> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two ponies walked together in the Statue Gardens. One was a fine unicorn mare mare with sleek grey fur and white hair. The other, a tall strong pegasus stallion of yellow fur and violet hair.

Silver Watch sighed happily as she leaned against her boyfriend. "Isn't this romantic, Day Storm?"

Day Storm let put a happy sigh as well. "A moonlight stroll through the Statue Gardens. Soft breeze... and a beautiful mare at my side. It's even more perfect because the mare is you."

Silver Watch playfully shoved Day Storm. "You flirt, you!" The two giggled. "Say, isn't that where the statue of Discord used to be?"

"I think so. But now, only those three stand." Day Storm positioned himself so his back was to the statue. He struck a pose as if he was bravely fighting the three. Day Storm looked towards Silver Watch. "Hey. You. Kiss me." he said simply.

"Oh that's real romantic" Silver Watch said sarcastically. She gave him a smooch on the nose. "Though I kinda wonder how Discord got out."

"Didn't the ex-princesses free him so he could be reformed?"

"Yeah, but he broke out the time before. How did he pull that off?"

Day Storm sighed. "Not sure, but how about that kiss?"

Silver Watch rolled her eyes. She then pulled Day Storm's face close for a deep kiss. As they kissed, the sound of stone cracking filled the air.

Day Storm pulled away. "What is that sound?" Silver Watch pointed at him. "What?" He then realized she was pointing behind him. Day Storm turned around and saw the stone of the statue splitting. A chunk feel off of Cozy Glow's face.

"EHHHH!" Cozy Glow gasp and took a deep breath in. Silver Watch shrieked. Tirek broke free and drained Silver Watch of her magic. Day Storm grabbed her and quickly flew off, screaming for help.

Tirek stretched as his allies freed themselves from stone. "Love. Those fools brought Love right to me." Chrysalis hissed. "Enough to free us!" Cozy Glow looked around confused.

"Something wrong Cozy?" Tirek asked. There was a hint of concern in his voice.

"I haven't the foggiest clue who you are, good sir! Oh look at that! I'm British now! Hello, world! The DOC is in!" Tirek took a step back as Cozy Glow leaped to her hooves. She had a strange and old accent.

Chrysalis felt her log wiggle. It began to take shape. She gasped. At last, her wonder would breath true life! She quickly fed it the love she had just consumed. It took the shape of Cozy Glow, with a dark rich brown bark fur, and a dark shape of purple for the styled hair. The eyes were that of a proper changeling.

"WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME!?" Cozy Glow screamed. She fell on her rump and looked at her fore hooves. "AHHHH!!!!"

"AHAHAHA! Hello, odd creatures! Who are any of you? Oh I should introduce myself but I guess you can call me the Doctor or just Doctor or Doc and I'm rambling aren't I oh well today is just incredibly excited I'm going to pause now because I need to breath!" Cozy Glow watched in horror as she watched herself go into a coughing fit.

"WHY ARE YOU IN MY BODY!?!?" Cozy Glow screamed.

"Run now. We interrogate the doctor later." Tirek said. He could hear the sound of running in the distance.

"Run? Oh I love running! ALLONS-Y!" With that, The Doctor began running into the maze. The others followed. Evetually, they lost the guards running after them and emerged back in the Statue Gardens. "Okay, let's find a great hidning spot!"
*
TWO HOURS LATER AT DONUT JOE'S
*
Tirek munched on a donut as the doctor chatted with Donut Joe. "How did this happen?" Tirek asked.

The Doctor sat on one of those swivel stool chairs. "Well... We ran here after that madness at the gardens, I explained to Donut Joe here that I somehow took over Cozy Glow's body while forcing her soul into changeling wood, and that I was hungry. NO! WAIT! Not The Doctor. Only call me that if I'm getting too cruel. Call me... Mr. Clever."

"Golly! I hate to break it to ya mista," Cozy Glow began with a sweet voice, "But you are a girl!" she finished angrily.

"And if I'm correct, you feed on love now and can change your form once you mature enough. So, not a bad bargain!" Mr. Clever said. Chrysalis raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Clever, why is there metal growing out of your neck?" Donut Joe asked. He was acting calm, mainly out of shock. Mr. Clever took a clean platter to use as a mirror.

"Oh! My cybernetics are upgrading!" he proclaimed. A ring of silver formed around her neck. In the front, it began to form a bowtie. The right half of the bowtie was blood red. The left half has pitch black. On each corner of the bowtie was a light blue blinking light. "Hm. Not what I was expecting. But I suppose I could still produce some Cybermites. Now then, Donut Joe. What do we pay you with?"

Donut Joe gulped. "B-bits" he stuttered.

"I'm guessing you don't mean bits of flesh. So, what are 'Bits', my good man?" Chrysalis, Tirek and Cozy Glow all gave Mr. Clever an odd look at her statement.

"B-b-bits are g-gold, Mr. Clever" Donut Joe sputtered.

Mr. Clever's eyes opened wide in fear. "Did you just say gold? As in, 'There is only gold in my cash register and is such a common currency you can bye pastries with only a somewhat small amount' kind of gold?"

"Yes?" Donut Joe answered.

Mr. Clever's face gained a slightly pale shade. "Oh good golly. That ain't good."

Cozy Glow had a thought of why that might not be good. "Say Mista? How connected are you and me? Seeing of how you're in my body." she asked sweetly.

"I did my best to completely cut you out" Mr. Clever answered.

"So what happens if gold touches you?" Tirek asked. He and Chrysalis also came to the same idea.

Mr. Clever shivered. "If it touches an exposed circuit, I will shut down, and most likely die." Mr. Clever then realized what they were all thinking. "BUT! If I die that might also mean I won't be the only empty vessel! In the course of me dying, it may also end Cozy Glow's own life!"

Cozy Glow punched the table. Because of her new changeling strength, it broke. "DANG IT!" she shouted. "I AM SO PEEVED!" Cozy Glow then gasped and brought her hooves to her mouth.

Tirek and Chrysalis raised their eyebrows. "Language" they said simultaneously.

"So if gold touches you, you flat out die?" Donut Joe asked. A ding filled the air as his cash register opened. Outside, shouts from the guards could be heard.

Mr. Clever cleared her throat. "I propose an idea. RUN!" Donut Joe threw bits at Mr. Clever. A bit hit her bowtie and she fell over.

Cozy Glow looked at Mr. Clever. "Hey, I still feel... fine... Tirek I feel like every bit of me is slowing going to sleep!" Cozy Glow began to panic. "Tirek! Give him some of your magic! Do something! I don't wanna die!"

Tirek quickly drained Donut Joe of his magic and gave it to Mr. Clever. Mr.Clever's bowtie lights blinked. 

"NEVER LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN!" Mr.Clever shouted. "Now let us commencing with escaping.

The four of them ran from the guards, until they came to Canterlot's waterfall. Nearby was an old abandoned crate, and the guards were getting close. "Alright then! Everyone, in the box!"

Chrysalis stared. "You're mad."

"No, I'm Clever. Now then, if we don't leave right now, it's back to stone."

Cozy Glow leaped in the crate. Chrysalis followed. Tirek entered the crate. Mr. Clever pushed it in the river and hopped in. The three villains hung on to each other as they went over the waterfall.

"GERONIMO!!!" Mr. Clever screamed at the roaring water.

> Chapter 2: I claim this Castle
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The three gasped as they came up to the surface. Mr. Clever was waiting for them on the shore. "Hello! Have a nice swim?"

"I would kill you right now if it didn't mean I would be killing myself" Cozy Glow growled.

"Good to know! I'll swap bodies with you if you ever beat me at a game of Chess. But be warned, I am The CyberPlanner. I beat The Doctor and upgraded his companions." Mr. Clever said with a smug look on her face.

Tirek dragged himself out of the river. "Now what, Mr. Clever?" he angrily asked.

Mr. Clever looked towards a massive crystal castle. "Well, I do love a good fortress. And who would suspect the greatest foes hiding in the home of a king?"

"Princess. A princess rules all the land." Chrysalis said as she wrung water out of her hair.

"Hmp. The people need an upgraded ruler of a CyberKing."

"What is a CyberKing?" Cozy Glow asked. Mr. Clever gave her a smug look. "Ugh. Fine, lets go hide in the castle..."

"What?" Mr. Clever asked. They were all looking at her. 

"My- Your left eye is blinking light blue in time with your bowtie." Cozy Glow pointed out.

"What? Must be a side effect." Mr. Clever said. She rubbed her eye. It continued to blink.

Tirek sat down on a nearby rock that jutted from the riverbank. "I think we have a bit of time. Tell us about yourself, Mr. Clever. After all, we have to trust each other on this team."

Mr. Clever gave a smile. "Alright, story time! So, before I became this creature who is STILL guarding here memories from me, I was something else. I was a CyberPlanner. I had a Time Lord. But that Time Lord won against me. Or so he thought. I hid, biding my time. I took control of him after he had angry eyebrows. But before he had those eyebrows, I was smart, manipulative, could charm people with my looks, and was a hell of a genius."

Tirek shook his arms to rid them of clinging water. "Great. Another Cozy Glow." he said foully.

"Hey!" Cozy Glow grumbled.

Chrysalis looked at Cozy Glow, then at Mr. Clever. "Cozy Glow... grew her hair bands. You only have a hair band in your tail. How is it still styled?"

"I haven't the foggiest clue. I'm hardly even wet! Wet! Wet!ERROR"

Cozy Glow gripped her head. "There's something wrong with her! I'm getting a major headache!"

Tirek lifted Mr. Clever into his arms. He found a bit on the back of the bowtie. "I found the problem." Tirek took the bit off.

"WHOA! Total reboot, for the most part. Let me go, I'm not a child." Mr. Clever squirmed in Tirek's arms.

"Actually, yes you are." Tirek explained.

"No, I'm not! This body is over twenty years old! That means I'm an adult."

There was a silence between the three. Cozy Glow spoke up, fear in her voice. "How long were we in stone?"

Mr. Clever put a hoof to her chin in thought. "Did you happen to have parents who had you at a somewhat old age?" Cozy gave a slow nod. "Well, they're dead now. Wait, why does that make me sad? Oh! It's because it makes you sad."

"M-my parents are dead?" Cozy Glow tried to keep from crying.

"Oh, it's not so bad. Why do I feel so sad? Oh. Oh no. I'm infected! With emotion! I must upgrade against that! Unless... The Doctor was grand because of his emotion. Maybe I should keep the emotion, just in case. No. Wait. I'm rambling. As I was saying, it's not so bad! You got the big guy over here for a father figure slash mentor, and now you have Chrysalis as a mom because you are now a changeling."

Cozy Glow, Chrysalis and Tirek all looked at each other for an awkward moment, before turning to look at Mr. Clever. They then realized Mr. Clever was running to Twilight's castle. "This could end badly." Tirek said before leaping to his hooves to follow.

"You think?" Chrysalis responded before grabbing Cozy Glow and following.
*
CRYSTLE CASTLE
*
Yamun heard the sound of a window being smashed. He got out of bed to look. It was nice of Headmare Glimmer to let him spend a night in the castle. But now somecreature was breaking in. So Yamun would smash the intruder. Or talk to them, perhaps while smashing something. He crept out the hall. Before him was a small pegasus. "Hello! Who is you?" he politly asked.

"Hello there. My name is... Doctor Clever, I guess. But you can call me The Doctor, or Mr. Clever. Who are you?"

"Name is Yamun! I stay in Ponyville little time. But still, you new to town, yes?"

Mr. Clever shook glass out of her wings. "Yup! You could say I'm out of this world." She paused and studied Yamun's face. "You look happy because I'm new here, yet you are sad." Mr. Clever sat down among the glass and put on a sweet, sad face. "Please explain why?"

Yamun sat down. He hung his head. "Yamun here at school to make friends. Yet is so far from family. New place, know much, yet so little. Don't understand." He looked up. "Why are you sad?"

Mr. Clever sighed. Her eye lit up. "I... I'm not sure. I had one mind, yet it's interacting with another. The other is stronger, so I feel that emotion with my logic. I came from one place, then suddenly I'm in a new place, so much knowledge in my head that is so useless!" She sat down. "And I remember small bits of something new that I know, but I don't know how or why I know them. And I discovered my parents have passed. I feel like I shouldn't be concerned about their deaths, as I'm still alive. But I feel so angry and sad. And... a little bit empty."

"So that is why you cry?" Yamun asked. Mr. Clever gave a confused look. "You have tears rolling down glowing eye." Mr. Clever reached up and looked shocked when feeling the tear drop. "Come. Headmare set up smashing room for yak guest. We go. Let anger out with satisfying smashes. Sound good?"

Mr. Clever gave a feeble nod. "Sounds like a grand plan." Mr. Clever had to think like a child. A grown mind and childs brain were a bad mix. She lessened her mind so it wasn't over worked. This made her feel greatly better. But breaking something still would help.
*
Starlight Glimmer raised her head from her pillow. It sounded like Yamun had decided to visit the smashing room. Starlight yawned, rolled over, and headed back to sleep.
*
Tirek looked up at the window. It was too high, even for him. "Now what?" he asked. "I can't reach. And even if I could, I'm not strong enough."

Chrysalis groaned. "I don't have much strength either."

Cozy Glow put her hoof to her chin in thought. "Tirek, how much do you weigh in your weak state?"

Tirek frowned. "About a hundred fifty or so pounds."

Cozy Glow smiled. She frowned as she tried to fly. "I can't lift myself!" she complained.

Chrysalis poked Cozy Glow's wings. "Of course not. As a changeling, you need a far faster wing speed to provide any lift!"

"Which means I'll just be dead weight." Cozy Glow said. "Okay, here's the plan. Tirek, take some magic from Chrysalis so you can throw me though the broken window. Then give Chrysalis back her magic so she can quickly fly you and herself through the window. I'll be waiting for you."

The plan was quickly preformed. They all were soon in the castle. There was the sound of things being broken down the hall. "I think that's Mr. Clever." Tirek said. They all ran towards the sounds. Chrysalis threw open the huge doors from which the sound came from. All three of them were shocked to see a room full of chairs, tables, benches, stools, tools, carriages and more. Mr. Clever and a young small yak were beating a wagon with chairs.

Mr. Clever waved them over. "This is a room meant for breaking stuff!" she said happily. "You got anger for being trapped, blow off some steam! Particularly you, Cozy Glow! You need this the most."

Cozy Glow tilted her head in confusion. "What?"

"Break stuff and blow off steam! Let your anger fuel your destruction!"
*
Starlight pulled her pillow over her head. Either Yamun was in a good smashing mood, or he had a bad day. Because the smashing was getting loud.
*
TWENTY MINUTES LATER
*
Mr. Clever stood panting. She tossed a table leg away. "Golly! That was loads of fun! I sure worked up an appetite."

"Don't say that." Cozy Glow quickly said.

Mr. Clever tilted her head. "Don't say what? 'Golly'? Too bad, toots! I'm you, but you aren't me. I'm stuck with your catchphrases and instinct! Along with your emotions. The one thing I don't got is your memories, because you're hiding them from me."

"And they will stay hidden! You may look like me, but your not me!" Cozy Glow snapped.

Mr. Clever was honestly hurt by that remark. Her ears flattened against her skull. "Ouch. I though you might at least try to understand. I'll... I'll try to find something else to say."

Cozy Glow glared. She then turned back to smashing things. Yamun spoke up. "New friend say they hungry, right? Come, we go to kitchen and make grand cake to eat."

Tirek stared. "Why are you not afraid of us?" he asked.

Yamun tilted his head, his shaggy hair swaying. "Why should Yamun be afraid? Only changelings and pony. Now come. We make grand food.

Mr. Clever smiled. She then thought to herself. "The Doctor has odd fancies with each regeneration. I think I fancy a steam slash cyberpunk Christmas." She happily trotted behind Yamun. The others followed. They had no idea what had happened to Equestia while they were trapped in stone.
*
MORNING
*
Starlight Glimmer yawned and stretched. She kissed the forehead of her husband. "Coffee" Sunburst groaned. Starlight shook her head slowly.

"No." she whispered teasingly. Sunburst voiced his complaints in a single grunt. "Okay, fine. You win." Starlight hopped out of bed. Sunburst made a happy grunt. Starlight Glimmer trotted into the hall to find Yamun carrying a breakfast tray on his head. He was singing a happy tune. "Nice to see you in a good mood!" she cheerfully commented.

"Yes! Yamun made new friend last night! Her name is Doctor Clever. Or The Doctor"  Yuman looked thoughtful. "And for odd reason, Mr. Clever."

"Sounds delightful! I would love to meet your new friend!" Starlight giggled. Either Yamun had made an imaginary friend, or he had met somecreature during the night. Starlight wondered if she should be worried about that.

"She has three companions. They traveled a distance to come here. And Doctor Clever likes technology and Hearths Warming. They spent good time decorating." Yamun motioned to the walls. Starlight Glimmer looked. She was surprised she didn't notice it before, but it looked as if The Doctor had decided to decorate Hearths Warming as a machine.

"Wow. How did I not notice that?" she said simply. "So, where is your new friend and his- her companions?"

"They in dining chamber, eating food. Here they are!" Yamun opened the door with a slight wag of his short tail. Starlight's jaw dropped.

"No. It can't be. Yamun, run. Run for your life."

Mr. Clever waved. "Ello, ya ugly half minded bastard! How are ya this lovely day? Me and my chums have returned from the dead, and I'm not liking the way I'm talking so I'm going to try another style." Mr. Clever bit into a pancake. Tirek and Chrysalis gave a wave. Cozy Glow trotted over to Starlight.

"Young one, run away with Yamun. Just run. These are Equestia's three worst villains." Starlight Glimmer said to the changeling. For some odd reason, the changeling and Cozy Glow laughed. Cozy's eye began blinking with light.

Cozy Glow strained with effort so her wings would beat fast enough to stare Starlight strait in the eyes.  "That's not Cozy Glow. I am. BOO!" The four laughed as Starlight ran screaming.

"Doctor Clever! That is rude." Yamun scolded. Mr. Clever was surprised that her ears flattened. "You should apologize! What do you have to say for self?"

Mr. Clever looked down. "Sorry. I just wanted some fun." Her head then snapped up. She sniffed the air. "No. No it can't be."
*
The Doctor sniffed the air from outside the TARDIS, near the market. "What's wrong, Doc?" Ditsy asked. She approached The Doctor.

Applebloom came over. "Something smell funny, Time Turner?"

"I smell... something full of hate. I smell something I thought I left behind. And I smell your grandmother. None of these are adding to anything I want to smell. So, ALLONS-Y! Derpy, to the TARDIS! There's a Dalek somewhere!" The Doctor turned to enter the TARDIS, when he saw her. Granny Smith. "Well darn. Nopony say a single word about the fact she died. Nopony, okay?"

Granny Smith was confused. Yes, she got many a stare when she went shopping. Something to do with her perky attitude. But now, so many were staring at her. She then bumped into a changeling. "Hold up now... CHANGELING!!!" She leaped into the air, landed, and began running as fast as she could. To her surprise, she was making speed of a decent trot. "CHANGELINGS! CHANGELINGS ARE HERE! WE GOTTA RID OF THEM 'FORE THEY KILL US ALL!!! OH SWEET CELESTIA THEY'RE EVERYWHERE! CAN'T Y'ALL SEE THEM!?"

A changeling named Shulker leaped in front of her. "Ma'am, please calm down! I know you remember bad changelings, but try to remember the last few decades! We're all good now! We'er all- Granny Smith!?" Shulker stopped trying to calm her. "I- I thought you died!"

Granny Smith stopped her panic. "Oh. That's right. I did die. Kinda funny for me ta forget somethin like that." She gave a warm smile. A stalk burst out of her forehead. "EXTERMINATE!"
*
Mr. Clever shook her head. "How did I get here!? Lets see, Doctor dies and I appear. My kind was against emotion, Daleks thrive in hatred. We both came here, but why- I CAN SMELL OTHER TIMELORDS! Oh, I am slow!" (S)he leaped towards Cozy Glow. "You wanted revenge, yes?" Cozy Glow gave a quick nod. "You wanted revenge?" (s)he said to Tirek. He also nodded. "And you-"

"Yes, I want revenge. Why are you asking us this?" Chrysalis snapped.

Mr. Clever paced around the room. "We are the most wanted crinimals. We need to find a place to hide. In a castle this large, that will be easy. They will also expect us to have moved to another location." She walked over to Yamun and hugged him. "Chrysalis, Cozy Glow, eat up. Now then, I trust my new friend will keep us a secret because no matter how much you wish to disagree, we aren't a threat. I'm rambling." Mr. Clever sat down and pulled Yamun down with her in a tighter hug. She was extremely stressed and hugging a large furry animal helped. She snuggled her face into his shaggy coat of fur.

Chrysalis drank in the love. Cozy Glow looked confused as how to do so, but managed to get some. "What does any of this have to do with revenge?" they asked.

"Daleks. Daleks run off hate, I believe. Revenge holds much hate."

Yamun slowly reached for the plate on pancakes. He was getting a tad bit embarrassed by being snuggled. He was probably only a year older then Doctor Clever, so he knew about dating. He also knew that yaks and ponies can date, and even knew of a Sandbar and Yona who were married. Thinking these things only made him more flustered as he ate the pancake. "What's a Dalek?" he asked.

"Uhh... I could draw you a picture of one later. A slight tip in case anyone ever bothers you in the future. When I'm mad, I'm worse then every Dalek through out time and space." Mr. Clever slowly ripped half of Yamun's pancake away and ate it. She then released him. "Okay, you close your eyes while be and my friends hide so we don't have to be encased in stone again for years being conscience for every waking moment, not being able to move. Please lie to the meanies and say we left the castle. Bye!"

Tirek raised an eyebrow. He thought draining the yak of love and magic, then killing him would be a better plan. As he headed to the library, led by Mr. Clever, he realized that would create more attention. Attention they didn't need. Mr. Clever pulled out an odd stick. It had a green glow at the end.
*
"Time Turner, let me go!" Granny Smith struggled against the restraints. "Let me go, ya hear? I ain't gonna be no test rat!"

The Doctor glared. His wife, Rose, stood behind him. Ditsy stood beside him. "For decades I've had my companion and my wife. I have stuck around to protect them. And I always will. Now, I am talking past the Dalek. Granny Smith, how and when did they get you?" He pulled out his sonic screwdriver. A blue light pulsed from it. "Can you hear me Granny?"
*
"Now, I smelled a Dalek. But it's missing most of it's important smells. Which means, a pony or somebody similar, has been killed and converted. One who is converted may have the memories they had, but they lack the emotion. Only the strongest of minds can reach back and fight; take control for a little while. This is extremely rare and it's best not to get any hope that the converted hold their soul."
*
"Stop saying exterminate! I don't want to talk to the Dalek! I want to talk to Granny Smith!" the Doctor slammed his hooves on the console. "And you! Sexy, why won't you tell me anything!? Why won't you tell me how the Daleks did this?" The TARDIS hummed. She gave no answer.
*
"Now then, this cavern of grand books should provide a grand thing. We shall hide here while I see if the TARDIS followed me."
*
The Doctor layed his head against the console. "What's wrong girl? Is the mean Dalek doing something to you?" A face appeared on the screen. It was of an old human with fierce eyebrows. He was labled: "Doctor". "No. No no nononono. I am not leaving. I'm not running. To hell with the paradox it will create. I'm not going to become him." The Doctor paused. The face went to him, The 10th. It changed into his pony face, with a face with a large chin and fez beside it. That then changed into an old version, which became an old man's face. That became the face of a blond women's with Cozy Glow's face beside it. "What?" was all he had to say.
*
THE NEXT DAY
*
Cozy Glow stuck her head out the door. The decorations were taken down. "I think it's safe." she whispered.

"Is Yamun out there?" Mr. Clever and Tirek asked. They looked at each other. Tirek looked away while Mr. Clever continued to stare.

"No... And I'm hungry!" Cozy complained.

"You just ate." Tirek responded. Chrysalis whacked him on the back of the head.

"Idiot! She's a changeling now, and a young one. She needs a constant diet of Love!" she angrily explained.

Yamun passed by the door. He sneezed, dropping a note in the process. Cozy Glow quickly snatched it up. "Not safe yet. Some guards still here. Should be gone soon. Because I young, they think I should leave. But, also because I young, I may be able to stay." she read. Cozy Glow put down the note. "Ugh!  Not only am I hungry, but most of these books are boring!"

"I agree" Mr. Clever responded. She moved her sonic around. "Why do I still have this? I thought I lost it. Oh well. I'm going to the dusty back sections of the library and I'm going to decorate. I seem to be a have of Christmas, but I get a feeling that's the wrong name for it. I may be overly emotional but that's because I originally didn't have emotions and I don't know how to deal with them that well." 

Tirek sighed. "Two Cozy Glow... I think this will drive me insane."

Chrysalis nodded. "We might as well find some corner to decorate as well." she said.
*
FIVE DAYS LATER
*
Starlight Glimmer yawned as she woke up. Her husband surprised her with a tray of breakfast. "Good morning, honey. I made you waffles!" Sunburst said. He let out a yawn. "I got up early so I could make it for you."

Starlight smiled. She exited the bed and kissed Sunburst on the cheek. "Thanks honey. I'm going to take a walk around the castle." She walked into the hall, levitating her breakfast with her. She munched on her breakfast as she walked. Glimmer gave an odd look as she saw Yamun sneak into one of the library rooms. This was odd, because he was super young, the kind of kid who preferred to play outside whenever he could.

"I don't think you should follow him." Starlight gasped and whipped her head around.

"Time Turner! You scared me!" she exclaimed. She always wondered how Time Turner stayed looking so young, despite the decades.

The Doctor stared angrily. "Do. Not. Follow. I believe a very old friend of mine is inside that room. He is dangerous, so I will handle him. If you follow, I will become dangerous to you." Starlight gulped under his stare. He then entered the library.

Tirek looked out from behind a book self. "Oh no." He folded a paper airplane and sent it to Chrysalis. She read it and threw it to Cozy Glow. Finally, it reached the dusty corners of the library. Mr. Clever stopped hugging Yamun and read the note. 

"Golly- ahem. Goodness. We got company." Mr. Clever sniffed the air. "And I think it's an old friend of mine." She gave Yamun one last hug. "Hide. If you want, you can watch. But stay hidden."

Tirek, Cozy Glow and Chrysalis stared wide eyed as Mr. Clever stepped out to confront the intruder. "Hello, old friend." Mr. Clever said coldly. "Miss me?"

"The same way I missed Daleks." The Doctor replied. He turned his head slowly around the room. "I know you others are hiding. Show yourselves." He then turned back to The Master. "I don't know how I never saw it all those years ago. But it makes sense. I don't know how I didn't smell you. Do they know your name?"

Mr. Clever gave a sweet yet angry smile towards The Master. "Do you really think I would tell them?" She looked around the room. "Maybe introductions are in order."

"Oh, I know Tirek and Chrysalis. They are murderers. Tirek in a timeline where he beat the Elements burns Equestria. Like that man did to Gallifrey. Chrysalis kills and drains the life in a huge war. She kills Applejack with her bear hooves. And you. There is a timeline where everything is gone. No. Magic." Time Turner looked at the bookshelf Tirek hid behind.

They spoke at once. One sweetly, the other angrily. "Ladies and Gentlemen, might I introduce THE MASTER!" The Doctor's frown faltered as he looked at Cozy Glow. Mr. Clever's grin turned to a look of confusion. 

"Everyone, say what I'm called." Mr. Clever said. 

Yamun poked his head out from behind a bookcase. "Your true name? Or your nickname? Cause you said your name is Doctor Clever, Mr. Clever, or simply the Doctor. Yamun heard you say real name in sleep."

The Doctor stared. "What."

Cozy Glow hopped out from behind her bookself. "Golly! This must be so confusing for you!" she said, adding her slight lisp.

"I'm the Doctor. OH! I'm thick! I'm old and thick! That's why the TARDIS was so upset! Me from the future hold up two Cozy Glows?"

Mr. Clever smiled. "You don't remember? This may refresh your memory." She gave a smile. "Ahem. ALL HAIL THE CYBERKING!"

"What?" The Doctor shook his head slowly. "Sorry, why would I say that?"

"Did you forget about me, the same way you forgot about No More? Pity." Mr. Clever headed to a table. She removed her bowtie and stripped her Sonic. "Wearable technology. Remember that?" She got to work, having Chrysalis transform her hoof to help. "These should be compatible... Reminds me of Pond, somehow."

"Who's Pond?"

Mr. Clever snapped her head towards... "Hm. What do I call you and WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN WHO IS POND!? Amelia Pond, the girl who waited!" She rushed up to The Doctor and punched him. "THE GIRL WHO WAITED! You met her after you regenerated after defeating Lord President!"

The Doctor rubbed his face. "I came to Equestia that day I regenerated."

The two stared at each other. "Massive Paradox, our lives branched off at the same point. This is not good." they both said. 

Mr. Clever cleared her throat. "Everyone, BLINK!" She forced The Doctor's eyes open while a bright flash entered the room.
*
The Doctor looked around. He was in Twilight's old Castle. He looked around him. He was in a corridor. He decided to leave. 
*
Tirek looked at Mr. Clever. "What did you do?" he asked. He brought over more gears and set them on the table.

"Silence. It was a trick from the Silence. To prevent the universe from tearing itself apart, I made The Tenth forget I existed. This has happened before, but it hasn't yet for him. Time travel is very confusing, so don't ask. I also put up a perception filter, meaning only Yamun will actually notice this room. So, we have a base. I see Cozy Glow making plans for domination, but I suggest something else. Once I A: find my TARDIS or B: Make a new one, we should travel the universe."

Yamun hooved over a screw. He looked over Mr. Clever's left shoulder. "Why is bowtie bigger on inside?" he asked.

"Time Lord Technology!" Mr. Clever proudly said. She got back to working on the Sonic Tie. "We need some music! Cozy Glow, please go with Yamun and get a radio or boombox or something like such."

Cozy Glow wanted to object, but she was also bored and tired of being cooped up. "Fine" she groaned. "But won't ponies recognize me?"

"To avoid panic, I'm sure the ruler of this land would not tell the nation the three worst villains have escaped. And we have been trapped in stone for decades. No one here will even recognize you. Still, avoid old people and slightly beyond middle aged folks. They might remember you." Mr. Clever winced as a spark hit her skin. She sucked on her hoof.  Tirek and Chrysalis actually did most of the fine work, as Mr. Clever still couldn't figure out how to use her hooves properly. "That reminds me. Get some groceries. I need to find out what my favorite food is so I can complain when we don't have it later."

"Yamun thinks we should leave by window." Yamun said. Doctor Clever quickly ran over to him, stumbling on the way, and gave him a quick hug. She quickly returned to her work at the table.
*
LATER
*
Mr. Clever and her companions sat on top of the castle. To clean to top or simply to have a grand view, a ladder had been designed to reach the top. The sun was setting.  "This...this is a grand regeneration. I think I'll make it last." Mr. Clever said. She sighed happily, leaning against Tirek. On her right was Yamun and Chrysalis. On her left, Tirek and Cozy Glow. "Yes indeed. Life can be great."

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE STORY! GOT SOMETHING TO SAY? PUT IT IN THE COMMENTS!

The Doctor yawned as he climbed out the left side of his bed. His head felt slightly fuzzy. The bed was also warm. He looked back towards the bed. Ditsy was napping in the right side of bed. He sighed. "Ditsy. I know your home was destroyed, but we gave you a new house."

"Home is where your loved ones are" she mumbled.

"Well, leave. You'll be late for your shift."

Her head snapped strait up. It then moved back down. "It's Sunday, Doc. I've been with you long enough to know the day anywhere. Like you say, Sundays feel boring." She reached over and grabbed The Doctor, pulling him in the bed.

"Ditsy! I don't have time for this!" He struggled to get free from his incredibly strong friend.

"Doc, you're a Time Lord. You have all the time for this. Plus, you're not doing anything today." she snuggled against him.

Rose walked in the room. "Hello Derpy. You hanging with my husband?" Ditsy nodded. "Well too bad. I got plans for the three of us. I found I flyer in The Doctor's TARDIS about a planet where creatures speak music!"

The Doctor gave up trying to escape Ditsy. "Yes, problem. We can't go there, because that's another universe."

Ditsy saw Rose's smile. She gave one of her own. "Doc" she whispered in a soft tune in The Doctor's ear. "We are personal friends with Twilight, who is a friend of Starswirl" she sang.

"B-but that's reckless! And using contacts for reasons of-" The Doctor was interrupted by Rose putting her hoof over his mouth.

"Doctor, honey. I'm bored and want a change of pace. I need adventure. Equestria has been peaceful for decades, but I don't want a peaceful day."

".... FINE! I need to find out who River Song is anyways, and I think the TARDIS is finished with the collar. NOW LET ME GO!"

Ditsy seemed to think about it for a moment. She released The Doctor. She grabbed him again when he tried to escape. "No." she said. 

"Rose, Help me!" The Doctor called out. His wife smiled and approached.

"No." Rose said. She climbed on the bed and snuggled The Doctor.

"Oh come on!" The Doctor complained.

"Shush" Ditsy Do and Rose Whooves answered.
*
CRYSTAL CASTLE
*
"For the last time! We are not a family!" Tirek rubbed his head as he walked away from Mr. Clever.

"Sure we are! You're all extended fam! Sort of. Gang, chums and the sort simply won't do! So it's fam!"

Chrysalis sighed. She lay on a bed fashioned from soft leather bound books. "Give up arguing, Tirek. She's a stubborn child, so you can't win!"

Cozy Glow moved her rook. "Ha! Check-" Mr. Clever moved her knight. "Oh come on!" Cozy Glow flipped the chess board in anger. She lost every single time against Mr. Clever.

"Ha! I bet you regret your tattoo now!" Mr. Clever shouted in victory.

Chrysalis put her hoof to her chin in thought. "Would Yamun be part of the fam?"

"I don't have a tattoo." Cozy replied as she set back up the chess board.

"Than what's that on your tush?" Mr. Clever replied. "And why do you question if Yamun is fam?"

"Well," Chrysalis answered. "Cozy and you have Cutie Marks. And I think Yamun would be your boyfriend.

"What are Cutie WAIT WHAT!?" Mr. Clever and Yamun looked at each other, before turning away. "But-"

"But nothing. If you to are dating, your love will be stronger, and more filling. Besides, you said yourself that as a Time Lord you could be male or female when you regenerate." Chrysalis said. She picked up a book about a romantic detective.

"NO!" Cozy Glow shouted. "She's in my body! If she and him start dating" she shivered in disgust. "I won't stand for me kissing any yak!"

Tirek sighed. "Why are we even discussing this?"

"Because we have no way of taking over Equestia as of now and we are quite booorrred." Chrysalis answered. She threw the book across the room. It smacked against the wall and stayed there.

Mr. Clever walked up to the wall. "Now that's interesting." She walked up the wall. "Gol-wow! I think I remember what I did with the anti-gravs." Her bowtie blinked with her eye, and she fell with the book. "Oof!"

PONYVILLE ALLEY WAY
*
"There's nothing here!" Lyra Harpstrings groaned to her wife.

Sweetie Drops let out a sigh. "I may be retired-"

"Fired for marrying me"

"RETIRED. But, I still have a sense of duty." Sweetie Drops finished. "And the creatures of this area have been saying the trash bins are moving about."

"Look, I know you're really bored ever sense we and Carrot Top stopped traveling with Time Turner, but really? Trash bins?" Lyra pulled out her harp and played it with her hooves.

"WHAT. IS. THAT. SOUND? EXPLAIN. EXPLAIN!" Lyra stared wide eyed at the odd thing before her. "Bon Bon, honey? I think I found what you're looking for."

Sweetie Drops turned around. She pulled her wife away from the creature. "Oh sweet dear Celestia. Yeah, we found it." Fear was thick in her voice. This did not comfort Lyra.

The creature was a smooth gray with light blue balls in it's hide. It was also light blue at the arms. At least, they seemed to be arms. "EXPLAIN. EXPLAIN."

Sweetie Drops quickly bit Lyra's horn. "OW! What was that-" she felt a spell happening. "Wait. Did you just force me to do magic?"

"Yes and sorry but we don't have much time. Doctor! Pick up your phone!"
*
ROSE'S HOUSE
*
The phone rang. The Doctor knew there was no chance of reaching it.  "I feel like I'm forgetting something important. Like... Like my worst and greatest foes are right beside me, staring at me, and I somehow don't notice!" Rose and Ditsy gave The Doctor an odd glare. "What? Was it something I said?"
*
PONYVILLE ALLEY WAY
*
"Doctor pick up your phone! Ugh!" Sweetie Drops bit Lyra's horn again. "TARDIS, bring The Doctor this message. This is Ex-Agent Sweetie Drops of S.M.I.L.E. We have found a Dalek. It's grey with blue, rather then bronze. GET YOUR BUTT HERE NOW. End message." she bit Lyra's horn one last time. "Sorry sweetie, but it but it would have taken way too long to teach you the spell.

"ANSWER ME! EXPLAIN! EXPLAIN! WHAT IS THAT DEVICE THAT MAKES NICE SOUNDS? EXPLAIN!" The Dalek waved his left arm. It fired a weak bolt of light blue energy. It hit Lyra. "EXPLAIN!"

"Oh my goodness!" Sweetie Drops pulled Lyra away from the Dalek. "Are you alright?"

"Relax! It only tickled." she approached the Dalek, only to be pulled back by Sweetie Drops. "Bon Bon, what gives?"

"Stay away from it! Daleks are nothing but blood thirsty murderous monsters!"

"So like a dragon decades ago."

"I- what?"

"Don't be racist, Bon Bon. The dude didn't hurt me. He just wants to know what my instrument is."

Sweetie Drops looked at her wife. "ARE YOU INSANE!?" she then turned towards the Dalek. "And you! Wait. Did you ask what that nice sound was?"

"AFFIRMATIVE. IT IS PLEASANT TO MY SENSES. I WISH TO UNDERSTAND IT. ONLY SCREAMS OF DEATH SOUND BE PLEASANT. BUT THIS SOUND IS BETTER. EXPLAIN. EXPLAIN!"

"I think you just like music." Lyra answered. "Are you hurt?"

"AFFIRMATIVE! WEAPONS SYSTEMS ARE MAJORLY DAMAGED! MOTOR FUNCTIONS SLIGHTLY DAMAGED. MERCY. MERCY!"

"Kay. You're kinda weirding me out?" Lyra said. "I'm not gonna hurt you."

Sweetie Drops had an idea. "I know you have armor, but what is your shield status? You don't want a projectile to enter your slots."

"MY SHIELDS ARE COMPLETELY COMPROMISED." the Dalek answered.

"What's your name?" Lyra asked. She didn't like the look her wife gave when the thing said shield were gone.

"I AM A DALEK. I AM A DALEK! I AM DALEK DALEK!" It's voiced seemed to strain. "I AM DALEK! I SHOW YOU MERCY! MERCY! I- AM- MERCY!" it said with great difficulty. "I AM MERCY IRONSIDE! TAKE THAT, CULT OF SKARO! I AM A FOOTSOLDIER AND I HAVE NAMED MYSELF! I AM MERCY IRONSIDE!"

"What's the cult of Skaro? BON BON PUT THAT ENERGY BLASTER DOWN!"

"ESCAPE! ESCAPE!" Mercy Ironside's thrusters activated. He flew away towards a building on a hill. He crashed in the building through the ceiling.

"I almost had hi-" Sweetie Drops was halted mid sentence by being slapped.

"ARE YOU INSANE!?" Lyra asked. "You just tried to kill a defenseless creature!" Lyra stormed off, leaving her wife in the alley.

MUSIC STUDIO
*
Octavia hummed to herself. She approached her roommate with a glass of milk. "Here. Have a drink-" A huge crash interrupted her. Octavia shrieked and dropped the glass of milk. Vinyl grabbed her and pulled their-selves behind a loud speaker.

"I HAVE ESCAPED. WHAT IS THAT NOISE?" The Dalek headed towards a large box structure. Noise came out. It was odd. It was hideous. It was so strange it should be torture. "WHY DO I LIKE THIS NOISE?" He scanned the area. "LIFEFORMS DETECTED! IDENTIFY. IDENTIFY! PLEASE." If he was to be different, he would also be kind.

Vinyl stepped out from behind the speaker. She gave a wave and motioned Octavia to come out. "Hello." Octavia said. She glanced towards her roof. "Nice of you to... Drop in. I am Octavia Melody. Not to be mistaken with Octavia Harmonica. This silent yet loud pony here is my roommate, Vinyl Scratch. Might I inquire who you might be?"

"I AM A DALEK! I AM- MERCY- IRONSIDE"

"Dear me! Do you have a sore throat? Vinyl, please fetch our guest some food. We can talk concerning repairs later." Octavia walked towards the dining room. She motioned for the dalek to follow her. "I must say, I have never heard of a dalek race before. Not to be rude."

"I... AP-O-LO-GISE FOR THE DAMAGE!" Mercy said. 

"Why are you talking oddly?" Octavia asked. Vinyl made three sandwiches and had put them on the table.

"I AM NOT FROM HERE! MY VOCABULARY IS... LIMITED! BUT I AM TRYING. SO I LEARN AND LAUGH IN THE FACE OF THE CULT OF SKARO!"

"That... nice. Where do you live? Or rather, where do you reside?" Octavia got no response. "Do you have a place to stay?" Octavia only got silence. Vinyl almost tripped as she zoomed up to Octavia. She had a begging look on her face. Octavia sighed. "Would you care to stay with us?"

Mercy thought about it. He realized this meant he could have friends. "AFFIRMATIVE!" he answered. Vinyl did an air fist pump. Octavia smiled. "CAN YOU TEACH ME HOW TO MAKE THAT NICE NOISE?" Vinyl let out a silent cheer.
*
TARDIS
*
The Doctor fixed the collar on Granny Smith. She tried to bite it. "Stop that. Now then, this will keep the dalek from rising. Just be sure to watch your temper. And don't eat any pears."

"So I can be with my family with this?" Granny Smith asked. She could feel hope swelling in her.

The Doctor smiled. "Yes." Granny Smith tackled him in a hug.

MONTHS LATER! WINTER!

Yamun looked to make sure nocreature saw him. Posters had been put up for the trio two months ago. He entered the room and stared with wide eyes. "Ha! I conquered you again!" 

"Yamun is confused. What happen to room?"

Mr. Clever looked around the room. It had holographic projections permitting for a far larger and complicated version of chess. Galactic Chess. "I expanded the chess game! And I won yet again."

Cozy Glow grunted and detonated her armies. She was tired of losing. "UGH! I am so booorred!"

Tirek sighed. "Well that's too bad. Until we actually have a plan for anything, we are confined here."

Chrysalis shoved Yamun beneath some mistletoe. She reached for Mr. Clever, only to find her burning the mistletoe with her eye and bowtie glowing blue.

Mr. Clever finished burning the mistletoe. She then had a thought. "What if we just went somewhere, no plan, just for fun, disguised? After all, we're all cramped in here. Time to head out and stretch our legs!"

Tirek thought about it. "Who will be the chaperone?" he asked Chrysalis.

"Why, I shall" Mr. Clever said. "My mind is over two thousand years, after all."

"Two thousand year old mind in a ten year old body using a Gallifreyan hard drive that's held in your tie to prevent from burning up my brain." Cozy Glow said.

"While being for all your lives a boy and now suddenly a girl" Chrysalis continued.

"With a reputation, according to you, as a mad man in a box who goes 'wonkers'." Tirek added.

"And still hyperactive in a too long cooped up child." Yamun finished.

Mr. Clever stared at all of them. "Well crap. I've been telling you too much about me. Fine. Chrysalis will be chaperone. Tirek, I made you a set of trousers for you to wear."

"Why do I need trousers?"

"Glad you asked!" Mr. Clever said. She ran to her section of the library and came running with dark blue trousers in her mouth. "You have four legs, so anypony will strait away know who you are. But these trousers are designed so they are bigger on the inside. And when you put your legs in it, it will make it seem like you only have two legs! Here, try them on. Merry Early Christmas!"

Tirek raised an eyebrow. He tried on the trousers. In them he could be mistaken for a minotaur. A single pair of Tirek's hooves could be seen out the bottom of the pants. "Clever" he said. He paused and looked at Mr. Clever, who had a smug smile. She gave him a box. Inside was a white dress shirt, a black blazer, and a bright yellow tie. "These are too large for my thin frame."

"Put on the tie" Mr. Clever said, looking as if she would burst from excitement.

Tirek put on the rest of the suit. He had help from Mr. Clever tying the tie. She stood on the table to do so. Tirek could feel energy flow through him. "Mirror. Mirror now." Chrysalis brought over a cracked mirror. Tirek looked at his large muscles. "I do believe this 'Christmas' gift is awesome" he said in his new, deeper voice. The trousers also gained a more buff appearance.
*
SWEET APPLE ACRES
*
"So, how are you feeling?" The Doctor asked.

"Fit as a fiddle, Time Turner!" Granny Smith answered. She had gotten used to the collar and odd stares. "But I'm wondering, why are you still so young looking? Cause I saw lived long enough to see your wedding, it's decades later, and you don't look a day older."

The Doctor smiled. "I guess its just my genetics."
*
CRYSTAL CASTLE
*
"So it's decided. We leave today for Manehatten. Next week, for Canterlot" Chrysalis said. She had the disguise of of a dark brown Applejack with crystal apples and blue hair bands. Her hat was a dark grey. "I'm going with this because by now Applejack looks far older and different. Cozy Glow, you don't need to disguise yourself because you already don't look like yourself. Mr. Clever, you will wear a red cloak with a green trim" Mr. Clever smiled happily. "It will be uncomfortable for your wings unless you give Yamun a smooch."

"Well I guess I'll make my own cloak! SEE YA!" Mr. Clever raced off to her corner. She returned with a green cloak that had a red hood and golden trim along the edges. The hood easily covered her face. She had on a set of white booties.

"Why the boots?" Cozy Glow asked.

"Well why indeed? I would say why not but after thinking on the sentence for two hundred fifty hours, seventeen minutes, and twelve point nine hundred fifty six seconds, I realized that-"

"The sentence is odd when you think about it, but you used that thought because you were really bored and tried to distract yourself from the fact you don't know how to use those wings so you're using anti-grav booties." Tirek finished.

Mr. Clever gave an awkward smile. "Yes. That too." she said. A tear rolled down her cheek. "But it's nothing really because I can work around that with technology." she said with an overly happy voice.

"Yamun go too. Help Doctor Clever when sad." Yamun said. He walked over and hugged Mr. Clever. Chrysalis walked over and joined the hug. She pulled Cozy Glow over as well.

"Just so you know, I am giving you this hug only so you produce more Love." Chrysalis said.

Tirek shook his head. He walked over and scooped them all up in a hug. "Your statement is as true as me saying I am only doing this to show off my strength." he said to Chrysalis with a smile.

"Show off." Chrysalis retorted.

LATER

Starlight Glimmer waited for Yamun at the train station. Her husband stood beside her. They heard he was going on a Hearths Warming trip with his family, and they were excited to finally meet his folks. They were also quite shocked.

"Come on come on! Hurry! We don't wanna miss the train!" a little filly bounced in a festive cloak and white boots, bouncing similar to Pinkie. She shouted at a minotuar with a face that looked incredibly like Tirek's.

"Calm down, Clever." the minotaur replied. Behind him was a pony that resembled Applejack in her younger years, Yamun and a changeling Starlight felt like she recognized. "The train won't arrive for another ten minutes."

"UGH! I KNOW! But I don't wanna wait that long!" Clever said.

Starlight coughed. They all quickly turned to look at her. "Hello! Are you Yamun's family?"

"Yes we are! Yuppers yuppers yuppers yuppers!" Clever ran in a circle.

The minotuar groaned. "I knew we shouldn't have let her bake her own cake! She put far too much sugar in it."

"My name is Starlight Glimmer!" She extended her right hoof.

"Crystal Cake." the pony said. "That there is Clever. I'm sure you already met Yamun. Then we have the unfortunates. Tirek here seems to share the face and name of the villain, while my daughter Cozy Glow shares her style for fun."

"It's a pleasure to meet you all." Sunburst replied. 

"Tummy ache!" Clever suddenly shouted. She promptly fell over and curled up, covering herself with her cloak.

"I told you that was too much sugar." Tirek said with a hint of laughter.

"And as I said before, I'm strong enough to face the consequences!" Clever said from beneath the cloak. She let out a groan, before standing to her hooves.

"See, I told you we wouldn't be late!" They all turned to look at the ponies approaching the station. 

"Dalek!" Clever shouted. She leaped behind Tirek's legs and hid.

Octavia gave a wave. "Greetings! Are we all heading for Manehatten?" she asked.

"Oh, me and Starlight are just here to meet Yamun's family." Starburst explained.

"SEASONS GREETINGS! I AM MERCY IRONSIDE. I AM A DALEK. BUT DESPITE MY SCARY APPEARANCE, YOU HAVE NO NEED TO FEAR ME, SMALL ONE."

Clever peeked her head out from behind Tirek's legs. "Prove it!" she said, sticking out her tongue. The cloak hid her eyes. Starlight had the strangest feeling she knew them all. She also felt as if Crystal Apple was staring at her. A quick glance confirmed it.

The Dalek remained silent for a moment. He discovered with a quick scan Time Lord Technology on the filly. "I... LOVE MUSIC." he answered. The filly stepped out from behind the legs. 

"You what?" she asked, clearly confused. She walked up to the dalek. Starlight's eyes opened wide as Clever kicked the dalek. "Huh. You really do want to be good. You even deactivated your shields. Well, welcome to this universe! How'd you get here?"

"I... AM NOT SURE. I AWOKE DAMAGED AND MADE FRIENDS. I HAD ALSO DISCOVERED A LOVE FOR MUSIC. I HAVE GIVEN MYSELF A NAME. TAKE THAT, CULT OF SKARO!"

Clever let out a giggle. "Well then! Here's a warm welcome from the doctor!" She hugged Mercy. "It's grand to finally see a good dalek." She then looked up at Mercy's eyes, still hugging. "Or does that make you a bad dalek? Or, just a normal living creature? Most likely that last one. Excuse me, I leave to find a bush and throw up in the snow."

Sunburst watched as the filly ran off towards a nearby bush. He and the others winced as they heard a large "blarg" and a heavy wet splat. Clever returned. Sunburst gave her a handkerchief, which she gladly excepted. "Thank you, mistah!" she said. She turned her head as they heard the whistle of the train. "Ohh!!! I'm so excited!!!"

"INDEED! THIS WILL BE A GRAND VACATION OF HEARTHS WARMING OR CHRISTMAS." Mercy said. "I HOPE TO FIND GRAND THINGS THERE."

Starlight noticed a lack of much baggage or luggage for Yamun's family. Only a suitcase per member. "Quick trip?" she asked. Tirek gave a smile and nod. Starlight looked towards the Crystal pony. "Sorry, but why are you staring at me?

Chrysalis thought fast. "Just wondering if you're taken." she said with a wiggle of her eyebrows.

Starlight Glimmer blushed as she took a step back. "I- uh- married!" She pointed to Sunburst. "A-and besides, isn't he your husband?" She asked, pointing at Tirek.

Crystal Cake gave a sly grin. "Maybe, maybe not. But- OW!" Clever kicked her in the leg. The train arrived, and Glimmer let out a sigh.

"All aboard!" The Train Conductor shouted.

Octavia and Vinyl brought on the luggage. Vinyl gave a glare to anycreature that gave Mercy a too odd look. Yamun waved goodbye to Starlight and Sunburst.

Starlight Glimmer bit her lip. She looked at her husband a few minutes after the train left. He looked at her. "Go ahead. You can say it."

Slarlight took a breath. "So... A crystal pony, a minotuar, a yak, a changeling and a pony. All as a family. Sorry, I just had to point out how odd that seems." she winced. To many, it would seem like she had just been some what racist.
*
TRAIN
*
Mr. Clever let out a laugh. "Mission successful!" Because of how little creatures were on the train, they managed to get a car all for their selves. "The first part at least." She threw off her hood. "Ah. Much better. Though my hair kinda hurts."

Cozy Glow realized something. "You haven't been letting your hair down to comb and restyle it, have you?"

"I didn't know I needed to. And why do you look so sick?" Mr. Clever looked towards Chrysalis with worry.

"HURK! I just flirted with the one I hate most in this world a few minutes ago." Chrysalis felt so sick, she could no longer sustain her disguise. Thankfully, they were near the caboose with nocreature in the neighboring cars.

"I need to stretch my legs properly" Tirek said. He began to remove the pants as Cozy Glow undid Mr. Clever's hair.

Mr. Clever raised an eyebrow. "But you can stretch properly in those."

Tirek gave a nod. "I know, but it's really strange and unsettling to move four legs and only see two." he answered.

The door opened. All the occupants snapped their heads towards the door. Vinyl took a step back. She looked scared. Mercy pushed her forward. "GREETINGS, DOCTOR. AND HIS COMPANIONS. DO NOT BE AFRAID, VINYL. THE DOCTOR CHOOSES THE KINDEST OF BEINGS FOR HIS COMPANIONS. I AM SURE THEY ARE SAFE."

Octavia entered. Her jaw opened. "Oh." she said. "Yamun, this is your family?" she asked in a strained voice.

"Yuppers! We're all fam here!" Mr. Clever said cheerfully. "Do you have a brush?"

"Here." Octavia said. She slowly hooved over a hair brush from her bag, before turned to Tirek. "So... You're The Doctor?"

In response, Tirek pointed at the filly. "That would be me! I'm the Doctor. I also go by Mr. Clever."

Vinyl gave a look of confusion. "Vinyl, sit down. Your legs are shaking." Octavia advised. Vinyl gave a nod a collapsed on a bench, her legs shaking as she gripped her bag. "Why Mister?" Octavia asked.

"Uh... Is she gonna be alright?" Mr. Clever asked. She had a face of concern. Octavia was shaking as if she was in a snowstorm.

Octavia sat down beside Vinyl. "Don't worry! I won't let them hurt you. And we have Mercy Ironside to protect us, remember? Strongest warrior race in the universe."

Mr. Clever looked at the terrified pony. "Hey, don't worry. I'm not Cozy Glow. She is. Ow!" she said, pointing at Cozy Glow and discovering the pain of hair knots.

Vinyl looked unconvinced. She looked at Octavia, her teeth chattering. Vinyl slid her left hoof over her throat. Octavia pulled Vinyl in a hug. "She wants to know how many you've killed."

Mercy Ironside shook. "SEVEN THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED NINETY TWO."

"I've never bothered to count." Chrysalis said. "But I'm sure it's a huge amount."

"I've been around for thousands of years. More than I could count have been killed by my hand." Tirek answered

Cozy Glow was silent for a moment as she continued to comb Mr. Clever's hair. "I've never killed anypony. At times I say I will, but saying and doing are two different things."

All eyes turned towards The Doctor. (S)he gulped. "I... Well, this counts as a regeneration, so it's a clean slate!"

"How many?" Chrysalis asked.

Mr. Clever tried to avoid eye contact.

"THE DOCTOR HAS DESTROYED ENTIRE PLANETS AND COUNTLESS FOES. HE HAS RID THE UNIVERSE OF SUCH A GREAT NUMBER OF DALEKS, THEY HAVE GIVEN HIM THE TITLE OF THE PREDATOR. MOST DALEKS DESERVE DEATH."

Mr. Clever cleared her throat. "ANYWAY!" she shouted "We're going on vacation so nobody will be killing anyone! And the daleks did deserved it. They, with an exception of a certain few, are pure evil, bred for destruction of anything that isn't dalek. Kinda like Nazi, in a weird way." She put her chin to her jaw in thought. "Hmm..."

Mercy moved himself to a seat. "THIS TRIP SHALL BE NICE. I AM GOING TO BECOME A DISK JOCKEY." he said to The Doctor.

"Wow!" Mr. Clever replied. "That's where you sweep stuff around with a broom for a sport, yes?"
*
LATER
*
Despite the start of the conversation, things were now going quite well. Octavia tried many styles for Clever's hair (she wasn't willing to call a filly "mr"), but only one style would actually stick. Which was Cozy Glow's hair style. Octavia also tried to braid Yamun's hair, but he quickly explained he wasn't old enough yet. Something to do with tradition.

Chrysalis put back on her disguise as they reached the train station of Manehatten. 

Tirek smoothed out his pants. "Alright, we all should stick together."

"Nobody wander off!" Mr. Clever said sternly, hopping onto Tirek's shoulders. "I mean it."

"AFFIRMATIVE." Mercy responded. Tirek found it oddly nice for Mr. Clever to be on his shoulders. The whole group got many stares as they headed to a hotel. The streets were lined with Hearths Warming decorations.

Vinyl's stomach growled. She made an awkward smile and made a sound similar to a chuckle. She pointed to a nearby restaurant. The group headed towards it.

"Oi! You gots a reservation?" a gruff and large griffin in a suit asked.

Mr. Clever looked through her veil of a hood. "Aren't there any open tables?" she asked, seeing many open tables through the window.

"Nah. Ya gotta reserve ahead of time, even if tables are open. Tough luck." The griffin answered.

Mr. Clever pulled out her physic paper. "We have a reservation, see?"

The griffin inspected it. "Huh. Lord Tirek plus extended family. Oh. And Vinyl Scratch plus Octavia Melody! A couple of celebrities, ey?" He handed the physic paper to Tirek, who handed it to Mr. Clever. They were all given a large booth.

Vinyl gave Mr. Clever a confused, but impressed, look. "Vinyl and I are wondering how you just did that." Octavia said. Vinyl sat with Octavia and the wall on her left. Mercy stood at Vinyl's right. On the right side of the booth, Chrysalis sat near Octavia. Cozy Glow sat between Chrysalis and Tirek. Mr. Clever sat at Tirek's left.

"I'll answer that. But first, is Vinyl death or dumb or both?" Mr. Clever said. She shrunk beneath the glares from the two mares. "What I do this time?" she whispered.

"Why I never! How dare you say such a thing!?" Octavia scolded. She received a glare from Chrysalis, who let out a hiss.

Tirek brought his right fist to the table with a large thump. "Ladies, please! Look, Dr. Clever meant no harm. Her mind is thousands of years old. Before I was imprisoned some thousand years ago, being mute was known as being dumb! That, I believe, later became an insult for anycreature who couldn't speak normally. Now, please don't fight or else we'll be kicked out!"

Vinyl looked skeptically at Tirek. She was also slightly afraid of angering him, but felt braver with Mercy beside her. She gave a nod to Octavia. "She's mute." Octavia answered. "Now, how did you reserve in advance?"

Mr. Clever gave a grin. "Okay. I didn't" she said with a large smile. She pulled out her physic paper. "What does it say?" she said while focusing on the message.

"It says two for one canes" Octavia answered.

Cozy Glow gave her a funny look. "No it doesn't! It's a coupon for school supplies."

Chrysalis studied it. "Now that's just cruel. 'One free return of your kingdom'. Why does it say this?"

Yamun stared. "Yamun see blank paper with flickering message of smashing party."

"A SHEET OF MUSIC."

Tirek grinned. "One year free access Gym membership. Please explain how this works."

Mr. Clever grinned. "So, first off, everyone call me Dr. Clever. It sounds cooler. And second, it's called Cyberamped physic paper. Normal physic paper messes with your mind so you see what you want, so it can convince you. Cyberamped paper is something I invented in this universe. I can project what I want you to see while seeing what will convince you most. I don't really wanna fool Yamun, so it flickers for him."

Vinyl had a grin. Her grin grew wider as a waiter came over. "May I take your order?" the griffin waiter asked.

"Can I have... this?" Clever asked, pointing at a page.

"Choose a single item, Clever."

The food orders were soon placed. The waiter cleared his throat. "I can't help but notice what an odd party you are. Might I ask as to why you're in such a party?"

"We be fam! And extended fam!" Clever said gleefully. "You can tell who is with who by who is one which side of the table."

"Oh! Oh my, I hope that my asking didn't seem racist!" the griffin exclaimed.

"Extremely." Chrysalis answered while Dr. Clever answered with a "Not at all."

"Well, yes. I'll give the chef your orders now!" the waiter said, before briskly walking away. 

The food was soon delivered. All but Dr. Clever was shocked to see Mercy burn up his food, before sucking up the ashes with his right plunger looking arm. "QUITE NUTRITIOUS." he stated.
*
LATER
*
They all checked in to a fancy hotel, which they apparently reserved a suit for. Vinyl's eyes widened as they entered the suit. She gave a bewildered look at Dr. Clever. "Not that we're complaining," Octavia said, "But why are you doing this for us?"

"Eh, just because." Dr. Clever said with a shrug. "I always do stuff like that. Whenever I need to get a job a place so I can save the world, I let people win the lottery rather then... disposing of them." she said. "DIBS ON THAT BEDROOM!" she giggled, before running to a random room in the suit.

Tirek rubbed his chin. "Imagine all the things we could do with that Cyberamped Physic Paper."

"Yeah! Like cheap parlor tricks!" Dr. Clever called out. She stopped. "Oh my goodness I just realized something."

"WHAT?" Mercy asked.

"Yamun is an orphan." Dr. Clever answered.

Chrysalis moved over to Dr. Clever. "How can you be so smart, yet so stupid at the same time?" she asked.

"Because I'm the Doctor."
*
NEXT MORNING
*
The party left the hotel. The food there was far too fancy for any of them but Octavia. Even Mercy Ironside claimed the food was hardly nutritional.

They all had a grand time, viewing the sites of Manehatten. Tirek gave a firm and cold glare to anycreature that gave the group a weird look. Mercy had a ball in the shops, and flew at some points in joy. Cozy Glow stole the Physic Paper for a few minutes to get a large sack of bits from the bank. This money was stashed in Dr. Clever's wallet. Cozy Glow carried the wallet as Dr. Clever was terrified of gold.

"Oh, Jingle Bells Jingle bells," Dr. Clever sang. She then gasped. "A charity drive!" The charity drive was in a parking lot, with a GIANT bucket held by a metal bar. Somecreatures walked up a metal stair case to put bits in. A unicorn shoved Clever as he walked by. "Hey!"

"Hey yourself, ya-HURK!"

Tirek lifted the rude pony by his throat. "Apologize to my daughter or I'll ruin your life."

The pony looked at the angry minotaur. He saw no others. He then realized the minotaur meant the filly. "Sorry little girl" he wheezed. He was released and ran off.

Chrysalis raised an eyebrow. "Why did you do that?" she asked.

"Acting as an overly protective parent means you can glare at more people with an excuse as to why." Tirek answered.

"Come on! Let's donate some bits!" Dr. Clever squealed. "We still got money, right?"

Cozy Glow checked the wallet. "Yeah, we still got loads of bits. We can donate up to twelve, or else creatures will wonder where we're holding all our money."

Dr. Clever walked to the underside of the bucket. The very bottom was ten feet off the ground. The bucket suddenly cracked, and gold came rushing out. Dr. Clever's ear flattened against her head, and she screamed.

Cozy Glow screamed in agony as the gold interfered.
*
The 12th Doctor rushed in the TARDIS with Dr. Clever. "Okay! Clara, you want to know how I escaped this time?"

"We didn't! I'm still under the g-g-g-g-g ERROR old! How are we- OH! Testament Thinking!" Dr. Clever looked around. The console room was short circuiting and bursting with flames.

"Well, that's one way of looking at it, I guess. Always assume you get out alive. Clara, ask me how I survive!" The 12th said. There was the sound of chalk writing. Clara and a crimson Earth pony with smiling flowers on her tush stood at the chalk board. 

How?

"Glad you asked! Well, as you can see-" The 12th was interrupted by Dr. Clever.

"We don't! When we came to this world after regenerating, I somehow came back! I didn't ERROR ask how because I thought I was in control! I lied to them, Doctor! I don't know why or how this happened, but I do know gold kills us!"

Exactly.

The Doctors stared at the message. "Oh. Oh! Exactly! If you came back from this after being defeated, there is a chance we can regenerate! You're keeping the body alive! It's independent from you but a regeneration can save both!"

"But I only have one heart! And- And- And ERROR I can't keep the body! I have to return it! You cursed me with kindness in my program! I have to- have to- have to- ha ERROR return her body. When she wins. I have to return it." Dr. Clever shouted.

Win.
Regenerate
And Win.

"I can't! I have to return... Oh god I'm going to die." Dr. Clever said softly. "I'll die if I don't do this. And she'll die to." Dr. Clever looked at the console. The lever only had to be pulled down. She put her hoof on it. "I can't."

The 12th put his hand on her hoof. "But we can." They pulled the lever down together.
*
"Come on!" "Get that gold off her!" "We need more help here!" Everycreature nearby had rushed to help. They threw the bits to the side as they tried to save the child. The gold went ignored. They hoped against reason. All those bits on a single filly. They hoped. A golden light appeared beneath the gold. That said where she was buried. A face was seen. A minotaur shoved the other creatured out of the way.

"Clever!" Tirek shouted. He pulled the filly out of the gold and held her to his chest. She had blood on her. "Somecreature get an ambulance!" he called out. The filly cried against his chest. He didn't care that his suit was getting ruined. He only cared that she was alive.

Dr. Clever felt the minds merge. The Doctor and Mr. Clever were fully one. And she was horrified. And scared.

Cozy Glow was confused. She felt alright now. There was a bright flash of golden light, and she felt fine. But Dr. Clever was not.

THAT IS IT FOR THIS CHAPTER! Oh my, what an ending. More story will be on it's way, don't worry. Got something to say? PUT IT IN THE COMMENTS!

HOURS LATER
*
Dr. Clever groaned. "Where am I?" she asked. The room was white. She noticed some green curtains. "Oh! I'm in a hospital. My booties are still on my feet. Wait. Oh sh- Nope not gonna swear. I'm a kid. Golly- no that doesn't feel right on the tongue. Where was I going with this? Ah, yes. I'm not wearing my cloak which means they saw me which means the jig is up!" Her wings buzzed. She leaped out of bed. Well, tried to. She tripped on the blankets and fell on her face. "Okay. You know how to hover. So why are your wings acting up?" She tried again. Her wings buzzed as they moved at a too fast of a speed. But she gained no lift. 

A dragon in a white coat entered the room. "Hello Clever. I see you're awake!" he said cheerfully. He looked at his clipboard, then looked up in shock. "Oh my Twilight you're awake. Wait here. I'll tell your family." The dragon ran out, leaving the door open.

"I- okay then. I'll just explore, I guess."  she said. "Wonder why he's so excited." Dr. Clever looked in the hallway. "Boring whiteness with lots of doors. Only way to go is to follow him, I guess. God, I have such a headache." She reached up to her forehead, finding bandages. "Oh. That's why." She continued to walk through the hall.
*
Lunar ran down the hall. He bumped into a unicorn doctor. "What are you running around for? You're supposed to be checking on Clever."

"She's awake." Lunar replied.

"What!? But her injuries! She should be in a comma!"

"Yeah! And her injuries are mostly gone too!"

"Her wings?"

"Not sure. But I gotta tell her family! See ya!" Lunar ran off.

"Get back here, you nurse! Ugh. Guess I'll check on her. While I'm on break. Wait, is that her?" A filly ran past him. "She shouldn't be able to run!"
*
Tirek was shaken awake in the waiting room. He had been there with the others for the past two days. Chrysalis slapped him. "Wake up! She's awake!" Chrysalis hissed.

"Yessir, I am!" Tirek snapped to attention. Before him was Dr. Clever, all healed up. "Hiya!" Dr. Clever was quickly scooped up in a hug.

Tirek realized what he was doing and quickly set Dr. Clever down. "Don't ever do that again." he told her.

"I'll try!" Dr. Clever responded. Tirek smiled until he realized that answer held two meanings.

"I knew you were alright!" Cozy Glow said. "I felt nothing wrong."

Yamun walked up and gave Dr. Clever a hug. A dragon in a white coat burst into the waiting room. He saw the family. "Sorry, but I need to change her bandages."

"No need, doc! I'm alright!" Dr. Clever removed her bandages to prove there was no damage. And indeed, there weren't. "Can I leave?" she asked.

"I wouldn't advise that." A green changeling doctor said. "Look out the doors. You'll see what I mean."

Octavia looked out the hospital doors. An army of reporters instantly took several photos with blinding flashes of light. Octavia quickly ran back inside. "Okay. Lots of reporters, and a shield that seems to be blocking them but allowing people who actually need to hospital to come in. There's also a team of paramedics outside, I'm guessing in case a reporter hurts themselves to try to get in."

"Yamun would like to point out Dr. Clever still has glowing eye." Yamun said.

"That's also a problem we need to sort out. I'm Doctor Mint Leaf." the green changeling said. "I'm not sure why, but you have also developed an allergic reaction to gold. I believe this may be your inner magic reacting to the event that happened to you. I'm also surprised at how well you've heal. I will be blunt, that gold should have crushed even a full grown earth pony to death."

"Why are my booties still on?" Dr. Clever asked.

"We... couldn't remove them. They, along with your bowtie, seem to have fused with you." Mint Leaf said.

Dr. Clever's eyes widened with all the others in the room. She then looked confused. "Hold up. Override spell sequence: Death grip; with override code: The danger is past" Dr. Clever removed the booties. "Ha! That failsafe actually worked!" She did a little jig. She tried to disconnect the bowtie. It had fused with her nerves completely. "Oh no." She tried ripping off the sonic bowtie. It hurt like she was pulling on her skin. "Nonononono. Doctors, is there a room I could talk with my fam in private?"

"Nocreature's in the third break-room. You can use that." Mint Leaf suggested. "Meanwhile, I need to call the cops to get rid of these reporters.

"Kay, thanks!" Dr. Clever said. The group proceeded to head to the break-room. Dr. Clever sat on the break-room table so she could see everyone. She still wore the hospital gown.

"Okay. Where to begin? Ah, yes. Cozy Glow? Please don't hate me, but you can never have your body back."

"Wait WHAT!? Why not?" Cozy Glow asked harshly. To her surprise, Dr. Clever put her arms over her head, as if she was shielding it.

"Sorry!" Dr. Clever squeaked. "I can't because I regenerated! It's no longer pony DNA! It's Time Lord now.... Mixed with Cyberman. That also probably means gold is now forever my weakness."

Cozy Glow tilted her head. "I get your 'DNA' changed, but why your attitude? Isn't still the same body?"

Dr. Clever shook her head. "No. Every cell in me changed it's DNA. Last time that happened, I gained a different personality. But occasionally the real me showed through. So.. maybe I'll show some of your personality? I really don't know. Oh god. Time Lord and Cyberman. I'm another Hybrid! Ha. Haha. HAHAHAHAHA!" Dr. Clever started crying and laughing.

"Why... Why is she doing that? Why is she sad and happy?" Tirek asked, clearly confused. 

Chrysalis whacked him on the back of the head. "You fool! Anycreature can clearly see she's acting out of shock and confusion!"

"I spent thousands of years tormenting others, and staying in prison. I'm not used to caring for someone and not knowing what to do." Tirek answered. "So what do we do?"

"Yamun suggest hug." Yamun climbed up onto the table. He hugged Dr. Clever. Soon, everycreature else was hugging her.

Mercy opened up his armor. "THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT." he said. He wiped a tear away from his eye.
*
TARDIS
*
The Doctor groaned. His wife kept bothering him about talking to Starswirl, who objected to the abuse of portals. "Well, sexy. Got any ideas?"

"I have an idea."

The Doctor whipped his head towards the other side of the console. There was an odd looking Cyberman head there. "Whoa whoa WHOA! What the hell are you doing in here!?"

"Irrelevant. Check your messages." the head said.

"Answer me! Who- no. What are you doing in here?" The Doctor said coldly.

"I am Handles. I am here to give you a message. To receive message: Check your messages." the head answered.

The Doctor kept his eye on the Cyberman head as he reached for the phone. "Play message."

"This is Ex-Agent Sweetie Drops of S.M.I.L.E. We have found a Dalek. It's grey with blue, rather then bronze. GET YOUR BUTT HERE NOW." The Doctor's eyes widened. "When was this sent!?"

"An estimate of: 4 months ago." Handles answered.

"And why are you here?"

"... Irrelevant."

"Tell me. Tell me NOW!"

"Irrelevant."

"Were we friends?" The Doctor asked. Was this a future friend, inside a head of steel?

"...The Time Lords went wrong. Something happened. Time has crashed. And you are wrong." Handles answered.

"What do you mean, I'm wrong?"

"Irrelevant. There is a Dalek of unknown origin. Initiating Sleep Mode."

"Really?"
*
MANEHATTEN HOSPITAL
*
Dr. Clever swung her legs over the waiting room table. The police were still struggling with the nosy reporters. "UGH! I wish we could get out of... here." She looked at a large silver cylinder nobody else noticed. "No. It can't be." She rushed over to it. Everyone watched her, confused. There was a note. "Merry Christmas.  With comfort, Handles." she read. 

"What is it?" Octavia asked.

"It's a freaking default TARDIS, that's what!" Dr. Clever said eagerly. "In other words, our way out! It's... well, I'll let you find out yourself." She opened the door. She backed up and ran inside. 

Tirek knew to expect the inside to be bigger. He smiled as he entered. The others followed.

Mint Leaf was confused. There was no physical way all of them could have entered that... thing. She watched in shock as it started to phase.

Dr. Clever frowned. "Why... Oh! I forgot to turn on the brakes!" The hum of the Tardis soon started. She giggled.

"Hello again, Doctor. I'm pleased to see you again." a low voice rang out. 

"House!? What? Actually, I probably shouldn't be surprised. Loads of impossible things have happened." Dr. Clever said. She pulled out the manual to the TARDIS. "Hmm... Rather then calling this the TARDIS, I should just call it the House."

Tirek looked around. Yamun was rooted to the floor. "Is bigger. Is bigger on in. Way bigger." he said.

Dr. Clever giggled. "That's actually kinda f- kinda cute. Excuse me." She turned towards the console. "Hi House! Ya not gonna try and kill us, are you?"

"Hm. As fun as the idea sounds, I would prefer you alive. In a sense, as pets." House answered. "Handles should be here. But I believe something has gone wrong."

"Handles is alive!? Let's go find him, God da- gosh darn it! Why do I keep on almost cussing and not cussing? Really? That. That is just weird for a regeneration."

Tirek moved out of the pants. "I presume we're moving?" he asked. The hum stopped with a thud. He looked out the door. "We're in Canterlot."

"Oh! That is almost perfect!" Octavia exclaimed. "We needed to be here for Vinyl's performance."

"Hm... This is like when I first began exploring the universe! I don't know any of the history here. This is so exciting!!!" Dr. Clever exclaimed. "Come on! Pull on your pants. Let's go!" Her wings buzzed in excitement.

Tirek watched. "I believe other than regenerating, there is more you wished to say."

Dr. Clever turned around nervously to face him. "W-what do you mean?"

"Cozy Glow, fly. Your wings should be fast enough know. The Doctor when regenerating gave up her ability to fly by making her wings be able to move too fast for actual lift. That allowed one last sync, so your wings can now fly fast enough for lift." Tirek said. He pulled back on the trousers. "And by the way, the Physic paper said my name was Lord Tirek of the Time Lord house. So our last name shall be Time Lord."

"You sir, are blunt and strait to the point. Now lets add a swimming pool and whatnot to the House. We'll head out tomorrow. Hey House! We got food, yeah?" Dr. Clever said.

"Yes, we do. You can add all those extra rooms you had in the TARDIS. They were quite pleasant."

"Yay! Let's go eat some food now." Dr. Clever said. They all proceeded to head to the kitchens of House. 

House hummed to himself. "This shall be interesting."

Questions? PUT THEM IN THE COMMENTS!
> Chapter 5: Time Lords in Canterlot
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cozy Glow hummed as she made her favorite cake. She had plans to share it with Dr. Clever. So far she knew that: 1, Mr. Clever was evil and 2, The Doctor was mostly good. So... "Would it be wise to make plans of taking over Equestria with Dr. Clever?"

"I would not suggest it. He can get quite angry. For instance Cozy Glow, he had me killed. But some might say I deserved such. And indeed, I did." The House said. He turned the oven on for his pet.

"Thanks. Can you eat? Dr. Clever said you eat TARDIS's once." Cozy Glow said as she put the cake in the white oven. "Also, we really need to redecorate. There's only white, grey and black."

The House thought for a moment. The Teacher spoke to him with the chalk board.

Tirek watched as Dr. Clever worked on something. She bopped him on the nose. "No peeking! I'm making presents!" she told him. Tirek shrugged and explored the halls using the Default TARDIS Reference Guide. He realized Time Lords had to speak English. Or Ponish, as it was now called. He found a control room.

"Isn't there only suppose to be one?" he asked himself. The room had many circles it the wall and many other things Tirek didn't know what to call. He saw a chalk board. A crimson pony with white hair was writing on it. "What a house eats." he read.

"A house, in a sense, eats people. They add to it's personality and significance as they live there. Makes sense?" House asked his pet.

"I guess?" Cozy Glow answered. She heard a ding. She opened the oven and found the cake was done. "Golly! That was fast." She took the cake out. "So. What would you have done if we weren't 'pets'?"

"You would be invaders of me, and therefore my playthings to break." The House answered. "Oh. Hello TARDIS. It seems I have a caretaker. Be sure to say hi to her. And don't worry. You will know her when you see her. And be careful in the halls. There seems to be a cat that wants to meet you, my precious mouse."

Cozy Glow wanted so badly to say she wasn't anypony's pet. But she was afraid what would happen if she told House off. He was a threat to the Doctor. So he had to be really bad. "Will..you keep me safe from the 'cat'?" she asked.

"Of course. It's being restrained to the halls, remember?"
*
Tirek watched in interest as the pony walked around the control room. "Hello. Who are you?" she asked as Tirek said the same thing. "I am Tirek/Teacher" The words overlapped. "Please stop talking at the same time as me. Why are you- alright I'm leaving."

"Don't go." she said. Tirek looked back. "I'm sorry. It's been so long since I've met someone else. That, or it's been only two seconds. Time is confusing. Have you seen The Caretaker?"

"No I haven't" the two said at once. "Why are you doing that?"

"I... I don't know. But I don't like the Dalek. Daleks are bad, but House has yet to kill it. Can you kill the Dalek please?"

"No." they said. "Goodbye. I'm heading out."
*
Cozy Glow finished frosting the cake. The frosting was white. She put the cake on her back. It almost fell off. "Ugh! I wish I could carry this with more EASE!" Cozy Glow shrieked as golden fire covered her. She now had a square, flat back. "D-did I just... change form?"

"Not quite, my little mouse. You only changed shape. And yes, there is a difference. Oh. It seems the library has returned. Never read the book on the Time War. For if you read The Doctor's name from it, he will kill you. Oh, and try not to run with a flat back. It will hurt your spine."

Cozy Glow poked her head out into the white hall. "We really need to redecorate this place." she said. Cozy Glow walked through the hall. She was nearing the control room, when she saw a blur down the hall.

"Nope! I'm not heading that way! Goodbye!" Cozy Glow quickly rushed in the control room. "Hey Dr. Clever? Send a message through the House. There's something loose in the halls."

"You do it! I'm going shopping! I may also be on the lookout for a new design for the exterior. Tirek! Wait for me!" Dr. Clever leaped onto Tirek's upper back. He shrugged her off.

"Don't do that." he said.

Dr. Clever frowned. "How can you be so nice and so cold? Make up your mind!" she said. Dr. Clever let out a giggle. "Chrysalis! Come with us! I want some advice picking out a dress."
*
TEN MINUTES LATER
*
"Shopping, shopping, we are shopping!" Dr. Clever sang in the shop. A few snobby ponies glared at her, but soon looked away after receiving glares from Tirek and Crystal Cake.

Tirek stood to the side of them, not really sure as of what to do. He sat down on a bench while Dr. Clever and Chrysalis gawked over dresses. "First time shopping with the wife?" a grey Earth pony stallion asked him. Tirek let out a grunt and crossed his arms. The stallion sat down beside him. "Same here. I keep looking for some fellow who actually knows what he's doing here. So far? No luck." The two sat awkwardly watching their wives and daughters roam through the sea of dresses. Tirek pulled out a chess set from his pants pocket. 

"Know how to play?" Tirek asked.

"A bit." the stallion responded.
*
Dr. Clever picked out a few dresses with a frown. "They're all really pretty, but they don't feel me." she said. "Ugh!" she complained, throwing her head back for dramatic effect. "Doesn't this place have pesky sell helpers who help you pick out dresses?"

Rarity's ears perked. She smiled and approached the mother and daughter. "Not many pesky ones here. You said you needed help?"

Dr. Clever looked towards the voice. She felt her hearts skip a beat and promptly fell on her rump.

ERROR TIME LORD MIND PONY MIND GROWN ERROR MIND CHILD CLASH ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR

"Hello. You must be Rarity. This is my daughter Clever. My name is Crystal Cake."

"It's a pleasure to meet you! Um, is your daughter alright? She seems to have froze." Rarity gave a look of concern towards the cloaked filly.

"Hm?" Chrysalis looked towards Dr. Clever. She let out a small laugh. "Oh my! Does somepony have a crush?" Dr. Clever gave a tiny nod, her face not looking away from Rarity's. Chrysalis let out another laugh. "I know you're a pretty fashionista, but it seems you even turn children!" She stopped and thought about what she just said. "Forget I said that. Please." she said with a grimace. "Tirek! Come over hear!"

"I'm busy!" Tirek's voice floated back. Rarity recognized that voice too well.

"We are in a dress shop for women! How can YOU be busy!?" Chrysalis and Rarity headed towards the source of the voice. Chrysalis walked back and poked Dr. Clever. "Come on."

Rarity looked at the minotuar. He had Tirek's voice and face. Was he Tirek, just disguised!? "Tirek honey, look! Clever's got a crush!" Crystal Cake sang.

Tirek muttered an "Uh-huh." not looking away from the chess board. The stallion was actually pretty good at the game.

Rarity stood awkwardly. She wasn't sure of what to do, and Crystal Cake's shouting was attracting much attention. She cleared her throat. "So... Should I help you find some good dresses?"

Dr. clever stared, before fiercely shaking her head. "Sorry about that! Yes, dresses and ignoring the last ten seconds!"

"Clever, honey. It was two whole minutes"

"IGNORING!" Dr. Clever shouted, still somewhat in a daze.

Rarity studied the filly. "To find the perfect dress, I shall need to see your hair. Please remove your cloak."

Tirek snapped to attention, almost knocking away the chess board. Dr. Clever pulled her hood tighter over her head. Chrysalis pulled Dr. Clever closer to her.

"So... The cloak stays. Got that." Rarity said.
*
"I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF THESE GARMENTS FOR YOUR SPECIES. THE MASS MAJORITY OF YOU NEVER WEAR CLOTHES. AND NONE OF YOU WEAR PANTS."

Octavia moved through the racks of clothing. "Well, a nice dress makes a mare feel really pretty." she answered.

"DO STALLIONS ALSO WEAR DRESSES TO FEEL PRETTY?"

"Well, yes. A few weird ones."

"WHY IS IT WEIRD?"

"Well, why would a man want to wear women's clothing?"

"I HAVE SEEN MANY WOMEN WEAR MAN'S CLOTHING, AND IT IS NOT DEEMED ODD. ADDITIONALLY, A TUX IS RATHER SIMPLE, OTHER THAN MATERIAL AND TRIM, WHILE DRESSES HAVE A FAR LARGER VARIETY OF STYLE."

"I... Well, I suppose you have a rather good point! Oh, I think I see Tirek." Octavia saw a set of rather large black horns with red at the bottom, over the racks of clothes. "Oh please don't be scared, Vinyl! We have Mercy to protect us, and The Doctor is trying to reform the villains." Vinyl frowned, but gave a sigh of acceptance. Octavia smiled.

Vinyl loved her roomie, but at times she had the craziest ideas. 'Guess it's only fair, as I drive her crazy.' she thought to herself. She noticed a glint of bronze in the back of the shop. She poked Octavia and pointed. "Oh very well. We'll head that way."
*
Rarity hummed as she looked through a rack of cloaks. She had learned from the simple dress ideas of Muad and made simple garments. "I must say, I feel like I've met you before." she said, picking out a light blue cloak with fancy golden trim. "Try this on." She levitated the cloak to the dressing room curtain. 'Poor dear. She's so shy.'

"I don't think so. Or, I don't remember. I kinda forgot alot of stuff, recently." Dr. Clever said, trying on the cloak. Rarity poke her head in. 

"Hmm... No, not quite." Rarity said. She looked for another cloak. "What made you forget?" she asked, picking out a black cloak with a white leaf pattern. She levitated that to the curtain, picking up the blue cloak.

"Incident including being buried by gold. Not as fun as it sounds." Dr. Clever responded, pulling the cloak over her shoulders. The hood caught on the bottom of her hairdo.

"Oh my! That was you?" Rarity said, poking her head in. She froze. "COZY GLOW!" she screamed. 

"Well sh- well crap." Dr. Clever gulped. 
*
"AHHH!" "UGHGHH!" Octavia and Vinyl screamed at the bronze dalek, Vinyl letting out more of a loud and long grunt. The Dalek had just killed a dragon. "DALEK!!!" The Dalek began blasting wildly, setting many thing on fire.

"EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!!!

Mercy rushed as fast as he could to save his friends. "HALT!" he shouted at the bronze Dalek.
*
Rarity saw fire build up in her shop. She looked back at Cozy Glow, only to find that she was gone. Rarity ignored that fact and focused on helping everycreature out. 
*
TARDIS
*
The Doctor ran around the console, piloting it. "Alright, Handles! How do I know you?"

"Please flip the blue lever."

"No! What blue lever?"

"You suck at piloting."

"Oi! Hold up, I thought Cyberman couldn't do that sort of talk?"

"I am advanced and armed with as much sass as Amelia."

"I'm sorry? Who?"

Sweetie Drops held on to the bars of the room for dear life. "Doctor, don't you have any stabilizers!?" she shouted. Her wife, Lyra, was shouting with joy at how the TARDIS was driving.

"No, I don't!" The Doctor shouted back.

"Yes, you do. Oh. Never mind. This TARDIS console is the wrong module." Handles said calmly. "We will arrive in Five Four Three Now." There was a thud as the Tardis landed. It then crashed.
*
Tirek and Chrysalis were running to the TARDIS. "Wait, where's Dr. Clever!?" Tirek asked. He looked back and saw the cloaked Clever helping creatures get out. A blue box-like TARDIS crashed in through the roof of the building. Outside of the building were poorly disguised TARDIS's.
*
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN, HALT. EXPLAIN. EXPLAIN!" The Dalek moved away as a Tardis crashed. "ALERT! IT IS THE DOCTOR!"

The Doctor rushed out. "Stop, you Dalek! That sounded cooler in my head. Anyways, STOP!"

"I WILL NOT STOP! WHO ARE YOU?" The bronze Dalek demanded.

"Look at this world's history and your own. Every Alien that invaded this planet and Earth. Who was there to stop them?" The Doctor asked, anger in his voice. The bronze Dalek found the records. He showed those that had invaded. The Doctor stopped them every time. Up to the 10th. In this world, a pony stopped them every time. Every single time. "I'm the Doctor. And I got a message for-"

"INCORRECT! YOU ARE NOT THE DOCTOR!" Mercy proclaimed. He sent out a hologram of all the Doctors. All three of them. Four, adding the pony form of Cozy Glow.

The Doctor stared at the grey Dalek. "That...That can't be right. You're an early Dalek. Your armor is shaped like a salt shaker, for crying out loud!"

"THAT IS RACIST! APOLOGIZE!" Mercy shouted. 

"And is that emotion in your voice!? It went up AND down, like a creature with feelings could."

"I DO FEEL! I DO!"

The bronze Dalek moved forward. "WHY ARE YOU NOT EXTERMINATING? EXPLAIN!"

Mercy charged his blaster. "I WILL PROTECT MY FRIENDS! I WILL PROTECT. PROTECT!"

"Everyone, SHUT UP!" The Doctor yelled. The bronze one moved back in fear. The grey one remained still. "You. Grey Dalek-"

"MY NAME IS MERCY IRONSIDE AND I WILL BE TALKED TO AS AN EQUAL!" Mercy shouted angrily. He lowered his voice. "I APOLOGIZE FOR MY OUTBURST."

The Doctor shook his head in unbelief. "Okay, you are an old Dalek, but your armor has been upgraded. You're moving without static." He aimed his sonic at the Dalek. "And you have thrusters and a strong shield system. Though that's busted. How- wait. Handles, a sarcastic Cyberman. You, a dalek with emotions. Is there another Time Lord as well?"

"Halt, Dalek! Leave in peace or suffer the wrath of Doctor Clever, for I am The Doctor!" Dr. Clever leaped and landed in front of the bronze Dalek, a hum coming from from her bowtie while her eye glowed a blood red. "Mercy, run. For I am going to tear this dalek's hide apart then make sure it isn't just broken, but truly Dead." She hunkered down slightly, the hum turning to a heavy buzz. "And do you know why, Mista Dalek? Because you killed someone. So, I-"

"Excuse me, who the hell do you think you are!?" The Doctor shouted. Dr. Clever whipped her head towards The Doctor. Her bowtie stopped buzzing and her eye changed back to blue. "Wait a minute... YOU WIPED MY MEMORY! HOW THE HELL-"

"Because the universe is fu-flipping out. Now sit back, AND SHUT UP!" Dr. Clever shouted.

"EXTERMINATE!" The two Doctors jumped away from the bronze Dalek, and were surprised as it blew up. "DISINTEGRATE!" With that, the bronze Dalek was killed. A default TARDIS crashed next to the Doctor's Tardis.

Tirek poked his head out as the ceiling began to crack from fire damage. "Come on, get in!"

The Tardis doors open. "Doctor! Do not forget me!"

Rose Luck held the head, keeping it from leaving. "Doctor! It wants you!"

"Handles!" Dr. Clever ran inside the Tardis and bit Rose on the leg, making her release Handles. Dr. Clever picked him up and ran to the doors. "Bye sexy I'll see you later!"

Rose slammed the doors shut. "You're not going anywhere, Cozy Glow." she said firmly. The doors burst open, sending Rose flying towards the console. 

"Thank you sexy!" Dr. Clever said with joy. The Tardis gave a hum of approval. She rushed out and entered The House. "Lets get the the f- the hell out of here!" she shouted. Dr. Clever tossed Handles to Vinyl, who let out a grunted scream and dropped him.

"I believe you were to catch me." Handles explained. Vinyl screamed again as the ceiling cracked and collasped. She closed the doors to prevent the fire from getting in. Vinyl then proceeded to hug Octavia and hyperventilate.

Dr. Clever ran around the console, flying rather then "whoosing" away. "HAHAHAHA! Hold on tight, because I forgot which lever is the stabilizers!"
*
"Doc, they're getting away." Ditsy said, watching the screen.

"Yeah thanks I can see that." The Doctor answered, somewhat angrily.

"I think we should let them." Ditsy continued.

"And why is that?" The Doctor asked. He and Rose Luck stared at Derpy.

"Because The Tardis let Cozy Glow escape." Ditsy pointed out. "I think she wants-"

"Derpy. Shut. Up. My Tardis wouldn't-"  The Tardis shook, the cloister bells ringing, and it traveled. "Where are you taking us!?"
*
OUTSIDE THE DRESS SHOP
*
Rarity ran through the streets. she had to get to the castle. She had to tell Twilight.

Lyra and Sweetie Drops followed Rarity. The Tardis kicked them out for some odd reason and they escaped the flames with The Element of Generosity.

The Time Lords watched as Rarity ran by. Lord Rassilon grinned. "It seems Generosity is afraid." He turned to the ponyfied Time Lord near him with a frown. "I thought I told to burn up your rooms, not use the mirror portals."

"Sorry, Lord President! My team and I had a default Tardis. No extra rooms to use for fuel."

Rassilon slowly shook his head. "Do you know how to grab with your hooves?"

"I don't believe that can be done, Lord President."

"That is where you are wrong. I have already observed many ponies using their hooves in an impossible manner to grab cups. Lord General?"

A dark red dragon in armor exited the defualt Tardis. "Yes, Lord President?"

"Take your team and see where The Doctor has gone."

"Which Doctor, Lord President?" Kenossium asked.

Rassilon thought about this. "Find the one that has lived here the longest. Ready the testimony. We must learn of what the Doctor knows of the Hybrid."

Kenossium gave a nod. He got his pilot team ready. "Time to find a Doctor."

> Chapter 6: Well that just happened.
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mercy Ironside stood silently in the hallway archway. Octavia walked up to Mercy Ironside. "You alright?" she asked.

"I...AM CONFLICTED." Mercy answered.

"Wanna... talk about it?" Octavia asked. Over by the console, Dr. Clever's ears perked up. 

"I AM A DALEK. I HAVE KILLED THOUSANDS IN COLD BLOOD, FOR JOY. YET, AFTER I HAVE KILLED THAT DALEK... I FEEL COLD. COLDER THAN A DALEK SHOULD. I FEEL SORROW. I AM CONFUSED. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND. DALEKS. DESERVE. DEATH!" Mercy paused, rotating so he didn't look at Octavia. "BUT I FEEL LIKE..."

"You feel sick, don't you." Dr. Clever hopped away from the console and towards Mercy. "You can slaughter anything, not even give a second thought." Her eye turned red, and a smirk formed on her face. "But the very moment you kill of of your own kind, you feel horrible. You feel disgusting. You feel like you have done something you never ever should have done." Mercy Ironside backed up in fear as Dr. Clever's eye darkened to blood red. "So do you know what that means?" Mercy was backed up against the end of the hall. Everyone was watching the two. "It means you have a heart." She put her hooves against Mercy's armor. "Like a child who has realized they've something wrong."

"PLEASE STOP!" Mercy cried out loud.

"Why should I?" Dr. Clever answered.

"I...I AM AFRAID."

"Of what!" Dr. Clever shouted, anger rising in her voice.

"OF KILLING YOU OUT OF FEAR. OF KILLING A FRIEND!"

"Bingo." Dr. Clever gave a fatherly smile. She hugged Mercy's amour, her nose squishing against it. "And that's what makes you such a good Dalek. You ain't afraid of me. You're afraid of your power." Dr. Clever backed away. Her eye turned back to blue. "And that's why you're my FRIEND!" 

A blur dragged Dr. Clever down through a door, down another hall. "HEEEELLLLP MEEEEEEE!" Dr. Clever shouted as she was carried off. It was then that she remembered what Cozy Glow had told her. "Something in the halls." she muttered as she was carried deeper into the TARDIS.

They all stood speechless. Cozy Glow blinked. "Well that just happened." she said.
*
TARDIS
*
The Doctor tied to steer the Tardis. But something was interfering. Sparks flew from the console. "Doc! What's happening!?" Ditsy shouted in fear.

"I don't know! And I don't like not knowing!" The Doctor shouted back. The cloister bells continued to ring. "Hang on! We're gonna crash!"

Rose screamed as the doors opened, air pressurizing. "Doctor! The shields are gone-"
***
**
*
The Doctor raised his head. His eyesight was blurry. All he could hear was a ringing. In his mouth was the slight taste of blood. He saw a shape being dragged away. It was grey with yellow at the top and bottom. "Derpy." He pulled himself forward. "Derpy!" The Doctor groaned. He tried again, and fell unconscious.
*
LATER
*
"Hey wake up and shove off!"

"H-huh?" The Doctor blinked shakily. He then shook his head like crazy as water was dumped on him. "Oi!" He looked up and saw an angry and annoyed griffin. He bolted upright and pinned the griffin against the alleyway wall. "Where am I?" The Doctor asked angrily.

The griffin was no longer annoyed. He was now scared. "Don't 'urt meh! I'll tell yeh wot ya want!"

"I was in a flying capsule in Canterlot. It went out of control and crashed. I saw my friend Derpy Whooves, aka Ditsy Do, being dragged off. I don't know where my wife is. And I've waken up by someone dumping a bucket of water on my head. So you can guess I'm REALLY in a bad mood, yes?"

"Y-yup!"

"So." The Doctor cleared his throat and softened his eyes, but didn't lose the steel in his voice. "Can you answer where I am?"

"Bad Wolf Casino! Las Pegesus!" The griffin quickly said.

The Doctor quickly dropped the griffon. "Did you just say bad wolf?" The steel in his voice was gone.

"Aye, I did." The griffin answered, rubbing his throat. "I found ya in the alley and thought ya was a dead beat or drunkered."

"Here's who I am." The Doctor flashed his psychic paper to the griffin.

"'Oly Tadoodly! Pardon my mouth! Ya the High Priest of The Celestial Church!? Sorry, ya grace!" The griffin bowed low. "Forgive meh for asking, meh lord, but what ya doing clubbing?"

"Looking for my friends. Now then, I'd like to enter. Ask around. See if anycreature has seen a grey pegesus with blonde hair, bubbles for a cutie mark, and crooked yellow eyes. And an Earth pony with a buttermilk coat with red hair and a rose for a cutie mark. Both are female."

"Of couse, ya grace! 'Ere, we'll enter the front way, rather then da back." The griffin got back up.

"Oh, and one more thing. Pretend I'm just some high random person or such, rather then The High Priest, alright?" The Doctor said, following the griffin. He noticed it was night.

"What should I introduce ya as?" the griffin looked over his shoulder, but didn't stop walking.

"As The Doctor. Simply that. The Doctor."

"Alrighty then. I know ya wanna find your friends, but ya gotta have a proper look at the front."

"Very well." The two walked out onto the street. The Doctor had to admit, the front was impressive. It was designed like someone had taken the old American west of the 1800's and mixed it with the Time Lord cities. There was also a hint of Dalek agriculture in the design. "Wow. That is impressive" The Doctor watched as a holographic projection projected a studded BAD WOLF CASINO with a poker chip for the Os and two wine glasses for the W. The I looked odd, but The Doctor didn't quite know why.

"Yup. Bad Wolf Casino. Best food you'll ever 'ave in yer life. Fancy, and actually tasty. You fancy meat?" The griffin walked to the wide red double doors, which seemed to have windows resembling Cyberman eyes.

The Doctor followed. "Meat? There is finally a place that serves meat?"

The griffin gave a large grin as they entered. "Yup. Now then, what do ye think of the lobby?"

The Doctor stared wide eyed. For the lobby, it was like someone had taken the beauty of Gallifrey cities and Skaro cities, then let Father Christmas dump his bag on everything. "Wow. This is not even of this universe."

The griffin tilted his head in confusion, before smacking it. "Where are me manners!? Charlie Jacksmith. Waiter." He extended a claw, before pulling it back. "Ye can have a look around, The Doctor."

The Doctor nodded, before entering a dinning area. He saw gambling machines at the sides. It seemed less space-y, and more strait up casino-y. He sat down at a table. He wanted to find his friends, but he had no clue where to start. "No Tardis, no clue where my friend and wife are..." The Doctor let his head drop to the table with a loud thud. It hurt his muzzle.

"Hello, your grace. Can I take your order?" The Doctor looked up at a yak with combed hair and amber eyes. "Ruddy disguise, by the way. All yah did was change your color and your hair style."

The Doctor grinned, before shrugging and lifting his head. "Sorry. You have mistaken me for somecreature else. My name is The Doctor."

"Ah! So you've taken that name again. No, wait. This is you before you became high priest!" The yak looked away, a look of disappointment on his face. He shook his head as singing began to float through the room.

"♪Oh baby, you left me with a broken heart♫"

The Doctor shook his head. "Sorry? No, I'm just looking for my friends and wife. No clue where to begin looking."

"♪But now I'm ripping the pain apart!♫"

A security guard with the appearance of a Night Royal Guard came over and sat down. "I'm on break. Sorry, you said you looking for someone? Ya ain't from the TARDIS Casino, are ya?"

"♪You thought I'd come crawling back to you♫"

"No. I didn't even know that was a thing. Now, I want to speak to the boss of this place. Please." The Doctor said. "By the way, whoever is singing, WOW he have a grand voice."

"♪Baby I ain't coming back to you!♫"

The waiter stood back and watched the two. "Why ya wanna see the boss?" the guard asked roughly, crossing his arms.

"♪I'm exterminating the pain you left me!♫"

The Doctor leaned over the table. "Because nothing normal or of this planet stops a Tardis. The words Bad Wolf hunt me everywhere. This club or casino or whatever? Chances are, it's not run by anything of this planet. The very designs are of another world. Maybe, just maybe of another universe. So, I want to talk to the boss. Question them. And if they have done anything to Rose or Derpy, I will hurt them."

"♪For my rage is making me rather feisty!♫"

"Just who the dark realm do you think you are!?" the guard snarled, baring his sharp teeth.

"♪I've become a big bad wolf♫"

The Doctor leaped onto the table. "I'm The Doctor!" he shouted in the face of the guard. Silence filled the room.

"D-did you just say you were The Doctor?" the voice from the stage asked in a tone of fear.

"Yes I did-" The Doctor looked up and dropped his jaw in shock. On the stage was a rusty Dalek. It was dark green and seemed to be wearing a WW2 helmet with the British flag on its hide. The helmet was painted silver and the balls on the armor were replaced with baseballs. It was the Dalek who sang. The Doctor also realized why the I looked odd. It was designed like a Dalek.

For moments, the Dalek and The Doctor stared at each other. "AHHHHHHHH! It's The Doctor! Execute code Predator!" Multiple large dragons rushed on stage and carried off the Dalek. "Inform the boss!" 

The Doctor leaped up from the table towards the stage. "You're not getting away that easily!" He turned his sonic to amplifier. "All Celestial Guards and S.M.I.L.E agents in the area! Code Blue! I repeat, Code Blue!"

Throughout the building, the call was heard. And it was answered by twenty ponies, four dragons, and two griffins rushing into the room The Doctor was in. 

A reddish griffin addressed his comrades. "You three, go with the king of England! You five, with me. The rest of you, protect the King and his comrades. Move out!"

HOUSE
*
Tirek held a sword in his right hand, a pistol in his left. He had removed his suit, but kept the tie on so he was strong. He looked down a corridor. 

"Looking for something?" House asked.

"Yeah, looking for the Doctor. You seen her?" Cozy Glow asked.

"I have. It seems the cat can move about the rooms now. I suggest you be careful, my little mouse."

TESTIMONY ERROR ERROR ERROR
*
Mr. Clever stepped out of the teleportation chamber. No, not Mister. Doctor. Dr. Clever shook her head. She seemed to be in a stone castle of sorts. She looked out the windows and saw a circular structure forming a ring around the tower she was in. "Huh? How'd I get here?"

The Doctor stepped out of the teleportation chamber. He looked at his hands. "This is wrong" he said.

Dr. Clever stared at the 12th Doctor. "Did something happen?" she asked.

12th frowned. "No. There is no reason we should be here. I don't recall..." he stopped and felt the stone walls. "No. Nononono. Not this. Not again."

Dr. Clever tilted her head. "I don't remember this place. The gold ERROR whipped alot of my memory. But I do know we fused. But now we're not. And I feel fear. ERROR And I keep seeing moments repeating. Just small changes. A lot of stuff seems to be different the first time. ERROR Ugh! I don't see any gold on me!"

The 12th Doctor dragged his hands down his face. He inspected a screen and saw the side of his head down a hall. "Oh sh-"

"Don't cuss!" Dr. Clever shouted. "And what's so bad about... Doc. Doc, look. Looklooklook." She tugged on his coat. A decaying blue ram with dead eyes was walking beside a walking dead cloaked women with flies.

12th looked. "Oh. Great, there's two nightmares after us." He bent down and picked up Dr. Clever. "Alright, we're running." And so he ran. He came to the end of the hall, where two doors were. They wouldn't open.

Dr. Clever squirm out his arms and hit against the doors. "Nononononononono! I don't wanna die! Help! Someone help me! Anybody!" The doors opened, showing a stone wall.

"We need a confession." The 12th Doctor said. He turned around and saw the ram right in front of him.

"OkayIConfess!" Dr. Clever shouted. The ram halted with the sound of gears. She gulped. "I confess that I'm afraid and that I feel shame from it! I'm ashamed of feeling helpless and scared. I confess!"

The whole room shook as the whole place shifted. An opening was pulled to the doorway. The 12th Doctor and Dr. Clever quickly rushed through and tied the door handles shut. The two then looked at the room. It was a bedroom.

The 12th Doctor rushed to where the painting should have been. It wasn't there. "My head hurts." Dr. Clever complained. Her bowtie hummed.

The 12th Doctor paced around the room. "This is wrong. Very wrong. I should be you. But now I'm not."

"I... Oh. I'm getting billions years old memory hear. It's being edited so I don't burn out. It seems I- you- we? I dunno- had been stuck here, the first times being somewhat different. The skull effected your movement. It's all rather complicated." Dr. Clever scratched her head. "We already know where to go. So, let's get there."

"Door's blocked." The 12th Doctor said.

"Storeroom. We're going to enter the storeroom." Dr. Clever looked at the window in fear. "I don't wanna die!" 

The 12th Doctor examined the blank canvas. "There should be a painting."

The doors burst open. Dr. Clever jumped out the window, shattering it. The 12th Doctor followed her. The two fell to the water. 
*
STOREROOM TARDIS
*
The two rushed into the Tardis. It was the 12ths, but in shades of black and white. The 12th rushed to the console. "We survived, Clara and... pony. Go on. Ask us how we survived."

The sound of scribbling filled the air. 

Slow down.

The Doctor nodded. "I know. We are slowing down.

Slow down and LOOK!
She's panicking
*
FALLING
*
The Doctor quickly used his momentum to face upward. Dr. Clever was screaming as she fell. The Doctor spun back to the water. Brace yourself!" he shouted. Dr. Clever went silent. He suddenly felt something pull him up. A burnt corpse of Dr. Clever hit the water.

"NOOOOOOO!!!" The Doctor's face twisted with rage. He looked up at what had caught him and saw the ram had grew wings. It sent him gently at the water edge, a wicked sneer on its face. 

"You are now alone. No one can save you now." It spoke in a heavy voice. It flew back up to the broken window.

The Doctor glared as it flew. "If you think because she's dead I'm weak, then you understand very little. If you were any part of killing her, and you're not afraid, then you understand nothing at all. So for your own sake understand this... I am the Doctor. I'm coming to find you, and I will never, ever stop." The Doctor proceeded to remove his coat, then dived into the waters. There were no skulls. Just Dr. Clever.

BAD WOLF CASINO

"Boss! We gotta get you outa here!" A guard had burst into the personal office of Lobo. He was facing his window from behind his desk.

Lebro turned around. "WHY? EXPLAIN!"

"Because I'm here." The Doctor entered the room. What he saw surprised him. An Imperial Dalek was behind the desk. The gold colored bits of it were plated with actual gold, along with a golden bow tie. The white of the body had silver lines going down, like a pinstripe suit. Along the lengh of it's eye stalk were several diamond rings. There was a solid circle of sapphire and lapis studded around the very eye. "Wot."

Lobo proceeded to fly up two inches, then rocketed backwards, shattering the wall and flying in the air of the streets of Las Pegesus. The Doctor could see that the usual orbs on a dalek were replaced with orb shaped rubies and emeralds. "PROTECT THE VAULT! KILL THE ANGEL OF DALEKS! PROTECT THE ABOMINATION! PROTECT!"

The Doctor blinked. He then turned to the guard. "Right then! My pals will be here in about ten seconds, so lead me to the vault because neither of us want guns."
*
HOUSE
*
"Hello there. I'm glad you've returned. Oh, but you've brought the dalek here."

Tirek and the Teacher let out a sigh. "Teacher, do you know what took The Doctor and where she was taken?" the two asked.

"The Doctor was rescued by the Time Lords and put in Hell. As for what took her..." The Teacher picked up some chalk and walked to the blackboard. "Evolution." She wrote the word and looked back at Tirek. "There are perfect Hunters." She drew a cheetah. "There are creatures with the perfect defense." She drew a puffer fish. "Question. Why is there no such thing as a creature that's perfect at hiding?" She let her gave travel to the small changeling.

Cozy Glow realized the white haired Cheerilee was wanting an answer. "Because-" Cozy Glow stopped as the Teacher matched her lips perfectly. "Because they already exist, but they're too good at hiding?" they asked.

"Correct." The Teacher whipped the board. "There are two of them in The House. Two different species of creatures evolved to be perfect at hiding. What would they do?" She walked towards the control console in the room. "Follow me." She said, looking back at the group. "Except for the Dalek."

"Don't be racist." Octavia and The Teacher said. The two stared at each other.

"No. Not correct." The Teacher stated. "Look. We are all here, around the console, yes?"

"Yes. I'm sorry, but I don't see what this has to do with literally ANYTHING!" Chrysalis and The Teacher shouted.

"But think about it. If you were perfect at hiding, at moving unnoticed, what would you do?"

The chalk hit the floor. The all turned to look and saw two messages on the chalk board. One was written in chalk. Listen. There was a more noticeable message beneath. One cut into the chalk board. KILL

House let out a laugh. "It will hunt you now. Hunt it first. I'll even help you survive some things. Be careful. I do not need The Caretaker cleaning you up. Have fun."

Rassilon marched over to Kenossium. He grabbed the dragon by his cape. "I told you do go after the Doctor that has been here the longest!" Rassilon shouted in his face.

"Lord President! I did! The Doctor we captured is over two-thousand years old. The other is only in his eight-hundreds." Kenossium did his best to remain calm, and not show fear.

Rassilon released him. "That can't be right." He turned to others in the Tardis. "You three! Check the system. It must have a fault!"

Kenossium cleared his throat. He winced as Lord Rassilon glared at him. "I'm sorry to say, Lord President, but the machine does not have a fault. It has already been checked seven times. And... I fear we have another problem."

"And what is that?" Lord Rassilon shouted. "My patience is being tested!"

"The Doctor claims he has already been is his confession dial." Kenossium brought up the screen.

TESTIMONY

The Doctor walked out of the water, carrying Dr. Clever. "Come on, COME ON!" He kicked open the door and layed Dr. Clever by the fireplace. "Come on! I'm still alive! So you have to be!"

Dr. Clever let out a gasp. "One and a half." she said quietly.

"One and a half what?"

"Days." Dr. Clever looked at her hooves. They were faintly glowing. Then they stopped.

A fly buzzed over to the pair. The Doctor got up and stomped over to the Nightmare. "I already confessed what I know of the Hybrid last time I was here! What more do you want from me!? And who the hell was the blue ram? Well?" The thing slowed. "WELL?" The ram ran into the room, past The Doctor and grabbed Dr. Clever.

"AAHHHHHHHGH!" Dr. Clever screamed in agony, then went limp. "I confess!" she managed to utter. The ram stopped with the sound of gears, then stepped away. 

"It is too late for that." The ram said.

"I...I confess." Dr. Clever gave a weak grin as her left eye dimmed to black. "I confess..." There was a loud buzz filling the air. But not from flies. "I confess this whole time I've been backing up all my energy into a single sonic blast directed towards you." A golden blast left Dr. Clever's bowtie towards the blue ram, blasting half of it's face off.

"AUGH! STUPID TIME LORD!" Gears were shown beneath it's skin. A gear fell out, and it ran off. A second blast blew the Nightmare out the window and into the water.

"Suc...sess..." Dr. Clever looked towards the Doctor. "You know what you must do."

The Doctor shook his head. "I don't." 

Dr. Clever frowned. "We're still connected. Feel your hearts. You won't feel your left one beat." The Doctor reached towards his chest. Indeed, his left heart did not beat. "I won't die until you do. Until then, you'll be slowly dying. We are both dying. Getting slower. We are wasted. But the DNA copy in the teleport..."

The Doctor finally saw what he needed to do. He picked up Dr. Clever. "Let's do this."

Dr. Clever let out a weak chuckle. "Alonsy!" she said.

BAD WOLF CASINO
*
The Doctor and his comrades were led to the Vault. It was an iron door with a simple seeming lock on it in a backroom. The surprise came when the guard opened the vault door. A huge room, like a staduim, existed. It was filled with Daleks. The entrance door was at the top, looking out at all the Daleks. A slope led down to the clearing at the bottom. And lying on the ground, dressed in an Arabian princess style clothing, was Rose Luck.

"Rose!" The Doctor began to run down a slope. A bronze Dalek dressed in black robes with a white collar zoomed in front of him. It hovered in the air.

"YOU, Angel OF The Emperor, shall not approach The Abomination. Unless she give you divine permission." The Dalek said. It spoke with the harshness of the Dalek voice system. 

"To HELL with divine permission! You're not gonna stop me!" The Doctor shouted in rage. 

"WORSHIP HER!" A nearby Dalek shouted. This caused the Doctor to halt.

"Wot?" he asked, confused. Every Dalek turned to stare at him. Some even left their seats.

The Daleks began screaming at him. "WORSHIP HER!" "PRAISE HER!" "WORSHIP THE ABOMINATION!" "WORSHIP! WORSHIP!" "WORSHIP ROSE LUCK TYLER!"

"Silence." A simple, quiet voice spoke out. Every Dalek immediately quieted.

The Doctor stared at the one who spoke. It was Rose. "Allow The Angel Of The Emperor to approach. And call him The Healer. For when my heart was scarred, he healed it. For he is my husband."

The Dalek dressed like a priest gave a nod with his eye. It then turned to the Doctor. "YOU MAY APPROACH." it said. The Dalek moved out of the way.

The Doctor walked down the slope to his wife. He paused in front of her. "Why are they... worshiping you?"

Rose Luck raised herself so she was in a sitting position. "They think I'm some kind of god. One I thought you might know? They kept calling me Rose Tyler."

The Doctor sat down beside her. "Yes, she was someone I once knew. She married a double of me. Still was me and everything, but was my hand. Really long story that I once told Derpy." The Doctor paused and turned his head, looking around. "Where is Derpy?"

Rose Luck stood on her feet. "As savior of your kind, The Mercy Giver, I ask of you all this question. Do any of you know where a cross-eyed, grey fur, yellow haired pegasus is?"

The singer Dalek raised his right arm. "Oh great Mercy Giver who is Rose Tyler, The Abomination, I have seen such a pony."

"What is your name?" Rose asked, getting up and walking up the ramp. Every Dalek watched her as she appraoched the rusty green Dalek. He shook in fear. Rose gave a small smile and looked the Dalek strait in the stalk. "Please tell me your name." she asked.

"It.. It is Micheal Jackson." The Dalek answered.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Rose turned her head and glared down at her husband. "I'm sorry! I just wondered where I heard that voice before. I must say, that is just hilarious-"

"Doctor, stop being racist."

"Wot?"

Rose looked away from the puzzled Doctor and towards Micheal. "Where exactly did you see Derpy? She's the grey mare."

Micheal shook. "The... The Cybermen took her as bait. For the Doctor.

"Wot." The Doctor said angrily.

The Doctor brought the wires to his head. He cleared his throat with a cough and rested his hand on the lever. "As you come into this world, something else is born. You begin your life, and it begins a journey, towards you. It moves slowly, but it never stops. Wherever you go, whatever path you take, it will follow. Never faster, never slower. Always coming. You will run, it will walk. You will rest, it will not. One day, you will linger in the same place too long. You will sit too still or slip too deep. And when, too late, you rise to go, you will notice a second shadow next to yours. Your life will then be over."

"Lovely bit of poetry, Doc." Dr. Clever was lying on the floor, behind the Doctor. "Pull it."

Mr. Clever stepped out of the teleportation chamber. No, not Mister. Doctor. Dr. Clever shook her head. She seemed to be in a stone castle of sorts. She looked out the windows and saw a circular structure forming a ring around the tower she was in. "Huh? How'd I get here?"

The Doctor stepped out of the teleportation chamber. He looked at his hands. "This is wrong" he said.

Dr. Clever stared at the 12th Doctor. "Did something happen?" she asked.

12th frowned. "No. There is no reason we should be here. I don't recall..." he stopped and felt the stone walls. "No. Nononono. Not this. Not again."

Dr. Clever tilted her head. "I don't remember this place. The gold ERROR wiped alot of my memory. But I do know we fused. But now we're not. And I feel fear. ERROR And I keep seeing moments repeating. Just small changes. A lot of stuff seems to be different the first time. ERROR Augh! I don't see any gold on me!"

The 12th Doctor dragged his hands down his face. He inspected a screen and saw the side of his head down a hall. "Oh sh-"

"Don't cuss!" Dr. Clever shouted. "And what's so bad about... Doc. Doc, look. Looklooklook." She tugged on his coat. "It's a skull."

The 12th Doctor rushed away from the screen and towards the skull. He stopped and looked behind the teleport console. "There's a body here. Yours."

Dr. Clever rushed over to the body. "SHI-CRAP!" She poked her dead face. "Wait a minute... I can transfer data!" Dr. Clever put her forehead against her own. She extracted the most recent data from herself. "Oh. Oh daaaaaannnnng!"

"Nice save." The Doctor said. "Now we just need to save our selves from that." The 12th Doctor pointed at the creature of his nightmares. A broken rotting blue ram followed behind it. "Oh. Great, there's two nightmares after us." He bent down and picked up Dr. Clever. "Alright, we're running." And so he ran. He came to the end of the hall, where two doors were. They wouldn't open.

Dr. Clever squirm out his arms and hit against the doors. "Nononononononono! I don't wanna die! Help! Someone help me! Anybody!" The doors opened, showing a stone wall.

"We need a confession." The 12th Doctor said. He turned around and saw the ram right in front of him.

"OkayIConfess!" Dr. Clever shouted. The ram halted with the sound of gears. She gulped. "I confess that I'm afraid and that I feel shame from it! I'm ashamed of feeling helpless and scared. I confess!"

The ram gave a wicked grin. "You already confessed that." It hissed. "And you know that."

"I confess that I am married and love River Song but that I feel so confused now that I'm in this form! I am reminded of when I became John Smith the teacher! My point is that I have feelings for Yamun that I keep trying to ignore because I feel like they're wrong and I don't know what to do!" The Ram didn't stop.

Dr. Clever beat against the stone wall as a fly buzzed around her head. She began to cry. "I confess I love Yamun!" The whole room shook as the whole place shifted. An opening was pulled to the doorway. The 12th Doctor and Dr. Clever quickly rushed through and tied the door handles shut. The two then looked at the room. It was a bedroom.

The 12th Doctor rushed to where the painting should have been. It wasn't there. "My head hurts." Dr. Clever complained. Her bowtie hummed.

The 12th Doctor paced around the room. "This is wrong. Very wrong. I should be you. But now I'm not."

"I got memory of what happened before from my other body. Seems like I got a plan. I'm currently adding to it."

The 12th Doctor examined the blank canvas. "Alright, what's your plan?"

Dr. Clever smiled and grabbed the chair. "Stay put. Ya remember of how we said that the thing wouldn't expect jumping out the window?" She walked to the side of the door. The doors burst open. The two creatures rushed in. Dr. Clever faced the wall at an angle, sitting in the chair. She released a sonic blast, propelling herself into the Ram and Fly Lady, sending both out the window. She clung to the window sill and pulled herself in.

"Oh." The 12th Doctor exclaimed.

"WHOO! I feel so ALLIIIIVE! Oh wait I forgot that he can fly. Time to run!"

HOUSE TARDIS LIBRARY
*
Cozy Glow wandered about the Library, keeping away from The Time War book. She was armed with a knife. "Okay... How do I fight against a creature that has never been seen?" Something tackled her.
*
Tirek walked through the House. "Why are there so many halls?" he grumbled. 

"I really don't know. But there shouldn't be this many." Chrysalis said beside him. The two had been wondering the halls for hours. "How do we kill something that has never been seen?"

Tirek groaned. "I really, really don't see how." Chrysalis began to laugh. Tirek gave a confused and somewhat annoyed look in return. "Why are you laughing?" he asked.

"You made a funny, and didn't even realize it!" Chrysalis answered. She began to laugh harder. "I just find that hilarious!" Chrysalis stopped laughing as a scream filled the air.

"That came from the library." Tirek said. The two ran to save Cozy Glow.
*
"Sooooooo! You all are a bunch of Daleks scattered through the world who can actually enjoy sniffing flowers and whatnot, calling yourselves Tieflings, who believed Rose Tyler spared you rather then seperating your atoms, alone with two who were saved from being disintegrated by the Supreme, who consisted of The Supreme Dalek, The Drone, The Scientist, The Strategist, and the Eternal. I can see what most of them are for, but Eternal? What's it's job?"

Lobo, owner of Bad Wolf Casino, sighed. "You ask too many questions. Please be quiet, Healer." He turned towards the wall he destroyed. "And I do not enjoy 'Sniffing Flowers'. No, I enjoy the shine and wealth of gold, silver, and JEMS." The final word, it said with Dalek passion.

"A Dalek-"

"Tiefling."

"A DALEK who understands money. Wot? How and why did you even begin to understand money?" The Doctor asked.

"It. Is. BEAUTIFUL." Lobo answered. Micheal approached Lobo. "SPEAK, SINGER OF DALEKS."

"We have found him. We have found the location of The Doctor."

"WHERE? WHERE IS THE DOCTOR! WHERE?"

"He, and multiple more Time Lords, are located at The Badlands where Dragons reside, in the time when ponies see them as blood thirsty beast, before Ambassador Spike ever went on the journey to meet them."

The Doctor took a step forward. "I'm sorry, wot?"

Lobo turned to him. "What are you asking?"

"What do you mean, you've found the Doctor?" the Doctor asked.

"The Doctor in not an enemy of The Tiefling. He is friends with a dalek called Rusty. The Dalek Killer. The Bad Dalek. The Doctor is his allie. We will rescue the Doctor from the Cyberplanner. Then, with his help, WE WILL ANNIHILATE EVERY LAST DALEK!"

"Well then, Alonsy!" The Doctor answered. "but first, where is my Tardis?"

HOUSE
*
Cozy Glow shook and cried in fear. She still was when Chrysalis and Tirek found her. Tirek was concerned; Tirek picked her up and cradled her in his arms, and said- "Stop."

Cozy Glow snorted out a laugh. "You are a bad father." she said, her tears stopping as she laughed.

"Once again, I've been a villain locked away for thousands of years. Fatherly skills do not exist for me." Tirek answered the filly.

"Did you see where it went?" Chrysalis asked.

Cozy Glow shivered. "No. But I saw what it looked like." Cozy Glow paused, fear growing in her eyes as she remembered it's every detail. "When you look at it, you know it should never be seen. That it never wants to be seen. And that it kills. When you get a good look, that's what you see. And... it looks like if you saw it, it would never want you to see again. Or breath again." She gasped. "It's gonna kill me. Sweet Celestia, it's gonna kill me!"

Tirek frowned. "Not if we kill it first."

Chrysalis gave a wicked grin. "So, one unseen thing that has been seen, versus the three most dangerous creatures of all Equestria? We'll win easily."

Mr. Clever stepped out of the teleportation chamber. No, not Mister. Doctor. Dr. Clever shook her head. She then gasped. The 12th Doctor also stared in shock. There was a pile of bodies and a pile of skulls. The skull on top read "It's time. Bird. Bodies."

"What. The. Fuuuuuuuuuuunky dance moves." Dr. Clever said. She inspected her bodies. There were thirteen of them. One was tattooed with the images of... pretty much just random stuff. On the forehead was the words "5. Really bored so 9 did this."

"We've been here awhile. That much can be seen. And we've seem to have left a message for ourselves." The 12th Doctor picked up his skull with the long message. He then looked at the back. "Thirteen. This is skull number thirteen."

Dr. Clever gained information from body 13. "Ohhhhh... I have a plan! Come on, we gotta get these down to room twelve. And not die. Oh! And Mistah Ram is here!" The two headed out to the hall. There was The 12th Doctor's Nightmare and a beat up clockwork machine that stood on four hooves. It had a large bell connected nto its neck and two huge horns. "It's not Time Lord. But the Time Lords also don't seem to mind it. it also seems to want me to... I only got two confessions left. Fun. Wowzah, I dunno what to do." Dr. Clever's face turned mischievous. "Actually, I do." Dr. Clever ran to one of her bodies and picked up a skull. "HEY FLY GIRL!" Using a built up sonic blast from her body, she fired the skull at 639 miles an hour. The Nightmare got sent out a window.

The Ram chuckled. "Oh Doctor, just give up."

The 12th Doctor was in the hall, while Dr. Clever was in the room. "Hey!" The 12th shouted. "Why not go after a scots man? Chase me instead of her!" He pulled out his sonic glasses. And concentrated. The thing had a bit of rotten flesh stuck to it's gears. It didn't repair.

The Ram ignored the Scots Man and focused on the Doctor. "Confess." He leaped and pinned her to the floor. 

"AH! OKAY OKAY I CONFESS!" Dr. Clever did her best to not make eye contact. "I confess..." She whimpered this. "I confess that I wanna kiss Yamun." With a blush, Dr. Clever covered her face with her hooves.

The Ram considered confession. It held much weight. The place shifted. "Not enough to spare you..." The Ram lifted it's hoof and brought it towards The Doctor's face, when a skull hit his head.

"I told you, why don't you chase me?" The 12th Doctor then shrugged. "You could have prevented this, ya know." 

"Prevented what?" The Ram looked towards the Scots Man. He then realized the Man had sonic technology on his face.

"Prevented this." Every body of Dr. Clever released a blast directed towards the ram, destroying it. "One down. Another to go." The 12th Doctor paused. "I haven't been complaining, have I? I'm Scottish, and I have yet to complain."

"Ah shuddup. Come on, we gotta open up the way. I've got the final confession ready, just in case."

Handles wandered the halls, using his wires as legs. It was hard to keep balanced, but he managed. "Scanning noise, scanning noise, scanning for something that is really good at hiding." He clambered past a biome room, before backing up to look in it. There was a lush forest. With a crack in the wall next to it. "SYSTEM ERROR: CRACK. WARNING WARNING- SOLUTION FOUND." 

Something tackled Handles. He wrapped around it and dragged it to the crack. It began burning as he began to melt. "WARNING. INTENSE HEAT. It seems this is the wrong sort of crack. Sending distress signal."
*
Cozy Glow looked at the blueprints. "So... Using Earth slash Dalek tech, we should be able to create a... suspension field or something?"

Chysalis looked at Cozy Glow and shrugged. "Not sure... With Dr. Clever, this would be far easier." 

Tirek opened his mouth to reply, when a blaring sound was heard. "What is that?" 

"Not sure. Let's find out." Cozy Glow said with a grin. Her wings buzzed in excitement.
*
Octavia calmly brushed Vinyls mane, having finally calmed down the mute mare, when a blare was heard. Vinyl let out a scream/grunt, before fainting. Octavia let out a sigh, shaking her head. "I swear, we need a vacation from this vacation." she and The Teacher said.

DRAGON BADLANDS: 19 B.L.R. (Before Luna's Return)
*
Rassilon paced around the room, before grabbing Kenossium. "Have we gotten any information yet? Anything at all?"

Kenossium cleared his throat, a slight sweat building up on his scales. "Lord President, we have yet-"

"Lord General! We have something to report." a Pilot spoke up.

Rassilon released Kenossium and marched to the Pilot. "What is it?"

"Princess Twilight has discovered our presence in the past, in the future. She is far more understanding of time travel then we first believed. And the Doctor... well, there's two of them, and they seem to be collecting the bodies of all the others from the past attempts."

Rassilon sighed. "Let me see."

TESTIMONY

"Bird!" Dr. Clever shouted with a grin. The tower view wasn't needed, but it was still fun to see the passage open. She giggled, before running, dragging Clever Body 4. She ran down the stairs and threw the body with the rest, seemingly placed randomly about in a half circle. "I think it's ready, doc!"

The 12th Doctor nodded. "Just in time too."  A fly buzzed around his head. He grinned and leaned against the Spantium wall, his back and left foot against it. He adjusted his sunglasses. "Hello Nightmare. We already know. And no more questions will be answered without being asked directly. You'll get nothing from me. Why? I'm not the Doctor anymore." He raised his hand and aimed his thumb left. "She is."

"Yup!" Dr. Clever said cheerfully, winking her left eye and sticking out her tongue. "So come on, Lord President. Ask your question, and I'll do my best to answer! Sound good?"
*
Rassilon stared at the screen. "Control the Nightmare. Halt it's movements. And General? Make sure we're not walking into a trap."
*
HOUSE
*
Octavia walked out the door and saw the source of the blaring. "Oh Celestia. HANG ON!" She rushed towards Handles and bucked him away from the crack. "Oh goodness that burns!" Octavia sat on her rump, away from the glowing crack, and attepted to cool her hind hooves by blowing on them. "Goodness gracious, that hurts!" She held her hooves close to her face and suckled on one in an attempt to cool it.

Cozy Glow buzzed down the hall. She screeched to a halt as she saw Octavia and Handles. "What happened!?"

Tirek came to a stop. He bent his forelegs and upper back to pick up Handles. "Why are you sucking on your hooves?"

Chrysalis skidded to a halt. She smirked as she saw Octavia. "Wow. This takes the expression 'having a hoof in your mouth' to a literal sense."

Octavia removed her hoof from her mouth. "I burned my hooves saving Handles. We need Dr. Clever to repair him." She attempted to get up, only to fall back down. "Ah ah ow! Somep-creature get me a bucket of ice!"

Tirek nodded, before running off. Cozy Glow looked at the pile of ash, then the crack. "Hey House?" Silence. "House. Your sweet little mousy is asking you a question." Cozy Glow looked upwards at the ceiling, a cute expression on her face. "Could you tell me what this crack is, and where the cat is?"

House let out a chuckle, the low sound echoing creepily through the halls. "That is a crack leading to my star. You shouldn't go near it. And as for the cat? It got a little too close. I would close up the crack, but I don't know how. I suspect I will be able to- hrk! No. No! Caretaker, stop! STOP! ST-" Silence.

Cozy Glow walked to the nearest door and began banging her head against it. "That's it. I give up. I give up on trying to understand what the Tartarus is happening at this point." Yamun quickly joined her by charging headfirst into the wall.

TARDIS CASINO FRONT
*
The Doctor looked at the front of the very blue casino. "Really? My Tardis is in there?"

Lobo nodded. "IT IS. BE CAREFUL, HEALER. AND MAY CELESTIA'S LIGHT SCREW YOU OVER."

The Doctor arched an eyebrow. "Hang on, aren't you supposed to be nice?"

"YOU HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT A JERK TOWARDS ME THE WHOLE TIME."

"Fair enough." The Doctor turned back towards the Tardis Casino. "It looks like your place, just blue. Who had the original design?"

"WE DO NOT KNOW."

"Lovely. Well then, I'll see you later Lobo."

The Doctor walked inside. The first thing he noticed was that there were invisible guards everywhere. He could feel that it was tech, not magic. "Hello? Security? I would like to speak to the leader of this place!"
*
SWEET APPLE ACRES
*
Granny Smith let out a sniff as she looked at her grave. She wasn't sad, but it seemed like she had a cold when ever she stood over her own body. The feeling left when she moved away from it. "I don get it. Why am I still here, but in there too?" She scratched her head in confusion. "Maybe I outo talk to de Doctor 'bout that feeling I've been gettin." she croaked. "Where is that Time Lord?" She rubbed her chin, before a puzzled look came across her face. "Hang on now, whatsa Time Lord?"
*
TESTIMONY
*
Dr. Clever smiled as the Nightmare halted. "So? Question's please!"
*
Rassilon moved towards the mic. "What do you know of the Hybrid?"
*
Dr. Clever's smile grew bigger. "That's what you kidnapped- foalnapped?- me for? You furicking jerks. You could have just invited me to talk about it or something. But golly! You thought it would be a good idea to trick me, and Me! Oh, and me I guess. Golly goodness me! That is a lot of me." Dr Clever brought her left hoof to her mouth and let out a giggle. "But you boy's messed up big time! I mean, come on! We're in a different universe then you intended, you messed up so badly." She said all this in a cheerful voice.
*
Rassilon held back a growl. "What do you know of the Hybrid?" he asked again.
*
Dr. Clever gave a smirk. "We've gone through this before. Last time you did it properly, on Gallifrey and everything. I was stuck for over four and a half billion years, because I never figured out until the last moment that I was suppose to talk about the Hybrid."
*
Kenossium cleared his throat, before speaking. "Doctor, may you please tell us about the Hybrid?" Rassilon shot Kenossium a confused glare.
*
"Lord General! Nice to hear you." Dr. Clever let out a yawn. "Because you asked nicely, I'll tell you. The Hybrid is not a Time Lord and Dalek mix. It is never said. Only that The Hybrid is of two warrior races." A dangerous grin formed on her face. "You wanted to know about the Hybrid? The one who will stand in the ruins of the Time Lords?" She let out a cruel laugh. A lazer formed from each Cozy Glow body, aimed at the Spantium wall.

The Doctor jumped out of the way. "History lesson kids! Once upon a time, in this world, the Pegesi were a warrior race!"

Dr. Clever began laughing like a maniac as the Spantium wall blew open. "I AM THE HYBRID! I AM PEGESI AND TIME LORD! AHAHAHA!"
*
"Get the Nightmare on her right now!" Rassilon shouted.
*
The Nightmare lunged for Dr. Clever. She grinned, leaping headfirst into it's chest. She used enough force to send it flying. "YAK SMASH!" She then ran up to the 12th Doctor, jumped, and fist bumped him. "Come on Doc, let's get out of here."
*
Rassilon turned to Kenossium. "Get. Me. TWILIGHT!" he roared.
*
TARDIS CASINO
*
The Doctor ran though the obstacle course as he punched another enchanted dummy, trying to stay in first place. Turns out the owner of the place was a Yak, who would only give back the "Big Blue Box" if the Doctor could beat him in a race. Turns out the race wasn't just a simple run. "HOW DID I AGREE TO THIS!?" he screamed as he lept over a flame filled pit.
*
CANTERLOT CASTLE
*
Twilight looked over her team. "Cozy Glow is in the past with a team of powerful creatures. It is your job to bring her back without being seen. Once you get her, Starswirl will see if the timesteam is still good. If it drastically changes the timeline, you must do your best job to fix it."

The team nodded. Shining Armor spoke. "So just to be sure, the team is Yona, Starswirl, Starlight, Pinkie, Rarity, Spike, and me." He gave a pause. "I gotta be honest, I think we need a different team of better creature's."

Twilight let out a sigh. "I know, but Agent Sweetie Drops and Lyra are looking for the Doctor. Until he gets back, you all are the most qualified."

Yona stood proudly. "Yona will do best to keep Equestria safe from Cozy Glow."

"Remember, do anything it takes to keep the timeline fixed. Even if you have to... kill..." This brought a gulp from most in the room.

Starswirl gave a nod to Starlight. "I believe it is time for the spell."

The two activated the timespell. But something seemed wrong. Rather then a wormhole forming, an odd hum was being produced. Starswirl and Starlight quickly tried to stop the spell. The hum grew louder, and the team seemed to fade out of existence.

Twilight stared wide eyed in shock. A nearby maid stated her thoughts. "Well buck."
*
HOUSE
*
Tirek sat in a rather cushy chair in the library. 'What has my life become?' "Chrysalis! We have become friends, dispite-" Tirk ducked as a shocked Chrysalis threw a book at him.

"We aren't friends!" Chrysalis shouted, completly taken by the very idea. "We're partners!"

"Chrysalis, for the past months you and I have been pretending to be a married couple."

"Exactly! We were partners, not-"

"If that's the case, how have I been feeding off of you two?" Cozy Glow asked. She was sitting over in a huge red velvet armchair, and was sinking in it rather deeply, enough that the two other villains forgot about her.

"Stay out of this." the two told her.

Cozy Glow crossed her arms, wearing a mix of a frown and a smirk. "Yeah yeah. You two just don't wanna admit that you love each-" Cozy Glow's eyes widened, and she quickly leaped out of the chair as the books came by whole stacks. "Golly! Just because-" She and the others stopped as a familier hum was heard.

"We... aren't moving though." Tirek got out of the chair and walked to the main room. The others followed. On the way, he grabbed Octavia and Vinyl. The two followed in silence.

Octavia motioned for the others to stay in the hall, before sticking her head through the door to the main room. "Hellooooooo..." Her voice started off as a question, and stretched into realization. "I... Hello."

Starswirl looked around the room, and over at Octavia. "Who are you?"

"Octavia? What is this place?" Starlight looked curiously at Octavia.

"Uhh... First, what are you doing here?"

"We're here to stop Cozy Glow." Shining Armor quickly explained.

A sweat formed on Octavia's brow. "Ohhh. Is that so?"

"Aren't we in the past?" Spike asked. 

"Iiiiii..."

Rarity's eyes widened. "We are! But then that means Octavia is as well!" She looked towards Octavia, a slight look of horror. "Please tell me you're not with her!" Starswirl's horn glowed.

Octavia took a step back. "It's rather difficult to explain, but it's..." Octavia tried to think of something to say. But her mind just kept screaming "Tell the truth". "I... YES!" She quickly brought her hoof to her mouth. "Why did I-"

"Truth spell." Starswirl growled. A beam of magic shot out of his horn, knocking out Octavia.

"OCTAVIA!" Yamun leaped from the doorway. "YAK SMASH!"

"YOU WILL HALT! YOU WILL HALT!" Mercy, Chrysalis, Tirek, Cozy Glow, and Vinyl ran out as well. 

"Attack formation!" Spike and Shining Armor shouted, running towards Tirek.

Cozy Glow reached the console and pushed multiple buttons. The battle was halted. Literally. "Golly, can we NOT kill each other in the first minute?" She looked at the frozen creatures. "Hang on a sec." She pushed more buttons, dodging a blast from Starswirl. "Stop that or I won't unfreeze you. And... there!" Chrysalis propelled from her mid leap, crashing against the timelocked Shining Armor. "I have no idea what gonna happen if I- when I unfreeze you." Cozy Glow rubbed her chin. "Will you fling back? Or contin- STOP!" She ducked as a stronger blast flew towards her.

Tirek grinned in amusment. "Having trouble, Cozy?"

"Yes Daddy." Cozy Glow answered. Tirek frowned. "And I would Loooove some help, mumsy." Chrysalis scowled.

Vinyl let out a whimper. "Oh! Sorry." Tirek quickly reached over and flipped a few switches. Vinyl took a few steps foreward as she left her frozen run.

"Eh. Ugh!" Vinyl pointed in concern at Octavia, before glaring at Starswirl. "UG!" She punched him in the face, before turning to face Cozy Glow. "Uh."

"Wow. That's the most I've ever heard you speak." Cozy Glow held her hoof on a switch. "Ima release everyone, but nobody fights. Okay? Okay." With the flip of a switch, everyone moved back into motion. Shining Armor somersaulted through the air from the changed momentum, while Starswirl rubbed his face. He glared at Cozy Glow as she held her hoof on the switch.

"So you have taken us prisoner. Just know-"

"Ah-ah-ah. Ima stop you right there." Cozy Glow interrupted Starswirl. "First off, you broke into our home. Second, no inspirational quote about stopping me. We're not planning anything yet and the long stuff is boring if not timed right. Third off, HOW THE BUCK DID YOU GET IN!? This is supposed to be the greatest ship it the universe!"

Shining Armor got off the ground. "What do you mean?" he asked, on guard.

Chrysalis stuck out her tongue. "Like we'd tell you."

"We will tell them, just not here." Tirek said. The others looked at him in confusion. He sighed, and did ancient Minotaur sign language. The Caretaker translated. 	We need them away from main control. Put them in with Teacher.  	The others nodded. "Follow us."

Pinkie scratched her head while the others prepared for a fight. "I think he's telling the truth." she said. Starswirl glared at her, then looked around confused as the rest of the group stood down.

"Really!?" Starswirl asked in shock.

"You never question Pinkie." Spike said in response.

The Doctor. An ancient being. Cruel, and kind. A murderer, and a savior. How far will you go, I wonder. Just how far will you go to help someone who isn't even from your universe. We have a way to send you back. You only have to choose to forget. Forget this whole universe exist. You need to be willing, then everything can go back to the way it should. How does that sound, Lord Doctor of Gallifrey?

The Doctor slowly reached his hand out. It sounded so nice. To just forget. To leave the pain. Maybe he would simply die? That would be nice.

Yes. A wonderful idea. Just take my

Mr. Clever pulled the lever for traveling.

"Yeah, no. Sorry. I'm not even going to begin to listen."

Dr. Clever got to her hooves. She cricked her neck. "Alright. Year? Don't know, didn't bother studying these stars through time." She sniffed the air. "Oh farick that isn't good." The scent of Brimstone was thick. She looked around. "I'm in the Badlands..." She received a signal from one of her bodies. 6. 

She checked the message and frowned. "Twilight, huh?"

*LATER

Rassilon paced around the room. "Would someone please explain to me HOW HE ESCAPED!?"

A scientist stuck in the form of a breezie raised a hoof. "She seems to have-"

"HE! THE DOCTOR IS A HE, AND HE HAD A GIRL WITH HIM!" Rassilon shouted. He took a deep breath to calm himself. "Please explain how they managed to shatter over 12 feet of Spantium with lasers."

"Sir, the girl has met up with the Dragon Lord."

". . ." Rassilon turned to face the Breezie. "Get. Me. Twilight."

"Lord President, not only is she very powerful sorcerer, she also is-"

Rassilon held up his hand, silencing him. "Not that one. I'm talking about the little girl we have hidden in a cave."

"Actually sir, we already brought her in." Kenossium said, pulling a young Twilight away from his blaster.

"Excuse me sir, what is that?" Twilight asked, looking at the shiny weapon.

"..." Kenossium stared at the filly. "{Lord President, why do have have to have a child for a hostage?}" he asked in High Gallifreyian.

"{She is the future leader in a world that does not affect us. We can bargain her life for information from the Doctor.}" Rassilon explained.

"Sir, the Dragon Lord and the girl are at our door." the breezie said.

Rassilon moved his hand through his hair, trying to stay calm.

"Sir, the girl is right beside you." Dr. Clever said. Rassilon jumped back in shock. "Golly, did I scare you?" Dr. Clever asked.

"... Hello." Rassilon said.

"Hullo! I'm the Doctor but you already know that. Now then, first things first." Dr. Clever said. "Do something absolutely meaning less as a distraction while Twilight grabs the gun and starts shooting willy-" The sound of machinery exploding filled the room. "Nilly. Good job Twilight!"

Rassilon stared as Dr. Clever and Twilight ran up to the control console. 

"Now then, I have this whole thing set to blow so listen hea-" PEW! Dr. Clever stared in shock at half her bowtie as Rassilon held up a laser gun.

"Sorry, but no." Rassilon said, clenching his gloved fist. The Doctor found herself being teleported. Rassilon stared, before letting out an angered noise. "Some one tell me where she just went."

"YAH!" Twilight jumped on his back, pounding at him with her hooves.

"And someone PLEASE get this brat in a pen or something." Rassilion said. He pried the unicorn away and gently set her down.

*HOUSE

Dr. Clever materialized in the control console room. "Well, I've figured it out." she said, before taking off running. 

*STORMROOM*

The Doctor ran around, pushing and pulling at knobs and switches. "What did you figure out, Doctor?" Mr. Clever asked.

"Well, it's obvious, isn't it?" the Doctor asked. "Think, we had a tormentor made by Cybermen. Those metal things and TimeLords would never join forces."

"...OH! OH GOD I'M SLOW!" Mr. Clever shouted. "It's two different plans, two different parties trying to use the Doctor!"

"But if the Time Lords got us confused for Mr Brown and handsome, then the Cybermen did as well."

"And those bodies weren't just charging energy! They ran the algorithm that allowed us to catch that glimpse of their plans!"

"Which means we simply need to get the other Doctor!" the Doctor said. 

Dr. Clever frowned. "And yet, we know what we have to do." He paused. "Hang on, go back."

***

Dr. Clever stopped running, and walked back up the hall slightly. She poked her head in a room where Teacher was. "Hullo!" she said, walking in. "Follow me because we don't have much time!" She started running back to the control room.

*LAS PEGASUS*

Rose Luck sipped from a glass of water. She refrained from a proper drink, telling herself Now is not the time. She glanced outside the casino, and leapt to her hooves. "Oh dear God! What happened to you!?" Rose Luck rushed up to her husband.

The Doctor stood covered in burns and cuts. "I beat a maniac in a footrace for my tardis." the Doctor answered. "But now's not the time to-" A loud hum filled the air.

"Bonjour Doctor and welcome to the House!" Dr. Clever shouted from her doorway. "Listen, i already explained it to the others, and they'll explain it to you! But the basic, you save the princess and I save the mailmare!" Her Bowtie rang. "Sorry, gotta go!" She shoved Twilight's group of the Tardis, and shut the door.

"COME ON DOC, LET'S GO!" Pinkie shouted, rushing over to the tardis. She stopped an inch before hitting the door. "Hey Doc, can you open this please?"

"Wait, wait." The Doctor let out a sigh. "Someone explain what's going on."

"The other Doctor found out where Derpy is, and where Twilight was taken. We go and get Twilight to safty, while Other Doctor- Dother?- While Dother is going to rescue Ditsy from the Cybermen slash CyberPonies. Something about the Original plan and having developed a Shutdown over the course of thirteen deaths. I'll go further into detail but like Dother said we REEALLY don't have much time cause we're dealing with Time Lords and-" Pinkie fell over, face slightly blue. She started gasping and choking as she caught her breath. "Woo! I- I'm good. But just open the crapping door already."

Rose Luck quickly rushed over and unlocked the door. "Doctor, do you know what this is?" she asked, excited.

"A rescue mission?" the Doctor asked as they got in the Tardis.

"AN ADVENTURE!" Rose Luck said, hopping around.

"WE WILL JOIN! WE WILL JOIN!" The Priest Dalek exclaimed, multiple Daleks behind him.

Cozy Glow watched as everything started to burn to ash. "One last chapter." she growled, moving towards a stallion. "Just one last BUCKING CHAPTER!" She picked up a rock, throwing it at him. "Was that too much to ask for Fim!? WAS IT!?"

He remained motionless. "It would seem so." he whispered. He looked at her. "Forgive me. But this story was doomed from the start."

"Then why make it?" Cozy Glow growled.

"Fun," Fim Fiction said simply. "A fun story to be read and loved. But every step of the way, I doubted my skills. This tale was for me to enjoy, but when it became dull that should have been the end," he explained. "But I prolonged it. And all have had false promises of a grand ending... Maybe one day it will be complete, but today is not that day."

"What am I suppose to do know!?" Cozy Glow shrieked as the flames licked at her hooves.

FIm thought as Cozy Glow burnt to a crisp. "When I discover the answer, I shall let you know."

The End.
For now.
