"So the blimp should be here in a few days but until then we need to prepare the machine the princess is building."

"I Do agree on senator but what happens if there is an accident between Ponyville and Saddle Arabia?"

The senator laughed "It is the newest of technology and it has been tested many times before this flight, there is nothing to be worried about."

"Ok but I still think we should be prepared just in case." The senator walked over to the window and opened the blinds letting light into the completely dark room. An orange mare covered her eyes as the sun entered the room revealing a headdress that was made of different colors and shapes. As her golden eyes readjusted to the light she walked over to the window where the tan senator was standing.

"Saddle Arabia is composed of vast towers made of thee finest golden brick sand which protects against wind-sand erosion and there hardly is any rain here so we don't have to worry about that, I don't know what you're so worried about."

The orange mare was now in a sitting position running her hooves through her purple mane, "Please senator reconsider, I have always been right about my feelings why don't you listen."

The senator let out a heavy sigh as his face stiffened up, "I had you voted onto the board because I thought you could make good choices, and you have I don't doubt it, but I can't have you make everyone go into hiding because you have a feeling."

The orange mare suddenly looked beyond the city, beyond the stables below, beyond the dessert, and possibly beyond her own mind, "There here." suddenly a large black cloud came into view over the large mountains of sand. Behind it were massive gray clouds emitting both blue and purple lightning. The black cloud didn't really look like a cloud but more like smoke. The senator looked into the cloud as something began to slowly fall out of it. The senators eyes widened as he saw a blimp very slowly and at a slant start moving straight for the ground.

The senator turned from the window and ran to the closed door, as he opened it a gear sounded which brought down a large cone. He took the cone back to the window and let out a loud call "Everypony get to the Memoriam cellar, prepare for a disaster!"

"Acheron do something," Derpy shouted over the wind. Acheron used her magic to hold dinky while running around on board. The Doctor still at the podium was controlling the direction of their quick decent while the captain was holding onto his leg. Kauter had stuck his sword into the deck and was calmly holding himself still.

Amethyst ran to the front of the crashing blimp and began to use her magic trying to slow the fall, "If there are any more unicorns on board please help!" One unicorn lets go of a pole he was desperately holding onto and slid down the deck to Amethyst. He nodded to her as he began using his magic. Acheron ran up to the front of the blimp and froze Dinky's hooves to the deck so that she couldn't fall, both of them began to use their magic on the blimp.

The Doctor looked down and the Captian who was now beginning to sweat, "What are you even doing, why don't you help them?"

The captain looked up at the Doctor with an amount of fury in his eyes, "What do you think I have been doing, I am protecting everypony on the blimp with my protection spell."

Derpy pulled herself off of the ground and shouted, "We need to get some pegasi to pull at the back to stop the blimp." Quickly she was surrounded by a small group as she began to take off. Before she got off the ground she was pulled back down, "Don't forget about the griffon," Kauter said with a smirk. Kauter let go of his sword as he took off, leaving it on the deck. Below the towers of Saddle Arabia ponies were screaming and yelling as they ran through alleyways and streets. An orange unicorn quickly walked through the streets using his green magic to create an umbrella of magic.

All around him were fillies of different ages letting out whimpers and small screams, "Come on fillies I'll get you somewhere safe." He was wearing a manila fly mask with green goggles over the eye holes. "I can't believe he is having me wear this."

A small purple filly looked up and asked, "Who is making you wear that mask."

The stallion smiled, "His name is the doctor and I would imagine he will be here soon." Suddenly a large group of ponies came running from behind a corner, they all ran to the station and thanked them for protecting their children as the quickly returned to behind the corner he used his magic to pull off the goggles and the mask. He pulled the goggles over his red hair and around his neck then sighed, "Better get going." As he trotted through the abandoned streets he found himself lost. "Umm where was that cellar," he looked around then he looked up. "I should probably get to higher ground to figure out how to get through this maze of a city. He quickly entered a tower and climbed up the large spiral staircase. "Dang I should have just used my magic and flew up here, whatever." The top of the tower was high above the city, he quickly pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket and began taking notes of how to get through the city.

He thought he heard someone screaming so he looked down over the edge to see where the source of screaming was coming from, "Tick Tock."

He thought "Ha now I'm hearing things, I could have swo.."

His mouth clamped shut as he turned around and saw a massive blimp heading straight for him "Stop the blimp," he heard coming from the blimp. He closed his eyes tightly and he started focusing all of his magic trying to stop it.

He opened one eye just in time to see the blimp make a sharp turn, causing the side of the blimp to be closer to him now, "I guess this is my sign to jump on." He now used his magic the boost himself onto the deck "Doctor!?" He made another quick turn causing them to dodge the tower Tick Tock was just standing on.

"Help us," Tick Tock turned to the front seeing four unicorns trying their hardest to stop the blimp. He lit up his horn and began to help.

The Doctor's face turned from being confident to being nervous as numbers began running through his head, "Umm abandon blimp."

The Captian looked up with a pale face,"Are you sure?" The Doctor looked down with a frown a nodded. The Captian got up and shouted abandon the blimp!"

The unicorns ran back up to the Doctor, "What are your plans to get us and the earth ponies off.

The Doctor smiled and looked at Tick Tock "Do you still have the key." He smiled back as pulled a key out of a small hole in his goggles, he walked to the middle of the deck and held it up with his magic. Suddenly wind started blowing accompanied by a loud gong and chimes. From within the wind came a blue box that faded into existence.

"Everybody in." Tick Tock shouted as he ran inside.

Soon ponies began to group around it, "we can't all fit in there," one of them said.

Seconds later the doors opened again "Are you coming or not," soon all of the ponies were sucked in by something from inside. Tick Tock ran back out and shouted, "Tell the pegasi to let go."

The Doctor smiled, "Derpy tell them to let go, we have the tardis back." Tick tock smiled as the name came out of the Doctor's mouth. The Doctor ran into the tardis soon followed by Tick Tock. Within seconds, the same sounds returned as the blue box disappeared. Derpy let go of the blimp along with the other ponies.

Kauter smiled as he saw the blimp heading straight for a large building "That was.." Kauter's eyes shrunk into small pin points.

Kauter flew back towards the blimp "Where are you going," Derpy shouted after Kauter. Kauter got on deck and took hold of his sword that was implanted in the deck. He was about to fly away when he both saw and heard a filly crying at the end of the deck. Realising the distance between the building and the blimp, Kauter pushed off the deck ,helping him gain more speed, and flew towards Dinky. He threw his sword into the deck, grabbed Dinky while still holding onto the sword and used the momentum to swing them towards the stairs. When they were just above the stairs he stuck the sword into the deck again flinging themselves down the stairs. Derpy looked in horror as the blimp smashed into the top of the building. Holding Dinky in his left arm and grabbing onto a pole behind the stairs with his other Kauter looked down into the chasm below them.

"Ok kid how well can you fly with your magic."

Dinky looked up at with him and frowned, "I can't, I can barely use my magic."

Kauter focused on the whole on the deck that led down about a hundred feet onto a large open floor. "I'm not going to hold on very well here in just a minute."

Dinky turned her head away from the ground and asked why.

"My sword stabbed me and I'm possibly going to bleed out." Kauter let go of the bar sending them both towards the hole in the deck. He hooked his talons into the deck while at the same time almost dropping Dinky. "Oh yeah kid my head is swimming now."

Dinky frowned as she looked at the ground and frowned, "I'm sorry that we are going to die because of me."

Kauter let out a small pained laugh "Were not going to die because of me, you're going to live and I will die because of myself." Dinky looked up in confusion when his sword came flying out of nowhere. He grabbed it a stuck it deeply into the deck, "Hold on now dinky." He lifted Dinky up and made sure she was hanging onto the sword before he let go. He frowned as he fell listening and the sounds of the wind as death greeted him.
