[19:05] <NiteBrite> "One of these switches must control the door"

[19:06] <NiteBrite> NB says to Dusty.

[19:07] <NMM> (The shadows in the cafteria draw closer.)

[19:07] * SolidGear is still shaking her horseshoes, moving closer towards the door as the shadows move.

[19:07] * MarissaInaba is banging on the door to the big blue thing

[19:08] <NiteBrite> "Maybe this one?" NB says pointing to the one labeled 'Radio' that he flipped earlier. He still can't see well with broken glasses

[19:09] <Narrator> (())

[19:10] <NMM> Aw, are you frightened? I bet you wish your other friends were here

[19:10] <NMM> The ones who were in this room earlier

[19:10] <SolidGear> "...I..uhm...maybe?" she mutters, still in awe of the fact that this is a princess facing them....and the fact it's really scary.

[19:11] <DustyFeathers> Dusty heard the static echo quietly throughout the TARDIS. "Umm, I don't think it's that one m'dear..." She tried moving closer to him, using his voice as a guide.

[19:11] <MarissaInaba> I'd rather not get eaten by shadow monsters, if it's all right with you. I've grown to enjoy this whole "living" thing.

[19:12] <NMM> Monsters, why don't you recognize them?

[19:12] <NMM> *the shadows move close enough to be seen. They are the mising ponies

[19:13] * SolidGear looks at the shadows, wondering mildly what the Alicorn means, then her eyes go wide as she notices their forms.

[19:13] <NiteBrite> "Oh, okay..."

[19:13] * NiteBrite flips the door switch thus opening it

[19:13] <SolidGear> "Uhm....Marissa....we should really try to get going..."

[19:13] * MarissaInaba isn't really paying all that close attention to the shadows

[19:13] <NiteBrite> Hey it workes

[19:13] <MarissaInaba> *pound pound pund door opens* Gah!

[19:14] <DustyFeathers> "Oh hey, we have some light!"

[19:14] <NiteBrite> Who's there?

[19:14] <DustyFeathers> "Wait, that's the door? Even better!!"

[19:14] * MarissaInaba falls forward into the TARDIS in a comical fashion; quickly grabs SG before shouting "Close the door close the door close the door!

[19:14] <NiteBrite> Who?

[19:14] <NMM> GET THEM!

[19:15] <MarissaInaba> CLOSE THE DOOR CLOSE THE DOOR CLOSE THE DOOR!

[19:15] <NMM> The shadows move quickly

[19:15] <NiteBrite> Okay okay

[19:15] * DustyFeathers quickly flicks the light switch before flicking the door switch.

[19:15] * SolidGear stumbles in just as the door shuts.

[19:15] <NiteBrite> Now which one is the door?

[19:15] * NiteBrite flips the radio on

[19:15] <SolidGear> "Whew...wait, where is this?"

[19:16] * DustyFeathers flips the radio off and the door shut.

[19:16] <MarissaInaba> Okay so apparently SATAN has kidnapped the other ponies and turned them into bloodthirsty shadowmonsterthings.

[19:16] <MarissaInaba> And now they want to eat us.

[19:16] <MarissaInaba> And also this place is bigger on the inside. Huh.

[19:16] <NiteBrite> Really?

[19:16] <MarissaInaba> ._.

[19:16] <DustyFeathers> ".....Even Mach??" Dusty sighed.

[19:17] <NiteBrite> I can't see that well

[19:17] * MarissaInaba has calmed down a bit as of now

[19:17] <NMM> *BOOM, THUD, CRASH

[19:17] <MarissaInaba> No, I don't think so. I didn't see him or Anthrax, and I'm fairly sure they got out safely woah what was that.

[19:18] <NMM> *The ponies outside are attempting to get inside

[19:18] * SolidGear has considerably calmed down, as she's now examining all the mechanical devices in this booth, having not yet noticed how spacious it is.

[19:18] <NiteBrite> (SG will notice a blinking red button.)

[19:19] <NiteBrite> Well we seem to be okay for now, except that we are besiged

[19:19] <NiteBrite> trapped

[19:19] <SolidGear> "Hrrmmm.....hey, anyone else notice this button before?" she asks, drawing attention to the blinking object.

[19:20] <MarissaInaba> Yeah, we're just peachy >:|

[19:20] <DustyFeathers> Dusty puffed out her chest and shook up her feathers. "So... How many ponies were we talking? Enough to beat off with a broom, you reckon??"

[19:20] <MarissaInaba> How many ponies were in the cafeteria?

[19:20] <SolidGear> "Not enough to beat off with a high-speed dash, Dusty...If Mach was here, he'd be overwhelmed."

[19:20] <MarissaInaba> I'm pretty sure there were at least that many.

[19:21] <NiteBrite> (())

[19:21] <NiteBrite> (())

[19:22] <SolidGear> (())

[19:22] <MarissaInaba> Anyway, what's this about a button? Don't push it if you don't know what it does.

[19:22] <NMM> The noises outside become quiet

[19:22] <DustyFeathers> "Well, we can't stay here. We all know this thing is relatively small on the outside, there's no way it can be so sturdy."

[19:22] * SolidGear sighs and then leans on the console she's at, accidentally pressing the flashing button.

[19:22] <SolidGear> "So, we're stuck here for now, huh?"

[19:22] <MarissaInaba> We don't have much of a choice, do we?

[19:22] <NiteBrite> *A monitor flashes to life with static

[19:23] <NiteBrite> *PSSSSSH

[19:23] <MarissaInaba> ._.

[19:23] * DustyFeathers slowly turns her head towards the monitor.

[19:23] <Dr_Moon> He- pssh- H-ell-o?

[19:24] <MarissaInaba> Please tell me you aren't going to try and kill us or something.

[19:24] * SolidGear blinks as she looks towards the monitor, then looks at the console she's at to try and fix the incoming audio.

[19:24] <Dr_Moon> 'Sthis -Psshh -one second *Starts hitting the monitor with a moon rock

[19:25] <NiteBrite> Whose talking?

[19:25] * SolidGear waits, blinking as she listens, then looks aside to DustyFeathers with a slight apologetic look.

[19:25] <MarissaInaba> ._.

[19:25] <DustyFeathers> "Hey, are you behind this?! You better bring back our friends if you are!!" She started shouting at the monitor.

[19:26] <MarissaInaba> And even if you aren't, you definitely are involved somehow. Spill the beans, jackass.

[19:26] <SolidGear> "Uhm...Feathers, I don't think he's responsible for this....wasn't our culprit a Princess?"

[19:26] <Dr_Moon> Hello? Ha it works. And they said it was impossible to build a radio tower with no power and only moon rocks as materia.

[19:26] <Dr_Moon> l

[19:27] * SolidGear pauses, then blinks as she suddenly sits down, eyes wide as she realizes what's going on.

[19:27] <Dr_Moon> Greetings, from the moon

[19:27] <MarissaInaba> ._. why are you even on the... oh whatever. Like I said! What's going on here?

[19:28] <DustyFeathers> She quickly snapped her head towards Solid. "Oh, Really? Whoops..." She kept quiet and looked back towards the monitor.

[19:29] <Dr_Moon> You mean you've never heard the tale of Doctor Moon?

[19:29] <NiteBrite> Nope

[19:29] <SolidGear> "Uhm....I have..."

[19:29] <MarissaInaba> Nope.

[19:30] <MarissaInaba> Oh, hey, SG knows. Care to fill us in?

[19:30] <Dr_Moon> Ah, someone who remembers me.

[19:30] * SolidGear looks mildly nervous at all this, "Sure....but I only know from an old story I'd heard as a young filly. It's been years since then."

[19:31] <MarissaInaba> Huh. Might be better to hear it from the Horse's mouth, then?

[19:31] <SolidGear> "well...I don't know details, but I do know why he's on the moon....and why this booth is so spacious, since it's HIS."

[19:32] <Dr_Moon> Right you are in my time machine

[19:32] <MarissaInaba> ...

[19:32] <DustyFeathers> "Say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!"

[19:32] <MarissaInaba> *a somewhat evil grin slowly spreads across her face* Reeeeeeeally, now?

[19:33] <SolidGear> "As far as I remember, Dr. Moon traveled through time with this booth, for whatever reason, and would appear in certain time periods....what happened is he accidentally went to a time and got trapped on the Moon by a Hero of Harmony."

[19:34] <SolidGear> "I....think it went with the story of Captain Pony? I'm not certain..."

[19:34] <Dr_Moon> Right, I was on a visit to the past to watch the greatest battle in history

[19:35] <Dr_Moon> The elements of Harmony defeating the Wicked Night Mare Moon.

[19:36] <Dr_Moon> But a simple miscalculation put me in the middle of the battlefield instead of on its outskirts

[19:36] <Dr_Moon> Next thing I know, BANG POW ZOOM! STRAIGHT to the moon

[19:36] * SolidGear thinks on this for a second, then nods.

[19:36] <MarissaInaba> Annnnnd... the person outside...

[19:37] <MarissaInaba> That's Nightmare Moon, then?

[19:37] <SolidGear> "She's Nightmare Moon, yes."

[19:38] <Dr_Moon> So Nightmare Moon returns after all these years

[19:38] <Dr_Moon> No doubt seeking an age where those with the power to defeat her are lond since dead

[19:38] <DustyFeathers> "So... She stole this time machine?"

[19:39] <NiteBrite> Well thats not very encouraging

[19:39] <SolidGear> "Sounds like it...hey, Dr., is there any way we can fix your little...uhm...blunder?"

[19:40] <Dr_Moon> The TARDIS is a living being. IF it could've returned to me it would have

[19:40] <MarissaInaba> Well, we've obviously stolen it from her now, so there's that.

[19:41] * SolidGear blinks a bit at this, "Wait...it's a living thing?"

[19:41] <Dr_Moon> *shakes his head* NMM is using her magic to interfere. As it stands, the Tardis can only make short jumps.

[19:42] * SolidGear looks around, rather confused as she's seeing rather mechanical things around the place.

[19:42] <MarissaInaba> Well, short jumps are jumps. We can use it to get awau, right?

[19:42] <MarissaInaba> *away

[19:43] <SolidGear> "All I can think of...is that these Elements of Harmony are important to us...I mean, the Dr. wouldn't have mentioned it if there wasn't a point, right?"

[19:43] <NiteBrite> sounds lik it Marrisa

[19:43] <MarissaInaba> All in favour of doing that? I'm none too pleased about how quiet it is out there.

[19:44] <Dr_Moon> Of course its alive. Thats why it ran away the moment NMM stepped outside.

[19:44] <NiteBrite> Which button gets us out of here?

[19:45] <SolidGear> "Hmmm....Uhm, actually, I think the Tardis does that for us, NiteBrite."

[19:45] <DustyFeathers> "Dr... Before you go, what will happen to our friends?"

[19:45] <Dr_Moon> The elements are key to defeating NMM.

[19:46] <Dr_Moon> Try the blue one next to the wobbly do-dad over there *points with his hoof*

[19:46] * SolidGear moves over to the blue thing he'd pointed to, "Thanks, Dr. And thanks for telling us what to do."

[19:46] <NMM> Purple smoke starts to pry its way through the door

[19:47] * MarissaInaba doesn't notice the smoke

[19:47] * NiteBrite doesn't either

[19:47] * DustyFeathers notices the smoke, however.

[19:47] <DustyFeathers> "OH FOR THE LOVE OF HAY, PRESS THAT BUTTON!!"

[19:48] <MarissaInaba> ._.

[19:48] <Dr_Moon> I won't -pshh- be able to contact you again for a -psshh- few -the connection cuts out to static.

[19:48] <SolidGear> "All righty...." and she quickly hits the button.

[19:49] <Dr_Moon> *the characteristic whir of a Tardis dematerializing can be heard

[19:49] <DustyFeathers> "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you Crown..." Dusty whispered gently.

[19:50] <NMM> RUNNING AWAY! I think not~ the smoke echos

[19:50] * DustyFeathers bats at the smoke with her wings.

[19:50] <Dr_Moon> The tardis shakes as if being held in place

[19:50] * MarissaInaba NOW she notices the smoke. "Crap! Someone get a fan or something!"

[19:50] <NMM> *the smoke is being blown away

[19:51] <NMM> by dusty

[19:51] <DustyFeathers> "You've taken enough ponies as it is!" She kept batting away harder hoping it did anything.

[19:51] * SolidGear blinks at this, then looks aside as Dusty bats away the smoke, "Good idea...hey, Marissa, use your tail to help!"

[19:51] * NiteBrite joins in

[19:52] <NMM> Ow, ow, my mane.

[19:52] <Dr_Moon> *The TARDIS strains against her pull seemingly ready to dash off as far as it can

[19:52] * MarissaInaba is not gonna be very useful in this situation, not having wings. "Yeah! You guys blow her away!"

[19:53] <NMM> *rip* the smoke falls to the floor then vanishes

[19:53] <Dr_Moon> *lurches* then stops

[19:53] <SolidGear> "Huzzah, we made it!"

[19:54] <DustyFeathers> "We'll be back for more, princess!!"

[19:54] <NiteBrite> So where are we now?

[19:55] <narrator> The monitor where Dr_Moon was plays only static now

[19:56] * DustyFeathers suddenly spots a few cobwebs by the door and proceeds to sweep them up, obviously still angered by the recent events.

[19:56] <SolidGear> "So...now that we're safe from the Princess of Darkness and starry nights, what now everypony?"

[19:57] <NiteBrite> I think first thing is to make sure we are safe. He did say this box only makes short jumps.

[19:57] <MarissaInaba> ._.

[19:57] <NiteBrite> Whatever jumping means

[19:58] <NiteBrite> So who wants to volunteer to take a look outside and see if its yesterday out there or something?

[19:58] <NiteBrite> One

[19:58] <NiteBrite> Two

[19:58] <NiteBrite> Three

[19:58] <NiteBrite> NOT IT!

[19:59] <SolidGear> "I have no idea what a short jump means, but let's hope it isn't four years later...?" she says, deciding to flip the doors open.

[19:59] <DustyFeathers> "If nopony else wants to, I will." Dusty spoke in a monotone manner.

[19:59] <MarissaInaba> Pansy. *she goes off to go out first*

[19:59] * NiteBrite pats Dusty on the back

[19:59] <NiteBrite> Thats the spirit

[20:00] <narrator> Outside its the gym. Only its partially destroyed

[20:00] <MarissaInaba> ._.

[20:01] <MarissaInaba> welp.

[20:01] <NiteBrite> What do you see?

[20:01] <MarissaInaba> The gym. It got wrecked.

[20:01] * NiteBrite yells from inside the TARDIS

[20:01] <NiteBrite> WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THIS STATIC

[20:01] <NiteBrite> ONE SEC

[20:01] * SolidGear shuts off the screen.

[20:02] <MarissaInaba> Oh for... I SAID WE ARE IN THE GYM ONLY THE GYM'S BEEN TRASHED.

[20:02] <narrator> A timer appears on the screen, Jump recharge in 1 hour.

[20:02] <SolidGear> "There, now we can hear ya, Marissa." and she moves to the door, blinking as she looks out, "Wow...that's scary."

[20:03] <narrator> the monitor switches to quiet halfway during Marissas yell

[20:03] * DustyFeathers follows Marissa outside. "Do you think we might see anypony soon?"

[20:03] <NiteBrite> Ouch, why are you yelling?

[20:03] <MarissaInaba> >:|

[20:03] <MarissaInaba> Anyway, let's go look for survivors.

[20:03] <NiteBrite> Wait for me

[20:03] <MarissaInaba> I hope no one who owes me money got eaten. that'd suck.

[20:04] <narrator> ()

[20:05] <DustyFeathers> "That doctor said we were in a time machine... Right?"

[20:05] <narrator> ()

[20:05] * SolidGear makes a mental note to herself that they should return in an hour, then exits the Tardis, "Hey, anyone want to go see if our books are still here?"

[20:05] <NiteBrite> right

[20:06] <NiteBrite> Heh, don't want to be late on your homework?

[20:07] <DustyFeathers> "....Not quite what I had in mind, no..." She realised that the gym's current state meant that they weren't in the past, like she hoped.

[20:07] <NiteBrite> Well that sounds as good an idea as any right now. lets go.

[20:07] <MarissaInaba> I think we should prioritize looking for other ponies. Also, I duunno about you but I've got my books in my pack which is... On the floor of the cafeteria.

[20:07] <MarissaInaba> Crap.

[20:08] * NiteBrite leads the way outside, onlyu stopping briefly to walk into the door frame

[20:08] * DustyFeathers went on ahead, not really thinking about any dangers that might've leapt out at her.

[20:09] <narrator> The hallway is even worse, if you look up you can see the night sky outside through the second floor

[20:09] * SolidGear follows along, wondering what the cafeteria would look like now.

[20:09] <DustyFeathers> "By the way Solid, take NiteBrite to his locker, he might have some spare specs."

[20:09] <NiteBrite> I do!

[20:09] <SolidGear> "oh, right..." and thus she heads with NiteBrite towards his locker, hoping his spare glasses were there.

[20:10] * DustyFeathers looked around frantically, there were only two ponies she was interested in finding.

[20:10] <Sweetness> *A shadow passes infront of the moon overhead, temporarily blocking the light. but only for a moment

[20:11] <NiteBrite> hal-> lockers

[20:11] <NiteBrite> Here it is! Good old 123

[20:12] <NiteBrite> *takes the combination lock in his mouth and begins spinning it

[20:12] * SolidGear smirks lightly, waiting until the locker is opened, "Good thing it's still here."

[20:13] <NiteBrite> "on-eh to he right." "Twosh to 'he left awnd" The locker clicks open " 'hee to 'he right

[20:13] <NiteBrite> Best combination ever

[20:14] <DustyFeathers> hal->caf Dusty slowly moved onwards. "Hello? Anypony here??"

[20:14] <Sweetness> *some small rocks and suit sprinkle down on Dusty from the roof as her voice voice shakes it loose.

[20:15] <Sweetness> *suit means dust.

[20:15] <SolidGear> "hehe....it's an interesting one, that's for certain. So, we got a spare set of specs for you here?" she asks, looking inside the locker.

[20:15] * MarissaInaba sticks with Dusty for now

[20:15] * NiteBrite sticks his head in the locker and shuffles some dusty papers around

[20:16] <NiteBrite> Indeed.

[20:16] <NiteBrite> Prepare yourself

[20:16] * SolidGear is already prepared, "Heh, really?"

[20:17] <DustyFeathers> Usually, there would be a giggle from being a dusty Dusty, but not this time.

[20:17] * NiteBrite turns around and is wearing a pair of oversized novelty sunglasses

[20:17] * DustyFeathers looked around even more carefully, keeping an eye out for any hiding ponies.

[20:17] <NiteBrite> They are also hot red

[20:18] <Sweetness> A shadow runs past in the corner of Dusty's vision, disappering behind a pile of rubble

[20:19] * SolidGear stifles a giggle at NiteBrite's glasses, "Interesting glasses..."

[20:19] * MarissaInaba likewise, searches carefully, keeping a close watch on her surroundings

[20:20] <NiteBrite> They're from the pep rally last week. I wanted to wear silly glasses, but with my poor vision.... wel needless to say they ARE prescription

[20:21] <Sweetness> *what appears to be a blond tail is sticking out from behind the rubble

[20:21] <Sweetness> in the cafeteria

[20:22] * NiteBrite digs in his locker some more

[20:22] <NiteBrite> I also had this foam cowboy hat and musical necktie

[20:22] * NiteBrite is looking ridiculous now

[20:23] <DustyFeathers> "Huh??" Dusty looked at the pile of rubble suspiciously... "Hello there? Don't worry, I'm not gonna hurt you..."

[20:23] * SolidGear watches their surroundings, starting to feel cautious, "Why would you need a hat?"

[20:23] <NiteBrite> <.< I like hats.

[20:25] <Sweetness> A curious pony pokes her head up from the rubble and eyes the group suspiciously. Well in a strange way. Okay, her eyes are crisscrossed

[20:25] * Sweetness hides again

[20:25] * SolidGear smirks amusedly at this, "Right....so, get what you need, and let's go catch up to the others? I'm getting worried about them."

[20:26] * NiteBrite closes his locker and twists the lock shut 'just in case'

[20:26] <NiteBrite> Okay lets go.

[20:26] * NiteBrite is still wearing the hat and musical necktie

[20:26] <DustyFeathers> "H-Hey! Don't be shy, m'dear. You can talk to Mama Dusty..." She clops slowly towards the rubble.

[20:28] <Sweetness> "Are you one of them?" a filly's voice asks

[20:28] <Sweetness> I don't want to be a zombie

[20:28] <Sweetness> hal-> caf

[20:28] <DustyFeathers> "I'm not gonna eat you, you're safe with me."

[20:29] <Sweetness> (Rignore move)

[20:29] <Sweetness> *Ignore

[20:29] <NiteBrite> hal->cafe

[20:29] * SolidGear represses a snerk at seeing NiteBrite's appearance, "Right, well, on we go."

[20:29] <SolidGear> hal -> cafe

[20:30] <Sweetness> A blonde pegasus girl with a bubble cutie mark steps out from behind the rubble

[20:30] * DustyFeathers smiles warmly to her.

[20:30] <Sweetness> "Its been a while since I've seen anyone normal around here."

[20:30] <MarissaInaba> (.)

[20:30] <Sweetness> ()

[20:32] <SolidGear> (())

[20:32] * NiteBrite closes the RP

[20:32] <SolidGear> and there we are, folks.

[20:32] * NiteBrite cut log here
