Chapter 1: The Muffin Button
Chapter 1: The Muffin Button
In the world of Minecraft, all was quiet, except for the occasional moo from that awkward cow. The skies were partly covered by blocky clouds and the sun was at its peak. The lake water was still; light would not reflect off its surface, leaving it looking as boring as ever. The silence was eventually broken by what sounded like an revving engine.
The image of a blue police box faded in and out. The image became more solid with each pulse. Eventually, the TARDIS finished materializing. A grey pegasus and a brown earth pony bursted out the front door. The pegasus was clutching the earth pony's neck tightly. Their eyes scanned their surroundings, but they were too confused and dazed to process any of the information.
The pegasus on the left gave a sigh of relief. "I can't believe we're aliv—"
The earth pony gasped suddenly, "Derpy! Don't... breathe."
"Why, Doctor?"
"The air might be toxic." The Doctor struggled to finish the sentence. His lungs were straining from the lack of breathing.
Derpy exhaled the potentially poisonous air sharply and backed slowly into the TARDIS. The Doctor closed the door on his way back into his ship. Inside, alarms and sirens were going off. A few lights were flickering and sparks were spewing from the TARDIS's control panel. The Doctor groaned after seeing that his favorite couch was on fire.
“Alright. Now that we're done crashing, Derpy, I want to ask you one question. What did you do?!” he shouted.
“I-I don’t know! I just pressed this button over here, then the TARDIS started getting all shaky and stuff.” Derpy pointed at an oddly shaped button.
“I thought I told you not to touch anything!” The Doctor facehooved several times.
Derpy stomped her hoof. “Hey! Don’t blame me! Why would you make the button look like a muffin if you knew I couldn't resist their delicious and moist goodness?”
“What?! That button does not look like a muf—" the Doctor took a step towards the button. "Well actually, it kind of does."
“See! I told you! Hmmph.” Derpy crossed her forelegs and turned her head away from the Doctor.
"Remind be to get that button replaced before this happens again." The Doctor poked the button a few times gently without actually pressing it. "I don't even remember this being here. Oh well, small problems aside, let's see where we've landed."
The Doctor examined a few screens attached to the TARDIS’s control panel. “Let’s see now... gas composition... hmm.” He tapped his chin with his hoof. "Seems close enough to Equestria's. Radiation levels, fine. Temperature, fine. Time of day, day. Weather, pleasant. Location...." The Doctor hit the side of the side of the monitor and read it again. "That's odd."
“What’s odd?” Derpy asked.
“This place doesn't seem to be marked anywhere on the map. Nonsense! It’s probably just a bug in the system." The Doctor shut off the monitor. "Let’s open the doors now, shall we?”
“Way ahead of you.” Derpy was already standing by the closed doors of the TARDIS. Upon opening them, ordinary sunlight was beaming against Derpy's now puzzled face. Her eyebrow was raised and she was scratching her head. “By the way, Doctor, this world seems kind of… off.”
The Doctor headed towards the door. “What do you mean by that?”
He stood beside Derpy and looked out the door. Just outside the doors, a pixelated cow was staring straight at the Doctor and Derpy. “Mooooo,” uttered the cow.
“Umm, Hi?" Derpy smiled awkwardly.
The cow blinked. “Moo.” Derpy didn't know what to do so she just stared back. The Doctor returned to the control panel, leaving Derpy alone with the pixelated cow.
The Doctor opened a few metal grates and inspected the internals of the TARDIS. After about a minute, he finished troubleshooting his ship. “I think I may have found our problem.”
“Please tell me now, because this cow is really creepy.”
“Come over here." Derpy trotted over and observed the monitor. The Doctor pointed at a red blip on the screen. “You see this red blip?” Derpy nodded her head. “That red blip represents where we are. Notice how it's inside this little blue sphere." The screen zoomed out, revealing the sphere. "Now, look at this.”
He zoomed out further on the screen; the blue sphere was now just a small speck on the screen. A larger green sphere was revealed. “This sphere is your universe and the walls of this sphere are its edges. The strange thing is that this universe is contained within your universe. That doesn't happen. Usually, every individual universe is parallel to one another. They’re called parallel for a reason; they don’t intersect. But this one.” The Doctor pointed at the smaller sphere, “For whatever reason, is inside this one,” he then pointed to the larger sphere. "You following?"
Derpy nodded with droopy eyes. "Yep."
"The point is, this universe is abstract in comparison to any other universe because it isn't a parallel universe. It’s some kind of… intersecting, universe, thingy. Bah, that’s a shoddy name. I’ll think of something later.” The Doctor turned his attention back to Derpy who was half asleep and drooling slightly. “Derpy?”
She snapped awake instantly. “Huh? Oh yeah, a universe like this is probably unstable and could collapse. If that happened, we'd die."
“You are absolutely right.” The Doctor smiled at her.
“Sooo… we should leave this place.”
“Exactly.”
“Right now.”
“That’s right.”
“Why aren't we doing it?”
“The TARDIS is broken,” he said flatly.
Derpy let out an exasperated breath. “Of course it is. Can you fix it?”
“Yep. Technically she’ll fix herself. That button you pressed used up a lot of energy, enough to tire out the ol’ machine. She just needs to take a break for a while, that’s all.” The Doctor patted the console of the TARDIS.
“How long will that be?” Derpy crossed her front legs.
“Anywhere from a week to a month. Earth time.”
“Oh." Derpy said bluntly. "I remember you once said that it was near impossible to travel between universes. How did we end up here then?”
“Either the walls between the universes are dissolving, or someone spilled soda into the time vortex.”
“Soda?” Derpy inquired.
“Yes, soda. It doesn't sit too well with the time vortex, and if I recall correctly, I may have spilled soda into the time vortex a couple years back. It just took this long to finally do something. Good thing we didn't die! I didn't expect the soda incident to catch up to me this quickly though. The huge energy boost from the button must have acted as a catalyst of some sort.” The Doctor headed back to the door and looked out of it. Derpy followed him. “You know, this universe doesn't seem so bad. We could probably take a look around.”
“Out we go then?” Derpy smiled with excitement. The Doctor nodded his head. The cow’s eyes followed them as they stepped outside the TARDIS. The Doctor took mental notes about how blocky the world was. He approached a tree and looked closely at it, observing the square edges and pixel like features. The Doctor knocked on the tree and listened closely to the sound it made. It sounded just like how any other tree would sound if one had knocked on it.
“Hmm...” He sniffed the tree, then stuck his tongue out.
He started to bring it closer and closer to the tree. “Doctor!” scolded Derpy. The stallion retracted his tongue back into his mouth and turned his attention to his companion. “Were you going to lick the tree?”
“Quiet down, Derpy. This takes concentration.” He brought his tongue back out and started bringing it closer to the tree again. He hesitated for a moment, and then tasted the tree. He recoiled backwards at the repulsive taste. “BLEH! It just tastes like any other tree!” The Doctor spat, trying to get the taste out of his mouth. “Bloody hell, it’s awful!”
Derpy rolled her eyes. “Of course it tastes awful. It’s a tree. What made you think that was a good idea?”
“It’s helped me once before.” The Doctor took a moment to spit again. “And I thought it would help me again.” He spat again at the end of his sentence.
“Riiiight. That reminds me. I kicked somepony once and that helped me. So, according to your logic, I should kick the tree?”
“Well uh,” the Doctor tried to find the right words to say, “I suppose that would mean kicking the tree is—" Derpy stood on her two front legs. "No, Derpy, wait!”
Before the Doctor could stop her, Derpy gave a powerful kick to the tree. There was a dull thud and a small crack formed in the tree.
The Doctor was suddenly intrigued. “Try that again, Derpy. That seemed to have done something.” Derpy gave another powerful buck. With a small thunk noise, the tree block seemed to have shrunk into a much smaller block. It floated in place momentarily before going inside of Derpy.
She shrieked in fear. “Doctor! It’s inside of me. Get it out, get it out, get it out!” Derpy ran aimlessly.
The Doctor’s hearts skipped a beat. “Don’t run, you’ll only make things worse for yourself! Come on, hold still, let me check you out!”
Derpy kept running, and the Doctor struggled to catch up to the panicking pony. Derpy looked back towards her rear, hoping to see the block leave her body. When she turned her head back, she smacked face first into a tree and fell back.
“Ouch, are you alright Derpy?”
She rubbed her forehead. “Owwww. Who put that tree there?” she said wearily.
The Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver and scanned her body. “There’s nothing inside. I don’t think the block, or whatever it was, actually went inside of you.”
Derpy tilted her head sideways. “You don’t? That’s a relief. I thought maybe I was going to turn into a tree, or it was gonna eat me inside out, or turn me into one of those Dalek thingies you always talk about.”
The Doctor facehoofed. “We should get some rest, the sun is setting.”
“Really? But it was afternoon like ten minutes ago.” Derpy looked up at the orange sky.
“Either way, let’s head back to the TARDIS. I don’t think I’ll trust this place at night.”
The light inside the ship escaped through the open doors, illuminating the area in front of it dimly. Derpy entered the TARDIS first. The Doctor glanced at the outside world once more, then retreated into the safety of the TARDIS. He shut the door behind him, shrouding the surrounding area in darkness once more.

hmmmm interesting...i love minecraft
"The Tardis crashes into the Minecraft universe leaving the duo of ponies stranded in the pixelated world with nothing but a broken Tardis and EACH OTHER."
But... Pinkie's one of the characters... unlesssssssssssssss....
...
Naaaah...
Hm.
Yeah, this is alright.
Pinkie is probably playing Minecraft and they got sucked into her game.
1413080
if she can break the fourth wall then she can also be able to go and join a game and know what its about and help the doctor and derpy
The Muffin Button?!
Could it be...?
It's alright, though you should try getting a bit more descriptive of the sorroundings and character's feelings, as it almost feels like I'm listening to a podcast rather than watching someone play Minecraft.
Also, You're slightly off with the Doctor's character, watch a bit more of the show and read some good fics maybe?
Lastly, this needs more commas, it almost seems like you're saying every sentence in one breath.

...this...isnt my story....i didnt write this?
1413177
Hang on, did I quote you?
I'm sorry, won't happen again.
1413184
i was confused i thought you where telling me how to improve the story even if it wasnt my story...confusing
Pinkie = Herobrine
That would be a twist
Oh, this is going to be good! Cool premise, and you seem to know how to write... I'll follow!

All fear lord Pinkiebrine!
Truth be told, It was the title picture that drew me in. I WANT DERPY TO DEFEAT OR TAME A CREEPER IN THE MOST COMICAL WAY POSSIBLE!!
: I DEMAND THIS TO BE TRUE!
Sadly, you can't make muffins in minecraft.
Also, you have to have them go into the Nether, mine diamond, AND at least SEE the Ender Dragon.
I also think it would be interesting for them to die, only to "wake up" back in the beds they last slept in. Now THAT would be something to make the doctor go haywire.
very interesting, might have been cooler if the tardis disappeared after they stepped out of it so they would have to make/build a shelter. also inb4 that wood block saves derpy's life, calling it
It's my lucky day! Another good Minecraft fic //dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Cloudchaser_dealwithit.png
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Combining the Tracking feature and the Fav system was one of the dumbest ideas that the mods ever thought of. But I'll keep an eye on it.
Cant wait till they meet their first creeper
1414485Feel like sleeping the night away under the stars? Let me sing you the song of my people.

>> 1023nelly MUFFIN BUTTON FTW
Wait...... If the universes were ripped into..... Does that mean that some of the creatures from Minecraft are in Equestria?!
........continue..............
Pinkie pie will be herobrine.. or minecraft is the thing she uses to get around..
millions of nether portals!!
Oh yeah, another Minecraft cross-over!
Instant favorite
You are tiny. I looked into the MCEdit and the MCEdit looked into me. I see every bit of your existence, and I reset them to zero. I erase your entity numbers from the overworld.
1413139 I think he's based more off Tenent than Smith in this.
I like it great job!
Holy what the buck attention ahhhhhhhhh!!! I'm not used to this... The pressure. Oh god the pressure.
I feel like cowering in a corner like Fluttershy would.
Anyway, I consider Doctor Whooves to be a different regeneration of the Doctor so personality, appearance, etc, would be different. That's just a lame excuse for my poor characterization.
Seriously though, thanks everyone for reading this!
I've been wanting to do a series where Luna and Co. have random adventures in Minecraft. Already I'm seeing a lot of this pop up.
1415781Pressure? That's funny. You have this up for about an hour or two, and it gets featurd with about 250 views. What the buck fimfiction.
Anyways, you say pressure? Let me play you the song of my people.
th05.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2011/199/a/1/rainbow_dash_is_not_amused_by_fabulouspony-d40hkyf.png
Oh, also. This should have a crossover tag.
1415874
I don't get their feature thing very much either. I'm not used to attention, at all, so if this thing has like 100 views, I'll freak out. Thanks for the heads up btw.
1416030No problem. And yeah, their featuring is a bit of a hit and miss. Sometimes there will be a story with like 1000 views, 30 faves, and 100 thumbs ups, and it'll get passed over for one with like 200 views, 5 faves, and 10 thumbs ups. I think they just take a bunch of fanfic names, post em on a wall, tie a blindfold on, and throw some darts. Lo and behold, the less favorite ones get hit by darts. God it's today all over again. I had a mock trial in government, and I was on the defense team. We were prepared as hell, and I managed to completely ruin the credibility of one of the lawyers on the prosecution team. The "jurors" go out and come back with a verdict of GUILTY. They then told us how they came to that conclusion. They took someone's car keys and flipped them.
God random things are annoying. Except when they're not. Then they're just funny, like Pinkie Pie.
Pinkie... In Minecraft... OH DEAR LORD THIS MEANS CREEPINKY!
1413722
The Doctor would regenerate. Unless he was killed while doing that. Then he'd respawn.
1415781
Would you be interested in an editor? I noticed a few small problems with this chapter. It's nothing I couldn't fix in about ten minutes, maybe fifteen tops.
1413722
Doctor: Derpy! how did you tame that creeper?
Derpy: Muffin Button.
1416085 That'd be great man. So uh, do I just send you the doc. Or... what. Sorry, I'm new to this. PM me.
1416062 You just made my day.
Don't like minecraft, but I do like the Derpy/Doctor team-pair, so I'll track it and read it later.
Ahh... Minecraft... Good times...
Well, by 'Good times' I mean "Got my butt handed to me by two creepers, a zombie, a skeleton, and a cave spider ganging up on me on Easy Mode".
My reaction to that was to switch to Peaceful mode, acquire a bucket of lava, and proceed to burninate the snot out of the forest area I spawned in.
After that, I focused on expanding my mine-home by digging down.
I dug into a cavern, which led to an abandoned mine shaft, which led to a ravine, which led to another abandoned mine shaft, which apparently led to the center of the Earth, judging by all the lava source blocks(And thanks to all the water source blocks I gathered, obsidian) I encountered
Good times... Gooooood times.
My only regret? My phone had died while I was playing, so I couldn't play "I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire" while burning the crap out of the forest.
This... THIS!!!
Im watching you and this story
WIN!
1413299 [the next morning] derpy walks out of the tardis and a creeper explodes, killing her. the doctor runs out to make sure she's okay, sees her corpse sitting on its side, and starts to freak out. derpy's body then disappears and she walks out of the TARDIS and asks him why he's crying.
thatsss a niccee tardissssss you have there it would be a shame if something happened, sssssSSSSSsssSsSSS
Yay, Derpy/Doctor!
