Know your mare, know your mare, know your mare...

For once, the little filly on center stage wasn't there alone. Beside her was a blue police box with its front door cracked open. But to the little filly, it was the least oddest thing as she trembled behind a book cloaking her face.

Twilight Sparkle...

...can't reason why she's here...

"If... If I had to draw any conclusion to why I'm here, it would be because of some sort of unrealistic logic."

...Nerd...

"Nerd?"

Twi-Twi...

...has no future to look foreword to...

"Twi-Twi? And of course I have a future. The Princess is taking me in as a personal student."

Yeah...

...A lot that will get you...

"You don't know what you're talking about you philistine!"

...Neeerd...

Sparky...

...is doomed to become the stick in everyone's mud...

"Why should I even care if that's true? My studies and magic should come first. Not one thing comes before that."

What about your brother...?

"Exceptions to the rules are always applicable..."

...Neeeeeeerd...

Twilley Nick-nack-patty-wack Sparkle Sparkle Sparkle...

BUCK YEAH, Sparkle Sparkle Sparkle!

...is about to be mentally scarred for all her life...

"How?" just like that, a hatch above the filly Twilight swung open to drop a mix of snakes and other reptiles on her. In seconds, Twilight began screaming and flailing away at the scaled creatures before rushing for cover inside the police box.

...Step one complete...

...Step two...?

I know just who to go for...

Wow...

There is a tear in my eye...

...I'm so proud of you...

...How long do you think it will take for the Doctor to figure out where his thingy-is?

I give him a week as long as our ace in the hole keeps him distracted...





"Ma'am. I thank you for trying to be hospitable, but I will tell you one more time. I do not care what wubs are!"
