Time Loop

by snapplepony


Chapter 2 Monday?

I awoke to Celestia's sun beaming right into my eye again.
"Thought I closed the blinds last night"
Feeling confused I got out of bed and got ready to head to work.

On the way to the shop I ran into Edward and Sarah.
"Hey Avernus heading to work?"
"Yea had a tiring day yesterday so I am a little tired."
"Avernus aren't the shop closed on Sundays?"
"Sunday no yesterday was Monday."
"No Avernus today is Monday. Did not get any sleep last night?"
"I had a good nights rest, i went bed at regular time."
"Well i have to go see yea later Avernus"
Edward ran off leaving me alone with Sarah.
"Well Avernus want to hang out tonight with me and Edward?"
"Don't you mean just me and you?"
Sarah gave me a blushed look.
"Avernus are you hitting on me?"
"Yes, but don't you remember the time we spent together last night?"
"Avernus I was with my family last night for dinner. Are you ok you seem to be having weird thoughts. Maybe you should head home after work."
"Sarah I . I will stop by after work and talk with you have to go open the shop now."
I dashed off leaving a confused look on Sarah's face and a confused look on mine too.
'How did she forget the time we spent together last night is this some kinda prank that Edward and Sarah are pulling on me?'

I arrived at the shop to just open up as a the blue unicorn was rounding the corner.
"Welcome back to Flowers by Bloom."
The blue unicorn gave me a werid look.
"Welcome back? I have never been to this store before sir."
"Oh sorry you look like one of our usual."
She ended up ordering the same arrangement as yesterday, and I made it the same way.
"My dear this is the best arrangement I have ever gotten thank you. I will recommend this place to all my friends and tell to ask for you. What is your name dear?"
"Avernus Bloom, and thank you for your business and spreading the name of my business."
"Well with this quality of work I wonder why no on has picked up on this shop yet. Well that will change."
She left in hurry, leaving her change.
"Lady your change."
"Oh keep that as a tip saying how good of work you did."
After she left I start thinking this was getting weird. A hour an half later the same mother and her colt entered the store.
"Welcome to Flowers by Bloom."
"I heard about this place today from a friend she said the work by Avernus Bloom is superb."
"Well I am Avernus, So how may i help you?"
"I am looking for a foal shower gift. Preferable a very nice arrangement. Some blue since it will be a colt."
As i was working on her arrangement her colt knocked over the whole display of stuff animals.
"So sorry about that he just kinda likes stuff toys here I will buy these to recoup the time to clean them up"
The mare ended up buying 5 stuff animals.
"Ok the same two customers enter the shop and buying the same thing, is the whole town tiring to prank me?"
Forty-five minutes later the same bride came into the store.
"Welcome to Flowers by Bloom."
"Well I just got engaged last weekend and have been waiting to look at flowers. I had a friend recommend this place."
"Well lets sit down and look at our wedding books."
I sat her down in our bridal room to look though all the books.
"I like this and this, oh why cannot my wedding be cheap but be grand at the same time?"
"Well I could work out a deal for you."
"Thank you thank you thank you"
She leaped up and gave me the same very tight hug. I worked out her the same wedding on a budget she was very pleased.
"Ok this is getting weird."
When it was twenty minutes before closing the same older stallion came in wear the same black cloak,
"Welcome to Flowers by Bloom."
He ignored me, he kept browsed everything in the store. He stopped at some of the vases but keep going around the store. He kept me waiting for about forty-five minutes till he finally came up to me at the desk.
"Sir you would not happen to have any dead flowers?"
"Yes I do they will go for a third the value."
" That is fine with me, I only need them for some herbal supplies. Sorry that I took my time I was looking though all you had I how ever will be buying a couple things."
"Well thank you for your business sir."
He bought about forty stems of dead flowers and a bunch of vases and some of the mortars that I did not even notice we had. "Thank you sir and have a good night"
"And to you too young stallion."
After the old stallion left I started wonder who was behind this prank to mess only with me.
As i was heading to the front door to lose a brown stallion entered in looking around.
"Welcome to Flowers by Bloom."
"Yes why hello to you."
He started walking around the store pointing a pen at everything, there was a light buzzing every time he pointed near me.
"What is your name?"
"Avernus Bloom, and yours?"
"The Doctor"
"Ok well doctor are you planning on buying anything?"
"Well no but maybe I might be able to help you."
"Help me with what might I ask?"
"Are you feeling of deja-vu?"
"Yes, but how would you know?"
"Well I'm the Doctor and I'm here to fix your problem. You seem to be stuck in a time loop."
"Time loop?"
"Well to be simple you are stuck repeating the week and each day may repeat or it might go on to the next day. or the same day could repeat forever."
"Any idea of how to get out of this time loop?"
"Well two ways the first is death the second is to stop it at its source."
"Well I don't want to die and I have no idea what could be the cause of this loop."
"Well that is why I am here to find what causes these loops and stop them cause they mess up my ship when they happen."
"Your ship"
"Ah the Tardis, want to see her?"
"Sure."
The Doctor lead me out of my shop allowing me to lock up. i followed him done some back alley ways to a blue police box.
"Avernus meet the Tardis"
"I taught police boxes are supposed to be red and this cannot be a ship."
"Well then come on in."
The doctor opened the door and walked in inviting me in. I followed in expecting a tight enclosed space but found myself in open space. I gave the doctor a dumbfound look.
"I'm shocked."
"Welcome to the Tardis Avernus, she can take you anywhere and anytime. You just have to simple ask."
"Well can she take me to end of the loop?"
"She can but the loop is infinite so we will go till you are dead and you don't want that."
Still be dumbfounded by the Tardis the Doctor keep on speaking.
"Well here is your problem I can take you anywhere but i cannot take you to anytime and when the day would reset my knowledge will be reset only person who know anything will be you Avernus. You must seek me out every day till the loop ends to try fixing it. I however will never be in the same spot each day but the same town as you. You must find the Tardis each day and talk with me. There are only a few things in your world that could cause a time loop and the only one I think who would do it is Discord."
"Discord?"
"Yes Discord. Have you ran into him before?"
"Nope, last I heard about Discord was his defeat by the elements of harmony. Maybe they could stop the loop?"
"Lets try then."
As the Doctor went to the center of the Tardis, the sound of clock in the background chimed signaling midnight.
"Remember Avernus seek me out. Also explain everything to me, the other me will help out."
Everything went black and I awoke to a beam of Celestia's sun hitting me in the eye.
