Doc's Decision
Chapter 3: THE END
Previous ChapterChapter 3
“Well, well, well, what do we have here?” A voice asked behind them. Everyone turned around wondering who it was, except for Doctor, who stood as still as a statue.
“I see you have made your choice Doc, so you choose her?” Even though he wasn’t looking, Doc knew she was gesturing at Derpy, “The derp-eyed mail mare. No-pony likes you Derpy, face it! He loves me more.” She said.
“That’s not TRUE!” Doc said and he spun around.
“What did you say?” The unicorn asked.
“Why don’t you face the truth River, you always thought I was the one, that I loved you as much as you loved me, but I think you’re wrong, River, after all this time, I finally realised, you don’t understand me enough. I didn’t love you as I should of, not all parts. Mind, Body and Soul.” Doc said in a stern voice getting nearer to her every word, until he was at a distance where he could only see her eyes. “I loved you for mind and body, not soul, soul is the most important, and that was missing to me, why did it take me so long to realise that?” Doc asked himself. While the fight was going on, nobody noticed that Carrot-Top, Sparkler and Dinky had left.
“I think we should go...” Dinky had whispered to Carrot-Top.
“Yes, I think we should,” she whispered back.
“All this time, I felt you were drifting off, into your own world, without me, leaving me out when you are on huge adventures, for only a matter of seconds for some ponies, while for you, you’re gone for months on end, and now you repay me with this? River shouted, “This is what I get for spending ALL MY HARD EARNED BITS ON YOUR LIFE? FOR WORKING MY FLANK OFF FOR THIS!” She made herself even louder, “WELL YOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED, ONE DERP EYED GIRLFRIEND COMING UP” She yelled
“SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP ABOUT ME! WHY ARE YOU INSULTING ME LIKE THIS WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU?” Derpy shouted, tears rolling down her face. There is always hope, always. She thought to herself.
“HHmm, let’s think, you stole my husband, wasted my money and I AM NOW PRETTY MUCH HOMELESS!!!” Blue River Shouted.
“I like it! You guys are really good actors, you should get into the spotlight more often, you guys sound really realistic, like you are actually having a fight!” A random voice came from the kitchen. Tia walked out.
“Are you crazy Tia?” Derpy asked.
“No, seriously, we aren’t acting.” Doc said, everyone calmed down.
“Oh, look who’s back, Doc’s old girlfriend!” River said. “Why don’t you two get together? Instead of the derp eyed one. Tia’s so much prettier!” She continued in a girly accent.
“Would you shut up with the comments, PLEASE! DON’T YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TOO SAY?? I’M SICK OF IT! YOU ALWAYS HAVE LOTS OF NEGATIVE THINGS TO SAY, INSTEAD OF ‘HOW WAS YOUR DAY’ IT WOULD BE ‘WHAT BORING THINGS DID YOU DO TODAY’? WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? YOU USED TO BE NICE!” Doc shouted. His shoulders suddenly felt so much lighter, just getting that off his back. He carried it around with him every single day. Now that it was gone, he felt so much better. Even though he and River had lots of fights, he felt like this was the one to say that in.
“I NOW HAVE SOME ONE WHO ISN’T OBSESDED WITH SPENDING EVERY SECOND OF THEIR DAY WITH ME, SHE AT LEAST RESPECTS MY PERSONAL SPACE, MY LIFE, WHO I AM, I MIGHT NOT HAVE ANY MAGIC OR BE ABLE TO FLY, BUT I AM STILL SOMEONE SPECIAL IN HER LIFE. ISN’T THAT WHAT EVERY PONY WANT’S?” Doc never felt better, he felt like he was on top, no one could knock him down, no one.
“Is that all true?” Derpy asked.
“Yes, yes, it’s all true.” Doc said, suddenly he felt like he tumbled down the hill of glory down to the creek of misery.
“DIDN’T I GIVE YOU THAT? WHAT DOES SHE HAVE THAT I DON’T?” River asked
“I LOVE HER SO BUCKING MUCH!I LOVE HER WITH BODY, MIND,AND-And MOST IMPORTANT” He paused for extra effect “ SOUL”
“SHE IS MORE THAN ME? YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME? I THOUGH YOU WERE: MOST LIKELY TO GET THE PRETTY MARE IN HIGH SCHOOL? NO! You got me, now you got her. One last chance. If you go to her, I’ll leave, now, I’ll pack my bag, you have 5 minutes.” River said, she tried to calm down. But as she ran upstairs, she was crying her heart out. Why? Why me? She thought.
“I love you too Doc... I love you,” Derpy said.
“Hey Tia?” Doc asked.
“Yup?” Tia replied.
“Why did you think we were acting just a few minutes ago?” Doc asked.
“Only my fellow actor’s would realise. You wouldn’t understand.” Tia replied.
Doc spent his thinking time pacing around the room, ‘No you don’t love her’
‘Yes you do, what did you think of her the first time you saw her?’
‘Which one?’
‘Blue River you idiot!’ Voices kept on shouting at each other in his mind. Then River came down stairs.
“So, what’s your choice?”
“I-I-I, I choose Derpy,”
“Really?” Doc turned around, Derpy was crying,
“What’s wrong now, Derpy?” Blue River says in a sarcastic voice.
“Doc,” Derpy looked in his eyes, “You thought I had been with another, didn’t you?”
“Yes,”
“Well, you are my first love, Dinky was adopted, I worked at an adoption centre, but I wasn’t allowed to adopt her, then I became the mail-mare, then she was gone... And-and-and,”
“I get it now, you just look alike, it’s ok.”
“I’m going now, I can’t take anymore mushy-mushy stuff,” And Blue River left the room.
“Well that will be the last of her,” Doc said, hugging Derpy, “Well, let’s get your stuff in here, Dinky can sleep in Sparkler’s room, we can just buy a bunk-bed.”
“Agreed,” And they left the house,
“HEY! WAIT UP FOR ME!” Tia shouted, galloping towards them.

2 years later, Tia also met the colt of her dreams.
