“Applejack, come into the TARDIS. I want to show you something.” The Doctor said softly. Applejack followed him into the blue box. He began to randomly throw levers and push buttons on the console.
“What are ya doing Doc?”
“You’ll see.” He flipped a final switch and they both hung on as the TARDIS began to rumble and shake.
“Done. Walk outside.”
Rainbow Dash woke up from her faint and looked around. The wind was still going at a ferocious speed and the bubble was still closing in. She looked over at Pinkie and leaned over her mouth. She could hear her breathing faintly, if anything, it sounded fainter than before. She looked over at Twilight and Nightmare.
“Can’t you do anything to help her?” Rainbow pleaded with her friend.
“I’ll see what I can do.” Twilight walked up to Pinkie slowly and felt around with her vast magic to see what the problem was. She located it and tried to fix it best she could.
“She’ll suffer from a broken leg but knowing Pinkie, she’ll probably recover faster than the blink of an eye.” Rainbow sighed and grinned.
Applejack walked out of the blue box and glanced left and right.
“Ah don’t see anything.”
“Damn. Too much mist.” The Doctor walked out after Applejack and grimaced. He could barely see through the mist.
“You sure we’re in the right place and time?”
“That’s a perfectly good question …” He twirled around and walked back into the TARDIS. He checked the monitor, double-checked and even triple-checked just to make sure that they were in the right time and place.
“Applejack, come here.” Applejack walked in and looked at the monitor. It showed a bunch of squiggly lines.
“What’s that meant to mean?” She pointed to the squiggly line on the monitor.
“That’s a crack. We are in the right place but the … wrong … time … Not again!” He furiously stamped his hooves and ended up stubbing one of his back hooves on the console.
“Wrong time!? What time are we supposed to be in!?”
“The same time as when we left, that is, when the bubble was shrinking, but it appears that we have gone back in time. Back to when Nightmare Moon covered the entire city in a bubble of magic.
“Hang on. Ah haven’t said anything abou’ Nightmare Moon.”
“Yes you did.”
“No ah didn’t” They went like this for a few more minutes until the Doctor called a tie.
“Who cares if you said it or not! We just have to make sure to not be-“
“Who are you pathetic foals?” A booming voice could be heard.
“Too late.”
