Sorry for being so late. Life, work, and writer’s block(These shorter chapter are harder to riff than they look) got in the way a bit, but now it is finally finally done! Today we will be reading Book 2 of the Starlight Saga. A sequel that improves quite a bit on the original. Twow’s talent really starts to show in the story despite its amaturness, and it actually has some good ideas I think. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Next time we will be reading the third book and the fourth book, which sadly never finished the story. I know the fourth book only has one chapter, but I have some funnies ideas for it.

The next two stories I plan on doing are An "Unreal" Day by Brian Jacko, a Unreal Tournament crossover and Dax's Despair by Dark Angel AW. Dax’s Despair was requested to me by Dark Angel AW himself. Thank you for doing that. I think I will enjoy riffing your story.

If you have a fanfic recommendation, comments, or criticisms please leave a comment or PM me at my fimfiction account or my blog on Tumblr. Please NO clop or fanfiction with extreme violence. I am not going to do those. I want to do a more family friendly series and it is going to be relatively clean. Besides everyone else does them. Okay, I might do one for a special occasion. But otherwise no clop or extreme gore fics. Ok, enough rambling. On with the fic!

Special thanks to twow443 for letting me do his story. You are awesome

Doctor and Ditzy’s Science Theater

by Rixizu

Episode 12 - Part 1

“Ah ha!” The Doctor proclaimed in triumph. He slid the component into an empty hole in the panel and screwed it in; putting the final touch on the device he had been working on for months.  It spanned three rooms, and had thousands of components. It was a mismatch of wires, circuits, gears, and other odds and ends. From the outside it looked like a confusing mess and might give someone a headache if they looked at it long enough. The Doctor smiled. If everything goes according to plan, they should be out of this place tonight. He has had more than enough of this place.

The plan is simple. This device will create the illusion of their escaping by making it seem as if they have been teleported out, then it will create hologram copies of the Doctor and Ditzy to distract Dinky and Mr. X while they quietly open a secret, almost invisible door the Doctor found in the garden and enter the inner workings of the facility. The machine will mask their presence from the cameras and sensors. Then they will confront Dinky and Mr. X, defeat them, and get the Tardis and escape. Quite simple really.  The machine is so complex, there is no way the facility’s computer will understand its true purpose and inner workings. If it tries to disable it, it will only disable one of the many dummy systems the Doctor created to fool it. The true workings of the device are so hidden and inconspicuous; the Doctor doubts it will ever find them.

The Doctor left his lab to cleaning himself up. He didn’t want to confront those villains looking like a complete mess. His mane and fur were unkempt and he smelled of sweat and grease.  He was in no condition to face their captures. The Doctor left his lab to take a long deserved shower.

“Hey Doctor!” Ditzy greeted the Doctor as he entered the main meeting room. His hair was still a little wet.

The Doctor trotted up to her and whispered, “About ready to get out of here?” Ditzy smiled and gave a slight nod of her head. She then acted like he said nothing at all.

“I’ve spent too much time in my lab, how about a walk through the garden after the experiment?” He then whispered, “After the experiment.”

“That sounds fun.” Ditzy nodded and smiled. “You really need it. All that time in your lab isn’t healthy.”

The Doctor gave a small chuckle. “Probably not.”

“Hello my little test subjects.” Dinky interrupted them.

“Oh, you’re back.” Doctor noted. “I was a bit surprised when you didn’t show up last time.”

“Yeah, you’re always here exactly on time.”

“So where were you?” The Doctor asked.

“Did you get sick?” Ditzy wondered out loud..

“I was out town on business.” Dinky answered simply.

“I see, so who was that Mr. X guy from last time?” The Doctor pressed. He was determined to get as much information as he could.

“She’s a partner. You didn’t think I did this all alone, did you?” Dinky replied.

“I’m the one that does all the odds and ends.” Mr. X piped in. “Running this facility is so much work you won’t believe.”

“So you’ve decided to join us.” Quipped the Doctor.

“Hey, might as well.” It sounded like she gave a shrug.

“Hello X!” Ditzy said happily. “Say, what type of muffin do you like?”

“Can’t say I’ve ever given it much thought.”

“Come on, there has to be some type muffin you like.”

“Chocolate chip I guess.” Mr. X gave the impression that she didn’t care much about muffins.

“Okay! I’ll make some for you later!” Ditzy replied happily. She didn’t seem to notice Mr. X’s indifference.

“Ahem. Anyway, today’s experiment will be ‘The Legend of Starlight-Book 2: Love at Second Sight’ by twow443.”

“He actually made a sequel to that thing?” The Doctor asked incredulously. “Really?”

“I guess he felt the world needed more adventures about Starlight.” Ditzy wondered out loud.

“Apparently.”

“Enjoy.” The experiment alarm went off as soon as Dinky finished her trademark evil laugh. The Doctor and Ditzy nodded to each other and entered the theater.

Chapter 1-All Good Things....

Doctor: Don’t start with an overused cliche.

I woke up on Twilight's rug with a big yawn.

Ditzy: You’re a prince! Why are you sleeping on rug!

Doctor: Why are you sleeping on a rug period?

I looked around the room with a feeling of calm.

Ditzy: The Feng Shui of the room removed all negative energy.

I got up and started to get ready for the day. After taking a quick shower, changing my clothes, cleaning my sword

Doctor: (Star) It might be a bad idea to leave evidence of my serial murders.

and putting my crown on,

Ditzy: You wear your crown everyday?

I yelled to Twilight, “Hey, I'll see you a little later!”

The purple unicorn walked into the room, levitating a book. “You going to hang out with Rainbow all day again?”

Doctor: What about school? You’re only thirteen.

she asked with a smirk.

Ditzy: (Twilight) I better not catch you doing it in the library.

I tapped her on the head. “No, I'm helping Applebloom and her friends today. I've been putting it off for too long.”

Doctor: (Star) Getting covered in tree sap isn’t exactly my idea of fun.

Suddenly there was a slam at the front door. Scootaloo walked in, slightly dizzy.

Doctor: Rainbow Dash is a bad role model. Case in point.

“Come on, Prince!” she yelled. “This is the day we get our cutie marks!!”

Ditzy: (Scootaloo) We are totally going to get our cutie marks in brain surgery.

I followed her out the door, waving goodbye to Twilight. Once outside, I stretched my wings and followed Scootaloo on her scooter.

Ditzy: He was never seen again.

Oh I'm sorry. I never introduced myself. I'm Starlight, Prince of Equestria.

All: Hi Starlight.

My sisters are Princess Luna and Princess Celestia.

Ditzy: Yes, really.

Doctor: The story still hasn’t explained anything about their parents.

I'm a alicorn like they are, but half of my body is human.

Doctor: (Star) I’m a centaur.

I still have the horn and wings of an alicorn,

Doctor: Not exactly. You wear your horn around you neck for some reason.

but the rest of my body is human.

Ditzy: Are you ever going to describe what you actually look like?

In fact, Celestia and I were talking about that when Luna left Canterlot.

Ditzy: (Celestia) You need to stop eating meat. Everypony is starting to think of you as some crazy cannibal.

“Starlight,” Celestia had said. “You do know that we alicorns are virtually immortal, correct?”

Ditzy: Unless you cut off their head of course.

Doctor: (Star) I’m already whining and angsting over the fact that I am going to outlive all my friends.

“I was doing some research, and I realized that we need to step up our search to turn your body back to normal.” she told me.

“Why is that?” I asked.

Doctor: (Celestia) Look at you, you’re an abomination. You look like a bad OC character on Deviantart.

“Because your body is cursed, it nullified the protective charm your body had when you were born.” Celestia had said. “You won't die as easily as others, but you still can.”

Ditzy: (Star) What?! Screw being human! I want to be a full alicorn.

So that was a priority and I knew that Celly would work on that.

Doctor: Don’t! You will regret losing those hands of yours!

Ditzy: You and your hands.

But you might be wondering why I'm living in Ponyville instead of in Canterlot.

Doctor: Tax evasion.

About 2 and a half weeks after I was crowned prince, Celestia had walked up to me when I was in the castle's training yard, practicing with Stormtide and my cutie marks.

Ditzy: It was uploaded to the internet by a guard and became a big hit for its unintentional hilarity.

“Stary? I was wondering if you had a problem living in Ponyville for a while.”

Doctor: (Star) That backwater inbred hick town? Never!

“No,” I said, taking a drink of water

Ditzy: It was that overpriced mineral water stuff.

“I've been there pretty much all the time. What's up?”

“I need to stay in Canterlot, to keep order and Luna has things she needs to do.

Ditzy: She still isn’t level 30 in League of Champions.

Plus, I thought it would be good for you to be with other ponies then just royalty all the time.

Doctor: (Celestia) Cadance is starting to become a real bad influence on you. I found shipping charts in your bedroom again.

My student Twilight agreed to house you.” And that's how I'm living in Ponyville now.

Doctor: Freeloading at Twilight’s house.

Few more things I should address. My sword was called the Blade of Equestria and was my proof of being a prince.

Doctor: Strangely, Luna and Celestia don’t have special swords that prove their princesshood.

Ditzy: I think they just told him that to make him feel special.

Not to mention the fact it was a sweet weapon.

Ditzy: It was made of candy.

Doctor: Delicious and deadly.

The sword's magic was so strong, it had bonded to my soul,

Ditzy: Hmmm. So its possible that Nightmare Moon could easily turn you to the dark side by infusing your sword with dark magic.

making it so I could summon and desummon the sword at will.

Ditzy: (Coughs) Keyblade ripoff.

I had decided to nickname my sword, “Stormtide.”

Doctor: (Star) At night I pet it and talk to it.

Last thing is about my cutie marks. Yes I said marks. On my right hand was a star with beams coming of it.

Ditzy: Why it is on his hand instead of his flank, I have no clue.

Above it was a sun and below it was a moon. The beams of light wrapped around my arm up to my elbow. On my left had was the cutie mark of 6 of my special friends. It was a very rare ability called the “Cutie Stamp.” The basics about it was that whenever I bonded with a pony, their cutie mark would appear on my hand and give me special powers.

Doctor: Like Applejack Form’s deadly ability to use produce against his enemies.

PHEW, that was a lot of words.

Ditzy: (Star) Writing over 100 words is hard!

Where was I? Oh yeah.

Doctor: Wait a minute, since you’re in the mood for explanations, you could explain what you look like.

I was standing with the CMC(Cutie Marks Crusaders) at the top of a hill. The 3 fillies, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom, had hang gliders on their backs.  

Doctor: This can’t end well.

“You sure about this guys?” I yelled.

Ditzy: (Star) Are the rocket boosts really necessary?

“Sure we are, Prince!” Sweetie Belle said. “This'll totally get us our cutie marks!”

“Okay, but I'll stopping this if it gets dangerous!”

Ditzy: (Star) Even though by that time you will probably just be a bloody smear.

I stepped back from them and extended my wings to their full length.

Doctor: (Star) Ugh. Wing cramp.

Then I gave a mighty flap and the air whooshed them off the hill.

Doctor: Blowing the Crusaders off.

I leapt off after them.

Ditzy: (Star) Wait a second, this hill is only 5 feet tall.

Doctor: (Scootaloo) We duh. You thought we would do it off some high cliff or something? We aren’t crazy.

“Alright!” Scootaloo yelled as they glided. “This is great!”

I soared with them, quietly thinking.

Ditzy: (Star) What is the best way to make this look like an ‘accident’.

Suddenly I felt weight on my back. I rolled over and saw Rainbow Dash standing on my stomach. “Oh thanks for the ride, Prince! My wings were getting sore.”

“I told you to call me by my name Rainbow.” I said, pushing her off. She flew up beside me.

The three fillies landed safely and Rainbow and I landed by them. The 3 of them checked their flanks then sighed. “Darn!” Applebloom said. “No cutie marks!”

Doctor: That went surprisingly well…

Sweetie Belle walked over to me and gave me Bambi eyes. “Could we please do it again?”

I shook my head, “Sorry, but I'm going to fly a bit with Rainbow okay?” The three fillies nodded then ran off, shouting ideas to each other.

Doctor: (Scootaloo) What if we tried getting our Cutie Marks in evil?

Ditzy: (Sweetie Belle) Let’s try getting our Cutie Marks in arson!

Rainbow nudged me in the side. “Full of energy aren't they?” I nodded.

Doctor: And that scares me honestly.

Ditzy: Maybe if they put that energy into something more productive.

“Let's fly!” We both took off into the air.

As we flew, Rainbow said, “So how is it going, living in Ponyville?”

Ditzy: (Star) They stopped trying to chase me out of town, a big win I think.

“Little tiring.” I said. “Everypony wants to...be around me.”

Doctor: (Star) Now all they want are favors or attention. Why did I agree to this prince thing again?

“Well you are the prince.” she said. “Of course they all want to be around you.”

Ditzy: Not for you of course.

“Yeah....” As we flew I could tell that Rainbow was....looking me over.

Ditzy: (Rainbow) Dang clothes! They hide all the good stuff!

Whenever I looked at her, she would move her eyes away. We had done this a lot lately, fly together. And I'll admit that I well....I had feelings for her,

Ditzy: I would like to remind everypony at home at Star is only thirteen and Rainbow Dash is in her twenties. This relationship all sorts of wrong.

not that I could ever tell her that.

All: Oh course.

We finally rested on our cloud we had created it by her bunching clouds together and I colored it in.

Doctor: (Star) I made it a pretty pink color!

As we sat, I decided to tell her. “Rainbow,” she looked at me. “I need to tell you something. I....”

Ditzy: (Star) Sneak out at night and watch you sleep.

Suddenly something slammed into me and knocked me off the cloud.

Ditzy: Not Nightmare Moon again!

Doctor: Evil never sleeps it seems.
