//------------------------------// // Chapter 6 // Story: Time's Derp // by Blue Jewel //------------------------------// Derpy's eyes widened and sneered at Henry "LET.HER.GO.NOW!" Derpy shouted, that was the last straw, no pony absolutely no pony hurts Carrot Top. "Ah ah ah! First you must fix this." Henry held up a blueprint which had Death Ray written across it. Derpy looked at the blueprints and said "You need to add copper and wires in the back of the ray." Henry looked at the blueprint and facehoofed, "Really? That's it?!" he shouted feeling aggravated that was all he had to do. "Now let Carrot Top go now! and what do you even need a Death Ray for!?" Henry just smiled walked up to one of his machines and pressed a button, "There she's out, and I have royal business to attend to." Derpy gasped "Are you going to kill Celestia?" "Oh no no no dear, kill sounds so aggressive, I'm going to blast her with this and make her fall asleep for a really long time." Henry laughed. As if on cue one of the side doors opened and in came Carrot Top. Derpy saw her best friend and yelled. "Carrot Top! Run! Tell Time where I am please hurry!" Carrot Top just looked at Derpy with a dumbfolded look then she looked at Henry who just shrugged. Carrot Top just threw her head back and laughed "Hahahahaha! Oh Derpy you really are stupid aren't you?" Derpy had a confused look on her face and finally realized, "Carrot Top are you working for Henry?" Carrot Top just snickered and said "No, you idiot, he's working for me!" Derpy was on the verge of tears, "You're Henry's boss." Time looked at the passcode lock for a moment, shrugged, slammed his hooves on it, breaking it into a thousand little pieces and it opened the door. Well, that was easy! Time stepped inside and hid behind one of the machines. He saw Derpy chained to metal bars and looked around. He saw Carrot Top step in from one of the doors. What is she doing here? Before Time could say anything or he heard Derpy say, "Carrot Top! Run! Tell Time where I am please hurry!" He couldn't help but blush when she said his name, when he saw that Carrot Top wasn't running or didn't even react to Derpy's plead of help, he realized Carrot Top is one of the bad guys. Derpy let a tear fall and looked at once her best friend. "How could you do this to me?! I thought we were friends!" Carrot Top gave Derpy a cold stare,"Let me help you remember what you did to make me hate you." "Huh?" "You see Derpy, back when they were still holding auditions for the movie you are now starring in. You remember when I brought you to cheer me on?" [cue flashback] "Aw come on Carrot Top! Just step in there and remember everything you practiced for, it's your moment to shine!" Derpy smiled and pushed her friend into the stage. "Fine! Ok I'm going wish me luck!" Carrot Top walked into the stage. "Hello, Carrot Top is it?" Henry asked. "Yes." she replied "Alright now who are you going to try the part of today?" "The assistant." "Ok now, I'm going to say a line and you respond with the script you have there ok?" "Ok." Henry laughed evilly "Now your Doctor won't find you!" "Oh you won't get away with this!" Carrot Top screamed with little enthusiasm. Derpy looked from the background and couldn't contain herself. "Carrot Top! More enthusiastic! Look like this 'You won't get away with this!'" "Oh, ok 'You wont-" she started and was interrupted by the director. "That was perfect!" Carrot Top blushed, "Thank you!" "Not you! Her!" He pointed at Derpy. "Who me?" Derpy asked. "It was simply marvelous! Stop the auditions, we have found the assistant role!" Derpy blushed and put a hoof to her cheek. [end flashback] "You took the part I've always dreamed of having! You knew how hard I worked for that part, and how much time I spent trying to get it just right!" Carrot Top screamed at Derpy, who was crying. Time couldn't take it anymore, he hated to see Derpy sad let alone it broke his heart to see her cry. "Leave her alone!"
