nine minutes later...
3rd P.O.V
The door leading into a room is heard closing as a gray unicorn walks into the room. She looked really grumpy and wore a crown atop her head. She then passes a purple dragon who is on the floor in pain. When she reaches a bed, she says.
"Pack your things spike, we're leaving." She said this as the dragon let out a groan.
"Why would you want to do that?" Said a voice that sounded old.
When the unicorn turned towards the voice, she muttered a word. "Doctor...."
The oldman smiled and said, "That's me, good old Doctor. Now...why do you want to leave, Twilight?"
She huffed in anger, "Because, my friends are nothing but JERKS! They aren't my friends, who needs friendship?! It's so dumb and sil-"
"How is it dumb?"
Twilight seemed confused by the question and said, "Huh?"
The Doctor got out of chair and walked towards her, stepping over the dragon.
He then asked looking serious, "I said 'How is it dumb?' Well....how is it then?"
"I-it's dumb because..."
"Was it dumb when they stood by you, when no one else would? Here..." -he took one of the many scrolls off the ground and handed it to her- "you can start by reading this one. Maybe you'll find something in there, that'll remind you of who you used to be..."
He then walked off towards the door as Twilight asked him, "D-Doctor?"
The Doctor stopped and faced her, asking. "Yes, what is it? What do you want?"
"Why do you look so old...?"
The Doctor smiled sadly at that and said, "Isn't that the question of the day....The reason that I'm old is because I've been trapped in stone for over a thousand years....My time is up, I'm dying...."
Twilight gasped a little, "B-but you can't die! If you die....then who'll stop all the aliens and monster's?"
"I don't know...but I'm going to stall.."
Twilight looked confused, "Stall? Why are you stalling?"
"I'm stalling for you and your friends, Twilight....so that you can stop Discord.
"They are not...MY FRIENDS!!!"
Now...Tom (Aka The Doctor) rarely yelled. But in this case, he did. It wasn't the fury of the soon too be timelord him...but, it was still very frighting.
"YES THEY ARE SPARKLE!!!!" -Twilight jumped at the tone of his voice- "THEY ARE YOUR FRIENDS!!!! IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME THEN READ THE SCROLLS, THEY WILL SHOW YOU THE MARE YOU ONCE WERE! THE MARE WHO LOVED HER FRIENDS AND WOULD NEVER FORGET THEM! SO, go on then....read them. Remember who you were, Twilight....remember the mare you were or all of Equestria will fall."
He then opened the door and said as he left, "If you want to see me nine minutes and six seconds before I die, I'll be at Sugar Cube Corner eating my last candy......" -He looked at Twilight and sighed sadly- "Goodbye Twilight......It's been an honor to be your friend and to see you time and time again..."
.......And with that he left.

After having walked for two minutes to the center of town, the Doctor was stopped by two machines. They almost looked like large trashcan's with wheels on them, but the Doctor knew better. They may have looked harmless, except they weren't....
"STATE YOUR BUSINESS WITH THE EMPEROR, ONCOMING STORM."
The Doctor sighed and said, "All these years and not once have you Dalek's used my name, when you ask about my business....but if you must know, I'm here to see Har-sorry....bit old, I meant Discord...."
The Dalek's eye swiveled at The Doctor up and down, before saying. "THE LORD OF CHAOS HAS BEEN EXPECTING YOU, DOCTOR. YOU WILL FOLLOW ME."
"Alright, alright....Just go easy on me. After all, I am an old man..."
The Dalek turned around and lead the Doctor to a mismatched animal like creature. The creature had two Daleks on each side of it's thrown. It was twirling a glass of chocolate milk in it's eagle claw like left hand, when it noticed the Doctor.
"Ahh...hello Doctor."
The Doctor smiled sadly, "Hello Harp Strings...."
Harp's face turned to one of rage, "I told you....THAT IT'S DISCORD, YOU OLD FOOL!!"
"Not to me it's not...you'll always be Harp in my eyes."
Discord chuckled at that, "Still haven't changed have you, Doc.....or...have you?" -he scratched his goatee in thought while looking at the old Doctor- "You look a bit like an old stallion...or man in your case. So how long did it take? Seconds? A minute?"
"Actually it took eight minutes....but that's not what I'm here to talk to you about, I'm here to make you an offer..."
Discord smiled, "Still trying to go for peace, before violence....Eh, Doc?"
The Doctor ignored him and said, "Look around you, Harp....do you see them? All these people that lived in fear of you, all these people that fought against you for the Princess's. All these people who spend their lives fighting against your Chaos, time and time again. Do you see them? Now, you may think that your a God. But....the sad truth is, that your not....Your just a unicorn, a unicorn who once fought against Chaos for Order. A unicorn who traveled with his sister and a mad, mad man. Your not Discord, the Lord and Master of Chaos. No....your Harp strings, sister of Lyra Heartstrings. So please, Discord...Harp. Whoever the Taurtis you are! Let me help you....take back all the Chaos that you've done and let me help you. Let me help you get back to your unicorn self and see your sister again. If not for the people of Equestria or me, then do it for your sister!!!"
Discord stared at him for several seconds, before sighing sadly as he sadly said. "No....I'm sorry Doctor, but no....no one would forgive me for what I have done...not even Lyra."
"Yes she would because I forgive you..."
Discord looked at him sadly, "I still have to say no, Doctor...you and I both know the rules of time....."
The Doctor smiled at that, "I'm surprised that you listened to me about the rules of time travel..."
"So am I, now go ahead and stop me with your sonic or TARDIS."
"I can't..."
Discord looked dumbfounded as he asked, "What do you mean 'You can't?'"
"I mean I can't...the sonic screwdriver turned back to a prop and the TARDIS is gone..."
"So you really are...."
"Dying....yes."
"Then why did you come to me? To try and get me to give up?"
"No....to say goodbye..."
"Goodbye? Well then...." -he snapped his fingers and appeared in a soldier's uniform- "Goodbye Doctor....it was an honor to be your companion with my sister and to travel throughout all of time and space...."
"Goodbye Harp and I'm sorry.....I'm so sorry for what the Master did to you..."
With that, the Doctor walked away towards Sugarcube Corner.

Four minutes later....
The Doctor sat at a chair with seven seats. He sat at the seventh while the six were devoid and completely empty. Infront of him were empty plates and wrappers were sweets had been before.
A plumpish, blueish pony comes towards the Doctor as she asks, "Is there anything else that I can get you, deary?"
"No, I'm good...."
"Ok, just let me know if you change your mind..."
That's when the door opened and six ponies walked in. They looked around the area, before spotting the Doctor. They then all went towards him...
