice cream..." she rambled on and on.

"By the way," Twilight said. "Do you know where the meteors are?"

Micheal just realized something. "Right, metal, Sariel. I'll go fetch her."

"I'll go with you." the Doctor said.

"Me too." Both Micheal, River and the Doctor left the room. The rest of them stayed behind to chat.

Beltsville 3:45 PM

The Doctor, Micheal, and River Song had opened a door with hazard symbols on it there they saw Uriel. He had a ram with him and was holding 2 metal spheres in his hands. The spheres had the constellations of Cassiopeia, and Perseus on them.

"Uriel," Micheal said. "Where's Sariel?"

"Well Micheal," said the orange-haired man. "He Raguel and Jerahmeel are near the gamma reactors. Wait who are they?"

"I'm the Doctor, and this is River Song." the Doctor introduced. "We're here for these metal spheres you have."

"Fine by me." Uriel then handed them the chronosteel pieces.

"Thanks. Now Micheal, didn't you say that there are 3 of them?" The doctor siad.

"Why yes I did." Micheal said. "Is the last piece still with Sariel?"

"Yes, she told me that Jerahmeel needed one of the pieces and handed me the rest."

"I see." River said.

"Well," the Doctor said. "I'll go put these back in the TARDIS. River, go back to the meeting room. Micheal, Uriel can you find your colleagues and get back the chronosteel?"

"Chronosteel?" Uriel stroked his orange hair in confusion.

"The metal from the meteors." The Time Lord said.

"Sure Doctor," Micheal said. "but why?"

"It's important that we get back all the pieces of chronosteel scattered throughout time and space. The safety of the universe depends on it."

"I see Doctor." Uriel said.

"Also can I have some communication devices?" the madman said.

"I have 3 if you want to use them." Micheal then handed the Doctor some small devices. The Time Lord then took out his screw driver and used it on the small communicators. he then handed 2 of them to River. Then he went to the TARDIS.

TARDIS 4:15 PM

Cheeilee, Toola Roola, and Starsong were teaching The Cutie Mark Crusaders how to paint in a strange room inside the TARDIS. The room has a long scarf, a recorder, a porcelain mask, and other trinkets.

"Wow, Apple Bloom, great job." The multicolored-maned unicorn said.

"Thanks Miss Toola Roola." The yellow earth filly was plaeased. She was drawing a portrait of herself and her friends.

The Doctor walked in his ship and saw the class. He said "Oh an art class." He put on the scarf and said "Well what do you know, it still fits."

"Doctor what are you doing?" Cheerilee said.

"Oh i just came back to put the chronosteel away." He took out the two spheres. "Now then there is still a piece of chronosteel left outside. so we can't leave yet. carry on with your class."

"Where are the others?" Scootaloo asked.

"Still outside." Said the madman.

"What!?" The fillies said.

"Relax, They're safe. Beside it's not like they're in a world populated by things like exploding penguins. I'll see you later." The Doctor left the room and entered the dwarf star alloy-lined room. The stars are in a different position than last time. he let the chronosteel out, and it flew up to embed itself in the ceiling. Images of the Perseus, and Cassiopeia constellations had suddenly appeared in the ceiling and the room brightened up a bit.

Beltsville 4:00 PM

"Ah come on Sariel," Jerameel said. "This experiment will prove how harmonious we are with nature." He was trimming his mustache.

"But Jerahmeel," said Sariel. "An experiment involving Gamma radiation will destroy nature. it's common sense."

"Please Sariel," said Raguel. "Since when does Jerahmeel have any common sense." He had a red sphere with the sigh and constellation for Aries on it. A ram had followed him inside.

Jerahmeel put down the trimmers and said "Hey I resent that Raguel!"

"Fine, let's just get this over with." Raguel then inserted the sphere into a recess.

"Thank you." Jerahmeel then entered the small chamber. Raguel let the ram enter another chamber.

"You can't think that this will end well. You're insane!" Sariel left the room. Raguel activated a small control panel. His dreadlocks were blocking his eyes. he said "Ready?"

"Ready." Jerahmeel said.

Raguel then press a button. Both chambers glowed. And the the sphere glowed a deep blood red. There was an explosion and a great flash. By the time the flash subsided both the metal sphere, the ram and Jerahmeel were gone.

"Jerahmeel?" A figure emerged looking like a humanoid ram wielding an axe. The scientist with the dreadlocks ran from the figure. The humanoid ram chased after him. Raguel screamed. And the mutant vanished.

Bharani ♈ Forza of Mystery

Beltsville 4:01 PM 5/07/1999

Micheal, Uriel, and River went back to the room where their colleagues are. There they saw Pinkie Pie still talking to Raphael.

"...and then I said [Oatmeal? are you crazy?]" Twilight pulled the pink earth pony away.

River walked up to her mother and gave her one of the devices the Doctor had tinkered with.

"What's this?" Amy said.

"A communication device the Doctor tampered with." She said. "The Doctor had recovered two pieces of the chronosteel, but the third piece is still missing."

Micheal was explaining to Uriel about the chronosteel and the ponies. Rainbow dash and Applejack were talking with Gabriel about the chronosteel. Rory was talking with Twilight.

Gabriel had noticed something. "Hey, Where's Sariel, Raguel, and Jerahmeel?"

"Yeah," Uriel said. "Shouldn't they had left the radiation room by now?"

There was a great flash.

TARDIS 4:02 PM

Toola Roola was walking around the corridors of the ship when the Doctor had appeared from the other side. He had an easel with him.

"Well miss Toola Roola," the madman said. "Bit of a weird painting you have there." He put the easel down. The painting on it was the same painting she had made earlier.

"Oh that," she said. "I'm not sure how I even did that."

"Well then I want to know one thing," The Time Lord said. "What do you see in the picture?"

The unicorn looked at her painting. She saw the ponies run in fear as the sky turned a deep red. The cloister bells started to ring. The Doctor had heard the bells and ran back to the control room. The unicorn followed. There was a great flash.

Beltsville 4:05 PM 5/06/1988

The giant flash had subsided. The room looked a bit different.

Pinkie pie said "Hey, Where's Twilight?" River had noticed that Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash were gone. Her parents and the scientists were also missing.

"I don't know." She answered.

"Ugh," Rarity was disgusted. "This place is a disaster, it looked less uh disco-ish a couple minuets ago."

"Um." Fluttershy was looking at the calendar. She said "What time did the Doctor say we've landed in?"

"May 7th, 1999," River said. "Why?"

Before Fluttershy could answer, something broke into the wall. A tall creature with an axe had chopped open a hole in the wall. The bestial creature had the head and body of a ram and the arms and legs of a man. The axe he was wielding was chrome-like and had the sign for Aries on it. River and the ponies ran though the door and the monster chased after them.

Beltsville 4:06 PM 5/07/1999

The flash had subsided. Amy had noticed something was amiss.

"Um Rory?" she said.

"Yes?" Rory said.

"Where's River Song?" she said.

The other people and pony present were shocked. They noticed that River had vanished in the flash. And she wasn't the only one.

"Pinkie Pie's gone too." Twilight said.

"Fluttershy and Rarity are MIA as well." Rainbow Dash said.

"What?" Micheal was a little surprised. He had looked around for the missing person and ponies. "I bet they just went out for a walk."

"At the speed of light?" Applejack said.

"Well then guess we go looking for them," Gabriel said.

"And Sariel, Jerahmeel and Raguel." Raphael said.

"Alright then." Uriel said. The group then left the room to search for the missing ones.

Beltsville 4:30 PM

Amy's group was searching the building for the others. Micheal had searched the kitchen, and lounges with Twilight and Gabriel. Amy, Rory and Applejack searched some of the labs. And Rainbow Dash, Uriel, and Raphael searched the gardens and fields outside. Eventually Twilight found a newspaper.

"Hmm mysterious goatman attacks Beltsville?" She said. Micheal had saw her reading.

"Hey wait a minuet." Micheal said. He then asked to see the newspaper. She obliged and gave him the paper. The picture depicted a monster with the arms and legs of a man but the body of a bipedal ram. The brown-haired scientist noticed something in the picture.

"We should show the others this." Micheal said. Gabriel and Twilight nodded. The three regrouped with the other search parties. Micheal showed the group the paper.

"This is rubbish." Rory said. "Whatever this is, it looks like a ram, not a goat."

"I don't think that why he's showing us this Rory." Amy pointed to the creatures arms. They were holding an axe with an unusual blade. The blade had a sphere inside it with some dots the picture was too fuzzy to make out and the sign for Aries.

"How is this axe so important?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Beacuse I think that's the piece of the chronosteel that Jerahmeel took." Micheal said.

"Are you sure?" Gabriel said.

"I'm positive." Michel.

"But that would mean..." Raphael said.

Just then Some bleating was heard from the fields. The group went to investigate. When they went there, they saw the monster. It was the goatman. He was slaughtering some of it's fellow rams. The group were disgusted by the act. They hid in the bushes.

TARDIS 5:00 PM 5/11/2010

The flash had subsided. The Doctor had just finished examining the TARDIS.

"Well old girl," he said. "Glad to see your alright."

"Doctor, what was that flash?" Starsong said.

"Unexpected temporal shift." He was checking his instruments. "We went 11 years in the future."

"But how?" Cheerilee said. "You didn't even use the ship."

"Something else had triggered the shift." The Doctor then heard some bleating outside. "Do you hear that?"

"Hear what?" Toola Roola said. The pink unicorn was checking on the fillies' health. The doctor exited the blue box and the ponies followed. They went to the fields. there they saw a shadow walk in the distance. The shadow looked like a bipedal ram wielding the ax.

The Cutie Mark crusaders were discussing what to do about the figure.

"Maybe it's someone who can help us?" Sweetie Belle said.

"Ah don't know," Apple Bloom responded. "Seem too weird even for this place."

"Are you sure?" Scootaloo said.

"Eeyup." She answered.

The figure meanwhile had noticed the Doctor and his companions and started to charge.

"Time to go." Said the Time Lord. the group of 7 ran inside the blue box. The Doctor then turned it invisible. The monster then sniffed the air and left. When the monster left the group exited the invisible box. They went to investigate the turn of events.

Mesarthim ♈ Connection

Beltsville 5:30 PM 5/11/2010

The Doctor was searching the fields for a clue. He found some ram corpses and a little easel nearby with paint and a brush.

"What's this doing here?" He said. He checked the easel but found nothing peculiar. He continued searching the fields and then went inside. Meanwhile Cheerilee and the other ponies were searching the inside of the building. The maroon earth pony had been checking the labs for anything suspicious. Toola Roola then walked in the room.

"Hey can I tell you something?" Toola Roola said.

"Of course," the schoolteacher said to her friend. "What's wrong."

"It's that painting you saw earlier." The artist said. "Thing is I don't remember even painting it, or even walking into that room earlier." The pink unicorn then looked around the area and said "The last thing I remember was me thinking about what happened to Equestria. And then these aliens and then that time-stoppy thing. I'm scared."

The school teacher reassured her friend "It's Ok. We all are a little scared. The aliens, the monsters, and whatnot."

"I know."

"You don't have to face your fears alone. I'm here for you, and so is Starsong."

The pink unicorn then smiled and said "Thanks." She then left the room.

"Heh some friend." a mysterious voice said.

"Who's there?" Toola Roola was surprised.

"Nopony," the voice answered. "Nopony's there for you then and nopony's here for you now."

A shadowy pony had appeared in front of Toola Roola. She appeared to have dark green fur and a purple and blue mane in the same style of The pink unicorn's. With a red, orange, and yellow tail. Her cutie mark was a bunch of pink spirals.

The frightened Toola Roola said "Who are you?"

The figure taunted her and galloped away The artist followed the figure up and down some corridors until the two were at the entrance. The figure then vanished. The monster was outside the doors. He took a look at the multicolored-maned pony and gestured for her to come outside. The pink unicorn confused, then walked outside to meet with the monster.

Beltsville 4:15 PM 5/06/1988

River Song, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie had escaped the monster. They were outside in the stars. There they saw a woman with black hair lying unconscious. The woman woke up and saw River and the ponies.

"Am I dreaming?" She said.

"I wish," River said.

"Who are you?" The raven scientist was confused by these people. Pinkie Pie then bounced up to her.

"I'm Pinkie Pie and this is Rarity, Fluttershy, and River Song." Said the pink party pony. She then bounced around the place and furthered rambled on.

Sariel then introduced herself. The archeologist then walked up to her and said "You're that scientist who took a piece of metal from a meteor last week right?"

"Meteor? Oh now i remember, Raguel and Jerahmeel said they needed the metal far an experiment. I tried to stop them but they wouldn't listen. Next thing I know I was being chased by a half ram monster."

"This monster," Rarity said. "Did he happen to have a axe on him?"

"Yeah." She said. "A big one at that. Why?"

"We were being chased out of here by a big ram-monster too." Pinkie Pie said. The group went back inside to search for the monster. River took out her device and tried contacting the Doctor.

Beltsville 4:45 PM 5/07/1999

Amy and Rory were still searching for the "Goatman". Twilight, Rainbow, and Applejack were searching the fields. Micheal, Gabriel, Uriel, and Raphael were searching the labs.

The device in Amy's pocket started ringing. She answered it and said "Hello?"

"Amy? Is that you?"

"River?" Amy reconized. Rory had heard and listened in on the conversation. "Where were you?"

River said "I'm still in the building, 11 years in the past. I found one of the scientists there."

"Anyone else?" Rory said.

"Let's see now, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Fluttershy are with me. But I haven't seen anyone else besides a half ram monster." Said the Doctor's wife.

"But if you're in the past," Amy said. "How are you contacting us?"

"The Doctor must have tinkered with these devices, Did you try contacting him?"

"Not yet." Amy was getting worried.

"Was that ram monster carrying an axe?" Rory said.

"Yes why?" River answered.

"River you must try and get the axe away from the Goatman." Amy said.

"What goatman?" River was confused.

"The half-ram thing." Rory said.

"Now I see. But why?" River said.

"We think that the axe might be made of chronosteel." Rory said.

"We will try to contact the Doctor." Amy said.

"Got it, later." River said. The device then hung up. Amy and Rory then decided to regroup with the others and explain what had happened.

Beltsville 5:00 PM

The scientists were looking for their colleagues when Amy and Rory walked in.

Gabriel said "Did you find them?"

"We know where one of them is," Rory said. "Or rather when."

"Explain." Micheal said.

Amy then said "Well apparently River, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie, are trapped with a blacked haired woman 11 years in the past."

"Did you tell the ponies yet?" the blond scientist said.

"Not yet." Just then a loud crash was heard. The group went to investigate. They saw Rainbow Dash attempting to engage the Goatman. Twilight Sparkle was trying to close the doors, and Applejack was kicking debris at the monster. the purple unicorn managed to lock the doors and noticed the humans. The orange earth pony was holding back the rainbow-maned pegasus.

Twilight had noticed the group and said "Oh, Did you find them?"

Amy and Rory then explained about where the others were and about the axe. Rory then tried to contact the Doctor.

Beltsville 6:00 PM 5/11/2010

The Doctor's communication device was ringing.

"Oh forgot about the thing. Ironic given the circumstances." The Time Lord then picked it up and said "Hello?"

"Doctor?"

"Hello Rory," The madman said. "How are you?"

"Oh you know the usual. Walk with a madman in a box, next thing you know people suddenly disappear. You know same old, same old." Rory said sarcastically.

"I see." He noticed a newspaper on the ground and picked it up. "What do you know about this [Goatman?]"

"Apart from the fact that's he's not really a goat?"

"Yeah."

Rory then explained what he knew of the creature and the Doctor in turn explained about the temporal shift. The doctor said "Good idea I'll try and get the chronosteel from him then I'll pick you up in the TARDIS and drop Sariel back when she belongs. Tell Amy and the rest to get to safety." He then hung up the device.

Meanwhile Starsong was busy wandering the place looking for the other companions. the pink-maned violet pegasus looked out a window and saw her friend with the mutant and an easel.

"Oh no." She rushed to tell the others.

Beltsville 5:00 PM 5/06/1988

River Song had just finished explain about the chronosteel's location and they need to find the monster. Pinkie Pie was prancing around the room.

"But that scary monster could be anywhere." Fluttershy said as she was pawing the floor.

"She has a point," Sariel noted. "Any ideas."

Pinkie Pie then raised her hoof and said "Ohh ohh pick me, pick me!"

Rarity was astounded, River was just shocked. She said "Well lets hear it."

"Follow me." The party pony bounced. having very few options the others followed. When they caught up to the hyperactive pink earth pony, they saw the half-ram monster walking about and bleating and weeping. the axe in his hands were glowing.

"Well come on Fluttershy." Pinkie had a smile on her face.

"What do you mean?" Fluttershy was getting a little scared.

"You can understand animals right?"

"Well yes but..." The yellow pegasus gulped.

"Pinkie you can't be serious?" Rarity said.

"Of course silly," Pinkie was bouncing around the place. "Fluttershy can talk with him, see what's wrong, get the chronosteel, and help him with his problem. See it's the perfect plan."

The others were stunned. River tried contacting the Doctor again but had no luck.

"Alright, I'll do it." Fluttershy then walked up to the Goatman.

"Umm hello?" she said. The monster then looked at her. He was moving his axe around but his other arm was restraining it.

"Um see..." the pegasus had started a conversation with the monster. She asked him what was wrong and after a while the monster stretched his arm out.

"Oh you poor thing, I'm sorry you had to go though all that." She then tried to remove the weapon. Eventually she had disarmed him. The monster had smiled and vanished. Fluttershy then returned to the the group axe in mouth. She had let go of the weapon and it transformed to a red sphere with the sign and constellation for Aries.

"Futtershy, Fluttershy, what happened?" said Pinkie.

The pegasus then answered that the weapon had drove the Goatman mad. Meanwhile River was trying to contact the Doctor again. There was a great flash and the group vanished.

Botien ♈ Monster's Rebirth

Beltsville 5:00 PM 5/07/1999

The flash had subsided. River, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Sariel had reappeared inside the room where the group first met the scientists.

"What happened?" the raven scientist said.

"I don't know." River said.

There was a big hole on one of the walls. The group went to find the others.

Meanwhile Amy and Rory's group had decided to search for the missing scientists. After a while they saw a black man with dreadlocks lying unconscious.

"Raguel!" Raphael ran up to him. He tried waking him up. Raguel was heavily bruised. The scientist woke up and said "Raphael?"

"It's going to be ok." The others waked up to him.

"Save Jerahmeel..." Raguel fell unconscious shortly afterwards. Amy then took out the communications device and tried contacting the Doctor.

Beltsville 7:00 PM 5/11/2010

The Doctor was busy checking for Goatman. His device started ringing.

"Hello?" the Doctor said.

"Doctor we found someone called Raguel." Amy said over the device.

"Ah good, Now all we need to find is Jerahmeel." He then heard the device ring once more. "Something's on the other line. I'll go get that." he said.

"Hello, Isn't it amazing that this phone can call people through space and time."

"Pinkie?" the befuddled Doctor said. he heard a swipe on the other end.

"Hello Sweetie. Finally managed to contact you." It was River Song.

The two then patched both calls. The Doctor, Amy, and River then discussed their progress. The Doctor then saw a violet pegasus and a plum earth pony running in panic. They were followed by 3 fillies.

"Well then I'll pick you up later." He hung up. Then the ponies stopped.

"Something wrong?" He said.

"It's Toola Roola," Starsong said. "The monster's with her."

The group then ran outside. When they got there they saw the multicolored-maned unicorn painting a picture and the Goatman lying down, bleating and weeping. It still held the axe.

The pink unicorn then finished her painting. She said "Oh hello." The Doctor examined the painting. It depicted a man with a brown goatee covering his ears in agony as several creatures were screaming at him.

"Oh I'm so glad you're alright." Cheerilee said.

"Of course." Toola Roola said. She explained that the monster had been misunderstood and that the mysterious axe had been driving him mad. The Doctor then tried to call Amy and the rest. But for some reason the signal can't get through.

The Time Lord then walked up to the Goatman. He examined it and the painting and noticed some similarities. "So you must be Jerahmel huh?"

The hybrid had bleated.

"Well I see that you are caught in quite a predicament, it's that axe isn't it?"

"Doctor, what are you talking about?" the multicolored-maned unicorn said.

"the chronosteel here been giving the scientists nightmares. Both figuratively and literary." The Time Lord explained. "But he had the worst of the lot."

Jeralmeel then handed out his axe. The Doctor and Toola Roola then tried removing the chronosteel weapon. The blood chronosteel then reformed into a sphere shape. The Goatman had disappeared smiling.

"Come along then." The Time Lord then took the ponies back to the TARDIS. On the way back he saw some cloaked figures on one of the fields. He took a look at them and they vanished in a flash. They entered the box Cheerilee then took the Cutie Mark Crusaders to rest. and The doctor took the blue box back to 1999.

Beltsville 5:30 PM 5/07/1999

The TARDIS the appeared in front of the building. The Doctor, Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong and the 3 fillies exited the box. There they saw River with Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Fluttershy, as well as a woman with a black ponytail. She said "So you're the Doctor huh? Names Sariel."

Pinkie Pie then introduced everyone else to the scientist. While River and The Doctor went to talk. They handed out their pieces of the same chronosteel. River's had vanished.

"Blinovitch Limitation Effect." He explained. "Really unsurprising to say the least. Where's Amy and the others."

"Aren't they with you?" River said. The Doctor then tried calling them on his device.

"Hello?"

"Ah Rory, good to hear you again." The Doctor said.

"Doctor? Where are you?"

"In front of the building. Listen, we found the chronosteel. can you bring everyone outside?"

"Sure. We'll be there an a few minuets." Rory hung up the device. Shortly after they saw a figure in the distance. It was the Goatman but he was changing. The monster collapsed and a man with brow hair and a brown goatee took his place.

Beltsville 6:00 PM

Amy, Rory, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Micheal, Gabriel, Uriel, and Raphael had just exited the building. Uriel and Raphael were carrying an unconscious man with orange hair. The ponies had reunited and were glad that they had been ok. The brown-haired scientist noticed the unconscious man near the group.

"That's Jerahmeel," Micheal said. "Where did you find him?"

"I found him and the chronosteel in the same place." The Doctor explained. "The metal had changed him somehow. He had been the Goatman all along. Forced to listen to his nightmares and scattered through all time for the next and previous 11 years." The Doctor further explained that the chronosteel was the cause of the nightmares just as the scientists suspected. And that there are still more out there. his companions had entered the blue box in the meantime.

"But Doctor," Uriel was worried. "What about Raguel, and Jerahmeel."

"Don't worry, They're be alright. they should wake up by morning." The Time Lord faced the blue box.

"Good luck Doctor." The scientists said goodbye to the Time Lord and his companions as the Doctor enters his blue box. The box then vanished.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had entered the room with the chronosteel is. He let the orb go and it flew nearby the other Constellations. The Aries constellation and sign (♈) now appears on the ceiling. The Antikythera mechanism started to glow. It's cranks started turning. And the needle now points to the sign for Taurus (♉).

"Well, 6 down 82 to go." He saw Toola Roola came in the room.

"Doctor?" the multicolored-maned unicorn said. "What's going on?"

"What the paintings?" The Time Lord said.

"Well maybe, It's just that, I didn't even know what i was painting. It felt like something was showing me visions."

"I see well why don't we get some rest then?" The Doctor suggested. They then left the dwarf star alloy-line room.

Aldebaran ♉ Beyond the Legend

TARDIS ??:00

Starsong was inside the dwarf star alloy-lined chamber, practicing her signing. Toola Roola had walked in the room. She heard some screeching from within and covered her ears.

"What happened?" The pink unicorn had startling the violet pegasus in the process.

"Toola Roola?" Starsong said. "Now you know huh."

"Know what?" Toola Roola said.

"My voice, every time I start singing it turns into a screech. I can't even so much as whistle without making everypony run in panic." she then walked closer. "Please, promise me you won't tell anypony about this, ok?"

"Umm ok I guess." the multicolored-maned unicorn assured her friend.

"Thanks." Both ponies left the room. Meanwhile the Doctor was busy studying the date shown by the mechanism. Rainbow Dash flew in.

"What's this doohickey for?" she said.

"This is an Antikythera mechanism." The Doctor said. "Ever seen a clock."

"Um duh." She said.

"Well this is nothing like that. It's more of a compass really, it's what tracking the chronosteel and-- Oh the date is here." He started inputting the date into the TARDIS's controls. "Can you tell the others that I've located the chronosteel?"

"Fine," Rainbow Dash then flew off.

Cretopolis 6:00 AM 6/05/3108

The TARDIS had landed in a street corner of the city-planet Cretopolis. The place they landed on was blue with orange streets, orange lamps, and some orange buildings. The group had exited the blue box. Twilight Sparkle had noticed the abundance of sentience life forms here. From Humans, to Silurians, to even Adipose.

The Doctor had took out a pamphlet from a nearby stand that read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to Cretopolis: 42nd edition" on the cover.

"Doctor," Amy said. "What is this place?"

"Cretopolis apparently." He was reading the pamphlet. "A galaxy-wide center of culture and trade huh?"

"Whoa there a party store here!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed. She then galloped inside. River Song thought 'That mare will be the death of us one of these days.' and followed the party pony.

Twilight went up to the Doctor and said "You think the chronosteel might be here Doctor?"

"Probably, this is the right time-frame." A couple minutes later the pink earth pony had just galloped out carrying large bags of balloons, cake mix, streamers, and wrapping paper. Confusing everyone in the process. They were near an hotel called "Labyrinth's Oasis."

The Doctor decided to go inside the place. He saw Orange and Blue walls everywhere. There was a woman on the counter. She had orange hair and sky-blue skin, and was wearing orange clothes with her name-tag reading "Ariadne"

"Hello," Ariadne said. "Welcome to the Labyrinth's Oasis. I'm the manager Ariadne. How can I help you?"

"Did you seen or heard of a meteor falling recently?" the Doctor said.

The manager then check her records and said "Ah yes, one did fell nearby the king's house. Why do you ask?"

"May I ask where the king's house is?"

"Here are the directions." She then handed him a map. "Are you gonna be staying at the hotel?"

"No thanks, I had a terrible time at a hotel once, except it wasn't really a hotel."

"I see. Well thanks for considering the Labyrinth's Oasis." the Doctor left the hotel.

Cretopolis 6:15 AM

Several rings had appeared in an orange street corner on the other side of the city. Sirius and her team had exited the circle. Flitter and Cloudchaser then put on their cloaks and flew north. Lyra and Bon-Bon had moved west, Sirius herself moved east, and Ditzy and Minty moved south.

The Lavender pegasi had landed on a building top and took off their hoods.

"Well that's a nice city there, huh cloud?" Flitter said.

"Huh?" Cloudchaser was distracted. She said "Yeah, it's nice."

"Still worried about the others huh?"

"I know that Sirius had said this [Doctor] of hers would be able to save them. But still, The chronosteel had been scattered across the universe. I still think that we should be able to find some pieces of our own, help them out a bit."

"Well yeah but didn't Sirius said that her time machine couldn't handle the chronosteel's energy or something like that? And that even if we wanted to we can't bring the chronosteel back without causing any damage to the timeline?"

"I still don't understand any of that timey-wimey stuff." Cloudchaser chuckled.

"Yeah, me too," Flitter then sighed. "But I'm pretty sure that bad thinks would happen if we bring any chronosteel back to that time machine."

Both pegasi had sighed. Cloudchaser had said "Well we should probably head back and tell her that the Dragon Virus isn't in this area." Then they had flew back to the circle.

TARDIS 7:00 AM

Starsong, Cheerilee, and Toola Roola went back to the TARDIS along with the others. When they got there they had noticed a white and gold device that looked similar to the Doctor's sonic screwdriver sticking out of the one of the consoles. The three mares then left the Cutie Mark Crusaders alone.

Scootaloo said "What do you think this thing is?"

Apple Bloom said "Looks like one of these weird screwdrivers."

Sweetie Belle "Nah it looks too big."

While the fillies were discussing what the device is, River Song had been in another room of the blue box. She had been examining the mechanism. The Doctor had walked in the room.

"Any luck?" he said.

"I'm sorry my love," she said. "But with what I have learned about archeology. I still can't get this thing to turn."

"I have a feeling that the mechanism won't turn until we find all the chronosteel in this time frame. By the way, do you know a Max Zeus?"

"Haven't heard of him. Why do you ask?"

"Just a little curious, that's all."

River knew the Doctor was hiding something. But at this point she didn't care. She said "Well I'm gonna explore the place, get some fresh air, and maybe find the chronosteel and find out more about this [Max Zeus.]" River then left the TARDIS. The Doctor decided to do the same thing.

Alnath ♉ Injustice's Trap

Cretopolis 8:00 AM 6/05/3108

The Doctor and River were the first to exit the TARDIS. Followed by the ponies, and Amy and Rory. The latter two went with Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity to the local marketplace while Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash went with the Time Lord. Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong and the Crusaders also left on their own to explore the place.

The Doctor's group then happened on a golden building 11 blocks away from the where the TARDIS landed. There were statue of bulls and Minotaurs everywhere. The Doctor then pressed a button that was below some speaker on the gate and said "Hello I wish to speak to the king."

"Why would you want to speak with king Minos?" the voice said.

"I know what the meteor that crashed here is." The gates then opened and the Doctor's group entered. The interior of this house was much lavish, having more gold statues among other luxuries.

"Wow this castle is amazing." Twilight said in awe of the elegant design.

"Ah don't know Twi," Applejack said. "Seems too fancy for me."

The group then saw a man with an extravagant crown on his head. He was busy writing papers on his throne and desk.

"Are you king Minos?" the Doctor said.

"Y-Yes." The king was clearly nervous.

The Doctor then introduced his group and himself to the king. And then they had begun to chat.

Cretopolis 8:05 AM

The marketplace was unusually green and red as opposed to the blue and orange of the rest of the city. Amy and Rory went a bouquet store and bought several bouquets of flowers. Then they went to another stand and bought some asparagus. A few moments later they then began to have lunch. Rory handed some flowers to each of the ponies and put the food away for later.

"Wow this is delicious!" Pinkie Pie said before eating the flowers. "I wonder what's for desert."

"Probably that cake batter you bought today." Rory deadpanned.

"Pinkie, Why did you buy so much party supplies?" Rarity said.

"We gotta celebrate silly," she said. "We already have 6 pieces of chronosteel." Rarity put her hoof on her face.

"Isn't it too early for a celebration?" Amy said.

"Too early for a party?" Pinkie gasped. "Never!"

"O-Kay." She said. They noticed something move in the distance. It was a rhino like alien with a glowing bag full of something. The alien was being chased by some minotaur-like robots. The group was baffled by this scene and decided to take a closer look.

Cretopolis 8:10 PM

The Doctor, River Song, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack are still in the castle where King Minos resides. After a few minuets of small talk the king decided to cut to the chase and said "Why are you here?"

"We're looking for something called [chronosteel,]" the Doctor answered. "I have reason to believe that the metal had crashed near your house."

"Do you know where it is?" Twilight said.

Minos started thing about the meteor and then said "Ah yes, the meteor. I'm sorry but it's no longer in my possession. The people at an Olympus Limited building have it."

"What's [Olympus Limited?]" River Song felt a little curious.

"Olympus Limited is a company that spans several galaxies." Minos began his exposition. "The people that built Cretopolis a thousand years ago were it's employers and employes. They are the true rulers of this planet, they are in full control of it's laws, and they have this chronosteel you seek."

"I take it [Max Zeus] is one of them?" the Doctor said.

"Correct. Max Zeus is the C.E.O. of that business. And the one who put me in this position in the first. My full name is Minos Aegeus Zeus, and I am one of his sons."

"One of his sons?" Rainbow Dash was confused by this fact. As he didn't look old enough to be one of his sons.

Minos said "I do not know how long you people can live but my father is said to have the lifespan of even the Time Lords themselves."

"That's a pretty big statement there." The Doctor stated.

"Perhaps. Regardless, I don't have the meteor. Perhaps my daughter Ariadne can help. She runs the nearby hotel next to the prison."

"Alright thanks for you cooperation Minos. Goodbye."

The Doctor and his group exited the castle and went back to the Labyrinth's Oasis.

Applejack said "Do you think he's telling the truth?"

"I don't know," Twilight Sparkle said. "Why do you ask?"

"I don't know sugarcube, That Minos character feels shifty if you ask me."

"And the Doctor doesn't?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Rule 1: The Doctor lies." River Song said as she butted in the conversation.

"See." Rainbow dash said.

"Rule 2: The Doctor will not lie about lying."

"Are you kidding me?"

"You know," the Doctor said. "i can hear everything you say. And you may be right."

"That you can't be trusted." Rainbow Dash said.

"Rainbow!" Twilight said.

"Well yeah but I'm talking about Minos." the Time Lord said. "I don't think he's giving us the whole story."

By the time the conversation had ended the group had entered the hotel.

Cretopolis 8:15 AM

The rhino-like alien had been chased around the city for several minuets by several minotaur robots. Amy, Rory, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy also followed the aliens from a distance. They were chasing the bipedal rhino through a yellow-and-purple part of town. There the group passed with Cheerilee and the others.

"What's going on?" Toola Roola said.

"I don't know." Starsong said.

The 6 then cried to catch up with Amy's group. The chase scene lasted for a few moment until the alien had entered the Labyrinth's Oasis. Passing the Doctor.

"What in the..." The Doctor was befuddled. The minotaur robots then entered the building followed by the others. They saw the Doctor and his group.

"Doctor?" Amy said. "What are you doing in a hotel?"

"I was looking for information on where the chronosteel is. You?"

Everyone pointed to the alien and the robots.

"Ah I see, a Judoon, reduced to petty theft huh?" the Doctor said. "Still doesn't explain why you were chasing him."

"What about the robots then?" Rory then looked at the robots. They were handcuffing the rhino-like alien.

"SUBJECT 67110." one of the robots said. "YOU ARE UNDER ARREST FOR THE CRIME OF STEALING FROM THE MARKET. WE ARE AUTHORIZED TO ESCORT YOU TO THE PIT OF DAEDALUS FOR EXECUTION."

"You can't," the Judoon said. "What about my family? They'll starve if I don't bring back food."

What is going on?" Ariadne had entered the lobby. The Doctor was shocked by the scene.

"WE ARE APPREHENDING THE FAMILY OF SUBJECT 67110. THEY ARE NOW PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR PROVIDING A REASON FOR THEFT. THEY SHALL BE ESCORTED TO THE PIT OF DAEDALUS FOR EXECUTION." the other robot said.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" said the Judoon as he was being escorted outside. The Doctor then went to the blue skinned manager.

"Where's the chief of police?" the mad madman with a box said.

"The prison next door. Why?" Ariadne said.

"Pond, Rory, everyone, ask Ariadne about the chronosteel. I'll be right back." He then stormed out of the building, followed by River Song.

Applejack said "Miss Cheerilee, can you please take care of my sister?" as Twilight and Rainbow Dash left the building.

Rarity then said "I was wondering if you could take care of Sweetie Belle too?" Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy had exited the hotel.

"Of course why?" the plum earth pony said.

Applejack and Rarity then left the fillies with Cheerilee, Starsong, and Toola Roola and left the hospital. Meanwhile Rory and Amy then asked Ariadne about where the chronosteel went.

Pinyin ♉ Into the Maze

Cretopolis 9:00 AM 6/05/3108

The Doctor had entered the compound next door. There were more minotaur-robots there. river Song along with Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy had entered shortly after. There was a man behind one of the desks

"I wish to speak with the chief." The Doctor said.

"You will have to make an appointment." The man said. "Chief Asterion is a very busy with the execution."

"Uhh what execution?" Fluttershy said. The man pointed his blue finger to the family of Judoon that had been arrested earlier. They were wearing some sort of rings around their necks. They were slowly entering some maze-like corridor.

"See this is why I need to speak with the chief." The Time Lord said. "All he did was take some food to feed his family, and they didn't do anything wrong at all."

"Well then, You want to speak with Asterion, you will have to rent a room at the hotel next door and wait until he's done executing the criminals." He had a smug smirk on his face.

Rainbow Dash was getting ready to punch the alien out until Applejack was holding her back. The group left the prison and went back to the hotel.

Meanwhile Amy and Rory were asking Ariadne about the chronosteel. The blue-skinned manager checked her records and said "Well it appears that the chronosteel has been taken to a second Olympus Limited building. Cheerilee and the others were busy having another class in the TARDIS the meantime.

The Doctor and his group returned.

"Couldn't file your complaint with the chief huh?" Ariadne said. "I can help you with that you know, and i can help you get the chronosteel."

"You can?" the Doctor said.

"Of course, The police rent rooms here all the time. And they have given me a map of the Labyrinth and other things you'll need to confront the Chief. And since this is part of Olympus Limited's branch of hotels, and that the C.E.O's my grandfather. I can help you get into the building where they're keeping the chronosteel."

The Doctor and his companions then huddled to discuss whether or not to trust her.

"Well should we let her help us?" Twilight said.

"I don't know she seems off somehow." Rarity said.

"Do we have any other means of meeting the Chief?" Rory said.

"No," The Doctor stated. "Nor do we have any means of recovering the chronosteel. I'm afraid we have no choice but to trust her."

"Figures." Rainbow Dash deadpanned.

"Ooh," Pinkie Pie said. "Maybe she has some super-secret passwords to help us?"

"River you are gonna have to help your parents recover the chronosteel." The Doctor said.

"OK sweetie." River said. "But why do you want me to help recover the chronosteel?"

"I know you took that Van Gogh of the TARDIS exploding from Liz10." The Time Lord said.

"So are we in agreement?" Applejack said.

"Um yes?" Fluttershy said meekly.

"Pretty much yeah." The Doctor said.

The group disbanded the huddle. The Doctor walked up to Ariadne and said "Alright you're in. For now."

"Perfect." Ariadne went back to her desk to get some files. The group then waited for a while.

Cretopolis 9:30 AM

The Doctor had took Twilight and her friends on a trip to the prison again. This time Ariadne was with them. The man at the counter was shocked to find the manager there. She took the man on the counter to a nearby hallway. He then said "Ariadne? What are you doing here?"

"I found these people trying to rob me of information on my grandfather. I wish for them to to meet the chief for punishment." Ariadne was trying to act violated.

"OK but why are you here?"

"Olympus Limited policy states that all descendants of any executive are permitted to supervise those that they want punished. You know this right?" she said.

The man gulped and said "Of course. It was Chapter 6, page 7, article 11 in my employee's syllabus. The control room is the door to your left. I'll go prepare them for execution now."

"The stasis rings should not go on the man with the bow-tie instead give him these. Understand?" She then took out a red microchip and a sword shaped thumb drive.

"Yes, of course." He then put one of the rings back and took the chip and thumb drive. He then exited the hallway and saw that Pinkie Pie was bouncing around the place and that there are robots chasing her. Fluttershy and Rarity were trying to restrain the party pony and Rainbow Dash was flying around the place. Twilight Sparkle And Applejack were just standing still. Their eyes glossed over with their pupils missing. The Doctor had came over to the officer and asked. "What are these rings doing here?"

The officer then handed him the chip and thumb drive, dropped the rings and said "They're called stasis rings. Perfect restrains for escapees." The robot minotaurs had just put a ring around Pinkie's neck and she stopped in place. They then put the rings around the other ponies shortly afterwards.

"Don't worry, They will deactivate when you enter the Labyrinth. Be careful though there are some switches that activate them when pressed." The ponies then entered the room where they saw the Judoon enter earlier. The Doctor had entered the area shortly after. Ariadne then turned on the intercom and said "Hello and welcome to the Pit of Daedalus."

The ponies' collars then started to deactivate. They started to move again. They were confused by this turn of events.

"What happened?" Twilight said.

Ariadne, over the intercom, explain that the stasis cuff put the wearers in a state witch temporarily cuts off all sensory capabilities and basically puts them in a deep sleep. She then asked the Doctor to put the chip on the panel to their left.

The blue platform they were on turned red. Ariadne then said "Be careful the [Red_Sting program will allow you to find your way back, provided the maze doesn't turn on you."

"Come again?" Rainbow Dash was confused.

"The rules of the pit is that the labyrinth will change over time: corridors will turn, wall will appear and disappear, and that the switches will have random effects; mostly involving the stasis rings. These rings will also activate if you try to cheat by going through the wall, flying, or using anything that interferes with the signals. If you want to meet the chief, you will need to avoid the minotaurs around the place and get to the center of the labyrinth. Also when you start the Camera will activate and your [execution] will be broadcast over the planet. I can control your pathway over the course of the labyrinth, but I also have to help the others steal the chronosteel as well. So I can't help as much as possible."

"Understood but what about this thumb drive?" the Doctor said.

"If you're doing what I think you're doing than you will need it." She said.

"Ok then, ready?" he said. The ponies nodded their heads and Ariadne then stared the maze. The corridors and wall around them stated to shift, separating the group. Ariadne then changed to another screen and said "This is Ariadne. Theseus is in the Labyrinth, i repeat Theseus is in the Labyrinth."

"Rodger that Ariadne." River Song, Amy and Rory were infiltrating an orange building several miles away from the TARDIS. They had entered the building.

"The Golden Fleece is at the peak. I repeat, the Golden Fleece is at the peak." The blue-skinned manager said.

"Rodger," Rory said.

"Why are you using call signs?" Amy said.

"For fun." Ariadne said. "Now then Jason, Medea, and Pheres. You will need to take the stairways to the left."

"Okay." River (Pheres) said.

Amy (Medea) had noticed a weird statue on one of the pedestals. The statue depicted a dragon of sorts except that the creature also had a lion's claw, a snake tail, and a horse's head among other things. The redhead then looked away from the statue and went upstairs along with River and Rory (Jason).

Alcyone ♉ Rhapsody of the Chase

TARDIS 10:00 AM 6/05/3108

Cheerilee, Toola Roola, and Starsong had just finished giving the crusaders today's lesson. The pink unicorn and violet pegasus went to an empty room to talk.

"OK, Why did you asked to meet me here?" Starsong said.

"Well," Toola Roola had just looked around the room, feeling unsure of herself. "It's just that..." The two mares then noticed something move near the walls. But the figure vanished.

Just then they saw Cheerilee and the fillies galloping as fast as they can. The plum earth pony had some tally marks on her. The other two had saw some Silents walking toward them and decided to run out of the blue box as well. One of the silents went to the control panel where that strange gold-and-white device is , and yanked it out of the panel. The Silents had left the TARDIS to chase the ponies.

Cretopolis 10:01 AM

The Doctor was walking along the maze, trying to find the ponies and the center. Ariadne had just spoke into the intercom.

"Jason, Medea and Pheres are in the Colchis. I repeat, Jason Medea and Pheres are in Colchis." She said

"Are you using call signs?" the Time Lord said.

"Yes.".

"Why?"

"It's fun," She then whispered "Besides, nobody can't know we're trying to take the [Fleece] alright?"

"No, Why are you helping us?"

"Well, My mother went on a business trip to the company's headquarters, to change the way things work around here. She was supposed to been gone for 11 days. But she didn't return." Ariadne then shed a tear. "a few days later word had gotten out that her flight was sabotaged and the passengers killed. My farther did some investigating and we found out that the saboteurs were Olympus Limited employees. Once word got out that they were responsible the company responded publicly by lying that they fired the employees, and in secrecy by imposing new laws on this planet if you commit arson, murder, jaywalking, or even simply speaking ill of the company. You will still face execution."

"I see."

"I can lead you to the center. But the path will have to be invisible and I can't give you directions without alerting the Sentinels to your location. She pressed a button and the pathway in front of the Doctor glowed faintly. The Time Lord then followed the path.

Meanwhile Applejack was running as fast as she can. She had ran past wall that were about to move, and paths that started turning. She noticed Rainbow Dash behind one of the walls, and one of the Sentinels was closing in on her.

"Rainbow!" she said. But the cyan pegasus wouldn't budge. She couldn't actually. Her stasis ring had activated. The farm pony had decided to beat the Sentinel to the pegasus and moved as fast as she can. But the minotaur robot was moving faster. Luckily for her, Applejack had just made it and kicked the robot out of the path and over the walls.

Applejack then towed Rainbow dash to another pathway. The cyan pegasus's ring had just deactivated and confused said "Applejack? How did I get here? Where are we right now?"

"We're still in the maze sugarcube," she said. "Did you try flying again?"

The stunt pony had suddenly remembered the rules and sheepishly blushed. The two then noticed a glowing pathway in front of them. Applejack then said "Come on." and the two followed the glowing tile road.

Cretopolis 11:45 AM

Amy, Rory, and River had made it to the 11th floor. The very top floor of the building.

"OK," River said. "We've reached the peak. Now what?"

"Rodger that Pheres, There should be a switch to your left." Ariadne said. Amy had looked to that direction and saw a level there. She walked to the switch and said "I found it."

"Well pull it, the Golden Fleece should appear there." The manager said. Amy then pulled the switch and a pedestal emerged from the ground. On it was the chronosteel. The chronosteel had the constellations for Orion, Eridanus, Phoenix, Hydrus. and Taurus. The latter one was a vermillion hue and also had the sign for Taurus on it.

"Below the fleece there should be a control panel." Ariadne explained. Rory had noticed the panel there, it had green, blue, yellow, and pink buttons, 4 of each in a 4x4 pattern. she then said "OK now I will tell you the order of the buttons, You must press them in the proper order or else the guard will come after you." She then told the group witch buttons to push, Rory had been pushing the buttons in order. Amy had noticed an alien nearby. It was a silent. "Uhh Rory?" She said.

The Last Centurion had pressed the final button and took the metal. He and River had noticed the silent. River aimed her gun at the alien.

"We've secured the Golden Fleece, I repeat we've secured the Golden Fleece." Rory said.

"Copy that, return to the Argo and avoid these aliens."

"Don't have to tell me twice." Rory puts a tally mark on himself. River shoots the alien and the group runs as far down as she can. After a while they passed the statue again. Only there was no statue.

Cretopolis 12:00 NOON

Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders are running from the silence. The ponies had been running and hiding from the aliens for a few moments. They were cornered by the aliens at a dead end. The aliens were ready to electrocute the mares until...

Starsong started "singing". Her voice was breaking glass and making the aliens run in fear of having to hear that high-pitch wail. The mares them marked themselves and Starsong fainted.

They then went back to the TARDIS, hoping to never see them back there again. Even though they couldn't remember most of the encounter anyway.

TARDIS 12:11 PM

"Starsong are you OK?" Toola Roola said.

"I'm fine," she said. "What happened?" she looked at the marks on her body and said "Never mind."

While the mares and fillies had been resting in the TARDIS, Sirius and her group had regroup in her time machine.

"Any luck?" the cloaked woman said.

"Apparently Professor Daedalus had left a couple hours ago with his son and the Dragon Virus." Lyra said.

"On the bright side," Bonbon quipped. "The Doctor's group had managed to recover the chronosteel, they just have to escape the pit right?"

Sirius had nodded and started the time machine. The cloaked ponies and woman had vanished one by one.

Electra ♉ Sword of Theseus

Cretopolis 1:00 PM 6/05/3108

"Theseus, come in," Ariadne was trying to contact the Doctor. "Theseus come in." The Doctor had been moving on the path way, he had traversed several blocked paths and turning corners. The Time Lord stopped in front of a door and said "Yes Ariadne?"

"The Argonauts have the Golden Fleece, I repeat The Argonauts have the Fleece." She said.

"I see, This door in front, is that where Chief Asteron is?" The Doctor then took his thumb drive out of the pocket. Ariadne then said "Yes." and the madman entered the door. Ariadne meanwhile had noticed a file titled "Prophecy.doc" and started reading it.

The room housed several computers and monitors but no other life form in sight. The Doctor walked around and said "Hello?" The computer screen at the center turned on and an image a red horned alien appeared on the screen. "Who is this!?" the computer bellowed.

Meanwhile the Sentinels had turned red and the maze started shifting. Applejack and Rainbow Dash were galloping as fast and as far as they can. They saw a red sentinel was chasing Rarity and Twilight. The orange earth pony had intercepted the red minotaur robot and kicked it over the walls. The wall then started shifting around them the four mares had decided to stay on the same platform.

"Have you found the others?" Twilight said.

"No," Applejack said. "Just Rainbow Dash."

Just then they saw two figures enter the changing pathway. It was Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. They were being chased by a stampede of Sentinels. Twilight and Rarity then used their magic to levitate the robots but the moment they had flung them over the ever changing walls their stasis rings had activated freezing them in place. The 2 mares had reunited with the others.

After a few minuets Fluttershy said "Did you find the Doctor yet?"

"Not yet." Rainbow Dash said.

The unicorns had regained their consciousness after a few moments. Rarity was stretching her hooves and said "First these so-called [self-help] lessons, now this. I'm starting to like these minotaurs less and less."

"Iron Will wasn't that bad." Fluttershy said.

The 6 friends then decided to wait until the changing maze stops on a path they can traverse. Back in the room with the computers The Doctor had noticed something on the monitors. It said "Police Operating System: Asterion. Property of Olympus Limited." The Doctor then walked forward and said " So you're Chief Asterion huh?"

"Yes, I am Chief Asterion. Created by Nimon science. I was programmed to eradicate crime from Cretoplis."

"You call putting innocent lives in stasis and sending them into a labyrinth to die [stopping crime?]"

"These beings are hardly innocent; If that family haven't been poor, the Judoon imprisoned earlier would not have a reason to steal. Kindness leads to Naivete, Naivete leads to Fear, Fear leads to Anger, Anger leads to Hate. It's called survival of the Fittest."

"It's called faulty logic is what it is." The doctor then took out the thumb drive and looked for an USB port. He said "What kind of people would think that elimination innocents is a good thing?"

"My creators the Olympians of course." Asteron replied.

"Who are the Olympians?"

"That information is classified. And soon to be useless to you. You will die in this maze. But before I execute you may I ask Who you are?"

The Time Lord then waled up to the port and said "Who am i? I am known by many names, The Oncoming Storm, The Bringer of Darkness, and most common of all," he inserted the Drive and said. "I'm the Doctor."

Asteron's mainframe had a window pop-up. the window read "Virus detected, Code [Theseus's_Sword.exe]" The computer had been scared, In it's final words it said "What are you, You should be dead." before his programming had been formatted. The breaking commutator then said "Cake is a lie. 6x7=42. Isaac Newton's theory... Never Gonna Give You Up... Noooooooooooooooo!"

The screens went pitch black. Outside the room the walls of the maze had started disappearing. The ponies stasis rings had shorted out and fell off. Ariadne then said "Doctor I've found something interesting can you meet me outside?"

The Time Lord had noticed the ponies trotting toward the exit and said "Yeah sure." He then took the thumb drive and left.

Cretopolis 1:15 PM

The Doctor and the ponies had exited the Pit of Daedalus. Outside they saw Ariadne and the officer from earlier. The sentinels outside had been shut down. The Doctor went up to the aliens and said "What did that virus do?"

"The Sword of Theseus is a virus capable of shutting down entire systems. I know how to reprogram Asteron's systems, but I need some one to shut it down from the inside. I knew that you would try to stop him the moment you saw that family get arrested." She said.

"Who are the Olympians?"

"What Olympians?" Twilight said in confusion.

Ariadne said "The Olympians are a group of the highest executives of Olympus Limited. All that is known of them is their leader is Max Zeus."

The group saw Amy Pond with River Song and Rory. They had the chronosteel in their hands. The Doctor's group was about to head back to the TARDIS until...

"Wait," Ariadne said. "There's something else I found."

"What is it this time." River said.

"I found a document entitled [Prophecy.]" Said Ariadne. "The document read of the falling of silence, the screams of 88 stars, the death of 108 planets and the return of something in Latin. I believe it was [Diabolus ex Vinco] was it?"

The Doctor was a little shocked by this message. He and his group returned to the TARDIS. The Doctor did a roll call and shortly afterwards the blue box had disappeared.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor took the chronosteel into the dwarf-star-alloyed room. He let the metal go. The chronosteel rose up and took their places in the night sky. The piece with the Taurus sign (♉) had been glowing a reddish orange and the one with Aries's sign (♈) now glowed a deep crimson red. The Antikythera mechanism had activated again and the needle now points to the sign for Gemini (♊). The Doctor now had 11 pieces of chronosteel. He took the mechanism and began to study it.

Cretopolis 3:00

King Minos was sitting on his throne. A man had entered the throne room.

"I have been expecting you Hermes." Minos said. His daughter, having returned from the hotel had been hiding behind a spire.

Hermes had taken out a pair of wings from his shoes and used them to make a holographic screen. Black silhouettes on a white background appeared.

"So the Doctor's isn't dead then huh?" the center-most figure said. "Did he took the bait?"

"Yes, Our backers had gotten he laser screwdriver from the TARDIS and the statue from one of our facilities."

"Good," the figure to the right said. "Let the fool collect as much of the chronosteel as he wants, it will only bring our goal closer to completion."

"What about the people the cloaks?" the figure opposite from the previous one said. "They don't look connected to the Doctor in any way at all."

The eye-patched woman had appeared in the throne room and said "Wrong, their leader has all the connection she needs. And all the motive she'll need to foil us."

"I see," Minos said. "And what motive would they need then?"

"When your home is destroyed you are left with nothing right?" she said. Several silents had appeared behind her. "Wrong, she has just one thing left after that. And she will do everything in her power do protect that one thing. Even when everything else is reduced to ashes."

"Let them try." The first silhouette said. "They will never succeed in stopping us from bringing back the Gods." The screen went blank. Hermes put back the wings and vanished. Ariadne heard the whole conversation and tried to escape to warn the Doctor. But some Sentinels and silent had block her path. She ran and ran until the aliens caught her. They took her to a nearby spaceship. She began to scream as the spacecraft left the planet of Cretopolis

Pollux ♊ Emerald Dawn

??? ??:00

The Doctor had appeared in the white void again. he saw his TARDIS in human form again.

"Well that was weird." Said the Time Lord.

"Another Harmony, 88 screaming stars, 108 still points..." The TARDIS began to scream. a scream so loud it broke the floor below them. The man in the tweed jacket had found himself in a room that seemed somehow familiar. In this room he saw a metal sword above his head. The Sword hat been suspended only by 6 horse hairs. The Time Lord stared seeing visions, equine shapes moving in different directions. The hairs began to break and the sword fell.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor woke up and saw that the previous scene was a dream. Twilight Sparkle had been standing in the door way.

"Doctor is there something wrong?" she said.

"Huh no." Said the Time Lord. "Nothing at all." he noticed the Antikythera mechanism and started inputting coordinates. The time had come again and the Doctor told the purple mare to alert the others.

Twilight ran into Toola Roola and saw her painting again. The easel was showing a sword held by 6 lines. The lines were in order: A rainbow line, a curly purple line, a straighter purple line, a even more curly pink line, a yellow line, and a straighter pink line. The pink unicorn had just open her blue eyes and saw Twilight and the easel.

"Um," said Twilight. "What did you paint?"

Toola Roola was surprised. She covered up the easel and said "Nothing." before running out of her room. Twilight shrugged and went on to tell the others the TARDIS is about to land.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 12:00 MIDNIGHT 6/29/3128

The TARDIS has landed inside a cave which had several crystals sticking out of the ground and walls. The Doctor and his group had entered a complex inside the cave and saw two scientists inside.

"Hello," said one of the scientists. "I am Professor Pygmalion and this is Professor Daedalus." The Doctor had introduced himself as John Smith as usual and then introduced his companions. Rarity meanwhile was dazzled by the gems. The Doctor went to the two scientists.

"Did a meteor fall on this planet?" the Time Lord said.

"Why yes, a meteor did fall here," said Daedalus. "We've sent our assistants to check it out. They went that way." Professors Daedalus and Pygmalion then entered a cave to his left.

"I see, come along then." said the Doctor. The group followed the professors.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 1:05 AM

A young lad is examining the meteor. He took out a device from his lab coat. A little girl was playing with her sister in the meantime. The lad took out a crystal and said "This is Crystal Log 67-42-23. I, Professor Icarus had found something inside the meteorite." He hen put his hand into the rock and took out an orange metal sphere. He said "This metal appears to have distinct proprieties. On this sphere is he constellation and sign of Gemini as seen from the planet Earth." Icarus put the crystal away. Professors Pygmalion and Professor Daedalus then enter the cave. They were followed by The Doctor and his companions. The two girls had noticed the ponies traveling with then and Icarus went to Daedalus and The Doctor.

"Father," said Icarus. "What are these people?"

"This man is John Smith, and his assistants." Daedalus answered. Meanwhile the two girls had met up with Pinkie Pie and the other ponies.

"My names Castor." The girl in black said.

"Pollux, nice to meet you." The girl in white said.

"I'm Pinkie Pie..." The pink earth pony then introduced her friends and then taking about how they would be good friends. River Song however had noticed something off about the little girls and went to the Doctor and her parents.

"Doctor do you think there's something off about this lot?" River said.

The Time Lord looked to the girls and noticed something...strange. He said "I think so." Rory and Amy had looked at Pollux and Castor as well but didn't see anything out of the ordinary. The Doctor then noticed the chronosteel in Icarus' hand.

The Time Lord went to Icarus and said "Can I see that?" The scientist's son then scratched his blond hair and focused his hazel eyes on the metal. He looked to his father who nodded and he gave The Time Lord the sphere. There was another complex nearby the meteor. Both Professors then offered the guests a place to rest for the night.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 6:00 AM 6/30/3128

Rarity had woken up and began examining the gems around her. She started using her locating spell and saw many sapphires, amethyst, rubies, diamonds, topazes, emeralds, and many other gemstones beneath the ground.

"Wow, I could make quite a lot of dresses with these when this whole thing is over." Said the white unicorn. She than got to thinking about her magic. She decided to ask the other ponies for assistance preparing a spell.

The Doctor meanwhile was looking for Professor Pygmalion. He was busy pulling something out of the meteor. It was more chronosteel. The man in the tweed jacket noticed this and sought to help the man. The chronosteel already out had the constellations of Triangulum, Lynx, Grus, and Canis Minor. The Time Lord and the scientist then took out the last chronosteel, a piece each depicting Auriga, and Camelopardalis each.

The scientist then noticed the Doctor. He backed up and said "John Smith, you scared me."

"Call me the Doctor." He noticed the twins playing outside and said "What can you tell me about these girls?"

"My daughters?" said Pygmalion. "Why?"

"I've noticed something...strange about these girls. They seem to be somehow off about their chemical composition. Like their not even human or alien for that matter. Care to explain?"

Pygmalion took out a small ruby from his waistcoat and said "What if I told you you can store an unlimited amount of data inside this ruby?"

"Then I would say that is rubbish then." The Doctor rebutted.

"But it's true." Pygmalion then took out a device and inserted the ruby in. The device turned on and show a bunch of files downloading. The ruby glowed as the process took place. The scientist took the ruby out and the download halted. He said "I call it [The Galatea Experiment.] My colleague Professor Daedalus had invented the technology but his son and I have been perfecting it. With this you can hold an unlimited amount of information of any and all kinds."

"I see," said the Doctor. "But what does this have to do with your daughters?"

"I did say it can hold an unlimited amount of information Doctor." said Pygmalion. "That includes brainwaves."

The Doctor was stunned. He then did a double take at he girls and said "You're telling me that these girls are made of crystals?"

"Correct." Said Professor Pygmalion. He handed the Doctor the chronosteel and said "Now then I must be off. Daedalus and I have to to check some research notes." The professor then left and Icarus walked in the cave.

River Song had just appeared from the complex and said "Something wrong?" to the Doctor. The Time Lord then looked at the crystal girls and said "I don't know."

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 6:30 AM

Toola Roola was painting again. The shadowy figure from before had appeared again. Scaring the multicolored-maned unicorn.

"What are you doing here? Who are you?" she said.

The green one then trotted up to her and said "I'm your shadow, the true self. And I sure love to paint everypony's nightmares."

Toola Roola was even more scared. The door opened and the green pony vanished again. Rarity was the one who opened the door. She was levitating several gemstones with her horn.

"Oh hello darling." Said the white unicorn. The pink unicorn had moved slowly to obstruct her painting. The fashion-minded unicorn then said "Would you like to help me with something?"

"Yes," said Toola Roola. "I need some air anyway." Both unicorns left the room. Leaving behind a painting of gemstones. Gemstones oddly shaped like ponies...

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 6:45 AM

Rarity had took the other ponies to an area of the cave. There she levitated a crystal pillar. The pillar wouldn't budge.

"Still won't move." Rarity said.

"Rarity, what are you doing?" Applejack said.

"Isn't it obvious?" said the white unicorn. "I'm trying to get some souvenirs for the trip."

"But Rarity," said Fluttershy. "We are inside an alternate universe. Who knows what these gems can do to us?"

"Oh please, what could possibly go wrong?" Rarity then levitated the gems around her. The flash from her horn had been intensifying with each try. Soon after, Twilight and Toola Roola tried to to help their friend. Eventually there was a great flash and all the ponies fainted.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 7:45 AM

Pollux and Castor were changing their clothes. Pollux had put on a white shirt with an black tortoise near the neck and an blue dragon on her right sleeve. Castor put on a black shirt with the left sleeve depicting a white tiger and the bottom of the shirt depicting a red fire-bird. Both shirts have a yin-yang symbol on each. They then put on some pants. There was a communicator on he nearby desk.

Pollux then took a book and started reading. Castor then took a ball and throwing it against the wall. The ball bounced back. The twin in black then said "So how long do you think our guests will stay?" The ball then hit her nose.

"I really don't know." said the twin in white before checking her blue hair. "This is the first time since daddy moved here that we've had guests."

Icarus then walked in on the girls. Castor had noticed the assistant scientist, blushed, and tried to cover her nose with her orange hair. Pollux giggled at the sight.

"Is something wrong?" Icarus said.

"no nothing wrong, why do you ask?" Castor lied. Her hair slipped and reveal a crack on her nose.

Icarus slapped his face and said "Not Again. Castor what did I tell you about play with that ball indoors?"

"It wasn't my fault there's no basketball court here." Castor said.

"I'll go get some resin. Pollux please take care of your sister?" Icarus left. Pollux then sighed, unaware that something was lurking just outside the cave...

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 8:00 AM

The ponies had awakened, still tired from their sudden fainting spell. For some odd reason their chests were decorated with studs of varying gemstones.

"Everypony OK?" Cheerilee said. the other waking ponies nodded.

"What happened?" said Rainbow Dash feeling a little groggy. Toola Roola and Starsong had noticed the gemstones seemingly embedded to their bodies.

"How did these gems get here?" Starsong said. The fillies had noticed some gemstones on their flanks. They cheered for several minuets thinking they have their cutie marks.

"This doesn't make sense." Twilight was trying to find a logical explanation for what had happened.

"We just hitchhiked into another universe in a blue box that larger on the inside and a self-declared madman and now you say this doesn't make sense?" Rainbow Dash said.

The other ponies decided to head back to the Doctor and try to explain what had happened.

Alhena ♊ Sapphire Tempo

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 9:00 AM 6/30/3128

Amy and Rory were busy asking Icarus about the chronosteel. River Song was busy putting the chronosteel away. She took up her sonic blaster and puts the weapon away.

The Doctor was busy checking out the gems when the 12 ponies had entered the cave.

"Doctor," said Rarity. "We have a problem."

The Time Lord noticed little studs in the chests of these ponies (and on the flanks of the fillies). One of their hooves each also appeared crystallized. Twilight explained about the spell they helped Rarity cast. Rainbow Dash meanwhile was getting mad about this turn of events.

The Doctor decided to go to Daedalus and Pygmalion and ask them about these gems.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 9:07 AM

The Doctor went inside the guest complex and used the communications device on the desk. He tried getting one of the scientists on the phone.

"Hello?" said a voice on the other end. It was Pygmalion.

"I need to know, Was there somewhere we shouldn't go? Any place we should not open?" the Doctor said.

"Not really, you're free to go anywhere as you wish," Pygmalion said. "However there are some gemstones that are holding back the Heliotropes. But these are so heavy you would need telekinesis to lift them."

"Like the telekinesis the unicorns I brought with me are capable of?" the Doctor said.

Pygmalion paused for a moment and said "Is anybody turning to crystal now?"

"12 ponies, yes."

"Doctor, I know a cure for this, but you must get everyone back to my complex on the other end of this cave Now. Icarus will lead the way. He sure to have noticed by now." Pygmalion had hung up.

The Doctor had went to Icarus first and the two of them gathered up everyone for escape. The group had tried to come out the way they came in, but the pathway was blocked. There were some footsteps coming in the distance. The group then looked for another path.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 9:10 AM

Professor Pygmalion told Professor Daedalus about the Doctor's predicament and they left their own complex. They took some crystals with them. The pathway they took to the meteor was blocked.

"Damn." Said Pygmalion.

"We have to go another way." Daedalus said.

Just then two cloaked ponies had appeared in front of them. The two scientists are surprised by the encounter.

"Are you with Olympus Limited?" Pygmalion said.

One of the ponies took off her hood to reveal Minty's head. Her partner did the same and revealed Ditzy's head. Minty said "No, and isn't this an abandoned facility?"

Daedalus answered yes to the green earth pony. The grey wall-eyed pegasus had asked the scientists about the Dragon virus. Daedalus then realized that the ponies must have been connected to someone else he knew. He went back to the complex and pulled out a Jade crystal.

"Is this what Sirius wants?" Daedalus said.

The two ponies nodded. Pygmalion said "Who in the world is Sirius?" Daedalus then took Pygmalion to speak in private.

"25 years ago..." He said. "A cloaked woman had appeared back in Cretopolis. I was still working on the Pit, Perhaps you heard of it?"

"Kind of hard not to," said Pygmalion. "You put your name on it and everything. And then our bosses put you and your newborn child there 20 years back."

"I escaped the prison, and later the planet with Icarus. But back then the woman told me that something bad will happen: 108 still points will emerge in the Medusa Cascade, 88 stars will scream, their scream will pierce 216 frequencies and eventually destroy the universe. I had this feeling that Olympus Limited had something to with this. But when I started investigating King Minos came with a battalion of Sentinels and arrested me in my own dungeon. When I escaped I started working on a Virus that can crash their systems while Icarus helped you with your research."

"So are these ponies related?"

"Not diretcly to the Doctor, no. But when I saw him I noticed a sensed a faint connection between the two. I think that he may be the one one who will use it to eliminate the people in charge of this dreaded corporation." They heard some growling and decided to go. they said goodbye to the cloaked ponies, but they decided to help the scientist reunite with the others. The group of four then exited the and tried to track the Doctor.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 9:25 AM

The Doctor's group had finally found another pathway to the TARDIS and entered another cave. By that point the unicorns' horn were fully turned to crystal and The pegasi's wings are party turned to crystal. Most of the ponies were struggling to move their now fully crystallized leg.

Castor and Pollux were busy comforting the ponies.

Pollux said "Are you gonna..."

"...be okay?" Castor said.

Icarus than stood in disbelief over the sudden shift in speech patterns. the human scientist than pulled our a crystal and said into it "This is Crystal Log 67-43-11. The Heliotrope Golems have escaped. 12 um ponies have been exposed to the Crystal virus. Normally the victims can still move and communicate even when fully crystallized. But the biology of the little ponies may prove otherwise in this case. The twins and I are equipped with neural relays in case we perish. We had encountered The Doctor. I pray that he may somehow help us." Icarus put the crystal back.

The Doctor meanwhile was using his sonic screwdriver to track the TARDIS. But something's interfering with the signal. Twilight Sparkle came to the Time Lord. She had felt some regret in him.

"Is there something wrong?" she said.

"Huh, of no. Nothing's wrong at all," said the Doctor. "Well aside from...that" referring to the crystallization of the ponies.

"Are you sure?"

The Doctor was actually really unsure. Ever since the Time War the Doctor had felt some guilt for being the sole surviving Time Lord. Now there is another species of intelligent beings, and they too became an endangered species. The Doctor had promised them that he set thing right somehow. But now he's not even sure he can fulfill that promise.

Amy had met up with them. She had noticed something wrong with the last Time Lord.

"It's what happened to the other Time Lords again isn't it?" she said. Twilight had been confused by her words. The purple unicorn had wondered what happen the Doctor's species. Suddenly there was some growling. Icarus then went ahead and said "We need to hurry." The Doctor then used the screwdriver and said "It's this way." while pointing to a cave to the north east. The group then followed the Time Lord hoping to escape whatever has been unleashed.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 9:30 AM

Pygmalion and Daedalus followed by the cloaked Minty and Ditzy had went down the cave. They had entered a chamber of sorts. In this chamber was rock monsters and some sort of heat source. The foursome had hidden behind some rocks.

"That's them?" Minty said.

"What, black crystalline bodies, blood splats on them, and hulking big figures?" deadpanned Pygmalion "That's them alright."

"Care to explain Pygmalion?" Daedalus said. He then prepared to begin his story.

Meanwhile The Doctor's group had made it to an empty chamber. They rested for a moment. The Doctor had confronted Icarus and said "What are these things?"

"What things?" Icarus said.

"Those Helio-whatis things you mentioned." said Rainbow Dash. "And what do they have to do with This?" she stretched out her now fully crystallized wings.

Pollux said "He's not gonna..."

"...tell you." said Castor.

The Doctor had noticed something in Castor's hand. the girl int he black shirt had gave him a crystal. He examined it with his screwdriver and saw some holograms pop up. The holographic documents had the file-name "Heliotrope_Data.doc." Every one started reading the documents.

Meanwhile back at the chamber with the Professors. Pygmalion had began his exposition. He said "It all started with my research. I was busy working with the Hephaestus Division of Olympus Limited. My work as you could guess was to find a way to store data into crystals. One day I was studying How lifeforms could think, feel, Live. It was then that I had an idea. I decided to go to work with other scientists to create some prototypes for this breakthrough. Unfortunately the crystals we used were unable to keep up with the emotion, making them little less than Cybermen. The only difference between the two was that at least the Cybermen could think. These were a different story."

"So that how the Heliotrope Golems started huh?" Daedalus said.

"What happened next?" Ditzy Doo said.

"Although the Hephaestus Division saw it a failure. The Ares division saw it a success. They wanted warriors, immune to pain and suffering, and easily manipulated." Pygmalion mused on his thought before resuming. "I knew that these...monsters will bring death and destruction to the entire universe. I backed up and deleted the original notes and with the help of several fellow employees, deactivated the Golems and sent them to this planet where I hoped to continue my research and that it would not result in more weapons. I had used the ship that brought the golems here to try and find some help."

"And that's when you saw us, escaping from Cretopolis." Daedalus said.

"You and your son were of exceptional help to my research." said Pygmalion. "Thanks to you I was able to perfect Project Galatea, and changed simple gemstones to beings that can act, feel, and think for themselves. But now we must focus on stopping the mistakes of my past and ensure a better future for all."

"Does the crystallization of the ponies have anything to do with this?" Daedalus said.

"What crystallization?" Minty said.

"The Crystal virus was a side effect of their presence." said Pygmalion. "All it simply did was turn the victims into living crystal statues. However it did so in a way that was thought impossible by nature. Only lifeforms that were there when the Golems were first exposed to oxygen could catch the virus. And even if fully crystallized the victims could still move, speak, and think. For a few months at least."

"Wait that would imply that Golems need to be kept somewhere without air in the first place right?" Minty was a little surprised by her sentence.

"Aye," said Pygmalion. "During the initial experiments they were kept inside a space station near the Oodsphere. And here we sealed them inside a vacuum-filled space to keep them from the wrong hands. The crystals made from the virus had broken down after a couple months. But by researching it's effect, Daedalus, Icarus and I were able to create 2 lifeforms that were resistant to breaking down for at least a thousand years. And in the process, reverse-engineer a cure for the victims. I had secretly sent the first batch of it to the victims of the initial strain."

There was a pause and suddenly tally marks appeared on Ditzy's side. The gray pegasus had noticed and tole the others to run. They were suddenly surrounded by Silents, but have escaped to a nearby cave. Some of the aliens were about to chase them until a holographic screen appeared. it was the eye-patched lady. She said "Let the golems take care of them." The memory-proof aliens the went in front of the Golems gave some commands and disappeared.

Maia ♊ Topaz Reflections

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 10:00 AM 6/30/3128

The Doctor and his group ran as far into the cave as they went. The ponies' hooves had been fully crystallized. Castor and Pollux had stopped. They seemed to had heard something in the distance.

"Did you hear that?" Castor said.

"Yeah, I did, why?" Pollux said.

"They're coming faster then we expected."

"Daddy and Daedalus are near, I can sense their presence." the other twin said. "We need to warn everyone."

"No, we need fight off the golems."

"You know that we can't beat the golems."

"And you know that most of our guests were infected with the Crystal virus." She then pulled out a stalagmite and fashioned it into a club. "The least we can do if distract them until dad can cure the ponies at least."

"And what about Icarus?" Pollux said. Castor then dropped the club and said "Fine, we'll warn the others first." the crystal twins then tried to catch up to The Doctor's group.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 10:11 AM

Icarus had stopped running and noticed Pollux and Castor was missing.

"Oh no." he said.

"Something wrong?" the Doctor said.

"Where's Castor and Pollux?"

The Doctor had noticed hat the twins had disappeared as well. Amy and Rory were helping Cheerilee and Toola Roola calm the fillies down. Twilight and River were looking out for the Golems. And the rest of the ponies were trying to rest. Icarus then sat down and said "If anything happened to them, I...I..."

"It's okay," said the Doctor. "I know how you feel."

"How would you know," said Icarus "You go on countless adventures, saved many lives, and ran so much that I bet you have to go shoe shopping between trips."

"And do you think that on most of these adventures I haven't had my share of losses? Many of my companions and best friends have died, one of them got stuck in alternative universe, another can't even remember me or else she dies as well. And I don't even know when will be the last time I see River Song again."

"What are you trying to say Doctor?"

"I don't really know," said the Doctor. "But I do know one thing. We will survive this You, Me, The twins, The ponies, We will escape the Heliotrope Golems and survive. Everybody Lives."

Just then Castor and Pollux had caught up to them. Icarus had cried at the sight of the twin girls and went to hug them. The reunion was short lived as deep footsteps were heard. Twilight and River had returned from the lookout. The purple unicorn had said "They're coming."

The Time Lord and the rest of the group had decided to move as far away as they can.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 10:25 AM

The Doctor's group had entered a small chamber. There they saw a small crack in the ceiling. The planet's sun's rays had made this place brighter than the rest of the mines. There seem to be no golems for yards here. Icarus took out a crystal and said "This is Crystal log 67-44-02. We had just entered a part of the mines where the light of the star [HD 59686 b] had shone. We seemed to evaded to Golems..."

While Icarus had been speaking into the crystal. The Cutie Mark Crusaders had finally realized that Their "cutie marks" were part of the virus. and were scared by the though of being motionless statues (again). Applejack and Rarity comforted their sisters while Cheerilee did the same for Scootaloo. Pinkie Pie was busy barricading the entrance. The pegasi were having trouble flying with their crystal wings.

Twilight had noticed that The golems seemed to avoided this place. But why. She pondered on the thought until she had an epiphany. The Golems must have feared sunlight. The purple unicorn went to the Doctor and Icarus. and explain her idea.

"Are you sure?" said Icarus. "But the Golems are made out of heliotrope crystals. and outfitted with experimental solar generators as a backup power supply."

"How experimental?" Twilight said.

"Basically they explode..." Icarus had an idea. "When they absorb too much power."

"Okay, so we have to get the sunlight in somehow?" Amy said.

"Exactly Pond." The Time Lord answered.

"Can't you just use the [sonic screwdriver] maybe cause a cave-in?" Icarus said.

"Something's blocking the signal."

Pollux and Castor had a plan. Pollux said "Maybe we can expand the crack from above?" Icarus was a little relived to hear them not finish each other's sentences.

"One problem," said Twilight. "The pegasi can't fly under these conditions." referring to the crystal wings.

"Do you know anything that can get us up there?"

"Well," said Twilight. "I know a spell that can make a pair of wings, but it's really hard, and the sun can and will bun them off if you get too close."

the Doctor and Icarus were thinking of another way River had noticed some footsteps in the distance. eventually Icarus said "I'll do it. Give me the wings, and I'll try to bring the light in."

The Doctor and Twilight was taken aback by this request. The Doctor then said "No I'll do it." River had been a little shocked.

"No Doctor." Said Icarus. "I should be the one to do so."

"But you will get killed out there."

"So will you if you attempt this. this planet's atmosphere is poisonous enough to prevent regeneration. You must live."

"I kinda agree with Icarus." River butted in the conversation.

"of course you would." The Doctor said.

"As I was saying," said Icarus. "I saw the prophecy my dad was reading before we escaped. I know about the 108 still points, the 88 screaming stars, and I also know of another prophecy involving the planet Trenzalore. You must be the one to survive to ensure the survival of others. Me? I'm the one named Icarus here. It's like my destiny do die by falling form the sky. I might as well do so in a way that can help people. Besides if you die here the universe will suffer all the more for it."

The Doctor was stunned. He knew that if he went up there. And he also saw the ponies slowly being turned to crystal. He then noticed something on the sleeve of Icarus' lab coat, something familiar. The realized what the device is and said one final question: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"100% sure Doctor." Icarus said.

"But I don't even know if I can even do this spell. I haven even uses it on a human before." Twilight said.

"I understand, but right now this is our only chance."

"Alright then." She focused all her energy onto the scientist. Her now crystal horn glowed brighter than before. Blue ribbons had covered Icarus and glowed. When the casting was finished Twilight had almost fainted from exasperation.

Icarus had took a good look at his wings and thought 'Gossamer Wings? Not what I had in mind but they will do for now.'

Castor went out and said "I'm coming with you!" shocking both Icarus and Pollux.

"Castor what are you doing?" Pollux said.

"It's too dangerous." Icarus said.

"I'm not gonna let you go it alone." said Castor. "How are you even gonna make the holes in the ground? digging? I know a faster way of illumination."

The Doctor had noticed a crystal device similar to the one Icarus had on Castor's forehead. He also noticed something in her eyes. the time Lord then said "Let her go." to Icarus. The winged scientist also noticed the same thing on Castor's eyes and then said "Alright we'll go together."

"Castor are you sure you want to do this?" Pollux said.

Castor nodded and grabbed Icarus's hand. The two of the flew up he crack in the ceiling and the rest then decided to find their way back to the TARDIS.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 10:45 AM

Minty, Ditzy, Daedalus and Pygmalion retreated back to the first complex. They had heard explosions nearby. The ceiling of the cave cracked right open letting sunlight. The Golems nearby had exploded from power overload. the scientists were a little stunned. Pygmalion said "Oh yeah I remember installing solar panels on each golem."

"Why did they blow up then?" Daedalus said.

"It's possible that after being locked in the dark caves for so long the panels had adapted to run on less power. When more sunlight is reintroduced they might overload from having too much energy then they are used to."

Daedalus had an idea. "Do we still have any explosives?"

Pygmalion said "Of course, one of the things I bought in bulk was explosives, since expanding an abandoned mine would get hard by my lonesome. I hid caches of explosives everywhere in secret. Only Castor and myself know the exact locations."

"I see," said Daedalus. The two ponies with them had said their goodbyes to the scientists and disappeared. The two scientist went back to their complex to get some explosives. When they got there they saw some of the bombs were missing.

"Where did the bombs go? I'm sure there were more explosives than this!" Pygmalion stated.

"Perhaps someone already knew ahead of time of the Golems sudden weakness." Daedalus deadpanned.

"But who the only one who would know where this place is..." Pygmalion then had a terrible realization. "We must help the others and fast!" The two scientists had took the bombs and the cure to the Crystal virus. they then exited the complex again. They saw some figures walking in It was the Doctor's group. the scientists were glad to see them safe, Daedalus went to administer the cure at once. One by one the crystallized ponies are retuning to normal. Meanwhile Pygmalion saw that Icarus and Castor was not with them.

"Where are Castor and Icarus?" Pygmalion said. By the time Daedalus administered the last of the cure, he noticed that his son was not with them. The group heard some explosions and realized their fears came true. The scientist took some bombs and the group left the cave.

Meanwhile Minty and Ditzy had met up with Sirius and the cloaked ponies in another shaft.

"Did you get the Dragon Virus?" Sirius said.

The Mint-green earth pony had brought out the piece of jade. They entered the time machine and vanished one by one.

Mebsuta ♊ Diamond's End

Surface of HD 59686 b 11:00 AM 6/30/3128

Castor and Icarus were planting dynamite as fast as they can on the barren surface. The brown ground was perfect for the explosions. The winged scientist was finished placing the last stick of dynamite on a high platform.

"Are you ready?" Castor said.

The Scientist nodded and flew far away from the blast zone. Castor scanned the ground for any lifeforms, and saw nothing but Golems. She then detonated the explosives from a distance. The blast made large holes revealing the mines below.

"Come On." He took the little girl's hand and flew to a nearby mountain. His wings started to feel hot...

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 11:07 AM

The Doctor's group had started making the trek to the largest deposit of crystals in the mine. They followed the pathway without a ceiling to not confront the Golems yet. Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy were talking about how things went.

"I'm glad that we were able to be cured in time," said Fluttershy. "But I wonder if They will be alight up there."

"Don't worry, I'm sure they will be alright." Twilight said.

"But they said the surface is dangerous..." Meanwhile Applejack was comforting the fillies about losing the crystal cutie-marks. And River Song was talking to the Doctor.

"Doctor that gem on Icarus's sleeve, was that a neural relay?" she said.

"Why yes it was." he said. He was carrying a manual detonator.

"Would be very useful in the 51st century." River said. The Doctor was saddened by that response. For he knew what would befall his wife. Eventually the group made it the deposit. There they saw multiple Golems. And several giant spheres There was a pathway to the side of where they entered. They took the path upward.

Surface of HD 59686 11:30 AM

Icarus flew over a tall mountain. He began planting the dynamite sticks from above. Castor planted her explosives form the ground. So far so good until...

His wings disintegrated from the intense heat of the sun. The scientist fell after planting the last stick of explosives on the mountain.

"Icarus!" Castor went to the crash site on the foot of the mountain. She saw the corpse dead and unmoving. The crystal on the sleeve began glowing. Castor knew what that was. The crystal girl in the black shirt took the crystal from the lab coat. But when she removed the small device the ground gave way from beneath and both fell back into the mines.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 11:45 AM

The Doctor and his group had finished planting the explosives. The unicorns used their telekinesis to mount the explosives on the the walls, The pegasi mounted them to the ceilings and everyone else planted them on the floor. Things were going well until several explosions were heard. the golems had noticed the bombs, and their planters. There was silence for a few seconds until River shot the first Golem with her sonic blaster. Everyone started defending the explosives while the Doctor tried to plant the final bomb.

While the Time Lord ran to plant the bombs The others were busy buying time. River started shooting the Golems. Amy and Rory had let the small children and the scientist outside to safety. Applejack and Rainbow dash had been kick the golems out of the caves. Twilight and used her magic the halt the golems and the others were busy, hiding, or protecting those being hid. The Doctor was almost there until...

The Golems had surrounded him along with some silents. A screen had appeared with the eye patch lady on it.

"Hello again Doctor, How was the wedding?" she deadpanned.

"Fine, except for you know, the universe being destroyed, your cronies ambushing area 52, and suddenly waking up in a word where everything happens at once. On second thought that isn't fine, it's rubbish. How was your death?" the Doctor said.

"Why don't you find out, you and your friends?"

The Doctor hid the detonator behind his back while he was busy talking with the woman on the holographic screen. He said "What do you want now?"

"Your death, Your real death, oh and the chronosteel too." she said

"Why the chronosteel?" he said.

"I have my reasons, and besides it's not like you'll live to see them fall into my hands." she said. The Doctor looked to the room behind him and saw that all his companions had escaped.

"Think again. Germonio!" The Doctor threw the dynamite and pressed the detonator. He ran as far as he can marking himself with tally marks as he ran. Part of the mountain above them had collapsed. When the piece the Time Lord threw at the aliens had exploded The Time Lord was far away from the blast.

Meanwhile The rest of the group ran as far away as they can from the blast zone. When they were several dozen yards The explosions had stopped. Pollux had noticed some one in the distance. The crystal girl went ahead while the others ran another way. The figure looked familiar. Pollux took a closer look.

"Castor?" said Pollux. Indeed it was her twin.

Meanwhile the others went to rest. Cheerilee and her friends were taking care of the fillies, while Pinkie Pie and Twilight did a roll call.

"Where Pollux?" Twilight said.

Pygmalion had realized that they lost her. He went back the way they came. Rory and Amy asked their daughter and Daedalus to lead the group back to the complex and then followed Pygmalion.

Back with the crystal twins. Castor was limping. Pollux realized that Icarus was dead, and that her sister had lost an arm and a piece of her leg. The perception filter broke during the fall showing her as a statue made of amethyst. The gem on Castor's forehead started glowing as well. Pollux realized that Castor died as well. She lamented her loss and cried.

When Castor was a few inches away from her twin she put Icarus' corpse down and said "Don't worry." She removed the black tear-shaped gem from her forehead and placed it on her sister's forehead. The gem interlocked with a similar what tear-shaped gem on Pollux. the twin in white knew what was going on and said "We'll always be together forever right?"

"Of course." Castor then gave her the green gemstone she removed from Icarus' sleeve. Like Castor's gem it too glowed. The jewels on Pollux's head began to glow. When the glow faded. The statue that was once Castor broke apart, smiling. When Pygmalion, Amy and Rory found her they saw the pile and Jewels and Icarus' corpse. The Doctor had managed to find them and saw the that Pollux was crying. Pygmalion was brought to his knees by the grief of having lost one of his daughters. Until he saw the gems on Pollux's head and smiled. The Doctor went to his companions and they asked what had happened.

The doctor explained about the neural relays and how he first saw them in a library so large that it didn't need a name. And that trough it Castor and Pollux now inhabit the same body. A fact that had made Pygmalion shed more tears of happiness. But everyone saw the glowing emerald in Pollux's hand and realized that Icarus was also a data ghost. The group then went back to the other complex and the TARDIS. Knowing that Icarus was but inches away from Hades' doorstep.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 12:30 PM

River Song, Daedalus, and the 12 ponies are back in the complex near the TARDIS. Toola Roola was busy painting again. Starsong and Cheerilee were watching from a distance.

"Do you think she's hiding something?" Starsong said. She looked back at her multicolored-maned friend.

"I don't know, she's been acting different since we left Equestria." Cheerilee said.

The plum earth pony and the purple saw that the pink unicorn had left the room. They took a peek at the painting. The image was that of themselves in a weird landscape. There were spinning tops everywhere, the land was checkered, and the houses were floating. The painting itself seems chaotic.

"This looks familiar somehow." said Cheerilee. They heard some footsteps and exited the room. Toola Roola entered the room and started finishing the painting.

"Not bad." Sighed the pink unicorn. "But I still feel like something's missing." She then covered the easel and levitated it back to the TARDIS. When she went outside she saw that green pony again. Cheerilee and Starsong were watching from a distance.

"Who the hay is that?" Starsong said.

"I don't know." said Cheerilee. "I haven't seen her before and I'm sure nopony else made it to the TARDIS without us noticing.

The green unicorn was moving closer to Toola Roola and said "You know, losing a friend's trust is the fastest way of losing a friend."

"I have nothing to say to you." she said

"Keeping secrets? painting tragedies from past and future? seems like some untrustworthy acts to me." said the photo-negative double. The green unicorn looked to her side where the other two ponies were.

"Leave me alone." Toola Roola noticed her two friends spying on her and said "And leave them out of this!"

"Cats have to leave their bags to breathe, they're not like boxes you know?" The green pony vanished. Toola Roola then said "Cheerilee, Starsong, you can come out not."

the two mares were surprised by the statement. They had been found out. Cheerilee emerged from the hiding place first and said "Umm Toola Roola, who in the world was that?" Starsong then followed.

"I'll explain later, can you help me move thin inside the TARDIS?" said the pink unicorns. The other mare nodded and helped her moved the painting inside.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 1:00 PM

The Doctor's group had managed to get back to the complex. They went inside the subterranean building and found Daedalus. the scientist was relived that the Doctor and Pollux had survived. He saw the yin-yang shape on Pollux's forehead and said "Did Castor use the neural relay on Pollux?"

"Yes," said the Doctor. "and she's not the only one with access to a neural relay." He took the emerald out of the pocket. The glow was faint. Daedalus realized that it was his son emerald and said "We must make haste, there is still time to save Icarus."

"You don't mean..." said Pollux. A hologram of Castor projected out of Pollux's body. Everyone had a surprised look on their face.

"How did she do that?" Rory said.

"The neural relay had transferred her consciousnesses into the Pollux's databanks." Pygmalion said.

"In essence they are like two people in the same body. Castor will live on in her sister's body. We must find some emeralds quickly." Daedalus said with a sense of urgency.

"But that experiment not even tested yet, we need to synchronize the crystals to the brainwaves to even attempt something as risky." Pygmalion said.

"Pond, Rory get River." the Doctor said. The Pond-Williams did as he asked and the Doctor took out his sonic screwdriver and said "I can help with the frequency issue."

"OK Doctor." Daedalus said. They went to work making a body for Icarus.

??? ??:00

Icarus was running away from something. There was 108 planets in the sky around him. They ate trapped orbiting the small Dyson Sphere in the center. The sphere he is running in. There were screams everywhere. Multiple aliens were chasing him as well as other aliens speaking of 108 still points, and 88 screaming stars. Icarus tripped and fell. and fell unconscious as a white light engulfed him.

Olympus Limited Crystal Mines (HD 59686 b) 3:00 PM

Icarus had opened his eyes and saw that he was back at the complex. His father and Pygmalion was here, as was the Doctor, River, Amy, Rory, and the twins.

"What happened?" he said. He looked at his hand, It was green and crystalline. He remembered falling from the sky earlier. He thought "I should have been dead."

"Indeed," said River. "Apparently neural relays have been around earlier the the 51st century. Your father and the Doctor helped save your life. Cut it a little close but..."

"Oh, can't believe I forgot about the relay." Icarus said. Rory and the Doctor was applying the perception filter on the crystal body. He noticed that the twins looked different. Castor was wearing a gold shirt with an equally golden dragon on the center, as well as the beasts from the last two shirts they wore. Pollux on the other hand was a holographic image and wearing a similar shirt.

"Castor, Pollux what happened?"

Castor went up to him and said "I fell down while retrieving your neural relay. the fall had killed me but I have enough time find my sister."

"I let my sister take refuge inside my body." Said Pollux. Icarus noticed the black-and-white gemstones on castor's head. Pollux resumed "I couldn't bear the thought of losing my sister, and she couldn't stand losing you."

"Okay," said Rory. "I haven't nursed a crystal homunculus thing before but Pygmalion and I did some tests."

"And?" Icarus said.

"There are no anomalies inside the crystals. Your going to be alright."

"And the Heliotrope Golems?"

"Gone." Said Pygmalion. "We help planted some bombs of our own and together we stopped the golems."

Daedalus then joked "And brightened up own own piece of the universe in the process."

Icarus had laughed at that. For he knew that the Golems were stopped, and that the Doctor was true to his word. Everyone Lives.

After a while the Doctor had remembered that he still had the pieces of the chonosteel from the meteor. He and his companions said their goodbyes to the scientists and entered the TARDIS. The blue box then faded out of sight.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor went to the chronosteel chamber there he let the pieces go. They took their places in the room. The respective constellations then appeared along with the sign for Gemini (♊) appeared glowing a radiant orange. The Antikythera mechanism then changed it's bearings again. Now the needles point to the sign for Cancer (♋).

"That makes 18 pieces of chronosteel, 70 more to go." Said the Doctor

The mechanism had change it coordinates. The needle was stuck on Cancer. But the planets were in different points. The planets shifted again, and again, and again. The Doctor was confused by this sudden change. He took the mechanism and began to study it.

Meanwhile Rarity was busy working on her dresses. Applejack had waked in on her.

"Umm Rarity are you alright?" said Applejack.

Rarity then levitated her red glasses and said "Of course I'm fine darling. Why would you ask a question like that?"

"Because you don't even have your gemstones out. You usually have your stones out in case you want to pretty-fy your dresses. You even packed a saddle bag of them when Equestria was overrun by those silents." Said the orange earth pony.

Rarity had noticed her lack of gems near her pony-shaped mannequin. She said "Well maybe i just don't feel like gems today. I'll see you later." She then left her room.

"Something's up." said Applejack. The farm pony went to see if there's anything wrong with the fashion-obsessed mare.

Al Tarf ♋ Gateway to Dreams...

The Planet Of Lotuses 7:30 PM 7/5/3200

River Song was busy lurking around a nearby building. She overheard a conversation through a window. She went to the corner to listen

"...So Professor Morpheus, you think getting test subject is that easy?"

"Of course. We already handed out the flyers and our project can get rid of dreams."

"But sir we've been at this for 108 years now, people are dying because of this!"

"The mayor and our superiors already made it illegal for citizens not to take the substance. Visitors and scientists like us are exempt. The least we could do is try to make sure that it doesn't kill the locals."

"I guess." The first voice left. River had noticed something near the wall there. There was some chronosteel! She cant make out the rest but the center orb was a yellowish orange and had the constellation and sign for Cancer.

The Doctor had caught up to his wife. He asked her what did she found. River pointed to the spheres and the remaining scientist. One of them had a name tag that read "Morpheus: Olympus Limited's Dream R&D Section."

The Doctor and River returned to the TARDIS.

TARDIS 8:00 PM

River and the Doctor had entered the blue box. They saw that the ponies had already returned. Toola Roola was levitating a flyer. The multicolored-maned unicorn had saw that the Doctor had returned and went to him.

"Doctor," said the pink unicorn. "Do you know what this is?" She lifted the flyer up to the Doctor. The Time Lord had examined it and said "Oh, they're looking for test subjects." He then saw the contact info and saw the name Morpheus on it. He asked River and her parents to came with him.

Meanwhile Applejack and Rainbow Dash were having a chat.

"Listen, do you think that The Doctor can be trusted?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Darn Tooting." Applejack said. "Why do you think he couldn't be trusted?"

"Let's see: There's the fact that he and his buddy came into a private party..."

"Pinkie invited them, of course a private party would be unusual for her."

"Then moments when the party starts these so called [Silents] show up..."

"Yeah well, um..."

"Then they turned the population of Equestria into metal. And stopped time there. All of these events are a little too coincidental, don't you think?"

Applejack notes that her cyan friend had a point. But she is certain that she can trust the Doctor and that thinks that deep down Rainbow dash know she can trust him too.

The Time lord had returned to the control panel and explained about where the chronosteel is. Every one went to get some some sleep.

The Planet Of Lotuses 6:00 AM 7/6/3200

The Doctor and his companions have enter the building River Song was spying on the scientists. They saw a woman at the clerk. She said "And who are you supposed to be?"

The Doctor took out his psychic paper and said "I'm Dr. John Smith, everyone calls me [The Doctor]. I'm here to see someone called Morpheus."

"I see," said the secretary. "I'll call him up." she left the room. Starsong had noticed something about Toola Roola. she went to ask her if she was OK. Meanwhile Pinkie Pie was still bouncing around the room and Twilight saw some sort of monster swimming in the sky. The alien looked like a crab mixed with some sort of octopus or squid. the purple unicorn was a little interested.

The woman returned with a scientist. The scientist put his glasses back on and said "Hello. I am Professor Morpheus. Current head of the L.O.T.U.S. You must be the Doctor right?"

The Time Lord said "Yes." He went up to him and asked him a few question taking out the tube from the other day.

"What in the world did was in this tube? I saw a man take something out of it and then die shortly after."

The scientist looked at the tube very carefully and said "It's the drug Tartarus. It's was made from the Lotuses you see around you. Rumor has it that it has mysterious proprieties."

"Explain." the Time Lord commanded.

"Well apparently subject that took the drugs were sent into a dream world, sort of like a computer MMO, but...".

"...without the computer?" the Doctor said. The head scientist rubbed his blond hair and said "Yes. I was sent here by my employer to research the drug. I hoped to make the effect less lethal, and find a cure for the addition."

"I see but why?" said the Doctor. They heard something break. and found Rainbow Dash trying to fly indoors.

"Our employer Olympus Limited, is trying to force the drug on the citizens of this planet. You see the company bought the planet our several decades ago. And they think that if the people are trapped in their ideal world that they wouldn't find anything to complain about. I was transferred here shorty after they bought the planet. They think I was try to make the substance stronger, but in reality I've been working on a cure for this drug."

The Doctor has been trying to hold his rage back ever since he heard the word "force." Morpheus then handed him the chronosteel and said "I've heard a lot about you Doctor. I know what this is and I know that you are the only one who can save them from their nightmares."

He handed them the spheres. In addition to the Cancer one there were 6 other spheres. each one had the Chamaleon and Vela constellations. The Doctor had said "How do you know what the chronosteel is?"

Morpheus responded by saying "One of my friends is an Olympian. An interesting fellow called Hades. he tells me what happens at the top. And he recently he sent me a message telling me of the 88 screaming stars."

"Alright. I'll help you find the cure for this drug then. I'll get some things fro the TARDIS and be right back." Said the Doctor. The Doctor told his companions to stay here while he gets to the TARDIS.

The Planet of Lotuses 7:00 AM

Morpheus took the companions to a nearby field of the lotuses they were researching. He said "I would avoid eating this plant."

Applejack was holding back Pinkie Pie. Trying to stop her from inhaling the plants. Morpheus had left the field. followed by Amy, Rory, and River.

The ponies were busy having fun on the fields. Toola Roola was busy painting using an easel and paintbrush lent by one of the scientist. At last she had finally painted something that didn't involve any death, or destruction or anything bad. Or so she thought.

"Why are you painting yourself eating a Lotus?" Twilight said. She came from behind and surprised the pastel pink unicorn. Toola Roola Had looked at the painting and indeed saw an image of her head, Red-orange-and-yellow mane and all and a lotus with bite marks. Her fears and agony had returned. Starsong and Cheerilee had saw the painting, and the artist pony try to cover it. Everyone else paid them no attention, they were busy with their own conversations.

Meanwhile Morpheus had returned to his lab and continued to study a lotus. He then noticed the Doctor's human companions had followed him.

"What do you want?" he said.

"How did you met this Hades?" she said.

Rory was busy examining the Lotus and Morpheus' notes. Morpheus then said "My brother, Thanatos was in charge of executions, He introduced me to the warden Hades, and the three of us had discussed many things. We all knew that Hades hated his job and Thanatos had a lot of issues with murdering lives even if the lives he took were murderers themselves. They quit their jobs after someone told Hades that he was his brother. That some was Max Zeus, C.E.O of Olympus Limited. I was hired shortly after Hades became an Olympian. And the previous head of the project was fired."

"There's that name again?" She was feeling worried, for all her studying and the time she spent with the Doctor she had only recently heard of this name or of Olympus Limited. She couldn't help but wonder what could this mean.

Rory had finished examining the plant and notes. Morpheus had said "I believe I am almost done with the cure but the ingredients I need to finish it can't be found here. I hope the Doctor has what I need to finish it."

Amy and Rory and noticed something in the notes.

"I think that these dreams may be separated into Layers, judging from these notes some of the data implies that there is a deeper dream in here." said Rory.

"You researched dreams?" said Amy. "When did you do this?"

"Since our honeymoon, you never know when something like the Dream Lord will pop up." said Rory. "It also might have helped to watched [Inception.]"

There was a huge crash and the group went outside. The field was a mess. Some of the plants were eaten. There was signs of a struggle. They realized that the survivors of Equestia's demise was still in the fields. They went to where they left the ponies.

TARDIS 7:30 AM

The Doctor went to place the chronosteel in the dwarf-star-alloyed room. There he let the chronosteel go and the metal took their place on the ceiling. The respective constellation had appeared and the room brightened up a little more. the Sign for Cancer(♋) had appeared in the room's ceiling a slightly yellowish-orange. "Well then, Now to find that cure." The Doctor had put some things in a small box when the phone on the TARDIS started ringing. The Doctor picked up the phone and said "Hello?"

"Doctor, we have a problem." said a voice trough the phone. It was Amy. She and Rory had saw the field where the ponies were. They were knocked unconscious and covered in tally marks, Some of the lotuses were missing, and there were dead silents around the group.

The Doctor said "I'll be right there." and left the blue box.

Merope ♋ ...And Nightmares

The Planet Of Lotuses 7:45 AM 7/6/3200

The Doctor had made it back to the tower where Morpheus had worked. He Saw that the ponies have been marked and in a sleep deeper than the deepest ocean. Rory was tending to the little ponies, trying to wake them up.

"What had just happened?" the Doctor said. The last Time Lord had noticed the tally marks on the little ponies and realized that They had appeared.

River Song and Morpheus had told the Doctor what they knew about the project.

"I think we can still save them." Rory said. the Doctor had noticed and agreed with the nurse. He said "What's your plan?"

"I don't think these victims are actually dead," said Rory. "I think they may trapped in a limbo of sorts."

The Doctor had used his sonic screwdriver to examine the ponies while everyone else responded with shock.

"That's ridiculous." said Morpheus. "The addicts are dreaming not trapped in limbo!"

"You're right, both of you." The Doctor had finished his examination. "They are trapped in a limbo of their nightmares, And they are trapped in a nexus where reality and illusion are one and the same."

"Doctor are you sure?" Morpheus said.

"Of course. But the problem is that the nexus is in the void. I have no idea how to get in without knowing how to get them out first."

"I see." Morpheus sighed. The Doctor had asked Amy, Rory and Morpheus to take care of the ponies, while he comes out to think.

??? ??:00

Rainbow Dash had just woken up in her cloud home. The rainbow maned pegasus had just came out and stretched her wings.

"Wow, what a weird dream. Must had been some party." She had noticed a note on her nightstand. The note said:

Hey Dashie, man was that party last night sure was wild. Listen I may need some help cleaning up. The cakes are coming back tomorrow. And I'm not sure if I can clean the place up all by myself.

Thanks, Your Friend Pinkie Pie

Rainbow was stumped, The note had appeared as if Rarity or Spike had written it, Nor Pinkie Pie. She considered not going to Sugarcube Corner today. But she decided to go and help her friend.

When she left her cloud home she saw something vague, A figure wearing a gas mask. The figure vanished after a second.

"Heh, must be the sun playing tricks." she said. When she got to the bakery she noticed that the mess was full of blood splats everywhere. She went further to investigate. There was several corpses, In the center of the room was a table with a cupcake. Rainbow Dash saw another note:

Thanks for helping me out today, I went to get some more cleaning supplies but I baked you this nice cupcake for your help enjoy.

"Alright!" Rainbow Dash ate the pastry and went to work on the cleanup. However when she got to the mop, she was feeling faint. She then fainted shortly after picking up the mop. A pink figure had just entered the room and dragged the unconscious blue pegasus away.

The Planet of Lotuses 8:00 AM

The Doctor was busy looking at the fields of Lotus He had one in his hand. He noticed a cloaked woman in the dis with a similar lotus.

The Doctor had walked up to her and said "Who are you?"

The clocked woman had spoken in a deep voice "I am Sirius, and I can help you save your friends." The cloaked woman had put the lotus down and walked forward. I'll see you in the gateway to dreams and nightmares." She fainted and then vanished. The Doctor had noticed bite makes on the Lotus. It was then he joked "I really hope the place I'm going to is not Trenzalore." The Time Lord had then took some wires and a metal helmets of sorts and went back to the laboratory.

??? ??:00

Rainbow Dash had woken up strapped to a table of sorts. There she saw Pinkie Pie her mane had straitened out somehow and had a knife between her smiling teeth.

Rainbow Dash had though she was going to die. Until Suddenly another Pinkie had burst in the the Bakery trying to break her friend out from her constraints. This new pinkie had her normal curly mane. The curly-maned pony had bounded over her straightened-maned counterpart and freed her friend.

The pony wielding the knife was mad. The other Pinkie said "Run." Both she and Rainbow Dash had left. They had ran down several hallways, and several corridors until they saw no trace of the Pinkie Pie that almost murdered Rainbow Dash.

The rainbow maned pegasus, confused by this turn of events said "What's going on?"

"Well let's see," she said. Several felt shapes had appeared around the two ponies as she continued. "I invited you to my home to clean the place, gave you a poisoned cupcake, strapped you to a table, almost carved you like a turkey,and then another me, that's me freed you to evade the first me." The shapes had disappeared.

Rainbow Dash was even more confused. A white gate appeared. The straight maned Pinkie had returned. The two mares then tried to open the white door and enter the other side. The other Pinkie was getting closer. The Door was opening slowly but surly. The darkened pink pony had been mere inches away from murdering herself and her friend. But the door was open enough for them to escape and shut it tight.

The curly-maned Pinkie and Rainbow dash breathed a sigh of relief. they had escaped certain death for now. They seemed to be nearby Fluttershy's cottage. The two decide to see if she's here.

The Planet of the Lotuses 8:11 AM

The Doctor had returned to the laboratory and said "I have an idea." He then took out some wires and a monitor.

"Doctor what are you doing?" River said.

"Beginning my rescue. Pond, Rory how are the ponies?" he then pulled up a chair and started wiring the monitor to the nearby computers and the helmet.

"Not doing well I'm afraid." Rory said.

"The Doctor had put on the helmet and gave River his sonic screwdriver. He then took out the lotus.

"Doctor what are you doing!?" Morpheus said.

"Going to hell and back." The Doctor sat down said "I'll bring them back I promise." He ate the lotus and then went into a deep slumber.

??? ??:00

The Doctor had woken up in a white void. There are several doors around him. There was a giant gate behind some of the doors.

"Well this might be interesting." he said. he opened one of the doors.

On the other side lies a land placed in eternal night. There The Doctor saw a familiar shape in the distance. It was Sirius. The cloaked woman had noticed the Doctor.

"Welcome," she said a deep voice."I sense you are here to find your friends?"

The two looked at each other The Doctor had suddenly remembered a little kid warding a gas mask. He had now idea why he thought of that. The two decide to join forces and find the ponies trapped in this dream scape.

??? ??:00

The Cutie Mark Crusaders had woken up in the Everfree Forest. Apple Bloom was a little confused.

"How did we we get here?" she said. The three fillies had some headaches from waking up.

"I don't know." Scootaloo said.

"Weren't we at some planet with lotuses?" Sweetie Belle said. The other two fillies had remembered that part but though it was a dream.

"Lets get back to Ponyville." Apple Bloom said. The Crusaders decided to find their way back home. They saw a figure moving in the distance and decided to follow her.

Eventually they were at an unknown part of the forest. There was a sign that read "Welcome to Sunny Town". The ponies there had no cutie marks. Just like the Crusaders. Apple Bloom thought this place seemed familiar. These townsponies had noticed the fillies around and one of them who eerily resembles Pinkie Pie said "Hello I'm Three Leaf, How do you do?"

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo introduced themselves and asked Three Leaf where the pathway to Ponyville is. Three Leaf answered "Ponyville? haven't heard of it. Maybe our mayor knows" The fillies went to the town hall to speak with the mayor. One of the ponies had moaned "it's happening again."

??? ??:00

The Doctor and Sirius had made to a small town. populated by ponies. Both the Doctor and Sirius knew something was up. As they both saw Equestria being stopped in time and it's inhabitants turned to the chronosteel. They saw a certain tree-house in the center of town.

"I think I know who we'll find here." he said. They went inside the tree and saw Twilight Sparkle. The purple unicorn was frantically pacing around making a circular rut so deep they could barely see her.

"I can't believe this something's wrong. There's no way that..." She saw the Time Lord and cloaked woman and realized that she may not be where she think she is. "Doctor? but that means..." The Time Lord had explained that this is a dreamlike reality, caused by the lotuses.

"...But how, I don't remember eating the lotuses." she said.

"We saw tally marks on you when you were unconscious. I think the Silents had ambushed you and made you eat the lotus." he said. Sirius had been locking for clues.

"But how? why?" said Twilight. "This makes no sense!"

"If you die in a dream, you wake up in reality." said the Doctor. "But what happens when you die in reality?"

"You die period." said Sirius. "That's why it's called reality."

"The Problem is that the lotuses somehow put our consciousnesses inside a dreamlike state. The Dream is the reality and the reality is the dream. It's like Schrodinger's cat. but without the box, or the cat." The Doctor had another flash of memory, this time he remembers battling Cybermen, they were different from the ones the Doctor usually faced, they had a C on their chest-plates.

"Do you know where the others are?" Sirius said.

Twilight had noticed that she never met the cloaked woman before. She asked who she is. But the woman didn't answer. The purple unicorn then stated that she haven't seen her friends since she got here. A door had suddenly appeared. The trio have opened it and found themselves back in the void where the Doctor found himself. Another door was cracked open. And they went inside.

Asellus ♋ Hymn of the Blanks

??? ??:00

The Crusaders had entered the town hall. There was nothing there. Not a single soul. The 3 fillies had left. They bumped into another pony.

"Off, oh hello, My names Grey Hoof. I'm in charge of parties." he said.

"Do you know how to get back to Ponyville?" Apple Bloom said.

"Ponyville um no sorry, we have everything we would ever need here in Sunny Town. So there's no need to go ouside." Grey Hoof then left. Sweetie Belle noticed something sticking out of the ground. The white unicorn filly went to check it out. She unearthed a red gemstone.

'Maybe Rarity is here as well?' she thought. She returned to her friends.

The 3 fillies had noticed that a stallion was inside a house. He seemed to be sad. Apple Bloom was having the strangest feeling of Deja Vu. The Stallion had noticed Sweetie Belle's gemstone.

"Is that a Ruby?" he said.

Sweetie belle took out the red gemstone and said "Yeah, you can have it if you wnat." with a big smile on her face. The stallion had picked up the ruby and said a simple thanks.

"Hey," said Scootaloo "How come you and everypony else don't have your cutie marks?"

"Um cutie whats? I'm sorry I don't know what you're talking about. Thanks for the Ruby." The stallion had left to see another pony across from the building. The three fillies heard someone crying and went inside.

They found another pony and a small crank. Scootaloo had picked up the crank. The mare that was crying said "It's always the same, another party, another death, more victims." She then looked at the fillies and said "Get as far as you can from this place!" and stormed off.

"Weird." Apple Bloom said.

"Try creepy." Said Scootaloo. The three then left the building.

??? ??:00

The Doctor, Sirius and Twilight found themselves in a catwalk of sorts. The Doctor looked at the cloaked woman and remembered being on a game show. Twilight saw Rarity and Applejack being chased by creepy paparazzi. They decided to investigate what's going on.

Sirius had took out a stun gun to stun the crowd. The Doctor was a little impressed. He said "Let me guess, You're from Torchwood?" The Doctor had another vision, this time including both The Cybermen from an earlier memory and the Daleks and pondered on her true identity. The cloaked woman said "No."

Twilight Sparkle had reunited with Rarity and Applejack. She explained that they are in a dream. A door had appeared and the six had entered the unusual pathway.

??? ??:00

Toola Roola was busy in an art studio in Manehatten. She was painting several pictures on her easel. Until the door opened. The multicolored-maned unicorn had went to check it out. She saw her father in the entrance, and gulped.

"Hello daughter of mine." he said. He was levitating an axe with his blue horn. Toola Roola gulped and said "Hello Dad."

"I hear you're giving up painting? Why are you giving up your special talent."

The pink unicorn had said with a tinge of nervousness "I felt I was using the tragedy of others and I didn't want to hurt anyone anymore." She took a look at the axe and there was blood on the blade. The stallion looked at the axe and saw his red-orange-and-yellow mane reflect off the surface. His daughter saw several blue and purple hairs on the weapon.

"You don't want to use others tragedy for your art?" he said.

"No, you didn't..." said the multicolored-maned unicorn.

"I did. And I'll give you a tragedy to use in your paintings!" He started swinging the ax at Toola Roola. She artist barely dodged the bladed weapon and escaped her farther. She hid in the bathroom. She look around the stalls and though she was safe until...

"HERE'S JOHNNY!" The blue unicorn made a big gaping hole in the wall. Toola Roola tried to escape her father. But he was too strong, too fast. She tripped and fell into a trapdoor. She closed the vertical pathway and barricaded it. She heard some trotting and feared the worst until the sound slowly moved away. Toola Roola was safe...for now. She decided to rest.

The party in Sunny Town was underway. The trio of fillies had no way to get back home. They were stuck in this forgotten town. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were worried about their sisters. Scootaloo on the other hoof was just worried about herself and her friends.

"Well We can call ourselves Cutie Mark Crusader Losers." she sighed. "We can't even find a way out of this town, let alone our cutie marks." She moved the crank from earlier around the table.

Apple Bloom noticed a shadow move in the distance, leaving hoof prints everywhere. She decided to follow the shadow. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo went after her in response. Eventually they found a small house with a nearby well. The well was missing something. Apple Bloom tried opening the door. "It's locked." she said.

Scootaloo had examined the well. The orange filly had saw a small hole on one the rods propping the roof up. 'I wonder...' she thought. The orange filly place the crank in the hole. The crank fits perfectly. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle had noticed this and together twisted the crank until a bucket emerged from the well. The bucket had a rusty key in it. Sweetie Belle took the key and opened the door.

The room was dark with the only light coming from the fireplace. The Cutie Mark Crusaders had examined the place for a map of the forest. They found nothing.

"Well that was a bust." Scootaloo said. the fireplace had just gone out just as they were about to leave. The fillies thought that was strange and decided to investigate. They looked at the fireplace. They saw a pony skeleton burned and nearly indistinguishable from the ash that was the firewood. The skull had a big hole in it. The crusader had screamed at the sight and ran away from the house. The sky became red as blood and the moon had changed as well. There was a face on it now, with deep black eyes and a red iris. The newly acquired mouth was perpetually open and showing 16 teeth. For some reason the expression on the moon was that of a psychopath. And it appeared to be inching closer to the planet.

Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie had entered Fluttershy's cottage. They saw a hidden trapdoor in the center.

"I don't remember seeing this." Rainbow Dash said. "First the cupcakes then this, what is going on!?" Pinkie Pie shrugged and the duo decided to go down the trapdoor. They saw a laboratory at the end of this path. There they saw Fluttershy. She seemed to feeding a baby bottle to somepony else. The cyan pegasus and pink earth pony went to lake a closer look. They saw the pony being fed trying to escape, her mouth moving to avoid the bottle. They heard the other only moan as the normally meek pegasus was uncharacteristically forcing the bottle down her throat. Rainbow saw that the pony being fed the bottle was...

"...Fluttershy?" Rainbow Dash was shocked. Not at the revelation that there were two Fluttershys but the fact that one of them was acting unlike her normal self. The first Fluttershy had left the room. When she exited. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie decide to see if the other Fluttershy was alright. For some reason this Fluttershy had a diaper on her.

The cream colored pegasus was strapped to the table having been made unconscious by the drink. Pinkie Pie said "Are you ok?" and poke her in the chest. The other Fluttershy started waking up and then started crying.

"You shouldn't have done that." It was the first Fluttershy. Only something looked different. There were buttons where her eyes should had been. "And I was just looking forward to being my own mother too."

"What have you done to Fluttershy!?" Rainbow Dash said. Pinkie was busy trying to free the Fluttershy strapped to the table.

"I just gave her some foalmula." said the other Fluttershy. "You see I wanted to be a mother for quite some time now." Her voice was distorting somehow. The walls were melting around the ponies. Pinkie had managed to free her friend. "Foalmula is a wonder thing. Abe to regress the brain to an infantile state. Oh don't worry the effects are nor permanent...in small doses."

The now infant-minded Fluttershy had took a long look at her counterpart and stared crying, and crying and crying until she cried her consciousness out. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie had been shock by this chain of events. The rainbow maned pegasus glared at the other Fluttershy and said "What did you do?"

The other Flutershy stared to change. Tentacles started to emerge form her body, her forehooves had turned into crab claws, and the rest of her body had changed into a grotesque jumbled mess of biomass. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie took the comatose Fluttershy and started to run. They entered a long corridor. But the corridor was stretching out. They saw a glowing white door at the other end. They tried to get to it. But behind them what used to be the other Fluttershy had turned into a black hole behind them and are sucking them in.

Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and And a still sleeping Fluttershy was trapped in the back hole's gravity. They were trapped. all seem lost for them. until the door opened and a lasso came out and tied the three of them together. Rainbow could make out Applejack, Twilight, And Rarity's silhouettes pulling the rope toward the door. There were also two humanoid silhouettes there as well but she couldn't make them out. Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy had made it through the door and the cyan pegasus and pink earth pony had closed it. They fainted when the door closed.

??? ??:00

"I think she waking up."

"Are you sure Doctor? Is she alright?"

"Is she going to be ok?"

"Do you have any snacks?"

"Pinkie, this is serious."

Rainbow Dash had awakened in an glowing white void. She saw her friends were around her. She also saw the Doctor from her "dreams" and a cloaked woman. "Am I dreaming?" she said.

The Time Lord had said "Yes you are. You've been dreaming ever since you woke in your bed." The Doctor and Rainbow's friends reexplained everything that happened to this point. Including the fact that they are trapped in a dreamlike reality. The rainbow-maned pegasus was remembering all the events that took place before this and realized that there was a memory right before she slept that she couldn't remember. Once the Doctor had finished his exposition he said "Well, it feels like I'm talking to myself, again." He left the see the cloaked woman. This time remembering the first time he encountered the Slitheen.

Sirius was busy looking for the next door. The Doctor walked up to her and said "Who are you?"

"Just nobody you know." she lied.

"Nobody I know but who knows me?" He thought 'Well by this point that knocks River Song out of the question.' He knew that the cloaked woman was lying But before he could ask again there was another door had appeared. the group of 8 had decided to enter the door.

??? ??:00

Toola Roola was still hiding inside the cellar. She hadn't heard anything from her bloodthirsty father lately. She kicked the barricade off with the force of 2 ponies. The multicolored-maned unicorn saw a glowing door and decided to enter it. There she saw Cheerilee and Starsong running from an angry mob of sorts. The pink unicorn was a little confused. They saw her and told her to run. She saw another mob like this one but bigger, stampeding toward the three mares. The pink artist unicorn had decided to run with her friends.

Eventually they had evaded the mob. Toola Roola went up to Starsong and said "What had happened here Satrsong?

"Concert..." She was panting the entire time. "...Bad voice...angry mob...Cheerilee chased by roaches...madness."

The pink unicorn was a little confused about the roaches. They saw a door similar to the one Toola Roola had entered and decided to enter it.

Sunny Town was deserted. there was nopony there except the Cutie Mark Crusaders. The fillies were a little scared.

"Hello? Hello!" Sweetie Belle said. They saw a figure in the distance. It was Grey Hoof but he looked different, in fact he almost resembled a changeling. The stallion walked forward and said "We had no choice, she was gonna spoil the party."

The Crusaders gulped a little bit and then Sweetie Belle said "Who was gonna spoil the party?"

"Her!" The stallion had lunged at the fillies who dodged the attack. They ran as fast as they can. They saw another changing-like pony. The changed pony said "The curse had befallen her. She had the mark. She HAD to go!" The three fillies ran even faster then before. They were at the town entrance. But then even more of the zombified ponies had surrounded them.

The were slowly but surely moving for the fillies. But one of them had emerged from the crowd and was surprisingly standing between the Crusaders and Them.

The pony said "Fools, even in death they still don't get it. I should had protected her but I made my choice. This our everlasting punishment. Our silence had fallen. This is what we deserve." Her eyes were shedding tears and she "Now run! Run as far away from here!" The the fillies were grateful for her assistance. The fillies had ran away while the one pony defending them charged forward into the horde of zombies.

??? ??:00

The Doctor's group had found themselves in a deep forest. There was a field of blue flowers behind them. and the sky was blood red.

"Well should have gone deeper." deadpanned the Doctor. He looked at the mysterious woman and had another vision. This time at was a series of visions. The first of witch was him telling a teenage girl to run, the second was that same teenager competing on a game show, and the last were the words "Bad Wolf." The Doctor wasn't sure but he knew he'd seen this person before.

Twilight Sparkle had noticed another door. Toola Roola, Starsong, and Cheerilee had came out. They regrouped and explained the events they had went through. They heard screams in the distance.

"Never thought I would hear that again." the Doctor deadpanned. They decided to follow the sounds. The sky above then showed the moon again appearing several times bigger and with an unusual face on it.

??? ??:00

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were running away from the zombies. Corpses were rising out of the ground. The fillies were hiding in a dark area of the forest. They saw footprints there. They followed the trail, hoping to find a way out of the forest. At the end they saw a pony, or rather a ghost of the pony.

"I am sorry." said the ghost pony. "I didn't mean to bring you into this, I was just curious."

"That's okay. Ah don't blame you." Apple Bloom said.

"You were just trying to make a friend, right?" Sweetie Belle said.

"Could have fooled me." Scootaloo deadpanned. Apple Bloom had nudged the orange pegasus filly. The ghost introduced herself as Ruby. The fillies had notice a magnifying glass cutie mark on her pale gray flank. Multiple zombies started emerging from the shadows.

"Your cutie mark," said Apple Bloom. "A magnifying glass?"

"Turns out I'm really good at finding things." said Ruby. "I finally understand what it means now, and I promise I will find you a way out of this!" A white doorway had appeared in the back of the room. Ruby and the Cutie Mark Crusaders had entered the passageway.

??? ??:00

A doorway had suddenly appeared in the path the Doctor's group was taking. The ponies had stopped in their tracks. but the Time Lord and Sirius were still moving. The Doctor had realized that time had stopped moving for everyone but them.

"What did you do?" he said

"I need to speak with you." Sirius said. The Doctor had noticed something familiar about the woman. She handed him a jade crystal and said "You will need this." She resumed time. The door had started opening. everyone had entered the room. The moon was closer than before.

??? ??:00

The Doctor's group found themselves in a different void. There was a giant monolith in front of them. The Cutie Mark Crusaders had met up with the others, bringing with them Ruby. Everyone had noticed something about her. The Doctor had said to the ghost "You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?"

The ghost nodded and said "Throughout Equestria, no throughout all universes, relics of the past lay forgotten, never resting, awaiting recognition."

"Was Sunny Town one of those relics?" Apple Bloom said.

"Oh I've heard of that place rumor has it a Cutie Pox outbreak had emerged there 670 years ago." Twilight said.

Ruby then continued "Some time ago time and space had disintegrated around us. Then regenerated in all universes. The result had destroyed the walls of the void. as a result time had rewritten itself. And worlds that weren't meant to interact were free to do so."

Sirius had been taken aback by this knowledge. she then thought of her family and friends in the dimension she was living.

"Thanks for taking care of my sister and her friends. Can you tell us what this rock is for?" Applejack said.

"Maybe it has gemstones like the rock Rarity had found?" Pinkie Pie said.

The ghost had walked in front of the stone and a passage had appeared. It read with odd capitalization:

a GotterdAmmerung that taken time and space wiLL be undone. the legend of oncomIng storms will end when a group of powerful individuals FREe unspeakable evils to destroY all Worlds. In the Legacy of desoLation. Reality wIll burn Starting and Ending with 108 StILl points. and 88 scrEaming stars. a New rapture emerges to bring forth the only people who can stop the disaster. but will they be enough? Can they bring themselves to the Edge of time? What can they do? Is it even possibLe? only time wiLl tell, and only then will everything FALL.

The Doctor and Sirius had written down the words with the hopes of deciphering the confusing message. When they were finished they put the note in their pockets. The monolith transformed into a gate and opened.

Rubt said "This gate shall lead to your awakening. You must find more of the relics or else they will destroy all reality itself."

"Thank you." Apple Bloom said. "See you later!" Everyone but Ruby entered the gate.

"See you later friend." had said. The moon had dropped down on Ruby as the gates closed, destroying everything outside the gate.

The Planet of Lotuses 6:00 PM 6/7/3200

The Doctor and the ponies had awoken. River, Amy and Rory were relived. Professor Morpheus however was a little concerned.

"You managed to bring them back. I'm impressed Doctor." he said.

"Yes I did, now I think we have a cure to finish." The Doctor said.

"Won't be necessary. You appeared to have cured the addicts from within." he then directed everyone's attention to a nearby window. There they saw the populace acting more alive, like a dark shadow has been lifted from their lives. River Song gave him his sonic screwdriver back. The Doctor noticed some specks on the field of lotuses and examined the plant.

"Something wrong Doctor?" River said.

The Time Lord had finished his examination and said "There's the problem."

"What problem?" Morpheus said.

"When did these spots appear?" The Time Lord said while showing him the lotus.

"An hour before you woke up. When the others started to return to their usual selves. why?" Morpheus said.

"What so special about some spots anyway?" Rainbow Dash said.

"What's special is these spots are, well was, psychic pollen." The Doctor said. "From the looks of things they been around longer then the people have."

"What you don't mean..." Amy said.

"Someone's been to the Candle Meadow and stated harvesting it. Then genetically modifying it. and I think it may have something to do with your superiors."

"I see," Morpheus said "I'll check things out. Good luck Doctor."

The Doctor and his companions said their goodbyes and went to the TARDIS. Unaware that the creature above them had vanished.

TARDIS ??:00

the Doctor went back to the dwarf star room. He had forgotten to check the Antykythera mechanism last time he was here. The device's needle now points to Leo (♌). The doctor felt something in his pocket. It was the crustal Sirius gave him and the note he written in the dream world. The Doctor was a little perplexed but thinks that both items will be important soon he put them back in his pocket and left.

The Planet of Lotuses 8:55 PM

Sirius in her time machine, putting something on the sleeve of her coat. Flitter and Cloudchaser walked in.

"So did you get a good sleep?" Cloudchaser said.

"it's time to leave. our work is done here." She had the microphone off. She started the time machine and left.

Meanwhile back at the tower Morpheus was ready to leave. But Hermes just appeared at the door.

"Ah Hermes." Moprheus deadpanned. "Got any messages." The cloaked messenger took the wings off the sleeves and made a screen out of them.

"Hades?" Morpheus was surprised. "How did yo-"

"Relax." said Hades as he combed his blond hair. "I asked Hermes if he wanted to help us. Turns out he wants to get back at Maxie here for what he done to his children. Listen, our [benefactors] are coming here. evacuate everyone and get off the planet before they stop time here."

"Ok then. Tell Thanatos I said hi." Morpheus said. Hermes took the screen apart and put the wings back on his shoes and left. Morpheus went to evacuate the planet. a few hours later he had everyone boring the spaceships. All but one of them had been boarded. His own flight. However when he got on the spaceship, He saw multiple Silents. With them was Trixie. Now strapped to another device. The eye-patched woman had entered.

"tsk, tsk." she said "Just not content with a bunch a zombies running around, are you?"

The woman and the silents had disappeared the machine had started up. The blue unicorn was screaming agony as a white blast engulfed the planet. The world was now stilled And the unicorn fainted. Some of the Silence had returned. Somehow they were able to move even in the entropy. They took the unicorn and the device and vanished once more.

Regulus ♌ The Lion's Share

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was bust studying the Antikythera mechanism. Rainbow Dash went in the room. She said "How long did you travel in this box."

He was tinkering with the device. He said "I dunno, could be a few seconds, could be a few centuries. It's kinda timey-wimey that way. Why do you ask?"

"No reason." She lied. River Song entered the the room. She asked why the rainbow maned pegasus was here. Rainbow Dash left the room. Meanwhile Twilight was reading another book in the library. She was amazed by all the stories this universe had to offer. She found a book with "Sherlock Holmes" on the cover. She was about to read it when the Doctor said that the TARDIS was about to land. She took the book and put it in a saddlebag.

Museum of London 3:00 PM 6:07 PM 7/19/2011

In the Museum of London was opening a new exhibit today. Sherlock Holmes and John Watson was busy checking it out. The detective went to a display showing a lion's hide. The mane appeared to had been burning like the flames of Prometheus. There was a plaque that read "Hercules and the Nemean Lion." he took out his magnifying glass and began examining it. The detective said "This is definitely the skin of the Nemean Lion."

"But Shelock," said John. "How can you tell this apart from any other tanned hide?"

"Elementary. The hide had some specks of gold showing through the dirt. the fabric that lined the skin was made only crude methods, and finally if you look closely you could see that there was almost no scratches. The carcass was unearthed from small part of Greece near the river of Styx, you think there would be more than a few scratches here and there."

"I see." John was not impressed. Having known the detective's talents for several months now. The detective said "Must have been fun to live as Heracles. The danger, The excitement, The fact that this skin makes it easier to do what we love without fear of retribution." The duo had left the museum as it was about to close. They passed a security guard on the way back. The guard was cross with him.

They returned to their flat. The detective had noticed there was plaster some of the walls. But he didn't care about it one bit. John went back to his computer to blog about today, a little bored that there wasn't any new cases lately. They both went to sleep after a few hours.

London 8:00 PM

The TARDIS had landed on a street corner several blocks from the museum. The Doctor had advised the ponies to stay in the TARDIS this time. Rainbow Dash was not pleased with this. The Doctor went out to search for the chronosteel. He saw an elderly couple on the sidewalk but he paid it no mind. He also saw a man in a business suit and a woman wearing some sort of Victorian style dress. But he paid them no mind and continued his search and eventually returned to the blue box.

TARDIS 10:00 PM

Toola Roola walked around the TARDIS looking for Rarity. She saw the white unicorn with Fluttershy. They noticed the multicolored-maned unicorn and Rarity said "Hello, is there anything you need?"

"Do you know how to ward off nightmares?" Toola Roola said. She noticed that Rarity had put her gems away. The white unicorn said no and left. Toola Roola went back to her room. She started painting.

Meanwhile Applejack had caught up to the pink unicorn. She saw her paint on her easel. She was painting a picture a golden lion. The orange earth pony thought this was strange. but she she decided to wait until tomorrow to ask. She and the others went to sleep.

Museum of London 1:00 AM 7/20/2011

The janitor was busy cleaning the Nemean Lion exhibit when suddenly he heard something. He went to check out what the noise was. Outside the elderly couple, the woman in the dress, and the man in the business suit were sleeping in a building nearby the museum. They heard some screams and woke up. The man in the business suit went out check out the noise. The elderly couple and woman then followed. They saw a corpse in the street. They went to see what had happened. There was no cars to run him over, and there was no people to kill him They saw no blood, no scratches, no cuts not a single injury. They then saw some aliens hiding in the shadows. They went to take a closer look, but before they could do so the aliens vanished and they forgot entirely about the encounter. The decided to report the death to the authorities.

Al Gieba ♌ King of Beasts

London 6:00 AM 7/20/2011

The Doctor decided to continue his search for the chronosteel. He decided to let the ponies help him with the search on the condition they remain hidden. Rainbow Dash and Starsong was flying across the roof tops searching for the metal. The rainbow-maned pegasus saw that the violet pegasus' flying seemed ... bad. They decided to back to the TARDIS.

Meanwhile Pinkie Pie and Twilight were looking nearby the TARDIS. They saw a chalk outline on the streets. They decided to go back to the TARDIS with the others.

Meanwhile the Doctor and River Song was looking near some shops. River said "Doctor Do you get the feeling that something's different?"

The Doctor did notice something off about the place. An anachronism of sorts. He answered River's question and then went to the TARDIS.

TARDIS ??:00

Rainbow Dash went to see Starsong. She found her hiding under a table and asked her why she's flying badly. She said to the cyan pegasus "I don't have as much time to practice my flying as you you know." She saw someone else coming and left.

Meanwhile Twilight was reading "A Study in Scarlet". The Doctor came in the library. and saw that the purple unicorn was reading the book. He noticed something on the book though. He said "Sherlock Holmes, huh?" The two were discussing the great detective and the Time Lord was feeling something. He thought 'something's not right about this time.' He left the room followed by Twilight as well as her friends. They headed to the station.

London. 9:00 AM

Sherlock and John was in the station with Inspector Lestrade. The elderly couple, woman in the Victorian dress, and man in a business suit was there as well.

"So let me get this straight? You claimed to had seen the murderers of a janitor, and you don't even remember them?" said Lestrade. John Watson was answering his mobile phone.

Sherlock was investigating the street. The Doctor had entered the street. He noticed the chalk outline and said "Someone's been murdered I see?"

The detective took out his magnifying glass and examined the outline he said "Well it appears that the janitor was working for the Museum of London. He must have been dead since midnight or so. Now who are you?"

The Doctor introduced himself as John Smith yet again and took out his psychic paper. Sherlock took the card and said "This card is blank. I deduce you're not from around here and that you not who you say you are. Tell me, should I call you John Smith?"

"Just [The Doctor] will suffice." The Time Lord said.

Sherlock took a look at the Doctor's tweed jacket and said "You are not the only traveler visiting here. You're looking for something. An artifact of sorts You also remind me of John Watson. A veteran of war. A war that only you survived I take it."

The Doctor was shocked. He said "How do you know ..."

The detective interrupted by saying "Well that ensemble of your looks like something a hipster would wear, Your eyes have expressed many losses, perhaps your war had ended with the destruction of your home, and the jacket had some hair on it. I would suggest not looking like you went to the alien derby Doctor." He examined the area around him and saw some shadows. He then said "Or robbed The derby of it's steeds. Come on out I can see you."

The Doctor was surprised. he thought he went alone. Fluttershy had came out from one of behind a street corner. The Doctor was a little surprised but not impresses. rainbow dash, Applejack, Rarity, Twilight, and Pinkie Pie had came out afterwards. Sherlock was somewhat befuddled by this. he haven't seen anything like these ponies before.

"What are you doing here?" The Time Lord said. "You can't let the populace see you."

Rainbow Dash said "Well we can't look for the chronosteel with you talking to weirdos like THAT!"

"Rainbow, simmer down." Applejack said. The 6 ponies then introduced themselves.

Sherlock noticed something about them. He said "You don't feel like something from this world Doctor, but they don't feel like anything from this universe. I have to I have a murder to solve. Oh how I love these murderers, always something to look forward to."

"If I may ask," Rarity said "What is your name?"

The detective would not care whether they knew his name or not. Nor would he care what befalls anyone but his friends. He simply said "Sherlock Holmes." and left. The Doctor and Twilight were confused by this response. The seven went back to the TARDIS to discuss this particular encounter.

TARDIS ??:00

"This is impossible. Sherlock Holmes should not have existed in this timeline!" The Doctor checked the date. Twilight was busy reading more Sherlock Holmes books. Trying to figure out if the man they met was really Sherlock Holmes.

"Well you did say that time is in flux."

The group was discussing the encounter with Sherlock Holmes for several minuets and then dropped the subject. Meanwhile Toola Roola was busy painting in her room. She was painting a large golden lion chasing herself and her friends.

Starsong entered the room and said "Do you know anything about flight?" The multicolored-maned unicorn said no and they left the room.

Later, The Doctor was checking recent history for anything on the detective and a blog done by a "Dr. John Watson." He read through the contents and found out the address where they live. He decided to take the ponies and River Song with him and went to the flat where the detective and his blogger lived.

London 7:00 PM

Sherlock and John had returned from the investigation. The detective had said "Well tomorrow will be entertaining." John went to his computer to blog. He had found that his posts have many comments asking why his mustache wasn't in the Olympics yet. He typed down his thoughts of their case. When he finished he heard several noises from another room and wondered what the detective was up to. But decided he would ask tomorrow and went to rest. For tomorrow they would meet the eyewitnesses of the murder.

Zosma ♌ The Lion Sleeps Tonight

London 5:00 AM 7/21/2011

Sherlock had woken up early to check a little experiment. He had some bees trapped inside some liquid substance. John had just woken up. He saw the bees that the detective put in a jar. He said "What are you doing?"

"Checking to see how it takes for the bees to die in perflurocarbons." Sherlock said. The bees were buzzing around in fear. "Fascinating. They seem to die much more slowly in fluorocarbons. Why won't the die already!"

"But Sherlock how..." John decided he doesn't want to know how the bees were surviving despise being submerged. "Oh never mind."

One of the bees had dropped to the bottom of the jar, dead. The detective said "Yes, yes, the first casualty. isn't it wonderful." He put on a deerstalker hat and hid his face.

John heard several knocks and opened the door. It was the Doctor and River Song. The Time Lord said "Hello is this 221B Baker Street?" John heard some giggling from one of the bushes. The blogger was perplexed by this encounter.

John then said "Yes, do you have a case for Sherlock?"

The Doctor said yes. John then saw a pink hoof extend from a behind a corner. He decided he had to little sleep last night and went to get the detective. The Doctor and River went in after.

Meanwhile the 6 ponies were behind the corner. Applejack and Rarity were holding back Pinkie Pie. Twilight, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were trying calm her down.

"I can't believe we get to investigate another case?" Pinkie said. "I wonder if this will be like that train ride with the cake, and the mule, and the griffin, and..." Rainbow Dash covered the pink mare's mouth with her hoof.

Twilight was still reading another book. She said "Wow I can't believe that this Sherlock Holmes wound up here."

"Well he is an anomaly." Rainbow Dash said. Still trying to keep Pinkie quiet. She said "Hey wait how come the doctor had these books when Sherlock was here?"

"Well I guess the author was writing a biography of his life under an alias." Twilight said.

Meanwhile inside Sherlock's flat. The detective had finally witnessed the death of several bees. He noticed the Doctor and said "Hello Doctor, I knew we'd meet again. tell me, how are the little ponies?"

"Ponies?" said John. "What Ponies?"

"John, would you please get the mail? I'm expecting a package form Mycroft." said the detective. John decided to get the mail thinking that his partner had gone mad, again. He went to the mailbox.

He opened the mail box. Indeed there was a package from Sherlock's brother. He took the package out. He saw a pink hoof sticking out from the corner again. He went to investigate.

Meanwhile Sherlock was taking with River and the Doctor. He took a close look at the Doctor's wife and said "Well where did you have your wedding?"

"Wedding?" River said.

"Your wedding to this man. Where did you have it? The pyramids of Giza? An American secret base? Another timeline?"

River was impressed. She said to the Doctor "He's good."

"How did you know?" The Doctor said.

"Well then reek of an amalgamation of decaying flesh and fresh flowers to me. I deduced that time travel would have to be involved. Your eyes give the look of someone as old as Cthulhu if not older, both of you, finally I stayed up all night researching alien invasions and other illogical catastrophes and one name kept popping up: [Doctor.] [Doctor Who?] I would ask but I feel that your name would have to be important to all creation if you went to great lengths to hide it [John Smith.]" He said the last two words sarcastically. The Doctor was a little shocked having previously though that he rid the internet of any public information pertaining to his adventures.

They heard John knocking 4 times. Sherlock and the others went to the entrance and opened the doors. The blogger said "Do these ponies belong to you?" The 6 ponies were behind him. Pinkie Pie was still talking. Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle was putting their respective hooves on their faces. River was surprised. The Doctor and Sherlock less so. Everyone then went inside.

London 7:00 AM

The detective went to get something from his room John followed. Sherlock had taken out a small elephant statue.

"What's that?" John said.

"An elephant to put in the living room. Did you get he package?" Sherlock said.

John handed a gift-wrapped box. He then said "Where did you get that?"

"Thank you. Oh and I bought it with your credit card."

John was shocked. He said "You did what!? I use that to pay for rent!"

"The rent was not that expensive." Sherlock said. John was mad but decided to wait until later. The odd duo went back to the living room. There everyone was introduced. He put the elephant statue.

Sherlock also put the box down and said "is this what you're looking for?" He opened the box. Unbelievably inside was some chronosteel. The sphere had the constellations of Leo, Leo Minor, Sextans, Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, and Draco. Everyone was surprised. Mostly the Doctor. The one with the Leo constelation was a golden yellow and also had the sign of the constellation on it.

The Time Lord was a little stunned. He said "Where did you get this?"

"My brother Mycroft is currently vacationing in Florida. He saw a woman in a black cloak who gave them to him. She said to give it to somebody called [The Doctor.] She also told him he will come to my flat the day the spheres arrive." He took out his magnifying glass and examined the spheres. He heard faint screams from the metal and deduced that those are the inhabitants of the world where he know the ponies came from. The detective said "When did they turn?"

"Beg pardon?" Applejack said.

"When did they turn? The inhabitants of your world. A world full of frolic and rainbows, now a wasteland of time. A silent place." The detective had gave the spheres to the Doctor and his group and said. "Well doesn't matter. I have my own mystery to solve. Take the metals and go." The detective had left with John Watson. The Doctor's group decided to take the spheres back to the TARDIS.

TARDIS ??:00

Meanwhile in the blue box. Amy and Rory were looking around the place.

"Amy, are you sure that the other screwdriver didn't fall off the TARDIS?" he said.

They were looking for the missing laser screwdriver. Unaware that it's not in the TARDIS. Meanwhile Cheerilee and Starsong how to sing. Of course Starsong couldn't partake in the actual singing. She noticed something across the room. She went to find out what it is.

It was Toola Roola. She was picking up some paints. She said "Hey Starsong."

"Still can't break that habit?" Starsong said.

"I tried and I tried, but I still can't stop painting my nightmares."

"Toola, maybe you should stop trying. Maybe everypony will not see you as a monster."

"No I'm sure that everypony will see me as one that will kill her family for inspiration."

"No," She went to comfort her friend. "I know some ponies that will see you for the pony you are. Some who is kind and caring, maybe a little strange. But not a maniac."

The multicolored maned unicorn cried. they went back to the others. The pink unicorn offered to gave Apple Bloom and her friends some painting and crating lessons.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had went to the dwarf-star alloy room and lat the chronosteel take their course. The metal spheres embedded themselves onto the ceiling. The constelations on the spheres had appeared on the ceiling of the spherical room and the sign for Leo (♌); Yellow and bright appeared next to that of Cancer.

Rainbow Dash had entered the room. She said "So we have 6 more chronosteel pieces huh?"

"Yeah I guess so, I had lost count around 26 or so." The Doctor said. he looked around the room and said "Why are you here?"

"I ask myself the same question every time I'm in this box. Facing threats greater then we normally encounter on a much frequent basis, slim chance of even finishing this quest. and the very real possibility of dying. No offense but I don't trust you, and I trust your wife even less."

"Well River has had her share of misdeeds." he joked.

"Yeah but I bet you done more. I've seen how you affect those around you Doctor. I know that those close to you will die protecting you. Me? If I gonna die, it will be to protect my friends." The cyan pegasus had left the room, satisfied at letting some of her feelings loose. The Doctor left soon after.

Meanwhile Applejack was checking on Rarity. The orange earth pony was getting concerned over her white friend's sudden repulsion to gemstones. She enter the dressmaker's room. There she was. Trying to some gemstones on another dress. the white unicorn was trembling while she tried to attach the precious stone. She dropped the gem and said "of all the places we had to go why did it have to be that dreadful mi-- Applejack?" She just noticed the farm pony.

Applejack said "Rarity, it almost looks like you're scared of jewel-"

Rarity hushed her friend and said "Afraid of jewels, me? Don't be so ridiculous darling." She tried to levitate the rock again. "It's not like my desire of gems was responsible for all of us turning into statues now." She lied.

Applejack sensed some hypocrisy and the glimmer of truth form the lie. She said "Rarity, it wasn't your thought we got infected by that virus earlier. You didn't know what those gemstones contained."

"But it was my fault. I was the one who tried to move the pillar. I was the one who had unleashed the golems."

"But the golems were defeated sugarcube. And we were able to get a cure for that condition. You can't let one mistake ruin the rest of your life."

Rarity tried levitating the crystal again. This time she had managed to put the gemstone on the dress. She thank Applejack and both ponies left the room.

Denebola ♌ Dirge of The Beast

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor and River were preparing to to leave the TARDIS. The Time Lord wished to confront Sherlock. River said "Why on earth are you going to see the detective again?"

The Doctor took his sonic screwdriver and said "Because I want to find out why he's in this time."

Amy and Rory went with them as well. The 4 had left the blue box. They went to the police station to find out more about this man.

London 11:00 AM 7/21/2011

Sherlock and John had entered the police station there they saw Lestrade along with the witnesses.

"Ah, Sherlock." said Lestrade "You're just in time."

The detective took a look at the businessman and said "What company do you own?"

The businessman was baffled. He said "Titanic Skies Inc. How did you--"

Sherlock said "That suit and tie of yours is vintage silk. Highly expensive for this day and age. Can I see your phone?"

"Why?" said the businessman.

"I prefer to text and my own phone been spammed by odd messages lately."

The businessman gave Sherlock the phone. The detective went to to the elderly couple and said "I see you were married for the last 30 years?" Looking at the wedding band. He then took a look at the woman in the dress and said "From the looks of things you are ether a Victorian woman misplaced in time are more likely someone who likes Gothic Lolita clothing."

Everyone was a little impressed. Lestrade said "Alright anyone want to go first?"

Just then The inspector's mobile phone rang. He answered it and said "Sally, what in the world is it?"

The voice on the phone answered "Someone's here to see the freak sir. Claims to be some sort of Doctor."

Sherlock heard that last part and said "Let him in, I have a feeling this case concerns him as well."

Lestrade told his assistant to let them in. moments later The Doctor, Amy, Rory and River entered the room. By that point Sherlock noticed something on the businessman's tie. An elephant of sorts. The Doctor introduced himself and his companions and the interrogation of the murder witnesses began.

TARDIS ??:00

Apple Bloom, Applejack and Toola Roola were inside a room. The filly was painting something on an easel while the other two were taking. Applejack said "Are you sure that painting is my sister's talent?"

Toola Roola said "No I'm sure that art is part of her talent. I know an architect back in Manehatten who can teach her the skill she needs for it to shine though. In the meantime I thought I would teach her to express herself."

"Ah see." Applejack noticed something off about the multicolored-maned unicorn. "You're not hiding something are you?"

Toola Roola was shocked. She had to think of something. She said "I have no idea what you're talking about. Well time to see how she doing."

Applejack decided to leave it alone for now. They went to see Apple Bloom's painting. It was a decent portrait of her self and her friends. Applejack and Toola Roola was a little surprised at the quality. It looked a little better than an average doodle. The two mares decided to give a little praise to the painting but point out some of it's flaws. The 3 ponies left the the room. Apple Bloom was a little disappointed.

London 11:15 AM

"Alright," said Sherlock "Tell me what you saw last night." He was talking to the elderly couple.

The old woman said "Well it was dark. My husband and I were walking down the streets last night."

"At midnight?" Sherlock said.

The elder woman nodded. "When we got back to the street we saw the body. It was lying dead. We noticed some others with the dead janitor. They looked like slugs there was slime everywhere. We went to tell the police but when we got back the body was gone."

"That's preposterous!" said the woman in the dress. "I saw the body. The police outlined it and everything!"

The Doctor noticed the businessman and his tie with the elephant. He said "Who are you?"

Sherlock answered for the businessman "Craig Ronald Osborne, C.E.O. of Titanic Skies INC. A recent airport and management firm. I deduce he was vacationing after scoring a merger with several other companies and marrying someone called [Rhea.]" He looked to his tie and gave his phone back. He then looked to the woman in the dress and said "What's your side?"

She said "Well I saw the body, went with the others to report the death and saw some some sirens."

"Sirens?" River Song said. everyone else was baffled by the woman's response.

John Watson deadpanned "Yes, more believable than giant slugs."

The Doctor and Sherlock noticed something in the woman's tone of voice as she continued. She said "Well as soon as we came back the sirens were still there. The police had outlined the body and then the sirens started singing."

"Singing?" said Rory "At midnight?"

"Yes." The woman said "The sound seemed loud enough to wake the dead. They instead took the dead away. I'm sorry but I couldn't remember anything after that."

"I didn't see any sirens." The elderly woman said "They were slugs."

Amy and Rory were perplexed by these conflicting stories. Lestrade said "I must point out that there was no evidence of slime at the scene of the murder and my colleagues have reported no sounds. You must had been imagining things."

"I know what I saw!" The woman said.

"So did I!" The older woman said.

"Something's up." The Doctor said.

"Agreed." River said. They decided to take a break before getting Craig's side of the story.

TARDIS ??:00

Twilight Sparkle was finished reading the Sherlock Holmes books. Wondering if the man she saw in his was the real deal. Rainbow Dash walked in and said "What are you doing?" The rainbow maned pegasus then took another Daring Do book off the shelf.

Twilight said "Still wondering about whether this Sherlock is actually Sherlock Holmes."

The pegasus laughed. When she stopped she said "You have got to stop taking these books seriously Twilight. We're inside a time machine piloted by a self-declared madman. And you think this is problem? He even said something about time being in flux. and for all we know about history on this planet, Sherlock may very well be in this time." Rainbow Dash went back to reading her book. The purple unicorn left the library.

Twilight saw Toola Roola with her paints. She said "Do you think it's weird to have a guy like Sherlock in this time period?"

The multicolored-maned unicorn shook her head. Toola Roola said "Not as weird as any thing else that happened lately."

"By the way," Twilight said "About those paintings earlier--"

The pink unicorn said "Paintings," She started to sweat. "What paintings? I have no idea what you're talking about. Well I gotta go." Toola Roola left the room passing Fluttershy on the way.

The yellow pegasus was surprised by the pink unicorn's sudden galloping. She asked Twilight what's wrong. The purple unicorn said "Nothing" and left.

London 11:30 PM

The Doctor was getting a drink during the recess. Sherlock noticed the madman and went up to him. He said "So how long have you met them?"

The Doctor was surprised. He said "Who are you talking about?"

"Amy and Rory of course." said Sherlock.

The Doctor was a little stunned. He didn't tell the detective their names. Of course he remembered who he was talking to and said "2 maybe 3 years, why?"

"Why do you have so many people around you Doctor? Surely you must know that one day you will have to let them go."

"Well I just thought I would give some people a chance to explore the stars, get a little history and whatnot."

"That doesn't explain this." Sherlock took out his phone the message on it read 'B4d W01f' The Doctor was shocked.. Sherlock said "I deduce that you left somebody behind in a faraway place. Perhaps fooling those that didn't know what happened to you think that she died in the process."

"How did you get that message."

"I asked for Craig's phone because I wanted to find out more about him. This and similar messages had flooded my mail box the moment you and River left. I deduced that you know what the message means by your reaction to the phrase. I've seen these word on occasion but this one came to me. Without context I deduce that someone's trying to message you in an indirect manor." Sherlock looked to Amy and Rory and said to the Doctor "Then there's these two. One of them had waited several years for you and the other waited several millennium to save her."

"How would you know that?" Now the Doctor was convinced someone's pulling strings behind the scenes.

"You think a conspiracy is going about?" Sherlock said "I got that information from some of the messages. Others told of a woman that walked the earth for a whole year to help you, only for her family to traumatized for god know how long. Others told of another woman, Ginger, strong, but doomed to amnesia of certain events lest the flow of reclaimed information will overload her brain and kill her."

The detective pointed to River and said "Then there's her. While she may be alive to you and her parents, as far as you're concerned she is a ghost who hasn't died yet. The rest involved a message about the fate of a world so close to ours and yet so far away. The remnants of its population wandering space and time. Tell me Doctor why would you ahve so many friends."

"Because friends protect people." The Doctor said.

"John Watson said that exact same phrase to me at one. But here in this context I still think that alone would better protect people."

"From what?"

"From you." Sherlock said "The survivor of a war between two races that all things considered shouldn't had existed without benefiting other species. The last email before the message I showed you included 2 prophecies: The first said something about the fields of Trenzalore, The falling of silence, and the very first question. The second appeared to be a counter to that. Stating an apocalypse and rapture will bring forth several heroes to save the universe. All of these messages besides the one I showed you came from one place but in several timelines. I know you harbor ill feelings at my existence in this time period. But ask yourself this Doctor: If our continued existences are a threat to all creation, then why do we continue to exist?"

The Doctor was confused by the detective's lecture. Lestrade went in and said that the recess is over. Sherlock said "Well then if I were you I'd avoid Trenzalore until at least the conspiracy is dealt with." They went back to get Craig's story.

London 12:00 NOON

The Doctor and Sherlock went back to Craig Ronald Osborn's side of the story Lestrade said "OK try to make this as plausible as possible."

Craig said "Well I saw the body on the street like the other stories. But the monsters were different. My memory was a little fuzzy but they were there. My memory was a little fuzzy but I hid behind a street corner. I saw the police outline the body, and then I saw the body stand up and it moved into the museum. He placed a lifelike dummy on the the outline in the exact same pose. Then entered the museum again. I think he took something from it and left the museum from the back door."

"What were you doing here in the museum in the first place?" said Sherlock.

"And what is with that tie?" said the Doctor.

"Tie, what tie?" said Craig.

"The one with the elephant. The--"

The Doctor was interrupted by Sherlock saying "Elephant in the living room."

Lestrade's phone rang again. The inspector said "What is it Sally?"

The voice on the phone answered "The museum called, The Nemean skin's missing."

Everyone but The Doctor and his companions went to the museum.

Coxa ♌ Long Live the King

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor, Amy, Rory, and River entered the blue box. They saw Pinkie Pie searching around the control room. Oddly enough she was wearing a bowler's hat. The Doctor didn't notice this as he went to pilot the TARDIS elsewhere in London. Twilight Sparkle was unimpressed. She was wearing a deerstalker hat.

The Doctor then noticed the odd hats and said "What are you doing?"

Twilight said "Pinkie Pie thought she could try to practice begin a detective."

Pinkie Pie bounced around the place and said "Nope, no clues here."

River then looked at her husband and said "I'm not taking you hat shopping after this."

The Doctor then went to work piloting the time machine. The blue box disappeared.

Museum of London 12:17 PM 7/21/2011

Sherlock, Lestrade, John, and the suspects went to the museum. There they saw the Nemean skin vanish. On the floor Sherlock noticed another Nemean skin. He examined it and said "Leather duplicate, Obviously made in Africa from someone killing a plain old lion. The tanning of the hide had taken place a week ago, and it was spray painted gold."

Lestrade sent a team to investigate the stolen skin. He told the suspects to stay in the exhibit. The detective asked Craig to speak in private.

"What do you want?" Craig said.

"Where did you get that tie?" Sherlock said.

Craig suddenly noticed the tie with the elephant that he was wearing. He said "I don't know I can't remember."

"Because you put it on when you saw the janitor take the skin."

John Watson then appeared in front of the two. He said "Lestrade wants to speak with you Craig." The businessman took off the tie and gave it to the detective. The buisnes mans said "Keep it, You seem to remember wearing it."

The blogger said "What did you do."

"I simply asked him about that tie he wore." Suddenly a blue police box appeared in front of them. Sherlock said "Well as if the madman wasn't ridiculous enough, now he Deus ex Machinas his way into the museum."

The duo entered the box and found Pinkie Pie bouncing in front of their faces. Surprising John. The other ponies were trying to get her out of their space. Sherlock just went to the Doctor and gave him the tie. The Doctor said "So, what did you find?"

Sherlock said "Someone wanted to throw us off with the murder. I've seen many cases and I know that when you eliminated the impossible, whatever remains no matter how mad must be the truth. A truth that is being silenced. Odd word that one Silence. I deduce that word has another meaning."

Pinkie Pie had just put her hat on John when he answered his mobile. He pt it on the speaker. It was Lestrade. He said "Come in we are being attacked." Everyone after hearing that exited the TARDIS and went to see what was going on there.

Museum of London 12:34 PM

The group went to another room of the museum. They saw multiple Silents and a man wearing the real Nemean skin. Craig was being held at gunpoint by the janitor. Lestrade and the others are unconscious.

Sherlock said "So that's the reason. You faked your death to get the skin and hold the C.E.O. of Titanic Skies for a ransom?"

The janitor said "Yes you got me." He then pointed the gun at the detective. "Now that you solved the case I guess it's not your problem." He walked closer to the detective.

The Doctor said "Why did you want the Nemean skin?"

"Haven't you read the myth?" The janitor let Craig go and a Silent took him out. "Long ago Heracles was tasked to slay this lion. The lion was invincible to all but the strongest weapons."

"So you took the skin for shot at invincibility?" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

the janitor pointed his gun at the pegasus and said "Why yes. And I bet Sherlock here would had done the same had his brother left him alone. I'm gonna enjoy this. the day i silence the Reichenbach hero." He aimed at the detective until The Silents sent several million bolts of electricity at him. The janitor fell down dead. The aliens thank knocked Craig unconscious. Some of them moved closer to the Doctor and Detective.

Sherlock took out his gun and said "Go ahead, worse people than you tried." He pointed his gun at the Silents. But they picked up the skin and said "Your time will come." They then vanished.

The Doctor and everyone else were placing tally marks on each other. they had forgotten the encounter. John said "What had happened?"

They took a look at the janitor, charred carcass. He was electrocuted to death. Sherlock said "Well look at that he really was dead."

The Doctor took a look at the tally marks and said "No I think he died a few seconds ago."

Sherlock examined the marks and said "I suspect that the killers can't be directly remembered huh? Well you better go. I don't want to explain the ponies or the dead corpse of the blue box."

Craig then stood up. As sis the others. By that point Sherlock and the Doctor's group left. Lestrade then saw that Craig was wielding a gun. He saw the janitor's corpse and said "Book him."

Craig noticed the gun that killed the janitor was in his hand and was arrested by Lestrade and the others. He said "What in the hell?"

Lestrade said "Craig Ronald Osborn. You are under arrest for murder and theft."

The C.E.O. said "No, No, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" As he was hauled off to Scotland Yard.

Museum of London 12:55 PM

The Doctor's group went to the TARDIS. Everyone but the Doctor went inside the box when Sherlock said "I would keep an eye out for your friend. It appears she's closer than you think."

The Doctor took back the bowler hat from John and said "Yeah, Goodbye."

"The plot thickens Doctor. There is a conspiracy at work. One hell-bent on your death and the destruction of the universe. A Diabolus ex Vinco will arrive and make the stars scream in terror. I'm sure we'll meet again one day. But until then watch out for enemies." The Doctor then entered the TARDIS and the blue box faded out of the time period.

John saw the police hauling Craig off and went to check out the problem. Sherlock tooka look at the scene and said "Not Good?"

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor entered the dwarf star alloyed room again. He checked the Antikythera mechanism. The needle not points to the sign for Virgo (♍) River Song walked in and said "You think she's returned huh?"

The Doctor remembered the the visions he had back in the dream world and said "I know Rose had returned. We must find the rest of the chronosteel quickly."

Rainbow Dash was eavesdropping from behind the entrance. She thought 'who is this Rose?' She left the corner just as the Doctor was leaving.

Chiswick 3:00 PM 7/22/2011

Donna Noble was busy watching the telly. The announcer said "Just yesterday The C.E.O. of Titanic Skies INC. Had been arrested in The Museum of London for charges of theft and murder. Local police said that they had no memory of what happened before the arrest but saw the suspect holding a gun and and the victim: a janitor at the museum dead a day prior, in the center of the room..."

"Oi, these news stories are getting more and more ridiculous every day." Donna said. She left the living room to find her husband Shawn Temple.

The announcer continued "...The shareholders of Titanic Skies have in a press conference this morning agreed to pass control of the company to Max Zeus. The son of Craig and Rhea Zeus. Details at 3:00"

Donna Noble was suddenly imagining a giant wasp in he room. She was having a small headache. But paid it no mind and went to see Shawn.

Spica ♍ Nightmare's Loyalty

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was busy researching the Antikythera mechanism. Pinkie Pie bounced in the room. She said "Hi, Hey, Watcha doing?" while bouncing over the room as she pleased.

The Doctor said "Just studying the device. For some odd reason The coordinates aren't showing."

"Oh well, be sure to get some sleep." Pinkie bounced out of the room. The Doctor had noticed something. The gears started turning again. Though the needle stayed at Virgo, the other gears turned to give the proper coordinates.

"Weird." The Doctor said. He began studying the device.

??? ??:00

Rainbow Dash was speeding alongside some sort of asteroid belt. She was avoiding the asteroids that littered the belt. She flew as fast as possible dodging asteroids left and right. Lightning just shot past her.

"Whoa, what was that?" Rainbow Dash said. Several more lightning bolts struck the asteroids. She noticed a small sphere and went towards it.

She noticed some familiar shapes inside. But they were being obscured by some sort of orb in the center. The orb was shooting out several bolts of lightning by the minute. She looked for another window. After a few minuets she saw a doorway and flew inside the sphere.

Rainbow Dash evaded the lasers, and spikes, and asteroids that had broke through the shell. Eventually she was on the floor with the sphere that shot out lightning. She looked around until she saw something that read "108 still points." She then searched around the big room. She saw another sign that said "88 screaming stars." She then noticed herself evading the bolts from a distance.

"What the hay?" Rainbow Dash was confused. Surely she can't be in two places in once. She assumed that her doppelganger was a changeling of sorts but brushed the possibility aside. The other Dash left the room.

Rainbow followed her clone all around the place until...

"What in the--" She noticed her friends and her clone in another room, The room was under a dark and stormy sky despite being indoors. There was another sign and another orb that strikes with lightning. Thunder is heard in the distance. The sign said "Another Harmony."

Rainbow Dash's friends and her clone were wearing the Elements of Harmony. They surrounded the orb. Rainbow's clone was in front of the other Rainbow Dash. The clone wept a tear before everypony's eyes glowed. They were about to use the Elements until...

"No." Rainbow Dash said as a giant bolt of lightning struck her clone and her friends.

"NO." The ponies were being electrocuted for a long period of time. The bearers of the elements had collapsed. They then transformed into ash and their particles blew away in the wind.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Rainbow Dash was crying. She had continued to weep until she saw a lightning bolt head for her. She was too scared to move. and the bolt struck her down.

TARDIS ??:00

Rainbow Dash woke up from her nap. She jumped up into an upright position. She said "Ugh. I really need to stop having those cupcakes before bed." She looked at her guest bed and thought 'Maybe it's the bed. I haven't slept on anything other than a cloud or train bunk before." She then thought about her nightmare and decided to ask Pinkie Pie about it.

TARDIS ??:00

Toola Roola and Rarity was in the kitchen fixing up lunch for the others.

"Thanks for volunteering to help me today." Toola Roola said. She was busy putting some lettuce in a bowl.

"It was nothing darling." Rarity said. She brought in some potatoes. "But are you sure you can make a proper salad?"

"Or course." Toola Roola said "How hard can it be?" She then took a knife out of a drawer and began chopping some carrots. She was cutting them diagonally.

Rarity noticed what the pink unicorn had been doing and gasped. She then interrupted Toola Roola and said "Dear me, you're doing it wrong. You're supposed to cut the carrots straight."

"Wait what?" The multicolored-maned unicorn was baffled. "Does it even matter what angles the carrots are cut?"

"Of course dear." Rarity said "Here let me do the carrot cutting, why don't you go slice some tomatoes?"

Toola Roola just shrugged and lat Rarity cut the carrots. She went to the tomatoes to cut them into little cubes.

Meanwhile Pinkie Pie entered the kitchen and said "Ooh are you guys making food. I'm a great chef you know. I can make the best cupcakes this side of Equestria."

The other ponies were baffled. Partly considering what happened to Equestria. Pinkie Pie just took some baking supplies out of the cupboard. including some of the sugar cubes from Amy and The Doctor bought at the beginning of the trip. Toola Roola and Rarity decided to let her bake the pastries and went back to the salad.

TARDIS ??:00

Rainbow Dash was waking down the hall until she saw the Doctor walking along. He noticed the rainbow-maned pegasus and said "Care to tell me whats wrong?"

Rainbow Dash said "Nothing. Have you seen Pinkie Pie?"

"I think she was going near the kitchen." The Doctor said.

Rainbow Dash sighed and she said "How many planets have you been to? How many world did you see?"

The Doctor was a little stunned. He said "I've been to countless worlds or course."

"And how many of those did you save?"

"Well let's see, There's Earth, countless times. I've saved the Oodsphere from having its inhabitants lobotomized, I've helped stopped someone from taking over a factory under a solar storm. Why do you ask?"

"Nothing." Rainbow Dash lied. She was worried about her nightmare but was too afraid to say so. She left the hall. The Doctor went on to talk to River about something.

TARDIS ??:00

River was in the dwarf star room. She examined the device. The ceiling above her was rotating allowing for some of the constellation to shine. The Doctor entered the room. River said "You still think she's in this dimension?"

The Doctor said "Something must had happened in Pete's world River. I'm sure of it."

River said "Didn't you say that the phrase scattered through time and space Doctor?" River took out the book she picked up before the TARDIS landed at the planet of lotuses.

"Yes, but they usually don't come near me unless she's in this universe and that all reality's at stake. Granted it only happened once but--"

"You still worry for her." River said.

"Well I'm sure it's just a coincidence."

River handed him the book and said "Lightning doesn't strike twice Doctor." She handed him the book. The Doctor looked at the inside cover and noticed the phrases there.

The Doctor still remembers what had happened on that planet: The flashbacks and the cloaked woman. Something is going on. He said "I have a feeling that Equestria was the first world the Silence had stropped time in," He looked at the "Bad Wolf" phrase. "Nor will it be the last. But how why--"

They heard some party noises outside the room and left to see what was going on. The moment they left the Antykythera mechanism's gears had stopped turning at a set of coordinates.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had noticed that everyone on-board the TARDIS. There was a table to the side with some food, including a giant cake, some cupcakes and a lot of salad.

Pinkie Pie bounced in front of the Doctor and River and said "Surprise." The Time Lord saw Amy and Rory in the back. They were a little confused. The Doctor went up to his parents-in-law.

Meanwhile Rainbow Dash was busy looking for Applejack. The rainbow-maned pegasus found the orange earth pony and said "Can I talk to you?"

"Sure Rainbow," said Applejack. She took an apple and said "What's your problem?"

"I just had this awful nightmare."

"Did you talk to Pinkie?"

"I'd tried but her advice is well..." She pointed to the party pony as she and Toola Roola were serving the food. Pinkie was wearing some weird glasses and had her party cannon shoot some of the tables.

"Ah get it now." Applejack said. "What about Twilight?"

"I wanted your opinion first." She then explained her nightmare to her friend.

Twilight and Pinkie Pie walked in on the conversation. The purple unicorn said "What's going on?"

"Rainbow Dash was getting something off her chest." Applejack said

"Was it that nightmare about us dying?" Pinkie Pie said.

"Please don't say that Pinkie." Rainbow Dash said.

Fluttershy and Rarity walked in at that time. The white unicorn said "So did you like the party? Toola Roola and I made the salad and Pinkie made the cake."

"Oh yeah that cake was super-duper yummy." Pinkie said.

"Yeah listen can we talk in private?" Rainbow Dash said. Her friends and her then left the control room.

Meanwhile Cheerilee, Starsong and Toola Roola were busy chatting. Starsong said "Well it's nice that you're doing something other than painting."

"Thanks." Toola Roola said. "But Rarity's instructions were getting a little ridiculous. The whole [straight cutting makes the juices stay on the carrots] thing was a little too obsessive if you ask me."

"Well Rarity is one for the high-class life style." said Cheerilee. "She means well for her friends and always try to give though."

"I guess. well I gotta go. Later." Toola Roola took some salad and left the room.

TARDIS ??:00

Rainbow Dash and her friends went to an empty hallway. She told her friends about the nightmare she had this morning.

"That sounds horrible." Fluttershy said.

"But I don't get it," Twilight said. "What were we doing in a place like that sphere your dream said we were in?"

"Duh, isn't it obvious?" Pinkie Pie said. "We were in a dream."

"I don't think it was a dream Pinkie." Rainbow Dash said. "If it was [just] a dream, why would I go to find you and tell you about it?"

"Well," Twilight said "We'll try to look more into this in the morning. Let's enjoy the party."

"Don't have to tell me twice." Pinkie Pie said. She then bounced back to the room. Everypony followed her back.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor went back to the dwarf star alloyed room after the festivities. He checked the mechanism again. He noticed that the device had finally stopped and gave some useable coordinates. He then studied the machine.

Meanwhile Toola Roola was trying to sleep in her room. She while half-asleep went to painting on the easel. The painting now depicted 6 piles of ash. The piles had something on top of them. 5 of the piles had a necklace each, but the other had a golden tiara on it. The multicolored-maned unicorn went back to sleep, unaware of what she had painted.

Porrima ♍ The Witch's Kingdom

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had finished plugging the coordinates from the mechanism into the TARDIS. Amy and Rory walked in the room.

Amy said "So did we find some chronosteel?"

"Indeed we did Pond," said the Doctor "Although the device is give me some trouble. It hasn't behaved like this since we went to that lotus planet."

"Doctor, do you think they know about that cloaked woman?" Rory said. The Doctor was silent.

"No I don't think they know yet." He lied. The other two went to prepare for the landing.

Meanwhile Twilight Sparkle was looking at the bejeweled box her mentor gave her. She sighed not knowing exactly what happened to the princess. She put the box away after hearing a knock on the door.

It was Starsong. Twilight said "Hello."

Starsong said "Hey you're good with reading right?" the violet pegasus took a out a Daring Do book.

Twilight said "Yeah, I run my own Library and everything, Why?"

"No reason." Starsong lied. She then left the room. Twilight was confused. The TARDIS was about to land.

Aeaea 8:00 AM 9/25/4891

The TARDIS has landed on an orange city on the planet of Aeaea. The Doctor's group had exited the blue box. They saw an orange and blue streets under a sky trapped in perpetual twilight.

Everyone saw a lot of rabbits among the populace. The Doctor said "Well, there are more rabbits than people here. Nothing wrong in the slightest." The Doctor was a little suspicious.

Fluttershy on the other hand went to a group of rabbits and petted some of them with her hooves. She said "I never thought there would be a place where rabbits live among the people here." She was amazed by the large amount of rabbits. Most of the rabbits had some sort of collar.

Rainbow Dash was a little disturbed. She said "I don't know. I'm more tortoise than hare."

Everybody went to the TARDIS to find some (preferably non-rabbit) life to ask about about the chronosteel. They entered the blue box and went to another part of the planet.

Aeaea 8:17 AM

The TARDIS appeared next to a city-skyscraper on the same planet. It was in a city marked by blue buildings. Although there were people in this place. It still seems to be equally populated by rabbits.

The Doctor said "Rabbits here? Call me Elmer Fudd but I think something's up."

Pinkie Pie noticed the overpopulation of rabbits. Even she knew here wasn't supposed to be this many rabbits in Equestria. She said "You may be right, Elmer."

Twilight was surprised by the amount of rabbits here. She said "I've read somewhere that rabbits are supposed to give birth to a lot of babies. But I don't think it would be this much."

"Do you think that the chronosteel might have something to do with this?" River Song said.

The Doctor said "I'm positive. We will need to cover more ground though."

Everybody decided to split up and ask around. The Doctor, River Song, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Applejack went to ask the people to the east if any peculiar meteors fell here lately. This group had passed a school that looked like it hadn't been used for decades.

Meanwhile, Rory, Amy, Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo went the other way to ask the same question. This group passed a playground in the process. The playground looked empty and run down.

Aeaea 8:43 AM

The Doctor's group had asked around asking for the meteor. But every time they asked the people tried to hush them. One member of the populace said "Quiet, Queen Circe'll hear you." Another said "Please don't talk about that meteor. It brings back horrid memories." Eventually they went back near the TARDIS.

"Should had brought Sherlock with us." River said "I bet he could find that meteor."

"And get us arrested for harassment." The Doctor said.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were behind them. The cream-colored pony was playing with the white rabbit nearby. The rainbow-maned pegasus however was a little disgusted by the cute display.

Rainbow looked at the moon. She noticed a rabbit shaped sea and said "We've been here for 3 hours and I see those rabbits so many times I even see them on the moon."

Twilight noticed the moon and said "A rabbit on the moon?" She looked at the moon above their heads and said "Wow there really is a rabbit there."

River noticed the shape and said "First there's the Silence interferring with the moon landing, then there's this [mare in the moon,] now a hare in the moon. What's next a hospital?"

"I haven't told you about that?" The Doctor said. "Anyway all these people we've asked and there aren't any children nearby. Just those bunnies, now why is that?"

River said "I don't know but one things for sure: We can't get any information on where the chronosteel is here."

The Doctor's group then noticed a man in the distance. He whispered "The meteor you seek crashed here 108 years ago. Come to the corner of Iliad and Odyssey tonight if you want the truth." and then went up the street.

Everyone was a little stunned. The Doctor's group then went back to the TARDIS.

Aeaea 8:50 AM

Amy's group wasn't fairing any better. Some of the townspeople wept at the sight of the 3 fillies with them. Others plain stated that they "wouldn't want to upset the queen." And others simply asked in anyone even cares before saying that god does not exist. Eventually they went back to the TARDIS.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were talking a few feet away from the rest of the group. Scootaloo said "Well that was a bust."

Apple Bloom said "It wasn't that bad."

"We asked about a stupid rock that hit the planet and the most likely response was tears, emo comments, or everyone running for their lives. on second thought that wasn't a bust, that was a failure."

Sweetie Belle looked at the rabbits and said "May we can get our cutie marks on this planet?"

"How?" Apple Bloom said.

"We could try taking care of the bunnies around us." Sweetie Belle said.

Meanwhile Rory and Amy were talking. Rory said "Have you notice there are no children nearby?"

Amy looked around. Other than her husband she saw the fillies, Cherrilee talking with Toola Roola, Starsong joining in their conversation and several different species around the group, mostly human or alien adults, but no children. She did see a lot of rabbits. She said "You're right Rory. But I can't help but feel that something's off about this place." She noticed a man in front of her group and said "And it isn't just the children's absence."

Everyone started to look at the mysterious man. He said "Come with the Doctor to the corner of Iliad and Odyssey if you want to find what you're looking for." He then vanished.

Everyone was a little befuddled. Cheerilee said "Who was that?"

"I don't know." Amy said. They went back to the TARDIS to find out what was going on in this place. They passed a sign saying:

Welcome to Aeaea. We hadn't had a kid in 108 years.

Heze ♍ Sonata for Lost Souls

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor and Amy's groups had entered the TARDIS. The Doctor said "So any luck?"

"No-one could answer." said Amy.

"Any children nearby?" River Song said.

They nodded their heads. Rory said "There is one guy. He told us to come to the corner of Iliad and Odyssey tonight. What does this mean?"

"I don't know," The Doctor said "but keep your eyes peeled. I think we're being watched."

Meanwhile Toola Roola had just returned to her room. The multicolored-maned unicorn was about to paint when Pinkie Pie came in. She said "Hiya, are you painting something new, can I watch? Can I? Can I? Can I?"

The pink unicorn was a little scared. She can't let Pinkie see those paintings. She tried to get the hyperactive pony out of her room. She said "I'm sorry, but I can't let you see my paintings." She led the pink earth pony out of her room and went to take a break thinking that maybe hanging out with Pinkie will help her relax.

Later Twilight was busy reading her book. She saw Rainbow Dash walk in on her. The rainbow-maned pegasus said "What are you doing?"

Twilight said "Well I'm looking for a book on visions to research with."

Rainbow Dash remembered her dream from the other day. She was still a little scared of the nightmare. She said "I'll help you look, later." She then left.

Twilight thought that Rainbow Dash was acting a little strange today. After a little while she stopped looking for the book. By this point everybody decided to got o the street corner together and find some answers.

Aeaea 5:00 PM 9/25/4891

The Doctor and his companions had found the street corner of Iliad and Odyssey. The mysterious man had appeared. He said "You wish to find the metal in the meteor?"

At this point the Doctor was not surprised to see anyone know of the chronosteel. He said "Yes."

The man said "Come with me. We can't discuss it here, they're watching us." He left the streets.

Twilight was a little confused by this. She said "Do you think we can trust him?"

"I'm not sure," The Doctor said. "He seems to know where the chronosteel is." They decided to follow the man.

Hidden cameras on the walls were secretly recording the meeting. From another building a pig-man said to someone on a throne. "Should we follow them milady?"

The woman on the throne said "Go ahead. Bring the Doctor and his group to me." Several pig-men then left the building to stalk the Doctor.

Aeaea 5:32 PM

The Doctor's group followed the man across several twists and turns. Eventually entering an underground cave. They saw several people activating some perception filters. And even more are working on some transmitter.

The man said "I am known as Anthony. I can tell you about the meteor."

"Ok." Said Rainbow Dash. She was a little skeptical.

Applejack tried to hush her rainbow maned friend. The Doctor said "Alright, what happened here?"

Anthony said "Long ago. There was a woman name Circe. She was a researcher for immortality and the queen of this planet. Over the years she had found the secret to immortality inside a meteor that crashed here 108 years ago. She studied the ultrasounds that came out of it and made a signal that made others immortal. Another party, with connections to some company had came and warned her that they wanted to use the invention for use on their warriors. Circe refused. They took her discovery and tampered with it in response."

"So what happened next?" Twilight said. Fluttershy was admiring the nearby bunnies in the meantime.

Anthony looked at the white rabbits and said "The businessmen then used the discovery on the population of the planet. Everyone on this planet had been immortalized." He sighed and then lamented "But at a terrible price."

"Let me guess." said River Song "You can't have kids?"

Anthony said "Correct. They added another signal so that any child under 18 immediately transforms into a rabbit."

Fluttershy heard that part and then looked at the bunnies eyes. She was feeling conflicted now. The Doctor noticed this and said "Is there any way to fix this?"

Anthony said "They said that the transformed victims will change back when they changed 18."

"I see." The Doctor said. "What about Circe?"

"The Witch-Queen as they called her was furious. The businessmen then had the gall to strike a deal with her. The ultimatum is that is she works with their R&D division to engineer a cure. It was an offer she couldn't refuse. She agreed to the deal, wanting a world where children can play freely. but after a few years she finally broke. She hid the cure in the staff of Helios. And then cut off ties to the corporation. They then made her their puppet. A side effect being that this was done entirely in secret to the rest of the universe. During the occupation the corporation had blocked trade and communication to the outside worlds." Anthony then looked at the transmitter.

"So you need help." The Doctor said. River, Any, Rory, and the ponies then noticed the large antenna.

Anthony said "We can have sex, we can reproduce, but out children are turned into kits after childbirth and live out their lives as rabbits while we have to outlast them. No parent should have to outlive their children Doctor." He cried.

The Doctor was stunned. He never told him who he was. Anthony offered them a place to rest for the night.

Aeaea 8:00 AM 9/26/4891

The Doctor had just woken up. River Song was already awake. He said "Where's Anthony?"

"He went to wake up the others." Said River. "I did some digging and found that the chronosteel is in the staff of Helios."

"Great, when the others are awake tell them to head to the TARDIS." The Doctor then left.

Meanwhile Anthony was busy waking up the rest of the group. He saw Pinkie Pie was already up. She was wearing a giant drum and was playing it so loudly that everyone was just waking up.

Anthony thought 'of all the 88 screaming stars...' He decided that his wake-up calls are redundant this morning and let the pink pony wake them up instead.

Later when everyone was awake (and annoyed at Pinkie's drum) The Doctor and group were preparing to go to the TARDIS. Anthony had caught up to the Doctor and said "I forgot to tell you something about Circe."

"Well what is it?" The Doctor said.

"Right after Circe denied the company's first deal. She claimed to heard a prophecy that says that a group of children will end their hold on the planet. That is the reason they transformed the children into rabbits. To protect themselves. Doctor please be careful. She'd snapped a long time ago and is now conspiring with the coperation."

The Time Lord was a little uneasy after hearing the man say "Doctor." The Doctor was sure that Anthony was hiding something. He assured that they are going to be alright and left the cave and led his companions back to the blue box.

Aeaea 9:00 AM

Several pig-men were outside the cave. They were speaking on the communicators to Circe. They said "The Doctor and his assistants are out of the cave, shall we burn down the base?"

Another pig-man smacked the first on in the face and said "You dolt, they're [companions.]"

"Look like assistants to me."

"They're companions!"

"Assistants!"

"Companions!"

"Quiet!" Circe said over the device. "I'll handle the Doctor. Now get the rebels or else I'll make you into bacon and force-feed you to the rabbits!"

"Rodger Rodger." deadpanned the first pig-man. Meanwhile Anthony noticed the "authorities" moving around. he told the others that they're coming and went deeper into the cave. They readied their weapons.

The pig-men then charged into the the cave with an army of 67. The small army started shooting the rebels and the rebels started fighting back. Eventually after a long battle the pig-men had almost killed off most the warriors. Anthony left with the transmitter and several other people. The pig-men had searched the place.

Their first leader said "Rebel base secure. but we can't find their leader or their weapon."

Circe said in a calm voice "This is why I shouldn't make pig-men the leaders." She then sarcastically said "I am really impressed with your job."

The first pig-man said "Really?"

She said "Or course not! I am FURIOUS! OUTRAGED! SICK WITH ANGER! Now Get back to to your job!"

"Oh." the first pig-man said. They then went to find Anthony and the transmitter, unaware that they have escaped.

Aeaea 10:00 AM

The Doctor and his group was nearby where the TARDIS was. Only to find it isn't there. Everyone was stunned. There was a note on the ground. It said:

Dr. John Smith and his entourage are asked to meet the queen of Aeaea: Circe. We had towed your spaceship to the castle because the queen would like to speak with you.

"Well this is just bloody great." The Doctor said. He let everyone see the note and noticed a map on the back.

River went up to the Doctor and said "How in the world would they be able to tow the TARDIS?"

"I don't know." said the Time Lord.

"Maybe the queen just wants to keep the TARDIS safe from the rain?" Pinkie said.

"Pinkie, what rain?" Rainbow Dash said.

"This one silly." Pinkie then pointed toward the outskirts of town. There are storm clouds over there raining down on the city outskirts. Everyone there was sighing at the rain and were in a state of apathy. The rabbits however were trying to run away from the rainfall. Starsong however was intrigued.

The Doctor and his group decided to head to the castle to talk to Circe and fix the sad state of the planet.

Zaniah ♍ Children in Need

Aeaea 12:00 NOON 9/26/4891

The Doctor and his companions entered a large castle. The place was adorned with decoration involving gold and falcons.

The Doctor had noticed how big this place is. He saw a pig-man. The pig-man said "Are you the Doctor?"

The Time Lord responded "Yes."

"The queen wants to speak with you. She also requests an audience with you, you, you, you, you, and you." The pig-man said as he pointed to Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Futtershy and Rainbow Dash. The pig-man then said "And no one else."

The Doctor said "Well alright." He then went up to River and whispered in her ear "Take the others and find the TARDIS." The pig-man escorted him and the representations of the Elements of Harmony then went to the throne room. While River, Amy, Rory, Cheerilee, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Toola Roola, and Starsong went to find the blue box in the castle. By this point the storm had made it to the castle and rain and lighting can been seen from the windows.

Aeaea 12:08 PM

River's group was searching for the TARDIS. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were bouncing instead of trotting. The storm was getting worse outside. Rabbits were being eaten by falcons in a room across from the halls.

Toola Roola however was felling uneasy. She went to Cheerilee and said "I think we should search somewhere else, don't you?" She looked at the falcon statues around the hall and gulped.

Cheerilee noticed her multicolored maned friend's expression and said "Alright then." The plum earth pony went to Amy and said "can we check somewhere else? I don't think we'll find anything else here."

Amy then checked to see that they had stopped at a dead end. There were no doors save the one leading back to the main hall. Everyone decided to check some other part of the castle and left the corridor.

When they exited someone entered the castle through a hidden passage outside. It was Anthony. He said "Alright [Your highness] let's see you try and rule us with an iron fist after this." His comrades had entered through the passage and started setting up the transmitter.

Aeaea 12:09 PM

The pig-man had led the Doctor's group to Circe's throne room. Circe had stood up and said "So you're here for the chronosteel huh?"

"Yes." he said "But that's not the only reason. I want you to change the children of this planet back."

The queen sighed and said "Don't we all? I suppose someone told you about what happened 108 years ago?"

"Listen," said Rainbow Dash "we don't want to hear all that [you did what you have to do] nonsense."

"Rainbow!" said Twilight. The blue pegasus was about to charge Circe until Applejack held her back by the tail.

"Too bad," The queen said. "You had been deceived Doctor. While it was true that I found the secret of immortality and that a business made the children into rabbits. They did it for different reasons."

"What reasons?" The Doctor said.

"The chronosteel is in my staff of Helios, I studied the sound-waves emitting from it and use it as a fountain of youth of sorts. However these sound-waves are also the same reason the for the rabbit baby boom Doctor."

"Explain." Rainbow Dash said after calming down. Fluttershy was trying to comfort some rabbits that hopped in.

Circe took the staff and opened a hidden compartment at the top. She took out some spheres. One of them had the constellation and sign for Virgo (♍) and was glowing a bright yellow. The other spheres had one of the constellations of Corvus, Crater, Sculptor, Carina, Circinus and Crux each.

She gave the spheres to the Doctor and said "The children will return back to normal as soon as the chronosteel leaves the planet Doctor. I'm prepared to rule a planet where all is free to live and die as they wish."

The Doctor looked at Circe's eyes and knew she spoke the truth. A fact Applejack was also aware of. The Doctor took the spheres form the queen's hands.

Pinkie Pie let out an outburst and said "You know? You may be the nice queen we've ever met. And I know cause the only other queen I've met was nasty, she was a changeling and tried to overthrow the princess and--" Everyone told to to hush.

The Doctor said to Circe "Good luck."

They heard an explosion come from a distance. The Doctor's communication device rang. He answered the device. River was on the line. She said "Doctor, they're here."

The Doctor hung up the device and said "Come on." to the ponies. They then left the throne room followed by the queen.

Aeaea 12:14 PM

The Silents had emerged in the castle. River and Amy were trying to shoot the aliens while trying to get to safety. They had eventually found a safe spot in a nearby dining hall and kitchen. They were safe, for now.

The fillies had noticed some carrots on the table and began to eat the green parts. Cheerilee was a little worried. She said "Umm don't you think this is not a good time to eat?"

Sweetie Belle said "Nope." Then continued eating the food. The plum earth pony had noticed that the Crusaders had some sort of whiskers on their faces. But was distracted by more immediate matters.

Meanwhile Rory took a spear from a nearby suit of armor and began to check the area for Silents. Amy went with him.

She said "Rory, do you think we will be able to live to save the multiverse?"

The nurse was a little confused. But he said "Of course, why would you ask that?" He felt a little dumb after asking that question. Rory remember what happened to her back at Stonehenge, and what happened to him before that. He knew that there was a chance of dying. But they took that chance anyway, he thought to himself 'Why?' They saw some shadows on the other side of the hall. The Last Centurion pointed his weapon and said "Who's there?"

The Doctor and his group had emerged from the other end. He said "Ah Rory, glad we found you."

"Doctor?" Rory said. The Time Lord answered yes and Rory and Amy decided to let them in the dining hall to discuss what to do next.

Meanwhile at the other wing of the castle. Anthony took out a box of scrap metal from the cave and started tinkering with the transmitter. A group of Silents had emerged and said "We could not find the Doctor or the queen. They had escaped."

Anthony looked at the Silents. He had an eye-patch on. He said "That queen is a tricky one. [All for the children] she says. Try harder. Find the queen and take the chronosteel for our people at Olympus Limited."

The Silients had left. Anthony said "Silence will fall [your highness.]" with a tinge of sarcasm.

Sterope ♍ Eye of the Storm

Aeaea 12:20 PM 9/16/4891

Anthony had finished working on the transmitter. He proceeded to move it to the room of the tallest tower of the castle. When he got there he saw some Silents. He said "The device is now fully operational. This storm should be able to charge it up faster than you could."

The Silents had left the room to find the Doctor and the queen. Anthony soon followed.

Aeaea 12:45 PM

The Doctor and his companions had regrouped in a dining hall. He said "OK, so the Silents are in the castle looking for us huh?"

Rainbow Dash was getting riled up. She said "We should find your TARDIS and get out of this place!"

Twilight said "We don't even know where the TARDIS is."

Fluttershy then said "Umm, maybe we should ask the queen?"

"You have a point," said Pinkie Pie "She should know where it is."

"Ok then," River said "So tell me Circe, where is the TARDIS?"

"I'll be more then happy to lead you to the TARDIS." Circe said.

While this conversation was taking place. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were still munching of the carrots. They had some sort of overbite and their tails now look more like cotton balls. Applejack saw this and went to ask Cheerilee and her friends about this.

Applejack asked her what had happened to her sister. Cherrilee and the others looked to the fillies and was a little freaked out. The Crusaders now had long floppy ears.

The Doctor had noticed this and other changes. It was then that everyone decided to get out of the dining hall to the TARDIS as soon as possible. Applejack and Fluttershy picked up the half-rabbit fillies and exited the room with the others.

Aeaea 1:00 PM

The Doctor's group were running along the halls of the castle, looking for the TARDIS. the Doctor looked out the window and saw the transmitter from before. He decided to wait until he found the TARDIS to investigate.

Rainbow Dash also saw the device and the Doctor's bafflement to it's presence. She noticed that something's up. A few hours later Circe had led the group to the TARDIS. By that point The Doctor gave River the chronosteel and whispered something to her ear. While everyone else saw that the Cutie Mark Crusaders had finished the transformation into rabbits. They noticed the sense of urgency and all but the Doctor entered the TARDIS. River had said "Good luck." and was about to close the door.

Until Rainbow Dash "Wait. I'm coming with you!" shocking everyone in the process. Just as the Time Lord was about to leave though the door,

Applejack said "Wait what do you mean you coming with him?"

Circe said "He saw something that should not had been there."

The Doctor said "It's too dangerous." Everyone but The Doctor, Rainbow Dash, Circe and River was confused as they didn't see the transmitter.

"And how are you going to get up there? Can you fly Doctor?" said Rainbow Dash "Odds are that those aliens will need the weather for something. i can clear the storms in 10 seconds flat, and distract the Silents long enough for the TARDIS escape."

"That lightning is 1.21 gigawatts. To go up there would be suicide!" The Doctor said.

"And you're going because?" Rainbow Dash said. The Doctor could tell her about regeneration but he knows that the Silents are coming here right now to stop them from escaping. He responded "Anyone else?" while she walked out of the TARDIS. In response Twilight, Pinkie, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, Amy, and Rory exited Leaving the bunnies back in the TARDIS. The Doctor said "OK then River, keep the TARDIS out of sync and place the chronosteel where it belongs, that should stop the signal. I'll let you know when the crisis is over."

River nodded and closed the TARDIS door. The box then disappeared. Leaving the Doctor's group and Circe to investigate the antenna that now crowns the castle.

TARDIS ??:00

River Song ran as fast as she could to the dwarf star alloyed room and dropped the chronosteel. The sphere then moved toward their respective places int he sky. Virgo's sign (♍) and the constellations depicted here glowed. The sign was glowing a pure bright yellow. She left the room to make sure the TARDIS is protected while out of sync with the Doctor. When she left the Antykythera mechanism gears started to turn and the needle now pointed to the sign for Libra (♎).

Meanwhile The 3 rabbits had begun to transform back to the fillies they once were. Scootaloo said "Ugh what happened?" when she finished her transformation. She and her friends saw themselves back in the TARDIS.

Cheerilee said "You don't remember becoming rabbits?"

"We became rabbits?" said Sweetie Belle.

"That's strange," Apple Bloom said "Last thing Ah remember was eating carrots."

Cheerilee, Toola Roola, and Starsong were surprised by their amnesia to the whole thing. They decided to pass the time by having another class.

Aeaea 3:00 PM

The Doctor's group fought their way to the tallest tower of the castle. Rainbow Dash had flew upwards into the stratosphere. Trying to end the storm that looms over the castle. Lightning had struck the transmitter several times, producing the sounds of a bell ringing with each strike. The Cyan pegasus had began to clear the clouds.

Meanwhile on the ground. Everyone else was fighting through the Silents that stood between the Doctor and what's on top of the tower. Amy, Rory, and Pinkie were keeping the aliens at bay with several crossbows and the latter's cannon. Twilight had put a force-field up to protect the group. Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity also set up some obstacles and traps whenever the group had gained some distance between them and their enemies. And the Doctor and Circe were leading the group to the top of the tower.

The group had made it to a spiral staircase and started going up. Their chasers seemed to have vanished from sight. So they started to mark themselves as they go higher up the stairs. When they got to the top they saw the transmitter. Rainbow Dash had most of the storm clouds gone by this point and landed near the group.

The Doctor examined the antennae. He went to Circe and said "This frequency, do you you recognize it?"

Queen Circe checked the screwdriver and said "This is the signal that--"

Circe was interrupted by Anthony who pointed a gun at her and said "Turned us immortal and our kids into rabbits. You should had stayed here in your throne Circe."

The Doctor had noticed the eye-drive Anthony was wearing. He faced the rebel and said "How long were you with them?"

"Oh Doctor." Anthony said with a sneer. "I was with the Silence for the last 108 years. They told me I can bring back the children AND keep our immortality."

Rainbow Dash said "And this doohickey is here because?"

Anthony faced the rainbow-maned pegasus and said "It's a Damocles transmitter, capable of broadcasting the signal across the planet for centuries," He pointed his gun to the pegasus and said "Provided the lightning strikes it enough times. But oh well it can still keep the status quo unfazed here within a 110-mile radius."

The Doctor looked at the device and said "That model is dangerously unstable. If this was fully charged the weight would be enough to destroy the castle and kill everyone inside."

Circe said "I knew someone was responsible for this. The man who made backhand deals with Olympus Limited after the catastrophe of 108 years past. I ran my forces to the ground looking for you."

"Guilty as charged I'm afraid," Anthony then pointed his gun back at her "I was the one who who struck a deal with Olympus when their plan to drive the masses off the planet failed. Most were depressed to the point of wasting their endless lives and other still cared for their children knowing full well that they would not live to return to their true form. If you ask me the kids would be less of a waste as rabbits."

That last sentence was more than enough to get Fluttershy angry. She calmly waked forward and stared at the monster of a man. She said "You think this is okay? That it somehow right for you to go around and ruin people's lives?" Her eyes were staring deeply into Anthony. He was slowly getting scared as the storm clouds were returning to the castle. She moved forward and said "How in the universe do you live with yourself?" Anthony dropped his gun out of fear and ran.

The storm clouds had finally returned to the castle. Ready to activate the antenna. Everyone began to dismantle the transmitter while Rainbow Dash flew off to stop the storm from activating it.

The rainbow-maned pegasus had been kicking away the clouds while the device below was slowing being broken down into parts. The lightning was trying to strike her down but Rainbow Dash was too fast for it to hit. The eye of the storm now looms over the castle now and and appears to be ready to strike the tower.

Rainbow dash remembered her dream and thinks 'I can't let that happen.' She flew toward the eye of the storm and and through it unleashing a sonic rainboom in the process and clearing all the clouds in the process.

By that point The device was dismantled. But Rainbow Dash was hit by lightning as soon as she broke the light barrier. She was almost knocked unconscious by being shocked. She flew down from the stratosphere rather unusually and crashed in the nearby gardens.

The rest of the group had saw her fall and went to help. They were surprised to see her survive the fall. The Doctor also went to help but was stopped by Circe. She said "Why do you risk your live to help others and yet inspire them to risk their lives for you?"

The Doctor said "Because friends help each other?"

Circe said "You're like the Pied Piper you know, charismatic and capable of leading others to their doom. I'd be careful you know?"

"And what about you, Your miracle day has ended and you're sure to see the rabbit population go down."

"Maybe, But not by much." she lamented. "While the people wouldn't let what befalls their children deter them from their wishes. The rabbits have a similar mindset, and it's hard to change something back into something else if they were never the something else to begin with right?"

The Doctor went to see if the pegasus is alright. After confirming that she's was safe and well he went back to Circe.

She said "We here at Aeaea have much reconstruction to do. But you have your own journey Doctor." It was there that several children were popping up where some rabbits have been The people have taken notice and realized that their curse had ended. And a miracle had been born. The Doctor and his group had said their goodbyes. he snapped his fingers and they entered the TARDIS.

TARDIS ??:00

Toole Roola had went to her room to rest after helping Cheerilee with her class and seeing everyone return. She started to paint again. The easel had depicted a strange box. The box was black and had a strange circle on it. The circle it self appeared to be glowing while several cats surround the box trying to get it open. By the time she was finished. She was surprised because this is the first time she didn't paint something scary. The multicolored-maned unicorn had went to bed to rest.

Meanwhile The Doctor went to the Anthkythera mechanism to check if anything's changed. the needle was now on Libra and the gars were in different places. He looked at the device and said "Why did this even happen?" Remembering Circe's warning. He tried to determine the next set of coordinates from the device.

Aeaea 8:00 PM

Anthony had been running ever since he ran from Fluttershy's stare. It was then that stopped to catch some breath. He noticed that there are children now. A cloaked man had appeared in front of him. It was Hermes. He took the wings off his shoes and made a screen.

Anthony was scared. He said "Ares?"

The man on the screen turned his chair. He twirled his blonde mustache and said "I've hoped you would had scared the people off this rock. Now it appears that we've got to do this the hard way. You failed me Anthony, and as much as it fills me with glee to say this: You're fired. Enjoy your new immortality." He then smirked.

Hermes Put his wings back on his shoes and left. Anthony said "Immortality but the chronosteel's gone and the antenna's must had been made inoperable. How--"

A pig-man said "Halt, you're under arrest for the act of treason." Several pig-men had surrounded Anthony. He soon realized that he was in deep trouble. he try to escape but the officers had captured him and sentenced him to prison.

A few hours later. Silence had emerged at the top of the tower. Bringing with them an unconscious Trixie. She was still strapped to the machine and seemed to have been wearing a breathing mask. One silent had activated the machine she was strapped to. The blue unicorn screamed again as she was force to use that spell. The Silents had disappeared before she cast the spell. Soon after time on Aeaea was stopped. The Silents then reappeared and began to pick up the unicorn who was knocked unconscious. A screen appeared in front of one Silent. The woman on the screen said "How's she doing?"

The Silent said "She has been rather cooperative after we brainwashed her."

"Good." she said. The screen vanished and the Silence and Trixie followed.

Zubenelgenubi ♎ You Can (Not) Leave

Stormcage-666 ??:00 10/17/5666

The TARDIS manifested inside The Stormcage-666. The interior of the ship was red with blood and rust. The Doctor, Rory, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Cheerilee, and Toola Roola exited the box.

The Doctor said "Well, this appears to be too easy." The Doctor was cautious.

Just then a voice was heard over the intercom. It said "Welcome to the Olympus Limited's Athena division's Stormcage-666 jail and graveyard. An inescapable jail guarded over by me: Schrodinger and surrounded by strategically placed black hole generators. If you managed to escape this prison, cake and ice cream will await you when you return home." The last sentence was said sarcastically.

"Really?" said Pinkie Pie. "I just love cake, ice cream's great too..." She continued to ramble on about the sweets until Rarity told her to hush.

Schrodinger was unamused. It said "Identify yourself at once!"

The Doctor said "Well does the Doctor ring any bells?"

Schrodinger stated to scan for the word Doctor. When it's done it said "Well I'll be damned, according to my records, you should had died at Lake Silencio April 22 2011." The computer paused to think for a second. As the warden of the galaxy's most inescapable prison, it had little to amuse itself with. It finally said "Alright Doctor, I shall give you a sporing chance. I know the rest of your companions have been arrested here. If you can find them and free them in 3 days then I'll let you go and give you the chronosteel that's on board the ship. However..." Several robot tigers then emerged from the walls "...if you are unable to rescue your friends, then everyone will stay here forever. Good luck, you will need it." The intercom turned off and the robots tigers had scattered.

"Well this is going to be lovely." The Doctor sarcastically said. Unaware that the gem Sirius gave him was glowing.

"Yeah, lovely." Rainbow Dash said. The group went to find their friends and a way to free them. From a distance Sirius was watching the whole thing from above. She went into another room.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor's group had saw several cells, lined up in rows and columns and slanted on the walls. The prisoners appeared to had been restrained. There was a sign that said "Circle 1: For Humanoid Prisoners."

The Doctor noticed something familiar about the the cells. They looked like translucent capsules with restraints on the legs, arms and neck of the prisoners in side. The prisoner themselves looked like they were trapped in stasis, and there was small tubes in each of the cells, each tube had a purple liquid in them and a needle in the end.

"Doctor," said Rory "is something wrong?"

The Doctor took out his sonic screwdriver and examined one of the cells. Shortly after he said "We must be careful, These cells are based on the Pandorica."

"Wait," said Rainbow Dash "what [Pandorica?]"

"Is it a door where you put your pans in?" Pinkie Pie said.

The Doctor said "The Pandorica is or rather was a one-man prison. Capable of trapping anyone in the box forever. The Pandorica was inescapable, You can't move and you can't die, The Pandoica will keep you alive if you are trapped in it."

"How do you know so much about this Pandorica?" Toola Roola said.

"I was trapped in it once, I would explain how I escaped but the circumstances were Timey-Wimey at the uh... time." The Doctor then examined another part of the cell and said 'This however seems to be modified from the Pandorica; The cells appear to have a failsafe that cuts of the life support and these tubes seem to have some sort of poison in them, they also appear to be trapped in suspended animation. On top of that, the needles are arranged so that most movements will make sure that the poison is injected. And the fail-safes are faulty, meaning that the cell will force the prisoners to barely survive the otherwise fatal poison. In essence this is Schrodinger's cat trapped inside Pandora's box. A 50% chance of escape and a 50% chance of death. We must be careful once we find our friends the smallest misstep will mean their death."

Everyone agreed on this. The group went to find their friends and some answers.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

Sirius had found Flitter in another part of the ship.The cloaked woman said "You must find and help free the Doctor's companions and your friends."

The lavender pegasus said "I still can't believe Ditzy made another building collapse on itself." She adjusted her pink hair bow and said "What are you gonna do Sirius?"

"I have to find out more about who we're dealing with. Someone's changed the timeline here and I must find out why, Good luck." The cloaked woman gave Flitter a key-card and left the hallway. Flitter went to find everyone else.

A security camera started blinking. Schrodinger though 'Well it looks like we have some cheaters here, this should make things interesting.' The several more robot tigers were scattered across the ship.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor group were busy looking for their friends. Unaware that a tiger robot was stalking them from a distance.

Rainbow Dash said "So how are we gonna open the cell and free them?"

The Doctor said "From what I could gather we're gonna need a key-card. That should be able to tilt the cell and open the door, making sure we free our friends without them getting injected in poison, as well as knocking them out of stasis in the process."

Rarity said "Can't you use that sonic screwdriver to open the doors?"

Pinkie Pie chimed "Yeah you could totally try reversing the polarity of the neutron flow or something like that!"

"Except if I try that then I risk activating the fail-safes and killing them. Plus these cells seem to have wood installed in the lock and the screwdriver can't do wood." The Doctor said.

"Great so we stuck in a prison trying to free our friends and we don't even have anything to bust them out without killing them. Lovely." deadpanned Rainbow Dash.

The robotic tiger was readying itself to pounce. Pinkie's knee started to pinch. The pink earth pony was curious about this until she saw something move behind them. She said "Look out!"

The robotic tiger the pounced on the group. Everyone manged to avoid the attack, but the beast of metal was reading itself for another attack.

The Doctor's group started to run from the beast. They ran and ran until they entered another hallway. The tiger was getting closer, it's teeth made of drills poise to attack, it's claws sharpened to the point of an atom and to pierce. The group entered a room with several shelves full of heavy machinery. The room was dark and blue and cold compared to the rest of the ship. The tiger was beginning to strike.

"Doctor what now?" Rory said. The Time Lord saw a giant shelf behind him it was unbalanced and tilted in their direction. By that point Pinkie's tail began to twitch. She looked at the ceiling but saw nothing unusual bur saw the shelf and realize that it would crush them if they stayed here.

The shelf was poised to fall and everyone else saw it. The Doctor watched the robot's movement the silver tiger prepared to maim and kill the Doctor's group. The Time Lord said "Now!" and everyone rolled out of the way. The shelf had fallen and Pinkie's tail stopped twitching for now.

The tiger was crushed by the heavy shelf and was unable to move. The Doctor noticed something familiar about the tiger's wiring. He also saw a small key-card on the machine. He picked it up while everyone else began standing up.

Rainbow Dash said "Well we can add [get mauled by a silver tiger] to the list of things that almost happened to us."

"And [get saved by poor shelf placement] to thing I though would never happen." Toola Roola said.

The Doctor looked at the pile of scrap metal that was the tiger and thought about what this could mean. After a moment they left the room to search for their friends for they knew that they have no time to waste.

??? ??:00

The Silence and the eye-patch woman had appeared in a small boardroom at the Olympus Limited headquarters. Hera approached the eye patched lady and said "Max Zeus can't make it to this meeting today, Trying to take the Madovarium is harder than he thought."

The woman with the eye patch said "That doesn't matter, what matters is that we stop the Doctor before he gets to Trenzalore."

Hera smirked "I don't understand why we have to get him away from a single planet. You guys had already made still around 41 planets by now."

"Our objective is that he must never answer the first question, and your job is to make sure that he's distracted with the chronosteel until we get 108 still points to the Medusa Cascade."

"I see. So I take it that my husband his it all planed then?" Hera deadpanned. "Just make sure that the planets and dimensions you take don't windup erasing us from existence in the process. You would be able to traverse the void between dimensions without our help."

"Don't remind me, you and you company will be compensated when we finish our grand plan." The woman with the eye-patch had left along with the Silents. Hera then went back to work forgetful about the conversation she had a few minuets earlier.

Flashback(Manehatten)

Cheerilee had just moved to Manehatten from Ponyville. 'Well this place is so large.' She said as she stepped out of the train. "Well at least I will get a chance to help other smile." She looked at a mirror and smiled, and saw her mane had been frizzled.

She walked around town for a little while then went to find her school. She stopped and saw a pink unicorn painting inside a building. She entered and said "Um hello, is this Manehatten University?"

The pink unicorn nodded and said "Yes this is Manehatten University." She passed a whiteboard and said "Are you new here?"

"Yeah I just moved here from Ponyville a few days ago. My parents are like helping me move in the dorms, and I start school here tomorrow. My name's Cheerilee what yours?"

The pink unicorn was a little flustered she said "Toola Roola. Nice to meet you."

Cheerilee looked at the painting ans saw a wonderful picture of a great sunset. She said "Did you make this?"

Toola Roola was a little scared. She said "Y-yes, I did."

Cheerilee said "Wow this is awesome. You must be the most amazing artist I've ever seen."

"Thanks but I'm sure there are other ponies that can do better then me."

"Are you kidding, like I haven't seen anypony paint that good." Cheerilee looked at the clock and saw that it was getting late. The two mares left the art room and Cheerilee said "I'm glad I met you, we should meet up again."

Toola Roola said "Agreed, see you tomorrow?"

Cheerilee smiled and said "Same time same place." The two mares then went their separate ways.

Taygeta ♎ By Any Other Name

Stormcage-666 ??:00 10/18/5666

The Doctor's group were searching for their friends. Rory was a little bit cautious. He said "Doctor, what do you think happened to this place?"

The Doctor said "From my guess, I'd say it'd been abandoned for 666 years. In that time the machines have the run of the place." The Doctor then saw an computer terminal a few yards away. He told the others to wait and then gone to the terminal and used his sonic screwdriver on it.

Meanwhile Toola Roola was a little nervous. She saw that green pony again. She waled out on the group to chase after her. Rainbow Dash noticed this and began to follow her.

The Doctor was finished examining the files on the terminal. He saw news articles about how the most notorious of this time period were sentenced to life in this prison. Some articles were praising the prison, others appeared to had most of it's contents obscured by black bars. strangely there was one article that had nothing but black bars and some Cybermen. The Doctor was shocked to find this.

The piece of jade in his pocket began to glow brightly. The Doctor noticed and began to observe the crystal. An image of a dragon could be seen in the center of the crystal. He put the gem back and thought of the woman who gave him this crystal. he returned to the group.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

Toola Roola was chasing the green pony again. She stopped in front of a pit and saw the green one vanish. The multicolored maned unicorn was a little confused by this until...

"So you really think you can hide form your past huh?" The green pony said from behind her.

Toola Roola was scared. She saw the green mare come closer. She said "W-who are you?"

"I think I already told you, I'm your shadow, the true self. I know the pain and loneliness you must feel better then you think, the pain, the uncertainty, and the fear of being abandoned again." The green pony vanished again. A metal tiger now appeared where she once stood. Toola Roola now was scared stiff. She stepped back until she saw the pit behind her. The tiger jumped. It seemed poised to strike until...

Rainbow Dash had flown in and flew the pink unicorn out of the way. The tiger leap to his doom afterwards. The two multicolored maned ponies were safe from the machine.

Rainbow Dash said "What the hay were you thinking! You could had gotten killed out there."

Toola Roola hung her head in shame and apologized. Rainbow Dash saw something in her eye that reminded her of Fluttershy. The rainbow maned pony said "Come on, we still have to find our friends." The two then went back to the Doctor's group to resume the search.

Meanwhile at the bottom of the pit. The robotic tiger was now a pile of scrap metal on top of a pile rusted Cyberman parts there as well, The machines started blinking.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

Flitter was looking through the cells. She saw a cell with a familiar shape in it. The lavender pegasus looked at the cell and took out a key-card. She put the card in a scanner next to the cell.

The cell then tilted and the prisoner fell out. It was Twilight Sparkle. The purple unicorn started to wake up and saw Flitter in a black cloak. Twilight said "What happened?" She noticed that she wasn't in the TARDIS anymore and recognized Flitter.

Twilight was surprised by this fact for she saw nopony escape Equestria other then herself and the ponies that went with the Doctor. She walked up to her and said "Fitter? what, how, wait what?" Flitter started to explain how how she and several other ponies escaped with Sirius before the TARDIS left Equestria. She also explained that her friends are in this place. Twilight offered to help her find the others. And both moved down the walkways trying to find their friends.

Meanwhile Sirius was in another room. She saw someone in one of the cells. She took a key-card from her pocket and opened the cell. River Song was inside the cell. The cloaked woman helped her out of the cell as she woke up.

River stood up and noticed the surroundings around her. She turned around and say "Well I can say that Stormcage went to hell since the last time I was here."

Sirius said "I've been watching you and The Doctor for a while."

River said "Yeah I kinda figured. Let me guess your world had been invaded by the Silents?"

"Yes, or rather, it will be..."

River interrupted "We're not in San Dimas. I just have some questions for you."

Sirius was not impressed. She said "You wish to know who I am?"

River said "Of course." The two then waited a little while.

Stromcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor's group had found Applejack and Starsong and freed them. The Doctor explained what happened to them.

Applejack said "Another prison!?" She was clearly shocked. "How? Why?"

The Doctor was a little surprised by the reaction. He said "I don't know, but someone wanted to trap us here." He took out the notice and examined it. he felt something off around them. Like this place shouldn't belong here somehow. Everyone decided to find the rest of their friends.

A hour later they saw another terminal. The computer has a file on it. Everyone went to the terminal and opened the file.

"Loading video file [Failsafe.]" the computer said. A familiar man appeared on the screen.

"Is that that Daedalus man we met on the mines?" Pinkie Pie said. Rarity them remembered what happened there.

"What is he doing here?" Rory said.

"I think he might have something to do with the prison." The Doctor said.

The video began playing. Daedalus said "Hello there. if you are watching this than it appears that I have failed to stop them from taking control. You see I was once a man working in Cretopolis who created the Pit of Daedalus and it's A.I. system Asterion."

Everyone here but the Doctor was a little surprised. The message continued with Daedalus saying "The pit was meant to be a way to decrease crime, but the A.I. was sabotaged by King Minos shortly after it was finished. They put me and my family into the Pit and left us there to die. This is where I make my message."

Applejack said "Ah knew That Minos guy can't be trusted."

The video continued "While I worked on the project I was visited by a woman in a cloak. She warned me that my superiors will use the prison as a means of oppression. I called her mad. I didn't listen and now I'd paid the price..." the video was cut off by that point.

"Aww, I wanted to see more." Pinkie Pie said.

The Doctor thought that the video was hidden in every computer in the prison. They saw Twilight and another pony trotting in the distance. Twilight noticed the crowd and went to them. Flitter followed.

Rainbow Dash said "Flitter!? What are you doing here?"

Fitter and Twilight explained about what happened to her.

The Doctor thought 'So she was in Equestria as well?' referring to Sirius. He remembered the Bad Wolf message that Sherlock Holmes showed him on his cell phone.

"Did anypony else came with you?" Pinkie Pie said.

"Well, yeah." Flitter said.

The Doctor thought 'The plot thickens.' He said "We will need to hurry." The group left the terminal and tried to find the others.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

Sirius and River were still in the area of the prison. The cloaked woman said "Alright, ask me anything."

River said "First off, you seem to know a lot about the Doctor, why do you know so much?"

Sirius said "I seen the Doctor a lot."

"Okay," River was skeptical. "Why do you hide behind that cloak? You don't act like a headless monk."

"I can't let him know what happened to my world." Sirius said.

"Let me guess, The Silence happened to you--" She stopped and noticed something about the woman. She remembered the message in the book. "Never mind, this is a waste of time. I already have you figured out."

A metal tiger was lurking nearby. It was several yards away from Sirius. River said "You've met the Doctor in London, you saw two parallel dimensions, and were left behind in one of them. Take off your hood. You're not the missus anymore."

Sirius was terribly surprised. The mechanical tiger was ready to strike.

River noticed something behind Sirius. She took out her blaster and said "Behind you!" The cloaked woman saw the tiger attacking and ducked. River shot the machine down after a few hits.

Sirius was stunned nobody has had the jump on her since she went to this universe. She said "Thanks."

River Song saw the signs around her changing, they all now read "Bad Wolf." Sirius noticed the changes and said "How did you know?"

River said "I've seen what happened to you," Sirius took off her hood and revealed a blond haired girl as River said "Rose Tyler."

Ankaa ♎ The Missus and the Ex

Flashback (Pete's World, London)

Rose Tyler and the metacrisis Doctor were trying to run from the Silents who have overrun the planet. They ran from them for weeks. The Doctor didn't even know what was happening for he could not recall any detail.

Eventually the duo had appeared in Darig Ulv Stranden. The metacrisis Doctor's now fully grown TARDIS was just a dozen yards away. But when they got to the Box they were ambushed. The Doctor was injured by the Silents by the time Rose entered the TARDIS. He stayed out of the TARDIS.

Rose said "Doctor, what are you doing?"

The metacrisis Doctor said "Rose, You must find the original me. Go, I'll distract them." The TARDIS doors started to close before Rose could try to exit. the duplicate TARDIS vanished into thin air.

The metacrisis Doctor, now knowing Rose is safe faced the Silents and said "Allons-y." and charged to the Silents. But they vanished. The Doctor was confused. He forgot about the monsters and just saw something in the distance. It was a machine. A blue unicorn was strapped to it and in pain.

The Doctor never remembered being in this place today. The last thing he remembered is him and Rose dating in a park. The machine in front of him triggered and silence had fallen.

Stormcage-666 ??:00 10/19/5666

Rose Tyler and River Song moved into another area to look for the Doctor and the others. River said "So, miss [Bad Wolf] how did you know about the Silents?"

Rose said "They invaded the dimension I was living in."

"Oh yeah, Pete's World he called it." River said. Rose chuckled a little. River then took out her communication device and tried to contact the Doctor. She said "Great, something's jamming the signal. We'll have to find them on foot."

Rose said "How did you met the Doctor?"

River said "Well it wouldn't be the first time nor would it be the last but The Doctor knew my parents. I was conceived in the middle of the time vortex, got kidnapped at Demon's Run, was trained to be an assassin, tried to kill him in Nazi Germany..."

Rose was a little confused, and somewhat mad. She said "Go on."

"I killed him, had a change of heart give my remaining reincarnations to him, then studied to be an archeologist." River sighed. "I would see him multiple times but my timeline is different form him. He knows me more, I know him less. And fear the day where I reach a point where he doesn't even know I exist. But enough about me. We have other things to do than talk about how I met the Doctor."

Rose agreed. They went ahead to find the Doctor.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor, Rory, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong and Flitter were still in another area. A nearby sign said "Mixed area, for for when the humanoid, and non-humanoid wings run out of room."

Toola Roola was having some doubts about this whole adventure but brushed them aside for now. Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Twilight were asking Flitter more about what happened to her.

Rainbow Dash said "So you been helping this [Sirius] woman help us find the chronosteel?"

"Well, yeah But she said that we can't get it onto her ship without it imploding or something like that."

The Doctor overheard that part of the conversation. He thinks about the void ship theory.

Twilight said "So, how did you escape?"

"We were ambushed by these aliens in the Everfree forest. Sirius told us what had happened; said something about being--"

The Doctor interrupted and said "memory-proof, you can't remember meeting them once they're gone."

"Yeah that's right." Flitter said. "There was also this machine that somepony was strapped into but I don't remember what happened to her or what she looked like."

"Okay," Rarity said "Did anypony else come with you?"

"Yeah," Flitter said.

By this point the Doctor's group had found Amy, Fluttershy, and Cloudchaser. They got to work freeing them. The there were a little dazed and confused. Everyone started explain what happened and Flitter introduced herself and her sister to everyone else. After the exposition they decided to find the others as quickly as possible and left the area.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor and his group had found another terminal. The doctor said "Let's see what we can find out from this one." and began starting up the terminal. Flitter and Cloudchaser were having a conversation with Starsong and Toola Roola. While Rory and Amy was checking everyone for poison just in case.

The machine started up and a video started playing. Flitter said "Who's that?"

"A man called [Daedalus.]" said the Doctor "From what I can gather his technology was what made the prison." The Time Lord began skipping the pert of the video he'd seen.

The video now said "...She warned me that my superiors will use the prison as a means of oppression. I called her mad. I didn't listen and now I'd paid the price. While I was in the pit I was working on both a way to escape and was bust upgrading the [Sword of Theseus] reboot program. One of the prisoners, a being that looked almost like a dragon, wanted to be my assistant and helped me upgrade the program into what was known as the [Dragon Virus.] However, the virus wasn't finished by the time we've escaped. The sentinels had appeared to to execute us. They took both my assistant and my wife."

Everyone heard some footsteps coming from the distance. Rory, Amy, Rarity and Rainbow Dash went to investigate.

The video was still playing. "The woman was right. If only she could...now. She said that she would come...give the virus to the Doctor whe...eady. If ether...was watching this. Then let...I'm sorry th...ings gone wrong... It was..fault...I shou...for Olympus Limited in the...place if I knew they...steal my techno...coming...Good..." The video was brought to an abrupt halt.

"Well, guess that answers that." The Doctor said.

"Do you think that it was the Silents Doctor?" Twilight said.

"Why not?" The Doctor said "They blew up my TARDIS once and tried to kill me. On top of everything else that happened."

Amy, Rory, Rainbow Dash and Rarity returned. Rory said "Doctor, we have a problem."

Stromcage-666 ??:00

River Song and Rose Tyler have managed to find and free Lyra, Bonbon, Minty, and Ditzy, from their cells. the 4 ponies were still a bit dazed from this experience.

"What happened?" Lyra said "Where's that building?" Ditzy acted sheepish.

"Building?" River Song said.

"Long story." said Rose. She introduced River and explained their situation.

"What!?" said Bonbon. "You mean we're in prison?"

"And not a very good one either." said Minty "So, your real name's Rose huh?"

"Funny, I remember seeing somepony named Rose once. Although she and her friends overreact a lot." Ditzy said.

Rose noticed something move in the shadows. She said "I don't think we should stay here longer." Everyone agreed and began finding the Doctor's group.

Meanwhile Schrodinger was getting furious. It said to itself "Well I sure didn't expect the cheaters or the Doctor to get this far. Guess it's time to level the playing field." Robot tigers and Cybermen then moved into the prison.

The Doctor and his group were running from the Cybermen. The humanoid machines were trying to intercept them at each turn. Eventually the group hid from the robots in a hidden room.

Rainbow Dash was rightly confused, for she had never seen those machines before, and neither did anypony else. The Doctor and his human companion on the other hand have faced the Cybermen before. The rainbow-maned pegasus said. "What the hay are these things!?"

The Doctor said "Cybermen. They are machines made by placing the minds in a hollow shell. Their goal is convert all life in the universe into Cybermen. There are many types, but almost all of them came from the planet of Mondas." The Doctor remembers another group of Cybermen in Pete's world.

The Cybermen had left, having searched the perimeter. The Doctor and other went to find the remaining prisoners.

Twilight Sparkle noticed something in a distance walkway. The Doctor had noticed that same thing too. The group went to investigate.

Storcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor's group had found River's group. They introduced the ponies they found to everyone else.

Twilight did a check. She said "let's see, Lyra, Bonbon, Ditzy,..." She couldn't find the Cutie Mark Crusaders anywhere. "Where are the fillies?"

The cells began shuffling around and around. The cells have been completely randomized. Schrodinger said over the intercom "Well I sure didn't expect to find some cheaters here, but I thought they would make things interesting not break the [game!]"

"Where's my sister?" Applejack said to the A.I.

"Rest assured that these last 3 are safe in their cells, for now." The A.I. said. The groups Key-cards changed color form a bright azure to a deep crimson. "You're gonna have to risk a 50% chance of them dying if you want to escape now, course you'll have to find them first."

"Where are that!?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Like I'll tell you." said Schrodinger. "I'll give you a clue though. They're at my control room, a place that changes position every 30 minuets and at random."

"And why would you tell us this?" The Doctor said.

"Because in case you haven't notice my [guards] have began patrolling the halls now. Really when you have the populations of entire planets imprisoned here. You just can't let even a few escape. Tick Tock goes the clock Doctor." The A.I. stopped the intercom. Everyone began searching for the control room.

Rose and The Doctor became suspicious about the A.I.'s motives. She thought 'Entire populations, but why?' They decided that the answers can be found at the control room and so tried to find it with the others.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

Everyone started looking for the control room. The cells had started shifting again.

Toola Roola went up to Rainbow Dash. the rainbow maned pegasus said "Um I just wanted to say thanks for rescuing me."

"No sweat," Rainbow Dash said.

The doctor saw a computer terminal. it was different form the others. He said "What in the..." he began to examine the terminal. From a distance several Cybermen were marching. The Doctor saw a map of the entire ship on the terminal. He saw a blinking red dot on the floor above them.

Pinkie Pie said "Whatcha doing?"

"Discovering where the control room is." The Doctor said. the blinking red dot stopped next to a stair case. The Doctor scanned the map with his screwdriver. The Cybermen had moved closer. Everyone had noticed these machines.

The Cybermen had said "You are under arrest for the crimes of attempted escape and harboring freedom, resistance is futile."

The Doctor said "Well that sounds kinda familiar." Then everyone ran away from the Cybermen. The Doctor examined his screwdriver and started looking for a staircase.

Rose noticed that the Doctor was a little distracted. She said "Doctor what are you looking for?"

The Time Lord said "The control room. I think I know where it is." There was a stair case. The Doctor said "Everyone this way." as he went up the stairs. Cybermen and robot tigers were moving from the other end of the hall blocking off the only other path. The Cybermen began firing, but Twilight used her force field spell. The group have moved up the large staircase.

Eventually they saw a door. the Doctor tried to open the door Twilight's spell was weaking. Rory and Applejack helped the Doctor try to open the door, but it wouldn't budge. Amy saw that one of the Cybermen had dropped a blue Key-card. Rose also noticed the card on the ground. Twilight's spell was broken and the machines were getting closer.

Amy and Rose then moved to get the card while River, Rainbow Dash and Rarity tried to stop the robots. every else was trying to get that door opened. Rose fired her stun gun at the Cybermen and Amy disarmed one of them. She fired the machine's gun at the other machines but the severed arm was still moving, trying to latch to Amy. She threw the arm away and grabbed the Key-card from the ground. She went back and swiped it on a nearby lock and the door opened. Everyone went inside and The Doctor closed and locked the door just before the machines were about to enter.

They saw a tiger shaped robot hanging from the ceiling. It sarcastically said "Well It appears I should have cut power to the computers. Well that happens when you run a prison ship for about 3000 years." The robot took it's head and leered at the group. For they had found and entered the control room.

Stormcage-666 ??:00

The Doctor's group was confronted by the A.I known as Schrodinger. The Doctor said "Why are there Cybermen here?"

Schrodinger said "You can be surprised what you can find orbiting the planets on patrol. There were several destroyed Cyber-Legions that died out. The Athena division just repurposed them into my own police force. I was created when One of the Olympians temporally took over another division of Olympus Limited and they gave me full jurisdiction over this sector."

Rose said "Why did you say you have entire populations in this ship?"

Schrodinger responded "Well one of the terms of my authority and my very programming itself is that I must conform to the laws of the planets under my jurisdiction. The problem was that their leaders were growing corrupt. Passing laws that made everything from listening to music, to even eating punishable by law. Therefore I much obliged and imprisoned everybody on these planets."

Everybody was getting mad at the A.I. Especially Fluttershy and The Doctor. The former of which said "Why would you do that?"

Schrodinger said "Well technically it wasn't my fault. Nor was it theirs. 1000 years ago Olympus Limited had bought every planet From Cretopolis to New New Venus. The leaders in response passed a treaty witch then criminalized everything. In a way it was sorta suicide when you think about it especially considering that the longer people stayed in the cells the less of their minds they retain. Of course over the years some cult had shown up took the empty planets. Not that I cared. Those are bound to a law that I enforce by keeping everyone in stasis."

Rory said "You can't do that, it's wrong!"

"Is it?" said Schrodinger. The metal tiger head moved closer to him and said "I merely enforce the law, and you know that say: [Justice has a price, The price is freedom.] I suppose you want to free the little tykes from their cells?" Three cells had emerged out of a turning walls. Sure enough Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were in them. Applejack and Rarity were furious.

It was then that the metal Tiger head said "Too bad!" Rose's key-card turned red and the door behind them had opened letting the machines flood in.

By then everyone split up The Doctor went to find a terminal. Twilight cast a shield over the group once more, concentrating more power this time. Cheerilee, Applejack and Rarity went to the cells trying to find a way to free the fillies. Everyone else was either hiding or trying to hold the enemies back.

The Doctor had found the terminal. The piece of jade had glowed with the Dragon Virus inside. Schrodinger said "Hahahaha! You think you can stop me me with that?"

The Doctor said "I can save the universe with a kettle and a shoe string, I used the Pandorica, that same Pandorica you based your cells on to save the universe and I created a time flow analogue out of nothing but household items. I can stop you with less if I wanted to."

Schrodinger was scared. It said "Who are you?"

"What forgot already? It's only been what, 2-3 days? I'm the Doctor, so basically..." He jammed the crystal into the terminal. A dragon appeared on a nearby screen that said "Virus detected. Now rebooting. Deleting all files and programming from 4000 A.D. onwards. Shutting off artificial intelligence."

The Doctor said "...Run!"

The corrupted A.I. screamed as the robots around him turned off and were reduced to piles of scrap. The three cells started to tip and release the fillies who were knocked unconscious. The cells were opening outside the room as well. The Doctor and his group had left for the TARDIS.

On the way, they saw someone, a blue skinned woman with orange hair. She was carrying a bog behind her. The Doctor recognized the girl and said "Ariadne?"

The alien said "Who are you? Where am I? Who am I?"

River noticed that Ariadne didn't notice anyone here. She said "Must had been the among first prisoners Doctor?"

"Doctor? Oh." Ariadne noticed the bag behind her. and said "I found this when I woke up. Is this yours? It said [For the Doctor.]" She put the bag down. The Doctor looked at the bag and saw several pieces of chronosteel. There was a greenish-yellow one with the constellation and sign for Libra (♎). the other pieces had the constellations for Hydra, Lupus, Canis Major, Puppis, Antila, and Pyxis, on it.

The Doctor realized that she must had been trying to get the chronosteel for him before she was caught, and that everyone in the cells save those that the Doctor's companions had their memory wiped. He took the bag and said "You're free now to lead your own life. You have a clean slate, a fresh start. You must now help the people rebuild their lives." and left.

Eventually they found the TARDIS among the crowd of confused people. The Doctor turned to Rose Tyler and her companions and said "You can come with us of you want." while his companions entered the blue box.

Rose said "Are you sure? I'm sure you got your hands full already--"

Lyra interrupted and said "Speaking of which do we get to see more people with hands?" with childish glee.

Bonbon said "Lyra." in shame.

Rose was thinking the decision over, she wasn't sure if her TARDIS that she gained from the metacrisis Doctor would handle a potential paradox. The Doctor noticed this and said "Don't worry, I'm sure that Handy won't mind about the TARDIS-within-a-TARDIS thing. I'll make sure that a paradox won't destroy either TARDIS.

Rose and the others were still thinking it over. After a moment she accepted and entered the Doctor's TARDIS. As a result Pinkie Pie then went to get some stuff.

River Song thought 'Well The Ex has moved back in, should be interesting.' The Doctor went to Rose's time machine and used his sonic screwdriver to activate the machine remotely and shrink it to the size of a baseball. He handed the miniature TARDIS to Rose as both entered the Doctor's own time machine.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor went back into the dwarf star alloyed room and opened the bag he got form Ariadne. The chronosteel within flew out of the bag and took their place in the starry room. Libra's sign (♎) had emerged and glowed a radiant chartreuse. The Doctor then examined the Antikythera mechanism. The gears turned again. The needle now pointed to Scorpius (♏). The Doctor decided to wait until tomorrow to get the coordinates and left the room.

Later Pinkie Pie threw a reunion party for Rose and a welcome party for Lyra and the others. The Doctor was sitting down eating cake. River came to a table and said "Hello Sweetie."

"Hello." The Doctor said.

"Been a while since you seen her huh?" River then gestured to Rose who was blindfolded and trying to hit a Dalek Pinata.

"It's not that, you know that Rose was in another dimension when I last saw her."

"I see, you're worried that the Silents got to Pete's World huh?"

"The Silents have never tried attacking other dimensions. Apart from the whole [exploding TARDIS] thing. What are they up to?"

"I'll guess we'll find out soon enough. Right now we still have to find the rest of the chronosteel."

Pinkie Pie butted in and said "No silly, right now we have to celebrate." Streamers blew out behind her. The pink pony then put a fez on the Doctor's head.

The Doctor said "Well, if you insist." He went to see if he could take a swing at the pinata. The party continued to last for several hours, unaware of what the Silence were up to...

London 12:00 9/05/2011

The Silents had appeared in an abandoned building.They brought the Discord statue along with the stolen Nemean skin and laser screwdriver.

They met with several members from the Cult of Saxon. The aliens left a note on the screwdriver and left. The cultists then prepared a ritual. There was a bright light that engulfed the entire building.

Antares ♏ A Familiar Foe

??? ??:00

The Doctor was trapped inside another white void. The sword from his earlier nightmares had appeared again, this time with two strands broken. The human avatar of the TARDIS had appeared again, but she vanished when the Doctor tried to ask her what's going on

The Doctor said "Well this is lovely." He began seeing flashbacks. Flashbacks of the Christmas of 2009. The time he was in before he'd regenerated.

My Lord Doctor...

He saw The Master right in front of the Pandorica. He had blond hair just like the last time they met.

My Lord Master...

The Doctor said "What is going on?" The Master vanished in a blinding light and The Doctor found himself in a room overlooking the stars, except more than half of them had vanished.

We are gathered...

The Doctor was teleported into another room. There he saw most his companions, dead. The Doctor was shocked. He noticed something in the center. It is, or rather was, Twilight Sparkle and her friends. Five of them were wearing golden necklaces with Twilight wearing a tiara. They were standing up, the only being alive in this wasteland other than the Doctor himself.

The 6 ponies have moved uniformly almost like they were one and the same. Their necklaces and tiara glowed with an otherworldly light. Behind them was a gate, transparent, with only the frame visible but closed. The Doctor saw something familiar through the gate, which depicted another part of space.

'It can't be' He thought. But he was more worried about the ponies then the gate.

...for the end.

The tiara and necklaces broke as their wearers started to disintegrate. Their particles moving through the gate. The gate started to open. A large cyclone began to blow everyone and everything sans Doctor into the gate, until he was the only one left standing.

There was a glorious light emerging from the open gate. the Doctor saw something in the light as it engulfed everything. He saw...

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had just woken up on the control room. He was studying the Antikythera mechanism for the coordinates of the chronosteel. The Doctor said to himself "Well Pinkie, this the the last time I'll try your cherries-in-a-chimichanga." He began to study the device.

Later, when everyone else was awake. Lyra and Bonbon were walking around the TARDIS. They were getting used to their new home. As was Flitter and Cloudchaser who was chatting with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Ditzy and Minty adjusted the fastest though and were already having fun with Pinkie Pie. Applejack and Rarity were discussing about recent events and Cheerilee and her friends were teaching the Cutie mark Crusaders another class.

Twilight went to the Doctor and said "So how close are we Doctor?"

"Well," The Doctor said. "We currently have 45 pieces of chronosteel now."

"I see. Just checking, later." the purple unicorn left.

River Song then entered the room with Rose. It sounds like they were talking about him, or rather his fez. Amy and Rory on the other hand were meeting with the Doctor.

"Doctor, have you ever heard of the [Missus and the ex?]" Rory said. He sounded a little confused by the phrase. Amy was chuckling a bit.

"Every man's worst nightmare?" The Doctor said. Rory nodded. The Doctor said "Why'd you ask?" before Rory pointed to River and Rose. The Time Lord said "Ooh that." He put on a fez and began plugging in the coordinates for the next piece of chronosteel. Afterward he left the room.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had just finished putting the mechanism back in the dwarf star alloyed room in when he heard a voice over the intercom. The voice said "Hello there everybody, come on over to the control room for a big surprise!"

The Doctor was surprised already. Someone had broken in the TARDIS. Everyone went to the control room to see what in the universe is going on.

They saw a man. He looked off yet strangely familiar. He said "Hello everybody. Most of you don't know who I'm am but I've heard that The Doctor was searching for some chronosteel right?"

The man took some spheres out of a pocket in his purple, red, and green robe. The first sphere had the sign and constellation for Scorpius (♏) and was green like the trees. The others had the constellations for Norma, Ara, Triangulum Australe, Corona Australis, and Telescopium and gave them to the Doctor, saying "Well I don't really need these spheres anyway I got all the power I'll ever need." The figure's voice started to change back and forth.

The mysterious figure then took out his paw and made the TARDIS door open. Then he made several faraway stars go supernova with a snap of his fingers. The figure closed the doors and said "See, that's only a fraction of my power."

Twilight said "Who are you?"

The figure said "I'm not telling you. Twilight Sparkle, you're the element of magic no?"

Most everyone was surprised. The purple unicorn said "How do you know? You do look kinda familiar."

The figure disappeared and reappeared next to Rainbow Dash and said "Then there's Rainbow Dash, how is your Loyalty doing these days?"

Rainbow Dash said "That's doesn't even make sense!"

The figure said "Well is there fun in making sense? I don't think." He teleported next to Pinkie Pie and said "You know you're still my favorite Pinkie Pie. The Element of Laughter." He then made a stick figure appear and dance on Twilight's head. The purple unicorn was unamused but the pink earth pony was laughing.

The mysterious madman then appeared nearby Rarity and said "Well well well, miss Rarity, as Generous as ever I presume. Yet you still have that gemstone attachment."

Rarity said "Pardon?"

The figure went to Applejack and said "Ah yes Applejack, the Element of Honesty." He looked to Fluttershy who cowered in fear of the man he moved his snake tail to the meek pegasus and said "And Fluttershy's Kindness."

Twilight said "You seem to know our strengths."

The figure took out his other arm out. The fingers on this hand were replaced with claws. He said "I know a lot of things dear." He proceeded to point at the rest of the being on the ship and said "The mailmare who broke town hall, the human obsessed madpony and her closeted friend, the flying wonder twins, the mad artist, the fallen pop star, the teacher, the blank flanks, the pony with a sock fetish, the Doctor, The Doctor's wife and assassin, the Girl who Waited, the Last Centurion, and the big Bad Wolf. Did I miss anyone?"

River Song pointed her sonic blaster at the alien and said "You have until the count of three to get off this ship."

The figure simply laughed and snapped his paw. River's blaster had became flooded with water. The figure said "Miss please, I've already been killed multiple times now. I already know what's it like to live, and die, and live, and die, and so on and so forth." He turned to the Doctor and said "We should have a date; you, me, them. How 'bout Earth, circa 2012, no that's to cliche. I'll get back to you on that, oh and I'll even bring some of your friends to join the party."

Both Twilight and The Doctor began remembering. Twilight's memories were of the second time she and her friends saved Equestria from the menace known as Discord while The Doctor remembered what happened on the Aircraft carrier Valiant. Twilight said "Why are you here?"

The Doctor said "You should be--"

The figure interrupted by saying "Dead? Petrified? Wasting away as a zombie? No thanks We had enough of those the last time they happened to us. We just wanted to than everyone for helping free me the last time." He looked to the fillies who was hiding with Fluttershy. He then said "As well as getting rid of those awful drums." as he looked to the Doctor. "This is one night out you'll never forget, it will have death, destruction and jelly babies."

By this point the figure realized he had far outlived his welcome. He said "I'll pick you up at 7:00. Or maybe just let you know when the festivities starts. Just look up [the Maestro of Discord]. Arriverderci." The figure vanished.

"What the Hay just happened?" Rainbow Dash said.

The Doctor just noticed the six pieces of chronosteel the figure left behind. He said "I'll explain later." He went back to the dwarf star alloyed room with Twilight following.

Twilight and the Doctor were inside the room The Doctor let go of the new chronosteel as the metal flew up and created the images of their respective constellations. The sign for Scorpius (♏) now appearing a bright spring green had appeared. There spherical ceiling and walls was turning.

Twilight said "How can Discord come back, this doesn't make any sense! We stopped him long ago."

"The Silents must have took the statue while were were escaping Equestria." The Doctor said. "They have freed him and brought back the Master."

"Who?" Twilight was confused. The Doctor hadn't told any of the ponies about the Master.

He noticed this and said "My archenemy so to speak. We have an on-again off-again relationship as enemies, usually turned off when he dies. They might have merged together at some point."

Twilight was still a little confused. But now she knew why Discord was here. She said "We need to stop them, Discord's bad enough as it is."

"Agreed." The Doctor said. Both of them let the room to try to explain who the Maestro of Discord is.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor asked everybody to come to a room inside the TARDIS. There The Doctor and Twilight Sparkle explained their suspicions.

Flitter said "Hold up, wasn't that Discord guy trapped in stone?" Cloudchaser was a little disappointed.

Twilight said "Yes, but the statue might had been stolen when we escaped Equestria, any other questions?"

Minty and Lyra weren't paying attention. They were putting socks and gloves on their hooves. Bonbon was watching the spectacle and was a little ashamed at this display.

The Doctor explained who the Master was and Twilight explained who Discord was.

Applejack said "So you say that both of them had somehow merged togeth--"

Pinkie said "Wait how would that even work?"

River Song said "Stranger things had happened."

Rose said "Doctor do you know where we can find hi- the-?" Rose and most everyone was getting confused by the two minds in one ordeal regarding their recent visitor.

The Doctor said "I don't know. The Maestro of Discord said Earth and set a time but Discord's chaotic influence means they they could be anywhere." The Doctor heard a phone ring somewhere.

Amy said "Do you hear that?"

The Doctor looked around for the source of the ringing. He found a small mobile phone. He said "Hello?" but the ringing was still there. He noticed another phone in his other pocket. It was the superphone Martha left him in case she needed him once more. The Doctor answered that phone and said "Hello?"

"Doctor, Something's wrong, the weather's out of cont...date's been ch...chaos every..." The transmission was cut off, something that by all means should not be possible for the modified phone. The signal was still running though. The date on it read November 6, 2102. The Doctor knew who was responsible for this. He left the room and began to follow the signal back.

Graffias ♏ Maestro of Discord

London 7:00 AM 11/6/2102

A crimson sky with pink clouds loomed over the earth as snow and hail fell from the sky. The TARDIS had landed in London in the year 2102. The Doctor felt something different in this time line.

"Brr, it's so cold." Pinkie Pie said. She and her friends had put on the Elements of Harmony for when they find the Maestro of Discord.

The Doctor had found a unread newspaper on the ground. The headline read "ANARCHY IN THE U.K." The story is about the weather problems in this time, including raining meatballs in the Atlantic and chocolate milk raining down in California. There are also stories about people catching on fire in Egypt, and Brazil being overrun by animals with long legs. The paper was nothing but news stories about the end of days.

Amy came up and said "Doctor what's going on?"

The Doctor said "Time had been rewritten Pond. And time itself had been altered." He took out Martha's phone and his sonic screwdriver and began using it on the phone.

Twilight came into the conversation. She said "How long was he here?"

The Doctor said "Let me check." He looked at the date of the newspaper. It was 10/31/2102. He said "It must had went back a couple weeks at best."

Meanwhile Starsong was looking at the cotton-candy clouds. Toola Roola went to her and said "What are you doing?" Flitter and Cloudchaser also was curious of Starsong's actions.

The violet pegasus said "Those are cumulonimbus clouds." She saw lightning strike down and the snow mixed with hail.

Flitter, Cloudchaser and Toola Roola was a little confused. Starsong said "Cumulonimbus clouds are where bad weather comes from. We will need to take some shelter."

The twin pegasi exchanged blank looks. Toola Roola said "Um Starsong, how did you know that?"

Starsong said "I've read some meteorology books when I was little, figured it would help when setting up concerts. I still read them in private from time to time."

The four ponies were still talking about the strange weather. Later the Doctor and his group had seen someone in a snowsuit from a distance. The figure gestured for the Doctor and his companions to follow. She then left the room. They followed her into an abandoned building.

Chiswick 9:00 AM

Donna Noble had just woken up in her bed. She got herself ready for the day. She saw an eye-patch next to the note. The note said.

You will need this for the chaos arrives.

Donna said "Shawn, this is not funny." She noticed that Shawn Temple was not here. "Shawn?"

Donna checked her calendar. The date said 11/6/2102. She was baffled. She took the eye-patch and put it in her pocket. She started having headaches and remembering meeting someone before a wedding. She saw a man with a suit and glasses. She saw a red spider and her web of evil. Donna could barely hold her concentration. Donna managed to go outside. There she saw the streets were purple and green. The sky was red and the clouds were pink. There was a hailstorm and she saw a mob running away screaming "This be the work of Yog-Soghoth, the end is nigh."

More memories had returned she subconsciously put on the eye-patch and fainted out in the snow. Some figures were in the distance, closing in on her...

London 10:00 AM

The Doctor's group entered the abandoned building. They entered a pathway leading underground.

Rarity was getting a bit anxious. She said "A tunnel? This is just great. My hooves are getting all dirty."

Applejack said "Will you forget about your hooves Rarity." Part of the ground turned to a soap trail under they hooves and the two mares fell on their flanks. Everyone else managed to avoid slipping. The orange earth pony and white unicorn were able to stand up while Pinkie Pie was sliding down the suds.

Eventually they went through the tunnel and found an underground base. There was blue and purple everywhere. They saw a man giving orders to some people in a snowsuit. He said "Team 11, we need to find the source of all this chaos."

"Captain, we've found the Doctor." said one of the people in one of the snowsuit.

The man looked around until he saw the Doctor. He said "Doctor, long time no see."

The Time Lord recognized that voice. He said "Jack? What are you doing here?"

Jack Harkness stood up and said "You know, it's a funny thing. One minute I was seducing ladies in Costa Rica. The next thing I know I was catapulted 90 years into a world gone mad. I see you brought some friends."

Everyone introduced themselves to Captain Jack Harkness. The Doctor said "Did you know what happened?"

Jack said "Some madman with a bad chimera suit started wreaking havoc and the next thing I know is that we got cotton-candy rainclouds over the entire world among more deadly things. Florida was even sunk to the sea."

Another man said "Captain, Martha and Gwen are returning now."

Jack said "Good tell them that their house call has worked." The man then left.

The Doctor was a little surprised. Jack said "Martha has been helping Torchwood form time to time."

Rose said "Do you think that he had something to do with this?"

"Rose, since the last time we've met I have seen many things. In in these things I know an alien or so called god tends to be behind then, from the 456 to the Blessing. Which reminds me," he looked to the Doctor and said "Where were you when the 456 invaded earth?"

The Doctor said "I was busy ..." He realized that Jack may not know a bout the cracks.

Another man went up and said "Captain they're here."

Jack said "Ah, we'll meet them at the 67th hanger" He looked to Pinkie Pie and said "And maybe show you how we party here on earth."

Pinkie was intrigued by that suggestion. However everyone else, especially Rainbow Dash was baffled. They went to the 67th hanger.

London 11:00 AM

The group went to the 67th hangar. There they saw a flying carriage with flying pigs. Applejack was a little stunned by this. Martha Smith-Jones and Gwen Cooper came out of the carriage.

Gwen deadpanned "We were near a pumpkin patch in Tennessee when the plane fell."

The Doctor said "Hello, long time no see."

Martha said "Doctor? You look different." She then noticed the little ponies that were with him.

The Doctor introduced everyone with a little help form Pinkie Pie. They then explained what happened to Equestria and Pete's world now what was happening now. Meanwhile Cheerilee took the fillies elsewhere.

"So you're saying that The Master has returned and merged with some being named Discord?" Jack said.

Twilight said "Of course."

Martha said "And there's this cult running around trying to kill you before you can reach somewhere called Trenzalor?"

The Doctor said "Yeah pretty much, I'm not sure to what extent the two are related. though."

Gwen said "And your plan to defeat this Master/Discord/whatever is to use special jewelery on him?"

"Eyuup." Applejack said.

Gwen said "Why not stranger things are still happening now."

A man in a snowsuit said "Captain, we found a castle floating in the sky."

Jack said "Looks like we found our man. Have a team check the premises." The man had left.

The Doctor thought 'The Master would like to show off.' Then he said "Whoever we are dealing with is two beings in one body. the stain of the fusion may leave the result conflicted as the two sides wrestle for control."

River said "So we can split them apart?"

Twilight said "No I don't think that's possible even in this mess. They seem too much alike, it's impossible to separate them in this state."

Rose said "We will need to find something they disagree on." The Doctor had a idea. The man had reappeared and told Jack that the man they're looking for is inside the castle. Everyone decided to head to the castle and try to stop The Maestro of Discord before it's too late.

Dschubba ♏ Chaotic Road

London 12:00 NOON 11/6/2102

Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper went to get a vehicle that could transport the Doctor and his group to the castle.

Gwen said "Why can't they just take their TARDIS up to the Master?"

"The Doctor said that the TARDIS can't properly fly in this world. It's too mad." Jack said.

They saw a long van with "TORCHWOOD" written in yellow letters. Gwen opened the van and said "Oh look we drove a clown car."

Jack went to check out the van only to discover that it's bigger on the inside, like the Doctor's TARDIS. The vehicle was at least 6 times bigger inside. He said, "Well we now have something that we can travel in." They drove the van back to the 67th hangar.

London 12:05 PM

The Doctor's group was waiting at the underground base. Martha, Rose and River were packing sonic blasters in a small bag. Amy and Rory were also gathering weapons and other things to set back whatever may block their way.

Several Silurians were monitoring the status of the outside world. They saw people bursting into flame and ball lightning destroying homes.

The ponies were busy waiting and preparing for the trip. Twilight Sparkle was curious on how Jack and the others were able to keep this place relatively orderly, given the chaos happening outside.

Jack and Gwen returned with the van. Everyone was a little surprised at how small it was.

Rainbow Dash said "You think that van is big enough for all of us?"

Jack said "Not until I saw that it was turned into a clown car."

Pinkie Pie went inside the vehicle and came out wearing white face paint and red rubber nose. Everyone went inside and took the supplies. Jack told everyone to try and keep the people in this place safe as the van drove out of the underground base through a ramp in the hangar.

London 12:13 PM

The van was driving through a giant hailstorm with hail made of chocolate milk and rainwater. Twilight cast a force-field over the van to keep the weather out.

Captain Jack went to The Doctor and said "Do you think that this world is a paradox?"

The Doctor said "Well it's hard to say considering that there's too much to keep track of."

The van passed a small building with a weather-vain. the weather-vain was a giant question mark with the points having the letters W, H,A, and T. There were also waterfalls going up and floating buildings and the roads twisted and turned to impossible angles.

Pinkie Pie was sticking her head out the window with a large cup trying to get the raining milk. Rainbow Dash said "Are you kidding me!? Pinkie you don't know what in that milk."

Pinkie Pie said "Sure I do Dashie. It's Chocolate Rain." The pink pony then put the cup back in the van. It was filled with chocolate milk and had two straws in it. She said "Want some?" Rainbow Dash looked at Pinkie's eyes and decided to drink the milk.

The Doctor was talking with Rory. They looked at the women who were having their own conversation about the weather. The Doctor said "The one neutral topic turned on it's head. Along with everything else."

Rory said "How come the van and the base aren't ... you know." He could not find the word to describe the chaos happening outside.

The Doctor explained that the world was changed by a paradox. Then said "Keep that in mind when you see two of your wife again."

The van was a third of the way to the impossible castle. The castle looked like several towers were twisted and turned. Like an warped amalgamation of various building haphazardly thrown together.

London 1:00 PM

Lyra and Bonbon were looking outside the van. They saw multiple animals' legs turn to stilts outside. The people out on the streets were running in fear as their world became an eldritch hell around them.

Lyra said "Do you think this world is worth it Bonbon?"

Bonbon said "What do you mean?"

"I thought that it would be great to explore the land of humans, but now..." said Lyra ash she looked at the sad state of the Earth.

"Lyra dear, at first I just thought this place was just you being um off." Bonbon said "But now at least I know that you weren't as crazy as I thought ." She chuckled.

"Hey!" Lyra said.

"I'm just kidding." Bonbon said "But you do realize that this planet isn't in the state you expected."

"I know." She sighed.

"Look at the bright side. At lease we know we can fix this mess and return both earth and Equestria back to normal eventually. Maye we can visit this place again when that happens. You gotta cheer up. I may not understand this place, but I can at least know that it's shouldn't get you down."

Lyra was about to cry. She said "Thanks." They were about to nuzzle until Minty and Ditzy walked in the room of the van.

Meanwhile Starsong was reading a book an meteorology when Twilight came in and said "Hello."

Starsong said "Hi."

Twilight noticed the book and said "Where did you get that?"

Starsong said "Well I saw the book back at that underground base and the guy reading it gave it to me. I figured I'd compare and contrast how weather works here and back at Equestria."

Twilight said "I'd never guessed that you were into meteorology."

Starsong said "Yeah I get that a lot. I majored in it back at my university and since I figured that as a pegasus I should should try to figure out how the weather works."

"I see." Twilight said "Well I have several books on the subject you can borrow when we get back home."

Starsong said "Thanks." and left to join Toola Roola and the others. Twilight looked out the window and saw something heading for the van. She was getting a little worried, she tried to fortify her force-field and warn the Doctor.

By this point the van was almost at the castle. The castle now looked more like an giant spaceship looking bigger than even the earth yet still could ot be seen from 30 miles away. A large gate leading inside was open. There was a lever nearby.

London 1:30 PM

Twilight went to find the Doctor and Jack. They were in the front of the van. Gwen was driving.

Twilight wen to the doctor and said "We have a problem." Then pointed to her left.

Everyone saw that a stampede of elephants and bulls were heading for the van. Their legs extended to the height of towers. The Doctor left the room. Jack said "Gwen, stay on course we're almost there!" and left.

Gwen deadpanned "Aye aye Captain."

Jack Harkness and the Doctor ward every one about the stampede. Martha, Rose, Rory, Any and River picked up some sonic blasters. Applejack took some rope. Pinkie Pie brought out her party cannon. everypony else went and tried to find something to help ward back the stampede.

The van was nearing a bridge to the floating castle. There were two tall spires leaning toward the van.

The swarm of mutated animals were moving closer. Rose and Martha were shooting their blaster at the them but they didn't leave a scratch on the beasts. The stampede had breached the road the van was traveling on and started to follow the van.

Gwen was driving as fast as she could. Jack and the Doctor saw the gate to the castle closing.

The Doctor said "We need to keep the gate open!"

Jack said "I have a plan." and went to the the "bridge" of the van.

Applejack saw the lever near the door and the gate closing. She said "Rainbow, can you take this end and tie it somewhere?"

Rainbow Dash was confused but agreed. She took one end of the rope and tied it to a floating tree that the van passed. She returned and said "Ok it's hooked."

Jack went to the the wheel and said "Gwen let me drive."

Gwen said "What are you gonna do?"

Jack said "Break the speed limit, again." Gwen left the wheel and Jack got on the driver's seat. He took the cover off the wiring and began tinkering with then floored it. The van was going faster then ever, outrunning the herd of feral bulls and elephants.

Applejack however took the other end of her rope and made it a lasso. She stuck he head out and tried to throw the lasso to the faraway lever. She let go of the rope but had barely roped the lever. The rope was holding the lever in place, stopping the gates from closing.

The van was a few miles away from the van but the stampede was closing in on them. Pinkie started firing her cannon, the cakes and confetti had hit and stopped some of the elephants and bulls but they were still charging at the van.

By this point the van had entered the castle of the Maestro of Discord, but the elephants and bulls were still chasing them. They would not stop. River aimed her gun at the lever and fired. The shot had hid the rope and freed the lever causing the gate to fall abruptly. The van then stopped.

Twilight let the barrier down as everyone exited the van. Gwen and Cheerilee decided to stay and keep the fillies out of trouble. Everyone else began to search for the Maestro of Discord.

Iclil ♏ Seperation

??? 1:31 PM 11/6/2102

The Doctor's group was searching for the Maestro of Discord inside the castle. The dark red and bright purple walls were not attached to the floor and ceiling. The dark green floor appeared to be a mishmash of tiles that looked like, ice, the sea, the sky and space, None of which looked like they could bee stood on. The halls looked like the curve and twist into various shapes.The walls had doors of various shapes and sizes.

The Doctor said "Alright, we need to focus on finding him everyone."

Twilight said "Agreed. Do you have any ideas?"

The Doctor said "I'm afraid that I can't track him down in this place."

River said "Please don't tell me there's too much wood here."

The Doctor said "The wood is only part of the problem. The Master and Discord have merged into one composite' Two minds, one body." as he moved a few inches forward along with Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Applejack and Rarity. He said "As a result, The Master is therefore currently unrecognizable."

"Umm Doctor?" said Fluttershy. The Doctor checked the surroundings and found that everyone but him and the 6 bearers had disappeared and that they are in a desert wasteland with some dead trees. The branches all had melted pocket watches on them.

The Doctor said "Oh great."

??? 1:31 PM

"Doctor?" Jack Harkness said. For the Doctor, Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rarity had vanished.

Toola Roola and Starsong were a little scared. Cloudchaser and Flitter went up to comfort them.

Cloudchaser said "We will need to be careful alright?" The two mares nodded.

Martha, Rory and Rose were searching for them. Rose said "It's this place, it's toying with us."

River said "More like he's toying with us."

Jack said "Well it looks like we aren't gonna find him he--" Jack, River, Lyra and Bonbon vanished.

Rose said "He's trying to split us up." Before she vanished. By that point, Minty, Ditzy Doo, Amy and Rory had vanished as well. Leaving only Martha, Toola Roola, Starsong, Flitter and Cloudchaser.

Martha noticed this and said "Everyone vanished. We must be careful." The group of 5 went to looking for their friends.

Later Toola Roola saw the mysterious green pony again. The green one said "You know you're gonna lose everypony you know sooner later. It'd much more painless to do it now." and vanished.

Toola Roola said "What does she mean [lose everypony I know?]" She decided to get some answers and chased the green pony. Starsong noticed that her pink unicorn friend had vanished and and went after her.

??? 1:32 PM

Jack Harkness, River Song, Lyra Heartstrings and Bonbon found themselves in a Winter wasteland.

"Well this is just great." Jack said.

Lyra said "Well maybe we can find the others here."

Bonbon said "Well we'll have to find them fast, brrr this weather's freezing."

River checked her surroundings and saw something move behind her. She said "The cold may not be the least of our worries." She and Jack took out their weapons in case something goes wrong.

Later Lyra and Bonbon were talking to each other. Lyra said "You know this place is beautiful when you get past the chaos stuff."

"What chaos stuff? I think we left that behind when we woke up her." Bonbon said. They looked up to see a beautiful aurora.

Lyra smiled and said "We'll have some great stories to tell everypony when we come home."

Bonbon said "I'll bet."

They are having a wonderful time here in this moment until...

The ice below them started cracking beneath them. They had gotten to safe ground. Jack and River heard the ice breaked and went to find out what happened. A giant blue Sea Serpent had emerged from the ice water. Jack said "Sea Serpent, nice." He started shooting at the sea monster until it went back underwater.

River said "We can't stay here."

The group ran away from the beast looking for a way out. The sea serpent had broke through the ice in front of the group blocking their path. Lyra tried using her magic but she merely blinded the monster. The blue sea creature went back underground. They saw a door in the distance and to their left and ran toward it. River and Jack blasted the moving shadow in an attempt to stop the monster. But it was able to catch up and appeared behind them.

Jack tried to open the door and said "It's locked!" The monsters was preparing to attack. Jack said "Go I'll try and stop it!"

River said "What!? You must be mad."

"I'm not mad, I can take it just go!" Jack went ahead and charged into the sea dragon. The sea monster open it's mouth form there Jack fired a barrage of bullets in to the beast as it unleashed a cold gale. River shot the door open and she Lyra and Bonbon escaped and got through and out.

The beast's gale froze Jack alive and blew the door off the hinges. Afterward the monster sank to the bottom of the ocean.

River went back to see the aftermath. She examined Jack and said "You have got to be kidding me." Her examination revealed that Jack Harkness was immortal and will revive in a few hours. She said "Let's go, he'll be fine."

Bonbon said "Are you sure?"

River nodded. The two mares weren't convinced that Jack would be alive but decided that they had pressing matters to attend to. They took Jack's frozen body and moved forward.

??? 1:33 PM

Martha Jones, Flitter, Cloudchaser, and Starsong had caught up to Toola Roola in a forest of sorts. Cheery Blossoms were flying everywhere. Martha said "What were you doing? We need to stick together."

Toola Roola said "I'm sorry."

Martha noticed something was wrong about the multicolored maned unicorn. She said "Be careful okay?"

Cloudchaser noticed something move in the shadows. She went to Flitter and said "Flitter, we need to go, now."

Flitter said "Why, it's so peaceful here."

Martha heard another noise and said "She's right we have to go." The group then went to look for a way out. The saw a waterfall with the water flowing up and a nearby hill. AT the peak of the hill was a door.

"Alright, a way out." Cloudchaser said.

Martha noticed something and removed the large leaves and reveal a large gap between them and the hill.

"Oh." Cloudchaser said.

They heard a roar. Starsong said "That can't be good." They looked behind to see a giant tiger. The tiger was white and black all over and had characteristics of the sabre-tooth tiger. There are also some spikes protruding from the waist and the tail was a mace.

Strom-clouds appeared above them. Starsong thought 'An altostratus cloud?' not noticing the tiger in front of them.

Martha took her weapon out and aimed at the tiger. She said "Go now!" The scared ponies then made for the hill on the other side. Starsong was carrying Toola Roola across. She fired her blaster at the beast. But it retreated to the shadows. The clouds began to thicken and blot out the stars as rain fell from the sky. Martha went and followed the others. She went to her left and saw that the ponies made it out safely. Relived at that fact she went her own way to the door.

The altostratus clouds thickened to nimbostratus clouds when and rain increased. Martha noticed something was moving closer to her and ran toward the door. She had made it around the gap. The presence was moving closer until...

The tiger had returned the black stripes had been replaced with orange ones and the beast had sprouted green mismatched wings and was flying across the gap. Martha saw the mutated beast and made her way uphill. She fired several blasts from her weapon and managed to clip a wing but the beast was still moving. She had made it to the door. But the beast was still moving closer It had landed in front of Martha who was trying to move the door open. But the door won't budge.

The tiger was about to pounce at her but the door opened at the last second and several hands and hooves grabbed Martha and pulled her away form the animal and closed the door.

The people who got her out was River Song's group who had found Martha's group and save her from the beast. The ex-UNIT doctor was relived to see that she made it out. She said "Thanks."

River said "No problem." She was still carrying Jack Harkness around. Martha realized that he must had been injured and began to take care of him when he revives ad tends to to his wounds. The group of now 9 then continued to search for the Doctor and the others.

Lesath ♏ End of Chaos

??? 1:34 PM 11/6/2102

Amy, Rory, Rose, Minty, and Ditzy Doo found them selves inside a desert. They saw a door being blocked by a giant black turtle. The turtle had two snakes for heads and was sleeping in front of them.

Amy said "Well this is great."

Ditzy said "Maybe we can climb across?"

Rose said "I don't think so." They looked at the shell of the beast and saw mountainous terrain on the shell.

Minty said "Let's go back, maybe there's another way across."

The group turned around and saw that the path behind them was blocked. They were trapped. The giant turtle moved and the path shifted to a difficult but manageable path.

Rory looked at the snake heads and said "We will have to be careful, these heads are poisonous."

The group took their first step on the shell of the tortoise. They hears some hissing...

The snake heads had awakened and they had hissed at the group. Rory, Amy, and Rose began fireing their weapons at the heads. They shot one of the snake heads down and began running to the door. But the heads had returned and this time there are three of them. Rubber trees had appeared by that point. Ditzy had tripped on one and catapulted one of their fruit at one of the heads which them exploded at that point.

Rose had an idea. She said "The fruits, get them to the mouths." Amy and Rory then took the fruit and threw them at the snake heads. Which promptly exploded afterwards.

Rory noticed the remains wriggling and said "We're safe for now. Let's go to the door."

Later when the group was halfway to the door Minty was talking with Ditzy. The green earth pony said "Wow are you OK?"

The grey pegasus said "Yeah, I'm fine. I was just wondering."

"Wondering about what?" Minty said.

Ditzy said "Well I have this filly, Dinky and she was at school when I delivered your socks. I hope she's okay."

"So you're worried about daughter huh?" Minty went over to her friend and said "I'm sure she'll be okay."

"Are you sure?" Ditzy said.

"Absolutely." Minty said.

"Thanks." Ditzy said.

The group had managed to make to to the door. Rose tried opening it and said "It's locked."

Amy said "Great."

Minty said "Now what."

Everyone heard some hissing. The snakes heads were back and there were eight of them. The group was trapped. Amy fired her blaster again. There wasn't a scratch on the snake this time. The door began to open. Rory said "Go. Now." the girls did as were told and went out the door. But Amy and Ditzy stayed behind to help Rory.

Rory said "What are you doing? I said go."

Amy said "I already lost you twice. I swear I won't let that happen again."

Ditzy said "I have someone I want to save back home. I won't let her down."

Rory said "Alright."

The grey pegasus flew around trying to avoid the heads. She saw something behind the heads of the serpent. She said "Try firing here."

Amy and Rory tried to move behind the snakes and saw some floating orbs. They fired their blasters at the orbs and shot two of them. Two of the heads vanished and the remaining six were leering at the three. The orbs had started moving. Ditzy tried to hold one of them in place causing a tree to fall in the process. She bit on on of the orbs and threw them upward. Rory shot the orb and another head disappeared. With 5 snakes remaining the orbs moved more erratically and the head's attacks were getting more ferocious. One of the heads began to attack and Amy dodged and it bit a tree with one of the orbs and both the tree and the orb vanished.

There are now 4 snake heads left. The heads decide to go at them one at a time. they went after Ditzy Doo. The grey pegasus flew as fast as she could but the snakes were faster. She bumped into another tree and caused it to fall on the snakes head and one of the orb. There are three snakes left and one of them had a bomb on them Rory and Amy shot another orb, leaving two snakes left. The snaked went to attack with Amy and Rory in between. They dodged and caused one of the snaked to poisoned the other. There was one snake left and one orb left. Amy shot the orb and the snake went down...

But not before it bit Rory. The nurse was reeling form the damage as the entire beast dispersing. Amy, Rory and Ditz made a dash for the door and exited before the beast vanished. They saw River Song and her group.

Martha said "Are you alright." She was worried.

Rory said "I'm fine, I'm a nurse."

Martha said "But I'm a Doctor." She and Amy tended to Rory's wounds. Captain Jack Harkness began resurrecting.

Jack took a look at his surrounds and joked "Well that fight with the serpent went well I take it."

River snarked "Yeah it went well for someone who dies and reincarnated on a regular basis. How old are you really."

Jack said "Well beautiful it's hard to say, let see I was born in the 51st century, became a time agent, lost the vortex manipulator, took over Torchwood and never mind the details, are you single?"

River said "I'm married." When Martha took the poison out of Rory's system the group decided to look for the Doctor and the bearers of the elements of harmony.

??? 1:35 PM

The Doctor, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie were still wondering the desert. They saw a volcano.

Rainbow Dash said "How in the world did we get here in the first place?"

Twilight said "Discord must had winked us here."

"Or the Master," said the Doctor. "Or both actually. They have merged together,"

Pinkie Pie said "Oh look." She pointed her hoof to the volcano. She said "I haven't seen anything like that before. What is it?"

Rarity said "What a volcano? Pinkie that is ridiculous."

"You guys saw a volcano, in Equestria?" The Doctor said.

"It was during the great dragon migaration. Spike wanted to travel with them to get some answers."

"What did he find out?" He said

"That the dragons he was hanging out with were total--" Rainbow Dash said.

"Rainbow!" Applejack interrupted.

Fluttershy saw something come out of the volcano. She said "Um guys, you might need to see this."

The group saw a giant red phoenix come out of the volcano. The fire-bird had orange and yellow plumage and it's tail was burning with hellfire from the depths of the volcano and was flying away form the group.

The Doctor said "I think it wants us to follow it." The group decided to trail the phoenix. The eventually went to a door with the phoenix landing on top of it.

Fluttershy went to talk with the bird. She said "Um hello, can you tell us why did you lead us here? Um if you don't mind that is." Rainbow Dash put her hoof on her face.

The bird cawed and Fluttershy said "Ok, she said that she wants to leave and stop the Maestro of Discord."

"Well duh." Rainbow Dash said.

The Doctor said "Can you ask it why and how the Master and Discord were merged?"

Fluttershy nodded and relayed the Doctor's question. The bird answered and the yellow pegasus said "She says that the Silence had met with some cult and that they revived the Master to merge with the Discord statue that was stolen from Canterlot when they invaded Equestria."

The Doctor thought 'So the Silence weren't here for me then? What is their plan. I wonder...'

As the phoenix left the the door opened. The bird cawed and Fluttershy said "She said to be careful. The Maestro of Discord is very powerful."

"Alright." Twilight said. the group went through the door and saw that everyone else was just walking in.

Jack said "Doctor, I'm happy to see you're alright."

The Doctor said "You too. Anything happen?"

River said "Well Jack died...again, and Rory has been poisoned. Martha's tending his wounds now."

The Doctor was concerned he went to help tend to the nurse. Twilight meanwhile told everyone what they learned.

The Doctor managed to get most of the poison out. Everyone then saw a giant gate appear in front of them. The gate had a red gem at the bottom, a blue gem at the right, a black gem at the top, and a white gem to the left. There was a yellow gem at the center. The gate opened.

Twilight said "You think he's waiting for us?"

Rainbow Dash said "I don't know that wouldn't be like Discord."

"It would be like the Master though." The Doctor said. Everyone entered through the gate.

??? 1:40 PM

The Doctor's group had entered a throne room of sorts. Twilight and her friends made sure they were wearing the Elements of Harmony. Everyone else were looking for anything suspicious. They saw the Maestro of Discord drinking chocolate milk from a glass. He said "Well it took you a while to get here." He drank the glass and threw the milk to a nearby wall. The milk exploded. He then said "But not it's time for you you to leave. You're gonna throw off the chaos, and I had just begun making my first changes."

He snapped his fingers and there the group were standing over a giant hole in the ground. The Doctor whispered "Are you ready for this?"

Twilight said "Yeah."

The Doctor whispered "Good." He then went over to the Maestro of Discord and said "Okay we'll go after you agree with this one request."

"And what do you want?"

"Kill me." the Doctor said. Everyone else was shocked. River and Rose especially so.

River said "Doctor what are you doing?"

The Time Lord whispered "Don't worry, If I know him he won't let anyone else kill me."

The Maestro said in Discord's voice "Alright if you insist. Harmony in this planet is already dead in this place and Equestria was already sent to a hell unlike no other. Might as well take you with it."

The Doctor said "I'm sure he won't let you."

"Don't be so--" The Maestro said before switching to the Master's voice and saying "No I should kill the Doctor."

The voice switched back and the Maestro said "What, you want to kill him."

The Doctor said "Believe me he'd tried over the years Discord. He had tried to show me up and kill me and take over the world for who knows how long."

Twilight said "I don't know. But don't you think that maybe he wouldn't appreciate it if someone else beat him to the Doctor."

The Discord half of the Maestro said "What!? Why would this matter to you?" as the bearers were charging the Elements of Harmony.

The Master half said "I am the Master, and you shall obey ME!" They were bickering from within their minds. As the Element continue to charge and then they unleashed a giant rainbow blast. The rainbow blast hit the Maestro as he said "Noooooooooooooooooooooo..." Before being hit by the blast. The rainbow then jumped off him and out of the castle engulfing the world in one continuous stream of colorful light. There was a giant flash.

London 2:00 PM 6/11/2012

The Doctor's group had found themselves nearby the TARDIS back where they landed it. They saw the Torchwood van driving back. Gwen, Cheerilee, and the fillies jumped out and reunited with the group.

Gwen said "Well I don't know how you did it, bu t everything's back to normal."

The Doctor said "For now."

Later The Doctor and Jack were having a conversation. The Doctor said "Well you must really have met some nice people here, are you sure you don't want to come with us?"

Jack said "No I have to find Rex and explain to him why we were gone, and then there's the families to worry about. Martha has her own life too."

"I understand. Good luck Jack." The Doctor said.

Jack said "The 21st century is where everything changes Doctor. The world needs Torchwood just as much as the rest of the universe needs you."

The Doctor's group went back to the TARDIS as they said their good byes to Jack, Gwen, and Martha.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor went back to the dwarf star alloyed room and checked the Antikythera mechanism. The needle now points to Ophiuchus (⛎). They now have 50 pieces of chronosteel.

Applejack walked in the room. She was worried. The Doctor said "Are you alright?"

Applejack said "I'm fine professor. Are you okay."

The Doctor said "I don't think we're rid of either the Master or Discord yet."

Applejack agreed. Usually The Element wouldn't kill, even in the midst of Discord's chaos. Surely they must still be alive. She left the room with the Doctor.

??? ??:00

The Maestro was on another planet. There He saw several Silents and the eye-patch woman. She said "Well it appears that this plan failed. But don't worry, we have other plans for you."

The Maestro said "And what do we get out of this huh?"

"Revenge an both the Doctor and those wretched little ponies." The silents brought out a cell from the Stromcage-666. In the cell was Donna Noble. The woman with the eye-patch said "Olympus Limited had offered us a chance to stop him. Are you ready Master, Discord."

The Maestro nodded and said "We'll be sure to co-operate ma'am." He crossed his fingers behind his back for he was sure that she can't be trusted. They then left the spaceship with the cell.

Pinkie Pie was bouncing inside a metal sphere-shaped spacecraft. She said "Maybe I can find someone to party with here." as she happily bounced on the the starship. She looked out and saw a mostly pitch sky with two thirds not having stars. "Huh weird." she said. She passed a sign that said "108 still points."

She noticed something moved in the distance. But the silhouette moved away. Pinkie said "Hey wait!" The pink earth pony then moved and chased after the shadow. She got a closer look at the other pony. To her surprise, it was Pinkie herself, wearing her Element.

The Pinkie clone ran away. Pinkie said "Hey I need to talk to you." The shadow moved into a hallway that was frozen over. Pinkie skated across the hall and chased the shadow. Passing a sign that read "88 screaming stars."

Eventually she caught up the her doppelganger in a room that looked like a beach. There was a glowing sphere over the sea. Pinkie saw her friends in the distance, they too were wearing their own Elements of Harmony. "Another Harmony" was written in the sand.

She said to her friends "Hey guys..." But her doppelganger noticed her and gestured her to stay there. The tide was coming.

The cloned Pinkie moved closer to her friends and then the 6 ponies moved toward the water. Pinkie Pie could only watch in horror as the water dissolved their hooves and they mixed with the liquid. The bearer of the Elements were about to use them on the sphere, but the tide came. The tsunami took Pinkie's clone and her friends, and they dissolved into the ocean, Element and all.

Pinkie was now scared. The sea was readying for another tidal wave. The pink earth pony moved as fast as she can but as the clouds over her darkened and the wave was reaching heights unheard of Pinkie could only run in futility. The towering tsunami tried to cover Pinkie Pie who tripped on a tree branch. The wave had engulfed her and the entire island. Pinkie had tried to escape but saw her body turn to liquid and mix with the treacherous sea, until nothing was left.

TARDIS ??:00

Pinkie Pie had woken from a nightmare. One similar to what Rainbow Dash and Rarity described their dreams to be like. She went to find and tell her friends what happened.

Meanwhile the Doctor was talking to Rory and Amy in the dwarf star alloyed room. Rory said "So you think that the chronosteel brought us together?"

The Doctor said "Of course Rory, I did say that this chronosteel was made differently from the normal alloy, and that it had it's own unique properties as a result."

Amy said "But why?"

The Doctor said "Well perhaps it sensed something in you Pond. You did reboot the universe once and you remembered what happened in that aborted timeline."

Amy said "Don't remind me." They exited the room. Amy looked at Rose and said to the Doctor "But what about her?"

The Doctor said "Who, Rose?"

Amy said "You did say that she was trapped in an alternate dimension."

The Doctor said "I think she's here for the same reason you're here now. The chronosteel. You understand that had things been different you and Rory would still be home after our trip to that hotel."

Amy said "Maybe."

The Doctor then looked back at Rose and River. They discussed their adventures Rose said "I've seen things you would not believe."

River said "I had been raised as a weapon in the 51st century and traveled with the Doctor. Try me."

Rose said "I've met ghosts."

River said "I've seen angels, they're not as good as you think."

Rose said "Slitheen, in Downing Street."

River said "What about Daleks then?"

Rose said "I've met the emperor, and I had seen gas-mask zombies."

River rebutted with "Nazis."

Rose said "I've seen a whole alternate universe."

River said "I caused and helped abort an alternate timeline."

Rose said "What about a werewolf then?"

River answered "No haven't seen a werewolf, but I have witness the death and rebirth of the universe."

Rose was surprised. She said "Really?"

River nodded. By that point the Doctor had left to study and gather the coordinates.

TARDIS ??:00

Pinkie Pie had found her friends and told them about her nightmare. She said "I told you it's true. I still remember it like it just happened."

Rainbow Dash said "Pinkie, it did happen." She then sighed and thought 'First me, then Rarity now Pinkie, who's next Fluttershy?'

Rarity said "Excuse me?"

Rainbow Dash said "What?"

Rarity said "You said something about Fluttershy?"

Rainbow Dash said "What? no." She then thought 'What's going on it's though she could read my mind.'

Twilight was baffled. She said "Wait were you thinking we were reading your mind?"

Now Rainbow Dash was confused. She thought 'How did she know that?'

Applejack thought 'What the hay is going on? This is getting too weird.'

Pinkie thought 'I don't know. It's not as weird as those dreams though.'

Fluttershy gasped at this revelation. She blushed and said "Um you didn't hear anything form my mind did you?"

Rainbow Dash said "No Fluttershy, I didn't."

Fluttershy was a little relived. Twilight said "First these dreams, now this. Something's going on here."

Rarity said "Perhaps it's time to let the Doctor know about this?"

Twilight thought 'Okay, we'll let the Doctor know about this telepathy.'

The others agreed. As they went to the Doctor for some help.

Meanwhile Starsong and Toola Roola were in a room. The multicolored maned unicorn was painting something. She said "You sure this will work Starsong?"

The violet pegasus said "Sure, Maybe if you were asked to paint a specific thing. Maybe you won't be painting your dreams so often. Now paint some cumulonimbus clouds on a blue sky."

The pink unicorn said "What?"

The violet pegasus explained what these clouds were.

Toola Roola said "Okay." She then started painting some clouds on the easel. When she finished she said "So far so good." Then she looked at the painting and saw that the clouds and sky were both a foreboding gray.

Starsong said "Well at least you didn't paint your nightmares again."

Toola Roola said "Wait, maybe I can fix this." She tried painting over it. When she was finished the image now has the same storm clouds as a backgrounds. But there was a sword suspended over a bleeding heart shape. Two other swords had pierced the shape and the first has been suspended by 6 hairs. Two pink on one of them curled. two purple with one of them curled as well, one blond, and one strand of rainbow hair.

The multicolored maned unicorn signed. She and Starsong had covered the painting up and moved the easel to her room. They passed Cheerilee and the 3 fillies. The plum earth pony noticed her friend's distraught expression. They also passed Flitter and Cloudchaser. It was there that Starsong and Toola Roola went their separate ways. The pink unicorn put the easel away.

The TARDIS was about to land soon.

Corinth-VI 4:00 PM 12/9/5067

The TARDIS had landed on a planet called Corinth-VI, and nearby a building in a city. The Doctor and his companions have exited. There they saw a blond woman. The woman said "Hello there. My name's Cassandra. I've been expecting you Doctor."

The Doctor said "Expecting me?"

Cassandra said "The cards can tell me everything Doctor. Come inside all of you." She turns around and leads the group inside a nearby building. Once inside Cassandra pulled out a deck of Tarot cards.

She said "Well let's see now." She took out a card that says "The Fool" on it the card depicts the TARDIS in the time vortex. On top of the TARDIS was a man and his dog about to step off the top. The card had "0" on the upper left corner. Cassandra said "This is the card of beginnings. A genesis of your journey. This card tells me that you are looking for something. A McGuffin perhaps?"

The Doctor said "You could say that."

Pinkie thought 'How does she know that?'

Twilight thought 'I don't know.'

Cassandra took out another card and placed it on the table. The card depicts someone wearing a hooded cloak. He was carrying a staff with a lantern on it. The card read at the bottom "The Hermit." and had "IX" on the upper right. Cassandra said "This tells me that you are always on the move Doctor. You never stay in one place long. You only have one constant companion."

"And what's that?" The Doctor said.

"Death." Cassandra then put another card on the spread. The card show the 11th Doctor himself wielding a scythe. The card said "Death" on the bottom but the text had faded so much that it appears that nothing was on there to begin with. The upper right number read "XIII." Cassandra said "This card is one of change. It tells of someone who inspires great change. One who is refereed to by false names, for he keeps his real one secret. Doctor Death is the only companion that has been with you all this time. You've inspired great change but you must be careful or else this companion will drive all the others off the metaphorical cliff."

Twilight said "Are any of these card literal?"

Cassandra said "Usually not, these cards are highly symbolic." She placed a card on the spread. The card depicts Amy Pond with two cups. the card said "Temperance" on the bottom and had "XIV" on the upper right. Cassandra looked at Twilight and her friends and said "This is a card that tells of Harmony and the merging of opposites. Two worlds that intersected and became part of each other no matter how different they are."

Pinkie thought 'Why did you ask that Twilight?'

Twilight thought 'I have a feeling that these card are important somehow.' The Doctor noticed something was off with the bearers of the Elements.

Cassandra put a fifth card on the spread. The card had "The Magician" on the bottom and "I" on the upper right. The card image depicts the 10th Doctor with his sonic screwdriver lengthened to a staff and adorned with an infinity symbol. Cassandra said "This card is one of endless possibilities. It's no wonder that you would come to offer that to your companions." The spread is now in the formation of a pentagram.

The ponies were confused by the image as The Doctor never told them about regenerations before. Cassandra said "We will meet again and please note that these cards seem to be imbued with the power of the Sun." Twilight was confused by that sentence. The Doctor and his companions left the building and decided to rest in the TARDIS. For tonight.

??? ??:00

Hera Zeus met up with The Silents again. The eye-patch lady said "Well we expected the subjects to develop telepathy sooner."

Hera said "Yeah you'd think that those lotuses would produce immediate results beyond trapping you in dreams."

The eye-patched woman said "Where's Max Zeus?"

"He had another meeting today."

The two women were talking about their plans, unaware that Aphrodite was listening in on their conversation. She said to a device "Hades, go warn Thanatos. I think his brother's research was being used for more than just putting people inside perfect dream worlds." She then continued to listen and Hera and The Silence discuss their plans.

Sabik ⛎ Rhythm of Time

Corinth-VI 4:00 AM 12/10/5067

The Doctor and his companions had begun to split up and look for the chronosteel in the town. The Doctor noticed a tall clock tower. The clock's face was inside an ouroboros shaped like an infinity symbol. The tower itself was incredibly intricate. The walls were transparent and you could see all the gears at work.

The Doctor said "Magnificent." He continued his search when he passes two movers putting a Couch in a nearby house. One of them slipped and dropped the couch on his foot. The foot of the couch was sharp, so the mover screamed in pain. Rory and Amy noticed this and he said "Are you okay?"

The mover said "No I'm not Okay!"

Rory then said he was a nurse and asked to check his foot. The man decided to take off his shoe. Revealing that the foot of the furniture was sharp enough to pierce his foot. Rory told Amy to find an ambulance.

Corinith-VI 4:05

Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie were going another way. Pinkie's ears started to flop, her eyes started to flutter and her knee was twitching. The pink earth pony looked around and saw an orange alien was not looking where he was going.

A nearby door was about to open in the alien's path. She decided to help the alien. She moved close to the door and said "Look out."

"Huh?" said the alien. The door opened with tremendous force. Enough force to flatten whoever was in it's way. The alien realized what had happened and thanked Pinkie. Another alien moved out the now opened door.

Twilight thought 'Pinkie what were you thinking?'

Pinkie thought 'My Pinkie Sense told me that that door was about to crush him. It wouldn't be any fun if he's has to go to the hospital. Then he may never experience the joy of bouncing around the buildings.' She then bounced around the sidewalk saying "Whee."

Cassandra exited a building and said "I see I'm not the only one who can predict the future huh?"

Twilight said "You're that card reader from yesterday. Cassandra right?"

Cassandra nodded and said "Would you like another reading?"

Pinkie said "Would I!?" She then bounced inside the building.

Rarity said "Well I guess it wouldn't hurt."

Rainbow Dash said "Fine." Applejack and Fluttershy also agreed to have another reading.

Twilight said "Alright."

Cassandra led them into another building. An ambulance had just passed by.

When they cot inside they saw that the interior was like where they first met her near the TARDIS. Pinkie Pie had just put on a turban and other clothes and said "Come one, come all and come see the future through my mystical orb of fate's energy."

Rainbow Dash and Twilight put their hooves on the faces. However Cassandra was slightly amused. But she said "Fortunetelling and divination are not as easy as looking at a crystal ball." as Pinkie left the table. The prophet sat down there and said "Now to receive your reading, you must first ask a question."

Pinkie said "Okay do you know who we are?"

Rainbow Dash thought 'Pinkie we just met her yesterday. There's is no way that she would had known us.'

Cassandra said "The cards will tell the answer." She began laying 7 cards face-down in a spread with one card in the center surrounded by the others. She flipped the one on the upper right. The card depicted Applejack sitting on the throne surround by several wands. She was wearing a crown over her usual hat. The upper right Had a capital K. Cassandra said "This card is the king of wands. A card of Honesty and Trustworthiness, of course you don't really seem like the type for bold ideas Applejack."

Applejack was stunned. She said "How do you know my name?"

The prophet said "The card told me of course." She flipped the card below the king of wands. This card depicted Fluttershy against a manticore with a reflection on the bottom. The upper right read "VIII" and "The Strength" was on the bottom. Cassandra said "The strength a card of Kindness and hidden power. But also a card of passivity. Be careful Fluttershy. This card fits you more than the last card did for Applejack but the card would reverse itself you would not know the difference."

Fluttershy said "I don't know."

Pinkie said "But Fluttershy, you were the one who saved Twilight from that cockatrice remember."

Rarity said "And you found out what was troubling that manticore as well."

Twilight said "And you saved Equestria from being covered in dragon smoke for 1000 years."

Fluttershy said "I guess. But still..."

Cassandra said "Remember your greatest weakness can only be over come if you posses the Strength to face your fears and from what the cards tel me. You had done that to aid your friends. Onto to the next one." She flipped the bottom card. The card depicted Pinkie Pie in a similar image to Applejack's card, But the top of her throne was not seen and her crown was different. The upper right had capital Q on it. Cassandra said "The queen of wands. Always there to party and bring a smile to her kingdom. Pinkie Pie, does that remind you of anypony?"

Pinkie Pie said "Of course. But isn't Princess Celestia a well princess."

Rainbow Dash said "I think she was referring to you Pinkie."

Pinkie said "Oh."

Cassandra said "This card suits you, if you'll forgive the pun." She then flipped the card on the bottom left. The card depicted Rarity levitating 6 bits form a scale and giving them to Bonbon and Lyra, in spite of her knowing the ponies much. The upper right had a 6 on it. Cassandra said "The 6 of Pentacles. A Generous card indeed Rarity."

Rarity said "That does sound like me."

Pinkie said "That's you exactly. Remember that time you wanted to make us dresses for the gala?"

Rarity said "Yes, that did not start well."

Cassandra flipped the card above the 6 of Pentacles. The card depicted Rainbow Dash and Applejack pulling a chariot in the Fall, though the angle made Rainbow Dash take up most of the card. Rory can also be seen in the Chariot. The card said on the upper right "VII" and said "The Chariot" on the bottom. Cassandra "The Chariot denotes Loyalty. A trait you are most familiar with Rainbow Dash?"

Rainbow Dash said "Yeah, but why is Applejack on this card?"

Cassandra said "The Chariot cannot be pulled by any one mare alone. It needs another to pull it. Even if you don't always like your partner. If you work with your friends you will achieve great victories. Like the times you saved your world from certain doom."

Rainbow Dash sighed and said "If that card symbolizes victory, How come it's not upside-down?"

Cassandra said "The Future's not set in stone. Time can be rewritten. Your victory will come. But you will still need to face many more trials before you can save your home." She then flipped the uppermost card. This card depicted Twilight Sparkle between two pillars. One was back and had a crescent moon and the letter B on it. The other was white and had the sun and a letter J on it. The upper right had "II" and "The High Priestess" was written on the bottom. Cassandra said "The High Priestess. This card is associated with wisdom and magic Twilight."

Twilight said "I see. What about the card in the center then?"

Cassandra said "This card is what brings you together." She flipped the card in the center. The card shows an image of all 6 ponies using their Elements of Harmony. 10 cups were being levitated by the Sonic Rainboom. The upper right had the number 10 on it. Cassandra said "The 10 of cups. A card that signifies true friendship and Harmony. Your bond is strong enough to outlast any attack your enemies may through at you and withstand even the darkest hour. Keep that in mind."

"Okay thanks for the reading." Twilight said.

"No problem." Cassandra said "Come again." The 6 ponies then left to find the chronosteel.

Corinth-VI 8:00 AM

The Doctor, River Song, and Rose Tyler were looking for the chronosteel. They saw a group of people around the clock tower. One of them said "You here to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the tower?"

Rose said "What anniversary?"

The man said "500 years ago a ship crashed here. The survivors led by someone called [Sisyphus] had cultivated and terraformed this planet. Ever since we have a peaceful kingdom. However he spent his time trying to out do himself. Eventually another power came to visit this planet. He offered to help Sisyphus better himself by giving him immortality. Sisyphus agreed and we've been living in peace ever since."

"Sounds like a dreary place to live in." River said.

The mans said "Then war broke out among us. People were beginning to think themselves better then Sisyphus. He himself thought himself better then his benefactor and sought to overthrow hem. They didn't like that and their leader punished them by turning him into an ouroboros. And then ended the civil war this clock tower was built to commemorate the new ruler and the peace that followed." We celebrate this event for only one day every year and this is that day. Or so the legend says."

"I see." Said the Doctor. "Did any meteors crash here?"

The man replied "Not that I know of. Why do you ask?"

"No reason." The Doctor said. "Goodbye." The group then left. They saw an ambulance move past the ceremony with Rory and Amy nearby. The group went to investigate. Passing two Silurians entering a bank. The ambulance stopped at noon and The Doctor, River, and rose caught up to Amy and Rory, who explained what happened.

"Spiked furniture?" The Doctor was a Little baffled.

Amy said "Yeah."

Then Cassandra appeared form a building and said "Why are you so confused Doctor? Sure you've seen many things madder then shaped feet."

The Doctor said "What are you doing here?"

"I want to give you another reading. I want to know what you've been doing recently." Cassandra said. A table had spontaneously appeared in front of the oracle and she said "Shall we begin?" She shuffled her card and put 6 of them in a spread. Most everyone was baffled by the table's appearance.

The Doctor noticed something off about her. He said "What do you know about the chronosteel?"

Cassandra said "I know that it's the reason that you're even here in the first place Doctor." She flipped the first card up. It was the Death card. She said "I know that in your search for it you had saved a man from being a monster..." She flipped the second one witch depicted Donna Noble holding a set of scales. The card said "Justice" at the bottom with "XI" at the upper right, or it would had if the card wasn't upside down. "...faced and shut down a corrupted prison, twice..." The next card she flipped had "Judgement" at the bottom and "XX" at the upper right but the Doctor couldn't make out the picture. "...helped a scientist faced his mistakes and saved his family..." the next card was a somewhat peculiar one. The moon was on the picture with a dark blue alicorn with a starry mane looking at it. "...Saved your friends from a wretched nightmare..." The next card she flipped was had someone steal 5 swords from a castle and a coat of arms still inside. It had an 7 on the upper right and was also reversed "...But you failed to stop a robbery..." The last card she flipped had "The Devil" on the bottom and "XV" on the upper right but it like Justice and the 7 of Swords was also upside down. The image was a near replication of One of the stain glass windows depicting Discord, confusing everyone here as they haven't seen that window. "...And you also let a terrible foe go free, tough you did stop him from ruining your world he's still free to trap you is he so wishes. keep that in mind Doctor."

The Doctor said "I will."

Cassandra reshuffled and said "Remember. The arcana is the means by witch all is revealed." She then left. The Doctor and his group continued their search.

Corinth-VI 3:00 PM

The other ponies decided to leave the TARDIS and go sight-seeing. Flitter and Cloudchaser were practicing their flying, Starsong studied the weather, Toola Roola and Cheerilee were teaching Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo, Lyra and Bonbon were looking for romantic spots, and Minty and Ditzy stayed in to look for muffins and socks together.

Eventually everyone went back to the TARDIS to rest and find the chronosteel tomorrow.

Corinth-VI 7:00 PM

Back at the bank the two Silurians from before were running toward the clock tower. The authorities were chasing the reptilian aliens. But they had entered the tower. One of them said "Well that was close but man Charybdis. Did we hot the jackpot or what?" as she dropped his bag and fixed her blue clothes.

Charybdis said "Yeah but this is only the beginning Scylla." She dusted off her red cloths and dropped her sack of stolen money. Scylla and Charybdis then examined the giant ouroboros and examined a terminal. Charybdis began hacking the computer. She said "And, done." The ouroboros had stopped at midnight.

Scylla said "Tomorrow they won't suspect a thing. because there won't be a tomorrow." They went back inside the clock-tower. A bright light had emitted from the tower and started to engulf the world.

Cebalrai ⛎ Sisyphean Loop

Flashback(Manehatten)

Cheerille and Toola Roola were getting along well. The school year started 2 months ago. They were inside the cafeteria. There they saw a violet pegasus with a pink mane and glasses. The pegasus was alone and reading a book on climates.

"She must feel lonely." Toola Roola said.

"We should talk to her." Cheerilee said. The two ponies went to the table and Cheerilee said "Hello. I'm Cheerilee, and this is Toola Roola."

The violet pegasus put her book down and said "Starsong. How do you do?"

"Fine." said Cheerilee.

"We noticed you were reading alone, can we sit with you?" Toola Roola said.

Just then a yellow stallion came into the room and said "Why would you want to sit with this wimp?"

Cheerilee was a little annoyed. She said "Because we're not jerks Jockstrap."

"Eh, whatever. Enjoy your lunch losers." Jockstrap left.

Starsong sighed. Toola Roola said "Cheer up. Don't let Jerk-strap mess with you."

"I guess." Starsong said.

Cheerilee said "So what do you want to after college?"

Toola Roola said "Well I want to be a good artist."

Starsong said "I plan on being either a meteorologist or singer. What about you Cheerilee?"

Cheerilee said "Well I guess I want to help the little fillies and foals of Ponyville. The town I grew up in."

"That's a wonderful goal you get there." Toola Roola said.

"Thanks. Your goals are good too." Cheerilee said.

Lunch was over and Starsong said "Well I gotta go. I can't be late to choir. See you later." She grabbed her book with her mouth and flew away. Cheerilee and Toola Roola also went their separate paths for now.

TARDIS ??:00

The flash had subsided. The Doctor's group went to the control room.

Pinkie Pie thought 'Hey Twilight do you think we stopped the loop?'

Twilight thought 'I don't think so Pinkie.'

The Doctor did a role call to see if everyone's there. Sure enough Amy, Rory, Rose, River, Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Appejack, Rarity, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong, Ditzy, Lyra, Bonbon, Flitter, Cloudchaser, and Minty were here. The group then exited the TARDIS to find the chronosteel.

Corinth-VI 5:00 AM 12/10/5067

The group went their separate ways. The Doctor first went to the bank. River and Rose went with him. Rose said "Doctor why are you going to the bank?"

The Doctor said "Call it a hunch." They they entered the bank. The building had few people inside, mostly tellers. The Doctor went to one of the tellers and said "I need to speak to the manager."

The teller said "Okay but why do you need to speak to him for?"

"I have an important message for him." The Doctor said. The teller left the room to find the manager. During that time River called Rory who reported that this time he prevented the spiked furniture form landing on the mover's foot and that he and Amy were heading to the bank. The three then waited for the manager.

Corinth-VI 5:10 AM

Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy looked for the chronosteel. They noticed some clouds were thicker and greyer then they were before.

Rainbow Dash though 'What are these clouds doing here? I don't remember them being here?'

Applejack thought 'You also didn't remember seeing the van the first time.'

The rainbow-maned pegasus thought 'Well yeah but the Doctor said these species here were unable to interact with the atmosphere like us.'

Fluttershy thought 'Maybe we should wait until we find the van first?'

Rarity said 'Okay sweetie, any ideas?'

Pinkie thought 'Maybe we could check out the clock tower?'

Twilight thought 'What would the tower have anything to do with this?'

The pink earth pony shrugged. She thought 'I dunno, but it seems that the flash seems to start from the tower every night.'

Applejack was baffled. She thought 'What flash Pinkie?'

Pinkie thought 'The flash that keeps sending us back to the beginning of the day silly.' She then honk The orange earth pony's nose.

Twilight thought 'Okay so we check out the tower.' The other 5 ponies agreed and went there posthaste.

Corinth-VI 6:00 PM

Toola Roola, Starsong, Cheerilee, Flitter, Cloudchaser, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo were looking for the black van. The violet pegasus looked at the sky and saw peculiar clouds. She said "Looks like a storm's coming this time."

Flitter and Cloudchaser noticed Starsong. They were a little baffled by her statement. Cloudchaser said "What storm?"

Starsong said "Well it looks like a hailstorm judging by the slight temperature drop. It will get colder as time goes by and the hail will fall here in a few hours."

Flitter said "You know a lot about the weather huh?"

Starsong said "Well I did research it a lot."

The twin pegasi were a little impressed. Cloudchaser said "maybe you could teach us a little bit?"

Starsong said "Sure I can."

meanwhile the Cutie Mark Crusaders were keeping an eye out for black vans. Toola Roola and Cheerilee were nearby.

Apple Bloom said "Maybe we can get our cutie marks in investigating."

Scootaloo said "That about as likely as bears jumping out of pictures."

Sweetie Belle said "It could happen."

Cassandra was nearby looking at the fillies. She drew a card from her deck. The card depicted Apple Bloom and her sister looking over a field of small apple trees with 7 bits. The upper right had an seven on it. Cassandra crew another card witch was the 4 of cups. She said "The 7 of pentacles and the 4 of cups." She looked at the fillies and noticed their flanks she said "I see, their impatience for their [cutie marks] huh. She drew the Star next and said "Well I'm sure they will get them eventually." and left to find the Doctor.

Toola Roola and Cheerilee caught up with them as did Flitter, Cloudchaser, and Starsong. They then saw a black van passing them. The direction the vehicle was coming form was the clock tower. Everypony deiced to investigate the tower and went there as well.

Toola Roola however saw the green pony that still haunts her and thought 'No more. I wont let my past shackle me any more.' She decided to tel the others as soon as they reached the tower.

Corinth-VI 7:00 PM

The black van had stopped at the bank again. Scylla and Charybdis stepped out of the vehicle. Scylla said "Well this will be easy." as the Silurians walked in the bank. They saw that that bank was empty and dark, they were surprised. Scylla said "I was right this will be easier than I thought." She took a step forward.

Charybdis stopped her and said "No this will not." She then looked at the semmily empty room and said "Show yourselves! This is a Stick-up."

Scylla whispered "What are you doing?"

The room lit up. The Silurians found them selves surrounded by Judoon and other Police. the Doctor, River, Rose, Amy, and Rory were also there. The Doctor said "So you're the robbers who put this planet in a time loop huh?"

A Judoon said "You two are under arrest for robbery and attempted robbery. We are taking you in for questioning."

Charybdis said "So someone besides us was in the loop as well huh? You'll never take us alive." The two Silurians instantly melted into a peach-colored puddle.

One Judoon said "What the hell happened?"

The Doctor examined the puddle and said "Flesh Avatars. They must had plant for this."

"The robbers had gangers?" The Judoon said. "Where are the real ones then?"

"I have an idea." The Doctor and his group were headed to the clock tower. the Judoon followed them.

Algol ⛎ Broken Loop

Corinth-VI 9:00 AM 12/10/5067

Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack & Fluttershy were at the tower. They saw that the bottom isn't transparent unlike the rest of the tower. The storm was brewing over head.

Twilight thought 'Well how are we gonna get in?' They saw no door in with to enter.

"Beats me.' thought Pinkie. 'Though I don't like beets.'

Rainbow Dash flew around the tower and saw a a door in the back. She said "Hey over here!" The other ponies followed her. Twilight tried her magic to levitate the door. She was able to open it.

Twilight thought 'Okay new we need to see what this tower has to do with the loop.'

Just then the other ponies saw Toola Roola's group. Twilight said "What are you doing here?"

Toola Roola said "We saw the black van come form here. We wanted to see if there's anything special about it."

Pinkie explained about the flash and the 18 ponies entered. Applejack and Rarity making sure their sisters are safe.

Corinth-VI 9:25 AM

The Doctor, Amy, Rory, River, and Rose were at the clock tower. The Judoon had the place surrounded. The chief said to the Doctor "The perimeter is secure. But I have to ask how do you know the bank was being robbed today?"

The Doctor said "It's a long story."

One of the Judoon said "Sir. the door has been opened. Someone else has been here."

The chief said "What? But who would go into somewhere like that?"

"I would." The Doctor said. "There's something i have to check in there anyway. And I'm sure I know who entered the tower."

"Are you mad?" said the chief. "That tower is dangerous. the gears that make the hands turn are very intricately placed and the only way up is through a flight of stairs that put you far too close to them."

"And if I don't the thieves are still free to bring their gangers out." the Doctor said.

The chief sees the Doctor's point. They have the tower surrounded but Scylla and Charybdis can still use gangers to fool the police. He said "Fine do what you have to. But make sure that the thieves are stopped."

"Thank You." said the Doctor. "Come along Pond, Rose, River, Rory." As he and his companions entered the tower.

Sisyphean Clock Tower 9:30 AM

The ponies had made their way up to the first flight of stairs. They say the gears twisting and turning. Rainbow Dash, Flitter, and Cloudchaser flew up ahead. Starsong looked outside and saw lightning strike the ground. She said "We must be careful."

Eventually the ponies reached a problem in the gap. Several gears were blocking the way. "Oh great." Rainbow Dash said. "What now?"

"Well perhaps you should start by telling me why you're here."

The ponies turned around and saw the Doctor and his companion. The Doctor said "Something tell me you think the tower's the cause of this."

Pinkie Pie bounced in front of him and said "Well you see there's this flash that keeps pooping up and it seems to come form the tower every night sine we've got here. I first wondered if the flash could be used to make popcorn and..."

While Pinkie rambled. The Doctor examined the place with the sonic screwdriver and timey-wimey detector. The latter device dinged and said "I think that tower has a lot to do with it."

Rose said "Doctor you think the chronosteel has something to do with it?"

"We will need to check. And we can;t do that from here. Come along." The group decided to find another way up.

Meanwhile at the top. Scylla and Charybdis were planning. Scylla said "Now what. The police have us surrounded."

"For now." said Charybdis. "We will have to wait until midnight before we use the ouroboros again."

"By the way." Scylla said "Did you notice the storm outside?"

"What storm?" Charybdis said. She looked out the window to see the lightning storm that was never there the last time they reset the day. "My god."

Outside the tower however Cassandra was looking at the deck. The card at the front depicts the clock tower being struck by lightning. "XVI" was on the upper right and "The Tower" was writ on the bottom. Cassandra said "Well this certainly can't end well but for whom?" The Judoon were busy securing the outside of the tower. One of them saw an alien with a scythe for a tail. The Judoon went to investigate. However when he was alone the monster took him with it's 4 hooked arms and a light began to emit from the mouth on it's chest. The Judoon vanished instantly.

Sisyphean Clock Tower 11:00 AM

The Doctor's group after climbing the the tower appeared at the thieves' lair behind the face of the clock. They saw Scylla and Charybdis bickering.

"This is all your fault!" Charybdis said.

"My fault?" Scylla said. "You're the one who--"

"Warned you not to steal the same money twice. Scylla you idiot! You've caused a pime tarodox. I mean--" Charybdis interrupted.

"Time paradox." The doctor interrupted. The Silurians were surprised.

Rose said "Doctor does this mean...?"

The Doctor said "I'm afraid it does." He turned to Scylla and Charybdis and said "And you know it don't you."

Charybdis said "I know it. She on the other hand--"

"You could've had told me you know." Scylla said.

"Doctor what's going on?" Rory said.

"Yeah who are [they?] The Silence?" Twilight said.

"No, much worse." The Doctor said. "Monsters that come in the presence of a paradox. I'd advise you to be careful Rory. They like their meals old. That goes for all of you."

"Why?" Rainbow Dash said. "What's coming?"

Just then several winged monsters come out of the tower. Twilight cast a force field spell over the group keeping them out for now.

The Doctor said "Answer your question?" He looked outside and saw more of the being around the tower. Though there appears to be none of them elsewhere. He said "What did you do?"

Scylla said "You know full well what we would had done. We would had robbed the bank and escaped while the rest of the planet was in a time loop."

Charybdis said "Thing started going to hell the moment you warned us. How do we know you didn't cause the paradox?"

River pointed her blaster and said "'Cause we don't have a black van, or gangers for that matter."

Scylla said "Good point."

Twilight said "What do we do now?"

Fluttershy said "Panic?"

Rainbow Dash thought 'That's your answer to everything!'

Fluttershy thought 'I know. But I'm not sure if we can defeat these creatures, even with the Elements.'

The Doctor said "Rose and I encountered them before. I think we have an plan. You two will lead us to where you took the money."

"And why would we do that. I bet they had took the Judoon outside by now. We could escape any time we wish." Charybdis said.

"From the Judoon yes. But not from them." The Doctor said.

Scylla said "He has a good point."

Charybdis said "Shut Up." After thinking about it and and noticing that Twilight's force field won't last any longer she said "Fine. Follow me."

The Doctor said "Pond, Rory stay here. You." He looks at Scylla and said "I want to know how you caused the loop in the first place."

"You think it will stop them?" Scylla said.

"I think it will prevent something much worse that them." the Doctor said. "Go now. We'll catch up." Everyone but the Doctor, Amy, Rory, and Scylla left the room. Twilight let the barrier go and went with them. Strangely enough the creatures didn't go after the Doctor. Scylla started hacking the computer. She stopped the ouroboros . there was a bulge poking inside. The Doctor saw that this bulge was inside whereas the rest of the snake was outside. he examined it and tried to break it.

He took part of the bulge off to find some chronosteel. One of them was teal and had the sign and constellation for Ophiuchus. The others had the constellations for Hercules, Serpens, Bootes, Vulpecula, Cygnus, and Lyra. The Doctor took the 8 spheres and reattached the part of the snake back and put the chronosteel inside a sack found nearby. He said to the group "Come on!" and they left the room to follow the others.

Sisyphean Clock Tower 11:30 AM

Rose's group was heading down only to find that the aliens had caused some gears to fall and and stopped entirely. There was a fire below them caused by the monsters.

River deadpanned "Well this is just great."

Twilight cast another force field over them and said "This one's weaker then the last but it should be able to protect us for a while."

Charybdis said "So now we know how to get rid of the aliens?"

Rose said "The last time we encountered them. They were banished by fixing the paradox. I think we may have to destroy the stolen money."

Charybdis was a little distraught. She said "I see. Burn the temporal copies and the paradox is averted huh? Let's hope it works." She then led them further down.

Meanwhile The Doctor, Amy, Rory, and Scylla were looking for them. now the monsters were going after them as well. Scylla started blasting at the monsters with a ray-gun form the van. Amy and Rory were separated from the other two when a gear came down and blocked their path.

The Doctor noticed this and said from the other side "Go. We'll find another way to you."

Amy and Rory agreed and ran form the monsters looking for another path. The gears that were being used as platforms fell after a shot while. Giving them little time to move. The monkey-like monsters were chasing them, more specifically Rory.

They seemed to found a door. But the monsters were right behind them. By the time they opened to door the monsters were already behind them. They were ready to attack. Rory said "Amy, go now. I'll hold them off."

"I'm not leaving you again." Amy said. She was already behind the door.

"I'm sorry." Rory closed the door on her and began to charge at the monsters.

"No, Rory." Amy said as she looked at the battle. One of the aliens had grabbed the last centurions and he disappeared in a bright light. Amy was broken, but she know that Rory anted her to escape and so she dis. She tried to find her way back to the Doctor and the other to tell them what happened.

Eventually she did find the Doctor and Scylla. She then explained that the monsters had got her husband. The Doctor cheered her up and told her that there's a way to bring him back. they went to find the others, The Doctor explaining how on the way.

Rose's group had eventually gotten to where Scylla and Charybdis kept their stash. But by that point Twilight's spell had faded and most of the group was taken leaving only Rose, River, Charybdis and Toola Roola. The group of four saw the loot on the flow that seemed ready to collapse at any second now. A blazing inferno burns below. The Doctor's group had manged to get to them as well. They explained their losses and then worked to stop the flying scythed tailed monsters.

River said "So how do we do it?"

Scylla said "Simple." She cut a giant hole around the loot and it fell to the infer no burning to ashes.

All the stolen money was burned to the ground but the monsters are still here. Amy said "Why are they still here."

The Doctor notes "This place was trapped in a time loop pond. We must force the day to restart again. Come on!" The group went back to where the computer was.

Sisyphean Clock Tower 10:50 PM

It was almost midnight. The Doctor's group had made it to the top of the tower. Scylla started hacking the terminal. She placed the chronosteel the Doctor found next to the monitor and said "So we filter out the money we already took?"

The Doctor nodded. Just then the monsters had appeared and took Charybdis and Rose. Scylla said "Crap. Cover me!" The Silurian was still configuring the date. River and Rose were shooting at the monsters but for everyone they shoot down tho more seem to take their place. soon the wall and he ceiling were covered with them.

Eventually they took The Doctor, Rose, River and Amy. By that point it was 11:50 PM. Toola Roola was evading the monsters, and Scylla was trill at the terminal. She said "Okay done." One of the keys began to glow red. "Now to stop this madness." But one of the monsters had grabbed the Silurian and she vanished.

Now Toola Roola was alone. The aliens with scythes for tails flew outside of the tower.

"Alone again. How unsurprising."

The pink multicolored maned unicorn was surprised. It was the green pony again. She said "All your friends are gone. You're all alone. Just as it should be."

"Who are you?" Toola Roola said.

The nameless green pony said "I'm you. Isn't it obvious?"

Toola Roola was scared she said "No. You are not Me!" She went to the terminal attempting to fix this mess. But the green pony blocked her and said "I'm the ones who fears her father for what's he's done to her mother."

"Stop it." Toola Roola said. She trotted away from her but...

the name less pony winked in front of her and said "I'm the artist who paints nightmares like a depraved psychic."

"That's not true." The pink unicorn trotted int another direction. The monsters above were descending and the fire below rises.

"Oh you lie to yourself too. Always keeping secrets, ever since you went and met that so-called [Goatman.] You changed and for the worst I might say."

The multicolored maned unicorn managed to reach the terminal. but her counterpart said "You might be better off dead. Your friends are gone. Nopony can save you now. Silence will fall, and there's nothing you can do about it."

Toola Roola was hurt. She sighed and said "You're right. I was running form my past for too long and always hiding it away. Perhaps my paintings were telling me that I can't run from my past. But I can't let it dictate who I am either. Not like this."

Now the green pony was the one feeling scared. She said "What are you doing? You can't win. You already lost."

"Wrong." Toola Roola said. "This fight isn't over yet. I will not let you scare me any more." She pressed her hoof on the red button. A great flash had engulfed the tower. The monsters were disappearing all at one. And the nameless green pony was running away from the blast. But she to was engulfed and vanished with out a trace.

Sisyphean Clock Tower 12:01 12/11/5067

The flash had subsided. The loop broken. Every one taken by the monsters inside the tower had return in one place: the top.

The Doctor had took the sack of chronosteel and asked everyone to come out side. When Scylla and Charybdis went out. They found that the Judoon had also returned and were arrested for robbery and time-associated crimes.

On the way back to the TARDIS they meet Cassandra in the same place where they first met her. She had a table in front of her and several card already laid out. She said "So you kept the wheel spinning. Kinda lucky of you asked me." She flipped the first card. The card depicted Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rarity on top of a wheel that looks like Yin-Yang along with a Spinx. At the bottom was a bear, a hydra, some dogs, a changeling, a dracoequus, and a wendigo. The upper right read "X" and the "The Wheel of Fortune" was written on the bottom.

"How so?" The Doctor said.

"We could had have who knows what done to us." Rainbow Dash said.

"Exactly." Cassandra said "However more than luck had saved you know." as she looked at Toola Roola. The next card she flipped depicted a ship with Toola Roola and 6 swords. There was a 6 on the upper right Cassandra said "You learned not to let your past control you any more I assume."

The pink unicorn said "Yeah." She realized something and said "Can we get back in the TARDIS?"

The Doctor said "Of course." as everyone went back to the TARDIS. Cassandra however asked the Doctor to say for a little longer for some reason.

She flipped the last card. It was The Fool, but upside down. She said "I sense a connection between the cards and these little ponies. Perhaps it is best that you take this deck." as she put the the three cards back in the deck and placed it down.

"May I ask why?" The Doctor said.

"Remember Doctor, The arcana is the means by witch all is revealed. your little doohickeys may tell you the destination. But the journey is up to you. Good luck." She then walked away from her first shop and disappeared. The Doctor then looked at the deck. The top card showed Princess Celestia being ridden by a young man. "XIX" was written on the upper right and at the bottom of the card "The Sun" was written. The Doctor took the deck and returned to the TARDIS.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was inside the dwarf star alloyed room. He let the chronosteel go take their place in the spinning room. The sign for Ophiuchus (⛎) glowed a radiant cyan. The Doctor now has 59 pieces of chronosteel. The Antykythera mechanism was turning. it's form reminded the Doctor of the clock tower they were just in. The needle now points to Sagittarius (♐). The Doctor took the device again and began to study it.

When he got out he took a look at the Tarot deck he'd received. The front card depicts Twilight and her closest friends hanging at a pole by their tails. The pole was between two trees. The upper right of the card read "XII" and "The Hanged Man" was written at the bottom. The Doctor was disturbed by the image, he went to study the card and find the coordinates of the next pieces chronosteel.

Rukbat ♐ Nightmare's Kindness

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was studying the mechanism and inputting the coordinates. To his side, the Tarot deck Cassandra gave him, with the Hanged Man outside. The Doctor looked at the deck and said "Well lets see what I'll get now." He put the Hanged Man back in and shuffled. The Doctor pulled out 4 cards and placed them face down in a spread resembling a cross.

He flipped the top card up, It was the Star. He then flipped another, which was the 7 of swords. He flipped the bottom one and saw the Hanged man he'd put back. And the final card he flipped was the Temperance.

The Doctor was a little surprised by the result. Especially since he's put the Hanged Man back in the deck. Fluttershy just walked in. She said "Umm hello."

The Doctor saw the yellow pegasus and said "Ah Fluttershy, hello." He looked back at the spread and wondered what would happen next. Toola Roola also walked in and asked them to come to her room. The Doctor and Fluttershy followed her back to her room.

TARDIS ??:00

The multicolored maned unicorn had led The Doctor and Fluttershy to her room. Everyone else was waiting. River Song and Rainbow Dash were a little impatient.

Cheerilee and Starsong went to the artist and the violet pegasus said "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Toola Roola nodded and said "Yes. I can't let my past haunt me anymore." She opened the door to her room and unveiled her paintings.

Everyone was a little shocked. Though Pinkie Pie bounced and said "Wow that's the most impressive painting I've ever seen." Rainbow Dash was a little saddened.

The Doctor noticed a particular painting. This was one of the sword hung only by six hairs. he would have to ask her about that later. The Doctor went back to inputting the coordinates and everyone else went back to rest.

??? ??:00

Fluttershy had found herself inside a spacecraft different from the TARDIS. She took a look at her surroundings and hid behind a sign that said "108 still points" when she saw something move. She waited for the figure to move a little closer.

To her bafflement the figure in the distance was herself! But that clone was wearing her Element of Kindness. Fluttershy was scared of her clone. She wondered what it could mean. She said "I must be brave." gulped and followed the clone.

She tracked her clone deeper down the spaceship. She saw that her clone was just as timid as she was. She thought 'Maybe I should help her?' when she saw the clone trip.

She went up to the clone and said "Um hello?" surprising her clone in the process.

The Fluttershy clone said "W-who are you?"

"Fluttershy, you?"

"That can't be right. I'm Fluttershy." She hid behind a corner that said "88 screaming stars."

The first Fluttershy thought 'Am I really that timid?' She went to her and said "Um, did you have somewhere to go?"

"Um-huh." said her clone. "I have to meet my friends somewhere in this ship."

Fluttershy pondered for a second. She thought over the possibility that her clone might be talking about the other bearers of the Elements. She said "I'll help you find them."

The clone said "You will?"

"Of course." Fluttershy said before realizing that she just arrive on this ship without know how she came here in the first place.

The Fluttershy clone said "Thanks." The two Fluttershys went off to find her friends.

They searched high and low for the others and eventually went inside a peculiar room. The room looked like a empty desert underneath a sky. They saw a fan and a grid below their hooves and the other bearers of the Elements of Harmony in the center of the large room. There was also a glowing sphere. "Another Harmony" was written on the entrance behind them.

The Fluttershy clone said "Thanks." and went to join her friends. Fluttershy however noticed the temperature drop and saw the clouds swirl and grow dark and thick until they covered the sky. Her doppelganger and friends were ready to use the Elements on that sphere. But...

"Get out of here!" Fluttershy saw a tornado forming above the other 6 ponies. She went to warn them but she wasn't fast enough. The tornado engulfed her doppelganger and her friends. She could see pink, purple, white, orange, blue, and especially yellow streaks the 6700 mph winds. And she could see them shrinking in height as the tornado grows bigger and closer. She tried to run away as fast as she could but it was too late. She was caught inside the tornado's grip and was soon engulfed by the winds.

When she was trapped inside Fluttershy saw her clone and her friends still trying to escape only to be blown back to the center. She also saw cherry blossoms inside the tornado for some reason.

The blossoms were blowing over herself and everypony else in the tornado. attaching to the ponies until they were entirely covered in petals. One by one the petals covered them whole and blew away with leaving a trace of who they were covering leaving only Fluttershy. But she was already covered halfway in petals. She struggled and screamed and tried to get the petals off her but she was soon trapped within a cocoon of cheery blossoms which was itself trapped in a tornado. She gave one last scram when the petals dispersed.

TARDIS ??:00

Fluttershy had woke up. She was a little relived that it was a dream. She thought to her friends 'Can you meet me outside my room?' and exited her bed.

Later Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash met her inside the hallway outside her room. She though 'I had a...'

'Bad dream?' Twilight thought.

Fluttershy nodded and thought 'It was awful...' She began explaining her dream and it's differences to the other ponies present.

Rainbow Dash thought 'Hold up, You actually met you doppelganger in your dream?'

The yellow pegasus thought 'Yes.'

Applejack thought 'Now that's certainly strange.'

Pinkie Pie thought 'First Dashie, then Rarity, them me and now Fluttershy. Hmm...'

The rainbow maned pegasus thought 'Are you on to something Pinkie?'

The pink earth pony thought 'I got it. We must be missing Ponyville.'

Everyone was a little astonished by the suggestion. Fluttershy said "Um Pinkie are yo--"

Pinkie said "Don't worry Fluttershy. We'll find a way to ease your spirits." She then took Fluttershy and went out of the corridor.

Rainbow Dash thought 'You don't think these nightmares are caused by homesickness. Do you?'

Twilight thought 'I don't know.'

Applejack thought 'Well Ah know that Twilight and I are the only ones so far that didn't have any nightmares like that. Maybe we can get some answers.'

Rarity thought 'Well good luck.' The TARDIS was about to land.

??? ??:00

The eye-patch woman had entered a room. The room looked like a wasteland littered with swords and the sky was littered with gears. The Maestro of Discord was levitating the cell containing Donna Noble. The eye-patch woman said "Is it done?"

The Maestro said "Yeah it's done." he then make several swords levitate and turn into bouquets and the wasteland turn into a volcano. "She had been successfully reprogrammed. all you have to do is apply those eye-whatever and at least she won't die of know too much."

The woman was followed by an old man wearing a cloak. He said "Excellent." He and some other people lifted the cell and exited.

The Maestro said "Who was that?"

The woman said "Prometheus. Head of Olympus Limited's Prometheus Division. Deals with theft, fire, and the transfer of information. Apparently the mental connection between the bearers needs to be strengthened more."

"WHAT!? We should weaken their friendship. That accused bond was the reason th--"

"You are here now, trapped within the body of a dead man now? And didn't you tell me that you were petrified after you tried to break their friendship?"

The Maestro was baffled. He said "Yes but--"

The woman said "Be patient. We are almost ready to execute the final stage of our plan. Their bond will soon be the universe's downfall." She then left he room.

The Maestro was experiencing some headaches. Someone in his head said "Get out of my head."

Kaukasos 9:00 PM 1/11/5167

The TARDIS has landed inside a domed city. The city was bustling with alien life. Everyone spit up to look for the chronosteel. The Doctor took his Tarot deck and timey-wimey detector with him just in case.

Starsong looked to see a clear sky with few clouds. She said "I'm guessing this dome is there to keep air in since there appeared to be no atmosphere." She saw Toola Rool and Cheerilee. She went to then and said "Congrats on getting that weight off your chest."

Toola Roola said "Thanks. Did your singing voice return yet?"

Starsong said "I think so but I haven't practiced in a while. Are you still painting peoples' dreams?"

Toola Roola sighed and said "Yeah."

Cheerilee butted in the conversation and said "Well maybe it'll go away soon."

Toola Roola said "Yeah maybe."

Flitter and Cloudchaser saw the three ponies. Cloudchaser said "I don't get what this dome is for."

Starsong said "I think it's there to keep the air in."

Flitter said "Excuse me?" for she and her sister were confused.

"This planet has no natural atmosphere. or at least one we can breath in normally." Starsong said.

"Therefore if we were outside the dome, we would probably choke or explode." Cheerilee said.

Everypony in this conversation were grossed out by that expatiation. The five ponies went together to explore the place.

Meanwhile the Cutie Mark Crusaders were with Their sisters (or idol in Scootaloo's case) and their friends. Apple Bloom said "Don't you think they've been acting strange lately?"

"Try a little creepy." Scootaloo said. "They been acting like they don't even need to to talk to each other now."

Sweetie Belle said "Maybe they know something we don't?"

The filly with the hail bow said "Like what? How to speak with their minds?"

The orange pegasus filly said. "That's more ridiculous that your claiming that Ponyville will fall in chaos on hearts and hooves day."

The white unicorn filly said "It does seem like it though."

The yellow earth filly said "Alright maybe we can get our cutie marks finding out what's going on with them."

Scootaloo said "That's a great idea." Sweetie Belle agreed with them. The 3 fillies decide to find out what's going on with the bearers of the Elements.

Kaukasos 9:30 AM

The Doctor was searching for the chronosteel with River, Rose, Rory, and Amy. River saw the Doctor's Tarot deck and said "Doctor, why do you have this?"

The Doctor said "Just in case."

River said "You don't really believe in this rubbish, do you?"

"Why not?" The Doctor said. "A little fortunetelling never hurt anyone."

"Starship UK says hi." Amy said.

"Oh come on, those people only looked like they were telling fortunes." The Doctor said.

Rose said "And those Carrionites with Shakespeare in London?"

"How do you know that?" the Doctor said. "I was traveling with Martha then."

Rose said "I had my own time machine. You don't think I can travel back in time looking for the Silence then?"

The Doctor said "Good point." The group of five went looking for the chronosteel.

Meanwhile Twilight, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were exploring the place. Unaware that the Crusaders are following them. They saw someone move toward them and said "Hello."

Twilight said "Um hi?"

The man said "Would you like to be part of an experiment?"

Rarity said "No thanks, were just passing through."

The man said "Well keep this just in case." He handed them a flyer and left. Twilight levitated the flyer and thought 'Well that was weird.'

'You think?' Rainbow Dash thought. the ponies deiced to go back to the TARDIS with the fillies still following them.

Sweetie Belle whispered "You sure we can avoid being caught?"

Scootaloo whispered "I have a ton of experience with this. Don't worry."

Apple Bloom whispered "I'll bet." and rolled her eyes. The three fillies followed their sisters (and idol) back to the TARDIS.

Kaus ♐ The Nanobotic Resonance

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor, River, Rose, Amy, and Rory had returned to the TARDIS. There they saw Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack in the TARDIS. Twilight said "Oh, hello Doctor." and began reading the flyer she obtained earlier.

"Hello." said the Doctor. "What are you reading?"

River and Rose went off somewhere and Amy and Rory went off in another path. Twilight gave the Doctor the flyer. It read:

The Hephaestus Division need volunteers for project AETOS. For details talk to Prometheus... The Doctor kept reading the flyer until his timey-wimey detector went off. He noticed and saw that the flyer was made by someone nor from this time.

"Doctor what going on?" Twilight said.

"Tell your friends to meet me in front of this address." He pointed to the address and went to get the others.

Kaukasos 11:00 AM 1/11/5167

Toola Roola, Cheerilee, Starsong, Flitter and Cloudchaser were walking around the dome city when they saw a museum and observatory. Toola Roola and Cheerilee decided to check out the museum. Starsong and the other two went to check out the observatory. To their surprise they found Lyra and Bonbon in the observatory.

Starsong said "What are you doing here? I've never pegged you an astronomer."

Bonbon said "Neither would I see you as one as well. Lyra was looking telescope to look for more [hands.]"

Starsong said "I just wanted to check out how space affects the weather and climate." Lyra was then seen looking at the telescope. She said she was finished and let Starsong have a peek.

At the museum however. Toola Roola and Cheerilee saw Minty and Ditzy looking at some statue. The exhibit had a "Do not touch" sign on it. Minty said "Hiya." to the other two ponies.

Toola Roola said "So what are you doing?"

Minty said "Well I'm trying to enjoy a little history with my friend."

Ditzy said "Hey look." She then moved an exhibit that said "Oldest Muffin Recipe." Cheerilee and Toola Roola were perplexed.

Later the ponies left the museum and the observatory and saw The others heading for some building. The Doctor met them and explained that they are heading to check out the Hephaestus Division and the group of 22 went there post haste.

The Hephaestus Division 12:00 NOON

The Doctor and his companions have entered a tall building inside the dome. There was a man wearing red in the building. he said "Hello I am Professor Prometheus. Are you here to Partake in project AETOS?"

"I would like to know what this project AETOS is." The Doctor said.

Prometheus said "Ah yes follow me." Prometheus said. He led the group into the building.

Rainbow Dash Looked at the scientist. She saw his blond hair reflect light unnaturally and thought 'I don't know, he feels untrustworthy.'

Rarity thought 'You thought the same of the Doctor.'

Applejack chuckled at that remark. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were keeping an eye on the bearers.

Eventually Prometheus entered a room and said "This is project AETOS." He'd pointed to some pods on the wall and said "Project AETOS is a experiment meant to explain whether or not nanobots cans store enough information and find out some mental abilities."

"Like what?" River said.

"Telekinesis, telepathy, bad dreams, and whatnot." Prometheus said. The red coated scientist received a call ans said "I have to go. Feel free to explore the place as long as you do not break anything."

Rainbow Dash looked at Ditzy and thought 'We'll be out in an hour.'

Applejack thought 'Rainbow!'

Everyone decided to split up to find the chronosteel here.

Prometheus exited the room. He then went to a control room and said to several scientists "Alright, They're looking for the chronosteel now. We go after the ponies right?"

Donna Noble had entered the room. She had an eye-patch on her. She said "Our masters want only six specific ponies hooked up to your project. Do not fail us Prometheus."

"Understood." Prometheus pressed a button and said "Find the herd of ponies with the purple unicorn and release project AETOS: Red Strain."

The computer said "UNDERSTOOD: SCANNING NOW." And started scanning the place.

Donna left the room and met up with the eye-patched lady. She said "Well done Donna Noble."

Donna said "I exist to serve the Silence, Lady Korvarian." The two then left.

The Hephaestus Division 12:15 PM

Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Applejack were looking for the chronosteel. Rainbow Dash thought 'I still think that Prometheus was acting suspiciously to me.'

Twilight thought 'We've only met him a few minutes ago and--'

Pinkie Pie started giggling. Fluttershy thought 'Um what so funny?'

Pinkie thought 'Oh nothing, I just saw Dashie in a frilly dress is was so funny.'

Rarity thought 'You saw what?' feeling slightly embarrassed.

Rainbow Dash thought 'WHAT?' then glared at Rarity.

Applejack thought 'All right, y'all calm down please.'

Rainbow Dash did calm down a bit.

Rarity thought 'How did Pinkie even know? I wasn't even think about that seeing Rainbow in that dress now, Although she would look rather dashing.'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Rarity.' before the white unicorn realized that she and her friends still telepathic. Everypony dropped the subject and continued looking for the chronosteel unaware that some red goop was leaking through the walls...

The Hephaestus Division 12:20 PM

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are still following the bearers from a distance. Sweetie belle said "I don't get why you'd think there's something wrong with them."

Apple Bloom said "When's the last time you saw Pinkie Pie go this long without talking?"

The white filly said "Oh."

Scootaloo said "Do you think we should get closer?"

The white unicorn filly said "I don't know they could already--"

"Know you were following us?"

The fillies were noticed by Rainbow Dash and the other 5 ponies. She said "What are you doing here?"

Apple Bloom said "Um well--"

Sweetie said "Well you are acting strange."

Rarity said "Strange how?" Try to skirt the issue.

Applejack said "Ah think Ah know what they're talking 'bout." She then looked at Twilight.

The purple unicorn said "Well how can I put this. Um see..."

Pinkie Pie said "Oh I know. We're telepathic, been having nightmares for a few weeks, we don't know why that is, and Do you guys smell coke. I absolutely love cake.."

The fillies were a little confused. Scootaloo whispered "Told you they were acting strange." The other two fillies were a little distraught.

Sweetie Belle noticed something red oozing out of the walls. She said "Um guys?" Everypony looked at the walls and saw red ooze come out the walls. They saw that the walls behind them have been covered with the substance and decided to run away form it.

Sadira ♐ Counterattack

The Hephaestus Division 12:40 PM 1/11/5167

The Doctor's group was checking around the building for the chronosteel. Rory saw some notes on a nearby table. He said "This is odd."

"What's odd?" Amy said.

"Prometheus was the only one we've ever seen in this place." Rory began reading the paper. He saw notes on the Cybermen as well as various other technology. The Doctor was searching around a desk he saw something that said "AETOS research notes." He began reading the notes and found out something horrible. He said "River, Rose, worn the others quick."

"Why?" River said.

"I think there's more here than meets the eye." The Doctor said. He showed them the the papers and afterwards they left. He, Rory an Amy did like wise.

The Hephaestus Division 1:00 PM

Toola Roola, Starsong, Cheerilee, Flitter and Cloudchaser were in another room. Starsong was practicing her notes quietly.

"Do, Re, Me, Fa, So, La, Do, Do." She was still practicing.

"Are you alright?" Cheerilee said.

"I'm fine." Starsong said "Just practicing."

The other thee ponies noticed. They saw a hallway with the walls cover in red sludge. Flitter said "You think the chronosteel might be in there?"

Toola Roola saw something move in the red. She said "I think we should move on."

Everypony else saw the red goop move as well. They decided to move away from the red stuff until...

The red stuff moved after the ponies. They trotted as fast as they could but the red ooze moved 3 times faster. They are chasing the ponies in around the halls. Eventually they were at a dead end. The crimson ooze had trapped them and were ready to engulf the group until...

Rose Tyler had fired at the ooze several times and carved a pathway to help the ponies escape. The group managed to evade the sludge made of nanobots and the blob decided to to go. Leaving several holes everywhere.

The group thanked Rose for helping them with the slime. She then explained what she knows and the group went to find the others.

The Hephaestus Division 1:15 PM

River Song was looking for the others to warn them of the nanites. She searched for any signs of their presence. Eventually from behind a window she saw Lyra, Bonbon, Minty and Ditzy being surrounded by the red nanites. She tried to get to them but there was no door. River shot the window but the blast bounced off. The red ooze had coated the scared ponies and they were cocooned by the nanites. The sludge pulled the cocoons out into a different room.

River took out her communicator and said "Doctor we may have a problem."

Meanwhile, The Doctor, Amy and Rory were searching for the others. He spoke over the communicator "River try to follow them." as they were passing some buttons next to every gate.

River said "Ok sweetie." she then hung up. The Doctor's group saw something pink in the distance and behind several open doors. He used his screwdriver like a telescope and saw that Twilight's group was inside a barrier... and galloping away from the nanites.

Twilight was also trying to blast the nanites away bit the would rewarm after the blast ht and double in size. The Doctor went to help them only to find the the 9 ponies were surrounded. Amy and Rory shot the red ooze with their blasters but they were having no luck as well.

Twilight decided to use her teleport spell on the other ponies in the hope that that would help evade the nanites. The barrier and the ponies inside disappeared. The the ponies out of the nanites clutches the Doctor pressed a nearby button and the gate closed.

Twilight's group have reappeared back on the other side of the now sealed gate, albeit a little singed by her spell.

'Warn us next time you're were gonna do that.' Rainbow Dash thought.

'I didn't know that was gonna happen.' Twilight thought. She saw the Doctor with Amy and Rory and said "Doctor."

"I take it teleportation was only meant for one pony?" The Doctor said. Ho looked and see the crimson ooze in the cracks of the doors and said "That's not going to hold them long."

Twilight said "What are they?"

Amy said "My guess something to avoid."

The group decided to find Prometheus and ask him what is going on here.

The Hephaestus Division 1:30 PM

The Doctor's group were looking for Prometheus. On the way the ponies were taking with each other.

Rarity thought 'I can't believe that someone thought red would be a good choice for these awful nanobots. Why would they chose a color that looks like blood?'

Applejack thought 'Maybe they thought it would make them go faster?'

Pinkie Pie thought 'Maybe they wanted to stick out form the white floors and white walls.'

Twilight thought 'What are they even here for?' The mares continued their psychic conversation unaware that the fillies are being a little creeped out.

Meanwhile in another part of the building, River Song was tracking the red cocoons down. She eventually saw a giant room, blood-red and pulsing. The cocoons with the ponies that were captured by the nanobots were mounted in the center. At the top of the room was a robot made of Nanobots and hooked up to some computers as well as some urns. The machine looked like a woman upside down and appeared to be feeding nanobots to the cocoons. River could see the ponies struggling to get out.

The cocoons started to shrink and change color, there she saw that they now looked like metallic versions of the ponies that were trapped inside. River took out her communicator and said "Doctor you might want to be careful." River saw something on top of the robot. It was some chronosteel mounted to a crown of sorts. One piece of it was a deep azure and had the sign and constellation for Sagittarius. The others had the constellations for Scutum, Indus, Microscopium, Sagitta, Corona Borealis, Coma Berenices and Delphinus. The metallic ponies looked up to the platform where River was but she ran away to warn the Doctor. These metal ponies exited the room.

The Hepheastus Division 2:00 PM

River Song had found The Doctor's group and explained what happened.

"Wait you mean the chronosteel is in the swarm of nanobots?" The Doctor said.

"And that they already got to Lyra and Bonbon?" Pinkie said.

"And Ditzy and who ever that other green pony was." Rarity said.

'Minty.' Pinkie thought.

'Thank you.' Rarity thought.

Rose's group had found the Doctor's group. Rose said "I think that whoever made these things are after something."

"Or someone." The Doctor said looking at Twilight and her friends. "We're gonna have to be careful now." The group agreed.

"We'll need to watch out for the nanites and Lyra, Bonbon, Minty, Ditzy." River said. Everyone then started looking for answers.

Meanwhile in the red room with the robot Prometheus walked in and saw the metallic ponies. He said "Well not the ponies My employers are looking for huh." He put on a more serious tone and said "Fine and assimilate the other ponies and bring them to me. We'll need their brains for the Silence."

The four metal ponies started to exit the room. The actual ponies withing struggling to escape their Nanobot-infused shells. Unable to so much as scream with a command to do so and feeling something invading their minds.

Lucida ♐ Birth of a Legion

The Hephaestus Division 2:10 PM 1/11/5167

The group was looking for Prometheus. The Doctor was was checking for any nanobots. They had went at a fork in the hallways. However both paths were coated in red ooze.

"Well I'd say that's a dead end." The Doctor said.

"Shame if only we could repel them somehow." River Song said. The group turned around and left before any of the nanobots would notice them. Starsong noticed two urns and thought they were nice. But she decided to stick with Cheerilee and Toola Roola who were taking care of the fillies with Flitter and Cloudchaser.

Twilight Sparkle was thinking about those nanobots. She thought 'How are we gonna get through this mess?'

Pinkie Pie thought 'Maybe you could use a force-field spell?'

Rainbow Dash thought 'What if Twilight gets a headache from the spell?'

Fluttershy thought 'Maybe we can--' She noticed some red goo from the ceiling. 'Um guys?'

Pinkie didn't notice her tail was twitching. Applejack thought 'Maybe you can teleport around this place and find some answers Twi?'

Twilight thought 'I don't know.'

'Guys?' Fluttershy thought still looking at the very high ceiling.

Rarity thought 'Well we could try to ask the Doctor about these.'

Fluttershy saw the red ooze move on the ceiling. She went to the Doctor and pointed her hoof up. By that point Pinkie noticed her tail's twitching. Everyone looked up to see the red nanobots hanging over them. The Doctor told everyone to run away from the ooze. As the red slime descended on the group. They barely managed to avoid the nanites as they hit the ground. River and Rose were firing their blasters attempting to distract the ooze and then ran with the others.

Eventually they passed another gateway. most of the group had gotten to the other side of the door. But the fillies as well as Flitter and Cloudchaser were trapped by the nanites who closed the door on them after the others went through. The Doctor and Twilight tried to get the gate open but it was too late. The red goo had got the twins pegasi and the fillies. The red nanobots retreated with their new cocoons.

The Doctor was cross with himself. Applejack and Rarity were saddened for the loss of their sisters and Starsong had lost some of the friends she had made. At this point Twilight decided to cast a barrier spell again. She cast the spell over the group.

The Doctor said "We'll need to be careful. Prometheus will have to wait." The group decided to save the others and perhaps get the chronosteel there while their at it.

The Hephaestus Division 2:15 PM

Prometheus was waiting inside the blood red room. The saw five cocoons and said "Ah AETOS, you've returned again." He had a microphone in his mask. He took a look at some of the monitors while the red nanobots placed the 5 cocoons on the metal pillar. He saw the Doctor's group under a pink force field and said "They're luckier then I thought. But still not lucky" as he looked at the ponies trying to move in the cocoons.

The first four metallic ponies have returned and Prometheus said "Ah welcome back I see you've didn't succeed yet. No matter." He went to tweak the AI and the cocoons began shrinking faster and already began to transform into metallic versions of it's prisoners. He then said "Guard the entrance. They're coming for you and the chronosteel." as he looked ta the glowing metal spheres atop the AI. "I care not for the Time Lord and the humans now but my employers want the ponies and specifically the white and purple unicorns, the blue and yellow pegasi, and the orange and pink ponies. Got it?" The 9 metallic ponies lined up and nodded their heads and left.

Prometheus said "Good."

The Hephaestus Division 2:25 PM

The Doctor's group under the protection of Twilight's spell had entered the hallway infested with red goo. Starsong was still practicing her singing. Oddly enough The nanites below her area of the barrier behaved differently. Toola Roola went to her and said "Do you think Cheerilee's alright?"

The multicolored maned unicorn and the violet pegasus looked at the plum earth pony and saw her depression. Starsong said "i don't think so."

"Do you think it's because she lost the rest of her students?" Toola Roola said.

"Possibly. We should cheer her up." Starsong said, completely unaware of the irony hoe statement has. The two ponies went to cheer up her friend.

Meanwhile The Doctor looked at Applejack and Rarity, seeing their depression. He knew what it's like to lose someone you love. He'd been thought that scenario before. He knew what it was like to lose your entire family as well. River went to him and said "Well this is interesting."

The Doctor said "hat are you talking about.

River said "The nanites, they seem to be sensitive to sound."

The Doctor said "Really?"

River pointed to Starsong who was singing to Cheerilee and notes the bare patch below the pegasus. The Doctor took out his sonic screwdriver and used it on the nanobots. Wherever the screwdriver pointed the nanites would move somewhere else. He tried a different frequency and pitch but the nanites refused to move away then.

The Doctor said "They seem to be respond only to specific sonic frequencies." He went to Pose and said "Rose do you have that thing from the dream."

Rose realized that she had put her voice disguiser in he pocket after she was done with it. She handed it to the Doctor who tinkered with it using the sonic screwdriver. and said "Thanks." he attached the device to his screwdriver and activated it. The nanites then backed up a foot away from the barrier.

The Doctor went and asked Twilight to life the barrier spell. She did so and was relived. The nanites didn't attack.

Rainbow Dash said "What is going on?"

The Doctor said "These nanites appear to hate certain sounds."

Rainbow Dash was a little confused but paid it no mind. She saw that Twilight was a little tired from the spell. She thought 'Are you okay?'

Twilight thought 'I'm fine just a little tired.'

Rarity thought 'Please be careful, You haven't used that spell often.'

Twilight panted a little bit and sat down. The sound from the Doctor's screwdriver was enough to repel the nanites away from the hallway. The group could see some holes on the walls and ceiling.

Upon the nanites' retreat Starsong had stopped her singing and noticed that Cheerilee was feeling a little better. The now student-less teacher said "Thanks."

The violet pegasus then wondered if her singing had something to do with the nanites. After a moment the group moved forward hoping to find the other and the chronosteel. Unaware of 3 pairs of eyes following them from the shadows.

The Hephaestus Division 2:40 PM

The Doctor's group had found themselves on another fork when they saw a shadow in the distance. They saw the figure move closer and the nanites surrounding it. The figure flew closer to the group. Rainbow Dash saw two more shadowy figures on ether side and two more above them. Then Rarity and Applejack saw three smaller figures behind them. Another figure had emerged from the first shadow.

"Doctor what's going on?" Twilight said.

The figures moved closer to the group eventually blocking all bout one pathway. The doctor could see streaks of crimson on the shadowy figures hooves and backs. As the figures' eyes have a cold calculating feel. Eventually the group could see that the figures were the ponies that were trapped in the nanobotic cocoons and The Doctor said "Trouble."

A hologram had appeared to their side and said "So Doctor how do you like my customized AETOS? their 3 times faster and smarter then the grey variant you saw earlier no?"

The Doctor said "What do you want Prometheus?"

The masked hologram said "The ponies of course. And I dare say I think I already have more then you."

The metallic ponies had surrounded the Doctor's group Applejack and Rarity were distract by what happened to their sisters and the other victims.

Rose said "What did you do to them?"

The hologram of Prometheus said "I just covered them with the AETOS of course. Oh don't worry all the nanobots did was place them in a robotic shell. Nothing more." He then muses "Quite an impressive feat considering that they were made from Cyberman science."

The Doctor was now cross at Prometheus. River pointed her blaster at the hologram and said "You better give me one good reason why I don't just shoot you right now."

Prometheus said "Apart from being a hologram? How about me being the only one in here that can control the nanobots? I can change them back to normal if you meet my demands."

"Why I ought to--" Rainbow Dash was ready to charge the hologram when Applejack tried to hold her back.

The metal ponies had stopped and Prometheus said "Bring the rest of the ponies to this location and I'll turn them back to normal and hand you the chronosteel. Or else know that if you refuse Olympus Limited will have some new test subjects. Ta-Ta." the hologram disappeared and the metallic ponies had left. The hologram left a map on the ground which the Doctor picked up.

The Doctor was now saddened. Amy and Rory looked at the distraught ponies. Rose Tyler and River Song saw the Doctor's expression. What will the group do knowing that their enemies had made hostages into weapons. In the end They decided to head forward to confront Prometheus.

Polis ♐ Cyber-Conversion

The Hephaestus Division 3:00 PM 1/11/5167

The Doctor's group had dwindled. The Doctor, Amy, Rory, River, Rose, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, Cheerilee, Toola Roola and Starsong are ready to confront Prometheus.

Twilight noticed Applejack and Rarity's sad faces and thought 'Don't worry. We'll get them back.'

Applejack thought 'Are you sure Twi?'

Rarity thought 'It's not like we've suffered worse.' and chuckled nervously.

Applejack thought 'Ah guess. But still what are we going to do when we get there?'

Pinkie Pie thought 'Maybe he'll let them go after we make him a cake?'

'Pinkie that's ridiculous.' Rainbow Dash thought.

Fluttershy thought 'I just hope they're alright. I can't even begin to think of what they're going through right now.'

Rarity and Applejack sighed a little bit and they continued onward.

The Doctor's group had seen the path lead into a hallway infested with nanites. The Doctor tried his sonic screwdriver but they wouldn't budge. He said "We're getting close."

He then looked at Twilight who then cast a barrier over the group and they entered the hallway.

??? ??:00

The Maestro of Discord was walking out. Madame Korvarian and Donna Noble looked at him and the former said "What are you doing?"

The Maestro said "I'm going to see how Prometheus is doing, nothing more" he lied in the Master's voice. He was feeling jealous that someone was gonna off the Doctor instead of him.

Korvarian said "You know the Silence won't allow you to intervene in their plans."

"Good thing I don't need those stinking eye-patches to see them." The maestro said . "Besides They only said that they wanted the ponies' minds. They never said anything about the Doctor. Ta-Ta." The maestro winked away from them.

Donna Noble said "Who was that guy?"

Korvarian said "A attempt at reviving the Master gone horrible wrong."

Donna said "Where did it go wrong?"

Korvarian sneered "It was too successful." Like The Maestro she too had a thirst for revenge. revenge against the assassin that betrayed and the mother that killed her. But more importantly of the Time Lord that brought the mother and the father together after he fell trough the cracks of time.

"I've made sure what happened in that aborted time line won't happen to me this time." she said. She then looked at Donna saw her struggling to break her brainwashing to no avail. She said "You, go with him and bring us the research notes and anything else of importance." Donna then left the area.

The Hephaestus Division 3:30 PM

The Doctor's group had entered the red room River Song had seen earlier. Starsong noticed two urns on a ledge with the AI below. The Doctor and Rory picked up two swords at the entrance while River, Amy, and Rose took their blasters out. They saw the chronosteel on the crown of the AI.

The Doctor said "Prometheus. Show yourself!"

A voice came form the AI. It said "Oh Doctor so you came to discuss my terms after all?" Prometheus was cackling evilly as he emerged form the top of the AI. He had a sword in his hands and 4 metallic tentacles, each one wielding it's own sword. The metallic ponies emerged from the shadows until they surrounded the group. He said "Hand over the ponies and I'll cure them."

Rainbow Dash said "And if we refuse?"

Applejack whispered "Rainbow."

Prometheus said "I haven't thought of that." he snapped his fingers and the gate closed. "In fact I was hoping you would say that. Because I will take you and the other ponies anyway!" He activated the device on his mask and said "Convert the ponies. Kill the rest."

The AETOS nanites were still repelled by Twilight's barrier. However she was tired from casting 3 successive force field spells and wasn't sure if she can keep it up any longer. Prometheus noticed this and commanded the nanites to stop. He said "Ah, a force field. Can't believe I didn't notice that. Well it seem that the barrier will break in a few minuets. Enough time for a few last words. Perhaps a few questions, huh?"

Pinkie then said "Okay. Are these nanites made of icing?"

Rainbow Dash placed her hoof on her face. Prometheus was a little surprised by the question. He jumped off the AI and said "No they are made from scrap metal from a fallen cyber-legion. Any other questions?"

Twilight's spell was growing fainter. Starsong noticed something on the urns. The Doctor said "Why are you so interested in the ponies?"

Prometheus said "Well My superiors at Olympus Limited had told me about a fallen world with strange inhabitants unlike anything we have ever seen in this dimension and I already know all there is to know about the Time Lords. I wish to study them get inside their heads so to speak."

Everyone's then took their attention to the metal ponies. They saw that their eyes were filled with regret, sorrow and fear. Prometheus said "It looks like you had enough time for one last question." as he stepped closer to the group.

Twilight was about to fall unconscious. River Song said "What's Olympus Limited's connection to the Silence?"

Prometheus said "Well I honestly don't know. They're a rather secretive bunch that Silence. I think Max Zeus would answer your question. Not that you would live long enough to meet him."

Twilight had just collapsed on the ground, unconscious. Prometheus said "Now that I think about it I heard Time Lord blood is very valuable here. I would love to be the one who get's to spill the blood of the last Time Lord." He activated the device on his mask and said "Take the ponies. Leave the Time Lord and humans to me."

By that point the AETOS and the metallic ponies had began the fight. The nanites had took Twilight and Fluttershy. With Rainbow Dash and Starsong flying to evade them and the other ponies either fighting them or defend each other. The Doctor and Rory were battling Prometheus while Amy, Rose and River were shooting at the nanites.

Starsong had landed near the urns and began singing hoping that it would repel the nanites. The nanites stopped and moved away form the pegasus but as she was out of practice and can't keep singing for few minuets. By that point Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Toola Roola and Cheerilee were over taken and converted by the nanites. Applejack and Rainbow Dash fared the hardest however they too were covered in the nanites leaving Starsong as the only pony left on the Doctor's side.

Meanwhile outside the room. the Maestro was struggling to walk in the hallway. He said in Discord's voice "Ah come on. If you're gonna be my host you could at least stay back and watch the show."

He switched back to the master's voice and said "Not today. I have a score to settle with the Doctor and I'm not gonna let anybody else take that away from me."

The Discord voice returned and deadpanned "Aw and here I thought you had something with the Doctor there. Or perhaps your still do."

The Master half said "Shut Up!" He regained control of the body and began to move toward the room where the Doctor and Prometheus were battling.

The Hephaestus Division 4:00 PM

The Doctor and Rory were still fighting Prometheus with Amy, Rose, River, and Starsong defending themselves from the metallic ponies and the nanites. However some of the metal ponies appeared in front of Starsong. The violet pegasus stepped back and stopped singing. She was struggling to break free of the nanites. But they had cocooned her. The cocoon knocked over both urns in the process before overtaking her. The liquid inside the urns spilled and poured on the AI.

The metallic ponies and the nanites stopped moving. Prometheus was shocked long enough for Rory to cut off two of his tentacles. The girls pointed their guns at Prometheus as the Doctor disabled the other two tentacles and grabbed Prometheus.

The Doctor said "Now let my friends go!" as he pointed his sword at the madman.

Prometheus begun to cackle. He said "You think that I would have a way to reverse something like this? All because I that I can remove he AETOS from them?"

"What?" The Doctor said.

Prometheus was about to move his sword. Rory noticed this and tried to stop the attack getting cut in the process. Prometheus was separated from the Doctor as Amy went to check if her husband's okay.

The Doctor said "Why would you do something like this." to Prometheus. As he help Rory tend to his wound.

"He wasn't going to help you in the first place."

The gates transformed into paper as the Maestro of Discord cut his way into the room.

River and Rose pointed their gun at the Maestro and Rose said "What the hell are you doing here?"

The Maestro said "Forgotten the possibility that I survived what had happened back on earth" He looked at the Doctor and said "Guess not."

"Answer the question!" The Doctor said.

The Maestro said "Which one, Doctor Who?" The group's patience was wearing thin. He said "Oh right the other question." He moved toward the Doctor and Prometheus moving the nanites as he moved along. He said "Can't a guy play [Deus ex Machina] without people questing his motives?" He levitated Prometheus and pinned him to the wall while removing the nanites from everywhere, including the ponies who then fell unconscious afterwards. "No, good."

The Maestro turned to Prometheus and said "Let's get one thing straight. If anyone's gonna kill the Doctor. It's going to be me!"

Prometheus was feeling scared. He said "What are you gonna do to me?"

The Maestro said "Like I'm gonna let you live, so that you can try and take my Doctor away from em. I. DON'T. THINK!" Everyone saw what the Maestro was about to do. the doctor tried to stop him but it was to late. The Maestro took the nanites and attacked Prometheus with them. The AETOS nanobots attacked him nearby the hips and engulfed as he screamed until Prometheus was nothing but bone.

When the Maestro was done he saw River and Rose aim at the Maestro. And the Doctor glaring at him. The Maestro said "Typical. You always looked down on my methods." He then vanished as the other ponies woke up. They wondered what had happened to them and saw Rory's wound. Most of them were scared of the gash and stayed away from the wounded centurion. The Doctor took the chronosteel from the top of the short-circuited AI.

Twilight and the other bearers thought about what happened, what they had done while being controlled by the nanites. Applejack and rarity were happy to see their sisters safe after all this. The group went back to the TARDIS to tend to Rory's cut and take the chronosteel back.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor went to the dwarf-star alloyed room and let go of the chronosteel. The sign for Sagittarius (♐) was glowing a deep Azure glow as the chronosteel took it's place on the spherical room. The Antikythera Mechanism now pointed at Capricorn (♑). The Doctor saw Twilight and the other bearers inside the room with him.

The purple unicorn said "How many chronosteel is left?"

The Doctor said "Well there was 88 to start with. We have 67 now. so that leaves about 21 left."

Twilight said "Thanks." as they left the room. The Doctor was left alone to curse himself for being unable to save them. Late every companion he has traveled with since the Time War had something terrible happen to them and deep down The Doctor knew that one way of another it was his fault. He took a look at the Tarot deck Cassandra and saw that the front card was not the Hanged Man like last time. The card depicted someone lying down, stabbed in the back by 10 swords on a desert wasteland. there were even more swords poking the ground with the sky littered by gears for some reason. the upper right corner had a 10 on it.

The Doctor decided to examine the Antikythera mechanism and pray for the sake of his companions that the last of the chronosteel would be there.

Meanwhile the ponies were still recovering from their traumatic experience. Twilight thought 'First the nightmares now this. What's next?'

Applejack and the other comforted her and thought 'It's alright sugarcube. We'll get trough this.'

'I hope so Applejack.' Twilight thought 'I hope so.' The bearers didn't realize that their mental connection had significantly grown since they were freed and went to another room of the TARDIS.

The Hephaestus Division 8:00 PM

Long after the TARDIS had left Donna Noble went to where the Doctor and the Maestro confronted Prometheus. She was followed by some Silents with Trixie trapped in another machine.

She examined the waterlogged AI and saw some cards. They were transparent and had pictures of the ponies that were covered by the AETOS nanobots. She took them and spoke into a communication device. "This is Donna Noble. It appeared that the AETOS was successful at coping the minds of the ponies before it short-circuited."

"And Prometheus?" Korvarian said.

Donna noble looked at the mad scientist's skeleton surrounded by several blood red nanobots. She said "He's dead."

Korvarian said "Fine bring the copies back with the research on the AETOS."

Donna said "Rodger." She disappeared and the Silents activated the new machine. Trixie was in deeper pain then ever before as she screamed even more then before. Her horn glowed brighter then before as well as a bright light engulfed Kaukasos. The planet was made still. Silence had fallen on the planet. A Silent went back to recover Trixie and their machine

??? ??:00

Kovarian went to meet with Max Zeus again. This time Hades and Athena were spying on them.

A cloaked man with brown hair and white skin went to Korvarian. He said "Sorry I wasn't able to attend the last few meetings with you. Thing were a little busy."

Korvarian said "Never mind. I assume Your wife gave you the news of our developments Max Zeus?"

Max said "Yes Hera dis tell me about what happened up 'til now. The resseraction gate is almost finished and 90of 108 planets have been stopped in time and moved to the Medusa Cascade"

Koevarian said "Good."

Athena whispered "What, the Medusa Cascade?"

"Yes." Hades whispered "As in the gorgon your namesake embedded to her shield."

"I know about that." Athena whispered. "Quiet."

Max said "Soon the Time war will begin anew and The Doctor will never reach Trenzalore."

Korvarian said "And you will remake the universe in your own image."

Max said "Excellent." The two people then went their own separate ways. Max Zeus noticed something behind the pillars and said "Guard bring me Hades and his collaborators. I'll be in my office."

Hades and Athena were shocked. Several security guards had then descended on the two Olympians and captured them.

Algiedi ♑ Scars of the Quest

??? ??:00

The Doctor found himself in a almost empty field. He looked above and saw a sword suspended by two horse hairs over his head. He noticed that there were 4 other strands of hair attached by the pommel but unlike the purple and orange hairs there were severed.

The human avatar of the TARDIS had appeared and said "Do you know what the sword is?"

The Doctor looked at the TARDIS and said "Of course. one time there was a king who placed one of his courtiers on the throne after he commented on how easy he had it. The tyrant held a sword over the the courtier's head suspended by a single horse hair."

The TARDIS said "And thus the Sword of Damocles was created. Tell me my thief..." The 7 of swords had appeared in her hand. "...Do you know why those 6 ponies were able to forge a mental link with one another?"

The Doctor was a little silent for a moment. The TARDIS said "I'm sure you already know this but these 6 have been best friends for quite a while." The Doctor can see images of the bearers of the Elements of Harmony. The one Tarot card changed to 7 and laid themselves on a table. They were the High Priestess, The King of Wands, The Chariot, The 6 of Pentacles, The Strength, and the Queen of Wands. Each card depicted one of the bearers. The card in the center was the 10 of cups.

The TARDIS said "Their friendship was the reason their world was saved many times. But in this one their camaraderie and solidarity will in the wrong hands proved to be the downfall of the universe."

"What are you saying?" The Doctor said. Storm clouds were overhead.

"A storm is coming. Another Harmony will return. And both harmonies will cash and bring forth it's destruction. Be careful Doctor, you must know what happens if the sword falls."

The Doctor looked back at the Sword of Damocles and saw everything but him and the sword vanish.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had woken up. He noticed that he never went to bed and that he was still studying the coordinates. The holographic timeline narrowed the time down to the year 6111. He said "Well this should be easy." The TARDIS began to scan for the chronosteel while the Doctor looked at his Tarot deck.

The Doctor shuffled his card and took out the top four afterwards. The first card was the Moon. The next card depicted a man ling in a coffin with 3 swords pointed at him form below and one above and a 4 on the upper right, however the card was upside down. The next card was the 10 of Swords and the final card was the Devil.

The Doctor examined the spread and saw that the TARDIS had finished scanning. He saw a planet with a resort on it. He deiced to check on the others before leaving for the planet.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor first went to see how Rory's doing. They saw him with his wife tending to his wound. He had a bandage around his arm. River Song also entered the medical room.

The Doctor said "How are you doing?"

"I'm fine. At least it didn't kill me." Rory joked. Amy was not amused.

River said "That wound might heal but I'm not sure if it'll be the only one of not."

The Doctor wen to check on the ponies stating that Rory will be okay. By that point Rose had entered the room.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor saw Twilight Sparkle in the library. He said "So how are your friends?"

The purple unicorn said "Well Pinkie Pie and the others seem to be alright. but the Cutie mark Crusaders are having trouble speaking to anypony but their sisters, Rainbow Dash and each other."

"I see." said the Doctor. Although he was not entirely sure about pony psychology he know that the events back at the Hephaestus Division were too traumatic for only three fillies being dumbstruck especially consing their reaction to the blood from Rory's wound. He went back to the control room to pilot the TARDIS.

Later Twilight went back to see her friends. She found them and thought 'Are you sure that everypony's okay?'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Or course we're okay. What makes you think we're not?'

'Might have something to do with those nano-matronics' Applejack thought.

'What about Lyra and Bonbon and Ditzy and Minty?' Fluttershy thought. 'They were the ones that were taken over by the nanites first.'

'I've checked. They appeared to be fine so far. And so are Cheerilee and the others.' Twilight thought.

Rarity thought 'So we only have 21 pieces of chronosteel to go?'

Pinkie Pie thought 'I wonder what would happen if we do collect the all.'

'Hopefully the Doctor will find a way to change them back.' Twilight thought. The group continued their psychic conversation.

Meanwhile Lyra and Bonbon were talking to each other. Lyra said "Are you sure that you want to go out next time?"

Bonbon said "Of course I'm sure. I;'m not gonna let being controlled by a bunch of goop stop me form exploring the universe. What about you? I thought you wanted to see the humans and other species with hands!"

The green unicorn said "I do. It's just tha--"

Bonbon said "[You're worried for my safety.] I get it. But I can handle myself just fine."

"Well if you insist." Lyra said.

Minty and Ditzy were watching the couple and putting socks on their hooves. The green earth pony said "I never thought I would see Bonbon act all thought with Lyra acting well..."

Ditzy said "Well that does seem unusual. Maybe we should see what's going on." The grey pegasus took a step forward and slipped on a sock and slid into the group.

The pile of ponies were a little confused by this moment.

Meanwhile Toola Roola was painting in her room when Cheerilee came in. The multicolored-maned unicorn was painting again and said "Any luck?"

Cheerilee said "Not yet. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo still won't talk to me. I think they're still traumatized from being you know..." She then sighed.

Toola Roola also sighed but for a different reason. Although she had lifted the wight form her shoulders she still finds herself unable to paint anything but dreams. The easel she was painted on was a third blank and depicted rainbow dash struck by lightning, Rarity as a glass statue, Pinkie Pie dissolving in the ocean, and Fluttershy trapped in a tornado with cheery blossoms. She said "How's Starsong doing?"

"Well she doing as well as the rest of us but I'm not sure how well that is. She's now talking to Flitter and Cloudchaser."

"I see." said Toola Roola. She stopped painting and both ponies left to check on her.

The TARDIS was gonna land in a few hours.

Sirenos 12:07 PM 2/02/6111

The TARDIS had landed on the resort planet of Sirinos. The Doctor was sure to take his timey-wimey detector with him along with his sonic screwdriver. The Doctor said "Welcome to Sirenos. Perfect place for a break huh?"

Everyone was a little baffled. River said "Doctor what in the name of sanity are you thinking?" Everyone knew that the chronosteel would destroy all universes if separated fort too long and they were separate to begin with.

The Doctor said "Well I'd thought we'd take a small break. You never know what you may find on vacation."

River deadpanned "I can guess." Remembering how their last vacation went. Regardless she realized the ponies traumatic experience and her father's wound and decided to see where this goes. Everyone decided that some rest was well needed and went to check out the resort.

??? ??:00

Hades, Athena, Hermes, and Aphrodite were taken to Max Zeus' throne. They were bound by rope. His porcelain skin had an expression of anger and a look of disappointment. Max Zeus said "Why did you spy on my secret meetings Hades?"

Hades said "Why do you even have secret meeting in the first place Max?" He took out a razor and began cutting his rope.

"That's none of your business." Max said.

"You sure?" Athena said "Because I think you're hiding something. You buy out planets and install figureheads in place of an actual government. Why?"

Max said "You should know why. You attended some of our meetings and last I check Hermes sent the messages."

Hades said "This company was a conspiracy and we were kept out of the loop, but your figureheads were kept in. What is your goal?"

"Oh you'll find out soon Hades. You already know too much as it is." Max said.

"Yeah I will, but not on your bloody terms." he broke his bonds and freed the others and they escaped. Max Zeus was mad. he asked his guards to find them.

Later they found a platform and entered it as well as some chronosteel. Hades took the chronosteel and set the coordinates. Aphrodite said "What are you doing?"

Hades said "We have to warn the others. I know that whatever Max is planning it has to do with The Doctor and the Silence. Hermes find someone the Doctor can trust. We'll find the Doctor."

"Okay." said Aphrodite. They disappeared in beams of light as Max's security barged in the room. Max was clearly mad. He said "Bring the Silence here." The security guard left the room to call for the Silence.

Scheddi ♑ A Little Break

Sirenos 12:30 PM 2/02/6111

The Doctor and his companions have made a reservation for the nearby hotel and resort. After paying for the stay in advance The Doctor and his companions went ahead to enjoy the break ... and get their mind off what happened to the ponies.

A while later Rose found Flitter and Cloudchaser talking to Starsong and Toola Roola. The blond formally cloaked woman went to see what they were doing.

Flitter saw Rose and said "Hello Siri-- I mean Rose" She haven't talked to the ponies that were traveling with her since they joined the Doctor's group.

"Hi." Rose said.

Starsong said "So you were the mysterious person everypony was talking about in Ponyville?" She already knew this but wanted to be sure.

"Huh, well I guess." Rose said.

Starsong said "Just checking." She looked at the sky and said "These stratus clouds look nice huh?"

The group of five went to continue their discussion.

Meanwhile Rarity took her friends to a nearby spa to see how different their relaxation methods are. She thought 'I haven't been able to relax like this since we started traveling with the Doctor. It's nice to be able to relax after a while.' She had a cucumber facial on her face. Several aliens were trimming her hoofs. Fluttershy was getting a similar treatment but with less paste and Applejack was seen eating some of the cucumbers. Pinkie was getting her hair dried.

Rainbow Dash and Twilight were the only mares not to in a nearby sauna. rainbow dash thought 'Yeah Rarity it's nice, so long as no one touches my hooves.'

Pinkie thought 'Are you still on that Dashie?' as she and Fluttershy entered the sauna. The steam was getting thicker and thicker.

'Never mind that. Any way why did he decide to take us here in the first place?' Rainbow Dash thought. rarity and Applejack then entered the sauna as well.

Twilight thought 'Well The Doctor said that a meteor with some chronosteel will pass by soon so he brought us here to relax.'

Rainbow Dash had seen Twilight's point. They needed a vacation after what happened at the Hephaestus Division. They continued their short break.

Sirenos 12:45 PM

The Doctor and River went to a restaurant for lunch. He made the order under his usual "John Smith" alias.

River said "Haven't seen you paid so much money since our date."

The Doctor said "It was...convenient." Their food had arrived with a fez. River groaned at the sight of that hat. She thought 'That hat will haunt me will it?'

The Doctor said "Besides the chronosteel won't come until tonight.. We may as well use the time to relax."

"I guess." River said. "I just thought the chronosteel would land near the Singing Towers of Darillium. You'd been promising me a visit there for ages and you still haven't followed through on it."

The Doctor was solemn for a moment. he knew what would happen to her after their future date at the towers. After a while They paid the bill and left the restaurant. They passed a cage with a crimson goat-like beast.

??? ??:00

The Maestro of Discord has returned. Korvarian was not amused. She said "So how was you [Deus ex Machina?]"

The Maestro said "Bug off, I was not about to let him kill my Doctor before I could get a shot." in the Master's voice.

The Maestro swapped to Discord's voice and said "I think he had a little crush on the Doctor if you ask me." Before switching back and yelling "SHUT UP!"

Korvarian said "You're lucky we got what we needed."

"So where's Donna Noble?" The Maestro said.

"I've sent her to the planet of Sirenos. Apparently Max Zeus has some backstabbers in his corporation."

The Maestro said "Interesting huh?"

Korvarian said "We've only 18 planets left before our plans comes to fruition."

The two went to another room.

Sirenos 1:00 PM

The Doctor and River Song had met up with the bearers after they exited the spa.

The Doctor said "Hello."

Twilight said "Hi. So we appreciate you taking us on this vacation." Rainbow Dash was looking a River a little bit.

The Doctor said "Well I usually take my companions somewhere nice if they wanted or needed it. I once took Rory and Amy to Venice."

The group then saw a figure in the distance. The Doctor and the bearers noticed something wrong about her and the Doctor noticed something familiar about her. The Doctor thought 'On the other hand Venice wasn't quite peaceful when we went there.' The group went and chased the figure.

Eventually they saw her back near the restaurant. They saw the woman near the red beast from earlier. The Doctor her said "I'm looking for the Siren Goat?"

A man nearby said "Ah, right this way."

The group went and followed the woman until they saw a blood-red goat in a cage. The ponies were a little scared. The man said "So why would you want this goat here?"

the woman uncloaked herself and revealed her self to be Donna Noble. The Doctor was a little baffled. The ginger woman looked a little grey scale. She said "No reason." She shot the man and he fell dead. She went to the cage and released the beast until...

The Doctor said "Stop." Donna turned around and revealed that she was wearing an eye-patch.

Donna said "Oi what are you doing here. Oh right, you should be dead."

The Doctor said "I should ask the same. What happened to you."

Pinkie noticed the coloration and thought 'Hey doesn't she appear gray to you?'

The other ponies sans Twilight were too busy with the goat. Twilight thought 'You don't think...'

Donna said "Well I must be off. I have places to go, Silence to let fall." The Doctor tried to stopped her but she shot the cage open and vanished. The red beast was hit by Donna's weapon and was wounded as a result. It was angered by the blast and began chasing the group.

??? ??:00

"So how's the machine doing Hephaestus?" Max Zeus said to someone who was nearby a small pony-shaped machine.

"It's going well." Hephaestus said. "Prometheus' nanites proved promising. and the copies of the ponies minds are more useful then we've ever thought." he then put the card Donna found in the Hephaestus Division into the machine.

Max said "So what should we call her? Incitatus?"

Hephaestus said "Yeah let's call her that and maybe replace the traitors with her then."

Max said "So what would you propose then?"

Hephaestus said "Well consider how these ponies seem to be named for their purpose I was thinking Homonoia." He began to start up the robot.

The machine was scanning the cards she began to absorb the minds and thoughts that were copied into the cards. The machine was struggling in pain until she said in monotone "I am Homonoia. What is your command?"

Max Zeus "You know about a certain group of ponies with certain accessories?"

Homonoia said "SCANNING. KEYWORD [Elements of Harmony]" After a while she said "What should I do about these ponies?"

Max said "I want them to know what it truly feels like to be one with each other."

Homonoia said "Understood." The robot mare left. Her horn and wings glowing in the dim light. Her flank bearing an image of a spiral of every colors with strange shapes in the center.

Max said "And by the way. Try to look like you're constantly bleeding alright?"

Homonoia said "UNDERSTOOD." The robotic mare left the room.

Dabih ♑ Relaxation Dissonance

Sirenos 1:30 PM 2/02/6111

Cheerilee was checking if the Cutie Mark Crusaders are alright. She saw that three fillies were playing together. She was a little happy to see them. She was about to leave the room until...

"Miss Cheerilee?" Apple Bloom said. Much to Cheerilee's amazement. It appears that Apple Bloom was no longer dumb-stuck. The other two fillies were also behind her.

The teacher pony said "Yes?"

"We're sorry we worried you and everypony." Sweetie Belle said, knowing that their silence had troubled their friends and family. They saw Starsong, Toola Roola Flitter, Cloudchaser and Rose Tyler there.

Starsong said "So are the fillies okay now?"

The 4 ponies nodded. The group the heard something from the streets below. The group went to check it out.

Sirinos 1:35 PM

Lyra and Bonbon were looking for gloves and socks for with Minty and Ditzy. the grey pegasus was eating from a tray of muffins.

Lyra said "You sure like muffins huh?"

Ditzy said "Of course."

Minty said "Over there!" The green earth pony pointed to a discount sign for socks and gleefully trotted to the store.

Inside the store Amy and Rory were looking for some supplies when they saw the ponies came in. A while later they helped the ponies find some socks and Amy paid for the pair along with some gloves and a fez for the Doctor and some more bandages. The group the heard some noise a while back and saw a red goat-like monstrosity moved passed the store. The 4 ponies were visibly shaken. They then saw the Doctor with River, Twilight, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Applejack. The group went to see what was going on.

Sirenos 2:00 PM

The Doctor's group were busy trying to stop the beast before it could do any damage. Applejack managed to get some rope and lassoed the beast but that didn't even slow it down. Instead the orange mare was sliding along the road. Eventually the crimson beast broke the rope and moved away into an empty forest nearby.

The rest of the Doctor's current companions had met up with the group and were a little baffled.

Rainbow Dash said "What the hay was that!?"

The Doctor said "A Siren Goat I believe."

Rarity said "Can you tell us what this is?"

"Apart from an endangered species?" The Doctor said.

The group decided to head back to the resort and before the Doctor explains what the beast is.

Sirenos 2:10 PM

The Doctor went to the TARDIS hoping to find a particulate book. Everyone else was in the resort. They could see several police aliens looking up and examine the mess. The Doctor returned with a book called "Dangerous Endangered Species."

Twilight said "Doctor what kind of book is that?"

The Doctor said "Hopefully one that can help us with this Siren Goat." He turned the pages until a picture of a blood red goat-like beast came up.

Twilight started reading the book and thought 'So this alien goat's cry can attract other siren goats?'

Fluttershy thought 'Um Twilight, all animals have a mating call of sorts.'

Twilight thought 'Good point.' She continued reading until she saw a passage that she read aloud:

The Siren Goat's mating call can attract more then just other Siren Goats. When extremely lonely or lost. The call can attract those that can hear it. 90% of those that had heard it are entranced and follow the sound no matter what. Most of these people do not survive.

The Doctor said "Hence the name."

River Song went out of the room for now. Starsong looked outside. Flitter and Cloudchaser went to her. Cloudchaser said "Are those the cumulonimbus clouds you were talking about?"

Starsong said "Yeah, and in this climate, Chances are we may get some rain."

After a while River returned saying "We have a problem." She explained that the meteor that was said to land tonight will land inside the forest. And that the forest would flood from the rain as a result.

Twilight was still reading the book and she read another passage:

A Siren Goat's call can still be uttered even in death. Be wary of flooded areas and oceans. The planet they were inhabiting was lost to such a flood and were decimated 9 times leaving less then 10% surviving.

At this point everyone decided to lure the beast away from the forest. They exited the resort in hopes for finding the beast.

London 3:00 PM 9/07/2012

Hermes had managed to escape Max Zeus' security forces for now. but the machine had to find someone connected with the Doctor. He saw some people nearby. They were Martha Jones and Mickey Smith. Hermes was in luck. He put on a cloak and tried to move forward. But for some reason the machine had trouble moving. The couple noticed him and tried to help the machine as he collapsed.

Martha noticed some alien technology on him and said "Mickey call Jack." her husband complied as they took the machine indoors.

Sirenos 2:45 PM 2/02/6111

Rarity thought 'This forest is so dirty for being near a resort.' The Doctor's group have entered the forest where the Siren Goat had entered. It was raining

Applejack thought 'Well what did y'all expect a fresh clean meadow with little trees?'

Pinkie Pie thought 'Ooh maybe we can go on a safari for our next vacation.'

Meanwhile Starsong and Toola Roola were checking for the goat. The multicolored maned unicorn said "Do you think that the goat was sent here?"

Starsong said "That seems highly unlikely." She was too busy looking at the clouds above. The rain was not enough to flood the resort or forest yet. She saw the fillies were busy playing in the rain. Applejack and Rarity also saw the fillies playing and were happy that they no longer have to see red nanobots again. They were still worried by the red color of the goat.

The Doctor and Amy looked ahead. They saw no sign of the goat yet.

Amy said "Doctor was that..."

"Donna Noble?" The Doctor said. "I'm afraid so Pond." The Doctor was a little distraught. He had seen the dulled coloration on his former companion. He knows that The maestro must had something to do with this. But he wonders why. Why put her in with the Silence and was she able to remember him. He almost brushed the possibility aside until realizing that if the eye-drive can hod an image of the silence, would it be able to hold...

The group heard something. It was the goat's call. The Doctor, River and the bearers were immune to the call but almost everyone else was entranced. Their problem had just became much more difficult.

Nashira ♑ Hunter's Trance

Sirenos 3:00 PM 2/02/6111

The Doctor, River Song, Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Applejack were looking for the Siren Goat while making sure the rest of the group, now entranced by it's cry, didn't walk into death. The rain was pouring hard and fast. Eventually the group went to a cave where the noise from the water knocked everyone out of their trance.

"What happened?" Amy said.

The Doctor explained about the Siren Goat again. Later they exited the cave and continued their search.

Rarity thought about how she was gonna take another day at the spa when this is over.

Rainbow Dash thought 'Rarity are you still going on about the mud?'

Rarity thought 'I can't help this place is so messy.' The multicolored maned pegasus placed her hoof on her face.

Later they found the Goat. It was sleeping inside another cave. It was night out. The Moon shone thought a hole in the clouds as the storm vanishes. Various alien lobsters, crabs, and crayfish were swimming in the flooded lakes. They could see the meteor approaching the planet's atmosphere.

"So any ideas Doctor?" River Song said.

The Doctor looked at Fluttershy who was busy comforting Toola Roola who appeared scared for some reason.

Outside the cave. The robot pony Homonoia looked at the sky and saw the meteor. She scanned the cave and said "SCANNING. SCAN COMPLETE. SUBJECT IS IN THE CAVE." She then entered the cave.

Sirenos 7:00 PM

The group was wonder how to get the beast out before the meteor hits with out waking it up. Meanwhile Starsong went to Toola Roola. She said "What's wrong?"

The multicolored maned unicorn said "Nothing." While focusing on the lights.

"Are you scared of the dark?" Starsong said.

Toola Roola was a little embarrassed before she went to deny that claim. She said "It's not the dark I'm afraid of."

Starsong was unconvinced. But she dropped the subject.

Meanwhile Twilight and Fluttershy were examining the beast. The purple unicorn thought 'How did it get on this planet in the first place?'

Fluttershy thought 'I don't know, but it sure looks...' She then gulped. '...scary.'

'Maybe I can levitate him, like I did that Usra Minor a while back.' Twilight thought. 'No that took a lot of magic.'

Back with the Doctor he and River looked outside. River said "Any ideas?"

The Doctor said "Well I can try and use the sonic screwdriver to mimic the cry. But it'll take waking it up. Not sure if i want to do that right now."

While everyone was pondering how to get the beast away form the forest and the resort. Homonoia was moving closer. She said "APPROACHING TARGET FROM 500 FEET AWAY." She then moved closer.

Sirenos 7:30 PM

The group noticed something in the distance. Everyone went to check it out. The Doctor's group traversed the caves as they keep hearing the noise.

Pinkie Pie said "Who that?" She saw a faint figure in the distance and went after her. Her friends followed asking Pinkie to slow down. They noticed footprints similar to the goat's.

Eventually the group caught up with them in an empty room. Everyone was baffled by this turn of events.

Rainbow Dash said "Alright, what's going on?"

The Doctor just realized something. He ran back to where the group was. When they got there they saw that the Siren Goat had vanished. The Doctor said "Trouble."

Sirenos 7:45 PM

Homonoia lured the awakened Siren Goat to the highest point in the forest. The machine said "SOUNDPROOFING." The area behind them had been encased inside a thin barrier. The machine and goat then faced the resort. The goat was attached to some wires. For some reason the robot pony was feeling guilty. She began to apply electrical shock to the beast. Forcing it blood red goat to cry. The nearby machinery amplified the sound and directed it to the resort. Soon thousand s of people were gathering outside the forest and were stuck in a trance.

The entranced civilians and tourists were now walking towards the forest and the meteor was still inside the thick atmosphere of Sirenos.

Meanwhile The Doctor's group was busy looking for the goat. They began to hear it's cry but for some reason no one was enthralled with it this time.

Twilight said "Doctor something's wrong. I can feel it."

The Doctor said "You and me both." The decide to follow the sound.

Sirenos 8:00 PM

Homonoia noticed something She said "SCANNING. LIFE-FORMS DETECTED." She put on a hologram that made her looked like she's bleeding and moved away form the agonized Goat. She also disguised herself as a cerulean unicorn using holograms. She went o find the life forms.

Sirenos 8:10 PM

The Doctor's saw someone who looked like a pony. The ponies were baffled. The mysterious pony said "Help me." and began coughing. Most of the ponies saw the blood pouring out of her wound.

River thought something's was fishy here.

Fluttershy decided to try and help the poor girl. She went to her and said "Cheerilee can you take her back to the cave?" Fluttershy decided to help the goat first then worry about the mysterious pony.

"Sure." Cheerilee said. She took her back to the nearby cave. Rory, Amy, and River also went with her. The Doctor and the bearers of the Elements ashed everyone else to head back there as well while they find the Goat.

Alshat ♑ The Meteor of the Sirens

Sirenos 8:45 PM 2/02/6111

The Doctor, Twilight, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Fluttershy had made it to where the goat is. They could see the and hear the goat's bleating. They could also see several people moving towards the water dazed and in a trance.

'Well...' Fluttershy then gulped. 'Here goes.' The yellow pegasus went to the red goat, hoping to calm it down. She spoke with the goat for awhile and by that time the people at the resort were at the edge of the flooded forest. They then returned to their homes wondering what was going on.

The Doctor noticed something in the shadows, as did Twilight...

"Look out!" Twilight cast as small barrier over the group. A laser hit the shield from the bushes.

"Tsk tsk. Ya couldn't hold still and take the shot wouldn't ya?"

Donna Noble moved out of the bushes. She was greyer than she was last time much to everyone's horror.

Fluttershy finished speaking to the goat and it ran far away from the forest. The Doctor was a little stunned by Donna's appearance. He said "Donna what happened to you?"

"Like I would tell you what happened." Donna said.

"Ooh I know, I know. You walked inside a flour factory? No that's not right..." Pinkie said. "Rainbow factory? No..."

Donna aimed her blaster at the pink mare. The Doctor tried to reason with his former companion. But she wouldn't listen. Eventually several Silents were seen from the shadows. The group decided to flee and mark themselves. The Doctor not having the courage to fight someone who was once his friend. The meteor was now out of the atmosphere and ready to come crashing down.

TARDIS ??:00

The Rest of the Doctor's companions had made it back to the TARDIS with Homonoia. Rory and Amy tended to her wounds. River Song on the other hand was feeling cautious with her.

Flitter and Cloudchaser were admiring the view and Starsong, Cheerilee and Toola Roola were helping the Cutie mark Crusaders to bed. Lyra and Bonbon were out somewhere while Minty and Dizty were checking out the new socks.

After her wounds were taken care of, Homonoia checked out the TARDIS interior, it felt like she was looking for something.

Meanwhile after the fillies were in bed. Cheerilee, Starsong, and Toola Roola went to another room. Starsong said "I think I want to retire permanently form singing after this is all over."

Toola Roola and Cheerilee were surprised by the announcement. Cheerilee said "Why? You were a great singer."

The violet pegasus responded "But I haven't sung in a while and you know I was too busy to even send letters. And besides Ponyville seems like a nice place to live, well in the few days we were here at least."

The pink multicolored maned unicorn said "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"I'm positive." Starsong said. "It's grown to be too much to keep up with. Losing my signing voice feels more like a vacation. A time to get away form it all and have fun with my friends."

"Alright if you want to." Cheerilee said. The three mares went to sleep.

Meanwhile River was looking at Homonoia. She was sure the blue earth pony couldn't be trusted. Homonoia was checking her green mane and left. River thought to herself 'I'm sure you've got something to hide.' She followed Homonoia for a while.

Sirenos 9:15 PM

The Doctor's group was running from the Silents. Pinkie's tail was getting twitchy. The magenta earth pony looked at the sky to see the meteor now a meteorite fall from the sky. The group had made it to high ground. The elevation was enough for them to avoid the meteorite's landing witch caused small waves to flood the forest. By the time that happened the Silents had vanished.

Twilight though 'What the hay was that all about?' regarding the Silents sudden disappearance.

Pinkie thought 'Maybe they were afraid of water?' Twilight was unamused by the answer.

The Doctor meanwhile went to get the chronosteel form the meteorite. Inside the rock was 7 pieces. One had the constellation and sign for Caprricornus and was an indigo color. the others had the constellation for Volans, Reticulum, Pictor, Pavo, Aquila, and Canes Venatici.

The Doctor was now confused. From the greying he could tell that The Maestro of Discord had something to do with this but why? And what were the Silence planning this time.

The group decided to head back to the TARDIS with the chronosteel.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor's group had returned and dried off. Rarity was more than pleased to dry off the rainwater and such. The Doctor went to the dwarf star alloyed room. Once there he let the chronosteel go and embed itself into places on the room. The sign for Capricorn (♑) now glows a bright indigo on the turning ceiling. He said "14 left now." He check the Antykythera mechanism to see if there are any changes. Sure enough the gears had turned and now pointed to Aquarius (♒). He left the room with the mechanism. leaving the door open as it slowly closed. Long after he was gone and the door was about to close a blue hoof stopped it with a clang.

The Doctor looked at his Tarot card again and saw the first card was Death. The Doctor was a little concerned by these cards. First the Hanged man, then the 10 of swords, now Death. What do they mean. he pondered the question for a while but decided to wait until he got the coordinates first.

Sirenos 9:00 PM

Donna Noble went to some of the Silents and said "The Doctor had gathered the chronosteel."

One of the Silents said "Good. Now we can take this planet." Several other Silents had took the machine with Trixie strapped into it. The Silents vanished as the machine began to power up and Trixie forced to cast the time stopping spell again.

Time on Sirenos had came to a halt. More of the Silents went to retrieve the unicorn and the machine.

London 4:00 PM 9/10/2012

Martha and Mickey went to check on Hermes. The robot said "Your friend sis in mortal danger, you planet is in mortal danger."

Mickey deadpanned "Surprise surprise." He saw the earth get invaded several times and his wife saw the universe almost being sent to oblivion at least once.

Martha said "What do you mean?"

The robot said "Their...coming." the robot had shut itself off. Ever since they brought Hermes to their home. He'd had problems staying charged.

"Jack and Gwen are coming here soon." Mickey said "Maybe they can figure out what this robot's doing here."

Martha said "I think he came here to warn us of something." Martha said "But what?"

The two decided to wait until Jack comes in hopes of figuring out the mystery of the robot.

Sadalsuud ♒ Nightmare's Honesty

??? ??:00

Applejack found herself inside a giant spaceship. A sign behind her read "108 sill points."

"What the--, Where am I?" Applejack said. She started to walk around the ship looking for anybody to help.

"ANYPONY HERE?" The orange mare said. She walked around the area for a while before she saw an orange silhouette in the distance. The silhouette moved away.

"Hey wait." Applejack said before chasing the figure. The figure stopped in front of another sign that read "88 screaming stars." Applejack got a closer look before the figure moved away again. She saw that the figure looked like her wearing her necklace.

"That can't be right." Applejack said. She chased the figure to get some answers. Eventually she found herself and the figure on a fact plain. She saw rocks and statues inside as well as the words "Another Harmony."

She saw her doppelganger with her friends. They too were wearing their Elements of Harmony. There was a glowing sphere between them.

'This is starting to look familiar.' The orange earth pony thought. She decided to step closer to find out what is going on as her friends and clone began to use the Elements.

However the ground beneath them gave way and Applejack's clone and friends were surrounded by a large dust storm. Applejack said "Get out. Now!" but it was too late the dust had covered them and obscured Applejack's vision. When it cleared she saw her clone and friends, petrified.

Applejack said "No, This can't be right." She ran to the statues unaware of the dust moving behind her.

What she saw was true. Her clone and friends were turned to stone statues right in front of her eyes. She saw those statues crumble into dust as if to tell her that her friends could not be saved. The Elements of Harmony went with them to oblivion. Applejack was now sad. she had lost her friends and she's now all alone in a spaceship she did not have a clue to navigate in.

She heard something brewing behind her. She saw a huge whirlwind of dust coming toward her. She tried to run away but the dust was everywhere. She was trapped. The dust had cover and petrified her. She was screaming inside as this time the dust did not relent in eroding her petrified form until it cracks. A goal the dust had succeeded in a few seconds.

TARDIS ??:00

Applejack had just woken up from a nightmare. She decided to let her friends know what happened.

Meanwhile The Doctor was inputting the coordinates again. He looked at his Tarot deck and decided to place a spread. The first card depicted a young lad riding a pony that looks like Princess Celestia. The sun rising over them. The upper right said "XIX" and the bottom had "The Sun" written on the bottom. The next card was the Moon. The card after that depicted Twilight and her closest friends drinking form 6 cups and appearing as if they were reminiscing about their past. a 6 was writ on the upper right. and the last card was the Star.

The Doctor thought about what had happened at this point and remembered that pony they found on Sirenos.

Later Applejack found her friends. She began to explain her nightmare to them.

Twilight thought 'Wait we were petrified in you dream?'

Applejack nodded. Fluttershy thought 'How terrible.'

Applejack thought 'What do we do?'

Pinkie Pie, and rarity had no clue. Rainbow Dash thought 'Well we are almost done collecting chronosteel. Just 14 pieces left right?'

Twilight thought 'Yeah why?'

The mares continued their psychic conversation, unaware that Homonoia was watching from a distance. She said quietly "SUBJECTS 1-5 ARE PROPERLY SYNCHRONIZED."

The group later left the part of the TARDIS. Homonoia went to the dwarf star alloy room.

TARDIS ??:00

River Song saw Rose Tyler and said "Have you seen that blue pony?"

Rose said "Who? Rainbow Dash? I think she went that way." and pointed to a hallway.

River said "Not her. Homonoia."

Rose said "Oh. She went to where the chronosteel is. Why?"

River said "I don't trust her. Something's off."

"You don't seem the trusting sort." Rose teased.

"You don't find it odd that she suddenly appeared out of nowhere like that?" River said.

Rose said "Actually I do. But stranger things had happened."

River thought about some of her time with the Doctor including the incident at Stonehenge.

Rose said "Did you tell the Doctor about this?"

River said "Not yet. He seems worried enough as it is."

The two girls saw Homonoia chatting with Lyra and Bonbon. River felt something...wrong with her. She said to Rose "I'll tell him as soon as I can."

Later Cheerilee, Toola Roola, and Starsong were busy teaching another art class to the fillies. After the class was over Homonoia went to the mares and said "Hey, I have a weird question."

"Sure fire away." Cheerilee said. The ponies feel something familiar about the strange blue pony. Toola Roola dreaded that feeling.

The blue earth pony said "Do you know what Twilight and her friends are doing?"

Starsong said "Not really. They've been rather secretive since we've been to that lotus planet."

Homonoia said "I see. Well I'll go ask them then, thanks." The blue pony left them. The TARDIS was about to land.

??? ??:00

The Maestro was busy meditating. He saw saw Korvarian walk upside down above him. She said "What are you doing."

The room they're in had a lot of crystals. Several over people walked in and fell to the ceiling where the Maestro's meditating. The Maestro said in the Master's voice "Meditating. I'm trying to clear my mind." He them switched to Discord's voice and said "Aw what's the matter you don't like me?"

The voiced switched back and the Maestro said "You invade my body, try to take my victory. What do you think?"

He swapped voices again and said "Ooh feisty. Well good luck using my powers them, they tend to be a little chaotic." The Master's vice returned and the Maestro said "I can manage, so long as I get some peace and quiet from you!"

Korvarian thought to herself 'If all goes as planned he won't get the peace he needs.' She said "We've placed the mole in the Doctor's little crew. Chances are she'll do her job better than the last one did."

The Maestro deadpanned "That will be easy. The Doctor can't marry two people at once."

Korvarian said "We've managed to get the Trickster to cooperate with us. Chances are he will do a better job."

The Maestro said in the master's voice "Great, another being with chaotic powers. What could possibly go wrong?"

Korvarian said "You'll be the first to know." She left the room. The Maestro was unamused with this turn of events. He said "You're not the only one with a mole." He them continued meditating.

Ruchbah ♒ A Yellow Wood

Atlantis 8:13 AM 3/10/5657

The TARDIS lands on a planet called Atlantis. The Doctor went out first. He thought 'Atlantis huh?' The group went out to see the streets glowing in the domed city. The rest of the group went out of the TARDIS and into the bio-luminescent city.

Twilight said "Wow this place is..." She had no words for how to describe the city.

Rainbow Dash thought 'Twilight, are you okay?'

Twilight thought 'Of course I'm okay. Let go see what this place has to offer.'

The purple mare took her friends and went to explore the place. Homonoia followed them form a distance.

River went to the Doctor and said "Doctor do you feel something's wrong with Homonoia?"

The Doctor took a look at the cerulean pony and said "Not really, why?"

River said "No reason. I'm gonna follow her, make sure she doesn't get in any trouble."

The Doctor said "Alright." River left. Everyone went their separate ways. Whether to look for the chronosteel, explore the city or in River's case find out more about the strange blue pony.

Atlantis 8:15 AM

Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Applejack were exploring the town. Twilight was a little more happy than seen previously.

They walked in some sort of building. There they saw a fortuneteller there. The teller said "Hello I'm Apate and I can tell you your fortune."

The ponies seem a little confused. Pinkie said "Ooh can you tell me where the next bake sale is?"

Apate said "First I need to know what happened to you at this point. Tell me your past and I can tell you your future." She gazed into their eyes.

Fluttershy thought 'I don't know. She doesn't seem...'

Applejack thought 'Trustworthy?'

Pinkie Pie thought 'I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to tell her about ourselves.'

Apate said "Well are you gonna tell me about your past?"

"Ooh ooh, Me first." Pinkie said. She began explaining her life story from the rock farm to her birthday party to the Silence invading Equestria to this moment.

Apate said "I see. Tell me more about your that birthday party?" She led the Pink mare to a room in the back.

Pinkie said "Well I forgot my birthday once and I had a super-duper party for my pet alligator the night before..." She rambled on about her surprise party until they reached a room with 6 capsules.

By the time Pinkie Pie stopped talking Apate said "Go on enter this capsule and wait for your friends."

"Okay" Pinkie said. She entered the capsule and soon a pink mist flooded it. Pinkie was rambling a lot until she suddenly stopped in place. The mist became too thick to see through. Apate went back to check on the other ponies.

Atlantis 8:30 AM

Apate went back to the lobby. There Twilight asked "Where's Pinkie?" The 5 ponies felt something strange.

Apate lied "I sent her to the waiting room. She'll wait for you there."

Applejack was not convinced. She thought 'Ah wouldn't buy this hogwash even if you made cider out of it.'

Twilight looked at the orange earth pony and thought 'Well maybe we'll fine out where pinkie is after we have our fortunes told.'

Rarity was the next one to have her fortune told. Apate said "You must tell me your past so that I can accurately tell your future."

Rarity said "Well okay then." She began to explain from the time she got her cutie mark to now. For some reason she took a little more time than usual talking about a fashion show she and her friends had.

Apate picked up on this and said "Tell me, A brilliant and fashionable girl such as yourself, surely you've showed off you clothes somewhere. A fashion show perhaps?" And began to lead her to the back. On the way rarity explained a fashion show she and her friends had using dresses made for the Grand Galloping Gala. She told hoe the first one was a bust and how the the one after was a success.

Apate led the white unicorn to a room with 6 capsules. One of them had a pink mist for some reason. The fortune teller opened a capsule halfway from the room from the pink one and said "Go ahead and wait in this capsule. I'll bring your friends here soon enough.

Rarity said "Okay then." She entered the capsule and saw it close on her. Green mist flooded the capsule. Rarity was shocked. She was trying to get the capsule open, but she was soon stuck in place, unmoving. The green mist became too thick to see the pony trapped inside. Or maybe that was because there was no pony trapped inside there. Apate saw Rarity and Pinkie disappeared into more mist in their respective capsules. She returned to lure the other 4 ponies.

Atlantis 8:35 AM

Elsewhere the Doctor was looking for the chronosteel. Rose, Amy, and Rory went with him. Rose saw "Bad Wolf" written in graffiti nearby. A reminder of the risk she took to save the Doctor form the Daleks in Satellite 5 The words were underlined by a strange crack that looked like a smile. But she paid it no mind.

Meanwhile Homonoia was looking at Apate's building. The cerulean earth pony noticed something and decided to move away.

River Song was looking from a distance. Looking for answers. She was about to move until...

"What'cha doing?"

River was surprised. She looked behind her and saw Minty and Ditzy Doo. She said "I could ask you the same thing." She began to follow Homonoia.

"Are you stalking that pony?" Minty said.

"No..I mean...yes..I mean you shouldn't be here!" River said.

"Maybe we can help." Ditzy said before tripping and causing some trash to fall.

River didn't have any time for this. She said "Fine, but stay at a distance, we don't want to attract her attention." The 3 began to follow the blue pony.

Atlantis 8:45 AM

The strange feeling returned to the ponies as Apate returned and said "I've sent Rarity to the waiting room. Who's next?"

Rainbow Dash decided to go first. Applejack thought 'Are you sure you want to do this Rainbow?'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Oh come on. It's just fortunetelling. I'll be back in no time.'

Applejack had her doubts about that. Apate said "Like your friends I need to know your past to see your future."

Rainbow Dash said "Alright then I will tell you everything I know." She started from her time at flight school.

Twilight, Applejack and Fluttershy were discussing in the meantime. Applejack thought 'I really don't trust her one bit.'

Fluttershy thought 'I don't know she seems so nice.'

Applejack thought 'Something's up. I can feel it. When the last time you saw Rainbow Dash talking about her life in front of a total stranger?'

Speaking of witch Rainbow then told Apate about her issue with The Mare-Do-Well. Apate said "Tell me more." and began to lead the blue pegasus to the back.

Rainbow Dash said "Let's see one time I saved a filly and got recognized as a hero for it. My ego was running out of control there and my friends thought they had to pull some sort of ridiculous stunt and upstage me for it."

"I see." Apate said. They entered a room in the back with 6 capsules. One was filled with pink mist and another was filled with green. The fortuneteller opened a capsule next to the green one and said "Enter this capsule and I'll tell your fortune."

"Alright." Rainbow Dash said. She entered the capsule as it close on her. Blue mist started filling the room. The rainbow-maned pegasus said "What's going on?"

Apate said "Your fortune."

"What kind of fortune is this!? When I get out your are so gonna--" Rainbow Dash said. She was now stuck in place as the blue gas around her thickened to a point where you cant see her. Apate went back to the lobby.

Atlantis 9:00 AM

Apate went back to the lobby. She said "I've sent--"

Applejack interrupted "Yeah yeah, you sent Rainbow to the [waiting room.] Give my fortune next."

"You know I must know your past to tell your future." Apate said.

Applejack decided to stay silent, but the fortune teller's eyes gazed into hers and she found herself talking about her times in Manehatten, her experience with her farm and most interestingly to Apate her loss at a rodeo and time at Dodge Junction. She said "You don't want to know your fortune. You want to see the waiting room huh? Very well come with me."

Twilight thought 'Good luck.' Ever since Pinkie went to the back the ponies had felt something weird and that felling been increasing in strength with each "fortune" told.

On the way Applejack still couldn't stop talking to Apate. She was dwelling on that rodeo and her time working at the cheery orchard. She tried to stop talking feeling more tired with every word that comes out of her mouth. By the time they reached the back the orange earth pony was fatigued.

Apate opened the capsule next to the pink one and across from the blue one. She said "You need to rest now. Wait here and I'll bring your friends here soon."

Applejack complied and went into the capsule. She decided to lay down as her capsule closed. She fell to unconsciousness as orange gas descends on her. Unaware that she was tuck in stasis as the mist thickens. Soon both Applejack and Rainbow Dash disappeared form their capsules as more mist takes their place. Apate returned to the lobby.

Atlantis 9:15 AM

Apate returned to the lobby. The two ponies left: Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy were a little mroe disoriented then before. Apate said "Applejack's now in the waiting room. I think you need your fortune told next." She looked at Fluttershy.

The yellow pony gulped and said "Okay. I have to tell you my past right?"

Apate nodded. Fluttershy began to tell her past to her, feeling uncomfortable as she does so. She told of her time at flight camp, then of her failure to befriend any animals at the gala, then of that time she went to learn how to be assertive from a minotaur.

Apate said "How did your self help class work out for you?"

Fluttershy looked down and didn't see the fortuneteller leave. She said "Well um--" She saw that Apate had entered a hidden corridor and said "Wait up!" and began chasing her.

When she caught up to Apate she began explaining about how she felt like a monster after insulting Pinkie Pie and Rarity like that. She stopped in a room with 6 capsules. Two of them were clear but the other four were filled with a pink, orange, green and blue mist each. Apate opened the clear capsule between the green and orange ones and said "Come inside and I'll tell you your fortune."

Flutterhsy entered the capsule and had it close on her. She saw yellow mist enter her capsule. She felt scared. She tried to get away from the mist but was trapped in stasis as the mist envelopes her and thickens.

Apate said "5 down, one to go." and return for her last victim.

Atlantis 9:30 AM

Apate returned to the lobby and said to Twilight Sparkle "Fluttershy has joined your friends in the waiting room. I shall give you your fortune now."

"I know the drill." Twilight said. She was feeling empty. A void that can only be filled by one thing and one thing alone. She told the story of how she met her friends, and of the adventures she had with them. She said "For some reason I feel empty inside."

Apate lied "I get that a lot. Not everyone's can be satisfied with what fate has in store for them. Perhaps you miss your friends?"

Twilight said "Yeah I guess. It's kinda funny." She giggled. "One day I thought that friendship was not something worth striving for. And now I can't imagine life without them. They are like family to me."

Apate said "And you would follow them wherever they go? Be it through the pits of Tartarus or a merely alien forest?"

Twilight nodded.

Apate said "Tell me little pony, are there any others you miss?"

Twilight told Apate about her brother and her foalsitter, who are now married. She told about the baby dragon under her care, that she hadn't even seen since traveling with the Doctor, and most importantly she told her about her mentor. She told of a beautiful princess pony who can control the sun.

Twilight told pate about how she wouldn't try to disappoint Celestia. Apate said "So you fear about never seeing your friends again and disappointing your mentor huh? But surely even a student as faithful and trustworthy had made some mistakes right?" as her eyes gazed into Twilight's.

The purple unicorn felt compelled to tell the fortuneteller about her old rag-doll, and how she used a spell on it and unintentionally wreaked havoc. Twilight said "All that for want for a friendship report." and sighed.

Apate then led Twilight to the back room. There she saw 6 capsules: one clear, one blue, one green, one yellow, one, orange and one pink. The fortuneteller opened the clear capsule and said "Enter the capsule and wait for your fortune." Twilight did as such and saw it close behind her. She felt the feeling of loneliness fade away but being replaced by worry as if she felt her friend's presence. But she couldn't see them anywhere. Purple mist seeped into the capsule as Twilight saw Apate. the false fortuneteller said "Turn Left, and lose your friends. Turn Left and never meet that man. Turn Left and change the world."

Twilight tried to teleport but was stuck in stasis. Soon you couldn't see her through the mist as thick as pea soup. Fluttershy and Twilight disappeared into the mist. Apate cackled and left he room. She said to herself:

For want of a nail, the shoe was lost.

For want of a shoe, the horse was lost.

For want of a horse, the rider was lost.

For want of a rider, the message was lost.

For want of a message, the battle was lost.

For want of a battle, the kingdom was lost.

And all for want of a horseshoe nail.

Hydor ♒ All The Difference

Atlantis 11:50 AM 3/10/5657

The Doctor with Rose, River, Amy, and Rory had checked the west area of the building. They saw several consoles there. There were several monitors there. Amy went to check out the monitors. The group could see Apate in the lobby talking with Homonoia on the screen.

"This must be the security room." The Doctor said. "But where are the guards?"

Amy said "River can you use the camera to look for the missing ponies?"

River said "Sure why not I could use the experience for when I return to the Stormcage." She went ahead and pressed several buttons. The screen now has shown Cheerilee, Toola Roola, Starsong, and the 3 fillies in the northeast area of the building.

Rose noticed something moving close to the group. She took a blaster and went out. River switched to the southeast part of the building. There they saw Minty, Ditzy, Flitter, Cloudchaser, Lyra and Bonbon searching. The Doctor noticed something on the wall behind some curtains and said "Can you put an infrared filter on?"

River found a button with "infrared on it and pressed it. The screen now went into a monochrome red. There was a brick red rectangle behind those curtains. By this point the chronosteel in the bag was glowing.

Rory said "A hidden room?"

The Doctor felt unsure about something.

Meanwhile Rose was busy guarding the hallway. She was sure she'd seen something move in the shadows. She decided to go left.

Back at the security room River took off the filter. River said "I have a feeling that the past may hold the answer in to this puzzle." She rewound the tape back in the lobby around 2 to 4 hours. The screen now shows Apate with Twilight, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack. River thought 'I knew it!' The Doctor noticed that Rose went missing. He said "I'll be right back. You go find out where that door leads."

River said "Okay sweetie." The group split up. The Doctor to find Rose, and the Pond-Williams to find the ponies and see where the invisible door leads.

Eventually The Doctor saw Rose but with one major difference from when she left: She was marked.

Atlantis 12:00 NOON

Cheerilee was with Toola Roola, Starsong and the Cutie Mark Crusaders. The fillies were a little sad knowing that their loved ones had vanished. The teacher noticed a something opening from behind the curtains. She said "Um girls?"

The other 5 ponies looked to see the curtains open and reveal a corridor. She said "I'll go look for them in here alright?"

The others nodded as the plum earth pony galloped inside.

Ponyville ??:00

Pinkie Pie was still trying to keep on the path. Bur she began remembering the fun times she spent with her friends. She said "What's going on? I don't remember these." She saw imaged of her in a dress partying in a ballroom in Canterlot, She saw Ponyville in utter chaos, she seen a party inside Applejack's barn. She covered her head in pain. She said "Make it stop. Make it stop."

She heard a voice saying "You must remember."

The pain and memories stopped. She had seen everything up to meeting a particular donkey. She said "What's going on?" She had found herself at Sweet Apple Acres. Strangely enough the place was deserted. She decided to take a peak inside. She saw various decorations and balloons and a cake in the center. She examined the cake and found her face there, drawn in frosting.

She was confused. She memories had returned. She said "Is today my...birthday?" She looked at the banner above the doorway. The banner said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" as if confirming her suspicions. But she thought 'But why is nopony there?' She noticed the absence of her friends. She decided to try the cake. It was...

"Stale!" Pinkie Pie said. "Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I have to find them." the memories were pouring back into her as she made her way into a fork. The left led so a strange cherry orchard but the right led back to the bakery. The pink mare was confused. She felt conflicted. She felt something urging her to the left and so she took the left path. Unaware that the barn had suddenly became flooded. As well as Sugarcube Corner

Dodge Junction ??:00

Applejack was still working the cherry orchard. She saw a certain pink earth pony in the distance coming toward her. She knew what would happened and decided to move away before she was noticed.

"Applejack?"

Too late. Pinkie Pie bounced up to the orange earth pony and said "Hiya Applejack."

Applejack said "Pinkie what are you doing here?"

Pinkie said "I don't know. I just turned left looking for you and the others after you missed my surprise party."

Applejack was befuddled. She just stared blankly at Pinkie. The farm pony said "Well y'all need to git on out of--" She began seeing some images. Mostly of her making cider against two tall stallions. She wan kneeling over in pain.

Pinkie said "Applejack are you okay?"

The orange mare heard a voice saying "You must remember."

After a while the pain had numbed. Applejack began standing up and saying "Yeah Ah'm fine." before almost collapsing.

Pinkie Pie said "Here, you need some rest. Let me help." And began to carry her to the nearest building.

"Pinkie Ah don't need your help!" Applejack said. But she was too tired to budge.

Pinkie said "You're gonna work yourself to death if you continues going at these cherries non-stop. Have your forgot what happened the last time you did that?" Applejack was a little stunned. The blossoms were flying away from the trees. And Pinkie realized something. She said "Hey wait. What are you doing here in the first place. Did you lose another rodeo?"

Applejack was baffled, befuddled, confused. She said "Another? Pinkie how did you know?" The orange mare then saw images of a chase scene with her evading her friends. She saw Rainbow Dash know her bag with the medals open. She knew that she shouldn't be here now.

The two ponies were at a fork in the road. the left path led to a cloudy staircase while the other led to where the orchard workers would rest.

Pinkie said "Hey we could go rest here." and began to go right.

Applejack said "Left."

Pinkie stopped and said "Excuse me?"

"Go left. Something's telling me that we'll be better off there."

Pinkie said "But you're tired. If you go at it longer than this you coul--"

Applejack said "Ah'm not gonna die on you Pinkie Pie. Ah promise."

Pinkie said "Do you Pinkie Promise."

Applejack said "Yes" and did the appropriate gestures "Ah promise not to die of exhaustion until we get out of here."

Pinkie Pie said "Okay." and took the left path. She then said "By the way you haven't answered my question last time we were here. Which do you think is better: Chimi-cherry? Cherry-changa? Chimi-cherry-changa?.." as they ascended the spiral staircase.

Applejack thought that this is gonna be a long trip. When they started ascending the staircase the orchard around them began to turn to stone.

Atlantis 12:11 PM

Rose and the Doctor were covered in tally marks. They had stopped a battalion of Silents. The two noticed someone on the ground...

"Donna?" The Doctor said. The Doctor took a look and saw not only was it Donna Noble but she appears less Gray-scale then before. She was unconscious. The Doctor was a little confused. He and Rose carried the unconscious woman and went to find the others.

Meanwhile River, Rory and Amy had found Cherrilee's group... only without Cheerilee. They were a little confused... 'til they say the an empty corridor.

River said "Okay where's Cherrilee?" immediately thinking that she didn't think she would say that afterwards. By then Minty's herd of ponies had entered the room.

Starsong said "Cheeilee went in there alone."

Bonbon said "And you let her?"

The pink and blue maned pony did have a point. The Doctor and Rose caught up. The others noticed the unconscious Donna Noble there. Homonoia also caught up to the group.

River said to the blue earth pony "Where's Apate."

Homonoia said "I don't know. She said she was gonna do some errands."

River didn't believe that excuse for a second. But before she could question her again The Doctor said "I'll be right back Rory, Pond take care of her okay?" Before laying Donna's body down. And he went inside the hallway.

Somewhere over Everfree Forest ??:00

Rainbow Dash was still sulking on her cloud. She heard something from below. It was Pinkie Pie carrying Applejack. The former said "Whew that was hard. Before collapsing on the cloud. Applejakc was able to move again and stood up.

Rainbow Dash said "What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you I never want to see you anymore?"

Applejack said "What's going on Rainbow?"

Rainbow said "You know full well what's going on. Because of you and that stupid Mare-Do-Well costume of yours I became Ponyville's most hated pony."

Pinkie began to stand up and whispered "Didn't we let ourselves get revealed in some secluded alleyway where no pony would see us?"

Applejack said "Ah don't think that's the case here." She went a littler closer to the rainbow maned pegasus and said "Listen Sugarcube I don't know what went wrong at that--"

Rainbow interrupted "Don't know what went wrong? You were egging me on at Sugarcube Corner. You were trying to show me up not every time I try to be a--" She suddenly felt tremendous pain.

Rainbow Dash saw images of her trapped in a hospital and them images of her and Fluttershy and every other pegasus making a tornado of water. A voice said to her "You must remember."

The memories stopped. Rainbow Dash began to moved toward the cloud's right edge. She said "Look if you're not gonna leave me alone. Then I'm going to a place I know you won't follow me."

"Rainbow!" Applejack said "The only reason we pulled that stunt was because Your ego was going out of control!"

Rainbow Dash stopped. She said "Humph really."

Pinkie noticed some storm clouds coming from the horizon. She said "Um guys?" She saw the cloud below them beginning to change and her tail began to twitch.

Applejack didn't notice the hole that was growing below her. She shouted "Your [heroing] had been doing more harm than good. You could have gotten a lot of ponies..." she fell "Kiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeddddddddddd!"

Rainbow Dash was stunned. She said "Hold On!" began to dive into the ground to save her friend. Pinkie on the other hand saw a line of clouds moving left.

The blue pegasus was flying close to her friend but they were mover closer to the ground. She only had one chance...

She dived faster and faster until a giant rainbow ring emerged behind her. She had pulled off her best trick yet: the Sonic Rainboom. The force form the stunt allowed the pegasus enough speed to close the gap and save her orange friend. She grabbed Applejack by the hoof and pulled up. Remembering that The Mare-Do-Well unmasking but differently she saw Pinkie in the costume but the encounter took place in an deserted alleyway. save for one pony and a flower pot.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack were able to fly back to the cloud they were on. By that point The pegasus remember what happened the first time Mare-Do-Well was unmasked or rather what should have happened.

Rainbow Dash said "I'm sorry." She began to explain that she unmasked her friends in public for all to see. And how the public backlash drowned out her friend's explanation. She thought her friends betrayed her, but now she knew better. The group decided to follow the new cloud trail that leads to the left.

Albali ♒ Synchronization

Atlantis 12:45 3/10/5657

The Doctor had entered the room in the back. There he saw Cheerilee. He said "Did you find them yet?"

The plum earth pony said "No."

The Doctor noticed something familiar around him. He checked the capsules and said "Well I think I know where they are."

The Doctor checked the capsules again. He can definitively sense the presence of the bearers. Cheerilee noticed that something was glowing in the Doctor's bag.

"What's in there anywhere?" She said after pointing her hoof at the bag.

The Doctor open the bag and saw the chronosteel with Aquarius was glowing. He thought 'Well I did say that the blood chronosteel may have unique propitiates.' The metal spheres began to glow followed by the capsules, The Doctor could make out several silhouettes in the capsules. The Doctor and Cheerilee began to examine the capsules.

Ponyville ??:00

Fluttershy was still in her wrecked cottage. Wanting to keep herself away from the other ponies. Outside the cottage Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Rainbow Dash were noticing the state of the home. The winds were glowing at an unusually high speed. Applejack and Pinkie were worried Rainbow Dash even more so. The trio made their way to the door. Applejack found a large amount of rope and thought it would come in handy.

Rainbow Dash tried opening it and said "It's locked."

They heard a voice inside. The voice said "Who's there? Go away!"

Pinkie said "Fluttershy? It's me Pinkie."

Rainbow Dash said "And Dash."

Applejack said "And Applejack." The orange mare took a careful look at the cottage and added "What in tar-nation happened here?"

Fluttershy opened the door and said "What are you doing here?"

The rainbow maned pegasus said "We came to get you out of here."

The yellow pegasus said "You can't. I don't want you to be seen with a monster like me."

She tried to close the door but Rainbow Dash blocked it with her hoof. She said "You want to tell us what happened?"

Fluttershy sighed and let the three in. They saw that the inside of her cottage was just as run down from the inside if not more so. Pinkie Pie thought she'd seen the house in that same state before and thus said "Did you see Iron Will?"

Rainbow Dash and Applejack were confused. Thought they had heard of him once they didn't know who he is. Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie explained who the minotaur was.

Rainbow Dash said "But Fluttershy you can't let that stop you from being who you are."

Fluttershy said as she walked away "It's too late for that. I'm too far gone. Too--" She than collapsed. She saw images of her and Dash in a watery cyclone. She heard a voice say "You must remember."

The other 3 ponies were worried. Rainbow Dash went over the yellow pegasus and try to help her. The pain had numbed. Fluttershy was staring to remember. This was the point before...

The 4 had seen several tornadoes coming towards the cottage. They escaped the cottage and try to flee from the tornadoes. They were chased all the way to a fork in the road. There were tornadoes surrounding them. Tornadoes to the right, twisters to the left and nasty windstorms behind them.

Pinkie Pie said 'What do we do!?"

Fluttershy felt something guiding her to the left. She looked at Dash and the others and said "Do you want to go left?"

The twisters in the right side were closing in. The mares had decided to take the right path. Applejack used the rope to tie herself to Rainbow Dash. The rainbow maned pegasus said "Hey!"

Applejack said "You want to be blown away?" She then tied Pinkie and Fluttershy together as well and then said "Go Now!"

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash flew into the tornadoes to the left path. The windstorms had became gale force walls to either side. Applejack and Pinkie acted as anchor to keep the pegasi from flying off. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were flying as fast as they can knowing that the earth ponies can catch up.

Fluttershy's speed was waning. The tornadoes from behind were closing in as were the walls of wind. She and Pinkie were about to get caught until...

"Gotcha!" Rainbow Dash had grabbed Fluttershy by the hoof. Futtershy was a little glad to see her friends care for her even as a monster. Rainbow Dash flew the other 3 into a bright light that appeared in the path. They saw themselves inside a metropolis of sorts. Applejack recognized the place and thought 'It can't be...' The 4 took off the rope and went to find out where they are and who they would find there.

Atlantis 1:00 PM

River Song was keeping a close eye on Homonoia. The rest of the Doctor's group were waiting for him and Cheerilee. Inside the back room the Doctor saw the mist slowly transform into a solid form. He said to Cheerilee "Go and tell the others that I'll be a little longer then wait outside."

The plum mare said "Okay" and left. The Doctor continue to see the mist transform into the bearers of the Elements of Harmony. However the solids form lasted a second. The ponies still have a long way to go. In the split second before the mist became the dominant form The Doctor noticed something in their backs and said "I knew it."

He saw the chronosteel in the bag the violet org glowed brightly like the sun. "I wonder." The Doctor said. He took the purple orb out of the bag and held it high the orb's glow steadily increasing. The Doctor said "Let's see if there's a gate to open."

Manehatten ??:00

Rarity had moved in a condo with her supplies. She was wearing a black cloak. She said "Well it's not as big as the boutique. But at least I'll get a head start on a new life."

She heard a knock on the door and said "Who is it?" and opened the door to find Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. She said "Oh it's you come in. Come in." While hiding her disappointment form the fashion show. Unaware that the nearby radio said something about a large fire.

The other ponies were baffled. Fluttershy said "Rarity what are you doing in a place like this?" The condo looked like it'd be more fitting for a slob than Rarity. The paint was chipping, there were cockroaches in some places and in the terms of luxury the place had left a lot to be desired.

"Oh well you see this was the only place I can afford after the fashion show fiasco." Rarity said. "Where's Twil--" She then doubled over in pain. She said "What going on!?" She was crashing all over the condominium.

She heard a voice say "You must remember."

"Remember what?" Rarity said. She then saw images of her back at her boutique. She saw a blue maned pony asking her for gem-encrusted fashions. Then she saw a white blue maned stallion with her in Canterlot. The pain had almost numbed. By then she said "Well girls I'm sorry if I acted strange today. Don't tell me you forgot about the fashion show already?"

"You mean the one with Hoity-Toity?" Pinkie said. Rarity nodded.

Rainbow Dash said "But didn't he like ou--" Applejack nudged her. Rainbow said "What's going on?"

Applejack said "Ah think that time somehow is bein' messed with."

Rainbow said "How do you know?"

Applejack said "Think Rainbow didn't you notice something's off. two memories of the same event but different?"

Rainbow said "Good point. But how is this possible."

"Ah don't know but I have a feeling we're not out of the woods yet." Applejack said.

"Actually we have when we made it to Fluttershy's house." Pinkie said.

Rarity levitated her pack and said "We'll you're welcome to stay with me if you want. I'm sorry that there's not enough space and--" She smelled something. "Do you guys smell smoke?"

Everypony looked out the nearest window. They saw a large fire burning over the entire city. The 5 had decided to find a way out and went upstairs.

The inferno was spreading and chasing up to the mares. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash were looking for clouds outside bu all that's out there were smoke. Applejack, Rarity and Pinkie Pie were using up all the extinguishers they could find to put out the blaze. But it was no use, the fires were too big.

Eventually they made it to two flight of stairs the one on the left looked like it was made of light and the one on the right looked like plain old wood.

Fluttershy was scared. Rainbow Dash and Applejack were arguing over which flight to take. Pinkie Pie was trying to put out the flames with the last extinguisher. Rarity felt something form the stairway of light. She said "Take the left stairs."

Fluttershy said "Are you sure?"

"Sweetie I couldn't been more sure of anything in my life. Now go!" Rarity said as she tied to block the flames.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash went first followed by Pinkie Pie. Fluttershy was about to ascend the stairs until she saw Rarity collapse form he heat. The flames were ready to engulf her. Fluttershy said "No Rarity no!" And flew to her as fast as she could. She carried her unconscious body up the flight and followed the others until they reached another light.

They group of 5 found themselves inside a familiarly scary forest. Fluttershy laid Rarity down as she woke up saying "Thanks sweetie."

Applejack said "Do y'all think we'll find Twilight in the forest?"

"Hay yeah." Rainbow Dash said. "I'm sure we'll find her."

After getting some rest they began their search for the purple unicorn. The sun above them shone brightly.

Everfree Forest ??:00

Twilight Sparkle had returned back to the fork she was still looking for a reason to live. She saw 5 silhouettes call for her form the shadows. She recognized the shadows as her friends and went to them. She said "What are you doing here?"

"We were looking for you." Pinkie said.

"You got us worried there for a spell darling." Rarity said.

"What are you doing in the Everfree Forest?" Applejack said.

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash asked the same question.

Twilight said "You don't remember the want-it need-it spell?"

Rainbow Dash said "You mean that spell you used on that doll of yours?"

Twilight nodded. Futtershy said "Of course we remember that spell. What made you think we wouldn't?"

They saw some light coming over the horizon. Twilight then explained that the spell had affected them before she got over to the picnic. And how angry the princess was afterwards. She then explained that she ran away afterwards. But before she could finish she doubled over in searing pain. She heard a familiar voice saying "You must remember."

Twilight saw images. Images of her helping out Princess Luna on nightmare night. Images of her brother and foalsitter getting married. Images of all the wonderful times she would had...No she had spent with her friends. The other 5 ponies were also seeing those images. They then fainted afterwards.

??? ??:00

The Bearers of the Elements of Harmony had woken up in a white void of sorts. They has stood up. Twilight said "Where are we?"

Rarity said "I don't know, ugh my head."

The ponies were feeling some sort of headache. The void around them turned into a dark meadow set in night. They saw the sun rising.

Twilight saw a figure in the direction of the day star. She recognized the figure as memories were returning to them. She said "Princess?"

The group went over the the figure and saw that indeed it was Princess Celestia. the white alicorn said "Hello again my little ponies. How are your travels?"

Twilight remembered about the madman and his box and another universe. Then she realized something. She said "Where are we?"

Celestia said "You were trapped inside a parallel universe each. Something had happened to Equestria."

Twilight said "We know. The Silence."

Rainbow Dash said "So where are we now?"

The sun princess said "You are now in a place inside a void between world. I've set up this place so that I can help you return."

"I don't get it." Pinkie said.

Twilight said "Pinkie we are in a different universe. I think that fortune teller had something to do with it."

Applejack said "I knew that Apate character couldn't be trusted."

A doorway had appeared to the left of the ponies and Celestia said "You and the other survivors must find a way to restore Equestria and the other worlds."

Twilight said "But what about you?"

Celestia said "I'm afraid I have to stay here and make sure the souls trapped in the chronosteel are stabilized."

Twilight said "I understand. Good luck princess." A tear had escape her eye. She wasn't sure when or if she would see her mentor again.

"Good luck my little ponies." Celestia said. The bearers of the Elements entered the door to their left and afterwards the door disappeared into light.

Atlantis 1:45 PM

The Doctor saw the chronosteel's light fade into more usual levels. The capsules had opened as the mist inside transformed back into the ponies. The Doctor was glad that worked. He said "You're back."

The 6 ponies were disoriented. Twilight said "Doctor, what happened?"

Everyone noticed 6 peculiar beetles lying on the ground dead. He examined them with his sonic screwdriver and said "Time Beetles."

The ponies were confused. Rarity was a little grossed out. The Doctor said "Time Beetles are a unusual lot. They feed on events in time, usually changing it in the process. The universe can work around these changes if it was small enough but in your case they had to create parallel worlds for you." He straitened his bow tie and said "The last time this had happened also included a false fortuneteller. I'm pretty sure that's not a coincidence."

"Doctor did you find any chronosteel while we were..." Twilight said.

"Away?" The Doctor said "Yes in fact I did." He held up the sack. He thought abut the guy who gave him the sack. He wondered, how did he know who he was, where did he find the chronosteel. he said "We should go back to the TARDIS."

The ponies agreed. They met up with the rest of the group and returned to the TARDIS.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor went to the dwarf star alloyed room after explaining about Donna Noble and opened the sack the chronosteel contained within flew out to take their place. The sign for Aquarius (♒) glowed violet and the needle in the Antikythera mechanism pointed to Pieces (♓)

Twilight and her friends came in. The purple unicorn said "How much do we have left?"

The Doctor said "I don't know It appears that I've miscalculated somewhere. I estimate that we have 9 pieces left however."

"We see thank you Doctor." Fluttershy said before catching herself.

"You're wel- what did you say [we?]" The Doctor said. Although using the we to refer to a group is usual the context made it seem off somehow.

'Twilight what's going on?' Applejack thought.

'I don't know.' Twilight said.

The group exited the room. The Doctor checked his tarot cards on the way and saw Judgment as the front card. The forth who know what cards that foreshadow what's to come, with the other3 being the Hanged Man, The 10 of swords, and Death.

Rory and Amy were tending to the unconscious Donna when the Doctor and 6 ponies went over and said "Rory something's wrong."

Atlantis 5:00 PM

the man who gave the Doctor his sack of chronosteel revealed himself to be Hades. He went to Find Athena and Aphrodite. But when he got there...

"No!" Hades said. He saw multiple Silence with Trixie and the machine. Max Zeus was with them. He said "Where is Hermes?"

Hades saw several silents vanish with Athena and Aphrodite. He said "What do you want Zeus?"

Several Silents had grabbed Hades and Max said "I want you to know that I still need you and the other Olympians together. Although your namesake never ascended to the glorious mountain. He was still important to Zeus and the others Just as you are important to me and my plans. I need some to communicate with the dead."

Hades said "You want to bring back Gallifrey? Are you insane?"

Max said "No I'm not. I will rue the universe with the help of the Time Lords."

Hades said "How can you even bring them back. The Time War was time locked and the destruction of the planet with it!"

Max said "But time can be rewritten. And the entire multiverse had been reborn like a phoenix through the fire and flames."

The Silents had vanished with Hades and Max Zeus. Trixie screamed as she activated the spell and stopped time. Silence had fell. The Silents returned after the casting to pick up the blue unicorn.

Alpherg ♓ Nightmare's Magic

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was with Amy, Rory, River, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Applejack. The Doctor and Rory were checking the mares for anything unusual.

The Doctor said "Well they seem physically fine. However..."

The ponies said in unison "Yes?"

The Doctor said "Well I think your telepathic link is strengthening at a rapid pace. If left unchecked you would wind up sharing all your thoughts."

"What!?" the bearers yelled.

"You already seem to share the same voice." the Doctor said. "I have an idea however." He went back to the the control room. When he returned he said "Put these on." As he handed out 6 identical rings. the 6 ponies did as they were told and put the rings on their necks.

Rarity said "Well this certainly clashes with my coat."

The other ponies felt their telepathy weakening to prior levels. Twilight said "Thank you Doctor."

"You're welcome. Now then as long as you keep these on the telepathy will not grow stronger." The Doctor said. He then looked at Rarity and said "And it's far better then the alternative."

"What alternative?" Rarity said.

The Doctor said "Never mind."

Rose entered and said "I think we should return Donna back home." Holding her shrunken TARDIS.

The Doctor said "Good idea."

Rose took Donna to another room. Homonoia watched her from a distance and looked at the ponies. The blue earth pony thought 'We can't proceed with those bracelets on them'.

Cheerilee said "Um what are you doing?"

Homonoia looked and saw the schoolteacher. She said "Just checking up on things."

Cheerilee was feeling a little suspicious. Homonoia said "Well gotta go now. Bye." and left. River Song noticed the blue pony gallop past her and decided to tell the Doctor.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor had looked at his Tarot cards, shuffled them and placed the top 4 cards face down. The first card he flipped was Judgement. The next card was the King of Wands. the card after that was Death the Doctor said "I'm getting sick of that card. It doesn't even stand for actual death." The last card was the Moon.

River entered and said "Doctor?"

"Yes River?" The Time Lord said.

"Do you think it is wise to let Homonoia in the TARDIS?"

"Of course. I can't leave a pony behind, not while their world is like this." The Doctor was referring to Equestria being trapped in time and the chonosteel made from the souls of it's residence.

"Good point." River said. "I just can't help but feel something's off with her." She then left the room. He saw Rose return after wards. the Doctor said "So how was the trip?"

"It went great." Rose said. "Where's River?"

The Doctor said "She went to the library."

"I see. Later." Rose took her now shrunken TARDIS and left.

TARDIS ??:00

Toola Roola, Starsong, Flitter and Cloudchaser were chatting when Cheerilee came in and said "Have any of you seen Homonoia?"

The multicolored maned unicorn said "No, why do you ask?"

The schoolteacher said "No reason."

The violet pegasus said "Are you sure?"

Cheerilee said "Well..." Just then she saw Homonoia enter the room.

The blue earth pony said "Hello everypony."

Cheerilee looked at her. The robotic pony saw suspicion in the schoolteacher's eyes. Minty and Ditzy went in another way and saw the blue earth pony. The atmosphere in here was filled with tension.

Flitter said "maybe it's time to rest?"

Cloudchaser agreed and the twins went to their beds. The other ponies soon followed. Cheerilee gave a glare and said "If you anything to my friends, my students, or their friends..." And left the room.

??? ??:00

Twilight Sparkle had found herself inside a spaceship. A nearby said "108 still points." She said "Where am I?" She saw that she was wearing her tiara. "This can't be right." She saw a clone of her in the distance and chased after her. Cherry blossoms rained down from the ceiling despite any trees.

She ran past a sign that said "88 screaming stars." and continued chasing her clone. She said "What in the world.

Eventually she found herself in front of a door. The clone of her had vanished. The Door said "Another Harmony." And had a big eye on it. The purple unicorn saw the door open before her eyes and a bright light engulf her.

She found herself inside a pitch black void. She used her horn to illuminate the darkness and wandered around. She said "Hello? Anyone there?" Eventually she saw her friends lying down in the ground. Like Twilight they were wearing their Elements of Harmony. She tried to wake them up but they wouldn't move an inch. She felt something cold from their bodies...

"Oh no." Twilight said. They were dead. She saw her doppelganger a few feet away from them. She too was dead. "No." She saw the corpses turn into lights and the light flew away. Twilight noticed her body had been doing the same.

She looked at the corpses of her fallen friends and said "At least we're going down together." As she collapsed. The lights had fully replaced the bodies.

TARDIS ??:00

Twilight had just woken up from her nightmare. She looked at her bracelet and thought 'Oh thank Celestia.' She went out to find her friends.

They were in the library Twilight explained her nightmare to them.

Rarity thought 'Well that's 6 for 6. Do you think these nightmares mean anything?'

Applejack thought 'There's too much similarities for it to be a coincidence.'

Pinkie Pie thought 'You sure?'

Rainbow Dash thought 'We find ourselves in a spaceship, chase copies of ourselves to an unusual room, and find our friends dead are about to be dead.' She then deadpanned 'Yeah it's a coincidence.'

Fluttershy 'But why us?'

Pinkie thought 'Do you think this has something to do with our telepathy?'

Twilight thought 'There may be a connection.' She then said "Listen, In the event we do not survive this. I just want to say Thank you for your friendship. I've been able to learn so much thanks to you."

Applejack said "Um Twi, you okay?"

Twilight continued "I'm fine. I just want to know that no matter what happens, be it death or not. I just want you to know that..." She shed a tear.

Rainbow Dash said "We know and we're ready to go there if that ever comes right guys?"

The other 4 ponies nodded. They knew that no matter what awaits them they are ready to go together and face the future. They were ready to go the depths of hell itself if that's what it takes.

The TARDIS was about to land.

Simmah ♓ A Lost Friend

Babylon 2:00 PM 323 BC

The TARDIS had landed inside a a street corner. The Doctor stepped out and noticed the surroundings. The other companions also steeped out. The Doctor said "Well this is interesting."

Twilight said "Doctor where-- I mean when are we?"

The Doctor said "Babylon circa the rule of Alexander III The Great."

River said "So the chronosteel in inside the past huh?"

The Doctor nodded. He said "Be careful and stick to the shadows." The group the split up to look for the chronosteel. The Doctor went with Rory and Amy, The bearers of the Elements went in their own group, Homonoia followed them soon after and River then followed Homonoia with Dizty Minty and later Cheerilee, Toola Roola and Starsong went with the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Flitter, and Cloudchaser, and Lyra and Bonbon went alone.

The Bearers had noticed a huge tower in the background as well as some gardens, high up in the sky. The 6 mares ascended the stairs until they saw a monolithic door. Twilight thought 'Well there's no one there right now.'

Pinkie Pie thought 'Ooh ooh we should definitely go there.'

Rarity thought 'Why darling? This garden looks nice but I doubt that the chronosteel will be there.' She then saw Pinkie's ears' flopping.

Pinkie's eye's began to flutter and her knees twitched afterwards. She thought 'Get away.' The large door began to open. The ponies had backed up far enough to avoid the stone doors' slamming them into the wall.

Applejack thought 'What in tarnation?'

Fluttershy thought 'Maybe we should not go in after all.'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Yeah and miss out on exploring this? It'll be just like in Daring Do! I can't miss something like that!

'Rainbow's right.' Twilight thought. 'This thing opened for a reason. It wouldn't hurt to check.'

The 6 ponies entered the door. Unaware that Homonoia had been staking them the entire time. "Maybe now the time to get these bracelets off them and continue the plan." She smirked. She entered the large building as it began to close. The building began to vanish.

Babylon 3:00 PM

The Doctor, Amy, Rory and Rose began exploring the place in hopes of finding the chronosteel.

Amy said "Doctor?"

"Yes Pond?" The Doctor said.

"How long has it been?" Amy said. "How long has it been since we've started this [trip]?"

"I dunno, a few months perhaps?" The Doctor said.

Amy said "Yeah that's what I've thought." Amy was struggling with a tough decision. She knew that her husband had wanted children ever since he was a child. But the one they had , they didn't get to raise and worse since her kidnapping at Demon's Run she can give birth no more. She didn't know what to do, what to say. She thought the trip would help take her mind off it.

The group went ahead to look for the chronosteel.

Elsewhere several solders said "Sire someone wants to talk with you."

A man with a crown and sword said "What is it? Can't you see I'm still planning Hephaestion's funeral? Bring them in."

A woman with an eye patch accompanied with several aliens came in and the woman said "King Alexander the Great I assume?"

Babylon 3:30 PM

River Song, Ditzy, Minty and Cheerilee went up the stairs of a garden. River said "So why are you here?"

Cheerilee said "I don't know. But i don't trust that Homonoia one minuet."

"Welcome to our world." Minty said.

The group went to the peak of the stairs but saw nothing there. The group was baffled. They were sure that Homonoia was there, but she was nowhere to be seen.

River said "Lovely." The group was about to check the top of the garden but Ditzy bumped into an invisible wall of sorts.

The gray pegasus said "Huh?" She began tapping the wall again.

The other 3 noticed. River said "Stand back." And began to shoot the wall of invisibility with her blaster. She said "We need to find the Doctor. You three stay here and keep an eye out for anything suspicious." and then left to find the Doctor's group.

Vernalis ♓ The Hidden Temple

Babylon 4:00 PM 323 BC

The Doctor and his group were still looking for the chronosteel in a bazaar when River Song entered and said "Doctor, there's something you have to see."

The Doctor said "What is it River?"

"Follow me." River then led The Doctor, Rose, Amy and Rory to the garden.

Meanwhile at the wall at the garden. Ditzy, Minty and Cheerilee were waiting for River. Lyra and Bonbon were passing by. Lyra said "What are you doing?"

Minty said "Waiting for The Doctor."

"Why?" Bonbon said.

Ditzy said "There's an invisible wall here."

The two mares looked at the grey pegasus and chuckled. Bonbon trotted forward while saying "You guys are ridiculous. I'm sure there's no wall here. Invisible or oth--" She bumped into the wall. "Ow. Okay I retract my case. Now tell me where's the mime?"

Cheerilee said "There's no mime so far. I think Twilight and her friends went in there however."

Lyra said "And you know this how?"

Ditzy said "Because were were following Homonoia who was following them. She vanished when we got to the top of the stairs."

Lyra and Bonbon were confused.

Cheerilee said "What are you doing here?"

Bonbon said "We heard about this place and thought a visit there would be romantic."

Cheerilee said "Uh-huh. Well I should get the others." She went to get her friends.

??? 4:01 PM

'This place sure is...spooky' Fluttershy thought.

'Well it is a hidden tomb, ugh temple, whatever.' Rainbow Dash thought.

The bearers of the Elements of Harmony were trying to explore the underground tomb. The group went to a passage that had a slope at one end.

Rarity thought 'This bracelet getting itchy. Are you sure we can't take this thing off?'

Applejack thought 'Not even you would want to share your secrets right?' The group knew that their mind would be merged together if these bracelets are forced off.

Twilight thought 'Rarity, can you use your gem-finding spell to find a path?"

Rarity thought 'I can try but my spells range is rather short darling. Pus I only used it on gems.'

Pinkie thought 'Maybe Twilight can use the spell?'

Twilight thought 'Well I can try.' She used Rarity's spell and saw some glowing spheres beyond the walls. She thought 'I think I found something.' and stepped on a stone. they heard something rolling down.

Rainbow Dash looked at the slope and said "Run. There's a boulder coming."

Pinkie Pie said "What makes you think that?" Unaware that her tail's twitching again.

Rainbow said "This kind of thing always happens in temples and tombs and pyramids. Go Now!"

"Oh." Pinkies said. She and the other saw her twitching tail and shortly afterwards a boulder large enough to flatten the 6 of them was rolling down the slope. The ponies galloped down the hallway. There are walls on both sides keeping the boulder from falling off. The ponies were being chased away from the rolling stone.

Just then Homonoia entered the hall. She scanned for the bearers and said "Well. This is interesting." Noting the boulder's path. "SCANNING MEMORY OF RAINBOW DASH." She looked through her database and said "A bookworm of action/adventure huh? somehow unsurprising." She followed the boulder's path.

Babylon 4:05 PM

Korvarian and the Silents were with Alexander the Great. The ruler said "Visitor you are not of this world I can tell by your companions."

Korvarian said "I never said I was. I have a proposition for you. help me enter the hidden temple of the Hanging Gardens.

Alexander said "You dare to ask for my help in destroying one of my colonies. I can see it in your eyes. You wish to bring havoc and disaster to my kingdom, my world. Well I'll have none of it."

Korvarian said "Do you know what the lights in the sky are?"

Alexander said "What are you babbling at woman? The lights in the sky are stars."

Korvarian said "Most of them yes. But some of them are planets, worlds and kingdoms. Look to your kingdom and tell me: Have you really conquered anything of value. Other empires, hidden amongst the stars and scattered through all time. I have seen and heard legends of people more ruthless than you so-called descendant of Zeus. Let em tell you you area lot more humble than that gut who calls himself Zeus."

Alexander said "You're acquainted with Zeus? No I can tell you have the stench of the titans and the tongue of a siren." he looked away from the Silents and to as muck of his kingdom as possible.

"Perhaps." Korvarian said "But remember, there are other worlds out there. I'll ask you again later. But I have more pressing matters. In the meantime ask your self. Have you even conquered anything worth while? Goodbye Alexander." She and the Silents then vanished.

An adviser said "Sire. What happened?"

Alexander the stared at a map of his kingdom. He saw his home of Macedon. He saw the rewards of his conquests. His victories rose as his kingdom expanded into country after country. He said "There are so many worlds and I have not yet conquered one." He wept at that fact and the loss of his friend and was about to leave.

He felt something urging him not to trust someone, 'But who?' he thought. He said "Have some guards meet me at the Hanging Gardens." and left.

??? 4:08 PM

Twilight and er friends were trying to evade the giant boulder chasing them. They saw that a huge chasm was coming. Rainbow Dash thought 'Great! I can't carry you over that far.' By that point they passed a doorway without.

Twilight thought 'I have an idea just keep running.'

They were running out of ground they saw spike in the chasm and a great abyss between the spikes. Pinkie and Fluttershy were scared. Twilight thought 'I hope this works.' They were at the edge when Twilight thought 'JUMP!'

The 5 ponies jumped into the gap. Twilight's horn started to glow. The boulder just fell off the edge. The ponies however were too far for it to hit them and instead the rock fell into the black abyss. The ponies sans dash were about to fall when they saw a pink platform below them.

The other ponies were surprised. Pinkie said "Wow Twilight how did you do that?"

Twilight said "I improvised with the force-field spell. To be honest I almost thought that the barrier would miss."

Rainbow Dash noticed a large door to their right and said "Over there." and pointed to the door.

Twilight levitated the barrier platform with them on it to solid ground. There they jumped to a brick floor as the barrier vanished. Twilight was feeling a little tired. Applejack said "How are we gonna open this door?"

Fluttershy, Rarity, and Pinkie were clueless and Rainbow Dash was attaching the door several times. But it won't budge.

Rainbow Dash thought 'Any ideas?'

'Ooh, Ooh. I know!' Pinkie thought. The pink earth pony went over to the large door, rubbed her fore-hooves together and said "Open Sesame!" The Door didn't budge. "No? How 'bout Open Sesame Street?" Rainbow Dash put her hoof on her face as the door didn't move again. Pinkie Pie tried again and said "Swordfish? Pickle barrel?" she chucked a bit and said "I like those words. Pickle Barrel." She continued to laugh as the door began budging. Her ears began to flop and her eyes were blinking as her knees started twitching. All without Pinkie noticing.

Rainbow Dash thought 'Anypony else want to try?'

Twilight thought 'Wait Look.' And pointed tot he opening door. Pinkie was still laughing and making jokes the entire time and her Pinkie sense was warning of the door. The doors were still opening. The rainbow maned pegasus' jaw dropped on the floor.

Pinkie noticed her Pinkie sense again and got out of the way. She said "I knew it was [Swordfish.] Well this place won't explore itself. lalalalala..." As she entered the door. The other ponies followed.

Meanwhile Homonois was still following the pathway. The blue earth pony noticed a door and opened it. She saw a hidden passageway. She said "Convenient, if you're fast enough to open it before the boulder comes." She entered the passageway.

Babylon 4:10 PM

Toola Roola, Starsong, Cloudchaser, and Flitter were busy exploring the town when Cheerilee came by and said "There you are. Where are the fillies?"

Starsong said "Umm." She pointed to the Crusaders being tangled up in rope. Several guards had noticed. They then saw the 5 older mares and their unusual colors. The Guards were baffled. They decided to try to capture the colored horses. the ponies in turn decided to flee with the fillies.

The 8 ponies rain over town while the guards were chasing them and babbling about wild horses. Eventually they passed the Doctor's group and hid. The guards went up to Rory and said "You there."

Rory said "Me?" and pointed to himself.

Rose and River went to see what the ponies were doing while The Doctor, Amy and Rory were busy with the guards. River asked Toola Roola to paint something.

One of them said "We're looking for wild horses. About yea tall and oddly colored. Some looked like the pegasus and unicorn of yore."

Amy lied "Oh well we've haven't seen them here."

The guards noticed their clothing and said "Who are you and where are you from?"

The Doctor said "I hail from a faraway land."

"What land?" A guard asked The Doctor.

"It's called Gallifrey. Incredibly far way. Probably never heard of it." The Doctor said.

"If it's as far as you claim then how did you get here." The other guard said.

River emerged with some lipstick on and said "I've had enough of this rubbish." She then went tot he guards and kissed them. The guards appeared a little dazed afterwards. She said "The hallucinogenic lipstick won't last long. I suggest we go while we still can." The The Doctor's group then left while the guards were asking Toola Roola painting questions.

Later, the group went to the Hanging Garden where they saw Minty, Ditzy Doo, Lyra, and Bonbon. The Doctor said "What are you trying to show me River?"

River went up to the wall and shot it with her blaster. The blasted revealed a scorched part of the door before that part vanished. Bonbon said "Were that mimes at this time? 'cause whoever did this did a real good job on the invisible box act."

The Doctor examined the wall and said "This place is not form earth. How did you find this?"

Cheerilee said "We were following Homonoia as she followed Twilight and her friends. The 7 of them vanished when we got to the top of the stairs."

Flitter said "Why were you following them?"

Cheerilee said "I just don't trust her. There's something off about that pony."

The Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to find a hidden control panel. He then took the invisible panel off. There he saw wires inside a mix of metal and stone. He said "Well the camouflage wouldn't work in wires hmm." He began tinkering with the wiring and said "A Cloaking device, definitely not from earth."

When The Doctor was finished the temple became visible and the doors opened. Cheerilee said "You think they could be there?"

"Seems likely. But how and why?" The Doctor said. The group went into look for the missing ponies. and the Doors closed behind them.

Later Alexander and several guardsmen had ascended the Hanging Gardens. They noticed the temple and a guard said "That's wasn't there before."

Alexander said "Find a way into the temple."

"Yes sire." The doors began to opened as the guards approached. and Alexander began to proceed in the temple.

Torcularis ♓ Great Overture

??? ??:00

Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack and Fluttershy were traversing the temple. Twilight thought 'Be on your guard.'

Rainbow noticed some small dots on the walls and thought 'Hold it!'

Rarity said 'What are you doing Rainbow?'

The rainbow maned pegasus thought 'See these holes on the walls?' As she pointed to the dots. 'I'm sure the second we try to pass them they will shoot arrows or something.'

Pinkie thought 'Well wasn't the last trap caused by some hidden switch or something?'

Fluttershy looked around and thought 'There no other way!'

Applejack thought 'Guess we have to backtrack. Come on y'all.' She steeped on a switch and the path behind them closed. They now have no way but to go ahead. Applejack looked down and saw the switch 'Heh-heh oops.'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Great.' She looked at the dotted walls and thought 'Make sure to dodge the holes alright?'

The other ponies nodded. They went forward but then...

A bright red beam emerged from one of the holes and missed the ponies. Rainbow Dash thought 'Lasers this wasn't in any of my books.'

Twilight thought 'Did you read the one about crystal skulls?'

Rainbow thought 'No, not yet.'

The holes were now shooting out lasers to the opposite wall. The ponies ran forward evading the lasers. Rainbow Dash was flying high. Twilight tried to cast a barrier but the laser were shooting too fast. She then tried to teleport to the other side but then she saw her friends were still trying to dodge the lasers. Rainbow flew to get Fluttershy out of the lasers while Twilight teleported to save Rarity.

By the time the pegasi and unicorns were safe in front of a wall, the lasers were growing in diameter and began shooting all at once. Each beam was wider then the last. They were soon too big for Twilight's teleport spell to be successfully pulled off with ether her, Applejack or Pinkie unharmed. The earth ponies were evading the growing lasers but they were unable to reach the other side.

Rainbow Dash then decided to flying the lasers and save the remaining two ponies. She managed to get Pinkie Pie out before the lasers could hit her. Applejack however was still evading the beams kicking a wall with enough force to have the lasers aiming at the floor. Rainbow had managed to get to her and she said "Hold on!" She grabbed the farm pony by the hoof and flew as fast as she can. The orange mare galloped to keep up with her as they tried to avoid the horizontal and diagonal lasers.

The beams were now large enough to engulf both ponies in a single beam. Rainbow Dash and Applejack have little room to dodge the beams. The stunt-mare took some Rope and tied it to apple farmer. By this point all the lasers were charging up. Applejack said "Rainbow what are you doing?"

Rainbow Dash said "I won't let you die here!" When she finished tying up Applejack she bit the other end of the rope and threw the farm mare to her friends. Twilight saw what Rainbow was doing and made a soft surface for her to land on. She lat go of the rope and sent the orange earth pony flying away from the lasers and close to her friends. Dash then flew as fast as she could.

The beams finished charging. Rainbow was about to make it but the beams shot out all at once and hit her leg before she made it past them. Twilight and Fluttershy ended to the wound. Pinkie's ears were flopping, her eyes fluttered and her knees twitched. The wall behind them was lifting revealing a pathway.

"Rainbow are you okay?" Fluttershy said.

'I'm fine Fluttershy.' Rainbow Dash said. She trued standing up but her hind leg was unable to balance without Rainbow feeling serious pain. 'I can still fly.' She said as she lifted herself with her wings. They went ahead to find the thing Twilight saw earlier.

??? ??:00

The Doctor's group were looking inside the hidden temple. Rose said "Doctor what is this place?"

The Doctor responded "A spaceship with a cloaking device outside and a perception filter inside."

River Song looked at the ponies with them. She thought 'You snog two hapless city guards and next thing you know you have horses explaining your reasons.'

Toola Roola said to Cheerilee "Do you think their going to be alright?"

"I hope so Toola Roola, I hope so." They saw The Cutie Mark Crusaders talking with Starsong.

The group eventually found a slope nearby. Rory said "Where's the boulder?"

The Doctor looked at the path and said "It already rolled down Rory." The Doctor knew that the ponies have been here. He also noticed something else. "We're being followed." And went to see just whom was trailing them.

??? ??:00

Alexander the Great with 11 guards were exporting the temple, looking for anything suspicious. The King said "I will scout ahead." and left his guards.

Eventually the king of Macedon heard some screams. He saw a man with strange cloth on him. The man noticed him and said "So you're the one who followed us."

Alexander said "I am Alexander III, Alexander the Great, King of Macedon and ruler of all within my domain. And what is your name stranger?"

The Doctor lied "John Smith." he then said "My friends call me the Doctor. In fact everyone calls me the Doctor."

Alexander said "I had a strange felling to watch for anything suspicious. Tell me Doctor why I should let you live."

The Doctor said "I don't know. I see many reasons for me to die." Just then they heard screams in the distance. Alex said "My men!" As he and The Doctor returned to where Alexander was.

The Doctor's group heard the screams as well. River said "Oh dear. I'll go see where the Doctor went. You go ahead." And went to find the Doctor. The rest of the group went to find the ponies.

Back with The Doctor and Alexander. They have seen all of the guard that went with Alexander had been dead. Burnt to a crisp by lightning. Alex said "By Zeus why were my guards struck down?"

The Doctor said "Zeus wouldn't sent his bolts indoors without frying the place." He noticed some shadows. "But I know people that would."

??? ??:00

Twilight's group was still looking for the spheres. Rarity saw several gems and started looking at them. Rarity saw a ruby, emerald, sapphire, turquoise, topaz, citrine and amethyst on several recesses on a wall and thought 'They're beautiful.'

Pinkie said "What's beautiful?" And saw the gem. Rarity forgot that the other 5 can some of her thoughts. She started levitating the 7 gems and the group moved on.

??? ??:00

The Doctor and Alexander had some tally marks on their arm. Alexander was befuddled. he said "Doctor what sort of trickery is this?"

The Doctor explained about the Silents and three of their abilities. First their ability to make people forget ever meeting them. Then that they can make others do what the last suggestion or command was after forgetting them. Last he explained that the aliens can use lightning and that it was them who might have killed his guards.

Alex began to cough. The Doctor said "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine Doctor." Alex said. River came onto the scene. She said "Doctor."

The Doctor said "I'm fine River. Have you met King Alexander?"

River then saw the king and that their arms were marked. She saw the corpses nearby. The Doctor said "We need to go. The Silents are here." The trio went to find the others.

??? ??:00

Rarity was was busy admiring her 7 gemstones she was lifting. She wondered what she could do with them. She arranged for them in a sort of rainbow pattern.

The group had made it to some sort of statue. There were several recesses in place of the nose, eyes, ears, and two holes where his mouth should be. A giant U-shaped chasm separated the statue from the rest of the room. The white unicorn noticed that the gems she was levitating were shaped oddly.

Twilight thought 'There's no way through.'

Rainbow Dash noticed Rarity's gems. She said "Where did you find these gemstones?"

Rarity said "I found them." She looked at the statue and thought 'And it looks like I won't be keeping them long. Twilight can you levitate me? I've an idea.'

Twilight thought 'I can try.' The purple mare levitated Rarity up the the statue's face.

Rarity noticed that emerald and ruby looked a lot like eyeballs and placed them in the eye sockets. She said "Okay than darling a little lower." She then placed the turquoise in the recess in the center of the statue's face and then placed the sapphire and citrine gems in the mouth. Rarity felt a little sorrowful about losing these gems but she know that her friends and their mission are more important then her fashion. She had the topaz and amethyst left. She said "Twilight please levitate me to the left side of the statue."

"Okay Rarity." Twilight said. Her spell was about to fade soon.

Rarity placed the topaz on the left recess and said "Now the other side." Twilight levitated Rarity to the right side of the statue and said "Good bye little amethyst. I hardly knew ye." and placed the yellow stone in the remaining socket.

She said "Okay I'm done."

Twilight was ready to levitate Rarity back to the floor but the spell broke midway. Rarity fell. Fluttershy saw this and flew to her friend. She caught the dressmaker just as she was about to hit the ground. and flew her the rest of the way.

Twilight said "Sorry about that Guess that platform took a lot out of me."

Rarity said "It's okay darling." She looked at the statue and thought 'In hindsight I probably should have just levitated the gems.'

Fluttershy knew Rarity better than anypony, considering their weekly spa treatments. The statue levitated into the chasm and revealed a open path. The statue then turned sideways and fell into the chasm to bridge the gap.

The ponies went ahead, feeling closer to their goal.

Alrescha ♓ End of the Road

??? ??:00

Hermes had teleported to a spaceship somewhere. The machine heard battle cries of some sort.

"Sontar-HA! Sontar-HA! Sontar-HA!"

Hermes had found itself an a Sontaren warship. The Sontarens noticed the machine and pointed their weapons. They were prepared to fire. The machine said "Help."

One Sontaren said "Help?"

"Help...Earth." The teleportation that he used had nearly broke his vocal circuits.

"Why should we help the Earth huh?" Another Sontaren said.

"Help...Doctor."

the aliens laughed and let a shot out. "The Doctor is dead."

"War...coming...Time Lords...returning...Silence..." The machine collapsed on the ground.

"War?" The first Sontaren said.

The General said "Men set coordinates for earth. We must see what kind of war this machine warned us about."

The Sontarens set their course for earth. The cries of "Sontar-HA!" resonated across the warship. Hermes Whispered "Activate emergency code 1167B."

??? ??:00

The 6 ponies were still exploring the tomb. They came across another statue. The statue said "Why are you here?"

Applejack said "Beg pardon?"

The statue said "I must know why you are here. If you speak the truth I will let you pass. Why are you here on this piece of existence?"

Twilight thought 'Applejack I think you should handle this one.'

Applejack thought 'But why Twilight?'

Twilight thought 'I don't know. But I think that this place seems connected to us somehow.'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Wait, what?' The other 3 were similarly confused.

Applejack thought 'Alright sugarcube. Ah'll do it.' She stepped forward to the statue and said "What is it you want to know?"

"What were you doing in this universe? Why are you here?" The statue said.

Applejack said "Alright then. We were here because we lost our home. Several aliens had took it and stopped time there. We wound up traveling with an unusual man with a blue box inside a universe similar to or home in some respects but different in others."

Applejack surprised herself a little bit. She continued "We think that a peculiar set of items would help us return to our home and return it back to normal. We already gathered up the rest of those items. We just need what's in this place."

The statue said "And from where do you come from?"

"Equestria." The orange mare said.

The statue was glowing for several moments, for which it was scanning Applejack. Afterwards the statue said "You speak the truth. Go, the chronosteel awaits you."

The statue sunk into the floor and reveal a path. The ponies were relieved.

Twilight pondered 'First Me, then Pinkie, then Rainbow, then Rarity, now Applejack. That leaves...' The purple mare looked to Fluttershy. She then thought about the Elements of Harmony. The bearers moved forward.

??? ??:00

The Doctor, River Song and Alexander III were looking for the others. They saw an open door. River said "Think they might be there?"

"Someone is." The Doctor said. The trio entered the hallway.

Alexander said "Doctor, you've been to other worlds right?"

The Doctor said "Sure. I've been to tons of worlds."

"Did you conquer any?" Alex said.

"No. I'm a traveler, not an emperor." The Doctor said. The group continued down the hall.

Meanwhile Amy's group had found a hidden pathway in one of the rooms. There were small holes and singed walls.

Rory pondered "What are lasers doing in a place like this?" forgetting the fact that this ship was only masquerading as a hidden tomb.

They took the left pathway. Cheerilee and Starsong had noticed some movement form the shadows...

??? ??:00

Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack and Fluttershy were in another chamber. They triggered a trap. The wall grew spikes and were closing in on them. There were spikes on the ceiling as well. Quicksand was pouring in through walls and there were stone fish swimming in the sand.

Rainbow Dash said "Oh come on!" The sand had flooded the room. The stone fish looked wounded. Several were missing their fins, others were swimming without a tail, a feat that baffled the ponies. The fish were also coated in scales.

Twilight used her magic to stop the walls and ceiling but they were still moving and the ponies were still sinking. Fluttershy was the first to sink. She held her breath as she swam for a solution. Rainbow Dash flew to avoid the sand and fish. The other 4 mares were sinking like stones. Fluttershy noticed the wounds on some of the fish.

The other 5 ponies were trying to keep as much air in as they cam but the sand-sea rose to the point that the spiked ceiling were 5 feet away. The walls were still closing in, waiting to skewer and crush those trapped in this room.

'Fluttershy!' Rainbow Dash yelled as she flew down. She could not see the yellow pegasus anywhere here.

Meanwhile under the sand's surface Fluttershy went to one of the fish and 'You're hurt aren't you?'

She then thought saw some stones on the floor of the water. She surfaced and said "I need help." She began coughing up some sand, took a deep breath and dove again. The other 5 ponies did the same for the sand soon filled up the room.

Once under the sand's surface Twilight thought 'What's going on?'

'Those fish,' thought Fluttershy. 'They look hurt.' She pointed to the stone fish who looked more eroded by the second. They were in pain. The ponies saw several stone that looked like they could replace the missing scales on the floor.

The 6 ponies swam to the bottom and began to applying the scales to the fish. Suddenly the walls stopped as they "fixed" one of the fish. Twilight and Fluttershy fix several more fish in this school and the walls began to retract back to their original positions. The ponies were swinnign around picking up the loose scales from the floor and attaching them to the fish. With every fish that was restored the walls were going backwards even more.

The sand begun sinking as well. The school of petrified fish was becoming restored fish by fish, piece by piece, scale by scale.

They have finished with the last one. the school of fish was restored. The sand began to empty out of the room at an incredible rate. The fish were returning back to their homes. Eventually the sand was gone and a wall had an opening appear.

The ponies were gasping for air. Pinkie thought 'Wow for a moment I thought we were not gonna make it there. Can you believe how depressing that would be?'

'We get it.' Rainbow thought. The ponies noticed the door and went in.

??? ??:00

Homonoia was inside a chamber with something in the center. She said "Any minuet now."

Meanwhile the Doctor, River, and Alexander were still traveling the hallway. The Doctor was a little curious he said "Why did you want to conquer the worlds Alex?"

The king of Macedon said "I want to unite the world Doctor. I believe in Homonoia."

"Homonoia?" River said. remembering the blue earth pony going by that name.

"Unity. A union of hearts, being one mind together." Alexander said.

"Worse men than you have tried to take over the world." River deadpanned.

The Doctor knew that this was a few months before Alexander's death. He said "Why is it called Homonoia?"

Alex said "For the goddess of concord and unity of course. Why do you ask?"

The Doctor said "I have enough of stuff named for gods."

They eventually went to the end of the tunnel. There they saw Homonoia there. She said "Hello. How you've been?"

River still could not trust that blue pony. She knew that her name now holds significance. and that significance is suspect.

Shortly after the bearers of the Elements of Harmony entered the room. Twilight said "Doctor?"

The Doctor said "There you are. We've been looking everywhere in this ship for you." The Doctor then noticed something and said "And now we'll be looking all over this ship for Rose and the others."

Applejack said "Umm ship?" then thought 'That would explain the lasers.'

The group noticed the spheres in the center. They were chronosteel. The center piece was magenta with the sign and constellation for Pisces. The other pieces had the constellations Carina, Cepheus, Fornax, Horologium, Lacerta, Lepus, Pisces Austinus, and Tucana on them.

Alexander said "What in the world is that?"

The Doctor said "Blood chronosteel. An unnatural perversion of the sous trapped within and the time stream in general."

Alex then asked about the ponies but the Doctor didn't answer.

The Doctor scanned the pedestal the metal was on. He said "We must remove this metal carefully. If we disturb the pedestal it will collapse the entire temple on us."

Pinkie's tail began to twitch at that exact moment. She said "Um guys?"

The group got distracted by Pinkie's tail. Homonoia went to the chronosteel and took it off the pedestal. A pebble from the pedestal fell off. The tomb began shaking.

River said "What the hell?" She then looked at Homonoia with a bag filled by the chronosteel form the pedestal. Everyone looked at her. The blue earth pony said "Oops." Just then another door began to open. On the other side were Amy and Rory's group, marked. Rory said "Doctor we have a problem."

The Doctor deadpanned "You don't say?" The group looked at the marks. The Doctor said "We should run now." The group now reunited and with the last of the chronosteel decide to flee the collapsing ship and the evade the Silence. They took the way the Doctor, River and Alexander came in.

??? ??:00

The Doctor's group were running as fast of they can to escape the ship disguised as a temple before it collapses on them. But the Silents were everywhere trying to stop them. Fortunately, River Song and Alexander were no strangers to killing. And Twilight had a large barrier over the group to protect from falling debris.

They escaped the long hallway but they were not out of the woods yet. There were several gaps caused by the collapse. Twilight made some platforms but her strength was sapped. The group went over the platform before both they and the barrier vanished and the purple mare collapsed. Rainbow Dash carried Her the rest of the way.

Eventually they made it outside but...

"Well I see you didn't take me up on my offer."

Korvarian and several Silents have surrounded the place.

The Doctor said "What are you doing here?" There was sand flowing out from the Hanging Gardens.

"You know why I'm here. You lied to the universe Doctor." Korvarian said.

Alexander whispered "Go now I'll keep them distracted."

"The Silents will kill you." the Doctor said. "Look at them, You can't survive this."

Alex said "There is nothing impossible for he who will try Doctor. I know that you are as important to the universe as I am to my kingdom." The king drew his sword and said "Go!"

The Doctor and his group left for the TARDIS The Silents tried to stop them but they were ether killed or stopped by any of the group's members. Alex said "Now then witch. Have at ye." And began charging at the aliens. He slaughtered several aliens while the Doctor's group escapes.

Meanwhile the Silents were following them all over Babylon. The group saw the TARDIS and entered the box.

Rose River and Applejakc tried to keep the aliens at bay as they approached the TARDIS. The Doctor and Rory jury rigged something inside. The group made their way in as the TARDIS began to vanish.

The Silents were trying to break in the TARDIS. But were stopped by Rose and River's blasters and the box vanished.

Later Alexander's was wounded. He had slain over half of the aliens. The Hanging Gardens had fully collapsed. Korvarian was cross. She said "You had sealed you fate Alexander. And the fate of the Earth." with a slight sneer. "We are leaving." The Aliens left. Later Alex collapsed and was found by several guards.

A guard shouted "Sire!" And rushed him to the nearest shelter to get treated.

TARDIS ??:00

Later The Doctor's went to the dwarf-star alloyed room and let the pieces of chronosteel go there. The chronosteel in Homonoia's bag had took their place and Pisces's sign (♓) glowed a brilliant magenta. The Doctor noticed that the zodiac sign were colors in the rainbow. "Fitting he said."

He checked the Antikythera mechanism but the needled never moved. It had no reason to. The Doctor had collected all the chronosteel. The device is now just like the other Antykythera mechanisms. The Doctor left the chronosteel room.

Meanwhile The Doctor companions were having a small celebration. They had all 88 pieces of the chronosteel. Now all that's left is for the Doctor to study it and find a way to return the metal spheres to their true forms.

The Doctor took out his Tarot Cards and found that some of them had dropped out.

London 7:00 AM 9/14/2012

Martha and Mickey were in their home waiting for updates from Jack Harkness. There was a news story about all the stars disappearing.

Marhta's phone rang. She answered it and said "Hello?"

Jack was on the other side. He said "They're here!"

Later Martha and Mickey went to Jack's location. There they saw several Silents and a woman with an eye patch. Jack and Gwen along with another man were busy fighting off the aliens.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor picked up the first fallen card. The Hanged Man.

London 8:00 AM

Martha and her group were fighting off the aliens. They saw something in the sky. It was a Sontaren warship!

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor picked up the next fallen card. The 10 of swords.

London 8:01 AM

Hermes had beamed down form the war ship and started to fight the aliens. He took the wings off his shoes were being improvised as blades. Jack and his friend noticed one of them had a machine with a blue unicorn strapped to it.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor picked up the next card. Death, upside down.

London 8:05 AM

Hermes was overpowered. The Silents had taken him and vanished. The blue unicorn was screaming in pain as she cast a spell she was forced to cast over and over again for the last 107 times.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor picked up the next card. Judgement.

London 8:10 AM

The blue unicorn was ready to cast her spell. Martha, Jack, Gwen, Mickey, and Rex tried to examine her but were beamed up to the warship. The Sontarens fled Earth's atmosphere as the blue unicorn cast the spell for the last time.

Earths was trapped in one miniscule moment in time. Unmoving. Unknowing. Silent.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor picked up the last fallen card. It was upside down with "IXX" And "ǝsɹǝʌıu∩ ǝɥ⊥" Written on the lower right and top respectively. The Doctor noticed the planet depicted here. He knew it all too well. Gallifrey.

The slip with the prophecy form the Planet of Lotuses had flew out of his pocket. Most of the letters had faded, But the ones that remained left a message.

GALLIFREY WILL RISE. SILENCE WILL FALL.

Altair ♙ Medusa Cascade

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was looking at the message that said "GALLIFREY WILL RISE. SILENCE WILL FALL." He looked for the others.

meanwhile Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Applejack were in the library. They were looking at some books.

'You never told us why aw are looking for books on telepathy?' Pinkie thought.

'We need to see if there's anything that we can use to reverse it.' Twilight thought.

'Yeah we need to stop it's getting creepy.' Rainbow Dash thought.

'And these band clash with my mane.' Rarity thought.

While the 6 ponies were searching the library Homonoia was staring at them with intrust. She felt empty inside. She thought 'I need to get these inhibitors off for this plan to work.'

River Song, Ditzy, Minty, and Cheerilee were spying on the blue earth pony. Cheerilee said "What's she doing?"

Minty said "Looks like she's stalking them."

"Looks like your stalking her." Lyra and Bonbon came from behind River and the other 3.

River said "I'm certain she's up to something."

Later Amy and Rory were wondering what will they do with the chronosteel. Toola Roola was teaching a art class to the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Starsong was talking about the weather with Cloudchaser and Flitter.

Rose however was in the control room. She saw another ship near their coordinates. She went to warn the Doctor.

TARDIS ??:00

The group went to the control room after Rose warned the Doctor of the ship. The Doctor noticed that the ship's sent a message to the TARDIS. The Doctor answered with "Hello?"

The voice on the other end said "I wish to propose a truce Doctor."

The voice sounded familiar but the Doctor couldn't place it He said "A truce with whom, and why?"

A nearby screen revealed a Sontaren who said "All of reality is threatened and you may know how to stop it."

Everyone was a little surprised. The Doctor was especially shocked. The Sontarens were known only for their warfare and they were not known for making truces and alliances unless the universe was truly at stake...Or unless they owed the Doctor a favor.

"How did you get this frequency?" The Doctor said.

"We saved a few of your allied from what happened on earth." The Sontaren on screen said.

"What do you mean?" The Doctor said.

"Come aboard and we'll show you." The transmission ended.

"Doctor what's going on?" Twilight said.

"Trouble." The group decided to enter the Sontaren battleship and see what's going on. Being careful and alert. River brought some weapons in case it is a trap.

Sontaren Warship ??:00

The TARDIS had materialized inside the Warship. The Doctor was worried. Who did the Sontarens save? What happened to earth? And what forced the Sontarens to make a truce with the Doctor when most of the time they were out for his blood.

A Sontaren went to greet the group. He led them to the bridge of the warship. There he met the general of this batch of Sontarens. He said "So it is true: Disappearing planets, vanishing stars, and now the dead Doctor has been revived."

Everyone was confused. Another door opened, and Martha, Jack, Gwen, Mickey and Rex went out shocking everyone but the general.

River said "Now this will be an interesting reunion."

Martha said "Doctor we need to talk."

Sontaren Warship ??:00

Martha and the Sontaren general explained that A robot by the name of Hermes had visited her house and warned them of the Silence that what's left of Torchwood sent the robot to find help. The robot had found the Sontarens and led them here just in time to save her and her allies but afterwards something happened on earth. Time on the planet was stopped. Nothing moved everything there was still. The planet had vanished shorty afterwards.

The Doctor said "Okay that explains what happened to earth but I'm still curious about why you chose to help them."

The Sontaren general said "The robot told us to help you. A ridiculous request to say the least...until we managed to see a planet disappear before our eyes."

The Doctor thought 'Wouldn't be the first time they collaborated with others in the face of universal destruction.' He noticed Rex there and said "Who are you?"

"Rex Mathison. CIA agent." Rex said. "I've heard a lot about you Doctor."

The Doctor said "How?"

"I've worked with Torchwood before. It's a long story." Rex said.

Pinkie said "Oh really I love good stories. Stories are super duper fun." She rambled on and on. Rex didn't noticed the ponies there before.

The Doctor said "I love a good story too. Let's start with what happened before the Sonatrens abducted you."

Jack said "We already told you about the robot."

Mickey said "And time stopping on earth."

Martha said "We did see something before time came to a halt."

Pinkie said "Really what was it? Was it a huge monster terrorizing a city somewhere?"

Twilight said "Pinkie."

Rex said "A unicorn."

Applejack said "Beg pardon?"

Rex said "A unicorn, like some of your friends here. Blue color, strapped to a machine pale bur mane and tail."

Fluttershy thought 'Do you think it could be Trixie?'

Rainbow Dash thought 'Can't think of anypony else like that.'

Martha said "That's about all we remember. the next thing we know Earth stopped spinning and vanished."

The Doctor said "I see. So you saw a blue unicorn and then time on earth stopped."

The Sontaren general said "I'm not surprised. We heard about several planets vanishing. The unicorn is news to us though."

The Doctor had an idea "This is not the first time it happened to earth though." Rose Jack, Gwen and Martha remembered the Daleks and their Reality Bomb. "Jack can I see you phone?"

Jack was surprised. He said "Sure but usually people call me with my phone on." He handed the Doctor his phone. The Doctor used his sonic screwdriver on it.

River said "Doctor what are you doing?"

The Doctor finished and said "I think I know where the earth went. Thanks for saving my companions but we must be off" He went back to the TARDIS. Everyone but the Sontarens followed him back.

TRADIS ??:00

The Doctor went back to the TARDIS and set the coordinates for the Medusa Cascade.

He thought 'What are they doing?' He was sure that the missing planets was no mere coincident. The rest of his companions was already back in the TARDIS. He wondered what the Silence and Olympus Limited would gain from this. The TARDIS had vanished for the Sontaren warship.

Back in the Warship. The general said "Track the TARDIS. And prepare for combat." The warship did so as the blue box disappeared.

Medusa Cascade ??:00 6/07/6711

The TARDIS had appeared inside the Medusa Cascade a few second out of sync from normal time. There they saw 108 planets in a large sphere-like formation. There was an empty ship on top of the formation and a large starship in center of it.

Pinkie said "Ooh look We found Equestria." And pointed to one of the planets. Indeed that was the planet where Equetsria lays. the planet that the ponies used to call home. The group recognized other planets as well including two earths. Rose wept for she knew that she went form one to the other. There were other familiar planets as well. Homonoia took the time to leave the control room. River noticed this and followed.

Amy said "Doctor what is this?"

The Doctor said "108 missing planets." Everyone had noticed that there were no stars. There were the 108 planets, the TARDIS, the ship in the center of the planets, and nebulae but no stars. The Doctor wondered why this is.

Homonoia went to the dwarf star alloyed room. River followed with her blaster ready, She was in for a surprise. Homonoia said "BEGINNING TELEPORTATION!" and revealed her metal wings and horn. The Dwarf-star and Chronosteel alloyed room began to shrink to the size of a softball. The door opened to find a metal black sphere with a competently accurate star chart and rainbow zodiac signs on it.

River had caught up to the metal blue pony. She said "I knew you couldn't be trusted." Homonoia levitated the black sphere and said "CHRONOSTEEL ACQUIRED. RETURNING TO OLYMPIA!" The robot pony disappeared with the sphere. River was mad that the chronosteel slipped under their fingers as well. She went back to tell the Doctor that Homonoia had stolen the chronosteel.

Rigel ♞ Every Star Every Planet

??? ??:00 6/07/6711

The Maestro of Discord had returned to Olympia with a Time Beetle. He saw a blue machine levitating a black sphere of sorts. He couldn't make the details out thought. The Master's voice within said "Is That..." He recognized the chronosteel and looked out. He saw the TRADIS and thought 'Perfect.'

"I'll say!"

The Maestro was keeling over. The Master's voice said "What are you doing?"

"I've had waited long enough. My revenge comes now!" Discord's voice said. He had taken over the body of the Maestro and winked further inside the ship.

TARDIS ??:00

River had warned the group about Homonoia's treachery. The Doctor looked at the planets at the distance and said "I think I know where she took the chronosteel."

Starsong noticed something coming towards the TARDIS. Weird ships. She said "Guys!" and brought everyone's attention to the ships. The ships looked a lot like arrows and appear to have androids as pilots. Droids that would try and skewer the TRADIS. The Docotr and River flew the TARDIS enought to the left that the arrowships missed.

Twilight said "What were those?"

Jack said "They're on to us."

By this point The Sontaren warship had arrived. The captain appeared on the Doctor's screen and said "Very clever hiding out of sync."

"What do you want?" The Doctor said.

"I told you. We seek a truce until this threat to the universe is dispatched." The Captain said.

River looked at the radar and said "Doctor more ships are coming."

There are more arrowships heading towards the Doctor's TARDIS. The Doctor said "Alright can you give covering fire?"

"Aye sir." The Sontaren said.

"Alright then." The Doctor said. "River, Rose, Pond, Martha, Jack we need to get the TARDIS closer without getting hit." As he went to the controls. The aforementioned companions also took a sixth of the controls with River shutting off the brakes.

"Rory, Mickey, Gwen, Rex. Check the radar and sonar for any threats and also check for Ion umm thingies." The Doctor said.

"Why would you need sonar?" Rex said.

"You never know." The Doctor said. "Twilight I need--"

"I know the drill." She projected a barrier over the box. She thought 'And I know how Shining Armor must feel.'

Pinkie thought 'You okay Twi?'

'I'm fine.' Twilight thought. The blue ship began to moved toward the center of this artificial system. The Sontarens began their assault to shot the enemies down before they reach the Doctor's ship. Some of these potato-like aliens have enjoyed the moment for these cones live and breath for combat.

The TARDIS was flying and maneuvering and dodging the arrowships. Meanwhile inside Olympia Homonoia went to see Max Zeus. She said "I have successfully managed to get the chronosteel."

Max said "And the bearers of the Elements of Harmony?"

The robotic alicorn said "They still retain their individuality."

The C.E.O was furious. He noticed a small bur ship coming towards Olympia and said "You have done well enough. I'll go prepare for the ritual. You have one more chance. It is absolutely important that you link the bearers to you mind."

"Understood." Homonoia went off. Max went to the resurrection gate. There he seen his fellow Olympians there, chained up and unconscious. He thought 'Our fusion will bring forth a new era. One where I will rule as one who will exceed even the Time Lords.' He'd placed the unconscious Olypians into one chamber and then went into another chamber. Both chambers began to glow with an unearthly light.

When he stepped out the other Olypians had vanished without a trace and Max Zeus looked different. He was all white and his clothes changed into radiant white robes with golden highlights. He also seem to have 13 wings. Max said "The Power... So much power and it's still not enough." He then proceeded to the resurrection gate.

TARDIS ??:00

The TARDIS was doing well. Only a third of the way to go. However...

Rex and Gwen noticed something on their screen. It said "WARNING! ION TRAIL CONDENSING." Rex said "Doctor!"

An Ion cannon was aiming for the Doctor. It was reading itself to fire. The TARDIS moved to the right away from the Sontaren warship. Several arrowships have been shot out of the Olympia. The Ion beam was locked onto the TARDIS and began to fire. The Beam missed and began to rail the Doctor taking out the Arrowships that were chasing.

Inside the TARDIS The Doctor said "NOW!" The TARDIS began to disappear. It vanished before the beam could hit it and thus shrunk down into nothingness for it lost it's target.

Olympia ??:00

The TARDIS had materialized inside the large construct inside the 108 planets. Everyone went outside the TARDIS and split up. The Doctor went with River, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack. Rose went with Lyra, Bonbon, Minty, Ditzy, Flitter and Cloudchaser. Amy went with Rory, Cheerilee, Toola Roola and Starsong and made sure that Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo are safe with them. And Martha went with Jack. Mickey, Gwen and Rex. the 4 groups went to find Homonoia, retrieve the chronosteel and return the planets back to where they belong.

In another part of the large ship however Max Zeus met with Madame Korvarian. The latter was not impressed with the new form. She said "Not powerful enough for you?"

"The resurrection gate is open, we just need a Time Lord." Max said.

Korvarian noticed someone lurking in the shadow and the coloring of the room change from white to pink and then to a dark blue. She said "Do Hybrids count?" And left the room.

Sirius ♝ Falling Stars

Olympia ??:00 6/07/6711

The Doctor's group was looking around the unusual star ship. They could hear the Sontarens weapons clash with those of the Olympia.

Twilight noticed something. Applejack thought 'You okay Twi?'

Twilight thought 'I'm fine.' She checked her telepathic inhibitor.

The group went ahead. They saw two passages: One straight ahead and one going to the right. The Doctor and River went first inside the room. But the door closed behind them preventing the ponies from entering. The Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to open the door...

"This door is wood." The Doctor said. River tried blasting the door, but the door wouldn't budge. The ponies on the other side noticed something and took the right path. The Doctor and River saw some computers inside the room and they saw something else in there as well...

Olympia ??:00

Martha's group had entered a computer room. Mickey and Gwen noticed a file with the name of "Still and Fixed points logs." Gwen decided to read the document. Rex said "What are you doing!?"

Gwen said "Looking at some files. I though tot was your job to gather information Rex." She saw that the file was encrypted. Mickey helped her decode the file.

The document first told of fixed points: Moments in time that cannot be tampered with without destroying the universe.

Jack wondered about Rex. Ever since the two of them stopped the Three Families plot, Rex had been granted immortallity. He wonders if that made him as much of a fixed point as Jack.

The Document Then went to a picture of Lake Silencio. Rex said "What is that place doing here?"

Martha said "You know of this place?"

Rex said "There was an anomaly here. The CIA was sent to investigate it along with the FBI. But we couldn't find anything unusual with it."

Jack said "Well here's something unusual." The document scrolled to reveal the Doctor close to the lake. He was with Amy, Rory, and River Song. There was a spacesuit with the Doctor. The paragraph below told of River's life as an assassin trained by the Silence to kill the Doctor. But it also chronicled her failure to do so. Her love for the Doctor and how she was forced to continue to kill him...and succeeded.

The group was shocked. Jack said "Well this is interesting." His understatement didn't amuse anyone.

Martha said "Know I know he survived. Look at the date."

Rex said "You said the dude's a time traveler. Wouldn't that imply that he'd been seen anywhen after his death?"

Jack said "You have a point but the Doctor had a reason to live and the will to do so."

Suddenly they heard a noise. Everyone readied their weapons. They saw some aliens enter the room.

Olympia ??:00

The bearers of the elements had left the Doctor and River after they were trapped inside a computer room. Something had came over them. They were about to take off their inhibitors until...

They had woken up from their trance. Rainbow Dash thought 'What happened?'

Twilight thought 'Where are we?' The group checked their surroundings. They were inside a intersection of 6 halls.

Pinkie thought 'Maybe we went inside a weird cookie cutter?'

Applejack thought 'Pinkie Ah'm certain that's not the case here.'

Rarity had looked to one of the halls and she saw a dark blue silhouette. She thought 'Girls, I think I've saw that their.' and went down that hallway.

Fluttershy thought 'Rarity wait.' as the rest of the bearers followed her.

Olympia ??:00

Amy's group had went into a room. There they looked around for Homonoia and answers. Rory looked around and saw the lights flicker. He thought to himself 'Well that can't be good.'

The room they went into looked alike a nature preserve, except there no animals inside. Just plants. Cheerilee, Starsong and Toola Roola find the plant life creepy, as if they somehow wandered back into the Everfree forest.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders however were less afraid then the adults. Though they did avoid the plants just as much as they did.

Scootaloo noticed something peculiar lurking in the woods. She saw the vines move and told her two friends "Now this is creepy."

The vines were retracting into the ground. Cherrilee and Amy noted that the vines don't grow from the ground. The group decided to flee. But the vines emerged from the ground and wrapped around Tools Roola's and Starsong's hind legs. The ponies tried to bite off the vines but their teeth could not cut the vines. Rory took his sword and cut the bindings and the group began to flee from the room.

They were bring chased by the alien vines as they popped out like tentacles and tried to trap the group here. Amy and Rory were able to cut some of the vines as they went close.

Eventually the group went out of the room. They saw Martha's group.

Starsong said "Did you guys find out anything?"

Gwen said "Not much. Just some stuff on fixed points. And your picnic in Utah."

Rory and Amy were shocked. Amy said "Anything else?"

Mickey said "I don't know we saw something and after that it was a blur."

Jack said "What did you say?"

Mickey said "That it was a blur. That I couldn't remember it. I know you come from the 51st century but you don't know what that means?"

Jack said "I know what that means." He said "It means we should get going now."

The group noticed some shadows. And left to avoid them

Olympia ??:00

Rose's group had entered a small room. There they saw another monitor. Rose Tyler had checked the contents of the file. They contained blueprints.

Lyra said "What the hay? Who was that?"

Bonbon said "She looks like Homonoia, except she was not a princess."

Flitter and Cloudchaser were a little bit confused by the image Ditzy and Minty wasn't surprised though.

Rose checked the contents again. She noticed several cards on the upper right of the blueprint, labeled "Data-cards." She said "Let's see those cards contain." She clicked the image. "Oh no!"

The group was shocked. The cards were described as having came from the Hephaestus division and used the AETOS nanites to copy the information instantly onto blank cards. The next part told that they are used as a database for the minds, thoughts and memories for the victims.

Rose copied the entire blueprints and went to find the Doctor.

Olympia ??:00

The Doctor and River had found themselves covered with tally marks. River had her blaster out and the Doctor was nearby some terminal.

The Doctor looked at the marks and said "Looks like the Silence were here."

The Doctor noticed that there was a terminal. He went to examine it. There he said "Well looks like Christmas came early. Glad to have a list." There was a document.

The file showed the chronosteel and had "Another Harmony" written on it. The Doctor examined the Document read as if Olympus Limited or the Silence had knowledge of Equestria. It said something about a spell that stopped time. The Doctor wondered why they needed suck a spell. He remembered his conversation with Dorrium inside the Headless Monks' lair. He remembered him speaking about still points and how easy it would be making fixed point on them. That suspicion was clear when he got to a line on the document that read "108 still points"

River said "Doctor what is this?"

The Doctor said "A clue River." He continued the Document where he got to a line that read "88 Screaming stars." The Doctor thought about that. He remembered there being 88 constellations documaneted from Earth. And 88 pieces of chronosteel.

The "screaming stars" line must refer to the chronosteel. But what about the other two lines. Why did they need 108 still points? What was "Another Harmony?" He pondered these questions. He suddenly remembered The first dream in witch he saw the TARDIS' human avatar.

"Another Harmony" was said in that dream after...

The Docotr realized that the Eye of Harmony was returning. Gallifrey was returning. He also realized that the Medusa Cascade one second out of sync, would bring forth a new time war. One that would devastate the universe and one that under these circumstances would be a fix point in time. He knew that if Galiffrey and The Tine Lord are allowed to return now then the universe would be destroyed no matter what. The Doors had suddenly opened. Rose's group was on the other side this time.

The Doctor explained what he found out to Rose and River. Rose in turn showed the blueprints to them. Afterward they went to find the others and then stop Gallifrey's return.

Olympia ??:00

The wielders of the Elements of Harmony followed Homonoia to a room. There the bearers saw the small sphere. The robotic blue ponies said "Look at them. Still screaming. Still looking for a way out of the metal prisons their bodies had become."

Rainbow Dash said "Let the chronosteel go!"

Homonoia said "Okay." She let the chronosteel and dwarf-star alloy go and it floated to the center of the room. She also dropped a bejeweled box and slid it to the ponies. Twilight recognized the box and opened it to find the Elements of Harmony.

The lavender unicorn said "Why did you take them? What did you want with the chronosteel or the Elements?"

The metallic blue pony said "I want you to share in their pain, their suffering. Go ahead try to used the Elements on them." The 6 ponies looked at the now shining sphere. Homonoia said "You can't can you. You wouldn't bring yourselves to risk losing your family and friends would you?"

Applejack said "What do you want?"

Homonoia said "Ah the farmer who job is to harvest apples. And to think that if you were anything other than Honesty incarnate your farm would fall to corruption. Your skill are sub-par at meat and the only reason you are the best athlete in Ponyville is because your pegasus friend there has a terrible work ethic and because Equestria's best athletes don't live in Ponyville. Look at your poor performance at the rodeo and tell e you anything but you're a honest-to-goodness joke of an athelete who would never find a better job than farming."

Applejack felt broken. Rarity said "Leave her alone you ruffian!"

Homonoia said "Rarity The Generous fashion-minded unicorn who dreams of high society. You'd give the shirt off your back even if that shirt would have gave you the opportunity to be renowned world wide. You don't even have a good sense of fashion. An you take more then you give, especially when it comes to gemstones."

Rarity had been speechless. Fluttershy said "Stop it!"

Homonoia said "But you knew it too, right Fluttershy? Your Kindness is immersuareablr but so is your rage. You keep it hidden because you live all alone with nothing but mongrels and beasts that nopony would ever adopt except out of pity for you. You could barely keep your pet rabbit under control."

Fluttershy was on the verge of tears. Rainbow Dash said "If you say another word I'll--"

"You'll what Rainbow Dash?" Homonoia said "Haughty, Selfish and at the same time Loyal. A contradiction if there ever was one if you ask me. You would had ditched them just to go join those talentless Wonderbolts. And then you would get kicked off the team for the same reason you got the boot from flight camp. You would never have what it takes."

Rainbow was also on the verge of tears. Pinkie said "Now you just hold it you big fat meanie."

Homonoia said "Ah Pinkie Pie. Chosen to wield Laughter but ironically in a unfunny state of mind. You were alone and friendless when you came to Ponyville. So you throw parties for everyone to gain their affection. You're the type of pony who would say 'Please come to my parties. I live alone with nothing but a pet alligator and have no friends. Please Please Please.' Bah, just as much a frivolous waste of time as dressmaking. And your baked goods would leave people wondering if you used any meat to make them."

Pinkie was the one who began crying. Twilight had had enough. She said "Why are you doing all this?"

Homonoia said "Oh. Twilight Sparkle. I was just being Honest with all of you. I felt Generous enough to let you know how Loyal I am to you and let you Laugh at you own mistakes and flaws afterwards. I know I would. Aren't I just Kind."

Twilight said "You Lying bitch!"

Homonoia said "Not good enough for your Magic?" Fine. But first ask yourself this. Are you sure that your beloved mentor is as perfect as you imagine? She let you and your friends ruin a prestigious event just for shits and giggles. And yet you still try to please her like a lovestruck puppy. No wonder you and Pinkie would be so well together. You two are alike: alone, insane, but you have the most powerful Magic in all Equestria. And yet you stick round with these pathetic losers?"

Twilight was mad. She charged towards the robot and shouted "MY FRIENDS ARE NOT LOSERS!"

Homonoia said "Prove it then. Use the Elements. Finish me." Twilight didn't notice that Homonoia took off the inhibitors.

Twilight said "Fine we will!" She and her friends began to put on the Elements and use them on Homonoia.

A giant rainbow shot out and began to hit the robot. Who said "SYNCHRONIZATION BEGUN. 11%." The machine continued to stand there in the rainbow's path. "13%, 26%, 39%."

The ponies were shocked. The machine should had shut down by the elements. Homonoia levitated the chronosteel as the ponies focused their thoughts on her.

"52%, 67%, 90%. 100%."

the Bearers had fainted. Homonoia had merged their minds with her own. She said "On your feet." The 6 ponies were now under her control.

Vega ♔ Harmony's Climax

Olympia ??:00 6/07/6711

Homonoia, Twilight, Rarity Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were casually walking down the halls of the war ship. The eyes of the bearers were dim and lifeless, as if someone had took their souls and minds out of their bodies. Homonoia saw Korvarian and Max Zeus near the resurrection gate.

Max Zeus looked at the 6 ponies and said to the blue robot "You have done it?"

Homonoia said "Yes I have brought those who wield the Elements of Harmony under my control." She appear to have some sort of headache, as if she waged war on herself.

Max said "Good. We have already have our Time Lord. You will stand by and prepare for the birth of a new creation."

Homonoia passed the gate and found the Maestro of Discord. Lying unconscious inside the resurrection gate. She decided to wait nearby the terminal. She thought 'Old coot. The power made him too arrogant. Guess I'll have to dispatch of him.'

Korvarian had left the Olympia. She looked at the traitorous expression of the robot and was confident that Max's plan would fail. She then looked at the 6 ponies reduced to puppets with their minds trapped inside Homonoia's own. She vanished.

Olympia ??:00

The Doctor's group have met up with Martha's group.

Jack Harkness said "Doctor where are the ponies that went with you?"

"We lost them" The Doctor said. "River and I went into a trap. We found this for our troubles though." He handed Jack the document he found earlier. Rose also show the group Homonoia's blueprints.

Meanwhile Ditzy was horsing around when she accidentally slipped on the floor and crashed into a nearby computer. The screen showed Max Zeus on a throne. The group could also see the wielders of the Elements in one of the corners appearing catatonic and Homonoia nearby.

Amy said "well I think we found them."

The fillies were distraught. Their sisters (and idol) looked helpless and apathetic as if someone took their souls and ripped them out of their bodies reducing them to mere puppets. The Doctor used the sonic screwdriver on the screen to reveal a map with a path to their destination. Max Zeus' throne room.

The Doctor said "I know where to go." And took a pathway leading to the right. The others followed.

Olympia ??:00

The Doctor's group had to go to the throne room. They went as fast as they could to reach Max Zeus and his hostages. Rory, Amy, Rose, Martha, Mickey, Rex and Jack we watching out for the Silents. The Doctor and River were following their map leading the group to the throne room. Cheerilee, Toola Roola, and Starsong were comporting the 3 fillies. and the other ponies were looking out for anything unusual.

The group haven't seen any Silents so far. They eventually made it to a large gold and white door.

Lyra said "So is this the throne room?"

The Doctor said "Yes. I think so." He checked the map to find out that the throne room and with it the chronosteel and the 6 ponies were behind this door. The Doctor prepared to unlock the door.

Bonbon said "So we burst in ask this dude what he's plotting, foil his plans rescue Twilight and her friends, grab the chronosteel and get out?"

The Doctor said "Yeah pretty much."

The group noticed an unconscious blue unicorn lying nearby, Rory and Martha tended to her wounds and noticed several burn marks on her forehead.

The Doctor had finished unlocking the doors. The double doors had began opening as a unearthly light flows form behind.

Olympia ??:00

The Doctor's group had made it tot he throne room. There they saw Max Zeus sitting on his throne attached to some wires and Homonoia doing something to the computer. They also say the Maestro of Discord unconscious in the resurrection gate. The wielders of the Elements of harmony were just standing nearby. Each wept a simple tear.

Max Zeus aid "Ah Doctor. Glad to meet you in the flesh. Not so often I get to meet a dead man, of course it isn't so often I get a chance into godhood as well."

The Doctor said "Who are you and what do you want?"

Max said "I am Maximus Zeus. And as for my plans well since I gonna kill you afterwards, I'll let you take the secret back to your grave. I want to bring back Gallifrey."

The Doctor said "I know that but why? Do you not know of the monsters that lurk in there?"

"The Nightmare Child? The Could-had-been King and his army of Neverwheres? All the Daleks and Time Lords that dies in the war? I know and that's why I plan on bringing back the planet at the height of it's destruction at your hand."

Everyone was stunned. Homonoia had just inputted a password and The ceiling of the room turned invisible.

Max said "I plan using it's destruction to bring forth a new age. I used the still points to finalize my rule for you know how easy it is to make a fixed point on them. And I shall use the chronosteel as a conduit to return Gallefrey to this time and place!"

Above them, above the 108 planets a large one was emerging from nowhere. The resurrection gate was activated. Jack and River began to fire at Max but the blasts and bullets were unable to faze him. He said "Fools I can't be defeated. You cannot win. VICTORY IS MINE!" he began to gloat and laugh.

"Oh please, as if you plan would succeed." Homonoia pushed a button. The resurrection gate shut off waking the Maestro up. He then escaped as the machine self destructed. the large planet disappeared.

"Homonoia what are you doing?" Max said.

"You plan would not work Max. The destruction of these planets would prevents other fixed points in time and cause a paradox." Homonoia said "You have grown so mad with power that your plan would doom the universe. And I can't rule a universe if it's gone." Homonoia was having trouble moving. It was like she was controlling 7 sets of hooves at once, and nether of them agreed on where to go.

"What do you mean [Rule the universe]?" Max said "I will be the one to rule over all creation!" Max began to attack the android. But she protected herself from the blast.

"You seem surprised. You programmed me for treachery remember. I'm just following my programming." Homonoia fire a magical blast form her horn and disintegrated Max Zeus. She then turned to the group and said "Who's next."

The Doctor said "You're having trouble moving. You're losing the war within yourself."

Rose said "Doctor, what are you talking about?"

The Doctor said "Look at her and look at the ponies Rose. Homonoia was programmed for two things: 1) To take the chronosteel from us when we finished gathering them up. and 2) To take control of the Elements of Harmony. Isn't that right Homonoia?"

The machine was spazzing out. Parts of her began to shorten out as she tried to move closer. She appeared like she was suffering from a battle with split personalities. The Doctor said "Everyone get back to the TARDIS."

The rest of the group took the blue unicorn and returned to the blue box. Homonoia tried top stop them but he her body was working against her. She said "What's going on?"

"I have encountered my share of A.I and robots in my travels." The Doctor said. "Some good, others bad. But that irreverent. You see that planet Max Zeus tried to bring back? Gallefrey? That was my home. My family was on that planet that went to war with the Daleks in a unwinnable war with all of creations. Over time The Time Lords had became just as evil as the Daleks themselves. You want to know How the war ended?"

Homonoia was trying to attack the Time Lord but her weapons are disabled.

The Doctor continued. "I ended it! I blew the planet to kingdom come. I still regret those actions. Then one Christmas eve I saw The Master return. Turns out that his arrival and the resurrection gate, not unlike the one you blew up, was being part of a plot to bring Gallefrey back and end time itself. I still foiled their plans and doom my first home to oblivion to save all reality from going there itself."

Homonoia said "Why are you telling me this?" She struggled to move as her circuits broke apart. The eyes of the Bearers began to glow.

The Doctor said "Contrast. With the ponies. Specifically the ponies whose consciousnesses you took and assimilated into your mind. Unlike me who would then attack home and family to save reality. They would use whatever power they can to defend their friends and family, their home. Even if it cost them their lives!"

The formally catatonic ponies have awakened and broke free from Homonoia's telepathic web. The blue robot was shocked. "This can't be!" The ponies began to use the Elements of Harmony again. This time the resulting Rainbow engulfed everything within the Medusa Cascade. Planets and Sontaren warship began disappearing. The Olympia was being torn apart.

The ponies had let go of the rainbow and their eyes lost their glow. They saw he Doctor and streak of colour around them. Twilight said "Doctor what's going on?" She began to remember what happened to her.

The Doctor said "You used the Elements to fix a part of the universe?"

The other 5 ponies began to recall their being trapped within Homonoia's mind. They saw the blue android reduced to scrap metal. Fluttershy said "Did we really do that?"

The Doctor nodded. They heard something fall behind them and the Time Lord said "We should run now."

"Oh yes you should."

The Maestro had reappeared. Rainbow Dash said "What the hay do you want!?"

The Maestro said in The Master's voice "To thank you for ridding me of that wretched chaos spirit. He's slowly retuning back to his stone-cold prison right now. I'm returning back to the void. But first."

The Maestro began to disappear. he snapped his fingers and a doorway appeared. Applejack said "Why are you doing this?" The orange earth pony still could not trust the Maestro.

"Consider it a gift. You sent everyone back to leave in the TARDIS. Not must plans for escape there aren't there?"

The Ponies and Doctor are still skeptical. Rarity said "Are you sure this door will not take us to some weird planet with--"

Pinkie Pie said "Ooh I've love to see that little town hidden on a snowflake."

The Maestro said "No it will take you back to your TARDIS. Now go before this place crushes you lot."

The Doctor looked at The Maestro and said "We're going." The group headed into the doorway.

Twilight said "Doctor are you sure we can trust him?"

The Doctor said "Just this once? I would." They entered the doors and they closed behind them and disappeared. The Master said "Good luck." and then vanished as well.

The bands of color and light were vanishing leaving nothing but debris. All the planets had returned to their proper places and time for these planets had resumed.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor and the bearers of the Elements have returned to the TARDIS. Pinkie wound up with a onion stalk and started twirling it. The rest of the Doctor's companions were already in the control room. Some pleasantly surprised, others glad to see them alright. Twilight however was shocked when she saw Trixie there, still unconscious.

The Doctor explained what happened while they went to the TARDIS. Afterwards.

The Doctor said "So who wants to accompany me on a trip to see the dark side of Venus?"

None of the companions had wanted to go yet. Martha explained that she and Mickey were already accustomed to their relatively normal life. Amy and Rory explained that they were pushing it by a few months and that they would like to return to earth. The Torchwood agents told the Doctor that they were investigating the Three Families. And Rose wanted to check on the Metacrisis Doctor. The ponies also would like to return home feeling that they had enough space adventure for a while. The Doctor agreed to return everyone to their homes. (And River to Stormcage)

Equestria ??:00

After The Doctor returned his Human Companions to their homes. He landed the TARDIS near the forest. The ponies exited. Twilight said "Thank you for helping us Doctor."

The Doctor said "It was no problem. Now I suppose you have a lot to speak with your princesses about."

Twilight said "I guess. and I have to check to see if Spike's okay."

"And we have to finish the welcoming party!" Pinkie said.

Starsong said "I think we can save that for another time."

The Doctor said "I'm sure we will meet again, I don't know where, and I don't know when. But I'm certain I'll see you again."

The ponies said their thanks and then their farewells and adieus. They left for Ponyville as the TARDIS disappears with the Doctor on-board.

Ponyville ??:00

Twilight Sparkle began to pen down a letter to the princess. The letter said that Twilight had learned that friends can come in all shapes and sizes, and that Cheerilee's friends were staying in Ponyville from now on. She also asked her to say hi to her brother for her. She shouted "Spike!"

The purple dragon came down and sent the letter with his breath. The wind carried the green puff to Canterlot. The purple unicorn then left the Library to meet up with her friends.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor having returned from Equestria to his own dimension ponder what to do. He said "Maybe ancient Egypt would make a nice vacation spot." He began to set the coordinates. He saw his tarot deck. The front card was the Universe. Now right-side up. The cards began to disappear.

When he landed the TARDIS in Egypt he wonders about Trenzalore and The fall of the Eleventh. But decided to go out and enjoy himself. The lights started to flicker.

Ponyville 6:07 AM 6/13/2012

It was a quiet day in Ponyville. Twilight Sparkle was shopping in the marketplace. She looked at a mirror in one of the stands. Her purpleish-blue mane with purple and pink streaks are not out a place. The unicorn saw an Pinkie Pie prancing nearby. The purple mare walked up the the her and said "Hello Pinkie."

Pinkie responded "Hey Twilight, how are you doing?"

"Well I'm looking for some supplies to study the constellations, and you?"

"Cheerilee said that two of her friends are visiting this week and I need to welcome them. Oh isn't this great that two new ponies are coming here this week?"

"Uh I guess..."

Then Fluttershy walked in with Angel on her back. She quietly said "Uh hello, how are you doing?"

The party pony said "Hiya Fluttershy, Cheerilee said that two of her friends are coming and I need to prepare the party wagon for them." The party pony who then pulls out a what looks like a trunk on wheels. Twilight then said "I plan on doing a little astronomy tonight."

The shy pegasus said "Well I'm here to get some food for Angel; He's been really hungry lately." Just then the white hare jumped out of the bag. The two mares agreed to helped Fluttershy get some food.

Ponyville 11:00 AM

In the center of town there was a mysterious blue box. But no-one had questioned it's existence, in fact nopony seemed to even noticed. Inside this box The Doctor was busy tweaking some things River Song walked in. She said "Hello sweetie. Still working on the TARDIS?"

The time stallion said "Well River these Tachyon barriers don't install themselves," he was aiming with a device in his mouth. The device emitted a green light and buzzing sound. "And I've got to do something in case the TARDIS explodes again."

River then said "Well i just can't believe you decided to have a vacation in this dimension and work on the that box instead Doctor." She looked at her green flank which was adorned by picture of a river and a musical note. "Nor do i understand how you managed to got us in this dimension in the first place, care to explain?"

The doctor after looking at the hourglass on his brown flank then said "Well this is a Perpendicular Dimension. That means travel between this and our dimensions is easier, whereas Parallel Dimensions like Pete's World are as the term implies running parallel to our dimension and thus can't intercept in any way." The stallion then trotted to another terminal. "Perpendicular Dimensions can intersect making travel between the two much easier and less likely to destroy the universe."

"And yet you will still have to face a universe destroying cataclysm at the end of the month."

"What? That's ridiculous. There are no apocalyptic events happening in either universe."

The green pony then took some books. she read her blue one which resembled the TARDIS. "Let's see now: We have the cracks in time..."

"Well that was apocalyptic, but there was almost no way I could had predicted that."

"...The Dalek's Reality Bomb..."

"That was not at the end of the month. And you know that."

She turned the page "...And then there's the world being controlled by you're longtime rival. Oh and let's not forget what happened before AND after you regenerated."

"Ok that covers Earth, but Equestria is nothing like that."

River then picked up the other book skimmed through it and said "You're right Doctor, They only had to deal with the treat of Imperishable Nights, a sadistic embodiment of chaos, bears made of the stars themselves, and shape-shifters that feed on love, nothing apocalyptic in the slightest."

Just then they heard a knock on the door. The Doctor opened the door. It was Pinkie Pie. The brown stallion said "Hello, do you need some sugar?"

"No thanks," the party pony giggled. She honks the stallion's snout and said "You're invited to a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious party in Sugarcube Corner this week." Streamers then exploded from behind her. She handed the doctor and River their invitations and bounced away. After she left River said "I thought you said [Mary Poppins] didn't exist here."

"I thought so too. Well i put up the Tachyon Barrier so we can take some time off our hands. and The makeshift perception filter makes sure that uh almost everypony will not accidentally walk in the TARDIS for a joyride." said the Doctor.

"Famous last words. Doctor." The pale green pony said.

The duo left the blue box and went to explore this dimension a bit.

Ponyville 1:10 PM

A class of fillies were studying inside a schoolhouse. Cheerilee was about to dismiss the class when Sweetie Belle raised her hoof and said "Why are you dismissing class early Miss Cheerilee?" whist scratching her lavender mane.

Cheerilee then said "Um well Sweetie Belle I have to prepare for a reunion with two of my friends."

"Were these the ponies Pinkie said she was having a party for?" Scootaloo said.

Then Apple Bloom said "And why haven't you tell us about them before?"

The schoolteacher turn her plum-colored head to the filly with the hair bow and answered "Because Apple Bloom ever since I became a teacher, we haven't got a chance to talk before now and- Wait did you said Pinkie was throwing a party for them Scootaloo?"

Scootaloo nodded head. Cheerilee dismissed the class and talked to the party pony. She went to Sugarcube Corner and found Pinkie setting up decorations. The purple earth pony said "Uh Pinkie, How many people did you tell about my friends coming here?"

The pink earth pony said "Oh not much, just my friends, and some other ponies."

"How many?" the schoolteacher said.

"Hmm lets see, there the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and some couple living in a blue box, so maybe 5?"

"Phew," sighed the schoolteacher 'For a minute i thought you'd invited all of Ponyville."

"What, No." The pink pony bounced, with her blue eyes looking at Cheerilee's green ones. "I know that this is a casual gathering silly, besides you said that they were coming Friday right. Most everypony will be busy then. The cakes have to deliver a giant cake to Canterlot, Lyra and Bon-Bon are hanging out and Rose and her friends are closing later."

"I see, well thanks Pinkie."

"No problem."

The schoolteacher had left Pinkie to her decorating.

Canterlot 4:11 PM

A cloaked figure was sneaking around for some peculiar reason the figure didn't look like a pony but even stranger nopony actually noticed, as if she was invisible. She sneaked inside the castle and opened the doors. Inside the room a white Alicorn was standing inside. the alicorn had a flowing mane of various colors, and was easily the tallest pony so far.

"Who goes there?" said the alicorn.

"Deactivation code 6-7-β [Nocens Lupus]," The figure whispered. The cloak then grew more visible. The figure said "I wish to speak with the ruler of this land."

"And for what purpose do you want to speak to me. I can tell you are not from this world." The princess said.

"I want to warn you. Someone took something from your library and will use it to stop the flow of time."

"I see and you know this how?"

"I saw the future, that they will take the stolen parchment into my home dimension and silence had fall. I was the only one who escaped. I came here because i know of someone who had confronted threats greater then the likes of witch you never seen, and i know he's here."

"How great?"

"he had stopped the destruction of all reality at multiple times, he had saved count planets and people many times, and he had even gone out of his way to save entire species. But i don't think he can stop this threat alone."

"I see."

"As ridiculous as it sounds, i think that a specific group of individuals from this land can help him." The figure had noticed some guards are entering. and said "Tell this land's saviors to find the blue box." She then whispered "Activation code 6-7-13-α [Licentia]." and the figure vanished in a gust of wind.

When the guards arrived the figure had vanished without a trace the stallion in purple armor said "Princess Celestia is something wrong?"

"Nothing Shining Armor, I'm fine. Will you please check the Star Swirl the Bearded wing?" said the princess.

"Understood." The stallion said. the guards left and Celestia decided to write a letter to her student after she had proof of the figure's claims.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was busy in the control room of the TARDIS. River walked in and said "Where's the EMP? I want the dud back."

"Oh, River." The Doctor took out the small sphere from and gave it back to River Song.

"So what are you doing?"

Twilight Sparkle had entered the room and noticed the mechanism sitting on the control panels. She siad"Doctor, What is this?"

"Well, it's a clock technically speaking," He examined the device. "It reacted to the chronosteel. You see it appears that some chronosteeel has been found here." He then took his screwdriver out and pointed at the center of the room. A timeline had appeared in front of them.

"So this [Antikythera Mechanism] is a sort of tracker?"

"In this case yes, The TARDIS can't track when the chronosteel is. It can find where it is, just not when. The mechanism had changed it's bearings." The doctor inputs the date he had gotten from the Greek device on to the TARDIS. The time line then shifted to the date of May 7 1999. The Doctor then pushed some buttons and the TARDIS was tracking the chronosteel.

Twilight said "I get it now, You use that thing to get the date first and then search for the place, Right?"

"Yes that's about correct." The Doctor answered.

"You think this will work? Doctor" River said.

"Of course River, It's as easy as riding a bike, I mean if the bike had no wheels, handlebars, or pedals."

Something was printing out of the TARDIS computer. The Doctor picket it up and said "Oh look, here are the coordinates."

The madman went to the panels on his box and inputted the data. the TARDIS then vanished to its destination.

TARDIS ??:00

Toola Roola was inside the room that was housing the chronosteel. Cheerilee and Starsong walked in the room. The multicolored-maned unicorn was painting something in the room.

"Oh, there you are." Cheerilee went to her friend, Startling the pink unicorn. She had finished her painting.

Toola Roola said "Oh hey guys. What's up?"

"We've been looking for you," Starsong said. "You wandered off this morning."

"Is that what you've been doing?" Cheerilee pointed her hoof at the painting.

The painting depicted a wasteland with cracks on the ground and a crimson sky above it.

"Did I really paint that?" Toola Roola said.

The other two nodded.

"Well I still need help with class today," Cheerilee said. "Would you like to help teach the fillies today?"

The other two had agreed to the task. They exited the room. leaving behind the painting.

Beltsville 3:00 PM 5/07/1999

The TARDIS had materialized on a street corner somewhere. The Doctor and some of his companions had left the box to search for the chronosteel. Cherrile, Toola Roola, and Starsong had stayed behind to give their classes. The Time Lord and his group was walking until they saw a giant building. The building was surrounded by huge fields of land.

The Doctor had entered the building. There was a man there he was a brown-haired man with a lab coat and a black jeans.

"Who are you?" He said.

"Oh," said the Doctor he took out a small wallet of sorts and flashed the blank piece of paper. "John Smith, Agent of the agricultural branch of The U.N. I came because we are looking for something that may cause environmental damage. You can call me [Doctor] if you wish."

"Well then Doctor, Micheal Banner at your service." Micheal then look at at his companions and saw the ponies. He then said "Are these horses even healthy?"

"Why yes, yes they are."

"But why do they look like that?" Micheal was surprised.

"That information is classified by the U.N."

The man in the lab coat was baffled by what he had saw but left it be and took the Doctor and his companion to tour the building.

Beltsville 3:03 PM

Micheal had finished giving the group a tour of the place. He had shown them greenhouses, fields and various animals. The group had sat down on a room in the huge building.

"Ok," Micheal said. "You said you're looking for something, correct?"

"Yes that's correct," the Doctor said. "Have you seen any meteors nearby?"

"Well," Micheal was remembering a meteor falling nearby. "one did fall about a couple week ago."

"Any minerals, metals maybe?"

"Well yes it was weird, there three strange metal spheres embedded in the meteor. They also appeared to have the constellations of Aries, Perseus, and Cassiopeia on each of the spheres." Micheal explained.

"Where are they?" the Doctor said.

"I'd be happy to take you to the metals. I gave them to Sariel. He's with the others scientists. Now i have a question, do these ponies happen to talk?"

Some of the ponies were surprised by the question. The Doctor said "Why do you ask?"

"You really think you could fool me Doctor. I've been having dreams, or rather literal nightmares. Ever since the meteor fell me and the other scientists have been dreaming of strange thing."

"How strange?" the Doctor was curious.

"I don't remember much about these dreams, but I do remember that they involved pastel colored ponies like the group you have with you, time somehow stopping and some strange figures. I'm sorry but my memory's been getting fuzzy when they showed up."

"I see. May we have a moment of privacy?"

"I understand, I'll go get the others." Micheal then left the room.

"So the chronosteel's giving him nightmares, huh?" River said.

"It's not the metal, It's the souls of those trapped within it." The Doctor said.

"Explain please." Rainbow Dash said.

"I think their screaming for help, and they're desperate enough to invade the dreams of others near it. The must be reliving the day Equestria had still." the Time Lord said.

"But how come the chronosteel came to be in the first place?" Twilight said.

"Chronosteel by definition is metal forged in the heat of the time vortex," the Doctor said. "This chronosteel was [forged] by transmutation the ponies into the mineral."

The Doctor and his companion continued their conversation.

TARDIS ??:00

Toola Roola took Starsong and Cheerilee to her room on the TARDIS. There they found several different paintings. Each one either depicting the herself or either friends, of depicting other ponies as well, the paintings all had one thing in common: everyone in them was either dead, was going to die, or was responsible for the deaths for others. The purple pegasus and plum earth pony were worried for her friend.

Starsong said "Toola Roola, umm what's going on?"

"I have been painting ever since I was little." said Toola Roola. The Multicolored-maned unicorn had put the covers back on some of the easels. "But none of my paintings had ever turned out this good." Indeed, The pink unicorn's painting had a level of detail that excelled her previous work. "Nor did they ever turn out this dark. Ever since we escaped I've been having strange dreams, nightmares, and visions; And every night I go out and paint them."

"But Toola, Why?" Cheeriee said.

"I don't know. I've tried to paint anything else but they always turn out like in my dream. You must promise to keep these a secret! If we save Equestria, and word gets out that I did these paintings, I'll be known as the pony that would literally kill for inspiration. And my papa will be mad."

The other two had exchanged surprised glances. But Cheerilee and Starsong said yes. She was relived to hear that. They went out to relax. The slam of the door closing made two covers fall off to reveal two paintings: The first was a painting of Rainbow Dash, strapped to some table and with a figure with a knife preparing to cut her. The the second was a painting of the Cutie Mark Crusaders, running away from zombies while following a ghost of sorts.

TARDIS ??:00

Amy was looking at the Doctor inputting the coordinated from the Antikythera mechanism. The gears representing the planets had finally stopped moving. The Doctor looked more tired than usual. The Time Lord had noticed his redheaded companion and said "Ah, hello Pond."

"Doctor, how long have you been awake?" she said, quickly realizing that she though she would never have to say that.

"Oh 6, maybe 7 hours longer than usual. I was busy studying the movements of the gears, they had been turning you see? When they finally stopped on these coordinates, I was then trying to in put them in the TARDIS. Why do you ask?"

"Umm I think you should get some rest." Amy was getiing worried she doesn't know how long Time Lords can go without sleep. The madman with a box looked and noticed the bags under his eyes and said "Maybe after we find the next piece of chronosteel."

Amy decided to help him plug in the coordinates.

Meanwhile River Song was busy looking through the TARDIS library She took out a book called "Miracle on Deltherus 5" and started reading think that her husband is probably in it. Then Twilight Sparkle came in and levitated one of her books out, River then noticed something written in different places on the inside cover: Diabolus ex Vinco, Bad Wolf, and 88 Screaming Stars. The TARDIS had landed somewhere so River and Twilight put their books away.

The Planet Of Lotuses 3:00 PM 7/5/3200

The TARDIS lands inside a city surrounded by fields of lotuses. Twilight looks at the lotuses scattered around the city in breathtaking awe. The others were also impressed but felt something was amiss. They then saw a man choking in public. Rory went to him and try to help him but the old man refused, the elder man put something in his mouth and said "Bliss..." The man dropped dead soon after. Everyone else went on as if nothing had happened, oblivious to the fact that the dead man had just passed out. This disturbed the Doctor and his group.

"Well then, this just got interesting." The Doctor and Rory went to examine the course. They noticed signs of intoxication and that the man was well rested. The nurse hat what the man had a small tube in his hand and picked it up, The Doctor and Rory had examined the tube. When he got back they saw that only Amy was still here.

The Doctor had noticed this and said "Pond, where are the ponies, and River?"

"River went to investigate this place, The ponies went to explore a bit. They said they'd be back by 7:00 PM" Amy said.

"Okay, don't try anything that looks suspicious." He went to find River Song.

The Planet of the Lotuses 4:00 PM

6 of the ponies were busy taking in the the sights and sound of the lotus fields and the grand city. Applejack and Rainbow Dash however had their doubts about the city.

"Ah don't know about this place, something seems a little off." the farm pony said. The aliens around the mares had looked intoxicated and half asleep.

Pinkie Pie bounced and said "You sure? This planet seems fine to me." She went on to greet some strangers.

"Well wherever we are the chronosteel must be nearby right?" said Twilight. "We should probably try to find it."

"I agree with Applejack, the aliens we've met so far would not go around like this." said Rainbow Dash. Around the ponies was sheer madness, and aliens that moved and acted like blissful zombies. Rarity and Applejack went to find their sisters and the other 4 ponies. The others then decided to look for the chronosteel.

Meanwhile Toola Roola, Cheerilee, and Starsong were taking the fillies to a nearby park to relax, the lotuses were growing everywhere around them. Applejack and Rarity had caught up to their respective sisters and were talking with them and Cheerilee. Meanwhile Toola Roola had found something on the ground. It read "Having nightmares? Need some relief from them? Participate in the Laboratory Of The United Sleepers experiment and we'll get rid of your nightmares." There was something about Olympus Limited on the bottom. She put the flyer away and the mare then headed back to the TARDIS. When they left The Lotuses started glowing.

The Planet of Lotuses 7:30 PM

Several rings had suddenly appeared. Sirius's time machine had emerged from the rings. The cloaked woman had exited the circle. Ditzy had asked why Sirius needed a small microphone and Sirius spoke in a deep voice "I need to disguise my voice for this mission. Keep away from your "locals" and find the record for the Stormcage-666." The 6 cloaked ponies left the circle as well.

Rarity was trotting along path inside a space station.

"Well I know this place is in space, but couldn't it hurt to add some color to the design." She said as she trotted along the grey walls. She looked outside and said "Well at least the view is beautiful." She looked out to the stars and noticed that there's a giant black patch in the sky. But before she could question it, she saw somepony in the distance. The other pony ran out of site before Rarity could get a good look.

"That's strange..." She went ofter the other pony. She passed a sign that said "108 still points."

She chased after the figure all around the craft but it vanished every time before she could find out who it was. She passed another sign saying "88 screaming stars."

Eventually Rarity saw the figure passed through a door. She tried to open it but it wouldn't budge. She saw an air-vent and said "I can't believe I'm doing this." She levitated the cover of the vent and crawled in.

The white unicorn was trying to crawl through the ventilation shaft. She noticed another cover nearby. She levitated that cover off; thinking it was her destination, and exited the shaft.

She found herself in a white room, with huge fires inplace of walls and they seemed to be spreading towards the center. She saw a glowing sphere in the center of the room. She also saw...

"My friends?" The fashion-minded unicorn was shocked to see her friends surrounding the glowing sphere. There was also a duplicate of herself among them. They were wearing the Elements of Harmony.

"What in the world is going on." Rarity was trying to figure out what was going on. She noticed a sign on the ceiling. It said "Another Harmony." Her doppelganger and her friends were preparing to use the Elements until...

The fires had engulfed in a second and went out just as quickly. There she saw glass statues in place of her friends and her duplicate. 'Oh no.' she thought. She galloped towards the statue to find out that her friends and herself are made into glass. Once she saw this fact, the statues then started cracking then shattered into dust.

"No, this can't be right," Rarity said "surely this has to be a mistake?" She could not accept the simple fact that her friends had died. She tried to run away from the piles of dust but when she turned around the fires had started up again. She was surrounded she tried to escape but She too was caught in the flames. She screamed as loud as she can as the flames burned through her, changing her body into glass. Her voice echoed across the room as she finished turning into a glass statue. The vibrations from the screams were enough to shatter the statue.

TARDIS ??:00

Rarity had just woken up from an awful nightmare. She went to see her friends about this.

Meanwhile The Doctor was in the dwarf star alloyed room examining the date the Antikythera mechanism was displaying. He saw Amy walk in the room. she said "Doctor are you...Okay?"

The Doctor appeared worried. He was thinking about Rose, the companion he left in another dimension. He noticed Amy and said "Ah hello Pond." in a chipper voice.

"Don't tell me you're worrying about this Rose chick again?" she teased.

The Doctor said "What, me, worry? That's absurd. I'm sure Rose Tyler is fine in Pete's world. I've left her someone she can spend her time with."

Amy could see the worry in his eyes, but she decided not to dwell on the subject now. The doctor had finished writing down the date and left for the control room to find the chronosteel. Amy left afterwards.

Later Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Rarity entered the dwarf star alloyed room. Rarity explained her nightmare to her friends.

"That's awful!" Fluttershy said.

"First electrocution, now this?" Rainbow Dash said. "Have we ran into poison joke again?"

They checked for blue spots but find that they were still well spotless. Twilight said "Do you think someone trying to tell us something?"

Pinkie Pie said "Maybe they want us to find some glowing sphere or something?"

"Pinkie, we've been killed in our dreams trying to use the Elements on a glowing sphere. I think we should avoid it."

That's the second time this dream had happened, The details had been different but the circumstances are the same. Twilight mused on this trying to figure out what the dreams meant. Eventually the mares decided to end this discussion and left the room.

??? 9:00 PM 10/16/5666

The Doctor, Rory and Rainbow dash left the TARDIS to search for the chronosteel. They saw an empty planet devoid of life. Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Cheerilee, and Toola Roola also left the TARDIS to explore the planet.

Hours later The Doctor's group saw a sign that said.

All law breakers will be arrested and brought to the Stormcage-666. an inescapable prison overseen by state-of-the-art A.I.

The doctor looked at the flyer and said "Why do I have the feeling we will visit this place soon?"

Rainbow Dash said "Maybe you did something wrong during one of your trips?"

"Well I was put on trial once." The Doctor commented. "And there was that time where River Song tried to kill me in Germany and Utah."

That last sentence had confused Rainbow Dash. She tried to ask what happened in those place but was interrupted by some noise coming from the TARDIS. The Doctor and Rory had also heard the noise and went to investigate.

When they got back there were signs of a struggle. They went inside the TARDIS only to see that it was empty, and that there was a note on the doors that said:

This is a notice form the Athena division. The following lifeforms have been arrested by the Athena division for the horrible crime of existence, free will, and trespassing. One suspect was also arrested for the murder of "Dr. John Smith." All suspects have been arrested and are held at the Stromcage-666 without bail or chance of parole.

Below the notice was a list of names of the companions that stayed in the TARDIS. Rainbow Dash was shocked. She said "What the hay? I'm sure no good police force would do THAT!"

Rory said "I agree. What kind of police would arrest people for free will?"

The Doctor said "The corrupt kind Rory." As he read the bottom of the notice. it had the spatial coordinates of the prison and also said:

The Athena division is a subsidiary of Olympus Limited. Olympus Limited is not responsible for the actions of it's subsidiaries.

Bu this point Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Toola Roola, and Cheerilee had returned to find that most of their companions are gone. The Doctor explained what happened there and took everyone into the TARDIS and began piloting it to the coordinates. He was cross at the Athena division, and was poised to free his friends and investigate the prison.

A brunette woman had just walked in a room she said "Apollo what's the progress of the plan?"

Apollo said "So far so good sis. We have taken 41 of the 108 planets we need to succeed."

"OK then." She said. "Where's Max?"

"He and Hera went to negotiate a merger with the Maldovarium. Thought it'd be a good time to do so while it's leader had vanished."

"Do you think the Silence know anything about his disappearance?"

"Yeah they only tell their secrets to Max and no-one else as part of the deal we have with them."

"I see." She left the room. A few hours later she saw Hades in one of the boardrooms. He said "Did you find out anything Athena?"

Athena said "No Apollo only told me that we have only 41 planets."

Hades said "We must find out why we have to collect 108 planets. I fear that Max Zeus is hiding something from us."

"Why? and this better be important. I had to let Ares take control of the Athena division for several centuries so that I can help you."

"He has been a lot more secretive since the Silence showed up. I think he made a secret deal with them that we don't even know about." He said. Hermes then entered the room.

Hades said "Did you find anything?"

Hermes tool off his hood to reveal a robots head. he then took his wings off his shoes and made a screen. The screen depicted a news report form Earth year 2012. The anchor said "Riots have started out in front of the NASA headquarters, and other space programs around the world. The protester are demanding why half the stars are gone, even though that scientist say that those stars never existed in the first place. Authorities had to step in to..." Hermes had put his wings back on.

Athena and Hades were confused. Athena said "We are the heirs to a company that controls most the universe, and yet we are not as omniscient as our namesakes."

"That is not to say our namesakes are not omniscient. What are we doing? Why are we doing this? I fear that when our plans succeed we will be come the rulers of a chaos like before the big bang."

The three Olympians then left the room after receiving word that Max Zeus had called them for a meeting. Still pondering if they were doing the right thing.

Han ⛎ Beginning's Loop

TARDIS ??:00

The flash had subsided.

Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Rarity found the Doctor. He said "Hello, what's going on?"

Twilight said "Well..." She went to explain their sudden telepathy.

"Telepathy?" The Doctor said. "This is interesting."

"So is it bad?" said Fluttershy.

The Doctor said "Well I wouldn't know I'm also telepathic but I don't use it much. However the circumstances are suspect. We'll look into it later."

Twilight said "Alright. but what about the nightmares?"

"Nightmares?" The Doctor said.

Rainbow Dash said "Yeah recently, I had this dream where me and my friends were turned to ash and dust by lightning."

Rarity said "Then I had a dream when we turned into shattered glass."

Pinkie Pie said "Then I had this crazy nightmare. Me and Twilight and the others were at a beach, and there was this tide, and we got swept in and we started to dissolve, ad it was scary."

Applejack said "What does this all mean Professor?"

The Doctor said "Well it's possible that those dreams are a sign that your telepathic powers were [starting up] like a car engine, except not really."

"You think these dreams are a sign of our telepathy." Twilight said

"It's possible but that doesn't mean you'll stop having them the instant you have psychic conversations." said the Doctor. "I want you to write down your dreams if you start having those nightmares again." He then took out some notebooks and gave them to the ponies along with a pen. "I'm not sure how well you will write."

"We'll manage. Thanks Professor." said Applejack. The 6 ponies left the room.

'Do you think that whatever this is...' Fluttershy thought.

'I don't know but we need to be more careful.' thought Twilight.

'Okay.' thought Applejack.

'My lips are sealed.' thought Pinkie Pie.

'Fine.' thought Rainbow Dash.

'Of course darling.' said Rarity.

The Doctor's group then left the TARDIS to find the chronosteel again.

Toola Roola, Starsong, Cheerilee, Flitter, and Cloudchaser went out with the group this time. A black truck passed them by. The three pegasi were discussing the weather while Cheerilee was looking at the scenery. Toola Roola however saw Cassandra enter a building nearby and entered.

Cassandra noticed the multicolored-maned unicorn and said "Hello, I see you want to know something?"

Toola Roola said "Yes. I know you predict the future."

"Yes?" Cassandra began shuffling.

"I think I'm being haunted. can you tell me what I can do?" Toola Roola said.

Cassandra stopped shuffling and placed down 7 cards. Two on the upper left, two on the upper right, and 3 on the bottom. She flipped the first card on the upper left. the card depicted Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle in their tree-house. There were three cups hanging outside with a forth cup seen in the window. Cassandra said "I see your dissatisfaction runs deep Toola Roola. Let's see why your not satisfied." She flipped the card next to it. The card was upside down. it depicted a party Pinkie Pie was throwing and 9 cups. There was a 9 on the card although it like the rest of the card was upside down and resembled a 6. Cassandra said "Your family must had broke apart no?"

The multicolored maned unicorn said "My father was ... difficult. My mother passed away when I was a filly."

Cassandra said "I see. Now that I unearth you past let us see the present." She flipped the first card. Toola Roola was shocked. the card depicted er, blindfolded and bound and surrounded by 8 swords all of witch were pointed at her. The card had the number 8 on the upper right "Oh dear." said Cassandra. "This card tells me you got something you want to hide. This may be the cause of whomever is chasing you." She flipped the next card. The card depicts a white unicorn stallion and a pink alicorn pony below a tree that bore fruit. The card also had "VI" on the upper right and "The Lovers" are written at the bottom. Cassandra said "The Lovers huh? Looks like you have a choice to make."

"Wait I thought these cards were about the present." Toola Roola said.

"The three card at the bottom depict the present yes, but they may tell you what to do if you want a bright future. There is one card left before we can predict the outcome." She flipped the fifth card. The card depicts someone waking up with 9 swords over her head. a 9 was also written in the upper right. "The 9 of swords. Now I know what you must do. You must tell your fellow travelers your problems."

"What?" Toola Roola said.

"I believe I'm not the first person you told about your problems." said Cassandra. "You told your closest friends about your problems. But you must realize that you have other friends and people who would like to be your friend. You can't stay sheltered from your past." As she flipped the final two cards. The first one depicts the pink alicorn again, levitating some water from a jug to the lake underneath a starry sky. "The Star" was written on the bottom of this card and "XVII" on the upper right. "This is The Star. it tells me that you must have hope that your friends will not turn on you." The last card is Judgement "And this card is Judgement. I believe this spread tells me in layman's terms [The truth will set you free.]"

"I see." Toola Roola said "Thanks for the advice. She left the building and went to regroup with her friends.

When she saw Starsong and Cheerilee, they were still with Flitter and Cloudchaser. The 5 returned to the TARDIS noticing an ambulance on the road.

Corinth-VI 7:00 AM

The Doctor, River and Rose are vising the clock tower again. They noticed that some crowd from before around the tower. One man said "You want to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the Sisyphean Clock Tower?"

The group was baffled by the request. the Doctor said "No, wasn't that yesterday?"

The man chucked and said "I see we have a newcomer here. let me tell you about the history of this planet..." He began to ramble about the history of Corinth-VI.

River said "Well, this is strange."

The Doctor said "Yeah I know." He noticed something sparkling in the stone ouroboros on the tower.

Rose said "Doctor did you see that?"

"Yeah I think I did." The Doctor said. The group decided to find the others and get back to the TARDIS. They started with Amy and Rory who were with an ambulance.

Rory said "Doctor what's going on?" He explained that the patient from yesterday had healed and hurt himself on the same spiked furniture.

The Doctor said "Never mind I'll tell you when we get back to the TARDIS." The five them met up with the bearers of the Elements of Harmony who were baffled that the day was almost like yesterday. They then met up with Toola Roola's group and then went back to the TARDIS. They passed an alleyway with a manhole.

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor and his companions had regrouped back at the TARDIS. Lyra and Bonbon were just walking in the control with Minty and Ditzy and the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Lyra said "hey guys did you find any chronosteel?"

"No." the Doctor said. He he went to get something.

Bonbon said "Is something wrong?"

Rainbow Dash said "Yeah almost everything that was happening yesterday is happening today."

"Almost everything?" Minty said.

The rainbow-maned pegasus said "We didn't see Cassandra today."

The Doctor took out a device that looked like a 20th century tape recoder with only one spool. He said "there you are you old thing."

River Song said "Doctor what in the name of sanity is that?"

The Doctor said "It's my timey-wimey detector. It goes ding whenever there's stuff."

"What kind of stuff?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Timey-wimey hmm stuff." The Doctor said. He started up the device. and it started dinging. He examined it and said "I knew it. We are trapped in a time loop."

"A time what?" Flitter said.

The Doctor said "Ever have Deja Vu before?"

"Um yeah." the pegasus with the pink bow said.

"Well it isn't like that. Deja Vu implies time being rewound somehow. This situation is that time started over form a certain point." The Doctor said.

"Can you use it to find out what's casing all this?" Twilight said.

"Of course." The Doctor said. "but first we must find out if there are any similarities and differences between this and the first iterations."

Pinkie Pie said "Well my pinkie sense told me that one guy was about to get hit by a door both times. I saved him before it could happened though."

Rose said "Then there's that anniversary we saw."

Amy said "Then there's the guy who had to take an ambulance."

"That covers the similarities Pond, Rose, Pinkie. But what about the differences?" The Doctor said.

Twilight said "Well we didn't met that fortune teller today."

Toola Roola said "I did."

Cheerilee said "There was also that van which wasn't there then either."

Cloudchaser said "I remember that van."

Just then they heard some noise coming form outside. They went out to check. They saw some Silurians move into a black van with some sacks. The vans were being chased by several police cars.

Cloudchaser said "That's the van."

The Doctor said "I think we found our culprits." He then chased after the van. The others followed.

Corinth-VI 5:00 PM

The chase went on for hours. The van was driving around town with Scylla and Charybdis driving. Scylla said "Great. Now the cops are chasing us, again!"

Charybdis said "Hand on we're losing them."

Scylla looked back and saw some people were chasing her along with the police. She saw the Doctor and said "Now we are being chased by more people."

The van made a sharp turn into a narrow alley Charybdis saw something in the distance. The police cars were too wide to fit there. The card circled around the building. Scylla saw that the cars are gone abut the Doctor's group were still chasing them. She fired at some debris attempting to block their path. The two Silurians were able to block their path. Charybdis saw a manhole and stopped the van. She said "We can fit through there." the aliens took the sacks and dropped out of the vehicle. Then they entered the sewers and put the manhole back on.

The black van drove out of the alleyway and crashed. The Doctor's group got through the block and passed the manhole. When they got there they saw the van had crashed and that there was no one inside.

The Doctor said "Great. We lost them." Everyone them went back to the TARDIS.

Coronth-VI 11:55 PM

Scylla and Charybdis returned to the clock tower. Scylla said "We put this place in a time loop so that we can rob the bank. And you get the cops chasing us, and why can't we take the same money twice?"

Charybdis said "The Blinovitch Limitation effect, That's why. We can't bring temporal copies of the same object unless you want to destroy the universe! Our goal is to rob the bank until we have all their money. Not commit a paradox."

Scylla said "Then why do we rob the same bank then?" as she went to the terminal of the ouroboros.

Charybdis said "I know what vaults we've cleaned and what we haven't. We are almost done. Just a few more days and we'll be set for life."

Scylla said "Fine." She hacked the computer again. The ouroboros stopped at midnight. The two went back in the transparent tower and a flash had engulfed the planet again.

Postrema ♒ A Road Not Taken

Atlantis 10:00 AM 3/10/5657

The Doctor, Amy, Rory and Rose were still looking for a chronosteel. They saw a man sitting on some steps nearby. He had a bag with him. The man said "Oi, you the Doctor?"

The Doctor said "Um..."

The man said "Never mind. Are you looking for some meteor?"

Rory, Amy, and Rose were baffled. Rory said "Depends, Why are you asking?"

The man handed the group his bag and said "The cosmos works im mysterious ways. Time can go wrong at the drop of a hat y'know?" He looked at the street behind and saw several people turn right at a tree. The leaves were falling off onto a yellow brick road to the left. The man said "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I'm sorry I'm unable to travel both. I guess that's one of a time machine's uses. To see what would happen if things went differently."

The Doctor said "Well you could say that. Although time could be rewritten If I had a time machine I would never willingly change the past."

The man said "No all changed you would make to the timeline would be accidental save for some cases. But not everyone shares your wish to preserve history." He looked at the path and said "One could go the way of the could and see what would they do, or one could take the other just as fair," He looked at the yellow road and said "After all. It's grassy and desperate for wear."

Amy said "What are you getting at?"

The man said "There's is always a choice so long as time keeps going. I took the one less traveled and I like to think that made all the difference. Well be seeing you and BTW you should check your fortune." The man left.

The Doctor looked inside the bag and saw...

"Chronosteel?" Indeed there was chronosteel inside. One of the pieces was a vivid violet and had the sign and constellation for Aquarius. The other 13 had Antlia, Apus, Auriga, Caelum, Camelopardalis, Lupus, Puppis, Musca, Octans, Dorado, Mensa, Columbia, and Centaurus.

The Doctor closed the bag and looked at the yellow brick road. He noticed that something was wrong. He said "Ready to see the wizard?" and the group decided to take the left path.

Ponyville ??:00

Rarity was packing her things. She had enough of that fashion show. She packed up every accessory and fabric she could carry tor ready herself for her self-imposed exile. The white unicorn said How could this happen. I don't understand this My designs were flawless until they were getting greedy. She levitated her briefcase and exited her boutique wearing a veil and a dress to conceal her identity.

She remembered her first fashion show. How her friends "suggestions" ruined everything for her. Hoity-Toity called her designs trash and everypony else laughed the models off the stage. Her name was forever ruined.

The white unicorn came to a fork on the road. She saw Pinkie Pie move along the left path. The pink mare didn't even notice her. Rarity thought 'The nerve! She didn't even notice me. I guess I would understand with my reputation the way it is but considering how she ruined it she had no right to do so." Rarity saw several other ponies move on the right path before thinking 'That's the closest way tot he train station. I'll start a life anew in Manehatten." and took the right path.

When she got to the train station she felt wrong somehow. She sighed and got on bard the train to Manehatten.

??? ??:00

The Maestro of Discord had asked Donna Noble to come here. She said "What are your orders my liege?"

The Maestro said "I like the sound of that." in the Master's voice. "I want you to go to The Doctor but first." He placed his hand on Donna Noble's forehead. The voice of Discord was screaming 'What are you doing!?' in his head. The color flowed back as she screamed. She remembers A man with a neck tie and a blur box. She remembers the time she met the man. A red spider centaur, a flood, her wedding being ruined. She remembers an alternate timeline with the stars disappearing, She remember the man sealing those memories to save her life. She fainted.

The Master's voice said "I know what The Silence wants and let it be clear. That planet must not be allowed to return to this pain of existence. I don't care how many of my own rules I have to break, but I'll be damned if I let them kill the Doctor or take over the universe."

Discord's voice deadpanned 'I didn't know you had rules. Their kind of boring if you ask me.'

The Master's voice said "Of course they would not be to your liking, they are a sign of order." The Maestro began to pick Donna Noble up. The voice of the Master continued "In any other circumstance I would gladly try to kill the Doctor any chance I get. But I will not let anyone else take his blood so long as I live."

'I know. I found out the hard way.' Discord's voice said.

The Master's voice said "Come on. After we drop Donna off. We need to see the Trickster."

The Maestro teleported out with Donna Noble.

Ponyville ??:00

Pinkie Pie was crying in Sugarcube Corner. Her mane and tail had straightened out. She was surrounded by pile of rocks, a bag of flower, other inanimate objects and her pet Gummy. She saw a pink door to her left and a blue door to her right.

The pink earth pony was depressed. She saw that her friends were doing something behind her back. She found out form Spike that her friends really didn't want anything to do with her after all. 'They just like the parties.' she thought. 'Just like everypony else.' She went in the blur door passing a calendar with today marked.

Once inside she saw that various kitchen knives and thought 'Maybe it's time for me to go.' She had felt fear and sadness.

She exited the blue room and bakery thinking maybe some fresh air would got her mind off her so-called friends.

Atlantis 10:05 AM

River Song, Ditzy Doo, and Minty were still following Homonoia. Ditzy though a series of accidents found herself underneath a cardboard box.

River said "Come on then go already!" Homonoia was just spending time with Lyra and Bonbon.

Minty said "Maybe she can be rusted. It doesn't look like nothing's wrong with her."

River said "Really? I find it hard to believe that a single pony, all alone, was nearby the Siren Goat and and only escape with few scratches and injures."

Ditzy was still trying to move form under the box when she said "Why not? You found us inside a strange prison helping one of The Doctor's exes."

"I've had the benefit of seeing you before your world went to hell." River said. "Her on the other hand..."

Meanwhile Homonoia had finished talking with the two mares and left the area. Later she had looked around for other life forms and noticed a cardboard box. She scanned the box for lifeforms and saw a signature. She decided go another way.

River, Minty, and Ditzy were hiding under the card board box Ditzy found. They followed the blue mare while under the box.

Homonoia eventually met up with a fortuneteller in a dark alleyway. The blue mare said "Did you do your job Apate?"

The fortuneteller said "Yes. They are now in their own little world. Now you said that this plan will succeed not matter what but you or your employer yet to tell me how."

The robotic mare looked around and said "If the plan succeeds then we would have neutralized a huge threat to Olympus limited and the Silence's plans. If it fails then my programming will ensure that the plan reaches it's final stages."

"I see." Apate said. She noticed a cardboard box there and saw it move. "I should go now. I have to keep appearances up in case someone wised up to my plans. I'll be in a small building at the end of the yellow brick road."

"Affermative." Homonoia said. She then left the alleyway. Apate also left the alley to go back to her building.

When both were gone River removed the cardboard box and said "We have to tell the Doctor." The trio went to find the Doctor and this yellow brick road.

Ponyville ??:00

Rainbow Dash had just appeared at the parade celebrating Mare-Do-Well's heroic efforts. The blue pegasus had crashed the parade however and chased her all over Ponyville. She had chased the costumed mare to a fork where she was baffled. She saw several Mare-Do-Wells move to the left, but one took the right path back to where the parade started. Rainbow Dash took the right path and unmasked the pony in front of the populace, only to find out it was Pinkie Pie.

The other Mare-Do-Wells unmasked themselves as Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity. They friends tried to explained why they pulled this charade. But she couldn't hear them over the populace booing at and insulting Rainbow Dash.

"Hero? you're a zero!" one pony shouted.

"Mare-Do-Well was a better hero than you!" another yelled.

"You're a selfish, vain, bitch!" yet another pony bellowed.

Rainbow Dash took one look at her friends. She glare at them with tears pouring out of her eyes. She had felt betrayed, stabbed in the back, she thought they were her friends. She shouted "You want to play the hero? Fine! I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" and flew away in tears.

"Good riddance!" and several variants were yelled at her as the rainbow maned pegasus flew to a giant storm cloud near the other side of the Everfree Forest. As far away from Ponyville and other towns as she could get.

Atlantis 11:00 AM

Toola Roola, Starsong, Cheerilee, Flitter, Cloudchaser, Lyra and Bonbon were taking care of Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. They saw The Doctor and his companions move on the yellow brick road.

The herd of ponies decided to see what going on. Meanwhile The Doctor found River with Minty and Ditzy. The Doctor said "What is going on here?"

River said "Hello sweetie. I think this building may had some secrets hidden away."

The Doctor looked at the building and looked back to his group. By that point the ponies had caught up with the others. Meaning everyone was there. Everyone except...

"Where's Twilight and her friends?" The Doctor said.

Lyra said "I don't know. haven't seen them since we went looking for the chronosteel."

Cheerilee noticed that another pony was also missing. She said "Where's Homonoia?"

The door in the building opened and out came Apate. She said "Welcome to my humble fortunetelling business." She looked at the ponies with the Doctor and said "Are you missing some horses?"

River said "How did you know?" She didn't trust the fortuneteller one bit. Nether did the Doctor.

Apate said "My current guest, a blue pony to be exact, came here saying that some of her friends went missing. I told her I haven't seen them but she insisted that she saw them come to this building."

River thought 'I bet she had seen them inside.'

Apate said "She inside right now." She led the group in the lobby. When they got inside they saw Homonoia crying in the lobby saying "I tried to warn them."

Apate lied "She claims I had something to do with their disappearance. But I told her I had noting to do with it."

River, Minty and Ditzy knew they saw Apate with Homonoia. The former knew that the blue erath pony and fortune teller could not be trusted. The Doctor said "Would you mind if I took a quick look around?"

Apate said "Of course but I guarantee you wont find in this building."

River whispered "And I guarantee that we will." The Doctor's group split up to check every part of the building leaving Homonoia behind.

Dodge Junction ??:00

Applejack was working at the cherry orchard. The petals of the blossoms were flying as she kicked several trees to make the cherries fall. The orange earth pony felt incomplete however. She lost the rodeo in Canterlot and wanted to earn enough money to fix the roof. But she lie to her friends saying she'll send them the money soon. She knew it would take a long time for her to make enough money to fix the roof. She continued to work on the orchard. She felt alone and more stressed out than usual.

She said "Ah can't come back yet. Not until I have enough money to fix the roof." And continued to kick the trees as fast as she can. "I told miss Jubilee that I can buck all these cherries at once." and proceeded to work on the trees feeling tired from all the work.

??? ??:00

The Maestro found someone in a black cloak and said "So you're the Trickster huh?" in the master's voice.

The figure looked at the Maestro with his eyeless face and said "Yes I'm the Trickster. I sense you want something?"

The Maestro said "No thanks. I know how you operate. I want no contracts for their for little girls and I want no deals for they will inevitably screw me over in the end. I Just want time beetle just as a pet."

The Trickster was a little confused. "You know that would qualify as a deal anyway right?" he said.

The Maestro said "I gonna try and set things right, but my other half wanted to spread a little mischief. he seems a little surprised that there's a pantheon named for him though."

"I heard about your revival. I helped caused it remember. Your cult were very helpful in setting up the ritual." the Trickster said.

"And the Silence were helpful in gathering the ingredients." The Maestro said.

The Trickster smiled and handed him a Time Beetle and said "What do you want it to eat?"

"That's for me to know and you to never find out." the Maestro said. He took the insect and left making sure that the Trickster didn't change anything in the beetle.

Ponyville ??:00

Fluttershy was crying in her ruined cottage. She saw that she had became a cruel monster. She paid her bills to Iron Will and decided to sped the rest of her life in her cottage after terrorizing and traumatizing the townsponies. She remembered her wrecking the marketplace in blind fury after somepony took her lunch. She saw the fearful expression on everypony's face. She saw their fear, their desire to flee from her, their rage, some ponies even went as far as to call her a monster. and she was right. She remembered how even earlier than that she bullied the mayor into resigning form office and the power vacuum was enough to tear Ponyville apart. She saw her pet rabbit Angel comfort and said "Thank you Angel." She saw a blur door to her left and a bloodstained knife to her right. She saw the blood on the knife and thought too perfect a symbol. A symbol of her anger and rage and how far off she had been. She wondered how would the ponies react if she wasn't there to cause them grief anymore. On the other hand she could try to make amends, try to repair herself before she makes things worse on her and the town.

'What do I do?' she thought. She kept considering her choices until she cried herself to sleep.

London 5:00 PM 9/14/2012

Jack and Gwen came to Martha's house and saw Hermes there. After Jack examined and fixed the robot He explained about why he's here. He explained about the Silence and Olympus Limited.

After the exposition Martha said "I've heard about that place. Wasn't it formally call Titanic something?"

Gwen and Mickey agreed. jack said to the robot "Can you call for help?"

Hermes said "Yes, But it would take several days. The Silence would strike at any time."

Jack took a thumb drive and asked the machine to place some data on it. The he asked Hermes to go find some help in case they come. The robot complied and then vanished after downloading the requested data into the thumb drive.

Gwen said "What did you ask him?"

Jack said "For help. The Doctor may need some reinforcements for what may come next. Come on. We need to find Rex."

Jack and Gwen were ready to leave. Martha said "I'm going with you."

Mickey said "Me too."

Jack said "It's too dangerous." forgetting that both were once companions of the Doctor.

After a while Gwen said "Let them come. They have some experience, and we're kinda shorthanded at this time."

Jack said "Fine. But I can't be held responsible if your family is in trouble again."

Martha said "You weren't responsible for what happened to them last time." The group then left the house.

Ponyville ??:00

Twilight Sparkle was wandering the forest alone with noting but a bag of essentials. She knew what she had done. he had force Ponyville into chaos with naught bur a spell and her old rag doll. She and Princess Celestia were the only ones immune to that curse. The princess was incredibly disappointing in her student. The purple unicorn knew that she had to say goodbye to her friends. She knew she didn't deserve them, not after this. But after Celestia was done taking to her she took some supplies and ran away with out saying a word and headed to the forest.

The purple unicorn wandered the forest until she came to a fork in the road. She took the right path and hoped that a cockatrice would just come by and turned her to stone again. She was all alone in a forest she didn't understand. And yet she felt deep down that it wasn't supposed to be this way. She decided to rest for now and hope that fate would whisk her away to nothingness.
