The Ultimate Cliché

Chapter 6

"TYLER! MIND TELLING WHAT IN THE FUCK WE'RE DOING HERE!" Jake's original surprise of seeing Tyler quickly melted away into anger, confusion, and regret. Tyler turned around just in time to let a small squeak, before being tackled to the ground by his obviously annoyed friend.

"Hey Jake! Wait! I can explain!" And for the second time that day Tyler was having a tough time trying the to sound insane with the excuses he was thinking up in his head. At least this time he actually knew the pony/guy/thing.

"WELL START EXPLAINING!" There was a fire burning behind Jake's orange eyes and Tyler could see that very well from the position he was in.

"The genie! He sent us here!" Tyler spat out every word as fast as he could in order to avoid the idea of Jake turning Tyler into a big furry ball with a cracked spike on the end.

"What?!" Jake began to calm down, realizing his anger was being directed to the wrong guy. "but that's impossible he said he would give us what we most desired..." his confusion rapidly began to change back into anger once he started putting two and two together. "Tyler, what do you most desire?" He would have looked calm, even happy, if it wern't for the fact that his ear was twitching, his eyes, like dagger poking into Tyler's chest, and also the not so welcoming smile.

"To live in a land full a magical ponies?" Tyler gave a extremely nervous smile, before running of and kicking dirt into Jake, now sightly darker orange eyes. Jake was about to go chasing after him, but a white field of magic enveloped his head, causing him to black out.

I swear Vinyl, with continued behavior like this your never going to have any friends." Said Octavia, her voice slightly muffled from preforming a facehoof at her friend's relentless addiction to knocking people out.

"Meh, I have my music." Vinyl said, quickly nuzzling her mp3 player, which had been stuck in her ears throughout almost the whole day.

By the time Jake woke up it was nearly nightfall. When he opened his eyes he saw three things, two musicians, clearly irritated by the job of 'baby sitting' Jake, and Tyler. He trashed around for a few seconds in an attempt at punching and- or kicking the poor unicorn. once Jake finished his little tantrum quickly realized that he was tied down. After 10 minutes of arguing he finally gave in.

"Alright what gives?" Jake said reluctantly.

"Vinyl and I want to give Tyler the chance to explain himself, and since you weren't Co-operating, I had Vinyl make you."

"OK, I'm listening." Jake perked his ears up, just to prove a point.

"Well," Tyler gulped his anxiety, knowing that there was no way that Jake could reach him. "I felt the genie poking around in my head knowing exactly what wish, or rather, what two he would pick."

"Why two?" Jake interrupted.

"My first wish was for Equestria to exist, next was to actually go there."

"Hold on, what's Equestria?"

"It's a land from a TV show."

"How come I've never seen the show?"

Tyler's voice shrink to a whisper. "Because it's made for little girls..."

(Basically Jake's reaction to Tyler's words)

After Maybe Another ten minutes of laughing, crying, and many other joyful exercises that only embarrassed the hell out of Tyler, Jake, teary eyed and all, said; "Dude, I actually thought you had a life, oh my god! why watch a kids show!"

"Hey! it's more than just a kids show! And I'm not the only one who seems to think so! Also I wouldn't so the sorta' s-shit your saying right now, considering the disadvantage you have right now." Tyler stuttered over the cuss word it was one of the very rare occasion he used it.

"Come on man really you could have watched some other kids show, like Spongebob or some shit like that, but nope you just had to fuckin' watch ponies! look at them man, they don't even look like ponies, they're just messed up little cretures who can talk! I mean rea-" Jake stopped when he heard the sobbing sound of a certain grey mare. Vinyl was holding her closely, comforting her.

"Is that what we are to you!" Vinyl yelled at him, tears growing in her own eyes. "Some sort of fucking mistake?" Jake tried to shuffle to apologize, still attached to the chair. Jake was a good guy, he never recalled ever being racist before, and here he was, discriminating against another race, human or not, he was still disgusted with himself. he wanted to slap himself across the face, since he couldn't do that he settled with Biting his tongue, in the hope that he could kill the poison being spat by his very own mouth.

"Vinyl, listen I'm-"

"No!" Vinyl took a step away from him. "Don't come anywhere near me you monster!"

"EVERY HOLD ON FOR ONE GODDAMN MINUTE!" Tyler yelled. The situation finally climaxed, leaving in it's wake, dead silence, excluding Octavia's soft sobbing, muffled by Vinyl's shoulder. "Jake, watch your fucking mouth around these ponies, they know English just as well as you and I do. How would you feel if I called you a mistake. And Vinyl," he continued, but in a much softer tone. "If I know one thing, it's that first impressions are important, and Jake just ain't good at 'em, plus don't forget that he's just been pulled through a portal into a whole new world, which was extremely painful having all your joint twisted and molded to look like a pony. And finally, this guy had a loving family, his mom, dad, and little sister, all of whom he loved very much. So i'm going to go on ahead and make the assumption that he may be a little bit cranky."

Tyler held his head glumly in his chair wishing he could go back in time. "Listen, Vinyl, I'm sorry I'm just not used to the idea of life on other planets, I suppose that i should explain to you what ponies look like on earth later..."

"Yeah, I guess i kinda owe an apology to you-"

"No, Vinyl, I discriminated  against you and the rest of pony kind. I don't deserve an apology what I deserve is a slap to the face." Jake looked back down for a few seconds, before to white hoofs appeared in his vision. He looked up just in time to receive a small slap.

Vinyl chuckled softly. "I guess the first you should know about the rule 'love and tolerance'"

"I shall honor that creed for the duration of my stay."

"good, I really appreciate that. And I'm being serious."

"no problem, so, um, could someone untie me?"

"Oh! I almost forgot!" she untied him from the ropes." now it's getting pretty late we should eat now before the bars close."

"yeah a drink sounds good right about now." said Jake roof his hoof where the rope had left a small imprint on his fur. "don't worry I'll pay."

"Aw, thank you, that's very sweet of you." Vinyl smiled, she was happier when she got one back.

"Well!" Tyler butted in "As good as it is to see you two making up, it's starting to drag oooonnn! let's just head to the bar already!"

"Alright, alright lets go."

And off they went to the land of Equestria with new friends and new thoughts to share on the way.
