A Journey of Friends
Chapter 1: The Device
Load Full StoryNext ChapterI kept Attaching wires to the Battery poles, I jerked my hands back as light-bulbs flared on then turned off.
"Perfect." Now i know wasn't an Engineer but for some reason the design was stuck in my damn head, i grabbed his ancient Nokia Phone, my friends bagged me for it but knew it was unbreakable like a tank. I called Jake.
"Hello?"
"Jacob, have i got something to show you!" I Said excitedly.
"What is it?" He groaned, probably slept halfway through the day alread
.
"I'm not sure myself, just... Get over here." I said in my best Mortal Kombat voice. He sighed.
"Fine." He whined. Jacob ended the call and then I called Tyrone.
"Yo?" Tyrone was white even though he had black Parents and as a result he acted almost Stereotypical, it got him in trouble a few times though when he thought he could use the N word.
"Hey man!" Oh yeah, you also had to talk like a African-American to get him to listen, he really pissed me off sometimes
"Sup D?" My nickname, gave him a black eye soon as i figured out, now he goes to clubs saying 'This is My Bro D, He's Tough and strong and will treat you real nice if you play with him', Clubbing wasn't my thing but seeing as he helps me keep my job as a Graphics Designer for his CDs, i owe him three, nights at the club a night.
"Got a weird ass machine here and i was hoping that you'd be able to check it."
"Yeah Imma check it." I hung up. And sighed, that dude is gonna get himself in trouble.
*Riiiinnnnggg*
"Hello?" I question.
"I heard your Brony ass made some kind of weird Machine." He sighed, Dave admitted he was a Brony but most of his friends were nice to him about it, except a few. Guess which one was the exception?
"Yeah, i made a Machine Mike." I Response dryly.
"Cool, i'm gonna check it out, see ya!"
"But-" Mike ended the call. And sighed, He had Good Friends but they had weird Habits, I guess it was a Lesson on the Friendship of magic, He wasn't obsessed he just liked the show and talked on the forums, but people still assumed he was a Brony who really liked weird Porn stuff. Half an hour later Tyrone who was wearing shutter glasses because he said 'I wanted a filter on life' and Jacob were dropped off and within minutes Mike had arrived, he heard the Burnout on his Driveway as he came walking in with Rayban Glasses, saying that his eyes were blinding people due to awesomeness. Pffft.
"Gentlemen, would you kindly follow me?"
"Man, is that a Bioshock reference?" Jake asked
"Team Fortress 2 for the gentlemen and would you kindly was a Bioshock reference." Me and Tyrone were gamers, My Playstyle was always grab the Minigun and Tyrone's was become a Ninja.
"So what is it?" Mike asked as they saw the giant ring device in his shed.
"Not sure, I'm guessing either a Portal Generator or a Weird Sculpture." I told them as they walked into the shed.
"Does it have any buttons?" Asked Mike.
"Yeah 4 buttons, but i can't touch them, too far away." Jacob turned his head slightly.
"So how did you make this? You're not a Engineer." It's true, Dave tried to make a Stand for his PS3, but it broke as soon as he put it on.
"It came to me in a Dream." Mike laughed.
"Came. HAHAHAHA!" Mike was unemployed, i hoped one day he'd turn his life around, his clothes stunk of Cigarettes.
"I think we need to push all the buttons yo." Said Tyrone. In seconds we all pushed except for me who was checking for broken wires.
"Come on guys, have you got all the buttons?" I asked, seeing only three bulbs light up instead of the 4 there.
"Yeah Dude, just got one up there that's way too high, at the top was a Blue Arcade Button.
"Hold on." Dave grabbed a Ladder from the other side of the other side of the shed and walked up.
"Alright dudes, i have no idea what this is going to do so if we blow up the world i just wanna say you guys were awesome, except for you Mike." He was jaw was hanging.
"What did i do?" I Pressed the button as two blue lasers shot from the top of the ring making an X, then the Blue X started spinning.
"Shit!" Said Mike
"Dafuq did you make?!" Yelled Tyrone
"I seriously have no idea!" I yelled back.
It spin faster and faster to make a Whirlpool, and then it started sucking in stuff as my Pot plant was the first to go into the portal. It didn't make a Cracking noise. That's how i knew it was a Portal.
"Run!" We ran towards the Door as it started to suck in fridges. I grabbed the door as i tried to open it.
"Locked!" I tried tackling it but no avail As i started sliding towards the Portal.
"Shit!" I grabbed a Pole as my friends were being dragged into the Portal, i grabbed Jake.
"Dude! Grab onto Mike and Ty!" He complied as the two were slowly being raised higher and higher by the Portal's Suction.
"Any way to turn it off?!" Now yelling over the noise the portal was making.
"I think we press the Buttons again!" He nodded.
"Seems fair!" Jake looked at Tyrone and Mike and yelled:
"When i let go try and hit the button!"
"ARE YOU CRAZY?!" Yells Mike.
"DON'T BE A FOOL SON!" Adds Tyrone.
"Trust me!" Yells Jacon
"3, 2, 1, Go!" I kicked off towards the middle , with the guys trying to hit the buttons. I reach to hit mine butwe fall through the portal as i saw my hands evaporate.
I saw that my body was reassembling as well as Mike who had gotten behind me somehow, and when we were finished we were shot out of the Portal as it closed, I saw Mike skidding his face on the Dirt path and Jake slamming into a Tree, I heard a Goat's Blat as i crash into what i think was a cart.
"Uggggh." Groaned me and the others. At least made it, to where though i couldn't see as i got up and rubbed my head, i turned and saw i had made A crack in the Tree and destroyed a Cart carrying apples. Note to self: Lose weight, more specifically, lose Body mass.
"Where are we?" Asked Mike
.
"Dunno. Dave where are we?" Asked Tyrone, I looked and saw the environment around me, We were on a small dirt track and there was a few trees on the side, there was a few dots flying around in the sky. Too far away to notice.
"I'm not sure, maybe a different dimension?" I muttered, still rubbing my head from the impact of the tree.
"No way!" Said Jake, thinking of kind of Sci-Fi film Dimension. We all heard a small Whistle.
"A Train?" Says a curious Jake
"A Steam Train."I say, We walked towards the noise.
"Are we back in time?" We walked and let our jaws dropped as we saw a city with only a single train track leading to something we couldn't see, A three story building was in the middle of the town as familiar landmarks came into view, A Tree mixed with a Building, a House that looked like it was made out of candy and i looked to my left as i saw a farm with more trees near it than any farm I've ever seen.
"E? Equestria?" I whispered.
"What?" Asked Jake, i looked and saw everyone looking at me.
"You know that show i watch?"
"What show?" Asked Tyrone
"My Little Pony." I said in an excited tone.
"Oh god, we're not-" Anxiously said Mike.
"Yeah, we're in the My Little Pony Universe." Mike grabbed me.
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU WANT US HERE FOR?!" I growled.
"I NEVER WANTED YOU HERE, IF I COULD PRESS THE BUTTONS MYSELF I WOULD!"
Mike let go and talked with Tyrone, Jake looked at me.
"If i could choose a Dimension, i would have!" I yelled at Mike.
"So we're in the Show of MLP?"
"No, we're the universe of MLP, i think every Fan Fic, Episode and Piece of MLP Logic is in this Universe."
"So you're Aliens from a Different Universe? Wowie Zowie!" We all quickly turned to see a Pony with a Pink coat and Darker pink mane behind us, Tyrone and I jumped.
"Wow! You're a bunch of Scaredy Cats! Hahaha!" I recognized her.
"Pinkie Pie?"
"Wow! I scared you and you know my name! Are you a Wizard! Oh, oh, Make a Chocolate milk appear!" Mike walked up to the Pink Pony and kicked it.
"Dumb freaking girly ass Pony." Grunted Mike.
"Ow! You're a meanie!" She started to cry as her hair covered a eye as it went flat, and she ran off crying.
"Dude, you should be careful who you offend here." I warn.
"Pfffft, Why? It's Ponies. What they gonna do? Throw sugar Cubes at me?" We heard what sounded like a jet coming from Ponyville. I took a few steps back as the rest of the group tried to find what was making the noise, i ducked slowly as Tyrone saw a small blue spec.
"What dafaq?" The Dot came down the path towards the group now with a little rainbow line dashed across the blue dot.
"Guys, i think we should run." I warned, Tyrone and Jake stepped back towards me as Mike just looked at us.
"You guys scared of spots now?" Mike Mocked, I Chuckled.
"I'm not scared, i'm scared of what she's gonna do to you." Mike laughed
.
"A girl?! HAHAHAHA!" He laughed as he faced the Blue dot which was only meters away from him, I flinched as he heard the slam of the Blue pony's Fists into Mike, which as i opened my eyes saw that had made a Indent on the path. She then charged towards me, thinking fast i grabbed her Hooves and threw on the ground and pinned her down.
"Lemme go, Lemme go! You'll pay for hurting Pinkie Pie!" Dave recognized her as well: Rainbow Dash , he smiled and pointed to Mike.
"He hurt Pinkie Pie, we didn't." I let her go and she kicked me in the leg as she began to beat up Mike, who quite frankly deserved it, Pinkie Pie had only said hello, though she scared us due to unexplained ability to appear out of anywhere. I Kicked my leg ridding of the numbness of her kick.
"Ow,ow, hey!" Mike said while guarding his face. I looked on with a slight smile as Jacob and Tyrone walked up beside me.
"Damn Blue Horse can whoop his ass."Said Tyrone.
"So who's this Pony?"
"Her name is Rainbow dash, a Pegasus." She continued to hit Mike.
"So Pegasus's have wings, Do Unicorns exist here?"
"Pegasi." I corrected.
"And yes, Unicorns exist here too, they have Magic."
"What kind?" Asks Jacob
"Firing rays, Lifting objects, Growing hair, Teleporting Spells stuff like that."
"Whoa."
"For Real?" Askes Tyrone
"Yeah."
"So none of you have done anything to Pinkie Pie?" Asks Rainbow Dash
"Other than get scared of her Sudden Appearance." Says Dave
"Wha?" Says a Confused Rainbow Dash
"She came out of nowhere and talked to us and surprised us." Said Jake
"She a Ninja?" Asked Tyrone
"I don't think so." Replied Rainbow Dash, looked at Mike who was still dazed.
"I don't wanna have to come and beat him up again. K?" Rainbow told us.
"Yeah Sure." Says Tyrone.
"That may be tough." I sigh.
"Oh well, maybe I'll want to bring the Big guns out and wham him." I Laughed at her Enthusiasm.
"What's so funny?" She asked
"You wanting to hit him, we would let you do that anytime you want, we hate him." Tyrone and Jacob nodded in
Agreement.
"Don't hit me." Mike said groggily as Rainbow Dash flew up and Bucked his Fore head with mike holding his head sobbing.
"So why is he with you guys?" She asked, genuinely curious.
"Because he were his friends." Jacob said quietly.
"How can you be friends with him?!" She exclaimed.
"We weren't." Rainbow dash thought about what he just said.
"Oh, I see."
"Yeah, Pity Friendship." I sadly inform.
"So where are you Stallions from?"
"Stallions?" Askes Jacob.
"Bascially a Male Pony." I whisper to Jacob.
"We're from Straya!" Says Tyrone. Rainbow tilts her head sideways.
"Straya? You mean Manenalia?" Sounds close enough to our Country.
"Yeah." It sounds like Australia.
"Wow. You guys sure travelled far. What were you doing coming here?" I looked at Tyrone and Jacob, they shrugged their Shoulders. Great, i had to keep talking. I thought sarcastically.
"We're Looking to talk with Twilight Sparkle. She might be able to help us." Jake and Tyrone stared at each seeming to give each other a 'Just roll with it' Look, Mike however had other plans.
"Look pony, or Peagaus, I hate ponies, And if you don't talk to me, Hell don't look at me and we won't hit each other."
"Fine." Rainbow flew casually infront of us.
"My Name is Rainbow Dash, Fastest Pony in all of Equestria!"
"Nice to meet ya, I'm Dave."
"Sup, Name's Tyrone."
"I'm Jake and that's Mike the Fag."
"What's Fag mean?"
"It means Shameful back in Manenalia." Mike grunted and glared.
"Ok, that's cool i guess." We walked as Rainbow Dash jumped from cloud to cloud and shot questions at us.
"So what secret project do you need Twlight's help for?"
"Classified."
"Why Twlight?"
"She was supposed to be Queen Celestia's best, we want the best."
"What's that on your wrist?"
"That's a Device to tell time."
"No, the golden thing." Golden thing? I stop as does Everyone else, On my right wrist there is a small Golden watch on my wrist and it shimmered.
"Wow. So cool! How much?" I looked up at her.
"Excuse me?"
"How much for the awesome Bracelet? I'll pay 50 bits, no, No, A 100 bits!"
"Bits?" Jacob asked while looking at me. Looks like the Disc Collection wasn't a waste of money after all
.
"Equestrian Currency. Basically solid gold coins. But don't sell those Watches! They weren't on use when we got here, so maybe there'd a key to why we're here." I saw Mike motioning his gold watch to the Peagsus.
"No mike! We need all four!" His face screwed into a ball, he wanted to to trade in one piece of gold to a 100 solid pieces of gold, but i knew in this universe we needed all four of us to work together.
"When we make duplicates we will send you one, but right now these are Prototypes!"
"Prototypes? As in only ones?"
"Yeah."
"For a bunch of weird looking stallions you guys are smart, well at least most of you." Ignoring Mike. We reached the edge of town, seeing little stores selling Cupcakes, apples and Drawings of ponies, well i it wasn't that bad, i expected the town to crowded due the amount of Characters created by Authors on the hundreds of Fan Fic Sites.
"Well i gotta go stretch my wings and then take a big nap, so Twilight's house is the tree with a Libary in it. You can't miss it."
"Thanks Dash!"
"See ya!" She waved and took off at high speeds. Well at least some things stayed the same.
"So you know where to go Fur-Fag?" Mocked Mike.
"Yeah i do, And you're the fag considering you got beaten up by a horse." We started walking off.
"Hey, it was flying! Bet you couldn't hit it!" He said in anger, I laughed.
"I pinned her, let her go, she kicked me and she then beat you up." Tyrone then burst out laughing as Mike went quiet for a Change. A few extra minutes and we found Twilight's house.
"So who wants to knock?" Asked Jacob but i went ahead because i had the most idea of what to ask her. She opened the door and looked at us slightly scared with a slight hint of Curiosity, Maybe it was my height, I'm not sure..
"Hello? How may i help you?" She croaked, Mike laughed at back while Tyrone tried to shut him up, Jacob put a Nervous Smile and i cleared my throat.
"Are you Twlight Sparkle?"
"Y-Yes, want do you want?"
"We need your help."
"Oh, Ok, please come right in." After having to almost commando crawl my way in, I dusted my feet, while Jacob did it 20 times before he was kicked off by Tyrone as he dusted then walked off while Mike just walked in.
"So what is your kind doing here?" I stand, shocked, People have being here before?
"People have being here before?" I ask, hoping she was kidding.
"Yes, many Humans have come and gone, mostly during Heat." Well she was known for not knowing many social skills.
"Well. that's interesting." I say, trying to sound convincing.
"Not really, now what is it you wanted? I'm kinda busy studying." She was always studying.
"We are stuck in your Universe and want to go back to ours." I say bluntly.
"Well, I can make portals to go through to your World but that only works for Ponies." She seemed to want to stop talking about that Portal Spell.
"What happens if we try to go through." Asked Jacob.
"Your Body gets crushed." Says Twilight, looking at book with Dust and Symbols all over it's Binder.
"Oh." Says Jacob, going back to see what books she has.
"So i can't help you but that device on your wrist might be able to." She pointed at the Golden Watch.
"This?"
"Well, yeah, don't you recognize the symbols?" Not a clue
"Not a clue."
"Well it's symbols, from the old kingdom, the Watch itself looks almost Brand new, she said looking at it, then touching it was popped open and then a smoke trail floated out and Rapidly spun around me.
"Crap!" Yells Tyrone. I start to float up, if this is that Dreamstate Fic, I will choke Twilight.
"What did you do horse?!" Yells Mike, i Cringe after hearing a Book hit his face.
"It's old Kingdom Magic, i can't even stop it!" What?! CRAP!
"Well bugger, Dave's gonna die." says Mike, I cringe and say my last words.
"Screw you Mike!" Then a part of the smoke went into my mouth as i felt weird.
"What do you think it's doing?" I saw Twilight's horn glow Purple as she said:
"He's alive but he's changed somehow." Changed?! The smoke stopped spinning and disapatted as i was dropped by whatever was levitating me , the smoke cleared as Twlight and the others ran up to me.
"Dave are you-" Jacob stopped talking his mouth hung open. Everyone seemed way smaller, except Twlight who was still smaller, I grunted as i got up.
"What?" I look down and see a pair of hooves and my hands were hooves.
"WHATDA?! Someone get me a mirror!" Jacob runs off, when Mike kicks me.
"Great! Just we needed , only guy who fix the portal and now he's one of them!" After i instinctively buck him, i knew what i was, i just disliked the fact i was one.
