The morning light reached the ancient travelers eyes, he had run so fast and so far he hadn't known anything but the running. All that had changed when he was reunited with an old friend and met several new. Naga and Twilight had invited him to live in their house in the basement in exchange for occasional foal sitting, something he loved/feared/loved/ to do. He was going on five times that Silver Sky had managed to nearly collapse all of time and space. And every time he came back he was stopped short of telling Twilight and Naga to find a new foal-sitter the little guy pulled a cute stunt like chewing on a control in the T.A.R.D.I.S. or smiling in such a manner that even a Dalec would "Daww".

He brushed the dust from his coat and picked the cooing foal from the exploded hunk of metal that used to be a cyber pony and entered the blue box of wonders he traveled in for so long. "So much for the world of chew-able objects" the brown stallion said to the burbling child. "Gahh gub bahh" Silver said taking the sonic screwdriver the Dr. had given him when he first came home from the hospital out of his mouth. "My thoughts exactly," the time pony responded flipping a switch and sending them through time vortex back to home.

They landed with a resonating "Dong!" and he took the foal out the double doors and into the tree that they both called home. Or at least one did Silver just babbled and gurgled in a "language" only the Dr. could speak and insisted was real. They made their way to the kitchen where the lord of time prepared a bottle of formula and feed the foal who greedily drank as soon as the bottle was offered to him. The Doctor walked into the next room cradling the foal in one arm feeding him with the other walking on two legs having originally been a humanoid creature before arriving in this dimension accidentally. That was one of the best days of his life.

A tired (not from sleep) pair of alicorns descended the staircase into the main living area of the library, the blushed when the Dr. laughed but perked up at the sound of Sky giggling with his sitter. Twilight took over feeding Silver and Naga and the Dr. took a seat on the couch and flipped on the news. "Today we are proud to present an announcement from the princess herself to commemorate this hearths-warming day..." Naga turned the volume down and produced a small box from behind his back "Happy hearths-warming Dr." he handed the box to the earth pony next to him. "And you too" he said giving Naga a gift in turn. "What about you and Twilight?" the Dr. asked curiously. "Oh," Naga said grinning evilly, "we just finished exchanging gifts." The time lord shut up and unwrapped the gift, inside a small device shimmered and floated out of the box. It expanded and formed itself into a small spider-like robot that landed on his shoulder and scurried up to his head beeping and whirring. "Little device i invented, it has a multitude of applications and uses but mainly I designed it to do maintenance on the T.A.R.D.I.S. so you don't have to constantly be fiddling with all those cables." Naga said proudly. "Neat, thanks." the Dr. said looking up with a smile at the little device "Now open yours." he said. Naga obliged and opened his box to find a clear sphere containing a miniature black hole. "Wow how did you do this?" Naga asked fascinated. "I isolated the... um.... I captured it in a sphere of indestructible.... glass..... stuff?" Naga nodded and continued to stair at the fascinating object in his hooves.

Twilight entered the room and sat down next to Naga Silver in her lap having just finished burping him, "Sweetheart don't forget we have to visit my parents today." she said putting her head on his shoulder. He swore under his breath "Damn, I hate visiting your parents every time we do I feel like your dad is going to blow my head off the first chance he gets." Twilight looked at him sympatheticly "Well you did take his daughter from him, and then fuck her. And get her pregnant so in his mind you perverted me." she leaned in close "But little does he know that happened long before I met you."
