The Doctor and Ditzy sprinted down the hallways of Itex. Ditzy was galloping as fast as she could. She felt something beneath her hooves and she looked down. It was the file she had dropped. Now she had two options. Keep running like hell and leave her only chance of remembering her life as a filly to burn, or take it with her and learn something horrifying. She mysteriously has no memory of her childhood and Ditzy was horrified she may not want to remember.
"Ditzy hurry up!" shouted the Doctor. Ditzy exhaled softly, picked up the file and bolted. Ditzy smiled to herself. She had never ran so fast in her life, and she loved it. She was a freaking horse on an adrenaline high. Buck yeah. They had exited the building and they kept sprinting until they were 10 feet away from the building. There was a rattling jolt through the ground, and Ditzy and the Doctor were flung forward. Ditzy fell to the ground with a thump. Her vision was blurred and there was an obnoxious ringing in her ears. The Doctor was lying face down on the ground. And he wasn't moving.
"Doctor?" said Ditzy. The Doctor coughed and sat upright. Ditzy sighed in relief.
"Oh, Doctor, you're ok!" said Ditzy happily. The Doctor cricked his neck and turned to Ditzy.
"Sorry, Ditzy. Time travel can be...unpredictable." said the Doctor. Ditzy giggled and flew upward without a problem. Ditzy was so happy she was here with the Doctor and they were safe she forgot to keep her cool and contain her feelings.
"And I LOVE it!" exclaimed Ditzy. She flew down and kissed the Doctor lightly on the muzzle. The Doctor just stood there, a little shocked. He coughed awkwardly and trotted into the TARDIS.
"Come on Ditzy, we should get out of here before we inhale the smoke and die." said the Doctor calmly. Ditzy turned to look at the smoke pluming from the demolished building. She hid the file the Doctor failed to notice lying in the grass behind her back and flew into the TARDIS.
"Are we gonna try again?" asked Ditzy.
"Nah, it's late. You should rest." replied the Doctor. Ditzy nodded and went to her room. She slid the file under her pillow and went to sleep. She had nightmares that night. In her dream, she saw an earthpony trotting towards a building. The earthpony had an aqua coat and a medium cut green mane. Her eyes were a light pink and her cutie mark was a bell.          She was trotting to Itex. She knocked on the door and a unicorn stallion with a white coat and flaming orange mane answered. Liberty shuddered. Why did the look of this pony chill her to the bone?





















































"Hi! I'm Bonnabelle Liberty, but you can call me Liberty! Um, I'm here to apply for the job!" said Liberty. She couldn't see the unicorn's eyes, for they were hidden behind his glasses, but he was smiling, so he seemed nice enough. But Bonnabelle, oh my dear, sweet lovely Bonnabelle...even a young mare as naive as her would have been able to see the malice in his eyes.
"I am Doctor Ocarina. Kindly refer to me as Doctor." said Ocarina.
"Sure!" said Liberty.
"Excellent." said Ocarina. Liberty smiled sweetly and Ocarina started walking.
"Come. I'll show you your room." said Ocarina, and Liberty gasped.
"R-really?? No interview or anything?" asked Liberty. Ocarina shook his head and kept walking.
"YES!!" squealed Liberty and she bounced after Ocarina. She entered
