Doctor Who: Return to Earth
Chapter 2
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe Doctor's three companions stare with mouth agape at the beautiful planet before them. The lush green grass stretched out in countless miles all around them. It was noon, and the sun's rays made the already bright green grass even brighter. "That's... beautiful!" Twilight says, stumbling out of the TARDIS, still not used to her new legs.
"And this is only a small place on this humongous planet! Equestria is way more beautiful than this, but still... there's a lot of beauty on this world... Anyway! Names! I'll be Doctor John Smith. Derpy... How about Kate? I like Kate, what do you think?"
"Sure!"
"Okay, then! Twilight?"
"Um... Ashley?"
"Ha ha! That's a good name! Now, what name do you want, Spike?"
".... I don't know! How am I supposed to know what names they have here?!"
"Good point. I'll use the TARDIS's Translation Circuit to put some knowledge in your brains." The Doctor walks into the TARDIS and presses some buttons, and then the three Equestrians suddenly know everything that happened to the Earth in the last five centuries.
"There we go! Now, Spike, name?"
"... Brian."
"Hm... You don't really look like a Brian, but, whatever you want. Brian! Brian! B-B-B-B-B-Brian! Ha! That's a funny name!" The Doctor laughs, and goes back into the TARDIS. "So, where to? Oh! I know!" The Doctor pushes some buttons and pulls some levers, and the engines whir.

"Aha! There we go! 3:40 A.M. on Friday 31 August 1888 on a street called Buck's Row! And if I'm right... There should be an awesome party going on down the street! Let's go!" The Doctor says has he leads the now humanized ponies and dragon out of the TARDIS. "Come on, this way!"
The TARDIS crew turn a corner, and find a gruesome sight before them. A police investigation. The Doctor couldn't see what they were standing over, but he assumed it wasn't good. "Derpy, Twilight, Spike... Stay here, and do NOT. Move." The Doctor says, taking out his Physic Paper and walking up to the lead detective.
"Hello! I'm Doctor John Smith, I was sent by the local police of London to inspect the body and bring it in for an Autopsy. Who are you?"
The detective looks puzzled, and answers. "I'm Inspector Frederick Abberline, and who are you?"
"I told you. Doctor John Smith- Did- Did you just say Frederick Abberline?"
"Yes... Why?"
The Doctor's face goes pale as he realizes his mistake.
"DERPY!!!! TWILIGHT!!!! SPIKE!!!! GET TO THE TARDIS!!!!" The Doctor runs towards his friends and grabs them, and they rush towards the TARDIS. Once inside, the Doctor takes to the console and looks at the exact date. "Yeah... Looks like I've made a mistake. Look into the memories of the 1800's London..."
The three Equestrians tap into the historical records, and when they find what they wanted, they wish they hadn't. "Oh, my Goddess... Some sicko really did that?!" Twilight growls as the Doctor looms at the controls, wanting to flick a switch and send them back, but before he could...
"We've got to get that guy!" Spike says, prompting the Doctor to stop in his tracks.
"We can't Spike. The lives lost at the hand of the Ripper are fixed points in time. We can't stop him now. That was only one of five, spanning out across several months. We can't, or else Time will collapse, or the victims will end up dead, anyway. There's no point."
"I thought that's what you did! You help people!" Spike yells.
"Listen here, Spike. You do not tell me what to do. I have a lot of rules , and right now is not a good time to find out why I have so many...." The Doctor walks back to the controls, and then has an Idea. "But... If we travel to the point of the last murder... We could catch him AFTER the deed was done, but I don't know if Jack's identity never being revealed is a fixed point. I'll take the risk, but do NOT mess with ANYTHING historical!"
"Got it!" Spike says with a determined look on his face.
"Ugh... Well... Let's go get Jack the Ripper."
