Chapter 11: Lost in Time part 1

Rage was out on Sweet Apple Acres helping with the apple bucking. He was having fun spending time with Applejack and they were walking carts back to the barn.

"Nice work Rage! Ya know I bet Bareburn and them would love your help in Appleoosa!" Applejack says with a smile,

"You really think so Applejack?" Rage asks "I mean I am not sure about that... they have been doing that all their lives and... this is my first time trying apple bucking..."

"Well you're a natural Rage you got some great strength in your bukin'." Applejack comments as Rainbow flies by chasing a black cloud. Soon Rainbow returns to the two,

"Ugh... Rage do you mind helping me get that cloud? It is supposed to be in the Everfree Forest." Rainbow asks

"Have fun catching that..." Twilight says walking up to Rainbow and the others her horn a floppy.

"What is goin on here?"Applejack asks

"That is what I want to know..." Rarity says "Look at what happened to my tail!" she cries showing her tail had been cut.

"How is all of this happening?" Rainbow asks

"I do not know..." Twilight says "Have you ever had anything like this happen back on Mobius?"

"No..." Rage says "Of all the things I have done I have never seen anything like this..."

"Twilight Sparkle." Celestia says coming down in a chariot "I know it may sound strange but Time was somehow jumbled up... that is effecting every thing."

"So how do we fix it?" Twilight asks

"The only way would be time traveling back to when each of these events and fix them from there." Celestia says "But there is no way to send anyone back in time."

"Uh I can..." Rage says softly

"Can what?" Celestia asks

"I can traverse time with the power of Chaos Control." Rage sighs "But I would be forced to go alone. Using Chaos Control for a universal travel takes little energy but to time travel I only have the power to send one thing."

"Then Rage can go!" Applejack says "He can fix this."

"I am not so sure its a good idea." Twilight says "Most of this was before Rage came to Equestria and sending him may cause a Time Paradox and that is not a good thing."

"A Time what now?" Celestia asks "I don't even know what she is talking about

"A Time Paradox is when thing from the present messes with the pass ergo screwing the present up." Twilight explains

"And sending me to before I truly existed in this world is dangerous." Rage says

"Rage we have no option! This is something that will get out of hand if we do not do something!" Twilight says

"Very well where will I begin?" Rage asks

"The first things I noticed were from before I banished Luna to the moon. I would say into Star Swirls Age." Celestia says "But be careful!"

"Have a little faith Celestia this is not my first time time travel." Rage says pulling a Chaos Emerald out with his magic. "Chaos Control!" and with a green Flash he was gone.

[Canterlot 1000 years ago]

Rage appears in a small shed and walks out. Canterlot was a small town with the Castle of the two sisters in it. The Everfree Forest was not around!

"Wow... I never thought Canterlot could be so small." he says walking and accidentally running into a white unicorn with a beard who was reading

"Oh excuse me..." he says looking at the red Alicorn

"Oh it's quite alright." Rage says rubbing his head looking at the unicorn "Oh you're Star-Swirl the bearded!"

"yes I am your highness." he says with a bow

"Uh I am not royalty." Rage says 'at least not yet I'm not.' he thinks before continuing "Sorry but I must be going."

"Oh alright but may I have you're name?" Star-Swirl asks

"It's Rage. Sorry if it sounds rude but I have to go, super busy!" Rage says walking off at a high speed to the castle where a loud crash was heard.

"What in Equestria?! Rage asks as the moon comes up. "Something must be up!" he flies into the castle and sees Nightmare Moon strike Celestia

"Oh dear!" he gasps as Nightmare Moon looks at him

"And who are you?!" she asks as a strange star floats behind her identical to the one he saw around Celestia

"Erm..." Rage thinks trying not to do too much conversation "I...lost that star!" he says looking at the one behind Nightmare Moon and she bucks it at him and it hits Rage in the face.

"Take it and leave!" she hollars

Rage had to keep his cool he slowly backs out as much as he wanted to engage the corrupt princess he withdrew careful not to cause a Time Paradox. He exits that castle and looks at the skies "Where do I go now?" he asks himself

"you seem troubled Rage." a voice comes from nearby and Rage turns to see a brown pony with an hourglass cutie mark standing there "Are you looking for the next Time Period with a screw up?"

"Wait a second how do you know my name?" Rage asks him

"Oops where are my manners." he says "Why I am Dr. hooves but everypony just calls me The Doctor Time Travel wiz. I know you're Prince Burning Rage Guardian of Equestria from the year 2014. Now how and why are you here?"

"What do you mean I should be the one asking that." Rage says

"Why I came in my time machine. Now how did you get here? Is there really a spell for prolonged Time Travel?" Dr. Hooves asks

"The Chaos Emeralds." Rage says simply

"Chaos Emeralds? The seven Gems from the Planet Mobius that are linked with The Elements of Harmony?" Dr. Hooves asks

"How did you know that?!" Rage gasps

"I know many things that others have no idea about." he replies "Now back to the matter at hand, you need to fix the time line the same thing I am doing. May I make a suggestion?"

"What is it?" Rage asks him

"We team up, My Time Machine can detect what Time Periods need fixing. However it takes to long to charge on its own. You can amplify it with Chaos Control and use it to traverse us through Time. We can go through time and fix everything together."

"Well at least that way I am not jumping through random hoops so why not." Rage says after a long period of thought "Where is your Time Machine?" Dr. Hooves leads Rage to a small phone booth and Rage looks at it "It's a little small." Rage says

"Oh its much bigger on the inside." Dr. Whooves chuckles opening it and walking in as Rage pokes his head in.

"Oh my he wasn't kidding!" Rage gasps silently walking in. "So where to next?" Rage asks him

"Well that will depend on when the Time Machine catches the next distortion." Dr. Whooves says
