//-------------------------------------------------------// Doctor Whooves & Scootaloo -by Pencil Neck- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Shooting Star //-------------------------------------------------------// Shooting Star It was 7:24pm in Ponyville. Ponyville was suffering a massive heat wave, and lucky for the town, the Pegasus Weather Team (PWT) forgot to make it rain yesterday. Ponyville will be scheduled to rain tomorrow in 7th of July. Along Trot Street, three young fillies were making their way back home. One was a Unicorn, the second was a Earth pony, and lastly the third was a Pegasus. They seem bruised and sad as they walked near SugarCube Corner. "Well that sucked!" Exclaimed Scootaloo. "I guess Parkour isn't our talent." Said Sweetie Belle. "Don't worry gals I'm sure will get our Cutie Marks at somethin'!" Said Applebloom. The sun was setting, everypony was heading home. The Cutie Mark Crusaders realize the sunset. "Oh, I better go. Rarity will kill me if I come home late, again." Said Sweetie Belle. "Me too, Applejack wood' get worried if ah came home late," Applebloom said. " Well, see ya tomorrow gals!" "Bye Applebloom and Scoots!" Said Sweetie Belle as she walked away towards Bits Avenue. "Oh, um. . . Yeah, see you girls later!" Scootaloo said. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom walked away leaving Scootaloo alone under a streetlight, Scootaloo wished she could go with them, but she knew too well she couldn't. I better leave before ponies start to notice I'm alone Scootaloo thought. Right when she was about ride, she smelled something. It was coming from SugarCube Corner, and it was only 2 houses away. Scootaloo was hungry, she hadn't eaten all day, 2 days in fact! She did have a few stomach aches here and there, but she was used to pain. That was her friend, her guide, her life, and all she knew was pain. Ever since she was born she knew pain. That was all she had to remember her parents. Scootaloo raced towards the bakery, and hid in a bush. No pony was present, nows her chance. She hid under one of the tables near the door, and looked for that amazing scent. Cupcakes Scootaloo confirmed. She found the red box that must held at least a dozen cupcakes. She knew stealing was wrong but this is weather she gets to eat tonight, or suffer pain. All Scootaloo wants is to have a week with no stomach aches. She was thankful she hadn't gotten any deadly sickness after all these years in the streets. As she reached for the box, she heard a familiar voice. "Don't worry Mr & Mrs. Cake! I be back with those diapers in a jiffy!" Said Pinkie Pie. Scootaloo quickly grab the box with her mouth, raced to the window, threw the box, and ran out the door as quick as she could! "Huh, what was that?" Pinkie said. She looked around to see if she could find where that *thud* came from. She then realize her dozen cupcakes were missing. "Huh, again? That's the 23th time this month!" She exclaimed. She trotted outside and looked around. Nothing. She concluded it must a have been a stray cat landing or something. She then walked away towards the nearest baby store. "That was a close one!" Scootaloo whispered to herself. She then placed the red box on her scooter and went back to Sweet Apple Acres. It's was 7:42pm, and the stars were beginning to show. Scootaloo wasn't much of a stargazer, but she did love how the stars looked. Princess Luna was her favorite princess after all. Thanks to her, she learned to face her fears and now Rainbow Dash is her metaphorical sister! She stopped looking at the stars when the sky was covered in trees. She arrived at Sweet Apple Acres, the hills were covered in trees themselves! Scootaloo took the path that the Flim & Flam brothers used to get to Sweet Apple Acres. She arrived at the gate where the Apple Family was challenged to a Cider Competition. She then put the red box filled with cupcakes on her back. She saw the farm ahead of her, she was careful not to be seen. The light on Applebloom's window just turned off. She must have fallen asleep. Scootaloo went to the forest of apples trees in front of the farm and disappeared. She arrived at the Cutie Mark Crusaders Clubhouse, Scootaloo looked around to see if no pony followed her. She confirmed no pony was around, she went inside and closed the door. Scootaloo set aside the baked goods and pulled on a floor planked that Applebloom forgot to nail down when she was fixing the old clubhouse. Inside was a blanket, a pillow, and her Cutie Mark Crusaders Cape (trademark). She set her pillow and blanket, and opened the red box. 12 cupcakes! That was enough for Scootaloo to have a stomach ache free week, maybe for 2 if she found more food! She ate one of the cupcakes and was taken by the deliciousness of the cupcake. Her taste buds rocked, and jumped, and exploded. The taste was amazing! She decided to save some for tomorrow, and then laid down. She was closing her eyes, almost asleep. Her eye lids getting heavier by the second, then she was finally asleep. boom She woke up with a pillow on her head. what was that Scootaloo thought. At first she thought it a Sonic Rainboom, but it was to quiet. There was also no earthquake, or bright lights. Scootaloo looked outside. No rainbows? This was odd, that "boom" was so distant, what caused it? Well both you and Scootaloo don't know. But just when Scootaloo turned around, she saw a bright long comet rocking over the clubhouse all the way near the Everfree Forest! "Whoa! What was that?!" Said Scootaloo. "it landed near Everfree forest!" Just then Scootaloo came up with the most ridiculous idea ever. "Cutie Mark Crusader Shooting Star investigator is: Go!" She said. She quickly grab her helmet and scooter, and placed her blanket, pillow, and box back inside the hole on the floor. She then raced away towards the object and cloud of smoke, not knowing what will happen.                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Scootaloo was all to familiar with the Everfree Forest, after all she almost turned to stone there along with her friends. She thought there's was no other danger besides the Cockatrice. Scootaloo wasn't scared of the stories that ponies tell about the forest. She was just the like animals, she took care of herself. As for the clouds, she concluded that since clouds were so light, the wind must be pushing them or something. She arrived at the Everfree Forest near Fluttershy's house, but far enough to not be seen. The town was right behind Scootaloo, there was a road also leading toward the town. She wonder why Fluttershy want awakened by the crash landing. Scootaloo concluded that she must have been a heavy sleeper. She walked along the path and also followed the trail of smoke that was in front of her blocking the view of the mountains. She was nervous but determined to find the meteorite. I wonder what my Cutie Mark will be, thought Scootaloo. Maybe a comet! Or a shooting star! Or a magnifying glass with a shooting star! "Whoa-ow!" Exclaimed Scootaloo. She landed in what appears to be a ditch. It was warm, black, and was surrounded by fire. Scootaloo got up and looked around, the trail of smoke was in front of her. She began walking towards it and was cautious of what might happen. She couldn't hear the animals, she thought they must have ran off. As she approached the object she questioned weather she should go back. The smoke was clearing and the object was also becoming clearer. "It's-it's-it's-i- it's a box," Scootaloo said. "A blue. Box." She decided to looked around, she saw a sign on the side and was able to read it. "Police. Public. Call. Box?" She said. "Seriously, I came all this way for a 'Police' box?!" Annoyed, Scootaloo buck the blue box with all her might. "Stupid box," Said Scootaloo "huh?" There was a handle on top of the box. Curious, Scootaloo climb on top, (the Box was on a slope) and pulled the handle with her mouth since the handle was too small for her hooves. Locked Scootaloo confirmed. "Great, now what?!" Exclaimed Scootaloo. "Maybe I should wait. All good things come to those who wait." Scootaloo then sat near the "Police box" on the warm soil, waiting to see if she as right.                                                                                          *2 hours later* "Ugh, this is stupid! Why am I even here! It's not like anypony is waiting for me, but dang it I should be asleep!" Scootaloo yelled. Outraged, she kicked the "Police Box" then kick the dirt, and started to walk away. As she was, she heard a door open. Scootaloo turned around and was blasted by a wave of smoke. It almost felt like a giant fist hitting her in the face! "*Cough* *cough* *cough*, Ugh, what the hay? Who did that!?" Scootaloo yelled. The smoke was clearing and she was beginning to see pony shaped . . . Thing? "Ahhhh! Are you an alien! Please don't eat me! I tasted really, really bad!" Scootaloo said nervously. The pony said something, but Scootaloo couldn't hear it quite well. "W-w-what?" She asked. "cactus. . ." It said. "What?" Said Scootaloo. "Do. . . You . . . Have. . . Any . . . Cactus?" It asked in a clearer voice. It sounded young, male, and had a British accent. It's voice was low, like a 4/10 low. He's coat was brown, and he's mane was darker brown. He was also sweating. He was quite handsome, he looked 16 by human to pony standards. "Cactus?" Scootaloo asked. "Yea, I'm starving! I haven't eaten since. . . 3 hours ago!" He said. "N-no, I don't have any cactus on me." Scootaloo said nervously. "Oh. . . Oi, I have to ask you something!" He said. "W-w-what?" Scootaloo "Am I ginger?" "N-no." "Blast!" "U-u-u-uh, a-are you g-gonna e-e-eat me?" Scootaloo asked nervously. "What? No, why?" He asked. "Oh, g-good! My name is Scootaloo." Scootaloo said. "Hello there Scootaloo!" He said. "Who. Are. You?" Scootaloo asked. "Me?" He said with a grin. "I'm the Doctor!" "Doctor Who?" Scootaloo asked. "Just, The Doctor!" He said //-------------------------------------------------------// Bumpy Ride //-------------------------------------------------------// Bumpy Ride "Okay, let's see. . . Ah, here we go!" Said the mysterious man. By my calculations, I have a 34% chance of failing. If I go to any dimension that's really different, then my chances increase by 72% He thought let's see if I mess this up. Lets see. Willy button, shaky wakey lever, giggly switch, and pressing random keys just for fun! All right "Toward Adventure!" He yelled. *bling* The machine then was making a weird noise. Going like this: Wooorm, weeerm, wroomomom, wromomomo. Or something like that. "Hah! This is gonna be fun, sexy!" He said to the machine. "Oh, TARDIS this is gonna be- *Crash*" The "TARDIS" tilted violently, and then started shaking. The man was being thrown and shaked. "Oh no." He said. BONG! "Not that!" He said. "No, no, no, NO, NO, NO!" He continued in anger. BONG! Wiggly lever, rammy tammy button, code: 11; reduce anti matter by 7%! *CRASH* make that 8% he thought. The TARDIS is falling apart. The TARDIS doesn't belong in the dimension the man is taking it. The universe is forcing it back, but the TARDIS is forcing itself into it. it's like a ball bouncing between two sheets of Time & Space paper! I'll rip one or both! He thought. BONG! alright, just gotta pull the switch, remove a few W.I.M.P.S, aaaand! BONG! "NOW!" He said out loud. The man was thrown back into the ground, the Bell stopped and the TARDIS was stable. "Ow, well. that's interesting. System check, alright. Hm, what's the noise?" He said. It was a humming but that was Autotune to high and low, and was very quiet. He looked around. Nothing, he could've find it. Just as he as looking, a Liquidly white looking web-wall came from one side of the TARDIS to the other. The noise gradually increased, and pasted through the man. "Ow!" He said. It was a cold, wet, shocking, smooth feeling. The man felt greatly weaker. "Ohhhh, oh, ow, ugh. What the Boli?" He said. He felt a tingling sensation on his hands and face. Great fear struck him. He hoped, he begged it wasn't what he thought it was. He looked at his hand, It was slightly gold. It was getting brighter and yellower. "No." He said. He looked at his other hand, It was the same. No, please! Not yet! It's only been 71 years!!! He thought He's hand were now spewing out golden rays, it would have been beautiful, if the meaning was different. "No, please! I don't want to go! Not yet! PLEASE!" He yelled. He knew it was futile. "I'm Sorry! I'm so sorry!" He yelled to no one. His hands were glowing so brightly, he knew what will happen. Memories flooded his mind, his friend, family, Adventures, and lastly his wife. "I guess everyone has to fail at some point," He said "Guess my calculations were wrong. . ." Just then, he exploded with golden rays shooting out of his hands and head. He looked calm, then closed his eyes. The last thing that came from that face, was a golden tear drop. His body was then shrinking. His face became bigger, his hands were gone. He no longer fit into his tuxedo, and his suit ripped then burned with golden flames. His hair became shorter, and so did his teeth. All that stayed were his eye, like they were there forever. He was screaming in pain, the worst pain he could ever felt. He wanted to die, why couldn't he just die right there, alone like he has always been? He stopped, then looked around. He was tired, so, so tired. Then he blackout.                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ warning: entering. . . Un. . . .phere. "Uh, huh?" He said "What?" He couldn't hear well, then he heard that warning. Warning. . . Unkn. . . Atmo. . .re. what, what happened? He thought. WARNING: ENTERING UNKNOW ATMOSPHERE! "What!" He yelled The TARDIS then started spinning and shaking, the . . . Man was thrown everywhere, he was a rag doll in a falling box. Sparkles where flying everywhere, pillars were falling, and fire was everywhere, even on the toilet (don't ask). "Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!" He yelled WARNING: ENTERING UNKNOWN ATMOSPHERE "STOP! STOP! STOP!" The TARDIS was out of control, the "man" was pressing buttons, pulling switches, and even banging the control console with the wrong side of his hammer. "NO, NO, NO, NO. NO. NO. STOP!" He yelled LANDING IN ONE MINUTE. Fire was burning the "man's" "hands", he was sweating uncontrollably. He was thrown away from the controls into a wall. "AH! STUPID GRAVITY!" He yelled. He kicked himself back into the console, he couldn't see an inch in front of him but he knew the controls by heart. The TARDIS continued to shake & spin, he couldn't do anything! if I just aim the TARDIS to the side of this planet, I might be able to survive! He thought. He grabbed a long purple lever but was immediately thrown again, the stick was turned to the left. that's not good The temperature was beginning to rise, the TARDIS was on fire. The "man" couldn't reach the console, a pillar landed on him, pinning him down. There was no escape, the TARDIS continue to spin & shake uncontrolably and the "man" felt like he was gonna throw up. The ship was getting closer, the blue box was turning redder and hotter. 10 SECONDS " THIS IS GONNA HHUUUUURRRT!" The "man" yelled. 8 7 6 He looked at the monitor, a town! He might be saved! 3 2 1 *BOOM* *CRASH*                                                           ___________________________________________ "Uhh, ow meh head. . ." The "man" said " who hit me with a neutron star, aye?" He looked at his TARDIS to see the damage, it was covered with smoke and fire. The TARDIS doors were above him, the control panel was on its side. great! he thought sarcastily. Next to him were ladders, quite long and apart. good thing I set up those ladders. And Kevin said they were redundant. he thought. He climbed up to the TARDIS doors, he was coughing from the smoke around him. He need air, clean air. He unlocked the TARDIS doors, and opened them with all his might. He was exhausted. "*Cough* *cough* *cough*, Ugh, what the hay? Who did that!?" yelled someone a person! Thank the stars! "Ahhhh! Are you an alien! Please don't eat me! I tasted really, really bad!" said the female voice nervously. "cactus," The man tried to say. "W-w-what?" She asked. "cactus. . ." He said. "What?" Said the female. "Do. . . You . . . Have. . . Any . . . Cactus?" He asked in a louder voice. It sounded young, but he couldn't see well, it looked orange with purple hair. It was small, and sounded like a child "Cactus?" She asked. "Yea, I'm starving! I haven't eaten since. . . 3 hours ago!" He said. "N-no, I don't have any cactus on me." She said nervously. "Oh. . . Oi, I have to ask you something!" He said. "W-w-what?" She said "Am I ginger?" "N-no." "Blast!" "U-u-u-uh, a-are you g-gonna e-e-eat me?" The female asked nervously. "What? No, why?" He asked. "Oh, g-good! My name is Scootaloo." She said. "Hello there Scootaloo!" He said. "Who. Are. You?" Scootaloo asked. "Me?" He said with a grin. "I'm the Doctor!" "Doctor Who?" Scootaloo asked. God, I love it when they say that! "Just, The Doctor!" The "Man" said //-------------------------------------------------------// Welcome to Ponyville Doctor. //-------------------------------------------------------// Welcome to Ponyville Doctor. "Doctor? Like you fix ponies up or something?" Scootaloo asked. "Well something lik- wait hang on. Ponies?" The Doctor asked. "Yeah, like you fix them up or something." She said. "What?" Said The Doctor. He rubbed his eyes, seeing 1 inch in front of you isn't really helpful. As his vision became clear all he could was a orange coated equine with a purple mane with smoke around her, with a forest behind the smoke. "Huh, hey you, Equine have you seen a human female around here?" He asked Scootaloo. "What's a human?" Scootaloo said. The Doctor was startled by the pony. That just talked. He fell back into the TARDIS and landed right on the control panel, which was a 7 foot drop. Did that pony just talk English? he thought. Oh God, my back! I'm getting too old for this! "Whoa! Hey, you okay!?" Echoed Scootaloo's voice. "Ow, I'm. Fine! Just. Fine." The Doctor said. "Can you get up, and why do yo- sound. So. Far. Away. . ." Said Scootaloo in shock. She climb on top of the TARDIS and was able to see the inside. "It's. it's! I-" "Bigger on the inside, I know! Isn't it brilliant!" The Doctor interrupted. "Can you get up?" Scootaloo asked. "Yeah sure, let me jus- oh." He paused. He looked at his hand, or what was his hand. A hoof. I have a hoof! The Doctor thought. "Well that was a, interesting regeneration!" He exclaimed. "Regener- what?" Scootaloo asked. "N-n-nothing." He said. "Say, what are you?" "A Pegasus." She said. "No, your species!" He yelled. "Pony, what don't you know?" She asked. "Wait, I'm a pony. I'm a freakin pony!" He said to himself. "Yeah, And?" Scootaloo asked. "This is so weird! I never been a pony before!" The Doctor exclaimed. "Did you hit your head or something, cause we're all ponies you know. Beside griffins, and dragons, and-" "Wait, Griffins? Dragons! Haha! Oh, TARDIS you're amazing!" He kissed the control panel and began hugging the TARDIS. "TARDIS? Is that what this is?" Scootaloo asked. "Yeah why?" "The name sounds stupid." "Oi! Her name is NOT stupid, and she can hear you, you know!" The Doctor said. "Her? It's a machine, I'm pretty sure it can't." "Kids these days." Said The Doctor. He began climbing up the ladders, he had difficulty since his life didn't depend on it. He finally got up and was face to face with Scootaloo. She was small, about 2/3 his size and was very cute. "Say. Do you know where we are?" The Doctor asked. "Oh, we're in the Everfree Forest, why?" Scootaloo replied. "Where is the Everfree?" "In Ponyville." "Where is Ponyville?" "In Equestria, did you hit your head or something? I'm 8, and even I know this!" Scootaloo said. "Wait, you're 8? Well what does that make me!" The Doctor questioned. "I don't know, 15-17 years old." She replied. ". . . What!" The Doctor said. "Yeah, what you don't know your own age too?!" "That's not possible, my DNA can't had change me into a teenager. Who knows what effects this might do to me, though me surviving the crash proves my body's stability. But still how could my DNA have turned me into a teenager-" "Hey, Alien dude. I'm still here." Said Scootaloo "Huh, I know. I'm The Doctor, not "Alien Dude." The Doctor said. "I know that, but what was that stuff about DNA and things or whatever?" "Nothing, just nothing. By the way you said you were 8, where are your parents?" "O-o-oh! U-um," Quick Scoots, if he finds out I'm homeless he'll send me to the Orphanage for sure! Scootaloo thought. "They're u-um, back home, yup! I just snuck out to, um, get here cause, um, I wanted to get my Cutie Mark." She said "Cutie- What?" The Doctor asked. "Cutie Mark, it's that thing on your rump." She replied. "Huh?" The Doctor turned to face his own butt and saw a hourglass symbol. "Huh, what's this mean, aye?" "Oh, that's your special talent, we all get one." Said Scootaloo. "How come you don't have one?" Asked The Doctor. "Oh, that's because, well I haven't discovered my special talent." "So you came all this way just to get a symbol on your rump, I'm guessing these Cutie Farts-" "Cutie Marks-" "Whatever, are important to you ponies?" "Yeah, without them we wouldn't know what we're good at." "Huh, but if what if your talent was nothing, just a white dot, you let it tell you what you'll be in life?" "Well, in a way, yes." "Huh, that seems depressing." The Doctor replied. "So what's your talent, something to do with time or something?" Asked Scootaloo. "U-u-uh, yea, I'm a-a, Clockmaker!" The Doctor said nervously "But what's with the TARDIS thing?" "O-oh, that's my factory! It's underground." "But you fell form the sky!" "MAGIC!" "What?" "Magic" ". . ." Great, nice going Doctor The Doctor thought. Scootaloo was staring into The Doctor eyes, like she'll get the truth just by staring at him. "Okay." Scootaloo said. "W-what?" "Okay. But how did you use magic if you don't have a horn?" She questioned. "What? What do you mean horn?" "You're not a unicorn, you can't use magic without one." Magic ponies! Oh this is just FANTASTIC! Oh right, back to the matter at hand. "My unicorn friend help me with it. He enchanted it." The Doctor said. "Oh, I get it." Said Scootaloo. "Anyway change of subject, I should get you home. Your parents will get worried if you don't go back." The Doctor said. "U-uh, don't worry, heheh-he, I can get b-back on my own!" Scootaloo said with the most dishonest grin. "You sure, the forest is dangerous." He said. "Says the pony who can't remember his own age. Besides I came here just fine, I'm sure I can get back safely." She said. "Okay fine by me! By the way, this town; Ponyville, is it far?" The Doctor asked. "No, it's just half a mile away." She said "Great! Can you come to the nearest entrance in the Everfree and introduce me to the town? I'm new after all, I should meet the locals!" He said. "Sure, why not! What time?" "Any, just knock on my door and we'll be all set!" "That blue box?" "Yeah!" "Okay." "Alright then see you later!" The Doctor said then turned around. He somehow tripped on his own leg, causing him to fall back into the TARDIS. Ohhhh, that looked like it hurt Scootaloo thought. It was 10:24 pm, no pony was awake. Not even a mouse. Scootaloo raced to the clubhouse, she can already hear her blanket calling her. What an odd pony, She thought first he lands near the Everfree, he doesn't know what's a pony, he has underground factory that makes clocks, he doesn't know how old he is, and he asked me for a cactus! That's really weird, who asked for a cactus after they crashed landed? Scootaloo thought. By the time she pushed that thought aside, she was in Ponyville making her way towards Sweet Apple Acres. The street lights were out, and there's was no pony to be seen. She finally made it to the clubhouse, she didn't need to sneak her way in this time. Once again she removed the plank and set everything back. She was really tired. The Doctor Scootaloo thought. now that's a weird name. Scootaloo then fell asleep, unaware of what will happen to her life. . .                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The sunlight hit Scootaloo's eyes like gentle feathers on her face. She opened her eyes, only to be blasted by white light. She was used to sleeping late, she once slept at 2:19 am. Scootaloo got up and opened the plank, she ate the rest of the cupcake she didn't eat yesterday. Scootaloo place the box back inside the hole, along with her blanket and pillow. It was 8:51 am. The Pegasus were planning on making it rain in 2 hours, which was enough time to meet up with her friends. But she remembered what happened yesterday, and the pony who called himself " The Doctor ". I should meet up with him, I'm sure Applejack & Rarity wouldn't let A.B and S.B out in the rain she thought. Scootaloo went to the mirror that was facing the door, she fixed her hair and fur then rub her eyes. She continued to look in the mirror, all she saw was a little filly with scars, blood, and tears. She turned away, she never like mirrors, they were painful to look at. Scootaloo put on her helmet, put the plank back, and headed to the Everfree to meet The Doctor.                                              ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Oh dear, you took quite the fall. I guess I forgot to divide by 3 when we went here." Said The Doctor. Scootaloo traveled the dirt road Applebloom used when she was frustrated and went to Zecora. The TARDIS was right outside the Everfree, being clean by the brown pony. "Ahh! Hello Scootafoo!" He said. "It's Scootaloo." Scootaloo said in a annoyed tone. "Right, so when should we start?" He asked. "Anytime I guess." "Great! Lets go!" He said. pppttt, magic ponies! The Doctor thought.                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Ooh, so many things! You ponies have almost everything," The Doctor said as they were walking through Trot Street. "Oh you have pianos, cakes, houses, oh my!" "Yeah, it's not much of a big deal." Scootaloo said. "Oooo, balloons, tables, roads, paintings, quills, sofas, beds, doors, restaurants, and even fezzes! Fezzes are cool, I should get one!" He said. "Fezzes really, they look ridiculous!" Scootaloo said. "No they don't. And bow ties, bow ties are also cool!" "Ugh, I have a feeling this is gonna go on forever." "Haha! This is amazing! I wonder what I can eat, I'm equine so I'm a herbivore, so no bacon, blast!" The Doctor said. "You are one strange pony, you know that." "Strange? learning to walk in 10 minutes is strange. . . And also something else is." He said in a dark tone. "What, what's wrong?" Scootaloo asked. "Where is everyone?" "'Everyone'?" "Yes, there's no one here." The Doctor was right, they were alone, but why? "First off, it's 'everypony'. Second, it's 'no pony'. And third, you're right, that's weird." Said Scootaloo. The street was silent, and the whole town looked deserted. "Scootaloo, where is everypony?" The Doctor asked. "I-I-I don't know! Everypony should be here!" Scootaloo said nervously. "Somethings not right." He said "be on guard, Scootaloo." "O-okay." She said. They continue to walk all over town. They had no luck finding anypony, they were all alone. "I should get back to the TARDIS, maybe she might be able to find someone." He said. "Uh, Doc. I think we found somepony." Scootaloo said. "What?" He looked up, there was a pony in front of them. His mane was black and coat was slightly yellow. He wore a suit, and his eyes were green. "We've been waiting for you." He said. 2 more came from behind them, 3 where on top of the house next to The Doctor & Scootaloo. Another walked in front of them, they were all they same but him, he was a unicorn. "Come with us, if you wish to continue existing." "U-u-uh, Doctor!" Yelled Scootaloo. "What do we do?!" She asked nervously. "I-I-I don't know!" He said. The unicorn walked up to them, and with a flash of green they were both on the ground. All The Doctor could see was a flash of light before blacking out. "Welcome to Ponyville, Doctor" //-------------------------------------------------------// Rytions //-------------------------------------------------------// Rytions The Doctor woke up in a dark room with chains, covered in blood, hanging from the ceiling. He looked around to find an exit, none. He forgot his Sonic Screwdriver back at the TARDIS, making his chances of escaping go down. "Damn, where am I?" The Doctor asked to the emptiness. Where's Scootaloo? Dammit, why is there already danger here? He looked all over the walls, there was no cracks or openings. He was sealed in. He looked down to see his own saliva, it was dry. I must have been here for a while. If I was truly sealed then there would be no Oxygen. He confirmed. He looked at the bloody chains, the blood was fresh. The chains went up to the dark ceiling, The Doctor couldn't tell if it was infinite. I should climb up, but how? I have hooves! He tried using his arms but he couldn't hold on. He grab the chains with his hooves, he found this method much more easy. It was difficult to climb, the ceiling seemed to go on forever. The chains where getting bloodier, there was chunks of flesh. The Doctor was disgusted, the flesh was getting into his fur, and he was able to see bone in the flesh. Feeling lightheaded, The Doctor picked up the pace, feeling like there was no end! The Doctor saw a bit of light and more blood, this time on the walls. He continued up, not stopping for anything, until he saw a arm punctured by one of the chains around him. He was struck with fear, he saw a severed leg covered in blood, he saw the Cutie Mark; it was a Grape. Oh God what is this place? What have they been doing here!? Why did they take us? I gotta find Scootaloo, fast! The light was actually the walls up above, the white walls were also covered in blood. The Doctor saw a severed head, the pony's mouth & eyes were sewn together, with bloody tears coming from the eyes. His fear grew heavy, The Doctor pressed on. The whole room must have been 10 stories tall! The Doctor finally made it to the ceiling, on his left was a window, on his right a blue arm covered in blood. He swung back and forth, he was going to smash through the window. He kicked the window, but it wasn't enough. He accidentally bumped into the blue leg, causing it to fall. It took a few seconds for The Doctor to hear the leg hit the ground, it sounded far. The Doctor continue to swing, finally breaking the window. He landed on a white floor, he was in a hallway. The walls were white, the ceiling was a little bit too low. The hallway turned a corner to his right behind him, and his left in front of him. "Ugh, I hate hallways." The Doctor said. He had difficultly running since he was new to the whole 4 legs thing. He went forward then turned a left, since that was the only direction. He continued to go forward then left, the second hallway had a hallway leading to the right half way through the original hallway. He turned right, in front of him was a Titanium- Iron alloy door, by The Doctor's guess. The keypad was a 5 digit password. I don't have time for this! The keypad was nailed, he was lucky he had a long face (lol). He bit the nails and began to twist it until it came off. ugh, it has that burned mercury taste! Just 3 more to go. It took The Doctor a few minutes, but he managed to unscrew the last nail with his mouth. He opened the pad, inside were chips, RAMS, wires, and a few lights. The Keypad was a level 7 code, 7 being one of the easiest ( it goes from 1- 25 ). The Doctor than began messing with the wires. Let's see, cut the blue wire, remove the SG-34 chip, place the 55-F chip here, and then cut the white wire! "Hah!" He cheered. The massive door split horizontally, then vertically, and last diagonally. The hallway in front of him had a pentagon shape, the edges had green lights, and there were circuit markings everywhere. The Doctor quickly ran, he took a left then right, he took note of what was around him that was useful but unfortunatly there wasn't. He found a set of stairs that zig zag it's way up 2 stories. The Doctor slowed down, he didn't get to try walking up stairs. The stairs ended, in front of him was another Titianium Iron alloy door. There were two hallways going left & right, but what surprised The Doctor was that the door needed a security card. "Blast, without my screwdriver I can't open it!" He exclaimed. He walked up to the slot on the wall and examined it. No nails or openings, the hallways left & right where dead ends. Great! Now what? He thought. The Doctor began examining the door, but with no luck. He pressed his ear against the door, he could hear something. It wasn't a noise but more of a rumble. Someone's coming! He step back to the right hallway, then prepared to pounce. The door opened, there were two guards that looked just like the ponies from before. One had a what seemed to be a small black baseball bat, with two blue rings on each end but the handle on his hip. The Doctor pounced on the first guard, he grab the black bat with his mouth. The bat came to life when he held on the handle, the bat's rings spewed out lighting between them. The Doctor swung the bat at the second guard electrocuting him, and causing him to be throw backwards 5 feet away. The first guard threw The Doctor off him, both The Doctor and the guard stood up. The Doctor knew he would lose the fight, he never hooves fight somepony before. He threw the bat at the guard, the guard was surprised by this. The bat electrifying him, making him collapsed, and go unconscious. The Doctor walked up to the guard, he had a green card with a blue line on top with random numbers. well that was lucky The Doctor grab the key card (mouth), walked over to the slot, and slid the card across it. The door opened, The Doctor took the bat with him and became running forward. Don't worry Scootaloo, I'll be there before you know it!                                         _____________________________________________________________ Where am I? Thought Scootaloo. She was alone, cold, and scared. She looked around but was only greeted by darkness. The only thing she could see was her own hooves, like they were shining but light didnt reflect back. "Doctor? Hello!" She yelled There was no pony around. She was alone. Scootaloo walked, but couldn't find anything. She heard a voice, it was quiet. It was telling her something. "What! Hello! Who's there?" Scootaloo asked. The voice grew louder but still was hard to hear. "Hello?" "you're . . . less" it said "W-what?" Asked Scootaloo "YoU'rE wOrThLeSs!" it shouted! "AHHHH!" Screamed Scootaloo "It WaS aLwAyS yOuR fAuLtE¡" "AHHHHH! What are you talking about?!" "YoU KnOw WhAt Im TaLkInG aBoUt!!!!¡101!!" " NO I DON'T!" Screamed Scootaloo. "IT WAS YOUR FAULT! ALL YOUR FAULT, YOU'RE THE REASON THEY'RE DEAD, YOU'RE THE REASON WHY YOU'RE ALONE! AND NOW YOU, ARE GONNA BE THE REASON WhY yOuLl Be AlOnE, fOrEvEr!" "Wha-IT WAS NEVER MY FAULT THEY DIED! I NEVER WANTED THEM TO GO!!! AND IM NOT ALONE!" "YOU ARE SO SAD, YOU EVEN CONVINCE YOURSELF THAT YOU DIDN'T DO IT. EVERYTHING POINTS TO YOU, AND YOU KNOW IT!" "I DIDN'T KILL THEM! WHO ARE YOU? GO AWAY!" "YOU NEVER CHANGE YOU WORTHLESS BRAT! YOUR FRIENDS AVOID YOU, ALL YOUR LIFE IS JUST SUFFERING! WHY DON'T YOU JUST DIE YOU STUPID WORTHLESS TRASH! ALL YOU DO IS STARVE, STARVE, STARVE. YOU DO EVERYTHING THING JUST TO GET A STUPID MARK ON YOUR ASS! YOU'RE SO PATHETIC! " "SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UUUUUUUPPP!!!" "YOU'LL JUST SUFFER MORE, PAIN WILL ALWAYS GUIDE YOU! WHAT'S THE POINT IN LIVING IF YOU'LL NEVER BE HAPPY! TELL ME SCOOTALOO! TELL ME WHY YOU DID IT? WHY WHY, WHHY!!!!" Scootaloo couldn't take it, tears were running down her cheeks. Memories of her childhood flooded through, her parents, friends, and house. She saw blood everywhere, bones hanging. She began to run, she was blinded by her own tears. She wanted it to stop, she wanted to run away, she was crying for her salvation. Scootaloo had enough, it was like a giant weight collapsed in her heart. She was faced to a mirror covered in blood. She was horrified, she wanted to look away. All she saw was her and a hole in her chest, spewing out blood. "NOOOOOOOOO!!!!" She screamed The mirror cracked and fell to pieces. The darkness of the floor started to crack, then gave way. Scootaloo started falling into the infinite darkness. As she was falling, grey clouds were forming around her. They began to form pictures, one showed Applebloom in Sweet Apple Acres, another showed Sweetie Belle, and the last one showed Rainbow Dash. "Look at you, you're so pathetic. How did I ever become friends with yOu¿!" Said Applebloom. "How could anypony love you? Even your parents didn't love yOu." Said Sweetie Belle. "Why can't you just die you little brat? I can't believe you wanted me to be your sister. IDiOt." Said Rainbow Dash in the most Darkest tone. Scootaloo was in despair, nobody loved her. She wanted to die. Why couldn't she just die. She wanted the nightmare to end. She wanted everything to end. Then all she saw was a pair of blue eyes that seemed to have suffered an eternity. . .                                           _____________________________________________________ "scootaloo, you okay?" "Huh? *sniff* Where am I?" Asked Scootaloo. "Oh thank the stars you're alright! Get up, we need to go!" Said The Doctor. 'D-d-Doctor?" "Yes! It's okay Scootaloo, it was just a nightmare. You're gonna be fine, I promise!" "Nightmare?" "Yes, those ponies have set you up in this machine. It causes you to experience your worst fears." The machine was 2 stories tall, wires were popping out. There were ponies on the ground, some were on a table hooked up to a monitor. "W-why?" "These ponies feed on cortisone, a chemical that cause sadness, they are also using other chemicals to fuel their spacecraft to get back home. They need about 1,000,000,000,000,000 Tons of Chemicals that you ponies produce to get off this planet! Following me so far?" Asked The Doctor. "Huh, I think so. Wait so they're aliens!?" Asked Scootaloo. "Uhh, yes! They appear to call themselves The Rytions." "W-we have to stop them! We can just let everypony suffer like this!" "Agreed, but how?" "I-I don't know." Said Scootaloo. "Hmmm, Ah! Has anything weird happen in Ponyville?" Asked The Doctor. "Not really, just heat waves, and street candles going off at night-" "-Wait heat waves, street candles going off (street candles last all night)! AHH, Doctor you are so stupid! How did I not notice the temperature!" He exclaimed. "What? I don't get it." Said Scootaloo. "They're not going to get enough fuel just by using all these ponies. They must be using any nearby plasma to use as fuel. Hint, the street candles go out faster! They must be using an Sv1.0 Plasma Farmer to gather all types of plasma from this world. The machine also creates heat, causing the heat waves. If I can just get my screwdriver I might be able to corrupt the machine to self destruct!" "B-but, wouldn't that kill everypony?" "No, the machine isn't that powerful. We're going to need to gather most of these Rytions to the Plasma Farmer, but I also need my screwdriver! Hmm, Scootaloo did you see any computers on your way here?" "U-uh, yeah! When they were dragging me here I saw a weird computer thing down that hall," Scootaloo pointed to the door on the left. "Why? What are you gonna do?" She questioned. "I need you to get out of here!" "W-w-what? What about you! I can't just leave everypony behind!" "Shh, don't worry. Here take this." The Doctor handed Scootaloo a sliver key, Scootaloo had never seen such a weird key. "W-what, is it?" "It's the key to my TARDIS, I need you to go inside, grab a weird golden screwdriver, then meet me at the entrance of their base! I'll distract the Rytions long enough for you to escape. Can you do that?" "I-I-I'll try." "Good, come on then!" The Doctor and Scootaloo opened the door Scootaloo mention earlier, ahead of them was a Rytion computer. They both walked up to it, the hallways were the same as before. "Okay, let's see. The security card says: 37S3Bg197. Maybe that's the password?" The Doctor said. He enter the code, to his surprise it work. The computer screen had yellow out lines, the words (symbols) were purple, and the background was black. "Okay, map. Of. Base. Haha! Here we are. There's a exit near us, I'll take you there Scootaloo. Once you escape and come back with my screwdriver go to this computer, enter the password with this card," The Doctor handed Scootaloo the card. "Go to alarms, it's this button, and press the emergency shut down, it's the longest one. I'll know that you got it, I'll race back to get you, we'll go to the Plasma Farmer, gather all the Rytion there, and book it!" "O-o-okay, I don't know if I can do this!" "Yes you can! Theres also one important thing you must remember, this could be your very salvation, always do this because this will be the reason why you are alive!" "W-what?" Asked Scootaloo. "Run."                                             _______________________________________________________ "Where's the computer?" Asked Scootaloo. "I don't know, the map said there was one right here." Said The Doctor. They were in some kind of cave, behind them was the same pentagon hallway from before. In front of them another Titainium-Iron alloy door, the hallway was also blending in to the dirt and rocks of the cave. "Maybe the map was wrong?" "No it can't, the map showed it was right here!" The Doctor pressed on the rock in front of him, cause it to sink into the wall. The rock moved to the side and behind it was the computer. "Or maybe they hid it, so nopony can find it!" Exclaimed Scootaloo. "Now we're getting somewhere!" Cheered The Doctor. The Doctor entered the password, and finding the right button. To his amazement, typing on these computer were quite easy even though he had hooves. The door opened, revealing Ponyville just half a mile away. "You ready?" Asked The Doctor. "Y-yeah, I guess." "Good, remember: Press the 'Emergency Shut Down' button here, and I come back for you. Got it?" "Got it!" "Good, now Go!" Scootaloo quickly dashed straight for Ponyville, leaving The Doctor alone. "Alright you Rytion scum," Cursed The Doctor. "You wanna feed on tears, I'll give you something to cry about!" The Doctor began messing with the computer, trying to find the alarm. He found the command: SEND ALL GUARDS TO;. He scrolled down the list: Farm room, Weapons room, Meeting room, Bunkers, Infirmary, and lastly the Plasma Farm room. *beep* "ACCRHIT: SHHHVO BOOGCHI LACLAC HUGF ACRECTIC CE! (Attention: All guards to Plasma room; Code 10) "Alright you Rytion trash, come and get me!"                                                       __________________________________________ Scootaloo raced through the streets of Ponyville, the Everfree was just a half mile away. Scootaloo turned left at the shopping district, only to find 5 guards patrolling the area. Really? You gotta be kidding me! Why are they here? Above all places! Thought Scootaloo. "Gracqt, Morord Ace Volk blok naf (Area cleared, no equines in sight.)" Said one of the guards. A unicorn guard paused for a moment. "Uh folg, Dicect lorp vorlc: garvq pyt gy (An alarm has been triggered: Level 10, Go!)!" He said. They quickly dashed back to their base, not noticing the eyes in the bush they passed. Scootaloo quickly hopped out of the bush, checked if the coast was clear, then dashed to the Everfree Forest. She passed by a few guards returning back to the base, but she was lucky they were a safe distance. She made it to the outskirts of town, she could see the TARDIS in the distance. But that wasn't the only thing Scootaloo saw, 3 guards stood outside the TARDIS examinating the blue box. Oh no, what do I do? She thought. Scootaloo was hiding behind a store just outside the town, she looked around for anything to distract them. She found a wagon behind her filled with hammers and tools, behind the wagon was a construction site. I think I know what to do. Scootaloo thought.                                         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "HEY GUYS!" Yelled Scootaloo to the guards in the distance. They quickly took notice, then dashed straight for the construction site. Scootaloo got down from the 4 story tall structure, and made her way down stairs. The guards spilt up, one went to the back, one stayed outside, and the third will pursue Scootaloo. The first guard made it to the back, he started looking around. Right when he saw 2 purple eyes, he fell into unconsciousness. Scootaloo kicked the wagon full of hammers and tools at the guard, multiple tools fell on top of him knocking him out. The third guard heard the ruckus, and dashed to the back room. He saw his friendly down and a purple tail going up the stairs. He chased after the pony, then found her trapped in a room just on the other side. He walked to her, then suddenly couldn't feel the floor underneath him, then went into unconsciousness. Scootaloo saw the guard fall through the hole which she hid with a rag or something. She made her way upstairs, then over the edge. She saw the guard right where she wanted him. Scootaloo pushed a wagon filled with bricks on to the edge, the guard never knew had fell on top of him. Scootaloo cheered in victory, then made her way downstairs. She headed straight for the TARDIS. Upon arrival she check if she wasn't followed, then open the door. She lost her breath, it looked so much bigger than before. She saw a golden stick on the floor, the Sonic Screwdriver. "This must be it!" Scootaloo cheered.                                                     _____________________________________________________ "THAT'S RIGHT! COME AND GET ME!" Taunted The Doctor. The Rytions were on his tail, hundreds of them. They were shooting some type of gun that looks similar to a SCAR-H, but white, they were mounted with a saddle on their backs, they only need one hoof to fire it. They started firing, the weapons shot heavily consetraded gamma rays, they have no color but what gives them away is how they distort light. They G-waves kept coming, but The Doctor was too quick. The Doctor continued to run, he continued to run in a circle multiple times. The Rytions were in a rage, but The Doctor continued to insult them. "HA! I NEVER MET SUCH A SLOW FORM OF ORGANISMS IN MY LIFE! WHY DON'T YO-just. Quit . . . oh dear." The Doctor was trapped, he made it to a vein that cut of in a "+" formation. The Rytions blocked all the paths, guns and bat ready to attack. "You have interfered with our plans for far too long Doctor, you will not escape this time!" One of them said. "Wait, this time? What do you mean 'this time'?" The Doctor asked. "HA, you truly are stupid Doctor! You can't even remember what you did to us!" "Or I haven't did them yet." "What? What are you talking about!?" The Rytion demanded. "Well I'm a time lord, I can be at any point in time & space at anytime. Since I haven't done anything to you but you say I have in the past, that can only mean one thing idiots: My future self will go back to the past and ruin your day." The Doctor said in the most darkest tone. W-what?! IMPOSSIBLE!!!" "Not for me, you just gave me a spoiler that Guarantees that I will stop you, you can't change what will happened! How else will all those things I do in the past happen? Sorry chumps, but you just sealed your FATE!" "WHAT! NO! FIRE! KILL HIM, KILL HIM!" He ordered. And just when they were about to fire, just as The Doctor expected, the power went out. "WHAT HAPPENED!? KILL HIM YOU IDIOTS, KILL HIM!" They all opened fire, everything seemed to be distorted. The Doctor planned for this, he simply did the most easly thing to do: Duck. The blasts came from all directions, they all wizzed over The Doctor. The blast ended up killing a Rytion on the other side of the blockade. They continued firing, unaware that they were killing their own men. When the onslaught died down, all the Rytions surrounding The Doctor have died by their own friendlies. "Now that's one way to make an escape." The Doctor said. Now, time to get Scootaloo.                                                    ______________________________________________ Where is he?! Thought Scootaloo. She could hear more and more Rytions coming, most of them past her. Though one managed to spot her. "Equine scum, you're coming with me!" "Oh No!" Scootaloo looked everywhere, he was coming closer. There was no escape, Scootaloo began to walk backwards. The Sonic Screwdriver fell from her ear, then rolled front of her. There was a button on it, this was her only option. Scootaloo grab the screwdriver, pointed it at the Rytion, then pressed the button with her teeth. She closed her eyes, hoping something might happen. The screwdriver began making a weird sound but then was accompanied by another noise. Scootaloo heard something fall, it sounded heavy. She opened her eyes, only to find a silver bar on top of the Rytion. "Oh my Gosh, that worked!" She cheered, dropping the screwdriver. She heard footsteps coming her way, a lot of them. Then around the corner dashed a brown pony Scootaloo thought she never see. The Doctor was being heavily fired by more G-waves. He ran up to Scootaloo, picked up the screwdriver, and lifted Scootaloo on his back. They quickly dashed out of the room in time before they were cornered. "Hey Scootaloo, long time no see! Good job by the way! We're almost done, we just need to get to the plasma room, most of the Rytion are going there as we speak!" He said. "Okay!" *Vroooom* "Whoa! What was that!" Yelled Scootaloo. "Gamma rays, heavily concentrated, don't touch them." More blast were coming, The Doctor was running out of options. "Scootaloo!" The Doctor began messing with screwdriver (with his mouth) then gave it to her. "Point it at anything, just press the green button!" He shouted. "Got it!" She pressed the button at a wall, almost all the G-waves turned towards it cause a massive explosion. The Rytion were stopped instantly, they lost sight of them. "Whoa! That. Was. AWESOME!" Cheered Scootaloo. "It's not over yet. We're here!" They made it to a large room that looked like a rotunda, in the center was a cylinder shaped machine with pipes coming in and out of the wall to the machine. The temperature began to rise as they got closer, there was a panel. "Alright! Now-I. Just. need. too. . ." The Doctor passed out.                                                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~|~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "wake up. Wake up!please wake up!" "Uhh, what?" "Wake up!" "What? What happen?" "You past out! They're hundreds of them! We're trapped!" The Doctor got up and dashed to the panel, the began hacking the system. "Come on! Come on! NO NO NO! WHY?!" He yelled. "W-what? What's wrong?!" Scootaloo asked "I can't hack it, even my screwdriver can't hack it! It has no self destruct! There's only a shut off, but it will take too long, it won't stop the Rytion, they'll just keep coming back! I need time!" "W-what do we do?!" Then The Doctor said something that send a cold chill down Scootaloo's spin. "I. Don't. Know!" The Doctor began pacing, he was sweating and his pupils became small. Shadow of Rytions were passing by in the windows above. They were trapped. "W-wait, if this thing sucks in fire or whatever, can't we just send something that's heat related to blow it up?" Scootaloo asked. "Scootaloo You are a GEINUS!" Cheered The Doctor. He pulled out his screwdriver, he pointed up into the air. "What are you doing?" "You were right, the machine sucks in heat/ plasma if I can just find a few hydrogen particles, heat them up a bit, the machine will drag them into it, the machine will heat it up dramatically, and it will blow up and bingo! Got it!" He exclaimed. Scootaloo saw a yellow mist that emitted heat, it then went through the machine. The machine then started rattling. Hundreds of Rytions were in the room, but The Doctor and Scootaloo were already gone. "We have to hurry back to the farm room, we can lock the Titanium-iron alloy doors to protect us, and we'll be safe!" They made it back, The Doctor quickly started hacking the panel, the door closed. They're was banging on the door and then. *BOOM* The whole room started to shake, causing wires to fall and then lights out.                                                               _____________________________________ "Uuuhhhh, what happened?" Asked Applebloom. "A-Applebloom, is that you? I had the worst nightmare." Said Sweetie Belle. "Me too, where's Scootaloo?" "Hey gals!" Said Scootaloo. "What? Scoots, where are we?" Asked Applebloom. "In Sugarcube Corner. You all fell asleep in fact everypony did!" She said. "Huh?" "Yeah it was weird! But we're okay nothing bad happen!" "Weird I remember seein' these weird ponies dragging me into a cave." "Heh, must have been a weird dream." Said Scootaloo with a grin. Everypony was getting up, not knowing what has happen but one. Scootaloo looked up into the sky only to see a magical blue box flying away with an amazing pony, as if they will see each other again. "Thanks Doctor." Whispered Scootaloo. //-------------------------------------------------------// Adjusting //-------------------------------------------------------// Adjusting Ever seen a brown pony just walking around a Time And Relative Dimension In Space for no reason with a grin on his face? Me either. *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* *Clop* "Hehehehe! 'Clop'." Said The Doctor. He continued to trot around the TARDIS just smiling at the sound of his own hooves. He was still trying to prefect this, especially walking up & down stairs. Since his life doesn't depend on him walking, he was having a hard time. "Heheh! Clop, clop! Cloppity, cl-Ow!" Yelled The Doctor. See this is what happens when you don't watch where you're going! His hoof was caught on his bed sheets, causing him to fall on his chin. How he got there without me typing about it? I'll never know. "Maybe I should try walking up stairs. I'm pretty sure I got the hang of walking." He pull his hoof from the bed sheets and walked to the control room. He cleaned and fixed everything, but the TARDIS was still not working to its full capabilities. It's been 2 days since the Rytions were defeated by The Doctor. Scootaloo and The Doctor took 12 hours to get everypony on to the TARDIS, drag them out into the streets from the TARDIS, and wait for them to wake up from their nightmares. The cave was also closed by rocks, the explosion cause the top of the cave to collapse. It now just looks like a hill made of rocks. *Clop* *Clop*, *Clop* *Clop*, *Clop* *Clop*, *Clop* *Clop*. "Okay, l'ft hoof, right hoof, back l'ft hoof, then um. . . Back right? Yeah! Okay, I'm getting the hang of this! Ha! E'er seen a Time Lord walk on four hooves? Hahah, No!" He cheered. The Doctor was almost to the top of 12 stairs, giggling at the thought of him being the only Time Lord to cross dimensions and walk on 4 hooves. "Hahah, this is so cool! Heheheheh. . . Now what?" He asked himself. He was right, he had nothing to do. He was just orbiting Equestria, with nothing to do. Sure he saved a town that was almost killed by a group of Aliens, but then what. What to do? What to do? He thought. he was very limited on what to do. New dimension, new universe, new galaxy cluster, new galaxy, new cosmic area, new solar system, new star, and new world. I should just get to know this world then branch of from that! Go to a new solar system, then a new galaxy! He skipped over to the control panel and started pressing buttons. You would think he would know what he's doing, but he's not. "Hmmm, where should I go, decisions, decisions, decisions. Ah! How 'bout that city!" He exclaimed. He looked at the screen, it was Batimare, east of Ponyville. "Alright, set cell, and speed! Towards Adventure!" He cheered.                                                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ponyville 21th of August 2:42pm "So your' tellin' me that we all just fell 'sleep, but you?" Asked Applebloom. "Y-yup, why don't you believe me?!" Said Scootaloo. "I don't Scootaloo, it seems kinda fishy. I mean, above all ponies it was you who didn't fall asleep." Clarified Sweetie Belle. It's been at least 2 months since Scootaloo seen The Doctor. Things have been really difficult, mentally & physically. Everypony has been bombarding her with questions about what happen in July. All her cupcakes ran out, and it's been difficult trying to steal some since everypony has been following her. "Well what do you want to hear? 'Hey guys I made you all fall asleep for no reasons what so ever!' Is that what you wanna hear?" Demanded Scootaloo. "No, it just seems uh bit odd scoots." Said Applebloom. "Yeah, she's right." Said Sweetie Belle. "So what do you want?" "Nothing really, we just wanna know what happen." Said Applebloom. "Look: you all fell asleep, I went back home, then went back to Sugarcube Corner, and then everyone woke up! That's it." Said Scootaloo. "Maybe it was somepony casing a spell to making herself fall asleep but it backfired?" Questioned Sweetie Belle. "Hmm, maybe. . ." Said Applebloom. "Hey, maybe we'll get our Cutie Marks in mystery solving!" Cheered Scootaloo. "Yeah! Lets continue to figure this out!" Agreed Sweetie Belle. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Baltimare 5:27pm 2 months after Rytions August 21th *Vwooorp* *Vwoooooooorrp* *Vwwoooorp* *Ding* "Alright! Lets see what this city has to offer!" Said The Doctor. He open the TARDIS, only to be blasted by lights and smoke. "*cough* Uuggh! What the! Oh I'm on a roof." He confirmed. The TARDIS landed on a 4 story tall hotel. The smoke was coming from the chimney in front if him, he was lucky no pony saw him. He walked over the edge to see the city. It looked like the Baltimore from his dimension but in the 1800's. instead of cars there was 'pony' drawn carriages, the roads were made of cobblestone instead of dirt like in Ponyville, and most of the city was composed of bricks, cobblestone, wood, and concrete. "Wow, this is cool! I should take a vacation here!" He found a door leading down the hotel, the door was stuck. "Oh come on." The Doctor said. He pushed the door, but to his luck the door fell and The Doctor with it. "Ow, well that's one way to make an entrance!" He exclaimed. He continued down the stairs to the attic, there was boxes, crates, the ceiling was wooden, there was two windows on each side, and on one of the crates was a map. The Doctor unfolded the map, since he didn't know how to hold things. Baltimare was conveniently well sectioned out. On the north was business & real estate buildings, on the west was medium class homes, stores, and hotels, the east was composed of upper class homes, and hotels, and the south was mostly just stores, theaters, and parks. The hotel he was in was called the Ultic Monastical (Ul-tic Mó-nast-ic-al), he was in the west side of Baltimare. Hmm where should I go? Ah! The Bronze Theater! That's sounds fun! He open the trap door in the center of the attic, a ladder extended. The 3rd floor was quite nice, the hallway walls were Peachpuff, the floor was covered in a red rug with golden edges, the doors were white with golden letters, next to most of them were tables with a white vase with roses, there were a few candles, and in the center of the hallway were stairs leading down. Ooo, this place is fancy! I wonder if I can stay here! Oh, but what's the currency? Better asked someone The Doctor thought. To his convince, a butler pony with a Paleturquoise coat, Brown mane, and a butler suit was walking in his direction. "Hey you kid, what are you doin' here? 3rd floor rooms are only for grown ups boy!" The Butler explained. "What? I'm not a kid-oh! Yes, um sorry I got lost." The Doctor said. "Really? In a small hotel?" The Butler questioned. "Y-yes, um I forgot my room number and I thought it would be in the 3rd floor." "How could a teenager like you afford this place?" "I-I um, have rich parents!" "And where are they?" "In the Bronze Theater." "Then you should go after them, ponies will think you're snoppin'." "Yes, um you're right." The butler then descended down stairs leaving The Doctor alone. Alright, guess I'm not staying here. Also I can't just asked the ponies around here what's the currency, they'll start to notice I'm not from here. He went back to the attic, he decided to look for another location. Lets see, where to go, where to go. Aha! The Baltimare National Library! It was a mile north of where he was. The Doctor raced back into the TARDIS, he is going to need his equipment. He found both his screwdriver and psychic paper next to each other on the control panel. But there was one problem. "I don't have pockets or hands. Crud." The Doctor declared. He was right, he was going to need something to hold the paper and screwdriver. Unfortunately for him, he was a pony. Great, after a few days of being a pony and years of being disgusted of humans and my human body I now really miss hands. Well there's always my wardrobe, I wonder if I have anything that fits a pony? Well, better go check! He thought. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ponyville, Carousel Boutique 4:52pm "Welcome to Car-Oh, hello Sweetie Belle, Applebloom, and Scootaloo what brings you here?" Asked the white coated and purple maned pony. "Nothing really Rarity, we just wanted to know if you could make us investigator coats? we're trying to get our Cutie Marks in investigating!" Said Sweetie Belle. "Hmm, alright but I need to go to the bank first, I need to deposit some bits. If you like you can come with me." Said Rarity "I can't, Applejack needs mah help buckin' apples back home." Said Applebloom. "I don't really have anything to do, I guess I'll go." Said Scootaloo. "Me too." Said Sweetie Belle. "Well alright then, lets go girls!" Said Rarity. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Baltimare roof, TARDIS 5:56pm "No, no, no, whatisthis!, whatisthat, no, definetly not, I have this? No, why, no, what the hell, what the Kluster, no, hmmm." The Doctor was still looking for a suit that fit him after 12 minutes of saying the same thing. But finaly, he may have found something that fits is liking. It was a black suit, with a small hourglass, blue tie, golden buttons & edges, and 4 pockets: one on the front, two on the sides, and one inside his suit. "Hmm, not bad. Goes with my Cutie thing and has pockets! Better than nothing!" After putting the suit on and cursing under his breath, he went to the mirror in the center of the wardrobe room. The room was 2 stories tall, in the center was a large circular gap, in the middle was a column that held a mirror. Not bad Doctor, not bad! Hmm, He looked more closely into the mirror. I guess I do look slightly young, but that doesn't explain why I'm young! He thought. "I guess we'll see what happens." The Doctor said. The idea of him being a teenager bugged him, not because he was a kid but because he didn't know what will happen to his body. The Doctor doesn't like to be uninformed. He returned to the hotel, he walked down into the lobby. The lobby was small, no fancy chandelier, candles on the walls, the front dest was next to the stairs, and in the front was two windows with a double door between them. "May I help you?" Asked the pony up front. She was grey, blonde maned, green eyes, and a purple quill for a Cutie Mark. "Oh um, I was just leaving." Said The Doctor. "Are you checking out?" She asked. "Um, no I was just going to take a walk." "Oh well have a nice day young colt!" She said. The Doctor walked out the door, he need to check into another hotel. The city was amazing, the candles brighten everything and it didn't even cause any light pollution! The cariges were driving in different lanes unlike in Ponyville, and there were houses that looked similar to modern day houses in his dimension. The Bronze Theater was only a mile away, and the Baltimare National Library was half a mile on the same direction. He could go to the library first, learn the currency, make the money back at the TARDIS, and go to the theater. Ooo, I love a good mini-adventure! The Doctor thought. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ponyville, Ponyville Bank 6:24pm *Tick* *Tock* *Tick* *Tock* *Tick* *Tock* *Tick* *Tock* "UUUUGH! This is taking forever! Rarity, when are we gonna reach the desk?!" Asked Scootaloo. "Ugh, I honestly don't know dear. My hooves and legs are really getting tired of standing!" Complained Rarity. "Isn't it weird that for some reason a lot of ponies decided to go to the bank at this day?" Said Sweetie Belle. "I know, geez this place is packed!" Said Scootaloo. "Maybe you'll get your Cutie Marks in patience?" Joked Rarity. All of them chuckled, some ponies around them did the same. The Ponyville Bank wasn't everyponies favorite place, heck even the elders couldn't even stand it! Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, and Rarity have been waiting for about an hour, the line was also not getting any shorter. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle were talking about ways to get their Cutie Marks to pass the time. Rarity just looked at the mirror across the room to see if the boredom getting to her eyes. "We could always try music." Suggested Sweetie Belle. "Or sports?" Also suggested Scootaloo. "Meh, how about dancing?" "What? No! . . . Oh what about hang gliding?" "I think we tried that already." "Engineering?" "Too hard." "Medicine?" "Tried that." "Writing?" "No." "Farming?" "Tried that." "Rug making?" "Yup." "Cobblers?" "We don't wear shoes." "Well I'm out of ideas!" "Yeah, plus at least the line got shorter!" Sweetie Belle was right, they were halfway to the desk. It was 6:32 pm, Scootaloo was really tired. Scootaloo then saw something strange: there was one pony in the waiting chairs. Now she knew nothing was wrong about that, but what was strange is that he was there since they got there. He had a yellow coat, a saggy black mane, brown eyes, and had a sword cutting through bits Cutie Mark. Scootaloo then looked around the bank, there were also two ponies acting weird. One was sitting up against the wall, she was light blue, purple mane, yellow eyes, and a open safe for a Cuite Mark. The other one was a little short, orange, black and blue striped mane, red eyes, and a broken bit for a Cutie Mark, he was leaning on the exit doors. Thats weird, who comes into a bank for no reason? Scootaloo thought. They continued to walk around the bank, they were mainly near flower pots. That when it hit Scootaloo. They're here to rob the bank! "ALRIGHT EVERYPONY ON THE GROUND NOW!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Baltimare, Baltimare National Library 6:19pm "May I help you?" Asked the Librarian. "Why yes, I'm doing a study in the history of the currency of um-Equestria!" "Oh, the history books should be on 'Ancient Equestria'." She pointed to the left. "Thank you very much!" The Doctor replied. The Baltimare National Library was quite big, there was even a chandelier in the center of the main room! It was round, it was like the TARDIS's wardrobe, but with books and the walls were made of silky wood. The front desk was in the center of the main room, there were hallways leading to other rooms to the left and right. There was only 2 floors, you could see it from the main room. And the entrance was mostly glass but with a wooden door. The Doctor turned a left and made way to the history section. There were literally bookshelves on every wall, and the floor was a nice cool blue rug with golden edges. There were young ponies sitting on the tables in the corners of the room, studying and reading history, physics, magic, and equestrian. In the front room were rows of bookshelves that reach the high ceiling all A-Z, and in the center was a small fountain! Wow this is very nice! He walked to the A-Z bookshelves, he first started in "C". He was having trouble reading the words, but soon he realize that Equestrian was literally the exact same writing as the Cormpers in his universe. After that, he knew how to read Equestrian! "Let's see, 'Complicating spells for Students 9'? 'The Tragedy of Corce & Lily'? 'Casting the Wind by George K. Sarth'? Ugh! It's not here!" He said under his breath. He looked through the whole "C" row but he found nothing. He then went to the "A" row and decided to just go through them all. He reached the "E" row and was about to give up. "Enchantments and Spells, Extreme Casting, Energy Binding . . . Equestria's Currency and History? Really?! It was under 'E'!!! IT WAS UNDE-" "SSSHHH!" "sorry" The Doctor whispered. He reached for the book and placed it on his back. To his surprise; it balance well! He found an empty table and placed the book in front of him. He sat down but with the idea that there was a chair. Ironically, there were no chairs, thus causing him to slam his bottom onto the floor! "Ow. . ." The Doctor said in a annoyed tone. He opened the book, it had a that new book smell. The book itself was green with yellow edges (Ha! See what I did there? No golden edges!), and had about 250 pages. He first went to the Table of Contents: Table Of Contents 1.) Currency Beginning pg.1-56 2.)Currency Usage pg.57-92 3.)Who created Currency pg.93-113 4.)New Currency pg.114-145 5.)Celestia's Influence pg.146-189 6.)Troubles in Currency pg.190-225 7.)Corrupted Currency pg.226-241 8.)Present Currency pg.242-267 9.)Why Gold Currency pg.268-273 Index pg.274-280 Ah here we go; Present Currency! As most of you have read the previous chapter (if not then you're a lousy excuse for a living organism) ,Chancellor Orma used the "Puppet Spell" to corrupt the weak minded. He could have succeeded if he didn't leave 5 norqs with Celestia who was with her depressed friend Typla Windheart (1004-1089). Celestia sent Chancellor Orma to his execution, she then order all norqs to be destroyed. With no currency, Equestria was in age of disaster known as the "Beggar Age". Celestia and, Enchantress Dawn Moonsoil(1010-1097), came up with a new currency know as: Bits. It started off with one bit, then went of from this list: 1Bit coin 5bit coin 10bit coin 15bit coin 20bit coin 30bit coin 50bit coin 75bit coin 100bit coin And then the 200bit coin. Alright! Got it. Now I just need one bit, and I'll be good to go! He then stopped a blue, white maned unicorn, with a shooting star Cutie Mark, and golden eyes (Ha!). She was the same size as The Doctor. "'Cuse me, can I borrow a 'bit'?" The Doctor asked. "Hm? Oh-um, sure." She said, she reach for her bag and pulled out a bit on the table. "Thank you very much!" He said. "No problem, bro!" She said back, and walked away. And that, is how you become a millionaire! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ponyville, Ponyville Bank 6:29pm You know what sucks about ropes? They leave marks on your wrist. And that's what Scootaloo was thinking. The crooks were tying everypony up, Rarity and Sweetie Belle were tied up next to her. They were taken out ropes and swords from under the flower pots, they also tied up the guards. Scootaloo's mind was racing with possibilities of what might happen to her and everypony else. Her heart was racing, and her head was sweating, she didn't know what to do! Scootaloo began looking around for anything that might help her, she had to protect Sweetie Belle & Rarity! One of the guard's sword was on the floor next to Scootaloo, she wasted no time to cut the rope. "Shara, are the authorities coming?" Asked the orange pony. "No yet." Grinned the light blue pony named Shara. "Ricky! Hurry up and get the map!" Said the orange pony. "Hold up, there's so many bits covering it!" Said the yellow pony name Ricky. "Shara, talk to me!" "There here! And right on time!" Shara grinned. "Ready for phase 2 Rickay!" "Ha! Phase 2 William!" Said Ricky. The orange pony named "William" was walking around the bank, until he stopped where Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Rarity were. "Where are you three going?" Asked Shara who then revealed her wings. Whoa she's fast! Thought Scootaloo. "Hey Shara, there foals here! Guess it's our lucky day!" Said William. "Hehe, this makes the plan much more smoother!" Said Shara. "Got the map! What hostages are we taking?" "The unicorn, and foals!" "Nice! This makes thing much more easier!" Said Ricky. Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Rarity were then tied once again, but with bags over there heads. The last thing Scootaloo knew was that they were put into a carriage, going full speed away from Ponyville. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Batimare, Griffon Street 6:51pm Converting Sodium into Golden isn't a quick process, and The Doctor wasn't a patient man/pony. The A.S.A.F (Atom Smashing and Fusion) Device was old though. It wasn't what it was 249 years ago. The Bronze Theater was only a quarter mile away, The Doctor was captivated by the night sky. As he was nearing the Theater something caught his eye. A black old carriage was speeding towards the city, they seemed to be in a hurry. The two ponies pulling were both earth ponies, one was orange with a black and blue striped mane, the yellow one had saggy black mane and tail. There was another pony, but riding on top. She was a pegasus, she was light blue with a purple mane that was short. They were speeding onto the streets, almost crashing into ponies. They passed The Doctor and then disappear around the corner. The Doctor knew something was up, and he was gonna find out. Guess the movies will have wait. He walked back to the Ultic Monastical Hotel, the TARDIS was still on the roof. He unlocked the door and entered, the TARDIS still was in bad shape. "Alright let's see where these guys are headed." The Doctor said. The TARDIS took off, he could see the Carriage still on the run on the monitor. The Carriage stopped near the end of the west side of Baltimare. It stopped near a old warehouse and field, they started unloading crates. The last package shocked him, they're ponies tied up, one was white with curled up left purple mare, the other was a foal, white coat, pink and light purple mane curled up. The last pony that was dragged out really gave The Doctor a shock, it was also a foal. She was copper with a purple tomboy mane, and was a Pegasus. It was Scootaloo, and she was in trouble. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Baltimare, Abandoned Warehouse 7:08pm "Hey kid, stop squirming!" Said Ricky. They were being dragged downstairs, Scootaloo couldn't tell where they were. They were now being dragged in a hallway, she could hear more crooks! She heard a door open. Scootaloo was then tied to a chair, the bag was removed from her head. The room was small, there was one candle in the center, a desk in the front, a bookshelf on the left, whiskey table on the right, and the floor, ceiling, and walls were concrete. "Well hello there young filly!" Said a peach coat, red mane, red eyed, stallion with a scar on his lip, and a Pyramid with a sword through it Cutie Mark. "Who are you! Where am I? What do you want! Where's Sweetie Belle and Rar-!" "My my child, so many question but not enough time. I'll just start with the basics; I am Robbert Mightking, most wanted crime boss in all of Equestria!" He said. "W-what do you want?!" Demanded Scootaloo. "Oh just your cooperation my dear! See, I don't like to have my hostages die before they don't know anything. It's so rude!" I think killing us is rude enough Scootaloo thought. "Now I won't tell you everything my dear, I just need you to know that you're going to be very helpful. Heheheh." Robbert chuckled. "Helpful? How?" Asked Scootaloo. "You're going to be a distraction my dear! A very good one! Lock her up boys!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Baltimare, Abandoned Warehouse fields 7:14pm "I don't know anything! I swear!" Said Ricky. "You were one of the ponies driving the carriage. Now again: Where are the hostages!" Yelled The Doctor. He smacked the crook across the face, he was badly bruised. "In the storage room! That's where we keep 'em!" He cried. "Thank you. Now this is gonna sting." He pulled out his screwdriver. "W-whata-ahuuh . . ." Ricky was unconscious. Cant let you warn anybody else Ricky The Doctor thought. The Warehouse entrance wasn't heavily guarded. The Doctor thought it might be to cause less suspicion. He enter, the warehouse itself was big, there where crates and boxes everywhere. They're was a crook in front of the storage room in the back. He was brown with yellow eyes and blue mane. The Doctor knew exactly what to do. "Pss! Hey man, shifts over mah turn." Said The Doctor in a 1940's gang accent. "W-what? Oh sure, didn't know my shift ended already." The crook said. "No problem man, now shoo!" The Doctor said. The guard pony left, the keys were on the crate next to the door. too easy! This just like the time I stole candy from a baby! . . . That sounded wrong The Doctor thought. He grabbed the keys with his mouth, and began inserting it to the lock. nope, wrong key. Wait! How am I suppose to switch keys! I don't have thumbs! He realized. "Ah, scr'w thishh!" He said with his mouth still on the key. He spit out the key and pulled out his Sonic Screwdriver with his wrist and began unlocking the door. The door opened, Scootaloo was inside tied up. "Dffcer!?" Scootaloo tried to say. "Don't worry Scootaloo! I'll get you out! Ironic isn't it!" The Doctor said. He began untying Scootaloo, there was a knife inside the storage room. He cut the rope and began with the cloth around Scootaloo's mouth. "Thanks, how'd you get here Doc!?" Asked Scootaloo. "Oh I was just seeing where I can take a vacation until I saw the carriage you're put in, and so I came here!" He said. "Also where's the other ponies here, I saw two more with you?" He asked. "I-I don't know! Wait. There! Over there!" Pointed Scootaloo. There were 4 ponies throwing Rarity and Sweetie Belle into another carriage. Rarity kept using her magic to hit one of the crooks. "GET AWAY FROM ME YOU BRUTE! Hey what are you-" "Quit your naggin' and fall asleep!" The black, green maned, blue eyed unicorn said. He pressed his horn against hers, Rarity was knocked out. "Hey you! Put her down!" Yelled The Doctor. The Black pony grinned. "Gladly!" He threw her into the carriage. The black pony shot a ball of magic at The Doctor, he got him in the chest. "See ya later sucker!" He said. "Move boys! This ain't gonna move itself!" They took off, leaving The Doctor on the ground moaning. "Doc! You alright!?" Asked Scootaloo. "I-I'm f-fine! We j-just n-need to get back t-to the TARDIS!" He said. "How is a blue box gonna help us catch them?" Asked Scootaloo. "Oh you'll s-see, heheh." Chuckled The Doctor. They raced back outside, the TARDIS was waiting for them. Boy I really need to adjust to things around here! The Doctor thought. //-------------------------------------------------------// Secrets of Baltimare //-------------------------------------------------------// Secrets of Baltimare The TARDIS was flying upwards away from the Warehouse. The Doctor wasted no time in finding the speeding carriage. They were heading to the center of the city, City Hall. The TARDIS ascended high enough so that no pony could see them. The Doctor then flipped 2 switches and pressed a blue button. The TARDIS blasted off, she was gaining on the carriage. "Whoa this thing goes fast!" Exclaimed Scootaloo. "It's not a 'Thing' it's a she, in case you forgot." The Doctor said. "Whatever, hey how do you know where you're going?" Asked Scootaloo. "Monitor." He said. "So this isn't a underground Factory." Confirmed Scootaloo. "Um, yeah I guess the whole TARDIS flying and rescuing your friends thing kinda blew it off." "Who are you?" Scootaloo asked. "I told you! I'm The Doctor!" "No WHAT are you!?" She asked again. ". . . It's complicated, look they're stopping!" The Doctor said. The carriage was slowing down to City Hall, there were so many ponies outside. The carriage was parking behind City Hall, City Hall itself looked like The White House but with a golden roof. "We're gonna have to land somewhere where nobody can see us." The Doctor said. "'Nobody' you mean 'Nopony'?" Asked Scootaloo. "Yeah sure whatever, help me look!" City Hall was surrounded by houses, shops, buildings, and ponies. There was a small park, nopony was there, it was a perfect spot to land! "Hey! What about the park?" Asked Scootaloo. "Good, no one will be able to see us!" "No pony-" "Okay! I get it!" The TARDIS was slowly descending, the leaves and twigs around it blew away. Once the TARDIS landed both Scootaloo and The Doctor ran out. The park was dark, only few candles lit the place. It was flat and with one road that went through it. There was a statue in the center, it was a female pony with a hammer on her mouth and a map for a Cutie Mark. "Alright come on, they might be going inside-" "No, they said that they'll need Rarity and Sweetie Belle and me for a distraction, but for what?" "A distraction. They might be implying using them to distract the public eye! Or as tools, we can't really be sure." Said The Doctor. "But where are they gonna go?" Asked Scootaloo. "Maybe inside. Lets go!" They raced through the streets of Baltimare, bumping into ponies. Scootaloo's heart raced with fear of what will happen to Sweetie Belle & Rarity. The Doctor didn't want any blood spilled on his hooves, he didn't want that to happen again. They reach City Hall, there was about 5 ponies getting off. Both The Doctor and Scootaloo hid behind the wall surrounding the place. The crooks lifted Sweetie Belle & Rarity into City Hall, two crooks stood guard outside. "Alright, how do we take down those guys?" Asked Scootaloo. "Hmmm, ah! The carriage doors! You'll distract them, I'll sneak inside the carriage, you'll get them near the doors, and Wham!" "But what about the other, Doc?" Asked Scootaloo. "Still working out a plan Scoots, he won't fall the same trick unless you find a way to have them at both sides of the carriage . . ." He said. "Don't worry Doc, I know what to do!" She said. She jogged into the center of the 'parking lot' and sat down. The Doctor ran up to the carriage, he opened the door and went inside. "Hey! Losers! Over here!" Yelled Scootaloo. "Hey, isn' tha' the filly teh boss wan'ed us to catch?" The crook on the right asked. "Yeah, you go right, I go left." The second one said. They began to walk down the stairs, Scootaloo also began to walk backwards. The crooks (both in night suits by the way) were getting closer to Scootaloo, she quickly ran behind the carriage. "Go right, she might make us go in a circle." The crook on the left said. They were gaining, Scootaloo was waiting for the doors to open. She jump on top of the carriage right when the crooks almost grab her. One cursed under his breath, they both ran back to grab her. Right when they turned back and ran, they were both hit by two doors and both fell backwards. "Well that was easy! You okay Scootaloo?" Asked The Doctor. "Yup! I don't think they'll be getting up anytime soon!" She cheered. "Alright come on, those two are still in trouble!" He said. They raced up the stairs and opened the doors. City Hall was mostly just hallways. The rug was blue with purple edges, there were tables between doors, columns on each corner, and paints of all the mayors of Baltimare. The Doctor and Scootaloo began opening doors. "Stay quiet, we don't want them to know we're here!" The Doctor whispered. They kept opening doors but with no luck. Most of them were offices, and lounges. The Doctor opened a door near the end of the hallway and heard voices. "You sure this will work?" Asked a female voice. "Miss Mayor my dear, I wouldn't have come her if I wasn't." Said a calm male voice. "You better hurry, Celestia will know what's been going on soon enough!" She said. "Celestia's got her head up'in the clouds, but agreed." He said. "Get your men on top of the roof Robbert, and have them search this place just in case." "Hey, I'm the one who makes the shots, remember who has the knife on their throat." He said darkly. "Y-yes, I-I-I'm sorry." "Good! Guys, please dispose of any bastards who wish to Overhear our plans." A sword sliced through the door, the sword almost got The Doctor's muzzle. The Doctor stepped back, the sword was pulled back and the door was knocked down. 3 ponies came out, one was red with yellow and khaki swirled mane, he had a tomboy haircut, his eyes were brown, his Cutie Mark was a shield with a bit in the center. The middle pony was purple with a orange mane, his eyes were green, he was a unicorn, and his Cutie Mark was a sparkling comet. The last one was grey with a brown mane, blue eyes, a flaming rod for a Cutie Mark, and he was holding a sword in his mouth. "Uh, hello gents! I was just, um, taking a stroll," Scootaloo peeked her head out the door to see what was all the commotion. The Doctor was backing away from a red and grey pony and a purple unicorn, the grey one had a sword. Oh no what do I do!? Thought Scootaloo. She pulled her head back into the room, she needed something to help The Doctor with! The room had two couches in the center and a table, 2 walls were occupied by bookshelves, one had a long mirror, and two painting with a door between them on the last wall. She looked around, there was a bottle of alcohol on the table. She grab the bottle (with her mouth) and went out the door. "Doaactoar, ca'ch!" Scootaloo threw the bottle at The Doctor as best she could. The Doctor quickly caught the bottle (mouth) and threw it to the goons. The purple unicorn casted a shield spell, the bottle broke, the glass and alcohol spilled on the floor. The Doctor jumped for the lantern next to him and smacked it to the mess. The alcohol ignited, the crooks were trapped. The unicorn bended the flames and made a exit. The crooks were now in front of the flames. "Well that could have gone better." The Doctor said. The sword pony made the first move, he jabbed at The Doctor. The Doctor was backing away, the sword pony was slashing. The Doctor was dodging, but the sword pony was still going at him. The purple unicorn's horn burst into a blue glow, he was shooting The Doctor with energy blast. The Doctor kept dodging but wasn't gonna keep this up. Scootaloo ran back into the hallway, dragging a sword with her mouth. "Her'!" She tried to say. She tossed the sword at The Doctor, he grab the sword just as the sword pony slashed horizontally. The Doctor never tried swinging a sword with his mouth, it felt just fine, almost like a hand. He blocked the sword pony's attack, he was getting the hang of this. The unicorn blasted another ball of mana at The Doctor. The Doctor had a crazy idea, he swinged his sword vertically at the mana. The energy blast split and dissipated as it was cut. The Doctor continued to block each attack that came at him. "You little punk! Stand still!" Yelled the purple unicorn. The grey swords pony caught The Doctor distracted by the insult, he lashed horizontally and cut The Doctor in his left cheek & chest. The Doctor yelped in pain, the swords pony wasn't letting up! The mana blast kept coming, and the swords pony kept attacking! The Doctor slashed at the white table next to him and kick it to the swords pony. The swords pony tried to step aside, but the table hit him on his right leg and was kneeling down. The swords pony still lashed at The Doctor, but couldn't jab him. Another energy blast came, The Doctor sliced it diagonally. The swords pony swung his sword vertically, and a mana ball came at The Doctor. He stepped aside dodging the sword, and ducked down avoiding the mana ball. "Damn this kid is good, lets seem him dodge this" The red pony stood on his hind legs, he lifted a bow modified to be used by a pony. He shot an arrow, The Doctor quickly moved his head left, a mana ball came at him. He was struck in the chest, his vision became blurry, and his chest was freezing cold! Scootaloo watched, she didn't know what to do! She looked around the room, nothing. She open the door to the fight, and ran to the other door across. Inside the room was an office, a desk on the right, a bookshelf in the front, table with spoons & knifes, and two maps of Equestria and Baltimare next to the door. She went over to the table, she grabbed the butter knife. The Doctor was tired, hurt, dizy, and stumbling backwards. The arrows, mana balls, and sword kept coming, he couldn't keep up. The archer pony shot, the arrow hit The Doctor in his shoulder. He yelled in agony, and then a mana blast came at him. It was a bullseye, he was knocked down on his back. The swords pony leaped up, sword coming straight at The Doctor's heart. He swung left, causing the sword to embed itself on the floor next to him. He bucked the swords pony in the face, The Doctor leaped backup. Scootaloo burst out the door with a butter knife in her mouth. She turned 90 degrees, then spin 180 degrees, letting go of the knife. It embedded itself in the archer pony's shoulder. He fell backwards, The Doctor blocked another mana ball. "Doc! Used that sword to deflect his magic!" Scootaloo cried. The Doctor wasted no time following her advice, the swords pony strike diagonally. The Doctor blocked, the purple unicorn shot more mana. The Doctor turned his sword sideways and hit the mana ball like a baseball. The swords pony wasn't prepard, the energy blast hit him in the face, sending him flying to his unicorn friendly. "Argh, I'm gettin' too old for this!" Moaned The Doctor. The unicorn got up, his horn glowed blue with sparks of electricity. The Doctor knew what was coming, he sliced another table's chair. The Doctor kicked the table at the unicorn right on time, lightning incinerated the table, The Doctor charged at the purple unicorn. The unicorn tried to punch him but he was too quick, The Doctor sliced the 1/4 of the unicorn's horn, he yelled in pain. The Doctor then bucked his face, sending him crashing into one of the tables and knocking him out. "How'd you learn to do that!?" Asked Scootaloo. "When you're as old as me you begin to learn things to insure the safety of others." The Doctor said. *clop* *clop, *clop*. "Well done boy! It would have been a pleasure to have you in my organization but sadly your action only lead to your downfall as an equine." Said Robbert as he walked out the door. "Please, you don't know how many times I heard that before and it was from more dangerous creatures that you wouldn't believe existed!" The Doctor taunted. "Hmm, it doesn't really matter in this situation boy, you antics of your actions have cause you to be a enemy of the Blood Ponies. What's your name kid?" "Me? Hehe, I'm The Doctor." The Doctor said. "Doctor? That's it?" "Yea', now lets dance baby!" "Hmm, I'm 'fraid not 'Doctor', my plans do not include engaging with some kid and his sibling. Adios Doctor!" And just like that he was gone, nothing but a mist of red dust. "You okay doc? You got an arrow in your shoulder." Said Scootaloo. "Right." The Doctor yanked out the arrow, he held his tongue. He pulled out his Sonic Screwdriver and began mending his shoulder. "It can do that?" Asked Scootaloo. "Yeah, it can do almost anything!" He was done mending his shoulder. "Now, the mayor." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I-I s-swear! I-I don't k-know a-a-any-" "Cut the crap Mayor, I heard you and Robbert agreeing. I'm not gonna have someo-pony's blood on my Han-hooves, I've dealt with your type I know how to break you. Now again, Where. Are. The. Hostages!" Yelled The Doctor. "I. I. I. I-" "They're gonna used them as a distraction aren't they?" ". . ." "I'll take that as a; yes. Now, why are you working for a gang?" Asked The Doctor. "T-they threaten Batimare, they threaten to kill everypony in the city. . ." The Mayor said, she was a white, peach maned, purple eyed, Pegasus with a pen and quill Cutie Mark. "So why didn't you call for help from the princess?" Asked Scootaloo. "T-they monitor the mail, deliveries, everything. Nopony can get out!" "They have the power to starve you all . . ." The Doctor said quietly. "I-I-I-I. Don't. Know. What. To. Do . . ." The Mayor said. " . . . I'll help you." The Doctor said. "What?" Said Scootaloo. "What?" Said the Mayor. "I said I'll help you, I've dealt with gangs before." "Uh Doc, this is more of a army than just a few dozen ponies! You barely survived three ponies!" Reminded Scootaloo. "The filly's right uh-," "Doctor, just The Doctor." He said. "Doctor, this is more of an army than a gang! Most of the police force were taken down, the rest work for the Blood Ponies." "I handled an army before, this one's unorganized and weak, they may have power over you but that's just a city. Also do you know where are the hostages?" "Gone, while you're fighting his men the hostages were taken to the roof where Pegasi have taken them." "Doc, can't we just go to the TARDIS and catch them?" Asked Scootaloo. "No by now we're too late, unless they're near town. Mayor, is there a place that can attract a large group of ponies?" Asked The Doctor. "Um, yes actually! The Ultic Monastical Hotel, it's on Griffin Street. You can get a good audience on the roof, it's known for that. The butler is part of the gang, he's a spy." The Mayor said. "I was just there, alright then! Do you know anything else?" Asked The Doctor. "Um, not really. I overheard one of meetings, something about Horseshoe Bay, I think." "Horseshoe Bay, Horseshoe Bay, Horseshoe Bay, come on Doctor! Distraction. Monastical. Bay. . . OF COURSE!" Exclaimed The Doctor. "What?" Asked Scootaloo. "They're going to use Sweetie Belle & Rarity as a distraction on the roof the Monastical! It will attract ponies and then they're gonna go to Horseshoe Bay!" "Of course! There are Royal Battle ships patrolling the Bay! The troops with come to the rescue and the Blood's will escape!" Said the Mayor. "But why are they leaving?" Asked The Doctor. "I think I know!" Said Scootaloo. "Really?" Asked The Doctor. "Yeah, when they captured us they were robbing a bank. But they left the bits, the crooks who rob it said something about a map!" Said Scootaloo cheerfully. "Mayor, do you know anything about the-," "-Ponyville Bank." Interrupted Scootaloo. "Right, and Baltimare?" Asked The Doctor. "Hmmm, Ponyville. Baltimare . . . Aha! The Information Maps!" She exclaimed. "Okay, what do they do?" Asked Scootaloo. "The Royal Ships give a map of events that have happen at the bay! They send it to the princess, if they miss one the princess-," "-will send a squad or more to check the bay-," "-Leaving Canterlot weak! Which means-," "-They're trying to take the capital!" Finished Scootaloo. "Yes! Now that we have all the pieces we can think of a way to stop them!" "But won't the Royal Guard stop them?" Asked the Mayor. "Not if they attack from the inside as tourist, Mayor." The Doctor said. "They'll threaten Canterlot with starvation!" Said Scootaloo. "Not if we have anything to say about!" Said The Doctor. "Mayor, I suggest you stay here, try your best to stop them. We'll take care of everything else." "Thank you for everything, I wish I can repay you." "You can, by taking care of your city Mayor." Said The Doctor. They raced back to the hallway, heading for the TARDIS. "You know, that was pretty cool what you did!" Said Scootaloo. "What?" Asked The Doctor. "Fight 3 ponies at once, I never seen anypony do that!" "Heh, thanks scoots!" "No prob'! By the way, when are you gonna start pressing buttons, they aren't going rescue themselves!" Said Scootaloo. "Oh, right!" The TARDIS lifted off, speeding towards the Ultic Monastical Hotel. The Baltimare was passing under them, almost like a blurred. "You know, this is the second time you saved my butt Doc." Said Scootaloo. "I'm starting to get the feeling that this will be a regular thing." "Hehehe, maybe Scootaloo! Only Time will tell!" The Doctor said. The TARDIS was above the Ultic Monastical Hotel, on the roof was Sweetie Belle & Rarity with a knife on their throats. The black, green maned, blue eyed unicorn from the Warehouse was holding Rarity, the purple unicorn from hallway fight was holding on Sweetie Belle. They both had knifes in their mouths pointed at the hostage's throats. "LET ME GO!" Yelled Sweetie Belle. "Fat change filly," Said the black unicorn. "You're too go to give up in a plan like this!" The TARDIS was a few dozen feet above the Hotel, the crooks began shouting. "The first part of their plan is starting, we need somewhere to land!" Said The Doctor. "Who cares!? Come on let's land this thing!" Said Scootaloo "WHAT NO!" Yelled The Doctor. Scootaloo leaped to the control panel and started messing with the controls. She pulled a grey lever down, pulled down the monitor, and then started pressing buttons. The monitor targeted the roof, the view then became closer. *boom* *boom* The TARDIS landed. "H-h-h-how did you that?!" Asked The Doctor. "Do what?" Asked Scootaloo. "How did you land the TARDIS? Y-y-yo-" "-All I did was just realase the breaks, pulled down the monitorthing, set the landing point stuff, and speed in miles per hours; it was at 10 by the way." Said Scootaloo. "B-b-b-but!" "Are we gonna save them or play 21 questions?" Asked Scootaloo. The TARDIS doors opened, the crooks turned around, the black goon's eyes widen. "Back for more eh'? You should've stay down back at the Warehouse, runt!" He said. His horn glowed green, a force field surround Sweetie Belle and she was lifted up in the air. The purple unicorn did the same, their horns pointed at The Doctor and Scootaloo. The Doctor quickly grab his Sonic Screwdriver with his wrist. The goons horns glowed green and purple, they emitted multiple waves of magic. The screwdriver came to life with a blue glow, the waves of magic were stop by a blue spray of sonic waves. The Doctor slid an inch backwards, the waves of magic were pushing him backwards. The Doctor push back, but it was like pushing against a brick wall. "Scootaloo! Help me push them back!" Ordered The Doctor. Scootaloo quickly started pushing against The Doctor, but it wasn't enough. Their hind hooves were touching the rim of the edge of the hotel, The Doctor was running out of options. "Scootaloo, split and free your friends! I got these two!" The Doctor told Scootaloo. "But how? They're 2 of them, and one of you!" "An even match scoots! Beside, I already taken down 3 haven't I?" Scootaloo nodded, she was ready to scatter. "NOW!" The Doctor and Scootaloo split, the waves of magic left the hotel. Scootaloo ran left, she was heading towards Sweetie Belle. The Doctor ran right, a bolt of magic came straight at him. He barreled rolled, the bolt of purple magic exploded behind The Doctor in an electrifying way. The Doctor pointed his screwdriver at the purple unicorn's knife, the knife came in front of The Doctor. He pick it up right when the purple unicorn fired a purple laser from his horn, The Doctor lifted the knife with his mouth. The purple laser was cut in half and formed a "V" around The Doctor, The Doctor was being pushed back. The unicorn stopped, he was sweating from the lost of energy from his body. "Aaahh! Unicorns can get tried after over usage of their energy! This is nice." Said The Doctor. The Doctor began running at the unicorn, the purple unicorn squinted his eyes and fired a ball of purple mana at him. The Doctor turn the knife and swing it at the energy blast, it returned back to the purple unicorn knocking him out. The Doctor quickly ran towards Scootaloo only to see her next to Rarity, and the black pony on the ground moaning. "Uh, Scootaloo how did you-" "Oh, I ran under him, punched him in the gut, and buck him in the groin! Oh and freed Sweetie Belle, but Rarity's still asleep." She said. "Uh, mister, who are you?" Asked Sweetie Belle who was next to Scootaloo. "I'm The Doctor!" "Doctor what?" Asked Sweetie Belle. "Well that's new, most people say 'Doctor Who'." Said The Doctor. "What are people?" Asked Sweetie Belle. "Nevermind that dear, I'm just The Doctor, we need to find a way to wake her up, and I really need a cactus!" "Uh Doc, there's more ponies going in the Hotel! We need to leave, now!" Said Scootaloo "Right, I'll pick her-UP! WHOA, s-she's h-heavy!" The Doctor said. Rarity was on her back, her hooves were touching the floor. Two crooks appeared at the door entrance to the attic. "Hey, get bac-WHOA! *CRASH*" the yellow goon tripped over the door that was broken by The Doctor earlier, this gave them time to reach the TARDIS. The goon on the floor slowed the rest down, there was at least 3 dozen goons heading up stairs. The TARDIS doors opened, the 4 ponies ran inside. The TARDIS doors closed just before more ponies entered, all that entered was banging from the doors. "Won't they break down the doors?" Asked Scootaloo. "Nooo! Those doors, and the TARDIS, are almost indestructible! Heck, you can put the TARDIS in a star and it still won't be destroyed! Unless it stays there for about 1 minute 45.29 seconds." Answered The Doctor. "Thanks for saving us Doctor, Rarity and me are thankful, though she will be when she wakes up." Said Sweetie Belle. "Now what, Doc?" Asked Scootaloo. "We head for Horseshoe Bay," The Doctor said as he was pressing buttons that were and weren't useful. "We have to warn the Royal Ships of what they're doing, the map I seen of Baltimare shows a river leading all the way to Canterlot, the Blood Ponies might be using that." The Doctor said. "So all we have to do is convince them about the Blood Ponies?" Asked Scootaloo. "Yes, anymore questions?" "Oh, um-what are people?" Asked Sweetie Belle. "Very ugly monkey things, they stand on two legs, have hair on their heads, and are constantly fighting with each other. Now, Towards Adventure!" The TARDIS heading straight for the bay, the city disappeared once they reach the water. The moon was shining brightly, the stars seem to follow the TARDIS as it flew. The TARDIS passed a dozen red ships, only to be guessed as the Blood Ponies. 2 miles up a head were 3 dozen mediumorchid and yellow ships. The TARDIS landed smoothly on the quarterdeck, guard ponies backed away and pointed their spears as the TARDIS doors opened. "HALT, this is a Royal Battle Ship, unarthorized personnel will be imprisoned! State your business!"   Said a guard pony. "Oh um, yes. I'm The Doctor, I'm here on official Canterlot business." The Doctor reached into his pocket and pulled out his Phychic Paper." I've been investigating the gang; Blood Ponies, they've been threading Balitmare with starvation. They plan on attacking the Royal Ships and head for Canterlot, they also plan on using starvation on Canterlot." The Royal Guard looked at Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle. "What's with the fillies?" He asked. "Oh, they were planned on being used as a distraction. You ponies will take notice, go to their location, leaving your fleet weak, and they strike. Anymore questions?" Asked The Doctor. Another Guard pony spoke up. "How do we know you're tellin' the truth?" He asked. "Well just look there." The Doctor pointed straight to his right. In the distance were the Blood Ponies ships. They're almost impossible to see at night. "ALL PONIES, PREPARE YOUR BATTLE STATIONS, WE'RE BEING ATTACK! SHOW NO MERCY!" Ponies were running all over the ships, cannons were being prepared. "Oh, and can you help us with another hostage? She was put under a sleeping spell of some sort." The Doctor said to the unicorn captain. "Of course." The Doctor brought Rarity over, hooves still dragging along the floor. He set her down gently, the Captain's horn began to glow orange. He pressed his horn against Rarity's (that sounded wrong!). He stopped, Rarity began to mumble. "AHH! SWEETIE BELLE! Huh, where am I?" Rarity woke up smacking The Doctor across the cheek. "Ow! That hurt!" "Rarity! You're awake! This pony saved us and Scootaloo!" Said Sweetie Belle. "You mean the young stallion?" Asked Rarity "Oi! I'm not a kid you know! But yes, I saved both of you." Said The Doctor. "How? You're just a teenager! No less than 16!" "Again, I'm not a teenager, though more changed into one. I'm The Doctor!" The Doctor raised his hoof. "Doctor Who?" Asked Rarity. "Just, The Doctor!" He said with a grin. "We should get going, we're about to be in the middle of a battle!" They all went back inside the TARDIS, only to see red ships being heavily fired. On one of the docks was a peach coated, red maned, red eyed pony with a scar on his lip. He was smiling as he was seeing his men being killed from the docks. "Well played Doctor . . . You still have so much learn though." Robbert Kingsmight said. He was holding a crystal ball, inside was the TARDIS, she was on fire. "You may have uncovered one secret of Baltimare, but there are still more. Much . . . More." He said. He began walking back to the city, he was smiling. Not because his plan worked, but what he knew what will happen in the future. He was felt just like a filly when he killed both his parents and siblings. He hasn't felt this way in years. _______________________ Ponyville, Carousel Boutique 8:28am, August 22th *Vwoooorp* *Vwoooooooorrrp* *Ding* "Alright! Here we are! Ponyville! See I told you I knew how to drive the TARDIS!" The Doctor said to Scootaloo. The TARDIS appear next to the Carousel Boutique, everypony were just waking up. There has been word of attacks in Baltimare and Canterlot, but this was just rumors. The sun was barely rising, Scootaloo thought she would never see Celestia's again! It took a few minutes to tell Rarity about what happened. "Thank you once again for saving Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and I! I just don't know how to repay you!" Said Rarity. "Don't worry about it miss Rarity, though if you did have some cactus I wou-," "-Oh I know! How about I fix up you suit! It's awfully too big and dusty, I'll clean it right up just follow me!" Interrupted Rarity. "Uh Rarity, can you give me and the Doc some time, I need to talk to him." Said Scootaloo. "Why of course dear! I'll been inside, come along Sweetie Belle!" Said Rarity "Thanks Doctor! I'm gonna tell Applebloom what happened!" Sweetie Belle said. "Actually can you keep that a secret please? I don't want to be noticed, it's too dangerous." Said The Doctor. "Oh okay! I won't say a word!" Promised Sweetie Belle. "I promise darling, I may be into gossip but in this case I Pinkie Promise!" Said Rarity. The Doctor and Scootaloo were alone, the only thing that could be heard was the birds and wind. "Thanks Doctor, I would be a goner if it weren't for you!" Thanked Scootaloo. "It was nothing Scootaloo, I still have all the time in the world to get to know this world better!" He said. "Why didn't you tell me you could travel through time? Was it because you were scared that ponies will hate you?" "No Scootaloo, it's because me telling you I'm a time traveling pony already makes you in danger. Beside, I might stay here in Ponyville, it's smaller and safer, well now it is." Joked The Doctor. "I could show you around, but first Rarity's gotta show you around her house." Giggled Scootaloo. Ponies were coming out of their houses, the birds and flowers seemed to brighten the town. "Well come on then! First to Rarity's then Ponyville!" Said The Doctor. They both walked inside the Carousel Boutique, though The Doctor wasn't prepare of what he was getting into. And there was one thing The Doctor couldn't stand; and that was being patient. //-------------------------------------------------------// Presents //-------------------------------------------------------// Presents The day was filled with light and beauty, Celestia's sun was shining over Equestria with grace. Ponies ran and played under the warmth of the sun. Equestria seem to be in an eternal peace, it was beautiful. The moon and the sun seem to be one, and the stars were their guidance. The flowers were blooming, and the birds were chirping. The bees made their honey, and the plants gave oxygen. The park was especially nice when it was near the fall. On one road was a very old and childish pony, he could see how everything worked. His eyes could blind and cleanse the most evilest creatures. His very memories could burn a hole in the universe. His name haunted the most bravest men, and gave light to the most hopeless. He needed no strength to defeat an army, no power to rise against a god! His suffering alone keeps the universe in check, and his tears give life to others. He has given up his happiness for others, and traded his mortality for others. He has destroyed universes and dimensions all in the name of peace and harmony. He's the reason why time and space are one, he's the reason why his people are gone. He has lost so much so others can't. He has seen things that could cause the most sane man to become insane. He has been to the void and back, he has been to the end and beginning of time. He is the most saddest and loneliest conscious being in the universe, and has endured the most painful torture any conscious being can feel. And this pony was walking along the park with an orange filly named Scootaloo. "TWO MONTHS! Why didn't you tell me I was gone for TWO months?!??!" Asked The Doctor very gently. "Well it wasn't important at the time, I mean Blood Ponies and all." Said Scootaloo in a very loud tone. "Ugh! No wonder when we arrived back in Ponyville it was morning!" "Relax Doc, besides at least you traveled at the right time otherwise the Bloods Ponies would have taken over Canterlot!" "Yes I know Scootaloo, but if I hadn't been informed earlier I would have been all over time and I wouldn't be able to control the TARDIS's time travel mechanics! I could have died! Or worse! Then again, it was convenient that I arrived when you were taken. Seems strange. . ." Pondered The Doctor "Well it doesn't matter now, Doc. Look, I introduce you to most of the ponies around here that I know! Besides, you need to relax a little." Said Scootaloo. "*sigh*. Fine, who should I meet first?" Asked The Doctor. "Weeeelll." ____________________ "What's your name! What's your favorite color! Oh ooooh, how old are you? What's with the hair! And and and-" "-PLEASE! Pinkie pie, one at a time. I'm The Doctor, my favorite color is blue, I'm one thou-sixteen! And hey, my hair's perfect!" The Doctor said. "We should have a party to welcome you into Ponyville Docy! Can I call you Docy?" Asked Pinkie pie. "Well I-" "Well okay Docy, it's time to PARTAY!" Cheered Pinkie pie. The Doctor couldn't believe how fast this pink pony could talk. She had poofy pink hair, pink coat, blue eyes, and 3 balloons as a Cutie Mark. Scootaloo and him both walked into Sugarcube corner and were both blasted with confetti. The culprit was a pink bouncy pony who called herself Pinkie pie. He was then played to a musical number of her introducing him to Ponyville. The Doctor couldn't complain, it has been a while since he has ever relax. To him, it was like heaven. "AND, another one for you scoots! Happy Birthday!" Cheered Pinkie pie. "Huh? Birthday? Why didn't you tell me it was your birthday Scootaloo?" Asked The Doctor. "Oh well, I forgot when we were in trouble. I guess almost being killed made me forget, heheh." Scootaloo said. "Well I guess I need to get you a present, and I think I know what to get you!" He said. "Oh, really! What?" "Sorry Scootaloo, not after the party please!" "ARIGHT LETS GET THIS THANG STARTED!" ______________________ The party kicked of with a bang, literally. Pinkie's party cannon set up Sugarcube Corner in just 18 seconds! Ponies were already arriving and saying happy birthday to Scootaloo. The Music wasn't that bad, he liked classical jazz. The Cakes were off on a vacation and trusted Pinkie pie with the place, even after poisoning half of Ponyville! Scootaloo didn't receive that many gifts, only a dozen or so. The party stared at 4:00 pm, most of Ponyville had nothing to do. All of Scootaloo's friends were there, The Doctor got to meet some of them. Scootaloo introduced some of the Ponies that came; there was Roseluck, Cheerlie, Applebloom, Button, Sunshine, then Spike. Scootaloo then introduce what she said 'were the most important ponies of Equestria'! Twilight Sparkle, Protege of Princess Celestia. Applejack, Applebloom's big sister. Rarity, who he already knew. Fluttershy, who was too shy to even say "hi". When a Rainbow maned pony behind Fluttershy walked through the door, Scootaloo lost it. "OhmygoshRainbowDashyoucametomypartythankyousomuchyoudontknowhowmuchthismeanstomeIcantwaintto-" "-Whoa! Easy squirt, one at a time! Hey, who's this hot stuff over here?" Asked Rainbow Dash sexually. "Huh, oh um. I-I'm The Doctor!" Said The Doctor while he was blushing. Oh my god, Is she flirting with me!?! The Doctor thought. "Doctor? That's it?" "Uh, yes." "Well hot stuff, I'm Rainbow Dash. Fastest flyer in all of Equestria! Perhaps you heard of me?" Rainbow Dash leaned a little bit closer. "U-uh s-s-sorry, I-I'm n-new in town." The Doctor was blushing furiously. ''Hmm, well I hope to see you soon Doc, and Happy ninth birthday Scoots!" "T-thanks Rainbow Dash!¡!" Said Scootaloo. Rainbow Dash walked away winking at The Doctor. "Oh my gosh! She said Happy birthday! This is best day ever!!!" Cheered Scootaloo. The Doctor was paralyzed and blushing bright red. "Uh Doc, you okay? Somethin' wrong?" Asked Scootaloo. "W-what? Oh, no! Um, Scootaloo, was Rainbow Dash. Flirting, with me?" Asked The Doctor. "Hm? I don't know, why?" "I feel very disturbed, I have never been flirted by a pony before." The Doctor said. "Why?" "Let's just say that there was a reason why I freaked out when I first met you." The party was packed with so many ponies. There was drinks, cakes, cupcakes, cookies, soda, muffins, hay fries, hayburgers, sweets, lemonade, and chocolate! Ponies were dancing and shaking their hind quarters to the beat, Pinkie pie was bouncing all around. Scootaloo and her friends were also dancing. The Doctor was standing in the corner finding something to eat. "So Scootaloo, who's this Doctor fella'?" Asked Applebloom. "Oh um, just um-my-um, uncle. Heheh, he's visiting from Las Pegasus." Scootaloo said sheepishly. "Why is he just looking at the food like he's nev'r seen it befor'?" Asked Applebloom again. "Oh you know L.P and their fancy food and stuff!" Said Scootaloo. The Doctor was looking at the food. Lets see, I'm a equine so that means I'm a herbivore. What can I eat, do they have cactus? Hmm, hah! CACTUS! The Doctor thought. He was holding bits of small cactus that smelled amazing. He took a moment to remember how hard it was to get this delectable food. He began munching the cactus, he could feel the juices in his mouth. The was still digging at the bowl of cactus. He couldn't stop, it was so good! "Uhh Doc, I think you had enough." Said Scootaloo. "*munch**munch* Whhta, du yu men?" The Doctor said with his mouth full. "You just ate 5 bowls of cooked cactus, I think you had enough. . ." "Phife? *glup* But I only had-Whoa! Um, yeah I think I had quite enough." The Doctor agreed. All the cactus was gone, only bowls with leftovers that The Doctor missed. Someponies were looking in shock, even The Doctor was surprised. The party was still going, the music didn't stop. At this point, everypony was dancing, all but The Doctor. He never got the chance to dance before. He most spend his time reading every type of book there was. He even tried a few lessons in close quarter combat, but those lessons no longer were helpful since he couldn't stand, or make a fist. "Hey Doc, why are you all alone out here by yourself?" Asked Rainbow Dash out of nowhere. "W-what! Oh, hi Miss Dash-" "-you can just call me Dash or RD." "O-oh okay, Sorry Dash. Anyway, I'm here because I don't know how to dance." The Doctor replied. "Well mister tall and grumpy, lets get those hind quarters movin'!" Rainbow Dash proceeded to push The Doctor with her rump. "A-a-actually Rainbow Dash I think it's best I just, stay there!" The shuddered, he was beginning to blush. "Don't worry Doc, just follow what I do!" Rainbow Dash was holding on to The Doctor hooves, he was following. They began pumping their hooves up in the air (I'm seriously so bad at dancing myself that I can't even type about it!). They circled each other, they were almost like two gears. The Doctor tried his best to keep up, to his surprise he was good at this! They started holding hooves and spinning. The Doctor was greeting the hang of this! After a few dance moves, Rainbow Dash then pulled The Doctor closer to her face, they were nose to nose. "Not bad Doc, you seem like a pretty cool guy!" Said Rainbow Dash. "O-o-o-oh u-u-u-um, t-thanks. N-never really tried dancing!" The Doctor said nevously, at this point you would wonder why his head was red but not his body. "Well see you 'round Doctor, mail me sometime!" She brushed her tail under The Doctor chin, and then walked to her friends. "I can't believe already my mind is attracted to ponies, god I hate my subconscious!" He said under his breath. Some of ponies already left the party, some were beginning to. At this point Scootaloo began opening her presents. The first was a new helmet. "Aww yeah! Thanks Rainbow Dash, I totally need a new one!" Scootaloo said. "Hehe, no problem Scoots!" Said Dash. Scootaloo opened the next present out of 13. "Cool a bag for my scooter! Thanks Rarity!" "Your welcome Darling!" Said Rarity. Scootaloo opened her next present "Awesome a new pillow! Thanks Applebloom and Applejack!" "No problem Scootaloo!" Said Applejack and Applebloom. "Haha! A good luck charm! Thanks Twilight!" It was a small horseshoe with stars around it. "Your Welcome Scootaloo, I casted a spell that will give you good luck in times of need! I'm sure you'll find it very useful!" Said Twilight Sparkle. "What's next? Oo, it's a-a frame." In her hooves was a small frame with golden edges (I'm bring it back!) . "Who gave me this?" Asked Scootaloo. "Hmm, it just shows some weird circles on who's its from. I don't know Scootaloo." Said Twilight. "Hey Doc, did you give me this?" Asked Scootaloo. "What? No, I haven't given you your birthday present. Why wha-" The Doctor looked at who's its from. It was his name, written in gallifreyan. "Oh Time, you mysterious mistress." The Doctor whispered to himself. "I guess who ever gave it to you didn't want you to know." Said The Doctor. "That's weird. Were they too shy, maybe even shyer than Fluttershy?" Suggested Scootaloo. "You never know Dear, or they wanted it as a surprise." Said Rarity. "Or or or or, whoever it is must be the second surprise! Just like me!" Exclaimed Pinkie Pie. "Pinkie, no pony does second surprises like you." Said Twilight. "Doesn't really matter squirt, there must be a reason why they gave it to you." Said Rainbow Dash. "Yea', Dash is righ'. You shouldn't take a gift for granted." Said Applejack. "Come on, there's still more presents to open!" Said Rainbow Dash. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It was 10:00pm, every pony was leaving the party. Some ponies even decided to help clean up! The Doctor was waiting out side the door, he was waiting for everypony to leave. He was looking at the night sky, it was so different from his universe. He had time to get a grip of the situation he was in, it was new to him. He was able to observe at least half of the galaxy he was in, and he found something that would make an amazing present. Everypony was leaving, they finished cleaning up Sugarcube Corner. The first that came out were random ponies. One was grey and blonde maned with cross eye eyes, she seemed familiar. Later came Twilight, Applejack, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, Rarity, Fluttershy, and then Rainbow Dash. "Remember hot stuff, mail me . . ." Rainbow Dash said to The Doctor as she rubbed her cheek next to his. The Doctor was paralyzed and blushing. As Rainbow Dash left, giggling, Scootaloo came out the door. "Hey Doc, you said you'd give me a present, but why now?" Asked Scootaloo. "W-w-what? O-oh right," The Doctor snapped back into reality. "Sorry Scoots, any-who, yes. It is Time to give you your present. Just follow me!" They began walking down Town Hall, the sky was their only light source. The street candles light up, the sky wasn't polluted however. Scootaloo had most of her presents on her scooter, she was just pushing it. "So Doc, can I ask whats the present?" Asked Scootaloo. "Not really, but I can give you a few hint here and there." The Doctor said. "Like what?" "Well, I'm more showing you the present than giving it to you." He said. "Why do you mean?" "Oh, you'll see." The Doctor said with a grin. The were now passing the Ponyville Library, some of the candles were out. They continued walking down Ponyville, the trip seem to last forever. Most of the ponies form the party already made it back home and were now blowing out their candles. Some ponies were waving at Scootaloo and saying happy birthday, Scootaloo waved backed and said thanks. "So Doc, can I asked you when is your birthday?" Asked Scootaloo. "What? Oh yeah. Well Scoots, since your calendar is the same as my universe, and my people's calendar is different than theirs, my birthday is on the 19th of May. Thought I won't tell you what year, it's a secret!" He said. "Ugh, I hate it when you keep secrets!" Said Scootaloo. "So do I." The TARDIS was parked in the Ponyville park, near the bridge were Spike transformed back into his young self. The Lilly pads were floating away, and the trees seem to sing along with the TARDIS. It was 10:12pm. "So where ARE we going?" Asked Scootaloo. "Not yet Scootaloo, it's a surprise!" The Doctor said. He opened the TARDIS door, it's almost as if she said; welcome home Doctor! The TARDIS looked good as new, it's almost as if it never crashed in the first place! The control panel was cleaned and fixed, the floor was back to its golden color, the walls had it blue paint back, and the stairs were back to their silver color. "Alright Scoots, you're gonna love this!" The Doctor said. He began by pulling down a blue lever, brought down the monitor, pressed a few button on the keyboard, the monitor then showed the night sky, 2 yellow circles focused on a colorful small dot, The Doctor press a green button, flipped two black switches, pulled up a handle and twisted a small knob. *Vwoorrp* *Vwwwoooooorrrp* *Vvwwwwwoooooorrrrrrpppp* *Ding* "Here we are! Your birthday present Scootaloo!" The Doctor announced. They walked slowly the TARDIS doors, The Doctor grab the handle with his wrist. He winked at Scootaloo, then opened the doors. Scootaloo was hit by a bright light, her eyes adjusted. When she opened her eyes, she couldn't believe what she was facing! It was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen! It was a ginormous cloud with so many different colors, it was organized by layers of colors! It was so big, at least three times as big as the sun! There were a few rocks and dust floating around them, and what she saw next really amazed her. A small chunk of gold mixed with iron was floating passed them! She was breath taken! In the center of all the beauty was a small bright blue ball. It light up everything they could see. The colorful clouds surrounded the bright blue ball, like children dancing around a toy. The Blue, bright ball seemed to be pulsating, and the colorful clouds also seemed to be moving away from it very slowly. "W-w-what is this place!" Asked Scootaloo in awe. "This, Scootaloo, is how stars and planets are formed. This is the very thing that formed your planet, well not this but in a similar way. This is a Stellar Nebula! All those clouds you see are all the different kinds of elements that make up you, me, your world, my world, and everything we can see and think! This is the Death, and Birth, of a star!" The Doctor said. "Whoa! What's that blue thing?" Asked Scootaloo. "That is a star in the end of its life. It's a beautiful thing and yet it's a very sad one. This star probably had planets and life." He said. "Well what happened?" She asked. "When a regular star begins to die, it shrinks then begins to grow very fast. It engulfs any planet near it, and destroys it. It cools down, all the elements that formed are blown into the darkness of space. Some don't go very fast and orbit the remains of the star: the core. Gold, hydrogen, oxygen, helium, iron, aluminum, all the things that make us are formed from a dying star. The hydrogen clump up together and make a new star, the other elements orbit their new mother and also clump up making new planets. And if one planet is lucky, it grows life, and new ponies begin to emerge. That is how most life is formed Scootaloo, that is how life is made. It's a very sad and beautiful story, but in the end this is what happens." The Doctor said. "It's amazing!" "I know, I know." Scootaloo was jaw dropped by the beautiful nebula, and a bit sad by how it got that way. She could stare at it for the rest of her life. "Happy Birthday Scootaloo, you are the first Equestrian to see a Stellar Nebula up close." The Doctor said quietly. This was the best birthday present Scootaloo had ever received, she wished she could stay forever. At the corner of her eye, she saw something she never expected to be there. It was a burned up teddy bear, it looked sad. "Uh, Doctor. What is that?" Asked Scootaloo. "It's the Mark of the End of a Civilization, Scootaloo. Like I said, this is how it ends, and out of the ashes emerges a new civilization, like a Phoenix." He said in a sad tone. Scootaloo continued to stare at the teddy bear. She was grief of how the teddy bear got in its stage. She couldn't imagine what the teddy bear saw with its eyes. Both The Doctor, Scootaloo and the bear had something in common; they lost everything they loved. "Come on Scootaloo, it time to get back home. Your parents might get worried." The Doctor said. "Yeah, my parents." Scootaloo said holding back a tear. And just like that, the TARDIS disappeared. Leaving the teddy bear drifting of in space, alone, and full of sadness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Vvwoorp* *Vvvwwwoooorp* *Vvwwwoooooorrrrpp* *Ding* The TARDIS materialized near Sweet Apple Acres, no pony was in sight. The TARDIS doors opened, Scootaloo walked out. "Thanks Doc, for everything." Said Scootaloo. "It's my pleasure Scootaloo, though I insist on walking you home." Said The Doctor. "Don't worry Doc, it's alright I can walk myself." Insisted Scootaloo. "Well alright Scootaloo, and goodnight." "You too Doc!" Said Scootaloo as she was heading to Sweet Apple Acres. The Doctor closed the TARDIS doors, he thought about what Scootaloo said. Sleep, he hasn't had sleep in a long time. He walked back to the control room, he was sadden of what he showed Scootaloo. He was glad she didn't see what hiding in the clouds of elements; a planet in pieces and a few homes orbiting the star. He headed to the kitchen, he was always fascinated in making foods. But today he just wanted a cup of coffee. He put the coffee dust in the coffee machine. He poured water carefully, seeing as he had no hands. He set the timer, and waited. The Doctor hated waiting, he always was in deep thought whenever he was. He always thought of what he has done in the past, and he will do in the future. He thought of why and how he could avoided his mistakes he has done, but it always ended in a stalemate. He never liked being an immortal god, he could never be happy. The coffee was done, The Doctor grabbed the nearest cup that he could hold with his hoof. He set cup next to the coffee machine, he poured the coffee carefully into the cup. He set the coffee down and picked up the cup of coffee. He took a sip, he always loved sipping his coffee. The kitchen was blue, the floor was white and the ceiling, on one side was the sink, stove, cabinets, ect. On the other was a table and two chairs, both wood. The Doctor sat down with his coffee. As he was sipping he began to feel funny, not the good kind. He left his coffee and walked out the kitchen. His back was aching, he need to rest. His vision was getting fuzzy, and was blackening. He was in the control room, but he couldn't tell, he was getting light headed. What the hell! The Doctor thought. He was losing balance, he hit the control panel's side with his head. He was on the floor, his head was pounding! His back was on fire, in fact everything was! He was in pain, he couldn't get up! "AAHHHH!" He screamed. The pain was increasing on his back, he couldn't take it. His nose was bleeding and he was coughing out blood. Then out of nowhere, he felt something stab him in the back, like two swords! "AAAAAHHHHHHH!" The pain was intensifying, tears were coming of of his eyes. He was in a pool of blood, sweat, and tears, his mind was lost. And just like that, the pain stopped. But The Doctor fell into unconsciousness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Scootaloo walked towards Sweet Apple Acres, the sky was leading her way. The barn was dark, the Apple Family must be asleep. Scootaloo snuck passed the barn, she was pushing on her scooter. The clubhouse wasn't far, it's was 1/4 mile away from the barn. She always loved walking through the acres of apple trees. She arrived at the clubhouse, it was getting cold. She opened the door and went inside, she began doing the same routine she always has done. She opened the plank on the floor that was loose, she placed it next to her. Inside was her old pillow, a green blanket, and under all that was a picture. In the picture were two pegasi, one was a mare with a yellow coat, purple mane, purple eyes, and she was holding a small filly: Scootaloo. Next to her was a stallion with a orange coat, brown mane, and purple eyes. They were all in a park, smiling like there wasn't a care in the world. Scootaloo placed the picture on the frame, she set it beside her. She place her new pillow on the floor and covered herself with her blanket. She didn't have anything to eat but that was okay, she was full from the party anyways. As she was drifting of to sleep she began to recall the present from The Doctor, she was the first pony to be inside a nebula. She looked at the photo of the three ponies, a tear fell from her eyes. "Goodnight mom and dad, I miss you." Scootaloo said as she fell asleep, dreaming about one day meeting them again.
