Doctor Whooves Part 1: The Oncoming Storm
Diamond and Silver

Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara stood at the edge of the Evertree Forest. A few other schoolchildren were nearby, watching expectantly.
"Ugh," Silver Spoon groaned. "Why did we get into this again?"
"Because," Diamond Tiara said, dragging out the last syllable. "We're going to control more of the schoolyard! My chart says that we would get more ponies to do or homework or do things for us. It all works out! Then we just need to find something that will make those stupid blank flanks give up their area."
"Are you totally sure it's worth going in here for, though?" Silver Spoon asked.
"Of course!" Diamond Tiara said, shocked.
"Alright, then," Silver Spoon said. "Let's get this over with."
They walked into the forest. All the schoolchildren watched as they went in, and everything went wrong. A light flickered on, and a metallic sound ripped through the silence. They heard Silver Spoon scream. They watched as Silver Spoon ran out. She was coming close to the group of schoolkids when a shadow appeared in the forest and the same sound came as before, but this time accompanied by a beam of light. Silver Spoon fell down, dead. The schoolkids ran, screaming, as the light from the forest faded. A voice echoed as the light faded, a metallic voice, monotone, no emotion behind it's noise. "Exterminate!" it yelled loudly.
A Day Later...
The attack in the Evertree Forest was the talk of Ponyville. The schoolchildren talked about what they saw there, but no one could imagine what creature did this. The parents of Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara were crying in their homes, and the most talented unicorns in Equestria suited up. It was time for a magical autopsy.
Twilight sat in the room with 3 other unicorns, uncertain of what had happened, and concerned because murder was far and between in Equestria. The room that they stood in was in a sealed off area of the hospital. She looked over at one of the unicorns in the room. 'Ugh,' she thought. 'Why does Trixie have to be part of this?' Trixie stood on the other side of the room, looking smug and arrogant. 'That unicorn needs a hoof to the face,' she thought. 'I may have taken her down last time, but there's no way she's any different.'
The body of Silver Spoon layed on the table. Diamond Tiara's body could not be recovered because of the thing in the forest. The unicorns spent many hours poking, prodding, and levitating the body, along with Trixie's constant annoying comments blurting through. After hours of this, a single guess on what killed the two fillies was non-existent. A curse came from one of the unicorns.
They all began to leave when a clanging signaled the arrival of somepony. They all looked to the entrance of the room. The Doctor walked in, puting away his Sonic Screwdriver in a pocket in a vest he had acquired earlier.
"What the..." Twilight said. "What are you doing here? This is for us only!"
"Well," The Doctor said. "I love locked doors, never could avoid them too well. And besides, if the thing you're looking for shoots light that kills you, I can probably help."
"How?" Twilight asked.
"Well, watch me figure out what killed them," The Doctor said with incredible certainty. He walked over to the body. He examined the charred fur and mane for a bit, then spoke his deduction.
"These are laser burns," he said. "No way it could be anything in your world, unless you've got laser shooting shadow creatures. This is definitely something from my world."
"You're world?" Trixie said with an arrogance she hadn't spoke with in months.
"Oh, I can already tell I'm going to dislike you," The Doctor said.
The Doctor looked at the body again, this time doing a more thourough search this time. He gasped.
"It can't be," he said.
"Can't be what?" Trixie said, with the same arrogance as before. "As I recall, you said it was from your world, so what can't it be? It has to be something."
"Dalek," The Doctor said, beginning to panic. He was trapped in this world, and there was a Dalek with him.
"A what?" Trixie said with an airy breath along with the last word.
"A Dalek," he said. "A killing machine. It has no emotions. It will kill anything that isn't a Dalek, not because it was told to, but because it needs to. If it gets out of the Evertree Forest, then everypony in Equestria will die. I need to stop it."
"Oh, please," Trixie said. "The Great-and-Powerful Trixie shall take care of it!"
"Dear heavens," The Doctor said. "You cannot stop that Dalek. It is from my world, and they're my mortal enemies, so, if they are going to get stopped, it will be by my hand, sorry, hoof."
Trixie groaned. "What a failure you are, my good loser," Trixie said.
"Twilight," The Doctor said. "Let's leave before I really give her something to talk about."
They left and went back to the library. They went in and went into the kitchen. The Doctor sat down in a chair and sighed. He was in for one heck of a problem.
"Twilight," he said. "Will you help me come take out this Dalek? Maybe your magic can penetrate the Dalek's shields."
"Sure," Twilight said.
"Really?!" The Doctor said, exuberant. "I only asked you because I didn't want that unicorn, Trix-, um..., you know, whats-her-name, to get all smug that she was there to help me beat it. You look more the modest type than her. So, time to get stopping!"
They left to go to the Evertree Forest. They arrived on the edge of it. The light that was there when the schoolchildren had been there was gone, and the only noise was the sound of The Doctor and Twilight breathing.
"Well," The Doctor said. "Allonsy!"
