A woman looked out upon her world from the terrace of her palace. She looked to be a young woman barely in her thirties. Red hair came from her head flowing like a river moving with the wind, only there was no wind. The clothing she wore was not what you would think for a daily routine. It was armour, golden armour smooth like stones on a river bank or on the coast of the sea.

The world in question was Equestria, a magical world, one that was still young and oblivious to the danger rising. But the woman was not oblivious to the danger she knew it well for she was not just a woman she was Epona goddess and creator of this young world or at least portion of it. A storm was rising in the south; the pegasus were at their normal work unknowable to the turmoil of their goddess and the choices she would soon make.

A whimper came from behind her, realizing what it was she rushed back inside. Quickly making her way back inside she came to a bed on the far left of the room and found the source of the whimper. Two unicorns lay next to each other, one with a white coat and pink mane. The other had a darker coat of blue, almost purple, and a mane as dark and sparkling as the night sky on a cloudless night. The darker coated one was the source of the whimpers. She was the younger of the two and was more sensitive to the types of dreams that the young ones have. The goddess came to their side stroking the younger's mane, calming her.

"Oh my daughters," Epona sighed "How has it come to this?"

A knock came from her door accompanied by the sound of an immensely nervous voice that, despite her sadness, brought a smile to her face.

"May I enter your highness?" the voice asked.

"Come in Starswirl," Epona said gracefully, "You are always welcome old friend."

A male unicorn enters with a look on his face that spoke only of reluctance and dread. He was a young stallion with a white coat and mane to match. A stubble of a beard was beginning, but not yet fully grown out. He wore a plain grey cloak and a blue pointed hat. Although the point was bent, almost drooping, as if, the hat mirrored the young stallion's demeanor.

"I fear the time has come my Queen.", Starswirl quavered. There it was he has said it. The moment that he, his Queen, the Pillars, and even that strange alien had prepared for.

"Everypony and everything is ready then?" his Queen responded.

"Yes, even that Doctor fellow with his box", Starswirl said with a small amount of distrust.

"You are still suspicious of him?", Epona concernedly said.

"He said it himself! He's a madman or madpony or whatever he is. Even admitted being a liar as well"

"I've known him a long time Starswirl and I trust him completely. Do you not trust me?", she asked with unease.

Starswirl looked to her face, her beautiful, graceful, alien and ageless face. Even in her non-pony form he could still see that beauty through her eyes and would always trust them.

"Always and forever, my Queen", he responded reverently while bowing.

"Then please trust him", Epona nearly pleaded. "I know he's odd and quite eccentric, but he has saved many worlds before and we will need his help in stopping my husband."

"Very well my Queen I shall," Starswirl said with great conviction.

"Then we must prepare," Epona said determinedly. While saying this she brought her arms up above her head. They shimmered with a rainbow aura. The aura then began to cover her whole body and as it did her body and the armour on it began to change form. Wings grew from her back, her hair grew longer and arms and legs changed shape. Toes on her feet and fingers on her hands disappeared as they turned into hooves. A horn grew from her head in the midst of her mane and her face extended into a muzzle. Starswirl stood amazed seeing the results of the transformation. There she was, the goddess of his world, transformed into an alicorn! He had seen this before from his goddess and from her husband but it still amazed him.

"You're staring again Starswirl", Epona said cheekily

Blushing Starswirl quickly looked away saying "Apologies your highness it still amazes each time". The alicorn goddess smiled sweetly as a mother would to shy child. "Perhaps we should begin planning", Starswirl said hastily clearly wanting to change the situation he was in. He called to the door he had come out of earlier, "Stygian, you may come in my friend."

A stallion with a medium gray coat and a mane of moderate cerulean and strands of arctic blue walked in at Starswirl's bidding. He was a younger pony than Starswirl but had the same maturity as the older stallion in his eyes, as well as a shared anxiety between the two. Although Stygian noticed something about his friend.

"Are you ok Starswirl?", Stygian asked.

"Of course I am!", Starswirl replied slightly panicked, "Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well you seem to be sweating profusely and is your face is bright red like an apple."

"How ready are the Pillars?," Starswirl inquired hurriedly not wanting to go back to the situation he just escaped.

Taken aback by his friend's abruptness Stygian had to quickly compose himself before answering. "Quite ready," he responded with slight humor despite what was to come, "Rock Hoof has been sharpening his shovel for the last hour. If I didn't know any better I would say he and the others looked bored." he finished with a small chuckle.

He did know better however, he saw fear, the tension and the anxiousness of his friends. He couldn't blame them, they were going to go do battle with a god. Not just any god though, their god, the maker of their world and the god of time. Kronos. His betrayal hurt all of them, but perhaps not as abundantly or as deeply as it did to Starswirl and Epona, the wife and the student he left behind.

"Then perhaps we should alleviate their boredom", Starswirl jested, clearly trying to brighten her mood, "Time has come, we should get them ready." He looked to Epona for approval. She gave a nod; it was indeed time.

"Go to the temple of Ponhenge I shall meet you there", Epona instructed. "I must go retrieve The Doctor and tell him that we are prepared." Or as prepared as we can be, she thought worriedly.

The Doctor pranced around the Tardis nearly tripping on his multi-colored scarf in his haste. Sarah Jane had warned him to slow down. He couldn't though, not now, not when this fledgling world depended on him, not when the whole of the universe and multiverse depended on him. The titan had to be stopped, he regretted that it had come to this. He hated when he was pushed to a corner, just like on Skaro with Davros and the Daleks. Forced to choose between what was right for the universe and those he cared and was responsible for.

"Sarah, have you found the Dimensional Stabilizer?" he called out in a rather impatient tone. "It should be in the jelly baby closet."

"Yes Doctor I have it," Sarah responded with no small amount of exasperation, "Along with all the other strange sounding items you demanded. Although I don't understand why the stabilizer was with the jelly babies."

"What? Have you never put your sweets with a tool that seals dimensional rifts?" the Doctor responded as seriously as any being could.

Before Sarah could even counter that with a statement about how she didn't have anything like that or have access to one. There came four knocks at the Tardis door. For some strange reason, Sarah felt that was an omen to something, but she wasn't given time to dwell on it. For the Doctor sprinted for the door controls like the madman he was and flipped the switch and ran to the opening doors. When coming on the opening doors he was greeted by a pony, that pony being of course Epona. He expected nothing less, Sarah, on the other hand, was still getting used to the world of Equestria, especially the part where the moment she and the Doctor exit the Tardis that they themselves turn into ponies.

She didn't remember much after that, except for the sound of concerned voices surrounding her. She must have created quite the fuss because moments after she heard the voices she was then swept back to the Tardis facing a very stern Doctor. The Doctor proceeded to give her a lecture about not creating a scene, that they had to be inconspicuous. Sarah’s response to that, was say when have you ever been inconspicuous. That earned her a scolding, and a rant about how he was the sneakiest thing in the universe. How it was ridiculous that she would say something like that when moments before she flopped to the ground faster than a tripped cyberman just because of a little body reforming.

She just stopped listening after that, even though she really wanted to say that a “little body reforming” wasn’t the norm for non-Time Lords. Instead, she chose to stay quiet, let him have his rant and waited until he told her what they were doing in a different reality. Sarah was brought back from her reminiscing by the pony leader or goddess, as the Doctor had instructed her to say, speaking.

"Doctor are you ready?", the alicorn queen asked urgently "The others are waiting at Ponhenge."

"Yes I do believe I am ready", he replied confidently "Sarah is everything on list out and ready?"

"Yes doctor everything is here on the control console like you asked", Sarah exhaustingly replied, "Much more heavy than you let on."

"Then we should be off!", he exclaimed, "Your Highness, won't you join us? Much faster than flying." The Doctor finished while spread out his arm to welcome the alicorn inside his machine. Epona enter while reverting back to her humanoid form. She gave him a small smile, but still quite somber. Time Lords were always strange; many stayed out of the affairs of other races. The Doctor was not one of those, he was more like their creator, her husband, or at least when Kronos cared for other life, now she didn't know what he cared for.

"So Ponhenge, Milady?", the Doctor said while tapping the keys and turning the dials on the console.

"Yes Doctor", the goddess replied, "There we can follow Kronos to the alternate world with your help of course."

"On we go then!" he shouted, a mad glee was in his smile and he engaged the engines of his ship.

On we go then, the goddess thought to herself. Off we go to change the fate of all creation. Though, I fear this day may have larger repercussions then any of us can see. There is a shadow over time that I cannot pierce. A darkness. No doubt, put there by you, my husband. I can't help, but wonder, if even you can see past your own self made shadow.

Author's Note

Hello, I'm fairly new to this fandom (a few years new so not brand new). This is the second fanfic I am trying my hand at (the other on fanfic.net under the same name I have here). So I am sure that I'm going to start a bit rusty if anyone knows where a good group or possible individuals that could be proofreaders I would appreciate any recommendations that could be given.
Anyway, lets see how this goes!

Also, Fallout belongs to Bethesda. My Little Pony belongs to Hasbro.
And the amazing story, of which I'm spinning this from and is, of course, non-canon, that blended both universes together belongs to Kkat
