She turned to see Ditzy Doo, the pegasus who served as her husband's companion stared at her blankly. "It's peaceful up here, isn't it?" said River, trying to break the ice. Ditzy's feathers bristled. "Space makes me nervous..." said Ditzy. River nodded. "Of course it does. It's bigger than you. Everypony is naturally scared of things bigger than them." said River. Ditzy gritted her teeth. River could see right through her and she hated that. She was right. The universe put Ditzy on edge because when she thought of the universe she felt small. She didn't like feeling small, thinking about it too much made her skittish and agitated. "That's not true!" said Ditzy lying through her teeth. River smirked. "Oh yeah? When was the last time you had a chat with a griffon? Negotiated with a dragon? Discussed the weather with a manticore?" River could go on, but she had made her point. Ditzy looked like she was about to evolve into Rapidash. The TARDIS lurched, and Ditzy was almost knocked off. River got tense and dug her hooves into the top of the ship, as if sensing it's movements. The TARDIS flicked angrily to the right and Ditzy flew to the doors. She could hear the Doctor muttering under his breath and pacing. "Doctor? Are you ok?" asked Ditzy. She trotted up to the Doctor and gave him a concerned look. "The TARDIS is being pulled in by something, and I can't break free!" said the Doctor. Ditzy looked around the room nervously. "Um...guys? You might want to see this." said River. The TARDIS was coated with a golden and midnight blue auora. Ditzy flew up to investigate. The golden mist made River look even more striking. Ditzy thought she had seen somepony important use magic this color. Her thoughts were interrupted when the midnight blue mist started wrapping itself around her. Soon, Ditzy's body was completely coated in blue auora. "D-Doctor?!" said Ditzy. That was all she could get out of her mouth before she was yanked down to the closest planet at full speed. "DITZY!" yelled the Doctor. The TARDIS lurched, clearly not supported as well when there was only one field of magic supporting it. Wherever Ditzy went the TARDIS was about to join her. "Hold on!" shouted River as their ship was pulled toward the planet. Ditzy was being pulled toward her own planet. She tried to fight against the field of blue magic, but she couldn't. She shot to Equestria like a bullet. Soon, she broke the sound barrier and bubbles flew everywhere. Ditzy gasped. She remembered reading in a history book that even before the Sonic Rainboom there was something called a Sonic Bubbleboom. The performer was unknown. Had SHE been the one who did the Sonic Bubbleboom? It was an accident! What time period was she even in? Ditzy blacked out as she crashed through a window and hit the floor hard. When Ditzy opened her eyes she gasped. Staring down at her was the princess of the night, Princess Luna. Ditzy gulped. She was in the prescence of a goddess.
