I was flying through the Everfree Forest trying to get away from these weird robot things that kept saying exterminate and seemed to be everywhere. I eventually managed to lose them by ducking into a small outcropping in a cliff. Shortly after I heard someone call my name and the Doctor came into view. Hearing another one of those weird robots approaching I quickly grabbed him and pulled him into the outcropping.

“Are you alright Doctor?” I asked once the robot passed by.

“Derpy! Thank goodness you're alright!” He said hugging me.

“What are those things?” I asked after he let go and seeing another one in the distance. “They're all over the Everfree.”

“They're called Daleks. But I don’t know how they got here. They shouldn't even exist in this world.” The Doctor explained. “In any case we need to get to the TARDIS.”

“You mean that big blue box that’s bigger on the inside and goes Wowwowowowowow.” I asked looking around for more Daleks.

“It doesn't go-never mind, yes the big blue box that goes wow.” He said facehoofing.

“Alright.” I said before we exited the small outcrop.

“Going somewhere Doctor?” An evil voice said from behind us.

“Discord!” The Doctor said as we turned around to see the Draconequus floating above a group of Daleks.

“Hahahaha, hello Doctor Whooves. Have you met my new friends the Daleks?” He said resting his arm on one. “’Cause they really want to meet you.”

“The Doctor is required.” One of the Daleks said in metallic voice.

“All in good time my deformed metal friend.” Discord said, patting the one that talked on the top of its head.

“I know what you're planning Discord and you can forget it! I'm the Doctor. I'm 2051 years old. I'm a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous. I'm the Oncoming Storm, the Bringer of Darkness, and we are going to stop you.” The Doctor said taking a step forward. “Derpy.” he whispered to me well Discord was ranting about something. “When I give the signal, I want you to run to the TARDIS as fast as you can and get everything ready to leave.”

“Right.” I said getting ready to bolt for the time machine.

“Now!” He shouted pulling out his sonic screwdriver from his collar and zapping Discord with it as I ran for the TARDIS, using my wings for a bit of extra propulsion.

I managed to get to the TARDIS unheeded and quickly started to get it ready to leave. I had seen the Doctor do it on more than one occasion so it wasn't long before the TARDIS roared to life ready to leave the second the Doctor arrived.

A few minutes later I looked outside to see the Doctor being chased by Discord who was throwing energy balls at him. I waved to him, tell him that everything was ready but was spotted by Discord who then through one of the energy balls at me and was hit square in the face causing me to stumble backwards and hit the close door button before I collapsed on the floor. As my vision turned dark I started to hear a voice in my head.

“For Five Score! Divided by Four! Your memories removed, your body confused! For your insolence you must pay, Cast off to a land far far away! Before I scatter the six, this is just the start of my tricks! Your mind shall be weak, your outlooks bleak! Forgetting everything and living like a fool, You have all lost, now no one can stop my rule!” The voice said slowly getting quieter as if it were getting farther away.

I woke up on a soft bed in a room with brown brick walls, a small desk in one corner of the room and full length mirror in another. It took me a second to remember where I was but as I shook the sleep from my head I remembered everything that had happened the previous night. I looked down at my body to see that I was now a hundred percent Derpy. I carefully got out of bed and shakily stood on all fours.

“Ok.” I said to myself. looking at the mirror. “One step at a time. If my mom's cat who’s dumb as fuck can walk with four legs, I can walk with four legs.” Taking one step at a time I eventually made it over to the mirror only stumbling a few times. “So this is the real me?” I said at my reflection. “Not bad.” I said making a cute face. The show was really accurate with my looks.

I found it kind of weird that I can see normally with my eyes being crossed but just chalk it up to some form of magic. Anyway I practised walking around some more and very soon had the hang of it. I was about to try flying when the door slid open.

“Morning Derpy.” Doctor Whooves said from the open door way.

“Morning Doc-” I began but stopped when I turned around to see he was full pony. “Wait I thought you were a day behind me with the transformation process.”

“Ah, yes. You must have fallen asleep at that point.” He said walking over to me and looking at himself in the mirror. “You see, walking into the TARDIS last night jump started my regeneration and I turned back into my pony form as well as getting all my memories back.”

“So now what do we do?” I asked looking up at him.

“Well my original plan was that when you woke up we’d hop in the TARDIS, go back to Equestria, warn Celestia of Discords betrayal and set everything right. But unfortunately the TARDIS is in a bit of disrepair from when it crashed and not being in use of the past 25 years.” He said shaking his head a bit. “ But the kind people here at Torchwood managed to repair some of the damage already so it won't be too long until repairs are completed.” He explained. “So are you up for a bit of Breakfast before you start your lessons?”

“Sure, wait what lessons?” I asked as he put his hoof on a button on the wall making the door slide open again.

“Well some of the Pegasi that have been here for a while have offered to help teach new arrivals that haven't mastered it yet how to fly. The same goes for the Unicorns and their magic.” Doctor Whooves explained as we walked through the halls. “So, what are you in the mood for?” He asked when we arrived at the cafeteria. “They have a lovely assortment of pony friendly foods and the Unicorns have managed to make hay taste like and in the shape of bacon. Anyway," He said not giving me time to answer. "Steven has offered to show you around so he should be here soon. I’ve got to go work on the TARDIS so I’ll see you later.” He said before leaving.

I went over to the servery and grabbed a tray with my mouth, almost knocking over the stack, and moved down the counter looking at all the food laid out. All the food had labels that read one of three things; Pony Friendly, Ponies Only or Humans Only.

“What can I get for you today?” A light blue Unicorn with a spatula cutie mark and her orange mane in a hairnet asked from behind the counter.

“Oh um, I’ll have, um…” I said nervously looking at the pony friendly food.

“Oh, you must be the young mare that came in with the Doctor last night. Derpy Hooves right?” The blue Unicorn asked.

“Ya, what’s your name?” I asked.

“Emerald Jewel.” She said introducing herself. “You know, you’re lucky to end up being one of the main background ponies, a fan favourite at that. Not to mention the Doctors assistant. Me I’m just a simple mare from Trottingham who wasn’t even in the series. If it wasn’t for the dreams I wouldn’t even know my own name.” She explained. “Anyway what can I get you for breakfast? We’ve got hay bacon, oats, barley, grains, daisies, hash browns, toast with butter, crumpets, muffins.” Emerald listed, winking at the last one.

“Um I’ll have some hay bacon, some hash browns and two muffins please.” I said as she levitated my order on to my tray. “Thanks.”

“No problem. Drinks and cups are over there.” The blue Unicorn said nodding to a drink dispenser like the kind you would see at a fast food restaurant next to a small fridge and coffee machine.

I picked my tray up again careful not to spill anything and walked over to the drink dispenser.

“Hmm what to drink, what to drink.” I thought to myself not sure what was safe to drink. Unlike the food, the drinks weren't labelled beyond what they were.

“If you’re wondering what’s safe to drink it all is.” A voice said from behind me.

“Oh it’s you Steven.” I said turning around to see the older gentlemen smiling at me. “So everything’s good here?” I asked confirming what he just said.

“Yep. A couple of the staff members here at Torchwood turned into ponies and volunteered to be the test subjects for what food and drinks ponies could digest. Turned into bit of a drinking game when we got to alcohol.” He said with a laugh as I pressed the button for coffee. “Here let me help you with that." He said picking my tray up for me.

“Thanks I said wrapping my hoof around the coffee mug and walking over to a free table.

“No problem. I’ve seen how some of the Earth Ponies and Pegasi struggle a bit with carrying stuff when they’re just starting out. we’re actually in the middle of developing devices that will make it a bit easier in the future.” Steven said putting the tray down and sitting across from me.

“So Steven,” I said taking a sip of my coffee. “I’ve been meaning to ask. How did you know The Doctor was The Doctor?”

“Well you see, as I said last night we’ve been waiting for The Doctors return since the TARDIS crashed here back in 1995. Over the years we’ve managed to extract information from it’s main computer including what each Doctor looked like after each of his regenerations so we’ve been able to get actors who look close to what he did during a particular reincarnation, including when he was in Equestria.” He explained as I ate my breakfast. “Anyway when all this pony business started up we know that it would only be a matter of time before he showed up. Then earlier this past week, right when we were about to give up hope, we came a cross his profile. Not just his acting one put his school one too, which revealed his talents in science, math, history, and physics yet he went for an acting career. Intrigued, and being the only lead we had, we gave him an audition. When he entered the room we found it uncanny that he looked like a humanized Doctor Whooves with shorter and a bit darker hair. When he read the lines we knew it was him because he didn’t even look at the script we gave him but managed to recite it, even continuing on to one that wasn't even on his copy. After taking it over with the others we decided to give him the part so we would have easy access to him when he started changing. When his agent called back to tell us he accepted he also told us he sounded a little strange and hoped that wouldn’t affect his acting. When we heard that I made the call for you guys to met us here.”

“Wow. So what about Captain Jack Harkness?” I asked.

"Well his real name is James Harkness, we changed his name in the show at his request, and he's in Scotland right now getting readings on an open rift." Steven explained.

"I see." I said as I finished up.

“So ready for a quick tour of the facility before you begin flying lessons?" He asked.

“Sure I said putting my tray and mug at a little window that lead into the kitchen, with a sign that said “return dishes here”.
