The Doctor felt short. He could tell because as he fell about the TARDIS, his head barely reached the control console. He wondered if he had regenerated, which was the most likely answer in this crisis. But the funny thing was, he couldn't remember regenerating, which was frustrating since he usually remembered everything.

He was flung into the air, the fell onto the TARDIS console. His head spun as he tried to focus. He reached out to grab a lever on the console, then saw something that made him fall right off the console. He slid down the console, accidentally pulling the brakes on the way down. The TARDIS stopped in mid-flight. The Doctor gasped and looked at his hand to make sure this wasn't a dream of some kind. His hand was a hoof! He looked at the rest of his body and saw three more hooves, a hourglass on his rump, and a chesnut-coloured coat. Not a jacket coat, but a fur coat. Not a fur coat, but the kind of coats that animals have. He also saw that he was, in fact, a pony. "Oh, my..." The Doctor said. "What in the..."

The TARDIS shook as it landed somewhere. "Oh, I guess I should probably find out where the TARDIS has landed." He walked to the door. Then he looked up at the handle, high above his head. "Blast it," he said, angrily. "Not only am I a pony, I'm a Shetland pony! Now I can't reach the bloody handle!" He jumped to see if he could reach it. He stopped after a few hops, for he could not reach it. He kicked the door in frustration. Then there was a knock.

"Are you okay in there?" a girl-ish voice said. "Yes, I'm fine, in most ways!" The Doctor said back. "Actually, that was a lie. I'm kind of in a jam here. I'm going to slide a key under the door. Can you get it, unlock the door, and get it open? I'm a bit too short to reach the handle." "Okay, I guess," the voice outside replied.

The Doctor ran back into the TARDIS. He looked around and saw his key laying on the ground. He grabbed it. Well, he tried to grab it. "Bloody hooves," he muttered as he kept trying to get a grip on the key. He eventually decided that the mouth was the best way to do this. "Hopefully the person outside can stand mouth germs." He pushed the keys under the door. There was a click as it unlocked, and then the door was opened. He looked to see who opened the door. He looked up, expecting to see a human there. But there was no one. He looked down to walk out, and saw a purple pony there. Scratch that last part. Purple UNICORN. The Doctor gasped.

"Oh my..." he said. He stared all around him. The scenery was so colorful, the sun too bright, everything was too cheery. It was like a child's cartoon show, but in 3D, and all real. "Wow," the unicorn said. "It must have taken some serious magic to make the inside bigger than the outside." "What?" The Doctor replied. "Magic? As in, REAL magic? Not fake magic, or science?" "Uh, yes. Real magic," the unicorn said. "Did you get hit in the head or something, because you're acting that way. You've also got a bloody nose. And, about the magic, everypony knows we've got magic." The Doctor started laughing. He fell over he was laughing so hard.

"What in the hay is so funny?" the unicorn asked. "You said everypony!" The Doctor said, his eyes watering. "EVERYPONY!" The unicorn stood there with an annoyed look on her face until he stopped laughing. The Doctor stood back up. "This place is incredible! Talking ponies, and unicorns to boot! What is your name then?" "Twilight Sparkle," the unicorn said with a little uncertianty. "Twilight Sparkle!" The Doctor began laughing again. "This place is so cartoony!" "What's your name then, mister?" "Oh, I'm the Doctor!" "Doctor of what?" Twilight asked "Just the Doctor, thank you." "Okay, so, where are you from, because you act like you're not from here." "I am from Gallifrey," The Doctor replied. "and... that's not anywhere near here, is it? I have absolutely no idea where I am.

"I was in my TARDIS, the big blue box, and I was travelling along, when all of the sudden, I'm a pony! I have no idea what happened!" "What were you before then?" Twilight asked. The Doctor was puzzled for a minute, then realized what she meant. "Oh, well, I was a Time Lord!" Twilight sat there, confused. "It's, similar to a human," The Doctor hinted.

"Oh, okay!" she replied. "I've read about humans! Supposedly, they existed before ponies, but another reference says their from a far away planet. I like to believe that there's a completely different land, filled with different creatures, but of course, I feel it would impossible to reach the land where they live." "Well, my box here can take you there!" The Doctor said. "But for now, I have to find out what happened. I arrived here somehow, and I need to know how to get out. Can you help?"

"I guess I could," she replied. "I can search for magic signs, and other disturbances." "My TARDIS can scan for spikes in different radiations. And I hope that we can find an answer soon. I'm starting to get hungry."

"Well, I can get you something to eat," Twilight said. "Okay, sure. Let's go to your place and get some food," The Doctor said. "Or wherever you ponies eat." "My place," Twilight said. "You can read up on our land there, too. I live in a library, after all!" 'Wow,' The Doctor thought. 'She must be very smart. That's a good sign. I guess I should go.' They went to go to the library.

The library was a tall tree that stood slightly higher than the normal house he saw around the town, and had windows and doors in it. They walked in. Inside was a gigantic library. It may not have been the largest ever, but it was by far one of the most impressive personal collections he had ever seen.

He looked from left to right. 'Where to start?' he thought.
