"Keep running! Don't stop, keep running!" I could hear my mother shouting for me to run faster. I panted and continued to run, faster and faster I ran. I could hear the sound of fire crackling as it devoured everything in its path. The smell of smoke and wood burning filled my nostrils as I ran. "Go! Don't stop!" The last thing I heard was her yelling and then...a tree caught fire and began to fall in front of me. I doged it but my mother...didn't make it. I turned around to face her, but she was too far behind. The tree had blocked her path. "Mom!" I shrieked at the top of my lungs. "Go now! Run while you still can I can't go any farther", my mother exclaimed. "No! I'm not leaving you!" I tried to get her, but the fire got in my way. "Sparkler..I love you", mother said in a sad tone. She screamed as the fire devoured her."Nnnoo! Mom!" I yelled for her as two guards took me away. "We have to go now!" One of them said. "Noo! Mom!" I yelled and yelled for her as I watched her burn. My town..gone forever as fire burned it to the ground...


"Noo!" I screamed as I awoke from my nightmare. I panted and was damp as sweat dripped down from my intense dream. My name is Sparkler and I am a unicorn pony. Just a filly to be exact. My hometown was burned because of a pony whose jelousy got the best of her. Both were sisters that ruled nature. One of them got upset that the others hated her destructive way when it was her duty to make way for life. She controlled natural disasters while her sister controlled all that allowed life to flourish. They lived like normal ponies, so we saw them often. Well now, lets back up to what I'm doing to make things a little easier. I got up and took a drink from a stream that was close by. "Ouch! Oh no, my wounds getting worse," I said as I took a look at my wound on my right foreleg. I tried everything my mom taught me for treating a wound when you were lost. It didn't work for long though for it just got worse. "Better get a move on if I want to see civilization again", I stated as I made my way to find a town of some sort. Slowly I walked , but I was at least making some sort of progress. "Must..find," I panted, "civilization or I could..", I collasped falling to the ground. I sweated and panted. My whole body was wrapped in pain it even hurt to cry so I tried not to cry at all. A single tear managed to roll down my cheek. "Oh who am I kidding? I'll never make it like this," I said. My ears perked up for I heard a sound that began to get louder by the second. Using one of hooves to flap my an ear up and down I thought that I was hearing things, but now something began to come into view as it materialized out of thin air. "Ok now I'm seeing things," I said to myself. Now I could see it clearly as the sound dissapeared. It looked more like a blue box, but as I looked at the writing on the top it said police public call box. I got up and limped towards it wondering what in Equestria it was. Before I got any farther somepony came out of the..whatever it was. "Okay now, where am I now?" said a colt who had a chestnut brown coat and both his mane and tail was a darker brown. He had a funny accent of some sort, Trottingham accent I think. "Who are you?" I yelled for some reason, I must be that disoriented. "Oh hello there. I'm the Doctor and who might you..my god what happened to you?" he asked in a surprised tone. "I'm Sparkler and boy do I have plenty of questions for you," I replied. He laughed and said," I had a feeling you'd say that. So, what did happen to you?" he asked. "My town..it was burned down making me the last of what used to be a wonderful place," I said sadly. "I need some help in looking for civilization, you know, a place for me to live in," I asked. "Come right in. I know the perfect place for you to live at," he replied in a happy tone. For some reason, I couldn't help but smile around him. I felt right at home already, like..there was no need to look any farther for a place to call home. "Thanks, I really..woah. It's bigger on the inside!" I exclaimed as I entered a huge room. "Oh I do love it when others say that," he laughed. He closed the doors to the..the. "Hey umm..Doctor is it? What is this thing?" I asked the colt. "This Sparkler, is the Tardis," he replied. "Tardis?" I asked the Doctor. "Yep. It's a time machine," he exclaimed. "Ooohh," I said in awe. "All righty then, onwards and upwards!" he said. "Where are we going?" I asked him. "To ponyville," the Doctor replied.
