My Little Crazy Adventure
Preparations
Previous ChapterNext Chapter--------Golden Oaks--------
Joseph was looking around Twilight's library for a few books to check out while he was here. Scion was in the kitchen talking to the only other guy he knows, Spike. The topic was Rarity.
"So we went to Rarity's earlier today, it was a bit weird all things considered."
"You went to see Rarity. Why didn't you tell me?"
Scion was confused for a second before he put two and two together.
"Why would you- Oh, I see how it is."
Scion had a quick mental image of what that would look like.
"Bleck, Anyways you never brought it up. You wouldn't of wanted to be there anyways."
"Why not?"
"It's just that it was boring. waited a bit, got our measurement taken, that was the awkward part, and was told how long until we could get something to change into."
"I guess."
Joseph walked in at that moment with books in tow.
"Alright good news, bad news and great news!"
"Alright, whats the good news?"
Joseph put down his books.
"The good news is their writing just so happens to be in our English, I can read books!"
"Bad news?"
"We have no money, and therefor need to get jobs."
He pulled out his pockets to make a point.
"Great news is we have batteries!"
Joseph tossed the GBA at Scion.
"They charge on the magic in the area, but prolonged use can still kill them."
For once something he could be happy about.
"Sweet!"
He flicked the small system on to hear the familiar chime of it starting up.
"Finally something to do while we wait."
Then he notice the empty slot on top.
"Or not, forgot I don't have any games on me."
Joseph grinned as he presented his phone.
"Don't worry, I downloaded a ton before we got here. Wanna play some PvZ, how about a bit of Worms?"
Unlocking the phone Joseph handed it to Scion with the game starting.
"Now I have some books and you have some games. Now let's get going I need to see if the Cakes could use a hand. Plus it's getting late again. Come on guys."
As Joseph opened the door Celestia landed in front of him.
"Oh, or we could get a visit from the princess. Hello your highness."
Joseph stepped aside to let her in.
Celestia came in almost completely ignoring Joseph, and spoke only to Scion.
"Scion, I have new on how to get you home."
In shock on how quickly she was able to do this Scion dropped Joseph's phone. Cracking the screen.
"Hey! Aw man, that sucks."
He received looks from those in the room.
"My phone breaking, not the news. Go on Celestia."
"As I was saying. When I presented your problem to my top unicorns they had a solution, or at least a theoretical solution, in a matter of hours."
Scion was now standing in anticipation at the thought of going back home.
"Really, that fast?"
"Yes, but it will take a lot of magic, more that I alone have. Luna has agreed to help and I came here hoping that Twilight would do the same."
All eyes were now on Twilight.
"Of course, I want to help any way I can."
"Good, then we can get preparations ready tonight and with any luck. Get you back to your world."
"In that case." Joseph butted in.
"We should get home, we have to be ready for tomorrow. Come on Pinkie, Scion you go..Wherever you go to sleep. Celestia, Twilight I hope you have the best of luck in your preparations. Good night."
Joseph went out the door with Pinkie hopping right behind him.
Scion had a lot on his mind, mostly what he planned on doing once h got back to his world. Though he also had to think about how, especially the soon to be loss of his best friend. What would be next? The dimension hop would lead to him getting plunged into a disaster? Would it all be for not..?
"Hey, wait up!" Scion urged, suddenly out the door.
If he was gonna lose his best pal, might as well make some memories of him before leaving in this dimension. It might seem weird at first to do the activities the ponies do, but it would be worth it.
"Scion? You want to come over for the night?" Joseph was very surprised to hear this, but very happy to know.
"In that case follow me my good man, and we shale show you how to have a grand time!"
The trio made their way to Sugar Cube Corner. Stopping just outside the door.
"Alright Scion let me and Pinkie go first, I'll tell you when to come in."
Scion gave a shrug and waited outside for a minute or two before he was waved in. Inside all the lights were out and the atmosphere was surprisingly tense.
"Uh, Joseph?"
Then in a blinding flash all the lights came back on followed by a deafening "SURPRISE!"
"Ahh! What the h-"
Once Scion could see what he saw was something he, somehow, didn't see coming. The whole bakery was filled with ponies of different sizes and colors, oh the colors.
"Scion, even though your going Pinkie and I thought that you should still get a 'Welcome to Ponyvile' party. So before you go we can have a blast and party till we pass out. WHOO!"
The rest of the ponies in the room cheered and started to converse with one another. A few walked up to the best friends with some questions. Reasonable ones like, 'what are you?', 'Where did you come from?", and 'Why are you always wearing cloths?'. Alright the last one may not be so reasonable but still expected.
What they didn't expect was a certain harp flanked mare to come barreling in from the crowd, practically tackling Scion to the floor. "Ah! Joseph get this mare off me!" Taking hold of her Joseph puled her off his poor friend.
"Lyra, what's gotten into you!?" A cream coated mare yelled running into the room.
"I'm sorry, I think she got bit too excited."
"You can say that again, you're Bon Bon right? If you don't already know, I'm Joseph and the man you friend just tackled is Scion."
"Good to meet you, I'd love to stick around and chat but I need to bring Lyra back home to calm down."
Bon Bon began to drag a fighting Lyra out the door of the bakery.
"Well that was sudden."
"Quite. I think I'll cover her questions tomorrow. After you go, don't need that again."
The night went on, more questions and some interesting goings on. Apparently sometime during the night words were exchanged and Joseph was challenged to a cupcake eating contest against Pinkie. To everyone's surprise, even Pinkie's, Joseph was able to keep up for about ten plates, but at eleven he began to slow a bit. By fifteen he was looking a little green. After sixteen he needed to excuse himself, most likely to empty his stuffed stomach. To no ones surprise Pinkie was the winner, being at plate twenty-five when Joseph had to go.
As the night began to turn to morning Scion found himself having more conversations then just answering questions. At around one in the morning the party was dying down as more and more ponies began to return to their homes. at two-thirty Pinkie called it and everyone went to bed, they did have to wake up in a few hours after all.
--------8:30 AM--------
Scion woke up to his internal alarm as he usually does. He saw both Pinkie and Joseph sound asleep, deciding not to wake them he silently went downstairs and out the door. Having time to himself he was able to appreciate the beauty of the morning in Ponyvile.
"I know the sun is being controlled by a magic alicorn princess, but it doesn't look to bad."
With the positive note in mind he made his way to the library.
--------Golden Oaks--------
Twilight, Celestia and Luna were in a triangle around a small, black, pyramid shaped Obelisk. This, of course, was the only necessary item needed. The hard part was having to focus enough magic into the Obelisk in order to open the proper portal. Everypony present was going over the procedure one last time when Scion came knocking.
"Scion, please come in." Celestia opened the door from where she was standing. "We were just going over how we're going to send you back home."
"Oh really, what should I do?" Scion wanted this to go as smoothly as possible, with no complications.
"All we need you to do is think about your home world, your desire to return, all that you miss. It helps to pinpoint what we're looking for."
Scion gave a nod in reply.
"Good, we can begin the process when your ready."
Scion knew he had nothing really holding him to this world anymore, well nothing but Joseph, with that he gained a look of determination.
"I'm ready." This time Celestia gave a nod.
"Then we shall begin."
With that the horns of the two princesses and Twilight began to glow and Scion closed his eyes to remember all he missed back home.
--------Sugar Cube Corner--------
Joseph was still asleep when he rolled off Pinkies bed. Landing face first on the floor immediately waking him and Pinkie.
"Huh, what? I'm awake!" He gave a startled look around not quite remembering where he was for a moment. In the same moment the previous night came rushing back to him.
"Ah now I remember, we had a lot of fun the other night right Scion, Scion?" He received no reply, to his amazement Scion had both woke up and left before him.
"Oh yea. He's going today." Joseph was going out of the room to enjoy a nice breakfast with Pinkie when he noticed something on the floor. It was Scion Gameboy.
"Is that? Oh crap, he'll want this back!"
Grabbing his phone, food, and his friends handheld he rushed out the door for Twilight's.
--------Golden Oaks--------
With thoughts in his mind he could hear the magic do it's, well, magic. The Obelisk in the center of the three began to grow taller, changing from black to a shining white. Through the center a black line made itself apparent seemingly splitting the Obelisk in two. The portal was almost open, with the most important things on his mind the slit began to get wider and wider, his world in sight. When suddenly he heard another sound, the sound of someone in a hurry.
"Scion!"
Joseph bust through Twilight's door, tripping over himself in the process. Unable to control himself he ran into Scion sending both Scion and himself into the now unstable portal. In a binding flash of light the two humans were gone. Leaving nothing but a scorch on Twilight's floor.
"What was that?!" Twilight asked in a panic.
"I believe it was Joseph." All present had a worried expression on there faces.
"Oh, I hope they made it back safely."
