The Doctor Whooves Diaries 1 part 6

It had been two months since the Doctor had left Derpy in Trottingham, and it hadn’t taken long to find employment and somewhere to live. Derpy obtain a job working in a local bakery, and all were amazed at her magic with muffins. They did not draw attention to her eyes, merely accepting her for who she was.
‘This time and place seem to accept me more than my own time frame.’ Derpy said, sitting down next to Dinky.
‘What is home like?’ she asked, nuzzling up to her mother.
‘Well, P0nyville is a very beautiful place. The p0nies there are nice…sometimes.’ Derpy let out a sigh. ‘If you ever get to visit, and a pink p0ny offers you a cupcake, look her in the eyes and say “Muffins are better” and walk off.’
‘But they are better mom, why do I need to say that?’
‘That p0ny and I have a rivalry; her cupcakes versus my muffins. But when all is said and done, she is still nice to me, and we hug and make up.’
‘Okay mommy.’  Almost falling asleep, she curled up with her mother.
‘I have tomorrow off, shall we go for a trip to the lake.’
‘Yes please mommy.’ Dinky said with a yawn.
They both fell asleep on the couch in front of the roaring fire.

A large distance away, a group of four p0nies stood in front of a fire made of green flames. In the flames, they saw Derpy and Dinky sleeping on their couch.
‘Well, we found them.’ Said one ‘Really think this will work?’
‘You idiot’ snarled the second ‘Without the immortal protecting them, we can get enough to live for 3 months.’
‘And if the Time P0ny returns?’ said the first one.
‘THEN WE HAVE IMMORTALITY!’ yelled the third one, his voice both booming and muffled.
The forth one chuckled. All three turned to look at him.
‘Dear brothers. The Time P0ny will not give in so easily, that’s why if he does return, these fillies will be the bargaining chip.’
‘Do you really think he will fall for this?’ said the first one
The forth on stepped into the light of the fire. His features were finally visible. He had a short crew cut mane with a grey coat. His eyes were those of a mad man, and he had a smile that screamed insane. His left eye twitched as he talked.
‘Oh but he will. He is the Doctor, of course.’

Derpy and Dinky woke early in the morning and made their way down to the lakefront. They stopped in at the bakery to grab a fresh loaf of bread for the picnic they had planned. As they sat donw on the soft grass, Derpy looked towards the sky.
‘It’s just another month and he will be back.’ Dinky said, plopping down next to her.
‘I know,’ Derpy replied ‘I just wish he didn’t need to go.’
Dinky started to chase after butterflies around the lake while Derpy started to drift into a day dream. She was running around so much, Dinky didn’t see the blue colt she tripped over.
‘WHAAAA!’ she screamed as she fell over.
In a matter of seconds, Derpy had flown over to see the commotion. Dinky was rubbing her head as the blue colt sat up. He had a messy black mane and his cutie mark was a yellow smile.
‘I am so very sorry.’ Derpy said ‘My daughter doesn’t pay attention like she should.’
‘No no no. It’s all okay. I’m just hoping she didn’t get hurt.’
‘Yeah, I am okay.’ Dinky walked over to Derpy. ‘I am sorry I tripped over you.’
‘I’m Derpy, and this is Dinky.’ She said with a smile.
‘Hello, my name is Scoots.’

Derpy invited Scoots over to join their picnic to make up for any inconvenience they had caused. As he took a bite of the muffin, he looked at the both of them.
‘So, are you a single mother?’ Scoots asked.
‘Um…no.’ Derpy said, swallowing a bite of sandwich ‘My husband had to go away to Canterlot on business. He works as a clock repairman.’
‘Well might I say you and he have raised a fine filly.’ Scoots looked at Dinky. ‘So cute, I could eat her right up.’
Dinky smiled at this. She liked receiving complements from other people, even though she received more than enough from her mother.
‘So, Scoots. What do you do?’ Derpy asked.
‘Oh, I volunteer at the orphanage. I like to see children happy, so I do my best.’ He looks towards the clock tower at the centre of town. ‘Darn, I have to be somewhere. Thank you Derpy; it was nice to meet you both.’
Scoots trotted off with a large smile on his face.

 After a fun day of frolicking at the lake, Derpy and Dinky walk home. They are only 5 minutes away when Derpy notices a p0ny in a black hood was following them. She purposely made wrong turns and crossed the street to correct them and he followed. This was starting to scare her a bit.
‘Dinky, if I say get on my back, you do it.’ Derpy whispers to her.
‘Yes mommy.’ Dinky replies
They turn down an alley way to find a dead end. Derpy turns to see the cloaked p0ny standing at the open end.
‘Dinky, on my back.’ Derpy shouts.
Dinky does as she is told and Derpy soon lifts off the ground. She feels home free until something tugs at her entire body. Her and Dinky’s body are covered in a black aura that is pulling them back down to the alleyway. Derpy is slammed onto the cold hard ground. She looks up to see four p0nies blocking her path now, but she couldn’t make out any of them.
‘Now now Miss Hooves. Can’t have you flying off’ called one p0ny ‘Not until we have what we need.’

Derpy stood up, standing over Dinky. She strained her eyes to looked at them, but the darkness of the alleyway still made it hard to make out who was blocking her path.
‘Who are you?’ Derpy yelled.
‘Oh, don’t worry’ came the same voice ‘We have to go anyway.’
In a flash of light, all six p0nies were teleported to a large field with a small green fire between them.
‘Now we can have our chat without being interrupted.’
‘Who the buck are you and what do you want from me?’ called Derpy, the darkness still around her and the fire not helping.
‘Tell me, Miss Hooves,’ came a familiar soft voice ‘How is your husband? Or should I say the Doctor?’
‘Scoots? Scoots, what are you doing?’
A soft chuckle could be heard, and the fire between them grew, lighting up the area and helping Derpy see her attackers. As she looked at the four p0nies, her mouth dropped.

In front of Derpy stood four p0nies, all of average size. She recognised the blue p0ny with black scruffy mane, Scoots. Next to him stood a grey p0ny with a short black mane, his cutie mark a pair of boxing gloves. The next to him were two p0nies that scared Derpy the most. One wore red and gold armour, with not a single piece of flesh showing, and the other was the p0ny following her in the black hooded cloak, but now she could see he was a skeleton with green light for eyes.
‘Who….Who are you?’ Derpy said.
The p0ny with the short mane spoke first. ‘I am Sherm-Anon, you know Scoot-Anon. That is Sorc-Anon,’ pointing to the armoured p0ny ‘And on the end is Lich-Anon. We are the Anons of Blood.’
He walked closer, lowering his head to meet her scared gaze.
‘As for what we want, that is simple. If your Doctor does come out to save you, we will harvest him for life. We will be ETERNAL!!’
‘You were the ones who attacked us? He…He won’t return you know?’
‘Well, if he doesn’t return soon, we will harvest you.’
Dinky let out a whimper and hid behind Derpy again.

‘HOW COULD YOU DO THIS SCOOTS?!?!’ Derpy screamed.
Scoot-Anon chuckled. ‘You really think I am that sweet little p0ny from the park. “Oh yes Miss Derpy, I work for the orphanage.” You really must be bucking stupid!’
‘You see Miss Hooves,’ Sherm-Anon continued ‘If the Doctor doesn’t come rushing in to save you, we can all use your bodies to keep us alive. Lich-Anon will harvest your bones, Sorc-Anon will remove all your magic. Scoot-Anon will steal your little filly’s childhood innocence, and I….Well let’s just say mine is quite disturbing.’
‘You will not get away with this!’ Derpy said
‘What, the Doctor will arrive in his bright blue box and save the day? I’M COUNTING ON IT!!!’
‘No, you won’t succeed because we won’t let you catch us.’
Derpy picked Dinky up and started to run away, only to be caught in a magical field. She felt like a massive weight was being pressed onto her back, holding her down to the ground.
‘Now please Derpy’ Scoot-Anon ‘Running away will not help you now.’
Derpy suddenly felt her skin start to rupture around her back. She screamed in pain as her skin was peeled off her shoulders. She looked over at Dinky, and saw her crying in pain.
‘STOP THIS!!’ screamed Derpy. ‘Please?’
‘YOU WILL NOT GET MERCY FROM US!’ yelled Sorc-Anon
‘This will be over fairly soon.’ Hissed Lich-Anon ‘But no less painful.’
There was a large explosion behind all of them and the Anons of Blood turned to see a brown colt standing where there spaceship was once hidden. He looked at them with utter anger, and gave them a wry smile.
‘Hello, I’m the Doctor.’

>Sherm-Anon’s point of view:
He never raised his voice, never using physical measures, not once. That was the worst thing, what scared us the most. The fury of the Time P0ny. And then we discovered why, why he had left his most precious of somep0nies and ran from us. Why this Doctor, who fought gods and daemons, who battled the King of Darkness . Not because he was afraid, but because he was merciful. He did it to give us the chance to run and hide as well. We did not take this chance.
 He wrapped Sorc-Anon in unbreakable chains forged in the centre of a white dwarf, and locked him on an asteroid in a field of dark matter. He tricked Lich-Anon into a temporal rift in a black hole, to be trapped forever. He still visits Scoot-Anon every year, and every year he hopes to be forgiven. He was locked in a pocket dimension, chasing after the daughter he always wanted. For now, Scoot-Anon will keep running, chasing something he will never obtain.
As for myself, I was frozen in time. I was placed on the edge of the galaxy system where he resided, as a warning. Attack his family, his friends, even the people her never liked but still dealt with everyday; Do this and face the fury of the last great Time P0ny. We wanted to be immortal, and he made us so.
