stories of the doctor. (part 1)

As the doctor conversed with the celery he did not notice a pair of Reddish orange eyes looking at him from around a stable, the eyes blonged to a yellow mare with a red mane and tail.
the mare stepped back into the shadows behind the stable and pulled out something from a saddlebag. she tapped a slight rhythim on the stable wall and the world seemed to ooze into the point where she tapped.

the mare took a quick look around before quickly stepping through.

Reminant of Equestria

"Ahh apple bloom, i did not expect you back so soon." said a zebra stallion manning the dimensional gateway
"ah have information the mare of defense may want to hear Zenith." applebloom said as she dropped the saddlebag into her locker before running up to the halls of New Canterlot.
if she were to glance out the windows as she were runnning she would have seen a sight that was now familiar to most ponies,
what was canterlot was just a pile of rubble, the earthquakes caused by the detonation had caused old canterlot to slide off the mountain face and break up when it hit the ground, princess luna had then decided to rebuild just on the outskirts of ponyville, which in turn was renamed new canterlot officially, most ponies still call it ponyville though.
applebloom ran past the door to the books and branches library, the department of uniforms, the ballroom and bakery, the rainbow factory and weather center, and the fluttershy memorial zoo till she arrived at the big door with the symbol for the new lunar republic engraved on its wooden face.
she thought about it, pulled out her trademark red bow that granny smith made for her, tied it onto her head, and then knocked hard at the door.
"Enter." a voice said from beyond the door.
applebloom opened the door and walked in up to the bright red desk of the mare of defense and saluted
"Captain Bloom with information for General Jack."
"at ease bloom. after all, aint we family?" Applejack said as she walked over to the red desk and sat down. the orange mare looked over at her younger sister and smiled.
"of corse sis." applebloom said sitting down opposite
"now. whats got your tail in a knot?" applejack said setting her generals cap next to her own old and well used stetson.
"well.. remember yall sent me to the paddock on earth to gather information without bein seen? well it seems there is a pony working for ralph."
"ahh. he has himself a stallion for a pet? not much new on that.. most people take slaves like that after they beat them, jus part of human history." applejack looked at her sister

"no sis. this stallion, was not a slave.. he was more like.. well ah cant really describe him. ah mean he was the only stallion on that there farm.. not uh... gelded."
"so he is.. someone important to ralph?"
"ah would say so sis." applebloom nodded.
"did ya happen to catch his name?" applejack said reaching for her planner
"ah shure did. one of the other mares said it was "The Doctor"."
applejack paused, then reached over instead to the phone.
"code red, codeword doctor. immediate meeting of all generals and the princess in the war room at once." applejack hung up the phone as an alarm started ringing and applejack shouted over to here sister "come on captain, you have a meetin with the princess"

some time later
--------------
as applebloom entered into the council room six ponies sat around the round table in the center of the room.
applejack nuzzled her sister before heading to her own chair, inbetween big mac and the chair reserved for fluttershy.
"Why hath this meeting been called General applejack?" luna said on her throne
"Captain bloom has some information regarding pony enemy number 1"
"very well, applebloom. you can speak." luna said
"yes ma'am. i was off doing mah mission..." applebloom recounted what she had said to her sister.
luna listened glancing at each pony to gage their reaction.
applejack had already heard it, so she had no reaction.
rarity was just listening.
pinkie pie was bouncing in her seat.
big mac seemed like he was dead, exept for the occasional twich of his ear.
rainbow dash had her forehooves folded and was listening.
and pipsqueek, lunas assistant, was jotting down notes for review later.
"so.. this doctor.. who is he?" luna asked aloud.
"i-ive seen him."
all the eyes in the room turned to the trottingham colt.
"h-he's like fire.. and ice.. and rage. he's like the night and the storm.. and the heart of the sun." pipsqueek said
"well.. it seems you have a story to tell us little pip." rarity said with a smile.
"i-it began before i moved here from trottingham..."
-------------------
many many years ago
-------------------
I, pipsqueek, lived in fetlocksley a little hamlet outside of trottingham. on any other day you would hear the sounds of children playing and farmers hard at work bringing in the wheat and grain to be shipped to trottingham then redistributed to the three main citys of equestria, las pegasus, manehattan, and canterlot.
but for the last couple of weeks foals and fillies have gone missing. the adults were scared and wondered what could have happened, "mantacores, Boggarts, and jabberwocks" they said under their breath.
most ponies cried, some packed up and left, but me... my incentive happened when my friend went missing.
the adults said he was gone. snatched up by the forest. i wanted to find him.
i grabbed my sword and my pack and decided a one day trip into the forest would have been the best idea, a trip to find the greatest hero i knew.. one who's stories are even known in every city in equestria, Robbing hoof.

i knew the stores by heart and knew that him and his Cunning Colts would be stationed always at the greenwood tree in the center of the forest. i also knew that he would be willing to help me find my friend and the other foals.

how wrong i was.
