//------------------------------// // Splat! // Story: I Spy a Derpy // by I_Heart_Derpy //------------------------------// I decided to pick the CAM 4 option, and a picture of the Canterlot Castle popped up. Then, I saw live video feed from the royal sisters' dining room. I flew it onto the table, and I saw Princess Luna, sliding around on the hardwood floor in fuzzy Christmas socks, zooming sideways, backwards, forwards, and diagonal without falling over once. I burst into laughter when Princess Celestia came through the doorway at top speed and fell onto the floor face first. I tapped the red tab again and picked a number at random. CAM 2. A picture of Twilight Sparkle's castle flashed onto the screen. I was in the main hall on the third floor. The chandelier was elegant and gorgeous. The roots that were hanging from the ceiling were perfectly sanded, stained, and polished, but the REAL beauty was in all of the gemstones suspended from the branches. It was the middle of the day by now, and the sun roof let in sunlight and it reflected rainbow light across the room. I heard muffled voices around the corner. They sounded confused. I flew the drone through the doorway. It led to the royal throne room, where Rarity and Applejack were with Twilight, talking about some map. Then I saw their cutie marks and gasped. They were glowing! I had to see what was going on. I heard a knock on the door which made me jump, causing my hoof to slip, causing the slippery glass tablet to slide off the table, sending a long, spidery crack across the screen. I yelped and threw the sheet back over the table as the Doctor climbed down the ladder into the main entrance. "Ditzy Do! I'm back! Ditzy?" He called. "I've gotten a screen protector for my new device, so now we can use it together!" I heard his hoofsteps. "Diiitzyyyy! I have a surprise for you!" I held my breath. The hoofsteps stopped, then started again. I let my breath go as the trapdoor opened and shut. "Oh, no no no no no no no no no!" I couldn't have broken the screen, not after the Doctor said not to! I started crying. I felt a hoof on my shoulder. I looked up, "Oh, Doctor! I'm so sorry!" I sobbed, hugging him. He stroked my mane. "Ditzy, don't cry." he soothed. After a few minutes, I had calmed down a bit. I was curled up on the floor with my face buried in my tail. I lifted my head up to see the Doctor with a small yellow and grey gift box in his mouth. "For- for m-me?" I sniffed. He set the box down and smiled. I pulled the ribbon and lifted the lid. Inside was a tablet with both of our cutie marks in it. "The one you were using was a prototype. I told you not to use it so you would want to play with it and see how fun it was." He chucked. " I went into town to pick THIS one up from the paint shop, where I got our cutie marks printed onto it, giving you just enough time to figure it out. I jumped up and hugged him. "but," I said, letting go of him, "how did you know what I was going to do?" he rolled his eyes and grinned. "Whilst unicorns have mastered time travel with a spell, I have mastered it with my TARDIS! and the MAGIC of SCIENCE!!!" I love Doctor Whooves.
