//------------------------------// // Altair ♙ Medusa Cascade // Story: 6.7.11 // by Morningstar1337 //------------------------------// TARDIS ??:00 The Doctor was looking at the message that said "GALLIFREY WILL RISE. SILENCE WILL FALL." He looked for the others. meanwhile Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Applejack were in the library. They were looking at some books. 'You never told us why aw are looking for books on telepathy?' Pinkie thought. 'We need to see if there's anything that we can use to reverse it.' Twilight thought. 'Yeah we need to stop it's getting creepy.' Rainbow Dash thought. 'And these band clash with my mane.' Rarity thought. While the 6 ponies were searching the library Homonoia was staring at them with intrust. She felt empty inside. She thought 'I need to get these inhibitors off for this plan to work.' River Song, Ditzy, Minty, and Cheerilee were spying on the blue earth pony. Cheerilee said "What's she doing?" Minty said "Looks like she's stalking them." "Looks like your stalking her." Lyra and Bonbon came from behind River and the other 3. River said "I'm certain she's up to something." Later Amy and Rory were wondering what will they do with the chronosteel. Toola Roola was teaching a art class to the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Starsong was talking about the weather with Cloudchaser and Flitter. Rose however was in the control room. She saw another ship near their coordinates. She went to warn the Doctor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TARDIS ??:00 The group went to the control room after Rose warned the Doctor of the ship. The Doctor noticed that the ship's sent a message to the TARDIS. The Doctor answered with "Hello?" The voice on the other end said "I wish to propose a truce Doctor." The voice sounded familiar but the Doctor couldn't place it He said "A truce with whom, and why?" A nearby screen revealed a Sontaren who said "All of reality is threatened and you may know how to stop it." Everyone was a little surprised. The Doctor was especially shocked. The Sontarens were known only for their warfare and they were not known for making truces and alliances unless the universe was truly at stake...Or unless they owed the Doctor a favor. "How did you get this frequency?" The Doctor said. "We saved a few of your allied from what happened on earth." The Sontaren on screen said. "What do you mean?" The Doctor said. "Come aboard and we'll show you." The transmission ended. "Doctor what's going on?" Twilight said. "Trouble." The group decided to enter the Sontaren battleship and see what's going on. Being careful and alert. River brought some weapons in case it is a trap. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sontaren Warship ??:00 The TARDIS had materialized inside the Warship. The Doctor was worried. Who did the Sontarens save? What happened to earth? And what forced the Sontarens to make a truce with the Doctor when most of the time they were out for his blood. A Sontaren went to greet the group. He led them to the bridge of the warship. There he met the general of this batch of Sontarens. He said "So it is true: Disappearing planets, vanishing stars, and now the dead Doctor has been revived." Everyone was confused. Another door opened, and Martha, Jack, Gwen, Mickey and Rex went out shocking everyone but the general. River said "Now this will be an interesting reunion." Martha said "Doctor we need to talk." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sontaren Warship ??:00 Martha and the Sontaren general explained that A robot by the name of Hermes had visited her house and warned them of the Silence that what's left of Torchwood sent the robot to find help. The robot had found the Sontarens and led them here just in time to save her and her allies but afterwards something happened on earth. Time on the planet was stopped. Nothing moved everything there was still. The planet had vanished shorty afterwards. The Doctor said "Okay that explains what happened to earth but I'm still curious about why you chose to help them." The Sontaren general said "The robot told us to help you. A ridiculous request to say the least...until we managed to see a planet disappear before our eyes." The Doctor thought 'Wouldn't be the first time they collaborated with others in the face of universal destruction.' He noticed Rex there and said "Who are you?" "Rex Mathison. CIA agent." Rex said. "I've heard a lot about you Doctor." The Doctor said "How?" "I've worked with Torchwood before. It's a long story." Rex said. Pinkie said "Oh really I love good stories. Stories are super duper fun." She rambled on and on. Rex didn't noticed the ponies there before. The Doctor said "I love a good story too. Let's start with what happened before the Sonatrens abducted you." Jack said "We already told you about the robot." Mickey said "And time stopping on earth." Martha said "We did see something before time came to a halt." Pinkie said "Really what was it? Was it a huge monster terrorizing a city somewhere?" Twilight said "Pinkie." Rex said "A unicorn." Applejack said "Beg pardon?" Rex said "A unicorn, like some of your friends here. Blue color, strapped to a machine pale bur mane and tail." Fluttershy thought 'Do you think it could be Trixie?' Rainbow Dash thought 'Can't think of anypony else like that.' Martha said "That's about all we remember. the next thing we know Earth stopped spinning and vanished." The Doctor said "I see. So you saw a blue unicorn and then time on earth stopped." The Sontaren general said "I'm not surprised. We heard about several planets vanishing. The unicorn is news to us though." The Doctor had an idea "This is not the first time it happened to earth though." Rose Jack, Gwen and Martha remembered the Daleks and their Reality Bomb. "Jack can I see you phone?" Jack was surprised. He said "Sure but usually people call me with my phone on." He handed the Doctor his phone. The Doctor used his sonic screwdriver on it. River said "Doctor what are you doing?" The Doctor finished and said "I think I know where the earth went. Thanks for saving my companions but we must be off" He went back to the TARDIS. Everyone but the Sontarens followed him back. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TRADIS ??:00 The Doctor went back to the TARDIS and set the coordinates for the Medusa Cascade. He thought 'What are they doing?' He was sure that the missing planets was no mere coincident. The rest of his companions was already back in the TARDIS. He wondered what the Silence and Olympus Limited would gain from this. The TARDIS had vanished for the Sontaren warship. Back in the Warship. The general said "Track the TARDIS. And prepare for combat." The warship did so as the blue box disappeared. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Medusa Cascade ??:00 6/07/6711 The TARDIS had appeared inside the Medusa Cascade a few second out of sync from normal time. There they saw 108 planets in a large sphere-like formation. There was an empty ship on top of the formation and a large starship in center of it. Pinkie said "Ooh look We found Equestria." And pointed to one of the planets. Indeed that was the planet where Equetsria lays. the planet that the ponies used to call home. The group recognized other planets as well including two earths. Rose wept for she knew that she went form one to the other. There were other familiar planets as well. Homonoia took the time to leave the control room. River noticed this and followed. Amy said "Doctor what is this?" The Doctor said "108 missing planets." Everyone had noticed that there were no stars. There were the 108 planets, the TARDIS, the ship in the center of the planets, and nebulae but no stars. The Doctor wondered why this is. Homonoia went to the dwarf star alloyed room. River followed with her blaster ready, She was in for a surprise. Homonoia said "BEGINNING TELEPORTATION!" and revealed her metal wings and horn. The Dwarf-star and Chronosteel alloyed room began to shrink to the size of a softball. The door opened to find a metal black sphere with a competently accurate star chart and rainbow zodiac signs on it. River had caught up to the metal blue pony. She said "I knew you couldn't be trusted." Homonoia levitated the black sphere and said "CHRONOSTEEL ACQUIRED. RETURNING TO OLYMPIA!" The robot pony disappeared with the sphere. River was mad that the chronosteel slipped under their fingers as well. She went back to tell the Doctor that Homonoia had stolen the chronosteel.
