The Doctor, Amy, Rory and Rose were still looking for a chronosteel. They saw a man sitting on some steps nearby. He had a bag with him. The man said "Oi, you the Doctor?"
The Doctor said "Um..."
The man said "Never mind. Are you looking for some meteor?"
Rory, Amy, and Rose were baffled. Rory said "Depends, Why are you asking?"
The man handed the group his bag and said "The cosmos works im mysterious ways. Time can go wrong at the drop of a hat y'know?" He looked at the street behind and saw several people turn right at a tree. The leaves were falling off onto a yellow brick road to the left. The man said "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I'm sorry I'm unable to travel both. I guess that's one of a time machine's uses. To see what would happen if things went differently."
The Doctor said "Well you could say that. Although time could be rewritten If I had a time machine I would never willingly change the past."
The man said "No all changed you would make to the timeline would be accidental save for some cases. But not everyone shares your wish to preserve history." He looked at the path and said "One could go the way of the could and see what would they do, or one could take the other just as fair," He looked at the yellow road and said "After all. It's grassy and desperate for wear."
Amy said "What are you getting at?"
The man said "There's is always a choice so long as time keeps going. I took the one less traveled and I like to think that made all the difference. Well be seeing you and BTW you should check your fortune." The man left.
The Doctor looked inside the bag and saw...
"Chronosteel?" Indeed there was chronosteel inside. One of the pieces was a vivid violet and had the sign and constellation for Aquarius. The other 13 had Antlia, Apus, Auriga, Caelum, Camelopardalis, Lupus, Puppis, Musca, Octans, Dorado, Mensa, Columbia, and Centaurus.
The Doctor closed the bag and looked at the yellow brick road. He noticed that something was wrong. He said "Ready to see the wizard?" and the group decided to take the left path.

Ponyville ??:00
Rarity was packing her things. She had enough of that fashion show. She packed up every accessory and fabric she could carry tor ready herself for her self-imposed exile. The white unicorn said How could this happen. I don't understand this My designs were flawless until <i>they</i> were getting greedy. She levitated her briefcase and exited her boutique wearing a veil and a dress to conceal her identity.
She remembered her first fashion show. How her friends "suggestions" ruined everything for her. Hoity-Toity called her designs trash and everypony else laughed the models off the stage. Her name was forever ruined.
The white unicorn came to a fork on the road. She saw Pinkie Pie move along the left path. The pink mare didn't even notice her. Rarity thought 'The nerve! She didn't even notice me. I guess I would understand with my reputation the way it is but considering how she ruined it she had no right to do so." Rarity saw several other ponies move on the right path before thinking 'That's the closest way tot he train station. I'll start a life anew in Manehatten." and took the right path.
When she got to the train station she felt wrong somehow. She sighed and got on bard the train to Manehatten.

The Maestro of Discord had asked Donna Noble to come here. She said "What are your orders my liege?"
The Maestro said "I like the sound of that." in the Master's voice. "I want you to go to The Doctor but first." He placed his hand on Donna Noble's forehead. The voice of Discord was screaming 'What are you doing!?' in his head. The color flowed back as she screamed. She remembers A man with a neck tie and a blur box. She remembers the time she met the man. A red spider centaur, a flood, her wedding being ruined. She remembers an alternate timeline with the stars disappearing, She remember the man sealing those memories to save her life. She fainted.
The Master's voice said "I know what The Silence wants and let it be clear. That planet must not be allowed to return to this pain of existence. I don't care how many of my own rules I have to break, but I'll be damned if I let them kill the Doctor or take over the universe."
Discord's voice deadpanned 'I didn't know you had rules. Their kind of boring if you ask me.'
The Master's voice said "Of course they would not be to your liking, they are a sign of order." The Maestro began to pick Donna Noble up. The voice of the Master continued "In any other circumstance I would gladly try to kill the Doctor any chance I get. But I will <i>not</i> let anyone else take his blood so long as I live."
'I know. I found out the hard way.' Discord's voice said.
The Master's voice said "Come on. After we drop Donna off. We need to see the Trickster."
The Maestro teleported out with Donna Noble.

Ponyville ??:00
Pinkie Pie was crying in Sugarcube Corner. Her mane and tail had straightened out. She was surrounded by pile of rocks, a bag of flower, other inanimate objects and her pet Gummy. She saw a pink door to her left and a blue door to her right.
The pink earth pony was depressed. She saw that her friends were doing something behind her back. She found out form Spike that her friends really didn't want anything to do with her after all. 'They just like the parties.' she thought. 'Just like everypony else.' She went in the blur door passing a calendar with today marked.
Once inside she saw that various kitchen knives and thought 'Maybe it's time for me to go.' She had felt fear and sadness.
She exited the blue room and bakery thinking maybe some fresh air would got her mind off her so-called friends.

Atlantis 10:05 AM
River Song, Ditzy Doo, and Minty were still following Homonoia. Ditzy though a series of accidents found herself underneath a cardboard box.
River said "Come on then go already!" Homonoia was just spending time with Lyra and Bonbon.
Minty said "Maybe she can be rusted. It doesn't look like nothing's wrong with her."
River said "Really? I find it hard to believe that a single pony, all alone, was nearby the Siren Goat and and only escape with few scratches and injures."
Ditzy was still trying to move form under the box when she said "Why not? You found us inside a strange prison helping one of The Doctor's exes."
"I've had the benefit of seeing you before your world went to hell." River said. "Her on the other hand..."
Meanwhile Homonoia had finished talking with the two mares and left the area. Later she had looked around for other life forms and noticed a cardboard box. She scanned the box for lifeforms and saw a signature. She decided go another way.
River, Minty, and Ditzy were hiding under the card board box Ditzy found. They followed the blue mare while under the box.
Homonoia eventually met up with a fortuneteller in a dark alleyway. The blue mare said "Did you do your job Apate?"
The fortuneteller said "Yes. They are now in their own little world. Now you said that this plan will succeed not matter what but you or your employer yet to tell me how."
The robotic mare looked around and said "If the plan succeeds then we would have neutralized a huge threat to Olympus limited and the Silence's plans. If it fails then my programming will ensure that the plan reaches it's final stages."
"I see." Apate said. She noticed a cardboard box there and saw it move. "I should go now. I have to keep appearances up in case someone wised up to my plans. I'll be in a small building at the end of the yellow brick road."
"Affermative." Homonoia said. She then left the alleyway. Apate also left the alley to go back to her building.
When both were gone River removed the cardboard box and said "We have to tell the Doctor." The trio went to find the Doctor and this yellow brick road.

Ponyville ??:00
Rainbow Dash had just appeared at the parade celebrating Mare-Do-Well's heroic efforts. The blue pegasus had crashed the parade however and chased her all over Ponyville. She had chased the costumed mare to a fork where she was baffled. She saw several Mare-Do-Wells move to the left, but one took the right path back to where the parade started. Rainbow Dash took the right path and unmasked the pony in front of the populace, only to find out it was Pinkie Pie.
The other Mare-Do-Wells unmasked themselves as Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity. They friends tried to explained why they pulled this charade. But she couldn't hear them over the populace booing at and insulting Rainbow Dash.
"Hero? you're a zero!" one pony shouted.
"Mare-Do-Well was a better hero than you!" another yelled.
"You're a selfish, vain, bitch!" yet another pony bellowed.
Rainbow Dash took one look at her friends. She glare at them with tears pouring out of her eyes. She had felt betrayed, stabbed in the back, she thought they were her friends. She shouted "You want to play the hero? Fine! <b>I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN</b>!" and flew away in tears.
"Good riddance!" and several variants were yelled at her as the rainbow maned pegasus flew to a giant storm cloud near the other side of the Everfree Forest. As far away from Ponyville and other towns as she could get.

Atlantis 11:00 AM
Toola Roola, Starsong, Cheerilee, Flitter, Cloudchaser, Lyra and Bonbon were taking care of Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. They saw The Doctor and his companions move on the yellow brick road.
The herd of ponies decided to see what going on. Meanwhile The Doctor found River with Minty and Ditzy. The Doctor said "What is going on here?"
River said "Hello sweetie. I think this building may had some secrets hidden away."
The Doctor looked at the building and looked back to his group. By that point the ponies had caught up with the others. Meaning everyone was there. Everyone except...
"Where's Twilight and her friends?" The Doctor said.
Lyra said "I don't know. haven't seen them since we went looking for the chronosteel."
Cheerilee noticed that another pony was also missing. She said "Where's Homonoia?"
The door in the building opened and out came Apate. She said "Welcome to my humble fortunetelling business." She looked at the ponies with the Doctor and said "Are you missing some horses?"
River said "How did you know?" She didn't trust the fortuneteller one bit. Nether did the Doctor.
Apate said "My current guest, a blue pony to be exact, came here saying that some of her friends went missing. I told her I haven't seen them but she insisted that she saw them come to this building."
River thought 'I bet she had seen them inside.'
Apate said "She inside right now." She led the group in the lobby. When they got inside they saw Homonoia crying in the lobby saying "I tried to warn them."
Apate lied "She claims I had something to do with their disappearance. But I told her I had noting to do with it."
River, Minty and Ditzy knew they saw Apate with Homonoia. The former knew that the blue erath pony and fortune teller could not be trusted. The Doctor said "Would you mind if I took a quick look around?"
Apate said "Of course but I guarantee you wont find in this building."
River whispered "And I guarantee that we will." The Doctor's group split up to check every part of the building leaving Homonoia behind.

Dodge Junction ??:00
Applejack was working at the cherry orchard. The petals of the blossoms were flying as she kicked several trees to make the cherries fall. The orange earth pony felt incomplete however. She lost the rodeo in Canterlot and wanted to earn enough money to fix the roof. But she lie to her friends saying she'll send them the money soon. She knew it would take a long time for her to make enough money to fix the roof. She continued to work on the orchard. She felt alone and more stressed out than usual.
She said "Ah can't come back yet. Not until I have enough money to fix the roof." And continued to kick the trees as fast as she can. "I told miss Jubilee that I can buck all these cherries at once." and proceeded to work on the trees feeling tired from all the work.

The Maestro found someone in a black cloak and said "So you're the Trickster huh?" in the master's voice.
The figure looked at the Maestro with his eyeless face and said "Yes I'm the Trickster. I sense you want something?"
The Maestro said "No thanks. I know how you operate. I want no contracts for their for little girls and I want no deals for they will inevitably screw me over in the end. I Just want time beetle just as a pet."
The Trickster was a little confused. "You know that would qualify as a deal anyway right?" he said.
The Maestro said "I gonna try and set things right, but my other half wanted to spread a little mischief. he seems a little surprised that there's a pantheon named for him though."
"I heard about your revival. I helped caused it remember. Your cult were very helpful in setting up the ritual." the Trickster said.
"And the Silence were helpful in gathering the ingredients." The Maestro said.
The Trickster smiled and handed him a Time Beetle and said "What do you want it to eat?"
"That's for me to know and you to never find out." the Maestro said. He took the insect and left making sure that the Trickster didn't change anything in the beetle.

Ponyville ??:00
Fluttershy was crying in her ruined cottage. She saw that she had became a cruel monster. She paid her bills to Iron Will and decided to sped the rest of her life in her cottage after terrorizing and traumatizing the townsponies. She remembered her wrecking the marketplace in blind fury after somepony took her lunch. She saw the fearful expression on everypony's face. She saw their fear, their desire to flee from her, their rage, some ponies even went as far as to call her a monster. and she was right. She remembered how even earlier than that she bullied the mayor into resigning form office and the power vacuum was enough to tear Ponyville apart. She saw her pet rabbit Angel comfort and said "Thank you Angel." She saw a blur door to her left and a bloodstained knife to her right. She saw the blood on the knife and thought too perfect a symbol. A symbol of her anger and rage and how far off she had been. She wondered how would the ponies react if she wasn't there to cause them grief anymore. On the other hand she could try to make amends, try to repair herself before she makes things worse on her and the town.
'What do I do?' she thought. She kept considering her choices until she cried herself to sleep.
