(To be rewritten) Ep 1: Tick Tock (Pilot Episode)

Derpy Hooves yawned as orange light glistened off her coat. A smile grew apon her face, as her wing stretched and her hooves touched the floor. She gave a quick yawn before walking to her closet. Pleasantly, she dawned her uniform and chuckled to herself. She felt like today was going to be a good day.

After brushing her teeth and eating a hearty breakfast of blueberry muffins, the pegasus mare walked out of her one-bedroom home to greet the dawn with a hop to her step. As she walked to work, she couldn't help but greet everypony that passed by her way. Even a strange brown Earth pony who looked as if he would burst to tears at any second, but he walked away.

Ah well, it didn't matter to her anyway. In just one more day, she would get to experience the Summer Sun Celebration! She's also heard rumors about a new pony moving in on that day and can't wait to meet them.

INTRO

Today had been more nightmarish then Derpy thought it would be, causing her to walk with her head hung low. First, the Postal office was name packed then anticipated, and despite her 'problems', she was forced into Mail Processing. Her new Boss was very enraged when he saw just how little work was done by Derpy and refused to listen to reason, purposely ignoring it almost. She could have sworn he wore a smirk when she wasn't looking.

It didn't get better after that. Soon, he decided to book her for a delivery on Sunday at the edge of town; The same date and time as the Summer Sun Celebration. He felt awful. Mr. Shujin was cruel for no other reason than his own amusement. Either way, he was hoove picked by her old boss and there was nothing she could do about it.

She couldn't quite, it took her months just to get the one job and now some jerk was gonna take it away? Hah, she could almost laugh if it didn't hurt too. Nobody else would hire her due to her... problems, so she just had to wait him out.

She looked up at the clock tower as it ticked away at the time. There where eight ticks to represent the sixteen hours in an equestrian day on its face and the big arrow pointed close to the seven. Almost Midnight.

Derpy looked up to the stars and the moon pitifully and thought for a moment. Under her breath, she suddenly spoke.

"Hope something better comes along..." Then she chuckled and walked home.

"Hello, anypony order a pizza?" Screeched a young mare as she opened the doors to the old Clock Shop. Webs lined the walls as broken clocks had their pieces scattered around the floor. The stairs going down were exposed, so she walked them deeper into the shop.

"Hello?" She screamed again, reaching the darkened bottom. "Could I be at the wrong spot?" She asked herself. That's when the sounds started; Ticking. Something down there was ticking an unnerving tick that echoed as if in a damp cave. Behind that ticking was the pitter-patter of hooves against the wooden floor. Letting out an audible gulp, the mare walked deeper into the room and came face to face with two doors. She tried to open the one to the right door but found it locked. Shrugging it off, she shakily opened the left one and stepped inside.

Bolting out of the room with a deftly yell, she made her way up the stairs. Turning back, a shadowed creature in the form of a pony struggled to catch up. Heading towards the exit, the mare let out a chuckle, unaware of the loose round clock pice in her path. Flailing to the ground, she turned onto her back and destroyed her through with a blood-curdling screech.

Blood stained the empty Clock Shop, as the ticking sound made its way downstairs. Accompanying was the sound of a loud and meaty bump at each step.

Derpy decided to take a detour and visit the new pony in town since she had some time and Pinkie Pie would be throwing the new girl a welcome party. Twilight Sparkle sounded nice, though she didn't look happy. She especially seemed unhappy after accidentally drinking the hot sauce and running to her room. She would have stayed longer, but Derpy knew better than to be late on a package.

As she walked, she forced a quivering smile and tried to act happy. twenty minutes until the celebration and she was going to miss it. This would be the second year she wouldn't attend. The first being back when she was a filly... She spent that whole day there her mother after-

"Ah Ditzy glad you decided to come back, did you bring the package?" jumped out a male voice, causing Derpy to snap back to reality. Standing in front of the old Clock Shop was a brown stallion with spiked dark brown hair, a green tie, and an hourglass cutie mark that looked as if the sand was actually falling. He was consecrated on pointing his wired sound stick around and didn't look at her fully.

"I'm... Sorry?" Derpy replied with a tilt of her head.

"You know what I mean Ditzy! You joked about going to the Summer Sun Celebration to watch Nightmare Moon returned after I asked you to bring me the package yesterday! You're dedicated, I'll give you that. Haven't seen you... all... day..." Having said his lines, the stallion turned his head to look at a confused Derpy holding a cardboard box the size of her head. "Celestia Dam it Ditzy you didn't!" He yelled walking up to Derpy, causing her to flinch. "I can't believe you! You tell me about this great big mystery, lead me to this store, and even convince me not to look for you, and you can't even lie about what you're doing-Er, Going to do?! Shame..." He grabbed the box and walked back to his spot.

"... What..." Was Derpy's only response.

"What is right Ditzy! What, as in what were you and or going to be THINKING?!" He escalated. "You're lucky this is a real threat or I would just left you here! Feel lucky that I'll go pick you up after Luna runs off in about... give or take ten minutes!"

"What." Was Depry's only response. It took the station a few seconds of continuation before slapping his face with his hooves.

"Stupid Doctor, she won't meet you for another week! She has no idea who you are!" He exclaimed. After straightening his tie and giving off a little cough, he put on a little smirk and spoke. "Ello, I'm The Doctor and it's a pleasure to re-meat you, Ms. Derpy. Now, I'll explain it all when we are supposed to meet but for now- Er, Where are you going?"

Derpy had turned around and briskly tried to walk away. She paused however as The Doctor asked his question and turned to face him. "Why do you want to know?" She asked.

"Because you're walking away from me whilst I'm talking."

"... I'm not going anywhere."

"Is it opposite day? If not, why are you lying to me?"

"... What's opposite day?"

The Doctor slapped his face again. Before the conversation could continue, a crash rang from the store, starting both ponies. Quickly, The Doctor opened the box, pulled out a strange-looking watch, and turned to Derpy.

"Look, I'm sorry for stopping you. My intent was just to explain what was happening then send you off, but now I'm just going to skip to the part where I tell you to go. So go." He said sternly. Running into the building, Derpy had the right idea to listen to him. But as she turned to leave, a loud bang could be heard followed by a surprised shriek. Derpy turned back to the building with a horrid feeling and, after some hesitation, ran inside.

She stood still has her eyes met the two sets of blood; One dry and one fresh. Both, however, had small droplets that lead down a set of stairs.

Nine Minutes.

Down the stairs, two doors stood. Derpy tried the right door but found it locked. Trying the left resulted in the opposite, and she quietly pushed it open. As she looked inside, she had to bite down on her hoof as her eyes dilated and her through tightened.

Skin. The room was filled with skin strawn around the walls. Organs lined shelves in jars and blood was scattered around the floor. However, in the back entrance of the room stood a scene straight from a horror novel; A chair blood-soaked chair held the stallion by tieing around his hooves. His head was bleeding, yet he held a wide grin.

What was strange was the pony holding him hostage. They were a purple stallion with no cutie mark, no tail, and an orb for a head. Admitting from said orb was an odd ticking sound.

"Doctor..." He spoke softly, "Give me the code for the Vortex Manipulator and I will not experiment on you as I have done with the rest."

"I will, if you can answer my three riddles-" The Doctor was promb=ptly marked. "Owch, I'm serious!"

"No... You are not..." It spoke, the ticking getting louder.

"Come on Yags, have I lied before- Don't answer that." The ticking grew louder.

Five minutes.

As 'Yags' turned to grab something revealing the front of his face to be a that of a clock, The Doctor glanced over to Derpy and winked. He then spat a fumbled piece of paper in her direction just in time for Yags to turn back to him with a surgical knife.

On the paper was a long string of text and letter marked 'Code'; "BSreTe9ee5TyrpcDndaolh6TI7t8l0emXitoHe7OCg".

Two Minutes.

The Doctor laughed in Yags face.

"Do not laugh, you and all of time will soon die!"

"Yah well, I would have to disagree. Hay just a quick question, what's in the door to the right?" At this, the ticking grew more mellow.

"Door? To the right?"

"Yes, the door to the right. The second door."

"Second door? There is only one door." This caused The Doctor to tilt his head. He would have pressed on but...

One minute thirty seconds.

Suddenly, The Doctor's eyes began to dilate as his mouth frowned a small frown. "For the love of Celestia, I just realized I'm going to die! Please, don't kill me!" To this, Yags began to tick louder.

"Yes, you will die! Perhaps I'll spare you if you give me the code."

The code. Derpy held the code. She felt like running away with it, but then she remembered the wink. He wanted her to have it, yet he isn't telling Yags about her holding the moist code. Then he winked again with a flash of a grin in her direction. Derpy's eyes lite up.

One minute.

"I have the code!" Derpy yelled. As Yags turned to face her, The Doctor smiled wide.

"No!" He screamed. "Don't give it to him! I was stalling him!"

Yags ticked even louder as he ran over to Derpy. He pushed her down and grabbed the code.

"Yes... Now all shall die! Listen, Doctor, as I type this code in letter by letter..."

Thirty seconds.

" BSreTe9..."

Twenty seconds.

"ee5TyrpcDndaolh..."

Ten

"6TI7"

"Please stop think about this!" The Doctor yelled

Five

Yags laughed "I already have... t8l0emXito"

one

"He7OCg!" Suddenly, Yags flashed out of existence with a loud zap. The Doctor laughed himself silly.

"My god I can't believe it worked! The plan was meant to be done with my Ditzy, but you did great!"

"What... Where did he go?" Derpy asked confused.

"Easy; You see, Nightmare Moon returns today by using the Stars as her exit. By using a hacked Vortex Manipulator, I was able to give old Azathoth a one way trip to the moon!"

Derpy stared in shock. "Did... Did you say, Nightmare Moon?"

"Hm? Oh yes, Lunas back. Now you see I kept time by looking at his head. You see, he's an enemy from your- well our future- or well my past- Er, Look we fight him and you trap him in a clock! Now I know why you chose a clock and it is brilliant! And-" The Doctor Stoped talking once he noticed Derpy had passed out from shock. "Great Wrikering STallions, you can't be serious... Ugh." The Doctor easily broke free from his restraints and placed Derpy on his back. As he walked out of the room, he couldn't help but notice the lack of a right door. Just as Yogs said, there was only one door.

The Doctor shrugged and walked away.

Alone, Yogs swore to the planet below him. The Vortex Manipulator was nothing more than dust on his hooves. This was his second and last defeat at the hooves of that mad pony! Even if he swore revenge, he would never get... Down bellow, Derpy was tucked into her bed, Ditzy was laughing, The Doctor was trying to scold her, and Yogs was nothing more than a bad dream.

Ep 2: The sword of Tsik (Si-i-Ki)

One week. It had been that long since Derpy had that surreal dream. It also matched the timeframe that she's been working herself to the bone as her new boss demands. Mr. Shujin would always give an uncanny smile whenever she entered the mailroom, and Derpy would always tilt her head down when he did so. Derpy had tried looking for new jobs, but nobody would fire her due to all the hassle that she brought along.

Today, however, was different. Today was her day off, and nothing was going to ruin it. Derpy packed a basket with food and a checkered blanket before prancing out of her home with pride. Her plane was to spend this monthly event with a nice picnic in the Ponyvill park... At least that was the plan.

Derpy froze in her place. running in front of her, a brown stallion was running around in a panic, something long and wrapped in velvet cloth in his maw. It was him. The awful stallion from her dream. He turned a corner and vanished just as fast as he appeared. Derpy blinked her eyes at lightning speed to check if she was sleeping.

Derpy dropped her basket and ran towards where he vanished, following the prints left in the ground from where he ran. At their end stood one building iconic to Derpy; Sugarcube Corner. Behind Derpy, as she walked inside, the shadow of a pony followed a fair distance behind her. Ever slowly getting closer.

INTRO

The smell of pastries was complimented by the chitter-chatter of customers inside Shurgarcube Corner. Its sweet walls lined with inviting colors. It was wonderful! Over the counter, Pinkie was taking orders very quickly, and not Pinkies usual quick. She was grabbing the orders while the pony would be describing it, creating a satisfying sense of confusion to run across their faces. Derpy began to look around for where he might be before walking upstairs. Pinkie watched her go up before turning towards the door.

Into the bakery, a royal guardsman walked... but something wasn't quite right with them. Yes, they looked fairly normal with their white coat and blond hair, but that wasn't the problem. Heck, even their cutie mark depicting a clock with an infinity symbol on it wasn't what was wrong with them. Nopony could place their hooves on it as they slowly and silently walked over to Pinkie Pie, angering the ponies they cut in front of.

"May I help you?" Pinkie asked. The Guard stared at Pinkie before mouthing something. "Um... could you repeat that?" They once again No. The pony they were looking for was not in this room, but they were close. The guard could sense it.

As Derpy looked around upstairs, she finally found some sort of possible clue. It wasn't much, but the black liquid drops leading into the Guest Bedroom was good enough for Derpy to investigate. She didn't really think it was the pony from her dreams, but something inside of her just wanted to... check...

As she peeked into the guest room her heart skipped a beat. There was some strange looking... thing sitting on the bad. It was an odd-looking machine that was clearly thrown together ina hurry yet also planed? Derpy couldn't describe it well, but she could feel it. And working said machine was him. The Doctor. He was hooking up that clothed item from before and desperately looking for results. Derpy took a look around before entering the creek door. As she did so, the guard silently began his ascent towards the top step.

"Yes, everything is working as per usual, but that's not good!" The Doctor said, a visible scowl on his forehead. "I've tried this over three thousand two hundred and sixty-three times now and yet nothing changes! I've tried stealing the sword earlier later and even ignoring it entirely yet nothing changes... Today I even tried taking a short cut yet the loop remains the same..." Yep, it was him.

Derpy instantly realized how bad an idea this was and turned towards the door... then she bumped into a flower vase, loudly shattering it on the ground. The Doctor turned his ears and looked behind him, shocked to see her.

"What?!" he said sharply. Taking a step back. Derpy didn't know what to say as a thousand thoughts lead to a thousand questions in her head. All that came out was slight mumbling.

"Who the dickens are you?! You're not supposed to be here!!" This lack of recognition in his voice was enough to snap Derpy out of her trance.

"What do you mean 'who the dickens are you', it's me! Derpy?! You called me Ditzy?" The Doctor just stared.

"What?"

"You were in my dream? You said your name was 'Doctor', but you never told me your last name. Remember?"

"WHAT?! How do you know my name?! You shouldn't be here-" His face lite up. "You're new... YOU ARE NEW!" He rushed over and squeezed the life out of Derpy with a big toothy grin. "I don't know what caused you but thank - He's here."

Suddenly, a cold feeling washed over Derpy as The Doctor backed off her. Turning around, she noticed the Guard standing in the open doorway.

"Gah! Dear Celestia, I'm sorry, I didn't hear you come in... or open the door..." Derpy said. He began to walk in without a sound. "Wow, you're... the quiet type huh?"

"It's not a pony." The Doctor said blankly as he backed towards the window, the clothed object from earlier resting on his back.

"What? What do you mean?" Derpy asked, watching the Guard walk towards The Doctor.

"Do two things for me; Take a good listen to this room and think of what sounds you hear, then tell me, is it a mare or a stallion?" The Doctor began to use one of his hind hooves to open the window behind him.

"What? What does that-" That's when it clicked. They walked over the glass that shattered near the door, yet there was no sound. They opened the door, yet there was no creek. They were right behind them yet they made no breathing sounds. Then, as Derpy focused on its face, she began to notice just how vaguely it only looked pony like in enough arias to not stand out in any way, yet if you looked just right there were no true discernable features.

"WHAT THE-" Derpy yelled as The Doctor jumped out the window. The guard stood still for a second before following out the same way only quieter. Derpy looked over at the abandoned machine before walking out of the room... Only to run back in and fly out the window.

Checking upstairs, Pinkie looked around for where everypony went. She checked the Cakes room, Baby's room, and the guest room. She started at the machine for a minute before closing the door. She even tried the weird-looking door that appeared at the end of the hall where the window used to be but found it locked. She shrugged and walked off, deciding everything must have been fine.

Derpy flew over The Doctor and the Guard at a safe distance. She just wanted to watch and had to hold back in helping him, as she didn't feel safe. Yet, as the guard crept up to The Doctor, her fear slowly turned to a need to intervene. Even so, she was able to hold onto that need, until The Doctor was tackled.

"No, Not again!" The Guard whispered something in his ear, and The Doctor went still. It grabbed the clothed object to reveal it as a sword. As it swung down, Derpy lost control and flew in his direction and in front of The Brown Pony.

Derpy awoke in a cold sweat from the strange nightmare and hyperventilated.

One week. It had been that long since Derpy had that surreal dream. It also matched the timeframe that she's been working herself to the bone as her new boss demands. Mr. Shujin would always give an uncanny smile whenever she entered the mailroom, and Derpy would always tilt her head down when he did so. Derpy had tried looking for new jobs, but nobody would fire her due to all the hassle that she brought along.

Today, however, was different. Today was her day off, and nothing was going to ruin it. Derpy packed a basket with food and a checkered blanket before prancing out of her home with pride. Her plane was to spend this monthly event with a nice picnic in the Ponyvill park... At least that was the plan.

Derpy froze in her place. running in front of her, a brown stallion was running around in a panic, something long and wrapped in velvet cloth in his maw. It was him. The awful stallion from her dream. He turned a corner and vanished just as fast as he appeared. Derpy blinked her eyes at lightning speed to check if she was sleeping. This... happened already, didn't it? She cautiously walked to Shugarcube Corner and went inside. Turning around, she noticed the Guard and went cold.

"Somethings... Different..." The Doctor said, starting at his readings. "It says here the loop has been... looped! That means my loop curse has been passed on... but to who..?"

"DOCTOR! HE'S HERE!" Derpy said as she burst into the room.

"What?!" He said.

"I'll make this quick; My name's Derpy, I've been looping for three weeks now, and I need your help!" She said, barracking the door. She could hear it. The Guard was still quiet, yet she could comprehend it sounds now. It was coming. "please, you have to help me! What can I do?!" The Doctor stared for a second before giving his response.

"What?!"

Derpy began to cry. She didn't have the will to go on. She had heard The Doctor tell her how long he was in his loop, yet now she would be traped in her own. He never helped before, so what would change now-

"Stop crying and get behind me." The Doctor said coldly. Derpy shot her head up soaked in tears and stared. "DOn't make me repeat myself. Stand behind me and hold this." He handed her an odd-looking key. Derpy obeyed and walked behind him.

The Guard entered the room with a creek only Derpy could hear.

"Hello, me again. I see the targets switched off to sompony else." The Guard walked towards Derpy without a word. "So, I'm guessing you won't bother with me right? You'll whisper in her ear, she'll go into shock from hearing the spell, yet she'll be unable to say a thing..." It still walks towards Derpy but kept its ears towards The Doctor. "You mad here cry, and I don't like seeing grown adults cry so I'll ask you once; Please give up, as now that I'm not in your loop Tsik, I can kill you." It chuckled, but only Derpy could hear it. However, The Doctor did not require sound to understand the meaning of its expression and movements. "Okay then... you can have your sword back, but it may take a minute." Before anything could happen, The Doctor picked up the clothed sword and threw it out the window. It screeched but only Derpy covered her ears before it jumped out the window. As it did so, The Doctor grabbed Derpy and gave her one word of advice; "Run."

Derpy flew above The Doctor as they ran from Shurgarcube Corner. It didn't take long for Tsik to catch up, but The Doctor kept a confident and focused look on his face. Derpy, however, began to lose her confidence the longer they ran.

"There, go there!" The Doctor yelled.

"What?! Where are we going?!" Derpy screamed.

"I'm going in that Blue Box over there, you're waiting outside!"

"Why?!"

"You can't go in with me right now!"

The Doctor ran inside the blue box and Derpy tried to follow behind, but a sudden surge of energy slammed her to the ground.

"See! The TARDIS won't let you in due to the time loop! Give me a second, I need you to distract it before I can do anything!"

"WHAT IN TARDERUS IS A TARDIS?!" Derpy yelled.

"Trust me; just keep him in one spot for a second!" And with that, he slammed his doors shut.

The Guard was walking now but at a brisk enough pass as to keep himself from being in one spot for too long. Derpy looked at him, trying to think of her next move. She wanted to run away, she wanted to give up, but she knew it didn't matter. If they caught her, everything would just loop again, it was nothing more then a sick game. She had to do something, and there was no true risk of trusting The Doctor besides the pain of being sliced in half. She just needed to keep him still for a second. Without much thought, Depry attempted to tackle the Guard. In retaliation, the Guard turned the tables and tackled her. He took a second to scuffed at the foolish attempt at hurting him and leaned down into her ears. Derpy shut her eyes tight.

"By the god of chaos, I tell you a cursed truth, so that you shall lose all ability to move; The Doctor took my sword because of- AGAHAAAAFGGHAAAAHA"

Derpy opened one eye and screamed; The Guard was dissolving to dust. Derpy backed up whilst on he back and watched it die, layer by layer. After a moment, she heard The Doctor speak.

"Now then, didn't expect full-on death when transporting the TARDIS atop of you two but ya get what ya get ey?" Looking behind her, The Doctor had a smug look on his face as he leaned over what looked like... a series of buttons on a hexagon-shaped table with a giant glass tube in the middle. She didn't know how it happened, but she was in some sort of dome-shaped orange-tinted room.

In the end, The Doctor, Derpy, and an ever silent pile of dust where all that remains.

"Thank you! I could never get into the TARDIS to land it on them due to the time loop locking me out as it locked you out, but thanks you passing on the loop to yourself, it was a pinch! Sorry for however long you said it took me to do this, but in all fairness, you most likely popped out of nowhere and made me too confused to work so it's not REALY my fault... I think... I'll have to look into that. You can leave now by the way just take the white doors." The Doctor pointed a hoof towards the TARDIS doors. Derpy quietly walked over to them, still in shock, and stared. As she opened them, she noticed the outside was... it was almost exactly where she was moments ago. Turning around, her eyes widened at the blue box with its doors still open. She rushed around it to check its size before running back inside.

"What... What magic is that?!" Derpy yelled as the doors shut themselves. The Doctor looked up in shock at her presents.

"Wait, why did you walk back in?!" The Doctor yelled as everything began to shake. The TARDIS was on the move

(To be rewritten). Ep 3: Writers Block

Out the window of the tower, she looked word the void white of the sky and gave a sigh. In front of her, an almost empty book stood with only three words.

"The Rain was-" and nothing more. All she had so far was a tower yet she had no world for it to inhabit. Did she leave Equestria for this? She wondered how Luna and Celestia were doing, she wondered how much they have grown. She even wondered if she should have gone back?

She looked out the window, stretched her wings, then used her horn to close the book. She thought of asking Bonnie to check-in things around Equestria when she heard the sound. Her ears perked up and Lauren sled over to the window. It was him. The Doctor was landing and if it was anything like the last time he had seen her something's going to go very wrong.

As she walked down the tower, the book reopened due to another more shadowy hoof. It picked up a quill and began to write.

INTRO

Derpy had left the TARDIS moments ago and staired into the white void. The Doctor on the other hoof was quite visibly stressed at her presence atop this floating island.

"W-where are we?" Derpy asked. The Doctor wanted to scold her but his own desire to explain and help others learn took him over instead.

"We're at the far corner of this universe. And when I say 'far corner' I mean far. We are utterly at the boundaries of this reality and the next. And it's also home to- Dough, why am I explaining this to you?! You aren't apposed to be here!"

"But Doctor, I didn't mean to come with you, I just wanted to double-check if it really was bigger..."

"Listen... what's your name again?"

"Derpy."

"Listen Ditzy, I want you to step back inside the TARDIS so I can drop you off back at Equestria before the coo-coo owner of this land-"

"Does what?" Spoke a sudden booming voice. The Doctor scrunched up as Derpy's eyes dilated. As if out of thin air, they both noticed the cobblestone house with its gigantic tower. Standing at its doorway, a white Alicorn with Carmine red hair and an inkwell cutie mark. Her majestic stance disobeying the cold tone of her home.

"Mr. Doctor... is- is that an Alicorn?"

"Yes. It is."

"I have a name Doctor." The Alicorn called. She looked over to Derpy and stared at her for a second. "My name is Lauren, but you can call me Mrs. Faust." Derpy squinted her eyes.

"Lauren Faust... where have I heard that name before...?"

"Does it matter?" Lauren spoke with power in her voice. "Why do you come here, Doctor? Has something happened to my girls?"

"No, Celestia and Luna are relatively fine at this point in time." The Doctor replied giving Derpy a shock. Lauren was bout to say something else when realization hit her face.

"...I see you've changed your face again but... Where's that friend of yours? Cream Heart was it?" Lauren asked. The Doctor stared at her silently as Derpy tilted her head. She knew that name.

Derpy looked over to the tall alicorn and spoke."Cream Heart? I think I delivered mail to her a couple of times... Her and her kids live alone. Um, how do you know them-"

"Wait what!? So here and Lucky finally tied the knot!?" Her face looked shocked, yet relieved.

The Doctor groaned. "Yes, they did kinda- Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'm going to leave now. I have to put... this back." He points a hoove towards Derpy, causing her brow to scowl. "In case I didn't apologize earlier, I'm sorry for barging in on you. Have a great day." Lauren sighed. She could tell The Doctor was rushing things along to help himself leave faster. As she went back inside, The Doctor walked back to his TARDIS.

"You're kinda rude. I hope you know that." Derpy said following him reluctantly.

"It helps." The Doctor replied.

As he touched the TARDIS doors, the sound of glass shattering above him made him freeze. Him and Derpy looked up to the white void sky and saw a horrific sight; Lauren was falling and something was holding her wings down. She was falling around 529 miles per hour, she was still relatively high up... 15 seconds. The Doctor had 15 seconds to react.

15, 14, 13,

"Ditzy, Quickly fly up and pull that thing off Lauren!" Derpy just stood blankly for one second, 12, 11, before registering the command and, without hesitation, shook her head awake and flew towards the falling alicorn.

10, 9,

The Doctor rushed back inside his TARDIS and began pulling a few leavers. As he did so, the TARDIS began to dematerialize...

7,6,5,

Derpy flew as fast as she could towards the falling duo. She couldn't make out the figure holding Lauren due to it wearing a cloak, but she could make out its head. She quickly turned around and used her hind legs to kick it in the chin, causing it to instantly let go. However, Lauren still did not fly; She was out cold. Derpy grabbed her and began to flap her own wings, but it was son use.

4,3,2,1- *SPLASH*

A pool, she and Lauren fell into a pool... and The Doctor was sitting by the pool's edge with a first aid kit.

"Sorry," He said "didn't want to let the thing in here when I caught her so I didn't have time to explain. I'm impressed though by your qu-"

"Doctor, She's out cold!" This shut The Doctor up quickly, putting him immediately into healing mode.

In the TARDIS, Deroy waited outside Laurens's medical room. She began to worry they were too late, and it was pointless to delay the inevitable. What if Lauren's dead? What if the impact from the pool or something the hooded figure did kill her. Those thoughts at Derpy's conscience like a starved spider eating a fly. As The Doctor exited the room, Derpy needed to know if Lauren was okay. Luckily, he initiated the answer before she even had the chance to ask the question.

"She's an alicorn and thusly immortal. We were only trying to save her horn as if she had fallen it would have broken off and been irreplaceable. No, we shouldn't worry about her... we should worry about the other one."

Derpy looked confused before the realization came.

"The cloaked figure?"

"Yes, he stole something from Lauren. A book."

"A... book? Why?"

"You see how this world's just a void? Well, that book is enchanted. Whatever words are written in it will become a true history for a world you created." He noticed Derpy tilting her head and sighed. "Imagin, you had a blank piece of paper. Now, let's say whatever you drew on said paper would be given life. However, you can only draw on your paper... but you can use anyponies pencil.." Derpy was starting to get it, but The Doctor failed to notice. " The book is the pencil and the void is the paper. If you had the book, so long as you created a void in space that needs to be made by you, you can create the first one hundred years of a world. One page for one year."

"I... get it?" Derpy responded.

"Ugh, look, we need to find the hooded figure before they can escape. If they leave with that book, they could star a world of pure evil, and nopony could stop them! You've proven to be helpful so... would you like to help me find them?"

Derpy's eyes dilated at the thought. No, she did not want to help The Doctor she thought he was crazy... but she did want to be able to say she help an alicorn and stoped an evil villain, so those pros out wayed the cons.

"I-I would love to!" She said, with a scratch to her voice.

The clocked figure waited atop the tower, looking down through the broken window. On his left was a big book and to his right was an odd-looking door that seemed to go nowhere, as it was attache to nothing. A smile grew from his face as he noticed The Doctor and Derpy exiting the TARDIS.

"Ah, like a fly to honey. As they come closer, the spider shall prepare a web. However, as much as I hate to say this, the fly must escape... however, it would not leave without a reminder of where it lays on the food chain." He grabbed a pebble and threw it down. It booed Derpy on the head, causing The Doctor to look up. They both began to sprint inside. The figure laughed before reaching into a pocket and pulling out two things; Matches and a letter.

The Doctor and Derpy ran up the stairs to the top of the tower. Derpy was beginning to lose breath, but The Doctor had plenty to spare. At the top, he used his breath to call out fo the hooded figure, Only to find them standing right in front of the space where the window used to be, facing towards the ponies. It was just him. No book, no door, nothing.

"Ah, a delicious fly finds it's way here."

"What does that mean?" The Doctor asked. "You some kind of spider thing?"

"Close... very close but no cigar." He replied back. Derpy mad it up at this point, out of breath but still listening. "Doctor, it's so nice to see you again... How long has it been? Nine, three hundred years? Is this the right order? Yes, yes it is! Ditzy doesn't have that foolish pink bowtie yet, so it must be early days for both of you..."

"Early.... huh.... days?" Derpy asked, once again letting the wrong pronunciation of her name go to the side.

"What...?" The Doctor began, only to be interrupted.

"For me Doctor, I've just run into you about twenty minutes ago. You both chased me and my friends down and I escaped. I came here to get something and saw an... opportunity to say Hi." He began to back off towards the edge of the window.

"Who are you?" The Doctor asked.

"Ah, you, Ditzy, and that tall lady will figure it out; After all, you must look back for the answers." And with that, he jumped.

The Doctor and Derpy ran over to look for him, but he was gone. However, what remains was just as horrifying as a mutilated corpse. Fire. The bottom of the home was on fire and it was spreading up. The Doctor turned around to look back down the stairs and see how far the fire spread but paused. Written on the walls was one word;

'Parasites'

"Doctor, the fire, it's spreading up the stairs! Doctor?!" Derpy screamed as The Doctor went still. "Doctor snap out of it! I'm gonna grab you and fly out the window and into the... ship thing- whatever you called it,I'm gonna fly us inside okay?!" Still unresponsive and jaw now hanging, Depry took matters into her own hooves and quickly latched onto him and pushed him out the window.

She overestimated her ability to fly with another pony in hoof. They limited down, falling towards the ground. This was it. Soon, they would be nothing more then splats on the ground. As they fell, however, Depry felt... a spark. She felt alive. For the first time since she and her sister were children, Derpy Doo felt alive. That flame that was snuffed out back home had returned, and she had an odd sense of euphoria despite knowing she was about to - *SPLASH*

"GAH" Derpy went, gasping for air and holstering The Doctor above water the sudden splash snapping him out of his trance.

"What the dickens!"

"Huh, I still know how to pilot this thing." Came a familiar voice. Lauren, with a bandage around her head mind you, lied down next to the pool's outer rim. "Nice to see my little... well, are either of you ponies?"

"What kind of question is that? Yes we a-"

"Yes, Ditzy is a pony." The Doctor interrupted. Derpy looked confused but let it slide. After all, she was happy to be alive.

After apologizing to Lauren and explaining the book was most likely destroyed, she was dropped off at Canterlot Castle. As The Doctor and Derpy watched her hug Celestia and Luna as if her life depended on it, Derpy took a moment to think. That spark. She hasn't felt that spark of life in so long, and it only came out when she was doing something... dangerous with The Doctor. She took a breath, said that famous, 'I'll regret this later, line and turned towards her companion.

"Doctor?"

"Yes Ditzy?"

"Ugh, first off, my names Derpy."

"Yes, that's what I said."

"Wha... Look, I'm... I... Do you do things like this often?"

"Almost every day. Why? You want to come?"

Derpy's heart skipped a beat at the offer. "Well... yes. I would like to come with you..." She took another breath before continuing. "I want to know if there could be times that I could come with you without losing my job. I-"

"It's a time machine. Didn't I say that?"

"I- What?"

"Yeah, the TARDIS. Time And Relative Dimensions In Space. It travels in time and space. If your choice is to come with me... we could go anywhere and anywhen whilst never being late." The Doctor offered a hoof. "Would you like to leave now?"

Derpy still felt uneasy, but it was what she wanted right? She wanted this. Taking The Doctor's hoof, she simply smiled.

The fly believes itself to be safe, as it has dealt with many spiders in its life. However, it was unprepared for one thing; another fly, this one a cannibal. The fly had its share of friends, but they were no match for the cannibal. Such a shame too, since both flys knew who the other was, making one burst to tears and the other laughter. Soon, the cannibal would drain the fly, with the help of one thing: Pest control.
