A/N: A new deleted scene, folks! Onward!
Sonic Rainboom: Deleted Scene 1: A Connection Is Made/Dr. Hooves In The Young Flyer's Competition?!/A Zygon?!
*The stadium is set. Everypony is seated. Princess Celestia herself is here...doing nothing of any particular interest as usual. It's almost time for the Young Flyer's Competition to begin and the crowd is going CRAZY! I sound just like a sports commentater, don't I? Well anyway, meanwhile in the room where all everyone competing are waiting for the big event to kick in, Rainbow Dash is...oh dear. It looks like someone here is having a mental breakdown or something. Now, this is a sight you don't often see. Rainbow Dash? In a mental breakdown? Letting nerves get the best of her like this? But...why? Well, the reason for that is simple. The first reason is that there are three ponies in the crowd who are known for bullying Rainbow Dash to no end just like Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon do with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. The second reason...well, it appears that Rarity and her new giant butterfly wings Twilight gave her has decided to join the competition too. Why? To show off to her adoring fans! What did you think?*
Rainbow Dash: (pacing back and forth in a MAJOR panic attack) Alright, Rainbow Dash, get a hold of yourself. You can do this. It's just one little flyer's competition. It's nothing to make such a HUGE fuss about, right? You can do get through this competition no problem. No need to panic. Right? (Gulps) R-right? (Begins to sweat nervously) OH, WHO AM I KIDDING?! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING! (Collapses on the ground and curls up into a ball) I can't do it! I just CAN'T do it!
Derpy: (who is already in line, sees Rainbow Dash and goes to her) Rainbow Dash, are you ok?
Rainbow Dash: (still in a ball) No! I'm going to fail, I'm going to lose!
Derpy: Aw, I don't think that'll happen, Rainbow Dash. You're an awesome flyer.
Rainbow Dash: (peeks out at her fellow pegasus) You really think so, Derpy?
Derpy: (nods) Yeah, you're one of the best fliers I know, and I bet that you'll do such a great job that you'll win hooves down.
Rainbow Dash: (sits up at this and nods) Yeah, you're right, Derpy. I can win this. Wait, why are you taking part?
Derpy: (shrugs) I thought I would try and have some fun.
Rainbow Dash: Right.
Lucy Packard: (turns to the first waiting pegasus) Okay, contestant number one, you're up first. Make everyone proud out there.
Orange Swirl: (salutes) Yes, ma'am! (Flies through the curtains)
Derpy: Oh. That's my cue to get back in line and wait for my turn. I hope I can make a good impression to all the ponies out there in that crowd. Wish me luck, Rainbow Dash. (Gets back to where she was originally standing)
Rainbow Dash: Uh...good luck, D-Derpy! (Looks at the number two attached to her flank) Oh no! I'm number two! I can't go out there yet! I still need more time to properly get ahold of myself! (Desperately looks around for somepony to switch numbers with) Uhhhh...let's see...I...um...uh...gotta think fast...uhhhhhhh...(spots a brown pegasus eating some hay) Aha! (Sneaks over to him and switches numbers with him) Eyah!
Lucy Packard: (as Orange Swirl finishes flying) Okay, number two, let's go! And be quick about it! We ain't got all day, y'know!
Rainbow Dash: (now hiding behind that brown pegasus) Uh oh. Gotta do something quick. Umm...(gasps) I know! Uh, excuse me, sir! (Nudges the brown pegasus)
"Dr. Hooves": (loses balances) Whoa! (Falls into the hay pile he was eating) Oof!
Rainbow Dash: Uh...oops. (Laughs nervously) Sorry about that, sir. Here. Let me help you back up.
"Dr. Hooves": (growls) No, thank you, madam! I am PERFECTLY capable of getting up MYSELF! (Gets up and turns around to confront her) Honestly, who do you think you are to nudge me like that? You don't see ME doing the exact same thing to YOU, do you?
Rainbow Dash: I'm sorry, sir! Really, I am! I was just trying to...(suddenly recognising this pegasus's face) Hey, wait a second! Dr. Hooves? Is that you?
Derpy: (breaks her stance) Huh?! Doctor?!
"Dr. Hooves": Uh oh! (starting to sweat nervously) Umm...errrr...yes! Uh, it's me! Dr. Hooves! Here in the flesh...standing right in front of you...with no one else around paying much attention to me!
Rainbow Dash: Uh...I can SEE that, Doc.
Derpy: (goes over to see the familiar looking pony) Dr. Hooves? Is that really you? (Gasps in delight upon seeing the face) Oh my gosh! It really IS you! Oh, how wonderful it is to see you up here with all of us pegasi on such a special day like today! I am just SO happy, I think I could just give you a GREAT big hug!
"Dr. Hooves": GAH! (backs away nervously) N-n-no, thanks, y-young lady! I'm...not really in the best of moods for a hug right now! But uh...how wonderful it is to see you up here on such a day like this too, uhhhhhh...
Derpy: Derpy.
"Dr. Hooves": Derpy! Right! That's it! I knew it was something like that! Man, am I ever forgetful at times? Well, uh...let's not waste any more time chatting then, shall we? I...uhhhhhh...(looks down at the number two now attached to his flank) believe it's my turn to go out there and woo the crowd with my...flying...skills? (Laughs nervously) Well, see you round! (Attempts to fly off)
Derpy: (blocks his way) Uh, Doctor? Are you...feeling okay? You...don't seem all to pleased to see me here. Is...anything the matter?
"Dr. Hooves": Oh no! No. Nothing's the matter at all, my dear! Whatever makes you think anything could be the matter with me other than being rudely nudged by that rainbow-maned pegasus behind me just now?
Derpy: Oh, I don't think she did that to be rude, Doctor. I think she was just trying to tell you that you were up next and...(suddenly notices the wings) Huh?
"Dr. Hooves": (thinking in his head) Oh no. What's she spotted now? Hasn't my cover been blown enough already? What else is there about me to suspect? And furthermore, when is she going to just leave me ALONE?!
Derpy: (completley confused at this point) Doctor, y-you...have...wings?!
"Dr. Hooves": (takes a look at his wings) Um...(gulps)...y-yes?
Rainbow Dash: (starting to catch on herself) Wait...wings?! Y-you...you mean to tell me that you were a PEGASUS all this time?! But...Doctor, didn't you...used to be...you know...an EARTH pony?!
"Dr. Hooves": (thinking in his head again) Oh, drat, drat and DOUBLE drat! My disguise's only weakness! I should've realised the real Dr. Hooves was an earth pony from the very start!
Derpy: (struggling to comprehend what's happening) Doctor, I...d-don't know what to make of this! H-how did this even happen to you in the first place? Did one of your experiments go horribly wrong again or something?
Rainbow Dash: (confused) "Experiments"?! What kind of experiment would he be working on that would cause him to suddenly start sprouting wings for no real reason?
"Dr. Hooves": (tries to think of a good lie as best as he can) Well, maybe I just wanted a pair of wings to make myself look good, okay?! Now, if you'll both excuse me, I'm off to amaze the crowd with my amazing flying...skills! Good day! (Attempts to fly off again)
Derpy: (blocks his way again, feeling more suspicious) Doctor, are you...SURE you're feeling okay? You're acting kind of funny. And I don't mean in your usual humorous way. I mean in a rather STRANGE way. That's not like you at all, Doc. What is going on here? Something is DEFINITELY not right with you and I intend to find out what it is.
"Dr. Hooves": Well, would you KINDLY do so AFTERWARDS?! You're making me miss my cue out there!
Derpy: (Eyes him even more suspiciously) Who ARE you really? You're not really Dr. Hooves, are you? You even have a completely different cutie mark! And the Dr. Hooves I know doesn't have wings at all! You're an imposter, aren't you?
"Dr. Hooves": (thinking in his head again) She knows too much! She knows WAY too much!
Lucy Packard: (getting more and more impatient by the minute) Alright, alright, number two, what's the hold up over there? When I say "let's go", I mean "LET'S GO"! NOW, GET GOING! The crowd is getting RESTLESS out there!
"Dr. Hooves": Uhhhh...(salutes again) yes, ma'am! Out of my way, young lady! (Kicks Derpy out of his way) Yah!
Derpy: Whoa-wait-WHOA! (Crashes face first into one of the pillars) OOF!
Rainbow Dash: (gasps) Derpy! (Rushes over to her in her time of need) Derpy, are you alright?! You're not badly hurt, are you?! Come on, girl! TALK TO ME!
Derpy: (looks up at Rainbow Dash in tears) H-he...h-he...HE KICKED ME! (Bursts into loud uncontrollable sobs)
Rainbow Dash: (now comforting Derpy the same way she comforted her) Shhh! There, there, Derpy. It's okay. I'm here for you. Let it all out. You're among friends here. (Turns to face "Dr. Hooves") Now, what the hay was THAT for, "Doctor"?! She was just trying to help and you KICKED her!
"Dr. Hooves": (growls) I'll deal with the two of you later! But for now, I'm outta here! Later, losers! (Flies through the curtains)
Rainbow Dash: Why, that no-good BACKSTABBER! (Looks back at Derpy) Derpy, are you feeling any better now? H-how do you feel? You need something for your head? I-I can rush back home and get it for you real quick for you if you want!
Derpy: (stops her crying) R-Rainbow Dash, (sniffs) that is NOT the real Dr. Hooves!
Rainbow Dash: Hmph. No kidding. I've been hearing a few things about this resident time keeper of yours, but this strange behavior of his is NOT one of them! What are you gonna do about it though? It's nearly time for you to go out there and show the audience your stuff!
Derpy: (sniffs) You know what, Dash? (Puts on a determined face) I say FORGET the Young Flyer's Competition! This is personal! I'm going to follow this imposter and see what he's up to! And then, I've gotta find the REAL Dr. Hooves and warn him what we might be up against!
Rainbow Dash: (unsure what to make of that) Wow, Derpy. I gotta say for an accident-prone mailmare like yourself, you sure are a brave one.
Derpy: (blushes) Thanks, Dash.
Rainbow Dash: Don't mention it.
*Just then, we hear a round of applause coming from outside the room and "Dr. Hooves" comes flying back inside ready to leave this joint. But he won't be getting away from Derpy that easily.*
Derpy: (sees "Dr. Hooves" fly out the back entrance and away from the stadium) I gotta go. Best of luck to you, Rainbow Dash. If anyone's gotta win the Young Flyer's Competition in my place, it must be you. I know you can do it. You just have to believe in yourself. Now, get out there and give it your best shot. See you later. (Flies after the "doctor")
Rainbow Dash: Oh! Um...b-bye, D-Derpy!
*Outside the stadium and back on the ground below, "Dr. Hooves" safely lands back on the ground, checks both ways to make sure he isn't being watched by anypony, and suddenly shape-shifts back into the creature he really is! A Zygon!*
Derpy: (now hiding on top of a cloud above the creature, gasps) A Zygon!
(Note: A Zygon is a creature that is mostly famous for being a part of the infamous Dr. Who TV show. Like changelings, Zygons have the ability to replicate the apperance of another being by means of shape-shifting. They're most recent apperance as of two years ago? Night of the Curious Circus. A My Little Pony and Great Mouse Detective Crossover. Check it out for yourselves as this deleted scene as well as this episode itself takes place right after the events of that fanfic.)
Zygon: (speaking into an organic device that's kind of like a phone) This is informant 1 to Missy. Come in, Missy. Do you read me? Over.
Missy's Voice: (groans) Ugh. Missy here. What do you want?
Zygon: I was unable to find that meddling Time Lord. Repeat. I was unable to find that meddling Time Lord.
Missy's Voice: You know, you REALLY don't have to repeat everything you've already told me as if you were speaking into some walkie talkie! You know that, right? (Sighs) Well, what DID you find then?
Zygon: Ah. Well, I did just so happen to bump into his friend, the pegasus. But I think she saw through my disguise and might be on to me.
Missy's Voice: YOU WHAT?! SHE DID?! (Sighs again) Don't tell me. You forgot to remove the pegasus wings from your "Dr. Hooves" form again, didn't you?
Zygon: Hey, how did you know that?! You weren't even there to see that happening!
Missy's Voice: Uh, HELLO! I am your boss! I practically know everything there is to know about every single one of you minions! We've been through this discussion already! Remember?!
Zygon: Oh yeah.
Missy's Voice: Look, just get out of there! And don't worry about a thing. I've got another plan to take care of that meddling Time Lord and his dopey friend the next time he takes one of his little trips in that TARDIS of his.
Ratigan's Voice: Oh, good! Is it time already for the both of us to get our revenge on our respective enemies like you said you would?
Missy's Voice: (groans again) Ugh! Not yet, Professor! Like I told you before, be patient! The time STILL isn't right yet! Okay?! I...how long have you been listening to me talking on the phone to this Zygon?!
Ratigan's Voice: I don't know. A while maybe? What do you think? I'm BORED! And it's not often a World's Greatest Criminal Mind like myself gets bored like this.
Missy's Voice: (growls) Look, just return to base already, informant 1. I gotta hang up now and give this little sewer rat another lesson on how to be patient.
Ratigan's Voice: Hey! I heard that!
Zygon: Yes, ma'am. (Hangs up and flies away)
Derpy: (still hiding on top of a cloud) Oh no. Whatever's happening doesn't sound good. I've gotta go find the Doctor. (Flies off to find the real Dr. Hooves)
(Again, check out Night of the Curious Circus for more details. It'll explain why Professor Ratigan suddenly started butting into this conversation. Oh yeah. This is also foreshadowing to what happens to the TARDIS in the beginning of A Jungle Adventure by the way. Check that fanfic out too. Spoiler alert: guess who makes a comeback?)
A/N: A Zygon! That explains so much! Hugs for days! Bye for now! R&R everyone!
