The TARDIS was spinning out of control, causing the Doctor to fall, despite his grip on every rail he was close enough to grab. He looked at the monitor that was showing where the TARDIS was headed and the screen went black. Suddenly, the TARDIS shut down entirely. The Doctor could no longer see what was happening outside and he was scared for the first time in over three thousand years. He fell hard on his chest when he heard a loud crashing noise. His sonic screwdriver cut deep into his left heart, causing him to scream in agony. He pulled it out and tried to stand but remembered that his left heart sent blood to the left side of his body and he fell back down on his back. He had no choice but to regenerate. He began to do so and when he finished, he passed out from lack of energy. When he woke up, he noticed he was not wearing any clothes. He felt wrong but when he looked in the mirror he knew why. He had become a completely different species. He was obviously an equine of some sort. He was definitley not a normal horse or pony. He was four feet tall and had grown a dark brown mane and tail,both of which were spiky, and his clothes were all gone,replaced by a single white collar and a red bow-tie. His eyes were a brilliant baby blue and there was a tattoo on each of his flanks. He laughed at what the tattoo was of. On each of his flanks, he had a tattoo of an hourglass. He realized what had happened. The TARDIS had gone through a rift in space and travelled to another dimension. Since he had gone through a rift, he had regenerated as the dominant species of the first planet he had come to. He was surprised to learn he could speak. He told the TARDIS to take a trip to gather as much data on this universe as possible. A trip that, according to the TARDIS, would take two years. The Doctor sent it on its quest after leaving to investigate his surroundings. He walked on all fours as all equines do and he didn't walk long before he came to a town that had a sign saying "Welcome to Ponyville". He wondered how the creatures of this Earth-like planet wrote so well without fingers. He was suddenly surprised by a pink equine who literally bounced right up to him and began bouncing backwards while talking to him. "Hi! My names Pinkie Pie! What's your name? I know everypony in Ponyville but I don't know you which means you don't know anypony here which means you need friends which means you need me!" Pinkie began to bounce alongside him while asking him questions. "What's your name?" "Just call me the Doctor." "If your a doctor,then why is your cutie mark an hourglass?" "So that's what it's called! Odd name though, is that an odd name? I think it's an odd name. What is a cutie mark? What does the picture have to do with my profession?" "Boy,oh boy! You could give me a run for my bits in talking! Well if you really don't know what a cutie mark is then i guess i should take you to Twilight. She can tell you anything you wanna know!" "Very well then! Take me to see this 'Twilight'. I would love to see another intellectual." "Boy you sure do use big words! Twilight's gonna love you!" So Pinkie took the Doctor to a large tree with a door and windows in it. She knocked on the door and another equine opened the door. This one was calm and collected. She had a lavender colored body with a dark purple mane and tail,both of which had two different colored streaks in them. Her mane was mostly dark purple, but had a streak of hot pink and a streak of indigo in it. She had a horn poking out from behind her mane and her tail had the same two streaks. When the door opened, she had been a few feet away from it and there had been a faint purple-pink glow around the doorknob. Pinkie walked in and the Doctor followed. He saw rows upon rows and shelves upon shelves of books in the lower floor of the tree and even more going up a flight of stairs."Pinkie, I'm trying to reorganise the books,so try not to get in the way please." "Okey dokey lokey! I brought a friend to see you! He says he doesn't know what a cutie mark is, even though he has one!". "Wait....you don't know what a cutie mark is?" said Twilight as she looked at her own flank. The Doctor noticed her 'cutie mark' was a dark purple star with pinkish lines going outward from the center of the star, and darker purple lines even smaller than the pinkish ones going outward between the star and the pink lines. "What exactly are these things and what do they mean Miss Twilight?" "Oh, you can just call me Twilight. Well, where to begin? Okay! A cutie mark is a visual representation of what our special talent is and it just so happens that our cutie marks show up on our flanks." "Ah. I see. So what does Pinkies cuite mark represent?" "Oh, Pinkie is the best party pony in all of equestria! Nopony throws a better party than Pinkie!" "And your's?" "Well this is my cutie mark because my special talent is magic." "Magic! Ooh this world just gets better and better! I'm going to regret leaving in two years!" "Ummm, did I miss something?" said Twilight. "Oh no, but if you don't mind listening to an explanation, I would gladly fill you in on the details!" "Okay then...um... I never learned your name." The Doctor tried to think of a name but couldn't. "Just call me either Doctor or the Doctor." Twilight looked at him quizzically but just went over to a couch and sat down. It amazed the Doctor at how human they seemed. Even the way they sat on a couch was human. Pinkie left and the Doctor sat down next to Twilight. "All right. Fill me in on what I didn't understand." 'Very well. I was born on a planet called Gallifrey and when I got older, I built a device called a sonic screwdri-" "Wait a second. Did you say you were born on a planet called 'Gallifrey'?" "Yes." ''That would mean you are an alien!" 'Well yes. To you i am an alien, but to me you are the alien." "But how do you look so much like a normal earthpony?'' "Well, I was on my TARDIS,thats pretty much a time machine and a...well it stands for Time and Relative Dimension in Space. It can literally go anywhere." "Okay...but that doesn't answer my question." "Oh, right! Well, i was flying my TARDIS when i went through a rip in Space between your universe and mine. When the TARDIS crashed on this planet, I fell on my sonic screwdriver,which is a device that can do anything as long as I can think it, and it impaled one of my two hearts, causing instant death for the entire left half of my body. Well, since i couldn't even walk, i had no choice but to employ my power of regeneration to survive and when I regenerated, I guess I turned into the dominant species of this planet since it was closest to me,considering the fact that I was already on this planet." After he had finished his story, Twilight began to think. The Doctor could see the wheels spinning in her head as she thought about his story. "Well then, I guess I'm gonna have to teach you all about Ponyville and Equestria. I hope you like learning!"
The Doctor had now been in Ponyville for a month. Twilight had taught him how to talk and her friends had gathered to help him learn how to act. He was most like a combination of a yellow pony he liked named Fluttershy and a dependable sensible pony he had met named Applejack. He helped ponies when he got the chance and he was very kind and a little shy. He was walking through town to apply for a permanent job. He had gotten several temporary jobs in the last month, all involving time management. He had been a clockmaker, a watchmaker, and other time-related jobs. He was going to try to get a permanent job as a 'time turner' for the mayor. A time turner was the one who flipped the hourglasses at special events. Twilight had told him that ponies who worked for the mayor got paid a lot more than other ponies. Pinkie Pie had loved the fact that he was a time traveler and told them about the job. Since he could go back and forth through time, they had agreed he would take on the name of the job as his name for use in Ponyville instead of just using 'the Doctor'. So the Doctor was dead, replaced by Time Turner. He walked by a pony he remembered being called Carrot Top. "Hello. Lovely morning isn't it?" She looked at him in a scared way and mumbled under her breath and walked away. "Not very talkative eh?" Time Turner walked on, going to the Town Hall. He went inside and asked to see the mayor. "Go right in." said the mare at the desk. Time Turner went in and turned in his application. He had taken Applejacks advice and omitted the parts about being a time-travelling dimension-switching alien. His application was accepted and his first job would be in five days on the Summer Sun Celebration. He had learned all of the holidays the ponies celebrated, how to talk, and he had noticed that most things were just puns. He walked out of the mayors office confident that he would be good at this job. His sonic screwdriver had helped him with all his other jobs, but he wanted to do this one himself. Twilight's friend Rarity had been especially interested in his sonic screwdriver. He now held it in his hoof and pointed it at the door to Sugarcube Corner. He walked in and was greeted by Mr. Cake. "Hi there Doctor!Oops, I forgot you go by Time Turner now! I guess i'm gonna have to be reminded every day!" "Quite alright, my friends can call me Doctor, but in public they need to call me Time Turner." "Okey dokey!" Time Turner went up to the counter and heard a crash and a giggle from Pinkie Pie. "Howdy Doctor! Come in here a minute I wanna try something!" So the Doctor walked in the kitchen and was surprised when a blue cupcake was shoved in his mouth. He chewed it and swallowed. It was delicious! "Pinkie! you have outdone yourself this time! What did you put in this?" "Well...." Pinkie was known for breaking into song at odd times and the Doctor knew now was one of those times. "Just take a couple sticks of butter,add'em to the mix!Take a little something sweet,not sour,add some salt just a pinch! Add some 'this' and some of 'that' plus a bit of good vanilla! Add a little more and ya count to four and you'll never get your fill of cupcakes! So sweet and tasty cupcakes! Cupcakes cupcakes cupcakes!!!" The doctor bought two more blue cupcakes like the one she had given him and left. He munched on one while the other was in his saddlebag. He noticed Rainbow Dash, a cyan pegasus pony who loved speed and racing had been missing for a while. He figured she was just off on some weather expedition. He was glad to be here in Ponyville. He made his way to Sweet Apple Acres. He had promised Applejack he would watch Apple Bloom and her friends while Appleack was off to Appeloosa to take a batch of zapapples to her cousin Braeburn. Time Turner was lucky enough to have gotten a taste of the zapapple jam that Granny Smith made before they sold most of their zapapple jam to the richest pony in Ponyville. Time Turner thought the richest pony was Princess Celestia, but he learned quickly that she lived in Canterlot and that Ponyville was a seperate town entirely. The richest pony in Ponyville was Filthy Rich. He finally got to Sweet Apple Acres, but nopony was around. "Hello?Apple Bloom? Sweetie Bell? Scootaloo? It's the Doctor! Are you here?" The girls had walked in while he and Applejack had been talking and she had called him the Doctor and mentioned the TARDIS. Afterwards he had to explain all of it again to the three little fillies. Suddenly he heard flapping and looked around in the air and at the ceiling. He knew that Scootaloo was trying to fly or possibly succeeding at her task."Scootaloo?Are you flying?I would love to see you try successfully!Where are you?" He heard a scream and ran towards it as fast as he could. When he got to the source of the scream, he stood in awe. Scootaloo was flying at least 12 feet in the air and was holding up Sweetie Bell."Hey Doc.Sorry about the scream. I accidentally dropped Apple Bloom." "Well be a bit more careful next time okay?" "Okay." Time Turner was telling them stories about the Daleks when Applejack got back the next day. She didn't like him telling them about robots controlled by things inside them with 6 arms and beaks,but he had already started and he had proof that they were real (he used the sonic screwdriver to show them) and he had just finished telling them when she got back.She heard him finish his story then she grabbed him by the tail and pulled him into the barn and made sure the girls didn't follow. She didn't want them to hear this. "Doctor, I got some mighty bad news fer ya. I just saw yer TARDIS flyin' round and I noticed it was working funny. You said it was only s'posed to appear in a place on the ground right?" "That would be correct.Why? How was it acting funny? It would have to fly to get around the universe and gather data at the same time." "Well, the door was open and there was some kinda greyish thing with wings looking out.".The Doctor knew what it was and he passed out in fear.All he could think was How could they have followed me here? Of all places? When he woke up he was in Twilight's tree being watched by Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Spike (Twilights assistant/pet dragon for those that don't know). "Well dear, you have been out for quite some time! I was beginning to think that you were never going to wake up." said Rarity. "Oh....how long was I out?Wa-was th-th-there t-t-t-time to p-pre-prepare f-for th-the-them?" "Rest up pal, you were out for about three days and you're apperently terrified of whoever we're supposed to be prepared for cuz you're stuttering." "Excuse me Doctor," said Twilight, "but who found you?" The Doctor took a long look at her with fear in his eyes and said "The Weeping Angels.''.
