This is part of the Doctor Whooves Universe. I used an OC, Moon Star, from NoctourneOfShadows. That guy is tied for my ultimate bro! Check his stories out when you can.

Set back

A green pegasus with purple hair was standing in a lab looking bored. He had yellow eyes, darker purple hair on the tips and lighter purple hair on his roots. His cutie mark was a parchment with scribbles on it. He stared as the other ponies were putting some last minute stuff onto a special wrist watch. "You sure it will work now?" the pegasus said seeing them put the last parts. "You nearly blew up the last text subject you used."

"Shut up!" a white unicorn with green hair said. "This time I have reversed power for the distributor and sent it to the central console. There's no reason for it to go into over load this time."

"That's not what I'm most worried about. Will it actually send me back in time?" he said getting closer to see that it was fully functional and ready to be tested.

"Yes," a yellow pegasus with blue hair said to him grabbing the watch and handing it to the green pegasus. He put it on and tightened it on his front left hoof. "We have already tested it out alone and it works perfectly fine, but we need a real test subject to try it out and make sure it doesn't do anything else out of the ordinary."

"Are you sure you want to test this out on yourself?" another unicorn said to him.

"I designed it Moon Star. I don't want to risk anypony else's life like what almost happened to the last one."

"But..."

"No! Bro! Listen, I'm going to be ok. You don't have to worry," he said stepping behind a giant room made out of bullet proof glass.

An intercom said to him, "Ok, we are going to have you go just 5 seconds into the future," the yellow pony said to him from behind the glass.

"Ok," the green pegasus said as he set his watched for the proper time, "ready."

"Go," the yellow pony said simply flipping a few switches that controlled the cameras.

He pressed down on the button and saw that the clock had moved its hand to an extra five seconds into the future. It seemed like nothing happened. "Did it work?" he said looking up now.

"Come see for yourself," the yellow pony said over the intercom.

He walked out and they replayed the video footage. It showed him press the button, then he disappeared. Five seconds later he reappeared in the same position as if nothing had happened. "That's beautiful." he said feeling high emotions in himself.

"Bro? Are you going to cry?"

"No! I just have something in my eye," he said rubbing them. "Let's do it again," he said going back behind the glass. "Let's kick it up to two minutes."

They reset the cameras and waited for him. "Whenever you're ready."

He moved the watch again then pressed the button. Something was different about that time. He felt nauseous for half a second, but then it passed. He looked up again and they nodded their heads. Again he got out to see what had happened though their eyes. "There's only one irregularity this time," the white unicorn said rewinding the film to the spot where he glowed yellow right after he clicked the button and right before he left. It must have happened in less than half a second.

The pony went back behind the glass, "Let's try again. I'll do the two minutes again," he said moving his watch again and pressing the button. This time he felt nothing. He went back to review the film and this time there was no yellow glow. "Maybe it was just something with the lighting. Lets go to ten minutes."

He went back behind the glass and set the time for ten minutes into the future. He pressed the button and felt an electrical shock. "Son of a...!" the time on the watch then started moving randomly. "What the?" he said looking at the watch.

"Sir! Take the watch off!" the yellow pony said.

The green pegasus couldn't tell what the problem was. For some reason he couldn't see that he was glowing yellow. He grabbed onto the watch anyways and was going to take it off but accidentally hit the button as he grabbed it.

The green pegasus suddenly disappeared. They looked at their screens to play back the footage to see if anything visible had happened to him.

"Maybe he'll be back in ten minutes!" Moon Star said worriedly.

They all waited for ten minutes. Then thirty. Then an hour. Then five hours. They had all fallen asleep trying to wait for him to come back, but he never did. The very next morning they all woke up and still nothing. "Moon, we need to go report this," the white unicorn said.

Just as he said this a giant yellow glow emanated from behind the glass. It was too bright so the had to look away and close their eyes.

"Ah! Mother bucker!" he said feeling extremely nauseous again, but this time it lasted a lot longer. He held onto his stomach and then looked up. His eyes went wide. "What the...?" he said out loud looking at the crystal castle that he was in. "Where... OW!" he yelled. His head was killing him.

"Hey!" he heard a voice call from behind. It sounded deep but understanding. "What are you doing here? And who are you anyways?"

The green pegasus turned around and saw... Shining Armour! "But, you've been dead for thousands of years!" he said his head feeling like it was going to explode. he looked at his watch and could make out the numbers. It said 10,000 pt. "Ah, buck!" he then passed out.

Shining ran over to him and saw that he was unconscious. "Medic!" he yelled not daring to lift him in case something was broken.
