(To be rewritten) Ep 1: Tick Tock (Pilot Episode)

Derpy Hooves yawned as orange light glistened off her coat. A smile grew apon her face, as her wing stretched and her hooves touched the floor. She gave a quick yawn before walking to her closet. Pleasantly, she dawned her uniform and chuckled to herself. She felt like today was going to be a good day.

After brushing her teeth and eating a hearty breakfast of blueberry muffins, the pegasus mare walked out of her one-bedroom home to greet the dawn with a hop to her step. As she walked to work, she couldn't help but greet everypony that passed by her way. Even a strange brown Earth pony who looked as if he would burst to tears at any second, but he walked away.

Ah well, it didn't matter to her anyway. In just one more day, she would get to experience the Summer Sun Celebration! She's also heard rumors about a new pony moving in on that day and can't wait to meet them.

INTRO

Today had been more nightmarish then Derpy thought it would be, causing her to walk with her head hung low. First, the Postal office was name packed then anticipated, and despite her 'problems', she was forced into Mail Processing. Her new Boss was very enraged when he saw just how little work was done by Derpy and refused to listen to reason, purposely ignoring it almost. She could have sworn he wore a smirk when she wasn't looking.

It didn't get better after that. Soon, he decided to book her for a delivery on Sunday at the edge of town; The same date and time as the Summer Sun Celebration. He felt awful. Mr. Shujin was cruel for no other reason than his own amusement. Either way, he was hoove picked by her old boss and there was nothing she could do about it.

She couldn't quite, it took her months just to get the one job and now some jerk was gonna take it away? Hah, she could almost laugh if it didn't hurt too. Nobody else would hire her due to her... problems, so she just had to wait him out.

She looked up at the clock tower as it ticked away at the time. There where eight ticks to represent the sixteen hours in an equestrian day on its face and the big arrow pointed close to the seven. Almost Midnight.

Derpy looked up to the stars and the moon pitifully and thought for a moment. Under her breath, she suddenly spoke.

"Hope something better comes along..." Then she chuckled and walked home.

"Hello, anypony order a pizza?" Screeched a young mare as she opened the doors to the old Clock Shop. Webs lined the walls as broken clocks had their pieces scattered around the floor. The stairs going down were exposed, so she walked them deeper into the shop.

"Hello?" She screamed again, reaching the darkened bottom. "Could I be at the wrong spot?" She asked herself. That's when the sounds started; Ticking. Something down there was ticking an unnerving tick that echoed as if in a damp cave. Behind that ticking was the pitter-patter of hooves against the wooden floor. Letting out an audible gulp, the mare walked deeper into the room and came face to face with two doors. She tried to open the one to the right door but found it locked. Shrugging it off, she shakily opened the left one and stepped inside.

Bolting out of the room with a deftly yell, she made her way up the stairs. Turning back, a shadowed creature in the form of a pony struggled to catch up. Heading towards the exit, the mare let out a chuckle, unaware of the loose round clock pice in her path. Flailing to the ground, she turned onto her back and destroyed her through with a blood-curdling screech.

Blood stained the empty Clock Shop, as the ticking sound made its way downstairs. Accompanying was the sound of a loud and meaty bump at each step.

Derpy decided to take a detour and visit the new pony in town since she had some time and Pinkie Pie would be throwing the new girl a welcome party. Twilight Sparkle sounded nice, though she didn't look happy. She especially seemed unhappy after accidentally drinking the hot sauce and running to her room. She would have stayed longer, but Derpy knew better than to be late on a package.

As she walked, she forced a quivering smile and tried to act happy. twenty minutes until the celebration and she was going to miss it. This would be the second year she wouldn't attend. The first being back when she was a filly... She spent that whole day there her mother after-

"Ah Ditzy glad you decided to come back, did you bring the package?" jumped out a male voice, causing Derpy to snap back to reality. Standing in front of the old Clock Shop was a brown stallion with spiked dark brown hair, a green tie, and an hourglass cutie mark that looked as if the sand was actually falling. He was consecrated on pointing his wired sound stick around and didn't look at her fully.

"I'm... Sorry?" Derpy replied with a tilt of her head.

"You know what I mean Ditzy! You joked about going to the Summer Sun Celebration to watch Nightmare Moon returned after I asked you to bring me the package yesterday! You're dedicated, I'll give you that. Haven't seen you... all... day..." Having said his lines, the stallion turned his head to look at a confused Derpy holding a cardboard box the size of her head. "Celestia Dam it Ditzy you didn't!" He yelled walking up to Derpy, causing her to flinch. "I can't believe you! You tell me about this great big mystery, lead me to this store, and even convince me not to look for you, and you can't even lie about what you're doing-Er, Going to do?! Shame..." He grabbed the box and walked back to his spot.

"... What..." Was Derpy's only response.

"What is right Ditzy! What, as in what were you and or going to be THINKING?!" He escalated. "You're lucky this is a real threat or I would just left you here! Feel lucky that I'll go pick you up after Luna runs off in about... give or take ten minutes!"

"What." Was Depry's only response. It took the station a few seconds of continuation before slapping his face with his hooves.

"Stupid Doctor, she won't meet you for another week! She has no idea who you are!" He exclaimed. After straightening his tie and giving off a little cough, he put on a little smirk and spoke. "Ello, I'm The Doctor and it's a pleasure to re-meat you, Ms. Derpy. Now, I'll explain it all when we are supposed to meet but for now- Er, Where are you going?"

Derpy had turned around and briskly tried to walk away. She paused however as The Doctor asked his question and turned to face him. "Why do you want to know?" She asked.

"Because you're walking away from me whilst I'm talking."

"... I'm not going anywhere."

"Is it opposite day? If not, why are you lying to me?"

"... What's opposite day?"

The Doctor slapped his face again. Before the conversation could continue, a crash rang from the store, starting both ponies. Quickly, The Doctor opened the box, pulled out a strange-looking watch, and turned to Derpy.

"Look, I'm sorry for stopping you. My intent was just to explain what was happening then send you off, but now I'm just going to skip to the part where I tell you to go. So go." He said sternly. Running into the building, Derpy had the right idea to listen to him. But as she turned to leave, a loud bang could be heard followed by a surprised shriek. Derpy turned back to the building with a horrid feeling and, after some hesitation, ran inside.

She stood still has her eyes met the two sets of blood; One dry and one fresh. Both, however, had small droplets that lead down a set of stairs.

Nine Minutes.

Down the stairs, two doors stood. Derpy tried the right door but found it locked. Trying the left resulted in the opposite, and she quietly pushed it open. As she looked inside, she had to bite down on her hoof as her eyes dilated and her through tightened.

Skin. The room was filled with skin strawn around the walls. Organs lined shelves in jars and blood was scattered around the floor. However, in the back entrance of the room stood a scene straight from a horror novel; A chair blood-soaked chair held the stallion by tieing around his hooves. His head was bleeding, yet he held a wide grin.

What was strange was the pony holding him hostage. They were a purple stallion with no cutie mark, no tail, and an orb for a head. Admitting from said orb was an odd ticking sound.

"Doctor..." He spoke softly, "Give me the code for the Vortex Manipulator and I will not experiment on you as I have done with the rest."

"I will, if you can answer my three riddles-" The Doctor was promb=ptly marked. "Owch, I'm serious!"

"No... You are not..." It spoke, the ticking getting louder.

"Come on Yags, have I lied before- Don't answer that." The ticking grew louder.

Five minutes.

As 'Yags' turned to grab something revealing the front of his face to be a that of a clock, The Doctor glanced over to Derpy and winked. He then spat a fumbled piece of paper in her direction just in time for Yags to turn back to him with a surgical knife.

On the paper was a long string of text and letter marked 'Code'; "BSreTe9ee5TyrpcDndaolh6TI7t8l0emXitoHe7OCg".

Two Minutes.

The Doctor laughed in Yags face.

"Do not laugh, you and all of time will soon die!"

"Yah well, I would have to disagree. Hay just a quick question, what's in the door to the right?" At this, the ticking grew more mellow.

"Door? To the right?"

"Yes, the door to the right. The second door."

"Second door? There is only one door." This caused The Doctor to tilt his head. He would have pressed on but...

One minute thirty seconds.

Suddenly, The Doctor's eyes began to dilate as his mouth frowned a small frown. "For the love of Celestia, I just realized I'm going to die! Please, don't kill me!" To this, Yags began to tick louder.

"Yes, you will die! Perhaps I'll spare you if you give me the code."

The code. Derpy held the code. She felt like running away with it, but then she remembered the wink. He wanted her to have it, yet he isn't telling Yags about her holding the moist code. Then he winked again with a flash of a grin in her direction. Derpy's eyes lite up.

One minute.

"I have the code!" Derpy yelled. As Yags turned to face her, The Doctor smiled wide.

"No!" He screamed. "Don't give it to him! I was stalling him!"

Yags ticked even louder as he ran over to Derpy. He pushed her down and grabbed the code.

"Yes... Now all shall die! Listen, Doctor, as I type this code in letter by letter..."

Thirty seconds.

" BSreTe9..."

Twenty seconds.

"ee5TyrpcDndaolh..."

Ten

"6TI7"

"Please stop think about this!" The Doctor yelled

Five

Yags laughed "I already have... t8l0emXito"

one

"He7OCg!" Suddenly, Yags flashed out of existence with a loud zap. The Doctor laughed himself silly.

"My god I can't believe it worked! The plan was meant to be done with my Ditzy, but you did great!"

"What... Where did he go?" Derpy asked confused.

"Easy; You see, Nightmare Moon returns today by using the Stars as her exit. By using a hacked Vortex Manipulator, I was able to give old Azathoth a one way trip to the moon!"

Derpy stared in shock. "Did... Did you say, Nightmare Moon?"

"Hm? Oh yes, Lunas back. Now you see I kept time by looking at his head. You see, he's an enemy from your- well our future- or well my past- Er, Look we fight him and you trap him in a clock! Now I know why you chose a clock and it is brilliant! And-" The Doctor Stoped talking once he noticed Derpy had passed out from shock. "Great Wrikering STallions, you can't be serious... Ugh." The Doctor easily broke free from his restraints and placed Derpy on his back. As he walked out of the room, he couldn't help but notice the lack of a right door. Just as Yogs said, there was only one door.

The Doctor shrugged and walked away.

---

Alone, Yogs swore to the planet below him. The Vortex Manipulator was nothing more than dust on his hooves. This was his second and last defeat at the hooves of that mad pony! Even if he swore revenge, he would never get... Down bellow, Derpy was tucked into her bed, Ditzy was laughing, The Doctor was trying to scold her, and Yogs was nothing more than a bad dream.
