Rukbat ♐ Nightmare's Kindness

TARDIS ??:00

The Doctor was studying the mechanism and inputting the coordinates. To his side, the Tarot deck Cassandra gave him, with the Hanged Man outside. The Doctor looked at the deck and said "Well lets see what I'll get now." He put the Hanged Man back in and shuffled. The Doctor pulled out 4 cards and placed them face down in a spread resembling a cross.

He flipped the top card up, It was the Star. He then flipped another, which was the 7 of swords. He flipped the bottom one and saw the Hanged man he'd put back. And the final card he flipped was the Temperance.

The Doctor was a little surprised by the result. Especially since he's put the Hanged Man back in the deck. Fluttershy just walked in. She said "Umm hello."


The Doctor saw the yellow pegasus and said "Ah Fluttershy, hello." He looked back at the spread and wondered what would happen next. Toola Roola also walked in and asked them to come to her room. The Doctor and Fluttershy followed her back to her room.

TARDIS ??:00

The multicolored maned unicorn had led The Doctor and Fluttershy to her room. Everyone else was waiting. River Song and Rainbow Dash were a little impatient.

Cheerilee and Starsong went to the artist and the violet pegasus said "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Toola Roola nodded and said "Yes. I can't let my past haunt me anymore." She opened the door to her room and unveiled her paintings.

Everyone was a little shocked. Though Pinkie Pie bounced and said "Wow that's the most impressive painting I've ever seen." Rainbow Dash was a little saddened.

The Doctor noticed a particular painting. This was one of the sword hung only by six hairs. he would have to ask her about that later. The Doctor went back to inputting the coordinates and everyone else went back to rest.

Fluttershy had found herself inside a spacecraft different from the TARDIS. She took a look at her surroundings and hid behind a sign that said "108 still points" when she saw something move. She waited for the figure to move a little closer.

To her bafflement the figure in the distance was herself! But that clone was wearing her Element of Kindness. Fluttershy was scared of her clone. She wondered what it could mean. She said "I must be brave." gulped and followed the clone.

She tracked her clone deeper down the spaceship. She saw that her clone was just as timid as she was. She thought 'Maybe I should help her?' when she saw the clone trip.

She went up to the clone and said "Um hello?" surprising her clone in the process.

The Fluttershy clone said "W-who are you?"

"Fluttershy, you?"

"That can't be right. I'm Fluttershy." She hid behind a corner that said "88 screaming stars."

The first Fluttershy thought 'Am I really that timid?' She went to her and said "Um, did you have somewhere to go?"

"Um-huh." said her clone. "I have to meet my friends somewhere in this ship."

Fluttershy pondered for a second. She thought over the possibility that her clone might be talking about the other bearers of the Elements. She said "I'll help you find them."

The clone said "You will?"

"Of course." Fluttershy said before realizing that she just arrive on this ship without know how she came here in the first place.

The Fluttershy clone said "Thanks." The two Fluttershys went off to find her friends.

They searched high and low for the others and eventually went inside a peculiar room. The room looked like a empty desert underneath a sky. They saw a fan and a grid below their hooves and the other bearers of the Elements of Harmony in the center of the large room. There was also a glowing sphere. "Another Harmony" was written on the entrance behind them.

The Fluttershy clone said "Thanks." and went to join her friends. Fluttershy however noticed the temperature drop and saw the clouds swirl and grow dark and thick until they covered the sky. Her doppelganger and friends were ready to use the Elements on that sphere. But...

"Get out of here!" Fluttershy saw a tornado forming above the other 6 ponies. She went to warn them but she wasn't fast enough. The tornado engulfed her doppelganger and her friends. She could see pink, purple, white, orange, blue, and especially yellow streaks the 6700 mph winds. And she could see them shrinking in height as the tornado grows bigger and closer. She tried to run away as fast as she could but it was too late. She was caught inside the tornado's grip and was soon engulfed by the winds.

When she was trapped inside Fluttershy saw her clone and her friends still trying to escape only to be blown back to the center. She also saw cherry blossoms inside the tornado for some reason.

The blossoms were blowing over herself and everypony else in the tornado. attaching to the ponies until they were entirely covered in petals. One by one the petals covered them whole and blew away with leaving a trace of who they were covering leaving only Fluttershy. But she was already covered halfway in petals. She struggled and screamed and tried to get the petals off her but she was soon trapped within a cocoon of cheery blossoms which was itself trapped in a tornado. She gave one last scram when the petals dispersed.

TARDIS ??:00

Fluttershy had woke up. She was a little relived that it was a dream. She thought to her friends 'Can you meet me outside my room?' and exited her bed.

Later Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash met her inside the hallway outside her room. She though 'I had a...'

'Bad dream?' Twilight thought.

Fluttershy nodded and thought 'It was awful...' She began explaining her dream and it's differences to the other ponies present.

Rainbow Dash thought 'Hold up, You actually met you doppelganger in your dream?'

The yellow pegasus thought 'Yes.'

Applejack thought 'Now that's certainly strange.'

Pinkie Pie thought 'First Dashie, then Rarity, them me and now Fluttershy. Hmm...'

The rainbow maned pegasus thought 'Are you on to something Pinkie?'

The pink earth pony thought 'I got it. We must be missing Ponyville.'

Everyone was a little astonished by the suggestion. Fluttershy said "Um Pinkie are yo--"

Pinkie said "Don't worry Fluttershy. We'll find a way to ease your spirits." She then took Fluttershy and went out of the corridor.

Rainbow Dash thought 'You don't think these nightmares are caused by homesickness. Do you?'

Twilight thought 'I don't know.'

Applejack thought 'Well Ah know that Twilight and I are the only ones so far that didn't have any nightmares like that. Maybe we can get some answers.'

Rarity thought 'Well good luck.' The TARDIS was about to land.

The eye-patch woman had entered a room. The room looked like a wasteland littered with swords and the sky was littered with gears. The Maestro of Discord was levitating the cell containing Donna Noble. The eye-patch woman said "Is it done?"

The Maestro said "Yeah it's done." he then make several swords levitate and turn into bouquets and the wasteland turn into a volcano. "She had been successfully reprogrammed. all you have to do is apply those eye-whatever and at least she won't die of know too much."

The woman was followed by an old man wearing a cloak. He said "Excellent." He and some other people lifted the cell and exited.

The Maestro said "Who was that?"

The woman said "Prometheus. Head of Olympus Limited's Prometheus Division. Deals with theft, fire, and the transfer of information. Apparently the mental connection between the bearers needs to be strengthened more."

"<i>WHAT!?</i> We should weaken their friendship. That accused bond was the reason th--"

"You are here now, trapped within the body of a dead man now? And didn't you tell me that you were petrified after you tried to break their friendship?"

The Maestro was baffled. He said "Yes but--"

The woman said "Be patient. We are almost ready to execute the final stage of our plan. Their bond will soon be the universe's downfall." She then left he room.

The Maestro was experiencing some headaches. Someone in his head said "Get out of my head."

Kaukasos 9:00 PM 1/11/5167

The TARDIS has landed inside a domed city. The city was bustling with alien life. Everyone spit up to look for the chronosteel. The Doctor took his Tarot deck and timey-wimey detector with him just in case.

Starsong looked to see a clear sky with few clouds. She said "I'm guessing this dome is there to keep air in since there appeared to be no atmosphere." She saw Toola Rool and Cheerilee. She went to then and said "Congrats on getting that weight off your chest."

Toola Roola said "Thanks. Did your singing voice return yet?"

Starsong said "I think so but I haven't practiced in a while. Are you still painting peoples' dreams?"

Toola Roola sighed and said "Yeah."

Cheerilee butted in the conversation and said "Well maybe it'll go away soon."

Toola Roola said "Yeah maybe."

Flitter and Cloudchaser saw the three ponies. Cloudchaser said "I don't get what this dome is for."

Starsong said "I think it's there to keep the air in."

Flitter said "Excuse me?" for she and her sister were confused.

"This planet has no natural atmosphere. or at least one we can breath in normally." Starsong said.

"Therefore if we were outside the dome, we would probably choke or explode." Cheerilee said.

Everypony in this conversation were grossed out by that expatiation. The five ponies went together to explore the place.

Meanwhile the Cutie Mark Crusaders were with Their sisters (or idol in Scootaloo's case) and their friends. Apple Bloom said "Don't you think they've been acting strange lately?"

"Try a little creepy." Scootaloo said. "They been acting like they don't even need to to talk to each other now."

Sweetie Belle said "Maybe they know something we don't?"

The filly with the hail bow said "Like what? How to speak with their minds?"

The orange pegasus filly said. "That's more ridiculous that your claiming that Ponyville will fall in chaos on hearts and hooves day."

The white unicorn filly said "It does seem like it though."

The yellow earth filly said "Alright maybe we can get our cutie marks finding out what's going on with them."

Scootaloo said "That's a great idea." Sweetie Belle agreed with them. The 3 fillies decide to find out what's going on with the bearers of the Elements.

Kaukasos 9:30 AM

The Doctor was searching for the chronosteel with River, Rose, Rory, and Amy. River saw the Doctor's Tarot deck and said "Doctor, why do you have this?"

The Doctor said "Just in case."

River said "You don't really believe in this rubbish, do you?"

"Why not?" The Doctor said. "A little fortunetelling never hurt anyone."

"Starship UK says hi." Amy said.

"Oh come on, those people only looked like they were telling fortunes." The Doctor said.

Rose said "And those Carrionites with Shakespeare in London?"

"How do you know that?" the Doctor said. "I was traveling with Martha then."

Rose said "I had my own time machine. You don't think I can travel back in time looking for the Silence then?"

The Doctor said "Good point." The group of five went looking for the chronosteel.

Meanwhile Twilight, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were exploring the place. Unaware that the Crusaders are following them. They saw someone move toward them and said "Hello."

Twilight said "Um hi?"

The man said "Would you like to be part of an experiment?"

Rarity said "No thanks, were just passing through."

The man said "Well keep this just in case." He handed them a flyer and left. Twilight levitated the flyer and thought 'Well that was weird.'

'You think?' Rainbow Dash thought. the ponies deiced to go back to the TARDIS with the fillies still following them.

Sweetie Belle whispered "You sure we can avoid being caught?"

Scootaloo whispered "I have a ton of experience with this. Don't worry."

Apple Bloom whispered "I'll bet." and rolled her eyes. The three fillies followed their sisters (and idol) back to the TARDIS.
